It's what strives us to go forward, the will to achieve glory

He punches air in a warm up

The will to continue over all obstacles, the will to win it all

But the doubt can cause the downfall

And now, Meltdown and Ascension present

*Pryos go off*​

The camera pans around at the crowd and their signs until it stops at the announce table.

Copeland: St. Paul, Minnesota is the home for the WZCW and All or Nothing as we find out the fate of Gordito's quest for the World Heavyweight Championship. Hello again everyone, I'm Seabastian Copeland alongside Jack Cohen and Cat Connor, we're at ringside for All or Nothing. We got every title on the line tonight, some being contested in certain stipulations like the Elite X Iron Man Match or the All or Nothing Challenge for the EurAsian Belt. We also got a personal altercation between Everest and Big Dave. But first we're going to start with finding a home for the vacant Tag Team Championships, but let's show you how it came to be.

A pick-up truck arrives from the side of the entrance way with Dakota in the back arms up in the air. The driver is going a bit too fast and stops abruptly to avoid the barricades, causing Dakota to flip off and smack the ground. Bud slowly gets up and clutches his back. The referee goes over to check on Dakota who insists that he start the match. The ref shrugs, signals for the bell and slides back into the ring.

We cut the end of Brothers in Arms vs. Brad Bomb & Bud Dakota

Bomb quickly gets up and positions himself as Toyota gets up, delivering a dropkick taking the big man down near Bomb's corner. Dakota has made it to the apron and begs for the tag from Bomb. He shrugs and tags in Dakota, who is still feeling the effects and gets in the ring. He walks over to Toyota as Bomb slowly exits the ring. Toyota performs a small package pin catching Dakota by surprise... 1... 2... 3!

Wasabi gets up slowly and is shocked, along with everyone else that he was able to perform that move. Their theme music hits as the referee signals for the bell and Hammond comes in to celebrate. Dakota is stumped as to what happened, with Bomb in disbelief.

Harrys: And the winners of the match, Scott Hammond & Wasabi Toyota... Brothers In Arms!

Dakota is ashamed as he makes his way up the ramp. He gets to his pick-up truck still parked on the side of the stage. The door opens and Steven Holmes exits the truck, smirking at Dakota. Bud realises who it is and begins yelling at Holmes. The crowd begins booing as Steven Kurtesy appears behind him without Dakota noticing. The doctor locks in the Hypnosis submission and Dakota struggles, with Holmes delivering some high knees to the midsection of Bud. Dakota manages to shove Holmes away and roll Kurtesy over, but Holmes hits a knee to the side of the head of Dakota, dazing him. Kurtesy gets up and hits some stiff kicks to random areas of Dakota, followed with a Rolling Savate Kick. Holmes locks in Aristocracy Reigns and keeps it held tight until Dakota passes out. Kurtesy looks at the pick-up and tells Holmes to help him. They pick him up and roll him on the bonnet of the car, with Kurtesy applying a headlock and drags him forward leaving only his feet suspended from the car. Kurtesy looks around into the crowd and drops Dakota into a DDT. They stand and pose before Wasabi Toyota, Brad Bomb and Scott Hammond come out running to chase off The Movement. Hammond and Toyota get a few shots in before Kurtesy and Holmes scamper away. B.I.A. go after them as Bomb checks out Dakota who is not moving. He begins calling for help

Connor: The Crashin Movement decided not to leave it at one night though!

We're viewing Reckless Youth vs. High Society

Cooper comes up from behind and puts Steele in a reverse DDT position. He blows on his hand once like a mic, and hits Testing, Testing, check. He goes for the cover. 1... 2... 3.

Anderson: Here are your winners. The Say Hays Kid and Justin Cooper!

Tucker is trying to appoligise to Steele. Steele is fusterated with the loss. Both men start arguing in the ring as Steven Kurtesy comes through the crowd and slides in with a steel chair. Steele sees Kurtesy and pushes Tucker out of the way, taking the full force of the chair shot. Tucker gets up and starts punching Kurtesy, causing him to drop the chair. Steven Holmes enters the picture and hits Tucker from behind. Both men knock Tucker to the mat and start stomping him. Doug Crashin starts limping down the ramp with his steel crutch. Steven Holmes hits a knee to the head as Tucker gets up, causing him to fall outside the ring. Crashin takes his crutch and smashes it against Tucker. Holmes picks up the steel chair and places it over Steeles face. Holmes backs up and then takes a 2 step approach and jumps, dropping a knee on the chair over Steele's face. Crashin picks up Tucker and chocks him with his crutch, making him watch what they do. Steele is now bleeding from the forehead. Kurtesy picks him up and grabs him by the head. Prescripted Sedation! The crowd makes a pained sound, as Steele lies limp, but the Crashin Movement are not done. Holmes picks up the limp Steele and locks in the Elite Sleeper. He swings Steele meekly around as his arms are limp. He finally drops Steele and the 2 men stand over him. Crashin lets Tucker go, who crawls into the ring to check on his partner. Kurtesy and Holmes exit the ring and all 3 men walk up the ramp, satisified with what they've done as EMT's rush down to check on Steele.

-------------------------

We're backstage in the parking lot as the EMTs are taking Alexander Steele out on a stretcher to an ambulance. Tucker Graham watches on in disbelief as his partner is carried away.

-------------------------

We're backstage in Vance Bateman's office with Tucker Graham and Brad Bomb.

Bateman: So let me get this straight. You want to vacate the Tag Team Championship so you two get some revenge against the Crashin Movement for what happen to your respective partners over the past two shows?

Both of them nod

Are you sure? I mean I can let Brad Bomb replace Steele?

Graham: With all due respect sir, I don't think it's right to replace Alex unless an official change took place.

Bateman: That's fair enough, but you left me with a problem. Since Brothers in Arms and Hays/Cooper earnt victories, they could easily compete for the belts, but you also have a right to defend them. How about a little comprimise?

Graham: Yeah?

Bateman: I'll grant you the chance to vacate the belts to go after the Crashin Movement. But you two have a chance to win the Tag Team Championship as a new team at the same time. So we'll have you two, Brothers in Arms, Hays & Cooper and the Crashin Movement compete in a Tag Team Gauntlet to determine new Tag Team Champions. What do you say?

Graham: Sounds perfect!

Copeland: And that's what has lead us to this Gauntlet match which is taking place right now!

Harrys: The following match is a gauntlet match, and it is for the WZCW World Tag Team Championship! Two teams will start, and fight with one fall to a finish. As soon as one team is eliminated, another team will take their place. The last team standing will be the new WZCW World Tag Team Champions!

“Lithium” hits and Барбоса intensely marches toward the ring.

Harrys: Introducing first, from Bedlam and weighing in at 237 pounds, Барбоса!

Барбоса paces around the ring in anticipation. “Youth of the Nation” hits, and Justin Cooper quickly appears at the top of the ramp. He is then followed by Hays who appears moments later. They look at each other, and then run down to the ring.

Harrys: Next, weighing in at 467 pounds, Justin Cooper and Hays, The High Society!

The High Society slide in, and both then climb on a turnbuckle. The two stare out into the crowd, and then point and chuckle at Барбоса in the opposite corner by himself.

Cohen: So wait, the Bapodoncanda guy doesn’t have a partner?

Copeland: No, Jack. WZCW management received a petition from Барбоса requesting to be his own partner due to his bipolar disorder and the request was granted.

Cohen: This place gets more and more ridiculous by the day…

Барбоса will start against Cooper. They go to tie up, and after a moment they break with neither man getting the advantage. They tie up again, this time with Барбоса gaining control with a front facelock. He then begins driving knees into the skull of Cooper. After 6 successful strikes, Барбоса lets Cooper fall lifelessly to the mat. He goes in for a pin, 1…2.. and Cooper kicks out. Барбоса picks Cooper back up and connects with a right hand. As Cooper stumbles back, Барбоса grabs another front facelock, and tries for the Duplicity. Cooper drags the arm, however, and drills Барбоса with a European uppercut. Cooper picks up Барбоса, scoops him and slams him in front of Hays. Hays is tagged in and drops his leg across the upper chest of Барбоса and goes in for a pin, 1…2. and Барбоса kicks out. Барбоса rolls into a corner, and begins having a fit. Hays and Cooper just stare at him until Барбоса stands up again, a fire burning in his eyes. He charges at Hays and scores with a swinging neckbreaker. Cooper is taken out with a clothesline while Hays slowly returns to his feet. Hays stumbles toward Барбоса and is thrown with an overhead Sambo suplex. Барбоса picks up Hays and drops him with a DDT, holds on, picks himself and Hays back to their feet, and drops him again for the Duplicity. Барбоса screams wildly and signals that it is over. He slides to the outside, grabs Cooper, and connects with the Split Personality. He slides back in, but his hit with a right hand by Hays. Hays goes for She Likes Me, but Барбоса slips out and hits the Doppelgänger. He rolls into a pin, 1…2…3!

