Tables, Ladders & Chairs
Insurgentsia vs. Affluenza vs. Swallowing vs. Vanguard(c)
The camera pans around and we see tables with the legs folded up against the railing, we see ladders laying down on the mats on each side of the ring and ladders at the bottom of the very long ramp. We see a pile of chairs on each side of the ring and some more up against the railing.
Billy: As you can see!..The Tag Team Championships hang above the ring in the bracket..
Billy: .. It's time for the Tag Team Championship TLC match!Chris Avery: Four of the top tag teams have been enriched in this blood-boiling rivalry for the last few months!Billy: The Swallowing believe they're the best tag team in the division, of course the Champions Vanguard have been on a record-setting reign, Affluenza has been causing chaos and destruction everywhere they go and then there is Johnny Bacchus and Ash Blake.. the duo who don't belong together, yet find themselves side by side!The lights in the arena cut out as the opening notes of “The Death of Peace of Mind” begin to play over the P.A. On the Actiontron, a series of images and letters flash:
the letter
I, a match lighting a prayer candle,
the letter
N, a set of onyx rosary beads,
the letter
S, an illustration from John Milton’s “Paradise Lost” of Lucifer cast from Heaven,
the letter
U, a black balaclava being pulled over a face,
the letter
R, a sigil drawn on a concrete floor,
the letter
G, an illustration of Icarus plummeting to Earth,
the letter
E, bullets falling from the cylinder of a revolver,
the letter
N, a coat being pulled over shoulders,
the letter
T, a set of hands pulling on a single black leather glove,
the letter
S, a woman’s eyes,
the letter
I, the gloved hand wrapping around the handle of a baseball bat
the letter
A, two silhouetted figures
As Noah Sebastian’s vocals begin, two spotlights hit opposite ends of the stage.
“I made another mistake,
Thought I could change, thought I could make it out”
Beneath one walks Ash Blake, dressed in an all-black suit and turtleneck. From the other side of the stage and under the second spotlight walks Johnny Bacchus, dressed in matching attire with a balaclava over his head and the black baseball bat draped over his shoulder. The lights go black once more, and with each hit of the echoing 808, the spotlights flash to reveal the pair approaching one another.
“Promise break, need to hear you say…”
Joined together under an icy blue spotlight, the pair look down the ramp towards the ring. Johnny reaches up to pull the balaclava off his head, and the two make eye contact before looking back.
“You’re gonna keep them now.”
The lights explode in a strobe burst before coming fully on as the song kicks into a more driving beat. The two stalk down the ramp, both faces masks of quiet intensity and determination.
Adilene Floyd: And making their way to the ring, weighing in at a combined 350 lbs…. the team of Johnny Bacchus and Ash Blake. They are INSURGENTSIA!“I miss the way you say my name,
The way you bend, the way you break…”
Chris Avery: I think speculation about the future of these two is over, Billy, we’ve witnessed the birth of a new team here.Billy: These two were the black sheep of this match. Don’t look like that no more.“The make-up running down your face,
The way you touch, the way you taste.”
At the base of the ramp, they split off and circle the ring in opposite directions as the chorus of their theme explodes over the speakers.
“When the curtains call the time
Will we both go home alive?”
Chris Avery: You just watch these two move together now, and they’re like two predators stalking prey.Billy: The Champ’s may have the Two Wolves, but these two’re just like two wolves, Chris.After removing their coats, they climb the apron, slinking into the ring and regarding their opponents. Ash passes the Swallowing, her eyes going from Addy and locking with Lissie – Johnny passes Affluenza and regards Regan and Jill wordlessly.
“It wasn’t hard to realize…”
They make their way to their designated corner, and Johnny briefly exchanges stares with Lissie and Addy, who stare back emotionally.
Chris Avery: So much personal history with the other people in this match. So much acrimony and so much conflict.“...Love’s the death of peace of mind.”
At the corner, Johnny pulls himself up to stand on the middle rope as Ash removes the turtleneck to reveal her ring attire beneath. Looking out over the crowd, Bacchus takes in the reaction.
Billy: And so much has changed in these two over the last month. ‘Specially this one.He pulls off his own turtleneck and discards it to the outside, turning to sit on the top turnbuckle as he glowers at their adversaries. A quiet, confident smile parses both their lips as the lights slowly come on.
The crowd dies down as the sound dies down.
A loud, deafening siren screeches throughout the arena. A brief pause allows for the following to be broadcast:
This is not a test
This is your Emergency Broadcast System
Announcing the commencement of the Action Wrestling Tag Team Purge
Sanctioned by the Affluenza
The siren blares once more, but only for a moment this time, before cutting into “Black Sheep” by Metric. The fans boo loudly as a jagged line rips down the middle of the Action-Tron, leaving the left side pink and the right side blue. A silhouette of Regan Voorhees appears on the left, with a silhouette of Jill Park on the right. Word balloons appear over both their heads, followed by voiceovers.
“It’s time.”
“It has begun.”
The silhouettes vanish, the divided screen turning from black to white, a single word spread all the way across in red letters.
AFFLUENZA
“Black Sheep” kicks in and golden pyro erupts from the stage, blanketing the entry way in a cloud of white smoke. Jill Park takes the stage, her white jacket is stained blood red, over her ring gear. Regan Voorhees follows a second later, her own blood-stained jacket over her own gear. She pulls back the hood to shake her hair free, as the two pause of the top of the ramp for the sake of a cinematic entrance. Each member dawns a new mask, Regan with a neon pig mask, and Jill with a smiling mask.
