The scene opens up as official opening theme song of EHWF Tuesday Night Chaos, “Madness” by All That Remains, is playing in the background. We pan into the scene where we see fans screaming in the crowd in the The Pit! We get a clear shot of the arena and all the fans. As we cut to the pyrotechnics show, we move onto the broadcast area at ringside where Alexander Corvis and Maddie Murdock are waiting to start the night!
Alexander Corvis: Ladies and Gentlemen! We welcome you to Tuesday Night Chaos live from The Pit here in Albuquerque, New Mexico! What a massive night this is gonna be after everything that has been building here on Chaos and the huge fallout after Aftermath! Last week at Aftermath, Casey Holliday continued to prove why she's the most must see and skilled competitors in EHWF as the EHWF Unified Global Champion continued her undefeated streak by defeating Braddock one on one! Now Casey Holliday realises that a HUGE challenge is in front of her in the form of the Chaos Meltdown Chamber where she will need to defend her championship. Katelyn De La Vega is still finding her feet here in EHWF but last week continued her own undefeated streak where she defended her EHWF Showtime Championship against The Age of Fall. Unfortunately The Age of Fall aren't finished with Katelyn De La Vega and they've continued to state they want to take over Chaos and take all of the titles. Tonight will be an Age of Fall Lumberjack match where all of the members of The Age of Fall will be outside the ring for this Champion vs. Champion clash against EHWF Unified Global Champion Casey Holliday and EHWF Showtime Champion Katelyn De La Vega. The Age of Fall being around the ring benefit no one but it's going to be interesting to see how it affects this match against these two undefeated competitors!
Maddie Murdock: Brianna Rissi did what so few have been able to accomplish in EHWF and that's defeat Ana Somnia one on one. At Aftermath Brianna Rissi proved why she's one of the greatest fighters on the planet with a strong win over Ana Somnia. Tonight Brianna will team up with the rookie, Joanna Penkzee-Nelson to take on The Brothers of Balance as Brianna now builds a campaign to get back the EHWF Unified Global Championship which she's entitled to a rematch for. Ana Somnia will be out there on commentary tonight to add to the intensity of this contest!
Alexander Corvis: ISIS and Naomi Banks are no strangers to each other but with the Chaos Meltdown Chamber around the corner, everyone wants to impress tonight! In this main event caliber match, ISIS and Naomi Banks will go one on one once again for bragging rights! ISIS and Nephthys have been on fire lately whereas Naomi Banks and Sativa Biscotti return to Chaos after some time off. The winner of this one will no doubt send a massive message to the Chaos Meltdown Chamber and to the EHWF Unified Global Champion as well! Don't miss this massive co-main event!
Maddie Murdock: Griffin Hawkins dethroned Sujir Thorn and his incredibly impressive EHWF Extreme Championship reign - something that no one else was able to do. Now Insidious are PISSED and they want control of Chaos back. Brian Phillips showed up after a long damn time on the shelf and provided backup to Griffin Hawkins. HardKore Brian Phillips is back and we all know he wants the EHWF Extreme Championship but Sujir wants the belt back as well. Tonight Griffin and Brian team up to take on Insidious in a tag team contest!
Alexander Corvis: And we’re not only gonna hear from Joanna Penkzee Nelson, Griffin Hawkins and of course the EHWF Unified Global Champion, Casey Holliday but we’re also gonna learn just who is going to be in the EHWF Chaos Meltdown Chamber and just how is going to be challenging Casey Holliday inside the Chamber for the EHWF Unified Global Championship! I can’t wait for Meltdown, Maddie!
Maddie Murdock: This is going to be one incredible night! Lets start the show, Alexander!
“Well… What can I say?”
Brianna fervently looks up and takes in the defiant cheers from the excited fans as she takes a few seconds.
“Ana Somnia and Brianna Rissi went into Aftermath - one on one. A match no one expected to see at that event but a contest that was on everyone’s dream matches list! They’re calling it one of the best matches of all time. One of the greatest contests in pro-wrestling. It’s true we stole the show at Aftermath and I’m sure no one expected it to end the way it did, for more reasons than one.”
The camera begins to focus in on Brianna’s face as she stares straight down the barrel with an emotive expression of pure defiance and determination etched in her face.
“Ana Somnia fucked up when she targeted and assaulted my family. Ana Somnia thought she was walking into just any other match she’s been in with just anyone else. She’s used to dominating and she’s used to winning and that’s fine, but the problem is, she wasn’t up against JUST anyone. We beat the SHIT out of each other and put on a contest filled with levels of skill that others can only dream about… but this match was over before it even began. When Somnia put her hands on MY family, the deal was already sealed… I wasn’t going to let her walk out of that contest as the winner.”
The cheers erupt again as Brianna backs off, the intensity of that tirade still radiating through the vibrating arena and all of its ecstatic fans tonight!
“At Aftermath, I became the fourth person in EHWF history to beat Ana Somnia in a contest. Killer Carter, Remi Skyfire, Naomi Banks, and now… Brianna Rissi. Killer Carter, a rather uninspired flash in the pan competitor who only got incredibly lucky against Ana Somnia was the first. Remi Skyfire was Ana’s first true challenge but still, a woman I beat for the EHWF Global Championship. Naomi Banks had the heart to beat Ana but she didn’t do it alone and every time Naomi and I have met one on one she’s always fallen to me… THIS… ALL OF THIS should speak on what kind of competitor I am, both inside the ring and outside of it. This was a fight of competition, a fight of honour and integrity, but most of all? It was a fight for family…”
Brianna’s voice trails lower as the fans pick back up, now seemingly hanging on her every word as she gets more and more alluring and direct in the tone of every word that she delivers in the centre of the ring!
“But that’s all back at Aftermath now. I defeated Ana Somnia one on one and the world saw her shake my hand, so as far as I’m concerned… that’s that. Now… I know EHWF Meltdown is coming up next and it’s going to be in NICE, FRANCE!”
The crowd ERUPTS yet again as we pan across seeing all of their cheering faces and stop at the tron which displays the EHWF Meltdown logo before cutting back to Brianna.
“I’ve been in a few Meltdown Chambers in my time and I’ve won every single one I’ve ever been in! If you want to look at my current rankings around this place… well, I just defeated Chaos’s greatest challenge and I technically still have my rematch for the EHWF Unified Global Championship as I DID successfully defend the title. I’m coming off of a HUGE victory, the biggest of the night at Aftermath in fact, and it should be NO surprise that my intention is to regain my EHWF Unified Global Championship. So with Meltdown just tw—”
“Ana, I don't think I'll ever get you. I don't think I'll ever be able to get down to your wavelength to understand you... You talked a big game and that was fine. We got into it, there was a lot of back and forth, that's the price of doing business in OUR business... but then we had a match. You challenged me and we went at it, one on one, no other crap and no extra bullshit. We went at it in the ring ONE ON ONE and we tore the house down, stole the show and put on one of the best matches of all time.”
The arena erupted in a thunderous roar as fans chanted Brianna Rissi's name, their excitement becoming more and more evident and wild as Brianna and Ana are up close and personal right now. Brianna and Ana both took a moment and looked either side of them at the cheering fans.
“So I don't get it... We went to Aftermath and had a contest and I WON! You didn't win that match, I WON! And now all of a sudden, that's not good enough? The bottom line, whether your undeserved pride lets you admit it or not is that I DID defeat you, Ana. You said you were gonna hurt me and do all of these things to me and beat me at Aftermath but you didn't. I told you I was gonna beat you at Aftermath and I did. Only one of us won that night and only one of us backed up what they said they were gonna do... So If I was you, I wouldn't be talking about 'empty threats' because you seem to be the queen of that right now.”
The fans go BERSERK once more as Brianna holds her arms out while looking into Ana's eyes with an intransigent and powerful gaze from her blinding eyes. Brianna steps forward and raises her left hand up while not taking her eyes off of Ana as she calms the cheering and screaming crowd.
“Maybe we can call you 'Pound-for-Pound Most Potent Bullshit Artist on the Planet', hmm? Right now, you don't get to talk about how Champions are forged around these parts. Why don't I simply do what should be done, take my win over you, leave Ana Somnia in the past, and move on to my EHWF Unified Global Championship rematch, which I'm MORE than entitled to now?”
The fans' cheers vibrate through the arena and quiet down to a mixed reaction as Brianna walks off and leans on the ropes, leaving Ana standing in the same spot as Brianna looks out at the fans. For a few moments, neither woman looks at each other or has any contact. Brianna smirks and turns back to the ring and gets up close to Ana once more.
“But... That would be too easy... So instead let ME be the one to challenge you this time. How about, I finish this for good. I've already beaten you once, since that didn't satisfy you, let me do it again... I suggest... Brianna Rissi vs. Ana Somnia at Meltdown... And we do it in YOUR OWN match... A New Age Deathmatch! And I can say that not only did I defeat you once, Ana, but after Meltdown, I will have defeated you twice!”
The crowd ERUPTS as they can't believe the challenge put forth right now! The audience, still riding high from the incredible encounter that they recently witnessed featuring these two are now on the edge of their seats! Ana and Brianna are still face to face, Brianna with a wide and confident expression on her face as she and the crazed fans await Ana Somnia's response to Brianna's challenge. Slowly, an ominous smirk crawls across Ana’s visage. She exhales softly through her nose before nodding her head and chuckling lightly. Advancing closer to Rissi, Somnia lacks urgency in lifting her microphone back to her lips.
“I accept,” she hisses, earning a deafening roar of approval from the capacity crowd. “But I must warn you, милая...” Ana’s voice trails off slightly as she inches even closer to Rissi, so close she could reach out and tuck some of Rissi’s hair behind her ear should she so wish. “You have made accord. You have made… deal with Devil. And Devil... always collects… on what she is due.”
Somnia narrows her eyes at Rissi, giving her a brief, but nonetheless provocative once-over. She lowers her microphone and soon drops it to the mat, her theme song quickly replacing the white noise resulting from the microphone’s crash landing on the canvas.
ALEXANDER CORVIS: “Can you believe that, Maddie? A New Age Deathmatch! The first one EHWF will have seen in almost three years!”
MADDIE MURDOCK: “Two Meltdown Chambers and a New Age Deathmatch all on one night? This is about to be one of the most violent shows in recent memory!”
Rissi shakes her head with a scowl as Somnia says something to her the microphones can’t pick up and slips past her. Ana vacates the ring and saunters up the entrance ramp with a satisfied sneer on her otherwise sultry visage. Rissi turns and watches her depart with disdain in her eyes, allowing our scene to fade to black.
We go to footage that took place earlier in the day. The new Extreme Champion Griffin Hawkins is seen leaning against the brick wall outside the arena, dressed in black jeans and a Type O Negative T-Shirt. The Extreme Title rests proudly over his shoulder as he begins to speak.
Griffin Hawkins: As the old saying goes... what goes up, must come down. The higher you are... the more it will hurt when you fall. It doesn't matter how great your empire it is, all it takes is one person to bring it all down. As we look back on history books it will show that Sujir Thorn made one mistake and put an irremovable blemish on his reign. Because all it took for me was one shot... just one chance for me to rip the Extreme Title from his iron grip. I did what many before me had failed to do and I dethroned the great destroyer. But it looks like he's not going to give up without a fight.
He readjusts the title on his shoulder and begins walking towards the camera man.
Griffin Hawkins: See Thorn... I told you before that I was coming to EHWF to make an impact, and the first thing I was going to do is become the Extreme Champion. And I hate to be the one who says I told you so... but I told you so. You could've shook my hand and left with dignity... but you and your goons decided to jump me and beat me down. You would've ended my career if it weren't for a returning Brian Phillips. And now the two of us are gonna take you and Aaron Fredrick Hudson down. You're good with gang attacks... but when the sides are a little bit even, it's quite the different story isn't it? Insidious is already starting to crumble now that the Extreme Title is no longer in their camp. And now to further drive the final nails in the coffin.
He takes off his shades.
Griffin Hawkins: Which brings me to you Hudson. Did you ever stop to think that Thorn may be using you? Did you ever stop to think that you and Lu Chen are nothing more than lackeys to him? What rewards have you reaped from sitting under the learning tree of Thorn? What have you done other than carry his bags? Are you afraid you're gonna fall over if he pulls his hand out of your ass? Maybe tonight me and Brian beat some sense into you.
He then looks serious.
Griffin Hawkins: And that leaves my partner Brian Phillips. The question is... can I trust him? Well... anyone who hates Thorn and his gaggle of yes men as much as I do sounds like someone I can trust. But I know deep in the back of his mind... he wants a shot at this coveted prize. Brian... I'm not one of those champions who ducks threats to his reign. Anytime you want a title shot, all you gotta do is ask. Just get a contract and sign it... and you're in. But first we gotta take care of the business at home. So Insidious... get ready, because somebody's gonna get rocked!
He walks off as we go back to the ring.
We cut to ringside where Patricia Downs is waiting with a mic.
Patricia Downs: This opening contest tonight is a tag team match set for one fall!
The opening dialogue of his theme starts Aaron comes out, in blue Jeans and random t-shirt with black boots, a black leather belt and a black fedora, with a grin on lips. He makes his way down the ramp to the ring with a devious swagger be slips into the ring in a Shawn Michealesque knee slide. He stays still as his music comes to an end his eyes on the ramp as he watches he opponent enter. As he stands back up he takes of his fedora handing it the ref before moving to his corner.
Patricia Downs: First up tonight… Being accompanied by Lu Chen Hudson…Aaron Fredrick Hudson!
A white fog starts to cover the ramp as the opening notes to Bullets by Creed start to play. A series of bright red spot lights turn on illuminating the smoke as Sujir's silhouette is seen at the top of the ramp. The smoke slowly clears as Sujir wearing a red leather trench coat slowly steps down the ramps striding slowly towards the ring nodding to the fans as he does so. Once to the ring he climbs the steel steps and slides into the ring under the ropes and then rises to his knees kneeling to the center of the ring staring at the top of the entrance ramp his arms spread. About halfway through the song he jumps to his feet he rises to his feet and strides confidently to his corner. Once there he pulls off his trench coat tossing it towards the ring announcers before he rises to the top ropes as the lights return to normal and he awaits the start of the match.
Patricia Downs: And next up… His partner tonight… Sujir Thorn!
"Whiskey in the Jar" by Metallica blares throughout the arena. HardKore steps out on stage and thrusts his Singapore cane into the air. He makes his way down the ramp and climbs into the ring before he raises his Singapore cane back into the air. HardKore does this at each side of the ring to make sure the fans get a chance to get a picture of him in his iconic pose before he puts the cane down on the apron in his corner while the music fades out.
Patricia Downs: And next… Their opponents tonight… First… HardKore… Brian Phillips!
Fans are awaiting what's to come. Suddenly the sounds of a guitar playing is heard. "Separate Ways" by Journey hits in and from behind the curtain enters Griffin Hawkins! He walks down the ramp in Pink Zebra print tights and a sleeveless mesh shirt. His signature leather jacket and silver aviator shades adorn him as he walks down, high fiving fans as he soaks in the positive reaction. He looks towards the ring and steps up the stairs, looking towards the cheering crowd with a smile.
He steps between the ropes and gets on the turnbuckles, raising the devil horns in the air...pumping up the live crowd. Soon he gets down, taking off his leather jacket before going outside the ring. He takes off his aviators and puts them around a young excited fan, smiling down at him. As he gets back in the ring he paces back and forth, waiting for the match to finally begin.
Patricia Downs: And his partner tonight… He is the EHWF Extreme Champion… The Jukebox Hero… Griffin Hawkins!
DING DING DING
The bell rings, and the extreme rules tag team match is underway! Griffin Hawkins and Brian Phillips face off against Insidious, represented by Sujir Thorn and Aaron Fredrick Hudson, with Lu Chen Hudson at ringside. Sujir and Griffin start the match, and Sujir immediately goes for a kendo stick from under the ring, swinging it wildly at Griffin. Griffin ducks under the swings and counters with a dropkick, sending Sujir crashing into the ropes! Griffin follows up with a series of stiff punches, then grabs the kendo stick and cracks it over Sujir's back, the sound echoing through the arena!
Maddie Murdock: This is what extreme rules are all about! Weapons are legal, and it’s already getting chaotic! Sujir wants his freaking belt back and Griffin isn’t gonna give it up without a brutal and bloody fight!
Sujir staggers forward, and Griffin hits him with a DDT onto the steel chair, driving his head into the unforgiving steel! Sujir rolls out of the ring to recover, but Griffin follows him, pulling out another steel chair from under the ring! He swings it at Sujir, who ducks, and the chair connects with the ring post with a loud clang! Sujir grabs Griffin and whips him into the steel steps, sending him crashing into them! Meanwhile, inside the ring, Brian Phillips and Aaron Fredrick Hudson have started brawling! Aaron gets the upper hand with a big boot, then follows up with a German suplex! Brian wants to fight but Aaron doesn’t want him to go for the weapons so Aaron plants him with another German suplex on the canvas!
Maddie Murdock: The action is intense both inside and outside the ring! These teams are going all out! So much at steak tonight! Sujir and Brian both have Griffin and his belt on their minds!
Brian rolls out of the ring to catch his breath, but Aaron follows him, grabbing a trash can lid from under the ring and smashing it over Brian's head. Brian stumbles back, and Aaron hits him with a clothesline, sending him over the barricade and into the crowd! The fans scatter as the brawl spills into the audience. Back at ringside, Griffin and Sujir are still going at it. Griffin grabs a table and sets it up, but Sujir catches him with a boot to the face, then slams him onto the announce table with a spinebuster! Griffin yells in pain as Sujir slams his forearm down on his chest and rolls him further onto the announce table as the fans LOSE IT!
Maddie Murdock: This is chaos! The referee has no control in this extreme rules environment! Sujir and Griffin are brawling right on top of our damn table, Alexander!
Sujir climbs onto the announce table, dragging Griffin up with him! He sets up for a powerbomb, but Griffin counters with a back body drop, sending Sujir crashing through the table! The crowd erupts as Griffin stands tall amidst the wreckage, taking refuge on the barricade! Inside the ring, Aaron and Brian have made their way back, and Aaron has Brian in a corner, delivering a series of brutal knee strikes to his midsection! Aaron pulls Brian out of the corner and hits a sit-out powerbomb, going for a cover!

