Slingshot Red vs.Victoria Travis vs. Matt “Redline” Stevens
The CPW logo flashes across the screen as Damnation and a Day comes on the air.
Ring Announcer Nathan Jacobs:
The following is a TRIPLE THREAT MATCH for the AIR RAID CHAMPIONSHIP!
The arena lights go out.
I see your red door and I want it painted black
No colors any more, I want them to turn black
"Paint it Black [Epic Trailer Version]" by Hidden Citizens plays over the arena. Victoria Travis stands at the top of the ramp in the spotlight, wearing a hooded, sleeveless robe like cloak with her arms crossed over her chest and head down. With a fluid motion, she uncrosses her arms and removes her hood, spreading her arms wide and spraying poison mist. She laughs manically and walks to the ring.
I look inside myself and see my heart is black
Victory Travis climbs the stairs and steps into the ring. She pulls off her robe, spinning it and tossing outside the ring.
No colors any more, I want them to turn black
She lowers her arms and starts stalking back and forth like a predator, her eyes on her opponent.
Ring Announcer Nathan Jacobs:
Introducing first, she is…VICTORIA TRAVIS!!!
Bolt Thomas:
I’m not sure that this is a match that Victoria really wanted to be in, but we know that she loves the opportunity to hurt Slingshot Red…
Aaron Gurst:
That she does! And she’s proven time and time again just how talented she is…
"Come With Me" by P. Diddy ft. Jimmy Page blasts out of the PA System and Matt "Redline" Stevens appears from behind the curtains to a mixed reception from the fans. He smirks and walks out onto the top of the ramp where he raises both his arms above his head and red and white pyro goes off around him. Redline then slowly makes his way down the ramp towards the ring and nods at a few of the fans at ringside as he passes them by. He slides into the ring under the bottom rope, climbs the nearest turnbuckle and looks out into the crowd with a grin on his face. Redline then drops back down from the turnbuckle.
Ring Announcer Nathan Jacobs:
Next, he is…MATT “REDLINE” STEVENS!!!
Bolt Thomas:
No one expected to see Matt Stevens back in a CPW ring, but now that he’s here…
Aaron Gurst:
This is a big chance for him to prove he hasn’t missed a step!
Ring Announcer Nathan Jacobs:
…and finally!
"Up We Go" by Lights begins to play as the lights dim and the stage begins to fill with smoke. A spotlight suddenly lights up the stage, piercing the smoke and illuminating the caped figure of Harper Brooks, "The Incredible MachSpeed Slingshot Red." She nods along with the music for a moment before she raises her cape and begins to hop in place, a red strobe effect beginning to flicker throughout the arena. She begins to make her way down toward the ring, slapping hands with the fans and even stopping to give a few a hug along the way. As she reaches the ring, she climbs in and hops up into the near corner, spreading out her arms and taking in the cheers as her cape seems to flow in an unseen breeze around her. Smiling broadly, she gives the crowd a quick wave as the strobe light stops and the lights brighten back up, and she hops back down, taking off her cape and carefully setting it in the corner.
Ring Announcer Nathan Jacobs:
She is…the INCREDIBLE, MACHSPEED…SLINGSHOT RED!!!
Bolt Thomas:
It’s hard to ignore just how talented and successful Slingshot Red has been, but this might be one of her toughest challenges yet!
Aaron Gurst:
If she wants to be one of the greats…this is an important match for her to win!
The referee looks at all three competitors before calling for the bell, the match and show officially underway. Almost immediately, Victoria Travis charges across the ring and hits Slingshot Red with a forearm smash! Red stumbles from the impact as Victoria hits her with a second shot for good measure! Red stumbles over toward the ropes as Victoria spins her around and immediately uses the ropes to begin choking Slingshot Red! Red’s eyes go wide as the referee tries to warn Victoria, who calmly continues to choke her opponent. The fans boo Victoria loudly.
Aaron Gurst:
There are no rules in a match like this…
Bolt Thomas:
And Victoria Travis has made her intentions clear in the very beginning of this one!
Aaron Gurst:
Unfortunately for her, she’s not the only one in this match!
Sure enough, before Victoria can do any more damage to Red, Redline grabs hold of her from behind. He spins Victoria around and hits her with a European Uppercut! He follows it up with a second to knock Victoria off balance. Slingshot Red scurries back to the corner and tries to catch her breath as Redline grabs hold of Victoria and shoots her across the ring. When she comes back on the rebound, Redline lifts her into the air and delivers a tilt-a-whirl backbreaker! Victoria tries to stumble back up to her feet - clearly in pain from the backbreaker - as Redline leaps into the air and sends her crashing down to the mat with a dropkick!
Bolt Thomas:
It didn’t take much, but…
Aaron Gurst:
Victoria had some tunnel vision, and now Redline is in control of the match!
Redline pauses for a moment. He then turns his attention over toward Slingshot Red and charges at her, trying to hit her with a clothesline in the corner! Red ducks underneath the attempt as Redline crashes into the turnbuckle instead! He stumbles out of the corner as Red springboards off of the ropes and catches Redline on the mouth with a knee shot! Redline tries to stumble back up to his feet - albeit groggily - as Red bounces off of the ropes. She hits Redline on the rebound with a headscissors takedown! The fans are on their feet as Redline staggers to the ropes and tries to regroup. Red smirks and lines herself up with him, when suddenly, Victoria Travis slides into the ring with a steel chair in hand! She BLASTS Red in the back of the head with the chair. The fans once again boo Victoria loudly.
Bolt Thomas:
Once again, Victoria seems to be enjoying the fact that there are no disqualifications in a triple threat match!
Aaron Gurst:
Yeah, but I bet Red doesn’t agree with that assessment!
Victoria tosses the chair aside. She grabs hold of Red and drags her back up to her feet. She mumbles something in Red’s face before setting her up for The Swift End! Before she can plant Red on the mat with it, Redline charges across the ring and sends Victoria stumbling away from Red with a clothesline! Red rolls out to the apron. Redline grabs hold of Victoria and lifts her into the air for a fisherman’s suplex, bridging it into a pin attempt for the…
ONE!
TWO!
Victoria kicks out!
Redline grabs hold of Victoria and brings her back up to her feet. He hits her with a chop to the chest, and then a second. Redline then bounces off of the ropes, but before he can do anything to Victoria on the rebound, she responds by kicking him in the ribs. She glares at him angrily for a moment before snapping off a picture-perfect DDT in the center of the ring! She rolls Redline over and covers him for the…
ONE!
TWO!
TH—NO!
Bolt Thomas:
This has been quite the back and forth match thus far, though you have to wonder if Slingshot Red is okay after that vicious chair shot!
Aaron Gurst:
Well, I don’t think you’ll have to wait long for an answer!
Sure enough, just moments later, Victoria Travis pops back up to her feet - and is hit by a springboard crossbody from Slingshot Red! Red hooks the leg and picks up the…
ONE!
TWO!!
Victoria kicks out in time!
Victoria rolls out of the ring in an effort to regroup. Slingshot Red bounces off of the ropes and charges at Redline in an effort to keep him from getting back into the match. She plants him on the mat with a spike hurricanrana before hooking the leg and picking up the…
ONE!
TWO!
THRE—-NO!
Bolt Thomas:
I really thought Red had it there!
Aaron Gurst:
So did everyone else here!
The fans cheer Red on as she pulls herself back up to her feet. She lines herself up with Redline and waits until he starts to make it back up to his feet. Once he does, she runs at the ropes and tries to hit Redline with a Crimson Flash! Before she can bounce off of the ropes, Victoria Travis pulls down on them, causing Red to slip and hit the mat! Red tries to stumble back up to her feet as Victoria slides into the ring with the Air Raid Championship in her hands. She charges at Red and blasts her with the title! Red falls back to the mat as Victoria places the title down on the mat. She lines Red up with it and grins.
