==========================================================
LeeAnn Viskan: Welcome ladies and gentlemen to the final episode of Trauma before March Mayhem! Now, as you are all aware… we have a stacked card full of matches between some very bitter rivals… including the two women who are set to officially sign the contract for their match at the event here this evening. Now before I bring them out, I did consider having security out here with me as it is evident that these two cannot keep their hands off of each other. But then I decided that instead of wasting resources, I’d make this simple… if either one lay a finger on the other? Their match at March Mayhem will be canceled and both will be suspended indefinitely!
The fans let out an audible “oooo” at the mention of this news.
Seth Ernst: Our General Manager laying down the law here tonight, Mir!
Miranda Augustino: That’s what happens when you screw with the Mistress of Pain.
Viskan nods firmly.
LeeAnn Viskan: Now with that said… please welcome the first woman involved in this match… she is a former NFW Genesis Champion. Diamond… Caldwell!
“I Am The Fire” by Halestorm blasts out of the PA system and the fans boo heavily as Diamond Caldwell walks out onto the stage dressed in a pristine white suit accompanied with a red blouse and red high heels. She turns her nose up at the booing fans as she swiftly makes her way down the ramp and once she reaches the ring, she climbs up the steel steps and then through the ropes before making her way past Viskan and takes a seat in the chair facing the stage as “I Am The Fire” fades out.
LeeAnn Viskan: And now please welcome her opponent. She is a former NFW United States Champion. Stacy… Jones!
“Unbreakable” by Kingdom Collapse blasts out of the PA system and the difference in the crowd reaction is evident as the fans burst into cheers as Stacy Jones storms out onto the stage. She glares right at Caldwell as she begins to make her way down the ramp and once she reaches the ring, she hops up onto the apron and climbs through the ropes before taking a seat opposite her bitter rival as “Unbreakable” fades out.
LeeAnn Viskan: Okay, ladies. In my hand I have the contract for your match at March Mayhem that I shall ask you to sign momentarily. But first? If there is anything you wish to say to the other before we make this official? The floor is yours.
The two women glare at one another in silence for a few moments before Caldwell reaches for one of the microphones on the table and picks it up. She raises it up to her lips but before she can utter a word, Jones grabs the other microphone and raises it to her own lips.
Stacy Jones: No! Shut up! You don’t get to say a damn thing until I have said my piece!
The Unbreakable One sits back in the recliner and scoffs before shaking her head.
Stacy Jones: You know, Diamond? I can deal with the constant attacks… the little threats… all that shit. But you crossed the fucking line when you insulted my girlfriend! I mean… you of all people should know what it’s like to have your partner insulted, because it’s become a daily occurrence when it comes to Crystal. It’s awful, isn’t it? When your partner is constantly criticized… whether they deserve it or not. And did I ever stoop to that level? No! And before you try and say something like… it’s because Crystal and I are friends… we’re not. We used to be, yes. But she burned that bridge with me a long time ago. Long before you came onto the scene.
Jones pauses for a few moments before continuing.
Stacy Jones: Fact is, Diamond. You had already made this personal when you tried to end my career… but now? Come March Mayhem? You’re in for a world of hurt! It honestly doesn’t matter to me what kind of match we end up having… because deep down? I know that I can beat you. But can you honestly say the same about me? And don’t even try and tell me and these fans that you proved you could beat me last week because we all know you didn’t prove a fucking thing! You had to attack me with a steel chair before the match, blind me with some kind of powder AND put your feet on the damn ropes to keep me down for a three count!
The crowd is riled up. They are one thousand percent on Stacy’s side, obviously. All Diamond can offer in the moment to Stacy concluding with recounting what happened between them last week is a yawn.
Diamond Caldwell: Are you done?
Diamond rolls her eyes.
Diamond Caldwell: I didn’t come out here to listen to you whine, okay? I should be thanking you. I am so fucking glad you told me, the world and MY wife you two aren’t friends. Seeing her try to butter up to you on social media makes me sick. For whatever reason she hates that we’re at odds? I don’t get it. Hopefully that comes to an end like her buttering up Jessi Fn Ozborne when that bitch and her Queens of Chaos have no issues saying unflattering things. It’s whatever. I’m rambling. Yeah. Thanks for reminding the world why my wife shouldn’t kiss your ass like everyone else does.
Diamond takes a deep breath.
Diamond Caldwell: I’m not going to brag about last week. This is a lot bigger than wins and losses. Let me clear the air. This isn’t about the one time you beat me. That isn’t why I want you to sit at home watching the rest of us carry the torch. I am not lashing out because of one loss. How silly would that be? No. The reason we’re here right now is because you are freaking selfish.
The fans don’t like Diamond calling Stacy selfish. The audacity of Diamond? Before Stacy can react to Diamond’s claim, Dat Girl immediately interrupts.
Diamond Caldwell: I sat here listening to everything you had to say. Please. Let me finish.
Stacy sighs. Diamond leans forward, making sure to stare daggers.
Diamond Caldwell: I didn’t enjoy putting you in the hospital believe it or not. Last year when your war with Faye was the straw that broke the camel's back, putting you on the shelf for months, I was sad. I’ve never told anyone this. Stacy. Contrary to how things have broken down between us, I am one of the biggest Stacy Jones fans out there. I know. I know. I know. Bullshit right? If I am such a fan why would I continue this campaign to put you down?
Jones nods in agreement while Caldwell shakes her head in response.
Diamond Caldwell: Unlike the rest of your fans, I am the one who has the courage to do what is best for you. Wrestling is your life right? You’d die in the ring if given the choice? How do you think that makes me feel? I’ll tell you. Heartbroken.
