Femme Fatale Wrestling
Presents
FFW Unity – An ESPN Special Event
Live from the Air Canada Centre in Toronto, Ontario, Canada!
July 8, 2013

The FFW logo flashes across the screen as the ESPN logo appears in the bottom corner. We then cut to a highlight package of the various tag teams throughout FFW’s history with the past champions and teams shown in black and white till the picture immediately flashes to color where we see all of FFW’s current tag teams, including all the teams competing tonight. The pictures fade out as we hear “Move Along” by the All-American Rejects blaring through the PA system as the thousands in attendance roar in enthusiasm. The FFW flag drops to hang over the ring, a gray mat with cyan ropes. As the music fades out, we see Mark Horton step out onto the ramp.

Mark: Toronto, Ontario, Canada....

A cheap pop follows that as he grins.

Mark: Welcome to a night dedicated to one of the oldest institutions in the history of our business! Welcome to a night where the most thriving tag team division in the game today is found! Welcome...to FFW UNITY!!

Another roar from the crowd as the camera shows Wolf Ramsey and Mai Hotaru sitting at the broadcast booth briefly before Mark continues.

Mark: Tonight many of the tag teams in this company are going to show you why tag team wrestling is still alive and well in this business! But before we get to all that, I’d like to introduce a special guest at this time. She knows more than a little something about what makes a successful tag team......KATHERINE STRYFE!

“Broken Dreams” begins to play over the PA system as Katherine Stryfe walks out onto the ramp and smiles at Mark. The fans give her a mixed reaction and she could only nod her head at this, as she was used to such things from them.

Katherine: Thank you for having me out here tonight, Mark. You are right when you say I know a thing or two about tag team wrestling; from The Eternal Flame to Nightmare, Inc; I’ve had great success in the tag team ranks in my career.

The crowd pops a bit at the Nightmare, Inc drop and Katherine could only chuckle at this and gives them a quick ‘bang’ motion with her fingers in tribute to the old team’s signature taunt.

Mark: Kat, you were invited here tonight to join me for a reason. While your tag team history is nothing if not impressive, tonight I have been tasked with a special task. Actually tasked by the person who is responsible for this. And that person is Cody Kincaid.

Cody steps out onto the ramp as well, receiving a very warm reaction from the crowd as he steps off to on side to watch. Katherine looked at Cody with a bit of confusion on her face before she turned her attention back to Mark.

Kat: Look, I swear I did not give Pollaski the idea to hack FFW headquarters!

The crowd laughs at this as does Katherine, obviously trying to have a bit of fun at long time tormentor Daniel Pollaski’s expense. She waits for them to calm down before she speaks once more.

Kat: So, why am I here actually, outside my tag team experience of course. You’ll have to forgive me if I’m just a bit confused and maybe a tad worried since apparently this was Cody’s idea.

Mark: Well not only was it Cody’s idea, but...his nomination really. I’ll direct your attention to the video wall for just a moment.

As all eyes look up to the big screen, the image they see greets them.


(Thanks to Sarah!)

Katherine was obviously taken aback by what she had just seen, her hand cupping her mouth in complete shock as a tear started to form and fall from her eye. When she finally was able to calm herself, she turned her head to look at Cody and pointed at him as if asking him if this was legit his idea.

Kat: Well... I’m.... I.... bloody hell, you’ve got me at a loss for words.

As Cody nodded his head, Mark continued.

Mark: Ladies and gentlemen, the newest inductee into the 2013 class of the FFW Hall of Fame.....as nominated by Cody Kincaid....KATHERINE STRYFE!!!!

The crowd is no longer mixed as they all begin to cheer for Katherine, if nothing more for the fact she was being honored for all she had done for FFW; the one thing she had always wanted; to be acknowledged for it. She begins to wipe tears from her eyes as she mouthed ‘thank you’ to Cody first and then mouthed it to the fans and raised her hand up.

Kat: Thank you all so very much. This is an honour and a moment I’ll never forget.

Mark: The night before Unstoppable, Katherine Stryfe will join the elite class already nominated in Isabella Pazzini and Valerie Lamb as they are enshrined in the FFW Hall of Fame! Now Katherine, with that honor stated first and foremost, I have also been given the permission to inform you of what you will be doing at Unstoppable.

Katherine’s eyebrow perked at this as she looked at Mark.

Kat: And what would that be, Mr. Horton? I mean I’m already still recovering from what I’ve just been honoured with here... don’t give me a heart attack.

Mark: Well you could call this a match of women who consider themselves technical specialists really. Just this past Thursday, the woman you will be facing was victorious in her match. And like you, she too has slowly started to win many of the FFW faithful over again. As I was informed by Cody there before we came onto the air, at Unstoppable, you will be going one on one with a woman who is striving to earn a shot at the FFW No Surrender Championship when you face Stephanie Sullivan in Houston!

Katherine looked up into the air and could only nod her head slowly, letting a small audible sigh escape her voice, when she lowered her head again, she nodded it once more.

Kat: Sullivan huh? ASWG collison course at its finest; she wants respect, wants to be taken seriously... we’ll see if she deserves it in Houston.

Mark: She has indeed been on a quest to earn respect. She began that journey at Velocity, but it’s safe to say she has her work cut out for her at Unstoppable as well. Once again, Katherine, welcome to the Hall of Fame and we’ll be seeing you in Houston!

Mark handed off his microphone as Cody shook Katherine’s hand next, raising it for the crowd as Unity went to a commercial break.



Written by Mark

The bell sounds as we head back into the arena where we find Cory Kincaid already standing in the ring, a smile on his face.

Cory: The opening contest for Unity is scheduled for one fall!

An orchestral rap beat begins to play over the arena’s PA and both Aimee and Lightning walk out onto the stage, where they pause and look over the arena before looking at each other and smirking.  They raise their arms in the air and some golden pyro goes off before they make their way to the ring.  They talk strategy as they walk, ignoring the fans on their way to the ring.  Lightning slides under the bottom rope as Aimee climbs up the steps and steps into the ring over the top rope.  Both wrestlers climb turnbuckles and mock the fans with their arms raised before dropping down and talking strategy in their corner once more.

Cory: Introducing first, they have a total combined weight of 336 lbs! This is Lightning...and Aimee Easter. They are......OF POETS & PROPHETS!!

Wolf: And we are kicking off Unity, ladies and gentlemen, with the number one contenders to the Unity Tag Team Championship, Lightning and Aimee Easter. These two women will challenge Bounce & Pounce at Unstoppable, but certainly have their work cut out for them here.

Mai: You call them that, I’ll call them pretty hot and tempting. Not to mention the next team to be the Unity Champions in just under three weeks time at Unstoppable!

WHAT DOESN’T KILL YOU MAKES YOU STRONGER!!!!!!!!!!

The lights in the arena go dark and two spotlights appears on the entrance Curtain, and it’s there where we can see two silhouettes of two women standing there. Whatever doesn’t kill you by Kelly Clarkson begins to blare across the speakerss. All of a sudden Crystal and Jenny emerge through them and the lights in the arena go on. Both women are standing with their backs to the ring, and they are clad in their hoodies. One woman is wearing a pink hoodie with the letter C on it while the other woman is wearing a baby blue hoodie with the letter J on it. They both turn around and expose the nicely written Williams Clan written across their chest. They flick their hoods back and the crowd goes nuts at the sighting of Crystal and Jennifer Williams. They aren’t alone as Todd and Wolf Ramsey accompany them as well. The red carpet is rolled and the photographers line up as they take pictures of the two women. Crystal grins as she steps ahead of Jenny just adoring all the attention she is getting and does her signature split to enter the ring. Jenny sprints towards the ring and slides in. She kips up to her feet. Both of them run to the corner turnbuckle and throw the arms in the air as they do a backflip in unison off of them. They meet in the center of the ring for a passionate hug and wait their opponents.

Cory: And their opponents, they have a total combined weight of 247 lbs! They are Crystal Hilton...and Jennifer Williams! This is....THE WILLIAMS CLAN!!

Wolf: We haven’t seen the Williams Clan in tag team action on their own of late, but they certainly can use the time considering they will be meeting Fight or Flight in Houston! Plus Jennifer Williams has some history with Lightning, the woman who she both took and lost the FFW Television Championship against already this year.

Mai: No more Titty for Jenny, but she does have an Evolution title shot on the horizon after knocking Eileen Amaro recently. So she’ll live. And if she doesn’t, I could give a crap honestly.

Referee Melinda Davis called for the bell to start the match as Aimee and Crystal stepped out to the apron in their respective corners. Lightning and Jenny stared across the ring at one another before moving to the center and locking up. The pair jockeyed for position as Crystal already had begun clapping her hands to get the fans in Jenny’s corner. Lightning began to push Williams back, but Jenny stopped her and dropped down, using a monkey flip to send Lightning up and over. As the Television Champion went to get back up, Jenny already was and sent the champion back down with a deep armdrag takedown. A second one hit the mark as Lightning went to get up a second time before Jenny dove past her, rolling her up into a small package!

ONE!!!!

T-NOOOOOOOOO!!!!

Lightning kicked out before the two as Jenny hopped to her feet. Grabbing her arm, she fired her in for the ride. Lightning hit the far side as Jenny bounced off the near side ropes into a springboard into a shoulder block that took the champion down. The fans were solidly in Jenny’s favor as she pulled Lightning up into a side headlock.

Mai: Jenny really thought she was going to pin Lightning like that? That quickly? All the Code Red must have caused more than liver damage.

Wolf: What you are seeing is Jenny asserting control here, and trying to get into Lightning’s head. Now...she’s just holding it actually.

Jenny apparently had quite the grip locked in as Lightning tried to shove her off unsuccessfully more than once. The champion then began to fire shots into her lower back one after another, finally getting the grip loosened enough to shove her off. Jenny took off towards the ropes in a burst of speed and went for a clothesline off the rebound. But Lightning thought better of it and caught her with a drop toe hold that sent her face first into the mat. The champion held her face and chest down on the canvas before leaping up and driving her knee into Jenny’s back repeatedly, much to the chagrin on the fans. Pulling her up from behind into a rear waistlock, Lightning took her right back down with a belly to back suplex followed through by a second one before she rolled her over and went for a cover.

ONE!!!

TWOOO-NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Wolf: I think that was a little bit of payback by Lightning with that early cover. She might have taken some offense to Jenny thinking she was already done that soon.

Mai: I don’t blame her, Beardsley. Now it’s time for FFW’s human suplex machine to go to work.

Lightning got back to her feet, pulling Jenny up and using a backbreaker across her knees before she dragged her across to her own corner and tagged in her partner. Aimee stepped through and pulled her up before shoving her back into the corner, a pair of back elbows to the side of the head found the mark before she sat her on the top turnbuckle and scooped her up in a gorilla press, launching her out and to the mat with a thud! Aimee moved towards her, a smirk on her face as she took Jenny’s hand and waved it towards her corner to Crystal. Hilton resumed clapping her hands over her head as the fans continued to cheer on Williams. Aimee pulled her back up and drove a knee into her abdomen, doubling her over before Easter grabbed her arms, looking for a double underhook DDT. But Jenny reversed it with a back body drop that sent Aimee up and over to the mat. She quickly mounted her and began to fire away with straight right hands but Easter managed to shake her off after covering her head with both of her arms. Williams quickly got to her feet and took off towards the ropes, leaving her feet before Easter ducked the leap frog. As she hit the far side, Crystal tapped her on the back, which the referee counted as a tag. Aimee rose back up, with Jenny grabbing onto the ropes. And as she came after the former TV Champion, Jenny grabbed the top rope and slingshotted Crystal into the ring with a huge clothesline over the top rope that drew the crowd to their feet!

Wolf: Aimee Easter didn’t see the tag there, and she certainly paid the price! The Williams Clan are working very well here tonight and now Crystal is in!

Mai: We’ve now had all four people into this match, and Crystal hasn’t wasted any time by getting into the aerial stuff. I’ve never noticed that enough she’s absolutely annoying as hell, she’s.....got a nice ass! Or the scientific term....badonkadonk, as it were.

Crystal watched as Aimee started to get up, catching her with a dropkick to the chest that staggered her backwards before Hilton whipped her in hard to the corner. Easter crashed back first as Hilton took off towards her and utilized a handspring into a back elbow that caught her flush on the jaw. As Aimee staggered out of the corner, Hilton jumped onto the middle turnbuckle and came off into a victory roll, and going for a pin on Easter!

ONE!!!

TWOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

Easter got her shoulder up in time, and immediately Crystal was back on the move again and took off towards the ropes. Aimee rolled back to her feet, and ducked under a clothesline before grabbing Crystal as she passed and locking in a full nelson. Hilton jerked her arms in an attempt to get free, but Aimee countered it into a full nelson slam that drove Crystal into the mat with a thud.

Wolf: Aimee was having trouble keeping Crystal Hilton in her sights there for a moment, but that full nelson slam will certainly slow her down.

Mai: All Aimee has to do is just get her hands on you. If she can do that, it doesn’t bode well for you. And as usually happens with spotmonkeys, Crystal got caught.

Aimee took a moment to gather herself, pulling Crystal up and hoisting her onto her shoulder. And with four steps into a run, she drove her into the mat with a running powerslam! She quickly hooked her leg for a cover as Davis dropped down to the mat.

ONE!!!

TWOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

TH-NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

Crystal kicked out after the two, and Aimee grabbed her feet to step through and into a Boston crab. With her feet locked tightly, Aimee was practically sitting on Crystal’s lower back, causing the star to shout in pain.

Wolf: And this is a very bad place to be for Crystal Hilton. With her legs bent the way they are, the stress on her lower back must be intense. Aimee’s execution of this hold is quite effective.

Mai: It’s a Boston crab, and yes she is applying it very well. But don’t make it sound like she can’t do any better. Your face makes my butt clench.....did I ever tell you that?

