In a well lit room, wind blew threw white curtains, as rose petals fell from the ceiling.

?: Destiny. You can run from it. You can bury it. You can pretend you've outgrown it even. Destiny doesn't forget. It remember you. It remembers your place. It remembers your purpose. If time is a predator that stalks us, then destiny is what pushes us to rage against that predator and make our mark. I tried to leave it all behind, but I was wrong. The fire never went out. Destiny was going unanswered, but I couldn't stop hearing it. I'm listening again. You see...there are things in this world that demand balance. When the scales tip too far...someone has to set them right.

Larry Grim: Konichiwa! This skeleton man is pleased to be reporting LIVE...on tape delay from Kora Hall in Edo!

Apple Kid: I LOVE being in Minako's backyard!

Larry Grim: That's right, this is the home of the Sensations, and tonight that might just count for something, but we'll get to that later. We have an incredible line up for you tonight, with a stellar main event!

Larry Grim: The "Wild Hero" Trevor Mach will team up with Dan Club's Bashin Dan and Jammer to take on EBW Champion Luca Blight, and two new members to the Army of Blight! He's got a lot of names wanting to flock to him now that he's officially decided that EBW is his to conquer.

Apple Kid: Well, he's got the EBW Championship, that beautiful new meteor title, and everyone is going to gravitate to that...cause it's a meteor...with a gravitational pu- it was a bad joke. Forget it. I failed. Don't look at me!

Larry Grim: Uh....but we also have Hotaru Tomoe, the young and athletic rookie, who is far more dangerous than she appears, taking on Queen Beryl in a Lumberjill match!

Apple Kid: I've always wanted to see Minako in flannel.

Larry Grim: I don't think they have to dress the part.

Apple Kid: ...DANG IT!

Larry Grim: Seto Kaiba also has a mystery partner for his match tonight as well. We begin the night with a 3-Team tag however, as the Digi-Destined take on the Army of Blight, and the stellar team of Seiya Kou and the Star Spangled Prince, Tack Angel! It's going to be such a great show, but what was that thing we saw that opened the show?

Apple Kid: I have no idea, but I get a feeling we're going to find out.

Larry Grim: We're about to see some great XCITING action in Edo! Let's go!

EBW: Xcite
Kora Hall, Kyoto, Edo
ENN

1. 3-Team Tag: Matt/Tai vs. Troy/Snakebite vs. Tack Angel/Seiya Kou
-The night opened at a furious pace as all three teams went right at each other with constant tags and broken pin attempts. Tack Angel nearly stole it after a springboard strike on Tai, but chaos erupted when Snakebite pulled him outside. In the closing stretch, Seiya Kou tried to rally with a flurry on Troy, only to be caught flush with a brutal Punt Kick. Snakebite cleared the ring, while Mamoru Chiba and Danny Leung suddenly appeared to distract Tack Angel from getting back in the ring. Troy covered Seiya for the decisive three-count.
Winners: Troy[o]/Snakebite via Punt Kick to Seiya Kou -> Pin

Larry Grim: Oh come on! Mamoru Chiba and Danny Leung kept Tack out of that finish, and it led to the Army of Blight getting the win over the team! They specifically wanted to humiliate Tack! Wait...who is that on the stage? Is that-

Apple Kid: That's Nimbus Tenebris! We saw her....we saw her....

Larry Grim: Speak of a past with Tack, and then she planted a big kiss on him. I'm sure Makoto isn't thrilled with that. We still don't know the whole story there! We-

?: What's left after the fire goes out? Ashes. From the ashes, you can build something new. From the ashes you can find a new path. From...the...ashes.

Sailor Sensations Locker Room

Makoto Angel entered the room, looking for her friends, and with a lot of questions about Nimbus Tenebris.

Makoto Angel: That woman...she kissed him. She actually kissed him! Why...why does she seem so familiar? When I think about her, I remember something...a brief glimpse...when I was....more? Hey everyone, where are yo-

Minako Aino: Oh hey there, Makoto!

Makoto Angel: Minako? Is that you?

Minako Aino: Yeah? What?

Minako Aino: It's my costume!

Makoto Angel: ...For?

Minako Aino: Lumberjill match! What do you think?

Makoto Angel: You uh...uh....

Minako Aino: I didn't have to dress up....did I?

Makoto Angel: I don't think so.

Minako Aino: DANG IT!

Makoto Angel: But it looks great!

Minako Aino: Yeah?

Makoto Angel: Yeah. I would....I would totally keep it.

Minako Aino: Alright! I'm really going to commit! I'll be the best Lumberjill! Where's my axe? I'm going to cut down a tree.

Makoto Angel: You're not actually going to- never mind. I'll see you out there. *sigh*

2. Women's Tag: Cheerleader Jenny/Officer Lainey Strong vs. Taiki Kou/Yaten Kou
-The Dark Starlights worked in tandem early, isolating Lainey Strong and cutting the ring in half. Jenny shifted the momentum with high-energy offense and a perfectly timed distraction. The turning point came when Jenny blasted Yaten Kou with a thunderous Hip Attack, leaving her stunned long enough for the Cheerleader to drop down for the pin.
Winners: Cheerleader Jenny[o]/Officer Lainey Strong via Hip Attack to Yaten Kou -> Pin

Larry Grim: Wow! Short and sweet for Jenny and Strong! The two were on fire there! They've been struggling to come into their own since Jenny went solo from her sister and adopted the new look, while Lainey finished up officer's training with the police, but that looked to me like two women who were finally clicking!

Apple Kid: Any day that the negaverse minions are defeated is a good day for me! It encourages me to keep dipping back into the ring myself!

Larry Grim: Yes, congratulations on two successful matches without injuring yourself!

Apple Kid: Lukie Yoga making all the difference, and Lukie Yoga just happens to be our sponsor today! Thank you Lukie Yoga! Our other sponsor is Fourside Men's Suit Warehouse! We have a special commercial from Mr. Suitman, the founder and CEO of the company, let's take a look.

Larry Grim: Mr. Suitman? That's very on the nose. Oh, I pointed to my nose...which I don't have. *sigh*

-

Mr. Suitman: I'm Mr. Suitman, no first name, and this is my company, the Fourside Men's Suit Warehouse. I have all kinds of suits in all kinds of sizes. I was literally made for this. So come on down and check us out. You're gonna like the way you look. I guarantee it.

Producer: Sorry. Cut. We have to cut. Here. Read this.

Mr. Suitman: What's this? Are you saying I can't-

Producer: Let's just roll it again.

Mr. Suitman: I was literally made for this. You're gonna like the way you look, and due to a pending lawsuit, I'm legally unable to guarantee it. Sorry is it just me, or does that not sound right?

Producer: Just go with it.

Mr. Suitman: ....I was literally made for this. You're going to like the way you look, and while I don't guarantee it, let's just say that I strongly feel that there is a very good chance that you in one of these suits, will most likely like the way that you look.

Producer: Cut. Try it again.

Mr. Suitman: *sigh* I'm going to raise my hands, and this gesture means that I guarantee what I just said...even if I don't say I guarantee it. Are you following?

Producer: Come on! No!

Mr. Suitman: You're gonna like the way you look. *raises hands*

Producer: Cut!

Mr. Suitman: PUT ON THE *bleep*ING SUIT AND LOVE THE WAY YOU LOOK! IT'S SILK FROM EUROLAND! I GOT IT EUROLAND!

Producer: CUT!

Mr. Suitman: You know who liked the way I look? You wife, when we *bleep*ed in your attic!

Producer: I'm not married.

Mr. Suitman: Then who liked the way I look? She liked my girth. I guarantee it.

-

Larry Grim: So....they just let that whole thing air? No actual cuts took place. They didn't edit. Well, we're one to talk, right? We do appreciate the sponsorship. Yes, we truly appreciat-

EBW Eagleland Champion Benjamin walked down the hall when he ran into Officer Lainey Strong.

Benjamin: My lady love! Congratulations on your victory!

Officer Lainey Strong: It felt good. I need more of those. Really need to commit. I've been trying to live in two worlds, just like my Dad did when he was wrestling, but this is where I'd rather be, especially here with you.

Benjamin: It does my heart good to hear that. I needed a boost.

Officer Lainey Strong: It's not your fault that Team Xcite isn't winning the Bowl Events.

Benjamin: I am the Captain, I deserve the blame.

Officer Lainey Strong: I don't believe that. All the same, I heard that Boss M's is looking for you.

Benjamin: Then I shall find her.

Officer Lainey Strong: Be careful.

Benjamin: I'm sure it's fine. We'll speak professionally about the next steps to take. It should be fine.

One Minute Later...

Boss M's: Team Xcite losing once was unacceptable, but I let it slide because those two assholes caused it! Now we lose again, and I'm sensing a couple patterns here! I have a roster of DICKS, and YOU are not doing your job as CAPTAIN! Protect the team! Fight for the Brand! WIN AT ALL COSTS! I want that National Championship! We have the Team Rings, but Mac has the National Championship! NOT GOOD ENOUGH! I want it all! Xcite is the BEST WRESTLING BRAND ON EARTH! I want my office to reflect that, with all the accomplishments! Do I need to send the Sensations!? Will that work? Do I need to send the girls to do YOUR JOB!

Benjamin: Ah! Uh...NO! NO! I CAN DO THIS! NEXT TIME WE'RE UP! I WILL ACHIEVE VICTORY!

Boss M's: You had better. Danny and Mamoru have consequences coming their way. You'd better believe that. However next time, no matter what happens, the consequences are on YOU...and the consequences will NEVER be the same....wait.

Benjamin: What?

Boss M's: Huh? DON'T QUESTION ME! JUST GO! YOU'D BETTER WIN TONIGHT TOO! I DON'T WANT TO HAVE TO hear about 3'dPW parading around with one of our championship belts!

Benjamin: YES MAM!

Boss M's: THAT'S WHAT I WANT TO HEAR!

3. EBW CXJ Division Tag: Maseo Kurenai/Keisuke Nago vs. Seto Kaiba/Kiva
-The CXJ Division delivered exactly what it’s known for: sharp execution and high risk, plus a big mystery revealed, as Seto Kaiba revealed that he had aligned with Kiva for his official in ring return after spending weeks undermining his son and his old friend and rival Keisuke Nago. Nago had to hype up Maseo to take on his own father, but when he did he went for it. Kurenai and Nago showcased seamless teamwork early, cutting the ring in half and targeting Kiva’s midsection to neutralize his aerial advantage. Kaiba barked instructions from the apron, looking for openings, but Kiva wasn't listening. The would be King of the Night had his own strategy.

The momentum swung dramatically when Kaiba blind-tagged himself in and dropped Nago with a precise jumping knee. The match became increasingly technical, with counters layered upon counters. Nago nearly finished Kaiba with a bridging Hagen suplex that earned a dramatic two-and-three-quarters count.

The turning point came when Kiva escaped a corner trap and scaled the ropes in one fluid motion. With the crowd on their feet, he launched into a breathtaking Kiva Dive that wiped Nago out mid-ring. Kaiba knocked Kurenai off the apron, and Kiva stayed draped across Nago long enough for the referee to count the pin.
Winners: Seto Kaiba/Kiva[o] via Kiva Dive to Keisuke Nago -> Pin

Larry Grim: Kiva's comeback came at the expense of his son and Keisuke Nago! The Dark Emperor has returned from excursions in Anahauc and Edo, and has decided to embrace the inner Rudo it seems. I'm sure Fray Tiburon is disappointed. We can see Rey Dorado, Jaden Yuki, and new CXJ Champion Yami Yugi watching on. They all know it's only a matter of time before Kiva targets that CXJ Championship.

Backstage

Trevor Mach was standing backstage, pointing at his own head.

Trevor Mach: Luca Blight, I want you to think. I want you to think very clearly. Think back on a couple things. What are two things I never do. I never give up, I'm too stubborn, and I never let anyone get away with talking trash or making threats to my wife. The Boss can handle her own business, but it doesn't mean I'm not going to meddle anyways. I'm a meddler, it's what I do, and right now I'm meddling with you, I'm meddling wit the Army of Blight. You want to bring chaos and destruction. I can feel that, but I'm bringing a love of pro-wrestling, not a means to an end. I have been up and down the road, and up and down the cards, from one brand to the other. I've got a lot of years behind me, I've fought a lot of wars. Those matches are behind me. Those feuds are behind me, but I'm still here. I'm still standing. SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT! BOOSH!

4. EBW Eagleland Championship: Benjamin(c) vs. Gordy Knicker<3'dPW>
-Gordy came in with raw aggression, clearly looking to out work the champion. He cornered Benjamin early and hammered him with heavy forearms and shoulder drives, trying to break him down physically. Benjamin responded with veteran patience, absorbing the punishment and redirecting Gordy’s power into counters.