Diamond takes a moment to compose herself. No one is buying her coming across as conflicted about everything that has happened.
Diamond Caldwell: Part of me hoped when they wheeled you in the back on a stretcher you would finally get the memo. What happened last year and between us earlier this year was a wake up call. The selfish pride you have would be washed away, you would come to grips with the fact that your body isn’t always going to hold up. Do I want to see you in a wheelchair? No. Do I want someone else to feed you food through a straw? No. But if that needs to happen to get you away from this sport... then so be it. I am not an enabler like the rest of your friends and family. I am the reality. I am the truth. I have your best interest at heart. Instead of getting the message, you need to be a stubborn bitch! I can’t hate that... so am I. I am stubborn as well. I learned it from you, Stace.
Diamond stands up. She walks over to where Stacy is sitting. Instinctively The Unbreakable One stands. Both women are face-to-face.
Diamond Caldwell: At March Mayhem, one way or another, this ends. Hopefully with you being unable to wrestle ever again. You will hate me, probably do right now. Sometimes we need to make the tough decisions for the people we love when they don’t know any better. Stace... I love you. In seven days, I’m going to break your heart... and mines as well when I put… you… down!
Diamonds reaches for the contract. She puts pen to paper. Plopping the contract back on the table she backs away so she is leaning up against the ring ropes. She’s prepared to exit the ring.
Stacy Jones: Selfish, huh? I’m selfish?
Jones shrugs.
Stacy Jones: Maybe I am selfish… maybe I am selfish, but why do you think that would be, Diamond? See I grew up going through school as the freak… the one who nobody gave a shit about… the one who would never become anything! It made me feel worthless! And I almost went down a path of drugs as a result… but do you know what stopped me from doing that?! I was introduced to this business! I became addicted to THIS! When I look out at these fans and I see the little girl in the front row wearing an “Unbreakable” Stacy Jones T-shirt…
She points out to a young girl in the front row wearing that exact shirt, all the while keeping her eyes locked onto Caldwell.
Stacy Jones: ...I am compelled to make sure she doesn’t feel the same way I did back then! When I look out at the young boy with Downs syndrome three rows back…
Now she points to a young boy on the other side of the arena in the third row.
Stacy Jones: ... I am compelled to help him believe that no matter who you are?! You can become somebody! When I look out at the teenage goth sitting behind Seth Ernst who looks like she’s sick of her life…
The Unbreakable One points to a teenage goth sitting behind Seth Ernst.
Stacy Jones: ... I am compelled to help her forget about whatever is troubling her and give her something to smile about… even if it’s just for one solitary moment! So yeah, Diamond… I am selfish… selfish to myself because I LOVE this business because it SAVED MY LIFE!
Jones picks up the contract and signs it before handing it over to Viskan.
Stacy Jones: So you can try all you want to end it all for me at March Mayhem. You can think whatever the Hell you want of me… love me or hate me… I REFUSE to let someone else dictate to me when I should hang up the boots for good! I’ll be seeing YOU in one week, bitch!
The Unbreakable One then tosses her microphone onto the table as “Unbreakable” blasts out of the PA system again and she proceeds to exit the ring and hops down off the apron before making her way up the ramp.
Seth Ernst: Quite the emotional ending to this contract signing, Mir.
Miranda Augustino: Stacy wears her heart on her sleeve and has always spoken from the heart.
Stacy continues her way up the ramp, not looking back at all as the camera switches over to Diamond as she watches her opponent leave, and Dat Girl actually looks a little emotional herself.
Seth Ernst: Well it seems as though Stacy’s speech hit Diamond hard too.
Miranda Augustino: I think she’s finally beginning to grasp the situation she’s in.
Jones then disappears through the curtain as we cut elsewhere.
==========================================================
Ayu Megumi: I'm sorry about what happened last week. I want to apologize to Alexandra for what happened. I feel bad because I should have been more in control of my emotions. At that time, I thought too little, I let my anger control me. Which doesn't happen very often for me. I want to sincerely apologize to everyone for that from my heart. Yeah, I mean, I'm also sorry to Lana for what happened last week. She's right. She didn't make me lose. But it was because I couldn't concentrate enough to complete my match. It's my fault for blaming Lana like that but I can promise tonight anything like that won't happen again. I don't want to mess things up like that anymore. But tonight, what I want most is to talk to Lana... Yes, I want here and right now, Lana, if you can hear me, please come out here.
Ayu lowered the mic before she turned her gaze to the titantron as she waited for her challenger to walk out of the backstage. After a couple of moments “Burn” by Stabbing Westward hits the speakers. The crowd erupts into a chorus of boos and hate. Lana Corvin steps out from the back. She is in her ring gear with her entrance coat on over it. She slowly saunters to the ring. She climbs the steps and enters the ring, She circles Ayu, getting a mic from a stagehand.
Lana Corvin: What do you want, princess?
Ayu lowered her head to look at the mat before she scratched her head slightly before she slowly raised her gaze to Lana before slowly raising the mic to speak again in front of her challenger.
Ayu Megumi: Please... stop calling me princess because I'm not a princess, I'm a fighter and I'm calling you out here because I want to talk about our upcoming match. And in case you didn't hear me, I apologize for what happened last week. But I guess it doesn't matter anymore, right? Anyway, let's get to our story, Lana. I just want to say that no matter what the stipulation in our match is, I will devote my life to defending my championship. And no matter how hard you try to take it away from me I'll do everything to make sure you can't take anything out of my life. I have my dignity to protect that is almost indistinguishable from yours. I can't go back now, I have my girlfriend. and my sister who is watching over me. This will be a match that might make me more talked about as Ayu as one of the three Megumi and I want to win this match to get out of my family's shadow…
As Ayu spoke Lana was obviously bored. She was looking around, just waiting for Ayu to stop talking. Once she realized the Champion wasn’t going to stop anytime soon she lifted a hand up.
