River City Arena
Tommy Dukes: Tommy Dukes here, and things are getting started early before Rumble City! We're already seeing a Rumble in the River City, as the Wolves are mixing it up with Dead End. Even Swift is getting into it with one good arm! Tack Angel is nowhere to be seen! You have to worry if Dead End got to him or not! Finally, we have security breaking this one up!
Swift: That all you got Hotlanta? You and your boys are bitches!
Jamie OD: Oi! We're looking at the bitches! That nasty boo boo gonna keep you out of the ring much longer Swift?! Ahahaha!
Swift: You son of a bitch! Come here!
Rude: Whoa! Let's not make this any easier on them Swift. They want to fight a one armed Swift.
Swift: And I'd STILL kick their asses!
Hotlanta: You made me bleed Mach.
Trevor Mach: I was wondering if this was all my blood or not.
Hotlanta: You feel it leaving your body? Making you light headed? It's not something one can get used to. Their body fails them. Yours should have already, but here you are. How much longer are you willing to fight? How much harder are you going to make this on yourself?
Trevor Mach: The way I see it, I have to take down Tomo to get to the Bad Ass Rumble, which you happen to be a participant. Ain't that nice? You won't be able to duck me then.
Hotlanta: I do things on my terms no-
Trevor Mach: Your terms don't mean shit when that cage has you locked in with me Hot. I'm going to take you out before I climb that cage. Everyone else might be looking to make a quick escape, but I'll be looking for you.
Hotlanta: I've seen what's real and what isn't. I've peaked behind the curtain, at the miserable and bleak truth of it all. Most have forgotten, but I never will. It's the terror that leaves you screaming for years. That terror is creeping up on you. Why can't you just accept it. Make it easy on yourself?
Trevor Mach: Easy? The only time I'm going to be easy is when I'm killed by death.
Nerma: Welcome to River City! Welcome to ENN+! Welcome to Rumble City! The last big event on the way to Victory Explosion X4! Tonight, we will find out who will be challenging the Triple Crown World Champion at the MAIN EVENT of Victory Explosion! We'll find out who will be the World Champions going into that event as well. We're setting the stage people. This IS important! Got it? You really shouldn't treat the event before Victory Explosion as an easily missable B-show. Never do that! It's stupid, and kills interest and momentum. Tonight's main event will see two rings surrounded by a cage, but it won't be a chamber where to get eliminated, because that's forgettable, and everyone would forget that it's even happening. No, the rules are simple. The first to touch the ground escaping the cages will get the title shot. It's as simple as that. Of course, you have to fight your way out, and we have some of the toughest from EBW and EWA bringing the pain. With all that out of the way, let's-
Makoto Angel: REALLY hope that Subculture wins the Ladder Match against Cadmus.
Nerma: Yes...let's all hope for that. But, before that we have a new addition to the card. Trevor Mach challenged Tomo to a Last Man Fighting Match. He's got his fists taped up, and he's already got some blood on his cheek from a fight outside, but he's ready to go. This will be a great one. Let's-
Tommy Dukes: LET'S TAKE IT TO THE RING!
Nerma: AH!
Tommy Dukes: I just got here!
EBW: Rumble City
River City Arena, River City
ENN+
1. Last Man Fighting: Trevor Mach beat Tomo via Machigoye -> 10 Count Forfeit
-A Bushido reminiscent strong styled match, with fists flying and headbutts, with the Wolves and Dead End cheering from the outside. A Brainbuster, and a Flying Head Butt lead to Mach just barely making it to the ring post for the 10 count. No matter what Tomo brought on, Mach fought back. A late match comeback lead to a headbutt and knees in the clinch. Mach pulled Tomo in for the Machigoye, not once, but twice, and threw him to the mat. Tomo stumbled and fell back to the mat before he could reach his post, and the 10 Count was reached. Mach with the win.
Tommy Dukes: And Mach with the comeback over Tomo with this new Signature Match. I think you could add Critical Style to the mix, as they worked hard to finish that one quick. No wasted energy, just an all out fight. Mach ripping his shirt off, wiping the blood and throwing it at Hotlanta on the outside.
Nerma: He's helping up Tomo. Guess he still has respect for his former ally. Guess Mach will be good to go for the Bad Ass Rumble!
2. EBW Women's Television Championship: Hope Mach beat Kaie(c) via DQ -> Title Defense?
-Another hard hitting classic between the two rivals. Hope was in control, taking Kaie to the mat and slapping in the Ankle Lock after a long struggle. Kaie fought it, but looked ready to tap until Duvalie entered the ring and began to strangle Hope with his cord. An instant DQ, with Christina Angel rushing out to make the save and help Hope. The grappler wanted back into the ring, but Christina helped her to the back.
Makoto Angel: Good on Christina there. As she's been getting back into the swing of things, she was getting frustrated seeing Hope get attacked like that, so it's great that she's back to help her best friend. Of course this means the fighting between Hope and Kaie is far from over.
3. EBW World Tag Team Championships: Jamie OD(c)[o]/Jamie XL(c) beat Kinniku Mike/Amigo[x] via GTPK -> Pin -> Title Defense!
-A solid tag effort from the champs and challengers, with Mike and Amigo dead set on winning the belts. A hooded figure appeared, and drew the attention of Amigo, who let up on Jamie OD just enough for him to hit a high kick, and the GTPK for the pin and title defense. Kinniku Mike left the ring and turned the man around. He was stunned by what he saw, but was attacked by OD and XL before he could remove the hood.
Tommy Dukes: Dammit! The Tag Division needs solid Wrestling from great teams, but more outside shenanigans lead to the title defense. I think it's safe to say that the Hooligans will be entering Victory Explosion with the titles. Who did Mike see?
4. EBW Triple Crown World Championship: Bashin Dan(c) beat Jackson Kain<EWA> via Brave Clash -> Pin -> Title Defense!
-The Champion has his work cut out for him against Jackson Kain. The athletic, talented, and charismatic former Champion hit the Shadow Kick immediately, and threw Dan off his game. Kain was in control, but every pin attempt ended with Dan kicking out and fighting back to his feet, showing that signature HEART and SOUL. Dan hit a running forearm for a two count. Kain retreated to the outside. He pulled Dan to the outside and threw him head-first into the steps. Back in the ring, Jackson cinched in a headlock. The crowd stared a “Dan!” chant. Dan blocked a Northern Lights Suplex. After a failed attempt at a tornado DDT, Dan hit a modified suplex. Eventually, Kain countered and hit another Shadow Kick for a two count. Kain picked Dan up and lined him up for another Shadow Kick, but Dan dodged it and hit the kick to the midsection for the Brave Clash and the 1-2-3!
Tommy Dukes: Wow! An incredible showing from our Champion! He just beat a former World Champion! He beat an E1 Climax winner! A big win indeed, and Kain is showing respect now. He got a little heelish in the heat of things, but now he's extending the hand. What a great sport! Bashin Dan is looking rough, but he's insured that he'll be in the main event of Victory Explosion X4. He looks...less happy about that win as you would think. The Dan Club are all celebrating with him but-
Nerma: Someone is obviously missing.
Tommy Dukes: Oh....OOOOOOH.....oh....no I don't get it.
Nerma: *sigh*
5. Dark Star Fragment Ladder: Subculture beat Cadmus via Fragment Grab
-Subbie subbed for Tack on this one, in a first time match against Cadmus. The theatrical Cadmus kissed his sister, to the disgust of the crowd. Like a huge "EWWWW" rang out from the crowd. A bit of a relief to be honest. Glad I'm not the only one freaked out by...where was I? Subculture's no nonsense attitude didn't exactly mesh with Cadmus, who angered him with his overly dramatic movements, but that drew Subculture into a Dark Star Cutter, and the first use of the ladder, as Subculture nearly immediately lost. Late in the match, another Ladder was set outside, propped between the ring and guard rail to act like a table. Cadmus tried to flip Subculture over onto it, but he escaped and hit the KO Punch, sending Cadmus to the outside and right through the ladder. Subculture began to climb the ladder, with Cadmus slowly recovering to follow him. The two exchanged blows, but Subculture the striker won out, grabbing the Dark Star Fragment and the win.
Tommy Dukes: Subculture with the win! The first "loss" for Cadmus, but he's yet to be pinned or submit, so he can still make that claim. Still, he seems less that happy to lose that fragment as his sister Bellerophon....cradles him...*gags*
Makoto Angel: Hey, I need to go real quick!
Nerma: Makoto? Where are you going? Why are you leaving with Tonya Angel there? Why are they dragging Subculture to the back? What's going on here?! ANGEL PLOTS! I'M SUSPICIOUS! GETTING UPSET!
6. 6-Woman Tag: Lady M's[o]/Heather Mach/Christina Angel beat 21st Century Foxx[x]/Kei Akiyama/Kayla Sparkz via Death Dealer DDT -> Pin
-Fantastic action here, with an unexpected ending. M's and Foxx were throwing down back and forth, when Foxx Mask #4 ran out and tripped up 2K, attacking her own team. A confused Foxx ate elbows to the face, and got hit with the Death Dealer DDT for the pin and the win.
