Singles Match
"The Blonde Bombshell" Sarah Richardson vs. Zabrina Masters

Prof. X: We haven’t seen Sarah Richardson in action in quite some time, but it’s a pleasant surprise to see the Blonde Bombshell here tonight. Her opponent tonight is a Vixen who is quickly turning heads within the women’s division, Zabrina Masters - the better half of Desmond Masters who will be competing later tonight.
Francine: In other words, we have two budding staples of our ever-growing Women's Division. 
The Carter: More like fine ass examples... 
Francine: Ugh, where's the Tylenol...

After the sound of the bell to the start this match, Zabby opens with a Clothesline towards Sarah, only for the Blonde Bombshell to respond by ducking underneath her attack. Sarah stood back up and capitalizes with a German Suplex. Sarah aimed to follow up with a Boston Crab but Zabby kicks her into the ropes to prevent being trapped into this compromising situation. Zabby sprung back to her feet and caught Sarah on the rebound with a Hurracanrana rolled into a Rana holding pin.

ONE…

TWO…

NO!!!

The Blonde Bombshell shoves Zabrina’s body off her own to break the pin. Zabby returned to her feet first and continued on offense. She hits the ropes and rebounds with the Zabby Shock (Wheelbarrow Bulldog) to the waking Blonde Bombshell. With Sarah grounded again, Zabby jumped from the top rope with a Diving Cross Body as the Blonde Bombshell slowly returned to her feet. To Zabby’s surprise, Sarah caught her out of the air and grounds Zabrina with a Front Fireman’s Carry Slam. The Blonde Bombshell shows some flair by adding a Standing Shooting Star Press for good measure. Unfortunately, Zabby puts her knees up to defend and sprung back to her feet while Sarah Richardson was left holding her abdomen. Zabrina then hits the ropes and closes in with the Zab Attack ( Running Hip Attack to kneeling opponent) off the rebound. The Blonde Bombshell met Zabrina with an explosive Release German Suplex into the corner to counter. With Zabrina dazed from the impact, Sarah reeled her in her out of the corner and right into the Wipe Out (Overhead Uranage) to plant her firmly to the canvas before going for a pin.

ONE…

TWO…

THREE!!!



Prof. X: It was a noble effort on Zabrina’s behalf but Sarah Richardson came out on top tonight, kicking off this PPV with a bang.
The Carter: I hope we start to see more of Sarah Richardson, even though I’m fan of both of these lovely ladies.
Francine: Easy there, Carter, before Zabrina’s husband ends up going bang all over your face with your brains all over the floor - even though I doubt there’s not much up there to lose…
The Carter: HEY!!

Triple Threat Match
Chance Justice vs. Luke "The Irresistible" Force (in-ring debut) vs. Desmond Masters

Francine: What’s the 411 on these new guys, professor?
Prof. X: We know Desmond Masters as he’s the husband of Zabrina Masters, who competed in singles competition earlier tonight against Sarah Richardson.
Francine interjects, “I hope he fares better than his lovely wife did in our opening contest…”
The Carter: Well she’s didn’t make an ass out of herself… But that’s besides the point, I’m sure Desmond’s is proud of her no matter what.”
Prof. X: No doubt there. Chance Justice is still fairly new, who made his in-ring debut on the previous episode of Primetime. As for Mr. Force, his signing with the company was quite the spectacle as his personal organization held a press release to announce that he was joining our company. Can’t say that I’m familiar with his work outside of GZWA, but he’s definitely a promising prospect like the rest of his competition here tonight.
The Carter: Yeah, it’s going to be a challenge for these guys to bust out a win in a match like this AND manage to impress GZWA Management with their performances here to boot. I’d hate to be in their shoes. That’s for sure.

Chance Justice connects with a Big Boot to Desmond Masters to send him tumbling over the top rope, but he manages to land onto the ring apron. Before Chance could continue dealing with Desmond, he found himself being spun around and tossed across the ring by the Irresistible Force himself with a T-Bone Suplex. Force took a moment to pose for the crowd, which allowed Desmond connect with the Adrenaline Spark (Phenomenal Forearm) after launching himself back into the ring from the ring apron. Desmond continued his offense with a Deadlift Release German Suplex to the grounded Luke Force. Unknown to Desmond, Luke Force landed safely on his feet. Desmond found himself preoccupied as he’s floored with a Spear from the waking Chance Justice. Luke charged in with a Spear of his own, only for Chance to leapfrog over it with ease. Chance fired off a Super Kick as Luke turned around, only to have his foot caught in motion and reversed into a Stunner to leave him flat on the canvas.

Luke Force went for the cover.

ONE…

TWO…

T--NO!!!

Desmond Masters broke the pin with the Guard Shifter (Boom Drop) over Luke’s spine. Desmond struck with a Spinning Backfist as Luke returned to a vertical base. Luke postponed his ascension long enough to duck underneath the incoming blow, which allowed him to retaliate with Belly to Belly Suplex. Desmond flies across the ring, but Luke doesn’t see Chance closing in from behind. Chance applies the Justice Is Served (Octopus Hold) to the unsuspecting Superstar. Luke Force drops to his knees, visually in pain from this lethal hold. Force bites tooth and nail against the hold, but it’s only a matter of when he is going to submit to the pain. Chance Justice found his hold being broken by force as Desmond Masters connects with a Rolling Elbow to the back of his head. With Chance grounded, Desmond wasted no time applying the Calf Killer to turn the tables.

The Carter: Doesn’t look like Chance has a ‘chance’ to win now, eh?
Francine: I KNEW you couldn’t help yourself on that joke.

Luke returns Desmond’s earlier favor with a Running Knee Strike to the back of the head to break the hold. Chance Justice took the opportunity to roll out of the ring to recuperate. Luke went for a Figure Four on Desmond, only for the young Superstar to dropkick him away into the corner. Desmond kips back up to his feet and vaults towards the corner with a Handspring Cutter, but found himself being slammed into the corner instead by Luke responding with an Elbow Smash to the back before Snap Suplexing Desmond into the corner. Desmond lands into a Tree of Woe position and pulls himself up onto the top rope. Luke attempts to stop him but Desmond kicks him away and motions for a Moonsault. Luke reeled from the blow but shook the nearby ropes, causing Desmond to lose his footing and collapse on the top rope. This allows Luke to capitalize with the Irresistible Slam (Top Rope Powerslam), dropping Desmond to the canvas with authority. What the two Superstars didn’t see coming was Chance Justice slingshotting himself back into the ring with Only Need One Chance (Curb Stomp), smashing both Desmond and Luke’s heads against each other as they simultaneously hit the mat. Chance covered both Superstars at the same time.

ONE…

TWO…

THREE!!!



Prof. X: And just like that, Chance Justice picks up the win here tonight in his first GZWA PPV appearance. 
The Carter: In other words, he took his opponents to Slam Town then?
Francine: Oh god... Don't tell me we're in for this all night long...

Singles Match
"Tattooed Beauty" Laura Jackson vs. Zora Graysen

Prof. X: Things didn’t seem to be going well for the Tattooed Beauty after feuding with Jennifer Dunn for the last few months. It was looking like Jennifer was going to finally get her just desserts, but she disappeared from GZWA without a trace. I have to wonder what have transpired if those two women where finally allowed a platform to put their rivalry to an end.
The Carter: Jennifer did have some awesome parties though…
Francine: C’mon, Carter, we know that you weren’t invited. You merely watched her drunken SnapChats.
The Carter: Guilty as charged, Frannie.
Prof. X: Laura Jackson has a different challenge standing in her way as the woman who defeated Jennifer Dunn in her last GZWA match before her mysterious disappearance, Zora Graysen.
Francine: I think even Zora was surprised that she managed to defeat Jennifer. Word going around the locker room is that Zora’s confidence has been shot since she lost against her trainer Morgane Renaud during Reina de Reinas Dos last year.

