Magicant

A large group of heroes from all the Earths gathered as Justice Mach-2 addressed them.

Justice Mach-2: I know we felt safer here, like we had taken the Earths out of harm's way. BUT, we have to allow "Entity V" to know about this place. We have to get its attention. It has to know we're here, and the Earths are here, and if it wants to complete its mission, it will have to come for us. This place, this whole place was created by the Sanctum. It pulled from Flying Man's mind, and learned about creativity, and imagination. "Entity V" can't comprehend it, so even though it's passing through here, it can't see it. So, we have to make it see us!

Trevor Mach-10: You heard Justice. Grab a bat. Grab a gun. Grab a sword. Wrestlers, prepare to use your fists if you have to. Whatever damage you can do, you have to do it, and we can't be unwilling to risk our lives. We are all that stands in the way. This is it. No time to lose your composure. No time to second guess it. No time for any of this. Earth-1 is under attack, and we're going to save it now. Let's go!

Tack Angel: Wow, great speech Trev.

Trevor Mach-10: Uh...thanks Tack.

Lady M's: You alright Trev? You're looking.

Tack Angel: Old right? He's looking old.

Trevor Mach-10: ...It's just this experience is all. We'd better get ready for the fight.

Tack Angel: Right.

Lady M's: Right behind you.

Fray Tiburon looked at Trevor Mach-10 with curiosity, and then finally approached him.

Fray Tiburon: ...Where is the Trevor Mach of Earth-1?

Trevor Mach-10: ...You noticed huh?

Fray Tiburon: You look most like the Trevor Mach of our Earth, but several years older. I sense you to be an honorable man, but you're keeping something from them, trying to protect them?

Trevor Mach-10: ...You have great instincts Padre.

Fray Tiburon: I am Trevor's Priest...or should I say was?

Trevor Mach-10: ...Was.

Fray Tiburon: ...I see.

Trevor Mach-10: He helped save countless lives.

Fray Tiburon: He is leaving behind so much...his young child Justice...needs a father, but we'll make sure he grows up to know the kind of man his father truly was.

Trevor Mach-10: ...Yes.

Fray Tiburon: We'll figure out how to tell them later. Right now, we have to complete this divine plan.

Trevor Mach-10: You think it an act of God?

Fray Tiburon: It's hard to truly say, but after all we've seen and done, I would not discount the Sanctum's plan being God's plan.




The hundreds of heroes readied themselves for battle, and soon after rushed head long towards the giant black mass. All at once, they struck with fury and determination.

Earth-1

Bashin Dan wiped away his tears as he looked on with Hope Mach towards the battle.

Bashin Dan: I have to get back there. I have to help! I have to help Jammer and Vape!

Hope Mach: They knew what they were doing. They all did. The hardest part is trusting that everyone knows what is at stake here. I want to go back and help Christina myself. I want to find Gold and Sylvie. I just...I just want to be there too, but look around you. These people are alive because of what they sacrificed, and what we're doing now, which is hoping that our friends and our family make it out of this alive.

Bashin Dan: This isn't the way I would have played this. My strategy....my deck would have been different. Never again Hope. I can't be on the sidelines. I have to step up. I have to-

Suddenly, the giant tendril that was smashing into the Earth recoiled, and a massive shriek sent shockwaves for miles. All around the Earth, the tendrils recoiled, and retreated from the ruined cities. Crystal Heaven was preparing for its own attack with Wives and Pirates at the ready, when the pulsating Resonance Point suddenly returned to stability.

Amy Angel: That has to be Tack.

Tracy Angel: I'd say that's Tack AND our Faris.

Makoto Angel: We dodged a bullet. I was sensing some serious nega-vibes from that thing.

Pirate Bill: Yarr....I nearly wet meself in fear.

Penguin: Qua?

Pirate Bill: Sorry, I get too honest when I be scared. Yarr.

Magicant

The dark tendrils pulled back into Magicant, where the Reapers and walking revanants poured across the once pristine land. Wrestlers, Henshin Heroes, Warriors and Wizards, and every other manner of hero collided with massive force, sacrificing life and limb to keep the attention of "Entity V". The corpse of Darkness Angel stood among them and looked over the land he found himself in. In the midst of the battle, he found Tack Angel.

Darkness Angel: You.

Tack Angel: Me? ME! You're ME!

Darkness Angel: Saw it all through your eyes. Saw creation. Now I consume it. I consume you.
 
Tack Angel: Alright, so NOT me!

Darkness Angel brandished a giant sword of shadow and tried to cleave Tack, but Trevor-10 and Justice-2 stepped up and fought back. Tack ran and jumped off of their shoulders and kick a Rider Kick, sending "Entity V" back into the crowd.

Unlosing Ranger: Now THAT'S a Rider Kick!

Kamen Rider SOUL: Agreed.

Reckless Cop Dangerama: The creature yet lives. *RECKLESS CANNON*!

Unlosing Ranger: There he goes stealing the spotlight!

Dangerama carved through the shadows with his overly powerful cannon, but "Entity V" rushed out of Darkness Angel's mouth, and the formless beast battered the Reckless Cop, tearing off his arm cannon.

Reckless Cop Dangerama: I appear to be damaged.

Unlosing Ranger: Dammit man, don't go dying until I prove that I'm the better hero! Stand back, I'll fight them off.

Reckless Cop Dangerama: Confirmed.

Prism Princess Etranger: See? I knew you cared.

Unlosing Ranger: I DO NOT!

