Official GZWA Primetime Theme: I Want It All / We Will Rock You [Mash-Up] - Queen (feat. Armageddon)
Recorded Date: April 4, 2016
Air Date: April 20, 2016
Venue: Wells Fargo Center
Location: Philadelphia, PA
A shot of a smaller local gym not too far from the arena of our next live taping of GZWA’s Primetime is shown as we see the lights still on, even though it was getting relatively late. The punches against the punching bag echoed through the empty hall and we get a close up of fists hitting against the hard leather. Blake Harper took quite a beating at Riot Control with resulted in her short stint at the hospital. But now, back on her feet, the fiery fighter was once again training, back in the environment that felt safer to her than home. As she stopped to grab herself some water, she turned to look at male figure practicing with a dummy in the ring.
I still can’t believe how easily the Machine’s goon squad took us out…
“We had one off night. That’s all. Seemed like everyone was off that night since they still have the World Heavyweight Championship in their grasp…”
Blake walked closer to the ring as the camera zoomed out, showing both her and CM Punk looking at one another.
I thought Dequan was going to break me in half. All I remember is seeing him charge at me and then - the top of the ambulance car.
Punk shook his head as he leaned over the ring ropes to look back at her.
“My heart skipped a beat for a second there during that one. Thought I could have lost you there. I don’t want you taking any unnecessary risks just for my behalf. I’m a big boy. I can take care of myself.”
Well… I can’t just stand there and watch them gang up on you and Suicide. Big boys you are, but being outnumbered won’t help you win this war. You two need all the help you can get. That’s when Gabriel came in… That’s when I appeared. But with them all in one bunch, we are not enough.
Taking a few steps closer, Blake was now looking up at Punk, her arms resting against the bottom rope.
Punk sat down, Indian-style with his arms folded and sighed heavily, “So we’re really going to do this huh? Y’know, you and me….”
Moving through the ropes, she sat down right next to him, turning her head to the side to face him.
There is no other way around it… I think after we saw each other… It was inevitable.
Leaning her body a bit forward, a tad closer to him, Blake spoke in a softer voice.
Us. Together. No more hiding… One and only… Greatest team to enter the tournament.
CM Punk leaned towards her and whispered into her ear, “I would like that more than anything in the world… but you have to know that we’re going to have to tell the kids that they can’t sleep in our bed anymore.”
Blake pouted as she crossed her arms over her chest, looking away from him for a second.
Fine. I’ll tell Gabriel and Suicide that over ice cream at the zoo.
“Great. Better you than me. I’m awful at giving bad news.”
You’re awful in general. But that is besides the point. So, the fact is that we are entering the Stardom Tag Team Classic and are ready not only to get some payback against the Machine, but also enjoy our time while kicking ass and taking names.
“I warn you that I don’t play well with others. I have a knack for taking my ball and going home. Then again… you provide me enough eye candy to keep me interested in the game for the long haul. So who knows, I might stick around long-term for this one.”
I’m touched Lip. Simply filled with joy to know that my ass keeps you in the ring entertained. Too bad that there’s not much in for me in that.
Punk gasps, “You should be overjoyed to be in the company in the spectacle that is me! That’s life’s greatest reward. There are women who would die at the opportunity to spend a moment with me like we’re sharing right now, let alone be this close to me period! And yet you want more?”
Blake grinned widely as she turned to look at him.
You are so adorably cute when you’re upset that somebody is not impressed by the fact that you are breathing next to them.
“Don’t forget skipping around me in a circle with joy. That’s the important part.”
She couldn’t hold a straight face anymore as she started laughing uncontrollably.
Yes, showering you with rose petals and gummy bears.
“It’s streamers and confetti, thank you very much.”
You are such a douche chills inducing narcissist. I’ll never understand why I like you.
Punk shrugged, “And there’s a problem with that? I’m just comfortable being me, unlike most people.”
He patted Blake on the cheek and adds, “Don’t worry. Someday you’ll be as cool as me.”
Lord have mercy that I won’t. But hopefully you’ll be cool enough to keep with me in the tournament. After all, I hate not winning.
“Hmph… I hate sleeping alone more….But yes, we’re not going to lose to those Machine goons in this thing.”
A quick kiss on the lips as Blake jumped to her feet and stepped through the ropes, heading out towards the locker rooms. With a slight glance back, she winked at Punk.
See you back home, Lip.
As she disappeared in the locker room area the scene faded to black.
Eminem’s “Cinderella Man” hits the speakers and out to the stage comes Mike Bradley, making his first broadcast appearance since returning from his heart transplant. With his familiar kendo stick in hand, he plays to the crowd a bit before setting it down and breaking off a short breakdance routine, much to the delight of the fans in attendance.
Francine: God, the surgery didn't keep him on the sidelines, it didn't shut him up and it didn't stop this crap either.
The Carter: I'd like to see you try half the things this guy can do. You do realize he's a phenomenal athlete, right?
Prof. X: That's for sure, The Next Level has myriad accomplishments in football, track, breakdancing and wrestling, but as he said at Riot Control, one accolade that's eluded him is the GZWA World Title, and he's as intent as ever on claiming it.
Francine: I hope that's enough incentive for The Machine to tear this guy to shreds.
After finishing his routine, he takes a microphone from one of the ringside workers. He pauses to soak in the cheers of "Mikey! Mikey!" before bringing the microphone to his lips.
"Damn, that felt good! You feel good? I feel good!"
The crowd responds with another round of cheers.
"Well, after my disappointing performance at Riot Control - and yes, I do consider that a disappointment - I've made some comments since then that have left the wrestling world with one question... now what? What am I going to do? I said I wanted to find another promotion to perform in to fill my time between shows here, I'm hellbent on winning the GZWA World Title, and I want to make Nikki Bella pay for her role in Tyler Breeze's attack that nearly ended my comeback before it could begin."
The crowd boos at the mention of that horrific attack.
"The problem some people have with that isn't that those plans are mutually exclusive nor is it impossible to find the time to chase those dreams, the question is... am I bluffing?"
Some of the crowd breaks into a small "No! No! No!" chant.
"Well, my friends, I think you all know by now that I don't fuck around! I'm 100% real! I don't deal in insults and threats, I deal in facts and promises! Nobody can touch me on this microphone, on Twitter or in the ring! So YES, I'm going to wreak havoc all over the wrestling world! YES, I'm going to do whatever it takes to win the GZWA World Title! And YES, I plan on making Nikki Bella's life a living hell!"
“And as for being paired with Tyler Breeze tonight-”
Before he can proceed, "Confident" by Demi Lovato hits the speakers and out comes Nikki Bella, along with Tyler Breeze, showered with boos from the crowd. They scoff at the jeers and approach the ring with microphones in hand, but before they can get into the ring, Mike points his kendo stick at them.
"WHOA, WHOA, WHOA, CUT THE FUCKING MUSIC. The two of you better not make one more step towards this ring or I will personally impale both of your scrawny asses on my kendo stick!"
Tyler, Nikki and the crowd are taken aback by Mike's zero-to-60 threat, with a small "Mike's gonna kill you!” chant breaking out, but Nikki brushes it off and addresses Mike.
“Mike, how many times do I need to repeat myself? I had nothing, I repeat NOTHING to do with what happened. I came out here to ask you for forgiveness. I don’t need it nor want it, but this ongoing saga needs to end.”
Her comments elicit a mixed reaction from the crowd before Tyler takes the microphone from Nikki.
“She's telling the truth, you uggos! I did it!”
