The scene opens up as official opening theme song of EHWF Saturday Night Mayhem, “Back It” by Yizzy and Dizzie Rascal, is playing in the background. We pan into the scene where we see fans screaming in the crowd in the Footprint Center! As we cut to the pyrotechnics show, we move onto the broadcast area at ringside where Steve White and Chuck Thompson are waiting to start the night!
Steve White: Ladies and Gentlemen! We welcome you to Saturday Night Mayhem LIVE from the Footprint Center here in Phoenix, Arizona!! What an absolutely incredible night we have planned for you all tonight! It’s an insanely sombre night tonight after the tragic death of Sah’ta Thor at Retribution last week but the show must go on and we need a World Champion! With the unfortunate, unexpected and untimely passing of former EHWF World Champion Sah'ta Thor at Retribution - the world is in shock and mourning. It was a tragedy at Retribution and the whole of EHWF has felt it. Tonight, the search for a new EHWF World Champion begins to find someone to pick up where Thor left off. Scott Wilson, the man who was the favourite to win the Retribution Royale but was cost the opportunity gets another huge chance here tonight. David Ashburn and Mass Mancini along with Arcus D'Rocco get their opportunity to prove themselves after working so hard in 2023. Mazzio's presence has already been felt back on Mayhem and he's looking for a 3rd World Championship reign tonight! Isabella Thorn wants to continue her fathers legacy. Joanna, Alexandria and Zoe all want to get their hands on World Championship gold in 2024 and Thea Nefeli, much like Scott Wilson who was victimised by Sah'ta Thor is looking to get that World Championship back and get some retribution and closure of her own! It's 10 of the very best stars in EHWF and the world and they're gonna fight it out to see who becomes the new champion of professional wrestling! Don't miss it!
Chuck Thompson: Chelsea LeClair and Amanda Fien were unable to work together as a decent team at Retribution but luckily for Chelsea, the match ended in a no contest and her streak is still in tact. Tonight management wants to give both women a chance to got at it again as teammates. They'll take on Joanna Rissi and Azzurra Rissi in tag team action but at this time of year and with Final Destination coming up, most of these women including Amanda Fien would be eyeing off Chelsea's prestigious Jr Heavyweight Championship! This match might just be the excuse Amanda needs!
Steve White: It was a MASSIVE return for Wilmer Patacky at Retribution - making a big impact in the match. Ultimately he clashed with Dan Anderson who desperately tried to win the match as well but couldn't get there. Rebecca Delfina had an amazing night, falling short as well but making a huge influence on the match. Tonight, Wilmer and Dan get to settle what they started at Retribution. They go head to head in a mixed tag team match with Roxanne by her brothers side and Rebecca Delfina helping out Wilmer Patacky. The Age of Fall are still claiming they're just getting started in EHWF and will bring pain and torment to anyone who gets in their way of gold!
Chuck Thompson: It's been an insane 15 months for Mark Bladsco - getting unmasked for the first time since he founded EHWF. We thought the psychotic Scorpion had finally transformed his life into the calm, collected and respectful Mark Bladsco. At Retribution Mark Bladsco had a moment of weakness and after getting eliminated, suffered a massive mental breakdown which lead him to steal a play Scorpion mask from a kid at ringside, put it on, rage out and brutally attack Scott Wilson which deeply hurt Scott's chances in the Retribution Royale. After Fernandez Gomez had made light of Mark Bladsco's betterment and transformation months ago, tonight he's decided to put him in a match with Ace Pena to see if he's really changed or if Scorpion is somewhere still inside his head!
Steve White: And we’ll hear from Retribution Royale winner Michael Rissi when he hosts EHWF 360 live on Mayhem tonight!!
Chuck Thompson: I can’t wait for tonight, Steve! Lets start the show!
After Steve and Chuck finish outlining the upcoming show the camera shifts to show the entire EHWF roster from both rosters standing on the stage and ramp with various expressions on their faces. From the gathered roster Astryd Thorn steps forward and walks down the ramp before coming to a stop halfway down it. She has an Empire of Blood shirt on with a black armband on her right arm with the initials "ST" emblazoned on it in dark red. Lifting a microphone to her lips she takes a breath before speaking.
Astryd Thorn: As has been mentioned already tonight's Mayhem is dedicated to the memory of the EHWF's fallen legend Sah'ta Thor. A man who we can all agree polarized reactions with how he did things. Yet, at Retribution a man that showed the true level of his devotion to this company with his final match. However, tonight I have the mixed honor of giving you that man's last words to the EHWF world in the form of a video he recorded before Retribution to be aired now.
With those words Astryd points towards the tron as the arena's lights dim to play a video package.
We shift back to the ring where all the members of both Insidious and Thorn Enterprises were gathered. Each member wears an Empire of Blood shirt. On their right arms was a black armband with the initials "ST"emblazoned on it in dark red. Currently we see Isabella Thorn standing in the center of the ring with a microphone in hand. After a few seconds she brings it to her lips before starting to speak.
Isabella Thorn: We just heard what my father had to say about his life and career. Yet, he didn't go into the details of his accolades or accomplishments. Though he did touch on that in a video that got posted to the EHWF website before this addition of Mayhem. However, let me give you a run down for those who haven't seen that yet. You see, for all the doubt and second guessing that he received in his career my father had 48 different total title reigns and 5 Hall of Fame inductions. Admittedly, much of the underdog feelings that my father expressed over the course of his career were a result of his own mental health demons. However, of his 48 title reigns 12 were world title level belts. The rest were broken down with 9 hardcore belts, 6 international belts, 2 regional belts, 2 ironman belts, 6 Cruiserweight belts, 3 television titles, 7 tag team titles, and 1 24/7 title. Of those 48 championships Sah'ta Thor earned 9 of them here in EHWF as well as one of his Hall of Fame rings. Of his 9 EHWF championships 4 of them were World Titles, 2 Hardcore titles, the first North American title reign, and 1 tag team title run.
Isabella falls silent lowering the microphone before stepping back to stand next to her husband Ace. As she steps back Sujir steps into the center of the ring with the microphone in his hand.
Sujir Thorn: Yet, another major thing that many people may not know is that my father is that during his career he competed in many innovative hardcore matches. Over the years he competed in 24 or more unique types of cage matches making his most common hardcore type. I know that most people won't understand how a thing like that can impact a wrestler's career but it matters. Yet I digress will let others share some thoughts so the show can go on.
Sujir steps back and Aaron Frederick Hudson steps forward to replace him in the center of the ring.
Aaron Frederick Hudson: Another big part of who Sah'ta Thor was as a person revolved around his family. As he revealed he had many issues throughout his life when it came to his family life. Yet ever since I met him he was working hard to improve those relationships. Even when it came to the conflicts we had in the ring over the years were for show even while dealing with deep seated issues. With that in mind he leaves behind an extended family containing 13 children, 30 adopted children, and 6 grandchildren. There are several friends who were close enough to be considered family but for the sake of this aren't included in what I am saying. Sah'ta Thor was the mentor and father figure I needed over the years and will be greatly missed.
There is a pause as Aaron takes a breath before giving a slight head shake. He steps back to where Lu Chen and Sujir were standing. A few seconds later Imanov steps forward to the center of the ring.
Imanov Chovsceh: Throughout my father's career he made no secret of the issues he had. In fact, he openly embraced the fact that he was a flawed being. In fact, if you take a look at his ring monikers and his actions there is no doubt of this. While many people would see this as his being an evil man the reality is far from the truth. You see it was his acceptance of his inner darkness that helped him keep from being swallowed by it. Anyone who actually knew him outside the context of wrestling would know that my father was one of the most caring men you could have ever met. His support and love helped me overcome my alcohol addiction. There are many out there with similar stories but for now he would want us to get on with the show.
Imanov steps back to the ring ropes as he looks around the others to see who else would step forward to speak. After a few seconds it is clear that no one else was going to speak so Isabella once more returns to the center of the ring where she lifts the microphone once more. She turns to look up the ramp way as she gives her arm a wave over the gathering in the ring.
Isabella Thorn: We are my father's legacy. Not just those of us standing here in this ring but everyone who is currently a part of the EHWF today. Many of you won't want to accept that reality but the reality is that the EHWF wouldn't be here today if it hadn't been for what Sah'ta Thor did over the years. His actions while often viewed in the lens of his being a bad guy were what were needed most at that moment. So again I say we are his legacy. He wanted the best for the EHWF and for it to grow to the best it could become. Let us all take what he did in his life as an example of how we can continue what he started. He was always striving to get those around him to improve in and out of the ring. I hope that we can continue that here in the EHWF in the years to come regardless of how you felt at Sah'ta Thor.
With those words she falls silent a moment before giving a slight shake of her head.
Isabella Thorn: However, the show must go on. Which means at this time I would welcome you all to join us for a moment of silence and the ten bell salute to honor the fallen EHWF Hall of Famer and former World Champion Sah'ta Thor.
As she falls silent the lights dim as a highlight video of Sah'ta Thor's entire EHWF Career begins to play on the tron. Clips of his every title match and other top moments are shown ending with his fall from the cage at Retribution. After the highlight package plays the lights slowly come back up as the ring bell begins to toll ten times. Each toll is a few seconds apart until the final one echos through the arena. As the last bell rings out an image appears on the tron showing an image of Sah'ta Thor with the years of his birth and death below it. We cut to a commercial break on this image.
We cut to the ring where Illa Isabella is waiting with a mic.
Illa Isabella: This opening contest tonight is set for one fall!
Mark Bladsco comes out looking a little dishevelled, waddling out and adjusting his glasses as he gets to the steel steps and smacks them! He gets inside the ring and looks around at the fans. He looks like he’s doing breathing exercises in the corner as he waits for his opponent to appear to start the match.
Illa Isabella: Introducing First… Mark Bladsco!
The PA System hits with the opening of OTW as the fans all pick up in the stands and begin to cheer. As the lighting darkens and styles and the smoke goes off, Ace Pena emerges onto the stage and looks out at all of the cheering and screaming fans! He holds his arms out before taking his sunglasses off and with a smile, makes his way down the ramp. He high fives some of the fans cheering for him in the crowd before sprinting down the remainder of the ramp and sliding into the ring. He looks out at the fans, getting up onto the turnbuckle, raising his arms and celebrating his arrival as he gets off of the ropes and makes his way into the middle of the ring, stretching and loosening up.
Illa Isabella: And next… His opponent… He is one half of the EHWF Mixed Tag Team Champions… Ace Pena!
DING DING DING!
Ace Pena starts with lightning-fast moves, ducking under Mark Bladsco's attempted grapple and delivering a quick series of kicks to his midsection. Bladsco stumbles back but quickly recovers, using his brute strength to grab Pena and toss him across the ring! Pena lands gracefully on his feet, showing off his agility as he bounces off the ropes and leaps towards Bladsco with a flying crossbody. But Bladsco catches him effortlessly, hoisting Pena up and slamming him down with a powerful spinebuster! As Pena writhes on the mat, Bladsco looks frustrated and tries to calm himself as he talks to himself in the corner while Pena gets a chance to recover on the mat.
Steve White: Mark Bladsco for a number of weeks had that internal conflict with the Scorpion mask that was spurred on and fuelled by Fernandez Gomez which lead to him brutally assaulting Scott Wilson during the Retribution Royale when he was eliminated by him but it looks like Bladsco is back on track now!
Chuck Thompson: He’s fought hard not to go back to Scorpion!
Pena isn't out of the fight yet. With a burst of energy, he rolls out of the way as Bladsco attempts a massive leg drop, leaving the powerhouse stunned! The momentum shifts as Pena takes to the skies once again, hitting Bladsco with a stunning shooting star press! But before he can capitalise, Bladsco rolls through and catches, showcasing his raw strength with a devastating powerslam as the fans go WILD! Both wrestlers lie on the mat, exhausted but determined. The crowd roars with anticipation as the match hangs in the balance, neither competitor willing to back down! Bladsco punches the mat and roars as he gets up! Ace gets up slowly and Bladsco levels Ace with a hugging clothesline! Ace is up and Bladsco hits Ace with a right hand the another then another then another! Ace hits the ropes and Bladsco hugs Ace and plants him with a belly to belly square on the mat as the fans go wild!
Steve White: Ace with some flashy offense but Bladsco is too strong!
Chuck Thompson: A lot of power there from Bladsco!
With the crowd on their feet, Ace Pena and Mark Bladsco slowly rise to their feet, each showing signs of wear from the intense back-and-forth battle! Pena, fuelled by the adrenaline rush, charges at Bladsco, delivering a flurry of quick strikes to his opponent's chest and head. But Bladsco, absorbs the punishment and retaliates with a thunderous clothesline that sends Pena crashing to the mat once again! Bladsco grabs Pena by the hair, pulling him up with ease, and sets him up for his signature finishing move, the Bladsco Bomb. Just as Bladsco lifts Pena into the air, ready to execute the devastating manoeuvre, Pena manages to wriggle free, slipping out of Bladsco's grasp. With lightning speed, Pena capitalises on the opening, executing a breathtaking hurricanrana that sends Bladsco tumbling out of the ring as the fans go wild! Ace is bleeding from his mouth and nose as he crawls to the ropes in pain! Bladsco gets up using the barricade and the fans get super loud!
Steve White: Ace getting the upper hand now!
Chuck Thompson: Bladsco outside the ring and into that barricade as Ace gets control of this one slowly!
!As Bladsco staggers outside the ring, he catches sight of a fan holding his old Scorpion mask merchandise in the front row. His eyes widen, a mix of nostalgia and anger swirling within him. Without a second thought, he snatches the mask from the fan's hands, a fire reigniting within him. Meanwhile, Fernandez Gomez, emerges at the bottom of the stage, a wicked smirk playing on his lips. He yells out to Bladsco, urging him to put on the mask and embrace his past as Scorpion once again.
Fernandez Gomez: C’mon! C’mon you fucking pussy! Put the mask on! Do it! You know you want to! How good did it feel to be yourself again at Retribution, Scorpion! Put the fucking mask on and show me what you’ve got!
Steve White: What the fuck is going on! Bladsco going nuts when he saw that Scorpion mask again, bringing up memories of his past like last time at Retribution and Fernandez is egging him on!
Chuck Thompson: This is sickening! Scorpion wrestling with himself right now!
