Keeton & Walker Can Only Tag - Not Fight nor Attack Each Other
The Rulers of Our Kind vs. JC Keeton & Terra Walker
We head to the arena where not too long after the camera eyes the titantron, a soft violin starts to play on the PA. About five seconds in, the beat starts to kick in as "Open Door (The Apollo Remix)" by Mike Shinoda hits.
Once the verse starts, Roddy Zalez and Doc Knockem enter the arena. Roddy is dressed to compete while Doc is dressed in his usual suit and cowboy hat combo. The former has a smirk on their face while the latter just stands ominously. They look out to the booing crowd before beginning their trek towards the ring.
Katta Pult: Ladies and gentlemen in attendance and watching at home…your about to witness an alliance that has taken this show by storm.Jimmy Garcia: They have certain been an effective unit.Katta Pult: Effective is an understatement. They debuted together by beating and pinning the then Cruiserweight Champion, Terra Walker. They then capitalized and are now the number one contenders for the Cruiserweight Tag Team Titles.Jimmy Garcia: Their alliance has paid off in dividends, but we’ll see both tonight and at Turmoil if it’ll be the glue that gives them the power they seek.The two men ignore the fans at ringside, all of whom are either giving them thumbs down or other rude gestures. Doc stares down the ultra rude ones, but Roddy just ignores them. He takes the steps into the ring, followed soon by Doc. Once both men are in the center of the mat, Doc stands behind Roddy with his hands in folded in front of him at his waist. Roddy spreads his arms wide, his smirk quite evident.
The lights go out, but the music continues to play. They quickly turn back on where Kitsumi is seen on her knees in front of Roddy, her smile wide as he hands lie in front of her on the mat.
The music fades away as Doc turns towards Ethan Miller with a nod.
Ethan Miller: Introducing to the ring, accompanied by Doc Knockem. At a combined weight of 238 lbs! The team of Roddy Zalez and Kitsumi, The RULERS...of Our KIND!Kitsumi reaches her feet, skipping around in circles, anxiously awaiting her opponent. Roddy stands in the middle of the ring, a smirk on his face as Doc exits to ringside.
"Honeysuckle" by The Dillinger Escape Plan ambushes the PA systems. The lights go frantic, with multiple colors flashing, and multiple spotlights searching around, causing the anticipation and anxiety throughout the crowd. One spotlight catches a masked Terra on the staircase near the crowd.
Ethan Miller: Making her way to the ring. She hails from Oxford, England, and weighs in at 60 kilos. She is "Psychonic" TERRAAA WALKERRR!Jimmy Garcia: What an unfortunate few weeks it has been for Terra Walker. First she gets pinned teaming with Paul Mall—her then opponent—by both Kitsumi and Roddy. Then she gets her original opponent replaced with a surprise one in JC Keeton and ends up losing her Cruiserweight Title. Now she has to team up with her NEW opponent in JC.
Katta Pult: She has been through the ringer, and quite frankly, it’s an unfair one. She’s looking to regain that title she never should’ve lost at Turmoil.She pushes the ruckus crowd away from her with aggression, until she makes it to the barricade. Once there, she stands atop it, rips her mask off, and lets out a valiant war cry, the crowd following suit. She walks on the announce table, not caring about the commentators, leaping off afterwards to slide into the ring. Terra rushes to the ropes and let's out another war cry, causing fireworks to shoot above her, crossing rapidly in an X shape. She stands on the bottom turnbuckle, ready to slaughter anyone in her path.
"Born Legendary" begins to play and when the beat kicks in pyro explodes from the rampway as JC Keeton steps through the curtain, the Cruiserweight Title around his waist. He makes his way to the ring bouncing in rhythm to the music.
Ethan Miller: And her tag team partner, hailing from Lexington, Kentucky, weighing in at 201 lbs., he…is the current…Cruiserweight Champion…J…C…Keeton.When he reaches the ring, he leaps up onto the apron and steps through the ropes, ignoring a scowling Terra by hitting the top turnbuckle and raising his belt up high.
Jimmy Garcia: The new Cruiserweight Champ is in ready and raring to go.Katta Pult: Things aren’t going to be easy given his tag team partner wants his head.Jimmy Garcia: Yeah, but neither JC or Terra can physically assault or brawl with each other. They can only tag in and out.Katta Pult: Just catching their bases. Making sure nothing bad happens before the match at Turmoil.He continues to sway and bounce from heel to heel as he awaits the match to start.
Terra and him get face-to-face, both of them arguing over who wants to start. Roddy and Kitsumi have a quick conference in their own corner before the latter exits the ring.
Terra and JC start to get a bit rowdy, something that is quickly shut down with a charging Roddy. JC pushes Terra out of the ring, sending her through the ropes, allowing Roddy to nail JC with a shotgun dropkick that sends him into his corner.
DING DING DING
Jimmy Garcia: Roddy Zalez wasting no time in taking it to JC.Katta Pult: They were trying to argue who would start, but JC solved that by also saving her from that dropkick.Zalez grabs JC’s leg, dragging him back towards the middle of the ring. He holds onto the ankle, throwing it to the mat. He turns around and goes for a moonsault, but JC pushes him on his back mid-move, sending Roddy flipping back to land on his feet.
JC reaches his feet, ducking past a charging Roddy. On the rebound, JC nails an extra sweet dropkick to Roddy’s face.
Jimmy Garcia: That dropkick hit flush!JC grabs Roddy’s head, dragging him towards his corner. He holds out his hand and Terra does a normal tag. JC holds Roddy’s arm up, allowing Terra to kick him in the abdomen. JC leaves as Terra nails a few forearms. Terra sends a knee into Roddy’s gut before taking him down between her thighs. She hooks both arms and falls back.
Katta Pult: Ooh, a nice butterfly suplex by Terra—Jimmy Garcia: Roddy flips out of it, landing on his feet.Roddy stumbles forward into a tag by Kitsumi. She hops into the ring as Terra hits her knees, allowing the teenager to nail a charging European uppercut. Terra hits the mat and Kitsumi hooks a leg.