Heat pours in on Tyler while Mike rolls his eyes, mouthing “Yeah, we know.”
“Boo me if you must, but the reason why is quite simple Michael!
Tyler starts pacing back and forth on the top of the entrance ramp
“It’s because you’re worthless, Michael! You honestly think you can become the Cinderella story? They don't believe you, I don't believe you. Whether they choose to boo me or not, you’re not a fairy tale come true, uggo! I’m the prince of this story, not you! This is supposed to be my happily ever after!”
The heat increases as he speaks while Mike taps the kendo stick against the ring canvas impatiently. Then Mike points the kendo stick at the two of them again.
"You know, Tyler, I really wasn't interested in talking to you at all, but since you're so desperate for attention, let me lecture you on something - I am as authentic as it gets in wrestling! When I say I want something, I work my ass off to get it! Every single person here and everyone watching this show around the world knows what I'm capable of! Their appreciation of me is just as authentic as my work ethic, my ring skills, my promos - you name it! And at Riot Control, you saw that authenticity when I returned to GZWA, you heard that authenticity when the crowd reacted the way it did, and you sure as hell felt that authenticity when my kendo stick went through your fucking skull!"
The crowd cheers once again, but Mike quiets them down quickly.
"But as I said, I'm not out here to deal with you... I've already dealt with you and I've got far bigger fish to fry. I'm here to deal with whatsherface over there."
Mike points his kendo stick at Nikki as the crowd boos again.
"Nikki... I honestly don't give a flying fuck whether you hired Tyler to bash my skull in or not. You obviously did, but that's beside the point. Because you attacked me while I could barely walk, you signed your fucking death warrant and I ain't resting till I get my revenge on you, you no-talent hack!"
Mike almost exits the ring to chase after her as the crowd resumes its chant of "Mike's gonna kill you!", but Tyler interrupts him and yawns, rolling his eyes.
“Yaaawwwnnn....blah-blah, BORING! Starting to get tired of the same old drama, Michael, You don't want to forgive? Fine, but bro, it’s time to move on. You,wanna let some anger out? How about I come down to that ring,and finish what you started at Riot Control? Because as far as I’m concerned, when you keep going on and on what happened in the past, you could have done bigger and more important things in the future! I don't know about you but I’m done talking. I’m not happy about being paired with you either, but what’s done is done, and we gotta get down to business!”
“Mike, I'm done with this, all right? Tyler's right. This is over. I've said my piece. I’m a forgiving person and sadly you’re not.”
Nikki shrugs her shoulders.at the mixed reaction from the crowd.
“Hate to say it folks, but Mikey boy here has dragged this far way too long! And if he won't end it, then I will have to do it myself. I’m on my way to becoming something great in this tag team tournament. I don't want a washed-up has-been keep dragging me into his problems. So as far as I’m concerned Mike… you and I, this chapter in our career is finished .I have nothing more to say to you,and y-”
Mike cuts her off, eliciting an exasperated sigh from Nikki.
"WHOA, WHOA, WHOA, before you tuck your tail between your legs and skulk to the back, I got news for you! This ain't over 'til I say it's over, and lucky - or not so lucky - for you, it just about is!"
The crowd is unsure of what this means, but there's a small cheer.
"You see, after Riot Control, I told Christy Hemme that I was gonna get my hands on you, Nikki, for attacking me when I announced my comeback, and then she told me I can't, because your contract only allows you to wrestle women..."
The crowd boos knowing that Mike isn't going to get revenge the way he wanted.
"So then I told myself, 'Of course no man should ever lay his hands on a woman... but maybe, if you attack a guy who's recuperating from a heart transplant while he can barely walk, and then you bring in someone else to smash his head in with a steel chair, you deserve to get the tar beat out of you!'"
The crowd cheers and begins another "Mike's gonna kill you!" chant.
“On top of that, I had to do something about being paired with Prince Prissy over there, because as far as I’m concerned, there’s only one person on this planet who I want to be my tag team partner!”
The crowd begins to roar again at the possibility of whom Mike could be referring to.
"All I had to do to seal both of your fates was make one phone call…”
Mike points to the entrance ramp with his kendo stick, and "Gamefire" by Klaypex hits the speakers... leading to the emergence of none other than Mike's sister, "The Guru" Danielle Bradley!
Prof. X: The Bradleys are officially back in business!
Francine: Oh, for fuck's sake, now we have to deal with both of them?!
Tyler and Nikki turn around to see Danielle marching towards them. Tyler tries to rush her, but Danielle knocks him out with a stiff right hand. Nikki tries to go after her, but Danielle hits her with a series of rights and tosses her into the ring. A chant of "Dani's gonna kill you!" begins as Mike waves his arms around like a conductor to the orchestra of the crowd. Danielle continues the assault. With Nikki staggering, Danielle whips her into the corner and pumps her right arm, signaling the delivery of the D-Train (Elijah Express) straight into Nikki's back. The impact ricochets Nikki straight towards towards Mike, who finally gets his revenge with an emphatic Swing For the Fences (baseball-style kendo stick shot to the head) and a cocky flip of the kendo stick. The Bradley siblings embrace and play to the crowd. Danielle picks up a microphone and stands over the fallen Nikki.
"Nikki, my darling... you and Tyler just learned a hard, hard lesson when dealing with us Bradleys... TALK SHIT, GET HIT!!"
And if you don't know... now you know!

Fatal 4 Way Tornado Tag Team Match
Roppongi Dragon ("The Cuban Hooligan" Rocky Romero & "The Beautiful Dragon" Mei Long) vs. SM Raye & "The Iceman" Stefan Raab vs. "The Icon" Sting & "Straight-Edge Juggalo" Ryan Kendrick vs. "The Next Level" Mike Bradley & "Prince Pretty" Tyler Breeze “The Guru” Danielle Bradley (return)
Prof. X: With the Bradleys reunited, it looks like we have a slightly different dynamic going on for this match tonight, if it wasn’t already a stacked affair already.
Francine: I don’t blame the Bradleys as this is a rather unique opportunity. They were craving this chance since being eliminated from the tag tournament to crown the first ever champions.
The Carter: I’m glad to see Danielle back around here. I’m sure she’s still got her eyes on the prize of being a champion.
At the sound of the opening bell, the Bradleys attack the team of Raye and Raab to start this match with a spark of chaos. Mike Bradley singles out Raye while Danielle squares off against Mei Long. Ryan Kendrick squares off against Stefan Raab, and Sting faces off with Rocky Romero.
One by one, Raye, Mei, Raab, and Romero end up being Irish whipped or knocked into the four corners and everyone took turns assaulting the opposition. Ryan Kendrick and Sting perform simultaneous Stinger Splashes into the corners to Raab and Raye while Mike and Danielle hit stereo Shining Wizards into the corners to Romero and Mei. The four competitors sought out to repeat this offense on the opposition again. Just as Sting and Kendrick returned for another serving of Stinger Splashes, Raab and Raye moved out of the way and countered with two simultaneous Release German Suplexes. Mei Long and Rocky Romero duck the stereo Shining Wizards and counter with Inverted Neckbreakers while Mike Bradley and Danielle were stuck on the top rope. The Roppongi Dragon continued their offense with an aerial assault in the form of a Diving Senton and Diving Moonsault to the fallen Bradleys. Mei Long and Rocky Romero went for double pins.
ONE…
TWO…
NO!!!