Bladsco hesitates, torn between his desire to reclaim his former glory and his current identity as Mark Bladsco. The internal conflict rages within him as he clutches the mask tightly in his hand. But as Ace Pena slowly gets up using the ropes, Bladsco makes his decision. With a determined expression, he dons the Scorpion mask, the embodiment of his past persona. He huffs and puffs and seethes with rage as he wrestles with the mask, trying to take it off but also holding in on tight as he screams! The crowd erupts into a frenzy as Bladsco, now transformed into Scorpion, re-enters the ring with newfound rage and anger! With each strike, he unleashes the full force of his power, relentlessly pummelling Ace Pena into a bloody pulp! Scorpion gets on top of Ace on the mat and beats his head in with a ground and pound and big right hands as he screams with each blow! Blood drips from Pena's brow as Scorpion delivers a final, devastating blow, leaving his opponent sprawled out on the mat. The ref dives on Ace! The bell rings, signalling the end of the match as Scorpion stands tall in the ring with the fans BOOING!
DING DING DING!
Illa Isabella: Here is your winner… via knockout… Mark Blads… Uh… Scorpion!
Steve White: Scorpion beating the fuck out of Ace Pena a knocking him out as Mark Bladsco puts on the mask!
Chuck Thompson: This is brutal!
Scorpion tries to tear the mask off but he wrestles with himself internally! He grabs Ace from the mat and plants him with Scorpion Drop! The fans get louder and louder as Ace is a bloody mess, struggling on the canvas! Scorpion goes off to the side and calls for Scorpoon!
Steve White: Someone get Ace outta there! Scorpion is gonna kill him!
Chuck Thompson: I don’t think Bladsco wanted to put that mask on but the urge was too overwhelming and now he’s gonna take it out on Ace!
Scorpion runs up for Scorpoon when Ace gets to a knee but Isabella appears on the outside and drags Ace out of the ring, barely saving him! Scorpion looks out as they stumble back up the ramp together!
Steve White: Isabella barely saving Ace here tonight!
Chuck Thompson: Scorpion and Fernandez Gomez looking out and look at the sick grin and laughter on Gomez’s face!
Scorpion looks out and looks down at Fernandez Gomez at the bottom of the ramp who is laughing at Scorpion before we fade out to a video package.
The scene starts with Amanda Fien sitting at her desk with a notebook open. For the past couple of weeks, she’s been keeping a diary and writing in it of people that she doesn’t like or things she’s been through. Amanda has a pen in hand and as page open. We see her banging her pen back and forth.
Amanda Fien: I’m sure that this is the introduction that everyone wants to see and hear. I am sure that this is how my career on the Mayhem Brand is going to start off.
Amanda smirks and keeps moving her hand with the pen in it.
Amanda Fien: For everyone that doesn’t know me, my name is Amanda Fien or formerly known as Hayley Fien. You may have heard some things about me and heard them from the people that don’t know a damn thing about me. Chapter one is up and go read it because you will see how everything unfolds.
Amanda opens the pen and starts writing down some things before stopping.
Amanda Fien: My wrestling career has not been all roses and flowers. It started out promising and then it went down hill from here. I was a rising star, only to become fired by political bullshit only to go to another company, win their X-Divison Championship to lose it and then the company shuts before I even can get a rematch…
She rolls her eyes.
Amanda Fien: Now it’s time to write a new chapter in a new book, and it starts this week during the tag match!
She looks at the camera and starts writing “Chelsea LeClair” name in her little book that she has.
Amanda Fien: Chelsea LeClair, this chapter in my journal is dedicated to you and let me tell you, with the people that’s already in here, five to be exact, you don’t want your name in here AT ALL…
She stares at the name that she wrote down.
Amanda Fien: But knowing the reaction that you’re going to have about teaming up with me and hearing everything ABOUT me, you are going to leave me know other choice. Are you seriously and I mean seriously afraid that I am going to fuck up your undefeated streak that you have going on? Are you seriously afraid of what people are going to think about YOU teaming up with me?
She writes something in her book, but we don’t see what she’s exactly writing.
Amanda Fien: I could care any goddamn less about what anyone thinks about this rate! The only thing I care for is me getting a head start even if I have to team up against you when I even don’t want to! Though I will say this about our opponents…
She writes down their names in the book.
Amanda Fien: The Rissi girls don’t know what’s about to happen against them. I don’t mind making them another chapter in this book that I have open and about the things I want to do to them. They don’t know the torture they are about to go through in this match up. I know, twisted…
She smirks.
Amanda Fien: Being twisted is the perfect way to go these days instead of being too good for their own good…
She closes the book.
Amanda Fien: And Chelsea, after this is all set and done, you WILL be taking me later.
Amanda stands back up as the scene fades out.
We cut to the ring where Illa Isabella is waiting with a mic.
Illa Isabella: This following tag team contest tonight is set for one fall!
"The Other Side" by Alter Bridge begins to play throughout the arena and the lights begin to dim down, leaving a single spotlight on the stage. A few seconds later, each member in the match make their way out, stopping on top of the stage. They have grins on their faces as they take a moment to soak in the crowd's reaction towards them before slowly making their way down to the ring, the spotlight following them. Once they reach the ring, they go up the steel steps and enter the ring. They stand in the middle of the ring, looking out towards the crowd then hold one finger up in the air, the arena lighting back up. The two would fistbump then stand by the ropes and face forward. They still have grins on their faces as they wait, doing some pre-match warm-ups.
Illa Isabella: Introducing First… Dan Anderson and Roxanne… The Age of Fall!
Electricity by Silk City & Dua Lipa hits the speakers as the arena dims leaving red and white lights strobe through. The fans cheer as Rebecca steps out from behind the curtain. Standing in the center of the ramp she spreads her arms slightly as she extends her arms out to the side with her elbows bent.
Walking down the ramp, she runs her hand threw her hair before tagging some of the fans hands with her own as they reach over the barricade desperately, trying to high five her. She spins around and tries to high five as many hands as she can when she gets to the ringside area.
As she walks up the steal steps Rebecca has a confident smirk on her face as she walks along the apron's edge. Wiping her feet off before entering the ring under the second rope, she stands back up, flipping her hair over her shoulder before walking to the furthest side of the ring where she warms up for her match.
Illa Isabella: And next… Their opponents tonight… First up… Rebecca Delfina!
The lights dimmed down, as the opening guitar riffs to Reel Big Fish’s cover of “Take On Me” began to blare throughout the arena. Yellow and orange lights began to shine down and move throughout the arena as the main lights lit back up. The titan tron lit up in orange, with the word “WACKY” flashing across it in yellow font.
ONE.
TWO.
ONE TWO THREE FOUR!
The song picked up as Wilmer exploded from behind the curtain with his usual high energy and goofy grin spread across his face as he pointed his right index finger to the sky! Wilmer is rocking yellow and orange tie dye tights with a darker shade of yellow jester-style pointed toe boots with orange laces. Wilmer looked down at the ring as he lowered his right arm to be pointing down to it while nodding his head to the beat of the song. Wilmer would then make his way down the ramp, skanking to the beat of the song as he did so. He slapped hands with fans along the way before he ran and slid into the ring underneath the bottom rope. He quickly pushes himself up to his feet. Wilmer would skank around the ring a little more around the ring before he would make his way over to a corner, getting in a few last second stretches before the match starts.
Illa Isabella: And finally… her partner tonight… The Wacky One… Wilmer Patacky!
DING DING DING!
As the bell rang, signalling the start of the match, Wilmer wasted no time, springing into action with a series of dropkicks as the fans go wild for his return to Mayhem! He launched himself off the ropes with lightning speed, aiming a flying dropkick at Dan, who narrowly sidestepped the attack! Quick to capitalise on the opening, Dan seized Wilmer's leg mid-air, twisting it with precision and bringing him crashing down to the mat with a thud! The crowd gasped as Wilmer grimaced in pain, momentarily stunned by the sudden turn of events as Dan taunted and insulted and started stomping on Wilmer’s chest as the ref comes over and tells him off!
Steve White: Dan and Wilmer putting on a big technical contest right now! Dan coming back with some counters but Wilmer just too damn good!
Chuck Thompson: The fans are overjoyed to see Wilmer back tonight as he builds momentum with Final Destination in his sights!!
Dan wasted no time, immediately targeting Wilmer's leg with calculated strikes exploiting any weakness! With each agonising twist and wrench, he methodically wore down his opponent, denying Wilmer the opportunity to regain his footing and launch another aerial assault!
However, Wilmer refused to stay down, summoning his resilience as he fought through the pain, determined to turn the tide in his favour. With a burst of adrenaline, he managed to create some distance between himself and Dan, regaining his vertical base and preparing to unleash another flurry of attacks as he dropkicked Dan to the mat! Wilmer comes off of the top rope and lands on Dan with a twisting crossbody and the fans go wild as Wilmer lines Dan up!
Steve White: Wilmer coming away with control tonight!
Chuck Thompson: The Age of Fall need this win but Wilmer wants to make sure he gets a big Mayhem return win tonight!
Dan, ever the opportunist, with a well-timed counter, Dan intercepted Wilmer mid-air, catching him in a devastating spinebuster that sent shockwaves reverberating through the ring! As Wilmer lay writhing on the canvas, Dan pounced on the opportunity, methodically applying a series of aggressive stomps! The fans boo as Dan grabs Wilmer and gets him in a headlock! Wilmer won’t tap! He lifts Dan up and plants him with a body drop! Wilmer springs off of the middle then top ropes and hits Dan with a hurricanrana! The fans go WILD as Dan stumbles to his feet but Wilmer plants him with a big suplex as the fans roar! Wilmer picks up Dan but Dan elbows Wilmer in the gut! Wilmer knees Dan in the head and sends him to the mat as Wilmer dives up and tags in Rebecca with the fans go wild!
Steve White: The fans LOSE IT for that tag in to Rebecca!
Chuck Thompson: I’m losing it too! Look at her!!
Rebecca LAUNCHES herself off of the top rope and lands on Dan with a body dive through the air as the fans roar with cheers! Rebecca is up and jumps up on Dan’s back and flips him over on the mat with big impact as she hits him with a big sunset flip slam with the fans go wild as she covers!
1…

KICK OUT!
Rebecca picks Dan up and bounces his head off of the corner but he punches her in the head and smacks her head off of the corner! He whips her into the rope and goes for a clothesline on the way back but she ducks him and bounces back hitting him with a running hurricanrana! She gets up and hits him with another hurricanrana! She wants another but Dan boots her down to the mat and falls in the corner, tagging in Roxanne!
Steve White: Near fall for Rebecca but Dan kicks out and Rebecca keeps The Age of Fall on the back-foot!
Chuck Thompson: Roxanne gets the tag in and here she comes!
Rebecca wasted no time in asserting her dominance, charging towards Roxanne with a burst of speed that caught her off guard! With a display of incredible strength, Rebecca hoisted Roxanne into the air, executing a picture-perfect suplex that got a huge pop from the crowd. However, Roxanne, quickly regained her composure, using her cunning to turn the tables on her opponent. As Rebecca moved in for another attack, Roxanne deftly sidestepped, causing Rebecca to crash into the turnbuckle with a thunderous impact. Seizing the opportunity, Roxanne targeted Rebecca's midsection with a barrage of well-placed strikes, aiming to weaken her!
Steve White: What a match! Rebecca and Roxanne going at it right now and the fans are going crazy!
Chuck Thompson: Rebecca fighting tough right now and taking it to Roxanne!
Rebecca refused to fall, drawing upon her strong body, powering through Roxanne! With a display of agility, she countered Roxanne's attacks with lightning-fast reflexes, delivering a series of powerful strong style kicks and punches that sent Roxanne reeling! Roxanne, hurt but undeterred, started methodically wearing down Rebecca with a combination of precision strikes and cunning hits. As Rebecca attempted to mount another offensive, Roxanne lured her into a false sense of security, baiting her into a trap and locking in a punishing sleeper hold that threatened to sap away her strength! Yet, just when it seemed that all hope was lost, Rebecca summoned her inner strength, powering out of Roxanne's hold with sheer power! The fans LOSE IT and Roxanne is shocked! With a renewed sense of determination, she unleashed a relentless barrage of lariats! Dan Anderson runs in and clubs Rebecca in the back! Wilmer launches off of the top rope and takes Dan out with a missile dropkick through the air as the fans go wild! Dan gets up but Wilmer runs up and clotheslines him over the top rope to the outside as both men hits the floor! Roxanne gets up and boots Rebecca in the back and then lines her up!
Steve White: Roxanne with a window of opportunity here!
Chuck Thompson: Rebecca down for a moment but Wilmer cut Dan off with that huge missile dropkick!
Roxanne grabs Rebecca by the hair and neck and goes for Shadows Fall (Snapmare Driver) as the fans ROAR but Rebecca breaks out of it with her strength and powers Roxanne up on her back in a perfect counter as she hits Roxanne with Zenith Slam (Argentine facebuster) slamming Roxanne down face first on the mat off of her back! The fans go WILD as Rebecca covers Roxanne and ends this one!

DING DING DING!
Illa Isabella: Here are your winners tonight… The team of… Wilmer Patacky and Rebecca Delfina!
Steve White: Wilmer and Rebecca do it! They get the win over The Age of Fall here tonight!
Chuck Thompson: Huge win for these two!
The fans are going wild as Rebecca and Wilmer hug and get their arms raised together but their celebration is cut short as Rebecca’s music cuts off and Jacob Letoa and Jay Reynolds ambush them from behind! The fans are going wild with boos as Dan and Roxanne slide back in the ring and they all go at stomping out Wilmer and Rebecca!
Steve White: Wait! No! No! Dammit no! The entire Age of Fall are out here tonight and it’s an ambush on Wilmer and Rebecca!
Chuck Thompson: Wilmer and Rebecca are fighting back though!
Meanwhile, Roxanne brandished a black metal baseball bat, her eyes gleaming with malice as she advanced on Wilmer, who stood up groggily! With a savage swing, Roxanne brought the bat crashing down on Wilmer's shoulder, eliciting a gasp of agony from the Wacky One! Jay Reynolds and Jacob Letoa joined in the assault, their fists raining down on Rebecca and Wilmer! The crowd erupted into a frenzy of protest, their shouts drowned out by the sounds of violence echoing throughout the arena. The Age of Fall lay a beat down and ambush on Rebecca and Wilmer.
Steve White: The numbers game and some weapons put Wilmer and Rebecca down!
Chuck Thompson: This is hard to watch! Fuck these guys!
With Rebecca and Wilmer beaten down, Dan Anderson seized the moment, dragging Rebecca towards the ropes as Roxanne and the others held Wilmer in place against the ropes, preventing him from intervening. With a sadistic grin, Dan positioned Rebecca's head against the steel chair, preparing to take her out! Wilmer struggled against his captors, his heart pounding with desperation as he watched helplessly, his mind racing with thoughts of how to save his partner. But his efforts were in vain as Dan Anderson delivered the devastating curbstomp, driving Rebecca's skull into the unforgiving steel chair of the ring with a sickening thud!