At the sound of the opening bell, the Tattooed Beauty sought out to end this match quickly with the Bedtime (Spinning Roundhouse Kick) straight to Zora’s ribs. This came to a surprise to Zora Graysen who had her hand extended in a friendly gesture to open this match. This attack clearly declined that offer to Zora’s dismay. That only fired up her temper. Zora catches Laura’s foot in motion and spun it around before she went for the She Wolf (Snapmare Driver). Laura elbows Zora in the gut to prevent her from hitting this maneuver and turned the tables by flooring Zora with a Russian Leg Sweep.

The Tattooed Beauty positions herself onto the top rope before executing a Diving Leg Drop. Zora Graysen rolls out the way at the last second to avoid this maneuver, leaving Laura Jackson in a seated position. Zora was quickly to capitalize on Laura’s folly with a Hair Pull Backbreaker. Zora’s offense didn’t stop there. She hits the ropes and returned with a Bicycle Kick. Zora then followed up with a Leaping Clothesline towards the waking Tattooed Beauty. Laura Jackson sprung back to her feet and instantly stopped Zora in her tracks by catching her into her arms with a Rib Breaker. Laura returned the favor for Zora’s previous transgressions with two more Rib Breakers in succession before dropping Zora’s body to the mat.

Zora Graysen didn’t give up as she groggily staggered back to her feet. The Tattooed Beauty wanted to put this weary warrior to rest for good. With that in mind, Laura Jackson went to lock in the Nighty-Night (Body Scissors/Headlock combination), only for Zora Graysen to respond with a Bridging Northern Lights Suplex to pin Laura’s shoulders to the mat before she could even get the hold properly applied.

ONE…

TWO…

THR--WAIT!!

Laura wasn’t going out like this. She rolls through back to her feet with Zora Graysen in tow by surprising her opponent and the GZWA Nation into an explosive Tampa Driver (Cradle Piledriver) reversal. Laura covered Zora’s body in a pin of her own.

ONE…

TWO…

THREE!!!



Prof. X: And just like that, the Tattooed Beauty reminds the GZWA Nation that she's a force to be reckoned with. If she keeps this up, then she could be well on her way to be in the conversation for a future Women's Championship opportunity.

Tag Team Match
The Mega Busters (Matthew Miles & Psycho Sagus; w/ Ashleigh Cash) vs. The Enforcers (Dequan Wallace & G-Money Briggs)

Prof. X: For several years of their fabled careers, the Mega Busters and the Enforcers have had a bitter rivalry that spans outside of their durations here in GZWA. It only took one small spark to kickstart this rivalry once again, with the Mega Busters finding themselves neck deep into danger.
Francine: Let’s be serious here. The Enforcers would have a problem with the Mega Busters if they breathed towards them the wrong way. That’s all what it really takes to set those guys off. I gotta say that the Mega Busters have balls to take the fight to them for once though.
The Carter: The things one would do to impress their ladies… Trust me, I’ve been there plenty of times.
Francine: Well, at least Ashleigh Cash is out here with her man. I’ve never seen this imaginary woman of yours out here at your side, Carter.

The Mega Busters were eager to get things started as they saw the Enforcers marching down the ramp during their entrances. Matthew Miles and Psycho Sagus dive out of the ring to greet the Enforcers with stereo Diving Hurracanranas. To the Mega Busters’ dismay, the Enforcers responded by catching them both out of the air with ease onto their shoulders. G-Money Briggs and Dequan Wallace proceed with a Powerbomb Sandwich before slamming them both onto the ring apron with two Powerbombs in unison. The Mega Busters attempted to get back up, but Psycho Sagus collapses face-first onto the floor after the impact while Matthew Miles is rolled underneath the bottom rope as Dequan Wallace starts the match. Dequan Irish whips Matthew Miles into the ropes and hits the adjacent ropes before rebounding from the ropes and impacting into Miles with the full force of the Bullet (Da Pounce). Ashleigh Cash cringes at the impact but pounds on the ring apron ferociously to urge her boyfriend not to give up.

Prof. X: Right off the bat, this is already looking bowling shoe ugly.
Francine: It was ugly when the Mega Busters signed their death wishes by accepting this match.

Dequan Wallace arrogantly pins Miles with one foot firmly planted onto his chest.

ONE…

TWO…

TH--NO!!!

Fortunately for Miles, Sagus was there to make the save at the last second. Psycho Sagus connected with a Missile Dropkick from behind that sends Dequan flying forward and causes him to inadvertently knock G-Money Briggs off the ring apron with a Shoulder Thrust. While Dequan was cursing himself for taking out his own partner, the Mega Busters kicked him into the corner with a Double Dropkick to turn the momentum over into their favor. Sagus got down on all fours, allowing Miles to use him as a stepping stone to perform a Poetry in Motion/Running Cannonball Senton combination on Dequan slumped into the corner. The Mega Busters didn’t stop there - Miles picks up Sagus onto his shoulders and charges the corner, before dropping Sagus onto Dequan with a Running Death Valley Driver.

The Carter: That’s one unique way to use some teamwork if your partner is willing to be used like a weapon like that!
Francine: It’s called giving your all or nothing at all, Carter. The Mega Busters came prepared and ready to do whatever it takes to win tonight.
Prof. X: It’s not over yet though, not by a long shot. At least those boys were able to turn this around. I was beginning to think that this was going to be a one-sided affair.

With Dequan prone in front of the turnbuckle, Miles climbed the turnbuckle and hit a Reverse 450 Splash (Mustafa Ali). Ashleigh clapped as Miles made the pin.

ONE…

TWO…

TH--NO!!

Miles found himself dragged out of the ring and into the G-String (Stretch Muffler) by G-Money Briggs. Miles managed to hold onto the bottom rope, which gave him some leverage to perform a Hurracanrana to free himself and smash G-Money’s face onto the ring apron to free himself. Matthew Miles then vaulted back up onto the ring apron and slingshot himself back into the ring towards the waking Dequan Wallace. Dequan was merely playing possum as Miles is swatted instantly out of the air with the Shotgun (The Gore) at point-blank range. Dequan went for the cover, but found himself trapped within the Koji Clutch from Miles.

Prof. X: Turnabout is fair play here. Looks like Dequan is only one who can play possum.

G-Money shook off the cobwebs and reached towards Dequan to help him make a rope break, but Psycho Sagus races around ringside, suicide dives through the ropes at the corner and performs a Tornado DDT (Sami Zayn style) to floor G-Money Briggs at ringside.

The Carter: How much more could Dequan can withstand in this hold??

Dequan can’t reach the ropes, but he pushes himself back to his feet briefly and drops Miles to the mat with a thunderous Front Fireman’s Carry Slam (Mark Henry’s World Strongest Slam). He collapses face-first onto the mat right next to Matthew Miles as our referee has no choice but to start the double knockout count.

Both Superstars crawl to their respective corners and make the the hot tags in unison. G-Money greets Sagus with a Haymaker, who narrowly avoids contact with a well-timed baseball slide between the Enforcer’s legs. Sagus hits the ropes and rebounds with a Springboard Back Elbow. G-Money caught him in motion and hurls Sagus overhead with a Release German Suplex. G-Money towed Sagus back to his feet into a Triple Repeating Powerbomb, with the last Powerbomb being a Release Powerbomb into the nearby corner. Just when one looking on would be enough to end this, G-Money charged into the corner with a Big Splash and ended this lethal combination with a Spinning Sitout Powerbomb that pins Sagus’ shoulders to the mat in the middle of the ring.