The double pins were broken by the combined efforts of Raye and Raab. SM Raye tossed Mei Long out of the ring before turning their focus to the waking Cuban Hooligan with a Double Clothesline. Romero manages to duck underneath the blow and SM Raye and Stefan Raab turn around into a Springboard Missile Dropkick from the returning Beautiful Dragon. Rocky Romero rebounds from the ropes with a Running Flying Armbar to the waking Kendrick, only for him to respond with a Half Nelson Suplex. Before Mei could come to Romero’s aid, Sting drops her to the mat with a Scorpion Death Drop. The Icon pinned the Beautiful Dragon to the mat while Kendrick held Romero at bay with a Scorpion Deathlock firmly applied to make his mentor proud.
The Carter: That won’t be the last time a man would awkwardly position himself on top of the Beautiful Dragon tonight…Damn I wish I was in that position!
Francine: Don’t make the poor women watching at home that visual, Carter. They could be eating.
ONE…
TWO…
WAIT!!!
The pin was broken by Danielle with Handspring Splash over Sting’s spine. The Guru ends up landing on top of Mei Long instead as Sting moves out of the way after breaking hold prematurely. Ryan Kendrick found himself distracted by Sting’s altercation with Danielle that he doesn’t see the Next Level approach from his blind side and struck with a super kick to Kendrick’s jaw to break the hold on the Cuban Hooligan. Danielle leapt towards Sting with Lou Thesz Press only for Sting to respond with an Inverted Atomic Drop. He positioned her into a side headlock. Mike closed in with a Step-Up Enzuigiri only for Sting to duck and respond with a simultaneous Scorpion Death Drop and DDT to both members of the Bradleys.
The Stinger beats on his chest to hype up the crowd and shouts, “WOOOOOOOO!!!” to rally the GZWA Nation onto their feet. The Icon dragged the Iceman to his feet and positioned him onto his shoulders with an Oklahoma Slam. Stefan Raab drops back behind the Stinger and shoves the Icon into the waiting SM Raye who threw Sting into corner with Exploder Suplex. The duo of SM Raye and Stefan Raab then Double Baseball Slide into the Icon’s face. Before Raye and Raab could continue their combined offense, Sting wisely rolls out of the ring and onto the ringside floor to recuperate. Raab and Raye turned around to focus on the opposition only to experience first-hand a High Impact Spear from Kendrick. The Straight Edge Juggalo dragged the Iceman back to his feet and dropped Raab face-first into the corner with Complete Shot and tosses Raye into the corner to join him with an Irish whip. Ryan Kendrick hits the ropes and returns with another Stinger Splash into Stefan Raab and SM Raye trapped in the corner. SM Raye moved out of the way while Stefan Raab drops him into the corner with Snake Eyes. SM Raye follows suit with a Slingshot Falcon Arrow to plant the Straight Edge Juggalo head-first into the canvas. SM Raye wasted no time in going for the cover.
ONE…
TWO…
THRE---NO!!!
Rocky Romero broke the pin with a Diving Knee Drop to the spine of SM Raye. Stefan Raab raced to assist Raye against the Cuban Hooligan, but the Beautiful Dragon closed in with a Dragon Kiss (Spinning Windmill Kick to the face). The Iceman caught her foot in motion and locked in the Ice Lock (Ankle Lock) to Mei Long.
The Carter starts singing, “Let it go! Let it go! Mei Long can’t take it any mo’!”
Francine slaps him across the back of his head to silence his off-key musical performance.
Mei Long crawled frantically towards the ropes but Stefan Raab maintained his grip as he reeled her back towards the center of the ring. The Cuban Hooligan struck from behind with a Jumping Enzuigiri to force the Iceman to release the hold. The Roppongi Dragon then performed a Double Enzuigiri to the Iceman before going for a double pin.
ONE…
TWO...
TH--WAIT!!
Sting drags both members of Roppongi Dragon out of the ring by their legs. Sting threw them against the barricade and beat on his chest before racing across the ring apron and throwing his body towards them with an apron dive variation of the Stinger Splash. RPG Dragon counters by dropping the Icon onto the barricade behind them. Before they could even pat themselves on the back, Rocky Romero and Mei Long spun around to see the Bradleys hitting the ropes and diving out of the ring with a Double Brookline Bridge (Spear between the ropes). Mike and Danielle knock everyone to the floor in the process with this daredevil maneuver, leaving SM Raye and Ryan Kendrick as the only competitors in the ring.
SM Raye dragged Ryan Kendrick to his feet to continue his offense but the Straight-Edge Juggalo blinded Raye with a spray of Red Mist. Ryan Kendrick then hits multiple clotheslines on the reeling Raye as he mounts his comeback. Kendrick then elevates Raye overhead with a Gorilla Push, but the Franchise drops behind the Straight-Edge Juggalo safely. He turns the tables on Kendrick by lifting him up into the air with an Electric Chair lift, only to drop him back to the mat while connecting with a roaring elbow to the back of the head (Desolation II). SM Raye makes the cover while Stefan Raab kept an eye out for anyone trying to break the pin.
ONE…
Sting slides into the ring to break the pin but the Iceman held him at bay with the Frozen Pin (Bridging German Suplex).
TWO…
THREE!!!
Prof. X: These three teams definitely set the bar to a high standard for this tag team classic tonight. Just imagine how crazy these matches will be when the tournament gets started!
Backstage we spot the Bella Twins in a ongoing conversation about what happened last week during the match.After they finished getting there hair and makeup done
Brie,what were you even doing there to begin with? Nicole asked her sister once more,folding her arms across her chest.Brie sighs lowering her head.
Look,I'm sorry I cost you the match Nikki,but I'm telling you.Trusting Foxy,she starts to say yes,once again with Nikki groaning getting tired of this.
Ugh,Brie...it's really getting boring here.You gotta stop worrying about this.Nikki says yet again for the hundred time.Foxy,is a great tag team partner.
Brie shook her head.No,I don't think she is.Telling her sister the truth.Footsteps were heard just as we see Foxy herself coming over.N-Brie was going to say before spotting Foxy,
Seems like I'm interrupting again? Alicia said glaring at the sisters.Nikki shook her head.No,just Brie yet again being an overprotective sister.
Still? Alicia said getting tired of this.Brie,I told you I'm only here to help Nikki out.Why are you here anyway? She asked wondering.Sitting down in the final chair next to them.
Because I can't trust my sisters judgement.And I don't know why I'm feeling this way,but I can't leave her alone when your next to her.Admitting the truth.Alicia nods her head understanding her side.
I get it Brie,I do.But I have no agenda here.I have nothing but respect for Nikki.Im grateful she is giving me a second chance.Brie listens in wondering if she should buy any of this.
See,I told you.Nikki chimed in hoping this would change her minds about her.Nikki leaves the girls to talk to a co-worker with Foxy moving closer...
Your going to regret 'helping' your sister Brie.I told you I had everything under control.Saying in a whisper watching Nikki making sure she isn't being suspicious.
No,I'm not regretting anything Foxy.Brie chimed in.I don't know what your going to do.But I will make sure you don't hurt my sister in anyway.Making a promise threat to her.Foxy chuckles lightly,its cute you wanna protect her.You always can't be around to do it forever.
Nikki returns spotting team Bella faking a smile..Look,Brie you're retired now remember? Nicole stares at her direction but Brie looks at Foxy,not keeping her eyes off.I have everything under control here,you don't need to worry about me.Besides I don't want you getting hurt.
Yeah Brie,Alicia added wrapping her arm around Nicole's back.Im going to take very good care of your sister.Im going to make sure nothing happens to her.You have my word.A staredown between the two was show,Nikki wonders if something is going on she needs to know about before it fades to a commercial
Backstage, the Mega Busters are chatting backstage by the water cooler.