Steve White: NO! BRUTAL! Curbstomp into the damn chair from Dan to Rebecca and they made Wilmer watch!
Chuck Thompson: Just sickening! The Age of Fall have gone too far tonight and Dan Anderson looks proud of himself!

Dan Anderson: Let this go out to the whole of EHWF! Mayhem and Chaos. Every competitor and management. The fans in the stands and those watching at home! TONIGHT The Age of Fall don’t take no more shit! We’ll keep taking out everyone at any time we see fit until we get what we want and what we want is RESPECT!
The fans boo loudly and belt the ring with garbage as The Age of Fall celebrates over Wilmer and Rebecca’s bodies as we fade out backstage.
Mayhem cuts to Chelsea LeClair and the EHWF Jr. Heavyweight Champion is absolutely not in the best mood at the moment. She’s thinking about Retribution and the match that she found herself in and that’s largely got her in a down mood. She’s doing the best that she can to think ahead to what is coming up, but her body language is indicating that she isn’t looking forward to this as she begins to speak.
Chelsea LeClair: Retribution… not fun…
I had plans to enter that Royale later and see if I could pull through and win that. I had plans to win against Casey Holliday considering we have had a burgeoning rivalry over the last few months, almost a year at this point. Neither thing happened. I mean, I didn’t lose the match. Nobody did. But at the same time, that wasn’t a match that was a fun affair at all. I mean, I ended up with a partner that I don’t even want to be around, that I could never like, and someone that is a rotting cancer on this business
But I guess if there were any positives to take away from this it’s that Casey didn’t get to compete in that Royale either.
And I thought to myself that at the very least, I was done being around that toxic person…
But then I learned about what is coming up tonight and…
Chelsea takes a pause as she lets out an annoyed sigh. She even adds an eye roll at this as she is making it quite obvious that she wants nothing to do with Amanda Fien and would rather focus her energies elsewhere.
Chelsea LeClair: …I can’t stand this. I can’t stand HER. She’s a truly ugly person on the inside and I’ve already gone into why I don’t like her.
I have to focus on everything that I need to do to stay on top of my game especially with the big one in Final Destination coming up. Our opponents are going to be people that never take a day off as you would expect with anyone with the last name Rissi. I have respect for both of them and that especially goes for Joanna who has been one of the few people that have been supportive of me in this company and have actually meant it. Don’t take how I feel about my partner in concept only for granted and don’t take it like a sign of weakness.
I’ve been able to pull my way out of this before throughout my career and I am confident that even with this, I am still going to find a way. I am not about to leave the door open for someone else to walk in and take this from me. I have done nothing but fight with all of the passion and all of the fire in my heart to be the best that I can be in this company from the moment I got here. I had to deal with a treacherous journey to get there.
Even before I walked in here, I’ve got to be honest… things weren’t going well for me in my career. I was struggling to find my place just like that cancer I have to team up with clearly has for years, but unlike her, I didn’t just cave into my insecurities. I fought and I kept coming back no matter how hard things got and the thing is, I WILL get to Final Destination with this championship and more importantly, I will LEAVE that event STILL with this championship. I’ve come too far to be anchored by a toxic cancer and to let someone like that control my mood.
‘Hell with that…
Hell with anyone in this company taking advantage of something silly like that.
I’ve been nothing but a winner and I’ve been able to find a way through every obstacle for a reason and this is NOT the time to let this slip away. So to the Rissis on the other side, you’re going to have to basically kill me to win this match. I’m still pissed off from all the Retribution happenings and I hate that I have to take it out on people that I have respect for, but that’s unfortunately how it goes sometimes.
This is where I step up and shine just like I have time after time here so far…
Chelsea angrily leaves the room and then the scene fades out.
We cut to the ring where Illa Isabella is waiting with a mic.
Illa Isabella: This following tag team contest is set for one single fall!
Azzurra Rissi's music hits and the fans get up and start making some noise. Azzurra comes out and looks either side of the stage first before making their way down the ramp and to the ring. They get up the steel steps and look out at the fans before they get into the ring and raise their arms while they wait for the match to begin.
Illa Isabella: Introducing First… Azzurra Rissi!
The opening of 'Be Right Here' by Kungs hits the speakers as the arena dims leaving orange and green lights strobbed throughout. The fans cheer as Joanna steps out from behind the curtain. Standing in the center of the ramp she raises her arms to the cheering fans!
Walking down the ramp, she runs her hand through her hair before tagging some of the fans hands as they reach over the barricade with cheers! The fiery Joanna breaks out into a sprint as the theme reaches it's peak drop on the speakers!
As she walks up the steal steps Joanna has a confident stride as she walks along the apron's edge, wiping her boots off on the apron before entering the ring under the second rope, she stands back up, flipping her hair over her shoulder and performing theatrics in the ring and on the corner before walking to the furthest side of the ring where she warms up for her match.
Illa Isabella: And next… Her partner tonight… Joanna Rissi!
Cold-Blooded by Zayde Wolf kicks in as the fans are booing. Out come Amanda Fien, wearing a black and red cloak over her head (think little red riding hood but darker). She walks to the ring, ignoring the fans that are booing at her and sending her threats, but she ignores them. Amanda rolls into the ring and takes off the cloak in the ring, revealing darker ring attire.
Illa Isabella: And next up… Their opponents… First… Amanda Fein!
"Chelsea" by STEFY hits and the fans cheer as Chelsea LeClair walks through the curtains, poised, confident and determined to make things happen in this match as she begins to walk down the aisle. She soaks in some cheers a bit as she gets to ringside and at this point, she's all business as she slides into the ring. Soaking things in a bit more, she climbs up the corner to the second rope with a smile, a fist raised in the air and a quick point to the crowd before she hops back down to the corner, leans against it and waits for the match to begin.
Illa Isabella: And finally… her partner tonight… She is the EHWF Jr Heavyweight Champion… Chelsea LeClair!

We cut to the ring where Illa Isabella is waiting with a mic.
Illa Isabella: This main event contest is a 10 person Mayhem Battle Royal and it’s for the Vacant EHWF World Championship!
The lights go out in the arena, as a white curtain drops from the ceiling. The music begins to kick in as a woman stands behind it for a moment. The woman then raises her hands to her sides as she begins posing behind the curtain as the lyrics begin.
It's a human sign
When things go wrong
When the scent of her lingers
And temptation's strong
The curtain drops revealing Diana Bellerose standing behind it, with her rookie Anna Ross. Diana steps through putting her hands up by her side, again as Anna steps beside her waving at the fans. Diana slaps her hands down, then lifts the bottom part of her jacket she is wearing, starting to walk down to the ring, Anna follows her sighing a bit, as she reaches out for the fans. Diana ignored her for that one, as she stopped at the bottom of the ramp, looking up into the ring. She points then Anna goes over and climbs up on to the apron and opens the rope as Diana stands there for another moment.
Cold, cold heart
Hardened by you (oh)
Some things lookin' better, baby
Just passin' through (no, no, no, no, no)
Diana then turns to the stairs and goes over to them. She climbs up them, and steps through the waiting ropes, she then poses for a moment walking around the ring, before heading over to the corner climbing up the turnbuckle and flipping her blonde hair. She points to her corner as Anna then moves into it, standing there. Diana then drops her jacket to her, and moves to the middle of the ring to watch for the opponent.
Illa Isabella: Introducing First Up Tonight… The Wild Rose… Diana Bellerose!
The lights go dark as a trio of gongs echo through the arena. As the last one sounds a faint purple spotlight begins to shine down on the top of the entry ramp. A few seconds pass before the opening notes of Mortemia's What Else is There begin to play through the speakers. As the lyrics begin Isabella Thorn steps out from the back with the EHWF Mixed Tag Team Championship gleaming around her waist. Her upper body is covered by a black and purple custom designed kimono/trench coat mix. Down each of the arms are silver and gold lotus petals that catch the purple spotlight shining down on the ramp. Isabella starts down the ramp towards the ring with a determined pace. Once she gets to the ring she climbs up the steps and steps into as the arena lights come back on. With a smirk on her lips Isabella thrusts a fist into the air then lowers it as various colored lotus petals rain upon the fans. As she turns to wait for her opponent's entrances she removes her custom top to reveal a black and silver crop top.
Illa Isabella: And next up… She is one half of the EHWF Mixed Tag Team Champions… Isabella Thorn!
Taking you down plays the arena as the fans give a jaded reaction to the entrance of Ashburn
Gold and blue pyro goes off as David makes his way out on the stage and throws off his robe! He shows off and flexes his muscles on the stage and gets into the crowd then makes his way through the ramp and down to the ring looking calm and cool. Ashburn gets in and raises his arms to the fans and begins to prepare getting himself psyched up for the forth coming match.
Illa Isabella: And making his way to the ring… David Ashburn!
The lights fade out, as a maniacal laugh from Alexandria can be heard right before "No World for Tomorrow" by Coheed & Cambria begins to blare throughout the arena. The lights come back in with a teal hue, as the crowd erupts with boos. Alexandria Kendrick steps out onto the stage, staring down at the ring, refusing to break her focus. Her long, black hair was tied back into a braided ponytail. She wore black compression shorts that ended just below her knees with a teal grim reaper design on the left leg while "Kendrick" in teal font went down her right leg. On her upper torso she wore a similar compression style women's tanktop that clung tightly to her body, to the delight of many in the crowd. She makes her way down the ramp, shaking her wrists and limbering up as she does so. She rolls into the ring underneath the bottom rope, quickly pushing herself up to her feet like a jump, showing off some of her strength. Alex would stand in the middle of the ring, pulling a pair of gloves out from her cleavage and pulling them on, one at a time. They seemed to also have a teal wolf design on each glove. She makes sure her fingers are in tight before pulling the velcro over, tightening the gloves around her wrist before popping her knuckles. She would then suddenly jump forward, placing her right foot on the bottom rope and catching her left foot onto the middle rope while grabbing a hold of the top rope with her left hand. Alex then raises her right fist into the air. "No World for Tomorrow" would slowly begin to fade out. Alex would hop off of the ropes and back into the corner, waiting for the bell to ring.
Illa Isabella: And next up… Alexandria Kendrick!
Drive by Fat Joe hits the PA System and calm blue and green lighting slowly hits the arena as all of the fans go wild with cheers and roars! Arcus' silhouette appears on the stage as he makes his way out. The fans are all going wild and he makes his way down the ramp, slapping hands of the fans before stopping at the bottom. Some blue pyro explodes on the sides of the ramps and when the sparks end, Arcus sprints into the ring and slides in, getting on the ropes and celebrating, waiting for the bell to ring.
Illa Isabella: And making his way to the ring… Arcus D’Rocco!
Soft pink lights begin to flicker around the entrance as the opening guitar riff plays along with the video package on the tron. As the lyrics start, Zoe pushes aside the curtain, walking out slowly with a smirk on her face.
“I’ll stop the whole world
I’ll stop the whole world
From turning us into a monster
And eating us alive”
As the chorus pops, she throws a fist into the air, then makes her way to the ring, sliding under the bottom rope to leap up to her feet and pose in the middle of the ring.
Illa Isabella: Next up… She is the EHWF Hardcore Champion… The Supernova… Zoe McDraven!
Don't Condone by Symba hits the PA System and calm blue and green lighting slowly hits the arena as all of the fans go wild with cheers and roars! Mass Mancini's silhouette appears on the stage as he makes his way out. The fans are all going wild and he makes his way down the ramp, slapping hands of the fans before stopping at the bottom. Some blue pyro explodes on the sides of the ramps and when the sparks end, Mass sprints into the ring and slides in, getting on the ropes and celebrating, waiting for the bell to ring.
Illa Isabella: And making his way to the ring… Mass Mancini!
Aston Martin Truck hits the PA system. The whole arena goes pitch black for a moment but dim blue lights come on and offer some illumination. We see the big silhouette of Domenic Mazzio as he slowly raises his arms up. He walks out onto the stage and the lighting becomes brighter. He raises his arms up two more times then throws them down sending a massive explosion of blue pyro rocketing out of the stage. Mazzio then proceeds down the ramp and shakes hands with the fans. He gets in the ring and takes off his tank top and throws it into the crowd before raising his arms while climbing the turnbuckle.
Illa Isabella: And next up… Mazzio!
Joyride by Tinashe starts to play on the PA system and Thea Nefeli appears in the lights with her fists by her sides and raises them which makes the fans cheer. Thea comes down the ramp and slaps some fans hands while she runs into the ring and looks out at the crowd. She gets on the ropes and leans over on them, raising her arm with the cheering fans. She gets down and waits for her match to start.
Illa Isabella: And making her way to the ring… Thea Nefeli!
The guitar riff to "Werewolf" begins to ripple throughout the arena. Scott Wilson appears on the entrance stage and after a quick glance at the crowd, begins to make his way to ringside. He stops to limber himself up before entering the ring.
Illa Isabella: And finally tonight… Scott Wilson

Mazzio with a devastating punch sends Wilson into the ropes! Wilson can barely stand! He sways from side to side and falls to a knee! He gets up and falls against the adjacent ropes! Mazzio runs to clothesline him over but Wilson pulls the top rope down! Mazzio outsmarts him and stops short! Wilson has to let the ropes back up and stumbles forward! Mazzio presses Wilson up overhead! The fans break out and Mazzio presses Wilson up and throws him to the outside as the fans ERUPT and the arena shakes!
DING DING DING!
Illa Isabella: Here is your winner… and NEW EHWF World Champion… Mazzio!
Steve White: Mazzio does it! Mazzio does it! The fans are watching on in shock as literally no one thought this would happen tonight! Wilson was a favourite! Thea was a favourte! But Mazzio has come away with the win and his 3rd EHWF World Championship reign!
Chuck Thompson: But… The Wilson chants still continue! Mazzio is the new champion but they wanted Wilson to win this one!!
As the dust settled from the amazing championship match, the arena erupted into a deafening roar of celebration as Mazzio, the towering behemoth of a wrestler, stood tall in the center of the ring, clutching the EHWF World Championship belt tightly to his chest. His muscles were pumped, his chest heaving with the exertion as the fans cheered! With his theme music blaring triumphantly through the speakers, Mazzio began to flex and pose, showcasing his immense strength and imposing physique! Thea, making her way down to the ring with a smile on her face and a glint of pride in her eyes.
Steve White: Wilson on the outside disappointed but he has Scorpion to blame for this!
Chuck Thompson: Thea coming out here to celebrate with her husband!
