[Xion Zeros]

---

Riot Control opens with the camera crew catching a shot of several members of the Machine exiting from the office of the GZWA Chairman. Every single member has their game faces on as they push the cameramen aside. Veda Scott stops and looks into the camera to speak on their behalf.



Veda Scott: “Tonight is a very special night for the Machine. Tonight shall be a show of force of what the most powerful conglomeration of super powers in professional wrestling are capable of. Every member of the Machine shall be part of tonight’s main event and contrary to popular belief, this match shall not divide us. No, this match shall unite us and make our partnership even stronger.

That is why I’m not going to make it a secret from anyone in the locker room tonight nor among the rest of the GZWA Nation that the Hardcore Monster shall be the first man to enter the Riot Match tonight, going in as the reigning and defending GZWA World Heavyweight Champion.

Prepare yourselves, GZWA Nation. Hide your children and those faint of heart, because what Carnage aims to do in order to retain his title for the Machine and to walk out of Riot Control STILL GZWA World Heavyweight Championship will make the Holocaust look like an episode of Sesame Street in comparison. 

Be afraid, GZWA Nation... Be VERY afraid."

Prof. X: It is time for the opening match to kick off Riot Control and what an opportunity for one of these young ladies here tonight.
The Carter: It's definitely an opportunity for me to size all of the up.
Francine: Too bad they can't do the same so they won't be so disappointed if you actually get to take one of them home with you.
The Carter: That's cold blooded. I know how to please...
Francine:...you know I actually agree with you. You do know how to please. You please me every time you sit there quietly.

Due to the length of the Riot Control Main Event the GZWA Total Vixens theme begins to play and all the Vixens featured in the opener come from backstage one by one and line up at the top of the entrance ramp. They each hit their signature pose and Milani Chilombo begins to lead the pack down to the ring. Santana stares at Milani and you can see the hunger in her eyes, she owed her and tonight she intended to collect. Didgitz walks down the ramp like a boss and enjoys the hold she has on the crowd. Olivia waves to the crowd as she saunters to the ring. Maryse starts off next with her coat flowing in the breeze, she throws her hands up and then taunts the audience while rolling her eyes. She turns and looks behind her at Alex McFly and moves her hand to flick her coat back right into Alex's face. Alex looks annoyed but keeps her cool while shaking her head at Maryse as if to say "it's on". The Vixens stand in the ring staring at one another and the bell sounds. The Vixens rush one another and hair begins to fly after the impact of the blows begins to take effect. After several hard forearm shots, Olivia is whipped into the ropes by Didgitz who plays no games and follows through with a spinning heel kick. The crowd cheers as Alex dashes towards Maryse who instantly runs behind the referee using him as a shield before reaching out and slapping Alex in the face. Alex grabs her face and glares at Maryse before taking her down with a Thesz press and wailing into her much to the delight of the crowd. Alex stands up and roars as the crowd gets behind her. Seizing the moment, Didgitz grabs her and plants her with a belly to back suplex. On the other side of the ring, Milani is delivering body kicks to Santana in the corner. She grabs her arm and whips Santana to the opposite corner and takes off running after her going for a flying clothesline but Santana wisely moves and Milani collides with the turnbuckle. Santana grabs Milani as she bounces out of the corner and plants her with a sitdown jawbreaker with splits. As she stands she stares down at Milani with a smile on her face. As she goes to turn, she turns right into a hard spear from Olivia.

Prof. X: These girls aren't messing around in there tonight. They came here to fight.
The Carter: Mmm mmm mmm and boy do they look good doing it.
Francine: We knew this one was going to be heated these girls have been taking shots at one another with various interviews and Tweets that have been dripping with animosity.
Prof. X: Who is your favorite to win here tonight?
Francince: It's still anyone's match.

In the ring Maryse and Didgitz are taking turns delivering kicks to Santana in the corner. They grab her and whip her across the ring and she ducks underneath their attack and rebounds off the ropes with a double clothesline of her own that sends the Vixens to the mat with force. Olivia is trying to toss Milani over the top rope who is hoisted up on her shoulders but Milani is hanging on for dear life and kicking her legs. She reaches down and throws a hard elbow to the face and follows up with another until Olivia is forced to drop her. Meanwhile Santana reaches down to grab two handfuls of hair and pulls Maryse and Didgitz to their feet. They deliver dual chop blocks that send Santana to the mat. Milani delivers a kick to the gut of Olivia and follows it up with a right hook that sends her reeling into the ropes. Her body lies limp on the ropes and wasting little time Didgitz delivers a superkick that sends Olivia over the top rope to the floor creating the first elimination of the match.

Prof. X: And there goes Olivia for the first elimination of the night. What a devastating superkick from Didgitz.
Francine: She warned everyone that she was not going to be playing around tonight and she is definitely delivering.
The Carter: Can I get mines delivered with a big red bow?
Francine: You disgust me on so many levels!

Didgitz gets little time to relax as Alex who is firing on all cylinders grabs her from behind and tosses her overhead with a release German suplex. Maryse is checking her fingernails in the corner and has to scoot out of the way of Milani who is thrown into the corner by Santana. Milani having none of it grabs Santana and reverses the positions and begins throwing body punches that pummel Santana. A weak Santana is pulled out of the corner by Milani who grabs her to plant her with a snapmare neckbreaker. The camera switches to Alex who is repeating uppercut strikes to Didgitz who is wobbling and Alex turns and runs to the ropes before delivering a running big boot that sends Didgitz crashing into the ropes. Ever the opportunist Maryse chooses this time to smash Alex in the back of the head with her elbow much to the displeasure of the crowd. Maryse grabs Alex and spins her around and grabs her and plants her with a forward Russian leg sweep. Maryse sits up laughing and throws her hand up at the audience before mounting Alex and pulling her into a camel clutch. Maryse arrogantly laughs and shoves Alex's face into the mat before slapping the back of her head repeatedly and then pulling her back into the camel clutch. Milani pulls Santana up from the mat and kicks her in the gut and signals for the end. She begins going for Street Sins (Stunner) but is shoved away by Santana. Santana digs deep and takes off running grabbing Milani in the Hell Hound (running bulldog). Santana wisely lies on the mat to catch her breath and attempt to recover. She drags herself to the corner and rests until her It is short lived as Didgitz grabs her and pulls her up and sets her up and hits the XDT (Springboard Moonsault DDT). The crowd cheers wildly and begins chanting her name over and over.

Prof. X: Did you see that? What athleticism...what power.
Francine: That is wrestling at it's finest. Still want that gift wrapped with a bow Carter? I don't think you'd survive it personally.
The Carter: That wasn't exactly the present I had in mind.
Francine: And here I was all excited for you to get your present haha.

While Didgitz engages the crowd and gets them pumped up, Milani grabs the downed Santana and pulls her to her feet. This is the opportunity she had been waiting for and she drags her to the ropes and grabs her face and mockingly waves good bye to her. She backs up and delivers Karma (Mick Kick) that sends Santana over the top rope to the floor. Santana hits the floor and angrily pounds her fists on the floor as Milani laughs at her and says "You mad or nah?" As the camera switches it catches Alex now in control of Maryse as she grabs her arms and delivers a double underhook suplex. Alex sits up and runs her hands through her orange hair and sees Milani gloating and taunting Santana and she's had it with these Vixens and their disrespect and rises to her feet before grabbing the back of Milani's head and forcefully pushing her to the turnbuckle before ramming her face first into the turnbuckle. She repeats this two more times before hooking the arms and planting her with a full nelson bomb. Maryse is in the corner and Didgitz grabs her and pulls her to her feet and Maryse holds her hands up and screams "First we eliminate them and then we fight yes? Didgitz contemplates this and Maryse continues holding her hands up and backs into the corner while shaking her head no. Didgitz turns and sees Alex returning to her feet and she rushes her and grabs her and hits a rolling snap suplex. She doesn't release the hold and pulls her up for a second suplex and keeps her grip and pulls her back to her feet for a third rolling snap suplex. Maryse smiles in the corner and points at Alex laughing. She yells at Didgitz "Pick her up". Didgitz rolls her eyes and decides to show Maryse that she does not take orders from her and picks up Alex and shoves her directly into Maryse. The crowd cheers and Didgitz spins around and raises her arms and does not see Maryse catch the oncoming Alex and shove her head first into Didgitz as their heads collide and the impact sends them both to the mat. Maryse dusts off her hands and checks her nails.

Prof. X: Well that certainly didn't go the way Didgitz planned. She went to show Maryse who was the boss in this match and what a collision.
The Carter: Oh my goodness, do you think she needs mouth to mouth?
Francine: The only thing she needs for you is a restraining order. Isn't it past your feeding time? Where is your handler?

Milani wisely used this time to recover and she spins a stunned Maryse around and hits the Street Sins (Stunner). A limp Maryse lies on her back and Milani place her Timbaland boot on her neck choking Maryse who stuggles to breathe and kicks her feet while grasping at the foot. Milani releases the choke and stares down at Maryse while taunting her. Unaware that the crowd is cheering for someone other than her she keeps it going and a sour Santana rushes through the crowd and hops the barricade and slides in the ring. She spins Milani around and decks her with a pair of brass knuckles that sends her straight to the mat. Didgitz and Alex slowly pull themselves to their feet, Santana pulls the limp body of Milani to her feet and shoves her into the ropes. Didgitz takes exception to the outside interference and grabs Santana's arm as she was attempting to hit Milani again with the brass knuckles. An irate Santana kicks her in the stomach and plants her with a DDT. The referee gets in Santana's face and motions for her to leave the ring. Alex decides a win is a win and pulls Didgitz up off the mat and tosses her through the second rope and maintains her hold on her neck as she brings her back into the ring via a rope-hung DDT. Alex wastes little time and stands up and pulls Didgitz onto her feet and clotheslines her over the top rope to the floor.

Francine: If I was still squaring up with the Vixens I'd get up and teach Santana a lesson. How dare she ruin a perfectly good contest because she can't handle being eliminated in a match. Losses happen...DEAL WITH IT!
Prof. X: With these non-disqualification matches, anything can happen.
The Carter: That's straight up gangsta right there though. She is knockin em' out with brass knuckles.
Francine: She's a straight up thug! Let's see her survive a real match with real wrestling skills and then we'll talk.

Santana is not done yet and grabs Milani's foot. As Milani spins around to confront her she does not see the creeping Maryse sneaking up behind her and she grabs a handful of her sweatpants and tosses her over the top rope into the arms of Santana as they both hit the floor. The two begin rolling around on the outside for the top position of dominance to pound the face of the other and Maryse turns around and is now face to face with Alex McFly. The two stare at each other as their rivalry has been building up to this point and Alex is beyond tired of Maryse taking shots at her whenever she gets an opportunity. She smiles at her and shouts "Let's go Princess!". Maryse throws her hand up at Alex and she leans on the ropes and bends over flipping her hair before looking at Alex and smirking and winking her eye. Alex claps her hands and walks over to the ropes and delivers a hair flip of her own. An angry Maryse shreks and rushes Alex and is met with an arm drag. Maryse gets up and angrily rushes her again only to be met with another arm drag. Maryse stands up and adjusts her shorts while glaring at Alex who is laughing at her.

Prof. X: And you gotta believe "The Fire-Bred Babe" is just toying with Maryse here.
Francine: It seems the cat doesn't like it when the toy is dangled in front of her face. This is when Alex can take her out while her head is not in the game.
The Carter: That's fine by me, I will definitely nurse Maryse back to health.

Maryse walks to the center of the ring and holds her hand in the air motioning for Alex to grab her hand to do a strength test. Alex reaches up and grabs Maryse's hand and Maryse holds up the other hand and before she can throw her cheap shot, Alex blasts her in the stomach with a knee and does it again and a reeling Maryse is hit with an insane discus lariat that sends her to the mat. The crowd cheers and outside the ring officials have finally separated Santana and Milani who are screaming obscenities at one another and threatening intense bodily harm as they are bringing dragged away flailing and trying to get back to fight one another. Alex grabs Maryse and begins pulling her up to her knees Maryse angrily knocks her hand away and throws an elbow smash to the midsection. Maryse quickly stands and rakes at the eyes of Alex who grabs her face in pain. Maryse quickly grabs her from behind and rakes at her back and as Alex grabs at her back, Maryse throws an elbow to the back of the head. Alex launches forward with the impact but refuses to go down. Maryse grabs her hair and yanks her head back and Alex musters what strength she has and knocks the arrogance out of Maryse with a Jawbreaker. Maryse clutches her face and Alex rolls over and pulls herself up to her knees while catching her breath.

Prof. X: Maryse is hurting here and I believe Alex needs to wrap this up now if she wants to win.
Francine: Now this is how you open a PPV.

Alex makes it to her feet and stumbles a bit before bending over and signaling for Maryse to get up. Maryse slowly begins to rise and Alex takes off to deliver a big boot. Maryse sees her coming and sidesteps and uses her momentum against her and sends her crashing into the ropes. Alex's leg bounces off the rope in the split position and Maryse grabs her shoulders and spins her around while gripping the neck and this ends with a French Kiss (Snap DDT). An disoriented Maryse out of instinct goes for a pin and gets angry when the referee shrugs his shoulders and does not count. Maryse hits the mat frustrated rolls over and mushes Alex's face. She pulls her to her feet with some difficulty as Alex is out and grabs her tights and tosses her over the top rope. Maryse clutches her chest and looks over at the referee and wags her hand at him to come and lift it in victory.



Prof. X: And Maryse wins her return match to the GZWA.
The Carter: Oh my I just want to go up there and help her celebrate
Francine: Why ruin her night with a threat like that?
Prof. X: Speaking of ruined nights, a lot of nights were ruined up there tonight and you have to believe that some bitter rivalries are going to come out of this match.
Francine: You better believe it. Nothing was solved up there tonight and things are only going to get worse from here.

MiMi approached Amanda and greeted her half-sister with a warm embrace.

"I hate that things keep us busy but I wanted to wish you luck out there tonight against that monster of a woman."

With a smile in her face Amanda looks at her sis. Even though she's still worried, she tries to be confident.

"Thank you, and I hope you will win too."

She hugs her sister.

"I really hope everything becomes good."
She nodded, "I hope everything works out for the best as well. If you need anything don't hesitate to ask. I'm the reigning champion but I still have time for family. I still owe you for saving me from myself back in ZXWWF."

Amanda smiles and takes Mimi by her hands.

"Well, there might be something. I mean you know that Serai promised to let Kiara go, but if she doesn't, well, then you might talk to her. Maybe she listens to you."

As she says this, she has tears in her eyes, but she wipes them away.

"And please take care that Rose doesn't come to the ring. I don't want to see her get injured."
Mariah took Amanda's trembling hands into her own and assures her, "I promise. I'll do everything in my power to make sure your family is reunited, safe and sound.

