Location: Saitama Super Arena in Saitama, Japan
March 26, 2022


The show opens with the FFW logo seen on a turnbuckle. Then we see a close up shot of the eyes of Savannah Star. As the shot pulls back, we find her unmercifully raining shots and kicks on a sparring partner. She only stops long enough to see a Kelly Kincaid poster with the FFW Championship over her shoulder, and starts beating her sparring partner again. “One of a Kind” begins to play as performed by Breaking Point

I've got that feeling deep inside
Well what it is I don't know
My vengeance starts to change
My mind gets filled with rage
I raise my fists up to the sky


Next we look over the shoulder of Kyle Kilmeade as he watches Stacey Sky attacking Harley Shannon on a recent edition of Breaking Point. That is until the lights blink, and she finds Rebecka Hate standing behind her. The shot pulls back to see Stacey’s watching the replay on a monitor before putting her foot through it with a superkick. She storms out of the room with Kyle behind her.

The fear I see when I look in your eyes
Makes you believe I'm one of a kind (one of a kind)
The fear I leave in the back of your mind
Makes you believe I'm
One of a kind


A highlight package of the long and illustrious history of Nevaeh Summers winning every title she ever challenged for is shown. All of those memories put a smile on her face until she sees Casey Atherton step forward a few feet behind her with the Evolution Championship. The smile disappears as she spins around and launches towards her.

And Now I feel like I'm alive
Don't know just how I got so low
These voices in my mind
Tell me it's killing time
It is a thrill I can't describe


“Killer B” Bianca Reed is next shown as she stands in the center of the ring amid a booing crowd. With the microphone in hand, she lays out an open challenge for Relentless, which prompts her to look back at the stage when the screen goes to black as the fans come to their feet in a roar.

The fear I see when I look in your eyes
Makes you believe I'm one of a kind (one of a kind)
The fear I leave in the back of your mind
Makes you believe, makes you believe


Then the show goes inside the arena as fireworks erupt from the ring posts and along the rafters. The crowd roars as they see themselves on global television. We see the Relentless logo on the mat as the camera pans the crowd before landing at ringside with Zack and Lexi. 

Zack: Welcome to the Saitama Super Arena! Welcome to a sold out crowd of over 36,000 fans who have packed one of Japan’s largest arenas! And most importantly, welcome to the 10th annual Relentless! Thank you for joining us on FFW All Access! I’m Zack Hudson, and this bombshell to my left is Lexi Carmichael. Welcome to your first FFW Pay Per View!

Lexi: I'm extremely glad to be here, Zack and speaking of bombshells I think we're in for one explosive show tonight!

Zack: 7 matches on the card tonight with titles and grudges to be decided! None are bigger than the FFW Championship when Kelly Kincaid makes her first defense of the title since winning it at Crossed Out against Savannah Star.

Lexi: Kelly waited a long, long time to even get a shot at the FFW Championship so I can imagine she's going to do whatever it takes to keep an iron grip on it.

Zack: The Evolution Championship is on the line as well when Casey Atherton defends against Nevaeh Summers. Nevaeh has won every title she’s ever chased, and tonight could mark her second reign against the loon that has held it now for just over a year.

Lexi: You know the whole roster, if not the world are gonna breathe a collective sigh of relief if Nevaeh dethrones Casey!

Zack: As for grudge matches, we got those too! I’m talking about the No DQ match between “Sensational” Stacey Sky and the recently returned Rebecka Hate! I don’t know what to expect there, but chaos. 

Lexi: This match is just one of the reasons I think we're in for an explosive night… sparks are gonna fly between these two, that's for sure.

Zack: Vivi Traeger has some payback in mind as well. She’ll meet Diamond Steele in a rematch tonight. She sent one hell of a message to Diamond after facing Ruby Steele recently, and I don’t envy the wannabe rock star one bit.

Lexi: Do you think Diamond will actually learn her lesson? Or do you think Vivi's going to need to knock her head against a few walls?

Zack: There’s been one wild tag team melee that occurred the first night that the Wicked Storm had their first official match as part of FFW. What began as a singles match turned into a tag team brawl between them and the Midnight Storm. Storm versus Storm, I’m looking forward to seeing this one. 

Lexi: I'm not even gonna try and pretend to be impartial here, Zack! I'm backing Caitlyn and Mila all the way here.

Zack: That’s not the only tag team match on the card though. Future Shock will be given a global spotlight when the Doomsday Sisters defend their titles against a very impressive Target Acquired. Alessandra and Nadia have been on one hell of a roll, and I think they may start collecting the first of three titles between now and Global Wars.

Lexi: This is going to be a major treat for anyone not already familiar with what the Future Shock roster has to offer. These spotlight matches are a great way for the girls to show a new audience just how good they are.

Zack: And the most curiosity of all has to surround the match with “Killer B” Bianca Reed. She made a successful in-ring return, and laid out an open challenge for tonight. We don’t know who it is. I’ve heard names from Future Shock to unsigned talent from across the wrestling landscape. We’ll find out tonight though.

Lexi: I'm on the edge of my seat for that one, I can't wait to find out who Bianca is going to be coming up against.

Zack: It’s gonna be a wild night, and let’s get it started here on All Access! Let’s send it up to FFW’s radiant ring announcer! It’s all yours, Kat!



 

The camera cut back to a shot of the crowd inside the arena, circling around before focusing in on Kat as she stood in the ring, ready to make the announcements for the first match.

Kat: The opening contest of Relentless is scheduled for one fall to a finish!

I’m not the one who’s so far away when I feel the snakebite enter my veins
Never did I wanna be here again and I don’t remember why I came…


The drumbeat to Godsmack’s “Voodoo” hits and the entrance ramp is bathed in purple light and fog. The top of the ramp fills with smoke, and tall candelabras rise up through the floor, flickering in the light. The lights of thousands of cell phone dot the arena like fireflies, adding to the ambience.

Candles raise my desire, why I’m so far away
No more meaning to my life, no more reason to stay


Vivi Traeger stands perfectly still as she rises up through the floor, a crown of bones and purple roses resting on her head. Around her neck is her black ball python LaCroix, his scales glimmering.

Freezing feeling, breathe in, breathe in…
I’m coming back again…


Reaching the ring, Vivi hands LaCroix off to the ring crew and ascends the stairs, climbing up on one of the turnbuckles. She bends down and then rises up again, throwing her arms out to the sides.

Kat: From New Orleans, Louisiana, she is the Voodoo Queen, the All-Mother, Vivi Traeger!

Basking in the adoration of the crowd, Vivi jumps down from the turnbuckle and sets her crown aside, ready to face her opponent.

Zack: Vivi has waited on this rematch since the night of her FFW roster debut. She got a little payback against Ruby Steele on a recent Breaking Point, but now she has the woman she wants.

Lexi: I’ve got a feeling this isn’t going to be a friendly meeting to say the very least. Diamond may end up regretting her actions from their first meeting. 

Diamond and the Gem Stones begins to blare all across the sound system and as it does we are able to see the likes of the Gem Stones playing on a tron. Ruby, Emerald, and Sapphire are all playing various instruments as we are able to see Diamond Steele emerging from the curtain with a microphone in her hand. She sings as loudly as she can to the sound of boos. Diamond smirks as the constant boos just cause her to sing even louder.

Kat: Ladies and gentlemen making her way to the ring she is…

Diamond smirks as she uses her own microphone to quickly cut off Kat. She proceeds to do her own introduction.

Diamond: Ladies and gentlemen making my way to the ring. Being accompanied by all of my Gem Stones of Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald! I am the SHINING STAR, I AM THE SPARKLING SENSATION, THE SADISTIC SIREN, THE GLITTERING GODDESS, THE SORCERESS OF SUBMISSIONS, THE MISTRESS OF THE MICROPHONE AND THE CONQUERER OF CATCH WRESTLING. Weighing in at 7.5 STONE from LONDON ENGLAND! I AM DIAMOND STEELE!

Diamond stops to take in the boos of the audience. She points to the entrance curtain where Ruby Steele, Sapphire Taylor, and Emerald Mcadams all make their way out to join her. Together they finally make it to the ring. Diamond quickly runs up the ring steps and she grabs the turnbuckle as hard as she can. She immediately leap frogs over the ropes and bounces about before she flips off the booing crowd. She throws the microphone to the side before she cracks a wicked grin. She opens up a pocket mirror and takes a moment to admire how beautiful her hair is as she waits for the match to begin.

Zack: Unfortunately for Vivi though, Diamond has brought along the entire entourage of the Gemstones. I hope they saw what happened to Ruby, because it could be them next if they get involved.

Lexi: C’mon Zack, there’s only one reason she would bring them all with her, and I don’t think it’s just for moral support and cheerleading. 

Malcolm Parks asked both wrestlers if they were ready to begin, getting the okay from Vivi as Diamond continued to  tease her hair with her fingertips, ignoring the referee as she admired herself in the pocket mirror. The referee advanced towards Diamond, waving his hand to get her attention and asked her again if she was ready. This time Diamond rolled her eyes and placed the mirror on the mat before she nodded her head. Parks called for the bell and Vivi darted across the ring…only for Steele to step quickly through the ropes and drop to the floor where she retrieved the mirror and checked her hair again while Parks intercepted the New Orleans wrestler and told her to back up. Traeger reluctantly did so and the official leaned through the ropes, telling Diamond to get back into the ring as her bandmates were clustered around her, helping her with her hair.

Zack: There’s a better time than now to worry about your hair. I’m sure it’s just a tactic to get under Vivi’s skin though. 

Lexi: I say let her do it, she’ll soon learn the error of her ways when she has an even more pissed off Vivi to contend with. 

Parks started the count, getting to four before Diamond was satisfied, handing the mirror to Ruby and began to climb up the ring steps once more. As she reached the apron she told Parks to keep Vivi back on the opposite side of the ring, the official stopping Vivi in her tracks as she strode determinedly towards her opponent, forcing her back across the ring. As Traeger was backed up the musician once more leapfrogged into the ring over the top rope and into the ring where she bounced a couple of times and headed towards the corner, climbing to the middle rope as she threw her hands in the air and got loud boos and jeers from the arena. As she dropped down to her feet, the Voodoo Queen charged her and caught her with a running forearm to the jaw. Another pair of forearms followed that saw Diamond cover up in the corner. Quickly the New Orleans native brought her out of the corner with a Japanese armdrag. 

Zack: Diamond said she came back to FFW because she never made it to the Hall of Fame. She also said during her promo that Vivi was a better wrestler before she got married. So take that for what it’s worth.

Lexi: It’s worth about as much as a chocolate fireguard if you ask me, but what do I know?!

Diamond hit the mat and rolled through to come back to her feet only for Vivi to charge her and leave her feet driving a knee into her jaw as Steele made it to her feet. The musician reeled backwards but only made it two steps before she was sent flying across the ring with a hair beal from the All-Mother. Once more Kate pushed upwards, getting as far as one knee before she caught a running big boot to the jaw from the former Future Shock Champion. It saw the Londoner stagger a step or two before Traeger once again sent her flying across the ring, towards the corner with another hair beal, pulling out a couple of strands of Kate’s hair as she did so. The Musician hit the mat and immediately started to rise, getting her feet underneath her only to catch a shotgun dropkick to the chest that sent the Gemstone falling backwards into the corner.

Zack: Vivi has taken full control of this match. Given the popularity of pop stars in Japan, I guess they aren’t Gemstones fans though. 

Lexi: Can’t say I blame them personally, I know they’re not at the top of any of my playlists. 

Vivi quickly charged her in the corner, driving a raised knee into her midsection before she stepped to the side, holding the top rope and began to fire off a series of stiff kicks into the midsection as the official told her to let her foe out of the corner and started the count. As the official reached four, Vivi fired off a high kick into Diamond’s jaw. Kate stumbled a step out of the corner and was taken down to the canvas with a snapmare. Instantly the Louisiana native started to land a series of rapid fire kicks to her foe’s spine. Five landed before Diamond rolled to the side and began to rise to her feet only for Vivi to drive her face first into the mat with a leg drop bulldog. Immediately the Londoner pushed back up to her knees, only for Vivi to pull her the rest of the way to her feet and crash three ridgehand chops into Steele’s sternum. Each blow caused Kate to take a step backwards before Traeger landed a fourth that caused her opponent to lean back against the ropes. The woman from New Orleans stepped back and took a moment to measure her foe before she stepped up onto the middle rope and delivered an enzuigiri to the side of Diamond’s head, causing her to drop down to one knee.

Zack: Maybe Diamond should have spent more time on the floor getting her hair right, because virtually nothing in the ring has gone that way yet.

Lexi: Vivi’s got a score to settle, and it looks like she’s gonna make sure she gets her money’s worth. 

Diamond pushed back up to her feet but as she did so, Traeger grabbed hold of her head and pushed off against the ring ropes to spike her skull into the mat with a Tornado DDT. Quickly Vivi kipped up to her feet and headed for the ring ropes where she hopped up onto the middle rope and launched herself off into a lionsault before she reached down and hooked the leg for the pinfall.

Lexi: If Diamond is smart she might just take the easy way out here and stay down. 

One…

Two…

Zack: Annoying as she is, it is going to take quite a bit more to keep Diamond down for a three.

Diamond kicked out of the pinfall and rolled to the side where she started to push upwards. As she did so, Traeger was quick to get back to her feet and darted across the ring once more, hitting the ropes and face-planted to the mat as Emerald and Sapphire caught her by the ankles and jerked her out of the ring. Traeger landed on her feet in the midst of the gemstones and immediately became a whirlwind of fists as she spun around and caught Emerald, Sapphire and Ruby with blows to the jaw before repeating the cycle as each one recovered and tried to catch hold of the New Orleans native. As she landed the second blow to Ruby, Vivi turned back to the ring, just as Diamond flew through the ropes with a suicide dive that wiped out Vivi and all three of her bandmates.

Zack: Diamond got Vivi….and all the Gemstones with one shot! I don’t get the sense she gives a damn about anyone but herself anyway.

Lexi: With friends like Diamond, who the hell needs enemies, Zack?!

Quickly Diamond came back to her feet, pulling Vivi up with her immediately slammed her face first into the ringside barricade, the fans booing her loudly as she spun Traeger around and sent her face first into the ring apron before she rolled the Voodoo Queen under the bottom rope and followed in behind her. Vivi was already pulling herself up to her feet but as she did so, the musician stepped forwards and caught her with a kick to the stomach before she grabbed hold of her hair to jerk her downwards into a single knee facebreaker. Steele didn’t release her grip on her opponent’s hair as Traeger tried to step backwards, ignoring the referee’s demands that she do so. Instead the Londoner used her grip to once more drive her opponent face first into the mat with a sit out facebuster. As she landed the move she rolled to her knees, keeping her hands in her hair as she continued to ignore the referee’s instructions and this time started to scrub Vivi’s face against the ring mat. Parks called for the release once more and started the count, getting to four before  Diamond released and rolled backwards to her feet, heading towards her bandmates where she leaned through the ropes to high five all three of them.

Zack: She just mowed them all down a couple minutes ago, but I guess they don’t care about that. Look at all the high fives. Might be just me, but I’d be a little cross.

Lexi: Do we think they have some kind of collective Stockholm syndrome or something? Maybe we should look into finding a couple of support group numbers or something to pass on to them to help them out. 

Vivi was starting to get up and as she did so, Diamond took off towards her and caught her with a running neckbreaker. Quickly Steele rolled on top of her opponent, taking up the mount position and began to fire off right and left hands into her face as the Voodoo Queen tried to cover up. The referee again called for the break and started the count, getting to three before the musician jabbed both of her thumbs into her opponent’s eye sockets and used her grip to bounce the back of Traeger’s skull off the canvas. Popping back up to her feet, Diamond stood over her opponent and raised one hand in the air as she looked up into the rafters, like she was Freddie Mercury. The crowd booed her loudly as she struck the pose and Traeger started to sit up…only for Diamond to drive a stomp down into her chest to send her back to the mat. 

Zack: This is certainly not the time for Diamond’s favorite rock poses, to say the least. 

Lexi: As Forrest Gump’s mama used to say… stupid is as stupid does. 

Steele spun away with a smile on her face and stepped towards the ring ropes, clapping her hands together over her head as she did so, trying unsuccessfully to get the crowd to clap along with her. As she got to the ropes, Vivi was rising back to her feet and Diamond leaned back against them to shoot herself off and caught her foe with a running knee lift to the jaw. As Traeger spun away from her foe, holding her jaw, Diamond slammed on the brakes and spun towards the American, hooking her arms to quickly take her back down to the mat with a Tiger suplex; bridging upwards to make the pin as she landed the move. Parks slid into position and started to make the count.

Zack: Perfectly executed, and Vivi might be in trouble!

One…

Tw-

Lexi: Nah, that was nowhere near enough to keep a pissed off Vivi down. You just know she’s not going to let Diamond get away without at least a bit more punishment. 

Traeger kicked out and Diamond looked up to the referee, giving a little shake of her head as the official showed her the one count but didn’t argue as she pulled Vivi up to her feet then took her straight back down to the canvas with a side Russian leg sweep. Steele rolled over on top of her opponent and started to hammer away at her with forearms to the jaw. Four landed before Vivi managed to escape from under her with a monkey flip. Diamond rolled through and came to her feet, taking off towards the ropes as Vivi came back to a vertical base only for Steele to return and catch her opponent with a spinning heel kick. It saw the Voodoo Queen drop down to her knees for a moment before she pushed back up onto her knees only for Diamond to start to fire off martial arts style kicks into her chest. Vivi continued to rise and as she began to come to her feet, Diamond took off to the ropes once more and this time on her return she sent her opponent down to the canvas with a kitchen sink knee lift that flipped Vivi over and caused her to land in a sitting position on the mat.

Zack: That was a brutal knee to the stomach for Vivi. I hope she had a light dinner before the show.

Lexi: That kind of shot will definitely take the wind out of you real quick. Diamond might just have made herself a big opening here. 

Diamond didn’t waste any time as she dropped down behind her foe and applied a sleeper hold, leaning in as she wrenched on the hold tighter, using her weight to try and make the hold more effective. The referee dropped down asking the New Orleans native if she wanted to quit, getting a ‘No’ as she clawed at her arms. It only prompted Diamond to wrench the hold on tighter, telling Vivi that she should just go to sleep. The referee asked again, getting another ‘No’ and once more Steele wrenched in the hold a little tighter. And started to sing her a ballad as a lullaby. Vivi visibly cringed as Diamond began to sing in her ear; Parks also grimacing a little at the sound of Diamond’s voice and Traeger started to struggle a little more in the hold trying to free herself from the clutches of the Englishwoman. Parks asked her again if she wanted to quit….and looked a little disappointed when she said ‘No’ as they’d have to endure more of the singing. 

Zack: It’s bad enough to be trapped in a hold, but to have your opponent sing off key right in your ear…that’s gotta be the worst.

Lexi: I don’t know, I’d say that would be motivation for Vivi to escape the hold if you ask me. It’s amazing what a little motivation can do in most situations. 

Vivi twisted her body to the side, pushing up on her hand as she did so and pulled herself towards the ropes where she managed to kick out her foot and hook it over the bottom rope. The referee called for the break and started the count. Diamond released the hold and rolled away at four where she pulled Traeger up to her feet and delivered a trio of knife edge chops into her chest, backing her up into the corner. As Vivi’s back hit the turnbuckles, Diamond unloaded on her with four European uppercuts, snapping her head back as she did so. The referee told her to let her opponent out of the corner, using the count and got to four before Diamond dropped back a couple of steps only to step forwards quickly and catch her foe with a yakuza kick to the side of the head. 

Zack: Once you get past all the wannabe rock star garbage, Diamond is and has always been a talented athlete in the ring. Otherwise she wouldn’t be here in FFW.

Lexi: There is nobody in FFW that isn’t talented, but there are certainly some that are more punchable than others. 

Vivi leaned back in the corner against the turnbuckles for a moment before Diamond pulled her out of the corner and straight into an Irish whip across the ring towards the opposite corner. The New Orleans native hit the turnbuckle pads hard and Diamond measured her up for a moment before she charged towards her, lowering her shoulder and catching her in the midsection. Four more shoulder thrusts followed as the official told the Englishwoman to let her opponent out of the corner, reaching four before Diamond acquiesced to the demand and once more pulled the Voodoo Queen into another Irish whip, sending her across the ring into the opposite corner. Again Traeger hit the pads back first and this time Steele took a moment to blow kisses to the crowd before she charged her foe, the Gemstone leaving her feet as she drew near to deliver a leaping clothesline that saw her legs fly through the ropes as it connected, leaving Diamond sat on the middle rope. The musician took a moment to wave to her “adoring fans”...only for the entire crowd to be booing her loudly. Then Steele grabbed hold of her foe and fell backwards looking to land a reverse STO - but only succeeded in landing on her neck and shoulders as Traeger blocked the move by holding onto the top rope.