Easter kept the pressure applied as she leaned back into the thold. Jenny began to stomp her foot in the corner, trying to rally the fans as they began to get louder in her team’s favor. Hilton tried to reach for the ropes, but Aimee was position in such a way that she couldn’t reach any near ropes. She then began trying to pull her feet out from under her, but that was also to no avail as she clutched her hands to her head in agony. Unable to watch any further, Jenny hopped up to the top rope. And as Davis asked Crystal if she wanted to quit, Williams launched herself with a missile dropkick off the top into Aimee’s back that sent her face first into the corner. This brought the crowd to their feet as Jenny unloaded with forearm shots to the back of Easter’s head as Davis began to pull her off and try to get her back into the corner. Easter sat on her knees facing the corner as she tried to get her wits about her. And as the referee continued to try to eject Jenny, LIghtning stepped in and dragged Crystal towards her corner. She pulled her up and rammed her back first into it before using the tag rope and wrapping it around her neck to choke her out. This served only to anger Jenny more as she tried to go after her as Davis was physically having to restrain her.

Wolf: Jennifer Williams must get in control of herself or the referee needs to at least turn around, as there is a mugging going on behind her.

Mai: Beautiful, isn’t it? A little strangulation only heightens the pleasure, you see. Would you like me to show you? I can strangle you right now, and my pleasure will increase dramatically as a result.

Aimee got to her feet and clapped her hands over her head before rolling out to the floor. Lightning released the choke as Jenny finally got out of the ring. Davis signaled that there had been a tag made as Lightning used a snapmare to bring Crystal out of the corner to the mat. She quickly rolled her over, going for a pin.

ONE!!!!

TWOOOOOOOO!!!!!

TH-NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Rising back to her feet, she shook her head. And as she leaned down to grab her, Crystal rolled her up by surprise into a small package!

ONE!!!!

TWOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

THR-NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

Lightning kicked out before the three, breaking the small package at the same time. A look of annoyance on her face, she rolled on top of Hilton and began firing elbow strikes to her head in retaliation.

Wolf: I think it’s safe to say Lightning has a strong dislike of rollups after what we saw at Velocity.

Mai: I think she just has a strong dislike of cocky bitches, much unlike the sweet and demure partner she has over there.

Lightning gets back to her feet, a smile on her face as she pulls Crystal up and gives the signal for her implant DDT. Pulling her to her feet, she hooks her head as the fans rain boos down upon the Television Champion.

As Lightning went for the impaler, Crystal shoved her off. As Lightning rebounds off the ropes, she gets caught with a facebuster before Crystal headed for the corner. The fans came to their feet as Aimee looked to be stepping into the ring. Before she did though, Jenny had come around the corner and snagged her briefcase. This drew Easter down to the floor to go after Jenny before Crystal launched herself into the 630 senton!

Wolf: Lights, Camera, Action!! Hilton hit the corkscrew!!

Crystal quickly hooked Lightning’s leg as Aimee turned back to see the pin. Jenny tossed the briefcase, and as Davis dropped to make the count, she grabbed Aimee’s feet to stop her!

ONE!!

TWOOOOOOOO!!!

THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!

Davis called for the bell as Jenny jerked Aimee out and slid into the ring, helping Crystal to her feet. The referee raised both their hands.

Cory: The winners of the match.....THE WILLIAMS CLAN!!!

Mai: Jenny tried to steal Aimee’s briefcase! Police!! Police!! Arrest her!!

Wolf: And with Fight or Flight waiting for them at Unstoppable, the Williams Clan have ended the winning streak of Lightning and Aimee! And have just shot themselves way up towards the top of tag title contention! Very well done, and would you stop bellowing for the police?!

Crystal and Jenny hugged with smiles on their faces as the fans cheered loudly before Unity head to commercial.


Those Crazy Whitmore Girls

We cut to the backstage area where we are in the locker room of Pure Adrenaline. It is there where we are able to see Kate Steele putting on her fishnet over her sports bra as she looks over to Misty Whitmore.

Kate: So are you ready for tonight Misty?! You ready to trust me tonight?

Misty is adjusting her trunks and smiles.

Misty: Yeah, I’m ready. Let’s give this loud as hell TORONTO crowd the best match of the night. 

Kate: Well it is YOUR hometown. So we might as well do what we do best. I know we haven’t seen eye to eye as of lately but tongiht we put everything to the side and show everyone we are still the same team that we were since day one. Not only are we partners but we are also best friends. So we will be there for each other as such.

Misty: Exactly. 

The teen giggled, pulling up her knee pads next. 

Misty: You’ve never let me down in the ring Kate, tonight will be no different.

Before anyone can say anything else there is a knock at the door. Kate goes to open the door and as she opens it standing in the doorway is none other than Ashley Whitmore. She smirks as she pushes Kate out of the way as she walks into the room.

Ashley: If you would excuse me. I would like some alone time with my sister.

Kate just growls as she walks out of the room leaving just Ashley and Misty alone in the room by themselves.

Ashley: Hello there Misty. Long time no see. Did you miss me?

Misty: That was rude, Ash....

Misty sighed, running a hand through her hair. 

Misty: And yeah I kinda did, you’ve been in Mexico or something since Nic beat you, right?

Ashley: Actually I have been in Mexico all this time. Working on the things where I went wrong, and I just figured what better place to return back to FFW Television than my hometown of Toronto Ontario Canada. Not only that but I just had to see my baby sister wrestling for myself. It looks like you are in quite the situation. You get to team up with a woman that supports the other team. I told you this Steele girl wasn’t too good for you, and now look.it’s you and her versus a team THAT SHE MANAGES.... Why do you put up with this?!

Misty scowled at Ashley.

Misty: Because she’s my friend, Ash. And despite how some things look she’s still my tag partner and still my best friend. And you can’t say anything about not being good, don’t think anyone has forgotten what you did to Nicole. I trust Kate, I really do...can’t exactly say the same for you now can I? You attacked Kate after I asked you not to, you shirk the blame for your actions to everyone else. I love you Ash, but for crying out loud don’t come here trying to start shit right before I go the damn ring!

Ashley: Hey I only call it like I see it and the facts speak for themselves. Just pay attention to how she treated you on Future Shock. Trying to force you to be a Frosted Steele fan. Constantly trying to shove endless merchandise your way... What kind of friend is that Misty? She is bringing you down and if I was you I would break away from her unless you want to go spiraling downwards with her. You are better than that Misty. I am not telling you this just because you are my sister. I am telling you this because I love you and I want to look out for you. I don’t want you to get hurt.

Misty: Get hurt? YOU ALMOST CRIPPLED YOUR OWN SISTER!  Where was this heart to heart talk then, huh?! I get it, ok. Everyone’s on my case about this....

Misty growls and takes a step back covering her face with her hands and letting out a frustrated scream.  The teen slowly turns back to Ashley, taking in a deep breath and letting it out slowly.

Misty: You’re concerned, and I’m thankful ok. Just let me worry about my match. I don’t need all this in my head just before I go out there. But here’s the key Ash. You’re not me, you’re NOTHING like me. I respect your opinion, but it’s my life and Kate is my friend. I made a promise to stick by her side and I’m keeping it. 

Ashley: Whatever you say Misty... Just watch out for her... I knew she was trouble the moment she walked in... Anyway I will see you later. I am going to catch up with some friends and family.

She says waving to Misty as she exits the door walking past Kate who walks back in.

Kate: Everything alright? What the hell did she want?

Misty shrugged and sat down on the bench, tightening up her kickpads. 

Misty: Same shit different pile.  You ready, hon?

Kate: Let’s go out there and do it... I promise I will have your back... Time to unleash a dosage of Pure Adrenaline right?

Misty grins.

Misty: Damn right.


Hot Tea

The next image we see as Unity continues is that of Robby Reynolds as he stands in front of a monitor at the Unity backstage interview position.

Robby: Before I welcome my guests at this time, I’d like to take you back to this past Thursday night on the July 4th edition of Velocity. Let’s take a look.

He turns back to the monitor as the footage begins to play.

~ ~ ~

Laura waved for Jem to come over, who reluctantly did so when she was offered the cup she had just poured. Jem shook her head and walked away, causing Laura to look a little offended. Angela rose to her feet, heading for the corner as Rebecka had gotten up as well. Hinchcliffe moved to the turnbuckle as Laura offered the cup up to her. Angela shook her head and turned back to catch a clothesline into the corner from Rebecka. Hinchcliffe’s foot caught the teapot accidentally and sent it to the floor, spilling all over the mat as the steam rose off the liquid. Laura looked down with a shocked expression, climbing up onto the apron and giving Angela the riot act. Hinchcliffe caught Rebecka with a short knee as she tried for a shoulder block, ignoring Laura who was not happy. Christian moved around to that corner, trying to tell Laura to get down!

Misty: See! SEE!! This is why you don’t do this stuff...ugh I can’t wait to send my knee into her face, I don’t care if she’s Kate’s cousin. This is ridiculous! At the same time it looks like Angela is ignoring Laura, but I doubt Rebecka will be so lucky.

Mark: Laura Steele is causing all kinds of problems out here, Kincaid’s trying to get her to leave again, but it’s not working. She must like her tea scalding hot, the mat’s still steaming over in that corner where it spilled!

Angela used a go-behind to grab Rebecka’s waist, looking for a suplex.

Still more than a little annoyed about the tea pot, Laura watched as Rebecka reached down to grab Angela’s feet only for Laura to throw the scalding hot tea into Angela’s face, causing referee Robert Valero to call for the bell. Rebecka stood back up as Angela fell to the mat, holding her face in obvious pain.

Misty: WHAT THE HELL?! Laura just splashed that scalding hot tea in Angela’s face!!

Mark: Valero’s called for the bell, what’s the decision?

Cory: The referee has disqualified Rebecka Hate, therefore your winner...ANGELA HINCHCLIFFE!!

Rebecka’s face told the tale as she looked thunderous towards her partner as Laura explained how Angela kicked over the teapot.

Mark: That’s a first for me. I’ve never seen anything like that happen! Laura got her own partner disqualified, and Hate didn’t even do anything to deserve it!

Misty: The match was still going strong. Rebecka seems none too pleased and I don’t blame her, she was still in this and Laura pretty much screwed her out of it.

Jem slid into the ring to check on her partner as one of the medical trainers headed towards the ring too. Laura got shoved off the apron by her partner as Rebecka looked about to go out after her when Kate came down to the ring to mediate the best she could. Christian slid into the ring and tried to calm Rebecka down.

~ ~ ~

As we come back from the footage, we see Robby is joined by both members of NHB, Angela Hinchcliffe and Jem Michaels.

Robby: Ladies, thank you for your time tonight. I’m sure that footage was no less fun to watch than it was to experience. Angela, how are you feeling?

Angela licks her lips as she considers her words.

Angela: I’m feeling...good Robby. It wasn’t a fun experience, not by any stretch of the imagination. I don’t know what she did while she was making that tea but it must be the same thing they do with gravy at KFC. It’s no wonder she brought it out to ring in a ceramic teapot otherwise it would probably have melted through the bottom of a metal one. But it’s not the worst injury I’ve ever suffered and I’m good to go again tonight.

Jem: I wouldn’t talk about it too much Robby, she’s trying not to think about it too much right now. If she does then she gets a little bit steamed. A little hot under the collar. You don’t want her to boil over right? But she just has to keep a lid on it for tonight because after that we can stoke the flames a little bit and let her loose at Unstoppable to show Laura what happens when you throw a drink in a girls face.

Robby nods in agreement.

Robby: I was curious to get both of your reactions on that, especially in light of the fact Laura claims to be one of your team’s biggest fans. And even more intriguing is the fact that even her own partner doesn’t seem happy with her, likely because she got her disqualified. But what do you make of the situation?

Jem: I’m not sure it’s so much that Laura got Rebecka disqualified that’s the problem. It’s one of those things that happens from time to time. I know we’ve occasionally cost each other a match, we forgive, we forget, we move on. I think it’s maybe a little more to do with Laura’s attitude.

Angela nods.

Angela: Just listen to Rebecka on Twitter and it seems from what she says that Laura maybe isn’t bothered about putting in the effort to improve and get better. Rebecka is pretty much carrying her at the moment and Laura doesn’t just seem happy for that happen, she seems to revel in it. What other possible explanation could there be for her being more interested in singing and brewing a cuppa? That and if you watch some of the videos they’ve released, Laura seems to be a lot more interested in getting under her partners skin. That’s never a good thing.

Jem: If she’s our fan, then she has a pretty funny way of showing it. How many other self-professed number one fans have thrown scalding hot tea into their idols face? Sure there have been a couple of dangerous whackjob stalkers...but to do what she did in the manner she did? Number one fan or not, we’ll be happy to break her in half. Though if she lucky we’ll get her a specially autographed tea set or something.

Robby: I know that tag team encounter at Unstoppable is definitely....brewing. Ahem. Anyway, tonight you will make your tag team debut officially here in FFW on its Unity special. Your opponents are two women who recently competed for the Unity Tag Team Championship, but came up a hair short. Your thoughts as you prepare to meet Anger Management?

Angela looks at Jem.

Angela: Great. Are you happy now that you’ve got him started on the puns?

She looks back at Robby

Angela: Brewing? Really? I thought you were better than that, Robby. Anyway, Anger Management. The last contenders to the Unity titles, a team that had been rolling - an almost irresistible force before they ran into Bounce & Pounce and Penny bounced back with a pretty big win over Undine in a tables match. We know they won’t want to lose to a team making a debut, we know they are going to want to start building momentum again to get a second shot at the titles. This is a big opportunity for us. If we can win tonight then it’s a pretty big stride forward.

Jem: And for all of those accomplishments and wins they’ve racked up, I’m going to be honest and say that we really aren’t impressed by them as a team too much. Sure they talk a big fight, they want you all to believe in the hype they are trying to generate. But the truth is, they’re all brute force and not a lot else. Remember what they said about themselves before they challenged for the titles Robby? They said they were two Mack Trucks barrelling down the highway and that Bounce & Pounce were two Ford Pinto’s just sitting there waiting to get nudged out of the way. Sure, Mack trucks are hard to stop when they build up momentum, but you can use that to your advantage. You can duck and dive out of the way and watch as all that momentum causes them to smack into a brick wall and then they really aren’t good for anything.

