Great Southern Bank Arena - Springfield, MO Capacity: 11,000 Billy: Well, this is it Chris. The final Monday Night Clash before Action Wrestling’s Blast! Chris Avery: Blast is one of the most anticipated pay-per-views in Action Wrestling history Billy! Both the AW World and Cruiserweight Tag Team Championships will be defended that night. As will the Omega Championship… Billy: And let’s not forget about the Fatal Four Way match for the coveted World Championship! Chris Avery: But one match on that card that promises to be an absolute barnburner is the match that will declare the thirtieth entrant into the 2024 Havoc Rumble as Doc Holiday faces off against Jonny Cedrone. Billy: No doubt about that, Chris. Both men are hungry to get to the top of the mountain here in Action Wrestling and have no qualms to use the other as that proverbial steppingstone to the top. Chris Avery: As we all know, the thirtieth entry proves to be the one with the most advantage because after the rest of the twenty-nine competitors have been in and out of the Rumble, the competition is depleting by the time that entrant enters the match, but those who are still in it are tired. As the last entrant in, you’re as fresh as a daisy! Billy: And to add on top of that, it almost goes without saying, the winner of the Havoc Rumble moves on to Evolution and challenges for the World Championship, something that both of these warriors – among many others on the roster – have been striving for since they’ve come into Action Wrestling! Chris Avery: Before we make it to Blast though, we have one more stop along the highway as tonight is an “Oops! All Tag Matches” Monday Night Clash where strange bedfellows form tag teams with the common goal: win! Billy: But with everything that’s at stake and all the egos involved tonight, how can any of these teams work as a cohesive unit long enough to achieve that goal? Chris Avery: That’s a question that can only be answered by the competitors involved, and one such man had some choice words about that subject. He is a former Hardcore Champion; a former two-time United States Champion; a former Tag Team Champion and a former Trios Champion and tonight he’s forced to team up with his opponent in six days, Doc Holiday. Billy: Of course, we’re talking about Jonny Cedrone and he had these pre-recorded comments about tonight and the upcoming pay-per-view.
The scene cuts to those pre-recorded comments where we see Jonny dressed in his wrestling gear standing in front of the interview area backstage, looking dead into the camera. The fans cheer at the sight of Jonny on the Action-tron! Jonny Cedrone: Tick tock! Tick tock! And no, I’m not talkin’ about that social media. No, that’s a clock and time’s-a-tickin’ away! The time has finally come! We’ve reached the end of the Road to Havoc tournament! In just six short days, in the Coleman Coliseum in Tuscaloosa, Alabama two of the hungriest warriors will battle it out to see who gets to claim the thirtieth entry in the Havoc Rumble!
Doc Holiday, you and I have gone to war plenty of times in the past and you’re right, every time we’ve gone to war, winners were declared but nobody left those battlegrounds feelin’ how a winner should feel! Blood, sweat, tears, hopes and dreams were left behind every time we battled, while our hunger has lived on! April, 28th is literally just around the corner and once again we will collide like two titans! And once we collide in the middle of that ring, there will be nothin’ left of the Coleman Coliseum but a crater where it once stood!
But!
Before we get there, we have to do a little business tonight. And I mean business Doc. As you know, I’m a successful business man and of course I know that you’re a successful business man and tonight, we have to use our business acumen and somehow or another function as a cohesive unit. I don’t care if it’s juuuust long enough to get this job done and then we beat the hell outta one another once we get this win! Just as long as we get the win!
There’s one thing – well, hopefully at least two things that we have in common. The first thing is that we both want to win. That in and of itself should be the drivin’ force behind us comin’ together as one long enough to get the job done. The other thing that we have in common is standin’ across the ring from us is that big, jacked up German geriatric experiment that took the TV Title from you and the US Title from me. If that doesn’t unite us as a front to exact some retribution on that Mr. Freeze wannabe, nothin’ will!
Also, standin’ across the ring from us, is a man who’s just as hungry as we are to become the best in this company and he’ll do anything and everything that it takes to achieve that goal! I’ve been in the ring with him. He’s good. He’s REAL good! He’s tough. He’s a hard man to beat. He doesn’t know the meanin’ of the word “quit” and will rip your arm off and beat you with it if that means that he gets the win! The only thing that could help us out on that side of the ring is the fact that he and his partner likes one another just about as much as you and I do Doc!
Ladies and gentlemen, if y’all think that you’re in for a wrestlin’ clinic tonight…ya might have another thing comin’. This has chaos written all over it…and I’m all about it! What could possibly be a more fun way to go into Blast than have such a volatile situation such as havin’ so many people with so much hatred for one another be tag team partners?!
This…my friends…is gonna be a…blast!

TJ Alexander & Jay Best vs. Jacob Koenig & Super Mario
Billy: Tonight's episode of Monday Night Clash is all random tag matches, pal! Chris Avery: Let's kick things off with one then!
(Please write out how your character's entrance will be used for results writing) Billy: TJ Alexander and Jaice Wilds are a week away from a shot at the Cruiserweight Tag Team Championship held by Vespertine and Karlie Nash! Let's see how he fairs tonight with a different partner!
The arena lights flash purple and deep blue in accordance with 'The Day You Come' by Brisbane’s own Powderfinger as "BEST ENTRANCE EVER" appears on screens everywhere with a slow motion beach training montage of "King Shit" himself. Jay elaborately steps out with a grin from ear to ear with his arms outstretched, hopping to a stop and squatting whilst rolling his knuckles, glaring at the ring ahead with his wicked grin intact, chewing his gum to the crowd's annoyance. Jay pounds the floor and shoots to his feet, marching down to the ring mocking fans and slapping signs, punching and kicking any hand that reaches out for him before he climbs the steel steps and wipes his boots on the ring apron, stepping up the turnbuckles from the outside and simply dropping to the mat, turning his back on the opponent disrespectfully. Billy: Jay Best made his in-ring debut last week and... I gotta be honest... I don't think he's the best!
"For The Glory" by All Good Things plays and out comes the master of the backbreaker Jacob Koenig. He stands on the stage and looks out at the fans. Ethan Miller: Making his way to the ring... weighing in at one hundred and ninety-five pounds... from Minneapolis, Minnesota... JACOB KOENIG!
By now, Koenig is halfway down the ramp, and he slaps hands with only some of the fans. He walks up the ring steps and steps between the ropes. He throws both fists in the air and gets a good reaction from the fans. Billy: He's been back for a bit after all that Zmac hit business. He looks okay though. Chris Avery: That's because Zmac didn't take him out. He took out some guy named Justin keoning. Billy: Oh.
as smoke fills the stage a green pipe rises up and Mario rises up out of the pipe and raps the lyrics to his theme as he high fives the crowd and leads the crowd in doing the Mario then sits in the corner staring a death glare at his opponent waiting patiently for the bell to ring Chris Avery: And there's the mobster himself! He's making his return after-- Billy: SHITFIRE!
Before anything can go down, Super Mario grabs Jacob Koenig by the throat and nails him with a south of heaven chokeslam in the middle of the ring. He stands over him, and Jay Best tries to make a name for himself by going after Mario. DING DING DING Chris Avery: I guess this one is starting?!
Jay Best lights up Super Mario with some strikes. Mario shoves him away. Jay runs back in and Mario catches him by the throat, then delivers another south of heaven chokeslam. Mario looks over at TJ and dares him to come get some. TJ charges and the two engage in fistacuffs. Mario gets in a cheap shot to TJ's throat, then goes for the chokeslam--but TJ slips out. He takes a step back and then nails Mario with a superkick, followed by a falcon arrow. Billy: THE GAME CHANGER!
Before he can go for a pin, Mario rolls to the ring apron. Chris Avery: Okay, so I guess TJ and Jacob are the legal men now. Billy: Yeah, pal. I ain't seen Jay Best since he took that chokeslam.
The fans cheer for TJ as he pulls Jacob up. Jacob breaks free and lights TJ up with a striking combo before pulling him in for a powerbomb. Before he can execute it, TJ back body drops him out. Jacob lands flat on his back and TJ does a standing shooting star press. Chris Avery: There's the cover! ONE!
TWO!!
KICKOUT!!!TJ gets to his feet and claps his hands, and the fans clap along with him. He walks behind Jacob as he slowly gets to his feet. He hooks Jacob from behind, but Jacob catches him with a back elbow. Jacob goes to make the tag to Mario, who instead clobbers him with a lead pipe. Billy: SHITFIRE!
Jacob drops to the mat, and Mario drops down from the apron. Billy: How the turntables...
TJ looks down at Jacob, as the referee checks on him. Blood is pouring from his head, and TJ makes the decision to make the cover. ONE!
TWO!!
THREE!!!DING DING DING Ethan Miller: The winners of this match... TJ Alexander and Jay Best! Chris Avery: TJ Alexander is the only winner here. Jay Best didn't do anything.
