Ted Pettentool: It's the Toolbox here, and it's GOTTA BE GOTTA BE EBW Wooooorld! We're fast approaching THE event of the year! The biggest show for the 19th time, and it's going to be an EXPLOSION of VICTORY on the coast of the Gulf of Eagleland! This proud nation deserves an event of this magnitude on its patriotic coast! I've been told several bald eagles will be let loose during the event. I'm joined right now, with THE hero of Eagleland. It's Eagleland's Champion, THE Eagleland Champion even! It's Tack Angel! 

Tack Angel: Great to be here Ted! You know, the Star Spangled Prince loves to travel the world, and do what I can to make it a better place, but Star Gazers, I've gotta tell you, there is something SPECIAL about the Gulf of Eagleland, and it's going to bring out the fire! The Red, the white, and the blue! All the stars will shine for the Star Spangled Prince, as Trevor and I, the Mega Dudes, the ultimate force for good will-

?: My nephew! Tack!

Tack Angel: Eh?



Tack Angel: Uncle Boristamus?!

Boristamus: Tack, I need to show you something strange and mystical! 

Tack Angel: What? No! No way Uncle Boristamus! I have other work to do! 

Boristamus: But don't you wish to travel with me beyond the realm to the Wall Dimension to rescue your father? 

Tack Angel: He's thrilled to be in the Wall Dimension! 

Boristamus: But what about a "Gel"venture? 

Tack Angel: Absolutely not! 

Boristamus: …I have a strange and ancient little tomb that-

Tack Angel: Not interested! I gotta go! The country needs a hero!

Boristamus: Wait! Come back! I have no many other weird things going on! 

Ted Pettentool: Huh…is that guy….gonna be a character now? Oh yeah, Xcite is heading to Edo to celebrate Victory Explosion eve….or something. Boristamus is still here. 

Boristamus: Do YOU want to see what I have in my cloak? 

Ted Pettentool: I'd really rather not. That's unlocking some childhood memories. Ah! Haha…*sigh*

The distant hum of the train quieted as it pulled into the Edo station, steam hissing from its sides as the doors slid open. Trevor Mach stepped onto the platform, his boots clicking against the worn wooden planks, and instinctively adjusted the collar of his leather jacket. A deep breath filled his lungs with the scent of pine, rain-kissed stone, and a faint trace of incense. Behind him, Tali Mach wheeled herself forward, the polished rims of her wheelchair glinting under the station’s lantern glow.

Edo.

A place of war. A place of peace. A place that had once been a battleground for Trevor, tangled in the territorial strife of factions that had long since dissolved into legend. But before the fights, before the blood on the soil, before the scars it left behind—there had been something else.
A hot spring.

A simple getaway, years ago, when he and Tali had first started traveling together. Before the world had become more complicated, before the weight of history pressed down on their shoulders. He glanced at her as they moved through the streets, the familiar cobbled paths leading them past aged shrines and traditional inns, their sliding doors still adorned with faded banners.

Tali Mach: You’re thinking about it, aren’t you?

Trevor Mach: You know me too well.

Tali Mach: Damn right I do. I remember this place. First time I ever saw you actually relax.

Trevor Mach: I relax.

Tali Mach: Uh-huh. You say that, but back then? You were like a stray dog who didn’t know how to sit still. I had to practically shove you into the water.

Trevor Mach: Yeah, and I nearly boiled alive. I swear that spring was searing hot! 

Tali Mach: That’s how you know it’s working. Besides, you didn’t seem to mind once I sat next to you.

Trevor Mach: Yeah… that part I didn’t mind.

The warm glow of the lantern-lit path guided them up the familiar hill, leading to the onsen that had once been their little escape from the world. It still stood, tucked between the towering cypress trees, steam drifting lazily into the cool night air. The soft sound of running water echoed between the stone walls, and the faint scent of mineral-rich steam carried on the wind.

Tali inhaled deeply, closing her eyes for a moment. 

Tali Mach: Smells the same.

Trevor took a step forward, then paused. His fingers curled into a fist at his side, then relaxed again. 

Trevor Mach: I was different back then. 

Tali Mach: So was I. We both were. But you know what hasn’t changed?

He looked down at her, waiting.

Tali Mach: The way you still make my heart full, Trevor.

Trevor exhaled slowly, kneeling in front of her so that they were eye to eye. His hand found hers, fingers lacing together, their warmth cutting through the chill of the night.

Trevor Mach: I could say the same. I could say a lot of things, but words don’t cover it. They never do. Not when it comes to you.

Tali let out a short laugh, shaking her head. 

Tali Mach: Damn it, Mach. You always find a way to say the most perfect thing in the least perfect way.

Trevor Mach: It’s a gift.

For a moment, the world around them faded—the battles fought, the hardships endured, the ghosts of Edo that once called for war. Right now, it was just them. Just the night, the warmth of the springs, and the memories they had yet to make.
They arrived at the inn, a rustic building tucked away in the hills. The innkeeper greeted them warmly, recognizing them from their previous visit.

Innkeeper: Welcome back, Mr. and Mrs. Mach. Your room is ready, and the hot springs are waiting.

As they settled into their room, Trevor noticed Tali's eyes lingering on the window overlooking the hot springs. He walked over, standing behind her, and placed his hands on her shoulders.

Trevor Mach: We should go down there. 

Tali leaned back against him, her body soft and inviting. 

Tali Mach: I want to, Trevor. But I can't. I can't do that sort of thing anymore.

He turned her to face him, his hands cupping her face. 

Trevor Mach: We can make it work, Tali. We always have, and we always will. I'll carry you if I have to.

A small smile played on her lips. 

Tali Mach: For once, I like the sound of that.

A dark, rain-soaked battlefield stretches as far as the eye can see. The distant glow of torches flickered through the mist, revealing the broken bodies of warriors scattered across the muddy ground. The air was thick with the metallic scent of blood. In the distance, a lone figure sat atop a massive black warhorse, the beast’s red eyes gleaming like embers in the night. The figure’s armor, adorned with jagged edges and cruel spikes, glistened with fresh crimson. He raised his head to the sky, the rain washing streaks of blood from his face. His laughter—deep, guttural, and full of malice—echoed like a death knell over the land.

Mysterious Man: Is this all? Is this the strength of the so-called innocent? You cower. You beg. You cling to your miserable little lives like rats in the dark... but you are nothing. You exist to be slaughtered, to serve as a reminder of your own weakness. Do you not see? Mercy is a lie. Kindness is a weakness. Power is the only truth in this world.

He gripped the hilt of his sword and yanked it from the ground, pointing it toward the survivors, who flinched and whimpered. His wicked grin widened as he took a step forward.

Mysterious Man: Squeal for me.

A single scream pierced the night before the screen faded to black. The only thing left was the sound of wicked, echoing laughter... the laughter of a man who lived for carnage. The name appeared in blood-red letters on the screen.

LUCA BLIGHT – COMING SOON

River City Gymnasium

Cade Yaggis was searching backstage, looking for Zyro Kurogane, hollering for the fellow Pillar, when he noticed Christy Angel, stretching and working out. He quickly shifted tracks and walked over to her. 

Cade Yaggis: Christy! Hey Christy! 

Christy Angel: Eep! Hey there uh handsome…looking for the restroom?

Cade Yaggis: Huh?

Christy Angel: I hear you piss really loud, and I think that's cool. 

Cade Yaggis: You heard that? 

Christy Angel: Uh…maybe? I'm sorry I'm a little out of sorts. 

Cade Yaggis: I would say so. What's going on with you and your sister? 

Christy Angel: Oh that whole thing? Nothing really. Not a big deal. I'm having an existential meltdown and I'm sick of living in the shadow of the path not taken, but really not a problem and I'm totally fine. *deep breath* 

Cade Yaggis: You just sort of lay it out there, don't you? 

Christy Angel: I have no filter. I like trains. See? 

Cade Yaggis: Uh-huh. 

Christy Angel: This is just something I need to do. I'm not turning on the fans, and I don't want to be someone you wouldn't want sitting on your face. 

Cade Yaggis: Pardon? 

Christy Angel: I said I would want you to be proud of me. 

Cade Yaggis: I'm proud of you no matter what, but I understand. You have to challenge yourself and see how far you can go against an idealized version of yourself. 

Christy Angel: You say it a lot better than I do. 

Cade Yaggis: I get it. I support you. Give it your all. 

Christy Angel: Thanks! I really appreciate it. I intend to, not just for me, but for my tag partner. Look, Alison is on more stuff than she was when her name was Wonderland, and that's saying something, but she's been there for me every step of the way. We're the Gamer Girlz. THAT is my team. Christina can do her own thing, and she'll have to realize that once I beat her. I'm putting in the effort. I actually stopped playing Fortnite for this. I'm taking it super seriously. I even got a personal trainer. 

Cade Yaggis: Oh yeah? 

Christy Angel: Here they come now!

Christy pointed to what looked like an old lady covered in a blanket.

?: *badly masked old woman voice* Gee, I hope no one tries to rob me, a little old lady!

 Suddenly, the person threw off the blanket to reveal a man with a ball cap, handlebar mustache, a poncho, and a fanny pack. He was also covered in nunchucks. 

?:  Psyche! I'm not a little old lady! It's Nunchuck Tyler! 

Cade Yaggis: Nunchuck Tyler?



Nunchuck Tyler: *flinging nunchucks* Yeah! Take that! Haha! Take this! ♫ Nunchuck Tyler, is here to save the day, with all of his nunchucks, and fury! Nunchuck Tyler, is using his nunchucks, is gonna take you out…like everyday. Nunchuck Tyler, is doing his nunchucks, yeah doing his nunchucks…uh…everyday! ♫

Cade Yaggis: …

Nunchuck Tyler: Woo! How many nunchucks does he have?! Whoa! Oooooh! He's got so many nunchucks! Yeahaha! 

Cade Yaggis: …He's helping you with what?

Christy Angel: Fitness? 

Cade Yaggis: I see. Don't uh…don't lose too much. 

Christy Angel: Huh?

Cade Yaggis: I uh…like the extra…stuff.

Christy Angel: ….OH!

Cade Yaggis: I'm not sure about this Nunchuck Tyler. 



Dr. Pin A. Colada: Hmmm…Nunchuck Tyler eh? He might be the ultimate weapon in my battle against the Kidney Stone abominations. *sips drink*

Ted Pettentool: The Tedster's here, and it's gotta be, gotta be, EBW WORLD! I'm joined by my apparent soulmate Alison Chains? I mean that's what she keeps saying. 

Alison Chains: You're never leaving me Ted. You're never leaving. If you go….we go together. 

Ted Pettentool: Yikes! I'm not going anywhere….honey? Cause….EBW needs me, and we have this amazing installment to get into. Why is it amazing? Because we're on the EVE of Victory Explosion 19, and I can't wait! The Gulf of Eagleland is going to witness the greatest event since 18, and until 20! It's going to be incredible. We have a FULL card, but I mean, let's just look back on what happened LAST YEAR for starters! We had a Battle Royale to start last year, which was won by Void….who was apparently Trevor Mach! That's good to know in retrospect. We had an Exploding Ring Death Match, where Hope won, but spared Ripper Jane, and led her back to a place of moderate sanity. She seems to be loyal to Hope at least. Ali baby, you want to cover the next pa-

Alison Chains: Zzzz…..Zzzz……

Ted Pettentool: Finally. She hadn't slept in two days. Zyro Kurogane retained the Television Championship in a thrilling 3-Way Match! We had a segment WITH Alison…where Christy Angel kind of sort of admitted to liking Cade Yaggis, and she's yet to follow up on that! Should I even be saying anything? I don't want to stick my neck into THAT situation. Firebrand X returned and battered poor Vape! Whatever happened to him? He seems to come and go as he pleases. He's been seen at some small shows in Edo. We reached out to his wife and to Arremer X, but they both seemed to share the sentiment that Firebrand X is gonna do what Firebrand X is gonna do. Now for this next part, we have another guest. It's the #1 Contender to the World Championship. It's Sal Paradise. 