Harrys: The High Society has been eliminated!

“We Are Once” starts blaring over the PA system and Scott Hammond sprints toward the ring with Wasabi Toyota moving as quickly as he can down the ramp as well.

Harrys: The next team, at a combined weight of 825 pounds, the Brothers in Arms!

Hammond slides into the ring and he and Барбоса start firing right hands at each other with neither man backing down. Toyota reaches the apron right as Hammond ducks a wild swing from Барбосa, goes behind and drops him with a German suplex. Барбоса bounces up, however, and charges at Hammond, which results in Барбоса being nearly broken in half by a tilt-a-whirl backbreaker. Барбоса is picked up and whipped into the Brothers’ corner. Hammond tags in Toyota and then stands in front of Барбоса, holding him in place in the corner. Toyota charges in and smashes Барбоса with a turnbuckle splash and as he collapses to the mat, Hammond connects with a kick to Барбоса’s head. Toyota goes for a pin, 1…2…and Барбоса kicks out at the last possible moment. Toyota waits for Барбоса to get back to his feet, and picks him up with a fireman’s carry. Барбоса fights out of it and runs the far ropes and hits a forearm to Toyota’s jaw. Барбоса runs again, but this time is caught with a Samoan drop.. Toyota signals over toward Hammond and tags him in. Hammond picks up Барбоса and the Brothers connect with the Walking Wounded. Hammond crawls over into the pin, 1…2…3!

Harrys: Барбоса has been eliminated!

"Vices" by Brand New plays, and Tucker Graham and Brad Bomb appear on the stage. Bomb goes to charge down the ramp but Graham stops him. They talk strategy all the way up the ramp, with Hammond pacing around the ring wanting to start the next round of the gauntlet.

Harrys: Next, at a combined weight of 446 pounds, Tucker Graham and Brad Bomb!

Connor: Excellent showing here by Барбоса. He eliminated one team on his own and it took a former tag champion to remove him from this gauntlet. The rookie really showed what he is capable of tonight.

Copeland: Agreed Cat, he has shown that he is a force to be reckoned with. Interesting strategy here by Tucker Graham with his new partner, making their opponents wait.

Cohen: It doesn’t matter how good of a strategy they have, Seabass, if they don’t know how to work together.

Hammond waits in the ring, and he will be opposed by Tucker Graham. They lock up, and Graham gains control with a side headlock. Hammond pushes him back, and shoots Graham off the ropes. Graham rebounds, jumps, and catches Hammond with a headscissors takedown. Hammond is quickly back to his feet, albeit a bit dazed, and locks up with Graham once again. Graham again gets the side headlock and is shot off by Hammond. This time, however, Hammond catches Graham and throws him with a t-bone suplex. Hammond goes over into a cover, 1… and Graham kicks out. Hammond locks in a rear chinlock, trying to wear down his fresher opponent. Graham fights back to his feet, and tries to run the ropes, but Hammond grabs a reverse facelock and drops Graham with a reverse DDT. Hammond quickly climbs to the top turnbuckle in the nearest corner, and scores with a diving headbutt right to the chest of Tucker Graham. Hammond goes for a pin, 1…2.. and Graham is able to kick out. Hammond is able to use Graham’s own momentum from kicking out, however, and locks in an Anaconda Vice. Graham screams out in pain as Hammond wrenches back on the hold and Bomb yells encouragement from the apron. Graham finally is able to roll toward Hammond and use his free hand to connect with a couple shots on him. Graham fights his way back to his feet, and drops Hammond with a Pele kick. Both men are down and in need of a tag.

Connor: Graham has taken a beating, he needs to bring Brad Bomb into this match.

Cohen: Especially since it looks like Hammond is going to bring the Pillsbury Dough Boy into the match. Might as well get out of the match before he gets smashed.

Hammond and Graham are both crawling toward their corners, with Hammond tagging in Toyota just before Graham tags in Bomb. Toyota makes his way into the ring as Bomb charges in. Bomb nails Toyota with a clothesline, but Toyota barely budges. Bomb runs off the ropes, and again hits a clothesline. Toyota stumbles a bit more this time, but is still on his feet. Bomb lets out a yell and runs the ropes one more time, and this time takes Toyota down with a crossbody. Bomb stays on top for a pin, 1…2.. and Toyota kicks out. Bomb goes and tags in Tucker Graham, who comes in with a springboard senton back splash. He covers Toyota, 1…2… another kick out by Toyota. He goes and tags in Bomb once more. Bomb comes in, trying for a leg drop, but Toyota blocks it. Toyota gets up to his knees as Bomb comes at him again. Toyota drops Bomb with a throat thrust and is able to return to a standing position. Bomb stumbles back toward Toyota and is met with a savate kick, then is caught with a belly-to-back suplex. Toyota tags in Hammond and sets for the Walking Wounded. Hammond runs and knocks Graham off the apron before retrieving Bomb and suplexing him for the Walking Wounded. Hammond goes into the pin, 1…2…3!

Harrys: Tucker Graham and Brad Bomb have been eliminated!

“Black Betty” hits as the Brothers in Arms await the final team in the gauntlet. Suddenly, the Crashin Movement charge in from the crowd and attack Wasabi Toyota as he stands on the apron. Steven Holmes keeps Hammond at bay as Kurtesy and Crashin pound away at the left leg of Toyota.

Copeland: Why isn’t the referee disqualifying them? Ring the bell and end this!

Cohen: The Crashins haven’t entered the ring yet, Seabass. They haven’t officially entered the match until at least one of the team members enters the ring. This is brilliant by them to take out that behemoth.

Holmes rams Hammond face first into one of the ring posts and then rolls him into the ring. Crashin stops his attack on Toyota just before Holmes enters the ring, officially putting Crashin Movement as active members in the match. Kurtesy gets one more hard stomp onto Toyota’s knee before rolling into the ring himself. They signal for the end as Holmes whips the now bloodied Scott Hammond into the ropes and the Crashin Movement connect with Here's Your Health-care Bill. Holmes covers Hammond, 1…2…3!

Harrys: Your winners, and NEW WZCW World Tag Team Champions, The Crashin Movement!

Doug Crashin slides into the ring as the three men celebrate with their new titles. Referees and trainers come out to check on both Toyota and Hammond. The Crashin Movement pose with their new titles a bit longer before heading to the back.

---------------------------
We cut backstage to Phoenix who's applying his facepaint in front of a mirror as Blade storms in but Phoenix is unphased as he moves slowly from the mirror to look Blade in the eyes.

Blade: I don't know how you got yourself so favourable with management. You lost the Gold Rush Finals and now you're being thrown into my match to get an opportunity at a title you don't even deserve?

Phoenix: I have more of a right to that title than you do, I actually was in the tournament while you were tending to your...paper cut, that I personally gave you at Unscripted last month. Now if you excuse me, I need to finish getting ready as I prepare to walk of tonight as the new EurAsian Champion. Unlike you, I plan on walking on with my first attempt on the belt.

Phoenix goes back to applying his facepaint as Blade stands on watching.

Blade: Keep applying, because you'll need to hide the frustration of seeing me hold the belt around my waist. I'll see you out there.

Blade walks off as Phoenix looks on intently.

 

[Phoenix]

Harrys: The following contest is a Triple Threat match, scheduled for one fall, where the winner will be the first participant to qualify for the third annual WZCW Lethal Lottery!

As the speakers begin playing “Clubbed to Death” by Rob Dougan, the crowd becomes excited to see Ferbian emerge through the curtain who smiles and gives a simple wave to the crowd.

Harrys: Making his way to the ring, first, from Copenhagen, Denmark, weighing in at 264 pounds... Ferbian!

