WHERE: Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
THEME SONG: "ENEMY" by Imagine Dragons ft. J.I.D.
OPENING
A live feed of fans entering the 2300 Arena in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, can be seen as the sounds of “Enemy” by Imagine Dragons featuring J.I.D. begins to play gently at first. The sound of the fans chatter and excitement can be heard for several moments, before the first verse swings around.
I wake up to the sounds of the silence that allows
For my mind to run around with my ear up to the ground
I'm searching to behold the stories that are told
When my back is to the world that was smiling when I turned
Tell you you're the greatest
But once you turn they hate us
Our opening match participants, XERTOS and Christopher Graves can be seen standing in front of the Rocky Balboa statue. Both men stand nearly nose to nose, fists raised towards one another, yet neither one makes a move. They shift slightly, the second verse swinging around as a graphic appears showcasing their upcoming match.
Oh, the misery
Everybody wants to be my enemy
Spare the sympathy
Everybody wants to be my enemy
(Look out for yourself)
My enemy (look, look, look, look)
(Look out for yourself)
But I'm ready
The view changes and spins out in a blur, when it returns to normal, Joseph Blaze is kneeling in prayer in front of the Rocky Balboa statue. Gin Kuromiya does some weird anime pose a few feet behind his opponent. A graphic comes up to showcase their upcoming match as the next verse rolls around.
Your words up on the wall as you're praying for my fall
And the laughter in the halls and the names that I've been called
I stack it in my mind and I'm waiting for the time
When I show you what it's like to be words spit in a mic
Tell you you're the greatest
But once you turn they hate us
(Huh)
The next scene comes up, a drunken clown coming into view as he stumbles onto the scene. He’s got a beer bottle in his hand and too large shoes on his feet, while his opposition seems a bit agitated. Both Glum and Jupiter try to stand with their fists raised, but Glum struggles in his drunken state. Instead, he tumbles onto his backside and a graphic shows their upcoming match tonight.
Uh, look
Okay, I'm hoping that somebody pray for me
I'm praying that somebody hope for me
I'm staying where nobody 'posed to be
P-P-Posted, being a wreck of emotions
Ready to go whenever, just let me know
A large bald man seated on a motorcycle comes into view next, while a man dressed in a three piece suit accompanied by a beautiful woman walks onto the scene next. As Meatball lets out smoke from his exhaustion in the direction of the pair, the pair begin to couch and choke on the fumes as they quickly scurry away from the black smoke. A graphic shows the upcoming match against Meatball and M.A.N.
The road is long, so put the pedal into the floor
The enemy on my trail, my energy unavailable
I'ma tell 'em hasta luego
I know they wanna plot on my trot to the top
I've been outta shape, thinkin' out the box, I'm an astronaut
I blasted off the planet rock to cause catastrophe
And it matters more because I had it not
A beautiful blonde accompanied by a smaller brunette comes into the scene next, hair flipping over one shoulder as a muscular man stands stonefaced slightly behind her. Chloe XO walks directly in front of the man, purposely flipping her hair until it smacks him in the face. A scowl appears on Virgil’s face, though he remains collected as Chloe merely smirks. A graphic appears showcasing their match tonight.
Had I thought about wreaking havoc on an opposition
Kinda shocking they wanted static with precision, I'm automatic
Quarterback, I ain't talkin' sacking
Pack it, pack it up, I don't panic
Batter, batter up, who the baddest?
It don't matter 'cause we at ya throat
Finally, two prestigious men slowly step onto the scene. One dressed in a three piece suit, cufflinks and entourage in tow. The other dressed in a two piece suit, sans dress shirt, as he is flanked by members of The Pride. Both men walk forward until they are chest to chest, practically nose to nose. They stare one another down, barking out words full of malice before a graphic appears showcasing SCAR versus R.C. Sterling.
Everybody wants to be my enemy
Spare the sympathy
Everybody wants to be
My enemy
Oh, the misery
Everybody wants to be my enemy
Spare the sympathy
Everybody wants to be my enemy
As we head back to the arena, the camera pans over the electric crowd that cheers wildly. It’s a sold out show and they’re all packed in and ready to go as the music slowly fades out.