Angela: And besides if they want to make out they’re eighteen wheelers, well I’m about in the same class. I’m taller than both of them and my weight is straight in the middle. They went to go for a head on collision with me, let them come straight at me because I’ll do as much damage to them as they’ll do to me.

Robby: Well ladies, we won’t have to wait much longer. Because when we come back, Anger Management will square off with NHB here at Unity! We’ll be back!

Unity then heads to commercial.

Cory: The following is a tag match for one fall...!

As “The Catalyst” by Linkin Park begins to play over the PA system, the crowd comes to life as April and Penny appear on the entrance ramp, they look out at the crowd before running down the ramp, slapping hands with the fans on the way down. The two slide into the ring and begin to shake the ropes like wild women before they look out into the crowd and Penny raises her arm up and down as April does the same with both of hers and the crowd starts chanting out “Strong Girl Style” and ‘Choo-Choo”. The pair finally meet in the center of the ring before dropping down to one knee and interlocking their arms together and pointing at their SGS taped fists. The two go to their corner and begin to stretch as they wait for the bell to ring.

Cory: Introducing first at a combined weight of 375 pounds... This is APRIL EVANS and “THE PAIN TRAIN” PENNY BUCHANAN... This... Is... AAANNNGGGEEERRR MMAAANNNAAGGEEMMMENNT! ...And their opponents...!

“Deuce” by Kiss begins to play, Jem runs out of the back and onto the stage area, sprinting across to the far side and bouncing on the balls of her feet as she encourages the crowd to get a little louder. Charging across to the other side of the stage, she once more cheerleaders before heading back to the middle of the stage. Meeting her partner there the two girls double high five and turn it into a hug that breaks as Jem charges down to the ring, sliding underneath the bottom rope. Angela follows her down the ramp, slapping hands with fans. Jem pops up to her feet and makes a tour of the corners, climbing to the middle turnbuckle and throwing her hands into the air to get a cheer from the crowd before moving onto the next one. As Angela reaches the ring she walks hops up onto the apron and raises one clenched fist in the air before she enters the ring and walks to the NHB corner to await the start of the match.

Cory: Weighing in tonight at 306 pounds, this is JEM MICHAELS and ANGELA HINCHCLIFFE... This... Is... NNNOOO! HHHOOOLLLDDINNGG! BBBAAACCKKK!

Jem silently begins to hop around back and forth before pointing to April Evans and motioning her that she wants the two of them to start off. Evans points at herself and is pretty much like, wha... Me? Before she motions to Penny that she’ll happily take this one. Jem motions Evans forward and yet Evans stands her ground and motions for Michaels to come to her. As Davis motions for the bell to ring, the two women are still standing their ground, trying to make the other start the offense.

...Penny Buchanan and Angela Hinchliffe yell at their tag partners in unison, as if reminding them to get on with it. Evans and Michaels look at their tag partners, look back at each other then just start it up early. Jemima goes for the foundation of Evans with a few quick kicks to the back of April’s thigh. She kicks at it again and again, unleashing a wild flurry of kicks and ducking her head every time Evans takes a swing on her.

Wolf: Starting with an early blur of kicks from Jem Michaels, Anger Management coming off a stinging loss as a team and looking to avenge that tonight. Evans though, cocking her arm and looking to tag Jem in the head.

Mai: From what I understand all of these women are not lightweight drinkers, so no drunken seduction for those fans wondering out there.

Wolf: ...That doesn’t even have anything to do with the match, Ms. Hotaru.

Jem kicks back, does a little shuffle-shuffle motion, bounces off the ropes and ducks under one of April’s swings, then ducks under another one of April’s hard hits. She keeps ducking and dodging so quickly that she’s before long a lavender and lemon yellow blur that keeps pinballing all around Evans. One-half of Strong Girl Style’s Gurus stops herself from taking another swing and hunches down and a short spin as though she were Link from the Zelda franchise. Jem has to duck down and arch herself over while trying to stop, bending over backwards! Evans takes this opportunity to drop boot into the abdomen of Michaels before going for a quick cover!

ONE!

KICKOUT!

Wolf: Both Jem and April being very creative with their offense tonight. It almost gives me the feeling of an indies match. 

Mai: Ugh. Nothing more do I hate than indie darlings. Ooh look at me, I can do brainbusters and Death Valley Drivers five at a time! I brawled in the back of bars and have funny stories you should watch on youtube! I wrestle in low-light conditioning but my fans love me for it!

Jem kicks out in the first pin of the night as April grabs her by neck and leg before tossing her forward and up on Evans’ shoulders in a fireman’s carry position. She attempts to flip Jem over on her shoulders as if to launch her in a Death Valley Driver before Jem reverses it into a triple rotation headscissors, but April stops her and holds her up into a powerbomb position... Before Jem pops off of Evan’s shoulders like a slinkie on a stair step before landing in front of her... Then both women stop and yell at the other to come and get them... Which leads to an exasperated sigh by Angela, a light clap by Penny, and the cheers of the Toronto crowd. Jem suddenly runs at April and attempts to go for a Monkey Flip from standing position but April shoves her off. Michaels does a backflip, runs at April again and looks like it’s almost a Monkey Flip tricked into a crazy roll up!

ONE!

TWO!

KICKOUT!

While the two women wrestle, in their corners Penny and Angela are giving each other a look, sizing the other up, considering both women are the larger members of their members of their team. Both women let out a whistle to their tag partners before staring at each other from opposite corners. April and Jem glance at one another before backing up slowly and raising their hands.

Double tags in as Referee Davis motions it all legal.

Wolf: An interesting development here, Angela and The Pain Train wanting to have a test of strength its looking like. 

Mai: Who’s on bottom?

Penny slowly raises her arm warily and Angela follows suit as both women slowly clench their hands into the other’s, before both women begin to push forward. At first it looks like Hinchcliffe has the upper hand as the Pain Train slowly drives her heels down with a grin that slowly grows wider as Angela continues to try her best to push before The Pain Train slowly pushing her back into the corner before catching her with a headbutt and a chop the chest. Angela lays back as The Pain Train and April on the apron put a single finger to their lips and shush before clapping Angela across the chest with a loud echoing sound, before doing it again... It almost looks like she’s gonna hit it for a third time...

...Before Hinchcliffe explodes out of the corner with a massive T-Bone Suplex that causes the ring ropes to shake and bounce slightly. She kips up to her feet and rubs her chest before forcing Penny into a sitting sleeper. Buchanan shoots her elbow backward again and again, catching Angela in the face a few times but never getting her off. Buchanan’s arm goes into overdrive but Hinchcliffe wraps her legs around Buchanan’s waist to hold on just that much tighter as the Pain Train begins to get sleepy... Very, very sleepy. One eyelid slowly wider than the other before both begin to slowly close and shut down completely. Davis grabs Penny’s wrist with both hands and drops it.

ONE!

The ref once again lifts Penny’s wrist and drops it, again The Pain Train seemingly out of steam. Angela begins nodding rapidly, almost excited at the prospect!

TWO!

Wolf: This could be it... The Pain Train could be out of gas here ladies and gentlemen! That sleeper is clenched on tight!

THRE--!

Penny’s fist balled up and her eyes snapped open. Both her arms extended and punched the mat before The Pain Train slowly rises to her feet, red as a beet in the face before she lets out a huge grasp and throws one arm up before dropping down on the mat and hitting the also large Hinchcliffe with a piggyback stunner, both women down on the mat laying on their back. The crowd begins to beat and cheer as Penny slowly begins to inch over to Hinchcliffe before throwing an arm over her chest...

ONE!

TWO!

KICKOUT!

And Penny rolls over besides Angela before turning her head to her corner. Both women begin to slowly drag themselves over to their opposite corners, neither woman turned to watching each other but focused more to the point on what is in front of them, namely their tag partners. At the very same time April and Jem get tagged in but Evans rushes, Jem launches herself on the ropes for a springboard dropkick... She catches April in a headscissors, then another one, then a Lou Thesz press, before suddenly leaping forward and dropping her back into the ribs of Evans with a beautiful standing senton!

Wolf: A very favored move of Ms. Michaels that stylistic standing senton! Perfect form! Can this be enough to put April away!? 

Mai: Davis in position!

ONE!

TWO!

KICKOUT! 

Jem looks like she can’t accept it, grabs April’s ankles and hops to extend a bridge over her into the pin!

ONE!

TWO!

KICKOUT!

April slowly raises herself up, arms wrapped up around Jem’s waist as she struggles, held upside down by Evans who gets swung upward by Evans’ strength and hits her with a turnbuckle powerbomb. Jem lays in the corner with a look of agony on her face but the second she comes out of it, she nearly takes an April Smash Bicycle Kick but escapes from the smash while sticking her tongue out at April. April runs at her and bounces off the ropes, making a blind tag to the Pain Train before getting irish-whipped by Jem. Unfortunately Michaels never sees it coming as she get caught between a bicycle kick and a spear! The more lithe of the team gets twisted around into a smash up and gets laid out, sprawl eagled. Angela goes to break up the pin but her and April go through the ropes as Penny makes the pin!

ONE!

TWO!

THREE!

Wolf: BETWEEN A ROCK AND A HARD PLACE! Jem got put through a car accident there!

Mai: Maybe her tag partner will let me show Jem some... Tender, tender care.

Cory: And the winners of this match... AAANNNGGGEEERRR MMAAANNNAAGGEEMMMENNT! 

The ref raises the arms of both women before we cut to the back, the last image being April and Penny as Angela rolls Jem out and helps her stand up.


So It Will End...

The broadcast heads to the back where we see the familiar “Marx Out” set where we find Allison Marx standing by as the fans watch the video wall.

Allison: Welcome to the Unity edition of Marx Out. Allison here, and about to be joined by a woman who turned around her career just this past Thursday night at Velocity. Please welcome....Desirae Kain!

At this, the camera pans back a bit and a smiling Desirae comes into view.

Desirae: It’s a real pleasure to be here, Allison.

Allison: First of all, thank you for joining me. And congratulations. Last week, a long drought of success finally ended with your first victory since winning the Season of Champions. Your agent, Carson Black who was on commentary, said you had rediscovered your fire. Is that the case?

Desirae happily nods.

Desirae: You could say that I rediscovered my fire. But I think that if you go back and look at some of the matches that I’ve had lately, particularly against Scarlett and Val you’d see that I didn’t really lose my fire. It’s been there all along. I’m not sure why I found myself in the middle of that drought as you put it. Maybe my focus was a little off at times. Maybe it was just bad luck and nothing more. But the fact of the matter is that I’m hitting on all cylinders, I’m coming off of that win on Velocity and I’m looking to build on it.

Allison: Well there is no question you put on some inspiring matches against our current FFW Champion and people like Scarlett. No one sane would argue that. But now with the drought over, you have two matches to come. This Saturday night at Breaking Point, you face a woman who is seemingly the very antithesis of everything you are. And I am referring, of course, to Mika Demidov. She is very much a different challenge than is someone like Michelle Taylor, and I was curious to get your opinions of Miss Demidov.

At this, Desirae seems to sigh as she shakes her head.

Desirae: Mika.........well, Allison, you’re right. Mika Demidov is a different challenge than Michelle Taylor. I know this will probably sound strange, but I can actually manage to respect Michelle and what she’s capable of in that ring more than I can Mika. The fact of the matter is that be it here in FFW or elsewhere, Mika’s made a name for herself by cheating. She’s opportunistic and to be honest she’s a bit delusional. In a lot of ways, I could sit here and compare her to someone like say Casey Atherton, who I’ve been in the ring with many times. The tactics used by the two is very similar, but again. I find myself having more respect for a Casey Atherton than I do Mika.

She shrugs a shoulder.

Desirae: Mika’s a cheater, she’s a loudmouth and she’s pretty much as low of a life form as you can get. She is the opposite of myself, like you said. And on Breaking Point, I plan to keep my good fortunes going as well as show Mika that her shortcuts, cheating and poo talking are no match for hard work, dedication and heart.

Allison: Of course. But the match that is likely the biggest on the horizon is your match with Sophie Richards at the fourth annual Unstoppable. You and Sophie have been at odds with one another for over a year now in FFW, the longest running feud in the company’s history, I’d wager. And finally, you will settle it once and for all in Houston in front of 80,000 people. We saw her involvement most recently in your match against Arianna, and I’d like to get your thoughts as this final confrontation looms.

Again, Desirae sighs. This time more audibly.

Desirae: This issue between Sophie and myself goes back farther than anyone really realizes, I think. It all started, technically, when I got my reward for winning the second ever Chase for the Crown and got a shot at Sophie’s Television Championship last January. It didn’t get personal until after that, but that’s when it started. And who am I kidding? This bad blood between her and I had gone beyond personal. It’s gotten to the point where when we get in the ring at Unstoppable, I’m afraid that the match won’t be over until one of us is pretty much dead. And it’s not going to be me, Allison.

She shakes her head.

Desirae: I’ve listened to Sophie’s crap for far too long and I’ve dealt with her bullsh.....bull poo for far too long. Yeah, I faced Arianna not too long ago and there was some issues there between her and I. But make no mistakes about it, this whole thing has basically been between Sophie and I. Arianna, I hate to say it, was dragged into this by that cow Sophie and used like a chess piece.

She takes a deep breath and runs her hand through her hair as she shakes her head slightly.

Desirae: I don’t have any ill will toward Ari. I never really did. Sure I said some things here or there but you can go back and see for yourself. Even though she was wrapped around Sophie’s finger, even though she was being pulled around like a poor little puppet, even though she attacked me with a steel chair, I never once tried going out of my way to hurt her. And that’s because I think there’s still some good in her, Allison. But Sophie? She’s pure evil. And I am going to stop her and put an end to this when her and I collide in Houston.

