Matthias Mintzel & Cormack MacNeill Evolution 3
11th May - Monday Night Clash Matthias Mintzel runs in the ring after Cormack MacNeill has beaten Jay Omega and starts attacking MacNeill viciously with a chair. He grabs MacNeill’s right leg and wraps the chair around it and jumps two feet into it, the entirety of Mintzel’s weight comes down on it. MacNeill writhes around in pain holding the knee. Mintzel stares at him, and absolute fury in his eyes. Matthias Mintzel: I’m trying to help you Cormack… Quit Again… Leave now, look after your body. Make tonight your last match.Billy: That’s the knee MacNeill has had trouble with. This is just plain nastly, what the hell provoked this?18th May - Monday Night Clash Matthias Mintzel is on the microphone having just put local competitor Jimmy Georgia into an ambulance. Matthias Mintzel: This business chews you up and spits you out. No one gets to the top and stays there.
Some people think me and Cormack MacNeill were similar. We’re a similar age, we’re past our prime in terms of what you idiots would think of as a prime and we’re tough. But we’re nothing alike. Cormack wanted to be here. He thinks this is his home, he learnt his lesson years ago and he forgot it. He thought he wanted another crack at wrestling, another shot at the glory he never had in his long failure of a career the first time round. The lights are blinding for some fools, I get that, but Cormack after what I did to you last week you’ll not walk for months. That’s plenty of time to sort out your head and decide on another path, I sincerely wish you the best and if you’re lucky then…Cormack’s entrance music hits! Matthias looks concerned for a while but there’s no sign of Cormack. Matthias Mintzel: Wherever you are Cormack, stay there… Leave me alone now, for your own sake.Billy: Cormack MacNeill is someone you’d think is as tough as he is but after the beating he took last week he was nowhere to be seen, and can you blame him?Chris Avery: Mintzel is on a warpath, I’m not getting in his way that’s for sure.25th May - Monday Night Clash Cormack MacNeill is in the ring on crutches. Cormack MacNeill: Matthias Mintzel! You think taking liberties with the up and comers makes you a tough guy? Think hitting me with a cheap shot makes you a badass?
You're just a coward. Taking the easy way out. You dont have the guts to square up with a real tough guy.
You know what a badass is Mintzel?
A badass is the guy standing here on one leg calling your ass out!
You, me, Evo 3. Face me in the ring at Evo.
If you've got the guts, face me in the ring right now!Matthias Mintzel walks out to the top of the ramp with a microphone. Matthias Mintzel: Do I have the guts to get into the ring with a one legged man? Yes Cormack, of course I do.
I’ll make you a deal Cormack, if you can get your beat up body to Evolution and get into the ring, I’ll teach that lesson to you again.Matthias kicks away Cormack’s left crutch and punches him in the face but Cormack counters, launching a right hook to the ribs and knocking Mintzel off balance from the power. Matthias begins to backpedal as MacNeill follows it up with several more body hooks, each one lifting him off the ground a little. Billy: Those punches are landing hard!MacNeill shoots Matthias off the ropes, setting him up for the Stone of Kings spinebuster. Mintzel grabs the far rope and stops his momentum before bailing out of the ring. Matthias backs up the ramp, still clutching his ribs and staring at MacNeill. Billy: We know Cormack is tough, I wonder if Matthias Mintzel has underestimated him completely!Chris Avery: I think so! One leg and he’s still got a lot of fight in him, looks like Mintzel made a mistake not taking both knees out!
We are now in 2 separate dark rooms and the camera alternates between each. On similar looking chairs sit Matthias Mintzel and Cormack MacNeill who both stare into the camera. Mintzel’s ribs are heavily taped after the beating he took from MacNeill the week before. MacNeill’s leg still has a lot of strapping on it for support. Matthias Mintzel: You’ve made a mistake Cormack. I was trying to help you and you’ve thrown it back into my face. It was never about you, but you’ve made it personal now.
You think these bruised ribs justify your choice to return to the ring? You got lucky once, you caught me off guard. You can still punch, you’ll take that to the grave with you but that’s not enough. You’re lucky you can still walk, it’s only a matter of time until you can’t.Cormack MacNeill: You came in unannounced. Took out my knee. Have to give you credit. You did your homework.
Whoever told you to take out my knee forgot to tell you something.
You can knock me down, you can injure me. But keeping me down is different story.Matthias Mintzel: I’ve tried to talk sense into you these last few weeks and you’ve chosen to ignore me. I won’t think any less of you if you don’t show at Evo 3, but if you do, I’ll have to beat the sense into you instead.At this point bagpipe music starts to play Cormack MacNeill: You've had your chance. You've done your dance.Now it's time to pay the piper.

Jacqui Monroe vs. Scott Slayer
The arena turns black with white strobe lights. Red smoke smoke fills the arena. As the song, Me Against The World by Simple Plan plays, Scott Slayer appears on the stage with his wrestling attire, and a hoodie on. As the chorus plays he kneels on the stage. Adilene Floyd: First, making his way to the ring from Detroit, Michigan and weighing 225 pounds Scott Slayer!When the beat drops and the song plays throughout the arena Scott Slayer walks in a showboating nature to the ring. He high fives fans on his way to the ring. He steps in the ring, and blue pyro erupts from the corners as the second chorus plays. Billy: Slayer could do with a win tonight.Chris Avery: He's my favourite wrestler in Action Wrestling who's initials are SS, after Stuart Slane of course.Arch Enemy's 'We Will Rise' blares through the speakers, as Jacqui M appears on the platform, devil horns in the air. As she begins to walk down the entrance way, the blonde allows herself a moment to headbang to her entrance tune, before making her way down to the ring. Adilene Floyd: And his opponent, weighing 150 pounds, from Tokyo, Japan… Jacqui Monroe!Billy: Jacqui destroyed Kagura Yamamoto last week.Chris Avery: I have a feeling Slayer’s going to put up much more of a fight this week, there’s something in the air tonight, I think this is gonna be a cracking match.She enters it without much of a fuss, sheds her leather jacket, and waits for the bell to ring. The bell rings. Jacqui springs out from the corner with a running big boot and follows it up with a clothesline from hell. She grabs Slayer from behind and hits him with a big release German suplex! Slayer rolls out of the ring. Billy: That was the same sequence as Jacqui won with last week!Chris Avery: As I said though, Slayer far too sharp to let that end the match this time, he clearly kept that in his memory and was ready for it.Jacqui shrugs, never quite expecting the same trick to work twice in a row. She backs off as Scott Slayer recovers from the fast start and crawls back into the ring, effectively resetting the match. They tentatively eye each other up and engage one another. Slayer forces Jacqui into a corner and aims an elbow at her head but she quickly dodges it and escapes to the middle of the ring. She jumps up and hits Slayer with a knee which knocks him over. She continues the assault as he’s on the floor, kicking him in the stomach and the head. He tried to defend himself but Jacqui keeps the assault going. Billy: Jacqui is riding the crest of a wave at the moment.Chris Avery: Slayer is under pressure early.Slayer manages to grab Monroe’s foot and pulls her to the ground. They both get up but this time Slayer is able to knock Monroe down with a shoulder block. He grimaces in pain from the initial exchanges but picks up Jacqui purposefully. He attempts to pick her up for a slam of some sort but Monroe escapes and hits a spinning heel kick. Monroe turns the body of Slayer into his front and locks in a camel clutch. The strong Slayer tries to break out of it as Jacquie tries to keep it locked in effectively. Slayer manages to force himself off the floor, reducing Monroe’s leverage but Monroe recognises this and quickly releases the hold but only briefly in order to apply an armbar! Slayer growls in some discomfort but is fit enough to continue trying to fight Monroe off. He again manages to get himself off the ground so his back is not flush to the mat and gets his left arm free, he tries to prize Monroe’s legs from the hold but is unable to do so, instead he starts to use the free arm to pull himself towards the rope. Despite Jacqui’s best efforts he’s able to do so and eventually gets himself to the rope and breaks the hold. Billy: Slayer is fighting hard but Monroe really is not letting him settle.Chris Avery: Imagine how tough it must be to take on Jacquie Monroe when she’s in a mood like this.Jacqui continues the assault with some more kicks. With Slayer’s body near a turnbuckle she goes to the corner and seems to ponder what to do next with him hanging tough despite her fast start. She faces away from Slayer and attempts a corner slingshot splash but Slayer gets his knees up! Billy: She just can’t get enough on that move!Chris Avery: Did she force that a bit? Maybe a bit impatient at how hard Slayer was to put away.Slayer senses this might be his opportunity to take advantage of and gets to his feet despite the pain he’s in Monroe starts to make her way to her feet but Slayer is ready and clubs her back to the ground. He picks her up, grabs her and hits an explosive German Suplex. He picks her up and this time applies a bear hug. Monroe tries to break free of the much larger Slayer but isn’t able to. Slayer crushes her for 20 seconds or so, drawing the air from her lungs until he can feel her strength reduce, and then hits another belly to belly. He attempts a cover: 1… 2… Monroe kicks out Billy: Slayer taking the physical approach.Slayer wastes no time continuing the assault. He picks up Jacqui, throws her into the ropes and hits a death valley driver! 1… 2… NO! Monroe kicks out again! Chris Avery: Talk about stand and deliver!Billy: That move can win matches but it’s not enough to put Jacqui Monroe away this week! One of them has to figure out how to put the other away.Chris Avery: It’s a case of making your mind up, committing to something and getting that win.Slayer can’t quite believe that wasn’t enough to put Monroe away and in his disbelief hesitates for just half a second and is rolled up in a small package! 1… 2… Slayer kicks out! Billy: Jacqui nearly stole it!Jacqui jumps to her feet despite the offence she’s taken and so does Slayer who’s looking fired up at not having been able to pick up the win despite hitting a signature move. Monroe tries to hit her superkick finisher but Slayer is alert and gets out of the way. Jacqui’s momentum takes her past Scott who sees the opportunity and grabs Monroe for Excalibur but she also senses the danger and slips out of the hold. The 2 competitors stand in the centre of the ring. Slayer punches Monroe who reels backwards but then comes back twice as hard with a huge right hand of her own. Slayer staggers backwards into the ropes, Monroe doesn’t hesitate and hits him with a lariat and they both tumble out of the ring and hit the floor hard. The referee starts to count. 1… 2… 3… 4… Both competitors are starting to stir. 5… 6… 7… 8.. Both have struggled to their feet. 9… Both slide into the ring together. They again both start to slowly make their way to their feet in the ring. Jacqui is to her feet first and attempts another superkick. AND THIS TIME CONNECTS! 1… 2… 3!!!!!! Billy: That’s it, Monroe wins again.Chris Avery: Pushed a bit more by Scott Slayer but she’s the one that’s got over the line!Billy: Can this be the start of some real momentum for Jacqui Monroe? She’s definitely good enough!