Sal Paradise: That's right, be cool my babies, cause we're taking a trip to Paradise City, but first a little jaunt down nostalgia boulevard. Last year, LoveBoom! were the World Tag Team Champions. I overcame some personal issues, and recovered from some injuries, and I was back in action. I spent my time helping out a punk kid, cause I wanted to give something back, and I saw a lot of potential. We actually lost the titles at Victory Explosion 18. We lost them….to Hotlanta and Generator. I've beaten those two back to back, so I guess we saw that the kid was the weak link, which is to be expected. The young gun rookie was inexperienced compared to the rest of us. Now, that same punk kid thinks he's King of the World, Cock of Walk, and other euphemisms. To me, you're still a green boy, and I'm not done teaching you lessons just yet. I got a big one coming your way kid. The People's Choice is back, but the journey isn't complete until I have the World Championship around my waist once again. That's when the Perfect Skies above open up for Sal Paradise! 

Ted Pettentool: It's been a wild ride from 18 to 19 hasn't it? LoveBoom! EXPLODES in the Gulf of Eagleland! We also saw Mike Thunder end his career against Amigo. That worked out for Mike. Both he and his son are working for President Orange Man now, so that's a boost! Paula walked into last year's Victory Explosion AS champ, but now, she'll be going up against Heather Mach. Bashin Dan ended the lengthy and impressive reign of Rama Raju, and had a hell of a run until Colby Roads snaked his way to the title. Crono beat Trevor Mach in the Bushido Den, and that saw the arrival of Magus, which set off the lengthy war between Metal Rush factions that just ended a few months ago! Makoto Kino BECAME EBW Women's Champion last year. This year, she defends against Usagi Tsukino. A battle of the closest friends. I heard that Mamoru of the Dark Story was talking smack about Usagi, saying she didn't have a chance. Makoto caught wind of that. I wonder how that went down?



Ted Pettentool: Oh! That'll do it! Look at her sticking up for her friend! I didn't know heads could do that if you strangled hard enough! The show ended last year with Cade Yaggis becoming World Champion, and he had an incredible run as champ, just as Bashin Dan did. They both seemed poised to compete to become EBW's first Super Champion, BUT…like Colby did to Dan, Boomtown snaked his way into becoming World Champion. It's one year later, but make no mistake, the wounds from years prior are still fresh, and the titans of EBW, the Renegades and the Xciters,  are looking to up the ante, with a show you WON'T want to miss. Here's the final card. Feast your eyes, and we'll see you in the Gulf of Eagleland!

The sun rose hot and golden over the Gulf of Eagleland, the waves crashing rhythmically as the grand EBW banners flapped in the coastal breeze. Camera drones zipped across the shoreline, catching wide shots of the massive stadium built for only one purpose: VICTORY EXPLOSION 19. The biggest wrestling show of the year had finally arrived, and one by one, the stars made their entrance.

A massive ferry approached the dock, cutting through the waves. As it slowed to a halt, the ramp lowered, and out stepped Bashin Dan and Hope Mach. Dan was in his signature gear, duffle bag slung over his shoulder. He paused at the edge, taking in the roaring crowd gathered just to catch a glimpse of arriving superstars.

Bashin Dan: This is it. The stage doesn’t get bigger than Victory Explosion. Time to play my cards, and defy the odds.

He slapped the ramp with his hand, then jogged toward the arena, fans high-fiving him along the way.

In a gritty old muscle car, the kind that sounded like thunder when it rolled, Cade Yaggis pulled into the parking lot. He opened the door, stepping out in a ripped denim vest over a Havok T-shirt, teeth clenched around a toothpick.

Cade Yaggis: They call it 'The Grand Finale of Wrestling. To me? It's just Tuesday....or Sunday? I've lost track of time. Let’s get extreme. Time to pull the Trigger.

He tossed his bag over his shoulder and headed toward the locker rooms, cracking his knuckles.

A sleek private jet landed on a runway just off the coast. Out stepped Boomtown, dressed in an immaculate designer suit, shades reflecting the arena lights even from a distance. The World Championship sat on his shoulder like a crown jewel.

Boomtown: Victory Explosion belongs to me. Because I make moments. I am the main event. And Sal Paradise? He’s just a rerun.

As his entourage trailed behind, Boomtown strutted down the red carpet rolled out for him alone.

Meanwhile, a vintage convertible rumbled up the coastal highway. Sal Paradise sat behind the wheel, the wind blowing his hair back, his wrestling gear hidden beneath a classic cream-colored jacket. He pulled up to the gates, parked, and stepped out slowly.

Sal Paradise: I’ve seen 'em come and go. Boomtown? He’s got flash. But me? I’ve got the soul of this place. Tonight, I take it all back. Back to Paradise City!

He adjusted his shades and walked in.

In a stretch limo wrapped in the color scheme of the EBW Championship itself, Colby Roads exited while scrolling on his phone. He barely looked up at the crowd.

Colby Roads: Let’s not pretend this is hard. The gold stays with me. Dan Club? They’re good for ratings. But I'm the one they pay to see. Not them, and certainly not my father or brother. I'm the only one in my family that matters. Some call me a sociopathic nepobaby....so anyways, let's do this thing.

He held the title high for the photographers, smirking before turning his back to the fans.

On the back of a Harley, Wendy Mustang arrived like a storm. Her blonde hair whipped in the wind, leather jacket adorned with patches.

Wendy Mustang: Shoot and tarnation! Victory Explosion? I don’t just show up—I show off. Let’s raise hell, one LARIAT-O at a time! Yeehaw!

She pointed toward the stadium.

Wendy Mustang: See you in the ring, girls!

Descending from a helicopter that hovered above the entranceway, Christina Angel landed in spectacular fashion with the help of a harness, jacket billowing behind her. She unhooked and winked at the camera. 

Christina Angel: Victory Explosion has always been a place for legends. Christy, tonight you stand among titans. Don't choke. When it's over, I hope you can live with it. Oh the helicopter? I have no idea where it came from. Neat though, right?

Arriving on the former Angel Express, now renamed the MEGA Express, Makoto Kino stepped off the bus with the EBW Women's Championship in hand. 

Makoto Kino: Power. Honor. Victory Explosion. I’ll carry that weight—and anyone who steps to me. Usagi, it's the honor of honors that we get to compete at Victory Explosion. I'm so excited for this. Truth be told, I always wondered, how will I stand up against my Queen? How will I step up against destiny itself?

With a calm but confident smile, she walked toward her destiny.

In contrast, Usagi Tsukino bounded off the bus, holding an ice cream cone and giggling with fans. She was in full gear, sparkles trailing as she spun around.

Usagi Tsukino: Makoto, in the name of the moon...and in my own name...I WILL become the EBW Women's Champion!

Her eyes sparkled with determination as she walked past the stadium gates, the wind catching her skirt perfectly, forcing her to quickly hold it down. 

Rollerblading down the boardwalk, Grind slid to a stop in front of the media.

Grind: Victory Explosion, baby. The champ's talented, and I know what Switchback can do, but I feel like it's the JET SETTER'S time to shine once again!

He high-fived a kid and rolled into the crowd.

Zyro Kurogane and the rest of Team Samurai strolled right onto the boardwalk, like a scene from Cromartie High. 

Zyro Kurogane: I've got the mouth, I'm in the south, and when it comes to guts, I've got scouth. Scouth…means plenty. 

Mav Valentine: *closing a thesaurus* Yeah, that checks out. 

Zyro Kurogane: YES! Storytime with Zyro-K BEY-BEEEY! The Pillars are going to throw down tonight, and the dub is going to the GOAT. Plain and simple! Shogun Steel and Sex Appeal is gonna LET IT RIP, THROW IT DOWN, AND WIN THE THING! BEY-BEEEEEY!

Emerging from a small boat, Rama Raju and Komaram Bheem stood tall on the bow, arms raised in salute to the crowd. They leapt to the dock and planted their spears into the ground.

Rama Raju: We will RISE! We will ROAR! We will REVOLT! We will remain the EBW Tag Team Champions at Victory Explosion!

They walked up the ramp, fire dancers lighting their path.

Finally, a black-and-chrome classic Mustang tore through the backstage gate. Trevor Mach was behind the wheel, leather jacket flapping in the wind. Tack Angel rode shotgun, waving the Eagleland flag out the window. 

They parked sideways, smoke pouring from the tires.

Trevor Mach: You smell that, Tack?" 

Tack Angel: It’s the scent of burnt rubber.

Trevor Mach: It's the smell of destiny!

Tack Angel: Oh right! Destiny and EAGLELAND! 

Trevor Mach: We're storming the beach! We're taking the fight to RRR, and we're walking OUT the EBW Tag Team Champions! 

Tack Angel: Just that simple Star Gazers! We've got the power of God and Eagleland on our side! Let's make history once again! 

Trevor Mach: Let's kick the tires and light the fires, big daddy!

Tack Angel: MEGA DUDES-

Trevor Mach: NEVER DIE! BOOSH!

They fist-bumped, grabbed their bags, and walked into the stadium side-by-side like rockstars ready to bring the house down.

-

President Orange Man: Wow. Wow, folks. Look at this crowd. Look at it! This might be—no, let me tell you—it IS the biggest wrestling event in the history of wrestling, okay? Victory Explosion 19! That’s right. We’re not talking about some little bingo hall match. We’re not talking about a bunch of guys flipping around in a gymnasium, no no. This is big league. This is HUGE. The biggest. And it’s happening right here in our great, very great country—Eagleland! You’ve got the best wrestlers. The strongest. The toughest. The most unbelievable athletes you've ever seen. You’ve got Colby Roads, great guy—real champion material, unless he loses, then we’ll look into it. You’ve got Bashin Dan—what a name. What a name. And Boomtown! He’s got more to say than a teleprompter at a fake news debate. He’s YUGE, folks. You’ve got Makoto Kino, you’ve got Usagi Tsukino, you’ve got Trevor Mach—the man’s like if John Wick had a brother who only knees and suplexes people. Incredible. You’ve got Tack Angel, who told me personally, he said, 'Mr. President, this is going to be the greatest show of all time.' And I said, 'Tack, it already is.' And folks, I’m not just here as your very successful, very handsome, very humble President—some people say the most humble, I don’t know, I don’t say that—but I’m here as a fan. I love this. I love wrestling. I body slammed inflation. I will pile-drive recession. And tonight—we’re all going to watch these heroes do what they do best: put on a show that nobody, and I mean NOBODY, will ever forget! Tonight... we make wrestling great again! And I, your President, hereby officially commence—the most explosive, most electric, most unbelievable event in wrestling history... VICTORY EXPLOSION 19!!!

-

Tommy Dukes: Well, it doesn't get any more official than that! Pitter patter, let's get at 'er! It's game time! We have back to back Battle Royales. The opening act! The big warm up! Let's take it to the ring!

0. Victory Explosion 19 Women's Battle Royale: Cherry Akintola vs. Val Dorado vs. Rei Hino vs. Gianna Rambaldi vs. Hilda Iceheart vs. Ami Mizuno vs. Erica vs. Minako Aino vs. Faris Kain vs. Alison Chains vs. Hope Mach vs. Wendy Mustang vs. Cheerleader Jenny vs. Lainey Strong vs. Mitra Lennox vs. Darkness Aoi vs. Yaten Kou vs. Taiki Kou vs. Queen Beryl
-The arena transformed into a coliseum of chaos as the women’s battle royale erupted. When the bell rang, the roar of the crowd filled the Gulf of Eagleland Coast with electricity. Nineteen competitors stepped into the ring, each determined to survive until the final elimination.

The action exploded early as fighters clashed in every corner. Cherry Akintola unleashed a flurry of strikes on Minako Aino until Rei Hino intercepted with a swift spin kick. Gianna Rambaldi and Hilda Iceheart exchanged fierce blows near the center, while Ami Mizuno darted around like a whirlwind, her movements a blur. Erica and Faris Kain locked in a titanic struggle, trading heavy slams that rattled the ring. Minako got eliminated, and then a few minutes later, the "mysterious" Sailor V ran out to get involved, but she too was eliminated. 

As the match progressed, temporary alliances formed and dissolved in an instant. Wendy Mustang bulldozed her way through a group of opponents until she became isolated. Cheerleader Jenny and Lainey Strong teamed up briefly to fend off Darkness Aoi and Mitra Lennox. Throughout it all, Queen Beryl maintained an ominous presence, quietly letting the chaos favor her calculated plan.