The heroes were getting cut down left and right, but they kept up the fight, trying to draw "Entity V" into Magicant. Soon enough, the entirety of its being poured into the crafted reality. A booming voice echoed out, as if from a being the size of a universe was doing the talking.

"Entity V": What is this? This is where Earths are. I will consume. I will consume all. I will become all. Whatever this is, I can not see, but I can see Earths, and when I consume them, I will consume all. I will consume. I will consume. I will consume. I wi-

Jacob: You're done consuming you monster. Humanity has battled the single strongest entity that the darkness has ever created...in you.

Chris P. Bacon: They have battled you. Fought you across realities, and brought you here. Right into our trap.

"Entity V": Trap. Trap. Trap. Trap. What is Trap? Consume. I will consume! I will consume! I WILL CONSUME! I WILL CONSUME! I WILL-

Suddenly, the gates all around Magicant closed, and "Entity V" found itself trapped.

Justice Mach-2: This was the will of the Sanctum you bastard. Bring you to a place you couldn't comprehend.

Trevor Mach-10: We baited you in, and you fell for it hook, line, and sinker.

Degrees-4: Those that were killed will be aveneged here and now!

Suddenly, the sky that was once pink, shimmered in prismatic colors, the colors of the Sanctum.

Trevor Mach-10: Everyone! ATTACK!

The Sanctum poured into Magicant, and seemingly clashed with the formless darkness from the back, while everyone left alive began to shimmer and glow. They all jumped into the air and poured themselves into a massive force that attacked "Entity V" from the front. Trevor Mach-10 and Justice-2 collided with the intense darkness first, and the force knocked Justice back, but he felt a hand on his back steady him and send him forward again.

Trevor Mach: I'm with you son. Always with you.

Justice Mach-2: Dad?!

Justice Mach-2 was sent forward to rejoin the massive force. Beams of light from both sides, attacking the darkness, dimminishing it, and sending it back into itself. From a distance two figures watched on.

Chris P. Bacon: This is it. The trap is sprung.

Jacob: Yes, whatever is left of "Entity V" will be trapped in a concept it can't understand for all eternity, and the Sanctum will reshape reality.

Chris P. Bacon: I'm glad we could help lead them on the way. By the way, it's great to see you again Jacob.

Jacob: Right?! It's been far too long my friend. Are you ready to go home?

Chris P. Bacon: That I am. That I am. But look, we're about to witness it. The birth...of a new universe.

"Entity V" collapsed in on itself as the two forces on either side annihilated it. A bright flash encompassed everything, all of reality, every last bit of it left. There was darkness....but then...there was light.

Classified Document - For Your Eyes Only

From the Desk of "Mr. Face"

It appears another cosmic level event has transpired. I found myself unaware of it myself, left with a haze of some sort regarding the "Resonance Points" that no longer exist. Jeff Andonuts returned to the base in Summers after going missing for some time, and returning with only one leg. The cosmic level event saw a merging of what was left of the quantum realty entanglement we learned of with the "Sanction" event. An entity known as "Entity V" attempted to consume all matter, and replace it with void space, but the Sanctum trapped it and proceeded to use our Earth, designated Earth-1 to rebuild the universe, combining what was left of the remainders to create a "New Earth-1" as we're now calling it. Our very memories will have been changed in this process, and we're working with those that remember the "unofficial version" to compile a list of changes. From what we understand, several "assets" were eliminated in the process. Some that we already considered missing or dead were apparently still with us in this cosmic event. Their deaths were reconciled in the new reality, or forgotten about altogether. This is a list of the original body count as far as we knew.

Deceased or M.I.A
---------------------------

Trevor Mach - Slain by Tack Angel of Earth-5 designate "Darkness Angel"
Degrees - Self sacrifice to stop the "Void Wave Generator"
Maurice - Killed in combat
Sylvie - Killed in combat
Cade - Killed in combat
w00t - Death by debris
Alissa Flash - Missing presumed Dead
Chris P. Bacon - M.I.A

That was the initial assessment, but working with Jeff Andonuts, and the Doctor Degrees of Earth-4, now living on Earth-1, we were able to compile a list of other casualties that fell in the "Battle of North Point", where the EBW "assets" fought against the "Entity".

Deceased or M.I.A
---------------------------

Dangerous D - M.I.A
"3G" Krissy Gale - M.I.A
Calamity Jane - M.I.A
Rupert Alwaysontime - Killed in combat
Mr. Wozniack - Killed by KYO
Mr. Dufrene - Killed by KYO
Mav Valentine - M.I.A
CP Munk - M.I.A
Kiva - Killed in combat
Hoary Boulder - M.I.A

The deaths of Mr. Wozniack and Mr. Dufrene leave Noah Jennings in charge of EBW, as ENN remains desperate to keep the channel. Reports from Dr. Andonuts and Degrees suggest that ENN had become Strike TV, and was working with the Mayor of Summers and the IronBloods to facilitate "Entity V" with false promises of power after the consumption of "Earth-1". ENN, known as a supporting force to EBW from our point of view, is a stark contrast. Reports indicate that time and space have settled into a new state of normalcy, and the readings haven't been as stable since the first Sanctum event or the Black Hole incidents. Time should function as intended, and space will no longer produce the means for the Sanctum or Void to bleed through. 

I would conclude this report saying that the cosmic level events might finally be behind us, if not for one glaring problem, that requires a full commitment of resources. The whereabouts of prisoner designate "Giygas" are currently unknown.

Bashin Dan: I've had a big year, a year of change, but the Dangerous Player is just getting started. If you think you've seen my best, you haven't seen anything yet.

-

Kinniku Mike: Uuuuu! The Tits have never been stronger, and Kinniku Mike is going to bring in the New Year as the #1 Contender!