Be strong for Kiara, Amanda. Be that fierce warrior that I know you are - that' you have always been but have locked away since embracing motherhood. It's okay to fight back to protect those you love."

A weak smile comes into her face. She swallows and then she can continue.

"I will ...I will fight for my family, even if it's the last thing I do in my life."

Now she seems to be a bit more confident.

"Well, I didn't had much success during the last years, but I still know how to fight. They will see what it means to mess with me and my family and that it's a deadly mistake."

"That's better. I have a request Amanda, but you're not going to like it."

"So what is it?"

Now Amanda is curious about what comes next.

"Hit me. I want to see if you still got your edge."

"What? Do you really want this?"

Amanda hesitates, but then she slaps Mariah, but not very hard.

Mariah gets annoyed, "What was that? Give me your best shot. Hit me like you're going to hit Serai."

Amanda really doesn't like that.

"But you're my sis and I love you."

But she also doesn't wanna annoy Mariah even more. Slowly she clenches her fist. And then she punches Mariah into her belly.
Mariah's not satisfied by this blow as it's barely harder than the last. She slaps Amanda across the face, hard enough to bring her down on her knees.

"Amanda, I love you too. As your big sis, I'm doing my part to make sure that you're ready for this match. You can't give this woman any mercy or hold anything back. She's trying to take your happiness from you - everything that you went through all of the painful years of your life alone without that you thought you could only find in sex and drugs. She's trying to rob you of everything. Do you think she's going to stop there with Kiara? She's going to go after Rose, Mom, and even Jaser, Amber, Dash, and me. Do you really want that? Show me how you're going to protect your family."

Amanda holds her cheek and she is shocked as she hears what Mimi says, but she knows that she's right. For a moment she still hesitates, but then she steps back and next comes a kick to Mariah's ribs. This time it's pretty hard and as mariah stumbles, the next kick follows to the side of her jaw. Mariah goes down and Amanda looks at her.

"What else I will do to her I won't show you."

She points at her brass knuckles in her pocket. And then she helps Mariah up.
Mariah refuses the help from Amanda and stands up on her own feet, clenching her jaw. "Not bad, but I suppose that should work. I'm not one to resort to primitive means of offense, but whatever gets the job done."

Now Amanda smiles a bit.

"I'd prefer a fair fight too, but if nothing else helps ...well, then I won't have remorse. Oh, and she requested such a match. I just wanted a normal one. So nobody can blame me when it becomes dirty."

"Do what you have to do. She knows as well as you do what she agreed to. After all of this mess is over we'll all go out together and celebrate OK?"

A broad smile comes into Amanda's face.

"Oh yes, this we will do."

She hugs her sister again.

Earlier this evening, GZWA's cameras caught up with the reigning Vixen Champion shortly after her arrival to the arena. She invited the crew to follow her to her locker room. She opened the door and set her bags down before facing the cameras.

Mariah smiled at the cameras as she put the championship down on a nearby bench took a selfie. 



"I'm sure you're dying to hear my thoughts going into tonight's title match. To be quite honest, I'm done talking about my opponents. I know what to expect - I am no stranger to these women, but will I underestimate them? Not at all. Instead, I'm going to remind my opponents about who I am.

I am Marisol Francesca Cruz, the eldest of the Cruz siblings. You all know me as the Showstoppin' Senorita - Mariah. This isn't my first rodeo. If this was the old me, I would be an emotional wreck, worrying about everything underneath the sun about this match. Am I good enough? Am I going to let these people down? Do I have what it takes to win the big one? No, not anymore. I proved all of the skeptics wrong when I defeated Raven for this title and continued to do so as I defeated every obstacle that stood in my way when I put this title on the line throughout the latter half of 2015 in my open challenges. I'm not afraid of losing this title. I'm afraid of the women in our division losing the competitive fire to chase after this at the best of their ability. I'm afraid of these women forgetting the legacy that our division has to uphold. 

When GZWA first opened it's doors, I was right there at the forefront as one of the first generation women to this division, along the likes of Karen Beth Zurich, Lise Starr, and Tia Brooks. We scratched and clawed our way to get this division off the ground from the likes of it consisting of a handful of women to present day where there's more of us on the roster than the men. I'm thankful that I work for a company that doesn't treat women's wrestling as a sideshow attraction. We compete with the men as equals and are respected as athletes, despite our various backgrounds prior to coming here. As a veteran of this division and of women's wrestling, I have a duty...no, a responsibility, to educate my peers and the rest of the wrestling world that this title is a prize worth fighting for.

I don't come from an enormous, yet famous family of wrestlers. I'm not just a pretty face. I'm not here just to use wrestling as a stepping stone for an acting career or to become a ratchet reality TV star. I'm not a trend setter, but I want to be a revolutionary with my reign as Vixen Champion, ushering in a new era of greatness for this division - not just for myself but for all women on this roster. 

One could argue that in my crusade for greatness for this division that I'm devaluing the prestige of this title. I beg to differ. This title should be at the forefront of this division's greatness. They should go hand in hand. I held the open challenges as a kickstarter to this movement. As long as I have this title, I want to continue to use it to elevate this division, not for me, but for everyone in this division. I hate to sound like a broken record, but I'm going to keep repeating myself until my vision becomes reality.The world deserves to know that GZWA has the best female athletes on the planet in the Vixen division. As long as there's breath in my body I'm going to continue fighting to showcase that fact.

Like it or not, I'm the Vixen Champion. I'm here to fight. There's not a chance in hell that I'm giving up on my dreams.

With the Showstoppin' Senorita holding the gold, you're definitely guaranteed for one HELL of a show."

*** Best of Three Series - Match #2 ***
"The Iceman" Stefan Raab vs. "Straight-Edge Juggalo" Ryan Kendrick



Prof. X: This next one is definitely one that everyone saw coming. Two men each vying for a dominant place on the roster and looking to make a name for himself.
The Carter: Call this what it really is X, a dick measuring contest.
Francine: Well we all know you'd lose that fight if you were up there Carter.
The Carter: Ha Ha Francine. I've never received a complaint before, care to try it out?
Francine: Disgust is not the proper word for what I feel right now.

Cold as Ice by M.O.P. signals the entrance of "The Iceman". He comes through the curtain wearing his blue and white mask with white hair. He begins making his way to the ring and high fives the fans on the way to the ring. He begins climbing the turnbuckle as per his usual but unlike every other time, Dedicated by Linkin Park begins to play and the "Straight-Edge Juggalo" sprints down to the ring and slides underneath the bottom rope. He quickly rises to his feet and begins making his way towards Raab but is stopped by the referee. Raab stares at him and shakes his head in disbelief as the disrespect is beyond annoying to him at the moment.

Prof. X: I don't know what's going to happen up there tonight but one thing is certain the series will either be won or we can look forward to one more clash between these titans.
The Carter: That was real clever X, that play on the movie title.
Francine: Thank you Captain Obvious.
The Carter: I think you like me Francine and that's why you are always so "frisky" with me.

As Francine gags, the bell sounds and the two men make a beeline for each other and lock up in the center of the ring. Kendrick gains the upper hand and makes a quick transition and pulls Raab in for a side headlock to which Raab grabs his waist and pushes him off. The two lock up again to the delight of the crowd and it is Raab who makes the quick transition to a rear waist lock and attempts a release German suplex but Kendrick simply uses his momentum and lands a perfect backflip. Kendrick smirks at Raab who charges at him with a running clothesline but Kendrick ducks underneath and as Raab bounces off the ropes, Kendrick bends over telegraphing a back body drop and pays for it with a hard kick to the chest from Raab. Raab hits him with a European uppercut that sends him reeling and Raab backs up and blasts him with a spear. The audience cheers the powerhouse Raab and Kendrick clutches his ribs in pain and rolls around on the mat. Raab wastes little time and quickly throws a kick to the back and then he moves down and stomps on the ankle to get it nice and tender.

Prof. X: It looks like he's softening him up for The Ice Lock (Ankle Lock) to finish this match.
The Carter: I can't knock his hustle, this is a solid strategy.
Francine: There is something that is final about making a person submit versus a win via pinfall. A submission is like a nail in the coffin that screams I bested you.

Raab pulls Kendrick to his feet and goes to suplex him but Kendrick blocks the move and delivers a snap suplex of his own. Kendrick attempts to kip up but his ankle is a little tender and he doesn't land so well. Like a shark that smells blood in the water, Raab rises to his feet and drops his elbow right on that ankle and repeats the process two additional times. Kendrick grabs for the ankle but Raab grabs it and drags Kendrick to the ropes and places the ankle on the ropes before jumping up and crashing down on the ankle with his weight. Kendrick cries out in pain as Raab uses the ropes to stand on the propped up ankle as the referee begins his 5 count . Raab sneers and releases the ankle before the referee hits the count of 5. The referee scolds Raab who innocently holds his hands up in the air. Raab again goes to grab at the ankle and is met with a kick that sends him flying through the second rope and onto the floor. Kendrick winces in pain and rotates his body and pulls himself up with the assistance of the ropes. He tests the limits of his ankle but he also knows he need to keep this momentum going in his favor and he leaps in the air and does a diving guillotine leg drop over the top rope to Raab below. The crowd begins chanting at the sight of the high flying move.

Prof. X: Kendrick really needed that move to shift the momentum of this match but with that ankle I don't know how long he'll be able to keep it.
Francine: Good point X, that ankle has taken quite a beating during this match and I don't know how much longer it will hold up.
The Carter: If "The Iceman" has his way, he will snap that ankle in half.
Prof. X: Well Kendrick had better deliver he is the one who told Raab that he was too nice of a person a few days ago and it looks like Raab took that to the heart.
The Carter: You gotta be careful when you flapping them gums because you don't know what demons somebody has suppressed that you are about to unleash upon yourself.

Kendrick knows from all his training that he does indeed need to keep this momentum going and he rolls to the barricade and uses it to assist him to his feet. Raab shakes it off and stands up only to be meet with The Equalizer (throat punch). Kendrick grabs his opponent and manages to pull off a half-nelson suplex. He lifts up the ring skirt and searches under the ring and grabs a roll of industrial tape that is used for heavy duty projects and wraps the tape around his ankle quickly. Raab does not want this to happen and quickly rises and charges only to be met with a drop toe hold that manages to have his head bounce off the steel steps. He quickly grabs at his mouth and Kendrick finishes taping up the ankle and rises on his own accord and begins walking around to test it out. Satisfied he turns his attention to Raab who is in a lot of pain and wiggling his tooth. Kendrick kicks him squarely in the face and slides in the ring and back out of the ring to break up the referee's 10-count. Kendrick pulls Raab to his feet and whips him into the barricade near the timekeeper. He takes off running and blasts Raab in the face again with a running enziguri. He checks the tape which is still secure but not as tight and pats his ankle. He pulls Raab up and tosses him in the ring with his head still hanging underneath the ropes. He stands on the apron and looks down before hitting Raab with a leg drop.

Prof. X: This match is definitely back and forth and I have no clue who is going to win. Raab's face has to be hurting right now. Those steel steps are quite unforgiving. Watch this replay.

A slow replay is shown of Raab getting taken down with the drop toe hold and hitting the steel steps face first.

The Carter: After something like that you have to have a face that only your mother will love.
Francine: Something you know about quite well I'm sure Carter. I'm curious has your mother ever told you that she loves your face?
The Carter: You a weird chick Franny, why would my mother...you know what nevermind. Just call the match.

Kendrick hops back onto the side of the ring and steps in between the ropes. As Raab begins to sit up he takes off running and hits a running, jumping neck snap to his bent-over opponent. Raab falls back into the mat but the tape gives way as Kendrick goes to land and he cries out in pain and rolls around clutching his ankle after his failed landing. Raab sits up again refusing to stay down and slowly raises himself up to one knee while breathing heavily. Kendrick still in pain lies on his side trying to reattach the tape tight around his ankle again. While he is doing this Raab makes it to both feet and stumbles around the ring attempting to regain his bearings. He shakes his head as if shaking off the daze and turns to look at Kendrick and sees the tape being tightened. He rushes over and delivers an elbow drop to the ankle. Attempting to shift the momentum to his favor, Raab pulls Kendrick to his feet and delivers a spinning spinebuster that knocks the air out of Kendrick. Raab begins kicking away at the ankle before reaching down and tearing the tape away from the ankle area completely. He rolls the tape into a ball and throws it directly into Kendrick's face. Raab now completely in control pulls Kendrick to his feet and spins him around and wraps his arms around his waist and easily hits The Frozen Pin (bridging German suplex). The referee drops down and slides into position and his hand slaps the mat, 1...2...Raab releases the pin and the referee stops the count.

The Carter: What the heck was that?
Prof. X: We knew this was not going to be for the weak at heart, we knew it would get brutal but he seems like he wants to make one statement...pain.
Francine: Carter why don't you go and get on his bad side so I can watch you get some of that pain that is being dished out right now.

Raab reaches down to pull Kendrick up and to his surprise he is rolled into a small package pin that actually manages to throw him off his game enough to get a 2 count from the referee. Raab looks at Kendrick with disbelief but he respects the willpower this man has to keep going. Kendrick raises to his knees as Raab picks himself up off the ground and he begins rushing Kendrick who times it perfectly and delivers a beautiful fireman's carry that sends Raab to the mat. Kendrick wastes little time and reaches into his tights and inserts a capsule into his mouth and bites down on it. Raab not wanting to lose momentum quickly rises and grabs Kendrick and spins him around only to be blasted with the Red Mist (Red Poison Mist). He staggers around blind and Kendrick reaches down and pulls what little strength he has left and begins the Warrior's Anthem (Multiple Ultimate Warrior Style Clothelines, followed by a Gorilla Press dropped into a Forward fireman's carry slam). His ankle gives way and he falls and drags himself over to throw his arm over Raab. The referee gets to a two count and his hand is nearing the third slap when Raab lifts his left shoulder off the mat. The crowd buzzes at the back and forth action. Kendrick lies on the mat with his hands in his hair as he begins to think about what it is actually going to take to win this match. He attempts to get to his feet first but he stands up at the same time as Raab. Raab grabs Kendrick by the neck and Kendrick squirms and manages to kick him in the gut twice before executing a judo hip toss. Kendrick stands up and attempts to put weight on his ankle only to have Raab chop block his leg and send him to the mat. Raab wastes no time and grabs at the ankle, he locks him into The Ice Lock (Ankle Lock) and Kendrick struggles to hold on but eventually it is too much and he is too far from the ring ropes and is forced to tap. The ring announcer announces Raab as the winner and he releases the hold.