Allison: Last question. What do you make of the reaction Arianna had when you faced her and Sophie involved herself? It certainly didn’t seem like she was happy about it.

Desirae shakes her head.

Desirae: No, it didn’t. And I’d like to think that maybe Ari’s coming to her senses. That perhaps she’s finally starting to see things for what they are when it comes to Sophie. But that’s just speculation on my part. Either way, I guarantee you that when I leave Sophie laying on the mat in Houston, she’s going to be seeing stars. But not just any stars, Allison. Pink stars. Pretty little pink stars.

Allison: Thank you for your time tonight, Desirae. Good luck Saturday.

Unity cuts to a commercial break.


Teddy Likes It Frosted

We cut to the Frosted Steele locker room where we see Laura Steele taking a sip of her tea.  Becka was seated beside her taking a loong sip from her starbucks coffee mug.  As she does so the door to the room opens up and we can see Teddy “Black” Steele clad in a  Union Jack Coloured suit top. He smiles as he walks inside with a backpack as he looks at his cousin in law and Rebecka.

Teddy: Well ladies tonight is the night you receive your first win as a team in FFW. Now since it’s your very first match, The agency of Steele wanted to make sure your first match didn’t go unnoticed. Especially since Kath-Lyn couldn’t be here for the two of you. So I present to you the first official.... “Frosted Steele hates Misty Whitmore & Canada Eh!!!” t shirt. Go on tell me you love it.

Teddy smirks as he pulls out the shirts and it has Frosted Steele in big bold letters. The Canadian flag is crossed out with the Union Jack next to it. He throws one to Laura who proudly embraces it as he hands one to Rebecka.

Teddy: Do you like it Rebecka?

Becka stared at the shirt for a minute before looking torn about something.  Reaching a decision, Becka took one more sip of her coffee before taking the lid of the mug and splashing coffee on the shirt.

Becka:  Have you lost your damn mind?  If we wear these shirts out there, we will be lucky to make it to the car without getting the shit beat out of us.  I am all for the “Frosted Steele hates Misty Whitmore” concept but you have got to think things through.  It is one thing to say we hate a wrestler.  Shit it happens all the time but you don’t go into a country that you are going to be in for a little while and say that you hate it.  That is just not smart.

Becka sighed as she tossed the shirt on the bench and stood up to get ready for their match.

Becka:  Don’t get me wrong, I know the agency works hard for us but common sense should go right there at the top of things to use.

Laura: Bloody hell! I love this shirt.

Laura smiles as she takes the shirt and puts it on as she stands on.

Laura: You should wear it Rebecka. This is why I love the shirt. Look it has the Union Jack flag on it. Thank you Teddy Black. This is really lovely of you.

Teddy smirks as he looks back at Rebecka crossing his arms at her.

Teddy: Hmmm what is wrong with this shirt? It looks absolutely fantastic to me. Maybe it should have had your forehead on it. Is that what it’s about... And about hating wrestling since your last name is Rebecka shouldn’t we hate you too? Wouldn’t it be better to hate others before they hate you or something like that?

Becka tightened her grip on her mug as she tried very hard not to strangle someone in the room.

Becka:  You are trying my patience right now, Mr. Black.  I didn’t say that we needed to hate wrestling, I said that it is one thing to say we hate a specific wrestler but a quite another to say that we hate a country that we are staying in for a while.  I promise you this though, if I ever  see a head shot of me on a t-shirt, I will shove it so far up your ass that you will be able to floss your teeth with it.

Teddy: The name is Teddy Steele... Don’t confuse me with that other black... Although you can call me Sexy Teddy if you want.

Becka growled as she emptied her mug in the sink of the bathroom before she walked over to her bag and placed the mug back in the ziploc that she keeps it in until she gets to the hotel.

Becka:  Laura, remember to stay focus tonight or you will have a grueling workout to deal with tomorrow.

Laura: Stay focused?! I am going to stay focused just like Andy Murray.

Teddy:  Ummm cheers and yes we love Wimbledon here.... Anyway come on ladies let’s win our first tag team match. Afterwards we can celebrate by showing the world the official Frosted Steele got their first win t shirts. What do you say Rebecka?
Becka looked at the two as if they had three heads but only growled as she couldn’t afford to deal with the paper involved with murder.

Becka:  We will talk about your choice of sports at a later date.  I will pass on future shirts as it is bad for my rep.  Let’s get through this match as then we will get ready for our match at Unstoppable.

Laura: Ok cheers... Tea afterwards if we win?

Laura smiles at Rebecka offering her a handshake.  Becka looked at Laura for a moment before turning towards the door.  She gave a slight fist bump walking out the door.

Becka:  How many times do we need to go through this?  Coffee is the only hot beverage that I drink.

Laura: Hmmm how about Coffee flavoured tea?! How does that sound?

Teddy: I could make it happen Rebecka... You know... Maybe you should be the one working on being a teammate. You really are letting the Agency down Rebecka.

Becka glared at the duo for a moment before smirking.

Becka:  I have been trying to work with Laura on being a team except that the Agency keeps trying to pretend they are something that they aren’t.  Now Laura and I have a match that you better not screw up for us.  Come on Laura, let’s beat these idiots.

Becka led the way out of the locker room towards the ring area.



Written by Mark

Unity returns from the commercial break as we immediately head back into the Air Canada Center before the bell sounds.

Wolf: Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen. Coming up next is definitely a match that has drawn great intrigue as Pure Adrenaline and Frosted Steel are scheduled to collide in a Capture the Queen match. Joining me for commentary is Christian Kincaid, manager for Rebecka Hate.

Christian: Right, came here to watch and support her. And to be clear, I do not manage Laura Steele. If I wanted to give to charity, I’ll just write a check or donate something.

We head up to the ring as Cory begins.

Cory: The following contest is scheduled for one fall, and it is a Capture the Queen match!

The music blares through the arena speakers as the lights grow dim, spotlights searching through the crowd as the fans cheer.  Soon, as the music picks up a spotlight stops, revealing Misty and Kate standing amongst the fans, grinning as they hold their arms up with a roar from the crowd. Misty raising her fist with a ear to ear grin, as Kate holds her guitar and barely smirks.

The girls make their way through the crowd, Misty giving high fives and hugs as Kate just trudges through the masses.  Both girls hop the barricade where Kate hands her guitar to an official.  Kate climbs up one turnbuckle, Misty up the other.  They can’t help but glance at one another before raising their hands to a roar from the crowd.

Cory: Introducing first, at a total combined weight of 216 lbs! Misty Whitmore & Kate Steele....they are....PURE ADRENALINE!!!

Christian: You mentioned how this match had intrigue, and a big part of it is because of Kate, who represents her opponents. I’ve been curious just how loyal she can be in this match, because she either will help hang Frosted Steel’s first loss as a tag team or sacrifice her own team in the end.

Wolf: Ms. Steele definitely is a focal point for this match. But if she has any integrity at all about her, she will not give her partner short shrift in this match tonight and compete as though it were any other match.

Christian: Then you take into account Misty had no idea what this match was despite it being part of several seasons of Future Shock. So this rabbit hole just gets deeper and deeper.

Lights out... The beginnings of the strumming of a guitar then... "I WANT YOU TO REMEMBER!", followed by pyros.

I want you to remember
A love so full it could send us all ways
I want you to surrender
All my feelings rose today
And I want you to remain
The power of children can amaze
I'll try not to complain
I know that's a pisser baby

Becka walked out from behind the curtain, ignoring the mixed reaction that is rained down on her from the fans.  She doesn’t look the least bit pleased as she walks to the ring.  The chorus blares on as she stops at the bottom of the ramp.

The chemicals between us
The walls that lie between us
Lying in this bed
The chemicals displaced
There is no lonilier place
Than lying in this bed

Laura emerge through the curtains to the sound of boos. Laura smirks as she turns her nose up at the crowd as she slowly struts her way to the ring.

Cory: And their opponents, at a total combined weight of 284 lbs! Laura Steele & Rebecka Hate....they are.....FROSTED STEEL!!!

Wolf: Very mixed reaction from our fans here in Toronto! Seems Rebecka Hate is getting cheered about as loudly as her tag partner is getting booed.

Christian: Just shows the fans have taste. Laura Steel is very much untested, and green isn’t green enough to describe her. Now she may have improved in the time since her Future Shock debut, so we’ll see quickly if she hasn’t.

The camera shows the red armbands on both Kate and Laura’s arms briefly.

Wolf: And courtesy of two coin tosses backstage, it would appear the Steeles are the Queens of this match.

Christian: I’d rather it have been Hate, because now she’s going to have to play even more defense than normal to keep her partner from tapping out to a side headlock or something like that.

Referee Robert Valero calls for the opening bell as both teams look across at one another. Rebecka seems a little annoyed with her partner, glaring over at her for a moment and giving her some instructions before Kate and Misty immediately go on offense. Kate blindsides Rebecka with a pair of forearm shivers to the head and chest, driving a pair of knees into her abdomen before using a snapmare to take her down to the canvas. She quickly bounces off the near side, catching her with a low dropkick to the back before she plants her knee into Rebecka’s back and applies a rear chinlock.

Wolf: Kate has taken the early advantage here of Rebecka’s need to give her partner advice, and is keeping Hate grounded at the moment.

Christian: We’ll see how long it lasts, I want to see Misty go after Laura myself! And it looks like I’m about to get my wish..

Laura chastised her cousin before Misty tapped her on the shoulder. And as the Brit turned, Misty coldcocked her with a right hand to the jaw followed by another and then another. Laura gets staggered backwards as the fans are solidly behind Whitmore before Misty takes her arm and unleashes a flurry of kicks to the body of the Brit that double her over in pain. Misty bounces off the near side and goes for a high knee, but Laura raises back up and catches her foot with an arrogant smirk on her face. Misty counters with an enzugiri that drops Laura to the mat.

Christian: The last thing you want to do is catch Misty’s foot, because she’s still got the other one and stuff like that will happen. Welcome to FFW, Laura!

Wolf: I’d agree there. Laura got a bit smug about managing to weather a few shots, and ended up paying for it.

Misty calls out to her partner as Kate releases the chinlock, pulling Rebecka up to her feet. She whips her hard into the corner before Kate drops to her hands and knees before Misty takes off, using her back as a step to deliver a big splash into Rebecka’s body. Hate staggers out as Kate catches her with a scoop slam. She leans over to grab her, but Rebecka shoves her off with some ease before Kate gets back to her feet and waves Misty forward. Whitmore takes off towards her as Kate scoops her up and tosses her into Rebecka for a cross body. But Hate caught Misty and lobbed her with a fallaway slam that sent her to the mat. Kate took off towards her client in a run, only for Rebecka to kick her in the gut and deliver a sidewalk slam that sent Kate into the mat.

Wolf: Some outstanding tandem offense from Pure Adrenaline, but it was obvious that Ms. Hate was not worn down nearly enough thus far.

Christian: Rebecka is entirely resilient. She went through one hell of a battle royal about a week ago, and came away with a win. It’s going to take more than a rear chinlock to stop her.

Laura began to get back to her feet, seeing Misty on the mat before she began firing boots into her body with repeated kicks as she tried to get up. Clubbing axe handle blows were driven into her back as Laura pulled her up to her feet and shoved her into the corner. Steele turned her back to Misty and began firing left and right elbows rapid fire in succession. Misty dropped to her knees in the corner before Laura gave her a swift kick in the chest to send her back down face first onto the mat.

Wolf: Basic but very effective offense from Laura Steele. One does not always have to be technically brilliant, and in Ms. Steele’s case, she is still proving effective.

Christian: I’ll give her that, she’s definitely showing some rudimentary skills in there. And she’s taken a few shots too, so maybe she’s worked on her resiliency. And her fear of being hit.

Rebecka dropped an elbow into Kate’s body once and then again before she leaned down to pull her up. Kate surprised her with a kick to the side of the head that stunned her briefly, allowing the redhead to roll to her feet. Kate took off for the far side and hit a chop block to the back of Hate’s knee as she tried to get up, which brought her right back down to the canvas again. A pair of knees to her back, Kate glanced up to see Laura and got to her feet, heading towards her. As Laura reached down to grab Misty, Kate pulled her backwards by grabbing both ofher arms. Laura seemed indignant to this as Misty rose back to her feet. Kate shoved her forward into Misty, who scooped her up onto her shoulders and fell straight back for a Samoan drop!

Wolf: I am very pleased to see Kate has decided to be loyal to her tag partner here, and she and Misty are certainly imposing their will on Laura.

Christian: It surprises me to see it, I won’t lie. But with Rebecka down, they have to focus on Laura.

Misty dragged Laura away from the corner a bit as Kate headed for the top rope. Whitmore moved around and grabbed her partner before throwing her off into a splash that landed perfectly onto her cousin! Kate quickly hooked her leg!

ONE!!!

TWOOOOOOOO!!!!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

Kate was jerked off the cover by Rebecka, who was back up to her feet. Steele rolled onto her back to try to kick Rebecka off, but Hate grabbed her feet and fell backwards, using a catapult to send Kate into the turnbuckle with authority! Kate was hung out to dry on the top rope. And as Rebecka turned around, Misty took off towards her. The gymnast went into a handspring back elbow, but Rebecka ducked the contact. And when Misty regained her bearings and turned, Hate scooped her up and delivered a devastating spinebuster!

Christian: Wow, almost had a near fall! And Rebecka is, as you might expect, the workhorse for Frosted Steel! They need to keep someone on her at all times.

Wolf: They also need to focus on Laura, because pinning Ms. Hate isn’t going to serve them well in a match like this!

Hate moved towards her partner, pulling her to her feet and pointing towards Kate. Laura shook off the cobwebs for a moment and headed for the corner, grabbing Kate’s feet and jerking her off the turnbuckle to the mat in a heap. She quickly rolled her over and went for a cover! Hate screamed at her to hook the leg as Valero fell to make the count.

