ADRENALINE
Live Monday night February 28th, 2022
from the sold-out National Indoor Stadium in Yangon, Myanmar 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 – Hiya folks. Phillip, what an incredible show we have in store for tonight as we are just six nights away from our Last Rites pay per view event and here’s what we have so far. There will be a War Games match where the Anarchy Suicide Squad led by Psycho Messiah will take on the Forgotten. Godzilla will be defending his World Cruiserweight title against Maverick. Amber Nova will defend her Women’s World title against the Women’s National Champion Shanna Furguson. Felix Escobar is forced to put his roster spot on the line against his step brother Tito!!! And that’s not all. We will also see the finals for the Emperor’s Crown Tournament where one man will earn a World Heavyweight title shot at any pay per view of his choosing. We will also see the World Tag Team and the Women’s World Tag Team titles defended as both challengers will be determined right here tonight.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – That’s right. Two number one Contendership matches right here tonight along with the semi-finals of the Emperor’s Crown Tournament where we will see Alexander Stone taking on his nemesis Travis Blake in one match and the powerful Mitch Fierce taking on Steve Scott in the other!!!
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – It’s been one hell of a tournament to crown a number one contender and I have to tell you that these four men will have their hands full tonight. These are pay per view quality matches. Even the dark horse Steve Scott has a shot tonight in upsetting Mitch Fierce and becoming the first man to either pin him or make him tap out.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, I am getting word that the World Heavyweight Champion Tank Edge is on his way out to the ring and he’s in a foul mood.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – After what that crazed “Superfan” Benny Dutton did to him last week it’s no surprise.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – And here he comes!!!
[ The crowd pops as “Painkiller” by Judas Priest comes on and out walks the World Heavyweight Champion Tank Edge. He seems unsure and definitely not in a good mood as he gets in the ring and grabs a microphone. ]
The World Heavyweight Champion “The Ring General” Tank Edge - Well, where do I even start here? I'm at a loss of what to even say when it comes to this whole Benny thing. I started this month running down all my possible opponents in the Emperor's Crown tournament and now I'm getting stalked and assaulted by some guy who thinks he's a wrestler. It's like if Stan came to life, but I think this guy’s goal now is to lock me in the trunk. Maybe I could have been nicer. Maybe I could have humored the guy. He was a mega fan and all. But you know you always say you don't want to set a precedent. I let him manage me, suddenly I have to let every deranged guy who smells like he took a bath in patchouli oil manage me. So, I tried to let him down gently; but a like a certain ex-wife, he just couldn't just ride off in the sunset and get some much-needed therapy.
[ Tank shakes his head in disappointment. ]
The World Heavyweight Champion “The Ring General” Tank Edge - What we got here is, a failure to communicate. Some men you just can't reach, which is what Benny wants. Well, he's going to get it. I'd rather go into the pay per view and shut up Travis Blake, or Mitch Fierce or even fucking Mance Warner or something; but here I am about to do something I never thought I'd do. So, I sat down with the lawyers and the bosses and cleared all the legal shit and...
[ Tank takes a deep sigh and looks to the Heavens. ]
The World Heavyweight Champion “The Ring General” Tank Edge - Benny boy, I didn't want to have to hurt you, but like a disobedient child in the 70's; I'm going to have to hurt ya. At Last Rites Benny, you’re getting your shot. May whatever God you believe in have mercy on your soul, because I'm going to find every nerve ending in your body and make sure each and every one screams in pain.
[ Just as Tank is about to leave the ring, the videotron goes all staticky and you can hear a woman’s voice... ]
Women’s voice - This is a test. This station is conducting a test of the Emergency Broadcast System. This is only a test.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What the hell, someone just hacked into our system!!!
[ The static on the videotron clears and we see the smiling face of “Superfan” Benny Dutton smiling down at Tank. }
“Superfan” Benny Dutton – Tank, you’re going to what? What was it you said? Give me what I want?
[ Benny laughs at Tank. ]
“Superfan” Benny Dutton – Give me what I want? How about giving me what I deserve? I’ve earned this. I have given you everything Tank. All my money. All my time. All my energy. And this, this pathetic way of giving me what I want is the best you could do? Did Reverend Odom write that script for you? I can’t believe I have wasted my life following you. Or how easy it was to take this from you.
[ Benny smiles as he lifts up the World Heavyweight title into view. ]
“Superfan” Benny Dutton – Look what we got here.
[ Benny closes his eyes and smells the gold belt like it’s a bouquet of roses before opening his eyes again. ]
“Superfan” Benny Dutton – Can you smell it Tank? Can you smell the history of this belt? The dozens of men that held this belt over the years? Pezzer, Crazy Man, Go-D, Kevin Nash, DDP, Reverend Snow, oh and let’s not forget the love of your life Samantha Skylar.
[ Benny winks at the camera. ]
“Superfan” Benny Dutton – Ah, the proverbial fish that got away. Now that would have been a great love story, but it wasn’t meant to be; was it?
[ Benny rubs the World title like he’s patting a cat. ]
“Superfan” Benny Dutton – Tank, I accept your challenge and I look forward to defending this World Heavyweight Championship and make please do not make any excuses when I embarrass you and become the NEW... UNDISPUTED... WORLDS... HEAVYWEIGHT... CHAMPION!!!
[ You can hear Benny laughing as the videotron goes back to static and the voice of the woman returns once again. ]
Women’s voice - This is a test. This station is conducting a test of the Emergency Broadcast System. This is only a test.
[ The scene goes backstage where Mitch Fierce is seen standing by with Maxwell Shaw. Mitch looks agitated and Shaw looks nervous. ]
Maxwell Shaw - Mitch tonight you face Steve Scott in the second round of the Emperors Crown Tournament. Last week Steve advanced to face you-
[ Mitch puts his hand up in Max’s face. ]
World Six-man Tag Team Champion “The Fierce One" Mitch Fierce - Shut up Max. Steve Scott you got a free pass last week dodged a bullet against Godzilla but this week you don’t get no free pass. This week you are now in my sights, in my way of getting a World Heavyweight Title shot. Ask anybody that I have beaten in this tournament what it feels like knowing they had to face me, to get past me only to end up getting their ass handed to them and their run in this tournament ending. Steve, you are the luckiest and unluckiest guy in this tournament. Luckiest because you much like Chandler Hopkins got in by the skin of your teeth at number seven because Go-D and Massive Mike were out. I have been the number one seed before the tournament started and still am. What does that tell you Steve? It tells me that you suck that you didn’t belong in this tournament to begin with. Luck was on your side when you barely got in. Tonight, you’re unlucky, your luck runs out game over for you in this tournament because you face me. You’re staring down the barrel of Mitch Fierce you’re not dodging the bullet tonight you’re not getting a free pass. What you are getting is an ass kicking. You have to go through me tonight. I’m a different kind of beast inside that ring Steve. Ask. Jake Owens about that when I put him on the shelf injured out of action after our Hell in a Cell match. Ask anyone I have beaten what kind of beast I am. You see Steve, there’s the side of me that just likes to destroy everything, beat the living hell out of my opponents leaving them broken down and defeated. My animalistic side comes out and I can’t control it. That’s the Mitch Fierce you’re facing tonight, Steve. I’m aware of your friends in The Forgotten. I will have eyes in the back of my head because I know how you guys do things. I'll be ready. I’ve had the numbers game against me before and survived and if need be, I'll fight anyone of the Forgotten and still stomp a mudhole in you Steve and win the match going on to win my shot at the World Heavyweight Championship. You got a free pass last week this week I’m going to show you and everybody else why you didn’t even belong in this tournament. Luck got you in. Getting a free pass advanced you I end you and your tournament run tonight. You drew the shit luck card tonight, Steve. Luck isn’t on your side anymore. The beast is going to be unleashed on you tonight, Steve! You will join the others I have defeated and crushed their hopes of getting a World Heavyweight Championship shot. You have to fight tonight, Steve. If you’re lucky, I'll let you survive. If not, after I beat you, then you'll be on the shelf. Bring it Steve. You’re the next victim of “The Fierce One" Mitch Fierce!
[ Mitch looks at Max who says nothing as Mitch walks off as the show swings across the arena where we see “The 2021 Queen of the Ring” Millie McKenzie standing next to Cindy Meyers. ]
Cindy Meyers – Millie, tough loss at Climax in that Triple Threat match against Amber and Kiera.
“The 2021 Queen of the Ring” Millie McKenzie – Yeah, anytime you have the three top women in the same ring at the same time anything can happen. Unfortunately, it wasn’t my night; but I will regroup and come back stronger in the Empress of Tomorrow Tournament.
Cindy Meyers – That’s right. Right now, you are ranked number one in the upcoming tournament with Shanna hot on your heels after Kier took that stunning loss last week to Su Yim.
“The 2021 Queen of the Ring” Millie McKenzie – Stunning? I think that Su Yim is one of the most under-rated women on the roster. She has the talent to beat anyone on the roster on any given night. She just needs to get some momentum behind her and we all better watch out.
Cindy Meyers – You speak very highly of her. Is that because right now you might be facing her in the first round?
“The 2021 Queen of the Ring” Millie McKenzie – No, it’s got nothing to do with that. I give respect where respect is due and she’s earned my respect.
Cindy Meyers – Speaking of earning your respect, to night you face Maria Manic in the opening match of the night. Do you respect her?
“The 2021 Queen of the Ring” Millie McKenzie – Maria is a powerhouse and you have to respect that. Very few women on this roster can match her raw strength. So, to answer your question; yeah, I respect her. But that doesn’t mean that I am going to take her lightly either. You see, I can’t afford to lose this match either. There’s too much on the line right now. If I’m going to get another shot at Amber, I’m going to have to go through three of the top women we got.
Cindy Meyers – Well, good luck tonight, Millie.
“The 2021 Queen of the Ring” Millie McKenzie – Thank you Cindy.
[ Mallie walks off as we see Kiera Hogan hiding in the shadows listening to everything that Millie just said. ]
“The Queen Slaya’” Kiera Hogan – Yah respect Su Yim, but yah don’t respect me? I’ll show yah some damn respect. You just wait and see “Queen”!!!
[ The show swings back to the announcers desk where we see Phillip and Caristico standing by. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Why won’t Kiera just leave things alone? Why is it she has this obsession with Millie McKenzie?
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – I think it’s because she knows that Millie is better than she is and she can’t live with it. What’s the old saying, “always the bride’s maid but never the bride”?
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – In my opinion, Kiera needs to earn what Millie has and right now she’s not even close. Folks, it’s time to kick things off with action from the women’s division as Millie McKenzie takes on Maria Manic. Let’s get right to the ring for this opening bout.
Maria Manic vs Millie McKenzie
“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 from West Midlands, England; she weighs in at 128 lbs.; this is “The 2021 Queen of the Ring” Millie McKenzie!!!
[ "The Enemy" by The Commonjets rocks the arena as Millie walks out on stage to the roar of the crowd who all love her. Millie walks down to the ring, taking her time to high five all her fans. Millie walks around the ring and climbs the ring steps before stepping through the ropes and mounts the corner turnbuckle as the crowd gives her a standing ovation!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Millie comes into this match as the number one contender to the Women’s World title with a none and four record. She is currently the number one seed in the upcoming Empress of Tomorrow Tournament, but that could all come to a crashing halt if she ends up losing tonight and Shanna manages to win the World title at Last Rites.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – That’s right Phil, just like the Emperor’s Crown Tournament; the Women are jockeying for position hoping to get the best seeding possible going into this tournament. If the tournament started today, Millie would draw Su Yim in the first round. I can’t wait to see who is crowned the 2022 Empress of Tomorrow.
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – And her opponent!!! Making her way to the ring from Mechanicsville, Virginia; she weighs in at 161 lbs.; she is a former Women’s National Champion, this is… “The Maneater” Maria Manic!
[ The crowd cheers as “Unbreakable” by Michael Elgin plays as Maria storms down to the ring and marches up the ring steps and climbs into the ring!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – And here comes the powerhouse Maria Manic. Maria is currently the number one contender to Shanna’s Women’s National title with an eleven and thirteen record. If the tournament started today, she would be the number six seed and would have to face Kiera Hogan in the opening round.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – This is a very important night for Maria. With a win tonight it will assure her of a title match against Shanna in the not-too-distant future and it will also lock her in to the number six seed.
[ The bell rings and Millie goes right at Maria nailing a dropkick to the knee. Millie uses an arm grapevine submission on Maria, but they are too close to the ropes and Maria reaches out and grabs them. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Quick thinking by Millie to end this as fast as possible. The only problem is that they were too close to the ropes. Ring positioning is everything when it comes to submission moves.
[ They get to their feet and Maria hits a springboard bulldog on Millie. Maria whips Millie into the turnbuckle and Millie comes back and rocks Maria with a clothesline. Millie climbs to the top turnbuckle, but Maria throws her to the mat. Maria goes for a superkick, but Millie counters it with a legsweep takedown. Millie drags Maria to her feet and whips her into the ropes. Maria comes off the ropes and drives a high knee into Millie. Maria goes for a ripcord cutter, but Millie ducks out of the way and attempts a Russian legsweep, but Maria counters it with an elbowsmash right to the side of the head. Maria hits a spinning backbreaker on Millie. Maria goes for a Texas Cloverleaf, but Millie kicks her off. Millie attempts a corner forearm smash, but Maria ducks out of the way and Millie crashes into the turnbuckle. Back and forth both women go with open hands chops, kicks and punches until Maria sends Millie into the ropes and drives her down with a spine buster. Maria covers Millie as Todd Sinclair counts ...1 ...2 ...and Millie powers out just in time!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – That’s the raw power of Maria Manic that Millie needs to avoid if she’s going to win this match tonight. She will never match up with Maria’s power game.
[ Millie gets to her feet and hits a standing dropkick on Maria. Millie drags Maria to her feet and hits her with a snap suplex into the turnbuckles. Millie tries for another arm grapevine submission, but Maria again grabs the ropes. Both women get to their feet and Maria chops Millie. Maria drives a European uppercut into Millie. Maria drives a high knee into Millie. Maria runs into the ropes, but Millie hits Maria with a back body drop. Millie tries for a third arm grapevine submission, but Maria gets her feet in the ropes this time. Both women get to their feet and Millie goes for a bulldog, but Maria counters it with a drop toe hold and turns it into a Crossface submission but Millie desperately reaches out and grabs the ropes!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Both women are going for submission holds to end this match. Millie with three armbar submissions and now the crossface by Maria. All four attempts thwarted when each combatant grabbed the ropes.
[ Now it’s Maria who puts Millie in her own armbar submission but again they are too close to the ropes and Millie drops her foot over the bottom rope breaking the hold. ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – What a complete shift in what I had thought we were going to see tonight. I thought we would see both women open their play books and go for every high-powered move they have, but instead we are seeing a more grounded match where they are trying to make their opponents tap out.
[ Maria drags Millie to her feet and whips her into the ropes, but Millie reverses it and drives a clothesline into Maria. Millie goes for the pin as Todd Sinclair counts ...1 ...2 ...and Maria powers out just in time!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Excellent pin attempt by Millie but it wasn’t enough as Maria easily powers out. It’s going to take more than that to pin Maria’s shoulders to the mat.
[ Both women get to their feet and Maria nails a pump kick into Millie. Maria attempts a suplex, but Millie powers out of it and drives a springboard spear into Maria. Millie goes for the pin as Todd Sinclair counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Maria gets her shoulder up!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – That’s exactly what it’s going to take to take Maria down. Millie is going to have to go to the well and pull out ever power move she’s got.
[ Millie runs into the ropes and misses with a clothesline. Maria attempts a roundhouse kick, but Millie counters it with a legsweep takedown. Millie comes off the turnbuckle and hits an Asai moonsault down onto Maria!!! Millie rolls Maria up as Todd Sinclair counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Maria kicks out just in time!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Maria is rocked right now as Millie can sense that the door is open and the end game might be near. She needs to set maria up for the Dream Maker!!!
[ Millie climbs to the top rope and goes for a twisting somersault splash, but Maria rolls out of the way and Millie crashes to the mat. Maria climbs to the top rope and soars off nailing Millie with an Asai moonsault!!! Maria rolls up Millie as Todd Sinclair counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Millie gets her shoulder up!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – This match is incredible Phillip. We’ve gone from submission attempts, to power moves and now these women are going to the high rent district with aerial assaults. It just goes to show you how diversified these women are in the Empire.
[ Maria sends Millie into the ropes and she goes for a huracanrana from the second rope, but Maria counters it with a sit-out power bomb!!! Maria rolls Millie up hooking the legs as Todd Sinclair counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Millie powers out just in time!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What a move by Maria as she just splattered Millie all over the mat with that sit-out powerbomb!!! But what is more amazing is that Millie was able to kick out of it.
[ Maria sends Millie into the ropes and she tries for a clothesline, but Millie ducks out of the way and nails a dropkick to the knee of Maria. Millie drives an elbowdrop down onto Maria. Maria stagers to her feet and Millie runs into the ropes. Maria goes for a clothesline, but Millie counters it with a Fujiwara armbar, but Maria frantically reaches out and grabs the ropes. Millie drags Maria to her feet and back and forth they go nailing each other with stunning punches, kicks and chops. Millie goes for an enzuigiri, but Maria catches her and drives her into the mat with a side slam. Maria is going for the cover as Todd Sinclair counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Millie slides her leg under the bottom rope saving herself yet again!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Great ring awareness by the former World Champion to know exactly how close to the ropes she is. A few inches away and Maria would have won this match.
[ Maria drives a short-arm lariat into Millie that drives her to the mat. Maria is going for the pin as Todd Sinclair counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Millie drops her foot on the bottom rope breaking the count!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Man, Millie is taking a beating right now as Maria is hitting her with everything in her arsenal and she can’t believe that Millie is still in this match.
[ Maria gets to her feet and runs into the ropes and never sees Millie get up and nail her with a superkick right to the jaw. Maria crawls to the corner where Millie hits a Bronco Buster on her. Millie attempts another twisting somersault splash, but Maria again rolls out of the way and crashes to the mat. Maria rolls Millie up using the turnbuckles as leverage with her feet as Todd Sinclair counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and the referee sees Maria’s feet on the bottom turnbuckle and stops the count!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Desperation move Maria right there to try and win this match as she used her feet on the bottom turnbuckle padding for extra leverage and it almost worked.
[ Maria pounds her fists on the mat before she gets to her feet and measures Millie up and runs into the ropes, but Millie levels Maria with a roundhouse kick!!! Millie drags Maria back to her feet and nails her with the Dream Maker (Front Flip piledriver)!!! Millie goes for the pin as Todd Sinclair counts ...1 ...2 ...3!!! ]
Time of match: 0:10:57
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The winner of this match by pin-fall, Millie McKenzie!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What a brutal match by both women tonight. It was a complete and utter war that these two women just fought.
[ As the referee raises Millie’s arm, Kiera Hogan hits the ring from out of nowhere and blasts Millie from behind with a double axe handle smash!!! Millie tries to cover up as Kiera lays waste to her with repeated forearm shots to her head and face!!! The referee pulls Kiera off of Millie as the crowd boos the shit out of her. ]
“The Queen Slaya’” Kiera Hogan – I’m the Queen Slaya’ you bitch!!! I’m the baddest bitch on the roster!!! I’m going to win this tournament and get my rightful title shot!!!
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Oh no, look out behind you!!!
[ Kiera smiles and laughs as she turns around and comes face to face with Maria Manic!!! Kiera’s face has the look of terror as Maria snaps out and grabs Kiera by the throat. Kiera swings her arms wildly as she tries to break free of Maria’s iron like grasp and she finally resorts to low blowing Maria!!! Maria lets go of Kiera as she reaches for her crotch. Kiera heads for the hills as she drops down and rolls out of the ring heading back up the ramp. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – It’s all well and good when you attack someone from behind. But come face to face who will most likely be your first-round opponent in the tournament and everything changes. Folks, let’s go to the back where Reverend Azazel is standing by.
[ The videotron comes on as it shows Reverend Azazel standing center stage with his Forgotten behind him. ]
Reverend Azazel – Psycho Messiah, the definition of war is a state of armed conflict between different nations or states or different groups within a nation or state. Those groups would be the Forgotten and the Anarchy Suicide Squad. Sunday night Messiah, you lead your men to their impending doom when they enter into the War Chamber against the deadliest men on the entire Empire roster. You see Messiah, we have nothing to lose. Mark saw to that. He has striped us of everything. We are the Forgotten. We seek justice for all the wrongs done to us. All the months of being pushed back so that others can get title shots. Banished from this company. Sunday night at the pay per view, it will be your Last Rites!!!
[ Steve Scott steps up and he looks pissed off. ]
“Bloodlust” Steve Scott – Maverick, last week you stuck your nose in Forgotten business and now I’ve got my crosshairs pointed right at you. You jumped me in my match against Godzilla. Your friend signed on for that match knowing full well what kind of beating he was in store for. But you just couldn’t stay out of it. You had to attack me. Well, payback’s a bitch kid and I have nothing to lose!!! Mark my words, I’m coming for you!!!
[ Jake Owens steps up into the scene. ]
“The Death Dealer” Jake Owens – For my first match back from suspension they feed me “The Russian Bear” Boris Drago. Boris, the end is here for you. Tonight, I am going to snap that knee of yours for the last time and send your ass back to Siberia with the Koloff Dynasty. Drago, you’re a joke. A has been. The biggest thing you ever did was have a ten-minute feud with that loudmouth Travis Blake.