Pray it away, I swear
I'll never be a saint, no way
My enemy
Pray it away, I swear
I'll never be a saint
OPENING SEGMENT
With the excited buzzing of the fans around them, the cameras finally pan over towards the commentary team who are settling in. Brother and sister seated side by side as they carefully place their headsets on with matching grins.
SAMAR SINGH: Wow, just listen to that crowd go wild! Ladies, gents, and nonbinary friends… Welcome to the first edition of Project: Underground! Boy, do we have quite the show in store for you here tonight. Introductions need to be made first. I’m Samar Singh, and this lovely lady to the right of me is my baby sister…
AARYA SINGH: Sammy… Shut up. You’ll embarrass me. Anyway, I’m Aarya. Just like he said, I am indeed the baby sister. But, make no mistake about it, I don’t take crap from anyone. Speaking of which, we’ve got a special guest heading to the ring right now!
The sounds of “Savage” by Aespa begins to blare through the arena and the crowd comes unglued. Savannah Sunshine steps from behind the curtain after a few moments, dressed in a dark purple dress that stops just past her thighs, she smiles brightly as she soaks in the cheers for a few moments. Nodding along to the beat of the music, she begins to make her way towards the ring. High fiving fans along the way until she’s climbing the steel steps. She makes quick work, even in her Michael Kohrs pumps she wears.
With the ring ropes held open by Antonio Cruz, Savannah smiles softly as she steps over them with ease, before thanking him once she’s back to a proper stance. A microphone is handed to her a moment later and she lets the crowd get out all of their loud energy before speaking with bright energy.
SAVANNAH SUNSHINE: Wow, you guys sure know how to bring the fire! Welcome, welcome, welcome to Project: Underground! Here is where we will shape a new group of faces looking to make their names in the world of professional wrestling. Here is where the ranks of Project: Honor will continue to grow and soar once these cubs are raised into big strong lions!
Savannah gulps, laughing nervously as she cants her head slightly.
SAVANNAH SUNSHINE: Erm, no pun intended… Anyway, we are all so thrilled that you all were able to make it out tonight. We have a packed show top to bottom and we cannot thank you enough for joining us here tonight. I know I’ve already spent too much time talking and you guys are ready to get to the action. But, bare with me for just a bit longer!
SAVANNAH SUNSHINE: While you see me here before you tonight and it is in everyone’s minds that I am the general manager… You are technically incorrect!
The crowd gasps, everyone watching in confusion as Savannah smiles softly.
SAVANNAH SUNSHINE: Now, now. Don’t worry your pretty little heads. That doesn’t mean that I won’t still be around here making sure all these rascals are taken care of. We are implementing a fine group of trainers into things, including myself. At the end of the week, each trainer will get their choosing of who they wish to pick as their trainee. Each trainer will get ONE trainee of their choosing. This includes anyone who picks up a tag team.
SAVANNAH SUNSHINE: These trainers will be faces you might recognize or faces you may need to re-familiarize yourselves with. Faces like, my beloved, Jason Long, from Fallout. Emmanuelle from Proving Ground. Maddox Ayres. One of my good friends, TJ Thompson from Proving Ground. Another one of my good friends, Michael Bishop from Fallout. Graham Baker from Fallout. The list goes on! The full list will be provided in the coming days to allow everyone a chance at picking who they wish to choose. But, that’s not all!
Savannah walks over to where Antonio Cruz holds a sheathed item beneath a velvet purple sheet. Smiling softly, she swiftly removes the sheet to reveal what is beneath. A golden championship showcasing seven special medallions was revealed as Savannah carefully lifted it up into her hands. Picking it up above her head to show off to the crowd, they begin to cheer once more before Savannah hands it back to Antonio, who holds it for her.
SAVANNAH SUNSHINE: Man, that thing sure is heavy. Anyway, as you can see, there are seven medallions in total within this championship. Each medallion will be up for grabs at upcoming shows and pay-per-view shows. Over the next few weeks, members of the roster will be competing for a chance at a piece of one of these medallions. The goal in the end is for one of them to collect all seven in order to cash in for one very special prize.
Savannah grows quiet, the crowd quieting down as a low drum roll can be heard to draw out the suspense.