ONE!!!

TWOOOOOOO!!!!!

TH-NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Kate kicked out as Laura mounted her relative and began to paste her with closed fists to the head. Valero warned her about it as she pulled herself to her feet. She dragged Kate out of the corner, and looked to apply a figure four leglock. But Misty managed to get away from Rebecka and caught her as Laura rose with a neckbreaker that took her right back down. And as Whitmore turned, Rebecka scooped her up with both hands around her neck, only for Misty to counter into a tornado DDT! She quickly scrambled across and covered Laura.

ONE!!!

TWOOOOOOOO!!!!

THR-NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Laura’s foot was under the bottom rope as Valero pointed it out.

Wolf: Rebecka was keeping an eye on her partner, and Misty took full advantage of it! We almost had a win right there.

Christian: You’re right. This is what makes Capture the Queen matches so popular for fans, because there is constant activity somewhere in or around the ring.

Misty glanced over to see Hate still getting herself together before she called out to Kate and began to drag Laura from the ropes towards the center of the ring. Kate pulled herself together and headed back to the top rope again. And with the people standing, she turned around and launched herself into a moonsault that landed perfectly onto her relative! Kate quickly hooked her leg as Valero fell for the count. Misty got back up and walked into a big boot to the face from Rebecka!

ONE!!!

TWOOOOOOOO!!!!!  

WHOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!

Kate was pulled off the cover with a rear waistlock by Rebecka. And as Steele tried to get free, Rebecka snapped her hips and drove her into the mat with a German suplex. Hate rolled through and snapped off a second one. One more roll through and a third was executed as Rebecka pounded the mat, getting back to her feet with the fans roaring in approval.

Christian: I’ve never actually seen someone break up a pin cover with a German suplex before!

Wolf: That was certainly very unique. And right now for the moment, Rebecka Hate certainly is running the ring.

Rebecka moved to the corner, lowering herself as she waved for Kate to get up. Steele began to stir slightly on the mat, starting to get to her feet. And when she turned around, Rebecka launched out of the corner with a spear!!

Wolf: My God, what a Spear! Kate Steele was nearly broken in half!

Christian: Folded up like a piece of paper right there! This is what you call game set match!

Rebecka hooked her leg as Valero dropped for the count.

ONE!!!!

TWOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

The pin was broken up by Misty executing Rolling Thunder to Rebecka, causing her to roll off the cover. And with a smile, Misty watched as Laura had begun to move. She quickly dropped down to the mat, pounding her fists rhythmically as the fans stomped their feet with her.

Wolf: I believe you were right, Mr. Kincaid. But just about the wrong outcome! One Peoples’ Decree coming up!

Christian: Laura’s a sitting duck! You’re right, Pure Adrenaline is about to take this match! Rebecka has to get up!

Misty’s fists pounded like a drum into the mat as she watched Laura begin to get up. And as Steele got to her feet, Misty hopped to her feet and took off towards her!!

Misty took off at top speed and left her feet as Laura grabbed Kate and pulled her in front of her! Whitmore connected perfectly with the knee strike, but hit her partner instead!

Wolf: Laura sacrificed her own relative in that! Misty just caught Kate with that knee strike!

Christian: What do you know? She’s smarter than I thought she was!

Laura dropped into the cover as Rebecka grabbed Misty from behind and sent her through the ropes to the floor!

ONE!!!!

TWOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!

Valero called for the bell as Laura hopped to her feet, jumping up and down excitedly as Valero took her and Hate’s hand to raise them into the air.

Cory: The winners of this match........FROSTED STEEL!!

Wolf: A very impressive debut victory for Frosted Steel! And Laura can thank Misty for that one, even though it was most unintentional!

Christian: Hey NHB, turns out it might be a tougher night at Unstoppable after all! I’ll give Laura credit, that was well played!

Laura embraced her partner, though Rebecka seemed to want none of it as she didn’t hug her back. And on that, we cut backstage.

[Adam Grant]

Trio of Anger

When we cut backstage near the interviewing corner, we find Herbert Richmond standing beside three women competing on the same team at Unstoppable, that of the FFW Evolution Champion, “The Tsunami” Eileen Amaro and Witches Brew, Sunny Kyoun & Steph Dallins. The three women are standing by in different FFW shirts highlighting future events coming. Amaro for instance is wearing an Unstoppable 2013 tee as she’s the first up to be interviewed.

Herbie: Ladies and gentlemen, I’m here with The Tsunami and Witches’ Brew. First off ladies I’d like to thank you for taking this time to allow me a few minutes with you. Um, first off Eileen your reign as Evolution Champion is already off to a rocky start, how confident do you feel going into this match, considering that, for what fans have called one of the biggest travesties in Future Shock, the Rudos as well as Trinity are some of the biggest cheaters in Femme Fatale Wrestling?

The Tsunami glances at Herbie for a few moments before glancing over at the belt sitting jauntily on her shoulder. With an arch of her brows, Eileen snorts.

Eileen: Some of the biggest cheaters in Femme Fatale Wrestling? ...Some of the biggest cheaters in Femme Fatale Wrestling? Should I repeat that again? What, did Isabella retire already? Everyone forget Lightning, Shepherd and Colleen so fucking soon? Should we even discuss Starla v.s. Wendy? No? That’s... That’s what I thought. Let me make something clear. While I’m sure would love to pat themselves on the back for what happened during the Future Shock Finale, and Trinity believing she beat me thanks to illness if Cody is to be believed, it’s really nothing short of pathetic. You want to know who the champions of the Tag Season of Future Shock are, like really are? The women beside me. You want to know what history will forever state in the annals of time? That they were beaten by Rudo Galactica. They were cheated out of a victory but considering just how much bullshit had to be thrown at Sunny and Steph, it should honestly not be so hard to win this match in an actual legit mean and even numbers. I mean really... There are women who have come through this company’s doors who could fuck someone over in a single action... The Rudos needed Trinity’s help on top of another trick or two up their sleeve to actually beat the team beside me but you know what... I’ll let them tell you about it.

Sunny stepped up next, wearing a Unity shirt to promote tonight’s event. Her long dark hair done up in adorable pigtails and her outfit just that tiny bit cuter in a pleated schoolgirl skirt.

Sunny: I know cheaters, lived with and dated one of the worst. I seen people bled before ref can see what happened, I seen matches won before bell rings because of cheating. I seen most underhanded, meanie face things done ever...and what you do? You use animals, you undo bikini top, you take from hands before referee sees and you use basic numbers! That not worst cheaters. Rudos and Evil Nun lady of Shame are not the worst, they are just...

Sunny’s face scrunches up and looks to Steph.

Sunny: What is word for poo head who not have original idea ever?

Steph stared at the camera with a grim look, her arms crossed over her chest and making it nearly impossible to view the FFW event imprinted on her tee.

Steph: You wanna know what the definition of a poo head who has no original idea is? I’ll tell you Sunny. It’s a [bleep] [bleep] [bleep]ing [bleep]er who can suck the back of an Episcopalian priest’s [bleep] for the [bleep]ing [bleep] [bleep]er [bleep]ing on her mother’s [bleep] [bleep]  [bleep]er [bleep]ing Stardust [bleep] while Trinity uses her blue strap-on in the back of [bleep] Meteora’s [bleep]ing  [bleep] inside of their donkey’s [bleep] on a [bleep]er! Also known as a Rudo!

Sunny’s eyes were so wide it was almost comical, she turns to Eileen so slow it was practically in slow motion.  She mouths something and points to Steph with her thumb, as if double checking if she understood what was said, just going back to Steph.

Sunny: Yep, that.

The Tsunami pinched the bridge of her nostrils with a lackadaisical sigh. The Evolution Champion hiked her championship belt over her shoulder again as Richmond held the mic to her lips after turning from Sunny.

Eileen: Steph I think that was a bit more than was necessary. Tiny bit. The point we’re trying to make about Trinity and the Rudos is that they are so fail as cheaters it took the lion’s share of bullcrap to actually pull it out. I mean either you’re that good or the Rudos just suck that much and since they’d never admit the former it’d be obvious that--

Steph: I. DO. NOT. FUCKING. CARE. WHAT. THEY. ARE. ...I want to hurt them.

Steph begins to mutter crazily to herself, her hands raising up in front of her in a clenching motion. There’s almost a... Disturbing hunger in her eyes, the power half of Witches’ Brew licking her lips longingly. 

Steph: I just wanna look into one of their eyes, behind that mask and I... Oh wait.

With that, Stephanie completely drops her best Sophia Black imitation and speaks calmly again.

Steph: It’s Trinity and the Rudos. The Michelle Taylors of cheating bullshit. I’ll feel more impressed when they use refs, wrestling tights with significant other’s faces on the crotches, and many other things we’ve seen in wrestling. The use of what... An animal? A poor man’s group of throwaway mooks in the form of nuns? That’s... That’s the best you could do? I mean let’s not take anything away from it. Sunny and I fell prey to it but... Couldn’t you guys have been even slightly more creative? I mean come now... We didn’t even warrant a referee bribed, with as much as it took you to finally take the match from us?

Sunny’s arms crossed now, she was pouting and even gives her foot a stomp.

Sunny: You not wrestlers, you not even thugs. You are mean clowns with slutty nun of shame friend and creativity of jar of mayonnaise. You insult us, you cheat in weakest ways and you mock us...all you do is make us angry. You have belts you not earned. Congratulations, you insulted everyone else who work to win Future Shock.

The Evolution Champion looks up to the ceiling and snorts.

Eileen: They don’t care. They want to embarrass this company then its only right that we embarrass them by taking them on in a match of their own culture and heritage. Two teams of three in a Trios Match, the first ever of FFW. A match we’re hoping to win to even the score of Witches’ Brew & Rudo Galactica and of course so I can remind Trinity that when someone keels over from a medical condition it has nothing to do with her or is in part to any of her doing. Why someone would be stupid enough to believe that is beyond me, but I’m sure it has to do with Trinity’s extraordinarily liberal religion or something about my personal life.

Herbie: With that said ladies, do you have any final words for the Rudos?

Eileen: Sure. You just aren’t as good as you think you are. Sunny?

Herbie comes over to Sunny for her final words, microphone in front of the Korean wrestler’s lips.  She pulls down one of her eyelids and sticks out her tongue giving a big, noisy raspberry. With that, the three women leave as Herbie thanks them for their time.




Written by Todd

Cory Kincaid: The following match is scheduled for one fall. Introducing first at a combined weight of 239 pounds they are team of Serafina Reynolds and Claire Black KO/TO!!!!!!!

Red Hot Chili Peppers ‘Can’t Stop’ begins to play over the PA as Claire Black and Serafina Reynolds step out of the back and walk toward the middle of the stage. Claire fires off some shadow boxing combinations while Serafina gets onto the balls of her feet firing off a combination of kicks, elbows and forearms before finally finishing off with a jumping roundhouse kick. High fiving the pair walk down to the ring, Claire unzipping her jacket and sliding it off her shoulders as she reaches the bottom of the ramp and slides into the ring, where she begins to shadow box once more. Serafina meanwhile, stops to take off her hooded sweatshirt, leaving her in her ring attire before checking the taping on her wrists and ankles and applying a streak of petroleum jelly over and under her eyes. Stepping between the ropes Serafina retires to her corner, meeting Claire and discussing tactics as they wait for the match to start.

Cory Kincaid: And their opponents weighing in at 235 pounds they are the current Unity Tag Champions! Hayley Dark and Ignis... The team of BOUNCE & POUNCE!!!

“No Limit” by 2 Unlimited hits the PA. The crowd cheers as Hayley & Ignis come out, either side of Mr. Showtime. Ignis twirls around Showtime as Hayley runs and runs down the ramp, hopping onto the guard rail. Hayley runs along it, before flipping off, and hopping into the ring. Ignis cuddles into Showtime, kissing him, before charging the ring and sliding in. The two slap hands, before hopping on adjacent turnbuckles and waving to the crowd, as Showtime makes his way to ringside.

Mark: What a match we have for you tonight, and it will be Tag Team wrestling as it’s finest as we will see the Unity Tag Champions take on the team of KO/TO

CCM: This should be a great match between both teams. If Claire and Serafina win tonight. That would definitely shoot them up within the Unity ranks.

Hayley and Serafina both start the match off against one another. As Claire and Ignis both take their respective spots on the outside of the ring. Jennifer Stringer stands tall in the center of the ring as she calls for the bell. The bell sounds and we are officially underway. The two meet in the center as they extend a hand clapping each other’s before they begin to unleash kicks with one another. Serafina goes for an immediate leg sweep which has Hayley jumping over it with ease. She lands back on her feet and begins to fire back with kicks of her own as she tries to nail a spinning kick. Serafina ducks under it as she follows up with a jumping spin kick. The fans are both on their feet as they take it to one another neither of them gaining an inch on the other. At the same exact time they both go for a spinning kick and they hit each other’s legs before pushing off and being a stalemate.

Mark: What a way to start off the match and this Toronto crowd is loving every bit of it.

CCM: This is the quality of competition that we have all come to expect from the Unity division, and these two are defining what it is all about.

Hayley immediately goes for a quick superkick to Serafina’s temple but she spins dropping Hayley to the mat with a leg sweep. She doesn’t waste anytime grabbing a hold of Hayley’s arm and locking her tightly into an armbar. She squeezes the dear life out of Hayley’s arm as Stringer moves in and checks Hayley.

Mark: Hayley went for the big knockout kick and finally Serafina has been able to gain an upper hand.

CCM: Hayley is in an area where she doesn’t want to be as Serafina has managed to lock her arm.

Serafina keeps Hayley grounded as she pulls tightly on the arm. Hayley let’s out a scream as she rises back up to her feet.She drives an elbow into Serafina’s gut. Another one, until eventually Serafina has broken the grip. Hayley grabs Serafina by the arm and slings her over with an arm drag taking her down to the floor. It isn’t long before Serafina get’s back up and is immediately taken down to the mat with a quick ddt. Hayley doesn’t waste any time hooking a leg for a pinfall as Stringer makes the count.