Matthew Miles: So, Ash, you’re ready for this tag team classic preview match tonight? You get the honor of teaming up with Kevin’s imaginary girlfriend.
Psycho Sagus: SHE’S REAL, DAMMIT!!
Matthew Miles: I know, I know. It’s just that you two have been dating for months now and you still are still so secretive about it with us. We’re all family here, man. For crying out loud, Ash’s best friend is your girlfriend’s sister! It’s not like we’re strangers to her since we all work for the same company under the same tyrannical owner.
Ashleigh Cash: (Grins) It was more her idea than mine if I’m perfectly honest. You two know I’m comfortable with just cheering you guys from the sidelines, but I welcome this opportunity to show off what I can do too.
Psycho Sagus: You better have Ashley’s back out there or I’ll hurt you if something happens to her.
Ashleigh: More like Alice will hurt YOU if something happens to me or her sister… You’re just saying that for your own benefit. To be quite honest, I’m not worried anyway. Your girlfriend’s one hell of an athlete and we’re not going up against the best of the best. It’s Maryse for crying out loud. She will be more concerned with breaking one of her freshly manicured nails than winning this match. I don’t know anything about Alex McFly but no offense to her in the least, but she should have her eyes on Maryse. I wouldn’t trust that Barbie doll as far as I could throw her.
Psycho Sagus: Correction. Playboy centerfold.
Matthew Miles: I bet you still have that issue.
Psycho Sagus: Uhhhhh….. No.
Matthew Miles: If I go back to your parents’ house and look in your closet, I WON’T find several back issues of Playboy magazines stacked up and organized by month and year… INCLUDING the issue(s) that Maryse appears in?
Psycho Sagus: …………………………
Ashleigh chuckles, “Busted. Just don’t get caught with your girlfriend about your ‘sticky’ fingers… I won’t tell her as long as you stay on my good side. I dunno about Alice though…. I had her on Skype while we were having this lovely chat.”
Sagus’ jaw hangs open while Ashleigh holds up her phone as she headed towards the gorilla position for the tonight’s next match.
Matthew Miles pats his best friend on the shoulder, “I’ve learned to just to roll with the punches, buddy. That girl is impossible to win against in a battle of the sexes.”
Ashleigh shouts from down the hallway, “I heard that! You’re SOOO sleeping on the couch tonight…”
Matthew: “Dammit…”
*** Stardom Tag Team Classic Preview ***
"The Sexiest of the Sexy" Maryse Ouellet & “The Fire-Bred Babe” Alex McFly vs. "Wonder Girl" Ashley Wonder & “The Blue Bombshell” Ashleigh Cash
Prof. X: Ever since Riot Control, we’ve seen the returning Maryse Ouellet take the rookie Alex McFly underneath her wing in a way of sorts.
Francine: Even Ray Charles can see that Maryse is up to something here. It’s just like Ashleigh said earlier, I wouldn’t trust that blow up doll as far as I could throw her.
The Carter: Hey don’t slander Maryse’s reputation like that! How do you two know if she’s not genuinely looking to help the newbie? Who knows she could have had a change of heart since marrying The Miz.
Francine: I doubt it. She prolly just inherited his slime and they share it together.
Prof. X: In either case, I guess we’re about to find out as the team of Maryse and Alex will take on this newly formed team of Ashley Wonder and Ashleigh Cash.
The Carter: Those lucky bastards in the Mega Busters have some cute girlfriends…
After the opening bell, Maryse starts the match against Ashley Wonder who counters Maryse’s incoming Clothesline with a Swinging Butterfly Neckbreaker. With the Sexiest of the Sexy grounded at her feet, Ashley performs a standing Shooting Star Senton. Maryse protects herself by putting her knees up. With Ashley down on all fours holding her abdomen, Maryse stomps onto Ashley’s spine and applies the French Pain (Camel Clutch).
Prof. X: That didn’t look too nice there…
The Carter: It’s all fair in the spirit of competition. She’s just trying to win!
Francine: You’re just in denial, Carter… As ALWAYS.
Fortunately for the Wonder Girl, the hold was broken by Ashleigh with the Homing Sniper (Diving Overcastle). Not one to be shy from a fight, Alex intervenes by laying out Ashleigh with Discus Lariat. Maryse struck with a French TKO (Reverse Roundhouse Kick) to the waking Ashley Wonder who sidesteps around the kick and shoves Maryse into Alex as she was returning into her corner.
The Carter: I smell trouble…
Francine: You might want to clean your mustache then.
The Carter: But I just shaved my mustache this morning…
Francine: Then it’s clearly your upper lip.
The two Vixens began to argue until Ashley smashed their heads into each other with a Coconut Smash (Hulk Hogan style) before tagging in Ashleigh. The Blue Bombshell quickly rolls up Maryse with Dragonrana during the confusion.
ONE…
TWO…
TH---NO!!!
The Sexiest of the Sexy barely gets her shoulder up before the count of three. Ashleigh isn’t going to stop here. She stood back her feet in an impressive display of strength as she held Maryse in her arms in a deadlift variation of the Front Fireman’s Carry Slam to drop Maryse back to the mat. Ashleigh then stepped out of the ring out onto the ring apron and launched herself back into the ring with a Springboard 450 Splash. The Sexiest of the Sexy rolled out of the way and capitalizes with Forward Russian Legsweep. Maryse makes the tag to Alex McFly who looks reluctant to help Maryse but complies with being part of their team.
Alex McFly enters the match with a Diving Middle Rope European Uppercut to waking Ashleigh Cash. She follows up by transitioning into a Jacknife after impact.
ONE…
TWO…
NO!!!
Alex shook her head and elevated Ashleigh off the canvas with a Gourdbuster but Ashleigh drops behind Alex shoves her into the ropes. Alex unintentionally knocks Maryse off the ring apron while Ashleigh hits the opposite ropes and met Alex with a Tilt-a-Whirl Headscissor in the middle of the ring. Alex isn’t out of it yet as she counters the Low-Down (Sitout Spinebuster) to slam Ashleigh to the mat with authority and into another pin attempt.
ONE…
TWO…
THR---NO!!!
Wonder Girl broke the pin just in time to avoid the three count with a well-timed Neck Snap (Jumping Over The Shoulder Neckbreaker). With Alex down on the mat, Ashley signals to Ashleigh to bring the rain as the two Vixens climbed the turnbuckles on opposite corners of the ring and prepared for two simultaneous 450 Splashes. Just as the Wonder Girl motioned to take flight, Maryse shoved her off of top of the turnbuckle, causing Ashley Wonder to take a nasty landing onto the mat. Ashleigh is distracted by the French-Canadian Beauty’s foul play but still manages to snap out of it long enough to execute her own 450 Splash. The Fire-Bred Babe puts her knees up to counter, causing the Blue Bombshell to crash and burn as well.
Francine: I can’t believe it. Maryse is actually a team player… for now.
Maryse joins Alex in the ring as they perform the French Kiss (Snap DDT with theatrics) and Molotov Bomb (Tiger Bomb) in unison to Ashley Wonder and Ashleigh Cash. Alex McFly covers Ashleigh for the win as Maryse smiles from ear to ear.
ONE…
TWO…
THREE!!!
Prof. X: Looks like Maryse proved everyone wrong here tonight. She doesn’t seem to have an agenda…
Francine: For now, anyway. I still wouldn’t let my guard down if I was Alex.
