Season 21 - Episode Four
March 15, 2016

The FFW logo appears on the screen as snow begins to fall around it. It disappears as we settle on a quiet suburban neighborhood, which apparently is all set up for Christmas. Lights line some of the roofs, illuminated reindeer sit in the front yards of a few homes, and then we see a small group of carolers walking up to one of the houses. One of them rings the doorbell as the family inside peers through the window while the dad answers the door before the group begins to sing.

As the camera pans down to the carolers (seven in all), they begin to sing “Silent Night” aloud with not the most harmonious unity. The carolers are Andi Takata, Chrysta, Kaylee Clarke, Shauna O’Connell, Tabatha Belmont, Samantha Tolson, and Kimberly Aries (who is wearing a Christmas themed lei around her neck). The family gathers at the door as they begin.

Silent night, holy night, all is calm, all is bright
Round yon virgin Mother and Child, holy

Kaylee glances over to Tabatha on the word “virgin”, holding back a snicker as the stripper shoots her a dirty look while the rest continue to sing. Aries glances around and thumps the back of Samantha’s ear, causing the brunette to turn around to see Aries pointing at Chrysta. The Change of Heart member looks over to Kimberly, who is singing and acting as though nothing happened.

Silent night, holy night, shepherds quake at the sight,
Glories stream from heaven afar, heavenly hosts sing

The mention of the heavens causes Andi to look up longingly at the sky before Shauna bumps her in the back of the head, and points to the family to get her focused on the singing. Andi’s face frowns in annoyance, glancing back to her again before Shauna turns her head back around again.

Silent night, holy night,
Son of God, love's pure light,

Tabatha is still giving Kaylee a dirty look before the Canadian star turns back to the hymnal when Belmont thwacks her with it, taking her down to the snow and starting to unload. Andi has had enough of SHauna, and catches her with a back elbow to the head. Shauna fires back, while Samantha gets thumped on the ear again, and turns around in time to see Aries pulling her hand back. Tolson uses a double leg takedown on the Hawaiian as Chrysta backs away from the group as a full-on brawl erupts in the snow. It was at this point Zack and Mai arrive with headsets on, starting to call the action as if it were a show. The family slams the door shut as the brawl continues.

Zack: Tolson raining right hands right onto Aries, and Chrysta’s just watching it unfold!

Mai: What do you expect, Zack? Bitch had it coming!

Chrysta shakes her head as she looks up to the sky amidst the group melee, and there we see the Future Shock logo with the stars spelling All Star. From there, we head inside the Future Shock Center in Boston with a small but enthusiastic crowd awaiting as they see themselves on live television. The show cuts down to the booth, where we find Mark with an old friend.

Mark: You are witnessing the unadulterated enthusiasm of a capacity crowd here in Boston as we are now at the midpoint of the final season of Future Shock. Hello, fans. I’m Mark, alongside probably my best friend in the world, Lyn Dallins. And Lyn, we got a whole lot to come tonight. An Unlikely Allies tag match when Kaylee Clarke teams with Kimberly Aries to face Chrysta and Andi Takata in our main event, for one!

Lyn: This is going to be one of the strangest cue ups you’ll ever see and I’m not entirely sure if one or both of these teams don’t implode. You know in ring, even the slightest accident turns things down right unpleasant.

Mark: Not to mention the Season 19 Champion Anna Giovanna is here as well, and she’ll be squaring off against the “Modern Day Amazon” Rhea Laskaris in a battle of punching power against raw power! Who’s got the advantage there?

Lyn: Say what you will about Miss Laskaris but that woman could carve a swathe of destruction wherever she goes with her legs alone. Anna wants to beat all that power, she’s going to have to use all her speed and then some. For her season, Anna was among the heaviest and strongest of her peers, but this round she’s got to make use of footwork and technique because Rhea has her in spades on power.

Mark: We are also expecting to find out who attacked Ashleigh Powell recently as well. The Director of Future Shock said either they would reveal themselves before the show is over tonight….or he would! We don’t know when that’s gonna take place, it could happen anytime. What do you make of Adam’s ultimatum? He says he knows who it is!

Lyn: Smart play by Grant here, and it’s just a means of flushing them out. They show up, or he can have Ashleigh go find them herself.

Mark: Let’s get things started, and head up to the ring for action. Take it away, Herbie!



The cameras head to the ring as the crowd shows enthusiasm as Herbie begins with a smile on his face.

Herbie: The following contest is scheduled for one fall to a finish!

“Welcome Home” by Coheed & Cambria begins to play throughout the center as Rhea steps out from the back and heads towards the ring. The crowd gives her no support at all as the boos rumble through the Center. The Amazon shows a bit of disdain for the crowd before she steps through the ropes, and cracks her knuckles.

Herbie: Introducing first from Tripoli, Greece….she is the “Modern Day Amazon” RHEA LASKARIS!!!