Nerma: Foxx Mask #4 with the turn on 21st Century Foxx?! We thought they might not be getting along, but I didn't expect this. M's got what she wanted on Foxx with that Death Dealer DDT.
Tommy Dukes: Wasn't it called the Death Metal DDT.
Nerma: Nope....not even for a second. Why would you think that?
Tommy Dukes: Huh.
7. EBW Women's World Championship: Erica(c) beat Faris Angel via Air Raid Crash -> Pin -> Title Defense!
-The hardest challenge for Erica yet, as Faris Angel brought the fight to the Women's World Champion. With Tracy and Nani on the outside watching the Eisenritter, this was going to be a fair fight. Erica changed up her game, trying to work Faris on the mat and take out the signature Angel kicks and the Wrist Clutches. Faris tried to work high risk off the top rope, hitting a Time Fire Kick off the top rope, but Erica working over the legs earlier lead to her crumpling to the mat. Erica managed to get up first and mocking slow clapped Faris, and tried pick her up for the finish, but Faris rolled her up for a near fall. Erica got angry and laid into Faris before finally lifting her up for the Air Raid Crash and the pin. Another Angel beaten, and another defense from Erica.
Nerma: Erica continues to dominate. We haven't have such a long term and unstoppable Champion in a long time. Christina is coming out too to help up Faris, and I think the Angels want to issue another challenge, but here comes Lady M's! Lady M's is stepping between them and getting into Erica's face! But what's this? Christina Angel wants another shot too! She's telling M's that it's her turn again, but M's is obviously disputing that. Security is coming out to prevent a fight, and I think that's smart. You have a lot of volatile elements in that ring right now. What's going to happen?
Suddenly, Tack Angel emerged from the back with a normal sized Makoto Angel. He kissed her on the cheek before running to the back.
Makoto Angel: I wish you would have told me the truth about "Tonya" Tack, that's all I'm saying. We would have understood! *clears throat* Sorry....sorry about all of that. Is the Women's World Championship match next? What have I missed?
Nerma: ....*sigh*
Tommy Dukes: Alright, let's clear out minds. Get calm....and get ready. Breathe. You ready? Cause it's time to push those rings together! Lower that cage! It's the Bad Ass Rumble! IT'S TIME FOR THE MAIN EVENT!
8. Bad Ass Rumble: Trevor Mach vs. Hotlanta vs. Tack Angel vs. Tomo vs. Jammer vs. Firebrand X vs. Subculture vs. Benjamin vs. Dick Wagner vs. Generator vs. Fray Tiburon vs. Vape vs. Viktor Geisman<EWA> vs. Vjhearson Golvoth<EWA> vs. w00t<EWA>
-The entrants entered the rings as the cages were lowered. The rules were announced, the bell rang, and it was wall out war. Nothing fancy here, just a bunch of fists and feet flying. Mach rushed at Hotlanta in the center of the action with Hotlanta rushing right back. Generator looked to leap off of EWA's Vjhearson Goltvoth's shoulders to get up the cage, with Jammer jumping off the ropes to take him to the mat. A cloaked member of EWA was dropping people left and right in the ring, and beckoning to Swift on the outside. He pulled off his hood to reveal the thought missing w00t, who laughed as he admitted to being the one who attacked Swift. Tack Angel was back in action, having been missing for over a week, and cleared his ring with kicks, until locking up with Firebrand X. Subculture was conflicted on who to attack, so he shrugged and tried leaving the ring instead. Tack and X both stopped what they were doing to drag him down. Subculture shouted that Tack owed him, but then Tack almost said "something" to Firebrand about Subculture, and the Street Dog quickly shut up, deciding to try and lay into his Father in law instead. Benjamin speared through an injured Tomo, who insisted on making it into the match, and climbed the cage, getting extremely close to escaping, before Viktor Geisman threw him off and almost escaped himself, until Jammer took his chance to escape and set it aside to avenge Benji, leaping across the cage to drop kick him back into the ring in a crazy spot. Mach and Hotlanta were bloody as they continued punching, kicking, and kneeing into each other. A head butt sent Hotlanta back, and Mach floored him with the Machigoye, he then stepped onto him to start climbing. At the same time Tack escaped the Fireslide, and and hit the Clutch Winged Angel on Firebrand X to keep him down before climbing up, with Subculture behind him just barely. In the chaos, two of the most decorated Wrestlers in EBW history managed to make it over the top and hit the ground at apparently the exact same time. They both looked at each other bewildered as the bell sounded, and they were declared the co-winners!Winners: Tack Angel and Trevor Mach

River City Arena - EWA Locker Room
As the EWA crew were getting dressed, an angry Swift kicked in the door, and took his arm out of the sling to grab the nearest chair.
Swift: WHERE IS HE?!
Mr. Pirkle: Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Calm down Swift! Calm down! Who are you talking about?!
Swift: You know DAMN WELL who I'm talking about! You hire that sniveling punk w00t?! Then he shows up and talks shit to me! I want to know where he is NOW!
Mr. Pirkle: I don't know! Honest! He's been missing for a long time! He was under a pay per appearance deal, and we just assumed he was done! I'm not lying to you! I was pleased when he returned and wanted in the match, but I didn't know he did it to mess with you.
Swift: He's the one that attacked me! I know it! I know he is! You tell him to do that?!
Mr. Pirkle: No! No! I promise! I swear!
Swift: I'll wrap this around your skull. None of these assholes are fast enough to stop me. I promise you that!
Mr. Pirkle: I wouldn't lie to you! Especially not right now! Come on Swift, you can trust me. Remember, I was the one that got you into EBW. I was the one that hired you, put you on this path!
Swift looked down at the sling on the ground, his injured arm, and all the scars and stitches in eye sight, and threw down the chair.
Swift: *sigh* Should I really be grateful for that?
?
Jeff Andonuts found his way back to the hidden mobile bunker of Mr. Face, which was now underneath River City.
Mr. Face: Well, I thought we were hiding better these days.
Jeff Andonuts: I might have a tracking device on your bunker?
Mr. Face: ...Should I except any other surprises?
Jeff Andonuts: No, I just wanted to be able to find you when I needed you.
Dr. Yaggis: Ah, Doctor Andonuts! It's great that you stopped by. At some point, you have to let me examine that prosthetic you made for yourself. Marvelous craftsmanship.
Jeff Andonuts: Uh...another time, but I'm glad you're here. You're the reason in fact.
Dr. Yaggis: Is it about the fragments of Triton? I really want to get my hands on one.
Mr. Face: We're aware that the Angels have come into possession of one.
Jeff Andonuts: No, it's about Death quite frankly.
Moments later, they were in front of a large computer, as Dr. Yaggis typed away.
Dr. Yaggis: So you need to find this Death fellow why again? You said he's not the one you're really looking for.
Jeff Andonuts: He might be able to tell me more about what's coming.
Mr. Face: I'd say how do you deal with Death, but Threed is proof positive that it can happen.
Jeff Andonuts: Those dead are in a state of normalcy for them. That's just life, and how they live it. What would happen if maybe they were suddenly given a new life? What if they were suddenly filled with aggression?
Mr. Face: You think that's a possibility?
Jeff Andonuts: It could be. I'm exploring all options.
Dr. Yaggis: Well, I hope we can help you with your research. In return though, I would implore you to-
Jeff Andonuts: I will ask Tack if you can have the fragment of Triton.
Dr. Yaggis: I would very much like to examine one. Thank you. Look, I have a location for you. He was seen at a traffic light yesterday in Summers....eating a doughnut. Where does it go? He's a skeleton.
Jeff Andonuts: Summers....not so easy to get into these days.
Mr. Face: Hey, remember who you're with. We can get anywhere.
Jeff Andonuts: I just worry, because in the previous reality, Mayor Rex was complicit with "Entity V". He was working with the IronBloods. Now Death is suddenly in Summers? I hope it doesn't mean anything. We need to be fast if we're going, because I don't think we have much more time.
Mr. Face: What makes you say that.
Jeff Andonuts: w00t was at Rumble City tonight.
Mr. Face: So?
Jeff Andonuts: w00t is supposed to be dead.
Mr. Face: I mean I know you probably don't like the guy but-
Jeff Andonuts: No, I mean he was CRUSHED by debris. He is SUPPOSED to be DEAD! Remember those unmarked graves in Threed?
Mr. Face: Oh....oh shit.
Jeff Andonuts: Yeah. Oh shit.
Star Prince and the Defenders of Everything
The heroic Star Prince stood in front of a last army of the dead, with the evil Skull Master standing behind them all.
Star Prince: Stars prevail me! How can I continue to fight off this army of the dead by myself?
