Xcite opened to President Swift standing in the middle of the ring to address the ravenous fans, and ravenous meaning hungry for wrestling, not brains, because as usual Doctor Z was keeping the undead fans pacified with fly honey.

Swift: Welcome to Xcite! This is the home of the true superstars of wrestling, because I don’t play second fiddle to nobody! EBW had a split recently, but that just made my job a little easier, cause I got the roster I wanted on the show I truly care about, and now I pound that sucka over on ENT into the ground! We do have a show coming up this weekend, where worlds will collide. It’s called Radical Dreamers, and I want all the Xcite fans to show up and show support! We’re battling to show who has the better brand, but we’re also battling for those World Team Rings, because whomever has the rings, has “The Storm”, and I WANT THAT SHOW! Ike Madamle, you brought he Glads in to prove they were the best, and now I want you to back that up. Put your money where your mouth is. If you want to see EBW talent on Eagleland Gladiators, then they’d better bring those rings home to Xcite! That’s not the only match where we want to see a win though, because I have a big announcement to make. Gonna open this show right. We have a jumper! No, not on top of the building! That was poorly phrased! Shut up! A “Renegade” found out it’s better to be an “Xciter” and he’s made the jump! “The Rumble” should have made sure he signed on the dotted line, but now we’ve got him. The one and only-




CP Munk made his way out to a mixed response as he basked in it. LG Rod and Randy no Kachi weren’t far behind, holding up Munk merch and singing his praises as being “Best in the World”.  

CP Munk: IT’S MUNKENING TIME! Just when you think you have all the answers, I change the culture! Xcite is the TRUE brand of professional wrestling! It’s not the B-Show like that other place, and I promise to bring home a win for Xcite at Radical Dreamers on my way to earning something that TRULY belongs to me…the main event of Victory Explosion.

Swift: If you say so, but-

?: ♫Adrenaline, in my soul, bibbity bip bip Colby Roads!♫

Colby Roads: Hello CP Munk, perhaps you know me from the penumbra of your unconscious mind…or maybe you’ve seen me on television, but the point is I’m Colby Roads, and I’m here…to help YOU….FINISH….THE….STORY!

CP Munk: …What the hell are you talking about?

Colby Roads: I too have had my hopes, dreams, and backhanded tactics to get what I wanted dashed by others! My story got interrupted! All that matters is my story! I know how to write it, and it’s without any subtext! I know writers who use subtext, and they’re all cowards! The Eagleland Cheese will have his day, but so will you. The two of us are an unstoppable duo who look out for our own self interests, and care little to none about the well being of others, while at the same time trying to get these stupid mark fans to love us!

CP Munk: You weren’t kidding about no subtext. You’re being autistically literal right now. However, I’ll gladly take the help in my corner at Radical Dreamers. We’ll go out there together and FINISH! THE! STORY!

Swift: …What the hell just happened? Did I sign Colby Roads? When did I do that? WHY would I do that?


"Yngwie Malmsteen - My Resurrection"



Larry Grim: Welcome to Threed! It smells like death and fly honey, so it must be Zombie U, and it’s time for another installment of Xcite!

Apple Kid: How come you never smell like death?

Larry Grim: I go through a bone bleaching process every few months, and I slather on the body spray.

Apple Kid: Smells great!

Larry Grim: Thanks! We have a BIG show tonight, as in the main event, two forces of awesome goodness will collide in the spirit of competition, as Geoff Garrett, the reigning Mars Champion takes on Jammer, the VBW Champion. It is TITLE FOR TITLE! Geoff is already a double champion. Could he be looking to add another to his illustrious waist, or will Jammer hit another slam dunk and become a double champ himself?

Apple Kid: Show is packed from top to bottom. Our third commentary friend is in action tonight too, as she and her bestie Usagi Tsukino join forces to take on Gianna Rambaldi and a mystery partner. We’ll also see Magnum PT taking on Rains, Mav Valentine taking on Vape, and the return of a heated rivalry between Bashin Dan and Razorblade. However, we’re kicking things off with “Absolutely Flawless” Jaden Yuki taking on the returning Troy. Can you believe that big brutish bully is back!? He got arrested for murder and sent to prison! How is he out so quickly!?

Larry Grim: It was an intern.

Apple Kid: Right! I forgot. Shoot, that’s basically a slap on the wrist offense. He might as well have killed a Black Shirt.

Larry Grim: Let’s get the action started and do it to it!

EBW: Xcite
Zombie U, Threed
ENN

1. Singles: Troy vs. Jaden Yuki
-Opening match saw the fun-loving good guy, Jaden Yuki, and the recently released-from-prison brute, Troy battle it out. Jaden Yuki was known for his charismatic demeanor and self-assured attitude, often boasting about his "flawless" abilities. Troy, on the other hand, was a menacing figure, fueled by anger and brutality. The bell rang, and the match began with Jaden Yuki entering the ring, his signature confident grin on display. He wasted no time in engaging the crowd, hyping them up. The fans cheered for the charismatic Jaden. Troy, on the other hand, made his entrance accompanied by his manager, the devious Preacher Ra. The imposing brute exuded an aura of danger, his recent time in prison clearly having left its mark on him. As the match kicked off, Jaden Yuki's high-flying, acrobatic style was on full display. He dazzled the audience with flips, spins, and aerial maneuvers, proving his agility and showmanship. Troy, however, was unfazed by Jaden's display, his brute strength allowing him to absorb the flashy offense. Troy began to assert his dominance with powerful strikes and devastating slams, targeting Jaden's body with ruthless precision. The crowd's cheers for Jaden slowly turned to concern as it became evident that Troy was not to be underestimated. Preacher Ra, always lurking at ringside, seized an opportunity to distract the referee, allowing him to slip a foreign object to Troy. With a sinister grin, Troy used the foreign object to deliver a low blow to Jaden, bringing him to his knees in agony. The audience's mood shifted from excitement to anger as Troy continued his relentless assault on Jaden Yuki, punishing him with a series of brutal moves. Jaden's "flawless" persona was being tested to its limits. In the climactic moment of the match, Troy, with the assistance of Preacher Ra, executed a vicious punt kick to Jaden's head. The impact was thunderous, leaving Jaden sprawled out on the mat. 1-2-3! Troy emerged victorious in this brutal encounter, thanks in part to the underhanded tactics of Preacher Ra.
Winner: Troy via Punt Kick - >Pin

Larry Grim: Wow! That Troy has never been more dangerous! I’m serious folks, that’s not hype. I’m legit concerned here, and I’m a skeleton man.

Apple Kid: What do you reckon? Android?

Larry Grim: What?

Apple Kid: It would make sense! I haven’t seen him eat or drink anything since he arrived at 5pm and it’s 8:30 now.

Larry Grim: …Moving on, as Dan comes out to help scrape Jaden off the mat, we have a Women’s tag match, and the winners will take on Siren and Ice, the current champs and Eagleland Gladiators. The Sailor Sensations Makoto and Usagi will team up to take on Gianna Rambaldi and…wait…I’m just hearing word…it’s gonna be Hilda Iceheart?!

Apple Kid: Hilda?! She helped Erica beat Christina last week! Now she’s teaming with the Violet Princess herself?! What’s going on here?! So much question mark followed by exclamation mark?! AH!

2. EBW Women’s Tag Team #1 Contender: Makoto Kino/Usagi Tsukino vs. Gianna Rambaldi/Hilda Iceheart
-The next match saw the beloved team of Makoto Kino and Usagi Tsukino against the villainous duo of Gianna Rambaldi and Hilda Iceheart. The winning team would move on to face off with Siren and Ice, the Eagleland Gladiators. All eyes were on Hilda Iceheart, who helped Erica beat Christina Angel for the EBW Women's Championship last week, and had yet to explain why. The match began with Makoto Kino and Gianna Rambaldi starting things off. Makoto, known for her strength and martial arts prowess, was met with a series of underhanded tactics from Gianna, who at this point completely dropped the pretense of a neutral Euroland princess. She quickly tagged in Hilda Iceheart. Hilda, with her crafty and cold demeanor, engaged in a calculated game of one-upmanship with Makoto. The two competitors exchanged powerful strikes and grappling maneuvers, each trying to assert their dominance in the ring. Usagi Tsukino, watching from the apron, was eager to get into the match and help her partner, but Hilda and Gianna's teamwork kept Makoto isolated from her corner. The duo continued to wear down Makoto, focusing on her vulnerable moments. As the match progressed, Makoto managed to break free from Hilda's clutches and made a desperate crawl toward her corner, hoping to tag in Usagi. The crowd rallied behind her, urging her on. Just as Makoto was about to make the tag, the unexpected happened. Tracy Angel, who had been lurking at ringside, suddenly entered the ring and delivered a vicious chair shot to the back of Makoto's head as the ref was distracted. The impact was deafening, and Makoto crumpled to the mat. Hilda scooped Makoto up for the Northern Lights Bomb, and pinned her for the win.
Winner: Gianna Rambaldi/Hilda Iceheart[o] via Northern Lights Bomb on Makoto Kino -> Pin

Larry Grim: A win for Gianna and Hilda, because of Tracy’s actions! She hit Makoto hard! She looks livid at Makoto, but she’s changed her demeanor with the fans, trying to justify herself as defending her marriage.

Apple Kid: Hard to do when you’re holding a bloody chair.

Larry Grim: Poor Makoto. She’s just trying to balance her careers without Tracy constantly snapping on her like that!

Apple Kid: What is the story with Gianna and Hilda. They’re the new #1 Contenders, and yet we don’t really know what brought them together.

Larry Grim: Wait, is that EBW Women’s Champion Erica watching from the stage?

Apple Kid: Oh…that probably explains it.

Larry Grim: Yeah…yeah. That could be troublesome. Next up though….some of whatever this is!

Basketball Court

Jammer was seen running to dunk and basket and failing horribly. He noticed the Lakitu was there and quickly composed himself.

Jammer: Hey Xciters! Just get fired up for the match tonight! You’re gonna see me and Geoff Garrett go all out! Mars Championship is a big deal, and a lot of people are clamoring for it, even former World Champions such as myself. Afterall, I’m fairly certain Mars is another world in of itself, unless some scientist decided to kick over the sand castle like they did with Pluto. That’s still a planet, I don’t care what they say. There are rebels, and there are innovators. I am a rebel. I am a rebel against conventional logic and a rebel against the world order, and if that’s an innovator I don’t know what is….wait.

Behind Jammer in the distance was a cheerleader dancing with pom poms as Vape approached.

Vape: Hello m'lady *bows*. I'll admit, I typically don't fancy 3d women but.. *eyes light up* YOU'RE SO KAWAII! Heh, if you couldn't tell I'm an anime expert. That being said.. How about you give me your number so we can have a very sugoi anime date!

Cheerleader: AHHH! GET AWAY FROM ME!

Jammer: Eh? *sigh* That’s Vape of course. He’s got his own trials tonight. He’s uh…a dangerous man Mav. Better be careful? I uh…I call him uh…the uh…Orson Welles of wrestling, and no, that’s not just because of his weight. He’s a uh…titan of terror? I call him that too. Yeah…I’m not buying it either. Sorry.

Vape: Are you making fun of me? That’s it, no more mister nice guy! The demon is consuming me!

Jammer: That’s just your acid reflux.

Vape: Oh right…better take a pill. Thanks.

3. Singles: Magnum PT vs. Rains
-Next up, the swarthy lothario good guy, Magnum PT of the Weekend Wrecking Crew took on the enigmatic purple ninja, Rains, known for his signature fist-cocking gesture and precipitation naturally. Magnum PT, with his distinctive mullet and chest hair, entered the ring to a chorus of cheers from the fans. Rains, shrouded in his mysterious ninja attire, remained enigmatic, exuding an aura of mystique, although he tripped a few times on the way to the ring. As the match got underway, Magnum PT wasted no time in showcasing his charisma and crowd-pleasing moves. He engaged the audience, playfully flaunting his chest hair and mullet while taunting his opponent. Rains, in contrast, maintained his stoic ninja persona. He moved with speed and precision, dodging Magnum PT's initial flurry of attacks with ease. Rains' unconventional fighting style was the exact reason he's a former #EVER Champion and not because of random luck. Magnum PT executed a series of high impact slams and flashy strikes, keeping Rains on the defensive. Rains countered Magnum PT's moves with calculated strikes and swift takedowns, showing his agility. Problem is, he kept cocking his fist and signaling when he planned to his his spear or "BIG DRIZ" punches. PT dodged and hit a kick to the midsection, followed by the Mustache Ride to seal the deal.
Winner: Magnum PT via Mustache Ride -> Pin

After the match, as Magnum PT celebrated with Dungaree Danson and Brunson Burner, Blue Rains appeared from a cloud of mist at ringside, and went on the attack against Rains. The Red Shirts appeared to help break up the action.

Backstage

Makoto Kino: Ow…my head. Despite the blow to the back of my head by Tracy, I’m still here doing my job, because I don’t quit, and I don’t give up. I especially had to be here to talk to Tack Angel, whose wife really really doesn’t like me.

Tack Angel: I am so sorry Makoto, I don’t understand what’s going on with her. I really don’t. I’m trying to figure it out. She thinks…I’m in love with you or something? She knows we’re married and I’m faithful, and I would NEVER split my heart like that.

Makoto Kino: Well…she’s had quite the mean streak in the past.

Tack Angel: I blame her Mom…who is married to Tali’s Dad…who isn’t a nice guy either.

Makoto Kino: I’m sorry, we’re supposed to be talking about the main event tonight.

Tack Angel: I’d rather not. I’d rather talk about you….your injury I mean. I really think you should let Doc Degrees take a look at it. Will you come with me after this please?

Makoto Kino: Sure…I’d go anywhere with you…uh…because you’re a trustworthy hero of the people, who all love you of course! Haha!

Tack Angel: The people love you too! I’ve been a fan of yours for a long time.

Makoto Kino: *blush* Um…I really do need to talk to you about the main event though. I don’t want the President to flip a table or anything. So tonight Geoff Garrett-

Tack Angel: Ugh.

Makoto Kino: The Mars Champion-

Tack Angel: No he’s not.

Makoto Kino: Will take on VBW Champion Jammer.

Tack Angel: He’s better, but it should be me.

Makoto Kino: It’ll be title for title. Are you excited to see your good friend defend that belt tonight?

Tack Angel: I want the next shot. I should have this shot, but I want the next shot.

Makoto Kino: I’m assuming you’re talking about the EBW Championship? You’re laser focused aren’t you? That’s impressive! Very very impressive! Wow, even now he’s scouting Dan and Raju, and planning to step up to be the next in line, while surely confident that his friend Geoff will carry the Mars Championship with honor and dignity.

Tack Angel: That’s my title.

Makoto Kino: Well that does it for me, so yes Tack, I’ll let you take me to Degrees.

Tack Angel: G-Great! Let’s go. Be careful. Walk slowly.

4. Singles: Mav Valentine vs. Vape
-Mav Valentine entering the ring with a confident swagger. He oozed charisma and self-assuredness. On the opposite side was Vape, whose goofy demeanor and unorthodox antics often left fans amused and bewildered. In some cities, a large portion of the fanbase might even have a restraining order against him. From the start, Mav controlled the pace of the match with his impressive wrestling skills and in-ring presence. He executed a series of fluid moves, showcasing his time with Blood 4 Blood and technical prowess. He was struggling to lift Vape, but he was able to take him off his feet. The crowd was firmly behind the cool and cocky good guy as he dominated the early moments of the match. Vape, on the other hand, struggled to keep up with Mav's athleticism. He stumbled and fumbled, his goofy demeanor on full display. Despite his best efforts, Vape's inexperience and clumsiness were evident as he found himself in awkward situations throughout the match. As the match progressed, Vape attempted to mount a comeback, but his comedic missteps continued to hinder his efforts. Mav capitalized on Vape's mistakes, using them to his advantage. He fired up and hit a body slam that got the crowd on their feet. He landed on Vape for the pinfall.
Winner: Mav Valentine via Body Slam -> Pin

Mav Valentine: That’s another win for the Mavster baby! Nickname is being workshopped, I promise that’s not the final cut! I’m bring the heat Xciters, and I doubt there is anyone who can match this charisma in all of-




Jackson Kain: Not so fast pal! You’re forgetting someone aren’t you?

Apple Kid: THAT’S JACKSON KAIN! The movie star, turned hero, turned champion, turned pirate king! What is he doing here?

Larry Grim: Turns out his agent finally found him on the high seas, and brought him back to the tinsel town AND EBW with a big fat contract!

Apple Kid: Oh wow! What about his pirate crew?

Larry Grim: Actually getting paid to be his FX crew and stage hands on his next big film project!

Apple Kid: Neat!

Jackson Kain: You’re a tough kid, that’s true, and you got that cocky attitude, that reminds me of….well me, but let’s get something straight. Until you prove yourself as the new hotness, you’re just a facsimile of the real deal sex appeal. How about you try me on for size before you go claiming yourself as the star of Xcite eh?