-

Dick Wagner: Ol' Dick is looking to drink some beers and bang some rats this New Year's Eve, but taking home the #1 Contender contract is sure to being in that extra cash I need to fill up my gimmick bag with anything I need for the road, so why the *bleep* not?

-

Kaie: You don't need me here telling you why I want this win. You already know why. You need something to market? Some headline? I'm doing this for the Eisenritter. I'm doing this for Erica. I'm doing this for me. That's winning at any cost. Hook or crook.

-

Hope Mach: I've been a World Champion, and a World Tag Team Champion. Winning this title gave me the Triple Crown, and I'm not about to give up that distinction without a fight. Kaie's a tough one, she likes to hurt you. She likes to bloody you up. Well nobody stop this match if it gets too bloody, cause I'm going to keep fighting, and I'll win.

-

Hotlanta: IronBloods, changed the game in 2019. Born from the ashes of failed take over, we've taken the very best of that project. The very best that would have and should have gotten it done, and we've found nothing but success. The Bad Dudes lost these titles to us, and they're not getting them back.

-

Trevor Mach-10: Uh...

Tack Angel: Let me tag in for this one. The Wolves and the IronBloods, that been a hot feud to end this year on, and I can't wait to ring in 2020 with the World Tag Team Championships, when we take out Hotlanta and KYO. Then, we'll be rooting for you Swift!

Trevor Mach-10: Oh yeah. Tonight, we're dealing with the IronBloods? They don't have the strength. They don't have the training. They don't have the experience. Being blood thirsty and arrogant won't get you far when you're in the ring with ....the....WAR WOLF...that's it. The War Wolf.

Tack Angel: ....Dude, you alright?

-

Camilio Ortega: The Path lead me to the Television Championship. The Path lead me to becoming the Clash Master. The Path will continue to lead me to victory after victory. More and more success. That's what the IronBloods are here for. That's what we do.

-

Amigo: Sal Paradise put me and Mike back together because he knew that his "Collection" needed the very best talent. That's what he got, and he's getting his money's worth every time I step in the ring for a fight. Ortega took the title of Clash Master. I think it's fitting I take the Television Championship!

-

Jamie OD: Oi! You know me chaps, I just luv bein the fly in the ointment. The monkey in the wrench. Ahaha!

-

Nani Angel: I will destroy Erica. That's it. That's the statement.

-

Erica: 2019 was the year I embraced myself truly. It's the year I took what rightfully belongs to me. 2020 will be remembered at the year of the Eisenritter. The year of Erica. Nani Angel, is just another Angel roadblock I'll have to put down.

-

Tomo: .....

-

Swift: This has been MY YEAR! The year of breaking records! Breaking bodies! Breaking down the system! I proved that this is still, and will always be MY RING! That first hour of 2020 will be me keeping my resolution, which is to keep kicking ass in this or ANY YEAR!

EBW Last Clash 2019

Tommy Dukes: Welcome to the North Point Garden! We are sold out on New Year's Eve for this incredible night of fights! Yes, somehow SOMEHOW EBW has survived another year of chaos and anarchy. We have a solid foundation heading into 2020 on one hand with the downfall of EBW: Dark, but then we have to remember that Noah Jennings is our undisputed Boss and all hope seems lo-

Noah Jennings: HEY! I'm sitting right here!

Tommy Dukes: Yeah...I know.

Noah Jennings: I've been working hard to make EBW the best, and bringing it here was partly my idea! I mean, I made it happen didn't I? I chartered the boats and everything! I'm working hard, so give me the benefit of the doubt here.

Tommy Dukes: I guess I'll have to won't I? You're signing the checks. Just hope they don't bounce.

Noah Jennings: We made a lot of money this year! You have any idea how much ENN pays us to stay on the network? I was THINKING of giving you and the wife a raise but-

Nerma: I personally think you're doing a wonderful job Mr. Jennings. You're ideas and cutting edge vision have been super helpful at making EBW destination television if you want to see competitive matches and great charac-

Noah Jennings: You don't have to kiss my ass, just do your job!

Nerma: Oh thank God. I was getting sick. You DID pick this theme song though didn't you? I like it. What was the motivation?

Noah Jennings: Umm...just a tribute...to someone who couldn't be here tonight I guess. I mean he is...but he isn't.

Nerma: ...Yeah alright.

Makoto Angel: This announce table is getting so crowded! We have some much fun tonight! I'm excited! Two matches with Angels! You can't beat that. PLUS, I have it on good authority that Christina Angel will be seconding Nani Angel to the ring tonight. I love seeing the family getting along and-

Nerma: Yeah yeah yeah, you're an Angel and you love Angel stuff. We get it. This is a New Year we're heading towards, so let's make a resolution about that bias huh?

Makoto Angel: *sigh*

Tommy Dukes: Bad Dudes and IronBloods! The Iron Man main event! This is going to be great!

Noah Jennings: And it all starts with this opening ladder match. Let's take it to the ring!

Tommy Dukes: That's my thing.

Noah Jennings: Boss.

Tommy Dukes: Right. It's your thing. Whatever. Let's do tha-wait what? Here comes Chad Salad and the "Heat Parade" as he calls them. What do they what?

Chad Salad: I'm not impressed by North Point! This place you live in sucks! Your sports teams suck, and I don't like the local landmarks you're so proud of! The Heat Paradise is pissed, because we're not on the final show of the year?! That's bull! We deserve a match, and we're not leaving until we get one! So we're challenging any three guys to come out and face us, but you better have thick skin, cause I'm not going to be impressed by you and-

?: Do you really have to have skin to compete? That's going to be a problem.