Zack: That’s what happens when you waste time during a match. Diamond has significant issues with staying on task, doesn’t she?

Lexi: She’s only hurting herself with that lack of focus, literally, because it’s allowing Vivi chance to regroup and do things like she just did. 

Diamond rolled backwards, holding the back of her head as she came to her feet and immediately found herself crashing back down to the canvas courtesy of a slingblade clothesline from the Voodoo Queen. Steele rolled to the side and started back to her feet, getting them underneath her once more but was again immediately sent flying, crash landing onto the canvas thanks to a headscissors takedown. The musician again started to rise to her feet, turning towards Vivi as she did and Traeger skipped forwards and caught her with a savate kick to the underside of the jaw. The Gemstone staggered backwards, fighting for her balance as she held her mouth. Before she found her balance, the Louisiana native lifted her up off her feet and dropped backwards, slamming the musician face first into the mat. As they landed, Traeger rolled backwards, hooking hold of her opponent’s legs as she did and stepped over to apply a Boston crab submission hold, sitting down low to increase the pressure being applied in the hold.

Zack: Vivi’s back in control, and the best part of that is it will stop her from trying to sing again, I think. I’m not sure if she’s ready to submit though.

Lexi: It doesn’t look like she is to me, but you never know, stranger things have happened, Zack. 

The referee immediately dropped down into position to ask for the submission, getting a ‘No’ from Kate as she scrabbled and clawed at the canvas to try and pull herself to the ropes. Vivi leaned backwards in the hold to apply more pressure. Diamond let out a cry of pain and shook her head as the referee asked again before Parks saw Ruby pull herself up on the apron and he went to cut her off. Ruby tried to point something out that she claimed was illegal about the hold to the official, Parks shook his head and told her to get down; the Gemstone continuing to make her argument as Sapphire and Emerald, behind the referee’s back reached in underneath the bottom rope, grabbing hold of one of Diamond’s wrists each and jerked her towards the bottom rope. Steele clutched hold gratefully while the referee  was still arguing with Ruby…but Vivi didn’t need any instructions from the official as she released the hold and immediately skipped towards Ruby, giving the referee a heads up as she did; Parks turning just in the nick of time for Traeger’s boot to fly past his face and catch Ruby flush on the point of the jaw with a superkick. Ruby’s eyes glazed over as she stood on the apron for a moment before she slowly keeled backwards and landed hard on the floor. 

Zack: That’s what you get, Ruby! Vivi is handling the Gemstones all on her own, and you love to see it!

Lexi: You’d think Ruby might be a bit more wary of Vivi after their last meeting… but apparently she’s a slow learner. 

Emerald and Sapphire quickly moved around the ring to check on their fallen bandmate while in the ring, Vivi told Parks she should throw them out and turned her attention back towards Diamond. Quickly Traeger moved towards her opponent as she pulled herself up to her feet with the aid of the ring ropes and as she got near, the Voodoo Queen started to fire off stiff kicks into the London native’s spine. The referee told the former Future Shock Champion to let her foe away from the ropes and was forced to start the count as the New Orleans native continued to land kicks to her lower back only stopping when the referee reached four. Quickly Traeger moved behind her opponent, wrapped her arms around her body and planted her feet as she shoved her into the ropes and used the momentum to slam the guitarist hard into the mat, spine first with a modified German suplex.

Lexi: It shouldn’t really take Vivi to tell the referee how to do their job, but there we have it. If it had been me, I’d have kicked the rest of the Gemstones out at the start. 

Zack: You and me both. They are about as useful as a football bat honestly. They are only here to cause problems, and they do that well.

Diamond’s back arched upwards off the canvas for a moment before she rolled to the side and started to come to her feet only for Traeger to circle around her and catch her with a series of palm strikes to the face. Steele tried to cover up and protect herself as she came to her feet only for Vivi to drive a side kick into her stomach. The musician’s arm immediately went to protect her gut which allowed the Voodoo Queen to deliver a ridgehand chop to Diamond’s throat. Steele dropped down to one knee gagging for air and Vivi immediately grabbed hold of her arm, twisting it around in its socket to lock in an arm wringer before she darted towards the ring ropes and hopped over them, snapping Diamond’s arm over the top rope as she did so, landing on her feet on the floor. Diamond reeled away, holding her arm with a look of pain on her face and started to berate the official for letting her foe use the ropes like that. 

Zack: I don’t know what she’s complaining about. Nothing Vivi did there was illegal. 

Lexi: Since when has that stopped people from complaining? It’s practically a national pastime these days. 

As she did, Emerald and Sapphire left Ruby sitting up against the barricade and started around the ring, heading towards the New Orleans native. Vivi dropped down into a three point stance, though, and as Diamond’s two associates rounded the corner, Traeger exploded forwards into a double version of The Reminder; the clotheslines from Hell flipping them both up and over before they crashed down to the floor. Traeger looked down at them both and gave a shake of her head before she headed back into the ring. As the former Future Shock Champion popped back up to her feet though, Diamond caught her with an eye rake before she started to club away at the side of her head with ferocious right hands before she pushed her back into the ropes and went to send her in for the ride. Immediately Steele slammed on the brakes, jerking her foe back towards her in the Irish whip and used a drop toe hold to send Traeger falling throat first across the middle rope. Quickly Diamond threw herself across her opponent’s back and started to use the rope with her body weight to choke out the Louisiana native as Parks called for the break and started the count.

Zack: I think Diamond is getting a little bit more desperate every few seconds here because she hasn’t been able to put Vivi away as quickly as she’d have preferred.

Lexi: I’m guessing she seriously underestimated just how much of a fight she had on her hands tonight. I’d hope she wouldn’t make that mistake twice, but… I have a feeling I’d be wrong. 

He made it to four before Diamond broke, the Londoner coming to her feet and holding her hands in the air for a second before she grabbed hold of the top rope and hopped onto the bottom rope, using it as a springboard to land a double foot stomp to Vivi’s shoulders, standing on top of them as she choked her out again. Parks started the count once more as Diamond held the top rope once more, and leaned forward, waving and blowing kisses to the crowd as though they were adoring fans at a concert…and got roundly booed by them. As the official reached four. Diamond hopped into the air, and came down with a double knee drop to her foe’s back rolling backwards as she did to land on her feet as Vivi fell to the side, landing on her back, coughing and choking as she tried to catch her breath. Once more Steele stepped forwards and placed a boot across Traeger’s throat, the referee again calling for the break and starting the count as Diamond reached into her tights and pulled out a couple of guitar picks that she threw into the crowd before she stepped off and released the choke as the official reached four once more.

Zack: She’s not gonna get herself disqualified like that. Diamond is much smarter than that, but still overbearing and annoying.

Lexi: I’m not sure how smart she is, Zack. I think this is going to be just adding to Vivi’s anger in the long run and that’s only going to spell pain for Diamond. 

This time Diamond reached down and pulled her opponent up from the canvas, scooping her up off her feet as she brought her upright and then threw her down to the mat with a fallaway slam, causing Vivi to roll across the ring. Traeger was still trying to catch her breath as she laid on the canvas while the Gemstones leader pulled herself up to her feet and took off across the ring, hopping over Vivi to reach the ropes where she used the middle one as a springboard into a leg drop….that got her nothing but mat as the Voodoo Queen rolled out of the way; Diamond’s eyes going wide, her mouth forming an ‘O’ of pain as she slowly reached behind her for her lower back. 

Zack: That face tells the story. That’s like giving yourself an atomic drop on the floor.

Lexi: Rather her than me, that’s all I’m saying. 

The former Future Shock Champion took a moment before she started to get to her feet as Diamond rose at the same time but Vivi was able to strike first as she caught her opponent with a discus forearm to the jaw before she grabbed hold of her hair once more and used it to jerk the musician downwards and into a backbreaker. Vivi jerked her foe back up by the hair, bringing her to her feet before she released it only to pull Steele into a backstabber. Diamond lay across her opponent's knee for a second with a look of pain on her face as it landed before she slipped down her foe’s legs to sit on the mat. Traeger rolled to the side and came back to her feet, setting off towards the ropes behind Diamond and came back with a baseball slide that drove both of her feet into the musician's lower back. 

Zack: I appreciate Vivi’s targeted offense here, a true hallmark of a veteran. But if she wanted to make sure Diamond can’t sing for a few days, that’d be welcome.

Lexi: Maybe we should start bring ear plugs to Diamond’s matches in future, save ourselves the earache of having to listen to her. 

Steele rolled to the side and came to all fours where Vivi grabbed her by the head once more and brought her upwards, delivering a series of raised knee strikes into her sternum as she walked her towards the corner. As the pair needed the corner, Traeger jumped into the air as she drove one final knee into her foes body. It brought Steele up to her feet as the Londoner stumbled backwards and the Voodoo Queen gave her no respite as she leapt onto her shoulders and used a headscissors takedown to drive her face first into the middle turnbuckle. The New Orleans native quickly came back to her feet and headed to the opposite corner before she turned to her foe and sprinted across the ring where Diamond was using the ropes to pull herself to her feet and Vivi caught her with a leaping double knee strike to the back. Steele staggered backwards and was sent down to the mat as Traeger launched herself off the middle rope into a disaster kick. Quickly the former Future Shock Champion headed for the top rope, not missing a beat as she jumped off and into a senton bomb that landed perfectly across her foe’s chest. Vivi made the cover, hooking the leg as she did so.

Zack: A senton from the sky, and Vivi’s looking for a three count!

One…

Two…

…THR-

Lexi: Oooooh… not quite enough. Diamond isn’t ready to call it a night just yet. 

Diamond rolled the shoulder and Vivi nodded her head as she was shown the two count by the referee. The Voodoo Queen rolled her opponent onto her front and twisted her arm up behind her back into a hammerlock, forcing it as far up behind her back as possible and getting a cry of pain from the musician as she did so. Traeger held the arm in place as she kicked her feet up into the air and delivered a double knee drop into the hammerlock arm. Diamond kicked her feet against the canvas and writhed in pain only for a second double knee drop to land. This time, Steele rolled slightly to the side and tried to plead with her opponent, telling her that was her guitar arm. For a moment Vivi looked like she was about to apologize and even eased off the pressure she was applying before rolling her eyes, wrenching the hold on even tighter and delivering another pair of double knee drops to the trapped arm. Diamond spasmed against the canvas like a fish out of water, managing to move her body to the side a little way and kicked her foot out to hook it over the bottom rope. Another pair of double knee drops landed as the official called for the break and the count reached four.

Zack: Diamond held that four count earlier, and Vivi’s perfectly content to return the favor right there. 

Lexi: There aren’t many that don’t push the count as far as they can at least some of the time. 

Vivi came back to her feet as she released the hold, stepping back towards the middle of the ring and measured up her opponent as Diamond started to rise, not letting her get any further than her knees before Traeger stepped forwards and delivered a bionic elbow to the head of the Glittering Goddess. Steele swayed backwards, sitting on her heels only for Vivi to pull her back up to her feet and slammed a forearm into the side of her head before pulling her opponent away from the ropes and into the Southern Incantation - an STO backbreaker into a reverse STO. As it landed, Traeger rolled Diamond to her back once more and hooked her legs for the cover.

Lexi: That’s the Southern Incantation and this could be it!

One…

Two…

…THRE—-------- NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Zack: Diamond’s out again. She’s tough as hell, and used to be a major part of the former Ultraviolence division. That may be some reason why she’s this durable.

Before the count could be completed, Parks found himself dragged out of the ring by Ruby to the outside where he was confronted by all three of Diamond’s bandmates as they complained about the abuse they’d received at the hands of the former Future Shock Champion. The official looked at them stunned for a moment as they bunched up in front of him, berating him before he told all three of them they were ejected from the mat. That only seemed to incense them, causing them to stand their ground as they screamed at him…only for Vivi to use the top rope as a springboard and land right in the middle of all three of them with a diving somersault seated senton, sending the three musicians to the floor as the New Orleans native landed on top of them. 

Zack: Vivi takes out all the Gemstones with one shot, and we’re getting a master class on how to deal with these harpies!

Lexi: Vivi’s telling Diamond anything you can do I can do better after Diamond taking them out herself earlier. 

Vivi slid back into the ring, followed by the official and Traeger got into position as Diamond was starting to come back to her feet in the corner. Steele turned towards her foe and the Voodoo Queen charged towards her and went to connect with the Bow Down dropkick only for the musician to avoid the contact by pushing up to sit on the top turnbuckle. Vivi quickly came back up to her feet and was immediately caught by a boot to the jaw from the Gemstone while Steele was still sitting on the top turnbuckle. Vivi stepped backwards, holding her jaw and Diamond launched herself out of the corner and caught her with a knee to the face, sending her falling backwards to the canvas. Quickly Diamond stepped between her opponent’s legs, grabbing hold of her around the thighs and fell backwards into a catapult that sent the New Orleans native face first into the corner. Vivi stumbled backwards and Steele rolled her up into a pinfall, kicking her feet up onto the top rope as the referee slid into position to make the count.

Lexi: Don’t tell me Diamond is going to steal this with a rollup!?!

One…

Two..



Zack: Good spotting by the referee. Diamond should have to earn the win like everyone else, not through cheating.

Parks waved off his count as he saw Diamond’s feet up on the top rope. Steele’s feet dropped to the mat and she argued with the official, slapping her hands together as she demanded the three count from the man. The referee shook his head as he told her he caught her red-handed with her feet on the ropes. She shrugged and rolled her eyes, telling him that he was talking himself out an autograph from the greatest guitarist of all time. He took a deep breath and told her again it wasn’t a three and the match was going to continue. Vivi was starting to push upwards only for Diamond to slap her across the face before she hooked the head of the former Future Shock Champion, lifting her upwards and straight into a brainbuster. 

Zack: It’s a good thing for Diamond she immediately went for the brainbuster…because slapping your opponent in the face usually ends badly.

Lexi: There’s a chance it still might, because Vivi isn’t the type to forget something like that in a hurry. 

Steele held her arm as she sat up, but a smile started to spread across her face and she pushed up to her feet, heading for the corner to ask for the microphone, telling the ringside attendant she wanted to put on a musical extravaganza for the crowd. She was told ‘No’ and Diamond pouted for a moment, turning back towards her opponent. Traeger was starting to get up and the Londoner moved quickly towards her foe, driving her into the mat with a float over DDT. Quickly the Glittering Goddess rolled her opponent to her back and made the cover, hooking the leg as she did so.

Lexi: Diamond stopped pouting long enough to go for the cover, is it enough though?

One…

Two…

…THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!NNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Zack: Still no dice for Diamond against the former Future Shock Champion. 

Vivi kicked out and rolled onto her side as Diamond looked over towards the official who was showing the two count to the ringside officials and to Diamond. Steele shook her head as she came back to her feet, slapping her hands together three times as she asked for the three count. Parks shook his head, telling her that it was definitely only a two that caused the musician to tell him he had horrible rhythm and would probably be a terrible, terrible drummer. Parks pinched the bridge of his nose in exasperation, telling her again it was a two and Diamond shook her head once more before she looked back towards Traeger. The Voodoo Queen was slowly rising to her feet which prompted the musician to raise a finger to the lips, spinning so all the crowd could see it as she headed towards the nearest corner. The crowd booed her loudly despite her request for silence and she climbed to the top rope, perching there for a moment as she set up for the Silence is Golden. 

Zack: Yeah, they are gonna be quiet because you asked them.

Lexi: If she wanted them to be quiet, she’d be better asking them to be loud. 

As Vivi turned towards the corner, Diamond looked to launch herself into the top rope blockbuster only for Traeger to duck out of the way at the last moment. Steele landed hard on her ass on the mat, her eyes going wide, her mouth hanging open in pain. A moment later she started back to her feet as Vivi hit the ropes and came back towards the Shining Star and crashed the From Treme With Love running bicycle knee to the face. Diamond spun away, staggering unsteadily for her balance as her legs turned to jelly. She dropped to one knee, placing a hand on the mat to steady herself as she tried to return back to an upright position only for Vivi to spike her face first into the canvas with the Creole Surprise, leapfrogging over her from behind into a one handed face crusher. As Diamond hit the mat, Traeger made the cover, hooking both legs as she did so.

Zack: CREOLE SURPRISE!! I think that’s gonna do it!

One…

Two…

…THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!NNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lexi: No! How the hell is Diamond still in this? I thought for sure that was it. 

At the very last moment, Diamond’s shoulder popped up from the mat, causing the referee to stop the count. Steele lay on the mat for a couple of moments as Vivi checked the count with the official, asking for the three but getting told it was only a two. Traeger asked once more as the referee explained that the shoulder came up in the nick of time. The New Orleans nodded her head in acceptance and pushed up to her feet as the Londoner rolled onto her front and started to slowly push herself up, getting to all fours before collapsing back down. It was only for a moment before Diamond started to push up again. This time she got to all fours and then started to take a moment to come to her knees. Traeger raised her hand in the hair, whipping it around in a circle that caused the fans to cheer her louder. As soon as the Londoner made it to one knee she charged towards her and the Voodoo Queen drove her down into the mat with Hurricane Vivienne! Steele hit the canvas and rolled onto her back; Traeger dived on top and hooked the legs as she did so.

Zack: That’ll definitely do it! HURRICANE VIVIENNE just made landfall!

One…

Two…

…THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lexi: She’s done it! Finally we should be safe from Diamond attempting to sing anymore tonight. 

Parks completed the count and called for the bell, Vivi sitting up as he did so while Diamond slowly rolled to the side, holding her head as she did so. Traeger began to come to her feet and as she did so, the official raised her hand in the air.

Kat: Here is your winner, by way of pinfall… VIVI TRAEGER!!!!

Zack: That’s gotta feel good for Vivi after the first match with Diamond went. She scores the win on her first Pay Per View as part of the FFW roster.

Lexi: And she shut up Diamond at least temporarily, it’s definitely a win win for Vivi tonight. 

The fans cheered her loudly as Vivi headed towards the corner, climbing up to the middle rope to celebrate as Steele rolled out of the ring and joined her bandmates. The four of them complained to the referee, following him as he left the ring and went up the entrance ramp, complaining all the way. Meanwhile in the ring, Vivi was celebrating her victory before the show cut elsewhere.


The Chosen Lilly

A clip is shown of the recent match where “Midnight” Mila Martin defeated FFW Hall of Famer Jo McFarlane. Then the show returns to the arena, and there we find Allison Marx with none other than the No Surrender Champion Lilly Arthur.

Allison: I have some late breaking news to share with our reigning No Surrender Champion here. As you just saw in that clip, “Midnight” Mila Martin won a shot at either the Pure Championship or the No Surrender title. Earlier tonight, I had a chance to ask Mila which choice she was going to make. She was clearly focused on her tag match, but did tell me she wants to cash that prize in on my guest for the titanium title. 

Allison turned her attention to Lilly.

Allison: It appears Shaw’s invitation for her to come after the Pure title didn’t entice her as much as your championship, Lilly. Why do you think she picked you? 

Lilly took a deep breath.

Lilly: You’d have to check with Mila to know why, but I’m happy to offer up some wild speculation. I’ll not insult her by suggesting that she maybe thinks I’m an easier opponent to beat than an all conquering Shaw. I doubt that even crossed her mind and if it did then I’m sure she’d want to take on the best and the brightest that she can…and that’s why she chose me. Or perhaps she considers the No Surrender Championship a little more prestigious right now than the fledgling Pure Championship. After all, former No Surrender Champions like Wendy Briese and Jo McFarlane have won this title and gone on to the FFW Championship while Sophia Pike and Savannah Star have all gone on to challenge for it. They’re pretty good reasons to chase this title down don’t you think?

There was a shrug of her shoulders.

Lilly: Or perhaps the prospect of an Englishwoman vs Englishwoman clash appeals to her?

Allison: I would have asked her directly, but like I say, she and Caitlyn were busy preparing for their match tonight against the Wicked Storm. And that was more than a suitable reason to leave her be after just asking that question. I can confirm the match will take place May 21st at the fifth annual Fury coming from Phoenix, Arizona. I’m sure you can certainly see why a victory over a woman like Jo opened up so many avenues for Mila, right? 

There was a nod of the head from the No Surrender Champion.

Lilly: I can. Jo is one of the most decorated women in FFW history. She’s won just about every title that she challenged for, she’s been the face of the company…a lynchpin of the company and was rightfully inducted into the Hall of Fame. On top of that, Jo is one of the best technical wrestlers in the world. Anytime you beat someone like that, it’ll open doors for you and Mila did one heck of a good job against her; she outwrestled her and she deserves the opportunities that she’s gotten. It’ll be a tough match for me at Fury; Mila will test me and push me every step of the way.

Allison: Lastly and a little off topic, I wanted to get your thoughts on the influx of new women across both the FFW and Future Shock rosters. Several of them are all over tonight’s card. Does anyone stand out to you among them? 

