Adrenaline
Live from the sold-out Tacoma Dome in Tacoma, Washington
Monday Night December 13th, 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 hitting “the Stonebreaker”, the Lynch Mob hitting “the Lynching”, Su Yim locking on “the Purge”!!! The crowd explodes as we see Godzilla hitting the Goodbye Tokyo, Chandler Hopkins turning someone inside out with the Wrangler and Amber Nova hitting the Nova Driver!!! The arena is rocking as "Warriors" by Imagine Dragons blasts across the arena in unison with the pyrotechnics that lights up the place up. The entire arena erupts in a chorus of cheers as the videotron pans around the arena and we can see dozens of fans holding up their hand made banners, “Godzilla is God”, “Tank is the G.O.A.T.” “Millie is my Queen” and “Pezzer is an Ass-hat”. 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 – Good evening, everyone. Phillip, what a massive three-night event the Empire just wrapped up first starting with Thanksgiving Afterburn, then going into Ladies’ Night Out and finishing strong with High Stakes. The Empire couldn’t have ended 2021 on a better note!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – No they could not. Our thanks to all the members of the staff that brought to us a great year of action and we hope that you will all stay with us as we head into 2022. I know that the staff have huge plans for the Empire including the 2022 Emperor’s Crown Tournament and the tournament to crown the brand-new World Cruiserweight champion. Both tournaments are slated to kick off in January of 2022.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – That’s are going to be some fantastic tournaments, but there’s more. The staff has locked down event centers around the world. Every Adrenaline, Afterburn and all the pay per view events will be held outside the United States and it al kicks off with Night one of Leap of Faith live from the Tokyo Dome in Japan.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Incredible news. We will not be broadcasting from the United States until we return home to Madison Square Garden on January 1st of 2023 for our New Beginning pay per view event!!! That’s over one hundred shows live from around the globe. Nobody does it like the Empire does.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – I hope you got your passport ready. It’s one of the longest road trips that I have ever been on. COVID be damned.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – That’s right. But let’s digress for a few minutes and talk about the fall-out from Thanksgiving Afterburn where we witnessed Go-D defend his World title against Prophet. In that match, Go-D retained, but he also took the Book of Prophecy from Prophet and well, let’s just say that Prophet has not been the same ever since.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – After Thanksgiving he went dark, and I don’t mean in an evil way. He disappeared from the scene only to show up on Afterburn Thursday night in a drunken stooper stumbling down to the ring during the Zealots match only to throw up all over the front row of fans. It appears that he is taking the loss of his book very hard.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – That’s an understatement. Earlier today our cameras were at a Superstar Meet-and-greet session with the superstars of the Empire and well, let’s just say that things went a little sideways when Prophet showed up. Let’s watch.
[ The videotron comes on showing a Superstar Meet-and-greet session inside the arena hours before the show starts. Some of the biggest names in the Empire including Travis Blake, Aoife Valkyrie, Massive Mike, Chandler Hopkins, Solo Darling and many, many more. Things are going very well, and a great number of fans are leaving satisfied spending time with their favorite stars, up until the point where Prophet stumbles into the hall stone cold drunk, with two beer cups in his hands. He pushes his way through the sea of fans, spilling his beers all over them. As he gets closer to the front of the crowd he sees Go-D sitting at a table next to Conner Edge. The World title propped on the table next to the Book of Prophecy that once belonged to him. ]
“The Chosen One” “The Modern-Day Messiah” Prophet – Dat’s mine!!! Dat’s my… my… book!!!
[ He slurs his words almost incomprehensible and staggers over to Go-D. He reaches down, still holding his cups of beers and tries to finagle picking his book up but just spills his beers all over the table. Conner and Go-D shoot out of their chairs trying to avoid the beer from getting on their clothes. ]
The World Heavyweight Champion Go-D – What the fuck is wrong with you?
“The Cowboy from Hell” Conner Edge – I’m going to break your friggen neck!!
“The Chosen One” “The Modern-Day Messiah” Prophet – I wanna my book back!!!
[ Go-D snatches his world title and the book off the table before they get wet as Prophet continues to lean forward dumping the remaining contents of his beer cups all over the table. This interaction starts to draw the ire from the crowd as many parents are ushering away their underage kids not wanting them to see this. Shane McMahon, just a few tales to the left of the incident sees what’s going on and rushes over. ]
The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – Prophet, what are you doing?
[ Prophet turns to Shane and tries to explain himself and his bad breath is enough to knock Shane out. ]
“The Chosen One” “The Modern-Day Messiah” Prophet – He took my book and I weally want it back. Give me my book!!!
[ Prophet starts to climb over the table at Go-D, but with the beer all over the table he cannot get his footing and looks like a fish out of water as his legs go one way and his arms go another as he splays himself all over the table. ]
The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – You’re embarrassing yourself. Here, let me help you.
[ Prophet refuses Shane’s help as he swings wildly and pops Shane in the nose!!! Shane starts to bleed profusely, and he grabs a handkerchief to try and stem the blood flow. ]
The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – God damn-it!!! Security!!!
[ Four security guards rush over and try and subdue the drunken Prophet, but he manages to get away and rush through the crowd in a drunken stooper bowling people over as the madcap security guards give chase!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – As you can clearly see, the former World Champion is not in his right mind right now; but let’s try and stay focused on tonight’s matches and boy what a card we have for you folks that are tuning in from wherever you may be. In his second TV title defense we will see Alexander stone take on Mance Warner. Stone defeated DDP at high Stakes for the title and Mance dropped a brutal match against Conner Edge that saw Mance get branded right on his chest. Mance has since covered up that branding with a tattoo, but you can be sure that he hasn’t forgotten that match.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – I’m just glad to see that TV title being defended each and every show like it was meant to be. We have not seen this since Hopkins held the title. Let’s see if Stone can beat Hopkins run at eighty-four days.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – That would be an incredible run considering how many men he will have to go through to get there. In Women’s tag team action, we are going to see the two newcomers Jessie Elaban and Lia Rose in action as they take on Blue Nation.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Jessie and Lia had a real good showing at Ladies’ Night Out when they defeated Caged Heat. Tonight, it doesn’t get any easier as they go up against Blue Nation who is coming off a tough loss to Bloody Mary and Havok in that Triple Threat match for the Women’s World Tag Team titles at Ladies’ Night Out. They are looking to rebound in a big way and make an example of these two young women.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – In six-man tag team action, the New Regime look to get some payback for the sneak attack at High Stakes when the Bullet Club attacked them and filmed it for their enjoyment. This one could get ugly.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – The bullet Club are out to make a statement and they used the Zealots and the New Regime to do it. Don’t fool yourself for a second and think that the New Regime won’t be out for blood tonight. Oh, and the Zealots; you better have your head on a swivel because they haven’t forgotten about you guys either.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Another big match is Massive Mike taking on the former TV champion DDP. Page lost his TV title to Alexander Stone at High Stakes and Massive Mike overcame Legacy in a handicap match to prevail at the pay per view. Tonight, we see if Massive Mike can hang with the Empire’s very best or if he’s just a flash in the pan as they say.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – I think that this guy is the real deal. He beat two former World Champions and he did it in convincing fashion. Not to mention that they now have to work for him so this might be interesting.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – November sure didn’t go the way Legacy had hoped, but for the next two men we are going to see it sure has been a pretty good month as Chandler Hopkins takes on Mitch Fierce.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Hopkins defeated Jake Owens at the pay per view while Mitch beat the entirety of the Million Dollar Dream Team to take Tony Tran’s $100,000!!! A win tonight might propel either man into the top five and get within striking distance of the World title.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – All that and it leads to the main event where we will see Godzilla and Maverick take on Mil Muertes and Blood Hunter in tag team action. Thursday night, Godzilla laid down the challenge and the Cartel took the bait. I have to ask, was this a very smart choice by Godzilla going into this match against the Cartel who have a one-hundred-and-eighty-pound weight advantage.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Think about it. That’s like wrestling three men. Godzilla won’t back down from anyone, but this match might be a little more than either of them overcome.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, it’s time for the opening match of the night and we have women’s division action as Malia Hosaka takes on Kiera Hogan!!! Both women are coming off of tough losses at Ladies’ Night Out and are looking to rebound tonight and set their ships straight. Let’s get to the ring as Harvey is ready for the opening introductions!!!
In the opening match of the Evening
Kiera Hogan vs Malia Hosaka
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The following match is set for one fall with a twenty-minute time limit!!! Making her way to the ring weighing in at 114 lbs., this is… Kiera Hogan!!!
[ The crowd gives her a mixed reaction over her newfound attitude as “Love, Fury, Passion, Energy” plays as Kiera Hogan walks down to the ring and climbs in, posing on the second turnbuckle ignoring all the haters. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Kiera lost a tough match to Millie McKenzie at ladies’ Night Out where the Women’s World title was on the line. In doing so, Kiera now cannot challenge Millie for the World title as long as Millie holds it.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – That was a stinging loss for Kiera. She’s worked so hard to get to that point only to be beaten by someone that she considered her best friend. What I will also so though is that we have seen a little bit of an attitude change from Kiera in the past few weeks. She’s starting to show her meaner and more vindictive side of her.
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – and her opponent. Making her way to the ring weighing in at 130 lbs., this is… Malia Hosaka!!!
[ The crowd gives a mixed reaction tonight as “Head like a hole” by Nine Inch Nails plays, but they are dumbfounded as Malia Hosaka never comes out. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, I am getting word that there has been some sort of altercation backstage. Let’s watch and see what’s going on. ]
[ The videotron comes on and we see Malia Hosaka on the floor screaming in pain as EMT’s try and treat her. Gail Kim is overseeing the situation and she notices the camera crew nearby. ]
The Women’s Division General manager Gail Kim – That’s enough!!! Shut it down!!!
[ You can hear Malia cry out in pain as the show cuts back to Phillip and Caristico at the announcers desk. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – It is pretty obvious that Malia was attacked by someone prior to her match tonight. I am pretty sure that once she gets treatment, she will tell Gail who that person was, and she will hand out the necessary discipline.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Call me crazy, but I have a feeling that the perpetrator is standing dead center in the ring right now!!!
[ Kiera smiles as she asks for a mic and Harvey hands her his. ]
“The Queen Slaya” Kiera Hogan – Poor, poor Malia. That really looks like it hurts. Well, sucks to be her. Referee start counting.
[ The referee has no choice but to start the count when suddenly “Make me smile” by Louise Dowd & Jason Tarver rocks the arena and Courtney Cox makes her way out on stage followed by Aoife Valkyrie in street clothes. ]
Aoife Valkyrie – Don’t do this!!! You got nothing to prove tonight!!!
[ Courtney ignores Aoife and marches down to the ring and climbs in and Aoife follows her but walks around the ring apron instead of climbing in as Kiera just smiles at them both. ]
“The Queen Slaya” Kiera Hogan – What do we have here? You sure you wanna do this Lois Lane? You sure you can handle the beating you’re about to get?
[ Courtney seems adamant as she motions Kiera to bring it. ]
Aoife Valkyrie – She doesn’t know what she’s doing!!! Just stop, alight? Don’t do this!!!
[ Kiera smiles at Aoife. ]
“The Queen Slaya” Kiera Hogan – Aoife, I don’t think Courtney is listening to you? What’s the matter? Trouble in the bedroom?
[ Kiera laughs as Aoife looks away remembering that kiss she shared with Courtney in the gym. Kiera points at Aoife. ]
“The Queen Slaya” Kiera Hogan – Get that bitch out of my ring.
[ The referee forces Aoife to the floor as Kiera hands the mic back to Harvey. The referee talks to Harvey and informs him that Courtney is going to wrestle the match in place of Malia. ]
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – Making her way to the ring first weighing in at 110 lbs, this is... Courtney Cox!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Courtney has had very little time to prepare for this match and she is walking in to face a buzz saw in Kiera Hogan. I don’t think this was a very smart move on her part.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Anger can make you do some pretty stupid things Phillip. She is way out of her league tonight and this match may be over pretty quickly. She’s still pretty green when it comes to in-ring action. She is just two and four.
[ The referee calls for the bell and they lock up. Kiera Hogan uses a Russian legsweep on Courtney Cox and then hits a standing moonsault onto her going for the pin as Todd Sinclair counts …1 …2 …and Courtney gets her shoulder up!!! Aoife pounds her hands on the ring apron trying to motivate Courtney. ]
“The Queen Slaya” Kiera Hogan – This is too easy. Show me something, anything!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Kiera’s taunting Courtney right now as she drags her to her feet by a handful of hair.
[ Kiera Hogan goes for a spinning backbreaker, but Courtney Cox counters it with a spinning headscissors. Courtney Cox nails Kiera Hogan with a diving Meteora in the corner. Courtney drags Kiera out of the corner and rolls her up as Todd Sinclair counts …1 …2 …and Kiera gets her shoulder up!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Nice counter by Courtney caught Kiera flat footed and she nearly stole the win.
[ Courtney Cox goes for a Curb Stomp, but Kiera Hogan rolls out of the way. Kiera Hogan attempts a corner forearm smash, but Courtney Cox explodes out of the corner and spears Kiera Hogan. Courtney Cox is going for the cover as Todd Sinclair counts …1 …2 …and Kiera kicks out!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway - Courtney seems a bit irritated right now as she is complaining to the referee about a slow count. This is not like her at all. Something is really bothering her.
[ Courtney goes for a bulldog, but Kiera Hogan throws her off and hits a monkey flip on Courtney Cox. Kiera Hogan drills a roundhouse kick into Courtney Cox. Kiera Hogan nails Courtney Cox with an Exploder suplex into the turnbuckles. Kiera Hogan whips Courtney Cox into the ropes and drives a high knee into Courtney Cox who then stumbles back crashing into Todd Sinclair. Kiera Hogan covers Courtney Cox, but there is no referee to make the count!!! ]
“The Queen Slaya” Kiera Hogan – Are you kidding me?!
[ Kiera screams as she stomps her feet on the mat pissed off. ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Kiera could have won this match on that series of moves if Courtney didn’t bump the referee, but I don’t think it requires a temper tantrum.
[ Kiera Hogan drags Courtney to her feet and attempts a spinning backbreaker, but Courtney Cox counters it with an elbowsmash to the side of her face. Courtney Cox goes for a basement dropkick to the knee, but Kiera Hogan jumps out of the way and nails an Exploder suplex into the turnbuckles on Courtney. Kiera Hogan goes for the pin as Todd Sinclair counts …1 …2 …and Courtney gets her shoulder up!!! Kiera laughs at Courtney as she slaps her on the back of her head. ]
“The Queen Slaya” Kiera Hogan – You think you’re something special? You’re not good enough rookie!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Talk about adding insult to injury. Who does Kiera Hogan think she is?
[ Kiera Hogan drives a roundhouse kick into Courtney. Kiera Hogan attempts a springboard armdrag, but Courtney Cox catches her and hits a belly-to-back suplex. Courtney Cox locks Kiera Hogan in a figure-four leglock. Kiera Hogan is inching her way towards the ropes. Kiera Hogan tries to fight the pain. Kiera Hogan is writhing in pain.

Kiera Hogan hits a Slingblade on Courtney Cox. Kiera Hogan runs into the ropes and Courtney Cox levels her with a shoulderblock. Courtney goes for the cover as Todd Sinclair counts …1 …2 …and Kiera kicks out!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Just when you think Kiera is about to end this thing, Courtney finds a way to pull some sort of trick out of bag to stay alive.
[ Courtney Cox goes for a back elbow, but Kiera Hogan ducks out of the way and whips Courtney Cox into the ropes, but Courtney comes off and drives a spear into Kiera Hogan. Kiera staggers into the corner and Courtney hits a Stinger Splash on her. Courtney nails Kiera with a dropkick from the second rope. Courtney drives a European uppercut into Kiera Hogan. Courtney Cox runs into the ropes and hits Kiera Hogan with a clothesline. Courtney runs into the ropes and hits Kiera Hogan with a drop kick. Courtney goes for the cover as Todd Sinclair counts …1 …2 …2 ½ …and Kiera kicks out!!! Courtney screams at Kiera… ]
Courtney “Loves” Cox – Fight me!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Courtney has Kiera reeling right now as she can feel the energy from the sold-out stadium pumping her up!!!
[ Courtney Cox runs into the ropes but Kiera Hogan hits Courtney Cox with a back body drop.

Courtney Cox drives a forearm to the back of Kiera Hogan. Courtney goes for a Cradle DDT, but Kiera Hogan counters it with a small package roll-up as Todd Sinclair counts …1 …2 …and Courtney gets her shoulder up!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Excellent counter by Kiera to roll Courtney up with that small package. I don’t think that this match is going anywhere near what Kiera had expected tonight!!!
[ Kiera Hogan chops Courtney Cox. Courtney Cox kicks Kiera Hogan. Courtney Cox chops Kiera Hogan. Courtney Cox hits a Discus lariat on Kiera Hogan that drops her in the corner. Courtney Cox charges in and nails Kiera Hogan with a Meteora. Courtney rolls Kiera up as Todd Sinclair counts …1 …2 …and Kiera grabs the bottom rope!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Great ring awareness by Kiera to know exactly where she was in that ring to just reach out and grab the rope like that.
[ Courtney attempts a figure-four leglock, but Kiera Hogan kicks her off. Kiera Hogan whips Courtney Cox into the ropes and nails a dropkick on her. Kiera Hogan hits her own Meteora on Courtney Cox and then rolls her up as Todd Sinclair counts …1 …2 …2 ½ …and Courtney puts her foot on the bottom rope!!! ]
“The Queen Slaya” Kiera Hogan – Noooo!!!!
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Kiera is on the mat pulling her hair out right now wondering why she can’t put Courtney away.