KICK OUT!
Maddie Murdock: This match is taking a toll on everyone involved! How much more can they endure? The blood is already flowing as expected!
Aaron gets frustrated and slides out of the ring, grabbing a bag of thumbtacks from under the ring. He spreads them out in the center of the ring, then grabs Brian, looking to slam him onto the tacks. Brian fights back with elbows to Aaron’s head, breaking free! Brian then hits a running headbutt, staggering Aaron, and follows up with a belly-to-belly suplex, sending Aaron back-first into the thumbtack! Aaron writhes in pain as the tacks pierce his skin. Brian goes to cover him but Lu Chen drags Aaron out to the apron to save him! On the outside, Griffin pulls a ladder from under the ring and sets it up! He starts climbing, aiming to leap onto Sujir, who is still recovering from the table crash! The fans LOSE IT as Griffin climbs the ladder and Sujir slowly stirs back up to his knee!
Maddie Murdock: And look at Griffin Hawkins! He’s going high-risk with that ladder! This is only the first match of the night, Alexander! INSANE!
Griffin reaches the top of the ladder and looks down at Sujir, who is slowly getting to his feet. Griffin leaps off with a crossbody, crashing down onto Sujir and sending both men sprawling onto the outside floor! The cheers ERUPT! The crowd is on their feet, chanting “OH SHIT!" as the carnage continues! Back in the ring, Brian is setting up for his HardKore DDT on Aaron, but Lu Chen Hudson gets involved, grabbing Brian's leg from the outside and tripping him up! Aaron takes advantage, hitting Brian with a running boot to the chest, then follows up with a snap suplex onto the thumbtacks. Both men are down and out on the mat and the fans go WILD!
Maddie Murdock: And Lu Chen Hudson just interfered! Brian Phillips is in serious trouble now after getting thrown into those thumbtacks as well! Look at all the blood! The canvas is stained and all of these men are beaten to a pulp tonight!!
Aaron goes for the cover on Brian, but before the referee can count, Griffin dives back into the ring, breaking up the pin with a chair shot to Aaron’s back! Griffin, battered and bloody, pulls Brian out of there to safety! He grabs a light tube from under the ring, slides back in and smashes it over Aaron’s head, then follows up with a DDT onto the broken glass. Aaron is busted open, blood pouring from his forehead! The fans are going nuts! Lu Chen smacks Griffin in the back with a trash can lid! Griffin stumbles forward into the ropes! She goes for another but Griffin pulls the top rope down and Lu Chen crashes to the outside!
Maddie Murdock: Aaron Hudson is a bloody mess! How much more can these competitors take tonight!?
Griffin signals to the crowd, pulling Aaron to his feet. He sets up for his finishing move, Shot In The Dark (Superkick) but Sujir re-enters the ring, spearing Griffin and sending both of them crashing into the thumbtacks. Sujir and Griffin roll around, each trying to gain the upper hand as they piece and bleed all over the mat! Both men struggle into the ropes where they yell in pain and try to recover! Meanwhile, Brian and Aaron, both covered in blood and glass, struggle to get to their feet, preparing for another brutal exchange! Brian with a right hand to Aaron! Then another! Then another then another! Brian boots Aaron down low and plants him with an impaler DDT and both men are down and out after that!
Maddie Murdock: This is one of the most brutal matches we’ve kicked off a night with! Can these guys even get up or does the ref need to end this?
Sujir gets up and runs at Brian who is using the ropes to stand! Brian ducks and sends Sujir over the top rope crashing onto Lu Chen on the outside! Aaron runs up and hits Brian with a running boot, sending him over the top rope to the outside! Aaron turns around RIGHT INTO Shot In The Dark (Superkick) from Griffin Hawkins and the fans ABSOLUTELY LOSE IT with cheers as Griffin falls onto Aaron and drapes his right arm on his chest! The crowd gets up and loud as the ref slides down for the count!

DING DING DING!
Patricia Downs: Here are your winners of this match… HardKore… Brian Phillips… and… the EHWF Extreme Champion… The Jukebox Hero… Griffin Hawkins!
Maddie Murdock: That was ruthless! That was sickening! Griffin and Brian pick up the win though!
Everyone is down. Everyone is hurt. Suddenly a MASSIVE explosion of pyro goes off on the stage and off of the turnbuckles as Lord Raab walks out, tightening his glove as the fans look on confused!
Maddie Murdock: Oh shit… I don’t like this!
Lord Raab gets over the top rope and steps into the ring! Lord Raab grabs Brian Phillips and brushes his face and hits him with a huge uppercut! Brian falls out of the ring! All the men are too hurt and too tired to get up let alone fight back! Lord Raab goes to the outside and throws Brian into the barricade head first and then grabs the table that was set up earlier in the night. He grabs some matches from his pocket and strikes half a dozen of them then lights up the table in a HUGE flame!
Maddie Murdock: I said this isn’t gonna be good and it’s NOT gonna be good tonight!
Lord Raab gets back in the ring. He grabs BOTH Sujir and Griffin by the necks! He picks them up and yells in their faces as they struggle, bleeding in his grip. Lord Raab picks both men up and hits them with a double Chokinator chokeslam over the top rope THROUGH the burning table! Griffin and Sujir EXPLODE through the flaming table! The fans ROAR as both Sujir and Griffin catch fire in the debris!
Maddie Murdock: First Sujir and Griffin fight over the EHWF Extreme Championship! Then Brian Phillips steaks a claim to it… now Lord Raab sending a message about it as well!
Griffin rolls around on fire until the flame puts itself out! Lu Chen starts patting out the flames on Sujir’s back and arms! Both Griffin and Sujir lie, burnt, bruised and bloodied on the outside as Lord Raab raises the EHWF Extreme Championship above his head to the booing fans. We fade out from the scene backstage.
In the back, we see Joanna Penkzee-Nelson getting ready for her match up. She’s lost in thought right now as she begins to speak.
Joanna Penkzee-Nelson: Well, here we are again. Another week, another match and a way to put myself out there.
She smirks at the comment.
Joanna Penkzee-Nelson: The last time around, I didn’t fair well against Kate Vega and lost my match. This happens and I shouldn’t dwell on it. Losses happen…
Joanna sighs at that comment
Joanna Penkzee-Nelson: However, I have to get back on track as this week, I’m teaming up with Brianna Rissi this week by taking on Konrad Raab and Lord Raab.
Joanna raises an eyebrow.
Joanna Penkzee-Nelson: Seems like we’re dealing with the Raab crew, don’t you think?
She shakes her head.
Joanna Penkzee-Nelson: Either way, tonight, it’s going to be a match that everyone should pay attention to, and i hope my tag team partner is ready for combat!
Joanna Penkzee-Nelson walks away for her match.
We cut to ringside where Patricia Downs is waiting with a mic.
Patricia Downs: This following contest is a tag team match set for one single fall!
It's Going Down by Linkin Park ft. The Executioners plays over the sound system as Lord Raab comes out first, ignoring the fans as he usually does, wearing a black and red stripy mask, black and red stripy trousers, black gloves and black boots and walks straight to the ring by stepping up the stairs and stepping over the top rope before Konrad Raab comes out moments later wearing blue and black suit with a blue and black face paint with blue gloves and black boots and high fives the fans while walking to the ring and slides in the ring with Lord Raab. Lord Raab crouches down in the corner moving backwards and forwards, rubbing his hands and moving his neck around while Konrad goes on the turnbuckle and raises his hands to the fans as they have mixed cheers and boos for the pair of them with Konrad getting down from the ring and fist bumps Lord Raab as Konrad stands with the pair of them looking at the ramp for their opponents to come out.
Patricia Downs: First up tonight… Lord Raab and Konrad Raab… The Brothers of Balance!
Butterflies by GAYLE kicks in as the fans are cheering Joanna Penkzee-Nelson as the fans are cheering for her. Out comes Joanna as she comes out of the back. She waves at some of the fans that are cheering for her and gives them fist bumps before rolling into the ring and warming up.
Patricia Downs: And next up… Their opponents… First… Joanna Penkzee-Nelson!
"I Will Not Bow" hits the PA System as multi coloured lights hits the arena and everyone in the crowd starts going nuts and crazy with cheers! Brianna Rissi appears on the stage and waves out to the screaming fans, performing some theatrics before she runs down the ramp and high fives the fans on her way down. She jumps up on the apron and flips her way into the ring where she makes her way to the ropes. Brianna celebrates against the ropes with the fans and makes her way to the ring, raising her arms and waiting for the match to begin.
Patricia Downs: And her partner tonight… Killer Bree… Brianna Rissi!
DING DING DING
The bell rings, and Brianna Rissi and Konrad Raab start the match. Brianna immediately goes on the offensive, charging at Konrad with a series of forearm smashes, backing him into the corner. She climbs the turnbuckle and begins delivering mounted punches, the crowd counting along. Konrad grabs her and throws her off, but Brianna lands on her feet and hits a dropkick, sending Konrad stumbling. Brianna looks out at Ana Somnia at the announce table and smirks! She turns around and hoists Konrad up and PLANTS him with an INSANE spinebuster that shakes the ring on impact!
Alexander Corvis: Brianna Rissi wasting no time, taking the fight to Konrad Raab! She just damn near embedded him into the canvas there with that huge spinebuster right after looking out at Ana Somnia who is here with us at the broadcast table!
Maddie Murdock: Ana, you and Brianna opened up the show tonight… Even though you two had that epic battle at Aftermath, it looks like things aren’t done between you two and now you’ve both agreed to go at it one more time at Meltdown in a couple of weeks!
Ana Somnia: Da, this is true. This is why I have decided to tolerate pageantry of commentary by being here tonight. I, too, have shared ring with Konrad Raab, though he’s already faring better against Brianna Rissi than he ever managed against Ana Somnia. If Brianna Rissi were smarter, she would spend less time worrying about me at this table and more time worrying about her opponent in this match.
Konrad shakes off the spinebuster and charges at Brianna, who ducks under his clothesline attempt and bounces off the ropes, hitting him with a flying crossbody! Brianna is up and she hits Lord Raab with an elbow to the head while he’s on the apron! Brianna runs back into the action! Konrad swings but she ducks! Brianna snaps a sidekick right into Konrad’s face! Konrad stumbles backwards in pain as Brianna springs off of the middle ropes and soars through the air, nailing Konrad with a springboard dropkick to the chest that sends Konrad sprawling across the ring back into his own corner! Konrad tags in Lord Raab, who steps over the ropes and into the ring with a menacing and angry look!
Alexander Corvis: Lord Raab is in, and things just got a lot more dangerous for Brianna! She elbowed him in the head just before and he’s been calling for the tag ever since and now the Masked German Monster wants to get his hands on Brianna!
Maddie Murdock: We already saw Lord Raab earlier in the night where he took out Griffin Hawkins, Sujir Thorn and Brian Phillips and damn near lit them on fire! This freak psycho is ruthless and it’s clear he wants the EHWF Extreme Championship as well now!
Ana Somnia: What he lacks in intellect, he makes up for in aggression and effort. Defeating Brothers of Balance in Tag Team New Age Deathmatch was predicated upon dismantling this—what was this word you used? Psycho? Brianna Rissi must do same if she hopes to emerge victorious.
Brianna rushes over, but Lord Raab grabs her by the hair and lifts her up for a chokeslam! Brianna fights back with elbows to Raab's head, breaking free! She dropkicks his knee, bringing him down to one knee, and then hits a shining wizard, dazing him! Brianna starts beating on Lord Raab’s head with big right hands as he’s on a knee! Brianna pulls Lord Raab up and tosses him into the corner but he knocks Brianna down with a big elbow! Lord Raab follows up with a big boot to the skull! Lord Raab wants Chokinator again but Brianna snaps a enziguri into his head from nowhere! The fans GO NUTS! Brianna bounces off of the ropes and takes the big man down through the air with a diving corkscrew body block! Lord Raab is down! Brianna makes the tag to Joanna Penkzee-Nelson, who comes in with a burst of energy, hitting Raab with a running knee strike to the face off of the top rope!
Alexander Corvis: Joanna Penkzee-Nelson in with a flying knee! They’re trying to keep the big man down! Brianna did a number on Lord Raab, showing off her speed and dominance in this one!
Maddie Murdock: This is great teamwork by Brianna and Joanna. They need to keep the pressure on in this contest as they’ve completely floored Lord Raab who is the difference maker for his team! No Lord Raab, no victory for the Brothers of Balance!
Ana Somnia: Da, just as I said. I do not yet know this… Penkzee-Nelson, but this speed of Brianna Rissi you mention? This is what upon which they must build momentum upon in order to win this fight. The confrontation of speed versus power is always… intriguing to witness.
Joanna follows up with a series of rapid-fire kicks to Raab's chest, then hits the ropes and delivers a low dropkick to his face! She goes for a cover, but Raab presses her off instantly, tossing her off with authority. Joanna looks shocked and Lord Raab sits up! Joanna backs off, apprehensive of the huge man! Joanna tags Brianna back in, and the two women double-team Raab with a double dropkick, sending him into the ropes! As he bounces back, they hit a double DDT, planting him on the mat. Brianna covers!

NO!
Konrad dives in and breaks it up!
Alexander Corvis: Double DDT! They’ve got Lord Raab reeling! They get a near fall but Konrad breaks it up! Joanna impressing there but she couldn’t get the big man down for even a 1 count!
Maddie Murdock: They’re working perfectly in tandem! A lot to watch in this contest as Brianna is back in and she’s taking it to the big man once again!
Ana Somnia: Knowing Brianna Rissi, she would blame this failure on her partner. She would not hold herself accountable for her own shortcomings. If she were to approach this match with greater focus, greater effort? Perhaps this fight would have already ended. Instead, she is agitated, distracted. This is not woman who pinned me at Aftermath. Nyet. This is someone else. This is someone… inferior.
Frustrated, Brianna pulls Lord Raab to his feet, only for him to lift her with a sudden spinebuster, driving her hard into the mat! Lord Raab tags in Konrad, who climbs to the top rope and hits a diving headbutt, connecting squarely with Brianna’s chest. He goes for the cover, but Joanna breaks it up! Ana smirks for a moment as she sees Brianna in pain! Joanna gets tossed out of the ring by Konrad Raab! The fans go NUTS as Konrad pursues Joanna on the apron!
Alexander Corvis: Joanna with the save! Konrad is PISSED after that one and now he’s taking it out on Joanna!
Maddie Murdock: Konrad and Lord Raab have been pretty unlucky lately but they’re still a tough team and an experienced team! Joanna is only a couple of matches in and is very inexperienced and now she’s getting beat up and she’s not even legal!!
Ana Somnia: Violence will always find way. Established veteran, rising rookie—this does not matter. Violence will always prove ultimate equalizer. If Joanna did not wish to endure this violence, she might have chosen better line of work. Brianna Rissi, for her shortcomings, seems to believe in and understand this violence better than most, this much I’m woman enough to admit.
Joanna and Konrad start trading blows, but Lord Raab re-enters the ring, grabbing Joanna from behind and tossing her out of the ring. Brianna uses the distraction to roll up Konrad for a near fall, Lord Raab breaks it up! Brianna bounces off of the ropes and dives on both Lord Raab and Konrad Raab and takes BOTH men out with a diving lariat! Lord Raab rolls out of the ring! Brianna then hits a spinning heel kick, staggering Konrad. She tags Joanna back in, and they hit a double suplex on Konrad, showing off their impressive teamwork. Brianna picks up Joanna overhead and slams her down on Konrad with an aided splash as the fans go wild and Joanna hooks both legs!

KICK OUT!
Alexander Corvis: Another double team maneuver! These two are in sync! Another near fall but it’s not looking good for The Brothers of Balance if they just can’t get anything going tonight! Brianna is all over both of them!
Maddie Murdock: Konrad Raab is in trouble! The Brothers of Balance need to find their rhythm! Ana, you’re clearly watching this one very closely now as Brianna really turns up the heat in this tag team contest!
Ana Somnia: This is Brianna Rissi I came out here to watch. I have said before I acknowledge talent Brianna Rissi must have in order to even reach this stage of her career, but she has yet to establish consistency with plying this talent, da? If I did not so wish to kick her lipstick through back of her skull, I would be able to turn this woman into elite combat sports athlete.
Joanna pulls Konrad up and whips him into the corner, following up with a handspring elbow. The fans go wild as Joanna springs off of the middle ropes and hits Konrad with a springboard knee to the chest and the fans go WILD! Joanna with a mean chop block to the back of Konrad’s leg takes him out! She tags Brianna back in, and they set up for another double team move. However, Lord Raab charges back into the ring, tackling both women with a double clothesline, turning the tide once again as the fans boo!
Alexander Corvis: Lord Raab with a devastating double clothesline! He’s not legal but he’s seen enough and he knows the flow was completely against his team tonight! Lord Raab and Konrad Raab continue to struggle here!
Maddie Murdock: The power and size of the Raabs might be all it takes to turn it all around tonight though!
Ana Somnia: You Americans have saying for this, nyet? Bigger they are, harder they fall? If Brianna Rissi’s team fails to reclaim momentum, and soon? I am not so sure she will even survive until Meltdown.
Raab pulls Brianna up and lifts her for a powerbomb, but Joanna hits a dropkick to his back, causing him to drop Brianna who counters into a hurricanrana! Joanna and Brianna hit Raab with a double superkick, sending him out of the ring as the fans GO NUTS! They turn their attention back to Konrad, who is slowly getting to his feet. Joanna hits a running knee to Konrad’s head, while Brianna climbs to the top rope, preparing for a high-risk move!
Alexander Corvis: Brianna going to the top rope! This could be it!
Maddie Murdock: High risk, high reward! What’s she got planned?
Ana Somnia: I speak from experience when I say this woman’s aerial arsenal is… effective. I possess neither necessary patience nor lack of self-preservation to utilize this tactic, myself, but for women like Brianna Rissi, Samantha Taylor, and my pupil, Astrid? This technique is what you Americans call a gamechanger.
Brianna launches off and nails Konrad with a missile dropkick! He goes sprawling to the ropes and tags in Lord Raab! Lord Raab runs at Brianna but she ducks him and bounces off of the ropes! They run at each other again and she nails Lord Raab with a SPEAR! Brianna takes down the much bigger man and the fans go BERSERK! Joanna runs in and clotheslines Konrad over the top rope to the outside as she lands on the apron! Lord Raab sits up and stands on his feet as he sways right into a Rissi Roundhouse from Brianna! Lord Raab goes down! Brianna covers him and looks out at Ana Somnia at the broadcast area as she does!