Bolt Thomas:
I don’t want to know what she’s thinking right now…
Aaron Gurst:
Nothing good, I’m sure!
Red is about to reach her feet as Victoria runs at her and tries to line up a Swift End! Before she can do anything, however, Redline grabs hold of Victoria from behind! He spins her around and drives his knee hard into her ribs. Victoria tries to catch her breath as Redline spins her around. He tries to set Victoria up for a Full Throttle on the championship belt! Victoria spins her out of Redline’s grasp and delivers the Swift End onto the title belt! Redline is out cold as Victoria smirks. She turns around to face Slingshot Red - who catches her with a Crimson Flash! Victoria hits the mat and rolls out to the floor. Meanwhile, Slingshot Red bounces off of the ropes and lands on Redline with a MachSpeed Splash! She hooks the leg and picks up the…
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!!!
Ring Announcer Nathan Jacobs:
The winner of this match…SLINGSHOT RED!!!
Bolt Thomas:
She picked her spot and comes away with an impressive victory!
Aaron Gurst:
I’m sure Victoria isn’t happy about that!
Duke & Ava vs.Ripper
Ripper, Ryan and Stephen Ashworth walk through the back, trying to psych themselves up for their match, as they head towards the gorilla position. Divalicious stands in their way.
Candice Cane:
You take those titles, man us guys are totally goin' to be next in line.
Jillian Latto:
Like you can totally count on it, boys.
Divalicious walks off and Ripper continues on. Right before they reach the curtain, they stop. Sang Réal stands right in front of them. Connor Murphy takes off his sunglasses and gives the two a once over. Krown sizes them up and smiles. Sang Réal walks off. Ripper takes a moment to regain their composure and heads into the gorilla position.
Back in the ring Nathan Jacobs stands with the microphone in his hand.
Ring Announcer Nathan Jacobs:
The following Undisputed Triple Crown Tag Team Championship match is scheduled for ONE FALL!
As the scathing guitar riffs of Scorpion Child's "Acid Roulette" through the PA the lights dim down low. On the tron appears the image of Duke and Ava Jupiter standing in front of a massive bonfire. Orange lights come up as Duke and Ava emerge from behind the curtain as smoke fills the entrance way and ring area. Ava holds up a fist lit with red light and Duke smirks and tosses his arms to his sides and his head to the sky. They hold these poses for a moment before stepping into action.
Ring Announcer Nathan Jacobs:
Introducing first, from Indian Lake, New York, they are the CURRENT UNDISPUTED TRIPLE CROWN TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS… DUKE & AVA!!!
Bolt Thomas:
I may not always agree with the way they carry themselves, but you have to admit. This husband and wife duo have been dominant champions, having held these belts without being successfully challenged in almost a calendar year.
Aaron Gurst:
Oh come on, Duke Jupiter is a god among men. Do not insult the Acid King and Queen by bringing up that hiccup.
Bolt Thomas:
It’s not an insult, while short lived… The Maritime Union did defeat them at Super Brawl XX and briefly held the titles.
Aaron Gurst:
Whatever Dolty.
Light Em Up/Radioactive mashup begins to to play. Stephen and Ryan Ashworth come jogging out of the entrance way. Stephen throws his arms out, waving to the crowd to make some noise and trying ot get the crowd behind them while Ryan raises his arms. They go to the center of the ramp, holding up three fingers and begin counting down “Three...Two...One! Lay-on!” while throwing the arm out and lifting a finger for the countdown.
The two walk down to the ring, slapping hands with the fans and then climb the stairs at ringside and head into the ring. They each take a turnbuckle, Ryan looking over the crowd and throwing his arms out, while Stephen again, tries to rally the crowd behind them. Stephen yells out "It's party time!" to the cheering crowd. The two men climb down and exit the ring, giving their headbands to a fan at ringside, then take their jackets and get back into the ring to wait for the match to begin.
Ring Announcer Nathan Jacobs:
And their challengers, from Cape Cod, Massachusetts, they are… RIPPER!!!
The bell rings and Stephen and Ava start off the match. They circle one another, Ava moves her hands in a strange circular motion as if she is casting a spell. The lights flicker briefly before returning to normal and Ava tosses her head back and laughs while Stephen Ashworth doesn’t look amused. Stephen shoots in and attempts a waistlock on Ava, she reverses and brings him to the mat with a Russian legsweep. She kips up and drops an elbow on Stephen before she gets to her feet before Stephen gets to his. Stephen shakes it off and rushes in again, but Ava leaps frogs him and Stephen bounces off of the ropes and runs right toward her, she attempts Hurricanrana but Stephen counters with a powerbomb. He runs and bounces off the ropes and attempts a standing senton, but Ava is able to roll out of the way. Stephen bounces off of the mat with a grimace of pain on his face. Ava gets up and makes the tag to Duke, who enters the ring to a mixed reaction from the crowd.
Bolt Thomas:
An energetic start to the match so far with Ava and Stephen Ashworth.
Aaron Gurst:
A lot of flopping around if you ask me. Here comes the King!
Duke pulls Stephen to his feet and shoots him in the corner. He follows him in and hits him with a big splash, Stephen crumbles in the corner and Duke mounts the first rope, as he begins to rain blows down on Stephen Ashworth. After a ten count from the crowd, the ref warns Duke and he climbs down, letting Stephen fall to the mat. Duke turns his back and taunts the crowd which is beginning to boo him now. Stephen makes the tag to his brother, Ryan who runs at Duke and catches him off guard with a superkick, taking him off of his feet. Ryan wastes no time and hits a leg drop on Duke.
Bolt Thomas:
Duke Jupiter turned his back to Ripper and he ended up paying for it.
Aaron Gurst:
These peons need to be careful around royalty.
Ryan pulls Duke to his feet and attempts a belly-to-back suplex but Duke catches him with an elbow to the face before he turns around and catches Ryan with an atomic drop. Ryan pops and Duke follows up with a snap suplex. He stands up and listens to the crowd, reveling in the jeers and boos. He turns and slowly makes his way to the corner, making the tag to Ava as Ryan gets to his feet and shakes off the suplex. Ava smiles at her opponent as she approaches, she extends a hand and as Ryan goes to shake hers, she pulls hers back and flips him off. Ryan shakes his head and grapples with Ava, pushing her back into a neutral corner. He back-ups and hits her with a chest chop that echoes through the arena. Ava clutches at her chest and Ryan winds up for another chop but Ava hits him with an eye poke. He stumbles backward holding his eye and Ava runs at him hitting him with a tornado DDT.
Bolt Thomas:
Is this referee paying attention? That was an illegal move from Ava.
Aaron Gurst:
C’mon, Dolty… Duke & Ava are above the law.
Ava pulls Ryan to his feet and she whips him into the ropes, she runs and bounces off the opposite and meets him in the center of the with a sling blade, but Ryan reverses it into an STO.
He covers.
ONE…
TWO…
DUKE BREAKS THE PIN!
Ryan tags in his brother while the referee sends Duke back to his corner. Stephen runs in and drops an elbow on Ava, before he pops back up to his feet and pulls Ava up, taking her down with a snapmare before following up with a superkick.
He covers.
ONE..
TWO..
KICKOUT!
Bolt Thomas:
Ripper are looking to pick up the win early, their first attempt was broken up by Duke and Ava showed she’s got more in the tank by kicking out of the second.
Aaron Gurst:
They are cheating! Trying to catch the champions off guard!
Bolt Thomas:
They aren’t cheating, they are trying to win.