Mark: There’s no love in the Future Shock Center for Rhea Laskaris! And judging by that look, I don’t think she cares anymore what the fans think! After what happened to her manager recently, I suspect she’s in a foul mood and is gonna take it out on Anna tonight.

Lyn: She was a favorite of many everywhere once. Women wanted to be her, men wanted either to be with her or get lift tips from her.

The fans get much louder as “Never Gonna Get It” by Sean Biggs featuring Akon & Topic begins to play. Anna emerges from the back, throwing a few shadow punches before she heads towards the ring. She greets a few fans on the way before she climbs into the ring, and plucks her mouth guard into place. She grits her teeth as the camera shows what’s written on the guard, “All Gods Fall”.

Herbie: And her opponent, she is the Season 19 Future Shock Champion! Fighting out of San Diego, California, please welcome…..ANNA GIOVANNA!!!

Mark: Anna Giovanna has been nothing but impressive since she came through the doors of Future Shock, and has continued to get better and better! But you can tell by that look that she is all business here tonight. She knows who’s standing in front of her, Lyn.

Lyn: There’s an unbridled, unshaking confidence in that woman, Mark. I swear she’s like the lovechild of of a wicked tryst between Mirko Filipović and Rin Nakai.

Referee Kevin Fisk called for the bell as Anna barely had time to get her hands up before Rhea went totally aggressive. The Amazon was already halfway to her before the bell rang and started firing hard lefts and rights, with Anna putting her hands up to try to deflect them. Rhea did manage to get a couple past her defense, which was enough to send Anna back into the corner. Laskaris lowered her fists, and began to fire uppercuts into Anna’s body with repeated shots, causing the blonde to double over before Rhea hammered clubbing blows down across her back to drive her to her knees. The Amazon continued to pound on her back before she pulled her up by the hair, only for Anna to surprise her with an uppercut to the chin that she didn’t see coming. Rhea stumbled backwards a couple steps before Anna started firing back with combinations to the Amazon’s body. The fans were solidly behind the Season 19 Champion as she grabbed Rhea’s arm and went to send her for the ride. But Laskaris moved one step and planted her foot, and turned back with a vicious elbow strike to the jaw that wobbled Anna followed by a short arm clothesline that put her on the canvas.

Mark: I had a feeling Rhea was going to come full tilt here tonight, and did she ever! Laskaris is a powerhouse, and I don’t care how good you are. You’re not going to take a few shots from that woman, and it not slow you down, Lyn.

Lyn: I don’t know many wrestlers who could and especially this early in the game? Your only hope would have been to outpower her straight up yourself.

Anna rolled to her stomach to start to get up before Rhea drove a stomp into her lower back to put her back down. The brunette measured an elbow and found the mark in Anna’s back before dropped a knee into the same spot. Giovanna started to try to head to the ropes, but Rhea pulled her back by her feet, and planted her own feet into the back of Anna’s knees, grabbed her chin and fell backwards into a seated surfboard that almost bent Anna backwards. The blonde’s body bowed backwards as Rhea pulled on her chin with her legs fully stretched out with her feet pressed against Anna’s thighs.

Mark: Look at that, Rhea with that seated bow and arrow submission! Your back isn’t designed to bend that way, and Anna is in a world of pain right now.

Lyn: Well, I imagine there’s a story of ancient Greece and the use of bows and arrows. I believe Heracles’ follower Philoketes had one...?

Rhea pulled back on her chin as Anna’s head was almost all the way facing Rhea’s face as she sat on the mat. The referee moved down into position to ask Anna if she wanted to submit. But the blonde gave a very clear answer to that. Her face grimaced in obvious pain, Anna reached up and began to prise Rhea’s hands apart under her chin. She didn’t have much success until she got one of Rhea’s fingers into her mouth and bit into it. This time, Rhea shouted in pain before she let Anna go, and pulled her hand free. The Amazon shook that same hand in pain as she got to one knee, glancing over angrily towards Anna who had began to move towards the ropes and favoring her back for obvious reasons.

Mark: It wasn’t pretty, but that’s definitely one way to break that hold. Anna with a shark bite on Rhea’s index finger, and that’s one part of her body that may not be as muscled as the rest of her.

Lyn: Got the job done to say the least but Rhea looks more irritated than anything else.

Rhea got to her feet, measuring Anna as she used the ropes to pull herself upwards. The Amazon charged forward with a boot aimed for the side of her head, but Anna dropped back down and Rhea’s leg went over the middle rope. She planted it on the apron before she completely lost her balance. Anna made back it up to her feet behind Rhea before she delivered a chop block into the back of her knee. Laskaris got her other leg back in the ring right before it, and stumbled forward after it connected. Anna rose back up as Rhea turned to face her, delivering a palm thrust into her throat that choked Laskaris before Anna opened up with those punches again. She began to fire jabs from both hands, lefts and rights to the body, peppering in a few uppercuts to push her back into the corner. The fans came to life for her as Anna decked Rhea backwards, climbed the middle rope, raised her fist and started driving punches down into her face with the fans counting along to ten!