He continues down to the ring acknowledging the fans and uses the ring-steps to get into the ring, with the referee pulling down the ropes. He thanks the ref and goes over to a corner as his music is replaced by “Mr Baller” by Royce the 5”9, and the crowd switches to a more distasteful welcoming with Baller jumping out, pumping himself for the match.

Harrys: And his opponent, from Miami, Florida, weighing in at 220 pounds... Mr. Baller!

He walks down to the ring spinning a basketball on his finger, occasionally pushing the ball into the air with one finger and catching it with another, still spinning. He belittles the crowd with the skills and puts the basketball down when he gets to ringside. He ascends the top rope and shows himself off as the speakers begin blaring “Suicide Messiah” by Black Label Society. Everyone cheers, except for Mr Baller (who does not look amused) as Jordan bursts through the curtain and pumps his fist into the air.

Harrys: Finally, their opponent, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, weighing in at 255 pounds... “The Justice” Jordan Lights!

Jordan runs down the ramp and slides underneath the bottom rope. He has a brief stare-down with Baller as he heads to the corners and pumps his fists down into the air.

Connor: It seems this match is going to be about more than just a position in the company’s biggest match of the year. Lights and Baller have a lot of history, with the score between the two being one a piece.

Cohen: After tonight, Mr. Baller is going to go home with both a guaranteed spot in the Lethal Lottery and a moral victory over the junkie!

Copeland: Don’t forget about Ferbian. Although he may not have a winning streak in place, the man has definitely put on a good showing ever since he debuted with the company not too long ago. You should research everyone in the match before investing into one person’s stock, Cohen.

As soon as Lights gets down from the last corner, Baller walks up to Lights and pushes him, prompting the music to cut and the referee to ring the bell.

Jordan gets into Baller’s face and the two exchange some words with each other. The referee tries to restore some order but the two are inseparable. Ferbian watches this unfold with a look of confusion on his face, before deciding to perform a school-boy roll-up on Lights... 1... 2... Baller saves the match, who he (as well as Lights) are both shocked at the near end of the match. Baller tries to mount some offense but Ferbian levels him with a knife-edge chop. Lights is up and receives one too for his efforts. Baller is up and swings wildly with a clothesline, but Ferbian ducks and hits a big boot on him to take him down. Lights is on his feet and Ferbian greets him with an chop, followed by a few more, that takes him to the ropes. Ferbian tries to Irish whip him off, but Lights holds onto the ropes. He tries again, but to no avail. Ferbian is pulling until Baller delivers a clothesline that sends Lights to the floor. He looks down and smiles at his work, to turn back into Ferbian who hits him with a dropkick. Baller lands hard and Ferbian goes for a cover... 1... easy kick-out by Baller. Ferbian puts on a half-nelson facelock, trying to keep Baller down. However, Baller immediately gets out of it and twists the arm of Ferbian. He wrenches the arm down a couple of times, twisting again to keep the pressure on. Ferbian pushes Baller back to the ropes and tries to Irish whip him off, but Baller reverses it into an arm drag accompanied with an armbar. Baller demands the referee check on Ferbian, who keeps on going. He gets a bit frustrated as the crowd helps Ferbian mount a small comeback. He is able to hit a European uppercut with the other arm on Baller, who let’s go, and hits some more painful chops to Baller’s chest with the same arm. He Irish whips him and as Baller is about to rebound off the ropes, Lights pulls down the top rope, causing Baller to topple over the top rope and crashing to the floor. Lights is momentarily distracted as he smiles at the payback, only for Ferbian to grab Lights and hit a rope-assisted backbreaker. Ferbian drags Lights into the middle of the ring and goes for a cover... 1... 2... kickout by Lights. Ferbian gets up and hits a fist-drop to the face of Lights, with another cover... 1... 2... kickout again by Lights.

Copeland: This match has been all Ferbian from the get go! Doing pretty well for a third wheel, wouldn't you think Cohen?

Cohen: Shut up, Seabass... Mr. Baller is just picking his spots and letting the other two do the work for him.

Connor: Erm... go Jordan Lights?

Ferbian shakes the cobwebs from his arm grabs the neck of Lights and puts a chinlock on. Lights continually says no to the referee's questions and tries getting up, but Ferbian is holding the pressure quite tightly. Suddenly, Mr. Baller breaks up the submission with a shoot kick to the back of Ferbian. Lights rolls out of the way and tries getting up as Baller mounts some offense on Ferbian, who attempts getting up as well. Baller assists him and Ferbian pushes Baller off him. Ferbian tries for another chop, but Baller avoids and counters with a dropsault to the targeted arm of Ferbian that sends him to the ropes. Lights is up and Baller turns around to see him charging at him. Baller detects this, grabs the head of Lights making him continue running and throws him at Ferbian, which causes Lights to crossbody himself over the top, as well as Ferbian who flips over. Both men crash to the floor and Baller ascends the turnbuckle. He waits until both are up and hits a crossbody from the top, taking them down. All three men are on the floor for a moment before Baller gets up to see Ferbian moving. He grabs his arm and smacks it across the ring apron, followed by the ring post and the steel steps. Ferbian writhes in pain as Baller hooks his arm and hits a DDT, delivering all the punishment to the arm. Ferbian looks out as Baller makes his way over to where Lights is recovering. He throws him into the ring and goes for a pin attempt... 1... 2... kickout. Baller tries again, this time hooking the leg... 1... 2... kickout. He puts all the pressure on Lights with both legs hooked... 1... 2... kickout. He looks at the referee and abuses him for slow counting. Baller shakes his head and notices the prone body of Lights moving. He gets up and kicks him in the gut a couple of times, followed by a leg drop. Baller thinks about going for a cover, but he decides not to and delivers a high impact standing leg drop. Baller is about to hook the leg but the turnbuckles catches his eyes. He smiles, gets off Lights and ascends to the second turnbuckle. He relishes in the moment and the crowd boos him. He steadies himself on the top turnbuckle and jumps off to deliver a big leg drop, with both Baller and Lights reeling from the effects of the move. Slowly, but surely, Baller goes to the cover... 1... 2... shoulder up by Lights. Baller is quite displeased with the referee now and tries to argue the point, but the ref doesn't budge.

Connor: Mr. Baller needs to keep pressing on in the match if he wants a chance to win this, especially with Ferbian still in no condition to compete.

Cohen: He is just expressing his views on how he is perceiving the match to the referee, for a comparative analysis.

Lights is using the ropes to get to his feet as Baller walks towards him. Baller helps him up to his feet and whips him, only to be reversed by Lights who sends Baller running. However, Baller quickly springboards off the ropes to hit a back elbow to Lights, knocking him down. Baller gets up and hits a standing moonsault, going for a cover... 1... 2... kickout again by Lights. Baller only glances at the referee for a moment in anger, before getting up and screaming at Lights to get up. He makes it to his feet eventually, prompting Baller to run at him with an attempted swinging neckbreaker, but Lights shifts the momentum to swing Baller around and counter into a swinging neckbreaker of his own. Both men are down in the centre of the ring, with Ferbian on the outside showing movement by trying to slowly get up. As Baller gets to his feet, Lights is on one knee and Ferbian is using the aid of the rope to slide in. Baller lands a punch on Lights, prompting the crowd to boo. Lights hits a forearm smash to Baller in return, eliciting a cheer. The two begin exchanging back and forth before Lights gets the better of the two and forces Baller to the ropes. He whips him across and catches him with a sidewalk slam. He goes for a cover... 1... 2... kickout by Baller. Lights signals for the end as he tries getting Baller into the Justification, but he struggles too much. Ferbian is up and chop blocks Lights in the back of the knee to prevent him. Baller moves out of the way as Ferbian goes on the attack with a couple of strikes before whipping Lights into the corner. Lights quickly reverses and sends Ferbian into the corner. Lights runs at Ferbian, but Ferbian lifts Lights who goes over the top but lands on the top apron. Baller is up and runs at Ferbian, but he rolls out of the way and is impressed he did so. Baller manages to keep the momentum going and runs up the three turnbuckles to deliver the whisper in the wind. Baller moves over to the cover... 1... 2... Lights breaks up the count.

Copeland: Jordan just saved the match... but now at this point it is really anyone's game.