Kiera rolls out of the ring as Aoife tries to help Courtney to her feet, but Courtney shoves her away and she too leaves the ring alone leaving Aoife standing there wondering where their friendship is heading. ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Kiera may have gotten the win tonight, but it was not a convincing win as she had to pull out all the stops to put Courtney away. I cannot wait to see these two women go at it again down the road. Maybe we will see a different outcome.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, I am getting word that Conner Edge is standing by with our very own Maxwell Shaw. Let’s listen in to hear what he has to say after his big win over Mance Warner at the pay per view.
[ Maxwell Shaw stands with Conner Edge backstage; Conner is dressed in a fancy new leather vest and some nice-looking jeans with a brand-new Stetson cowboy hat on his head. He puts some dip in his mouth and is using an old beer bottle to sip. ]
Maxwell Shaw - Conner, you got the big win over Mance Warner at High Stakes, but he says you aren't done fighting each other.
“The Cowboy from Hell” Conner Edge - Hey, he wants another beating, well I guess I'll give it to him until it takes. You see he covered up my beautiful branding with a symbol of hate? Keep claiming it's history boy, we all know what it really means. Hopefully I can knock some sense into you next time.
Maxwell Shaw - You've recently joined up with Legacy at a time it desperately seems to be needing new blood.
“The Cowboy from Hell” Conner Edge - Look, Go-D isn't dumb, he like all of us saw the spiral the older guys are going into trying to keep up with the younger generation and before he needed a life preserver, he brought in the biggest hoss he could. This is a partnership of mutual respect and interest. I wasn't going anywhere staying Tank Edge's boy, now, watch what I can do when I’m allowed to fully be me and unleash myself.
Maxwell Shaw - I imagine you'll be looking to enter into a title picture soon.
“The Cowboy from Hell” Conner Edge - I got my eye on a couple belts, the TV title seems like it'd be a good proving ground.
Maxwell Shaw - Are you stepping up to be Alexander Stone's next open challenger?
“The Cowboy from Hell” Conner Edge - Patience, Maxwell, is a virtue. I'll let him weed through some of the lower ranks before I make my move. See I know he's running with my old crew and believe me; I know they are like an amoeba that gets in your brain and slowly eats away at it. He'll always be a tough boy, there’s no doubt about that, but I'm going to bide my time and when the moment is right, you better believe I'm going in and taking that belt.
Maxwell Shaw - Before you go, you recently were spotted talking to the tag champions, what was that about?
“The Cowboy from Hell” Conner Edge - It was about a turkey named friendship Max. Rasputin has been one of my best friends for years, we have a lot in common and very similar interests in the future. That's all I'm going to say for now.
Maxwell Shaw - Are you recruiting them for Legacy?
“The Cowboy from Hell” Conner Edge - You know, Rome didn't create a great empire by recruiting and having meetings, they did it by killing those who opposed them.
[ Conner leaves it at that and walks away as the show cuts back to the broadcast table. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – The one thing that this kid isn’t, is shy. He speaks his mind and he means every word of it. If he says he’s gunning for a title you better be damned well prepared for a fight.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – He mentioned the TV title specifically. I wonder if Stone heard that and what his take on it is going to be. What a match that would be.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, our next match pits the new TV champion Alexander Stone taking on Mance Warner. It was just one week ago at the pay per view that Stone defeated DDP in a tough match that gave Page his first loss since returning to the Empire. Thursday night on Afterburn, Stone defeated Pedro Supremo in his first title defense.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – This match should be good. Pedro competed against Stone last week and was way out of his weight class. Tonight, this will be a much more even match-up as both men are well within the heavyweight class. Mance is much more of a brawler while Stone leans more toward being a mat technician. Don’t get me wrong, he can brawl with the best of them too if need be.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Let’s see how Mance fairs in his first title match here in the Empire. Harvey, take it away buddy.
In an Open TV title Challenge
Alexander Stone © vs Mance Warner
The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The following match is set for one fall with a twenty-minute time limit and it is for the WWE TV title. Making his way to the ring, weighing in at 215 lbs., this is… “The Southern Psychopath” Mance Warner!!!
[ The sold-out crowd explodes to their feet booing as Mance Warner storms out on stage with that deadly riding crop in hand. He marches down to the ring to the music of “Simple Man” by Lynyrd Skynyrd before climbing in and raising the riding crop high in the air overhead to the booing of the fans. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Even though he got his ass whooped by Conner Edge at High Stakes, he still seems pretty full of himself coming into this match. Let’s listen in to what he had to say earlier.
[ The videotron comes on as we see Mance pacing around backstage. The new “Rebel Flag” tattoo stamped on his chest trying to cover up the branding that Conner gave him just a week ago. ]
“The Southern Psychopath” Mance Warner – Alexander Stone. The man who thinks he runs the place. Why is that, Alex? Is that because the ownership of the Empire kissed your ass to sign you up last year? Was it because the owner promised you the main event? Did he promise you the gold ring? The pay per view spotlight. I look back at the heavyweight tournament last year and I gotta tell you, it seems you were spoon fed guys that would assure you a trip to the finals. And they talk about Go-D being catered to. It seems someone else was blowing the boss too. Tonight, your reign as the top guy in the Empire comes crashing down. You call yourself “Pure Gold”, well I think you’re “Pure Bullshit”. Tonight, I take your TV title and I’m going to give you a lashing you’ll never forget!!!
[ Mance waves his riding crop in the air at the camera as the show swings back to the announce team. ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Strong words by the challenger, but it’s going to take more than words to defeat Alexander Stone. Only two men have managed to pin his shoulders to the mat in the nearly one year since the Empire reopened. I am hard pressed to believe that Mance will be the third.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – We will soon find out, but here comes the champion!!!
The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – And his opponent, making his way to the ring weighing in at 251 lbs.; he is the reigning and defending World Wrestling Empire Television Champion; this is… “Pure Gold” Alexander Stone!!
[ “Hyperpower” by Nine Inch Nails blares across the arena as Alexander Stone walks out on stage wearing his World Six-man Tag Team title belt around his waist and his brand-new TV title slung over his shoulder. Red, white and blue pyro explodes all around him as he marches down to the ring as fans explode to their feet cheering him on. The sold-out arena is deafening as he climbs into the ring, takes off his jacket and sunglasses off and tosses them to the floor. He mounts the middle turnbuckle and shows off his two title belts, proud of his achievements this year!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – The champion looks to be in great shape tonight even after that brutal attack this past Thursday night by Blood hunter and Mil Muertes that left him laying in the ring. Let’s listen in to hear what the champion has to say about that attack and much more.
[ The videotron comes on as we see the WWE TV Champion Alexander Stone wearing his white wrestling pants with the stars and stripes on it. He’s got on his red leather jacket with his dark sunglasses on to match. His World Six-man title belt around his waist and his new TV title slung over his right shoulder. ]
The WWE TV champion and World Six-man Tag Team Champion “Pure Gold” Alexander Stone – So, I need to get shit off my chest, and I don’t have a ton of time, so I’ll get right to the point. Let’s start with DDP. Man, you were a friggen legend back in the day. And as much as I enjoyed our match at High Stakes, you need to come to the realization that all this Legacy shit, it aint doing much for your career. You were a great champ, but when things went sideways in our match, where were your boys? Where were Crazy man and Messiah? Where was Go-D? How about Shane? Let me tell you where they were. They were in the back sucking up to your replacement Conner Edge. That’s right Page. They saw the next big thing coming and Go-D and Shane left you high and dry. It’s time for you to open your eyes.
[ Stone adjusts the weight of the TV title on his shoulder. ]
The WWE TV champion and World Six-man Tag Team Champion “Pure Gold” Alexander Stone – Felix Escobar. There’s no need for you to introduce yourself to me because you see I know a fucking gutter rat when I see one and you’re the lowest level of gutter rat. At least when I ran the Gold Standard I marched out with my boys and I led by example. I didn’t hang back on the stage like some fucking pussy while my hired hands did the dirty work for me. Felix, you got something on your mind, step up and say it to my face. Don’t send your three hundred pound bitches because I‘m just going to have to hut them.
[ Stone takes off his sunglasses and brushes back his blonde hair from his eyes. ]
The WWE TV champion and World Six-man Tag Team Champion “Pure Gold” Alexander Stone – That leaves just you Mance. The so-called Southern Psychopath. Great nickname. It’s just too damn bad that you don’t live up to it. Let’s be honest. You threaten guys by telling them you’re going to feed them to your gators? Who does that? This is wrestling, not another “Jackass” movie. Mance, you can talk all the shit you want about how you’re finally getting a title shot, but I’ll be blunt with you. The only reason you’re getting a TV title shot is because you’re ranked next to last in the division and I’m working my way up the ladder, unlike you who’s floating at the bottom. Tonight, will end no different than High Stakes did for you. With me standing over you and you looking up at the lights!!!
[ The show cuts back to the announcers desk. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Stone covered a ton of ground there and as always; he is not short on words. Let’s talk first about DDP. Is Stone right when he says that Legacy is moving on without Page?
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – I think they are. Conner is younger and hungrier than Page is. Not to mention that the guy comes from incredible genetic stock. Sky’s the limit for this kid, and smart thinking on Go-D’s part for looking ahead and planning for Legacy’s future.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What about Felix Escobar? What kind of game is Felix playing at, do you think?
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – I have known of the Escobar family for a long time. They are playing the long game right now. We are all like pieces on the chess board and they are the chess masters manipulating every one of us. I’m not sure yet what Felix’s ultimate plan is, but you can be sure that at the end of the day he will want gold around his waist.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Then there is Mance Warner. In a roundabout way he called Mance a bottom feeder and that the only reason he’s getting a title shot tonight is that Stone is working from the bottom up.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Stone said that to get under Mance’s skin. Mance is a very talented wrestler. Does he have the skills to beat Stone, time will tell. It’s going to be one hell of a mountain to climb I can tell you that. But I always go back to that one night in Japan when Buster Douglas knocked out Mike Tyson. It only takes one punch to get the job done. Stone might be the heavy favorite, but he has to be leery of this kids’ ability to take him out with that one single shot.
[ The referee holds the TV title up in the air for all to see and then hands it off to the ring attendant. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Here we go. Two big bulls are about to lock up!!!
[ They lock go to up and Mance Warner fakes the move and drives a headbutt into Alexander Stone. Stone is stunned as Mance sends Stone into the turnbuckle. Mance charges in with a big clothesline, but Stone lifts his leg and pops Mance in the face. Stone attempts a Discus lariat, but Mance ducks out of the way and drives a kneelift into Stone. Mance hits Stone. Stone chops Mance. Stone hits Mance. Stone punches Mance. Mance chops Stone. Mance comes off the ropes going for a high knee, but Stone ducks out of the way and goes for a DDT, but Mance counters it with an inverted atomic drop. Mance drives a double knife edge chop into Stone. Mance slams a back fist onto Stone. Mance throws Alexander Stone out of the ring and then rolls out under the bottom rope after him. Mance slams Stone into the ring post. Mance Warner nails Alexander Stone with a backbreaker. Mance Warner throws Alexander Stone into the guardrail. Mance Warner rolls Stone back into the ring. ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Right from the opening bell the Southern Psychopath has been taking it right at Stone even taking him to the outside where he loves to beat down his opponents.
[ Mance goes for a belly-to-back suplex, but Stone counters it with a go-behind and nails a dropkick to the back of Mance’s knee taking him down to the mat. Stone puts Mance in a boot choke. Mance tries to escape the hold and finally grabs the ropes. Stone runs into the ropes, but Mance hits Stone with a standing drop kick. Mance hits a legdrop on Stone. Mance climbs to the top rope and goes for a diving headbutt, but Stone rolls out of the way and Mance crashes headfirst into the mat. Stone tries an arm grapevine submission, but Mance blocks it and whips Stone into the ropes, but Stone reverses it and goes for a dropkick to the knee, but Mance leaps out of the way. Mance whips Stone into the ropes and nails a body slam on Stone. Mance tries a football tackle, but Stone counters it with a punt kick to the head. Stone hits a half nelson backbreaker on Mance. Stone goes for a back elbow, but Mance ducks out of the way and whips Stone into the turnbuckle. Mance runs shoulder-first into the corner, but Stone lifts his knee and slams Mance in the face. Stone hits a Cradle DDT on Mance Warner for the win as Joey Jiles counts …1 …2 …and Mance kicks out!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – That was the first bit of offense that Stone was able to pie together to get a pin attempt on Mance tonight. In-fact, that was the first pin attempt of the night by either man.
[ Stone drives a back elbow down on to Mance. Stone picks Mance up and goes for a Death Valley Driver, but
Mance counters with a swinging DDT!!! Stone slumps in the corner as Mance charges in when from out of nowhere Conner Edge explodes into the ring and decimates Mance with a spear!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – My God where did Conner come from?! He just wiped out Mance!!!
[ Joey Jiles immediately calls for the bell as he throws this match out!!! ]
Time of match: 0:06:26
The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The winner of this match by disqualification, Mance Warner!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Mance may have won the match thanks to Conner Edge, but Stone still walks out the TV champion and rightfully so in my opinion.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – We were seeing a very good match between these two men tonight, but the rage inside Conner fueled him to come out to the ring and attack Mance.
[ Referee’s flood the ring as they try and pry Conner off of Mance. A few solid forearm shots later and Conner is back on his feet. Stone marches right over to him grabbing him the arm and spinning him around to look him dead in the eye. ]
The WWE TV champion and World Six-man Tag Team Champion “Pure Gold” Alexander Stone – What the fuck is wrong with you?
[ Conner, in no mood to hear Stone’s shit shoves him in the chest. ]
“The Cowboy from Hell” Conner Edge - Get the fuck out of my face!!!
[ Stone laughs at him and then gets right back in Conners face… ]
The WWE TV champion and World Six-man Tag Team Champion “Pure Gold” Alexander Stone – Don’t hunt what you can’t fucking kill!!!
[ The two men go toe to toe as now the referee’s turn their attention back to Stone and Conner now trying to hold the two massive men apart. The fans go nuts hoping for an impromptu match when from the back the World Heavyweight Go-D rushes down the ramp closely followed by “The Ring General” Tank Edge. They both climb into the ring to join the fray with Tank trying to hold Stone back and Go-D trying to hold Conner back. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – The fans are blowing the roof off the arena right now as they are dying to see a confrontation between Go-D and Tank!!!
[ The mass of men in the ring culminates in the middle where Tank and Go-D back into each other!!! They each spin around and go nose to nose!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – This isn’t good!!! I thought they were out here to play peacemaker?!
The World Heavyweight Go-D – There you are. I thought you would never show your face.
“The Ring General” Tank Edge – I’m going to break your fucking face!!!
[ Tank lunges and tackles Go-D to the mat and all hell breaks lose all over again!!! More security floods the ring as now Stone and Conner are blasting each other!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway - Folks, as security tries to get control in the ring; let’s go to the back where our very own Maxwell Shaw is standing by with Blue Nation!!!
[ The show swings to the back where we see Charli Evans and Jessica Troy standing next to Maxwell Shaw. ]
Maxwell Shaw – Ladies, tough loss at Ladies’ Night Out where you were lost to Bloody Mary and Havok for the Women’s World Tag Team titles.
Charli Evans – Yeah, not our night. But Rome wasn’t built in a day and if anything, we learned a ton coming out of that match; and we know that this won’t be our last title shot. We are going to be around for a long time. There will be more opportunities down the road.
Maxwell Shaw – Tonight you face two women that are very new to the Empire, but they did get the victory over Caged Heat at the pay per view in Jessie Elaban and Lia Rose.
Jessica Troy – They are two very talented women and I believe that Jessie has done a great job teaching Lia what it takes to be successful in this business. I just don’t think that they have what it takes to beat us tonight.
[ The interview is interrupted by the new Women’s World Tag Team Champions Bloody Mary and Havok who can be seen each holding their tag team titles slung over their shoulders. ]
Maxwell Shaw – Ladies, first off congratulations on your win at the pay per view.
The Women’s World Tag Team Champions Bloody Mary – Thank you Maxwell. We figured that since it’s been a few weeks since the Empire has seen their champions on television, we would take the time right now to show off our beautiful belts.
Charli Evans – You do realize that this is our TV time, right? You guys should have slotted your own time.
[ Havok looks pissed. ]
The Women’s World Tag Team Champions Havok – Listen, losers; if we want TV time, we’re going to take it. These belts give us the right to do whatever we damn well please.
Jessica Troy – It seems someone’s ego barely fit through the door today. Listen, if it’s a fight you’re looking for; our dance card for Afterburn is wide open. And while you’re at it, why don’t you grow a set and put those titles on the line.
The Women’s World Tag Team Champions Bloody Mary – Maybe you haven’t noticed, but she’s a woman!!
Jessica Troy – Could have fooled me.
[ Havok is ready to beat Jessica down for calling her a man when Gail Kim walks onto the set. ]
The Women’s Division General Manager Gail Kim – That’s enough!!! Calm down all of you. We’re not doing this right now. If it’s a fight the four of you want then you can have it. This week on Afterburn in a non-title match.
[ Bloody Mary and Havok laugh at Blue Nation. ]
The Women’s World Tag Team Champions Bloody Mary – Non-title bitches, hahaha!!!
The Women’s Division General Manager Gail Kim – But if Blue Nation wins, they get a title shot at Leap of Faith!!!
[ Charli gets right up in Bloody Mary’s face. ]
Charli Evans – Warm those belts up cause come Leap of Faith they are coming home with us!!!
[ Blue Nation storms off as the videotron cuts to the office of Shane McMahon sitting back in his chair with his head back and both nostrils packed with gauze to try and stop the bleeding from his busted nose. A knock can be heard at the door. ]
The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – Com’in!!
[ The door opens and Jake Owens walks in dressed in street clothes. ]
The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – Si’dow.
[ He expresses himself through the gauzed nose. ]
The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – I sa si’dow!!!
[ Owens finally gets the picture of what Shane’s telling him and he pulls out the chair and sits down. ]
The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – Yu unda’stan dat yu viodated de contrac, correct?
“The Death Dealer” Jake Owens – Listen, let me save you the lecture boss and tell you that I don’t shovel shit for nobody. So, do your worse.
The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – Yu heaby suspendad fo tirty days wit-out pay.
[ Owens smiles at Shane. ]
“The Death Dealer” Jake Owens – You fucked me right before the holidays. Such a Legacy dick.
The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – We will ca yu whe yu can rejoi da tou.
“The Death Dealer” Jake Owens – Kiss my ass.
The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – Kip it up an I will mak it two month!!!
[ Owens storms out of Shane’s office slamming the door shut behind him. He doesn’t get a few feet out the door and he sees Tony Tran standing there in an expensive suit and tie with sunglasses on. ]
“The Million Dollar Man” Tony Tran – Tough break. And right before Christmas too. What they say about those McMahon’s is true. They don’t have any heart.
[ Owens stops and glares at Tran. ]
“The Death Dealer” Jake Owens – What the fuck do you want?
“The Million Dollar Man” Tony Tran – Well, I am here to make you an offer that well, quite honestly; it seems like you can’t refuse.
“The Death Dealer” Jake Owens – What’s it pay?
[ Tran smiles at him. ]
“The Million Dollar Man” Tony Tran – Ah a man after my own heart. What’s the old saying “Every man has a price”? Come with me and we will discuss the terms of our agreement.
[ Tran and Owens walk off as the show cuts back to Phillip and Caristico at the announcers desk. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What the hell is Tran up to now? Wasn’t it bad enough that he lost his hundred grand to Mitch Fierce back at high Stakes?
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – If I had to guess, this has everything to do with Mitch Fierce. The big man better have eyes in the back of his head later tonight.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, it’s time for women’s tag team action as Blue Nation takes on Jessie Elaban and her tag team partner Lia Rose. Let’s get back to the ring for more in-ring action!!!
Jessie Elaban and Lia Rose vs Blue Nation
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The match is set for one fall with a twenty-minute time limit!!! Making their way to the ring first, weighing in at a combined weight of 280 lbs, Charli Evans and Jessica Troy; they are... Blue Nation!!!
[ The crowd goes wild as "Live in Dread, Girl" by Ghosts of Sadako rocks the arena and Charli walks out with her tag team partner Jessica Troy. They high five each other and rush the ring, diving under the bottom rope and sliding to the center of the ring where they pose for the fans!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Even though Jessica and Charli lost their first title match at Ladies Night Out they should very proud of what they have achieved so far in such a short amount of time.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Even with that loss they are still four and four and are ranked second for the Women’s World Tag Team titles. This will be another good test for these women tonight to see if they can stay ahead of the rest of the pack.
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – And their opponents. Making her way to the ring first, weighing in at weight of 130 lbs, this is... Jessie Elaban!!!
[ She walks to the ring, waving to the fans before doing Santana Garrett's twirl. She lowers her glasses to the crowd, being playful towards them as “The White Stripes” by Seven Nation Army plays throughout the arena. The crowd chants "Ohhhh Jessi Kamea!!!” at her, and she loves it as she climbs in the ring. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Jessie wrestled a great match against the former two-time tag team champions Caged Heat and even scored the pinfall victory with her Axe Kick to the back of Delta’s head.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – It was an incredible debut match for these two women, but it was spoiled by the unprovoked attack by SEX who came into the ring after the match and laid both women out.
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – And her tag team partner. Making her way to the ring weighing in at weight of 130 lbs, this is... Lia Rose!!!
[ As "Brass Bonanza" by Gil Imber plays, Lia skips out, then stopping to give hugs to fans. She then sits on the ropes pumping the crowd up. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – For being the rookie of the group Lia wrestled the match of her life, but it was spice who laid her out with her huge pink vibrator after the match was over. Let’s hear what they had to say earlier tonight.
[ The show cuts to a pre-taped recording… ]
Jessie Elaban - So after a win last week, SEX, for whatever reason, decided to attack us, then break my glasses. Well, little do they know that both of us have about 20 backup pairs. I’m wearing one now. But the fact is SEX, what you did makes you cowards!
[ Jessie sported extra thick bifocals, as those were her backup pair of glasses, while Lia had her usual small, square glasses, thought Jessie was trying to talk her into getting bifocals, so they’d match in all aspects of costume. Lia then tags in, slipping her glasses up. ]
Lia Rose - What are you, some sort of rejects from Mean Girls? You come out here, run your mouths, then break her glasses? SEX, this is not high school. Fact is, your little mean girls act doesn’t scare either one of us. We’ve all heard it before.
[ What most didn’t know is that while Jessie was a lesbian, Lia was bisexual. They had fallen for each other while wrestling an indy show in Texas. They’d been together for about a month and got more madly in love with each other as time went on. But in promos, Jessie wore headgear as well as braces and glasses. As she puts it on, she speaks. ]
Jessie Elaban - That’s exactly why I got into sports in school. To prove that nerds could do it too. It’s the same reason we’re both wrestlers. And whether it be SEX or Blue Nation, we’re here to prove to our fellow nerds that you can do anything you want, no matter what you look like. Remember that, fans. Lia and I have glasses and braces, yet we’re both very skilled wrestlers. And SEX you’re going to soon see what happens when you mess with nerds. But first, we’re gonna use Blue Nation to make an example of you. Count on it.
[ The show cuts back to the broadcast table. ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Since Ladies’ Night Out, SEX has yet to make a statement regarding their attack on Jessie and Lia. We were hoping to hear from them tonight, but so far nothing from the Rated R team.
[ Charli and Jessie start the match off as Charli runs into the ropes and hits Jessie with a kick. Charli hits an arm twist ropewalk chop on Jessie. Charli uses a Russian legsweep on Jessie. Charli tries a standing moonsault, but Jessie gets her knees up right into Charli’s breadbasket. Jessie goes for the cover as Yali Sapphire counts …1 …2 …and Charli kicks out!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Charli started the match off hot but it was that one ill-advised move that almost cost her dearly when she missed the standing moonsault.
[ Lia enters the ring to make it two-on-one. Jessie and Lia whip Charli into the ropes and they attempt to hit Charli with a double clothesline, but she counters it with a duck-down move and hits them with a double clothesline.