Mark: Anna says if Rhea wants to trade punches, she’s happy to oblige her! And the Season 19 Champion is just pasting Rhea with those hard shots right to her dome!

Lyn: Her arms *ARE* long enough to box with God!

Anna took an extra shot for eleven before she left Rhea out of the corner. Laskaris dropped to her hands and knees, giving Anna an opening to use the middle rope to fall backwards into a back splash to send Rhea the rest of the way down. She rolled to her feet again, once more reaching for her hurt back as she saw Rhea starting to get up. Anna grabbed her head to pull it down into a Muay Thai clinch before she began to fire knees into her face repeatedly. At least six shots connected before Anna took off for the far side. Rhea started to sit up on her knees before Anna connected with a knee trembler to her ear that planted her face down on the canvas again. Anna quickly rolled her from the corner away from the ropes into a cover as the referee dropped down to make the count.

Lyn: And she mixes it with vicious knee shots followed by that lifting knee that... Ooh, I think that might have done some damage to Rhea’s equilibrium.

ONE!!!

TWOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

T-NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Rhea got her shoulder up just after the two as the referee held up two fingers. Anna started to get back up, taking a moment to collect herself and again rub at her lower back. She pulled Rhea up, only for the Amazon to surprise her and scoop her over her shoulders and quickly deposit her with a Samoan drop before both women lay on the canvas.

Mark: Rhea with a well executed Samoan drop there, and now both women are down. They have definitely been giving each other all they can ask for out there.

Both women began to get back up, only Rhea was up a touch faster. And as Anna was up to her hands and knees, Rhea had already gotten back up and used a curb stomp to the back of Anna’s head to drive her face into the mat. She measured for just a half second before she left her feet, driving a double stomp into Anna’s lower back. Dragging her back towards the center of the ring, Rhea dropped to a seat behind Anna as she sat up. Laskaris wrapped her legs around Anna in a tight body scissors before she locked her ankles. Laskaris used those powerful legs and began to squeeze the body scissors as hard as she could.

Lyn: I have been told some men and women would love to be between those legs. ...I have to ask if they all have a death wish.

Mark: Rhea is gonna crack Anna’s ribs if she has her way about it, and Giovanna is in serious serious trouble the longer this is applied.

Anna’s face showed the pain her body was feeling as Rhea squeezed her legs together. The blonde tried to prise her arms between those legs, but had little luck thanks to the tightness of the hold. Rhea’s face gritted as she pushed up on her hands to try to increase the pressure as Anna shouted in pain. Fisk asked her if she wanted to submit, but Giovanna shook her head without fail. Rhea told her to quit, but Anna wasn’t listening and instead grabbed both of her feet to try to pull them apart. This was slightly more successful until Rhea crashed a forearm into her back, causing her to let go and have to start all over again.

Lyn: Nasty forearm shiver there as Anna was actually powering out of Rhea’s grip...

Mark: There are creatures in the Amazon who know how Anna feels right now right before an anaconda squeezes the life out of their body!

Anna ran her fingernails down her face, trying to block out the pain before she fired a backfist into Rhea’s head. That stunned the Amazon, and Anna fired a second and a third. And it worked well enough for Anna to be able to unfasten Rhea’s ankles and free herself. She crawled forward, clutching her ribs as Rhea started to get back up to her feet behind her. Anna got to her feet near the ropes as Rhea charged forward. The blonde used the middle rope for a springboard into a forearm smash that rocked Laskaris backwards when she ran into it. The fans in the Center began to chant Anna’s name as she fought back to her feet through the pain.

Mark: Rhea ran right into that forearm from Anna, and it definitely stunned her. You can hear these fans in the Center who are solidly behind her, trying to will her forward through the pain!

Lyn: It looks to be quite a rallying cry and she’s getting back up!

Rhea shook off the cobwebs and came forward at Anna again, only for the blond to deliver a palm strike right into her face! Laskaris staggered and fell to her knees before Anna took off towards the ropes. She used them for a springboard again into a crossbody that put Rhea down on the mat finally. The strawberry blonde started to pull herself together more, heading to the corner where she began to climb. She peered between her legs a moment and came off with a split-legged moonsault that landed perfectly onto the Greek beauty! Anna hooked the far leg for the cover as the referee slid into position to make the count.

Mark: Anna with a moonsault, and that could be the end!

ONE!!

TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

THRE-NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Rhea rolled her shoulder before the three count, causing Fisk to remind Anna it was just two. The fans began to get louder for her as she crawled to the ropes, and began to get back up again and still favoring her back.