Mav Valentine: Jackson Kain! All the stars are out tonight huh? Pulling out all the stops to beat the other guys, but the truth is, all you need is me. I’m more than happy to meet you in the ring, but not with the rust you got on ya. Prove you’re still the super star you claim you are. Stage that big comeback like you’re trying to do in Tinsel Town, and you’ve got a match pal.

Larry Grim: Wow! Jackson Kain vs. Mav Valentine is surely a match I want to see!

Apple Kid: Why are you ready that cue card?

Larry Grim: Look who is holding it.

Swift: *angry glare* Read the *bleep* sign!

Apple Kid: I too can not wait for this out of this world, super star experience!

Backstage

Preacher Ra was with his two monsters, Troy and Razorblade.

Preacher Ra: Dig this my boys, “The Rizz Is”, and it’s time people start to understand that, ya dig? The Rizz Is. You’ve got it, and I’ve got it, cause you’re on my team. If I got you, and you’ve got Rizz, then I must have quite a lot of Rizz. We need everyone to understand what that means, and when you go out there, you got out there with Rizz. Ya know, when I was told that my wife left me for THE Ted Nelson, I might have gone off the deep end a little bit. I mean, when the coroner told me what happened to Mrs. Ra, I could barely finish my lunch. I might have opened up a few hellish puzzle boxes and smoked a lot of DMT with Alison Chain. Might have spent too much time with a rad dude who audited. None of that matters now. Just keep this in mind, as you go out there and take on Bashin Dan. Razor my man, I’m behind ya 110%, which means I could double back 10% and still be completely behind you. Ya dig?

Razorblade: Whatever you say. Just point me to the ring, and I’m going to finally give that little punk the bruise to his ego that he deserves. This has been a LONG time coming!

Preacher Ra: Right that way my man. Haha. How about you Troy. How ya feelin?

Troy: *bleep*

Preacher Ra: Oh that’s definitely getting censored!

5. Singles: Bashin Dan vs. Razorblade
-The semi-main event saw "Dangerous Player" Bashin Dan and the rule-breaking Razorblade from VBW clash once again. The animosity between the two competitors had reached a boiling point. Razorblade, the rule-breaker from VBW, entered the ring with a sinister grin, his disdain for Dan evident. He had grown increasingly frustrated with Dan's ability to outshine him in the past, and this match was his opportunity for revenge. From the start, Bashin Dan took control of the match, using his explosive athleticism and in-ring skills to dazzle the audience. Razorblade, desperate to gain an advantage, resorted to underhanded tactics, breaking rules and bending them to his advantage. He used illegal holds, foreign objects, and even eye pokes to try to gain the upper hand. The tension in the arena escalated as the match grew more physical and personal. Bashin Dan's resilience and popularity with the fans only fueled his determination to triumph over the rule-breaking Razorblade. However, the climax of the match took a shocking turn when Troy rushed into the ring. With a vicious punt kick to the head, Troy targeted Bashin Dan, sending him sprawling to the canvas in agony. The referee had no choice, but to call for the disqualification, and the bell rang to signal the end of the match.
Winner: Bashin Dan via DQ

Larry Grim: Dan is fighting for his life here! Razorblade doesn’t seem to care about the loss, he just wants to get his hands on Dan. Jaden Yuki and Vape are limping out to help, but Troy is fighting them off effortlessly. Here comes Jammer to fight off Razorblade. He just blasted him with the VBW title he covets so much. Razor and Troy are finally backing off.

Apple Kid: Things are getting crazy around here! We might need more Red Shirts before long!

Larry Grim: Well, Jammer is helping Dan to the back, but he’ll be right back out here for the main event. Coming up, the highly anticipated match up, but first…THIS!

Eagleland Gladiators Locker Room

Sabre was lifting weights, with Tower as his spotter.

Sabre: 8-9-10! You see that? 450lbs! I made that look easy! That’s what Gladiators do! We’re the biggest and the best. My man Tower here is the true Tower of Power, and I’m the most dangerous man you could ever come across. Laser is committed to seeing it through, and Turbo is…well don’t mess with that guy. He might legit kill you. We’re not like Viper. We’re committed to working together to claim those rings and prove our superiorit-

Suddenly, the door to the locker room was kicked open, as Zyro Kurogane, Mike Thunder, Johnny Starbound, and Isiah Muscle came in and attacked with pipes, chairs, and anything not bolted down. Kurogane held the weights down on Sabre’s chest as she looked down at him.

Zyro Kurogane: Greetings from Havok! This is a message from Samurai Ifrit. You will NEVER get these rings! When we let it rip at Radical Dreamers, the Eagleland Gladiators are going to be shown as the dull, dimwitted, roided out, facsimile of athletes that they truly are!

-

Larry Grim: Whoa! Get more security in there fast! It’s been a wild night hasn’t it?

Apple Kid: We’re not done yet. We still have the MAIN EVENT!

Larry Grim: Geoff Garrett versus Jammer! Title for Title! Let’s do it to it!
 
6. EBW Mars Championship/VBW Championship Title for Title: Geoff Garrett(c) vs. Jammer(c)
-Geoff Garrett, the EBW Mars Champion, known for wielding a guitar and his signature Jackie Fargo strut, faced off against Jammer, the VBW Champion, a baller and fan favorite in his own right. The stakes were high as both titles were on the line, and the match had no rules due to the VBW Championship. The crowd was electric with anticipation as the two champions made their entrances. Geoff Garrett strutted down the aisle with his guitar in hand, soaking in the cheers from his loyal fans. Jammer, equally beloved by the crowd, brought an aura of swagger as he made his way to the ring. As the bell rang, the match began with both champions circling each other in the ring, a mutual respect evident between them. The audience was treated to a display of technical wrestling and athleticism as Geoff and Jammer exchanged holds and reversals. Despite the lack of rules, the match remained mostly respectable between the two champions. They engaged in a competitive and evenly matched contest, each trying to prove their superiority. As the match reached its climax, the two were using weapons, but Double G's guitar was left pristine until now. Razorblade ran back down to the ring to mess with Jammer, while Tack Angel ran down to back up his good friend Double G seemingly, by grabbing the Mars Championship, clutching it tightly to protect it like a good friend. Geoff Garrett spotted an opportunity to use his guitar as a weapon as Jammer and Razor talked trash. With a shocking guitar shot over the head of Jammer, the arena reverberated with the sound of the impact. Jammer staggered, dazed from the blow. Seizing the moment, Geoff Garrett executed his finishing move, The Stroke, with precision. The crowd erupted as the referee counted the pin. Geoff Garrett emerged victorious, becoming the dual champion, holding both the EBW Mars Championship and the VBW Championship. The Weekend Wrecking Crew ran up behind Tack, grabbing the Mars Championship out of his hands in the process, to hand to the rightful champ after Tack protected it for his good friend. Double G was now a three time champ, and Razorblade was seen laughing as Dan Club suffered a defeat at his hands.
Winner: Geoff Garrett via Guitar Shot x The Stroke -> Pin -> Title Defense!/NEW VBW Champion!

Larry Grim: Incredible! Razorblade got involved, and that’s certainly not Double G’s fault, but he wasn’t going to let the opportunity slip by either. The Weekend Wrecking Crew have another title belt, and Geoff Garrett is quickly becoming the King of the Mountain around Xcite! Everyone looks so happy, even Tack is in tears again over the celebration.

Apple Kid: Jammer is letting it go, as he rushes off to mix it up with Razorblade again. That’s another war waiting to happen. So much to go over, but we’re out of time! The Xcite Brand will see you at Radical Dreamers!

Degrees Office

The good doctor was bandaging up Makoto’s head, as Tack looked on patiently, never taking his eyes off Makoto. Degrees obviously noticed.

Degrees: You uh…you alright over there Tack?

Tack Angel: Huh? Yeah, I was just thinking.

Degrees: She’s going to be fine.

Makoto Kino: Yeah, he said it was just a bad cut, but it doesn’t even need stitches!

Tack Angel: No no…I was uh…thinking about the main event that happened…and uh…stuff.

Degrees: Uh-huh. Welp, I’m all done.

Tack Angel: Great! Let’s g-

Makoto Kino: We probably shouldn’t go out there together. Your uh…wife might be looking for you. If she sees us together, it could make things worse.

Tack Angel: R-right! Right! You are so right Makoto. I will go by myself, and I will see you later!

Makoto Kino: Bye Tack. Thanks for taking care of me.

Tack Angel: Happy to do it. Anytime…really. I mean that. Bye Makoto.

Degrees: …So you two…uh…really do have a thi-

Makoto Kino: Hey! *blush* No we don’t!

Degrees: You did though…before.

Makoto Kino: What?

Degrees: You’ve had the dreams right?

Makoto Kino: …..

Tack left the clinic and walked out smiling, thinking about Makoto. He quickly shook it off and walked away faster turning a corner just in time to see his wife making out with CP Munk.

Tracy Angel: OH! OH NO!

CP Munk: ….Uh…hey Tack?

Tack Angel: ….FU-

WE ARE METAL MILITIA!

Poo: And so we come to it, the day you’ve all been waiting for. You expect your favorite Renegades to put us to the test and beat us huh? NOT HAPPENING! We’re not washed up, and we’re not hasbeens. We’re the road not traveled, but luckily it’s not too late. A “friend” helped me devise a little history lesson for you all. See? Once upon a time, we were considered the best of the best. We were the heroes. Then a dude in white robes walked in like he owned the place, and to be honest, we should have put him down then and there. No, we let you fester and sully everything we wanted EBW to be. You took the belt and had the self indulgent run of runs. You couldn’t help yourself, you overplayed your hand. During the first TUE, when Ness and I were busy building a real future for wrestling, you spent your time training for MMA. You had to spend weeks off television training, and I know that had to be killing you, since you weren’t getting the attention! When you weren’t interjecting yourself into our season to hit on your future wife and future cripple, you were preparing to blur the lines of Wrestling and MMA. You couldn’t handle that it took so long in between bouts, and that you had to spend weeks away from the ring, so you tried to make Wrestling more like MMA. You’ve never really tried to stop it. It should’ve have to be this way, where the invaders come in looking to DEFEND tradition, but here we are! After tonight, you’re going to take us all a whole lot more seriously. Remember, we’re a Metal Militia, and that’s not just a tag team people. Ness is the leading the charge, but I’m running my mouth, and we’ve got two more in the pocket ready to do their thing, and who says that’s all. Remember the theme. The road not traveled! WE ARE METAL MILITIA!


"Dream Theater - Under a Glass Moon"



Tommy Dukes: Welcome to the sight of the first simulcast special event on ENN+ and ENT+!

Larry Grim: Welcome to the site of the first confrontation, and the site of the first cooperation…hopefully!

Nerma: Welcome to the Twoson Fairgrounds!

Apple Kid: And welcome to Radical Dreamers!

Makoto Kino: …I don’t…uh…I don’t have a line.

Nerma: We left out Makoto!?

Larry Grim: Oh shoot, I’m so sorry!

Tommy Dukes: I thought you guys workshopped this!

Apple Kid: I thought that was YOUR job!

Tommy Dukes: I’d remember if it were my job. Like I know it’s my job to kick off the show, and so I shall! Tommy Dukes here, the Howie Mandel of Wrestling, and not because I’m a germaphobe. That’s just a coincidence. Instead, I’m here to make a deal. How would you like to see the best of two brands all in one night?! Well you’ve got it, and all you gotta do is sit back and enjoy, as tonight we watch from top to bottom as the best of Xcite and the best of Havok show you what they’re made of! I call that a DEAL!

Nerma: Stuck the landing honey, but I’ll take it from here. We have a HUGE show for you tonight! It reminds me of the old days when we decided that fifteen matches a night was no big deal! Now we’re only doing ten, BUT, I could easily see us going to fifteen with how many awesome stars we have on the Havok Brand, and we’d rather showcase them all by having more matches than let them sit at home and have to put up with what Xcite has to offer.

Larry Grim: So much for cooperation.

Nerma: I’m trying…sort of…kind of…I’m very competitive! We have such a packed show though tonight, and maybe even some of the Xcite matches will live up!

Makoto Kino: That’s kind of a compliment I guess? The main event is a highly anticipated Xcite Brand match between EBW Champion Rama Raju and E1 Climax Winner Bashin Dan! That’s a dream match for me!

Nerma: Yeah? Well our REAL World Champion is in action tonight too, but he’s facing Metal Militia. However, our REAL Women’s World Champion Wendy Mustang will be in action against Paula. THAT is a dream match for me. A brawler and a shooter. I can’t wait!

Apple Kid: We could run up and down this card, but the fun banter is running long. Producer Steve is obviously panicking over there and telling us to wrap it up!

Larry Grim: Right, we’ve got something going on backstage with Mrs. Xtra and Blood 4 Blood! Let’s take it to the back!

Nerma: You can say THAT, but not “Let’s take it to the ring!”

Larry Grim: …I’m aware.

Blood 4 Blood Locker Room

Mrs. Xtra was standing outside of the door as the Lakitu panned to her.

Mrs. Xtra: I used to be allowed in there, but not since my hubby is on a different brand. Jeez, it’s not like I’m gonna oogle…all that much. I’m just kidding! I’m so not a peeper! Ah! Here comes Little Mac, Trevor Mach, Subculture, Picky Minch, and NEWEST Blood 4 Blood member Cade Yaggis! Cade, welcome to the world of hard knocks!

Cade Yaggis: The Trigger will hold his own just fine. We had a training session today, and I’m ready to go.

Subculture: Are you now? Cause you’re double booked for the night. They didn’t let me be double booked, but you’re double booked? What’s up with that?

Little Mac: Rite of passage Matthew. The kid wants to run with the best, he’s got to be put to the test. He made the right call, but we’re not going easy on him.

Picky Minch: It’s not about how you win tonight. I’ve been made a mockery and a punching bag on more than one occasion, but I never let it beat me. I got back up. If you get up with your head held high, then you’re going to fit right in with Blood 4 Blood. If not, you can take a hike and join the moaning of guys like Poo and Nes- well he’s not really saying anything is he? Just Poo then! I used to like those guys! You know they talk a big game, but I seem to remember them enjoying the spotlight quite a bit during that first EBW show. Ness was on top, and Poo was right there with him. I tried to keep up, but I was just a little kid. You know who had my back? Trevor Mach had my back. He liked me, and befriended me. We rode up and down the road together, with Swift and Dougie, and for a long time that was the best time of my life…until now…until Blood 4 Blood. I live for this. I’m all in. It’s because of that loyalty way back when. Even when Trevor and I spent months at each other’s throats it didn’t matter, because of that respect and that loyalty. That brotherhood was unbreakable. Tonight, we need to be unbreakable, so we can show them that we’re not trying to replace wrestling. We’re just here to be the BEST at wrestling. We’re not going to flip off things to prove that. We’re not going to dive when we don’t have to. We’re going to fight, cause that’s what we do.

Trevor Mach: I couldn’t have said it better myself. Thank you Pick-man. I’ll keep it short tonight, cause I ran my mouth enough for now. Metal Militia, it’s just like old times, and history might just repeat itself. I beat you then, and I’m better now. After it’s done, I will have two words for you. F You. That’s right I Forgive You!

Subculture: Oh…haha! THAT’S what he meant! That’s uh…fun word play…that’s gonna be fun. I’m glad you kept it short, cause I’m gonna keep it sweet. Ilya Fedorovich, you’re a punk mark for guys like myself. You’re jealous of what I’ve got. I don’t blame you. I’ve been World Champion. I cleaned up my life, learned from the best, train with the best, and I’m married to an incredible gal. That’s the Eagleland Dream. That’s what we work for all our lives. I’ve got it, and you want it. You think you can take it? Tell you what, we’re doing this under Bushido Rules tonight. That’s a Havok exclusive for ya, care of Blood 4 Blood. You want my spot? You want me to raise your hand and acknowledge you for how good you truly are? Beat me in Bushido Rules.

Little Mac: You got anything to say Cade?

Cade Yaggis: All the time, but since I’m Blood 4 Blood, I’ll do it your way, and I’ll get my point across in the ring.

Little Mac: I like that attitude but we literally just spent several minutes talking. You can trash talk all you want.

Cade Yaggis: Oh! Oh sweet! Alright then. CP Munk, you’re a bad chippy, and you’re lucky it’s me in that ring and not you know who. You stabbed the brand in the back, and you stabbed one of your best friends in the back. Your story isn’t going to finish how you expect it to. Metal Militia, one last time I appreciate what you’ve done for me. I do respect that. Going forward, I’m not pulling my punches. I’m pulling the Trigger.

Mrs. Xtra: Hey, that’s a t-shirt waiting to happen! Anyways, it’s time to go to-

Suddenly, Xcite’s Mav Valentine walked up and kissed his wife, before he stepped up to his former stablemates.

Mav Valentine: Guys? Go wreck those rejects tonight, and make me proud!

Trevor Mach: Absolutely!

Mrs. Xtra: Awww…it’s a reunion…of like a couple weeks ago or so. Whatever. Back to you up front!

