HIJOU vs Tyson Everest
------------------------------------
{ The instrumental intro to Blue Stahli's "The Fall" bursts out as the Kings of Flight walk out onto the ramp. They both pull back their hoods and yell out to the crowd in order to hype them up. The team vault opposite barricades, walking through the sea of fans until they reach the ringside area. }
Alison Valance: Making their way to the ring, at a combined weight of 403 poundsā¦ Tyson Everest and Charlie Van Ruth, the Kings of Flight!
{ As they stand on opposing sides of the apron, they simultaneously vault over the top rope and into the ring, meeting in the center. The two exchange a quick chest bump before getting into their corner. }
Iyo Kenshin: Tyson Everest is stepping into the ring for some singles action here tonight taking on HIJOU, who has been rather impressive since her debut in the IWF!
Rayne: And thatās going to be his downfall here tonight, Iyo. HIJOU. She is very precise with her strikes, she is dangerous, and she is only on an uphill trajectory with how she has performed! Tyson Everestā heā he is a tag team wrestler. This is not going to be his light tonight!
{ Lots of flashing lights, the tempo of which are dictated by the utter mess of sound that is her theme song. HIJOU genuinely loves what she does, so she's usually pretty excited and high-energy during her entrance, rocking out and dancing along to her entrance music as she strides down to the ring. She may occasionally still be in the midst of her pre-match preparations whilst making the walk, so seeing her head down to the ring with a cigarette or a can of Monster isn't too uncommon. Once within the ring she'll strike a few poses. }
Iyo Kenshin: And here is HIJOU looking to gain a win here tonight.
Rayne: No doubt about it, Iyo, sheās going to win tonight.
DING!
{ The Aerial Archer and HIJOU circle the center of the ring, Tyson showing his general fast-paced tactics before finally swooping in to go for a fast single leg takedown! HIJOU avoids the takedown by backing into the corner and starts firing away with several knee strikes to battle the Aerial Archer back a couple of steps and then catches him off-guard with a spinning backfist! HIJOU comes out of the corner only to be caught with a scissor leg sweep, and Tyson quickly takes advantage to get HIJOU into a side headlock while grounded on the mat. HIJOU proves her own resilience by hurrying back to her feet but Tyson keeps the hold locked in. }
Iyo Kenshin: The Aerial Archer, Tyson Everest, has that headlock locked in, but HIJOU is not going to easily break here! She looks to be going for the ropes but to no availā¦
{ HIJOU is stopped from getting to the ropes by Tyson Everest, and HIJOU is able to slip out before turning it into a hammerlock! Tyson Everest swings for an elbow, only for HIJOU to duck underneath, and the two start going back and forth with one anotherā HIJOU with some success in the striking game, keeping her focus against the legs of Tyson Everest to keep the Aerial Archer unable to use the speed to his advantageā¦but Tyson Everest still has answers for HIJOU, and during a moment that it looks like HIJOU is gaining the edge, he counters with a beautiful armdrag! HIJOU rolls through and is right back to her feet, turning toward Tyson Everest and rolls forward with the KOPPOU KICK catching Tyson off-guard! HIJOU goes for the quick cover! }
ONE!
TWO!
{ Tyson kicks out just in the nick of time, but is still dazed from the shot from HIJOUā¦and HIJOU gives him no time to rest as she forces him back to his feet and looks to be calling for the end of the match as she goes for the OVERHEAD KICK! TYSON EVADES! HIJOU brings her foot down hard, seeming to aggravate a muscle in her leg and Tyson catches her with a CUTTER and immediately transitions to a DRAGON SLEEPER! He has HIJOU in the center of the ring with nowhere to goā¦she flails her arms into the air to try to reach for the ropes in an act of desperation, but being far too away from the ropes, she finally has no choice but to submit! }
Rayne: He turned that around really quick, and a surprising win here tonight!
Iyo Kenshin: Surprising in the fact that he just scored a submission. It looks like heās feeling some of the damage that HIJOU had placed against his legs earlier and wasnāt able to see one of his more traditional finishes, but a win is a win!