William Moor vs Bonnie Blue Hype Segment
The scene opens inside an oak panelled study. Beethoven’s symphony number seven, second movement: the allegretto plays softly in the background as a large leather bound chair swivels round. JOHN RABID, the husband of Bonnie Blue, sits calmly. A long mane of blonde hair flows down his muscular back as the ripper adjusts the Windsor knotted tie of his pristine suit. Rabid leans forward, manicured fingers locking together in prayer as they hunch over an antique desk. The ripper is poised to speak, but first he takes a heavy breath before addressing the camera as a glint of malevolence ignites in his deep blue, almost angelic eyes. John Rabid: It’s been awhile, Wade. Not so long ago me, you and Jared Holmes, were the cornerstone of #beachkrew. It’s leaders during its absolute heyday. No force in professional wrestling history was as dominant as us! Not even the inferior bastard AW copy with that flop Lockheart could match us. We were unstoppable! We had a bond! And even when at times we wanted to kill each other? That bond remained solvent. It remained steadfast and true.
Until now.
Now? Now those days are over.Rabid sighs, we see a flash of razor sharp teeth as he snarls. John Rabid: You ripped the heart out of our friendship, Wade. You betrayed me and the trust we had. That was a mistake. And with me and Bonnie? You only get one of those. You’re a fool Wade, don’t you realise that you signed your own death sentence when you attacked MY WIFE?Rabid slams his fist down on the desk. His eyes turn ink black for a microsecond with absolute, all consuming rage. John Rabid: At Evolution 3 on June 14th, there will be no mercy for you. You ripped my heart out, Wade with your betrayal. Now Bonnie will rip your throat out as a receipt..."William" while I’ll observe, and smile and enjoy the spectacle. You should see her work, she’s a real scalpel when she goes to town. She enjoys the slow kill. Savours it. Lives for it. Let’s hope the 72 thousand in attendance watch your demise with the same joyous buzz she’ll receive...
After all, It would be such a shame if your death was wasted on them, wouldn’t it? All that screaming and blood just for an arena of stunned silence. Might even seem anticlimactic as they drag your carcass into the body bag…”fucboi”.
Enjoy your last precious days. Make peace with your deep sea gods. Because Bonnie Blue is coming.
And your world is about to turn RED.
Good Day.

The US Champion Segment #2
Kevin Bishop is walking backstage with his usual scowl on his face. He stops and grabs one of the production guys and pulls him aside. Kevin Bishop: I understand that Wesley has been seen in the area?Red Shirt 1: Ye...ye...yes he has Sir Death...errr Mister Bishop.Bishop holds up his hand. Kevin Bishop: Shut up. Tell me where you have seen him.Red Shirt 1: I saw him head over to the men's locker room area.Bishop nods and as the guy turns away, Bishop spins and hits The Black Out on the poor guy and he goes head first into the wall and crumples. Billy: SHITFIRE!Chris Avery: What a despicable man he is! That was Jimmy, the guy that...umm..Billy: Jimmy brings me my Lamb Tacos from catering!Bishop walks over towards the men's locker rooms and enters, to find Wesley bending down into his locker and pulling out something. Since his back is turned, Wesley has no idea that Bishop is lurking. Billy: This is bad Chris!Chris Avery: You are right Billy! Bishop has his sights deadlocked on the man that is our US Champion and looks like he is trying to make a play for a one on one at Evo against Bull.Billy: Turn around Wesley!Wesley turns and Bishop hits a Black Out. Wesley crashes to the ground and smiles that devils smile. He reaches into the locker of Wesley and pulls out the US title...only to find it is a fake that reads across the face plate “You are an idiot”. Billy: What the?!Chris Avery: I don’t know what to say..Bishop looks down and he discovers that the Wesley on the floor is in fact not Wesley but a man dressed like him. Bishop angrily throws the fake US title and starts to kick the man on the ground. Bishop lowers himself and looks at the mans pain filled face. Kevin Bishop: Find your master and tell him that Creeping Death is coming for him tonight!Bishop stands and walks away as the camera stays trained on the injured man. Chris Avery: First Bull and now Bishop, what is going on around here!Billy: I don’t know, but it's about to get hotter in here then my Deep South Cajun BBQ Sauce, available on ActionWrestling.com!Chris Avery: We will be right back, cheap plugs and all!

Mystery Segment
Just as the Monday Night Clash was about to cut to commercial, the screen abruptly turns black. After a few moments sixteen words appear on screen as if they were branded there by an unknown force. As the world falls; wider grows disaster's maw Desperate the thralls call; thee three crows caw After several seconds of lingering the words faded out; allowing the screen to become black once more. However, a curious thing happened before Action Wrestling completely went to commercial. The unmistakable call of a crow rang out once. Rang out twice. Yet, instead of a third time, there was an abrupt change that was both strangely familiar as it was distinctly foreign; the wail of a Banshee.

Graham Baker, Noris Cranley, Carter Shaw Segment Billy: I’m being told that we are sending the feed to the backroom, where Nate Burleson is standing by!Chris Avery: I hope everything’s okay. We’ve seen too many shenanigans, especially on the go-home show to Evolution III!Right on cue, the cameras cut to the backstage hallway where Nate Burleson is adjusting his tie with a wide smile on his face. He nods his head and holds the microphone up to his lips after receiving the cue to begin the introduction. Nate Burleson: Thanks Billy, San Antonio is ROCKIN’ tonight on this Super-Show go-home edition of Monday Night Clash. Evolution is right around the corner and I’m standing beside a man who will be partaking in that very event. Ladies and gentlemen...Carter Shaw.The crowd pops loudly as the camera pans out a bit to reveal Carter Shaw standing beside him. The two men look eye to eye, Nate extending a fist that Shaw bumps with one of his own. Nate Burleson: Carter, you and Noris Cranley won a tag match last week that surprisingly earned you BOTH a spot in the Television Title match at Evolution. What are your thoughts on that surprise reward last week?Carter Shaw: Well, I feel nothing short of honored, Nate. A few months into my AW career, and I get to stand here and tell you that I’ll be gunning for my first chunk of gold on the biggest stage of the year. It doesn’t get much better than that.San Antonio responds in a positive reaction of mild cheers to support Carter Shaw’s biggest match of his career as of this date. Nate Burleson: Graham Baker, our current Television Champion, defends that belt later on tonight against Azurine Vebbins. So while Noris Cranley and yourself have your spots locked in, it is yet to be official who exactly will be defending that TV Title against the two of you. Preference on who comes out on top tonight?Carter Shaw: You know the answer to that, Nate, come on now. It doesn’t matter. I know the one man I’m preparing for no matter what, and the third? I’m preparing for Baker as long as that strap is on his shoulder. If Vebbins gets the job done tonight? Then all I’m doing is watching a different set of tape and adjusting. I don’t care who is walking into Evolution with that Television Title. My training and my focus are on making sure that I get to walk out with it.Nate Burleson: Aight, I see you, big man. Now let’s go ahead and address the elephant in the room, shall we? Last week, after yet another win as a tag team, you and Noris Cranley had a bit of a falling out over the end of that match. Let’s take a look…The screen is overtaken with a quick replay of last week’s Clash, Noris Cranley reaching in and slapping Shaw on the back for the tag. Cranley rushes in and nails The Reset on Geri Vayden to get the pinfall victory. As Cranley celebrates around the ring, Shaw simply stares him down. Noris goes for a high five, to which Shaw simply shakes his head and walks away. The screen cuts back to Nate and Carter. Nate Burleson: So you left your boy hangin’ there, but it was pretty clear you didn’t like the sudden adjusted attitude Cranley was showing there. He tagged himself in for that win. But it was still a win. Then, backstage, this happened…The screen is overtaken once more, this time showing Noris Cranley slap Carter Shaw across the face after some harsh words were exchanged. Shaw then rips a fist across Cranley’s head, knocking him down and out. Again, we cut back live to Nate and Shaw. Nate Burleson: Clearly there is tension between you two, after what could have been the start of a dynamite tag team here in AW. Where do you think it all went wrong?Carter Shaw: It’s pretty clear, especially watching it back again. Look, I thought there was something there. Two weeks in a row, Cranley and I tore it up together. Two guys looking to rise through the ranks and make an impact. We won, and honestly, when you look at the quality of the competition, there’s no disputing that we were making our way through some of AW’s best. But we didn’t communicate much throughout those weeks. Maybe if we did? I would’ve seen that there was no way this little ‘partnership’ was gonna work out.Nate Burleson: And why do you say that?Carter Shaw: The way that matches ended last week? Sums up all you need to know about Noris Cranley. It’s not even that I have any problem whatsoever with him wanting to get in the match to get that pinfall. It’s the fact that, at the flip of a switch, it stopped being about the TEAM, and it started being about him. He disrespected me and he disrespected what we could have been by making it self-centered. That’s not cool with me. Respect gets respect. Guess what disrespect gets…?Voice: Being snuffed in the face right?Both Nate and Shaw’s heads turn towards the voice, coming from a distance down the hall. Noris Cranley is walking quickly down the hall and gets directly in the frame of the camera, immediately placing himself between Burleson and Shaw. Nate immediately stands a few feet away from the scene due to the tension between their staredown. San Antonio’s audience becomes more intrigued at the two really letting their emotions go through simple glares and body gestures. Noris Cranley: Carter Shaw! The man who punched Noris Cranley in the face and now everyone’s been replaying the moment ever since it went viral. You must feel very entitled and high of yourself on this whole ‘White Lotus’ wisdom. Let me tell you something. For someone who practices in mixed martial arts, you hit like a bitch!Chris Avery: Noris?!Billy: Snuff him again Carter!The crowd’s ‘ooo’s’ are audible in the backstage area, as Shaw’s eyebrows draw downward. The two stare at each other intensely. Carter rolls his eyes and shakes his head towards him with the intention of disappointment. Carter Shaw: You need to grow the fuck up, Noris.Noris Cranley: Really? Is this coming from someone who suckered punch me? Well, I’d like to see you try. I’m in your face Shaw, punch me now!Carter Shaw: Quit puffing your chest out. Trying to look tough doesn’t work on you.Noris shoves Shaw with both hands causing Carter to take a few steps back. Nate steps back even more concerned especially when Shaw’s ready to lay it on him. Nate Burleson: Oh shit, ya’ll got this?!He motions over to a couple of security guards in the hallway. Shaw reaches out and shoves Cranley right back, sending him several feet back. Cranley gets right back up in Shaw’s face, the two now extremely heated as they are about to come to blows. Just as each man cocks back, about to let fists fly, the guards come in and force their way in-between them. Several referees start to flood the area too, both men being grabbed and pulled backward Billy: DAMMIT! I WANTED TO SEE THEM FIGHT!Noris Cranley: Come on Shaw, LET’S GO!Shaw snarls as he tries to launch forward from the grips on him. Cranley is doing the same, but soon enough there are at least multiple security guards protecting them from each other. Billy: How quickly things can change. We’re watching two men want to kill each other...when just in the last couple weeks we thought we had a rising tag team on our hands.Chris Avery: Cranley and Shaw have the stamina for days, Billy...if these refs think they can keep holding them back from each other, they might have to be here for days.Shaw manages to get a few steps in towards Cranley, almost in striking distance if he were to get a hand free. Carter Shaw: You ain’t gettin’ by me at Evolution. Imma put you in the backseat where you belong.Just as Shaw finishes his last word, a steel chair comes swinging from behind the camera, cracking his flat on the top of the skull. He crumples backward into the men who have been restraining him. The camera once steadied, shoots up to show us Graham Baker. Billy: SHITFIRE, Graham Baker! He just drilled Carter Shaw with a chair!Cranley looks down, shocked at the now laid out Shaw. Still being held back by personnel, nobody is able to react fast enough as Baker lifts the chair over his shoulder like a slugger and THWOMPS Cranley directly in the face, the impact from the shot sending him AND the personnel that was holding him back to the floor. Chris Avery: Jesus! Graham Baker just came in and wiped BOTH Cranley and Shaw out.Billy: I can’t believe it! The Television Champ has a defense later tonight, and he’s already wiping out his potential Evolution opponents!All eyes raise to Graham Baker, as the men who were restraining both Cranley and Shaw are now trying to tend to them. Baker doesn’t say a word, as his eyes roam from Cranley to Shaw before slowly raising his AW Television championship above his head. Chris Avery: Someone gets some real help back there! Those security guards have only been trained in the art of arms crossing.Billy: Last week it was Carter Shaw knocking Cranley out. This time, they go down together! Again! Just like the Havoc Rumble!The feed to the backroom stops as we rejoin the crowd around the ring, buzzing with noise and talk about what they just watched.

