Tens of thousands of fans have converged on Athens, Greece inside Panathenaic Stadium to watch Ravenstock! An incredibly elaborate tunnel stage system has been created with a professional wrestling ring in the middle of the stadium. It is a glorious sight, pink lights swirl into the sky, the fans are going crazy! But then moments pass. Moments become minutes. It feels like a month has gone by and nothing has been happening, the crowd is confused, bored, getting a little restless even. Mounted on the wall above the entrance tunnel is a large RAVENSTOCK sign, it lights up and blinks and is neon.. and it begins sparking! Fans sitting above the sign reel back as the RAVEN portion of the sign dislodges and comes crashing down! In its place.. the word ACTION?! PYRO BURSTS FROM ALL AROUND THE STADIUM, THE CROWD LOSES THEIR FUCKING MINDS. Out walks Billy! And Nate Nytro! They wave to the crowd as they make their way to the ring, around to the announce desk and grab mics! Nate Nytro: WELCOME EVERYONE.. TO ACTIONSTOCK!Billy: We weren't going to leave you all hanging! Let's get to the ACTION!

A Shocking Start!
The lights in the stadium slowly fade to black, then light back up a bright blood red. Omnious music plays, the crowd going wild for whatever the hell this is. A trio of drum hits. The place becomes unglued. Nate Nytro: We're kicking this motherfucker off with a BANG BILLY!Billy: SHIT - FUCKING - FIRE.Another trio of drum blasts. A third. A fourth. Five. Six. Seven. Eight. A lightning bolt sounds, "RAINING BLOOD" BY SLAYER KICKS IN. Athens probably hits on the Richter scale as the red lights swirl throughout the stadium and COREY BLACK walks out from the tunnel! Nate Nytro: The absolute BEST professional wrestler in this company, in that company, in any company, ON THIS GOD-DAMNED PLANET - COREY BLACK IS HERE IN GREECE.Corey walks down the ramp nodding his head to the beat, his black, white and golden tights complimented by the black and gold knee pads, gold boots, black kick pads with white designs and his hooded dark denim vest plastered with band logos. He reaches ringside and slides into the ring, throwing a devil horned hand into the sky and soaking in all the chaos from the crowd. Billy: I'd be lying if I told you I didn't expect this, I mean, who called you, Nate?Nate Nytro: You know damn well who, he's got a mic in the ring.Corey does have a mic, he pauses as the music slowly fades out and the lights turn back to white. He looks out, into the crowd who is all around him. Fans on top of the tunnel, all around, up the stadium, it's a sight to behold. He points out to them, they lose it. He smiles. Corey Black: Expecting someone else?A roar from those in attendance. Corey Black: I don't know what to say, other than it's an honor and a delight to stand on the neck of someone regarded as the best one more time and show him that he's nothing more than a footnote in my history books. I'm going to savor every moment I can. Because once this is done, I'm shifting every bit of my focus to May the thirteenth in Los Angeles, where I plan on planting my two feet in this very ring and one by one, head over heels tossing every wrestler out of this sacred squared circle and taking my rightful place in the main event of Evolution!A bombardment of cheers from the crowd. Corey Black: But for now, let's have a little fun, shall we? There's a bunch of professional wrestlers back there, some in Action Wrestling, some not in Action Wrestling, I say we make the most of this and we send someone out here to kick this fucking Actonstock thing off! Just, do me a favor, if anyone happens to see ol' weedy goo boy back there, send his ass back to catering, nobody wants to watch me stomp this shit out of him and he miraculously pull out the W again.Nate Nytro: What's the meme, Billy? This guy is spittin'?Billy: Sounds like a little residual frustration from Deathproof here, but I also can't say that I blame him. Who is really going to come challenge this man?A lengthy moment or two pass before โMidnight Riderโ by the Allman Brothers Band blares over the PA system. The crowd seems confused. A slight murmur can be heard as if people are talking to one another. Billy: This song is good and all but it seems like nobody really knows - Nate Nytro: OH BILLY I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT THIS MEANS! YOU GOTTA BE FRICKIN' KIDDING ME!Indeed, Nate does know as the six foot, nine inch ... four hundred and thirty pound MOUNTAIN OF A MAN THOMAS URIEL BATES steps out to the stage! The crowd is shocked, some cheer, most boo, but an aura of stun emanates from everyone. Billy: HOLY COW NATE THIS IS GIGANTIC - HE IS GIGANTIC!Nate Nytro: Corey Black has been calling this man out for YEARS. Ever since WCF closed, Corey has tried to find Bates, coax him back into the ring to fight Corey for years and years of what Corey claims is 'bullshit' that Bates put him and the rest of the boys through!Bates glares down at the ring, staring intensely at Corey Black as