After the referee raises his hand in victory, Raab being the caliber man he is extends his hand to Kendrick and pulls him up off the ground and holds his hand out for a shake to signify a good match. Kendrick stares down at the hand for a moment before eventually grabbing the hand. Raab goes to release and Kendrick pulls him close and his lips read "Next time" before he releases the handshake.

Prof. X: What a match! Stefan Raab just won the Best of Three Series between himself and Ryan Kendrick in what was an epic match.
The Carter: Matches like that don't come around often but when they do you just sit back in awe and try to take it all in.
Francine: These two definitely carved their names in GZWA history tonight. Well fought contest.

*** Three Stages of Hell Match ***
1st Match: First Blood Match
2nd Match: Tables Match
3rd Match (if necessary): Last Woman Standing Match



"The Goddess" Amanda Cortez vs. “La Diabla” Serai Leone (in-ring debut)

1st Stage Of Hell: First Blood Match
You could feel the intense tension pervading throughout the air as Serai Leone and Amanda Cortez bore holes into each other from their sides of the ring. The bell had long rung but the two Vixens didn’t move an inch as they stared the other down, trying to intimidate the other. There was no love lost between these two and the bad blood between them had long since boiled over to where Amanda had finally reached her breaking point. Three stages of hell would be the end game…. in which one of these Vixens would be declared the victim. Amanda takes a bold step forward towards Serai, her eyes showing that she is not afraid of her, the latter having taken so much from her to the point she was ready to finally end here. Serai raises an eyebrow in amusement at Amanda showing no fear towards her, causing her to take two steps forward which leads to both lunging forward into a tie up.

The two determined women tried to best the other in the tie up before Amanda gained the upper hand and got Serai in a headlock, pulling her a few steps before sending Serai to the mat from a swinging neckbreaker. Serai lands hard on the mat and Amanda used that perfect opportunity to drive her right foot into Serai’s face. Amanda bounces from foot to foot, fists up ready and fired up to take her rival down as she allows Serai to get to her knees before kicking her back to the mat. Serai is back to her knees again and Amanda is right there with a quickness to deliver sharp right and left hands to her temple. Serai looks pissed off and Amanda looks ready as Serai quickly rolls away from Amanda to hurriedly get to her feet, charging towards her like a woman on a mission and attempting a clothesline from hell that Amanda quickly ducks. But Serai cleverly doubles up quick and rushes Amanda again, this time laying her out successfully with the clothesline from hell. Soon as Amanda hits the mat, Serai begins mud hold stomping her to try to tire her out, first aiming her foot at her sides before she begins kicking her in the face, wanting her to draw that blood that will gain her victory to ther first match.

Amanda covers her face and rolls away from Serai, rolling out of the ring as Serai yells for her to get back in. But Amanda is walking around the ring, trying to catch her breath as Serai begins to taunt, roaring the crowd up with heavy booes while Amanda finally rolls back into the ring. Serai is laughing at Amanda as the red head beauty glares at her arch nemesis in anger, rushing her to tackle her to the mat, delivering sharp left and right hooks to her face before raising up off of her to get her into the Kimura shoulder lock as Serai tries to wrench her arm back but Amanda keeps a tight hold onto it, adding pressure. She knows ther is a first blood match, she knows that the only way to advance to stage two is by making Serai bleed but right now, she was only worried about inflicting pain on her enemy for all the emotional and mental stress she had to endure during ther cold war between them. She was showing her anger through her physical actions, showing her that her mind games had brought her to her breaking point. When she felt like she had, had enough, she releases her, stepping back as she seethes with fury, wanting to cover Serai’s blood all over the mat. Serai is on her knees, trying to catch her breath as she makes it as if she’s about to slide out the ring when she’s really grabbing for the crowbar that’s outside of the ring that she placed there. She grabs it just as Amanda grabs her free arm to pull her up when suddenly Serai begins clobbering Amanda in the face like a madwoman, refusing to let up on the hints as Amanda stumbles back in shock, her nose busted as the front of her top begins to seep with blood. The bell is rung, calling for the end of the match as Serai smirks at Amanda who is howling and screaming out in pain while she holds her nose.

2nd Stage Of Hell: Table Match
Amanda is holding her nose and glaring at a laughing Serai as she hides the towel to her nose some more, leaning her head back to hold the towel in place while keeping a close eye on Serai who inches closer and closer until finally, Amanda throws the towel out of the ring and charges Serai, colliding with her with a spinning flying wheel kick that sends both women to the mat. Amanda punches the back of Serai’s head to beat her to getting on her feet first as Serai then angrily gets to her feet and quickly lunges at Amanda, catching her cleanly around the midsection as she takes her down and gets on top of her, pummeling her in a fit of rage as the crowd booes heavily. Serai then makes it to her feet and grabs Amanda by the head, pulling her to her feet as well while the cameramen try to be perfectionists and angle their cameras just right for the captivated fans tuning in at home.

Amanda tries to fight back but is unsuccessful at the moment as Serai lifts Amanda up and over her back to land the Crucifix Powerbomb! This elicits more hisses and booes from the displeased fans as Serai slowly makes her way to her feet to stare down at Amanda with a twisted, sinister smile before dropping to the mat and rolling out of the ring to reach under the ring for a table, pulling one out and sliding it into the ring. As soon as Serai slides into the ring and picks up the table, Amanda weakly dropkicks the table into her, not as strongly as she would have liked it but hard enough to send Serai sailing into the air and on her back as the table lands soundly beside her. Amanda drops to her knees to catch her breath for a moment as the crowd begins to whistle and cheer, trying to give her that boost to help build up her momentum as she stares at Serai slowly getting to her feet. She climbs to her feet as well as she’s ready to face off with her yet again, ducking as soon as Serai comes charging her and turning to swing her fist at her when Serai ducks and elbows Amanda in the stomach, causing her to stumble backwards. Serai steps forward and Amanda headbutts her in the face before dropkicking her once again. Seeing the downed Serai, she hurries to the turnbuckle and climbs up, sitting and waiting as Serai stirs on the mat. Once she gets to her feet, Amanda leaps from the turnbuckle, landing on Serai’s shoulders as she falls back and connects her ankles to Serai’s neck to Hurricarana her. Serai flies through the air, landing hard on the mat as Amanda goes for the table, pausing when she sees her nose is bleeding again before wiping it with the back of her arm and placing the table against the turnbuckle. She turns just in time for Serai’s fist to connect with her jaw, sending her stumbling away from the table and to the ropes as Serai begins slapping her around the ring, trash talking and taunting her.

The fans again boo heavily as Serai relishes in the fact that she now has the upper hand once more. She bends down to grab Amanda by the hand when she surprises her by poking her in the eyes, causing Serai to stumble backwards in shock, bumping right into the table as Amanda wastes NO time at all to jump to her feet and Fades To Black Serai right through the table! The bell is immediately rung as Amanda falls to her knees, holding her midsection as she exhales heavily, staring at Serai laying on the mat with the broken table around her.

3rd Stage Of Hell: Last Woman Standing Match
Both women have really went through hell tonight with heavy determination in trying to destroy and annihilate the other. Serai emerged victorious from the first stage with successfully making Amanda bleed while in return, Amanda picked up the win in the second stage by putting Serai through the table. Now the two women are tied with a win each, the third match ultimately gaining the winner of this match the victory. Amanda wipes her nose with the crimson stained towel while Serai leans on the ropes, trying to catch her breath. Both almost depleted of their energy but the strong hatred that they hold for each other will be the adrenaline to help them keep going till the very end… until they had successfully put down the other woman. Amanda tosses her towel out of the ring to show Serai that she was down as far as her injuries but not as she gestured for Serai to bring it. The cocky vixen glares at Amanda, pushing herself from the ropes as the two now circle the ring like two sharks in the water who are out for blood. They both lunge at each other and Amanda is met with a hard left hook to her right eye from a fired up Serai. Amanda finds herself on the mat while Serai begins kicking at Amanda’s midsection with fury as the audience claps and stomps their feet to build momentum, trying to give Amanda that added rush of support to aid an adrenaline boost. Amanda makes it to her knees but Serai drives her foot into her back, causing Amanda to fall right back down on the mat as she lays there for a few, causing the ref to being the count.

1…

2…

3 NOPE, she’s up but barely as Amanda is beginning to feel all of what she’s suffered from the first two matches. Serai uses that to her advantage as she begins delivering slaps to the red head’s face which immediately turned to hard, solid blows from her sharp fists as Amanda struggled to try to evade Serai’s personal space to try to grab control of the upper hand. Dodging and ducking, ducking and dodging but to no avail as Serai stays close and keeps her hands up and her eyes locked in on Amanda like a target as she continues delivering hard slaps that transition to hard punches. She finally has had enough as she grabs Amanda by the neck, raising her high into the air with a wobbling arm before CHOKESLAMMING Amanda right into the mat! Amanda is motionless as Serai stumbles back into the ropes, leaning onto them to catch her breath as the ref begins the count.

SHE’S UP! Serai’s eyes are widened in shock and disbelief as she angrily pushes herself off the ropes to begin berating the ref, slapping her hands together to indicate that he was counting too slow when he had in fact been counting at the normal speed. Serai then starts yelling, looking at the crowd as she is heard yelling on camera, ‘HOW?!’ with wondering how is Amanda still going right now as she watches her struggle to get onto her feet. Serai angrily charges Amanda as soon as she makes it fully on her feet by rushing her into the turnbuckle, delivering slaps that Amanda begins to slap away as she grabs Serai and turns to throw HER into the turnbuckle now. She begins to kick her in the midsection that sends her lower and lower down the turnbuckle until she’s finally sitting down on the mat, out of it as Amanda takes a few long steps back to rush forward and Bronco Busters Serai! The crowd is LOVING this as they chant and cheer, having a good feeling that Amanda will pick up the win in this match. Frustrated, Serai struggles to her feet, staggering as Amanda is ready for her, hitting her with the Stunna #1 that sends Serai falling heavily to the mat. Amanda backs up cautiously as the ref begins the count.

SERAI IS UP! Amanda curses in anger at being SO CLOSE at having this match won as Serai seems to be out of it still, struggling to stay on her feet as she finally finds her steady step and rushes over to Amanda who, is feeling the effects from the previous two matches, throws a sloppy punch that Serai ducks just in time. When Amanda turns around, Serai hurried hits her in the face with her forearm, catching Amanda off guard as Serai then backs up to be safe before she runs at her with a clothesline. Serai rests against the ropes as Amanda sits up, looking around when suddenly Serai glares and sprints forward and dives over Amanda, grabbing her head in the process and successful rolling neck snaps the red headed Vixen as the audience erupt into heavy, blatant booes. The back of Amanda’s head slams into the mat and Serai suddenly realizes that this match isn’t going to last long, which causes her to smile as her confidence as well as a bit of adrenaline builds up. She stomaches the pain she is in from going through the table in the last match as she plans to tough it out till the very end. Soon as Amanda scrambles to her feet, Serai lunges for her but WAIT…. Amanda isn’t there.... As Amanda hurriedly sidesteps to the side at the last minute and grabs Serai by her hair. Amanda begins yelling to the crowd as they cheer her with happiness, preparing to finally destroy Serai when in a surprise effort, Serai shoulder thrusts Amanda HARD right in the gut. Amanda stumbles back as she grits her teeth while Serai wastes no time getting behind Amanda, hooking her arms and turning them around so that they were in opposite positions. With Amanda now behind Serai and her head lowered, Serai tightens her hold ever more on Amanda’s arms and jumps in the air with Amanda’s face driving into the mat. The crowd is going crazy with booes as Serai stands there and just looks down at a motionless Amanda as she rolls her eyes at the ref and yells for him to get to counting.

DING DING DING!!! SERAI WINS! SERAI WINS THE MATCH! As soon as Serai heard the bell, all the adrenaline finally leaves her body as she hits the mat, her energy finally depleted as her three daughters begin hurrying down the ring from the back, sliding into the ring to tend to their mother as the ref also checks on her before raising her hand and then hurries over to the motionless Amanda to check on her.

*** GZWA Vixen Championship Match ***
Fatal 4 Way Match



“Showstoppin’ Senorita” Mariah © vs. “Lady So Divine” Delta Madison vs. “The Ultimate Vixen” Raven vs. “The Glamazon” Beth Phoenix

Prof. X: Over the past few months, Serena Denet issued a trial by fire to the Vixen division in order to find a new #1 contender to the Vixen Championship. While our reigning champion put her title on the line on multiple occasions in our Primetime broadcasts, it came down to three women that were selected to challenge the champion - the first inaugural winner of the annual Queen of Queens Tournament, Delta Madison, and two former champions - “The Glamazon” Beth Phoenix and “The Ultimate Vixen” Raven.
The Carter: Mariah’s got her work cut out for her tonight if she hopes to retain her title. All of three of these women are no strangers to championship gold. It’s only a matter of time that Beth Phoenix regains the title and the same can be said about Raven since she was the woman who Mariah defeated to win the title in the first place. Many skeptics believe that Delta could have been one half of the Tag Team Champions if Endee Leights stuck around and challenged the MisFits for the gold.
Francine: Don’t rule out Mariah either. She came out on top in every single one of her open challenges to date. Out of all of the women currently active in the Vixen’s Division, she’s been here since Day 1. She’s been through it all - the highs and lows. She’s a veteran, poised and ready for this challenge tonight. She may have doubted herself in the past but I think that she’s ready to welcome this challenge with open arms.
Prof. X: After seeing what the other women have done here tonight to set the bar pretty high, I’m expecting that these ladies tear the roof off this arena tonight in this match. The women in the Vixen Division, especially our reigning champion, pride themselves as being the best athletes that this sport as to offer. Win, lose, or draw, we’re guaranteed for quite the show tonight with the Vixen Championship on the line.

The three challengers each arrive to the ring and stand awaiting the arrival of the reigning GZWA Vixen Champion. The sound of “It’s About Me” by Bandy Leggz fills the arena as Mariah confidently exits from behind the entrance curtain. She stood at the top of the entrance ramp with the Vixen Championship raised into the air before she looked over her shoulder and signalled for two women to join her on the stage - Angelica Ward and Tiphany Banks. Two women join Mariah’s side and follow the champion down the ramp. The three women stride around the ring and down to ringside where they join several noteworthy women from the wrestling world in attendance for this match: Jade Justice, Jennifer Sparks, Carrie Marie, and Madusa.

After the formal introductions of the champion and challengers by Zoey Valentine, all four women stare down. At the sound of the opening bell, the battlelines are drawn as this quickly escalates into two separate conflicts as Mariah brawls with Raven while Beth Phoenix squares off with Delta Madison. The Glamazon closes the gap with a Clothesline to start things off, but the Lady So Divine ducks underneath the blow and responds with a Swinging Neckbreaker. Delta hits the ropes and rebounds back with a Springboard Cross Body to the waking Glamazon. Beth Phoenix catches Delta out of the air with ease and tosses into the arms of Raven and Mariah as they were charging towards each other. With Delta in their arms, Beth dropkicks all three women to the floor simultaneously. The Glamazon has her eyes on the prize and dragged Mariah back to mat with a Michinoku Driver.