Both member of Affluenza continue stoically down towards the ring, as a creepy uneasiness takes over the arena. Their usual theatrics are gone as they walk up the steps, stopping on the apron and looking out at the crowd for a moment, before stepping through the ropes. They both stand in the center of the ring for a minute before slowly removing their masks to reveal a couple of evil, trance-like stares.
Billy: Take nothing away from Regan Voorhees and Jill Park, these two monsterous women in their skinny frames and small bodies are far from small in that ring! They're just as dangerous as anyone and both of them can jump up, snap your neck in a flash!Chris Avery: If you were to ask me which two could be the next World Champions, I'd hate to bet against them!The sound fades as the crowd begins to stir and "Fuck the Pain Away" by Peaches nails the soundsystem inside the arena and the crowd erupts! The song begins to echo throughout the arena, as the arena lights blackout leaving the arena in total darkness, the fans in the front rows are sprayed with a glow in the dark spray that gives the impression that they've received a facial.
As the lyrics of the song kick into gear, the arena lights begin to strobe before proving a single light focus on the stage, while the rest of the arena remains bathed in darkness.
Lissie Hope is first to walk out onto the landing, and Adelaide Ainsworth skips out behind her. The two girls tap their waists, signifying they want the belts before they start making their way to the ring. Addy skipping to the ring like a slutty school girl, while Lissie Hope trails behind. The spotlight splits in two as it follows the girls to the ring. Lissie trails behind Addy and enters the ring, while Ainsworth skips around the ring.
Adilene Floyd: Ladies and gentlemen… Addy A and Lissie Hope… THE SWALLOWING!The lights focus on the ring as Addy does the splits and slides herself into under the bottom rope before house lights raise.
Billy: The Swallowing have come back together and now they find themselves in one of the biggest main events here tonight, and look at that! Regan and Addy are staring each other down!Chris Avery: Don't forget last fall when those two had one of the most intense, bloody rivalries and feuds we've ever seen here in Action Wrestling!Adilene Floyd: Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Unleash The Archers!
As the band began to play "Cleanse the Bloodlines," the arena darkened, the strobe lights distracting the crowd from the dense fog rolling in. Slowly, flames began to climb along the edge of the stage and down the ramp. Three spotlights flashed on, one illuminating the band, and two illuminating two places on the stage.
"Here you are, you've finally come
You're mine, at last! I've waited so long
Listen well, this is why you are here
I need you to find my sons
Journey wide they're spread across the land
They will hide they know what I plan
My sons were born for one purpose only
Their blood my elixir of life"
The band's performance was loud enough to drown out the sound of the two platforms rising up to the stage floor. Two figures rose from the ground, heads bowed, with the man on the right holding one of the tag team titles while the other wore his around his waist.
Downfall and Dionysus looked out into the crowd, roaring in cheers at the arrival of the tag team champions!
"Return them alive, I'll kill them myself
I'll open their throats and drink from their skulls
The ritual is very precise
Bring them to me before the planets align"
Billy: There they are! The Two Wolves! The Tag Team Champions! The Vanguard is here!Chris Avery: These two aren't here for a match. They're here for a war!"The altars wait in silence, an effigy
Soon their purpose divined
Blood will run as rivers upon them
The time has come to
Cleanse the bloodlines, free me from the clutch of
Death incarnate, my reign must never end"
Downfall released the clasps on his belt, while Dionysus removed his belt from his shoulder. At the chorus, both men held their respective belts up, the flames rising to meet them. Dionysus also raised his other hand, which held a battle axe, as he let out his own bellow with the crowd. The two champions looked to each other, nodding in acknowledgement, and started making their way down the ramp.
Adilene Floyd: And introducing the champions; at a combined weight of 492 pounds, they are the longest reigning Action Wrestling Tag Team Champions! DOWNFALL! DIONYSUS! THEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE VAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANGUAAAAAAAAAAAAARD!!!!As they made their way ringside, the flames on the stage and ramp subsided. Dionysus set the axe near the ring steps as he climbed up, holding the middle and top rope open for Downfall to climb in. Because of all the gear. Because of course it'd be difficult to get into the ring decked out the way Downfall was. Its not because Dionysus is the second fiddle. Shut up.
"Unearth my descendants, find them and bring them to me
Feed my insatiable lust for blood
I can give what you've longed for your whole life
Freedom from this earthly tie
Know this in your heart of hearts
Betray me and spend eternity as mine"
The two men stared down each of their opponents, until the bridge finished. Both Downfall and Dionysus stood on either side of each other, facing the hard camera side of the ring. Then, as the chorus struck again, the champions held their belts up once more, to a thunderous chorus from the crowd.
"Cleanse the bloodlines, free me from the clutch of
Death incarnate, my reign must never end"
As the band began their outro, the two champions pointed toward the band near the stage. The crowd cheered in appreciation for the band.
Billy: AND HERE THEY ARE! THE RECORD SETTING TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS! Chris Avery: VANGUARD ARE IN THE RING! SWALLOWING! INSURGENTSIA AND THE AFFLUENZA!DING DING DING
