Calgary Stampede Saddledome in Calgary, AB Capacity: 28,000
Before we go to the live crowd, an action-packed highlight package plays with highlights of the Match Madness Tournament, ending with a split screen of Odin Balfore and Tatiana Jolee celebrating their semi-final victories. We then head inside the arena, where 28,000 screaming fans enjoy a top-notch pyrotechnics show. We then head right to Billy and Chris Avery.
Billy: Howdy! Welcome to Match Madness!
Chris Avery: We've got a great show for you tonight, folks! Title matches! Contendership Match! Losers Bracket Match! And a Hell in a Cell TLC Match! It's going to be awesome!
Billy: You ain't lyin'! Then in the main event--
Knuckle up blast in the arena, as Karlie steps on the stage wearing an Edmonton Oilers McDavid jersey she smirks as she makes her way to the ring. She steps into the ring and asks for a mic.
Karlie Nash: Did you all think I would wear a jersey of your loser team, your two best players left because they knew the Flames sucked.
Karlie takes in the boos from the crowd.
Karlie Nash: Tonight you get to watch people who actually know how to win. Tonight in this ring you get to witness a true wrestling superstar do what she does best, win. Sure you look at the other team and you think we have no chance, essentially we're the Oilers who everyone wants to see lose but they win just to piss people off. Gerald Angelo is a former world champion but he’s not unbeatable, Jessie Lee hasn’t been living up to the hype lately, Andre who knows what has happened to Andre he went from Cruiserweight champion to completely irrelevant, and Niobe well let’s she is she’s a legit champion or a flash in the pan.
Karlie smirks.
Karlie Nash: DRAUGR, Vespertine, Jody Madrox and myself, were the underdogs but underdogs have a tendency to shock the world, tonight here in the second best hockey city in Alberta, the underdogs will rise, and you people can actually see a winning team or once. Now hit my music.
Karlie exited the arena.
Billy: Karlie sure knows how to get a crowd goin', pal!
Chris Avery: And she seems confident in her team's chances tonight!
Billy: Well, let's get this party started! We're kickin' things off with a fatal four way match that--
Chris Avery: Hold on. We're getting word now that... okay... this match has changed.
Billy: I don't know what's goin' on, folks... but this match is now a triple threat match.
Chris Avery: Super Mario did not report to the building today. We'll report more when we know more, I guess.

Mystery Reward @ April Fools Gold Super Mario vs. The Green vs. Muru vs. Isara
"God Eater" by Fear Factory hits the speakers hard as hell and the crowd gets hyped. After 15 seconds, Keynan Isara walks out from the back with a pissed off look on his face. He stands at the top of the ramp, arms crossed over his chest. Jayson Stasiak steps out from the back, helping to hype the crowd, before patting Keynan on the arm. Keynan looks over at Jayson with a smirk on his face before marching down the ramp. Jayson Stasiak points at Keynan as he talks to random fans, telling them how great Keynan is. Keynan jogs up the ring steps and ducks in between the ropes and hops into the ring. He goes to the turnbuckles and poses on each one, just staring out into the crowd with a fierce look on his face before finally hopping down and waiting for the match to begin. [Up on the tron a picture of the earth is seen. The earth then explodes as pyro and explosions fill the arena. The entrance ramp is filled with smoke as "Handshakes To Fist Fights" by Devour The Day begins to play. Muru then walks out through the smoke and makes his way down the ramp. Along the way to the ring he slaps the hands of a few fans and then he slides into the ring. Once in the ring he gets to his feet and raises his hands to the air as the crowd cheers] Billy: Muru was damn impressive last week against the mighty DRAUGR. I’m lookin’ forward to seein’ what he brings to the table tonight, pal! The lights go out. An ancient, gravelly voice reverberates through the arena. “One. Year. Hence.”
The frantic build of Winter by Vivaldi hits the PA, as an image of a tree appears on the screens above the stage. It passes through the seasons, starting in pleasant spring, continuing on to a rainy summer, then a windy autumn, and finally a blizzard of winter. Pale spotlights flicker over the entrance tunnel, as a towering man enters the arena, head held low and covered by his cloak, gripping a large axe. As the first violin solo begins, he lifts his head and the lights stop flickering, revealing the monstrous mask of The Green. He raises his ax, and the lights return to a flicker, darting wildly around the ringside area. He strides down the ramp with purpose, pausing only to glare balefully at the audience. Ethan Miller: “From the time of heroes… weighing in at 290 pounds… The Green.”
The Green mounts the ring apron, then steps over the top rope and marches to the center of the ring. He turns his glare to his opponent, raises his ax, then brings it down, the lights flashing at the moment of impact with the canvas, before going dark. Two quick raps of the handle on the canvas, and the lights come up, The Green now in his corner and having removed his mask. Billy: I don’t know what to make of this guy just yet… but he certainly is different. Chris Avery: Right you are, Billy. DING DING DING
The Green stands in the center of the ring and he looks at both opponents. He holds out his arms and welcomes the fight. Muru charges at him and he takes flight for a crossbody, but The Green catches him and bodyslams him in the center of the ring. Muru rolls to the apron. Isara clobbers The Green from behind and works him to the nearest corner. He rams his shoulders a few times into The Green’s torso before backing out. From behind, Muru leapfrogs him and splashes The Green in the corner. Billy: OH DANG! Chris Avery: This match off to a hot start!
The fans cheer as Muru makes his way to the center of the ring. Isara turns to Muru and charges at him, eating a hip toss from Muru. When Muru turns toward The Green, he is taken down with a powerful lariat. The Green stands on Muru’s chest and steps over him, trying to collapse his organs. As he clears Muru, Isara uppercuts The Green. He follows up with a barrage of strikes before hitting the ropes, only for The Green to catch him with a boss man slam, right on top of Muru. Billy: He just slammed a motherfucker on a motherfucker! Chris Avery: Language!
The Green gets to his feet and he peers out at the crowd, who boo this man. He then covers Isara’s chest with only his foot. ONE!
KICKOUT!!
He then covers Muru’s chest with only his foot. ONE!
KICKOUT!!The Green pulls both men up off of the mat, and he pats them on the head, before taking off to the ropes. He goes for a double clothesline, but they both duck. On the rebound, Muru and Isara double spear the fuck out of The Green. The Green hits the mat and rolls to the apron. Muru and Isara turn their attention to one another, lighting each other with a barrage of strikes. Isara gets the upper hand and he goes to whip Muru to the corner, but Muru reverses it and sends Isara to the corner. Muru follows up with a corner shining wizard and a running bulldog out of the corner. Billy: Heck of a combo! Chris Avery: There’s the cover! ONE!
TWO!!
NOOO!!!
THE GREEN BREAKS IT UP JUST IN TIME!The Green drags Muru up, and Muru blasts free. He elbows The Green in the jaw before trying to whip him to the ropes. The Green counters it and he sends Muru to the ropes instead. On the rebound, Muru ducks a clothesline attempt from The Green, and then hits a middle rope springboard crossbody, taking The Green down to the mat. Muru follows up with a middle rope moonsault. Billy: SHITFIRE!
Chris Avery: THERE’S THE COVER!! ONE!
TWO!!
NOOO!!!
ISARA BREAKS IT UP JUST IN TIME!Isara clobbers Muru while he’s down and then pitches him into the corner, sending his shoulder ramming hard into the ringpost. Isara turns around and stomps his feet as The Green gets up off of the mat. Isara lets out a primal roar before charging and spearing The Green down to the mat. Billy: SAMOAN SPEAR! Chris Avery: THERE’S THE COVER!! ONE!

Muru lunges over to break it up, but he doesn’t make it in time. Billy: WHAT A MATCH! Chris Avery: What a debut for The Green, and a damn impressive showing for Muru! Billy: What's the Mystery Prize though?!

LET'S HEAR FROM JONNY CEDRONE... Billy: In a matter of moments we will have the Triple Threat Match for the Action Wrestling United States Championship where the US Champion, Doc Holiday has the daunting task in defending the Championship against TJ Alexander and a former US Champion, Jonny Cedrone. Who’s your money on Chris? Chris Avery: If I’ve learned anything from Pete Rose it’s that one should not be gambling on sports…besides it’s too hard to call in this match. All three competitors are more than capable of winning this match and all three competitors, I believe, would be great US Champions! Doc Holiday has proven that his goal is to hold onto the US Championship for as long as he possibly can. We’ll see just how low he’ll stoop – if he’ll stoop low at all – in order to keep the Championship. Billy: I understand that Jade Riley has one of the competitors in the backstage area, ready to conduct an interview with him. Jade?
The scene cuts to the backstage area. We see Jade Riley standing between Gloria to her right and Jonny Cedrone to her left as the fans in the arena go crazy at the sight of the former US Champion! Jade Riley: That’s right Billy! I have the privilege to speak with the former Hardcore, US and Tag Team Champion, Jonny Cedrone. Jonny, tonight you attempt to win back the US Championship but you’re fighting an uphill challenge with the two competitors you’re standing in the ring with tonight. TJ Alexander, who’s just as hungry as you are to win the Championship for the first time and Doc Holiday, who is just as hungry as you are to keep the US Championship around his waist. Jonny Cedrone: The time has finally come Jade. The time has finally come for the big showdown! The time has finally come where the three of us quit talking with our words and let our fists do the talking!
The fans erupt in cheers! Jonny Cedrone: It’s time to shut up and put up! And let me just tell you two one thing, any words of respect, any words of kindness, I meant…but what I also meant was once that bell rings any and all respect goes right out the window. When the three of us get in that ring, we’re nothing more than three gladiators, three warriors fighting over the one prize that means more than life itself – the United States Championship! To be the US Champion means that you represent The People, something that neither one of you know a damn thing about! I’ve been The People’s Champion longer than either one of you have been in this business! I’ve gone out there in that ring and I put on wrestling clinics all over the globe for the entertainment of The People!
Another pop from the fans! Jade Riley: Jonny, before I let you go, I have one more question. It’s been said a time or two from other members of the AW roster that you keep getting handed opportunities. Do you have anything to say to those critics? Jonny Cedrone: Jealousy will get you nowhere! In all seriousness though, how was I “handed” this opportunity? I went out to that ring and fought in a Triple Threat match against Karlie Nash and Vespertine. The last I checked those are two of the most prominent athletes in this company…Hell, in this entire industry!...that match certainly could’ve gone any way, it just so happened that I was the better wrestler that night. So if anyone thinks that I was given this opportunity, they can just kiss my ass!
A big pop from the fans! Jonny Cedrone: Now it may be true that I haven’t always come out on top in these opportunities, but I’m makin’ the best outta this one Jade! Dammit, I want the US Championship so bad I can damn near taste it! I can almost smell it! I can almost feel it over my shoulder! …I can almost see it in the possession of The People where it rightfully belongs.
Another pop from the fans! Jonny Cedrone: Doc, TJ, you don’t understand something. Like I’ve said, this is MY fight to win and it’s MY fight to lose. The bottom line is though, I’m not here to lose.
Another big pop from the fans! Jonny Cedrone: The time has finally come for the US Championship to come home to The People!
Jonny looks deadpan into the camera with the most serious of looks as the fans erupt in cheers. He walks off camera as Jade throws it back to Billy and Chris at ringside.

