Championship Extravaganza 2-13-21
Ryan and AJ rise up off the mat. AJ stumbles back. Ryan runs at him for a big boot but AJ ducks and Ryan clocks the referee. He falls facedown on the mat.
Cliff Morris - The referee is down!.
Ryan stands back looking around. As he's looking around in shock. Jake Mason comes down to the ring, getting on the ring apron. Ryan sees him and comes at him and gets hit in the side of his neck with a cattle prod.
Cliff Morris - Jake Mason just hit Ryan Samuels with what appeared to be a electric cattle prod.
Logan Acker - I thought I smelled the smell of fresh meat burnt.
AJ looks on as Ryan flops around grabbing at his neck and riving in pain. Ryan staggers around. AJ grabs him and plants him with a implant DDT. He pushes him over covering him, a second referee slides in counting.

Cliff Morris - Fans welcome to UWL Saturday Night and we are Championship Promotions home of the Universal Wrestling League. Fan, you just saw the heinous attack at the hands of Jack Mason on Ryan Samuel at Championship Extravaganza on, February 13th.
i.imgur.com/QKBIWbJ.jpg
Logan Acker - You can almost still smell the burning smell in the air.
Cliff Morris - Oh would you. Fans, we have a loaded night of action. Tonight Jack Mason will be in tonight's main event taking on UWL World Champion Casey Holliday in the main event. We'll also have two debuts tonight. Chris Crippler will debut taking on, Matt Ryker. We will also see the debut of Kory Kramp.
Logan Acker - We both know what Chris Crippler is capable of. All of the fans here in Championship Promotions and all of UWL will find out as well.
Cliff Morris - Before their encounter at Only the Strong Survive on, March 20th for the United States Tag Team Championship, Azalo of the Herkmen takes on Dayna Grace of Euphoric. These two will do battle in a taped fist match. Fans let's not waste another second let's up to the ring and kick off tonight's action. Before we got to the ring let's hear these prerecorded comments.
BACKSTAGE...
Dayna Grace along with her tag team partner Caroline Clarke are seen walking down a long hallway. They are approached by Abby Joseph while cutting through the interview area.
Abby Joseph - Ladies. Can I have a word?
Dayna Grace - Sure. What’s up Abs...?
Abby Joseph - It’s no secret that last weekend you had an eventful night over in Mainstream Wrestling. It started out with Children of the Moon making an untimely appearance during the triple threat match between you Dayna, Chris Madison and Emma Douglas in a semi-final match for the United States Grand Prix.
Caroline Clarke - But we got our revenge when Julie Miri faced off against JC Keeton later that night which eventually led to an impromptu Tag Team Championship match.
Clarke wearing denim jeans, a sleeveless blouse and her Mainstream Wrestling Tag Team Championship title belt around her waist while supporting her Euphoric tag team partner Dayna Grace in singles action tonight.
Abby Joseph - You would go on to defeat Children of the Moon in a highly contested bout making headlines as a two time Mainstream Wrestling Tag Team Champions. Meanwhile here you are tonight Dayna, facing off against Azalo of the Herkmen.
Dayna Grace removes the Mainstream Wrestling Tag Team Championship title belt from around her waist and tosses it across her shoulder rubbing her fingers across the front faceplate of the belt.
Dayna Grace - Azalo and Nizbel seem to believe they have one over on Euphoric but in all actuality it was Nizbel who had his foot on the rope for leverage cheating to defeat Caroline at Championship Extravaganza.
Caroline Clarke - He knows he did it and he did it out of desperation. Because deep down he knew he couldn’t beat me otherwise.
Dayna Grace - Tonight we settle the score. Then after that we want a shot at those UWL United States Tag Team Championships!
Dayna Grace storms past Abby Joseph with Caroline Clarke following closely behind her.
Abby Joseph - Up next we’ll see Dayna Grace of Euphoric challenge Azalo of the Herkmen to kickoff UWL Saturday Night!

[ This video was previously recorded. ]
There was a camera set up In the locker room that belonged to Alexandria Monroe and Echo Layne also known as Team Madness. The camera was on you could see that the locker room was decorated with purple and pink balloons and streamers. There's also cupcakes and every kind of sweets that they liked sitting on the table.
"Ladies and gentlemen, CLAP for your NEW UWL Tag Team champions, "Team Madness!!!"
The male voice that introduced Team Madness wasn't visible on camera. People would find out who he was soon. Alex and Echo would step into the view of the camera. They had their shiny new tag titles over their shoulder. Alex and Echo had a tiara on their heads. They both would smile as they stood in front of the camera.
ECHO LAYNE - WE DID IT. We beat everyone that stood in our way of our dream.
ALEX MONROE - I mean we did tell them Echo. We told them every single day that we were going to win the tag titles. Now look at us we have shiney new titles. Team Madness ARE the Tag Team Champions.
Echo and Alex would look at each other and smile. They accomplished their goal and they are the tag team champions together.
ECHO LAYNE - This is the best feeling in the world. We went out there and did what we do best. Cause MADNESS...
ALEX MONROE - And.. WIN. As much as we want to sit here and gloat. Unfortunately we have a 6 man tag match to get ready for. I hate teaming with people we don't know. How can we trust them?
Team madness is teaming with James Edwards. Alex had googled him to see what he'd done. He has a nice list of accomplishments. Their match is against AJ Knight, Emma Douglas and Kalidah. Team Madness knew about AJ Knight and he was good. His tag partners are also good.
ECHO LAYNE - I have faith that James is going to come through for us.
ALEX MONROE - I hope you're right. We should have gone and checked James out.
Echo smirks.
ECHO LAYNE - We're the Tag Team Champions Alex. This match isn't going to stop us from shining and doing what we do best. Yeah, AJ Knight is like a boss in the ring but we can take him, even if he destroyed me before.
ALEX MONROE - Emma Douglas is a freaking beast. And Kalidah wears a cool mask….. you know what we are not going to think that way. Nope. Happy thoughts. Winning thoughts.
ECHO LAYNE - So UWL Universe as much as we would like to stay on Live all day. We have a match to get ready for.
ALEX MONROE - OH! Let's go find James and have a little chat with him about our tag match. I want to make sure we are on the same page.
Team Madness would wave to the camera before the screen went black…...
We go now to a previously recorded promo from earlier in the night. There we open out in the parking lot, where Billy Danielson is just arriving at the arena. He pulls his back out of the trunk of his car and makes his way through the parking lot. However, he only gets a hand full of steps before getting mobbed by Abby Joseph and her interview crew. Danielson looks absolutely disgusted as they approach him, but Abby just wants to get a quick word in with the self-acclaimed “Greatest of All Time”.
Abby Joseph - Mr. Danielson, can I get a word?
Billy stops in his tracks as Joseph looks at him with hope that a heel wasn’t going to blow her off. Danielson sighs and talks to the lowly interviewer.
Billy Danielson - It doesn’t seem like I have much of a choice, do I?
A groan comes from “The Franchise” as Abby smiles and starts to initiate the interview.
Abby Joseph - Mr. Danielson, about your match a couple of weeks ago-
Billy Danielson - Let me cut you off right there…
Danielson places a finger on the lips of Abby to quiet her.
Billy Danielson - So many people clamor and scream that Casey Holliday is the top wrestler in this company. So many people believe that because she holds the world title, that means she is something more than she truly is. What I did at Championship Extravaganze was prove that Casey is weak and that I truly am operating at a level that not even our World Champion can keep up with.
Abby tries to ask a follow-up question, but Billy has begun monologuing, and we all know how heels like to monolgue.
Billy Danielson - If you watch that match back, you can see the fear and desperation in Casey’s eyes after I pinned her. It’s the same fear and desperation James Edwards had when he begged me for a rematch. It’s the kind of fear and desperation that celebrities, businesspeople, and politicians give off when they get caught being the subpar humans that they are. It’s the innate survival tactic to save face so that people like you don’t realize the cracks in their proverbial armor.
He pauses for a moment, and again Abby Joseph tries to speak, but Billy cuts hers off.
Billy Danielson - And I know what you’re going to ask me. “But Mr. Danielson, you lost both of those respective matches”, and to that, I ask you… did I?
Abby joseph looks at Danielson with confusion.
Billy Danielson - You see, two weeks ago, I talked about how even when I was on a business-related hiatus, I was still held in better standings than most of the self-proclaimed workhorses in this company. I was gone, and people made jokes. They called me Billy “The Ghost”, because I had vanished without a trace… BUT WHERE ARE THEY NOW? I came back and I insulted the very legacy this company stands upon, and what happened? James Edwards comes crying to me for another match because I abused him, and he had to go and come up with a stipulation that put him in the driver seat because he couldn’t beat me in a normal wrestling match.
He scoffs
Billy Danielson - Then after I left him in the dust, I instantly get awarded with not one, but two matches against our World Champion because I questioned her abilities and said she didn’t deserve it, and I did the exact same thing to Casey as I did Jimmy. I’ll even go so far as to say, despite her hands getting raised both times, I stood taller because of it. She needed help to beat me the first time, and the second time she’d rather keep me away from the ring rather than get embarrassed for a second pin.
He looks down on Abby with a smirk, and she looks almost concerned for her safety as he places a hand on her shoulder.
Billy Danielson - Now tell me, Abigail, does any of that sound like a loss to you?
Abby opens her mouth, but Danielson just keeps cutting her off.
Billy Danielson - Of course it does, because you’re still operating on that small brain scale the rest of this company is using. These people cheer the names of cowards, and rain praises upon the mundane. They glorify their heroes, but those names never last. They fall victim to the very game they swear to uphold, and when the going gets tough, they end up betraying their morals for something better anyways.
That smirk grows to a near-psychotic grin on his face.
Billy Danielson - People like AJ Knight and myself though, we last. We’re the ones who walk into companies and tear down your icons before your very eyes. We breath new life into the competition because we change the way the game is played, and we begin to expose just how fearful and desperate a roster can be.
Billy pauses for a moment and Abby Joseph just stares at him. Danielson waves his hand, signaling her to hurry up with her next question. She quickly utters out
Abby Joseph - But what does any of that have to do with yo-
Danielson cuts her off again.
Billy Danielson - What does any of this have to do with my match tonight? Well I’m glad you asked, Abigail…
Another cocky smirk
Billy Danielson - It doesn’t. This whole spiel is for me to break down the fact that I, and a select few in this company, are on a level that not even Caleb Hart could reach in his prime. I am the next step in the evolutionary chain for professional wrestling, so guys like Owen Daniels, the son of a man I humiliate on a daily basis, mean nothing to me.
Abby looks at Danielson, just completely in awe of how narcissistic he is.
Billy Danielson - I’ve beaten Owen three out of three times, and he swears it’s the greatest experience in the ring that he has ever had every single time. He claims that his hatred for me brings him to another level of competitiveness he has yet to see in any other match, but for me… he’s just another Daniels to humiliate.
A final boss-ian chuckle comes from Danielson, as he looks at the camera.
Billy Danielson - And I know there is still some of you that hope that this little blind squirrel will find his nut today and finally beat me, but that’s not how this works. I’m going to do the same thing to Owen as I have done to Casey and James. I’m going to abuse him, and proe just how fearful and desperate he is too… only difference is, Owen isn’t on Holliday and Edwards’ levels either. So who knows… this might be the last time we see Owen Daniels in professional wrestling in general?
Danielson looks at Abby Joseph, but she doesn’t seem to be as excited for the possible end of Owen Daniels’ career as Billy is. He just shrugs and looks at her.
Billy Danielson - Though I have a feeling we won’t be so lucky.
Billy signals for Abby to continue, but she’s just kind of dumbfounded. Billy Danielson is very obviously beyond just egotistical… he may honestly believe he is God’s Gift to Wrestling. Abby sheepishly mutters out a few words.
Abby Joseph - An-y last words???
Billy takes a second to think up any.
Billy Danielson - No, I think I’ve covered all of my bases her- Ah! Wait I thought of something.
Abby almost cringes at this thought.
Billy Danielson - It won’t be long until I hold gold in this company. I’m biding my time because I have yet to decide which title I will claim first, but I will be claiming gold soon. However, for right now, I’m more interested to see how long Owen will last before he eats his fourth loss to me.
And just like that, Danielson grabs his carry-on bag and shoves through the interview crew. Abby stumbles a bit from the stiff shoulder she takes when he shoves past her, but she’s more concerned for the fact that she feels like she just heard some movie villain’s manifesto recited to her. She looks at her crew with absolute confusion as Billy walks into the arena.