Skull Master: You can not! The sins of the past have finally caught up with you, and the rest of the "Defenders"!
Star Prince: You vile fiend! I thought the powers of the dead were lost to you, when the rest of your kind were destroyed!
Skull Master: I found another way, and now I will make you pay and extinguish life once and for all! I promise you this. A Star Prince WILL FALL! AHAHAHA!
Star Prince: ....
Narrator: How will the Star Prince get out of this predicament? Find out next time on Star Prince and the Defenders of Everything!

The show kicked off with Dead End heading to the ring....but they were not alone.
Tommy Dukes: Tommy Dukes here, and welcome to Xcite. We're not wasting any time. We're in Victory Explosion season, and we don't have time for that. We're opening hot with Dead End heading to the ring, but they aren't alone. Cadmus and Bellerophon have joined them, as well as a figure in a cloak. We've seen these cloaked figures for weeks now.
Nerma: At first we thought they were the same person, but we now know that some are men and some are women. One of them was w00t. This one can't be w00t can it? I mean, he already too his cloak off.
Makoto Angel: True, but he has a grudge with 3 Wolf Moon, and these men would be the perfect ones to align with.
Tommy Dukes: True, but Hotlanta beat w00t on his way out of EBW.
Nerma: True, but the enemy of my enemy is my best friend.
Makoto Angel: True, but w00t has such a massive ego.
Tommy Dukes: True, but-
Nerma: Quiet. They're about to talk.
Tommy Dukes: Oh.
Hotlanta: Could all of you shut up. Stop talking....stop breathing for all I care. We have business to discus. Namely, what happened at Rumble City. We saw two cowards duck their challenges, and we found a common ally didn't we Cadmus?
Cadmus: Indeed. You think you can just take from me without finishing this Tack Angel? I allowed Subculture in that match....just that match. He's not a substitute for what you're owed.
Hotlanta: Same problem for me. Trevor Mach must think that leaving that cage meant this was over between us. It isn't. The two of you can not run from us. You can't hide. If you think you're moving on, you're crazy, especially after what we've discovered.
Cadmus: Are you talking about our friend here? When we found him, things started to make a lot of sense It certainly changes everything.
The music for 3 Wolf Moon hit, as Trevor Mach and Tack Angel made their way to the stage.
Trevor Mach: Shut up! Just shut up already! You want us out here, we'll come out here! I'm sure you have more of that speech memorized, but save it. We're here.
Tack Angel: You guys are forgetting that the goal of the Rumble WAS to escape the cage. We were playing the objective.
Trevor Mach: You can't say I didn't hand you your ass on my way out Hot. I was on fire at Rumble City. Tomo couldn't stop me. You couldn't stop me. Now I have a main event slot at Victory Explosion. That doesn't mean I don't have time in between, so chill out before you get too worked up. I have time to deal with you.
Tack Angel: And I'm getting tired of having you mess with me and my family Cadmus. You might have had more time to practice your "fine speech", and I might be reading my stuff off a napkin, but I want you to know, that I'm ready to take you on whenever....except for tonight, cause we're in the main event.
Hotlanta: And taking those rings from fakes and phonies will be a pleasure. That's right. Fakes and phonies. One of you is not who they appear to be. I mean it should be obvious by now. I can't be the only one who noticed Trevor Mach was replaced by an older man for a couple months right? We still don't know just who or what you really are. My gut was telling me Death, but now I think it's something else. The guy in the cloak might know. Then again....
Cadmus: Who is the Star Prince really?
Backstage
Nerma: Nerma here...having had to run from ringside...which is great for the cardio? I'm standing by with the Triple Crown World Champion Bashin Dan. Dan, you just saw what happened out there. How do you feel about it, and how do you feel about the main event of Victory Explosion X4?
Bashin Dan: What the Wolves and Dead End are doing is between them. Not my place to get involved. That being said, I need Trevor and Tack to deal with it, win or lose, and then turn their attention my way, because people are already expecting this to be the biggest main event in Victory Explosion history, and I intend to prove them RIGHT!
Nerma: That sounds awesome. Got another question. We saw that figures in cloaks have been on the attack recently, and we're now wondering if maybe one of them attacked you ?
Bashin Dan: Maybe....or maybe not. It's not important right now. Not to me. Right now, I need to heal up, get in the best shape of my life, and after it's all said and done with Victory Explosion, then I will get back to this matter. Whoever you were, if you want another shot at me before then, just challenge me to my face. I don't back down.
Nerma: ...Care to comment on what's going with you and Hope?
Bashin Dan: ....No...no comment. Thank you.
As Dan walked away...
Benjamin: He might not be thinking about the attacker, but I am.
Vape: Same here.
Jammer: How could you be when you're so busy endorsing everything, literally everything that comes your way?
Vape: I have a problem!
Benjamin: Jammer, by the way, I wanted to thank you for backing me up in the cage. Sorry I ever doubted you.
Jammer: We're all getting a little paranoid these days. Don't worry about it. Right now, we need to figure out who is trying to take out Dan. He's the meal ticket right now.
Vape: Luckily for you, the Vape and Benji Detective Agency is on the case!
Vape and Benjamin suddenly pulled out bubble pipes and monocles.
Jammer: ...Yeah good luck with that.

1. Women's Singles: Foxx Mask #4 beat Heather Mach via Flying Press -> Pin
-The 4th Foxx Mask continues to show off impressive strength. Heather fought back and almost took off her mask, but ate a Backbreaker for her trouble. The large and power athlete went to the top rope for a Flying Press and a pin to win the match.
Nerma: She's great whoever she is. I saw a bit of skin. She has dark skin. I think I saw a tattoo, but not enough to confirm if we know her or not. I'm going to say not. This is someone new, and they are definitely welcome.
2. EBW Women's World Tag Team Championships: Erica[o]/Duvalie beat Kimber Blaze(c)/Lt. Lacy Wagner(c)[x] via Air Raid Crash -> Pin -> NEW EBW Women's World Tag Team Champions!
-A big challenge thrown down after the House of M's aligned with their enemies, Women's World Champion Erica and Duvalie pushed the House of M's duo to their limits. Once again, Lt. Lacy Wagner had to deal with her drunken father on the outside, and got caught in the Air Raid Crash, as Duvalie used the cord in her sleeve to choke Blaze. Erica got the 1-2-3, and Eisenritter captured the World Tag Team Championships.
Nerma: Unbelievable! Well, I mean it's plausible, but I didn't imagine! Eisenritter have all the gold! The Women's Division belongs to Erica and her crew, but wait, we're got Lady M's and Christina Angel coming down again to issue challenges. How is that going to work out? M's needs to stick around. Her long awaited singles match with 21st Century Foxx is next.
3. Women's Singles: Lady M's beat 21st Century Foxx via Death Dealer DDT -> Pin
-Hard hitting affair, with Foxx taking M's off her game with a chair shot to the head before they entered the ring, making it nice and legal. Foxx was dead set on ending the "hype" around Lady M's, for herself and a couple of people in Summers that want to see it happen too. M's fought back after a stiff elbow to the face broke Foxx's nose. Kei Akiyama and Kayla Sparkz tried to get involved, but suddenly Foxx Mask #4 rushed down and took them out. As Foxx asked why, M's hit a kick to the midsection and hit the Death Dealer DDT For the win.
Makoto Angel: And that's that! Wow, I'm surprised that M's got that unlikely help, but I'm glad to see her win. Maybe now she can stop doing all those lewd things in her children's show.
Nerma: No, she's been doing that by choice.
Makoto Angel: ....Oh dear.
4. 3-Team Tag: Kinniku Mike/Amigo vs. Firebrand X/Subculture vs. Dorado Mask/Hex No Limit ended in a No Contest
-A fantastic opening to a big match that could have told us who would be challenging the Hooligans at Victory Explosion was ended early, when said Hooligans came out and attacked all three teams, ending the match in a No Contest.
Tommy Dukes: Dammit! Those ginger bastards won't let up. They intend to destroy the Tag Division any way that they can, just because they can. It sucks! I hope we get a team that can show them a thing or two at Victory Explosion....cause if don't, the titles will mean as little as the ones up north. I don't want a division like Sports Entertainment World. It's literally the worst.
5. EBW World Team Championships: Hotlanta/Tomo/Jamie OD/Jamie XL[o] beat Trevor Mach(c)/Tack Angel(c)[x]/Generator(c)/Rude(c) via Big Boot -> Pin -> NEW EBW World Team Champions!
-Main event time as the Wolves took on Dead End, with the Team Rings on the line. Heavy hitting action in the ring, as Hotlanta tagged in first to get a piece of Mach, and the War Wolf obliged. Shenanigans? Of course shenanigans, as Swift was nearly attacked again by w00t, who continued his manic laughing from Rumble City, while blending into the crowd. The other cloaked figure stood on the side of the ring, and revealed his face to a stunned Tack Angel, who was clobbered by a Big Boot from Jamie XL and pinned. Dead End with the victory and the World Team Championship Rings.