Mercedes Alexus Demareux vs. Addy A(c)
"Walk on By, Walk on By Walk on By, Walk on By"
The crowd starts to boo, whether it's for Doja Cat or Mercedes Demareux we'll never know. "Bitch I said what I said I'd Rather be Famous Instead" Ethan Miller: Making her way to the ring from Water Valley, Mississippi, standing at 5 foot 3 inches and weighing in at 125 pounds, she is "The Trailer Park Princess" Mercedes... Alexus... DEMAREUX!!!
From behind the curtain comes "The Trailer Park Princess" Mercedes Alexus Demareux. The crowd boo's her as she yells at them to "Shut up!" and gets in the faces of the fans as she makes her way to the ring. Her Parole Officer follows close behind her trying to maintain some order and usher her into the ring and keep the fighting in the ring and not in the stands. Once she gets to ring side she climbs the steps and onto the ring apron leaning against the ropes continuing to talk smack to the crowd as they boo her. She pulls on the ropes to test them out and paces around the ring waiting for the match to begin. Lexi Stone: Ms. Demareux made a surprising return a few weeks back, when she attacked Addy A and stole the Cruiserweight Championship. Jimmy Garcia: It all worked out for her, because it got her this title match tonight!
The Arena is bathed in a a deep pink hue as the opening of "Nightmare" by Halsey echoes throughout the sold out Action Wrestling venue. "Now I lay me down to sleep I pray the Lord my soul to keep If I shall die before I wake I pray the Lord my soul to take" The lights in the venue start pulsating between between the pink hue and the brilliant white light in time with each high hat beat of her entrance music as the first verse punctuates the rabid noise of the crowd. "I, I keep a record of the wreckage in my life I gotta recognize the weapon in my mind They talk shit, but I love it every time And I realize" Addy A bursts through the curtain and stands on the stage as the venue goes dark except for a single pink spotlight focused on her at the top of the ramp. "I've tasted blood and it is sweet I've had the rug pulled beneath my feet I've trusted lies and trusted men Broke down and put myself back together again" Plumping up her cleavage she completes a three hundred and sixty degree spin. "Stared in the mirror and punched it to shatters Collected the pieces and picked out a dagger" When facing the ring once more she bends over and touches the floor with one hand and slaps herself twice on the ass with her other hand, before heading down the steel to the ring. "I've pinched my skin in between my two fingers And wished I could cut some parts off with some scissors" As theme continues continues, on the way to the ring Adelaide randomly picks an audience member, and teases rubbing their face into her cleavage, before wiggling a finger 'no'. "Come on little lady, give us a smile No, I ain't got nothing to smile about I got no one to smile for, I've waited a while for A moment to say "I don't owe you a Goddamn thing" Continuing to school girl skip along to the ring. Once reaching the apron, Addy pulls herself onto the ring apron, she does the splits down on the apron. Pausing as she folds her she under the bottom rope. "I, I keep a record of the wreckage in my life I gotta recognize the weapon in my mind They talk shit, but I love it every time And I realize No sweet dream but I'm a hell of a night That I'm no sweet dream, but I'm a hell of a night" She pops up to her feet and covers her mouth in faux shock acting as she didn't intend to show her ass to the crowd. Ethan Miller: Coming to the ring, by way of Venice, California.... she is the current, reigning, defending Action Wrestling Cruiserweight Champion... ADDY AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!! Jimmy Garcia: What an honor it is to have Addy A represent CruiserClash on the big stage! Lexi Stone: I hope CruiserClash comes back soon, Jimmy. It's kind of silly that we travel to the show every week just to call one match. DING DING DING
As the bell rings, Addy taunts the crowd which gets cheers while MAD taunts and she gets boos in the process. Addy taunts again, but she gets pearl harbored in the back from MAD and she chokes her near the ropes until she breaks it off by the count of three from the ref. MAD then open slaps her a few times, and smacks the champion. She tries to Slap her again, Addy blocks it and she gives her a few Punches to the face, and connects with a Snapmare with a Dropkick to her back. Jimmy Garcia: Heck of a dropkick! Lexi Stone: And there goes Ms. Demareux!
MAD rolls out the ring to catch her breath, and Addy taunts for her to come back into the ring. As the ref was counting to three, MAD rolls back into the ring and they have a stand off. They lock up and were trying to out move one another, MAD was able to get Addy on the corner and she Open Slaps her in the face, and she smack talks to one of the crows in the process. Lexi Stone: She's got a heck of a bite to back up that bark! Jimmy Garcia: Indeed!
MAD gives her some Knife Edge Chops on her chest, but Addy manages to block her chop and she reverses her on the corner and dishes out her own Punches in the corner. She backs away and tries to hit a Running Knee, but MAD ducks the attempt. MAD then Eye gouges Addy and she does a Hairpull Snapmare. Then she goes on top of Addy and she starts a Catfight-like attack on her. It lead to them rolling near the ropes and they break it off, MAD then gives some cheap shots on Addy who was trying to get on her feet, then she gives her an Uppercut. As Addy was stumbling, she Irish Whips Addy and hits her with a Double A Spinebuster and covers her for the pin. Lexi Stone: WOW! Jimmy Garcia: THERE'S THE COVER! ONE!
TWO!!
KICKOUT!!!MAD got mad at the ref over the slow count, and she grabs her by the hair to her feet. Then she brings her to the corner and she slams her head on the top turnbuckle. She stops after the ref counted to four, and she rams her shoulder to the post. Lexi Stone: This vicious attack might be too much for Addy!
Then she attempts to go for her Parole Violation, but ADDY manages to put her foot up to her midsection/groin area to stop her. From out of nowhere, we see MAD’s Parole Officer Steve using his nightstick to strangle her from the outside. Jimmy Garcia: Come on, ref!
The ref catches him and reprimanded him for it, then we see MAD cheering him on as the crowd boos her. She then gets tossed a bottle of beer at her, and she ignores it. MAD then lifts Addy up to her feet and does a Muay Thai Clinch with Knees to side and face, and connects with a Headlock Takeover with Mounted Punches. She then stomps on her body, and showboats to the crowd. Lexi Stone: She should stay focused on Addy rather than the crowd!
MAD circles around the ring as Addy slowly gets on her feet. Jimmy Garcia: What does she have in mind?!
MAD then runs up on Addy and hits the TRAILER PARK TWISTER ON ADDY!! ONE!
TWO!!
THR--
KICKOUT!!!MAD gets up and she stomps her feet, while shouting at the referee to count faster. Before she can go to Addy, the ActionTron lights up and we see MAD's Camaro out on the street in front of Parole Officer Steve's house. The camera pans closer, and the car explodes in a huge fireball of flames. The fire keeps burning as words appear on the screen: "Mess with the best, die like the rest." The video ends and MAD is furious. She see Addy sitting up in the corner, and she takes out her frustrations with mudhole stomps to the champ. Lexi Stone: FOOD STOMPS!!
She keeps stomping and stomping and stomping and stomping and stomping, until she grows tired of stomping. She then goes to the middle of the ring and flips Addy off. Jimmy Garcia: Oh we know what's coming! PAROLE VIO-- Lexi Stone: OHMYGODNOOOOO!!!! ADDY JUST--
Everyone in the building is stunned as Addy clenches her teeth into-- ... ... ... Yeah. So, uhh, the referee scolds Addy for the-- ... ... ... ... illegal maneuver. Lexi Stone: ... Jimmy Garcia: ...
MAD screams out in agony and Addy lets go of the... hold. Lexi Stone: Wow. Just... wow.
MAD backs out of the corner and she falls to the mat, holding her... self. Addy stands up in the corner with a smile on her face, and she follows up by locking a triangle hold on MAD. Jimmy Garcia: ADDY HAS MERCEDE CHOKING HER HER-- Lexi Stone: You can say it, Jimmy. Jimmy Garcia: WAP!!!
It isn't long before MAD is forced to tap out. DING DING DING Ethan Miller: The winner of this match... and STILL... Action Wrestling Cruiserweight Champion... ADDY AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!! Lexi Stone: What a match. Jimmy Garcia: Indeed. Let's not forget that Addy A is also the number one contender for the Television Championship, and she recieves a shot against Niobe Martin next week on Monday Night Clash! Lexi Stone: And I think we get to call the action for that one. Jimmy Garcia: Indeed!

LET'S HEAR FROM JODY MADROX...
It opens to a pre tape of Jody and JB standing outside of the arena while the people where lining up to enter the show. While both men were in their gear from Jody’s last promo, they are greeted by Jade who was in a jacket since it was cold earlier in the day to talk about his upcoming match. Jade Riley: Hey Jody, are you ready for the loser bracket match tonight? Jody Madrox: I guess so, I mean I really don’t need to think about this match. I don’t even think about winning the thing since I am a loser. Jade Riley: Do you think that you have a shot at redemption for winning this loser bracket match? You seem to have a lot of competition in this match, and they seem to be hungry to retain their shot in AW. Jody Madrox: Of course, they are more aware of what is at stake then me. I am more inclined to cost really hard in this match, and knowing how much I don’t like anyone in that ring, I am not afraid to take them out one by one. I know full well that I am not going to be sole survivor, it’s not like I am stressing myself out for this match. The fans know who will be the sole survivor, isn’t that right people?
Then the camera pans to crowds who are chanting and even cheering on JB and Jody, then back to them. Jody Madrox: The fans has spoken… I might be a loser, but at the end I’m a winner to these fans out here in Calgary!…. now, let me and JB take care of some business with these fans Jade, see you inside!
Then we see JB and Jody interacting with the crowd and signing autographs and taking pictures with them as it shifts back to the commentators at Match Madness.

Jonny Cedrone vs. TJ Alexander vs. Doc Holiday(c)
The opening guitar riffs of “Fight Fire with Fire” by Metallica plays over the PA system. A ghostly image is shown on a black background of a woman dressed in a colonial style dress riding on a white horse. At first the horse is riding slow, but once those opening guitar riffs finish, the music fades into “The Thing That Should Not Be” also by Metallica. With the opening riffs of “The Thing That Should Not Be” the horse comes to a complete stop. The woman looks confused. The music begins to really ramp up and the woman and horse are both drenched in blood which angers both. The horse goes on a full-on sprint with the woman sporting a fearful and enraged grimace as she keeps looking behind her every so often to figure out what happened. Back in the arena, there is only the spotlight pointing at the entranceway. When Papa Het begins singing fog starts rolling through the entranceway and engulfs the entire stage and rampway to the ring. When James Hetfield starts bellowing the chorus for the first time, Gloria comes walking through the curtains, much to the delight of the fans. But she doesn’t look to be in the same joyful mood that she’s usually in when she makes her appearance. After she walks through the curtains and surveys the audience, she steps to the side and waits for Jonny to make his arrival. After a few moments of tension building, a shadowy figure steps through the curtains wearing dark cargo pants and a black hoody with the hood completely covering his face. He stops at the top of the rampway and looks towards the ring. After a few moments, he slowly but intensely makes his way to the ring, never playing to the crowd once. He stops at the end of the rampway and allows Gloria to make her away in front of him. She climbs the stairs and walks the apron to where she’s standing in front of Jonny. She looks out over the crowd then down towards Jonny and with a motion of her hand, she commands him to make his way up the stairs. Following orders, Jonny slowly makes his way up the stairs and walks towards Gloria who’s now sitting on the middle rope to allow him to get into the ring. He makes his way into the ring and just stands in his corner, stoically, then Gloria makes her way into the ring and stands by her man, putting her arm on his shoulder. The music fades away and the fans still try to figure out what to think of this presentation. Jonny never takes off his hoody or anything. He just stands there waiting for the bell to ring to unleash his Hell. Billy: Jonny Cedrone came so close to winning the United States Championship in the Match Madness tournament, having a classic match with Doc Holiday, coming up just short. Chris Avery: No cap, Billy! Cedrone is looking to become a two-time US Champ tonight but he’ll need to be on his A game against the champion and his other challenger! Billy: I mean you’re right, I don't wear a cap. I wear a cowboy hat.
The Touch by Stan Bush plays and TJ Alexander walks out. Billy: TJ Alexander is all business tonight! Chris Avery: Alexander looking to win his first piece of gold here in ADub but will he be able to do it against two multitime champions?
The arena goes dark as the beat to "Got it on Me" by Pop Smoke interrupts the darkness "Look Have mercy on me, have mercy on my soul Don't let my heart turn cold Have mercy on me, have mercy on my soul Don't let my heart turn cold Have mercy on many men Many, many, many, many men Wish death 'pon me Yeah, I don't cry no mo' I don't look to the sky no mo' 'Cause I got it on me" A spotlight shines on Doc Holiday as he stands at the top of the entrance ramp, hood up on his black AW wrestling sweat shirt. His head slowly bobs to the music as he walks to the ring looking very focused on the task at hand. Fans reach out to touch him, he obliges and slap hands with a few of them as he walks to the ring stopping short of the ring apron, pausing for a moment before jumps straight onto the ring apron and slides the the middle rope, going to the center of the ring where he embraces the cheers from the crowd with a sly smirk and his arms out. Green pyro's go off behind him as he lifts his arms, shooting from left to right and then right to left. Billy: And here is our United States Champion! Doc had a lot of momentum up until two weeks ago when he was put on upset alert by the OMEGA champ, Jody Madrox! Chris Avery: Holiday needs to put that in the past because right now the champ is looking vulnerable. Doc needs to remind everyone here tonight why he’s one of the fastest rising stars in the business!
The referee takes the United States Championship from Doc and folds it before showing it to each competitor. He then holds it up for the crowd before handing the strap to the timekeeper. The bell is rung and all three competitors look back and forth at each other cautiously. Cedrone looks at TJ and gestures to Doc, who puts up his fists to square up. Alexander takes a step toward the champ but Cedrone runs in and takes out an off-guard TJ Alexander with a massive Clothesline from Hell! The crowd is shocked along with Doc Holiday. Billy: Shiftfire! Cedrone with the sneak attack! Chris Avery: I think he wants to settle the score with Doc from a few weeks ago!
Jonny boots TJ out of the ring to the floor and looks at Doc, saying “This is between you and me”. Doc nods and the two lock up, the larger Cedrone pushing Holiday into the corner. Holiday puts his hands up and ref starts to count before Cedrone lets go. Doc, not wanting to be shown up, comes out of the corner to lock up again but Cedrone scoops him up and slams him into the mat. Cedrone picks the champ up again and delivers a snap suplex to Holiday before floating over into a cover. ONE!
KICKOUT!!
Doc kicks out but Jonny doesn’t let up as he starts throwing punches down on Doc’s head. The ref yells at Cedrone for the closed fist. Jonny waves him off and pulls Holiday to his feet but the champion responds with knife-edged chops across the big chest of Cedrone before hitting him with a vicious European uppercut! Jonny stumbles back and Holiday grabs him, whipping Cedrone into the ropes. Cedrone rebounds but hits Doc with a huge shoulder block that knocks him down. Cedrone follows this up by dropping a huge elbow into the chest of the champion before locking Doc into a side headlock, wrenching on his neck. Billy: Cedrone using his size advantage to overpower Doc here in the early going. Chris Avery: Doc and TJ are both quicker than fast. Jonny needs to use his power advantage like he;s doing here.
Doc tries to fight out of the hold, pushing on Jonny’s face but Cedrone moves to one knee for more leverage on the hold. Out of nowhere, Cedrone gets nailed in the face by a shotgun dropkick from TJ Alexander! Cedrone flops back as Holiday rolls away to recover. Billy: Shitfire! TJ outta nowhere! Jonny might’ve swallowed some teeth! Chris Avery: Shotgun dropkick from Alexander! Getting his revenge!
Cedrone stumbles up to his feet but walks right into TJ who nails Cedrone with a step-up enziguri! Jonny falls back but bounces off the ropes back into Alexander’s arms who lifts up the “King of Sexy” and drops him down on his knees with an inverted atomic drop! Cedrone hunches over in pain before Alexander grips him in a front facelock and drops Jonny on his head with a DDT! Alexander goes for a pin! ONE!
TWO!!
KICKOUT!!!
Cedrone kicks out! Alexander pulls Cedrone up and looks to set him up for his Angel Wings but Holiday shows up and leaps high into the air, nailing TJ in the face with a picture-perfect dropkick!