UWL World Champion Casey Holliday has the camera on her in an empty building in Seattle. The empty building consists of a lot of sentimental value to her, clearly, as she’s looking a bit awestruck to be in what is clearly a familiar place for her. But, once she comes off of the sentimental nostalgia trip, she begins to get a little bit worried as she begins to express her thoughts.
Casey Holliday: So… Sydney and I were supposed to do something from my dad’s old wrestling school but for some reason, she’s running late. Yeah, this is where I trained to become a professional wrestler in this very building in Seattle. I learned a hell of a lot here and I wouldn’t be the champion that I am today if it wasn’t for going through the wringer that I did while I was here. I wasn’t the most popular person here while I was around. This was largely because of my youth and immaturity saying that I was going to bypass the Indy scene, which I did, but there was, of course, the whole ‘your dad runs the school, you get special treatment’ crowd too. It was here where I learned to deal with adversity… adversity such as what I’ve been dealing with in UWL as of late, particularly since I won the UWL World Championship. Last show, I beat Billy Danielson and made things a little bit easier for me as I proved that as a champion, I knew how to win by any means necessary! At the end of the day…
Voice: ANY means necessary?
Casey ends up being caught by surprise at the sudden appearance of her own father in the scene. If this wasn’t perplexing enough, she’s noticing right away that her father doesn’t appear to be happy.
Casey Holliday: Dad, what are you doing here? I was expecting Sydney.
Mr. Holliday: I told Sydney to stay home because there’s something I need to tell you. I know you won your match against Billy and all… but like THAT?
Casey Holliday: I kept kicking him out of the ring and he couldn’t get back in and…
Mr. Holliday: I don’t want to hear any excuses. You’re the UWL World Champion. WHY are you settling? How could any champion in their right mind just be satisfied with… mediocrity? I raised you and trained you to be better than that. You’re settling because AJ Knight pinning you was still stuck in your head. You weren’t wrestling that match against Billy to win, you were wrestling that match against him to not lose. I hadn’t been disappointed in anything you’ve done since you won the world title… not until that…
Casey Holliday: Settling wasn’t my intention…
Mr. Holliday: I know it wasn’t. It’s all subconscious. It’s a domino effect, Casey. Once AJ pinned you… subconsciously, your confidence dropped. That confidence in turn made you complacent to the point where you didn’t care how you got the win, you just cared that you didn’t lose. I’m worried about you. Are you sure that being a world champion and carrying a company on your shoulders well into the future is a responsibility you’re really ready for?
Casey Holliday: Of COURSE I’m ready for it! I’ve BEEN ready for it! I wouldn’t have won the Coronation Cup and won at Starrzone if I wasn’t ready for it.
Mr. Holliday: So why are you letting one person get to you this much? So Billy couldn’t get back in the ring. Don’t just stand there and wait for him, drag his ass back in there. Chase the son of a bitch if you have to. Don’t settle for weakness just because it’s ‘any means necessary’. That’s not who you are. There’s plenty of time to turn things around and I’m confident that you will. I’m confident that when it’s all said and done, you’ll pull through and you’re going to silence that piece of shit! This complacency isn’t intentional on your part, I know that. But in your next match, you’ve really got to nip it in the ass! You’ve got to make a statement. And when I turn on the television and I see you take on Jake Mason, I expect you to make that statement the way I taught you how to make a statement. Am I clear on that?
Casey is quite stunned by this whole turn of events to the point where she isn’t responding right away. But deep down, she knows a lot of what her father is saying is true to the core.
Casey Holliday: I’m making that statement this week. You’re right, I’m settling for beneath my best… and when I get Jake in that ring, I’m going to put a stop to that…
Her father doesn’t say a word in response and at this point, he turns and walks away showing at least some satisfaction in knowing he’s gotten through to her. Casey just sits there in silence for a few more moments with so much to think about before she shuts off the camera…
As the camera came up and we see Jessie Roberts sitting inside of a locker room doing up her boot on a metal steel chair. She was just a few moments away from her match against newcomer Kory Kramp. As she worked on this she looked up and saw the camera looking at her.
Jessie Roberts: You know when I told Lillth Rising several weeks ago to name her time, place and even match type for us to compete since she has claimed she was robbed when we face off previous I thought I would get a phonecall from UWL management by the next morning. Yet I have not received that call saying when it will be happening or that she even approached her. Guess that show for all her scare tactics she is the one scared of having me beat her. So the wait goes on.
Jessie finished lacing her right boot and put it on the floor. Moments later she rolled her shoulder and started to stretch out her arms.
Jessie Roberts: But there is no wait for me when it comes to tonight as I’m set to face off with a young man by the name of Kory Kramp. Now in during my research into you Mr Kramp you are someone who I can get behind. I mean small town boy trying to make it in the big world that’s something people can get behind and I’m looking forward to testing myself against you because the dreamers are the ones who have the most fight.
Jessie then switched over to stretching out her legs before she carried on talking.
Jessie Roberts: And at the end of the day the hardest fight always make the best ones because it always make you better. So Mr Kramp get ready because the Hawkeye Warrior is coming for you tonight.

A door opens to The Scope. Stepping in from the parking garage is the Queen of Punk herself, Rosie Sinn. Standing side by side with the UWL star is her six foot seven, mohawked former tag team partner, Flip Haze. The camera follows them when Abby Joseph approaches.
Abby Joseph: I heard the buzzing. Is Flip….
Rosie Sinn: He’s a special guest, nothing more.
Abby Joseph: (to Flip) So you haven’t signed a UWL contract?
Flip Haze: Nah. The Monster of Punk’s retired. Career ending shoulder surgery, ya know. I’m just here to show support to my girl, Rosie. Wasn’t that f*ckin’ punk the way she laid out Lilith Rising last week? She said BAM! Bitch go down!
Rosie Sinn: Uhmm..Flip…bud…I’m not sure you can say f*ck on this show.
Flip Haze: I can’t say f*ck?
Rosie Sinn: I don’t think so.
Flip Haze: What the…
Rosie puts her hand over his mouth.
Rosie Sinn: Sorry, we better go before he gets me fined.
Rosie pulls Flip past Abby Joseph. As she does, the camera glimpses Lilith Rising in the background witnessing that whole thing.
Abby Joseph is standing in the ring. By her side is Arch Stanton, pacing back and forth.
Abby Joseph - UWL Officials have met earlier today and have come to a decision. It is my honor to announce that The UWL United States Championship will be defended in a rare 3-Way Match at Only The Strong Survive! Reigning champion Emma Douglas will defend against Jackson Burnside and, with me now – Arch Stanton. Arch, you wanted to make a few comments?
Arch Stanton - Well, Miss Abby – I got my hands full with Rosie Sinn tonight, as you might have heard. She’s got a lesson comin’ her way, and she’s gonna learn it the hard way. We’ll see what she’s made of, what she does after a BIG fall. That might only be a matter of minutes away, but I felt inclined to come out here and make a comment on this…
The crowd boos Stanton as he looks around seriously.
Arch Stanton - It ain’t like I won’t take it, but I ain’t jumpin’ fer joy, either! I know, just like everybody knows, that I’m well suited to be wearin’ that United States Championship gold. Not like that sunuvab*tch Burnside!
Stanton takes the mic from Abby and turns toward the locker-room.
Arch Stanton - Jackson – I want you to listen to me very carefully, you stupid yella dog! You ain’t gonna make yer name offa one measly win over me. That don’t mean you get to share MY spot…
The crowd pops when Jackson Burnside suddenly bursts out from the back and storming down the ramp. The crowd reaction builds with every step toward the ring.
Arch Stanton - Good! Come on down here, you dirty b*stard! You wanna tell me some more lies…
Jackson cuts him off, climbing up onto the apron and into the ring.
Jackson Burnside - I speak for all the brothers here tonight when I say SUCH YOUR DAMN MOUTH!
The crowd pops in agreement, leaving Arch to simmer and mutter under his breath.
Jackson Burnside - You keep saying 'one time one time one time.' My mama said there's no such thing as a lucky shot, Arch. I can beat you a hundred times if I wanted to. I earned this chance, and to be frank I’m just as unhappy about sharing it with YOU! You want to call each other names or do you want to REALLY do something about it?"
Arch and Jackson bump chests and mutter back and forth. Abby bails out of the ring and a referee slides in to intervene. Suddenly, Emma Douglas hops the railing from the crowd. The audience explodes as she climbs the turnbuckles. She leaps off, catching Jackson in the back with a Double Axe-Handle smash! Jackson stumbles forward, forcing both and Arch into the corner and sandwiching the referee.
Jackson falls to his knees and Arch staggers forward – and into Discus Lariat! Emma stands over them, mic in hand.
Emma Douglas - You’re both talking like you’ve already won it – but the United States Title belongs to me! Neither one of you are worthy of a shot at me, as far as I’m concerned. I’m going to keep this title as long as I want to – and I’m not losing it to either of YOU clowns!
Arch pulls himself up with the ropes and takes a swing at Emma. More officials hit the scene and force Arch into a corner. Emma gets a few kicks before being pulled away. Jackson charges at Arch, chopping him hard across the chest. The crowd calls out “Woooo!
Arch nails Jackson with a few jabs and pushes him away. A referee approaches and Arch shoves him to the ground. Emma breaks free and charges into everyone, sending bodies all over the mat and out to the apron. Emma takes a nasty fall after Jackson shoves her to the mat. Jackson and Arch begin slugging it out with heavy blows, starting to cause some damage. Emma intervenes, ducking a punch from Arch and spraying Asian Mist at them both!
Jackson and Arch, their faces stained green, stagger toward the ropes. Arch throws blind punches at anyone comes near, catching a few officials in the process. Jackson and Emma try to fight it out, but are quickly pulled apart. Stanton continues to throw haymakers at anyone around him, finally dropping to the mat and rolling out of the ring. He grabs his towel and wipes the mist from his eyes.
Logan Acker - So THAT’s why he brings a towel to the ring!"
Cliff Morris - This has broken down quickly. Each of these competitors are involved with matches tonight – it’s a good thing order is being restored before any serious damage can be done!
Despite the blinding from the mist, Jackson and Emma continue to shout at each other as they are led away by officials.

Standing before the custom UWL interview set is the former WKPT news anchor and face of UWL interviews, Abby Joseph. Looking professionally into the camera before taking a long intake of breath to speak into her microphone.
Abby Joseph: I want to take you back to footage captured earlier today of the arrival of my next guest.
Earlier in the day
In the loading bay of ‘The Scope’ a black rolls Royce drives in slowly. Staff of the arena glance over at it whilst others move out of camera shot. The car comes to a a standstill and the chauffeur steps out, wearing a black suit and drivers cap, he steps over to the back door and opens it slowly. Stepping out of the car is Chris Crippler. Wearing a customs navy blue suit, waistcoat, a lavender shirt and pocket square, his long hair curling at the ends as he rakes his hands through it. Smiling as he takes in the atmosphere, the chauffeur pops the boot and pulls out Chris’ wrestling bag and walks over to him, he snatches the handle out of the drivers hands and begins to make his way into the arena
Abby Joseph glances to her left as Chris Crippler steps into view, wearing his black and gold wrestling robe, he gives Abby a forced smile before looking just off camera, waiting.
Abby Joseph: Let me be the first to welcome you to Universal Wrestling League. We got a snippet of you at Championship Extravaganza saying you where coming and here you are, tonight in Norfolk, Virginia. Making your in-ring debut and you’ll be facing Matt Ryker. What are you thoughts going into tonight’s match?
Chris smirks as he raises his taped right hand and presses his index finger against his lips in thought.
Chris Crippler: You know i didn’t think much of my opponent initially. A former mixed martial artist who had minimal success that decided to come into our sport, for not being able to keep it in his pants, looking to get the riches and fame that comes with our sport. I doubt he has achieved that feat just yet.
Chris chuckles to himself.
Chris Crippler: However he has done something a lot of the guys have not done. Conquered a division here in the UWL Winning the US Tag Team and becoming a two time UWL Tag Team Champion with Titus Rush. Bravo indeed. It went from wrestling another MMA come pro wrestler to competing against a three time UWL tag champion. Such an honour, right? Yet I’m sure majority of the people back here are wondering just who the heck I am. That can be answered by the Universal Wrestling Network from Championship Promotions.
Archive footage begins to play from UWL showing Chris capturing the Honor Championship then holding both Honor and UWL title in the air as duel champion before relinquishing the Honor title due to UWL ruling.
Chris Crippler: I am part of history within Championship Promotions and when Jay Jefferson came calling once more. Guess who answered that call and guess who is competing tonight with a three time tag team champion. For those of you struggling to answer that question, it’s me.
Chris points his thumbs at himself before raising his eyebrows ironically.
Chris Crippler: Matt Ryker will look to get back to winning ways, proving he is just more than a tag team competitor, but he will show why Titus was the real reason for their success and Ryker was just sat on that bandwagon lapping up the rewards. His End Game tonight would be leaving me in the ring, defeated and broken, however his game level is set the highest and his controller will be thrown against the wall in anger as he is unable to beat me. Today marks the beginning of my UWL adventure and Ryker will not stop the true original British Sensation.
Chris ignores Abby and walks past her and the camera, he glances at a nearby table that has different A4 picture cards of UWL wrestlers, Chris picks up the one of Matt Ryker and sneers at it. He drops it uncaring back on the table as another picture captures his eye. Picking it up and mouthing the nickname ‘Enforcer’ before shaking his head disapprovingly and tearing the photo up and throwing it up in the air as he continues to walk down the hallway.