Maddie Murdock: I mean, you gotta hand it to her! She’s winning some really big ones at the moment and she’s on fire! She’s on a hot streak!
We cut to ringside where Patricia Downs is waiting with a mic.
Patricia Downs: This following contest is set for one fall!
The fans pick up and cheer as Naomi Banks’ tron plays and she makes her way out on the stage. Naomi comes down the ramp, slapping hands and hyping up the fans before sliding into the ring and getting ready to start her match.
Patricia Downs: First up tonight… Being accompanied by Sativa Biscotti… The Hood Mona Lisa… Naomi Banks!
The lights go out. 'Bad' by Royal Deluxe begins to play. A single spotlight shines over the entrance. Inside the spotlight Isis has her back turned to the camera. She turns around. Flexes. Holds her pose for a couple of seconds. Then she saunters down to the ring with the spotlights following her. Upon reaching the ring she walks up the ring steps, walks across the apron. She signals for the referee to come over to open the ropes. The ref obliges. She walks to the center of the ring, awaiting her are three full length mirrors. The lights in the arena come alive. Isis turns around to look at herself in the mirror. She flexes to her hearts content admiring what a physical specimen she is. She turns around, drops to the mat, performs push ups in a manner where she is simply showing off. Isis walks over to the turnbuckle, she leans back as she watches people remove the mirrors from the ring. She remains there until the match starts.
Patricia Downs: And next up… Her opponent tonight… Being accompanied by one half of the EHWF World Tag Team Champions, Nephthys… She is the other half of the EHWF World Tag Team Champions… The God of Destruction… ISIS!
DING DING DING
Both women are circling each other as the fans go NUTS! ISIS swings but Naomi is too quick and gets under ISIS and hits her with a knee to the side! The two women start to trade blows!

She goes to kick her but ISIS grabs her leg and flips her but Naomi back flips and lands on her feet then hits ISIS with a forearm to the chest! ISIS is unfazed and Naomi is in shock as ISIS plants Naomi with a big STO!
Alexander Corvis: We saw these two go at it for the EHWF Global Championship once before and ISIS came out on top that time. They’d meet again in a 3 way match where ISIS was once again the winner! Naomi wants to change the tide of their encounters tonight!
Maddie Murdock: Easier said than done! Naomi Banks is an amazing athlete, so powerful and fast but ISIS is just an unstoppable force of pure energy and power! She’s been running through EVERYONE for months now!
As Naomi struggled to get up, ISIS lifted her effortlessly into the air and slammed her down with a thunderous suplex. Naomi writhed in pain on the mat. But ISIS wasn't finished yet. She scooped Naomi up again and ran across the ring before slamming her down with a huge running powerslam! Naomi cried out in pain as ISIS stood over her, yelling for her to get back up. Naomi fought her way back to her feet and launched herself at ISIS with a series of kicks and elbow strikes! The fans go LOUD! ISIS stumbled backwards, momentarily stunned by the flurry of blows, but quickly regained her composure. She grabbed Naomi by the hair and lifted her into the air, holding her up for a moment before slamming her down with a devastating Glamslam! The crowd erupted as Naomi lay motionless on the mat. ISIS sat on Naomi and made the cover!

Naomi springs back off of the ropes and nails a bent over ISIS with a super quick running DDT and the fans lose it! Naomi fights a bit of control back!

Naomi runs through and hits ISIS with the Tiger Feint Kick! ISIS backs off all groggy into the centre of the ring! Naomi goes to finish the move and gets to the top rope and leaps off onto ISIS’ neck and shoulders but ISIS holds her up and throws Naomi up in the air with amazing strength and catches her midair, pinning her arms behind her! The fans ERUPT! Naomi screams as ISIS holds her up but ISIS plants Naomi on her face and torso with a MASSIVE Glamslam! The fans all go NUTS! Naomi quickly rolls out on the apron for safety!
Alexander Corvis: SHIT! That was CRUSHING! Naomi wanted something big and ISIS freaking threw her in the air, caught her and PLANTED her into the canvas! That could have been the end of Naomi then and there!
Maddie Murdock: Naomi just can’t get her hands around this match! She can’t build much at all! ISIS has an answer for everything it seems!

DING DING DING!
Patricia Downs: Here is your winner… one half of the EHWF World Tag Team Champions… The God of Destruction… ISIS!
Alexander Corvis: Massive win for ISIS who just can’t be stopped! I can’t remember the last time she lost a match!
Maddie Murdock: She only has one damn loss to her name and seemingly nothing can stop this beast!
ISIS and Naomi have a staredown in the ring as Naomi is seated on the mat, hurt and tired. ISS looks over at her but the lights suddenly go out…
Alexander Corvis: SHIT! The lights are out! What now dammit!? What the fuck now!?
Maddie Murdock: Lights out! We can’t see shit!
Suddenly the tron booms on and we can faintly see ISIS and Naomi still in the ring. Sativa and Nephthys watch from the outside as a video of chains flies through that eventually connects to a red beating heart… After a while… The heart on the screen turns black and Remi Skyfire’s music hits!
Alexander Corvis: NO WAY! NO WAY! NO FUCKING WAY!!
Maddie Murdock: She’s back! Look out!!
Remi appears in the ring behind ISIS and Naomi! ISIS turns around! The fans LOSE IT as Remi looking far more athletic and powerfully built readies herself as ISIS turns around! Remi explodes off and starts hitting ISIS with big right hands!
Alexander Corvis: Remi Fucking Skyfire is BACK! She’s BACK! Remi Skyfire is here and she’s taking it to ISIS right now! What the heck is she doing?!

Remi bounces off of the ropes again and her speed is RIDICULOUS as Remi hits Naomi with a SPEAR!
Alexander Corvis: SPEAR! SPEAR! Naomi just got rocked! Remi cleaning house here on her return and sending a clear message!
Maddie Murdock: What a freaking blur! How the fuck did the fastest person on the planet get even fucking faster!?!
ISIS is back in the ring and she drops Remi with a right hand then comes off of the ropes and nails Remi with a big clothesline! ISIS grabs Remi and throws her into the corner then starts hitting her with big right hands! Another another another another another! She rocks Remi with another and another! It’s brutal! She whips Remi into the next corner! Remi leaps up to the top rope with amazing athletic ability! Remi leaps off and turns midair for The Sex Pistol (The Magnum) but ISIS ducks it and Remi barrel roles up to her feet agains the ropes! ISIS runs at her but again Remi pulls the top rope down and ISIS crashes to the outside! ISIS runs back in just as Remi slides out of the ring and a gang of producers and refs swarm the area!
Alexander Corvis: JEEZ! Shit just got REAL! I can tell you I had no idea that was gonna happen! I didn’t expect THIS tonight!
Maddie Murdock: Remi Skyfire is back and she just rained on ISIS’s parade here tonight and made a massive impact!
Mya Gomez’s music hits and the fans go wild as the action is broken up by staff. Remi Skyfire looks back at the stage from the ramp as Naomi and ISIS yell out to her! Mya Gomez comes out on the stage and gestures for calm.
Mya Gomez: All right! That’ll be enough of that! Remi, welcome back, I can see you’re just as fiery as ever and you couldn’t wait to get out here tonight… so that’s great!
Remi nods along and raises her arms to the cheering fans.
Mya Gomez: I’m glad you’re all reacquainted with each other tonight because I was informed that as General Manager of Chaos, I have quite a challenge ahead of me at Meltdown. I have to put on a better Meltdown Chamber than the Mayhem Meltdown Chamber… Looking at Mayhem, my father and my uncle already have their Chamber participants set for Mayhem… Me, I want to do things a little different this year!
Mya Gomez takes a few steps down the ramp as she locks eyes with Remi, ISIS and Naomi.
Mya Gomez: The Mayhem Meltdown Chamber is all Male this year… So the Chaos Meltdown Chamber is going to be all Female this year… And I have the perfect people in mind to enter the chamber!
The fans go NUTS as Mya smirks and ISIS is in the ring raising her arms and pointing to herself with the crowd getting louder.
Mya Gomez: I see 3 former EHWF Global Champions in front of me right now! 3 of the greatest fighters on the planet… So… Remi Skyfire, ISIS and Naomi Banks will be entering the Chaos Meltdown Chamber to challenger Casey Holliday for the EHWF Unified Global Championship!
Alexander Corvis: OH SHIT! That’s huge! Remi just got back! ISIS, Remi and Naomi all join Casey Holliday in the EHWF Chaos Meltdown Chamber!
Maddie Murdock: I’m sure Casey Holliday will be thrilled to learn this!
The fans LOSE IT as Remi, ISIS and Naomi all calm down and seem pleased with the announcement!
Mya Gomez: And I know what Casey Holliday is gonna say! She’s gonna say that Remi just came back, she doesn’t deserve this entry… Or… Naomi lost to her at Final Destination, she doesn’t deserve this entry. Well, that’s just not true because these are the best and brightest on Chaos… Which means Casey won’t be happy with my next piece of news…
The fans get louder as Mya looks down the barrel of the camera and smirks.
Mya Gomez: We’re all about opportunity! We’re all about change and we’re all about being new and vibrant which is how we’re different and better than Mayhem! Athena Veronica made her debut in EHWF tonight. You all saw what she had to say earlier in the night… She’s a very highly sought after talent in this industry and I’m really glad I could get her on the Chaos brand… And to do that, I’m announcing that she’ll be entering the EHWF Chaos Meltdown Chamber for the EHWF Unified Global Championship!
Alexander Corvis: Athena Veronica! One of the most exciting and popular talents out there! She’s just signed to EHWF and already she’s in the chamber!
Maddie Murdock: That’s shaping up to be one of the most intense Meltdown Chamber matches of all time but we still have one person left to enter!
The fans go CRAZY as Remi, ISIS and Naomi look less impressed but Mya backs up the stage and lets off with a short wave.
Mya Gomez: Which means I just need to find one more competitor to make this the best EHWF Meltdown Chamber ever… so be prepared for next week because I’ll be on the hunt for something that’s going to make this Meltdown Chamber match GO OFF!!
Mya’s music hits as she leaves the area. A smirking Remi Skyfire turns her head back to ISIS and Naomi in the ring as the fans are going CRAZY and we fade out backstage.
Katelyn De La Vega is excited by this opportunity to face a fellow champion, Casey Holiday, in competition. She is dressed for competition in full gear, ready to rock, but there is a bit of trepidation in the moment, trepidation that she shall address here and now. She steps into the camera’s frame, hands resting on the championship around her waist, the EHWF colors hung proudly behind her on the wall of the set she resides in.
KDV: So I thought that when ISIS, her sister, and myself all took care of the Age of the Fall that it was the end of that story, the book closed and the sun set upon the horizon. So here I am in the biggest match of my career, no my life, against *The* Global Champion, Casey Holiday. Regardless as to how you might feel about her, she is one of the biggest and best names in EHWF.
She tilts her head forward.
KDV: I’m in an incredible battle here, for I know I have no friends here and now to stand with me, surrounded by the Age of the Fall and the Global Champion, one who is an opportunist who will use everything she has against me and she’s going to need it. She’s a smart wrestler and given that, by comparison, I’m a rookie who’s only been in the business for a year and a half, but…
Kate removes the championship from her waist and holds it up in front of the camera.
KDV: …How many rookies do you know would have won a championship against five seasoned and tenured wrestlers, some of them long time veterans such as Lord Raab and Amber Fein? I’m so proud of myself for that night and the many that have followed, beating opponent after opponent, only to now find myself face to face with the Global Champion of EHWF, Casey Holiday, in a main event match no less.
A small smile crosses her lips as she looks down at the belt in her hands.
KDV: Not bad for someone who started her wrestling career as a stand in for someone else, doomed to be a forgettable replacement.
She places the belt upon one of her broad shoulders and looks upon the camera with the pride of accomplishment.
KDV: Casey, I hope that you will face me with honor, but I know that you won’t. You’ll use the Age of the Fall against me any which way you can in order to try and be the dominant champion that you think you are, but I’m going to test you and press you in ways that few ever have. I promise you this, for the lessons I have learned along the way that have led me to this moment, main eventing a card against the holder of the highest belt in the land, have primed me well. I am ready, are you?
Ms. De La Vega holds the championship up towards the camera while staring into the camera with all the intensity she can muster.
KDV: IT….IS….SHOWTIME!!!
She then turns, lifts her leg, and spins around with a mighty clomping stomp of her boot upon the floor for emphasis. With nothing further to say, Kate turns and exits the frame; stage left.
Casey Holliday is backstage with her Unified Global Championship around her waist. She managed to retain said title against Braddock and yet, this doesn’t appear to be enough for her to be happy in any way. Still, she’s approaching the match that she has coming up just like any other and her intentions are definitely going to be clear enough once she begins to express her thoughts.
Casey Holliday: I made a statement at Braddock’s expense when I retained this championship against him. It wasn’t just winning the match in and of itself. It was what I did after the bell. You had the commentary team be like “all this just over a poster?”
Casey pauses and scoffs at this very question before she continues on.
Casey Holliday: Please, I am by no means superficial. The poster only scratched the surface of it. There were plenty of other examples of why I had to make the statement that I had to make. Look at the Pay-Per-View that we just happened to have where my match wasn’t even the main event the way it should’ve been. In fact, Brianna Rossi and Ana Somnia was more hyped up of a match than I was. It stands to reason even though someone like me is the champion that this company wants to hang on to the same old thing and cater Chaos to the “old names”.
I’m not going to stand for that and when I basically routed Braddock out of the building a few weeks ago, that was something that I made very clear. Perhaps, when you look at this match, they might have gotten the message clear enough. I mean hey, at least I am in the main event where I belong tonight. That’s something that I’ve got going for me. Katelyn De La Vega is going to be a tough customer to deal with and I would know all about that considering I even teamed with her once when she walked in the door.
Hell, she even won the Showtime Championship after I traded that belt in to get the shot at the belt that I have right now…
You’re welcome for making room for you there, Kate. But something I do want to say is that I’ve got to keep things going and I’ve got to maintain my strong dominance! I have to defend this championship against all reasonable odds very fucking soon in this Meltdown Chamber thing and the last thing that I need right now is any form of distraction that can fuck me over…
….aaaaaaand, this match is a lumberjack match with the Age of the Fall being involved…
Casey pauses again, this time to let out a sigh and she even adds an eye roll on top of that.
Casey Holliday: I have two issues with this. For one, the Age of the Fall just can’t seem to fucking go away as they continue to be the wannabes that they are, acting as if they are the big bads and the evil villains and the kingpins around here. Two? That group? They’ve had more recent run ins with Kate than I do. Basically, they’re HER problem. Not mine… HERS…
But they want every title so damn bad, huh?
Listen, here’s what I have to say to the Age of the Fall. I’m not an enemy of yours. I just happen to have something that I want, something that I feel like none of you are good enough to have as a whole and something that I can definitely be confident enough to say that you are NOT going to win from me. Go to Mayhem and try winning what amounts to easier titles to win from easier champions to dethrone because Chaos is MY show and MY terrain and I’m sick and tired of other people trying to interfere on that. I’m the one with THE title that everyone wants and I don’t need help from any of you people to beat Katelyn De La Vega. That is nothing but a pure and simple FACT.
Katelyn, really… I don’t have a personal thing against you and you’re going to be a far more worthy opponent than Braddock could ever hope to be. But at the end of the day, you should know right out of the gate that I don’t take kindly to people like you carrying their baggage into my sightline just like this match clearly illustrates. I’m going to make sure that you stay safe and just focus on my hand me down championship that you only won because I vacated in the first place.
I’m going to beat you…
And if necessary, you’ll be used as a message also… just like Braddock was…
Haters. Gonna. Hate.
Casey then scoffs once more before she leaves the room to a chorus of boos as the scene fades out.
We cut in-ring where Patricia Downs is waiting with a mic.
Patricia Downs: This following main event contest is a Champion vs. Champion Lumberjack match and it’s set for one fall!
Katelyn’s music plays over the house speakers, “Hero” by Victorius. Katelyn De La Vega walks through those curtains to the cheers of a large crowd packing the Arena tight with bodies elbow to elbow, chairs filled, and some could argue that there may have been more bodies than seats. The amazonian brunette raises her fist into the air to a large pop from the crowd. She then runs down the aisle and slides into the ring. Promptly, Kate rolls to her feet and shoves her fist into the air again, this time with a loud shout.
She cuts an impressive figure in her new black leather vest, an ornate winged V on her back in bright teal. Her attire is simple yet practical, black trunks and boots with sensible knee pads, a sports top with another winged V that runs along her neck line and down the front of her chest, this one white with blue highlights, and fingerless gloves to complete the look.
Kate removes her vest and drapes it atop her corner, then leans back against it, arms draped upon the ropes with a serious gaze as she awaits the start of the match.
Patricia Downs: First up tonight… She is the EHWF Showtime Champion… Katelyn De La Vega!
The crowd boos loudly as the riffs of "Strange Girl" by Halestorm hits the speakers. After about a minute, Casey Holliday walks out through the curtains and the first thing that is noticeable is her arrogance as she walks down the ramp. She does much scoffing and laughing as she hears the fans continue to get on her case. When she enters the ring, she ignores the booing crowd, which only serves to incite them to cheer her louder. Casey has a laugh to herself at this, as she starts to focus on her match and the song fades.
Patricia Downs: And next up… Her opponent tonight… She is the EHWF Unified Global Champion… The Star Pupil… Casey Holliday!