The Carter: Maryse is the nicest girl around! She’s not up to anything! I don’t know where you’re getting this from, but she’s just looking to help out the rookie and take the girl under her wing.
Francine: I hope Alex isn’t as naive as you are...
Backstage in a locker room stood Ry Drake and the GZWA Tag Team Champions Laura Jackson and Casey Cortez. All three sized up each other with with their menacing looks. The camera angle changes with Daniel Widdel rushing into the scene with Delta Madison following behind, giving Daniel that extra push to get closer within the circle.
Daniel Widdel: Dammit, Delta, man. No need to shove me like that.
Daniel groaned, with Delta getting in between the four individuals ignoring Daniel’s minor protest.
Delta Madison: You guys are wondering why I assembled you here before our big main-event match this evening….
Delta paused and looked around for a moment, noticing something was off.
Delta Madison: Where’s Amiee?
Delta looked over at Daniel who made a sarcastic face.
Daniel Widdel: ‘Do you REALLY want her here?
Delta shrugged her shoulders, understanding Daniel’s point. This whole meeting would go down easier if Amiee wasn’t here anyway.
Delta Madison: Anyway, Casey, Laura and Ry Drake. I know we are all individuals that don’t see eye to eye. Casey and Laura, we’ve had our issues in the past and Daniel, Drake I understand you two aren’t the best of friends.
Daniel and Ry exchange irritated glances at one of another. Delta rose up her hand stopping any heated comments from the duo.
Delta Madison: Look, this isn’t the time for testosterone overload. I just want all five of us to get a good understanding of the one thing we all have in common - we want revenge on The Machine. At Xplosion, they made their intentions known for ruling everything in GZWA with an iron fist. We hold targets on our shoulders and that’s our Championships. We can’t allow The Machine to step all over us and take our championships we worked so hard for. So at Primetime, I want all of us to band together to take out The Machine. You got it?
Laura just stared at Delta, she knew what she was saying was true after all she had been laid out on the last show.
Laura Jackson: Look you want me to play nice Delta be one big happy family? Fine I’ll do it but you better remember one thing. If you screw me and Casey in any way then we going to take all 3 of you out.
Laura pointed at Ry, Daniel and Delta.
Laura Jackson: And trust me when I say we will do it.
Till now Casey has been quiet and listened to what her team members had to say, but then she looks at Delta and the others.
Casey Cortez: What Laura said counts for me too. We all here might not be friends, but now we will have to work together and I think that it should work. I think that none of us wants these idiots to get any of our titles and so we will have no other choice. We will be a good team, whether we like it or not.
For a moment she pauses and looks at her team members.
Casey Cortez: But this counts only for this match. When it's over, we all go separate ways again, but now we step out there and destroy these motherfuckers and all the people who support them. Yes, I don't want only a win, I want them to suffer and to pay for attacking us and causing all this chaos. There's no place for such individuals in this company and we will show them what they really are ….nothing more than shit.
Ry Drake holds up a finger.
Ry Drake: Damn it feels like weeks since I last spoke….anyway I just have to say this because I feel need to but I have a sickness call “Don't Trust MOfo’s” and it’s a violent reaction to it. I thought I told GZWA but it fell on deaf ears. I hate teaming up, and making it worse I’m with “King Douche” Danny Boy Widdel. So I’ll go out there but if I don’t feel tonight going my way, I may have to drop any one of you. I don’t have any sides nor do I want to pick a side, I am the Team of Me! Deuces!
Ry Drake walks down the hall with his earbuds in tuning out his partners for Primetime. The group show their own degree of annoyance of Ry’s lack of disregard of the situation.
Daniel mutters to himself. ‘I’m not the King Douche”
Delta shoots Daniel a look and shaking her head warning him not to retaliate. Daniel relaxes slightly, knowingly he needs to keep focus going into this match.
Delta Madison: Ry doesn’t understand the extent of this situation since he doesn’t currently hold a championship unlike us. He’s too busy in his own world in the clouds so four out of five is better than nothing. It won’t achieve anything if we turn our backs on each other over ego and greed, that would mean we become part of The Machine. We need to focus of our main goal of showing The Machine we aren’t an easy target. They would need to do more than ambushing and stealing our titles. Here I say, tonight we dub ourselves ‘The Resistance’. The Machine have NO IDEA who they are dealing with.
The foursome look each other in agreement, looking like a somewhat formidable force going into their main event match.
*** Singles Match ***
Didgitz vs. Blake Harper
Prof. X: We haven’t seen Blake Harper in action since that nasty Bullet she took for CM Punk during Riot Control.
Francine: Yeah, she took the Bullet figuratively and literally that night.
The Carter: I hope Punk knows that he has one hell of a lady there… but Didgitz isn’t bad on the eyes either. I wonder if she has a boyfriend?
Francine: She’s not interested, so don’t bother.
The Carter: Scared of the competition?
Francine: No, I’m all about giving you the reality check that you desperately need.
The match opens with Didgitz making the first move in the form of a Lou Thesz Press to tackle Blake Harper to the ground as Didgitz assaulted her with punches and forearm shots. Blake powered through her offense with a headbutt to face to stun the rookie Vixen before sending overhead with a Trapping Suplex. Blake then motions to return the gesture for the Lou Thesz Press with a Double Leg Takedown but Didgitz counters with a High Knee to rock Blake. Didgitz then drops back behind Blake and executes three Rolling Snap Suplexes in succession. One would think that would be enough to keep blake down but Digitz made sure to keep her down with a XDT (Springboard Moonsault DDT) as Blake staggered back to her feet. Things didn’t go according to plan as Blake counters with Russian Legsweep. With Didgitz grounded at her feet, Blake continued her offense with an application of a Kneeling Inverted Sharpshooter.
Prof. X: Looks like Didgitz is in trouble here. Is she going to find a way out of this hairy situation?
Didgitz couldn’t reach the ropes since Blake wisely dragged her back towards the center of the ring. Didgitz wasn’t going to give up here. She fought tooth and nail against the hold while Blake showed no signs of releasing the hold. Didgitz came up with a solution. She improvised by rolling over onto her spine and kicking Blake into the corner. Didgitz hobbles back to her feet and sprints towards the corner, impacting into Blake’s jaw with a Running Yakuza Kick. Didgitz doesn’t stop there as she positioned Blake onto the top rope and sent her crashing back down to the mat below with an X-Drop (Samoan Drop off the top rope). Didgitz rolled over and covered Blake in a pin.
ONE…
TWO…
THRE---NO!!!
Didgitz smacked her hands on the canvas as she was in disbelief that Blake was able to kick out after that previous lethal combination. Didgitz stood poised and ready to end this right now with a Super Kick to the waking Blake Harper. The blow was met with Didgitz’ foot being caught by Blake. Blake spun her around and went for the Stunner, but Didgitz shoved Blake into the ropes to counter.
Didgitz hit the opposite ropes and met Blake with a Whirlybird Headscissors. Blake responds with a three-step counter - first with a Gutbuster, dropping Didgitz over her knee followed by Leg Hook Reverse STO to drop her to the mat. Finally, Blake rolls Didgitz over and applies the Eyes Wide Shut (Bridging Arm Triangle Choke).
Didgitz makes scramble to try to reach the ropes but Blake has her trapped with nowhere to go. With a heavy heart, Didgitz gives up the ghost and submits to avoid any possible injury from being in the hold any further.
After being named the winner, Blake helped Didgitz to her feet and shook her hand out of respect and good sportsmanship. Didgitz accepted the gesture as the crowd cheered both women for their efforts here tonight.
