[Admin]

Live from the sold-out Royal Farms Arena in Baltimore, Maryland
Monday Night August 9th, 2021
8:00pm EST

[ The shows opens with the Titantron showing the Empires new promo video package with all the new stars of the Empire like Alexander Stone, the Lynch Mob, the Zombie Bride Su Yim and many, many more with their high risk, high impact moves to the music of "Warriors" by Imagine Dragons blasting across the arena in unison with the pyrotechnics lighting the place up. The entire arena erupts in a chorus of cheers as the show comes on air. The music and pyro's stop as the cameras fade down to our broadcast table as “The Mexican Sensation” Caristico and “British Royalty” Phillip Greenway are standing by. ]

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway - Good evening folks and welcome to another amazing night of action right here in the World Wrestling Empire!! I am Phillip Greenway and I am joined by my broadcast colleague, and Mexican Sensation… Caristico!!!

“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Evening everyone and welcome to the flagship show here in the Empire.

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Caristico, what a show we have in store for tonight and it all builds to the main event where the women take center stage as Solo Darling puts her Women’s National title on the line in a rematch against former Women’s National champion Maria Manic. It was just last Sunday night at Summer Stampede that Solo pulled off maybe the biggest upset of the night when she beat Maria for her championship.

“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – What a match we all witnessed, but tonight doesn’t get any easier for her as it seems Maria is hell bent on getting her title back.

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – We will also see the Cartel take on the Devils Rejects in six-man tag team action. This match was made last week when Tito said that the Cartel was the best stable in the Empire and Raven Horse took offense to that and challenged the Cartel to this match.

“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – At one time I would have agreed. But with teams like the Bullet Club, Sensha-gun and the Prophecy making big waves in the Empire I really don’t think there’s a clear-cut dominant team. They are all dangerous.

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – We will also see, from the women’s division; Thunder Rosa taking on Malia Hosaka. Both women coming off of tough losses at Summer Stampede, looking to rebound tonight and get back on track.

“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Both Thunder Rosa and Malia Hosaka each fell out of the World title rankings with Rosa at five and Malia at three in the Women’s National title hunt. With a loss, each woman will inch closer to that dreaded cut line that swallowed up Amber O’Neal this past week.

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – We all wish Amber the very best as she moves on from the Empire. Speaking of the cut line, Funny Bones is in danger of being cut unless he can find a way to win just one of his next two matches, but tonight won’t be easy as he goes one on one against the World Champion Prophet.

“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – This might be the toughest match of Funny Bones’ career tonight as he has to face the World Champion. No pressure, right?

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – The Heartbreakers will be back in action tonight as they take on the former two-time Women’s World Tag Team Champions Caged Heat.

“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – With their loss at Summer Stampede, Caged Heat tumbled in the rankings all the way down to number three looking up at teams like the Heartbreakers and Bloody Mary and Havok blocking their path back into title contention.

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Finally, we kick things off with another match that has huge implications on the roster as Joey Ryan takes on the United States Heavyweight Champion Tank Edge. If Joey loses tonight, he will be cut from the roster because there’s no way he could ever get back over the cut line by Lethal Lottery. Folks, it’s time to kick this show off. Let’s go to the ring and join my buddy Harvey Weinstein ready to call the match.

Joey Ryan vs Tank ©

“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The following match is set for one fall with a twenty-minute time limit!!! Making his way to the ring first, weighing in at 252 lbs., he is a twenty-six-time Champion and a World Wrestling Empire Hall of Famer and arguably the Greatest of All Time… he is the reigning United States Heavyweight Champion... he is... “The Monster” Tank Edge!!!

[ The crowd goes crazy as “Tubular Bells” by Mike Oldfield rocks the arena as Shinigami Shogun and Rasputin Ito make their way down to the ring followed by the legendary Tank Edge who has his new United States Heavyweight title around his waist and his Gauntlet of the Gods on his right hand. Tank climbs into the ring as the crowd gives the Hall of Famer a standing ovation. ]

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Tank looks to be in great shape coming off that tough six-man tag team match where not only the Gauntlet of the Gods was on the line, but his United States Heavyweight title also.

“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Let’s not forget about his tag team partners Shinigami Shogun and Rasputin Ito. These two Japanese superstars have made an immediate impact here in the Empire as they continue to climb in the tag team ranks and now sit in the number six spot with some pretty tough competition ahead of them.