Aaron Gurst:
Not with honor!
Bolt Thomas:
Since when do you care about honor? You know what, don’t answer that. I don’t want to even entertain what you just said.
Stephen pulls Ava to her feet again and he hits her with a jab, followed by another, he winds up for a clothesline but Ava ducks under it and delivers a swift kick to the gut. She whips Stephen into her corner and tags Duke. They hit the Stonebreaker! Ava exits the ring. Stephen lays on the mat motionless.
Bolt Thomas:
The champions may have just retained here.
Aaron Gurst:
I knew this was going to happen.
Duke once again begins to taunt the crowd.
Bolt Thomas:
Why isn’t he covering?
Aaron Gurst:
He wants to play with his food.
Duke turns around and pulls Stephen to his feet before he hits him with a headbutt. Stephen stumbles back and Duke drops him with a ripcord clothesline.
Duke turns back to the crowd as Stephen hits the mat and rolls close enough to his corner that Ryan is able to reach in and tag himself. Ryan climbs the ropes and as Duke turns around he is taken down with a missile dropkick.
Ryan covers.
ONE…
TWO…
AVA BREAKS UP THE PIN!
Bolt Thomas:
Another near fall by Ripper.
Aaron Gurst:
Near falls only count in hand grenades and horseshoes, Dolty.
Ryan pulls Duke to his feet and whips him into the ropes, he catches Duke on the return with a superkick. He pulls Duke to his feet and hits him with a swinging neckbreaker before he signals the crowd for the Wicked.
Bolt Thomas:
The crowd is on their feet!
Aaron Gurst:
No respect.
Ryan pulls Duke in for the Wicked but Duke reverses with a back body drop. He stomps on Ryan a few times before he pulls him and whips him into a neutral corner. Duke runs and shoots in for the Psychedelic Ex-spear-ience but Ryan dodges it and Duke slams into the ringpost. Ryan pulls him out of the corner and hoists him on his shoulders before soamoan dropping him to the mat. Ryan pulls Duke up and leads him into Ripper’s corner. Ryan makes the tag and Ripper hits the Wicked Pissah!
Stephen makes the cover.
ONE…
TWO…
TH-NO!!!
Duke gets the shoulder up and Ava runs in and knocks Stephen off his feet with a running low dropkick. The referee warns her and she is led out of the ring as Duke lays motionless on the mat. Stephen is on his feet first and he rushes at Duke as he gets to his feet, Duke snaps off the Electric Ladyland! Stephen lays crumbled up on the mat while Duke gets to his feet and instead of going for the pin, he stops and once again turns to the crowd as they rain boos down on him.
Stephen sits up, fighting the through the pain and shakes his head before he runs up behind Duke and rolls him up with a pin.
ONE…
TWO…
AVA BREAKS THE PIN AGAIN!
Ava exits the ring and she pounds on the ropes, Duke pulls from his reserves and dives to make the tag. Ava steps through the ropes and meets Stephen in the center of the ring with a hard right. He stumbles back and Ava hits him with an enziguri. Ava climbs to the top-rope and leaps off with a frog splash but Stephen rolls out of the way and makes the tag as Ava bounces off of the mat holding her ribs. Ryan runs into the ring with a DDT. He motions for the Pissah and climbs the ropes leaping off and hits a top-rope Pissah. He makes the cover.
ONE…
TWO…
Duke steps through the ropes but is met with a superkick from Stephen.
THREE!!!
Bolt Thomas:
And Ripper has done it!
Bolt Thomas:
Bullshit! They cheated!
Ring Announcer Nathan Jacobs:
You winners are new UNDISPUTED TRIPLE CROWN TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS… RIPPER!!!
The referee hands them the belt and Ryan and Stephen fall to their knees in celebration.
Mighty Frank vs. Denni Summers
Bolt Thomas:
Well, this is a bit of an interesting one…
Aaron Gurst:
Both of these wrestlers think that they have something to prove, and that makes this a lot of fun!
Ring Announcer Nathan Jacobs:
The following match is scheduled for ONE FALL!
"Open Your Eyes" fills the arena, the lighting darkening as a flashing strobe effect picks up. Denni Summers steps out into the entryway, a smirk on her face. She takes a cocky little bow, smiling at the positive crowd reaction before heading down toward the ring. On the way down, she slaps hands with a few fans as she passes, clapping a bit to get them cheering louder. She climbs into the ring upon reaching it, heading to the center, and gives her hips a shake to rile up the crowd even more. Grinning at the cheering from the crowd, she gives her ass a slap, then heads to her corner, leaning against it as she waits for the match to begin.
Ring Announcer Nathan Jacobs:
Introducing first, she is…DENNI SUMMERS!!!
Bolt Thomas:
You’d think that this is a match that Denni will do well in! She’s in the ring against a man that doesn’t necessarily rely on submissions…
Aaron Gurst:
No, but he IS someone that hits hard! And that’s not an easy thing for Denni to counter! Or anyone, really.
Ring Announcer Nathan Jacobs:
And her opponent…
The flute introduces "Remember To Breathe" by Sturgill Simpson plays through-out the arena while the lights dim real low. Mighty Frank appears inside the light of a single spotlight, carrying his trusty golden hammer, an unlit cigar poking out from between his teeth. He is wearing a black t-shirt that reads, KEEP HAMMERIN'. He stops on the rampway as the drums kick in. Frank kneels and sets his hammer down on the rampway.
He lifts his arms over his head and suddenly a single streamer blast appears on the left side of the rampway. Frank looks at the pyro for a seconds before he steps closer and leans in, lighting the cigar between his teeth off of the pyrotechnics. After the first chorus, lightning flashes on the tron behind Mighty Frank. The lightning looks to strike the hammer and then the hammer glows. Frank takes a puff from his cigar, picking up his glowing hammer before heading to the ring. On his way to the ring, he puts out his cigar when he hands the officials his hammer.
Ring Announcer Nathan Jacobs:
…he is, MIGHTY FRANK!!!
Bolt Thomas:
I think a lot of people forget just how ‘mighty’ this man can be!
Aaron Gurst:
Yeah, well…that’s their loss. And if Denni is writing him off, it’s gonna be her loss, too!
The two wrestlers stare each other down as the referee calls for the bell and the match is officially underway. Almost immediately, Denni runs across the ring and takes the fight to Mighty Frank - hitting him in the mouth with a forearm smash, and then a second, and then a third. The fans cheer her on as Denni bounces off of the ropes, perhaps lining Mighty Frank up for a Taste of Perfection! Unfortunately for her, Mighty Frank has other ideas - running forward and cutting Denni off with a HUGE clothesline! Denni crashes hard to the mat as Mighty Frank drags her back up to her feet. He hits her with a clubbing elbow smash that sends Denni stumbling back to the ropes. She grabs hold of them to keep herself upright as Mighty Frank charges at her and sends Denni out to the floor with a second clothesline! Denni hits the floor with a thud as Mighty Frank holds his arms up in the air!
Bolt Thomas:
This one has started off as a bit of a brawl, which isn’t quite what I’d have expected from these two…
Aaron Gurst:
Sounds like a bit of a personal problem, Dolty. This is EXACTLY what I expected from these two!
Denni slowly stumbles back up to her feet as Mighty Frank heads out to the floor. He quickly closes the gap between himself and Denni, kicking her in the ribs and then hoisting her up into the air. He holds her there - effortlessly - for a moment, before slamming her down to the floor with a vertical suplex! The fans gasp at the impact as Denni arches her back in pain. Mighty Frank pulls himself back up to his feet and stares Denni down. He mouths that he’s gonna keep her down before grabbing her by the air. The referee is counting away in the ring, as Mighty Frank lines Denni up with the steel stairs. He pauses for a moment before charging at the stairs with Denni in hand! Just before Mighty Frank can throw Denni into the steps, she reverses his momentum and sends Frank flying into the stairs instead! Frank hits them with a THUD as the fans cheer for the continued show of violence! Frank briefly slumps against the stairs as Denni comes flying in and hits Frank with a Taste of Perfection that bounces his head off of the steps!