[ Owens laughs into the camera. ]
“The Death Dealer” Jake Owens – Drago, I’m done holding back. I’m done sitting at home while everyone else gets pushed around here. Tonight, I’m going to make an example out of you and after they drag your broken and twisted body out of my ring there will be no way my name will be kept out of any title match. TV title? Mine!!! US title? Mine!!! World title? Tank, your ass is mine!!! Nothing is stopping the Death Dealer!!! If you got a strap, death is coming for all of you!!!
[ Reverend Azazel laughs as he leads his Forgotten away. The show swings across the arena as we see Maxwell Shaw standing by with Spice, Katie Forbes and Joey Ryan. ]
Maxwell Shaw – Ladies, you two have a huge match tonight as you face the Heartbreakers for a shot at Blue Nation and their Women’s World Tag Team titles in just six nights at Last Rites.
[ Spice looks irritated as Katie is filing her nails. ]
“A Slice of” Spice – I cannot understand why we have to even wrestle tonight. We beat Bloody Mary and Havok twice. We beat Jessie and Lia. We are the hottest tag team in the Women’s division right now.
“Cotton Candy” Katie Forbes – I know I’m hot. My titties are sweating.
“A Slice of” Spice – Someone needs to explain to me why we are even having this match.
Maxwell Shaw – Just my opinion, but I would have to think that it’s your overall rankings. You are still ranked third in the division and the Heartbreakers are ranked number one with a much better record.
[ Delta and Loca of Caged Heat walks onto the set. ]
Delta – The biggest question is why aren’t we included in this match? We got a better record then both of you two whores...
“Cotton Candy” Katie Forbes – Whores? Really? Whores don’t get paid for sucking dick. I’ve made a ton of money sucking hundreds of dicks.
Loca – So you’re a hooker then.
“The Don” Joey Ryan – I have you know that my girls are professional sex worker. They each broke six figures last year just in the sex industry alone.
Delta – Back off butt-boy. You’re breath smells like a bag full of dicks.
“Cotton Candy” Katie Forbes – You back off rug muncher.
[ Katie gets right in Delta’s face. ]
“A Slice of” Spice – Hold off. Both of you, cool it.
[ Spice looks at Delta. ]
“A Slice of” Spice – I tell you what. If we go on to Last Rites and win the Women’s World Tag Team titles, like I know we will; we will give the two of you the first title shot.
[ Loca and Delta laugh and fist bump. ]
Loca – You’re gonna give us the first title shot?
“Cotton Candy” Katie Forbes – That’s right, you got a dick in your ear?
[ Loca tries to go after Katie, but Delta holds her back. ]
Delta – Fine. Fine. You win the Women’s World Tag Team titles at Last Rites; we get the first title shot.
[ Spice and Katie walk off leaving Joey behind who eyes Delta and Loca up and down. ]
“The Don” Joey Ryan – I’ve only sucked a few dicks in my career, and I brush my teeth right after; so there.
[ Joey storms off proud of himself as Delta and Loca stand there dumbfounded as the show cuts back to the announcers desk. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, we once again have to apologize for that last segment. The comments made by S.E.X. are in no way endorsed by the Empire or its affiliates.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – And what a very brave offering to Caged Heat that if S.E.X. were to go on to win the Women’s World Tag Team titles at Last Rites, they will give Caged Heat the first title shot right out of the gate. I have to believe that S.E.X. made that offer to either keep Caged Heat out of their matches the next few weeks, or in some way help them get to the pay per view and win so that they can face S.E.X. for the titles.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, it’s time for our second match of the night and this one should tear down the house as these two powerhouses are about to collide in an epic battle of two mammoth men. A few minute ago we heard from Jake Owens and his Forgotten, but now let’s hear from his opponent, Boris Drago.
[ The videotron comes on as we see Boris Drago in the locker room with a towel wrapped around his neck and he looks pissed off. He stops pacing and looks right in the camera. ]
“The Russian Bear” Boris Drago – Jake Owens, you talk big talk; but all you are is a hired gun. Back in Mother Russia, many men do things for money. I have done many unsavory things for money. Things that I am not proud of, and things that I am very proud of. Tonight, I break you. Tonight, I wrap my arms around your neck and I will squeeze you until your head pops clean off. No amount of money is going to be able to fix you once I lock the Iron Curtain on you!!!
[ Drago walks off as the cameras come back to Phillip and Caristico at the announcer’s desk. ]
Jake Owens vs Boris Drago
“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 being accompanied by Reverend Azazel, he hails from San Antonio, Texas and weighs in at 273 lbs.; this is... “The Death Dealer” Jake Owens!!!
[ The crowd roars to their feet as “Everybody Dies” explodes through the PA system as the crazed Jake Owens storms out on stage with evil intent in his eyes with Reverend Azazel walking close behind him. Owens storms down to the ring and climbs as Reverend Azazel takes his place at ringside. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – This is Jake Owens’ first match since we last saw him at Leap of Faith Night 1 inside that Hell in a Cell where he got his ass handed to him by Mitch Fierce. He now comes off his suspension to face Boris Drago in his return match. Jake comes into this match with a one and one record, but he is an immediate threat to anyone that holds a title. This man will do anything it takes to get a title.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – You can say that again as we all learned when he beat the hell out of his tag team partner Eddie O’Shay who he held the World Tag Team titles with when they were part of the Chain Gang.
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – And his opponent. Making his way to the ring from Saint Petersburg, Russia; he weighs in at 245 lbs., this is… “The Russian Bear” Boris Drago!!
[ The fans boo as “Far from the start” by Timati and L’One plays as the Russian monster walks out on stage with to the boos of the sold-out crowd. He storms down to the ring and climbs in. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Boris has had an up and down career here in the Empire. He has suffered two torn ligaments in his right knee and has spent a considerable amount of time on the injured list. Even with that lost time, he has still managed to rack up a seven and fourteen record and currently sits as the number three contender to the TV title.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Boris is coming off of a submission win over STIXX in his last match here in the Empire. It was a nice win to build on, but tonight he goes up against a man of equal strength and equal viciousness.
[ The referee calls for the bell and the two big men walk to the center of the ring and glare at each other. Owens opens up first as he kicks Drago. Drago returns the favor and punches Owens. Drago grabs Owens and whips him into the ropes. Drago misses with a kick and Owens comes off the far ropes with a clothesline that levels Drago. Owens drags Drago to his feet and delivers a nasty headbutt. Owens locks on a sleeperhold, but Drago mule kicks Owens. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – The referee is admonishing Drago right now and Reverend Azazel is beside himself right now at ringside screaming at the referee to disqualify Boris for that blatant low blow!!!
[ Drago pushes the referee aside and punches Owens followed by an open hand chop that echoes across the arena. Drago then whips Owens into the turnbuckle, but Owens explodes back out and rocks Drago with an elbow. Owens comes off the ropes and hits Drago with a baseball slide clothesline. Owens drags Drago to his feet and tries to go for a belly-to-belly suplex, but Drago uses a facerake on Owens. Drago comes off the ropes and hits Owens with a shoulderblock. Owens staggers to his feet and Drago goes for a sleeperhold, but Owens counters it with a jawbreaker. Owens goes for another belly-to-belly suplex, but Drago again counters with an eye gouge on Owens. Drago locks Owens in a chokehold against the ropes and Yali Sapphire warns Drago to let go. Yali Sapphire counts ...1 ...2 ...3 ...4 ...and Drago releases the hold putting his hands in the air smiling at the referee before going right back at Owens. ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – I have to tell you, it’s early in the match; but Owens seems a little overwhelmed right now as he goes toe to toe with the big Russian Bear.
[ Drago grabs Owens and attempts a sleeperhold, but Owens pushes back and drives Drago into the corner. Owens unloads as he nails a left elbow, followed by a right, and then a left, and then a right. Elbow after elbow lands on Drago until Drago staggers out of the corner right into the waiting arms of Owens who then drives him down with a Samoan Drop. Owens is going for the pin as Yali Sapphire counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Drago gets his shoulder up!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What a slam by Owens to take Drago down. With moves like that neither man will last long in this match.
[ Owens drags Drago back to his feet and goes for a lariat, but Drago counters it with a snap suplex that sends Owens crashing into the turnbuckle. Drago drags Owens to his feet and locks on the Iron Curtain (A full nelson submission), but Owens not only has his right hand on the ropes, but he has his right leg wrapped around the middle rope too. Yali Sapphire warns Drago to let go but Drago is out of his mind right now and refuses. Yali Sapphire starts her count ...1 ...2 ...3 ...4 ...5 and Yali Sapphire signals for the bell as she disqualifies Drago!!! ]
Time of match: 0:03:34
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The winner of this match by disqualification, Jake Owens!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Just like that this match is over folks. Boris Drago has been DQ’d because he refused to release that Irion Curtain submission even though Jake Owens was clearly in possession of the ring ropes.
[ Drago still refuses to let go of the ropes even with the referee trying to grab his arms and rip him free. Two more referee’s rush the ring and they too try and pry Drago off of Owens, but again the big Russian refuses to let go.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Come-on, let the man go. You proved your point for Christ’s sake.
[ Just then, Aric Cannon, Marc Fulton and Steve Scott rush down to the ring. Drago sees them coming and he lets Owens go dropping his dead weight to the mat before rolling out of the ring and back-peddling up the ramp with a smile on his face. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Do you get the feeling that it was never Boris’ intentions to win this match tonight as much as it was to make Owens pay for what he said earlier tonight about him?
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – There’s no doubt after watching him take Owens out that this was his plan all along. He needs to watch his back because you know damn well that Owens is going to be looking for him.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, while this match was taking place; Havok stormed into Gail Kim’s office and she demanded a spot in the Empress of Tomorrow’s Tournament. Let’s go back and listen in.
[ The videotron comes on as it shows the Women’s Division General Manager Gail Kim sitting behind her desk when the door bursts open and in storms Havok who looks pissed. ]
The Women’s Division General Manager Gail Kim – Jesus Christ Jess, don’t you knock?
Jessicka Havok – I need answers. Why aren’t I in the tournament? My record is just as good as Solo and Su Yim and they’re in it? Shit’s not right. I thought you were going to be a fair GM?
The Women’s Division General Manager Gail Kim – Well, to be honest; you and Mary parted ways after we announced the brackets for the tournament. It wouldn’t be fair for Solo or Su Yim if we ousted them from the tournament just because you chose to shaft Mary.
Jessicka Havok – It’s business. We weren’t going anywhere as a tag team. I’m better on my own.
The Women’s Division General Manager Gail Kim – Yeah, that’s what Mary said too.
Jessicka Havok – What?
The Women’s Division General Manager Gail Kim – Oh, you thought you were the only person that had the same feelings about this tournament? Mary visited me earlier and she knocked.
Jessicka Havok – Get to the point. What did you say to her?
The Women’s Division General Manager Gail Kim – Listen, I get it. Tag teams break up. And I respect all your records so like I told her, this is what I’m going to do. At Last Rites, we are going to have two wild card matches. Whoever wins those matches will be added to the tournament.
Jessicka Havok – So who am I facing at the pay per view?
The Women’s Division General Manager Gail Kim – Do we really need to go there? I really thought you were bright enough to figure it out.
[ Havok grimaces. ]
Jessicka Havok – Bloody Mary!!!
[ Gail smiles at Havok. ]
The Women’s Division General Manager Gail Kim – You asked for this, not me. Have a great night.
[ Havok storms out of the office as we cut across the arena to where we see the Heartbreakers standing by with Maxwell Shaw. ]
Maxwell Shaw – Ladies, last week you beat a very questionable Jessicka Havok and Bloody Mary when Havok turned on Bloody Mary and attacked her before walking out on her. Tonight, the stakes are much higher as you face S.E.X. for a shot at the Women’s World Tag Team titles at Last Rites in six days against the reigning champions Blue Nation.
Nattie Neidhart – Questionable? We cannot control it if one teammate turns on another. We took advantage of a bad situation that Havok created. Sucks to be them.
Maxwell Shaw – Earlier tonight, we heard from S.E.X. and they pretty much promised Caged Heat the first title shot when they not only beat you tonight; but also beat Blue Nation at Last Rites.
[ Nattie rolls her eyes. ]
Nattie Neidhart – Are they for real? They are handing out title shots and they haven’t won a thing yet. We all know what S.E.X. is full of and it isn’t shit either.
Maxwell Shaw – Please, there are kids watching.
Nattie Neidhart – I know, I know; keep it PG. Listen, S.E.X. is clearly out of their league going into our match tonight; and they can run their suck holes all they want but I promise you there’s no way me and my girls are going to lose to those two sluts.
Maxwell Shaw – Ladies, good luck tonight.
Nattie Neidhart – Oh, and one last thing. When we go on to win the Women’s World Tag Team titles, Caged Heat can get to the back of the line because we won’t be giving them the first title shot. They have to earn like everyone else.
[ The show cuts back across the arena where we see a very smug and grinning Tony Tran dressed in a business suit with the Golden BoyZ and Courtney Cox behind him. ]
“The Million Dollar Man” Tony Tran – So here we are, just six nights away from Last Rites and a shot at the World Tag team titles and what pray tell stands in our way? Who do we look across the ring and see but the Guerillas of Destiny? Gentlemen, the games afoot; and the wrestling God’s have spoken. The Guerillas of Destiny are well, let’s just say; you are a thing of the past. You turned your backs on the Gold Standard only to get your asses tossed out of the Bullet Club? Talk about bad luck. You sold your souls for two watches? If I knew that you guys could be bought out for so cheap, I would have chipped in a few bucks.
[ The Golden BoyZ look at Tran oddly. ]
“The Million Dollar Man” Tony Tran – What? Not to replace you guys. I mean to help us get to the top of the tag team division. Guerillas, we all know how great you’ve guys have been this past year; but it’s over. Without the Gold Standard, without the Bullet Club; what are you two really?
[ Tran smiles evilly. ]
“The Million Dollar Man” Tony Tran – You’re nothen but a couple of guys in guerilla suits. Boys, take a good long look at the future of the tag team division. Soon, very soon; my BoyZ will be draped in gold and the two of you; well let’s be honest, the two of you will just be distant memories in the annals of the Empires history books right there beside the likes of the Diamond Killers and the Elite Legion. Look long and hard boys because what you are seeing beside me is the future of the Empire.
[ The show cuts back to Phillip and Caristico at ringside. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Strong words by Tony Tran as he leads the Golden BoyZ into battle tonight against the former World Tag Team Champions the Guerillas of Destiny who earned this match by beating the Cartel last week.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – You can sense that one team is on the rise and the other is spiraling out of control right now and the team that is spiraling out of control is not the Golden BoyZ, and that’s tough to say when you’re talking about the former World Tag Team Champions and the only team in the division with double digit wins right now.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – They are or were arguably the best team in the division with or without the titles in their possession, but another team that is arguably the best in their division are the Heartbreakers and they are next as they take on SEX for a shot at Blue Nation and the Women’s World Tag Team titles. Harvey old friend, take it away.
Winner gets a Women’s World Tag Team title shot at Last Rites
S.E.X. vs The Heartbreakers
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The following tag team match is set for one fall with a twenty-minute time limit and it is for a shot at the Women’s World Tag Team Championship at Last Rites!!! Making their way to the ring, Indi Hartwell, Shotzi Blackheart and Nattie Neidhart, they are… the Heartbreakers!!!
[ The crowd goes crazy as “New Foundation” by explodes across the arena as Indi, Shotzi and Nattie strut out on stage. They high five each other and walk down the rampway each climbing into the ring. Nattie and Indy each pose on a turnbuckle while Shotzi straddles the ropes between them. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Caristico, these women are hell bent on getting back their World Tag Team titles and tonight they go with Nattie and Shotzi, the two powerhouses and most experienced of the trio as they love to use the “Freebirds Rules” to keep their opponents guessing as to who they will be facing until just moments before the match.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – What more can we say about the former Women’s World Tag Team champions as they come into this match as the number one Contender’s with the best record in the division at ten and three.
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – And their opponents!!! Making their way to the ring being accompanied by “The Don” Joey Ryan, they weigh in at a combined weight of 283 lbs, Katie Forbes and Spice, this is… S.E.X.!!!
[ “Tattooed Angel” rocks the arena as the two women walk out on stage dressed in what appears to be more lingerie than wrestling gear!!! Joey Ryan struts out on stage wearing a skintight black dominatrix outfit just barely holding up his nut sack. They strut down to the ring handing out lollipops to the fans at ringside in the shapes of titties and dicks. For some reason, the fans love them and their playful act. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – I always find myself scratching my head when I say this but here are the former Women’s World Tag Team Champions S.E.X. where it was back at Diamonds are Forever where they dethroned Medusa Complex to become champions. They went on to hold those belts for thirty-five days where they lost their titles in a Fatal Four-way match at the Stable Wars pay per view.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – We can all sit here and talk about how unorthodox S.E.X. are or what they do on their free time, but the history books will always show that these women were champions.
[ Shotzi and Spice start the match off as the referee calls for the bell and Shotzi spears Spice. Shotzi runs into the ropes and hits Spice with a drop kick. Shotzi again runs into the ropes, but this time Joey Ryan reaches up and pulls down the top rope causing Shotzi to crash to the floor in a heap. Ken Peterson steps through the ropes and yells down at Joey Ryan threatening to toss him from ringside if he does that again. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – It didn’t take long for Joey Ryan to get involved in this match. We all knew he was going to be a factor, but this early on just goes to show you how much they fear the Heartbreakers.
[ Spice rolls out under the bottom rope and goes right after Shotzi nailing her with a clothesline. ...1 ...and Joey Ryan sneaks up behind Shotzi, but Indi Hartwell rushes over and nails Joey Ryan with a clothesline as she leaps off the steel ring steps!!! ...2 ...Spice grabs Shotzi and launches her into the steel guardrail. ...3 ...Spice rolls Shotzi back into the ring and follows her back in. Katie Forbes enters the ring and they whip Shotzi into the ropes and hit Shotzi with a double back body drop. Katie leaves the ring. Spice goes for a rolling cutter, but Shotzi blocks it and tags out to Nattie Neidhart. Nattie goes for a springboard clothesline, but Spice counters it with an interceptor superkick. Spice sends Nattie into the corner and tries for a forearm smash, but Nattie ducks out of the way and Spice crashes into the turnbuckle. Nattie goes for a lariat, but Spice counters with a go-behind and nails belly-to-back suplex on Nattie. Spice whips Nattie into the ropes and hits her with a roundhouse kick. Spice then tags out to Katie Forbes. Nattie comes charging in and hits Katie with a big splash. Nattie follows it up with an Inverted DDT on Katie. Nattie is going for the win as she climbs to the top rope and hits a frog splash on Katie. Nattie rolls Katie up as Ken Peterson counts ...1 ...2 ...and Joey Ryan pulls Katies foot under the bottom rope. ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Again Joey Ryan interjects himself into the match for the second time and again Head Referee Ken Peterson admonishes him.
[ Nattie goes for a superkick, but Katie catches her leg and counters it with a legsweep takedown. Katie comes off the top rope with an Asai moonsault down onto Nattie as she goes for the cover and Ken Peterson counts ...1 ...2 ...and Nattie gets her shoulder up!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What a moonsault by Katie Forbes to nearly put Nattie away tonight but the leader of the Heartbreakers just got her shoulders up just at the last second.
[ Katie attempts a slingshot, but Nattie ducks out of the way. Nattie climbs to the top turnbuckle, but Katie throws her to the mat. Katie runs into the ropes, but Nattie goes for a dropkick to the knee, but Katie jumps out of the way. Katie tries for a bulldog, but Nattie throws her off. Nattie climbs to the top rope and nails Katie with a dropkick. Nattie tags out to Shotzi Blackheart. Shotzi and Nattie hit Katie with a double clothesline. Nattie leaves the ring. Shotzi goes for a roundhouse kick, but Katie catches her leg and leg whips her to the mat. Katie attempts a clothesline, but Shotzi counters it with an attempted Crucifix Slam; but Katie blocks it and spins Shotzi around into a sidewalk slam. Katie rolls Shotzi up as Ken Peterson counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Shotzi kicks out!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – What a move by Katie to turn that Crucifix Slam into a sidewalk slam that took a ton out of Shotzi Blackheart.
[ Katie runs into the ropes and hits Shotzi with a running knee strike. Katie drives a fist to the midsection of Shotzi. Katie nails a dropkick from the second rope on Shotzi. Katie goes for a clothesline, but this time Shotzi counters it with a crucifix pin attempt that she failed at just moments ago as she goes for the pin and Ken Peterson counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Katie gets shoulder up!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Nice Crucifix pin attempt by Shotzi and that’s what she attempted a minute ago but paid the price as Katie was able to counter it, but not this time.
[ Shotzi tags out to Nattie Neidhart. Before leaving the ring, Shotzi nails an Asai moonsault on Katie and Nattie hits a frog splash on Katie!!! Nattie rolls Katie up as Ken Peterson counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Joey Ryan pulls the referee out of the ring!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Man, Nattie just got screwed over by Joey Ryan who right now is being screamed at by the Head Referee Ken Peterson.