TJ his arm raised by the referee as medical personnel assemble to tend to Jacob. (The lights go out and the tron comes up. On the screen we see the shipping dock area of the arena. The camera zooms in what looks to be a body on the floor. The camera zooms in and we see that the body is Vespertine, half dressed and covered in blood. Someone has just seen the body and has called for help, and medics seem to be rushing to the scene even as we watch. Then the words on screen come up: "Mess with the best. Die like the rest."
Then the words disapate and as we watch medical personnel gather around the still knocked out form of Vespertine, the camera fades to black. The Tron goes out and the lights come back up.) Billy: She sendin' a message to ol' TJ Alexander, pal! Chris Avery: They'll meet again at Blast in a Falls Count Anywhere Match!

LET'S HEAR FROM KARLIE NASH...
The screen slowly fades into Karlie sitting by the pool. Karlie smirked. Karlie: Florida is pretty good even this time of the year.
Karlie looked to her right and smiled. Karlie: Now I bet everyone is wondering why I’m here and not at Clash, simply I chose not to be, sometime people need to take a few days to wind down, and honestly no one in Action Wrestling has the grind I do, Hockey, wrestling, running a church, how many people in Action wrestling would play a hockey early in the day, then jump on a plane to travel to wrestle later that night, the answer is no one.
Karlie adjusted her sunglasses. Karlie: I reviewed the match tape from last week and to be honest the match could have continued, but hey I don’t make those calls, they were made by a guy who sits in gorilla and thinks he knows everything, but I get it, safety first right.
Karlie straightened up in her chair. Karlie: And what was the result, Brady Bolt signed a cruiserweight tag title match for Blast, a falls count anywhere hardcore crap match, I am a technically trained actual wrestler not a hardcore garbage wrestler, if people like that crap that’s their right it’s a niche audience of a few.
Karlie again looks to her right to see the woman approaching, it’s the lady ref from last week's cruiserweight tag title match, she walked over and sat down next to karlie. Lady Ref: I’m sorry I can’t be in Springfield but I wasn’t medically cleared to be there.
The ref looked at Karlie. Lady ref: Tell your doctor thanks for that. Karlie: I’ll let her know.
People walk by them. Karlie: Yeah this is way better than being in a dump like Springfield Missouri.
A scantily-clad woman brings Karlie a bottle of water, karlie lowered her sunglasses to check her out. Karlie: Definitely better.

Jessie Lee & Jody Madrox vs. Vespertine & Jaice Wilds Ethan Miller: The following tag team contest is scheduled for one fall, introducing team number one.
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. Ethan Miller: And her partner. From Detroit, Michigan, Jody Madrox.
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. Ethan Miller: And their opponents.
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. Ethan Miller: And his partner.
(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 backflip 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 whereupon 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 trench coat 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, one half of eNVy and one half of the Cruiserweight Tag team champions she is THE Well Rounded Fighting Machine, VESPERTINEEE!!!!!! Billy: Vespertine teaming up with one of her opponents at Blast. Chris Avery: And I have to say because the viewing audience is expecting it, can they co-exist. Billy: And Vespertine is here tonight but her partner isn’t, apparently Karlie didn’t think Springfield was worth her time. Chris Avery: Yeah, it does put Vespertine in a tight spot considering Jaice’s partner is here tonight.
After some heated debates, Jaice and Jody start the match. Jaice and Jody stare each other down then lockup, Jody gets a side headlock and wrenched Jaice maneuvered and hip tossed Jody to the mat, Jody jumped up and Jaice took him down with several arm drags, then locked in a arm bar and wrenched, this time Jody maneuvered out of the arm bar. Jody unloaded on Jaice with a series of forearms smashes to the face of Jaice the whipped him off the ropes and dropped Jaice with a bossman slam and went for the pin. ONE!
KICKOUT!!Jody stomped Jaice repeatedly, then picked him up and kicked in the gut and locked in an abdominal stretch. Jessie and Ves oddly don’t seem interested in the match. Billy: You think Karlie intentionally left Vespertine out to dry here tonight. Chris Avery: Karlie has been highly erratic, she puts in the work for sure, but she does tend to skip shows at the oddest of times like tonight. Billy: So yes then.
Jaice fought out of the Abdominal stretch, and again hip tossed Jody popped up and ate an Enziguri from Jacie who then rolled a slapped Ves on the arm, Ves didn’t look impressed but stepped through the ropes, she and Jaice jaw jacked each other, then Ves turns out of the corner right into a Jessie Lee big boot. Jessie lifted Ves up and hooked her, then lifted her vertically and held her for several seconds, Jessie taunted the crowd then fell backward completing the delayed vertical suplex. Jessie locked Ves in an inverted boston crab pressing her knee into the lower back of Ves. Jessie smirked and bent Ves back. Jessie broke the hold and stomped the back of Ves. Jessie pulled Ves up and locked her in a tight bear hug and wrenched Ves, then rag dolled her then slammed Ves to the mat with a belly to belly suplex. Jessie then whipped Ves into the corner and dropped her with a clothesline and back up and charged into the corner, Ves at the last moment rolled out of the way of the cannonball senton. Ves scaled the ropes and nailed Jessie with a missile drop kick, then connected with head scissors DDT and covered. ONE!
TWO!!
KICKOUT!!!Ves whipped Jessie into the corner and dropped her with a corner dropkick, Ves backed up readying for a corner only for Jaice to slap her on the back and tag himself in. Ves and Jaice argue and the ref orders Ves out of the ring, she stepped through to the outside. A slightly ticked off Jessie sprinted out of the corner Jaice sidestepped her big boot attempt and connected with pele kick superkick, Jaice scaled the roped and connected with a diving big splash and cover. ONE!
TWO!!
NOOO!!!Jody broke up the count. Jody went back to his corner. Jaice connected with a spinning back elbow, and delivered a German suplex, Jaice springboard of the ropes for a lionsault only for Jessie the get her knees up, Jessie rolled into the corner and Jody tagged himself Jody applied a side headlock and wrenched Jaice pushed him into the closet corner, Ves gave Jaice a hard slap on the back tagging herself back into the match. She scaled the ropes and took down Jody with a blockbuster, then rolled through and dropped kicked Jessie off the apron. Ves connected with a dropkick to the knee, followed by a float over DDT. Ves quickly scaled the ropes and connected with a high angle moonsault and covered. ONE!
TWO!!
NOOO!!!Jessie breaks the count. The referee urges that she leaves the ring, but she ignores the demand. Jaice comes out of nowhere with a spinning heel kick to Jessie, and she rolls toward the corner. Jaice goes back to the ring apron and he jumps around, waving to Ves. Ves makes the tag to Jaice, as Jody makes the tag to Jessie. Both enter quickly and they charge in and-- Billy: SHITFIRE! FATALITYYYY!!!!
Jaice goes down hard and Ves comes back in to make the save, but gets take out by a flying axe handle from Jody. Chris Avery: THERE'S THE COVER!!! ONE!
TWO!!
THREE!!!DING DING DING Ethan Miller: Here are your winners... Jessie Lee and Jody Madrox!!
They have their arms raised in victory as Vespertine stands on the outside of the ring, furious at the loss. She slides back into the ring and goes over to Jaice. She helps him up slowly. Chris Avery: They may be opponents at Blast, but tonight... they got to try things out as a-- Billy: SHITFIRE! DEATH BY DIVA!!
Indeed. Ves was quick to hit her Japanese lungblower/stranglehold combo on Jaice. The referee is doing his best to break it up as we head to a commercial break

LET'S HEAR FROM... OZONE DYNASTY DUO?
There is a duo in a private locker room, but it is Lexi Sparkles and Sara Pettis. Lexi looks distraught as Sara paces around the room on the phone. Sara Pettis: Listen to me carefully, Pete. Whatever you've got planned... whatever you're working on... it will fail.

She holds Lexi close. Sara Pettis: We'll get him back.
She pauses. Sara Pettis: I promise.
Das ende.