Lana Corvin: Stop. Stop, stop, stop. Just stop. I don’t care, princess. I don’t care that you want to get out of a shadow you obviously belong in. I don’t care that you are gonna do all you can to stop me from taking what I rightfully deserve. Out of all of that rambling, you said one proper thing. Being in that ring with me, one on one, no matter the rules, will make you famous. Us Corvins kind of have that ability. Our presence and natural appeal can rub off on our opponents. So, I’ll give you your welcome for that. But that is the ONLY thing I will be giving you. I am going to take that title. I am going to show that you had to try and be liked while being like all those that came before you. You had to put yourself out there, open challenges abound, for that title. You had to offer people a shot at that title to make them want to get into the ring with you. You want to talk and brag about defending that title as many times as Stacy Jones. But you neglect to mention that you did most of those defenses in a short time. Throwing out opportunities for it like they were candy. Between the two of you the value and prestige of that title has sunk to pitiful levels. Don’t worry, though. Once I relieve you of that, I will rise its value back up. Once I take that title it will be one to be respected again. It will be THE title everyone wants. Simply to get their fifteen minutes of fame in that ring with me.
Lana paused and looked at Ayu. Her eyes almost willing the Champion to speak.
Ayu Megumi: If you say that I devalued this champion, I think that's incorrect. If so, why do so many people regard me as a champion? You may not be praising me, but that's just the tip of the iceberg. You know, Lana, I did that because I followed what the previous champions did, it was my promise to Ibbie. I don't want the spirit of the previous champion to disappear. It's true that I may not be a champion in my own way but I think I did my best. I never brag of how many times I defending my championship. I never brag about what I've been through. Where we differ while you keep boasting that you can do better than me because you think you are better than me. You keep bragging about what you've been through. Before you say I'm doing it to brag, why don't you take a look at yourself in a mirror? I'm not angry that you underestimated what I did. But I will prove what you said wrong. You could be a good champion. Yes, I do not deny it. You may be a better champion than me. yes, I don't deny But I have enough dignity to say how valuable this champion was when it was with me. I may not be a very self-indulgent champion. But it's filled with the spirit of the previous champions who did the open challenge and I respect what they've built. Therefore, I am not wrong to do that. And I don't see that as devaluing my champion. And like I said, you don't have to respect me. 'Cause I don't want respect from people like you who don't believe in me It's not wrong that I try to make everyone like me. But don't forget that they have the right to choose, I'm not forcing them, they want to hate me. Or like me, that's what they choose. But I do it for the dignity of my family and myself as well. Megumi was never a worthless champion so I don't think you can insult me that I made a champion worthless.
Ayu walks close to Lana and lifts her champion before reaching her champion onto Lana's face while Ayu looks into Lana's face with a serious gaze like no one has ever seen before.
Ayu Megumi (off-mic): No matter how many minutes it takes, I will beat you in the end! So, you can take my titles now but I will retain my title again at March Mayhem.
Lana steps back and looks Ayu up and down.
Lana Corvin: Whoa whoa whoa there, princess. Calm down. Wouldn’t want to lose your cool and do something else you’d have to apologize for. You can hang on to that title for now. Just make sure you take this next week to cherish it. Shine it up really nice too. I want to see my reflection in it when I raise it up as the new NFW United States Champion. When I finally bring back a long needed status to that title.
Ayu approached Lana with a gaze as serious as she had never been before. Ayu slowly held NFW United States up in front of Lana, while not even a slight smile appeared on Ayu's face.
Ayu Megumi: I don't quite understand what you're saying but I don't give you this championship easily. I'm tired of being devalued by you for what I've always done. I will end this problem I will end everything and at the end of this story I will not have any regrets for everything. And I won't give up until I can't fight again. I don't know when it will end. But I have engraved my name on this champion and you cannot erase my name.
Ayu threw the mic to the ground before she held the NFW United States Champion in Lana's face and moved it so it almost touched Lana's face. Ayu's expression was different from usual.
Ayu Megumi (off-mic):You look into it. Do you see yourself enough?
Scene fade away.

Bron Brooker, Jacy Dayne, & Dana Baszler walk out to meet Lilith Parker, Zara Ivory, & Kaya Parker in the center of the ring. Jacy and Dana run in and get flapjacked in stereo by the Parkers.

Result: Pinfall (Parker-Go-Round)
==========================================================
We’ve been here before. Many a time, in fact.
Leina Rael-Anderson-Debaillion is present, chatting up Eric Donavan as he dishes out the meals as people come by. He seems to be telling her a story of some sort, one that has the young lady’s rapt attention, her stare only paused for exclamations of surprise and bouts of laughter. Others are listening in, or at least trying to; when they focus too much on the conversation, a stern glare from Eric sends them off on their way. And off to the side, sitting alone at a table is Damon Cross. Leina shoots a look his way every now and again with moments of concern on the Fiery Fifth-Grader’s face.
As to the Unforgiven himself, he’s silent. He has a pen in one hand, scribbling in his ever-present leather-bound book, while he has a polished green apple in the other. Bites are taken now and again, the back of his hand wiped across his lips. Rarely does he take his eyes off his writing, and only then to check on Leina. That is, at least, until someone invades his space. Nathaniel Dixon, coming up seemingly out of nowhere, cavalierly takes a seat across from Damon, looking rather calm for some reason. Cross does not indicate that he realizes Dixon is there, but it’s clear that he knows: the momentary set to his jaw before it is released, the tension in his shoulders for a moment before he relaxes again… both are clues. But for several moments, Damon makes no outright noticeable changes to his manner or demeanor. Until…
Damon Cross: You have no concept of self-preservation, do you?