LET'S HEAR FROM SICKO...
The scene switches to a dilapidated, tattered circus tent; The ghosts of the past haunt this place for sure, skeletal remnants of scaffolding and old tarps and ropes, and the canbas of the tent is eaten by time, showing large holes; But with an audible click of a different camera-lens sliding into place, a sepia filter takes over, and by magic, we are transported into a period where the tent was new; In the background, instead of piles of construction equipment and scaffolding, we see plastic slides, see-saws, and brightly colored stars'n'stripe balls. And a figure now bursts into first person, popping up from underneath the camera view, and chuckling wildly. "Sicko": HEY HEY, BOYS AND GORLS! IT'S YORE PAL! SICKO THE CLOWN!
Canned cheers and wild applause from an audience of children. The camera cuts to the stands, sepia-filter off; there are no children in those stands. Then back on the clown aspect's smiling face, beaming broadly into the camera. "Sicko": Now, boys and gorls, on tuhday's program, we're going to talk about phonies. You know what a phony is, boys and gorls? A phony is a liar. A phony is someone who talks big and bad one moment, but then, when the chance comes to back themselves up, they step down, and show their bellies rather than be the man they say they are. Isn't that awful, kids? Isn't that, well, not the type of person someone would cheer for? Someone who lies to you about being an upstanding citizen and someone to root for, because, most importantly, they're lyin' tuh themselves, yes they are! What do we say to people like that, huh?
The "children" in the stands boo, hiss, and catcall; Even knowing, as we do, that this is canned call-and-response and that we are hearing the voices of those long, long dead and gone, hearing their tinny, recorded voices hissing through the air is metallic, cold, and more than a little chilling. The clown aspect stands there, arms out, taking it all in. "Sicko" smiles, a trifle shady and surreptitiously, like someone with a secret. "Sicko": Now, he might not have clocked it, but the man who's the real phony in all of this is now going around, well, openin' his mouth about yore olllld pal Sicko, and I just wanna set the records straight here. Because the truth is, boys and gorls, Sicko the Clown DOES seem familiar, doesn't he? He seems like he's just stealing looks and presenting images of clowns you, or people like Jody Madrox've seen before. Madrox is goin' around already spouting off about how Sicko is a -
And here, the mask cracks, and the happy, upbeat, accented voice of the clown aspect cracks, revealing something bitter, and dark and as bleak as the abyss. "Sicko": Fake. How Sicko is a copy of a "Needles", about how Sicko is twistin' his metal around, already tradin' around a low-rent mind's trickle of middle school innuendos and puns about a fucking Playstation game. And maybe he'd have a point, maybe the outward aesthetic of the Avatar aspect seems familiar, seems like something you've seen before; Because Sicko was an identity presented to us, it was handed to us as something we had to make our own. But that's just it, "Sicko" at it's core is not like any fucking archetype your paltry mind can conjure up. And you can name them all. Sweet Tooth, Bozo, Twiztid. You can reel off a list of giants, of bullies, of freaks and of clowns that you believe Sicko is similar to, and you will never once be close to the mark, because all you've seen are the sides that have presented themselves to you. That isn't lying, or being a phony, or a copy, Jody Madrox. That's being more multi-faceted and layered than you've ever been in your soft, pathetic life!
The hollow, ringing voices of the dead children cry out from the stands with a "YAYYYY!" and the clown aspect presents itself, turning to stare wide-eyed into the camera, with a frightening intensity. "Sicko": But you, you fucking hack, in all of your rush to get out in front of your embarrassment from the beating the Avatar aspect laid on your fragile body and weak mind; In your haste to wash the humiliation of being left lying in a puddle of blood and melted chocolate eclair, you overstepped your bounds, because he didn't just choose you because you're an easy mark. The Avatar aspect chose you, because of what that title you hold symbolizes to us. The Omega Championship, by it's strictest definition, is the terminus, the ending. He, is the true omega here, not you. But I can sense you won't believe that. I can sense you'll cling to your title with undue pride until it's ripped from your corpse and he trods on your chest, holding that belt up in the air. And all the while, you'll be contentedly smirking, thinking that Sicko is something you've seen before. "Twisted Metal". "Needles". You'll compare him to Odin Balfore, to Jessie Lee, to Draugr, to any big man's name that floats to the top of that fetid pond you call a brainpan, and you'll think they are similar. They are not, fucking similar, Jody. You may not believe that now. You will in time. But to the lesson at hand today, presented by me, yore olllll' pal the clown aspect, Sicko! Who's the real deal, who's the real Omega, and who's faking themselves for your consumption? Well, let me see, boys and gorls, which one of the two of us was face-ta'-face with a hundred pound girl and said, "Gosh, she's too tough for me to beat so I won't even try!" Not I, says the alter! Heeheehehaha! NOT I!
Now the clown alter, the aspect, comes close into the camera, and even in the sepia filter, his eyes are dark, flinty chips of obsidian, looking deep into your soul. "Sicko": But when we really get down to it, presenting yourself for the consumption is what is to come for the rest of the AW Universe, so chin up, lil' buddy! You're not alone! One by one, the quailing, soft-hearted and fucking idiotic paper champions of Action Wrestling are going to be crumbled into toppings and served on a cone, for HIS consumption! You've all been getting by for too long with cheap talk, pointless back and forths on Internet boards, and hours long talks about BSDM! You need someone to strike actual fear into your hearts again, and you're all lined up at his truck!
"Sicko": But if you want something to snack on while you're waiting your turn, not to worry!
The grin, snaking out sinisterly, accentuated by the garish facepaint; The smile underneath is thin, unamused, sadistic.
"Sicko": He has a chocolate eclair bar waiting for you, too. You'll see what's real, and what isn't, soon enough.
He steps way, way back from the camera, and then, happily, jauntily, waves goodbye.
"Sicko": Until next time... TRY LAUGHIN' CLOWN ICE CREAM BARS, BOYS AND GORLS! HEEHEEHEAHAHAHAHA!!
The camera clicks again as if a lens is being taken off, and the sepia, old-timey filter is removed; As it does, the magic fades from the set, and it is back to being a torn, ragged, dilapidated tent again.
The clown aspect has disappeared.
But the camera cuts over to show the bleachers, and they remain empty of children.