ONE…

TWO…

NO!!!

Raven is quick to break the pin, but didn’t think about the consequences as Beth Phoenix glared at her with a look that would strike fear in anyone living or dead. Raven backs away, pleading for mercy until making a desperate move by kicking Beth in the midsection. Beth caught her foot and shook her head as she prepared to discipline the Ultimate Vixen for her mischief. Not willing to give up the ghost already, Raven shocks the Glamazon with Enzuigiri to the skull. That’s not enough to take out the Glamazon, so Raven quickly follows up with a Revolver (Cobra Clutch Backbreaker) and Delta lands the assist in the form of a Handspring Splash to cover the Glamazon in a pin of her own.

ONE…

TWO…

WAIT!!!

Once again, Raven broke the pin attempt by dragging Delta off by the leg and into application of Discipline (Edgecator/Kneeling Inverted Sharpshooter). The reigning Vixen Champion made her presence known with a Heartbreaker (Sweet Chin Music) to Raven’s jaw to break the hold.

Before Mariah could make the cover, Beth Phoenix surprised her from behind with an Elevated Double Underhook Chicken Wing in preparation for the Glam Slam. The Showstoppin’ Senorita drops back down and frees herself with a Reverse Casadora Bulldog to counter. Beth Phoenix is still getting back up after that reversal so Mariah strikes again with the Kiss the Carpet (Running Fame-Asser) to waking Glamazon but the Glamazon hip tosses Mariah over the top rope. Beth then sidesteps out of the way of the incoming Raven who improvises by diving through the ropes and into the waking Showstoppin’ Senorita with a Suicide Dive. Beth turned towards the remaining Vixen in the ring only to see the Lady So Divine coming down from the top rope with a Diving Hurracanrana. Beth managed to catch the Queen of Queens on her shoulders and sent her down to ringside, crashing into Raven and Mariah with a Running Release Powerbomb.

Prof. X: Beth Phoenix is a force to be reckoned with in this match. If these women were wise, they might want to form a temporary truce to take her out of the equation.
Francine: From what she’s been doing to them thus far, it seems like that they aren’t going to have any choice if they don’t want the Glamazon to win the gold.
The Carter: Hey, Beth Phoenix winning wouldn’t be a bad thing. I wouldn’t mind seeing the Women’s Championship brought back.
Francine: Quit sucking up, Carter. You’re just taking her side since she’s out here at ringside with the rest of the corpses that she’s laid to waste out here.

Beth Phoenix tried to Double Suplex Delta Madison and Mariah but Raven kicks her shin to allow Delta and Mariah to reverse the maneuver. The three women silently agree for their next course of action. Mariah drags Beth Phoenix into position as Delta and Raven assisted her in performing a Triple Powerbomb to the Glamazon.

The Carter: This has to be the Bizarro World version of the Vixen division if we’re seeing these women get on the same page.
Prof. X: That’s what happens when you’re forced to deal with a common threat. There was no way going around this outcome if these women are looking to walk away from this match as champion.

This partnership proved to be short-lived as Raven tosses Delta into the steel steps while they were in the middle of their brief celebration of temporarily disposing of the Glamazon. Raven smashed Mariah’s skull onto the ring apron before rolling Mariah back into the ring to make this a 1-on-1 affair.

Raven reintroduces herself to the Showstoppin’ Senorita with a Running Knee Strike to the face, only for Mariah to stop Raven in her tracks with a Dragon Screw reversal. Mariah shook off the cobwebs and executed a Cartwheel Elbow Drop (Jillian Hall style). The Ultimate Vixen rolls out of the way to evade the flashy maneuver and capitalizes on Mariah’s folly with a Hair-Pull Curb Stomp. As several fans turn away cringing from the last blow, Raven pins Mariah.

ONE…

TWO…

TH---NO!!!

Raven found herself dragged off of Mariah with a Wheelbarrow Facebuster by the Lady So Divine, who drops Raven right back on top of Mariah. Delta then stylishly lands on top of both women with a Handspring Splash. The Lady So Divine doesn’t stop there. She performed a DeltaSault (Moonsault from 2nd rope) on both women and goes for the win

ONE…

TWO…

TH---NO!!!

Much to Delta’s dismay, Mariah and Raven kick out in unison. Delta Madison continued her offense with a Step Up Enzuigiri to the waking Vixens. Raven uses Mariah as a shield to take the blow and shoves Mariah into Delta with a makeshift spear. Just as the Showstoppin’ Senorita staggered back to her feet, Raven sent her head-first into the corner post before rolling her up with a School Boy.

ONE…

TWO…

THR--WAIT!!

Mariah rolls back to her feet with Raven in tow and drops her to the mat with authority with a Blue Thunder Driver. Surprisingly enough, Mariah doesn’t go for the pin as the veteran Vixen is aware of her surroundings. She struck the waking Delta Madison with a Knee Trembler. The blow knocks the Lady So Divine onto the middle rope, leaving her in the perfect position for Mariah to follow up with an O.O.C. (Ropehung Moonlight Drive). Mariah launched herself back into the ring with a Springboard 450 Splash to the grounded Delta. Raven derailed those travel plans by shaking the ropes and caught the falling Mariah with a Samoan Drop just as the Showstoppin’ Senorita lost her footing.

Arrogant as ever, Raven rose back up to her feet and too a formal bow with Delta Madison and Mariah at her feet. The live audience responds with a chorus of boos towards the Ultimate Vixen.

Prof. X: That ego of Raven’s will ultimately be her own downfall.
The Carter: I’m not trying to brown nose, but she held the Vixen title for quite some time while still managing to boast at every opportunity to her opposition.
Francine: In an environment like this, you would think that Raven would be taking the time to pin one of these ladies before they find a way to turn the tables on her.

Raven’s boasting is short-lived as the Glamazon makes her presence known with Release German Suplex, sending the Ultimate Vixen into the corner. The Glamazon shares her own unique tour ride throughout Suplex City to Mariah and Delta by sending them across the ring with a healthy serving of a Release German Suplex each. Beth Phoenix showed that she didn’t forget about the Ultimate Vixen not for one second as she smashed her into the corner with a Running Splash. Raven collapses onto the mat in front of the corner while the Glamazon positioned herself on the top rope. Raven slowly rose back to her feet as Beth came down from the heavens with a Top Rope Diving Clothesline. At the last instant, Raven evades the blow with a Raetrix (MaTrish evasion) evasion. She quickly capitalized on the Glamazon’s mistake by dropping Beth’s skull over her knee with a Snapmare Driver. That attack merely stunned the Glamazon so Raven aimed to win with the Bitch Chick (Chick Kick). The Glamazon ducks underneath the kick and elevates the Ultimate Vixen onto her shoulders with a Torture Rack.

The Carter: (Cringing) Goddamn, I’ve heard stories about how flexible Raven is but I’m positive that NO ONE is supposed to bend that way.
Francine: I’m pretty sure that Beth Phoenix is trying to make her into a human pretzel.

To the surprise of the GZWA Nation, the hold is broken by the Showstoppin’ Senorita with a Heartbreaker (Sweet Chin Music) to jaw of Glamazon, sending her flat on the mat. Raven wisely opts out of this conflict by rolling out onto ring apron to recuperate.

Mariah motions to pin the Glamazon but she drops to the floor with a breakdance split evasion to narrowly evade the incoming Roundhouse Kick from the Lady So Divine as if she had eyes in the back of her head. The Showstoppin’ Senorita retaliates with a Tiger Suplex but Delta drops safely behind Mariah on her feet. She returns the gesture with a Cobra Clutch Bomb and applies Lotus Lock to the grounded champion.

Prof. X: This isn’t looking good for Mariah. Delta Madison has her in the center of that ring with nowhere to go!
Francine: Let’s not forget on how long these women have been going at it in this match. It’s surprising that they have been performing at this level this long in this match.
The Carter: I think things are about to get even worse for Mariah as Raven wants in on this action!
Francine: No matter how much you pray and wish for it, there’s no way any of these girls are going have a threesome in that ring for your dirty pleasure so get your mind out of the gutter.
The Carter: A man can dream can’t he?
Francine: I wasn’t aware that you were a man, Carter. If you were any more of a pig, children would be stick coins into your back.

Raven applies Figure Four Leg Lock on lower half of Showstoppin’ Senorita’s body to leave Mariah in double jeopardy. This combination submission doesn’t stop there as Beth Phoenix rolled the Lady So Divine over and applies a seated Camel Clutch, thus creating a chain submission on all three women! Mariah is STILL locked in the Lotus Lock and Raven being victim to her own Figure Four Leg Lock flow of pain being turned against her.

Prof. X: Good grief, if someone submits here who is going to be the champion?
Francine: That’s a VERY good question there, professor. This is some truly innovative offense from these women at the top of our beloved Vixens division.
The Carter: That’s for damn sure, Franny.

Raven manages to free herself at the same time that Delta’s hold loosens enough for Mariah to slip free. Both Vixens then opt to break the hold on Delta but Beth levels them both with a Double Clothesline. The Glamazon continue her rampage by tossing the Lady So Divine like a rag doll into the corner with a Choke Toss. Beth Phoenix goes for another on Raven but she rakes Beth’s eyes to escape that fate. Raven aimed to take the Glamazon out of the equation with the High Price (Edgecution), but Beth wasn’t out of the picture yet. She shoved Raven into the ropes and simultaneously caused Delta Madison to double over on the top rope where she positioned herself. Mariah surprised Beth from behind by planting her face-first into the mat with the Sweetest Day (Scotty 2 Hotty Facebuster) while Raven performs an Overdose (Stratusphere) to stunned Lady So Divine on the top rope. Unfortunately, Raven doesn’t get to complete the maneuver as Mariah nails her with hesitation dropkick to the face while she’s in a makeshift tree of woe position. Raven collapsed to the mat and Mariah wasted no time laying her out with the Queendom (Ki Crusher).

Prof. X: Looks like the Showstoppin’ Senorita is going home with the gold! She used this very same finishing maneuver to take the gold from Raven a few months ago!

Mariah went for the pin but the Glamazon spears her between the ropes and out of the ring.
Delta Madison shook off the cobwebs and executes a picture perfect Delta Force (Shooting Star Press) to the grounded Ultimate Vixen and hooks Raven’s leg in a pin for the win.

ONE…

TWO…

THREE!!!



Zoey Valentine: Your winner and NEW GZWA Vixen Champion, Delta Madison!

Prof. X: That was a Vixen title match for the ages. It could have went any way there tonight. These women should be proud of themselves for the show they put on for these fans tonight.
The Carter: I can definitely agree with that statement.
Francine: Looks like we don’t have a happy camper…

Just as Delta has her arm raised by the referee to celebrate her victory, the Glamazon attacked from behind and lays her out with the Glam Slam. Mariah and Raven are still battle weary from this contest and are quickly laid out by two more additional Glam Slams from the Glamazon.

Francine: Talk about a sore loser…
Prof. X: The Glamazon wanted to revive the Women’s Championship here in GZWA if she won the title here tonight, but her personal frustrations are no excuse to take this out on her competition!
The Carter: I wouldn’t dare say that to her after what she did to Delta, Mariah, and Raven just now. I’d hate to be the one who has to calm her down backstage....

*** END OF PART I ***

OOC Note: Special thanks to Samuel , Santana Ortiz , and ❤Knightmare INC for assisting me with match writing on this half of the PPV and ALL of you for your hard work and patience. I'm still sick here (since last Saturday where I caught whatever my niece and nephew had along with my sinuses acting up) but I'm going to plow through the next few days to try get over this. 

[Xion Zeros]

Veda Scott looks around to the members of the Machine minutes away from tonight’s main event.

Veda Scott: “Carnage is going out first tonight in this thing, but to make things clear, you know the plan right, guys?”

Victor Phillips steps forward to speak up.

“With all due respect to you, Mr. Zeros, and our noble cause, but I’m not laying down to anyone in this match. I’m more than happy to fight in the trenches with you guys until the end, but when it’s down to just us, I’m calling for everyone for themselves. Let the best man win.”

G-Money Briggs chimed in, “Veda, we’re inclined to agree. We got Carnage’s back out there, but when we dispose of the filth and it’s just down to the diamonds in the rough of the Machine, it’s winner take all.”

Dequan Wallace adds, “OH MY BROTHER, TESTIFY!! Wait… wrong line there…”

Veda Scott adjusts her glasses from the tip of her nose: “That’s an understatement… I respect your admiration, boys. I truly do. Just know that Carnage is willing to do anything to inflict the most harm on anyone or anything that stands in the way of him retaining the World Heavyweight title. Mr. Zeros has instructed us to remain united to insure that the championship remains with the Machine - no matter the outcome.

Good luck, boys. Not that you all need it…"

The cameras switch to CM Punk finishing up taping his wrists and adjusting his kickpads. He took a few practice swings to the air and spun around with a Roundhouse Kick, causing the cameraman approaching closer to step back to avoid the blow.

Best in the World | CM Punk: “Story time for the GZWA Nation. Once upon a time, I scratched and clawed my way to the top of the GZWA landscape only to be screwed out of a win that was basically mine on a platter at the hands of the GZWA Chairman. Fast-forward to many months later after fighting my way into the conversation for the GZWA World Heavyweight Championship. I defied the odds, I jumped over the hurdles and managed to grab Xion’s elusive brass ring. That’s right, I won the title. That wasn’t good enough for our Chairman. As usual, he stuck his nose in my business and screwed me over once again - causing me to lose the title that I rightfully won mere minutes after winning it. Since then, I didn’t get mad, I plan to get even. I solemnly vow to meddle in the affairs of the Chairman until the Machine breaks down beyond repair.

No one else has the balls to step up to the challenge, so I’m taking matters into my own hands with my fellow Straight-Edge Saviors. I don’t even care if I win or not. The only thing that matters to me is that the title isn’t in the hands of the Machine after it’s all said and done tonight.

I’m definitely no saint, but I’m positive that’s a gospel that everyone in the GZWA Nation can sing Hallelujah to.”

---

The cameras pan up to reveal the body of Ashleigh Cash, sporting new ring gear to accompany her teammates to the ring tonight.

Ashleigh points to Matthew Miles and Psycho Sagus and smiles towards the camera.