The picture cuts up to the ring.
i.imgur.com/CXWzwKF.jpg
Emily Lyle - The following contest is set for one fall with a fifteen minute time limit!
The lights in the auditorium switch off as “Ultraviolence” by Cliff Lin begins to play over the PA system, as soon as the guitar rift kicks in, the spotlights goes around the audience and the stage lights illuminate as Chris Crippler steps out from behind the curtain.
Emily Lyle - From Colchester, Essex. England, weighing two hundred and forty seven pounds, Chris Crippler!!
He casually strolls down the aisle way, ignoring the fans ringside, stepping up the ring steps to the apron and walking along to the middle. He gazes out at the crowd in attendance with a look of disgust before stepping through the ropes, Chris walks over to the opposite side of the ring, adjusting his wrist tape as he presses his back against the turnbuckles. The referee checks him for foreign objects as his music fades away.
And sit down and we'd play some tunes
To whoever would listen to us
This is an old song that you'll recognize
That came from these particular times in bars and pubs
This is "Temple of the King"
As the lights fade between various shades of red and white Matt Ryker steps out. A few steps down the aisle Matt stops and hits the floor with both hands then throws them up in the air and looks up at the ceiling, pointing both fingers out together toward the ring, looking at the crowd. He throws his hair back making his way down to the ring. When Matt gets in the ring, Matt slides into the ring. Matt stands in the middle of the ring with a serious look across his face looking from side to side.
Emily Lyle - From Madison, Wisconsin, weighing two hundred pounds, Matt Ryker!!
Cliff Morris - Chris Crippler makes his debut against Matt Ryker who seems to have lost his way since he's walked away from the Phoenix.
Logan Acker - It's not the best way to try and find your way against someone the caliber of Chris Crippler who enjoys inflicting pain.
The bell sounds. Both men move from their corners slowly circling one another. Crippler looks at Ryker with a look of disgust. They lock up in a collar and elbow tie up. Crippler takes Ryker into a side headlock. He wrenches his arms around his head. Ryker sends him off into the ropes. Crippler comes off the ropes back at Ryker taking him down with a shoulder block.

He nails Ryker with a pair of punches which stun Ryker. Crippler pulls Ryker around across his back and drops him with a backbreaker. Ryker staggers, Crippler catches him with a lariat sending him down to the mat. Crippler stands on his throat choking him, he grabs the top rope pulling it back for leverage, the referee calls for a break, but Crippler keeps choking him. The referee starts his count.

He stands over him and drops down with a pointed elbow. Crippler turns on the mat grabbing him into a front facelock. He wraps his arms around his head tight, the referee checks on the hold, but Ryker doesn’t give up and he’s still around. Crippler jerks the hold tightening the grip he has around his head.
Cliff Morris – Chris Crippler tightening things up on Matt Ryker.
Logan Acker – Matt Ryker has no chance of getting out of this. I just don't see it.

He shoves him off. Ryker falls against the ropes. Crippler nails him in the back of his neck with a hard shot. He turns him around quickly planting him down with the Crippler DDT (Evenflow DDT).

The camera transitions to the back hallway of the Scope where the talent is temporarily housed. The shot zeros in on the voluptuous but lethal form of Lilith Rising, who is making her way down the hall quickly. She’s dressed in a pair of faded and ripped, low slung blue jeans paired with a red, skin tight half shirt that’s emblazoned with “Chaos is Rising” in metallic silver script. As she reaches the door, she runs a hand over her slicked back, blonde hair before entering.
Lilith Rising: I believe we have something to talk about. Do you have a minute because what I have in mind could benefit the both of us.
That’s when the camera pans out to reveal the cryptic enigma, Jake Mason. Lilith closes the door and gives him a warm smile and raised brow.
Lilith Rising: Trust me, this is gonna be fun.
Jake Mason turns his attention to the attractive woman standing behind him, but truly pays her looks no mind. His mind is focused on what happens next.
Jake Mason: But of course it is. The fun has just begun. Last week you may have been busted in the mouth, but revenge shall be at hand. I would worry about revenge on myself, but that bull just got his horns removed last week. We shall now wait and see if he tries to charge again or if he just goes back to his pen like the submissive animal he will become.
Lilith rubs her hands together as she begins to pace back and forth.
Lilith Rising: I have to give you credit, my friend, you definitely made him shit his pants last week. But I find myself thinking about how much better we would be if we… combined efforts, so to speak.
She comes to a stop as she faces Jake and rubs her jaw for a moment.
Lilith Rising: As far as revenge goes, I believe it’s going to require a dual effort tonight...Maybe on an official basis? What would you think?
Jake Mason contemplates what he has just been offered.
Jake Mason: One has to wonder why you come to me in this way. With an outfit so tight, I can see your pulse in every place it should be. Was this intended to be a motivator for your cause?
Lilith laughs throatily and shrugs her shoulders nonchalantly.
Lilith Rising: What can I say? When you’re built this damn good, might as well show it off, right? But no, there’s nothing about the way I am that’s manipulative. Satisfied?
Jake Mason: Indeed. Many women may use their sexuality to get what they desire, but you. You stand on your own two feet and take or give as necessary. It will serve you aptly in the future.
Lilith Rising: And I do a damn good job of it, I might add….most of the time, at least. But you avoided my question which makes me think I may have either insulted you or you don’t want anything to do with my suggestion.
Her nose crinkles up as she begins to pace nervously.
Lilith Rising: Shit...c’mon man, don’t make me ask Prince!
Jake Mason: But where is the fun in just saying yes? First you must tease the prey and see what they are willing to do to get your wishes met. We both know that Prince will require favors you may not be willing to give just yet. While I could get those favors by just telling you, the future says you must. So I think in lieu of playing any more games, I will just say yes. I’ll help you Lilith.
She snaps around to face him, a genuine expression of happiness plain in sight.
Lilith Rising: Really?! -
She stops as she latches on to his full statement.
Lilith Rising: What do you mean “just yet”? You know what? Never mind, I know you can’t say. So since you’re in, I think it’s time to ditch the extra ears around here and I’ll tell you what I’ve come up with.
With that, Jake Mason picks up his walking cane and points it towards the camera revealing the cattle prod is attached to the end and sparking. The camera drops to the ground as the thud of the camera hitting the ground is heard.

UWL Saturday Night comes back from commercial. We see the John Thompson and Ryland Moore wrestling graphic, and as the narrator speaks images coincide with his wording.
Narrator: "The feud between John Thompson and Ryland Moore began back on November 21st in Nashville, TN with an inadvertent meeting in the hall, where the pair had words.
Later that night both Thompson and Ryland Moore would ruin each other's UWL debuts via interference, leading to an altercation on the December 5th edition of UWL Saturday night, where Thompson challenged Moore to a match at Starrzone, which led to Ryland injuring Thompson."
The video shows Thompson being chokeslammed to the outside.
Narrator: "Upon John Thompson's return, he made it abundantly clear that things were just heating up, but Ryland Moore struck first, when earlier this month he assaulted John Thompson during an interview with Abby Joseph.
Tonight the pair at 10:00 to win their differences in a last man standing match.".
We cut to a split screen. In the left screen sits John Thompson, looking forward, staring intensely into space, humming along to the song emanating from his ear buds.
He wrings his hands together, biting his lip, the next few minutes are going to be the longest of his life.
He finally gets his hands on Ryland Moore.
He will make him pay for everything, for the assaults, for the words Raul Ramirez has spoken to him, and for trying to end his career.
On the right screen is Ryland Moore and Raul Ramirez. There is a lot more activity in that locker room. Moore paces the floor, as Hot Sauce continues to motivate him.
RR: You're going to destroy this guy once and for all. He's going to wish he never knew your name.
A menacing smile creeps over the face of The Hollywood Monster.
RR: John Thompson says he's going to hurt you, but my brother, he doesn't know what real pain is.
Ryland Moore laughs maniacally, as he looks at the camera and runs his thumb across his throat.
A message sent to John Thompson.

Emily Lyle - The following contest is a last man standing match!
After Raul Ramirez starts up his intro to introduce his giant, "Unstoppable" by E.S. Posthumus starts up and a red spotlight shines only on Ryland. The music continues with the camera looking right up at Ryland. Hot Sauce walks alongside the giant and then he climbs over the ropes.
Emily Lyle - From Hollywood, weighing four hundred and one pounds, Ryland Moore!
The arena goes dark. Simple Man begins playing over the speakers. A lone spotlight appears, and the silhouette of John Thompson stands in the middle of it arms outstretched in a V. For a few moments John Thompson continues to stand in this pose.
Emily Lyle - From Las Vegas, Nevada, weighing two hundred and twenty pounds, John Thompson!
He slowly drops his arms to the sides, then he begins walking to the ring, the spotlight following him. He enters the ring under the ropes, stands in the center posing in the V formation again. The spot light dims as the arena lights brighten. John circles the ring a few times before settling into his corner.
Cliff Morris - We're ready for our next........
John runs at Moore nailing him with repeated punches. He jerks him around slamming his shoulder into the turnbuckles. Moore stumbles from the corner. John runs at Moore nailing him with the Greetings from Vegas (Claymore Kick). Moore falls back on the mat. The referee checks on Moore. He start his count.

“Time to get Punk!” is shouted over the PA system and the crowd goes nuts. “It’s My Life” by Plasmatics plays and Rosie Sinn rips through the curtain full of energy and charisma. She runs to one side of the stage, jumping up and down and waving on the crowd. Then she goes to the other side, does the same, then sprints to the ring and slides under the bottom rope.
She jumps to a random turnbuckle, caters to the crowd, hyping them up, then jumps back to the canvas.
Rosie Sinn: Hello, Durham, North Carolina, I love ya!!
The crowd pops at the playful gimmick Rosie uses, calling them the wrong city.
Rosie Sinn: I was given this allotment of time for an interview, but ya’ll know I hate interviews. They are so impersonal. I’d much rather come out here and talk to my people in person..because…
The crowd shouts back in interaction.
Crowd: That’s punk!!
Rosie Sinn: Ya know what else is punk? When you jack a bully in the f’n jaw with a sweet pair of brass knuckles. Now we can just pray to the Rock Gods and the Wrestling Gods alike that her mouth is wired shut so we don’t have to hear anymore lame short jokes from the yeti. But I’m not out here tonight to talk about Lilith, her time will come at Only the Strong Survive. No, I’m out here to talk about my opponent.
The crowd boos at the mention of Stanton.
Rosie Sinn: Now, don’t boo. Not just yet. Because tonight, he’ll play the hero when he becomes the message to Lilith. Arch Stanton…six foot four, over 300 pounds…he’s one big MFer…but as anyone who’s followed my career knows, I’m always outsized, and there’s a reason I’m often referred to as the Giant Killer! That’s why tonight….
Rosie’s monologue is interrupted by static and feedback from a microphone. The Tron flares to life, displaying none other than Lilith Rising herself who has a “cat that ate the canary” smile on her burgundy lips. The shot is pulled tight on her face and hands, not allowing for much detail on her location to be seen.
Lilith Rising: Is this thing on? (motions to the equipment) I don’t want my dearest friend Rosie to miss a thing…
Inaudible mumbling is picked up and Lilith shifts her full focus to the camera.
Lilith Rising: Sorry for the interruption, my darling girl. I know you’ve got a match coming up but I also know you’re out there doing what you do….pandering to the unwashed masses and tooting your horn. But see, that’s where you went wrong. You made the foolish decision to go out there in the middle of that ring all by yourself, didn’t you?
Lilith gives a slight shrug as she smirks.
Lilith Rising: Now you have to ask yourself something… Did you really think I’d let your little shot with the brass knuckles go? Are you wondering why I care if you’re out there alone… by the way, aren’t you missing someone?
Rosie Sinn: Alone? I don’t need anyone to kick your ass. I figured you might need a show or two to lick your wounds, rebuild your ego…but hey, I don’t have to be alone.
Rosie goes to the ropes, sits on the middle and lifts the top.
Rosie Sinn: You can join me so I can finish what I started last week.
Lilith begins to laugh, her eyes lighting up with delight.
Lilith Rising: That’s absolutely adorable. You really think you can finish me off, don’t you? Silly girl, I wasn’t talking about joining you. I mean, I thought it would be obvious I’m not exactly in the vicinity at the moment but I obviously overestimated your intellect. I’ll make myself a little more clear…
She holds her index finger up in a “hold” gesture and steps back. The shot pans out with her movement, allowing the beaten and restrained Flip Haze tied to a chair. Lilith leans down next to him and grips his face, finally bringing her eyes back to the camera.
Lilith Rising: Now do you realize what you’re missing?
Rosie’s look goes rabid.
Rosie Sinn: This is between me and you, you psychotic yeti bitch! He has nothing to do with this. You know damn well with his injuries, he can’t even f’n defend himself!
Lilith clucks her tongue and shakes her head in mock disapproval.
Lilith Rising: Now who’s resorting to insults, hmmm? (Smirking) You call me yeti, I call you Samwise - we get the point. But here’s the thing - I’m not the one who sucker punched you with a weapon, am I? I’m not the one that brought my invalid sidekick to a wrestling show afterwards, am I, you mental midget? What happens to him is all on your hands, not mine bitch.
Lilith bends down and retrieves a heavy, metal wrench from the floor, causing Flip’s eyes to widen. She looks at the camera and blows Rosie a mocking kiss before bringing the wrench down hard on Flip’s shoulder repeatedly.
Rosie drops the mic and takes off running as camera follows. She pulls the curtain and goes backstage. As soon as Rosie gets through the curtain, she is doubled over by a cane shot to the ribs. As Rosie drops to the ground, Jake Mason comes out from the shadows, and just smiles.
Jake Mason: Oh little one. One would think you’d know it better than to try and intimidate your betters. I caught your friend, because I knew exactly where he would be. I could say that it’s because I know every action before it happens in your time. The truth though, is that you creatures are so predictable.
Rosie Sinn tries to get up, but drops back to the ground as Mason gives her another shot to the ribs with his walking cane.
Jake Mason: I wasn’t finished yet. You creatures are so predictable. It almost makes the hunt not worth having. I’m still going to hunt you down even if the sport of it is taken away. Good Night Rosie, and don’t fret. I promise you Flip won’t die tonight. It’s still a few more months until he dies by his own hand. Sleep well knowing it’s your fault.
Jake Mason gives Rosie Sinn one last shot to the ribs before he walks away.