When the field shrank to the final five, Queen Beryl methodically targeted each remaining fighter. In a masterful display of deception and ruthlessness, she eliminated competitor after competitor with precision strikes, submission holds, and high-flying maneuvers. In the climactic moment, after Wendy Mustang valiantly resisted until exhaustion, Queen Beryl delivered a thumb to the eye and tossed her over the top. Queen Beryl captured the win, giving the Dark Story the first victory of Victory Explosion. 
Winner: Queen Beryl by last eliminating Wendy Mustang 

Nerma: Whoa! Queen Beryl snuck a victory there, and the EBW Women's Tag Team Champion and FORMER EBW Women's Champion has won the Victory Explosion Battle Royale! 

Boss M's: Heh, that's an Xcite win, and I'll take it. 

Nerma: Yeah?

Boss M's: Just think about what that sets up going forward. I'm all about high tension chaos. Just look at my home life. Wakka wakka! 

Nerma: …

Boss M's: You should laugh.

Nerma: You're not MY Boss! 

Boss M's: Yeah, but I'm sitting next to you…and I'm me. 

Nerma: Oh yeah….HAHAHAHA! 

Boss M's: That's much better. 

Tommy Dukes: Well, we go from one Battle Royale to the other! The male Xciters and Renegades are up next. That ring is going to fill up, and we're going to see just whomst've emerges the victor. This will ALSO be the debut of the cold and calculating Luca Blight. His reputation precedes him. A lot of eyes are focused on this bout. Here he comes now and….oh my…I don't think anyone has struck fear into me like this before. My hair is falling out. 

Apple Kid: You don't have any hair. 

Tommy Dukes: I forgot, that's how freaked out I am! 
 
0. Victory Explosion 19 Men's Battle Royale: Yami Yugi vs. Ness vs. Matt vs. Tai vs. Carter Grayson vs. Amigo vs. Flying Man vs. Fray Tiburon vs. Fighter Daron vs. Hotlanta vs. Dougie Mach vs. Generator vs. LG Rod vs. Jaden Yuki vs. Randy no Kachi vs. Snakebite vs. Seiya Kou vs. Troy vs. CP Munk vs. Mamoru Chiba vs. Mav Valentine vs. Seto Kaiba vs. Luca Blight[Debut] 
-The men’s battle royale unfolded as an epic free-for-all. Twenty plus warriors, ranging from seasoned veterans like Ness to hungry upstarts such as Yami Yugi, Matt, and Tai. The ferocious Luca Blight in his debut, stormed into the ring with raw intensity. As soon as the bell rang, bodies collided in a furious storm of strikes, slams, and high-risk aerial maneuvers.

Yami Yugi opened the contest with quick jabs and mystical card poses that sent confusion through the audience. Ness responded with a veteran presence that left some opponents dazed. In the early minutes, Fighter Daron ducked under Hotlanta’s lunge and delivered a brutal clothesline as Hotlanta tried to catch his breath in shock against the heat vaccum, while LG Rod and Jaden Yuki locked in an intense grappling contest. Randy no Kachi executed a flawless dropkick that knocked Snakebite off balance.

The brawls spilled from the ring onto the ropes and apron. Then, Luca Blight made his presence felt. With raw menace, Luca dismantled his opposition methodically. In a pivotal moment, he targeted Ness, deadlifting him and tossing him out of the ring last to shockingly win his debut match at Victory Explosion. 
Winner: Luca Blight by last eliminating Ness 



Tommy Dukes: And he wins it! Luca Blight just eliminated Ness! The "Mad Prince" just threw out the EBW OG! He ran through that Battle Royale like a man possessed with rage and blood lust, and-

Boss M's: I want him on Xcite! 

Tommy Dukes: What?! 

Nerma: Isn't he with Havok?

Larry Grim: He's not signed to a brand yet. 

Nerma: WHAT?! Why don't we have him?! 

Tommy Dukes: Do we want him? 

Nerma: YES! 

Boss M's: TOO LATE! DIBS! I CALLED DIBS! RESPECT THE DIBS! LITTLE MAC, YOU'D BETTER RESPECT THE DIBS!

Tommy Dukes: One thing you have to respect…well three things actually…are the Pillars that are going to kick things off properly here. A 3-Way Pillars Battle. The winner will definitely be at the top of the heap, but this is more for pride. Let's see who the top Pillar is…for now.

1. Havok - 3-Way Pillars Battle: Cade Yaggis vs. Subculture vs. Zyro Kurogane
-The Havok Pillars, three elite competitors squared off with one goal: to prove their worth and jump ahead of the pack. Cade Yaggis exuded confidence, Subculture relied on a laid-back yet lethal style, and Zyro Kurogane brought raw athleticism and a swagger into the ring.

Right from the opening bell, the match mixed technical grappling with explosive strikes. Cade initiated with a series of slicing kicks aimed at Subculture’s midsection, forcing his opponent on the defensive. Subculture countered by slamming Cade into the turnbuckle and then diving for a headbutt. Zyro, waiting on the other side of the ring, seized his moment with a breathtaking aerial assault.

As the match intensified, Zyro took command. Blending speed with power, he executed his signature move—the Straight Jacket Hagen—on a dazed Subculture. The technique, combining technical precision and devastating force, left Subculture crashing to the mat. Cade Yaggis tried to get back into the ring to break the pin, but Amigo appeared from out of the crowd and smashed Cade to the floor with a Hagen Suplex. Zyro quickly exploited the opening with a pin to score the victory. 
Winner: Zyro Kurogane via Straight Jacket Hagen on Subculture -> Pin

Tommy Dukes: Zyro-K with the win! What was Amigo doing out there! He's laughing through his mouth guard, but why did he attack Cade?! That took him out of the finish, which saw Zyro Kurogane narrowly pinning Subbie! Shogun Steel and Sex Appeal is the winner! What a match! 

Larry Grim: Indeed it was, but we have our own big match to start things off. It's a Big MONEY Match in fact. 

Boss M's: I like this Neon Valkyrie. She's willing to put her money where her mouth is. She pinned Tracy already and I thought that was hilarious, but this will hit her where it hurts. Right in the ill gotten gains. Better step up Trace!
 
2. Xcite - Women's Singles "Big Money Match": Tracy vs. Astrid Rúnsdóttir
-Under pulsating lights and the weight of high stakes, the Women's Singles "Big Money Match" ignited a fierce confrontation between the pious and self righteous, Tracy, and the determined, newcomer "Neon Valkyrie" Astrid Rúnsdóttir. Both competitors knew that victory would not only bring prestige but also a significant payday.

From the moment the bell rang, Tracy employed a sly, underhanded approach. Circling like a vulture, she waited for an opening while Astrid charged forward with dynamic strikes—jab combinations, high knees, and a dazzling spinning backkick that momentarily stunned Tracy. Yet, Tracy quickly recovered, and in a cunning act, she produced a hidden object from beneath the ropes, a cross. Seizing the opportunity during a brief pause when Astrid recovered from a heavy clothesline, Tracy struck with the cross, and then hit an explosive Crucifix Powerbomb. The impact proved too much, and the referee counted a swift three. Tracy quickly pocketed the cross and celebrated her win, demanding Astrid's cash, and "promising" to put it to good use. 
Winner: Tracy via Crucifix Powerbomb -> Pin 

Boss M's: Oh goody! Tracy won! GOOD FOR YOOOOU! *sigh*

Apple Kid: Astrid suffers her first singles loss on the big stage, thanks in no small part to Tracy's divine intervention! 

Boss M's: BULLSHIT! Gah! That's a lesson for the Neon Valkyrie. Never underestimate that shrewd bitch Tracy! 

Nerma: Speaking of shrewd bitches, Heather Mach has found a lot of recent success as Women's World Champion, a feat that was mostly elusive to her in her career until she decided to take a walk on the dark side. Paula is on a redemption road herself, having won Rumble City, she's now going to try and nab that World Championship from Judas Wolf. 

Tommy Dukes: Our first title match of the night, but certainly not the last. Let's take it to the ring!

3. Havok - Women's World Championship: Heather Mach(c) vs. Paula
-The Women’s World Championship match pitted the reigning champion, "Judas Wolf" Heather Mach, against the resolute challenger, former champ, and Rumble City winner Paula. The atmosphere brimmed with tension, and every eye in the arena focused on these two titans.

The contest began with a display of technical prowess. Heather advanced with a series of sharp strikes—jab combinations, low kicks, and a signature forearm smash that rattled Paula early on. Heather was all smiles, and mocked her opponent relentlessly. Yet Paula proved to be a resilient adversary, countering with reversals that included a lightning-fast arm drag and a swift escape from a submission hold into one of her own. Using her superior submission skills, she worked over the champ, and put a little humility into her. The smile was gone, and she was far more serious. 

As the bout progressed, Heather unleashed her full arsenal. A brutal bucklebomb, followed by a swift Hagen suplex and a ruthless elbow drop, drove Paula to the mat. Just when it appeared Heather might secure the win, Paula fought back fiercely with a dropkick that nearly stunned the champion. She trapped her in the Sharpshooter, and Heather immediately began to claw, scratch, and struggle to get to the ropes. It was quite the effort, but the Wolf made it to the ropes. 

In the final minutes, with both competitors exhausted but unyielding, Heather summoned every ounce of her experience. She launched into her with the Machbuster with bone-crushing force. Heather rolled Paula up and as the referee’s count reached three, sealing Heather’s successful defense of the title.
Winner: Heather Mach via Machbuster -> Pin -> Title Defense! 

Tommy Dukes: Heather Mach with the win?! She won!? 

Nerma: Paula's quest to regain the World Championship was denied! "Judas Wolf" Heather Mach is STILL the Women's World Champion. Incredible. 

Apple Kid: Don't forget that the EBW Women's Championship is still on the line later in the show, BUT next up, we have an absolute dream match. A first time ever tag team war for the EBW Tag Team Championships! Rama Raju had an amazing year as EBW Champion, and THEN his best friend Komaram Bheen arrived to really set the tag division on fire. On the other side are the challengers, the MEGA DUDES! This is going to be one for the ages everyone. Buckle up! 

Boss M's: You're welcome for this one! I'd rest on my laurels and kick my feet up, but I CAN'T! 

Lucca: I can put them up for you, sir. 

Boss M's: Put 'em down!

Larry Grim: Here we go, Xciters. Here. We. Go.




The lights in the Gulf of Eagleland Arena went pitch black. A hush fell over the massive crowd, save for the scattered chants of "ME-GA DUDES!" echoing from the rafters.

Suddenly, an electric guitar riff shredded through the silence, and the giant video screen above the stage lit up with pulsing neon letters:

The curtain burst open in a blast of fireworks, and out marched the Mega Dudes—a collision of retro flair and raw power.

First through the smoke came the "Star Spangled Prince" Tack Angel, a mountain of muscle, hair, and Eagleland pride. His thick, black beard shimmered with sweat and patriotism under the arena lights, and his red, white, and blue tights looked like they were struggling to contain the force of nature they encased. He stomped to the edge of the stage and flexed, roaring into the crowd like a beast awakened from slumber.

Right behind him swaggered Trevor Mach, the "Wild Wolf" of the team. He wore a bomber jacket over an iconic "MEGA DUDES" T-shirt, black shades hiding eyes that burned with confidence. He pointed a finger gun at the camera and mouthed, “Let’s get HYPED,” before high-fiving fans on the way down.

The crowd erupted into a deafening pop as the two men hit the ring with synchronized fist bumps and turnbuckle poses. Pyro cannons blasted red and blue sparks behind them.




Suddenly, the arena lights changed hue, casting a golden glow over the ring.

BOOM!

The champions' music hit—a pulse-pounding mix of orchestral fire—and Rama Raju and Komaram Bheem stepped out like titans molded from myth.

Raju’s eyes scanned the ring with calm fury, while Bheem cracked his neck and pounded his chest, his glare fixed on the incoming challengers. The EBW Tag Team Championships shimmered on their waists like trophies of war.

The two warriors stormed down the ramp with rising fire and pure presence. They climbed into the ring, never breaking eye contact with the Mega Dudes.