The ring is cleared and Rebecca and Katelyn start celebrating as Rebecca hands Katelyn her EHWF Showtime Championship belt! Katelyn picks up Rebecca and the two hug and celebrate in the ring as Age of Fall are FURIOUS on the outside!
Alexander Corvis: Maddie?! Maddie? Where the fuck are you going?
Maddie Murdock: Fuck this bitch!
We see Maddie Murdock throw her headset aside and storm up the ramp, still pissed off and angry with Casey throwing Misty Vega at her and insulting her earlier! Maddie disappears as Rebecca and Katelyn hold up their briefcase and title belt to the cheering fans!
Alexander Corvis: Rebecca and Katelyn standing tall as they clear house and show The Age of Fall they won’t be intimidated! I have NO IDEA where my broadcast partner Maddie Murdock just went? Can we get a camera backstage?
As Katelyn’s music plays, Age of Fall back up the ramp, raging at Katelyn and Rebecca and swearing revenge as we cut backstage.
We see Casey Holliday pissed off dragging her title belts behind her and holding her neck in pain as she brushes past people and knocks things over! The fans watching on the tron back in the arena cheer as they see Casey Holliday get back to the production area.
Maddie Murdock: Casey! Hey, bitch!
We see Maddie Murdock walk through the backstage production area and call out Casey Holliday who viciously turns around and spots Maddie approaching her!
Maddie Murdock: What’s your fucking problem, huh?!

Casey hoists Maddie up on her back and puts her through the table! Maddie lies in the debris and moans in pain as Casey flicks her hair out of the way as she stands over the hurt Maddie Murdock! Casey puts her arms up as refs and producers come through and break it up and check on Maddie on the floor!
Alexander Corvis: SHIT! Casey crushed Maddie backstage!
Casey bends down and picks up her title belts as she watches the swarm of people around the downed Maddie Murdock.
Alexander Corvis: Well ladies and gentlemen that’s all we have time for! I can’t believe what’s unfolded tonight and next week is gonna be INSANE! We’ll see you next week! Good night and be safe!!
Alexander Corvis: Ladies and Gentlemen! We welcome you to Tuesday Night Chaos live from The Pit here in Albuquerque, New Mexico! What a massive night this is gonna be after everything that has been building here on Chaos and the huge fallout after Aftermath! Last week at Aftermath, Casey Holliday continued to prove why she's the most must see and skilled competitors in EHWF as the EHWF Unified Global Champion continued her undefeated streak by defeating Braddock one on one! Now Casey Holliday realises that a HUGE challenge is in front of her in the form of the Chaos Meltdown Chamber where she will need to defend her championship. Katelyn De La Vega is still finding her feet here in EHWF but last week continued her own undefeated streak where she defended her EHWF Showtime Championship against The Age of Fall. Unfortunately The Age of Fall aren't finished with Katelyn De La Vega and they've continued to state they want to take over Chaos and take all of the titles. Tonight will be an Age of Fall Lumberjack match where all of the members of The Age of Fall will be outside the ring for this Champion vs. Champion clash against EHWF Unified Global Champion Casey Holliday and EHWF Showtime Champion Katelyn De La Vega. The Age of Fall being around the ring benefit no one but it's going to be interesting to see how it affects this match against these two undefeated competitors!
Maddie Murdock: Brianna Rissi did what so few have been able to accomplish in EHWF and that's defeat Ana Somnia one on one. At Aftermath Brianna Rissi proved why she's one of the greatest fighters on the planet with a strong win over Ana Somnia. Tonight Brianna will team up with the rookie, Joanna Penkzee-Nelson to take on The Brothers of Balance as Brianna now builds a campaign to get back the EHWF Unified Global Championship which she's entitled to a rematch for. Ana Somnia will be out there on commentary tonight to add to the intensity of this contest!
Alexander Corvis: ISIS and Naomi Banks are no strangers to each other but with the Chaos Meltdown Chamber around the corner, everyone wants to impress tonight! In this main event caliber match, ISIS and Naomi Banks will go one on one once again for bragging rights! ISIS and Nephthys have been on fire lately whereas Naomi Banks and Sativa Biscotti return to Chaos after some time off. The winner of this one will no doubt send a massive message to the Chaos Meltdown Chamber and to the EHWF Unified Global Champion as well! Don't miss this massive co-main event!
Maddie Murdock: Griffin Hawkins dethroned Sujir Thorn and his incredibly impressive EHWF Extreme Championship reign - something that no one else was able to do. Now Insidious are PISSED and they want control of Chaos back. Brian Phillips showed up after a long damn time on the shelf and provided backup to Griffin Hawkins. HardKore Brian Phillips is back and we all know he wants the EHWF Extreme Championship but Sujir wants the belt back as well. Tonight Griffin and Brian team up to take on Insidious in a tag team contest!
Alexander Corvis: And we’re not only gonna hear from Joanna Penkzee Nelson, Griffin Hawkins and of course the EHWF Unified Global Champion, Casey Holliday but we’re also gonna learn just who is going to be in the EHWF Chaos Meltdown Chamber and just how is going to be challenging Casey Holliday inside the Chamber for the EHWF Unified Global Championship! I can’t wait for Meltdown, Maddie!
Maddie Murdock: This is going to be one incredible night! Lets start the show, Alexander!
The arena dims into a shadowy anticipation, punctuated only by the occasional flash of pink and gold pyrotechnics that crackle along the entrance ramp before a MASSIVE gold explosion of sparks hits on the stage!
FALL!
A hush falls over the crowd as the melody of “I Will Not Bow” by Breaking Benjamin fills the air, stirring a mass of CHEERS from the fans in the crowd!. Suddenly, the arena erupts into a barrage of cheers and screams as BRIANNA RISSI emerges at the apex of the ramp!
Brianna’s presence is confident coming off of her huge win against Ana Somnia at Aftermath as she smirks and drops her sunglasses looking out at the fans who are going BERSERK right now! With every step, her pink hair dances around her shoulders against the dimly lit backdrop. Dressed in a sleek tight black crop top that accentuates her voluptuous chest and toned physique and tiny black shorts that emphasise her athleticism, she exudes a mix of strength and confidence tonight.
ALEXANDER CORVIS: “It’s too early for her match, which means, I think, that we’re about to hear what comes next for Killer Bree!”
MADDIE MURDOCK: “This might’ve been a career-defining win for Brianna Rissi, Alex. The future is probably going to be pretty bright for her.”
As she steps down the entrance ramp with her black high heels clicking on the metal floor, “I Will Not Bow” crescendos and Brianna strides purposefully down the ramp, her gaze fixed forward at the ring
PATRICIA DOWNS: “Ladies and gentlemen… Please welcome at this time…”
“BRRRIIIAAAANNNNAAAA...”
“...KILLER BREE...”
“RRRIIISSSSSSIII!”
The arena lights cast dynamic shadows across her face as she gets to the apron and looks up at the fans. The crowd chant her name as she smirks and turns back to the ring. Reaching the ring apron, Brianna pauses momentarily, her eyes scanning the cheering crowd with a confident grin. She then ascends the ring steps holding her arms up as she wipes her heels on the canvas of the apron. Stepping through the ropes, she stands tall in the centre of the ring, her stance poised and ready for action as she bobs up and down a little. The cheers of the crowd turned to a deafening roar, echoing throughout the arena.
As the final notes of her theme song fade into the background, she raises her arms and flexes as she leaps up to the top turnbuckle and gets the crowd going again. The atmosphere is electric as Brianna backflips off of the ropes, full of energy as she takes a mic and waits for the insane crowd cheers to quiet down so she can begin.