Lilly: That’s a good question. In terms of the FFW roster… Rebecka Hate is a scary powerful woman who has a lot of experience and knows many different ways to beat a person. Vivi’s also a very impressive talent with a lot of heart and determination. But as No Surrender Champion, one who really stands out is Kat—sorry Diamond Steele. During her time away she’s picked up about a million nicknames and some of those are all touting how great a submission wrestler she is and I think she’s picked up a submission title elsewhere. So, that’s got my attention for pretty obvious reasons.

Allison: I figured she might come up on your radar. She’s also brought along quite the entourage with her, referring to the Gemstones. Though as we saw earlier, Vivi Traeger was able to secure a victory despite their best efforts. She’s certainly a different woman than the one we used to know as Kate.

Lilly: Most definitely a different woman and you’re right, she comes along with an entourage these days. As you said, it didn’t help her earlier tonight against Vivi but I’m not about to write her off. We’ve seen her be….ridiculous before; she’s the reason my brother decided to become Sheffield… and Samara was certainly just about the only sane person in that family. Diamond was still dangerous and I’m sure she will be again sooner rather than later too. n

Allison: Thanks for talking with me tonight, Lilly. Now let’s send it back to the ring, because the Midnight Storm is about to meet the Wicked Storm.

Allison thanked Lilly before the show went to a highlight package of the history between the two teams.

The show cut back to the ring where Kat was waiting to continue proceedings.

Zack: The phrase “tag team grudge match” was coined for matches like the one we are about to see. 

Lexi: I already said, but I think it’s worth repeating that I am behind Caitlyn and Mila one thousand percent in this one. 

Kat: The following match is scheduled for one fall to a finish and it is a tag team match!!!

The video wall goes black for a second before clouds come rolling in over a city skyline. Thunder rumbles and lightning strikes before the video cuts to highlights of Mila and Caitlyn’s previous match. When Gives You Hell by The All-American Rejects starts to play, they both step out onto the stage. Caitlyn bounces on her heels with a smile as she hears the crowd, while Mila cracks her knuckles. And when Storm takes off towards the ring, Mila walks behind her with a steely expression before they hit the ring.

Kat: At a total combined weight of 255 pounds, they are “MIDNIGHT” MILA MARTIN and CAITLYN STORM…...THE MIDNIGHT STORM!!

Mila stretches her legs against the ropes as Caitlyn bounces on her feet with enthusiasm. They turn their attention to the ramp next, awaiting their opponents entrance.

Zack: The Midnight Storm have been a team for a little while now, but I don’t think any team has wreaked as much chaos as the two they are about to face. 

Lexi: Midnight Storm are more than just a team, they really are best friends and about as close as being sisters as you can get without actually being sisters. 

The lights dim and then "No One Will Survive" by CFO$ begins to play as smoke gathers at the entrance. After a few moments Veronica Chandler walks out followed by Dante Knox and then by her clients Kristina Spencer and  Michelle Storm. Michelle stands on the top of the ramp with a huge smirk on her face as she looks over at Kristina who is wearing shades and a leather jacket and has her barbwire bat dragging on the floor. She lowers her sunglasses as the lights come up and scoffs at the crowd before her. She pushes her sunglasses back up on her face and shakes her head in disappointment as Michelle looks on in distaon as well. Michelle, Dante  and Veronica make their way down the aisle making sure not to  allow the crowd to touch any of them or Kristina who looks ready to pounch on any fan stupid enough to touch her.

Kat: Coming down the aisle accompanied by Vivacious Vee and Dante Knox hailing from The City Of Angels and Sin City,  and weighing in at a combined two hundred fifty pounds - “THE WICKED” KRISTINA SPENCER & MICHELLE STORM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Collectively known as THE WICKED STORM!!!!!!!!!

Dante climbs to the apron and holds the ropes open for Veronica and Michelle who have climbed up onto the ring apron.  Kristina walks around the ring slamming her bat down on the ring steps before slamming her bat onto the announce table freaking Kevin out. Kristina finally slides into the ring and raises her barbwire bat into the air as Michelle drops to her knees n front of her partner and extends her arms to the side getting cheers from hardcore fans and jeers from everybody else. Veronica stands off to the side applauding her clients and talking with Dante.  Michelle scales the ropes in a corner  and demands the crowd show them respect. Kristina stares at the referee and stalks him into a corner before Veronica walks over and gives him instructions on how to referee the match. Kristina then removes her shades and jacket and hands her barbed wire bat to Veronica. Michelle removes her mask and cape and hands them to Veronica as well and then starts loosening up with shadow boxing as Kristina lays across the ropes behind her in the corner.

Zack: The Wicked Storm sat atop SVW’s tag division for quite some time before it closed down. They know how to get the job done, like them or not. Tonight though, I think they might have poked a hornet’s nest with Caitlyn and Mila. 

Lexi: They’ve definitely poked the hornet’s nest, Zack. For a team who know how to get the job done, you’d think the Wicked Storm would be a little less inclined to underestimate the competition. 

Robert Valero was the referee in charge and he told the two teams to decide who was going to start for their teams. Caitlyn and Mila started to discuss it before they grabbed each others hands and looked to be about to thumb wrestle for the honour…which saw Kristina and Michelle shrug their shoulders on the other side of the ring and charge towards the Midnight Storm members. As they neared though, Mila released her grip and side stepped out of the way, letting Michelle crash chest first into the turnbuckle pads and Caitlyn lowered her shoulder and sent Kristina up and over the top rope to the outside with a back body drop. Michelle stepped backwards out of the corner only for Martin to grab hold of the back of her head and send her face first into the top turnbuckle ten times. Meanwhile Caitlyn stepped out onto the apron and launched herself towards Kristina as the Wicked made it back to her feet, taking her down to the floor with a Thesz press and started to unload on her on the outside. 

Zack: Looks like we’re picking up exactly where things left off in their last tag team meeting. Clearly time hasn’t made anything better between them.

Lexi: Whoever said time heals all wounds was a liar, Zack. All this time will have done is allow it to fester so I’m really not surprised that we’re picking up exactly where it left off between them. 

Valero stepped through the ropes and dropped down to the floor, telling Caitlyn to let Spencer up before he rolled back into the ring and told Mila to let Michelle out of the corner as the Londoner was firing off a series of stiff kicks into her midriff. With a shake of his head, Valero called for the bell to get the match started. On the outside Vee was making her way around the ring towards the blonde Storm with the barbed wire wrapped baseball bat in her hand but Caitlyn saw her coming and suddenly popped up from her knees and caught the manager with a bicycle knee to her jaw that sent her down to the floor. Caitlyn turned back around towards the Wicked and as Spencer pulled herself upwards, Storm darted towards her and took her back down to the floor with a clothesline. 

Zack: For my money, there’s no one faster on her feet than Caitlyn. She can hit like a truck, and move like a Ferrari. 

Lexi: I’m sure there’s quite a few people who would have loved to have put Vee down. She’s not exactly endearing is she?

In the ring Martin pulled Michelle out of the corner and scooped her up as she did before she delivered a body slam, following it up with a double knee drop. The brunette Storm sat up holding her head and Mila wrapped an arm around her throat in a rear chinlock as she began to deliver a series of elbows into the top of her head. The official told the Englishwoman to let her foe up and Martin nodded as she pulled Michelle up to her feet, grabbing hold of her by the tights and the scruff of the neck as she charged towards the Wicked Storm corner and hurled her foe over the top rope to the outside. As she did so, Caitlyn rolled Kristina into the ring underneath the bottom rope and hopped up into the corner, grabbing hold of the tag rope as she leaned in to ask for the tag. Mila nodded her head as she saw her partner’s outstretched hand, pulling the Wicked up to her feet and Irish whipped her into the Midnight Storm’s corner. 

Zack: If these two ladies can keep Kristina where she is right now, their job gets much easier tonight. But trying to contain her is a load for anyone.

Lexi: Mila and Caitlyn are a well oiled machine in the way they work, but unlike their opponents they follow the rules, which could end up being a disadvantage to them when they’re facing a team like Wicked Storm. 

As soon as Kristina hit the turnbuckle pads, Martin charged in after her and delivered a shoulder thrust into her gut. She made the tag and four more shoulder thrusts followed and as the last one landed, Caitlyn left her feet and caught the Wicked with an enzuigiri to the back of her head. Spencer staggered forwards out of the ring and Midnight lifted her up into a Gorilla Press slam position before stepping out from underneath and let her crash face first into the mat as Caitlyn climbed to the top rope. Mila stepped through the ropes to the outside and as Kristina sat up, Storm leapt off the turnbuckle to deliver an elbow drop straight into her heart and made the cover, hooking the leg as she did so.

Zack: Caitlyn’s looking to seal the deal right away at Relentless!

One…

Two…

Lexi: I think Caitlyn was being a little over ambitious there, but you can’t blame a girl for trying. 

Kristina kicked out and rolled away to the middle of the ring where she started to crawl towards her corner as Michelle pulled herself onto the apron from the outside. Caitlyn though stopped Spencer before she could get to the middle of the ring, grabbing hold of her legs and lifted her up into the air only to slam her face first into the mat with a wheelbarrow facebuster. The Wicked held her face as she rolled over onto her back and the bubbly blonde pulled her up to her feet and Irish whipped her into the Midnight Storm corner. As the Wicked hit the turnbuckles, Caitlyn backed up quickly before she spun around and caught Michelle with a roaring elbow to the jaw that saw the Wicked Storm member almost fall off the apron - stopped only by having an arm hooked over the top rope, holding her jaw with the other end and Dante stepped onto the bottom ring step to check on her. 

Zack: It’s almost like Michelle’s never been socked in the mouth before, look at Knox checking on her. It’s gonna get a lot worse if that’s what slows her down.

Lexi: He’s gotta earn his money somehow I guess, because I really can’t figure out what other uses he has. 

The New Yorker completed her spin around and charged across the ring towards Kristina and launched herself into a double strike…that only saw her hit turnbuckle pads as Spencer stumbled out of the way at the very last second. Midnight reached in and slapped her partner on the shoulder as Caitlyn took ginger steps backwards, holding her knees while Kristina started to head towards her corner with her arm outstretched.

Lexi: That really didn’t go the way Caitlyn wanted it to, but thankfully Mila was on hand to give her a break. 

Martin quickly entered the ring and caught up with the Wicked, grabbing her arms from behind and hurled her down to the canvas with a dragon suplex. As she got up Dante climbed the rest of the way up the steps and onto the ring apron, getting the referee’s attention as he demanded the disqualification for all the rules that the Midnight Storm had broken. As he was doing so Mila took off towards the ropes and bounced off them to run over the rising Spencer with a crooked arm lariat. However, before Martin could turn around, Michelle Storm caught her from behind with a low blow before she lifted her up onto her shoulders and slammed the former Army veteran into the canvas with a fireman’s carry slam. Caitlyn tried to enter the ring but as she did so, Kristina caught her around the waist and lifted her up, spinning and dropping her with a stun gun over the top rope before she grabbed hold of her leg and sent her up and over the top rope to the outside before Spencer leaned against the ropes, holding the back of her head while Dante still had the referee distracted. 

Zack: No one would be disappointed to see Vee and Dante thrown out of the arena…except for them. 

Lexi: I’m still trying to figure out just what rules Dante thinks the Midnight Storm have broken?! Are they some new, unspoken rules that the rest of us aren’t aware of?

Meanwhile, Midnight had landed hard on her back and had immediately started to sit up only for Michelle to grab hold of two handfuls of her hair, jerking her upwards and into a beal across the ring with the hair before she dropped down and rolled out of the ring. Once Mila went to rise, getting as far as her knees before Kristina ran at her and caught her with a rising knee lift to the underside of her jaw as Dante finally relented and dropped back down to the floor, telling the referee he was watching him and would lodge an official complaint if he continued to allow such blatant foul play go unpunished. As the referee turned back to the action, Kristina had hauled Midnight up to her feet and pushed her back into the corner where she started to unload stiff kicks into her midsection. The referee called for the break, getting to four before Spencer stepped back a step, giving the referee the break, but only for a second before she raised her boot and pressed it against Midnight’s throat; the army veteran struggled and tried to push the boot away from her windpipe as Michelle held up the tag rope in the corner, reached in and slapped her partner’s leg as the referee was asking for the break and started the count, getting to four once more before he got the break.

Zack: Mila’s in trouble right now. And this is when the Wicked Storm get the most diabolical in the ring. 

Lexi: Luckily Mila is made of strong stuff and has great resilience, but there is only so much anyone can take of being choked like that. 

He told Kristina to leave the ring and Spencer did as ordered, holding her hands up as she did so and Michelle began to fire off a volley of gut punches into the army veteran’s ribs. Midnight tried to cover up as the referee again demanded the break, getting to four on the count and was about to count five as Michelle delivered one final kick and stepped back, holding her hands up and told the referee she had five. It caused Valero to tell her to listen and obey his instructions as she backed away towards the middle of the ring while Spencer grabbed hold of Mila’s hair from the outside, pulling backwards on it and as she did so, the brunette Storm darted forwards and delivered a running European uppercut to her jaw as Kristina raised her hands innocently with a grin on her face as the referee looked at her warily. 

Zack: I don’t think the referee is going for Kristina’s innocent act. No one who has ever seen her in the ring would.

Lexi: Maybe they think he was born yesterday, that’s the way anyone would believe that these two have an innocent bone between them. 

Michelle pulled her opponent out of the corner and pushed the submissionist back against the ring ropes before she fired her across the ring, catching her on the return with a clothesline. Midnight hit the mat and Michelle curled her bicep to pose for a moment before she dropped an elbow into the Londoners chest. Arrogantly Storm laid back across the body of Mila, not bothering to hook the leg for the cover as she did so and Valero slid into position to make the count.

Lexi: That is not going to get the job done against someone like Mila, no chance. 

One…

Zack: That’s about what I figured. Way too much stamina left in Mila for that.

Mila kicked out and immediately sat up which saw the legal half of Wicked Storm quickly move around behind the army veteran and lock in a dragon sleeper, hooking her head from behind and wrapped her legs around her body, locking her ankles to apply a body scissors. The referee checked that the hold was legal and asked Mila if she wanted to quit. Martin shook her head, telling him ‘No’ which saw Michelle lean backwards, arching her back up from the mat as she tried to apply even more pressure in the hold. The referee asked again, getting another ‘No’ as Martin rolled to the side and kicked her feet against the mat, pushing herself forward against the canvas and stretched out a leg to hook her foot over the bottom rope. The referee didn’t see it, asking her again if she quit as Dante walked past nonchalantly and pushed the foot off the bottom rope as the Englishwoman said ‘No’ once more, then kicked her foot out yet again and hooked her foot over the bottom rope again. This time Valero saw it before Dante could walk past and knock it off again and called for the break, starting the count.

Zack: I’m glad the referee finally saw what you and I and everyone in the Saitama Super Arena saw. 

Lexi: I’d say Dante better hot foot it outta here when this is over or he could have a rather annoyed Mila to contend with for that little stunt. 

Again he made it four before he got the release, Storm rolling to her feet and made the tag to her partner. Kristina entered the ring as Michelle pulled Mila up onto knees and the two Wicked Storm members began to fire off stiff kicks into the chest of the army veteran. The official told Michelle to leave the ring and again had his count tested before Storm left the ring in the nick of time. As she did so, Spencer hooked Martin’s head, pulling her upwards and straight into a snap DDT. As the Londoner rolled onto her back, Kristina made a cover. 

Lexi: Even with the double teaming, I’m still not sure they’ve done enough yet to put Mila away… but I could be biased here. 

One…

Zack: Almost a two count, but Mila’s continuing to show what she’s made of in there.

Mila kicked out with authority and went to sit up as Spencer came to her feet and drove a boot into her spine before she headed to the corner and tagged in Michelle. Storm entered the ring and the two of them pulled Martin up from the canvas and into a double slingshot suplex. As Midnight hit the mat, Michelle floated over into the mount position and began to fire off forearms into her face as the Londoner covered up while Kristina once more took up position in the corner. As soon as she did so, Michelle popped back up to her feet and once more made the tag to bring in the other half of the Wicked Storm. As Kristina entered the ring Michelle went to pull Midnight up and into position for a piledriver as Spencer climbed to the middle rope. The Sin City Storm went to lift her opponent up into position for a piledriver, only getting her half way up as Midnight fought against the move. As Mila’s feet landed on the mat, she stood upright, lifting Michelle off her feet for a moment before she drove her down into the canvas with an Alabama Slam. The Wicked Storm member curled up in a ball on the mat as Midnight staggered back into the corner where Kristina hooked her head from behind and went to launch herself into a bulldog…only for the Englishwoman to catch her, stepping forwards a couple of steps as she did before she turned and drove the Wicked down into her partner with a back suplex. 

Zack: Mila taking on both halves of the Wicked Storm there, but still needs to get to her corner sooner than later. Unfortunately this won’t be the last time we see Dante tonight, because the Evolution Championship match is still to come between Casey and Nevaeh.

Lexi: Mila definitely could do with a break here and I’m sure Caitlyn will be dying to get back in the ring and get some action for herself. 

Midnight rolled onto her knees and took a moment to get her bearing before she began to crawl towards her corner. Michelle rolled out of the ring, Kristina held her back and rolled to the ropes, using them to pull herself upright. As Mila crossed the middle of the ring she forced herself to her feet and stumbled towards Caitlyn, Spencer started after, speeding up as she did so. Mila felt her coming and dove towards her partner’s outstretched hand…missing it by millimeters as Vee jerked the blonde Storm’s legs out from under her, causing her to land on her feet on the outside. The Vivacious one immediately started to berate Caitlyn for the knee to the jaw earlier, jabbing her in the chest with the end of the barbed wire baseball bat as she told the New Yorker that she was going to pay for all of her dental treatment… which saw Caitlyn nod her head slowly before she quickly stepped backwards only to reverse direction, skipping forwards and landed a perfect superkick to Vee’s jaw; the Wicked Storm’s manager blinked twice before she keeled straight over backwards to the floor and lay there spread eagle before Caitlyn headed back to her corner, hopping onto the apron and grabbing hold of the tag rope as she leaned over the top rope, her arm extended towards her partner.

Zack: Caitlyn wishes her arm was about a couple feet longer. She wants into this match in the worst way. Mila, no doubt, would love to oblige her.

Lexi: Can we get a replay of that superkick in slow motion please? That was just what Vee deserved!

While Caitlyn had been dealing with the blonde manager on the outside, the Wicked had caught up with Martin as she landed on the mat from the dive and Spencer had immediately grabbed hold of the top rope and started to stomp away in rapid fire fashion at the back of her head. The referee had called for the break and used the count which saw Kristina jerk Mila back up to her feet and hurl her back across the ring with an exploder suplex. Martin hit the canvas and rolled onto her front, started to push upwards and Kristina darted forwards, leaving her feet as she grabbed hold of the back of the army veteran's head with both hands and spiked her face first into the canvas with a two handed bulldog. Spencer rolled away holding her spine and pushed up to her feet where she staggered towards the corner and made the tag to Michelle.

Zack: Here comes Michelle. Like them or not, we are seeing some great chemistry from Michelle and her partner. A lot of cheating too.

Lexi: Nobody has ever denied that the Wicked Storm are a cohesive team, it would be interesting to see just how successful they’d be without the need for cheating though, don’t you think?

Zack: Without question, Lexi.

Storm entered the ring and along with Spencer advanced on Mila as she came to her knees. As the Wicked Storm members neared, Martin caught them one after the other with shots to the gut, causing them both to take a step backwards. The army veteran forced herself back to her feet and caught Kristina and Michelle with matching forearms to the jaw. Mila went to tag them both once more but as she did, Kristina blocked the shot and raked her eyes before Michelle pulled her forwards and delivered a headbutt. It saw Martin drop down to one knee which allowed both members of the Wicked Storm to hook her head. They lifted her up into position for a suplex but as they did so, the Londoner shifted her weight to land on her feet behind her foes and quickly landed a  double neckbreaker. The Wicked Storm members rolled in opposite directions holding their necks as Caitlyn was slapping the top turnbuckle with her hand, stomping her foot on the apron and was trying to rally the fans behind her partner and let her know which way to head to make the tag.

Zack: Caitlyn is getting all these fans here in Japan behind her, and is damn near willing Mila to get to her to make the tag!

Lexi: I think Mila needs the break as much as Caitlyn needs to get into the ring, moreso probably. 

Midnight took a couple of moments before she finally rolled to her stomach and began to head towards her corner slowly. Before she could get there though, Michelle made it back to her feet, still holding her neck and moved towards Mila, reaching down and wrapped her arms around her stomach, hauling her upwards and driving her down into the mat with a gutwrench slam. The Sin City Storm dropped down and made the cover on the Englishwoman, reaching to hook the leg as she did so.