he walks to the ring. He arrives at the ring and walks up the steps. He moves to the center of the apron, and keeping his eyes centered on Corey, he steps over the top rope and enters the ring. Bates steps towards Corey and stretches out his arms, and roars. Nate Nytro: This is insanity. Only in Athens, on faux XIII thanks to James fucking Raven bailing on everyone. Good riddance and good grief.Corey doesn't back down from the towering human, instead he nods and removes his vest, dropping it to the floor. Bates backs into his corner, Corey his, a ref comes into the ring and checks on both men then motions for the bell! Nate Nytro: Actionstock is on!DING DING DINGTHOMAS BATES DARTS OUT OF THE CORNER AND THROWS HIS FOOT AT THE FACE OF COREY BLACK! COREY DUCKS! Billy: Gosh almost sent him to the moon!Corey shoots off to the ropes and springs off the middle, imploding flip, grabs Bates in a cutter but the big man doesn't go down! Instead he locks his bear arms around Corey and throws his ass backward and over his head! Corey fully rotates and lands on his knee, though! Nate Nytro: Superhero pose!Bates certainly hates that because of what they have done to Captain America, hail Hydra, Falcon is awesome, but he charges in and tries to shoulder bounce Corey to the stratosphere only to get caught with a stiff sharp jumping elbow to the jaw! Bates staggers back, eats another one! Corey steps back and then in with a superkick to the side of the knee that could have tore that shit to shreds! Billy: Corey has to chop this behemoth down and that's a pretty good way to do it.TUBby doesn't fall, he throttles Corey and launches him into the buckles! Bates rushes in with a back splash, crushing Black against the corner. Bates grabs Corey and flips him upside down before throwing him back first onto the mat with a gutwrench suplex! Nate Nytro: Bates seems to be too much man for Corey and also his own compatriots.Bates comes in to try to grab Corey again but Black uncorks the single craziest, most devastating bicycle knee strike to the head of all time. Bates' arms shoot out in front of him and he falls backward like a tree, slamming into the mat and bouncing his cranium like Gonzo Mudock's man titties. Nate Nytro: DRG stands for DAMN REALLY GONE.Billy: There's nobody home in Bates' eyes, his soul has left this plane!Corey rushes to the top rope and flies off with a big splash from the heavens! 1! 2! NO somehow Bates kicks out?! Nate Nytro: Maybe he was home all along, Billy. Just asleep at the wheel.Billy: He's struggling more than the bike he rode in on.
Corey stands up and Bates is slow, so slow, even slow to get up, but using the ropes he does. He's woozy, Corey kinda stands back and watches as Bates swings at nothing. He big boots the air, Corey is feet away. Nate Nytro: Man that knee did some shit.Bates has his hands up but it's nothing Corey can't easily navigate and spin through to CRACK THIS BIG GOOF IN THE FACE WITH A ROARING ELBOW. Bates crumples, sitting down with a thud, and by the time he shakes the cobwebs free Corey Black has bounced off the ropes behind him and come back with leaping through the air and sitting out with an elbow strike through this man's head. Billy: I don't know how much more the ref should allow, Corey is giving this man brain damage at this point!Nate Nytro: Yeah but I mean really, it's deserved.TUB is splayed out on the canvas, but Black wants more. He grabs the hair, trying to drag and position Bates, but Thomas is trembly. His limbs aren't working too well. He can't get a good base under him. Corey tries to muscle the big man up but it's like lifting a small car. The crowd has been loving every second of this and they're urging Corey on. Eventually it happens, just for Corey to kick that motherfucker in the gut and POWERBOMB THE SHIT OUT OF THE MASSIVE MAN. Nate Nytro: JESUS.Billy: SHITTTTTTTFIREEEEEEEEEE!A cover! 1! 2! NO shit, the crowd loses it as Bates kicks out! Billy: Maybe that woke him up!?Probably, Bates gets to his feet seemingly okay again?! A second wind?! Someone else writing his content?! Whatever the case, Bates whips Corey into the ropes and laughs as he does it but COREY BLACK COMES BACK WITH A BIG BOOT TO THE FACE SENDING BATES UP AND OVER THE TOP ROPE! Nate Nytro: HE DID IT HE SENT THAT BIG BITCH TO THE MOOOOOOON!TUB lands hard but makes it up to his feet at exactly the moment Corey Black has shot himself through the top and middle rope! TUB though catches Corey, spins, and overhead heaves Black into the ring through the ropes from which he came. Billy: Wow, some real return to sender stuff.Bates is proud of himself but Corey rolled through, hit the ropes and DOES IT AGAIN, SUICIDE DIVE ELBOW FIRST INTO THE BACK OF BATES' HEAD! TUB IS LAUNCHED FORWARD INTO THE BARRICADE! CROWD LOSES IT. NATE STANDS UP AND FIST PUMPS. Corey lands hard but whatever, he gets up and directs Bates back into the ring, Corey slides in too and hits a FACE SHATTERING SUPERKICK. Billy: HOW DID HE GET HIS FOOT THAT HIGH?!