“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – And his opponent!!! Making his way to the ring weighing in at 210 lbs., he is… “The Don” Joey Ryan!!!

[ The crowd erupts in a mixture of laughter and cheers as the part time porn star Joey Ryan struts out on stage to the “The Stroke” by Billy Squire!! Joey dances down the ramp thrusting his penis at young women before climbing into the ring and posing on the ropes. ]

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Joey Ryan is in a tough spot tonight as he must win this match to stay anywhere near the cut line, but he’s got a monster standing in his way as you know Tank isn’t going to take him lightly just because of his win-loss record.

“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – These three men that make up Sensha-gun are an amazing trio and I can’t wait to see the three of them make a run at the stables six-man titles when the company makes it official.

[ The bell rings and Tank explodes at Joey Ryan nailing him with a football tackle. Tank drives a running knee strike into Ryan. Tank drives a European uppercut into Ryan. Tank nails a second rope diving elbowsmash onto Ryan. Tank drills a headsmash into the turnbuckle on Ryan. Tank attempts a back elbow, but Ryan ducks out of the way. Ryan drives a fist into the midsection on Tank. Ryan goes for a clothesline, but Tank attempts a go-behind, but Ryan counters it with a mule kick right into Tanks balls!!! ]

[ Tank drops to his knees holding his busted nuts as Ryan bounces off the ropes and hits Tank with a basement clothesline!!! Ryan whips Tank into the ropes and misses with a clothesline, but Tank comes off the back ropes and hits a dropkick to the knee of Ryan.

“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Let me get this right. This part time porn star just nut shotted Tank and now he’s begging Tank not to hurt him. What a pussy.

[ Tank drags Ryan to his feet and launches him into the turnbuckle. Tank mounts the turnbuckle and punches Ryan. Ryan tries for an eye gouge, but Tank blocks it and hits a Cradle DDT off the second rope on Ryan. Tank covers Ryan as Todd Sinclair counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Ryan somehow kicks out!!! ]

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – That cradle DDT off the second rope folded Joey Ryan up like an accordion!!! I could have sworn I saw Joey’s head touch his ass!!!

[ Tank stomps away on Ryan. Tank mounts Ryan and pounds away with vicious lefts and rights. Tank locks in a sleeperhold on Ryan. Ryan is valiantly trying to break the hold as he struggles to reach the ropes. Ryan manages to get his foot on the ropes forcing a break. Tank lifts Ryan’s limp body and hits a release cradle suplex on Ryan. Tank attempts a Death Valley Driver, but Ryan slides down his back and goes for a lariat, but Tank ducks out of the way and drives Joey Ryan’s head into the turnbuckle over and over and over again. ]

“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Joey Ryan has no clue where he is right now as he’s seeing nothing but stars!!! I’m not sure how this kid is even standing right now.

[ Joey Ryan screams for his life as Tank nails a release German suplex on him. Joey Ryan staggers to his feet and Tank hits a standing dropkick on him. Tank measures Joey up and drives a Shining Wizard into the back of Joey Ryan’s head. Joey Ryan tries to get away from Tank, but he puts Ryan in a boot choke in the corner as Todd Sinclair warns Tank to let go. Todd Sinclair counts ...1 ...2 ...3 ...4 ...and Tank lets go before he’s disqualified. ]

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway - This is like a cat playing with a mouse before he devours it!!! Some may call it cruel and unusual punishment, but I call it payback on Joey Ryan for wasting everyone’s time pretending to be a wrestler.

[ Joey Ryan coughs and wheezes as he stagers to his feet trying to get air back in his lungs. Tank grabs Ryan and nails him with a Samoan Drop!!! Joey Ryan holds the back of his head as Tank rolls him up and Todd Sinclair counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Ryan somehow kicks out!!! ]

[ Tank gives the sign for the Tankbuster as he sets up Joey Ryan and hits the Tankensteiner (the One-Winged Angel) on him. Tank rolls the motionless Joey Ryan up as Todd Sinclair counts ...1 ...2 ...3!!! ]

Time of match: 0:05:03

The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The winner of this match, Tank Edge!!!

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – It wasn’t much of a match as Tank overwhelmed Joey Ryan right from the start.

“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Unfortunately with this loss, Joey Ryan has no chance of getting over the cut line by Lethal Lottery as he falls to three and twelve and... what the hell!!!