Midway through the match, Gordy planted Benjamin with a crushing slam that shook the ring and nearly ended the reign. The champion barely survived at two. The challenger grew frustrated, going for another big charge, and that was the mistake. Benjamin sidestepped, repositioned, and as Gordy turned around, he was split in half with a vicious Spear that drew a thunderous reaction from Kyoto. Benjamin hooked the leg tightly and secured the three-count to retain.
Winner: Benjamin via Spear -> Pin -> Title Defense!

Larry Grim: A valiant attempt by Gordy Knicker, who actually came out here by himself. No Sukajan Trio to back him up, but Captain Benjamin held his ground on this one and kept the Eagleland Championship!

5. Women's Lumberjill: Hotaru Tomoe vs. Queen Beryl
-With lumberjills surrounding the ring, this match had tension layered into every movement. Queen Beryl used her supposed dark authority to dominate early, tossing Hotaru across the ring and repeatedly threatening to throw her outside into the waiting field.

Hotaru relied on agility, slipping behind Beryl and targeting her arms to neutralize the strength advantage. The lumberjills became a factor when Beryl was dragged back into the ring after attempting to flee. The crowd roared as momentum shifted. Hotaru had a lot more allies on her side, and that played a big factor in how the Lumberjills reacted. Hotaru capitalized, grounding Beryl and methodically applying pressure before finally trapping her in the Rings of Saturn. Beryl struggled violently, but with the lumberjills closing off escape and nowhere to turn, she tapped out emphatically for a huge upset win for Hotaru Tomoe!
Winner: Hotaru Tomoe via Rings of Saturn -> Submission

Apple Kid: YES! YES! ALRIGHT!

Larry Grim: She did it! EBW Women's Champion Erica seems to be impressed as well, as she just watched the #1 Contender beat Queen Beryl clean with the Rings of Saturn. That's a devastating finisher, and she knows how to use it. An icy cold expression from the youthful trainee of the EBW Women's Tag Team Champions. Could we see total Sailor Sensation dominance?

Apple Kid: Where is Minako, and who is that weird looking Lumberjill?

Larry Grim: ...You...you serious?

?: EBW requires a change. It requires balance. It requires one who will steer it from the path to Hell.

-

Larry Grim: Well, I still don't know what that's about, it does feel ominous. However, now it's main event time, and that means we're about to find out who the EBW Champion has aligned with him to take on Trevor Mach, Bashin Dan, and Jammer. Who is going to be? This new team is...is....IS?!

Apple Kid: THE LEGAL LIMIT?!

Larry Grim: Preston Payne and Barry Dockett, the nefarious lawyers that took TUE by storm, and became the first ever TUE Tag Champions! They are carrying that history making moment with them into Xcite, and now, as members of the Army of Blight?!

Apple Kid: I guess he needs legal advice? I mean you've seen what he does.

Larry Grim: Indeed. Well this match just got cranked up. Xciters, it's the main event! Trevor Mach, Bashin Dan, and Jammer versus EBW Champion Luca Blight, and the Legal Limit! LET'S GO!

6. 6-Man Tag: Trevor Mach/Bashin Dan/Jammer vs. Luca Blight/Preston Payne/Barry Dockett
-The main event carried a big-fight feel from the introductions alone. Trevor and Luca locked eyes before the bell, and when they finally collided, it was explosive. Trevor’s speed clashed with Luca’s raw aggression, and neither man gave an inch.

Jammer brought brute force, leveling Barry Dockett with a crushing lariat, while Bashin Dan lit up Preston Payne with rapid-fire strikes. The pace escalated as all six men became involved. Luca nearly finished Trevor after a brutal running strike in the corner, but Jammer broke the pin at the last possible moment.

Chaos consumed the match. Barry grabbed a chair at ringside. Preston distracted the referee. Luca continued striking long after a rope break. The official’s warnings went ignored as the ring descended into disorder. When Luca’s side refused to comply with commands and illegal interference mounted, the referee called for the bell.

The crowd erupted in boos as the disqualification was announced, but the tension between the two teams remained unresolved, with Trevor standing tall while Luca seethed, championship belt raised defiantly.
Winners: Trevor Mach/Bashin Dan/Jammer via DQ

Larry Grim: The Army of Blight did damage, but Trevor and the Dan Club get the technical victory. Preston and Barry are arguing the decision, but they're going to have a hard time getting a referee to restart or overturn this one. Xciters, we are almost to Rumble City, so we'll see you next time for-

?

?: The time has come. The time for my return. The time for my becoming. It is once again time to walk the path.

Camilo Ortega: Walking the path of Heaven, I am the man who will rule everything.

Stephy Wyland: Hi there! Whoa! Calm down, Steve! I just smiled! What? The light reflected off my large what? Never mind, because we have an EBW World to cover! 3'dPW was eventful this week, and that has been driving up attendance and youtube traffic. Rince Vusso's crazy cavalcade is over as it turns out. The show kicked off with a Cabaret battle between rival clubs Velvet Riot and Nightshade. Nightshade brought in a wildcard for this one. I mean wild in a very literal sense. Rogue Miko!

Stephy Wyland: See? Crazy eyes! *shivers* She's...something. Ayame Nocturne was ready though. That's why she's the ace of Velvet Riot, but Rogue Miko wasn't playing fair and raked at her eyes, trying to ruin her good looks. A Tombstone Piledriver called the Nightshade Benediction gave Nightshade a victory over Velvet Riot. VBW's Vargas Wargrave has beef and a history with Dante Ward. We figured that out last week, when Ward went to defend the VBW Championship in their home turf. Today he took the face of 3'dPW and planted him into the mat, when he beat Curry Man with a War Driver. He made it clear on the microphone after that he did NOT want VBW and 3'dPW to have a merger, and he'd take back the VBW Championships that 3'dPW has by hook or by crook. 3'dPW not making a lot of friends in Threed. He made it clear that whatever beef he has with Ward, he also has with Lobster Man, and that played out in the next match. In classic Vusso fashion, a tag match was going to determine a singles title, as Lobster Man and Gordy Knicker took on EBW's Chad Salad and Misogynist Paul. Dante took out Gordy Knicker and attacked Lobster Man, telling him he owed him that and so much more. Chad Salad hit a Spinning Spinbuster called the Vinaigrette Vortex on Lobster Man to pin him and actually win a title. I'm sorry....Chad Salad is a champion? Chad Salad.....Chad Salad. He's not even a BIG BOY! *sigh* In the main event Robert Sandwich tried to get his family member Vito Panini to help him win the 3'dPW Championship against Dante Ward, but he was on his own, as Dante finished the Sandwich with a basic, but effective Powerbomb.

Stephy Wyland: The World is abuzz with the return of Camilo Ortega. His haunting reintroduction has everyone on their toes, even the Renegades of Havok. This arrival is a game changer. Where has he been? What are his plans going forward? We have no idea. We don't where he was when those packages were sent in. We don't know when we'll see him in person. Perfect timing, with Victory Explosion season in full swing. The grandest of the grand is closing in, but first we have Rumble City, and Rumble City shapes Victory Explosion! We have the first few confirmed participants. Astrid Rúnsdóttir made it clear she's in, while Bashin Dan and Cade Yaggis have thrown in their hats on the men's side of the things. Remember, Rumble City has two over the top rope Battle Royales, taking place in two connected rings, and the winners will go onto Victory Explosion TWENTY!!! Want to make history? Be in the main event of THAT Victory Explosion. IN THE DOME! We can also confirm that Sal Paradise has laid out a challenge to Jamie OD, a Last Man Standing match! That's a big match, that sees Sal Paradise wanting to oust Jamie OD from EBW once again, and put the monster back in a box. I don't know if what he said about Jamie OD is true or not, but why would Sal lie? Why would-

Stephy Wyland: AH!

Jamie OD: YES! Why would Sal lie? Why....would....Sal....lie? He killed me. HE KILLED ME! You think it's a metaphor? You think we're having a war of words? I was dead....but dead is just a word. It's so cold. Do you understand? Hell is cold. I'd rather burn. I HATE the cold. Do you think he intends to kill me again? Do you think he can? Can I die? I don't know. I just don't know. But is Sal a liar or am I the monster he claims I am? Do you hear that? Do you hear the screams? Do you hear what they say?

Stephy Wyland: ...Wh-what do they say?

Jamie OD: Never...mind....what. Sal, you challenged me. Let's see how far you're willing to go when people are watching. I accept.

Tack Angel was looking at an ad he featured in, when he was joined by his agent, Arliss Michaels.

Tack Angel: What IS this?

Arliss Michaels: It's your new ad! It's going to be all over the place!

Tack Angel: But I mean...what is it selling? What's the product?

Arliss Michaels: Uh...mozzarella sticks?

Tack Angel: Yeah but...like...what brand?

Arliss Michaels: Huh?

Tack Angel: What brand am I advertising?

Arliss Michaels: Does it matter? No, it doesn't really matter. Let THEM sell the product.

Tack Angel: Let WHO sell the product?

Arliss Michaels: Details. We got the check.

Tack Angel: Oh...well...I do love mozzarella sticks.

Arliss Michaels: Who doesn't?

Tack Angel: I bet Danny and Mamoru don't. Those....JERKS! If I see either one of them I'm going to kick their....BUTTS!

Arliss Michaels: What about that green haired woman? It's not good PR to have a mistress.

Tack Angel: I have NO idea who she is...I think. Something about her seems so...familiar.

Arliss Michaels: Well, I'd knock that off and deny everything.

Tack Angel: I have nothing to deny! I have done nothing with her!

Arliss Michaels: That's the spirit. Listen, we have you doing a recording for radio play concerning Rumble City.

Tack Angel: Oh right. Let's go.

Arliss Michaels: Right, let's take the elevato-

Arliss Michaels: Oh? Oh good point! Actually, I think that elevator is broken.

Tack Angel: ....I can hear you, Clem Fandango.

Jackie McOneEye's Celtic Pub

Alison Chains and Christy Angel walked back into the bar, looking around to make sure no one was trying to hang themselves.

Christy Angel: I think the coast is clear.

Alison Chains: Shouldn't you be getting ready for your match with Wendy?

Christy Angel: Normally you'd just ask me if I want to play some games or take strange substances. No, I wanted to make sure your "Dad" wasn't trying to kill himself! I felt bad about that. Poor guy.

Alison Chains: Lots of people around us are miserable these days. I heard that after we were here last, Jackie McOneEye lost his other eye.

Christy Angel: WHAT?! But we didn't do anything! D-die we?

Alison Chains: *shrugs*

Christy Angel: ...Add him to the list. We really need to squash some beef. Clear the air. Make things right. But wait, who is running the bar if Jackie is Jackie McNoEyes?

Alison Chains: I dunn-

Aloysius Minch: Look, I think we can be partners on this, and turn this bar around and make some money. And as we all know money is green.

Mr. Herb: Go ooon. You know how to make me listen. I am green and retired you know.

Aloysius Minch: Yes, and I know how to make you some more green. Great minds think alike.

Mr. Herb: Did you say green minds think alike? I'm green and retired.

Aloysius Minch: I'm looking for an angel investor here. We're talking ground floor innovation like you've never seen.

Mr. Herb: Well I am green and retired, so it does interest me.

Aloysius Minch: I just need a small investment of 1.4 Million dollars.

Mr. Herb: And you're saying it's a smart investment, because we can't lose money on it? Being green and retired in the process?

Aloysius Minch: The product sells itself, because people love to drink.

Mr. Herb: That's true, green and retired people love to drink, I can attest to that because I'm green and retired.

Aloysius Minch: I believe red and employed people love to drink too.

Mr. Herb: ...I'm not too familiar with what that's all about, because I'm green and retired.

Aloysius Minch: Of course. Let me worry about that part. What do you say?

Mr. Herb: I say we have a green and retired deal.

Aloysius Minch: Outstanding.

Alison Chains: What deal did you just make?

Aloysius Minch: Possible spawn, it's official that I and Mr. Herb are partners in buying this pub, and we're going to turn it into something very special...with YOU as the manager.

Alison Chains: What?

Aloysius Minch: It's part of the deal. He's a fan of yours. You apparently partied together.

Alison Chains: I don't recall that...or most of the last few years. It checks out though.

Aloysius Minch: He likes you. He's ready to hand me a big check...a literal big check. Do this for me?

Alison Chains: I guess?

Aloysius Minch: Outstanding. You are not a waste of my cum after all!