-

Makoto Kino: Mav Valentine better hurry up out here, because he will be joining other Xciters and Renegades in a Battle Royale to kick off the first big event of the “Brave New World Era” in EBW!

Tommy Dukes: Look over there….you see Swift? See Darius Grouch? Neighboring VIP booths.

Nerma: Can you sense that tension?

Apple Kid: I can TASTE it!

EBW: Radical Dreamers 2023
Twoson Fairgrounds, Twoson
ENN+/ENT+

1. Havok vs. Xcite Battle Royale: Jammer vs. Magnum PT vs. Vape vs. LG Rod vs. Point Man vs. Randy no Kachi vs. Jackson Kain vs. Brunson Burner vs. Benjamin vs. Jaden Yuki vs. Dungaree Danson vs. Colby Roads vs. Rains vs. Blue Rains vs. Mav Valentine
-The opening bout for Radical Dreamers saw an Over the Top Battle Royale, featuring a diverse cast of competitors, including fan favorites, newcomers, and veterans. The ring was crowded with Xciters and Renegades, and the stakes were high as the wrestlers vied for supremacy. The bell rang, and the Battle Royal began with all participants eyeing each other cautiously. Among the competitors were established stars like Jammer, Magnum PT, Vape, LG Rod, Point Man, Randy no Kachi, and more. Additionally, there were newcomers making their in-ring debut: Brunson Burner and Dungaree Danson. The highly anticipated return of Jackson Kain added even more excitement to the mix. The chaos ensued as the wrestlers clashed in a flurry of strikes, suplexes, and high-impact moves. Brunson and Danson, the rookies, were eager to make a statement, but were quickly hoofed out of the ring. As the match progressed, alliances formed and dissolved in the blink of an eye, with competitors trying to outwit and eliminate one another. Jammer and Magnum PT displayed their charisma and in-ring skills, earning cheers from the audience. Rains, Blue Rains, and Vape, known for their unpredictable antics, added an element of chaos to the proceedings. Rains and Blue Rains even tried joining forces to eliminate Vape, but Blue Rains turned on Rains and chucked him out. Vape gave the fans the "gun show", and the rest of the talent tossed him out for his troubles. Unique styles and personalities kept the audience on their toes, never knowing what to expect next. Colby Roads, Point Man, and Randy no Kachi, with their technical prowess, engaged in thrilling exchanges, showcasing their wrestling expertise. The moment of truth arrived when Jackson Kain, the movie mega star and former World Champion, began to make his presence felt. He displayed a mix of power and agility that left the audience in awe, eliminating several competitors with impressive maneuvers and showing no sign of ring rust. In the closing moments of the match, it came down to a showdown between Mav Valentine and Jackson Kain. Mav told Kain to get back in the ring and prove himself before a one on one competition between the two, and this was a good way of saying the message was received. The crowd was divided as they witnessed the epic clash between experience and potential. In a classic twist, Jackson Kain managed to eliminate Mav Valentine with a jaw-dropping maneuver, sending him tumbling over the top rope to the arena floor after hitting a split legged punch to the pills. The bell rang, and Jackson Kain was declared the winner of the Over the Top Battle Royal, making a triumphant return.
Winner: Jackson Kain<Xcite>

Apple Kid: THE WINNER IS XCITE! TAKE THAT HAVO- I mean the winner is Jackson Kain! The megastar is back in action! I wonder if Mav Valentine is paying attention now, as Mrs. Xtra comes out with an ice pack for his golden globes. Eh? Eh?

Larry Grim: Not bad.

Makoto Kino: I’m proud of our roster on that one, though Colby Roads isn’t taking it very well that he didn’t win. He’s saying this wasn’t meant to be part of the story, and he’s threatening to bring in his black wife? What does that have to do with anything?

Tommy Dukes: Well congratulations to Xcite. I can see Swift is placing his desk BACK DOWN! He didn’t flip it! “The Rumble” meanwhile seems calm and confident. Maybe he knows things we don’t? Before we head to the next match, I’m being told that Tack Angel has entered the building.

Makoto Kino: …

Larry Grim: Sorry Makoto, but we have to check it out.

Backstage

Tack Angel stormed into the building, with Tracy Angel not too far behind him.

Tracy Angel: Tack! We need to talk about this! What are you doing?

Tack Angel: I just want to talk to him.

Tracy Angel: Why do you have a shotgun?

Tack Angel: I just want to talk to him.

Tracy Angel: Tack, this is ridiculous!

Tack Angel: I just want to talk to him. I just want to talk to him.

Tracy Angel: What are you doing with that gun?! You need to stop this now!

Tack Angel: I just want to shoot him. I just want to talk to him.

Tracy Angel: You can’t shoot him!

Tack Angel: Why not? After all, it’s CHIPMUNK SEASON!

Tracy Angel: Tack wait….that’s a cork gun! It’s not real!

Tack Angel: Of course it isn’t. I have never held a real gun, except for that time Trevor made me shoot him as a prank of some sort. That was traumatizing, but not as traumatizing as this! YOU BROKE MY HEART TRACY! ALL THESE YEARS THROWN AWAY!?

Tracy Angel: Tack, it’s not like that!

Tack Angel: You can’t explain this! You can’t talk your way out of it. You’ve been manipulative for a long time, and I allowed it, because I loved you, and even though we didn’t always share the same morals, that didn’t stop me from loving you with all my heart. I would never betray you, and yet that is exactly what you did to me. I can’t…I can’t let this one go Tracy. If you truly love me, you’ll understand that I have some thinking to do….and some work to do…as a husband and a man. Leave me alone.

Tracy Angel: …..

2. EBW World Team Championship Rings/Battle for “The Storm”: Zyro Kurogane(c)/Mike Thunder(c)/Isiah Muscle(c)/Johnny Starbound(c) vs. Tower/Turbo/Sabre/Hawk
-Up next, an 8-Man tag team match was set to take place. On one side, there was Samurai Ifrit, consisting of Zyro Kurogane, Mike Thunder, Isiah Muscle, and Johnny Starbound, who held the coveted World Team Rings. On the other side were their challengers, the formidable Eagleland Gladiators, consisting of Sabre, Tower, Turbo, and Hawk. The crowd was buzzing with anticipation as the bell rang, signifying the start of this high-stakes contest. One Havok team and one Xcite team. The Rings would control the "The Storm", so the stakes were never higher for a Team Ring battle. Samurai Ifrit, known for their nefarious moves, entered the ring with confidence and determination, while the Eagleland Gladiators exuded an aura of strength and power. The match began with Zyro Kurogane and Sabre as the legal competitors. The two locked up in the center of the ring, showcasing their technical prowess. Zyro's martial arts background and Sabre's brute strength made for an engaging opening exchange. As the match progressed, the teamwork of both teams came into play. Samurai Ifrit displayed their seamless coordination, executing quick tags and double-team maneuvers. The Eagleland Gladiators, known for their power moves, countered with their own hard-hitting offense. Mike Thunder, with his power and ego, burst across the ring, delivering breathtaking slams. On the opposing side, Tower and Turbo displayed their dominance, using their size and strength to control the pace of the match. Hawk, the mouthy and fun loving member of the Eagleland Gladiators, utilized his quick strikes and acrobatics to keep his opponents guessing. As the match neared its climax, it was Zyro Kurogane and Hawk who found themselves as the legal competitors once again. The two engaged in a fierce battle, with the World Team Rings on the line. In a pivotal moment, Viper appeared at ringside, and distracted Hawk at a critical juncture. With Hawk momentarily distracted, Zyro Kurogane capitalized on the opportunity and executed his devastating Straight Jacket Hagen Suplex. 1-2-3! Zyro Kurogane secured the victory for Samurai Ifrit, successfully retaining the World Team Rings.
Winners: Zyro Kurogane(c)[o]/Mike Thunder(c)/Isiah Muscle(c)/Johnny Starbound(c) via Straight Jacket Hagen on Hawk -> Pin -> Title Defense! -> “The Storm” goes to Havok!

Nerma: HA! YEAH! WE WIN! WE GET THE STORM! ALRIGHT!

Tommy Dukes: She’s just doing that because of the previous match.

Larry Grim: Of course.

Apple Kid: I deserve that.

Tommy Dukes: That does mean that we get the second show, which will debut this next weekend, and will be a good way to highlight the Renegades in the weeks to come.

Apple Kid: Well don’t get too comfortable with it, because we’ll line up another team and make another go at it. Maybe one that keeps in mind that the Renegades like to cheat! I mean Viper? Really? You used a Glad to beat the Glads. Grouch looks pleased about it.

Nerma: I’m not condoning Samurai Ifrit or their use of Viper, I’m just understanding that it got us what we wanted.

Larry Grim: That IS condoning.

Makoto Kino: *sigh*

Larry Grim: You alright Makoto?

Makoto Kino: It’s just…

Larry Grim: Yeah…I know.

Apple Kid: I think I get it too, but we have to move onto the next match, which will see more Eagleland Gladiator action. Let’s hope Ike Madamle’s athletes are ready for this one, as they will take on the new combination of Gianna Rambaldi and Hilda Iceheart. The EBW Women’s Tag Team Championships are going to be on the line. Want to do the line Tommy?

Tommy Dukes: I’ve been told I can’t for Xcite matches.

Apple Kid: By who?

Nerma: *cough*

Larry Grim: Let’s do it to it!

3. Xcite EBW Women’s Tag Team Championship: Ice(c)/Siren(c) vs. Gianna Rambaldi/Hilda Iceheart
-The reigning champions, Ice and Siren of the Eagleland Gladiators put their titles on the line against the challenging duo of Gianna Rambaldi and Hilda Iceheart, who had aligned themselves with the Women's Champion, Erica, and were met with a chorus of boos from the crowd. Ice and Gianna started for their respective teams, with Ice displaying her technical prowess and athleticism, and Gianna relying on her cunning and resourcefulness. Early in the match, it became evident that Gianna and Hilda were willing to resort to underhanded tactics to gain the upper hand. They targeted Ice, isolating her from Siren and subjecting her to a relentless assault. Siren, on the apron, watched with concern as her partner struggled to fend off the challengers' onslaught. Despite the odds stacked against her, Ice fought valiantly, refusing to back down. Hilda Iceheart, with her crafty and cold demeanor, took control of the match for her team. She executed powerful strikes and grappling maneuvers, wearing down Ice's resilience and showing more of her incredible progress since the brands split. Gianna Rambaldi added her own unique offense to the mix, creating a formidable duo. As the match approached its climax, Ice managed to break free from her opponents' grasp and made a desperate crawl towards her corner. The crowd rallied behind her, urging her to make the much-needed tag to Siren. However, before Ice could reach her partner, EBW Women's Champion Erica pulled her off the corner. Hilda Iceheart delivered a devastating Northern Lights Bomb, driving Ice into the canvas with incredible force. The referee made the count and Hilda Iceheart secured the victory for her team, pinning Ice and capturing the EBW Women's Tag Team Championships. The crowd was left in shock as the Eagleland Gladiators had fallen to the underhanded tactics of Gianna Rambaldi and Hilda Iceheart. The boos rained down upon the new champions, who celebrated their ill-gotten victory with the Women's Champion, Erica, at ringside.
Winners: Gianna Rambaldi/Hilda Iceheart[o] via Northern Lights Bomb on Ice -> Pin -> NEW EBW Women’s Tag Team Champions!

Makoto Kino: Oh no, would you look at what’s happening here? Erica on top again with the EBW Women’s Tag Team Champions?! She’s found her way right back where she wanted to be. She has scratched and clawed, and re-created her empire. Is this the reformation of Eisenritter? Christina Angel is watching from the stage, and she’s not thrilled about it, that’s for sure. She put everything into dismantling that group once before, but now it might be stronger than ever. Gianna and Hilda were in top form, and the Glads go 0-2 tonight.

Nerma: We move on from that, to some more inter-brand warfare! It was originally not supposed to be that way, but CP Munk is a toxic, slimy turncoat. He wanted to fight Cade after “Trigger” made it clear he wasn’t going to follow his lead on things. Munk then jumped ship, showing he has no loyalties, and will do whatever is best for himself. That brings us to this match. Cade Yaggis versus CP Munk!

4. Havok vs. Xcite Singles: Cade Yaggis vs. CP Munk
-Tensions were running high, as a brand versus brand match was set to take place between Cade Yaggis, representing the Havok brand, and CP Munk, a member of the Xcite brand. This highly anticipated showdown had captured the attention of wrestling fans worldwide. Cade Yaggis, nicknamed "Trigger," was a beloved figure among the fans, known for his explosive in-ring style and charismatic personality. His entrance was met with a thunderous ovation, as the crowd rallied behind him. On the other side of the ring, CP Munk made his entrance to a chorus of boos and jeers, even from Xcite fans. His once-sterling reputation had been tarnished by the revelation of his affair with Tack Angel's wife, Tracy, making him one of the most despised figures in the wrestling world. Cade unleashed his signature explosive offense, thrilling the crowd with high-impact moves and forgoing dazzling aerial maneuvers for ground and pound, the Blood 4 Blood style. CP Munk, fueled by the negative emotions from the crowd's animosity, fought back with ruthless determination shouting that he would FINISH THE STORY, with Colby Roads, LG Rod, and Randy on Kachi in his corner. The match was fiercely contested, with both competitors refusing to back down. CP Munk, driven by his newfound villainous persona, resorted to underhanded tactics to gain the upper hand, further infuriating the audience. In a pivotal moment of the match, as CP Munk had Cade in a vulnerable position, the arena erupted as Tack Angel stormed down the aisle. His anger and frustration at CP Munk's actions had reached a boiling point. Tack Angel slid into the ring and, without hesitation, delivered a devastating kick to CP Munk's head. The impact was thunderous, and CP Munk collapsed to the mat, dazed and unconscious. The referee had no choice but to call for the disqualification, and the bell rang to signal the end of the match. CP Munk was declared the winner by disqualification, but there was no celebration to be had as the crowd cheered for Tack's intervention. Tack Angel had exacted a measure of revenge on CP Munk for his betrayal, and the crowd roared their approval. Cade shrugged off the loss and questioned what took so long, as he basically expected the run in to happen.
Winner: CP Munk via DQ

Makoto Kino: Tack!

Tommy Dukes: Cade seems fine with the loss, as he’s got bigger action later in the night, but wow, Tack showing some fire there. The Weekend Wrecking Crew are out to try and console him.

Larry Grim: He looks so mad, and even more furious now that his good friends are out there, but it might be because he’s replaying things in his head, and not because the Crew is out there to help him calm down.

Apple Kid: I was hoping he’d bring the toy gun…so I could turn it into a real one. I make things into other things…it’s my hobby.

Nerma: Well get ready folks, cause it’s Havok’s time to shine! Subculture and Ilya Fedorovich are going to mix it up in a Bushido Rules bout. You can only get those from Havok!

Apple Kid: …and joint shows like this.

Nerma: Shut up! Tommy, do the thing!

Tommy Dukes: LET’S TAKE IT TO THE RING!

5. Havok Bushido Rules Singles: Subculture vs. Ilya Fedorovich
-Up next, a special match was set to take place under Bushido Rules, pitting Subculture, the gritty fan favorite known as the Green Bomber, against the menacing Ilya Fedorovich, a foreign menace from Euroland who had recently returned to challenge him. The atmosphere was charged as the bell rang, signaling the start of this unique bout. Bushido Rules meant no rope breaks and no leaving the ring. The competitors had to fight to the finish within the confines of the squared circle. Subculture, a striker with a gritty street-fighting style, wasted no time in unleashing a barrage of punches and kicks on Ilya Fedorovich. The fans were firmly behind the Green Bomber, their cheers and chants urging him on. Ilya Fedorovich, known for his ruthless and unorthodox approach, fought back with a mix of strikes and grappling maneuvers. The crowd watched in awe as the two competitors engaged in a fierce battle, with neither willing to give an inch. As the match wore on, Subculture's striking prowess began to take its toll on Ilya Fedorovich. Blow after blow landed on the foreign menace, overwhelming him with Subculture's relentless offense. In a last-ditch effort to avoid defeat, Ilya Fedorovich resorted to a desperate tactic. He rolled out of the ring, effectively breaking the Bushido Rules. The referee had no choice but to count him out, declaring Subculture the winner. The crowd erupted in celebration as Subculture's hand was raised in victory. However, the joyous moment was short-lived as Ilya Fedorovich, consumed by rage, attacked Subculture from behind after the match. Little Mac ran out to stop him, as Ilya turned and took a swing at Little Mac as well, knocking him to the mat. Renegade Security had to get involved as that set Subculture off all over again.
Winner: Subculture via Ring Out!

Tommy Dukes: Subculture with the win, but Little Mac isn’t looking so good now. Ilya left the ring of his own volition, but he took it all out on Little Mac. Subbie is helping him to the back, and let’s hope he’s alright, because he’s supposed to compete tonight against Metal Militia!

Nerma: We have more Havok action up next, as Dem Girlz go head to head with the Gamer Girls.

Apple Kid: It’s Girlz on Girls action huh? Hehe. Sorry.