{ Tyson pumps his fist into the air while the referee holds his arm up and he is declared as the winner to the sold out audience. }

Charlotte Shimizu vs Zasshu II
------------------------------------
{ Before the music starts, the tron lights to show a red sun slowly rising over a broad expanse of ocean. The image flies apart into a flurry of red feathers and pink flower petals as the music hits. When the introductory chorus drops, Charlotte strides out, right fist pumping into the air in rhythm with the words āOh yeahā.
She circles the outside of the ring after the intro chorus and the first verse, pausing briefly at each side to work the crowd before climbing nimbly up to the apron before the last line of the verse. On the apron, she takes a running start from one corner towards the ringpost opposite. At the last second, she jumps up to the second turnbuckle and flips over the top rope, landing feet together and hands raised just as the chorus hits again. She again circles, pumping her fist high in time with the pounding guitar and screaming vocals of MYTH & ROID.
As the chorus comes to its end, Charlotte stands in the center of the squared circle and bows from her waist to the audience, her hands clasped at her chest. To her fading music, she strides purposefully to her corner and starts shaking out her hands and rolling her neck in preparation for the coming match.
Charlotte walks slowly up the ramp, smiling slightly and giving some love to the cheering crowd. At the top, she turns to face the crowd and, with her hands clasped at her chest, she bows at her waist to the crowd before leaving. }
Alison Valance: Making their way to the ring, weighing in at 126 poundsā¦ Charlotte Shimizu!!!
{ The arena begins to strobe purple as the intro to Victorious by Nita Strauss starts to play. As the lyrics kick into gear, Zasshu comes walking out through the curtain to a burst of pyro with her hands up. She poses on the stage in a fighterās stance before continuing to the ring. She rolls in under the bottom rope and runs across the ring to jump onto the second turnbuckle. She holds her hands up as the chorus wraps up before dropping off and waiting for the match to begin. }
Alison Valance: Making their way to the ring, weighing in at 130 poundsā¦ Charlotte Zasshu!!!
{ Jessica Andrews is on referee duty for this one. }
Rayne: This is my second most anticipated match of the night behind the Invictus Championship Match. Both of these relative newcomers have been impressing the hell out of me and one or both could be a breakout star in the Heiress to the Throne next year!
Iyo Kenshin: I totally agree, Rayne. Zasshu has been nothing but impressive since her debut and Charlotte has been turning heads since day one. Iām very excited for this as well. }
{ The bell is sounded and Zasshu looks like she wants to take a measured approach to things but Charlotte is all about her speed and high flying abilities! Zasshu attempts a tie up but itās Charlotte who capitalizes with hand spring arm drag that she follows right up with a springboard dropkick. This barrage of speed and second rope offense continued for several more minutes as Zasshu tried to find her footing in the match but it was all Charlotte showing out to the enjoyment of the crowd. Things turned around for Zasshu when Charlotte went for a rope walk chop and Zasshu was able to counter it into her own armdrag. Zasshu took control of the match there with a belly to back suplex! Zassh kept control by targeting the left leg of Charlotte at this stage of the match with several leg whip variations and even attempted a figure four that Charlotte was able to escape. }
Rayne: You are really seeing a clash of styles in this contest!
Iyo Kenshin: Both of them are high skilled in different forms of offense and you are really seeing it here tonight!
{ Zasshu attempted one of her signature moves, a top rope hurricanrana that Charlotte was able to roll through with ease and counter with a Western Sunrise! Charlotte went back to the ropes with a diving Meteora and a near fall but Zasshu was able to get her shoulder up. Charlotte continued to string her offense together with some chops and a spring board Rana into a double leg cradle pin attempt but Zasshu was able to kick out again. Charlotte went to the ropes again and tried for a crossbody but Zasshu caught her with a backbreaker. Zasshu went on the offense with a striking combo that she ended with a Shining Wizard! Zasshu then went back to the leg work on Charlotte and brought her to the mat with a leg whip. Zasshu attempted another submission only for Charlotte to escape. Zasshu saw an opening at this point and connected with a Spiked Rana! Zasshu made a cover here but only got a two count! }
Rayne: The action keeps going back and forth! Zasshu strings together some moves and then Charlotte does the same!