Lights manages to throw Baller over the top rope to send him crashing to the floor again and takes his focus on Ferbian. He picks him up, hits a couple of stiff knee shots and picks him up for a suplex... holding Ferbian in the air for a few seconds before crashing him down to the mat. Lights rolls through into the cover... 1... 2... kickout. Lights, slightly frustrated, aids Ferbian up and hits a mean facebuster. Again, he goes into the cover... 1... 2... shoulder up by Ferbian. Lights scratches his head and gets up, waiting for Ferbian to get up. He gets behind him and locks in a sleeper hold. Ferbian does all he can and manages to switch behind Lights, turn him around 180 degrees and perform a flowing snap DDT to take him down. Ferbian tells the crowd it's done and they cheer as he waits for Lights to get up. Ferbian follows through with the Deal-breaker to Lights, knocking him out. Baller is up on the apron and begins to springboard onto the top rope, which Ferbian notices. Baller lunges at Ferbian who tries to defend himself, but is caught with a hurricanrana that sends him through the middle rope and to the outside. Baller sees Lights out and quickly hits The Buzzerbeater, hooking the leg... 1... 2... 3!

The referee signals for the bell, Baller's music hits, the crowd begins jeering and Baller slowly gets up to celebrate in the ring. He smirks in the ring as he looks down at his rival who he just pinned and is currently out of it. Ferbian is aware as to what happened and is on one knee staring into the ring as Baller's arm is raised high.

Harrys: Here is your winner and the first participant to qualify for the third annual WZCW Lethal Lottery, Mr. Baller!

Cohen: I told you so! Mr. Baller had the wherewithal to keep his head in the match and pull off the victory!

Copeland: He deserves the credit as he definitely earned that victory. All three of these men performed well tonight.

Connor: It's funny to imagine that one year ago Mr. Baller was considered the laughing stock of the company. Now, he has established himself as a threat heading into the Lethal Lottery.

Baller goes to the turnbuckle and taunts at the fans whilst Ferbian makes his way to the back shaking his arm and clapping the hands of fans that are showing their appreciation for him. The referee checks on Lights who is only now moving around and gaining consciousness.

--------------------
We see Chris Jones walking backstage. The challenger is looking calm and collected, doing his final stretches before his Mayhem title match with Wilhelm Wunderbar.

Connor: "The former Mayhem Champion, Chris Jones, look primed and ready to go."

Copeland: "Wunderbar is going to prove one hell of a challenge and of course, it's going to be anything goes, under Mayhem Rules."

We then go to the dressing room of Wunderbar, the new champion. It is locked shut and the camera focusses on the name plate.

Cohen: "But Das Kaizer is willing to do anything to retain that championship. I got a feeling that is going to be a brutal battle between these two."

 

[Phoenix]

Harrys: “The following contest is scheduled for one fall and is for the WZCW Mayhem Championship!!”

The arena lights dim as Amaranth by Nightwish begins. Smoke starts to rise from the entrance, and when it clears, Jones is shown standing there, as though he appeared from nowhere. He then walks to the ring, ignoring the crowd, and enters the ring. He stands on the turnbuckle closest to the entranceway and stretches his arms to his sides and the crowd greets him with a mainly positive reaction.

“On his way to the ring, he is the challenger, weighing 227lbs from Ontario, Canada, this is the Saviour, Chris Jones!!”

Jones walks around the ring waiting for Wunderbar to come out and eager to get the match underway. Then the German national anthem begins to raucous boos.

“And his opponent from Berlin, Germany, he weighed in tonight at 275lbs, he is the WZCW Mayhem Champion, Wilhelm Wunderbar!!!”

Fans are booing loudly but Wunderbar doesn’t come out. The fans anticipate Wunderbar’s entrance but from out of nowhere, a small crowd pop can be heard. Everyone is turning their heads and the camera is lost as it doesn’t know where to look. Suddenly Wunderbar jumps the barrier from the crowd by the announce tables and attacks Jones from behind with a clubbing blow.

He has also brought a chair into the ring with him but he still pounds Jones with his fists and forearms. Jones is face down, protecting his head and neck. He tries to kick Wunderbar off but the current champ is too quick. He has already got up and collected the chair.

Copeland: “The damn Mayhem champion is assaulting Chris Jones with a damn sneak attack!”

With it he stands over Jones and with it, jabs it down on Jones’s neck, to loud booing. Jones rolls out of the ring but Wunderbar climbs the ropes and throws the chair at Jones. It collides with the top of his head, causing him to wheel away to avoid Wunderbar a little to regroup.

Wunderbar jumps down to ringside. Under the ring he pulls out a black bag. He undoes it and pulls a thick steel chain out. He also drags out a ladder but slides that in the ring for later use.

Wunderbar gathers the steel chain in two hands and stalks Jones who has walked around one corner of the ring. Coming from behind Jones, Wunderbar is able to pull the chain over his head and pull back. Chris’s eyes nearly pop out when he realises what is being done and after a lot of flailing, it takes a desperate low blow for Wunderbar to stop. Jones turns and clobbers Wunderbar with a clothesline.

Cohen: “Our champion is showing how brutal he can be and he needs to get back on top of Jones now!”

Copeland: “This is absolute mayhem from both men”

Jones follows it up with stomps to the head. He takes the chain from Wunderbar and uses it himself to begin choking Wunderbar from behind.

He then wraps it around his own fist and begins to pound Wunderbar in the top of the head with it! He recoils and tries to shield himself from the assault but Jones is relentless and he is punching Wunderbar all over his body with his fist covered in this chain!

Jones picks up Wunderbar, whose body is now red from that vicious assault and rolls him into the ring. Jones follows him and picks up the chair; the very same chair that Wunderbar brought in previously.

He looks over at Wunderbar who is still recovering from the chain assisted beating. He walks over and raises the chair, holding it menacingly over Wunderbar. But the champion instinctively kicks out and connects with Jones’s mid section! Jones allows the chair to fall down in front of him. Wunderbar takes it from him and jabs it right between Jones’s legs!

Copeland: “Owww!”

Connors: "That is going to leave a mark."

Jones falls to his knees, grabbing his mid-section. Wunderbar crawls away and using the ropes to stand himself up. But then in a sudden showing of energy, he runs the ropes and hits a stiff roundhouse kick and the noise resounds around the arena!

The referee checks on both men. Wunderbar stands on his own weight and is taunting Jones, daring him to get to his feet. As he does, Wunderbar nails a huge German suplex! Cover! 1...2...Jones forces his shoulder out!

Cohen: “That should have been three!”

Connor: “He got his shoulder up!”

Cohen: “The ref was slow, this should be over already!”

Wunderbar looks frustrated. He goes and collects the ladder that was rolled into the ring earlier. He picks it up and places it on his shoulders before dropping the end of it on Jones’s throat!

Jones stumbles around on his knees and tries to protect himself further. But Wunderbar doesn’t allow this and he is quickly on the attack. He grabs Jones’ wrist from behind and hits a armdrag, which plants Jones face first on the mat. He keeps hold of the arm, lifts him up and then hits an armbreaker on the ladder!

Wunderbar grabs the arm again before standing and tries to hit the Eagle Suplex but Jones fights out of it and back body drops Wunderbar over his head. The German crashes to the mat!

Jones sees his opportunity and gets up first. He hits a Shining Wizard which makes another loud impact and he follows it up quickly with a backbreaker. He hooks the leg and goes for another cover, but Wunderbar kicks out at two!

Copeland: “Chris Jones is desperate to regain this Mayhem title!"

Connors: "He just can’t put Wunderbar down!”

Both men are clearly exhausted. Jones is up first. He sees the ladder and looks at the floored Wunderbar. He steps over him, places the ladder over the corner before climbing to the second rope. He puts the ladder by his side and falls back, suplexing the ladder on the back of Wunderbar!!!! Jones slides across for the cover! 1...2.....Wunderbar narrowly escapes the three count again.

Jones looks happier as Wunderbar writhes around in more pain, clutching his lower back. He looks around and finds the chair that was used against him only minutes earlier lying by the ropes.

He picks it up and lays it next to Wunderbar. Jones pulls Wunderbar up, puts his arm around his back and goes for the Lifesaver but Wunderbar blocks it, pushes him away and nails the Panzer DDT to Jones on the chair! Wunderbar rolls the lifeless Jones onto his back and covers him. 1....2....Jones barely kicks out!