OG Bishop vs. Jay Omega
Billy: Shitfire and brimstone we’ve got a BANGER up next for you!Chris Avery: A banger?Billy: This match is gonna SLAP!Chris Avery: It’s going to what?Billy: ACAB Chris!Chris Avery: There’s no way you understand what that means.Billy: Absolutely not but I’ve seen it lotsa places recently!"Invasion (Goldberg)" by Chris Poulet plays and out from the back walks Bishop along with his manager Mr. Armstrong. Bishop throws his arms up as he looks around at the crowd. He walks down the ramp and climbs into the ring. Adilene Floyd: Making his way to the ring, from Miami, Florida, weighing in at 320 pounds, he is "The Great Destroyer" BISHOP!! Chris Avery: Bishop will take part in that absolutely clustercuss of a Hardcore title match at Evolution as will his opponent here tonight…Dethklok's "Face Fisted" rolls out over the arena sound system, and the house lights die, save for a single cone of illumination, a hellish red in hue. This spotlight centers on the stage, and a red-clad, hooded figure enters its glow, head bowed. The figure pauses for the space of a heartbeat, then raises his head and lowers his hood, revealing the masked visage of the Hardcore Maniac, Jay Omega. He takes in the crowd with a slow scan from right to left, then begins to walk single-mindedly toward the ring. Adilene Floyd: Now making his way to the ring, standing six foot one and weighing two hundred twenty-six pounds… At ringside, Jay climbs the stairs and steps through the ropes, then stalks around the perimeter of the ring, touching each top turnbuckle as he passes. Adilene Floyd: He is the Hardcore Maniac, Jay Omega! Billy: He's more driven and focused than I've ever seen! Chris Avery: The Hardcore Maniac is looking to make a statement tonight!After rounding the ring, Omega moves to his corner, where he cracks his neck and rolls his shoulders, then stands ready for the match to start. The bell rings and both men absolutely fly to the center of the ring. Bishop throws his size 22s toward Omegas face who ducks under, bounces off the far ropes and fires quickly back with a flying forearm, stumbling the big man backwards. Omega fires off the ropes again and comes back this time with a spinning wheel kick, stumbling Bishop again. A third time off the ropes and this time a pumpkick from Omega to the chest of Bishop sends the big man back into the ropes. Omega rushes in to follow it up but Bishop turns him absolutely inside out with a monstrous clothesline. Bishop stands over Omega and puts the boots to the downed Hardcore Maniac. Bishop leans down to grab Omega by the head but Omega catches him right in the chin with a stiff upkick. Omega kips to his feet and launches himself at Bishop but the big man catches him across his shoulders and drills him into the mat with his Last Rites Samoan Drop. Chris Avery: A pin from Bishop!One! Two! Billy: Kickout from the Hardcore Maniac!Frustrated, Bishop pulls Omega up and shoves his head immediately between his knees, setting up for his Book of Bishop powerbomb. Bishop hoists Omega up but Omega begins throwing right hands while on Bishop’s shoulders and is able to break free and land on his feet in front of the giant Bishop. Bishop is quick to react though and hits a knee to the stomach of Omega and against him up for a powerbomb. Omega up again and down! Bishop hoists him back up...right hands again from Omega and now a hurracarrana sends the big man sprawling! Bishop gets to a knee but before he can tower over Omega again, Omega tattoos the side of his head with a running knee and Bishop goes down hard. Omega is quick to follow up with a springboard frog splash. Omega looking focused now and sends Bishop to the corner and then hits him with Lockdown! Bishop is down again! Mr. Armstrong, Bishop’s manager is now up on the apron and being warned by the official to get out. Omega watches the manager while Bishop crawls to a far corner to recover. The official and Armstrong are bickering while Bishop is leaning face first in the corner. Omega decides to take control of the situation and superkick Armstrong off the apron and his head damn near off his shoulders. Armstrong goes flying, the referee warns Omega who responds with a shrug and then launches after Bishop who is still in that corner. Omega flies for his BREATHTAKING splash but Bishop sidesteps at the last minute and Omega bounces off...an exposed steel turnbuckle! Bishop wasn’t resting, he took off that turnbuckle pad!

The US Champion Segment #3
The scene opens in an undisclosed location in a nondescript setting. At first nobody appears on camera, only the sound of shuffling is heard off to the side as Masuda Teijin’s legs walk into frame. Masuda Teijin: Hey! Up here dickhead.The camera lifts up and reveals the rest of Masuda’s body. He rests that baseball bat on his shoulder and motions off camera. “The IllumiDaddy” Wesley walks into frame next, his hands folded in on each other, the United States Championship draped over his shoulder. Billy: OH JESUS CHRIST!!!Chris Avery: The IllumiDaddy finally shows himself here tonight on Clash!!!Wesley smiles and points at the camera. “The IllumiDaddy” Wesley: Kevin Bishop and Corey Bull. It’s been a pleasure watching the two of you absolutely throttle my body doubles. They knew exactly what they were getting themselves into and they were fairly compensated. This project isn’t an indictment on me or my “fear” of coming face to face with either of you.Wesley and Masuda both laugh. “The IllumiDaddy” Wesley: This has been an experiment to see how far the two of you were willing to sink for this.He holds the United States Championship forward. “The IllumiDaddy” Wesley: You’ve torn each other to pieces. You nearly murdered my protege. You’ve beat the living hell out of two innocent men. You’ve sunk to the lowest levels of depravity and darkness for fifteen pounds of leather and gold...but I’ve cut you off at every corner. I’ve always been two steps ahead of you. Now you’re looking to get your hands on me, but once again, I’ve outsmarted you like the mongoloids you are.Wesley sneers and laughs under his breath. “The IllumiDaddy” Wesley: This is just a precursor to Evolution. I’ll always be one move ahead of you. You can’t measure up. You don’t have the...A door opens and closes off camera. Masuda slowly turns his head to his left and points. Wesley turns as the camera pans over revealing Corey Bull flexing his neck and Kevin Bishop cracking his knuckles. Billy: SHITFIRE!!! BISHOP AND BULL!!!Chris Avery: They’ve found him! They found Wesley’s hidey hole!Masuda launches himself at the two like they’re a grenade about to explode. Bishop spin kicks the bat out of his hand and Bull lifts him up by his jacket! He launches him directly through the dry wall and they both turn their attention towards Wesley! The crowd explodes as the three break out in an all out brawl!!! Billy: ITS HAPPENING!!! THEY’VE ALL GOTTEN THEIR HANDS ON EACH OTHER!!!Chris Avery: THIS IS GONNA BE A HARD ONE TO STOP!!! WE MIGHT SEE THEM FIGHT ALL THE WAY UNTIL EVOLUTION!!!They’re all blasting each other with right hands! Bull launches a haymaker at Wesley, but he ducks underneath! Wesley tries to whack Bishop with the US Championship, but he manages to dodge out of the way! Bishop sees Bull and throws a huge superkick, but Bull brushes it away and Bishop kicks the head off of the cameraman. The camera hits the ground and the scene cuts to a static haze.