To G-Money’s surprise, the referee isn’t making the count. G-Money didn’t notice that Matthew Miles made the blind tag while Sagus was taking this onslaught of punishment. Miles connects with a Tilt-A-Whirl Headscissor Takedown to the waking Enforcer to send him across the ring. Dequan tags himself in and enters with Slingshot Diving Shoulder Block, only to be hit with a kip-up Jumping Double Knee Facebuster (Codebreaker) by the waking Psycho Sagus. G-Money charges out of the corner with a Double Lariat that turns both Mega Busters inside out upon impact. Dequan shook off the cobwebs and joined G-Money in for the Lose/Lose Situation on the waking Mega Busters. The Mega Busters leapfrog in unison over the incoming Dequan, who manages to hit the breaks in time to stop from hitting G-Money but that doesn’t stop the Mega Busters from forcing the Enforcers to headbutt each other with Double Dropkick from behind. The duo sent G-Money over the top rope and tumbling out of the ring with a Double Super Kick. Sagus hit the ropes and soars out of the ring into the waking Enforcer with an Over the top rope Moonsault Plancha (think AJ Styles’ Fosbury Flop). Miles turns his attention towards the waking Dequan who headbutts him in the mid-section to force Miles to double over in pain. This allows Dequan to elevate the lone Mega Buster onto his shoulders with the Claymore (Over Easy/Overhead gutwrench backbreaker rack dropped into a DDT). Dequan executes the maneuver, only to find himself arm dragged to the mat as Miles narrowly escapes that fate. Dequan sprung to his feet with the Shotgun, only for Miles to kick out his legs from underneath him with a Low Dropkick. Dequan’s faceplants into the mat after tripping up and failing to hit the maneuver, which allows Matthew Miles to go for the kill with the Ragnarok (Hammerlock Piledriver). Miles covers Dequan as Ashleigh counts along with the referee.

ONE…

TWO...

G-Money Briggs tries to break the pin but Psycho Sagus is holding onto his leg for dear life to prevent the Enforcer from returning back into the ring.

THREE!!!



The Carter: I think we just witnessed an early Christmas miracle.
Prof. X: I dunno about that. Santa Claus doesn’t come this early, partner.
Francine: Whatever it was, it looks like the Enforcers aren’t too pleased about it.

G-Money Briggs threw Sagus to the floor and armed himself with a steel chair from underneath the ring. G-Money smashes the chair over Sagus’ skull to leave him out cold at ringside. Miles races to his partner’s aid only to be swatted with the chair directly to the face just as he was throwing his body between the ropes with a Suicide Dive. G-Money returned to the ring and went for another chair shot to the waking Matthew Miles, only for Ashleigh Cash to take one for the team instead. G-Money threw the chair to the mat as Dequan put the nail in the coffin on Miles with a Package Piledriver onto the steel chair. If that wasn’t enough, G-Money Briggs piled Ashleigh’s body on top of her boyfriend’s own with a Snap Powerbomb. The already bloodied Sagus tried to attack G-Money from behind with the bodies of his friends scattered among the ring, but his attempts were in vain as G-Money floored him with the Final Exam (Knockout Punch). The last thing the Enforcers did here was lay waste to Sagus with a Doomsday Device, leaving all three members of the Mega Busters bloodied and bruised.

Prof. X: That was truly unsportsmanlike and unprofessional.
Francine: I dare you to tell them that in their faces.
Prof. X: No thank you. I happen to like living.
The Carter: You can say that again, professor.

[Xion Zeros]

Being a boss wasn't something new to Brooklyn. So why would being a mentor be any different. To be honest Brooklyn was quite successful as a valet. She had the connections plus the tons of experience under her belt. Now she was backstage with her newest project Lilly Evol. Brooklyn had been working secretly with Lilly for the past year to really round out her rough spots, beside the women's movement could use some more muscle to wake up the other women who have grown complacent in Brooklyn's eyes.



So the ever so Glamorous one smirked at Lilly who was trying out her new ring gear.



B held up a finger to motion for her to do a spin. B wanted to see the whole 360 before she gave her final opinion. She was quiet for a moment before she said sweetly, "I love it but it could totally use some more bling." Brooklyn nodded her head in agreement with herself. It was then when Lilly raised a eyebrow at her mentor and shook her head no. "Brooklyn seriously if this thing was any more shiny I could light up a freeway at night."

Brooklyn blinked at Lilly in a stunned fashion before she replied, "Lil Ms. Evol you sound bitchy to me. Really...I just want you to make a big splash here. There are so many reasons why you are here. So just listen to me and enjoy the ride." Lilly wasn't sure what Brooklyn meant by that, but knowing Brooklyn it wasn't going to end well for Lilly.

She blew at a breath and rolled her eyes at Brooklyn before she said, "Look...thanks for all you have done for me but I don't think I want to be your plaything. So whatever you have cooking up..." Before Lilly could finish the statement. Brooklyn closed the distance between them. No longer was Brooklyn smiling....her dark brown eyes had grown cold. She looked Lilly up and down before she picked a piece of lint of her shoulder. She said in a soft tone.

"Lilly the only reason you are here....is to be my plaything. So that means that you are going to do what I say, when I say. Or all of this" Brooklyn pointed to all of the craziness of the backstage area and the faint cries of the fans in the background. "Will be gone. Do you understand?" Lilly wanted so badly to say something backs to Brooklyn. But she couldn't Brooklyn was right, Lilly was too new to this business to do anything. So she was stuck with the Glamorous one. Lilly nodded her head in submission. Once again Brooklyn hit her with a flawless smirk and clapped her hands sweetly. "Great....I have to go see Xion now. But feel free to check things out back here." Brooklyn flipped her dark raven locks back over her shoulders and headed off in search of her Xion. Lilly stared after her for a long time...she was so upset about there little exchanged that she hadn't noticed that her hands had been balled up. When she looked down at her hands she saw that her nails had dug into her palms and they were bleeding.

Singles Match
"Sexiest of the Sexy" Maryse Ouellet vs. "Showstoppin' Senorita" Mariah

Prof. X: A few weeks ago on ReAction, Maryse Ouellet made some unsavory remarks that the Showstoppin’ Senorita didn’t take too kindly to. Push came to shove and we saw Mariah issue a challenge for Maryse on social media. It wasn’t a surprise that Maryse would accept as we have never seen these two women square off one-on-one for the first time in a GZWA ring.
Francine: This should definitely be quite the match. Rarely do we see Mariah this fired up for a match like this. Then on the other side of the coin, Maryse isn’t one to shy away from a challenge. We’ve seen her dispatch the veteran Ivory not too long ago, so we can’t rule out the possibility of Maryse pulling an upset against a veteran.
The Carter: I’m all in for this catfight. I hope they come out swinging with the claws out! Meow!

After the bell rung to start this match, both women lock-up to start things off. In this position, Maryse gains the upperhand by kicking Mariah in the shin. The Sexiest of the Sexy forces the Showstoppin’ Senorita to bow to her with a Hair-pull Mat Slam. Maryse repeats this maneuver again before hitting the ropes and connecting with a Running Knee Strike on the rebound for good measure as Mariah was down on all-fours. With Maryse clearly in control of the momentum thus far in this match, she applies the French Pain (Camel Clutch). Mariah was too far from the ropes to go for a break, but she summoned the willpower to stand back up with Maryse still hanging on and performs a standing Wheelbarrow Bulldog to counter and break the hold at the same time.