Zack: This might be all! Good Lord, we’ll never hear the end of it if it is!

One…

Two…

…THRE–

Lexi: No! Mila is somehow still in this. Heaven only knows how after the punishment she’s taken. 

Mila rolled the shoulder to stop the count and Michelle stared at the official, holding up three fingers only for the referee to shake his head, telling her it was only a two. The Wicked Storm member glared at him, making her opinions on his abilities known, causing him to show her the two again as she started to pull the Midnight Storm member to her feet. As she pulled Mila upright, Martin reached up to grab hold of her head and dropped to her knees with a jawbreaker. Michelle stumbled backwards; Martin popped back up to one knee, turning as she did so and launched herself towards her corner where she made the tag to her partner. Quickly Caitlyn grabbed hold of the top rope and used it to launch herself over the top rope and into a shoulder tackle that caught her namesake perfectly, sending her down to the canvas. Quickly the former fitness instructor rolled back through to her feet and ran towards the ropes, bouncing off them and came back to catch Kristina with a bicycle kick to the jaw, dropping Spencer back down to the mat. 

Zack: Look at Caitlyn go! What a bicycle kick! She might have loosened some molars right there!

Lexi: Caitlyn is finally right where she wanted to be, and she’s damn sure making it count right now. 

Caitlyn turned as Michelle was rising back to her feet and launched herself towards her into a handstand headscissors takedown that sent the Storm from Sin City across the ring. Again the bubbly blonde was quickly back to her feet and headed towards Kristina; the Wicked was using the ropes to pull herself upright and was virtually sat on the middle rope as Caitlyn stepped up and caught her with an enzuigiri to the side of the head, dropping her down to the mat where Spencer rolled to the outside. In the corner, Michelle had pulled herself upwards and again Caitlyn darted towards her, stepping up onto the middle rope as she crashed a raised knee into her foe’s jaw. The New yorker dropped back down to the mat in front of Michelle and caught her with a roundhouse kick to the side of the head. The Wicked Storm member staggered forwards a couple of steps before she dropped to her knees. Caitlyn double underhooked both of her arms and slammed her face first into the mat before she rolled her over and made the cover.

Zack: What a roundhouse! This might be over right now!

One…

Two…

…THR-

Lexi: Oh, that was close, but not close enough. 

Michelle kicked out of the pinfall on two and a half and rolled to the side where she unsteadily pushed up to all fours before collapsing back to the mat for a moment. Again the woman from Sin City pushed up to all fours as Caitlyn came back to her feet, the crowd cheering for her as she nodded her head in acceptance of the official’s count. The bubbly blonde dropped back to the ring ropes and as she came back she launched herself into a low dropkick to the side of the head, sending Michelle rolling over onto her back. Quickly Caitlyn dropped to kneel down over her foe, cradling the back of her head as she lifted her up and started to slam elbow strikes into her forehead. The referee called for the break and started the count, getting to four before Storm popped back up to her feet and once more took off across the ring, bouncing off the ropes and landed a backsplash across her opponent’s chest. The New Yorker leaned back and hooked the leg for the pin fall.

Zack: Caitlyn is a wrecking machine, and she may have the win!

One…

Two…

…THR–

Lexi: Damn… so close again. C’mon Caitlyn!

Again Michelle kicked out ahead of the three count and this time Caitlyn pulled her up to her feet and fired her into the Midnight Storm corner. The New Yorker was right behind her and as Sin City native hit the turnbuckle pads, the bubbly blonde left her feet and caught her with a hip check, holding her hand up to get the tag from Mila before she started to fire off back elbows, driving left and rights into the side of her opponent’s head while Midnight stepped through the ropes. The referee called for the break and started the count. Caitlyn stepping forward as he reached three and pulled Michelle out of the corner and delivered a stiff shoot kick to the kneecap, causing her legs to buckle. As the Wicked Storm member landed on one knee, Martin caught her to the side of the head with a shining wizard, completing the Lightning Strikes, before she made the cover.

Zack: LIGHTNING STRIKES!! The Midnight Storm are running the show!

One…

Two…

…THRE-

Lexi: Seriously?! I thought that was it for sure then. 

Michelle rolled her shoulder before the three count could be completed and rolled onto her front. Mila quickly reached down and grabbed hold of the wrists of the Sin City native to lock in a standing surfboard submission. Valero dropped down into position to ask Michelle if she wanted to quit, getting a scream of pain as Midnight leaned and adjusted her grip and leaned backwards in the hold to apply more pressure to her foe’s back. The official asked again, getting an anguished ‘No’ and a shake of the head as the pain showed on Michelle’s face before she kicked a leg out to one side and found the bottom rope. The referee called for the break and started the count, getting it at three as Mila stomped on her back to send the Sin City native face first into the mat before she turned and made the tag to Caitlyn, telling her to climb to the top rope, Storm nodding her head as she began to scale the turnbuckles.  

Zack: Mila gave her partner the iggy, and Caitlyn’s heading to the top floor!

Lexi: I have a feeling this is not going to end well for the Wicked Storm!

Meanwhile, Martin turned her attention back to Michelle pulling her upwards and locked in a Full Nelson, moving her away from the ropes before she used the hold to slam her down into the mat as Valero told her to leave the ring. Midnight headed towards her partner who was perched on the top rope and used her strength to send her flying into a splash across Michelle’s body with the rocket launcher. Caitlyn made the cover as she landed and hooked the leg as she did.

Zack: Look at the height! Smooth ride, harsh landing! Caitlyn’s got it!

One…

Two…

…THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!

Lexi: Yes! I knew they could do it! I’m proud of Caitlyn and I’m not even gonna try and hide it!

The referee called for the bell to a pop from the crowd as Caitlyn made it back to her feet. She was soon joined by Mila.

Kat: Your winners by pinfall…………………..THE MIDNIGHT STORM!!!

Zack: That’s how you do it! The Midnight Storm have picked up one hell of a win on one of FFW’s biggest stages at Relentless!!!

Lexi: They weathered the Wicked Storm and got a well deserved win there. I’m sure there’ll be some celebrating going on in the Midnight Storm locker room tonight. 

Caitlyn and Mila shared a hug as they got their hands raised by the referee, and the Japanese fans gave them plenty of love too.

Zack: These two ladies are moving up in both the singles and tag ranks. Congratulations to Mila and Caitlyn on a well earned win! The Unity Champs may be seeing them again soon at this rate.

Lexi: They earned every bit of this win tonight, and maybe the Wicked Storm might learn a thing or two, but I’m guessing probably not. 

As the two left the ring and greeted many of the fans along ringside, the show cut to a commercial for Future Shock Global Wars.

Lexi: The following tag team match is scheduled for one fall, and it is for the Future Shock Tag Team Championship.

Zack: For those who may not be watching Future Shock, this will give you a glimpse into its thriving tag team division in our spotlight match for Relentless. For those that do, it’s hard to find two teams who are more of a roll right now. Glad to be here with Claire as always.

Claire: It’s a pleasure to be here and you’re right. We’re going to see two teams right at the peak of their powers; two teams who are in form and who are exceptionally talented albeit in different ways. This is going to be something of a clash of styles here tonight. 

The curtain opens and Nadia Beaulieu and Alessandra Esposito appear as ‘Chase You Down’ begins to play around the arena.

Ooh Ooh
Don't let it slip away
Ooh Ooh
Don't let it get away


The two girls stand back to back and make ‘guns’ with their fingers. They raise them up and move them side to side to take their aim until they finally find their target directly in front of them. In perfect unison they make a motion as if firing and then lower their ‘guns’ with a satisfied nod, turning to face the ring when they have.

Can you hear me right now
I got your number
And I'm callin' you out
With liquid courage
I can beat all my doubt
There's not another
So I'm chasin' you down


They both take off towards the ring at a run, with Nadia reaching it before Alessandra. Nadia climbs the steps, while Alessandra hops straight up onto the apron when she catches up.

Chasin' you down
Can you see me right now
I'm comin' closer
Think I figured you out
Not like the others
You don't blend with the crowd
I've blown your cover
Now I'm takin' you down
Takin' you down


Lexi: Introducing at this time, ALESSANDRA ESPOSITO and NADIA BEAULIEU…..They are…...TARGET ACQUIRED!

Can you hear me right now
I got your number
And I'm callin' you out
With liquid courage
I can beat all my doubt
There's not another
So I'm chasin' you down
Chasin' you down


Nadia climbs up onto the turnbuckle while Alessandra hops up to sit on the top rope facing the ramp. Alessandra kicks her feet upwards to roll backwards into the ring landing on one knee. She keeps her head lowered as Nadia somersaults off the top turnbuckle to land on her feet behind her. The two make their finger ‘guns’ again, raising them to their mouths to blow the ‘smoke’ away before Alessandra gets to her feet and the two head to their corner, sharing some last minute words as they await the start of the match.
Zack: FFW fans know Target Acquired very well, because they started 2021 winning the Unity Tag Titles on their first night on the roster. The Future Shock Tag Titles, though, have eluded them for some time. That could be about to change.

Claire: Everyone knows that Nadia and Alessandra are supremely talented and very competitive. They’re more than solid technical wrestlers, accomplished strikers and when they need to they can move up through the gears and up the pace. It’s part of what makes them so very dangerous and effective inside the ring.

The lights go out...

The intro of music of “Giant Press” by Unknown Artist (NPJW) hits the arena, prompting the arena to erupt to thunderous reaction.

As the song begins, the spotlight is beaming on the stage, where Victoria Havoc & Sienna Danger comes out and steps onto the stage. Sienna goes down on one knee while Victoria stands behind her, both ladies having their arms positioned in a flex position. After a while, the ladies stop posing and form their hands together in the symbol of a triangle, representing their faction. After Sienna makes it to her feet, the ladies menacingly stomp their foot on the stage, causing the four corners of the ring to shoot out fog, accompanied by a thunderous booming sound. Just then, the ladies, along with Jacqui Minogue, make their way to the ring.
 
Lexi: Making their way to the ring, representing The Matriarchy... at a total combined weight of 390 pounds…from Melbourne, Australia…”The Lady Beast” Victoria Havoc & “The Python” Sienna Danger…They are the reigning and defending Future Shock Tag Team Champions…THE DOOMSDAY SISTERS!!!!!

Once the ladies get to ringside, they walk around the ring, doing a little trash talking with the fans at ringside. The ladies climb up to the apron, wipe their feet on the apron, and step over the ropes to enter the ring. Victoria & Sienna then walk over to opposite corners where they climb up and pose, yelling back at the crowd at every chance. They then go towards the other two opposite corners to do the same routine after climbing up. After coming down and the lights come back on, Victoria & Sienna go to their corner of the ring as they wait for the match to begin.

Zack: In the history of Future Shock, there has been no more powerful team to hold its tag titles. The Doomsdays Sisters are two time champions, and I’m convinced they have ascended to another level since regaining them last October in Sydney, Australia. And I’m not surprised to see the “Perfect Storm” here with them tonight at Relentless.

Claire: As a team they have been undefeated for a while now and just gone through the opposition like a wrecking ball. Given half a chance they dominate and impose their will upon matches thanks to their strength. And just like the challengers, they have excellent chemistry together

Referee Jennifer Stringer took the titles from the champions, and showed them to Target Acquired before raising them above her head. Lexi left with the gold before the referee called for the bell. Victoria started for the Sisters, and Alessandra began for the challengers. The Aussie went practically nose to nose with Esposito, immediately telling her what was going to happen to her as a result of her match with Jacqui not too long ago. Alessandra showed no fear though, and told her to take her best shot with a tap on her chin. Havoc looked back to her partner with a smirk, and Alessandra didn’t give her a chance to turn back before she delivered a surprise jawbreaker! It sent Victoria backwards a couple steps, and Alessandra opened with straight right hands aimed at her jaw. Each shot sent her back a little before the challenger whipped her across to the far side, and caught her on the rebound with a rolling elbow to the mouth. It again wobbled her, but Havoc didn’t go down.

Zack: Sounds like this is going to be some revenge for Jacqui…or at least that was the original plan! Look at Alessandra unloading!

Claire: We’re seeing the excellent striking technique from the fiery Italian already. She’s rocked Victoria….but Havoc is still upright.

A few more right hands landed against her jaw, keeping Havoc reeling before Alessandra rebounded off the ropes behind her. She finally brought her down with a one-handed bulldog, and rolled on top of her for mounted punches to keep her down. The Italian beauty got back to her feet to a pop from the crowd, and waved her arms to get them louder. She saw Victoria starting to get up, and quickly muscled her up into a scoop slam as Nadia looked on proudly from the corner.

Zack: Look at that strength from Alessandra. You don’t see the Doomsday Sisters get slammed too often, folks. There’s not many who even get a chance to do it!

Claire: Esposito is really taking the fight to the Champions tonight and doing everything that she can to keep them off balance; to stop them from using their usual tactics - at least for now, it’s working and she has Victoria on the back foot.

It was easy to see Alessandra was fired up now as she showed off her bicep just before dropping an elbow into her chest. Esposito then took off for the far side, and rebounded into a diving elbow drop to Victoria’s head before she hooked the outside leg for the cover. 

Zack: Alessandra’s welcoming us to the gun show there, and ready to make history as half of the new tag champions!

ONE!!!

As soon as Stringer’s hand hit the mat once, Victoria shoved her off the cover. Alessandra wasted no time in getting to her feet, and taking off for the ropes again. Havoc had barely gotten to a vertical base before Alessandra snapped off a running neckbreaker, and then rolled to her corner to tag in her partner. 

Claire: Alessandra does love using those neckbreakers and here’s the chemistry that is a hallmark of Target Acquired as we see the fresh Nadia enter the match.

Nadia joined her in the ring before they both pulled Victoria up, and sent her into the ropes for a flapjack on the rebound. They each grabbed a leg, and yanked them apart like a wishbone before Alessandra left the ring. Nadia tagged her back in quickly, and then was scooped over her partner’s shoulder for a running powerslam to drive her onto Victoria’s body. The brunette rolled out of the ring as Nadia hooked the leg for the cover.

Claire: Excellent team work!! I’m not sure it’s enough to pick up the win but Vicky’s going to have to expend energy kicking out and it keeps her on her back.

ONE!!!

TW-NOO!!

Again, Victoria shoved her opponent away. Nadia quickly got to her feet, bouncing off the near side with a running kneelift into her face as Havoc was getting up. It sent her backwards a couple steps before a handspring back elbow rocked her into the ropes.

Zack: The tempo picks up when Nadia’s in the ring, and she’s hitting Victoria from every conceivable direction!

Havoc leaned against the ropes gathering herself before Nadia took off again. She picked up speed as she came off the far side, and left her feet for a high cross body block. But Havoc caught her in mid air, carrying her like a small child and shaking her head. The blonde tried to get free, but instead found herself driven into the mat with a Michinoku driver. Victoria glared down at her before getting back to her feet. Jacqui shouted at her to stay on her.

Claire: And that, right there. is Havoc’s power on full display. Caught her like she’d catch a pillow thrown towards her and the slam at the end? That’s certainly gonna stop Nadia in her tracks - like when they crash test a car. 

Zack: It was like watching King Kong snatch a helicopter out of the sky. Nadia took one too many risks right there, I think.

Still sitting on the mat, Victoria used repeated leg drops across Nadia’s chest, slamming it into her body before getting back to her feet. She caught Alessandra by surprise next by using a running boot that was aimed at her instead of her partner. It sent Esposito to the floor, and Victoria followed up with a Garvin stomp on Nadia. She grabbed her by the arms to sit her up, and then stomped away at her chest over and over before one last big stomp to her face drove her back to the mat.

Zack: Victoria’s got full control now, and just used Nadia like a doormat to wipe her feet off. You’re seeing part of the reason these two have been Future Shock Tag Champions for about six months now.

Claire: The Doomsday Sisters absolutely love to let their foes know who’s the boss and they do that by putting them in a whole world of hurt in record time. Nadia’s gonna have Havoc’s boot print on her chest after all those stomps.

She yanked the blonde back to her feet into a bear hug, but instead ran her back first into the neutral corner. Victoria turned around, and did it again to the other neutral corner, and finally into her team’s corner the third time. She tagged in Sienna, and they took turns delivering thunderous claps to each side of Nadia’s chest. They’d raise their hand a little higher each time, and the slapping sound resonated through the arena. Victoria finally left the ring as Sienna measured and delivered European uppercuts to snap Nadia’s head back again and again. Minogue watched from the champions’ corner with a smile, nodding her head with each shot.

Zack: Nadia is in the worst place possible in a tag match with the Doomsday Sisters. This is like shooting fish in a barrel for the tag champions. 

Claire: Those are concussive chops that are being landed on Nadia’s chest. Just listen to the sound of them landing - it’s like she’s being hit with an iron bar.

Sienna spun her around, and sat her on the top rope facing the crowd. She then grabbed her arms, and fell forward with a crucifix powerbomb followed by a leg hook and the cover.

Zack: From the top rope too! The Doomsday Sisters are gonna retain the tag titles at Relentless!!!

ONE!!!

TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

TH-NOOOO!!

Alessandra was halfway into the ring when she spotted Nadia get her foot across the bottom rope. Sienna saw it too, but it seemed to amuse her as she dragged her back to her feet and put her right back in her team’s corner.

Claire: Nadia fortunate to be close enough to the ropes to get her foot on the rope. Or maybe it’s unfortunate because it looks Sienna plans on hurting her a lot, lot more before they’re done tonight.

Sienna tagged har partner, and started to Irish whip her across the ring, only for Victoria to reverse it mid-course and send Sienna back into the corner for an avalanche splash. A double foot choke followed that before they scooped Nadia up together for a double knee gutbuster that folded her into a ball on the canvas. Sienna stepped out, and was immediately tagged back into the match. She used a powerbomb across Victoria’s knee to punish Nadia further before Havoc left the ring again. The look on Jacqui’s face was clearly delighted now.

Claire: The Doomsday Sisters are really rolling here and Nadia is in big big trouble right now. She needs to get the tag as soon as possible.

Zack: The sickest part of all this is I think they’re having fun. Nadia is being decimated, and the tag champions are like two bulls in a china shop.

Sienna pulled her back up again, and drove her back into that same corner once more. She tagged Victoria back into the match, and they each grabbed her around the neck for what looked like a chokeslam. But as soon as they lifted her up, she managed to counter with a pair of knees into their bodies followed by a double DDT. The fans came back to life then as the champions were face down on the mat, and Nadia was lying face up between them near the corner. 

Claire: Nadia’s got herself an opening…but it’s an awfully long way to go to get Alessandra and every moment she takes is a chance for Vicky and Sienna to recover and stop her dead.

Zack: Laying right between them at the same time, like being in a pit of vipers. I know she’s hurting, she has to be. But she has to move and move now!

Nadia sat up first, and got her bearings before she started to crawl towards her corner. Danger rolled out to the apron, and Havoc caught Nadia by the foot. Both managed to get to their feet, though Nadia was on one foot hopping at this point. The Aussie yanked her forward for a short clothesline, but Beaulieu ducked underneath it and pasted Sienna with a spinning backfist to send her off the apron. Havoc turned around, only to have her head snatched for a springboard bulldog that put her down again. Now Nadia was only ⅔ of the way across from her tag partner as she and Victoria lay on the mat. Jacqui shouted at Victoria to stop her, pounding the mat as well to make her point.

Zack: I admire Nadia’s spunk! She knows where she is, and she’s hitting anything and everything that looks like a Doomsday Sister. 

Claire: She almost has to. You know if she left one standing then she’d have to deal with her sooner than later and she absolutely has to make the tag to Alessandra here.

Nadia got her bearings, and started heading for her corner again. Alessandra had her hand out for the tag, and the French beauty lunged towards her. But Sienna yanked Alessandra off the apron by her foot from behind, causing the brunette to smack her head off the apron. Nadia looked around for her partner when she didn’t get the tag. She got back to her feet, seeing Sienna on the floor and headed up to the top rope for a suicide plancha that wiped out the Aussie. 

Zack: Wow! Sienna never saw that coming! Alessandra’s down, Nadia still needs a tag here but she’s gotta get her partner back onto the apron to make it!

Claire: All credit to Nadia for wiping out Sienna right there…but like you said, she needs the tag and Victoria is getting her bearings while Beaulieu’s out here.

Nadia tried to help her partner back onto the apron. But it didn’t last long as two hands wrapped around her head. Victoria picked Nadia up by her head with both hands over the top rope back into the ring with a show of massive power! Beaulieu’s feet dangled under her before Victoria drove her into the mat with a modified atomic drop. She quickly went for the cover, and hooked both legs this time.

Claire: HOL-EE!!! I think Nadia might be a couple of inches shorter after getting dropped like that!

ONE!!!

TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-NO!

Alessandra made the save as she came through the ropes, grabbing Victoria around the waist and dead lifted her into a release German suplex, leaving all three women on the canvas.