The atmosphere is electric as Brianna backflips off of the ropes, full of energy as she takes a mic and waits for the insane crowd cheers to quiet down so she can begin.
“Well… What can I say?”
Brianna fervently looks up and takes in the defiant cheers from the excited fans as she takes a few seconds.
“Ana Somnia and Brianna Rissi went into Aftermath - one on one. A match no one expected to see at that event but a contest that was on everyone’s dream matches list! They’re calling it one of the best matches of all time. One of the greatest contests in pro-wrestling. It’s true we stole the show at Aftermath and I’m sure no one expected it to end the way it did, for more reasons than one.”
The camera begins to focus in on Brianna’s face as she stares straight down the barrel with an emotive expression of pure defiance and determination etched in her face.
“Ana Somnia fucked up when she targeted and assaulted my family. Ana Somnia thought she was walking into just any other match she’s been in with just anyone else. She’s used to dominating and she’s used to winning and that’s fine, but the problem is, she wasn’t up against JUST anyone. We beat the SHIT out of each other and put on a contest filled with levels of skill that others can only dream about… but this match was over before it even began. When Somnia put her hands on MY family, the deal was already sealed… I wasn’t going to let her walk out of that contest as the winner.”
The cheers erupt again as Brianna backs off, the intensity of that tirade still radiating through the vibrating arena and all of its ecstatic fans tonight!
“At Aftermath, I became the fourth person in EHWF history to beat Ana Somnia in a contest. Killer Carter, Remi Skyfire, Naomi Banks, and now… Brianna Rissi. Killer Carter, a rather uninspired flash in the pan competitor who only got incredibly lucky against Ana Somnia was the first. Remi Skyfire was Ana’s first true challenge but still, a woman I beat for the EHWF Global Championship. Naomi Banks had the heart to beat Ana but she didn’t do it alone and every time Naomi and I have met one on one she’s always fallen to me… THIS… ALL OF THIS should speak on what kind of competitor I am, both inside the ring and outside of it. This was a fight of competition, a fight of honour and integrity, but most of all? It was a fight for family…”
Brianna’s voice trails lower as the fans pick back up, now seemingly hanging on her every word as she gets more and more alluring and direct in the tone of every word that she delivers in the centre of the ring!
“But that’s all back at Aftermath now. I defeated Ana Somnia one on one and the world saw her shake my hand, so as far as I’m concerned… that’s that. Now… I know EHWF Meltdown is coming up next and it’s going to be in NICE, FRANCE!”
The crowd ERUPTS yet again as we pan across seeing all of their cheering faces and stop at the tron which displays the EHWF Meltdown logo before cutting back to Brianna.
“I’ve been in a few Meltdown Chambers in my time and I’ve won every single one I’ve ever been in! If you want to look at my current rankings around this place… well, I just defeated Chaos’s greatest challenge and I technically still have my rematch for the EHWF Unified Global Championship as I DID successfully defend the title. I’m coming off of a HUGE victory, the biggest of the night at Aftermath in fact, and it should be NO surprise that my intention is to regain my EHWF Unified Global Championship. So with Meltdown just tw—”
YOU MAKE ME VICIOUS!
WATCH AS I MAKE THE PAIN MY MISTRESS!
YOU CAN CALL ME MISS MALICIOUS,
I'LL DRESS YOU UP IN STITCHES;
NO, I CANNOT RESIST THIS!
WATCH AS I MAKE THE PAIN MY MISTRESS!
YOU CAN CALL ME MISS MALICIOUS,
I'LL DRESS YOU UP IN STITCHES;
NO, I CANNOT RESIST THIS!
“Vicious” by Halestorm kicking through the P.A. demands the attention of every fan in Albuquerque as an enveloping arterial red lighting overwhelms the entire venue. Pandemonium courses through the capacity crowd while a thick fog pervades the entrance stage, emphasizing the foreboding atmosphere. As Lzzy Hale's throaty, powerful vocals continue over the band’s harsh guitars and a vibrant white flashing light overtakes the arena, the Devil Herself saunters through the curtain and steps into the ominous mise-en-scène before her.
ANA SOMNIA will not compete tonight, and as such, she now appears in civilian attire. She sports a guardsman red pair of compression shorts, white Nike socks, a white pair of mid-top Nike Court Royale 2s with guardsman red swooshes, and a cropped, sleeveless WCAFC x NO KNOWN PREDATORS sweatshirt. Guardsman red lipstick consummates her ensemble. The very same lipstick appears even more disdainful and sinister as those lips twist into a malicious sneer.
ALEXANDER CORVIS: “Somnia appears in high spirits even in light of the loss, Maddie—and maybe even more importantly? In light of what I hear was a number of broken ribs suffered at the hands of the woman already in the ring at Aftermath!”
MADDIE MURDOCK: “Rissi’s never been better than she was at Aftermath, that much I’m convinced about already… which is crazy when you think about the fact she’s been EHWF Unified Global Champion!”
The sneer persists as she allows her malevolent gaze to glide from one side of the venue to the other before she returns her focus to center, settling her vision on the ring on the far end of the entrance ramp—or perhaps, more accurately, the woman inside it. Ana tilts her chin upward and draws sharp breath through her nose while twitching her upper lip in animalistic resent, baring her teeth to the fans with a hearty chuckle. She soon bows her head forward and nefariously glares up through her furrowed brow at her theater of war ahead.
PATRICIA DOWNS: “Ladies and gentlemen… Introducing the EHWF HALL OF FAMER... She is the DEVIL HERSELF... LADY DEATH... The WAR WHISPERER... The UNDISPUTED...”
“AAAANNNNAAAA...”
“...THE LAST EMPRESS...”
“SSSOOOMMMNNNIIIAAA!”
The Undisputed then stomps down the ring to ringside, confidence pouring out of every imperious movement she makes, even despite the loss at Aftermath. Once she reaches the foot of the entrance ramp, Somnia circumnavigates the ring, strutting to the timekeeper’s area, whence she retrieves a microphone—all without removing her gaze from the agitated woman inside the ring. She then ventures to the bottom of the steel stairs at the hard camera’s immediate right leading up to the ring apron.
ALEXANDER CORVIS: “Seeing her up close right now, you would never guess the damage she sustained at Aftermath. These two beat the shit out of one another for what felt like a lifetime.”
MADDIE MURDOCK: “Only one of them—as far as I know—had broken bones as a result! That’s all I’m saying!”
ALEXANDER CORVIS: “Careful, you don’t want to incur the wrath of the Pound-for-Pound Most Potent Professional Athlete on the Planet!”
MADDIE MURDOCK: “Right now, I think Brianna Rissi has to worry about that a little more immediately…”
She hastens up the stairs with purpose and saunters out about halfway across the apron on the side of the ring nearest the commentary tables. There, Somnia scrapes the bottoms of her kicks against the apron. Still without breaking her gaze from its death-grip on the woman whose hand she shook the last time they shared the ring, Ana bends through the ropes and into the squared circle.
As raucous jeers rain down upon Somnia, she squares herself to Rissi, sharply cocks her head to either side to crack her neck in either direction, and shifts her weight from one hip to the other. Ana then narrows her eyes toward the woman standing opposite her, the crowd loud in their reaction to the two coming together for another staredown. A brief moment passes before she then draws breath through her nose and lifts the microphone to her lips, ready to give utterance to her invariably venomous vitriol.
“Nyet... nyet... nyet,” rejects the Russian, her free hand repeatedly tapping the air as if calming a horse. “I know you are… smarter than this… nyet? Despite your youth, you were not born yesterday, were you?” Ana’s eyebrow lifts skyward and she inches closer to Rissi, whose eyes narrow at the Coming Doom. “Technicalities are crutch, сука. They are no more and no better than excuse. You are better than this, nyet? You must be to have… how did you say..?” Ana frowns inquisitively, though she knows exactly how Rissi had chosen to phrase it. “‘Defeated’ Ana Somnia? But… did you... defeat Ana Somnia?” Almost immediately, boos descend upon the ring. “Of all four who have pinned Ana Somnia here in EHWF, nobody has truly defeated Ana Somnia.” Again Somnia must pause to allow the audience to jeer fervently, though she cuts through it as it begins its decrescendo. “Aside from perhaps you, all three others—at most—can consider themselves challenger. Not one of them can consider themselves contender. And despite their greatest efforts, their loftiest ambitions? Despite yours? I still stand.”
The fans really let her have it again, prompting her to shake her head and lower the microphone for a moment. She cocks her side from side to side to crack her neck (loudly enough for the microphones to pick up) before sighing and reuniting the microphone with her cold and calculated timbre.
“A loss is not defeat,” explains the Bantamweight Butcher. “As long as I have breathed, as long as I have bled, I have never met defeat. And as long as I breathe… as long as I bleed... I will not know defeat.” Somnia flicks the pad of her thumb along the inner edge of her top two front teeth, a traditional Russian gesture of guarantee. “You own lone win against me, da... but torch I carry in pursuit of Greater Good cannot be extinguished so easily.” Somnia grins and narrows her eyes at her rival simultaneously; her free hand adjusts the neck of her sweatshirt before she continues. “With this said? Do not mistake these words, Brianna Rissi.” Hissing, Somnia tucks some of her platinum blonde hair behind her ear with her free hand. “You beat me at Aftermath. You did this honestly and you did this at great personal cost. For this and this alone, as you already know, you have my respect.” Ana nods, briefly glancing down at the hand she shook at Aftermath. “But while this is true—you did this—we are simply… not finished.”
The crowd erupts, though they’re not quite sure how to react, making their explosive din mixed in nature.
“Pinning Ana Somnia is insufficient, ребенок,” laughs off Lady Death. “This will not hinder my championship pursuit for one single moment! My loftier ambition is undaunted by specter of loss. If you are worth your salt, you would feel this same way.” Ana gestures between Rissi and herself with a light nod for emphasis. “But instead, you stand here posturing... endeavoring—no, daring to dictate landscape of division? This is arrogance. This is audacity. But what this is not… is fire.” Somnia shakes her head with contempt before squaring herself to Rissi again, eyes narrowed. “Where is fire from last Chaos? Where is fire I saw when you make empty threat to knock me out, hmm? Do not allow triumph in battle allow you to lose focus of war.” Inching ever closer to Rissi, the Final Terror eventually gets so close Rissi can feel her breath on her skin. “Champions are forged in fire, da? But do you truly, truly believe Brianna Rissi is equal to this task? Be honest, милая... because I... am not so sure.”
The ring is set, the atmosphere electric as the two women stare each other down. The audience is on the edge of their seats, anticipating the confrontation between them. Brianna Rissi, emotionally ticked off now, takes a step back and grins as she looks out at the fans and holds her hands out at Ana in display.
ANA SOMNIA will not compete tonight, and as such, she now appears in civilian attire. She sports a guardsman red pair of compression shorts, white Nike socks, a white pair of mid-top Nike Court Royale 2s with guardsman red swooshes, and a cropped, sleeveless WCAFC x NO KNOWN PREDATORS sweatshirt. Guardsman red lipstick consummates her ensemble. The very same lipstick appears even more disdainful and sinister as those lips twist into a malicious sneer.
ALEXANDER CORVIS: “Somnia appears in high spirits even in light of the loss, Maddie—and maybe even more importantly? In light of what I hear was a number of broken ribs suffered at the hands of the woman already in the ring at Aftermath!”
MADDIE MURDOCK: “Rissi’s never been better than she was at Aftermath, that much I’m convinced about already… which is crazy when you think about the fact she’s been EHWF Unified Global Champion!”
The sneer persists as she allows her malevolent gaze to glide from one side of the venue to the other before she returns her focus to center, settling her vision on the ring on the far end of the entrance ramp—or perhaps, more accurately, the woman inside it. Ana tilts her chin upward and draws sharp breath through her nose while twitching her upper lip in animalistic resent, baring her teeth to the fans with a hearty chuckle. She soon bows her head forward and nefariously glares up through her furrowed brow at her theater of war ahead.
PATRICIA DOWNS: “Ladies and gentlemen… Introducing the EHWF HALL OF FAMER... She is the DEVIL HERSELF... LADY DEATH... The WAR WHISPERER... The UNDISPUTED...”
“AAAANNNNAAAA...”
“...THE LAST EMPRESS...”
“SSSOOOMMMNNNIIIAAA!”
The Undisputed then stomps down the ring to ringside, confidence pouring out of every imperious movement she makes, even despite the loss at Aftermath. Once she reaches the foot of the entrance ramp, Somnia circumnavigates the ring, strutting to the timekeeper’s area, whence she retrieves a microphone—all without removing her gaze from the agitated woman inside the ring. She then ventures to the bottom of the steel stairs at the hard camera’s immediate right leading up to the ring apron.
ALEXANDER CORVIS: “Seeing her up close right now, you would never guess the damage she sustained at Aftermath. These two beat the shit out of one another for what felt like a lifetime.”
MADDIE MURDOCK: “Only one of them—as far as I know—had broken bones as a result! That’s all I’m saying!”
ALEXANDER CORVIS: “Careful, you don’t want to incur the wrath of the Pound-for-Pound Most Potent Professional Athlete on the Planet!”
MADDIE MURDOCK: “Right now, I think Brianna Rissi has to worry about that a little more immediately…”
She hastens up the stairs with purpose and saunters out about halfway across the apron on the side of the ring nearest the commentary tables. There, Somnia scrapes the bottoms of her kicks against the apron. Still without breaking her gaze from its death-grip on the woman whose hand she shook the last time they shared the ring, Ana bends through the ropes and into the squared circle.
As raucous jeers rain down upon Somnia, she squares herself to Rissi, sharply cocks her head to either side to crack her neck in either direction, and shifts her weight from one hip to the other. Ana then narrows her eyes toward the woman standing opposite her, the crowd loud in their reaction to the two coming together for another staredown. A brief moment passes before she then draws breath through her nose and lifts the microphone to her lips, ready to give utterance to her invariably venomous vitriol.
“Nyet... nyet... nyet,” rejects the Russian, her free hand repeatedly tapping the air as if calming a horse. “I know you are… smarter than this… nyet? Despite your youth, you were not born yesterday, were you?” Ana’s eyebrow lifts skyward and she inches closer to Rissi, whose eyes narrow at the Coming Doom. “Technicalities are crutch, сука. They are no more and no better than excuse. You are better than this, nyet? You must be to have… how did you say..?” Ana frowns inquisitively, though she knows exactly how Rissi had chosen to phrase it. “‘Defeated’ Ana Somnia? But… did you... defeat Ana Somnia?” Almost immediately, boos descend upon the ring. “Of all four who have pinned Ana Somnia here in EHWF, nobody has truly defeated Ana Somnia.” Again Somnia must pause to allow the audience to jeer fervently, though she cuts through it as it begins its decrescendo. “Aside from perhaps you, all three others—at most—can consider themselves challenger. Not one of them can consider themselves contender. And despite their greatest efforts, their loftiest ambitions? Despite yours? I still stand.”
The fans really let her have it again, prompting her to shake her head and lower the microphone for a moment. She cocks her side from side to side to crack her neck (loudly enough for the microphones to pick up) before sighing and reuniting the microphone with her cold and calculated timbre.
“A loss is not defeat,” explains the Bantamweight Butcher. “As long as I have breathed, as long as I have bled, I have never met defeat. And as long as I breathe… as long as I bleed... I will not know defeat.” Somnia flicks the pad of her thumb along the inner edge of her top two front teeth, a traditional Russian gesture of guarantee. “You own lone win against me, da... but torch I carry in pursuit of Greater Good cannot be extinguished so easily.” Somnia grins and narrows her eyes at her rival simultaneously; her free hand adjusts the neck of her sweatshirt before she continues. “With this said? Do not mistake these words, Brianna Rissi.” Hissing, Somnia tucks some of her platinum blonde hair behind her ear with her free hand. “You beat me at Aftermath. You did this honestly and you did this at great personal cost. For this and this alone, as you already know, you have my respect.” Ana nods, briefly glancing down at the hand she shook at Aftermath. “But while this is true—you did this—we are simply… not finished.”
The crowd erupts, though they’re not quite sure how to react, making their explosive din mixed in nature.
“Pinning Ana Somnia is insufficient, ребенок,” laughs off Lady Death. “This will not hinder my championship pursuit for one single moment! My loftier ambition is undaunted by specter of loss. If you are worth your salt, you would feel this same way.” Ana gestures between Rissi and herself with a light nod for emphasis. “But instead, you stand here posturing... endeavoring—no, daring to dictate landscape of division? This is arrogance. This is audacity. But what this is not… is fire.” Somnia shakes her head with contempt before squaring herself to Rissi again, eyes narrowed. “Where is fire from last Chaos? Where is fire I saw when you make empty threat to knock me out, hmm? Do not allow triumph in battle allow you to lose focus of war.” Inching ever closer to Rissi, the Final Terror eventually gets so close Rissi can feel her breath on her skin. “Champions are forged in fire, da? But do you truly, truly believe Brianna Rissi is equal to this task? Be honest, милая... because I... am not so sure.”
The ring is set, the atmosphere electric as the two women stare each other down. The audience is on the edge of their seats, anticipating the confrontation between them. Brianna Rissi, emotionally ticked off now, takes a step back and grins as she looks out at the fans and holds her hands out at Ana in display.
“Ana, I don't think I'll ever get you. I don't think I'll ever be able to get down to your wavelength to understand you... You talked a big game and that was fine. We got into it, there was a lot of back and forth, that's the price of doing business in OUR business... but then we had a match. You challenged me and we went at it, one on one, no other crap and no extra bullshit. We went at it in the ring ONE ON ONE and we tore the house down, stole the show and put on one of the best matches of all time.”
The arena erupted in a thunderous roar as fans chanted Brianna Rissi's name, their excitement becoming more and more evident and wild as Brianna and Ana are up close and personal right now. Brianna and Ana both took a moment and looked either side of them at the cheering fans.
“So I don't get it... We went to Aftermath and had a contest and I WON! You didn't win that match, I WON! And now all of a sudden, that's not good enough? The bottom line, whether your undeserved pride lets you admit it or not is that I DID defeat you, Ana. You said you were gonna hurt me and do all of these things to me and beat me at Aftermath but you didn't. I told you I was gonna beat you at Aftermath and I did. Only one of us won that night and only one of us backed up what they said they were gonna do... So If I was you, I wouldn't be talking about 'empty threats' because you seem to be the queen of that right now.”
The fans go BERSERK once more as Brianna holds her arms out while looking into Ana's eyes with an intransigent and powerful gaze from her blinding eyes. Brianna steps forward and raises her left hand up while not taking her eyes off of Ana as she calms the cheering and screaming crowd.
“Maybe we can call you 'Pound-for-Pound Most Potent Bullshit Artist on the Planet', hmm? Right now, you don't get to talk about how Champions are forged around these parts. Why don't I simply do what should be done, take my win over you, leave Ana Somnia in the past, and move on to my EHWF Unified Global Championship rematch, which I'm MORE than entitled to now?”
The fans' cheers vibrate through the arena and quiet down to a mixed reaction as Brianna walks off and leans on the ropes, leaving Ana standing in the same spot as Brianna looks out at the fans. For a few moments, neither woman looks at each other or has any contact. Brianna smirks and turns back to the ring and gets up close to Ana once more.
“But... That would be too easy... So instead let ME be the one to challenge you this time. How about, I finish this for good. I've already beaten you once, since that didn't satisfy you, let me do it again... I suggest... Brianna Rissi vs. Ana Somnia at Meltdown... And we do it in YOUR OWN match... A New Age Deathmatch! And I can say that not only did I defeat you once, Ana, but after Meltdown, I will have defeated you twice!”
The crowd ERUPTS as they can't believe the challenge put forth right now! The audience, still riding high from the incredible encounter that they recently witnessed featuring these two are now on the edge of their seats! Ana and Brianna are still face to face, Brianna with a wide and confident expression on her face as she and the crazed fans await Ana Somnia's response to Brianna's challenge. Slowly, an ominous smirk crawls across Ana’s visage. She exhales softly through her nose before nodding her head and chuckling lightly. Advancing closer to Rissi, Somnia lacks urgency in lifting her microphone back to her lips.
“I accept,” she hisses, earning a deafening roar of approval from the capacity crowd. “But I must warn you, милая...” Ana’s voice trails off slightly as she inches even closer to Rissi, so close she could reach out and tuck some of Rissi’s hair behind her ear should she so wish. “You have made accord. You have made… deal with Devil. And Devil... always collects… on what she is due.”
Somnia narrows her eyes at Rissi, giving her a brief, but nonetheless provocative once-over. She lowers her microphone and soon drops it to the mat, her theme song quickly replacing the white noise resulting from the microphone’s crash landing on the canvas.
ALEXANDER CORVIS: “Can you believe that, Maddie? A New Age Deathmatch! The first one EHWF will have seen in almost three years!”
MADDIE MURDOCK: “Two Meltdown Chambers and a New Age Deathmatch all on one night? This is about to be one of the most violent shows in recent memory!”
Rissi shakes her head with a scowl as Somnia says something to her the microphones can’t pick up and slips past her. Ana vacates the ring and saunters up the entrance ramp with a satisfied sneer on her otherwise sultry visage. Rissi turns and watches her depart with disdain in her eyes, allowing our scene to fade to black.
We go to footage that took place earlier in the day. The new Extreme Champion Griffin Hawkins is seen leaning against the brick wall outside the arena, dressed in black jeans and a Type O Negative T-Shirt. The Extreme Title rests proudly over his shoulder as he begins to speak.
Griffin Hawkins: As the old saying goes... what goes up, must come down. The higher you are... the more it will hurt when you fall. It doesn't matter how great your empire it is, all it takes is one person to bring it all down. As we look back on history books it will show that Sujir Thorn made one mistake and put an irremovable blemish on his reign. Because all it took for me was one shot... just one chance for me to rip the Extreme Title from his iron grip. I did what many before me had failed to do and I dethroned the great destroyer. But it looks like he's not going to give up without a fight.
He readjusts the title on his shoulder and begins walking towards the camera man.
Griffin Hawkins: See Thorn... I told you before that I was coming to EHWF to make an impact, and the first thing I was going to do is become the Extreme Champion. And I hate to be the one who says I told you so... but I told you so. You could've shook my hand and left with dignity... but you and your goons decided to jump me and beat me down. You would've ended my career if it weren't for a returning Brian Phillips. And now the two of us are gonna take you and Aaron Fredrick Hudson down. You're good with gang attacks... but when the sides are a little bit even, it's quite the different story isn't it? Insidious is already starting to crumble now that the Extreme Title is no longer in their camp. And now to further drive the final nails in the coffin.
He takes off his shades.
Griffin Hawkins: Which brings me to you Hudson. Did you ever stop to think that Thorn may be using you? Did you ever stop to think that you and Lu Chen are nothing more than lackeys to him? What rewards have you reaped from sitting under the learning tree of Thorn? What have you done other than carry his bags? Are you afraid you're gonna fall over if he pulls his hand out of your ass? Maybe tonight me and Brian beat some sense into you.
He then looks serious.
Griffin Hawkins: And that leaves my partner Brian Phillips. The question is... can I trust him? Well... anyone who hates Thorn and his gaggle of yes men as much as I do sounds like someone I can trust. But I know deep in the back of his mind... he wants a shot at this coveted prize. Brian... I'm not one of those champions who ducks threats to his reign. Anytime you want a title shot, all you gotta do is ask. Just get a contract and sign it... and you're in. But first we gotta take care of the business at home. So Insidious... get ready, because somebody's gonna get rocked!
He walks off as we go back to the ring.
We cut to ringside where Patricia Downs is waiting with a mic.
Patricia Downs: This opening contest tonight is a tag team match set for one fall!
The opening dialogue of his theme starts Aaron comes out, in blue Jeans and random t-shirt with black boots, a black leather belt and a black fedora, with a grin on lips. He makes his way down the ramp to the ring with a devious swagger be slips into the ring in a Shawn Michealesque knee slide. He stays still as his music comes to an end his eyes on the ramp as he watches he opponent enter. As he stands back up he takes of his fedora handing it the ref before moving to his corner.
Patricia Downs: First up tonight… Being accompanied by Lu Chen Hudson…Aaron Fredrick Hudson!
A white fog starts to cover the ramp as the opening notes to Bullets by Creed start to play. A series of bright red spot lights turn on illuminating the smoke as Sujir's silhouette is seen at the top of the ramp. The smoke slowly clears as Sujir wearing a red leather trench coat slowly steps down the ramps striding slowly towards the ring nodding to the fans as he does so. Once to the ring he climbs the steel steps and slides into the ring under the ropes and then rises to his knees kneeling to the center of the ring staring at the top of the entrance ramp his arms spread. About halfway through the song he jumps to his feet he rises to his feet and strides confidently to his corner. Once there he pulls off his trench coat tossing it towards the ring announcers before he rises to the top ropes as the lights return to normal and he awaits the start of the match.
Patricia Downs: And next up… His partner tonight… Sujir Thorn!
"Whiskey in the Jar" by Metallica blares throughout the arena. HardKore steps out on stage and thrusts his Singapore cane into the air. He makes his way down the ramp and climbs into the ring before he raises his Singapore cane back into the air. HardKore does this at each side of the ring to make sure the fans get a chance to get a picture of him in his iconic pose before he puts the cane down on the apron in his corner while the music fades out.
Patricia Downs: And next… Their opponents tonight… First… HardKore… Brian Phillips!
Fans are awaiting what's to come. Suddenly the sounds of a guitar playing is heard. "Separate Ways" by Journey hits in and from behind the curtain enters Griffin Hawkins! He walks down the ramp in Pink Zebra print tights and a sleeveless mesh shirt. His signature leather jacket and silver aviator shades adorn him as he walks down, high fiving fans as he soaks in the positive reaction. He looks towards the ring and steps up the stairs, looking towards the cheering crowd with a smile.
He steps between the ropes and gets on the turnbuckles, raising the devil horns in the air...pumping up the live crowd. Soon he gets down, taking off his leather jacket before going outside the ring. He takes off his aviators and puts them around a young excited fan, smiling down at him. As he gets back in the ring he paces back and forth, waiting for the match to finally begin.
Patricia Downs: And his partner tonight… He is the EHWF Extreme Champion… The Jukebox Hero… Griffin Hawkins!