Christy Angel: Ew! Ew! EW!!! EEEEEWWW!!!! *gags* I guess we're doing this side plot now! *sigh*

Outside of Renegades Arena, Saturn City

A limo pulled up to the building, as Great Tiger came out, followed by the new Television Champion, Maximillion Monroe, the EBW Super Tag Team Champions RRR, Noah Jennings, and Hashim Al-Singh.

Great Tiger: Make way! Make way for Greed, peasants! What you're looking at is true wealth and fortune. You don't get that achieving the Eagleland dream, you get it from the brutal and relentless pursuit of the almighty dollar.

Maximillion Monroe: You know I made my first million when I was sixteen? I'll never be one of these fossils that doesn't have the juice. I make maximum millions, and I'm your NEW EBW Television Champion!

Noah Jennings: That's right! This guy gets it! This one understands what I've been saying for years. We're going to make a lot of money together.

Hashim Al-Singh: My recent losses have not hurt my stock portfolio, or my Scaraba oil assets. Remember that. People like us, we don't fail, and we'll use any means to ensure that success. We ARE Greed, and Greed is good.

Tommy Dukes: Welcome home to Renegade Arena! I'm Tommy Dukes, joined as always by my wife Nerma, and what we just saw was the newly formed Greed stable arriving via a limo. That's the classic Greed MO, but with Great Tiger leading the team instead of our own Havok Boss, Little Mac!

Nerma: I see a more brutal and heartless Greed than ever before, and that's insane when you realize the names of the Greed members in the past. This is an elite team, including a brand new member to the roster in Maximillion Monroe, who stole the EBW Television Championship from "Trigger" Cade Yaggis in his first match with the company. He's rich, he's shrewd, and with Noah Jennings as his manager, he definitely picked his spot. We'll see the fall out from that tonight though as Little Mac's "boys" as it were team up once again, a reunion for Cade Yaggis, the returning proud father Subculture, and Picky. They'll take on the all-gold trio of Monroe and RRR. That's not even our main event though!

Tommy Dukes: That's right! Tonight Dragon Shiryu and Boomtown will go head to head to see who gets to challenge Zyro Kurogane next for the World Championship. Zyro-K was given the night off to watch in the VIP section, and I think he's earned it after all the hard work he's put into making the World Championship feel as important as it should. The Super Champion will also be watching I'm sure, and did you see that he's scheduled for a non-title match at Rumble City? But against whomst've?

Nerma: That we don't know, but we might find out tonight. Someone must have thrown out a challenge, and Takumi Inui does not say no to a challenge. I mean sometimes in the past he had to be dragged kicking and screaming to help people out or play the hero, but that was just due to his own past, and the trauma that came along with it....or so I've heard.

Tommy Dukes: We're going to determine a #1 Contender to Val Dorado's Women's World Championship tonight as well, and we're also going to be opening the show with a heated 4-Way match up, but the match I'm most interested in, is between Christy Angel and Wendy Mustang.

Nerma: Yes, the Black Diamond Syndicate is all over this card, but that match is coming off a big singles win for Christy. She famously no showed her Women's World Championship title shot in order to pursue a team with Alison once again, but she's showing that if she really focuses and tries she could be ever bit the singles star her sister has been.

Tommy Dukes: I mean technically that's true. She could be literally the exact same singles star her sister is, but I think she takes after her Dad just a bit more than Christina, and that's put her on a different path.

Gamer Girlz Room

Christy Angel, Alison Chains, and Lindy Moseby were hard at work....hard at work playing video games that is or at least trying to.

Alison Chains: Is everything busted?

Christy Angel: I know right? This is annoying. It's not like Gaben's system, where we could just verify the integrity of the game file.

Lindy Moseby: The day after this airs, EPIC's stock goes doooown.

Christy Angel: Epic, you're going down! I'm not even trying to be mean, I know people work for that company, but come on! You'd better have plan B is all I'm saying.

Alison Chains: You will be living in your car, and we'll be coming for that too. The second you fall asleep, we'll be coming for your wheels and your engine.

Christy Angel: My system is WAY too loud right now. It's like they stuffed my muffler with a potato.

Lindy Moseby: They stufflered your muffler?

Alison Chains: Lindy, the rhyme was good, but Christy is going through a lot of grief over things right now.

Christy Angel: Yeah, that was me being vulnerable, but whatever.

Lindy Moseby: Ya know, I think if you reset it, it should help.

Alison Chains: Do you think any of this will be usable to air?

Christy Angel: No....no not at all. Considering that, you want to talk about this Alyosius Minch thing? I really think we should talk about it. Is he really your Dad or not?

Alison Chains: Dunno, but he got me a sweet gig.

Christy Angel: THIS...is a sweet gig. THIS! Running a bar? Not so sweet!

Alison Chains: Could be fun. Besides, he owes me. When I was a kid, I went to his house to see if he really was my dad. He said I was too fat to be a slut and tried to feed me pancakes with cocaine in them.

Christy Angel: ...I feel like Picky might need a hug.

Lindy Moseby: Don't you have a big match to get ready for, Christy?

Christy Angel: We say "get ready for" a lot, but what does that even mean? I'm hydrated, and I already have my gear on. What do I have to get ready for? Besides, I've got a mission first.

Lindy Moseby: ...Oh? Well I guess I could be doing my job by asking...what mission?

Christy Angel: I realized we have a lot of beef we need to squash, so I've invited a couple people over to deal with that.

*knock knock*

Christy Angel: Here is one of them now?

Jim Ponderosa: Hello? Hey there! Did you hear me knock? I know it can be hard to hear a knock from hands this small. It's weak and effeminate.

Christy Angel: Come on in here, lawyer guy. Alison has something she wants to say to you.

Alison Chains: I do?

Christy Angel: Yes. You do. The hands thing?

Alison Chains: Oh...OH! Oh...oh?

Christy Angel: About how they're NOT small?

Alison Chains: Right...right. That. Your hands...are not that small.

Jim Ponderosa: You're...joking right? Surely you are, and that's fine. Hands these small and useless deserve to be ragged on. Go ahead and mock them, call them useless. I tried to take a hammer to them last night. I thought the swelling might make them look bigger, but I chickened out. I'm a coward...a small handed coward.

Christy Angel: Ali, you really did a number on this guy!

Alison Chains: THEY'RE NOT SMALL!

*knock knock*

Christy Angel: That would be another one!

Richmond Stuart: He-hello.

Alison Chains: What is THAT thing?!

Christy Angel: Richmond Stuart. He words in the sub sub basement of EBW HQ.

Lindy Moseby: Oh! He was on that horrible island, right?

Christy Angel: What?! No! This guy was a very very successful businessman, and one of the more honest members of the Stuart family. My Mom was related to him, so I met him a lot and suggested he listen to a goth CD once and....well?

Richmond Stuart: ...My life has never been darker.

Alison Chains: Which is great though, because you're a goth, so you'd want that!

Christy Angel: No, that can't be right.

Richmond Stuart: I'm fine.

Christy Angel: You're trapped in a dark room all the time!

Richmond Stuart: Aren't you?

Christy Angel: I....well yes actually...huh...that's different though. You're goth, and I'm a GAMER.

Richmond Stuart: Oh.

Christy Angel: Look, I'm just really sorry. I didn't realize that I was going to have a negative effect on your life. I don't want this negativity lingering.

Richmond Stuart: Oh, we're fine.

Christy Angel: Yeah?

Richmond Stuart: Yep! Totally good.

Christy Angel: Oh wow! That's great! I feel better. This is working out great. Maybe I was overreacting about all of this.

*knock knock*

Christy Angel: Surely, that was the worst of-

Tad Blinko: Hey hey, Turkeys! Gobble gobble!

Christy Angel: Oh *bleep* I forgot about Tad Blinko.

Tad Blinko: Word is you two are squashing beef.

Alison Chains: We don't have beef with you?

Tad Blinko: You don't have beef with me? I was a priest before I got involved with you two!

Alison Chains: ...Oh yeah...all of that.

Christy Angel: Well, I don't know how to say sorry for-

Tad Blinko: Is that beef jerky?

Christy Angel: Yeah?

Tad Blinko: Can I have it?

Christy Angel: Sure?

Tad Blinko: Beef squashed!

Christy Angel: Yeah?

Tad Blinko: I'm very hungry. Dogs keep eating my food.

Christy Angel: Well alright! Beef squashed! This is going great!

*knock knock*

Christy Angel: Well who do we have ne-

Aloysius Minch: ...Is this the place?

Alison Chains: Oh, so THIS is why you wanted to talk about it.

Christy Angel: No? I did NOT invite him.

Aloysius Minch: I invited myself, and why shouldn't I? I should have people telling me they wronged me, because I've been wronged...by so many people. How DARE that bitch die and tell Picky he wasn't my kid! How DARE she give him the house! How DARE she stick me with that useless piece of shit, Pokey. He's only good for a kidney! I keep this knife with me, in case I ever see him again.

Christy Angel: You want to throw a knife at your son for his kidney? This is who we're in business with now? No, I'm not taking credit for this one. This guy is just an asshole. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go...and apparently get ready for my match, and by that I mean...just not be HERE right now.

Alison Chains: I'll join you.

Lindy Moseby: ....

Aloysius Minch: ....So...you single?

Lindy Moseby: While I have Daddy issues, I assure you, you're not my genre of man. Plus, I'm your daughter's age.

Aloysius Minch: That has never been an issue in the past. Now, what's this party all about? Anyone want to smoke some crack?

Tad Blinko: Right here! Me! Me!

EBW: Havok
Renegade Arena, Saturn City
ENT

1. 4-Way: Firebrand X vs. Dougie Mach vs. Amigo vs. Carter Grayson
-The opening bell hadn’t even stopped echoing before Dougie Mach and Amigo were already jawing at each other, leaving Carter to get blindsided by a flying Firebrand X missile dropkick that nearly sent him out of the ring. Havok wasted no time, and this was chaos from the first minute. Dougie tried to turn it into a Mach showcase, throwing rapid-fire strikes and nearly stealing it with a sudden roll-up on Carter, but Firebrand X kept re-entering like a house on fire.

Amigo stunned the crowd, going against his amateur roots with a corkscrew dive to the outside that wiped out everyone, and Carter nearly capitalized with a top-rope elbow that would’ve sealed it, if Firebrand hadn’t yanked the referee out mid-count. In the closing stretch, Dougie went for the Dynamic DDT, but Firebrand countered mid-move, spun him through, and planted him hard with the Fire Thunder Driver followed by the pin and the win.
Winner: Firebrand X via Fire Thunder Driver to Dougie Mach -> Pin

Tommy Dukes: Firebrand X with the win! Did you notice anything during the match?

Nerma: I noticed some intense action, and Firebrand continues to have a beef with Carter Grayson.

Tommy Dukes: Yeah, all of that is true, but did you see who was watching? Great Tiger.

Nerma: Oh? Oh! Oooooh.

Tommy Dukes: Yeah, exactly.

VIP Room

World Champion Zyro Kurogane and EBW Super Champion Takumi Inui were shown walking to the VIP Room to a huge ovation. As they reached the door, it was suddenly opened to reveal...

Hashim Al-Singh: That is as far as you go.

Zyro Kurogane: Excuse me? You not done mopping it up for us?

Hashim Al-Singh: Funny. You talk a lot, but Greed doesn't sweat you.

Zyro Kurogane: Oh I doubt that. Looking at you, you sweat a lot. I can smell you from here.

Hashim Al-Singh: ...Greed is using this VIP Room. We're using it here, and everywhere else we go from now on, because THAT is what we do.

Zyro Kurogane: Take up space where you're not wanted? Do go on.

Hashim Al-Singh: You might be the champs, but you don't have the money, and cash is king. You're both filth to me, just like the rest. A bunch of Renegade filth. You're probably wondering who challenged you, Inui.

Takumi Inui: ...I can guess.

Hashim Al-Singh: You'd be guessing currently.

Takumi Inui: Then I'll see you at Rumble City.

Hashim Al-Singh: That's it? No mouthiness? No grand standing? No jaw jacking like the jackass beside you?

Takumi Inui: ...I'll see you at Rumble City.

Zyro Kurogane: I'll see you right now, if you want.

Hashim Al-Singh: I have no time for you.

Zyro Kurogane: You'd better make time.

Hashim Al-Singh: ...If you want my time, it's gonna cost you.

Hashim slammed the door in Zyro Kurogane's face.

Zyro Kurogane: ...At least hang an air freshener in there!

2. Lady Renegades Singles: Christy Angel vs. Wendy Mustang
-A big match opportunity for Christy Angel, as she challenged the Women's World Tag Team Champion. Darkness Aoi made it clear that she was going to let Wendy handle this one on her own, which was just fine for the cowgirl brawler. They circled slowly before Wendy shot in with a waistlock takedown. Christy rolled through and trapped the arm immediately, twisting into a hammerlock and forcing Wendy to the mat. Wendy powered up and broke the hold with a stiff elbow to the face.