Lyn: Anna’s spine has not forgotten the damage and it’s not letting her either but it looks like the Modern Day Amazon is pulling herself back up and--

Giovanna took off towards the far side ropes as Rhea started to get up. And as she approached and left her feet, Rhea snapped her arms around her waist and delivered a devastating spinebuster and immediately planted Anna on the canvas into a cover!

Lyn: --vicious spinebuster to that young knockout kid!

ONE!!

TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-NO!!

Just as the referee’s hand was about to touch for the third time, Anna shot her shoulder up. Rhea shook her head and started to get back to her feet, clearly the worse for wear before she moved towards the ropes and gave the sign for the scissor kick.

Mark: You know what’s coming! Rhea’s looking for that one kick that will put Anna’s lights out once and for all!

Lyn: We have seen victim after victim of this this and will Anna be added to the list tonight!

Anna started to get up as Rhea charged forward, looking for the kick. But the blonde ducked her head, and as Rhea spun back to face her, Anna unloaded with multiple body blows in rapid succession. She aims for her head, but Rhea ducks to block it. Anna dropped down and sprung up with a massive uppercut right on Rhea’s chin that dropped the Amazon like a rock!!

Mark: That’s the GAZELLE PUNCH!! She calls it COIPO MORTALE!!

Lyn: Olympus hasn’t fallen tonight but death has come to Athena!

Anna dove across her for the cover, hooking both legs this time as the referee moved in for the count. The fans came to their feet to count along.

ONE!!!

TWOOOOOOOOOOO!!

THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!

Fisk called for the bell as the fans roared in approval. Anna sat up, once again clutching her back as she stumbled to her feet. The referee raised her hand in victory.

Lyn: Dear God what a match and what a damn knockout!

Herbie: The winner of this match………..ANNA GIOVANNA!!!!

Mark: With her back clearly in a lot of pain still, Anna Giovanna fought through it and is leaving the Center tonight with her hand raised high! Lyn, that Gazelle Punch has dropped more than one since Anna came here!

Lyn: And I can bet before this year is over it will claim drop a champion for the three count as well.

A smile came over her face after she plucked the mouth guard out, while she listened to the roar of the fans in the Center. She rolled out to the floor, leaning against the barricade as the fans behind her patted her on the shoulder and one ruffled her hair which only made the smile grow wider. From there, we head back to Mark & Lyn.

Mark: Rhea came with an excellent strategy, and she seemed hellbent on trying to make Anna quit tonight at Future Shock. But Anna can pull that Gazelle Punch out of nowhere, and no one knows that better than Rhea.  You just know which two women watched that match with an eagle eye...or they better have!

Lyn: If I’m Bianca Salvador or Mallory Bennett I am asking myself in every which way HOW that Gazelle Punch is going to be dealt with.

Mark: Anna’s next big date is Future Shock Redemption in a huge triple threat with Mallory Bennett and Bianca Salvador! And I look forward greatly to that.

Lyn: As we all are. As it stands, Miss Giovanna is the woman to beat in that match as neither woman has been able to put her down in one-on-one competition. They might be all now, pulling at their hair trying to decide just WHAT it may take.

Mark: Coming up next is a tag team contest of great intrigue to me as Andi Takata teams up with Chrysta to face Kaylee Clarke and Kimberly Aries. The history between the BSX and the Change of Heart is well documented as recently as Chaos Theory, and we can’t forget Kaylee did a number on Aries’ ankle in the battle royal on a recent edition of this very show. Lyn, I’m not looking for a lot of tag team continuity on either side tonight.

Lyn: I want to believe this might be a different case Mark, just because of wanting to impress for the faithful.

As they speak, the cameras return to the ring as the four women are stepping inside to plenty of noise from the crowd in the Center. And when Lyn finishes his thought, Herbie goes from there as he is already in the ring.



Herbie: The following tag team contest is scheduled for one fall!

He turns to Kaylee and Kimberly, who seem to be getting along fairly well as they discuss a a bit of match strategy till they hear their names from the ring announcer.

Herbie: In this corner, we have Kimberly Aries and Kaylee Clarke….TEAM KIMLEE!!!

Lyn: Well... They seem to at least be sort of on the same page it looks like.

Mark: Playing the Ninja Turtles can be a bonding experience, but going by what I saw in their video for this match, these two seem to be on the same page with no hard feelings.

The girls acknowledge the fans before the camera switches to the other team, with Chrysta looking a fair bit more tense than the smiling Andi.

Herbie: And their opponents, she is the co-holder of the FFW Tornado Tag Titles! This is CHRYSTA!! And her partner from the Burning Star Express….ANDI TAKATA!!!

Mark: While there may be mutual respect with these two women, something tells me that Chrysta isn’t fond at all of Andi and the feeling may be quite mutual, Lyn.