“Everyone continues to look down on us. They continue to underestimate us at every opportunity. We were THIS close at defeating the MisFits and becoming the GZWA Tag Team Champions. We were THIS close to bringing a new age within the tag team division. We weren’t THIS close to beating the Enforcers. We BEAT them. If we cross paths with them in this match, my boys are going to beat them AGAIN. We’re sick of being overlooked and ignored. We’re not going to be bullied by the Enforcers, the Machine, nor by anyone else. It’s our time to shine.”

Matthew Miles leans over Ashleigh’s shoulder and winks towards the camera.

“What my beautiful, yet very outspoken girlfriend is trying to say is that is that World Heavyweight Championship gold wasn’t initially on our plans for the near future, but it would be a nice consolation prize to make up for being screwed out of the tag team titles.”

Psycho Sagus adds, “World Heavyweight Champion does have a nice ring to it.”

Ashleigh smirks, “Wait a sec, aren’t you guys in the wrong weight class to be fighting for the World HEAVYWEIGHT title?”

Sagus: “Last time I checked there isn’t going to be an official weigh in, short stuff…”

Ashleigh glares at him, “I hope there IS one just to get you disqualified!”

Miles: “Whoa there, babe. I’ll be disqualified too. I barely weigh a more than Kevin does. Enough kidding around you two. We gotta get our game faces on. We’re in serious mode tonight.”

Sagus: “Final level. No more continues. One life left. No cheat codes or guides handy. Either nut up or shut up.”

Ashleigh grins, “Precisely!”

Matthew Miles is left shaking his head as the cameras switch back back to a shot of the live crowd as we prepare for tonight’s main event.

Riot Match for the GZWA World Heavyweight Championship



Zoey Valentine stood in the ring to run down the rules for tonight’s main event.

Zoey Valentine: “For the first time in roughly 4 years, GZWA is proud to revive the Riot Match as part of Riot Control’s traditional main event. This year’s match will be the first to usher in a new brand of rules. One, two individuals will start this match and a new competitor will join them in this ring in three minute intervals until all 30 entries in this match have entered in this match. Let it be known that this year’s Riot Match will not feature over the top rope eliminations. Secondly, anything goes - weapons are allowed and pinfalls/submissions are allowed anywhere in the building as long you have an official to validate the elimination.. Eliminations shall occur only by pinfall or submission and by the unfortunate circumstances that the referees on hand deem the Superstar or Vixen unable to continue the match. Last but not least, the last competitor standing after all other 29 entrants shall be named the GZWA World Heavyweight Champion!”

The cameras pan back to the commentary table as we get a shot of our commentary team, ready to call the action of tonight’s main event.

Prof. X: “This is going to be one Riot Match to remember, especially with the GZWA World Heavyweight title on the line. Do you two think that the GZWA Chairman is intentionally trying to punish Carnage in a match like this?”
Francine: “Nothing of the sort. I see it as honing his craft. If the Machine wants the Hardcore Monster to be the most fearsome predator that the GZWA landscape has ever seen, then the Machine have to put on a display of his force and allow as many members of the roster to experience the sheer terror of facing Carnage for themselves.”
The Carter: “You have to be crazy to accept being in this match anyway. Who has a snowball’s chance in hell of stopping Carnage anyway?”
Prof. X: “Well, The Undertaker and Jimmy Jacobs were originally set to face Carnage in a Triple Threat Casket Match, but the challenge went on deaf ears as our Chairman opted for this solution to provide the Hardcore Monster the ultimate test of his abilities.”



As decreed by Veda Scott at the top of our broadcast, the Hardcore Monster himself is the first entry into this match, accompanied by Veda Scott. Carnage enters the ring and raises the title overhead, issuing the warning to anyone who wants the World Heavyweight title that they would have to go through him tonight.

Veda Scott claps and points at Carnage, shouting to the audience, “That title is staying right here, folks! ANY man nor woman who comes down that ramp to face Carnage will meet an early grave if they expect to win the title tonight, let alone defeat the Hardcore Monster.”

A loud gong is heard as the crowd is on their feet at the arrival of the #2 spot in this match, none other than The Undertaker himself.

Francine: Speak of the devil…
The Carter: This should be good. I didn’t expect to see this match-up right off the bat!
Prof. X: I don’t think anyone did.

The crowd goes nuts as these two monsters are first to face off right off the bat at the sound of the opening bell. Both of these behemoths trade blows until they reel back slightly to hit the ropes. They then came to a stalemate with a simultaneous clothesline in the middle of the ring. That didn’t stop the Hardcore Monster and the Deadman’s resolve to fell the other. They repeat this gesture to same result. They charge at each other for a third time, but this time, they manage to level each other to the floor. That blow was a far cry from being enough to take these two Superstars from out this match. Both Carnage and The Undertaker sat up in unison as clock counts down for next entry.

Sheik MMA is the #3 entry into this match and hastily charges into the ring to take on both Carnage and The Undertaker.

The Carter: What is this guy high or something?
Francine: He’s on something not to come out here with something to defend himself. Y’know, a chair, a sledgehammer, or I dunno a GUN against these guys?
Prof. X: Can’t rule him out yet. Maybe he has some kind of a gameplan?

Both Carnage and Taker glare at this newcomer who makes a bold play to attack them at the same time. Shiek MMA kicks at their shins to no avail, but doesn’t give up his resolve. Shiek hits the ropes and returns with a Springboard Flying Lariat. To the surprise of the audience, Carnage and Taker caught him out of the air in unison and dropped the poor fool to the canvas with a Double Chokeslam. The duo doesn’t stop there. Carnage propels Shiek back into the air and drops him onto the ropes with a Military Press Stungun, leaving him to be easy prey for the Undertaker’s pending Last Ride. The Deadman wastes no time pinning Shiek MMA afterwards while the clock counts down.

ONE…

Zoey Valentine: Shiek MMA has been eliminated!

Psycho Sagus enters at the #4 spot, but he wisely kept his distance as The Undertaker beckons him into the ring.

Prof. X: After seeing what happened to poor Sheik, I sure no one else is going to make any reckless moves to get in there with Carnage and Taker.
Francine: The only game plan Sheik had was not coming out of this thing alive from what I gathered.
The Carter: Someone might have to go in there and scrape him off of the canvas. That was just downright ugly. At least, Sagus is smart enough to stay out of there.
Francine: After losing to a sandwich, you’d approach a lot of matches differently too, Carter.
Prof. X: That poor kid isn’t going to ever live that down…

The not-so Brothers of Destruction’s partnership dissolves as quickly as it came together as Carnage attacked The Undertaker with a Forearm Smash to the spine and rolled him up into a School Boy.

ONE…

TW--WAIT!!!

The Deadman applies the Hell’s Gate hold to reverse the pin attempt. Carnage isn’t going to allow himself to be eliminated this early in this contest as he fought tooth and nail against the hold. The Hardcore Monster willed himself back to his feet and freed himself by throwing the Deadman into the corner with a Buckle Bomb (Running Release Powerbomb).

As the clock counts down, Carnage down on one knee to recuperate while Undertaker slumps in the corner.

Jaser Cruz enters this match at the #5 spot. He attacked the lone Mega Buster from behind while Psycho Sagus was caught up watching the spectacle in the ring. Sagus fell to the floor and rolled down to the bottom of the ramp.

The Carter: I hear that Jaser isn’t too thrilled about the end result of the Television title match back on the Xplosion.
Francine: You heard right, Carter. He was rather pissed that he wasn’t crowned the new champion after all that transpired in the match.
Prof. X: If he can best 29 other Superstars and Vixens in this match then he could remedy that loss with a different kind of championship gold. All hope isn’t lost yet.

Carnage charged into the corner with Corner Splash to the reeling Undertaker. Just as he lept into the air, Jaser connects with a Springboard Diving Spear to Carnage. Jaser Cruz confidently covers the Hardcore Monster upon impact.

ONE…

TWO…

NO!!

Carnage powers out of the pin attempt to send Jaser across the ring, Psycho Sagus launches himself into the ring with a Springboard Diving Stomp to Jaser’s head. Unfortunately, Sagus misses the mark as Jaser rolled out of harm’s way at the last second. Jaser then served Sagus a JKO (Hangman’s Facebuster) for his troubles.

Jaser doesn’t get to go for the cover as he saw #6 entry racing down the entrance ramp and sliding into the ring.

The sixth man to enter this match is none other than the Psycho Menace himself, Ry Drake. He slid into the ring and sprung to his feet with a Flying Clothesline towards Jaser Cruz. Jaser saw him coming and was poised and ready to stop his offense flat with a STO. With the rest of his opposition down around him, Jaser Cruz confidently goes around the ring serving 3 Amigos (3 Swinging Neckbreakers) each to Carnage, Ry Drake, and Taker. The Deadman wasn’t in a mood for receiving gifts and served his own brand of justice in the form of a Sidewalk Slam to counter. Just as the Deadman sat down to drop Jaser to the mat, the Psycho Menace struck with the Laid Out (Strong Right Kick to the Head) and opts to eliminate the Deadman.

ONE…

The Jungle Girl enters this match at #7 spot.

The Carter: About time this match stopped being a sausage fest. Joanna’s the first Vixen to show up in this match so far!
Francine: I don’t know if that’s a good thing or not. There’s a lot of heavy hitters in there.

Joanna Tarzanna slid into the ring and ducked an incoming strike from Carnage but returns the gesture with a Superwoman Punch. She then proceeded to serve up Superwoman Punches to everyone that stood in her way. First to Ry Drake, then to Psycho Sagus, another to The Undertaker, and finally to Jaser Cruz. Carnage grabbed her from behind and sent her into the ropes with a powerful Irish whip. She redirects her momentum with a well-placed Vine Swing (619) to Carnage. A dropkick by Jaser Cruz causes her to fall out to ringside to prevent the Jungle Girl from continuing her offense. The Psycho Menace struck from behind with a Reverse DDT to Jaser Cruz and hooked his leg in a pin.

ONE…

TWO…

THREE!!

Zoey Valentine: Jaser Cruz has been eliminated!

Jaser Cruz’s temper has reached a boiling point at this latest upset. The referees officiating this match tried to calm him down but Jaser shoved them all to the floor before arming himself with a steel chair. He took out his frustration out on the Psycho Menace, assaulting the Superstar repeatedly with vicious chair shots, one after another until finally dropping the Superstar onto the steel chair with a Snapmare Driver before leaving Drake to his opponents’ mercy.

Prof. X: Was that even called for?
Francine: I think Jaser felt that he had to make a statement for himself. He wasn’t going to leave here without making his presence known.
The Carter: I know he’s mad but Ry Drake is bloody mess out there… Is he even going to be able to continue this thing?
Prof. X: I don’t know but we have medical staff on hand to access the situation while this match continues.

Matthew Miles enters the match at the #8 spot, accompanied by his girlfriend and fellow Mega Buster, Ashleigh Cash. Miles quickly races onto the scene to team up with his partner in crime against the opposition.

Prof. X: Looks like we’ve got the Mega Busters in this match represented in full force.
Francine: Yes, they are the first full team to attempt to make a stand here in this match. They shouldn’t get too cocky as the remaining members of the Machine haven’t made their presence known in this match yet.
The Carter: Veda’s out here and that’s more than enough for me!

The Mega Busters deliver a Double Dropkick to the waking Carnage. Matthew Miles then continues their unorthodox offense by Suplexing Psycho Sagus onto to grounded Undertaker with a Splash. The Mega Busters don’t stop there as Ashleigh directs traffic and signals for both Superstars to take to the skies. The Hardcore Monster and the Deadman are hit with a tandem aerial assault in the form of a simultaneous 450 Splash (Miles) and Diving Senton combination by the Mega Busters in a bold attempt to eliminate the biggest threats from this contest.

ONE…

TH--NO!!!

The Carter: Awww, so close!

Both demons spawned from the depths of Hell kick out in unison as the timer to introduce the next Superstar into this match.

Dequan Wallace races down to the ring, wasting no time to make his presence known at the #9 entry in this match. The lone Enforcer fires off the Bullet (The Pounce) on both Mega Busters upon arrival as they are staggering to their feet after being tossed across the ring from Carnage and Taker powering out of their double pins.

The Carter: Looks like this is about to get ugly. Carnage got one of his own in there with him.
Francine: Just like how the Machine wanted this to go down…
Prof. X: It sure seems that way.

Dequan covers both Mega Busters simultaneously after beating on his chest to mock the underdogs to Ashleigh’s dismay.

ONE…

TWO…

THR--NO!!!

Fortunately, the Mega Busters kick out in unison. Dequan isn’t worried though as he lines up his next target into his crosshairs. Dequan beckons The Undertaker to his feet, charges in with the Bullet once again. Taker stops him dead in his tracks (no pun intended) with a Big Boot, inadvertently spinning him around to receive the pending Double DDT from the Mega Busters. Unfortunately, the Mega Busters aren’t able to make the pin as Carnage double chokeslams them with authority to the mat.

Prof. X: That’s a double dose of slam dunks by the Hardcore Monster there.
The Carter: What’s the Buckle Bomb, a lay up?
Francine: Nah, he’s shooting from half court. Those are 3-pointers. Seriously, what is this, NBA Jam now?
The Carter: Boomshakalaka!

Carnage gave a cocky grin as the Mega Busters laid helpless at his feet. The Undertaker wiped that grin right off Carnage’s face instantly with a Running DDT. After the Hardcore Monster’s skull bounces off of the canvas, the Deadman dropped a Jumping Leg Drop over Carnage’s throat. Just as the Deadman went for the cover, the Hardcore Monster stole a move out of The Undertaker’s playbook and locked in Hell’s Gate as the clock counted down.

The sound of “Cult of Personality” by In Living Colour filled the air to signal the arrival of the “Best in the World” CM Punk as the #10 entry into this match.

CM Punk walks down the ramp clapping sarcastically as the Undertaker bites tooth and nail against Carnage’s application of his own devastating hold. In a bizarre twist of fate, the Deadman submits to the hold while Punk circles around the ring and joins the team on commentary. Veda Scott taunts him from the opposite side of the ring, whereas Punk merely mouths to the members of the Machine, “You guys need to keep your dog on a leash.”

Zoey Valentine: The Undertaker has been eliminated!

The Carter: Shouldn’t you be out there fighting in this match?
CM Punk: Shouldn’t you learn to get a life?
Francine: Two valid points, but why are we blessed with your presence here with us tonight?
CM Punk shrugs, “I just want to survey the chaos from afar for a bit. Choose my moment to enter carefully. Besides, it’s not my business to step in Taker’s affairs. Last time I checked, the ring is HIS yard. Not my fault that he doesn’t know to how make the kids quit egging his house.”

Back in the ring, the members of the Machine stands dominant against the remaining Superstars. Carnage picks up the steel chair that was used on the Psycho Menace earlier and aims to smash in the brains of the Mega Busters still down on the mat. Ashleigh Cash snatches steel chair from Carnage from behind just as he motioned to execute the Mega Busters. the Blue Bombshell shows no fear as she threatens to use it but Carnage doesn’t believe her bluff.