Initially, there is simply a glance toward Damon. Your Lord of Charisma reaches beside him and opens a musical instrument case. He retrieves the Stradivarius that’s so rarely presented and draws the bowstring in his right hand. Placing the string instrument into the traditional position, his earth-colored eyes gaze across the hallway at his newfound rival.
Nathaniel Dixon: Death is an old friend… and I know you don’t want any excuses on the horizon of March Mayhem.
How bold to assume Cross would not attack him right then and there. Dixon seems confident in this. Closing his eyes, he gently draws the bowstring over the prestigious violin and begins to play. The tune resembles “Sound of Silence” by Disturbed and it captures Leina’s attention. She looks up to see the two across from each other and concern immediately falls upon her face.
Leina Rael: Oh, what the hell…
Eric follows her gaze and his own nearly-black eyes narrow sharply. He puts a hand on Li’s shoulder as if to keep her from wandering over. Damon, on the other hand…
Damon Cross: And you’re willing to stake your opportunity at the championship that you covet so dearly on that thin hope?
Cross shakes his head, taking a final bite of the apple before setting it down, his pen long since having stopped moving across the page. A slow breath is taken before Damon shakes his head.
Damon Cross: A few weeks ago that might have been true. At this point, there’s nothing between us but air and opportunity. Nothing stopping me from doing to you what others would love to see done to you. Certainly, nothing you can do to stop me. So I ask again: you have no concept of self-preservation, do you?
Nathaniel Dixon: There it is. The same mistake so many others make… Underestimating me.
A soft ‘tsk’ follows the words, but the playing of the violin doesn’t stop. It ebbs and flows. Dixon’s eyes never open to the threats.
Nathaniel Dixon: “Nothing I can do to stop you”? On the contrary, there are plenty of ways. You continue disappointing me, Mr. Debaillion, but perhaps that’s no surprise… You’re still the monster you always were. Nothing’s changed. No amount of redemption can take away your true colors once they’re revealed. The trouble in paradise must be severe.
His keen observation skill is apparent. Ascending into the chorus of the music, Dixon smiles. Damon, however, chuckles softly.
Damon Cross: Says the man who can’t see the forest for the trees.
The Unforgiven taps his index finger to his temple.
Damon Cross: But that’s the difference between you and I: I see the world for what it is. You’re happy in your delusions. And you’re welcome to them. Whatever it takes to get you out of bed and into the ring at March Mayhem. Whatever it takes to stain my hands with your blood and smear it AND Kai’s over that championship as I hold it high.
Another pause, then-
Damon Cross: WHATEVER it takes.
Nathaniel Dixon: Speaking as the real villain you are.
The smile never fades and the music continues to play. However, Nathaniel’s eyes finally open and he stares right at Damon -- as if gazing into his very soul.
Nathaniel Dixon: Once again, I find myself in an intriguing position… where I am, in reality, the lesser evil. The God of Ascension. The Leader of the Emo Cult. The Esteemed NFW Undisputed Champion. How amusing.
London’s Master Manipulator knows how to work. Once he crescendos into the finale of the song, he lowers the Stradivarius and relaxes the bowstring. A rise to his feet and he simply bows.
Nathaniel Dixon: It’s just a matter of time before you all fall.
Leina walks up, full of vitriol, but Damon gently puts a hand on her shoulder and shakes his head. “Not this time,” he seems to say without words. Her cheeks puff out defiantly, but for once she decides not to unleash her vicious diatribe. Instead, she stands with her Pops, who puts his attention back on Nathaniel for another moment.
Damon Cross: You’d know all about falling, wouldn’t you? I wonder what your sister will say when you fail again. What you just can’t latch on to, Dixon, is the fact that for all your pride and silver words, you are the common denominator to each and every one of your shortcomings. Your failures are all in YOUR head. Not some imaginary force holding you back, not people conspiring against you, not this cruel world having its way with your destiny. No. It’s you. JUST you. You gain amusement from pointing out my shortcomings? That’s yet another difference between you and I.
The book is handed to Leina, who holds it carefully and protectively, wrapping her arms around it as Damon puts his palms on the table, leaning in closely towards Nathaniel.
Damon Cross: I own my darkness, my faults… my failures. I do not shy away from my crimes or my responsibilities. While you don’t have the strength to do the same. That’s what makes me powerful. That’s what puts food on my family’s table, gold in my trophy case, and red on my ledger. And if a few more drops of crimson is what it takes to grab history by the throat and make it my own?
A few notes of quiet laughter emit from Damon, but he lifts his head with a fierce scowl that even makes Leina tense up.
Damon Cross: I’ll do it with a fucking smile.
Although his eyes narrow, a soft chuckle escapes Nathaniel’s parted lips. He seems nonchalant while he sets the Italian string instrument and bowstring into their respective case. Once it’s secured with soft clicks, he takes the handle in his left hand and regards Damon once more…
…except he suddenly PUNCHES the Unforgiven across the face!
A gasp is drawn out from Leina who can’t believe her widening eyes. The Intellectual Evolution has never been one to react impulsively. It’s no token shot, either; Damon is turned aside by the hit and the unmistakable touch of red drops on the floor says plenty. Eric is still staring, but then, so is everyone else. Perhaps it’s the lighting, but a shadow looms over Nathaniel’s eyes and darkens them. To the surprise of perhaps everyone, he doesn’t say a word. Just turns on his heels and walks away. Taking a moment to recalculate, the Cutest Little Badass slowly reaches out and takes her father’s hand.