From there, it became a battle of leverage.

Wendy hit a heavy snap suplex and transitioned into a grounded crossface of her own. Christy clawed to the ropes, rolled outside, but Wendy followed and drove her into the apron with a body slam.

Back inside, Wendy connected with a spinebuster and floated into a cover. Two count.

Christy answered with a dragon screw leg whip, then a knee crusher that forced Wendy to fight from underneath. Angel locked in a standing armbar and yanked Wendy down hard into a Fujiwara armbar. Wendy powered up, hoisted Christy, and dropped her with a back suplex.

They traded forearms center ring. Christy ducked a lariat and caught Wendy in a crucifix pin attempt for a two count. Wendy stood, swung wildly, and Christy slipped behind into a rear waistlock. She dragged Wendy down and surprised her with the Cross Armbreaker, fully extended. The Renegades went wild as the former Women's World Champion was at the mercy of the gamer girl.

Wendy tried stacking her again, but Christy shifted her hips and hyperextended the elbow.

Tap out.
Winner: Christy Angel via Cross Armbreaker -> Submission

Nerma: She did it! She won! She has now beaten two of the three members of the Black Diamond Syndicate with that Cross Armbreaker! Where has THIS Christy been?!

Tommy Dukes: I guess squashing the beef made a difference? I hope everyone in the Gamer Girlz' Room knows that they made a big difference.

Gamer Girlz Room

Lindy Moseby quickly bailed as Aloysius insulted Jim Ponderosa and Richmond Stuart! In the fracas, Tad Blinko tried to grab at Aloysius's pipe, which landed on the couch and started a fire. In his anger, Aloysius threw his knife at Tad.

Tommy Dukes: I'm sure they were watching on and cheering for our favorite gamer girl!

Nerma: You know Cade was definitely watching, but he's got his own issues going on as well. Maximillion Monroe cost him the Television Championship, and he wants payback. Can he, Picky, and the new Dad Subculture take out Greed tonight and strike back at their growing ego? We're about to find out, but wait...it looks like Maximillion Monroe and Noah Jennings are coming out to the new Greed theme!

Noah Jennings: Silence, peons! The man that makes maximum millions is about to speak!

Maximillion Monroe: Did you expect Cade Yaggis to fight the good fight and shut up the new guy? You obviously don't know how the real world works, so let me break it down for you, so you poors can understand. I am rich. I am successful. I have what you don't. I have the juice, and when you have the juice, you can make anything happen! You're looking at a history maker! First match in EBW, and I am YOUR Television Champion! The King of your TV! Pads out the bank account nicely too, and luckily I bet on myself, because I always do! Now we're about to embarrass your favorites tonight, so pay close attention that, but first, I am going to give you the honor of seeing my new trophy! I hear they made a custom made title on the other brand, so why wouldn't I? Introducing Greed's version of the EBW Television Championship!

Maximillion Monroe: Spared NO expense!

3. 6-Man Tag: Cade Yaggis/Subculture/Picky vs. Maximillion Monroe/Rama Raju/Komaram Bheem
-This was six men trying to prove dominance, with three of the four members of Blood 4 Blood reuniting to take on Great Tiger's Greed. Little Mac could be seen watching this one personally from his office.

Cade and Monroe started slow, collar-and-elbow tie-up into a wristlock exchange. Monroe smirked and slapped Cade, big mistake. Cade answered with a double-leg takedown and drove forearms into Monroe’s face.

Rama entered and immediately changed the rhythm with vicious body kicks and sharp elbows. Picky took the worst of it, absorbing a vertical suplex and a knee drop to the ribs.

Bheem tagged in and hit a crushing shoulder block that turned Picky inside out. He followed with a delayed body slam and stood over him before tagging Rama back in.

Subculture tried to rally with short-arm clotheslines and hurting bombs, but Monroe cut him off with a chop block to the knee. Monroe attempted the Crown Jewel early, but Cade shoved him off balance.

The ring devolved into a fistfight.

Cade hit a spinebuster on Monroe. Bheem responded with a huge uranage on Subculture. Rama blindsided Cade with a running knee strike.

When the referee attempted to separate Rama and Picky, Monroe used Noah's wrist watch around his fist and struck Cade behind the official’s back. Rama shoved the referee during the confusion, and Greed's chaos led to the DQ.
Winners: Cade Yaggis/Subculture/Picky via DQ

Tommy Dukes: And the match has broken down! It's all out war! We're going to need some security down here! Great Tiger is grabbing a microphone!

Great Tiger: You see this, Little Mac? You see what happens with us? We don't lose! We achieve victory, by hook, by crook, OR you get this, and you'll get more of this each and every week if you don't recognize who we are, and what we are. I was always better than you Little Mac. You got LUCKY against me! You got LUCKY! Your luck has run OUT!

Nerma: Great Tiger has made this very personal against Little Mac.

Backstage

Outside of the Gamer Girlz Room, Christy and Alison were on the way back in, when they heard, arguing, screaming, fighting, and then looked on in shock as they saw smoke billowing from the room.

Christy Angel: HECK AND A HALF! WHAT'S GOING ON HERE?!

Alison Chains: Looks like Dad started a fire.

Christy Angel: They're definitely going to burn to death!

Alison Chains: No one's gonna burn to death! I'm pretty sure I saw a fire escape!

Christy Angel: Then why are you locking the door!?

Alison Chains: To give us time to get away!

Christy Angel: What?!

Alison Chains: Or would you rather stick around to deal with this?

Christy Angel: CHEESE IT!

4. Women's World #1 Contender: Diamond Rosa vs. Faris Kain
-The next match was between two Lady Renegades hungry for a title shot. This was two powerhouses testing limits. Faris immediately targeted the ribs with short knees in the clinch before tossing Rosa with a snap suplex. Rosa rolled to a knee and answered with a stiff elbow strike that echoed.

They traded body shots in the corner. Rosa hit a delayed vertical suplex and floated into a cover. Two.

With Jet Havok cheering for her on the outside, Faris responded with a release Hagen suplex. Rosa popped up, staggered, and charged, but Faris caught her in a bearhug and squeezed the air out of her lungs.

Rosa bit down on the pain and countered with repeated headbutts before slipping free and landing a short-arm lariat. Both women were slow to rise.

Faris attempted a second Hagen, but Rosa blocked, hooked both arms, and drove her down with the Crucifix Powerbomb, stacking the shoulders tightly.
Winner: Diamond Rosa via Crucifix Powerbomb -> Pin

Nerma: A very convincing win for Diamond Rosa, who will be getting the Women's World Championship match against Val Dorado. If she wins that match, all the gold belongs to the Black Diamond Syndicate, save for the big one, the SUPER one, but that might be targeted shortly after. We just saw the Women's World Championship contender decided, but now we're going to see the men fight it out to see who gets a shot at Zyro-K at Rumble City.

Tommy Dukes: That's right, in our main event match up, Samurai Ifrit's Dragon Shiryu takes on Boomtown, and I really really hope, we don't see Jamie OD.

Nerma: Look! Sal Paradise must be thinking what you're thinking, because the former Super Champion is out here WITH Dragon Shiryu! He's got Paradise to back him up against the Influencer. Let's see if it makes a difference as we-

Tommy Dukes: TAKE IT TO THE RING!

5. World Championship #1 Contender Bushido Rules: Dragon Shiryu vs. Boomtown
-Main event time, as Shiryu fought Boomtown for the right to face Zyro Kurogane for the World Championship. Shiryu opened with precise low kicks, targeting Boomtown’s thigh. Boomtown absorbed them and responded with a clubbing forearm and a snap powerslam.

Shiryu returned with a leg trip into a grounded armbar. Boomtown powered free and planted Shiryu with a spinebuster. Two count.

They traded suplexes. Shiryu connected with a belly-to-belly. Boomtown answered with a backbreaker across the knee.

Mid-match, Shiryu locked in a crossface and cranked hard. Boomtown crawled to the ropes. Break.

Boomtown began bending the rules, raking the eyes, loosening the turnbuckle pad. Shiryu maintained composure, landing a jumping knee strike and a heavy dragon kick that nearly ended it.

Shiryu lifted for a potential finishing maneuver, but Boomtown slipped behind and delivered a low blow while shielding the referee.

The crowd erupted into boos. Jamie OD rushed out and blindsided Sal Paradsie before rolling into the ring and smashing Shiryu with his solid metal mask.

Boomtown capitalized with Here Comes the BOOM!, driving Shiryu into the mat for the pin and the 1-2-3!
Winner: Boomtown via Here Comes the BOOM! -> Pin

Tommy Dukes: AH! IT'S JAMIE OD! RUN! HIDE! AH!!!

Nerma: Jamie OD just attacked Sal yet again, and helped Boomtown with his success. He continues to groom the Influencer that Sal looks at like a son, and that cost Shiryu another shot at the World Championship. We're going to get the grudge match of grudge matches instead. Zyro-K and Boomtown do NOT like each....like AT ALL! *sigh* What a wild ride it's been. We'll see you next week for the last stop before Rumble City! Goodnight!

Ninten: Ninten and Ana are back for another EBW World, and it's the TUE Edition! I tell ya, I've not seen Ness this happy in a looooong time. Getting TUE on the road to get back to the roots of EBW has been just what the doctor ordered. He's been retracing the steps of EBW from twenty years ago, but the problem is, that led them to Happy Happy Village.

Ana: Now, the Blue Blue Cult was dismantled long ago, but you know people. They LOVE cults! The Nu-Blue Cult has taken over, and painted the whole town blue again...just like how Threed was free of zombies...for like a couple weeks. We just all learned to lean into the weird. The Nu-Blue Cult challenged EBW's best in a 6-Man Tag. That saw TUE Champion Marco De Leon of Team 200X have to team up with TUE Tag Champions Ness and Arsene St. Marvelous! Before that though, we saw Tony Wonder and Abra Mago continue their winning ways, when they beat the Team 200X duo of Shark #1 and Sharkette. Ryu Terui thwarted a debuting and strange new member of the TUE roster...the uh...The Elongated Noise.

Ninten: So what's with this guy? Apparently, he likes to get up into people's faces and scream for a long time, until he would be physically stopped, hence why he showed up already covered in bandages. Ryu Terui didn't want to hear about any of that. The Elongated Noise screamed and wiggled his fingers in his face, so Terui promptly broke him down, finishing him off with the Justice Breaker. Goemon and Ebisumaru defeated the cool Capybara-san and the spicy llave practitioner Jerk Taco Man, whose girlfriend STILL doesn't understand wrestling, and doesn't want to be there. Ebisumaru landed on Jerk Taco Man with a Top Rope Splash for the pin. In the main event, the TUE Champion abandoned the tag champions early on, making it a 2-on-3 encounter, but Ness and Arsene fought against the odds, with Ness hitting the PK Rockin' for the pin. After that, he challenged Marco De Leon, saying that it was time he taught the "King" of Team 200X a lesson.

TUE: Blue is the Warmest Cult
Happy Happy Village

The Angel Residence

Tack paced back and forth in the living room. He sighed deeply, walked to a new spot and sighed deeply all over again. Makoto sat on the couch looking perplexed.

Makoto Angel: Tack, what is wrong?

Tack Angel: Nothing! Nothing at-

Makoto Angel: .....

Tack Angel: Alright...so maybe something is wrong. That woman with the green hair.

Makoto Angel: Tack, I know you didn't mean to kiss her...did you?

Tack Angel: I didn't mean to at all! She kissed ME!

Makoto Angel: I know. I'd REALLY like to find her and have a word about that, but you don't need to feel any blame. I know you're a good man, who wouldn't kiss another woman.

Tack Angel: ...Am I?

Makoto Angel: Huh?

Tack Angel: I've been getting this feeling, like I could be that guy. I could be someone who kisses a lot of women, indulges in dark fantasies. I've got that inside of me somewhere...or I did...and it went away...but I feel like it's coming back. Ever since I came into contact with her, and hearing things from Danny.

Makoto Angel: Danny is crazy. Nani....Nani...she uh...she went back to Edo, right?

Tack Angel: When? Why?

Makoto Angel: ...

Tack Angel: I just feel like I have massive chunks of time that aren't erased, but overlapped. It's crazy. You know, I don't remember Christy's childhood either.

Makoto Angel: What? Oh I'm so sorry, Tack. We weren't together then though. You were still with-

Tack Angel: Amy. *sigh*

Makoto Angel: I'm sorry.

Tack Angel: It's alright. I don't really understand what's happening, but I love you, and I love our life together.

Makoto Angel: I love you, Tack. We'll figure this out together.