[ Spice enters the ring and Katie and Spice whip Nattie into the ropes and they hit Nattie with a double kick to the midsection. Spice leaves the ring and Katie delivers an Exploder suplex into the turnbuckles on Nattie. Katie tags out to Spice. Spice and Katie whip Nattie into the ropes and they hit Nattie with a double elbowsmash. Again, Spice and Katie whip Nattie into the ropes and they hit Nattie with a double kick to the midsection.

Spice runs into the ropes and Nattie hits Spice with a back elbow. Nattie throws Spice into the turnbuckle, but Spice reverses it and sends Nattie crashing in. Spice charges in and delivers a corner forearm smash into Nattie. Spice then hits an Exploder suplex on Nattie. Spice climbs to the top rope and hits Nattie with the Froggie Splash (Frog Splash)!!! Spice rolls Nattie up as Ken Peterson counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Nattie shoots her shoulder up off the mat!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Spice went for her money shot and somehow Nattie was able to power out of it. Spice needs to stay right on Nattie and not let up.
[ Spice goes for a clothesline, but Nattie ducks under it and snaps off a neckbreaker on Spice. Nattie rolls up Spice as Ken Peterson counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Spice kicks out!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – What a neckbreaker by Nattie that nearly snapped Spice’s head clean off.
[ Nattie runs into the ropes and Joey Ryan reaches under the ropes and trips Nattie!!! Ken Peterson ejects Joey Ryan from the ringside area and the crowd loves it as they give the Head Referee a standing ovation!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – There you go Ken, toss his ass!!! It’s about time someone bounces his ass!!!
[ Nattie goes for a superkick, but Spice has enough where withal to counter it with a legsweep takedown. Spice makes the desperate tag to Katie. Katie and Spice whip Nattie into the ropes and they hit Nattie with a double kick to the midsection followed by a double DDT!!! Spice leaves the ring as Katie hits the Phoenix Splash on Nattie!!! Spice rolls Nattie up as Ken Peterson counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Indi Hartwell pulls the referee out of the ring!!! Now it’s Indi’s turn to get tossed from the ringside area as this referee has had enough and the crowd gives Ken a second standing ovation!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Now we are going to see a fair match as both Joey Ryan and Indio Hartwell have been ejected!!!
[ Katie mounts Nattie and starts unloading with tough forearm shots and punches. Katie drags Nattie to her feet and hits the Clapback (Snap Double Underhook DDT)!!! Katie goes for the pin as Ken Peterson counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Nattie just barely kicks out in time as Katie's mouth is wide open shocked that wasn’t the end of this match. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Katie can’t believe it right now as she crawls on all fours over to her corner and is asking Spice what to do next like she’s lost out there.
[ Katie tags out to Spice who rushes in and puts Nattie in her new submission hold called the Camel Toes (Camel Clutch on the mat with her legs around her opponent’s waist)!!! Nattie is writhing in pain until she finally submits!!! ]
Time of match: 0:09:23
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The winner of this match by submission, S.E.X.!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – I can’t believe this, S.E.X., just won the match by making Nattie submit!!! Spice and Katie just punched their tickets to Last Rites and a date with Blue Nation!!!
[ Spice and Katie celebrate in the ring when suddenly Delta and Loca walk out from the back and stand at the top of the ramp just looking down at them. Spice and Katie look back up and they know that they have a date with the devil if they manage to beat Blue Nation at the pay per view. ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – You have to believe that come Last Rites, Caged Heat is going to have a very vested interest in the title match. If S.E.X. manages to win, we now know that Caged Heat is going to get the first title shot.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What a match we are going to see at the pay per view and right now Maxwell Shaw is standing by with the Women’s World Tag Team Champions Blue Nation. Let’s go to the back and hear what the champions have to say just six nights away from defending their titles against Spice and Katie Forbes.
[ The videotron comes on as it shows Maxwell Shaw standing beside Charli Evans and Jessica Troy of Blue Nation. ]
Maxwell Shaw – Ladies, first off congratulations on your huge win back at Climax over the Heartbreakers; but the challengers are lining up fast and furious as we have just learned that Spice and Katie Forbes will be your challengers at Last Rites as they just defeated the Heartbreakers to earn that title shot.
Four Time Women’s World Tag Team Champion Charli Evans – S.E.X.? Again? Ladies, and I use that word very loosely; aren’t you tired of finding yourselves on the losing end time after time?
Maxwell Shaw – This will be the fourth time that the two of you have met in the ring and right now you and Jessica have a two to one lead head-to-head.
Women’s World Tag Team Champion Jessica Troy – And soon to be three and one after we kick their asses Sunday night. Look at us, there’s no way they can beat us. I have the best tag team partner in Charli Evans that the Empire has ever seen.
Maxwell Shaw – Well, they did beat Medusa Complex to win the Women’s World Tag Team titles and just this very night they beat the former champions the Heartbreakers to earn this title shot.
Four Time Women’s World Tag Team Champion Charli Evans – We all know the road that they took to get here and we all know that Joey Ryan had a huge hand in getting this title shot.
[ Charli is interrupted as Jessica McKay and Cassie Lee walks onto the set. Charli and Jessica get very defensive ready for a fight if need be. ]
Women’s World Tag Team Champion Jessica Troy – What the hell do you want?
[ Jessica puts her hands up showing that she’s not here for a fight. ]
Jessica McKay – We come in peace. We don’t want a fight.
Four Time Women’s World Tag Team Champion Charli Evans – Then you better walk away then because we have nothing to say to you.
Cassie Lee – Look, we know that you’re facing S.E.X. at the pay per view; and we also know that Caged Heat’s in their back pocket.
Women’s World Tag Team Champion Jessica Troy – We don’t care about Caged Heat.
Jessica McKay – But you should. Do you really think that Caged Heat isn’t going to do something stupid at the pay per view just to make sure they get that title shot S.E.X. promised them? Don’t be stupid.
Four Time Women’s World Tag Team Champion Charli Evans – And let me guess, the two of you can help us with that?
[ Cassie smiles. ]
Cassie Lee – Of course we can help you. We will watch your backs and all we ask in return is the same thing that S.E.X. agreed to give Caged Heat.
[ Charli chuckles. ]
Four Time Women’s World Tag Team Champion Charli Evans – So let me get this right, you’ll watch our backs if we give you two the next title shot?
[ The Mean Girls nod their head in unison and smile at Charli and Jessica. The two champions look at each other and nod in agreement. ]
Four Time Women’s World Tag Team Champion Charli Evans – Fine, if we win you two will get the next title shot. But you have to make sure Caged Heat doesn’t interfere in our match at all.
[ Jessica and Cassie clap their hands looking giddy. ]
Jessica McKay – Don’t worry. We’ve got your backs. We promise.
[ Charli and Jessica walk off as we cut to the dressing room of Tama Tonga and Tanga Loa; the Guerillas of Destiny. ]
Tama Tonga – Tony Tran, you think we are things of the past? Well guess again big mouth, we aren’t just coming to beat your BoyZ asses, we’re here to shove our boots right up your ass too. Talk to me Tanga.
Tanga Loa – Travis Blake, you run your mouth too damn much. We fucked you over? We were the disappointments of the Bullet Club? Fool, what have you done since you lost the US title to Tank? What have you done since we lost the World Six-man Tag Team titles to Edge Legacy? I’ll tell you what you’ve done, nothen but run your damn mouth.
Tama Tonga – Travis, good leaders lead by example. You’re no leader. You’re just a bitch with a big mouth.
Tanga Loa – Yeah, we took those watches; because if you’re as good as you proclaim to be, then Godzilla should have been a walk in the park. The problem with you is, your ego is bigger than your talent. You aint that good and it shows.
Tama Tonga – The biggest mistake wasn’t joining the Bullet Club it was leaving the Gold Standard. At least Stone had our backs. At least Stone trusted us. You’re nothen but a little bitch.
Tanga Loa – Golden BoyZ, we are pissed right now and it’s a bad time to be across the ring from us when we are pissed. You two clowns think that you can beat us? Let us tell you what the history books say about the two of you. Always the Guerillas bitches!!!
[ The show swings back to the Women’s Division General Manager Gail Kim’s office as the Women’s World Champion Amber Nova walks in and sees Reverend Azazel standing there with a shit eating grin on his face. ]
The Women’s World Champion “The Perfect 10” Amber Nova – Looks like the gangs all here, let’s get this over with.
[ Gail slides a contract across the desk at Amber. ]
The Women’s Division General Manager Gail Kim – All I need is your signature and the match at Last Rites is all set.
[ Amber grabs the contract and glances through it quickly before looking over at Azazel. ]
The Women’s World Champion “The Perfect 10” Amber Nova – What’s the matter, Shanna afraid to show her face herself; that she needed to send her lap dog?
[ Azazel chuckles and smiles. ]
Reverend Azazel – Shanna will deal with you in good time, now please; put pen to paper and sign the contract like a good dear.
The Women’s World Champion “The Perfect 10” Amber Nova – Call me dear again and I’ll ram this pen up your ass.
[ Gail stands up. ]
The Women’s Division General Manager Gail Kim – That’s enough. Amber, sign the contract and it’ll finalize the world title match for Sunday night.
[ Amber grabs the pen and signs the contract before tossing it back across the desk at Gail. ]
The Women’s World Champion “The Perfect 10” Amber Nova – Azazel, you go back and tell Shanna that when she shows up Sunday night; she is going to quickly realize that she’s way out of her league.
[ Azazel smiles and chuckles. ]
Reverend Azazel – That’s funny Amber. She told me to say the same thing to you.
[ Amber is fuming as she storms out of the office. The show cuts back to the announcers desk. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Talk about a number of volatile situations going on right now. One being the Guerillas and Travis Blake, and the other being Amber Nova and Shanna Furguson.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – As far as Amber and Shanna goes, it all comes to a head this Sunday night at Last Rights as Amber’s World title is on the line against the Women’s National Champion. This should be an incredible match. As far as the Guerillas go, we have not seen the end of this feud between Travis Blake and his former friends the Guerillas of Destiny. Travis is cleaning house right now in the Bullet Club with the ousting of both the Mean Girls and the Guerillas. I have to wonder how he’s going to rebuild that group or are they all done?
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Knowing Travis, he’s already got them replaced before they were kicked out. Those men that attacked the Guerillas are still out there hiding in the shadows. It’s just a matter of time before we see them again. Folks, it’s time for the World Tag Team Number One Contender’s match as the Golden BoyZ take on the Guerillas of Destiny. This one should be good. Let’s get right back to the action. Harvey, take it away buddy.
Winner gets a World Tag Team title shot at Last Rites
The Golden BoyZ vs The Guerillas of Destiny
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The following tag team match is set for one fall with a twenty-minute time limit and it is for a shot at the World Tag Team Championship at Last Rites!!! Making their way to the ring weighing in at a combined weight of 439 lbs., they are Tama Tonga and Tanga Loa; this is… the Guerillas of Destiny!!
[ The sold-out crowd goes nuts booing as “The Firing Squad” by No Name Tim rocks the arena as the two Samoan warrior’s storm down to the ring and dive under the bottom rope in unison popping to their feet and posing on the ropes. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – And here are the Guerillas of Destiny who come into this match hot off an Extreme Rules match that they won over the Cartel last week pushing their record to thirteen and eight and are the current the number two contender to the Zealots tag team titles.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Since losing the tag team titles last spring to the Chain Gang, the Guerillas have yet to get their feet back under them and regain that magic that won them the titles. Tonight, they have a shot at getting those titles back if they can get past Tony Tran and his Golden BoyZ.
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – And their opponents!!! Making their way to the ring being accompanied by their manager “The Million Dollar Man” Tony Tran, they weigh in at a combined weight of 393 lbs., Jake and Dave Anderson; they are… The Golden BoyZ!!
[ The crowd goes crazy booing as "Let's Go All the Way" by Insane Clown Posse rocks the arena as the two brothers strut out on stage and make their way down to the ring with Tony Tran dressed in a suit and sunglasses close behind them. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – And here’s the Tony Tran led Golden BoyZ who earned this spot in this match when they defeated the Lynch Mob a few weeks ago.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – The Golden BoyZ come into this match as the number four contenders with a seven and nine record. These guys have been in a number of world title matches this past year, but have yet to break through and capture the gold. Tonight, they can earn another world title shot, but the Guerillas have the same thing in mind. Everything is on the line for both teams tonight.
[ Tanga and Jake Anderson choose to start the match off as the referee calls for the bell and Tanga Loa explodes into action driving a back elbow into Jake Anderson. Tanga Loa tries to send Jake Anderson into the turnbuckle, but Jake Anderson reverses it. Jake Anderson drives a shoulder into Tanga Loa. Jake Anderson delivers an open hand chop on Tanga Loa.

They have been terrorizing the Caribbean and Central America for months and now they are in Travis Blake’s back pocket?! Are they the newest members of the Bullet Club? Are they the ones that attacked the Guerillas two weeks ago? So many unanswered questions!!!
"The Face of the Empire" Travis Blake – Boys, boys, boys, did yah miss me?
[ The Guerillas get up and make their way toward the ring ropes glaring up at Travis and his two hired guns. ]
"The Face of the Empire" Travis Blake – Yeah, I think not. So, now that I have your undivided attention; let me introduce to you your replacements in the Bullet Club. Two men that I know will do anything and everything I tell them to do whenever I tell them to do it...
[ He pauses and smiles. ]
"The Face of the Empire" Travis Blake – ...and the guys that whooped your asses a few weeks ago, 25 to Life!!!

[ Back in the ring, Tony Tran climbs in and raises Jake and Dave’s arms in victory as he has a big toothy grin on his face. Back at the top of the ramp, Travis Blake smiles as he nods to his two new henchmen. ]
"The Face of the Empire" Travis Blake – That’s a wrap, boys. Let’s leave these losers to cry in their own beer.
[ Travis and 25 to Life walk off the stage as the Guerillas watch pissed off. ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – I have to believe that these men will meet again very soon down the road and there will be hell to pay for what they did to them.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Another screw job by that son of a bitch Travis Blake costing the Guerillas another match. At some point those boys are gonna get their hands on Travis and there’s gonna be hell to pay. Folks, let’s go to the back where Maxwell Shaw is standing by with Felix Escobar and his Cartel.
[ The videotron comes on as it shows Felix Escobar standing next to Maxwell Shaw with Mil Muertes, Blood Hunter and Pedro Supremo standing behind him. ]
Maxwell Shaw – Felix, in just six nights at Last Rites; you will be forced to face your brother...
[ Felix wags his finger at Maxwell. ]
“The Raven” Felix Escobar – Please, please Maxwell; he is my step-brother.
Maxwell Shaw – Very well, your step-brother. But that doesn’t dispute the fact that the winner of this match will not only walk to the pay window, but they will also get a roster spot.
[ And Maxwell points right at Felix. ]
Maxwell Shaw – Your roster spot to be exact.
[ Felix chuckles and looks smug. ]
“The Raven” Felix Escobar – And what makes anyone think that he has the ability to beat me? Is it because he was the United States Heavyweight Champion? NO. Is it because he formed the first Cartel? NO. He failed at being the US champion. He failed at being the leader of the Cartel. For years my brother has been marred with failure after failure after failure.
[ He pulls his suit coat tight. ]
“The Raven” Felix Escobar – I am the future of the Cartel. I will lead my father’s cartel, his company, his legacy into the future. And my brother, my dear, dear brother; he will be left with nothing.
[ Felix motions for Pedro to step up. ]
Pedro Supremo – Maverick, you and Godzilla have made a joke of the Empire. Tonight, I notch my first victory with your blood. The jokes on you fly boy!!!
[ The show cuts back to Phillip and Caristico at the announcer’s table. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Strong words coming out of the Cartel, but you cannot tell me that Felix isn’t shitting his pants right now knowing that he could lose his roster spot back to his half-brother Tito at the pay per view.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – He’s absolutely shitting his pants for just that reason and the fact that daddy is coming too. He’s got the full-blown shits.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, we have not seen Go-D since his loss at Blackout, but here he is tonight in all his glory!!! Go-D is back!!!
[ “Unforgiven” by Creed starts up and the crowd seems shocked as Go-D comes walking out and stops and looks over the crowd. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Go-D has returned for the first time since his defeat at the hands of Tank Edge a couple weeks ago.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico - I'm sure that was a tough loss for him and I'm curious as what he has to say about his career coming to an end.
[ Go-D stays at the top of the ramp and has a microphone. ]
Go-D - I'm not here to talk about Tank Edge ending my career, because it's not time to dwell on the past. And maybe Tank was right, it isn't my time anymore, it's probably not his time anymore either and he'll soon come to realize that. But that's not important right now, right now I want to talk about the future, and how sometimes our past can haunt our futures. When I beat Prophet and took his world title and then his precious book, and apparently; I unleashed a not too deeply buried psychosis within his mind. Now, he's decided to come after my protégé Conner and try and mess with him. He kidnapped his girlfriend, forced him into a couple title matches, screwed my tag team out of their belts and convinced one of them to walk away and quit and he cost Conner his shot at winning the emperors crown tournament. Now if I had been around, maybe I could have helped Conner keep his cool. I would have made sure Havok wasn't interfering in the tag title match. I failed my men by not being here. But I wasn't at home crying into my pillow over my career being over. I was out exploring and searching for new talent and finding a new attitude for Legacy to go forth. So now, I present to you; with his new manager Texas Worley, “The Cowboy from Hell” the Empire TV champion, Conner Edge!!!
[ “Cowboys from Hell” starts up as smoke rises and out walks a buxom blond women dressed in skimpy leather. She falls to her knees and spreads her arms as Conner Edge, now with a shaved head and trimmed beard walks out behind her. He holds his TV title high and Texas leans into him. He places a hand on her shoulder as Go-D smiles. ]
Go-D - New girl, new look but the same bad ass who's focused and ready for you Prophet. Now, with Shogun packing his bags and heading home, I didn't want to leave these guys a man short, but like I said, I'd been scouting for talent. I found this guy in a flea market wrestling for pennies, but he was without a doubt one of the best talents I've ever seen. And going forward, with Rasputin to guide him, he will become a major player in the world of wrestling. I give you, INOSUKE!!!
[ “Rumbling” by SiM starts up and out walks a handsome and muscular young Japanese man, he's followed by Rasputin Ito wearing a Titan mask. They pose between Conner and Go-D. ]
Go-D - This is the new Legacy. This is the future of wrestling and I'm here to guide them to greatness.
[ Scene goes backstage where we see Mitch Fierce and his girlfriend Aoife Valkyrie in street clothes exiting the dressing room Mitch with his arm around Aoife as "Pure Gold" Alexander Stone walks up to Mitch and Aoife. Mitch smirks at Alex. ]
World Six-man Tag Team Champion “The Fierce One" Mitch Fierce - You were robbed of a clean win last week. Travis just couldn’t keep his nose out of your business. He clocked you a good one which I know you’re pissed off about. You want to face the best in this tournament, leave no doubt what Travis did he has to pay for tonight, Alex
World Six-man Tag Team Champion "Pure Gold" Alexander Stone - I’m going to break his bony ass in two! When I’m finished with Travis tonight nobody is going to be able to recognize him.
World Six-man Tag Team Champion “The Fierce One" Mitch Fierce - Fuck Travis. Fuck him up Stone. Shut his damn mouth. Do everybody a favor and kick this assholes ass
[ Mitch looks into the camera. ]
World Six-man Tag Team Champion “The Fierce One" Mitch Fierce - Fuck you, Steve. You aren’t ready to face me. You aren’t ready for any title shot let alone a World Heavyweight Championship shot. You’re nothing but a lucky chump that got in because two dropped out. You’re on the train tracks Steve and I’m going to run over you and prove that you didn’t belong in this tournament. I’m coming for you Steve your luck just ran the fuck out. Its go time. You don’t have what it takes to beat me, Steve. I destroy guys like you. The beast unleashed!
[ Mitch walks away with Aoife as we cut to the back and see Maverick is watching TV coverage of the Ukraine-Russian invasion when a figure walks behind him. ]
The United States Heavyweight and World Cruiserweight Champion Godzilla Sanchez - Dude, you can't keep watching this stuff.
World Six-man Tag Team Champion “Lieutenant” Maverick Edge - I spent the better part of my military experience escorting spy planes over Russian installments, it's hard not to feel invested. Plus, I got Ukrainian heritage.
The World Heavyweight Champion “The Ring General” Tank Edge - No you don't. Your dad's Irish- English and your mom's German-whore, or Welsh whatever.
World Six-man Tag Team Champion “Lieutenant” Maverick Edge - Huh, didn't know that.
The World Heavyweight Champion “The Ring General” Tank Edge - She often said your dad looked Canadian... although fuck if I know what that means. Godzilla, why are you dressed like Baby from Dirty Dancing.
[ We pull the camera back and see Godzilla in the full Baby get up. ]
World Six-man Tag Team Champion “Lieutenant” Maverick Edge - Does this mean?
The United States Heavyweight and World Cruiserweight Champion Godzilla Sanchez - Oh Yeah!!!
World Six-man Tag Team Champion “Lieutenant” Maverick Edge - The return of EMPIRESHOP.COM commercials!!!!
[ We cut to Godzilla and Z.O.E., who's dressed as Patrick Swayze, as they dance on the stage. Maverick and Aoife are singing the song as ZOE leaps off the stage and dances down the aisle. ]
World Six-man Tag Team Champion “Lieutenant” Maverick Edge - Just remember, you’re the one thing.