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Another big win for Jessie and Lia tonight as the defeated Blue Nation and move to two and oh in the tag team division.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – I have to think that the earlier confrontation with Bloody Mary and Havok took their eyes off the ball and they may have overlooked Lia and Jessie tonight.
[ “Tattooed Angel” rocks the arena as Spice and Katie Forbes walk out on stage in matching bra and panties. The men in the crowd are loving what they are seeing as they go nuts cheering for them!!! ]
“Cotton Candy” Katie Forbes – Oh stop, you’re embarrassing yourselves.
“A Slice of” Spice – That’s right boys. All your old ladies now know that while you’re fucking them doggie style at night, you’re dreaming about us!!!
[ All the women in the crowd boos them. ]
“Cotton Candy” Katie Forbes – You know it’s true. It’s a fact that every man dreams about being with women like us while they are fucking their wives.
“A Slice of” Spice – Think about it. What man wouldn’t want to have a piece of us, instead of women like those two bitches in the ring!!!
[ Spice points her footlong pink vibrator at Jessie and Lia. ]
“Cotton Candy” Katie Forbes – Wait, hold on sweetie; we can’t pick on them or they are very sensitive about being you know; the “L” word.
“A Slice of” Spice – The “L” word? Lazy? Lame? Losers?
“Cotton Candy” Katie Forbes – Lesbians, sweetie.
“A Slice of” Spice – Well fuck me sideways!!!
“Cotton Candy” Katie Forbes – I think we have that on DVD somewhere.
“A Slice of” Spice – That and a ton of other positions too!!!
“Cotton Candy” Katie Forbes – Ladies, before you ramble on about how special you think you are, you’re not. When it comes to breaking ground here in the Empire, we do things that’ll make the two of you queen’s blush.
“A Slice of” Spice – I’ve been in thirty-two hardcore porn movies!!! I’ve done everything from Bi, lesbian, straight, intergender and anal!!!
[ The fans cheer for that anal part!!! ]
“Cotton Candy” Katie Forbes – I love anal too!!! And cowgirl, and reverse cowgirl and...
“A Slice of” Spice – That’s enough, they get the point. Ladies, two wins don’t make you anything but a target; and if you think playing the lesbian angle is going to get you brownie points, you’re sadly mistaken. So, unless your finger banging her in the middle of that ring, you better get creative really quick because these fans are going to chew you up and spit you out.
“Cotton Candy” Katie Forbes – I don’t usually spit. I find that offensive to the guy I’m with.
“A Slice of” Spice – I’m a swallower too!!!
[ And they high five each other to the cheers of the crowd. ]
“A Slice of” Spice – Ladies, next week on Adrenaline; leave the glasses at home because we are going to school both your asses on the art of wrestling!!!
[ Katie lifts her shirt up bouncing her big tits up and down!!! ]
“Cotton Candy” Katie Forbes – I want my Jerry beads!!!
“A Slice of” Spice – Wrong show sweetie.
“Cotton Candy” Katie Forbes – Oh.
[ The camera cuts back to the announcers desk. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – I am really at a loss for words right now. Just when you think you have heard everything and anything that SEX can say, they come out here and talk about anal sex again!!!
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – I’m pretty sure that the FCC is going to fine the hell out of us after a segment like that. This is the problem with broadcasting live every night. You never know what is going to be said or what your going to see especially when SEX is around.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, let’s take a break and head to the back because I am hearing that Travis Blake is standing by with the Bullet Club and he has a few things on his mind. Let’s listen in.
[ The videotron comes on as it shows the United States Heavyweight Champion Travis Blake backstage with the Guerillas of Destiny by his side. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “The Face of the Empire” Travis Blake – Where oh where are the all-powerful New Regime? Boys, don’t tell me you lost your balls and you’re running scared. Don’t tell me that after one little sneak attack you boys are gonna take your ball and run back to Japan?
[ Travis laughs. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “The Face of the Empire” Travis Blake – You guys are pathetic. What, you two were supposed to be two of Tank’s finest students? The best Japan has to offer? You boys are pathetic. Me and my Guerillas punked your bitch asses out at High Stakes and you did nothing!!! Not a word from the two of you. Not that anyone could understand that broken English shit anyway. It’s like the two of you are talking with someone’s dick in your mouths.
[ They all get a good laugh. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “The Face of the Empire” Travis Blake – Oh and Zealots. Nothen from you two clowns either? You’re just going to let us bitch you two out too and you’re going to act like it meant nothing? Oh wait, you’re too busy keeping Prophet off the booze. The guy loses his stupid book and you think that it’s the end of the world or some shit. Suck it up boys. The Guerillas are coming for their tag titles and there’s nothing any of you can do to stop them.
[ Travis smooths out of beard. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “The Face of the Empire” Travis Blake – Then I heard whispers. Little subtle whispers in the back like scratches on the chalkboard. I get stopped on the way into the arena. Travis, have you heard the news? Mitch Fierce is talking mad shit about you. He’s the new number one contender to your US title. He’s calling you out. He wants your belt.
[ Travis looks dead serious into the camera. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “The Face of the Empire” Travis Blake – Mitch Fierce, you listen and you listen really good because I’m about to tell you a story that you’re not going to like to hear. You’re nothen but a flash in the pan. Just another guy that walked into MY Empire and got lucky enough to beat a bunch of nobody’s to pad his record. Yeah, that might get you the number one seed on paper, but it means nothen to me. Zero. Nadda. Zilch. You’re not shit. I know it, the Guerillas know it and all those marks that follow you on Facebook, Twitter or whatever stupid account you got know it. You’re just another big guy with less talent than Kahagas.
[ Travis slaps his US title belt. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “The Face of the Empire” Travis Blake – Take a good long look at this belt because the closest you’re ever going to get to it is when I’m on the shitter and you see it on the floor under the stall. Do yourself a favor Mitch and keep my name out of your mouth because if you ever speak my name again, I’m going to rip those words right out of your hole. Stick with the TV title old man. I would hate to see you embarrass yourself.
[ Travis points his finger guns right at the camera. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “The Face of the Empire” Travis Blake – Everyone’s got a bullet with their name on it Mitchie old boy. Don’t make me pull the trigger!!!
[ The Bullet Club walk off as the show cuts across the arena where we see Maxwell Shaw standing next to the former TV champion Diamond Dallas Page. ]
Maxwell Shaw – DDP, at High Stakes you not only lost your TV title to Alexander Stone, but you also lost your opportunity at a rematch.
Empire Hall of Famer Diamond Dallas Page – Yeah, shit didn’t go as planned. Stone’s one of the best and that’s why when I was the GM of the Empire, Mark and I went out and signed this kid. Except for a short stint on the injured list, he’s been one of the cornerstones of this company right along with Amber Nova.
Maxwell Shaw – Looking back at your match, what went wrong?
Empire Hall of Famer Diamond Dallas Page – What went wrong? You’re kidding right? What went wrong was the fact that he got the TV title shot. Listen, no excuses; he kicked my ass and he deserved to walk out as champion and I deserved to lose. It’s time to wipe the tears and move on.
Maxwell Shaw – Move on? Are you talking about possibly the United States title or maybe a match against Go-D for the World title?
[ Page smiles. ]
Empire Hall of Famer Diamond Dallas Page – Listen, at my age it’s all about titles. I aint got the time or the physical body to work my way up the rankings. If I’m going to go after belts, it’s gotta be now.
Maxwell Shaw – Right now you are ranked fourth in the World title hunt with Massive Mike right behind you at five. This is going to be another huge match for you where if you lose you could see yourself plummet down and maybe right out of contention.
Empire Hall of Famer Diamond Dallas Page – Ok, let’s pump the brakes on this kid Massive Mike for a second. The kid’s big and he wears a goofy fucking mask. But other than that, there’s no substance to him. One way or another, he’s going to get a taste of the Diamond Cutter just like everyone else.
[ Just then, the World Heavyweight Champion Go-D walks onto the set with Conner Edge right behind him. ]
The World Heavyweight Champion Go-D – We need to talk.
Empire Hall of Famer Diamond Dallas Page – You got something to say, just say it.
The World Heavyweight Champion Go-D – I meant alone.
[ Page looks over Go-D’s shoulder. ]
Empire Hall of Famer Diamond Dallas Page – Alone? Since when is that monkey on your shoulder part of Legacy?
[ Conner is sick and tired of the shit he’s been getting and makes a move to go after Page but Go-D holds him back. ]
The World Heavyweight Champion Go-D – Listen, he’s part of us now. He’s the future of Legacy. But what I have to say can’t be said around big ears here.
[ And Go-D nods at Maxwell who is listening to every word they say. ]
Empire Hall of Famer Diamond Dallas Page – Fine, let’s talk.
[ They walk off as the show cuts back to the broadcast table. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Tensions are running extremely high right now within Legacy. Go-d is making some decisions that are not sitting well with the rest of the group.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – When you think of Legacy you think about guys like Page, Tank, Pezzer, Crazy Man, Messiah and Go-D. I am still a little confused as to where Conner Edge fits into the bigger picture.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – I have no idea, but maybe that’s what he’s talking to DDP about. Laying it all out for him to get a better understanding. Folks, our next match is a six-man tag team match where we will see The New Regime and Kahagas take on the Bullet Club. After what Travis and his Bullet Club have done and said, this match is going to be a war!!! Let’s rejoin Harvey already in the ring!!!
The New Regime vs The Bullet Club
The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The following match is set for one fall with a twenty-minute time limit. Making their way to the ring being accompanied by Paul Heyman and weighing in at a combined weight of 614 lbs., Tanga Loa and Tama Tonga along with Travis Blake; they are... the Bullet Club!!!
[ The sold-out crowd goes nuts booing as “The Firing Squad” by No Name Tim rocks the arena as the two Samoan warrior’s walk down to the ring led by Travis Blake on point. The Guerillas climb into the ring and they each take a turnbuckle getting the crowd pumped up as Travis bounces on the middle rope showing off his United States title belt high over-head. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – The Bullet Club come into this match with a six and one record with their only defeat coming at the hands of the Three Best Friends on Thanksgiving Afterburn when they were defeated for their World Six-man Tag Team titles.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – It’s been an incredible run for Travis Blake and the Bullet Club as a whole. Now it seems that the Guerillas have set their sights on getting back the World Tag Team titles. Championships that they held for eighty-four days until losing them to the Chain Gang back at Eve of Destruction.
“Party in the Back” JoJo Rodriguez – And their opponents. Making their way to the ring weighing in at a combined weight of 685 lbs., they are the World Tag Team Champion Shinigami Shogun, Rasputin Ito and Kahagas; they are... the New Regime!!!
[ The crowd goes crazy booing as “Tubular Bells” by Mike Oldfield rocks the arena as the three Japanese superstars make their way down to the ring and climb in. Ito and Shogun each mount a turnbuckle and shows off their tag team titles and Kahagas kneels in the center of the ring blowing red mist in the air!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – And here comes the Japanese superstars known as the New Regime!!! These three men are a force of nature as they have swept the globe and now reign as the World Tag Team Champions here in the Empire.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – As a trio’s team they are winless, but in tag team action they have yet to taste defeat increasing their record to six and oh when they defeated Legacy back at Thanksgiving Afterburn to retain their titles. That was the first of many disappointing defeats for Legacy over those three nights.

Tanga Loa uses an armbar takedown on Kahagas. Tanga Loa comes off the ropes and drives a football tackle into Kahagas.

[ Travis uses a bulldog on Shogun. Travis hits a fallaway slam on Shogun. Travis nails Shogun with a tiger driver and rolls him up for the win as Todd Sinclair counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Shogun kicks out!!! ]

[ Tanga Loa tags himself in and tries for a clothesline, but Shogun counters it with a crucifix pin attempt as Todd Sinclair counts ...1 ...2 ...and Tanga gets his shoulder up!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Incredible counter by Shogun to avoid that clothesline and get that pin attempt.
[ Shogun tags out to Kahagas who hits an Exploder suplex into the turnbuckles on Tanga Loa. Kahagas nails a jumping thrust kick into Tanga Loa.

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What a back-and-forth match by these two very evenly matched teams right now. If there was one week spot, I would have to say it’s Kahagas, but even he is showing signs of brilliance tonight.
[ Kahagas goes for a standing dropkick, but Tama Tonga catches him and side slams him to the mat and goes for the pin and uses the ropes for leverage as Todd Sinclair counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and the referee sees it and waves off the count as he gives Tama shit about cheating!!! ]

The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The winner of this match by pinfall, the Bullet Club!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Another win by the Bullet Club tonight as they expose Kahagas and take him out for the win. Tough loss for the World Tag Team Champions!!!
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – I would hate to think that Kahagas is the weakest link in the New Regime chain, but the Bullet club must have saw something when scouting these guys and new exactly who to go after.
[ The crowd pops as "Cathedral" by WCPM rocks the arena and the Bullet Club halts their celebration to look back up the rampway and see the Zealots coming right at them. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Maybe the Bullet Club is about to get paid back in kind for what they did to the Zealots at High Stakes!!!
[ The Zealots make it to the bottom of the rampway ready for a fight when “The Power of I and I” by Shadows Fall plays and the former World Heavyweight Champion Prophet stumbles on drunken legs with two beers in hand out on stage. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – He has turned into a huge embarrassment to himself and everything that he believed in. All of this over some damn book?
[ The Zealots peer back up the ramp and watch as Prophet stumbles down the ramp toward them spilling most of his beer along the way. The Bullet Club gets a good laugh at Prophets expense as he stops at the bottom of the ramp and looks up at Travis Blake who just leans against the ropes. ]
“The Chosen One” “The Modern-Day Messiah” Prophet – I will send you back... I will... I...
[ Prophet loses his train of thought and takes another swig of beer that mostly ends up all over his beard and chest. ]
“The Chosen One” “The Modern-Day Messiah” Prophet – To Hell with you!!!
[ Travis asks for a mic and Harvey hands him one. He taps the head of the mic to make sure it is live... thud, thud, thud and then points at Prophet. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “The Face of the Empire” Travis Blake – Oh how the mighty have fallen!!! Prophet, the man who was supposed to lead us out of the darkness and back into the light. Our savior!!! Our chosen one!!! Now all your good for is drinking all these people’s beer!!!
[ Prophet heard very little of what Travis said and comprehended even less, but he got the gist that it wasn’t good so he starts to climb the ring steps. The Zealots try and stop him, but he shoves their hands away and climbs up onto the ring apron. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “The Face of the Empire” Travis Blake – I don’t think you want any part of this!!!
[ Prophet gives Travis the middle finger and Travis smiles. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “The Face of the Empire” Travis Blake – Now that wasn’t very nice.
[ Travis drops the mic, grabs Prophet by his long greasy hair and flings him into the ring right on his back. Prophet grabs his lower back screaming in pain. Travis measures him up and nails him with the Weapon X (the Last Shot)!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – My God that didn’t end well!!!
[ The Zealots throw their hands in the air and walk back up the ramp leaving Prophet to his own demise. The show cuts to the back where we find Jessica McKay seemingly looking for something as Cassie Lee follows her confused. ]
Cassie Lee - What are we searching for?
Jessica McKay - We're not looking for anything, I just need to talk to someone.
Cassie Lee - Who?
[ Suddenly from out of a locker room walks Bret “The Hitman” Hart. He starts walking down the hall. ]
Jessica McKay - BRET!!!!
[ Bret turns around and they run up to him. ]
Bret “The Hitman” Hart - Ladies.
Jessica McKay - Bret, have you seen Godzilla Sanchez around?
Cassie Lee - Wait, who?
Bret “The Hitman” Hart - Funny you should ask.
[ Bret suddenly pulls off his wig and glasses and we see it's actually Godzilla in costume. ]
Cassie Lee - Ugh, idiot, why are you dressed like Bret Hart?
“The Heartbreak Kaiju” Godzilla Sanchez - It was going to be for an Empireshop.com commercial, but we’ve run into an issue.
[ Godzilla opens the door to the locker room, and we see Alexander Stone and Maverick standing in their underwear in an argument. ]
Maverick Edge - I called being Owen weeks ago.
The WWE TV champion and World Six-man Tag Team Champion “Pure Gold” Alexander Stone – You know that’s not the agreement we have. Godzilla said …1 …2 …3 …and I called Owen, I get to be Owen.
Maverick Edge - But your built like British Bulldog.
The WWE TV champion and World Six-man Tag Team Champion “Pure Gold” Alexander Stone – We have a British Bulldog.
[ He points to a corner and we see an English bulldog in the corner dressed in a Davey Boy Smith costume. ]
Maverick Edge - That is so cute.
The WWE TV champion and World Six-man Tag Team Champion “Pure Gold” Alexander Stone – Just be Brian Pillman, he was Flying Brian and you’re a pilot.
Maverick Edge - Ugh, that makes sense.
[ Godzilla closes the door. ]
“The Heartbreak Kaiju” Godzilla Sanchez - Well that was three hours of rehearsal time.
Jessica McKay - That's actually what I wanted to talk with you about.
“The Heartbreak Kaiju” Godzilla Sanchez - Those guys fighting over cosplay.
[ Jessica takes a deep breath as Cassie openly has a mocking laugh as Godzilla’s comment. He looks as Cassie annoyed. ]
Jessica McKay - No sweetie, I had an idea for merch for Empireshop.com.
“The Heartbreak Kaiju” Godzilla Sanchez - I'm always open to ideas.
[ She opens the jacket she's wearing, and we see she's wearing a Godzilla Sanchez bra and panties (Godzilla on one breast, Sanchez on the other and his face on the panties part) Godzilla and Cassie Lee's jaws drop. She takes Godzilla's hand and puts it on her breast. ]
Jessica McKay - Just feel the fabric they use, isn't it soft.
“The Heartbreak Kaiju” Godzilla Sanchez - Oh it's so very hard....I mean soft...well it's not soft, it’s long at least.
Cassie Lee - What is going on here? Jessica, have you lost your mind?
“The Heartbreak Kaiju” Godzilla Sanchez - It feels so good, so satisfying...I bet it'd be a big seller.
[ Jessica takes Godzilla's hand and kisses it. He's blushing pretty noticeably. ]
Jessica McKay - Maybe, we can go to dinner and talk about some other things I had in mind.
“The Heartbreak Kaiju” Godzilla Sanchez - Oh yeah, dinner sounds great, we can go right now.
Jessica McKay - Aren't you the main event tonight?
“The Heartbreak Kaiju” Godzilla Sanchez - Girl, you got no idea.
Cassie Lee - Am I in crazy town? Jessica, what did Kahagas mist do to your brain?
Jessica McKay - Call it a date then.
[ Cassie Lee looks incredulous and stomps away. ]
“The Heartbreak Kaiju” Godzilla Sanchez - Yes, yes, we shall.
[ Jessica kisses him on the cheek and walks away as Godzilla stands, covering his lower self with the Bret wig. Stone and Maverick come out of the dressing room in their Owen Hart and Brian Pillman costumes, they see the mean girls walking away and Godzilla stuck in a trance like stake. ]
The WWE TV champion and World Six-man Tag Team Champion “Pure Gold” Alexander Stone – What'd they want?
“The Heartbreak Kaiju” Godzilla Sanchez - Champs de fraises pour toujours.
[ Stone and Maverick look at each other and shrug as the show cuts back to the announcers desk. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What the hell is Jessica McKay up to with Godzilla?
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – I don’t think it’s true love Phillip. As we all saw earlier with SEX, this isn’t the Lifetime Movie Network.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Far from it. Folks, we have a huge match right around the corner as Diamond Dallas Page takes on the big fan favorite, Massive Mike. Let’s rejoin Harvey in the ring!!!
Massive Mike vs DDP
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 accompanied by Mike Thompson and Chris Simmons; he weighs in at 455 lbs.; this is Massive Mike!!!
[ The crowd roars to their feet as “Baby Got Back” by Sir Mix a lot explodes through the PA system and the biggest man on the Empire roster, Massive Mike; walks out from the back followed by Messiah and Crazy man dressed in jeans and wearing Massive Mike tee-shirts that are flying off the shelves at EMPIRESHOP.COM!!! The crowd begins their chant... ]
The sold-out crowd – Mike!!! Mike!!! Mike!!!
[ He stands at the top of the ramp with a microphone in hand. Surprisingly there are immense amounts of cheering in the crowd. ]
Massive Mike - It's an honor to be standing where I am today. You've seen all the hard work I've put into this federation during the past month. I'm sure it took many of you by surprise. I'm guessing some of you even thought I was going to lose my match against legacy and would have gone through some boot camp.
[ Massive Mike pauses for a moment. ]
Massive Mike - Let's be real though, there's no way I could lose to those who are beneath me. Besides I'm like a walking weapon between my stomach and ass!
[ Massive Mike grabs his gut and begins to shake it toward the audience. He chuckles a few times. ]
Massive Mike - But before we continue, I want to thank these two men standing behind me. Messiah and Crazy man. They pushed me far enough to recreate new versions of my finishers. Bare assed versions, and I must say they're a real game changer.
[ Massive Mike turns himself around, pulls his thong down and moons the audience for a few seconds. Both members of Legacy cringe. ]
Massive Mike - Take a good long look at the crack of life!
[ Massive Mike bellows out in laughter as he returns his thong into a normal position, no longer exposing himself to the crowd. ]
Massive Mike - Tonight I'm not too worried about my match with DDP. Because I have my sights on something else. Tonight, is the beginning of the future for the Empire. It's only a matter of time before I rise to the top, and anyone who stands in my way will get a taste of this crack!
[ Massive Mike drops his microphone and stomps down to the ring and climbs in as Crazy man and Messiah walk around the ringside area belittling the fans that are jeering them. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – The fans really love this guy. He’s coming off a huge win at High Stakes when he defeated the two men standing at ringside looking none too happy.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Massive Mike comes into this match with an excellent five and one record and is currently ranked fifth in the World title picture right behind the man that’s about to make his entrance.
The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – And his opponent. Making his way to the ring weighing in at 248 lbs., this is... Diamond Dallas Page!!!
[ The sold-out crowd boos as “It’s me. It’s me. It’s D… D… P!” rocks the arena and Diamond Dallas Page struts out onto the stage. Page walks down to the ring and climbs in making the sign of the Diamond Cutter to the crowd who continues to boo him. Page doesn’t seem to care about the fan reaction as turns around and stares down Massive Mike. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Tough loss for Page at High Stakes a week ago when he dropped the belt to Alexander Stone in a brutal match that saw Page succumb to the Stonebreaker.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Unbelievably, that was Page’s first loss since rejoining the Empire this year. That loss dropped him down to fourth place in the World title rankings. Now, after listening to him earlier; it seems he might have his sights set on loftier prizes.
[ The referee makes sure both men are ready and then calls for the ball as they lock up.

Massive Mike hooks Page’s legs as he rolls him up and Yali Sapphire counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Crazy Man puts Page’s foot on the bottom rope saving him!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Crazy Man might be working for Massive Mike right now, but his heart is still with his Legacy brother as he just saved him from taking a loss.
[ Massive Mike hits the ropes going for a legdrop, but Page rolls out of the way. Page hits the ropes and destroys Make with a basement clothesline. Page is going for the pin as Yali Sapphire counts ...1 ...2 ...and Crazy Man holds down Massive Mike’s feet ...2 ½ ...and Massive Mike shoots his shoulder up and everyone in the building is stunned!!! ]

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Page has made every attempt to get that mask off of Mike. He knows that it can be a huge distraction for the big man who refuses to show his face.

[ Massive Mike looks frustrated as he rolls Page up again hooking both legs this time as Yali Sapphire counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and DDP gets his shoulder up!!! ]

“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – What a shoulder tackle by Page to take the five-hundred-pound monster down. But for what it’s worth, it wasn’t enough to win the match.
[ Page whips Massive Mike into the ropes and drives a lariat into Massive Mike. Massive Mike comes right back and drives Page’s head into the top turnbuckle.