Prof. X: Is she crazy? Didn’t she just come back from injury at the hands from the MisFits?
CM Punk: That’s what I love about those kids in the Mega Busters. Unlike a lot of people in the locker room who aren’t willing to stand up to the authority or the other various bullies around here, they got backbone. They might not win a lot or if at all, but they’ve got heart.
Francine: True, but having heart isn’t going to win you championships.
The Carter: That’s debatable, Frannie. Mariah was a compassionate Vixen Champion that managed to overthrow Raven to win the gold. Good guys and girls don’t all finish last.
Francine: I suppose so, but I don’t like to get caught up into fairy tales, Carter.

Dequan maneuvers around Carnage and closes in with the Bullet (Pounce) but Ashleigh moves out of the way, causing him to impact into Veda Scott standing on the ring apron and send them both crashing to the floor. The Hardcore Monster then draws near with Ashleigh backed into a corner. With her back against the corner, Ashleigh threw the chair to Carnage in what looked like an act of desperation. Carnage caught the chair with ease but he was instant hit with a Double Vandaminator by the Mega Busters. Once again, the young underdogs go for the cover.

ONE…

TWO…

THRE---NO!!!

Carnage wisely rolls out of the ring to recuperate as CM Punk stands up from his seat at commentary.

Prof. X: If this was a time to work together, I’d say this is the time. Carnage is a wounded animal after taking a blow like that and he’s without any help from his cohorts in the Machine at the moment.
CM Punk: I think you might be onto something there, professor.
Francine: You better make up your mind there, Phil, ‘cause the next entrant is about to come out.

The newly crowned GZWA Television Champion, Daniel Widdel, enters this match at #11.

Daniel Widdel stares down at CM Punk, teasing a confrontation.

CM Punk: Who is he looking at? Shouldn’t he be focusing on more important things? Y’know, such as monitoring his wife’s alcohol intake now that she can aim to make her baby weight her normal weight in booze?
Francine: Good question.

Daniel Widdel broke his gaze with Punk to attack a retreating Carnage. Widdel assaulted the Hardcore Monster with strikes until Carnage headbutted him to delay Widdel’s offense long enough to drop the TV Champion over the ringside barricade with a Military Press Stungun for his trouble.

Just as Carnage thought that he was done with this minor annoyance, the Mega Busters and Joanna Tarzanna join in the assault on the World Heavyweight Champion.

Prof. X: I’m going to ask again, Punk, but don’t you think you should be out there helping these guys?
CM Punk: In the immortal words of a very wise man by the name of Dean Ambrose, nope. I’m waiting for a special moment.
Prof. X: Fair enough.

Just as it looks like the reigning World Heavyweight Champion is being overwhelmed,the clock counts down to the next entry in this match.

The other half of the Enforcers, G-Money Briggs, enters this match at the #12 spot.

Prof. X: This isn’t good at all. The Enforcers AND Carnage are together in this match. All of the Machine’s heavy-hitters all at once.
Francine: This is going to get really ugly, people.
CM Punk: You can easily tell that from the looks of their faces.
The Carter: At this point, it should be legal to bring a firearm into this match to even the odds…

Joanna Tarzanna shows no fear and greets G-Money with another Superwoman Punch. The Enforcer caught her out of the air in a Front Fireman’s Carry and tosses her into the arms of the Mega Busters and Daniel Widdel. Dequan knocks them all to the floor with a huge Bullet (The Pounce). The Enforcers are officially united in this match, much like the Mega Busters, and now that this match has two established tag teams in this match, things are starting to fall into the Machine’s favor.

CM Punk: I suppose it’s time…
The Carter: For what?
Francine: It’s CLOBBERIN’ time! That’s what.
CM Punk: I would sue you for gimmick infringement but I’m in a good mood so I’ll give you a free pass this time, Francine.

With everyone down and out, CM Punk finally makes his presence known with kendo stick shots to G-Money Briggs. The Best in the World dodges another incoming Bullet - literally - and capitalizes with White Russian Legsweep (Russian Legsweep assisted with kendo stick a la Sandman) as the timer counts down.

The “Queen of Submission” Casey Cortez enters this match at the #13.

The Carter: Casey’s out here at unlucky number 13.
Prof. X: Casey is one half of the reigning GZWA Tag Team Champions. It’s apparent that she doesn’t need any luck.
Francine: It’s more like it’s unlucky for those in the ring with her.

Casey stood at bottom of the entrance ramp with her arms folded surveying the battlefield chaos for a moment in amusement at what’s going on.

CM Punk is still in the midst of the festivities and jumps on the back of the recovering Carnage, choking him with the kendo stick. Carnage flips Punk over his shoulder to counter and broke the kendo stick over his knee.

The Carter: Carnage’s playing the part of the big bully on the playground breaking all of the other kids’ toys since he can’t have them.
Francine: I'm sure that happened to you a lot... 

Just as it seemed like Casey was ready to take a side the clock ticked down to the next entry in this match.

Lilith “Shooting Star” Danielson makes her GZWA debut as the #14 entry into the Riot Match.

The Carter: There’s been some critics that have said it’s crazy to think that newly signed Superstars and Vixens would want to debut in a match like this. I’m personally kinda split on this. What are your thoughts on the matter?
Francine: It depends on your experience and confidence level really. I honestly think that these newbies know that they aren’t going to win this entire thing, but are looking to impress the GZWA Nation, along with their peers with their performance in this match.
Prof. X: It definitely leaves an exclamation point on your debut match or appearance in the company if these rookies manage to somehow take down some of the best competition GZWA has to offer.

Lilith introduced herself to the Queen of Submission by attacking Casey from behind with baseball bat with stars painted on it. With the Queen of Submission down on the floor, Lilith wasted no time trying to steal a quick elimination among the chaos of this match.

ONE…

TWO…

T--NO!!!

Casey powers out of the pin attempt, throwing Lilith to the bottom of the entrance ramp. Casey didn’t take too kindly to Lilith’s gesture and fired back with a Clothesline from Hell while charging down the ramp. Lilith stopped Casey in her tracks with a Headbutt to Casey’s stomach to force the Queen of Submission to double over. This left Casey wide open to the pending DDT to the floor as the time counts down.

Blake Harper enters this match at #15.

She quickly races down to come to assist CM Punk against the members of the Machine at ringside. CM Punk prepared to hit a homerun with his kendo stick aimed at the waking Hardcore Monster. Sensing the pending danger, CM Punk moved out of the way of an incoming Bullet (Pounce) from Dequan Wallace. To the horror of the Best in the World, he spun around to see Dequan hit Blake head on and send her crashing through the barricade. G-Money Briggs head Punk at bay in a Full Nelson while Dequan pins Blake.

ONE…

Zoey Valentine: Blake Harper has been eliminated!

Prof. X: DAMN HIM! SHE’S WOMAN, DAMMIT!!
Francine: Calm down there, professor. She knew the risks coming out here. I don’t want to make excuses for the Machine’s villainy but at least the EMTs are quick to respond.
The Carter: At least they aren’t going to need crazy glue to put her back together like they are going to need for Ry Drake…
Francine: He’s still alive over there? I completely forgot about him still being in this match…
Prof. X: With so much chaos going on, it’s hard to keep track of who’s still alive and kicking this in this thing.

The EMTs are wheeling Blake Harper out on a stretcher. CM Punk elbows G-Money in the gut and follows them backstage, but the Enforcers are quick to follow.

Back on the other side of the ring, the Shooting Star continued her offense to the waking Queen of Submission with a Snapmare. The maneuver left Casey in a seated position, leaving her ripe for the follow-up Rolling Neck Snap by Lilith.

The Shooting Star aims for the kill as the positions herself on the top rope. She took flight with her patented finishing move, Lilith’s Comet (Shooting Star Press). Lilith covered Casey after the impact in a pin.

ONE…

THRE---NO!!

Casey shoves the young rookie off of her to break the pin. The Queen of Submission wisely rolls out onto the ring apron for a breather as the timer counts down.

Prince Pretty AKA Tyler Breeze made his in-ring debut at #16 in this match.

Unlike everyone else preoccupied with their own affairs in this match, Tyler Breeze sought out an easy elimination by directing his attention to the Psycho Menace finally staggering back to his feet in the ring. Prince Pretty struck with a Beauty Shot (Running Spinning Wheel Kick) upon arrival.

ONE…

TWO…

THR---NO!!!

Tyler Breeze is in disbelief along with the rest of the GZWA Nation.

Prof. X: I’m with Tyler. How is Ry Drake able to kick out after that mauling he endured at the hands of Jaser Cruz?
The Carter: I’m guessing someone handed him a sensu bean.
Francine: Shut up, Carter. This isn’t one of your silly cartoons. This is real life.

Tyler Breeze didn’t allow this setback to derail his plans of glory in this match. He positioned himself on the top rope for a Missile Dropkick to the waking Ry Drake. The Psycho Menace thwarted Prince Pretty’s flight plans by springing up to the top rope and removing him from his position with a Flip Bottom (Moonsault Side Slam). After their bodies hit the canvas, Breeze trapped Drake into an inside cradle.

ONE…

TWO…

THRE---NO!!!

Tyler Breeze threw a fit on the mat after Ry Drake managed to kick out of another near-fall. Prince Pretty stomped his foot in a preparation for a Supermodel Kick (Super Kick) as Ry Drake slowly rose back to his feet. The Psycho Menace ducks the incoming kick and leaps out of the ring with a Suicide Dive into Carnage, Joanna Tarzanna, Daniel Widdel, and the Mega Busters all grouped together at ringside.

As Tyler celebrates the carnage he's caused, the timer ticks down to zero, and “Give It Up” by Knife Party hits the speakers. No video comes on the screen, but the LED ribbons and the Titantron show a heart monitor pattern. Tyler looks on with a quizzical look on his face, as do the announce team.

Prof. X: That isn’t an entrance theme I recognize. Have you been made aware of anything like this, guys?
The Carter: Not to my knowledge.

When the lyrics kick in, the heart monitor turns into a waveform pattern matching the music. Then the crescendo builds, and the video changes to a hooded figure walking down the hallway to the Gorilla position. In the final moments of the crescendo, the figure starts swinging a kendo stick back and forth. The crowd, Tyler and the other competitors all realize what this means. The crowd starts to go ballistic and Tyler begins to panic as the lights go out.

The Carter: Oh my god, you guys, that can only be one man!
Francine: Oh, great…

The bass drops, a pyro goes off, and the lights come on to reveal that “The Next Level” Mike Bradley has indeed made his triumphant return to GZWA! As he triumphantly holds his kendo stick high above his head, the crowd breaks out in a deafening “Holy shit!” chant in time with the music.

Prof. X: I think I’ve seen a ghost! We knew Mike was coming back, but not this early!
The Carter: You think you’ve seen a ghost? Look at the faces of the guys in the ring!
Francine: But why is Tyler so concerned?

Mike paces back and forth, not taking his eyes off of Tyler, who tries to recompose himself and challenge Mike to come after him. Mike stops, reaches into his hoodie pocket, and pulls out a microphone. The crowd roars and breaks out in a "Bradley! Bradley!" chant as the music dies down and Mike brings to the microphone to his lips with a wry smile.

"What's the matter, Tyler? You look a little scared. Why should you be scared of me? You're new here. You don't know the first thing about me. Why do you care?"

Tyler continues yelling at him, but Mike cuts him off.

"Ah ah ah, shut it! You know damn well why you've got your tail between your legs! Because I know it was you!"

The crowd gasps and begins to boo Tyler mercilessly. Tyler looks around with an incredulous look to him. Mike points his kendo stick at him.

"Look, son, don't you try to deny it! You and Nikki Bella set me up to try and end my comeback before it could even begin! You were the one who hammered away at me with that steel chair while I could barely walk! You busted my face open, gave me a concussion and left me lying in a pool of my own blood! You thought with that hood on no one would know it was you! Well, the good folks at Colonial Life Arena in Columbia, South Carolina showed me security tape of you celebrating your attack with Nikki!"

The crowd rains boos on Tyler even more as he starts to seethe.

"The blood is on your hands, vengeance is mine and now Mike's. Gonna. Kill. YOU!!!"

Mike tosses the microphone aside and sprints to the ring. He somersaults underneath the second rope and unleashes unholy retribution upon the man who tried to derail his comeback. As he does so, the crowd breaks into a roaring chant of “Mike’s gonna kill you!” With Tyler staggering Mike lines him up, assumes his batting stance and unleashes a monstrous Swing for the Fences (baseball-style kendo stick shot to the head) and pins him with ease.

ONE...

THREE!

Zoey Valentine: Tyler Breeze has been eliminated!

As Tyler's lifeless body is dragged out of the ring, Mike looks out to the crowd and tosses his kendo stick out of the ring like Jose Bautista of the Toronto Blue Jays after his home run in Game 5 of the 2015 American League Division Series. With the emotion of the crowd rushing through him like fire, he screams “GIVE ME A FUCKING MICROPHONE!” and receives it from one of the ringside workers.

“GUESS WHO’S BACK, MOTHERFUCKERS!!!!”

The crowd responds with a resounding “Welcome back!” chant. Mike turns towards Tyler as the trainers carry him to the back.

“Oh, and Tyler, if you can hear me, tell Nikki she's fucking next!!"

Mike turns back towards the crowd.

"You know, karma is a bitch, and what you just saw me do to that overrated, irrelevant pretty boy is just a sample of things to come now that I’m back and better than ever!”

During Mike’s boasting, the next competitor has made their way to the ring. It’s none other than the former GZWA Television champion himself, the man who defeated Mike Bradley for the title prior to his departure, “The Architect” Chris Matthews. The Architect enters this match at the #18 spot.

Francine: This should be interesting, that’s for sure. I’m sure this has been bottling up for a while.
The Carter: What are you talking about? If Matthews can beat Mike before he can do it again! I thought you would love to see someone shut the guy up?
Francine: That’s true, but I’d pay for someone to come out here and shut BOTH of you up…

Matthews launches himself into the ring, attacking from behind with a Springboard Clothesline. The Next Level ducks underneath the incoming Clothesline and struck Matthews over the back of his neck with the microphone. Mike then instantly applies the Boston Strangler to the former Television Champion in the middle of the ring. The attack from the foreign object already did it’s job as Matthews was in no condition to resist the hold and quickly tapped out.

Zoey Valentine: Chris Matthews has been eliminated!