Zack: What a save by Alessandra! Nadia got her back onto the apron, and was that ever crucial to keeping this tag title match going! We got three in the ring, and Sienna’s still getting her marbles together on the floor.

Claire: We’ve been talking about the power of the Doomsday Sisters and Alessandra just went and sent a reminder that we should include her in that discussion too! She took Victoria for one heck of a ride!

The brunette got back to her feet, and staggered into her corner to step out and reach her hand for a tag. Nadia was next to start moving. She sat up with a dazed look, clutching her head and neck as Alessandra called her name with her hand out as far as she could reach. Then Victoria began to stir when she sat up, and saw the scene in front of her with the challengers. 

Zack: Nadia’s clutching her head and neck, and who could blame her?! Her partner is, by no means, fresh as a daisy, but she wants the tag. And Nadia needs to let her have it.

Claire: And has to let her have it quickly because the Champion is starting to get it together here and she’s going to want to end this match if she can.

Nadia shot towards her corner to make the tag to a pop from the crowd as Victoria was just less than an inch from stopping her. Alessandra stepped through the ropes, and the fists started flying just like at the beginning of the match. Haymaker shots landed one after another, rocking Victoria back into the ropes. Esposito whipped her across for the ride, and actually popped the Aussie into the air for a sitout spinebuster! 

Zack: I have never seen anyone use a pop up spinebuster on the Doomsday Sisters! Alessandra is running on pure adrenaline!

Claire: We’re seeing the Doomsday Sisters getting a taste of their own medicine! Are they going to be able to cope with it and find a way through? Or is brute force the way to solve the riddle?

Alessandra got back to her feet, clearly revitalized as she pulled Victoria onto her shoulders into position for her new finisher. The fans came to life once more as she balanced her over those shoulders…at least until a running boot from Sienna caused her to drop her partner. Esposito staggered, and was scooped up into Sienna’s fireman’s carry cutter! Danger rolled out of the ring, and Victoria went for the cover!

Zack: CRASH AND BURN!! And Victoria’s gonna pick up the scraps!!

ONE!!!!!

TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-WHOA!

As the three was coming down, Nadia landed a curb stomp from the nearest corner that smacked Victoria’s face into the canvas. She was about to help her partner make the cover when Sienna snatched her out of the ring by her feet into a brawl on the floor.

Claire: Huge save!! But now Nadia has an angered Sienna in her face while both legal women are down and out!! Whoever gets up first has to be favorite to take home the titles!!

Both Victoria and Alessandra were moving at about the same speed, and it was Esposito who went to try to scoop the champion up again. But Havoc broke her grip, landed behind her, and went to grab her from behind. But as soon as she tried, Alessandra countered with a stunner that stumbled her backwards until Esposito scooped her up into her F5!  She dove for the cover as Stringer dropped to count.

Zack: LOOK AT THAT!!

ONE!!!!!

TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

Sienna almost made the save until Nadia yanked her out of the ring by her foot. When the bell sounded, the French beauty dove into the ring and hugged her partner as they both said on their knees. 

Claire: Awesome power from Alessandra!!! She manhandled the powerhouse up onto her shoulders and spiked her on her head! 

Lexi: Your winners by pinfall…..AND NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEWWWW Future Shock Tag Team Champions………………..TARGET ACQUIRED!!!

The girls got to their feet before the referee raised their hands in victory, and then awarded them the tag titles. They both hugged the titles tightly with tears on their faces before raising them to show the crowd.

Zack: Congratulations to Nadia and Alessandra on finally capturing the tag titles that have eluded them for some time! That was an incredible showing, and could just be the first piece of the puzzle come Global Wars on April 26th when they may add the Diamond and Future Shock titles to the collection.

Claire: By this time next month they could be packing more gold than Mr. T!! And they certainly deserve to enjoy this moment and savor this victory; they’ve taken on one of the toughest, most powerful, most dominant tag teams in Future Shock history - possibly the best tag team in Future Shock history - and picked up a very hard fought win.

Zack: The Doomsday Sisters got edged out tonight in a match that looked like it could have gone either way more than once. But Target Acquired now sit atop the tag team mountain of Future Shock, and I’m positive teams like the Shaolin Belles, Latina Heat, and the former two time champions here will be looking for them.

Claire: Target Acquired have gotten a target pinned to their backs now, but I think they might actually relish being the hunted instead of the hunter for a while and welcome any and all teams to come and take a shot at them.

The new champions celebrated in the ring amid thunderous support from the crowd before the show went to a commercial for Global Wars on FFW All Access next month.



Redemption Lost

A clip from the most recent episode of Future Shock shows the comments Adam Grant had when he was approached by Cody Kincaid, who was seeking to redeem himself with the Future Shock Director. It was quickly clear Adam had no interest at all in the idea. The show returns back to the arena, and there we find Cody and his wife, Scarlett, with Samantha Star. The words “Earlier Today…” are shown at the top of the screen as the trio are sat around an oval table. 

Cody: Things didn’t go quite well with Adam, I’m afraid. He’s still pretty angry with me about everything that happened. I’m sure you saw it on the show, right? 

Samantha: When have you known me not to watch every second FFW is being televised? That includes Future Shock, Mr. Kincaid.

Scarlett: But, that’s understandable, given everything that’s happened. We’re not ready to give up just yet. Sometimes, forgiveness requires time - it heals all wounds, right? And I know Cody wasn’t just apologizing to try and get his job back…might just have to take a little while to convince Adam of that. 

Samantha’s attention went back to Cody.

Samantha: I’m sure you can understand his point of view. Has it actually been months since you two last spoke? 

Cody nodded..reluctantly.

Cody: I thought about it more than once, but I didn’t think he’d take the call. And I also didn’t think I’d be here again in front of you trying to fix everything.

Samantha: That’s not Mr. Grant’s problem, is it? If you had made an effort before recently, he might have been more receptive. But days after I give you that list, that’s the first time you try to make it right? Surely you see how that could look the way it does to him.

Scarlett nodded her head.

Scarlett: Sure, things could’ve gone better…better choices could’ve been made in the last few months. But we can’t change what’s happened before, can we? All we can do is try to do better moving forward which is exactly what we’re trying to do right now. Small steps…but we’ve taken the first steps, which is something. A start.

Samantha: I’m curious to know why you wanted to see me. My rule hasn’t changed. If you don’t get him on the same page, it’s already over. Are you here to tell me you’re not going to try? 

Cody: No no, not at all. I was just hoping you had any ideas on another way to approach this situation. 

Samantha: I’m not going to get involved with it, Mr. Kincaid. Your job is to find a way to make things right. Obviously just merely apologizing to him didn’t work. Perhaps if you showed you meant it. How you show that is up to you. I’m not going to tell him to forgive you, or tell him to do anything as it relates to this. I suggest you do some thinking and figure out something that will show him that your words aren’t hollow.

Cody sat silent for a few seconds before he answered.

Cody: I assume he’s going to be at the pay per view tonight then? 

Samantha: He certainly will, especially since part of the Future Shock roster are being spotlighted. 

Cody: Yeah. 

He looked back at his wife. 

Cody: We flew all the way to Japan, might as well give it another shot tonight, right? 

Scarlett: It couldn’t hurt and we’ve got absolutely nothing to lose do we? Like you said, we’ve flown to Japan, so why not? Maybe we can make a little bit of progress and take a step forwards.

Cody: I’ll think of something, and will talk to him tonight.

That got a nod of approval from the owner of FFW before the show cut back to the ring for the next match.

Kat: The following contest is scheduled for one fall to a finish.

Zack: A lot of people have been curious about this match, but Bianca Reed probably doesn’t care. She has no idea who’s about to accept her open challenge, but her confidence level is such that she thinks she’ll cut through them regardless of who it is.

Lexi: There is a fine line between confidence and arrogance and you just know that Bianca is definitely walking a tightrope between the two.

Diamonds are a girl's best friend, diamonds are a girl's best friend
Southern girl in me I ain't afraid to catch a case, VVS's on me and I flooded out the face
Diamonds are a girl's best friend, diamonds are a girl's best friend
I don't need you, I've got flooded out baguettes
I don't need you, all my diamonds dripping wet (Cartier)


Blue lights flood the arena with two spotlights centered on the entrance ramp as Bianca Reed walks out, stopping at the top of the ramp and lifting her shades to the top of her head. She rolls her eyes at the crowd and treats them to some smack talk as she struts down the ramp, making a “blah blah blah” gesture as she gets closer to the ring.

Kat: From Atlanta, Georgia, she is the Princess of House Reed, “Killer B” Bianca Reed!

I'm a super shero, bitch, don't try me hoe, bad like a villain, I pop it and then I reload
All the best things in life come for free, but don't you think that applies to me
I do what I want 'cause I know that I'm hot, I ain't a band but you know how I rock
Don't need no clippers to give you a chop, took me to dinner then I took him out
I like it when you call me crazy, long as you keep callin' baby


Upon reaching the ring, Bianca hops up onto the apron and leans back against the ropes, flashing a cocky smirk at the crowd before waving and ducking through into the ring. Walking to the center of the mat, she poses and takes off her sunglasses, tossing them casually to the side. Flicking her hair over her shoulder, she makes her way to the corner and stretches out over the top turnbuckle, giving a little wave to her opponent as she waits for the match to start.

Zack: Bianca made the challenge before her match at the most recent edition of Breaking Point, and said she wanted to be on this event. She didn’t care who it was she had to face. I think that’s potentially a very dangerous decision, especially with all the new talent we’ve seen arrive in FFW and Future Shock this year.

Lexi: Never mind just the new talent, it's potentially a very dangerous decision against the existing talent too!

Zack: There is a palpable anticipation here for whoever this might be. I asked around today, and didn’t get anything confirmed. Maybe it’s someone from Future Shock. Maybe it’s another of the new additions to the roster FFW has been signing. Or maybe it’s….

A keyboard could be heard playing across the arena, and as soon as it does a huge red carpet could be seen rolling all the way to the ring. The Mega Man 3 Intro Remake is loud as all of the fans begin to get up in excitement. Across the curtains we can see something charging up like a Mega Buster and as soon as it finishes charging a huge pyro goes off as a figure emerges through the curtains in cyan and blue wrestling attire. She smiles twirling around as the fans begin to go nuts. A blonde emerges from the curtains as she claps her hands for Crystal.

Kat: Ladies and gentlemen making her way to the ring being accompanied by her wife Seleana standing at 5’5, 115 pounds she is the “Burning Rose” Crystal Zdunich!!!!!!

Crystal is excited as she sprints to the rope clapping the hands of all of the fans that are cheering her on. She jumps onto the apron and without hesitation she jumps up as high as she possibly can before doing a split to enter the ring. She blows kisses to the fans before bouncing about looking at the entire crowd. Seleana takes her place at ringside smiling. Crystal waits anxiously for the match to begin.

Zack: Well I’ll be damned. It’s Crystal Zdunich! We haven’t seen her in years!  She’s done damn near everything there was to do in FFW, including a 2 time Evolution Champion, 2 time Trios Champion before the title was retired, she won the Femme for All tournament, and she’s in the FFW Hall of Fame too!  I think Bianca just stepped in it!

Lexi: Gotta admit I'm not familiar with Crystal personally, so I'm looking forward to seeing what she has to offer.

The fans were giving Crystal a thunderous welcome as Bianca stared across the ring at the Hall of Famer. Referee Stepehn Wilson checked both women for hidden objects and called for the bell. The fans were still chanting for the returning veteran as Bianca looked around the arena at the fans making all the noise. Reed’s temper flared as she took off towards Zdunich, looking to blindside her as she was looking at the fans. But Crystal ducked the shot, and spun her around before she started unloading with right hands in a flurry that further ignited the crowd. 

Zack: Bianca looking to jumpstart things, but you aren’t gonna surprise a woman with Zdunich’s years of ring experience! Look at those rights!

Lexi: These fans are definitely happy to see her aren't they? 

She whipped Reed to the far side, and caught her on the rebound with a big back body drop to the canvas. Bianca popped back to her feet, going for a haymaker shot. But Zdunich spun her around, and used an atomic drop to send her stumbling towards the ropes. A running dropkick to her chest sent “Killer B” through the ropes to the floor before Crystal started waving her arms up and down to get the crowd louder.

Zack: Crystal has this crowd eating out of her hand, and Bianca just got deposited here in front of us like yesterday’s garbage!

Lexi: I wonder if Bianca's possibly wondering just what she's gotten herself into yet?

Bianca got back to her feet on the floor, and pounded the mat with her hand. She looked back at the fans once again, and looked back in time to see Crystal launching herself through the ropes with a Superman dive that took her down to the floor. Zdunich got back to her feet, nodding her head before shoving Bianca back into the ring under the bottom rope. She rolled in after her, and pulled her back to her feet. “Killer B” was sent to the far side with an Irish whip, and rebounded with Crystal almost catching her with a spinning roundhouse kick. But Reed ducked it, and raked her eyes with both hands before she could turn around again. 

Zack: Zdunich was picking up massive momentum, and Bianca threw a bucket of cold water on that whole plan. Going for the eyes will do it every time.

Lexi: Bianca needed to buy herself some breathing room there and love it or hate, that eye rake definitely did that for her.

Bianca grabbed her head, and dragged her face along the top rope to further the damage. She quickly shoved her into the nearest corner, already resuming talking some trash before firing off a knife edge chop. One after another landed against Crystal’s chest before she sat her on the top turnbuckle. Reed climbed up after her to deliver a belly to belly overhead suplex that sent the Hall of Famer crashing to the mat before she dove across her with a leg hook for the cover.

Zack: Bianca with the cover! This seems a little premature to me, Lexi.

ONE!!!

T-NO.

Crystal kicked out and shoved Bianca off her at the same time. Reed immediately mounted her after that to rain right hands into the side of her head until the referee warned her about the closed fists. She got back to her feet, and kicked proverbial dust behind her onto the Hall of Famer.

Lexi: Way too early, Zack and I can't imagine these fans would have been happy with such a premature ending.

That didn’t sit too well with the crowd though. When she reached down to pull Crystal up, she got a palm thrust to her neck that stopped her cold. Crystal got back to her feet, and started peppering her with forearms to the side of her head. She whipped her into the far corner, and followed her in with a meteora to the chest that crumpled Reed to a seat against the corner. The Hall of Famer hit the far ropes, and came back with a running hip attack to the head that landed perfectly. Now with the crowd behind her all over again, Zdunich dragged Reed to the center of the ring. A standing shooting star press landed perfectly before she hooked the leg for the cover. 

Lexi: Crystal is going for a cover of her own, but I still think this is way too soon to actually work.

ONE!!!

TWOOOOOOO!!!

Bianca kicked out before the three came down. Zdunich pulled her back to her feet, landing a few more forearms to the side of her head. She hooked her head next for something, but Bianca shoved her backwards to break her grip. With the Hall of Famer off balance, Bianca burst forward with a codebreaker to send her back to the mat.

Zack: I haven’t seen Crystal in the ring in years, but it certainly doesn’t look like she’s lost a step. She’s holding her own admirably against “Killer B” tonight.

Crystal tried to get to her feet, but Bianca began firing kicks into her body to stop that. She finally pulled her up, and scooped her over her shoulders into a gutbuster. When she spotted the Hall of Famer starting to get up, Reed took off towards the ropes and used them for a springboard sidekick that dropped the Hall of Famer like a rock.

Zack: She calls that JUMPIN’ JACK, and Bianca’s back in control once again. The momentum of this match has been swinging back and forth like a wrecking ball.

Lexi: That's the sign of a good match if you ask me.

Feeling more confident now, Bianca took off towards the ropes again. She went for an Asai moonsault, but Crystal got her knees up in time. Reed landed across them, and it doubled her up in pain before Zdunich was back to her feet. She followed up with a rolling senton, and then headed up to the top rope. The fans got to their feet as they saw the high flier ascend, but Bianca rolled in the other direction out of the ring to the floor. That only got boos from the Saitama crowd.

Zack: It might not be popular with the fans, but there’s no reason to stay there if you know your opponent’s about to come off the top of you. 

Lexi: Can't really blame Bianca for doing the smart thing, who's going to purposely lay there for someone to potentially squash you?

Crystal shook her head, and hopped down to her feet to follow after her. By the time she rolled out to get her, Bianca was halfway under the ring. Zdunich grabbed her feet, and started to pull her out. And when she did, Bianca had something in her hand. Reed kicked her in the groin with one foot and tossed the contents of a cup in her hands towards Crystal. And what was in the cup? 

Zack: COCKROACHES!! That’s something Bianca has been known to use, but we haven’t seen it in a while.

Lexi: Ewwwww… nah, c'mon, why does it have to be cockroaches?!

Crystal screamed as she felt them crawling over her, and Bianca got to her feet, clearly amused. She watched as Crystal tried to get them off her before Reed backed up the ramp. She watched the creepy bugs on her opponent, clearly finding it very funny before waving off the ring and returning to the back.

Zack: Crystal can’t get those things off her fast enough, and who can blame her?! I think Bianca’s had enough for tonight! I hope Reed doesn’t think this is over!

Lexi: My skin is crawling just watching, I don't think I can look! Tell me when they're gone, Zack.

The referee called for the bell due to the low blow, and Crystal shuddered as she continued trying to get them off. Then the show went to a commercial for Future Shock Global Wars.

Kat: The following contest is scheduled for one fall, and it is No Disqualifications!

Zack: Given how their last meeting went, I see why FFW management decided to make this one No DQ. That match was a wild melee that barely stayed in the ring, and saw chairs come into play. Tonight, they can hopefully settle it once and for all.

Lexi: I have a feeling it would have been over before it even got started if it wasn’t no DQ, because I highly doubt either one of these women would have held back from laying into each other. 

The lights fade before the viking horn starts in.  As the first verse starts, Becka comes out dressed like a viking warrior.

Ships on vigor of the waves are skimming
Barren summits to the verdant plains
Each horizon is a new beginning
Rise and reign

Far from the fjords and the ice cold currents
Ravens soar over new frontiers
Songs and sagas of a fate determined
Shields and spears
 
Vows of favor or the thrill of plunder
Pull together for the clan and kin
Clank of hammers and the crash of thunder
Pound within


Becka makes her way down the ramp, high-fiving fans as she makes her way to the ring.  Along the way, she picks out a little girl and gives her the faux-fur cloak that she is wearing. 

Oh-ho-oh
The echoes of eternity
Oh-ho-oh
Valhalla calling me
Oh-ho-oh
To pluck the strings of destiny
Oh-ho-oh
Valhalla calling me
Valhalla calling me


Becka’s outfit looks similar to what Lagertha would wear when she wasn’t in battle sans the sword.  Becka takes a lap around the ring, soaking in the cheers from the fans before stepping up onto the ring apron.

Sails a' swaying on the crimson rivers
Blood and glory in the fighting fields
Shields a' shattered into splintered timbers
Iron and steel

Fires are rising and the bells are ringing
Glory take us into Odin's halls
Golden glimmer and the sound of singing
Asgard's call


Becka smirks to the crowd as she hooks her arms on the top rope and leans out away from the ring.

Oh-ho-oh
The echoes of eternity
Oh-ho-oh
Valhalla calling me
Oh-ho-oh
To pluck the strings of destiny
Oh-ho-oh
Valhalla calling me
Valhalla calling me


Kat:  Hailing from New Orleans, Louisiana, weighing in at 168 lbs.  She is the harbinger of vengeance.  Introducing………….REBECKA HATE.

Wind and the waves will carry me
Wind and the waves will set me free
Wind and the waves will carry me
Wind and the waves will set me free

Oh-ho-oh
The echoes of eternity
Oh-ho-oh
Valhalla calling me
Oh-ho-oh
To pluck the strings of destiny
Oh-ho-oh
Valhalla calling me
Valhalla calling me


Becky climbs into the ring and sits on the turnbuckle as she waits for the bell to ring.

Zack: Rebecka’s disdain for the Gold Standard began long before she returned to FFW. She had been chasing Lacey, who was SVW Champion before this. So this vendetta of hers has now crossed two promotions, and doesn’t seem to have gotten any less volatile.

Lexi: Is there anyone who doesn’t dislike the Gold Standard? Except for those in it or managed by Kyle Kilmeade. They’re not exactly a likeable bunch are they?

As the opening of ‘Pour Some Sugar on Me’ by Def Leppard starts to play, Kyle Kilmeade steps through the curtain and holds it open. Stacey Sky steps out onto the stage wearing her ring gear which consists of a black bra-style top, with gold trim. A black and gold cheerleader style skirt, and black boots with a gold trim.  

Pour some sugar on me
Ooh, in the name of love
Pour some sugar on me
C'mon, fire me up
Pour your sugar on me
I can't get enough


She stops at the start of the ramp and runs her hands down her sides until she reaches her hips and then stands with her hands on hips for a moment, before she starts moving towards the ring with Kyle walking slightly behind her. 