Tommy Dukes: Tack did NOT see that boot coming. He's going to have a Size 12 bruise along his face.
The teams backed off into separate corners as the cloaked figure entered the ring. The man took off his hood to reveal.....Tack Angel? Looking like Tack Angel from several years prior.
Cadmus: Behold! The ultimate lie has been exposed! Star Prince is NOT Tack Angel, because Tack Angel, the REAL Tack Angel is standing RIGHT HERE! YOU REPLACED HIM! YOU THOUGHT YOU KILLED HIM, BUT YOU DIDN'T! Cadmus Industries found him, and I brought him here to expose you!
Tack Angel: But it's not true!
"Tack Angel": But it is. You son of a bitch. You took everything from me! You took my WIFE! AMY! YOU TOOK HER! Christina! Rebecca! Helios! My kids. MY KIDS! You've turned me into a joke! I'm going to kill you! Mark my words! I'M GOING TO KILL YOU!

A panicking Tack Angel was given some grape juice by Reno.
Reno: Calm down buddy. You look like you just say a ghost.
Tack Angel: I HAVE seen ghosts, and I can't drink this. I'll get flush!
Swift: Well you get flushed, and I'll get wasted.
Rude: I hear that.
Generator: Yeah....why not?
Trevor Mach: You guys need to relax. Rematches exist remember? We'll get them back.
Swift: I think we're more freaked out about the second Tack right now.
Tack Angel: YEAH!
Trevor Mach: Oh that? So what, it's a fake....probably.
Tack Angel: PROBABLY!?
Trevor Mach: He looked a lot like you, and thought the Star Prince shtick was weird. But, that's almost too on the nose, so it could really go either way.
Tack Angel: Gee thanks pal!
Trevor Mach: Relax. Of course I'm on your side. I don't feel any malicious intent from you, but that dude, was full of it.
Tack Angel: How do you know? You say it like you already know things. You've been acting that way a lot lately. You told me some of what happened, and what you are now, but not enough. What are you really? Is Hotlanta right about-
Trevor Mach: What? Death? No. Not even close. He just...doesn't get that there is more than death on the other side. Just consider me an "Intercessor", and let's leave it at that. Aight bro?
Tack Angel: I will...just as soon as I figure out what that word means.
Saturn Cafe
Jammer, Vape, and Benjamin were sitting at the usual table...
Vape: So I just think she's really pretty is all.
Benjamin: And I understand that, but we're working on the case remember?
Vape: Right! Our Detective Agency! So, who would have the most to gain from attacking Dan?
Benjamin: Right now it's Trevor and Tack, but they wouldn't have known at the time that they were winning at Rumble City. Besides Trevor seemed fine with Dan dating Hope.
Vape: Yeah...about that. Now that Hope is single, do you think-
Jammer: Don't EVEN think about it Vape. We're not doing that to our friend.
Vape: Right. You're right. It's my damn libido. It keeps getting in the way of my brain functions! I just need to find someone to love! Someone to-
Time seemed to slow down as Vape saw a beautiful sight enter the room. She tossed back her hair and smiled as she opened the door for the rest of her group. It was Valarie Dorado with the Lucha Bastards. She smiled as she walked towards the counter, but it continued to feel like slow motion for Vape.
Vape: oooooovvvvvvvvvv....
Jammer: Vape? Vape? Vapeboy? Vaper? Vapetrain? He's gone.
Benjamin: What is he looking at?
Jammer: Valarie Dorado? You sweet on her bro?
Vape: vvvvvvvv....
Jammer: Yeah yeah yeah. Knock it off! Wake up!
Vape: Huh?! I was just-
Jammer: Drooling at Valarie over there. Can't say I blame you. Go talk to her.
Vape: What?! Me?! No way, I couldn't possibly.
Benjamin: She's nicer now Vape. I'm sure she'd talk to you. You're quite the catch.
Jammer: I wouldn't go that far!
Vape: Hey!
Jammer: You need more finesse than your usual pick up lines brother.
Vape: Your pick up lines are nothing by basketball references.
Jammer: And ladies LOVE basketball!
Benjamin: I still need to see a game myself.
Jammer: Irrelevant right now! Don't turn this around on me. You go over there, and you give her your best game Vape! Do it!
Vape: Fine! Fine I will!
Vape fixed himself up and made his way to the counter, where Val was ordering food for herself and the Lucha Bastards. Vape cleared his throat.
Vape: Umm, excuse me Valarie?
Valarie Dorado: Yes?
Vape: I...uh....
Hex No Limit: WATCH OUT!
Vape: Huh?!
Hex No Limit: VALARIE WATCH OUT! HE'S ATTACKING!
Vape: I AM?!
Hex quickly jumped onto the counter and wrapped his legs around Vape's neck and hitting a Hurracanrana that sent him thudding onto the floor.
Benjamin: *spits drink*
Jammer: What the hell did he say?!
Threed Graveyard
It was a spooky and foggy night in Threed....as per usual. Jeff Andonuts and Apple Kid were searching the grave sights that were dug up again.
Jeff Andonuts: See? When they brought me on, I didn't really know what to make of this.
Apple Kid: Like I do? It could just be more Zombies.
Jeff Andonuts: I thought that too, but they normally don't bury people anymore in Threed. They just wait for them to get up. These are new, unmarked graves. It's just unusual.
Apple Kid: And you think it's related to what Bacon told us? Interesting. What can we gleam from just looking at the holes though?
Jeff Andonuts: Actually, I was hoping to find a couple of guys to help us. Oh there they are.
Apple Kid: Who? Oh...those guys. Of course.
Randy no Kachi and LG Rod were leaning against a brick wall talking.
Randy no Kachi: So she asks me if I have my finger on the pulse of society, and I said "HAVEN'T FELT A PULSE IN YEARS!"
LG Rod: That is hilarious because we are dead.
Randy no Kachi: I KNOW!
LG Rod: AHAHA!
Jeff Andonuts: Excuse me guys? Can we-
Randy no Kachi: Who goes there?!
LG Rod: We're going to sing about spooky ghosts and stuff if you....oh wait...it's just Jeff and Apple Kid. Hey guys!
Jeff Andonuts: Hello, it's been awhile.
Apple Kid: Yeah, you guys give up trying to win the tag titles?
Randy no Kachi: It gets more difficult the more we decompose.
Apple Kid: Really? Cause you guys look great...for being dead.
LG Rod: Takes a lot of work to this good. I get out of my coffin and it's like and hour or two to put my face on....literally.
Jeff Andonuts: Guys....I'm so sorry.
Randy no Kachi: Nah, it's cool. We get to hang out in a graveyard for eternity. Lots of interesting stuff to keep us occupied. Plus, all of the singing.
LG Rod: We're getting better at it.
Apple Kid: Yeah, what's up with the singing?
Randy no Kachi: I dunno. They just like to! So we do it too. *shrugs* You just never know when-
Suddenly spooky yet catchy music began to play.
LG Rod: Oh no, here it comes. Guys, they're friends alright? Hey. *sigh* Too late.
Four different ghouls appeared from behind their graves and began to sing and sway.
Ghosts: ♫ On this night your breath is taken, for you see the dead awaken. Listen well our living friends, and hear how we all met our end! ♫
Ghost Captain: ♫ I was a Captain at my ship's wheel. A heart of gold, and nerves of steel. I fell overboard, one night so dark, and then I swam into a shark! ♫
Well Dressed Ghost Woman: ♫ I was a debutante, the bell of the ball. Boys chased me from Spring to Fall. There wasn't a situation I couldn't handle, until my dress touched that lit candle. ♫
Unassuming Ghost: ♫ We can skip me! ♫
Jeff Andonuts: Huh....is that it?
Bowler Hat Ghost: Y-yeah....I was wondering the same thing. That was it?
Unassuming Ghost: Yep! Skip me!
Bowler Hat Ghost: Alright, I'll go then. No one has ever skipped before. I'm sorry. ♫ I was a miner digging for gold. Then one day I hit the mother lode. I grabbed a cigar, gave it a light. Turns out it was dynamite! ♫
Unassuming Ghost: Wow. Great story man. Everyone did great. We can go back to our graves now right?
Ghost Captain: Nope. The rules are that we ALL have to tell our tale. You're up new guy. Come on.
Unassuming Ghost: I'd....I'd really rather not. My death was a whole "you had to be there" situation. You know? It needs so much context. I don't want to waste anyone's time.
Ghost Captain: We have....nothing but time. Sing! Now!
Unassuming Ghost: Alright! Fine! I'll go! ♫ One dark night with the moon so red, what happened killed me, and now I'm dead. ♫ There! I did it!
Jeff Andonuts: Is he allowed to sound vague like that?
Ghost Captain: He is NOT.