[ Suddenly, the lights in the arena go dark and suddenly the Undertaker walks out on stage to the roar of the crowd. ]

[ Tank, Shinigami Shogun and Rasputin Ito stand there in awe as the Undertaker walks past them. ]

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – My God, we haven’t seen the Undertaker in the Empire since he won the World title back in 2004!!!

“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Doesn’t he seems a little small to you?

[ The Undertaker stands over Joey Ryan, raises his arms in the air and says... ]

The Undertaker – Rest in peace!!!

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Now I’ve heard the Undertaker in other federations, and that sounded nothing like him!!!

[ Tank climbs into the ring and rips the hood off of the Undertaker to reveal that it’s really Godzilla Sanchez pretending to be the Undertaker!!! ]

“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Are you kidding me? Godzilla Sanchez was pretending to be the Undertaker? What the hell!!!

The United States Champion “The Monster” Tank Edge – What the hell are you doing?

Godzilla Sanchez – What? I was just trying to give the little guy the proper send-off!!! It’s so cool when the Undertaker does it. Rest in pea...

[ Tank slaps Godzilla on the back. ]

The United States Champion “The Monster” Tank Edge – Let’s go!!!

[ Tank starts to walk away as Godzilla looks down at Joey Ryan. ]

Godzilla Sanchez – I’m sorry, I’ve gotta go now. I watched you in “Revenge of the Don” and I have to tell you...

The United States Champion “The Monster” Tank Edge – I said let’s go!!!

[ Tank storms off followed by Shinigami Shogun and Rasputin Ito. Godzilla waves to the fans as he tries to keep up with his mentor as they walk to the back. ]

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – We saw Godzilla Sanchez show up at Summer Stampede, but I thought like many of you did that it what’s called a one off. We had no idea he was going to show up tonight.

“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Godzilla Sanchez is a superstar in Mexico winning numerous title belts. The problem with him is, he’s not all there and can be... well he can be a little out there if you know what I mean?

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – We will have to wait and see what the future holds for this former superstar, but right now we are heading to the back as our new broadcast partner Maxwell Shaw is standing by with Shane McMahon who is about to give us a medical update on Portia Perez of the Canadian Ninjas.

[ The videotron comes on as it shows the CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon standing next to the newest backstage interviewer Maxwell Shaw!!! ]

Maxwell Shaw – Shane, you’ve asked for this time to update us on the medical condition of Portia Perez.

The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – Thank you Maxwell, and welcome to the Empire. As many of you know, Portia Perez was attacked by Gabby Jettson a few weeks ago. Her subsequent injuries to her neck were so severe that she needed to be evaluated by a spinal surgeon at the Mayo Clinic. That evaluation... well that evaluation didn’t go well for Portia. Her neck injury is so severe that she will require spinal surgery and she will never wrestle again.

Maxwell Shaw – Wait... what about Nicole Matthews?

The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – We have spoken to Nicole and she has been offered a spot on the Women’s roster in the singles division for now.

Maxwell Shaw – For now? So that roster spot that you offered isn’t a permanent spot then?

The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – That’s correct. She has also been told that she will need to win her final match this month or she won’t make the cut list.

Maxwell Shaw –With the loss of both the Woke Queens and the Canadian Ninjas in the same week, it seems the Women’s Tag Team division has again taken a severe blow. Are there any plans on bolstering the tag team division?

The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – The staff and I are always on the look-out for upcoming tag teams. We promise you that we are working tirelessly to bring the very best talent money can buy into the Empire. We ask that all the fans of the Empire remain patient as we move through this tough time.

Maxwell Shaw – Thank you Shane. Guys, back to you.

[ The show swings back to Caristico and Phillip at the announcer’s table. ]

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What terrible news for Portia Perez and especially Nicole Matthews as she now has to go it alone in the singles division, but just like everyone else; she has to worry about that dreaded cut line.

“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – This is also a huge hit to the Women’s Tag Team division as last week they lost the Woke Queens and now this week we learn that the Canadian Ninjas have disbanded. That leaves five teams battling it out for the Women’s World Tag Team titles and we are about to see two of them next!!!

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – That’s right my friend. Our next match features the Heartbreakers versus Caged Heat. The third and fourth ranked teams in that order. This should be an amazing match. Let’s go back to the ring for the introductions!!!

Time of match: 0:10:26

The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The winner of this match, Prophet!!!

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Prophet pulled off the win, but I have to tell you Funny Bones wrestled a great match and if a few things went a little different for him he could have won the match!!!