Bates falls to his knees, Corey is in the corner, priming it, getting ready, the crowd is going ham. Nate Nytro: KILL THIS BITCH!Corey sprints out of the corner and steps through with an Earth shattering back elbow swinging strike to the face of Bates! TUB folds back on his legs but his girth kinda holds him up. Corey off the ropes, steps through and this time TO THE BACK OF THE HEAD. Billy: JEEEEZUZ.It's as if a shotgun has gone off in the middle of the ring, blood splatters out from Bates' head seemingly from the first shot but the second to the back really sends it flying. He's face first on the mat, though, Corey Black standing over him and the crowd losing their minds. Corey drops down, struggles but does roll that fat fuck over and pins his shoulders dead to the mat. 1. 2. 3. DING DING DING!Corey stands and throws his hands up as he is showered with cheers from the crowd. Billy: What a display! What an opening match to Actionstock! What a show we have in store!Nate Nytro: What a momentous occasion!Corey bows to the crowd and takes his leave as dozens of crew tend to Bates and eventually are able to remove his carcass from the ring.

A Surprise Match!
โALL MY LIFE! BEEN GRINDING ALL MY LIFE!โ A lone spotlight turns on directed down at the top of the stage as Nipsey Hustle blasts out over the arena sound system. The people as they give loud boos as Gerard Angelo is shown standing in the spotlight, back to the crowd, the hood of his hoodie pulled up, right arm raised above his head at an angle, one finger extended. He throws his hood back with the same hand and spins around to the crowd, arms extended as a massive explosion of fireworks go off on the stage. The house lights come back on as he puts a hand to his forehead, surveying the crowd behind his trademark sunglasses. Gerard makes his way down to the ring slowly, brushing off fans and taunting them. Nate Nytro: And this is a surprise! It looks like the former Action Wrestling World Champion is joining us in Athens tonight!Billy: Maybe Gerard knows where to get some real food around here. I dunno what moussaka is and I donโt like it.He stops at the ring stairs, slaps the top step before climbing them and walking to the center of the ring apron. Angelo surveys the arena crowd again to another round of boos, before slipping through the middle and top rope into the ring. He walks to the opposite ring post, leaping onto the second turnbuckle. Gerry points to the crowd before unzipping his hoodie, which gets more than a few ladies in the audience to scream out, before pulling it off and pretending to toss it to the fans, before just dropping it on the floor with a smirk. "The Hollywood Hero" hops down and removes his trademark sunglasses, placing them in the corner neatly before he leans back against the turnbuckles, mouthing off to the fans as he starts to stretch. Gerry looks around at the fans stuffed inside Panathenaic Stadium before asking for a microphone. When one is retrieved for him he stands up straight as the massive crowd fires back boos and cheers and all sorts of chants. Gerard Angelo: The Living Legend is live in your city Athens! I came all the way to Greece for a little tune-up match before Action Wrestling Havoc and I told the people running this show to find me one of the best in the world. Now Iโm a busy man and I got places to be so whoever is back there, donโt be afraid to come and get your ass kicked.Nate Nytro: Angelo is fired up tonight! And who wouldnโt be in front of over 45000 rabid wrestling fans?!Billy: Me because Iโve been trying to find a Taco Bell for days now.Gerry drops the mic and holds his arms out facing the ramp. Thatโs when the lights go out in the arena and a hushed murmur spreads out through the sold-out arena. ใดใผใซใใณใใฉใดใณ Gลrudendoragon flashes across the screen and the crowd erupts as the beginning to โMerry-go-roundโ by Man With A Mission blasts out over the PA as the stage becomes washed in a golden light. Gerardโs eyes go wide in the ring. Nate Nytro: HOLY SHIT! ITโS THE GOLDEN DRAGON! The former IWJP World Champion! Is it really him!?!?The crowd erupts again as โThe Golden Dragonโ Hiro Kamiyama walks out on the stage with his signature Gold Dragon mask and golden robes. He strides down to the ring, moving like water as he makes his way to the ring. Kamiyama stops at the bottom of the ramp and removes the mask, getting another pop as his face is shown. He climbs up the stairs and saunters up to the top turnbuckle to pose for the crowd. Gerard taps an imaginary watch on his wrist