Nerma: Will this be the match to light a fire under the gamers? Hope has beaten them both, and is now going to be watching her good friends take on the team of terminally online shut ins. I mean, it could be a lot worse. I THINK Chains is less likely to do that drug trip of a show she used to do. She’s not talking to “kids” anymore. Maybe it’s worse now…who really knows with her?

6. Havok Women’s World Tag Team Championships: Jenny James(c)/Jessy James(c) vs. Alison Chains/Christy Angel
-Next up, the Women’s World Tag Team Championships were on the line. The reigning champions, Jenny and Jessy James, known collectively as Dem Girlz, were a rough and down-and-dirty tag team that the fans adored. They were set to defend their titles against the unpredictable duo of Alison Chains and Christy Angel, known as the Gamer Girls. As the match began, Jenny James and Alison Chains started for their respective teams. The two fierce competitors locked up in the center of the ring, engaging in a physical battle that showcased their determination to win. Dem Girlz wasted no time in displaying their tag team chemistry, using quick tags and double-team maneuvers to control the pace of the match. Alison Chains, however, proved to be a formidable adversary, unleashing her violent side with a flurry of strikes and high-impact moves. Christy Angel, on the apron, showed glimpses of her potential but often tried to take shortcuts, much to the chagrin of the audience. Her young and aloof demeanor sometimes got the best of her, while Chains would oftentimes forget where she was, or take a "gamer fuel" break. As the match progressed, Alison Chains climbed to the top rope, looking to deliver a devastating move to Jenny James. She attempted a falling top rope headbutt, aiming to crush her opponent. Not a diving headbutt, but a falling one, as she just sort of blacked out and fell. The high-risk maneuver backfired as Alison Chains missed her target, hitting the mat with a painful impact. She lay motionless in the ring, as Jessy pinned her for the win and the title defense.
Winners: Jenny James/Jessy James[o] via Roll Up on Alison Chains -> Pin -> Title Defense!

Nerma: She…fell?! She fell? She just sort of fell. Huh.

Tommy Dukes: Chains dropped the fall, and Dem Girlz continue to hold the top prize for the Lady Renegade teams of Havok! Congratulations to them, as Hope Mach comes out, disappointed at Alison and Christy yet again. It was a competitive match, but still not enough.

Makoto Kino: Time to shift back to Xcit-

Nerma: Actually, no it’s not. We have word from the back, that something is going on. Let’s check it out!

Backstage

Blood 4 Blood were seen arguing with Degrees, as Little Mac iced his bleeding head.

Degrees: I’m sorry guys, I can’t clear him tonight. Ilya’s hit cut him too deeply. I have to get those stitches done immediately or we get a nasty scar.

Little Mac: I don’t care. That’s just another one on the long list of scars.

Degrees: I can’t clear you sir, I’m sorry.

Cade Yaggis: We’ll do it on our own sir. Don’t worry about it. Just means more time to rough up the Militia for the Triggerman.

Little Mac: I appreciate the effort kid, but we need to go full force tonight.

Subculture: Then I’m tagging in! I don’t care about rites of passage BS. I never should have let you take my place Mac. I didn’t donate organs to you so you could go and get obliterated in that ring tonight. I’m fine, and I’m hungry for another fight! I’m in!

Little Mac: …Fine. Whatever. Don’t let me stop you. You want me to be proud or something?! Well…it’s working dang it!

7. Xcite EBW Tag Team Championships: Tack Angel(c)/Geoff Garrett(c) vs. Troy/Razorblade
-The reigning champions, Tack Angel and Geoff Garrett, collectively known as the "Weekend Wrecking Crew," were prepared to defend their titles against the formidable team of Razorblade and Troy, collectively known as "The Rizz," and managed by the devious Preacher Ra. Tack Angel and Geoff Garrett, fan favorites with a reputation for their charisma and in-ring prowess, entered the ring to a chorus of cheers from the audience. Everyone loved them, although Tack seemed to be miserable in the moment as Double G slapped him on the back, probably from everything happening with Munk and Tracy, cause no way was he miserable teaming with THE UNDISPUTED EBW Mars Champion. Their opponents, The Rizz, had a reputation for their ruthless and rule-breaking tactics, making them a formidable challenge for the champions. With Preacher Ra in their corner, they were ready to do whatever it took to capture the coveted tag team titles. The match began with Tack Angel and Razorblade as the legal competitors, engaging in a back-and-forth battle of strikes and technical wrestling. Geoff Garrett and Troy eagerly awaited their opportunity on the apron, ready to make their presence felt. As the contest continued, the action spilled to the outside of the ring. It was during this chaos that CP Munk made his presence known. He appeared at ringside, engaging in a heated argument with Tack. As the two competitors exchanged words, Tracy, Tack Angel's wife, unexpectedly rushed to the scene to intervene. She tried to talk Tack down, but in a shocking twist, she kicked Tack between the legs, catching him off guard and leaving him incapacitated. Simultaneously, CP Munk seized the moment and broke Geoff Garrett's guitar over his head, leaving him dazed and confused. The crowd was in disbelief at the sudden turn of events. As Tack Angel writhed in pain outside the ring and Geoff Garrett struggled to regain his composure, the referee's count continued. The Weekend Wrecking Crew failed to make it back into the ring before the count of ten, resulting in a count-out victory for The Rizz. While The Rizz may have won the match, the EBW Tag Team Championships could not change hands via count-out. The champions, Tack Angel and Geoff Garrett, retained their titles despite the chaos that had unfolded. Both Christina and Christy ran out, reunited for the first time since the split to get between their mother and Tack. Makoto Kino stood up at the announce table, but tried to compose herself and sat back down, though she was obviously crying.
Winners: Troy[o]/Razorblade via Count Out!

Makoto Kino: TACK NO!

Larry Grim: The Rizz win their match, but they don’t take home the gold. They still seem pleased with the results, which they didn’t even have to do anything about. Preacher Ra is grabbing the belts like he owns them though! Give those back!

Apple Kid: Makoto…you want to-

Makoto Kino: Yes!

Apple Kid: There she goes to help that poor team…but mostly Tack. Let’s just be real about it.

Larry Grim: Tracy somehow found a way to stab Tack in the back again.

Apple Kid: It was a kick to the pills Larry.

Larry Grim: Metaphor Apple…it was a metaphor.

8. Havok 8-Man Tag: Trevor Mach/Subculture/Picky Minch/Cade Yaggis vs. Ness/Poo/?/?
-Next up, an explosive 8-man tag team match was set to take place, pitting two formidable factions against each other. On one side stood Blood 4 Blood, a team known for their technical prowess and shooters' mentality, while on the other side was the enigmatic Metal Militia, composed of the EBW originals with years of experience. Representing Blood 4 Blood were the reigning World Champion, Trevor Mach, Subculture, Picky Minch, and Cade Yaggis. The shooters had a reputation for their precision and grappling expertise. They entered the ring with determination, fully aware of the challenge that awaited them. Their opponents, the mysterious Metal Militia, consisted of Ness, Poo, and two masked men dressed in all black and silver. Metal Militia's members were versatile and unpredictable, making them a unique and dangerous force in the world of Renegades. The match began with a clash of styles, as the technical prowess of Blood 4 Blood clashed with the all-around abilities of Metal Militia. Subculture and one of the masked men kicked things off, exchanging a flurry of holds and counters, showcasing their wrestling acumen. As the bout progressed, Picky Minch and Poo entered the fray, displaying their resilience and grappling abilities. The action spilled to the outside of the ring, with both teams unleashing their hard-hitting offense. Trevor Mach, the World Champion, stepped into the ring and locked up with one of the masked men. Mach's technical skills were on full display as he expertly executed submission holds and ground-and-pound tactics. The tension in the arena reached its peak when Trevor Mach managed to unmask one of the mystery men, revealing him to be none other than Crono, a shock that sent nuclear heat through the entire building. Crono took advantage, with a lightning-fast spinning elbow to the back of the champion's head, leaving him stunned. With precision and finesse, Crono executed a Double Arm DDT, driving Trevor Mach into the canvas. The referee counted the three. In a shocking turn of events, Trevor Mach, the reigning World Champion, had been pinned by Crono. The crowd was left in awe of the Metal Militia's cunning strategy and execution.

Tommy Dukes, Nerma, Apple Kid, and Larry Grim: CRONO?!

Tommy Dukes: The ACE of CTW has returned…AS A MEMBER OF METAL MILITIA?!

Nerma: I did NOT see that coming, and neither did Trevor, as our World Champion was just pinned by Crono! The past is coming back to haunt the present. The road not taken indeed. Wow! I am in shock.

Tommy Dukes: We have to focus. We have to take a deep brea- CRONO!? SERIOUSLY CRONO IS BACK!? A HUUUUUGE NAME HAS JUST RETURNED! HOW ARE WE SUPPOSED TO CALM DOWN?!

Nerma: You’re right though! We have to try, becau-CRONO!? CTW’S CRONO IS BACK! HOLY CRAP!

Larry Grim: Should I try and handle thi-

Nerma: NO! I got it! *deep breath* Coming up next, more Havok action, and it’s another big one, as Wendy Mustang puts her World Championship on the line against Paula.

Tommy Dukes: Let’s take it to the-CRONOOOOO?!

9. Havok Women’s World Championship: Wendy Mustang(c) vs. Paula
-Up next on Havok's side of things, the Women's World Championship was on the line, and the stage was set for an intense battle between the reigning champion, Wendy Mustang, and the seasoned EBW legend, Paula. The contrast in their wrestling styles promised a thrilling contest that had the fans on the edge of their seats. Wendy Mustang, a southern cowgirl with a brash attitude and a hard-hitting style, made her entrance with confidence, flaunting her championship belt for all to see. She was known for her powerful slams and devastating lariats, earning her a reputation as a dominant force in the women's division. Paula, on the other hand, was a technical wrestling wizard, considered the very best technician on the entire roster. Her experience and mat wrestling skills had made her an EBW legend, and the crowd showed their respect as she made her way to the ring. The match began with Wendy and Paula locking up in the center of the ring. Wendy showcased her brute strength early, using her power to control the opening exchanges. She delivered thunderous slams and bone-crushing lariats that had Paula reeling. However, Paula, known for her ring awareness and technical expertise, began to target Wendy's limbs. She methodically worked on weakening her opponent's legs, setting the stage for her devastating Sharpshooter submission hold. Wendy Mustang fought back with her trademark resilience, absorbing the pain and continuing to deliver punishing blows. But Paula's technical prowess could not be denied, as she expertly executed submission holds and painful joint locks. Wendy went for the Flipping Lariat, but stumbled from the pain to her legs. Paula managed to lock in her signature Sharpshooter submission, wrenching back on Wendy's legs with all her might. The pain was excruciating, and Wendy struggled to reach the ropes for a break. Just as Wendy's fingers grazed the bottom rope, signaling a potential rope break, Darkness Aoi ran out. She took Wendy's hand off the ropes, as Paula dragged her in the center of the ring. Wendy tried to fight it, but passed out from the pain. The ref, who did not see Aoi had no choice but to stop the match and award the match and the title to Paula, who had her back to Aoi the entire time, not seeing what had just happened.
Winner: Paula via Sharpshooter -> Referee Stoppage -> NEW Women’s World  Champion!  

Tommy Dukes: Nerma passed out. The shock is just too much for her I think. I can understand that, as we just saw what we just saw. We have a new Women’s World Champion, thanks to Darkness Aoi, who helped Paula, even though she didn’t see it. Wendy Mustang’s title reign comes to an end because of one of her long standing rivals. It’s just not right. What a chaotic night for the Renegades. So many ups and downs.

Larry Grim: We’re going to end Xcite’s night with a high no matter what, as it’s time for the main event. Rama Raju, the barnburner Ace, has been unstoppable, only seeing one controversial finish since coming to EBW at Rumble City. He’ll be taking on THE Dangerous Player! The E1 Climax Winner! The ACE that runs the place! Dan the Man! Bashin Dan! That match is for the EBW Championship, and that DREAM match….IS NOW!

10. Xcite EBW Championship: Rama Raju(c) vs. Bashin Dan
-Main event time, as a championship match for the prestigious EBW Championship was set to unfold. Rama Raju, the reigning EBW Champion, stood in one corner, ready to defend his title against the challenger, Bashin Dan, who had earned his opportunity by winning the grueling E1 Climax Tournament. The crowd was electric with anticipation as the two competitors locked eyes, fully aware of the magnitude of the championship bout ahead. The bell rang, and the match began with both wrestlers circling each other, searching for an opening. Rama Raju and Bashin Dan engaged in a technical wrestling clinic, each showcasing their mat wrestling prowess. They exchanged holds, reversals, and counters, leaving the audience in awe of their skill. As the match progressed, the pace quickened, and the two athletes began to incorporate high-impact moves into their arsenal. Raju executed a picture-perfect dropkick, followed by Dan responding with a lightning-fast snap suplex. The nearfalls started to stack up as both competitors pushed each other to the limit. Raju narrowly escaped a close pinfall after a devastating Brainbuster by Dan, while Dan himself avoided defeat with a last-second kickout following a Raju Moonsault. The crowd was on the edge of their seats as the back-and-forth action continued. Raju attempted his signature Burning Arrow, but Dan countered into a DDT, nearly securing the championship. The fans roared in appreciation of the incredible contest unfolding before them. Rama Raju, driven by the desire to retain his championship, summoned his inner strength. He endured a relentless assault from Dan, who relentlessly targeted his opponent's limbs. With a burst of energy, Raju fought back, delivering a series of powerful strikes and suplexes. The match reached its crescendo when Bashin Dan hoisted Rama Raju high in the air, attempting the Brave Clash, his devastating finisher. The crowd held its collective breath, but in a shocking twist, Raju somehow kicked out just before the three-count, displaying his unyielding determination. With the championship on the line, Rama Raju rallied, catching Bashin Dan off guard with a sudden Burning Arrow. 1-2-KICKOUT! Dan and Raju were back to their feet, as Rama held his smoldering gaze at Dan, who was grinning ear to ear from the challenge. They collided once again, but as they did the bell rang. It was then that it became apparent just how much time had passed. A Time Limit Draw ended the bout!
Winner: Time Limit Draw!

Larry Grim: Amazing! They went the whole time! Where did that time go?! I was so entranced I didn’t even notice! What a match!

Apple Kid: As Raju extends his hand to Dan, the two are sharing in a job well done, but you know they and the fans all want more time!

Makoto Kino: Unfortunately, we’re out of time, but that one is going to be remembered as an all time classic I’m sure! Two top tier athletes standing atop Xcite!

Tommy Dukes: Yeah…that was really really go- not bad. It was not bad.

Nerma: Right…it was OK.

Larry Grim: We don’t like to end a night on a draw, but we love great action and tremendous athletes showing their all, and we got that tonight. From top to bottom this was a sensational super card, and I can not WAIT for what comes next! Folks, from all of us here we say-

Tommy Dukes: OH! IT WAS CALLED RADICAL DREAMERS CAUSE OF CRONO! I GOT IT! FORESHADOWING!

Larry Grim: …Goodnight everybody.

Street outside Meridian Cube Garden

Makoto Kino: Makoto Kino here, and yes I do have a big match tonight, but I couldn’t resist the chance to interview the Pushpin Seraphim, and one half of the EBW Tag Team Champions Tack Angel.

Tack Angel: Uh…he-he-hey Makoto.

Makoto Kino: *blush* Hi Tack, I wanted to say that I’m so sorry about everything that has been happening in your personal life, it being all over EBW programming. That can’t make it easier.

Tack Angel: For some reason…I feel a sense of relief. I feel like a weight was on my heart and shoulders I didn’t realize until it was lifted. I’m strangely fine…heh…is that weird?

Makoto Kino: I like it even if it’s weird. I like seeing you happy.

Tack Angel: I am officially divorced from Tracy. It was quick…too quick honestly. She didn’t even try to fight for custody of Christy. I-

Christina Angel: Dad.

Tack Angel: Christina?

Christina Angel: Are you doing alright?

Tack Angel: I was just telling Makoto here that I’m strangely fine. I’ve been thinking a lot, and I’m just happy that you and Christy are doing well. That is enough to make me happy. I feel like this needed to happen I suppose. I’m not going to let it weigh me down. She betrayed us, but now we can move forward.

Christina Angel: That’s all well and good Dad, but what is this I hear about you chartering a bus? Something about revenge?

At that moment, a bus pulled up behind Tack, with the words “Angel Express” written on the side.

Tack Angel: Oh, I still need to teach CP Munk a lesson! Tracy betrayed me, and even though I wanted to reconcile she told me how she really felt. She let it all out in the open. I can live with that. I ugly cry into a pillow at night BUT I CAN LIVE WITH IT! HOWEVER….CP Munk has been my close friend for years. He stabbed me in the back, and in wrestling there IS something I can do about that. I’m going to go on a CALL TO TACKTION TOUR in the Angel Express until I get a match against CP MUNK!

Makoto Kino: OH WOW!

Christina Angel: Call to Tacktion Dad?

Tack Angel: …YEAH! That’s r-right.

Christina Angel: …Please call me or come over if you need to talk alright?