Serafina however is able to kick up as Hayley sprints over to her corner tagging in Ignis.

Mark: What a great back and forth exchange between Hayley and Serafina.

CCM: However as good as it was. A tag has been made as the fresh Ignis springs into the ring.

Serafina crawls over to her corner but Ignis yanks her back placing her into a Fujiwara Armbar. She keeps Serafina locked tightly in the hold as Serafina shakes her head refusing to give into it. She is close enough to the ropes that she grabs onto them causing a rope break. Ignis backs away giving Serafina the moment to stand up and as soon as she is on her feet Ignis is on the attack again. She gets behind as she takes Serafina’s head locking it underneath her as she goes for a reverse ddt. She drops backwards but ends up falling to the floor back first as Serafina still has a grip of the ropes. Serafina begins to walk over to her corner where she finally tags Claire in.

Mark: It took a while and finally Claire Black is in this match!

CCM: And look at the fire in her eyes. She has been waiting for this moment.

Ignis stands up and Claire begins to unleash a punch combo at Ignis giving her some lefts and rights. Ignis is standing up on what looks like jelly legs and Claire takes her fist and sends an uppercut right against Ignis’ face sending the redhead straight to the mat. On the opposite side of the ring Hayley is perched directly on the ropes and she leaps off with a flying crossbody but Claire catches her and throws her to the outside of the ring. The fans are on their feet as Claire is feeling it and stares at Ignis who is making it back up.

Mark: CLAIRE BLACK IS ON FIRE!

CCM: She has been building some momentum and is unleashing it on Bounce & Pounce tonight!

Claire hovers over Ignis who is finally up. She sends a roundhouse to her temple and as Ignis staggers Claire immediately walks back over to her corner and tags Serafina back in. Serafina steps into the ring and at the same time both of them launch roundhouse kicks that catch Ignis in the head. She is staggering as they lift her and send her onto the mat with a double brainbuster. Ignis reaches for her head in pain as Serafina drops down to make a count.


One.


Mark: Ignis brain must be rattling after those kicks and brainbuster combination.


Two



Just before the count of three Hayley makes it back into the ring to break the pin up. The fans are back up on their feet again as Hayley makes it to her corner and she has her hand extended wanting to receive a tag. She pounds away on her turnbuckle stretching her arm out as far as it can go. Ignis is still on the ground as favoring her head as Serafina makes her way towards her corner tagging Claire back in. Claire steps into the ring as Ignis crawls over to where Hayley is. She is mere inches away from her as she extends her hand out but comes up a bit short as Claire grabs a hold of the leg keeping Ignis at bay.

CCM: She is right almost there... Inches Mark! Just a few inches..

Claire however is the one to pull Ignis away from her corner but she breaks free as she uses her free foot to push off of Claire making it in her corner. With the tag Claire rushes at Hayley who doesn’t waste any time springboarding onto the ropes and leaps off of them backwards with a moonsault right on top of Claire. She remains on top of Claire as she hooks a leg tightly for the pin fall.


Mark: I don’t think Claire was expecting that and this could be all she wrote!



One



Two.


At the last very second Serafina grabs Hayley’s leg as she pulls her off of Claire. However Ignis is now in the ring and she pushes Serafina aside. Ignis and Serafina are fighting off in a corner as Claire stands back up and Hayley charges after her. All four women are currently in the ring with one another as they are battling each other to the loud roars of the crowd.

Mark: Jennifer Stringer seems to have lost control of this match and these four ladies are just battling it out!

CCM: These fans are all on their feet as they are enjoying every second of it.

Hayley grabs Claire as she whips her to the opposite corner and at the same time Ignis goes to whip Serafina the other way but she reverses as she sends Ignis right into Claire. Both women run face first into one another as they reach for their heads in pain. Serafina charges from behind with a clothesline as does Hayley but almost in unison who they want to clothesline end up ducking as they clothesline one another. All four women are hurting as they all try to regain their composure.

Mark: And it is a level playing field in the ring again.

CCM: Which one of these teams are going to break ahead of the other? Who is going to walk out as the winner?

The four women stand up again. Ignis and Serafina begin to battle with one another as Ignis launches a clothesline sending the two of them over the top rope and out of the ring leaving the two legal women in the ring. Hayley and Claire lock up in the center of the ring. Claire gains the advantage as she whips Hayley towards the ropes and winds her fist up waiting for Hayley to get back.

Mark: Here we go it looks like she is setting up for her Lucky’s Light’s Out!

Hayley runs back and that’s when Claire throws the fist however Hayley jumps over it landing both of her knees right against the face of Claire sending her down to mat.

CCM: BLOODY HELL MARK!! Did you see the hangtime?! Hayley just jumped over the fist and nailed Claire with her Boing Blaster!

Mark: Claire looks out.. I can’t believe it.

Hayley hooks the leg tightly for a pin as Stringer makes the count.

One


Two


CCM: There’s Serafina she is going to stop it!


Ignis however grabs onto Serafina’s leg keeping her at bay as Stringer’s hand slaps the mat a third time.

Hayley smiles as she stands up jumping excitedly as Ignis slides in hugging her as Stringer raises both of their hands high in the air.

Cory Kincaid: And the winner of this match by Pin Fall... They are the Unity Tag Team Champions!!!! BOUNCE & POUNCE!!!!!!

Serafina slides into the ring as Claire slowly makes it to her feet. The two of them shake hands with Bounce and Pounce. The fans cheer loudly as all four of them raise each other’s hands in the air.

Mark: What a great match on behalf of both teams. They both pulled out the stops.

CCM: If Claire could have hit that punch this might have gone the other way.

The fans just keep cheering as we go somewhere else.


Luther's Not Gonna Be Happy...

With a graphic letting the fans know that the six person tag team main event is still to come, we head to the ring where we find a face we haven’t seen on FFW television in some time. Dressed in a black button down shirt and matching slacks, Alexander Stryfe greets the crowd.

Alexander: Before I begin, I would like to thank FFW for allowing me this time tonight on their Unity special to address all of you. I have greatly enjoyed the show thus far, and I eagerly anticipate the main event that is set to take place here moments from now. The reason I have come here tonight is since my return to this business, I have missed being part of these FFW shows to a great degree. As many of you may recall, I was once the manager of the late Kaitlynn Stryfe. And though during her time here I was a bit...underhanded, the thrill of being in front of a FFW crowd and helping guide a superstar even higher than imagined is still something I enjoy. And tonight, I come to you with the proud accomplishment of having been hired as the new ..consultant for a woman here in FFW who, if I’m honest, is nothing short of a superstar not just in FFW but in any wrestling circle you can imagine.

He folds his hands in front of him before he continues.

Alexander: I have been given the honor and privilege of helping one of FFW’s most talented...I’d say most talented far and away actually.....to help guide her business matters going forward. Quite frankly, she does not need my assistance to win her matches. Because she is more than capable of defeating any star placed before her and will no doubt continue that trend in just a few moments in this upcoming main event. Her list of victories truly reads like a who’s who of stars in our business, including ending the heretofore record breaking singles title reign of one Serafina Reynolds at Relentless. She is a consummate athlete and possesses gifts in the ring that certainly earn her birthright. And then some. Ladies and gentlemen, allow me to introduce you to your reigning FFW No Surrender Champion....Tara Thunder!

Oddly enough we don’t hear any music, out walks Tara Thunder, holding the No Surrender title on her shoulder, she looks around somewhat surprised of the lack of her theme, shrugs her shoulders as if to say “fine, dont play it then” making her way to the ring to the dismay of most of the fans and joy of the very few actually seem to like her, she blows a kiss to the booing crowd before laughing it up a bit and walks up the ring steps, Alexander offers to open up the ropes for her but Tara shakes her head, she’s more than happy to get in the ring on her own and soon joins Stryfe in the middle of the ring.

Tara:”What a warm welcome indeed, hello to you too Toronto and all you lovely mothercanuckers out in the crowd. I am happy to be here as I said earlier, I do like to visit the great white north, but if this is the type of reception someone like me receives here, I’ll be even happier to leave here and will do that just as soon as this Main Event is settled, of course that will be in just a few moments, before that I would like to thank Alex here for approaching me with such a beneficial offer, thank you Alex, you don’t mind me calling you Alex do you? I am not that big on the whole “Mr Stryfe” thing, no offense, just a little something that I have deep dislike for, brings me memories of someone who apparently used to work for you for quite some time too.”

Stryfe shakes his head, holding up one hand as if to say “Quite alright.”

Alexander: Tara, we are associates. On the same level, as far as I’m concerned. I have no problem at all with you calling me Alex. Mr. or Mrs. would only be appropriate if you worked for me, which you don’t. We work together.

She flashes a wide smirk at the crowd that wants to start a “You sold out chant!” at her.

Tara:”Now wait just a gorsh darn moment there, eh? You heard what he said, we are associates, I don’t work for him. Which means I don’t have any conflict of interest between myself and the collection of talent that is Power Trip, All this has been cleared by Samantha Star herself and if she has no problem with this neither should any of you. Besides to be quite honest, this is just a logical next step to evolve my career, everyone seems to be looking out for themselves these days, setting up all sorts of deals left and right, who says I should not take a good chance when I get one, right? What harm is there really to let someone else worry about possible future bookings, challengers and whatnot, all that little menial nonsense champions should not worry about anyway. Nothing really changes, I will just have more time to focus on my training, preparing for my matches and in case some slimy rat bastard in a suit tries to screw me over..I got Alex here looking out for my best interest.”

Alexander: As I said before, Tara Thunder needs no one’s help to achieve victory. She has proven that each and every time she has stepped foot into this ring, whether it be by capturing the Evolution Championship as she has done or capturing the title she now proudly holds in the No Surrender Championship. My goal is to attend to her business matters, and ensure each and every chance she has to perform in this ring that she has nothing more to focus on than the opponent or in tonight’s case..opponents...in front of her. And as Spectra Fantasia and Wendy Briese no doubt already know and will be reminded momentarily, a focused Tara Thunder is a nearly unstoppable Tara Thunder.

For a moment it seemed like Tara was about to blush, was she actually modest about something for once? Nah that went out quickly.

Tara:”I am not stupid, don’t think I am coming out here to boast and brag about how Wendy, Camilla or Val have no chance in hell to beat me tonight. I am not here to have Alex pad my ego either, if anything. I am here to send out a message to everyone in the back and even some over the fence to the minor leagues that is Sex and Violence Wrestling that I am now going to have more time to prepare to face every and all obstacles in my way, I can spend my time going through different ways of destroying whoever is unlucky to be put against me in that ring. While any given night anyone can beat anyone in this business, I am simply just tipping the scales a bit to my advantage on this one. I have worked just as hard as anyone else on this roster, in some cases harder than others to achieve where I am, don’t I deserve to lighten the load from my shoulders? Do you think I am not worthy of having someone else worry about things I really have no interest for really. I like doing what I do in the ring, I love it so much that I’d rather focus on doing that and being the best damn No Surrender Champion, like all you obviously want me to be, right?”

Alexander: Nothing short of excellence is ever expected when Tara Thunder competes. And those of you here tonight in Toronto and watching this broadcast around the world are about to see a display to that effect.

Both glance to the video wall where the graphic for the main event is shown, and now says “Coming Up Next” before we head to commercial.

[Adam Grant]

Written by John

After the commercial break, we head back to the ring for the main event as we see Cory heading towards the steps.

Wolf: Ladies and gentlemen, we have taken our final commercial break of the evening and the main event is next! Joining me for this match is none other than ARCA racer and husband of Wendy Briese, Terrence Thompson.

Terrence: Yo, Wolfy.  How’s it hangin’, bro?

Cory: The following match is scheduled for one fall to a finish, is a six person tag match and is your Main Event of the evening.

“Dystryr Dystryr” by Lostprophets hits the PA system, and the crowd erupts. Out walk Valerie Lamb & Camilla Pazzini, raising their arms for the crowd, before giving each other a high five. They make their way down the ramp, slapping hands with the fans en route, before climbing into the ring. They then climb up adjacent turnbuckles, posing for the crowd, before hopping down and high fiving and hugging in the centre of the ring.

Cory: Introducing first, at a combined weight of 346lbs, the team of Camilla Pazzini and reigning FFW Champion and Hall of Fame Inductee, Valerie Lamb....SPECTRA FANTASIA!!!

Wolf: Quite possibly one of the most successful tag teams in FFW history, Spectra Fantasia comprising our own FFW Champion and Camilla Pazzini are a load to handle on their own! But when you throw in this woman.....

#EL-EH-VAY-SHUN!#

The crowd bursts into cheers as a short volley of green and gold pyro bursts on the stage, as the always upbeat “Elevation” begins to play over the loudspeakers.  Wendy comes out, grinning and waving at the crowd, as she walks towards the ring.  Behind her steps Pollaski wearing a pair of sunglasses, and stepping cockily down towards the ring.

Wendy slaps some hands as she gets to the bottom of the ramp, and climbs the steps, climbing into the ring.  She waves to the fans one more time, then turns back to the center of the ring, doing some last minute stretches on the ropes.

Cory: Their partner, accompanied to the ring by Daniel Pollaski, hailing from Indianapolis, Indiana, standing 5’8” tall and weighing 129lbs … WENDY BRIESE!!!

Terrence: How come kiddo over there never mentions she’s the cutest wrestler on the roster?  Cause she’s definitely the cutest.

Wolf: Your admiration of your wife’s looks aside, this is certainly one hell of a trio we have here. Definitely what the term ‘main event’ is coined for!

As the Jace Everett's “Bad Things” song starts Starla emerges from the backstage area as the line “When you came in the air went out” is sung. Pausing momentarily to stare into the crowd she is joined by Alex Adonis. Walking down to the ring she stops intermittently and sneers at the crowd, lining the ramp.