I'm hot, sticky sweet
From my head to my feet, yeah


As the line hot, sticky sweet plays, she raises her finger to her mouth and tilts her head to one side. Then she sways her hips, lowering herself down at the same time, before popping back up and blowing a kiss from one side to the other. 

Kat: Making her way to the ring, hailing from Anaheim, California and accompanied by Kyle Kilmeade…………….“Sensational” Stacey Sky

Listen! red light, yellow light, green-a-light go!
Crazy little woman in a one man show
Mirror queen, mannequine, rhythm of love
Sweet dream, saccharine, loosen up
Loosen up


She takes off at a run towards the ring and then jumps up onto the apron, where she immediately drops down into the splits. She leans forwards and grabs hold of her foot, lowering her head so she can roll under the bottom rope, still in the splits. Once in the ring, she moves up to her knees, throwing her head back as she does. She licks her lips and gives a devilish smile out to the crowd. 

You gotta squeeze a little, squeeze a little
Tease a little more
Easy operator come a knockin' on my door
Sometime, anytime, sugar me sweet
Little miss innocent sugar me, yeah, yeah
Give a little more.


As her music starts to fade she gets to her feet and goes to her corner, climbing up, she sits on the top turnbuckle with her legs crossed and shares a few last minute words with her manager on the apron as she awaits the start of the match.  

Zack: Much like her opponent, Stacey Sky is a woman who knows success. She’s been Future Shock Champion, SVW Adrenaline Champion, and is currently the #1 contender to the Phoenix title held by Mara Werth. But she’s also as dangerous as she is beautiful. 

Lexi: I think vicious is a very good word to describe Stacey Sky, and she doesn’t seem to be one to back away from a fight. Which is probably a good thing because I think she’s gonna have one hell of a fight on her hands tonight from Rebecka. 

Referee Kevin Fisk called for the bell barely in the nick of time before the two women stormed towards each other in the center of the ring. And that’s when the fists started flying as the pair unloaded on one another with the crowd solidly behind Rebecka. And it was the SVW Hall of Famer who was getting the better of the exchange. The punches turned into a pair of throat thrusts that stopped Stacey briefly before Hate scooped her up for a massive beal that sent her flying to the canvas. The fans got a little louder at the power display. And as Stacey popped back to her feet, Hate mowed her down with a running clothesline. The blonde was back up again though, tackling Rebecka as she turned around with a Thesz press to fire away even more shots.

Zack: It’s almost like all those shots didn’t do anything but fire Stacey up more than she already was! 

Lexi: I’d say that Rebecka has a strength advantage over Stacey, but that’s not stopping the former cheerleader, is it?

Hate shoved Sky off her, and got back to her feet. Stacey was already vertical, and launched towards her with a clothesline that sent the powerhouse over the top rope to the floor. But Hate landed on her feet, glaring up at Stacey as she launched herself over the top rope with a suicide dive that wiped the brunette out on the floor. Stacey got to her feet, and yanked a chair out from under the ring as Rebecka was getting back to her feet.

Zack: Remember there’s no disqualifications! And this match is picking up almost exactly where their previous meeting ended! Except it’s Stacey packing the steel!

Lexi: I had a feeling this was going to get real brutal, real fast, and it looks like I might be right. 

Hate got to her feet near the post, and Stacey went for her head with a wild shot. Rebecka ducked it, letting the chair collide with the post. Hate had ducked around behind her, catching her before she could turn around with a big boot to the back of her head that sent Stacey face first into the steel post instead. Before she could turn around, Hate scooped her up into a full nelson slam to the floor. She immediately rolled her back into the ring, and grabbed the chair before following after her.

Zack: They are leaving nothing to chance, and swinging for the fences! Stacey got planted on the floor, and it’s back inside now. But Hate….she’s got the chair! It has to end in the ring, that’s the only rule!

Lexi: You know, it’s the poor chair I feel sorry for. Sitting there minding its own business and suddenly it’s a deadly weapon!

Stacey tried to get up just as Hate brought the chair down towards her back. But the blonde rolled out of the way, and let her hit the mat instead. Becka spun around, and went to nail her with the chair again. But Stacey used a roundhouse kick that sent the chair into Becka’s face. It staggered her backwards, and the blonde darted towards her. She connected with a codebreaker with the chair between her knees and Becka’s body. Hate collapsed to the mat on impact, and Stacey went for the cover.

Zack: I’ve never seen that in my life! This may be over already!

ONE!!!

TWOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

T-NOO!!

Becka got her shoulder up, and Sky immediately got back to her feet. She scooped the chair up, and started slamming it against Hate’s back when she tried to get up again. Shot after shot to her back landed, driving her back down to the mat.

Lexi: Rebecka is made of strong stuff clearly, but just how much can a body take when it’s getting battered with a steel chair?!

Stacey sat the chair up in the center of the ring, though the seat was starting to look warped. She measured Rebecka as she was trying to get up again, and darted past her looking for a bulldog that would send her face first into the chair. But Hate shoved her off before she could get a good grip. Stacey stopped herself just short of the chair, and turned around into a goozle from Rebecka into a chokeslam onto the chair. It broke apart beneath her as Hate took in deep breaths, looking around and listening to the roar of the crowd supporting her.

Zack: Good Lord, that chair broke into pieces off the chokeslam! And now it’s Rebecka standing tall with the fans in Saitama 100% behind her! 

Lexi: That flipped on Stacey real quick and Rebecka has taken charge. This could be a very painful night for Stacey judging by the look on Rebecka’s face. 

Becka grabbed one of the broken chair legs, and applied a crossface with it across Stacey’s throat in the center of the ring. The referee dropped down to check for a submission, but didn’t get one as Hate pulled back on the metal leg. Fisk asked again, but Stacey refused to give up. She pulled at it with her hands to try to make it easier to breathe, but Hate shook it loose and pulled back on the hold anyway.

Zack: Hate wants to choke Stacey out right here. I haven’t seen this side of Rebecka Hate in a long long time! 

Lexi: Hate by name, Hate by nature… at least when it comes to Stacey Sky apparently. 

Hate leaned back a little further, causing Stacey’s face to darken in color. It was at that point that Kyle climbed up onto the apron. The referee told him to get down, and Becka released the hold and got up to meet him. Kilmeade stood his ground on the apron as Becka approached him, and wrapped a hand around his neck!

Zack: Kyle saw Stacey was in trouble…and he just turned himself into a sitting duck! This isn’t gonna end well!

Lexi: I’m not sure that was the smartest thing Kyle’s ever done. Stacey’s trained for taking this kind of punishment, he isn’t. 

The fans got much louder as Kyle was lifted off his feet with both of Becka’s hands around his throat. A redhead hopped over the barricade, and snatched one of the broken chair legs to swat upwards between Hate’s legs. The SVW Hall of Famer let go, and dropped to a knee as the redead was revealed to be Abigail Lindsay. As Rebecka tried to get back to her feet, Stacey was up again and delivered a standing sidekick into her ear to send her toppling over against the corner. She glanced down to her manager, seeing Abi was looking out for him and the blonde’s face grew in anger.

Zack: Kilmeade’s personal insurance policy pays off again. Abigail Lindsay may have saved him a broken neck, and now Stacey….there’s the red mist! Look at her face!!

Lexi: Uh oh, that never ends well. Rebecka could be in trouble here. 

Becka had no time to recover before Stacey started hammering knees into her head with impunity. Several of them connected, crushing Hate’s skull between her knee and the middle turnbuckle. She finally grabbed her foot, and yanked her towards the center of the ring and then rolled out to the floor. She stormed past the broadcast booth, and shoved Kat out of her seat before taking her microphone and heading back to the ring.

Zack: Kat just got woman-handled, I hope she’s alright. No one is safe out here! Stacey’s got the stick, and I don’t think she plans to do a lot of talking1

Lexi: I think you’re right, I don’t think she plans on doing a lot of talking, and I really hate to think about what she is planning… I guess we’ll see soon enough though. 

Rebecka was very slow moving at this point as Stacey measured her with a mic shot to her forehead. The sound reverberated through the arena. It toppled her back to the mat before Stacey rolled her onto her back, and bludgeoned her with it multiple times until the brunette had a gash on her forehead. She hurled it back at the timekeeper’s table, and started pummeling Hate with right hands to make the cut worse.

Zack: Hate’s bleeding, and Stacey has shown no sign that she’s ready to try to end this match. She’s more unhinged than I can remember!

Lexi: Rebecka needs to find some response here, or get herself the hell outta dodge to recover for a moment or two, or this really isn’t going to end well for her. 

Sky got back to her feet amid a chorus of boos from the Saitama crowd, and headed towards the far corner. She began unfastening the turnbuckle pad to expose the metal hook underneath, and then doubled back. She pulled Hate up, and started to run her towards the corner. But Hate got her foot up, blocking the contact. Stacey tried again, another block. But Rebecka used a back elbow to the face to make her let go before the powerhouse scooped her up for a snake eyes against the exposed metal. It sent Stacey stumbling backwards holding her face before Becka grabbed her with both hands around the throat for a Rydeen bomb to the mat! She immediately went for the cover with both legs hooked!

Zack: I don’t know where Hate’s getting this from, it’s gotta be pure adrenaline at this point! And a thunderous sitout powerbomb, that’ll do it!!

ONE!!!

TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-NOPE.

Stacey got her shoulder up before the three came down, causing Hate to double check with the referee that it was just a two count. Fisk assured her it was as they both got back to their feet. The Hall of Famer touched her head to see her own blood before she dragged her thumb across her neck to signal the end was near.

Lexi: Rebecka is not happy at seeing her own blood is she? Stacey is in trouble here, Rebecka is looking to end her. 

She dragged Stacey to her feet, and tried to get her into position for her pumphandle slam finisher. But Stacey was ready for it, and drove Hate backwards into the exposed corner. The metal connected with her back, and Stacey climbed up to the second rope. She brought down several elbows into the top of her head until Hate crumpled to a seat in the corner, and then she used a wrecking ball dropkick into her chest from the middle rope. Sky yanked her out of the corner, and hooked the far leg for the cover.

Zack: Becka’s ribs could be cracked, and her head is still a mess!

ONE!!!

TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-NO!

Becka barely kicked out in time, and Stacey shook her head, muttering angrily to herself as she headed for the corner to make her way to the top rope. 

Lexi: Stacey’s going high, and that’s not going to spell anything good for Rebecka. 

She launched herself into her 450 splash…but Hate rolled out of the way. She connected with the canvas instead before Rebecka rolled her up quickly. Fisk dropped to make the count.

Zack: She missed, Becka with a quick cover looking to end it!!

ONE!!!

TWOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

Fisk called for the bell as Becka began to get to her feet, but Stacey wasn’t far behind her. When he raised her hand, Stacey jumped her with a backstabber and rolled on top of her to deliver more right hands.

Lexi: Rebecka’s got the three count, but Stacey ain’t done!

Kat: Your winner by pinfall….REBECKA HATE!!

Zack: It’s not over, Kat! They still wanna fight!

The referee waved towards the back as the fight continued, prompting security to usher down the ramp. Kyle managed to pull Stacey out of the ring, and taking her hand as he spoke to her while Rebecka sat up with a withering glare towards the blonde. She was about to go out after her as security flooded the ring.

Zack: This didn’t settle a damn thing! They still want to tear each other apart after this No DQ war between them! This is incredible! What a volatile situation!

Lexi: Is anything going to be able to settle this thing between them, because that sure as hell didn’t. 

Kyle pulled Stacey with him as they walked backwards up the ramp with Abi. Becka got to her feet, and wiped the blood from her head, never taking her eyes off the blonde as the show went to a commercial for Future Shock Global Wars.



Adam Stands Firm

As the match concluded, the show returns to the back and finds both Scarlett and Cody Kincaid standing outside the office of the Future Shock Director. Adam leans against the wall as he looks expectantly towards Cody.

Adam: Hello again. 

His expression was a little less hardened for Scarlett. 

Adam: Good to see you again, Scarlett. I’m pretty sure I know what this is about, and I want you to know none of this reflects on you. We’ve always gotten along, and I’m able to separate how I feel for one person from the other…even if they are married.

Scarlett gave her husband’s arm a squeeze as she gave a slight nod to Adam.

Scarlett: Hi Adam. Good to see you again. Future Shock’s been doing well lately, putting on some great matches. And yeah, you probably do know what it’s about and for what it’s worth…he does mean what he says.

Cody: Listen. I know I screwed up everything. And I meant what I said when I apologized to you. I’m sorry I didn’t tell you sooner, but I didn’t even think you’d listen to me.

Adam: I have both times you tried so far, right? 

Cody: Yeah. Yeah, you have. This isn’t because I want my job back with FFW. I should have done this three months ago. And I could kick myself for waiting this long, because I know how it looks. I’d want to make things right even if it didn’t depend on me getting back into FFW.

Adam didn’t respond at first. 

Adam: Here’s the problem I have, Cody. I don’t know entirely if I believe you, but I also have hired a lot of people in my job that I didn’t necessarily think were always being straight with me. But here’s the difference. If I hire someone who isn’t being straight with me, I can resolve that. If Samantha hires you back, it’s probably gonna be with me under your thumb. And I can’t resolve that. The only way that gets resolved is I guess I’d have to quit, because I can’t overrule her…and I wouldn’t be able to overrule you either, most likely. So if all of this is really  just a facade to get back in power, I’m gonna be screwed either way.

Scarlett nodded her head. 

Scarlett: I can understand that. And I don’t blame you for feeling like that…for not wanting to get screwed over or feel like you’ve got to quit your job. But you guys have always worked really, really, really well together before, haven’t you? I’m sure you could do it again. And I’m sure that you two working together would be one heck of a tandem - a powerhouse. 

There was a slight pause.

Scarlett: I’m sure there have been times too when you know you should’ve done something but didn’t because you were afraid…or ashamed that it took too long to do it…and time just kept on passing till well, you know…

Adam: Of course. I don’t know how he can change my mind.

He told her before looking back at Cody.

Adam: I have no idea what you can do to make me feel better about possibly being under your thumb again. But that’s not for me to figure out anyway. All I know is this apology doesn’t hold much water with me. Prove you mean it. Prove to me this isn’t just trying to get a job back, then I’ll consider it. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have things I need to do.

Adam walked off camera, leaving the pair to exchange glances. That was when the show returned to ringside.

Kat: The following match is scheduled for one fall to a finish and is for the Evolution Championship!!

Zack: I think we may see a title change right here, Lexi. I’ve seen Nevaeh overcome Casey before, and tonight she can take the Evolution Championship when she does it again.

Lexi: Nevaeh collects Championships like a Magpie collects shiny objects, it wouldn’t surprise me at all if we see a title change here. 

As “Just Like Fire” by P!nk begins to play we see Nevaeh Summers storms her way onto the stage , fired up, and motioning to the crowd. Nevaeh is looking out to them, from the front row, all the way to the upper deck, shouting for them to make noise. Nevaeh eventually makes her way between the stage and ramp area wearing yellow rimmed sunglasses as well as a white military jacket with yellow trim. As we keep looking at Nevaeh we see she is wearing yellow colored leather pants running down her leg. The side of each leg is laced up with white colored fabric, showing of her skin. On her feet we see black boots and white kickpads. On the front of each kickpad appears her logo as there is a circle with “NS” in the center of it in Yellow. While “The" scrolls on the top, “World’s” is straight in the middle, and “Finest” scrolls on the bottom, also in yellow.

Nevaeh looks around the building, nodding her head, as she starts feeling the crowd. “Feel that energy” is what can be heard coming from Nevaeh as she goes about heading down the ramp halfway and begins pointing her left hand out to the crowd and moves it around as if she was conducting them. The crowd moves from left to right, linking arms. Nevaeh then points to the opposite side of the crowd with her right hand, urging that side of the building on the same way, to which they do. Nevaeh lowers her head, her hands still swaying to the crowd till she raises her head up and snaps her arms out to the side.

As Nevaeh strikes her signature pose a row of pyro  and fire goes off next to her, starting far out and rushing close to her, before a big unified explosion happens behind her. Nevaeh now lowered her head back down and looked towards the ring and began walking down the ramp with a purpose.

Kat: Making her way to the ring at this time she resides in Las Vegas, Nevada. She weighs in tonight at 120 pounds. She is Nevaeh Summers!!!

Nevaeh reaches the bottom of the ramp and goes about slapping hands with the fans. Nevaeh now heads to the opposite side and slaps a few more hands before removing her sunglasses and just casually tosses them out towards the crowd. Nevaeh than quickly runs to the ring, sliding in under the bottom rope, and gets to a knee. Nevaeh just looks out for a moment before getting to her feet and shimmies out of her jacket.

Nevaeh then approaches the middle of the ropes facing the hard camera. Nevaeh climbs up them, hooking a leg over the top rope and straddling it. Nevaeh now sits there and looks out to the capacity crowd. The blonde began motioning them to get louder, which they do. She eventually lowers her head and starts motioning her arms as if she's conducting them again. This time we zoom out and capture the front row all around motioning along with her. After a moment Nevaeh snaps her head back and her arms out. Multiple spotlights soon shift down onto her, basking her in the light.

Nevaeh keeps striking the pose till she sees fit. Once she has she gets off the ropes and makes her way to the opposite side of the ring where she puts one foot on the bottom rope and the other on the middle. She bounces on them while looking out to the crowd and stretches her arms out yet again, encouraging them to get louder.

Nevaeh bounces off the ropes and lands on her feet. She starts psyching herself up as she paces back and forth along a corner.

Zack: Nevaeh looks as ready as I’ve ever seen her. She’s held this title before, and the woman she took it from then was the obnoxious Diamond we saw earlier in the show.

Lexi: It wasn’t long ago that Nevaeh lost the Phoenix Championship and I’m sure taking the Evolution Championship from Casey will go a long way towards making her feel better about that. They say the best way to get over one man is to get under another, I’m sure the same principle could apply to Championship belts too.

The arena is plunged into darkness, punctuated only by the soft, subtle, plucking of harp strings picking out the tune from the hymn “He’s Got The Whole World In His Hands” only just loud enough to be audible by the capacity crowd. As it plays the video wall starts to show a group of people formed up in ranks against a pure black background. The song got louder as the voices of the people on the video wall began to sing the hymn with great enthusiasm and verve, clapping their hands together as they did so. Then, suddenly it was cut off and became a fanfare of trumpets. A sudden blinding white light flooded the whole building before it narrowed down to a single point high above the stage where a single figure is slowly descending from the heavens. The woman almost seems to be glowing in her bright white robes with the Evolution title belt fastened securely around her waist. Her hair was almost a flame red crown around her head. The eyes of the choir on the video wall all turned towards her, singing out an awed ‘Aaaah aaaaah aaaah’ to accompany the angel’s descent only for her to become more and more recognisable as Casey Atherton the lower that she gets. The crowd dropping down to their knees on the wall and starting to bow towards the angelic figure. As Casey landed she shrugged herself out of her white robes with the aid of a stagehand, leaving herself in brilliant white ring tights and a white smock top and her championship belt still around her waist. Cradling her hands together, the red haired woman began to slowly walk down the entrance ramp; bathed in the same bright, pure white light. On the video wall, the Choir began to sing, slowly growing to a crescendo!

She's got the whole world in her hands
She's got the whole wide world in her hands
She's got the whole wide world in her hands
She's got the whole world in her hands


As she makes it to the ring, she climbed up the ring steps and onto the apron before slowly and as respectfully and reverentially as possible stepped through the ropes into the ring. Atherton flashed a bright smile to the crowd, then caught a boot to the side of the face as Summers sent her falling back against the ropes with a brogue kick. 

Zack: Whoo boy, Nevaeh’s not waiting to get started! Get out of there, Kat!

Lexi: Well, Nevaeh definitely isn’t getting paid by the hour tonight is she?!

Jennifer Stringer called for the bell as Nevaeh skipped forwards and left her feet to catch her foe with a high knee into the underside of her jaw. Casey staggered forwards a step and Summers quickly pulled her head down to bend her over before she grabbed hold of her smock top, pulling it up over her head and causing the Evolution Championship to fall to the mat as she started to pepper her heads with right hands like she was in a hockey fight. The official called for the break and started the count as Casey tried to pull away, but only succeeded in kicking the Evolution Championship out of the ring to the floor. The referee counted to four before the challenger slammed Atherton’s face into her knee with a single knee facebreaker, sending her staggering back half a step only for the World’s Finest to yank her into a short arm clothesline that sent her down to the mat. 

Zack: These two women have a whole lot of history between them, and virtually none of it is positive. 

Lexi: Does anyone have a positive history with Casey? Enquiring minds wanna know. 