Tack Angel: …I can’t…Subculture lives there.

Christina Angel: …

Tack Angel: You’re taking this really well.

Christina Angel: To be honest, we’ve never really connected me and her. It never felt like she was my Mom. It’s weird…it’s like an imposter took her place, and I can’t make sense of it. I’m not too worried about that right now though. Erica is back to her old tricks, and THAT is top priority right now. Seriously though, talk to me when you have time…grief is not good.

Tack Angel: I still have grief that you married Subcul-

Christina Angel: DAD!

Tack Angel: Sorry! Sorry. I’m sorry. I’m fine…really. I got this bus see?

Makoto Kino: CAN I COME WITH YOU!?

Tack Angel: Wha-what?!

Makoto Kino: I uh…I mean ALL the Sailor Sensations! Can we go on the road trip with you? I think that would be a LOT of fun!

Tack Angel: Uh…sure! The more the merrier!

Makoto Kino: You, me, the other girls, and the Weekend Wrecking Cr-

Tack Angel: LET’S NOT GO OVERBOARD! Anyways, I think it’s time I met the driver. He was recommended to me by Trevor, so he’s probably-

Rick Shaw: Yo! The name’s Rick Shaw kid! Put er there!

Tack Angel: Eh?

Rick Shaw: Did Trev tell ya I fought in the war with your Dad?

Tack Angel: Y-you did?

Rick Shaw: How is that salty wall dog these days eh? I could talk for hours about the trouble we got into over there!

Tack Angel: I’d rather you didn-

Geoff Garrett: Hey Slap Angel, is that the bus I’ve heard so much about!?

Tack Angel: Ihatethatnamegivememybelt.

Geoff Garrett: Huh? Didn’t hear ya pal. I did hear that you’re single and ready to mingle though! We’re all sorry about what happened, but your best pals are here for ya, and we’re going to be with you EVERY STEP OF THE WAY! Ol’ Double G will see to that! *Jackie Fargo struts into the bus*

Tack Angel: …give me back my belt Geoff.


"Yngwie Malmsteen - My Resurrection"



Larry Grim: Welcome to North Point! A capacity crowd is here in Meridian Cube Garden, to see Xcite for the FIRST TIME! We welcome you to a momentous occasion for EBW, and it’s all thanks to the Xcite Brand, and Swift playing some hard ball.

Apple Kid: That’s right! Swift talked to the new owners of Sports Entertainment World, and they don’t hold the same grudges that Vance McMan did about competition. A few flipped tables might have assured that North Point will be Xcite exclusive though. We’re happy to be here!

Larry Grim: We have such a big show for you tonight to celebrate our debut. It was an incredible Radical Dreamers event we just had, and the main event saw Bashin Dan take the EBW Champion Rama Raju to a time limit draw! We’re told he’s got some things to say and-




Larry Grim: Well here he comes!

Apple Kid: He’s all smiles! That’s odd for someone who didn’t walk out of the Twoson Fairgrounds with the EBW Championship!

Larry Grim: He had the battle of a lifetime with a worthy rival. For a guy like Bashin Dan, that’s just as good. He took the champ to the limit, and he didn’t back down. That proves Dan’s worth to himself.

Apple Kid: Great…a shiny belt would still be nice though.

Bashin Dan: Wow! It’s great to be here! Thanks for the warm reception! I thank you all so much! The Dangerous Player is here! I stand before you feeling very beaten and bruised, but still so pumped up and energized! That match with Rama Raju was one of the best I’ve ever had! It was everything I was hoping it would be and more. All I can say is that I’m sorry we didn’t have a decisive outcome! I wanted to give you all the best match possible though, and I wanted to show that the Xcite Brand is where you’ll find the best fights. Oh yes, I’m actively competing in that department. I strive to be the best at everything I’m a part of. We tore the roof off the place in my opinion, and for that I am satisfied with the result. I don’t want to leave it at that though. It can’t end like this. I have to get another shot at that title! Rama Raju is my tag team partner tonight, and he’s a new friend. I have nothing but respect for him, but as he is my rival I HAVE TO HAVE ANOTHER SHOT! Rama, please come out here my friend.

Rama Raju wasted no time, walking out to the ring with title belt in hand, as the crowd chanted for the Mega Power Star from Dalaam. He entered the ring, and shook the hand of Bashin Dan.

Rama Raju: Dan…I would have been disappointed if you hadn’t come out here to challenge me again. I originally joined EBW at the behest of my country and my tribe, as a way to track down those who tried to tear us apart. I left Harley Rexx with a reminder for all times of what happens when you try to break down my people. I had the match of a lifetime with Trevor Mach, the result was so powerful that it split EBW in two. How many people can make that claim? Only he and I. Then, I met you, and you have given me a new fire for wrestling, and a new rival and friend that I can respect. I know in this sport, the people spend more time demanding blood from heated enemies, but I look forward to the best competition from a dear friend. I’d be more than happy to-

Colby Roads: Hold it! Hold it right there! Both of you stop talking, cause The Eagleland Cheese is here! What do you guys want to talk about? I know what I want to talk about. How about MY story? Huh? Wrestling revolves around the protagonists, and no one is a bigger protagonist than the Eagleland Cheese. I’ve had to watch as shot after shot passes me by! Bashin Dan, you’re a flash in the pan. You’ve been around a while now. You’re not a snot nosed little punk anymore. You’ve had time to prove yourself, and have you? Do you have the title? Did you win? When you win, how long do you keep it? How many times have you let the torch get ripped out of your hands? People say that Raju is the champ, but you’re the ACE! I don’t see it. I’m not impressed! Rama Raju, that’s two titles matches in a row where you couldn’t quite get the job done. You’re developing into a choke artist as far as I’m concerned. You’re actually proud of that match with Mach? Because of that match only one brand gets to see The Eagleland Cheese, and you know where my loyalty lies….to any brand that will give me money, a title shot, and a spot for the black wife that helped me end racism! If anyone should get the next shot, then it’s me, but don’t worry, I’ll play the system, and do it the “right way” by taking you down a peg or two Bashin Dan. Before you even THINK of picking a fight with him….you go through me.

Bashin Dan: …I never back down from a challenge Cheese guy. Not even from someone with a horrible sense of where to put a tattoo. If you want a match then you’ve got it, but it can’t be tonight, because tonight Rama Raju and I have the main event once again! We’re going to grab those EBW Tag Team Championships!

Larry Grim: Wow, a full plate for Dan, as he wants the rematch, he wants the tag belts, and now he’s got a match coming with Colby Roads?! No days off for the Dangerous Player.

Apple Kid: No days off either for our EBW, OR our broadcast partner for that matter. Makoto Kino, the best friend of my girlfriend! Did you know I have a girlfriend, cause I totally do! She digs the stem hair! She did an interview, she does broadcasting with us, and tonight she’s in action. Her and Usagi Tsukino, the one she treats like a Princess for some reason, will take on the former EBW Women’s Tag Team Champions. It’s informal, but I’m willing to be the winners get the first shot at the new champs Hilda Iceheart and Gianna Rambaldi.

Larry Grim: The Ice Princess and the Euroland Princess will be in action tonight too, as they team with EBW Women’s Champion Erica to take on Christina Angel, Rei Hino, and Ami Mizuno. The only Sailor Sensation not booked tonight seems to BE your girlfriend Apple.

Apple Kid: She’s busy filming seasons 18-23 of Minako in Euroland for FlixNet. Surprisingly, I’m surprised she’s still on the show considering how many times they’ve thought about replacing her with a gay amputee of color, but the fans know what they like!

Larry Grim: We have so many matches on this supersized show, but we didn’t get the extra time to go along with it, so let’s move right along to our first match. It’s going to see Dungaree Danson and Brunson Burner in action for the first time in EBW! The Mid-South boys are going up against Tower and Turbo of the Eagleland Gladiators, and I have a feeling the Weekend Wrecking Crew are going to be invested in this one. Tack was seen laughing earlier, saying that he couldn’t wait to see them get creamed and sent packing. Obviously he meant the Gladiators, whom he will soon be facing in an upcoming episode of Eagleland Gladiators.

Apple Kid: Yeah, no way he meant his two new good friends, who help him support the Undisputed Mars Champion!


EBW: Xcite
Meridian Cube Garden, North Point
ENN

1. Tag: Dungaree Danson/Brunson Burner vs. Tower/Tubro
-The opening bout for this huge Xcite was a tag team match between the Weekend Wrecking Crew and the Eagleland Gladiators. On one side of the ring stood Brunson Burner, a rotund southerner known for using his considerable weight to crush opponents, and his flamboyant partner, Dungaree Danson, who oozed confidence and charm. Across the ring were their formidable opponents, Tower and Turbo of the Eagleland Gladiators, known for their incredible strength and teamwork. The bell rang, and the match was underway. Tower and Brunson Burner stepped into the ring, creating a stark visual contrast. Tower, a mountain of muscle, looked down at Brunson with a smirk, underestimating the larger-than-life southerner. Brunson, true to his reputation, wasted no time. He charged at Tower, using his massive frame like a battering ram, crashing into Tower and forcing him into the corner. Brunson unleashed a barrage of body shots, each thud echoing through the arena, much to the delight of the crowd. But Tower, with his immense strength, managed to reverse the situation. He hoisted Brunson onto his shoulders with ease, looking to execute a devastating powerbomb. Just when it seemed like Brunson was in dire straits, Dungaree Danson sprang into action. Dungaree leaped onto the ropes and performed a stunning missile dropkick, connecting squarely with Tower's back. Tower stumbled forward, dropping Brunson in the process. The crowd roared their approval as Dungaree posed theatrically. With Tower reeling, Dungaree tagged in Brunson. Seizing the opportunity, Brunson wobbled to the ropes and executed a cannonball senton, crushing Tower beneath his massive girth. The impact shook the ring, and the referee counted the pin. A HUGE upset, and a shocking performance from the Weekend Wrecking Crew's newest members!
Winners: Dungaree Danson/Brunson Burner[o] via Top Rope Splash on Turbo -> Pin

Larry Grim: Wow! That’s awesome! Good for the Crew! Our new Mid-South boys just won a huge upset over the Glads! That’s incredible!

Apple Kid: You KNOW that EBW Tag Team Champions Geoff Garrett and Tack Angel have to be thrilled about that!

Locker Room

Tack Angel was watching on the monitor and took a sip of an Arnie Palmie just so he could spit it out again.

Tack Angel: Whoa! What?! Huh?! How?! Who?! Incredible….absolutely-

Geoff Garrett: Wow! Can you believe that Pushpin Slapaphim!?

Tack Angel: Getoutofmylockerroom.

Geoff Garrett: Our boys done us proud tonight, but we’re just getting started. I say the Crew has got some more rockin’ and rollin’, struttin’ and strollin’ to do tonight am I right?!

Tack Angel: Givemebackmytitle.

Geoff Garrett: The unstoppable team has the ultimate challenge, and we’re gonna show dem boys, what we’re truly made of! Yeah-ha-ha! *Jackie Fargo struts back out of the locker room*

Tack Angel: …..Givemebackmytitle.
 
2. Women’s Tag: Ice/Siren vs. Usagi Tsukino/Makoto Kino
-Next up, was a Women's Tag Team match featuring the Sailor Sensations and the formidable Eagleland Gladiators. The Sailor Sensations, comprised of the graceful Usagi Tsukino and the powerhouse Makoto Kino, faced off against the icy duo of Ice and the mesmerizing Siren from the Eagleland Gladiators. The bell rang, and the match was underway. Usagi and Siren began the bout, with Siren attempting to use her impressive guns to gain an early advantage. However, Usagi's agility proved to be her foil, as she worked around the slow, yet powerful deaf warrior. With a series of lightning-fast maneuvers, Usagi managed to tag in her partner, Makoto Kino, known for her incredible strength and reach. Makoto stormed into the ring like a tempest, and Siren realized she was in trouble. She attempted to retreat to her corner but was cut off by Makoto's relentless offense. Makoto delivered a powerful suplex, leaving Siren writhing in pain. She then taunted Siren, daring her to tag in her partner, Ice. Siren, struggling to her feet, finally made the tag, and in stepped the imposing Ice. Makoto and Ice circled each other, both demonstrating incredible power. The two locked up in a test of strength, neither giving an inch. The arena reverberated with the tension between the two powerhouses. Usagi, on the apron, watched her partner with admiration and waited for her moment to strike. That moment came when Makoto managed to deliver a thunderous big boot to Ice, staggering the Gladiators' enforcer. With precision timing, Usagi tagged herself back in. Usagi climbed the turnbuckle, her heart filled with the power of the moon. She leaped high into the air, performing a graceful Lunar Splash. The crowd erupted as Usagi's body arced through the sky, and she landed with pinpoint accuracy on Ice, her opponent. 1-2-3! A HUGE win for the Sailor Sensations!
Winners: Usagi Tsukino[o]/Makoto Kino via Lunar Splash on Ice -> Pin

After the match, Makoto and Usagi celebrated, after shaking hands with the Glads. They were soon attacked by Tracy, who tossed Usagi off the ramp to focus on Makoto. The Red Shirts and the Gladiators ran to the ramp to break up the fight. Makoto was fired up now and grabbed a microphone.

Makoto Kino: HEY! I DON’T UNDERSTAND YOU! I DON’T UNDERSTAND YOUR ISSUES WITH ME! Listen, do I care about Tack Angel? *blush* That’s the question everyone has been asking me. I don’t like to talk about my private life like that! All I’m going to say is that you had a man who loved you and was committed to you. He’s been a long standing hero and role model, and it could not have been easy to resist temptation after temptation to be loyal to you. You took all of that and threw it away! That is YOUR FAULT! If you want to settle this, I will be waiting for a rematch, but I’m not doing THIS! I’m not dealing with your insecurities and your failings! Stay away from me, unless it’s a match you want!

Larry Grim: YEAH! You tell her Makoto!

Apple Kid: WE ARE 100% BIASED ON THIS FACT AND WILL CHEER FOR OUR GOOD FRIEND! YEAH!

Good News Gary: Good News Everyone! Tonight, we’re going to see Rains finally defeat that pesky Blue Rains, and Bad News Barry can take a hike! That being said, I’m not here with Rains OR Blue Rains right now. I’m here with the Eagleland Cheese Colby Roads. Colby, everyone was surprised to see you call out Bashin Dan like that, seemingly out of nowhere. It seems you have some animosity with him. Want to talk about it?

Colby Roads: Anything to be on camera, and to make sure this show and this story, is focused on the protagonist of Professional Wrestling. You see me in this nice suit?

Good News Gary: I see a weird neck tatto-

Colby Roads: Ignore that. See the suit? It’s custom made. See the shoes? Custom made. I’m a custom made from head to toe, because I was customly made and designed and test marketed for greatness! Bashin Dan is just a punk kid who got lucky!

Good News Gary: In wrestling? Cause he’s very very go-

Colby Roads: No! In…in…in an e-fed we’re both in. He got lucky and beat me! I don’t lose at ANYTHING! When I do, what do you think I do? Do you think I take my ball and jump to the other company? EXACTLY! Because I’m not supposed to lose! So I quit that e-fed, and it’s all his fault, and I’m going to make him pay for it I! R! L! Not only that though, but when I’m done with him, I’m going to run through Rama Raju and finally FINISH! THE! STORY!

Good News Gary: …An e-fed? They still do those?

3. Singles: Jackson Kain vs. Jaden Yuki
-The third match of the night saw Jackson Kain, the beloved action movie star making his long-awaited comeback, and Jaden Yuki, the cocky yet endearing young talent who strutted to the ring, microphone in hand, rapping his way to the squared circle, proudly declaring himself "Absolutely Flawless." The fans were divided between the seasoned star and the up-and-coming sensation as they squared off in the center of the ring. Jackson Kain, with his rock star demeanor, faced off against Jaden Yuki, who couldn't resist flaunting his charisma either. The bell rang, and the match was underway. Jackson Kain, displaying his years of experience, took control early on with powerful holds and technical prowess. Jaden, ever the showman, played to the crowd, milking their cheers and jeers. However, Jaden's cocky attitude began to get the better of him. He taunted Jackson Kain with exaggerated gestures and theatrical maneuvers, underestimating his opponent's abilities. This proved to be a costly mistake. As Jaden danced around the ring, he turned to face the audience, reciting a boastful rhyme about his impending victory. In that split second, Jackson Kain saw his opportunity. With lightning-fast reflexes, he unleashed his signature move, the Shadow Kick and rolled up Jaden for the win. Dan Club's young and cocky member got a lesson taught tonight via Shadow Kick to the chin.
Winner: Jackson Kain via Shadow Kick -> Pin

Larry Grim: And Jackson Kain with the win! Mav Valentine is on the stage applauding him. I think between this match and the win at Radical Dreamers, Kain is making a statement and Mav is picking up what he’s putting down.

Apple Kid: Can’t wait to see that match up!

Locker Room

Bashin Dan left the hallway, where he was hyping up his best friends Jammer and Vape, when he went to sit in the locker room and taping up his wrists for the main event. That’s when an unexpected figure walked in.