Lyn: I mean their two teams have had been at each other’s necks but personally? I want to root for the FSX. Now trending worldwide, #FreezingStarExpress

As Fisk calls for the bell and Andi heads towards the corner, Chrysta glances over to see her before Kaylee and Kimberly chop block both of her legs to take her down. The champion lands on her back before the two grab each leg and use a wishbone by jerking them apart before Kaylee drops an elbow into her chest. Aries exits the ring as Kaylee pops up, delivers another elbow into her chest again. As Chrysta starts to sit up, the former Television Champion connects with a hard front kick right into her chest once more before she hits the near side ropes and flattens her with a low dropkick.

Mark: And so it begins! Kaylee and Aries are definitely working a little smoother together here in the opening moments, much to the Tornado Tag Champion’s chagrin.

Lyn: A want and a will to win it seems, and that was quite the nasty wishbone there.

Kaylee pulled her back to her feet, and whipped her into her own team’s corner. Chrysta struck hard as Kaylee came in behind her with a splash to her back before tagging in Aries. The Hawaiian stepped through the ropes before both women scooped her and delivered a stalling vertical suplex that drove her into the canvas. Clarke rolled out to her corner as Kimbo hit a double knee drop into her chest when she tried to sit up before she quickly hooked the far leg for the cover. Fisk dropped into position to make the count

Lyn: The team continuity, My God... And there’s the cover again!

ONE!!!

TWO!!!!

As the two came down, Chrysta kicked out. Aries got back to her feet, hooking both of Chrysta’s feet under her arms and catapulted her back into the same corner with velocity. And before the champion could turn back, a big boot into the back of her head connected as Kimberly tagged Kaylee back into the ring.

Mark: You know, I’m not too big to admit when I’m wrong. And…..this team is working FAR better than I thought they would. And I’m sure Chrysta and Andi would agree.

Lyn: I don’t think they’d be particularly happy about it.

Kaylee stepped back as Kimbo sat Chrysta up on the top turnbuckle. Clarke got behind her, and dropped her straight back to the canvas with a back suplex. As Chrysta held the back of her head, Kaylee wasted no time before she bounced off the near side ropes and dropped a knee into her head after that. Clarke tagged Aries back in before both women grabbed Chrysta’s arms and legs on either side of her and threw her into the air, only for her to fall right back down with a hard thud into the canvas. Kaylee grabbed her legs and rolled over the top of her with a cover before the referee moved into position to make the count!

Lyn: They are just... Vicious in that ring tonight, picking Chrysta apart here and keeping so much ring presence.

ONE!!!

TWOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

T-!!!!!!!!!!!

Chrysta got her shoulder up again as Kaylee nipped up to her feet, and made another tag to Aries. The big Hawaiian stepped back into the ring, pulling Chrysta up and shoving her into he corner before she planted a boot against her throat with one foot as she leaned against the top rope. She held it for just a scant few seconds as the referee counted, only for Chrysta to stagger out of the corner and get dropped with a vicious belly to belly suplex from Aries! As Chrysta reeled on the canvas, Aries got back to her feet….and made the tag again to Kaylee. But instead of coming in the usual way, Aries grabbed the top rope and slingshotted Kaylee over it into cross body splash on Chrysta before she left the ring.

Mark: I’ll be honest with you, Lyn. I had absolutely no idea that we’d be seeing ALL of this from these two! I’m about ready to sponsor them for a tag title shot right now at this rate!

Lyn: Like I said earlier, you’d be surprised what people will and can do to make sure that they move further along in an event like Future Shock.

Kaylee seemed quite happy with how it all was going, by the look on her face. And when she leaned down to grab Chrysta, the Tornado Tag Champion surprised her with a shot right in the mouth that stunned her briefly. Chrysta rolled to her stomach and tried to get to her feet before Kaylee went for a big elbow to her back, only for her to roll out of the way and Kaylee hit the mat instead. Chrysta got back to her feet finally, looking just a little bit annoyed now (not to mention pretty beat up). She grabbed Kaylee’s arm and jerked her to her feet before firing a hard front kick right into her chest. Clarke didn’t let go of her hand as Kaylee leaned over in pain, only to suffer another one Chrysta’s snapping kicks into her chest and another and another and another and another before she jerked her forward into a sidewalk slam. Chrysta sat on the canvas, still clearly in a bit of pain but looking none too amused as she glared back to Aries briefly and then back to Kaylee.

Mark: I think Chrysta’s had about enough of what was starting to turn into a rout by her opponents. I think it gets to a point where you start to get a little tired of being beat on, Lyn.

Lyn: Well we do do it for a living but... Better to do the beating off than getting beaten on....................Wait.

Chrysta pulled Kaylee back to her feet before she hooked her head, and used a grapevine for her leg into a fisherman’s suplex that was then turned into a pinning predicament. Fisk slid right into position to make the count.

ONE!!!

TWOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

T-!!!!!!!!!!!!