as he keeps his eyes locked on Hiro. โThe Golden Dragonโ slips into the ring and shrugs off his robes, starting to stretch in the corner as the house lights come back on. Nate Nytro: Wow! Just wow! Whoever put this matchup together pat yourself on the back because this has the potential to be awesome!Billy: I wonder if he could tell me what tzatziki sauce really is.The bell rings and the two wrestlers stare at each other as the crowd is popping, a โThis is Awesomeโ chant going out through the crowd. Kamiyama steps forward and offers a hand to Angelo, who looks around with a smirk before extending his own hand. They clasp but Gerry spins Hrio around and goes for his superkick but Kamiyama catches his foot. Gerard is hopping up and down on one foot, beginning and pleading with Hiro to reconsider. Kamiyama wags a finger and drives an elbow into Angeloโs knee. Gerry bends over to grab it but is met with a stiff knee that sends the Hollywood Hero stumbling back. Kamiyama comes back in and drives his elbow into the movie starโs face with a rolling elbow! Gerard falls to the mat but rolls out of the ring for a breather. Nate Nytro: Kamiyama coming out of the gates hot and I think Gerard Angelo is flustered. He wasnโt expecting someone like Kamiyama here tonight!Gerard gets back into the ring and charges at Kamiyama but is taken down with an arm drag. Gerard pops up and is flung over by another arm drag. Angelo springs back to his feet only to be nailed with a beautiful dropkick from Kamiyama. Gerard is slung across the top rope and a charging Kamiyama sends him out to the floor with a big running lariat. Angelo manages to land on his feet and slaps the apron in frustration as Hiro Kamiyama taunts him on the ropes. Angelo slides back into the ring and narrowly avoids a stomp from the Golden Dragon. Gerry rolls to his feet and ducks a lariat and turns around to hook Kamiyama and throws him up and over in a belly-to-belly suplex. Kamiyama gets to his feet but Angelo drills him head-first into the mat with a DDT! He goes for a cover. ONE! TWO! Kamiyama kicks out. Angelo gets up and grabs Hiro by his hair, pulling him to his feet. Nate Nytro: First pinfall attempt and Angelo gets a two count. Itโs going to take a lot more than that to keep down the Golden Dragon!Billy: Sure but Gerard Angelo is no slouch. He was at the top of the mountain in ADub for nearly half a year!Gerard hooks Kamiyama up for a vertical suplex but on the lift, Hiro wiggles out and lands behind Angelo. Kamiyama hooks him for a dragon suplex but Gerard fires elbows in quick succession to the side of the Japanese starโs head. Angelo runs forward and springboards off the second rope, looking for the cutter but Kamiyama counters it into a snap dragon suplex! Nate Nytro: Gold Dragon Suplex!Billy: Shitfire! That was a nasty bump.Angelo is holding the back of his neck on the mat as Hiro Kamiyama stands and pulls the Living Legend to his feet. Kamiyama gets pumped up and yells before spinning and delivering a huge discus lariat that turns Angelo inside out! Nate Nytro: TYPHOON LARIAT!Billy: Hey thatโs my thing!Kamiyama drops into a cover. ONE! TWO! THR-NO! Angelo kicks out! Kamiyama pulls Angelo up and sets him up with a double underhook but Gerard frees his arms and stands up, flipping Hiro over with a back body drop. Kamiyama gets back up but heโs met with a Heroโs Welcome to the face. Kamiyama is staggered and Angelo hits the second rope again and comes flying back with the cutter! Nate Nytro: Directorโs Cut! Angelo hit it! Billy: Kamiyama is out!Angelo hooks the leg! ONE! TWO! THR-NO! Kamiyama kicks out! Gerard slaps the mat and gets up, pulling the Golden Dragon to his feet. He stuffs Hiroโs head between his knees, setting him up for his finisher but Kamiyama fights out of it and delivers a massive open-hand chop to the chest of Angelo, making it echo throughout the stadium. Gerry winces but comes back with a chop of his own. The two trade chops before Hiro gets the upper hand with multiple in a row before going for another discus lariat. Angelo ducks and tries to come back with a neck breaker but Kamiyama spins and hooks Angelo for the dragon suplex but Angelo flips out and lands on his feet! Hiro turns quickly but is met with a superkick to the jaw. Kamiyama drops to the mat and Gerard looks like heโs had enough. He walks over to the turnbuckle and starts climbing up. By the time he reaches the top, Hiro kips up to his feet and runs, Jumping to the top turnbuckle! Nate Nytro: HOLY SHIT! Hiro Kamiyama just came back from