*** First Blood Match ***
"Shooting Star" Lilith Danielson vs. "The Jungle Girl" Joanna Tarzanna
The Jungle Girl raced down the entrance ramp to sound of "Roar", eager to accept this challenge.
Prof. X: This match came about after Lilith Danielson issued a challenge on ReAction following Riot Control. The Machine responded by booking this match, pitting the Shooting Star and Jungle Girl against each other.
Francine: Pretty bold of the newbie to be spitting off at the mouth when she's barely gotten her feet wet in this company. Let's see if she's able to put her money where her mouth is.
The Carter: Either way, I'm just glad to see another pretty face in the Vixen's division, woo-hoo! Joanna Tarzanna is making her way out here first!
Unfortunately for Joanna Tarzanna, the match starts prematurely when the Shooting Star struck first with her signature baseball bat to the Jungle Girl's spine. Lilith Danielson struck again to the gut, causing Joanna to roll down to the bottom of the entrance ramp.
Prof. X: Lilith isn't wasting anytime. She's starting this match on her terms and took the pre-emptive strike against the Jungle Girl.
Francine: She brought an equalizer too. Those of you at home can't see exactly how much Joanna towers over a lot of the Vixens in the division.
The Carter: She's definitively a force to be reckoned with...
Francine: She just needs something or someone to help her hone her skills or redirect them with precision.
Lilith Danielson aimed, poised and ready to win this match in a promptly manner as the Jungle Girl attempted to pull herself back to her feet with the nearby steel steps. Lilith raced down the ramp to bat Joanna’s head against the steel steps but Joanna Tarzanna stopped her in her tracks by springing back up to her feet with a Superwoman Punch. The Jungle Girl shook off the cobwebs and raised Lilith overhead with ease in a Military Press. She dropped the Shooting Star onto the ringside barricade. Lilith clenched her abdomen in pain as she turned around to face Joanna, only to receive a Front Dropkick from the Jungle Girl to send Lilith back into the barricade. Joanna Tarzanna beat on her chest to show her Amazonian pride to rally the crowd behind her before charging straight at the Shooting Star and striking with a Flying Clothesline to send them both over the barricade and out into the crowd from the sheer force of the blow.
Prof. X: Wow, these ladies are going all out in this match!
Francine: Reminds me of the good ol' days in Extreme Championship Wrestling... The ladies are taking the fight to the people - up close and personal.
The Carter: I'd love to get up close and personal with them myself...
Francine: No one is remotely interested in you nor aware that you're alive...
Lilith Danielson was the first to stagger to her feet looking to retreat for a breather with Joanna Tarzanna doing the same shortly afterwards. Joanna opted to cut those travel plans short by closing in with a Spear. The Shooting Star responded by slamming Joanna into the empty seats of fans moving out of their way with a snap variation of the Northern Lights Suplex. Lilith left Joanna writhing in pain on top of the chairs as took a random fan's drink and downed it in one gulp.
The Carter: I love a woman who can hold her alcohol!
Francine: I would think it would be the latter since no woman not under the influence with her rational sane state of mind would give you the time of day...
With the crowd cheering for her in anticipation, Lilith stood on the ringside barricade and prepared for the Lilith’s Comet (Shooting Star Press). The Shooting Star took flight and came down from the heavens as the Jungle Girl staggered back to her feet. Unfortunately for Lilith, Joanna caught her out of the air with explosive counter in the form of a Spinebuster onto the unforgiving floor. Joanna pounded her fist on the floor as she reloaded for another round of the Superwoman Punch as Lilith crawled across the floor. The Jungle Girl closed in with the Punch only for Lilith to break a beer bottle over her skull to stop the Jungle Girl prematurely before impact of the maneuver.
Referee Slick Johnson calls for the bell as Joanna Tarzanna has a minor gash on her forehead with blood starting to pour out.
The match may be over but the two Vixens don’t want to stop fighting. Slick held Lilith’s arm up in triumph only for Joanna to deck her to the floor with a Superwoman Punch. Joanna pounces on top of the Shooting Star as the two women began trading blows until security arrived on the scene and held them apart and separated from each other.
The cheering fans around them chant, “LET THEM FIGHT! LET THEM FIGHT!” while security manages to restrain these women as Primetime takes a commercial break.
Veda Scott is shown pacing back and forth in front of the camera as the Enforcers stood behind her.
Veda Scott: "It's odd really. Week in, week out. We come into work, we do our jobs like we're told and yet there's still those annoying co-workers who test your patience. That one co-worker who gets underneath your skin so much that they don't know that you're one bad day away from kicking their ass. Fortunately for the the world of professional wrestling, you can have a problem with as many co-workers you want and deal with them physically because people pay to see us beat the holy hell out of each other.
And the Enforcers here? They are specialists in that regard. Two multiple time title winners in their own right in several promotions, they have established themselves as the top of the food chain on multiple occasions, even besting the Mega Busters as well as GZWA Chairman himself when him and his best friend, T-Bone, were competing regularly. He recruited these two men because they are the best at what they do - they may not have won tag team gold here in GZWA but there is no doubt that they have hurt a lot of people. Seriously, who has seen Hano Eiyu after what the Enforcers did to that guy? Or what about that piece of gum that was stuck underneath the GZWA Chairman’s shoe regarded as Dean Maddoxxx? I feel that the Enforcers need to scrap the remaining pieces of dog poop from underneath their boots onto the sidewalk and allow the rest of the Straight-Edge Saviors rot like the pieces of filth like they are, but that’s none of my business…
Business… that’s the magic word for tonight’s main event. The Machine aim to handle just that - business. Contrary to popular belief, the Glamazon is NOT part of our order but if she’s willing to be a team player the Machine sees no reason not to allow her to continue to operate as she sees fit if she wants to obtain the Vixen Championship. If not, then she better just stay out of our way out there.
It amuses me personally that the Glamazon has targeted Delta Madison though… The infamous Queen of Queens inaugural tournament winner and simultaneously the Vixen Champion, who is allegedly the current flag bearer of “maintaining” and laying the foundation of female excellence in this company. What has she done to be in this position other than sit in a “pretty throne”? Sure, she won in a tournament against a group of girls who were either fired or others who realized they weren’t good enough to hang in the big leagues? Whoopty doo. She won the Vixen Championship without even pinning the former champion? Color me NOT impressed. This is a woman with a string of good luck - nothing more. Sadly for her and the rest of her teammates, their luck is about to run out.”
G-Money Briggs chimes in, “How can that one busta’ call himself the FACE of GZWA? He’ll be lucky to have a face after tonight. He can flap those gums all he wants to the small fry but he needs a reminder that the big boys are playing tonight.”
Dequan Wallace: “Oh he’s going to get a firm lesson of that fine piece of literature, especially after he witnesses Ry Drake being beaten SANE first-hand.”
Veda Scott smirks, “Maybe Daniel Widdel and his wife Amiee should take a lesson from Daniel Bryan and Brie Bella. Just retire and stay gone. Amiee’s only crowning achievements in life have always been either consuming alcohol or spreading her legs…”
Veda covers her own mouth and fans herself, “Oh wait, I have to stop. I don’t want to be accused of slut-shaming anyone or being derogatory to the women of professional wrestling!