Kaylee kicked her leg free right after the two before Chrysta rolled over the top of her, grabbed her by the head and began to drive her own head into Kaylee’s with repeated headbutts

Mark: Kaylee likes that fisherman suplex herself, and found her way out of it. Look at those rapid-fire headbutts right into Clarke’s face.

Lyn: You know that old saying about using your head.

She climbed back to her feet, pulling her by the arm to a neutral corner before she climbed up and started to walk down the top rope before finishing with Old School to drive Kaylee back into the canvas again.

Mark: Chrysta walks that top rope like nobody’s business, and sometimes I have trouble just staying on the sidewalk.


Lyn: Down goes The Crowned and Chrysta looking back at her partner to make a tag.

Chrysta pulled back up by the arm again, jerking her forward into a backbreaker across the champion’s knee. She headed towards her team’s corner as Andi was busy trying to rally the crowd with her back to the ring. Kaoru, who was on the floor, slapped her on the thigh and told her to turn around. And as soon as she did, Chrysta made the tag to Andi. Andi didn’t come in through the ropes for climbing up to the top, and then falling down with a diving headbutt into Kaylee’s chest. Andi then grabbed her feet and applied an inverted Boston crab as she leaned over Kaylee’s back by pulling on her legs. The Canadian grimaced in pain, but she wasn’t too far from the ropes and managed to get her hand around the bottom rope.

Lyn: ...I’m sure somewhere my ex-wife is giddy about seeing one of her favorite maneuvers coming into play. Then she might try and sue Andi for infringement...

Mark: Someone will have to tell me one day if that move hurts more the way she was doing it or the traditional way it’s usually applied.

Takata released the hold, and took off towards the far side ropes as Kaylee was about to get back to her feet. The space alien left her feet after the rebound into a codebreaker that spiked Kaylee back on the mat. The blue-haired princess shot the half and went for the cover as Fisk dropped down to make the count.

Lyn: Double knee facebreaker and there’s the pin!

ONE!!!

TWOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

THR-NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

Kaylee kicked out just after the two as Andi got back to her feet. Clarke started to move towards her corner, crawling hand over and hand before Andi cut her off with a baseball slide into her ribs that sent her rolling into the other direction.

Mark: We’re not seeing as many frequent tags as we did a little earlier from her opponents, but I’d say Andi and Chrysta are maintaining the advantage well for a team that has had as many battles as they have had in the past few months.

Lyn: One could argue that they have just as much continuity as Kimlee but they’re playing the long game here. Letting the other do what they have to, not stepping on each other’s toes or going in expecting to have a great deal of chemistry.

Andi pulled Kaylee towards the ropes and draped her across the middle to hang over it. The space princess took off for the far side, and came back with a baseball slide under the bottom rope before landing on her feet on the floor, just to snap Kaylee’s head back with a superkick into her face. The brunette collapsed to the canvas immediately as Andi dove under the bottom rope back into the ring for the cover.

Mark: Did you hear the snap off that superkick right into Kaylee’s face?! Jesus Christ! I think Takata’s got it right here!!

ONE!!!

TWOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

THR-NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Aries made the save with a stomp to the back of Andi’s head before she exited the ring again. The space alien got back to her feet, looking back at Aries for a moment as Kaylee started to try to get her wits about her. Chrysta shouted at Andi to keep her eyes on Clarke, and as Takata turned around and reached down to grab her, Kaylee grabbed her head and surprised her with a stunner that sent Andi backwards onto the canvas. The former Television Champion sat up and leaned over, trying to pull herself together as quickly as she could as Andi was also trying to get her bearings.

Lyn: Three-quarter facelock jawbreaker for those who like the names broken down and down goes Andi!

Kaylee rolled to her knees, still the worse for wear as she finally got back to her feet and started to head towards her corner somewhat shakily. She was about to make the tag before Chrysta came back in, and charged across with a clothesline that sent Aries off apron to the floor. But the Hawaiian landed on her feet on the floor as Chrysta had already turned to head back to her corner. Kimbo slid into the  ring as Chrysta turned back, only to walk into a goozle from Aries. Andi went to help before Kimbo grabbed her too, and with a loud thud, the Hawaiian snapped off a double chokeslam of both women that brought the crowd to its feet. Aries left the ring long enough for Kaylee to make the tag, and let her back in legally.

Mark: Chrysta was trying to stop the tag, and...I think it just pissed the big Hawaiian off! Double chokeslam from Aries, and now Kaylee has a chance to recuperate!

Lyn: That woman will throw some weight around when she has to. Her weight, your weight, whoever!

Aries leaned down to grab Chrysta as she was trying to leave the ring, but Andi had gotten back up and jumped onto her back. Aries stood back up instead and reached behind her to grab Andi by the head instead. She pulled her forward over her shoulder before taking off for the corner with a vicious Snake Eyes that smacked Andi’s face off turnbuckle. Takata staggered out of the corner before Aries turned on her heel with a spinning roundhouse kick to her jaw that dropped Andi!