Aoife Valkyrie - I can't get enough of. So, tell me something.
[ ZOE stands in the aisle and looks to Godzilla, he nods and runs down the aisle. ]
Together - THIS COULD BE LOVE! BECAUSE, I'VE HAD THE TIME OF MY LIFE, AND I'VE BEEN THROUGH EVERY OPEN DOOR, ITS THE TRUTH AND I OWE IT ALL TO YOU.
[ Aoife Valkyrie and Maverick hold hands as they sing that last part as Mitch Fierce walks in. ]
World Six-man Tag Team Champion “The Fierce One" Mitch Fierce - What is with the music I'm trying to nap.
[ He sees Maverick and Aoife holding hands and lets out a primal scream. Godzilla and ZOE stop dancing and stare as Mitch grabs Maverick and lifts him over his head. ]
Aoife Valkyrie - No Mitchell, I love him.
[ Maverick gives her a concerned look and she just smiles and laughs as Mitch tosses Maverick out a window. We find him flying off the edge of a cliff. He puts his glasses on. ]
World Six-man Tag Team Champion “Lieutenant” Maverick Edge - Why am I not panicked you ask, it's because new to Empireshop.com is Empire pillow buddies.
[ Maverick lands in a splash and up in the air shoot pillow buddies or Alex Stone, Godzilla, Travis Blake, Tank Edge, Aoife, Millie McKenzie. As Maverick lays on the ground he looks to the camera. ]
World Six-man Tag Team Champion “Lieutenant” Maverick Edge - And for all you anime freaks, that aren't those freaky bizarre Lolli lovers, new sexy pillow cases
[ The screen shows pillow cases of the male and female rosters mostly naked on them. ]
World Six-man Tag Team Champion “Lieutenant” Maverick Edge - And new shirts like Maverick Edge: The top Gun, Godzilla and ZOE: Crazy love, Tank Edge- Go-D killer, Travis Blake means Bathroom Break and more at Empireshop.com.
[ We cut back to the stage area as Mitch is now singing, a little off key, with Aoife. ]
World Six-man Tag Team Champion “The Fierce One" Mitch Fierce and Aoife Valkyrie - I HAD THE TIME OF MY LIFE, AND I OWE IT ALL TO EMPIRESHOP.COM
[ The scene cuts back to the announce table as we see the two announcers laughing. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – All I have to say is wow. It amazes me every time we see one of these EMPIRESHOP.COM segments and the awesome work that all the men and women put in to bring us these segments.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – It just goes to show you that our superstars here in the Empire are more than just wrestlers, they truly are entertainers in their own right. But let’s get serious here for a moment. The Cartel is on their heels right now as we know for certain that the leader of the Cartel will be showing up at the pay per view. Tonight, Pedro Supremo has the undaunting task to face Maverick Edge just six nights away from taking on Godzilla for the World Cruiserweight title. Both men need this win tonight for many different reasons.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – That’s right. As much as Godzilla and Maverick are blood brothers, they are going to take that match at the pay per view very seriously. It’s time to get back to the ring. Harvey, it’s all yours; partner.
Pedro Supremo vs Maverick
“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 hailing from Tijuana, Mexico; he weighs in at 210 lbs, this is... Pedro Supremo!!!
[ The crowd goes nuts booing as “Realeza” by Jim Johnston blares across the arena as the Mexican sensations Pedro Supremo of the Cartel make his way out onto the stage. He walks down the rampway before diving into the ring under the bottom rope and pops up onto the middle rope posing for the sold-out crowd. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, Pedro Supremo comes into this match still looking for his first solo win here in the Empire and if you listen to what this young man had to say, he plans on doing it at the expense of Maverick tonight.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – I’m going to be honest, the two biggest mistakes this young man made was getting out of the tag team division and listening to Felix when he stabbed his tag team partner in the back. Los Vipers was a nice young tag team, but once Felix got into his head it was like some sort of mind control.
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – And his opponent. Coming down the aisle, from Anaheim, California and weighing in at 180lbs, this is “Lieutenant” Maverick Edge!!!
[ “Highway to the Danger Zone” blares through the arena as he crowd goes wild. Maverick walks out and poses on the ramp as the winds blow his scarf around and he scans the crowd. He suddenly goes running to the ring as the pyro blows on the ramp behind him like he's trying to outrun a bomber, he suddenly flies in the air over the top rope and lands on his feet. He stands mid-ring and gives the camera a big thumbs up in a smile as two more bomb blasts go off behind him. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Maverick also comes into this match tonight looking for his first victory, but what is even more important tis that he gets out of this match healthy as he has a huge Cruiserweight title match in just six nights against his best friend Godzilla.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Godzilla asked for forgiveness and this match was one of Maverick’s stipulations. That, and Godzilla couldn’t defend himself in his match last week against Steve Scott in the first round of the Emperor’s Crown Tournament. It didn’t end well for Godzilla as he took the DQ loss when Maverick came to his best friends aid stopping Steve Scott from brutalizing his best friend.
[ The referee calls for the bell as the two men walk to the center of the ring and butt heads trying to show each other up. Pedro lashes out and slaps Maverick across the face and then punches Maverick. Pedro attempts an uppercut, but Maverick blocks it and open hand chops Pedro right back and it echoes across the arena. Pedro’s chest is bright red as blood blisters start to form. Pedro strikes back and knife edge chops Maverick followed by a punch that pisses Maverick right off. Maverick drives a European uppercut into Pedro and then attempts an enzuigiri, but Pedro ducks out of the way sending Maverick crashing to the mat. Pedro goes for a back body drop, but Maverick slides off Pedro’s back and lands on his feet going for a front facelock; but Pedro lashes out and grabs the ropes!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Nice counter by Maverick to float over out of that back body drop and lock on a facelock for the attempted submission.
[ Maverick sends Pedro into the corner and drives a corner forearm smash into him. Maverick takes a step or two back and then charges in with a high knee right into Pedro’s gut. Maverick slams Pedro Supremo to the mat and covers him up as Yali Sapphire counts ...1 ...and Pedro shoots his shoulder off the mat. ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Quick cover by Maverick as that high knee just drove all the air out of Pedro’s sails. The young man is gasping for air right now on the mat.
[ Maverick sets Pedro up for the Top Gun (Falcon Arrow), but just as he gets Pedro off his feet; Steve Scott dives under the bottom rope and blasts Maverick Edge in the back with a steel chair shot as Yali Sapphire frantically calls for the bell tossing the match out!!! ]
Time of match: 0:01:43
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The winner of this match by disqualification, Maverick Edge!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What the hell is this psychopath doing?
[ Steve Scott continues to beat down Maverick with the steel chair until it nearly bends in half screaming at him... ]
“Bloodlust” Steve Scott – You stuck your nose in my match? That was your mistake!!! You served Godzilla up to me on a silver platter just to attack me from behind? How does it feel Maverick? How does it feel to be the victim of a sneak attack? How does it feel to get your ass beaten by a better man?! I’m going to break you yah son of a bitch!!!
[ The crowd explodes to their feet as “Ladies and Gentlemen” by Saliva hits over the PA system as Mitch Fierce rushes down to the ring followed by Godzilla and Aoife Valkyrie!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Here comes the rest of the gang!!!
[ Steve Scott looks up and sees the crew coming and he slams the busted chair on the mat egging Mitch to bring it. ]
“Bloodlust” Steve Scott – Come on you son of a bitch!!! You want a piece of me I’ll bust your ass too!!!
[ Mitch dives under the bottom rope sliding into the ring and pops right back up going right at Steve Scott. Steve Scott swings the steel chair and Mitch ducks under the shot and hits the back ropes. Steve Scott turns just in time to get speared right out of his boots!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What a hellacious spear by Mitch Fierce that just folded Steve Scott right in half!!!
[ Mitch grabs the top ring ropes and shakes them like a mad man before turning toward the referee begging for him to start the match!!!
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Talk about backfiring right in Steve Scott’s face right now as shit just went sideways for him!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – He’s going to wish that he never touched Maverick when Mitch gets done with his ass. If there’s one thing that Mitch is, it’s loyal to the Three Best Friends!!!
In a Second Round Emperors Crown Tournament Match
Mitch Fierce vs Steve Scott
[ Yali Sapphire calls for the bell as Steve Scott staggers to his feet and Mitch destroys him again with another spear!!! The crowd is going out of their minds as Mitch sets Steve Scott up and wipes him out with the Fierce Bomb (a spinebuster set-up into a fierce Sit-out Powerbomb)!!! Mitch rolls Steve up as Yali Sapphire counts ...1 ...2 ...3!!! ]
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The winner of this match by pin-fall, Mitch Fierce!!!
Time of match: 0:00:08
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Not that I thought that Steve Scott had much of a chance against Mitch Fierce anyway, but this assault was out right embarrassing for him as the match lasted what, ten seconds?
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Eight seconds to be exact. I think we Mitch Fierce just set a new record.
[ Godzilla and Aoife tends to Maverick as the Forgotten are led out on stage led by Reverend Azazel. Aric Cannon, Marc Fulton and Jake Owens look pissed as Azazel tells them to hold back watching as Mitch rolls Steve Scott out of the ring dumping him to the floor disrespectfully. ]
Reverend Azazel – OK, alright; point taken. But we will not forget what you did this day Mitch. The Forgotten will never forget. You wanted our attention, you got it.
[ Mitch smiles, and then flips Azazel off and now it’s the rest of the Forgotten that have to hold Azazel back from rushing the ring and starting a fight with a man twice his size!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Reverend Azazel better think twice about walking into Mitch Fierces world. That man has chewed up everyone that has climbed into that ring.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Whether it’s Alexander Stone or Travis Blake, the finals in the tournament is going to be incredible as Mitch Fierce just punched his ticket to Last Rites. I cannot wait to see the main event tonight to find out just who Mitch is going to face at the pay per view.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Ladies and gentlemen, our main event is just moments away and it’s going to be a blockbuster. Right now, Cindy Meyers is standing by with the former World Champion Alexander Stone. Let’s listen in.
[ The videotron comes on as it shows Cindy Meyers standing next to Alexander Stone who is in his ring gear and looks amped up for this huge match. ]
Cindy Meyers – Alex, thank you for taking a few minutes before your big match tonight. Let’s talk about Travis Blake.
[ Alex puts his hand up stopping her. ]
World Six-man Tag Team Champion "Pure Gold" Alexander Stone – Travis Blake? I’m sick of hearing that piece of shit run his mouth. He keeps yabbing about so much shit it doesn’t even make any sense. Travis, let me give you some advice kid; try staying on topic. Oh, and by the way, you didn’t put me on the shelf; the Guerillas did. Don’t take fucking credit for not having the balls to do it yourself.
Cindy Meyers – It seems that you still have some anger toward him for what he did, breaking up the Gold Standard?
World Six-man Tag Team Champion "Pure Gold" Alexander Stone – Angry? No, I’m not angry. I’m over it. I’ve had months to digest it. To swallow what they all did to me. Tonight, I put what they did behind me by destroying Travis Blake once and for all. This match isn’t about the Emperor’s Crown Tournament as much as it’s about shutting that little bitch up once and for all.
Cindy Meyers – If you can beat Travis tonight, your next opponent will be also your tag team partner Mitch Fierce. Is that in the back of your mind going into this match tonight?
World Six-man Tag Team Champion "Pure Gold" Alexander Stone – Listen, I told Mitch weeks ago that I wanted to beat the best the Empire could line up in my way. I begged Mitch Fierce to not give up his spot to Felix Escobar because I wanted to beat the best. Mitch and I are on a collision course. I look forward to that match.
Cindy Meyers – Alex, good luck tonight. Guys, back to you.
[ The show cuts back to Phillip and Caristico at the announcers desk. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – You get the feeling this is more about revenge than advancing in the tournament?
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – You know as well as I do that Alex wants to not just beat Travis, but he wants to destroy him. To end this young man’s career just like he tried to do to him months ago and nearly succeeded at. I would hate to be Travis tonight.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Ladies and Gentlemen, what a match we are about to see. The last time Travis Blake and Alexander Stone squared off it was at Summer Stampede back in August where we witnessed the destruction of the Gold Standard and the birth of the Bullet Club. Now, six months later; these two men clash in a second-round match in the Emperor’s Crown Tournament. Let’s get back to the action as Harvey Weinstein is ready to call this incredible match.
In a Second Round Emperors Crown Tournament Match
Travis Blake vs Alexander Stone
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The following is a second round Emperors Crown Tournament match and it is set for one fall with a twenty-minute time limit!! Making his way to the ring hailing from Phoenix, Arizona; he weighs in at 251 lbs. and he is one-third of the World Six-man Tag Team Champions; 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. 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, taking off his jacket and sunglasses off and tossing them to the floor. He mounts the middle turnbuckle and shows off his belt as the fans go nuts!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Here’s the man who captured the Worlds Heavyweight championship after the Empire relaunched back in January. Stone is one of the toughest men on the roster with a fourteen and four record and he’s currently ranked number four in the standings.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – In my opinion, Alexander Stone has been one of the four cornerstones of this company since the Empire reopened. The remaining men in this tournament should be afraid, very afraid of what Stone can do.
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – And his opponent. Making his way to the ring being accompanied by Paul Heyman, he hails from Detroit, MI and weighs in at 175 lbs, this is "The Face of the Empire”, this is… Travis Blake!!!
[ The crowd boos as “Scars that I'm Hiding" by Ashes to New rocks the arena as Travis walks out on stage as Paul Heyman walks closely behind him as they make their way down to the ring!!! Travis climbs in the ring and mounts the middle turnbuckle raising his fist in the air high overhead as Heyman claps for him at ringside. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – It’s incredible as one loss separates these two men and it’s that loss back at Summer Stampede that haunts Stone’s very soul. Tonight, Travis Blake walks into this match attempting to prove to the world that he’s the top star in the Empire, not Stone.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – It’s going to take a miracle to change everyone’s minds about what a jackass this guy has been over the last nine months. My hope for him tonight is that Stone takes his time beating his ass. I wanna see a long-drawn-out ass kicking before he pins him.
[ The referee calls for the bell to start the match and Stone goes right after Blake, who backs up and ducks his head through the ropes, demanding the referee keep Stone back! Stone tries to squeeze past the official to get his hands on Blake only to receive a thumb to the eyes that goes unseen by the referee! The crowd boos as Stone staggers away, trying to regain his vision and here comes Blake, clotheslining Stone in the back of the head knocking him down! Blake unloads with a series of stomps before dragging Stone to his feet and then taking him over again with a snapmare. Stone sits upright as Blake hits the ropes and then comes rocketing back delivering the Weapon X (the Last Shot)!!! Blake goes for the early cover ...1 ...2 ...and Stone powers out!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Travis cannot believe it as Stone just kicked out of the Weapon X!!! You can count on one hand the number of people that have done that.
[ Blake switches things up into a side headlock, grinding it in as the referee gets right in there to ask if Stone wants to give it up. Stone starts feeding off the energy of the crowd to battle his way back to a vertical base, fighting back with some elbows to the ribs; but when he tries to pull free and run at the ropes, Blake grabs a handful of tights to pull Stone back towards him, hooking him up and dropping Stone with a belly-to-back suplex! Blake looks for another cover, pressing his forearm into Stone’s face and the referee counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Stone kicks out!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Travis is pounding his fists on the mat, clearly frustrated that Stone keeps kicking out. Alex has yet to build any momentum in this match.
[ Blake shoots the referee a pissed off glance before dragging Stone up again, dishing out some open hand chops to the chest to back Stone into the corner. Blake grabs Stones arm and looks for an Irish whip, but Stone reverses and charges in after Blake, only to get back body dropped up and over the top rope; and Stone somehow lands on the apron blocking an attempted right hook from Blake before firing off a shot of his own that sends Blake staggering away! Stone leaps to the top rope and delivers a springboard clothesline that takes Blake down! Both superstars get back to their feet, with Stone landing another clothesline and then a third in succession! Blake is on spaghetti legs as he gets up and rests against the ropes, only to receive a fourth clothesline that sends him crashing to the floor! Paul Heyman runs over and tries to help Travis to his feet as Stone watches and waits as Blake to get up before hitting the ropes with and diving off with a car crash crossbody that wipes out both Travis and Paul Heyman!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What the hell are we seeing right now? Alexander Stone has taken to the skies and he just obliterated Travis and Heyman!!!
[ Stone gets back to his feet dragging Blake up and throwing him back inside the ring! Stone climbs back up onto the apron and heads to the corner climbing up, but then Blake suddenly kip-ups back to his feet and connects with a vicious enziguri!!! Stone is rocked as Blake climbs up after him, hooking Stone up for a superplex! Travis tries to lift Stone up, but Stone blocks it before countering with a super gordbuster, dropping Blake chest-first onto the mat! The crowd goes wild as Stone climbs down and hits Blake with a pumphandle powerbomb!!! Stone goes for the cover ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Blake kicks out!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – What a kickout by Travis Blake as the entire ring shook from the impact of that nasty powerbomb!!!
[ Stone drags Blake up and unloads with forearm shots leaves Blake dangling off the ropes. Stone goes for an Irish whip, but Blake holds onto the top rope with his free arm. Stone tries for a second time, but yet again; Blake blocks! Stone fires off a few more forearms before whipping Blake into the ropes and then lowering his head but Blake leaps over and counters with a Canadian Destroyer!!! Stone drags himself over into the corner, but Blake follows up with a running double knee smash to the chest! Blake drags Stone back to the center of the ring and lifts him only to drive him back down with a shoulder breaker!!! Blake goes for the cover as the referee counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Stone kicks out again! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What a match we are seeing so far as Travis has taken control for most of the match tonight. You can tell he’s done his homework coming into this match.
[ Blake can’t believe it, complaining to the referee that his count is too slow; before dragging Stone back up and hooks Stone up for a vertical suplex but Stone drives Blake back-first into the corner, driving in several shoulder shots into Blake to free himself before staggering and then comes charging back in looking for a corner clothesline, but Blake ducks out of the way and Stone crashes into the turnbuckles! Stone drops to one knee as Travis delivers another Weapon X (the Last Shot)!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – What a shot to the head of Alexander Stone as Travis Blake just hit his second Weapon X in this match!!!
[ Blake doesn’t go for the cover as he slides out under the bottom rope and slowly scaling the corner! Blake reaches the top turnbuckle, steadying himself and then dives off going for a Macho Man style elbow drop; but Stone rolls out of the way at the last second and Travis crashes and burns on the mat!!! Both men stagger back to their feet and Blake takes a wild swing back at Stone but Stone ducks the shot and nails him with a belly-to-belly suplex! Blake drags himself over and rests against the bottom rope, just as Stone gets momentum off the far ropes and drives a huge knee right into Blakes head!!! Stone drags Blake back to the center of the ring and goes for the cover as the referee counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Blake just gets his shoulder up!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – My God what a horrific knee shot right to Travis’ face as his head snapped back from the impact!!!
[ Stone drags Blake back up, hooking him from behind and looking for another suplex; but Blake rolls through it and comes off the far ropes like a rocket right at Stone who ducks out of the way and Travis wipes out the referee with a diving crossbody!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – You have to give Stone credit for seeing that coming and reacting so quickly, but Travis just took out the referee and that does not bode well for either man.
[ The referee is out cold as Stone turns around only to have Blake try for a low blow kick, but Stone catches his leg shaking his head and wagging his finger at Travis!!! ]
“Pure Gold” Travis Blake – I don’t think so you son of a bitch!!!
[ Stone flips Blake up and over in a 360° spin and just as Travis lands on his feet again, Stone wipes him out with a clothesline!!! The crowd is going nuts as Stone drags Travis to his feet and sets up for the Stonebreaker (suplex lift into a spinning sidewalk slam), but Travis uses a standing switch and then drives Stone chest-first into the corner!!! Stone staggers out of the corner and is obliterated by a Superkick right to the jaw!! The crowd is booing as Stone drops to all fours and Blake measures Stone up for the Weapon X (the Last Shot), when suddenly; the crowd pops and the owner of the Empire Mark Choquette marches down to the ring with a referee’s shirt on!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Are you kidding me right now? That’s the boss and he’s got a referee’s shirt on!!!
[ Travis’ eyes pop out of his head as he watches Mark roll into the ring smiling at him!!! Mark screams at Travis... ]
The owner of the Empire Mark Choquette – Remember me? I’m the guy you super kicked in the face!!!
[ Travis never sees it coming as Stone gets up and blasts him from behind with a double-axe handle smash!!! Stone signals for the end as drags Blake up and annihilates him with the Stonebreaker (suplex lift into a spinning sidewalk slam)!!! Stone rolls Travis up grabbing both legs as the Mark counts ...1 ...2 ...3!!! ]
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The winner of this match by pin-fall, Alexander Stone!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What a match folks!!! We now have the finals of the Emperors Crown Tournament set and it is going to be...
[ Just then, as Mark raises Alexander Stone’s arm in victory; a massive man comes in from behind and blasts them both to the mat with a double clothesline!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – That’s Taven Cross!!! What the hell is he doing here?!
[ Mark is out cold as Stone tries to get to his feet, but Taven obliterates him with the Final Judgement (F5)!!! Travis grabs the mic from Harvey and kneels down right in Marks face. ]
“The Face of the Empire” Travis Blake – You think you can screw me over?! You think you have all the power around here?! I’m the fucking “Face of the Empire” you son of a bitch!!!