Johnny Legend & Jim Mud vs. Meghan Kelser & Jacob Chris Avery: It is now time for the Random.org Tag Team Match of the Week!Billy: Shitfire! Is that a real thing?!Chris Avery: It very well could be, Billy.Adilene Floyd is standing in the middle of the ring. Adilene Floyd: The following match is a tag team match with…Smarks: ONE FALL! She winks at them. Adilene Floyd: Already standing in the ring… MEGHAN KELSERRRRRR!!!!!!!Billy: That girl done came to the ring during commercial break. Her dang entrance took foreeeeeever.Darkness. ActionTron5000 shows all manner of British pomp and circumstance. Queen, Charles etc etc. Adilene Floyd: And her tag team partner… JACOB walks on to the stage under a single spotlight. He simply slowly walks down to the ring, not making eye contact with anyone.Adilene Floyd: From Malton, North Yorkshire… weighing in at ninety-nine kilograms…Up the stairs and into the ring. He holds out one fist, knuckles facing the sky, bows his head slightly, he closes his eyes and whispers into it for a few seconds and then slowly opens them, and lifts his head back up. Adilene Floyd: HEEEEEE… IIIIIIS… JAAAAAAACOOOOOB!!!!!He then smiles as the lights come on, again, but blindingly bright. Meghan covers her eyes in pain from staring up at the lights. Adilene Floyd: And their opponents… first up...The stage lights dim dramatically as a single bass note echoes through the arena, a large wave of boos rushing over as the speakers fall silent for a moment before the full bass line to My Name is Mud kicks in. Adilene Floyd: From Chiefhawk County...When the full instrumental kicks in, Jim Mud pushes through the curtain and takes his place center stage, staring ahead with the camera zooming in to focus on dilated dark pupils. Adilene Floyd: Weighing in at one hundred and seventy pounds…The audience litters the stage, entrance ramp, and ringside area with trash in disapproval as Jim continues his march, stepping slowly down the aisle. He steps through the ropes and takes a deep, eyes closed inhale before returning his gaze to the hard cam. Adilene Floyd: HIS NAME IS JIIIIIIMMMMMM MMMMUUUUUUD!!!!!Chris Avery: She's really milking these entrances for all they're worth.The lights dim down to black with Destiny by Stratovarius (a shorter starting) starts to play over the speakers. Adilene Floyd: And his tag team partner…With only a few seconds passing with the intro, the song stops for a moment and an unknown, deep male voice calls out, "The Last Legend" while it also appears on the screen in writing. The music comes back forty seconds into the song as it starts to pick up. Adilene Floyd: Hailing from Detroit, Michigan! Weighing in at two hundred and twenty five pounds! TOMMY LEGEND!Billy: WHAT?!Adilene Floyd: Uhhh… JOOOOHHHNYYYYYY LEGEEEEENNNDD!!!!!Billy: Better.Johnny Legend appears from behind the curtain in his sleek black robe with "The Last Legend" on the back. The stitching on the back lettering is starting to come loose and some holes in the robe, he raises his arms in the air to a mix crowd reaction. Sporting a smirk as he struts his way down the ramp, Johnny Legend keeps his distance from the fans as he hopes they don't put any more rips into his cheap robe. He climbs through the ropes and into the ring while his music slowly dies down. Chris Avery: A little slip up there from Ms. Floyd… but hey… everyone is human.Billy: Has anyone proven Jacob really IS human?Chris Avery: I didn't know that was up for debate.With all four competitors ready for action packed action, the zebraman stands in the middle and explains the rules of a tag team match. Megan furiously scribbles notes on her arm with a sharpie. Jacob elects to start the match so she can work on her studies, while Johnny and Jim argue abour who will start on their side. Finally, Johnny steps out of the ring and Jim remains as the legal man. The opening bell sounds and Johnny immediately tags himself in. Chris Avery: There's already tension between random tag team partners.Jim looks pissed as the zebraman encourages them to switch places. Johnny smiles as he turns around into a double leg takedown and some mounted punches by Jacob. Johnny blocks his head and pushes Jacob off, then scurries back to his corner to tag Jim back in. He gets in and immediately charges at Jacob, who ducks… and Jim's momentum sends him crashing into Meghan, knocking her off the apron. Billy: Jim is the worst! I can't believe he just hit Pam!Chris Avery: Meghan.Billy: Who?Jim turns back into a drop toe hold from Jacob, who converts it into some kind of ankle lock. Within moments, Johnny comes in and kicks Jacob in the head, then looks down at Jim. Johnny Legend: You're welcome. Jim gets up and walks to his corner as Johnny steps to the apron. Jim Mud: I had him right where I wanted him! Jacob comes from behind and pushes Jim into Johnny, thus knocking him off the apron. Jacob connects with a back suplex and before he can go for a pin, Meghan is back on the apron and waves at him. Meghan Kelser: You should go for a pin! Jacob smacks his forehead sarcastically and is rolled up from behind by Jim. 1… 2… KICKOUT! Both men get to their feet and Johnny sweeps Jacob's legs from the outside, then pulls him out. The two start brawling as the zebraman starts to count. Jim Mud: What are you doing?! Johnny Legend: Getting a countout win! Like in WCW/nWo Revenge! Growing frustrated, Jim hits the opposite ropes and suicide dives between the ropes, taking out Jacob AND Johnny. Billy: He just took out his own dang partner!Chris Avery: Some risks are worth taking. It looks like Jacob hit his head pretty hard on the guardrail.Jim ignores the cheers from the fans for his cool dive as he pulls Jacob up and rolls him back into the ring. Johnny and Jim argue long enough for Jacob to tag in Meghan, who wastes no time in running and suicide diving between the ropes at her opponents… but lands flat on the mat between them. Billy: Johnny and Jimmy was doin' that there social distancing and Meghan just aaaaate shiiiiit!Johnny and Jim look down, then to each other… and they share a laugh. Jim rolls back into the ring as Jacob climbs off the apron to help his partner up. She says she can continue as she dizzily goes back into the ring, where her opponents make a tag. Johnny gets in and walks over to Meghan, who starts throwing punches to nowhere. Chris Avery: She might be concussed. Should this match continue?Billy: HECK YEAH!Johnny slowly dodges the punches and connects with a big boot. Before he can go for a pin, Jacob gets in and defends his partner. He and Johnny brawl until they're both taken down by a top rope cross body from Jim. Billy: Dang it all, Jim! Ya can't be hittin' yer own partner like that!Jim goes back to the apron as Jacob rolls out of the ring. The zebraman goes to check on him. Chris Avery: See. I told you. Concussion.Meghan slowly gets up, followed by Johnny. She ambitiously grabs his twig and berries… and… yanks… down? Billy: OH WAIT!!
Legend blocks her hand and then lays on top of her pinning her!!
One!
Two!
Three!!
Chris Avery: HE GOT HER!! HE STOLE ONE!!
Legend jumps up celebrating the tag team victory he just stole over Kesler! Jim Mud is excited!
Jacob is not. Because his tag team partner no-showed basically and he got the shit end of the stick. Jacob looks in the ring and looks at Mud thinking one day, he's going to get revenge for this. One day. May not be tomorrow, or the next day, but one day Jacob will get revenge for someone fucking up his match because they decided to no-show.
Anyways we cut to a commercial.

The US Champion Segment #4
The scene reopens backstage on the trio of bloodied up warriors - Kevin Bishop, Corey Bull, and Wesley - still knocking the holy shit out of each other. Their shots are thrown with less power, their feet stumbling, and minds hazy. Masuda stumbles by still trying to screw his head on straight after being thrown through a wall. Billy: SHITFIRE! SOMEBODY NEEDS TO STOP THIS MADNESS!Chris Avery: These guys are going to kill each other if somebody doesn’t give!Billy: None of these three want to say when!The trio are just taking each other to town, blasting off with whatever shots they can muster up! Bull goes to lift Wesley with a suplex, but a swift kick to the back of Bull from Bishop stops him in his tracks! Bishop throws a wild kick at the head of Wesley but he manages to block it with his arms! He goes for a bionic elbow to the head of Bishop but Bull grabs him by the throat! Bishop rushes in and Bull grabs him by his throat! He attempts the double chokeslam, but Wesley and Bishop both plant a kick to the midsection of Bull and he releases his grip! Billy: HERE COMES SECURITY!!!Chris Avery: FINALLY, HOLY HELL!!!A decent sized security force rushes in on the three men who are still trying to pummel the hell out of each other! It takes six or seven men on each one to finally break up the fight! Billy: This is what we can expect at Evolution! These three are way passed their boiling point here!Chris Avery: the United States Championship is on the line at Evolution III! Corey Bull! Kevin Bishop! Wesley!The scene fades out as security keeps them from killing each other!