4. Xcite - EBW Tag Team Championships: Rama Raju(c)/Komaram Bheem(c) vs. Trevor Mach/Tack Angel
-The atmosphere buzzed with anticipation as the defending champions, Rama Raju and Komaram Bheem, walked to the ring, their bond as brothers in battle evident in their fierce determination. Across from them stood the mighty power of Eagleland. The might of the RED, WHITE, and BLUE! Trevor Mach and Tack Angel, The Mega Dudes, seeking to add another accolade to their legendary careers.

The opening minutes saw Raju and Tack exchange lightning-fast holds, a technical masterclass that had the crowd on the edge of their seats. Tack showed his veteran instincts, countering a snapmare into a hammerlock, while Raju reversed with a cartwheel into an arm drag. The two stood at a stalemate, and the audience roared their approval. Tack laid in KICK after KICK after KICK, but Raju was eating them and demanding more. Tack felt the Stargazer and the power of Eagleland pushing him on. 

As the match progressed, the champions utilized their seamless teamwork, frequently cutting the ring in half and isolating Tack. Bheem, a powerhouse, launched Tack with a brutal overhead belly-to-belly suplex, nearly securing the first fall. The champions continued their onslaught with a double suplex, followed by a springboard senton from Raju, forcing Trevor to break up the pin.

Tack fought back, countering a running knee strike from Raju into a rolling Hagen suplex, crawling toward his corner as Trevor stretched out his hand. Just as Tack leaped for the tag, Bheem charged in and yanked Trevor off the apron, sending him crashing into the barricade.

Raju attempted to capitalize, lifting Tack for a Blue Thunder Bomb, but Tack countered in mid-air, twisting and spiking him with a DDT! Both men lay sprawled out on the mat. With every ounce of energy, Tack lunged for the hot tag—and Trevor stormed into the ring like a man possessed.

Mach cleaned house, dropping Raju with a discus lariat before sending Bheem tumbling to the outside with a stiff Yakuza Kick. He followed up with a flying forearm smash, colliding with Bheem and taking both men down in a heap.

Back in the ring, Tack and Raju continued their battle, Tack hoisting Raju onto the top rope for a superplex attempt. Raju fought back, sending Tack crashing to the mat, but as he leaped for a diving crossbody, Trevor appeared out of nowhere with a mid-air jumping cutter! The crowd erupted as Mach covered—1! 2! Bheem barely broke it up!

The match reached a fever pitch. Raju and Bheem hit a finisher, the Amar Chitralekha Driver, a devastating double-team brainbuster on Tack, but somehow he kicked out at 2.9! The fans couldn’t believe it.

Mach re-entered, dodging a lariat from Bheem before delivering a stiff knee strike to the jaw. Trevor and Raju finally traded blows in the center of the ring, continuing a rivalry that stemmed from the draw that created the brand split to begin with. A match result that resonated so much, both men wanted to settle the score and answer the question of who truly won. Trevor could've continued the war with Raju on his own, but The Mega Dudes fight together, and he brought in Tack for the one and only MEGA FINISH! The Burning Hammer and the Knee Trigger to Raju kept him down, as the big beefy boy Tack Angel dove out onto Bheem. 1-2-3! The crowd went wild, as fireworks went off into the air. Fighter jets flew overhead as Trevor and Tack celebrated as the NEW EBW Tag Team Champions!
Winners: Trevor Mach[o]/Tack Angel via The MEGA Finish on Rama Raju -> Pin -> NEW EBW Tag Team Champions! 

Larry Grim: NEW EBW TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS! 

Apple Kid: They did it! 

Boss M's: That's what I'm talking about! That's the Xcite attitude! Very nice! 

Larry Grim: The Mega Dudes are the EBW Tag Team Champions, Tack and Trevor holding the tag gold once again! Various points in their careers they have been tag champs, but I don't think they're ever been a stronger team than they are now. A clear focus and teamwork brought them through the war to settle the score, and now we know! 

Boss M's: Trevor and Tack are helping up the RRR team and shaking hands. Sportsmanship in the face of all that conflict. It doesn't get any better than this. 

Lucca: Sir, Minky Momo is on the way with your nachos. 

Boss M's: …Correction…it just got better. 

Larry Grim: How DO you top that? 

Tommy Dukes: Hard to say, but we're not done. We're halfway there and living on a prayer! Next up, our Renegades of Havok are taking on the Xciters of Xcite. Specifically, it's going to be Team Samurai taking on the Weekend Wrecking Crew. Let's check a look! 

5. Havok vs. Xcite: Dragon Shiryu/Takumi Inui/Jackson Kain vs. Geoff Garrett/Magnum PT/Point Man 
-In a rare inter-brand clash, Havok’s Team Samurai confronted Xcite’s Weekend Wrecking Crew in a tag team match that pitted pride against pride. Representing Havok, World Tag Team Champion Dragon Shiryu, Television Champion Takumi Inui, and Jackson Kain entered with quiet confidence. On the opposing side, Geoff Garrett, Magnum PT, and Point Man donned the Red, White, and Blue, determined to assert their brand’s supremacy and showcase their love for Eagleland.

The match opened with technical brilliance. Dragon Shiryu locked up with Geoff Garrett, displaying swift counters and precise strikes. Takumi Inui followed by tagging in, dazzling the audience with a series of high-impact strikes followed by a flick of the wrist. Jackson Kain then unleashed his explosive power with the devastating Shadow Kick for a nearfall.

As the bout reached its peak, both teams traded rapid tags and intricate sequences. The ever reliable Point Man focused his efforts on isolating Jackson Kain with vicious strikes, yet Kain retaliated with a powerful counter that sent Point Man reeling. In a dramatic moment, Takumi Inui soared off the top rope for a corkscrew dive onto Magnum PT, leaving him stunned. Then, Jackson Kain executed the Shadow Kick on Point Man—a breathtaking display of agility and force. Kain and Shiryu fought off Double G and Magnum PT as Takumi hit the Crimson Smasher on Point Man for the pin and the win for Team Samurai and for Havok.
Winners: Dragon Shiryu/Takumi Inui[o]/Jackson Kain via Crimson Smasher on Point Man -> Pin 

Nerma: YES! IN YOUR FACE XCITE! *clears throat* Sorry…sorry I'm not sorry. 

Apple Kid: Right. 

Larry Grim: Impressive match no matter who wo-

Boss M's: Don't even try to placate them Larry!

Larry Grim: Just moving the show along Boss. Why? Because up next, we have the CXJ Championship match, with special referee Refiroth! 

Apple Kid: A special attraction match with our highflying superstars! 

Johnny Starbound: But you know what it's missing?! Your ACTUAL superstar Johnny Starbound! 

Boss M's: ..*sigh* Did you bring me popcorn?

Johnny Starbound: What? No. 

Boss M's: Then GET OUT OF HERE! 

Johnny Starbound: But I'm not booked! This isn't fair! 

Boss M's: Bitch to someone who cares Johnny! You're not the champ! Maseo Kurenai has shown more in much less time than you. That's why he's champ, and that's why he's in there with two trend setters. Two JET SETTERS. *sigh* I'm never doing that again. You think you deserve to be here? OH GOOD FOR YOU! TAKE A HIKE!

Johnny Starbound: THIS ISN'T OVER! 

Boss M's: I don't caaaaaare! Leave! 

Apple Kid: Well then, there he goes…and here WE go, as it's time for the CXJ Championship match. Let's do it to it!

6. Xcite - CXJ Championship: Maseo Kurenai(c) vs. Grind vs. Switchback Special Referee: Refiroth
-Next up, the CXJ Championship match unfolded as one of the most intense battles of the night. Maseo Kurenai, the calm and focused young champion, faced relentless challenger Grind and his arch rival Switchback. Two titans of the Luchablading scene, and the son of the Anahauc legend Kiva. Oversight came from the enigmatic Refiroth, whose mere presence enforced discipline.

The moment the bell rang, Switchback slid out of the ring, smirking as he left Maseo and Grind to start the bout. The two respectful competitors exchanged a handshake before locking up, but the technical wrestling didn’t last long. Grind, with his incredible lucha skills, transitioned from a collar-and-elbow tie-up into a slick armdrag, followed by a lightning-quick handspring back elbow. Maseo responded by kipping up instantly, launching himself into a hurricanrana that sent Grind sprawling.

Switchback chose that moment to strike, springboarding into the ring with a double dropkick that sent both men to the canvas. Smugly dusting off his hands, he targeted Maseo, looking for a quick end with a Tilt-a-Whirl Backbreaker, but the champion twisted mid-air, countering into a tilt-a-whirl DDT! The crowd exploded as Maseo leapt to his feet, only for Grind to catch him with a headscissors takedown. Maseo rolled through, showing off his athleticism with a back handspring before landing on his feet. Grind charged, but Maseo backflipped over him, landing a precise dropkick that sent Grind to the apron.

Switchback recovered, catching Maseo from behind and throwing him out of the ring, then turned his attention to Grind, who was still on the apron. In a moment of brilliance, Switchback ran toward the corner, leaped onto the second rope, then sprang back into a perfect Anahauc Fly from the apron to the outside! The audience erupted as all three men lay sprawled on the floor. Refiroth, with a cold and silent lift of his hand began a count, but the combatants slowly climbed back to their feet.

Grind recovered first, rolling Switchback back into the ring and hitting a rolling thunder senton before transitioning into a standing moonsault. Maseo, however, returned to the action in spectacular fashion, springboarding off the ropes with a corkscrew crossbody that flattened both men. With momentum on his side, Maseo signaled to the crowd and pulled Switchback to his feet, whipping him into the corner. Charging forward, Maseo hit a handspring elbow, then lifted Switchback onto the top rope. He climbed up, looking for a super hurricanrana—but Grind wasn’t about to be left out.

With insane speed, Grind sprinted to the corner, jumped onto the second rope, and executed a breathtaking Tower of Doom, powerbombing Maseo while Maseo simultaneously hit a hurricanrana on Switchback! The three competitors crashed to the mat, the crowd on their feet in stunned amazement.

As the match reached its peak, Maseo and Grind exchanged rapid strikes in the center of the ring, forearms flying as the audience roared. Maseo ducked a clothesline and countered with a springboard cutter, then ascended to the top rope. He measured his target and launched into the Kiva Dive that connected cleanly on Switchback. The special referee dropped down for the count—1! 2! 3!
Winner: Maseo Kurenai via Kiva Dive on Switchback -> Pin -> Title Defense! 

Apple Kid: Incredible! Maseo Kurenai with the win! 

Boss M's: I knew that kid had potential! 

Larry Grim: The young champ survived the rivalry between Grind and Switchback and retained the title. Grind is shocked at how quick Kurenai picked up on the opportunity. The celebrating Maseo is dancing in the middle of the ring. He's really letting loose too. Look at him go! 

Apple Kid: Look out! Here comes Johnny Starbound! 

Larry Grim: Grind is blocking his path! He's fighting off Starbound and sending him and Switchback packing. Now he's raising Maseo's hand up in a show of respect. Everyone's favorite Luchablader is taking the loss with dignity, but I'd love to see him get another shot at Maseo. 

Boss M's: I can arrange that. 

Nerma: Next, up us Renegades have a familial conflict to settle. Christy Angel is ready to escape the shadow of her legendary sister Christina Angel. She made it clear, she doesn't want to team with her, and doesn't want their careers compared or associated. It's almost impossible NOT to do that, but she has a chance to outshine her tonight. It's Christy vs. Christina Angel, coming up next!

Backstage

 

Christina Angel walked down the hall after talking to Hope and fist bumping. She gave a hesitant nod to Ripper Jane as well. She could see Erica snickering off to the side. Christina seemingly felt like reminding her of the gauntlet she ran to knock her off her pedestal, but realized that any distractions could cost her against her own sister. She turned away and made her way towards the ring. 

Gamer Girlz Room

Alison Chains was filming herself in front of a passed out Lindy Moseby. 

Alison Chains: Ya know, people wonder why I drink so much. Well, the answer is quite simple. The reason is, I haven't had a drink today, and I really really want one, and no, butt chugging doesn't count! That was this morning! I just- oh hey Christy, where are you going? 