[ Taven locks Stone in the Tainted Dreams (The Hurt Lock Submission) as Travis chokes the hell out of Mark with his boot when suddenly Aoife Valkyrie, Maverick, Godzilla and Mitch Fierce rush the ring and dive in. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Hang in there, helps on the way!!!
[ Travis pulls Taven off of Stone and they roll out of the ring walking off laughing. Back in the ring, Mitch helps Stone to his feet as Godzilla and Maverick help Mark up. Stone holds the back of his neck as he shoves Mitch off of him. ]
World Six-man Tag Team Champion “The Fierce One" Mitch Fierce - What the fucks your problem?!
[ Aoife gets between them putting her arms up trying to keep the two Alpha males apart!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – You think Stone’s tired of getting hit from behind? It looks like he’s losing trust in everyone right now!!!
[ Mitch isn’t taking any shit as he tries to go at Stone, but now Maverick and Godzilla step between them and the crowd goes nuts hoping to see a fight right now!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, I don’t think we will have to wait until the pay per view!!! These guys wanna go at it right now!!!
[ The show goes off the air as Stone and Fierce continue shouting profanities at each other!!! ]
TO BE CONTINUED...
Live Monday night February 28th, 2022
from the sold-out National Indoor Stadium in Yangon, Myanmar 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 – Hiya folks. Phillip, what an incredible show we have in store for tonight as we are just six nights away from our Last Rites pay per view event and here’s what we have so far. There will be a War Games match where the Anarchy Suicide Squad led by Psycho Messiah will take on the Forgotten. Godzilla will be defending his World Cruiserweight title against Maverick. Amber Nova will defend her Women’s World title against the Women’s National Champion Shanna Furguson. Felix Escobar is forced to put his roster spot on the line against his step brother Tito!!! And that’s not all. We will also see the finals for the Emperor’s Crown Tournament where one man will earn a World Heavyweight title shot at any pay per view of his choosing. We will also see the World Tag Team and the Women’s World Tag Team titles defended as both challengers will be determined right here tonight.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – That’s right. Two number one Contendership matches right here tonight along with the semi-finals of the Emperor’s Crown Tournament where we will see Alexander Stone taking on his nemesis Travis Blake in one match and the powerful Mitch Fierce taking on Steve Scott in the other!!!
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – It’s been one hell of a tournament to crown a number one contender and I have to tell you that these four men will have their hands full tonight. These are pay per view quality matches. Even the dark horse Steve Scott has a shot tonight in upsetting Mitch Fierce and becoming the first man to either pin him or make him tap out.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, I am getting word that the World Heavyweight Champion Tank Edge is on his way out to the ring and he’s in a foul mood.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – After what that crazed “Superfan” Benny Dutton did to him last week it’s no surprise.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – And here he comes!!!
[ The crowd pops as “Painkiller” by Judas Priest comes on and out walks the World Heavyweight Champion Tank Edge. He seems unsure and definitely not in a good mood as he gets in the ring and grabs a microphone. ]
The World Heavyweight Champion “The Ring General” Tank Edge - Well, where do I even start here? I'm at a loss of what to even say when it comes to this whole Benny thing. I started this month running down all my possible opponents in the Emperor's Crown tournament and now I'm getting stalked and assaulted by some guy who thinks he's a wrestler. It's like if Stan came to life, but I think this guy’s goal now is to lock me in the trunk. Maybe I could have been nicer. Maybe I could have humored the guy. He was a mega fan and all. But you know you always say you don't want to set a precedent. I let him manage me, suddenly I have to let every deranged guy who smells like he took a bath in patchouli oil manage me. So, I tried to let him down gently; but a like a certain ex-wife, he just couldn't just ride off in the sunset and get some much-needed therapy.
[ Tank shakes his head in disappointment. ]
The World Heavyweight Champion “The Ring General” Tank Edge - What we got here is, a failure to communicate. Some men you just can't reach, which is what Benny wants. Well, he's going to get it. I'd rather go into the pay per view and shut up Travis Blake, or Mitch Fierce or even fucking Mance Warner or something; but here I am about to do something I never thought I'd do. So, I sat down with the lawyers and the bosses and cleared all the legal shit and...
[ Tank takes a deep sigh and looks to the Heavens. ]
The World Heavyweight Champion “The Ring General” Tank Edge - Benny boy, I didn't want to have to hurt you, but like a disobedient child in the 70's; I'm going to have to hurt ya. At Last Rites Benny, you’re getting your shot. May whatever God you believe in have mercy on your soul, because I'm going to find every nerve ending in your body and make sure each and every one screams in pain.
[ Just as Tank is about to leave the ring, the videotron goes all staticky and you can hear a woman’s voice... ]
Women’s voice - This is a test. This station is conducting a test of the Emergency Broadcast System. This is only a test.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What the hell, someone just hacked into our system!!!
[ The static on the videotron clears and we see the smiling face of “Superfan” Benny Dutton smiling down at Tank. }
“Superfan” Benny Dutton – Tank, you’re going to what? What was it you said? Give me what I want?
[ Benny laughs at Tank. ]
“Superfan” Benny Dutton – Give me what I want? How about giving me what I deserve? I’ve earned this. I have given you everything Tank. All my money. All my time. All my energy. And this, this pathetic way of giving me what I want is the best you could do? Did Reverend Odom write that script for you? I can’t believe I have wasted my life following you. Or how easy it was to take this from you.
[ Benny smiles as he lifts up the World Heavyweight title into view. ]
“Superfan” Benny Dutton – Look what we got here.
[ Benny closes his eyes and smells the gold belt like it’s a bouquet of roses before opening his eyes again. ]
“Superfan” Benny Dutton – Can you smell it Tank? Can you smell the history of this belt? The dozens of men that held this belt over the years? Pezzer, Crazy Man, Go-D, Kevin Nash, DDP, Reverend Snow, oh and let’s not forget the love of your life Samantha Skylar.
[ Benny winks at the camera. ]
“Superfan” Benny Dutton – Ah, the proverbial fish that got away. Now that would have been a great love story, but it wasn’t meant to be; was it?
[ Benny rubs the World title like he’s patting a cat. ]
“Superfan” Benny Dutton – Tank, I accept your challenge and I look forward to defending this World Heavyweight Championship and make please do not make any excuses when I embarrass you and become the NEW... UNDISPUTED... WORLDS... HEAVYWEIGHT... CHAMPION!!!
[ You can hear Benny laughing as the videotron goes back to static and the voice of the woman returns once again. ]
Women’s voice - This is a test. This station is conducting a test of the Emergency Broadcast System. This is only a test.
[ The scene goes backstage where Mitch Fierce is seen standing by with Maxwell Shaw. Mitch looks agitated and Shaw looks nervous. ]
Maxwell Shaw - Mitch tonight you face Steve Scott in the second round of the Emperors Crown Tournament. Last week Steve advanced to face you-
[ Mitch puts his hand up in Max’s face. ]
World Six-man Tag Team Champion “The Fierce One" Mitch Fierce - Shut up Max. Steve Scott you got a free pass last week dodged a bullet against Godzilla but this week you don’t get no free pass. This week you are now in my sights, in my way of getting a World Heavyweight Title shot. Ask anybody that I have beaten in this tournament what it feels like knowing they had to face me, to get past me only to end up getting their ass handed to them and their run in this tournament ending. Steve, you are the luckiest and unluckiest guy in this tournament. Luckiest because you much like Chandler Hopkins got in by the skin of your teeth at number seven because Go-D and Massive Mike were out. I have been the number one seed before the tournament started and still am. What does that tell you Steve? It tells me that you suck that you didn’t belong in this tournament to begin with. Luck was on your side when you barely got in. Tonight, you’re unlucky, your luck runs out game over for you in this tournament because you face me. You’re staring down the barrel of Mitch Fierce you’re not dodging the bullet tonight you’re not getting a free pass. What you are getting is an ass kicking. You have to go through me tonight. I’m a different kind of beast inside that ring Steve. Ask. Jake Owens about that when I put him on the shelf injured out of action after our Hell in a Cell match. Ask anyone I have beaten what kind of beast I am. You see Steve, there’s the side of me that just likes to destroy everything, beat the living hell out of my opponents leaving them broken down and defeated. My animalistic side comes out and I can’t control it. That’s the Mitch Fierce you’re facing tonight, Steve. I’m aware of your friends in The Forgotten. I will have eyes in the back of my head because I know how you guys do things. I'll be ready. I’ve had the numbers game against me before and survived and if need be, I'll fight anyone of the Forgotten and still stomp a mudhole in you Steve and win the match going on to win my shot at the World Heavyweight Championship. You got a free pass last week this week I’m going to show you and everybody else why you didn’t even belong in this tournament. Luck got you in. Getting a free pass advanced you I end you and your tournament run tonight. You drew the shit luck card tonight, Steve. Luck isn’t on your side anymore. The beast is going to be unleashed on you tonight, Steve! You will join the others I have defeated and crushed their hopes of getting a World Heavyweight Championship shot. You have to fight tonight, Steve. If you’re lucky, I'll let you survive. If not, after I beat you, then you'll be on the shelf. Bring it Steve. You’re the next victim of “The Fierce One" Mitch Fierce!
[ Mitch looks at Max who says nothing as Mitch walks off as the show swings across the arena where we see “The 2021 Queen of the Ring” Millie McKenzie standing next to Cindy Meyers. ]
Cindy Meyers – Millie, tough loss at Climax in that Triple Threat match against Amber and Kiera.
“The 2021 Queen of the Ring” Millie McKenzie – Yeah, anytime you have the three top women in the same ring at the same time anything can happen. Unfortunately, it wasn’t my night; but I will regroup and come back stronger in the Empress of Tomorrow Tournament.
Cindy Meyers – That’s right. Right now, you are ranked number one in the upcoming tournament with Shanna hot on your heels after Kier took that stunning loss last week to Su Yim.
“The 2021 Queen of the Ring” Millie McKenzie – Stunning? I think that Su Yim is one of the most under-rated women on the roster. She has the talent to beat anyone on the roster on any given night. She just needs to get some momentum behind her and we all better watch out.
Cindy Meyers – You speak very highly of her. Is that because right now you might be facing her in the first round?
“The 2021 Queen of the Ring” Millie McKenzie – No, it’s got nothing to do with that. I give respect where respect is due and she’s earned my respect.
Cindy Meyers – Speaking of earning your respect, to night you face Maria Manic in the opening match of the night. Do you respect her?
“The 2021 Queen of the Ring” Millie McKenzie – Maria is a powerhouse and you have to respect that. Very few women on this roster can match her raw strength. So, to answer your question; yeah, I respect her. But that doesn’t mean that I am going to take her lightly either. You see, I can’t afford to lose this match either. There’s too much on the line right now. If I’m going to get another shot at Amber, I’m going to have to go through three of the top women we got.
Cindy Meyers – Well, good luck tonight, Millie.
“The 2021 Queen of the Ring” Millie McKenzie – Thank you Cindy.
[ Mallie walks off as we see Kiera Hogan hiding in the shadows listening to everything that Millie just said. ]
“The Queen Slaya’” Kiera Hogan – Yah respect Su Yim, but yah don’t respect me? I’ll show yah some damn respect. You just wait and see “Queen”!!!
[ The show swings back to the announcers desk where we see Phillip and Caristico standing by. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Why won’t Kiera just leave things alone? Why is it she has this obsession with Millie McKenzie?
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – I think it’s because she knows that Millie is better than she is and she can’t live with it. What’s the old saying, “always the bride’s maid but never the bride”?
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – In my opinion, Kiera needs to earn what Millie has and right now she’s not even close. Folks, it’s time to kick things off with action from the women’s division as Millie McKenzie takes on Maria Manic. Let’s get right to the ring for this opening bout.
Maria Manic vs Millie McKenzie
“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 from West Midlands, England; she weighs in at 128 lbs.; this is “The 2021 Queen of the Ring” Millie McKenzie!!!
[ "The Enemy" by The Commonjets rocks the arena as Millie walks out on stage to the roar of the crowd who all love her. Millie walks down to the ring, taking her time to high five all her fans. Millie walks around the ring and climbs the ring steps before stepping through the ropes and mounts the corner turnbuckle as the crowd gives her a standing ovation!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Millie comes into this match as the number one contender to the Women’s World title with a none and four record. She is currently the number one seed in the upcoming Empress of Tomorrow Tournament, but that could all come to a crashing halt if she ends up losing tonight and Shanna manages to win the World title at Last Rites.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – That’s right Phil, just like the Emperor’s Crown Tournament; the Women are jockeying for position hoping to get the best seeding possible going into this tournament. If the tournament started today, Millie would draw Su Yim in the first round. I can’t wait to see who is crowned the 2022 Empress of Tomorrow.
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – And her opponent!!! Making her way to the ring from Mechanicsville, Virginia; she weighs in at 161 lbs.; she is a former Women’s National Champion, this is… “The Maneater” Maria Manic!
[ The crowd cheers as “Unbreakable” by Michael Elgin plays as Maria storms down to the ring and marches up the ring steps and climbs into the ring!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – And here comes the powerhouse Maria Manic. Maria is currently the number one contender to Shanna’s Women’s National title with an eleven and thirteen record. If the tournament started today, she would be the number six seed and would have to face Kiera Hogan in the opening round.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – This is a very important night for Maria. With a win tonight it will assure her of a title match against Shanna in the not-too-distant future and it will also lock her in to the number six seed.
[ The bell rings and Millie goes right at Maria nailing a dropkick to the knee. Millie uses an arm grapevine submission on Maria, but they are too close to the ropes and Maria reaches out and grabs them. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Quick thinking by Millie to end this as fast as possible. The only problem is that they were too close to the ropes. Ring positioning is everything when it comes to submission moves.
[ They get to their feet and Maria hits a springboard bulldog on Millie. Maria whips Millie into the turnbuckle and Millie comes back and rocks Maria with a clothesline. Millie climbs to the top turnbuckle, but Maria throws her to the mat. Maria goes for a superkick, but Millie counters it with a legsweep takedown. Millie drags Maria to her feet and whips her into the ropes. Maria comes off the ropes and drives a high knee into Millie. Maria goes for a ripcord cutter, but Millie ducks out of the way and attempts a Russian legsweep, but Maria counters it with an elbowsmash right to the side of the head. Maria hits a spinning backbreaker on Millie. Maria goes for a Texas Cloverleaf, but Millie kicks her off. Millie attempts a corner forearm smash, but Maria ducks out of the way and Millie crashes into the turnbuckle. Back and forth both women go with open hands chops, kicks and punches until Maria sends Millie into the ropes and drives her down with a spine buster. Maria covers Millie as Todd Sinclair counts ...1 ...2 ...and Millie powers out just in time!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – That’s the raw power of Maria Manic that Millie needs to avoid if she’s going to win this match tonight. She will never match up with Maria’s power game.
[ Millie gets to her feet and hits a standing dropkick on Maria. Millie drags Maria to her feet and hits her with a snap suplex into the turnbuckles. Millie tries for another arm grapevine submission, but Maria again grabs the ropes. Both women get to their feet and Maria chops Millie. Maria drives a European uppercut into Millie. Maria drives a high knee into Millie. Maria runs into the ropes, but Millie hits Maria with a back body drop. Millie tries for a third arm grapevine submission, but Maria gets her feet in the ropes this time. Both women get to their feet and Millie goes for a bulldog, but Maria counters it with a drop toe hold and turns it into a Crossface submission but Millie desperately reaches out and grabs the ropes!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Both women are going for submission holds to end this match. Millie with three armbar submissions and now the crossface by Maria. All four attempts thwarted when each combatant grabbed the ropes.
[ Now it’s Maria who puts Millie in her own armbar submission but again they are too close to the ropes and Millie drops her foot over the bottom rope breaking the hold. ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – What a complete shift in what I had thought we were going to see tonight. I thought we would see both women open their play books and go for every high-powered move they have, but instead we are seeing a more grounded match where they are trying to make their opponents tap out.
[ Maria drags Millie to her feet and whips her into the ropes, but Millie reverses it and drives a clothesline into Maria. Millie goes for the pin as Todd Sinclair counts ...1 ...2 ...and Maria powers out just in time!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Excellent pin attempt by Millie but it wasn’t enough as Maria easily powers out. It’s going to take more than that to pin Maria’s shoulders to the mat.
[ Both women get to their feet and Maria nails a pump kick into Millie. Maria attempts a suplex, but Millie powers out of it and drives a springboard spear into Maria. Millie goes for the pin as Todd Sinclair counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Maria gets her shoulder up!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – That’s exactly what it’s going to take to take Maria down. Millie is going to have to go to the well and pull out ever power move she’s got.
[ Millie runs into the ropes and misses with a clothesline. Maria attempts a roundhouse kick, but Millie counters it with a legsweep takedown. Millie comes off the turnbuckle and hits an Asai moonsault down onto Maria!!! Millie rolls Maria up as Todd Sinclair counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Maria kicks out just in time!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Maria is rocked right now as Millie can sense that the door is open and the end game might be near. She needs to set maria up for the Dream Maker!!!
[ Millie climbs to the top rope and goes for a twisting somersault splash, but Maria rolls out of the way and Millie crashes to the mat. Maria climbs to the top rope and soars off nailing Millie with an Asai moonsault!!! Maria rolls up Millie as Todd Sinclair counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Millie gets her shoulder up!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – This match is incredible Phillip. We’ve gone from submission attempts, to power moves and now these women are going to the high rent district with aerial assaults. It just goes to show you how diversified these women are in the Empire.
[ Maria sends Millie into the ropes and she goes for a huracanrana from the second rope, but Maria counters it with a sit-out power bomb!!! Maria rolls Millie up hooking the legs as Todd Sinclair counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Millie powers out just in time!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What a move by Maria as she just splattered Millie all over the mat with that sit-out powerbomb!!! But what is more amazing is that Millie was able to kick out of it.
[ Maria sends Millie into the ropes and she tries for a clothesline, but Millie ducks out of the way and nails a dropkick to the knee of Maria. Millie drives an elbowdrop down onto Maria. Maria stagers to her feet and Millie runs into the ropes. Maria goes for a clothesline, but Millie counters it with a Fujiwara armbar, but Maria frantically reaches out and grabs the ropes. Millie drags Maria to her feet and back and forth they go nailing each other with stunning punches, kicks and chops. Millie goes for an enzuigiri, but Maria catches her and drives her into the mat with a side slam. Maria is going for the cover as Todd Sinclair counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Millie slides her leg under the bottom rope saving herself yet again!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Great ring awareness by the former World Champion to know exactly how close to the ropes she is. A few inches away and Maria would have won this match.
[ Maria drives a short-arm lariat into Millie that drives her to the mat. Maria is going for the pin as Todd Sinclair counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Millie drops her foot on the bottom rope breaking the count!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Man, Millie is taking a beating right now as Maria is hitting her with everything in her arsenal and she can’t believe that Millie is still in this match.
[ Maria gets to her feet and runs into the ropes and never sees Millie get up and nail her with a superkick right to the jaw. Maria crawls to the corner where Millie hits a Bronco Buster on her. Millie attempts another twisting somersault splash, but Maria again rolls out of the way and crashes to the mat. Maria rolls Millie up using the turnbuckles as leverage with her feet as Todd Sinclair counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and the referee sees Maria’s feet on the bottom turnbuckle and stops the count!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Desperation move Maria right there to try and win this match as she used her feet on the bottom turnbuckle padding for extra leverage and it almost worked.
[ Maria pounds her fists on the mat before she gets to her feet and measures Millie up and runs into the ropes, but Millie levels Maria with a roundhouse kick!!! Millie drags Maria back to her feet and nails her with the Dream Maker (Front Flip piledriver)!!! Millie goes for the pin as Todd Sinclair counts ...1 ...2 ...3!!! ]
Time of match: 0:10:57
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The winner of this match by pin-fall, Millie McKenzie!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What a brutal match by both women tonight. It was a complete and utter war that these two women just fought.
[ As the referee raises Millie’s arm, Kiera Hogan hits the ring from out of nowhere and blasts Millie from behind with a double axe handle smash!!! Millie tries to cover up as Kiera lays waste to her with repeated forearm shots to her head and face!!! The referee pulls Kiera off of Millie as the crowd boos the shit out of her. ]
“The Queen Slaya’” Kiera Hogan – I’m the Queen Slaya’ you bitch!!! I’m the baddest bitch on the roster!!! I’m going to win this tournament and get my rightful title shot!!!
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Oh no, look out behind you!!!
[ Kiera smiles and laughs as she turns around and comes face to face with Maria Manic!!! Kiera’s face has the look of terror as Maria snaps out and grabs Kiera by the throat. Kiera swings her arms wildly as she tries to break free of Maria’s iron like grasp and she finally resorts to low blowing Maria!!! Maria lets go of Kiera as she reaches for her crotch. Kiera heads for the hills as she drops down and rolls out of the ring heading back up the ramp. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – It’s all well and good when you attack someone from behind. But come face to face who will most likely be your first-round opponent in the tournament and everything changes. Folks, let’s go to the back where Reverend Azazel is standing by.