LADIES & GENTS, THIS IS THE MOMENT YOU’VE WAITED FOR!
"The Greatest Show" begins to play throughout the arena. The lights slowly dim as the music plays while the spotlights move in sequence across the audience and back to the stage in sequence with the bear of the music.
DON’T FIGHT IT, IT’S COMING FOR YOU, RUNNING AT YA
IT’S ONLY THIS MOMENT, DON’T CARE WHAT COMES AFTER
YOUR FEVER DREAM, CAN’T YOU SEE IT GETTING CLOSER
JUST SURRENDER ‘CAUSE YOU FEEL THE FEELING TAKING OVER
IT’S FIRE, IT’S FREEDOM, IT’S FLOODING OPEN
IT’S A PREACHER IN THE PULPIT AND YOUR BLIND DEVOTION
THERE’S SOMETHING BREAKING
AT THE BRICK OF EVERY WALL IT’S HOLDING
ALL THAT YOU KNOW, SO TELL ME DO TOU WANNA GO?
Seemingly hundreds of camera flashes begin lighting up the darkened arena then suddenly the curtain is thrown back and Robb Daniels and his wife Lauren Parker emerge from behind the curtain...Robb wears a very serious look upon his face, walking down the center of the runway with his wife in tow.
WHERE IT’S COVERED IN ALL THE COLORED LIGHTS
WHERE TGE RUNAWAYS ARE RUNNING THE NIGHT
IMPOSSIBLE COMES TRUE, IT’S TAKING OVER YOU
OH, THIS IS THE GREATEST SHOW!
WE LIGHT IT UP, WE WON’T COME DOWN
AND THE SUN CAN’T STOP US NOW
WATCHING IT CONE TRUE, IT’S TAKING OVER YOU
OH, THIS IS THE GREATEST SHOW!
He stops on the apron, holding the ropes open for his wife then wiping his shoes before stepping through himself. He circles the ring, removing his sunglasses. He climbs up on the turnbuckles and looks around at the crowd, smiling and enjoying the moment. He tells the camera that he's the greatest wrestler to ever live before dropping down and retrieving two microphones from the ring announcer.
Robb Daniels - Ladies and Gentlemen. I have returned to aide my beautiful lady and together we will vanquish the Team Madness. It’s been nearly three months since Starrzone. It’s been a tumultuous journey from who I was to who I am now...
Lauren Parker - What he’s trying to say is that Robb Daniels is more than just a former three time UWL World Champion. He’s a trail blazer, a trend setter, he inspires and motivates. He creates and innovates. More importantly he believes that the show must always go on and that in this business it takes more than one star to lite up the sky...
Robb Daniels - Precisely! I may not be your UWL Champion but I am and always will be a Headliner! But things change...the sport has changed. It’s a much younger, faster and bolder persons business than it was fifteen years ago. You must realize in show business your role because if you don’t you’re name will go from the marquee to the funny papers!
“The longevity of my career speaks for itself. My success has came from being able to roll with the punches, adapt to my surroundings and evolve. As long as their is a breath of air in these lungs I will forever love the business of professional wrestling.”
Daniels paced back and forth.
Robb Daniels: It’s time to turn the page and start a new chapter of the Daniels Manifesto. It’s time to bring the family closer together but most importantly the show must go on!
THIS IS THE GREATEST SHOW!
"The Greatest Show" begins playing once again inside the arena. As Robb Daniels tossed his microphone and extends both arms turning soaking in the mixed emotions of the fans as the show goes to commercial break.

Emily Lyle - The following contest is set for one fall with a fifteen minute time limit!
"Outsider" by Veil of Maya begins playing throughout the arena. The lights dim with multiple spotlights crossing on the stage as Owen Daniels appears with a smug look on his face looking out at the fans. Daniels begins walking toward the ring. He climbs the ring stairs, walks along the apron to the far corner and stands on the middle rope leaning against the top turnbuckle with one arm in the air.
Emily Lyle - From Knoxville, Tennessee, weighing two hundred and sixteen pounds, Owen Daniels!
Daniels looks down at the camera pointing at it telling the fans watching from home just how good he is. He steps down from the ropes and enters the ring through the middle and top rope and awaits his opponent.
The crowd is buzzing when suddenly the lights go out.
GREATEST
OF
ALL
TIME
"Born for Greatness" by Papa Roach plays as the crowd buzzes, as the crowd goes nuts. The first verse plays out, causing more anticipation. As the verse comes to the end it pauses for a moment. All of the lights go out again, but then come right back on in full brightness!!!
NO WE'RE NOT NAMELESS
WE'RE NOT FACELESS
WE WERE BORN FOR GREATNESS!!!
Emily Lyle - From Chicago, Illinois weighing two hundred and forty pounds, Billy Danielson!!
Suddenly, Billy "The G.O.A.T." Danielson walks out from behind the curtain to a huge pop, as he makes his way down to the ring. He's in wrestling gear, high-fiving fans as he makes his way to the ring. He wipes his feet before going up to the apron, and into the ring. The fans continue to cheer as Danielson throws his arms in the air. He slowly backs into his corner and waits for the bell to ring.
Cliff Morris - We're ready for action. As we're about to see two athletes who are very familiar with one another face off in this one on one contest. As, Billy Danielson takes on Owen Daniels.

DURING THE BREAK...
Owen Daniels can be seen busting through gorilla and down the steps into the backstage area. He is quickly approached by Abby Joseph with a microphone in hand.
Abby Joseph - Owen. Daniels?
’Yes...”
Owen stops looking over his shoulder before slowly turning around.
’Son...If a beautiful woman asks you for a moment of your time, you should always take her up on that offer...”
Owen Daniels - What the hell do you want?
Robb Daniels - Owen, I know that I am the last person you want to talk to but I didn’t raise you to be like that. I taught you to be honorable not a sore loser...
Owen’s eyes fill with anger.
Owen Daniels - Are you kidding me? Think about that statement. You didn’t raise me. You we’re off living your dream. With your new family.
Robb removes his glasses, folds them and places them in his jacket pocket.
Robb Daniels - I may have failed you as a father but I won’t allow you to fail in this business.
Owen Daniels - I don’t need your help. I never asked for it. So why do you keep hovering over me and only showing up at the worst times possible...
Robb Daniels - You’ve got a chip the size of Texas on your shoulder and it’s hurting you. You should take that chip and use it to your advantage. You may not have asked for my help but you definitely do need it. I don’t care what you say son. We’ve had more good times than bad and I can’t change the past but I can definitely help you with your future. If you’ll allow it.../color]
Owen Daniels - I have lost four times to Billy Danielson...four times. I haven’t even been close. Maybe I shouldn’t even be here...
Robb Daniels - You may not know this but when Billiam broke into the business years ago he beat me clean. He shocked the hell out of me and even himself that night. He’s been doing this a while Owen. He is very good. For four years I’ve paid him ‘top guy’ money over in Mainstream because he is that damn good so don’t be ashamed of it. Instead learn from it. Harness all that anger you have for me inside and use it for determination.
Owen Daniels - Why are you doing this?
Robb Daniels - Because you’re nearing rock bottom and about to break. You’re a second generation wrestler and a natural in the ring. You’re going to be so much better than me. I just know it.
Owen Daniels - I just don’t understand why all of a sudden you care.
Robb Daniels - I’ve always cared Owen. I worked a very busy schedule when you were growing up because I had to. We needed the money, I wasn’t a second generation wrestler and I didn’t have the connections and opportunities that you’ve had...
Owen Daniels - Nobody has handed me anything...
Robb Daniels - Sure you didn’t. See you might think I’m following you around but who trained at my wrestling school in Seattle? Who got there pro debut match in my wrestling promotion? Who signed their first real pro deal in a company with their fathers name all over the history books? You’ve taken every opportunity and knocked it out of the park. So what if you can’t get over the hump with Billy Danielson. Eventually, you will. And when you do that win will be much sweeter than any meaningless series of wins in a couple months.
“Take some time. Think about it. I want to mentor you. Seriously, think about it. And remember no matter what you decide that everything changes right here, tonight. Your future is bright and it’s up to you on what you do with it. Make smart choices son...”
Robb Daniels turns and walks outside of the frame turning the corner of the hallway and out of sight. The camera comes in close on the profile of Owen Daniels as the show returns from commercial break.
Cliff Morris - Fan's let's join Abby Joseph in the locker room area.
Backstage Abby Joseph is standing with Matt Ryker who has a towel around his neck and looks upset.
Abby Joseph - Matt Ryker you asked for this time to get something off your chest.
Matt looks around clearing his throat, pushing his hair back as the sweat falls off his hair.
Matt Ryker - You know I thought getting rid of being a team with Titus would help my career.
Matt shakes his head.
Matt Ryker - I thought aliening myself with the Phoenix would help my career.
Matt shakes his head.
Matt Ryker - My career is going nowhere. I can't catch a break. I came here to Championship Promotions with the idea of making it big and heading to the top. That's not happened. I don't know what else to do.
Matt walks off as Abby stands looking confused.
Ryan and AJ rise up off the mat. AJ stumbles back. Ryan runs at him for a big boot but AJ ducks and Ryan clocks the referee. He falls facedown on the mat.
Cliff Morris - The referee is down!.
Ryan stands back looking around. As he's looking around in shock. Jake Mason comes down to the ring, getting on the ring apron. Ryan sees him and comes at him and gets hit in the side of his neck with a cattle prod.
Cliff Morris - Jake Mason just hit Ryan Samuels with what appeared to be a electric cattle prod.
Logan Acker - I thought I smelled the smell of fresh meat burnt.
AJ looks on as Ryan flops around grabbing at his neck and riving in pain. Ryan staggers around. AJ grabs him and plants him with a implant DDT. He pushes him over covering him, a second referee slides in counting.