Chad Salad: Huh?




Tommy Dukes: Nerma look! It's Sans Undertale!

Nerma: And he's not alone!

Noah Jennings: I see my new hires have made it!

Sans Undertale: You probably want someone with "guts" too, but I don't have that going on either, but what I do have is Dem Bones, and Death himself. How's that for a formidable team? With our Agent Manny Calavera, we are known as the "NEW" Skeleton Crew!

Chad Salad: I don't want to fight skeletons?! TOO SPOOKY!

Sans Undertale: TOO late. Hehe.

EBW: Last Clash 2019
North Point Garden, North Point
ENN+

0. 6-Man Tag: Sans Undertale[o]/Dem Bones/Death beat Chad Salad[x]/Misogynist Paul/Robert Sandwich via Ghaster Buster -> Pin
-The Skeleton Crew caught the Heat Parade completely off guard, battering them down, with Sans Undertale pinning Salad after a Ghaster Buster.

Tommy Dukes: Wow, a hell of a debut for the Skeleton Crew!

Noah Jennings: I always strive to bring out the very best...money permitting.

Makoto Angel: Is that actually Death? Like the REAL Death?

Noah Jennings: Yeah, he said he was out of the job or something, but a big wrestling aficionado, so here we are.

1. EBW World #1 Contender Ladder: Bashin Dan beat Kinniku Mike, Fray Tiburon, Fighter Daron, Dick Wagner, and Firebrand X via Contract Grab
-An intense match full of great wrestling and hardcore spots, especially from Firebrand, but not much in the way of high spots, because high sports are over and dead and I hate them. The ladder was trashed, but while Fighter Daron and Frary Tiburon fought to get another one, Dan jumped off of Dick Wagner's back, onto Kinniku Mike's shoulders, and used him to get to the contract, giving the Dangerous Player the win and the #1 Contender spot.

Noah Jennings: That's how you OFFICIALLY start a Last Clash! Yeah!

Arliss Michaels: I disagree. It's an outrage. Daron wasn't even in the ring! You'll be hearing from my lawyers.

Nerma: So...he doesn't watch much wrestling does he?

2. EBW Women's Television Championship No Rules: Kaie beat Hope Mach(c) via Celtic Hand Grenade x Crucifix Powerbomb -> Pin -> NEW EBW Women's Television Champion!
-A hard hitting affair, fought mostly outside of the ring, that saw the ladies go out into the crowd, and fight with whatever they could get their hands on. Back in the ring, Erica's maid Duvalie got involved, clobbering Hope with a chair shot, which allowed Kaie to wind up the Celtic Hand Grenade. A Crucifix Powerbomb lead to the pin.

Nerma: We have a new Television Champion! Kaie is the winner with a major assist from Duvalie. The prim and proper maid got her hands dirty here. The Eisenritter had a secret weapon and it paid off.

Backstage

Hope Mach made her way to the back, and grabbed an ice pack for her neck. Trevor Mach-10 approached her.

Trevor Mach-10: Hope? Are you alright?

Hope Mach: I'm pissed off obviously, but I'm fine. Dad, you know I can take a lot more than that cheap shot.

Trevor Mach-10: Right. Just glad you're alright. I'm sorry about the loss, but hold your head high, because in a real honorable match, I could easily see you beating her. You'll win the rematch.

Hope Mach: You feeling alright Dad?

Trevor Mach-10: Absolutely. Just...just glad to see you Daughter. I love you.

Hope Mach: Uh...love you too Dad?

Trevor-10 hugged Hope before meeting with Tack at the curtain.

Tack Angel: You ready to go "War Wolf"? They got your song queued up, so I figure we'll go out to tha-

Trevor Mach-10: I have another song actually, if you don't mind. I was really happy to find it still existed here.

Tack Angel: Huh?

Trevor Mach-10: Nothing. Don't worry about it. Tack, you ready to go my friend?

Tack Angel: Ready whenever you are...."my friend"?




3. EBW World Tag Team Championships: Trevor Mach[o]/Tack Angel beat Hotlanta(c)/KYO(c)[x] via Spinning Back Elbow x Burning Machismo -> Pin -> NEW EBW World Tag Team Champions!
-A much different night for Trevor Mach, who was moving methodically, and using his more mat wrestling and power slams. Several tag with Tack, with much less show boating, he talked up his friend when he was down on the mat instead of the usual "bantz". The IronBloods team were in control until Mach hit a Spinning Back Elbow to Hotlanta that took him off his game. As KYO tried to get in, Tack went off the top with a Rider Kick to block him. Mach hit the Burning Machismo for the pin, the win, and the EBW World Tag Team Championships.

Tommy Dukes: UNBELIE- uh....IMPLAUSIBLE! The Bad Dudes just got the win back from the IronBloods and recaptured the World Tag Team Championships! Awesome match there. I don't think we saw Trevor hit a knee once! A different move set, and it worked. Even Tack is surprised as Trevor is handing him his title belt and lifting his hand up.

4. EBW Television Championship: Camilo Ortega(c) beat Amigo and Jamie OD[x] via Gokyo no Waza -> Pin -> Title Defense!
-A frantic, mat based competition, with Jamie OD sneaking in with the cheap shots, that lead to Ortega and Amigo trying to work together to throw him out of the ring, but Hooligan brought a chain to wrap around his fist and clobbered Amigo, who begged the ref not to issue the DQ, as a nasty cut on his face had him bleeding heavily. The shenanigans of OD finally failed when Ortega hit his Gokyo no Waza to score the pin and the title defense.