The Evolution Champion quickly rolled and started to get back up to her feet only for Summers to set off for the ropes behind her, bouncing off them and caught the red head with a clothesline to the back of her head that sent her the Champion straight back down to the canvas. Moments later Casey was covering up as Nevaeh stomped away at her back and shoulder blades. The official told her to back up, starting the count which saw Summers back up as the count made four. Slowly Atherton began to push upwards and was only allowed to get as far as her hands and knees before Nevaeh wrapped her arms around her waist. The former FFW Champion let out a roar as she perked the prophet up and over, slamming her into the ring mat with a German suplex. 

Zack: Nevaeh is rocking and rolling, and I’ve got a feeling we’re gonna crown a new Evolution Champion!

Lexi: And in record time possibly with the way Nevaeh is letting loose on Casey. 

Again Casey rolled to her front as she landed and started to push upwards and this time Summers pulled her quickly to her feet and snapped her head back with a European uppercut. Atherton staggered backwards and caught a spinning backhand to the side of the face which saw her stumble. As she caught her balance, the FFW Hall of Famer grabbed hold of her by the wrist and irish whipped her across the ring, catching her on the return with a Thesz press. As the World’s Finest landed on top of her foe, she cradled the back of her head with her left hand and slammed rapid fire forearms into her jaw with the right; the official telling her to let Casey back to her feet and started the count. The challenger continued to fire off the forearms, only stopping a moment after the referee made it to four and came to her feet with her arms raised; Atherton took a second, holding her jaw before she rolled to the side and looked as though she was heading for the outside, only for Summers to stop her before she could get close to the ropes by grabbing hold of her ankle and jerking her back to the middle of the ring. Immediately Atherton started to roll in the opposite direction and was again stopped before she made it to the ropes and hauled back to the middle of the ring roughly by her ankle.

Zack: Casey can’t get away from Nevaeh if her life depended on it. But tonight, only her title does!

Lexi: Are you sure about that, Zack? It’s no secret that there’s no love lost between Nevaeh and Casey after all. 

Casey took maybe half a second after she landed before she started to crawl commando style, using her legs and elbows to slither forwards on her stomach. This time she made it to the ropes, albeit with Nevaeh walking alongside her and as soon as she made it, the World’s Finest grabbed hold of the top rope and began to viciously and repeatedly stomp down on her foe’s shoulders, causing her to cover up. Again the referee called for the break and started the count, watching Nevaeh back up on four once more, grabbing the red head by the ankle again and went to jerk her back towards the middle of the ring but this time the Evolution Champion had hold of the bottom rope. Summers again went to jerk her away but Casey’s grip was tight and saw Nevaeh kick her in the stomach instead. Atherton curled up and Nevaeh pulled her upwards with a handful of hair, hooking her head as she got her to her feet and used the ring ropes to spike the Evolution Champion onto her head with a Tornado DDT. As they landed Nevaeh made the cover, pressing her hands into Casey’s shoulders to hold her down.

Zack: Right to the dome, and the title may be heading to Atlanta!

One…

Two…

…TH-

Lexi: I actually thought for a second that was going to be it then, but Casey isn’t quite ready to relinquish the title yet. 

Casey rolled her shoulder to break up the pinfall and Summers nodded her agreement as Stringer showed her the two. Atherton sat up only to get a forearm to the side of her head, rocking her backwards. As she was about to fall backwards, Nevaeh grabbed hold of her hair; Stringer warning her about doing so but the referee was ignored as Summers pulled her foe upwards and went to quickly pull her into the Grand Finale. She quickly hooked one arm before Casey slipped out, falling onto her stomach and quickly slid backwards and out of the ring, to land on her feet, holding her jaw. Stringer told Nevaeh to back up before she stepped towards Casey, telling her to get back into the ring as she started the count. The official barely reached one, however, before Summers came off the set of ropes opposite Casey, launching herself across the ring and into a baseball slide that connected perfectly with the Evolution Champions chest, sending her back into the barricade. As Summers started to put the boot to Atherton’s midsection to loud cheers from the crowd, the official leaned through the ropes and demanded that the former FFW Champion bring the action back into the ring.

Zack: I don’t think Casey has gotten a damn shot off since the match started! It has been all Nevaeh from start to now!

Lexi: Nevaeh is definitely making a point at Casey’s expense here. Casey might be regretting kick out of that cover at this point. 

Nevaeh landed approximately twenty kicks to Casey’s stomach before she lifted her up off of her feet and dropped her with a modified Atomic drop so that she was straggling the barrier. As the self proclaimed prophet’s eyes went wide, Nevaeh climbed up onto the crowd barrier behind her, taking a moment to make sure she had her balance before she leapt up onto Casey’s shoulders and spiked her on the top of her head at ringside with a reverse rana. Once more Stringer ducked through the ropes and told the Hall of Famer to get it back in the ring. Summers asked for just one moment as she came back to her feet, pulling Casey up with her. As the World’s Finest made it back to a vertical base she hoisted Atherton up onto her shoulders for a fireman’s carry before she flipped the Evolution Champion upwards and slammed her face first into the ring apron. Casey held her face, writhing in pain as the former FFW Champion slid into the ring.

Zack: Nevaeh has been in full control for several minutes here. Casey has had zero offense, and I’m more convinced than ever we’re gonna crown a new Evolution Champion!

Lexi: Casey might as well just save herself the misery and lay down now, get it all over and done with. 

Inside the ring, Nevaeh reached through the ropes, pulling her foe upwards and feeding her over the middle rope and into a standing headscissors. Summers took a moment, encouraging the cheering crowd to get louder before she grabbed hold of the top rope and jumped a little way into the air as if about to deliver a heatseeker piledriver…but instead the blonde found herself lifted up and over the top rope with a back body drop from the Evolution Champion who dropped to a knee, holding the middle rope as she did so only to push up to her feet a couple of seconds later with a grin on her face as she stayed facing the ring, telling the crowd that it was God’s will…

Lexi: I’m not sure this is really the time for preaching, Casey. You might wanna pay attention to the…. nevermind.

…but what she didn’t notice was that Neveah had landed on her feet on the outside and had turned to face Casey. As soon as Atherton was through thanking the Lord, Summers jerked her ankles out from underneath her, causing her to crash jaw first into the ring apron as she fell to the floor, collapsing to her knees. Summers took a couple of steps backwards, measuring Atherton up and as the Evolution Champion pushed up to one knee, Nevaeh unloaded on her with a superkick to the side of her head. Casey stayed on one knee for a second or two before she slowly keeled over and fell to her side. Quickly the World’s Finest manhandled the red haired wrestler back up and rolled her underneath the bottom rope and into the ring, following in behind her and made the cover, hooking the leg as she did so.

Zack: That superkick could’ve been a knockout shot, and the Evolution title is in major jeopardy!

One…

Two…

…THRE–

Lexi: Not quite. How this match isn’t already over is anyone’s guess truthfully. 

Casey’s shoulder popped up a moment before the three count could be completed. Nevaeh stared at the referee for a moment as Stringer showed the two count, but showed no signs of being about to argue with her as she instead started to pull Atherton up to her feet. As soon as she had her upright, Summers ripped open the smock top to expose her opponent’s chest and then reached all the way down to her boots only to unload with a stinging knife edge chop across her chest. Atherton staggered, holding her chest only for Nevaeh to stop her, jerk her arm away from her chest and deliver another knife edge chop that was just as vicious as the last; a red welt could be seen forming at the site of impact as Casey staggered away once more. Again Nevaeh stopped her in her tracks and delivered another knife edge chop to the chest. This time Casey virtually fell backwards, catching herself in the corner as her chest turned blood red. The Hall of Famer held a finger up to her lips, the crowd's cheers falling quiet for a moment as the blonde stepped forward and delivered another loud chop to her opponent’s chest; the crowd exploded into cheers as a thin line of blood appeared across Casey’s chest. Three more chops followed in quick succession as Stringer told Nevaeh to let her out of the corner and the Hall of Famer obliged as she jerked the Evolution Champion into an Irish whip into the opposite corner.

Zack: I have never seen Nevaeh Summers this absolutely dominant in a match in her entire career! She’s pitching a shutout!

Lexi: I’m betting Casey’s wishing she’d just stayed home and mailed Nevaeh the title at this point. Imagine trailing all the way to Japan just to be used as a training dummy!

Casey hit the turnbuckle pads hard and leaned back against them as Summers measured her up and took off across the ring, launching herself into a handspring back elbow. The blonde though only hit the turnbuckle pads as Casey dropped to the mat at the very last moment and rolled out of the ring. Immediately the Evolution Champion staggered up the entrance ramp, not even looking back as she waved off the match with one hand and held her opposite hand to her chest. Summers took a moment before she stepped out of the corner and shook her head, stepping through the ropes and dropping to the floor where she took off after Casey, catching her with a high knee to her shoulder blades, dropping the red head to one knee. Quickly Nevaeh used a handful of hair to pull the Evolution Champion back to her feet and drove another pair of knife edge chops in her chest to send her reeling back towards the ring. As Casey got towards the bottom of the ramp, the former FFW Champion grabbed hold of the back of her head and built up speed to throw her underneath the ropes and into the ring. 

Zack: Casey might be thinking about taking a walk and getting out of here. This has not been her night in the slightest.

Lexi: Well she tried to take a walk at least, but Nevaeh isn’t letting her get out of it that easily!

Quickly Nevaeh followed after her, popping up to her feet and striding after her foe as Atherton sat up in the middle of the ring and immediately started scooting backwards, holding one hand against her chest and trying to ask Nevaeh for mercy as God would want her to show. Summers shook her head as she leaned forwards and slapped the taste out of the Evolution Champions mouth. The World’s Finest then went to pull her foe upwards but as she did, Casey surprised her by jerking the challenger down into a small package. Stringer slid into position to make the count and as she did, the self proclaimed prophet reached out and grabbed the middle rope with both hands.

Lexi: Where the hell did that come from?! Is Casey hoping that Nevaeh’s tired herself out by using her as a punch bag, because that’s the only way this is gonna work for her. 

One…

Tw—

Zack: Not nearly enough damage done to keep Nevaeh down….even with holding the rope.

Despite her grip on the ropes, Nevaeh kicked out, sending Casey falling forwards to land on her knees, still holding onto the ropes. Atherton used the ropes to pull herself upwards and immediately skipped towards Summers, catching her on the point of the jaw with a superkick. Nevaeh wobbled backwards a step and a half but stayed upright, shaking her head as she told Casey to do that once more. With a shrug of her shoulders the Evolution Champion skipped forwards again and fired off another superkick which saw Nevaeh catch her foot before it made contact. The prophet’s eyes went wide as she tried to hold up two hands placatingly, asking her if she really wanted to do this to her Saviour; to the woman who had helped her so much. That only seemed to enrage the World’s Finest further as she yanked her foe forwards and delivered a headbutt to the bridge of her nose. Casey staggered and turned away from Nevaeh, holding her nose as she did so. The Hall of Famer quickly went to lift Atherton up into a back suplex, but as she lifted her up, the Evolution Champion flipped backwards and landed on her feet. It took her a step to find her balance as the challenger turned towards her and then the red haired wrestler delivered a headbutt, followed by a kick right between her legs and then took her down with a codebreaker.

Zack: Casey with a strong offensive flurry right there, but that low blow….I think she wants to get disqualified. And given how this match has gone for the most part, that might be the smartest decision she makes.

Lexi: It looks like Casey’s finally remembered why she’s actually here. I was starting to think she’d forgotten, to be honest. 

The referee immediately began to reprimand Casey for the low blow, Atherton looking at her astonished and telling her that if it was low, then it was upon the direction of God and was blessed by him. Stringer warned her once more as Atherton was slowly getting to her feet…only to find Nevaeh was already back to her feet. The blonde darted forwards and rocked the Evolution Champion with a running forearm to her chest before grabbing hold of her wrist and sending her into the nearest set of ropes. Summers left her feet, looking for a dropkick but only got air as Casey managed to stop herself in her tracks by grabbing hold of the top ropes. The World’s Finest rolled up to one knee and as she did so, Casey once more skipped towards her and caught her with another superkick, following that up with a shining wizard to the side of the head. As the challenger fell to the canvas, Casey dove on top of her, hooking her leg for the cover.

Zack: What a shot to the skull! Is Nevaeh out cold? 

One…

Two–

Lexi: I’m gonna say no there, Zack. 

Summers kicked out as the two was coming down and Casey didn’t even bother to look at the referee as she wrapped her hands around the throat of the blonde. The official demanded the break and started the count, getting all the way to four. Stringer was about to count five but hesitated and instead grabbed hold of Atherton and pulled her away from the World’s Finest. Casey glared at her, asking her what she did that for and the official told her to listen to the count and break before five. The self proclaimed prophetess shrugged as she went straight back to the choke, telling the official it would be God’s plan if she was disqualified tonight. The official again demanded the break and started the count, once more pulling Casey off the World’s Finest instead of making it to five. The Evolution Champion told the official if she kept getting in the way of God’s plan, she’d find herself smote and sent to Hell…and immediately went back to choking out Nevaeh. This time though, the World’s Finest was ready for her, grabbing hold of Casey by the wrists as her hands started to close around her throat and sent her head over heels with a monkey flip the Evolution Champion landing near the corner.

Zack: That’s one hell of a counter to a blatant choke right there. 

Lexi: Casey looks like she’s doing everything she can to get disqualified, but Nevaeh isn’t going to let her out of it that easily. 

Casey took a moment to sit up and started to pull herself upwards with the ring ropes as Neveah rolled up to her feet, breathing deeply as she retreated to the opposite corner and started to paw at the canvas with her foot. The crowd cheered her loudly as the blonde was staring a hole through the self proclaimed prophetess. Atherton started to turn and immediately sidestepped to dodge a spear from the onrushing Summers who went straight through the turnbuckles and crashed shoulder first into the ring post. Slowly Nevaeh backed up out of the corner and as she did so, Atherton climbed up onto the middle rope and launched herself over her opponent into a sunset flip, holding her down for the pinfall.

Zack: The champion’s looking for a quick ending here!

One…

Two…

…T-

Lexi: Nevaeh is far too fired up to let the chance of being Evolution Champion slip away from her just yet. 

Nevaeh once more kicked out and Casey rolled to the side, forcing herself up to her feet and took off across the ring, hitting the ropes and coming back to crash a running knee lift into her foe’s jaw as Summers made it back to her knees. Summers sat back on her heels and again Atherton took off to the ropes again, this time coming back off them and launching herself into a busaiku knee strike to Nevaeh’s face. It sent Summers back to the canvas but a moment later and the former FFW Champion sat up with a look of thunder on her face. Casey shook her head and started to unload with a series of stiff kicks into the chest of the World’s Finest. They seemed to have no effect. The Atlanta born Hall of Famer pushed her way to her feet and took a final kick to the gut from Casey before she replied with a forearm to the jaw. Atherton stepped backwards half a step and as the challenger loaded up for another forearm, the Evolution Champion stopped her in her tracks with a poke to the eye. Once more Stringer told her off for the eye poke.

Zack: I doubt seriously that Casey cares at all about getting disqualified or even flirting with a DQ, Lexi. If there’s a God, he’s forsaken Casey tonight.

Lexi: You reap what you sow and with everything Casey’s got up to in the past, it looks like karma is catching up with her tonight. 

Casey dropped to her knees for a moment as if in prayer, which gave Nevaeh time to clear her vision and charge towards Atherton, only for the red head to surprise her suddenly, catching hold of her around the waist as she hoisted her upwards and dropped her throat first over the top rope. Summers landed on her feet and stumbled backwards, choking for breath and quickly the Evolution Champion rolled her up in an O’Connor roll, grabbing hold of a handful of tights as she stacked the challenger up and Stringer slid into position to make the count.

Lexi: Casey really isn’t afraid to use every dirty trick in the playbook is she?

One…

Two…

…TH–

Zack: All those tights in hand, Casey practically had Nevaeh mooning this crowd.

Neveah kicked out with authority, sending Casey falling into the ring ropes while she rolled backwards and came to her feet. Immediately she chargers towards Atherton who was holding herself up on the ropes and caught her with a face wash big boot. Casey leaned backwards, almost toppling over the top rope as she did so but managed to stay in the ring. The former FFW Champion pulled her foe forwards off the ropes and lifted her up into an inverted Atomic Drop. Casey’s eyes went wide as the move landed and the Hall of Famer darted towards the ropes, the Evolution Champion turning slowly and straight into a forearm smash that knocked her to the mat. Casey started to push upwards, making it to all fours and Nevaeh delivered a running punt kick to the red head’s rib cage. Summers pulled her opponent the rest of the way to her feet only to deliver a discus elbow strike to the side of her jaw. It spun the prophetess around as she dropped to one knee and the blonde spiked her face into the mat with a somersault cutter. As Atherton dropped backwards to the mat, Summers sat up on the canvas, trying to catch her breath.

Zack: Nevaeh needs to get it together and quickly. She dominated the majority of this match already, but Casey seems to have found her groove. 

Lexi: It doesn’t look like either of them have much left in them though, surely it can’t be much longer before one of them gets a lucky break and keeps the other down. 

Slowly Casey began to push upwards from the canvas, making it to all fours and then to her knees before Nevaeh laid back on the mat for a matter of milliseconds before she kipped up to her feet. As soon as she was vertical Summers took off towards the ropes, bouncing off them and left her feet as Atherton rose to her feet and the blonde used the Golden State Of Mind running leg drop bulldog to spike Casey down into the canvas face first. Quickly the World’s Finest rolled the Evolution Champion onto her back and made the cover, hooking the leg as she did so.

Zack: GOLDEN STATE OF MIND….and maybe a new champion too!

One…

Two…

…THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!NNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lexi: Damn, I really thought that was gonna be it then. 

At the very last possible moment, Casey’s shoulder popped up from the canvas and caused Stringer to show the two to all concerned. Nevaeh stared at the referee for a moment, the senior official advising the challenger that the shoulder came up in the nick of time. The World’s Finest nodded her head as she came back to her feet, waving her hands as though conducting an orchestra for a couple of moments before she waved the stirring Casey upwards. Slowly Atherton pushed upwards onto all fours and that was as far as she got before the former FFW Champion pulled her upwards and was about to go for the Grand Finale again only for Atherton to wrap her arms around the challenger and fall backwards, sending her into a clash of heads with Stringer as the official was walking around behind the Evolution Champion; the referee dropping to the mat, holding her head as she did so, while Nevaeh fell to her knees.

Zack: Uh oh, the referee cracked heads with Nevaeh, and this has catastrophe written all over it.

Lexi: What are the odds on that being exactly Casey’s plan? Or are we going with it being divine intervention from her higher power?

Quickly the Evolution Champion came to her feet and grabbed hold of Nevaeh’s head, pulling her upwards and into a spike DDT. Summers lay flat out on the mat next to the referee as Casey looked at the pair of them and gave a shake of her head before she rolled off to the side and out of the ring. Atherton staggered a little bit as she walked around the ring, finally bending down and picking up the Evolution Championship from where it had fallen at the start of the match. Casey rolled back into the ring and came back to her feet with the title belt in her grasp and found Nevaeh was pushing herself upwards. As the World’s Finest made it to her feet, Casey charged towards her, leaving her feet and crashing the title belt into the side of her head. Nevaeh collapsed to the mat and the prophetess tossed the title out of the ring, before she rolled the Hall of Famer onto her back, making the cover as Stringer started to stir. The official took a couple of moments before she looked up, saw the pin, pulled herself forwards a couple of inches and, in a still woozy state, started the count.

Lexi: After everything that’s happened, Casey’s going to steal it. I don’t believe it. 

… … One…

… … Two…

… … …THR–

Zack: Thank goodness for that! That was the longest three count Stringer’s ever had, but with good reason.

Nevaeh kicked out before the three could be made and Casey shook her head as Stringer had the presence of mind to roll to her back and hold up two fingers as high as possible. There was a look of disbelief on Casey’s face as she started to rise, pulling Nevaeh up with her. She hooked the World’s Finest around the head with one arm, made the sign of the cross with the other and then lifted her foe upwards, holding her upside for a couple of seconds before she finally slammed her down into the mat with The Passion falcon arrow. Again, Casey rolled her quickly to her back and made the cover, hooking the leg and this time Stringer was a little quicker to get into position to make the count - albeit still a little slower than normal.

Lexi: Nevaeh’s lucky that Stringer isn’t still all there at the moment, it might actually be keeping her in this match at this point. 

One…

Two…

…THRE–

Zack: Another near fall for the champion right there, but Nevaeh still has some gas left in her tank.