Viper: You’re the punk kid everyone has their eyes on huh? I’m not impressed.

Bashin Dan: You're the lone Gladiator that got kicked out of the group aren’t you?

Viper: I didn’t get kicked out! I left, when I realized I could make a lot more money working for guys like Kaiba, and now I’m doing my own thing!

Bashin Dan: Like taking money from “The Rumble” to stab your own friends in the back?

Viper: They weren’t my friends, and it wasn’t “The Rumble” that authorized it. I got paid by the same guy that wanted me to give you a message. He wanted me to tell you “I told you so”.

Bashin Dan: …

Viper: If he wants to get to you, it doesn’t matter if you’re on another brand. I’ll be here, and I’m more than happy to take his money, and bust some skulls. That’s what a REAL Gladiator does.

Bashin Dan: …You’re a disgrace to your fellow Glads…that’s a shame.

Viper: How about you and I fight right no-

Tower: Not without going through me Viper.

Viper: Tower…the only one I actually liked. Come on man…we were a good team.

Tower: Yeah…for one season.

Viper: Doesn’t matter how long! We were the best! Let’s kick his head in Gladiator style!

Tower: That’s not how we do it. We’re losing sight of that ourselves, by losing to those odd dudes in the opener. That was a wake up call, to be more like Eagleland Gladiators, and less like the hired goon you’re turning out to be. We came here to prove athletic superiority, not play mercenary.

Viper: Like I care! Doesn’t matter what you have to say. Money talks and bull*bleep* walks! I’m out of here.

Bashin Dan: …Thanks for the assist Tower.

Tower: You’re alright in our book kid.

4. 6-Woman Tag: Erica/Hilda Iceheart/Gianna Rambaldi vs. Christina Angel/Rei Hino/Ami Mizuno
-Next up, was a big women's match, as two contrasting teams prepared for a thrilling 6-woman tag team match. On one side stood Erica, Hilda Iceheart, and Gianna Rambaldi - a trio of nefarious rule breakers who had made a name for themselves with their underhanded tactics. Opposite them were Christina Angel, Rei Hino, and Ami Mizuno, a team that radiated determination and honor. As the bell rang, Christina, known for her unwavering commitment to fair play, took the center stage for her team. She faced off against Erica, who smirked confidently, reminding Christina of their storied history. Christina and Erica engaged in a technical wrestling exchange, with Christina using her skills to outmaneuver her opponent. However, Erica's teammates, Hilda and Gianna, wasted no time interfering with the match. They grabbed Christina's legs, tripping her up and distracting the referee. Rei and Ami, observing the unfair tactics from their corner, were growing increasingly frustrated. Rei stretched her arm out, desperately wanting to tag in and help her partner. But Erica's team continued their relentless onslaught, refusing to allow Christina any respite. As the match wore on, the nefarious trio of Erica, Hilda, and Gianna took their rule-breaking tactics to the extreme. They used foreign objects hidden beneath the ring to their advantage and frequently choked Christina behind the referee's back. Christina, however, was not one to back down. She persevered, attempting to fight back against the odds and bring her team to victory by fair means. Rei and Ami, watching their teammate's resilience, were ready to lend their assistance. But before Christina could mount a comeback, Erica's team went too far. They pulled out a steel chair from beneath the ring and swung it at Christina, who narrowly dodged the brutal attack. However, the chair collided with the referee, knocking him out cold. Christina, Rei, and Ami rallied, mounting a fierce offense against their cheating opponents. However, amidst the chaos, a second referee rushed to the ring to restore order. Erica cared little about the second ref and smashed her and Christina with a chair, finally forcing a DQ.
Winners: Christina Angel/Rei Hino/Ami Mizuno via DQ

After the match, Erica grabbed the microphone.

Erica: What did you think was going to happen Christina? You think I was going to make the same mistake twice? You think I was ever going to let you humiliate me again? That’ll NEVER happen again Christina. I spent too long at the bottom, subjecting myself to humiliation and then painful torture to realize that I was right all along. I was never the one at fault. I was never wrong, except that I allowed you to crush what I had built. That too will NEVER happen again. Eisenritter was built upon the shoulders of one Queen, but this…this is something new. Hilda is the Queen of Ice! Gianna is a Queen of Euroland. Together we Three Queens will conquer EBW once again, and we’ll create division in OUR IMAGE!

Makoto Kino: Oh…that’s not good.

Larry Grim: Makoto! You’re back!

Makoto Kino: Absolutely. Erica is standing tall, BUT I’m happy to see that Rei and Ami stood tall with Christina and WON….technically.

Apple Kid: The Three Queens huh? They’re sexy, but they’re not Minako sexy. They’re dangerous though, and they hold all the keys to success on the Xcite Brand. Moving onto the next match though-

Makoto Kino: A match that Gary was screeching about backstage. He kept pointing at the match graphic and squeeing. He wouldn’t stop squeeing. I love that enthusiasm I guess. It’s THE Mirror Match! Rains versus Blue Rains!

5. Singles: Rains vs. Blue Rains
-The next match was highly HIGHLY anticipated…for Good News Gary. Rains and Blue Rains circled each other, mirror images of one another in appearance and style. Their movements were synchronized, each trying to outmaneuver the other. It was like watching a reflection in a funhouse mirror. For several minutes, the match remained evenly matched. The two competitors executed identical moves, trading holds, strikes, and aerial maneuvers with precision. The crowd was captivated by this strange display of wrestling symmetry. But then, just as it seemed the match would end in a stalemate, a twist of fate occurred. Barry, Blue Rains' loyal manager, slid a lead-filled top hat into the ring. The crowd gasped as they watched Barry's underhanded tactic unfold. Blue Rains, with a malevolent grin, picked up the heavy top hat and struck Rains with it when the ref was too busy posing in front of hard cam. Her name is Aubrey by the way. She's terrible. Big Driz! Big Driz! Big Driz! Spear! 1-2-3! Blue Rains with the win over Rains.
Winner: Blue Rains via Big Drizz x Big Drizz x Big Drizz x Spear -> Pin

Larry, Apple, and Makoto: Gary isn’t going to be happy about this.

Backstage

Troy and Razorblade were furious and fired up, as Preacher Ra paced back and forth.

Preacher Ra: My brothers, dig this. You already won once, but tonight, you’re gonna take that gold, and we’ll be living the high life. You two are a monster tag team refined. You make those other brothers I was vibing with look lame in comparison, ya dig? Tonight, we’re going to show them all that The Rizz….IS.

Dan Club Locker Room

Jammer wandered back into the locker room looking for Vape, when he noticed someone else in the room.

Jammer: Hey Vape, I- huh? Who is that over there? Come out of that shower. Jenny, is that you? Are you here to surprise me with a little naked shower ti-

CP Munk stepped out of the shower.

Jammer: Oh…it’s you…wait…that’s actually surprising. What are YOU doing in here?

CP Munk: I had to use this shower, to make sure I wasn’t…discovered.

Jammer: By Tack? He deserves to find you! You’re dating his wife!

CP Munk: Ex-wife, and no I’m not! She left me too! I was manipulated!

Jammer: You gonna try and say it was all a misunderstanding?

CP Munk: Oh no, I totally knew what I was doing. I’m a notorious rat chasing poon hound.

Jammer: Poon munk?

CP Munk: What?

Jammer: Huh?

CP Munk: What did you-

Jammer: I was tryin’ to make sense of-

CP Munk: It doesn’t matter.

Jammer: I agree! Get out!

CP Munk: I don’t deserve this treatment! All I did was show everyone that maybe Tack Angel wasn’t as giving as one would expect! I was always the better member of our team, and you saw what he did with my nephew Cherub Kid!

Jammer: I literally don’t care. It’s not my problem. Go accept that match with Tack like a man….or Munk?

CP Munk: NO! I REFUSE! HE DOESN’T DESERVE IT! Colby, Rod, Randy, and I are all dead set on FINISHING! THE! STORY! That doesn’t include Tack! I-

Jammer: Again…I don’t care! GET OUT!

CP Munk: Fine! You’ve made a powerful enemy today Slam Master.

Jammer: What are you gonna do…sleep with Jenny…DO NOT SLEEP WITH JENNY! AREN’T YOU MARRIED?!

6. Singles: Sabre vs. Viper
-Next up, a fierce showdown was set to take place between two formidable competitors. Eagleland Gladiator Sabre, the embodiment of loyalty and strength, and the treacherous Gladiator traitor known as Viper, a mercenary with a reputation for deceit and cunning. Sabre, with his unwavering loyalty to the Gladiator code, stepped into the ring. Viper, on the other hand, strutted in, his eyes gleaming with a sinister glint. The two powerhouses locked eyes, and the battle of wills began. Sabre, driven by honor and duty, circled Viper cautiously. Viper, ever the opportunist, taunted Sabre with mocking gestures and sly remarks, trying to get inside his opponent's head. The match was a physical spectacle, as both competitors showcased their heavily muscled bodies, impressive strength, and copious amounts of baby oil for some reason. Sabre and Viper engaged in a series of brutal lock-ups, each vying for dominance. It was clear that this battle was as much about pride and redemption as it was about victory. Viper resorted to his underhanded tactics, attempting to rake Sabre's eyes and target his vulnerable areas. But Sabre, with his unwavering determination, fought through the pain and countered with a thunderous clothesline that sent Viper sprawling to the mat. As the match wore on, Sabre began to assert his dominance. He hoisted Viper onto his shoulders, displaying his incredible power, and applied the Torture Rack submission hold. The crowd watched in awe as Sabre bent Viper's body backward, subjecting him to agonizing pain. He writhed and squirmed, trying to break free from the excruciating hold. But Sabre's grip was unrelenting, and Viper's strength waned with every passing second, forcing a verbal submission from the Gladiator merc.
Winner: Sabre via Torture Rack -> Submission

Larry Grim: It was a tough match, but Sabre’s might made right on this night, and he grabbed a much needed win for the Gladiators.

Makoto Kino: Next up, it’s a big main event, where Tacky and Double G are going to defend the tag belts in a Ladder Match!

Apple Kid: Tacky?

Makoto Kino: *blush*

Larry Grim: They have their work cut out for them, as the Dream Team, Dan Club, and The Rizz are ALL hungry for the gold, and only ONE TEAM can escape this ladder free for all with the EBW Tag Team Championships! We have the best teams and the best tag matches in EBW right here on the Xcite Brand! Let’s do it to it!

7. EBW Tag Team Championship Ladder Match: Tack Angel(c)/Geoff Garrett(c) vs. Razorblade/Troy vs. Rama Raju/Bashin Dan vs. Jammer/Vape
-The EBW Tag Team Championship ladder match was set to be a high-stakes showdown, with four teams vying for the coveted titles. In one corner stood the reigning champions, Tack Angel and Geoff Garrett, ready to defend their gold. The challengers included Dan Club (Jammer and Vape), The Rizz (Razorblade and Troy), and The Dream Team (Bashin Dan and EBW Champion Rama Raju). The atmosphere was electric as the teams made their entrances. The crowd knew they were in for a thrilling contest filled with creative ladder spots. The bell rang, and the chaos ensued. Early in the match, Vape and Jammer of Dan Club set up a ladder in the center of the ring. Vape ascended it, reaching for the championships, but Geoff Garrett thwarted his attempt with a guitar to the back. Meanwhile, Bashin Dan and Rama Raju displayed their teamwork by launching themselves off the top rope onto their opponents below. The Rizz, known for their dastardly tactics, introduced tables into the mix. Razorblade powerbombed Tack Angel through one table, earning a chorus of boos from the audience. In retaliation, Geoff Garrett hit Razorblade with a ladder in a jaw-dropping display of power. He offered Tack his hand, but Tack rolled out of the way as another ladder fell on Double G. He probably didn't have enough time to warn him. As the match progressed, ladder spots became increasingly creative. Rama Raju executed a springboard moonsault off a ladder onto the entire field of competitors. Jammer used a ladder as a battering ram, sending Geoff Garrett and Troy crashing into the barricade. With bodies strewn around the ring, Bashin Dan climbed a massive ladder set up in the center. He was inches away from grabbing the championships when, out of nowhere, Colby Roads rushed into the ring. The crowd gasped as Colby pushed the ladder over, sending Bashin Dan tumbling to the mat below. Double G, capitalizing on the chaos, scrambled up the ladder. With his fingertips grazing the titles, he wrenched them off the hook, defending the EBW Tag Team Championships for The Crew.
Winners: Geoff Garrett[o]/Tack Angel via Title Grab -> Title Defense!

Makoto Kino: Tack yes! I’m so happy for him and Geoff. The legendary run of the best team in EBW continues! I’m so so happy for him! I just love him SO MUCH!

Apple Kid: ….

Larry Grim: ….

Makoto Kino: …What….what did I say?

Larry Grim: *whispers in Makoto’s ear*

Makoto Kino: I SAID WHAAAAAAAAAT?!

A fired up Trevor Mach could be heard in the room, punching and kneeing a pad that Picky was holding, while Mac and Cade cheered him on. Subculture walked out to go call his wife, when he bumped into someone he wasn’t expecting.

Darius Grouch: Just the man I was looking for.

Subculture: Oh? You need something boss?

Darius Grouch: Do I need something? I don’t need anything, but I want things Subculture. I want things from you.

Subculture: ….

Darius Grouch: When I took you on the roster, I wanted a street dog. I’m not as interested in the “loyal puppy”. It’s not as much fun to me. I enjoyed watching you and Mach trying to end each other a few years back.

Subculture: Oh yeah? You don’t think I’m a street dog anymore? Put me in any match you want, boss. I’ll show you what you have on your hands.

Darius Grouch: “Boss”....that denotes respect. Would a street dog respect anyone?

Subculture: You have my respect until such time as you give me a reason to rescind it….boss.

Darius Grouch: Heh. I wonder what you’ve got inside of you. Do you have that hunger? Do you have that ambition? I want to see for myself. I’ll tell you what I’m going to do. This in my hand is something I’m going to call the “VIP Card”. When I hand one of these out, it comes with a privilege that only the holder of the card will have. In this case, this card is for you. You can use this card to have a title match, any title match that you want, and you can have it whenever you want. You can take this card and say “I want the World Champion in a match for the belt right now” and you got it. Do you understand what I’m saying to you “Subbie”. You have the power to claim your destiny right here. That’s what a Darius Grouch VIP Card is going to give you. It’s all yours. What are you going to do with it? How valuable is respect to you? What’s the price for loyalty?

Subculture: …I have…to go call my wife. Thanks for the card.

Darius Grouch: ….Heh. That should make things more interesting.


“Skillet - Feel Invincible”



Tommy Dukes: Welcome to Renegade Arena! We’re in Saturn City, the homebase for Havok and Havok only! Sorry Xcite….SORRY WE DIDN’T DO IT EARLIER!

Nerma: This IS a turf war after all, and we’ve got the best turf around. You hear that Saturn City residents, I REALLY REALLY love this city, so please….please…help me get free parking. I have to pay to park and it’s SO expensive. This city is big…too big…I mean TOO AWESOME!

Tommy Dukes: We have the show of the week for you this week. Don’t even bother with the rest, cause you’re here for the best. We’ve got Paula making a huge announcement tonight after winning the Women’s World Championship at Radical Dreamers. Darkness Aoi got involved, and we still don’t know why. Will we find out? We have a Television Championship match! We have the debut of Boz! We have….get this…the Havok singles debut of CRONO tonight! He’ll be in a DREAM MATCH against Cade Yaggis! We’re GIVING that to you! How about that scene earlier though. Subculture was handed a VIP Card by Darius Grouch, that says he can challenge for any time at any time.

Nerma: He’s obviously testing the Green Bomber and his loyalty to Blood 4 Blood right there. He can make an attempt to be World Champion whenever he wants, and the title is right there beside him. That is the ultimate temptation is it not? What is Subbie going to do?

Tommy Dukes: Before we figure that out, we have our first match, and we’re starting strong with the World Champion Trevor Mach. The Bad Man will take on Pucky in a Bushido Rules bout, so let’s TAKE IT TO THE RING!

EBW: Havok
Renegade Arena, Saturn City
ENT

1. Non-Title Bushido Rules: Trevor Mach vs. Pucky
-The opening contest was a Bushido Rules match, pitting the reigning World Champion, Trevor Mach, against the underdog, Pucky. As usual no rope breaks and no escape from the ring, making submissions and referee stoppages the keys to victory. The bell rang, and the match began. Trevor Mach, with his championship confidence, immediately took control. Pucky, the plucky underdog, was always up for a good fight, but Trevor's dominance was evident from the get-go. Trevor executed a series of impressive takedowns and ground control maneuvers, keeping Pucky on the mat and showcasing his superior grappling skills. Pucky tried to fight back with everything he had, but Trevor's relentless pressure was too much to handle. As the match wore on, Trevor transitioned smoothly from one submission hold to another, targeting Pucky's limbs and forcing him to fight off multiple painful submissions. The crowd watched in awe as Pucky's resilience was put to the test. Pucky, with sweat dripping from his brow, refused to tap out. He dug deep into his reserves, displaying the Bushido spirit of never giving up. But Trevor, determined to prove his dominance, continued his assault. In the final moments of the match, Trevor blasted Pucky with the Knee Trigger. He transitioned seamlessly into the ground and pound, raining down a flurry of powerful strikes on Pucky's vulnerable head and body. The referee, seeing Pucky's inability to defend himself, had no choice but to call for the stoppage.
Winner: Trevor Mach via Knee Trigger x Ground and Pound -> Referee Stoppage

After the match, a fired up Trevor Mach grabbed a mic.