Sicko & Niobe Martin vs. The Green & Addy A
The lights dim, and on the Tron, a small boy steps up in a black background on the video, singing in a high aria, mournfully. After a few seconds, other children's voices join in, singing in a key of alto, their heads down, and their skin under the spotlight pale and ghostly. And then, the choir of children stop singing, and their eyes, uniformly, turn vacant, white, and staring, and each child's mouth stretches open into a death-metal screech just as the staccato drums and the blistering opening of "I, The Mask" by In Flames, starts playing over the PA. As the lights come fully up, a battered, dilapidated ice cream truck, it's paint and decals peeling in a sinister manner rumbles up on stage, it's axles shaking with effort. The entrance ramp is backlit with a hellish red lighting as the ice cream truck pulls into a spot just to the left of the entrance ramp, making this vessel seem like some demonic harbinger. The Tron shows scattershot images; Sicko, walking down a long hallway, his back turned to the camera, then we see an image of a plastic clown mask being pulled down over a barely illuminated, scarred head; An apocalyptic, burned out city awash in blood reds and flickering flames; the spotlight on the choir of white-eyed children with their mouths stretched open wide; "Who am I? So many faces, dressed in rags for all to see Here I am in the mask The Jester that wants to be free I am done with watching graves grow mold The sins are mine, I believe them to be All the tears, they're draining me We find the truth through tragedy Give me a sign, I'm on my knees Feel like you've forgotten me Who am I? So many faces, dressed in rags for all to see Here I am in the mask The Jester that wants to be free" As the metal song continues it's nonstop auditory cacophony of shredding guitars and drums, shots of Sicko ruthlessly attacking and destroying past superstars flicker on the screen. Sicko steps out from behind the wheel of the ice cream truck, wearing an unsettling, cracked, slightly charred vintage Halloween mask that looks like a clown with a terrifying grin; As Sicko's beady eyes stare out through the mask, he cocks an ear, listening to an unheard spoken word or command, and he responds, talking to himself. A red mist rolls out from the interior of the ice cream truck with Sicko. The Demon Clown slowly makes his way down to the ring, like a predator on the hunt. As he climbs onto the apron, Anders is just getting to the "WILL YOU SEE ME IF I SET FIRE TO THE SKY?" Sicko holds his arms out at his sides and he throws his head back, letting out a guttural roar. As Sicko climbs over the top rope, he turns his head to talk to a voice only he can hear, waiting for the match to start. Billy: Jesus, first Bozo, now this guy? I bet John Wayne Gacy would be signed to a contract if he was still alive. Chris Avery: I dunno how to respond to that, Billy, so I’m gonna keep trucking. Sicko earned himself a title shot at the Omega title last week. He is set to face The Green one-on-one at Blast but tonight we get a preview of that!
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 "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: Niobe has the biggest bone to pick with Addy A. Not only did Addy beat her for the coveted Television Championship but Niobe hasn’t even gotten a rematch for it. Chris Avery: Well if she comes out here and beats Addy A and The Green, I’m sure she’ll have a claim to all three belts they have. And she has a good chance of winning with that demented freak Sicko as her partner.
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: Where did this influx of nearly seven feet tall monsters come from? I thought giants were a thing of the past in wrestling just like true centers in basketball! Chris Avery: I didn’t know you were a basketball aficionado, Billy. Billy: I’m not. I just love NBA Twitter.
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 if she didn't intend to show her ass to the crowd. Ethan Miller: Coming to the ring, by way of Venice, California.... ADDY AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!! Billy: Listen to that ovation for Addy2Belts! The current Cruiserweight and Television champion is riding a wave of momentum since returning earlier this year. Chris Avery: Addy A is everyone's favorite foul-mouthed party girl. She’s what Paris Hilton wished she was in 2005! Billy: Jesus, get some more recent pop culture references.
The Green turns to Addy and looks to be discussing strategy when Sicko just runs in and bodychecks Green, sending him sprawling. Addy dips out and gets on the apron, giving Sicko some lip as he starts putting the boots to the Omega Champion. Niobe doesn’t look too pleased in her corner that her partner took the initiative. The referee calls for the bell as he’s pretty sure he couldn't get the psycho clown to back off if he tried. Sicko grabs Green by the beard and pulls him up to his feet. He scoops The Green up before slamming him into the canvas. Sicko laughs to himself before he runs and bounces off the ropes. The massive clown comes back and leaps up into the air, coming down with his full weight across The Green’s sternum with a body splash! Sicko covers! ONE!
TW--KICKOUT!!The Green kicks out with authority. Sicko laughs again and pulls the green up to a sitting position before blasting him in the jaw with right hands. Billy: Sicko attacking The Green before the bell rings but Green is looking resilient here. Chris Avery: Both of these guys are similar size but we’ve seen in his short career here that it’s gonna take a lot more than that to put the Omega Champ away. Even from a powerhouse like Sicko.
Sicko pulls The Green back to his feet with a wicked grin on his painted face. He scooped the Omega champion up onto his shoulder and looked to run him into the corner but Green slipped off Sicko’s shoulders and shoved him chest-first into the turnbuckle. The clown stumbled out of the corner and right into a vicious lariat from The Green, knocking the clown down. The Green ran and rebounded off the ropes, coming back with a huge leaping elbow to the chest of Sicko! The Demon Clown rolls to his feet but The Gree is up and spins him around before a massive hand wraps around the throat of Sicko. The Green snarls and lifts the nearly 400 pounds of clown up in the air before planting Sicko with a ring-shaking chokeslam! Green goes for a cover! ONE!
TWO!!
NOOO!!!Sicko basically throws The Green off of him when he kicks out. Both men get up and The Green goes to throw a punch but it’s blocked by Sicko who delivers a headbutt that stuns the Omega Champ, putting him on shaky legs. Sicko kicks The Green in the gut. Sick sticks The Green's head between his legs, looking for his package piledriver but The Green churns his legs and drives Sicko into his own corner. Niobe slaps the shoulder of the unsuspecting Sicko as The Green drives his shoulder into the clown’s huge gut over and over. Billy: The Green fighting back against the Demon Clown but did Niobe just tag herself in? Chris Avery: I think she did! I dunno why she’d want to get in there with that monster creeper The Green though!
The Green backs out of the corner before running in and nailing Sicko with a massive boot to the jaw. Sicko slumps down into the corner before rolling down to the floor. The Green goes to follow him but is shoved by Niobe Martin who entered the ring. The Green just looks at her and says “I have no quarrel with you, girl” but she just shakes her head and points across the ring at Addy A and says “ I want her!” Addy looks around and points at herself as if asking “ME?” as the sold-out Great Southern Bank Arena breaks out into a chant of “ADDY! ADDY! ADDY!”. Addy smirks and revels in the chants for a minute before she sticks her hand out. The Green shrugs and steps back to his corner and slaps Addy’s hand, making the crowd erupt as she enters the ring. The Green gets out as Addy walks up to Niobe, talking mad shit to her but Martin responds with a punch! Addy throws a left back and the two women just start trading punches and body blows. Billy: Addy and Niobe going at it! Lots of bad blood between these two! Chris Avery: The last two TV champs just having a good old fashioned brawl here!
Addy goes for a roundhouse kick to the head but Martin ducks, causing Addy to spin around. Niobe grabs Addy’s shoulders and leaps dragging down into a vicious lung blower! Addy bounces and Niobe runs and leaps, hitting the second rope and coming off with a picture-perfect lionsault across the stomach of Addy! Niobe covers! ONE!
TWO!!
KICKOUT!!!Niobe grabs Addy by the hair and lifted her off the mat before slamming a nasty forearm into her face. Martin pulls Addy up to her feet and lifts her up on her shoulder for the Gory Neckbreaker but Addy reverses and rolls her up with a sunset flip! ONE!
TWO!!
KICKOUT!!!The Green reaches a long arm out for a tag to help his partner but he’s ripped off the apron by Sicko. The two behemoths start to brawl on the outside. Billy: And those two giants are trading hands here! It’s like Godzilla and King Kong battling it out for Monsterverse supremacy! Chris Avery: We were almost topical with that one, Billy!
Niobe grabs Addy’s head in a front face lock and sets her up for a DDT but Addy reverses with a Northern Lights Suplex. Instead of keeping the bridge for the pin, Addy stands straight up out of the bridge and Leaps up before dropping a split-legged leg drop across Niobe’s throat! Billy: Shitfire! Aussie Kiss right across Niobe’s throat! Chris Avery: Fantastic combo by our champ champ!
On the outside The Green flings Sicko into the steel steps, moving them a good foot with the impact. The Green backs up and rushes in for a hip check but Sicko moves and The Green hits the steps, flipping over them. Sicko pulls Green to his feet and drives back first into the ring apron with a shoulder tackle. Billy: Shitfire! These two might destroy each other before we even get to the title match! Chris Avery: I just hope they stay away from us! Sicko looks like he's eaten a person before!
Meanwhile, in the ring, Addy and Niobe have been having a banger. Addy kicks Niobe in the gut and goes for the Tinderizer but Martin shoves her off. Addy spins around and walks right into the True Nightmare! Addy falls back and hits the ropes but she bounces off and nails Niobe with Heartless! Both women flop to the mat. Billy: Both of these women are down! Sicko and The Green continue to fight everywhere but in the ring! Chris Avery: I can hear their punches landing from here. Those shots would break the bones of lesser men!
The Green and Sicko continue to brawl up the ramp to the stage. Green grabs the back of Sicko’s head and slams him face-first into the LED panel on the stage, denting it and blacking out the panel. Sicko stumbles back and drops down to one knee. The Green stops and stares down at the ledge off the stage with all of the TV equipment below. Billy: Jesus Christ! Don’t do it, Green! Don't do something you’ll regret! Chris Avery: He’s gonna break Sicko in half!