Mariah took a moment to shake off the cobwebs and connects with the John Woo (Low Ki Running Front Dropkick) to send Maryse forcefully into the adjacent corner. Mariah pursed her foe with a Handspring Roundhouse Kick (Low Ki’s Tidal Crush). The Sexiest of the Sexy derailed her travel plans at the last instant with a Drop to Hold reversal to send Mariah face-first into the turnbuckle.

Maryse held Mariah at bay with a Corner Foot Choke until Referee Lori Kross forces a break after the illegal hold. Maryse obliges briefly before repeating the gesture and flooring Mariah with a Forward Russian legsweep. In the typical arrogant manner of the French-Canadian beauty, Maryse took a moment to cackle and taunt towards Mariah’s friends that she invited to tonight’s event that are sitting on the front row - . This proves to be a mistake as Mariah rolls her up with a School Boy and kicks her in the face with a grounded Enzuigiri before going for a pin.

ONE…

TWO…

NO!!

Maryse crawls for the corner but the Showstoppin’ Senorita is quick to pursue her foe. Mariah closes in with a Heartbreaker (Sweet Chin Music), only for the Sexiest of the Sexy to drag the referee into harm’s way to use Referee Lori Kross as a shield. Mariah stops in time to avoid hitting the referee. The Showstoppin’ Senorita maneuvers around referee to focus back on Maryse, only to be blinded with a spray of perfume into Mariah’s eyes behind the official’s field of vision. With Mariah blinded, Maryse capitalizes with a French Kiss (Snap DDT with theatrics) to plant Mariah’s skull firmly into the canvas. With the GZWA Nation booing collectively for the Sexiest of the Sexy’s foul play here, Maryse smiles like a cheshire cat as she went for the pin.

ONE…

TWO…

THRE---NO!!!

Maryse looks on in disbelief. Mariah rolls out of the ring to avoid another pin attempt and rinses her eyes out with a water bottle underneath the ring. Maryse wasn’t going to let her prey get away from her that easily as she snuck behind the Showstoppin’ Senorita and bounced Mariah’s head over the ring apron. With Mariah stunned, Maryse performs a devastating Swing Backbreaker that drops Mariah over the steel steps. The camera capture onlookers in the crowd cringing at Mariah’s spine contorts like an exorcism upon impact.

Prof. X: It was from a blow like that is what sidelined Mariah from competing earlier this year. Maryse’s vile intentions is obvious - she wants a repeat of that injury.
Francine: Ruthless, yes, but a valid strategy in this match. She doesn’t have to beat Mariah directly if she can simply ensure that Mariah is unable to continue.

Maryse merely dusts her hands off and rolls Mariah back into the ring. She proceeded to stomp over Mariah’s spine repeatedly before applying French Pain (Camel Clutch). This time, the Showstoppin’ Senorita aims for a rope break. Mariah crawls towards the ropes as she fought tooth and nail against the hold. When Mariah’s hand is mere inches away from reaching the ropes, Maryse actually broke the hold before Mariah could reach the ropes and stomps on her hand, must to chagrin of the GZWA Nation. Maryse pets Mariah on her head to belittle her further and chides Mariah in French. Whatever what was said only fired Mariah up and caused her to lunge towards Maryse. Maryse maneuvers out of harm’s way nonchalant with the French TKO (Blindside Heel Kick). That was the plan until Maryse found her legs swept from underneath her with a well-timed Sweep from the Showstoppin’ Senorita that inadvertently causes Maryse to fall against the middle rope in an impromptu Snake Eyes. This blow left the Sexiest of the Sexy wide open for the pending Queendom (Ki Crusher followed by Dragon Clutch hold) from Mariah, dropping her right into the middle of the ring. With nowhere to go, Maryse quickly submits to award Mariah the victory in this match.

Best of Three Falls Match
“The High Spot Hero” Equinox (return) vs. "The IconSlayer" Chris Matthews (return; one night only)

Prof. X: The last time we saw Chris Matthews in a GZWA ring, he was the reigning Television Champion...
Francine: Don’t forget that he was ‘stalking’ Delta Madison for God-Knows-What…
The Carter: I don’t blame the man… I’d follow her to the ends of the Earth too.
Francine: Please, we know you’d follow a woman who happens to cough in your general direction. It doesn’t take much to get your affection.
The Carter: Sue me, Frannie. I got a BIG heart and even bigger needs.
Francine: You need to learn to get a life that doesn’t involve touching yourself…
The Carter: Are you volunteering to be my plus one, Frannie?
Francine: You’ve been on good behavior lately, Carter. Don’t ruin that by making me slap you before this broadcast is over…
Prof. X: Easy there you two… As I was saying, Chris Matthews and Equinox’s rivalry hasn’t been contained in World Wrestling Headquarters, no, it’s been extended out to this special match here in a GZWA ring where these two Superstars wish to bury the hatchet between them once and for all.
The Carter: Hold that thought, professor. Looks like something is going on right now!
Francine: Looks like Chris Matthews wants to burn it all down right off the bat.

The IconSlayer is showing attacking the High Spot Hero from behind as he was making his entrance. Chris Matthews spun Equinox around and connected with the Coup de Grace (Wrist Lock transitioned into a short-arm high knee), causing Nox to tumble down to the bottom of the entrance ramp. Matthews proceeds by throwing Equinox into the steel steps. The IconSlayer took a moment to soak in the chorus of being thrown in his general direction by the GZWA Nation before rolling Nox into the ring. The referee has no choice but to ring the bell to officially start this match with both men in the ring.

Prof. X: No, not like this!
Francine: Don’t be like that, professor. You know as well as I do that Equinox agreed to match knowing full well what he was getting into.
The Carter: That doesn’t mean we have to like it!

Chris Matthews aims to get the first fall right off the bat as he signals for One Shot, One Kill (Pedigree). Nox proves he still has plenty of fight left as he flips Matthews overhead to counter and hits Dark Kingdom (Swanton Bomb). Nox quickly covers Matthews.

ONE…

TWO…

THREE!!!

Zoey Valentine announces, “The winner of the first fall, goes to Equinox!”

Prof. X: Remember GZWA fans, this is a Best of Three Falls match.

Chris Matthews is irate as he killed out just after the referee’s hand came down for the three count. The IconSlayer ended his ranting to the official and took his frustration out on who it mattered by connecting with the Blueprint (Superkick to kneeling opponent) as Nox sat up from the mat to leave him back flat. The IconSlayer took to the top rope and unleashed a Frog Splash to prone Nox. Nox rolled out of harm’s way and applied a Muta Lock to the grounded Matthews. Matthews crawled towards the ropes with his fingers inching closer and closer until they found nirvana. Matthews’ hand grasped the ropes firmly to force a rope break. Nox complies but not before repaying Matthews for the earlier gesture in the form of the One Percent Kick (Superkick to kneeling opponent). Nox follows up with the Warning Shot (Wrist Lock transitioned into a Knee to the face) to leave Matthews stunned long enough for Nox to hit the ropes. Nox rebounds from the ropes with the Wayward Destroyer (Front Flip DDT). Matthews counters by elevating Nox into the air and dropping him onto the nearby turnbuckle with a Snake Eyes.

The IconSlayer proceeded to lift Nox onto his shoulders in a Crucifix Powerbomb position and charged towards the adjacent corner before hurling Nox like a Lawn Dart at the turnbuckle. The IconSlayer didn’t let up on his offense in the least as he positioned Nox on the top rope and brought them both crashing down to the mat below with a Top Rope Falcon Arrow. Matthews dragged Nox back to his feet and spiked him head-first into the canvas with another Falcon Arrow. Before Matthews could make the pin, Nox rolled underneath the bottom rope and out of the ring to escape that fate.