Match #1: Sujir Thorn & Aaron Fredrick Hudson vs. Griffin Hawkins & Brian Phillips
The bell rings, and the extreme rules tag team match is underway! Griffin Hawkins and Brian Phillips face off against Insidious, represented by Sujir Thorn and Aaron Fredrick Hudson, with Lu Chen Hudson at ringside. Sujir and Griffin start the match, and Sujir immediately goes for a kendo stick from under the ring, swinging it wildly at Griffin. Griffin ducks under the swings and counters with a dropkick, sending Sujir crashing into the ropes! Griffin follows up with a series of stiff punches, then grabs the kendo stick and cracks it over Sujir's back, the sound echoing through the arena!
Alexander Corvis: Griffin Hawkins wasting no time bringing the extreme to this match! Both men HATE each other! At Aftermath Griffin finally took the EHWF Extreme Championship from Sujir and now Sujir and Insidious are out for revenge!
Sujir staggers forward, and Griffin hits him with a DDT onto the steel chair, driving his head into the unforgiving steel! Sujir rolls out of the ring to recover, but Griffin follows him, pulling out another steel chair from under the ring! He swings it at Sujir, who ducks, and the chair connects with the ring post with a loud clang! Sujir grabs Griffin and whips him into the steel steps, sending him crashing into them! Meanwhile, inside the ring, Brian Phillips and Aaron Fredrick Hudson have started brawling! Aaron gets the upper hand with a big boot, then follows up with a German suplex! Brian wants to fight but Aaron doesn’t want him to go for the weapons so Aaron plants him with another German suplex on the canvas!
Alexander Corvis: Aaron Hudson with a German suplex, but Brian Phillips isn’t going down that easily! Brian took it to Insidious last week when he made his return to EHWF and made the save on Griffin Hawkins and now he’s made some enemies for life!
Brian rolls out of the ring to catch his breath, but Aaron follows him, grabbing a trash can lid from under the ring and smashing it over Brian's head. Brian stumbles back, and Aaron hits him with a clothesline, sending him over the barricade and into the crowd! The fans scatter as the brawl spills into the audience. Back at ringside, Griffin and Sujir are still going at it. Griffin grabs a table and sets it up, but Sujir catches him with a boot to the face, then slams him onto the announce table with a spinebuster! Griffin yells in pain as Sujir slams his forearm down on his chest and rolls him further onto the announce table as the fans LOSE IT!
Alexander Corvis: Sujir Thorn just planted Griffin Hawkins right on top of our table here and now they’re freaking brawling right in front of us!
Sujir climbs onto the announce table, dragging Griffin up with him! He sets up for a powerbomb, but Griffin counters with a back body drop, sending Sujir crashing through the table! The crowd erupts as Griffin stands tall amidst the wreckage, taking refuge on the barricade! Inside the ring, Aaron and Brian have made their way back, and Aaron has Brian in a corner, delivering a series of brutal knee strikes to his midsection! Aaron pulls Brian out of the corner and hits a sit-out powerbomb, going for a cover!
1…

KICK OUT!
Alexander Corvis: Brian Phillips showing incredible heart, kicking out after that powerbomb! Anything can happen in this match! You don’t have to be pinned to lose, your partner can lose this one for you!
Aaron gets frustrated and slides out of the ring, grabbing a bag of thumbtacks from under the ring. He spreads them out in the center of the ring, then grabs Brian, looking to slam him onto the tacks. Brian fights back with elbows to Aaron’s head, breaking free! Brian then hits a running headbutt, staggering Aaron, and follows up with a belly-to-belly suplex, sending Aaron back-first into the thumbtack! Aaron writhes in pain as the tacks pierce his skin. Brian goes to cover him but Lu Chen drags Aaron out to the apron to save him! On the outside, Griffin pulls a ladder from under the ring and sets it up! He starts climbing, aiming to leap onto Sujir, who is still recovering from the table crash! The fans LOSE IT as Griffin climbs the ladder and Sujir slowly stirs back up to his knee!
Alexander Corvis: Brian Phillips just sent Aaron Hudson into those thumbtacks! This is brutal! Aaron thrown into those damn thumbtacks and now this dude is a pin cushion! What a freaking ruthless match!
Griffin reaches the top of the ladder and looks down at Sujir, who is slowly getting to his feet. Griffin leaps off with a crossbody, crashing down onto Sujir and sending both men sprawling onto the outside floor! The cheers ERUPT! The crowd is on their feet, chanting “OH SHIT!" as the carnage continues! Back in the ring, Brian is setting up for his HardKore DDT on Aaron, but Lu Chen Hudson gets involved, grabbing Brian's leg from the outside and tripping him up! Aaron takes advantage, hitting Brian with a running boot to the chest, then follows up with a snap suplex onto the thumbtacks. Both men are down and out on the mat and the fans go WILD!
Alexander Corvis: Griffin Hawkins off the ladder! Unbelievable! This is freaking INSANE and we just started shit tonight! These guys want to KILL EACH OTHER out here tonight! Aftermath still fresh in everyone’s minds out here!
Aaron goes for the cover on Brian, but before the referee can count, Griffin dives back into the ring, breaking up the pin with a chair shot to Aaron’s back! Griffin, battered and bloody, pulls Brian out of there to safety! He grabs a light tube from under the ring, slides back in and smashes it over Aaron’s head, then follows up with a DDT onto the broken glass. Aaron is busted open, blood pouring from his forehead! The fans are going nuts! Lu Chen smacks Griffin in the back with a trash can lid! Griffin stumbles forward into the ropes! She goes for another but Griffin pulls the top rope down and Lu Chen crashes to the outside!
Alexander Corvis: Griffin Hawkins with a vicious DDT onto broken glass! This match is pure insanity! Aaron Fredrick Hudson is just a sack of leaking blood right now! The fans are going NUTS! This one is just about to end! Griffin not finished with Aaron yet!
Griffin signals to the crowd, pulling Aaron to his feet. He sets up for his finishing move, Shot In The Dark (Superkick) but Sujir re-enters the ring, spearing Griffin and sending both of them crashing into the thumbtacks. Sujir and Griffin roll around, each trying to gain the upper hand as they piece and bleed all over the mat! Both men struggle into the ropes where they yell in pain and try to recover! Meanwhile, Brian and Aaron, both covered in blood and glass, struggle to get to their feet, preparing for another brutal exchange! Brian with a right hand to Aaron! Then another! Then another then another! Brian boots Aaron down low and plants him with an impaler DDT and both men are down and out after that!
Alexander Corvis: The carnage just won’t stop! All four men are down in this contest! This is disgustingly brutal! After all Griffin and Sujir went through at Aftermath, I’m surprised they can even compete in a match this ruthless!
Sujir gets up and runs at Brian who is using the ropes to stand! Brian ducks and sends Sujir over the top rope crashing onto Lu Chen on the outside! Aaron runs up and hits Brian with a running boot, sending him over the top rope to the outside! Aaron turns around RIGHT INTO Shot In The Dark (Superkick) from Griffin Hawkins and the fans ABSOLUTELY LOSE IT with cheers as Griffin falls onto Aaron and drapes his right arm on his chest! The crowd gets up and loud as the ref slides down for the count!

DING DING DING!
Patricia Downs: Here are your winners of this match… HardKore… Brian Phillips… and… the EHWF Extreme Champion… The Jukebox Hero… Griffin Hawkins!
Alexander Corvis: Another huge win for Griffin Hawkins this time with Brian Phillips by his side and this guy can’t make a wrong step since coming to EHWF! Such a brutal and extreme match though!
Everyone is down. Everyone is hurt. Suddenly a MASSIVE explosion of pyro goes off on the stage and off of the turnbuckles as Lord Raab walks out, tightening his glove as the fans look on confused!
Alexander Corvis: Wait… Is that Lord Raab?! What the fuck is going on!? What’s he doing coming out to the ring?
Lord Raab gets over the top rope and steps into the ring! Lord Raab grabs Brian Phillips and brushes his face and hits him with a huge uppercut! Brian falls out of the ring! All the men are too hurt and too tired to get up let alone fight back! Lord Raab goes to the outside and throws Brian into the barricade head first and then grabs the table that was set up earlier in the night. He grabs some matches from his pocket and strikes half a dozen of them then lights up the table in a HUGE flame!
Alexander Corvis: You’ve gotta be kidding me right now! Lord Raab just lit up a table! He just set it on fire! What’s he doing!? Why is Raab even out here now?! He has a match later tonight!
Lord Raab gets back in the ring. He grabs BOTH Sujir and Griffin by the necks! He picks them up and yells in their faces as they struggle, bleeding in his grip. Lord Raab picks both men up and hits them with a double Chokinator chokeslam over the top rope THROUGH the burning table! Griffin and Sujir EXPLODE through the flaming table! The fans ROAR as both Sujir and Griffin catch fire in the debris!
Alexander Corvis: SON OF A BITCH! Lord Raab just chokeslammed both Griffin and Sujir through the flaming table! What the fuck is he doing!? Why did he do that!?
Griffin rolls around on fire until the flame puts itself out! Lu Chen starts patting out the flames on Sujir’s back and arms! Both Griffin and Sujir lie, burnt, bruised and bloodied on the outside as Lord Raab raises the EHWF Extreme Championship above his head to the booing fans. We fade out from the scene backstage.
In the back, we see Joanna Penkzee-Nelson getting ready for her match up. She’s lost in thought right now as she begins to speak.
Joanna Penkzee-Nelson: Well, here we are again. Another week, another match and a way to put myself out there.
She smirks at the comment.
Joanna Penkzee-Nelson: The last time around, I didn’t fair well against Kate Vega and lost my match. This happens and I shouldn’t dwell on it. Losses happen…
Joanna sighs at that comment
Joanna Penkzee-Nelson: However, I have to get back on track as this week, I’m teaming up with Brianna Rissi this week by taking on Konrad Raab and Lord Raab.
Joanna raises an eyebrow.
Joanna Penkzee-Nelson: Seems like we’re dealing with the Raab crew, don’t you think?
She shakes her head.
Joanna Penkzee-Nelson: Either way, tonight, it’s going to be a match that everyone should pay attention to, and i hope my tag team partner is ready for combat!
Joanna Penkzee-Nelson walks away for her match.
We cut to ringside where Patricia Downs is waiting with a mic.
Patricia Downs: This following contest is a tag team match set for one single fall!
It's Going Down by Linkin Park ft. The Executioners plays over the sound system as Lord Raab comes out first, ignoring the fans as he usually does, wearing a black and red stripy mask, black and red stripy trousers, black gloves and black boots and walks straight to the ring by stepping up the stairs and stepping over the top rope before Konrad Raab comes out moments later wearing blue and black suit with a blue and black face paint with blue gloves and black boots and high fives the fans while walking to the ring and slides in the ring with Lord Raab. Lord Raab crouches down in the corner moving backwards and forwards, rubbing his hands and moving his neck around while Konrad goes on the turnbuckle and raises his hands to the fans as they have mixed cheers and boos for the pair of them with Konrad getting down from the ring and fist bumps Lord Raab as Konrad stands with the pair of them looking at the ramp for their opponents to come out.
Patricia Downs: First up tonight… Lord Raab and Konrad Raab… The Brothers of Balance!
Butterflies by GAYLE kicks in as the fans are cheering Joanna Penkzee-Nelson as the fans are cheering for her. Out comes Joanna as she comes out of the back. She waves at some of the fans that are cheering for her and gives them fist bumps before rolling into the ring and warming up.
Patricia Downs: And next up… Their opponents… First… Joanna Penkzee-Nelson!
"I Will Not Bow" hits the PA System as multi coloured lights hits the arena and everyone in the crowd starts going nuts and crazy with cheers! Brianna Rissi appears on the stage and waves out to the screaming fans, performing some theatrics before she runs down the ramp and high fives the fans on her way down. She jumps up on the apron and flips her way into the ring where she makes her way to the ropes. Brianna celebrates against the ropes with the fans and makes her way to the ring, raising her arms and waiting for the match to begin.
Patricia Downs: And her partner tonight… Killer Bree… Brianna Rissi!
DING DING DING
Match #2: Lord Raab & Konrad Raab vs. Brianna Rissi & Joanna Penkzee-Nelson
The bell rings, and Brianna Rissi and Konrad Raab start the match. Brianna immediately goes on the offensive, charging at Konrad with a series of forearm smashes, backing him into the corner. She climbs the turnbuckle and begins delivering mounted punches, the crowd counting along. Konrad grabs her and throws her off, but Brianna lands on her feet and hits a dropkick, sending Konrad stumbling. Brianna looks out at Ana Somnia at the announce table and smirks! She turns around and hoists Konrad up and PLANTS him with an INSANE spinebuster that shakes the ring on impact!
Alexander Corvis: Brianna Rissi wasting no time, taking the fight to Konrad Raab! She just damn near embedded him into the canvas there with that huge spinebuster right after looking out at Ana Somnia who is here with us at the broadcast table!
Maddie Murdock: Ana, you and Brianna opened up the show tonight… Even though you two had that epic battle at Aftermath, it looks like things aren’t done between you two and now you’ve both agreed to go at it one more time at Meltdown in a couple of weeks!
Ana Somnia: Da, this is true. This is why I have decided to tolerate pageantry of commentary by being here tonight. I, too, have shared ring with Konrad Raab, though he’s already faring better against Brianna Rissi than he ever managed against Ana Somnia. If Brianna Rissi were smarter, she would spend less time worrying about me at this table and more time worrying about her opponent in this match.
Konrad shakes off the spinebuster and charges at Brianna, who ducks under his clothesline attempt and bounces off the ropes, hitting him with a flying crossbody! Brianna is up and she hits Lord Raab with an elbow to the head while he’s on the apron! Brianna runs back into the action! Konrad swings but she ducks! Brianna snaps a sidekick right into Konrad’s face! Konrad stumbles backwards in pain as Brianna springs off of the middle ropes and soars through the air, nailing Konrad with a springboard dropkick to the chest that sends Konrad sprawling across the ring back into his own corner! Konrad tags in Lord Raab, who steps over the ropes and into the ring with a menacing and angry look!
Alexander Corvis: Lord Raab is in, and things just got a lot more dangerous for Brianna! She elbowed him in the head just before and he’s been calling for the tag ever since and now the Masked German Monster wants to get his hands on Brianna!
Maddie Murdock: We already saw Lord Raab earlier in the night where he took out Griffin Hawkins, Sujir Thorn and Brian Phillips and damn near lit them on fire! This freak psycho is ruthless and it’s clear he wants the EHWF Extreme Championship as well now!
Ana Somnia: What he lacks in intellect, he makes up for in aggression and effort. Defeating Brothers of Balance in Tag Team New Age Deathmatch was predicated upon dismantling this—what was this word you used? Psycho? Brianna Rissi must do same if she hopes to emerge victorious.
Brianna rushes over, but Lord Raab grabs her by the hair and lifts her up for a chokeslam! Brianna fights back with elbows to Raab's head, breaking free! She dropkicks his knee, bringing him down to one knee, and then hits a shining wizard, dazing him! Brianna starts beating on Lord Raab’s head with big right hands as he’s on a knee! Brianna pulls Lord Raab up and tosses him into the corner but he knocks Brianna down with a big elbow! Lord Raab follows up with a big boot to the skull! Lord Raab wants Chokinator again but Brianna snaps a enziguri into his head from nowhere! The fans GO NUTS! Brianna bounces off of the ropes and takes the big man down through the air with a diving corkscrew body block! Lord Raab is down! Brianna makes the tag to Joanna Penkzee-Nelson, who comes in with a burst of energy, hitting Raab with a running knee strike to the face off of the top rope!
Alexander Corvis: Joanna Penkzee-Nelson in with a flying knee! They’re trying to keep the big man down! Brianna did a number on Lord Raab, showing off her speed and dominance in this one!
Maddie Murdock: This is great teamwork by Brianna and Joanna. They need to keep the pressure on in this contest as they’ve completely floored Lord Raab who is the difference maker for his team! No Lord Raab, no victory for the Brothers of Balance!
Ana Somnia: Da, just as I said. I do not yet know this… Penkzee-Nelson, but this speed of Brianna Rissi you mention? This is what upon which they must build momentum upon in order to win this fight. The confrontation of speed versus power is always… intriguing to witness.
Joanna follows up with a series of rapid-fire kicks to Raab's chest, then hits the ropes and delivers a low dropkick to his face! She goes for a cover, but Raab presses her off instantly, tossing her off with authority. Joanna looks shocked and Lord Raab sits up! Joanna backs off, apprehensive of the huge man! Joanna tags Brianna back in, and the two women double-team Raab with a double dropkick, sending him into the ropes! As he bounces back, they hit a double DDT, planting him on the mat. Brianna covers!

NO!
Konrad dives in and breaks it up!
Alexander Corvis: Double DDT! They’ve got Lord Raab reeling! They get a near fall but Konrad breaks it up! Joanna impressing there but she couldn’t get the big man down for even a 1 count!
Maddie Murdock: They’re working perfectly in tandem! A lot to watch in this contest as Brianna is back in and she’s taking it to the big man once again!
Ana Somnia: Knowing Brianna Rissi, she would blame this failure on her partner. She would not hold herself accountable for her own shortcomings. If she were to approach this match with greater focus, greater effort? Perhaps this fight would have already ended. Instead, she is agitated, distracted. This is not woman who pinned me at Aftermath. Nyet. This is someone else. This is someone… inferior.
Frustrated, Brianna pulls Lord Raab to his feet, only for him to lift her with a sudden spinebuster, driving her hard into the mat! Lord Raab tags in Konrad, who climbs to the top rope and hits a diving headbutt, connecting squarely with Brianna’s chest. He goes for the cover, but Joanna breaks it up! Ana smirks for a moment as she sees Brianna in pain! Joanna gets tossed out of the ring by Konrad Raab! The fans go NUTS as Konrad pursues Joanna on the apron!
Alexander Corvis: Joanna with the save! Konrad is PISSED after that one and now he’s taking it out on Joanna!
Maddie Murdock: Konrad and Lord Raab have been pretty unlucky lately but they’re still a tough team and an experienced team! Joanna is only a couple of matches in and is very inexperienced and now she’s getting beat up and she’s not even legal!!
Ana Somnia: Violence will always find way. Established veteran, rising rookie—this does not matter. Violence will always prove ultimate equalizer. If Joanna did not wish to endure this violence, she might have chosen better line of work. Brianna Rissi, for her shortcomings, seems to believe in and understand this violence better than most, this much I’m woman enough to admit.
Joanna and Konrad start trading blows, but Lord Raab re-enters the ring, grabbing Joanna from behind and tossing her out of the ring. Brianna uses the distraction to roll up Konrad for a near fall, Lord Raab breaks it up! Brianna bounces off of the ropes and dives on both Lord Raab and Konrad Raab and takes BOTH men out with a diving lariat! Lord Raab rolls out of the ring! Brianna then hits a spinning heel kick, staggering Konrad. She tags Joanna back in, and they hit a double suplex on Konrad, showing off their impressive teamwork. Brianna picks up Joanna overhead and slams her down on Konrad with an aided splash as the fans go wild and Joanna hooks both legs!