Green pulls Sicko up and stuffs his head between his legs, setting him up for Winter’s Bough. He goes to lift Sicko but the clown fights out of it and back body drops the Omega Champ onto the steel stage. The green grits his teeth as his body goes ridged and Sicko laughs. He looks down at the ledge and licks his nasty, broken teeth before pulling The Green up. The Demon Clown stuffs Green’s head between his legs. Billy: Dammit get somebody out here! Sicko’s gonna kill him! Chris Avery: Unless Brady Bolt has the Justice League here, I think we’re shit out of luck!
Sicko lifts The Green up into the package and leaps off the stage, driving The Green and himself through the tables and equipment below with the package piledriver, drawing a massive gasp from the crowd! Billy: SHITFIRE! SICKO WITH THE NAPALM CONE OFF THE STAGE! THROUGH A TABLE! THE GREEN HAS TO HAVE A BROKEN NECK! Chris Avery: I think they both have a broken something!
The crowd breaks out into a massive “HOLY SHIT” chant that keeps getting bleeped out because we are on network television people. Referees and agents pour out from backstage as the two men, nigh, monster lay in the rubble and debris on the concrete floor. Back in the ring Addy had been watching all that on the Tron and shrugged, saying “Well those fuckers are dead”. Niobe tried to sneak up behind her with another lung blower but Addy grabbed the top rope, causing Martin to land back first on the mat. Addy grabbed her by the blonde hair and yanked her up. Addy suck her head between Niobe's legs from behind and lifted her up in an electric chair position. Addy tries to grab the wrists but Niobe flips backward and spikes Addy on top of her head with a Poisonrana! Billy: Shitfire! Niobe Martin just planted Addy A! Chris Avery: That’s a game-changing maneuver there! Addy’s out!
Martin makes a cutthroat motion and grabs Addy by the wrist pulling her closer to the corner. Niobe gets out of the ring and climbs up onto the top turnbuckle. Niobe leaps off with her Shooting Star Press but Addy plays a bit of possum and twists her body. As Niobe came crashing down right between Addy’s legs, locking Niobe in a Triangle Choke! Billy: Shitfire! Addy just countered the Phantasm Horror into the WAP! Addy’s got it locked in! Chris Avery: Addy lured Niobe into that one! She’s got her dead to rights!
Addy pulls down on Niobe’s head, locking in the WAP tighter as Martin struggles to free herself. Addy doesn’t budge, grabbing her leg across the back of Niobe’s neck and choking her as the Living Nightmare reaches out with arm and leg, looking for the ropes. Billy: Can she do it?! Can she reach the ropes in-- Chris Avery: NOOO!!! ~TAP~TAP~TAP~TAP~TAP~ DING DING DING
Addy A releases the hold and the referee raises her arm in victory. With her music playing, The Green lurks back to the ring and climbs up onto the apron. He enters the ring and stands triumphant, but stoic, a grim spectre of a knight. However, the Green's attention is diverted from Niobe by an ominous presence, which he senses just as the massive bulk of Sicko crashes into him with a shoulder block, which throws the champion nearly completely off his feet. Sicko is incensed at The Green picking up this win, and so he lays into him with a furious big boot as well, and finally, he grips the throat of The Green, shouts some choice words into his face, and drops him with an impressive chokeslam, despite the Green being of a comparable size. Chris Avery: SICKO IS UNLEASHING EVERYTHING HE'S GOT ON THE CHAMPION! Billy: The Green doesn't show any sign of being down for the count though! Look at him!!The Green grunts in discomfort, already rolling on his side to get up, and Sicko stands over him, fists opening and closing, sensing he's in for a fight... but then, Sicko's attention diverts from The Green to the reason for his fury now. As Niobe is pulling herself up, near tears and holding the back of her head in pain, and Sicko rushes over, clubbing her down and furiously booting her. Sicko's face contorts in a frenzied sneer of disdain, and he exits the ring, jerking Niobe the hard way like a rag doll completely out of the ring. Sicko shouts at Niobe, walking her by the back of her hair, and flinging her the length of the aisle. Niobe is sent with such force that she goes into the guardrail upside down and comes down on the crown of her head. Sicko raises his arms and yells again. Then, Sicko starts stalking towards the timekeepers area. Several referees have come down, trying to desperately beg Sicko to leave the ring. Chris Avery: These men have tried to talk some sense into Sicko, but I don't think he's in any mood!!
Sicko has selected a steel chair, and he forcefully shoves a referee out of the way. The bulky clown carries the steel chair back over to where he left Niobe, by the guardrail, and Niobe is laid out helpless. Sicko raises the chair with both hands and brings it crashing down across the midsection of Niobe, with enough force that Niobe immediately begins yelling and twisting around in pain. Sicko looks to the ring. He sees Addy and The Green both at different points of the ring. Sicko gets in the ring, and he waffles Addy with a steel chair shot, taking the TV champion down and sending her rolling away. The Green, kneeling and trying to rise, doesn't even get out of a seated position and he also gets a chairshot. Then, Sicko throws the chair down, and his eyes fix on one thing and one thing only... The Green's mask that he wears in his entrance. Sicko exits the ring, walking over, and snatching the Omega Championship belt from the time keeper, and he walks over to the ring, and he stares fixedly, unnervingly, at the Green's mask, laying under the ropes. Sicko's hand reaches out, and he picks the mask up as well. Omega Championship in one hand, The Green's mask in the other. He stands over The Green, and he holds The Green's mask in one hand... then, his right hand furtively comes up to his own face, to touch the cracked, old, Halloween clown mask he's wearing over his own face. Sicko's body is shaking, heaving. His fingers touch the edge of his own mask, starting to pull it away, then, he thinks better of it. He stops. Sicko looks down at The Green, holding The Green's mask in his hand, and he kneels, and places it over The Green's face while the Green is still down, and also, drapes the Omega Championship over his chest. Sicko stares daggers at The Green, as the Green is beginning to sit up yet again, otherworldly. The Green holds his mask in his hands, removing it from his face, and staring at Sicko. The Green begins to rise, putting his mask and the Omega title aside and preparing to fight, but Sicko exits the ring over the top rope, and drops to the outside, staring at The Green the whole time! The Green paces around the ring, motioning for Sicko to face him, and The Green foregoes the mask, and all else, going to pick up his axe, and point it at Sicko. Sicko stands next to the ramp, by his ice cream truck, and throws his head back, laughing! Chris Avery: We're seeing two monsters preparing for one of the most brutal matches of their lives at Blast, Billy. Billy: Green looks ready for Sicko, he's daring Sicko to come back down and give it another shot!!
The Green helps Addy to her feet, as he stares at Sicko, who is getting behind the wheel of his ice cream truck.

Doc Holiday & Jonny Cedrone vs. DRAUGR & Cipher
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: We seen Doc and Jonny fight a buncha times, but tonight they're gon' work together!
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: What an entrance, pal!
"Bow down before the one you serve, you're going to get what you deserve... Bow down before the one you serve, you're going to get what you deserve..." As the intro of Head like a Hole by NiN finishes you see Cipher enter through the curtain looking directly at the ring, and avoiding the gaze of the fans in the audience, but he doesn't swipe away the outstretched arms of the fans who paid the good money for the aisle seats. He stops ringside and looks at the ring. Puts his head down and centers himself before he runs forward and slides under the bottom rope and slides into his corner waiting for the match to begin. Billy: Good to see Cipher back in action! He done been through hell at the hands of DRAUGR! Chris Avery: I wonder how they'll be able to function as a team though. Billy: I wonder if ol' DRAUGR is even here, pal.
Cipher turns away from his opponents, looking only to the entrance for his "partner" to make his way out. After a bit of waiting, 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. There is a long, awkward silence and... nobody comes out. Billy: Where is he?!
The lights in the arena return to normal and the music fades. Cipher looks to the referee, who then talks to Ethan Miller at ringside. The referee tells Cipher that DRAUGR isn't here. Chris Avery: What?! Billy: Looks like he's gonna fight Jonny and Doc by himself, pal!
Cipher stands in the middle of the ring, ready to take them both on. Jonny steps forward to kick things off. Billy: This is fun! Cipher is the one who took that Tag Team Title from Jonny back in October!