The picture cuts to the announce desk, where we see Cliff Morris and Logan Acker, ready for action.
i.imgur.com/QKBIWbJ.jpg
Cliff Morris - Fans welcome to UWL Saturday Night and we are Championship Promotions home of the Universal Wrestling League. Fan, you just saw the heinous attack at the hands of Jack Mason on Ryan Samuel at Championship Extravaganza on, February 13th.
i.imgur.com/QKBIWbJ.jpg
Logan Acker - You can almost still smell the burning smell in the air.
Cliff Morris - Oh would you. Fans, we have a loaded night of action. Tonight Jack Mason will be in tonight's main event taking on UWL World Champion Casey Holliday in the main event. We'll also have two debuts tonight. Chris Crippler will debut taking on, Matt Ryker. We will also see the debut of Kory Kramp.
Logan Acker - We both know what Chris Crippler is capable of. All of the fans here in Championship Promotions and all of UWL will find out as well.
Cliff Morris - Before their encounter at Only the Strong Survive on, March 20th for the United States Tag Team Championship, Azalo of the Herkmen takes on Dayna Grace of Euphoric. These two will do battle in a taped fist match. Fans let's not waste another second let's up to the ring and kick off tonight's action. Before we got to the ring let's hear these prerecorded comments.
BACKSTAGE...
Dayna Grace along with her tag team partner Caroline Clarke are seen walking down a long hallway. They are approached by Abby Joseph while cutting through the interview area.
Abby Joseph - Ladies. Can I have a word?
Dayna Grace - Sure. What’s up Abs...?
Abby Joseph - It’s no secret that last weekend you had an eventful night over in Mainstream Wrestling. It started out with Children of the Moon making an untimely appearance during the triple threat match between you Dayna, Chris Madison and Emma Douglas in a semi-final match for the United States Grand Prix.
Caroline Clarke - But we got our revenge when Julie Miri faced off against JC Keeton later that night which eventually led to an impromptu Tag Team Championship match.
Clarke wearing denim jeans, a sleeveless blouse and her Mainstream Wrestling Tag Team Championship title belt around her waist while supporting her Euphoric tag team partner Dayna Grace in singles action tonight.
Abby Joseph - You would go on to defeat Children of the Moon in a highly contested bout making headlines as a two time Mainstream Wrestling Tag Team Champions. Meanwhile here you are tonight Dayna, facing off against Azalo of the Herkmen.
Dayna Grace removes the Mainstream Wrestling Tag Team Championship title belt from around her waist and tosses it across her shoulder rubbing her fingers across the front faceplate of the belt.
Dayna Grace - Azalo and Nizbel seem to believe they have one over on Euphoric but in all actuality it was Nizbel who had his foot on the rope for leverage cheating to defeat Caroline at Championship Extravaganza.
Caroline Clarke - He knows he did it and he did it out of desperation. Because deep down he knew he couldn’t beat me otherwise.
Dayna Grace - Tonight we settle the score. Then after that we want a shot at those UWL United States Tag Team Championships!
Dayna Grace storms past Abby Joseph with Caroline Clarke following closely behind her.
Abby Joseph - Up next we’ll see Dayna Grace of Euphoric challenge Azalo of the Herkmen to kickoff UWL Saturday Night!

The picture cuts up to the ring.
i.imgur.com/CXWzwKF.jpg
Emily Lyle - The following contest is a taped fist match set for one fall with a fifteen minute time limit!
“Savage” by Megan Thee Stallion begins to play throughout the arena as the curtain opens it’s Caroline Clarke and Dayna Grace whom step out onto the stage slowly with the curtain closing behind them. Both ladies smile and wave at the fans along the aisle while making their way down to the ring.

Azalo nails her with repeated punches landing flush into her forehead as she lays against the guardrail. Azalo adjust the tape on his hands. He goes to grab, Grace. She nails him with a punch to the stomach stunning him. Grace grabs Azalo slamming his face off the top of the guardrail. He stumbles back down the aisle. Grace runs at him jumping on his back. She starts clawing at his eyes with both hands digging into his eyes.
Cliff Morris - Dayna Grace is trying to tear Azalo's eyes out!
Logan Acker - How is this fair? This referee is doing nothing to stop this sort of behavior.
Azalo gets free and stumbles down the aisle toward the ring. Grace runs up behind him pushing him into the ring apron. Azalo slams off the ring apron falling to the floor. Azalo lays on the floor. Grace gets up onto the ring apron. She leaps off landing down onto Azalo with a jumping fist drop. Grace rises up and throws her hair back and looks out at the crowd.
Cliff Morris - Dayna Grace looking full of confidence!
Logan Acker - Dayna Grace better start worrying about this match and not showboating for these people.

Azalo hits against the ropes. Grace goes up for a dropkick. Azalo holds the ropes as Grace falls straight down onto the mat on her back. Azalo runs at her kicking her with a hard kick to her side.

[ This video was previously recorded. ]
There was a camera set up In the locker room that belonged to Alexandria Monroe and Echo Layne also known as Team Madness. The camera was on you could see that the locker room was decorated with purple and pink balloons and streamers. There's also cupcakes and every kind of sweets that they liked sitting on the table.
"Ladies and gentlemen, CLAP for your NEW UWL Tag Team champions, "Team Madness!!!"
The male voice that introduced Team Madness wasn't visible on camera. People would find out who he was soon. Alex and Echo would step into the view of the camera. They had their shiny new tag titles over their shoulder. Alex and Echo had a tiara on their heads. They both would smile as they stood in front of the camera.
ECHO LAYNE - WE DID IT. We beat everyone that stood in our way of our dream.
ALEX MONROE - I mean we did tell them Echo. We told them every single day that we were going to win the tag titles. Now look at us we have shiney new titles. Team Madness ARE the Tag Team Champions.
Echo and Alex would look at each other and smile. They accomplished their goal and they are the tag team champions together.
ECHO LAYNE - This is the best feeling in the world. We went out there and did what we do best. Cause MADNESS...
ALEX MONROE - And.. WIN. As much as we want to sit here and gloat. Unfortunately we have a 6 man tag match to get ready for. I hate teaming with people we don't know. How can we trust them?
Team madness is teaming with James Edwards. Alex had googled him to see what he'd done. He has a nice list of accomplishments. Their match is against AJ Knight, Emma Douglas and Kalidah. Team Madness knew about AJ Knight and he was good. His tag partners are also good.
ECHO LAYNE - I have faith that James is going to come through for us.
ALEX MONROE - I hope you're right. We should have gone and checked James out.
Echo smirks.
ECHO LAYNE - We're the Tag Team Champions Alex. This match isn't going to stop us from shining and doing what we do best. Yeah, AJ Knight is like a boss in the ring but we can take him, even if he destroyed me before.
ALEX MONROE - Emma Douglas is a freaking beast. And Kalidah wears a cool mask….. you know what we are not going to think that way. Nope. Happy thoughts. Winning thoughts.
ECHO LAYNE - So UWL Universe as much as we would like to stay on Live all day. We have a match to get ready for.
ALEX MONROE - OH! Let's go find James and have a little chat with him about our tag match. I want to make sure we are on the same page.
Team Madness would wave to the camera before the screen went black…...
We go now to a previously recorded promo from earlier in the night. There we open out in the parking lot, where Billy Danielson is just arriving at the arena. He pulls his back out of the trunk of his car and makes his way through the parking lot. However, he only gets a hand full of steps before getting mobbed by Abby Joseph and her interview crew. Danielson looks absolutely disgusted as they approach him, but Abby just wants to get a quick word in with the self-acclaimed “Greatest of All Time”.
Abby Joseph - Mr. Danielson, can I get a word?
Billy stops in his tracks as Joseph looks at him with hope that a heel wasn’t going to blow her off. Danielson sighs and talks to the lowly interviewer.
Billy Danielson - It doesn’t seem like I have much of a choice, do I?
A groan comes from “The Franchise” as Abby smiles and starts to initiate the interview.
Abby Joseph - Mr. Danielson, about your match a couple of weeks ago-
Billy Danielson - Let me cut you off right there…
Danielson places a finger on the lips of Abby to quiet her.
Billy Danielson - So many people clamor and scream that Casey Holliday is the top wrestler in this company. So many people believe that because she holds the world title, that means she is something more than she truly is. What I did at Championship Extravaganze was prove that Casey is weak and that I truly am operating at a level that not even our World Champion can keep up with.
Abby tries to ask a follow-up question, but Billy has begun monologuing, and we all know how heels like to monolgue.
Billy Danielson - If you watch that match back, you can see the fear and desperation in Casey’s eyes after I pinned her. It’s the same fear and desperation James Edwards had when he begged me for a rematch. It’s the kind of fear and desperation that celebrities, businesspeople, and politicians give off when they get caught being the subpar humans that they are. It’s the innate survival tactic to save face so that people like you don’t realize the cracks in their proverbial armor.
He pauses for a moment, and again Abby Joseph tries to speak, but Billy cuts hers off.
Billy Danielson - And I know what you’re going to ask me. “But Mr. Danielson, you lost both of those respective matches”, and to that, I ask you… did I?
Abby joseph looks at Danielson with confusion.
Billy Danielson - You see, two weeks ago, I talked about how even when I was on a business-related hiatus, I was still held in better standings than most of the self-proclaimed workhorses in this company. I was gone, and people made jokes. They called me Billy “The Ghost”, because I had vanished without a trace… BUT WHERE ARE THEY NOW? I came back and I insulted the very legacy this company stands upon, and what happened? James Edwards comes crying to me for another match because I abused him, and he had to go and come up with a stipulation that put him in the driver seat because he couldn’t beat me in a normal wrestling match.
He scoffs
Billy Danielson - Then after I left him in the dust, I instantly get awarded with not one, but two matches against our World Champion because I questioned her abilities and said she didn’t deserve it, and I did the exact same thing to Casey as I did Jimmy. I’ll even go so far as to say, despite her hands getting raised both times, I stood taller because of it. She needed help to beat me the first time, and the second time she’d rather keep me away from the ring rather than get embarrassed for a second pin.
He looks down on Abby with a smirk, and she looks almost concerned for her safety as he places a hand on her shoulder.
Billy Danielson - Now tell me, Abigail, does any of that sound like a loss to you?
Abby opens her mouth, but Danielson just keeps cutting her off.
Billy Danielson - Of course it does, because you’re still operating on that small brain scale the rest of this company is using. These people cheer the names of cowards, and rain praises upon the mundane. They glorify their heroes, but those names never last. They fall victim to the very game they swear to uphold, and when the going gets tough, they end up betraying their morals for something better anyways.
That smirk grows to a near-psychotic grin on his face.
Billy Danielson - People like AJ Knight and myself though, we last. We’re the ones who walk into companies and tear down your icons before your very eyes. We breath new life into the competition because we change the way the game is played, and we begin to expose just how fearful and desperate a roster can be.
Billy pauses for a moment and Abby Joseph just stares at him. Danielson waves his hand, signaling her to hurry up with her next question. She quickly utters out
Abby Joseph - But what does any of that have to do with yo-
Danielson cuts her off again.
Billy Danielson - What does any of this have to do with my match tonight? Well I’m glad you asked, Abigail…
Another cocky smirk
Billy Danielson - It doesn’t. This whole spiel is for me to break down the fact that I, and a select few in this company, are on a level that not even Caleb Hart could reach in his prime. I am the next step in the evolutionary chain for professional wrestling, so guys like Owen Daniels, the son of a man I humiliate on a daily basis, mean nothing to me.
Abby looks at Danielson, just completely in awe of how narcissistic he is.
Billy Danielson - I’ve beaten Owen three out of three times, and he swears it’s the greatest experience in the ring that he has ever had every single time. He claims that his hatred for me brings him to another level of competitiveness he has yet to see in any other match, but for me… he’s just another Daniels to humiliate.
A final boss-ian chuckle comes from Danielson, as he looks at the camera.
Billy Danielson - And I know there is still some of you that hope that this little blind squirrel will find his nut today and finally beat me, but that’s not how this works. I’m going to do the same thing to Owen as I have done to Casey and James. I’m going to abuse him, and proe just how fearful and desperate he is too… only difference is, Owen isn’t on Holliday and Edwards’ levels either. So who knows… this might be the last time we see Owen Daniels in professional wrestling in general?
Danielson looks at Abby Joseph, but she doesn’t seem to be as excited for the possible end of Owen Daniels’ career as Billy is. He just shrugs and looks at her.
Billy Danielson - Though I have a feeling we won’t be so lucky.
Billy signals for Abby to continue, but she’s just kind of dumbfounded. Billy Danielson is very obviously beyond just egotistical… he may honestly believe he is God’s Gift to Wrestling. Abby sheepishly mutters out a few words.
Abby Joseph - An-y last words???
Billy takes a second to think up any.
Billy Danielson - No, I think I’ve covered all of my bases her- Ah! Wait I thought of something.
Abby almost cringes at this thought.
Billy Danielson - It won’t be long until I hold gold in this company. I’m biding my time because I have yet to decide which title I will claim first, but I will be claiming gold soon. However, for right now, I’m more interested to see how long Owen will last before he eats his fourth loss to me.
And just like that, Danielson grabs his carry-on bag and shoves through the interview crew. Abby stumbles a bit from the stiff shoulder she takes when he shoves past her, but she’s more concerned for the fact that she feels like she just heard some movie villain’s manifesto recited to her. She looks at her crew with absolute confusion as Billy walks into the arena.