Bolt Thomas:
Did you hear that impact? Ouch!
Aaron Gurst:
I don’t know how Mighty Frank is going to get back up after that one!
Bolt Thomas:
Looks like Denni took quite a bit out of herself with that, too!
Denni tries to rub the pain out of her hip on the floor, clearly feeling the effects of her attack! Nonetheless, she appears to be in better shape than Mighty Frank, who remains slumped against the stairs! The referee continues to count the two wrestlers out of the match. The fans try to cheer the two of them on as Denni finally starts to stir. She goes to try and make her back into the ring - perhaps to break up the count - when suddenly, Mighty Frank grabs hold of her from behind. He gathers his strength and LAUNCHES Denni into the ring post! Denni’s head bounces off of it as she falls to the floor. Mighty Frank briefly contemplates stepping back into the ring before changing his mind and instead dragging Denni up to her feet. He tosses her into the crowd and follows in close pursuit as the referee calls for the bell and the match is officially tossed out by the referee.
Bolt Thomas:
The referee just called for a double countout in this one, but…
Aaron Gurst:
I’m not sure that either of these wrestlers actually cares! Looks like their fun is just beginning!
Denni stumbles back up to her feet in the crowd. Once she’s standing, Mighty Frank runs at her and delivers a hard right hand that knocks Denni right back down. Fans start to swarm around the two of them as security hurries over and tries to break it up. Denni reaches out and grabs a fan’s drink in the middle of the chaos. Mighty Frank goes to grab hold of Denni and she throws the drink in his face! The fans cheer their involvement in the brawl as Mighty Frank stumbles for just a moment - allowing Denni to hit him with another Taste of Perfection in the crowd! Frank falls to the concrete floor as Denni takes a moment to regain her energy and recover a bit.
Aaron Gurst:
That was incredibly rude of Denni! Do you have any idea how much drinks cost nowadays? A lot!
Bolt Thomas:
Either way, that was the kind of opening that Denni needed to stay alive in this brawl!
Denni stumbles further into the crowd toward the show’s AV equipment. Mighty Frank drags himself to his feet and chases after her. Mighty Frank heads toward the equipment and charges at Denni at full speed! Just before he can do anything to her, Denni winds back and throws a steel chair at Frank’s head! The chair bounces off of his head and falls to the floor. A cut opens up on Frank’s head as blood trickles down his face. Frank staggers back groggily, but the feeling of his own blood seemingly gives him a bit of an adrenaline rush. Denni’s eyes go wide in a panic as Mighty Frank charges at her once again. This time, he nearly takes her head off with a massive lariat that causes every fan in the area to gasp.
Bolt Thomas:
Denni might’ve drawn first blood, but…
Aaron Gurst:
After a clothesline like that, she definitely hasn’t won the exchange!
Denni tries to stumble back up to her feet, but Mighty Frank is ready for her. He effortlessly powers her into the air and delivers a vicious powerbomb onto an equipment case! Denni lies motionless on the case as Mighty Frank wipes the blood away from his face. He lifts an arm into the air as the fans give him a rather mixed reaction. He smirks as he glances down at Denni, fully expecting her to still be out of it. Much to his surprise, she pulls herself off of the equipment case and stumbles toward him, hitting Mighty Frank with a weak forearm shot! She follows it up with a second. Mighty Frank responds by blasting Denni with an elbow smash. He then shakes his head and walks her over to the equipment case once again. This time, he tries to set Denni up for a SENKO DOMINATION on the case - though Denni manages to squirm out of his grasp! She grabs a monitor off of the case and BLASTS Mighty Frank with it, causing him to stumble back in pain!
Bolt Thomas:
I don’t know how she’s still fighting after what she’s been through!
Aaron Gurst:
She’s a lot tougher than she gets credit for being!
Mighty Frank before slumps against the equipment case as Denni bounces his head off of it! She then takes a few steps back and charges at Mighty Frank - hitting him with a knee strike that bounces his head off of the case! Frank falls to the concrete as the case begins to roll away from the two of them. Denni turns and gives her hips a shake, playing to the crowd and letting them know that she’s still got plenty of fight left in her!
Bolt Thomas:
I know this wasn’t an official match at this point, but she seems like she’s the winner at the moment!
Aaron Gurst:
I don’t know about that…
Sure enough, Denni turns to further her gloating. Suddenly, Mighty Frank wallops her with a right hand! Denni stumbles as Mighty Frank grabs her hair and drags her back over toward the equipment case! He grabs hold of some of the wires that are coming out of it and wraps one around Denni’s neck. He begins to pull back on it in an effort to choke her out, blood trickling down his face and landing in Denni’s hair. Before he can fully start to choke her out, she panics and yells out for Frank to let her go.
Bolt Thomas:
These two really don’t like each other…
Frank drops the wire and causes Denni to fall to the floor. He turns around and wipes the blood off of his face. He raises an arm in the air to celebrate his perceived victory - when suddenly, Denni yells out! Frank turns around and Denni charges at him - throwing both of them down off of the platform they’re on and through a stack of tables that were on the floor with various monitors and other equipment! Sparks fly from the monitors as both wrestlers are out cold in the wreckage.
Crowd:
HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT!
Medical personnel immediately run out from the back to check on both Frank and Denni.
Bolt Thomas:
Mighty Frank got Denni to seemingly quit when he tried to choke her, but…
Aaron Gurst:
She used whatever fight she had left to take them both out!
Bolt Thomas:
I just hope the two of them are okay, but I get the feeling that things are just getting started with these two!
Nightmare vs. Kelly James vs. Disturbed vs. Francisco Lopez vs Miss Daisy Jones vs. Joe Summers
Ring Announcer Nathan Jacobs:
The following contest is the Elimination Chamber and it is for the CPW Xtreme Chaos Championship!
"I'm Too Virtuous" Akira Yamaoka plays as Miss Daisy Jones makes her way to the Chamber enters and then goes to the first available pod, the door closing behind her.
Ring Announcer Nathan Jacobs:
Introducing first, weighing in at 119 pounds, she comes to us from "Your Local High School" MISS DAISY JONES!!!
Bolt Thomas:
The fan can’t stand this woman.
Aaron Gurst:
How dare you and everyone else disrespect out the l;ike thi!
Bolt Thomas:
It’s the truth.
Aaron Gurst:
You will be held after class for sure!
The house lights cut out as the opening of “Press F” by Attack Attack! begins to play around the arena as the strobes begin to flash in hues of purple to the beat of the bass and drums. At the 18second mark of the song as the lyrics kick in we watch as Nightmare make his way onto the stage. His head cloaked by the zipped black hoodie he wears; we watch as he takes a few steps forward before looking out at the crowd. Turning his back he pauses for a moment before beginning to walk backwards towards the structure while looking up at the arena tron. After a few steps he turns around and sprints the rest of the way to the Chamber and quickly scales the steps and goes through the door. Once inside the ring, we watch as Nightmare goes to the far right turnbuckle and stands atop the 2nd rope and unzips his hoodie to display his title before unbuckling it and letting it fall to the ground. As he looks out at the crowd Nightmare throws his arms up in an X under his chin before extending his arms out to flip off the crowd before looking down at the belt before entering the second pod and sitting cross-legged inside it.