Doc goes to the ring apron. DING DING DING
Jonny and Cipher meet up in the middle of the ring, just like old times. They exchange strong words before throwing hands. Back and forth they go, equally throwing strikes, until Jonny gets the upper hand. Jonny pushes him back to the ropes with palm strikes before whipping him to the ropes. Jonny steps to the center of the ring, where Cipher drops him with a shoulder tackle. Cipher hits the ropes and Jonny pops to his feet, catching Cipher with a hip toss. Cipher gets to his feet and Jonny goes for another hip toss, but Cipher counts with a hip toss of his own. Cipher brings Jonny up, but Jonny catches him with a jawbreaker. Cipher stumbles back to the corner. Jonny charges in, and Cipher catches him with a back elbow. Cipher turns Jonny into the corner and lights him up with some shoulder thrusts. Cipher whips Jonny to the opposite corner and catches him with a running splash. Jonny drops to a seated position as Cipher runs back out of the corner. He comes in hot with a running dropkick to the seated Jonny. Billy: What a signature maneuver!
Cipher drags Jonny out of the corner. Chris Avery: There's the cover! ONE!
TWO!!
KICKOUT!!!
Doc started to get in the ring to break it up, but Jonny was able to kick out. Cipher brings Jonny up and he whips him to the ropes, but Jonny reverses the whip. On the rebound, Jonny catches Cipher with a jumping high knee. Both men hit the mat and Jonny starts to crawl toward his corner. Cipher does the same. Billy: Where's Cipher goin'? He ain't got a partner!
Chris Avery: Must be muscle memory!
Jonny makes the tag to Doc. Doc gets into the ring and he approaches Cipher, who has now made it to his empty corner. And suddenly... the lights go out. The tron lights up with... When the lights return, the mighty DRAUGR is standing on the ring apron, extending his hand to Cipher. Billy: WHAT THE HELL!?
Cipher gets to his feet, furious at the sight of the mighty DRAUGR. Instead of tagging him, he overhand chops the fuck out of the United States Champion's chest. He steps over the top rope and gets face to face with Cipher, who is not backing down. While this goes down, Doc backs up and converses with Jonny in their corner. DRAUGR turns away to go further in the ring, but Cipher pulls him back. Cipher is met with a devastating headbutt from DRAUGR. Cipher drops to the mat and rolls out of the ring. Billy: SHITFIRE!
When DRAUGR turns around, he is met with a savate kick that rocks him to the nearest corner. Doc obliterates him with a boxing combination before bring him by the back of the neck to the middle of the ring. He hits the ropes and takes DRAUGR down with a diving shoulder block. He gets up and does a hand motion like he's making it rain, and then connects with a running senton. Billy: PAPER CHASE! Chris Avery: THERE'S THE COVER!! ONE!
TWO!!
THR--KICKOUT!!!Doc gets up and he tags in Jonny. Together, they pull DRAUGR up off of the mat. Jonny locks in a standing side choke, but slams DRAUGR to the mat with a space tornado ogawa, still holding onto the side choke. Billy: ONE ARMED BANDIT!!
DRAUGR tries to reach for the ropes, and Doc grabs his arm and locks in a crippler crossface. Billy: MILLION DOLLAR SCREAM!!
The mighty DRAUGR yells out in agony, as Cipher climbs back onto the apron. His instinct is to get in and save his "partner" but instead he just watches with a smile. DRAUGR and Cipher lock eyes as DRAUGR screams out for help. The referee checks on him and-- DRAUGR: ICH GEBE AUF!!! DING DING DING
They release the hold and get to their feet, having the referee raise their arms in victory. Ethan Miller: The winners of this match... Jonny Cedrone and Doc Holiday!
Cipher steps into the ring and he stands over the mighty DRAUGR, placing his boot on DRAUGR's chest as he pushes down. We go to a commercial break...

LET'S HEAR FROM SICKO...
The scene switches to inky blackness, no interviewer, nothing but whatever poor PA was entrusted with a camera, and is documenting their navigation through a deserted, blackened hallway as if in the Blair Witch Project, taking small steps through the darkness determined not to fall and hoping not to run into whatever else might be lurking out there. Instead, finally managing to recall the light on top of the camera, it clicks on, scans the beam around in a wide arc. As the light strikes the surface of the wooden benches and metal lockers, it quickly becomes evident that this is a locker room. The light emanating from the top lamp illuminates something on the floor that must be quite, gauging by the startled cry that the cameraman emits. The shimmering crimson streak that stains the floor in the middle of the beam of light does nothing to conceal its true nature... it's blood. And there seems to be quite a lot of it here in this room, trailing off into the shadows, smeared red droplets on the cold grey tile. The camera tracking upward, and the lighting seizes on a scene of such carnal fright that it's a gotcha moment in an indie horror movie for a second, a nightmarish abattoir frame of reds, blacks, and pale white in the light. Sitting there on a wooden bench, leaning back against the locker behind him, was the silhouetted figure of a monster plucked ripe from the nightmares of any number of schoolchildren. He's bare-chested, divesting himself of his ring attire, but the light of the camera illuminates a plaster, dime-store Halloween mask. Only his cool, unfeeling eyes managed to stare out from underneath its sickening coverage. His fists have unravelled tape, hanging from them. As his chest rose and fell, you could just slightly see his sinister smile. In short, he was a wreck. Part car crash, part train collision. Hunched... coiled... tensed. He beckons our frightened camera-crew closer... but keeping a wide berth, the camera circles him. Trying to zoom in on Sicko without getting too close. Sicko: That's far enough. You don't want to get too deep in here, in the well of the... well, the dragon's lair. Oh, don't mind the blood... and don't worry about where it came from. You're here to record a message, and that's all you're here to do.
He pauses, looking off. The light shines off the sweaty patina of his bald head, and the strap holding the mask in place. He breathes, violently. Sicko: As of late I haven't been doing the talking, because I let the other Aspects, the chatty mouthy ones use this vessel. Because we have a very intricate system... one I'm just now coming to appreciate. But this week... The Green. There will be more to say when the time comes... but for now, I want you to finally be introduced to what you will face very soon. When I return ONE WEEK HENCE... and raze your fucking castle to the last stone.
As they did in the ring, Sicko's fingers dance up to his face, and begin, almost gingerly, softly, touching the edges of his dimestore Halloween mask he's taken to wearing. In the glaring light on top of the camera, with his back turned so you can only see his shadowed profile and the light off of his bald head, you're nearly blinded for a second. Then he begins to pull the mask up. And in a second, he has stripped it off, and you get juuust a second, a nightmarish flash of a gnarled face, aged and lined and with disgusting, greasy paint and foul brownish teeth bared in a snarl, whichever poor camera-crew drew this straw so disturbed at being tasked to get this footage recorded is so startled they yelp. The light atop the camera clicks off, it's better to film this without seeing the entire, ugly face close up. As the camera's light flicks off, his eyes are visible in the dark. Sicko: This is the true face of what I am. I'm not hiding anything. The plaster facade I wear over this is an affectation, an ironic commentary on who you all wish me to be. But you, Green Knight... you believe you've called my bluff, don't you. This week, you confidently stood there, united with Addy A, calling me before your chopping block and expressing the novel, revolutionary idea that I, am just a man. No demons, no avatars of Elder Gods, no supernatural gimmicks... that beneath this mask is a flesh and blood man, quite unlike the monstrous force for arcane and esoteric justice. So this is what you see before you. You see a man.
He leans his head against the lockers behind him, smearing sweat and, from some still indiscernible source, blood that appears black in the low lighting. You can mostly only see his silhouette, and his blazing eyes, slitted with hate. Sicko: But tonight proved also, that you are just as mortal, Green. You wear your own mask to the ring, and you think exposing your face once the bell rings gives you a more steadfast authority to speak on what is, or isn't, human and fallible and easy to be brought to the ground. With my own hands, I humbled you, Green Knight. Remember that. With my own hands, I crushed Vespertine, Jay Best. Tonight, I didn't get the win, because I was paired with Niobe Martin, and we all know how Niobe Martin loves to make an effort. But I did beat Niobe Martin so severely with my own two hands that she'll need to take Vespy up on one of her spa days, and I left you laying on the mat, humbled. I picked your mask up, held it in my hands, and handed it back to you, because I HAVE seen the weak man underneath the armor. And for our clash at the pay-per-view, I'd rather compete with the myth in the mask, than the weak little bitch you proved to be. So, am I human? Did you get your "gotcha"? Or, am I something both much more, and much less, and something that has no interest in being, human? I'll let you be the judge of that as you bask in the glow of a hollow, pyrrhic victory.
He spreads those giant, calloused, bloodied hands, and the camera-crew, now wanting to be assigned to covering war zones rather than this, it's less disgusting, nearly retches at the sight. Sicko: No Aspects, no speaking in other voices. No supernatural tricks. At Blast, you are seeing what I truly am, and it will be the most terrifying sight you could ever have borne witness to. Because it's not who, or what I am, that matters, Green Knight. It's what I'm wanting to become. And what I'm going to make of you.
He reaches a hand up to grip the camera and turn it close up on his shadowed, unmasked face, as his lips peel back from those grotesque teeth in a sneer, speaking to the cameraman now. Sicko: RUN.