[ The videotron comes on as it shows Reverend Azazel standing center stage with his Forgotten behind him. ]
Reverend Azazel – Psycho Messiah, the definition of war is a state of armed conflict between different nations or states or different groups within a nation or state. Those groups would be the Forgotten and the Anarchy Suicide Squad. Sunday night Messiah, you lead your men to their impending doom when they enter into the War Chamber against the deadliest men on the entire Empire roster. You see Messiah, we have nothing to lose. Mark saw to that. He has striped us of everything. We are the Forgotten. We seek justice for all the wrongs done to us. All the months of being pushed back so that others can get title shots. Banished from this company. Sunday night at the pay per view, it will be your Last Rites!!!
[ Steve Scott steps up and he looks pissed off. ]
“Bloodlust” Steve Scott – Maverick, last week you stuck your nose in Forgotten business and now I’ve got my crosshairs pointed right at you. You jumped me in my match against Godzilla. Your friend signed on for that match knowing full well what kind of beating he was in store for. But you just couldn’t stay out of it. You had to attack me. Well, payback’s a bitch kid and I have nothing to lose!!! Mark my words, I’m coming for you!!!
[ Jake Owens steps up into the scene. ]
“The Death Dealer” Jake Owens – For my first match back from suspension they feed me “The Russian Bear” Boris Drago. Boris, the end is here for you. Tonight, I am going to snap that knee of yours for the last time and send your ass back to Siberia with the Koloff Dynasty. Drago, you’re a joke. A has been. The biggest thing you ever did was have a ten-minute feud with that loudmouth Travis Blake.
[ Owens laughs into the camera. ]
“The Death Dealer” Jake Owens – Drago, I’m done holding back. I’m done sitting at home while everyone else gets pushed around here. Tonight, I’m going to make an example out of you and after they drag your broken and twisted body out of my ring there will be no way my name will be kept out of any title match. TV title? Mine!!! US title? Mine!!! World title? Tank, your ass is mine!!! Nothing is stopping the Death Dealer!!! If you got a strap, death is coming for all of you!!!
[ Reverend Azazel laughs as he leads his Forgotten away. The show swings across the arena as we see Maxwell Shaw standing by with Spice, Katie Forbes and Joey Ryan. ]
Maxwell Shaw – Ladies, you two have a huge match tonight as you face the Heartbreakers for a shot at Blue Nation and their Women’s World Tag Team titles in just six nights at Last Rites.
[ Spice looks irritated as Katie is filing her nails. ]
“A Slice of” Spice – I cannot understand why we have to even wrestle tonight. We beat Bloody Mary and Havok twice. We beat Jessie and Lia. We are the hottest tag team in the Women’s division right now.
“Cotton Candy” Katie Forbes – I know I’m hot. My titties are sweating.
“A Slice of” Spice – Someone needs to explain to me why we are even having this match.
Maxwell Shaw – Just my opinion, but I would have to think that it’s your overall rankings. You are still ranked third in the division and the Heartbreakers are ranked number one with a much better record.
[ Delta and Loca of Caged Heat walks onto the set. ]
Delta – The biggest question is why aren’t we included in this match? We got a better record then both of you two whores...
“Cotton Candy” Katie Forbes – Whores? Really? Whores don’t get paid for sucking dick. I’ve made a ton of money sucking hundreds of dicks.
Loca – So you’re a hooker then.
“The Don” Joey Ryan – I have you know that my girls are professional sex worker. They each broke six figures last year just in the sex industry alone.
Delta – Back off butt-boy. You’re breath smells like a bag full of dicks.
“Cotton Candy” Katie Forbes – You back off rug muncher.
[ Katie gets right in Delta’s face. ]
“A Slice of” Spice – Hold off. Both of you, cool it.
[ Spice looks at Delta. ]
“A Slice of” Spice – I tell you what. If we go on to Last Rites and win the Women’s World Tag Team titles, like I know we will; we will give the two of you the first title shot.
[ Loca and Delta laugh and fist bump. ]
Loca – You’re gonna give us the first title shot?
“Cotton Candy” Katie Forbes – That’s right, you got a dick in your ear?
[ Loca tries to go after Katie, but Delta holds her back. ]
Delta – Fine. Fine. You win the Women’s World Tag Team titles at Last Rites; we get the first title shot.
[ Spice and Katie walk off leaving Joey behind who eyes Delta and Loca up and down. ]
“The Don” Joey Ryan – I’ve only sucked a few dicks in my career, and I brush my teeth right after; so there.
[ Joey storms off proud of himself as Delta and Loca stand there dumbfounded as the show cuts back to the announcers desk. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, we once again have to apologize for that last segment. The comments made by S.E.X. are in no way endorsed by the Empire or its affiliates.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – And what a very brave offering to Caged Heat that if S.E.X. were to go on to win the Women’s World Tag Team titles at Last Rites, they will give Caged Heat the first title shot right out of the gate. I have to believe that S.E.X. made that offer to either keep Caged Heat out of their matches the next few weeks, or in some way help them get to the pay per view and win so that they can face S.E.X. for the titles.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, it’s time for our second match of the night and this one should tear down the house as these two powerhouses are about to collide in an epic battle of two mammoth men. A few minute ago we heard from Jake Owens and his Forgotten, but now let’s hear from his opponent, Boris Drago.
[ The videotron comes on as we see Boris Drago in the locker room with a towel wrapped around his neck and he looks pissed off. He stops pacing and looks right in the camera. ]
“The Russian Bear” Boris Drago – Jake Owens, you talk big talk; but all you are is a hired gun. Back in Mother Russia, many men do things for money. I have done many unsavory things for money. Things that I am not proud of, and things that I am very proud of. Tonight, I break you. Tonight, I wrap my arms around your neck and I will squeeze you until your head pops clean off. No amount of money is going to be able to fix you once I lock the Iron Curtain on you!!!
[ Drago walks off as the cameras come back to Phillip and Caristico at the announcer’s desk. ]
Jake Owens vs Boris Drago
“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 being accompanied by Reverend Azazel, he hails from San Antonio, Texas and weighs in at 273 lbs.; this is... “The Death Dealer” Jake Owens!!!
[ The crowd roars to their feet as “Everybody Dies” explodes through the PA system as the crazed Jake Owens storms out on stage with evil intent in his eyes with Reverend Azazel walking close behind him. Owens storms down to the ring and climbs as Reverend Azazel takes his place at ringside. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – This is Jake Owens’ first match since we last saw him at Leap of Faith Night 1 inside that Hell in a Cell where he got his ass handed to him by Mitch Fierce. He now comes off his suspension to face Boris Drago in his return match. Jake comes into this match with a one and one record, but he is an immediate threat to anyone that holds a title. This man will do anything it takes to get a title.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – You can say that again as we all learned when he beat the hell out of his tag team partner Eddie O’Shay who he held the World Tag Team titles with when they were part of the Chain Gang.
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – And his opponent. Making his way to the ring from Saint Petersburg, Russia; he weighs in at 245 lbs., this is… “The Russian Bear” Boris Drago!!
[ The fans boo as “Far from the start” by Timati and L’One plays as the Russian monster walks out on stage with to the boos of the sold-out crowd. He storms down to the ring and climbs in. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Boris has had an up and down career here in the Empire. He has suffered two torn ligaments in his right knee and has spent a considerable amount of time on the injured list. Even with that lost time, he has still managed to rack up a seven and fourteen record and currently sits as the number three contender to the TV title.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Boris is coming off of a submission win over STIXX in his last match here in the Empire. It was a nice win to build on, but tonight he goes up against a man of equal strength and equal viciousness.
[ The referee calls for the bell and the two big men walk to the center of the ring and glare at each other. Owens opens up first as he kicks Drago. Drago returns the favor and punches Owens. Drago grabs Owens and whips him into the ropes. Drago misses with a kick and Owens comes off the far ropes with a clothesline that levels Drago. Owens drags Drago to his feet and delivers a nasty headbutt. Owens locks on a sleeperhold, but Drago mule kicks Owens. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – The referee is admonishing Drago right now and Reverend Azazel is beside himself right now at ringside screaming at the referee to disqualify Boris for that blatant low blow!!!
[ Drago pushes the referee aside and punches Owens followed by an open hand chop that echoes across the arena. Drago then whips Owens into the turnbuckle, but Owens explodes back out and rocks Drago with an elbow. Owens comes off the ropes and hits Drago with a baseball slide clothesline. Owens drags Drago to his feet and tries to go for a belly-to-belly suplex, but Drago uses a facerake on Owens. Drago comes off the ropes and hits Owens with a shoulderblock. Owens staggers to his feet and Drago goes for a sleeperhold, but Owens counters it with a jawbreaker. Owens goes for another belly-to-belly suplex, but Drago again counters with an eye gouge on Owens. Drago locks Owens in a chokehold against the ropes and Yali Sapphire warns Drago to let go. Yali Sapphire counts ...1 ...2 ...3 ...4 ...and Drago releases the hold putting his hands in the air smiling at the referee before going right back at Owens. ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – I have to tell you, it’s early in the match; but Owens seems a little overwhelmed right now as he goes toe to toe with the big Russian Bear.
[ Drago grabs Owens and attempts a sleeperhold, but Owens pushes back and drives Drago into the corner. Owens unloads as he nails a left elbow, followed by a right, and then a left, and then a right. Elbow after elbow lands on Drago until Drago staggers out of the corner right into the waiting arms of Owens who then drives him down with a Samoan Drop. Owens is going for the pin as Yali Sapphire counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Drago gets his shoulder up!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What a slam by Owens to take Drago down. With moves like that neither man will last long in this match.
[ Owens drags Drago back to his feet and goes for a lariat, but Drago counters it with a snap suplex that sends Owens crashing into the turnbuckle. Drago drags Owens to his feet and locks on the Iron Curtain (A full nelson submission), but Owens not only has his right hand on the ropes, but he has his right leg wrapped around the middle rope too. Yali Sapphire warns Drago to let go but Drago is out of his mind right now and refuses. Yali Sapphire starts her count ...1 ...2 ...3 ...4 ...5 and Yali Sapphire signals for the bell as she disqualifies Drago!!! ]
Time of match: 0:03:34
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The winner of this match by disqualification, Jake Owens!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Just like that this match is over folks. Boris Drago has been DQ’d because he refused to release that Irion Curtain submission even though Jake Owens was clearly in possession of the ring ropes.
[ Drago still refuses to let go of the ropes even with the referee trying to grab his arms and rip him free. Two more referee’s rush the ring and they too try and pry Drago off of Owens, but again the big Russian refuses to let go.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Come-on, let the man go. You proved your point for Christ’s sake.
[ Just then, Aric Cannon, Marc Fulton and Steve Scott rush down to the ring. Drago sees them coming and he lets Owens go dropping his dead weight to the mat before rolling out of the ring and back-peddling up the ramp with a smile on his face. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Do you get the feeling that it was never Boris’ intentions to win this match tonight as much as it was to make Owens pay for what he said earlier tonight about him?
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – There’s no doubt after watching him take Owens out that this was his plan all along. He needs to watch his back because you know damn well that Owens is going to be looking for him.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, while this match was taking place; Havok stormed into Gail Kim’s office and she demanded a spot in the Empress of Tomorrow’s Tournament. Let’s go back and listen in.
[ The videotron comes on as it shows the Women’s Division General Manager Gail Kim sitting behind her desk when the door bursts open and in storms Havok who looks pissed. ]
The Women’s Division General Manager Gail Kim – Jesus Christ Jess, don’t you knock?
Jessicka Havok – I need answers. Why aren’t I in the tournament? My record is just as good as Solo and Su Yim and they’re in it? Shit’s not right. I thought you were going to be a fair GM?
The Women’s Division General Manager Gail Kim – Well, to be honest; you and Mary parted ways after we announced the brackets for the tournament. It wouldn’t be fair for Solo or Su Yim if we ousted them from the tournament just because you chose to shaft Mary.
Jessicka Havok – It’s business. We weren’t going anywhere as a tag team. I’m better on my own.
The Women’s Division General Manager Gail Kim – Yeah, that’s what Mary said too.
Jessicka Havok – What?
The Women’s Division General Manager Gail Kim – Oh, you thought you were the only person that had the same feelings about this tournament? Mary visited me earlier and she knocked.
Jessicka Havok – Get to the point. What did you say to her?
The Women’s Division General Manager Gail Kim – Listen, I get it. Tag teams break up. And I respect all your records so like I told her, this is what I’m going to do. At Last Rites, we are going to have two wild card matches. Whoever wins those matches will be added to the tournament.
Jessicka Havok – So who am I facing at the pay per view?
The Women’s Division General Manager Gail Kim – Do we really need to go there? I really thought you were bright enough to figure it out.
[ Havok grimaces. ]
Jessicka Havok – Bloody Mary!!!
[ Gail smiles at Havok. ]
The Women’s Division General Manager Gail Kim – You asked for this, not me. Have a great night.
[ Havok storms out of the office as we cut across the arena to where we see the Heartbreakers standing by with Maxwell Shaw. ]
Maxwell Shaw – Ladies, last week you beat a very questionable Jessicka Havok and Bloody Mary when Havok turned on Bloody Mary and attacked her before walking out on her. Tonight, the stakes are much higher as you face S.E.X. for a shot at the Women’s World Tag Team titles at Last Rites in six days against the reigning champions Blue Nation.
Nattie Neidhart – Questionable? We cannot control it if one teammate turns on another. We took advantage of a bad situation that Havok created. Sucks to be them.
Maxwell Shaw – Earlier tonight, we heard from S.E.X. and they pretty much promised Caged Heat the first title shot when they not only beat you tonight; but also beat Blue Nation at Last Rites.
[ Nattie rolls her eyes. ]
Nattie Neidhart – Are they for real? They are handing out title shots and they haven’t won a thing yet. We all know what S.E.X. is full of and it isn’t shit either.
Maxwell Shaw – Please, there are kids watching.
Nattie Neidhart – I know, I know; keep it PG. Listen, S.E.X. is clearly out of their league going into our match tonight; and they can run their suck holes all they want but I promise you there’s no way me and my girls are going to lose to those two sluts.
Maxwell Shaw – Ladies, good luck tonight.
Nattie Neidhart – Oh, and one last thing. When we go on to win the Women’s World Tag Team titles, Caged Heat can get to the back of the line because we won’t be giving them the first title shot. They have to earn like everyone else.
[ The show cuts back across the arena where we see a very smug and grinning Tony Tran dressed in a business suit with the Golden BoyZ and Courtney Cox behind him. ]
“The Million Dollar Man” Tony Tran – So here we are, just six nights away from Last Rites and a shot at the World Tag team titles and what pray tell stands in our way? Who do we look across the ring and see but the Guerillas of Destiny? Gentlemen, the games afoot; and the wrestling God’s have spoken. The Guerillas of Destiny are well, let’s just say; you are a thing of the past. You turned your backs on the Gold Standard only to get your asses tossed out of the Bullet Club? Talk about bad luck. You sold your souls for two watches? If I knew that you guys could be bought out for so cheap, I would have chipped in a few bucks.
[ The Golden BoyZ look at Tran oddly. ]
“The Million Dollar Man” Tony Tran – What? Not to replace you guys. I mean to help us get to the top of the tag team division. Guerillas, we all know how great you’ve guys have been this past year; but it’s over. Without the Gold Standard, without the Bullet Club; what are you two really?
[ Tran smiles evilly. ]
“The Million Dollar Man” Tony Tran – You’re nothen but a couple of guys in guerilla suits. Boys, take a good long look at the future of the tag team division. Soon, very soon; my BoyZ will be draped in gold and the two of you; well let’s be honest, the two of you will just be distant memories in the annals of the Empires history books right there beside the likes of the Diamond Killers and the Elite Legion. Look long and hard boys because what you are seeing beside me is the future of the Empire.
[ The show cuts back to Phillip and Caristico at ringside. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Strong words by Tony Tran as he leads the Golden BoyZ into battle tonight against the former World Tag Team Champions the Guerillas of Destiny who earned this match by beating the Cartel last week.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – You can sense that one team is on the rise and the other is spiraling out of control right now and the team that is spiraling out of control is not the Golden BoyZ, and that’s tough to say when you’re talking about the former World Tag Team Champions and the only team in the division with double digit wins right now.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – They are or were arguably the best team in the division with or without the titles in their possession, but another team that is arguably the best in their division are the Heartbreakers and they are next as they take on SEX for a shot at Blue Nation and the Women’s World Tag Team titles. Harvey old friend, take it away.
Winner gets a Women’s World Tag Team title shot at Last Rites
S.E.X. vs The Heartbreakers
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The following tag team match is set for one fall with a twenty-minute time limit and it is for a shot at the Women’s World Tag Team Championship at Last Rites!!! Making their way to the ring, Indi Hartwell, Shotzi Blackheart and Nattie Neidhart, they are… the Heartbreakers!!!
[ The crowd goes crazy as “New Foundation” by explodes across the arena as Indi, Shotzi and Nattie strut out on stage. They high five each other and walk down the rampway each climbing into the ring. Nattie and Indy each pose on a turnbuckle while Shotzi straddles the ropes between them. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Caristico, these women are hell bent on getting back their World Tag Team titles and tonight they go with Nattie and Shotzi, the two powerhouses and most experienced of the trio as they love to use the “Freebirds Rules” to keep their opponents guessing as to who they will be facing until just moments before the match.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – What more can we say about the former Women’s World Tag Team champions as they come into this match as the number one Contender’s with the best record in the division at ten and three.
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – And their opponents!!! Making their way to the ring being accompanied by “The Don” Joey Ryan, they weigh in at a combined weight of 283 lbs, Katie Forbes and Spice, this is… S.E.X.!!!
[ “Tattooed Angel” rocks the arena as the two women walk out on stage dressed in what appears to be more lingerie than wrestling gear!!! Joey Ryan struts out on stage wearing a skintight black dominatrix outfit just barely holding up his nut sack. They strut down to the ring handing out lollipops to the fans at ringside in the shapes of titties and dicks. For some reason, the fans love them and their playful act. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – I always find myself scratching my head when I say this but here are the former Women’s World Tag Team Champions S.E.X. where it was back at Diamonds are Forever where they dethroned Medusa Complex to become champions. They went on to hold those belts for thirty-five days where they lost their titles in a Fatal Four-way match at the Stable Wars pay per view.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – We can all sit here and talk about how unorthodox S.E.X. are or what they do on their free time, but the history books will always show that these women were champions.
[ Shotzi and Spice start the match off as the referee calls for the bell and Shotzi spears Spice. Shotzi runs into the ropes and hits Spice with a drop kick. Shotzi again runs into the ropes, but this time Joey Ryan reaches up and pulls down the top rope causing Shotzi to crash to the floor in a heap. Ken Peterson steps through the ropes and yells down at Joey Ryan threatening to toss him from ringside if he does that again. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – It didn’t take long for Joey Ryan to get involved in this match. We all knew he was going to be a factor, but this early on just goes to show you how much they fear the Heartbreakers.
[ Spice rolls out under the bottom rope and goes right after Shotzi nailing her with a clothesline. ...1 ...and Joey Ryan sneaks up behind Shotzi, but Indi Hartwell rushes over and nails Joey Ryan with a clothesline as she leaps off the steel ring steps!!! ...2 ...Spice grabs Shotzi and launches her into the steel guardrail. ...3 ...Spice rolls Shotzi back into the ring and follows her back in. Katie Forbes enters the ring and they whip Shotzi into the ropes and hit Shotzi with a double back body drop. Katie leaves the ring. Spice goes for a rolling cutter, but Shotzi blocks it and tags out to Nattie Neidhart. Nattie goes for a springboard clothesline, but Spice counters it with an interceptor superkick. Spice sends Nattie into the corner and tries for a forearm smash, but Nattie ducks out of the way and Spice crashes into the turnbuckle. Nattie goes for a lariat, but Spice counters with a go-behind and nails belly-to-back suplex on Nattie. Spice whips Nattie into the ropes and hits her with a roundhouse kick. Spice then tags out to Katie Forbes. Nattie comes charging in and hits Katie with a big splash. Nattie follows it up with an Inverted DDT on Katie. Nattie is going for the win as she climbs to the top rope and hits a frog splash on Katie. Nattie rolls Katie up as Ken Peterson counts ...1 ...2 ...and Joey Ryan pulls Katies foot under the bottom rope. ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Again Joey Ryan interjects himself into the match for the second time and again Head Referee Ken Peterson admonishes him.
[ Nattie goes for a superkick, but Katie catches her leg and counters it with a legsweep takedown. Katie comes off the top rope with an Asai moonsault down onto Nattie as she goes for the cover and Ken Peterson counts ...1 ...2 ...and Nattie gets her shoulder up!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What a moonsault by Katie Forbes to nearly put Nattie away tonight but the leader of the Heartbreakers just got her shoulders up just at the last second.
[ Katie attempts a slingshot, but Nattie ducks out of the way. Nattie climbs to the top turnbuckle, but Katie throws her to the mat. Katie runs into the ropes, but Nattie goes for a dropkick to the knee, but Katie jumps out of the way. Katie tries for a bulldog, but Nattie throws her off. Nattie climbs to the top rope and nails Katie with a dropkick. Nattie tags out to Shotzi Blackheart. Shotzi and Nattie hit Katie with a double clothesline. Nattie leaves the ring. Shotzi goes for a roundhouse kick, but Katie catches her leg and leg whips her to the mat. Katie attempts a clothesline, but Shotzi counters it with an attempted Crucifix Slam; but Katie blocks it and spins Shotzi around into a sidewalk slam. Katie rolls Shotzi up as Ken Peterson counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Shotzi kicks out!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – What a move by Katie to turn that Crucifix Slam into a sidewalk slam that took a ton out of Shotzi Blackheart.