“Lords of War” by Otep hits and Shamaya leads her man, the monster Disturbed out onto the stage. The two kiss and then Shamaya takes her leave as Disturbed stalks to the ring. He enters the structure and glares around. He looks hatefully at Miss Daisy Jones and Nightmare and then walks over to the third pod, entering and allowing the door to close behind him.
Ring Announcer Nathan Jacobs:

Aaron Gurst:
Not when he’s angry. You wouldn’t like him when he’s angry!
“Wayward One” starts playing as the lights turn Blue and Silver. 12 seconds into the song, Francisco Lopez appears on the stage, surrounded by smoke. He slowly makes his way to the ring, staring at his battleground as he walks around the ring. He enters the structure and nods as he goes to the last available pod. He steps inside, the door closing behind him.
Ring Announcer Nathan Jacobs:
Weighing in at 225 pounds and hailing from Hartford, Connecticut, FRANCISCO LOPEZ!!!

Aaron Gurst:

The sound of an engine starting can be heard as "Saturday Night" by the Kaiser Chiefs hits the sound system. "The Apex" Kelly James appears at the top of the ramp, waving a checkered flag as she stands and smiles at the crowd. She makes her way down to the ring, slapping hands with the fans as she passes, then climbs into the structure and steps up into the corner, waving the flag high above her head and waving to the crowd. She then hops down, setting the flag down in the corner and beginning to stretch as she awaits the start of the match.
Ring Announcer Nathan Jacobs:

Aaron Gurst:

Blue lights strobe around the arena as the opening riffs of "Elevation" hit the arena sound system. The fans rise to their feet in anticipation. Suddenly, the opening drums of "Nothing Left" pound the sound system as Joe Summers comes running out from the back. He stands at the top of the ramp, looking focused as ever. The fans cheer loudly and show their support as Joe runs back and forth across the top of the ramp, calling for them to get even louder. He then smirks and makes his way down to the ring, slapping hands with the fans in the front row on his way. Joe slides into the ring and pops back up to his feet, soaking in the crowd reaction. He takes a deep breath and leans against the rope as he waits for the match to begin.