Wunderbar grabs the damaged arm and although Jones tries to fight it, Wunderbar is able to wrench the arm, controlling him and moving him to the ropes. He whips Jones off to the opposite turnbuckle. Wunderbar expects him to come back but Jones holds the ropes using his healthy arm. Wunderbar runs at Jones but the former champion evades it and Wunderbar dives through head-first through the ropes. He crashes to the floor! Jones sees him and climbs to the top rope before flying off with a huge elbow drop which crushes the German’s sternum.

Jones gets up slowly and he does, he grabs Wunderbar’s leg and applies a single leg Boston Crab. Wunderbar screams and reaches, desperately trying not to tap out. Jones tries to develop the hold into the Angel lock but Wunderbar is fighting the transition.

Copeland: “Wunderbar is fighting against the Angel Lock!”

Wunderbar eventually kicks him off and as he does, Jones’s head crashes into the edge of the announcers table. The referee checks on both men again. Wunderbar is up first and is limping heavily, Jones is bleeding quite heavily from a cut on the top of his head.

Cohen: “This is going to be the opening that Wunderbar will use to end Chris Jones!"

Connors: "That’s a huge gash!”

Copeland: "That is a huge dent to Jones's chances here tonight"

Wunderbar is feeling the momentum shift in his favour. He grabs Jones and shoves him back into the ringside barrier. He grabs the ringside steps and moves them away from the ring post. He brings Jones over to the ring post and hits a STO which drops Jones head first onto the steel. Wunderbar gets up and looks at the bloody mark that has been left on it. He then goes for another cover. 1....2.......Jones somehow kicks out at the very last second!

Copeland: “I can’t believe that Jones is still in this. Both men are redefining the violent Mayhem division!”

Connor: "This is a match of the year candidate!"

Wunderbar goes mad again with anger. He lifts up the ring steps and throws them in frustration before getting an intense look in his eyes. With Jones dazed and devastated by the brutal offense, he is easily dragged over to the ring steps which he kicks into place by the announce table.

Cohen: “Wilhelm is clearly unimpressed. I don’t know how Jones is surviving here.”

He rolls Jones onto it and forces the announcers to scatter. He lifts Jones, put him into position for the Kaizerplex, but Jones elbows him in the ribs. Wunderbar swings at him but misses and loses his balance. He falls off the announce table and as he turns around, Jones launches himself and lands a massive moonsault! Wunderbar is floored and Jones lands on him. The ref counts, 1...2....Wunderbar kicks out barely!!!!

Jones brings the ring steps into position and he applies a hammerlock and hits the Lifesaver on the ring steps! He slowly rolls over Wunderbar and covers him! 1................2...............Wunderbar kicked out!

Copeland: “Now Jones is wondering how he isn’t a two time Mayhem champion.”

Jones is incredulous, with his head in his hands. He slowly gets up and reaches for the champions leg. Wunderbar instinctively kicks out and for the first time we see his face is now bloody. Jones comes back and reaches out. Wunderbar again instinctively reaches out and tries to grab Jones in the mount and hook in the Kaizerlock. Jones pulls his arm and resorts to fiercely punching Wunderbar. The German fights back, kicks Jones straight in the face and then rolls out of the way. He crawls back and away from Jones. He locates a chair from ringside and hides it, pretending to be bent over.

Jones comes over, thinking that Wunderbar is ripe for the taking but the German deceitfully lunges forward and crushes Jones’s skull with the chair!!!!

Cohen: “What a huge shot to the head!"

Copeland: "Jones looks lifeless!”

Jones collapses to the floor. Wunderbar grabs the ring steps that are still ringside and pushes them into the ring before grabbing Jones and rolling him in too. Wunderbar drops the rings steps on his arm! Jones’ scream is bloodcurding but Wunderbar doesn’t hesitate, quickly applying the Kaizerlock, for the tap out which comes quickly!!!

Harrys: "The winner of this match by submission and STILL the Mayhem champion, Das Kaizer, Wilhelm Wunderbar!!"

Copeland: “Wilhelm Wunderbar retains the Mayhem title in one of the most brutal matches I think we have ever had!”

Cohen: “The Saviour is dead, Heil Das Kaizer, still the Mayhem champion!”

----------------------

The camera goes backstage, where we see the Crashin Movement celebrating in a locker room. Doug Crashin turns toward the camera and begins to speak.

For months, myself and my movement have been treated as a joke. Mocked throughout WZCW, even though we had the Mayhem Division at our mercy and destroyed 2 reigning WZCW World Tag Team Champions plus a promising team of rookies. But now, (Crashin turns and motions for Kurtesy and Holmes to come forward and Crashin slaps their belts) we have these. The Crashin Movement is the best tag team in WZCW.

Even so, I am well aware that we will still not be given the respect we deserve. But that is okay. Earning respect is overrated. Tonight, we went out and grabbed it.

All three men flash big smiles and go back to their celebration.

-------------------
We go backstage, where Leon Kensworth is standing with Gordito.

Ladies and Gentlemen, my guest at this time is the Number 1 Contender to the WZCW World Heavyweight Title, Gordito.

It's good to be here, and ever better to hear you say that, Leon.

So Gordito, how do you feel going into what surely has to be the biggest match of your life?

Well, I would be lying to you if I said I wasn't a little bit nervous. But at the same time, I also have plenty of confidence. That past few weeks I have beaten some of the best men WZCW could throw at me. I earned my chance against Ty Burna. Tonight, I plan on fighting the match of my life and I know I can beat Ty and walk out of here as a World Champion. The second Ty underestimates me is the second he becomes a former WZCW World Champ.

Gordito nods at Leon and walks off camera. It focuses back on Leon before fading to black.

 

[Phoenix]

Harrys: The following contest is scheduled for one fall!

​

Everest makes his way out to a loud pop. He makes his way down the entrance ramp and points to the crowd on his way down. He stops at ringside and eyes up some beautiful women sitting at ringside before entering the ring and posing for the crowd.

Harrys: Introducing first, from Los Angeles, California. He stands 6'0" and weighs 205 lbs, Everest!

Copeland: Many people have said that Everest is at the twilight of his career, yet he keeps proving week after week that he is just as potent in the ring as anyone in WZCW, in fact going toe to toe with the WZCW World Champion on Ascension last week.

Cohen: But did he win Seabass? I didn't think so. Everest's downward spiral will continue tonight after Big Dave thrashes him within an inch of his life.

​

Big Dave makes his way out to a thunderous boo from the crowd. The spotlight shines down on him as the lights dim low and he makes his way down the ramp, his eyes focused directly on Everest. He enters the ring and raises his arm up and the crowd boos him again.

Harrys: And his opponent, from London, England. He stands 6'1" and weighs 268 lbs, Big Dave!

Connor: Big Dave vacated the Eurasian Championship earlier this month on the hopes he would win the Gold Rush Tournament. His chance was pulled out from under him by Chuck Myles when he disqualified him from the tournament and barred him from competing for the World Title until after Lethal Lottery.

Cohen: And since Everest decided he had nothing better to do, he decided to challenge Big Dave and the opportunity to end his career with a beating like no other.

The ref signals for the bell and the two immediately lock up in the middle of the ring. Dave overpowers Everest and backs him into the corner and begins pounding away at him. Everest covers up and the ref counts to four before finally dragging Dave away. Dave smirks and motions for Everest to get up. Everest obliges him and gets to his feet, and Dave meets him with a hard right hand. Everest gets rocked and stumbles back into the ropes. Big Dave rushes forward but Everest slides down and pulls the top rope down, sending Dave crashing to the outside. Everest gets to his feet and taps his forehead to the delight of the crowd.

Cohen: Oh please, quit acting like you fooled anyone Everest. Any idiot can slip and pull the top rope down.

Copeland: I beg to differ Jack, Everest got the early momentum swung back in his direction with that maneuver.

Everest slides out of the ring and lifts Dave up. He slams him back first into the guard rail and Dave winces in pain. Everest begins stomping away at Dave before punching him squarely in the jaw. The ref's count reaches six and Everest throws Dave under the bottom rope, delivering an elbow to the face for good measure. He slides back in the ring and drags Dave to the middle of the ring and goes for a cover 1....2.... Dave kicks out. Everest sits up and looks at Dave for a moment before getting to his feet and motioning for Dave to get up. Dave struggles to his feet and Everest goes to whip him to the corner, but Dave resists and pulls Everest towards him and hits a huge powerslam. Dave barely hooks a leg and goes for a pin 1...2.. Everest kicks out.