Tack Angel: Right. Together.

Makoto Angel: Oh! I have something! I found it the other day! One of Christy's school plays.

Tack Angel: A school play? I don't even remember her going to school.

Makoto Angel: Well, we should check it out! Apparently your grandfather coached her on it.

Tack Angel: My grandfather?! The war veteran?!

Makoto Angel: Yeah!

Makoto happily put the disc in the tray as Tack watched on with cautious concern. The scene showed a bunch of children dressed as soldiers, with Christy playing their Captain.

Young Christy: Welcome to the suck, homos!

Tack Angel: Oh no.

Young Christy: When I asked for more marines, I meant ones that are ready to KILL! You sacks of shit don't look like you could play t-ball! Gutierrez, what the hell have you been eating? If your fat ass holds us up for one second, I'm sending your ass back to Edo, or wherever it is brown people come from!

Tack Angel: Oh nooo.

Young Christy: Steinberg...you're the first of your kind in my platoon, Steinberg. Keep that nose tucked in before it gets caught on a trip wire!

Tack Angel: I'm guessing this is why she had to leave school.

Young Christy: Reggie, put your reefer out, and shut off that ghetto music! I better not hear any jive talk from you! We're here to do one thing and one thing only! Kill those commie bastards! *throws a prop grenade*

The lights on the staged turned red, as children ran by covered in red streamers to symbolize fire.

Tack Angel: ...That's a nice touch.

Young Christy: War is ugly, but it is necessary to ensure a better world for our children!

Makoto Angel: Your grandfather was definitely inspiring her as a child.

Tack Angel: ...I'm just glad she grew out of it...and now she's behaving more normally.

Streets of Saturn City

Christy Angel and Alison Chains were in a panic as they looked around the streets, before finally finding who they were looking for.

Christy Angel: There he is! Tad! We finally found you!

Tad Blinko: You two...what do you want?

Alison Chains: Geez! We never get a warn reception from you. What's the problem?

Christy Angel: Yeah man, look at us, we need to-

Christy Angel: HOLY SHIT!

Alison Chains: AH! LOOK AWAY! LOOK AWAY!

Christy Angel: What happened to your face!

Tad Blinko: You want to know what happened? This happened when I came to "squash the beef"! I couldn't get to the fire escape fast enough, because HER father stabbed me!

Alison Chains: Huh? I don't think you were there. No one invited you.

Tad Blinko: I was there. Half my face burned off. I was definitely there.

Christy Angel: Why would we invite you looking like that? It would've scared everyone.

Tad Blinko: No, it happened while I was there. This was just a few days ago! How can you not reme- never mind! What do you want?

Christy Angel: Well, since everyone seems to think you were at this beef squashing sesh, we need you to sign this form that says we were NOT responsible for the fire.

Tad Blinko: Why would I do that? In fact, what is stopping me from suing you or EBW?

Alison Chains: I brought you beer! A whole sixer!

Tad Blinko: ...Alright, fine I'll sign the form, but I want the beers first. I still have my dignity!

The Angel Residence

Tack Angel: Yep, I think Christy turned out way better than she had any right to all things considered. I'm proud of her, and I'm proud of Christina, actually. I really need to go and see her and little Matty...whenever Subculture is on the road.

Makoto Angel: I hear they absolutely love that little bundle of joy.

Tack Angel: I'm just glad it's over, they had the child, and-

Makoto Angel: They're already talking about having another one!

Tack Angel: Oh yeah? That's...great...really...really great.

Tack Angel was busy doing his signature squats and watching a Lukie Yoga video, showcasing stretches he'd never be able to pull off with all of that BEEF! He decided to work on a weight machine to improve his torture rack. As he bent down to grab some weights, he heard some shuffling above him. He looked up, and found his head locked between two legs.

Tack Angel: What?! Wha?!

Nimbus Tenebris: Hello Tack.

Tack Angel: You! I still don't remember who you are, and quite frankly, I didn't appreciate the kiss either. I am married!

Nimbus Tenebris: That didn't stop you in the past.

Tack Angel: I have no idea what you're talking about.

Nimbus Tenebris: Call it a past life then. Whatever. It was still you, deep down. Reincarnation doesn't work like it does in the macroverse....where...well it doesn't work at all. In here, you're pulled from the moment of death and placed somewhere else, starting a brand new life...reborn...so to speak. I can't imagine everyone remembers these things, but I know it's in there....deep down.

Tack Angel: Lady, you're not making any sense.

Nimbus Tenebris: We were very close, you and I. Tackleton Angelsmythe.

Tack Angel: What did you-

Nimbus Tenebris: Star Prince.

Tack Angel: .....

Nimbus Tenebris: Did that stir anything? Maybe being where you are is stirring something else?

Tack Angel: ...Lady...if you knew me you'd know I don't like my ears covered.

Nimbus Tenebris: Oh? A joke?

Tack Angel: Do I look like I'm joking?

EBW HQ

While Tali was hard at work in preparation for Rumble City and beyond, the "Wild Hero" was taking a nap. He had to keep his shades on, as lately...the bright lights were really hurting his eyes. As he slept, he dreamed, dreamed of wild visions, watching his actions through his eyes, but he didn't remember the actions he was taking. He had a comforting vision, of himself flying through the sky, holding onto his beloved Aunt. He heard a song, and it brought him warmth. He suddenly snapped awake as Tali poked him in the cheek.

Tali Mach: Hey! Heeeey! Wake up! I'm done! We can go home! Heeey! I said we can- HEY!

Tali Mach: ...P-put me d-down...you brute.

Trevor Mach: It'll be faster this way!

Tali Mach: Don't look so satisfied that you can just scoop me up!

Trevor Mach: You're blushing.

Tali Mach: N-no I'm not.

Trevor Mach: You're cute when you blush.

Tali Mach: Shut up.

Trevor Mach: You're always cute though.

Tali Mach: Do you want a knuckle sandwich?

Trevor Mach: I might drop you.

Tali Mach: ...*sigh*

Trevor Mach: I love you. You know that, right?

Tali Mach: *blushing* You idiot. Where did that come from?

Trevor Mach: Hehe, just a thought I was having.

Tali Mach: Pleasant dreams?

Trevor Mach: Better. I got this song running through my head, and it gave me an idea.

Tali Mach: Oh?

The Mach Farm

Hours later, the Machs made it back to Smalltown and their farm. The mini-paradise for Trevor, who still struggled to view the sunset, as he kept his shades on. He carried Tali inside, as they spent some time with their children, before Trevor asked for Lucca and Robo to join him and Tali in the living room to carry out his idea.

Trevor Mach: Alright, it's been a while since I wrote out music. Does everyone have it?

Lucca: I sure do. How did you know I played piano?

Trevor Mach: Lucky guess?

Robo: Affirmative. I can play any instrument.

Lucca: Show off.

Tali Mach: I'm...not much of a singer.

Trevor Mach: Come on, baby. It's a duet, just for us.

Tali Mach: ...You said this song came to you in a dream?

Trevor Mach: The best dream.

Tali Mach: *sigh* Alright, let's give it a shot. Why not?

Citrus Suite Resort

The EBW Women's Champion made her way to the resort, actually getting requests for autographs. She signed a few before moving on. On her way inside, she caught a glimpse of the EBW Champion, Luca Blight. He grinned at her in a very uncomfortable way. It was enough to make her skin crawl. On her way inside, she was suddenly jumped by a hooded woman, as Luca Blight cackled in the distance. It was actually Makoto Angel that helped Erica up, as the EBW Women's Champion looked on in shock.

Erica: Who was that?! What happened?!

Makoto Angel: Whoa! Calm down. It was someone else. It wasn't me. I helped you.

Erica: ...Why? Why would you help me? We've been down this road before. You thought you could trust me once before.

Makoto Angel: It's not about trust. It just wasn't right to see you getting hurt without trying to help. That's just my style.

Erica: ...Thanks.

At the same time, a familiar face appeared on his motorbike, drawing a huge reaction from the Solandra fans. It was none other than...

EBW Super Champion, Takumi Inui, who signed some autographs as he went inside. The Lakitu followed him into the hallway, as he said to hi to other fans, before he bumped into...

Trevor Mach: ...Takumi.

Takumi Inui: Trevor.

Trevor Mach: Surprised to see you here.

Takumi Inui: I'm the EBW Super Champion. That encompasses all of EBW. Besides, you have an EBW Champion that you might just be wanting to have a word with me.

Trevor Mach: Luca Blight...he's starting something big. He's picking the fight of all fights, and I'm going to answer the call. You might just have a different EBW Champion wanting to have a word with you.

Takumi Inui: Is that right?

Trevor Mach: Oh yeah.

At that moment, they both turned to see EBW Champion Luca Blight staring at both of them, grinning smugly as he held the new meteor EBW Championship belt.

Takumi Inui: ...Nice belt.

Trevor Mach: Isn't it?

Larry Grim: Welcome to the Citrus Suite Resort in beautiful Solandra, where it's always nice and sunny. We're on our way back to the mainland from Edo, so you know we have to make a stop here for a heated installment of Xcite!

Apple Kid: We sure do, and that means I get to see Minako in a skimpy bathing suit...hehe...

Larry Grim: Oh course. Have you not seen her...in the nude yet by chance?

Apple Kid: Don't be silly! That's so far ahead in our relationship! We're at prolonged hand holding and cheek kissing mostly. It's everyman's dream!

Larry Grim: Is it? I'm genuinely asking. I have no basis for comparison. I have always been and always will be a skeleton man.

A dark rain cloud formed over Larry.

Apple Kid: Oh...I'm...sorry?

Larry Grim: It's fine. It'll all be over when I finally get to die at the end of time.

Apple Kid: ...Oh...*bleep*.

Larry Grim: Yeah. Tonight's show will see the final showdowns for Xcite before we had to Rumble City. We'll see who goes on to challenge for a title at Victory Explosion 20 for both the men and women, and we'll also see the first ever match up between EBW Champion Luca Blight and #1 Contender Trevor Mach. The Army of Blight added The Legal Limit to their ranks, and tonight the Army of Blight will take on a SUPER group! Trevor and Tack, THE MEGA DUDES, will team up with Dan Club! In the main event, a non-title rematch between Luca Blight and Jammer. We'll also see the EBW Women's Champion in action, even after she was attacked by someone backstage. She IS cleared to compete.

Apple Kid: This one intrigues me! We're going to see Maseo Kurenai take on his father, Kiva! It's happening, and it's happening here on Xcite! I expect a conclusive finish, or I'll eat my crocs!

Larry Grim: It all begins with an 8-Man Tag in the CXJ Division. NEW CXJ Champion Yami Yugi will lead the EBW Tag Champions Rise and Grind, and along with them, coming from TUE, is the hometown hero, Jerk Taco Man! They're taking on Seto Kaiba, Johnny Starbound, Jonas Silvermoon, and Hoodlum, and that's NOW!

Apple Kid: ...

Larry Grim: ....That's NOW!

Apple Kid: ...

Larry Grim: ...

Apple Kid: ...

Larry Grim: Why isn't it working? THAT'S NOOOOW!

EBW: Xcite
Citrus Suite Resort, Solandra
ENN

Larry Girm: Oh there it goes!

1. CXJ Division 8-Man Tag: Yami Yugi/Grind/Java Coffington/Jerk Taco Man vs. Seto Kaiba/Johnny Starbound/Jonas Silvermoon/Hoodlum
-The match began with Yami Yugi and Johnny Starbound circling before locking up. Yugi applied a side headlock, was pushed off the ropes, and returned with a shoulder tackle. Starbound responded with an arm drag and a dropkick that sent Yugi into the corner. Starbound tagged Kaiba, who entered with body shots and a snap suplex. Kaiba attempted an early cover for two.

Grind tagged in and absorbed a knee lift from Kaiba before countering a whip with a flying forearm. Grind delivered a scoop slam and tagged Java Coffington, who hit a running elbow drop. Kaiba rolled to his corner and tagged Jonas Silvermoon. Silvermoon connected with a spinning heel kick and a leg sweep for two.

The action broke down as Hoodlum entered illegally and stomped Coffington in the corner. Jerk Taco Man rushed in and clotheslined Hoodlum over the top rope. Yugi and Starbound exchanged strikes while Grind hit a spinebuster on Silvermoon. Kaiba delivered a jumping knee to Grind, and the ring filled with all eight competitors.