Climbing the ring steps she will turn on the top step to face outwards, arching her back against the ring post and running her hand down the curves of her body, before quickly turning and stepping through the ring ropes where she is joined by her husband. As the music fades, Alex finishes giving her a last minute pep talk and they exchange one last kiss before he leaves the ring and Starla turns her attention back to the middle of the ring.

Cory: And their opponents, introducing first, from Atlanta, Georgia weighing 127lbs and standing 5’9” tall, the number one contender to the FFW Championship and accompanied by Alex Adonis...STARLA MCCLOUD!

Wolf: The number one contender to the FFW Championship, Starla McCloud has a golden opportunity at Unstoppable! And while I do not admire her tactics, Valerie Lamb seems to fail to mention she is the one who Starla defeated to earn that contendership.

Terrence: Well, I beat her once, too.  Twice, actually.  So if Starla wants any pointers... although I don’t think Wendy would like that...

"Thunderstruck" starts playing and along with the starting riff out walks Tara Thunder dressed up in a pink and black combination there she stands at the top of the ramp as the crowd resents the usual sing along chanting to "Thunder!" resorting to boos and jeers at her.  Entrance way goes dark she walks to the ramp way the lights in the arena flash like a lightning during a thunderstorm and light back up before she heads rushingly towards towards ringside refusing to slap hands of the fans then she jumps on the apron letting the pyro explosions go off around the ring before flipping herself over the top rope. Once in the ring she takes of her pink jacket, flicks her long curly hair back swinging her curvy body a bit doing some hits and kicks as the music dies down.

Cory: Her partner is 5’6”, 136lbs and comes from Amsterdam in the Netherlands, the reigning FFW No Surrender Champion...TARA THUNDER!!!

Wolf: The reigning FFW No Surrender Champion, we heard from Tara Thunder here before the break. And if I don’t miss my guess....

Trailing behind Tara was none other than Alexander Stryfe, applauding her as he moved to a corner.

Wolf: Yes, Tara introduced us to her new business associate, Alexander Stryfe, right before the break.

Terrence: I like this Thunder chick.  She’s kinda nuts.  But I think you gotta be a bit nuts in this sport.  Especially if you’ve got two older brothers in it too...

"Explosive" by Bond hits the PA, and the crowd erupts into boos. Isabella walks out of the entranceway, smirking at the crowd, before posing with her arms outstretched as Catherine-wheel pyrotechnics whirl and explode behind her. Isabella makes her way slowly down to the ring, before climbing up the steps and over the middle rope. Isabella walks to the far turnbuckle and outstretches her arms once again, as pyros fall like rain all around the ring.

Cory: And finally, coming from Palermo, Sicily, standing 5’10” tall and weighing 135lbs, she is the only Three Time FFW Champion and a Hall of Fame Inductee...”THE DIVA OF EXTREME” ISABELLA PAZZINI!!!

Wolf: In her last in-ring appearance before her retirement match at Unstoppable 4, Isabella Pazzini is no doubt looking to remind Wendy Briese and her sister and the FFW Champion that she is just as dangerous as ever.

Terrence: One last final hurrah for her.  Trying to create some more memories to think back on when she’s sitting on the couch eating entire boxes of bon bons.

The two teams gather up in their respective corners, Spectra Fantasia and Wendy Briese careful to keep an eye on the opposition as they discuss strategy, although the Power Trip also seem to be more concerned with their tactics for the match as Cory leaves the ring. Jennifer Stringer hurries the two teams up and Starla McCloud and Wendy Briese are the two who start out the match for their teams. The two girls circle each other before they move forward and hook up in a collar and elbow tie up. Wendy gets the early advantage, spinning the tie up into a side headlock. Starla wraps an arm around Wendy’s waist and moves her backwards towards the ropes, looking to shoot her off, only for Briese to keep hold, using the momentum to her advantage as she turns her hip into her opponent and sends her to the mat, keeping the headlock applied. Slowly Starla begins to push upward to her feet, only getting to her hands and knees before Wendy transitions the headlock into a hammerlock, wrapping her free arm around Starla’s throat and her legs around her waist as she rolls the pair onto their back.

Terrence: Nice bit of chain wrestling there, hon!  Starla’s looking to have a bit more of a power game there, but Wendy’s trying to stay one step ahead of her.

Wolf: In the ring now, we have two of the best technical wrestlers in the world going hold for hold. These two women are hardly strangers to one another.

Not panicking, Starla uses her feet to drag Wendy towards the ropes and manages to hook her leg around the bottom rope and Stringer calls for the break, Briese releasing the hold instantly and Starla quickly gets to her feet. The pair begin to circle again and once more they lock up. This time Starla gets the best of the exchange, hitting Wendy with an arm drag that takes her to the mat and instantly the Indianan pops up to her feet, only to be met by a dropkick from Starla McCloud knocking her back to the mat. Again the two women get up quickly and once more, Starla gets the upperhand, sweeping Wendy’s legs out from under her and sending her crashing back first to the mat. As the air gets driven out of her, Starla quickly drops an elbow into her stomach and pulls her upwards, twisting her arm into an armbar and walking over to the Power Trip corner where she tags in Isabella Pazzini.

Wolf: Starla with the tag to Isabella, and now the first ballot Hall of Famer looks to get in a little time with her final opponent when we get to Houston!

Terrence: Yup.  Get a good look here, kids!  This is a preview of what you are plunking money down to see in three weeks, so enjoy the appetizer!

Pazzini comes in through the ropes and as Starla keeps Wendy’s arm away from her body, Isabella drives a fist into her exposed ribcage, quickly following it up with a second and a third before Starla releases the hold and clocks Wendy in the side of the head with a big right hand and the two women hook Wendy by the head and lift her up and slam her down into the mat with a snap suplex. Starla slides out of the ring and takes up a position in the Power Trip corner as Isabella floats over Wendy Briese and drives repeated right hands into the White Knight’s forehead, before she makes the cover.

Terrence: Not even gonna be close here.

One...

Two....

Wolf: An early near fall for Isabella there, but a little too early in this case. Something we’ve seen more than once tonight, in fairness.

Wendy kicks out of the hold and starts to come to her feet, only for Isabella to back up to the ropes, bouncing off them to get a little bit of momentum as she drives a knee into the side of her jaw. As Briese staggers, Isabella pulls her to her feet and with a short Irish whip sends her crashing into the Power Trip corner. Quickly Isabella goes to work on Wendy, delivering kick after kick after kick into her stomach, backing up as Stringer reaches four on the count.Turning around Isabella walks over towards Spectra Fantasia, trash talking both members and diverting Stringers attention for a few short seconds - allowing Starla McCloud to stand on the bottom rope and apply a rear chinlock to Wendy as Tara delivers a couple of quick blows to Wendy’s ribs. The pair stopping as Isabella turns back towards Wendy and charges in, catching her in the corner with a body splash.

Wolf: The Power Trip have, thus far, done a magnificent job of managing to isolate Wendy from her partners.

Terrence: She’s got a lot of endurance than, and she’s been in the ring with all three of these ladies before.  If they give her an opening, she’ll take advantage, and get out of trouble.

As Wendy looks to stagger out, Isabella pushes her back into the corner and tags in Starla McCloud who quickly enters the ring and stands close to Wendy, delivering several knees into her midsection before snapmaring her out of the corner as Stringer reaches four. Bouncing off the ropes, Starla delivers a low dropkick that catches Wendy in the chest, causing her to roll to one side. Once more Starla applies an armbar to Wendy and tags in Tara Thunder who steps between the ropes and climbs up to the middle turnbuckle and flies, connecting with a double axe handle smash into her shoulder. Wendy falls to her knees on impact and as she stands back up, Starla leaves the ring and Tara Thunder applies an abdominal stretch. With the hold applied, Tara drives her elbow downwards into Wendy’s ribs. Thunder looks to torque up the pressure on Wendy, only for the former No Surrender Champion to start to fight back, gritting her teeth and with quite the effort manages to hip toss Tara Thunder to the mat.

Wolf: And Wendy Briese seems to have just about had enough of this onslaught, and Tara Thunder can vouch for that! Also no strangers to one another here.

Terrence: I dunno though, that took a lot out of her.  Hon might be in trouble here.

Wendy drops to her knees from the strain of the counter and turns towards her corner, trying to get to her feet as she stumbles towards her corner, only for Tara to get back to her feet and cut her off, grabbing her in a rear waistlock. Quickly Tara goes for an Belly to Back overhead throw, getting impressive elevation that allows Wendy to land on her feet. As Tara turns towards her, Wendy explodes forward, catching her head and taking her down with a swinging DDT. Wendy slowly rises to her feet and starts to go towards her corner, only for Tara to start to rise, alerted to the fact by her teammates, Wendy turns around and charges at Tara, delivering a Shining Wizard. Quickly the Indianapolis native looks to make it to her corner. Mere moments before she dives to make the tag to the out-stretched arm of Valerie Lamb, Starla McCloud enters the ring and gets cut off by Stringer.

Wolf: Wendy makes the tag to the FFW Champion, but I don’t think Jennifer Stringer saw the tag because of Starla! Here comes the FFW Champion!

Terrence: Stringer’s got no choice now!  Val’s a house of fire, and no amount of referee spittle is going to put her out!

Hopping over the ropes, Val charges towards Starla as the redhead breaks free of Stringer and moves towards Lamb, getting a clothesline for her trouble. As soon as Starla rises, Valerie catches her with another running clothesline. Again Starla starts to rise to her feet and Val grabs hold of her head and with a snaps off a vicious looking swinging neckbreaker, crashing the number one contender into the mat. As she looks to pull Starla to her feet, Stringer gets in front of Val, ordering her out of the ring only for the Champion to argue that a tag was made. Stringer though is having none of it as she indicates the recovering Wendy and Tara to be the legal women.

Terrence: Hunh.. apparently Stringer’s got stronger spittle than I thought...

Wolf: As we mentioned, she did not see the tag! And the FFW Champion is practically having to be restrained here.

Val continues to argue as Tara gets to her feet and catches a rising Wendy with a thunderous right hand. Quickly Tara takes hold of Wendy’s wrist and sends her hurtling into the Power Trip corner, Valerie finally accepting Stringer’s decision and starts to rally the crowd behind Wendy as Tara charges into the corner behind Wendy and crushes her with a running clothesline. Tara backs up a couple of steps and Wendy staggers towards her, Tara catching her with a front kick to the gut, doubling her over before she grabs hold of her and throws her shoulder first between the turnbuckle pads and into the steel ring post. Stringer begins to read Tara the riot act - not that the Dutch woman cares as she runs towards the opposite corner, knocking Camilla from the ring apron. As Camilla lands on her feet she slides into the ring to go after Tara, only for Stringer to be right on the scene to stop her from getting through the ropes. Once more, with Stringers attention diverted, Isabella takes full advantage, dropping off the apron and grabbing Wendy’s wrist as she pulls backward, keeping her shoulder against the steel post as she tries to separate the joint.

Wolf: I am of the mind in matches of this size, we need more than one official at ringside! And Isabella Pazzini is currently proving the point for me!

Terrence: For crying the fuck out loud.  Is this how you guys do business here?  Wendy should have been on the apron five fuckin’ minutes ago, and there she is, getting maimed by an illegal woman!  What the fuck, FFW?!

Isabella drops Wendys arm and hops back onto the apron a moment before Stringer turns back around, Pazzini making a big show of innocence, holding her hands up, with the tag rope held in one hand. Released Wendy staggers away, still bent over, holding her arm against her and Tara bounces off the ropes and goes for a well placed bicycle kick...that misses her target as Wendy stands upright at the last moment. As Tara turns to face Wendy, she unloads on Thunder with a series of Taekwondo kicks, that doubles her over and immediately Wendy fights through the pain in her shoulder to apply a Muay Thai clinch accompanied by a series of knees into her opponents abdomen. Tara pushes Wendy away and straightens up, only for the former No Surrender Champion to spin around, hook her head and drive her straight into the mat with an RKO.

Wolf: Ace Crusher! Out of nowhere, Wendy just flattened Tara with that! Now’s the time to make the tag!

Terrence: I taught her that!  … At least I think I did.

Wendy pushes to her feet and starts to make for her corner. As Isabella enters the ring to try and prevent the tag, Camilla has her intentions read and is already flying towards her, catching her in the midsection with a spear, talking her down to the mat and Camilla quickly takes up a mount position and wails on her sister with rights and lefts. With the Pazzini sisters starting their own pier six brawl, Wendy dives into the corner and makes the tag to Valerie Lamb, Stringer signalling the call. As Valerie enters the ring, Starla hits the ropes and delivers a knee trembler into the side of Camilla’s head to knock her off Isabella who gratefully escapes to the outside of the ring. As Starla looks to apply a guillotine choke on Camilla whilst the woman is on her knees, Val sneaks up behind her and delivers a pele kick to the back of her head, causing her to release the hold. As Starla starts to slump to one side, Val pulls her up by the hair and throws her over the top rope to the outside.

Wolf: The FFW Champion is definitely cleaning house here, and Starla may have had her head cracked off that Pele kick from Ms. Lamb!

Terrence: Well, there’s the other main event at Unstoppable, and Val’s trying to send that message that Starla’s second attempt at the belt is going to go about as well as her first!

Valerie turns her attention back to the legal woman for the Power Trip only to find herself on the receiving end of a discus clothesline. As soon as Val hits the mat she rolls to her feet and Tara looks to send her in for the ride. Valeries hits the ropes and comes back towards her opponent as she lowers her head and puts on the brakes, kicking her in the chest. Tara begins to straighten up, but Val stops her as she drives her head down into her knee with a facebuster. Tara bounces back to her feet and Val sizes her up, crashing her boot into Thunders jaw with a crescent kick. Tara stumbles backward and only manages to stay on her feet thanks to the ring ropes in the corner. The FFW Champion stays right on the attack, scaling the ring post before she spikes Tara’s head down into the canvas with a Tornado DDT. Rolling her over, Val makes the cover, hooking the leg.