Tommy Dukes: The leader of the IronBloods retains! The elite group lost their tag edge, but they still have the Television Championship and the World Team Rings. Maybe later, they could even hold the EBW Triple Crown World Championships.

5. "Last Match of 2019" EBW Women's World Championship: Erica(c) beat Nani Angel via Air Raid Crash -> Pin -> Title Defense!
-The "Last Match of 2019" and last one of the entire decade, would see Erica put up the Women's World Championship on the line against Nani Angel. The underdog Nani put her years of experience to work, and stretched Erica to her limits looking for a submission. Christina Angel was on the outside to cheer on Nani and keep Kaie away, but the unassuming Duvalie made another move, attacking Christina Angel, but throwing her cast into the side of the ring. Nani tried to block it out, but the distraction gave Erica her opening for the Air Raid Crash and the pin. Erica with the title defense as the year came to an end.

Tommy Dukes: 10-9-8-7-

Makoto Angel: 6-5-4-

Nerma: 3-2-1!

Noah Jennings: Happy New Year EBW!

6. "First Match of 2020" EBW Triple Crown World Championship Iron Man: Swift(c) beat Tomo (4-3) -> Title Defense!
-The first match of the year and decade, and the only match that could have topped the previous World Championship match. Swift and Tomo went all out, with the Wolves and the IronBloods on the outside looking on, but agreeing to stay out of the proceedings. A shocker in the early minutes when Tomo goaded Swift to the top rope and hit the Brainbuster for a pin. Later, Swift followed that up by battering the IronBlood's silent dog and hitting the POUNCE! for the pin. Another pin for Swift came after a Brainbuster escape and a Blackhammer counter. Tomo stopped trying with the Brainbuster, and got creative with a Vertical Suplex Piledriver that capture him a pin. The two fighters went 20 minutes without a fall and without a break. The both collapsed from a choppa choppa lariat battle, and the ref had to make the 10 Count. Neither man got up and the ref called it as a point for both. He was about to stop the match, when they finally crawled back to their feet to continue. With seconds left, Swift narrowly missed  a POUNCE!, but with a large SLAP! he took Tomo off his game long enough for Swift to hit a Vertical Suplex Powerbomb for the 1-2-3! The time was up, and Swift narrowly retained the Triple Crown World Championship!

-Tomo beat Swift via Top Rope Brainbuster -> Pin
-Swift beat Tomo via POUNCE! -> Pin
-Swift beat Tomo via Blackhammer -> Pin
-Tomo beat Swift via Vertical Suplex Piledriver -> Pin
-Swift vs. Tomo -> Double 10 Count
-Swift beat Tomo via Vertical Suplex Powerbomb -> Pin

Tommy Dukes: Holy shit! That was amazing! An incredible and worthy main event! That is the bar being set for 2020! Who the hell can possibly top a match of that quality!

Noah Jennings: That's what I'm talking about! That is what I hope EBW can bring in this new decade! If the 2010's were the years of spot fests and flip monkeys, I hope that the "Roarin' 20's" will all about this! REAL wrestling!

Nerma: That does it for us tonight. Thanks for ending 2019 with us and welcoming 2020! Yes, another year of EBW is on the way. I love it to death and even that surprises me.

Makoto Angel: Happy New Year Everyone!

Outside of the North Point Garden

From a building roof across the street, a figure in a hat and trench coat observed as three figures spoke.

Jeff Andonuts: See? That wasn't so bad.

Trevor Mach-10: No, don't get me wrong. I love being in the ring again, battling alongside my friend. It's exhilarating. I just want to get this right. I want to set an example, and look after my family...his family....OUR family. 

Degrees-4: I think we're both just overwhelmed with our fortune here. A second chance for me. We both have new families to take care of. I'm just hoping we can live up to expectations.

Jeff Andonuts: You guys are going to do great, I just know it, and it looks like Noah is ready to fall into his role. I think this year will be great for you both and for EBW. I just have something for you to keep in mind. The Camilo Ortega you saw in the ring tonight is from Earth-5. He's NOT the Earth-1 Ortega. Plus, the IronBloods were in league with forces that wanted to assist "Entity V" on this Earth. Who knows what they'll have planned next.

Trevor Mach-10: Whatever happens, we're do what we have to.

Degrees-4: Agreed.

Jeff Andonuts: Alright, well go and celebrate. I think after all that's happened we all earned it.

The group dispersed and the figure watching walked away as well.

?: Heh, so easy to replace huh?

Backstage

The Wolves were entering the arena together sans Trevor Mach and sans Swift...and sans Sans too....obviously.

Tack Angel: It's a New Year everybody!

Generator: We know. Why are you saying it out loud like that? We already know.

Tack Angel: It's just....I just...*sigh* I'm happy about a thing Generator. Sorry, you're such a sad sack. Get over yourself.

Rude: Damn, he got you there Gen.

Generator: ....Yeah, I guess he did. Not sure how I feel about a Tack Angel burn.

Tack Angel: It hurts more cause I'M SUCH A NICE GUY!

Reno: Where are half the guys? Oh wait, that's Trevor right there. What do you have there Trevor?

Trevor Mach-10: Well, I thought we'd start the year off on the right track, as I see the 3 Wolf Moon being a real symbol of hope and justice for EBW.

Tack Angel: Those are your kid's names.

Trevor Mach-10: Yes my friend. That's correct.

Tack Angel: Really? No rude comment about my response? I opened the door for you.

Rude: I don't want to comment on it.