The CPW logo flashes across the screen as Damnation and a Day comes on the air.
Ring Announcer Nathan Jacobs:
The following is a TRIPLE THREAT MATCH for the AIR RAID CHAMPIONSHIP!
The arena lights go out.
I see your red door and I want it painted black
No colors any more, I want them to turn black
"Paint it Black [Epic Trailer Version]" by Hidden Citizens plays over the arena. Victoria Travis stands at the top of the ramp in the spotlight, wearing a hooded, sleeveless robe like cloak with her arms crossed over her chest and head down. With a fluid motion, she uncrosses her arms and removes her hood, spreading her arms wide and spraying poison mist. She laughs manically and walks to the ring.
I look inside myself and see my heart is black
Victory Travis climbs the stairs and steps into the ring. She pulls off her robe, spinning it and tossing outside the ring.
No colors any more, I want them to turn black
She lowers her arms and starts stalking back and forth like a predator, her eyes on her opponent.
Ring Announcer Nathan Jacobs:
Introducing first, she is…VICTORIA TRAVIS!!!
Bolt Thomas:
I’m not sure that this is a match that Victoria really wanted to be in, but we know that she loves the opportunity to hurt Slingshot Red…
Aaron Gurst:
That she does! And she’s proven time and time again just how talented she is…
"Come With Me" by P. Diddy ft. Jimmy Page blasts out of the PA System and Matt "Redline" Stevens appears from behind the curtains to a mixed reception from the fans. He smirks and walks out onto the top of the ramp where he raises both his arms above his head and red and white pyro goes off around him. Redline then slowly makes his way down the ramp towards the ring and nods at a few of the fans at ringside as he passes them by. He slides into the ring under the bottom rope, climbs the nearest turnbuckle and looks out into the crowd with a grin on his face. Redline then drops back down from the turnbuckle.
Ring Announcer Nathan Jacobs:
Next, he is…MATT “REDLINE” STEVENS!!!
Bolt Thomas:
No one expected to see Matt Stevens back in a CPW ring, but now that he’s here…
Aaron Gurst:
This is a big chance for him to prove he hasn’t missed a step!
Ring Announcer Nathan Jacobs:
…and finally!
"Up We Go" by Lights begins to play as the lights dim and the stage begins to fill with smoke. A spotlight suddenly lights up the stage, piercing the smoke and illuminating the caped figure of Harper Brooks, "The Incredible MachSpeed Slingshot Red." She nods along with the music for a moment before she raises her cape and begins to hop in place, a red strobe effect beginning to flicker throughout the arena. She begins to make her way down toward the ring, slapping hands with the fans and even stopping to give a few a hug along the way. As she reaches the ring, she climbs in and hops up into the near corner, spreading out her arms and taking in the cheers as her cape seems to flow in an unseen breeze around her. Smiling broadly, she gives the crowd a quick wave as the strobe light stops and the lights brighten back up, and she hops back down, taking off her cape and carefully setting it in the corner.
Ring Announcer Nathan Jacobs:
She is…the INCREDIBLE, MACHSPEED…SLINGSHOT RED!!!
Bolt Thomas:
It’s hard to ignore just how talented and successful Slingshot Red has been, but this might be one of her toughest challenges yet!
Aaron Gurst:
If she wants to be one of the greats…this is an important match for her to win!
The referee looks at all three competitors before calling for the bell, the match and show officially underway. Almost immediately, Victoria Travis charges across the ring and hits Slingshot Red with a forearm smash! Red stumbles from the impact as Victoria hits her with a second shot for good measure! Red stumbles over toward the ropes as Victoria spins her around and immediately uses the ropes to begin choking Slingshot Red! Red’s eyes go wide as the referee tries to warn Victoria, who calmly continues to choke her opponent. The fans boo Victoria loudly.
Aaron Gurst:
There are no rules in a match like this…
Bolt Thomas:
And Victoria Travis has made her intentions clear in the very beginning of this one!
Aaron Gurst:
Unfortunately for her, she’s not the only one in this match!
Sure enough, before Victoria can do any more damage to Red, Redline grabs hold of her from behind. He spins Victoria around and hits her with a European Uppercut! He follows it up with a second to knock Victoria off balance. Slingshot Red scurries back to the corner and tries to catch her breath as Redline grabs hold of Victoria and shoots her across the ring. When she comes back on the rebound, Redline lifts her into the air and delivers a tilt-a-whirl backbreaker! Victoria tries to stumble back up to her feet - clearly in pain from the backbreaker - as Redline leaps into the air and sends her crashing down to the mat with a dropkick!
Bolt Thomas:
It didn’t take much, but…
Aaron Gurst:
Victoria had some tunnel vision, and now Redline is in control of the match!
Redline pauses for a moment. He then turns his attention over toward Slingshot Red and charges at her, trying to hit her with a clothesline in the corner! Red ducks underneath the attempt as Redline crashes into the turnbuckle instead! He stumbles out of the corner as Red springboards off of the ropes and catches Redline on the mouth with a knee shot! Redline tries to stumble back up to his feet - albeit groggily - as Red bounces off of the ropes. She hits Redline on the rebound with a headscissors takedown! The fans are on their feet as Redline staggers to the ropes and tries to regroup. Red smirks and lines herself up with him, when suddenly, Victoria Travis slides into the ring with a steel chair in hand! She BLASTS Red in the back of the head with the chair. The fans once again boo Victoria loudly.
Bolt Thomas:
Once again, Victoria seems to be enjoying the fact that there are no disqualifications in a triple threat match!
Aaron Gurst:
Yeah, but I bet Red doesn’t agree with that assessment!
Victoria tosses the chair aside. She grabs hold of Red and drags her back up to her feet. She mumbles something in Red’s face before setting her up for The Swift End! Before she can plant Red on the mat with it, Redline charges across the ring and sends Victoria stumbling away from Red with a clothesline! Red rolls out to the apron. Redline grabs hold of Victoria and lifts her into the air for a fisherman’s suplex, bridging it into a pin attempt for the…
ONE!
TWO!
Victoria kicks out!
Redline grabs hold of Victoria and brings her back up to her feet. He hits her with a chop to the chest, and then a second. Redline then bounces off of the ropes, but before he can do anything to Victoria on the rebound, she responds by kicking him in the ribs. She glares at him angrily for a moment before snapping off a picture-perfect DDT in the center of the ring! She rolls Redline over and covers him for the…
ONE!
TWO!
TH—NO!
Bolt Thomas:
This has been quite the back and forth match thus far, though you have to wonder if Slingshot Red is okay after that vicious chair shot!
Aaron Gurst:
Well, I don’t think you’ll have to wait long for an answer!
Sure enough, just moments later, Victoria Travis pops back up to her feet - and is hit by a springboard crossbody from Slingshot Red! Red hooks the leg and picks up the…
ONE!
TWO!!
Victoria kicks out in time!
Victoria rolls out of the ring in an effort to regroup. Slingshot Red bounces off of the ropes and charges at Redline in an effort to keep him from getting back into the match. She plants him on the mat with a spike hurricanrana before hooking the leg and picking up the…
ONE!
TWO!
THRE—-NO!
Bolt Thomas:
I really thought Red had it there!
Aaron Gurst:
So did everyone else here!
The fans cheer Red on as she pulls herself back up to her feet. She lines herself up with Redline and waits until he starts to make it back up to his feet. Once he does, she runs at the ropes and tries to hit Redline with a Crimson Flash! Before she can bounce off of the ropes, Victoria Travis pulls down on them, causing Red to slip and hit the mat! Red tries to stumble back up to her feet as Victoria slides into the ring with the Air Raid Championship in her hands. She charges at Red and blasts her with the title! Red falls back to the mat as Victoria places the title down on the mat. She lines Red up with it and grins.
Bolt Thomas:
I don’t want to know what she’s thinking right now…
Aaron Gurst:
Nothing good, I’m sure!
Red is about to reach her feet as Victoria runs at her and tries to line up a Swift End! Before she can do anything, however, Redline grabs hold of Victoria from behind! He spins her around and drives his knee hard into her ribs. Victoria tries to catch her breath as Redline spins her around. He tries to set Victoria up for a Full Throttle on the championship belt! Victoria spins her out of Redline’s grasp and delivers the Swift End onto the title belt! Redline is out cold as Victoria smirks. She turns around to face Slingshot Red - who catches her with a Crimson Flash! Victoria hits the mat and rolls out to the floor. Meanwhile, Slingshot Red bounces off of the ropes and lands on Redline with a MachSpeed Splash! She hooks the leg and picks up the…
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!!!
Ring Announcer Nathan Jacobs:
The winner of this match…SLINGSHOT RED!!!
Bolt Thomas:
She picked her spot and comes away with an impressive victory!
Aaron Gurst:
I’m sure Victoria isn’t happy about that!
Duke & Ava vs.Ripper
Ripper, Ryan and Stephen Ashworth walk through the back, trying to psych themselves up for their match, as they head towards the gorilla position. Divalicious stands in their way.
Candice Cane:
You take those titles, man us guys are totally goin' to be next in line.
Jillian Latto:
Like you can totally count on it, boys.
Divalicious walks off and Ripper continues on. Right before they reach the curtain, they stop. Sang Réal stands right in front of them. Connor Murphy takes off his sunglasses and gives the two a once over. Krown sizes them up and smiles. Sang Réal walks off. Ripper takes a moment to regain their composure and heads into the gorilla position.
Back in the ring Nathan Jacobs stands with the microphone in his hand.
Ring Announcer Nathan Jacobs:
The following Undisputed Triple Crown Tag Team Championship match is scheduled for ONE FALL!
As the scathing guitar riffs of Scorpion Child's "Acid Roulette" through the PA the lights dim down low. On the tron appears the image of Duke and Ava Jupiter standing in front of a massive bonfire. Orange lights come up as Duke and Ava emerge from behind the curtain as smoke fills the entrance way and ring area. Ava holds up a fist lit with red light and Duke smirks and tosses his arms to his sides and his head to the sky. They hold these poses for a moment before stepping into action.
Ring Announcer Nathan Jacobs:
Introducing first, from Indian Lake, New York, they are the CURRENT UNDISPUTED TRIPLE CROWN TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS… DUKE & AVA!!!
Bolt Thomas:
I may not always agree with the way they carry themselves, but you have to admit. This husband and wife duo have been dominant champions, having held these belts without being successfully challenged in almost a calendar year.
Aaron Gurst:
Oh come on, Duke Jupiter is a god among men. Do not insult the Acid King and Queen by bringing up that hiccup.
Bolt Thomas:
It’s not an insult, while short lived… The Maritime Union did defeat them at Super Brawl XX and briefly held the titles.
Aaron Gurst:
Whatever Dolty.
Light Em Up/Radioactive mashup begins to to play. Stephen and Ryan Ashworth come jogging out of the entrance way. Stephen throws his arms out, waving to the crowd to make some noise and trying ot get the crowd behind them while Ryan raises his arms. They go to the center of the ramp, holding up three fingers and begin counting down “Three...Two...One! Lay-on!” while throwing the arm out and lifting a finger for the countdown.
The two walk down to the ring, slapping hands with the fans and then climb the stairs at ringside and head into the ring. They each take a turnbuckle, Ryan looking over the crowd and throwing his arms out, while Stephen again, tries to rally the crowd behind them. Stephen yells out "It's party time!" to the cheering crowd. The two men climb down and exit the ring, giving their headbands to a fan at ringside, then take their jackets and get back into the ring to wait for the match to begin.
Ring Announcer Nathan Jacobs:
And their challengers, from Cape Cod, Massachusetts, they are… RIPPER!!!
The bell rings and Stephen and Ava start off the match. They circle one another, Ava moves her hands in a strange circular motion as if she is casting a spell. The lights flicker briefly before returning to normal and Ava tosses her head back and laughs while Stephen Ashworth doesn’t look amused. Stephen shoots in and attempts a waistlock on Ava, she reverses and brings him to the mat with a Russian legsweep. She kips up and drops an elbow on Stephen before she gets to her feet before Stephen gets to his. Stephen shakes it off and rushes in again, but Ava leaps frogs him and Stephen bounces off of the ropes and runs right toward her, she attempts Hurricanrana but Stephen counters with a powerbomb. He runs and bounces off the ropes and attempts a standing senton, but Ava is able to roll out of the way. Stephen bounces off of the mat with a grimace of pain on his face. Ava gets up and makes the tag to Duke, who enters the ring to a mixed reaction from the crowd.
Bolt Thomas:
An energetic start to the match so far with Ava and Stephen Ashworth.
Aaron Gurst:
A lot of flopping around if you ask me. Here comes the King!
Duke pulls Stephen to his feet and shoots him in the corner. He follows him in and hits him with a big splash, Stephen crumbles in the corner and Duke mounts the first rope, as he begins to rain blows down on Stephen Ashworth. After a ten count from the crowd, the ref warns Duke and he climbs down, letting Stephen fall to the mat. Duke turns his back and taunts the crowd which is beginning to boo him now. Stephen makes the tag to his brother, Ryan who runs at Duke and catches him off guard with a superkick, taking him off of his feet. Ryan wastes no time and hits a leg drop on Duke.
Bolt Thomas:
Duke Jupiter turned his back to Ripper and he ended up paying for it.
Aaron Gurst:
These peons need to be careful around royalty.
Ryan pulls Duke to his feet and attempts a belly-to-back suplex but Duke catches him with an elbow to the face before he turns around and catches Ryan with an atomic drop. Ryan pops and Duke follows up with a snap suplex. He stands up and listens to the crowd, reveling in the jeers and boos. He turns and slowly makes his way to the corner, making the tag to Ava as Ryan gets to his feet and shakes off the suplex. Ava smiles at her opponent as she approaches, she extends a hand and as Ryan goes to shake hers, she pulls hers back and flips him off. Ryan shakes his head and grapples with Ava, pushing her back into a neutral corner. He back-ups and hits her with a chest chop that echoes through the arena. Ava clutches at her chest and Ryan winds up for another chop but Ava hits him with an eye poke. He stumbles backward holding his eye and Ava runs at him hitting him with a tornado DDT.
Bolt Thomas:
Is this referee paying attention? That was an illegal move from Ava.
Aaron Gurst:
C’mon, Dolty… Duke & Ava are above the law.
Ava pulls Ryan to his feet and she whips him into the ropes, she runs and bounces off the opposite and meets him in the center of the with a sling blade, but Ryan reverses it into an STO.
He covers.