the dead!Billy: He wants the baklava!Kamiyama hooks him for a superplex but Angelo fights it with punches to the ribs. Hiro tries again but Gerard pulls his legs out making Kamiyama land hard on his tailbone on the turnbuckle. Hiro falls back but grabs the rope to try and pull himself back up. Angelo doesnโt give him the chance as he leaps and delivers a double stomp to the chest, driving the โGolden Dragonโ down to the mat in a crumpled heap! Nate Nytro: Cliffhanger! Gerard Angelo just drove his boots through the chest of the Golden Dragon!Angelo gets to his feet and signals for the end. He pulls Kamiyama back to his feet hooks him and drills Hiro into the mat with the Hollywood Ending! Angelo flops down into a cover. ONE! TWO! THREE! Nate Nytro: Hollywood Ending! Itโs over!Billy: Iโm gonna DoorDash McDonaldโs. You want something?Angelo gets to his feet wearily as the ref raises his hand in front of the sold-out stadium in Athens. He points at Kamiyama as he gets up and nods before exiting the ring.

Dionysus vs. Surprise!
Nate Nytro: What a night it has been, and this next match has the makings of a classic.. let's see how this next man is received here!Pyro fires along the edge of the stage as "What Artist Dies In Me" rips through the crowd. From backstage, Dionysus confidently strode out onto the stage, confidently holding a single arm in the air Dionysus took a moment to look around the venue as he began to walk down the ramp. He spent a few seconds slapping high fives before locking eyes with the ring. Walking over to the ring steps, he climbs up, placing a hand on the top rope. He entered in-between the top and middle ropes, all while looking at his opponent. He turned to the crowd, raising a single fist into the air, keeping it in the air as he turned toward the stage. Dionysus then moved to the turnbuckle, waiting for his opponent. Billy: Dionysus is in Athens and seems to be ready to make a statement!A few seconds passed before Moskau began to play throughout the arena. A man dressed in a cow mask and a wrestling singlet steps out from backstage, dancing along to the beat. The crowd cheers in a combination of excitement and bewilderment at what they are seeing. Nate Nytro: Are you shitting me?As he shimmies his way down the ramp, MosCOW points at Dionysus, who is laughing as he sees his opponent come down to the ring. He too gets into the spirit of things by clapping to the rhythm, an action that the crowd follows with delight. MosCOW slides into the ring, holding both arms up in the air to the cheering of the crowd. He then turns to face Dionysus. DINGAs the referee calls for the bell, Dionysus holds a hand out to MosCOW, who graciously accepts the handshake. Then the two part, circling each other around the ring before getting in close with a tie-up. Dionysus takes the initiative to whip MosCOW to the ropes, catching him on the rebound and planting him to the mat with a spinebuster! Dionysus quickly covers! One... Tw-NOOOO!!! Billy: Udderly insane action!MosCOW manages to kick out, shoving Dionysus off of him. Dionysus moves around to the back of MosCOW, but as he tried getting him to a sitting position, MosCOW also turns to deliver a right hook! Both men stagger to their feet, and while Dionysus is stunned, MosCOW backpedals toward the ropes, rebounding toward Dionysus and hitting him with a dropkick! Dionysus hits the mat hard, clutching at his chest, while MosCOW climbs to the top rope. MosCOW gets the crowd pumped up by clapping as Dionysus slowly makes it to his feet, and as he stands MosCOW dives, nailing a flying crossbody which he calls an Udder Smash! MosCOW follows through on the crossbody with a pin! One! Two! Three! MosCOW stands in celebration, but the referee points out that Dionysus's leg was on the ropes! The match continues on! Billy: MosCOW thought he had it but Dionysus had the milky smooth save!MosCOW shakes his head as Dionysus stirs, using the ropes to get back to his feet. MosCOW whips Dionysus toward the opposite ropes from where he was climbing up, as he also rebounded on the ropes. Running toward each other, MosCOW tries to nail Dionysus with a spear, but Dionysus counters with a big boot! MosCOW is down on the ground, clutching his shoulder where the impact occurred! Dionysus waits for MosCOW to sit up before running at him, nailing a shining wizard, then jumping toward the middle ropes in order to flip and land on top of the brawling bovine! Dionysus connects with The Praetorian! Dionysus roars out in satisfaction, getting the crowd behind