Tack Angel: No, I mean-

Trevor Mach-10: I want to get you guys a "belated Christmas present" Here you go.

Trevor-10 started throwing black, white, and red track suits to the group, with the 3 Wolf Moon logo on the back.

Reno: Wow, that's some sick new merch we could sell.

Trevor Mach-10: Well sure, but I want us to wear them too. A sign of solidarity I guess? I don't know. Maybe I should have run it by you guys first but-

Rude: Nah man, this shit is tight. I'll wear it.

Generator: It's the right size? How did you know?

Trevor Mach-10: Heh. Lucky guess?

Reno: No, this is great stuff Trevor. We appreciate it. Now let's go win us a #1 Contendership tonight.

Trevor Mach-10: That sounds like a plan. Kick some ass, win some titles, and show the people that there are still heroes! Yeah!

The group walked away leaving a very confused Tack Angel behind.

Tack Angel: Gifts and no insults. What's happening here? I'll wear the top, but I'm keeping my Jncos!

Elsewhere Backstage

Bashin Dan and EBW Triple Crown World Champion Swift met in a hallway.

Swift: I was wondering if you'd actually show.

Bashin Dan: I never back down from a challenge.

Swift: Not a challenge. I'm just sizing you up kid. Seeing if you've still got it.

Bashin Dan: Got it?

Swift: That edge you used to take me on. You had it before, and I wanted to see if you had it now. You'd better have it, or you're going to get hurt.

Bashin Dan: Is that a threat?

Swift: A warning. I owe you. Your matches helped me realize I wasn't fighting for the right side. The utter betrayal and back stabbing really set it into motion, but I had my doubts after our bouts last year.

Bashin Dan: I'm only getting better Mr. Swift. Like I said, I never back down.

Swift: You've got the heart alright. You've got the guts too, I'll give you that. But the kind of beating I've been laying down is on a whole other level now. Had to be to finish off that tough bastard Tomo. You better make sure this is what you want.

Bashin Dan: Definitely. I won that match, and the gate is open. I'm ready to go.

Swift: Heh.





EBW: Xcite 2020
Renegade Arena, Saturn City
ENN

1. Singles: Sans Undertale beat Chad Salad via T-Bone Suplex -> Pin
-Chad Salad was timid about wrestling the skeleton man, and that was obvious throughout. Sans offered him a hand shake, but the gag skeleton hand that Chad pulled back freaked him out. A T-Bone Suplex lead to the pin.

Tommy Dukes: That's another win for Sans Undertale. I guess he was right about not fighting if you wanted the good end, cause it ended embarrassingly bad for Chad.

Death: Sans is a great guy, and I'm really happy for him.

Nerma: Holy shit, the Grim Reaper is sitting next to us!

Death: Hello! Listen, I know you're freaked out, but I'm just like you now...minus skin and organs mostly.

Nerma: Y-yeah?

Death: Totally! After the reorganization of the universe the death toll was too high, so I found myself out of the job, replaced by the "new way of things" up on high. You know what I mean?

Nerma: No. Not one bit. What the HELL are you talking about?

Death: Just #Deaththings

Nerma: Right. How about you Dem? You got something to say?

Dem Bones: ....

Nerma: I guess not. Hey, have you met Tomo? You guys would have a great discussion.

Tommy Dukes: Speaking of Tomo, we have the IronBloods standing by. Let's take it to them.

Backstage

Camilo Ortega: The Path is filled with obstacles, but they are easily overcome if we attack them together, and that's exactly what we'll do. The World Championship, those three belts, the ultimate prize, it's still in our gaze, and we will have it. But, right now, we have two teams looking to take our Team Rings. These prove that you're the ultimate unit in the sport, and that's what we are. We're that a so much more. So close to ruling over you all, and you have no idea about it. We'll take this though. For now, this is our consolation. Our proof of dominance. I'd say to kick off this brand new year that was never meant to be, we'll elevate the situation. The IronBloods, the mercenaries, the elite fighters, challenge the winning team of tonight's main event....to face us at New Year Rising 2020....in War Games.

2. 3-Team Tag: Firebrand X/Subculture[o] beat Dick Wagner/Magnum PT[x] and Fray Tiburon/Rey Dorado via KO Punch -> Pin
-A chaos filled match, with "Magnum Dick" playing the wild cards. The crowd ate up Dick Wagner's antics, but they were more excited to see the returning Rey Dorado teaming with Fray Tiburon. That being said, the excellent and established team of Firebrand X and Subculture won out with a KO Punch from Subbie to PT.

Tommy Dukes: That's a win for you. Subculture, you were looking great out there.

Subculture: That win is dedicated to my wife, whom I wishing a continued speedy recovery. She's about ready to get back to it, and just like me, she needs a win, so that's your motivation baby. I love you.

Firebrand X: We're dedicating matches to our wives now. Gemma...that was for you I suppose...for no good reason. Love you.

Nerma: X is ever the romantic. Whoa, here comes Dick Wagner.

Makoto Angel: I can smell him from here.

Dick Wagner: I was bootin and a scootin out there, and my boy PT took a pin, but that's alright, cause Ol' Dick ain't just looking for tag gold baby. I want to be Dicky Two Belts, cause I need them to hold up my pants. They're not the right size. I grab whatever I can from the merch booth. All the shit I own comes from the gimmick table. You understand? Mah-ku-too, I've got a message for that there Star Prince you're shacking up with. You tell than sumbitch, that I'm coming for that Mars Championship. You tell him to meet me at the Studio, cause we're gonna do a little rasslin'. A big boot, a LARIATOOO, and a 1-2-3. That's a Mars Championship and a pay day for me. Time to find some rats to *bleep*.