It’s not my fault that Miss Vaughan is like that overweight chick that everyone made fun of in grade school who finally took her tormentor’s advice got some plastic surgery to attempt to fix her ugliness. After becoming somewhat acceptable by society, she then took her frustrations out on her peers just because she looks somewhat attractive. She whines and rants on everything and everyone she sees just to mask her own personal insecurities. Wake up and smell the coffee, sunshine. If that pea-sized brain of hers actually worked, she would see that no amount of yoga classes, wine coolers, plastic surgery, nor cheap threats will hide the fact that she’s nothing but that same insignificant speck of irrelevance that she were before she dropped the weight. The only difference today is that her rent-a-husband is standing next to her instead of behind her.
Too bad she can’t see that for herself if your brain wasn’t as empty as MC Hammer’s bank account.”
Dequan: “Why is she even around here anyway?”
Veda shrugs, “She craves the attention and just wants to try to be relevant when she’s really not. She’s hoping that being around Daniel while he’s champion will make her champion in her own eyes.”
G-Money: “She can play dress up all she wants, but she’ll feel extra special tonight as we won’t discriminate on males nor females on what we plan to do to our so-called opponents tonight.”
Veda adjusts her glasses, “The gall of that woman… Mr. and Mrs. Widdel are the GZWA equivalents of Impact Wrestling’s Matt Hardy and Reby Sky-Hardy… a complete waste of space.”
Dequan: “What about the undefeated, record-setting tag team champions, the MisFits? I thought they would have been wise enough to align themselves with us, but I guess we thought wrong.”
Veda sighs, “They are former acquaintances of Amanda Cortez after all - it’s common knowledge that she doesn’t associate with anyone with a higher IQ than herself anyway. Despite cutting ties with her, it’s not like they cracked open a textbook and sought out to acquire a keen intellect. The ONLY reason they still have tag team gold is that you two, my dear Enforcers, have not had the opportunity to remove those titles from their possession.
The MisFits, much like the rest of this rag tag team of oddities and random acquaintances, are merely riding a train of good luck.
Sadly to burst your bubble, folks, but the good times are officially over tonight after the Machine takes out the trash in tonight's main event."
*** Main Event: Classic Survivor Series Match - 5 vs 5 ***
Team Machine: GZWA World Heavyweight Champion "Hardcore Monster" Carnage (w/ Veda Scott), "The Statement" Victor Phillips, The Enforcers (G-Money Briggs & Dequan Wallace), "The Glamazon" Beth Phoenix
vs.
Team Champions: "Psycho Menace" Ry Drake, GZWA Television Champion Daniel Widdel (w/ Amiee Vaughan-Widdel), GZWA Vixen Champion "Lady So Divine" Delta Madison, GZWA Tag Team Champions The MisFits ("Tattooed Beauty" Laura Jackson & "Queen of Submission" Casey Cortez)
Prof. X: Tonight’s main event came to terms after the last episode of Xplosion ended with the Glamazon along with the members of the Machine working together to lay waste to the opposition at the end of that broadcast.
After both teams conversed among themselves, it was decided that both Beth Phoenix and Delta Madison would start the match off for their respective teams. The Lady So Divine avoids an incoming Clothesline from the Glamazon by stopping her in her tracks with a Low Dropkick. Delta continued her offense by throwing her body at the Glamazon full-speed with a Running Cross Body. The Glamazon responds with a Fallaway Slam to counter, sending the Lady So Divine overhead. Beth Phoenix doesn’t stop there as she removes Delta right off the mat with a Deadlift German Suplex, sending Delta across the ring. The Glamazon repeats this impressive display of strength twice more before Amiee Vaughan hopped onto the ring apron.
Prof. X: This might be one fight that this feisty redhead might want to shy away from. I wouldn’t judge her for walking away. She has a kid at home to care for after all.
Francine: I’m sure she wouldn’t care about her offspring until they are old enough to serve her alcoholic beverages.
The Carter: If Beth beats her to a pulp, Amiee can still drink her girly drinks with a bendy straw.
Beth Phoenix didn’t take kindly to the verbal outbursts from Amiee Vaughan, which caused things to get physical between the two women. The Glamazon wrapped her hands around Miss V’s throat with a Two Handed Choke from Glamazon. Beth is mere moments away from forcefully dragging Amiee into the ring but the stranglehold is broken by Dropkick from behind from Delta Madison into the ropes. The Glamazon whiplashes against the ropes and fell back into an inside cradle from the Lady So Divine.
ONE…
TWO…
THREE!!!
Beth Phoenix immediately powers out after the three count as she’s as shocked as everyone else that the Vixen Champion pulled an upset elimination on the Glamazon.
Zoey Valentine: Beth Phoenix has been eliminated!
Prof. X: The Glamazon doesn’t seem too happy with that result...
Francine: It was an upset after all.
The Carter: I think it would be for the best interests of those in the ring that they go into the bomb shelter.
Francine: Why? For Beth to rip the door off its hinges?
Beth Phoenix argues the decision with Referee Earl Hebner before getting fed up and knocking him to the floor by hurling him like a javelin at the Lady So Divine. The Glamazon storms out to ringside and shoves Zoey Valentine to the floor to relieve the ring announcer of her seat and arms herself with a steel chair. Amiee Vaughan mocks Beth Phoenix at ringside concerning her “unfortunate” turn of events only to be the first person to feel the Glamazon’s wrath. Delta Madision tries to assist by diving through the ropes with Suicide Dive but the Glamazon stops her flat by smashing the chair into her face. The MisFits approach from both sides of the ringside area, closing in on the Glamazon. Casey struck first with a Clothesline from Hell, but was met with chair shot to the spine after the Glamazon evaded the blow. Laura charged in next, only to receive a chair shot to the gut. Casey staggered to her feet, trying to shake off the blow, but Beth knocked her back down to the floor with a chair shot to the skull. With the damage done, Beth Phoenix threw the steel chair down to the floor and stormed back up the entrance ramp to a chorus of boos from the GZWA Nation.
With Hebner finally coming around after the chaos that the Glamazon laid waste to the other women in this match, the Enforcers aimed to eliminate the Lady So Divine with her body hanging halfway out of the ring across the ropes. G-Money Briggs struck with a Running Knee Lift from the ring apron to knock Delta back to into the ring. Dequan represents the remaining members of Team Machine as he stood poised and ready to strike with the Reload (The Gore) to Delta Madison. Things didn’t go according to plan as the Mega Busters’ own Psycho Sagus stood on the ring apron to distract Hebner while Matthew Miles wedged Beth’s discarded steel chair into the corner while the members of the Machine were preoccupied with removing this distraction. Dequan closed in with the Reload as Delta staggered back up to her feet. Just before impact, Delta leapfrogs over Dequan and tags out to Ry Drake. Dequan ends up knocks himself out by impacting head-first into the chair wedged into the corner. The Psycho Menace capitalized on Dequan’s folly with a Reverse DDT followed by a cover.
ONE…
TWO…
THREE!!!
Zoey Valentine: Dequan Wallace has been eliminated!!
Prof. X: This is looking bad. The Mega Busters’ interference left the Machine down to three members versus the rebellious fivesome.
Francine: I’m not complaining. It’s about time that people around here start standing up and dismantle the Machine one way or another. Win, lose, or draw, it’s not affecting my salary nor my personal well-being.
Veda Scott steps into the ring to argue this turn of events while G-Money Briggs pursues the Mega Busters at ringside. Just as the lone Enforcer grabs the duo by their hoodies, they slipped out of their jackets to escape harm. They make a hasty departure but not before forcing G-Money Briggs to eat a Double Enzuigiri. Amiee Vaughan slides into the ring and tackles Veda Scott to the mat with an If You Seek Amiee (Edge Spear). The two women roll across the canvas in a catfight before tumbling out of the ring.