SAVANNAH SUNSHINE: Well, these medallions are just there to show you what it would look like once completed. But, they won’t be staying in there. It is up to the members of this roster to compete for pieces. Along the way, whoever collects all seven or the most medallions? Well, they can cash in for a shot at whichever main roster brand they wish to compete on. But, more details on that will follow later. For now, it should be noted that next week? Competition for these medallions begins!
The crowd goes wild as Savannah grows quiet for a few moments, everyone is full of excitement and the titantron heads backstage where several roster members are watching with wide eyes and a stomach full of hunger.
SAVANNAH SUNSHINE: Now, you’ve all had enough of my blabbering. What do you say we get right into it?!
The crowd roars in agreement and Savannah laughs softly as she nods her head.
SAVANNAH SUNSHINE: Alright, on with the show! Have a good night everybody!
Savannah steps out of the ring with Antonio’s help, smiling brightly as the fans say their goodbyes and she slaps some hands on her way to the backstage area. Her music slowly fading out as we prepare to head into our first match of the night.
XERTOS VS CHRISTOPHER GRAVES
SINGLES MATCH
Once both men have entered the ring, the match is off to a fiery start. XERTOS looks to capitalize as he is a bit bigger than Christopher. XERTOS yanks Christopher into a Side Headlock, forcing him down to the canvas as he bends slightly at the knees. But, Christopher sweeps his legs out from beheath him at the knee. Both of his hands cupping together to swing down on the back of one of the taller male’s knees.
XERTOS drops to one knee, releasing his grip on Christopher who kips up to his feet. The fans are going wild as Christopher looks to capitalize on this moment, a swift knee strike to the face makes XERTOS even more taken aback, but it’s not enough to knock him down fully. Christopher carefully lifts up the heavy XERTOS onto both shoulders before dropping him down with a wicked Powerbomb!
ANTONIO CRUZ: ONE… TWO…
XERTOS managed to kick out at a mere two count and the show goes on. It’s a mostly back and forth battle for a good portion of the match. But, XERTOS catches a rebounding Christopher a few minutes later. XERTOS drops Christopher with Satan’s Sting. Backbreaker STO into a Reverse STO as Christopher is laid out. But, before Antonio’s hand could even touch the canvas, Christopher kicked out with vigor. Much to the chagrin of XERTOS. XERTOS was furious, threatening to beat up Antiono Cruz, who reminded the man that he should focus on the match and that inevitably he made the calls around this match.
But, as soon as XERTOS whips around, he’s met with a wicked Spear from Christopher. Christopher pops back up with a roar, ripping his elbow pad off as he tosses it out into the crowd. He rebounds from one side of the ring and then the other before slowing down once he’s close to XERTOS. He drives his elbow with a wicked Elbow Drop right to the chest of XERTOS. But, Christopher is back to his feet a moment later. Jumping up high for added leverage, before dropping his leg in a Jumping High Legdrop across the throat of XERTOS.
ANTONIO CRUZ: ONE… TWO… TH…
No! XERTOS kicks out just before three much to everyone’s disbelief. But, Christopher doesn’t slow down by any means. He’s right back on the attack as he delivers wicked forearms to the face and chest of XERTOS. Once both men are up far enough, Christopher captures both of XERTOS’ arms tightly and traps his head between his thighs before leaping off of the canvas and dropping him with a Facebuster. GOAT connects!
ANTONIO CRUZ: ONE… TWO… THREE!!!
The bell rings and Christopher celebrates his win as an embarrassed XERTOS leaves the arena. Seemingly never to be seen again after such an embarrassing time for himself.
VERA KNIGHT: Here is your winner via pinfall… CHRIIIIIISSSSSTTTTOOOPPPHHHEEERRR GGGRRRAAAVVVEEESSS!!!
The fans cheer for the man who celebrates his win, high fiving him as he heads to the backstage area.
MATCH TWO
JOSEPH BLAZE VERSUS GIN KUROMIYA
SINGLES MATCH
Both competitors are already in the ring and Joseph seems to be ready for a real fight. There’s an unnerving grin on his lips, as he advances towards Gin, hand extended as if looking for a handshake. Gin appears to be skeptical, but he instead clasps his hand with the larger males. But, Joseph squeezes Gin’s hand in a threatening manner. Making it harder for Gin to get away, Antonio Cruz threatens to begin the count. But, Gin begins firing away with left and right alternating kicks to the legs to the larger male. It’s enough to drop Joseph to one knee, giving Gin enough leverage to use his knee as a step-up. Gin uses his own momentum, nailing a wicked Step-Up Enzuigiri to the temple of Joseph. Joseph rolls out of the ring a moment or two later, trying to catch his breath as he leans against one of the ringside barricades. Gin stands inside of the ring, a silly anime pose as he sticks his tongue out at his adversary.