“Same goes for you too, jackass! Now where was I? You're probably wondering, how the hell am I back so soon? Well, as soon as I came to after that beating from Tyler and Nikki, I swore that I was going to crank up the pace on my rehab and come back as soon as fucking possible! I told my physical therapist that the only thing that would keep me from coming back for this match was another heart failure! I spent 12 hours a day in PT to get ready for this moment, and I’m not here just to dispatch of Tyler and be satisfied with that. I’m back to win this match and claim the GZWA World Heavyweight Championship!”

Suicide swung down to the ring on a zipline in the #19 entry in this match.

Something is wrong as the line doesn’t seem stable and Suicide let’s go of the line prematurely. The Savior falls awkwardly onto the ropes and tumbles into the ring, clutching his ribs.

Prof. X: Thank goodness that wasn’t too high of a drop or we would have had a tragedy on our hands.
Francine: Stay tuned. I think we still might have one if Suicide looks to compete after taking a crash landing like that.
The Carter: Hence the name, Franny.
Francine: Ha, good point. Oh god, hell must’ve froze over if I actually laughed at something you said…
Prof. X: There’s a first for everything…
Francine: No, no. I’m going to see a doctor after this show. I must be hysterical or coming down with something.
The Carter: Don’t worry, it’s just jungle fever.
Francine: Not even your wildest dreams… I won’t ever be that sick.

The Next Level showed no mercy as the lone member of the Straight-Edge Saviors staggered to his feet and experienced first-hand the Final Boss (Moonsault Side Slam). Mike arrogantly covered Suicide with his foot planted firmly in his ribcage.

Zoey Valentine: Suicide has been eliminated!

“Boy, everybody wants to kill me huh? I don't blame you. Before I retired, I was the hottest ticket in this company! Who wouldn't want to tear my head off? I’ve been a part of this company for four and a half years. I’m a two-time Television Champion and the longest-reigning such champ in;company history. And you know all my accolades before wrestling. But that’s not enough for me. I’m a state champion football and track athlete, I’m a world ;champion b-boy, but I’m still not a world champion wrestler. Without a doubt I’m the best wrestler to step foot in this company and not yet win the World Title. And that's not an honor I want to have attached to my name! So guess what? That changes now! You see all these people around me? You guys;better listen up – it’s me against all of you. I know you don’t like me. You think I’m obnoxious, you think I talk too much, hell, you probably wish I actually did die in the ring the last time I was here. And all I gotta say to for that is… FUCK YOU! FUCK YOU! AND FUCK YOU!"

The other competitors are just as stunned at Mike's expletive-laden rant as the crowd as he points to all of them.

"You are mere stepping stones on my road to complete the most epic comeback in the history of not only professional wrestling, but all sports in all the world of all time! I’m not stopping until I’ve got that big gold belt strapped firmly around my waist! I saw the light at the end of the tunnel, said “Fuck that shit!” and banged a U-turn back to right here in Atlanta!”

The crowd goes nuts for the local shoutout.

“I’m a man on a mission, a man on fire, a man with nothing to lose and everything to gain! Fuck all that, I AM THE MAN!! AND YOU BETTER GET ON MY LEVEL!!”

AND IF YOU DON’T KNOW…

… NOW YOU KNOW!

He forcefully tosses the microphone out of the ring as the clock counts down for the next competitor.

“The Emo Warrior”Jimmy Jacobs is the #20 entry into this match. And he’s eager to get involved in the action.

To the surprise of the GZWA Nation, he doesn’t join the war against the Hardcore Monster but opts to shut up the returning Mike Bradley. Both Superstars meet in the center of the ring and trade blows. Mike makes a statement with a Pimp Slap to the Emo Warrior, but Jimmy returned the favor with a Knee Smash. Both Superstars reeled back and hit the ropes before going head to head. They collide head-on in the middle of the ring with two simultaneous Spears.

Francine: What are they doing, open auditions for the WWE Production of Knucklehead 2?
The Carter: Well, anything is better than the Chaperone…

The Emo Warrior is first to return his feet, but Mike isn’t too far behind him. The Next Level made the first move with a Tornado DDT, but the Emo Warrior sent Mike into the ropes to counter. Jimmy Jacobs caught Mike on the rebound with a Tilt-a-Whirl Backbreaker. Mike Bradley used the momentum to swing himself into position and applied the Boston Strangler (Rear Naked Choke with Body Scissors) to Jacobs. Jimmy wasn’t ready nor willing to submit to the hold like Matthews earlier in this match. The Emo Warrior pulled his signature steel pike out of his boot and drew first blood by wounding Mike in the leg with it. Jimmy Jacobs continued to struggle against the hold as the clock counted down.

“The Glamazon” Beth Phoenix is the #21 entry in this match.

Prof. X: Wow, after the destruction that she caused in the Vixen Championship match earlier tonight, I’m surprised that the Glamazon would make an appearance here.
Francine: This should be interesting for sure. Doesn’t she have some history with Lil Jimmy here?
The Carter: My sources tell me that they had a fling… or potentially still carry a flame for each other.
Francine: I suggest you don’t say that too loud or Beth might come over here and hurt you, Carter. Then again, shout it to the heavens for everyone can hear it.

The Next Level winched in pain long from his wounded leg long enough to allow Jacobs to free himself in an unorthodox manner. He willed himself back to his feet and kicked off the nearby corner post with a modified Contra Code (Shiranui).

Jimmy Jacobs holds the ropes open and welcomes Beth Phoenix into the ring.

Prof. X: Uh oh. Looks like we’ve got another potential partnership if this power couple aims to strike an alliance in this match.
The Carter: I wonder what they do on date night…
Francine: Stranger things have happened around here.

Jimmy Jacobs offers the fallen Mike Bradley to the Glamazon to finish off. She respectfully declines, so the Emo Warrior took it into himself to finish Bradley off. Jacobs struck with another Spear to the waking Bradley. The Next Level somersaults over the attack but falls victim to a pending Low Blow from the Glamazon.

The Carter: Not the Bradley family jewels!!
Francine: Well that’s one way to shut Bradley up…

Jimmy Jacobs raised Beth’s arm in triumph as Bradley laid at their feet. Before Jacobs could take the opportunity to cover the Next Level, Beth serves a Low Blow to the Emo Warrior as well.

The Carter: Beth Phoenix just gave new meaning to feminine protection!
Prof. X: I’m guessing that he didn’t return her phone calls and wants the glory for herself...
Francine: Makes perfect sense to me.

With Superstars down and out, Beth Phoenix finds that she’s not alone in the ring as she comes eye to eye with another amazon - Casey Cortez. The two female powerhouses stare down as the clock ticks down.

SM Raye (debut) is the #22 entry for this match.

Casey and Beth lock horns in a test of strength. It seems to be a stalemate until maneuvers behind Casey and goes for the Glam Slam on the Queen of Submission. Casey arm drags the Glamazon down to the mat but keeps her arms interlocked with her own as she applies the Agony Matrix (Royal Butterfly). Beth swung forcefully to free herself with Swinging Neckbreaker to drop both amazons to the mat.

Prof. X: We saw SM Raye make his first appearance in the company as part of Controversial Corner on Xplosion. I’m anxious to see what he’s capable of in the ring.
The Carter: The only thing I’m concerned with is what this guy is capable of in the ring… Well, that AND the fact how he’s friends with a fox like Serai Leone.
Francine: Easy horn dog… Remember that woman is the same woman who managed to defeat Amanda Cortez earlier tonight in a Three Stages of Hell Match.
Prof. X: Hold that thought you two… something’s wrong. No one isn’t coming out to the ring. Wait, I’m getting word that something is going on backstage. Can we get some a camera back there?

The cameras switch backstage to the sight of Blake Harper being loaded into an ambulance with CM Punk looking to join them to the ride to the hospital, but the Enforcers attack the Best in the World from behind. G-Money Briggs hurls Punk against the side of the ambulance with a Release Crucifix Powerbomb. The Enforcers then lift Punk onto their shoulders and carry him back out to the ring on their shoulders like a martyr.

The crowd boos at the return of the Enforcers carrying a battered and beaten CM Punk out from behind the entrance curtain and onto the stage as if he’s being crucified on the cross. Those boos turn into the cheers as SM Raye attacks the Enforcers from behind with a pair of Desolation I’s (Chris Hero’s Death Blow) to Dequan Wallace and G-Money Briggs. Raye helps Punk to his feet and the duo continue battling the Enforcers off the side of the stage as the clock counts down.

“The Beautiful Dragon” Mei Long races through the crowd and slides into the ring to make her return to GZWA in the #23 spot of this match.

She immediately comes face to face with the Glamazon as the crowd is on their feet.

Prof. X: This is the first time in roughly two years since these two women have shared the same ring. Let it be known that these were the last two women to hold the Women’s Championship before it was rebranded as the Vixen Championship by Raven.
Francine: Beth has been itching for this rematch for a while now. Mei Long might want to be careful before she finds herself back in the hospital after her lengthy stint on the sidelines with an injury.
The Carter: Not that I’m complaining but wasn’t she fired by the Machine? How is she able to compete in this match?
Francine: Something tells me that Serena Dent had a hand at selecting entries for this match…

Mei Long and Beth Phoenix motion to continue their heated rivalry where it left off those many months ago, but those plans are temporarily postponed. Lilith Danielson and Joanna Tarzanna aren’t impressed in the least at these former champions in their wake and attacks from both sides of the ring. The Jungle Girl levels the Glamazon to the mat with a Diving Double Axe Handle. The Beautiful Dragon sought out to stop Lilith with a Windmill Kick to the incoming Shooting Star. Lilith ducks underneath the kick with ease and tossed Mei over the top rope with a Release German Suplex. Mei Long hung onto the ropes and manages to land on the ring apron. The Beautiful Dragon launched herself back into the ring towards the unsuspecting Shooting Star with the Sun Wukong’s Spirit (Springboard Frankensteiner). Joanna sought to finish Beth off with a Spear but Super Kick to the jaw stunned her long enough for Beth Phoenix to drop her to canvas with the Down in Flames (Michinoku Driver).

Mei Long and Beth Phoenix stare daggers at each other as they pin both Lilith and Joanna simultaneously.

Zoey Valentine: Joanna Tarzanna and Lilith Danielson have been eliminated!!

We’re back to where this encounter began as Mei Long and Beth Phoenix stare down with the clock counting down to the next entry in this match.

“The Boss Chick” Sabrina Beauvoir makes her GZWA debut as the #24 entry in this match to the sound of "Not Gonna Die" by Skillet. The music cues up loudly as the stadium jumps onto there feet as the lights flash brightly golden and purple for five counts. Then Sabrina runs up from behind the curtains and stands in the middle of the stage and plants her feet widely and grabs her the bottom of her large over-shirt. Jumping up and down in theme of the music she rips off the shirt off and over her head to swing it around. Finally she tosses it out to the fans next to the stage. Pointing out to the people in the crowd feeding her adrenaline, she smiles and winks at the cameras. Sabrina Beau skips and lightly jogs down the ramp way making sure to touch her Indie Fans hands. Letting them know that they had finally made it to the big time.

Prof. X: Now this is definitely a new face I haven’t seen around in the company. Do you have any idea who she is, Carter?
The Carter: (Wolf howls) “GODDAMN! I don’t know who she is but I know for a fact that she’s fine as a dime!”
Francine: I hear she’s one of Brooklyn Glamourous’ budding students from her days running BSW. Maybe she’s in this thing as a tryout of sorts.
Prof. X: The Machine must not like her if they are going to send her out here to get killed by Carnage…

While Mei Long and Beth Phoenix are preoccupied with their stare down, they have completely taken their eyes off of the Queen of Submission, who attacks with a Double Clothesline to floor both Vixens. Sabrina enters the ring with a Springboard Bulldog to Casey. After Casey’s head bounced off the canvas, Sabrina continued her offense with a Shining Wizard to the waking Queen of Submission. Casey sprung back up to her feet and stopped Sabrina flat with a Big Boot to the face to counter. Sabrina’s interference did nothing but anger the Queen of Submission and prompted her to rid herself of this annoyance with the Fembomb (Jacknife Powerbomb). Casey hoisted the Boss Chick onto her shoulders for the maneuver, but Casey found herself knocked into the corner with a spear by the Glamazon. Sabrina hopped off of Casey’s shoulders and safely positioned herself on the top rope. The Beautiful Dragon closes in strike both the Glamazon and Queen of Submission with a Running Bicycle Kick to the corner. The Boss Chick saw her golden opportunity and intervened with the Beau*Full Dreams (Shooting Star DDT) to Mei Long to narrowly avoid being rammed in the corner by Beth and Casey’s bodies. Sabrina covers Mei Long.

Zoey Valentine: Mei Long has been eliminated!!

Much like the Beautiful Dragon, “The Cuban Hooligan” Rocky Romero made his return to GZWA as the #25 entry in this match.

Francine: Speaking of upsets, I don’t think Rocky’s too keen on his girlfriend being eliminated before he even got out here.
The Carter: At least he gets to go home with a hottie like that!

Casey hammers Beth over her back with a Double Axe Handle, but Beth knocks the wind out of her sails with a series of Shoulder Thrusts in the corner. The Glamazon then positioned the Queen of Submission. The two Vixens trade blows as Beth attempts a Top Rope Fishersman’s Suplex. Casey headbutts Beth and the Glamazon gave her one right back. Beth struggled to perform the maneuver as the two Vixens lost their footing. Both female powerhouses fell down to the floor. The live crowd makes a collective gasp of horror.

Prof. X: That spill to the floor didn’t look too good.
Francine: At least they are both breathing down there…
The Carter: Something’s going on the referees are making a decision!

ONE…

The two officials argue the count until they both manually agree that both Beth Phoenix and Casey Cortez’s shoulders pinned to the floor with their arms covering the other as they laid out on the ringside floor. They share their decision to Zoey Valentine who makes it official to the GZWA Nation.

Zoey Valentine: As the result of double elimination, both Casey Cortez and Beth Phoenix have been eliminated.

Sabrina Beauvoir was so caught up in the spectacle of the amazons taking each other at ringside that she didn’t even notice the Cuban Hooligan sliding into the ring. He promptly lays her out with a Running Standing Shiranui. Rocky Romero pins Sabrina Beauvoir with a rather vulgar pin to avenge Mei Long in his own way to the delight of the crowd. 

The Carter: I approve of Rocky’s methods.
Francine: Of course you do, you pervert.

ONE…

TWO…

THREE!!!

Zoey Valentine: Sabrina Beauvoir has been eliminated!!

The Cuban Hooligan glances at his fellow cohorts from the Machine fighting at the top of the stage and at ringside only to defy them all with the chair shot heard around the world to the skull of Carnage. Romero left the Hardcore Monster to the mercy of his adversaries at ringside.