Without hesitation, she threw her arms around Mazzio's neck, pulling him into a passionate embrace as they started to make out in the centre of the ring! The crowd erupted into cheers at the sight of the couple. But amidst the celebration, a discordant note began to sound, as a chorus of boos and jeers rose up from certain sections of the audience. At first, Mazzio paid little heed to the dissenting voices, too caught up in the euphoria of his victory to pay them any mind. But as the chants grew louder and more insistent, a scowl darkened his features, his brow furrowing with frustration and anger. The chants grew in intensity, echoing throughout the arena as the disgruntled fans made their feelings known. "Wilson! Wilson! Wilson!" they shouted, their voices rising in unison as they expressed their disappointment that Scott Wilson, had not emerged victorious.
Steve White: What the heck is going on?! The fans are actually BOOING Mazzio right now and chanting for Wilson!? Did you think you would have seen this?
Chuck Thompson: Not in a million years! Mazzio doesn’t look happy about it though!
The jeers cut through the air like a knife, piercing Mazzio's pride and inflaming his temper as he struggled to maintain his composure in the face of the crowd's hostility. With a growl of frustration, he brushed past Thea and raised the championship up! Wilson who was on the outside floor looked around as Wilson chants just got louder and louder. Mazzio shook his head as Thea tried to calm him down. The fans didn’t want Mazzio to come away with this one. It was clear Scott Wilson was the fan favourite.
Steve White: Mazzio normally a favourite to the fans and normally a calm guy isn’t taking this too well!!
Chuck Thompson: Wilson! Wilson! Wilson!
Wilson looks up at Mazzio in the ring who holds the title belt and looks pissed at the crowds reaction. Wilson looks back at the ramp just above him and sees Scorpion who is seething with rage as Fernandez Gomez holds him back halfway up the ramp!
Steve White: This is all the fault of Scorpion who assaulted Wilson not only in the Retribution Royale but also tonight in this battle royal!
Chuck Thompson: Regardless… Mazzio is the new EHWF World Champion and can’t no one do anything about it!
Steve White: Ladies and Gentlemen! We welcome you to Saturday Night Mayhem LIVE from the Footprint Center here in Phoenix, Arizona!! What an absolutely incredible night we have planned for you all tonight! It’s an insanely sombre night tonight after the tragic death of Sah’ta Thor at Retribution last week but the show must go on and we need a World Champion! With the unfortunate, unexpected and untimely passing of former EHWF World Champion Sah'ta Thor at Retribution - the world is in shock and mourning. It was a tragedy at Retribution and the whole of EHWF has felt it. Tonight, the search for a new EHWF World Champion begins to find someone to pick up where Thor left off. Scott Wilson, the man who was the favourite to win the Retribution Royale but was cost the opportunity gets another huge chance here tonight. David Ashburn and Mass Mancini along with Arcus D'Rocco get their opportunity to prove themselves after working so hard in 2023. Mazzio's presence has already been felt back on Mayhem and he's looking for a 3rd World Championship reign tonight! Isabella Thorn wants to continue her fathers legacy. Joanna, Alexandria and Zoe all want to get their hands on World Championship gold in 2024 and Thea Nefeli, much like Scott Wilson who was victimised by Sah'ta Thor is looking to get that World Championship back and get some retribution and closure of her own! It's 10 of the very best stars in EHWF and the world and they're gonna fight it out to see who becomes the new champion of professional wrestling! Don't miss it!
Chuck Thompson: Chelsea LeClair and Amanda Fien were unable to work together as a decent team at Retribution but luckily for Chelsea, the match ended in a no contest and her streak is still in tact. Tonight management wants to give both women a chance to got at it again as teammates. They'll take on Joanna Rissi and Azzurra Rissi in tag team action but at this time of year and with Final Destination coming up, most of these women including Amanda Fien would be eyeing off Chelsea's prestigious Jr Heavyweight Championship! This match might just be the excuse Amanda needs!
Steve White: It was a MASSIVE return for Wilmer Patacky at Retribution - making a big impact in the match. Ultimately he clashed with Dan Anderson who desperately tried to win the match as well but couldn't get there. Rebecca Delfina had an amazing night, falling short as well but making a huge influence on the match. Tonight, Wilmer and Dan get to settle what they started at Retribution. They go head to head in a mixed tag team match with Roxanne by her brothers side and Rebecca Delfina helping out Wilmer Patacky. The Age of Fall are still claiming they're just getting started in EHWF and will bring pain and torment to anyone who gets in their way of gold!
Chuck Thompson: It's been an insane 15 months for Mark Bladsco - getting unmasked for the first time since he founded EHWF. We thought the psychotic Scorpion had finally transformed his life into the calm, collected and respectful Mark Bladsco. At Retribution Mark Bladsco had a moment of weakness and after getting eliminated, suffered a massive mental breakdown which lead him to steal a play Scorpion mask from a kid at ringside, put it on, rage out and brutally attack Scott Wilson which deeply hurt Scott's chances in the Retribution Royale. After Fernandez Gomez had made light of Mark Bladsco's betterment and transformation months ago, tonight he's decided to put him in a match with Ace Pena to see if he's really changed or if Scorpion is somewhere still inside his head!
Steve White: And we’ll hear from Retribution Royale winner Michael Rissi when he hosts EHWF 360 live on Mayhem tonight!!
Chuck Thompson: I can’t wait for tonight, Steve! Lets start the show!
After Steve and Chuck finish outlining the upcoming show the camera shifts to show the entire EHWF roster from both rosters standing on the stage and ramp with various expressions on their faces. From the gathered roster Astryd Thorn steps forward and walks down the ramp before coming to a stop halfway down it. She has an Empire of Blood shirt on with a black armband on her right arm with the initials "ST" emblazoned on it in dark red. Lifting a microphone to her lips she takes a breath before speaking.
Astryd Thorn: As has been mentioned already tonight's Mayhem is dedicated to the memory of the EHWF's fallen legend Sah'ta Thor. A man who we can all agree polarized reactions with how he did things. Yet, at Retribution a man that showed the true level of his devotion to this company with his final match. However, tonight I have the mixed honor of giving you that man's last words to the EHWF world in the form of a video he recorded before Retribution to be aired now.
With those words Astryd points towards the tron as the arena's lights dim to play a video package.
The tron comes to life with the image of the Empire of Blood flag waving on the screen before fading away to reveal the seated image of Sah'ta Thor seated behind a redwood desk in a familiar office. He was dressed in a t-shirt and jeans and had a strangely somber expression on his face. On the desk rested the polished EHWF World Championship.
Sah'ta Thor: By the time this gets viewed Retribution will have come and gone. As such, the shocking events of that night will be etched into the history books. Yet, I couldn't let my death and the circumstances that led to it go unaddressed. As I sit here recording this last message to the world I know that I won't survive my match at Retribution. You see, I have long dreamed that I would die as a result of my wrestling career. Though, I get ahead of myself at this moment. I need to backtrack a bit before I return to that point.
Thor pauses speaking as he lays his hand on the surface of the championship resting on the desk.
Sah'ta Thor: I will apologize in advance for what might become a boring history lesson, but I assure you it is important. My professional wrestling career began in February 2007 at the age of 42. I was a middle aged man in a young athlete's world. Yet, over the last 17 years I have proved that I could not only hold my own against talent half my age, or younger, but could outlast them. My life experiences tempered my outlook on the wrestling world and to be honest as much as I tried I could never be the shining hero. No being raised as an orphan, due to having his parents be told I had died at birth, set me down a road where I saw the darkness of humanity. That darkness became part of my being though I held on to the light as well.
He taps his fingers along his championship's metallic face while a contemplative expression crosses his lips.
Sah'ta Thor: I feel the need to mention a few things from my early life. First, when I was 16, which was a far different world socially then it is today, I had a week of passion with a woman who was on vacation. After that weekend she went off to get married and I never saw her again. What I didn't know is that she left pregnant and it was only in 2013 that I found out she had given birth to a pair of twins. They are Insidious member Lu Chen and her non-wrestling brother Miles Yamato. Miles owns two corporations in China, one he inherited from the man he knew as his father and the other one he founded. I learned of their existence during an EHFW tour and as they say the rest is history. A history that has had Lu Chen be part of multiple attacks on me in the ring. The most brutal of which left me in a coma for 6 months that resulted in my gaining 50 pounds of body muscle.
Thor moves his hand back and opens the top drawer of his desk. Reaching down he pulls out a glass and bottle of booze from it. With a slight sigh he pours himself a drink.
Sah'ta Thor: Moving on with my journey of life I turned 17 and made my way to Europe after graduating early. The trip there and the following tour was funded by a mix of savings from highschool jobs, working for lodging and rides, and hiking. In August of 1981, I spent some time in rural Poland with a young widow. The fling ended and I moved on with my travels without any regrets. Of course, I learned in 2013 that she had given birth to a set of twins. Thorn Enterprises' Imanov Chovsceh and his twin sister Erika. Imanov has his own story but for the moment let me move on. After leaving the widow I went deeper into the Soviet Union and unfortunately ended up being captured as a spy. Yet instead of being killed I survived two grueling years in a Siberian mining camp. 18 hour work days, minimal food, and an abundance of abusive guards. The camp was shut down through a series of actions that I am am still not entirely sure of but on my release my whip scarred malnourished body was near death.
With a deep breath Thor talks a gulping sip of his drink before continuing on.
Sah'ta Thor: After my rescue I ended up in a German hospital where I spent the second six months of 1985 regaining my health. I won't bore you with the minute details of that stay. However, one thing that I need to relate is the fact my main nurse became my first wife. At the age of 21 the twins Sujir and Astryd were born. I was working on a couple of degrees at a German college and life was amazing as we lived in Stuttgart. Then my wife's mental and emotional demons showed their heads after the twins' birth. My 14 hour long work shifts in the auto factory didn't help one bit. A matter that was only compounded by the appearance of a wandering Romani woman who turned out to be my mother. She revealed that she had been told I was still born and our meeting was by accident. My wife's only solace was her rose garden, a garden that has long since been transplanted into the Castle Thorn grounds. I introduced my family to my mother but my wife didn't like her and after a few days my mother returned to her travels. Adding to the tension between my wife and I was a casual comment I made about another woman's beauty. That was the beginning of the end.
Thor pauses as she takes another drink from his glass.
Sah'ta Thor: My wife became distant over the next year. We ended up moving to Madrid, her hometown, ensuring that her beloved rose garden came with us. I found a job and hoped our relationship would mend. However, a few months after we moved one of her old boyfriends came back into her life. I discovered that they were having an affair one day by walking in on them having sex in our marriage bed while the twins were sleeping. Long story short, the whole thing ended up with my first divorce after she kicked me out. The divorce painted me as the bad guy and she got custody of kids.
With a deep sigh and a shake of his head Thor moves to refill his glass.
Sah'ta Thor: I didn't see the twins for 3 years while I threw myself into my job. I finally had enough and moved back to the Midwest area States in 1991. The change of location and distance allowed me to heal enough to become romantically inclined again. I remarried and after finding out my ex-wife had been committed to a mental hospital was able to get custody of the twins. By the end of the year I was the father to another set of twins. Over a year later a third child followed to my second wife and life was once again going well. At around the same time I met an older man at a local bar who was drinking to remember his lost son. We talked and it turned out the son had been born the same night I had been in the same hospital. Further conversation revealed that he was my father, the man you know as Santara. I introduced him to my family and things were good for some time. Then it all ended as one day I came home from a work trip in early 1995 to find my wife had packed up all her stuff and taken our three kids. Left behind were the 8.5 year old twins from my first marriage, who were visiting their uncle at the time, and divorce papers.
There is a pause as Thor stares into the glass for a moment before taking a deep calming breath.
Sah'ta Thor: The resulting heartbreak and emotional shattering sent me into a self destructive spiral. I had enough mental presence to leave the twins in the care of their uncle to protect them. I spent the next three years wandering through post Soviet Union era Europe doing my best to regain my happiness. By the time 1999 rolled around I had found another woman to entrust my shattered heart to and I entered my third marriage. Yes, I know given my track record I should have been of the mindset to avoid the institution. Of course, I realize this was just my inner optimism and hope shining through. A year later wife number three gave birth to a set of twins. Now keep in mind I hadn't seen my other kids in 4 years at this point. Sujir and Astryd's uncle found me and let me know they were back in the care of their mother. In the end I got back in contact with her and started down a road that eventually changed my life. You see, in contacting my first ex-wife our feelings rekindled and the long buried emotions came back to life. In less than a year my third marriage came to an end. Yet, this time it was me who walked away. I ended up leaving my several month old twins and wife behind in June of 2000. Yes I know that turned out to be a bad decision in the end but to be honest I wasn't thinking rationally at the time. After all, I had the chance to get back with the first love of my life.
A look of regret and remorse crosses Thor's face as he takes another drink.
Sah'ta Thor: Yet over the next year it became painfully obvious that my hopes of remarrying my first wife were pointless. It turned out her issues were too unmanageable. She was promiscuous and was often out with other men even while I was trying to repair our relationship. Which coupled with her mental issues made things unsustainable between us. So to protect myself I walked away leaving our teenage twins in her care. I knew it was a bad choice but honestly in mind at the time it was the best of option of a several messed up ones.
Thor stops speaking for a moment as he sets the glass down.
Sah'ta Thor: I would love to say that I know how to survive the next 5 years of my life but I can't. In that time I threw myself into university and ended up with three degrees. I got a dual Master's in Psychology and Sociology then went back to get. Bachelor's in Business Administration. Yet, that wasn't the only thing that those years were filled with. It seems I had given up on my life and was just existing. As a result I was living in a barely legal apartment and was a drug addict. The awakening that gave me this realization in the start of 2005 led to the discovery that I had somehow been part of an underground fight ring for a year. It was a highly illegal and brutal fight ring. Yet, for the first time I could remember I felt powerful as I beat the living shit out of the men pit against me. I became aware of how much I enjoyed my inner savageness and the control I felt as a result. It turned out that my year in the fight ring had revealed my inner monster and earned me respectful deference. These resulting addiction to the feelings of savagery and respectful treatment were overwhelming. Though it all came crashing down as I found a more brutal monster who left me in the hospital.
An almost amused chuckle passes Thor's lips before he continues speaking.
Sah'ta Thor: Here I was in the spring of 2005 forced to pull my life back together after rock bottom. I finally healed enough to return to fighting but the underground ring had been shut down by the police. So, here I was a 40 year old man who had learned how much I loved to fight. Yet most legal avenues of fighting were almost impossible for a man my age to get into. I finally found a professional wrestling school willing to train me. Though to be fair, the fact I came with a bunch of money and could help out with the business side things probably helped in the end. What followed was a grueling 22 months of training which I endured and thrived on as a result of my fighting spirit.