Leina Rael: Dad…?
Straightening up, Damon prods the inside of his cheek with his tongue, the tip of which extends past his lips to take in a little of the crimson coming from the split flesh. A small smile forms on his lips.
Damon Cross: Checkmate.
Accepting Li’s hand, the two walk off… the young lady looking concerned, the man looking determined.
==========================================================
~DING DING DING~
The bell rings, and Cherry comes out of her corner like a shot, flooring Lana with an absolute blast of a clothesline. She hooks a leg, but Corvin kicks out before the referee even has a chance to count. The 2nd generation superstar immediately transitioned into an armbar, but Addams rolls through, slamming a fist into Lana's jaw. Her head snaps back, and her grip loosens, allowing Cherry some separation. She circles slowly, eyeing Corvin like wounded prey.
Lana rises to a knee, and when Cherry comes in to press her advantage, Corvin shoots up to her feet with a forearm to Cherry's jaw. Addams stumbles back a step, only to eat the immediate follow up enzuigiri from Lana! Corvin goes for a cover, but Cherry kicks out at two. Lana pressed her advantage, rage on her face as she mounts Addams before raining down a series of rights that forced the referee to separate both women.
Cherry gets to her feet, and Lana shoots in this time. Addams tries to catch Corvin off guard, looking for a dropkick, but Lana's got it scouted, dodging at the last second. Cherry is quick to roll and attempt to get to her feet, but Corvin hits Hecate's Dagger! The palm strike stuns Cherry, who stumbles long enough for Lana to pull her in and execute the Spear of Diana! She hooks the leg, and the referee makes the three count, awarding Corvin the win.
~DING DING DING~
Thea Crawford: Here is your winner, Lana Corvin!
Seth Ernst: Looking strong before her U.S title shot against the champion, Ayu Megumi!
Miranda Augustino: Damn straight, hombre!
Winner: Lana Corvin
Result: Pinfall (Spear Of Diana)

Once the teams are in the ring, LeeAnn Viskan spins the Wheel of Mayhem on the stage and waits for it to come to a gradual stop before announcing…
LeeAnn Viskan: This match…is a TABLES MATCH!! Single elimination!! Tear it down, girls!
She waves a hand towards the ring as the referee calls for the bell and all hell breaks loose as Bene Elohim rush across the ring at the Salvatores!!
~ Ding Ding Ding ~
The twins quickly take Adrianna and send her through the ropes to the floor. They set up a table right there on the floor but before they can do anything to her, Lluvia jumps out onto them from the top turnbuckle, smashing down onto Remiel and bouncing off of her into the barricade. Adrianna hits a big lariat on Hananiel and bounces the black-haired twin’s face off the table. Remiel gets up and kicks Lluvia down hard before hitting Adrianna in the back. Adrianna tries to spin into a lariat on the red-haired twin but Remiel ducks it and spinning heel kicks Adrianna instead. The larger Salvatore goes down and Bene Elohim roll her into the ring. They bring a second table in with them. Arianna gets to her feet and starts hammering away on both twins, bringing the crowd to its feet as she battles the forces of Bene Elohim.
Crowd: ADRI-ANNA!
*Clap, Clap, Clap-Clap-Clap*
ADRI-ANNA!
*Clap, Clap, Clap-Clap-Clap*
ADRI-ANNA!
*Clap, Clap, Clap-Clap-Clap*
ADRI-ANNA!
*Clap, Clap, Clap-Clap-Clap*
Remiel and Hananiel both try to slow the Amazon Salvatore down but she knocks both of them down repeatedly before grabbing their own table and setting it up in the middle of the ring. She grabs Hananiel and sets to powerbomb her through the table but Remirl saves her twin with a low blow from behind. The twins hit the Revelator and then give Adrianna a flapjack that smashes her through the table and elimination.
Adrianna Salvatore has been eliminated
The crowd sits there in shock as the twins stand back up. Remiel goes to get another table. Hananiel walks over and steps through the ropes to look for Lluvia. Llivia slides into the ring and hits a dropkick that catch Hananiel in the back and sends her flying off the apron through the table set up earlier and elimination.
Hananiel has been eliminated.
Crowd: HOLY SHIT!!! HOLY SHIT!!! HOLY SHIT!!! HOLY SHIT!!! HOLY SHIT!!! HOLY SHIT!!! HOLY SHIT!!! HOLY SHIT!!! HOLY SHIT!!! HOLY SHIT!!! HOLY SHIT!!! HOLY SHIT!!! HOLY SHIT!!! HOLY SHIT!!! HOLY SHIT!!! HOLY SHIT!!! HOLY SHIT!!! HOLY SHIT!!! HOLY SHIT!!!
Remiel brings the third table into the ring and dives into the ring next to it under the bottom rope. Lluvia comes after the red-haired twin and starts trying to beat her down. Remiel gets to her feet and the two start trading shots right there, Remiel, Lluvia, Remiel, Lluvia, Remiel, Lluvia, Remiel, Lluvia, Remiel, Lluvia, Remiel, Lluvia, Remiel, Lluvia, Remiel, Lluvia, Remiel, Lluvia, Remiel, Lluvia, Remiel, Lluvia, Remiel, Lluvia. Remiel spins into a kick that sends Lluvia back towards the corner. Remiel sets the table up and runs it into Lluvia violently. Lluvia pulls away and climbs up to the top. Remiel follows her and the two trade up there as well. Remiel tries to get a front facelock for a superplex but Lluvia shoves her off of the hold. As Remiel tries to regain it, Lluvia shoves her again and Remiel loses her ba;ance. The red-haired twin plummets down and mashes through the table as Lluvia watches in shock and then triumph.