No way that the IconSlayer was going to allow Nox to get off that easy. Matthews hit the ropes and threw himself out of the ring with a Suicide Dive Somersault Senton. To Matthews’ surprise, Nox caught him out of the air and dropped him on the bottom of the entrance ramp with a Package Piledriver. Nox left Matthews out cold at ringside and returned to the ring as the referee began the ring out count.

Chris Matthews threw himself back into the ring shortly before the count of 10 to narrowly avoid the count out. Nox greeted Matthews back to his feet with a Rainmaker Clothesline to floor the IconSlayer. Nox took to the top rope and went for the Dark Kingdom (Swanton Bomb), much like how he scored the first fall in this match. The IconSlayer put his knees up to defend against this aerial maneuver and dragged Nox into position for the One Shot, One Kill (Pedigree). Nox flipped Matthews overhead to counter, hit the ropes and connected with the Shot in The Dark (Front Flip Piledriver Destroyer) on the rebound. Nox makes the cover.

ONE…

TWO…

THREE!!!



Zoey Valentine: “The winner of the second fall and the winner of this Best of Three Falls contest, Equinox!”

Prof. X: “It was a back and forth contest, but in the end Equinox came out on top. I definitely enjoyed seeing two WWH vets here giving their all in a GZWA ring, even if it’s for one night in Matthews’ case.”

GZWA Vixen Women's Championship Match
Fatal 4 Way Match

Blake Harper (champion) vs. "Silver Screen Queen" Crystal Millar vs. "Million Dollar Bitch" Susie Price (w/ Danielle Price) vs. Talia Areano

Prof. X: For several months now, Blake Harper has been turning heads after being the first woman to hold the Vixen Championship after the title has been reactivated following the reinvigoration of the Vixen division following Reina de Reinas Dos. She has taken it as her responsibility to rechristen the title the Women’s Championship as it was back in the company’s roots. Following that turn of events and the success of her ongoing open challenges, we saw Blake gain an arrogant attitude. Her peers didn’t take too kindly to this change of heart as we saw not one but several women vying for the opportunity to lay claim to challenging for this championship. That brings us to this match tonight where Blake is stacked with not one but three challengers for her precious title.
Francine: Without her MMA friends and not even her former lover CM Punk in her corner, Blake’s truly on her own here tonight without a single friend in sight. I can’t say that I feel sorry for her because she’s only have herself to blame in this situation. At the same time, she could prove to be her most dangerous as she’s being backed into a corner with no other means but fighting back in this all or nothing contest.
The Carter: Both Talia Areano and Crystal Millar are already titleholders for various promotions outside of the GZWA Nation. It’s only a matter of time before they capture gold here in GZWA. Then there’s the devious hellspawn herself, Susie Price, who has declared that she doesn’t care how much pain and suffering she has to inflict to get what she wants.

Blake held the title above her head during the introductions by Zoey Valentine, kissing it before handing it to Referee Lori Kross. The match starts off with everyone collectively working against Susie Price instead of Blake Harper. Susie ducks an incoming Double Clothesline from Crystal and Blake and floors Talia with a Slingblade. Susie rebounds from ropes with a Shotgun Dropkick to both Crystal and Blake, only to propelled into the air and onto the top of the turnbuckle. Susie’s face driven onto the steel with enough force to crack and break a section of her mask away. Susie fell over the top rope clutching her precious mask, hitting the ring apron on her way down to the ringside floor as her sister Danielle rushes to her side.

Crystal continues the match with a Hair Pull Snapmare to fling Blake across the ring and dissolve their temporary alliance. She follows up with a Springboard Tornado DDT to the waking Blake, only for the reigning champion to respond with a Spinebuster. After the Silver Screen Queen’s body hits the mat, Blake transitions into a Kneeling Inverted Sharpshooter (Edgecator). Blake wasn’t able to maintain the hold for long before the hold was broken by Talia intervening with a Running Enzuigiri. Talia took advantage of Blake’s moment of weakness with a Swinging Neckbreaker and Standing Moonsault once Blake hit the mat. Blake answered with knees up to defend herself. Now with the tables turned into the champion’s favor, Blake positions Talia onto her shoulders in a Backbreaker Rack before dropping Talia directly into a Double Knee Backbreaker. Before Blake could go for the cover, Crystal attacked from behind with several Repeated Elbow Smashes in the spine before beckoning the champion back to her feet for the Flashing Lights (Chick Kick). Crystal floors the champion with the blow and went for Smell the Roses (Handspring Standing Moonsault) but Blake rolls out onto ring apron. Crystal dragged her back to her feet by dragging her to her feet by her crimson hair. Crystal aimed to bring her back into the ring by force with a Snap Suplex back into the ring, but Blake powered out with a Shoulder Thrust between the ropes. Blake turns the tables once again by Suplexing the Silver Screen Queen over the ropes and down to the floor next to Danielle tending to Susie. 
The camera focuses back into the ring. Where we see Talia pumping up the crowd, until she makes her way to one of the corners. At that moment Talia runs to the opposite corner and launched herself out of the ring, performing the Golden Triangle Moonsault (made famous by Kota Ibushi), wiping out everybody at ringside in the process.

The self-proclaimed Million Dollar Bitch is the first one back to her feet. The camera captures a glimpse of the broken portion of her mask exposed with blood covering that exposed section of her face. Talia Areano was the first one to experience Susie Price’s wrath. She took out her anger on her with a Reverse Hurracanrana after leapfrogging over her body, smashing the back of her skull into the steel steps. One would expect that she would stop there, but no. Susie rolled Talia back into the ring and connects with The Nose-Breaker) Running Facewash to the nose before proceeding with a cover of her own.

ONE…

TWO…

T--WAIT!!!

Crystal drags Susie off Talia’s body and sought out to trap her within the The Withering Rose (Elevated Boston Crab). Susie refuses to roll her hips and kicks Crystal into the ropes to counter and caught her on the rebound with the X-Plex. Talia returns to this conversation with an explosive Spear from nowhere to Susie immediately after out while Crystal rolls out onto ring apron. Talia rebounds from the ropes and connects with the Rush Hour (Sliding Forearm Smash/Sliding D/Flashpoint; popularized by Masato Tanaka). Immediately following the impact of that maneuver, Blake slides in with Mercy (Essex Destroyer) and covers Talia Areano.

ONE…

TWO…

THR---WAIT!!!

Once again, the Silver Screen Queen broke the near-fall; thus time with the Lights, Camera, Action (Jack Evans 630 Corkscrew Senton). Crystal covers Blake for a pin of her own.

ONE…

TWO…

THRE---NO!!!

Talia Areano and Susie Price threw themselves across the ring to break the pinfall in time. All four battle-wearly women stagger to their feet. Susie Price and Crystal Millar made the first move, managing to knock out each other by executing the Super Kick and Flashing Lights (Chick Kick) at the same time. Blake Harper turned her attention to Talia by striking first with Spinning Back Fist. Talia manages duck underneath the blow and hits the ropes. She returns with a Running Bulldog on the rebound and goes for the kill with the Slice of Heaven (Sliced Bread 2). Blake responds by dropping her onto the top turnbuckle to counter. The champion then positions herself underneath to follow-up with a Turnbuckle Powerbomb, only for Talia to answer with the Solar Shower (Double Foot Stomp) landing directly onto Blake’s shoulders.