UWL World Champion Casey Holliday has the camera on her in an empty building in Seattle. The empty building consists of a lot of sentimental value to her, clearly, as she’s looking a bit awestruck to be in what is clearly a familiar place for her. But, once she comes off of the sentimental nostalgia trip, she begins to get a little bit worried as she begins to express her thoughts.
Casey Holliday: So… Sydney and I were supposed to do something from my dad’s old wrestling school but for some reason, she’s running late. Yeah, this is where I trained to become a professional wrestler in this very building in Seattle. I learned a hell of a lot here and I wouldn’t be the champion that I am today if it wasn’t for going through the wringer that I did while I was here. I wasn’t the most popular person here while I was around. This was largely because of my youth and immaturity saying that I was going to bypass the Indy scene, which I did, but there was, of course, the whole ‘your dad runs the school, you get special treatment’ crowd too. It was here where I learned to deal with adversity… adversity such as what I’ve been dealing with in UWL as of late, particularly since I won the UWL World Championship. Last show, I beat Billy Danielson and made things a little bit easier for me as I proved that as a champion, I knew how to win by any means necessary! At the end of the day…
Voice: ANY means necessary?
Casey ends up being caught by surprise at the sudden appearance of her own father in the scene. If this wasn’t perplexing enough, she’s noticing right away that her father doesn’t appear to be happy.
Casey Holliday: Dad, what are you doing here? I was expecting Sydney.
Mr. Holliday: I told Sydney to stay home because there’s something I need to tell you. I know you won your match against Billy and all… but like THAT?
Casey Holliday: I kept kicking him out of the ring and he couldn’t get back in and…
Mr. Holliday: I don’t want to hear any excuses. You’re the UWL World Champion. WHY are you settling? How could any champion in their right mind just be satisfied with… mediocrity? I raised you and trained you to be better than that. You’re settling because AJ Knight pinning you was still stuck in your head. You weren’t wrestling that match against Billy to win, you were wrestling that match against him to not lose. I hadn’t been disappointed in anything you’ve done since you won the world title… not until that…
Casey Holliday: Settling wasn’t my intention…
Mr. Holliday: I know it wasn’t. It’s all subconscious. It’s a domino effect, Casey. Once AJ pinned you… subconsciously, your confidence dropped. That confidence in turn made you complacent to the point where you didn’t care how you got the win, you just cared that you didn’t lose. I’m worried about you. Are you sure that being a world champion and carrying a company on your shoulders well into the future is a responsibility you’re really ready for?
Casey Holliday: Of COURSE I’m ready for it! I’ve BEEN ready for it! I wouldn’t have won the Coronation Cup and won at Starrzone if I wasn’t ready for it.
Mr. Holliday: So why are you letting one person get to you this much? So Billy couldn’t get back in the ring. Don’t just stand there and wait for him, drag his ass back in there. Chase the son of a bitch if you have to. Don’t settle for weakness just because it’s ‘any means necessary’. That’s not who you are. There’s plenty of time to turn things around and I’m confident that you will. I’m confident that when it’s all said and done, you’ll pull through and you’re going to silence that piece of shit! This complacency isn’t intentional on your part, I know that. But in your next match, you’ve really got to nip it in the ass! You’ve got to make a statement. And when I turn on the television and I see you take on Jake Mason, I expect you to make that statement the way I taught you how to make a statement. Am I clear on that?
Casey is quite stunned by this whole turn of events to the point where she isn’t responding right away. But deep down, she knows a lot of what her father is saying is true to the core.
Casey Holliday: I’m making that statement this week. You’re right, I’m settling for beneath my best… and when I get Jake in that ring, I’m going to put a stop to that…
Her father doesn’t say a word in response and at this point, he turns and walks away showing at least some satisfaction in knowing he’s gotten through to her. Casey just sits there in silence for a few more moments with so much to think about before she shuts off the camera…
As the camera came up and we see Jessie Roberts sitting inside of a locker room doing up her boot on a metal steel chair. She was just a few moments away from her match against newcomer Kory Kramp. As she worked on this she looked up and saw the camera looking at her.
Jessie Roberts: You know when I told Lillth Rising several weeks ago to name her time, place and even match type for us to compete since she has claimed she was robbed when we face off previous I thought I would get a phonecall from UWL management by the next morning. Yet I have not received that call saying when it will be happening or that she even approached her. Guess that show for all her scare tactics she is the one scared of having me beat her. So the wait goes on.
Jessie finished lacing her right boot and put it on the floor. Moments later she rolled her shoulder and started to stretch out her arms.
Jessie Roberts: But there is no wait for me when it comes to tonight as I’m set to face off with a young man by the name of Kory Kramp. Now in during my research into you Mr Kramp you are someone who I can get behind. I mean small town boy trying to make it in the big world that’s something people can get behind and I’m looking forward to testing myself against you because the dreamers are the ones who have the most fight.
Jessie then switched over to stretching out her legs before she carried on talking.
Jessie Roberts: And at the end of the day the hardest fight always make the best ones because it always make you better. So Mr Kramp get ready because the Hawkeye Warrior is coming for you tonight.

The picture cuts up to the ring.

Emily Lyle - The following contest is set for one fall with a fifteen minute time limit!
"Human Fly" by The Cramps hits through out the building. Stepping out in front of the crowd is Kory Kramp.
Emily Lyle - From Boring, Oregon, weighing one hundred and forty four pounds, Kory Kramp!

A door opens to The Scope. Stepping in from the parking garage is the Queen of Punk herself, Rosie Sinn. Standing side by side with the UWL star is her six foot seven, mohawked former tag team partner, Flip Haze. The camera follows them when Abby Joseph approaches.
Abby Joseph: I heard the buzzing. Is Flip….
Rosie Sinn: He’s a special guest, nothing more.
Abby Joseph: (to Flip) So you haven’t signed a UWL contract?
Flip Haze: Nah. The Monster of Punk’s retired. Career ending shoulder surgery, ya know. I’m just here to show support to my girl, Rosie. Wasn’t that f*ckin’ punk the way she laid out Lilith Rising last week? She said BAM! Bitch go down!
Rosie Sinn: Uhmm..Flip…bud…I’m not sure you can say f*ck on this show.
Flip Haze: I can’t say f*ck?
Rosie Sinn: I don’t think so.
Flip Haze: What the…
Rosie puts her hand over his mouth.
Rosie Sinn: Sorry, we better go before he gets me fined.
Rosie pulls Flip past Abby Joseph. As she does, the camera glimpses Lilith Rising in the background witnessing that whole thing.
Abby Joseph is standing in the ring. By her side is Arch Stanton, pacing back and forth.
Abby Joseph - UWL Officials have met earlier today and have come to a decision. It is my honor to announce that The UWL United States Championship will be defended in a rare 3-Way Match at Only The Strong Survive! Reigning champion Emma Douglas will defend against Jackson Burnside and, with me now – Arch Stanton. Arch, you wanted to make a few comments?
Arch Stanton - Well, Miss Abby – I got my hands full with Rosie Sinn tonight, as you might have heard. She’s got a lesson comin’ her way, and she’s gonna learn it the hard way. We’ll see what she’s made of, what she does after a BIG fall. That might only be a matter of minutes away, but I felt inclined to come out here and make a comment on this…
The crowd boos Stanton as he looks around seriously.
Arch Stanton - It ain’t like I won’t take it, but I ain’t jumpin’ fer joy, either! I know, just like everybody knows, that I’m well suited to be wearin’ that United States Championship gold. Not like that sunuvab*tch Burnside!
Stanton takes the mic from Abby and turns toward the locker-room.
Arch Stanton - Jackson – I want you to listen to me very carefully, you stupid yella dog! You ain’t gonna make yer name offa one measly win over me. That don’t mean you get to share MY spot…
The crowd pops when Jackson Burnside suddenly bursts out from the back and storming down the ramp. The crowd reaction builds with every step toward the ring.
Arch Stanton - Good! Come on down here, you dirty b*stard! You wanna tell me some more lies…
Jackson cuts him off, climbing up onto the apron and into the ring.
Jackson Burnside - I speak for all the brothers here tonight when I say SUCH YOUR DAMN MOUTH!
The crowd pops in agreement, leaving Arch to simmer and mutter under his breath.
Jackson Burnside - You keep saying 'one time one time one time.' My mama said there's no such thing as a lucky shot, Arch. I can beat you a hundred times if I wanted to. I earned this chance, and to be frank I’m just as unhappy about sharing it with YOU! You want to call each other names or do you want to REALLY do something about it?"
Arch and Jackson bump chests and mutter back and forth. Abby bails out of the ring and a referee slides in to intervene. Suddenly, Emma Douglas hops the railing from the crowd. The audience explodes as she climbs the turnbuckles. She leaps off, catching Jackson in the back with a Double Axe-Handle smash! Jackson stumbles forward, forcing both and Arch into the corner and sandwiching the referee.
Jackson falls to his knees and Arch staggers forward – and into Discus Lariat! Emma stands over them, mic in hand.
Emma Douglas - You’re both talking like you’ve already won it – but the United States Title belongs to me! Neither one of you are worthy of a shot at me, as far as I’m concerned. I’m going to keep this title as long as I want to – and I’m not losing it to either of YOU clowns!
Arch pulls himself up with the ropes and takes a swing at Emma. More officials hit the scene and force Arch into a corner. Emma gets a few kicks before being pulled away. Jackson charges at Arch, chopping him hard across the chest. The crowd calls out “Woooo!
Arch nails Jackson with a few jabs and pushes him away. A referee approaches and Arch shoves him to the ground. Emma breaks free and charges into everyone, sending bodies all over the mat and out to the apron. Emma takes a nasty fall after Jackson shoves her to the mat. Jackson and Arch begin slugging it out with heavy blows, starting to cause some damage. Emma intervenes, ducking a punch from Arch and spraying Asian Mist at them both!
Jackson and Arch, their faces stained green, stagger toward the ropes. Arch throws blind punches at anyone comes near, catching a few officials in the process. Jackson and Emma try to fight it out, but are quickly pulled apart. Stanton continues to throw haymakers at anyone around him, finally dropping to the mat and rolling out of the ring. He grabs his towel and wipes the mist from his eyes.
Logan Acker - So THAT’s why he brings a towel to the ring!"
Cliff Morris - This has broken down quickly. Each of these competitors are involved with matches tonight – it’s a good thing order is being restored before any serious damage can be done!
Despite the blinding from the mist, Jackson and Emma continue to shout at each other as they are led away by officials.

Standing before the custom UWL interview set is the former WKPT news anchor and face of UWL interviews, Abby Joseph. Looking professionally into the camera before taking a long intake of breath to speak into her microphone.
Abby Joseph: I want to take you back to footage captured earlier today of the arrival of my next guest.
Earlier in the day
In the loading bay of ‘The Scope’ a black rolls Royce drives in slowly. Staff of the arena glance over at it whilst others move out of camera shot. The car comes to a a standstill and the chauffeur steps out, wearing a black suit and drivers cap, he steps over to the back door and opens it slowly. Stepping out of the car is Chris Crippler. Wearing a customs navy blue suit, waistcoat, a lavender shirt and pocket square, his long hair curling at the ends as he rakes his hands through it. Smiling as he takes in the atmosphere, the chauffeur pops the boot and pulls out Chris’ wrestling bag and walks over to him, he snatches the handle out of the drivers hands and begins to make his way into the arena
Abby Joseph glances to her left as Chris Crippler steps into view, wearing his black and gold wrestling robe, he gives Abby a forced smile before looking just off camera, waiting.
Abby Joseph: Let me be the first to welcome you to Universal Wrestling League. We got a snippet of you at Championship Extravaganza saying you where coming and here you are, tonight in Norfolk, Virginia. Making your in-ring debut and you’ll be facing Matt Ryker. What are you thoughts going into tonight’s match?
Chris smirks as he raises his taped right hand and presses his index finger against his lips in thought.
Chris Crippler: You know i didn’t think much of my opponent initially. A former mixed martial artist who had minimal success that decided to come into our sport, for not being able to keep it in his pants, looking to get the riches and fame that comes with our sport. I doubt he has achieved that feat just yet.
Chris chuckles to himself.
Chris Crippler: However he has done something a lot of the guys have not done. Conquered a division here in the UWL Winning the US Tag Team and becoming a two time UWL Tag Team Champion with Titus Rush. Bravo indeed. It went from wrestling another MMA come pro wrestler to competing against a three time UWL tag champion. Such an honour, right? Yet I’m sure majority of the people back here are wondering just who the heck I am. That can be answered by the Universal Wrestling Network from Championship Promotions.
Archive footage begins to play from UWL showing Chris capturing the Honor Championship then holding both Honor and UWL title in the air as duel champion before relinquishing the Honor title due to UWL ruling.
Chris Crippler: I am part of history within Championship Promotions and when Jay Jefferson came calling once more. Guess who answered that call and guess who is competing tonight with a three time tag team champion. For those of you struggling to answer that question, it’s me.
Chris points his thumbs at himself before raising his eyebrows ironically.
Chris Crippler: Matt Ryker will look to get back to winning ways, proving he is just more than a tag team competitor, but he will show why Titus was the real reason for their success and Ryker was just sat on that bandwagon lapping up the rewards. His End Game tonight would be leaving me in the ring, defeated and broken, however his game level is set the highest and his controller will be thrown against the wall in anger as he is unable to beat me. Today marks the beginning of my UWL adventure and Ryker will not stop the true original British Sensation.
Chris ignores Abby and walks past her and the camera, he glances at a nearby table that has different A4 picture cards of UWL wrestlers, Chris picks up the one of Matt Ryker and sneers at it. He drops it uncaring back on the table as another picture captures his eye. Picking it up and mouthing the nickname ‘Enforcer’ before shaking his head disapprovingly and tearing the photo up and throwing it up in the air as he continues to walk down the hallway.