Television Championship Azurine Vebbins vs. Graham Baker(c) Adilene Floyd: Ladies and gentlemen, the following match is schedules for ONE FALL and is for the AW Television Championship!The arena lights go down, and the arena is filled with guitar strums and the intensifying drum beat of the song as smoke pours out from the entrance ramp, revealing Baker only from the highlighted portions of his outfit. 'WE'LL NEVER GET FREE LAMBS TO THE SLAUGHTER WHATCHU GON' DO WHEN THERE'S BLOOD IN THE WATER' As the song continues, taking a moment to hang, the smoke clears and Baker's back is revealed to the crowd, a leather jacket bearing the words 'The Aviator' and a flaming skull shown as he points two finger guns at the screen. 'THE PRICE OF YOUR GREED YOUR SON AND YOUR DAUGHTER WHATCHU GON' DO WHEN THERE'S BLOOD IN THE WATER' The screen cracks as Baker 'fires' at it. 'WHEN THERE'S BLOOD IN THE WATER?' The intense chorus kicks up as Baker turns around, screaming out as he leaps into position. He slaps hands with the fans as he approaches the ring, mostly favoring those who are supporting him before pulling himself up on the apron, tossing his jacket off before springboarding into the ring. Adilene Floyd: In the ring first, from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, representing the Man Made Gods...he is your current, defending AW Television Champion...THEE AVIATORR GRAHAAAMM BAAAAAAKEEERRRR!Billy: Baker has SHITFIRE in his eyes, as always. So intense, he’s looking to ram right through tonight’s title defense and then right through Evolution.Chris Avery: Describe SHITFIRE being in someone’s eyes for me, Billy.Billy: I don’t need to describe it. Look into Graham Baker’s eyes. There it is.Adilene Floyd: AND introducing the challenger...As "Radio Gaga" by Queen prominently plays throughout the arena, "The Adorkable Angel" Azurine Vebbins pirouettes onto the entrance ramp. A solitary spotlight provides an ethereal glow as she begins to descend down the ramp like an automaton practicing aerobics. Adilene Floyd: Hailing from Los Angeles, California, she is the “Adorkable Angel”...AAAAZURRIIINNEE VEEEEBBBIIINNNS!She performs various other dance steps while making her way to the eastern ring apron. Along the way, she waves, high-fives and hugs certain chanters she comes into contact with. When a chanter puckers up for a kiss, she points to her halo (neck collar). Upon entering the eastern ring apron, she glides between the bottom and middle ropes before awaiting referee instruction. Chris Avery: We haven’t seen much of Azurine Vebbins as of late in AW, but man what a story it would make if she could get the upset here tonight!Billy: And book a ticket to Evolution carrying the TV Title? That’s what dreams are made of, Chris.Chris Avery: Speaking of dreams...wait, hold on... Azurine Vebbins is out here not wearing any shoes!Billy: She told us that today is National Barefoot Day! Let a girl celebrate, Chris!Vebbins shows no trepidation as the bell rings, stepping right up the middle of the ring and raising hands, looking for a tie-up. The ref looks down to the bare feet of Vebbins, verbally checking with Vebbins to make sure it was purposeful. Baker nods and steps up as well, but after a brief moment of raising his hands as well, rips a kick to the gut of Vebbins. He fires a few vicious hands, but Vebbins gets a few shots of her own in as well. She ducks a swing from Baker, swinging around him and getting a rear waist lock but Baker escapes with a sharp back elbow. Billy: You can tell Vebbins is hungry for the opportunity and that Baker wants to continue to make a statement week in and week out.Chris Avery: Graham Baker made a statement earlier tonight with a steel chair across the craniums of Carter Shaw and Noris Cranley. He sees himself hangin’ on to this TV title straight through the road to Evolution.Vebbins charges at Baker, but Baker catches her with a whipping powerslam, immediately getting to the ground and locking in a side headlock as the ref gets in on the action, checking legality. Vebbins tries to roll out of it, but Baker brings a left knuckle down to her forehead several times before squeezing some more. She managed to roll to her stomach, doing a somersault to escape. With no wasted movement, she whips her body around and sends both boots into Baker’s face with a front dropkick before he can get up. The crowd is split down the middle, loud chants of “Let’s Go Baker” being responded to with “Let’s Go Vebbins”. Vebbins hits the ropes and knocks Baker down with a running forearm. She hits the opposite ropes and repeats the move a second time. Baker gets up a third time, and Vebbins is going for a trifecta of forearms, but Baker whips his body around and catches her with a face-breaking spinning back elbow to take control. Chris Avery: There’s that striker ability! What a spinning elbow.Billy: Vebbins looking to hold her own though, she’s already getting back up!Baker doesn’t give her time to recover, as he swings a leg with a kick to the side. Then with the left leg. Then again with the right. And again with the left. Vebbins doubles over from the shots and Baker lifts a knee right into her face, knocking her back into the ropes. Baker hits the opposite ropes and goes to clothesline Vebbins over and out but she catches him with a drop toe hold, hanging him up on the middle rope. She spins, lifts herself up over the top rope and drops a leg drop across the back of Baker’s hanging head, giving him a double dose to the throat of rope. She springboards herself back in, up and over Baker, wrapping him in to a sunset pin attempt! 1… 2...Baker kicks out quickly at 2. Chris Avery: There’s a hint of respect between these two here as you can tell neither is wasting a single moment to attack. No time to gloat.Billy: Competitive momentum is certainly on Baker’s side though. While Vebbins comes in well rested, Baker’s been on fire defending this TV Title.With Baker on the defensive, Vebbins helps him to his feet with both arms underhooked, sending him over with a butterfly suplex. She floats over, but instead of going for a pin attempt, jumps to her feet and starts laying in to Baker with stomps to the chest and stomach. She connects with about 6 before Baker pulls himself out of the ring. He goes over to the barricade to re-group for a moment. In the ring, Vebbins runs to the far ropes again, possibly looking for some sort of plancha, but Baker reacts quick as a cat, sliding into the ring. This forces Vebbins to stop with a few hard steps, Baker swooping right behind her and connecting with a snapping German suplex that folds her up. He smirks, satisfied with the sudden impact. Billy: Like an accordion, what verocity on that German Suplex!Chris Avery: You mean velocity?Billy: No, verocity.Chris Avery: You mean veracity?Billy: Nope.Finally in complete control, Baker helps Vebbins to her feet only to shove her back into the corner. He connects with solid fists to the ribs, rights and lefts. He switches it up, going to back elbows and letting them rip as the ref shouts warnings to halt the corner onslaught. Vebbins now has a small trail of blood from a busted lip going down her chin. Baker relents before the ref starts a DQ count, nodding in the ref’s direction. He plays out to the crowd a moment with a swinging fist, firing up his fan base. Chris Avery: Baker is in that Evolution state of mind! The newest member of Man Made Gods wants to bring gold to the show, for sure.Billy: You aren’t lyin’, king!Vebbins fights her way out of the corner and, as she does, Baker comes charging at her, head down as if looking for a spear, but Vebbins side-steps and sends Baker head first into the second turnbuckle. Vebbins grabs him from behind, looking for the Half Nelson Suplex, but Baker locks his leg with hers to block it. He spins around and lifts a knee to her gut. She doubles over and Baker gets her in the pumphandle position, looking to hit the Chopping Block. He lifts Vebbins, but she manages to spin out of it with a bit of a Matrix-like evasion. She lands on her feet and lifts a boot up to Baker’s chin. He leans back from the impact, but reaches forward and hits a European Uppercut sending Vebbins back a step as well. Her reflexes matches his, as she reaches forward again with an open palm strike, knocking Baker backwards. Both step towards each other in the same motion and go for an enziguri kick, both only managing to hit boot to boot as the great minds think alike. Billy: Very nice exchange there, both Baker and Vebbins so well versed in their ring styles.Baker scrambles to get to his feet first, grabbing Vebbins and looking to lift her with a scoop slam, but Vebbins takes the momentum up and over Baker’s shoulder, landing behind him. She connects with a few stiff forearms to the back of Baker’s head before spinning him around and looking for the Northern Light’s Suplex, but again, Baker flatens out as Vebbins goes for the lift, and with the speed of lightning, Baker hooks the arm up and over and grabs her leg in, lifting Vebbins up himself and planting her in a Fisherman’s Driver! He keeps the leg in grasp for the pin! 1… 2… Vebbins kicks out! Billy: What a reversal! I believe in Japan, they call that move the Pumba Driver ‘97!Chris Avery: I don’t think that’s right, Billy. Baker almost took the successful title defense there though, and I think Vebbins is in trouble here after some amazing back and forth.Baker again helps Vebbins to her feet only to whip her into the corner and follows up looking for a running knee, but Vebbins brings both bare feet up and kicks him square in the chin. She steps out of the corner and takes Baker down with a Tilt-A-Whirl head scissors. He rolls to his feet while still feeling the effect, but turns around only for Vebbins to actually connect this time with a Northern Light’s Suplex, keeping her body bridged for the pin attempt! 1… 2… No! Baker kicks out after 2! Billy: Vebbins managing to catch Baker here, these two don’t know how to quit!Chris Avery: The Adorkable Angel isn’t making it easy for The Aviator to fly into Evolution with this title!Vebbins gets to her feet with a serious look in her eye, making her way to the corner with the crowd cheering her on. She turns around and waves her hand up for Baker to stand. He does so, stumbling a bit, with his back towards her. Vebbins hops in to attack, locking both arms from behind looking for the Dragon Suplex. Billy: Uh oh!! Vebbins looking to put it away with the Pearly Gatekeeper!She goes for the lift but, again, Baker tucks his chin and leans his weight forward just in time. He swings his head back with a vicious headbutt to the already busted lip of Vebbins to break her grasp. He spins around and connects with a spinning back elbow before locking in the front face lock and nailing a brainbuster to Vebbins! The crowd is hot for Baker now as the crowd can’t get enough of BOTH sides of offense! Chris Avery: I think both of these two watched a lot of tape this week on one another! Baker did say earlier this week how much respect he has for Vebbins. He’s showing it in his preparation.Billy: And with Vebbins down from that brainbuster, we know what Graham Baker is thinking…Baker is lining up the shot from behind Vebbins, looking for the 1789 running knee. He’s now the one waving his hand up as Vebbins slowly gets to her knees. Baker runs forward but Vebbins manages to sense it just in time, ducking the swing of Baker’s knee. Baker stumbles past, but goes to immediately lift his boot again for a superkick. Vebbins ducks her head to the side, avoiding that impact also. She pulls Baker to the mat with a school boy attempt, but Baker rolls right over his head and back to his feet, only for Vebbins to grab him and lift two knees right into his chest...followed up by a bare foot super kick, her heel catching flush into Baker’s jaw. Billy: Looking to complete the Sweetheart Sock Hop trinity!!!Vebbins pulls his head in, looking for the finishing Pulled-In DDT, but somehow Baker spins right out of it. He gets immediate position behind Vebbins, locking her arms quickly and slamming her to the mat with the Backslide Driver!! Vebbins rolls over her neck and ends up kneeling as Baker hops back a step and charges his boot forward for another superkick attempt! Vebbins, despite the clear dazed eyes, catches Baker’s boot! Chris Avery: This crowd is going nuts! This action is like a damn movie scene!Baker hesitates a moment in surprise, thinking for sure he was about to put some lights out. Vebbins tosses his foot down, and in one sweet motion, jumps to her feet and sends a front dropkick to his chest, sending him backwards from the impact despite bare feet. Both competitors are down as they finally each get a bit of recovery time. Billy: Fast and furious, wow! The capacity crowd is on their feet, this is what the road to Evolution is all about!Chris Avery: Vebbins hasn’t had much of a chance to show what she’s got here in AW, but she is certainly making a name for herself here tonight. The Man Made God doing all he can to make sure it’s not at his expense!Both are stirring simultaneously as the ref is up to a downed count of ‘4’. Baker pulls himself up with the ropes as Vebbins gets to her feet in the middle of the ring. The “Let’s Go Baker” and corresponding “Let’s Go Vebbins” chants kick up once more. Baker connects with a shot on Vebbins, and Vebbins fires back. Baker connects with another, and again, Vebbins responds with a fist of her own. “YAY” responses for each shot from the crowd. Baker comes in for another punch, but Vebbins hits a spinning kick to the gut, again the naked heel of her bare feet coming in to play. She hits the ropes quickly and comes at Baker, who side steps and goes to throw her out of the ring. Vebbins goes up and over but lands on her feet on the apron, and as Baker walks a semi-circle in the ring, Vebbins springboards back in with a double axe handle to the dome! Billy: I think we’re about 3 minutes away from a “Fight Forever” chant! Who the hell would’ve saw that coming?!Chris Avery: Baker ain’t a Man Made God for nothing...he just needs one single opening.Vebbins is feeling herself, pumping up the crowd with fists as she stomps her bare feet in the ring a couple times approaching Baker. Graham stumbles up to his feet and turns around into Vebbins, who spins him back around and locks his arms again for the Dragon Suplex, bringing him up and over right on his head. The crowd goes nuts as, again, Vebbins hops to her feet and spins around, looking for the jawbreaker to finish off the Pearly Gatekeeper, but the moment she grabs Baker’s head for it, he manages to tug her to the ground while swinging his legs around, managing to lock in the Cross Armbar! Vebbins kicks wildly as she has no idea how she just got trapped in it! Billy: EL ‘20! EL ‘20! The Emergency Landing is locked in!!!Vebbins continues to struggle before managing to swing her body weight over, taking advantage of the move not being 100% locked in. She rolls towards her arm and gets herself into a pin rollup position on Baker!!! 1… 2… 3…!!! NOO! Baker managed to adjust his shoulder off the mat just in time, breaking the hold. Billy: OH MY GOD, I thought we just had a new Television Champion!!Both struggle to their feet, the crowd RED HOT for both of them. They both have some jello legs now, but AGAIN, OUT OF NOWHERE, GRAHAM BAKER GRABS VEBBINS TO THE MAT AND LOCKS IN THE EL ‘20! He’s got it in tight this time! Chris Avery: Right back in it! Oh no! Vebbins isn’t gonna be able to roll out of this one!Billy: Baker is bringing those calf shots right across her face as well, he’s seeing visions of Evolution!Vebbins hangs in...kicking around again, trying to find any escape-able moment, but the legs coming across her face make it impossible, as she pounds a fist on the mat in frustration before tapping out!!! THE BELL RINGS Billy: The EL ‘20 secures the victory for Baker! WOW what a contest.Chris Avery: It’s like we were playing this match on Playstation, just pounding the R2 button. Reverse! Reverse! Reverse! Vebbins shows why she belongs here in AW.Adilene Floyd: Here is your winner, by submission...and STIIILLL AW TELEVISION CHAMPION. GRAHAM BAKER!Baker gets his TV title handed to him by the ref, still down on his knees as he hugs his title and looks at it closely with intensity. The crowd is cheering The Aviator as he manages to get to his feet and lifting the title out to the crowd, yelling out words while pointing at the Evolution sign up above the rafters. Billy: Lock it in, folks! GRAHAM BAKER goes to Evolution as the TV Champ to defend in a triple threat match against Carter Shaw and Noris Cranley. What a MATCH.