Talia found herself dropkicked back into the corner by Crystal. The Silver Screen Queen Monkey Flips Talia out of the corner and across the ring. Crystal took to the top rope and motioned for the Lights, Camera, Action! (Jack Evans 630 Corkscrew) but found herself shoved from the top rope by Blake Harper. Crystal crashes down to ringside while Blake Harper set her mind on the task at hand. Blake found herself beaten to the punch as she’s spun around by Talia Areano and hit with with the Slice of Heaven (Sliced Bread 2). With the reigning champion floored, Talia went for the win, only to receive the Heimlich (Backstabber) from Susie Price. Blake found herself dragged back to her feet by the Million Dollar Bitch, but greeted her with an unpleasant European Uppercut. Susie reeled from the blow, only to roar back at Blake in defiance and begging for more. Blake struck again with a Back Fist, connecting with enough force to crack Susie’s precious mask even further, but the Million Dollar Bitch held her ground and exchanged a series of pleasantries of her own in the form of the Three Steps to Death (Forearm strike combination followed by a palm strike). Blake powered through the forearm strike and floored Susie with a Double Leg Takedown before she could land the palm strike. Blake felt at home in this familiar territory, she had the advantage with her adversary in this position that she’s won time and time again from her unsanctioned and official MMA fights. The keyword was had the advantage. The second Blake went for a series of mounted forearms, she fell right into Susie’s trap as she trapped her right into the Separation Anxiety (Bridging Armbar).

Talia Areano and Crystal Millar scrambled to break the hold, but an audible CRACK made time stand still as both women knew it was too late. Blake Harper found herself tapping out as she cried out in agony.

Zoey Valentine: “The winner and NEW GZWA Women’s Champion, Susie Price!”



Prof. X: After a such a hard fought match, any one of these women could have walked away as the champion. Susie Price declared that she was taking over GZWA piece by piece and we’ve definitely seen that plan in motion tonight.
Francine: I guess the first order of business is buying a new face mask…
The Carter: Uhhh, guys. It looks like Blake’s in rough shape following that match.

Referee Lori Kross looks over Blake Harper after the finish and holds up the X sign to signal for the medical crew. Blake refuses medical attention, but it’s clear that she’s suffered some type of injury. Despite her protests, the medical crew helps the former champion walk backstage.

GZWA Tag Team Championship Match

The Honourable Princes ("The Iceman" Konrad Raab and "Crown Prince" Samuel Chatman; champions) vs. The Frosts ("The Dominiqtrix" Dominique Frost and Eliza Frost) and "The Bobbilcious One" Bobbi Jackson (via the Freebirds rule)

Prof. X: Over the past few months, we have seen the Frosts and Bobbi Jackson turn their bitter rivalry into an alliance as they have set out to take the tag team division by storm. On the other side of the coin, the Honourable Princes have scratched and clawed their way to the top of this division and overthrown the Enforcers for tag team supremacy. They have recently dissolved the partnership between Fear Hollywood’s Jayson Heagerty and The Miz after they failed to overcome the Princes. To the surprise of the GZWA Nation, it was the ladies who were so forward to issue this challenge tonight that these gentlemen have kindly accepted.
Francine: Don’t forget that Samuel Chatman has been having some issues having to put his hands on women as of late. Poor thing doesn’t want to hurt us delicate flowers… More men should be more gentleman like Mr. Chatman.
The Carter: I dunno, Franny. I don’t have a problem putting my hands on a woman - if you catch my drift…
Francine: How about you keep your hands to yourself, Carter? Sadly, being a gentleman might be a liability in this business as there’s always going to be someone to take your kindness as a weakness.
Prof. X: Sad but true, I’m afraid. We can only hope that the Honourable Princes can overcome this battle of the sexes.
The Carter: The better question is which two of these three women are they going to have to defend their titles against tonight?

That question seemed to be answered right off the bat as Bobbi Jackson and Eliza Frost settle on wrestling this match for their trio while Samuel Chatman starts off for the Honourable Princes. At the sound of the bell, Eliza Frost locks up with Samuel Chatman, but he easily gains upper hand by wrenching Eliza’s arm back into a Hammerlock position. Eliza smirks before she sensually grinds her hips against Sam’s torso. He awkwardly releases the hold, allowing Eliza to quickly retaliate with a Mat Slam. Sam crawled back to his feet where Eliza was quick to floor him again with a Snap DDT. Eliza confidently ascends to the top rope and executes a picture perfect Snow Storm (Standing Moonsault Double Knee Drop). To her dismay, the Crown Prince rolls out of the way, allowing the younger Frost sibling to crash and burn onto the canvas. The Crown Prince turned the tide of this battle with a Tazzplex/Capture Suplex to toss Eliza across the ring.

Sam stood back up, beckoning her to come back for more. Eliza looked appalled that her charms weren’t going to work to her advantage as she leaned against the corner to revise her strategy. Since Eliza wasn’t going to make a move, Sam took matters into his own hands. The Crown Prince charged the corner with a Turnbuckle Cross Body. Eliza met him in motion with an explosive Reverse STO onto the turnbuckle to counter. She breathed a sigh of relief before hitting the ropes and returning with a Running Hip Attack into the waking Crown Prince in the corner. Eliza Frost teases this crowd with her body like only she could. She knew that everyone that lusts after her would be like putty in her hands. This man would be no different as she went for the Stink Face. To Eliza’s surprise, she found herself raised onto the Crown Prince’s shoulders before being dropped face-first into the canvas with an Electric Chair Drop from out of the corner. With Eliza in this uncompromising position, Sam assumed control once again by applying the Cloverleaf Pain. Eliza desperately reached for the ropes, but her attempts were in vain as Sam dragged her right back towards the center of the ring and secured the hold once more. Eliza found herself mere moments away from considering to submit to this hold and spare herself from further anguish. Fortunately for the youngest Frost sibling, she found salvation via the Bobbilicious One’s well-placed intervention in the form of a Superkick to Sam’s jaw to break the hold.

Bobbi Jackson’s intervention didn’t go on deaf ears as Konrad Raab inserts himself into this conversation with a Release German Suplex to send Bobbi across the ring. Before the Iceman could continue his offense, Dominique Frost (who was standing at ringside) drags Bobbi underneath the bottom rope and out of the ring to avoid any further punishment. Oh no - Konrad
Raab wasn’t going to let them get away that easily. He hits the ropes and threw his body between the ropes with a Suicide Dive out of the ring. Dominique sees Raab coming and instantly shoves Bobbi out of the way to take the full force of the impact.

Back within the ring, Eliza executes a Teardrop Suplex to the waking Crown Prince before proceeding to tag Bobbi Jackson who just returned to her team’s corner on the ring apron. The Bobbilicious One enters by coming down from the top rope with a Diving Moonsault. After landing onto the grounded Crown Prince, Bobbi Jackson and Eliza Frost executed a tandem assault in the form of a simultaneous Running Clothesline (Eliza) and Chop Block (Bobbi) combination when the Crown Prince attempted to return to a vertical base. With Samuel Chatman down and out, this left him susceptible to the pending Show-Shooter (Slightly Modified Sharpshooter) by the Bobbilicious One.

Fortunately for the Crown Prince, it was the Iceman’s turn to save his partner from this unfavorable situation, much like Bobbi spared Eliza from a similar fate. In this case, Konrad Raab broke the hold with a well-timed Spear to Bobbi Jackson. Both Bobbi and Sam are left writhing on the mat as their respective teammates urge them back to their feet.