The two combatants turn to face each other as the bell rings and the time limit has expired!!! ]
The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – This match has been deemed a time limit draw!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What a brutal match out there tonight. Page tried his best to hit the Diamond Cutter on three separate attempts but each time he could not get his hands around Mike’s huge neck.
[ Mike stands in the center of the ring looking dead into DDP’s eyes. He raises his hand and Page looks down at it. Page reaches out and shakes Mike’s hand pulling him in close and whispering something into his ear for a second. As they break apart, Page raises Mike’s hand and the crowd cheers them on for showing great sportsmanship. Page points at Mike as he walks back toward Crazy Man and Messiah confused as fuck as to why Page would show mercy. Page motions for them to let it go and he rolls out of the ring and heads back up the ramp. ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – What an incredible show of sportsmanship by DDP tonight as neither man got the win, but Page seemingly acknowledged that Massive Mike was the better man.
[ Page stands at the top of the ramp, turns back toward the crowd and gives the sign of the Self-high Five!!! Suddenly from the back, Conner Edge explodes at Page and destroys him with a double axe-handle blow that drives Page to his knees. The World Heavyweight Champion Go-D walks out barking instructions at Conner. ]
The World Heavyweight Champion Go-D – Take his ass out!!!
[ Conner reaches down and wraps his massive hand around Page’s head and then drives him down onto the steel ramp with the Iron Claw Slam!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What in the hell is Go-D doing?! He just took out another Legacy member!!!
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – I have to think that the private conversation that Page had with Go-D didn’t go so good if he’s now attacking Page and leaving him for dead!!!
[ Messiah and Crazy Man watch from the ring as Massive Mike tells them both to help Page out!!! Together, Crazy Man and Messiah rush up the ramp as Go-D and Conner slowly and methodically walk to the back leaving Page for dead. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, as we try and sort this mess out; let’s go to the back and hear from both Chandler Hopkins and Mitch Fierce before their match which is coming up next.
[ The videotron comes on as it shows Cindy Meyers standing next to Chandler Hopkins who has a bandage on his head from the shovel shot he took from Owens Thursday on Afterburn. ]
Cindy Meyers – Chandler, at High Stakes you defeated Jake Owens earning yourself the opportunity to bring Owens to your ranch and make him do whatever you wanted for a day. We all watched how that went down Thursday night on Afterburn when he attacked you with that shovel knocking you out. Now earlier tonight, we all learned that Shane suspended Owens for thirty days due to the contract violation. What are your thoughts.
“The Outlaw” Chandler Hopkins – My thoughts? My thoughts is that Owens is a cowardly prick. He wouldn’t shovel a little shit so he violated a legal contract and attacked me. You can be damn sure that when his thirty days are up, I’m going to be waiting at the door for him and that the first face he’s going to see is mine!!! Payback’s a bitch and I plan on fucking him up!!!
Cindy Meyers – Tonight you go up against the monstrous Mitch Fierce. For the past month, Mitch has steamrolled right through the Million Dollar Dream Team, even taking one hundred thousand dollars from Tony Tran.
“The Outlaw” Chandler Hopkins – Listen, I seen the footage. The guys big. He’s got huge muscles. He’s got a hot chick. But I got heart and determination. If he thinks he’s going to walk out to that ring tonight and that I am going to lay down for him he’s got another thing coming. This cowboy don’t lay down for no man!!! So, Mitch, you can bring all that anger and hate with you, because tonight you’re looking right down the barrel of one of the best damn “Outlaws” in the Empire today.
Cindy Meyers – Good luck tonight. Maxwell, over to you.
[ Backstage Mitch Fierce is loosening up for his match against Chandler Hopkins when he is approached by Maxwell Shaw and the camera crew. Mitch gives Maxwell a daggered look. ]
Mitch Fierce - What do you want Max? Don’t answer that. You want to know what I think about my match against Chandler Hopkins right? No, no; better yet you want to know if I’ve spent all of the 100,000 dollars of Tony Trans money. Oh wait, maybe you like everybody wants to know how it’s going with me and Aoife? Any problems going on with us? Let me answer your questions Max. No, I invested the 100,000 and going to make a killing in money. What’s going on with me and Aoife and how it’s going or any other personal things that might be going on in our relationship or otherwise going on is just that. Its personal. Nunya damn business. Aoife is a fantastic woman believe me she beats out any woman I've known. Did I cover everything there, Max?
Maxwell Shaw - You didn’t say anything about your match tonight against Chandler Hopkins
Mitch Fierce - Oh yeah. Who the hell is Chandler Hopkins?
Maxwell Shaw – He’s your opponent for tonight.
Mitch Fierce - Sounds like that cowboy guy. Is it that cowboy guy, Max?
Maxwell Shaw - Yes, it is. Seriously? You don’t know who Chandler Hopkins is?
[ Mitch smirks then laughs. ]
Mitch Fierce - Seriously do you think I give a damn who he is? He must not be anybody for me to bother with getting to know about. You know something though Max?
Maxwell Shaw - What?
Mitch Fierce - I can tell you exactly who Chandler Hopkins is...Another victim. Another victim of the Fierce Bomb and being defeated. You see Max, tonight out there in that ring you’re going to see a very different Mitch Fierce. I’m going to live up to my name Fierce. Tonight, you’re going to witness along with all these people in the Tacoma Dome the Mitch Fierce of the old days. The Mitch Fierce that destroyed his opponents. The Mitch Fierce with one single focus and that’s tearing anybody apart that gets in my way of becoming a champion which reminds me, I like to injure my opponents if Hopkins don’t want to be put on the shelf tonight then he needs to keep his ass out of my way and out of my ring its best for his wellbeing if he does. Tonight, Chandler Hopkins is my first victim on my way to getting what I want. I’m ranked number 1...1! in the United States Heavyweight Championship rankings and I'll be damned if I’m going to be overlooked for a title shot while some other nobody gets a shot at the US title before me. Travis Blake, Mr. So called face of the Empire or whatever the hell you call yourself listen up and listen good boy. I’m coming for that US title. I’m coming for you! I know you’re probably not going to take me seriously and try to overlook me like I’m a crazy old man. Crazy? Maybe just a little. Stupid? Not by a long shot. I’m not going to sit around and wait. I’m not going to watch some nobody leap frog over me and get a US title shot. You aren’t invincible Travis. If you choose to ignore me then I will get your attention one way or the other. As for you Chandler Hopkins? Hell, I’m guessing your no Tony Tran because you actually might put up a fight but it will be futile. My old grandma could whoop Tran and his Golden BoyZ asses. Believe me when I say this Hopkins heed my words...
[ Mitch looks dead into the camera anger on his face. ]
Mitch Fierce - After I’m done with you tonight it’s going to feel like you’ve been run over by a semi-truck over and over again. You'll be lucky if you walk out of the ring and not be carried out boy. You think you got it all figured out how to beat the monster? The genetic marvel? What you think you know you don’t know but do know you’re going to get a beatdown like none you’ve ever had before. You’re going to feel the pain, maybe even blood trickling down your face when I unleash the TRUE side of me and that’s very bad for you Hopkins. The true Fierce side of me is going to mop that ring with you tonight Chandler. Be lucky if there’s anything left of you that’s recognizable when it’s over! Pray that for your sake Hopkins I don’t decide to prolong your suffering or hurt you that I decide to end it fast and just Fierce Bomb your ass through the ring! I’m coming for you Hopkins! Be afraid boy!
Maxwell Shaw - Strong words Mitch but Chandler Hopkins is better than Tony Tran
[ Mitch glares at Maxwell. ]
Mitch Fierce - I don’t give a damn how good Hopkins thinks he is he’s nothing. He’s barely an anybody just barely but to me he’s a nobody and tonight, I put Hopkins down like a dog! Now, if there’s nothing else get the hell out of my face. I got an ass kicking to deal out to Chandler Hopkins then I’m going back to the hotel because I got plans with a very special and beautiful woman Aoife. Go away Max now!
[ Max hurries away with the camera crew as it then goes back to the announcer’s table. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, we will dive deeper into our next match, but we need to tell all of you that Diamond Dallas Page has been taken by ambulance to a local hospital for further evaluation after being brutally assaulted by Conner Edge and the World Heavyweight Champion Go-D. We are being told that there might be serious injuries to his neck and upper spinal area. As soon as we know more, we will bring it right to you.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Phillip, this is such a tragic tale of a team that had it all; but are on the cusp of disintegrating right before our very eyes. Page lost his TV title and now seems to be tossed out of Legacy. Crazy Man and Messiah lost their match to Massive Mike and are now seemingly exiled. Conner Edge is brought in and he’s showing a much more ruthless edge to himself. What kind of Legacy are we looking at going into 2022 is anyone’s guess, but it doesn’t seem good does it?
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – No it does not. And for Diamond Dallas Page, who is sixty-five years old by the way; and injury like this could shelve him forever. This is not the way Page wants to be remembered. Folks, it’s time to turn to our next match of the night and it’s a big one. Mitch Fierce will be taking on Chandler Hopkins and it’s coming up next. Let’s go back to the ring and join Harvey Weinstein once again for the introductions!!!
Mitch Fierce vs Chandler Hopkins
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 weighing in at 290 lbs, this is... Mitch Fierce!!!
[ The crowd roars to their feet booing as “Ladies and Gentlemen” by Saliva hits over the PA system as Mitch Fierce walks out from backstage and pyros shoot off behind him. He then makes his way to the ring paying, no attention to the fans as he climbs the ring steps entering the ring and shakes the ropes angrily. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – As much as Mitch has been through, these fans continue to boo him. One would think that he would have earned at least their respect for taking out the Million Dollar Dream Team.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – It’s a love, hate thing Phil. John Cena always got booed and he was a baby face for life. Tank was the nastiest guy in the Empire for years and the fans loved to cheer for him.
The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – And his opponent. Making his way to the ring weighing in at 185 lbs.; he is “The Outlaw” Chandler Hopkins!!!
[ The Texas Cowboy struts out on stage as “The Rodeo Theme” by Chandler Hopkins and Magnificent Malico rocks the arena. The crowd cheers him as he walks down to the ringside area. He slowly climbs the ring steps and waits on the ring apron as the referee has to restrain Owens from going after him. Owens repeatedly points up at the cross. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What a stretch this young man has been on as of late. He defeated Jake Owens at High Stakes just to be laid out on Afterburn when he tried to cash in on his contract.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Jake Owens may have thought he did the right thing, but as we all learned earlier tonight; he’s going to lose a ton of money riding the pine for the next thirty days. Dumb move if you ask me.
[ The referee calls for the bell and they lock up. Hopkins attempts an Exploder suplex, but Mitch counters it with an elbowsmash to the side of the head that rocks Hopkins. Mitch runs into the ropes and misses with a clothesline, but Hopkins comes off the far ropes and levels Mitch with a diving clothesline of his own. Hopkins gets back to his feet and runs into the ropes and nails Mitch in the back of the head with a thunderous basement dropkick!!! Hopkins covers Mitch up as Ken Peterson counts ...1 ...2 ...and Mitch kicks out!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Very smart game plan by Hopkins to keep Mitch grounded. If you can keep the big man off his feet, you will have neutralized his power game and folks, this guy is scary powerful.
[ Hopkins sends Mitch into the turnbuckle, but Mitch reverses it and Hopkins crashes in. Mitch attempts a chokehold, but Hopkins blocks it and hits a cradle piledriver on Mitch. Hopkins runs into the ropes, but Mitch gets to his feet and levels hits Hopkins with a spinning back elbow. Mitch delivers a pumphandle backbreaker on Hopkins. Mitch goes for an Exploder suplex, but Hopkins blocks it and whips Mitch into the ropes. Mitch rockets off and takes Hopkins inside out with a running lariat. Mitch drags Hopkins to his feet and starts laying in on him with rapid fire chops. Hopkins gets a huge burst of energy from the fans and drives Mitch’s head into the top turnbuckle!!! Hopkins punches Mitch. Hopkins kicks Mitch. Mitch chops Hopkins. Hopkins chops Mitch. Hopkins nails Mitch with another headsmash into the top turnbuckle. Mitch is dazed and Hopkins hits a fallaway slam on Mitch and hooks the legs for the cover ...1 ...2 ...but Mitch gets his shoulder up!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Hopkins has to hope that he has withstood Mitch’s early barrage and that if he can dig deep enough, he can beat this beast of a man.
[ Mitch sits up and Hopkins nails a jumping side kick into Mitch. Hopkins drags Mitch to his feet and sends him into the turnbuckle. Hopkins charges into the corner, but Mitch moves out of the way and Hopkins drives his right shoulder into the unforgiving ringpost!!! Hopkins staggers out of the corner holding his shoulder and arm in pain when Mitch levels him with a Discus Punch. Mitch attempts a front face-lock, but Hopkins has him well scouted and pushes off the ropes with his feet rolling Mitch over onto his back for the ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Mitch reaches out managing to grab the ropes!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What a sensational move by Hopkins to roll through that submission move by using the ropes to get the pin attempt on Fierce!!! Hopkins is wrestling the match of his life right now!!!
[ Hopkins pulls Mitch away from the ropes and locks him in a Calf Crusher. Mitch is frantic as the pain is excruciating!!! Mitch presses upwards and walks on his hands toward the ropes and grabs them. Hopkins drags Mitch to his feet and hits a fallaway slam!!! Hopkins hits Mitch with a scissor kick to the back of the neck!!! Hopkins goes for a figure-four leglock, but Mitch uses his powerful arms and legs to roll it over putting all the pressure on Hopkins!!! Both men stagger to their feet on damaged legs and it is Mitch that levels Hopkins with a Discus lariat. Mitch gets a boot choke on Hopkins against the ropes on Hopkins and the referee starts his count ...1 ...2 ...3 ...4 ...and seemingly Mitch isn’t about to let go when "Wake of The Dream" by Mudvayne explodes across the arena and Mitch spins around to see Tony Tran walk out on stage all dressed up in a business suit and tie with dark sunglasses on and a shit eating grin on his face. ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – What the hell does this clown want?
[ The crowd boos as Tran slowly raises the mic to his mouth. ]
“The Million Dollar Man” Tony Tran – Mitch, Mitch, Mitch, did you really think that this little dance between you and I was over? Did you really think that I would let you walk away with all that money and not at least give you one last parting gift? Hell, it was a hundred thousand dollars; buddy!!! Just think about what you could do with all my money!!! You could buy a house!!! Buy a couple of cars!!! Or maybe, just maybe; you could rent a couple of penthouse suites and bang the crap out of Aoife all night. You know who Aoife is right? Young, hot; Irish girl.
[ Tran motions to someone backstage and Jake Owens drags out Aoife Valkyrie by her hair. A trickle of blood can be seen coming from the right corner of her mouth. A blackeye is starting to form around her right eye. ]
“The Million Dollar Man” Tony Tran – Let’s just say that she wasn’t very enthusiastic about coming out here. Hey, maybe she’s a little camera shy? Either way, Jake persuaded her and here she is. But you have to be asking why? Why did I go through all this? Why is Aoife out here? Why is Jake Owens out here? Well let’s start with the obvious. I paid Jake to be out here. I paid Jake to make sure that, like it or not; Aoife was out here. You see Mitch, you need to be taught a lesson. You need to learn that there is a hierarchy here in the Empire. I’m the Alpha dog, and you’re just a little bitch. Now we can do this the easy way, or we can do this the hard way. The easy way is for you to take the count-out loss and walk up this ramp and save the damsel in distress; or you can go back to doing whatever you were doing out there with Hopkins and we will end this little tryst you’ve been having with Aoife ourselves!!!
[ The crowd boos their asses off as Owens sets Aoife up for the Instant Death (pop-up knee smash to the face)!!! Tran smiles as he watches Mitch think long and hard. ]
“The Million Dollar Man” Tony Tran – Come on Mitchie, you would think if you really cared for this woman, it would be an easy decision!!! Save the girl, or feed your ego?! What’s it going to be? The girl, or your precious rankings? Oh, I heard what you said earlier about the US title rankings. Mr. Number One Contender. How far do you think you’ll fall if you take the loss tonight? But!!! But, but, but can you really live with yourself if you don’t save her?
[ The crowd boos Tran even louder. ]
“The Million Dollar Man” Tony Tran – Come on Mitch, time’s money. What are you going to do???
[ Hopkins comes from behind and starts to club Mitch from behind. Mitch takes the shots, but it seems to have the opposite effect as Hopkins would have hoped as it charges him up. Mitch spins around and drives Hopkins across the ring into the corner folding the smaller man in half!!! Fierce spins Hopkins around and glares with intense hatred up at Tran who just smirks at Mitch. Mitch screams in rage as he nails the Fierce Bomb (a spinebuster set-up into a fierce Sit-out Powerbomb) on Hopkins!!! Mitch rolls Hopkins up for the ...1 ...2 ...3!!! ]
Time of match: 0:09:44
The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The winner of this match by pinfall, Mitch Fierce!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What a decision he had in front of him. I am afraid that this is going to change him for a long time to come.
[ Tran smiles at Mitch as he does a cheesy clap for him. ]
“The Million Dollar Man” Tony Tran – Great job big guy, great job. But it’s going to cost yah.
[ Tran nods at Jake Owens who grins evilly from ear to ear as he sends Aoife into the air and blasts her in the face with the Instant Death (pop-up knee smash to the face)!!! Aoife screams out in pain as she grabs her face trying to stop the flow of blood from her shattered nose!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – My God what kind of evil man is Jake Owens to devastate Aoife like that!!!
[ Tran and Owens walk off the stage as EMT’s, Gail Kim and Courtney Cox rush out to help Aoife who is screaming in pain. Mitch leaves the ring and makes his way to the top of the ramp and tries to help, but Courtney shoves him away screaming at him. ]
Courtney “Loves” Cox – This is your fault!!! This is all your fault!!! She’s hurt because of you!!! You and your precious ego!!! This is how you show you care about hew, you son of a bitch!!!
[ The Women’s World Champion Millie McKenzie comes out and pulls a pissed off Courtney Cox away from Mitch as the EMT’s put a neck brace on Aoife and places her on a stretcher quickly wheeling her to a waiting ambulance. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, it’s a tough time for this; but we need to debut the brand new EMPIRESHOP.COM commercial right before the Christmas holiday!!! This should be good.
[ We open on a cartoon town as a familiar but legally changed music starts up, suddenly on the screen pops up. ]
It's an Empireshop.com Christmas, Godzilla Brown.
[ We cut to a field where a Godzilla Sanchez, dressed similar to Charlie Brown but changed just enough to get by legal, is running towards a girl in a blue dress holding a football for him. As he gets in kicking distance, she pulls the football and he goes up in the air and crashes to the ground. Now that she’s standing, we see the girl is Amber Nova. She spikes the ball onto Chuck Brown's groin and joins the other members of the Bullet Club in mocking poor Chuck Brown. A cartoon dog that looks similar to Snoopy but is dressed like Maverick Edge walks up to the downed young man. ]
Moopey - Aw man Godzilla, you trusted the Bullet Club again?
Godzilla Brown - I know Snoop....er, Moopey, I shouldn't, but they shop at Empireshop.com, that shows they have to have some good fashion sense, right?
Moopey - Well Godzilla Brown, the good news is, you can start shopping there too. And this Christmas season, they are offering all sorts of awesome deals.
[ Godzilla Brown pulls out a cell phone and his screen fills ours as we see product images with his voice over. ]
Godzilla Brown (v.o) - Buy one get one half off on all shirts! 10 percent off all Ugly Christmas sweaters! And now featuring hot coco mugs with any member of the Empire roster on them.
Moopey (V.O) - And with every purchase they'll toss in a free Travis Blake action figure since we sold all of three out of 500, we ordered. And, you can make a wish list and send it directly to Santa.
[ Suddenly we cut to the sky and see Santa is in distress as his sleigh is being chased by an airplane with confederate flags. ]
Godzilla Brown - Oh no Moopey, it's the Redneck Baron, Mance Warner, and he's trying to stop Santa from delivering Empireshop.com Christmas presents.
[ Moopey runs to his dog house and it changes into a fighter jet. He takes off and is on the chase. ]
The Redneck Baron - I'm not racist, this is my heritage, hahahaha.
Santa Claus - I can't outrace him, I'm too weighed down by Empireshop.com merch, help, he's already got two of my reindeer.
Moopey - It's time to go to the Danger Zone.
[ Moopey flies his dog house fighter jet and launches a missile blowing up the Redneck Baron. ]
Santa Claus - HohoHo Moopey, just for that here’s a special new shirt for you and all the Empire fans.
Moopey - Wow, it's Godzilla, me and Alexander Stone looking similar to copy righted characters of the peanuts comics and shows.
[ Suddenly, a little bird flies on his shoulder, that looks similar to Alexander Stone. ]
StoneStock - Oh man, you guys made me Woodstock? Weird choice but cool.
Santa Claus - Empireshop.com, for all your Empire merch needs, Ho Ho Ho.
[ Amber Nova looks up to the sky. ]
“The Perfect 10” Amber Nova - Why does he keep calling for me? It's $40 and a cigarette if you want this Fatman.
Announcer - Empireshop.com, getting you the presents you need in time for the holidays.
[ The videotron comes on as it shows Felix Escobar sitting behind a desk with the his two monstrous minions Mil Muertes and Blood Hunter bookending him on either side. ]
“The Raven” Felix Escobar – Godzilla and Maverick, the two little Chihuahuas nipping at our heels. Please do not take this the wrong way. We think highly of both of you. You are, as they say; two very entertaining creatures. The masses love you both. They buy your tee-shirts. They buy your booze. They sing your silly little songs. They laugh at all your cute little skits. You my friends are marketing geniuses. But what you lack is the in-ring skills to back it up. You will always be living in the shadow of the great Tank Edge. The Ring General. The Arizona Silverback. Kong Arias. So many names, but he always comes home. Home to the Empire. Home to the one place that he always felt safe. But things are about to change little ones. Tonight, my boys are going to take you off the chess board. Tonight, all that will be left is the King and soon; very soon; the Cartel will burn the Empire along with Tank Edge to the ground!!!
[ The cameras cut to static, and then comes back on as it shows a ultra-violent Death match between Tank and Redentor where Tank lost the Mexican World title to him!!! ]
“The Raven” Felix Escobar – The end is coming Tank. There is no running from your past.
[ The show swings back to the announcers desk as we see Phillip and Caristico sitting there. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Strong words from Felix Escobar mainly directed at Tank Edge himself.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Tank has a long-storied history in Mexico especially with Redentor. They were in some gruesome Death Matches and at the end Tank lost his Mexican World title to Redentor before coming back to the United States. I have to wonder why they showed that clip of Tank losing his Mexican World title? Is there something even more sinister in the background that even Tank doesn’t know about?
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Great question. It’s not like Felix or the Cartel have been hiding in the shadows waiting to attack Tank. They have done everything up front. No secrets. They have also been very vocal about their objectives. They want to remove Tank from the chess board and destroy the Empire, plain and simple. Can Tank stop them, that’s the bigger question? Folks, it’s time for tonight’s main event as we will see Mil Muertes and Blood Hunter in action as they take on Godzilla Sanchez and Maverick Edge!!! Let’s go back to the ring one last time and rejoin Harvey Weinstein!!! Harvey, take it away buddy.
The Main Event of the Evening
Mil Muertes and Blood Hunter vs Godzilla and Maverick
The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The following tag team match is set for one fall with a twenty-minute time limit!!! Making their way to the ring weighing in at a combined weight of 350 lbs, this is Godzilla Sanchez and Maverick Edge!!!
[ The crowd goes wild as “The Hart Foundation’s Theme” plays and Godzilla Sanchez walks out dressed like Bret Hart with his World Six-man Tag Team title around his waist. His tag team partner Maverick Edge walks out dressed like Brian Pillman with his World Six-man Tag Team title slung over his shoulder. Together, they stands at the top of the ramp as Godzilla sprays a mist in the air. Godzilla elaborately stomps to the ring letting out a Kaiju roar and they make their way down to the ring. Godzilla climbs on the apron and goes to the top rope, taking off his Bret Hart mask, blowing more mist and then does a monster stomp into the ring. Maverick climbs into the ring and stands dead center raises his hand showing a lazy thumbs up as he too removes his Brian Pillman mask. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – The fans here in Washington love the Hart Foundation!!! We are only about a hundred and twenty miles from the Canadian border. That’s about three hours’ drive from here. But Bret Hart himself is from Calgary which is about a thirteen-hour drive north.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – These kids love to give the people what they want. Last week on Afterburn it was the nWo and tonight it’s the Hart Foundation!!! I can’t imagine what could be next.
The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – And their opponents. Making their way to the ring weighing in at a combined weight of 531 lbs, Mil Muertes and Blood Hunter... the Cartel!!!
[ The sold-out crowd boos as “I came to Collect” by CFO$ rocks the arena and Felix Escobar escorts the two massive men on stage. Felix motions toward the ring and they storm down to the ring and climb in glaring across the ring at their much smaller opponents. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Godzilla and Maverick are giving up one hundred and eighty pounds to Mil Muertes and Blood Hunter tonight. That in itself is a whole nother person. I have no idea how these guys are going to overcome that difference.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Talk about a huge mountain to climb tonight in the form of the six-foot five Blood Hunter and the six-foot one Mil Muertes!!! It’s going to take everything they have to chop these two guys down to size!!!
[ Maverick and Mil Muertes starts the match off as the referee calls for the bell. Mil Muertes overpowers Maverick and locks him in a chokehold. Maverick is desperately tries to break the hold. Maverick inches his way towards the ropes and grabs them. Mil Muertes hits a brain buster on Maverick. Mil Muertes hits a bulldog on Maverick. Mil Muertes hits an atomic drop on Maverick. Mil Muertes tags out to Blood Hunter. Blood Hunter locks Maverick in a sleeperhold. Maverick inches his way towards the ropes and grabs them.