Iyo Kenshin: Itās incredible watching these two young athletes go back and forth!
{ Zasshu tried to keep her advantage going but it was all for not when Charlotte went for a victory roll that broke things up. Zasshu kicked out again but Charlotte came in with a head scissors take down!! Charlotte kept control of things for the next few minutes with a tilt a whirl ddt followed right up with a senton splash. Charlotte kept pressing her new advantage by hitting a backfist and a facebreaker! Charlotte saw her moment to finish things off and connected with Gigage Tsunami! Charlotte went for a cover and almost got the three but Zasshu just got her shoulder up in time. Charlotte went to the top rope from here looking to connect with her finishing move but as she came off the top Zasshu dodged the attack. Charlotte hit hard and Zasshu was right there with an Ode to the Ace! Zasshu followed up that attack with an Orange Crush Bomb and capped things off with the Zasshu Driver for the pinfall and the victory at 15:47! }
Alison Valance: Your winner by pinfallā¦ ZASSHU!!
{ Zasshu shakes Charlotteās hand after the match. }
Rayne: Incredible just as I thought! These two competitors have a very bright future ahead of them!
Iyo Kenshin: And I canāt wait to see where the future brings them!

"What's next for Rob Diamond?"
------------------------------------
{ We come back from the break to Keybo Shabaz in the ring. }
Keybo Shabaz: Ladies and gentlemen, put your hands together as we officially welcome back to IWFā¦. ROB DIAMOND!!!
{ Suddenly the lights drop out as the opening riff of Bad to the Bone by George Thorogood hits. The entire arena lets out a collective cheer. The graphics on the screen show some of the many highlights of the career of Rob Diamond. The lights in the arena start to strobe pink as the second, third, fourth and fifth riffs all hit with pink pyro launching out of the stage and just as the lyrics kick in, Rob Diamond steps out to enormous cheers! Rob Diamond walks down the ramp slapping hands with the crowd. Rob smirks and points toward the ring as he marches forward. Rob runs up the steps and steps into the ring. Rob hands Alison Valance a note card. }
Alison Valance: At this time it is my honor and my privilege to introduceā¦ THE MASTER OF DISASTER! THE FACE OF THE FRANCHISE! THE SULTAN OF SWAT! HE IS THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME! ROB DIAMOND!!!!
{ After the introduction, Rob throws up both arms with his index fingers in the air as pink pyro erupts along the ring apron behind him before hitting the biggest crotch chop of all time. }
Iyo Kenshin: Itās great to see Rob Diamond back in an IWF ring after the concussion he suffered earlier this year!
Rayne: And impressive after the beating he took at the hands of his brother, Chris Diamond. We are still allowed to mention him, right?
Iyo Kenshin: I believe so. And youāre right. Rob went to hell and back against his brother Chris at Survival of the Fittest and in the end it was Rob who stood victorious officially ending Chrisā ability to ever be involved with anything wrestling related ever again!
Rayne: I heard heās considering acting.
Iyo Kenshin: I hope he gets cast as an extra in one of Crystal Hiltonās straight to Lifetime + movies.
Rayne: Ouch.
{ Keybo gives Rob and the fans time to celebrate as they cheer, chant and everything else. Eventually they calm down as Rob meets Keybo in the center of the ring. }
Keybo Shabaz: Rob, itās so good to have you back.
Rob Diamond: Itās good to be back here in PORTLAND!!!!
{ The crowd goes nuts for the cheap pop. }
Keybo Shabaz: I think everyone wants to know how youāre feeling after that grueling unsanctioned match with your brother at Survival of the Fittest?
{ Rob looks around as the crowd boos the mere mention of Chris. }
Rob Diamond: I feel like I got into a fist fight with a meat grinder if Iām being honest and came out the other side as a penis shaped meatloaf. BUT WHO DOESNāT LOVE MEATLOAF!?