After order was restored, Coffington tagged Jerk Taco Man. Hoodlum was also tagged in. Hoodlum hit a running back elbow and a sidewalk slam for two. He attempted a powerbomb, but Jerk Taco Man slipped behind and hit a chop block. Jerk Taco Man followed with a fireman’s carry, transitioned into the Spicy Drop Supreme, driving Hoodlum down with a Michinoku Driver. He covered for the three count.
Winners: Yami Yugi/Grind/Java Coffington/Jerk Taco Man[o] via Spicy Drop Supreme (Fireman's Carry into Michinoku Driver) to Hoodlum -> Pin

Larry Grim: The hometown man with the win!

Apple Kid: And his girlfriend still doesn't look like she wants to be here, and seems outright embarrassed by wrestling.

Larry Grim: Oh! Xciters, I'm hearing that EBW Women's Champion Erica was on her way to the ring, but I think she is confronting who she thinks attacked her earlier!

Erica: YOU!

Ripper Jane: Huh? Eh? What? Me? What?

Erica: You attacked me! You wanted a fight? You can have one!

Ripper Jane: I didn't! I didn't do it!

Erica: You spend weeks at a time gone, and then you suddenly reappear on this show, where I got attacked! I have a bunch of people who should be attacking me, and I expect it, but you...what's your problem?!

Ripper Jane: I didn't do anything!

Hope Mach: *signing* She's right, Erica. She's been with me.

Erica: You would cover for her. You're the Women's Super Champion. Life has been cushy for you. You're worried that I'll challenge you, and you send your little pet after me. That's bold, Hope. That's bold of you.

Hope Mach: *signing* It didn't happen. She's not my pet. I don't mind if you challenge me.

Erica: ...It's funny that you two pal around as much as you do. Ripper Jane has tasted the same darkness I have. She came out the other side...well...what you see before you...but I survived it. If I were more...pathetic...would you be my friend?

Hope Mach: *signing* I was raised to forgive.

Ripper Jane: That's right! Even though I tried to kill her, tried to kill her Mom, slept with her Dad, and-

Hope Mach: *signing* I was raised to forgive!

Ripper Jane: Oh. Right. Sorry.

Erica: ...Trust...I don't have it. It doesn't exist in my world, but I look in your eyes, and I'm not seeing a liar. Fine. I have a match to attend to, a Neon Valkyrie to humble. Kindly stay out of my way if you want to keep the peace.

Hope Mach: *signing* Fine by me.

Ripper Jane: ...I didn't mean to bring up your Dad taking me to pound town, I just-

Hope Mach: *signing* You really have to never bring that up again. Please.

Ripper Jane: Right. Sorry. Sorry!

Hope Mach: *looks at the camera signing* I wonder if this is what Christy has to deal with.

2. Women's Non-Title Singles: Erica vs. Astrid Rúnsdóttir
-They locked up immediately, with Astrid pushing Erica into the corner. The referee forced a clean break. Erica answered with a waist lock takedown and a grounded headlock. The Neon Valkyrie powered up and hit a back suplex. She followed with a short-arm clothesline for two.

Astrid applied a front facelock and hit a vertical suplex. Erica rolled outside to regroup. Astrid followed and drove her into the barricade. Back inside, Erica avoided a splash in the corner and hit a step-up knee strike. She connected with a snap DDT for two.

Erica attempted a springboard crossbody, but Astrid caught her and delivered a fallaway slam. Astrid signaled for a powerbomb, but Erica countered into a hurricanrana. Both women rose and exchanged forearms in the center. Astrid hit a spinning backfist. Erica answered with a thrust kick.

Suddenly, the masked person from earlier jumped the guard rail and attacked Erica and Astrid both. The referee immediately ruled it a No Contest.
Winner: No Contest

After the match, the masked attacker pulled her mask off to reveal-

Larry Grim: TRACY! IT'S THE WORLD'S VILLAIN HERSELF! Tracy just attacked the EBW Women's Champion for the second time tonight!

Apple Kid: She's so erratic! You never know what she's going to do! The last time we saw her, she was trying to appeal to both Trevor and Boss M's! Now she's attacking Erica?! She wants a war with the EBW Women's Champion!

Larry Grim: Well, I guess Ripper Jane really didn't do it after all!

Apple Kid: You still thought she did?

Larry Grim: She's covered in blood!

Apple Kid: Isn't she always?

Larry Grim: I guess that's true. Well buckle up Xciters, because up next it's a dream team scenario, as the MEGA DUDES reunite with Dan Club, as they take on the Army of Blight!

Mega Dudes Locker Room

Tack Angel was doing some of his iconic signature squats as he prepared to join his Mega Dudes partner for the big match, but as he opened the door, he was pushed back into the room, but a familiar green haired beauty.

Tack Angel: You again?! I need you to leave me alone. I have a match to get to, and I don't need to be dealing with vague and nebulous green haired-

Nimbus Tenebrae: Vague and nebulous? You need more from me? Lover?

Tack Angel: I don't understand what you're-

Nimbus Tenebrae: Shhhh.

Tack Angel: What are you- Uhhh...

3. 8-Man Tag: Trevor Mach/~~Tack Angel~~/Bashin Dan/Benjamin vs. Troy/Snakebite/Preston Payne/Barry Dockett
-The next match was set to be historic, but it was immediately fraught with controversy, and Tack Angel didn't make it out for the match, turning it into a 4-on-3 encounter against the Army of Blight. Benjamin and Snakebite started. Benjamin hit a series of arm drags and a dropkick. Snakebite responded with a knee to the midsection and tagged Preston Payne. Payne grounded Benjamin with a chinlock before tagging Troy. Troy delivered a delayed vertical suplex and covered for two.

Trevor Mach tagged in and exchanged forearms with Troy. Mach hit a running shoulder block and Trevorplex! for two. Troy rolled to his corner and tagged Barry Dockett. Dockett delivered a backbreaker and tagged Snakebite, who hit a leg drop.

Trevor cleaned house with clotheslines and a running knee strike. Bashin Dan followed with a Hagen suplex on Dockett. Chaos broke out as all seven men entered the ring. Payne struck Benjamin with a discus elbow. Mach hit a flying forearm on Snakebite.

Benji climbed the ropes, but Troy cut him off with a right hand. Payne tagged in while Troy hit a top-rope superplex on Mach. As he tried to get to his feet, and as the ref tried to restore order, Luca Blight ran in and blasted him in the head with the EBW Championship. Payne waited for a now bloody Mach to stand and delivered The Verdict, driving him down to the mat. Payne covered for the three count in a huge upset.
Winners: Troy/Snakebite/Preston Payne[o]/Barry Dockett via The Verdict to Trevor Mach -> Pin

Larry Grim: Whoa! The EBW Champion literally drew first blood against the #1 Contender! He just busted open Trevor Mach, and cost him the match!

Apple Kid: Preston Payne with a HUGE upset win there! He's wanting us to sign a legal affidavit about the legitimacy of the win too. I'm not signing that.

Larry Grim: Me either. *sigh*

Apple Kid: The Army of Blight are really living this one up, they scored a big win, but the big question is where is Tack?

Backstage

Trevor was helped to the back by Benjamin and Dan, when he saw Tack wandering in the hallway, with Makoto there trying to get his attention.

Trevor Mach: Tack? Where were you, buddy?

Tack Angel: Huh? What?

Makoto Angel: I've been trying to get him to go out there, but he's just been staring and wandering.

Trevor Mach: You alright?

Tack Angel: Oh...oh no...did I miss it? Oh, I let you down. I'm sorry.

Trevor Mach: Don't apologize, I'm worried about you. What happened, big guy?

Tack Angel: She...she got into my head. She showed me things, Trevor. She showed me things. It was like another world...where I was King. What do you make of that?

Trevor Mach: ...Tack, I need you to listen to me. Don't let her get into your head. The past is in the past, and you got a clean break from it. Leave it there. Let it go.

Tack Angel: ...I don't understand. Makoto? Makoto, I'm so sorry. She kissed me again.

Makoto Angel: I noticed. It occurs to me she hasn't even had a match yet! Maybe I should be her first.

Tack Angel: ...Not now boner.

Trevor Mach: Oh come on, dude!

Tack Angel: It's got a mind of its own.

Makoto Angel: *blushes*

Trevor Mach: *sigh* He's fine. He's fine, everybody! He's fine.

4. CXJ Division Singles: Maseo Kurenai vs. Kiva
-The next match saw Maseo Kurenai facing off with his father Kiva. Kiva had been an active obstacle for his son and Keisuke Nago, but t he full reaons why were still a mystery, other than what we'd been told about him embracing his Fangire roots, whatever that means. They began cautiously, trading wrist control. Kiva hit a low dropkick to the knee and followed with a snapmare and kick to the back. Maseo rolled away and answered with a spinning back elbow. Maseo applied a hammerlock and drove Kiva shoulder-first into the turnbuckle.

Kiva responded with a springboard forearm and a running meteora in the corner for two. Kiva attempted a tilt-a-whirl DDT, but Maseo countered into a backbreaker. Maseo followed with a dragon screw leg whip and targeted the knee with repeated stomps.

Kiva rolled to the outside to recover. Maseo pursued and drove him into the ring apron. Back inside, Maseo applied a single-leg crab. Kiva crawled to the ropes and forced a break. Kiva attempted a top-rope crossbody, but Maseo moved. Kiva stepped it out, and began to out work his song, which seemed to make him angrier. He smashed Maseo's face into the turnbuckle and left him laying on the mat as he rolled out of the ring.

The referee began the count. Kiva remained on the outside, and walked away, brushing past Keisuke Nago. He failed to return before the ten count. Maseo Kurenai "won" by count out.
Winner: Maseo Kurenai via Count Out

Larry Grim: Where is he going!?

Apple Kid: I just lost a bet...I have to....I have to eat my crocs now.

Larry Grim: I don't think anyone is going to hold you to- oh he's doing it. He's eating his crocs. Folks, we saw the EBW Super Champion earlier, and now he's watching on, as he head to our main event. Jammer wants another shot at Luca Blight, and he's going to get it. LET'S GO!

Apple Kid: Om nom nom nom.

Larry Grim: How is it?

Apple Kid: ...Spongey.

5. Non-Title Singles: Luca Blight vs. Jammer
-Main event time, as the blood thirsty tyrant and EBW Champion battled the Slam Master in a big rematch. Luca charged at the bell and hit a heavy lariat. He followed with repeated stomps and a snap power slam. Jammer tried to respond with forearm strikes, but Luca answered with a knee lift and a back suplex. Luca applied a grounded choke until the referee forced a break.

Jammer connected with a desperation dropkick and a running bulldog for two. He attempted a second rope elbow drop, but Luca rolled aside. Luca delivered a headbutt and a short-arm clothesline. He followed with a gutwrench suplex. The Legal Limit tried to argue with the ref, and this allowed Luca low blow Jammer before biting into his forehead and throwing him to the mat.

Jammer tried to escape to the ropes, but Luca dragged him back to center and hit a series of body shots. Luca lifted Jammer and delivered Boar’s Execution, driving him down hard. He hooked the leg and secured the pinfall.
Winner: Luca Blight via Boar's Execution -> Pin

Larry Grim: Jammer was cheated out of a proper rematch! The Army of Blight are just playing the role of spoiler tonight up and down!

Apple Kid: Jammer get out of there!

Larry Grim: Luca is laughing like a mad man! He's stomping away, but look! Here comes Dan and Benjamin, but they're being held off by The Legal Limit! HERE COMES TREVOR!

Apple Kid: Trevor is coming back out!

Trevor Mach ran out to quickly pull Jammer out of the ring. He rolled in himself and got into the face of the EBW Champion.

Luca Blight: Do you see? Do you see what I do to little piggies. I slaughter them. That's what I do. That's what I've ALWAYS done! That's what brought me here, to capture this belt, and place it between the two of us. I want to take your head.

Trevor Mach: I prefer to keep it where it is, but I have no problem getting in this ring with you, and having it out. Never been afraid to do that. I have too much to live for? It compels me to fight harder. These people you call piggies are warriors, just like us. They could beat you, if they understood what makes you tick. I do. I know what drives you. It goes beyond this ring, and beyond competition. It's where I was heading. The call of the void, right? Corruption is tempting, but I'm on the right track. I'm aiming higher. I'm fighting for a better cause, and that cause is love. Love of my God, my family, this sport, and these people. I love wrestling. You love war.

Luca Blight: You think you're the first one to play hero with me? I've slaughtered heroes in my wake. You're not the first one, you're just the next one. I humbled the "Dangerous Player". I disgraced the "Knight". I deflated the "Baller". I've done everything I said I would do, and I'll do it again, when I say that I will leave you in a bloody pile on the mat, and I will raise this trophy, knowing that I beat you. It won't be the crowning achievement of my life or anything though. You're nothing special. Just another would be hero. But...when you're out of the picture, I might just take that wife of yours.