Trevor Mach: Metal Milita! That one is for you! Pucky’s got more GUTS than all of you combined. He didn’t put on a mask! He didn’t stab anyone in the back! He faced me like a man! I got more respect for that toothless hockey reject-

Pucky: Hey what the *bleep*!?

Trevor Mach: Sorry! I have more respect for HIM, than I do for any of you. I’m sure you don’t care, but that’s whatever. I’m not going to get too bothered about that. Let me place pop a little and say that this is OUR HOUSE! This is the Renegade Arena! These people are here, because they WANT what we’ve got, and if you don’t like it, you can put up or shut up in the ring! Ness and Crono, I KNOW you don’t have anything to say about it, but Poo, you listen up and you listen good. Anytime you want a shot at me, come and take it! I’m going to warn you though, in the ring I don’t have any limits Poo. If I want to start a new game, I make my own rules! I always have. That’s the way it’s going to be. You know, for a while I was thinking about taking a step back. I was thinking about doing what you all did, and letting the future over take the here and now. You know what that gets you? We know now! Bitterness and resentment! Jealousy! That’s fine! That’s cool! I’ve been bitter! I’ve had resentment! I understand. I think it SUCKS! I’d rather be in here fighting until my heart stops and God tells me the fighting is over! I’m fighting for myself, and I’m fighting for all of these people! You Renegades love me, and I love you, and that’s a shoot, but for as much as you love me, the Metal Militia hate me. The more you love me, the more they hate me. Hate is going to consume them, so it’s real simple. If you want to help Blood 4 Blood fight the Metal Militia, then you just keep showing that love! Cheap pop, earned pop, I’ll take ‘em all! Dig down deep! Show them what you’re made of! Show them what you stand for, not just here, in life! You’re Renegades! WE are Renegades! Oh, and Subculture…I saw the video. Anytime and any place my brother. I understand. You do what you’ve got to do.

Backstage

Mrs. Xtra: Mrs. Xtra here, and I’m ovulating. You didn’t need to know that, but Mav is probably watching, and he forgot to charge his phone AGAIN….so I’m just putting that out there. LOVE YOU BABY! *clears throat* Moving on, I have news for you all concerning Paula! The news is she’s on her way out after the next match….that’s what I’ve got there…it’s not much. OH! I have Wendy here! The former Women’s World Champion!

Wendy Mustang: Shoot and tarnation! You gotta say it with such enthusiam?!

Mrs. Xtra: The uh…former..uh…Women’s….World Champion.

Wendy Mustang: Better! Yeah, that former part stings like hellfire! I was reckoning I’d be champ for a long time, but Darkness Aoi wanted to step in it, and she surely did. I’m not going to forget that for a long time chicky. You done goofed up big time. As for Paula, she’s a veteran in this sport, and I looked up to her, then I looked directly eye to eye at her in that ring. She’s as good as everyone says she is. She’s better. I was getting pushed hard, and I didn’t know if I had it to win, but I was cheated out of figuring that out. Not by her….not by her…Aoi. I have torn between two feelings right now. I want a showdown with the champ, so I can get my belt back! I want to take Aoi’s HEAD OFF! Which do I do first? Decisions decisions! *sigh* I’m just as interested in what Paula’s got to say as anybody else. I’m going to go out there myself.

Lainey Strong: You’re not going alone either.

Wendy Mustang: Lainey. I’m sorry girl, that I wasn’t able to give that title shot that we were talki-

Lainey Strong: It’ll come around. Don’t worry about it right now. We’re the Sunset Riders right? We’re in this together. Let’s head out there and see what she’s got to say.

Wendy Mustang: You got it partner.

Mrs. Xtra: ….They’re good friends. I wish I had a friend.

2. Singles: Boz[Debut] vs. Tony Wonder
-Debuting in the squared circle in the next bout was Boz, the grizzled, older biker with a stoic and ruthless demeanor, as he faced Tony Wonder, a self-proclaimed bad magician with a penchant for ill-fated tricks. Boz, with his intimidating presence, circled Tony Wonder, who sported a flashy magician's cape and a wide, confident grin. Tony Wonder, eager to showcase his "magic," reached into his hat and pulled out a bouquet of flowers, tossing them into the air with a flourish. The crowd chuckled at his theatrical antics, but Boz remained unfazed. He lunged at Tony, grabbing him by the throat, and silenced the magician's attempts at showmanship. With brute force, Boz lifted Tony Wonder high into the air and executed a bone-jarring powerbomb. The impact shook the ring, and Tony lay motionless on the mat. Boz, with a stoic expression, placed his foot on Tony's chest as the referee counted the pinfall. 1-2-3! One move and the match was over!
Winner: Boz via Powerbomb -> Pin

Tommy Dukes: WHOA! Holy cannoli, that was fast! One move was all it took, and that foot to pin him?! This guy ain’t kidding!

Nerma: No time for your tricks Tony Wonder. This is where the Renegades fight to survive, but when our little one is old enough for a big birthday party, we’ll hire you for it. How about that?

Tommy Dukes: Sweet!

Nerma: …It’s for our son.

Tommy Dukes: Right…yes…of course. Well, Boz is wasting no time, he’s leaving the ring as Tony Wonder seems to be trying to disappear in a cloud of smoke.

Nerma: He says trying to, because we can clearly see him crawling away into the crowd, and now they’re all pointing him out. Where is El Mago to deal with this guy again?

Tommy Dukes: He uh…disappeared for real?

Nerma: Huh?

Tommy Dukes: He’s REALLY good.

Nerma: …I see. Well folks, we’ve been waiting for this since Radical Dreamers, and the announcement that Paula was going to have the main event spot tonight, and it looks like she’s got a lot to say, so let’s sit back and listen in and hope we get some answers.

Paula: I uh…I got a lot swirling in my mind right now. It’s been a crazy, roller coaster of a week for me. I came back to wrestling, so I could right some wrongs, and so that I could become World Champion, which is something I’d been striving to do since Ness presented this whole crazy idea to me. “Let’s be wrestlers” he’d say, and you’ll have to take my word for it on that. He grew up watching wrestling, and he was very athletic, and he knew how to do it and do it well. He turned out to be phenomenal. I was a little unsure of myself personally, because I’d spent my childhood basically feeling like a damsel in distress. Whenever I was in trouble, Ness would come running. He saved me from cultists once upon a time, anyone remember that? I didn’t know if I could do it, but I wanted to give it my best to be the best. Turns out I found my confidence, and I knew I was the best. I was an uncrowned champion, but motherhood took my attention away from the ring. I wanted to give Will all of my attention, until such time as I felt I could come back and give this my all again. I found ways to make it work. I found ways to train around taking him back and forth from daycare or the babysitter. I’d read him a bedtime story, and then I’d go into the basement and run drills all night. It wasn’t easy, but I did it because it was worth it, so that I could raise my son and still prove to myself that I could win this title belt. Family had to come first though. You should always put your family ahead of your career. That’s what people do where I come from. In Onett and Twoson we try to have dignity and respect in that sense, but that’s a little harder nowadays considering that this turf war means I’m competing for a brand that isn’t even allowed in Twoson right now. I don’t know, I think I bring all of this up to tell you how much it pains me to have finally done everything the right way, and then I come back to win this belt, and I find out it wasn’t all because of me. Darkness Aoi got involved, and because of that this reign was tainted from the start. This was my time to be a World Champion, and now everyone is left wondering if I had what it took to win. If I could have done it on my own. That’s really lousy. Wendy Mustang, could you come out here please. I’d like you here for this.

Wendy Mustang came out to the ring with Lainey Strong, neither of them looking too happy at the situation either.

Paula: You brought Lainey out. That’s good. I can’t say I blame you. Lainey, I have nothing but respect for your father. Once upon a time Ness had to help your father, and then he helped Ness in a big way, so despite everything else, we’ve had that foundation from the start. Wendy, these Renegades love you. They see you as everything they want in a champion. I get that. You’re brash and you speak from the heart. You fight from the heart. You represent a dying breed, and that’s commendable. You’re a throwback to a better class of athlete. I would be honored to give you a rematch for this championship. I hope you know that. Before that though, I want to try and make it up to you in a different way. I’m told “The Rumble” wants to save that rematch for a big money draw, so what’s a girl to do in a situation like that. You come up with a Plan B. Dem Girlz are the Women’s World Tag Team Champions. They are a throwback like yourself, and I respect what they do too. I’d love a chance to take them on, and I’d love nothing more than to have you as my partner tonight. That is the main event match I requested. Lainey, no offense to you at all, but I can’t resist taking part in the match myself. I don’t want to cause a scene though. I’m not looking to make a new problem here, so it’ll only go down if that’s alright with you?

Lainey Strong: That puts me in a tough spot Paula, I’m not going to lie. I want nothing but success for Wendy. She was and will be a worthy World Champion. She proved that to me when we faced off. I fired her up to get the best out of her, and it was too much for me on that night. If I couldn’t be champ, than I was proud that she was. That would have to be good enough for awhile. That didn’t mean I was giving up my championship aspirations though, far from it! I still want to be World Champion! I still want to be World Tag Team Champion! So it’s a little tough to hear that you’re expecting me to step aside. I go back to that respect for Wendy though. I want her to have success, cause she has proven she deserves it. More than that…she’s my friend. If THAT is how she’s going to get a title shot tonight, then how can I refuse it.

Wendy Mustang: Lainey, dagnabbit I don’t need to push you aside or step over you to get where I’m going! I’m fully capable of getting title matches and more importantly certain REMATCHES without a pity handout.

Paula: This isn’t a pity hand out. This is a show of solidarity. I will give you a rematch because you deserve it, and this match tonight is symbolic of that. What do you say?

Lainey Strong: Do it Wendy. Don’t turn it down for me. We’re in this sport to succeed. We’ll still be friends no matter what.

Wendy Mustang: …I say…you better be ready…because Jenny and Jessy are not to be taken lightly.

Paula: Don’t I know it. Let’s win some more gold tonight in the main event!

3. Standing Strikes Only: Ilya Fedorovich vs. Hazen
-Ilya Fedorovich and Hazen, prepared to engage in a standing strikes-only wrestling match. The crowd anticipated a clash of raw power and striking ability. As the bell rang, Ilya and Hazen circled each other, their eyes locked in a steely gaze. Both competitors were known for their devastating strikes, and the audience knew they were in for an intense battle. The match began with a series of blistering kicks and punches exchanged between Ilya and Hazen. Each strike echoed through the arena, and the crowd watched in awe as the two competitors showcased their striking prowess. Hazen, with his cold and stoic demeanor, insulted Ilya between strikes, attempting to get into his opponent's head. However, Ilya remained focused and composed, letting his fists do the talking. As the match progressed, the strikes grew more ferocious. Ilya connected with a thunderous knee to Hazen's midsection, causing him to double over in pain. Hazen retaliated with a crushing elbow to Ilya's jaw, staggering him. But it was Ilya who had the last word. With a sudden burst of energy, he unleashed a devastating KO Punch that knocked Hazen to the mat. With no sign of him wanting back up, the ref called for the KO. A win for Ilya Fedorovich over his former War Kings "superior".
Winner: Ilya Fedorovich via KO

Ilya Fedorovich: Do you see that? I was always the true War King! I was the best of that failed experiment. We were an army with a corrupt and inept leader. I felt your orbital bone break under my fist Hazen. I want you to remember that I never took the money. I never sold out! I never sold out our values or our countries! I had my differences with those in charge, but the people, their blood, it runs through MY veins. Nothing is over with the Green Bomber…but you Hazen…I’m done with you.

Backstage

Subculture paced back and forth, looking at the VIP Card in his hand. He pulled out a picture of Christina and himself and sighed, before clutching the card and walking away with purpose.

4. EBW Television Championship: Johnny Starbound(c) vs. Benjamin
-The next match was for the Television Championship. The champion, Johnny Starbound, was known for his agile high-flying style and array of dazzling lucha libre moves. His challenger was none other than Benjamin, the beloved hero of the wrestling world, who earned this shot after a match with Subculture. Johnny Starbound wasted no time, using his incredible agility to gain the upper hand. He executed a series of breathtaking lucha libre moves, including dazzling springboard moonsaults and lightning-fast arm drags. Benjamin, however, was no slouch and countered with powerful strikes and an impressive display of mat wrestling, the highest quality work as expected from the Mystic Bout Machine. The back-and-forth action had the crowd on the edge of their seats. Benjamin, with his heroic spirit, aimed to win the Television Championship with his finishing move, the Masamune. He had Johnny Starbound in his sights and began the setup for the move. As Benjamin lifted Johnny high into the air, preparing to deliver the Masamune, Zyro Kurogane jumped into the ring, and clipped Benji in the knee, which lead to Johnny's escape, and the DQ. Mike Thunder and Isiah Muscle ran in as well, and Samurai Ifrit put the boots to Benjamin. Lainey Strong ran out as Renegade Security tried to halt the attack. Benji won, but the title remained with Starbound.
Winner: Benjamin via DQ

Tommy Dukes: Samurai Ifrit on the attack! Lainey Strong, Benjamin’s girlfriend is trying to pull him out of the ring as Renegade Security try to keep them at bay, but Zyro Kurogane’s team, the World Team Champions, are fairly certain the rules don’t apply to them. I think we have a term for people like that.

Nerma: Heels!

Tommy Dukes: I was gonna say de'er-do-wells, but sure.

Zyro Kurogane: Story time with Zyro-K BEY-BEEEEY! Samurai Ifrit run this show! Let’s never forget that! You owe US! We don’t owe you! You owe US! WE won the match against the Eagleland Gladiators, and because of that WE bring you “The Storm”. This weekend on ENT, you get another dose of Havok, and that’s because of US! YOU’RE WELCOME! YOU’RE WELCOME ENT! We know how much you love and crave wrestling, though your past attempts haven’t quite worked out huh? Never send a woman to do a man’s job! Only a guy like myself could LET IT RIP, and topple those Glads, and give you a whole other show, that will feature the best talent in the world. No, not those Renegade clowns in the back. I’m talking about Samurai Ifrit! We’re the World Team Champions, and Johnny Starbound is STILL the Television Champion!

Johnny Starbound: This is a lesson about what happens when you try to get in our way! We’re flying high, and nothing is going to get in the way of Johnny Starbound and Samurai Ifri-

Subculture: Did I hear that right? Nothing is going to get in the way of Johnny Starbound? Did I hear that? It’s funny John John, because I’ve been called “nothing” by a lot of people my whole life. The Boss even thinks I’m nothing. Why? Cause I’m not like I used to be? That would make me like all of you, and I don’t see the value in it anymore. I don’t see the point. I’ve learned a few things in the last few years. I’ve learned about loyalty, friendship, and respect. I’ve learned about doing things the right way, and while that might not be cool or popular, it is the mark of a Renegade these days. Trad is Chad right now! You know what I want? I want to be the World Champion. I’ve been scratching and clawing to get back there for a long time. You know what I want more? When Christina and I have a child in the future, I want that son or daughter to be able to look back at moments like this, and to know that their poppa did the RIGHT thing! Trevor, is the World Champion, but he’s also my friend. You’re the Television Champion, and you are NOT my friend. That makes this very very easy for me. I’m turning in my VIP Card RIGHT NOW, and I’m challenging YOU to a title match, and I’m not coming in alone!

Little Mac, Trevor Mach, Cade Yaggis, and Picky Minch ran out, and stood along with Benjamin and Lainey Strong outside of the ring, as Subculture rolled in to face a bewildered and off his game Johnny Starbound for the title.

5. EBW Television Championship: Johnny Starbound(c) vs. Subculture
-In a surprising turn of events, the Television Champion, Johnny Starbound, found himself facing an unexpected challenger, Subculture. Subculture wasted no time, charging at Johnny Starbound with an explosive burst of energy. Johnny, still trying to collect himself, was met with a barrage of hard-hitting strikes and powerful slams. It was a one-sided affair from the get-go. Subculture's agility and intensity were unmatched, and Johnny struggled to mount any significant offense. With a sudden burst of speed, Subculture delivered a devastating KO Punch. Johnny crumpled to the mat, completely dazed. Subculture then executed the Counterculture, a high-impact finishing move that left no room for escape. 1-2-3! Subculture used that VIP Card from "The Rumble" to claim the EBW Television Championship.
Winner: Subculture via KO Punch x Counter Culture -> Pin -> NEW EBW Television Champion!

Tommy Dukes: UNREAL! The title has changed hands! Subculture is the NEW EBW Television Champion!