{ A meatloaf chant starts for some reason. }
Keybo Shabaz: Itās amazing you came out on the other side at all considering your recent concussion issues.
Rob Diamond: Look, Keybo, Iām not gonna lie because Iām a face now and thatās not what we do. There was a very real moment when I was considering hanging up the boots forever.
{ No chants kick off. }
Rob Diamond: I know, I KNOW! I didnāt want to either. And truth be told my concussion back in that tag match with the Work wasnāt a career ender but it did open up my eyes. The doc, he told me one or two more that bad and I could be looking at a life not worth living. So he recommended I hangāem up while Iām still young and healthy. BUT then Chris had to go and try to force my hand.
{ More boos and fuck you Chris chants. }
Rob Diamond: I agree, I AGREE! But he didnāt know what he didnāt know and I got healthy again. I got cleared again and after talking about it with Mama and Hope and lil Spike and taking out a very healthy life insurance policy we all decided as a family that Iām not done in this ring just yet!
{ Huge cheers. }
Keybo Shabaz: Thatās great news, the being back part not the life insurance part, you may want to look into that a bit more. So Rob, I think the next question on everyoneās mind is whatās next for Rob Diamond?
{ Rob looks around as the crowd cheers him on. }
Rob Diamond: Well Keybo. The landscape has changed around here since I was away. Weāve got some people I havenāt faced before. Weāve got some genders I wasnāt allowed to face before. Weāve got some titles I havenāt won before. So whatās next for me? Thatās easy. Get back in this ring, do the work like Iāve always done and earn a shot at a belt Iāve never won before. And screw it, Iām just gonna go ahead and announce myself for the Roulette. Itās been way too damn long since Iāve held that big golden belt and Iād like to see if itās a tight as it was when I last held it. Bottom line. Whatās next? If you got a belt then Iām coming for that belt. And I come hard.
Keybo Shabaz: He does, or so I hear.
{ Rob takes the mic from Keybo. }
Rob Diamond: Excuse me Keybo. AND IF YOU AINāT DOWN WITH THAT! IāVE GOT TWO WORDS FOR YA!
{ Rob throws the mix up as the whole arena screams āSUCK IT!!!!ā }
Iyo Kenshin: Thatās huge news! Rob Diamond is gunning for every and any title and heās announced himself for the Roulette!
Rayne: Bold move on Robās part what with how injury prone heās been.
Iyo Kenshin: I wouldnāt call a concussion being injury prone but he does need to be careful. One bad shot to the head and this golden return could turn into a nightmare.
{ Bad to the Bone hits as Rob exits the ring to slap hands and take selfies with the people at ringside as we take another commercial break. }

Bueno Club vs. Atara & James Raven
------------------------------------
Alison Valance: The following contest is scheduled for one fall! Introducing firstā¦
{ The house lights dim slightly as the words āOLĆā appear on the screen. The fans begin chanting along with the music as El GrandĆ© Malo bursts out from behind the curtain. He stomps his way out to the center of the stage, bouncing up and down in time with the music. El Grande Uno pushes through the curtain behind him and makes his way to the center of the stage, cracking his neck from side to side and grinding his teeth. Malo and Uno hops up and down pointing into the air. Malo quickly begins jogging down toward the ring, slapping the outstretched hands along the way, while Uno stomps down the aisle behind him. }
Alison Valance: Making their way to the ring, representing Bueno Clubā¦ they weigh in at a total combined weight of 450 poundsā¦ El Grande Malo and El Grande Uno!
{ Malo slides into the ring and heads for the nearest corner. He scales the turnbuckles and continues to hype up the chanting crowd before dropping down and pulling on the nearby top rope. Uno has entered via the stairs; scaling the turnbuckles and staring out at the chanting crowd, before hopping down. Malo and Uno stretch while waiting for the match to begin. }
Alison Valance: And their opponentsā¦
{ "Bleed It Out" ( the Reflexx Remix) by Linkin Park brings the team of Atara and James Raven down to the ring. }
Alison Valance: Making their way to the ring, hailing from Toronto, Canadaā¦ weighing in at a combined weight of 360 poundsā¦ The Ravens!!!