Unassuming Ghost: Alright fine, it's just....going to sound a lot worse than it is. ♫ At 12 years old, I sat on a 9 volt. It gave my hiney a quick little jolt. I liked how it felt, so I did it a lot, but I built up a tolerance to lower watts. Then I realized there's not bigger volt, then the shock that comes from a lightning bolt. So one stormy night I went to my roof, and I put a metal pole in my a-
Ghost Captain: Alright! That's enough! I get it now! I makes perfect sense! You don't have to finish that song....EVER AGAIN!
Unassuming Ghost: Well now you're all looking at me weird.
Ghost Captain: It's cause you're weird dude!
Apple Kid: ...That happen often?
LG Rod: That's the new guy. Ghost Millennials, am I right?
Jeff Andonuts: So, we were wondering if you know who came out of those graves?
LG Rod and Randy no Kachi suddenly turned more pale....but like how though?
LG Rod: Uh...we're not supposed to talk about that.
Randy no Kachi: We were given an ultimatum not to.
LG Rod: Grave consequences....pun kind of intended....but I'm also terrified.
Apple Kid: What are you two scared of? You're dead. Is there something worse than Death?
Randy no Kachi: No. Death is the worst. Death is truly the worst.
Apple Kid: Well you're already-
Jeff Andonuts: No Apple...Death the name....not the concept.
Apple Kid: Ooooooh. Oh no.
Jeff Andonuts: Right....oh no.

Saturn Fine Dining Restaurant
Hotlanta was sitting at the table in a suit, as he spoke to another figure in a trench coat and hat.
Hotlanta: You have everything you want right? Then no problem waiting a little longer to pull the trigger. Look, we have no problem with you doing what you're doing. No problem at all. Just give me a chance to right some wrongs first. That's all I want. You've got time...in fact it's meaningless to you. You have all the time. Alright, glad we have an understanding. When the time comes, we'll stand with you.
The man left as Tommy Dukes approached the table.
Tommy Dukes: Uh...Hotlanta? I'm here to tape the sit down interview.
Hotlanta: I know you idiot, that's why I'm here. Thought I'd at least have a moment living the good life before we delve into the nightmare that has been the last 10 years of my life.
Tommy Dukes: Oh....how are the breadsticks? Can I have one? No? I'll put it back.
Tommy Dukes: Synthwave huh? Welcome back to the Studio for another one of our Neon Nights! I'm Tommy Dukes, and what you just saw was a clip from a sit down interview with Hotlanta, that you will be able to see tonight, right before the main event, where we will be crowing the 1st ever EBW Neon Champion! It's been a great tournament, giving guys a chance that don't normally get it. They've excelled, and they're going to make this title worth something! We've had so damn many in the past, it's worrisome to me whenever we introduce another one. Right Apple?
Apple Kid: Huh? Yeah....sure.
Tommy Dukes: You look distracted. Are you looking for Pete Twinkle and Greg Stink? Yeah, Nerma tried to pawn them off on us, but I got Jennings to put them in as hosts for EBW's weekly slot at the Home Shopping Network. Did you know that was still a thing?
Apple Kid: Hey.....who do you think Hotlanta was talking to?
Tommy Dukes: What? I'm not sure. He left right as a I got there.
Apple Kid: Right. Of course. I'm ready for action if you are. Say your line.
Tommy Dukes: Let's take it to the ring!
EBW: Neon Nights
Studio B, Saturn City
ENN
1. Singles: Tomo beat Fighter Daron via Northern Lights Suplex -> Pin
-A quick match up, with the too confident Fighter Daron being fed to Tomo. A Northern Lights Suplex ended the match mercifully.
Tommy Dukes: Wow...that sucks for Daron AND Arliss.
Arliss Michaels: I wouldn't say that.
Apple Kid: Where do you keep coming from?
Arliss Michaels: Don't worry about it! I have new clients that will help reinforce my position in this fine company, and help me sell a lot more merch, cause THAT is where the money is apparently. People call them "Meme Shirts" whatever that means. All I know is memes equal money, so the more of them the better.
Tommy Dukes: Well who do you have as new clients?
Arliss Michaels: Fighter Daron and Dangerous D are now member of the Heat Parade, my newest cli-
Tommy Dukes: AHAHAHAHAHA!
Arliss Michaels: What? I'm told that heat is good in Wrestling, so I got the guys with HEAT in the name!
Apple Kid: You're aware they have a serial killer who can't be stopped hunting them right now right?
Arliss Michaels: Oh totally, and these things happen. I can't tell you how many times I've had to deal with serial killers going after me and my clients....mostly me actually. I have it handled. Tonight, it's a Handicap Match, whatever that means. I just know that Chad Salad thought it might be a good idea. Currently trying to get a Chad Salad Salad on the market.
Apple Kid: Great....this will be a massacre.
2. Handicap: Ripper beat Chad Salad/Robert Sandwich[x] via Chokeslam -> Verbal Submission
-It was a massacre.
Tommy Dukes: Sandwich submits because Ripper was about to cleave him with a machete! Why is the ref letting him bring that to the ring?!
Apple Kid: You going to tell Ripper not to bring it?
Tommy Dukes: Wait a minute, a man is running out of the crowd with a gun?! DUCK! He just shot Ripper! He's trying to get the Heat Parade out of here? Who is that?
Arliss Michaels: My insurance policy. Timmy Jervis!
Apple Kid: Who? Arliss? Where does he keep going?!
3. Women's Singles: Foxx Mask #4 beat Gold via Powerbomb -> Pin
-More power moves from Foxx Mask #4, who continues to shine and stand out, even after taking down the other members of her group. She continued to wear the mask against a distracted Gold, who didn't seem to be 100% in the match. Foxx #4 hit the Powerbomb for the pin.
Tommy Dukes: Foxx Mask #4 is undefeated so far in Singles action. Anyone else notice that? She "Shenominal"? Eh? Eh?
Apple Kid: ...Don't do that. Don't ever do that again.
Tommy Dukes: ...Oh...yeah alright. *sniff*
Saturn Fine Dining Restaurant
Tommy Dukes: So, I'm here with Hotlanta, the Television Champion, and 1/4th of the World Team Champions. You're finally getting your due as the leader of Dead End and-
Hotlanta: Getting me due? This is getting my due? You have no clue Dukes. Nobody could know what I've been through...except for Trevor Mach. He gets it, because he was there. The two of us, were meant to be the heralds of an apocalypse. Remember that "THING" that happened in Onett that no one likes to talk about? I helped dammit! I helped stop it! What did I get in return?! NOTHING AND NOTHING KEPT HAPPENING FOR YEARS! Then, I try and make some moves, and I join w00t and Swift and Generator, as we put together a plan of action, and it failed, and the IronBloods failed. I was never the problem. NEVER THE PROBLEM! w00t failed. Swift failed. Generator failed. Ortega failed. But me? I've survived, as I've always done, with demons in my past, and the traumas to go with them. I was a vessel. I was used in more ways than one. Meanwhile, Trevor Mach got to be a success and have a family. You don't know him...not for certain. Even I wasn't 100%. I thought he was the living embodiment of Death, but I've recently been educated on that subject by a third party.
Tommy Dukes: Then what is he?
Hotlanta: Heh....he's the "War Wolf" of course. That's what he wants you to believe, that that's all that he is, but I know better, because I remember. You don't. You have no idea what happened, but I do! YOU DIED TREVOR MACH! YOU DIED AND YOU'RE STILL HERE! YOU PREVAIL AGAIN! HOW!? HOW DOES IT KEEP HAPPENING?!
Tommy Dukes: Uh....Hotlanta, you're scaring the other customers.
Hotlanta: Like I care! He calls himself the "Intercessor". Do you know what that means? A person who intervenes on behalf of another, especially by prayer. Now what does that sound like to you? You figure that out, and you have your fucking answer! This interview is over. I've lost my appetite.
Tommy Dukes: ....Well if he's not going to eat it I am.
4. EBW Neon Championship Decision: Benjamin beat Fray Tiburon via Spear -> Pin -> 1st Ever EBW Neon Champion!
-Match of the night, saw the scrappy Benjamin put on his best performance to date, but Fray Tiburon, who had been struggling for a title to call his own for quite some time, finally looked to get the win, after taking Benji to the top rope for a Brainbuster. 1-2-KICKOUT! Benjamin showed the heart and fire of a deserving champion, as he went full throttle with a Spear that lead to the pin and the win.
Tommy Dukes: He did it! Benjamin with the win! An incredible come from behind win. The gracious Fray Tiburon, the good Friar, handling the neon soaked belt to Benjamin. It's so colorful isn't it? I love it. Benjamin is the 1st EVER EBW Neon Champion! See you next-
Apple Kid: Oh wait, before we go, Tack stuff!
Tommy Dukes: Huh?
Apple Kid: Have to keep certain demographics engaged. So what's up with the other Tack?
Tommy Dukes: The fake one?