him. He's feeling like the end is near, as he stands up, holding a hand out for MosCOW to take. He accepts, but as MosCOW gets to his feet, he kicks at Dionysus's leg, causing him to break his grasp! MosCOW charges toward the ropes, rebounds off, and flies at Dionysus with another Udder Smash! MOSCOW CONNECTS! ...BUT DIONYSUS ROLLS THROUGH THE HIT, CATCHING MOSCOW IN THE AIR! Dionysus sets MosCOW down, still grasping an arm! HE PULLS HIM THROUGH! GRRRRRRAPEVINE!!! COVER! ONE! TWO! THREE! DING DING DING"What Artist Dies in Me" plays in celebration of Dionysus's victory. Billy: Incredible win for Dionysus tonight, he's bringing home the cheese for sure! Nate where you been?Nate Nytro: Cringing at all your fucking cow puns, this is why I work alone at XIII.After taking a moment for himself to celebrate in the ring, he watches MosCOW get to his feet, clutching at his hurt shoulder. Dionysus grins, holding out his hand once again. MosCOW takes Dionysus's hand, and is immediately pulled...into a hug. The crowd cheers and awws at the sign of good sportsmanship, as Dionysus holds up MosCOW's arm and points at him. MosCOW pats Dionysus on the shoulder and rolls out of the ring, making his way back to the locker room as Dionysus continues to celebrate. ...Then the music immediately cuts, and the lights go out. The atmosphere changes from excitement to curiosity as the crowd settles and mutters amongst themselves. The entryway begins to glow a purplish hue, as two figures step out from backstage, their faces obscured, each holding a microphone in their hand. Voice 1: Ebb...The voice who had said "Ebb" bows slowly. Voice 2: Flow...The voice who had said "Flow" also bows slowly. Ebb: We have watched.Flow: We have observed.Ebb: He believes you are ready.Flow: We know you are ready.Ebb: Go to him.Flow: To the place where it all began.The two lowered their mics, still looking at Dionysus, his face bewildered at these strange men talking to him. A few moments passed before they both raised their microphones once more. Ebb & Flow: Elysium...is calling...As "The Color" started playing throughout the arena, the lights on-stage flickered rapidly, obscuring everything on the stage. When the lights normalized, the two figures were gone. Dionysus ran a hand through his hair, wondering who those men were.

SAY WHAAT
Nate Nytro: Athens, Greece is the stage and โThe thumping synths of โHerโ by Megan Thee Stallion reverberates through the arena, as Meganโs voiceover comes over the speakers and the booming bass shakes the seats underneath each audience member. They rise to their feet in anticipation of the arrival of Action Wrestlingโs Womenโs Champion, "The Dreamerโ Lissie Hope! Nate Nytro: OH MY GOD! I know sheโs been spending some of her weekends on this side of the globe for THE MOST EXCL(BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP) OF THE YEAR, but this is a surprise! I donโt think anyone expected Lissie Hope to grace us with her appearance tonight!โI don't care if these bitches don't like me 'Cause, like, I'm pretty as fuck, hahahahaโThe crowd jumps out of their seats as Megan raps the first verse, and the anticipation is growing, and the cheers start to crescendo as it remixes into the chorus. โI'm her, her, her, her, her, her, her, her She, she, she, she, she, she, sheโFinally, the curtains spread and Lissie Hope emerges at the top of the entrance stage! Sheโs just for the occasion โ a lily-white toga that is split up her thigh, accentuating all the right parts of her form! The off-the-shoulder look exposes her neckline and the bodice hugs around her curves. She holds the Womenโs Championship up in her right hand as she begins her march down the ramp in a pair of all-white Converse sneakers! Nate Nytro: She looks absolutely MESMERIZING tonight! I canโt tell if sheโs ready to party or if sheโs ready to fight! The last time she was in Athens was when she attended Atara and James Ravenโs wedding last year, and clearly, she couldnโt stay away!