Connor: Everest had a flurry of offense there, but I'm surprised he didn't try his usual submissions when he had Dave down. That could be a critical error on his part. He can't think he can match power for power with Big Dave.

Cohen: I think it's a sign CC.

Connor: A sign for what?

Cohen: Everest is developing Alzheimer's! He can't even remember his own moves!

Both men get to their feet and Dave begins punching away at Everest. He backs him into the rope and whips him across. He connects with a Big Boot, sending Everest careening across the ring. Everest lies on the ground, holding the back of his neck as Dave strolls over to Everest and grabs him by the throat and lifts him up to his feet. He promptly tosses Everest across the ring by his throat, and Everest crashes next to the rings. His moment causes him to roll out of the ring and land hard on the outside. Dave poses in the middle of the ring and crowd boos him mercilessly. Dave exits the ring and the ref begins the ten count. Dave picks Everest up and drops him face first across the announcer's table. He follows up by slamming Everest's head into the announcer's table before throwing him into the ring post. Everest's shoulder hits hard into the post and he crumbles to the ground holding his affected shoulder.

Cohen: Yes! Big Dave is just destroying Everest out there. Perhaps it's time for the old man to face retirement finally.

Connor: Don't count Everest out, he's got a few tricks up his sleeve.

Dave walks over to Everest and lifts him up. He pulls him from the post and looks to drive him back first into the post this time but Everest reverses and sends Dave face first into the post. The reversal elicits a roar from the crowd and Everest recovers his senses for a moment before sliding into the ring at the count of eight. Dave gets to his feet after meeting the post and slides into the ring at the last second. Everest quickly jumps on Everest and begins throwing bombs. Dave tosses Everest off him and gets to his feet. Everest rushes forward but Dave catches him with the Checking Out! Dave drapes his arm over Everest. 1...2......Everest gets his foot on the rope! The ref stops the count and points to Everest's foot. Dave slowly sits up and yells at the referee in disbelief. He gets to his feet and backs the ref into the corner, pushing him in the chest. Suddenly Everest pulls Big Dave down with a roll up! 1.....2..... Dave kicks out! Everest lowers his head in frustration before getting to his feet and pulling the struggling Dave to his feet. He connects with a few kicks but Dave answers with kicks of his own. They both go for a high kick at the same time and both connect. They collapse to the ground and the ref begins a ten count.

Copeland: These two are just going at it! No one has been able to gain the upper hand.

Cohen: This can't be happening! Dave is the best in WZCW, how is he letting an old relic keep up with him?

The ref reaches a count of seven and both men begin stirring. Dave is to his feet first and goes for a clothesline on Everest. Everest ducks and quickly catches Dave with a reverse DDT. He keeps his arm around Dave and locks in The Mountain Climber! Dave struggles in the hold and reaches out towards the ropes but Everest knocks his arm away. Dave roars out in pain and with one last effort reaches out and grabs the middle rope. The ref begins the five count and Everest is forced to relinquish the hold. Everest gets to his feet and signals for The Rock Slide. Dave gets to his feet and Everest catches him in position for his finisher, but Dave hits a few elbows against Everest and lifts him up for The Stamp of Authority! Everest struggles out of the hold and lands on his feet. Both men start throwing bombs at one another. Big Dave gets the upper hand and lifts Everest and drops him with The Stamp of Authority! Dave hooks the leg, 1..2...Everest kicks out! Dave gets up in a state of disbelief and his hands behind his head.

Connor: Everest kicked out!

Cohen: Are you kidding me? Was it just a seizure that forced him to move? It has to be NOBODY kicks out of the Stamp of Authority.

Big Dave's face contorts with fury in his eyes and he grabs Everest and throws him into the corner, throwing more bombs at him. He goes to whip Everest but he gets countered and Everest hits The Rock Slide out of nowhere! He drapes an arm over Dave, 1..2.... Dave kicks out! Everest slowly gets to his knees, breathing heavily as Dave looks to be out in the middle of the ring. Everest slowly drags Dave up but Dave hits a huge lifting knee, knocking Everest back. Everest stumbles forward and Dave goes for a clothesline but Everest suddenly counters with a small package and gets Dave's shoulders down, but Dave moves and both men have each other hooked! The ref counts to three and they both release the small package.

Copeland: I think Everest got the win there. He had Dave's shoulders down.

Cohen: What are you talking about Seabass? Big Dave clearly had Everest pinned there.

Connor: The ref has gone over to the time keeper, we'll get the final decision here.

The ref is discussing with Harrys and the ref nods while Everest and Dave look on perplexed.

Harrys: Ladies and Gentlemen, this match has been called a draw via double pin!

Cohen: WHAT?!??!

Copeland: Unbelievable! These two men were so equal this whole match, it's almost fitting it ended in a tie.

Dave and Everest look pissed in the ring. Dave turns to the returning ref and begins yelling at him again. Everest walks up to Dave and spins him around and drops him hard with the Rock Slide! The crowd pops wildly as Everest raises his arm up and Dave is lied out in the middle of the ring. Everest exits the ring and begins making his way up the ramp only to turn around at the top as Dave reaches his knees. Dave stares Everest down intensely and slowly pulls himself to his feet. Everest smirks and nods his head before making his way to the back.

Cohen: I just can't believe this, who hires these refs?

Copeland: Regardless, these two fought to an epic draw tonight! I have no doubt that will not sit well with either man. Well Ladies and Gentleman, up next we got the Elite X Championship, it's being defended in the first ever Iron Man Match. There's thirty minutes for Austin Reynolds and Showtime Cougar to score as many falls in the time limit, who will walk out as champion?

------------------------------

John Constantine is shown sitting in the backstage medical room. He has a large bag of ice which he is holding against his forehead and a particularly pained and angry look on his face.

Constantine: This whole night has been an entire disaster. And where the hell is that damn doctor with my prescription pills. I just want to jet back to my office and forget this whole mess ever occured. Those wrestlers will rue the day they screwed John Constantine out of the EurAsian Title.

John Constantine's assiatant Mia slowly walks into the room. She quietly approaches Constantine with a small document in her hand.

Mia: I'm terribly sorry that this upset has befallen you Mr. Constantine. This telegram did just arrive for you. It is marked "Urgent"

Constantine rips the telegram from Mia's hand and reads it over. He rubs his chin and ponders.

Constantine: Mia, tell my limo driver I will be a little while longer. I have some new unfinished business that I must take care of first.

 

[Phoenix]

Austin stands on top of the turnbuckle and posses on the corner. "Ladies and Gentlemen" cuts in and Showtime walks out dressed in usualy business attire. He holding a couple of papers in his hand and a mic..

Reynolds: I know why you're out here. You're out here to try and say that you somehow got screwed out of the match. But the fact is that didn't happen Showtime. I beat you cleanly in that ring... 1... 2... 3... everyone saw it, I have proven myself to be the greatest Elite X Champion ever... and if you're out here demanding a shot, then move to the back of the line because you had your shot.

Showtime: Of course Mr. Reynolds. You say the camera sees everything. Mr. Camera man roll that beautiful footage from last Ascension.

The titantron shows the closing minute from the Reynolds vs Showtime. Reynolds hits the Ratings Killer from the top rope. As the ref slides to make the count, Showtimes right leg moves under the bottom rope. The ref makes the 3 count without ever looking up and calls for the bell. Showtimes foot remains under the rope as the video pauses.

What is that, what does that look like to you? It looks like my foot is under the rope. So now the camera shows it, the fans now it, and now you know it, that you didn't actually win, you self absorbed, egotistical bloat.

The fans cheer as a sneer of anger crosses Austin's face.

But Austin I have your redemption right here. It is a match contract signed by Bateman and me for us to have a rematch at All or Nothing. And this won't be just a regular match... no... Austin I want to beat you more times than anyone else. That's why this match is a 30 Minute Iron Man Match!

The crowd explodes as Showtime and Reynolds go face to face.