Thor shakes his head before reaching back over to touch the EHWF World Championship.
Sah'ta Thor: Now I hope you understand the years that lead to my professional debut in February of 2007. I had a supernatural inspired character at the time in the style of early Undertaker. I would love to say that my career was instantly a hit. However, as became the hallmark of my career I became the stepping stone for management favorites. However, even though I earned the reputation for being a hardcore wrestler who was willing to shed blood. Of course the disrespect from management led me to wonder about my place in the industry but luckily I had an open contract with that first company. As a result I made my way to other companies that I was able to find a place in. One in which I found Sujir and Astryd working for as an up and coming tag team. I hadn't seen them in 7.5 years so the reunion was interesting but at the moment I should move on. At the same time my father decided I had matured enough to be cut into the family fortune and he became involved in the wrestling world himself. I found my half-sister Velvet in another wrestling company and finally at the age of 43 I had a family around me.
Another short breath as Thor lifts his hand from the title and he returns it to the glass. Lift it up and he takes another drink to wet his throat.
Sah'ta Thor: The money from my part of the family fortune went to the formation of the Imperial Enterprises. Additionally, I formed the Empire of Blood with several other outcast members of the wrestling company I worked with my twins in. In fact, one of those wrestlers was Konrad Raab's wife Fizz. The Empire of Blood evolved and expanded to multiple companies eventually ending up in EHWF. I won't bore you with the early years of my career but I will mention a few highlights. First being that rescued and adopted 30 children after breaking up a child sex traffic ring. The details of which were revealed when Isabella made her reveal last year. Another thing was that I ended up meeting the woman who would become my fourth wife. She was a fellow member of the roster in one of the companies I worked for before coming to EHWF. We have been married since 2010 and have our own set of twins. Though she has her own storied and accomplishment filled career she has long since left the wrestling industry to become a fashion designer. In fact, I am proud to say several of the outfits I have worn in promos and in the ring have been her creations.
Thor's hand shakes a bit before he takes another drink before setting back down.
Sah'ta Thor: Yet, as much as I would like to regale you with more of my career, I know I have reached the point of near rambling. So let's face forward a bit shall we. I sit here in my third reign as the EHFW Mayhem World Champion and am about to defend it against my adopted daughter. She is only 19 but it will be her first shot at a world championship and I am proud to be part of that moment. Yet, for all of that the fact remains that as you all know I am dying. There is no sugar coating that fact and this last year it has become increasingly obvious that my condition is getting worse bit by bit. Thing is I have had this condition since 2018 though it didn't become clearly fully apparent until mid 2020. Now I have all the possible treatments, even a couple experimental ones that in the end worked for a while. Though when they stopped working that was it the timer on things was reignited. About seven months back I hosted an edition of The Bloodworks where I laid it all on the table. Let me remind you of a few things from that night. First and foremost is the fact that Senor Gomez KNEW of my medical condition before I made my return to EHWF at Retribution 2022. In fact, we made plans around it that as you are watching this will have been put into place. I also revealed that we had made a deal but never went into the details of that.
Here Thor tilts his head to the side with an amused smirk on his lips before chuckling slightly.
Sah'ta Thor: Now that I am dead I feel no obligation to not share what that deal was. You see, I came back to the EHWF for three reasons. The first was to support Isabella as she became a top tier talent here. The second was as I said on The Bloodworks was to help Gomez remove the stagnation that had taken hold of the Mayhem World Title picture in the forms of Brandon Bash and Micheal Rissi. Sure I used some underhand tactics along the way to becoming the champion myself but just take a look and how things are now as a result. You can't argue that things have been boring or stale since cashed in my Feast or Fired Briefcase. Yet, the third reason I came back was to help elevate the company to a new level of competitiveness. Again you can't argue that the competitive edge has been lacking since my return. In fact, if you look at the entire company things have gotten more interesting. Sure I became a thorn in the side of Senor Gomez's plans for things but in the end I lived up to my end of the deal we made. That deal was that I would have the last match of my wrestling career inside an EHWF ring. Though I am not entirely sure he expected it to turn out the way it did. However, no one can say I didn't fulfill my side of that deal. A deal that saw me have a lengthy reign as Mayhem World Champion while being able to live dream moments with my daughter.
Thor grabs his glass and downs its contents.
Sah'ta Thor: With that being said I need to circle back to the fact that I knew I was going to die at Retribution. You see besides the dreams I could feel my mind and sense of self slipping away more and more each day. Ever since I made the deal with Thorn Enterprises for the Ace's Amulet which resulted in me regaining the EHWF World Title from Thea. Of course the world thinks it was all my idea but what can I say I just took advantage of a situation that made itself known to me. Though I am sure Ace is quite happy with how things turned out given how Retribution turned out. After all, he got my blessing to marry Isabella which happened over the holidays here in Vegas. Which is neither here nor there at this moment. No, I was telling you how I knew I would die at Retribution. Thing is I made a promise to myself that I would die before I lost my mind and my sense of self. Even now I can feel slipping into the abyss, so I sought out Death on my terms fighting until the very end. In the end my death is my final gift to the EHWF and the entire wrestling industry.
With those words Thor lifts the EHWF World Championship belt from the desk and holds it up with a smile on his lips.
Sah'ta Thor: In the end I elevated this title to a new level and helped to revive the division. As was the goal of my entire career I raised others to new levels of greatness. I will tell you now that many of those who have become Hall of Famers in the year since EHWF came back in 2012 went through me at some point. And in my last I know for a fact there are a couple future Hall of Fame inductees in the group of opponents I faced in the last 17 months. Another thing to consider is that for all my issues with management and at times the rest of the roster I found ways to endure when many disappeared when the going got tough. Admittedly I did have stints away from the business to deal with my mental health and other issues over the years but in the end I adapted and in the end went on out my shield at the top of the game.
Slowly Thor slings the EHWF Mayhem Title over his right shoulder as he gives an amused laugh.
Sah'ta Thor: I know that I have been labeled and viewed as a villain most if not all over my career by management and the rest of the roster. I even know that has a lot to do with the way I presented myself as a character in both word and deed. Yet, something that needs to be remembered is that I took on the roles that were needed to keep things running. As many only wanted to be the hero of the story that meant I became the villain by default. While many people shy from their flaws and darker nature I embraced them. It was my way of accepting and dealing with my traumas. Though I will admit the journey came with its own set of traumas, what story doesn't? Now that I am gone I wonder who will step up to fill the role I served? I have to wonder who will become the villain that rallies the rest of the roster to great heights even while being seen and nothing more than the enemy? I am sure in the coming months that question will begin to be answered but to me it is a moot point. With that, I bid you all farewell and good luck.
With those words Thor hand hand drops to rest on the title belt lightly caressing it while the tron fades to nothing.
Sah'ta Thor: By the time this gets viewed Retribution will have come and gone. As such, the shocking events of that night will be etched into the history books. Yet, I couldn't let my death and the circumstances that led to it go unaddressed. As I sit here recording this last message to the world I know that I won't survive my match at Retribution. You see, I have long dreamed that I would die as a result of my wrestling career. Though, I get ahead of myself at this moment. I need to backtrack a bit before I return to that point.

Sah'ta Thor: I didn't see the twins for 3 years while I threw myself into my job. I finally had enough and moved back to the Midwest area States in 1991. The change of location and distance allowed me to heal enough to become romantically inclined again. I remarried and after finding out my ex-wife had been committed to a mental hospital was able to get custody of the twins. By the end of the year I was the father to another set of twins. Over a year later a third child followed to my second wife and life was once again going well. At around the same time I met an older man at a local bar who was drinking to remember his lost son. We talked and it turned out the son had been born the same night I had been in the same hospital. Further conversation revealed that he was my father, the man you know as Santara. I introduced him to my family and things were good for some time. Then it all ended as one day I came home from a work trip in early 1995 to find my wife had packed up all her stuff and taken our three kids. Left behind were the 8.5 year old twins from my first marriage, who were visiting their uncle at the time, and divorce papers.
There is a pause as Thor stares into the glass for a moment before taking a deep calming breath.
Sah'ta Thor: The resulting heartbreak and emotional shattering sent me into a self destructive spiral. I had enough mental presence to leave the twins in the care of their uncle to protect them. I spent the next three years wandering through post Soviet Union era Europe doing my best to regain my happiness. By the time 1999 rolled around I had found another woman to entrust my shattered heart to and I entered my third marriage. Yes, I know given my track record I should have been of the mindset to avoid the institution. Of course, I realize this was just my inner optimism and hope shining through. A year later wife number three gave birth to a set of twins. Now keep in mind I hadn't seen my other kids in 4 years at this point. Sujir and Astryd's uncle found me and let me know they were back in the care of their mother. In the end I got back in contact with her and started down a road that eventually changed my life. You see, in contacting my first ex-wife our feelings rekindled and the long buried emotions came back to life. In less than a year my third marriage came to an end. Yet, this time it was me who walked away. I ended up leaving my several month old twins and wife behind in June of 2000. Yes I know that turned out to be a bad decision in the end but to be honest I wasn't thinking rationally at the time. After all, I had the chance to get back with the first love of my life.
A look of regret and remorse crosses Thor's face as he takes another drink.
Sah'ta Thor: Yet over the next year it became painfully obvious that my hopes of remarrying my first wife were pointless. It turned out her issues were too unmanageable. She was promiscuous and was often out with other men even while I was trying to repair our relationship. Which coupled with her mental issues made things unsustainable between us. So to protect myself I walked away leaving our teenage twins in her care. I knew it was a bad choice but honestly in mind at the time it was the best of option of a several messed up ones.
Thor stops speaking for a moment as he sets the glass down.
Sah'ta Thor: I would love to say that I know how to survive the next 5 years of my life but I can't. In that time I threw myself into university and ended up with three degrees. I got a dual Master's in Psychology and Sociology then went back to get. Bachelor's in Business Administration. Yet, that wasn't the only thing that those years were filled with. It seems I had given up on my life and was just existing. As a result I was living in a barely legal apartment and was a drug addict. The awakening that gave me this realization in the start of 2005 led to the discovery that I had somehow been part of an underground fight ring for a year. It was a highly illegal and brutal fight ring. Yet, for the first time I could remember I felt powerful as I beat the living shit out of the men pit against me. I became aware of how much I enjoyed my inner savageness and the control I felt as a result. It turned out that my year in the fight ring had revealed my inner monster and earned me respectful deference. These resulting addiction to the feelings of savagery and respectful treatment were overwhelming. Though it all came crashing down as I found a more brutal monster who left me in the hospital.
An almost amused chuckle passes Thor's lips before he continues speaking.
Sah'ta Thor: Here I was in the spring of 2005 forced to pull my life back together after rock bottom. I finally healed enough to return to fighting but the underground ring had been shut down by the police. So, here I was a 40 year old man who had learned how much I loved to fight. Yet most legal avenues of fighting were almost impossible for a man my age to get into. I finally found a professional wrestling school willing to train me. Though to be fair, the fact I came with a bunch of money and could help out with the business side things probably helped in the end. What followed was a grueling 22 months of training which I endured and thrived on as a result of my fighting spirit.
Thor shakes his head before reaching back over to touch the EHWF World Championship.
Sah'ta Thor: Now I hope you understand the years that lead to my professional debut in February of 2007. I had a supernatural inspired character at the time in the style of early Undertaker. I would love to say that my career was instantly a hit. However, as became the hallmark of my career I became the stepping stone for management favorites. However, even though I earned the reputation for being a hardcore wrestler who was willing to shed blood. Of course the disrespect from management led me to wonder about my place in the industry but luckily I had an open contract with that first company. As a result I made my way to other companies that I was able to find a place in. One in which I found Sujir and Astryd working for as an up and coming tag team. I hadn't seen them in 7.5 years so the reunion was interesting but at the moment I should move on. At the same time my father decided I had matured enough to be cut into the family fortune and he became involved in the wrestling world himself. I found my half-sister Velvet in another wrestling company and finally at the age of 43 I had a family around me.
Another short breath as Thor lifts his hand from the title and he returns it to the glass. Lift it up and he takes another drink to wet his throat.
Sah'ta Thor: The money from my part of the family fortune went to the formation of the Imperial Enterprises. Additionally, I formed the Empire of Blood with several other outcast members of the wrestling company I worked with my twins in. In fact, one of those wrestlers was Konrad Raab's wife Fizz. The Empire of Blood evolved and expanded to multiple companies eventually ending up in EHWF. I won't bore you with the early years of my career but I will mention a few highlights. First being that rescued and adopted 30 children after breaking up a child sex traffic ring. The details of which were revealed when Isabella made her reveal last year. Another thing was that I ended up meeting the woman who would become my fourth wife. She was a fellow member of the roster in one of the companies I worked for before coming to EHWF. We have been married since 2010 and have our own set of twins. Though she has her own storied and accomplishment filled career she has long since left the wrestling industry to become a fashion designer. In fact, I am proud to say several of the outfits I have worn in promos and in the ring have been her creations.
Thor's hand shakes a bit before he takes another drink before setting back down.
Sah'ta Thor: Yet, as much as I would like to regale you with more of my career, I know I have reached the point of near rambling. So let's face forward a bit shall we. I sit here in my third reign as the EHFW Mayhem World Champion and am about to defend it against my adopted daughter. She is only 19 but it will be her first shot at a world championship and I am proud to be part of that moment. Yet, for all of that the fact remains that as you all know I am dying. There is no sugar coating that fact and this last year it has become increasingly obvious that my condition is getting worse bit by bit. Thing is I have had this condition since 2018 though it didn't become clearly fully apparent until mid 2020. Now I have all the possible treatments, even a couple experimental ones that in the end worked for a while. Though when they stopped working that was it the timer on things was reignited. About seven months back I hosted an edition of The Bloodworks where I laid it all on the table. Let me remind you of a few things from that night. First and foremost is the fact that Senor Gomez KNEW of my medical condition before I made my return to EHWF at Retribution 2022. In fact, we made plans around it that as you are watching this will have been put into place. I also revealed that we had made a deal but never went into the details of that.
Here Thor tilts his head to the side with an amused smirk on his lips before chuckling slightly.