Losers Bracket Match DRAUGR, Jody Madrox, Karlie Nash, Vespertine vs. Andre Jenson, Gerard Angelo, Jessie Lee, Niobe Martin
A group of cougars dressed a cowgirls steps on the stage and line dance to generic country music, the crowd doesn’t know whether to cheer or be disgusted by older ladies shaking their stuff, they move apart to reveal Karlie wearing cowgirl inspired wrestling gear in Edmonton Oilers colors, they ladies tip their hat as Karlie walks by them and makes her way to the ring, she walks around the ring, and removed her cowboy hat and gives it to a cougar in the front row then enters the ring. She climbs the ropes and flashes a loser sigh to the Calgary crowd then steps down and goes to her corner. Billy: Haven’t seen one of Karlie’s special entrances in a while. Chris Avery: This one was quite inventive though. Billy: So quick question Chris, how many of those Cougar cowgirls do you think Karlie is taking back to the hotel after the show. Chris: I don’t want to know.(The sound of a Japanese flute starts out playing quietly over the loudspeakers and the lights go down. The Tron comes up and we see two armies standing face to face on a battlefield. The flute continues playing and the camera on the Tron gets closer to the two armies. The camera cuts scene) (the camera cuts back to a scene of two armies. The Japanese flute plays louder. Both armies are huge and they are an army of shogun, ronin, and samurai. As the army walks forward a single figure comes into view and emerges from the line. The figure raises their sword and as one the entire army stops. The figure runs forward and gets atop a boulder to look out. The camera goes over their shoulder, and we see the other army standing as a wall in the distance. The figure/leader takes off their helmet and long black hair tumbles out from it and flows all around, sometimes waving and weaving in places where the wind catches it. The figure turns and looks at the army behind them and we see it is Vespertine. She raises her sword and roars in fury. Camera cuts scene and the Japanese flute stops) (camera cuts back to scene of her army raising their own swords and shouting in fury. The camera pans back quickly and she does the motion of with her sword and the camera goes up and we see her entire army run forward to join in the fray below. The song "Diamond Eyes" starts up and then goes straight into the song.) "Boom Lay boom lay boom. Boom lay, boom lay boom"
(Suddenly the spotlights in the arena come up and we see a lone figure standing at the top of the ramp. One arm is raised and we see it is Vespertine and she is standing facing the entrance curtains. She spins around rather quickly and at the end of the turn she points at the audience where upon a couple of pyros go off on each side of her. She stands at the top of the ramp looking around at the audience. Then suddenly she reaches her hands out to them and then quickly pulls back into a fist and fire pillar pyros go off behind her. She saunters on down to the ring, stepping in time to the music. She goes up the ring steps, goes to the middle of the apron, then uses the ropes to blackflip over them to inside the ring and does the splits upon coming down. She takes off her sunglasses and looks around at various spots within the audience. She crawls to the other side of the ring and then suddenly jumps up and spreads her arms out and lands in a V- like pattern where upon at each corner of the ring, showers of sparks come flying out. She looks around, still with the feral look in her eyes, and takes off her trenchcoat duster and gives it to a person outside the ring and goes to sit on the turnbuckle facing the ring entrance until the match starts) Ethan Miller: Coming down to the ring, previously from the Gates of Eternity, currently from San Francisco, Ca in her mortal form, she is THE Well Rounded Fighting Machine, VESPERTINEEE!!!!!! Billy: What a heckin’ entrance, pal!
As the beat drops on the entrance way, we see the lights go out in the area, and the Tron comes to life with “Da Geto Boy” on the screen. Then as the song plays, the lights come back on to see John Black and Jody coming out together in pair of jackets and bandanas on their faces, as they walk down they gives some of the people some dap all the way past the ramp, then Jody takes off the jacket and handed to JB and he slides into the ring, he goes to the corners to taunt to the crowd. Then after he takes off the bandana off his face and tosses it into the crowd, then he stands in the middle of the ring as his theme cuts off. Chris Avery: There's our Omega Champion Jody Madrox! He has been on a hot streak, and really presenting himself as a top guy here in Action Wrestling!The lights flicker throughout the arena before going to darkness, and "Become Immortal" by Kreator fills the void. Red light emits from the heavens and hell, as smoke fills the stage. The strongest of the strong, DRAUGR emerges slowly from the smoke and stops dead center on the stage. He turns his head toward the entrance, and out comes Lexi Sparkles. She walks to the side of the mighty DRAUGR and gives him a nod. He steadily walks down the ramp as she follows behind at a reasonable pace. Ethan Miller: Making his way to the ring at this time... being accompanied by Lexi Sparkles... weighing in at one hundred and twenty-five kilograms... he... is... DRAUGR!
The roar of emotions from the crowd are understandably split as DRAUGR approaches the ring. When he reaches the ring, he stands totally still until Lexi catches up to him. She places a hand on his shoulder and then points to the ring. DRAUGR vertical leaps to the ring apron, then effortlessly steps over the top rope. He calmly steps to the center, ready for the action to begin. Billy: Ol’ DRAUGR ain't been the same since he had a heart attack fightin’ Madrox for the Omega belt. Chris Avery: I don't know how he's gotten cleared for competition, but at least it's a tag team match.
As the opening of "Nightmare" by Avenged Sevenfold begins to play over the arena, a video flashes on the big screen of a camera shot panning up a grassy hill at night, slowly until it gets to the top. Panning from left to right, lighting flashing in the sky as the opening guitar riff begins to sound. Ethan Miller "Introducing to the ring from Anaheim, California, weighing in at one hundred twenty five pounds and standing five feet, seven inches tall! She is the Action Wrestling Television Champion… "Living Nightmare", NIOBE MMAARRTTIINN!!!"
The video on the screen then switches to a video package of Niobe in the ring, flashing and moving in time with the drum beat. "Nightmare! Now your nightmare comes to life.."
Niobe comes running out from behind the curtain, stopping at the top of the ramp briefly to extend her arms out to the sides as a blast of pyro goes off on either side of her. "Dragged you down below... Down to the devils show... To be his guest forever... Peace of mind is less than never.."
As the lyrics of the song continue to play, she drops her arms and walks down the ramp, a smirk on her face as she sneers at the crowd as she passes before sliding under the bottom rope of the ring. She stands up and throws off the hood of her jacket, glaring at the crowd with a smirk on her face. Billy: It's so cool that she finally won the TV Title. She worked dang hard to get where she's at.
A deep voice booms from the PA system "In the world of the fantasy land of Kem begot a new type of warrior, one which was created from the fires of the star Elume and forged in the great battles of the third age. A warrior so daring and so brave that King Dennis the maker himself would try to destroy him and fail. This man is more than man, he is legend" Big Blue Dress by Cranius begins to play as mist slowly rolls up the entrance ramp while Andre Jenson appears from behind the curtain. Andre looks around to the crowd with a huge smile, waving to both the left and right side of the ramp. He then beckons to the back and 4 other similarly clad LARPers emerge, flanking him. They look like a classic dungeon party. The big man, wearing full armour and holding a shield and sword takes position in front, while the tiny elf, dressed in green druid like clothing takes the rear, waving his staff in the air. The other two, a woman wielding a bow and a rather scary looking hairy beast wielding an axe take position either side of Jenson. Jenson makes some waving movements with his hands and shouts something to the ceiling and they all start moving forward, seemingly satisfied. When they get to the ring, AJ again makes some gestures and they stop, he shakes hands with each one of them, before pulling up the apron and grabbing a money pouch from under the ring. He gives each of the party a coin, and they take a defensive stance. He grins and then rolls under the bottom rope into the ring, while fishing out a couple of d20 dice and rolling them. He then nods as if acknowledging the results and shakes the referee's hand, forearm to forearm. After this, he climbs each of the middle turnbuckles in turn and looks like he casts a spell on each one of them with hand gestures and some reagents from his pouch. Chris Avery: We haven't seen much of Andre Jenson recently, but when he pops in… he's always entertaining the fans.
Without warning, the lights in the arena cut out and the live professional wrestling fandom was left in pure darkness. That is until the heavy drums of Ghostkid's SUPERNOVA began to reverberate throughout the arena; flashes of lights strobing along with the early beat of the song. This is a, this is a Beautiful, beautiful This is a, this is a Beautiful, beautiful
This is a, this is a Beautiful, beautiful This is a, this is a Beautiful day to DIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIE!
YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!
With Sebastian Biesler's guttural screams piercing throughout the arena the lighting turned back on to reveal the nearly six-foot muscular frame of Jessie Lee standing center stage. With her feet shoulder-width apart and arms hanging loosely at her sides, the Aussie directed a fierce scowl in the direction of the ring with her head slightly cocked to the side. After several moments of allowing the song to play out Jessie abruptly grabbed onto her leather vest, gave it a rough tug, and marched down the ramp with a deadly swagger in her step. Ethan Miller: Making her way to the ring from Perth, Western Australia.......she is...The Dommy Mommy of Action Wrestling.......The Bad Bitch......Jessie......LEEEEEEEEEE!
With the announcement of her name, the pugilist powerhouse continued her descent down the rampway until she reached the bottom. Taking a moment to check the tape wound around her wrists one last time, Jessie lurched forward in a sprint and leaped into the air as if she were vaulting over a hurdle. However, instead of a hurdle, Jessie cleared the end of the ring apron and skirted into the ring underneath the bottom rope. She then hopped to her feet and began pacing around the ring as the anticipation of the upcoming contest visibly appeared in the form of spontaneous shit-talking those around her; announcers, referees, opponents, and front-row fans were all fair game! Then, as SUPERNOVA faded away, Jessie tore the vest from her shoulders and chucked it to the outside. Billy: She's a baaaaaad biiiiiitch!!!!!
The arena’s lights go black, plunging the inside into darkness causing a nervous murmur to flush over the crowd. The ActionTron lights up suddenly, reflecting the night sky over water when stars start flying at the screen with the familiar orchestra music. They turn on the water and fly toward a familiar mountain with the sunrise behind it. The 21 stars form two-thirds of a circle over the mountain but instead of “Paramount”, the cursive font reads “Gerard Angelo” and the crowd fucking boos. “I CAN’T STOP!” The lights start to flash as “STOP” repeats repeatedly from different speakers in the arena as the beat builds and then drops. BOOM An explosion of gold fireworks goes off. “I CAN’T STOP!” The house lights come back on as the hook of “Who Gon Stop Me” rings out through the jam-packed arena as the crowd continues to boo. The lights come back on as Kanye West’s voice serenades the people as they give loud boos, Gerard Angelo is shown standing on stage, back to the crowd, the hood of his hoodie pulled up, right arm raised above his head at an angle, one finger extended. The All-In briefcase is grasped by the handle in his other hand. He throws his hood back with his right hand and spins around to the crowd as he extends one arm like he’s absorbing another wave of booing, the other holding the briefcase up, a cocky smirk etched across his face as he surveys the crowd behind his trademark sunglasses, He makes his way down to the ring slowly, brushing off fans and taunting them. Ethan Miller: From Hollywood, California, weighing in at 225 lbs, he is Misterrrr ALL-IN, the Living Legend, GERRRRRARD ANGELOOOOOOOOO!He stops at the ring stairs, slaps the top step before climbing them, and walks to the center of the ring apron. Gerard raises the All-In briefcase up to the crowd. Angelo surveys the arena again to another round of boos, and poses, pyro exploding from the four ring posts. Gerard slips through the middle and top rope into the ring. He walks to the opposite ring post before leaping onto the second turnbuckle, raising the briefcase again to the booing crowd. Gerry points to the crowd before unzipping his hoodie, which gets more than a few ladies in the audience to scream out, 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, sticking the briefcase in the corner. He removes his sunglasses, placing them on top of the briefcase neatly before he leans back against the turnbuckles, mouthing off to the fans as he starts to stretch. Chris Avery: We've got all eight competitors in the ring and– Billy: Sorry about that, folks. Those entrances took so long that Paramount+ made us cut to an ad for some bullshit show. Chris Avery: Hey now…He sighs. Chris Avery: You're right. DING DING DINGBoth teams charge into battle. Fists are flying. Everyone is gettin’ rocked. The referee does his best to stay out of harm's way. The action-packed action spills out of the ring as DRAUGR, Jody, Andre, and Gerard brawl out. This leaves Jessie, Niobe, Vespertine, and Karlie. Billy: Oh yes! It's ladies night and the feeling's right! Chris Avery: Oh, what a night!
Karlie and Vespertine work well together, as they rock Jessie and Niobe to opposite corners. They climb to the middle rope and start droppin’ heavy hands as the fans count along. ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR! FIVE! SIX! SEVEN! EIGHT! NINE! TEN!
Karlie and Vespertine step off the middle rope. They look back at each other and nod, before Northern Irish Whipping Jessie and Niobe into one another in the middle of the ring. They hit the mat with a sickening thud. Billy: Good to see ‘em on the same page tonight!
Karlie points to the brawl outside of the ring, and she has words with Vespertine. Vespertine nods and she climbs the ropes in the corner, before taking flight with a– Billy: SHITFIRRRRE!!!Chris Avery: SIX FIFTY SPLASH!! Billy: EVERYBODY IS DOWN!!
Chris Avery: VESPERTINE MIGHT BE HURT!!
Karlie is alone in the ring, and now stalking as Niobe and Jessie get to their feet. They surround Karlie, who is ready to take ‘em both on. Karlie throws the first punch, clocking Jessie right on the chin. She turns and blocks a punch from Niobe, and then lights her up. She goes to whip Niobe to the ropes, but Niobe reverses. When Karlie gets to the ropes, she holds on to stop the momentum. Chris Avery: Veteran instincts by Karlie Nash!
Niobe charges at Karlie and she takes flight, crashing into Karlie with a crossbody that sends both combatants tumbling between the ropes and to the floor outside of the ring. Billy: AND NOW JESSIE LEE'S THE LAST PERSON STANDING! Chris Avery: BUT NOT FOR LONG!
The mighty DRAUGR is back in, and he clobbers Jessie from behind. He turns her around and scoop lifts her into an over the shoulder belly-to-belly piledriver. Billy: EISPICKEL PILEDRIVER!!!
He lets out a mighty roar, and Andre surprises him with a devastating superkick. Chris Avery: CRITICAL HIT!!!
DRAUGR drops to his knees. Andre nails him with v-trigger knees. Billy: PRESTIGITATION!!!Jody comes from behind and he scoops Andre up on his shoulders, and plants him with an electric chair driver. Chris Avery: JUST TO GET A REP!!!
Jody gets up and pumps up the crowd, but Niobe clocks him with a spinning enziguri. Billy: TRUE NIGHTMARE!!!
She points to the nearest corner and the fans pop. She climbs the ropes in the corner. Before she can go all the way, Gerard clocks her with an uppercut. She is now seated on the top rope, and he nails her with a springboard spanish fly. Chris Avery: FALLING STAR!!!
As Gerard goes for the cover, there's Karlie with a brutal knee trembler. Billy: TWO MINUTES FOR KNEEING!!!
He hits the mat and she locks in a regal stretch. Chris Avery: NASH-URAL SELECTION!!!
Gerard struggles to reach the ropes. As the referee checks on him, Jessie makes the save by booting Karlie in the head. Karlie releases the hold and she crawls to the corner. As she pulls herself up, Jessie charges and– Billy: FATALI– NOOO!!! KARLIE ROLLS UNDER IT!!! SHE TURNS AROUND AND–Chris Avery: THERE'S THE BOOM!!!
The super(wo)man punch rocks Karlie to the ropes, and the momentum sends her back Jessie's way. Jessie pulls her into a double underhook, that she spins into a facebuster Billy: LEETHALITYYYYY!!! Chris Avery: THERE'S THE COVER!!! ONE!
TWO!!
VESPERTINE SLIDES INTO THE RING!!!
THR–
VESPERTINE DIVES TO BREAK IT UP!!!
EEEEEEEEE!!!!!DING DING DINGBilly: WHAT THE HELL?!! DID SHE MAKE IT IN TIME?!!?! Chris Avery: DOESN'T LOOK LIKE IT!!!
The referee gets to his feet, wiping the sweat from his brow. Vespertine gets to her feet and she verbally accosts the man for doing his job. Billy: He's standing by his count!!! Ethan Miller: The winners of the Losers Bracket Match… NIOBE MARTIN, ANDRE JENSON, GERARD ANGELO, AND JESSIE LEE!!!
By now, her partners have found their way back into the ring. They raise their arms in victory, and give each other a nod. Gerard exits the ring, holding up his All-In briefcase, and motions that it was all on him, as on the outside of the ring, DRAUGR and Lexi Sparkles are collecting themselves. Jessie Lee sourly looks on at Gerard, who is bragging arrogantly. Meanwhile, Karlie and Vespy are bickering, and Karlie gives Vespy a big shove, as if she let her team down. Karlie starts to walk away. As soon as Karlie is exiting the ring, starting to walk up the ramp, the lights begin to flicker and brown out as if in a rolling blackout, and the Tron screen bursts into an ugly squeal of static. The Tron screen turns into one, single image of a nightmarishly large eyeball, rolling around madly, between bursts of static and squeals of distorted audio, and the sounds coming over the PA are the canned laughter and cheers of an audience of a long-ago children's program. Karlie is stopped in her tracks, staring at the eyeball, it's iris flitting around in multiple directions jerkily, before the lights come back up and Sicko's ice cream truck is sitting by the entrance! The engine revs!! Chris Avery: NO! Billy: When you hear that truck's jingle, you want to run away from it, rather than towards!
In the ring, Vespertine turns around only to be absolutely decimated by a running shoulder block from an advancing giant clown, Sicko hits the ring and plows into Vespertine with such breakneck force that the much smaller Diva is flown halfway across the ring. The Demon Clown "aspect" stands in the ring, holding his arms up, a massive hulk with gigantic arms and a belly straining against a heavy leather harness. Jody Madrox stares at him, and Sicko snarls and rolls his neck aggressively. Madrox, for his own part, does not back down, and he starts to come towards Sicko, wanting payback for his humiliating assault last week. He feeds in to Sicko, coming forward and nailing the Demon Clown "aspect" with right hands so stiff that it's heartbreaking that they do nothing more than snap Sicko's head to the side. Sicko's head swivels right back to center like a Terminator, and he stares at Madrox, glaring through the eye holes in his vintage Halloween mask. Sicko's hand shoots out and he grabs Madrox around the throat for a chokeslam, and snarls, turning his head to bark and shout a side conversation with a voice only he can hear, but he holds Madrox firmly in the grasp for the chokeslam. Sicko turns his attention back to Madrox, holding on to him and starting to lift him for a thunderous chokeslam, but suddenly, Sicko is blasted across the broad back and shoulders by a chair shot. Sicko straightens up, and turns to see Karlie Nash wielding the chair that smacked him across the back. Chris Avery: Oh no, I think Karlie believed that Sicko has been behind those Buddhist messages that have been appearing during her matches as of late and wanted to take Sicko on! Billy: I think this was a tactical error, Sicko ate that steel chair shot like it was nothing!
Karlie, intimidated by the size of the monster rising up before her, backs up a step, but nonetheless takes the chair in both hands, intending to hit Sicko with it again. However, as she raises the chair up, Sicko's huge arm pistons out, striking the chair full force, and PUNCHING it out of Karlie's hand with such force that it's hucked into the front row! Karlie looks panicked, but now Sicko's eyes are wide behind his mask with fervor and he lays in stiff shots to Karlie, kicking her in the ribs to double her over and tattooing her with club to the back after club to the back, dropping her to her knees! Sicko viciously lifts Karlie up, underhooks the arms, and twists her around in the air to drive her head first into the mat with a package piledriver! Karlie is laid out! Chris Avery: Sicko is unleashing on anything that moves now!
Sicko stands up with an audible grimace and he looks around for Madrox, who is being helped out of the ring by John Black, even though Madrox is doggedly insisting Black let him go. Sicko steps forward, menacingly. Now Sicko turns his head, seeing Vespertine starting to climb to all fours dazedly, as if still trying to clock the number of the truck that hit her, and Sicko violently stands over her, yelling and roaring incoherently, and he smashes Vespertine over the back with some wicked clubs and shots to the unprotected temple. Sicko jerks the much smaller Vespertine to her feet, lifting her in the air in a vertical suplex hold and then smashing her into the mat with a jackhammer of such force that the camera jostles. Sicko sits up off of Vespertine, and stares daggers at Jody Madrox. Then, Sicko runs a thumb across his throat, pointing at Madrox, who stares defiantly at him from the outside. Chris Avery: Sicko sent a message tonight, he laid waste to Karlie and Vespertine, but he is stalking Madrox and the Omega Championship!
Sicko stands to his feet over the fallen Vespertine, holding his arms up and roaring belligerently. Madrox says that Sicko isn't going to get in his head, swearing it and giving the clown some choice words.