"WHO DONE IT" The Video Tape of The Attack on Sara Pettis
“Hypnotize” by Notorious B.I.G. hits the PA and the crowd pops. Billy: Looks like we’re about to discover exactly who attacked Sara Pettis back on May 18!Chris Avery: It’s about time. I wonder what took this long?!Camila appears on the stage with Jaice Wilds timidly following behind her. She marches to the ring and climbs in while Jaice stands behind her as she calls for a mic. Camila Gonzalez: Y’all know why I’m out here. We had a VICIOUS attack happen here 2 weeks ago, and tonight, I’m going to reveal the perpetrator. I’ve reviewed the security footage. I’ve watched the tape. It’s graphic, and as such, I will spare you all from viewing it.Crowd: BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! “Rage 25/8” by Z Mann Zilla starts to play and the fans go wild. Raging Dead appears on the stage looking straight up livid. He has a mic in hand and he stays at the top of the ramp. Raging Dead: Camila, before you tell us if Sara was attacked by one person or 200 people, I want to make something crystal clear… I have a demand.Camila rolls her eyes. Camila Gonzalez: What makes you think you can make demands, Dead?Raging Dead: If you don’t give me whatever motherfucker attacked Sara at Evolution, I will personally see to it that nothing on your precious show of shows happens like it’s planned. If I have to the bones of every performer you’re counting on showing up for your big pay day just to punish you for not doing right by me and Sara then that’s EXACTLY what I’ll fucking do! Camila smiles and winks at RD. Camila Gonzalez: Oh, Dead, of course you can have your wife’s attacker in a match at Evolution 3! And I’ll tell you what, as a show of good faith, I’ll let you pick the type of match you’ll have…A muted, sadistic smirk creeps across RD’s face. Raging Dead: I want that motherfucker in a Lion’s Den Match!Camila smiles big. Camila Gonzalez: You want ‘im in a cage fight, huh? Raging Dead: You’re goddamn right, I do! Now, WHO THE FUCK WAS IT?!Camila lifts the mic up to her mouth, but as she does the tron lights up with a frantic shot of something happening backstage. Medics are running toward a locker room in the back. Camila looks at the screen confused. Camila Gonzalez: What the fuck is going on?The shot shows a man frantically tending to a blonde woman who is face down on the floor of the locker area. It’s clear the downed woman is Lacey Lowe. Camila rolls her eyes as she watches the medics force their way into the room where Lacey’s beautiful blonde hair is matted with what appears to be blood. Frank is flipping shit as the medics come into the room. Billy: Oh no! It appears Lacey Lowe has been attacked, too!Chris Avery: This is an epidemic, Billy! Good god. Frank anxiously moves toward his downed wife. Frank Lowe: Lacey! Who did this to you! I’ll fucking kill them! Raging Dead watches the screen and grows increasingly anxious and pissed off. Camila is unimpressed. Camila Gonzalez: Frank! FRANK! Cut the shit! Billy: What?!RD’s attention shifts from the Tron to Camila, his anger replaced with confusion. Camila Gonzalez: Frank, do you think I’m stupid? I know Lacey’s fine. Lacey, get off the fucking floor. Billy: What the hell?!Chris Avery: Has Camila lost it?!Lacey rolls over and looks at Frank while shrugging. Lacey: It’s over, Frank. She knows. I told you…Frank Lowe: SHUT THE FUCK UP, LACE! JESUS!Camila Gonzalez: Frank, I have. A. Fucking. VIDEO TAPE. Did you think you’d be able to just, like, trick me into forgetting I have SEEN YOU attack Sara Pettis? Dead, there you have it… Frank Lowe is your opponent for Evolution 3!The crowd pops loud and starts chanting for RD. RAGING DEAD RAGING DEAD RAGING DEAD RAGING DEAD RAGING DEAD RAGING DEAD RAGING DEAD RAGING DEAD RAGING DEAD RAGING DEAD RAGING DEAD RAGING DEAD RAGING DEAD RAGING DEAD RAGING DEAD RAGING DEAD RAGING DEAD RAGING DEAD RAGING DEAD RAGING DEAD RAGING DEAD RAGING DEAD RAGING DEAD RAGING DEAD RAGING DEAD RAGING DEAD RAGING DEAD RAGING DEAD RAGING DEAD RAGING DEAD RAGING DEAD RAGING DEAD RAGING DEAD Frank is smirking on the tron. Frank Lowe: Yeah? That’s it? That’s the extent of the punishment I’ll face for kicking the shit out of that loser’s wife?! HAHA!Camila Gonzalez: No, no, Frank. There’s more. If you lose at Evolution, Lacey will be contractually bound to Raging Dead and Sara Pettis for the next 60 days!Frank is PISSED, the crowd pops wild, Lacey is stunned, and RD starts licking his chops. Frank Lowe: THE HELL SHE WILL BE!Camila smiles. Camila Gonzalez: Well, Frank, I guess you better win then, huh? Haha!Camila drops the mic and “Hypnotize” plays as the segment fades to commercial.