Wolf: Val with the cover on Tara, could this be it?

One...

Two...

...THR-

Terrence: That hand was coming down, but Tara kicks out!

Tara kicks out as Isabella dives on top of Val and is immediately backed out of the ring by the official. Val pulls Tara  to her feet and sends her into the Spectra Fantasia corner and makes the tag to Camilla Pazzini. As Camilla comes in the pair take turns to stomp away at Tara’s midsection, Val leaving the ring on Stringers four count while Camilla continues the punishment, stomping away at Tara until the Dutchwoman slumps down into a seated position in the corner. Camilla makes another quick tag to Val and the Scot catapults herself over the top rope and delivers an elbow drop into Tara’s stomach. As Tara remains propped up against the bottom turnbuckle, Val directs traffic backing up across the ring as Camilla takes up position between her and the Power Trip member. Val comes charging forward and her tag team partner drops her shoulder with perfect timing, elevating her high into air with a back body drop that Val transitions in mid air into a dropkick straight into Tara’s face. Pulling her up by her hair, Val sets her up and drives her into the canvas with a side Russian leg sweep and makes the tag to Camilla once more. As quickly as she can Camilla climbs to the top rope and leaps into the air, landing on Tara with a flying headbutt. Camilla hooks the leg and makes the cover.

Terrence: You can see the chemistry of Spectra Fantasia there, playing out flawlessly.  The Power Trippers didn’t have a freakin’ clue how to handle that.

One....

Two...

...THRE-

Wolf: NO! And give the assist to Starla McCloud who may have just saved Tara Thunder from a pinfall!

This time Starla makes the save in the nick of time, Valerie coming after her, only for Starla to hightail out of the ring and back to her corner. Stringer orders Val to leave the ring and Tara takes advantage of the distraction to jab a thumb into Camilla’s eye before she lifts her upwards and drives her into the mat with an Alabama Slam. Breathing heavily on her knees, Tara starts to push up to her feet and stumbles towards a neutral corner, before getting her bearings and heading towards her partners on the apron. Camilla however manages to get to her feet and grabs hold of Tara’s wrist, trying to pull her back but Tara fights back and delivers a mule kick into Camillas gut, which she follows with a scissor kick to the face and an Impaler DDT. Taking a couple of moments to get her breath, Thunder rolls onto her knees and crawls towards her corner, diving forward and making the tag to Starla.

Terrence: Tough break for Spectra and Wendy there.  Tara was FATIGUED, and Starla’s definitely fresh by comparison.

Starla comes into the ring and instantly charges at Camilla who is on her knees, the larger Pazzini seeing her coming in and catching the good doctor with a huge spinebuster that shakes the ring, Camilla rolls onto her back and takes a moment to clear the cobwebs before she sits up and comes to her feet, finding Starla waiting for her. The redhead opens her attack with a palm thrust into Camilla’s cheek and her opponent fires back with a huge right hand. Starla staggers before she regains her balance and tries another line of attack as she catches Camilla in the hamstring with a martial arts kick. Camilla’s leg buckle slightly under the force of the blow but not enough to slow her down as she launches another right hand bomb that finds it’s target, Starla again getting all unsteady on her feet as she regains her footing once more. Another martial arts kick to Camilla gets naught but another huge right in response from the much bigger woman, Starla stumbling backwards into the ring ropes. Choosing to try and use this to her advantage Starla looks to build momentum and launches herself onto Camilla’s shoulders, looking to flip her over with a hurricanrana but the former Ultraviolence Champion stays on her feet as Starla attempts the move, trapping her on her shoulders before driving her down with a sitout powerbomb, holding for the pinfall.

Wolf: Starla McCloud got powerbombed into oblivion by Camilla! This may well be the end of this match!

One...

Two...

...THR-

Terrence: Dammit!

Starla kicks out of the cover at the last moment and is brought to her feet by Camilla who sends her in for the ride, catching her with both hands in the chest and throwing her up into the air, Starla faceplanting into the canvas on the way down. Positioning herself carefully, Camilla traps Starla’s hair under her feet and looks to lift her up to her feet by the arms only to drop her straight on her face once more. Releasing her hair, Camilla this time does actually bring Starla to her feet and sends her into the ring ropes, catching her coming back with a tilt-a-whirl backbreaker, keeping hold after driving her into her knee and standing up with her still in her grip. Repositioning the good doctor into a sidewalk slam, Camilla simply lets go of her opponent and lets her crash land back first into the canvas. Starla tries to roll away from Camilla and get to her feet only for the big Italian to once more cut her off, bringing her to her feet and once more Irish whipping her into the ropes, launching her into the air with a back body drop. As soon as she lands on the mat, Starla reacts in agony, sitting up and trying to get to her feet turning straight into the grip of Camilla Pazzini who slams her down with a chokeslam. Dropping down to her knees, Camilla Pazzini pushes the doctors shoulders onto the mat with all her weight.

Wolf: A spine-shaking chokeslam! And that’s what Camilla brings to the table, raw power! This could be it!

One....

Two...

...THREE!!!

NO!!!!

Terrence: Jeebus!  How many lives does she freakin have!?

At the last second Starla McCloud manages to kick out and Isabella Pazzini comes into the ring, distracting her sister and Stringer. As the Pazzini’s shout at each other and Stringer tries to get the former FFW Champion out of the ring, Starla recovers to her knees and drive her forearm upwards and into Camilla’s groin. Noticing Isabella still distracting the referee, Starla delivers another low blow to the legal member of Spectra Fantasia. As Camilla holds herself in her vulnerable area and drops to her knees, Starla comes to her feet and connects with a roundhouse kick to the back of Pazzini’s head before she double underhooks her arms as she falls forward and delivers her Freudan Slip DDT into the canvas. Rolling Camilla over with great difficulty, Starla throws an arm over her chest.

Terrence: Oh, come on Cammie.  It can’t hurt THAT much... there’s nothing there!

One...

Two...

...THR-

Wolf: Credit the supreme resilience of Camilla Pazzini for managing to kick out there! This match has had a seemingly endless number of close calls thus far! How much more do they have left in them?

Camilla throws up her arm at the last moment, breaking the count and Starla stares at Stringer, accusing her of a slow count. Getting to her feet the good doctor glares at the official and goes back to her opponent as she rolls onto her back and quickly steps on her calves, crossing Camilla’s arms across her chest in a straitjacket before she rocks backward all the way onto her back and shows an impressive display of leg strength to hold on the straitjacket surfboard submission hold. Stringer checks with Camilla who refuses to quit to the hold, shaking her head as Starla tries her best to pull back on her wrists. The toll of holding the larger woman up in that position soon starts to show as Starla’s legs buckle and eventually give as the Atlanta native is forced to roll to the side and release the hold. Camilla pushes up to her feet as Starla drags herself upwards and with the two on their feet, Starla takes a heartbeat to measure up Camilla and jumps up looking to catch her in the back of the head with her boot, but her opponent telegraphs it, catching hold of her leg as it comes in and drives the red head down with a spinebuster. Camilla falls forward on top of Starla, making the cover.

Terrence: Ah, this HAS to be it now, right?

One...

Two...

Tara starts to enter the ring to make the save, only for Wendy to dive in as well, cutting Tara off with a dropkick into her side.

...THREE!!!NO!!!!

Wolf: We’ve talked about how well Spectra Fantasia has worked in this match, and loathe as I am to admit it, the Power Trip have also worked as a well oiled machine as well tonight.

Immediately Stringer waves it off as Starla’s shoulder shoots upwards a hummingbird’s wing beat before the three count. As Tara pulls herself up with the ring ropes, Wendy charges at her with a clothesline that sends both women over the top to the outside. Rolling to her knees, Starla finds herself a long way from home and begins to crawl towards her corner, only for Camilla to roll over and make the tag to Valerie Lamb who comes in and tries to cut Starla off, grabbing hold of her ankle. Starla pushes up to her feet, bouncing on one foot before she leaps up into an enzugiri that misses as Valerie Lamb ducks underneath it. Starla lands hard on her front, the air getting driven out of her lungs and Lamb leaps onto her back, looking to apply a Camel Clutch that sees Starla react with a purely instinctual counter, scurrying backwards and pulling Val’s foot out from under her and into an ankle lock. McCloud tries to increase the pressure on the champion only for Val to push her away with both legs. Starla’s back hits the turnbuckle and she charges forward, taking Val off her feet with a clothesline. As Val gets to her feet, Starla softens her up with a series of knife edge chops and sends her into a neutral corner, waiting until she hits the corner before she sets off, launching herself forward into a handspring back elbow, Val ducking underneath the attempted blow. Spinning around she catches her with a lungblower sending her back into the corner. Kipping up to her feet, Val monkey flips her back into the middle of the ring. Once more Val makes it to her feet quickly and climbs up to the second rope, before she flips backwards and lands on Starla with a perfect moonsault. She hooks the leg for the cover.

One...

Two...

...THRE--NO!!

Terrence: Could you imagine the confidence Val would have had going into Unstoppable knowing she’d just pinned her number one contender?  What a coup!

Isabella makes the save to keep the match alive. Val stares down Isabella as she backs up to the corner and takes hold of the tag rope. On the outside of the ring, Tara and Wendy are still going at it, Tara with the upperhand as she bounces Wendy’s face off the steel steps. Turning back to Starla, Val pulls her to her feet and sends her in for the ride as she charges in the opposite direction. As Starla bounces off the ropes, Isabella makes the blind tag, signalled by Stringer and she takes her time coming into the ring, letting McCloud and Lamb meet in the centre, Val catching Starla with a jumping knee, as Starla staggers, Val kicks her in the gut and lifts her up for a gutwrench powerbomb only for Isabella to throw herself at the two with a dropkick into Starla, sending Valerie to the mat. As Starla rolls away, Isabella goes to work, dropping a knee onto Val’s body. Pulling her upwards, Isabella waits for a moment before driving Val back down to the mat with a reverse DDT. Once more Isabella brings Val to her feet and snaps off a suplex, not releasing her head as she pulls her up once more and into a spike DDT. Still Isabella keeps her head hooked and pulls her opponent to her feet and drops her with a brainbuster. Isabella rolls over and makes the cover.

Wolf: I’ve lost count of all the near falls we’ve had in this match!

One...

Two...

...THRE-

Terrence: Val kicks out in the nick of time!  No one is able to keep their opponents down for long enough!

The Scot kicks out of the cover and comes to her feet only to be sent straight back down with a running spinning heel kick. Once more Val tries to rise and Isabella pulls her up to her feet by the wrist, yanking her forward and driving an elbow smash into the side of her head. As Valerie hits the mat, Isabella leaps upward and lands with both feet in a double foot stomp right to Val’s gut. Stepping backwards, Isabella waits for Valerie to get to her feet before she leaps onto her shoulders with the Bellacanrana #2. Quickly crawling over the mat, Isabella makes the cover.

One...

...THRE-

Wolf: Wendy makes the save for her team! She managed to give Tara the slip on the floor, and this six femme tag team main event will continue!

Wendy manages to escape Tara’s clutches on the outside for just long enough to break up the pin, but Tara follows Wendy into the ring and the two begin to exchange blows as Stringer looks to get in between them. With Stringer distracted, Starla comes into the ring and her and Isabella look to pull Valerie to her feet and into a double suplex, only for Camilla to get involved in the match, charging forward and catching Starla in the gut with a spear, driving her backwards as she folds her in half. With half of the support gone, Valerie kicks her legs and manages to twist herself around into a crossbody block, sending Isabella back to the mat and into the cover. Turning around Stringer ignores Tara and Wendy for the moment and dives into position to count the cover.

One...

Two...

...THR

Terrence: So close again!  And all control has broken down in this match!  All six women going at it!

Isabella kicks out and and starts to come to her feet. Stringer turns back to Tara and Wendy just in time to see Tara return the favour from earlier and clothesline herself and Wendy back over the top rope to the outside. As Isabella gets to her feet, Valerie, goes for the right cross, that Isabella manages to duck and dodge but only for Camilla to grab her from behind and drive her into the canvas with a belly to back suplex. Camilla pulls her upward and sends her in for the ride as Stringer begins to count her down and Camilla lifts her up and Spectra Fantasia connect with a 3D. Camilla rolls to the outside and climbs to the top turnbuckle as Val climbs the opposite turnbuckle. As Pazzini measure up her sister, Starla, manages to recover enough to get to her knees and yank Camilla’s foot out from underneath her, sending her crashing to the outside, landing awkwardly. Stringer reads the riot act to Starla as she rolls to the outside and checks on Camilla. Back in the ring, Valerie flies off the top rope, looking for a double foot stomp, only for Isabella to kip to her feet and explode upwards with an uppercut that drives her trademark bell hammer into Val’s jaw. Stuffing the weapon back into her top, Isabella hooks both legs and makes the cover.

Wolf: THAT DAMN HAMMER!! NOT LIKE THIS!

One...

Two...

...THREE!!!

Terrence: Well.... fuckberries.

Cory: Here are your winners, the team of Tara Thunder, Starla McCloud and Isabella Pazzini....THE POWER TRIP!!!

Both Starla and Tara join Isabella as she gets back to her feet ultimately, clasping hands as the trio raise their hands in victory.

Wolf: If Isabella wanted to leave one more memory before Unstoppable, she certainly did! That was deplorable, and a ruin to what had been an outstanding main event!

Terrence: Yeah, well, I’d hate to say it, but we all know that’s how she operates, and Val’s no exception.  It’s all good though.  One more match, and Wendy forces that bell hammer to be hung up for good.

Wolf: We are out of time here in Toronto! Make sure you tune in Saturday to Breaking Point as we take the final stop before Unstoppable! Thank you for joining us here tonight for Unity!

With the fans booing as the Power Trip stands tall, the FFW logo flashes across the screen and Unity fades off the air.