The picture cuts up to the ring.
i.imgur.com/CXWzwKF.jpg
Emily Lyle - The following contest is set for one fall with a fifteen minute time limit!
The lights in the auditorium switch off as “Ultraviolence” by Cliff Lin begins to play over the PA system, as soon as the guitar rift kicks in, the spotlights goes around the audience and the stage lights illuminate as Chris Crippler steps out from behind the curtain.
Emily Lyle - From Colchester, Essex. England, weighing two hundred and forty seven pounds, Chris Crippler!!
He casually strolls down the aisle way, ignoring the fans ringside, stepping up the ring steps to the apron and walking along to the middle. He gazes out at the crowd in attendance with a look of disgust before stepping through the ropes, Chris walks over to the opposite side of the ring, adjusting his wrist tape as he presses his back against the turnbuckles. The referee checks him for foreign objects as his music fades away.
And sit down and we'd play some tunes
To whoever would listen to us
This is an old song that you'll recognize
That came from these particular times in bars and pubs
This is "Temple of the King"
As the lights fade between various shades of red and white Matt Ryker steps out. A few steps down the aisle Matt stops and hits the floor with both hands then throws them up in the air and looks up at the ceiling, pointing both fingers out together toward the ring, looking at the crowd. He throws his hair back making his way down to the ring. When Matt gets in the ring, Matt slides into the ring. Matt stands in the middle of the ring with a serious look across his face looking from side to side.
Emily Lyle - From Madison, Wisconsin, weighing two hundred pounds, Matt Ryker!!
Cliff Morris - Chris Crippler makes his debut against Matt Ryker who seems to have lost his way since he's walked away from the Phoenix.
Logan Acker - It's not the best way to try and find your way against someone the caliber of Chris Crippler who enjoys inflicting pain.
The bell sounds. Both men move from their corners slowly circling one another. Crippler looks at Ryker with a look of disgust. They lock up in a collar and elbow tie up. Crippler takes Ryker into a side headlock. He wrenches his arms around his head. Ryker sends him off into the ropes. Crippler comes off the ropes back at Ryker taking him down with a shoulder block.

He stands over him and drops down with a pointed elbow. Crippler turns on the mat grabbing him into a front facelock. He wraps his arms around his head tight, the referee checks on the hold, but Ryker doesn’t give up and he’s still around. Crippler jerks the hold tightening the grip he has around his head.
Cliff Morris – Chris Crippler tightening things up on Matt Ryker.

The camera transitions to the back hallway of the Scope where the talent is temporarily housed. The shot zeros in on the voluptuous but lethal form of Lilith Rising, who is making her way down the hall quickly. She’s dressed in a pair of faded and ripped, low slung blue jeans paired with a red, skin tight half shirt that’s emblazoned with “Chaos is Rising” in metallic silver script. As she reaches the door, she runs a hand over her slicked back, blonde hair before entering.
Lilith Rising: I believe we have something to talk about. Do you have a minute because what I have in mind could benefit the both of us.
That’s when the camera pans out to reveal the cryptic enigma, Jake Mason. Lilith closes the door and gives him a warm smile and raised brow.
Lilith Rising: Trust me, this is gonna be fun.
Jake Mason turns his attention to the attractive woman standing behind him, but truly pays her looks no mind. His mind is focused on what happens next.
Jake Mason: But of course it is. The fun has just begun. Last week you may have been busted in the mouth, but revenge shall be at hand. I would worry about revenge on myself, but that bull just got his horns removed last week. We shall now wait and see if he tries to charge again or if he just goes back to his pen like the submissive animal he will become.
Lilith rubs her hands together as she begins to pace back and forth.
Lilith Rising: I have to give you credit, my friend, you definitely made him shit his pants last week. But I find myself thinking about how much better we would be if we… combined efforts, so to speak.
She comes to a stop as she faces Jake and rubs her jaw for a moment.
Lilith Rising: As far as revenge goes, I believe it’s going to require a dual effort tonight...Maybe on an official basis? What would you think?
Jake Mason contemplates what he has just been offered.
Jake Mason: One has to wonder why you come to me in this way. With an outfit so tight, I can see your pulse in every place it should be. Was this intended to be a motivator for your cause?
Lilith laughs throatily and shrugs her shoulders nonchalantly.
Lilith Rising: What can I say? When you’re built this damn good, might as well show it off, right? But no, there’s nothing about the way I am that’s manipulative. Satisfied?
Jake Mason: Indeed. Many women may use their sexuality to get what they desire, but you. You stand on your own two feet and take or give as necessary. It will serve you aptly in the future.
Lilith Rising: And I do a damn good job of it, I might add….most of the time, at least. But you avoided my question which makes me think I may have either insulted you or you don’t want anything to do with my suggestion.
Her nose crinkles up as she begins to pace nervously.
Lilith Rising: Shit...c’mon man, don’t make me ask Prince!
Jake Mason: But where is the fun in just saying yes? First you must tease the prey and see what they are willing to do to get your wishes met. We both know that Prince will require favors you may not be willing to give just yet. While I could get those favors by just telling you, the future says you must. So I think in lieu of playing any more games, I will just say yes. I’ll help you Lilith.
She snaps around to face him, a genuine expression of happiness plain in sight.
Lilith Rising: Really?! -
She stops as she latches on to his full statement.
Lilith Rising: What do you mean “just yet”? You know what? Never mind, I know you can’t say. So since you’re in, I think it’s time to ditch the extra ears around here and I’ll tell you what I’ve come up with.
With that, Jake Mason picks up his walking cane and points it towards the camera revealing the cattle prod is attached to the end and sparking. The camera drops to the ground as the thud of the camera hitting the ground is heard.

UWL Saturday Night comes back from commercial. We see the John Thompson and Ryland Moore wrestling graphic, and as the narrator speaks images coincide with his wording.
Narrator: "The feud between John Thompson and Ryland Moore began back on November 21st in Nashville, TN with an inadvertent meeting in the hall, where the pair had words.
Later that night both Thompson and Ryland Moore would ruin each other's UWL debuts via interference, leading to an altercation on the December 5th edition of UWL Saturday night, where Thompson challenged Moore to a match at Starrzone, which led to Ryland injuring Thompson."
The video shows Thompson being chokeslammed to the outside.
Narrator: "Upon John Thompson's return, he made it abundantly clear that things were just heating up, but Ryland Moore struck first, when earlier this month he assaulted John Thompson during an interview with Abby Joseph.
Tonight the pair at 10:00 to win their differences in a last man standing match.".
We cut to a split screen. In the left screen sits John Thompson, looking forward, staring intensely into space, humming along to the song emanating from his ear buds.
He wrings his hands together, biting his lip, the next few minutes are going to be the longest of his life.
He finally gets his hands on Ryland Moore.
He will make him pay for everything, for the assaults, for the words Raul Ramirez has spoken to him, and for trying to end his career.
On the right screen is Ryland Moore and Raul Ramirez. There is a lot more activity in that locker room. Moore paces the floor, as Hot Sauce continues to motivate him.
RR: You're going to destroy this guy once and for all. He's going to wish he never knew your name.
A menacing smile creeps over the face of The Hollywood Monster.
RR: John Thompson says he's going to hurt you, but my brother, he doesn't know what real pain is.
Ryland Moore laughs maniacally, as he looks at the camera and runs his thumb across his throat.
A message sent to John Thompson.

Emily Lyle - The following contest is a last man standing match!
After Raul Ramirez starts up his intro to introduce his giant, "Unstoppable" by E.S. Posthumus starts up and a red spotlight shines only on Ryland. The music continues with the camera looking right up at Ryland. Hot Sauce walks alongside the giant and then he climbs over the ropes.
Emily Lyle - From Hollywood, weighing four hundred and one pounds, Ryland Moore!
The arena goes dark. Simple Man begins playing over the speakers. A lone spotlight appears, and the silhouette of John Thompson stands in the middle of it arms outstretched in a V. For a few moments John Thompson continues to stand in this pose.
Emily Lyle - From Las Vegas, Nevada, weighing two hundred and twenty pounds, John Thompson!
He slowly drops his arms to the sides, then he begins walking to the ring, the spotlight following him. He enters the ring under the ropes, stands in the center posing in the V formation again. The spot light dims as the arena lights brighten. John circles the ring a few times before settling into his corner.
Cliff Morris - We're ready for our next........
John runs at Moore nailing him with repeated punches. He jerks him around slamming his shoulder into the turnbuckles. Moore stumbles from the corner. John runs at Moore nailing him with the Greetings from Vegas (Claymore Kick). Moore falls back on the mat. The referee checks on Moore. He start his count.

“Time to get Punk!” is shouted over the PA system and the crowd goes nuts. “It’s My Life” by Plasmatics plays and Rosie Sinn rips through the curtain full of energy and charisma. She runs to one side of the stage, jumping up and down and waving on the crowd. Then she goes to the other side, does the same, then sprints to the ring and slides under the bottom rope.
She jumps to a random turnbuckle, caters to the crowd, hyping them up, then jumps back to the canvas.
Rosie Sinn: Hello, Durham, North Carolina, I love ya!!
The crowd pops at the playful gimmick Rosie uses, calling them the wrong city.
Rosie Sinn: I was given this allotment of time for an interview, but ya’ll know I hate interviews. They are so impersonal. I’d much rather come out here and talk to my people in person..because…
The crowd shouts back in interaction.
Crowd: That’s punk!!
Rosie Sinn: Ya know what else is punk? When you jack a bully in the f’n jaw with a sweet pair of brass knuckles. Now we can just pray to the Rock Gods and the Wrestling Gods alike that her mouth is wired shut so we don’t have to hear anymore lame short jokes from the yeti. But I’m not out here tonight to talk about Lilith, her time will come at Only the Strong Survive. No, I’m out here to talk about my opponent.
The crowd boos at the mention of Stanton.
Rosie Sinn: Now, don’t boo. Not just yet. Because tonight, he’ll play the hero when he becomes the message to Lilith. Arch Stanton…six foot four, over 300 pounds…he’s one big MFer…but as anyone who’s followed my career knows, I’m always outsized, and there’s a reason I’m often referred to as the Giant Killer! That’s why tonight….
Rosie’s monologue is interrupted by static and feedback from a microphone. The Tron flares to life, displaying none other than Lilith Rising herself who has a “cat that ate the canary” smile on her burgundy lips. The shot is pulled tight on her face and hands, not allowing for much detail on her location to be seen.
Lilith Rising: Is this thing on? (motions to the equipment) I don’t want my dearest friend Rosie to miss a thing…
Inaudible mumbling is picked up and Lilith shifts her full focus to the camera.
Lilith Rising: Sorry for the interruption, my darling girl. I know you’ve got a match coming up but I also know you’re out there doing what you do….pandering to the unwashed masses and tooting your horn. But see, that’s where you went wrong. You made the foolish decision to go out there in the middle of that ring all by yourself, didn’t you?
Lilith gives a slight shrug as she smirks.
Lilith Rising: Now you have to ask yourself something… Did you really think I’d let your little shot with the brass knuckles go? Are you wondering why I care if you’re out there alone… by the way, aren’t you missing someone?
Rosie Sinn: Alone? I don’t need anyone to kick your ass. I figured you might need a show or two to lick your wounds, rebuild your ego…but hey, I don’t have to be alone.
Rosie goes to the ropes, sits on the middle and lifts the top.
Rosie Sinn: You can join me so I can finish what I started last week.
Lilith begins to laugh, her eyes lighting up with delight.
Lilith Rising: That’s absolutely adorable. You really think you can finish me off, don’t you? Silly girl, I wasn’t talking about joining you. I mean, I thought it would be obvious I’m not exactly in the vicinity at the moment but I obviously overestimated your intellect. I’ll make myself a little more clear…
She holds her index finger up in a “hold” gesture and steps back. The shot pans out with her movement, allowing the beaten and restrained Flip Haze tied to a chair. Lilith leans down next to him and grips his face, finally bringing her eyes back to the camera.
Lilith Rising: Now do you realize what you’re missing?
Rosie’s look goes rabid.
Rosie Sinn: This is between me and you, you psychotic yeti bitch! He has nothing to do with this. You know damn well with his injuries, he can’t even f’n defend himself!
Lilith clucks her tongue and shakes her head in mock disapproval.
Lilith Rising: Now who’s resorting to insults, hmmm? (Smirking) You call me yeti, I call you Samwise - we get the point. But here’s the thing - I’m not the one who sucker punched you with a weapon, am I? I’m not the one that brought my invalid sidekick to a wrestling show afterwards, am I, you mental midget? What happens to him is all on your hands, not mine bitch.
Lilith bends down and retrieves a heavy, metal wrench from the floor, causing Flip’s eyes to widen. She looks at the camera and blows Rosie a mocking kiss before bringing the wrench down hard on Flip’s shoulder repeatedly.
Rosie drops the mic and takes off running as camera follows. She pulls the curtain and goes backstage. As soon as Rosie gets through the curtain, she is doubled over by a cane shot to the ribs. As Rosie drops to the ground, Jake Mason comes out from the shadows, and just smiles.
Jake Mason: Oh little one. One would think you’d know it better than to try and intimidate your betters. I caught your friend, because I knew exactly where he would be. I could say that it’s because I know every action before it happens in your time. The truth though, is that you creatures are so predictable.
Rosie Sinn tries to get up, but drops back to the ground as Mason gives her another shot to the ribs with his walking cane.
Jake Mason: I wasn’t finished yet. You creatures are so predictable. It almost makes the hunt not worth having. I’m still going to hunt you down even if the sport of it is taken away. Good Night Rosie, and don’t fret. I promise you Flip won’t die tonight. It’s still a few more months until he dies by his own hand. Sleep well knowing it’s your fault.
Jake Mason gives Rosie Sinn one last shot to the ribs before he walks away.