Mark: I’ll tell you what, you don’t want to irritate Kimberly Aries! Takata may have some floating molars right there, and we got a cover!

Indeed we did as Aries dropped down to make the cover, hooking ANdi’s leg as the referee slid into position to make the count.

ONE!!!!

TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-NOPE!!

Lyn: So close but so far!

The fall was broken up by Chrysta, who dragged Aries by the leg off the cover. Kimbo got back to her feet, the two staring at one another before they started throwing punches at each other. Aries was beginning to get the better of the exchange before a short knee caught Chrysta well enough for Aries to use a neckbreaker to put her back down. She climbed back to her feet with her back to Andi...who was starting to climb up to the top rope.

Lyn: Royalty looks out for royalty there, as the Ice Queen saves her Space Princess counterpart but pays for it... Where’s Takata going!?

And as Aries turned, Andi came off the top rope with a hurricanrana. And as she wrapped her legs around her head to bring her down, Aries grabbed her by the thighs, stepped over both arms.

Mark: ANDI’S FELT THIS BEFORE!!

Lyn: Here it... Comes!

As Kimbo turned to execute the Styles Clash, Chrysta caught her with a flash kick right to the face! The fans came to their feet as Andi freed her arms and rolled through into a victory roll!

Lyn: COUNTER! COUNTER! TAKATA WITH THE COUNTER AND THE ROLL THROUGH!

ONE!!!

TWOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Kaylee came across to stop the cover, only for Chrysta to mow her down with a running shoulder tackle.

THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!

Fisk called for the bell as Andi broke the pin attempt, looking at first surprised and then...quite happy as she got to her feet. The referee raised her and Chrysta’s hands in victory.

Lyn: The Freezing Star Express. Trend it worldwide people, this happened.

Herbie: Here are your winners…..ANDI TAKATA and CHRYSTA…...THE FREEZING STAR EXPRESS!!!

Mark: How about that?! I thought Aries was about to drop Andi for the second time with that move, but Chrysta had a little fire in the tank!

Lyn: Just enough fire it seemed and... Chrysta wanting to seemingly bury the hatchet for the night after that war.

Chrysta offered her partner a handshake, but instead Andi jumped onto her into a hug that could have been mistaken for a GLOMP. Kaoru rolled into the ring, giving both women some praise before prying Andi off Chrysta.

Mark: Kaylee and Kimbo showed better continuity than a lot of normal teams I’ve seen, but some quick thinking from one of these two tag team specialists made all the difference!

Lyn: Team Kimlee might want to give some consideration to hunting after some tag titles to be truthful, I’d like to see them do a match proper with the BSX or CoH.

Mark: Andi and Chrysta worked well together, despite their differences but it just wasn’t meant to be tonight for Team KimLee. I don’t envy our fans, who have a tough call to make tonight in the poll. No one really did anything that deserved elimination in my view, and everyone gave an awesome performance. I couldn’t tell you who I’d vote for, because I have no idea.

Lyn: This is when we get to the nitty gritty I’m afraid. Whoever they vote for is a tough less because all these women deserve to move forward.

And as Andi celebrated in the ring, we cut to a video package of the recent events surrounding Ashleigh Powell and Katie Day. Afterwards, we go back to the live show.

Mark: Fans, make sure you head to the website and cast your vote for who you feel should be eliminated. You got four choices to make, and I don’t envy you a bit this week. But Lyn, I’m getting word that Adam is on his way out. We haven’t found out who attacked Ashleigh Powell to this point, but we are about to...one way or another.

Lyn: Adam has made clear if they don't reveal themselves, he will.

The cameras go back to the ring now as we see the Future Shock Director making his way towards it in a suit, as usual. Adam heads up the steps and takes the microphone from Herbie with thanks before he is joined by Ashleigh Powell, who gets quite a positive response. Adam says something in her ear before he turns back to the crowd.

Adam: Did you all enjoy the show tonight?

The fans in the Center give a very positive response before he smiles and continues.

Adam: That’s great, and I’m glad to hear it . Last week, I made a promise. I said that either the person who attacked this woman right here would make herself known. Or I would, and then fine her heavily and then turn it over to law enforcement. I’ve been patiently waiting in the back, watching the show like all of you and nothing. And I think I speak for Ashleigh when I say the wait is over.

He glances over to Ashleigh, who nods in agreement as she stands one one side of the ring as Adam is in the center.

Adam: I know who you are. Not only did I talk with the person who identified you as the one who bought the Louisville Slugger, but I also asked our ring crew who helped put the ring together the week you poured water on the turnbuckles and loosened them to make them slippery, hoping to seriously injure both Ashleigh and Katie. So now’s the time. You come out….or I let law enforcement take over from here after I fine you five thousand dollars!