Christy Angel: *stretching* It's time. I have to go face my sister now. 

Alison Chains: How you two kept your secret for so long is incredible! 

Christy Angel: No secret Alison. We're sisters, and we've been sisters. We'll always be sisters, but tonight I step out of her shadow. 

Alison Chains: Which one is the evil doppelganger? 

Christy Angel: I'll just be on my way. 

Alison Chains: Hey Christy?

Christy Angel: Yeah?

Alison Chains: You chose me…over her. I don't remember much…but I will remember that. 

Christy Angel: ….Heh. Of course I did. We're Gamer Girlz.

Christy walked out of the locker room and bumped into a bruised and bloody Cade Yaggis. 

Christy Angel: Oh! OH! Cade?! What are you doing here? You're all bruised up. You should do that to me. Did I just say that out loud!? Haha! That's weird right? Why would I say that? 

Cade Yaggis: The night didn't go like I planned. Obviously. Stark contrast from a year ago, and I really want to have a talk with Amigo, but first, I decided something else. 

Christy Angel: Yeah? 

Cade Yaggis: In life we can take our wins and losses, and let them dictate who we are, OR….we can decide what they mean in our lives. Bashin Dan taught me to learn from your losses and come back stronger, and I intend to. That's in ring matters though. I have no intention of letting the loss ruin this night. Instead, I'm going to end my night on a high note.

Christy Angel: How are you going to-

Cade Yaggis leaned in and kissed Christy. Christy was shocked for half a second, before she jumped up and wrapped her legs around Cade. He went wide eyed as she shoved her tongue down his throat. As quickly as she started grinding on him, she jumped down, realized what she had just done, and ran off, leaving Cade stunned, but seemingly pleased. 

7. Havok - Lady Renegades Singles: Christina Angel vs. Christy Angel 
-Christina and Christy Angel stood in opposite corners, the tension thick as the bell rang. The Angel Sisters circled each other cautiously before locking up in the center of the ring. Christina took the early advantage with a deep arm drag, but Christy kipped up immediately, showing she wasn’t going to be outmatched easily. The crowd buzzed as the sisters exchanged holds, each countering the other with expert precision.

Christina wrestled conservatively at first, keeping Christy grounded with side headlocks and wrist control, but Christy used her speed and agility to break free, flipping out of a hammerlock and countering into a deep armdrag of her own. The two stared each other down after another sequence of reversals, both rising to their feet at the same time. 

Christina initiated a test of strength, but Christy used leverage to slip under and roll her sister up for a quick two-count. Christina responded with a drop toehold, smoothly transitioning into a front facelock. Christy struggled to her feet, pushing her sister into the ropes, and after a Celtic whip, ducked under a clothesline and responded with a picture-perfect spinning heel kick. She covered, but Christina kicked out at two.

The match escalated as Christy began targeting Christina’s leg, softening it up with quick kicks and a dragon screw. She attempted to lock in a sharpshooter, but Christina powered out and sent Christy into the turnbuckle. She followed up with a hard forearm and hoisted Christy onto the top rope, looking for a superplex. Christy fought back, knocking Christina to the mat and diving off for a missile dropkick. The impact sent Christina rolling out of the ring to regain her composure.

Christy went for a baseball slide, but Christina sidestepped it, catching her with a sudden Hagen suplex on the outside floor. She rolled Christy back into the ring and covered—one, two, but no! Christy refused to stay down. Christina remained focused, lifting her sister up for a backbreaker, followed by a bridging suplex for another near fall.

The crowd roared as the pace quickened. Christy countered a whip into the corner, running up the turnbuckles for a moonsault press. Christina barely kicked out at two. Christy then attempted a victory roll, but Christina shifted her weight and pinned her shoulders down for a razor-close count. The audience gasped as the sisters exchanged near-falls, neither willing to give an inch.

Christina attempted her signature Angel Wings, but Christy reversed it into a backslide for a shocking two-count. Christina, stunned, hesitated for just a moment—long enough for Christy to counter a Celtic whip and execute a perfect tilt-a-whirl headscissors. She signaled to the crowd and climbed to the top rope, diving off with a flying crossbody—only for Christina to roll through on impact! One, two—kickout!

Both women staggered to their feet. Christina went for a back suplex, but Christy flipped over and landed on her feet. As Christina turned, Christy caught her with a sharp enzuigiri. With the momentum on her side, Christy went for a sharpshooter again, and this time, she locked it in tight. Christina clawed her way toward the ropes, teeth clenched in agony, before finally grabbing the bottom rope to force the break.

Exhausted, the sisters exchanged forearm strikes in the center of the ring. Christina ducked one, lifting Christy up for a tombstone piledriver—only for Christy to shift her weight and reverse into a tombstone of her own! She dropped Christina hard and covered—one, two, another kickout!

Frustration mounting, Christy attempted a running crossbody, but Christina caught her and countered into a sidewalk slam. She pulled Christy up, looking for the Angel Wings one more time, but Christy countered with a sunset flip—one, two, three! Christy Angel grabbed the victory in a flash pin!
Winner: Christy Angel via Sunset Flip Reversal -> Pin 

Boss M's: Haha! What?! I didn't see that one coming! Not even my brand, but that was unexpected! 

Nerma: Christy Angel wins! Christy wins! Christina is in shock! Christy is running around the ring. She can barely believe it herself. Big win for Christy! Possibly the biggest of her career. 

Boss M's: No possibly about it. That IS the biggest win. Makes me want to snag up The Gamer Girlz. 

Nerma: NO WAY! 

Boss M's: DON'T TELL ME HOW TO RUN MY BRAND, NERMA!

Apple Kid: Speaking of your brand, it's time to see who the top Sailor Sensation is, as Makoto Kino puts the EBW Women's Championship on the line against her friend, her ally, her former Queen, Usagi Tsukino. It's Makoto vs. Usagi, scout vs. scout, for the EBW Women's Championship, and it's NEXT! Usagi is coming out with Seiya Kou and her cat. How does she have that thing so well trained! I'm pretty sure it talks! 

Larry Grim: Is that really that much of a surprise? 

Apple Kid: Not as much as it should be. I mean on the way here earlier, I was blocked in traffic by a giant Dungeon Man trying to cross the street. Weird things happen all the time.




Larry Grim: Ignore the doubters and haters Usagi. You tossed aside a definitive life, for one of infinite possibility. It was a gamble, but the choice of free will was yours to make. We're proud of you. Embrace this new life and live it to the fullest!

Apple Kid: It makes me happy because Minako is all mine now. Hahahaha!  Wait…here comes Makoto, but….but what's that that Makoto is wearing?!

Larry Grim: Oh man! Things just got serious!






8. Xcite - EBW Women's Championship: Makoto Kino(c) vs. Usagi Tsukino
-Next up, the battle for the EBW Women's Championship delivered high drama and electrifying action. Makoto Kino, the reigning champion celebrated for her unyielding power, stepped into the ring against her friend, ally, and at one time potential queen in Usagi Tsukino. The scorned Usagi turned away from her predetermined destiny to live her own life, and in the process lost a bright future that hinged upon her compliance. She's spent years rebuilding her happiness, reuniting with her friends, finding love with Seiya Kou, and now getting a title shot against Makoto. 

The match began with respectful nods exchanged before the tension exploded into action. Makoto unleashed a barrage of heavy strikes—powerful chops, thunderous punches, and a devastating clothesline that rocked Usagi early. She respected Usagi enough to not go easy on her. In response, Usagi demonstrated her agility, evading attacks and launching a rapid sequence of kicks that built toward her signature style. She seemed out-powered, and Makoto had the definite reach advantage, but Usagi kept coming back for more. 

As the contest intensified, Usagi ascended the ropes, executing a series of aerial maneuvers that thrilled the audience. In one stunning display, she performed a flawless backflip crossbody that sent Makoto crashing into the turnbuckle. With the tide clearly turning, Usagi took a heavy right-hand blow and escaped the Supreme Thunder Dragon Suplex with a perfectly timed Silver Millennium Slam, followed by a soaring moonsault that left Makoto flat on the canvas. The referee counted to three as the arena erupted in cheers, marking the moment Usagi Tsukino claimed the championship.
Winner: Usagi Tsukino via Silver Millennium Slam x Moonsault -> Pin -> NEW EBW Women's Champion! 

The crowd was still buzzing from the breathtaking bout between Makoto Kino and Usagi Tsukino for the EBW Women’s Championship. Both women gave everything. Both left it all in the ring.

Makoto stood in the center, sweat dripping, chest rising and falling as the ref raised her hand—not in victory, but in honor. Usagi was the new champion, but Makoto’s performance was undeniable.

Yet even as the fans cheer her name, Makoto looked… heartbroken. She forced a smile. She clapped for her best friend. She raised Usagi’s hand herself.

The screen above showed a slow-motion shot of her falling to the mat. The fans chanted “THANK YOU MA-KO-TO!” but she stared at the mat… like it was all slipping away.

And then…

Tack Angel’s entrance theme hit!

The arena erupted.

Down the ramp came Tack Angel, wearing his a red, white, and blu suit, flanked by Trevor Mach, Geoff Garrett, and his daughters Christy and Christina—who, despite battling earlier, now walked united beside their dad. Behind them came the rest of the Sailor Sensations, rallying behind their sister in battle and spirit.

Tack climbed into the ring, mic in hand. He walked right up to Makoto and gently put a hand on her shoulder.

Tack Angel: I know this isn't how you thought tonight would end… but Makoto… tonight wasn’t about losing. It was about showing everyone who you are: the strongest, most passionate, most powerful woman I’ve ever met.

He turned and motioned to Trevor, who gave a thumbs up and smirked.

Usagi, standing beside Makoto now, still clutched the title, and gave her friend a knowing nod.

Tack Angel: So, I thought… why not end the biggest night of your career… with the biggest moment of our lives? Let’s turn this thunderstorm into a forever. Marry me… right here, right now, at Victory Explosion.

The crowd went insane. Makoto's knees buckled slightly. Her eyes flooded with tears, but this time—they were not from loss. They were from overwhelming joy. She clutched her chest, nodding furiously.

Makoto Kino: YES! YES! YES! OF COURSE!

Stagehands rushed down to toss flower petals and roll out a white carpet across the ring. Trevor Mach pulled a bowtie out of his pocket and clipped it on over his t-shirt. Christy and Christina tossed rose petals in sync. Usagi handed Makoto a bouquet.

Usagi Tsukino: Tonight, I might’ve won the title… but you just won something way bigger.

Geoff Garrett, fully ordained to perform marriages, stepped into the ring, mic in hand and tears in his own eyes.

Geoff Garrett: Ladies and gentlemen, family, friends, fighters, champions, and Senshi. We stand here tonight not just inside the squared circle, but inside a sacred space… where battles are fought, stories are told, and yes, on rare and beautiful occasions like this one… where love becomes eternal. Tonight isn’t just the culmination of a wrestling supercard. It's the culmination of something far more powerful. Because no suplex, no powerbomb, no top-rope moonsault can compare to the strength of a bond forged in fire, forged in pain, and forged in passion. And that is what Tack and Makoto have found. Tack Angel. The Star Spangled Prince of Eagleland. Father. Fighter. Patriot. Visionary. The man who wears a crown, but never forgets what it means to serve. You have faced unbeatable odds, unrelenting villains, interdimensional crises—and yet, here you are, vulnerable before the one person who makes you feel whole.

Geoff turned to Makoto.

Geoff Garrett: Makoto Kino. Senshi of Thunder. Warrior of Heart. Woman of unmatched strength and grace. You have weathered storms—inside and outside this ring—and shown us what true resilience looks like. Tonight, you stand not as someone who lost a title… but as someone who gained a partner for life. Marriage, like wrestling, is about trust. It's about protecting each other when times get hard, tagging in when the other is tired, and always having each other's back—even when the crowd turns on you, or life hits you with a steel chair. So now, before these witnesses, I ask you you a very important question. Do you, Tack Angel, vow to be her tag team partner in life and in love, in victory and in defeat, in kayfabe and in shoot, for as long as your story continues?

Tack Angel: With every fiber of my being… I do.