Bolt Thomas:
Ripper are looking to pick up the win early, their first attempt was broken up by Duke and Ava showed she’s got more in the tank by kicking out of the second.
Aaron Gurst:
They are cheating! Trying to catch the champions off guard!
Bolt Thomas:
They aren’t cheating, they are trying to win.
Aaron Gurst:
Not with honor!
Bolt Thomas:
Since when do you care about honor? You know what, don’t answer that. I don’t want to even entertain what you just said.
Stephen pulls Ava to her feet again and he hits her with a jab, followed by another, he winds up for a clothesline but Ava ducks under it and delivers a swift kick to the gut. She whips Stephen into her corner and tags Duke. They hit the Stonebreaker! Ava exits the ring. Stephen lays on the mat motionless.
Bolt Thomas:
The champions may have just retained here.
Aaron Gurst:
I knew this was going to happen.
Duke once again begins to taunt the crowd.
Bolt Thomas:
Why isn’t he covering?
Aaron Gurst:
He wants to play with his food.
Duke turns around and pulls Stephen to his feet before he hits him with a headbutt. Stephen stumbles back and Duke drops him with a ripcord clothesline.
Duke turns back to the crowd as Stephen hits the mat and rolls close enough to his corner that Ryan is able to reach in and tag himself. Ryan climbs the ropes and as Duke turns around he is taken down with a missile dropkick.
Ryan covers.
ONE…
TWO…
AVA BREAKS UP THE PIN!
Bolt Thomas:
Another near fall by Ripper.
Aaron Gurst:
Near falls only count in hand grenades and horseshoes, Dolty.
Ryan pulls Duke to his feet and whips him into the ropes, he catches Duke on the return with a superkick. He pulls Duke to his feet and hits him with a swinging neckbreaker before he signals the crowd for the Wicked.
Bolt Thomas:
The crowd is on their feet!
Aaron Gurst:
No respect.
Ryan pulls Duke in for the Wicked but Duke reverses with a back body drop. He stomps on Ryan a few times before he pulls him and whips him into a neutral corner. Duke runs and shoots in for the Psychedelic Ex-spear-ience but Ryan dodges it and Duke slams into the ringpost. Ryan pulls him out of the corner and hoists him on his shoulders before soamoan dropping him to the mat. Ryan pulls Duke up and leads him into Ripper’s corner. Ryan makes the tag and Ripper hits the Wicked Pissah!
Stephen makes the cover.

Stephen lays crumbled up on the mat while Duke gets to his feet and instead of going for the pin, he stops and once again turns to the crowd as they rain boos down on him.
Stephen sits up, fighting the through the pain and shakes his head before he runs up behind Duke and rolls him up with a pin.
ONE…

AVA BREAKS THE PIN AGAIN!
Ava exits the ring and she pounds on the ropes, Duke pulls from his reserves and dives to make the tag. Ava steps through the ropes and meets Stephen in the center of the ring with a hard right.