{ The Ravens make their way inside the squared circle. }
Iyo Kenshin: This should be an exciting match up in a tag team division that has seen quite a few teams eyeing up the Champion's prizes, Rayne.
Rayne: The only way Malo is ever going to hold a belt here is if someone else makes him carry their stuff into the building, on his own at least. That big guy he has at his side tonight though, that intrigues me. I want to see what he can do.
Iyo Kenshin: Teamwork is the name of the game though, Rayne. With all due respect to our other teams here, who will have better teamwork than a husband and wife, like the Ravens are?
{ The official for this contest, Tommy Knocker, calls for the bell. }
Ding!
{ Atara Raven and El Grande Malo begin the match for their teams. Malo lands some well-placed kicks to the hamstring of Atara, hobbling her. The leader of Bueno Club finishes with a spin kick to the midsection of Atara, doubling her over. After securing Mrs. Raven's arms in some double underhooks, Malo hits some knee strikes before delivering a devastating DDT that drives Atara's head into the canvas! A rather nonchalant cover by El Grande Malo earns him a two count before Atara kicks out. Bringing Atara up off the canvas, Malo falls victim to a jawbreaker. The luchador wanders around the ring, holding his chin. Atara goes on the offensive with a string of European uppercuts under that chin, potentially hindering Mexico, Maine's greatest luchador from enjoying the lobster. Atara rocks Malo with a headbutt, and follows that up with a Overhead belly-to-belly suplex to land Malo closer to the Ravens' corner. Atara tags James in, making Mr. Raven legal. Atara stays in, however. The Ravens work a double team on Malo. Atara grabs Malo around the waist, from behind. With Malo secured, James runs the ropes and catches Malo with a flying knee to the chin before Atara finishes by planting Malo on the back of his head with a release German Suplex! }
{ James Raven tries for a cover as Atara exits, but cannot hold the luchador's shoulders to the mat for more than a two count! James brings Malo up and turns him into a beautiful swinging neckbreaker. With Malo down, James has time to land a Springboard Corkscrew Elbow drop on the luchador! Mr. Raven tries for another cover, but Malo kicks out millimeters before the three count! James leads Malo to the Ravens' corner, where another tag is exchanged between the husband and wife team. The Ravens team up to whip Malo into the ropes to take him down with the most feared maneuver in tag team wrestling: the double clothesline!! Having sustained quite a few blows to the head area already, Malo is very slow to even try to get up as James Raven steps out. El Grande Uno stomps his foot to try to rally Malo; but it isn't long before Atara is back on Malo, delivering a chain of three Rolling German Suplexes to the luchador! The Ravens continue to make frequent tags, targeting the head and neck of Malo as they pour on the offense. Mexico Maine's own luchador spends what feels like an eternity isolated from his partner. As the match crosses the fifteen minute threshold, James Raven re-enters again off a tag from Atara. James starts tuning up for the F.Y.S, which is his version of a superkick. Anticipation is building in the arena amongst the fans thanks in no small part to James' over embellished theatrics. A wobbly Malo struggles to his feet. The People's G.O.A.T. launches into his kick, but Malo ducks it! Malo counters with a Pele Kick that takes James down! Both men lay on the canvas until James starts to stir as the referee reaches a count of "five"! By the official's "seven", James is up and turning for Malo. El Grande Malo makes a desperation dive though, tagging in big El Grande Uno! }
{ El Grande Uno greets James Raven with a hand around his throat, hoisting him up for a massive chokeslam! Atara Raven comes in, but Uno introduces her to the canvas with a thunderous spinebuster! James Raven is back up momentarily, but that moment is fleeting as Uno dishes out a discus lariat to James! The big beast then turns to catch Atara Raven with a Samoan Drop, depositing her on top of her husband! Atara rolls from the ring. El Grande Uno takes James Raven into a pumphandle position and serves him up a stout facebuster! Uno tries for a cover, but James kicks out at two! The big man is feeling the momentum though. Uno hoists James Raven up, looking for "Numero Dos"... but Atara comes back in to make a well-timed save by grabbing her husband's ankle for the block! Atara pulls James down. The Ravens slow the big guy down with a pair of stereo boots to the gut. They each take an arm, backing El Grande Uno into the ropes. They shoot Uno off, but Malo makes a blind tag on Uno's back! Uno busts up a double team attempt at a double clothesline by the Ravens with a huge spear to Atara!!! In the chaos, Malo comes inā¦ connecting with his SĆŗper Ćltimo Ataque to James! Malo makes a cover, and Uno adds some weight by pressing down on Malo's back with both hands! The referee slides into position for a count, and Bueno Club picks up a three count for the win. }
Ding!