Geoff Garrett: And do you, Makoto Kino, vow to be his thunderous heart, his guiding star, and his equal in and out of the ring, through every storm that life throws your way?

Makoto Kino: I do. A million times, I do.

Geoff Garrett: Then by the power vested in me I now pronounce you husband and wife, bonded not just by love, but by MEGA POWER! Tack, you may now kiss your beautiful bride!

Tack and Makoto kissed, officially becoming man and wife at Victory Explosion!



Boss M's: I was NOT expecting to see that tonight. Well done Tack…impressive. 

Apple Kid: I wonder if Minako is going to want a gesture like that from me! AH! 

Larry Grim: Anything can happen in EBW and at Victory Explosion, but we're not done yet! Up next, a double decker deal of championship main events! We start with the EBW Championship, where Dan Club takes on the EBW Champion Colby Roads. If you know these guys, you know this won't be 3-on-1….at least for long. They all want to hold the gold. Let's get to it…just as soon as they…clear the ring of the lovebirds and petals. Yeah.

9. Xcite - EBW Championship: Colby Roads(c) vs. Bashin Dan vs. Jammer vs. Benjamin
-The match for the EBW Championship unfolded as a clash of legends and brotherhood. Four of the sport’s iconic competitors—Bashin Dan, Jammer, Benjamin, and the reigning champion Colby Roads—stepped into the ring, setting aside personal bonds for one night in pursuit of glory.

The match erupted with explosive energy. Colby Roads, oozing malice and confident swagger, initiated the assault with vicious strikes aimed at disorienting his challengers. The Dan Club trio—Bashin Dan, Jammer, and Benjamin—quickly synchronized their efforts, unleashing a series of coordinated maneuvers: rapid strikes, double-team suplexes, and a flurry of forearm smashes that nearly overwhelmed Colby early on, making him leave the ring. Dan, Jammer, and Benjamin proceeded to stun with lightning fast moves and counters, as the trio knew each other so well. 

Colby, however, exploited every misstep with cunning precision. In a turning moment, after Bashin Dan’s bold attempt at a high-angle dropkick, Colby unleashed his notorious move, the Cheese Grater—a brutal twist and slam that sent Benjamin crashing down, leaving him stunned. As the match approached its climax Benjamin remained motionless on the canvas, Colby delivered another devastating Cheese Grater. 1-2-KICKOUT! Dan and Jammer made it back into the ring, and they all began throwing hands again. Colby wanted to lay Benji out with a chair as Dan and Jammer fought over who would go for the finish, but they quickly split on that and focused on Mamoru and CP Munk who tried to get involved. RnK and LG Rod were next to try and get involved. Queen Beryl tried to rush down to the ring, but she was stopped by both Cheerleader Jenny and Lainey Strong. It was chaos in and out of the ring. This brought out Vape to a mixed reaction of cheers and gagging. He slowly rolled into the ring and grabbed the chair from Colby, before SMASHING Benjamin in the head with the chair. Dan and Jammer looked stunned as Vape then charged at them, and took them out of the ring as Colby hit another Cheese Grater on the Mystic Bout Machine for the 1-2-3! 
Winner: Colby Roads via Cheese Grater on Benjamin -> Pin 

Apple Kid: WHAT?! WHAT THE HELL DID VAPE JUST DO?! HE JUST SCREWED JAMMER! HE SCREWED DAN! HE SCREWED BENJAMIN! HE SCREWED ALL OF US!

Nerma: I don’t believe what I’m seeing. Vape—who came up with Jammer through everything, who bled with Dan and Benjamin—he just threw it all away for Colby Roads and the EBW World Title.

Colby hugged Vape and held up the title. The crowd was raining down boos, trash flying in the ring. Jammer was crawling, stunned. Benjamin was checking on Dan, who was out cold.

Tommy Dukes: This is disgusting! This is betrayal of the highest order! That’s not just turning your back on your friends—that’s turning your back on the fans, on everything that EBW stands for!

Boss M's: Oh please! EBW stands for doing what it takes to be champion, and as for Vape, he just punched his ticket to the next level! I have no choice but to re-evaluate that cake smashing, car *bleep*ing bastard!

Larry Grim: Whether you like it or not, this changes everything. Colby keeps the title. Vape has aligned himself with the Dark Story. And the Dan Club? They have to feel shattered right now.

10. Havok - World Championship: Boomtown(c) vs. Sal Paradise 
-The ultimate showdown for the World Championship encapsulated the turbulent legacy of EBW. Sal Paradise emerged to deafening cheers—a calm, experienced warrior wearing stylish attire with 2025 shades, a throwback to his early days. His grin oozing confidence. The arena darkened except for a single spotlight on the ring as Boomtown, the cocky young heel champion, blasted into the ring on his tank, Sophia the 3rd! He rode in with a swagger and the championship belt proudly displayed. He pointed the cannon directly and Sal and mocked firing at him, as Hotlanta and Generator appeared to help him down. Boomtown rolled into the ring and began jaw jacking with Sal at the ring introductions were made. 

When the bell rang, the match erupted into a kinetic battle that balanced finesse with raw power. Boomtown unleashed a series of high-impact strikes—jabs, uppercuts, and a well-executed spinning backfist that staggered Sal early on. In response, Sal countered with an elegant display of speed and precision, ducking wild swings and retaliating with a crisp running lariat that sent Boomtown reeling into the ropes.

For several intense minutes, the two exchanged momentum. Boomtown attempted his signature Here Comes the Boom!, lifting Sal high before slamming him with explosive force, but Sal managed to roll out at the critical moment to avoid the pin and attempt, showing his experience. The crowd roared as Sal slowly recovered and launched an onslaught of kicks and punches that rattled Boomtown’s defenses.

The battle escalated to a fever pitch. Sal unleashed blistering strikes—spinning kicks, rapid uppercuts, and a jaw-dropping counter that left Boomtown momentarily stunned. Sal brought the BOOM himelf with a big spinebuster. Sensing his moment, Sal climbed to the top rope, paused to let the roaring crowd fuel his resolve, then launched into his signature move—the Perfect Sky. In a display of breathtaking athleticism, he soared through the air and connected with a devastating impact that brought Boomtown crashing down. 1-2-Hotlanta pulled Sal off of Boomtown as the Gulf erupted in boos. This brought out Cade Yaggis, Subculture, and Zyro Kurogane, as they fought off Hotlanta and Generator, and watched as their fellow Pillars decided the fate of Havok. 

Sal smacked Boomtown across the face, and Boomtown fired back with a forearm smash that knocked Sal off his feet. Sal rolled backward and came up fast with a spinning wheel kick. Boomtown staggered, but didn't fall. Instead, he caught Sal mid-run and slammed him with a massive uranage.

Boomtown took control early, using his strength to throw Sal around the ring. A stalling vertical suplex looked impressive, especially at that stage in the match before he dropped Sal with a thunderous crash. He followed with a running senton for a near fall.

Sal, ever the escape artist, ducked a lariat and came back with a dropkick to Boomtown's knee. He capitalized with a basement dropkick, followed by a swinging neckbreaker. Sal bounced off the ropes and nailed a shining wizard. 1-2-KICKOUT!

Sal locked in a figure-four leglock, wrenching back as Boomtown grimaced. The champion roared and reversed the hold, flipping the pressure. Sal scrambled to the ropes. Both men rose, limping, trading stiff forearms and chops. Sal ducked one and hit a Pele kick!

He followed up with a springboard tornado DDT for a close two-count. Sal climbed the top rope and launched into a 450 splash—but Boomtown got the knees up!

Boomtown exploded out of the corner with a lariat that turned Sal inside out. He lifted the challenger and delivered a sit-out powerbomb. 1-2-KICKOUT!

Frustrated, Boomtown called for the end. He set Sal up for another Here Comes the Boom!, but Sal escaped mid-lift and landed behind him, rolling Boomtown into a prawn hold. 1-2-KICKOUT!

Sal hit a flurry of kicks—buzzsaw, spinning heel, and a roundhouse to the temple. Boomtown dropped to his knees, dazed. Sal hit the ropes and nailed a running high knee!

He climbed the turnbuckle again, calling for the Perfect Sky, but Boomtown popped up, met him on the ropes, and delivered a super Avalanche Boom Drop from the second rope!

Both men crashed to the canvas. Boomtown crawled over, arm draped over Sal.

1…2…NO! SAL GOT THE SHOULDER UP!

Boomtown, wild-eyed now, pulled off his elbow pad and went for a discus elbow smash—but Sal ducked, hit a backstabber, then transitioned into the Koji Clutch!

Boomtown thrashed. Fought. Reached. And got the rope break.

Sal waited, poised, and when Boomtown stood, he struck with a springboard cutter!

1…2…NO! Boomtown kicked out!

Sal slapped the mat, frustrated but focused. He went up to the top one more time, and with the fans behind him, the People's Choice hit the Perfect Sky one more time. 1-2-3! 

Sal Paradise won the match, won at Victory Explosion, and won the World Championship! 
Winner: Sal Paradise via Perfect Sky -> Pin -> NEW World Champion! 



Tommy Dukes: HE DID IT! HE DID IT! SAL PARADISE JUST WON THE BIG ONE! AFTER YEARS OF HEARTACHE, HE’S FINALLY THE WORLD CHAMPION ONCE AGAIN!

Nerma: That man has clawed and scratched his way through every level of this company. He’s been knocked down, counted out, and left behind—but tonight, he stood tall over his former protege, Boomtown.

Boss M's: Tch… well I’ll be damned. I said he didn’t have it in him. But Sal Paradise just proved me wrong. Glad to be wrong.

Sal was in tears, holding the EBW World Title up high. Confetti fell. The crowd chanted "YOU DESERVE IT! YOU DESERVE IT!"

Tommy Dukes: From heartbreaks, betrayals, an identity crisis, and a slow recovery from injuries, this man carried EBW on his back when no one else would! And now he stands at the top of the mountain, World Champion! What a moment! What a night! Sal Paradise has reached paradise itself, and the entire world just got a little brighter! Goodnight everybody!!!

Boss M's Office

Boss M's was busy on her phone, chatting away as Minky Momo brought her a Dr. Pepper. 

Boss M's: *on the phone* Yeah yeah, I know Yami Yugi is technically a kid, but so are A LOT of the talent in EBW! My daughter started when she was 15! Besides, he's possessed by a Pharaoh or some stupid shit like that. No, they BOTH play cards, but I think most of the time the Pharaoh is wrestling.  Yeah. Anyways, that's not even why I called. I made a couple of big deals today. One is going to be announced on the show, but the other one, is a surprise for the end. Yeah. Wait….who am I even talking to?

Boss M's suddenly hung up her phone. Right at that moment The Auditor and Preacher Ra entered the room. 

Boss M's: Oh boy, here they come. For the last time boys, I don't know where your box is. I opened that thing cause I was bored, and the pinned dude took one look at me and ran off! 

Preacher Ra: Dig this babe, we're not here for the box. I already saw what it had to offer. 

The Auditor: It's a retro approach to a modern problem. Suffering. It must continue, yet you have made sure that we have been subdued, and it will not continue. You show favoritism towards your husband for example! 

Boss M's: He really fooled you idiots, didn't he? Of course I love my husband, but I'm not as fond of the other guy, so it sort of evens out. Look, I have an approach like Mac. We're going to let the chaos happen. I'm not putting a lid on you. You want to go? Go. You want to hurt people? Try it. I've built a roster that's ready for it. I got Mega Dudes, and I got Dan Club. I've got-

The Auditor: You forget your champion is Colby Roads, who will pave the way to suffering through his reign. 

Boss M's: Oh yes, the "Eagleland Cheese" is EBW Champion, and you can tell his bulbous new friend that he got the job he wanted. See? I'm fair. Now get out of my office. It's going to be a big night. You guys think you're the only ones who are planning to make the roster suffer? Heh. I know a guy who might try to beat you out. 




Larry Grim: Welcome to the Fourside Arena! Welcome to a sold out crowd of Xciters! Welcome to Xcite! I'm Larry Grim, literally a Grim Reaper, and like always, I'm joined by Apple Kid! 

Apple Kid: And I've got my own skeletons in my closet, but not literal ones Larry, so you can relax. I got secrets…all I'm saying. 