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Even though Mil Muertes powered out, Godzilla needs to keep him on the mat. Keep pouring it on kid!!!
[ Godzilla runs into the ropes, but Mil Muertes spring from his knees and destroys Godzilla with a clothesline that sends Godzilla tumbling out of the ring.

[ Godzilla gets up and makes his way over to Ken Peterson and starts to slap him around trying to wake him up. Suddenly from behind a masked Luchador slides into the ring with a steel chair and blasts Godzilla with it just as he turns around!!! ]

[ The masked luchador stops at the top of the stairs right outside the concession area. He reaches up and slowly removes his mask to reveal that it’s Pezzer!!! ]

[ Pezzer laughs maniacally as he rips off his luchador shirt revealing a “Bullet Club 4 Life” shirt underneath. He raises both hands and flips both Tank and Stone off as the show goes off the air. ]
Epilogue
[ The morning after Adrenaline the owner of the Empire chose to sleep in. The show ran extra-long last night and after a post-show meeting being updated on the numerous injuries, he finally got to bed around 2am. A little after 10am, his front door to his house explodes open and it startles him awake. He puts his bathrobe on and rushes down to the living area where he sees his wife sitting at the dining room table crying. Dozens of DEA agents are ram-sacking his home while an older man approaches him. ]
DEA Agent – Are you the owner of the World Wrestling Empire?
[ Mark is still half asleep and this seems like a bad dream. ]
The owner of the World Wrestling Empire – I am. What’s going on here? Why have you busted into my house?
[ The DEA agent waves a piece of paper in his face. ]
DEA Agent – We have a search warrant.
The owner of the World Wrestling Empire – Search warrant? This is crazy. For what?
DEA Agent – We believe that you are embezzling money alongside the Escobar Cartel.
[ Mark looks confused. ]
The owner of the World Wrestling Empire – The Cartel? Are you nuts?
DEA Agent – Please turn around and put your hands behind your back.
[ Mark turns around and looks at his wife as the DEA Agent cuffs him. ]
The owner of the World Wrestling Empire – Get ahold of our lawyer. Tell him everything you know.
DEA Agent - You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to an attorney. If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be provided for you. Do you understand the rights I have just read to you? With these rights in mind, do you wish to speak to me?
The owner of the World Wrestling Empire – I would rather wait if you don’t mind.
[ As the search through Mark’s house continues, the DEA agent puts Mark in the cop car and takes him down to the station for further questioning. ]
To be continued...
Live from the sold-out Tacoma Dome in Tacoma, Washington
Monday Night December 13th, 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 hitting “the Stonebreaker”, the Lynch Mob hitting “the Lynching”, Su Yim locking on “the Purge”!!! The crowd explodes as we see Godzilla hitting the Goodbye Tokyo, Chandler Hopkins turning someone inside out with the Wrangler and Amber Nova hitting the Nova Driver!!! The arena is rocking as "Warriors" by Imagine Dragons blasts across the arena in unison with the pyrotechnics that lights up the place up. The entire arena erupts in a chorus of cheers as the videotron pans around the arena and we can see dozens of fans holding up their hand made banners, “Godzilla is God”, “Tank is the G.O.A.T.” “Millie is my Queen” and “Pezzer is an Ass-hat”. 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 – Good evening, everyone. Phillip, what a massive three-night event the Empire just wrapped up first starting with Thanksgiving Afterburn, then going into Ladies’ Night Out and finishing strong with High Stakes. The Empire couldn’t have ended 2021 on a better note!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – No they could not. Our thanks to all the members of the staff that brought to us a great year of action and we hope that you will all stay with us as we head into 2022. I know that the staff have huge plans for the Empire including the 2022 Emperor’s Crown Tournament and the tournament to crown the brand-new World Cruiserweight champion. Both tournaments are slated to kick off in January of 2022.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – That’s are going to be some fantastic tournaments, but there’s more. The staff has locked down event centers around the world. Every Adrenaline, Afterburn and all the pay per view events will be held outside the United States and it al kicks off with Night one of Leap of Faith live from the Tokyo Dome in Japan.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Incredible news. We will not be broadcasting from the United States until we return home to Madison Square Garden on January 1st of 2023 for our New Beginning pay per view event!!! That’s over one hundred shows live from around the globe. Nobody does it like the Empire does.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – I hope you got your passport ready. It’s one of the longest road trips that I have ever been on. COVID be damned.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – That’s right. But let’s digress for a few minutes and talk about the fall-out from Thanksgiving Afterburn where we witnessed Go-D defend his World title against Prophet. In that match, Go-D retained, but he also took the Book of Prophecy from Prophet and well, let’s just say that Prophet has not been the same ever since.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – After Thanksgiving he went dark, and I don’t mean in an evil way. He disappeared from the scene only to show up on Afterburn Thursday night in a drunken stooper stumbling down to the ring during the Zealots match only to throw up all over the front row of fans. It appears that he is taking the loss of his book very hard.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – That’s an understatement. Earlier today our cameras were at a Superstar Meet-and-greet session with the superstars of the Empire and well, let’s just say that things went a little sideways when Prophet showed up. Let’s watch.
[ The videotron comes on showing a Superstar Meet-and-greet session inside the arena hours before the show starts. Some of the biggest names in the Empire including Travis Blake, Aoife Valkyrie, Massive Mike, Chandler Hopkins, Solo Darling and many, many more. Things are going very well, and a great number of fans are leaving satisfied spending time with their favorite stars, up until the point where Prophet stumbles into the hall stone cold drunk, with two beer cups in his hands. He pushes his way through the sea of fans, spilling his beers all over them. As he gets closer to the front of the crowd he sees Go-D sitting at a table next to Conner Edge. The World title propped on the table next to the Book of Prophecy that once belonged to him. ]
“The Chosen One” “The Modern-Day Messiah” Prophet – Dat’s mine!!! Dat’s my… my… book!!!
[ He slurs his words almost incomprehensible and staggers over to Go-D. He reaches down, still holding his cups of beers and tries to finagle picking his book up but just spills his beers all over the table. Conner and Go-D shoot out of their chairs trying to avoid the beer from getting on their clothes. ]
The World Heavyweight Champion Go-D – What the fuck is wrong with you?
“The Cowboy from Hell” Conner Edge – I’m going to break your friggen neck!!
“The Chosen One” “The Modern-Day Messiah” Prophet – I wanna my book back!!!
[ Go-D snatches his world title and the book off the table before they get wet as Prophet continues to lean forward dumping the remaining contents of his beer cups all over the table. This interaction starts to draw the ire from the crowd as many parents are ushering away their underage kids not wanting them to see this. Shane McMahon, just a few tales to the left of the incident sees what’s going on and rushes over. ]
The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – Prophet, what are you doing?
[ Prophet turns to Shane and tries to explain himself and his bad breath is enough to knock Shane out. ]
“The Chosen One” “The Modern-Day Messiah” Prophet – He took my book and I weally want it back. Give me my book!!!
[ Prophet starts to climb over the table at Go-D, but with the beer all over the table he cannot get his footing and looks like a fish out of water as his legs go one way and his arms go another as he splays himself all over the table. ]
The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – You’re embarrassing yourself. Here, let me help you.
[ Prophet refuses Shane’s help as he swings wildly and pops Shane in the nose!!! Shane starts to bleed profusely, and he grabs a handkerchief to try and stem the blood flow. ]
The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – God damn-it!!! Security!!!
[ Four security guards rush over and try and subdue the drunken Prophet, but he manages to get away and rush through the crowd in a drunken stooper bowling people over as the madcap security guards give chase!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – As you can clearly see, the former World Champion is not in his right mind right now; but let’s try and stay focused on tonight’s matches and boy what a card we have for you folks that are tuning in from wherever you may be. In his second TV title defense we will see Alexander stone take on Mance Warner. Stone defeated DDP at high Stakes for the title and Mance dropped a brutal match against Conner Edge that saw Mance get branded right on his chest. Mance has since covered up that branding with a tattoo, but you can be sure that he hasn’t forgotten that match.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – I’m just glad to see that TV title being defended each and every show like it was meant to be. We have not seen this since Hopkins held the title. Let’s see if Stone can beat Hopkins run at eighty-four days.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – That would be an incredible run considering how many men he will have to go through to get there. In Women’s tag team action, we are going to see the two newcomers Jessie Elaban and Lia Rose in action as they take on Blue Nation.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Jessie and Lia had a real good showing at Ladies’ Night Out when they defeated Caged Heat. Tonight, it doesn’t get any easier as they go up against Blue Nation who is coming off a tough loss to Bloody Mary and Havok in that Triple Threat match for the Women’s World Tag Team titles at Ladies’ Night Out. They are looking to rebound in a big way and make an example of these two young women.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – In six-man tag team action, the New Regime look to get some payback for the sneak attack at High Stakes when the Bullet Club attacked them and filmed it for their enjoyment. This one could get ugly.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – The bullet Club are out to make a statement and they used the Zealots and the New Regime to do it. Don’t fool yourself for a second and think that the New Regime won’t be out for blood tonight. Oh, and the Zealots; you better have your head on a swivel because they haven’t forgotten about you guys either.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Another big match is Massive Mike taking on the former TV champion DDP. Page lost his TV title to Alexander Stone at High Stakes and Massive Mike overcame Legacy in a handicap match to prevail at the pay per view. Tonight, we see if Massive Mike can hang with the Empire’s very best or if he’s just a flash in the pan as they say.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – I think that this guy is the real deal. He beat two former World Champions and he did it in convincing fashion. Not to mention that they now have to work for him so this might be interesting.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – November sure didn’t go the way Legacy had hoped, but for the next two men we are going to see it sure has been a pretty good month as Chandler Hopkins takes on Mitch Fierce.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Hopkins defeated Jake Owens at the pay per view while Mitch beat the entirety of the Million Dollar Dream Team to take Tony Tran’s $100,000!!! A win tonight might propel either man into the top five and get within striking distance of the World title.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – All that and it leads to the main event where we will see Godzilla and Maverick take on Mil Muertes and Blood Hunter in tag team action. Thursday night, Godzilla laid down the challenge and the Cartel took the bait. I have to ask, was this a very smart choice by Godzilla going into this match against the Cartel who have a one-hundred-and-eighty-pound weight advantage.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Think about it. That’s like wrestling three men. Godzilla won’t back down from anyone, but this match might be a little more than either of them overcome.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, it’s time for the opening match of the night and we have women’s division action as Malia Hosaka takes on Kiera Hogan!!! Both women are coming off of tough losses at Ladies’ Night Out and are looking to rebound tonight and set their ships straight. Let’s get to the ring as Harvey is ready for the opening introductions!!!
In the opening match of the Evening
Kiera Hogan vs Malia Hosaka
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The following match is set for one fall with a twenty-minute time limit!!! Making her way to the ring weighing in at 114 lbs., this is… Kiera Hogan!!!
[ The crowd gives her a mixed reaction over her newfound attitude as “Love, Fury, Passion, Energy” plays as Kiera Hogan walks down to the ring and climbs in, posing on the second turnbuckle ignoring all the haters. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Kiera lost a tough match to Millie McKenzie at ladies’ Night Out where the Women’s World title was on the line. In doing so, Kiera now cannot challenge Millie for the World title as long as Millie holds it.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – That was a stinging loss for Kiera. She’s worked so hard to get to that point only to be beaten by someone that she considered her best friend. What I will also so though is that we have seen a little bit of an attitude change from Kiera in the past few weeks. She’s starting to show her meaner and more vindictive side of her.
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – and her opponent. Making her way to the ring weighing in at 130 lbs., this is… Malia Hosaka!!!
[ The crowd gives a mixed reaction tonight as “Head like a hole” by Nine Inch Nails plays, but they are dumbfounded as Malia Hosaka never comes out. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, I am getting word that there has been some sort of altercation backstage. Let’s watch and see what’s going on. ]
[ The videotron comes on and we see Malia Hosaka on the floor screaming in pain as EMT’s try and treat her. Gail Kim is overseeing the situation and she notices the camera crew nearby. ]
The Women’s Division General manager Gail Kim – That’s enough!!! Shut it down!!!
[ You can hear Malia cry out in pain as the show cuts back to Phillip and Caristico at the announcers desk. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – It is pretty obvious that Malia was attacked by someone prior to her match tonight. I am pretty sure that once she gets treatment, she will tell Gail who that person was, and she will hand out the necessary discipline.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Call me crazy, but I have a feeling that the perpetrator is standing dead center in the ring right now!!!
[ Kiera smiles as she asks for a mic and Harvey hands her his. ]
“The Queen Slaya” Kiera Hogan – Poor, poor Malia. That really looks like it hurts. Well, sucks to be her. Referee start counting.
[ The referee has no choice but to start the count when suddenly “Make me smile” by Louise Dowd & Jason Tarver rocks the arena and Courtney Cox makes her way out on stage followed by Aoife Valkyrie in street clothes. ]
Aoife Valkyrie – Don’t do this!!! You got nothing to prove tonight!!!
[ Courtney ignores Aoife and marches down to the ring and climbs in and Aoife follows her but walks around the ring apron instead of climbing in as Kiera just smiles at them both. ]
“The Queen Slaya” Kiera Hogan – What do we have here? You sure you wanna do this Lois Lane? You sure you can handle the beating you’re about to get?
[ Courtney seems adamant as she motions Kiera to bring it. ]
Aoife Valkyrie – She doesn’t know what she’s doing!!! Just stop, alight? Don’t do this!!!
[ Kiera smiles at Aoife. ]
“The Queen Slaya” Kiera Hogan – Aoife, I don’t think Courtney is listening to you? What’s the matter? Trouble in the bedroom?
[ Kiera laughs as Aoife looks away remembering that kiss she shared with Courtney in the gym. Kiera points at Aoife. ]
“The Queen Slaya” Kiera Hogan – Get that bitch out of my ring.
[ The referee forces Aoife to the floor as Kiera hands the mic back to Harvey. The referee talks to Harvey and informs him that Courtney is going to wrestle the match in place of Malia. ]
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – Making her way to the ring first weighing in at 110 lbs, this is... Courtney Cox!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Courtney has had very little time to prepare for this match and she is walking in to face a buzz saw in Kiera Hogan. I don’t think this was a very smart move on her part.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Anger can make you do some pretty stupid things Phillip. She is way out of her league tonight and this match may be over pretty quickly. She’s still pretty green when it comes to in-ring action. She is just two and four.
[ The referee calls for the bell and they lock up. Kiera Hogan uses a Russian legsweep on Courtney Cox and then hits a standing moonsault onto her going for the pin as Todd Sinclair counts …1 …2 …and Courtney gets her shoulder up!!! Aoife pounds her hands on the ring apron trying to motivate Courtney. ]
“The Queen Slaya” Kiera Hogan – This is too easy. Show me something, anything!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Kiera’s taunting Courtney right now as she drags her to her feet by a handful of hair.

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway - Courtney seems a bit irritated right now as she is complaining to the referee about a slow count. This is not like her at all. Something is really bothering her.
[ Courtney goes for a bulldog, but Kiera Hogan throws her off and hits a monkey flip on Courtney Cox. Kiera Hogan drills a roundhouse kick into Courtney Cox. Kiera Hogan nails Courtney Cox with an Exploder suplex into the turnbuckles.

Kiera Hogan covers Courtney Cox, but there is no referee to make the count!!! ]
“The Queen Slaya” Kiera Hogan – Are you kidding me?!
[ Kiera screams as she stomps her feet on the mat pissed off. ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Kiera could have won this match on that series of moves if Courtney didn’t bump the referee, but I don’t think it requires a temper tantrum.
[ Kiera Hogan drags Courtney to her feet and attempts a spinning backbreaker, but Courtney Cox counters it with an elbowsmash to the side of her face. Courtney Cox goes for a basement dropkick to the knee, but Kiera Hogan jumps out of the way and nails an Exploder suplex into the turnbuckles on Courtney. Kiera Hogan goes for the pin as Todd Sinclair counts …1 …2 …and Courtney gets her shoulder up!!! Kiera laughs at Courtney as she slaps her on the back of her head. ]