โI ain't scared of shit, man or bitch To everybody hating, y'all can suck this clitโโI'm her, her, her, her, her, her, her, her She, she, she, she, she, she, sheโThe screen at the South end of the stadium shows a graphic of Jill Parkโs 123 days wiped away with Lissie Hopeโs 129 days! Lissie admires the graphic and gives herself a clap, the wide smile on her face growing with the escalation of cheers from the Grecian crowd. Nate Nytro: Lissie Hope wants a microphone! She stands in the center of the ring, waiting for the crowd to die down, before bringing the microphone up to her lips. Lissie Hope: The competitiveness of this business makes all of us see things where they might not otherwise be seen or noticed or acknowledged. Title reigns in this company, in particular, are fleeting. Iโm reminded of it every time someone wants to hee-haw at my seven-day reign at the top of Action Wrestling. But thereโs a balance there if you look at the details. The Womenโs Championship was revealed early last year, and the beautiful and strong Jessie Lee was the first one to hold this gold in the air. The big screen shows a clip of Jessie winning the belt at Revolution V. Sheโs met with a chorus of cheers. Lissie Hope: And one by one, as this belt exchanged hands, it seemed to gain more and more relevance. More importance. The list of amazing women who have won this belt grew and grew with every event โ A clip of the CruiserClash Jackpot - Lissie Hope: Serenity Holmes!CHEEEEEEEEEER!!!! A clip of Evolution V - Lissie Hope: Alice Gemini -BOOOOOOOOO!!! A clip of Clash of Champions - Lissie Hope: Jill ParkโฆBOOOOOOOOO!!! BOOOOOOOOO!!! BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!! Lissie motions with her hands for the crowd to quiet down. Finally, they begin to die down. Lissie Hope: I know, I know. Those were dark days. Sheโs not the easiest person to get behind โ unless youโre Jake Paul.The fans laugh with her inappropriate joke. Lissie Hope: And I know itโs been a long year. A long, dark year. But for all the things Jill isnโt - for all the things sheโs had her hand in damaging - for all of the help she may have gotten โ it doesnโt matter. We canโt take this away from her. Jill Park is still one of the most dominant superstars to ever grace an Action Wrestling ring. A US Champion โ and an All-In winner โ and the current World Champion โ and before this weekโฆ the longest, standing Womenโs Champion.The fans erupt with cheers, knowing that Lissie โ a master at back-handed and self-serving compliments โ is actually taking a dig at her. Lissie Hope: Iโm so glad I was the person to knock her reign out of the record books and bring this Womenโs Championship to new highs! To give Action Wrestling a female ambassador to be proud of! To show the WORLD that thereโs no Jill Park accolade that I canโtโฆA pause. Lissie Hope: โฆerase.A smirk from her lips as a sense of calm comes through the screen. Lissie Hope: But the time for that isnโt now. She might not be thinking of the Womenโs Championship now. She might not see me as a threat right now. And thatโs fine โ Iโve come to understand that expectations for someone like her are just that โ expectations. What I want to do now is do what she doesnโt โ and give someone an opportunity. Let them reap the rewards for what theyโve earned. Celebrate my reign by not sitting on the sidelines and giving someone a chance to come and take it from me!She starts removing her toga to reveal an all-white wrestling outfit! The fans are losing their minds! Nate Nytro: Oh my god! No one expected a Womenโs Championship match tonight!Lissie Hope: Early this year, Action Wrestling purchased Fite Queens. And Iโve been itching to see what this Fite Queens titleholder can do! She was the Fighter of the Year, twice. Over two years, she defended her title 35 times. And now? In front of all of you here at ActionStock โ come on out, Punky!8 KALACAS - R2RITO hits and the crowd immediately stands on their feet popping out their chairs and rocking out! Punky comes through the curtain and walks to the top of the ramp with swag and confidence. Her tongue sliding out of her mouth as she looks to her left and right and flexes on her jacket pulling it off her shoulders almost in front of her. Punky poses both fists out in front of her as she has gold rings on her left hand and her right hand with brass knuckles that say PUNKY across them. She comes down the ramp as the crowd is head banging to the theme song! Punk gets to the bottom of the ramp and just runs into the ring, sliding underneath the bottom rope and rolling to her feet. She gets up by walking backwards to the hard cam, quickly spins around and flexes and pulls on her jacket again as the crowd marks out! She takes the jacket off and leaves it over the top rope as she backs into her own corner ready for the match to begin. Nate Nytro: HERE WE GO!!Punky holds her hands together in gratitude and the two embrace with a fist bump before retreating to their corners as the deafening crowd is split right down the middle! Nate Nytro: Lissie Hope is clearly the favorite tonight, but everyone