Larry Grim: Right. Victory Explosion was HUGE! You already know that we crowned a NEW EBW Women's Champion in Usagi Tsukino, but the EBW Championship itself remains with the Eagleland Cheese and his Dark Story.

Apple Kid: He kept it in a shocking manner! I didn't see it coming! 

Larry Grim: I don't think any of us did. It's always a shock when I do see things. No eyeballs. However, I don't think we'll be having to wait long to ask WHY VAPE WHY, because they're on the way out right now. 

Apple Kid: Right now?! Whoa!






Colby Roads: So, what do you guys wanna talk ab- oh who cares? I know what I want to talk about! The Dark Story continues, and the Eagleland Cheese….well he's NOT standing alone right now. I found myself a man who understood what it felt like to be unappreciated for his talents. I found a man who had been cast aside and left out, and I uplifted him, because THAT is what I do. I find the talented and I uplift them, I don't hold them down. I uplift people. I make careers, because I am the Eagleland Cheese, the TRUE Eagleland dream come true, unlike a couple of frauds I know. I am the best, the greatest, and I am STILL YOUR EBW Champion! I used to say that wrestling had more than one royal family. That's not really true at all. It has one. It's mine and my Queen's. We're the one royal family, and we have a new knight. We have this big man. This freight train of vengeance. This Big Chugga Chungus! Vape! 

Vape: Big Chugga Chungus? I like that. I'm Big Chugga Chungus. 

Colby Roads: Heh. Who am I to argue? 

Big Chugga Chungus: You want to know WHY I did what I did? I think it's pretty obvious why I did what I did. Do you have any idea how hard it is to be me? How hard it is to not have love, just because of what I look like, smell like, and my sick twisted fetishes that no man should know about? It's not FAIR! I fall back to my friends, my only friends, who spent YEARS deriding me, mocking me, and "trying to get me help." I don't NEED your help! I know who I am! It's totally cool to like the things I like and be exactly who I am! I'm right, and I don't need to change! Jammer, you're the joke! You can't sink a shot to save your life, and your disdain for me pushed me over the edge, and I'm the KING of edging. YOU did this! YOU did! It's YOUR FAULT!  YOUR FAULT! YOUR FAULT! YOUR FAAAAAULT!

Suddenly, the crowd picked up as Bashin Dan, Jammer, and Benjamin stood on the stage. 

Bashin Dan: Vape…or Chungus? I'm so disappointed in your choice. You were never someone I had disdain for. You were my friend. You still could be. 

Benjamin: After all this time. All these years we spent on adventures together, you choose now to betray us? 

Jammer: I uh….I ain't going to be as nice as these two, because you screwed me over more than them. You screwed me over more than anyone could screw someone over! All those years I spent housing you, driving you around, covering for you, and putting up with all your horrid, sick, twisted, fetishes! After ALL OF THAT you thank me by stabbing me in the back?! I think I've earned the right to tell you to go *bleep* yourself Chungus! 

Bashin Dan: WHOA! 

Benjamin: Most uncouth! 

Jammer: I really don't care guys! He deserves it! 

Big Chugga Chungus: You made a mockery of me! 

Jammer: You did that to yourself! 

Colby Roads: People please. You're talking amongst yourselves, and not paying enough attention to me. Put that spotlight right back over here. Put it on MY EBW Championship, a title my Dad never won. my brother never even sniffed it! I'm SO the best Roads, and I'm STILL EBW Champion and will REMAIN EBW Champion! I have The Dark Story! I have Big Chugga Chungus! I don't care what the three of you do for the next month, because I have a dance partner already. At Collision, I will embarrass Sal Paradise. I really want to put that Super Champion notion to the test. I'm sure you've heard whispers about it. I'm sure everyone wants to know what it's about. I'm SURE Bashin Dan wanted the honor. I say….we find out who the Super Champion truly is. What do you say Sal? Champion vs. Champion like before, but the titles are on the line! The winner becomes the EBW Super Champion! Let's make this Collision truly have high stakes! 

Jammer: DON'T IGNORE ME! I'm sick of being looked at as a JOKE! My three pointers might be lacking, but I know how to take it to the hole! I've got the assists to back up my claim that I've been a good friend to Chungus over there. I've redeemed myself with Dan and Benji! I put up with the BS time and time again and was overlooked! I'm NOT going to be overlooked! I will make sure you know not to forget about me Roads, but not before I deal with him. Chungus! You and I have a Collision of our own coming up. Make no mistake! I'm finally going to give you the ass kicking you deserve! 

Big Chugga Chungus: I can't wait! I SO CAN'T WAIT! I'm going to make you pay for what you did to me! 

Jammer: Make me pay for taking care of the big manbaby. Yeah, maybe I deserve a slap to the head for putting up with your shit that long! Like I said before, go *bleep* yourself! 

Bashin Dan: That's another dollar for Trevor's Swear Jar. 

Jammer: No way, that's your future father-in-law, not mine! 

Benjamin: Jammer's sentiments are not his alone. You underestimate Dan Club, and that's a mistake many have made, and they live to regret it. 

Bashin Dan: You will too. When all is said and done. You will too.

Apple Kid: Wow! Big stuff going on right there! What's that about Super Champions!? Colby throwing down the challenge. I guess the EBW Championship isn't enough? What more could you want? 

Larry Grim: Little Mac and Boss M's have long spoken about the concept of Super Champions. I also suspect that Collision might be the time to resurrect the Team Rings? 

Boss M's: NO! 

Larry Grim: Ah! Tali? I mean Boss M's, what are you doing here? 

Apple Kid: I want to know how you keep sneaking up on us! 

Lucca: That's all me. I'm very sneaky. 

Boss M's: You would have to really really convince me to bring back the World Team Championship Rings! 

Larry Grim: It says here that it's one of your big announcements for the night? 

Boss M's: What?! Where does it say that?! Who said that I said that?! I want answers! 

Larry Grim: Right here, it says that you are excited to announce that Xcite is heading to Hanta City, home of the Geist Corporation and owners of Cafe Noir Brand Coffee, and that Geist Corporation has become a key sponsor and partner for the Xcite Brand. The owner, a Mr. Blake Faust personally asked to have them revived? I think he's a fan of championships, cause he's always wearing a belt himself. 

Boss M's: That dollar amount. Is that the amount he's investing?

Larry Grim: It is. 

Boss M's: ….I am SO HAPPY to announce that the World Team Rings will be returning to EBW at Collision! Teams from Xcite and Havok will battle over it, and we're going to make it an annual thing, instead of like it used to be. The winner's Brand will be Team Champions until the next year's Collision, and we'll treat it like the Superb Owl with a trophy and a cash prize! So the team itself might dissolve, but the winners will get Rings and the Brand will be considered the winner for the year!  

Apple Kid: …Did you make all of that up on the fly? 

Boss M's: N-NO! That was always the plan! 

Apple Kid: Huh. 

Boss M's: ALSO, I'm pleased to announce that with Hanta City becoming an Xcite city, Little Mac wants to renegotiate the terms of our city bans on each other. Xcite MIGHT be coming to a city near you. Just call and complain to Mac all day if you want us in your town. Will it bother him? Who gives a shit? You think you deserve some peace and quiet? OH GOOD FOR YOU! This is what it's all about, Mac! It's Collision season, and I live for competition! Let's go! 

Apple Kid: Wait! you said you had another big announcement! 

Boss M's: You'll find that out LATER tonight! I have to meet this Blake Faust apparently. He's in the building. Wonder what he's like?

Backstage

Trevor Mach was rushing with fervor to get somewhere. He seemed like a man on a mission, with his eyes on the prize. 

Trevor Mach: Super Champions!? We're doing Super Champions now? No WAY Tack and I miss out on this. The Mega Dudes have to throw down the challenge against Team Samurai! I'm ALL about raising the stakes and-

He suddenly bumped shoulders with another man. 

 

Trevor Mach: Whoa! Sorry about that! I was preoccupied. 

?: No worries! I was just startled because I'm still not used to being able to bump into people. 

Trevor Mach: Huh? 

?:  Don't worry about it. The name's Blake Faust. I'm the CEO of Geist Corporation.

Trevor Mach: I thought you looked familiar. I'm a big fan. 

Blake Faust: And I'm a big fan of yours. I'll be watching what you do next with great interest. 

Trevor Mach: Well get hyped then, cause it's a golden year! 

Blake Faust: You have no idea! 

EBW: Xcite "Year 20 Begins!"
Fourside Arena, Fourside
ENN

1. Tag: Troy/Snakebite vs. Tai/Matt
-The bell rang and Troy immediately locked up with Tai, overpowering him with a brutal short-arm clothesline. Tai bounced off the canvas as Troy tagged in Snakebite, who delivered a series of stomps to Tai's midsection. When Tai finally struggled toward his corner, Matt reached for the tag, but Tai deliberately fell short and rolled away. The crowd murmured in confusion as Snakebite capitalized with a punishing gutwrench suplex. Troy tagged back in and the SUFFER stable members executed a perfectly timed double-team vertical suplex. Troy followed with a diving knee drop for a near fall. After enduring minutes of punishment, Tai finally made the desperate tag to Matt, who exploded into the ring with a missile dropkick to Troy and a hurricanrana to Snakebite. 

Matt cleared the ring with a suicide dive through the middle rope, crashing into both opponents on the outside. For a brief moment, Tai seemed impressed, nodding slightly as Matt climbed back to the apron. The momentary unity dissolved when Snakebite blindsided Tai with a steel chair to the back while the referee dealt with Troy. 

Tai staggered forward, dazed, as Troy measured him carefully before unleashing a devastating Punt Kick that connected flush with Tai's temple. The sickening impact silenced the crowd as Troy hooked Tai's leg, securing the three-count victory while Matt watched helplessly from the apron, confusion and concern etched across his face.
Winners: Troy[o]/Snakebite via Punt Kick to Tai -> Pin 

Larry Grim: Wow, a big win for SUFFER there. The new guys are still finding their groove. 

Apple Kid: Tai is going to have to find his head after that Punt Kick! They're supposed to be friends, but Tai doesn't seem very fond of Matt. I wonder why. 

Larry Grim: Well if they're going to be a team that can match up to the Mega Dudes down the line, they'd better get it together. I'm being told that Boss M's has been on the phone with Little Mac and after a meeting with Geist CEO Blake Faust, it's been decided that Geist will be personally sponsoring Collision, and the event is being moved to Hanta City! Don't worry Twoson, we've got something special for you coming up. You know we love the Fairgrounds. 

Apple Kid: I guess money talks though. 

Larry Grim: Apparently we'll hear from Sal Paradise regarding the EBW Super Champion thing, but we can now confirm already that Team Samurai have agreed to meet the Mega Dudes in a match for the EBW Super Tag Team Champions. They're laying out rules super quickly! Things are changing fast post Victory Explosion. It really was a show that changed the landscape! 

Apple Kid: So basically, the champs have to wager their titles for these matches. So only one man or one team will emerge as Super Champion or Champions, and the titles will be vacated. You'll have to be a champion to then challenge the Super Champion, and you have to vacate to in order for the match to be made? I'm pretty sure that's what they're saying? Tali scribbled some notes and that Minky Momo passed it along. I asked her what it said, but I don't think she speaks Eaglish. 

Larry Grim: It's an interesting concept! Lots of EBW concepts come and go. Let's hope this one works out and sticks around. Hey, I'm just being honest. Our company are the KINGS of throwing it at the wall to see if it sticks. Up next, we have the Neon Valkyrie, coming off her first loss to Tracy, as she takes on the Euroland Princess, Gianna Rambaldi. Let's get to it! 
 
2. Women's Singles: Astrid Rúnsdóttir vs. Gianna Rambaldi
-Rambaldi took control early with a snapping arm drag followed by a stiff knee strike to Astrid's midsection. When the referee checked on Astrid's condition, Rambaldi used his blocked vision to rake Astrid's eyes and slam her face-first into the turnbuckle. Rambaldi maintained dominance with a dragon sleeper hold, wrenching Astrid's neck as the crowd rallied behind their favorite.