Sam Kidsgrove & James Nightingale Contract Signing
Clash returns from a commercial break and shows Billy and Chris Avery sitting at ringside. Billy: NOW WE’LL SHIFT GEARS TO THE DEVASTATING MATCH WE WITNESSED LAST WEEK BETWEEN TWO SISTERS, ZOOEY AND EMILY DESCHANEL!Chris Avery: It was truly a fight that is going to be etched in the minds of the Action Wrestling Universe for some time.Billy: THAT’S RIGHT AVERY, AND AS A RESULT OF EMILY PICKING UP THE VICTORY, ALBEIT CONTROVERSIALLY, JAMES NIGHTINGALE HAS THE OPPORTUNITY TO PICK THE MATCH STIPULATION FOR THE HIGHLY ANTICIPATED GRUDGE MATCH AT EVOLUTION III BETWEEN SAM KIDSGROVE AND HIMSELF!Chris Avery: So we're gonna have a good old fashioned Contract Signing Billy!Billy: KIDSGROVE IS ACTUALLY GONNA SIGN A FULL-TIME DEAL RIGHT HERE IN THE RING AT THE SAME TIME AS HIS MATCH DEAL WITH NIGHTINGALE. I’VE NEVER BEEN SO HAPPY! EVEN WHEN THERE WAS A SALE ON AT TARGET LAST NIGHT.Chris Avery: Sale? What sale?Billy: EVERYTHING IS FREE CHRIS, YOU JUST GO THERE AND CAN TAKE ANYTHING YOU WANTChris Avery: What?Billy: YEAH YOU JUST WALK IN, THEY EVEN REMOVED THE WINDOWS TO HELP. Chris Avery: Isn’t that looting?Billy: I GOT LEGOS.“Hero” By Skillet hits the system, not the usual version, but the slowed-down instrumental version we’ve been hearing when Kidsgrove is around nowadays. Fog, darkness, flashing lights all startup when the music plays, slowly and surely, Kidsgrove walks out from behind the curtain, led by Zooey Deschanel, who looks mightily annoyed wearing her black dress and veil. They are flanked by Ben Affleck and Matt Damon, both in their undead AF getup. Following them are a dozen actors, all of which are A-List Superstars. They range from Hugh Jackman, Ryan Reynolds all the way to Chris Pratt and John Krasinski. All of them are wearing funeral garb. Billy: IT’S LIKE A GODDAMN MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE SETUP CHRISChris Avery: Good to see you are up to date with modern references Billy. After a while, the Screen Actors Guild make their way into the ring. They stand in a line at the far side of the ring, with Kidsgrove and Zooey out in front. They stand next to the table, waiting for Nightingale to come. The arena falls into darkness, “In The House, In a Heartbeat” by William Morris begins its iconic introduction. Through flickering lights appears James Nightingale, dressed in an all-black suit, holding a ring binder in his hand. He is accompanied by Emily Deschanel, and backed up by several members of MS-13. Billy: NIGHTINGALE IS HERE, KIDSGROVE IS ABOUT TO HEAR HIS FATE!Chris Avery: Man Nightingale has dressed up for the occasion.Billy: DON’T BE FOOLED AVERY, IT LOOKS LIKE A CHEAP SUIT FROM WALMART!Chris Avery: That’s Asda for all you British fans watching.Nightingale and his followers start making their way down the ramp, but suddenly, Nightingale stops in his tracks. He whispers in Emily’s ear, then kisses her on the cheek. She looks pissed, he gives her a sternly spoken instruction. He then nods to the members of MS-13, and they, as well as Emily, turn and walk back up the ramp. Billy: THAT’S A SHOCKER! NIGHTINGALE IS OPTING TO GO IT ALONE!Nightingale continues to walk down the ramp and jumps up onto the apron. He clenches the ring ropes whilst staring straight at Kidsgrove. He steps into the ring and marches straight to Kidsgrove, but before he reaches him, Ben Affleck and Matt Damon look to step in front of him but Kidsgrove stops them. He then instructs them, as well as the rest of SAG to return to the back. He speaks to Zooey, shares an embrace and she too exits the ring with SAG, returning to the back via the crowd, with the rest of them. Billy: KIDSGROVE AND NIGHTINGALE ARE IN AN ACTION WRESTLING RING BY THEMSELVES FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THIS LONG FEUD!Kidsgrove and Nightingale walk up to each other, standing mere millimetres away from each other's faces. They stand there fixated on each other for several minutes. Nightingale finally breaks away from the intense staredown and grabs a mic from the table. James Nightingale: A six-month war, we have raged a six-month war against each other, from the backstage area, to the back seat of my car, inside a supermarket and even in an abandoned hospital. We have taken each other to our very limits, we have both sunk to incredibly low depths, and it all comes to an end next Sunday at Evolution III. I have wanted to destroy you for so damn long, it has become an obsession of mine. Choking out your little whore was a calculated attack, I needed something to draw your ass back from your poisonous political campaign and back into the ring. And you took the bait, you and Zooey always take the damn bait Sam. You took the bait in that hospital, giving me the opportunity to inject you with that insulin, and Zooey took the bait two weeks ago when she agreed to the match with Emily. I knew there would be no way that Emily would lose, I’ve been training her since we hooked up, whilst you and Zooey were busy running around playing trick or treat, we were preparing for war. And it worked, she took the bait and lost. And now I have the power to choose how I will end you at Evolution!Kidsgrove starts to laugh, a high pitched, cruel laugh. It’s unsettling and makes Nightingale step back. He picks up his mic from the table, and when he talks, it’s gravelly and ethereal. Sam Kidsgrove: You really think you’ve won? You really think that you have done everything you set out to do. You have the power, you have everything going for you - you’ve been one step ahead all this time? Sure you have. Sure. Tell me, what sort of match were you looking for? Cage? Hell in a Cell? Something to set your marker down and become a star I bet. I think you spent weeks, no months thinking of this scheme, getting this match, to be the making of you. But no, we’re not having a Hell in a Cell match, nor are we having a cage match.James Nightingale: We’re having whatever match I decide! I have the power!Sam Kidsgrove: You are just doing exactly what I want you to do. I have you where I want you mentally. You’re scared. You know that feeling you’ve had the past few weeks? You know, the one where you look over your shoulder anywhere you go, you can’t sleep, you barely eat. You spend most of your day training and getting ready for a fight? Yeah, that’s because I want you to feel that way. You being scared, paranoid and training for a fight is exactly where I wanted you to be. Nightingale laughs at Kidsgrove and pushes the ring binder into Kidsgrove’s chest. James Nightingale: There you go! Do you want to see what I’ve been scheming away at? The plans I’ve been making in fear of you?Nightingale continues to laugh. James Nightingale: Open that folder, and see what your fate is, learn how you will meet your demise.Kidsgrove laughs and shakes his head. Sam Kidsgrove: This is going to be great.He unzips the ring binder and opens it, revealing the contract. The match type has been left blank! Kidsgrove looks up at Nightingale, slightly taken aback with the discovery. Billy: I’M CONFUSED! DID NIGHTINGALE FORGET TO FILL IN THE CONTRACT?!?!James Nightingale: That Sam is not the sign of a scared, broken man like you depict me to be, you are definitely not inside my head. No that is the highest amount of confidence one could truly have. It doesn’t matter what kind of match I have against you. We could have a one-on-one match, I could pin you in this very ring. We could have a submission match, I could choke you out in the very same ring that I wrapped my hands around Zooey's throat, until she fell asleep in my arms. It honestly doesn’t matter what match we have, the result will always be the same, I have already defeated you. I saw it in your eyes, that moment when you were stranded in the ring whilst I was at the Los Angeles City Hospital, with your world in my hands. I saw the defeat in your eyes then, and I see it in them now. I’ve had your number since the beginning, so it really doesn’t matter what match we have Kidsgrove because your fate is already sealed, and I have already won this war.Kidsgrove taps his mic for a moment, in thought. Sam Kidsgrove: You failed, boy. You tried to Kill Zooey, failed. You tried to kill Matt, failed. You tried to kill Ben, failed. You injected me with insulin and left me to die in a morgue. Guess what, you failed again. You see, you’re not winning as much as you think you are. Where, for example, is Florence? Nightingale bristles at this. Sam Kidsgrove: Yes, that’s it. That’s the reaction. You see, how can you be winning when you’re not in control? You didn’t put anything down on that piece of paper because you are too scared. You think it’ll all just go away if you don’t sign. I have been building to this moment ever since you put your hands on Zooey. You see, you do not ever put your hands on a woman. Especially one who can fight back. Especially one that is cunning and knows how to get into your head. Especially when that woman has a guy like me behind her. We're in your head son, rent free.James Nightingale: YOU’RE NOT IN MY HEAD!Sam Kidsgrove: You’re angry. That’s good, I need you to be angry now. I don’t need you scared, I don’t need you paranoid any longer. I want you to be angry. So I’m gonna let you in on a little secret. You know how you’ve been scared of all of this?Kidsgrove starts to peel off his face? Billy: WHAT THE ABSOLUTE….Chris Avery: Face-off!Billy: SHUT UP CHRISKidsgrove peels off every last bit of prosthetic and makeup off his face. Sam Kidsgrove: You see. You’ve just been scared of a normal guy. Everything in your head is just that, in your head. It’s the great thing about us Hollywood types, we can make you feel emotions, even if you don’t even know you’re having them. Why am I telling you this? Why am I here now, dropping the truth on you when you were scared? Because I want you to be angry, I want you to be confused, I want you to be annoyed enough so you write in that little box there 3 words. Last. Man. Standing!The crowd gives the announcement a massive pop, followed by a Kidsgrove chant. Sam Kidsgrove: You’re gonna do it, you’re gonna choose that match because you think it’s the best idea right now. You feeling a little something there bud? Anger, rage perhaps? The best way to deal with that is to knock me out for the 10 count. So that’s what you’re gonna do. You're gonna make this a Last Man Standing so you can try.Nightingale begins to lose his composure, he starts pacing around the ring muttering to himself as the chants continue, is he talking to himself, or with someone else? Suddenly he walks up to Kidsgrove, nose-to-nose, his face filled with rage. Suddenly he smiles sadistically again. James Nightingale: So be it… LAST. MAN.STANDING!!Nightingale suddenly snatches the ring binder from Kidsgrove, he slams it down on the table and writes the match type down and signs it. He then tosses it at Kidsgrove’s feet and starts to back off. James Nightingale: Get your affairs in order come next Sunday, because I just signed your death warrant!Kidsgrove smirks and picks up the binder from his feet and places it back on the table, he signs the contract. He turns the page and also signs his new AW full-time contract. He smiles at Nightingale and they stare each other out for some time before they both start to slowly back away from each other. Eventually Nightingale rolls out of the ring and makes his way back up the ramp, still staring at Kidsgrove. Kidsgrove has backed out and he’s now in the crowd. Still keeping his eyes on Nightingale. Sam Kidsgrove: Oh Jimmy, I forgot to mention. One more thing. Nightingale stops at the top of the ramp. Sam Kidsgrove: We didn’t burn Florence Nightingale’s bones. We’re actors, not monsters. Nah, we just sent her home - she’s with family now. Nightingale doesn’t like this. At all. He is in fact apoplectic. Billy: AFTER ALL THESE WEEKS HE THOUGHT HER BONES HAD BEEN BURNED TO ASH!Chris Avery: No wonder he’s angry Billy! Nightingale is throwing things on the ramp right now, wrecking the area as much as he can. Security comes out to stop him. He headbutts one of them, throws another off the stage and eventually is overcome. He is trying to break free to get at Kidsgrove, who is in the crowd, waving at Nightingale in a way only an actor can when he’s loving the spotlight. Billy: EVOLUTION III FOLKS. IT DOESN’T GET MUCH MORE PERSONAL THAN THIS!Chris Avery: This, without doubt, is the most personal match going into Evolution III!Billy: TUNE IN NEXT SUNDAY FOR THE EPIC FINAL CHAPTER OF THE SAM KIDSGROVE AND JAMES NIGHTINGALE WAR!

DoorDash Match of the Week John Black vs. Stuart Slane
The lights go out, and we hear the record scratching, then once "I get Real Raw" is heard John Black comes out to the stage with the lights on as the song plays on the iron. He then stands at the entrance way, looking at the crowd and walks down to the ramp and gives everyone some daps. Then he slides into the ring, and stands at the corner and taunts to everyone. Then he stands in the middle of the ring as his theme cuts off. Billy: John Black looking really determined here tonight. He answered Shadowlove’s open challenge the other week for Evolution 3 so you know he’s thinking about that match.Chris Avery: Yeah, that’s a big match indeed against Shadowlove, but Stuart Slane is a threat in that ring and John Black would be wrong to overlook him!"Conquistador" by Procol Harum plays through the venue's sound system. Once the opening strings section ends and the guitar riff cuts in, Stuart walks out from gorilla. Adilene Floyd: Hailing from Grant, Iowa; weighing 270 pounds: Stuart Slane!Stuart awkwardly acknowledges the mild pop from the crowd, and proceeds to slow march to the ring and up the steps. After wiping his feet on the apron he then enters between the ropes. Stuart moves to his corner, where he loosens up by engaging in some old time calisthenics (toe touches, torso twists, deep knee bends, etc) Billy: Stuart Slane coming out here with a smirk on his face. We saw earlier this week that he wasn’t happy with being left off of Evolution 3, but he’s going to be content with taking John Black to the cleaners, Chris!Chris Avery: Yeah, a guy like Slane in his current position is a dangerous man, Billy!The referee signals for the bell to begin the match. John Black lays Slane out with some haymaker punches and sends him airborne with a suplex. John Black drops an elbow across the chest of Slane with lightning speed before he can get back up. Slane receives a headbutt and a kick to the midsection and is dropped by a DDT from John Black. John goes for the quick cover. 1...NO! Slane kicks out. Billy: John Black jumped on Slane from the bell with a flurry of moves!Chris Avery: Yeah Stuart Slane looks shook, but he was still able to kick out before the 2 count, Billy!John Black whips Slane across the ring, but Slane ducks the clothesline and takes John down with a big boot. Slane falls to one knee and hits a throat thrust uppercut and then follows it up with a pair of clubbing blows. Slane whips Black across the ring and hits a flapjack into a powerslam. Slane doesn’t go for the pin attempt yet. Slane whips Black across the ring again and hits a running shoulder block. Slane locks in a bear hug. Billy: Slane has that bearhug locked in tight, Chris! Black is starting to fade!Chris Avery: Both of these competitors are big men but that bearhug is still putting a drain on John Black!The referee checks John Black as he goes limp. HIs arm falls once, then twice. On the third time the crowd is rallying behind John Black. He recovers as his arm falls a third time, keeping himself in the match. Slane shakes his head no as Black starts shaking, trying to rally not only the crowd, but himself. John hits a series of elbows to the forehead of Slane and finally Slane releases the bearhug. John Black shoves Slane backwards, who then charges at him and Black drops him with a samoan drop. John Black runs the ropes as Slane gets to his feet and nails a flying clothesline. John Black quickly hops on Slane and applies a crippler crossface. Slane fights it and pulls the pair over to the ropes somehow and grabs it, forcing John Black to release the hold. Billy: Both of these men are fighting for this win!Chris Avery: Yeah, it’s become an honor to not only participate in but also win these DoorDash matches of the week!John Black rakes the eyes of Slane before lifting him up for an old school piledriver! John Black grabs Slane and hits a pumphandle suplex!! Billy: JIGGY PIGGY SLAM TO STUART SLANE!Chris Avery: John covers Stuart!1...2...NO!! Stuart Slane just gets the shoulder up. Billy: John Black looks ready to finish this! He’s got Slane up on his shoulders!Chris Avery: No!! Slane slipped out! Slane lands on his feet and bulldogs John to the ground. Slane hits a rib breaker on John Black before hitting a pumphandle gutbuster. Slane sends Black across the ring with an irish whip and catches him for a side belly to belly suplex that shakes the ring. Black is dropped one more time for a hangman’s neckbreaker. The crowd buzzes... Shadowlove and his (a ton of adjective words here) Miyamoto are on the stage standing perfectly still. John Black rolls over and is staring at them furious. Shadowlove looks at his beautiful girl and she slowly raises her fist up and then a middle finger. The crowd pops as Black's eyes widen. Shadowlove smiles. The spotlight goes out and they disappear on stage. Both men slowly get to their feet and they charge at each other. Slane hits a spear into a lifting one armed spinebuster!! Billy: RUNAWAY SLANE TO JOHN BLACK! He’s laid out on the mat, Chris!!Chris Avery: Slane hooks the leg!1...2...NOOO!! John Black just gets the arm up in time! Slane looks ready to end the match. John Black goes for a clothesline as both competitors get to their feet, but Slane catches him in a half nelson! Billy: Slane is looking to hit his finisher here, Chris!Stuart Slane lifts John Black up in the half nelson and transitions into an Olympic Slam!! Chris Avery: SLANE SLAM TO JOHN BLACK! Slane has the leg hooked!1...2...3!! DING DING DING "Conquistador" by Procol Harum plays through the venue's sound system as Stuart Slane gets to his feet, victorious. Billy: SHITFIRE! What a win for Stuart Slane here tonight! John Black brought all he had here tonight but it wasn’t enough!Chris Avery: Yeah! Big win here tonight for Slane and a great DoorDash Match of the Week as Slane moves on with a victory!
Billy: I think Shadowlove got into the head of John Black if you ask me!! Woioo doggy those boys are gonna put on a show at Evolution 3 aren't they!?