With a smirk, JC accepts the tag, possibly a little rougher than intended.

She hooks Roddy up and lifts him up for a suplex at the same as JC picks up Kitsumi!
The two turn around and stare at their positions, each have a member of the opposing team in a stalling position.
Jimmy Garcia: My god what a moment!Katta Pult: This is a game of can-you-top-this!JC and Terra argue back and forth, both challenging the other to drop first. Unfortunately, this is the disillusion the Rulers needed. As Doc distracts the ref, Roddy knees Terra in the face, quickly turning the suplex into a headscissors which takes Terra into JC’s gut.

She turns around into a back elbow by Terra, taking her to the mat. Terra waits a few moments for Kitsumi to rise before catching a clothesline and hitting an exploder suplex.

As she approaches, Roddy drags her closer. Terra threatens him, which is enough to get him to back up. Terra lifts Kitsumi up, again getting her in between her legs. Doc hops on the apron, distracting the ref once again.
Jimmy Garcia: Doc Knockem back at it again!Seeing Doc in action, Roddy grabs the back of Terra’s hair, dragging out of the move. She turns around, taking a swing at Zalez, who ducks, hot shotting her on the top rope. Doc again gets off the apron, turning around just as Kitsumi school boys Terra, standing up out of it by hooking the legs under her arms. She then leans back, catapulting Terra directly into a pendulum kick by Roddy.
Katta Pult: Ooh what a shot! And it’s only gonna get worse!Terra falls back, hitting onto Kitsumi’s knees, but keeping the legs locked. Roddy then springs in over the top rope, nailing Terra with a corkscrew splash.

A headset finds itself into the ring, being launched at the action and directly at Terra. Doc hides himself on the other side of the ring, feigning innocence.
Katta Pult: Well that’s interesting! Doc just took Jimmy’s headset and used it to distract the ref.The ref grabs the headset and points towards Jimmy, acting as if maybe he did it.
Katta Pult: And of course, because the refs in this company are idiots, he actually thinks Jimmy did it.Doc notices the ref’s distraction as he hands the headset back to Jimmy, who is pleading his case. He gets onto the apron, which is enough for JC to rush into the ring, nailing him with a forearm to take him back to the floor. JC steps back as Terra notices. Things reset as Jimmy gets his headset back, JC hits the apron, Doc hits the floor, and Terra stands up, pointing at her partner.
Jimmy Garcia: What an absolute prick! Doc just stole my headset and used it in the match!Katta Pult: I would never advise it as that’s probably a fine, but damn if it wasn’t effective.Terra and JC continue to argue, things really blowing ahead here. Terra has had enough. Using her open palm, as she makes sure that it is, she slaps JC right into the cheek!
The ref admonishes her actions, but acknowledges that it was an open hand, and thus, accepts it as a legal tag!