“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Unfortunately, Funny Bones is now forced to win his last match or he’s going to be under the cut line and be forced to leave the Empire. A time limit draw does the young man no good at this point. It’s win or go home!!!

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, on Afterburn we all watched as Arik Cannon came out to the ring and attacked Steve Scott with not one, but two Curb Stomps. Maxwell Shaw is standing by with Arik Cannon to find out exactly why he did that.

[ The videotron comes on as it shows Maxwell Shaw standing next to a pissed off Arik Cannon. ]

Maxwell Shaw – Arik, last week on Afterburn you attacked Steve Scott and drove his head into the mat with the Curb Stomp not once but twice. What was the motivating factors that led to your actions?

“The Irish Ass-kicker” Arik Cannon – My motivating factors? Are you kidding me? I have been on this roster since day one!!! I have main evented pap per views!!! I have taken on the toughest sons of bitches this roster has to offer and because my win loss record isn’t as good as some peoples, the staff is just going to jettison my ass back to the independent scene?

Maxwell Shaw – According to my calculations, you will need to win both of your remaining matches to stay above the cut line.

“The Irish Ass-kicker” Arik Cannon – Oh I will win both of my matches, and in doing so I’m going to crush whoever...

[ Suddenly, Steve Scott explodes onto the set and hits Cannon with a steel chair that levels him. ]

“Bloodlust” Steve Scott – How’s that feel mother fucker? I’ll see your ass on Afterburn!!!

[ Steve Scott storms off as Cannon tries to get back to his feet, holding the back of his head in pain. The show cuts back to Caristico and Phillip at the announcers table. ]

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Payback is a bitch and tonight his name is Steve Scott.

“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Arik Cannon is out to make a statement that he belongs here in the Empire, but maybe he targeted the wrong guy?

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – They don’t call him “Bloodlust” for nothing. This match is going to be brutal. Folks, it’s time for our next match of the night and the ladies take center stage as Thunder Rosa takes on Malia Hosaka!!! Let’s go back to the ring for our next match!!!

“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – If you ask me, Malia never needed Team Exile. She’s a tough veteran that’s held numerous titles around the world. No matter how her next two matches play out for her, she’s locked down a roster spot until the end of the year.

The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – And her opponent. Making her way to the ring weighing in at 119 lbs, this is… Thunder Rosa!!!

Time of match: 0:12:08

The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The winner of this match, Malia Hosaka!!!

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What a come back match for Malia after losing her pay per view match to her protégé Kiera Hogan.

“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Good match for Malia, but another tough loss for Thunder Rosa as she is now forced to win her next match or be cut from the roster.

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – That’s a fate a number of our stars are facing right now as the staff of the Empire are pushing their wrestlers harder and harder to be better than ever.

[ The videotron comes on as it shows Maxwell Shaw standing next to Millie McKenzie. ]

Maxwell Shaw – Millie, thank you for taking the time to join me tonight. In just a few short weeks, you will walk into Diamonds are Forever and not only will you have to defend your Women’s World Tag Team titles with your partner Charlie Evans, but you will have to also take on the reigning Women’s World Champion Amber Nova and do something only two other women on the roster has been able to do and that’s defeat her.

“The Queen of the Ring” Millie McKenzie – That’s right Max, what two other women already did. That goes to show you that she’s not some wrestling god. Some unbeatable force like she likes to think of herself as. Bloody Mary was the first to do it. Su Yim was the second. And at Diamonds are Forever, I will take from her what she holds most dear and that’s the Women’s World Title.

Maxwell Shaw – It won’t be an easy task because like I said, before you face her you and Charli Evans will have to defend your World Tag Team titles against an unknown opponent.

“The Queen of the Ring” Millie McKenzie – Unknown opponent? You make it seem like all these teams on the roster are a mystery to us. Like we don’t watch tape and study each and every one of them night after night. Hell, we just watched two of the best teams in the tag team division go at it and we hope that it’s one of them so that...

[ Just then, Spice and Katie Forbes walks onto the set. ]

“Cotton Candy” Katie Forbes – Wait, hold on... two of the best in the tag team division? Are you serious?

“A Slice of” Spice – Look at her!!! Of course, she’s serious.

“The Queen of the Ring” Millie McKenzie – Listen, no offense; but nobody thought the two of you would ever amount to anything let alone be a serious threat in our division.

“Cotton Candy” Katie Forbes – Our division? This bitch has to be bat shit crazy.