Makoto Angel: ...Oh Tack's not going to like that.

3. EBW Women's Television Championship Falls Count Anywhere: Kaie(c) beat Hope Mach via Unconscious Cover -> Pin -> Title Defense!
-Kaie and Hope Mach immediately left the ring for this one, and brawled all around the arena. The fans loved it, throwing stuff for them to use in their bloody brawl. Duvalie was standing nearby, smiling and giving a bow, but Hope expected an attack and kept her at a distance long enough to throw Kaie out into the streets. She shut the door behind herself, and used a bar to prevent Duvalie from following. They continued to brawl into the streets, when suddenly, 21st Century Foxx, and four other figures in masks attacked both women. As they gloated over them, Foxx flipped a coin, and decided to roll Kaie onto Hope, and the five walked off. The ref had no choice but to make a count.

Nerma: What the hell was that?

Makoto Angel: 21st Century Foxx found some major back up. I feel like that was an example. They were making an example out of the two.

Nerma: Kaie looks pissed as she's getting up. She's going after them by herself, but Erica and Duvalie have gotten in the way. That's probably for the best. The numbers game is working against her.
4. Tag: Jamie OD[o]/Jamie XL[Debut] beat Amigo[x]/Kinniku Mike via GTPK -> Pin
-Amigo and Kinniku Mike were caught off guard, as Jamie OD introduced a new wrestler to EBW to back him up. Wearing a black leather vest and pants, the very tall and muscular man with a long ginger mullet was introduced as Jamie XL. Jamies OD and XL was in control, but the strength and experience of the Paradise Collection helped them against the tall rookie. Suddenly Jamie OD shouted something about long retired wrestler "Maurice", which caused a pause long enough for XL to land the big boot. He tagged out to OD and went to brawl with Mike, as Jamie set up Amigo for the GTPK and the pin.

Tommy Dukes: That new guy ain't fooling around. So much strength, power, and ginger....osity? Jamie, where did you find this guy?

Jamie OD: I don't have to tell you SHIT!

Tommy Dukes: Huh...well he's got me there.

5. EBW Women's World #1 Contender: Tracy Angel beat Gold, Kimber Blaze, and Calamity Lain[x] via TikTak -> Pin
-A fantastic fight that saw the four women go all out for the title shot. Calamity Lain seemed to have it won with her signature Lariat on Gold, but Tracy Angel rolled back into the ring and hit a TikTak for the quick pin and victory. Tracy Angel is the next challenger for Erica.

Makoto Angel: YEAH! Alright Tracy! Wooo!

Nerma: *sigh* Yeah alright.

Makoto Angel: That's great, and you know why. This is personal Nerma. She's attacked and hurt so many members of-

Nerma: Wait look, we've got the Eisenritter on the stage, they're looking to attack right now. Erica is not going to wait, but what wait, who is that coming through the crowd?! The fans are going insane! Who is-LADY M'S! LADY M'S! LADY M'S IS BACK!

Lady M's: Whoa now Erica, it's a blast from your past. You weren't planning on attacking my old "friend" were you? Yeah, I know you always wanted some of this, but you didn't get it did you? You wanted to be me when you couldn't be with me. That didn't work out either did it? Took you WAAAY too long to get to where you needed to be, but you got there didn't you? Damn you got there. You're incredible. I can not deny how good you are. You've got it all figured out. You've got the gold. You even have the gold armor. You have the muscle, and you have the crafty maid there. Can't get a read on her yet. I'm sure we'll figure it out, because I might have to stick around a while. I say that because the Women's Division SUCKS right now! Controversial statement?! You think so? Look up there. Look on the stage. That's where your World Champion is. That's where the Television Champion is. They have them, and the rest of you don't. Every single one of you that goes up against Erica gets injured. Every single time. We have you now Tracy? You're the next Angel up to bat? As a favor to you and to Tack, I'm going to stand in your way here. I think you've been too busy on multi-wife misadventures. I think you and Amy Angel were training to join the Saturn City Police? Is that right? You took the time out of that to try and step up for the family? I don't think you have what it takes for this. I don't think any of you are currently where you need to be to get the job done. Don't like it? Reality hurts, invest in ibuprofen.

Tracy Angel: Tali, you and I go way back. We know more about each other than most, and it's something people don't like to talk about, but it happened. We were close for a time. We were both very confused, and very drunk, but we were close. Of course, I find out later that you were mostly pulling the wool over my eyes too. Doing what you did for other reasons. Never actually divorcing Trevor Mach. That broke the trust. But, I have to thank you, because it lead me to where I wanted to be, where I needed to be. It might not make sense to most people, and it doesn't to me sometimes, but it's right. My family, my crazy, extended family, is where I belong. You mess with one of us, that means you mess with all of us. This right here, is more important than whatever we had going on back then. Face turns? Heel turns? It all feels so small to me, when I look at my family, and then I see the woman who is hurting my "sisters". I'll do whatever it takes to prove I want this. I just did. I just got the title shot.

Lady M's: That might prove it to them, but it doesn't mean shit to me Tracy. Doesn't mean shit to me at all. You show me what you've got. Next week, it'll be you and me. How does that sound? If I win....I take your title shot. If you win, I'll watch your back for your match. I'll be at ringside, and if anyone tries to get involved, they'll eat so many right elbows, they'll be begging for a left. What do you say?

Tracy Angel: Yeah...yeah absolutely. You're on!