Gin sizes up Joseph on the outside, looking to nail him with a Suicide Dive. Gin comes flying over the ropes, but Joseph captures him in a tight Bearhug-like grip. Gin struggles, but Joseph drops Gin with a wicked Spinebuster right onto the hardest part of the ring apron. Gin drops down onto the floor on the outside, cringing in pain as he tries to crawl away. But, Joseph stalks his prey like an animal waiting to get a bite. Joseph yanks Gin up by his hair, Antonio Cruz giving him a warning as he is now at the count of five. Joseph pushes Gin up against the ring apron back first and begins to fire away with Machine Gun Chops to the chest of Gin. Gin’s chest might be caved in here!
ANTONIO CRUZ: SIX… SEVEN… COME ON, GET BACK IN THE RING!
Joseph wastes little time, not wanting to get a countout victory. Its been a good back and forth a majority of the match for both men. But, Joseph manages to get the upperhand after some brutal combat from both sides. Joseph lifts Gin up from the pinned position they were once in, dragging his seemingly out of it body from the center of the ring. When he feels like he’s close enough, he tosses Gin with a wicked Deadlift German Suplex right into the turnbuckle behind them! But, he doesn’t stop there, he sizes Gin up against the turnbuckle teeth first, both arms yanked behind him roughly, before he pulls back and slams his boot down to connect with a wicked Curb Stomp! The Reckoning connects and Joseph drags Gin’s corpse into the center of the ring.
ANTONIO CRUZ: ONE… TWO… THR--
The crowd collectively gasps as Gin seemingly has light left in him. He tosses his shoulder up, forces space between him and Joseph with a shove full of all the strength he can muster. He shuffles backwards, until he can safely be seated in one of the corners. When Joseph comes close enough, he reels him in and trips him up until he connects face first with the turnbuckle. Joseph stumbles a few feet forward, allowing Gin the chance to climb up the turnbuckle until he’s directly at the top. When Joseph turns around, Gin dives down and nails him with a wicked Diving Single-Leg Facebreaker. Stone Ocean connects! But, Gin knows it’s not enough to capitalize on just yet!
Gin quickly tangles up the legs of Joseph around him, almost in a figure-four position, before bending backwards into a bridging pin with Joseph’s legs properly tangled up. Gin pulls back hard enough, hoping that this will seal the deal for him.
ANTONIO CRUZ: ONE… TWO… THREE!
VERA KNIGHT: Here is your winner via pinfall... GGGIIINNN KKKUUURRROOOMMMIIIYYYAAA!
Gin quickly escapes the ring, holding onto his midsection and then his head as he stumbles up the ramp slightly. The crowd go wild as Joseph’s eyes go wide with what could only be described as pure anger. He wheels around, pokes a finger into the chest of Antonio who reminds him that he was only doing his job. With Gin heading backstage, Joseph seems to calm down a bit and he nods respectfully. Without another word, Joseph heads backstage with a bit of frustration.
SEGMENT TWO
SUNSHINE MEETS SCAR
Backstage, one sunshine-y Fallout roster member sips on a Strawberry flavored Ramune drink. The little marble in the neck of the bottle rattles around with each sip, but she finds much entertainment in it post-watching of the previous two matches. She hums lowly as she sips on her drink… until a large and looming shadow is cast over her. She takes a step backwards… and then another, until she’s bumping chest first into someone.
It’s a firm chest, a steady chest, a manly chest. Stop it, Sav. Get a grip, you heathen. She composes herself, has a good idea of who it is as she takes a step forward a moment later. She places the cap back upon her ramune, clears her throat. She has to crane her neck in order to look up at him, but there he is in all his glory.
SAVANNAH SUNSHINE: O-oh, you ARE really tall! Wow, I mean- I mean most people are taller than me but. But, this is just… so different!