Showtime: And if you're still a little scared to face me one on one, I'll sweeten the deal for you. There is a clause in this contract I put in myself. If you win this match Austin, then I will retire from WZCW. Something for you to think about.

-----------

Ascension 22

Showtime rolls onto his knees as Kurtesy still hasn’t’ moved, he goes to crawl over and is about to get the arm over only for the crowd to jump as Austin Reynolds runs down from the stage, Showtime stops the cover attempt and gets up ready to intercept the Elite X Champion, only that Reynolds runs around the ring rather than into it, heading straight for the timekeeper and reclaiming his championship belt. Showtime looked pissed as he climbs out in pursuit as Reynolds runs over the barricade, going through the crowd with Showtime in pursuit. Reynolds heads up into the upper seating area as the crowd are cheering in a frenzy, Showtime is following closely saying “You can’t steal that from me!”

Reynolds stops at one of the entrances as Showtime stands at the bottom of the stairs, he follows in pursuit until Reynolds points back at the ring, to which Showtime turns and sees the referee is up to the count of 7, he starts running back down the stairs, 8, back through the crowd who get out of his way, 9, he leaps over the barricade getting close to the ring, 10! The referee signals for the bell.

Anderson: Here is your winner as a result of a countout, Dr. Steven Kurtesy!

Kurtesy and Crashin quickly roll out of the ring and up the ramp as Showtime is one knee outside the ring with a look of anger and disgust at what just happened, he stares out blankly before he gets back up to his feet. Austin Reynolds hasn’t moved as he has a smile on his face, though he suddenly frowns when he looks at it. Austin doesn’t look happy to have his title back though. He pulls out some paperwork from his back pocket and uses the faceplate of the title to sign it. He then gets a mic out, raising it to speak.

Reynolds: Showtime David Cougar, The Ratings Winner Austin Reynolds, Elite X Championship, 30 minute Iron Man match, All Or Nothing.

He screws up the contract and throws it down the ramp in Showtime’s general direction, pausing the crowd dies down a little.

You’re ON!!!

The crowd erupts, Showtime looks pleased but Austin’s face doesn’t change at all as he raises the championship high, staring at his pay per view opponent.

The bell signals as Selena Anderson stands in the middle of the ring.

Anderson: The following contest is the 30 minute Iron Man Match for the WZCW Elite X Championship! The individual who scores the most falls in the thirty minute time limit will be the winner and the Elite X Champion!

​

The crowd gives a mixed reaction, leaning more on boos as the spotlights around the stage spin around the arena until they all meet in the centre focusing on one point as a set of pyros go off as the challenger arises from the stage with his back facing the crowd. He stretches out his arms as he slowly turns around and smirks to the crowd who give a similar reaction to earlier. Showtime heads down the ramp as he points to different crowd members and winking at others.

Anderson: Introducing first the challenger, from Winnipeg, Canada, weighing 213 pounds, Showtime Cougar!

Copeland: Showtime Cougar, the challenger for this match has sure got a smile going on his face, he’s no doubt feeling confident as he got this match through stealing the Elite X Championship. But surely the doubt and the thought of being out of a job is stuck in his mind?

Cohen: If you’re like Showtime, which you’re not, you need to put on a face to the crowd to show that belief that you know you’re a winner no matter the odds. You think people would have these sort of mind games worked out by now surely?

Connor: Well regardless of his confidence, this will be the longest thirty minutes of Showtime’s life.

Showtime rolls under the ropes, getting to his feet immediately as he poses to the crowd in front of the ropes before ascending the turnbuckle and motioning a belt around his waist before he drops to the mat and stands waiting in anticipation for his opponent.

​

The crowd cheers in a frenzy as spotlights spin again with different colours as Austin Reynolds makes his way out on the stage with the Elite X Belt around his waist, he leans forward pointing in many directions at the crowd before pacing forward. He stops and unhooks the belt so it’s in both his hands before he raises it high as streams of fireworks come from the ceiling and hit the stage behind him setting off a huge set of pyros behind him which is deafening to the crowd. He holds the belt over his shoulder before proceeding down the ramp.

Anderson: His opponent, from The West End of London, England, weighing in at 190 pounds, he is the WZCW Elite X Champion, Austin Reynolds!

Copeland: The longest reigning Elite X Champion in WZCW history hasn’t had an opposite in similarity or determination as Showtime Cougar. To give no discredit to the new EurAsian Champion, Austin Reynolds has managed to hold off any offence to his championship until Showtime Cougar set his sights on him.

Cohen: Which shows that Reynolds may not be as ready as he should be. Yeah he got the fluke win a couple of weeks ago but he didn’t think Showtime would let him off easy now would you?

Connor: But then the last time an Elite X Champion was at All or Nothing, he was challenging for the World Heavyweight Championship. The last time this belt was defended at this pay per view, we saw a new champion crowned. Hopefully the stats won’t put Reynolds off in this defence.

Reynolds climbs up to the apron and holds the belt up high before he climbs in and ascends the turnbuckle raising the belt once again to a series of flashes. He jumps down as the lights go up, he holds the belt in front of him, looking at it before he eyes up his opponent as they stand staring before Reynolds passes the belt over to the referee who presents the belt to them and the crowd. He goes over to give the belt only for Showtime to grab it and make at swing at Reynolds who ducks it and hits a couple of rights before irish whipping him as the bell signals and the thirty minutes show up on the screen. Reynolds hits a dropkick on Showtime and drops the elbow on his face with a quick cover 1…….2…., kickout by Showtime. Reynolds stops for a moment before he steps to his feet as does Showtime where they face each other again only for Showtime to slap his opponent in disrespect which has Reynolds having an unsurprised look on his face with a shrouded smirk on his face before he challenges Showtime do it again and obliges only to be blocked and countered with a huge slap from the Ratings Winner himself which has the crowd in a cheer as Reynolds followed up with a back drop on the Showman.

Reynolds is back to his feet along with his opponent who knocks an elbow into the abs before grabbing the arm and trying to stretch it with the armbar as Reynolds tries to block only for Showtime to hit an armdrag to take his opponent down while keeping the arm locked as Reynolds tries to keep his arm bent before Showtime lets go, getting to his feet and kicking the shoulder hard which has Reynolds hold it in some pain as the crowd boos. Showtime then shoves Reynolds down before stomping on the arm a couple of times before the referee backs him off to check on the Elite X Champion who says he can go on. As he gets to his feet, Showtime hits an enziguri into the arm which has Reynolds stinging in pain as he paces a bit before Showtime is back with a clothesline which knocks Reynolds onto his shoulder before he gently rolls to the outside. Showtime stands posing which has the crowd in boos before he climbs out to follow as the ref starts a ten count.

Cohen: Five minutes gone and Showtime has the control here. Good thing too because he’s actually saving Reynolds from exhausting himself with that quick offence, giving an easy victory.

Connor: Reynolds’ arm must be in some pain, this could really affect his offence for the next twenty five minutes as the clock will run down. Hopefully he won’t be reckless.

Reynolds tries to rub his shoulder to get some feeling back as Showtime stands waiting behind, he taps him on the shoulder as he goes to grab him but Reynolds ducks, effectively rolling his opponent over him to the floor. Reynolds gets him up as Showtime tries to block but is hit with an elbow to the face before being shoved into the barrier. The ref’s count is now up to six as Reynolds keeps watch but gives Showtime a couple of kicks to knock him down to a knee. He heads to the ring and rolls back in as the ref counts to eight. Showtime is back on his feet and walks to the ring, nine, but is met with a baseball slide from the champion as the ref hits ten and signals to the timekeeper as the bell sounds.

Anderson: The winner of the fall, Austin Reynolds!

The crowd cheers as Showtime Cougar looks annoyed before he slides back in with Reynolds waiting, he runs at him but his opponent leap frogs over him, on the return, Showtime knocks the shoulder which has Reynolds in pain as Showtime follows up with a Ratings Crash on the shoulder in pain and goes with a cover, forcing the pressure onto the same shoulder, 1…….2…….3.

Anderson: The winner of the fall, Showtime Cougar!

Showtime wastes no time as he tries a second pin but Reynolds shoves off his shoulder the referee even hits one but then Showtime locks onto the shoulder and then hits a triangle choke hold which applies pressure to the shoulder and the neck of Reynolds who’s nowhere near the ropes, he tries to hold back the pain but can’t deny how bad it is, he tries to think about what to do but shakes his head and taps out as Showtime lets go of the hold as he stops for a moment to take a break by the ropes.