[ Katie runs into the ropes and hits Shotzi with a running knee strike. Katie drives a fist to the midsection of Shotzi. Katie nails a dropkick from the second rope on Shotzi. Katie goes for a clothesline, but this time Shotzi counters it with a crucifix pin attempt that she failed at just moments ago as she goes for the pin and Ken Peterson counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Katie gets shoulder up!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Nice Crucifix pin attempt by Shotzi and that’s what she attempted a minute ago but paid the price as Katie was able to counter it, but not this time.
[ Shotzi tags out to Nattie Neidhart. Before leaving the ring, Shotzi nails an Asai moonsault on Katie and Nattie hits a frog splash on Katie!!! Nattie rolls Katie up as Ken Peterson counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Joey Ryan pulls the referee out of the ring!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Man, Nattie just got screwed over by Joey Ryan who right now is being screamed at by the Head Referee Ken Peterson.
[ Spice enters the ring and Katie and Spice whip Nattie into the ropes and they hit Nattie with a double kick to the midsection. Spice leaves the ring and Katie delivers an Exploder suplex into the turnbuckles on Nattie. Katie tags out to Spice. Spice and Katie whip Nattie into the ropes and they hit Nattie with a double elbowsmash. Again, Spice and Katie whip Nattie into the ropes and they hit Nattie with a double kick to the midsection.

Spice rolls Nattie up as Ken Peterson counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Nattie shoots her shoulder up off the mat!!! ]

[ Spice goes for a clothesline, but Nattie ducks under it and snaps off a neckbreaker on Spice. Nattie rolls up Spice as Ken Peterson counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Spice kicks out!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – What a neckbreaker by Nattie that nearly snapped Spice’s head clean off.
[ Nattie runs into the ropes and Joey Ryan reaches under the ropes and trips Nattie!!! Ken Peterson ejects Joey Ryan from the ringside area and the crowd loves it as they give the Head Referee a standing ovation!!! ]

[ Katie tags out to Spice who rushes in and puts Nattie in her new submission hold called the Camel Toes (Camel Clutch on the mat with her legs around her opponent’s waist)!!! Nattie is writhing in pain until she finally submits!!! ]
Time of match: 0:09:23
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The winner of this match by submission, S.E.X.!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – I can’t believe this, S.E.X., just won the match by making Nattie submit!!! Spice and Katie just punched their tickets to Last Rites and a date with Blue Nation!!!
[ Spice and Katie celebrate in the ring when suddenly Delta and Loca walk out from the back and stand at the top of the ramp just looking down at them. Spice and Katie look back up and they know that they have a date with the devil if they manage to beat Blue Nation at the pay per view. ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – You have to believe that come Last Rites, Caged Heat is going to have a very vested interest in the title match. If S.E.X. manages to win, we now know that Caged Heat is going to get the first title shot.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What a match we are going to see at the pay per view and right now Maxwell Shaw is standing by with the Women’s World Tag Team Champions Blue Nation. Let’s go to the back and hear what the champions have to say just six nights away from defending their titles against Spice and Katie Forbes.
[ The videotron comes on as it shows Maxwell Shaw standing beside Charli Evans and Jessica Troy of Blue Nation. ]
Maxwell Shaw – Ladies, first off congratulations on your huge win back at Climax over the Heartbreakers; but the challengers are lining up fast and furious as we have just learned that Spice and Katie Forbes will be your challengers at Last Rites as they just defeated the Heartbreakers to earn that title shot.
Four Time Women’s World Tag Team Champion Charli Evans – S.E.X.? Again? Ladies, and I use that word very loosely; aren’t you tired of finding yourselves on the losing end time after time?
Maxwell Shaw – This will be the fourth time that the two of you have met in the ring and right now you and Jessica have a two to one lead head-to-head.
Women’s World Tag Team Champion Jessica Troy – And soon to be three and one after we kick their asses Sunday night. Look at us, there’s no way they can beat us. I have the best tag team partner in Charli Evans that the Empire has ever seen.
Maxwell Shaw – Well, they did beat Medusa Complex to win the Women’s World Tag Team titles and just this very night they beat the former champions the Heartbreakers to earn this title shot.
Four Time Women’s World Tag Team Champion Charli Evans – We all know the road that they took to get here and we all know that Joey Ryan had a huge hand in getting this title shot.
[ Charli is interrupted as Jessica McKay and Cassie Lee walks onto the set. Charli and Jessica get very defensive ready for a fight if need be. ]
Women’s World Tag Team Champion Jessica Troy – What the hell do you want?
[ Jessica puts her hands up showing that she’s not here for a fight. ]
Jessica McKay – We come in peace. We don’t want a fight.
Four Time Women’s World Tag Team Champion Charli Evans – Then you better walk away then because we have nothing to say to you.
Cassie Lee – Look, we know that you’re facing S.E.X. at the pay per view; and we also know that Caged Heat’s in their back pocket.
Women’s World Tag Team Champion Jessica Troy – We don’t care about Caged Heat.
Jessica McKay – But you should. Do you really think that Caged Heat isn’t going to do something stupid at the pay per view just to make sure they get that title shot S.E.X. promised them? Don’t be stupid.
Four Time Women’s World Tag Team Champion Charli Evans – And let me guess, the two of you can help us with that?
[ Cassie smiles. ]
Cassie Lee – Of course we can help you. We will watch your backs and all we ask in return is the same thing that S.E.X. agreed to give Caged Heat.
[ Charli chuckles. ]
Four Time Women’s World Tag Team Champion Charli Evans – So let me get this right, you’ll watch our backs if we give you two the next title shot?
[ The Mean Girls nod their head in unison and smile at Charli and Jessica. The two champions look at each other and nod in agreement. ]
Four Time Women’s World Tag Team Champion Charli Evans – Fine, if we win you two will get the next title shot. But you have to make sure Caged Heat doesn’t interfere in our match at all.
[ Jessica and Cassie clap their hands looking giddy. ]
Jessica McKay – Don’t worry. We’ve got your backs. We promise.
[ Charli and Jessica walk off as we cut to the dressing room of Tama Tonga and Tanga Loa; the Guerillas of Destiny. ]
Tama Tonga – Tony Tran, you think we are things of the past? Well guess again big mouth, we aren’t just coming to beat your BoyZ asses, we’re here to shove our boots right up your ass too. Talk to me Tanga.
Tanga Loa – Travis Blake, you run your mouth too damn much. We fucked you over? We were the disappointments of the Bullet Club? Fool, what have you done since you lost the US title to Tank? What have you done since we lost the World Six-man Tag Team titles to Edge Legacy? I’ll tell you what you’ve done, nothen but run your damn mouth.
Tama Tonga – Travis, good leaders lead by example. You’re no leader. You’re just a bitch with a big mouth.
Tanga Loa – Yeah, we took those watches; because if you’re as good as you proclaim to be, then Godzilla should have been a walk in the park. The problem with you is, your ego is bigger than your talent. You aint that good and it shows.
Tama Tonga – The biggest mistake wasn’t joining the Bullet Club it was leaving the Gold Standard. At least Stone had our backs. At least Stone trusted us. You’re nothen but a little bitch.
Tanga Loa – Golden BoyZ, we are pissed right now and it’s a bad time to be across the ring from us when we are pissed. You two clowns think that you can beat us? Let us tell you what the history books say about the two of you. Always the Guerillas bitches!!!
[ The show swings back to the Women’s Division General Manager Gail Kim’s office as the Women’s World Champion Amber Nova walks in and sees Reverend Azazel standing there with a shit eating grin on his face. ]
The Women’s World Champion “The Perfect 10” Amber Nova – Looks like the gangs all here, let’s get this over with.
[ Gail slides a contract across the desk at Amber. ]
The Women’s Division General Manager Gail Kim – All I need is your signature and the match at Last Rites is all set.
[ Amber grabs the contract and glances through it quickly before looking over at Azazel. ]
The Women’s World Champion “The Perfect 10” Amber Nova – What’s the matter, Shanna afraid to show her face herself; that she needed to send her lap dog?
[ Azazel chuckles and smiles. ]
Reverend Azazel – Shanna will deal with you in good time, now please; put pen to paper and sign the contract like a good dear.
The Women’s World Champion “The Perfect 10” Amber Nova – Call me dear again and I’ll ram this pen up your ass.
[ Gail stands up. ]
The Women’s Division General Manager Gail Kim – That’s enough. Amber, sign the contract and it’ll finalize the world title match for Sunday night.
[ Amber grabs the pen and signs the contract before tossing it back across the desk at Gail. ]
The Women’s World Champion “The Perfect 10” Amber Nova – Azazel, you go back and tell Shanna that when she shows up Sunday night; she is going to quickly realize that she’s way out of her league.
[ Azazel smiles and chuckles. ]
Reverend Azazel – That’s funny Amber. She told me to say the same thing to you.
[ Amber is fuming as she storms out of the office. The show cuts back to the announcers desk. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Talk about a number of volatile situations going on right now. One being the Guerillas and Travis Blake, and the other being Amber Nova and Shanna Furguson.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – As far as Amber and Shanna goes, it all comes to a head this Sunday night at Last Rights as Amber’s World title is on the line against the Women’s National Champion. This should be an incredible match. As far as the Guerillas go, we have not seen the end of this feud between Travis Blake and his former friends the Guerillas of Destiny. Travis is cleaning house right now in the Bullet Club with the ousting of both the Mean Girls and the Guerillas. I have to wonder how he’s going to rebuild that group or are they all done?
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Knowing Travis, he’s already got them replaced before they were kicked out. Those men that attacked the Guerillas are still out there hiding in the shadows. It’s just a matter of time before we see them again. Folks, it’s time for the World Tag Team Number One Contender’s match as the Golden BoyZ take on the Guerillas of Destiny. This one should be good. Let’s get right back to the action. Harvey, take it away buddy.
Winner gets a World Tag Team title shot at Last Rites

“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Since losing the tag team titles last spring to the Chain Gang, the Guerillas have yet to get their feet back under them and regain that magic that won them the titles.

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – And here’s the Tony Tran led Golden BoyZ who earned this spot in this match when they defeated the Lynch Mob a few weeks ago.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – The Golden BoyZ come into this match as the number four contenders with a seven and nine record. These guys have been in a number of world title matches this past year, but have yet to break through and capture the gold. Tonight, they can earn another world title shot, but the Guerillas have the same thing in mind. Everything is on the line for both teams tonight.

[ Tanga Loa sends Dave Anderson into the ropes and goes for a back body drop, but Dave Anderson counters it with a sunset flip bomb from out of nowhere!!! Dave rolls Tanga up as Todd Sinclair counts ...1 ...2 ...and Tanga grabs the bottom rope just in time!!! ]

Tanga Loa nails Dave Anderson with a Cradle DDT. Tanga Loa rolls Dave Anderson up as Todd Sinclair counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Dave gets his shoulder up!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Back and forth both teams go right now and I would have to say that Dave Anderson needs to tag out to Jake. Things are not looking good for him right now. He’s been in this match a very long time.
[ Dave Anderson tags out to Jake Anderson. Tanga Loa and Tama Tonga whip Jake Anderson into the ropes and they hit Jake Anderson with a double clothesline. Tama Tonga leaves the ring.

They have been terrorizing the Caribbean and Central America for months and now they are in Travis Blake’s back pocket?! Are they the newest members of the Bullet Club? Are they the ones that attacked the Guerillas two weeks ago? So many unanswered questions!!!
"The Face of the Empire" Travis Blake – Boys, boys, boys, did yah miss me?
[ The Guerillas get up and make their way toward the ring ropes glaring up at Travis and his two hired guns. ]
"The Face of the Empire" Travis Blake – Yeah, I think not. So, now that I have your undivided attention; let me introduce to you your replacements in the Bullet Club. Two men that I know will do anything and everything I tell them to do whenever I tell them to do it...
[ He pauses and smiles. ]
"The Face of the Empire" Travis Blake – ...and the guys that whooped your asses a few weeks ago, 25 to Life!!!

"The Face of the Empire" Travis Blake – That’s a wrap, boys. Let’s leave these losers to cry in their own beer.
[ Travis and 25 to Life walk off the stage as the Guerillas watch pissed off. ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – I have to believe that these men will meet again very soon down the road and there will be hell to pay for what they did to them.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Another screw job by that son of a bitch Travis Blake costing the Guerillas another match. At some point those boys are gonna get their hands on Travis and there’s gonna be hell to pay. Folks, let’s go to the back where Maxwell Shaw is standing by with Felix Escobar and his Cartel.
[ The videotron comes on as it shows Felix Escobar standing next to Maxwell Shaw with Mil Muertes, Blood Hunter and Pedro Supremo standing behind him. ]
Maxwell Shaw – Felix, in just six nights at Last Rites; you will be forced to face your brother...
[ Felix wags his finger at Maxwell. ]
“The Raven” Felix Escobar – Please, please Maxwell; he is my step-brother.
Maxwell Shaw – Very well, your step-brother. But that doesn’t dispute the fact that the winner of this match will not only walk to the pay window, but they will also get a roster spot.
[ And Maxwell points right at Felix. ]
Maxwell Shaw – Your roster spot to be exact.
[ Felix chuckles and looks smug. ]
“The Raven” Felix Escobar – And what makes anyone think that he has the ability to beat me? Is it because he was the United States Heavyweight Champion? NO. Is it because he formed the first Cartel? NO. He failed at being the US champion. He failed at being the leader of the Cartel. For years my brother has been marred with failure after failure after failure.
[ He pulls his suit coat tight. ]
“The Raven” Felix Escobar – I am the future of the Cartel. I will lead my father’s cartel, his company, his legacy into the future. And my brother, my dear, dear brother; he will be left with nothing.
[ Felix motions for Pedro to step up. ]
Pedro Supremo – Maverick, you and Godzilla have made a joke of the Empire. Tonight, I notch my first victory with your blood. The jokes on you fly boy!!!
[ The show cuts back to Phillip and Caristico at the announcer’s table. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Strong words coming out of the Cartel, but you cannot tell me that Felix isn’t shitting his pants right now knowing that he could lose his roster spot back to his half-brother Tito at the pay per view.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – He’s absolutely shitting his pants for just that reason and the fact that daddy is coming too. He’s got the full-blown shits.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, we have not seen Go-D since his loss at Blackout, but here he is tonight in all his glory!!! Go-D is back!!!
[ “Unforgiven” by Creed starts up and the crowd seems shocked as Go-D comes walking out and stops and looks over the crowd. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Go-D has returned for the first time since his defeat at the hands of Tank Edge a couple weeks ago.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico - I'm sure that was a tough loss for him and I'm curious as what he has to say about his career coming to an end.
[ Go-D stays at the top of the ramp and has a microphone. ]
Go-D - I'm not here to talk about Tank Edge ending my career, because it's not time to dwell on the past. And maybe Tank was right, it isn't my time anymore, it's probably not his time anymore either and he'll soon come to realize that. But that's not important right now, right now I want to talk about the future, and how sometimes our past can haunt our futures. When I beat Prophet and took his world title and then his precious book, and apparently; I unleashed a not too deeply buried psychosis within his mind. Now, he's decided to come after my protégé Conner and try and mess with him. He kidnapped his girlfriend, forced him into a couple title matches, screwed my tag team out of their belts and convinced one of them to walk away and quit and he cost Conner his shot at winning the emperors crown tournament. Now if I had been around, maybe I could have helped Conner keep his cool. I would have made sure Havok wasn't interfering in the tag title match. I failed my men by not being here. But I wasn't at home crying into my pillow over my career being over. I was out exploring and searching for new talent and finding a new attitude for Legacy to go forth. So now, I present to you; with his new manager Texas Worley, “The Cowboy from Hell” the Empire TV champion, Conner Edge!!!
[ “Cowboys from Hell” starts up as smoke rises and out walks a buxom blond women dressed in skimpy leather. She falls to her knees and spreads her arms as Conner Edge, now with a shaved head and trimmed beard walks out behind her. He holds his TV title high and Texas leans into him. He places a hand on her shoulder as Go-D smiles. ]
Go-D - New girl, new look but the same bad ass who's focused and ready for you Prophet. Now, with Shogun packing his bags and heading home, I didn't want to leave these guys a man short, but like I said, I'd been scouting for talent. I found this guy in a flea market wrestling for pennies, but he was without a doubt one of the best talents I've ever seen. And going forward, with Rasputin to guide him, he will become a major player in the world of wrestling. I give you, INOSUKE!!!
[ “Rumbling” by SiM starts up and out walks a handsome and muscular young Japanese man, he's followed by Rasputin Ito wearing a Titan mask. They pose between Conner and Go-D. ]
Go-D - This is the new Legacy. This is the future of wrestling and I'm here to guide them to greatness.
[ Scene goes backstage where we see Mitch Fierce and his girlfriend Aoife Valkyrie in street clothes exiting the dressing room Mitch with his arm around Aoife as "Pure Gold" Alexander Stone walks up to Mitch and Aoife. Mitch smirks at Alex. ]
World Six-man Tag Team Champion “The Fierce One" Mitch Fierce - You were robbed of a clean win last week. Travis just couldn’t keep his nose out of your business. He clocked you a good one which I know you’re pissed off about. You want to face the best in this tournament, leave no doubt what Travis did he has to pay for tonight, Alex
World Six-man Tag Team Champion "Pure Gold" Alexander Stone - I’m going to break his bony ass in two! When I’m finished with Travis tonight nobody is going to be able to recognize him.
World Six-man Tag Team Champion “The Fierce One" Mitch Fierce - Fuck Travis. Fuck him up Stone. Shut his damn mouth. Do everybody a favor and kick this assholes ass
[ Mitch looks into the camera. ]
World Six-man Tag Team Champion “The Fierce One" Mitch Fierce - Fuck you, Steve. You aren’t ready to face me. You aren’t ready for any title shot let alone a World Heavyweight Championship shot. You’re nothing but a lucky chump that got in because two dropped out. You’re on the train tracks Steve and I’m going to run over you and prove that you didn’t belong in this tournament. I’m coming for you Steve your luck just ran the fuck out. Its go time. You don’t have what it takes to beat me, Steve. I destroy guys like you. The beast unleashed!
[ Mitch walks away with Aoife as we cut to the back and see Maverick is watching TV coverage of the Ukraine-Russian invasion when a figure walks behind him. ]
The United States Heavyweight and World Cruiserweight Champion Godzilla Sanchez - Dude, you can't keep watching this stuff.
World Six-man Tag Team Champion “Lieutenant” Maverick Edge - I spent the better part of my military experience escorting spy planes over Russian installments, it's hard not to feel invested. Plus, I got Ukrainian heritage.
The World Heavyweight Champion “The Ring General” Tank Edge - No you don't. Your dad's Irish- English and your mom's German-whore, or Welsh whatever.
World Six-man Tag Team Champion “Lieutenant” Maverick Edge - Huh, didn't know that.
The World Heavyweight Champion “The Ring General” Tank Edge - She often said your dad looked Canadian... although fuck if I know what that means. Godzilla, why are you dressed like Baby from Dirty Dancing.
[ We pull the camera back and see Godzilla in the full Baby get up. ]
World Six-man Tag Team Champion “Lieutenant” Maverick Edge - Does this mean?
The United States Heavyweight and World Cruiserweight Champion Godzilla Sanchez - Oh Yeah!!!
World Six-man Tag Team Champion “Lieutenant” Maverick Edge - The return of EMPIRESHOP.COM commercials!!!!
[ We cut to Godzilla and Z.O.E., who's dressed as Patrick Swayze, as they dance on the stage. Maverick and Aoife are singing the song as ZOE leaps off the stage and dances down the aisle. ]
World Six-man Tag Team Champion “Lieutenant” Maverick Edge - Just remember, you’re the one thing.
Aoife Valkyrie - I can't get enough of. So, tell me something.
[ ZOE stands in the aisle and looks to Godzilla, he nods and runs down the aisle. ]
Together - THIS COULD BE LOVE! BECAUSE, I'VE HAD THE TIME OF MY LIFE, AND I'VE BEEN THROUGH EVERY OPEN DOOR, ITS THE TRUTH AND I OWE IT ALL TO YOU.
[ Aoife Valkyrie and Maverick hold hands as they sing that last part as Mitch Fierce walks in. ]
World Six-man Tag Team Champion “The Fierce One" Mitch Fierce - What is with the music I'm trying to nap.
[ He sees Maverick and Aoife holding hands and lets out a primal scream. Godzilla and ZOE stop dancing and stare as Mitch grabs Maverick and lifts him over his head. ]
Aoife Valkyrie - No Mitchell, I love him.
[ Maverick gives her a concerned look and she just smiles and laughs as Mitch tosses Maverick out a window. We find him flying off the edge of a cliff. He puts his glasses on. ]
World Six-man Tag Team Champion “Lieutenant” Maverick Edge - Why am I not panicked you ask, it's because new to Empireshop.com is Empire pillow buddies.