Ding!
Ding!
Rayne: Bueno Club won?! Bueno Club won, Iyo!
Iyo Kenshin: That is a gigantic win for Bueno Club over two highly decorated superstars in the professional wrestling world!
Rayne: That monster of a man they have rocking that mask is going to make that group a force in the tag team division, mark my words.

Travis Levitt vs. Tytus Rost
------------------------------------
{ The bass kicks in through the PA and 'Ashes to Ashes' starts to echo around the arena. A small fog starting to slip from the stage, and as the music builds a melancholy atmosphere, from the back stalks 'The Phoenix' Travis Levitt. Dressed in his usual long leather jacket, hair cascading around his face as he walks out, and starts to pace down the ramp. The Phoenix reaches the ring, sliding in under the bottom rope and propping up onto his knees. Glancing around at the crowd, Levitt's face is one of focus as he slowly rises to his feet before stripping off his jacket, and turning to drop it outside the ring to the roadie, before he gets ready for battle. }
Alison Valance: Making his way to the ring, weighing two hundred and fifty pounds from Richmond, Virginiaā¦ Travis Levitt!!!
{The crowd turns its attention toward the entrance area as a lion roar echoes throughout the arena. They continue to watch as the drumbeat of "Tired of Winning" begins and from behind the curtain steps the hulking figure of Tytus Rost, his face like carved granite as he stares with cold eyes down to the ring.}
Alison Valance: Making his way to the ring, weighing three hundred and four pounds ā¦ from Norilsk, Siberia ā¦ The Russian Lion ā¦ Tytus ā¦ Rost!
{Rostās upper lip curls in a sneer as he begins to move with purpose down the ramp. Making it to the ring, Tytus stands on the floor for a beat before leaping up to the apron in a show of agility for a man his size. He wipes his boots on the outside ring apron before stepping in through the ropes and walks with purpose to the center of the ring.}
Iyo Kenshin: We are poised to see an incredible contest next!
Raybe: Thatās right, Iyo! Tytus Rost versus Travis Levitt! Tytus has the weight but Travis has the height! Itās brawn versus technique and itās right now!
{ Tommy Knocker is on officiating duties for this one and calls for the bell. Tytus kicked things off by trying to run Travis over but the more skilled Travis was able to dodge the attack. Travis attempted to turn this into a professional wrestling match but Tytus fought back against the attempts with his own power moves. The two competitors went back and forth several times in the opening five minutes of the match with neither getting a distinct advantage over the other for more than a moment or two. However it was Travis who landed the first big move of the match when he hit Tytus with the Phoenix Tear! But Tytus seemed to be more offended by the move than hurt and immediately countered with the Blackout! }
Iyo Kenshin: Tytus countered that knee strike with a folly of forearms!
Rayne: These two seem like the perfect mirror images of each other, this may be all about who makes the first mistake!
{ Tytus went for his finish after the Blackout but Travis was able to escape and keep his feet planted firmly on the mat. Travis tried to take control of things from this point with some of his striking offense but none of it seemed to pack the punch he was hoping for. Travis then sent Tytus into the turnbuckles but Rost exploded back out with a vicious looking clothesline. Rost took control of the match from this point with a series of slams aking to a child tossing around itās wrestle buddy. Including but not limited to a release german suplex, a powerslam, a high angle scoop slam and a full nelson slam. Tytus thought he was in a good position to wrap this match up with a series of Neverending Winter German suplexs by making a cover after the final one but Travis was able to get his shoulder up! }
Iyo Kenshin: Travis found the strength to kick out after a series of back breaking German suplexs!