Apple Kid: Some believe he's the real one. I mean, he looks exactly like Tack did circa 2010. He even have the spiked tips and blue shirt!
Tommy Dukes: Yeah, but are you saying that we've been dealing with an imposter for years?!
Apple Kid: ....Find out MAYBE on Xcite.
Tommy Dukes: Oh, I see what you did there.

EBW World
Nerma: Nerma here at the desk for EBW World. It's great to have this back. If I had to hear Twinkle and Stink talk about feminine products one more time, I would going to kill at least one of them....probably Greg. He seemed too stupid to breathe without a reminder. So...anything big coming up in your lives? Anything? No? That's a shame cause we have VICTORY EXPLOSION X4! I get more excited every week! I wasn't implying that you're all lonely kissless virgins with nothing to do....just most of you, but EBW loves you, and EBW wants you to join us AT THE DOME! We have a little time before that though, as the card of cards begins to take shape. We already have a colossal main event, the biggest one ever in my opinion, and is also the opinion that EBW wants spread, but I in no way see that as weird that we share it. It's just a coincidence! We have an Xcite card for you now, so let's peek a look!
EBW: Xcite
Sportaseum, Mid-South
ENN
1. Women's Tag: Lady M's/Heather Mach vs. Christina Angel/Nani Angel
2. Tag: Dorado Mask/Hex No Limit vs. Magnum PT/Dick Wagner
3. Tag: Kinniku Mike/Amigo vs. Subculture/Firebrand X
4. Singles: Tack Angel vs. Cadmus
5. Women's Singles: Foxx Mask #4 vs. 21st Century Foxx
6. EBW Television Championship: Hotlanta(c) vs. Generator
Nerma: We're heading into the contested territory of Mid-South, who really need a better EFL team to be honest. They are one of the teams I picked in the fantasy league with Tommy, and they're KILLING ME! EWA can watch from a distance, as we show Mid-South some big time Wrestling. The main event is a Television Championship bout, with Generator getting a chance to challenge his long time rival Hotlanta. These two have been at each other's throats for a very very VERY long time. I'm surprised that Generator is taking the shot, as rumor had it Trevor Mach might have been next in line to face Hotlanta, but maybe the Rumble City outcome changed all of that. Tack Angel....real or fake...will taking on Cadmus. Big match there. They finally have that one-on-one encounter. The match I'm looking forward to is right at the beginning. M's and Heather Mach will be taking on Christina and Nani Angel. A little old school vibe with M's and Nani on opposite sides. This match was made because M's and Christina can't seem to decide who will get the next shot at Erica Eisen, the unstoppable Queen of the Division. Her words....not mine. We take it now to M's, who answered the question about why she should be the #1 Contender, and what she would say to the 3-Way match.
Lady M's: Do I look like I want to screw around?! No. I'm not playing here. I say no to a 3-Way match, because that's one extra way that Erica can slip out of a loss. She needs to face the inevitable. I AM the inevitable for her. It's always been that way. Going all the way back to her debut. She wanted to be me. She buried me in the ground once upon a time. She thought she was Perfection. She thought she was "Elevated". I don't know what Eisenritter means, and to be honest, I don't give a shit. I came back for this, because no one else could get it done. Christina, if you want to try and prove me wrong, you have to go through me now, because I'm tired of watching Angel after Angel screw this up. You really don't want this. Look at what I'm wearing....back in the sailor suit, embarrassing the embarrassment they've tried to impose on me. Look at my hands....covered in blood...21st Century Foxx's blood. Because she tried to get in my way too. This tag match is your last warning. I won't give you another. This isn't about respect, I'm not trying to disrespect you here. Your family brought what they could to the fight, but I'm going to finish it. It's as simple as that.
Degrees Office
Degrees-4 looked at this chart, and then back to Swift, and then back to his chart, and then back to Swift.
Swift: ...What's taking so long. Is something wrong?
Degrees-4: Depends. If I don't clear you are you going to attack me? I mean look at me Swift. I've got burns still healing from my garage exploding in my face. I'd really rather you not do that.
Swift: *sigh* Dammit, I just want to be cleared for Victory Explosion! Is that so damn hard to do?! They won't let me compete if you don't. Just tick the damn box! I'm fine!
Degrees-4: Are you? Are you really?
Swift: ...I decide if I'm fine or not.
Degrees-4: That's all well and good but I decide if you're cleared to compete. The dislocated shoulder was aggravated when w00t attacked you, and a concussion is nothing to take lightly.
Swift: I've been sitting in that oxygenation chamber every damn day! What more do you want?!
Degrees-4: Nothing....you're cleared.
Swift: Huh? Wait....then why did you-
Degrees-4: You're more appreciative of it now when you assumed it wasn't going to happen right?
Swift: ....
Degrees-4: You're welcome.
Swift: .....
Degrees-4: ...Oh shit.
Swift: No no...as long as you're legit...I'll spare you.
Degrees-4: I would like that very much.
Swift: I'm out of here.
Degrees-4: Sounds great. Don't forget to schedule a follow up! Swift? Yeah, I'm sure he did just that. Walked right up to my receptionist and everything.
The phone rang, which started Degrees, thinking Swift had returned.
Degrees-4: ...Glad no one saw that. *grabs phone* Doctor Degrees, how can I help you?
Jeff Andonuts: *on the phone* I'm flying en route to you now Doc, and I have some tissue samples we need to examine.
Degrees-4: *on the phone* Perfect. I absolutely love analyzing tissue samples. Actually...I really do. I don't know why I'm being an ass today. Probably the burns. Enough to make any man grumpy I suppose. How soon until you land?
Jeff Andonuts: I can't tell.
Degrees-4: You can tell me, I'm a Doctor.
Jeff Andonuts: No, I mean I'm just not sure.
Degrees-4: Well can't you take a guess?
Jeff Andonuts: Not for another hour.
Degrees-4: You can't take a guess for another hour?
Jeff Andonuts: No, I mean it won't be for another hour before I land.
Degrees-4: Oh...alright. Is this concerning what I think it is?
Jeff Andonuts: You got it.
Degrees-4: Great. I've been uneasy about this whole thing since I saw the security footage from the garage. It just doesn't make sense.
Jeff Andonuts: Well, hopefully this sheds some light on the subject. Be there in about an hour.
Degrees-4: You're not...in the Sky Runner are you?
Jeff Andonuts: Yes? Why?
Degrees-4: Uh..."park" it down the street would you? No more explosions for me for the time being.
Jeff Andonuts: Hey! You don't think I can land this?
Degrees-4: I sure don't.
Jeff Andonuts: Yeah...yeah...you're probably right.

Hotlanta: *sigh* This is a waste of time. It's all a waste of time. Generator, you're not in my league, and you never have been. You haven't been through what I've been through. I'm oh so tired of being clumped together with you, like we're generational rivals or something. We're not. We never were. Working with you made me sick. Working against you makes me sick. You just plain make me sick. I have bigger fish to fry, but if you want a Dead End, you're going to get a Dead End. Trevor Mach, watch closely, because you're next.
Nerma: Welcome to Mid-South, for EBW: Xcite! The show that's unsure as to why other sporting events were cancelled last week, and just continues to do its own thing. Every Xcite brings us closer to Victory Explosion X4! Tonight might help shape that card. We'll see Tack Angel finally take on Cadmus as well!
Tommy Dukes: Yeah, but which Ta-
Makoto Angel: Oh come on! Don't do that Tommy! You know that my Tack is the real Tack!
Nerma: Do we? See, years ago Tack was just a normal dude, who found himself a wife and kids. Then he starts calling himself the Star Prince and marrying left and right. He builds a Kingdom full of pirates, penguins, and who knows what else.
Makoto Angel: I was the one who told him about his destiny. He had a hard time accepting it, but embraced his purpose, because that's what a good person would do. He's never deserved the mocking, and he certainly doesn't deserve this!
Nerma: Alright! I'm sorry! I forgot that you're scary as hell when you're mad, and even though you're back to normal size, you're still VERY TALL!
Tommy Dukes: We started the show off with Hotlanta, the Television Champion, and while we gave Generator the chance to respond, he didn't want to comment. The man just wants to fight. That's awesome. We are starting in the ring however with our ACE! THE EBW Triple Crown World Champion! Bashin Dan! Here he comes now, complete with his new theme music!
Bashin Dan: First off, it's great to be here, speaking with all of you, who are giving me such a warm welcome. I appreciate it. Been feeling a little off lately, because the most important aspects of my life were out of balance. I was putting myself into harm's way for the thrill of the battle, and in the process, I hurt someone I care about. I'm sorry Hope. I'm very sorry. I spent last week recovering, and doing whatever the Doctors told me to do. They wanted to evaluate what I could do before Victory Explosion. I'm pleased to say that I've been cleared, and I'm ready for war! I would have been ready sooner if I didn't agree to those title defenses, but that's just what I've always done. I've always gone full speed ahead from one battle to the next. That's just my style. They call me the Dangerous Player, but that might be because I'm a danger to myself too. I have the battle of my life ahead of me. Tack Angel and Trevor Mach, are two of the all time greatest. I've gone toe to to with them before, but never like this. Likewise, they've been each other's greatest rivals, but they haven't had to deal with me getting into the mix. This has all the makings of the biggest fight in EBW history, and I will give it every ounce of my being. I will NOT let you down. Thank you!