Nerma: The Green Bomber did the right thing! It wasn’t the easiest decision, but it was the right one, and now Blood 4 Blood have two belts, instead of battling over just the one. Trevor looks to be telling Subbie he can still have a title bout whenever he wants from the looks of it. That’s a class act right there. Subculture is grabbing the mic again. Let’s listen in.

Subculture: Do you see that Metal Militia? That’s called dignity. I’m leaving this ring with my head held high, because I didn’t sell out my principles. That’s what we’re all about. That’s what being a Renegades is about! You’re against that? You’re definitely against me!

Tommy Dukes: It’s definitely funny how quickly things have changed in the world, where the code honoring warriors are considered the rebels, but here we are. Respect and honor are the outliers, but that is what we value here in Havok.

Nerma: Cade Yaggis will be coming back out in just a bit for a super huge match, where he will be taking on the Metal Militia’s Crono, and from what I’ve seen in the back, he’s got that fourth member of the team with him that is still under the mask. We don’t know who that is yet, but maybe we’ll find out tonight. Before that though…we got some of THIS!

Backstage

Darkness Aoi and Mitra Lennox were seen speaking with Valarie Dorado.

Valarie Dorado: It’s been several days, and you still haven’t paid me. I expect cold hard cash, when I dust off the boots to do someone else’s dirty work.

Darkness Aoi: You could take the cash, or you could accept my offer.

Valarie Dorado: To do what exactly? You want to “toughen up” the roster? Heh…the mercenary wanted a mercenary, yet she forgot how this all works. You want power? I just want money and success, and I can get that by myself. I didn’t even sign on that dotted line yet for a contract with Havok. I’m a free agent, and now that I’ve shown what I can do, a bidding war will present itself. Hand me the money…if you please.

Darkness Aoi: …Mitra.

Mitra Lennox: Take it and leave then.

Valarie Dorado: Gladly. If you want my services again though, I do have a price.

Valarie turned to walk away, but bumped into Hope Mach. She stuttered for a moment, before side stepping her and walking away, leaving Hope staring down Aoi.

Darkness Aoi: I know you can’t hear me, but you can read my lips, so look closely. You don’t want any of this. Not again…not now….not ever.

Hope Mach: *signing while talking* I don’t know why you did what you did, but I’m keeping my eyes on you.

Mitra Lennox: Certainly can’t keep an ear to the ground. What good would that do? Walk away nepo-baby. Your dad might be on top of his game, but you’re playing disciplinarian to a couple of slack off gamer girls. You’re not a part of this. Walk away.

Hope Mach: *signing while talking* I have never…and will never…walk away from any challenge. I don’t have to hear, to know you’ve got BS coming out of your mouths. Watch yourselves.

Darkness Aoi: …

6. Singles: Crono vs. Cade Yaggis
-The next match, saw a dream match that truly felt like it could never happen only one week ago. On one side was Crono, the superstar from Chrono Trigger Wrestling, who had recently joined the formidable Metal Militia faction. Opposite him was Cade Yaggis, the rising star affectionately nicknamed "Trigger" by his fans. The Renegades cheered with excitement as Crono and Cade Yaggis locked eyes, each determined to prove their superiority. Crono, with years of experience, was well aware of the challenge Trigger posed. The opening moments of the match showcased Cade Yaggis' incredible agility and quickness. He darted around the ring, dodging Crono's attempts to catch him. Crono, however, was not to be underestimated. He countered Cade's acrobatics with his veteran savvy, catching him in a tight headlock. Cade fought his way out of the headlock and executed a picture-perfect dropkick that sent Crono reeling to the corner. The crowd erupted in cheers for Cade's impressive athleticism. Cade seized the moment and launched himself off the ropes, aiming for a high-flying maneuver. But Crono, the wily veteran, had regained his composure. He caught Cade in mid-air and planted him with a spine-rattling powerbomb. The impact reverberated through the arena, leaving Cade gasping for breath. Crono capitalized on his momentum and relentlessly targeted Cade's lower back, weakening his high-impact arsenal. He applied a series of punishing submission holds, keeping Trigger grounded. As the match reached its climax, Cade Yaggis summoned his inner resolve. He fought through the pain, mounting a thrilling comeback that had the crowd on their feet. With lightning-quick strikes and high-impact moves, Cade brought Crono to the brink of defeat. However, Crono, determined to show the newcomer the pecking order in EBW, fought back with unmatched tenacity. He executed his signature Spinning Back Elbow, dazing Cade. With Trigger disoriented, Crono followed up with a Double Arm DDT and the pin.
Winner: Crono via Wind Slash[Spinning Back Elbow] x Luminarie[Double Arm DDT] -> Pin

After the win, Ness, Poo, and the fourth man in the mask jumped into the ring, holding the Metal Militia banner aloft. Crono was handed a mic for some reason given his nature.

Crono: …..

Poo: Here, I’ll take that Crono. You idiot! You don’t hand off the mic to Crono OR Ness! They might have had a few things to say in the past, but these days, that’s my job, and it’s something that comes easy for me. Like I said before, I have trained in the art of Mu. I can turn it all off with the flip of a switch. That’s what you need in a world that REQUIRES the Metal Militia. Blood 4 Blood claim that they are about honor and dignity. They think they’re about respect. Mach is a clown, Subculture is a dog, Picky is a backstabber, and this naive punk is a traitor. They’ll say anything to get you on their side, but the fact is, we represent what you TRULY need! You need the core of EBW back in action, running the show, and saving the day like only we can, and in the process, we’re going to put everything right in this sport. Guys like Mach have had their fun for too long. Now it’s our turn to have fun, and make no mistake, we’re having fun. We WON at Radical Dreamers, and we’ll keep on winning, cause the surprises have only just begun. Crono is the best of the best from CTW. Someone find that nerd girl Lucca, the one that is devoted to Mrs. Mobility Mach to an unhealthy degree. They’re old friends. Crono and Lucca grew up together! He’d of COURSE rather court a Princess than a nerd, so he made the right call, but even though Lucca was slighted to the point it turned her into Tali Mach’s loyal puppy, she’d still tell you just how incredible Crono is. He’s on the level of Ness and myself. He’s on the level of those who deserve to be at the top. He just showed you a taste. The Trigger fired blanks, and now we’re going to finish this lesson with him right now.

Ness leaned back into a corner of the ring, as Poo, Crono, and the fourth man circled the downed Cade Yaggis. Blood 4 Blood ran back out for yet another confrontation on the same night, and got into it with the faction. Cade was helped out of the ring by Little Mac, but Mac was dropped by a cutter from the masked man. Subculture, was quick to respond, and ripped the mask off the person, which left everyone shocked, when they saw who it was, and the state they were in.

Tommy Dukes: That’s….that’s…..w00t?!

Nerma: It’s not JUST w00t! It’s w00t in the Tanooki Suit! It’s Tanooki w00t!

w00t was twitching and grinning from ear to ear, as he “happily” carried out every action Poo was barking at him. As the Blood 4 Blood team stepped back at the sight, they were suddenly blindsided by TWO MORE masked men, who jumped over the guard rails. Eventually, “The Rumble” having been amused enough in the VIP seats, allowed Renegade Security to scramble and regain control.

Tommy Dukes: Wow! Metal Militia had w00t this whole time!? Worse yet, he’s back in the classic Tanooki Suit? On top of that, we have two more members of the Militia apparently. I’m shocked! What is going to happen next!?

Nerma: Well I’ll tell ya what’s going to happen immediately after this…and that’s our main event! Paula and Wendy Mustang are going to join forces to take on Jenny and Jessy James, the Women’s World Tag Team Champions! Dem Girlz have a big challenge coming up in the main event sooooo…

Tommy Dukes: LET’S TAKE IT TO THE RING! Seriously, the Tanooki Suit is back? We’re scraping the bottom of the barrel if-

Nerma: *clears throat*

Tommy Dukes: Huh? What? I never liked the Tanooki Suit!

Nerma: Neither did w00t, but here we are.

7. Women’s World Tag Team Championships: Jenny James(c)/Jessy James(c) vs. Paula/Wendy Mustang
-Women's World Tag Team Championship match was set to begin. The reigning champions, Dem Girlz, were prepared to defend their titles against the formidable challengers, Women's World Champion Paula and former World Champion Wendy Mustang. As the bell rang, the crowd roared in excitement. Dem Girlz, Jenny James and Jessy James, faced off against Paula and Wendy Mustang. The sisters were feeling the exhilaration of the match, as they executed seamless teamwork and quick tags, keeping their challengers on the defensive. Paula, the Women's World Champion, brought her formidable skills to the match, using her speed and technical prowess to counter Dem Girlz's early advances. Wendy Mustang, the former World Champion, showcased her power with a series of impactful moves, including a thunderous spinebuster. The match was back and forth, with each team taking control at various points. Dem Girlz displayed their tag team chemistry, isolating Wendy Mustang and targeting her with precise double-team maneuvers. However, Paula's resilience and quick thinking kept her team in the game. Paula managed to tag herself in just as Jenny James was about to hit her signature move. Paula unleashed a dazzling array of high-impact kicks, including her signature Psy Kick. Jenny James, reeling from the Psy Kick, fell to the mat, and Paula made the cover as Wendy BLASTED Jessy with a Lariat. 1-2-3! Paula and Wendy Mustang beat Dem Girlz to become the NEW World Tag Team Champions!
Winners: Paula[o]/Wendy Mustang via Psy Kick on Jenny James -> Pin -> NEW Women’s World Tag Team Champions!

Nerma: WE HAVE NEW WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS! NEW WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS! I DON’T BELIEVE IT! PAULA IS NOW A DOUBLE CHAMPION!

Tommy Dukes: The legend and the cowgirls are celebrating in the ring, and why wouldn’t they? They’re clanging the title belts together in a show of solidarity. They’re both asking Jenny and Jessy back into the ring to shake their hands. That’s a sign of the sportsmanship, respect, and honor we have here at-

Nerma: Here comes Aoi and Mitra.

Tommy Dukes: Oh no.

Darkness Aoi and Mitra Lennox went on the attack, jumping Jenny James and Wendy Mustang as they shook hands. Paula and Jessy James tried to fight them off, as Darkness grabbed a microphone.

Darkness Aoi: Paula, you think that title belongs to you? I gave that to you. Why would I do that? Because I like you? Because I hate Wendy? Maybe it’s because you’re both soft, and I want a title match against the “easier win” or maybe it’s because I want a challenge. That’s my business, and I don’t really feel like sharing with you or these people. As for this? Well, I think that’s clear. We want a title match! Next week, we’re DEMANDING you put those newly won World Tag Team Championships on the line!

Paula: You think Mustang and I are afraid of you? After the match we had against each other? After the match we had with Dem Girlz? Jenny and Jessy deserve the rematch, but I don’t back down when I’m called out. I think Wendy would agree?

Wendy Mustang: Yippie-ki yay.

Paula: You’re on Aoi. You’re absolutely on!

Darius Grouch VIP Room

The Havok Boss sat in his VIP Room, laughing to himself as he watched all the chaos unfold to close out his show. As he turned to face the camera, he revealed many more VIP Cards in his possession.

Darius Grouch: I'm only getting started stirring the pot. Heh.

Ted Pettentool: Hey guys, it’s me, the tool of EBW! Why? Because I’m multi-faceted, and not another thing! We are running wild with the brand war aren’t we? Havok just had a big week of damage done to the Xciters, but President Swift is taking it really well from his new office in ENN’s HQ in Fourside!

EBW HQ - ENN Fourside Branch

Nosan was pushing a broom outside of Swift’s office, when a chair was heard smashing out of a window, and a table getting flipped so many times it went through the wall behind Nosan.

Nosan: *looks to the Lakitu* If anyone asks, you didn’t see me here.

Nosan ran off as Swift yelled in perpetual anger from his office.

-

Ted Pettentool: See? He’s doing great! He’s intending to fire up his Xciters, when they traverse into Summers for the first time since Harley Rexx put a ban on EBW. He’s apparently more than happy to help the brand that doesn’t have a single Mach on it, and that includes his disowned daughter. He DOES have a step daughter though, and a former step son in law. I’m sure Tack Angel is excited to take the Angel Express down to Summers to rally the fans behind getting Swift to give him a shot against CP Munk, the man who ruined his marriage!

Tack Angel’s New Bachelor Pad - Fourside

Tack sat on the mattress he put on the floor, and watched television from a small monitor, as he ate beans from a can, and tried to hold back tears every time he looked at old family pictures. All of a sudden, a familiar tune began to play on the television. Chuck Mangione’s classic “Feels So Good”.

Tack Angel: Oh no. Oh no no no! Oh n- ♫ Tracy please, come back to me…and back to the kids, you know we miss you oh so much, I miss your touch, and I really hate that I have to pay alimonyyyyyy!!!! ♫

-

Ted Pettentool: He seems really excited, and why wouldn’t he be!? He’s not in action, BUT he’s been requested to appear for a HUGE ANNOUNCEMENT from Double G, the Undisputed Mars Champion, the VBW Champion, and one half of the EBW Tag Team Champions with Tack! He wants the whole Weekend Wrecking Crew to be there! Tack was asked if he was going to attend. We heard “No” and then the phone cut out. We have to assume he was having signal issues and what he said was “No way would I miss what my good good friend and Undisputed Mars Champion Geoff Garrett has to say!” I mean that just makes sense right? It’s going to be a big show, with Jammer and Vape taking on The Rizz in the opener, followed by Jackson Kain taking on Point Man. Kain also has some words for Mav Valentine I hear, as our boy travels to the land of the Renegades to try and win the Xciters a territory, but more on that later. Usagi Tsukino will try and stand on her own in singles action against the deadly, vicious, and probable lesbian ICE! I mean honestly, I’m surprised it took me this long to notice! Later, we have Colby Roads taking on Jaden Yuki, after he cost the Dream Team the EBW Tag Team Championships last week. You know Bashin Dan will have something to say about that. Christina Angel, Cherry Akintola, Siren, and Makoto Kino will face off to see who will take on Erica for the EBW Women’s Championship. The main event will be an EBW Championship match! Rama Raju has accepted the challenge of CP Munk, who has promised to win, and allow his new friend Colby a shot so they can both FINISH! THE! STORY! It’s gonna be a hot night in the old town tonight…well not TONIGHT…but soon!

Ted Pettentool: On the Havok side of things, the Renegades are in Valentine to court the fans in Love’s Arena! It’ll be a big night that opens with a VIP Card Battle Royale. The Havok Boss is giving out cards with certain perks, and the winner will receive the perk, no questions asked.I gotta get me one of those! Cade Yaggis will take on Tanooki w00t! That’s a match I want to see, to see how w00t is doing back in the old suit! Former Women’s World Champion Wendy Mustang is poised to get a rematch with Paula, and they cemented their partnership with the Women’s World Tag Team Championships. She means to exact some payback on Darkness Aoi first though, and she’ll have to go through Mitra Lennox to get there. Picky Minch, the workhorse veteran is taking on Crono in a throwback to the EBW vs. CTW days. Mav Valentine of Xcite invades the Love’s Arena to claim the territory for Xcite, but Dougie Mach stands in the way. We hear he’s been getting some tough love from Rhea Rampage!

The Mach Farm

Out in the yard, Dougie was sweating as he did pushups, with the amazonian Rhea sitting on his back.

Dougie Mach: 25-26-26-26-26-

Rhea Rampage: Keep it steady, I’m trying to TikTak here! You stuck or something Doug Doug?

Dougie Mach: I c-c-c-can’t do anymore!

Rhea Rampage: You saying I’m too heavy!?

Dougie Mach: What?! N-No! I’m saying I’m a ginger, and the sun is out! I’m completely exposed to my natural enemy! Pure sunshine!

Rhea Rampage: Oh that’s real!? Where I come from, there was once this HUGE hole in the sky where the sun would not only beam on ya directly, buuuuut sometimes the sun would come down and directly attack you. It was easy to avoid cause of the swirling pattern but still-

Dougie Mach: DYING!

Rhea Rampage: Fine! Let’s get you inside. You owe me more pain and misery Doug Doug.

Dougie Mach: Oh y-y-yes my Dommie Mommy!

In the background, Trevor drove by on his tractor.

Trevor Mach: *from a distance* GET OFF MY PROPERTY!

Dougie Mach: What did he say?

Rhea Rampage: He said we should go check on Tali! Let’s go!

Dougie Mach: …Curse the sun!

-

Ted Pettentool: I’m sure he’s going to be firing on all cylinders when he takes on Mav Valentine for the Valentine territor- oh yeah Mav has home team advantage! Those place poppers are going to go NUTS for him! I mean seriously, you’d have to be a pretty despicable person to lose the place popper aura. Those people will clap like seals and screech like howler monkeys if you happen to reside anywhere near them. The main event will be a mega tag, as World Champion Trevor Mach and Television Champion Subculture will team up to take on Ness and Poo of Metal Militia. We were told by Poo that it will be all hands on deck for the Militia, so does that mean the two new mystery members will be there as well? Only one way to find out! Don’t miss Havok on ENT!