loves to see an underdog! What this would do for Punkyโs young career if she can take the belt off someone like Lissie Hope! Punky and Lissie Hope come out of their respective corners and meet in the center of the ring. They circle around each other for a few moments before tying up in the middle of the ring. They twist until Lissie gets the upper hand and pulls Punky into a side headlock. Punky pushes Lissie off of her and into the ropes where Lissie rebounds towards Punky, dropping down and sliding between her legs and popping back up to her feet behind her. Lissie grabs a wrist clutch from behind on Punky, only to have Punky elbow her way free. Punky spins around and gets the same hold on Lissie, only to have Lissie elbow her way free, and get a side headlock in on Punky. Punky lifts Lissie off her feet, looking for a suplex, only to have Lissie rolls through and land on her feet behind her. Punky goes for a roundhouse kick, that Lissie ducks under before having Punky chop blocks her knee, knocking her down to the mat. Punky moves in, looking to target her with a sharpshooter. Nate Nytro: It looks like Punky has Lissie scouted! That knee has never been full strength ever since her war with Tatiana Jolee last November at Turmoil!Lissie sees it coming though and pushes Punky back with her foot. Both wrestlers get back to their feet and Punky scores with a kick to the stomach which doubles Lissie over, before pushing her back into the ropes and whipping her across the ring. Lissie rebounds off the ropes and jumps into Punky, bringing her down with an arm drag takeover. Each of them get back to their feet again, with Lissie taking Punkyโs leg out from underneath her and lays on top of her for a pin, which Punky kicks out of before the referee gets down. Both of them get back to their feet and stand apart for a moment, acknowledging each other with a show of good sportsmanship, appreciating the cheers from the crowd! Nate Nytro: Itโs nothing personal tonight! All business as Punky tries to take advantage of the momentous occasion! And Lissie appreciates her tenacity and preparation!Lissie extends a hand for a shake and Punky carefully obliges, full expecting a savvy move from the veteran. But Lissie releases the handshake and the two hop in place for the reset. They begin to circle each other and tie up in the middle of the ring. Punky works Lissie back into the corner where she scores with a pair of kicks into Lissieโs ribs. Lissie stumbles out of the corner and Punky scores with a couple more kicks before running into the ropes, rebounding back, and tossing Lissie back into the turnbuckle with a running push. Lissie pushes back on Punky before spinning around and springboarding off the middle rope and bringing Punky down with a headscissors takeover. Lissie rushes forward as Punky gets up in the opposite turnbuckle, only to have Punky duck her and toss her out to the ring apron. Lissie jumps up, trying to springboard back into the ring, only to have Punky level her with a big super kick across the jaw! Nate Nytro: WHOA! I donโt think Lissie expected that!Punky quickly sees that momentum is on her side as Lissie grabs at her jaw! She goes to grab Lissie, only to have Lissie hit her with a defensive shoulder to the midsection, followed by a second and a third. Lissie drops Punky with a running uppercut before stalking her like prey as she recovers. The moment Punky gets up to a kneeling position, Lissie moves forward looking to hit a running punt, but Punky dodges it. As Lissieโs leg ricochets off the bottom rope, she turns and Punky drops her with a running neckbreaker! Punky quickly exits through the ropes before springboarding over the top rope, landing a flipping senton onto Lissieโs midsection!

Punky places her hands on the top ropes and throws herself up, sending Lissie underneath her. Lissie jumps up to the middle rope before jumping off right into a kick from Punky. Lissie stumbles right into Punkyโs arm, who locks her into a bear hug. Punky smiles brightly as she squeezes Lissie tightly. Lissie tries to escape, as the crowd begins to clap on her behalf, but Punky only squeezes her tighter. And Punky throws her halfway across the damn ring with a release belly to belly suplex! Nate Nytro: HOLY CRAP! The power in that woman! Lissie is in big trouble!The fans are completely silent as Punky has a big hop on her step, the motivation completely on her side! As Lissie stumbles to her feet, Punky lifts her up into a firemanโs carry! Nate Nytro: SHEโS GOING FOR THE GO 2 SLEEP!