Sah'ta Thor: Now that I am dead I feel no obligation to not share what that deal was. You see, I came back to the EHWF for three reasons. The first was to support Isabella as she became a top tier talent here. The second was as I said on The Bloodworks was to help Gomez remove the stagnation that had taken hold of the Mayhem World Title picture in the forms of Brandon Bash and Micheal Rissi. Sure I used some underhand tactics along the way to becoming the champion myself but just take a look and how things are now as a result. You can't argue that things have been boring or stale since cashed in my Feast or Fired Briefcase. Yet, the third reason I came back was to help elevate the company to a new level of competitiveness. Again you can't argue that the competitive edge has been lacking since my return. In fact, if you look at the entire company things have gotten more interesting. Sure I became a thorn in the side of Senor Gomez's plans for things but in the end I lived up to my end of the deal we made. That deal was that I would have the last match of my wrestling career inside an EHWF ring. Though I am not entirely sure he expected it to turn out the way it did. However, no one can say I didn't fulfill my side of that deal. A deal that saw me have a lengthy reign as Mayhem World Champion while being able to live dream moments with my daughter.
Thor grabs his glass and downs its contents.
Sah'ta Thor: With that being said I need to circle back to the fact that I knew I was going to die at Retribution. You see besides the dreams I could feel my mind and sense of self slipping away more and more each day. Ever since I made the deal with Thorn Enterprises for the Ace's Amulet which resulted in me regaining the EHWF World Title from Thea. Of course the world thinks it was all my idea but what can I say I just took advantage of a situation that made itself known to me. Though I am sure Ace is quite happy with how things turned out given how Retribution turned out. After all, he got my blessing to marry Isabella which happened over the holidays here in Vegas. Which is neither here nor there at this moment. No, I was telling you how I knew I would die at Retribution. Thing is I made a promise to myself that I would die before I lost my mind and my sense of self. Even now I can feel slipping into the abyss, so I sought out Death on my terms fighting until the very end. In the end my death is my final gift to the EHWF and the entire wrestling industry.
With those words Thor lifts the EHWF World Championship belt from the desk and holds it up with a smile on his lips.
Sah'ta Thor: In the end I elevated this title to a new level and helped to revive the division. As was the goal of my entire career I raised others to new levels of greatness. I will tell you now that many of those who have become Hall of Famers in the year since EHWF came back in 2012 went through me at some point. And in my last I know for a fact there are a couple future Hall of Fame inductees in the group of opponents I faced in the last 17 months. Another thing to consider is that for all my issues with management and at times the rest of the roster I found ways to endure when many disappeared when the going got tough. Admittedly I did have stints away from the business to deal with my mental health and other issues over the years but in the end I adapted and in the end went on out my shield at the top of the game.
Slowly Thor slings the EHWF Mayhem Title over his right shoulder as he gives an amused laugh.
Sah'ta Thor: I know that I have been labeled and viewed as a villain most if not all over my career by management and the rest of the roster. I even know that has a lot to do with the way I presented myself as a character in both word and deed. Yet, something that needs to be remembered is that I took on the roles that were needed to keep things running. As many only wanted to be the hero of the story that meant I became the villain by default. While many people shy from their flaws and darker nature I embraced them. It was my way of accepting and dealing with my traumas. Though I will admit the journey came with its own set of traumas, what story doesn't? Now that I am gone I wonder who will step up to fill the role I served? I have to wonder who will become the villain that rallies the rest of the roster to great heights even while being seen and nothing more than the enemy? I am sure in the coming months that question will begin to be answered but to me it is a moot point. With that, I bid you all farewell and good luck.
With those words Thor hand hand drops to rest on the title belt lightly caressing it while the tron fades to nothing.
We shift back to the ring where all the members of both Insidious and Thorn Enterprises were gathered. Each member wears an Empire of Blood shirt. On their right arms was a black armband with the initials "ST"emblazoned on it in dark red. Currently we see Isabella Thorn standing in the center of the ring with a microphone in hand. After a few seconds she brings it to her lips before starting to speak.
Isabella Thorn: We just heard what my father had to say about his life and career. Yet, he didn't go into the details of his accolades or accomplishments. Though he did touch on that in a video that got posted to the EHWF website before this addition of Mayhem. However, let me give you a run down for those who haven't seen that yet. You see, for all the doubt and second guessing that he received in his career my father had 48 different total title reigns and 5 Hall of Fame inductions. Admittedly, much of the underdog feelings that my father expressed over the course of his career were a result of his own mental health demons. However, of his 48 title reigns 12 were world title level belts. The rest were broken down with 9 hardcore belts, 6 international belts, 2 regional belts, 2 ironman belts, 6 Cruiserweight belts, 3 television titles, 7 tag team titles, and 1 24/7 title. Of those 48 championships Sah'ta Thor earned 9 of them here in EHWF as well as one of his Hall of Fame rings. Of his 9 EHWF championships 4 of them were World Titles, 2 Hardcore titles, the first North American title reign, and 1 tag team title run.
Isabella falls silent lowering the microphone before stepping back to stand next to her husband Ace. As she steps back Sujir steps into the center of the ring with the microphone in his hand.
Sujir Thorn: Yet, another major thing that many people may not know is that my father is that during his career he competed in many innovative hardcore matches. Over the years he competed in 24 or more unique types of cage matches making his most common hardcore type. I know that most people won't understand how a thing like that can impact a wrestler's career but it matters. Yet I digress will let others share some thoughts so the show can go on.
Sujir steps back and Aaron Frederick Hudson steps forward to replace him in the center of the ring.
Aaron Frederick Hudson: Another big part of who Sah'ta Thor was as a person revolved around his family. As he revealed he had many issues throughout his life when it came to his family life. Yet ever since I met him he was working hard to improve those relationships. Even when it came to the conflicts we had in the ring over the years were for show even while dealing with deep seated issues. With that in mind he leaves behind an extended family containing 13 children, 30 adopted children, and 6 grandchildren. There are several friends who were close enough to be considered family but for the sake of this aren't included in what I am saying. Sah'ta Thor was the mentor and father figure I needed over the years and will be greatly missed.
There is a pause as Aaron takes a breath before giving a slight head shake. He steps back to where Lu Chen and Sujir were standing. A few seconds later Imanov steps forward to the center of the ring.
Imanov Chovsceh: Throughout my father's career he made no secret of the issues he had. In fact, he openly embraced the fact that he was a flawed being. In fact, if you take a look at his ring monikers and his actions there is no doubt of this. While many people would see this as his being an evil man the reality is far from the truth. You see it was his acceptance of his inner darkness that helped him keep from being swallowed by it. Anyone who actually knew him outside the context of wrestling would know that my father was one of the most caring men you could have ever met. His support and love helped me overcome my alcohol addiction. There are many out there with similar stories but for now he would want us to get on with the show.
Imanov steps back to the ring ropes as he looks around the others to see who else would step forward to speak. After a few seconds it is clear that no one else was going to speak so Isabella once more returns to the center of the ring where she lifts the microphone once more. She turns to look up the ramp way as she gives her arm a wave over the gathering in the ring.
Isabella Thorn: We are my father's legacy. Not just those of us standing here in this ring but everyone who is currently a part of the EHWF today. Many of you won't want to accept that reality but the reality is that the EHWF wouldn't be here today if it hadn't been for what Sah'ta Thor did over the years. His actions while often viewed in the lens of his being a bad guy were what were needed most at that moment. So again I say we are his legacy. He wanted the best for the EHWF and for it to grow to the best it could become. Let us all take what he did in his life as an example of how we can continue what he started. He was always striving to get those around him to improve in and out of the ring. I hope that we can continue that here in the EHWF in the years to come regardless of how you felt at Sah'ta Thor.
With those words she falls silent a moment before giving a slight shake of her head.
Isabella Thorn: However, the show must go on. Which means at this time I would welcome you all to join us for a moment of silence and the ten bell salute to honor the fallen EHWF Hall of Famer and former World Champion Sah'ta Thor.
As she falls silent the lights dim as a highlight video of Sah'ta Thor's entire EHWF Career begins to play on the tron. Clips of his every title match and other top moments are shown ending with his fall from the cage at Retribution. After the highlight package plays the lights slowly come back up as the ring bell begins to toll ten times. Each toll is a few seconds apart until the final one echos through the arena. As the last bell rings out an image appears on the tron showing an image of Sah'ta Thor with the years of his birth and death below it. We cut to a commercial break on this image.
We cut to the ring where Illa Isabella is waiting with a mic.
Illa Isabella: This opening contest tonight is set for one fall!
Mark Bladsco comes out looking a little dishevelled, waddling out and adjusting his glasses as he gets to the steel steps and smacks them! He gets inside the ring and looks around at the fans. He looks like he’s doing breathing exercises in the corner as he waits for his opponent to appear to start the match.
Illa Isabella: Introducing First… Mark Bladsco!
The PA System hits with the opening of OTW as the fans all pick up in the stands and begin to cheer. As the lighting darkens and styles and the smoke goes off, Ace Pena emerges onto the stage and looks out at all of the cheering and screaming fans! He holds his arms out before taking his sunglasses off and with a smile, makes his way down the ramp. He high fives some of the fans cheering for him in the crowd before sprinting down the remainder of the ramp and sliding into the ring. He looks out at the fans, getting up onto the turnbuckle, raising his arms and celebrating his arrival as he gets off of the ropes and makes his way into the middle of the ring, stretching and loosening up.
Illa Isabella: And next… His opponent… He is one half of the EHWF Mixed Tag Team Champions… Ace Pena!
DING DING DING!
Match #1: Ace Pena vs. Mark Bladsco
Ace Pena starts with lightning-fast moves, ducking under Mark Bladsco's attempted grapple and delivering a quick series of kicks to his midsection. Bladsco stumbles back but quickly recovers, using his brute strength to grab Pena and toss him across the ring! Pena lands gracefully on his feet, showing off his agility as he bounces off the ropes and leaps towards Bladsco with a flying crossbody. But Bladsco catches him effortlessly, hoisting Pena up and slamming him down with a powerful spinebuster! As Pena writhes on the mat, Bladsco looks frustrated and tries to calm himself as he talks to himself in the corner while Pena gets a chance to recover on the mat.
Steve White: Mark Bladsco for a number of weeks had that internal conflict with the Scorpion mask that was spurred on and fuelled by Fernandez Gomez which lead to him brutally assaulting Scott Wilson during the Retribution Royale when he was eliminated by him but it looks like Bladsco is back on track now!
Chuck Thompson: He’s fought hard not to go back to Scorpion!
Pena isn't out of the fight yet. With a burst of energy, he rolls out of the way as Bladsco attempts a massive leg drop, leaving the powerhouse stunned! The momentum shifts as Pena takes to the skies once again, hitting Bladsco with a stunning shooting star press! But before he can capitalise, Bladsco rolls through and catches, showcasing his raw strength with a devastating powerslam as the fans go WILD! Both wrestlers lie on the mat, exhausted but determined. The crowd roars with anticipation as the match hangs in the balance, neither competitor willing to back down! Bladsco punches the mat and roars as he gets up! Ace gets up slowly and Bladsco levels Ace with a hugging clothesline! Ace is up and Bladsco hits Ace with a right hand the another then another then another! Ace hits the ropes and Bladsco hugs Ace and plants him with a belly to belly square on the mat as the fans go wild!
Steve White: Ace with some flashy offense but Bladsco is too strong!
Chuck Thompson: A lot of power there from Bladsco!
With the crowd on their feet, Ace Pena and Mark Bladsco slowly rise to their feet, each showing signs of wear from the intense back-and-forth battle! Pena, fuelled by the adrenaline rush, charges at Bladsco, delivering a flurry of quick strikes to his opponent's chest and head. But Bladsco, absorbs the punishment and retaliates with a thunderous clothesline that sends Pena crashing to the mat once again! Bladsco grabs Pena by the hair, pulling him up with ease, and sets him up for his signature finishing move, the Bladsco Bomb. Just as Bladsco lifts Pena into the air, ready to execute the devastating manoeuvre, Pena manages to wriggle free, slipping out of Bladsco's grasp. With lightning speed, Pena capitalises on the opening, executing a breathtaking hurricanrana that sends Bladsco tumbling out of the ring as the fans go wild! Ace is bleeding from his mouth and nose as he crawls to the ropes in pain! Bladsco gets up using the barricade and the fans get super loud!
Steve White: Ace getting the upper hand now!
Chuck Thompson: Bladsco outside the ring and into that barricade as Ace gets control of this one slowly!
!As Bladsco staggers outside the ring, he catches sight of a fan holding his old Scorpion mask merchandise in the front row. His eyes widen, a mix of nostalgia and anger swirling within him. Without a second thought, he snatches the mask from the fan's hands, a fire reigniting within him. Meanwhile, Fernandez Gomez, emerges at the bottom of the stage, a wicked smirk playing on his lips. He yells out to Bladsco, urging him to put on the mask and embrace his past as Scorpion once again.
Fernandez Gomez: C’mon! C’mon you fucking pussy! Put the mask on! Do it! You know you want to! How good did it feel to be yourself again at Retribution, Scorpion! Put the fucking mask on and show me what you’ve got!
Steve White: What the fuck is going on! Bladsco going nuts when he saw that Scorpion mask again, bringing up memories of his past like last time at Retribution and Fernandez is egging him on!
Chuck Thompson: This is sickening! Scorpion wrestling with himself right now!
Bladsco hesitates, torn between his desire to reclaim his former glory and his current identity as Mark Bladsco. The internal conflict rages within him as he clutches the mask tightly in his hand. But as Ace Pena slowly gets up using the ropes, Bladsco makes his decision. With a determined expression, he dons the Scorpion mask, the embodiment of his past persona. He huffs and puffs and seethes with rage as he wrestles with the mask, trying to take it off but also holding in on tight as he screams! The crowd erupts into a frenzy as Bladsco, now transformed into Scorpion, re-enters the ring with newfound rage and anger! With each strike, he unleashes the full force of his power, relentlessly pummelling Ace Pena into a bloody pulp! Scorpion gets on top of Ace on the mat and beats his head in with a ground and pound and big right hands as he screams with each blow! Blood drips from Pena's brow as Scorpion delivers a final, devastating blow, leaving his opponent sprawled out on the mat. The ref dives on Ace! The bell rings, signalling the end of the match as Scorpion stands tall in the ring with the fans BOOING!
DING DING DING!
Illa Isabella: Here is your winner… via knockout… Mark Blads… Uh… Scorpion!
Steve White: Scorpion beating the fuck out of Ace Pena a knocking him out as Mark Bladsco puts on the mask!
Chuck Thompson: This is brutal!
Scorpion tries to tear the mask off but he wrestles with himself internally! He grabs Ace from the mat and plants him with Scorpion Drop! The fans get louder and louder as Ace is a bloody mess, struggling on the canvas! Scorpion goes off to the side and calls for Scorpoon!