Tommy Dukes: That's our ACE for you! The Dangerous Player! Heh...even when he's supposed to come out and spit fire, he's still a nice guy. Typical Dan.

1. Women's Tag: Christina Angel[o]/Nani Angel beat Lady M's/Heather Mach[x] via Angel Driver x Yurikomome -> Submission
-The opening match was a heated one, with Christina and M's both arguing for their shot at Erica with their fists. M's tried to warn Christina one last time, but proved she wasn't kidding by smashing her face in with elbows. Christina countered with a Side Suplex, and various ground hold attempts that she had learned from Hope. M's got back to her feet and clapped for Christina, but Christina pretended to laugh, only to rush forward with a headbutt, bloodying up M's nose, and making her respect Christina for real. Nani and Heather did their parts, but knew they were not the centerpiece of this match up. Late in the match Heather was in with Christina and attempted to tag out, but Christina dragged her back to the center of the ring for an Angel Driver. She wisely avoided the WRIST CLUTCH attempt, and instead went to the mat for an impressive Yurikomome submission. Even M's was impressed as she stopped for a second before trying to break it up. Nani got in M's way and the nostalgia was kicked up as the two grappled. Heather fought for as long as she could before tapping out. Christina with a deadly new submission finisher.
Makoto Angel: YEAH! That's what you like to see Christina won it! She did it!
Nerma: True, but she didn't beat M's, and M's is calling her on that right now. The two are barking back and forth.
Makoto Angel: Are they turning into dogs?
Nerma: Not literally Makoto.
Makoto Angel: Oh right.
Nerma: They're about to get back into it, but what's this? On the screen? It's Duvalie.
Duvalie: Bravo. What a magnificent performance. My lady Erica Eisen was truly entertained. She regrets to inform you both though, that she has fulfilled her contractually obligated title defenses, and does not to defend the title at Victory Explosion X4. Noah Jennings desperately wishes she would, and has promised big money, BUT, that decision is going to be up to the two of you. She will happily defend her title, and beat either of you, but it has to be just one, and the way to decide it will happen next week. Christina Angel vs. Lady M's in a 30 Minute Iron Woman match. Winner gets the shot, and the people get to see their Queen, Erica Eisen. My lady, whom is beyond "Elevated Perfection". The Golden Goddess.
Makoto Angel: Oh wow. I mean of course they're both going to accept, but something seems wrong about this.
Nerma: Of course it does. They're going to beat the hell out of each other! The winner will be going into Victory Explosion limping! I guarantee it! Erica with all the stroke. What a power play.
2. Tag: Dorado Mask/Hex No Limit[o] beat Magnum PT[x]/Dick Wagner via Brainbuster -> Pin
-Quick little match with the Lucha Bastards overwhelming Magnum PT. Lt. Lacy Wagner actually came out, and mocked her Dad with a fake drunk rant, pretending to coach him on. The confused Dick left the ring to figure it all out, leaving Magnum to take the Brainbuster from Hex and the pin.
Nerma: I love it. Lacy giving her Dad a taste of his own medicine.
Tommy Dukes: Yeah, but I think he was trying to be sincere. Annoying as hell, but sincere none the less. I can't imagine he's sober enough to grasp what's happening right now.
Makoto Angel: I'm just glad to see them doing more things together.
Nerma: ...*sigh*
3. Tag: Kinniku Mike/Amigo vs. Subculture/Firebrand X ended in a No Contest!
-Another potential classic was ruined by the antics of the World Tag Team Champions, but it turned out that the men in the match anticipated that and quickly joined forces to attack the Hooligans. Even Sal Paradise got up from the commentary desk to help drive them off. As they made their way up the ramp, the Lucha Bastards came out to help.
Amigo: You see that OD? You see that XL? We're not taking your crap anymore! You can both kiss my ass. You and that guy you have parading around to distract us! We all spoke with Jennings, and we got the match we wanted. The ultimate equalizer. Four Tag Teams, one Cage, two World Tag Team Championships, and at one event. Victory Explosion X4!
Jamie OD: Oi! You fekken gobshite! The big lad and I will make you regret that one! Haha! You're all going to regret it!
Tommy Dukes: Now that's a match to see. *looks at the camera* Worth the price of admission alone I would think.
Nerma: Don't do that. Be more subtle and less creepy.
Tommy Dukes: But I really believe it. That match is going to be awesome!
Nerma: ....Then we have a problem creepy face.
Tommy Dukes: Awww...
4. Singles: Tack Angel beat Cadmus via DQ
-A match long awaited....was put on hold again, as when the bell rang, the other Tack Angel ran into the ring and attacked Star Prince Tack Angel.
Tommy Dukes: Whoa! It's the other Tack!
Makoto Angel: The REAL Tack would never attack someone like that!
Nerma: Maybe he would. Let's listen to what he has to say.
"Tack Angel": You don't get to go about life like it's normal anymore imposter. Nothing is normal. NONE OF THIS IS NORMAL! You took years off my life that I'll never get back, and you made me look like a joke! I came back expecting to have to face you in Havok, and I find that in my absence, you made it EBW again, and you had to make a mockery of that too. I loved this brand and sport so much. I was never happier than when I won the World Championship 10 years ago at Victory Explosion 4. The only things that made me happier were marrying my ONE AND ONLY WIFE AND SEEING OUR CHILDREN BORN! You're a monster, and I'm going to stop you.
5. Women's Singles: Foxx Mask #4 beat 21st Century Foxx via Chokeslam -> Pin
-Another great showing for the woman in the mask, as she took on the lady that brought her to the dance in the first place. A Foxx Factor kick out, and Mask #4 hulked up, lifting Foxx for the Chokeslam and the pin. She then ripped off her mask to reveal!
Nerma: It's The Beast! Wow! The biggest star, literally, to evade the grasp of EBW, EWA, and SEW, is finally here, and she's been here for some time, and she's awesome! Love it!
Makoto Angel: I guess that means she done with 21st Century Foxx. She's her own woman now, and it's safe to say that the Foxx Force Five experiment was a disaster for her, but not The Beast!
Nerma: Hey, whatever happened to Foxx Mask #5?
Makoto Angel: *shrug*
Nerma: *shrug*
Tommy Dukes: *shug*
Nerma: Oh well. *shurg*
6. EBW Television Championship: Hotlanta(c) beat Generator via Powerbomb X3 -> Pin -> Title Defense!
-Main event time, as Hotlanta defended the Television Championship against Generator. Another great effort from both men, with Generator using the match to prove his worth to the Wolves. An Electric Chair might have sealed the deal, but the follow up GR8R was blocked with knees. Hotlanta showed his incredible upper body strength, with not one, not two, but three Powerbombs and the pin. A title defense for Hotlanta, who immediately backed out of the ring, as Trevor Mach bolted in to pull out his friend. The two stared each other down.
Tommy Dukes: This feud is going to explode! I can't wait to see what happens next! We'll see you next week....I mean Neon Nights! How did I forget that? I WORK that show!

Swift: W00t! Yeah, I'm talking to you w00t! Guess who is cleared to compete? You know, you disappeared on us, after being made to look like a massive fool and a massive tool. You come back and attack me?! You try and pick a fight? You want it? You got it. The Triple Crown will be there waiting for me when I'm done. I'm throwing down a challenge you egotistical little bitch. Victory Explosion X4. You show up! You get beat! You don't don't show up! You're made to look like the cowardly piece of shit I know you are! It's funny, people have been whispering. They assumed you were dead. You step into the ring with me, you might as well be.
Tommy Dukes: Welcome back to the Studio, for another one of our Neon Nights! Yeah!
Apple Kid: ...I thought w00t was dead too to be honest.
Tommy Dukes: Huh?
Apple Kid: Nothing, I just hadn't seen him since...
Tommy Dukes: Well he left EBW after he was beaten by Hotlanta, but now he's back, swerving between us and the EWA. You heard it here first on this ACTUALLY IMPORTANT show. Swift is challenging w00t at Victory Explosion X4. I really hope he accepts. We have a big night of fights for you with-
Arliss Michaels: My boys, the Heat Parade in action! Fighter Daron is going to open the show! Get excited and buy this new Fighter Daron is NOT a Curtain Jerker t-shirt.
Apple Kid: Do you know what curtain jerker is?
Arliss Michaels: No idea.
Apple Kid: Well when you start the show you-
The screen cut away to...