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – A win is a win, but you can’t tell me that Courtney didn’t give Kiera the fight of her life. Courtney should be proud of her match tonight win or lose.
[ Aoife rolls into the ring to help her friend, watching the entire time as Kiera eyes her with an evil grin on her face. Kiera rolls out of the ring as Aoife tries to help Courtney to her feet, but Courtney shoves her away and she too leaves the ring alone leaving Aoife standing there wondering where their friendship is heading. ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Kiera may have gotten the win tonight, but it was not a convincing win as she had to pull out all the stops to put Courtney away. I cannot wait to see these two women go at it again down the road. Maybe we will see a different outcome.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, I am getting word that Conner Edge is standing by with our very own Maxwell Shaw. Let’s listen in to hear what he has to say after his big win over Mance Warner at the pay per view.
[ Maxwell Shaw stands with Conner Edge backstage; Conner is dressed in a fancy new leather vest and some nice-looking jeans with a brand-new Stetson cowboy hat on his head. He puts some dip in his mouth and is using an old beer bottle to sip. ]
Maxwell Shaw - Conner, you got the big win over Mance Warner at High Stakes, but he says you aren't done fighting each other.
“The Cowboy from Hell” Conner Edge - Hey, he wants another beating, well I guess I'll give it to him until it takes. You see he covered up my beautiful branding with a symbol of hate? Keep claiming it's history boy, we all know what it really means. Hopefully I can knock some sense into you next time.
Maxwell Shaw - You've recently joined up with Legacy at a time it desperately seems to be needing new blood.
“The Cowboy from Hell” Conner Edge - Look, Go-D isn't dumb, he like all of us saw the spiral the older guys are going into trying to keep up with the younger generation and before he needed a life preserver, he brought in the biggest hoss he could. This is a partnership of mutual respect and interest. I wasn't going anywhere staying Tank Edge's boy, now, watch what I can do when I’m allowed to fully be me and unleash myself.
Maxwell Shaw - I imagine you'll be looking to enter into a title picture soon.
“The Cowboy from Hell” Conner Edge - I got my eye on a couple belts, the TV title seems like it'd be a good proving ground.
Maxwell Shaw - Are you stepping up to be Alexander Stone's next open challenger?
“The Cowboy from Hell” Conner Edge - Patience, Maxwell, is a virtue. I'll let him weed through some of the lower ranks before I make my move. See I know he's running with my old crew and believe me; I know they are like an amoeba that gets in your brain and slowly eats away at it. He'll always be a tough boy, there’s no doubt about that, but I'm going to bide my time and when the moment is right, you better believe I'm going in and taking that belt.
Maxwell Shaw - Before you go, you recently were spotted talking to the tag champions, what was that about?
“The Cowboy from Hell” Conner Edge - It was about a turkey named friendship Max. Rasputin has been one of my best friends for years, we have a lot in common and very similar interests in the future. That's all I'm going to say for now.
Maxwell Shaw - Are you recruiting them for Legacy?
“The Cowboy from Hell” Conner Edge - You know, Rome didn't create a great empire by recruiting and having meetings, they did it by killing those who opposed them.
[ Conner leaves it at that and walks away as the show cuts back to the broadcast table. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – The one thing that this kid isn’t, is shy. He speaks his mind and he means every word of it. If he says he’s gunning for a title you better be damned well prepared for a fight.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – He mentioned the TV title specifically. I wonder if Stone heard that and what his take on it is going to be. What a match that would be.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, our next match pits the new TV champion Alexander Stone taking on Mance Warner. It was just one week ago at the pay per view that Stone defeated DDP in a tough match that gave Page his first loss since returning to the Empire. Thursday night on Afterburn, Stone defeated Pedro Supremo in his first title defense.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – This match should be good. Pedro competed against Stone last week and was way out of his weight class. Tonight, this will be a much more even match-up as both men are well within the heavyweight class. Mance is much more of a brawler while Stone leans more toward being a mat technician. Don’t get me wrong, he can brawl with the best of them too if need be.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Let’s see how Mance fairs in his first title match here in the Empire. Harvey, take it away buddy.
In an Open TV title Challenge
Alexander Stone © vs Mance Warner
The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The following match is set for one fall with a twenty-minute time limit and it is for the WWE TV title. Making his way to the ring, weighing in at 215 lbs., this is… “The Southern Psychopath” Mance Warner!!!
[ The sold-out crowd explodes to their feet booing as Mance Warner storms out on stage with that deadly riding crop in hand. He marches down to the ring to the music of “Simple Man” by Lynyrd Skynyrd before climbing in and raising the riding crop high in the air overhead to the booing of the fans. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Even though he got his ass whooped by Conner Edge at High Stakes, he still seems pretty full of himself coming into this match. Let’s listen in to what he had to say earlier.
[ The videotron comes on as we see Mance pacing around backstage. The new “Rebel Flag” tattoo stamped on his chest trying to cover up the branding that Conner gave him just a week ago. ]
“The Southern Psychopath” Mance Warner – Alexander Stone. The man who thinks he runs the place. Why is that, Alex? Is that because the ownership of the Empire kissed your ass to sign you up last year? Was it because the owner promised you the main event? Did he promise you the gold ring? The pay per view spotlight. I look back at the heavyweight tournament last year and I gotta tell you, it seems you were spoon fed guys that would assure you a trip to the finals. And they talk about Go-D being catered to. It seems someone else was blowing the boss too. Tonight, your reign as the top guy in the Empire comes crashing down. You call yourself “Pure Gold”, well I think you’re “Pure Bullshit”. Tonight, I take your TV title and I’m going to give you a lashing you’ll never forget!!!
[ Mance waves his riding crop in the air at the camera as the show swings back to the announce team. ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Strong words by the challenger, but it’s going to take more than words to defeat Alexander Stone. Only two men have managed to pin his shoulders to the mat in the nearly one year since the Empire reopened. I am hard pressed to believe that Mance will be the third.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – We will soon find out, but here comes the champion!!!
The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – And his opponent, making his way to the ring weighing in at 251 lbs.; he is the reigning and defending World Wrestling Empire Television Champion; this is… “Pure Gold” Alexander Stone!!
[ “Hyperpower” by Nine Inch Nails blares across the arena as Alexander Stone walks out on stage wearing his World Six-man Tag Team title belt around his waist and his brand-new TV title slung over his shoulder. Red, white and blue pyro explodes all around him as he marches down to the ring as fans explode to their feet cheering him on. The sold-out arena is deafening as he climbs into the ring, takes off his jacket and sunglasses off and tosses them to the floor. He mounts the middle turnbuckle and shows off his two title belts, proud of his achievements this year!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – The champion looks to be in great shape tonight even after that brutal attack this past Thursday night by Blood hunter and Mil Muertes that left him laying in the ring. Let’s listen in to hear what the champion has to say about that attack and much more.
[ The videotron comes on as we see the WWE TV Champion Alexander Stone wearing his white wrestling pants with the stars and stripes on it. He’s got on his red leather jacket with his dark sunglasses on to match. His World Six-man title belt around his waist and his new TV title slung over his right shoulder. ]
The WWE TV champion and World Six-man Tag Team Champion “Pure Gold” Alexander Stone – So, I need to get shit off my chest, and I don’t have a ton of time, so I’ll get right to the point. Let’s start with DDP. Man, you were a friggen legend back in the day. And as much as I enjoyed our match at High Stakes, you need to come to the realization that all this Legacy shit, it aint doing much for your career. You were a great champ, but when things went sideways in our match, where were your boys? Where were Crazy man and Messiah? Where was Go-D? How about Shane? Let me tell you where they were. They were in the back sucking up to your replacement Conner Edge. That’s right Page. They saw the next big thing coming and Go-D and Shane left you high and dry. It’s time for you to open your eyes.
[ Stone adjusts the weight of the TV title on his shoulder. ]
The WWE TV champion and World Six-man Tag Team Champion “Pure Gold” Alexander Stone – Felix Escobar. There’s no need for you to introduce yourself to me because you see I know a fucking gutter rat when I see one and you’re the lowest level of gutter rat. At least when I ran the Gold Standard I marched out with my boys and I led by example. I didn’t hang back on the stage like some fucking pussy while my hired hands did the dirty work for me. Felix, you got something on your mind, step up and say it to my face. Don’t send your three hundred pound bitches because I‘m just going to have to hut them.
[ Stone takes off his sunglasses and brushes back his blonde hair from his eyes. ]
The WWE TV champion and World Six-man Tag Team Champion “Pure Gold” Alexander Stone – That leaves just you Mance. The so-called Southern Psychopath. Great nickname. It’s just too damn bad that you don’t live up to it. Let’s be honest. You threaten guys by telling them you’re going to feed them to your gators? Who does that? This is wrestling, not another “Jackass” movie. Mance, you can talk all the shit you want about how you’re finally getting a title shot, but I’ll be blunt with you. The only reason you’re getting a TV title shot is because you’re ranked next to last in the division and I’m working my way up the ladder, unlike you who’s floating at the bottom. Tonight, will end no different than High Stakes did for you. With me standing over you and you looking up at the lights!!!
[ The show cuts back to the announcers desk. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Stone covered a ton of ground there and as always; he is not short on words. Let’s talk first about DDP. Is Stone right when he says that Legacy is moving on without Page?
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – I think they are. Conner is younger and hungrier than Page is. Not to mention that the guy comes from incredible genetic stock. Sky’s the limit for this kid, and smart thinking on Go-D’s part for looking ahead and planning for Legacy’s future.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What about Felix Escobar? What kind of game is Felix playing at, do you think?
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – I have known of the Escobar family for a long time. They are playing the long game right now. We are all like pieces on the chess board and they are the chess masters manipulating every one of us. I’m not sure yet what Felix’s ultimate plan is, but you can be sure that at the end of the day he will want gold around his waist.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Then there is Mance Warner. In a roundabout way he called Mance a bottom feeder and that the only reason he’s getting a title shot tonight is that Stone is working from the bottom up.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Stone said that to get under Mance’s skin. Mance is a very talented wrestler. Does he have the skills to beat Stone, time will tell. It’s going to be one hell of a mountain to climb I can tell you that. But I always go back to that one night in Japan when Buster Douglas knocked out Mike Tyson. It only takes one punch to get the job done. Stone might be the heavy favorite, but he has to be leery of this kids’ ability to take him out with that one single shot.
[ The referee holds the TV title up in the air for all to see and then hands it off to the ring attendant. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Here we go. Two big bulls are about to lock up!!!
[ They lock go to up and Mance Warner fakes the move and drives a headbutt into Alexander Stone. Stone is stunned as Mance sends Stone into the turnbuckle. Mance charges in with a big clothesline, but Stone lifts his leg and pops Mance in the face. Stone attempts a Discus lariat, but Mance ducks out of the way and drives a kneelift into Stone. Mance hits Stone. Stone chops Mance. Stone hits Mance. Stone punches Mance. Mance chops Stone. Mance comes off the ropes going for a high knee, but Stone ducks out of the way and goes for a DDT, but Mance counters it with an inverted atomic drop. Mance drives a double knife edge chop into Stone. Mance slams a back fist onto Stone. Mance throws Alexander Stone out of the ring and then rolls out under the bottom rope after him. Mance slams Stone into the ring post. Mance Warner nails Alexander Stone with a backbreaker. Mance Warner throws Alexander Stone into the guardrail. Mance Warner rolls Stone back into the ring. ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Right from the opening bell the Southern Psychopath has been taking it right at Stone even taking him to the outside where he loves to beat down his opponents.
[ Mance goes for a belly-to-back suplex, but Stone counters it with a go-behind and nails a dropkick to the back of Mance’s knee taking him down to the mat. Stone puts Mance in a boot choke. Mance tries to escape the hold and finally grabs the ropes. Stone runs into the ropes, but Mance hits Stone with a standing drop kick. Mance hits a legdrop on Stone. Mance climbs to the top rope and goes for a diving headbutt, but Stone rolls out of the way and Mance crashes headfirst into the mat. Stone tries an arm grapevine submission, but Mance blocks it and whips Stone into the ropes, but Stone reverses it and goes for a dropkick to the knee, but Mance leaps out of the way. Mance whips Stone into the ropes and nails a body slam on Stone. Mance tries a football tackle, but Stone counters it with a punt kick to the head. Stone hits a half nelson backbreaker on Mance. Stone goes for a back elbow, but Mance ducks out of the way and whips Stone into the turnbuckle. Mance runs shoulder-first into the corner, but Stone lifts his knee and slams Mance in the face. Stone hits a Cradle DDT on Mance Warner for the win as Joey Jiles counts …1 …2 …and Mance kicks out!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – That was the first bit of offense that Stone was able to pie together to get a pin attempt on Mance tonight. In-fact, that was the first pin attempt of the night by either man.
[ Stone drives a back elbow down on to Mance. Stone picks Mance up and goes for a Death Valley Driver, but
Mance counters with a swinging DDT!!! Stone slumps in the corner as Mance charges in when from out of nowhere Conner Edge explodes into the ring and decimates Mance with a spear!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – My God where did Conner come from?! He just wiped out Mance!!!
[ Joey Jiles immediately calls for the bell as he throws this match out!!! ]
Time of match: 0:06:26
The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The winner of this match by disqualification, Mance Warner!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Mance may have won the match thanks to Conner Edge, but Stone still walks out the TV champion and rightfully so in my opinion.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – We were seeing a very good match between these two men tonight, but the rage inside Conner fueled him to come out to the ring and attack Mance.
[ Referee’s flood the ring as they try and pry Conner off of Mance. A few solid forearm shots later and Conner is back on his feet. Stone marches right over to him grabbing him the arm and spinning him around to look him dead in the eye. ]
The WWE TV champion and World Six-man Tag Team Champion “Pure Gold” Alexander Stone – What the fuck is wrong with you?
[ Conner, in no mood to hear Stone’s shit shoves him in the chest. ]
“The Cowboy from Hell” Conner Edge - Get the fuck out of my face!!!
[ Stone laughs at him and then gets right back in Conners face… ]
The WWE TV champion and World Six-man Tag Team Champion “Pure Gold” Alexander Stone – Don’t hunt what you can’t fucking kill!!!
[ The two men go toe to toe as now the referee’s turn their attention back to Stone and Conner now trying to hold the two massive men apart. The fans go nuts hoping for an impromptu match when from the back the World Heavyweight Go-D rushes down the ramp closely followed by “The Ring General” Tank Edge. They both climb into the ring to join the fray with Tank trying to hold Stone back and Go-D trying to hold Conner back. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – The fans are blowing the roof off the arena right now as they are dying to see a confrontation between Go-D and Tank!!!
[ The mass of men in the ring culminates in the middle where Tank and Go-D back into each other!!! They each spin around and go nose to nose!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – This isn’t good!!! I thought they were out here to play peacemaker?!
The World Heavyweight Go-D – There you are. I thought you would never show your face.
“The Ring General” Tank Edge – I’m going to break your fucking face!!!
[ Tank lunges and tackles Go-D to the mat and all hell breaks lose all over again!!! More security floods the ring as now Stone and Conner are blasting each other!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway - Folks, as security tries to get control in the ring; let’s go to the back where our very own Maxwell Shaw is standing by with Blue Nation!!!
[ The show swings to the back where we see Charli Evans and Jessica Troy standing next to Maxwell Shaw. ]
Maxwell Shaw – Ladies, tough loss at Ladies’ Night Out where you were lost to Bloody Mary and Havok for the Women’s World Tag Team titles.
Charli Evans – Yeah, not our night. But Rome wasn’t built in a day and if anything, we learned a ton coming out of that match; and we know that this won’t be our last title shot. We are going to be around for a long time. There will be more opportunities down the road.
Maxwell Shaw – Tonight you face two women that are very new to the Empire, but they did get the victory over Caged Heat at the pay per view in Jessie Elaban and Lia Rose.
Jessica Troy – They are two very talented women and I believe that Jessie has done a great job teaching Lia what it takes to be successful in this business. I just don’t think that they have what it takes to beat us tonight.
[ The interview is interrupted by the new Women’s World Tag Team Champions Bloody Mary and Havok who can be seen each holding their tag team titles slung over their shoulders. ]
Maxwell Shaw – Ladies, first off congratulations on your win at the pay per view.
The Women’s World Tag Team Champions Bloody Mary – Thank you Maxwell. We figured that since it’s been a few weeks since the Empire has seen their champions on television, we would take the time right now to show off our beautiful belts.
Charli Evans – You do realize that this is our TV time, right? You guys should have slotted your own time.
[ Havok looks pissed. ]
The Women’s World Tag Team Champions Havok – Listen, losers; if we want TV time, we’re going to take it. These belts give us the right to do whatever we damn well please.
Jessica Troy – It seems someone’s ego barely fit through the door today. Listen, if it’s a fight you’re looking for; our dance card for Afterburn is wide open. And while you’re at it, why don’t you grow a set and put those titles on the line.
The Women’s World Tag Team Champions Bloody Mary – Maybe you haven’t noticed, but she’s a woman!!
Jessica Troy – Could have fooled me.
[ Havok is ready to beat Jessica down for calling her a man when Gail Kim walks onto the set. ]
The Women’s Division General Manager Gail Kim – That’s enough!!! Calm down all of you. We’re not doing this right now. If it’s a fight the four of you want then you can have it. This week on Afterburn in a non-title match.
[ Bloody Mary and Havok laugh at Blue Nation. ]
The Women’s World Tag Team Champions Bloody Mary – Non-title bitches, hahaha!!!
The Women’s Division General Manager Gail Kim – But if Blue Nation wins, they get a title shot at Leap of Faith!!!
[ Charli gets right up in Bloody Mary’s face. ]
Charli Evans – Warm those belts up cause come Leap of Faith they are coming home with us!!!
[ Blue Nation storms off as the videotron cuts to the office of Shane McMahon sitting back in his chair with his head back and both nostrils packed with gauze to try and stop the bleeding from his busted nose. A knock can be heard at the door. ]
The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – Com’in!!
[ The door opens and Jake Owens walks in dressed in street clothes. ]
The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – Si’dow.
[ He expresses himself through the gauzed nose. ]
The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – I sa si’dow!!!
[ Owens finally gets the picture of what Shane’s telling him and he pulls out the chair and sits down. ]
The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – Yu unda’stan dat yu viodated de contrac, correct?
“The Death Dealer” Jake Owens – Listen, let me save you the lecture boss and tell you that I don’t shovel shit for nobody. So, do your worse.
The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – Yu heaby suspendad fo tirty days wit-out pay.
[ Owens smiles at Shane. ]
“The Death Dealer” Jake Owens – You fucked me right before the holidays. Such a Legacy dick.
The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – We will ca yu whe yu can rejoi da tou.
“The Death Dealer” Jake Owens – Kiss my ass.
The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – Kip it up an I will mak it two month!!!
[ Owens storms out of Shane’s office slamming the door shut behind him. He doesn’t get a few feet out the door and he sees Tony Tran standing there in an expensive suit and tie with sunglasses on. ]
“The Million Dollar Man” Tony Tran – Tough break. And right before Christmas too. What they say about those McMahon’s is true. They don’t have any heart.
[ Owens stops and glares at Tran. ]
“The Death Dealer” Jake Owens – What the fuck do you want?
“The Million Dollar Man” Tony Tran – Well, I am here to make you an offer that well, quite honestly; it seems like you can’t refuse.
“The Death Dealer” Jake Owens – What’s it pay?
[ Tran smiles at him. ]
“The Million Dollar Man” Tony Tran – Ah a man after my own heart. What’s the old saying “Every man has a price”? Come with me and we will discuss the terms of our agreement.
[ Tran and Owens walk off as the show cuts back to Phillip and Caristico at the announcers desk. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What the hell is Tran up to now? Wasn’t it bad enough that he lost his hundred grand to Mitch Fierce back at high Stakes?
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – If I had to guess, this has everything to do with Mitch Fierce. The big man better have eyes in the back of his head later tonight.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, it’s time for women’s tag team action as Blue Nation takes on Jessie Elaban and her tag team partner Lia Rose. Let’s get back to the ring for more in-ring action!!!
Jessie Elaban and Lia Rose vs Blue Nation
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The match is set for one fall with a twenty-minute time limit!!! Making their way to the ring first, weighing in at a combined weight of 280 lbs, Charli Evans and Jessica Troy; they are... Blue Nation!!!
[ The crowd goes wild as "Live in Dread, Girl" by Ghosts of Sadako rocks the arena and Charli walks out with her tag team partner Jessica Troy. They high five each other and rush the ring, diving under the bottom rope and sliding to the center of the ring where they pose for the fans!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Even though Jessica and Charli lost their first title match at Ladies Night Out they should very proud of what they have achieved so far in such a short amount of time.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Even with that loss they are still four and four and are ranked second for the Women’s World Tag Team titles. This will be another good test for these women tonight to see if they can stay ahead of the rest of the pack.
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – And their opponents. Making her way to the ring first, weighing in at weight of 130 lbs, this is... Jessie Elaban!!!
[ She walks to the ring, waving to the fans before doing Santana Garrett's twirl. She lowers her glasses to the crowd, being playful towards them as “The White Stripes” by Seven Nation Army plays throughout the arena. The crowd chants "Ohhhh Jessi Kamea!!!” at her, and she loves it as she climbs in the ring. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Jessie wrestled a great match against the former two-time tag team champions Caged Heat and even scored the pinfall victory with her Axe Kick to the back of Delta’s head.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – It was an incredible debut match for these two women, but it was spoiled by the unprovoked attack by SEX who came into the ring after the match and laid both women out.
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – And her tag team partner. Making her way to the ring weighing in at weight of 130 lbs, this is... Lia Rose!!!
[ As "Brass Bonanza" by Gil Imber plays, Lia skips out, then stopping to give hugs to fans. She then sits on the ropes pumping the crowd up. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – For being the rookie of the group Lia wrestled the match of her life, but it was spice who laid her out with her huge pink vibrator after the match was over. Let’s hear what they had to say earlier tonight.
[ The show cuts to a pre-taped recording… ]
Jessie Elaban - So after a win last week, SEX, for whatever reason, decided to attack us, then break my glasses. Well, little do they know that both of us have about 20 backup pairs. I’m wearing one now. But the fact is SEX, what you did makes you cowards!
[ Jessie sported extra thick bifocals, as those were her backup pair of glasses, while Lia had her usual small, square glasses, thought Jessie was trying to talk her into getting bifocals, so they’d match in all aspects of costume. Lia then tags in, slipping her glasses up. ]
Lia Rose - What are you, some sort of rejects from Mean Girls? You come out here, run your mouths, then break her glasses? SEX, this is not high school. Fact is, your little mean girls act doesn’t scare either one of us. We’ve all heard it before.
[ What most didn’t know is that while Jessie was a lesbian, Lia was bisexual. They had fallen for each other while wrestling an indy show in Texas. They’d been together for about a month and got more madly in love with each other as time went on. But in promos, Jessie wore headgear as well as braces and glasses. As she puts it on, she speaks. ]
Jessie Elaban - That’s exactly why I got into sports in school. To prove that nerds could do it too. It’s the same reason we’re both wrestlers. And whether it be SEX or Blue Nation, we’re here to prove to our fellow nerds that you can do anything you want, no matter what you look like. Remember that, fans. Lia and I have glasses and braces, yet we’re both very skilled wrestlers. And SEX you’re going to soon see what happens when you mess with nerds. But first, we’re gonna use Blue Nation to make an example of you. Count on it.
[ The show cuts back to the broadcast table. ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Since Ladies’ Night Out, SEX has yet to make a statement regarding their attack on Jessie and Lia. We were hoping to hear from them tonight, but so far nothing from the Rated R team.
[ Charli and Jessie start the match off as Charli runs into the ropes and hits Jessie with a kick. Charli hits an arm twist ropewalk chop on Jessie. Charli uses a Russian legsweep on Jessie. Charli tries a standing moonsault, but Jessie gets her knees up right into Charli’s breadbasket. Jessie goes for the cover as Yali Sapphire counts …1 …2 …and Charli kicks out!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Charli started the match off hot but it was that one ill-advised move that almost cost her dearly when she missed the standing moonsault.
[ Lia enters the ring to make it two-on-one. Jessie and Lia whip Charli into the ropes and they attempt to hit Charli with a double clothesline, but she counters it with a duck-down move and hits them with a double clothesline.