LET'S HEAR FROM... BRUCE HART?! Chris Avery: Let’s go to Jade Riley, who’s with Action Wrestling’s newest signee. Jade Riley: Thanks, Chris. Here with me right now is All Beef Patty, who just signed her Action Wrestling contract this week. Welcome, Patty! All Beef Patty: Thanks, darlin’! I am so excited to be here in the Action Rasslin’! For all y’all who don’t know me, my name is All Beef Patty, and I am All American, All Woman, and All Beef! I been rasslin’ since…
A voice is heard off-camera yelling “Hey, Fatso!” The camera pans right and we see the offender. The crowd boos. Jade Riley: Bruce Hart?
Bruce steps up to Jade and Patty. Jade Riley: What are you doing here? Bruce Hart: Action Wrestling is here in Calgary, the home of the greatest wrestling family in the world, The Hart Family! Jade Riley: Yes, that’s true, but that doesn’t answer my question. Bruce Hart: I’m here because I want to be here, Sweetheart! Action Wrestling didn’t see fit to invite any of the Harts backstage, or honor us in some kind of ceremony, or even book us for some special attraction match! Jade Riley: Actually, I think they reached out to your brother Bret but he already had a previous commitment. Bruce Hart: Are you kidding me?! They invited Bret but they didn’t invite me, the brains and talent behind Stampede Wrestling?!
The crowd boos that dubious claim. Bruce Hart: And on top of that, they put this fat thing on TV!
He points to Patty. Jade Riley: Hey, that’s… All Beef Patty: That’s all right, honey. I’ve been called worse things.
She looks at Bruce. All Beef Patty: Mr. Hart, it's a pleasure to meet a man such as yourself, but what’s your issue with me? Bruce Hart: Well, besides the fact that you’re a disgusting slob who doesn’t belong in my city, let alone a wrestling ring, you come out here talking about how you’re All American. You’re in Canada, you idiot! Nobody cares if you’re All American! All Beef Patty: Well, I’m sorry, Mr. Hart. I didn’t mean to offend you. I’m just so darn proud of my country no matter where I am! But let me tell you, sir, this is my first time outside the United States, and I must say, ya’ll got a beautiful country up here! And from what I understand, ya’ll got a lotta good cattle ranches around here. That’s a lotta beef comin’ from this here part of Canada. And as far as your concern about me not belongin’ in a rasslin’ ring, I can tell you, sir, I am more than qualified to lace up a pair of boots and get in the squared circle. Bruce Hart: Oh yeah? Prove it! You and me, tonight, in the ring. We’ll see if you belong or not. All Beef Patty: Hot damn! I wasn’t expectin’ to be rasslin’ my first match tonight but I’m down! Bruce Hart: I wouldn’t be so eager if I were you. I was trained by my father, the legendary Stu Hart, down in his dungeon. There are a lot of men who couldn’t take being stretched by my father, and I doubt you would have lasted one minute in our basement. All Beef Patty: Then I’ll take this as an opportunity to learn from one of the best- or at least someone who was trained by one of the best.
She puts out her hand. Bruce looks incredulous. Bruce Hart: I’ll see you in the ring, Porky.
He walks off-camera. Jade Riley: Well, there you have it. An impromptu match taking place tonight at Match Madness between Bruce Hart and All Beef Patty. All Beef Patty: Hey, you think after the match I can give him something for Bret to sign? Jade Riley: I don’t think he's going to want to do that.

Hell in a Cell TLC Match The Elite vs. The New Brotherhood(c)
Pyro blasts off as Limp Bizkit's Douchebag hits and X-Rated comes out hopping up and down telling the crowd to suck his you know what as he's moving his hands up and down towards his crotch. Trent Hunter comes out following right behind him with his arms out wide with a black duster jacket and he takes the hood off as they stand on the top of the ramp and pyro blasts off once more behind them! The Elite come down the ramp pointing at fans and laughing at them as X-Rated stops and hits on a MILF but then backs away at her disgusting teeth and meth looking face. X-Rated runs and passes Hunter and slides into the ring as Trent climbs up the steps and into the ring. They both stand in the ring and taunt together as more pyro blasts off the ring posts. X-Rated gives the universal sign for getting that slop top as Hunter just laughs at the disgusting fans as they go into a corner. The ring has 2 ladders in the center of the ring. Tables leaning on each corner, and chairs set up in a seating arrangement on the outside of the ring. The Elite walk around surveying the toys at their disposal as they await their opponents. Golden letters N and B hover over each other and separate to read NEW BROTHERHOOD as the deep driving guitar riff of “Cold” by Static X blasts through the arena and the entrance ramp fills with smoke as the silhouette of a man with his arms spread appears through the mist. Kevin Bishop steps forward still with his arms wide and the AW Tag Team Championship belt around his waist. Cipher shows up behind him with his title raised with both hands over their heads. “WE KISS…THE STARS… WE WRITHE… WE ARE!!!!”
Bishop and Cipher make their way down the entrance ramp accepting the stretched out arms of the fans. As they get to the ring Bishop deftly hops onto the apron and spreads his arms out again as Cipher raises his belt in the air and both titles appear to sit atop one another before Cipher rolls into the ring with his partner. Ethan Miller: The following Match is scheduled for 1 fall and is for the ACTION WRESTLING TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHOP! The match will allow the weapons of Tables, Ladders and Chairs and after the introductions this tremendous cell will be dropped on top of the ring keeping the competitors in and everyone else out. The only way to win the match is via pinfall or submission. Introducing first… At a combined weight of 300 plus pounds, from Las Vegas, Nevada they are known as the greatest tag team of all time, X-RATED AND TRENT HUNTER! THE ELLLITTEEE!! And their opponents, the Action Wrestling Tag Team Champions… CIPHER… KEVIN BISHOP…THE NEW BROTHERHOOD!!!!
Ethan Miller leaves the ring and the cell begins to drop. Chris Avery: 2 months have gone by since the Elite joined Action wrestling. They have been a thorn in the side of the New Brotherhood. None of the matchups that they’ve had either in tag form or singles have ended with a clear cut winner. In an effort to rectify the top brass have decided to trap both teams inside of a cell… Billy: And for shits and giggles we’ve thrown in Tables, Ladders and Chairs. As you can see the cell is about 10 feet higher than normal so X Rated and Cipher can do some cool shit off the top of the ladders.
The cell is locked into place by officials as all four men stare at each other intently in the ring. DING DING DING
The bell rings and the match begins. Cipher and X Rated lunge towards each other and knock each other to the outside part of the ring and start being each other with chair. Meanwhile inside the ring Bishop and Trent deliver haymakers to one another creating a cacophony of violence within the cell. After some back and forth, Trent tosses Bishop into the corner and his back smashes against a table. Trent unfolds a ladder and points it feet side towards bishop and rams him in the stomach with it crushing him between the ladder and the table. He wedges the ladder around the table in between the turnbuckles and turns around. Unbeknownst to him Cipher, with Chair in hand has climbed halfway up the ladder behind him. As Trent Turns around, Cipher tosses him the chair. Trent catches it then catches two feet to the grill as Cipher dives off with a flat back dropkick sending him hard onto the ladder. Cipher gets to his feet and climbs the ladder again this time all the way to the top. He measures his opponent and disregarding his safety he delivers a senton bomb onto Trent on top of the ladder. He writhes on the ground before going for the pin. ONE!
TWO!!
NOOO!!!Before the three count X Rated delivers a dropkick off the ladder to Bishop, crushing the table behind him, and also delivering an elbow drop to Cipher breaking up the pinfall. All 4 men lay in the ring jockeying for position and X Rated puts an arm over Bishop. ONE!
TWO!!
KICKOUT!!!Chris Avery: What bedlam.. what carnage!!!
A moment goes by and all four men get to their feet. A symphony of destruction involving chairs and the destroyed ladder leads to Bishop being tossed out of the ring and leaving Cipher alone with both members of the Elite who take advantage of the upper hand. They deliver double team moves rendering Cipher motionless as they strategically move a table next to the standing ladder. Hunter lifts Cipher onto his shoulders as X Rated climbs to the top of the ladder. Billy: AN EXTREME BLOCKBUSTAH!!! That’s gotta be it!!! ONE!
TWO!!
NOOO!!!
BISHOP BREAKS UP THE PIN!!!With a chair shot to X Rated Bishop breaks up the pin at the last second. Trent gets to his feet only to be met with a chair shot of his own. Eventually Cipher gets to his feet and they isolate X Rated. Kevin Bishop Irish whips X into the ropes. As he comes back, Cipher delivers a drop toehold, tripping them. While the X Rated is falling forward, Kevin hits them with a devastating superkick. They then focus their attention onto Trent. Bishop starts playing the role of ring general and tells Cipher to climb the ladder. As he gets to the top Kevin Bishop whips Hunter into the ropes and signals to Cipher. As the opponent rebounds, Bishop delivers a powerful spinebuster. While the opponent is down, Cipher follows up with a diving elbow drop, crushing their chest. One more time Bishop points up and Cipher looks all the way up to the ceiling. And he starts ascending the ladder. Chris Avery: The New Brotherhood have blood on their hands, and violence in their hearts. Look as Cipher climbs to the ladder another time. Billy: Bishop is moving the remaining tables into the middle of the ring. What’s he doing?
Bishop lays Trent Hunter atop a table, and then places the next table standing on top of it. He presses X Rated over his head and places him on the top table. Chris Avery: Cipher’s Still going up!!!
Cipher gets to the top of the ladder and looks down at his opponents. Then he looks up. He reaches up and puts his fingers through the fence above him. He kicks the ladder out from underneath. He monkey bars over the table set up. Billy: He must be 25 feet in the air!
Cipher starts swinging back and forth, forwards and backwards before gaining enough momentum to do a full moonsault landing on top of X Rated crushing the table underneath and then crushing the table on Trent leaving a wreckage in the center of the ring. Bishop rolls X Rated off the pile and hooks the leg and goes for the pin. ONE!
TWO!!
THR--
EEEEE!!!DING DING DING Ethan Miller: The winners of this match and STILL ACTION WRESTLING TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS…. THE NEW BROTHERHOOD!!!!
“Cold” by Static X plays and Bishop helps Cipher get to his feet. Billy: The cell is being raised as well as the arms of the reigning Action Wrestling Tag Team Champions. Chris Avery: Say what you want about how they’ve made their mark, but they continue to do so by being the most dominant tag team in recent memory. Since XIII they have faced all comers and have come out victorious.
As the Cell is raised the lights go out. The crowd cheers and when they come back on Cipher and Bishop have vanished. Billy: Classic New Brotherhood antics.
Chris Avery: What a match. What a title run. Lets move on to the next part of this historic night.