The Crown Prince makes the first move and made the hot tag to the Iceman awaiting on the ring apron. On the opposite end of the ring, Bobbi was looking to do the same, but Sam prevented Eliza’s tag with Apron Running Knee Attack to knock her to the ringside floor before Bobbi could make the tag. Sam then connects with a Jumping Enzuigiri that allows Konrad Raab to follow up with Rolling German Suplex (think Doug Williams’ Chaos Theory) into a bridge to pin her shoulders to the mat.

ONE…

TWO…

THRE---WAIT!!!

The referee ceased their count just as Dominique Frost stood on the ring apron to distract the official. Sam shook the ropes to force Dominique over the ropes and threw her right into the pending Ice Storm (Diamond Cutter) from the Iceman. While the Dominiqtrix rolled out of the ring upon impact, the Iceman set his crosshairs back on the task at hand. He charged towards
the waking Bobbilicious One with Spear, only for Bobbi to leapfrog over the attack at the last instant. Eliza then pulls the ropes down, allowing the Iceman to tumble out of the ring.

Bobbi and Eliza thought they gained the upper hand just now, but they couldn’t be further mistaken. They were not aware of the Crown Prince making the blind tag. He entered with an One Hand Bulldog to floor the Bobbilicious One. He grappled her from behind and elevated her up for the Royal Slam (Glam Slam). To Sam’s dismay, Bobbi rolls through upon landing into another Show-Shooter to turn the tables once more. Samuel Chatman rolled his hips and kicks Bobbi into the ropes to free himself before the hold was properly applied. Bobbi rebounds from the ropes with a Spear of her own, only to be met with Windmill Kick to counter after the Crown Prince sprung back up to his feet. Samuel shook off the cobwebs momentarily before taking to the top rope. The Crown Prince then took flight with the Crown’s Jewel (Shooting Star Press). Unfortunately, Bobbi Jackson rolled out of the way to allow Samuel to hit nothing but canvas. As Sam tried to get up, Bobbi greeted him with a kick to the midsection before executing the Pedigree. Before she could go for the pin, Bobbi notices the returning Iceman and hits the ropes once more. Bobbi rebounds from the ropes on the opposite end of the ring and dove between the ropes, Spearing the returning Iceman off the ring apron down to the floor.

Taking a page from the Honourable Princes earlier in this match, Eliza Frost made a blind tag during Bobbi’s noble sacrifice. Licking her lips with anticipation, Eliza catapulted herself back into the ring with a Slingshot Body Scissors to the waking Crown Prince. Samuel Chatman caught her into his arms and into the Royal Anarchy (Powerbomb into a bridge pin) right into the middle of the ring.

ONE…

TWO…

THRE--WAIT!!!

Eliza turned the tables by trapping the Crown Prince within the Frosty Top Popper (Modified Figure-Four Headscissors). With nowhere to go, Samuel submits to the hold thus awarding the victory to the team of the Frosts and Bobbi Jackson.



Zoey Valentine: “Your winners and NEW GZWA Tag Team Champions, Eliza Frost and Bobbi Jackson!”

Prof. X: After a spectacle like this, I wasn’t able to tell who was going to win this match tonight. Both teams gave it their all, but only one team was able to come out on top.
The Carter: I agree, professor, but I hope I get invited to the victory celebrations at Showtime Manor!
Francine: Please, I’m sure they are going to have added security to make sure you’re NOT invited.

[Xion Zeros]

GZWA World Heavyweight Championship
3-on-3 Tornado Tag Team Match
Member Who Scores Winning Pinfall/Submission Is the World Heavyweight Champion

GZWA World Heavyweight Champion "The Wraith" Ry Drake, "The Mountain" Rex Terrell, and "Queen of Submission" Casey Cortez
vs.
"The Goddess" Amanda Cortez, Jayson Heagerty, and Justin Lockhart

After all 6 competitors are standing in the ring, the GZWA Chairman appears on the Titantron monitor with a final statement before tonight’s main event could begin.

Xion Zeros | GZWA Chairman: “I want to wish everyone in this match the best of luck. To make things even more interesting for this main event, I’m going to make one final revision to the rules. This match is anything goes, no disqualification, no count outs. There MUST be a clear, decisive winner. I don’t care if it takes all night either.”

Ry Drake is throwing up his hands in protest as the GZWA Nation cheers for this final decree.

Prof. X: Well you heard it yourself, folks. We better scrap in for the long haul on this main event with a match like this with everyone gunning for the World Heavyweight Championship. To make a long story short, Ry Drake has a huge bullseye on his back as he has not one but three potential threats to his title reign.
Francine: Correction, five. You have to be crazy if you want to rule out that his trusted followers - Rex and Casey - are going to allow an opportunity like this to become the World Heavyweight Champion just by scoring the winning pinfall or submission.
The Carter: I doubt that, Franny. They’ve been like two brick walls standing in the way of anyone trying to challenge Drake period.
Prof. X: Fair points, but in either case, we’re in store for one hell of a slobberknocker.

The bell rung and just like that the action began like a shot out of a cannon. Jayson and Justin brought Rex down to his knees with Double Low Dropkick. After that, they tried to Irish whip him towards the ropes but the Mountain reels them back in into Double Clothesline to floor both men with ease. Rex got back to his feet and charged straight towards Amanda Cortez. The Goddess avoids this fatal collision by baseball sliding between Rex’s legs to avoid the incoming Shoulder Block coming her way. Rose Cortez (who was standing on the ring apron) pulls down the ropes, causing Rex to tumble out of the ring.

Amanda Cortez may have avoided being pummeled by Rex Terrell, but she’s definitely not out of the woods yet as she slid right into Casey’s grasp who spun her around before slamming the Goddess into the mat with a Sidewalk Slam. Casey followed up with a Leg Drop, but missed the mark on grounded Amanda Cortez. Justin Lockhart capitalizes on the situation with series of Yes Kicks while Jayson Heagerty hits diving 450 Splash on waking Rex at ringside. Everyone forgot about Ry Drake up to this point as he attacks Justin Lockhart from behind with a Double Axe Handle to the back. He went for Reverse DDT, only for Justin Lockhart to knee Drake in the face to free himself. A follow-up Pele Kick knocks Drake onto the middle rope. This leaves the Wraith wide open for the Wrecking Ball Dropkick that followed afterwards from Justin.

On the other side of the ring, there’s some other mischief to be had. Amanda and Rose Cortez handcuff Casey to the ropes to keep her restrained and out of the action. The duo proceeded to set up two tables at ringside as Casey cursed them as she struggled at her bonds in vain.

Jayson Heagerty performs Diving Lou Thesz Press to waking Rex, only to be caught out of the air. Rex charges towards the corner post at ringside but Jayson manages to slip out of his grip, allowing Rex to smash head first into the unforgiving steel corner post.
With Casey and Rex temporarily disposed of, Amanda, Jayson, and Justin turned their attention back towards Ry Drake, who was laid out on the ring apron. The trio performs a Triple Powerbomb that the Shield would definitely approve of that sends the Wraith crashing through the two tables. The trio share a fist bump before turning to Rex as it looks like he’s going to share a similar fate to the Wraith.

Rex found himself on the receiving end of punch combinations issued out from Jayson and Justin. Just when the Mountain thought this offense was going to end, Amanda and Rose to floor him with a Con-Chair-to. The foursome of Jayson Heagerty, Justin Lockhart, Rose and Amanda Cortez enters the ring to dispose of Casey in a similar manner. This partnership ends prematurely as Rose and Amanda take out Justin and Jayson with chair shots to the back.

Francine: I knew it. I KNEW that street rat couldn’t be trusted!