The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The winner of this match by pinfall, Lia Rose and Jessie Elaban!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Another big win for Jessie and Lia tonight as the defeated Blue Nation and move to two and oh in the tag team division.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – I have to think that the earlier confrontation with Bloody Mary and Havok took their eyes off the ball and they may have overlooked Lia and Jessie tonight.
[ “Tattooed Angel” rocks the arena as Spice and Katie Forbes walk out on stage in matching bra and panties. The men in the crowd are loving what they are seeing as they go nuts cheering for them!!! ]
“Cotton Candy” Katie Forbes – Oh stop, you’re embarrassing yourselves.
“A Slice of” Spice – That’s right boys. All your old ladies now know that while you’re fucking them doggie style at night, you’re dreaming about us!!!
[ All the women in the crowd boos them. ]
“Cotton Candy” Katie Forbes – You know it’s true. It’s a fact that every man dreams about being with women like us while they are fucking their wives.
“A Slice of” Spice – Think about it. What man wouldn’t want to have a piece of us, instead of women like those two bitches in the ring!!!
[ Spice points her footlong pink vibrator at Jessie and Lia. ]
“Cotton Candy” Katie Forbes – Wait, hold on sweetie; we can’t pick on them or they are very sensitive about being you know; the “L” word.
“A Slice of” Spice – The “L” word? Lazy? Lame? Losers?
“Cotton Candy” Katie Forbes – Lesbians, sweetie.
“A Slice of” Spice – Well fuck me sideways!!!
“Cotton Candy” Katie Forbes – I think we have that on DVD somewhere.
“A Slice of” Spice – That and a ton of other positions too!!!
“Cotton Candy” Katie Forbes – Ladies, before you ramble on about how special you think you are, you’re not. When it comes to breaking ground here in the Empire, we do things that’ll make the two of you queen’s blush.
“A Slice of” Spice – I’ve been in thirty-two hardcore porn movies!!! I’ve done everything from Bi, lesbian, straight, intergender and anal!!!
[ The fans cheer for that anal part!!! ]
“Cotton Candy” Katie Forbes – I love anal too!!! And cowgirl, and reverse cowgirl and...
“A Slice of” Spice – That’s enough, they get the point. Ladies, two wins don’t make you anything but a target; and if you think playing the lesbian angle is going to get you brownie points, you’re sadly mistaken. So, unless your finger banging her in the middle of that ring, you better get creative really quick because these fans are going to chew you up and spit you out.
“Cotton Candy” Katie Forbes – I don’t usually spit. I find that offensive to the guy I’m with.
“A Slice of” Spice – I’m a swallower too!!!
[ And they high five each other to the cheers of the crowd. ]
“A Slice of” Spice – Ladies, next week on Adrenaline; leave the glasses at home because we are going to school both your asses on the art of wrestling!!!
[ Katie lifts her shirt up bouncing her big tits up and down!!! ]
“Cotton Candy” Katie Forbes – I want my Jerry beads!!!
“A Slice of” Spice – Wrong show sweetie.
“Cotton Candy” Katie Forbes – Oh.
[ The camera cuts back to the announcers desk. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – I am really at a loss for words right now. Just when you think you have heard everything and anything that SEX can say, they come out here and talk about anal sex again!!!
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – I’m pretty sure that the FCC is going to fine the hell out of us after a segment like that. This is the problem with broadcasting live every night. You never know what is going to be said or what your going to see especially when SEX is around.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, let’s take a break and head to the back because I am hearing that Travis Blake is standing by with the Bullet Club and he has a few things on his mind. Let’s listen in.
[ The videotron comes on as it shows the United States Heavyweight Champion Travis Blake backstage with the Guerillas of Destiny by his side. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “The Face of the Empire” Travis Blake – Where oh where are the all-powerful New Regime? Boys, don’t tell me you lost your balls and you’re running scared. Don’t tell me that after one little sneak attack you boys are gonna take your ball and run back to Japan?
[ Travis laughs. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “The Face of the Empire” Travis Blake – You guys are pathetic. What, you two were supposed to be two of Tank’s finest students? The best Japan has to offer? You boys are pathetic. Me and my Guerillas punked your bitch asses out at High Stakes and you did nothing!!! Not a word from the two of you. Not that anyone could understand that broken English shit anyway. It’s like the two of you are talking with someone’s dick in your mouths.
[ They all get a good laugh. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “The Face of the Empire” Travis Blake – Oh and Zealots. Nothen from you two clowns either? You’re just going to let us bitch you two out too and you’re going to act like it meant nothing? Oh wait, you’re too busy keeping Prophet off the booze. The guy loses his stupid book and you think that it’s the end of the world or some shit. Suck it up boys. The Guerillas are coming for their tag titles and there’s nothing any of you can do to stop them.
[ Travis smooths out of beard. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “The Face of the Empire” Travis Blake – Then I heard whispers. Little subtle whispers in the back like scratches on the chalkboard. I get stopped on the way into the arena. Travis, have you heard the news? Mitch Fierce is talking mad shit about you. He’s the new number one contender to your US title. He’s calling you out. He wants your belt.
[ Travis looks dead serious into the camera. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “The Face of the Empire” Travis Blake – Mitch Fierce, you listen and you listen really good because I’m about to tell you a story that you’re not going to like to hear. You’re nothen but a flash in the pan. Just another guy that walked into MY Empire and got lucky enough to beat a bunch of nobody’s to pad his record. Yeah, that might get you the number one seed on paper, but it means nothen to me. Zero. Nadda. Zilch. You’re not shit. I know it, the Guerillas know it and all those marks that follow you on Facebook, Twitter or whatever stupid account you got know it. You’re just another big guy with less talent than Kahagas.
[ Travis slaps his US title belt. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “The Face of the Empire” Travis Blake – Take a good long look at this belt because the closest you’re ever going to get to it is when I’m on the shitter and you see it on the floor under the stall. Do yourself a favor Mitch and keep my name out of your mouth because if you ever speak my name again, I’m going to rip those words right out of your hole. Stick with the TV title old man. I would hate to see you embarrass yourself.
[ Travis points his finger guns right at the camera. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “The Face of the Empire” Travis Blake – Everyone’s got a bullet with their name on it Mitchie old boy. Don’t make me pull the trigger!!!
[ The Bullet Club walk off as the show cuts across the arena where we see Maxwell Shaw standing next to the former TV champion Diamond Dallas Page. ]
Maxwell Shaw – DDP, at High Stakes you not only lost your TV title to Alexander Stone, but you also lost your opportunity at a rematch.
Empire Hall of Famer Diamond Dallas Page – Yeah, shit didn’t go as planned. Stone’s one of the best and that’s why when I was the GM of the Empire, Mark and I went out and signed this kid. Except for a short stint on the injured list, he’s been one of the cornerstones of this company right along with Amber Nova.
Maxwell Shaw – Looking back at your match, what went wrong?
Empire Hall of Famer Diamond Dallas Page – What went wrong? You’re kidding right? What went wrong was the fact that he got the TV title shot. Listen, no excuses; he kicked my ass and he deserved to walk out as champion and I deserved to lose. It’s time to wipe the tears and move on.
Maxwell Shaw – Move on? Are you talking about possibly the United States title or maybe a match against Go-D for the World title?
[ Page smiles. ]
Empire Hall of Famer Diamond Dallas Page – Listen, at my age it’s all about titles. I aint got the time or the physical body to work my way up the rankings. If I’m going to go after belts, it’s gotta be now.
Maxwell Shaw – Right now you are ranked fourth in the World title hunt with Massive Mike right behind you at five. This is going to be another huge match for you where if you lose you could see yourself plummet down and maybe right out of contention.
Empire Hall of Famer Diamond Dallas Page – Ok, let’s pump the brakes on this kid Massive Mike for a second. The kid’s big and he wears a goofy fucking mask. But other than that, there’s no substance to him. One way or another, he’s going to get a taste of the Diamond Cutter just like everyone else.
[ Just then, the World Heavyweight Champion Go-D walks onto the set with Conner Edge right behind him. ]
The World Heavyweight Champion Go-D – We need to talk.
Empire Hall of Famer Diamond Dallas Page – You got something to say, just say it.
The World Heavyweight Champion Go-D – I meant alone.
[ Page looks over Go-D’s shoulder. ]
Empire Hall of Famer Diamond Dallas Page – Alone? Since when is that monkey on your shoulder part of Legacy?
[ Conner is sick and tired of the shit he’s been getting and makes a move to go after Page but Go-D holds him back. ]
The World Heavyweight Champion Go-D – Listen, he’s part of us now. He’s the future of Legacy. But what I have to say can’t be said around big ears here.
[ And Go-D nods at Maxwell who is listening to every word they say. ]
Empire Hall of Famer Diamond Dallas Page – Fine, let’s talk.
[ They walk off as the show cuts back to the broadcast table. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Tensions are running extremely high right now within Legacy. Go-d is making some decisions that are not sitting well with the rest of the group.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – When you think of Legacy you think about guys like Page, Tank, Pezzer, Crazy Man, Messiah and Go-D. I am still a little confused as to where Conner Edge fits into the bigger picture.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – I have no idea, but maybe that’s what he’s talking to DDP about. Laying it all out for him to get a better understanding. Folks, our next match is a six-man tag team match where we will see The New Regime and Kahagas take on the Bullet Club. After what Travis and his Bullet Club have done and said, this match is going to be a war!!! Let’s rejoin Harvey already in the ring!!!
The New Regime vs The Bullet Club
The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The following match is set for one fall with a twenty-minute time limit. Making their way to the ring being accompanied by Paul Heyman and weighing in at a combined weight of 614 lbs., Tanga Loa and Tama Tonga along with Travis Blake; they are... the Bullet Club!!!
[ The sold-out crowd goes nuts booing as “The Firing Squad” by No Name Tim rocks the arena as the two Samoan warrior’s walk down to the ring led by Travis Blake on point. The Guerillas climb into the ring and they each take a turnbuckle getting the crowd pumped up as Travis bounces on the middle rope showing off his United States title belt high over-head. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – The Bullet Club come into this match with a six and one record with their only defeat coming at the hands of the Three Best Friends on Thanksgiving Afterburn when they were defeated for their World Six-man Tag Team titles.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – It’s been an incredible run for Travis Blake and the Bullet Club as a whole. Now it seems that the Guerillas have set their sights on getting back the World Tag Team titles. Championships that they held for eighty-four days until losing them to the Chain Gang back at Eve of Destruction.
“Party in the Back” JoJo Rodriguez – And their opponents. Making their way to the ring weighing in at a combined weight of 685 lbs., they are the World Tag Team Champion Shinigami Shogun, Rasputin Ito and Kahagas; they are... the New Regime!!!

Ito and Shogun each mount a turnbuckle and shows off their tag team titles and Kahagas kneels in the center of the ring blowing red mist in the air!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – And here comes the Japanese superstars known as the New Regime!!! These three men are a force of nature as they have swept the globe and now reign as the World Tag Team Champions here in the Empire.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – As a trio’s team they are winless, but in tag team action they have yet to taste defeat increasing their record to six and oh when they defeated Legacy back at Thanksgiving Afterburn to retain their titles.

[ Tanga Loa leaps over the top rope and onto Kahagas with a car crash cross body. Paul Heyman comes from behind, but Kahagas nails Paul Heyman with a palm thrust.

Shogun charges into that corner, but Tanga Loa lifts his leg and pops Shogun in the face.

[ Travis uses a bulldog on Shogun. Travis hits a fallaway slam on Shogun. Travis nails Shogun with a tiger driver and rolls him up for the win as Todd Sinclair counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Shogun kicks out!!! ]

[ Tanga Loa tags himself in and tries for a clothesline, but Shogun counters it with a crucifix pin attempt as Todd Sinclair counts ...1 ...2 ...and Tanga gets his shoulder up!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Incredible counter by Shogun to avoid that clothesline and get that pin attempt.
[ Shogun tags out to Kahagas who hits an Exploder suplex into the turnbuckles on Tanga Loa. Kahagas nails a jumping thrust kick into Tanga Loa.

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What a back-and-forth match by these two very evenly matched teams right now. If there was one week spot, I would have to say it’s Kahagas, but even he is showing signs of brilliance tonight.
[ Kahagas goes for a standing dropkick, but Tama Tonga catches him and side slams him to the mat and goes for the pin and uses the ropes for leverage as Todd Sinclair counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and the referee sees it and waves off the count as he gives Tama shit about cheating!!! ]

The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The winner of this match by pinfall, the Bullet Club!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Another win by the Bullet Club tonight as they expose Kahagas and take him out for the win. Tough loss for the World Tag Team Champions!!!
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – I would hate to think that Kahagas is the weakest link in the New Regime chain, but the Bullet club must have saw something when scouting these guys and new exactly who to go after.
[ The crowd pops as "Cathedral" by WCPM rocks the arena and the Bullet Club halts their celebration to look back up the rampway and see the Zealots coming right at them. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Maybe the Bullet Club is about to get paid back in kind for what they did to the Zealots at High Stakes!!!
[ The Zealots make it to the bottom of the rampway ready for a fight when “The Power of I and I” by Shadows Fall plays and the former World Heavyweight Champion Prophet stumbles on drunken legs with two beers in hand out on stage. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – He has turned into a huge embarrassment to himself and everything that he believed in. All of this over some damn book?
[ The Zealots peer back up the ramp and watch as Prophet stumbles down the ramp toward them spilling most of his beer along the way. The Bullet Club gets a good laugh at Prophets expense as he stops at the bottom of the ramp and looks up at Travis Blake who just leans against the ropes. ]
“The Chosen One” “The Modern-Day Messiah” Prophet – I will send you back... I will... I...
[ Prophet loses his train of thought and takes another swig of beer that mostly ends up all over his beard and chest. ]
“The Chosen One” “The Modern-Day Messiah” Prophet – To Hell with you!!!
[ Travis asks for a mic and Harvey hands him one. He taps the head of the mic to make sure it is live... thud, thud, thud and then points at Prophet. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “The Face of the Empire” Travis Blake – Oh how the mighty have fallen!!! Prophet, the man who was supposed to lead us out of the darkness and back into the light. Our savior!!! Our chosen one!!! Now all your good for is drinking all these people’s beer!!!
[ Prophet heard very little of what Travis said and comprehended even less, but he got the gist that it wasn’t good so he starts to climb the ring steps. The Zealots try and stop him, but he shoves their hands away and climbs up onto the ring apron. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “The Face of the Empire” Travis Blake – I don’t think you want any part of this!!!
[ Prophet gives Travis the middle finger and Travis smiles. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “The Face of the Empire” Travis Blake – Now that wasn’t very nice.
[ Travis drops the mic, grabs Prophet by his long greasy hair and flings him into the ring right on his back. Prophet grabs his lower back screaming in pain. Travis measures him up and nails him with the Weapon X (the Last Shot)!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – My God that didn’t end well!!!
[ The Zealots throw their hands in the air and walk back up the ramp leaving Prophet to his own demise. The show cuts to the back where we find Jessica McKay seemingly looking for something as Cassie Lee follows her confused. ]
Cassie Lee - What are we searching for?
Jessica McKay - We're not looking for anything, I just need to talk to someone.
Cassie Lee - Who?
[ Suddenly from out of a locker room walks Bret “The Hitman” Hart. He starts walking down the hall. ]
Jessica McKay - BRET!!!!
[ Bret turns around and they run up to him. ]
Bret “The Hitman” Hart - Ladies.
Jessica McKay - Bret, have you seen Godzilla Sanchez around?
Cassie Lee - Wait, who?
Bret “The Hitman” Hart - Funny you should ask.
[ Bret suddenly pulls off his wig and glasses and we see it's actually Godzilla in costume. ]
Cassie Lee - Ugh, idiot, why are you dressed like Bret Hart?
“The Heartbreak Kaiju” Godzilla Sanchez - It was going to be for an Empireshop.com commercial, but we’ve run into an issue.
[ Godzilla opens the door to the locker room, and we see Alexander Stone and Maverick standing in their underwear in an argument. ]
Maverick Edge - I called being Owen weeks ago.
The WWE TV champion and World Six-man Tag Team Champion “Pure Gold” Alexander Stone – You know that’s not the agreement we have. Godzilla said …1 …2 …3 …and I called Owen, I get to be Owen.
Maverick Edge - But your built like British Bulldog.
The WWE TV champion and World Six-man Tag Team Champion “Pure Gold” Alexander Stone – We have a British Bulldog.
[ He points to a corner and we see an English bulldog in the corner dressed in a Davey Boy Smith costume. ]
Maverick Edge - That is so cute.
The WWE TV champion and World Six-man Tag Team Champion “Pure Gold” Alexander Stone – Just be Brian Pillman, he was Flying Brian and you’re a pilot.
Maverick Edge - Ugh, that makes sense.
[ Godzilla closes the door. ]
“The Heartbreak Kaiju” Godzilla Sanchez - Well that was three hours of rehearsal time.
Jessica McKay - That's actually what I wanted to talk with you about.
“The Heartbreak Kaiju” Godzilla Sanchez - Those guys fighting over cosplay.
[ Jessica takes a deep breath as Cassie openly has a mocking laugh as Godzilla’s comment. He looks as Cassie annoyed. ]
Jessica McKay - No sweetie, I had an idea for merch for Empireshop.com.
“The Heartbreak Kaiju” Godzilla Sanchez - I'm always open to ideas.
[ She opens the jacket she's wearing, and we see she's wearing a Godzilla Sanchez bra and panties (Godzilla on one breast, Sanchez on the other and his face on the panties part) Godzilla and Cassie Lee's jaws drop. She takes Godzilla's hand and puts it on her breast. ]
Jessica McKay - Just feel the fabric they use, isn't it soft.
“The Heartbreak Kaiju” Godzilla Sanchez - Oh it's so very hard....I mean soft...well it's not soft, it’s long at least.
Cassie Lee - What is going on here? Jessica, have you lost your mind?
“The Heartbreak Kaiju” Godzilla Sanchez - It feels so good, so satisfying...I bet it'd be a big seller.
[ Jessica takes Godzilla's hand and kisses it. He's blushing pretty noticeably. ]
Jessica McKay - Maybe, we can go to dinner and talk about some other things I had in mind.
“The Heartbreak Kaiju” Godzilla Sanchez - Oh yeah, dinner sounds great, we can go right now.
Jessica McKay - Aren't you the main event tonight?
“The Heartbreak Kaiju” Godzilla Sanchez - Girl, you got no idea.
Cassie Lee - Am I in crazy town? Jessica, what did Kahagas mist do to your brain?
Jessica McKay - Call it a date then.
[ Cassie Lee looks incredulous and stomps away. ]
“The Heartbreak Kaiju” Godzilla Sanchez - Yes, yes, we shall.
[ Jessica kisses him on the cheek and walks away as Godzilla stands, covering his lower self with the Bret wig. Stone and Maverick come out of the dressing room in their Owen Hart and Brian Pillman costumes, they see the mean girls walking away and Godzilla stuck in a trance like stake. ]
The WWE TV champion and World Six-man Tag Team Champion “Pure Gold” Alexander Stone – What'd they want?
“The Heartbreak Kaiju” Godzilla Sanchez - Champs de fraises pour toujours.
[ Stone and Maverick look at each other and shrug as the show cuts back to the announcers desk. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What the hell is Jessica McKay up to with Godzilla?
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – I don’t think it’s true love Phillip. As we all saw earlier with SEX, this isn’t the Lifetime Movie Network.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Far from it. Folks, we have a huge match right around the corner as Diamond Dallas Page takes on the big fan favorite, Massive Mike. Let’s rejoin Harvey in the ring!!!
Massive Mike vs DDP
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 accompanied by Mike Thompson and Chris Simmons; he weighs in at 455 lbs.; this is Massive Mike!!!
[ The crowd roars to their feet as “Baby Got Back” by Sir Mix a lot explodes through the PA system and the biggest man on the Empire roster, Massive Mike; walks out from the back followed by Messiah and Crazy man dressed in jeans and wearing Massive Mike tee-shirts that are flying off the shelves at EMPIRESHOP.COM!!! The crowd begins their chant... ]
The sold-out crowd – Mike!!! Mike!!! Mike!!!
[ He stands at the top of the ramp with a microphone in hand. Surprisingly there are immense amounts of cheering in the crowd. ]
Massive Mike - It's an honor to be standing where I am today. You've seen all the hard work I've put into this federation during the past month. I'm sure it took many of you by surprise. I'm guessing some of you even thought I was going to lose my match against legacy and would have gone through some boot camp.
[ Massive Mike pauses for a moment. ]
Massive Mike - Let's be real though, there's no way I could lose to those who are beneath me. Besides I'm like a walking weapon between my stomach and ass!
[ Massive Mike grabs his gut and begins to shake it toward the audience. He chuckles a few times. ]
Massive Mike - But before we continue, I want to thank these two men standing behind me. Messiah and Crazy man. They pushed me far enough to recreate new versions of my finishers. Bare assed versions, and I must say they're a real game changer.
[ Massive Mike turns himself around, pulls his thong down and moons the audience for a few seconds. Both members of Legacy cringe. ]
Massive Mike - Take a good long look at the crack of life!
[ Massive Mike bellows out in laughter as he returns his thong into a normal position, no longer exposing himself to the crowd. ]
Massive Mike - Tonight I'm not too worried about my match with DDP. Because I have my sights on something else. Tonight, is the beginning of the future for the Empire. It's only a matter of time before I rise to the top, and anyone who stands in my way will get a taste of this crack!
[ Massive Mike drops his microphone and stomps down to the ring and climbs in as Crazy man and Messiah walk around the ringside area belittling the fans that are jeering them. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – The fans really love this guy. He’s coming off a huge win at High Stakes when he defeated the two men standing at ringside looking none too happy.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Massive Mike comes into this match with an excellent five and one record and is currently ranked fifth in the World title picture right behind the man that’s about to make his entrance.
The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – And his opponent. Making his way to the ring weighing in at 248 lbs., this is... Diamond Dallas Page!!!
[ The sold-out crowd boos as “It’s me. It’s me. It’s D… D… P!” rocks the arena and Diamond Dallas Page struts out onto the stage. Page walks down to the ring and climbs in making the sign of the Diamond Cutter to the crowd who continues to boo him. Page doesn’t seem to care about the fan reaction as turns around and stares down Massive Mike. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Tough loss for Page at High Stakes a week ago when he dropped the belt to Alexander Stone in a brutal match that saw Page succumb to the Stonebreaker.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Unbelievably, that was Page’s first loss since rejoining the Empire this year. That loss dropped him down to fourth place in the World title rankings. Now, after listening to him earlier; it seems he might have his sights set on loftier prizes.
[ The referee makes sure both men are ready and then calls for the ball as they lock up.

[ Massive Mike hits the ropes going for a legdrop, but Page rolls out of the way. Page hits the ropes and destroys Make with a basement clothesline. Page is going for the pin as Yali Sapphire counts ...1 ...2 ...and Crazy Man holds down Massive Mike’s feet ...2 ½ ...and Massive Mike shoots his shoulder up and everyone in the building is stunned!!! ]

Again, Page grabs a hold of Massive Mike's mask tearing away at it and he nearly has it off when Massive Mike elbows Page in the gut driving the air out of his lungs. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Page has made every attempt to get that mask off of Mike. He knows that it can be a huge distraction for the big man who refuses to show his face.
[ Page rakes the eyes of Massive Mike. Page whips Massive Mike into the ropes and goes for another Diamond Cutter, but he can't grab Mike with his neck being so fat!!!

[ Massive Mike looks frustrated as he rolls Page up again hooking both legs this time as Yali Sapphire counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and DDP gets his shoulder up!!! ]

“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – What a shoulder tackle by Page to take the five-hundred-pound monster down. But for what it’s worth, it wasn’t enough to win the match.

The two combatants turn to face each other as the bell rings and the time limit has expired!!! ]
The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – This match has been deemed a time limit draw!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What a brutal match out there tonight. Page tried his best to hit the Diamond Cutter on three separate attempts but each time he could not get his hands around Mike’s huge neck.
[ Mike stands in the center of the ring looking dead into DDP’s eyes. He raises his hand and Page looks down at it. Page reaches out and shakes Mike’s hand pulling him in close and whispering something into his ear for a second. As they break apart, Page raises Mike’s hand and the crowd cheers them on for showing great sportsmanship. Page points at Mike as he walks back toward Crazy Man and Messiah confused as fuck as to why Page would show mercy. Page motions for them to let it go and he rolls out of the ring and heads back up the ramp. ]

The World Heavyweight Champion Go-D – Take his ass out!!!