Rayne: Travis doesnāt have the best win/loss record but you wouldnāt know it based on his performance tonight.
{ Travis fought back from the pinfall attempt with knife edge chops that only seemed to anger Tytus more. Travis switched things up with a headbutt followed by Renees Rise. Travis went for his first pinfall of the match but it was only a one count. Travis kept the offense on now as he hit a series of backbreaker to tries and loosen Tytus up and keep him off his feet. Travis saw an opening at this point and attempted his Resurrection Kick but Tytus avoided it and countered with the Event Horizon! Travis tried to get back to his feet but Rost was on him with Rasputins Kiss! Tytus saw the end of the match in sight as he picked Travis up and delivered his finishing move, THE END! Tytus made the cover and picked up the pinfall victory at 10:22. }
Alison Valance: Your winner by pinfallā¦ TYTUS ROST!!!
{ Tytus stands victorious in the ring after the match. }
Iyo Kenshin: An impressive outing for Tytus Rost as he begins his climb back to the top of the mountain.
Rayne: The champions of IWF need to watch out because Tytus is definitely a top contender for any belt he wants.

Alexandra Calaway (c) vs. Nick Knight
------------------------------------
Alison Valance: The following contest is scheduled for one fall and is for the Invictus Championship! Introducing first, the challengerā¦
{Every light in the arena is extinguished in the blink of an eye and the sound of a clock ticking begins to play at an almost deafening level. Every few seconds another clock joins the chorus until an alarm bell rings to quickly be replaced by the eruption of pyros that sends ghost white flames high into the sky. Then as the flames are quenched the opening keyboard of Blood for Miles by Deathstars begins to play.The arena stays dark except for a ring of fire with a figure standing in the center. The man is dressed in an ankle length black trench coat, wide brimmed black hat, a black leather plague doctor mask trimmed in brass covers his face, and he is carrying a cane. Stepping through the flames the man makes his way towards ringside, a spotlight tracking him on his way down the aisle. Halfway to the ring he stops and pulls an ornate watch from the pocket of his coat to check the time. The moment that he returns the watch to his pocket the words āTicktock The End is Now,ā appears on every single LED board.}
Alison Valance: Now making his way to the ring from Los Angeles, California āThe Hollywood Butcherā Nick Knight!!!
{Knight slowly walks to ringside, stopping just short of the ring to methodically strip off his hat and coat leaving him in black trousers with a thin gray stripe and his mask. Slowly the arena lights come back up as āThe Hollywood Butcherā unstraps the mask and hands it to the ringside attendant before climbing into the ring.}
Alison Valance: And his opponentā¦
{ 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, 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. }
Alison Valance: She is the Invictus Champion! From DALLAS, TX.. 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 the front row. She watches up the ramp, messing with her hair as she waits for the match to start. }
Iyo Kenshin: Rayne, Nick Knight has had some strong words for Alexandra Calaway since his pursuit of the Invictus Championship began. He clearly does not have an appreciation for the champion.
Rayne: They won't be exchanging Christmas cards this year, but hear me out- I think Alexandra is the smartest person in that ring for the way she's frustrated Knight. When you're the champ, you fight on your time, and the company's dime.
Iyo Kenshin: Is that how you would have approached a title defense against Nick Knight?
Rayne: Me? Oh no, I'd have hit that bastard with my car, backed over him, and then parked it on top of him. I'm never letting a guy like that even make it to the ring.
{ The referee for this contest, Blue Shoes, calls for the opening bell to sound. }
Ding!
{ Unsurprisingly, the two hardcore icons start off in wild brawling fashion! They throw their fists and feet at each other, momentum shifting back and forth, as they battle around the ring.