BRUCE HART VS. ALL BEEF PATTY
Ethan Miller: This contest is scheduled for one fall!
“Leader of the Pack” by The Shangri-Las plays. Bruce Hart comes out in a blue and black singlet and shades. He stands at the top of the aisle and waves the Canadian flag. Ethan Miller: Introducing first, from Calgary, Alberta, weighing in at 212 pounds, he is the crown jewel of the Hart Family and a Canadian National Hero, Bruce Hart!
BOOOO!!!!
Bruce stops in the aisle and looks at the crowd in disbelief as they shower jeers upon him. Chris Avery: Well, it’s safe to say that Bruce Hart is hated as much in his home country as he is everywhere else in the world. Billy: I also think he wrote his own ring introduction.
Bruce stands in the middle of the ring waving the flag, but the fans throw garbage at him. Chris Avery: You know what this is all about? He showed up here at Match Madness to get some attention and he decided to pick a fight with a rookie like All Beef Patty to do it. This guy is a real jerk if you ask me.
He goes to give his shades to a little girl in the front row, but she throws them back at him. Billy: Man, this is brutal. Chris Avery: But he deserves it.
All Beef Patty comes running into the arena while "Redneck Woman" by Gretchen Wilson blasts through the speakers. She trots to both sides of the stage and waves to the fans before coming to the center and raising her arms in the air ala Kurt Angle. Red, white, and blue confetti shoot out from confetti cannons behind her. She jogs down the aisle, slapping the hands of the fans. Ethan Miller: From Memphis, Tennessee, weighing in at 260 pounds, "The Quarter Pounder" All Beef Patty!
The crowd roars. Chris Avery: Can you believe the reception All Beef Patty is getting in her debut match?! Billy: I wonder how much of this has to do with the fans liking Patty and how much it has to do with the fans hating Bruce! Chris Avery: Well, whatever's causing this thunderous ovation, let’s let her soak it all in! You only debut in Action Wrestling once!
After she rolls into the ring, Patty stands on the second rope in each corner, waving to the crowd and blowing kisses. She ends her entrance by standing in the middle of the ring, flexing her muscles with a big smile on her face. Chris Avery: Welcome to the big time, Patty! DING DING DING
Bruce is incensed at the cruel irony playing out in front of a worldwide audience. He comes up from behind Patty, traps her in a waistlock, and tries to lift. Billy: Yeah, that ain’t gonna work, Bruce.
Patty looks confused for a second. Then, she reverses, lifts Bruce, and slams him face first with a wheelbarrow facebuster. The music ends and the referee signals for the bell. Chris Avery: This match has officially begun! Patty sends Bruce into the corner! Corner body avalanche!
Bruce stumbles out of the corner. Patty sets him up for a powerbomb and lifts. Chris Avery: Boom! She calls that The Quarter Pounder!
Patty comes off the ropes, runs to the other side of the ring, comes off the opposite ropes, and lands on Bruce with a seated senton splash. Chris Avery: THE WHOPPER! ONE!
TWO!!
THREE!!!DING DING DING Ethan Miller: The winner of this contest, All Beef Patty!
“Redneck Woman” plays as the referee raises Patty’s hand in the air. Billy: I think we can call that a literal squash match! Chris Avery: You’re absolutely correct! Bruce Hart picked a fight and All Beef Patty finished it- quickly! Billy: Wait a minute. Are these people cheering what I think they’re cheering?
USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! Chris Avery: Wow! Patty showed respect to Canada earlier tonight and now the fans are reciprocating by showing respect, not just to Patty but the US, too! With diplomacy like this, I think President Biden needs to make Patty the new Secretary of State! Billy: Chris, women are more than just secretaries these days. Chris Avery: No, that’s not what that means, Billy.
All Beef Patty walks up the aisle, waving to the crowd and blowing kisses while EMTs tend to Bruce in the ring. They realize quickly that it's Bruce Hart and not Bret. They leave without taking him with them.

Match Madness Tournament Finals #1 Contender to World Heavyweight Championship @ April Fools Gold Odin Balfore vs. Tatiana Jolee Ethan Miller: The following contest is scheduled for one fall and is the finals of Match Madness.
The guitar opening of “Plowed” by Sponge begins to bellow out over the P.A system bringing the attention to the stage as the lights strobe as if in sync with the tempo of the song. Will I wake up, some dream I made up No, I guess it's reality What will change us, or will we mess up Our only chance to connect with a dream
-KA-BOOM!- The fireworks explode off the top of the tron bringing the end to the strobes as a spotlight illuminates the figure of Tatiana Jolee standing there. Dressed in her blackout ring attire with matching boots and pads - her hair is pulled up in a bun and she has a black leather jacket with the Canadian flag on the back. Will I wake up, some dream I made up No, I guess it's reality What will change us, or will we mess up Our only chance to connect with a dream
Say a prayer for me (Say a prayer for me) Say a prayer for me
Say a prayer for me (Say a prayer for me) I'm buried by the sound
Of a world of human wreckage In a world of human wreckage In a world of human wreckage
Where I'm lost and I'm found, and I can't touch the ground I'm plowed into the sound Ethan Miller: “Making her way to the ring, from Vancouver, British Columbia… TATIANA JOOOOOLEEEE!”
To see wide open with a head that's broken Hang a life on some tragedy Plow me under the ground that covers The message that is the seed
After giving out a few high-fives and taking a couple of selfies with her fans along the ramp, TJ walks up the ring steps, gliding across the apron before entering the ring through the middle ropes. She gives the hard camera a smirk and a little wink while removing her jacket before settling into the corner to await the start of her match. Ethan Miller: And her opponent from Houston, Texas he is The All Father Odin Balfour.
“ With Odin On Our Side” Hit’s the PA system. The arena grows dark as the fans get to their feet to catch a glimpse of the stage. The fans stand and cheer an once the vocals starts, the arena lights flash back on and there stands Odin Balfore, centre stage. Odin stares down at the ring with a sinister grin as the fans sing along with the chorus. Futile to resist! You know why we have come! Futile to resist... the battle is.. already won!
Futile to resist! You know why we have come! Futile to resist... the battle is.. already won!
The fans pop insanely right after as Odin begins to walk down the ramp at a slow and methodical pace. Once he gets to the foot of the ring, he steps up on it and looks around the arena again before stepping over the ropes.. Futile to resist! You know why we have come! Futile to resist...
Odin cuts off the fans as he raises his hand in triumph. Odin turns back to the ring as the fans finish their part. The battle is.. already won!
Odin stares down his opponent as he waits for the match to get underway. Billy: And here we are the Match Madness tournament finals, two former action wrestling world champions battling to see who is headed to April Fools Gold to challenge either Jaice Wilds or Teo Blaze for the world title. DING DING DING
The two former world champions locked up with Odin gaining the advantage, locking in a side headlock and wrenching the head and neck of Tatiana. Odin would whip Tatiana off the ropes and send her crashing to the mat and a back body drop. Odin steps over Tatiana and leans over the ropes. Odin scoops Tatiana and slams her hard to the mat, Tatiana winces, Odin drops his knee on Tatiana's chest and covers. ONE!
KICKOUT!!Billy: Odin and Tatiana battled through several rounds to get to this match here tonight. Chris Avery: Yeah two veterans of the sport fighting for one spot at April Fools Gold.

Odin muscled Tatiana up and whipped her off the ropes, she ducked Odin’s big boot and rebounds and catches the all father with a cut block, dropping Odin to one knee Tatiana unleashed a series of measured punches to the head of Odin, Tatiana powered Odin down with a DDT and delivered a pointed elbow drop from the corner and covered. ONE! KICKOUT!!
Tatiana bell clapped Odin and locked in a sleeper hold, pulling the all father down to the mat and locking in a body scissors. Billy: This is smart here Tatiana is showing her technical prowess here. Chris Avery: Indeed, Tatiana has to wear down Odin.
Tatiana locked the sleeper in tight Odin struggles to maneuver his foot into the ropes forcing the break. Tatiana headbutts Odin in the abdomen then stomps the knees of Odin. Tatiana locked in a single leg Boston crab and wrenched the leg. The ref asks Odin if he wanted to submit, Odin power himself towards the ropes, Tatiana attempted to stop him by repeatedly slamming his knee to the mat and locking the Single leg crab again, again the ref ask Odin if he want to submit he says no and manages to get to the ropes forcing the break. Billy: The veteran All Father got himself to the ropes, maybe in the nick of time.
Odin pulled himself up, Tatiana charged, Odin instinctively put his boot up and Tatiana ran into it. Billy: This is a big match for Tatiana and Odin both want to be world champion again and the loser here tonight heads to the back of the line. Chris Avery: No Doubt.
Odin covered Tatiana. ONE!