~DING DING DING~
Thea Crawford: Here are your winners, Adrianna Salvatore and Lluvia Salvatore!

Crystal Hilton: Mirror, mirror on the wall who is the fairest and most beautiful of them all?! Oh what’s that mirror, of course it is yours truly! You want to know why it is you?! It’s because you are the most beautiful thing in the mirror. Hell you are the most beautiful thing in all of this locker room. There isn’t a single soul who can tell you any differently.
Crystal shakes her head in disgust as she laughs and speaks some more.
Crystal Hilton: Obviously for those who don’t know me let me take this time to introduce myself to all of the beautiful people out there. My name is Crystal Hilton. I am the Rose Goddess, I am the Reflection of Perfection. Whenever I stare into the mirror I see nothing but a beauty queen in front of me. I am definitely a ten and as I always say perfection simply doesn’t fail. These past few months I might have dwelled in the realm of being the loveable little gamer girl. Normally that would be me but tonight is a special case. Tonight being in the ring with Alex calls for something special and she is going to get Crystal fucking Hilton. You are going to get the woman who doesn’t give a damn about anything. The only thing on my mind is being a woman who is better than you. Who knows that she is the best thing on the roster, and you don’t have to tell me twice.
Crystal runs her fingers through her hair.
Crystal Hilton: Any other day Crystal Caldwell would come back to your scheduled programming but if I am going to enter into Alex’s world I am going to do it at my very best and I won’t be holding anything back. All of this shit started because that Bitch Alex couldn’t just accept the fact that I really wasn’t prepared to face her. I will admit that Diamond overhyped me up a bit and did her job as a wife to believe in me but I really hadn’t believed in myself. However she told me to do some soul searching and I believe that I can go out there and win this match tonight. I am know I am that chick who can do anything she puts her mind too.
Crystal chuckles.
Crystal Hilton: After all Crystal Hilton is that Hollywood Queen. NFW better roll out the red carpet for me tonight because a lot of star power will be entering into that ring. I am going to bring all of my experience and everything I have into that ring to prove that I am the best thing around. The book of Crystal Hilton states in Chapter 2 verse 3 that all shall bow and fall before the Rose Goddess. It’s time to feel some thorns. Alexandra Callaway bring it but I guarantee that it simply won’t be enough…
With that Crystal smirks as she walks away and we go elsewhere.
==========================================================
Alexandra Calaway: This moment, right here. This is the exact moment I spoke about on my social media. The moments where you have mere seconds left before a match. You can feel the tension in the air, the electricity of the crowd. I’ve heard it all evening. You can feel it no matter where you go in this building. And it’s that electricity we all feed off of. And it’s tonight that you all will be repaid for EVERYTHING that you give us.
She pauses, taking another moment, her thoughts flowing through her mind so quickly that it’s almost hard to process everything that has happened in the past few months. From finding her daughter, rescuing her, to rekindling a lost love with Jack, to losing her best friend to death. The only finality of the living. The one thing you can never come back from.
Alexandra Calaway: The past few days, I’ve had a lot of time to think about things. About how things I want my future to look and what I must do to get there. Less than a month ago, I lost a best friend. Someone who came into my life because of this industry. He spent time with me in several companies I had been in, so many that he was more than just a friend, he was family. And this.
She lifts the Genesis Championship up and looks at it, before taking a breath and continuing. Something fills her so much and she stands up. Her focus now is on her competitor, Crystal.
Alexandra Calaway: Crystal, you and I. We’ve had words for each other for weeks now. This, right here, was bound to happen sooner or later. What’s about to transpire in the ring, that is the culmination of everything we’ve been building to. This is what NEEDS to happen. It’s not going to be easy and by the end of this, if you can stand toe to toe with me in that ring, if you can go the distance and survive my House of Horrors match, then I can promise you will have gained an iota of my respect. But, let’s face it, this right here.
She taps it and takes a breath. Her eyes dropped to the belt then back up into the camera one last time. A few moments pass and speaks once more.
Alexandra Calaway: My Genesis Championship isn't leaving me any time soon. I continue to fight when there’s nothing left in my tank, when my back is against the wall and I feel there’s nothing left inside me. When I feel that there is no one watching my back. I continue to fight. I don’t need to be everyone’s friend and I don’t want to be. I’m here to leave a legacy. Tell me Crystal, was is it that YOU are fighting for?
With that said, Alexandra hears the match prior to their’s ending. She smirks, looking into the camera again, kissing her title.
Alexandra Calaway: Crystal, Welcome to Alexandra’s House of Horror Match. See you in Hell.
She blows a kiss at the camera then shoves it away, walking off the view of the camera.
==========================================================
Thea Crawford: Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is scheduled for one fall!
Crowd: ONE FALL!
Thea Crawford: It is your main event of the evening! It will be contested as a 15 Minute House of Horrors match and it is for the NFW Genesis Championship!!
All of a sudden we can see photographers lining up in front of the entrance aisle. The lights begin to flicker and a red carpet is rolled down to the ring. We can see an old school Hollywood countdown landing on the screen

It is at that moment that the lights begin to go really crazy and we are able to see a blue haired beauty emerging through the curtains to the sound of massive cheers from the audience. She isn't alone as she is accompanied by a tall blonde. The blue haired vixen does a twirl and lifts her arms high into the air before her wife Seleana Zdunich wraps her arms around Crystal and smiles at everybody. The two excitedly walk their way to the ring as the crowd roars at these two ladies
Thea Crawford: Ladies and gentlemen making her way to the ring being accompanied by her wife Seleana Zdunich. She stands at 5'5 and weighs in at 115 pounds. Hailing from Los Angeles, California by way of Detroit Michigan she is the Countess of Cosplay, the Hollywood Heroine, and the Burning Rose... Give it up for Crystal Zdunich-Caldwell!!!!