He shoves the camera away, in a dizzying circular arc we see pools of blood, and then the cameraman is jogging away, fleeing with the camera held out in front of him. You can hear Sicko's laughter behind him, in the dark, but that's all you can see from this.

Odin Balfore & Muru vs. Teo Blaze & Gerard Angelo Ethan Miller: The following is scheduled for ONE FALL and it is your main event! Chris Avery: It's time for the main event entrances! Billy: Oh boy, I hope this won't be really time consuming and need us to cut to a commercial instead!
It won't, Billy. Sorry. Fully entrances. Ethan Miller: Introducing first...
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 Ethan Miller: From Allen Park, Michigan, he weighs in at 225 lbs... MURU!! Chris Avery: This is a man who has been taking the AW universe by storm, and no one, not even he, expected to be here, in the main event of Clash! Billy: We love to see humble, unassuming guys get shots at the big time! Rags to riches stories and whatnot! Ethan Miller: And his partner...
“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! Ethan Miller: From Houston, Texas... Weighing in at 400 lbs... he is the ALL-FATHER... ODIN BALFORE!!
The fans pop insanely right after as Odin begins to walk down the ramp at a slow an 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. Chris Avery: It's been two weeks since Odin Balfore was given a rematch from Match Madness against Teo Blaze, that ended in an unsatisfying fashion as Gerard Angelo snuck in and cashed in the All-In briefcase, stealing the match and ripping the World title out of his hands, and you just know Odin is in a foul mood and wanting to get his hands on both Angelo and Teo Blaze to take out his frustrations. Billy: You snooze you lost, bud. And for Odin... he........ Snost.... so he lost. It's that simple. Ethan Miller: And their opponents!
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: TeChNiCaLdIfFiCuLtIeS pLeAsEdOnOtAdJuStYoUrSeT
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... TEO BLAZE!! Chris Avery: Teo Blaze is smiling now, but he has been on a roller coaster of emotions lately, from the highs of defending the World Title with honor the last few months, to having Odin Balfore viciously beat him down two weeks ago and leave him ripe for a cash-in from the All-In case. Billy: I can't lie though... a roller coaster of emotions? That sounds fun as shit. Weeeeeeeeee aww I'm sad Odin Balfore beat the fuck out of me weeeeeeeeehehehaaha! Ethan Miller: And his partner...
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 World Heavyweight Championship is draped over his shoulder, the face plate facing the camera. 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 World title 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 the World Heavyweight Champion, the Living Legend, GERARD ANGELO!!
He stops at the ring stairs, slaps the top step before climbing them, and walks to the center of the ring apron. Angelo surveys the arena again to another round of boos, and poses, holding the championship up as pyro explodes 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 title 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, and reluctantly hands the World title to the referee. He removes his sunglasses, placing them neatly in his corner before leaning back against the turnbuckles, mouthing off to the fans as he stretches. Chris Avery: Once again, Gerard Angelo is the man to beat, the AW World Champion, and Billy, I have to ask you, what are the odds that Teo Blaze will be able to put it behind him and work together with a man who screwed him over the way Gerard did? Billy: Is that a rhetorical question? It's not? Well like... they're bad, the chances are just, really, really bad, they hate each other.
Gerard Angelo and Teo Blaze, owing to the bitterness between them due to the state of the World title, are getting in a heated arguement in each other's faces, both of them wanting to be the one that goes first. Across the ring Odin Balfore and Muru, despite not actually liking each other, nonetheless cock a bemused glance at each other, as if Teo and Gerard being unable to get it together will do their work for them? Teo and Angelo, meanwhile, are getting in a finger pointing, shouting match. The referee tries to intervene, telling them they need to start hitting that dusty trail, soooo... Teo huffs, and makes a "whatever" hand motion in Angelo's face. Angelo, satisfied, loses his smug grin and goes red as he sees Odin, he charges across the ring only to have Odin tag Muru into the contest, and he steps on the apron. The crowd boo's intently as Odin steps through the ropes while Muru gets in the ring. Chris Avery: Some mind games being played early on by Odin. Billy: What I can't figure out is why Angelo isn't thanking Odin, Odin demanding a rematch and pummeling Teo until he was half-dead allowed Angelo to cash in the All-In briefcase and become a three-time AW World Champion. Chris Avery: I think Angelo's disdain for everyone that isn't him overrides his sense of gratitude.
The crowd starts to get into the pairing, having seen several thrilling contests between the two, and Angelo puts it out of mind and focuses on the man in front of him. Muru raises the hands, coming in kick to the left, leg. Angelo blocks it, kicking at Muru's stomach in retaliation. A hard european uppercut follows this, with Angelo taking control of the newcomer's wrist to pull him into a shortarm clothesline. With Muru on the mat, Angelo drops an elbow, which Muru sits up to avoid. The "Greatest Showman on Earth" uses his hands to spin himself on the mat and gain the rotation necessary to kick Angelo in the back of the head. Muru rises before Angelo, punching the man in the side of the head as they come to their feet. Muru hits a spinning backfist to rock Angelo's jaw, then turns runs to the ropes but gets stopped with a belly to belly suplex throw from Angelo. Muru rolls over to the ropes, deciding maybe he does want to tag in Odin after all, and the big man looks down at Muru, his eyebrows knits together. Angelo motions for Odin to come on. Odin and Angelo gaze across the ring at each other before they lock up center ring. The much more powerful Odin forces Angelo back into a neutral corner. The referee calls for a clean break before laying the count to Odin who fakes a clean break before sucker punching Angelo in the jaw. The crowd roars with boo's as Odin begins to open up on Angelo with rights and lefts. Odin takes a moment to taunt Teo, berating him and saying that iT wAs A MiStAkE that Teo ever beat him, which turns costly as Angelo comes out of the corner with right hands. Angelo hammers away backing the big man, up towards the center of the ring before bouncing off the ropes looking for a cross body block. Odin catches him in midair before hurling him backwards with a fall away slam. Odin is quickly into the cover hooking the near leg. ONE!
KICKOUT!!
Angelo is out of it as quickly as it started, already rolling over. Odin reaches his feet where he picks up Angelo before taking him back into the ropes. Odin shoots Angelo across the ring with a irish whip, Angelo bounces off the ropes where he runs into a reverse elbow sending him to the mat. Odin looks to follow up with an elbow drop, Angelo rolls out of the way sending Odin into the mat. There's a pop as Angelo reaches his feet where he kicks Odin in the ribs as he reaches all fours. Angelo reaches down picking Odin up before, nailing him with a right hand before taking him over with a snapmare which is followed by a stiff kick across the lower back by Angelo. Angelo picks Odin up off the mat before backing him into the ropes where Teo makes the blind tag to Angelo's back before shooting Odin across the ring. Teo springboards off the top rope as Angelo drops to his chest, Odin bounces off the ropes leaping over Angelo only to be met with a hurricanrana from Teo. The crowd roars as Teo knips up to his feet where he turns and sees Angelo attempting a blind tag back in, and Teo, outraged, points and shouts at Angelo, saying that he isn't going to swoop in and steal another win. The seething dislike between the two "partners" is palpable, and Teo, keeping a hairy eyeball on Gerard, goes to lift the giant Odin back up but a throat thrust uppercut knocks Teo's block off, and sends Teo back into the ropes. Odin looms to to his feet where he takes over with a open handed chop across the chest, the frying pan sized hand dropping Teo to his knees, and Teo groans, holding his chest. Odin backs Teo up against a neutral corner where he laces him across the chest with another open handed chop before shooting Teo across the ring. Teo bounces off the buckles where he ducks under a Odin clothesline on the return. Odin spins around, and he eats a boot to the midsection which doubles the big man over, before being planted into the mat with a DDT! The crowd roars as Teo rolls Odin over executing the cover. ONE!
KICKOUT!!Teo works his way to his feet where he reaches down picking Odin up off the mat. Teo delivers a stiff kick to the right quad followed by a kick to the left quad which is followed up with a spin kick to the chest that sends Odin back to the mat! Teo makes another cover hooking the closest leg. Chris Avery: Out of everyone in this match, Teo Blaze is fighting a war on two fronts, Odin and Muru don't have any issues, but Teo is forced to keep his head on a swivel and keep an eye on Gerard Angelo in case of a double cross, while taking on two competitors that are hungry for momentum going into Blast! Billy: When that crazy bastard Brady Bolt came up with "Oops! All Tag Matches" Clash, you had to know he was going to use it to force some odd couple tandems to get their act together. Chris Avery: Right, or turn on each other and beat each other to death rather than make a tag. Billy: Isn't the real beating each other to death the friends we made along the way? ONE!TWO!!