Trevor Mach: ...You might not be afraid of me...but she's got claws. The Dan Club boys are some of the best that have ever stepped foot in the ring. They're not kids anymore...they're veterans...they're champions through and through. I just think that this one...this win...wsa meant for me...and I'm going to take it. I'm going to be the one to humble you, because I choose to do so. I'm leaning into who I am. I think after twenty years, I've earned this...and I'm going to take it. It won't be the crowning achievement of my life or anything though. You're nothing special. Just another would be tyrant.

Luca Blight: Funny. Very amusing. I want to rip your throat out right now.

Trevor Mach: Go for it.

Luca Blight: ...Rumble City....I will see you...in Hell.

Trevor Mach: I'll be the judge of that.

-

Camilo Ortega: The world is loud with people who shout, beg, demand, and fight for attention, power, and validation, yet when the noise fades and silence remains, truth reveals itself. The world does not need fury, ego, or chaos but guidance rooted in compassion without weakness, strength without cruelty, and authority without corruption. I do not need to raise my voice and I do not boast because I do not question who I am. I walk a higher path, not because I claim divinity but because I understand responsibility, and I calmly declare that EBW needs me not for spectacle or noise but for order because the company drifts between ambition and arrogance and between talent and turmoil, and when men fight for crowns someone must be worthy to wear one. Walking the Path of Heaven, I'll be the one to rule over everything. Not because I want it, but because you need it.

Machismo · 3/01/2026 2:11 am

Ted Pettentool: The Toolbox is back again, baby, cause it's EBW World, 3'dPW had a show, and we've got some air time to kill! 3'dPW continues to make waves in Threed, as Rince Vusso somehow nabbed up what is quickly becoming the most sought after plot of land in the whole city. They don't want the Wrestle Zone specifically, I think they want to bulldoze it and build something on it, but you get the idea. We found out that 3'dPW and VBW Champion Dante Ward took the week off in an attempt to get Lobster Man a roof over his head. From what I can figure out, Lobster Man might have been a mentor to Dante growing up. I know a lot of people were big fans of Lobster Man and his legendary team with Little Mac, Master Lu, and Dig Dug. Rince Vusso wanted to do something to make up for the loss of two his biggest stars for the week, so he got his lawyer with the small hands to take care of a star in need.

Saturn City Penitentiary

Prison Guard: Stand back, convicts. The fish is free to go.

Big Chugga Chungus: You fellas all a lot of growing up to do, I'll tell ya that! Ridiculous! Completely ridiculous! Can you believe these characters? Way out of line! Way out of line! I have a good mind to go to the warden about this! You know what hurts the most, is the lack of respect. Ya know, that's what hurts the most. Except for...except for the other thing. That hurt the most, but the lack of respect hurts the second most. Ridiculous.

Big Chugga Chungus limped out of the prison, where he was met by Jim Ponderosa.

Big Chugga Chungus: Thank you so much for getting me out of there!

Jim Ponderosa: Please, don't try and shake my hands. Your hands are enormous. It'll just make me feel inferior.

Big Chugga Chungus: ...That's how I feel when I look down to pee...it also burns too. *sigh* How did you get me out of there?

Jim Ponderosa: Well, we got the stalking charge dropped.

Big Chugga Chungus: But I was also all over the emails connected to that island. You know the one.

Jim Ponderosa: Yes, but I know you weren't on the island, and I was able to prove it.

Big Chugga Chungus: How?

Jim Ponderosa: You would have been the only person who had gone to the island to leave still a virgin.

Big Chugga Chungus: Great point! Sad points...absolutely dark...and dire...but great point!

Jim Ponderosa: How bad was it in there?

Big Chugga Chungus: It wasn't easy, but I survived by joining the Saturn Supremacists. BOinG Heil!

Jim Ponderosa: ...I see. Well, I hope you're in the mood for "Salad".

Big Chugga Chungus: For the last time, I don't want to toss the salad!

Jim Ponderosa: ...You don't want to take on Chad Salad for the Big Boy Championship?

Big Chugga Chungus: Oh that?! Yeah, I'll do that.

-

Ted Pettentool: So the show goes on for 3'dPW, but the results were very very mixed. Vargas Wargrave of VBW returned and defeated Gordy Knicker with his War Driver, and once again stated that VBW isn't merging with 3'dPW, and that he's got unfinished business with Dante Ward and Lobster Man. The other two members of the Sukajan Trio were bested as well, when Andrei Volkov and Silas Vane of Cold Blood Union bested them. Andrei, a former MMA fighter, tapped out Johnny with an ankle lock. Velvet Riot continues to be a highlight of 3'dPW, and a big draw for big money businessmen who drink and party with them during the shows, BUT in the ring they suffered another defeat against Nightshade, as Rogue Miko and Champagne Vice beat Ayame Nocturne and Hana Ironveil, when Ironveil fell to the Nightshade Benediction. In the main event, Hell froze over, which according to Jamie OD is just the natural state. Big Chugga Chungus actually beat someone....CLEANLY! It almost seemed like it was on purpose too. Chad Salad seemed to knock himself out trying to knock down Chungus, and when Big Chugga tried to go to the top rope, he simply slipped and fell onto Chad Salad, but it ALMOST looked intentional as the ref count the 1-2-3. Big Chugga Chungus is the NEW 3'dPW Big Boy Champion! Things were really looking up for him.

4. 3'dPW Big Boy Championship: Chad Salad(c)<EBW> vs. Big Chugga Chungus
Winner: Big Chugga Chungus via Top Rope Splash -> Pin -> NEW 3'dPW Big Boy Champion!

Ted Pettentool: I SAY looking up past tense, because he was later caught in the dressing room of Velvet Riot, smelling their undergarments and well...

Ted Pettentool: He had to get bailed out again. A restraining order may be on the table, and Vusso is having to throw out about a hundred "bros" to get the Madame to continue to let her girls work with 3'dPW. *sigh* We have such lows that we hit in EBW land, but we also have highs. We still do! Always keep your head up! Always look to the light! Life is a comedy. You just have to laugh at it sometimes. We always have hope in this world. In fact, we have two beacons of hope joining EBW very soon. Two heroic figures that will be making their way to us very soon. The first one is...

Ted Pettentool: Toha Yamaji, known better as Jiraiya, a member of a secretive ninja clan several generations old, who is coming to bring his fast striking style to EBW! BUT...he's not alone. He's got a partner coming with him! That man is none of than....

Ted Pettentool: Mobile Cop Jiban! That's the code name for Edo officer Naoto Tamura, was went through a special..."program" of sorts to become a defender of law and order, and he's bringing it to the ring! Say, you think that guy's ever met one of the Kamen Riders? How about Ultrawoman Talius? Maybe Arremer X? *leans forward and opens hands* We live in a crazy world!

Producer Steve: *sigh* They just...DO THINGS...and no one stops them. They just DO THINGS!

Nerma: Welcome to the streets of River City! We're here on the eve of Rumble City, and what the hell was that?

Tommy Dukes: Christy wanted to sing?

Nerma: ...Well alright then! Can't fault her...I suppose. Well Renegades, we're here in town to get ready for Rumble City, but boy do we have a show for you tonight! You know that Little Mac is favoring big matches and top competition over flooding the roster card obsessed men. That's just how we roll, and tonight he's putting teams to the test. We're opening the show with Jet Havok, Samurai Ifrit, The Mach Cousins, and Amigo and Firebrand X all facing off, with the winners going on to face BoomKick! in the main event for the World Tag Team Championships! Four amazing teams there. Amigo and Firebrand X are two wild cards right now, so it makes sense to put them together. I wonder if their will be able to mesh for this.

Tommy Dukes: After that we'll see Darkness Aoi take on Alison Chains in singles action, Carter Grayson will face off with Jeff Andonuts, and then Little Mac will lead his "boys" into battle, as he teams with Cade Yaggis, Subculture, and Picky against GREEEEEEED!

Nerma: Then the main event, like we said, and I have to wonder if River City can contain the crazed violence of Jamie OD, who has me on edge at all times, I'm not going to lie. He seems to relish the reputation Sal has given him, especially because it can't be proven, and he seems to know that.

Tommy Dukes: Which is ironic cause he claims Sal Paradise killed him, and you can't prove that either....given he's....well he's here. Not a zombie either. I don't smell it on him. He does give off an unnatural coolness I've heard though. Maybe just a low body temperature. Nerma is like that, and she steals my blankets all the time.

Nerma: YOU'RE THE BLANKET HOG! *clears throat* Well, how about we get right into it, shall we? We're all killer, no filler, except for musical interludes apparently.

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

EBW: Havok
River City Streets, River City
ENT

1. World Tag #1 Contenders: Jackson Kain/Degrees vs. Zyro Kurogane/Dragon Shiryu vs. Amigo/Firebrand X vs. Derek Mach/Dougie Mach
-The match began with all eight men circling before collapsing into immediate chaos. Jackson Kain and Amigo exchanged forearms near the ropes while Derek Mach drove Firebrand X backward into the corner with repeated shoulder thrusts. Degrees sprinted across the ring and delivered a sharp dropkick to Dragon Shiryu that sent him through the middle rope to the outside. Zyro Kurogane intercepted Degrees with a spinning back elbow and secured a tight waistlock before driving him to the mat with a release German suplex.

Dougie Mach slid into the ring and targeted Zyro’s knee with a low dropkick before following with a standing moonsault for a two count that Firebrand X broke up at the last second. Firebrand grabbed Dougie by the wrist and snapped him into a short-arm lariat before tagging in Amigo, who climbed to the second rope and connected with a diving crossbody on Zyro. Jackson Kain pulled Amigo off and delivered a snap powerslam before settling into a grounded headlock to slow the tempo.

Dragon Shiryu re-entered the match and began striking with sharp mid-kicks to Kain’s ribs. He lifted Kain into a delayed vertical suplex, holding him suspended before dropping him flat on his back. Derek Mach responded with a running clothesline to Shiryu and followed with a heavy spinebuster that shook the canvas. Degrees tagged himself in and leapt from the apron with a springboard Dynamic DDT on Firebrand X, rolling through into a standing dropkick that sent Firebrand to the floor.

The finish unfolded when Degrees attempted another springboard attack, but Zyro stepped forward and caught him in mid-air. Zyro rotated him and shoved him chest-first into the turnbuckles. Shiryu stepped in, trapped Degrees’ arms, and executed a tight, high-angle Dragon Suplex that folded him onto the back of his neck and shoulders. Shiryu bridged cleanly while Zyro cut off interference with a running knee to Jackson Kain.
Winners: Zyro Kurogane/Dragon Shiryu[o] via Dragon Suplex to Degrees -> Pin

Tommy Dukes: WOW! What a way to kick off the show! Dragon Shiryu with the pin, and that means Samurai Ifrit move onto the main event! They are the former World Tag Team Champions, and Zyro-K is currently on a roll as THE World Champion! He has a chance to hold two titles after tonight!

Nerma: Let's not get ahead of ourselves! They just went through a war and now they have to take on BoomKick! not long from now. They were very impressive here though, and I'm sure our EBW Super Champion Takumi Inui is watching from Solandra, and smiling as his stablemates advance to the big title match.

Tommy Dukes: Speaking of Takumi Inui, Hashim Al-Singh had THIS to say about his Rumble City opponent.

Backstage

Hashim Al-Singh: Takumi Inui… you walk around this company like you represent honor. Like you represent tradition. Like you represent some sacred standard of righteousness. But let me explain something to you. Honor doesn’t pay. Tradition doesn’t build empires. Righteousness doesn’t put gold around your waist. Value does. Greed understands value. And they understand mine. You see, Takumi… you come from Edo. A country that smiles at the world and talks about peace. Prosperity. Harmony. You preach about discipline and unity and respect. And yet Edo banned my beliefs. Edo pushed aside my people. Edo decided what was acceptable and what wasn’t. Edo decided who belonged and who didn’t. You call it policy. I call it fear. You want to talk about prosperity? You want to talk about peace? Let me tell you something that nobody in your perfect little homeland wants to admit.Peace and prosperity do not happen by accident. They happen because someone benefits. They happen because someone holds power. And it is an absolute coincidence… an absolute coincidence… that Edo rose into prosperity after suppressing the voices of people like me. You stand there wrapped in your nation’s pride...you stand there holding the EBW Super Championship and you expect me to bow to it. You expect me to respect it. I respect power. And Greed? Greed respects power. They looked at me and they saw worth. They saw strength. They saw a man who understands that if you have value, you should be allowed to go anywhere. Do anything. Take whatever you want. No borders. No restrictions. No moral leash. I will make you pay, because Greed doesn't pay. Greed collects, and I'm going to collect on your ass!

-

Nerma: Well, he's not a big fan of Takumi OR Edo right now it seems.