[ Maverick lands in a splash and up in the air shoot pillow buddies or Alex Stone, Godzilla, Travis Blake, Tank Edge, Aoife, Millie McKenzie. As Maverick lays on the ground he looks to the camera. ]
World Six-man Tag Team Champion “Lieutenant” Maverick Edge - And for all you anime freaks, that aren't those freaky bizarre Lolli lovers, new sexy pillow cases
[ The screen shows pillow cases of the male and female rosters mostly naked on them. ]
World Six-man Tag Team Champion “Lieutenant” Maverick Edge - And new shirts like Maverick Edge: The top Gun, Godzilla and ZOE: Crazy love, Tank Edge- Go-D killer, Travis Blake means Bathroom Break and more at Empireshop.com.
[ We cut back to the stage area as Mitch is now singing, a little off key, with Aoife. ]
World Six-man Tag Team Champion “The Fierce One" Mitch Fierce and Aoife Valkyrie - I HAD THE TIME OF MY LIFE, AND I OWE IT ALL TO EMPIRESHOP.COM
[ The scene cuts back to the announce table as we see the two announcers laughing. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – All I have to say is wow. It amazes me every time we see one of these EMPIRESHOP.COM segments and the awesome work that all the men and women put in to bring us these segments.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – It just goes to show you that our superstars here in the Empire are more than just wrestlers, they truly are entertainers in their own right. But let’s get serious here for a moment. The Cartel is on their heels right now as we know for certain that the leader of the Cartel will be showing up at the pay per view. Tonight, Pedro Supremo has the undaunting task to face Maverick Edge just six nights away from taking on Godzilla for the World Cruiserweight title. Both men need this win tonight for many different reasons.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – That’s right. As much as Godzilla and Maverick are blood brothers, they are going to take that match at the pay per view very seriously. It’s time to get back to the ring. Harvey, it’s all yours; partner.
Pedro Supremo vs Maverick
“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 hailing from Tijuana, Mexico; he weighs in at 210 lbs, this is... Pedro Supremo!!!
[ The crowd goes nuts booing as “Realeza” by Jim Johnston blares across the arena as the Mexican sensations Pedro Supremo of the Cartel make his way out onto the stage. He walks down the rampway before diving into the ring under the bottom rope and pops up onto the middle rope posing for the sold-out crowd. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, Pedro Supremo comes into this match still looking for his first solo win here in the Empire and if you listen to what this young man had to say, he plans on doing it at the expense of Maverick tonight.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – I’m going to be honest, the two biggest mistakes this young man made was getting out of the tag team division and listening to Felix when he stabbed his tag team partner in the back. Los Vipers was a nice young tag team, but once Felix got into his head it was like some sort of mind control.
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – And his opponent. Coming down the aisle, from Anaheim, California and weighing in at 180lbs, this is “Lieutenant” Maverick Edge!!!
[ “Highway to the Danger Zone” blares through the arena as he crowd goes wild. Maverick walks out and poses on the ramp as the winds blow his scarf around and he scans the crowd. He suddenly goes running to the ring as the pyro blows on the ramp behind him like he's trying to outrun a bomber, he suddenly flies in the air over the top rope and lands on his feet. He stands mid-ring and gives the camera a big thumbs up in a smile as two more bomb blasts go off behind him. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Maverick also comes into this match tonight looking for his first victory, but what is even more important tis that he gets out of this match healthy as he has a huge Cruiserweight title match in just six nights against his best friend Godzilla.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Godzilla asked for forgiveness and this match was one of Maverick’s stipulations. That, and Godzilla couldn’t defend himself in his match last week against Steve Scott in the first round of the Emperor’s Crown Tournament. It didn’t end well for Godzilla as he took the DQ loss when Maverick came to his best friends aid stopping Steve Scott from brutalizing his best friend.
[ The referee calls for the bell as the two men walk to the center of the ring and butt heads trying to show each other up. Pedro lashes out and slaps Maverick across the face and then punches Maverick. Pedro attempts an uppercut, but Maverick blocks it and open hand chops Pedro right back and it echoes across the arena. Pedro’s chest is bright red as blood blisters start to form. Pedro strikes back and knife edge chops Maverick followed by a punch that pisses Maverick right off. Maverick drives a European uppercut into Pedro and then attempts an enzuigiri, but Pedro ducks out of the way sending Maverick crashing to the mat. Pedro goes for a back body drop, but Maverick slides off Pedro’s back and lands on his feet going for a front facelock; but Pedro lashes out and grabs the ropes!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Nice counter by Maverick to float over out of that back body drop and lock on a facelock for the attempted submission.
[ Maverick sends Pedro into the corner and drives a corner forearm smash into him. Maverick takes a step or two back and then charges in with a high knee right into Pedro’s gut. Maverick slams Pedro Supremo to the mat and covers him up as Yali Sapphire counts ...1 ...and Pedro shoots his shoulder off the mat. ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Quick cover by Maverick as that high knee just drove all the air out of Pedro’s sails. The young man is gasping for air right now on the mat.
[ Maverick sets Pedro up for the Top Gun (Falcon Arrow), but just as he gets Pedro off his feet; Steve Scott dives under the bottom rope and blasts Maverick Edge in the back with a steel chair shot as Yali Sapphire frantically calls for the bell tossing the match out!!! ]
Time of match: 0:01:43
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The winner of this match by disqualification, Maverick Edge!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What the hell is this psychopath doing?
[ Steve Scott continues to beat down Maverick with the steel chair until it nearly bends in half screaming at him... ]
“Bloodlust” Steve Scott – You stuck your nose in my match? That was your mistake!!! You served Godzilla up to me on a silver platter just to attack me from behind? How does it feel Maverick? How does it feel to be the victim of a sneak attack? How does it feel to get your ass beaten by a better man?! I’m going to break you yah son of a bitch!!!
[ The crowd explodes to their feet as “Ladies and Gentlemen” by Saliva hits over the PA system as Mitch Fierce rushes down to the ring followed by Godzilla and Aoife Valkyrie!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Here comes the rest of the gang!!!
[ Steve Scott looks up and sees the crew coming and he slams the busted chair on the mat egging Mitch to bring it. ]
“Bloodlust” Steve Scott – Come on you son of a bitch!!! You want a piece of me I’ll bust your ass too!!!
[ Mitch dives under the bottom rope sliding into the ring and pops right back up going right at Steve Scott. Steve Scott swings the steel chair and Mitch ducks under the shot and hits the back ropes. Steve Scott turns just in time to get speared right out of his boots!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What a hellacious spear by Mitch Fierce that just folded Steve Scott right in half!!!
[ Mitch grabs the top ring ropes and shakes them like a mad man before turning toward the referee begging for him to start the match!!!
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Talk about backfiring right in Steve Scott’s face right now as shit just went sideways for him!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – He’s going to wish that he never touched Maverick when Mitch gets done with his ass. If there’s one thing that Mitch is, it’s loyal to the Three Best Friends!!!
In a Second Round Emperors Crown Tournament Match
Mitch Fierce vs Steve Scott
[ Yali Sapphire calls for the bell as Steve Scott staggers to his feet and Mitch destroys him again with another spear!!! The crowd is going out of their minds as Mitch sets Steve Scott up and wipes him out with the Fierce Bomb (a spinebuster set-up into a fierce Sit-out Powerbomb)!!! Mitch rolls Steve up as Yali Sapphire counts ...1 ...2 ...3!!! ]
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The winner of this match by pin-fall, Mitch Fierce!!!
Time of match: 0:00:08
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Not that I thought that Steve Scott had much of a chance against Mitch Fierce anyway, but this assault was out right embarrassing for him as the match lasted what, ten seconds?
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Eight seconds to be exact. I think we Mitch Fierce just set a new record.
[ Godzilla and Aoife tends to Maverick as the Forgotten are led out on stage led by Reverend Azazel. Aric Cannon, Marc Fulton and Jake Owens look pissed as Azazel tells them to hold back watching as Mitch rolls Steve Scott out of the ring dumping him to the floor disrespectfully. ]
Reverend Azazel – OK, alright; point taken. But we will not forget what you did this day Mitch. The Forgotten will never forget. You wanted our attention, you got it.
[ Mitch smiles, and then flips Azazel off and now it’s the rest of the Forgotten that have to hold Azazel back from rushing the ring and starting a fight with a man twice his size!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Reverend Azazel better think twice about walking into Mitch Fierces world. That man has chewed up everyone that has climbed into that ring.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Whether it’s Alexander Stone or Travis Blake, the finals in the tournament is going to be incredible as Mitch Fierce just punched his ticket to Last Rites. I cannot wait to see the main event tonight to find out just who Mitch is going to face at the pay per view.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Ladies and gentlemen, our main event is just moments away and it’s going to be a blockbuster. Right now, Cindy Meyers is standing by with the former World Champion Alexander Stone. Let’s listen in.
[ The videotron comes on as it shows Cindy Meyers standing next to Alexander Stone who is in his ring gear and looks amped up for this huge match. ]
Cindy Meyers – Alex, thank you for taking a few minutes before your big match tonight. Let’s talk about Travis Blake.
[ Alex puts his hand up stopping her. ]
World Six-man Tag Team Champion "Pure Gold" Alexander Stone – Travis Blake? I’m sick of hearing that piece of shit run his mouth. He keeps yabbing about so much shit it doesn’t even make any sense. Travis, let me give you some advice kid; try staying on topic. Oh, and by the way, you didn’t put me on the shelf; the Guerillas did. Don’t take fucking credit for not having the balls to do it yourself.
Cindy Meyers – It seems that you still have some anger toward him for what he did, breaking up the Gold Standard?
World Six-man Tag Team Champion "Pure Gold" Alexander Stone – Angry? No, I’m not angry. I’m over it. I’ve had months to digest it. To swallow what they all did to me. Tonight, I put what they did behind me by destroying Travis Blake once and for all. This match isn’t about the Emperor’s Crown Tournament as much as it’s about shutting that little bitch up once and for all.
Cindy Meyers – If you can beat Travis tonight, your next opponent will be also your tag team partner Mitch Fierce. Is that in the back of your mind going into this match tonight?
World Six-man Tag Team Champion "Pure Gold" Alexander Stone – Listen, I told Mitch weeks ago that I wanted to beat the best the Empire could line up in my way. I begged Mitch Fierce to not give up his spot to Felix Escobar because I wanted to beat the best. Mitch and I are on a collision course. I look forward to that match.
Cindy Meyers – Alex, good luck tonight. Guys, back to you.
[ The show cuts back to Phillip and Caristico at the announcers desk. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – You get the feeling this is more about revenge than advancing in the tournament?
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – You know as well as I do that Alex wants to not just beat Travis, but he wants to destroy him. To end this young man’s career just like he tried to do to him months ago and nearly succeeded at. I would hate to be Travis tonight.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Ladies and Gentlemen, what a match we are about to see. The last time Travis Blake and Alexander Stone squared off it was at Summer Stampede back in August where we witnessed the destruction of the Gold Standard and the birth of the Bullet Club. Now, six months later; these two men clash in a second-round match in the Emperor’s Crown Tournament. Let’s get back to the action as Harvey Weinstein is ready to call this incredible match.
In a Second Round Emperors Crown Tournament Match
Travis Blake vs Alexander Stone
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The following is a second round Emperors Crown Tournament match and it is set for one fall with a twenty-minute time limit!! Making his way to the ring hailing from Phoenix, Arizona; he weighs in at 251 lbs. and he is one-third of the World Six-man Tag Team Champions; 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. 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, taking off his jacket and sunglasses off and tossing them to the floor. He mounts the middle turnbuckle and shows off his belt as the fans go nuts!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Here’s the man who captured the Worlds Heavyweight championship after the Empire relaunched back in January. Stone is one of the toughest men on the roster with a fourteen and four record and he’s currently ranked number four in the standings.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – In my opinion, Alexander Stone has been one of the four cornerstones of this company since the Empire reopened. The remaining men in this tournament should be afraid, very afraid of what Stone can do.
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – And his opponent. Making his way to the ring being accompanied by Paul Heyman, he hails from Detroit, MI and weighs in at 175 lbs, this is "The Face of the Empire”, this is… Travis Blake!!!
[ The crowd boos as “Scars that I'm Hiding" by Ashes to New rocks the arena as Travis walks out on stage as Paul Heyman walks closely behind him as they make their way down to the ring!!! Travis climbs in the ring and mounts the middle turnbuckle raising his fist in the air high overhead as Heyman claps for him at ringside. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – It’s incredible as one loss separates these two men and it’s that loss back at Summer Stampede that haunts Stone’s very soul. Tonight, Travis Blake walks into this match attempting to prove to the world that he’s the top star in the Empire, not Stone.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – It’s going to take a miracle to change everyone’s minds about what a jackass this guy has been over the last nine months. My hope for him tonight is that Stone takes his time beating his ass. I wanna see a long-drawn-out ass kicking before he pins him.
[ The referee calls for the bell to start the match and Stone goes right after Blake, who backs up and ducks his head through the ropes, demanding the referee keep Stone back! Stone tries to squeeze past the official to get his hands on Blake only to receive a thumb to the eyes that goes unseen by the referee! The crowd boos as Stone staggers away, trying to regain his vision and here comes Blake, clotheslining Stone in the back of the head knocking him down! Blake unloads with a series of stomps before dragging Stone to his feet and then taking him over again with a snapmare. Stone sits upright as Blake hits the ropes and then comes rocketing back delivering the Weapon X (the Last Shot)!!! Blake goes for the early cover ...1 ...2 ...and Stone powers out!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Travis cannot believe it as Stone just kicked out of the Weapon X!!! You can count on one hand the number of people that have done that.
[ Blake switches things up into a side headlock, grinding it in as the referee gets right in there to ask if Stone wants to give it up. Stone starts feeding off the energy of the crowd to battle his way back to a vertical base, fighting back with some elbows to the ribs; but when he tries to pull free and run at the ropes, Blake grabs a handful of tights to pull Stone back towards him, hooking him up and dropping Stone with a belly-to-back suplex! Blake looks for another cover, pressing his forearm into Stone’s face and the referee counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Stone kicks out!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Travis is pounding his fists on the mat, clearly frustrated that Stone keeps kicking out. Alex has yet to build any momentum in this match.
[ Blake shoots the referee a pissed off glance before dragging Stone up again, dishing out some open hand chops to the chest to back Stone into the corner. Blake grabs Stones arm and looks for an Irish whip, but Stone reverses and charges in after Blake, only to get back body dropped up and over the top rope; and Stone somehow lands on the apron blocking an attempted right hook from Blake before firing off a shot of his own that sends Blake staggering away! Stone leaps to the top rope and delivers a springboard clothesline that takes Blake down! Both superstars get back to their feet, with Stone landing another clothesline and then a third in succession! Blake is on spaghetti legs as he gets up and rests against the ropes, only to receive a fourth clothesline that sends him crashing to the floor! Paul Heyman runs over and tries to help Travis to his feet as Stone watches and waits as Blake to get up before hitting the ropes with and diving off with a car crash crossbody that wipes out both Travis and Paul Heyman!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What the hell are we seeing right now? Alexander Stone has taken to the skies and he just obliterated Travis and Heyman!!!
[ Stone gets back to his feet dragging Blake up and throwing him back inside the ring! Stone climbs back up onto the apron and heads to the corner climbing up, but then Blake suddenly kip-ups back to his feet and connects with a vicious enziguri!!! Stone is rocked as Blake climbs up after him, hooking Stone up for a superplex! Travis tries to lift Stone up, but Stone blocks it before countering with a super gordbuster, dropping Blake chest-first onto the mat! The crowd goes wild as Stone climbs down and hits Blake with a pumphandle powerbomb!!! Stone goes for the cover ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Blake kicks out!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – What a kickout by Travis Blake as the entire ring shook from the impact of that nasty powerbomb!!!
[ Stone drags Blake up and unloads with forearm shots leaves Blake dangling off the ropes. Stone goes for an Irish whip, but Blake holds onto the top rope with his free arm. Stone tries for a second time, but yet again; Blake blocks! Stone fires off a few more forearms before whipping Blake into the ropes and then lowering his head but Blake leaps over and counters with a Canadian Destroyer!!! Stone drags himself over into the corner, but Blake follows up with a running double knee smash to the chest! Blake drags Stone back to the center of the ring and lifts him only to drive him back down with a shoulder breaker!!! Blake goes for the cover as the referee counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Stone kicks out again! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What a match we are seeing so far as Travis has taken control for most of the match tonight. You can tell he’s done his homework coming into this match.
[ Blake can’t believe it, complaining to the referee that his count is too slow; before dragging Stone back up and hooks Stone up for a vertical suplex but Stone drives Blake back-first into the corner, driving in several shoulder shots into Blake to free himself before staggering and then comes charging back in looking for a corner clothesline, but Blake ducks out of the way and Stone crashes into the turnbuckles! Stone drops to one knee as Travis delivers another Weapon X (the Last Shot)!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – What a shot to the head of Alexander Stone as Travis Blake just hit his second Weapon X in this match!!!
[ Blake doesn’t go for the cover as he slides out under the bottom rope and slowly scaling the corner! Blake reaches the top turnbuckle, steadying himself and then dives off going for a Macho Man style elbow drop; but Stone rolls out of the way at the last second and Travis crashes and burns on the mat!!! Both men stagger back to their feet and Blake takes a wild swing back at Stone but Stone ducks the shot and nails him with a belly-to-belly suplex! Blake drags himself over and rests against the bottom rope, just as Stone gets momentum off the far ropes and drives a huge knee right into Blakes head!!! Stone drags Blake back to the center of the ring and goes for the cover as the referee counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Blake just gets his shoulder up!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – My God what a horrific knee shot right to Travis’ face as his head snapped back from the impact!!!
[ Stone drags Blake back up, hooking him from behind and looking for another suplex; but Blake rolls through it and comes off the far ropes like a rocket right at Stone who ducks out of the way and Travis wipes out the referee with a diving crossbody!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – You have to give Stone credit for seeing that coming and reacting so quickly, but Travis just took out the referee and that does not bode well for either man.
[ The referee is out cold as Stone turns around only to have Blake try for a low blow kick, but Stone catches his leg shaking his head and wagging his finger at Travis!!! ]
“Pure Gold” Travis Blake – I don’t think so you son of a bitch!!!
[ Stone flips Blake up and over in a 360° spin and just as Travis lands on his feet again, Stone wipes him out with a clothesline!!! The crowd is going nuts as Stone drags Travis to his feet and sets up for the Stonebreaker (suplex lift into a spinning sidewalk slam), but Travis uses a standing switch and then drives Stone chest-first into the corner!!! Stone staggers out of the corner and is obliterated by a Superkick right to the jaw!! The crowd is booing as Stone drops to all fours and Blake measures Stone up for the Weapon X (the Last Shot), when suddenly; the crowd pops and the owner of the Empire Mark Choquette marches down to the ring with a referee’s shirt on!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Are you kidding me right now? That’s the boss and he’s got a referee’s shirt on!!!
[ Travis’ eyes pop out of his head as he watches Mark roll into the ring smiling at him!!! Mark screams at Travis... ]
The owner of the Empire Mark Choquette – Remember me? I’m the guy you super kicked in the face!!!
[ Travis never sees it coming as Stone gets up and blasts him from behind with a double-axe handle smash!!! Stone signals for the end as drags Blake up and annihilates him with the Stonebreaker (suplex lift into a spinning sidewalk slam)!!! Stone rolls Travis up grabbing both legs as the Mark counts ...1 ...2 ...3!!! ]
“The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The winner of this match by pin-fall, Alexander Stone!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What a match folks!!! We now have the finals of the Emperors Crown Tournament set and it is going to be...
[ Just then, as Mark raises Alexander Stone’s arm in victory; a massive man comes in from behind and blasts them both to the mat with a double clothesline!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – That’s Taven Cross!!! What the hell is he doing here?!
[ Mark is out cold as Stone tries to get to his feet, but Taven obliterates him with the Final Judgement (F5)!!! Travis grabs the mic from Harvey and kneels down right in Marks face. ]
“The Face of the Empire” Travis Blake – You think you can screw me over?! You think you have all the power around here?! I’m the fucking “Face of the Empire” you son of a bitch!!!
[ Taven locks Stone in the Tainted Dreams (The Hurt Lock Submission) as Travis chokes the hell out of Mark with his boot when suddenly Aoife Valkyrie, Maverick, Godzilla and Mitch Fierce rush the ring and dive in. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Hang in there, helps on the way!!!
[ Travis pulls Taven off of Stone and they roll out of the ring walking off laughing. Back in the ring, Mitch helps Stone to his feet as Godzilla and Maverick help Mark up. Stone holds the back of his neck as he shoves Mitch off of him. ]
World Six-man Tag Team Champion “The Fierce One" Mitch Fierce - What the fucks your problem?!
[ Aoife gets between them putting her arms up trying to keep the two Alpha males apart!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – You think Stone’s tired of getting hit from behind? It looks like he’s losing trust in everyone right now!!!
[ Mitch isn’t taking any shit as he tries to go at Stone, but now Maverick and Godzilla step between them and the crowd goes nuts hoping to see a fight right now!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, I don’t think we will have to wait until the pay per view!!! These guys wanna go at it right now!!!
[ The show goes off the air as Stone and Fierce continue shouting profanities at each other!!! ]
TO BE CONTINUED...