Billy: Tatiana going for the win here, could she be on the verge of punching her ticket to April Fools Gold. Chris Avery: THERE'S THE COVER!!! ONE!
TWO!!
THR---ODIN THROWS HIS SHOULDER UP JUST IN TIME!!! Billy: THAT WAS TOO DAMN CLOSE!!!
Tatiana rolls off of Odin, exhausted and frustrated. She gets to her feet and looks to the corner. With a sigh, she goes to the corner and slowly climbs the ropes, while facing Odin in the ring. Chris Avery: Where is she going?! She is NOT a highflier! Billy: Desperate times, pal!Odin is slowly getting to his feet as Tatiana warily stands on the top rope. As he staggers toward her, she takes a leap of faith, clutching the back of his neck with her clasped hands and dragging him down with-- Billy: SUPER DOUBLE CLU-- Chris Avery: NOOO!!! ODIN BRACED HIMSELF BEFORE IMPACT AND HE SLAMMED HER DOWN ONTO THE MAT!!! Billy: PERT NEAR INTO THE DANG MAT, PAL!!!
He rolls Tatiana over and drags her to her knees, then uses both hands to pry apart her jaw. Chris Avery: OHMYGOD!!! Billy: THOSE VIOLENT HANDS!!! Chris Avery: THIS COULD BE IT!!! THIS MATCH COULD BE-- ~TAP TAP TAP~DING DING DING Billy: SHITFIRRRRE!!! ODIN WINS!!!Chris Avery: Odin Balfore just won Match Madness!!! Billy: And I just won $900!!!Odin stands proudly in the center of the ring and he makes a title belt motion by his waist.

Main EventJaice Wilds vs. Teo Blaze(c) Ethan Miller: The following is your MAIN EVENT, and it is for the ACTION WRESTLING WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP!! Chris Avery: It has all been leading up to this, Billy! Billy: This is what Match Madness Szn is all about baybeeee! And after such a shocking result (dramatic pause) Who will meet [Redacted] in the main event at April Fools Gold?? Who will walk away from one of the most controversial AW main events as THE World Champion? Chris Avery: I'm- I'm sorry, it's just, how did you do that with your mouth? Ethan Miller: Introducing first!
The opening chords of “UltraNUMB” by Blu Stahli fills the arena as the lights go dark. Several flashes of blue and green lights illuminate various parts of the arena and entrance ramp to the beat of the song, all stopping with a cascade falling at the top center as Blue Stahli screams… YOU WANT IT ALL RIGHT NOW!!!
At this point, the fans begin roaring as Jaice Wilds is spotted on a platform a few feet above the ramp. He raises his arms into an X, taking a moment to watch the crowd respond in kind before… 3! 2! 1! Wilds flips forward off the platform, landing superhero style on the ramp below. He looks up, removing the hood from his face and tossing his shades into the crowd. He starts down the ramp, taking some time to slap random fives and bump fists. You want it full frontal, over-stimulation So say a benediction, For a new addiction In voyeuristic overdrive (Here comes the countdown) Ethan Miller: Ladies and gentlemen, making his way to the ring!!
(Three) This is the new flesh Ethan Miller: From Puerto Vehlo, Brazil; weighing in at one hundred and eighty-four pounds!
(Two) This is the open door Ethan Miller: He is the Final General and YOUR Xtreme Aerialist!!
(One) We've got everything you wanted… Ethan Miller: He is JAICE! WIIIIIIIILLLLLLDSSSS!!!
Wilds stops at the bottom of the ramp, taking in a deep breath and signing the rosarie before launching forward, corkscrewing himself to fly between the top and middle ring ropes and rolling to his feet once inside the ring. He looks to each side of the ring, the fans on their feet as he heads for a turnbuckle. You want it all right now (ULTRAnumb) Right now (Three, two, one)
Violated, So degraded The show has just begun (Three, two, one)
Dominated, By all you hated This will make you ULTRAnumb (Three, two, one) Wilds nods to the crowd, throwing up the X as the fans chant "X-Treme!" to their hero. He drops to the mat, running up to each remaining turnbuckle and repeating the taunt as the crowd continues to roar in approval. Chris Avery: There are some who have said that this man is one of the most polarizing individuals in Action Wrestling. There are some who can't believe he was ever given the opportunity. But like it or not, Jaice Wilds DID call his shot in January of this year, and say he wanted to step up to the World Title. He DID earn his way with a number of victories, including over the dominant Roman Gunn, and he has been putting in the work to be highly visible every week on the shows. Billy: Yeah!, and to those people who're complaining about Jaice Wilds being in the main event of an AW PPV, I say, fully representing Action Wrestling, Paramount Plus and CBS, that you can suck our balls! You stupid, weak, white... white-guilt. Milquetoast. Pieces of human garbage! You can - Chris Avery (Overriding Billy): Billy does not speak for CBS, Action Wrestling or any of it's management or fellow employees. Ethan Miller: AND HIS OPPONENT...
The lights begin flashing wildly, alternating between plain white light and dark red shades, as a haunting, almost sinister sound fills the arena. Suddenly, a roaring guitar riff echoes throughout the arena as a crash of static appears on the screens, followed by a message: Technical Difficulties
Please do not Adjust your Set.
Then, without warning, the static is consumed by a smiling, dark red face as the ramp lights up with a burst of flame! The instant the flames fade, standing in the center, as though the flames themselves had summoned him, is Teo Blaze. He wears a bright red and gold mask over his face, matching the face that appeared on the tron moments ago. He turns towards the ring, his head hanging slightly to one side limply, even unnaturally, then slowly, he reaches up, and with his left hand...he removes the mask to reveal his face, an expression of wild abandon etched across it, a crooked smile showing a row of bright teeth. With a sinister laugh, he begins walking purposefully towards the ring, his eyes wild with anticipation- yet there is a determined swagger in his step, and as he walks up the stairs to the ring, he holds out the mask in front of him with one hand, the smile on his face matching the mask's smile perfectly. Finally, he steps into the ring, stretching loosely and preparing for the match. Ethan Miller: From Houston, Texas, weighing in at 195 lbs... he is the AW WORLD CHAMPION... TEO BLAZE!!! Chris Avery: After so long fighting for the honor of Cruiserclash. After a fall season where he fought through numerous close calls, challenged for the All-In Briefcase, and took part in a six-man Hell In A Cell for the World Championship, and falling short time after time... last month, at Payback, Teo Blaze shocked the world when he pinned Gerard Angelo! He climbed the mountain, and FINALLY transitioned from one of the greatest Cruiserweights of all time, to THE HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION! Billy: Some people honestly never thought Teo Blaze could be a World Champion, and hold on to it this long, but he's a fighting champion! And the show is still on the air and the bills being paid, so you can't use that dumb shoot about him tanking the rankings, you fucking nerds! Chris Avery: The World Title has had a roller coaster few months, going from Tatiana Jolee, to Downfall, to Angelo, but if Teo can overcome this challenge tonight, he's looking to having a good run at champion, against a heavy field of challengers!
Flashbulbs flicker throughout the entire building as Jaice and Teo stand on opposite sides of the ring from each other. Jaice and Teo walk out to the center of the ring where each man stares into the eyes of the other as the crowd starts to get louder and louder, and it gets hard to think. Jaice looks from one side of the crowd, to the other, a big smile on his face, while Teo is a study in stoicism. The referee holds the AW World Championship up to both, presenting the title to give this a big match feel. Jaice looks at it hungrily, making a title sign around his waist. Teo just stares at Jaice, then nods at the referee, who orders the bell rung. DING DING DING
The two men begin circling each other, and finally, after some stalling, and some feinting, they shoot in to lock up center ring with a collar X elbow tieup. Chris Avery: Here we go, the clash of two of the most iconoclastic, explosive cruiserweights in their time! Billy: Get ready to see some good... lucha things in this match! Chris Avery: Really? A "Good lucha things" reference, in 2024, based on a promo in another company years ago?? Billy: YOU TRY COMING UP FOR MATERIAL, LEXI STONE USUALLY CALLS THIS SHIT!
Both men jockey for position, shoving each other around like bulls, Jaice actually pushing Teo into the ropes, before Teo drives a knee into the right ribs of Jaice causing Wilds to break the lock up, and stagger back into the ropes. Jaice snarls across the battleground at Teo before coming off the ropes where they lock up once again. Teo backs Jaice up into the ropes where the referee calls for and gets a clean break from Teo. Teo makes his way back out to the center of the ring where he waits for Jaice. Jaice walks back out to the center of the ring where they look to lock up again, Jaice manages to duck the lock up while taking a back waist lock. Jaice drops down to his knee’s before pulling the legs out from under Teo sending Teo to his stomach. Jaice floats into a side head lock where he starts cranking on the head of Teo. The referee is in position asking Teo to surrender, he refuses before starting to work his way back to his feet where he delivers several forearms to the ribs before backing Jaice up against the ropes where he sends X-Treme Aerialist across the ring with an irish whip, Jaice bounces off the ropes where he walks into a scoop powerslam by Teo. Teo quickly covers. ONE!
KICKOUT!!Teo is quickly to his feet where he picks Jaice up off the mat before delivering a back breaker. He quickly makes another cover. ONE!
KICKOUT!!Jaice once again throws a shoulder up off the mat. Teo reaches his feet, quickly pullling Jaice up off the mat and leaning him against the ropes. Now, Teo lays in with a knife edge chop, drawing a "WOOOOO" from the hot crowd. Teo goes to pull Jaice' arm back, going for another chop, however, Jaice quickly gouges the eyes of Teo to loud boos from the crowd. Jaice reverses the positioning and starts hammering away with right hands to the face of Teo before sending Teo over the top rope and out to the floor! Jaice drops down to the mat before rolling out to the floor after Teo. Billy: I didn’t expect this one to break down this early! Chris Avery: Jaice Wilds is like a man possessed, he believes it's his destiny to be World Champion!
Jaice reaches down picking Teo up off the mat before he hurls Teo into the steel steps with force. Teo crashes into the steps with his right knee. The contact causes Teo to flip over the steps before landing hard on the floor as he clutches his right knee, spasming in agony Chris Avery: Astute watchers know that if Jaice can isolate the knee of Teo Blaze, he'll eliminate that deadly Blazing Knee strike, which is what has brought Teo so much success! Billy: You can shit on him for still spending so much on postage stamps in this day and age if you want, but Jaice Wilds ain't no dummy, he knows how to maximize his opportunities!
The referee starts to lay the count to both men as Jaice comes around the corner of the ring with a straight assault on the right knee of Teo with kicks before he picks Teo up and sends him back into the ring under the bottom rope. Jaice slides into the ring as well where he pulls himself to his feet and measures Teo as he pushes himself up off the mat and back to a vertical base only to receive a chop block from behind to the right knee which sends Teo back to the mat screaming in pain. Jaice picks up the right leg as he rolls Teo over to his back. He yanks Teo towards the ropes where he drapes Teo’s right leg across the bottom rope. Jaice steps up on the middle rope where he gets more momentum before driving his weight down on top of the right knee of the champ. Jaice steps back up on the middle ropes where he drives his weight down across the right knee of Teo a second time. Chris Avery: Jaice is picking that knee apart.
The referee checks on Teo as Jaice yanks the right leg off the ropes before dragging Teo out to the center of the ring where he executes a one legged Boston crab! There’s a mixed reaction from the crowd as Jaice cranks back on the right leg while sitting further on the lower back of Teo. The referee asks Teo to surrender. He refuses before starting to crawl towards the ropes. Jaice quickly transitions into a STF submission! The referee once again asks Teo to surrender, and again he refuses. Chris Avery: A smart transiton from Wilds, as he could feel Teo pulling himself closer and closer to the ropes.
Jaice cranks on the STF as the referee continues to ask Teo to surrender, and again Teo refuses. The bottom rope is inches away from his grasp and with one last effort Teo pulls his body close enough to the ropes to grab the bottom rope! The referee calls for the break yet Jaice doesn’t release the hold. The crowd boos heavily. Chris Avery: Jaice is hanging on like a pitbull on a bone! Billy: I think Jaice doesn't even care if he has to be the bad guy in this match, as long as it gets him to the World title!
Jaice releases the hold and is admonished by the official as he reaches his feet. Teo clutches at his right knee. Jaice makes his way back over towards Teo where he picks him up off the mat. Jaice drives Teo back into a neutral corner with a shoulder block before he takes the right leg of Teo and props it up on the middle rope where Jaice then starts kicking away at the knee cap! The crowd starts to rally behind Blaze as a “Teo, Teo, Teo" chant starts to echo throughout the arena. The referee lays the count to Jaice as he continues to kick away at the right knee before backing away from the corner to loud boos from the crowd. Teo manages to pull his leg back into the ring as Jaice charges forward looking for a clothesline, Teo quickly counters with a reverse elbow that sends Jaice staggering backwards towards the center of the ring. Teo steps up on the middle rope before leaping off with a missile dropkick that sends Jaice to the mat and rolling out to the floor under the bottom rope while Teo continues to grab at his right knee. Chris Avery: One has to wonder how much damage has been done to the knee of Teo because Teo isn’t as quick to capitalize!
Teo rolls towards the ropes where he uses them to help him get to his feet while out on the floor Jaice is shown working his way to his feet. Teo sling shots over the top rope with a flying cross body block to the X-Treme Aerialist to a huge ovation from the crowd. Teo manages to take a mount position on Jaice before hammering away with right hands to the face of Jaice! Teo pushes himself up off the body of the X-Treme Aerialist before picking him up and taking him towards the announcers table. Teo picks Jaice up before dropping him ribs and face first across the announcers table! Teo turns and limps towards the ring where he rolls in before rolling right back out breaking the referee’s count. Teo picks Jaice up off the floor before driving him lower back first into the ring apron followed by a stiff right hand to the ribs which nearly drops Jaice. Teo rolls Jaice back into the ring before climbing up on the ring apron where he steps back through the ropes. Teo reaches down picking Jaice up off the mat before hurling him into the ropes. Jaice bounces off the ropes and into an abdominal stretch. Chris Avery: All the pressure rests on the ribs of Jaice!
The referee asks Jaice to surrender, he refuses which causes Teo to start driving elbows to the right ribs of Jaice with his free elbow. The referee continues to Jaice to surrender and again Jaice refuses as Teo continues to drive elbows to the ribs of Jaice. Finally Teo releases the hold. He takes Jaice back into a corner where he delivers shoulder blocks to ribs before delivering a European uppercut. Teo brings Jaice into the ropes where he shoots him across the ring with an irish whip, Jaice bounces off the ropes and runs into Teo who rips off a hyper velocity Habanero Hurricane spinning kick! Jaice hits the mat like a ton of bricks while Teo is shown rolling out to the ring apron before using the ropes to pull himself to his feet. The crowd gets louder and louder as Teo starts to scale the turnbuckles. Billy: Teo is looking to fly!!
Teo stands up on the top turnbuckle. The crowd roars as Teo delivering a 450 splash to the ribs of a prone Jaice. Teo quickly makes the cover hooking the nearest leg! ONE!TWO!!THR--KICKOUT!!!
Teo breathes heavily, looking around at the front row, and then looks at Jaice, a bit perturbed by his opponent's resilience. The slightly unhinged side of Teo begins to assert itself on his face as he picks Jaice up. He locks a front face lock before delivering a snap suplex! The crowd inside the arena comes to a fever pitch as Teo points up to the top turnbuckle. However, he's taken too long to get it going, as he staggers getting onto the top rope. Teo rights himself, finally getting to the rope, set for a moonsault, but then Jaice Wilds shoots forward and runs into the corner, clubbing Teo hard with a chop to the back. Teo winces, and Jaice reaches between his legs and up, grabbing Teo's hair while Teo is still turned backwards on the ropes. Jaice pulls Teo down and slams Teo's head into the turnbuckle! Teo, in so much pain that he doesn't move off the turnbuckle, sits there doubled over on the top rope. Then Jaice backs two steps up, and then surges forward, delivering a superkick between Teo's legs that blasts Teo right in the face. Teo hangs by one hand on the top rope, but he is so dazed by the superkick that he finally sloughs off and crashes, hard, into the mat! Jaice rests for a second, then he looks around, sensing his moment is slipping away. Gritting his teeth and pushing through the fatigue, he climbs to the top rope and comes off with an insane looking corkscrew senton into a leg drop on the prone Teo Blaze! Chris Avery: AERIAL ACE!
Jaice breathes heavily after the hard landing, grimacing and holding his lower back in agony, but he sees Teo laid out. Jaice begins crawling on his elbows towards Teo. Billy: This is your chance to silence all the haters, everyone who ever said you were kind of a dork, everyone who said you don't belong in a PPV main event!
Jaice crawls over and grabs onto Teo with a desperate, both-leg hooked cover. ONE!TWO!!THR--KICKOUT!!!
There’s a massive gasp as Teo shoots a shoulder up off the mat! Chris Avery: I thought he had him! Billy: The wails of hate watchers on Twitter/X would have been the funniest shit ever if Jaice had won the title, I swear to God -
Jaice has sweat running heavily down his face and his hair falling in his eyes as he sits up, staring uncomprehendingly down at Teo. Jaice cuts his eyes towards the referee as he slowly starts to make his way back to his feet. He reaches down picking Teo up off the mat, and setting him up for a standing Spanish fly... but NO! Teo begins elbowing his way out of it! Teo clobbers Jaice with a spinning back elbow that would knock some spit and/or teeth flying, and keep Jaice tottering on unsteady legs, and then, in a spurt of adrenaline, Teo runs to the ropes... hops up to spring back off, and takes Jaice down with a springboard Oscutter!! Chris Avery: PSYCHOGUN! OUT OF NOWHERE!!! Billy: Where did Teo Blaze get that burst of energy from??
Teo is struggling to move as well, but he makes his way over, pushing Jaice over for a cover. ONE!TWO!!THR--KICKOUT!!!
Teo slumps off, exhausted, but he immediately begins pushing himself up, his usually coiffed hair wild and his eyes wilder, as he knows he has to do this for everyone who believed in him to get him to the World Title, for his partner Andre Jenson and the Two Gents. Teo goes in the corner, and begins bouncing his leg in anticipation, almost vibrating with energy. He motions that it's over and Jaice begins groaning, rolling over, holding his neck. Jaice rolls onto all fours, then starts stumbling to his feet... and Teo CHARGES all the way across, barnstorming the ring to smash into Jaice with a hellacious leaping knee that knocks Jaice nearly out of his boots, and definitely into the ropes! Teo has to roll Jaice away from underneath the bottom rope to pin him... Chris Avery: BLAZINGGGG KNEE!!! Billy: The move that brought Teo to the World Title! The move that felled Gerard Angelo! ONE!TWO!!THR--NOOO!!!
JAICE GETS HIS FOOT ON THE ROPES!! Chris Avery: WHAT. Billy: THE. Chris Avery: EVERLOVING. Billy: FFFFUUUC - Chris Avery: JAICE WILDS IS STILL ALIVE! JAICE WILDS IS STILL IN THIS MATCH! SOMEHOW, SOMEWAY, JAICE WILDS IS STILL TRYING TO GET TO HIS FEET, AND TEO DOESN'T EVEN KNOW WHAT TO DO ABOUT IT??! Billy: THIS WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH IS BUILT ON TWO UNDERDOGS, TWO MEN WHO HAVE BEEN PUT DOWN, DISRESPECTED AND WRITTEN OFF AS NOT WORLD TITLE MATERIAL, OUT TO PROVE THAT THEY BELONG HERE! THAT THIS IS THEIR MAIN EVENT!
Teo cringes in pain, wiping a fleck of blood out of his countenance and feeling a million aches and pains, as he starts to push himself up off the mat and back to his feet. Teo falls back into the ropes which supports his weight before he steps out to the ring apron, gripping the top rope and hesitating, hoping it'll hold his weight, before throwing all caution to the winds and springboarding over the ropes, hoping for a high angle slingshot body splash, but as he's flying up for the high angle portion of it and clearing the ropes, suddenly, Jaice comes alive! Jaice catches Teo and on the wayyyy down, he flips them end over end with a SPANISH FLY OUT OF NOWHERE WHAT THE FU - Chris Avery: HOLY FUCKING SHITFIREEE DID YOU SEE THAT?? Billy: I SEE IT BUT I DON'T BELIEVE IT, JAICE SNATCHED TEO OUT OF MIDAIR! Chris Avery: AGENT OF CHAOS! AGENT OF CHAOS! BOTH MEN ARE DOWN!!
Jaice, winded from the impact of having to catch Teo at just the right angle, has to take a breather, and Teo crawls over to the corner, supporting himself on the bottom rope. Jaice rolls over, and spots Teo, and a determined look crosses his eyes, because for Jaice, he knows this is his shot, he knows if he loses this, he IS Icarus, and he's flown too close to the sun. And he will not let it all slip through his hands, it would be so tragic if that happened to him. So he pushes himself up, and he works his way back to his feet, clutching at his ribs. He reaches down picking Teo up off the mat before hurling him into the ropes, Blaze bounces off the ropes and into a crescent kick from the Final General, cutting him down. Jaice sinks down with him, exhausted and finally content that he did everything he could. Chris Avery: XTREME DREAM! Billy: It's over. It has to be over. Teo Blaze's Cinderella story is done. He's going down as the man who lost his title on the first defense, and all the Jaice critics are going to have a field day. ONE!TWO!!THR--KICKOUT!!!
The roar of the crowd when Teo kicks out at 2.9 is deafening, and Jaice sits in stunned silence for just a second, and then, his head whips around, staring at the fans, seeing in their support for Teo that he's been rejected, and he's losing the plot, Jaice begins visibly short circuiting. The crowd is applauding in a standing fucking O, and a chant of "TEO, TEO, TEO" is shaking the rafters, man. Jaice shoots a look at the referee, screaming "That was THREE!" but the referee assures him it was not. Chris Avery: Teo Blaze will not die! Teo Blaze will not let this World Championship he fought so hard for this past fall slip through his grasp on his first defense!
Jaice grits his teeth, red-faced. He pushes his way up to his feet, shoving past the referee, and going to the corner. Mocking Teo from earlier, he tunes up the band, jogging his leg, and motioning, begging for Teo to get up so he can give him another, a more "Final" shot, another XTreme Dream to end Teo's for good. The crowd boo’s intently as Jaice measures a very groggy Teo, who starts to stir. He pushes himself up off the mat and to a vertical base, slowly turning around. Teo slowly spins around and as he does Jaice comes out from the corner looking to deliver the Xtreme Dream again... BUT, Blaze ducks under it, and Jaice is now turned around in a circle, wildly... Jaice turns... Billy: BLAZING KNEE! OUT OF NOWHERE!
Jaice falls like a rock, dropping to his back and not moving, and Teo, riding the momentum, hooks the leg! Chris Avery: A SECOND BLAZING KNEE! HE GOT ALLLLL OF IT!! Billy: CAN IT BE?? ONE!TWO!!THREE!!! DING DING DING