“A Slice of” Spice – What? Just because you have that title makes you think like you own the place?

[ And she jabs at Millie’s tag team title belt that’s draped over her shoulder. ]

“The Queen of the Ring” Millie McKenzie – Listen, if you two “working girls” are free Thursday night; why don’t you put your money where everyone else does and show up!!!

“Cotton Candy” Katie Forbes – You’re on bitch.

[ S.E.X. storms off as the show swings back to Caristico and Phillip ringside. ]

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Another huge match signed for Afterburn. I may just have to tune in and watch.

“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – I always tune in, but I have to mute it because I can’t stand listening to Pezzer run his yap.

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, our next match is a six-man tag team match and it features the Cartel taking on the Devils Rejects. This all started last week when Tito professed that they were the best stable in the Empire. Raven Horse took offense to it and issued the challenge which the Cartel gladly accepted. Let’s go back to the ring for this huge matchup.

The Cartel vs The Devils Rejects

The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The following six-man tag team match is set for one fall with a twenty-minute time limit. Making their way to the ring being accompanied by their manager Reverend Azazel, weighing in at a combined weight of 1,084 lbs., Raven Horse and the Natural Disasters, they are… the Devil’s Rejects!!!

[ The crowd boos as the Natural Disasters along with Raven Horse walk out on stage as “Red Purgatory” by Robert Russell echoes through the arena. Pyro explodes all around them as they walks down to the ring ignoring all the fans that are booing the shit out of them. All three men slowly climb into the ring as Reverend Azazel watches from the floor with a devilish grin on his face. ]

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – This monstrous team comes into this match with a two and oh record and seem unstoppable right now.

“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – These guys should be wearing tag team gold right now, but they have blown so many matches due to their disregard for the rules of the ring it’s incredible. I think that Reverend Azazel is doing all of them a huge injustice right now.

The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – And their opponents. Making their way to the ring being accompanied by Holidead, they weigh in at a combined weight of 586 lbs., this is “Relentless” Tito Escobar and Los Vipers; they are... the Cartel!!!

[ The crowd erupts in a chorus of boos as “8 Mile” by Eminem erupts across the arena and Tito Escobar struts out on stage all cocky followed by Los Vipers and Holidead. They slowly climb the ring steps and climb through the ropes. Pedro and Supremo each take a corner while Holidead bounces on the second rope with her tongue sticking out. Tito struts around with his arms out wide smiling!!! ]

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – It still seems odd to me to see the Cartel walking out to the ring tonight without the big man Mil Muertes in tow.

“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – This is what happens in any business if you fail to perform at acceptable levels. The Empire isn’t here to promote jobbers. We’re here to make superstars!!!

[ Pedro locks Ali in a sleeperhold. Ali is barely hanging in there as he reaches for the ropes when suddenly the Bullet Club storm the ring!!! ]

[ Travis Blake kicks Pedro in the back of the head forcing him to release Ali who rolls out of the ring under the bottom rope. Tito and Santos try to get into the ring but Tanga Loa and Tama Tonga stomp away on them as they try and climb through the ropes!!! ]

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – The Bullet Club is picking the Cartel apart!!!

[ Tanga Loa and Tama Tonga stomp the hell out of Los Vipers as Tito crawls toward Travis. Travis arrogantly smiles at Tito, points his fingers at him like he’s holding a gun at him and then destroys Tito with Weapon X (the Last Shot)!!! ]

“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – I would normally ask for someone to come out and help these guys, but the Cartel deserves everything they are getting right now!!!

[ Travis demands a mic and Harvey hands him one. Travis points down at Tito... ]

“The Face of the Empire” Travis Blake – This... this is the best stable the Empire has? These ass clowns are the best you’ve got? Are you kidding me? This has got to be some God damn joke right? You all paid good money to see the best stable and the Empire hands you this horse shit and expects you to eat it!!!

[ Travis points at the Guerillas of Destiny and himself. ]

“The Face of the Empire” Travis Blake – We are the most dominant stable in the Empire!!! We should be main eventing every God damn show every night you turn your tv’s on!!! We are the future of the Empire, not this piece of shit Tito Escobar!!! Not the self-proclaimed Modern Day Messiah Prophet!!! And fucking certainly not that piece of shit Alexander Stone, who I beat up so bad that he can’t even show his face on tv again!!!

[ The crowd boos Travis at even the mention of Alexander Stone. ]

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – He thinks he’s a tough guy calling Stone out knowing that he’s not in the building!!!