The referee hands them the belt and Ryan and Stephen fall to their knees in celebration.
Mighty Frank vs. Denni Summers
Bolt Thomas:
Well, this is a bit of an interesting one…
Aaron Gurst:
Both of these wrestlers think that they have something to prove, and that makes this a lot of fun!
Ring Announcer Nathan Jacobs:
The following match is scheduled for ONE FALL!
"Open Your Eyes" fills the arena, the lighting darkening as a flashing strobe effect picks up. Denni Summers steps out into the entryway, a smirk on her face. She takes a cocky little bow, smiling at the positive crowd reaction before heading down toward the ring. On the way down, she slaps hands with a few fans as she passes, clapping a bit to get them cheering louder. She climbs into the ring upon reaching it, heading to the center, and gives her hips a shake to rile up the crowd even more. Grinning at the cheering from the crowd, she gives her ass a slap, then heads to her corner, leaning against it as she waits for the match to begin.
Ring Announcer Nathan Jacobs:
Introducing first, she is…DENNI SUMMERS!!!
Bolt Thomas:
You’d think that this is a match that Denni will do well in! She’s in the ring against a man that doesn’t necessarily rely on submissions…
Aaron Gurst:
No, but he IS someone that hits hard! And that’s not an easy thing for Denni to counter! Or anyone, really.
Ring Announcer Nathan Jacobs:
And her opponent…
The flute introduces "Remember To Breathe" by Sturgill Simpson plays through-out the arena while the lights dim real low. Mighty Frank appears inside the light of a single spotlight, carrying his trusty golden hammer, an unlit cigar poking out from between his teeth. He is wearing a black t-shirt that reads, KEEP HAMMERIN'. He stops on the rampway as the drums kick in. Frank kneels and sets his hammer down on the rampway.
He lifts his arms over his head and suddenly a single streamer blast appears on the left side of the rampway. Frank looks at the pyro for a seconds before he steps closer and leans in, lighting the cigar between his teeth off of the pyrotechnics. After the first chorus, lightning flashes on the tron behind Mighty Frank. The lightning looks to strike the hammer and then the hammer glows. Frank takes a puff from his cigar, picking up his glowing hammer before heading to the ring. On his way to the ring, he puts out his cigar when he hands the officials his hammer.
Ring Announcer Nathan Jacobs:
…he is, MIGHTY FRANK!!!
Bolt Thomas:
I think a lot of people forget just how ‘mighty’ this man can be!
Aaron Gurst:
Yeah, well…that’s their loss. And if Denni is writing him off, it’s gonna be her loss, too!
The two wrestlers stare each other down as the referee calls for the bell and the match is officially underway. Almost immediately, Denni runs across the ring and takes the fight to Mighty Frank - hitting him in the mouth with a forearm smash, and then a second, and then a third. The fans cheer her on as Denni bounces off of the ropes, perhaps lining Mighty Frank up for a Taste of Perfection! Unfortunately for her, Mighty Frank has other ideas - running forward and cutting Denni off with a HUGE clothesline! Denni crashes hard to the mat as Mighty Frank drags her back up to her feet. He hits her with a clubbing elbow smash that sends Denni stumbling back to the ropes. She grabs hold of them to keep herself upright as Mighty Frank charges at her and sends Denni out to the floor with a second clothesline! Denni hits the floor with a thud as Mighty Frank holds his arms up in the air!
Bolt Thomas:
This one has started off as a bit of a brawl, which isn’t quite what I’d have expected from these two…
Aaron Gurst:
Sounds like a bit of a personal problem, Dolty. This is EXACTLY what I expected from these two!
Denni slowly stumbles back up to her feet as Mighty Frank heads out to the floor. He quickly closes the gap between himself and Denni, kicking her in the ribs and then hoisting her up into the air. He holds her there - effortlessly - for a moment, before slamming her down to the floor with a vertical suplex! The fans gasp at the impact as Denni arches her back in pain. Mighty Frank pulls himself back up to his feet and stares Denni down. He mouths that he’s gonna keep her down before grabbing her by the air. The referee is counting away in the ring, as Mighty Frank lines Denni up with the steel stairs. He pauses for a moment before charging at the stairs with Denni in hand! Just before Mighty Frank can throw Denni into the steps, she reverses his momentum and sends Frank flying into the stairs instead! Frank hits them with a THUD as the fans cheer for the continued show of violence! Frank briefly slumps against the stairs as Denni comes flying in and hits Frank with a Taste of Perfection that bounces his head off of the steps!
Bolt Thomas:
Did you hear that impact? Ouch!
Aaron Gurst:
I don’t know how Mighty Frank is going to get back up after that one!
Bolt Thomas:
Looks like Denni took quite a bit out of herself with that, too!
Denni tries to rub the pain out of her hip on the floor, clearly feeling the effects of her attack! Nonetheless, she appears to be in better shape than Mighty Frank, who remains slumped against the stairs! The referee continues to count the two wrestlers out of the match. The fans try to cheer the two of them on as Denni finally starts to stir. She goes to try and make her back into the ring - perhaps to break up the count - when suddenly, Mighty Frank grabs hold of her from behind. He gathers his strength and LAUNCHES Denni into the ring post! Denni’s head bounces off of it as she falls to the floor. Mighty Frank briefly contemplates stepping back into the ring before changing his mind and instead dragging Denni up to her feet. He tosses her into the crowd and follows in close pursuit as the referee calls for the bell and the match is officially tossed out by the referee.
Bolt Thomas:
The referee just called for a double countout in this one, but…
Aaron Gurst:
I’m not sure that either of these wrestlers actually cares! Looks like their fun is just beginning!
Denni stumbles back up to her feet in the crowd. Once she’s standing, Mighty Frank runs at her and delivers a hard right hand that knocks Denni right back down. Fans start to swarm around the two of them as security hurries over and tries to break it up. Denni reaches out and grabs a fan’s drink in the middle of the chaos. Mighty Frank goes to grab hold of Denni and she throws the drink in his face! The fans cheer their involvement in the brawl as Mighty Frank stumbles for just a moment - allowing Denni to hit him with another Taste of Perfection in the crowd! Frank falls to the concrete floor as Denni takes a moment to regain her energy and recover a bit.
Aaron Gurst:
That was incredibly rude of Denni! Do you have any idea how much drinks cost nowadays? A lot!
Bolt Thomas:
Either way, that was the kind of opening that Denni needed to stay alive in this brawl!
Denni stumbles further into the crowd toward the show’s AV equipment. Mighty Frank drags himself to his feet and chases after her. Mighty Frank heads toward the equipment and charges at Denni at full speed! Just before he can do anything to her, Denni winds back and throws a steel chair at Frank’s head! The chair bounces off of his head and falls to the floor. A cut opens up on Frank’s head as blood trickles down his face. Frank staggers back groggily, but the feeling of his own blood seemingly gives him a bit of an adrenaline rush. Denni’s eyes go wide in a panic as Mighty Frank charges at her once again. This time, he nearly takes her head off with a massive lariat that causes every fan in the area to gasp.
Bolt Thomas:
Denni might’ve drawn first blood, but…
Aaron Gurst:
After a clothesline like that, she definitely hasn’t won the exchange!
Denni tries to stumble back up to her feet, but Mighty Frank is ready for her. He effortlessly powers her into the air and delivers a vicious powerbomb onto an equipment case! Denni lies motionless on the case as Mighty Frank wipes the blood away from his face. He lifts an arm into the air as the fans give him a rather mixed reaction. He smirks as he glances down at Denni, fully expecting her to still be out of it. Much to his surprise, she pulls herself off of the equipment case and stumbles toward him, hitting Mighty Frank with a weak forearm shot! She follows it up with a second. Mighty Frank responds by blasting Denni with an elbow smash. He then shakes his head and walks her over to the equipment case once again. This time, he tries to set Denni up for a SENKO DOMINATION on the case - though Denni manages to squirm out of his grasp! She grabs a monitor off of the case and BLASTS Mighty Frank with it, causing him to stumble back in pain!
Bolt Thomas:
I don’t know how she’s still fighting after what she’s been through!
Aaron Gurst:
She’s a lot tougher than she gets credit for being!
Mighty Frank before slumps against the equipment case as Denni bounces his head off of it! She then takes a few steps back and charges at Mighty Frank - hitting him with a knee strike that bounces his head off of the case! Frank falls to the concrete as the case begins to roll away from the two of them. Denni turns and gives her hips a shake, playing to the crowd and letting them know that she’s still got plenty of fight left in her!
Bolt Thomas:
I know this wasn’t an official match at this point, but she seems like she’s the winner at the moment!
Aaron Gurst:
I don’t know about that…
Sure enough, Denni turns to further her gloating. Suddenly, Mighty Frank wallops her with a right hand! Denni stumbles as Mighty Frank grabs her hair and drags her back over toward the equipment case! He grabs hold of some of the wires that are coming out of it and wraps one around Denni’s neck. He begins to pull back on it in an effort to choke her out, blood trickling down his face and landing in Denni’s hair. Before he can fully start to choke her out, she panics and yells out for Frank to let her go.
Bolt Thomas:
These two really don’t like each other…
Frank drops the wire and causes Denni to fall to the floor. He turns around and wipes the blood off of his face. He raises an arm in the air to celebrate his perceived victory - when suddenly, Denni yells out! Frank turns around and Denni charges at him - throwing both of them down off of the platform they’re on and through a stack of tables that were on the floor with various monitors and other equipment! Sparks fly from the monitors as both wrestlers are out cold in the wreckage.
Crowd:
HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT!
Medical personnel immediately run out from the back to check on both Frank and Denni.
Bolt Thomas:
Mighty Frank got Denni to seemingly quit when he tried to choke her, but…
Aaron Gurst:
She used whatever fight she had left to take them both out!
Bolt Thomas:
I just hope the two of them are okay, but I get the feeling that things are just getting started with these two!

The house lights cut out as the opening of “Press F” by Attack Attack! begins to play around the arena as the strobes begin to flash in hues of purple to the beat of the bass and drums. At the 18second mark of the song as the lyrics kick in we watch as Nightmare make his way onto the stage. His head cloaked by the zipped black hoodie he wears; we watch as he takes a few steps forward before looking out at the crowd. Turning his back he pauses for a moment before beginning to walk backwards towards the structure while looking up at the arena tron. After a few steps he turns around and sprints the rest of the way to the Chamber and quickly scales the steps and goes through the door. Once inside the ring, we watch as Nightmare goes to the far right turnbuckle and stands atop the 2nd rope and unzips his hoodie to display his title before unbuckling it and letting it fall to the ground. As he looks out at the crowd Nightmare throws his arms up in an X under his chin before extending his arms out to flip off the crowd before looking down at the belt before entering the second pod and sitting cross-legged inside it.

“Lords of War” by Otep hits and Shamaya leads her man, the monster Disturbed out onto the stage. The two kiss and then Shamaya takes her leave as Disturbed stalks to the ring. He enters the structure and glares around. He looks hatefully at Miss Daisy Jones and Nightmare and then walks over to the third pod, entering and allowing the door to close behind him.

“Wayward One” starts playing as the lights turn Blue and Silver. 12 seconds into the song, Francisco Lopez appears on the stage, surrounded by smoke. He slowly makes his way to the ring, staring at his battleground as he walks around the ring. He enters the structure and nods as he goes to the last available pod. He steps inside, the door closing behind him.

The sound of an engine starting can be heard as "Saturday Night" by the Kaiser Chiefs hits the sound system. "The Apex" Kelly James appears at the top of the ramp, waving a checkered flag as she stands and smiles at the crowd. She makes her way down to the ring, slapping hands with the fans as she passes, then climbs into the structure and steps up into the corner, waving the flag high above her head and waving to the crowd. She then hops down, setting the flag down in the corner and beginning to stretch as she awaits the start of the match.

Aaron Gurst:

Blue lights strobe around the arena as the opening riffs of "Elevation" hit the arena sound system. The fans rise to their feet in anticipation. Suddenly, the opening drums of "Nothing Left" pound the sound system as Joe Summers comes running out from the back. He stands at the top of the ramp, looking focused as ever. The fans cheer loudly and show their support as Joe runs back and forth across the top of the ramp, calling for them to get even louder. He then smirks and makes his way down to the ring, slapping hands with the fans in the front row on his way. Joe slides into the ring and pops back up to his feet, soaking in the crowd reaction. He takes a deep breath and leans against the rope as he waits for the match to begin.