Tommy Dukes: I'm personally on Team Edo on this one.

Nerma: We're supposed to be non-biased....but yeah...yeah.

Tommy Dukes: It's time for the Lady Renegades to lock up next. The story for weeks now has been the back and forth between the Gamer Girlz and the Black Diamond Syndicate. Alison Chains wants a piece of the Black Diamond matriarch, and she's going to get it, NEXT!

2. Lady Renegades Singles: Darkness Aoi vs. Alison Chains
-Alison opened the match by targeting Aoi’s left arm, snapping it over her shoulder and dragging her down into a cross armbreaker attempt, as she tried to replicate the move's successful win rate with Christy. Aoi clasped her hands and rolled through to relieve pressure, but Alison maintained control by transitioning into a seated Fujiwara armbar. Aoi reached the ropes with her foot and forced a break.

Alison's "partial" sobriety had her wrestling strategically, as she continued isolating the arm, pulling Aoi into a wristlock and driving repeated knees into the shoulder joint. She attempted a northern lights suplex, but Aoi blocked it and drove her head forward into Alison’s jaw before countering with a snap vertical suplex. Aoi followed with a stiff roundhouse kick to the thigh and a spinning back kick to the ribs that forced Alison backward.

Alison rallied with a sudden jawbreaker and lifted Aoi into a swinging neckbreaker for a two count. She climbed the ropes and launched herself with a flying forearm, but Aoi sidestepped and delivered a sharp penalty kick to Alison’s spine as she rose. Aoi lifted her with both hands, pulled her inward, and drove her down with the Darkness Bomber, snapping Alison backward on impact.
Winner: Darkness Aoi via Darkness Bomber -> Pin

Nerma: Darkness Aoi with the clean win! She has changed her tactics recently. She hasn't been cutting corners. She has asserted herself as an unstoppable force in the Lady Renegades division.

Tommy Dukes: A well fought match to be sure. In just a few short moments, we're going to see Jet Havok's latest attempt to recruit Carter Grayson, with Jeff Andonuts challenging him to friendly competition. Jeff is an EBW OG, and I don't care what anyone else says, a match with him is an honor all things considered. Before we get to that though, we have some footage from earlier in the day, as Cade Yaggis and NEW EBW Television Champion Maximillion Monroe ran into each other on the way here.

River City Streets

The camera followed “Trigger” Cade Yaggis walking down a dimly lit River City block toward the venue. He wore his sleeveless black hoodie zipped halfway and had his duffel bag slung over his shoulder. The streetlights reflected off the pavement, and the faint hum of traffic echoed in the background. As Cade rounded the corner toward the loading entrance, a sleek black car idled near the curb. The back door opened slowly.

Maximillion Monroe stepped out first, wearing his signature outlandish furs, the EBW Television Championship fastened securely around his waist. Noah Jennings exited behind him, adjusting his cufflinks and checking the polished gold wristwatch on his arm.

Cade stopped walking.

Maximillion noticed him immediately and smiled.

Maximillion Monroe: Well, if it is not the former champion himself. Hey, don't feel too bad about it. I made my first million when I was 16. What were you doing when you were 16? Exactly.

Cade shifted his bag to the ground but did not take his eyes off Monroe.

Cade Yaggis: You are carrying something that does not belong to you. Must feel heavy.

Noah chuckled softly.

Noah Jennings: It looks quite comfortable on him to me. You, on the other hand, look uncomfortable without it.

Cade stepped closer, closing the space between them.

Cade Yaggis: You needed a loaded wristwatch and your accountant here to steal it. Do not act like you won anything.

Maximillion Monroe: I did not steal it. I outmaneuvered you. You fight with emotion. I fight with preparation. There is a difference between being tough and being intelligent

Cade Yaggis: If you were intelligent, you would not be standing this close to me.

Maximillion did not step back.

Maximillion Monroe: If you were champion material, you would not have let yourself get caught by something so simple.

Noah tapped the face of his wristwatch deliberately.

Noah Jennings: Timing is everything in this business.

Cade Yaggis: Take the watch away and take him away, and where would you be? What kind of man are you?

Maximillion leaned forward slightly.

Maximillion Monroe: A millionaire.

Cade took another step forward until they were nearly chest to chest.

The tension remained thick in the River City air.

3. Singles: Carter Grayson vs. Jeff Andonuts
-Jeff began with chain wrestling, securing a headlock and dragging Carter to the mat before grinding his forearm into the temple. Carter pushed to his feet, shoved Jeff into the ropes, and dropped him with a shoulder tackle. Jeff countered the next exchange with a quick arm drag and transitioned into a grounded armbar.

Carter rolled through and lifted Jeff into a fireman’s carry, but Jeff slipped out and applied a rear waistlock before driving Carter backward into the corner. Jeff attempted a Hagen suplex, but Carter hooked the ropes and fired back with back elbows. Carter exploded forward with a running dropkick that sent Jeff tumbling to the floor.

Back inside the ring, Jeff connected with a missile dropkick from the top rope and covered for a two count. He attempted a sunset flip, but Carter rolled through the momentum, maintained control of Jeff’s torso, and smoothly transitioned into his Lightspeed Fireman’s Carry, spinning Jeff off his shoulders and driving him down in one fluid motion before hooking the leg for the three count.
Winner: Carter Grayson via Lightspeed Fireman's Carry -> Pin

Tommy Dukes: Carter Grayson with the win, and here comes Degrees with a Jet Havok uniform, but Carter Grayson is politely declining.

Nerma: He's lone warrior, fighting fires on his own terms.

Tommy Dukes: He stands for something, while another battle of ideals is up next. Greed, the new Great Tiger led version, that brought together the EBW Super Tag Team Champions, the newest Renegade Maximillion Monroe, who won the Television Championship in his debut, and Hashim Al-Singh, the former VBW Champion, taking on Little Mac and the men he took under his wing. It's an 8-Man war, and you know Great Tiger will be watching his old rival very carefully.

4. 8-Man Tag: Rama Raju/Komaram Bheem/Maximillion Monroe/Hashim Al-Singh vs. Little Mac/Cade Yaggis/Subculture/Picky
-A heated battle, as the Renegade Boss himself, stepped into the ring to fight off Great Tiger's version of Greed. The match began with Little Mac and Rama Raju exchanging heavy forearms in the center of the ring. Mac landed a body shot combination and a short headbutt that staggered Raju, but Bheem tagged in and immediately leveled Mac with a running shoulder block. Cade Yaggis entered and traded stiff strikes with Maximillion Monroe, who avoided a lariat and answered with a sharp knee lift to the midsection.

Subculture tagged in and springboarded into a corkscrew crossbody on Hashim before following with a running enzuigiri. Picky joined the exchange with a snap Hagen suplex to Monroe, who rolled to the apron to recover. The opposing team isolated Mac with rapid tags, wearing him down with double-team backbreakers and corner splashes.

Cade attempted to shift the momentum with a running boot to Hashim and a spinebuster to Bheem. Monroe returned and attempted his rolling cutter, but Cade shoved him away and delivered a short-arm clothesline. The finish occurred when Raju intercepted Mac mid-charge, hooked both arms, and drove him downward with the Burning Arrow, landing squarely and keeping his weight pressed for the three count.
Winners: Rama Raju[o]/Komaram Bheem/Maximillion Monroe/Hashim Al-Singh via Burning Arrow to Little Mac -> Pin

Tommy Dukes: Greed with the win. EBW Super Tag Champion Rama Raju just pinned the Renegade Boss! That was crazy action, but Greed solidifies their position with a victory.

Nerma: We're never going to hear the end of this, you can just tell. They're going to have a very expensive party tonight, as only Greed can do. Well Renegades, we opened the show with that tag team match, that saw the World Champion Zyro Kurogane and Dragon Shiryu get the win, and tonight, they're going to get a chance against BoomKick!

Tommy Dukes: That means....Jamie OD is coming out.

Nerma: Yep...everybody be vigilant, because it's time for our main event.

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

5. World Tag Team Championships: Jamie OD(c)/Boomtown(c) vs. Zyro Kurogane/Dragon Shiryu
-Jamie OD and Zyro Kurogane began the match, and Jamie immediately attempted to dictate the pace with a collar-and-elbow tie-up that he quickly shifted into a side headlock. Zyro pushed him into the ropes, but Jamie held onto the hold, grinding his forearm across Zyro’s temple before dropping him with a shoulder tackle. Jamie strutted briefly and cackled before attempting another lockup, but Zyro ducked underneath and delivered a sharp back kick to Jamie’s thigh, followed by a stiff forearm strike that staggered him backwards laughing. He swayed around and purposefully took his eyes off Zyro to relish in the pain.

Zyro whipped Jamie into the corner and followed with a running elbow strike before tagging in Dragon Shiryu. Shiryu entered with precision, targeting Jamie’s left leg with a snapping dragon screw that twisted him to the mat. Shiryu immediately applied a grounded leg lock, cranking back on the knee while keeping Jamie flat on his stomach. Boomtown stepped into the ring to break it up, forcing the referee to intervene.

Jamie slowly backed to his corner and tagged Boomtown, who entered aggressively with a running clothesline that caught Shiryu across the chest. Boomtown lifted Shiryu into a delayed vertical suplex, holding him high for several seconds before dropping him hard to the canvas. He covered for a two count and followed with a heavy knee drop to the ribs. Boomtown tagged Jamie back in, and the champions began isolating Shiryu with frequent tags and short, cutting offense.

Jamie raked Shiryu’s eyes while shielding the referee’s view with his body. He drove repeated stomps into Shiryu’s midsection before pulling him into the corner, where Boomtown delivered shoulder thrusts between the ropes. Jamie applied a grounded chinlock, pressing his knee into Shiryu’s spine while leaning his weight backward to wear him down. Shiryu reached upward but could not quite reach Zyro’s hand.

Shiryu eventually fought to his feet and fired back with short forearm strikes to Jamie’s jaw. Jamie responded with a thumb to the eye and attempted a snap suplex, but Shiryu blocked it and countered with a vertical suplex of his own. Both men fell to the mat, and the crowd grew louder as they crawled toward their corners.

Zyro received the tag and entered with immediate intensity. He knocked Boomtown off the apron with a running forearm before striking Jamie with a spinning backfist. Zyro followed with a snap Hagen suplex and maintained his grip, rolling through for a second release Hagen that sent Jamie skidding across the ring, but still laughing. Boomtown re-entered, but Zyro met his generational rival with a jumping knee strike and a sharp roundhouse kick to the side of the head.

The challengers began to build momentum as Shiryu returned and delivered a running dropkick to Boomtown’s knee, forcing him to stumble. Shiryu followed with a springboard knee strike that drove Boomtown into the turnbuckles. Jamie attempted to interfere from behind, but Zyro intercepted him with a waistlock and drove him backward into the corner.

Boomtown regained control momentarily by catching Shiryu with a spinebuster and dragging him toward the center for a cover that reached two and three-quarters before Zyro broke it up. Jamie seized the distraction and wrapped barbed wire around his fist, attempting to strike Zyro with it. As he stepped forward, Sal Paradise rushed down the entrance way and pulled Boomtown from the apron.

With Jamie neutralized outside and the ring finally cleared, Zyro lifted Boomtown onto his shoulders in an electric chair position. Shiryu ascended the ropes and launched forward, driving both knees into Boomtown’s chest as Zyro dropped backward. Shiryu followed it up with the Rozan Shoryu-Ha. The referee slid into position and counted three.

Zyro Kurogane and Dragon Shiryu remained on their knees for a moment before rising slowly, the championship belts handed to them under the glow of River City’s streetlights. Jamie OD cackeled the outside, separated from Sal Paradise by security, while Boomtown argued with the referee. NEW World Tag Team Champions.
Winners: Zyro Kurogane/Dragon Shiryu[o] via Rozan Shoryu-Ha to Boomtown -> Pin -> NEW World Tag Team Champions!

Tommy Dukes: Amazing! Thanks to the save from the former EBW Super Champion, Samurai Ifrit have the tag gold! Zyro-K and Shiryu are now two time World Tag Team Champions together. Boomtown is livid, you know he's got to be, but he'll get a chance to rebound as he has an upcoming World Championship match with Zyro-K coming very soon.

Nerma: For right now though, Zyro Kurogane, the man with the biggest mouth in EBW, also holds all the gold, so he's definitely backing it up.

Tommy Dukes: His midget girlfriend is cute too.

Nerma: Tommy!

Tommy Dukes: What?! I'm just saying!

Nerma: Grrrr.

Tommy Dukes: AAAH! Well Renegades, we'll see you this weekend for Rumble City!

Nerma: If you survive!

Tommy Dukes: OH NO!