The crowd roars as they chant CZC over and over.
CZC!
CZC!
CZC!
Crystal smiles as she looks into the cameras and screams at the top of her lungs. "FLAME ON!!!" Flame pyros begin to go off which causes the crowd to erupt into louder cheers. Tonight Crystal's attire appears to be a green one piece Poison Ivy cosplay that shows off plenty of body. She wears matching red boots and red elbow pads to portray the image of being a plant. Seleana stands firmly at her side her long blonde hair wrapped into pigtails. She is clad in a black and red one piece and is doing her best with her Harley Quinn Cosplay. Seleana carries a huge black and red rubber mallet. The two women smile as she stop and slap the outstretched hands of the fans cheering them on. The photographers just snap photos of the couple as Crystal screams out of excitement for the attention that she is getting.
“I love all of you… Don’t forget I am the best thing on the Splat network. Watch my matches, watch my television series, and catch me at a booth at your nearest comic convention. I love all of you!!!”
She blows kisses as she continues her way to the ring. She stops at the ring and quickly jumps onto the apron as Seleana takes her place at ringside. Crystal looks around before she does a jumping split to enter the ring. She pops back up to her feet and nods her head as the fans get behind her with more CZC chants. Crystal bounces around a bit as she waits for the match to begin as Seleana claps excitedly for her wife
The lights go down and "Mine" by Halestorm starts to play. The arena is filled with Red and lights and fog. The Silhouette of Alexandra can be seen at the top of the ramp. She poses on the top of the ramp and as the beat drops, her Genesis Championship around her waist, she starts to make her way down the ramp, towards the ring. Stopping halfway down the ramp, she stops looking out over the crowd, before continuing on. She smirks seeing some of the signs people made, a cocky smirk crosses her face.
Thea Crawford: From DALLAS, TX.. SHE IS OUR CURRENT REIGNING GENESIS CHAMPION, ALEXANDRA CALAWAY!!!!!
Finishing her walk down the ramp, she climbs onto the ring apron and up onto the turnbuckle. She slips into the ring and poses on the ropes, leaning forward on the ropes, sometimes talking shit with people in front row. She takes off the Genesis Championship and kisses it, before handing it over to the referee.
~DING DING DING~
Seth Ernst: Tonight we might just see the end of Alexandra Calaway's Genesis Championship!
Miranda Augustino: Crystal's going to have her work cut out for her Seth, if you believe that she's walking out of here tonight as the Genesis Champion, then you are seeing completely different matches than I have. Alexandra has been on fire since her first match here.
Both ladies are in the ring, both staring daggers at the other, Alexandra holding a barbed wire wrapped baseball bat over her shoulder as Crystal has her kendo stick at the ready. Yumi looks at the two women and calls for the bell. The two women immediately drop their weapons as they circle around the ring for a moment before they just go head on at each other and immediately begin just throwing wild punches at one another. Eventually Crystal begins to get the upper hand as she sends Alexandra into the corner. Crystal charges in, but Alexandra is able to throw her boot up, connecting with Crystal causing her to stumble back. Alexandra immediately reaches behind her and pulls down a steel chair from the cage. Alexandra brings the chair up, swinging and connecting over the head of Crystal with a sickening sound. Crystal drops to a knee as Alexandra brings the chair up for another swing, but Crystal is able to swing a right fist, connecting to the exposed midsection of Alexandra, causing her to drop the chair behind her.
Seth Ernst: That right there is exactly what someone with a big mouth, like Alexandra deserves. Everyone here see's that. She needs to be knocked down a few pegs, her ego is getting the best of her, tonight Crystal takes that championship. I can feel it.
Miranda Augustino: This match is totally a creation of Alexandra's twisted mind. Everything in this match she knows is there. And considering she's the ring veteran, I'm sure she's more than capable of seeing Crystal's next move coming.
Crystal gets back up to her feet, grabbing Alexandra by the hair and drives her face first into the mat with a facebuster. Crystal gets to her feet, looking around at the cage and all the various weapons hanging around it, ranging from a cheese grater to a bundle of light tubes. Crystal walks over to the far side of the ring and reaches up, pulling down a trash can. By this time, Alexandra is back to her feet, but as she turns to face Crystal, she’s met with the trash can as Crystal swings it and hits Alexandra over the head. Alexandra stumbles back a few steps as Crystal takes the trash can and swings again, connecting across the head of Alexandra as she drops to a knee this time. Crystal brings the weapon up a third time and connects as Alexandra drops to the mat and Crystal goes for a cover, but Alexandra manages to roll her shoulder up off the mat at two.
ONE!
TWO!
KICKOUT!

Crystal sees the steel chair on the mat as she drags Alexandra closer to the corner before she places it across the Genesis Champion’s chest. Crystal climbs to the top rope, but as she’s trying to get her footing, Alexandra is up, throwing the steel chair and connecting to the head of Crystal. Crystal falls onto the top turnbuckle where Alexandra climbs to the top, grabbing Crystal and delivering a superplex. Alexandra doesn’t stop there though as she grins and grabs her barbed wire baseball bat off the mat. She sits Crystal up and brings the bat down, raking the barbed wire across the face and head of Crystal who’s screaming in pain all while Alexandra has a sick, sadistic grin on her face. Alexandra pulls the bat away and we see Crystal just pouring blood. Alexandra doesn’t stop though as she brings Crystal to her feet, picking her up and delivering a brainbuster, connecting on the steel chair in the ring with a sickening thud. Alexandra hooks the leg for a cover, but Crystal gets her shoulder up at the very last moment.