Casey broke free from her bonds and she immediately went on the rampage. Amanda swung towards Casey with her steel chair, but she found her chair swatted away with a Big Boot, smacking the chair back into her face. Casey arms herself with Amanda’s chair and hammers the chair onto the incoming Rose’s skull with enough force that the steel warps around her skull upon impact.

A weary Drake and Rex stagger back into the ring with Drake ready to take the spoils. Rex stepped in front of Drake, insisting to take this moment for himself.

The Carter: Uh oh, looks like more trouble in paradise! Is Rex going to stab Drake in the back too?

Ry Drake looks mortified until Amanda Cortez closes with the Fade to Black (The Gore) after playing possum. Rex stepped in-between them to take the blow and responds with a Gutwrench Powerbomb. The Goddess made her own counter in the form of a Hurracanrana whip to throw Rex onto the second rope. Amanda follows suit with the 187 (619). She then launched herself back into the ring via a springboard variation of a Rear Naked Choke onto the waking Rex. Rex drops down to all fours, seemingly fading to the Goddess’ hold. Instead, Rex’s true intentions were that he allowed Ry Drake to remove Amanda properly with the Laid Out (Strong Right Kick to the Head). Ry Drake then covers Amanda.

ONE…

TWO…

TH---WAIT!!!

Casey surprises everyone with a Release Butterfly Suplex to remove the Wraith from on top of the Goddess before covering Amanda herself.

ONE…

TWO…

THR--NO!!!

Rose breaks the second near-fall with Fame-Asser on Casey to save her Goddess. Rose went for a Shining Wizard to waking Queen of Submission, only to receive a Jacknife Powerbomb with Casey dropping her right on top of Amanda.

Francine: It’s not like they aren’t used to be being in that position anyway…

The Queen of Submission wasn’t able to get the cover as she was struck from behind by a Missile Dropkick from Jayson Heagerty. The blow sent Casey reeling straight into the pending Spinebuster that slams her into the corner by Justin Lockhart. Justin Lockhart moves out of the way as Rex charges right into the corner, smashing into Casey with a Big Body Splash to sandwich her into the corner like a pancake. Lockhart showed his thanks to the Mountain for disposing of Casey with a Tiger Suplex. Rex stood back up on jelly legs as Jayson and Justin performed a Double Snapmare Driver on the Mountain. Justin wasn’t shy from taking this victory for his own as he ended his partnership with Jayson with the Lock Crusher (Miz’s Skull Crushing Finale). Justin found victory snatched from his grasp as Drake connects with the Greatest Damn Elbow (Phenomenal Forearm) from out of nowhere to prevent Lockhart from making the pin on his downed teammates. The Wraith took victory into his own hands.

ONE…

TWO…

THRE---NO!!!

Amanda Cortez weakly threw herself across the ring to break the pin. Drake backhanded the Goddess away only to take out all of his aggression on her with the Brutality (Barrage of strikes with knees, headbutts, and punches). Amanda endured this assault and staggered back to her feet, only to receive the Greatest Damn Elbow (Phenomenal Forearm) from Drake. The Wraith knew that he could have ended this here with everyone else out of it and scattered around the ring, but he wanted to dispose of Amanda getting in his way for good. Drake stacked up two steel chairs and laid Amanda’s head on top of them before taking his throne on the top rope.

Prof. X: Someone needs to end this, this is overkill!
Francine: Unfortunately, she along with everyone in this match knew what they were getting themselves into when they signed up for this match.
The Carter: Oh god, I can’t watch…

Ry Drake blew a kiss to Amanda in a condescending manner before leaping down from the top rope with the Assassination (Jumping Curb Stomp). That was the plan but the Wraith found himself being thrown off the top rope as the Enforcers’ G-Money Briggs had other plans. Dequan Wallace dragged Amanda off the stacked chairs and assisted G-Money with the Pulverizer (Steinerizer/Steiner Brothers’ Aided Diving Bulldog), dropping the Wraith directly on top of the stacked chairs. They tossed Amanda’s body over Drake and stood watch as the referee made the pin.

ONE…

TWO…

THREE!!!



Zoey Valentine: “Your winner and NEW GZWA World Heavyweight Champion, Amanda Cortez!”

Prof. X: There you have it, folks. Hell has frozen over and the Machine has the World Heavyweight Championship within their grasp once more as the Enforcers have ensured that Amanda Cortez has ended the reign of Ry Drake!
Francine: What in sweet hell is going on in this place...
The Carter: Yes, we've finally got a real goddess as our World Heavyweight Champion!
Francine: I think you need to get your glasses checked, Carter.
The Carter: But I don't wear glasses.
Francine: Even more reason to get your eyes checked...

The lights in the arena suddenly go out after the match is over causing confusion throughout the arena while the crew at ringside are scattering to find out what is happening while the Enforcers with the opposition stand in the ring waiting for the lights to turn back on when everywhere except the entrance ramp now has a red light shining down upon them causing everyone to be more confused especially those that are in the ring. Smoke slowly begins to cover the entrance ramp then a mysterious cloaked figure walks out to the entrance way pushing a gurney with what looks like a body bag as he pushes it out to the top of the entrance ramp where the foot of the gurney is pointing towards the ring as the mysterious figure turns away and walks back through the curtain.

A voice is overhead that echoes throughout the arena.

“Since the day that the doors first opened to this company, GZWA has been haunted by so-called ‘deadmen’ and pretenders… These men calling themselves monsters. I have watched the machinations of an entitled few manipulate and attempt to control these creatures of the night and call themselves the masters of their ungodly power. The truth of the matter is that tonight is the end of those lies and pretenders as I… no, WE shall remind you all of the one and true monster with the destructive force that makes even the heavens tremble with fear in his presence...”



A giggle is heard as a woman steps out onto the stage holding a microphone before continuing, “Wait, why should we merely remind you when my patient -- no, my monster makes house calls?”

The individual in the body bag suddenly sits up and tears it open to reveal that the Hardcore Monster himself - Carnage - is back which causes everyone in the arena to freak out and everyone in the ring to be worried as he jumps off the gurney then proceeds to throw it off of the entrance stage before focusing his eyes on everyone in the ring as we see the hatred in his eyes while he storms down to the ring.


Carnage is assaulted by the Enforcers, Jayson Heagerty, Justin Lockhart, Casey Cortez, and Rex Terrell as they pummel him with strikes down to his knees. The Hardcore Monster stood up and powers out, throwing them off back in an explosive show of force. Jayson and Justin are floored with a Double Clothesline by the Hardcore Monster. Casey and Rex hammer Carnage from behind with steel chairs, but the Hardcore Monster is completely unfettered by the blow. He smashes their heads together in a Double Headbutt before Double Chokeslamming them both to the mat with authority. The Enforcers charged in with the Lose/Lose Situation (Cade & Murdoch’s Sweet & Sour), only for Carnage to back elbow Dequan to stop him in his tracks while firmly Headbutting G-Money Briggs over the bridge of his nose. Carnage proceeded to Buckle Bomb (Running Release Powerbomb) Dequan Wallace into G-Money Briggs to send both Enforcers into the corner. The Hardcore Monster impacts into the Enforcers like a runaway freight train with a Stinger Splash into both men. One would think that would be enough, but no, Carnage yanks Dequan back to his feet for a Decapitation Lariat before performing the Total Annihilation (Spinning Sitout Powerbomb) to G-Money.

With the bodies scattered in and out of the ring, Carnage picks up the discarded World Heavyweight Championship. He looked at it long and hard before raising it high above his head as tonight’s event comes to an end.