Nerma: WOW! Just like that, a MEGA MATCH has been put together for next week. I figured the first show of the year was going to be solid, but this tops it in my eyes. The best of the best has returned, and she's looking to fire people up! I can't wait!

Makoto Angel: ....How do they know each other exactly?

Tommy Dukes: *nose bleed*

Nerma: ....Ask Tracy....better yet don't....just forget about it.

Makoto Angel: Oh...alright.

6. EBW World Team #1 Contender: Swift/Trevor Mach[o]/Tack Angel/Generator beat Bashin Dan/Jammer/Benjamin/Vape[x] via Spinning Back Elbow x Burning Machismo -> Pin
-Main event time, as Swift lead the Wolves to the ring in the matching track suits that Trevor Mach curiously purchased for all of them. The Dan Club countered that by coming out in...well whatever they could grab at the last second, so Vape t-shirts. A frantic match between the two, with the #1 Contender matching up well to Swift, who was fighting through injuries from the Iron Man match. Dan didn't hold back though, attacking the weak points, like he learned from his battles with Firebrand X. The finish would come between Mach and Vape though, as the Rated M and World Tag Team Champion used his newly acquired move set to throw the Club off completely. A Spinning Back Elbow, and Mach somehow managed to lift Vape for the Burning Machismo and the pin.

Tommy Dukes: Incredible! I was going to point out that Mach looks like he's aged a lot in a short amount of time, but the he has the strength to lift Vape like that?! Last time I checked, I didn't think he had the knees or back for that, but he pulled it off effortlessly. That's a big win for the Wolves, and a loss for Dan Club, but Dan looks happy. He's congratulating his team on taking them that far. Now he's making a motion towards Swift. He's letting him know he's looking forward to one-on-one competition. At New Year Rising 2020, it will be Swift defending the EBW World Triple Crown Championship against Bashin Dan!

In the cold vacuum of space, the silent stillness was suddenly interrupted by a swirling of space time. Space itself seemed to be twisting and turning around, as a large rock blasted through, spinning at high speeds. The rock switched between light and darkness constantly as the it spun. A being was locked inside a pillar of solid ice, as figures emerged from rubble to stand up against creatures looming en masse to. A figure in denim and leather, with long brown hair and 90's style luka sunglasses (look it up) turned to the creatures, but then turned to the one watching this play out.

?: Hey! You need to wake up! Tell them! 1992! Tell them!

The Mach Residence

Trevor Mach-10 woke up in a cold sweat. The dream he had just witnessed seemed so lucid and real. Justice woke up from the sound of the startled Mach, and the older man made his way to the crib to pick him up.

Trevor Mach-10: There there, it's going to be alright. Heh, it's been such a long time since I had gotten to hold my son like this. My other son I mean. You're my son too. I'd like to think that we all were connected. All the Trevors looking out for all of the Justices. Is that a silly thought? You seem to think so. Are you laughing at me? You handsome little guy. Your Mother's new television show is coming on this morning. Do you want to watch it?

Captain Sparkle and the Sparkle Scouts!

Lady M's was in costume, tied up to a pole, as a hunched over man in a black rope entered the dungeon.

Captain Sparkle: *sigh* Dark Lord Patriarchy, your evil ways have gone too far. You work far too hard to keep down myself and the Sparkle Scouts, and *sigh* make sure that women aren't paid as much as men.

Dark Lord Patriarchy: Ahaha, no that is the work of my most recent creature I created called "The Wage Gap" MWAHAAHAHA! I trust those ropes aren't too tight?

Captain Sparkle: Actually *running her legs together* I wouldn't mind them being a little tighter.

Dark Lord Patriarchy: Huh? What?

Captain Sparkle: And you might want to gag me, cause it could get loud in here. Oh dear, my skirt is so short isn't it?

Dark Lord Patriarchy: This....*breaks character* What are you doing? This isn't in the script.

Narrator: Uh....can Captain Sparkle escape the clutches of toxic masculinity, or will the Sparkle Scouts come together to find their leader, just as soon as they make sure 50% of all corporations have female CEOs? Tune in next time kids!

The Mach Residence

A stunned Trevor Mach-10 turned off the television and stared at the blank screen.

Trevor Mach-10: Uh...maybe that's not for you. I must really be out of touch. Kids watch that?

Summers Television Studio

Director: Alright, what the hell was that?!

Lady M's: Huh? Oh sorry, guess I was into it.

"Dark Lord Patriarchy": You're weird.

Lady M's: Oh I'm weird? This show is such bullshit! What are you trying to teach kids here?

Tess: They're trying to teach them all the core values you despise. Women as victims. I know how much that drives you crazy.

Lady M's: Why the hell would you want that?

Tess: Because you don't, and because that's the world we live in. It's kill or be killed. It's something my children never quite picked up on. I tried being a good mother. A sweet mother. A nurturing mother. But I was left alone, and I quickly found out that I was being used. Used by them, and used by society. I didn't want to be a victim, and what's the best way to do that? Make sure every other woman is.

Lady M's: That a pretty fucked up way of looking at things, but I shouldn't be surprised coming from you. So you're going to pollute the hearts and minds or young girls to make them all victims?

Tess: No, I'm going to do that to piss you off, and remember, you're under contract. You can't do a thing to me or to your Father. I mean, it was a nice try being lewd, live of children's television, but-

Lady M's: Oh don't act like you're not trying to sell sex when you got me wearing this stuff. I have to do this show, and I have to read those lines, but other than that, I'm going to do what I want to do. If it becomes too much of a problem, you might have to just cancel the show.

Tess: ...Dangerous game you're playing Tali. A VERY dangerous game.

Lady M's: Game on bitch.