ONE!
TWO!
KICKOUT!
TWO!
KICKOUT!
Seth Ernst: Couple of two count's now, one for each of the competitors. Is that? Crystal is bleeding now.
Miranda Augustino: What's that phrase Seth? Talk Shit, Get Hit, or Bitches Get Stitches. Either way, Alexandra is really giving it to Crystal and it doesn't look like she plans on letting up anytime soon.
Alexandra grabs Crystal, wrapping her hair around her fist, pulling her head up, mouthing something to her, but Crystal reaches up, delivering a slap to the side of the face of Alexandra, then another, and another, before Alexandra lets go of Crystal who gets up to her feet, swinging wildly as Alexandra ducks the haymaker before hitting Crystal with a kick to the midsection and then looking for Bow to the Queen, but Crystal is able to back drop Alexandra, causing her to land on the trash can, denting it into a hunk of metal. Crystal stumbles away, grabbing the kendo stick as Alexandra gets up to one knee. Crystal looks down, her face a crimson mask already as she brings the kendo stick down, connecting between the eyes of Alexandra. She swings again, connecting, a third, fourth, fifth time, each one cracking as it connects with Alexandra. Crystal looks around at the cage again and sees a piece of plywood that’s covered in barbed wire. She climbs up the turnbuckle and pulls it down, causing it to fall to the mat. Crystal gingerly takes the board, setting it up in the corner. She comes back over to Alexandra, picking her up, along with the barbed wire baseball bat. She sends Alexandra into the ropes and when she rebounds, Crystal swings the bat, connecting to the midsection of Alexandra who doubles over in pain as Crystal pulls the bat across the stomach of the champion. Alexandra drops to a knee as Crystal then grabs the cheese grater, pulling it down and running it over the face of Alexandra who screams out. As Crystal drops the weapon, we see Alexandra’s face covered in blood as it pours down. Crystal then grabs Alexandra and hits her with a tilt-a-whirl DDT right onto the steel chair and she goes for a cover, but Alexandra gets her shoulder up in the nick of time.
Seth Ernst: Finally! Crystal going for a pin here, is it going to be enough.
Miranda Augustino: NO! Alexandra get's her shoulder up just in the nick of time.
ONE!
TWO!
KICKOUT!
TWO!
KICKOUT!
Crystal doesn’t take her foot off the gas as she picks Alexandra up and pulls her towards the cage. She takes the face of Alexandra and begins to rake it across the cage, causing Alexandra to scream out, opening the wound on her forehead even more. Crystal takes Alexandra and she looks to deliver Flashing Light, but Alexandra is able to avoid it and deliver a V-Trigger, connecting to the bridge of the nose. Alexandra stumbles around, noticing a small black bag on the cage. She grabs it, untying it and dumping out hundreds of thumbtacks. She grabs a handful before she grabs Crystal by the hair, forcing her mouth open and dumping the thumbtacks into it before she backs up and charges in, hitting Crystal with another V-Trigger that sends the thumbtacks flying out of Crystal’s mouth. Alexandra has that sick sadistic grin return to her face as she pulls Crystal up to her feet. This time, she delivers Bow to the Queen, driving Crystal face first into the thumbtacks before she shoots the half and goes for a cover, but Crystal manages to kick out.
ONE!
KICKOUT!
KICKOUT!
Alexandra looks around, spotting two more chairs hanging on the cage as she pulls them down. She sets them up in the middle of the ring before she grabs the barbed wire covered plywood and sets it up across the tops of the chairs. She picks Crystal up, but before she can do much, Crystal shoves her off and this time hits her with Flashing Lights. Crystal walks over, grabbing the small bundle of light tubes off of the cage and as Alexandra is getting up to her knees, swings them down, breaking them over the head of Alexandra as a cloud of dust fills the area. Crystal looks at the contraption set up by Alexandra and she picks the champion up. She pauses for a moment, hesitating a little bit and that’s all the opening Alexandra needs as she delivers a kick to the midsection before she takes Crystal and brings her up, hitting the Apocalypse through the barbed wire board as she collapses on top of Crystal and Yumi counts to three.
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!

Thea Crawford: Here is your winner, by way of pinfall... AND STILL GENESIS CHAMPION, ALEXANDRA CALAWAY!
Seth Ernst: Crystal definitely gave it her all today, but it just wasn't enough to take the Genesis Championship away from the Dark Queen Alexandra Calaway.
Miranda Augustino: Crystal didn't have what it takes and tonight, Alexandra walks out with the championship once again. Now the better question is, going into March Mayhem, will Alexandra be in one piece to face off against her fellow Queens of Chaos stable mate, Nakita Niles.
As soon as the bell rings, the NFW medical team comes rushing into the ring to check on both ladies who are lying there, blood covering both of them, the mat stained with both of them tangled up in the barbed wire. They gingerly move Alexandra off of Crystal before carefully moving Crystal, getting her out of the barbed wire. Yumi and a couple of the medical staff help Alexandra up to her feet, but she pushes them away, stumbling back into the ropes, before almost falling out of the ring and barely able to get to her feet as she grins and takes the Genesis Championship from Yumi before stumbling up the ramp as medical continues checking on Crystal. Stopping at the top of the ramp, Alexandra drops to her knees, looking at the carnage in the ring, before raising her Genesis Championship above her head and turn her attention to the sky, as the screen fades to black.
Winner: Alexandra Calaway
Result: Pinfall (Apocalypse)