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What in the hell is Go-D doing?! He just took out another Legacy member!!!
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – I have to think that the private conversation that Page had with Go-D didn’t go so good if he’s now attacking Page and leaving him for dead!!!
[ Messiah and Crazy Man watch from the ring as Massive Mike tells them both to help Page out!!! Together, Crazy Man and Messiah rush up the ramp as Go-D and Conner slowly and methodically walk to the back leaving Page for dead. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, as we try and sort this mess out; let’s go to the back and hear from both Chandler Hopkins and Mitch Fierce before their match which is coming up next.
[ The videotron comes on as it shows Cindy Meyers standing next to Chandler Hopkins who has a bandage on his head from the shovel shot he took from Owens Thursday on Afterburn. ]
Cindy Meyers – Chandler, at High Stakes you defeated Jake Owens earning yourself the opportunity to bring Owens to your ranch and make him do whatever you wanted for a day. We all watched how that went down Thursday night on Afterburn when he attacked you with that shovel knocking you out. Now earlier tonight, we all learned that Shane suspended Owens for thirty days due to the contract violation. What are your thoughts.
“The Outlaw” Chandler Hopkins – My thoughts? My thoughts is that Owens is a cowardly prick. He wouldn’t shovel a little shit so he violated a legal contract and attacked me. You can be damn sure that when his thirty days are up, I’m going to be waiting at the door for him and that the first face he’s going to see is mine!!! Payback’s a bitch and I plan on fucking him up!!!
Cindy Meyers – Tonight you go up against the monstrous Mitch Fierce. For the past month, Mitch has steamrolled right through the Million Dollar Dream Team, even taking one hundred thousand dollars from Tony Tran.
“The Outlaw” Chandler Hopkins – Listen, I seen the footage. The guys big. He’s got huge muscles. He’s got a hot chick. But I got heart and determination. If he thinks he’s going to walk out to that ring tonight and that I am going to lay down for him he’s got another thing coming. This cowboy don’t lay down for no man!!! So, Mitch, you can bring all that anger and hate with you, because tonight you’re looking right down the barrel of one of the best damn “Outlaws” in the Empire today.
Cindy Meyers – Good luck tonight. Maxwell, over to you.
[ Backstage Mitch Fierce is loosening up for his match against Chandler Hopkins when he is approached by Maxwell Shaw and the camera crew. Mitch gives Maxwell a daggered look. ]
Mitch Fierce - What do you want Max? Don’t answer that. You want to know what I think about my match against Chandler Hopkins right? No, no; better yet you want to know if I’ve spent all of the 100,000 dollars of Tony Trans money. Oh wait, maybe you like everybody wants to know how it’s going with me and Aoife? Any problems going on with us? Let me answer your questions Max. No, I invested the 100,000 and going to make a killing in money. What’s going on with me and Aoife and how it’s going or any other personal things that might be going on in our relationship or otherwise going on is just that. Its personal. Nunya damn business. Aoife is a fantastic woman believe me she beats out any woman I've known. Did I cover everything there, Max?
Maxwell Shaw - You didn’t say anything about your match tonight against Chandler Hopkins
Mitch Fierce - Oh yeah. Who the hell is Chandler Hopkins?
Maxwell Shaw – He’s your opponent for tonight.
Mitch Fierce - Sounds like that cowboy guy. Is it that cowboy guy, Max?
Maxwell Shaw - Yes, it is. Seriously? You don’t know who Chandler Hopkins is?
[ Mitch smirks then laughs. ]
Mitch Fierce - Seriously do you think I give a damn who he is? He must not be anybody for me to bother with getting to know about. You know something though Max?
Maxwell Shaw - What?
Mitch Fierce - I can tell you exactly who Chandler Hopkins is...Another victim. Another victim of the Fierce Bomb and being defeated. You see Max, tonight out there in that ring you’re going to see a very different Mitch Fierce. I’m going to live up to my name Fierce. Tonight, you’re going to witness along with all these people in the Tacoma Dome the Mitch Fierce of the old days. The Mitch Fierce that destroyed his opponents. The Mitch Fierce with one single focus and that’s tearing anybody apart that gets in my way of becoming a champion which reminds me, I like to injure my opponents if Hopkins don’t want to be put on the shelf tonight then he needs to keep his ass out of my way and out of my ring its best for his wellbeing if he does. Tonight, Chandler Hopkins is my first victim on my way to getting what I want. I’m ranked number 1...1! in the United States Heavyweight Championship rankings and I'll be damned if I’m going to be overlooked for a title shot while some other nobody gets a shot at the US title before me. Travis Blake, Mr. So called face of the Empire or whatever the hell you call yourself listen up and listen good boy. I’m coming for that US title. I’m coming for you! I know you’re probably not going to take me seriously and try to overlook me like I’m a crazy old man. Crazy? Maybe just a little. Stupid? Not by a long shot. I’m not going to sit around and wait. I’m not going to watch some nobody leap frog over me and get a US title shot. You aren’t invincible Travis. If you choose to ignore me then I will get your attention one way or the other. As for you Chandler Hopkins? Hell, I’m guessing your no Tony Tran because you actually might put up a fight but it will be futile. My old grandma could whoop Tran and his Golden BoyZ asses. Believe me when I say this Hopkins heed my words...
[ Mitch looks dead into the camera anger on his face. ]
Mitch Fierce - After I’m done with you tonight it’s going to feel like you’ve been run over by a semi-truck over and over again. You'll be lucky if you walk out of the ring and not be carried out boy. You think you got it all figured out how to beat the monster? The genetic marvel? What you think you know you don’t know but do know you’re going to get a beatdown like none you’ve ever had before. You’re going to feel the pain, maybe even blood trickling down your face when I unleash the TRUE side of me and that’s very bad for you Hopkins. The true Fierce side of me is going to mop that ring with you tonight Chandler. Be lucky if there’s anything left of you that’s recognizable when it’s over! Pray that for your sake Hopkins I don’t decide to prolong your suffering or hurt you that I decide to end it fast and just Fierce Bomb your ass through the ring! I’m coming for you Hopkins! Be afraid boy!
Maxwell Shaw - Strong words Mitch but Chandler Hopkins is better than Tony Tran
[ Mitch glares at Maxwell. ]
Mitch Fierce - I don’t give a damn how good Hopkins thinks he is he’s nothing. He’s barely an anybody just barely but to me he’s a nobody and tonight, I put Hopkins down like a dog! Now, if there’s nothing else get the hell out of my face. I got an ass kicking to deal out to Chandler Hopkins then I’m going back to the hotel because I got plans with a very special and beautiful woman Aoife. Go away Max now!
[ Max hurries away with the camera crew as it then goes back to the announcer’s table. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, we will dive deeper into our next match, but we need to tell all of you that Diamond Dallas Page has been taken by ambulance to a local hospital for further evaluation after being brutally assaulted by Conner Edge and the World Heavyweight Champion Go-D. We are being told that there might be serious injuries to his neck and upper spinal area. As soon as we know more, we will bring it right to you.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Phillip, this is such a tragic tale of a team that had it all; but are on the cusp of disintegrating right before our very eyes. Page lost his TV title and now seems to be tossed out of Legacy. Crazy Man and Messiah lost their match to Massive Mike and are now seemingly exiled. Conner Edge is brought in and he’s showing a much more ruthless edge to himself. What kind of Legacy are we looking at going into 2022 is anyone’s guess, but it doesn’t seem good does it?
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – No it does not. And for Diamond Dallas Page, who is sixty-five years old by the way; and injury like this could shelve him forever. This is not the way Page wants to be remembered. Folks, it’s time to turn to our next match of the night and it’s a big one. Mitch Fierce will be taking on Chandler Hopkins and it’s coming up next. Let’s go back to the ring and join Harvey Weinstein once again for the introductions!!!
Mitch Fierce vs Chandler Hopkins
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 weighing in at 290 lbs, this is... Mitch Fierce!!!
[ The crowd roars to their feet booing as “Ladies and Gentlemen” by Saliva hits over the PA system as Mitch Fierce walks out from backstage and pyros shoot off behind him. He then makes his way to the ring paying, no attention to the fans as he climbs the ring steps entering the ring and shakes the ropes angrily. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – As much as Mitch has been through, these fans continue to boo him. One would think that he would have earned at least their respect for taking out the Million Dollar Dream Team.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – It’s a love, hate thing Phil. John Cena always got booed and he was a baby face for life. Tank was the nastiest guy in the Empire for years and the fans loved to cheer for him.
The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – And his opponent. Making his way to the ring weighing in at 185 lbs.; he is “The Outlaw” Chandler Hopkins!!!
[ The Texas Cowboy struts out on stage as “The Rodeo Theme” by Chandler Hopkins and Magnificent Malico rocks the arena. The crowd cheers him as he walks down to the ringside area. He slowly climbs the ring steps and waits on the ring apron as the referee has to restrain Owens from going after him. Owens repeatedly points up at the cross. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What a stretch this young man has been on as of late. He defeated Jake Owens at High Stakes just to be laid out on Afterburn when he tried to cash in on his contract.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Jake Owens may have thought he did the right thing, but as we all learned earlier tonight; he’s going to lose a ton of money riding the pine for the next thirty days. Dumb move if you ask me.
[ The referee calls for the bell and they lock up. Hopkins attempts an Exploder suplex, but Mitch counters it with an elbowsmash to the side of the head that rocks Hopkins. Mitch runs into the ropes and misses with a clothesline, but Hopkins comes off the far ropes and levels Mitch with a diving clothesline of his own. Hopkins gets back to his feet and runs into the ropes and nails Mitch in the back of the head with a thunderous basement dropkick!!! Hopkins covers Mitch up as Ken Peterson counts ...1 ...2 ...and Mitch kicks out!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Very smart game plan by Hopkins to keep Mitch grounded. If you can keep the big man off his feet, you will have neutralized his power game and folks, this guy is scary powerful.
[ Hopkins sends Mitch into the turnbuckle, but Mitch reverses it and Hopkins crashes in. Mitch attempts a chokehold, but Hopkins blocks it and hits a cradle piledriver on Mitch. Hopkins runs into the ropes, but Mitch gets to his feet and levels hits Hopkins with a spinning back elbow. Mitch delivers a pumphandle backbreaker on Hopkins. Mitch goes for an Exploder suplex, but Hopkins blocks it and whips Mitch into the ropes. Mitch rockets off and takes Hopkins inside out with a running lariat. Mitch drags Hopkins to his feet and starts laying in on him with rapid fire chops. Hopkins gets a huge burst of energy from the fans and drives Mitch’s head into the top turnbuckle!!! Hopkins punches Mitch. Hopkins kicks Mitch. Mitch chops Hopkins. Hopkins chops Mitch. Hopkins nails Mitch with another headsmash into the top turnbuckle. Mitch is dazed and Hopkins hits a fallaway slam on Mitch and hooks the legs for the cover ...1 ...2 ...but Mitch gets his shoulder up!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Hopkins has to hope that he has withstood Mitch’s early barrage and that if he can dig deep enough, he can beat this beast of a man.
[ Mitch sits up and Hopkins nails a jumping side kick into Mitch. Hopkins drags Mitch to his feet and sends him into the turnbuckle. Hopkins charges into the corner, but Mitch moves out of the way and Hopkins drives his right shoulder into the unforgiving ringpost!!! Hopkins staggers out of the corner holding his shoulder and arm in pain when Mitch levels him with a Discus Punch. Mitch attempts a front face-lock, but Hopkins has him well scouted and pushes off the ropes with his feet rolling Mitch over onto his back for the ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Mitch reaches out managing to grab the ropes!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What a sensational move by Hopkins to roll through that submission move by using the ropes to get the pin attempt on Fierce!!! Hopkins is wrestling the match of his life right now!!!
[ Hopkins pulls Mitch away from the ropes and locks him in a Calf Crusher. Mitch is frantic as the pain is excruciating!!! Mitch presses upwards and walks on his hands toward the ropes and grabs them. Hopkins drags Mitch to his feet and hits a fallaway slam!!! Hopkins hits Mitch with a scissor kick to the back of the neck!!! Hopkins goes for a figure-four leglock, but Mitch uses his powerful arms and legs to roll it over putting all the pressure on Hopkins!!! Both men stagger to their feet on damaged legs and it is Mitch that levels Hopkins with a Discus lariat. Mitch gets a boot choke on Hopkins against the ropes on Hopkins and the referee starts his count ...1 ...2 ...3 ...4 ...and seemingly Mitch isn’t about to let go when "Wake of The Dream" by Mudvayne explodes across the arena and Mitch spins around to see Tony Tran walk out on stage all dressed up in a business suit and tie with dark sunglasses on and a shit eating grin on his face. ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – What the hell does this clown want?
[ The crowd boos as Tran slowly raises the mic to his mouth. ]
“The Million Dollar Man” Tony Tran – Mitch, Mitch, Mitch, did you really think that this little dance between you and I was over? Did you really think that I would let you walk away with all that money and not at least give you one last parting gift? Hell, it was a hundred thousand dollars; buddy!!! Just think about what you could do with all my money!!! You could buy a house!!! Buy a couple of cars!!! Or maybe, just maybe; you could rent a couple of penthouse suites and bang the crap out of Aoife all night. You know who Aoife is right? Young, hot; Irish girl.
[ Tran motions to someone backstage and Jake Owens drags out Aoife Valkyrie by her hair. A trickle of blood can be seen coming from the right corner of her mouth. A blackeye is starting to form around her right eye. ]
“The Million Dollar Man” Tony Tran – Let’s just say that she wasn’t very enthusiastic about coming out here. Hey, maybe she’s a little camera shy? Either way, Jake persuaded her and here she is. But you have to be asking why? Why did I go through all this? Why is Aoife out here? Why is Jake Owens out here? Well let’s start with the obvious. I paid Jake to be out here. I paid Jake to make sure that, like it or not; Aoife was out here. You see Mitch, you need to be taught a lesson. You need to learn that there is a hierarchy here in the Empire. I’m the Alpha dog, and you’re just a little bitch. Now we can do this the easy way, or we can do this the hard way. The easy way is for you to take the count-out loss and walk up this ramp and save the damsel in distress; or you can go back to doing whatever you were doing out there with Hopkins and we will end this little tryst you’ve been having with Aoife ourselves!!!
[ The crowd boos their asses off as Owens sets Aoife up for the Instant Death (pop-up knee smash to the face)!!! Tran smiles as he watches Mitch think long and hard. ]
“The Million Dollar Man” Tony Tran – Come on Mitchie, you would think if you really cared for this woman, it would be an easy decision!!! Save the girl, or feed your ego?! What’s it going to be? The girl, or your precious rankings? Oh, I heard what you said earlier about the US title rankings. Mr. Number One Contender. How far do you think you’ll fall if you take the loss tonight? But!!! But, but, but can you really live with yourself if you don’t save her?
[ The crowd boos Tran even louder. ]
“The Million Dollar Man” Tony Tran – Come on Mitch, time’s money. What are you going to do???
[ Hopkins comes from behind and starts to club Mitch from behind. Mitch takes the shots, but it seems to have the opposite effect as Hopkins would have hoped as it charges him up. Mitch spins around and drives Hopkins across the ring into the corner folding the smaller man in half!!! Fierce spins Hopkins around and glares with intense hatred up at Tran who just smirks at Mitch. Mitch screams in rage as he nails the Fierce Bomb (a spinebuster set-up into a fierce Sit-out Powerbomb) on Hopkins!!! Mitch rolls Hopkins up for the ...1 ...2 ...3!!! ]
Time of match: 0:09:44
The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The winner of this match by pinfall, Mitch Fierce!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What a decision he had in front of him. I am afraid that this is going to change him for a long time to come.
[ Tran smiles at Mitch as he does a cheesy clap for him. ]
“The Million Dollar Man” Tony Tran – Great job big guy, great job. But it’s going to cost yah.
[ Tran nods at Jake Owens who grins evilly from ear to ear as he sends Aoife into the air and blasts her in the face with the Instant Death (pop-up knee smash to the face)!!! Aoife screams out in pain as she grabs her face trying to stop the flow of blood from her shattered nose!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – My God what kind of evil man is Jake Owens to devastate Aoife like that!!!
[ Tran and Owens walk off the stage as EMT’s, Gail Kim and Courtney Cox rush out to help Aoife who is screaming in pain. Mitch leaves the ring and makes his way to the top of the ramp and tries to help, but Courtney shoves him away screaming at him. ]
Courtney “Loves” Cox – This is your fault!!! This is all your fault!!! She’s hurt because of you!!! You and your precious ego!!! This is how you show you care about hew, you son of a bitch!!!
[ The Women’s World Champion Millie McKenzie comes out and pulls a pissed off Courtney Cox away from Mitch as the EMT’s put a neck brace on Aoife and places her on a stretcher quickly wheeling her to a waiting ambulance. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, it’s a tough time for this; but we need to debut the brand new EMPIRESHOP.COM commercial right before the Christmas holiday!!! This should be good.
[ We open on a cartoon town as a familiar but legally changed music starts up, suddenly on the screen pops up. ]
It's an Empireshop.com Christmas, Godzilla Brown.
[ We cut to a field where a Godzilla Sanchez, dressed similar to Charlie Brown but changed just enough to get by legal, is running towards a girl in a blue dress holding a football for him. As he gets in kicking distance, she pulls the football and he goes up in the air and crashes to the ground. Now that she’s standing, we see the girl is Amber Nova. She spikes the ball onto Chuck Brown's groin and joins the other members of the Bullet Club in mocking poor Chuck Brown. A cartoon dog that looks similar to Snoopy but is dressed like Maverick Edge walks up to the downed young man. ]
Moopey - Aw man Godzilla, you trusted the Bullet Club again?
Godzilla Brown - I know Snoop....er, Moopey, I shouldn't, but they shop at Empireshop.com, that shows they have to have some good fashion sense, right?
Moopey - Well Godzilla Brown, the good news is, you can start shopping there too. And this Christmas season, they are offering all sorts of awesome deals.
[ Godzilla Brown pulls out a cell phone and his screen fills ours as we see product images with his voice over. ]
Godzilla Brown (v.o) - Buy one get one half off on all shirts! 10 percent off all Ugly Christmas sweaters! And now featuring hot coco mugs with any member of the Empire roster on them.
Moopey (V.O) - And with every purchase they'll toss in a free Travis Blake action figure since we sold all of three out of 500, we ordered. And, you can make a wish list and send it directly to Santa.
[ Suddenly we cut to the sky and see Santa is in distress as his sleigh is being chased by an airplane with confederate flags. ]
Godzilla Brown - Oh no Moopey, it's the Redneck Baron, Mance Warner, and he's trying to stop Santa from delivering Empireshop.com Christmas presents.
[ Moopey runs to his dog house and it changes into a fighter jet. He takes off and is on the chase. ]
The Redneck Baron - I'm not racist, this is my heritage, hahahaha.
Santa Claus - I can't outrace him, I'm too weighed down by Empireshop.com merch, help, he's already got two of my reindeer.
Moopey - It's time to go to the Danger Zone.
[ Moopey flies his dog house fighter jet and launches a missile blowing up the Redneck Baron. ]
Santa Claus - HohoHo Moopey, just for that here’s a special new shirt for you and all the Empire fans.
Moopey - Wow, it's Godzilla, me and Alexander Stone looking similar to copy righted characters of the peanuts comics and shows.
[ Suddenly, a little bird flies on his shoulder, that looks similar to Alexander Stone. ]
StoneStock - Oh man, you guys made me Woodstock? Weird choice but cool.
Santa Claus - Empireshop.com, for all your Empire merch needs, Ho Ho Ho.
[ Amber Nova looks up to the sky. ]
“The Perfect 10” Amber Nova - Why does he keep calling for me? It's $40 and a cigarette if you want this Fatman.
Announcer - Empireshop.com, getting you the presents you need in time for the holidays.
[ The videotron comes on as it shows Felix Escobar sitting behind a desk with the his two monstrous minions Mil Muertes and Blood Hunter bookending him on either side. ]
“The Raven” Felix Escobar – Godzilla and Maverick, the two little Chihuahuas nipping at our heels. Please do not take this the wrong way. We think highly of both of you. You are, as they say; two very entertaining creatures. The masses love you both. They buy your tee-shirts. They buy your booze. They sing your silly little songs. They laugh at all your cute little skits. You my friends are marketing geniuses. But what you lack is the in-ring skills to back it up. You will always be living in the shadow of the great Tank Edge. The Ring General. The Arizona Silverback. Kong Arias. So many names, but he always comes home. Home to the Empire. Home to the one place that he always felt safe. But things are about to change little ones. Tonight, my boys are going to take you off the chess board. Tonight, all that will be left is the King and soon; very soon; the Cartel will burn the Empire along with Tank Edge to the ground!!!
[ The cameras cut to static, and then comes back on as it shows a ultra-violent Death match between Tank and Redentor where Tank lost the Mexican World title to him!!! ]
“The Raven” Felix Escobar – The end is coming Tank. There is no running from your past.
[ The show swings back to the announcers desk as we see Phillip and Caristico sitting there. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Strong words from Felix Escobar mainly directed at Tank Edge himself.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Tank has a long-storied history in Mexico especially with Redentor. They were in some gruesome Death Matches and at the end Tank lost his Mexican World title to Redentor before coming back to the United States. I have to wonder why they showed that clip of Tank losing his Mexican World title? Is there something even more sinister in the background that even Tank doesn’t know about?
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Great question. It’s not like Felix or the Cartel have been hiding in the shadows waiting to attack Tank. They have done everything up front. No secrets. They have also been very vocal about their objectives. They want to remove Tank from the chess board and destroy the Empire, plain and simple. Can Tank stop them, that’s the bigger question? Folks, it’s time for tonight’s main event as we will see Mil Muertes and Blood Hunter in action as they take on Godzilla Sanchez and Maverick Edge!!! Let’s go back to the ring one last time and rejoin Harvey Weinstein!!! Harvey, take it away buddy.

His tag team partner Maverick Edge walks out dressed like Brian Pillman with his World Six-man Tag Team title slung over his shoulder. Together, they stands at the top of the ramp as Godzilla sprays a mist in the air. Godzilla elaborately stomps to the ring letting out a Kaiju roar and they make their way down to the ring. Godzilla climbs on the apron and goes to the top rope, taking off his Bret Hart mask, blowing more mist and then does a monster stomp into the ring. Maverick climbs into the ring and stands dead center raises his hand showing a lazy thumbs up as he too removes his Brian Pillman mask. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – The fans here in Washington love the Hart Foundation!!! We are only about a hundred and twenty miles from the Canadian border. That’s about three hours’ drive from here. But Bret Hart himself is from Calgary which is about a thirteen-hour drive north.

[ The sold-out crowd boos as “I came to Collect” by CFO$ rocks the arena and Felix Escobar escorts the two massive men on stage. Felix motions toward the ring and they storm down to the ring and climb in glaring across the ring at their much smaller opponents. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Godzilla and Maverick are giving up one hundred and eighty pounds to Mil Muertes and Blood Hunter tonight. That in itself is a whole nother person. I have no idea how these guys are going to overcome that difference.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Talk about a huge mountain to climb tonight in the form of the six-foot five Blood Hunter and the six-foot one Mil Muertes!!! It’s going to take everything they have to chop these two guys down to size!!!

Epilogue
[ The morning after Adrenaline the owner of the Empire chose to sleep in. The show ran extra-long last night and after a post-show meeting being updated on the numerous injuries, he finally got to bed around 2am. A little after 10am, his front door to his house explodes open and it startles him awake. He puts his bathrobe on and rushes down to the living area where he sees his wife sitting at the dining room table crying. Dozens of DEA agents are ram-sacking his home while an older man approaches him. ]
DEA Agent – Are you the owner of the World Wrestling Empire?
[ Mark is still half asleep and this seems like a bad dream. ]
The owner of the World Wrestling Empire – I am. What’s going on here? Why have you busted into my house?
[ The DEA agent waves a piece of paper in his face. ]
DEA Agent – We have a search warrant.
The owner of the World Wrestling Empire – Search warrant? This is crazy. For what?
DEA Agent – We believe that you are embezzling money alongside the Escobar Cartel.
[ Mark looks confused. ]
The owner of the World Wrestling Empire – The Cartel? Are you nuts?
DEA Agent – Please turn around and put your hands behind your back.
[ Mark turns around and looks at his wife as the DEA Agent cuffs him. ]
The owner of the World Wrestling Empire – Get ahold of our lawyer. Tell him everything you know.
DEA Agent - You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to an attorney. If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be provided for you. Do you understand the rights I have just read to you? With these rights in mind, do you wish to speak to me?
The owner of the World Wrestling Empire – I would rather wait if you don’t mind.
[ As the search through Mark’s house continues, the DEA agent puts Mark in the cop car and takes him down to the station for further questioning. ]