Steve White: Someone get Ace outta there! Scorpion is gonna kill him!
Chuck Thompson: I don’t think Bladsco wanted to put that mask on but the urge was too overwhelming and now he’s gonna take it out on Ace!
Scorpion runs up for Scorpoon when Ace gets to a knee but Isabella appears on the outside and drags Ace out of the ring, barely saving him! Scorpion looks out as they stumble back up the ramp together!
Steve White: Isabella barely saving Ace here tonight!
Chuck Thompson: Scorpion and Fernandez Gomez looking out and look at the sick grin and laughter on Gomez’s face!
Scorpion looks out and looks down at Fernandez Gomez at the bottom of the ramp who is laughing at Scorpion before we fade out to a video package.
The scene starts with Amanda Fien sitting at her desk with a notebook open. For the past couple of weeks, she’s been keeping a diary and writing in it of people that she doesn’t like or things she’s been through. Amanda has a pen in hand and as page open. We see her banging her pen back and forth.
Amanda Fien: I’m sure that this is the introduction that everyone wants to see and hear. I am sure that this is how my career on the Mayhem Brand is going to start off.
Amanda smirks and keeps moving her hand with the pen in it.
Amanda Fien: For everyone that doesn’t know me, my name is Amanda Fien or formerly known as Hayley Fien. You may have heard some things about me and heard them from the people that don’t know a damn thing about me. Chapter one is up and go read it because you will see how everything unfolds.
Amanda opens the pen and starts writing down some things before stopping.
Amanda Fien: My wrestling career has not been all roses and flowers. It started out promising and then it went down hill from here. I was a rising star, only to become fired by political bullshit only to go to another company, win their X-Divison Championship to lose it and then the company shuts before I even can get a rematch…
She rolls her eyes.
Amanda Fien: Now it’s time to write a new chapter in a new book, and it starts this week during the tag match!
She looks at the camera and starts writing “Chelsea LeClair” name in her little book that she has.
Amanda Fien: Chelsea LeClair, this chapter in my journal is dedicated to you and let me tell you, with the people that’s already in here, five to be exact, you don’t want your name in here AT ALL…
She stares at the name that she wrote down.
Amanda Fien: But knowing the reaction that you’re going to have about teaming up with me and hearing everything ABOUT me, you are going to leave me know other choice. Are you seriously and I mean seriously afraid that I am going to fuck up your undefeated streak that you have going on? Are you seriously afraid of what people are going to think about YOU teaming up with me?
She writes something in her book, but we don’t see what she’s exactly writing.
Amanda Fien: I could care any goddamn less about what anyone thinks about this rate! The only thing I care for is me getting a head start even if I have to team up against you when I even don’t want to! Though I will say this about our opponents…
She writes down their names in the book.
Amanda Fien: The Rissi girls don’t know what’s about to happen against them. I don’t mind making them another chapter in this book that I have open and about the things I want to do to them. They don’t know the torture they are about to go through in this match up. I know, twisted…
She smirks.
Amanda Fien: Being twisted is the perfect way to go these days instead of being too good for their own good…
She closes the book.
Amanda Fien: And Chelsea, after this is all set and done, you WILL be taking me later.
Amanda stands back up as the scene fades out.
We cut to the ring where Illa Isabella is waiting with a mic.
Illa Isabella: This following tag team contest tonight is set for one fall!
"The Other Side" by Alter Bridge begins to play throughout the arena and the lights begin to dim down, leaving a single spotlight on the stage. A few seconds later, each member in the match make their way out, stopping on top of the stage. They have grins on their faces as they take a moment to soak in the crowd's reaction towards them before slowly making their way down to the ring, the spotlight following them. Once they reach the ring, they go up the steel steps and enter the ring. They stand in the middle of the ring, looking out towards the crowd then hold one finger up in the air, the arena lighting back up. The two would fistbump then stand by the ropes and face forward. They still have grins on their faces as they wait, doing some pre-match warm-ups.
Illa Isabella: Introducing First… Dan Anderson and Roxanne… The Age of Fall!
Electricity by Silk City & Dua Lipa hits the speakers as the arena dims leaving red and white lights strobe through. The fans cheer as Rebecca steps out from behind the curtain. Standing in the center of the ramp she spreads her arms slightly as she extends her arms out to the side with her elbows bent.
Walking down the ramp, she runs her hand threw her hair before tagging some of the fans hands with her own as they reach over the barricade desperately, trying to high five her. She spins around and tries to high five as many hands as she can when she gets to the ringside area.
As she walks up the steal steps Rebecca has a confident smirk on her face as she walks along the apron's edge. Wiping her feet off before entering the ring under the second rope, she stands back up, flipping her hair over her shoulder before walking to the furthest side of the ring where she warms up for her match.
Illa Isabella: And next… Their opponents tonight… First up… Rebecca Delfina!
The lights dimmed down, as the opening guitar riffs to Reel Big Fish’s cover of “Take On Me” began to blare throughout the arena. Yellow and orange lights began to shine down and move throughout the arena as the main lights lit back up. The titan tron lit up in orange, with the word “WACKY” flashing across it in yellow font.
ONE.
TWO.
ONE TWO THREE FOUR!
The song picked up as Wilmer exploded from behind the curtain with his usual high energy and goofy grin spread across his face as he pointed his right index finger to the sky! Wilmer is rocking yellow and orange tie dye tights with a darker shade of yellow jester-style pointed toe boots with orange laces. Wilmer looked down at the ring as he lowered his right arm to be pointing down to it while nodding his head to the beat of the song. Wilmer would then make his way down the ramp, skanking to the beat of the song as he did so. He slapped hands with fans along the way before he ran and slid into the ring underneath the bottom rope. He quickly pushes himself up to his feet. Wilmer would skank around the ring a little more around the ring before he would make his way over to a corner, getting in a few last second stretches before the match starts.
Illa Isabella: And finally… her partner tonight… The Wacky One… Wilmer Patacky!
DING DING DING!
Match #2: Dan Anderson & Roxanne vs. Wilmer Patacky & Rebecca Delfina
As the bell rang, signalling the start of the match, Wilmer wasted no time, springing into action with a series of dropkicks as the fans go wild for his return to Mayhem! He launched himself off the ropes with lightning speed, aiming a flying dropkick at Dan, who narrowly sidestepped the attack! Quick to capitalise on the opening, Dan seized Wilmer's leg mid-air, twisting it with precision and bringing him crashing down to the mat with a thud! The crowd gasped as Wilmer grimaced in pain, momentarily stunned by the sudden turn of events as Dan taunted and insulted and started stomping on Wilmer’s chest as the ref comes over and tells him off!
Steve White: Dan and Wilmer putting on a big technical contest right now! Dan coming back with some counters but Wilmer just too damn good!
Chuck Thompson: The fans are overjoyed to see Wilmer back tonight as he builds momentum with Final Destination in his sights!!
Dan wasted no time, immediately targeting Wilmer's leg with calculated strikes exploiting any weakness! With each agonising twist and wrench, he methodically wore down his opponent, denying Wilmer the opportunity to regain his footing and launch another aerial assault!
However, Wilmer refused to stay down, summoning his resilience as he fought through the pain, determined to turn the tide in his favour. With a burst of adrenaline, he managed to create some distance between himself and Dan, regaining his vertical base and preparing to unleash another flurry of attacks as he dropkicked Dan to the mat! Wilmer comes off of the top rope and lands on Dan with a twisting crossbody and the fans go wild as Wilmer lines Dan up!
Steve White: Wilmer coming away with control tonight!
Chuck Thompson: The Age of Fall need this win but Wilmer wants to make sure he gets a big Mayhem return win tonight!
Dan, ever the opportunist, with a well-timed counter, Dan intercepted Wilmer mid-air, catching him in a devastating spinebuster that sent shockwaves reverberating through the ring! As Wilmer lay writhing on the canvas, Dan pounced on the opportunity, methodically applying a series of aggressive stomps! The fans boo as Dan grabs Wilmer and gets him in a headlock! Wilmer won’t tap! He lifts Dan up and plants him with a body drop! Wilmer springs off of the middle then top ropes and hits Dan with a hurricanrana!

Rebecca wasted no time in asserting her dominance, charging towards Roxanne with a burst of speed that caught her off guard! With a display of incredible strength, Rebecca hoisted Roxanne into the air, executing a picture-perfect suplex that got a huge pop from the crowd. However, Roxanne, quickly regained her composure, using her cunning to turn the tables on her opponent.

Roxanne, hurt but undeterred, started methodically wearing down Rebecca with a combination of precision strikes and cunning hits. As Rebecca attempted to mount another offensive, Roxanne lured her into a false sense of security, baiting her into a trap and locking in a punishing sleeper hold that threatened to sap away her strength! Yet, just when it seemed that all hope was lost, Rebecca summoned her inner strength, powering out of Roxanne's hold with sheer power! The fans LOSE IT and Roxanne is shocked!

Chuck Thompson: Huge win for these two!
The fans are going wild as Rebecca and Wilmer hug and get their arms raised together but their celebration is cut short as Rebecca’s music cuts off and Jacob Letoa and Jay Reynolds ambush them from behind! The fans are going wild with boos as Dan and Roxanne slide back in the ring and they all go at stomping out Wilmer and Rebecca!
Steve White: Wait! No! No! Dammit no! The entire Age of Fall are out here tonight and it’s an ambush on Wilmer and Rebecca!
Chuck Thompson: Wilmer and Rebecca are fighting back though!
Meanwhile, Roxanne brandished a black metal baseball bat, her eyes gleaming with malice as she advanced on Wilmer, who stood up groggily! With a savage swing, Roxanne brought the bat crashing down on Wilmer's shoulder, eliciting a gasp of agony from the Wacky One! Jay Reynolds and Jacob Letoa joined in the assault, their fists raining down on Rebecca and Wilmer! The crowd erupted into a frenzy of protest, their shouts drowned out by the sounds of violence echoing throughout the arena. The Age of Fall lay a beat down and ambush on Rebecca and Wilmer.
Steve White: The numbers game and some weapons put Wilmer and Rebecca down!
Chuck Thompson: This is hard to watch! Fuck these guys!
With Rebecca and Wilmer beaten down, Dan Anderson seized the moment, dragging Rebecca towards the ropes as Roxanne and the others held Wilmer in place against the ropes, preventing him from intervening. With a sadistic grin, Dan positioned Rebecca's head against the steel chair, preparing to take her out! Wilmer struggled against his captors, his heart pounding with desperation as he watched helplessly, his mind racing with thoughts of how to save his partner. But his efforts were in vain as Dan Anderson delivered the devastating curbstomp, driving Rebecca's skull into the unforgiving steel chair of the ring with a sickening thud!
Steve White: NO! BRUTAL! Curbstomp into the damn chair from Dan to Rebecca and they made Wilmer watch!
Chuck Thompson: Just sickening! The Age of Fall have gone too far tonight and Dan Anderson looks proud of himself!
Jacob pulls Wilmer up and plants him with his big sideslam! Dan Anderson bounces off of the ropes and hits Wilmer with a curb stomp as well and Wilmer and Rebecca are down and out! Finished and bloodied as the BOOS reign down heavily with The Age of Fall standing tall in the ring together!
Dan Anderson: Let this go out to the whole of EHWF! Mayhem and Chaos. Every competitor and management. The fans in the stands and those watching at home! TONIGHT The Age of Fall don’t take no more shit! We’ll keep taking out everyone at any time we see fit until we get what we want and what we want is RESPECT!
The fans boo loudly and belt the ring with garbage as The Age of Fall celebrates over Wilmer and Rebecca’s bodies as we fade out backstage.
Mayhem cuts to Chelsea LeClair and the EHWF Jr. Heavyweight Champion is absolutely not in the best mood at the moment. She’s thinking about Retribution and the match that she found herself in and that’s largely got her in a down mood. She’s doing the best that she can to think ahead to what is coming up, but her body language is indicating that she isn’t looking forward to this as she begins to speak.
Chelsea LeClair: Retribution… not fun…
I had plans to enter that Royale later and see if I could pull through and win that. I had plans to win against Casey Holliday considering we have had a burgeoning rivalry over the last few months, almost a year at this point. Neither thing happened. I mean, I didn’t lose the match. Nobody did. But at the same time, that wasn’t a match that was a fun affair at all. I mean, I ended up with a partner that I don’t even want to be around, that I could never like, and someone that is a rotting cancer on this business
But I guess if there were any positives to take away from this it’s that Casey didn’t get to compete in that Royale either.
And I thought to myself that at the very least, I was done being around that toxic person…
But then I learned about what is coming up tonight and…
Chelsea takes a pause as she lets out an annoyed sigh. She even adds an eye roll at this as she is making it quite obvious that she wants nothing to do with Amanda Fien and would rather focus her energies elsewhere.
Chelsea LeClair: …I can’t stand this. I can’t stand HER. She’s a truly ugly person on the inside and I’ve already gone into why I don’t like her.
I have to focus on everything that I need to do to stay on top of my game especially with the big one in Final Destination coming up. Our opponents are going to be people that never take a day off as you would expect with anyone with the last name Rissi. I have respect for both of them and that especially goes for Joanna who has been one of the few people that have been supportive of me in this company and have actually meant it. Don’t take how I feel about my partner in concept only for granted and don’t take it like a sign of weakness.
I’ve been able to pull my way out of this before throughout my career and I am confident that even with this, I am still going to find a way. I am not about to leave the door open for someone else to walk in and take this from me. I have done nothing but fight with all of the passion and all of the fire in my heart to be the best that I can be in this company from the moment I got here. I had to deal with a treacherous journey to get there.
Even before I walked in here, I’ve got to be honest… things weren’t going well for me in my career. I was struggling to find my place just like that cancer I have to team up with clearly has for years, but unlike her, I didn’t just cave into my insecurities. I fought and I kept coming back no matter how hard things got and the thing is, I WILL get to Final Destination with this championship and more importantly, I will LEAVE that event STILL with this championship. I’ve come too far to be anchored by a toxic cancer and to let someone like that control my mood.
‘Hell with that…
Hell with anyone in this company taking advantage of something silly like that.
I’ve been nothing but a winner and I’ve been able to find a way through every obstacle for a reason and this is NOT the time to let this slip away. So to the Rissis on the other side, you’re going to have to basically kill me to win this match. I’m still pissed off from all the Retribution happenings and I hate that I have to take it out on people that I have respect for, but that’s unfortunately how it goes sometimes.
This is where I step up and shine just like I have time after time here so far…
Chelsea angrily leaves the room and then the scene fades out.