KICKOUT!!!Odin throws a shoulder up off the mat once more. Teo quickly floats into a rear chin lock. The referee asks Odin to surrender, which he refuses! He begins working his way to his feet where he turns into the chin lock before hoisting Teo up in the air and driving him into the mat with a side suplex. Odin works his way back to his feet. He's in reach for Muru to reach over the top rope and tag himself into the match. The crowd roars, feeling a growing connection to the Greatest Show, and Muru enters the ring where he quickly mounts Teo and begins hammering away with piston like right hands. Muru lands six or seven blows before getting up to a vertical base where he begins booting Teo. Angelo looks to enter the ring where he's cut off by the referee which allows for Odin to enter the ring where he and Muru start putting the boots to Teo. This causes Angelo to try and fight past the referee. Billy: Angelo is doing more damage than good! Get out of the ring! Chris Avery: Surprising to see Muru do some dirty work WITH Odin, I think this kid is realizing he needs to start putting himself in the main event mix!
Odin exits the ring as the referee finally gets Angelo back out to the ring apron. Muru reaches down picking Teo up where he locks a front face lock before pealing off a snap suplex. Muru floats over into the cover hooking the near leg. ONE!
TWO!!
KICKOUT!!!Muru stares, a bit frustrated, at the former World champion, while Gerard Angelo is berating Teo, telling him to get his shit together. Muru, a bit frustrated now, again starts stomping away at Teo before finally reaching down picking him up off the mat, taking him back into the ropes. Muru fires Teo across the ring, Teo bounces off the ropes as Muru ducks his head where he's driven into the mat with a leapfrog into a poisonrana from out of nowhere by Teo! The crowd roars as both Muru and Teo lay on the mat. Angelo is practically begging for the tag as he reaches out. Teo starts to slowly stir before rolling towards his corner where Angelo makes the tag. The crowd roars as Angelo enters the ring where he takes Muru down with a double leg take down. It's Angelo who mounts Muru and now hammers away with right hands. Muru slips out from underneath Angelo with a Matrix like slide, and gives Angelo a shuffle side kick to the temple! The two men are nearly identical in size and body shape, so it's a bit of a struggle to get Angelo to his feet. Muru, goes to whip him to the ropes, he returns into a back elbow, but as that doesn't take the man down, he whips him over with a snapmare. Muru then hits a picture perfect flipping neck whip. Angelo contorts on the mat, gripping at his neck in pain, and Muru makes the lateral press with the leg hook. ONE!
TWO!!
KICKOUT!!!Muru cranks on the head of the champion. The referee asks Angelo to surrender, he refuses before driving several forearms to the ribs of Muru before looking to counter with a side suplex, Muru counters by flipping over Angelo, landing on his feet. Angelo spins around, and he walks into a thumb to the eye to louder boos from the crowd. Muru hammers away with several right hands which backs Angelo up into the corner that houses Odin. Muru distracts the referee which allows Odin to wrap the tag rope around Angelo's throat! Teo enters the ring where he's cut off by the referee. The crowd boos louder as Muru begins hammering away with right hands to the midsection of Angelo while Odin continues choking away at him! Finally Teo, exasperated, exits the ring, Odin removes the rope from around the neck of Angelo before the referee spins back around. Teo says "THANK YOU!" as if everyone is finally seeing the light. Muru goes in with forearms to keep Angelo off of his feet. Angelo starts pushing himself to his knees anyway. Muru lays in with with a european uppercut, then another. However, it appears he tried for one too many, as Angelo intercepts the arm on the last one, spins Muru around in a half circle and nails a desperation inverted DDT. Angelo brings Muru to his feet and sends him into the neutral corner. Following in with a clothesline, Angelo pulls the Playboy from the corner and scoops him onto the shoulder, dropping him across the top rope with a Snake Eyes. The Living Legend leaves Muru wobbling on his feet, taking back to the ropes. Going for a big boot. But as he runs back, Teo, trying to get his shit in, tags Angelo on the back. Chris Avery: Blind tag by Teo!
Angelo turns to his partner with a look of extreme frustration. Teo has a shit eating grin on his face and he motions for Angelo to be, as they say tranquilo, because he can do it better, "In fact why don't you go sit over there" Teo says, and he turns his back on Angelo, who is looking on with an open mouthed, affronted expression. The referee tells Angelo he does after all have to go onto the apron. The dissention between the men is palpable as Teo walks over and begins to stalk his adversary. Teo lifts Muru up to his feet, and begins trying to lift him on his shoulders for a fireman's carry. Angelo holds his arms out, yelling "What the hell are you doing?!" With a confident "I got this" called over to Angelo, Teo runs into the corner, and with Muru on his shoulders he lands a rolling fireman's carry senton, planting Muru down on the mat from a rolling forward position, then he continues him momentum by springing up, leaving Muru prone on the mat and hopping up to the second rope, then flipping BACK across the midsection of Muru right where he'd dropped him before, coming across the midsection with a moonsault. The crowd pops big for Teo's athleticism, and he covers. Chris Avery: Teo is wowing the crowd with his lucha arsenal, but Angelo is pissed off that Teo is trying to upstage him! Billy: Hehehe they really don't like each other, we love soap opera! ONE!
TWO!!
NOOO!!!Odin roars in, stomping on Teo, breaking the pin. The referee sends Odin out of the ring, and Teo, complaining and holding the back of his head, yells at the referee to get that big ape out of there. Then, Teo turns to Muru, locking in a calf slicer submission. Muru's eyes bug out as Teo pulls back on the leg, yelling for him to tap. The referee asks Muru if he gives up, but Muru refuses. Suddenly, there is a commotion outside, as it appears that Odin is trying to get the referee's notice and break his focus on the submission. The Allfather kicks the steps, and yells and rants. The referee does stop checking on Muru, and Teo even slackens the calf crusher submission, craning his head over to see what's going on. At that moment, Muru slithers over and grabs the bottom rope, hanging on for dear life. Teo snarls, annoyed that Odin's tantruming cost him something good, rubs the back of his head, scouting Muru when he is blind tagged, a bit forcefully, by his partner. Angelo gets in the ring, pushing Teo off and telling him "Why don't you go sit down over there" as a call-back to a few minutes ago. Teo looks just as affronted as Angelo had, but Teo goes back to the apron, and Angelo stalks Muru who is trying to use the ropes to pick his way up. Angelo hammers away at Muru before finally reaching his feet. Angelo reaches down picking Muru up where he takes him back into a neutral corner with a blatant choke hold. Chris Avery: Now we're seeing a more aggressive side of Angelo!! Billy: I think this whole night has been very trying for many people, emotionally.
The referee begins laying the five count to Angelo for a disqualification. At, say, four, Angelo releases the hold, and he motions for Muru to get up, then he begins doing the "director" taunt by framing his hands around Muru as the Greatest Show starts gingerly getting to his feet. Angelo frames his snapshot, then rolls his arm a few times to get ready... then uncorks a devastating roaring elbow, which drops Muru in his tracks. Angelo grins, going for a cover... Chris Avery: HERO'S WELCOME! THE CHAMPION MIGHT HAVE THIS!! ONE!
TWO!!
THR--NOOO!!!Again, Odin dives in and axehandles Angelo to save the day for his team. The crowd boos heavily. Angelo struggles to get up as Odin assaults him with a whirlwind of punches and stomps, but Angelo gets to his full height and throws Odin by the back of his head over the top rope, spilling Odin outside to the aisle with a lot of force. As he does this, Teo reaches in and tags Angelo again, getting into the ring and innocently telling him that he can take five. Angelo, having had enough of Teo's showboating and trying to get the glory, turns on his partner, his face getting red. "Are you even trying to win" Angelo explodes at him, and Teo, his facade of cooperative partnership slipping, says that he'd rather watch Sicko deep throat a frozen banana than ever let Angelo take the glory for this match. Teo shoves Angelo. Angelo, not budged by the smaller man, looks off into the distance, and you can see him weighing the options and trying to cool things down, but Teo's temperature is rising. Teo gives him another shove. Angelo has had enough of Teo's shoving and their infuriating, forced coexistence. Angelo shoves Teo hard enough to push him back to the ropes, and he gives Teo... Double middle fingers! Angelo then gets out of the ring, holding his hands out and his eyebrows raised at Teo, as if to say "Yep that just happened". Teo watches with an open mouthed, irritated expression. Teo looks at the ref, asking "You seeing this shit" and he blows it off, going to lift Muru up and continue doing his part in the match. Muru has taken advantage of the drama bomb between Angelo and Teo to recover, though, and as Teo goes to lift him up Muru catches him with a jawbreaker, sending Teo's head whiplashing back. Muru tucks his head in and gives him a DDT. Muru runs to the ropes, and hops up to unleash a beautiful corkscrew moonsault, lading across the chest of Teo! Muru covers. The referee turns to see the pin, and drops down. ONE!
TWO!!