On the side of the stage, SM Raye has the Enforcers stretched out on top of the stage equipment and invites Punk to finish them off. Punk signals for the Randy Savage style Diving Elbow Drop and jumps down from the edge of the stage. CM Punk’s body crashes on top of the Enforcers - not willingly, but at the hand of a mid-air Ace Crusher at the hand of SM Raye. The GZWA Nation is left in shock as the Best in the World is out cold among the bodies at the side of the stage.

Prof. X: SM Raye has laid out the Best in the World!
Francine: Well he did say he was going to shake GZWA at the foundation. That’s definitely one way to do it.

SM Raye kicks Punk’s body off of the Enforcers and pins him himself.

The second half of the reigning GZWA Tag Team Champions, “Tattooed Beauty” Laura Jackson, enters this match at the #26 spot.


The Tattooed Beauty doesn’t look too happy as she orders Casey to her feet while Beth Phoenix shoves the medical staff away and heads backstage. To the surprise of the GZWA Nation, the MisFits aid the Hardcore Monster by dealing with the other weary Superstars at ringside. One by one, the MisFits serve Spike Piledrivers to Ry Drake, Mike Bradley, and Daniel Widdel.

When it came time for the Emo Warrior to be served his healthy dose of punishment from the tag team champions, Jimmy Jacobs drops to his knees proposing an alliance. Unlike Beth Phoenix, Laura Jackson didn’t harbor any favorable emotions towards Jimmy Jacobs and literally erupts into laughter at his proposal. Jacobs didn’t take too kindly at being laughed at and lunged in with a point-blank Spear. Laura stopped him flat with a Splitting Headcase (Jumping Double Knees to the Head), allowing Casey to catch him into position for the Spike Piledriver. Laura took the honor of pinning him herself as Casey left Laura on her own as the damage has been done to the rest of the competition.

Zoey Valentine: Jimmy Jacobs has been eliminated!

While the Tattooed Beauty proud of the chaos that she has laid waste to the Emo Warrior, the clock ticks down.

“Modern Day Warrior” Gabriel Wingue enters this match at the #27 spot as the lone survivor of the Straight-Edge Saviors.

At ringside, the Mega Busters and Rocky Romero have the Hardcore Monster against the ropes with a Diving High Knee from ring apron by Romero and a Poetry in Motion by the Mega Busters at ringside. Carnage caught Psycho Sagus out of the air during the Poetry in Motion and threw him right back at the Cuban Hooligan in the form of a Buckle Bomb (Running Release Powerbomb) to knock Rocky Romero against the ring apron. Carnage then reeled Sagus back in and dropped him over the back of Matthew Miles with the Total Annihilation (Elgin’s Spinning Sitout Powerbomb). Carnage pins both of the Mega Busters simultaneously.

ONE…

Zoey Valentine: The Mega Busters have been eliminated!!

The Hardcore Monster’s reign of terror doesn’t stop there. Carnage sprung towards the Cuban Hooligan and pinned him against the ring apron with a Two Handed Choke.

The Carter: Carnage is strangling the life out of Rocky Romero for his betrayal to the Machine!
Prof. X: Looks like Gabriel Wingue got some trouble to deal with of his own.
Francine: Please bare with us, GZWA fans. There’s so much going on in this match to cover at once. We’re doing our best to keep our eyes on everything.

Back up on the stage, the Modern Day Warrior attempts to avenge the Best in the World. SM Raye and Gabe fight onstage, exchanging blow after blow. Gabriel Wingue tips the scales into his favor starting with a Snap Suplex and followed suit with a Shining Wizard. Gabe signaled for the Flux Capacitor off the stage. SM Raye wasn’t willing to take the plunge and spun out of position, only to drop Gabe to his knees with another well-placed Desolation I (Chris Hero’s Death Blow) to counter. SM Raye commits one more heinous act by tossing Gabe off the stage.

Gabe’s body lands next to CM Punk’s own among the debris. Raye pins the last member of the Straight-Edge Saviors among a chorus of boos from the live crowd in attendance.

The final member of the Machine, “The Statement” Victor Phillips, joins this match at the #28 spot.

Back at ringside, Rocky Romero thumbs Carnage’s eyes to free himself in an act of desperation. The Beautiful Dragon hands him a steel chair and the couple sought out to eliminate the Hardcore Monster on their own with a Con-Chair-to. Unfortunately, there was no luck on that outcome as Carnage backed away enough to cause Mei and Rocky to hit their each other’s steel chairs. While Rocky and Mei dropped their chairs from the sting of the blows, Carnage took advantage of the situation with a Double Chokeslam to the defiant couple. Carnage covers Romero.

ONE…

TWO…

Zoey Valentine: Rocky Romero has been eliminated!

Victor Phillips stood at the top of the ramp, applauding Carnage and SM Raye’s work to the Straight-Edge Saviors and the other offenders to the Machine, but stopped to help the Enforcers to their feet.

Prof. X: We’re down to the last few competitors in this match. The nightmare is coming true… it’s looking like the Machine will win this thing.
The Carter: Don’t give up hope yet, professor. We still got some of the guys left, plus there’s two more entries left. Anything can happen by the end of this thing.
Francine: Hard to imagine any other outcome with the Machine’s own laying waste to most of the opposition out there.

Now that the Hardcore Monster, SM Raye, along with Victor Phillips, Dequan Wallace, and G-Money Briggs have joined Laura Jackson back in the ring, it looks like the end of the road for the remaining Superstars as the clock counts down with these battle-tested warriors slowly rising to their feet.

“The Goddess” Amanda Cortez enters this match as the #29 entry.

Prof. X: Amanda was the last person I thought would come out here in this match, especially after going to Hell and beyond in her match against Serai Leone earlier tonight.
Francine: Don’t think that match didn’t have it’s toll on her. Look how she’s dragging herself down here.
The Carter: Maybe she may want to reconsider coming down here and getting in this mess.

Amanda entered the chaos in this match with her own brand of chaos as she decked Dequan Wallace to the mat with a Springboard Flying Clothesline, armed with signature brass knuckles. The blow was enough to bring the Enforcer down to his knees, in which Mike Bradley was more than happy to oblige with some hospitality in the form of the Final Boss (Moonsault Side Slam). The Next Level covers Dequan while Amanda makes sure to stop G-Money Briggs from breaking the pin with a #1 Stunna (Stone Cold Stunner).

Francine: Mike and Amanda working together!!?? Okay, now I’ve seen everything…

ONE…

Zoey Valentine: Dequan Wallace has been eliminated!

It looks like the tables have turned with this battle against the Machine starting to balance out with both forces reaching a stalemate as the clock ticks down to the last entry in this match.

After countdown there’s no one shown from entrance ramp, instead audience looks on with awe as “The Icon” Sting appears from the rafters and lowers himself down to the ring on a rope with his trademark baseball bat in hand.

Prof. X: THE MAN, THE LEGEND! STING HAS ARRIVED IN GZWA!!
Francine: He definitely looks ready for business too.
The Carter: Who’s side is he on?

Everyone stops in their tracks as Sting looks around at all of the competitors left in the ring. The Icon made his intentions clear as day once he raised his black baseball bat and pointed it directly at the Hardcore Monster. Sting single-handedly levels all of the members of the Machine coming his way with his bat before dropping Carnage to the mat with the Scorpion Deathdrop (Diving Reverse DDT).

The crowd is on their feet as Sting shouts, “WOOOOOOOOOO!!!!” before applying the Scorpion Deathlock to the Hardcore Monster.

Prof. X: You know that the Machine didn’t have any idea that the Stinger was going to make his debut tonight. No one did! To see him taking on the Machine all on his own is inspirational.
Francine: I’m sure the other competitors would help but they’ve been in this thing a lot longer than he has.

Victor Phillips hammers Sting over his back with his own bat to break the hold to save the Hardcore Monster. Once back on his feet, Carnage doesn’t play any games. He hurled the Icon into the corner like a lawn dart with the Buckle Bomb. G-Money Briggs and Victor Phillips mocked the Icon with Stinger Splashes into the corner one after another. Sting showed no fear and beat on his chest as they looked on in disbelief as he leveled them to the mat with a Double Clothesline. Carnage stopped his momentum flat by dropping him onto the ropes with a Military Press Stungun followed by the Total Annihilation (Spinning Sitout Powerbomb) for the pin.

Zoey Valentine: Sting has been eliminated!

Amanda wanted to come to the aid of the Icon but the pain inflicted upon her her earlier that night was causing her to wince in pain from the action she’s gotten herself into this match so far. It was enough of a distraction for her to drop her brass knuckles. The Tattooed Beauty wasted no time in using them on her former leader and friend to leave her out cold for the pin.

ONE…

Zoey Valentine: Amanda Cortez has been eliminated!

With G-Money Briggs and Victor Phillips down, Ry Drake and Daniel Widdel wasted no time in applying simultaneous submissions - Narcotic (Koji Clutch) and Target Locked (Inverted Boston Crab) to the Machine’s own. The two Superstars quickly submit leaving this down to six competitors remaining in this match.

Zoey Valentine: As result of submission, G-Money Briggs and Victor Phillips have both been eliminated!

Prof. X: We’re down to the bottom six challengers left in this match - Carnage, SM Raye, Mike Bradley, Ry Drake, Daniel Widdel, and Laura Jackson.
Francine: Correction. That’s five challengers and one blood-thirsty champion.
The Carter: Carnage has no one left to have his back!
Francine: That doesn’t make him any less deadly. Besides, if it was easy to take this Superstar down then someone would have done it so far.

Everyone is circling around Carnage. It’s clear that there’s no more partnerships and it’s every man (or woman) for themselves. Mike Bradley made the charge straight for Carnage with the Brookline Bridge (Spear) but SM Raye intervened with an Exploder Suplex into the corner. The maneuver left Mike into a tree of woe position. Raye closed in with Running Dropkick to Mike’s skull but a backflip out of the corner propels the Next Level overhead with a Backflip DDT to the controversial Superstar. Mike motions for an Ankle Lock but Raye traps him into a Small Package lifted into an inverted Go To Sleep (WTFU). With the Next Level doubled over from the impact, Raye finishes him off with the Desolation II (Roaring Elbow to the back of the head) and went for the win.

ONE…

TWO…

THREE!!!

Zoey Valentine: Mike Bradley has been eliminated!

Carnage didn’t take any chances and hit the Burning Hammer (Reverse Death Valley Driver) on SM Raye while he was preoccupied with patting himself on the back and covered Raye.

ONE…

TWO…

THREE!!!

Zoey Valentine: SM Raye has been eliminated!!

After Raye’s elimination, Daniel Widdel latches onto the Hardcore Monster’s shoulders with a Rear Naked Choke. The Psycho Menace brought Carnage to his knees with a Chop Block using a steel chair. Ry Drake and Laura Jackson then directed a Double Enzuigiri to Carnage’s skull. Somehow, the Hardcore Monster is still not showing signs of willingness to submit to Widdel’s hold. The Tattooed Beauty arms herself with the chair and swings at Carnage’s face. Carnage flips Widdel over his shoulder in time to take the full force of the blow instead. Laura took the opportunity to finish off the Superstar with the Tampa Driver (Cradle Piledriver).

ONE…

TWO…

THREE!!!

Zoey Valentine: Daniel Widdel has been eliminated!!

After eliminating the Television Champion, Carnage dragged the Tattooed Beauty off of Widdel into an application of the Stretch Muffler. Laura fought tooth and nail against the hold, trying to crawl away to reach the ropes. Carnage drags her back, but Laura managed to grab onto something else. She smashed the chair over Carnage’s skull to free herself. Carnage was sent reeling backwards from the blow and right into the Psycho Menace’s clutches into a Reverse DDT.

They could end it here but the Psycho Menace knew it’s going to take more to put the Hardcore Monster away for good. While Ry Drake is looking underneath the ring for more weapons, the Tattooed Beauty didn’t want to wait around. She wanted to end this NOW. She struck first with the Splitting Headcase (Double Jumping Knee to the head) to the slowing rising Monster and hit the ropes again after he was stunned from that blow. She returned on the rebound with the Bedtime (Spinning Roundhouse Kick to the ribs), but the Hardcore Monster used her momentum against her as slammed her to the canvas with authority with an explosive Black Hole Slam. Carnage covers Laura.

ONE…

TWO…

THREE!!!

Zoey Valentine: Laura Jackson has been eliminated!!

Prof. X: It’s all on Ry Drake’s shoulders now to end the tyranny of the Machine! You can do it, kid!

Carnage stood back up to see the Psycho Menace flying right at him from the top rope with a Flying Clothesline while armed with a steel chair wrapped in barb wire. Carnage slowly stood back up and Ry Drake leveled him to the mat again with the same offense.

Ry Drake raised his chair in the air before sliding out of the ring to get even MORE playthings. All of the fans from the front row around the ring are handing him chairs to toss into the ring. It’s not long before the Hardcore Monster is buried underneath a pile of chairs in the ring. Ry Drake ups the insanity even further by wedging his foot between the barb wire on the chair and jumping from the top rope with the Assassination (Jumping Curb Stomp) on top of the pile of chairs with Carnage’s body buried underneath. The Psycho Menace laid on top of the pile as he and the GZWA Nation counts along.

ONE…




TWO…




THRE-----NO!!!!

Everyone is in disbelief as Carnage manages to kick out from underneath the pile of steel chairs. Chants of “THAT WAS THREE!! THAT WAS THREE!!” erupt throughout the arena. Carnage staggers out of the debris and charges into the corner with a Big Splash. Ry Drake dove out of the way and dropkicks a chair into Carnage’s face to leave him slumped into the corner. The Psycho Menace positioned the Hardcore Monster onto the top rope and prepared for the Flipping Slam (Spanish Fly/Top Rope C4/Moonsault Side Slam). Ry Drake took flight, but he was the only Superstar to hit the canvas as the Hardcore Monster shoved him back down to Earth to counter, sending Psycho Menace crashing into the pile of steel chairs. The craziness didn’t stop there as Carnage came down from the heavens with a Flying Splash off the top rope and onto the Psycho Menace’s body among the litter of chairs filling up the ring. Carnage buried Drake alive as he laid on top of the pile of chairs as the referee made the count.

ONE…

TWO…

THREE!!!

Zoey Valentine: Ry Drake has been eliminated!! Your winner and STILL GZWA World Heavyweight Champion, Carnage!!

Prof. X: There you have it, folks. Despite a lot of close calls, the Hardcore Monster has managed to keep the championship within the hands of the Machine.
Francine: If tonight proved anything, there’s a lot of people willing to stand up and oppose the Machine. They aren’t going to take their oppression lying down.
The Carter: This Riot Control event was definitely a night to remember on a lot of levels.
Prof. X: That’s for sure, partner. That’s all the time we have tonight folks. Stay tuned for ReAction.