Trevor Mach: AWWWOOOOooo....Trevor Mach in the HOU-Studio....it's a Studio. My bad. So Swift has his dance card filled for VE, and I have my own challenge to lay down. Yes, I have a "rather imporant" spot already taken in the main event, but I'm going to work double duty. Hotlanta. No way you can say no to this. You and me will go one on one at Victory Explosion X4. If you win, you don't get my spot. That's already set in stone, and I'm not giving it up. What you get....is that win over me you've been dying for, and I think for you, that's worth more right now. Don't even put your title on the line. I don't want it. I've said in the past all the titles can mean a lot when you put your heart into it, but MY heart, is set on the Triple Crown World Championship. I just want that one on one match. In the meantime, while I wait for an answer, I think Fighter Daron needs an opponent right? Ready or not, the War Wolf is baring his fangs. Wait...I have something stuck in between my teeth. There we go! Here I come!
EBW: Neon Nights
Studio B, Saturn City
ENN
1. Singles: Trevor Mach beat Fighter Daron via Machigoye x Kimura -> Submission
-A quick showcase for the War Wolf, as he battered Fighter Daron, who missed with a right cross, and got pulled into Cravate Knee Strikes, before the Machigoye and a Kimura, leading to the submission and overkill victory.
Arliss Michaels: DARON NO!
Apple Kid: Heh. Got a t-shirt for that?
2. Tag: Kinniku Mike[o]/Amigo beat John Saturn[x]/Jake Saturn via Muscle Buster -> Pin
-A fast squash as the Paradise Collection beat the holy hell out of a team from Saturn City, who wore Saturn University jackets, and their only gimmick was that they were from a place and went to a school. Cause that's exciting right? Mike slammed John Saturn into a daze and picked him up for the Muscle Buster and the pin.
Tommy Dukes: That outcome was never in doubt. Sorry. Mike and Amigo were just way too fired up.
Sal Paradise: You're absolutely right. The Hooligans have pushed us too far, and we are ready to hold World Championship gold once again. Taking it from them is all the extra incentive we need.
Apple Kid: What about the other two teams in the cage?
Sal Paradise: Well, when they lose, we'll be happy to give them shots before the Hooligans if that helps ease the sting of defeat.
Apple Kid: I see. Well, we now have a little sit down with The Beast, who recently hit EBW as Foxx Mask #4, but we hear she's got something on her mind, including a major change.
-
Nerma: Nerma here, actually doing something for Neon Nights. I'm surprised too, but I wanted to be here for this one actually. The Beast, a major face on the independent wrestling scene for years, has finally accepted a contract with EBW. We're happy to have you.
The Beast: It was the right time.
Nerma: You have an amazing look. Dark, ripped muscles, and those waist length dreads. You have the power, and you have the height. As you've shown as Foxx Mask #4, you're truly are a Beast.
The Beast: I appreciate that you noticed. It wasn't easy playing a henchmen, but I wanted to prove myself anonymously first. Show that hype or no hype, I'm the real deal. I have no loyalty towards Foxx or the others. It was just business. Now, I'm in business for myself. I'm in the business of success. That's why I'm here, in the division that Lady M's built. Though to be honest, I had a moment of doubt.
Nerma: Oh yeah? Why is that?
The Beast: Well, when I removed my mask, I maybe expected something from her. Maybe she knew of me, and maybe she'd want to test herself against me. I was a little surprised to find out she didn't know who I was.
Nerma: Really?
The Beast: That's what I heard. So. My reputation does not entirely precede me, and for that reason, I'm dropping my identity as The Beast.
Nerma: What? Really?
?: Really.
Nerma: Wow, it already went away.
?: From now on, you can call me BeShemoth. A new name, and a new legacy to build on.
Nerma: BeShemoth huh?
BeShemoth: That's right. That's a name everyone is going to remember. I guarantee it.
Nerma: Wow, it works so fast.
-
Tommy Dukes: Well there you have it. BeShemoth is on the scene, and she's up next!
3. Women's Singles: Shehemoth beat Queen Bolshoi via Powerbomb -> Pin
-Another quick one, with BeShemoth just proving to be too strong for Queen Bolshoi. A crushing shoulder tackle left Bolshoi on the ground. BeShemoth dead lifted her from the mat and picked up for a Powerbomb and the pin.
Tommy Dukes: Wow! She's so strong!
Apple Kid: ...*blush*
Tommy Dukes: Apple? What's....are you smitten with the BeShemoth?
Apple Kid: Black muscle girls are my thing! DON'T YOU JUDGE ME DUKES!
4. EBW Neon Championship: Benjamin(c) beat Chad Salad via Spear -> Pin -> Title Defense!
-Main event time, as Benjamin took on Chad Salad. Members of the Heat Paradise tried to get involved, but Vape appeared, and as we all know from this simple math equation Vape > Heat Parade. Chad ate a spear from the Neon Champion, as Benjamin made his first title defense!
Tommy Dukes: And there you have it! Vape helped Benji, but what's this? He's motioning at the belt! Does Vape want to challenge his Dan Club stablemate?!

EBW World
Nerma: Nerma here for EBW World, and it is FINAL! The card for Victory Explosion X4 that is. This is a big one folks. Can you feel it? All eyes EVERYWHERE will be watching this one....because there won't be anything else on...for reasons....too depressing to get into. But here in Eagleland, we're safe and sound, and ready for VICTORY EXPLOSION! LET'S CHECK OUT THAT CARD! CHECK A PEEK!
EBW: Victory Explosion X4
Saturn Dome, Saturn City
ENN+
1. Victory Royale: Jammer vs. Chad Salad vs. Magnum PT vs. Fighter Daron vs. Vape vs. Orange vs. Benjamin vs. Misogynist Paul vs. Robert Sandwich vs. Fray Tiburon vs. Tomo vs. El Mago vs. Dangerous D vs. Dick Wagner vs. Generator vs. Rude vs. Cadmus
2. Women's Victory Royale: BeShemoth vs. Tracy Angel vs. Duvalie vs. Nani Angel vs. 21st Century Foxx vs. Faris Angel vs. Kei Akiyama vs. Kayla Sparkz vs. Heather Mach vs. Kimber Blaze vs. Lt. Lacy Wagner
3. EBW Women's Television Championship: Kaie(c) vs. Hope Mach
4. Non-Title Singles: Hotlanta vs. Trevor Mach
5. EBW World Tag Team Championship Cage: Jamie OD(c)/Jamie XL(c) vs. Kinniku Mike/Amigo vs. Subculture/Firebrand X vs. Dorado Mask/Hex No Limit
6. Singles: Swift vs. w00t
7. EBW Women's World Championship: Erica(c) vs. Christina Angel or Lady M's
8. EBW Triple Crown World Championship: Bashin Dan(c) vs. Tack Angel vs. Trevor Mach
Nerma: Awesome right?! From top to bottom. We kick off with TWO Victory Royales for starters. We have Hope Mach and Kaie settling the score WE HOPE with a Television Championship match. The War Wolf and the Dead End will collide in a grudge match. No title on the line, and no spot in the main event. This match isn't about that. To them, it's about long needed closure apparently. Hotlanta has of course accepted the challenge. The Hooligans will be locked in a cage with Paradise Collection, Crimson Bombers, and the Lucha Bastards, with the World Tag Team Championships on the line. Swift will return from injury to take on w00t in another big grudge match full of history. Erica will be taking on either Christina Angel or Lady M's, if they can even stand after their upcoming 30 Minute Iron Woman match. Then....we have the MAIN EVENT! The Dangerous Player will put the Triple Crown World Championship on the line against the War Wolf Trevor Mach and the Star Prince Tack Angel. So much history here. So many main events gone by, and the stalwart pillars of EBW remain, to take on the newest pillar, Bashin Dan. That's right, I'm calling it. He's got pillar status. I like Trevor Mach a lot for what he's done for EBW, and I....can't really comment on Tack Angel, but Bashin Dan, he's the ACE this company needs. I'd say GO ACE....but that would get me in trouble.
?
The man in the black coat and hat, that was seen talking to Hotlanta, appeared in a darkened abandoned factory, where many figures in cloaks stood waiting.
?: The time is drawing near. We'll take our revenge, and fix this nightmare we find ourselves in. I give you a second chance. Believe in me, and when it's over, you will no longer be forgotten! For now we wait. Like Hotlanta said, we have all the time in the world....and then some.
Crystal Heaven
Amy Angel was startled awake from a nap, as Tack Angel quickly helped her to her feet and out the door.
Amy Angel: Tack? Where are we going? What's going on? Are we in trouble? Is Cadmus attacking again?
Tack Angel: No honey, we just need to get out of here for a while. Just you, me, Helios, Christina, and Rebecca.
Amy Angel: What? Why? I don't understand.
Tack Angel: It's...uh...a surprise! Yeah, I have a surprise for you all. Come on!
Amy Angel: *sigh* I don't know what to do with you Tack. By the way, when did you shave your beard and frost the tips again?