The Carter: I’m sure a pool of chocolate pudding or a wet T-shirt contest would help them resolve their differences… I’m more than willing to be the referee for that matter.
Francine: For crying out loud, Carter, these women have more self-respect than that…. And they definitely wouldn’t want you anywhere near them. Then again alcohol would be involved and Amiee Vaughan would be up for anything.
The Carter: So you’re telling me there’s a chance!
At ringside, G-Money Briggs is struggling to return to the ring as Ry Drake and Daniel Widdel join the fight at the bottom of the entrance ramp after the Mega Busters’ made their exit. The Psycho Menace ducked an incoming Strong RIght Hook from G-Money Briggs and countered with a Backbreaker, dropping the lone Enforcer over his knee. Daniel Widdel struck with a Running Kenta Kick to the back of G-Money’s head just as Ry Drake raised him back up to help him complete this “lethal combination” with a STO onto the unforgiving entrance ramp. Hebner warns the Superstars of the ring out count and the two race back to the ring, leaving G-Money Briggs down and out. Hebner continued the count as the members of Team Champions count along.
4…
5…
6…
7…
8…
9…
10!!!
Zoey Valentine: After a failure to return to the ring before the count of ten, G-Money Briggs has been eliminated via count out.
Prof. X: With this down to just The Statement and Carnage this definitely isn’t looking good for the members of the Machine.
Francine: Many people said the same when Carnage was the last man standing within the Machine at Riot Control and look, he’s still the reigning and defending GZWA World Heavyweight Champion. I wouldn’t count the members of the Machine out quite yet.
Carnage and Victor took the opportunity to discuss strategy among themselves. Ry Drake and Daniel Widdel weren’t willing to wait and charged in to make the first move. The Hardcore Monster greets them with open arms in the form of a Double Clothesline. He immediately tags out to the Statement who picks up Ry Drake from the canvas with a Deadlift Release German Suplex that sends the Psycho Menace flying throughout the air and into the awaiting arms of the Hardcore Monster, who drops Drake onto the corner turnbuckle with a Snake Eyes. Victor then rams the waking Daniel Widdel into the same corner with Shoulder Tackle (Jason Jordan style). The Hardcore Monster then collides into both men with Big Splash into the corner. The Lady So Divine returned back into the action with a Diving Headscissor Takedown to Carnage. Delta tries to torque her body but Carnage reverses with Buckle Bomb (Running Release Powerbomb) to send the Lady So Divine crashing into Widdel and Drake in the corner.
The Carter: I know his name is Carnage but this is just pure domination… Good grief.
Prof. X: The Machine are two big moves away from evening the odds here. Can’t believe that I was considering that they were at a disadvantage earlier when things are clearly in control right now.
The duo were ready to finish off Ry Drake, Delta Madison, and Daniel Widdel with a Double Chokeslam and Tiger Driver, the MisFits surprise the GZWA Nation by coming to their aid.
Francine: Why isn’t this a delightful surprise… I was positive that the MisFits would align themselves with the Machine instead of standing against them.
The Queen of Submission brought Carnage down to his knees with Diving Double Axe Handle while Laura knocked the Statement over the top rope with a well-timed Super Kick. Casey and Laura get a wicked smile on their faces as they rally the GZWA Nation behind them. The MisFits do the unthinkable and perform the Spike Piledriver on the Hardcore Monster.
Prof. X: I can’t believe my eyes! The MisFits have driven the Hardcore Monster into the mat with that devastating Spike Piledriver.
Francine: I think we’re going to feel aftershocks after that earthquake after they dropped Carnage to the floor.
The Carter: We’re looking at the end of an era after that blow. There’s no way he’s getting up…
Veda Scott is shown pulling at her hair as Carnage laid lifeless on the mat.
ONE…
TWO…
THRE----NO!!!
Everyone is in pure disbelief as Carnage kicks out at the last possible instant.
The Carter: I’m speechless here…
Francine: I got nothing. I thought it was over right there.
Prof. X: Somehow, someway, the Hardcore Monster has managed to kick out of the finishing maneuver that has put numerous tag teams away over the past year.
The MisFits are as shocked as everyone else since no one has ever kicked out of their finishing maneuver. That doesn’t stop the GZWA Tag Team Champions from going for the Spike Piledriver again. Carnage powers out tossing Casey out of the ring by flipping her overhead and Victor shoves Laura off the top rope and down to floor to join Casey.
Carnage grabbed the skull of Daniel Widdel and picked him up off of the mat like a basketball. Amiee Vaughan immediately hopped onto the ring apron to sway Carnage otherwise. Carnage dropped the Television Champion and grasps Amiee around the throat to chokeslam her down to the ringside floor. Daniel made the save with a Dropkick that sends Carnage onto the ropes, causing Victor to fall from the top rope. While Hebner instructed Amiee to get out of harm’s way, Ry Drake removed the steel chair from wedged in the corner and hammered it across the mat before tossing it at The Statement. Victor Phillips caught the chair with ease as Ry Drake faked injury as he collapsed onto the floor (Eddie Guerrero-style) just as Hebner turned around to see the commotion. Amiee Vaughan coaxes the referee to believe that Victor used the foreign object while the crowd cheers loudly for this tactic. Unfortunately for the Statement, Hebner falls for it and signals for the bell.
Zoey Valentine: Victor Phillips has been eliminated via disqualification for use of the foreign object.
Victor and Veda tried to protest this decision to the dismay of the fans, but that only manages to get Hebner riled up enough to eject Veda Scott from ringside ALONG with Victor Phillips.
Prof. X: The World Heavyweight Champion is all on his own against the entire opposition.
Francine: Can’t knock their strategy to get the Machine down to their last member.
The Carter: I’m sad that Veda had to go away…
Carnage fights off the opposition before locking into a test of strength with Casey Cortez. The two seem evenly matched until Carnage gains the upper hand as he bought Casey down on one knee. Daniel Widdel latched onto the Hardcore Monster’s back with a Rear Naked Choke. Carnage began to fade from the hold but he threw his body backwards into the corner to remove this minor annoyance. Ry Drake struck with a Jumping Double Knee Facebuster just as Daniel Widdel slipped off of Carnage’s shoulders to only bring the Hardcore Monster to his knees. That was all that the MisFits needed to perform ANOTHER Spike Piledriver to the Hardcore Monster.
Prof. X: What is it going to take to put the Hardcore Monster away? He’s still showing signs of life after a second Spike Piledriver.
Francine: What’s even just as insane is the fact that these most unlikely of allies are working together to take him down.
The Carter: Well, it’s either work together or fall individually in a promptly manner.
Once again, the Hardcore Monster sat up from the canvas, but the Lady So Divine comes down from the top rope with the Delta Force (Shooting Star Press).
Prof. X: Who’s the legal man...or woman… on Team Champions? I honestly lost track here myself among all of the excitement.
Francine: I’m pretty sure they did after seeing the strategy they are adopting in the ring right now...
The entire team dogpiles on top of the World Heavyweight Champion as the GZWA Nation counts along.
ONE…
TWO…
THREE!!!
Somehow, someway, the rebellious team of Ry Drake, Daniel Widdel, Delta Madison, Laura Jackson, and Casey Cortez defeated the Machine in dominating fashion tonight. Is this the beginning of cracks in the Machine’s armor?
Prof. X: That’s all the time we have for tonight, ladies and gentlemen. Stay tuned for ReAction, coming up shortly.