KICK OUT!
Alexander Corvis: Another double team maneuver! These two are in sync! Another near fall but it’s not looking good for The Brothers of Balance if they just can’t get anything going tonight! Brianna is all over both of them!
Maddie Murdock: Konrad Raab is in trouble! The Brothers of Balance need to find their rhythm! Ana, you’re clearly watching this one very closely now as Brianna really turns up the heat in this tag team contest!
Ana Somnia: This is Brianna Rissi I came out here to watch. I have said before I acknowledge talent Brianna Rissi must have in order to even reach this stage of her career, but she has yet to establish consistency with plying this talent, da? If I did not so wish to kick her lipstick through back of her skull, I would be able to turn this woman into elite combat sports athlete.
Joanna pulls Konrad up and whips him into the corner, following up with a handspring elbow. The fans go wild as Joanna springs off of the middle ropes and hits Konrad with a springboard knee to the chest and the fans go WILD! Joanna with a mean chop block to the back of Konrad’s leg takes him out! She tags Brianna back in, and they set up for another double team move. However, Lord Raab charges back into the ring, tackling both women with a double clothesline, turning the tide once again as the fans boo!
Alexander Corvis: Lord Raab with a devastating double clothesline! He’s not legal but he’s seen enough and he knows the flow was completely against his team tonight! Lord Raab and Konrad Raab continue to struggle here!
Maddie Murdock: The power and size of the Raabs might be all it takes to turn it all around tonight though!
Ana Somnia: You Americans have saying for this, nyet? Bigger they are, harder they fall? If Brianna Rissi’s team fails to reclaim momentum, and soon? I am not so sure she will even survive until Meltdown.
Raab pulls Brianna up and lifts her for a powerbomb, but Joanna hits a dropkick to his back, causing him to drop Brianna who counters into a hurricanrana! Joanna and Brianna hit Raab with a double superkick, sending him out of the ring as the fans GO NUTS! They turn their attention back to Konrad, who is slowly getting to his feet. Joanna hits a running knee to Konrad’s head, while Brianna climbs to the top rope, preparing for a high-risk move!
Alexander Corvis: Brianna going to the top rope! This could be it!
Maddie Murdock: High risk, high reward! What’s she got planned?
Ana Somnia: I speak from experience when I say this woman’s aerial arsenal is… effective. I possess neither necessary patience nor lack of self-preservation to utilize this tactic, myself, but for women like Brianna Rissi, Samantha Taylor, and my pupil, Astrid? This technique is what you Americans call a gamechanger.
Brianna launches off and nails Konrad with a missile dropkick! He goes sprawling to the ropes and tags in Lord Raab! Lord Raab runs at Brianna but she ducks him and bounces off of the ropes! They run at each other again and she nails Lord Raab with a SPEAR! Brianna takes down the much bigger man and the fans go BERSERK! Joanna runs in and clotheslines Konrad over the top rope to the outside as she lands on the apron! Lord Raab sits up and stands on his feet as he sways right into a Rissi Roundhouse from Brianna! Lord Raab goes down! Brianna covers him and looks out at Ana Somnia at the broadcast area as she does!

DING DING DING!
Patricia Downs: Here are your winners tonight… The team of… Joanna Penkzee-Nelson… and… Killer Bree… Brianna Rissi!
Alexander Corvis: Absolute HUGE win tonight for Brianna and Joanna as they take down The Brothers of Balance! Brianna picking up yet another big win and building more and more momentum here on Chaos!
The bell has already rung, but Patricia Downs barely has a chance to finish announcing Penkzee-Nelson and Rissi the winners before Rissi tears her hand away from the referee, who had lifted it high overhead in triumph. Killer Bree drops down and rolls out of the ring, not bothering to celebrate! The well-known proponent of showmanship foregoes her traditional pomp and circumstance, instead opting to confront the Bantamweight Butcher behind the commentary table. Somnia’s eyebrow lifts skyward and she removes her headset, placing it on the table before her.
With the fans loud and on their feet, Somnia brushes herself off and saunters around the table to meet the Australian athlete face to face, earning and even louder pop from the audience! Rissi grins proudly—and why shouldn’t she? She just kicked the behemoth Lord Raab’s head halfway across the arena! A win richer, she is quick to jaw with the platinum blonde standing opposite her. While you could certainly cut the tension with a knife, it would need to be scathingly sharp to do so. Rissi tells Somnia she can’t wait to kick her head off, too, and Somnia snickers. The Russian asks why the two should wait and takes a step forward. But Rissi perceives the advance as too sudden a move, prompting her to launch the same kick toward Somnia’s head that she just used to beat the Brothers of Balance!
ROUNDHOUSE KICK!
RISSI ROUNDHOUSE!
But NO! Somnia ducks! Rissi spins back around with great haste, but it’s not quick enough to avoid eating a stiff SOK NGAD Muay Thai Uppercut Elbow to the chin! Her head snaps back and she stumbles toward the corner behind here, giving Somnia the space she needs to headhunt again, this time seeking a CHASSÉ FIGURE Savate High Piston-Action Kick to the jaw! Rissi now ducks! She suddenly throws herself skyward and nails Somnia with a lightning-quick JUMPING HIGH KNEE, completely surprising the Last Empress! Somnia steps back maybe two steps before Rissi charges in for a FLYING HIGH KNEE! Somnia side-steps! Rissi turns right into a successful delivery of a sickeningly stiff CHASSÉ FIGURE! Both of Killer Bree’s legs turn to spaghetti and she staggers backward, giving Ana the opening to leap with a twist and pump her elbow through Rissi’s dome!
JUMPING 540º ROLLING ELBOW!
HAMMER OF HISTORY!
Rissi turns and drops to her knees, eyes rolling into the back of her head—but yet she refuses to drop any nearer to the mat! The crowd cheers momentarily, but then Somnia places her hands against each other flat and presses the back of her left hand to her cheek to herald the impending sleep into which Rissi will descend! With jeers at her back, she then saunters arrogantly to Rissi, who rises to a single knee. Before Rissi can reach any more of a vertical base, though, Somnia cracks her in the dead center of the back of her skull with her elbow!
SOK TAD TO THE BACK OF
THE HEAD OF A KNEELING OPPONENT!
SLEEP BELOVED!
As the lights flicker and prepare to go out in Brianna’s eyes, her body slowly collapses forward. Somnia, though, stops her descent by snapping her arms around her throat and yanking her right back into her submission finisher!
REAR NAKED CHOKE!
WANDERLUST!
Somnia snakes her legs around Rissi’s midsection and drops backward, bending Rissi awkwardly back over one of her legs as she collapses into the chokehold. The Australian scratches and claws but she can’t get free! Her face begins to shift shades and her fight slowly subsides! Before Somnia can straight up kill the woman, JOANNA RISSI tackles Somnia off of her! Security forces, of course, arrive en masse at this point, separating everyone before mass mayhem can occur. Somnia snickers and snarls at the Rissi duo as she’s dragged off, the crowd jeering relentlessly. Joanna breaks free of security’s grip and drops down to Brianna’s side to help wake her back up. We fade out to a commercial.

PUT ON YOUR
WARPAINT!
WARPAINT!
ALEXANDER CORVIS: “No way, is this who I think it is?”
MADDIE MURDOCK: “That’s her theme music, alright—but is it her?!”
As “The Phoenix” by Fall Out Boy continues and builds, the crowd rise to their feet to offer a raucous but predominantly negative response to the arrival of a face the EHWF fans have not seen on this side of the barricade. Soon enough, the chorus to the song arrives and an assembly of vibrant lights rotate and orient toward the stage, onto which ATHENA VERONICA finally struts with confidence.
ALEXANDER CORVIS: “IT’S HER! Athena Veronica is here in EHWF! What’s happening?!”
MADDIE MURDOCK: “I’m surprised she’s even standing after what she went through two nights ago—I have nothing but questions!”
The Bird of Prey looks out upon the capacity crowd for a moment, taking it all in with ever-so-slightly narrowed eyes that survey the crowd. She soon wears a smug smirk and leans her head to one side to crack her neck. The veteran with 121 professional contests under her belt is clad in street clothes, donning a black pair of leather leggings, a white pair of mid-top Nike blazers, white Nike crew socks, and a cropped white FORGE sweatshirt. The blushing beige lipstick adorning her smirk pops even more under her beeline honey hair.
She struts over to the top of the entrance ramp, where she garners a pop from her supporters (and a jeer from those who oppose her) by swaying her hips and strikes a pose, Patrick Stump singing of raising a phoenix. When the chorus repeats this line, Athena offers a fairly theatrical bow, setting off an array of pyrotechnics to another mixed response from the audience.
PATRICIA DOWNS: “Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome for the first time… She is the PHOENIX FATALE... The FIREBIRD...”
“AAATTTHHHEEENNNAAA...”
“THE BIRD OF PREY...”
“VVVEEERRROOONNNIIICCCAAA!”
The second verse to the song begins as Athena makes her way down the entrance ramp with her focus on the ring ahead. Her determination is evident on her otherwise sultry visage. Her razor-sharp focus on the task at hand only deepens as she approaches ringside, having spent the entirety of her journey down the ramp ignoring the audience.
ALEXANDER CORVIS: “Perhaps best known for her time in RIOT! Pro, ALPHA Wrestling, or VICTORY Pro, the current MCW superstar is here in EHWF, Maddie—I really can’t believe it! But what is she here for, exactly?!”
MADDIE MURDOCK: “Or maybe who is the better question?”
The second pre-chorus arrives and Athena finally steps off of the ramp and enters ringside, where she places her hands on her hips and finally relents, raising an eyebrow at the capacity crowd in attendance tonight as they offer their mixed feelings toward her. After inching forward, she stops in place at the foot of the apron to take a deep breath. With a suddenly confident smile, she reaches up and grabs the middle rope to assist in pulling herself up onto one knee on the apron.
ALEXANDER CORVIS: “A lethal striker, Maddie. That’s who’s getting into the EHWF ring right now. But more than that, she’s a sponge! She learns from anyone and anything in that ring and it makes her a scary opponent to find yourself against.”
MADDIE MURDOCK: “A student of Ana Somnia at The Forge, this is a woman who has a lifetime of experience in athletics—even if she’s been known to be… let’s call it a bit much.”
The second chorus arrives and Veronica swings her other leg up, placing the sole of that shoe on the apron as well before slowly turning her frame outward toward the fans. She leans back against the ropes until she can thread her arms backward over the top rope and lean her head backward with a smirk and closed eyes, savoring the chorus of mixed vocal support and contempt. From here, Athena unhooks her left arm and twists her way into the ring over the middle rope. Once inside, she leans over the top rope and jaws with the fans who were booing her.

PUT ON YOUR
WARPAINT!
WARPAINT!
Athena throws her hand into the sky with each word from Stump, the crowd singing along despite their less than favorable sentiments toward her right now. She then uses the descent of her hand to swing around to face the hard camera, to which she offers yet another theatrical bow. When the fourth iteration of the line concludes, however, her music fades out.
ALEXANDER CORVIS: “I have a feeling we’re about to find out what Athena Veronica is doing here in EHWF!”
MADDIE MURDOCK: “You can pick your jaw up off of the floor now, Alex. Let her talk her talk.”
She struts arrogantly over to the corner nearest the timekeeper, where she bends out over the middle rope and demands a microphone. Once a ringside attendant obliges this demand, the Firebird pulls back into the ring and turns to the hard camera. Her eyes narrow and she tucks some of her hair behind her ear to more effectively frame her face. Lifting the microphone to her lips, Athena grins and addresses EHWF fans for the first time in her career.

Her eyes narrow and she tucks some of her hair behind her ear to more effectively frame her face. Lifting the microphone to her lips, Athena grins and addresses EHWF fans for the first time in her career.
“Okay, now be honest,” she says with a sinister snicker. “You weren’t expecting to see little old me, now were you?” A half-pop, half-jeer from the fans causes Athena to smile, nodding her head with a laugh. “I thought not. I mean, why would you? Before tonight, the only time any of you would’ve seen me here in EHWF, I was sitting on the same side of the barricade as all of you are sitting now. Sure, if you tune in on Wednesday nights, you’d be able to see me in MCW—but before tonight? As far as EHWF was concerned? I was just a fan.” The crowd erupts at this notion, their initial trepidation toward Athena slowly dissipating. “But we all know I’m so much more than that… And I always have been. Now, I know some of you might’ve noticed I didn’t walk in here with the MCW Women’s World Championship, so I know you might think that after a battle like the one I just had two nights ago in Puerto Rico, I’d want to… I don’t know, take a little time off? Rest up? Heal up?”
With an eyebrow raised skyward, Athena sarcastically rubs her jawline in contemplation before scoffing off the entire notion.
“But no,” she says, shaking her head with a light laugh. “I could very easily have just stayed in Puerto Rico, enjoying the ‘kinis and ‘tinis with my partner. But do you want to know what I did instead?” Her free hand makes its way to her hip as she answers her own rhetorical question. “Instead, I got back on a plane, went home, and got right back to work.” Her free hand now balls into a fist, extending only an index finger that she stabs downward. “Losing to Victoria Moreno two nights ago? It proved something to me. It proved to me that even by shedding the skin that no longer fit me, I still haven’t freed myself of what’s held me back all of these years… not really anyway.” An authentically and deeply contemplative expression overwhelms her vivacious visage. “It proved to me that if I’m going to make good on my potential, make good on the promises I’ve made—both to myself and everyone else—I’m going to need to cut my teeth a little… differently. In fact, I need to do something more than just cut my teeth.”
She emphatically bares her teeth with her arrogant sneer.
“I need to sharpen them.”
As if trying to confuse viewers, Athena now presses the tip of her tongue against the back of her top two front teeth, which she presses softly into her bottom lip, a provocative expression.
“I’ve got plans for MCW, of course,” continues the California native. “But what if I have plans… for EHWF, too? Where better to sharpen those teeth of mine than RIGHT HERE?” Her eyebrow again shoots upward, earning a pop from fans who don’t care as much about her antics as they do about the fact that she’ll be performing those antics here. “I’m a much better athlete than my track record might intimate, and as objectively true as it might be, I can’t call myself one of the best in the world without doing what I do best all around that world, y’know? And that’s exactly why I chose this place in particular.” She nods for emphasis before turning and looking out around the audience while continuing. “It should surprise only people without functioning brains that I had a number of lucrative offers before I eventually decided on EHWF. I chose EHWF because it’s unique in the opportunities it affords its women. I chose EHWF because this place, as long as I’ve followed Ana’s career here, has always been about doing whatever it takes.” Athena’s brow furrows as she nods pointedly, passion radiating from every syllable she speaks. “It’s the brand on which this company made itself what it is, isn’t it? By any means necessary?”
“That appeals to me,” she says. “That appeals to me as a woman... as a competitor... as a student of the game... But more than anything? That appeals to me as a woman and competitor with a long and decorated career ahead of her.” Athena brushes off her shoulder as if it were dirtied. “So why not start the next chapter of that long and decorated career right here in EHWF? Why not skip right past getting my foot in the door and go straight to KICKING THE DAMN DOOR DOWN?!” She aggressively kicks the air for emphasis, earning impressed bewilderment from the women in the audience who know how difficult movement like that can be in pants like what Athena’s wearing. “Which brings me to the last, but perhaps the most important reason I chose EHWF. You see, when I first heard Chaos would play host to the EHWF Unified Global Championship at Meltdown, I just knew I had to be part of it.”
Anticipation matriculates throughout the sold-out crowd.
“I’ve held a respectable number of titles in my career,” she boasts, though her tone suggests a concession to follow. “But I’ve never broken through that glass ceiling and raised a world championship over my head. I’ve fought in nearly every stipulation match you can think of, but never a Meltdown Chamber. I figure, why not kill two birds with one stone? Why not kick down two doors at once?” The crowd, although hesitant to support this woman knowing her recent behavior, is on their feet and rambunctious nonetheless. “So I’ll do whatever it takes to get inside that cage. I’ll face whomever I’ve got to face, and I’ll kick whomever’s ass I’ve got to kick! I’m the perfect woman, the perfect person to kickstart a new era on Chaos and in EHWF abroad. Because when I set my mind to something, it’s getting done… by any… means… necessary.”
Athena inches closer and closer to the ropes nearest the hard camera as she speaks, eventually concluding her remarks while leaning over the top rope and glaring intensely into the lens of the aforementioned primary production camera. Her eyes narrow. With an imperious scowl on her face, the Firebird drops the microphone out of the ring and blows a sarcastic kiss into the camera, her theme song kicking into gear.
ALEXANDER CORVIS: “DAMN if that isn’t an entertaining possibility, Maddie, don’t you think?”
MADDIE MURDOCK: “Athena and Casey Holliday’s styles do make for an intriguing matchup, I’ll give you that. She’s throwing herself right into the fray, though, Alex. Really makes you think…”
Athena offers one last theatrical bow before vacating the ring and sauntering nefariously up the ramp. Once on the stage, she turns back to the ring and holds her hand up next to her head, fingers curling slightly into the shape of talons. She then uses those fingers to flutter a wave goodbye and disappears through the curtain, allowing us to fade to black.
With an eyebrow raised skyward, Athena sarcastically rubs her jawline in contemplation before scoffing off the entire notion.
“But no,” she says, shaking her head with a light laugh. “I could very easily have just stayed in Puerto Rico, enjoying the ‘kinis and ‘tinis with my partner. But do you want to know what I did instead?” Her free hand makes its way to her hip as she answers her own rhetorical question. “Instead, I got back on a plane, went home, and got right back to work.” Her free hand now balls into a fist, extending only an index finger that she stabs downward. “Losing to Victoria Moreno two nights ago? It proved something to me. It proved to me that even by shedding the skin that no longer fit me, I still haven’t freed myself of what’s held me back all of these years… not really anyway.” An authentically and deeply contemplative expression overwhelms her vivacious visage. “It proved to me that if I’m going to make good on my potential, make good on the promises I’ve made—both to myself and everyone else—I’m going to need to cut my teeth a little… differently. In fact, I need to do something more than just cut my teeth.”
She emphatically bares her teeth with her arrogant sneer.
“I need to sharpen them.”
As if trying to confuse viewers, Athena now presses the tip of her tongue against the back of her top two front teeth, which she presses softly into her bottom lip, a provocative expression.
“I’ve got plans for MCW, of course,” continues the California native. “But what if I have plans… for EHWF, too? Where better to sharpen those teeth of mine than RIGHT HERE?” Her eyebrow again shoots upward, earning a pop from fans who don’t care as much about her antics as they do about the fact that she’ll be performing those antics here. “I’m a much better athlete than my track record might intimate, and as objectively true as it might be, I can’t call myself one of the best in the world without doing what I do best all around that world, y’know? And that’s exactly why I chose this place in particular.” She nods for emphasis before turning and looking out around the audience while continuing. “It should surprise only people without functioning brains that I had a number of lucrative offers before I eventually decided on EHWF. I chose EHWF because it’s unique in the opportunities it affords its women. I chose EHWF because this place, as long as I’ve followed Ana’s career here, has always been about doing whatever it takes.” Athena’s brow furrows as she nods pointedly, passion radiating from every syllable she speaks. “It’s the brand on which this company made itself what it is, isn’t it? By any means necessary?”
“That appeals to me,” she says. “That appeals to me as a woman... as a competitor... as a student of the game... But more than anything? That appeals to me as a woman and competitor with a long and decorated career ahead of her.” Athena brushes off her shoulder as if it were dirtied. “So why not start the next chapter of that long and decorated career right here in EHWF? Why not skip right past getting my foot in the door and go straight to KICKING THE DAMN DOOR DOWN?!” She aggressively kicks the air for emphasis, earning impressed bewilderment from the women in the audience who know how difficult movement like that can be in pants like what Athena’s wearing. “Which brings me to the last, but perhaps the most important reason I chose EHWF. You see, when I first heard Chaos would play host to the EHWF Unified Global Championship at Meltdown, I just knew I had to be part of it.”
Anticipation matriculates throughout the sold-out crowd.
“I’ve held a respectable number of titles in my career,” she boasts, though her tone suggests a concession to follow. “But I’ve never broken through that glass ceiling and raised a world championship over my head. I’ve fought in nearly every stipulation match you can think of, but never a Meltdown Chamber. I figure, why not kill two birds with one stone? Why not kick down two doors at once?” The crowd, although hesitant to support this woman knowing her recent behavior, is on their feet and rambunctious nonetheless. “So I’ll do whatever it takes to get inside that cage. I’ll face whomever I’ve got to face, and I’ll kick whomever’s ass I’ve got to kick! I’m the perfect woman, the perfect person to kickstart a new era on Chaos and in EHWF abroad. Because when I set my mind to something, it’s getting done… by any… means… necessary.”
Athena inches closer and closer to the ropes nearest the hard camera as she speaks, eventually concluding her remarks while leaning over the top rope and glaring intensely into the lens of the aforementioned primary production camera. Her eyes narrow. With an imperious scowl on her face, the Firebird drops the microphone out of the ring and blows a sarcastic kiss into the camera, her theme song kicking into gear.
ALEXANDER CORVIS: “DAMN if that isn’t an entertaining possibility, Maddie, don’t you think?”
MADDIE MURDOCK: “Athena and Casey Holliday’s styles do make for an intriguing matchup, I’ll give you that. She’s throwing herself right into the fray, though, Alex. Really makes you think…”
Athena offers one last theatrical bow before vacating the ring and sauntering nefariously up the ramp. Once on the stage, she turns back to the ring and holds her hand up next to her head, fingers curling slightly into the shape of talons. She then uses those fingers to flutter a wave goodbye and disappears through the curtain, allowing us to fade to black.
We cut to ringside where Patricia Downs is waiting with a mic.
Patricia Downs: This following contest is set for one fall!
The fans pick up and cheer as Naomi Banks’ tron plays and she makes her way out on the stage. Naomi comes down the ramp, slapping hands and hyping up the fans before sliding into the ring and getting ready to start her match.
Patricia Downs: First up tonight… Being accompanied by Sativa Biscotti… The Hood Mona Lisa… Naomi Banks!
The lights go out. 'Bad' by Royal Deluxe begins to play. A single spotlight shines over the entrance. Inside the spotlight Isis has her back turned to the camera. She turns around. Flexes. Holds her pose for a couple of seconds. Then she saunters down to the ring with the spotlights following her. Upon reaching the ring she walks up the ring steps, walks across the apron. She signals for the referee to come over to open the ropes. The ref obliges. She walks to the center of the ring, awaiting her are three full length mirrors. The lights in the arena come alive. Isis turns around to look at herself in the mirror. She flexes to her hearts content admiring what a physical specimen she is. She turns around, drops to the mat, performs push ups in a manner where she is simply showing off. Isis walks over to the turnbuckle, she leans back as she watches people remove the mirrors from the ring. She remains there until the match starts.
Patricia Downs: And next up… Her opponent tonight… Being accompanied by one half of the EHWF World Tag Team Champions, Nephthys… She is the other half of the EHWF World Tag Team Champions… The God of Destruction… ISIS!