Anderson: The winner of the fall, Showtime Cougar!

Showtime then runs back to Reynolds and tries to get the triangle locked in again but Reynolds blocks it before knocking an elbow into Showtime’s face as the clock shows up with twenty minutes remaining. Reynolds keeps himself near to the ropes as Showtime is kept at a distance by the referee. He gets to his feet while keeping hold of the ropes, keeping hold of the shoulder. Showtime charges at him but Reynolds ducks under and lifts him over the ropes, which has him landing on the apron, Reynolds then grabs him and suplexes him back inside the ring. Reynolds is up again despite the shoulder pain but spots an opportunity and hits a lionsault, landing on his opponent but also knocks the shoulder. Reynolds holds on for a moment before crawling over to his foe and getting a weak cover on, 1…….2….kickout. Reynolds has a slight look of worry on his face as he holds the shoulder before getting slowly up to his feet again as Showtime still remains on the floor. Reynolds gets onto the apron as he slowly climbs up the turnbuckle. He reaches the top as Showtime is virtually on his feet, Reynolds times in waiting as he leaps off with a roaring elbow to take down his opponent but holds the shoulder still from the impact of the landing.

Copeland: Austin’s shoulder is still in some pain, while no doubt tapping out was so he could last the remaining seventeen minutes, his offence is heavily affected. The way back is going to be tough.

Connor: A draw will do the champion good, get a pin and keep Showtime at bay, will make it easier for him.

Cohen: Easier said than done when you have to cope with Showtime for nearly sixteen minutes now.

Showtime is up first as Reynolds is near the ropes again as he tries to keep his offence up only Showtime cuts him off at the ropes, leaning him against it with some knife edge chops which has the crowd cheering woo, he does this a couple of more times before he irish whips him which Reynolds counters, he drops to the floor to avoid the rebound but then throws Cougar with his legs via a monkey flip to land him on his back to the cheer of the crowd as Reynolds tries to get his opponent to come at him. Showtime is up again and responds to his opponent’s request but is countered with a sudden frankensteiner from Reynolds who begins to feel the adrenaline rush as he ascends the turnbuckle once more, trying to avoid the feeling of pain, he taps his elbow as the crowd cheer, only Showtime jumps up to his feet, runs up the turnbuckle and hits a surprise Final Act from the top rope which has both men down as the crowd applaud and boo the action. Showtime gets an arm over as the ref counts, 1…….2…….3.

Anderson: The winner of the fall, Showtime Cougar!

Showtime steadily rolls out of the ring as he leans against the apron to let his two fall lead sink in as the referee counts him on the outside while Reynolds is still down from the Final Act he just received. The clock appears on the screen showing another twelve minutes remain with score at 3-1 to Showtime, he slides back in the ring and goes for another cover on Reynolds, 1…….2…..he gets his hand on the ropes. Showtime has a slight frustrated look as Reynolds keeps hold of the ropes to drag himself up, taking his time despite being unaware of how much time is left. Showtime allows Reynolds to get up again as he stands waiting, once Reynolds is fully vertical, Showtime comes is barges the shoulder again which has taken so much offence from the challenger. Reynolds lets go as he paces away which has Showtime run at him with an attempt of a neckbreaker, but Reynolds ducks and runs at the ropes, rebounding off and goes for a leg lariat, it connects but Showtime grabs hold of it and locks it up to apply the Commerical Break, Reynolds is winching in pain as Showtime calls at him to tap as ten minutes flash up on the screen. Reynolds crawls slowly to ropes but is doing so on one arm, with the pain in his shoulder making it hard for him move steadily as the crowd are cheering him on but Reynolds refuses allow another fall go to Showtime. He keeps crawling as Showtime feels the victory drawing near, only Reynolds makes a grab out with his bad shoulder and reaches the ropes, the referee gets Showtime to relinquish the hold as Reynolds his shoulder which hurts from the hard stretch he did.

Copeland: Less than ten minutes remain, can Reynolds pull it back?

Cohen: Doubt Seabass, he’s fallen too far behind!

Showtime tries grabbing the leg again to drag Reynolds into the ring but he kicks him once and then another time before shoving him away, he rolls onto his feet and hits a few rights on Showtime to daze him, he grabs the arm and shoves him against the ropes to try and Irish whip but it’s reversed by Showtime, Reynolds then leaps at the ropes to springboard off and hits a sudden Ego Crush out of nowhere and follows up with a cover, 1……2…….3. The crowd cheer in excitement

Anderson: The winner of the fall, Austin Reynolds!

Showtime can’t believe it as he gets up to his feet, he goes for the offence again but is met with a Ratings Killer from Reynolds but both men are down which has the crowd building up as the clock flashes with seven minutes to go with cheers of “Austin, Austin, Austin” echoing out as he gets some life back into him and rolls to get his weak arm over Showtime, 1……..2……kickout by Showtime, the crowd are booing.

The crowd cheers in excitement as Showtime’s complacency cost him a fall as he has a shock look on his face with two minutes to go, he holds his hair in disbelief.

Cohen: No! Showtime’s going to be gone from WZCW! No!

Copeland: Showtime shouldn’t have been teasing and provoking the champion. Now it’s going to cost him and there’s only a hundred seconds remaining!

Showtime gets to his feet and tries for a clothesline but Reynolds ducks it and uses the momentum to go the Ratings Killer again but Showtime ducks him and rolls out of the ring as he looks on with frustration as the clock continues to run down. He gets in again but Reynolds is quick on him as he tries to take him down, not giving him an opening. Showtime knocks the elbow on Reynolds hurt shoulder and tries to hit the Showstopper but Reynolds blocks it and shoves him. The clock strikes a minute to go as everyone’s attention turns to the entrance way as Constantine comes out with a chair looking very frustrated, Reynolds stands poised waiting as Showtime climbs out of the ring, Reynolds challenges Constantine to come in who is now at ringside. Showtime walks near Constantine and tries to motivate him to attack the Elite X Champion as thirty seconds now remain. Neither Reynolds or Constantine will budge as the clock is continuing to run down but Showtime gets frustrated and starts shouting at him going “my career is on the line”. The clock is now on fifteen seconds as Constantine shoves Showtime back and then goes at him with the chair, only to stop and tap him on the head as the referee signals for a disqualification. Showtime and Constantine start laughing as Reynolds looks on in frustration as the clock countdown from 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.

The crowd start booing as Reynolds can’t believe what just happened, the referee goes over to Anderson to discuss what just happen as he looks on with understanding.

Anderson: Ladies and Gentleman, as a result of a disqualification, the winner of the fall, Showtime Cougar. Therefore the winner of the match and NEW Elite X Champion, Showtime Cougar!

The crowd boos heavily as the referee provides Showtime with the Elite X belt as he and Constantine start laughing at the expense of Austin Reynolds who can’t believe what just happened. He looks deflated and shocked, but he looks at his two rivals and stares intently as they celebrate with the belt raised high.

Cohen: I told you Showtime wouldn’t let this one sit, and he had the perfect plain. Doesn’t matter what excuses you make Seabass or CC, Showtime Cougar knew the stipulations and got himself the victory with the Elite X Championship.

Copeland: Jack, Constantine and Showtime cheated to screw Austin Reynolds out of the belt. Regardless of what the referee awarded, Showtime blatantly got himself disqualified to get the winning fall.

Connor: You know that Austin Reynolds isn’t going to sleep tonight after this, not to mention that he will have vengeance in mind. Constantine is a marked man, not to mention that Reynolds will come after Showtime!

Showtime and Constantine exit through the curtain as Reynolds on his feet as he looks out at the fans with a look of disbelief on his face as he climbs out, heading out of the ring as the fans try to cheer him on.

Copeland: Well Ladies and Gentleman, the next match will guarantee that disqualifications won’t result in a championship change as it’s now time for the Main Event. Ty Burna defends his World Heavyweight Championship for the first time ever against an ever resilient Gordito, the winner of the Gold Rush Tournament. It’s one fall to the finish, who is leaving All or Nothing with the belt? Will it be the champion or will Gordito go that one further, let’s show you how Gordito got his opportunity.