CLOSING TIME Ethan Miller: Here is your winner... and STILLLLL AW WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION... TEO BLAZE!!!
"Kickstart My Heart" by Dance with the Dead hits on the PA, and Teo Blaze is handed the AW World Championship! An exhausted, battered Teo laughs and holds the title to his chest. Chris Avery: TEO HAS DONE IT! TEO HAS RETAINED THE AW WORLD TITLE! Billy: You know Avery, a lot of people have said the AW World Title is cursed this year, but Teo Blaze has done more than just retain a belt, he's shown he has what it takes to be a strong champion for the brand! I'm proud of what he did tonight!
Jaice Wilds is being helped to the apron in defeat, and he is being told what happened; He looks crestfallen and as if he can't believe what happened. Beside himself, he pounds the mat. A few long moments pass, and he seems to push it down and nod his head, accepting the outcome, and he gives Teo a nod. Teo puts the World Championship on his shoulder, and nods back at Jaice. Chris Avery: Teo and Jaice both said there was a layer of respect to this match, and in the end, the two greatest aerialists really showed out today. Billy: Where Jaice goes from here? Who can say. But for now, the story is that TEO BLAZE is still your AW World Champion. What a wild year AW is starting out with!Teo holds the AW World Title belt up, climbing onto the turnbuckle to celebrate with the crowd. Pyro goes off on the stage and the fans go bonkers for Teo. Chris Avery: Teo Blaze just survived a Premium Live Event with the World Championship! So many champions before him couldn't even do that!Billy: Yeah... but he 'bout to have the fight of his life against Odin Balfore next week at April Fools Gold!!! Chris Avery: Speaking of Odin... LOOK!!!
The camera pans over to show Odin Balfore standing on the stage. He points at Teo, and again motions a title belt around his waist. Teo doesn't back down, as he proudly holds the title over his head. That's the final shot as the show goes off the air.