Roy Speede is IN the house!
The lights go out in the arena. After several seconds, words written in a bright white begin flashing on the otherwise blackened out Jumbotron. With each fading word, a new word pops up on the screen. CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW!?! As the last word fades, all five words reappear on the jumbotron at once. CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW!?! Billy: Shitfire, he’s here! ROY SPEEDE IS IN THE HOUSE!The lights slowly come back on as 'Hear Me Now' by Hollywood Undead begins to play through the speakers as Roy Speede steps out on stage. He crosses his arms in an X across his chest, with his right arm underneath his left, and his hands in his fists. He bows his head for several seconds, and his chin rests in the gap between his fists. Chris Avery: Roy is looking like he’s in peak shape here! I think Dandy’s going to be in trouble come Evolution 3!Billy: Good! Dandy is a no good piece of trash!Roy drops his right arm, and raises his left arm in the air, with his pointer finger raised to the sky and the rest of his hand tucked into a fist, posing for the crowd. He drops his arm, and begins jogging to ringside, high-fiving fans as he goes, before climbing onto the apron, and then climbing the outside of the turnbuckle. He raises his left arm, posing as before with his index finger to the sky. He leaps from the turnbuckle into the ring before calling for a mic. The crowd is going bananas for Roy as he lifts the mic to his mouth. The crowd’s noise forces him to pull the mic away and he just gazes out over the capacity crowd with an enormous smile on his face. He lifts the microphone back to his mouth before Roy Speede: That’s a hell of a reception there!The crowd pops again. Roy Speede: You really know how to make a man feel welcome!The crowd pops AGAIN! They fucking love Roy Speede. Roy Speede: So, look, I’ve been getting the same question from fans all over the world since Camila announced that I’d be facing Dandy DiVito at Evolution 3: Why take this match, Roy? What do you have to prove? And look, I get it. I’m Roy Speede. I’m a Hall of Famer. I’m the first ever multiple-time Action Wrestling World Champion, and Dandy? Well, he’s… Dandy. But everyone asking me that question has got it all wrong. I didn’t sign on the dotted line to prove anything. I didn’t sign to come out here and show you all that I’ve still got what it takes. If I was going to do that, you’d see me against a guy like Corey Black, the longest reigning champion in AW history, or my old pal FPV, the most decorated World Champion in the company. But that’s not what I’m here to do. I’ve already proven myself. I don’t need to do it again.The crowd cheers and starts chanting ROY! ROY! ROY! ROY! before that chant evolves into SIL-VER-LINING! *CLAP, CLAP, CLAP-CLAP-CLAP* Roy smiles again before motioning for the crowd to cool it and continuing to talk. Roy Speede: I signed on for this match, because honestly, I haven’t liked what I’ve seen from Dandy and honestly, the way he operates makes me sick!The crowd pops huge. Roy Speede: He has begged or cheated his way into EVERY opportunity he’s had in his entire career. If you’re in his way, he’ll sneak attack you or get some gullible goon to do his dirty work. Dandy is garbage, and I’m going to Evolution to take out the damn trash!Crowd: ROY! ROY! ROY! ROY! Roy Speede: But why wait for Evolution?! DANDY! GET YOUR ASS OUT HERE AND LET’S HANDLE THIS RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW!The arena lights go completely black, and after a moment, “Get Got” by Death Grips plays over the PA. The audience, knowing this means Dandy, boos mercilessly. Through the pitch blackness of the unlit arena, the lights start strobing throughout the house. This happens for about 30 seconds, before the house lights come back up only to reveal Dandy is nowhere to be found. Roy looks around and shrugs to the audience before lifting the mic back to his mouth. Roy Speede: That was a fun practice run, Dandy, but how about you actually come to the ring, you damn coward!“Get Got” by Death Grips starts again, but this time, Yaz walks out onto the stage. The crowd heaps boos and negative energy upon her. Yaz is smiling and laughing at Roy while she holds a microphone. Roy looks at her frustrated. Roy Speede: Uh, you’re not Dandy, Yaz. Yaz: Shocker. I know! Roy Speede: What are you doing here? I don’t want Dandy’s grunt to shot up when the big boy work needs to happen! I want Dandy, damnit!Yaz: Roy, people in hell want ice water, the president just wants Twitter to stop being so darn mean to him, and George Floyd just wanted to breathe. Sometimes, we just don’t get what we want, Roy. The crowd boos Yaz mercilessly. Roy Speede: Why are you here, Yaz?!Yaz: Roy, I take issue with your little rant there. More importantly, my client, Dandy DiVito, takes issue with your little rant. Roy laughs. Roy Speede: Oh yeah?Yaz: Dandy has more than earned everything he’s won in this company. He has made himself the face of the company. He has taken the reigns when people like Ryan Lockhart abandoned their post. He made Alex Richards great again! Without Dandy DiVito, this whole damn company would be in the dumpster you’re talking about putting my client in. Dandy DiVito is the single greatest wrestler and fighter in this damn company, and by electing to accept a match with him, you’ve effectively chosen your the means by which your old, irrelevant career finally fucking dies, Roy.Roy Speede: Is that so?Yaz: Yes, Roy. It is. But beyond all that, Roy, you know what else Dandy is?Roy Speede: Why don’t you enlighten me, Yaz? Tell me. Preach your boy’s gospel. We all know it’s gonna be bullshit anyway…Yaz: Dandy’s the single greatest competitor in this company when it comes to getting in his opponent’s head. Roy looks at her confused as the Tron screen suddenly shows an image of a home. Billy: Oh my god!Chris Avery: Whose house is that, Billy?Billy: That’s… oh my god… That’s ROY’S HOUSE!Roy is clearly bothered by the image, but he’s maintaining his composure. Roy Speede: So you know where I live, Yaz. Is that supposed to bother me? Supposed to get under my skin?! Come on. Anyone can get a picture of a house, Yaz!As Roy says this, Dandy steps out of the off-camera shot with a menacing smile on his face. The camera shoots Dandy from the navel up, his hands remaining low and out of view but Roy’s house crystal clear in the background. Dandy DiVito: Hi, Roy. Wit’ all the protestin’ goin’ on lately, it’s jus’ such a shame they protestors out here burnin’ down houses an’ shit. Dandy’s hands come into the shot. In one hand, he holds a bottle with a rag hanging from it, and in the other, an open Zippo lighter. Roy gets obviously nervous and angry. The tension in the moment is peaked, and the crowd has been overcome with a stunned silence. Roy Speede: Dandy! Don’t you even think about touching my house!Dandy DiVito: Roy, what kind of a monsta do you take me for? You think I’m gonna take this lighter…Dandy opens and flicks the lighter so it’s flaming. Dandy DiVito: An’ flame up this bottle of unknown liquid?!Dandy lights the rag on fire. The flame is big and Dandy holds on to the bottle with a mischievous grin on his face. Roy comes unglued. Roy Speede: DANDY PUT THE FUCKING MOLOTOV DOWN! Dandy DiVito: Man, Roy, they’s lots a ways a mo’fucka can put a bottle down. You prolly wanna be mo’ specific…Roy Speede: Fuck you, Dandy. Do what you’re going to do, but God dammit Dandy! You touch my house and Yaz is gonna pull a Sara Pettis. Do you hear me?!Dandy laughs at Roy’s intensity, but it freaks Yaz out and she disappears backstage. Dandy looks at the camera, still holding the bottle and the scene fades as he says his last line… Dandy DiVito: Bye, Roy, I’ll see you at Evolution 3.Roy is going apoplectic in the ring and he races out of the ring and up the ramp to hunt for Yaz. Chris Avery: This looks to be a very serious situation, folks. Dandy is known to… take things to extremes. If he followed through on his implied threats…Billy: Roy’s goddamn homeless and Evolution will be a lot different than advertised!Chris Avery: For Dandy’s sake and even more so, for Roy’s sake, I hope this was just an elaborate bluff on Dandy’s part. The scene fades to commercial while Billy and Chris look concerned at ringside.

We Come Back
We see the parking lot where Yaz is panicking and running as fast as she can! She jumps into a car already started and waiting for her!! Speede rushes behind her and gets to the car and bangs on the window!! The car hightails it out of there and leaves the parking lot! Speede continues running. We cut to another commercial break.