Astrid broke free but walked into a spinning backbreaker that folded her spine at a sickening angle. Rambaldi covered for a long two-count. Growing frustrated, Rambaldi ascended the turnbuckle for a high-risk maneuver, but Astrid recovered quickly enough to meet her up top. The crowd roared as Astrid executed a thunderous superplex that sent both women crashing to the mat.

Both competitors struggled to their feet, trading forearm strikes in the center of the ring. Astrid gained momentum with a series of exploder suplexes followed by a release German suplex that sent Rambaldi tumbling. As Rambaldi wobbly rose, she attempted her finishing corkscrew neckbreaker, but Astrid countered, hoisting Rambaldi onto her shoulders. The crowd erupted as Astrid delivered her Ragnarok Driver, spiking Rambaldi head-first into the canvas for the decisive three-count victory.
Winner: Astrid Rúnsdóttir via Ragnarok Driver -> Pin 

Astrid celebrated the win, and probably felt relieved at getting the winner's purse, but that celebration was short-lived as the big screen came to life. 

A Lakitu panned to reveal Tracy standing in what appeared to be an opulent living room. She was dressed in a pristine white with gold accessories, an oversized cross pendant hanging prominently around her neck. Behind her sat an array of luxury shopping bags from designer stores, several still with price tags visible. A brand new 65-inch television with the plastic still on it sits in the corner, and a stack of shoe box towers nearby. She held a microphone and a Bible, the latter clearly never opened.

Tracy: My BEAUTIFUL children of the LORD! Can I get an AMEN tonight?! Tracy coming to you LIVE with a message of SALVATION and TRUTH! The Lord has BLESSED me abundantly this week, brothers and sisters! He has shown his divine favor upon me by delivering VICTORY against that wicked, PAGAN woman Astrid Rúnsdóttir at the Victory Explosion!

She picked up a bottle of expensive champagne from beside her, then quickly set it down when she realized it was in frame.

Tracy: You see, that woman worships FALSE IDOLS! She calls upon ancient Norse gods—DEMONS, my children!—to give her strength! But the LORD showed who the TRUE champion is when he guided my hand in our contract signing, ensuring ALL the proceeds would come to ME! Now, I know what you're thinking. 'Sister Tracy, what will you do with such worldly treasures?' Well, my lambs, I assure you—EVERY PENNY will go to the LORD'S work!

The Lakitu panned too wide, revealing shopping receipts scattered on a table and a set of car keys with a luxury brand logo.

Tracy: The scripture tells us in, um... *cough cough* Hesitations 3:16 that 'The righteous shall PROSPER while the wicked shall FALL!' Astrid Rúnsdóttir FELL before me just as the Lord planned! Her pagan ways couldn't save her from my righteous FURY!

She kicked a shopping bag out of frame with her freshly manicured foot.

Tracy: Before I found the Lord, I was lost in sin. But now I am SAVED! And part of being saved means being REWARDED, my children! Is a servant not worthy of her wages? The Lord WANTS his faithful to have nice things! That's why I have—That's why the MINISTRY has been blessed with these beautiful new... ministry supplies. Yes, these are ALL for church functions! This designer purse? For carrying extra Bibles! These shoes? For walking the path of righteousness more COMFORTABLY! So remember, my flock—give GENEROUSLY to Sister Tracy's Ministry of Truth! Sow your seed TODAY! The more you give, the more you'll receive... well, in heaven, of course. For now, I'll receive it on the Lord's behalf! Stay blessed, stay RIGHTEOUS, and remember—Sister Tracy loves you... almost as much as she loves herself—I mean, the LORD! Hallelujah!

3. CXJ Division Tag: Maseo Kurenai/Grind vs. Switchback/Johnny Starbound
-The match began at breakneck speed with Maseo and Switchback exchanging lightning-fast arm drags and dropkicks. Switchback gained the advantage with a tilt-a-whirl backbreaker before tagging in Starbound. The rudo team isolated Maseo in their corner, utilizing quick tags and illegal double-team moves including a devastating elevated DDT when the referee was out of position.

Maseo absorbed tremendous punishment, including Starbound's diving leg drop across his throat for a near fall. Barely escaping a Gory Special submission hold, Maseo finally made the desperate dive to tag in Grind, who exploded into the ring with a handspring back elbow that caught Starbound flush. Grind followed with a standing moonsault and a lightning-fast enzuigiri that dropped Starbound in his tracks.

The match reached fever pitch when all four competitors entered the fray. Maseo delivered a springboard forearm to Switchback while Grind and Starbound traded counters in the ring. Grind reversed Starbound's powerbomb attempt into a hurricanrana that sent Starbound reeling against the ropes. As Switchback was knocked from the apron by Maseo's roundhouse kick, Grind seized the opening, ascending the top rope. The crowd stood in awe as Grind launched himself into a perfectly executed Rolling Shooting Star Press that crashed down on Starbound with breathtaking impact. Both men lay motionless for several seconds before Grind managed to drape his arm across Starbound's chest. The referee counted three as the arena erupted in appreciation of the spectacular finish.

Backstage

Good News Gary: GOOD NEWS Everyone! Good News Gary is BACK with a chance to interview the one and only Star Spangled Prince, though I doubt he'll need me to say much. He's got the main event tonight against Komaram Bheem, so let's hear from the Eagleland Champion, Tag Team Champion, and potential future SUPER Champion. Tack Angel!

Tack Angel: EAGLELAND! STAND UP AND BE COUNTED!

The crowd roared as Tack paced the backstage area with energy and purpose.

Tack Angel: You know, folks say that lightning doesn't strike twice. Well, at Victory Explosion, thunder and lightning crashed down TWICE for the Star Spangled Prince! Not only did the Mega Dudes—that's me and my brother Trevor—capture the EBW Tag Team Championships in a battle that'll go down in HISTORY, but I also had the honor, the PRIVILEGE, of standing before all of you fine patriots as I married the woman of my dreams, the thunder to my lightning, the beautiful and powerful Makoto Kino!

He touched his wedding band tenderly.

Tack Angel: That's right! The Jupiter Princess and the Star Spangled Prince are now officially united under the banner of matrimony! And let me tell you, when you've got love like that in your corner, when you've got the support of a woman who can throw lightning AND a mean right hook—there ain't a man alive who can take this Eagleland Championship from around my waist! Now, Trevor and I have our sights set on becoming SUPER Tag Team Champions. We're talking coast to coast, border to border domination! But first things first...Komaram Bheem. A warrior with the heart of a lion and the strength of ten men. A champion in his own right. I respect you, Bheem. Your accomplishments speak for themselves. Your courage is unquestionable. But when you step into this ring with me, you're not just facing Tack Angel. You're facing every single one of these Stargazers in the crowd! You're facing the spirit of the red, white, and blue that courses through my veins! You're facing a man who just made the most beautiful commitment of his life and promised his bride he'd come home with that championship still around his waist! So Bheem, bring everything you've got. Bring your heart, bring your courage, bring your championship pedigree. But understand this—when the Star Spangled Prince has love in his corner and patriotism in his heart, he... cannot... LOSE! For the Stargazers, for Makoto, for the red, white, and blue—this Prince will REIGN SUPREME!

4. 6-Mix Tag: Usagi Tsukino/Point Man/Magnum PT vs. Queen Beryl/Randy no Kachi/LG Rod
-The match descended into chaos from the opening bell as Usagi and Queen Beryl started with a flurry of strikes and counter-strikes. Beryl gained the upper hand with a brutal hairpull takedown followed by a running knee strike. The Dark Story team employed frequent illegal switches behind the referee's back, allowing Randy no Kachi to blindside Usagi with a vicious clothesline.

LG Rod tagged in and continued the assault with a series of stomps and a swinging neckbreaker on Usagi. When Usagi finally made the tag, Point Man entered with technical precision, executing a beautiful sequence of arm drags and a bridging Northern Lights suplex on Randy for a near fall. Randy responded with a thumb to the eye and tagged in Queen Beryl, forcing Point Man to tag Usagi back in.

Usagi narrowly escaped Beryl's finishing move and made the hot tag to Magnum PT, who cleared the ring with a series of lariats and a massive fallaway slam to LG Rod. The match broke down completely as all six competitors brawled throughout the arena. Point Man executed a suicide dive over the top rope onto Queen Beryl and Randy, while Usagi connected with a moonsault from the ring steps.

As the legal participants, Magnum PT and LG Rod battled back in the ring. Rod attempted his finisher, a swinging reverse STO, but Magnum countered by catching him in mid-air. The crowd erupted as Magnum PT hoisted Rod onto his shoulders and delivered his devastating Mustache Ride. Rod was completely motionless as the referee counted to three, securing the victory for the Sensational Wrecking Crew.

After the match, Queen Beryl pointed at Usagi, and made it clear that she wanted to challenge her for the EBW Women's Championship.

Larry Grim: Well the Battle Royale winner is calling her shot. She's also one half of the EBW Women's Tag Team Champions. She's a former EBW Women's Champion.

Apple Kid: She's also USAGI'S BIGGEST RIVAL OF ALL TIME….*clears throat* according to Minako. 

Larry Grim: How is she doing by the way? 

Apple Kid: She spent some time celebrating with Makoto Ki-Angel and then got right back to work, training to be the best of the best!



Larry Grim: Usagi is going to have her hands full, with a challenge from Queen Beryl and an upcoming Xcite vs. Havok Collision match with Women's World Champion Heather Mach. 

Apple Kid: Hey, I thought we weren't doing Collision anymore. Didn't someone else steal the name? 

Larry Grim: No one watches that. Barely anyone knows it exists. We did it first. It's ours. They can bite my boney butt. Now, it's time for us to buckle up, as we take it up a notch, with our main event. The Star Spangled Prince Tack Angel, will defend the Eagleland Championship against "The Water" Komaram Bheem. Can Bheem recover from the EBW Tag Team Championship loss with his first singles gold? We're about to find out. Let's do it to it! 

5. EBW Eagleland Championship: Tack Angel(c) vs. Komaram Bheem 
-The championship contest began with a respectful handshake before both men locked up in the center of the ring. Tack gained early control with a waistlock takedown followed by a series of technical mat holds, targeting Bheem's left arm. Bheem countered with his superior striking ability, connecting with knife-edge chops that echoed throughout the arena.
The pace quickened as Tack executed a beautiful springboard dropkick followed by a barrage of kicks for a two-count. Bheem responded with a devastating suplex variation, lifting Tack high before driving him into the canvas. 

Tack regained momentum with a tiger feint kick that stunned Bheem, followed by big slam. Bheem kicked out at two and countered Tack's follow-up with a powerbomb into the turnbuckle. Bheem then connected with his Waterfall Bomb—a sitout powerbomb—for a heart-stopping near fall that brought the audience to their feet.

Just as Tack landed more kicks and picked up Bheem for the Torture Rack, members of the SUFFER stable stormed the ring. Troy and Snakebite attacked Tack with steel chairs while Bheem fought off multiple attackers. Trevor Mach ran out to help, as did Rama Raju, and they kept the SUFFER team at bay. The referee called for the bell as the assault continued. Despite suffering the worst of the attack, Tack retained his championship via disqualification, though he could barely stand.
Winner: Tack Angel via DQ 

Larry Grim: It's crazy! It's anarchy! It's Xcite! Apparently SUFFER's Troy and Snakebite wanted to strike against the EBW Tag Team Champion and call their shot! 

Apple Kid: By wrapping a chair around his head?! Ouch! 

Larry Grim: The Mega Dudes and RRR are standing together, but-

Boss M's: Hold it! Hold it everyone! I know we've got a lot going on with Xcite right now. The Mega Dudes, RRR, and Weekend Wrecking Crew don't like The Dark Story. The Sailor Sensations don't like The Dark Story. I'M not too fond of The Dark Story. But…you know me…a little chaos is never enough. I like to dabble with straight up madness, and when you have a promotion that has a Star Spangled Prince, a Queen Beryl, and a self proclaimed King in EBW Champion Colby Roads, why not add some more "royalty" to the mix. Why not add….a MAD KING.




Larry Grim: Is it?! IT IS! LUCA BLIGHT IS HERE!!!

Apple Kid: OH *bleep*! 

Larry Grim: Yeah, that's actually what I'm thinking too. 

Larry and Apple: AAAAHHHHH!!!!!