Patricia Downs: Here is your winner… one half of the EHWF World Tag Team Champions… The God of Destruction… ISIS!
Alexander Corvis: Massive win for ISIS who just can’t be stopped! I can’t remember the last time she lost a match!
Maddie Murdock: She only has one damn loss to her name and seemingly nothing can stop this beast!
ISIS and Naomi have a staredown in the ring as Naomi is seated on the mat, hurt and tired. ISS looks over at her but the lights suddenly go out…
Alexander Corvis: SHIT! The lights are out! What now dammit!? What the fuck now!?
Maddie Murdock: Lights out! We can’t see shit!
Suddenly the tron booms on and we can faintly see ISIS and Naomi still in the ring. Sativa and Nephthys watch from the outside as a video of chains flies through that eventually connects to a red beating heart… After a while… The heart on the screen turns black and Remi Skyfire’s music hits!
Alexander Corvis: NO WAY! NO WAY! NO FUCKING WAY!!
Maddie Murdock: She’s back! Look out!!
Remi appears in the ring behind ISIS and Naomi! ISIS turns around! The fans LOSE IT as Remi looking far more athletic and powerfully built readies herself as ISIS turns around! Remi explodes off and starts hitting ISIS with big right hands!

Maddie Murdock: What a freaking blur! How the fuck did the fastest person on the planet get even fucking faster!?!
ISIS is back in the ring and she drops Remi with a right hand then comes off of the ropes and nails Remi with a big clothesline! ISIS grabs Remi and throws her into the corner then starts hitting her with big right hands! Another another another another another! She rocks Remi with another and another! It’s brutal! She whips Remi into the next corner! Remi leaps up to the top rope with amazing athletic ability! Remi leaps off and turns midair for The Sex Pistol (The Magnum) but ISIS ducks it and Remi barrel roles up to her feet agains the ropes! ISIS runs at her but again Remi pulls the top rope down and ISIS crashes to the outside! ISIS runs back in just as Remi slides out of the ring and a gang of producers and refs swarm the area!
Alexander Corvis: JEEZ! Shit just got REAL! I can tell you I had no idea that was gonna happen! I didn’t expect THIS tonight!
Maddie Murdock: Remi Skyfire is back and she just rained on ISIS’s parade here tonight and made a massive impact!
Mya Gomez’s music hits and the fans go wild as the action is broken up by staff. Remi Skyfire looks back at the stage from the ramp as Naomi and ISIS yell out to her! Mya Gomez comes out on the stage and gestures for calm.
Mya Gomez: All right! That’ll be enough of that! Remi, welcome back, I can see you’re just as fiery as ever and you couldn’t wait to get out here tonight… so that’s great!
Remi nods along and raises her arms to the cheering fans.
Mya Gomez: I’m glad you’re all reacquainted with each other tonight because I was informed that as General Manager of Chaos, I have quite a challenge ahead of me at Meltdown. I have to put on a better Meltdown Chamber than the Mayhem Meltdown Chamber… Looking at Mayhem, my father and my uncle already have their Chamber participants set for Mayhem… Me, I want to do things a little different this year!
Mya Gomez takes a few steps down the ramp as she locks eyes with Remi, ISIS and Naomi.
Mya Gomez: The Mayhem Meltdown Chamber is all Male this year… So the Chaos Meltdown Chamber is going to be all Female this year… And I have the perfect people in mind to enter the chamber!
The fans go NUTS as Mya smirks and ISIS is in the ring raising her arms and pointing to herself with the crowd getting louder.
Mya Gomez: I see 3 former EHWF Global Champions in front of me right now! 3 of the greatest fighters on the planet… So… Remi Skyfire, ISIS and Naomi Banks will be entering the Chaos Meltdown Chamber to challenger Casey Holliday for the EHWF Unified Global Championship!
Alexander Corvis: OH SHIT! That’s huge! Remi just got back! ISIS, Remi and Naomi all join Casey Holliday in the EHWF Chaos Meltdown Chamber!
Maddie Murdock: I’m sure Casey Holliday will be thrilled to learn this!
The fans LOSE IT as Remi, ISIS and Naomi all calm down and seem pleased with the announcement!
Mya Gomez: And I know what Casey Holliday is gonna say! She’s gonna say that Remi just came back, she doesn’t deserve this entry… Or… Naomi lost to her at Final Destination, she doesn’t deserve this entry. Well, that’s just not true because these are the best and brightest on Chaos… Which means Casey won’t be happy with my next piece of news…
The fans get louder as Mya looks down the barrel of the camera and smirks.
Mya Gomez: We’re all about opportunity! We’re all about change and we’re all about being new and vibrant which is how we’re different and better than Mayhem! Athena Veronica made her debut in EHWF tonight. You all saw what she had to say earlier in the night… She’s a very highly sought after talent in this industry and I’m really glad I could get her on the Chaos brand… And to do that, I’m announcing that she’ll be entering the EHWF Chaos Meltdown Chamber for the EHWF Unified Global Championship!
Alexander Corvis: Athena Veronica! One of the most exciting and popular talents out there! She’s just signed to EHWF and already she’s in the chamber!
Maddie Murdock: That’s shaping up to be one of the most intense Meltdown Chamber matches of all time but we still have one person left to enter!
The fans go CRAZY as Remi, ISIS and Naomi look less impressed but Mya backs up the stage and lets off with a short wave.
Mya Gomez: Which means I just need to find one more competitor to make this the best EHWF Meltdown Chamber ever… so be prepared for next week because I’ll be on the hunt for something that’s going to make this Meltdown Chamber match GO OFF!!
Mya’s music hits as she leaves the area. A smirking Remi Skyfire turns her head back to ISIS and Naomi in the ring as the fans are going CRAZY and we fade out backstage.
Katelyn De La Vega is excited by this opportunity to face a fellow champion, Casey Holiday, in competition. She is dressed for competition in full gear, ready to rock, but there is a bit of trepidation in the moment, trepidation that she shall address here and now. She steps into the camera’s frame, hands resting on the championship around her waist, the EHWF colors hung proudly behind her on the wall of the set she resides in.
KDV: So I thought that when ISIS, her sister, and myself all took care of the Age of the Fall that it was the end of that story, the book closed and the sun set upon the horizon. So here I am in the biggest match of my career, no my life, against *The* Global Champion, Casey Holiday. Regardless as to how you might feel about her, she is one of the biggest and best names in EHWF.
She tilts her head forward.
KDV: I’m in an incredible battle here, for I know I have no friends here and now to stand with me, surrounded by the Age of the Fall and the Global Champion, one who is an opportunist who will use everything she has against me and she’s going to need it. She’s a smart wrestler and given that, by comparison, I’m a rookie who’s only been in the business for a year and a half, but…
Kate removes the championship from her waist and holds it up in front of the camera.
KDV: …How many rookies do you know would have won a championship against five seasoned and tenured wrestlers, some of them long time veterans such as Lord Raab and Amber Fein? I’m so proud of myself for that night and the many that have followed, beating opponent after opponent, only to now find myself face to face with the Global Champion of EHWF, Casey Holiday, in a main event match no less.
A small smile crosses her lips as she looks down at the belt in her hands.
KDV: Not bad for someone who started her wrestling career as a stand in for someone else, doomed to be a forgettable replacement.
She places the belt upon one of her broad shoulders and looks upon the camera with the pride of accomplishment.
KDV: Casey, I hope that you will face me with honor, but I know that you won’t. You’ll use the Age of the Fall against me any which way you can in order to try and be the dominant champion that you think you are, but I’m going to test you and press you in ways that few ever have. I promise you this, for the lessons I have learned along the way that have led me to this moment, main eventing a card against the holder of the highest belt in the land, have primed me well. I am ready, are you?
Ms. De La Vega holds the championship up towards the camera while staring into the camera with all the intensity she can muster.
KDV: IT….IS….SHOWTIME!!!
She then turns, lifts her leg, and spins around with a mighty clomping stomp of her boot upon the floor for emphasis. With nothing further to say, Kate turns and exits the frame; stage left.
Casey Holliday is backstage with her Unified Global Championship around her waist. She managed to retain said title against Braddock and yet, this doesn’t appear to be enough for her to be happy in any way. Still, she’s approaching the match that she has coming up just like any other and her intentions are definitely going to be clear enough once she begins to express her thoughts.
Casey Holliday: I made a statement at Braddock’s expense when I retained this championship against him. It wasn’t just winning the match in and of itself. It was what I did after the bell. You had the commentary team be like “all this just over a poster?”
Casey pauses and scoffs at this very question before she continues on.
Casey Holliday: Please, I am by no means superficial. The poster only scratched the surface of it. There were plenty of other examples of why I had to make the statement that I had to make. Look at the Pay-Per-View that we just happened to have where my match wasn’t even the main event the way it should’ve been. In fact, Brianna Rossi and Ana Somnia was more hyped up of a match than I was. It stands to reason even though someone like me is the champion that this company wants to hang on to the same old thing and cater Chaos to the “old names”.
I’m not going to stand for that and when I basically routed Braddock out of the building a few weeks ago, that was something that I made very clear. Perhaps, when you look at this match, they might have gotten the message clear enough. I mean hey, at least I am in the main event where I belong tonight. That’s something that I’ve got going for me. Katelyn De La Vega is going to be a tough customer to deal with and I would know all about that considering I even teamed with her once when she walked in the door.
Hell, she even won the Showtime Championship after I traded that belt in to get the shot at the belt that I have right now…
You’re welcome for making room for you there, Kate. But something I do want to say is that I’ve got to keep things going and I’ve got to maintain my strong dominance! I have to defend this championship against all reasonable odds very fucking soon in this Meltdown Chamber thing and the last thing that I need right now is any form of distraction that can fuck me over…
….aaaaaaand, this match is a lumberjack match with the Age of the Fall being involved…
Casey pauses again, this time to let out a sigh and she even adds an eye roll on top of that.
Casey Holliday: I have two issues with this. For one, the Age of the Fall just can’t seem to fucking go away as they continue to be the wannabes that they are, acting as if they are the big bads and the evil villains and the kingpins around here. Two? That group? They’ve had more recent run ins with Kate than I do. Basically, they’re HER problem. Not mine… HERS…
But they want every title so damn bad, huh?
Listen, here’s what I have to say to the Age of the Fall. I’m not an enemy of yours. I just happen to have something that I want, something that I feel like none of you are good enough to have as a whole and something that I can definitely be confident enough to say that you are NOT going to win from me. Go to Mayhem and try winning what amounts to easier titles to win from easier champions to dethrone because Chaos is MY show and MY terrain and I’m sick and tired of other people trying to interfere on that. I’m the one with THE title that everyone wants and I don’t need help from any of you people to beat Katelyn De La Vega. That is nothing but a pure and simple FACT.
Katelyn, really… I don’t have a personal thing against you and you’re going to be a far more worthy opponent than Braddock could ever hope to be. But at the end of the day, you should know right out of the gate that I don’t take kindly to people like you carrying their baggage into my sightline just like this match clearly illustrates. I’m going to make sure that you stay safe and just focus on my hand me down championship that you only won because I vacated in the first place.
I’m going to beat you…
And if necessary, you’ll be used as a message also… just like Braddock was…
Haters. Gonna. Hate.
Casey then scoffs once more before she leaves the room to a chorus of boos as the scene fades out.
We cut in-ring where Patricia Downs is waiting with a mic.
Patricia Downs: This following main event contest is a Champion vs. Champion Lumberjack match and it’s set for one fall!
Katelyn’s music plays over the house speakers, “Hero” by Victorius. Katelyn De La Vega walks through those curtains to the cheers of a large crowd packing the Arena tight with bodies elbow to elbow, chairs filled, and some could argue that there may have been more bodies than seats. The amazonian brunette raises her fist into the air to a large pop from the crowd. She then runs down the aisle and slides into the ring. Promptly, Kate rolls to her feet and shoves her fist into the air again, this time with a loud shout.
She cuts an impressive figure in her new black leather vest, an ornate winged V on her back in bright teal. Her attire is simple yet practical, black trunks and boots with sensible knee pads, a sports top with another winged V that runs along her neck line and down the front of her chest, this one white with blue highlights, and fingerless gloves to complete the look.
Kate removes her vest and drapes it atop her corner, then leans back against it, arms draped upon the ropes with a serious gaze as she awaits the start of the match.
Patricia Downs: First up tonight… She is the EHWF Showtime Champion… Katelyn De La Vega!
The crowd boos loudly as the riffs of "Strange Girl" by Halestorm hits the speakers. After about a minute, Casey Holliday walks out through the curtains and the first thing that is noticeable is her arrogance as she walks down the ramp. She does much scoffing and laughing as she hears the fans continue to get on her case. When she enters the ring, she ignores the booing crowd, which only serves to incite them to cheer her louder. Casey has a laugh to herself at this, as she starts to focus on her match and the song fades.
Patricia Downs: And next up… Her opponent tonight… She is the EHWF Unified Global Champion… The Star Pupil… Casey Holliday!
DING DING DING
Main Event: Casey Holliday vs. Katelyn De La Vega

Maddie Murdock: Casey watching it all unfold! This could be really good for Casey if she can capitalise straight away when Katelyn gets back in!