We cut to the ring where Illa Isabella is waiting with a mic.
Illa Isabella: This following tag team contest is set for one single fall!
Azzurra Rissi's music hits and the fans get up and start making some noise. Azzurra comes out and looks either side of the stage first before making their way down the ramp and to the ring. They get up the steel steps and look out at the fans before they get into the ring and raise their arms while they wait for the match to begin.
Illa Isabella: Introducing First… Azzurra Rissi!
The opening of 'Be Right Here' by Kungs hits the speakers as the arena dims leaving orange and green lights strobbed throughout. The fans cheer as Joanna steps out from behind the curtain. Standing in the center of the ramp she raises her arms to the cheering fans!
Walking down the ramp, she runs her hand through her hair before tagging some of the fans hands as they reach over the barricade with cheers! The fiery Joanna breaks out into a sprint as the theme reaches it's peak drop on the speakers!
As she walks up the steal steps Joanna has a confident stride as she walks along the apron's edge, wiping her boots off on the apron before entering the ring under the second rope, she stands back up, flipping her hair over her shoulder and performing theatrics in the ring and on the corner before walking to the furthest side of the ring where she warms up for her match.
Illa Isabella: And next… Her partner tonight… Joanna Rissi!
Cold-Blooded by Zayde Wolf kicks in as the fans are booing. Out come Amanda Fien, wearing a black and red cloak over her head (think little red riding hood but darker). She walks to the ring, ignoring the fans that are booing at her and sending her threats, but she ignores them. Amanda rolls into the ring and takes off the cloak in the ring, revealing darker ring attire.
Illa Isabella: And next up… Their opponents… First… Amanda Fein!
"Chelsea" by STEFY hits and the fans cheer as Chelsea LeClair walks through the curtains, poised, confident and determined to make things happen in this match as she begins to walk down the aisle. She soaks in some cheers a bit as she gets to ringside and at this point, she's all business as she slides into the ring. Soaking things in a bit more, she climbs up the corner to the second rope with a smile, a fist raised in the air and a quick point to the crowd before she hops back down to the corner, leans against it and waits for the match to begin.
Illa Isabella: And finally… her partner tonight… She is the EHWF Jr Heavyweight Champion… Chelsea LeClair!
DING DING DING!

Headlines hits the PA System as the lights go a dim blue. The entrance stage is covered in strobe lights, lasers and smoke. As the ominous smoke billows before the vocals of the song we see the big shadow of Michael Rissi appear at the entrance as the fans get on their feet! The Song kicks in and Rissi appears on stage as the fans go BERSERK! The lights kick up and sparks and pyro flies as Rissi in blue and gold wrestling bottoms and a leather jacket appears on the ramp! He sprints down and slaps the screaming fans hands as he slides in the ring! He rips his jacket off and tosses it far into the crowd as women start to fight over it! The fans are going nuts as Rissi gets to a turnbuckle and raises his huge arms!
Michael Rissi: Ladies and Gentlemen... Welcome to a special Mayhem addition of EHWF 360!
The fans go WILD as Michael Rissi looks around at the cheering fans.
Michael Rissi: I stand before you tonight with a heavy heart, as we mourn the passing of one of our own. Last week, we tragically lost a member of the EHWF family, Sah'ta Thor.
A collective murmur of sadness rippled through the crowd, as fans bowed their heads in a moment of silent reverence for the fallen wrestler. Michael's words were filled with genuine sorrow, his voice tinged with regret as he spoke of the loss of a colleague and friend.
Michael Rissi: Sah'ta Thor may have been a fierce competitor in the ring, But let us not forget that he was also a flawed man. He was no saint, and he made his fair share of mistakes during his time here in the EHWF. I can't say I liked Thor and we all know he didn't like me. In the end, the most important person in Sah'ta Thor's life was himself. He lived for his own glory, his own ambitions, his own desires. That's why he and I could truly never get along.
Michael paces up and down the ring.
Michael Rissi: That being said, we now need a new EHWF World Champion as Thor has left the title vacant and all of you would have seen that I won the Retribution Royale last week!
The fans go BERSERK again as Rissi nods along!
Michael Rissi: I beat Thor a number of times during my career in EHWF. Thor had an odd fixation with me. Always bringing me up, couldn't leave things where they were. Even in his death video he took shots - called my fight with Brandon Bash and my reign as Champion a "stagnation" for the title. One of the most watched feuds. One of the biggest matches of all time at a huge Final Destination a "stagnation" really? This is why I would have loved to use my Retribution Royale to have gone after Thor and defeat him at Final Destination for the championship... but I clearly can't do that now... No... Instead I have two choices. I can use this opportunity to go to Final Destination to face my cousin, Brianna Rissi for the EHWF Unified Global Championship!
The fans ROAR at the idea!
Michael Rissi: Or I can see who wins in the main even tonight and go and face them one on one for the EHWF World Championship at Final Destination!
More huge cheers from the fans!
Michael Rissi: Both seem like good choices to me! But the EHWF World Championship has been tarnished. Talentless little dweebs over the years had that title fall in their hands. Fuckers like Killer Carter, David Arnold, David Smith, Silver Kazama held that title and it makes me sick that they actually put it around their waist because they never deserved it.
Michael looks around for a moment and then back at the camera as it zooms in on him.
Michael Rissi: If I can put on a MASSIVE blockbuster match which whoever at Final Destination to bring back big interest and big money to that EHWF World Championship, then THAT'S what I want... But if I can have a chance to fight one of the greatest fighters in the world for the EHWF Unified Global Championship - someone who has beaten me in the past but I have never defeated; my cousin, Brianna Rissi... Then that doesn't sound too bad either!
The fans get super loud as Michael brings the mic back to his lips.
Michael Rissi: But you're going to have to wait until Tuesday Night because I'm going to head to Chaos and it's THERE that I'll make my decision on who I'll face. So we'll have the EHWF Unified Global Champion and the NEW EHWF World Champion out there with me and I'll make my choice then!
The fans go wild as Michael drops the mic and makes his way out of the ring. The fans get louder as Michael makes his way up the ramp and we fade out to an EHWF World Championship history video package.
We cut to the ring where Illa Isabella is waiting with a mic.
Illa Isabella: This main event contest is a 10 person Mayhem Battle Royal and it’s for the Vacant EHWF World Championship!
The lights go out in the arena, as a white curtain drops from the ceiling. The music begins to kick in as a woman stands behind it for a moment. The woman then raises her hands to her sides as she begins posing behind the curtain as the lyrics begin.
It's a human sign
When things go wrong
When the scent of her lingers
And temptation's strong
The curtain drops revealing Diana Bellerose standing behind it, with her rookie Anna Ross. Diana steps through putting her hands up by her side, again as Anna steps beside her waving at the fans. Diana slaps her hands down, then lifts the bottom part of her jacket she is wearing, starting to walk down to the ring, Anna follows her sighing a bit, as she reaches out for the fans. Diana ignored her for that one, as she stopped at the bottom of the ramp, looking up into the ring. She points then Anna goes over and climbs up on to the apron and opens the rope as Diana stands there for another moment.
Cold, cold heart
Hardened by you (oh)
Some things lookin' better, baby
Just passin' through (no, no, no, no, no)
Diana then turns to the stairs and goes over to them. She climbs up them, and steps through the waiting ropes, she then poses for a moment walking around the ring, before heading over to the corner climbing up the turnbuckle and flipping her blonde hair. She points to her corner as Anna then moves into it, standing there. Diana then drops her jacket to her, and moves to the middle of the ring to watch for the opponent.
Illa Isabella: Introducing First Up Tonight… The Wild Rose… Diana Bellerose!
The lights go dark as a trio of gongs echo through the arena. As the last one sounds a faint purple spotlight begins to shine down on the top of the entry ramp. A few seconds pass before the opening notes of Mortemia's What Else is There begin to play through the speakers. As the lyrics begin Isabella Thorn steps out from the back with the EHWF Mixed Tag Team Championship gleaming around her waist. Her upper body is covered by a black and purple custom designed kimono/trench coat mix. Down each of the arms are silver and gold lotus petals that catch the purple spotlight shining down on the ramp. Isabella starts down the ramp towards the ring with a determined pace. Once she gets to the ring she climbs up the steps and steps into as the arena lights come back on. With a smirk on her lips Isabella thrusts a fist into the air then lowers it as various colored lotus petals rain upon the fans. As she turns to wait for her opponent's entrances she removes her custom top to reveal a black and silver crop top.
Illa Isabella: And next up… She is one half of the EHWF Mixed Tag Team Champions… Isabella Thorn!
Taking you down plays the arena as the fans give a jaded reaction to the entrance of Ashburn
Gold and blue pyro goes off as David makes his way out on the stage and throws off his robe! He shows off and flexes his muscles on the stage and gets into the crowd then makes his way through the ramp and down to the ring looking calm and cool. Ashburn gets in and raises his arms to the fans and begins to prepare getting himself psyched up for the forth coming match.
Illa Isabella: And making his way to the ring… David Ashburn!
The lights fade out, as a maniacal laugh from Alexandria can be heard right before "No World for Tomorrow" by Coheed & Cambria begins to blare throughout the arena. The lights come back in with a teal hue, as the crowd erupts with boos. Alexandria Kendrick steps out onto the stage, staring down at the ring, refusing to break her focus. Her long, black hair was tied back into a braided ponytail. She wore black compression shorts that ended just below her knees with a teal grim reaper design on the left leg while "Kendrick" in teal font went down her right leg. On her upper torso she wore a similar compression style women's tanktop that clung tightly to her body, to the delight of many in the crowd. She makes her way down the ramp, shaking her wrists and limbering up as she does so. She rolls into the ring underneath the bottom rope, quickly pushing herself up to her feet like a jump, showing off some of her strength. Alex would stand in the middle of the ring, pulling a pair of gloves out from her cleavage and pulling them on, one at a time. They seemed to also have a teal wolf design on each glove. She makes sure her fingers are in tight before pulling the velcro over, tightening the gloves around her wrist before popping her knuckles. She would then suddenly jump forward, placing her right foot on the bottom rope and catching her left foot onto the middle rope while grabbing a hold of the top rope with her left hand. Alex then raises her right fist into the air. "No World for Tomorrow" would slowly begin to fade out. Alex would hop off of the ropes and back into the corner, waiting for the bell to ring.
Illa Isabella: And next up… Alexandria Kendrick!
Drive by Fat Joe hits the PA System and calm blue and green lighting slowly hits the arena as all of the fans go wild with cheers and roars! Arcus' silhouette appears on the stage as he makes his way out. The fans are all going wild and he makes his way down the ramp, slapping hands of the fans before stopping at the bottom. Some blue pyro explodes on the sides of the ramps and when the sparks end, Arcus sprints into the ring and slides in, getting on the ropes and celebrating, waiting for the bell to ring.
Illa Isabella: And making his way to the ring… Arcus D’Rocco!
Soft pink lights begin to flicker around the entrance as the opening guitar riff plays along with the video package on the tron. As the lyrics start, Zoe pushes aside the curtain, walking out slowly with a smirk on her face.
“I’ll stop the whole world
I’ll stop the whole world
From turning us into a monster
And eating us alive”
As the chorus pops, she throws a fist into the air, then makes her way to the ring, sliding under the bottom rope to leap up to her feet and pose in the middle of the ring.

Aston Martin Truck hits the PA system. The whole arena goes pitch black for a moment but dim blue lights come on and offer some illumination. We see the big silhouette of Domenic Mazzio as he slowly raises his arms up. He walks out onto the stage and the lighting becomes brighter. He raises his arms up two more times then throws them down sending a massive explosion of blue pyro rocketing out of the stage. Mazzio then proceeds down the ramp and shakes hands with the fans. He gets in the ring and takes off his tank top and throws it into the crowd before raising his arms while climbing the turnbuckle.
Illa Isabella: And next up… Mazzio!
Joyride by Tinashe starts to play on the PA system and Thea Nefeli appears in the lights with her fists by her sides and raises them which makes the fans cheer. Thea comes down the ramp and slaps some fans hands while she runs into the ring and looks out at the crowd. She gets on the ropes and leans over on them, raising her arm with the cheering fans. She gets down and waits for her match to start.
Illa Isabella: And making her way to the ring… Thea Nefeli!
The guitar riff to "Werewolf" begins to ripple throughout the arena. Scott Wilson appears on the entrance stage and after a quick glance at the crowd, begins to make his way to ringside. He stops to limber himself up before entering the ring.

Thea, making her way down to the ring with a smile on her face and a glint of pride in her eyes.

Chuck Thompson: Thea coming out here to celebrate with her husband!
Without hesitation, she threw her arms around Mazzio's neck, pulling him into a passionate embrace as they started to make out in the centre of the ring! The crowd erupted into cheers at the sight of the couple. But amidst the celebration, a discordant note began to sound, as a chorus of boos and jeers rose up from certain sections of the audience. At first, Mazzio paid little heed to the dissenting voices, too caught up in the euphoria of his victory to pay them any mind. But as the chants grew louder and more insistent, a scowl darkened his features, his brow furrowing with frustration and anger. The chants grew in intensity, echoing throughout the arena as the disgruntled fans made their feelings known. "Wilson! Wilson! Wilson!" they shouted, their voices rising in unison as they expressed their disappointment that Scott Wilson, had not emerged victorious.
Steve White: What the heck is going on?! The fans are actually BOOING Mazzio right now and chanting for Wilson!? Did you think you would have seen this?
Chuck Thompson: Not in a million years! Mazzio doesn’t look happy about it though!
The jeers cut through the air like a knife, piercing Mazzio's pride and inflaming his temper as he struggled to maintain his composure in the face of the crowd's hostility. With a growl of frustration, he brushed past Thea and raised the championship up! Wilson who was on the outside floor looked around as Wilson chants just got louder and louder. Mazzio shook his head as Thea tried to calm him down. The fans didn’t want Mazzio to come away with this one. It was clear Scott Wilson was the fan favourite.
Steve White: Mazzio normally a favourite to the fans and normally a calm guy isn’t taking this too well!!
Chuck Thompson: Wilson! Wilson! Wilson!
Wilson looks up at Mazzio in the ring who holds the title belt and looks pissed at the crowds reaction. Wilson looks back at the ramp just above him and sees Scorpion who is seething with rage as Fernandez Gomez holds him back halfway up the ramp!
Steve White: This is all the fault of Scorpion who assaulted Wilson not only in the Retribution Royale but also tonight in this battle royal!
Chuck Thompson: Regardless… Mazzio is the new EHWF World Champion and can’t no one do anything about it!