Nevaeh rolled the shoulder before the three could come down and again Stringer held up the two count for the officials to see. Again Casey shook her head as Stringer sat up holding her head with a look of pain still on her face. Atherton this time rolled up to her knees, clasped her hands together in prayer and looked up to the heavens, her lips moving as she muttered something inaudible over the booing of the crowd. When she was finished the Evolution Champion once more moved to pull Nevaeh upwards, once more hooking her head as she set her up for a second passion but as she lifted her into a vertical position, Summers came to life, twisting and shifting her body weight to slip from her gasp. It took the Hall of Famer a step to find her balance as she landed on her feet behind her foe and as Casey turned, Nevaeh quickly fired off a roundhouse kick aimed at her opponent’s temple. Atherton got her arms up in the nick of time but still stumbled thanks to the blow and the former FFW Champion looked to take full advantage, grabbing hold of Casey by the wrists and jerking her forwards as she ducked down to lift the Evolution Champion onto her shoulders.

Lexi: If that roundhouse had connected as intended I think that really would have been lights out for Casey there. 

Nevaeh went to adjust to get Casey into position for The Makeover and as she did so, Atherton began to drive a flurry of short, weak looking palm strikes into her foes rib cage with one hand, the other raking her eyes with her nails while she kicked her feet and desperately squirmed in her grip. It caused Summers to stagger, slightly off balance, the momentary delay and loss of grip was enough to allow the prophetess to hurl her weight backwards and counter the GTS into a crucifix driver, holding it for the pinfall as she did so. Stringer slid across the mat and into position to make the count.

Zack: Nevaeh lost her grip, and Casey….with a crucifix driver!

One…

Two…

…THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lexi: I’m… what… seriously. She actually did it. This is not how I expected this match to end up. 

She called for the bell as Nevaeh kicked out a second too late and as it sounded, Casey was already slithering out of the ring and to the floor. Quickly she scooped up the Evolution Championship and held it over her head with one hand, holding her chest with the other. Stringer sat up and pointed to her, while holding her head.

Kat: Here is your winner… AND STILL FFW EVOLUTION CHAMPION… “THE SAVIOUR” CASEY ATHERTON!!!!

Zack: Well damn it! Casey keeps the gold, but I think Nevaeh gave her the biggest challenge she’s had in quite some time! The champion should play the lottery after tonight!

Lexi: There were so many times I thought we were going to crown a new champion here tonight, but it looks like Casey really did have someone looking down on her tonight. 

Zack: A Hall of Fame effort from a woman who probably deserves her own wing! Thank you, Nevaeh! For everything.

Nevaeh sat up, still trying to clear her vision and asked the referee if was definitely a three count, the referee nodding her head, holding up the three. Summers shook her head as she sat on the mat, immediately raising a hand to hold her head as she looked angry and frustrated on the canvas while Casey was backing up the entrance ramp quickly, the crowd booing her as she clutched the title against her with one hand, her chest with the other as the show cuts to a video package for the main event.

Kat: The following contest is scheduled for one fall, and it is your main event for Relentless! It is for the FFW Championship!

Zack: Thank you for joining us tonight on FFW All Access, and our first Pay Per View main event for FFW in 2022 is about to be on deck. Lexi, how have you liked being in the booth for your first Pay Per View in FFW? 

Lexi: It’s definitely been an explosive night, and we’re about to see the cherry on the already icing topped cake!

There was silence; the lights began to fade away slowly. A soft instrumental echoes out across the audience. It starts slowly, a beautiful sound that contrasts the heaviness of the world. Like feathers, it glides among the waiting audience. The lighting fixtures produce a gentle spotlight upon the stage, offset by the occasional flash here and there. As 'Just Close Your Eyes' by Waterproof Blonde continues to play, a woman’s words begin to come through. Her voice is tender, not raising upon a whisper.

"Deceived by my eyes and all I was told I should see
Opinions not mine, the person they taught me to be
One night in the dark, a vision of someone I knew
And in the darkness I saw, a voice say, I'm you."


On the stage, a feminine figure appears. Her head lowered to everything. People cannot make out who it is. As she stands there, the flashes briefly illuminate her figure. It only gives small clues on who stands at the gate. She stands in the spotlight, her shadow cast large and proudly among the stage.

"Inside me a light was turned on…"

The instrumental picks up again. An electric guitar now joins the progressively exciting instrumentals of before. The singer’s voice suddenly intensifies.

"Then I was alive!"

In the light, it is revealed that it was Savannah Taylor. She stands at the gate, a robe of obsidian and ivory hues. The hood of it shadows her eyes, but the intensity of the final EXODUS World Champion remains clear as day. She starts off down the ramp, with a serious aura radiating from her body.

Kat: Ladies and gentlemen, making her way down to the ring....weighing in at one hundred twenty pounds.....from Las Vegas, Nevada.....Savannah Star !!!

"If you close your eyes your life,
A naked truth revealed
Dreams you never lived,
And scars never healed"


Savannah makes her way up the ring steps. She looks out towards the audience for a moment before entering the ring. From there, she heads for a turnbuckle. She stands there, taking in everything. She then lifts her up on top of it. She peers out in nothing, then takes off the hood with a flashy flourish. Her blonde locks fly up in the air. They descend, shaping her face as they famously do.

"In the darkness, light will take you to the other side
You'll find me waiting there you'll see, if you just close your eyes."


While she stands in her corner, she closes her eyes and takes a heavy breath. When her bright eyes open, Taylor is completely composed. There is nothing more than the heat of battle awaiting her. She takes off her robe, giving it to a stagehand. She stretches her wrists before devoting her mind to the war upon the horizon.

Zack: When Samantha gave Savannah the prize Emma had earned by defeating her in their rematch, I don’t think it surprised anyone that she wanted another go at the FFW Champion. She doesn’t care who has it, only that she wants it.

Lexi: She definitely has a laser focus when it comes to the FFW Championship, but you can’t blame her for that. I’m sure it’s the ultimate goal of every single woman on the FFW roster. 

The arena falls dark as the opening of “Blonde, Bad and Beautiful” by Airbourne plays, Kelly explodes upward out of the middle of the stage as though shot out of a cannon, landing a perfect front somersault in a shower of blue sparks. As she lands she holds her title belt high over her head. The girl is joined by Christian Kincaid on the stage. Turning to face her husband, she turns to face him, giving him a big hug as she plants a kiss to his lips. As the music starts to pick up pace once more she starts to run toward the ring, performing a quick cartwheel into a handspring before sliding into the ring underneath the bottom rope. Using the momentum to her advantage, the former acrobat forward rolls to her feet and leaps onto the middle rope. She springboards off the ropes into a backflip and heads towards the corner. The former acrobat runs straight up the pads. Stopping on the top turnbuckle she blows a kiss to the fans, holds her title belt high in the air and then corkscrew flips back to the mat, facing the middle of the ring as she lands. 

Kat: From Coney Island, Brooklyn, New York, 5’5” tall, weighs 120 lbs and is accompanied to the ring by Christian Kincaid. She is the reigning and defending FFW Champion...Please welcome...KELLY KINCAID!!!

Zack: Kelly Kincaid earned the rematch for the title when she defeated Savannah last September at Sin & Sacrifice. These two are not strangers to one another in the slightest. In this meeting though, Savannah is as close to the title as she’s ever been. I think that makes Kelly’s challenger even more ruthless. 

Lexi: But Kelly spent 10 years trying to get within reaching distance of the title, now that she has it in her grasp, I can’t imagine she’s going to let go of it easily. This is going to be one hell of a showdown. 

Kelly kissed her title before handing it over to senior referee Jennifer Stringer. The official showed it to Savannah, and then gave it to Kat as she left the ring. The bell sounded after that, and Savannah was already waiting in the center of the ring. Her eyes hadn’t left the title as Kat carried it back to the table, and Kelly joined her in the center after seeing what she was staring at. The champion informed her she wasn’t leaving with it tonight. Savannah still kept her eyes on the title, and surprised the champion with a headbutt to her face. That jarred Kelly as she clutched her nose, and Savannah took over from there with straight right hands to her face. Several landed in a row before she pulled Kelly’s head down for a kneelift into her face followed by an European uppercut that sent her backwards a couple steps. A spinning roundhouse kick sent her into the ropes, and Star used a one-handed bulldog to send her face down into the mat before making the cover. 

Zack: Savannah wants this to be the fast FFW Championship match in history!

ONE!

Kelly shoved her off the cover as soon as the one hit the mat, and Savannah started grinding her forearm against Kelly’s face. She rolled her onto her stomach, and mounted her back to pull her head up so she could fire forearms around her head.

Lexi: Savannah was extremely ambitious to think that she was going to win the FFW Championship that easily. I’d say Kelly is probably feeling almost insulted by that attempt. 

She finally spiked her face down on the mat, and got back to her feet. Savannah stomped the back of her head to further the damage when Kelly tried to get up. Star pulled her into position for what looked to be a suplex until Kelly ran her backwards into the nearest corner. It knocked the wind out of her for a half second before the champion started unloading with furious right hands to the side of her head. Shot after shot landed at a fast clip before the champion drove a back elbow into the side of her head. The offense stunned the challenger before Kelly whipped her into the far corner. Savannah landed chest first against it, and Kelly followed up with a full nelson suplex into a bridge.

Zack: Kelly got her offense going now, and look at that bridge! 

ONE!!

Savannah kicked out, and rolled away. But the challenger didn’t get back to her feet first. The champion did, and charged her with a running kneelift to the body. It nearly knocked Star to a knee before Kelly grabbed her head for a facebuster on the mat. 

Lexi: Kelly didn’t become FFW Champion by being a slouch in the ring, and she’s showing off some of her speed right here. 

Kincaid got back up quickly, and took off towards the ropes to use them for a springboard moonsault that landed across Star’s body. Her fire had gotten the crowd behind her as she dragged Savannah to her feet. A few quick forearms landed on the side of her head before she sent her across for the ride. When Star rebounded, Kelly ran towards her with a double chop across her chest that doubled her over to absorb a guillotine leg drop across the back of her head for another cover.

Zack: Kelly’s striking like lightning tonight, and ready to put the #1 contender at the back of the line!

ONE!!

T-NO!

Star kicked out as soon as the one hit the mat, and Kelly was back to her feet again. Savannah tried to get to the ropes, but didn’t make enough progress before a double stomp to her lower back stopped her. 

Lexi: Savannah isn’t going to let this opportunity slip through her fingers that easily. There’s a reason that she’s in the main event of the first FFW PPV of 2022. 

She grabbed Star’s feet to pull her to the center of the ring. But when she leaned down to pull her up, Savannah grabbed a handful of her hair and blasted away with straight right hands to her jaw. It rocked Kelly, and allowed Savannah to pull her into a guillotine choke under one arm with her legs wrapped around her in a body scissors.

Zack: Back and forth like a pendulum has been this match’s momentum. Kelly could be choked out in a matter of seconds with this hold. 

Lexi: I think Kelly being unconscious is possibly the only way Savannah’s going to be able to take the title from her vice like grip you know. 

Kelly fought it though, and began wildly moving her limbs and dragging Savannah with her until she got within reach of the ropes. The referee had to get to a four count to get a break, and Kelly rolled out to ringside to get herself together. Savannah sat up, collecting herself as well and decided to go get the champion by rolling out after her. She went to grab the champion, but Kelly spotted her coming and caught her with a sidekick to the stomach. That only stunned Savannah for a half second before Kelly bounced her face off the apron. Kelly rolled her back into the ring, and hopped up onto the apron next. When Savannah got back to her feet, Kelly used the top rope for a springboard clothesline that dropped her before she went for another cover.

Zack: Kelly’s trying to keep the match in the ring, and there’s a quick cover!

ONE!!

T-NOO!!

Savannah kicked out, and pushed Kelly away from her so she could get up. Star made it back to her feet as Kelly came in from behind, only to catch a mule kick from the #1 contender. That stopped Kincaid in her tracks before Savannah connected with a Pele kick that dropped her where she stood.

Lexi: This really could be anyone’s match. Neither one is giving an inch, and they’re both showing just how much they want it. 

With Kincaid doubled over, Savannah grabbed her head for a corner bulldog that dropped Kelly to her knees. Star hammered shots across her back. The referee demanded she let Kelly out of the corner, and that’s what she did. When the champion was back to her feet, Savannah charged her with a rolling elbow to the mouth before yanking her out of the corner into her corkscrew neckbreaker. 

Zack: Star’s back in control again, and there’s one of her favorite moves: the EMERALD WEAPON!

Lexi: She’s not going straight for a cover this time though, and that could be a smart move on her part. 

Looking more confident now, Savannah whipped the champion into the corner and followed after her with a handspring back elbow to the jaw. A flurry of shots landed after that before Star moved back a couple steps, and used the ropes for a step-up enzuigiri to the back of Kelly’s head. The FFW Champion collapsed to the mat on impact just before the challenger rolled her away from the ropes, and went for the cover.

Zack: That may have been a knockout shot! And if it was, a new FFW Champion in three!

ONE!!

TWOOOOOOOO!!!

T-NO!

Kelly got her shoulder up in time, and Savannah followed up with rapid elbow strikes to the side of her head before getting back to her feet. The Saitama crowd didn’t like Savannah in the slightest as she pulled Kelly up and positioned her in the corner in a tree of woe. 

Lexi: Kelly’s still in this, but for how much longer is anyone’s guess… she’s not in a great position right now. 

The Las Vegas Siren began stomping away at Kelly’s body furiously before taking off for the far side. She rebounded quickly for a running knee into Kincaid’s abdomen. Another rebound off the ropes saw her return with a jumping meteora into her chest as she hung upside down. Smiling wider now, she hit the ropes once again. This time, she was looking for a baseball slide into Kelly’s face….but the champion sat up on the corner and Savannah ended up sliding into the ring post with both  legs around it. Her entire body froze in pain as Kelly slowly tried to unwrap herself from the top rope.

Zack: That…..that made me hurt to watch! Savannah aimed for her head with that baseball slide, but ended up taking that ringpost in a very delicate area.

Lexi: That’s one the dangers of going for a baseball slide I guess, but I’m sure Kelly isn’t too disappointed by how it ended up for Savannah. 

The champion finally got herself back on her feet as Savannah was still recovering from her impact. Kelly started stomping her body quickly, and dragged her out of the corner to the center of the ring. The FFW Champion headed to the top rope, and launched herself into a shooting star press that landed perfectly before she hooked the outside leg for the cover!

Zack: One of her husband’s favorite moves and Savannah could still be in shock! Kincaid hit the FLIGHT PATH!

ONE!!!!

TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

THRE-NO!!

Star got her arm off the canvas to stop the count, and Kelly sat up on her knees. She was still hurting from what the challenger had already done to her. She pulled Savannah to her feet, and whipped her across to the far side to mow her down with a leg lariat on the rebound.

Lexi: Kelly didn’t skip a beat there, she’s not getting paid by the hour and she’s showing exactly why she’s the FFW Champion. 

Savannah started to get up again before Kelly took off for the ropes. She came back with more speed, connecting with a tilt-a-whirl DDT that stood Star on her head for a split second. The champion got back to her feet, and headed back to the corner once again. She waved for Savannah to get up, which was slow going as the challenger was taking her time with that. When she finally was vertical, Savannah ducked a running bicycle kick. And before Kelly could turn back around after regaining her balance, Savannah quickly applied her Kirifuda clutch and dropped down to the canvas. 

Zack: Kelly was gonna take her head off, but Savannah was wise to that! There’s the HEARTLESS ANGEL, and Kelly has a short window to find a way out of this!

Lexi: I don’t think I’ve ever seen Kelly quit, and I’m betting she’s not going to with the FFW Championship on the line tonight!

Savannah had the hold tightly applied, and wrapped her legs around Kelly’s body to add to the pressure. Kelly’s hands immediately tried to pull Savannah’s arm from under her chin, but wasn’t having a lot of success. Stringer asked her if she wanted to stop the match, but the champion gave no such sign. Savannah told her to quit repeatedly, but still couldn’t get a submission from Kelly. The champion used her feet, and began trying to maneuver her positioning in the ring till she was able to get her foot hooked over the bottom rope to call for the break. But Star didn’t let go until the referee got to a four count.

Zack: That was some outstanding positioning for Kelly to get the rope break. The problem is the effects of the hold don't disappear immediately just because Savannah let go.

Lexi: Kelly will definitely be feeling the effects of that hold, and Savannah could capitalize here and make all her dreams come true. 

Savannah got back to her feet, and went to get Kelly. But this time, it was the champion who rolled out of the ring to the floor. The challenger followed after her to the outside, and  grabbed her feet under both arms for a giant swing into the barricade. Kelly’s head and body hit the retaining wall  before Savannah stepped on her throat to choke her for a few seconds. The champion looked to be in even more trouble as Savannah scooped her over one shoulder, and dropped her face first across the top of the barricade with a snake eyes.

Zack: I know Kelly rolled out to stop Savannah from trying to apply that hold again, but she may have managed to make things worse, Lexi. Savannah is just as ruthless out here.

Lexi: That is definitely not something Kelly would have wanted to happen right there, she might have just sealed her own fate. Savannah is a woman on a mission. 

The referee was up to seven at this point, and Savannah rolled in and back out to the floor to cause her to restart her count. Kelly was trying to get to her feet, and Savannah hooked her head. It looked like she was going for a bulldog into the steel steps, but Kelly shoved her off. Star stopped herself before she hit the steps, only to turn back around and catch the running bicycle kick she had avoided earlier in the match. Savannah toppled over onto the steps to the other side as Kelly leaned against the apron, trying to pull herself together.

Zack: If the first one doesn’t get you, the second one will! Kelly has to get herself together quickly here. 

Lexi: We could be looking at a new Champion in the very near future, Zack if she doesn’t. 

Kincaid hopped up onto the apron, and took off down it as Savannah was getting up. She put her back down with a Fosbury flop, splashing Star onto the floor again. Kelly shoved her back into the ring, and headed up to the top rope from the outside. The fans rose to their feet as Kelly perched herself, and landed a corkscrew splash into a cover!

Lexi: Kelly went high and landed perfectly, this could be it!

ONE!!!

TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

THREEEEEEE-NOPE.

Savannah got her shoulder up once more, just stopping the referee’s hand as it was about to land for the third time. Kelly looked to Stringer to make sure, and saw only two fingers being held up as a result. She struggled to get back to her feet, and headed for the corner one more time.

Zack: I think Kelly senses Savannah’s not far from being done, and here she goes back into the high rent district one more time!

She didn’t move up the corner very quickly though, and ended up with Savannah’s head between her legs. Kincaid tried to free herself before Savannah grabbed her hand, and connected with her electric chair driver! Both women landed hard flat on the mat, but Savannah didn’t make the cover, instead trying to get herself together.

Zack: CRUEL ANGEL’S THESIS…but Savannah’s had as much taken out of her as Kelly has at this point. Otherwise, she’d have made the cover and we’d have a new FFW Champion!

Lexi: Somebody needs to make a move and quickly. Nobody wants this match to end on a count out!

The referee began a ten count on both women, and it was Savannah who began to move first. At the count of six, she rolled herself over and threw an arm across Kelly’s body for the cover. Stringer dropped immediately to count.

Lexi: Savannah’s made the move, new champion in three!

ONE!!!

TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-NO.

Kelly got her shoulder up before the three came down, and Savannah’s teeth gritted in anger as she lifted her head to look at the referee. Stringer told her it was just a two, which didn’t make her any happier.

Zack: There was too much time between hitting the driver and Savannah getting the cover. These two women have absolutely taken the measure of each other with the richest prize in women’s wrestling on the line!

Savannah got to her feet, muttering angrily to herself before she headed to the same corner Kelly had just used. She headed up to the ropes slowly, and launched herself into her springboard 450 splash!

Zack: DANCING MAD!! 

But Kelly rolled out of the way, letting Savannah crash land into the mat. The challenger struggled to get back to her feet, only for Kelly to get there first and grab her head into her headlock driver! She dropped on top of her for the cover as the referee lunged into position.

Zack: She moved….CLIPPED WINGS!!

ONE!!!!

TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

The referee called for the bell as Kelly rolled off the cover. The Saitama crowd showed their appreciation as they came out of their seats in approval. When she sat up on her knees, the referee raised her hand.

Lexi: Kelly did it! Her first defense on the first FFW PPV of 2022 and she’s done it! You just know that is gonna feel damn good for her. 

Kat: Your winner by pinfalL AND STIIIIIIIIIIIIIILL FFW Champion………..KELLY KINCAID!!!

Christian headed into the ring with the title, and helped his wife to her feet. He returned it to her, and gave her a hug before she raised it over her head in victory.

Zack: Congratulations to Kelly! Her first defense was far from an easy night at the office! Savannah ran her close from the bell, but Kelly’s returning to the States with her FFW Championship intact.

Lexi: Savannah came close, but Kelly’s keeping her ironclad grip on the FFW Championship!  Congratulations to her. 

Zack: Thank you for joining us here for Relentless! And we’ll see you Tuesday night for Future Shock! Good night from Saitama, Japan!

Kelly kissed her title again, just as she had at the start, as the 10th annual Relentless faded off the air on FFW All Access.