“The Face of the Empire” Travis Blake – The Bullet Club is here to stay, and there aint a damn thing you or anyone else can do about it!!!

Time of match: 0:03:08

The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The winner of this match by disqualification, the Cartel!!!

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – It stinks that there has to be a winner and a loser in this match, but by the rules; the Bullet Club did attack Los Vipers so by the rules the Devils Rejects were disqualified.

“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – If the Bullet Club is trying to pick a fight they sure as hell picked the right guys to fight with because the Cartel is always in a fighting mood.

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – the best thing that could happen is that they end up destroying each other in the process. Folks, Kiera Hogan is standing by with our very own Maxwell Shaw. Let’s listen in.

[ The videotron comes on as it shows Maxwell Shaw standing next to Kiera Hogan. ]

Maxwell Shaw – Kiera, congratulations on your huge win at Summer Stampede when you defeated your former mentor, Malia Hosaka.

Kiera Hogan – Thanks. I proved all the doubters and all the haters wrong Sunday night, didn’t I?

Maxwell Shaw – Yes, you did.

Kiera Hogan – Malia is a great wrestler and she taught me almost everything that I know. But she can’t teach heart, and I have the biggest heart in the Empire and I will not stop fighting no matter what.

[ Kiera is interrupted as Shanna Furguson walks onto the set clapping. ]

“The Beast” Shanna Furguson – Look at what we got here. Another fresh face.

Kiera Hogan – What do you want Shanna?

“The Beast” Shanna Furguson – What I want to know is why after three matches I’m looking up at people like you in the rankings?

Kiera Hogan – People like me.

“The Beast” Shanna Furguson – That’s right, people like you!!! I wanna know why everyone’s got their panties in a bunch over little girls like you, Nicole Matthews and Millie McKenzie?

Kiera Hogan – If you wanna know so bad, why don’t you face me Thursday night on Afterburn?

[ Shanna smiles at her. ]

“The Beast” Shanna Furguson – I’ll think about it.

[ Shanna goes to walk off the set when she explodes at Kiera driving her into the wall. Shanna picks her up and hits the Beast Slayer (a sit down powerbomb into a pin) onto the concrete floor!!! She leans down and yells in Kiera’s face. ]

“The Beast” Shanna Furguson – You can bet your ass I’ll see you Thursday night!!!

[ Security and EMT’s rush to tend to Kiera as the scene switches back to Caristico and Phillip ringside. ]

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Shanna just lost her shit!!! What’s wrong with these people?

“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – I think it’s the pressure of being in the Empire and all that goes with it. This company has a long standing history of making stars and it goes all the way back to two thousand and two when we first opened as a regional company. Nobody wants to lose their spot and especially to what many consider to still be a rookie.

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, it’s time for tonight’s main event and it features a rematch of Summer Stampede. Solo Darling puts her newly won Women’s National title on the line against the former champion Maria Manic and it’s next!!!

[ A mixture of boos and cheers erupt as “Unbreakable” by Michael Elgin plays as Maria storms down to the ring and marches up the ring steps and climbs into the ring pissed off!!! ]

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Maria Manic is a menacing looking woman at one hundred and sixty-one pounds, and let me tell you; there’s not an ounce of fat on her. It’s all solid muscle.

“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – She’s a powerhouse and I was amazed that Solo was able to take the title away from her at the pay per view a few weeks ago. Tonight might be a different story as she’s not going to catch Maria off guard like she did last Sunday night.

The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – And her opponent!! Making her way to the ring, being accompanied by her manager Reverend Azazel, she weighs in at 122 lbs., this is the reigning Women’s National Champion; Solo Darling!!!

[ The crowd erupts booing as “Feel the Sting” by Kenny & Harley Wootton rocks the arena and Solo walks out on stage with her manager Reverend Azazel. Together they make their way down to the ring where she climbs in with a smile on her face as she raises the Women’s National title high overhead. ]

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – And here is the new Women’s National Champion full of smiles. We haven’t seen Solo smile in months.

“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – She hasn’t smiled since she hooked up with this loser Reverend Azazel and his Devils Rejects. This is the brightest spot in her career here in the Empire and she has this clown to thank for it. Give me a break.

Maria picks Solo up and nails Solo with an Exploder suplex into the turnbuckles folding Solo in half. Maria waits for Solo to get up and drives a lariat into Solo.