LADIES & GENTS, THIS IS THE MOMENT YOU’VE WAITED FOR!
"The Greatest Show" begins to play throughout the arena. The lights slowly dim as the music plays while the spotlights move in sequence across the audience and back to the stage in sequence with the bear of the music.
DON’T FIGHT IT, IT’S COMING FOR YOU, RUNNING AT YA
IT’S ONLY THIS MOMENT, DON’T CARE WHAT COMES AFTER
YOUR FEVER DREAM, CAN’T YOU SEE IT GETTING CLOSER
JUST SURRENDER ‘CAUSE YOU FEEL THE FEELING TAKING OVER
IT’S FIRE, IT’S FREEDOM, IT’S FLOODING OPEN
IT’S A PREACHER IN THE PULPIT AND YOUR BLIND DEVOTION
THERE’S SOMETHING BREAKING
AT THE BRICK OF EVERY WALL IT’S HOLDING
ALL THAT YOU KNOW, SO TELL ME DO TOU WANNA GO?
Seemingly hundreds of camera flashes begin lighting up the darkened arena then suddenly the curtain is thrown back and Robb Daniels and his wife Lauren Parker emerge from behind the curtain...Robb wears a very serious look upon his face, walking down the center of the runway with his wife in tow.
WHERE IT’S COVERED IN ALL THE COLORED LIGHTS
WHERE TGE RUNAWAYS ARE RUNNING THE NIGHT
IMPOSSIBLE COMES TRUE, IT’S TAKING OVER YOU
OH, THIS IS THE GREATEST SHOW!
WE LIGHT IT UP, WE WON’T COME DOWN
AND THE SUN CAN’T STOP US NOW
WATCHING IT CONE TRUE, IT’S TAKING OVER YOU
OH, THIS IS THE GREATEST SHOW!
He stops on the apron, holding the ropes open for his wife then wiping his shoes before stepping through himself. He circles the ring, removing his sunglasses. He climbs up on the turnbuckles and looks around at the crowd, smiling and enjoying the moment. He tells the camera that he's the greatest wrestler to ever live before dropping down and retrieving two microphones from the ring announcer.
Robb Daniels - Ladies and Gentlemen. I have returned to aide my beautiful lady and together we will vanquish the Team Madness. It’s been nearly three months since Starrzone. It’s been a tumultuous journey from who I was to who I am now...
Lauren Parker - What he’s trying to say is that Robb Daniels is more than just a former three time UWL World Champion. He’s a trail blazer, a trend setter, he inspires and motivates. He creates and innovates. More importantly he believes that the show must always go on and that in this business it takes more than one star to lite up the sky...
Robb Daniels - Precisely! I may not be your UWL Champion but I am and always will be a Headliner! But things change...the sport has changed. It’s a much younger, faster and bolder persons business than it was fifteen years ago. You must realize in show business your role because if you don’t you’re name will go from the marquee to the funny papers!
“The longevity of my career speaks for itself. My success has came from being able to roll with the punches, adapt to my surroundings and evolve. As long as their is a breath of air in these lungs I will forever love the business of professional wrestling.”
Daniels paced back and forth.
Robb Daniels: It’s time to turn the page and start a new chapter of the Daniels Manifesto. It’s time to bring the family closer together but most importantly the show must go on!
THIS IS THE GREATEST SHOW!
"The Greatest Show" begins playing once again inside the arena. As Robb Daniels tossed his microphone and extends both arms turning soaking in the mixed emotions of the fans as the show goes to commercial break.

The picture cuts up to the ring.

Emily Lyle - The following contest is set for one fall with a fifteen minute time limit!
"Outsider" by Veil of Maya begins playing throughout the arena. The lights dim with multiple spotlights crossing on the stage as Owen Daniels appears with a smug look on his face looking out at the fans. Daniels begins walking toward the ring. He climbs the ring stairs, walks along the apron to the far corner and stands on the middle rope leaning against the top turnbuckle with one arm in the air.
Emily Lyle - From Knoxville, Tennessee, weighing two hundred and sixteen pounds, Owen Daniels!
Daniels looks down at the camera pointing at it telling the fans watching from home just how good he is. He steps down from the ropes and enters the ring through the middle and top rope and awaits his opponent.
The crowd is buzzing when suddenly the lights go out.
GREATEST
OF
ALL
TIME
"Born for Greatness" by Papa Roach plays as the crowd buzzes, as the crowd goes nuts. The first verse plays out, causing more anticipation. As the verse comes to the end it pauses for a moment. All of the lights go out again, but then come right back on in full brightness!!!
NO WE'RE NOT NAMELESS
WE'RE NOT FACELESS
WE WERE BORN FOR GREATNESS!!!
Emily Lyle - From Chicago, Illinois weighing two hundred and forty pounds, Billy Danielson!!
Suddenly, Billy "The G.O.A.T." Danielson walks out from behind the curtain to a huge pop, as he makes his way down to the ring. He's in wrestling gear, high-fiving fans as he makes his way to the ring. He wipes his feet before going up to the apron, and into the ring. The fans continue to cheer as Danielson throws his arms in the air. He slowly backs into his corner and waits for the bell to ring.
Cliff Morris - We're ready for action. As we're about to see two athletes who are very familiar with one another face off in this one on one contest. As, Billy Danielson takes on Owen Daniels.

Owen wrenches his arms around Billy’s head with the headlock.
Cliff Morris - Owen Daniels takes the advantage with the headlock, wrenching on Billy Danielson's head.
Logan Acker - Billy's only giving young Daniels enough of a edge before he goes in for the strike.
Billy pulls Owen’s arms up taking him into an overhand wristlock. Owen lets loose of the hold slapping Billy in his side with a hard shot taking back the headlock. Billy manages to walk Owen into the corner. The referee calls for a break. Billy steps back, Owen steps forward him nailing him with a pair of hard forearm strikes. He nails him with a hard European upper cut, which stuns Billy.
Cliff Morris - Owen Daniels showing fury with a European upper cut!
Logan Acker - Billy Danielson knows what he's doing.

They both return to their feet. Owen comes at, Billy he shoves him back. Owen stumbles back into the referee. The referee falls into the corner. Billy kicks Owen with a low blow and drops him with the Thinning the Herd (RKO). He pushes him over covering him, the referee counts.

Cliff Morris - Oh give me a break.

Billy stands with a smirk on his face and his arms in the air.
The show cuts to a break.

DURING THE BREAK...
Owen Daniels can be seen busting through gorilla and down the steps into the backstage area. He is quickly approached by Abby Joseph with a microphone in hand.
Abby Joseph - Owen. Daniels?
’Yes...”
Owen stops looking over his shoulder before slowly turning around.
’Son...If a beautiful woman asks you for a moment of your time, you should always take her up on that offer...”
Owen Daniels - What the hell do you want?
Robb Daniels - Owen, I know that I am the last person you want to talk to but I didn’t raise you to be like that. I taught you to be honorable not a sore loser...
Owen’s eyes fill with anger.
Owen Daniels - Are you kidding me? Think about that statement. You didn’t raise me. You we’re off living your dream. With your new family.
Robb removes his glasses, folds them and places them in his jacket pocket.
Robb Daniels - I may have failed you as a father but I won’t allow you to fail in this business.
Owen Daniels - I don’t need your help. I never asked for it. So why do you keep hovering over me and only showing up at the worst times possible...
Robb Daniels - You’ve got a chip the size of Texas on your shoulder and it’s hurting you. You should take that chip and use it to your advantage. You may not have asked for my help but you definitely do need it. I don’t care what you say son. We’ve had more good times than bad and I can’t change the past but I can definitely help you with your future. If you’ll allow it.../color]
Owen Daniels - I have lost four times to Billy Danielson...four times. I haven’t even been close. Maybe I shouldn’t even be here...
Robb Daniels - You may not know this but when Billiam broke into the business years ago he beat me clean. He shocked the hell out of me and even himself that night. He’s been doing this a while Owen. He is very good. For four years I’ve paid him ‘top guy’ money over in Mainstream because he is that damn good so don’t be ashamed of it. Instead learn from it. Harness all that anger you have for me inside and use it for determination.
Owen Daniels - Why are you doing this?
Robb Daniels - Because you’re nearing rock bottom and about to break. You’re a second generation wrestler and a natural in the ring. You’re going to be so much better than me. I just know it.
Owen Daniels - I just don’t understand why all of a sudden you care.
Robb Daniels - I’ve always cared Owen. I worked a very busy schedule when you were growing up because I had to. We needed the money, I wasn’t a second generation wrestler and I didn’t have the connections and opportunities that you’ve had...
Owen Daniels - Nobody has handed me anything...
Robb Daniels - Sure you didn’t. See you might think I’m following you around but who trained at my wrestling school in Seattle? Who got there pro debut match in my wrestling promotion? Who signed their first real pro deal in a company with their fathers name all over the history books? You’ve taken every opportunity and knocked it out of the park. So what if you can’t get over the hump with Billy Danielson. Eventually, you will. And when you do that win will be much sweeter than any meaningless series of wins in a couple months.
“Take some time. Think about it. I want to mentor you. Seriously, think about it. And remember no matter what you decide that everything changes right here, tonight. Your future is bright and it’s up to you on what you do with it. Make smart choices son...”
Robb Daniels turns and walks outside of the frame turning the corner of the hallway and out of sight. The camera comes in close on the profile of Owen Daniels as the show returns from commercial break.
Cliff Morris - Fan's let's join Abby Joseph in the locker room area.
Backstage Abby Joseph is standing with Matt Ryker who has a towel around his neck and looks upset.
Abby Joseph - Matt Ryker you asked for this time to get something off your chest.
Matt looks around clearing his throat, pushing his hair back as the sweat falls off his hair.
Matt Ryker - You know I thought getting rid of being a team with Titus would help my career.
Matt shakes his head.
Matt Ryker - I thought aliening myself with the Phoenix would help my career.
Matt shakes his head.
Matt Ryker - My career is going nowhere. I can't catch a break. I came here to Championship Promotions with the idea of making it big and heading to the top. That's not happened. I don't know what else to do.
Matt walks off as Abby stands looking confused.