THR--KICKOUT!!!Angelo is watching from the outside, because damn, he does like watching Teo get pummelled after all, and he smiles and points at Muru, but then suddenly Odin comes from behind and clubs him over the back of the head. Odin hasn't forgotten the way Angelo swooped in and cashed in on him, stealing his moment in the spotlight and the World Title away from him, and is now attacking Angelo with a vengeance! He slams Angelo's head off the apron a few times and gives him a few loaded punches. Muru takes a breather in the ring, pulling Teo up and giving him an elbow stamp to the back of the neck a few times. He lifts the former World champ up and decimates him with a snap swinging neckbreaker, then covers... Chris Avery: AROUND THE WORLD BY MURU!! Billy: And that ain't a mid Red Hot Chili Peppers single, that's a real pain in the neck!! ONE! TWO!!
THR--KICKOUT!!!
Muru looks absolutely shocked and questioning what he has to do, and looks out to check on what Odin is doing. Odin is bouncing Angelo's head off the announce table. Billy (shrieking): Get them away, get them away!
Muru gets to his feet and walks over to the ropes, slipping out onto the apron and gripping the top rope as he stares at the prone Teo. He ascends to the top rope, and comes off with an amazing elevation double knee drop, plowing into Teo's ribcage. Muru pushes Teo over, certain of a cover now. Chris Avery: KNEED TO KNOW BASIS ON TEO IN THERE, ODIN IS BATTERING ANGELO ALL OVER OUR TABLE RIGHT HERE! Billy: I DISLIKE CHAOTIC SETTINGS! I WANT TO BE SITTING IN A BABBLING STREAM!! ONE!
TWO!!
THR--KICKOUT!!!Muru looks on in shock as he sits up, questioning his entire life and what he needs to do to pick up the win for his team. He looks shell-shocked, a thousand yard stare on his face, as he turns to the referee and asks if it was three. On the outside, Angelo finally recovers from Odin's attack enough that when Odin turns around from ripping monitors and cords out of the announce table he is met by an roaring elbow to the mush from Angelo that sends him faltering and skipping backwards. Angelo then grabs Odin from behind and lifts him up with a back suplex, haphazardly depositing Odin on the announce table himself. Odin flings like a rag doll. Back in the ring, Muru endeavors to lift Teo up, and he begins setting up for the Final Cut backbreaker/neckbreaker, aka the Spilt Milk... however, Teo spins out of it, Muru turns... and Teo DESTROYS him with a spinning back kick to the head! Chris Avery: OHH! HABANERO HURRICANE! OUT OF NOWHERE!!
Exhausted, Teo, drops down, laying his shoulders across Muru's chest... ONE!
TWO!!
THR--KICKOUT!!!
Teo is holding his midsection, in a lot of pain, and seeing Angelo coming back in because he DOES wanna win this match, after, he is the World Champion, and Angelo is getting to his corner and grabbing the tag rope, presenting his hand for his partner. Meanwhile, Odin, holding his neck and dazed, stumbles over to his corner and begins climbing up, while Muru and Teo both are down on the mat, and slowly crawl towards their corners. Muru leaps out making the tag to Odin! The man beast enters the ring where he picks Teo up off the mat, hoisting him up in the air with the military press. Odin holds Teo up in the air for several moments before letting him fall. Teo bounces up off the mat and he is peeled off the mat by Odin, who walks a spaghetti limbed Teo around before hoisting him up onto his shoulders and flinging him down full force with a high angle carryover spinebuster. Odin sinks down and puts a hand on Teo's chest for the pin. Chris Avery: ODIN WITH THE ENFORCER! THE ALL-FATHER IS GETTING SOME REVENGE ON TEO FOR MATCH MADNESS! Billy: Man, he's got to let that go, goosfraba, baby. ONE!
TWO!!
THR--NOOO!!!Angelo breaks it up. Odin holds the back of his head, snarling and shouting at the ref to get that piece of trash (i.e. the AW World champion) out of here, and Gerard and Odin exchange some very blue choice words. The referee gets in Angelo's way, but Angelo continues talking shit as only he can. Teo is laid out lifeless or possibly dead, and Odin has him by one arm but is concentrated on Angelo, taunting him sammore. Finally, the ref makes Angelo get in his corner, where he should be getting tagged. Odin reaches down, picking Teo up off the mat where he hammers away with a right hand that rocks Teo back into the ropes. Odin comes forward, shooting Teo across the ring. Teo bounces off the ropes and into a boot to the midsection by Odin which sends him slumping over. Odin cinches Teo in position for a high angle powerbomb! He hoists Teo up in the air only it's Teo who counters by using his momentum to flip over Odin and land on his feet! Odin spins around, as Teo springboards off the ropes... the crowd roars as both men crash to the canvas as Teo TAKES THE BIG MAN DOWN WITH A SPRINGBOARD CUTTER!! Chris Avery: ODIN CALLIN FOR THE MARK OF ODIN..... NO!! TEO ESCAPES!! TEO GETS ALLLLLLL OF THAT PSYCHOGUN!!
The referee starts laying the count to both men. 1... 2... 3... both men are starting to shake the cobwebs out... 4... 5... Teo is starting to try and push himself up... 6... Teo is crawling on his elbows... 7... Teo manages to roll over getting his arm over the chest of Odin! ONE!
TWO!!
THR--KICKOUT!!!
Teo rolls onto his back, utterly spent and in disbelief, sweat running down his face. Billy: Man, if Teo had beaten Odin here tonight, I think Odin would have beaten Teo to death behind the parking lot of a Chili's in Astoria.
Teo blinks and has to take a breather for a moment, on his hands and knees, body spasming, but he grits his teeth and pushes his way up. Meanwhile, Odin rolls to his side of the ring, and surreptitiously, tags Muru on the calf. Muru looks around, shocked, as his partner has just tagged him in and the referee sees it. Muru, frustrated, turns to Odin and begins venting all of his anger at his own partner for not practicing good teamwork. While Muru is distracted by Odin, Teo is getting to his feet in his corner, but his back is to Gerard. Taking advantage of Teo sizing up Muru, Angelo blind tags his way in, shoots into the ring, and chop blocks Muru down savagely. Odin stares in disbelief from the floor, as Angelo then runs off the ropes and curb stomps Muru down hard. Teo is also in disbelief, as this all happened in about six seconds. Angelo nods his head, grinning widely. Billy: WHAT A HOLLYWOOD ENDING!
Chris Avery: NO! ANGELO IS STEALING ANOTHER WIN!!d
Angelo rolls Muru over and covers him, hooking the leg. ONE!
TWO!!
THREE!!!DING DING DING Chris Avery: This one is over! Muru held his own in there with some of the best in Action Wrestling history! Billy: And if he can keep that momentum going, we could see a new World Champion at Blast!
Angelo gets up and he is handed the World Championship. He holds it proudly over his head, taunting both Teo and Odin, who is now seated in his corner. This is the last thing we see before...

CLOSING TIME
We go to a press conference backstage, where Brady Bolt is wearing a shirt to advertise AW Blast from the Coleman Coliseum in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. Brady Bolt: Thanks for joining me. I'll keep this short so you all can get home safe. Coming up next is AW Blast from the Coleman Coliseum in Tuscaloosa, Alabama.
I just said that. Brady Bolt: There will be seven huge matches that night! You already know the main event. Gerard Angelo will defend the World Championship in a fatal four way match against former champions Teo Blaze and Odin Balfore, as well as newcomer Muru! What a ride that whole thing has been. Right? First it was Teo against Muru. Then Gerard cashed in his All-In briefcase and won the title again. Then I went and made it a four way! Wowsers!
Okay, so there's another multi-person title match that I am excited to announce! Addy A's reign as Television Champion will be put to the test in a Ladder Match! Her challengers will be Jacob Koenig, Super Mario, Jay Best, and Niobe Martin! This is every person for themselves and I can't wait to see who will rise to the occasion!
After a great deal of torment, The New Brotherhood are free and ready to defend the Tag Team Championship against Ozone Dynasty Duo! I'm wondering how that team will work together, now that the darkness has returned to the mighty DRAUGR. Oh, that's not the only tag team match! eNVy will defend the Cruiserweight Tag Team Championship against TJ Alexander and Jaice Wilds in a Falls Count Anywhere Match!
Another huge title match that you already know about is The Green defending the Omega Championship against Sicko! That's going to get brutal, and we've doubled the medical personnel on hand for the night. If you noticed there's no United States Championship on the show, you're pretty observant. The champion DRAUGR is tied up in the tag team match, but contendership for his title will be up for grabs when Jessie Lee takes on Jody Madrox!
Last, but certainly not least, the finals of the Road to Havoc Tournament takes place as Jonny Cedrone and Doc Holiday battle once again! I am going to add a special stipulation to this match, too. This will be the final singles match between Holiday and Cedrone. Call it a final battle if you will. These men have had classic battles in the past but this is the last time! The winner of this match also secures the final entrance in the Havoc Rumble!
Well, that's all I've got for you tonight, folks! See ya at Blast!Fade to...