Lyn: And they can spend a few nights in the slammer, before a judge gets involved and who knows what.

Mark:

Adam looks around the Center as the fans do the same. Ashleigh moves closer to Adam, looking in the opposite direction from where he’s looking. Adam moves towards the ropes next, still looking throughout the Center before he shakes his head.

Adam: Alright. I guess you don’t believe me. So I’m happy to prove you wrong. Ashleigh, the woman who attacked you...the one who used a bat on you...who tried to break your neck with those turnbuckles a few weeks ago, well it’s--

The lights in the Center blink out from there. Adam stops talking as a buzz begins to move around the fans.

Lyn: Well... Who is it? Anyone see? Lights just cut.

Mark: I don’t like this at all….

When the lights come back up, Adam and Ashleigh are looking out in the crowd on either side of the ring before the fans spot a woman standing in the ring between with them...with another Louisville Slugger in her hands. And as soon as both Ashleigh and Adam turn back towards the ring, they see her standing in the ring. With shoulder length neon red hair stood….

Mark: KIMMI HATE!!

Lyn: Doesn't this woman have enough enemies!?

Ashleigh went right into attack mode, charging at Hate with a clothesline. But Hate ducked under the shot. Powell nearly ran into Adam, and Kimmi hit her with a dropkick that sent her head first into Adam. He fell backwards through the ropes, and as Ashleigh went to see if he was alright, Kimmi tapped the bat against her boots and began to wind up a shot with the bat!

Lyn: Kimmi is looking to knock Powell’s head all the way out of the arena!

Mark: She was the one Ashleigh beat first….and she hasn’t forgotten it! Hate’s been carrying a grudge about that ALL this time! Turn around, Ashleigh!

Powell turned in time just as Kimmi instead drove the bat into her stomach to double her over. The redhead teed up another shot, this time aiming for her head before Katie came charging out of the back and a brunette dove over the barricade and hit the ring next. Kimmi immediately dove out of the ring to the floor.

Mark: Here comes Katie….and that’s KENZIE RYDELL!! She just signed with FFW, and is one of Ashleigh’s closest friends!

Lyn: and Kimmi could give a damn less who she is, as long as she's got that equalizer in hand!

Kimmi waved up to the two girls in the ring as Kenzie went to check on Ashleigh, who was now back up and about to go after her as Kimmi had the bat cocked and ready. Powell reached through the ropes to grab her, and Kimmi gave a wild swing with the bat towards her head before Kenzie and Katie pulled her out of the way to keep from getting hit.

Lyn: They look like they're trying to figure out how to get their hands on Hate here, and Powell most of all just wants a piece of her!

Mark: Kimmi wants nothing to do with all three of those ladies...even with that bat! Adam got knocked to the floor, but we got three women looking for a fight in the ring.

Kimmi blew them a kiss as she backed up the aisle to the back with the bat over her shoulder. She stopped herself a moment, tapping her chin and heading back towards the ring again.

Mark: She really is crazy, Kimmi’s going back!

Lyn: ...I wouldn't believe it if I didn't see it.

Kenzie and Ashleigh sat on opposite sides of the rope, waving her back in before Kimmi got near ringside and looked around at the fans as they wanted to see her go into the ring. But she stopped herself a moment before she was soon joined in the aisle by the Future Shock Champion as Isis appeared and moved behind her tag team partner.

Lyn: ...And I still don't! Kimmi ain't crazy! She's just crazy prepared, and there is the Titaness behind her!

Kimmi looked up over her shoulder at Isis with a smile before the redhead glanced towards the entrance into the center and there was the third member of the Ascension as Valentina headed towards her team with an arrogant look on her face as she stood next to her bodyguard and Kimmi.

Mark: And Valentina makes three! I didn’t even know Lozano and Isis were here! And we got a stare down as all three Ascension members are here on the floor...and Katie, Kenzie,and Ashleigh are in the ring. I have a feeling this thing is about to kick off right now!

Lyn: It looks like the Ascension have made a brand new set of enemies

Mark: The atmosphere is thick, and Ascension are all in the Center tonight...and in the ring is Kenzie, Katie and Ashleigh Powell. Kimmi’s still got that damn bat….

Security ushered out of the back, getting in between the women in the ring and Ascension on the floor as the fans chanted “LET THEM FIGHT!” Repeatedly. Ashleigh looked to Kenzie and Katie, each of them giving her a nod before all three hit the floor and went after Ascension as security tried to stop them with Adam directing traffic!

Lyn: And the fight is deterred! These three girls want them some of the Ascension, especially the resident shit-stirrer of the three!

Mark: We got a powderkeg about to go off, and we’re out of time! There’s about to be a massive brawl in the aisle if security can’t get control of this! What a situation!

As the two teams looked across at one another with a wide grin on Kimmi’s face, Future Shock faded off the air.