The man seems unphased, sighing in a mere bored manner before he nods his head a bit. His gaze drifts from staring blankly away from the smaller female, until he acknowledges her finally.
SCAR: I just wanted to let you know that you did a good job opening up my show tonight. I also wanted to let you know that you’re looking at the next champion around this place. So, thank you.
There’s a primal grin on his lips, one that warns her to tread lightly. Yet, one that is beautiful all at once. She clears her throat, taking a tentative step backwards as she smooths her hands over her dress.
SAVANNAH SUNSHINE: Those are- That’s a lot of big words and big talk and stuff. Um, I think that opportunities like that should be earned instead of y’know… just talking about it and stuff.
A curl is tucked behind her ear as Scar takes a step towards her, except it’s not her own doing. It’s a meticulous thing and it makes her skin crawl slightly. The hair at the back of her neck is on end as Scar is dangerously close.
SCAR: Don’t worry, I’ll show everybody what I’m capable of later tonight. Then, you’ll be singing a whole ‘nother tune, babygirl.
Savannah grimaces, eyes rolling slightly as she clicks her tongue as Scar turns on his heel to walk away. He stops halfway, throwing a half glance towards her over one of his shoulders.
SCAR: It was very nice to have this conversation with you.
MATCH THREE
JUPITER VERSUS GLUM
SINGLES ACTION
It’s fast paced action, yet all too quick for both men perhaps. Even in his drunken state, Glum manages to get in on the action. He avoids a strike from Jupiter, instead sending him into the nearest turnbuckle with a Drop Toe Hold. Jupiter is none too pleased at the action as he whips around, but Glum doesn’t appear to show any signs of fear. Instead, Glum throws three jabs at Jupiter before nailing him with an Enzuigiri. Clown Shuffle connects and Jupiter stumbles around a bit. But, when Glum comes charging towards him, Jupiter catches him and wraps him up in a Bearhug.
Glum lets out laughter with each squeeze, even if anyone else would probably be feeling the pain. Jupiter squeezes, constrincting his arms around the opposing male, but Glum throws elbows to the top of his head, forcing him to break the hold. As Glum is dropped onto the canvas, Jupiter takes a moment to assess the possible damage. Though, there is none aside from the pain left in the wake of the elbow strikes. Glum merely laughs loudly from his spot on the canvas as Jupiter appears to be growing more and more frustrated.
Jupiter yanks Glum up, a tight hold on him, until he picks him up to drop him for a Running Powerslam. Glum crashes to the canvas, this time sans laughter, as Jupiter looks to capitalize. Jupiter runs forward the rest of the way, jumping up before dropping one of his large legs across the throat of Glum. Jupiter’s Red Spot, Running Leg Drop, connects to the throat of Glum as referee Carter Isley drops down for the count.
CARTER ISLEY: ONE… TWO…
Glum manages to shove Jupiter away from him, using all of his strength as he slowly rolls back to his feet. Jupiter glares daggers at the clown adversary, who looks more than ready to continue on. Both men meet in the middle and exchange several blows. But, Glum manages to get the upperhand. He winds his right fist up, curled up tight, before punching Jupiter in the chest as hard as he can. Tell Tale Heart Punch connects and Jupiter is left coughing and sputtering. To which Glum takes full advantage of as Jupiter stumbles around clumsily.
Glum waits for the perfect moment, watches his opponent very carefully and meticulously. Suddenly, Glum collects Jupiter properly and drops him with a Cradle DDT! Rockabye Baby rocks Jupiter who is laid out in the center of the ring. Glum knows it’s not enough, knows he needs to put an end to this. As Jupiter starts to get onto all fours, Glum has enough distance and has it scouted. He nods his head excitedly, before taking off until he jumps up and drives a single boot into the back of Jupiter’s head with power. Glum quickly drops down, hooking one of Jupiter’s large legs for the pin.
CARTER ISLEY: ONE… TWO… THREE!
VERA KNIGHT: Here is your winner via pinfall… GGGLLLUUUMMM!
The bell rings and Glum releases the leg of Jupiter. Glum exits the ring, happy with his own performance as he receives a mixed reaction from the crowd. He gives a bow, with added flourish, before heading backstage.
MATCH FOUR
MEATBALL VERSUS M.A.N.
SINGLES ACTION
For both men, they’re looking to take Project: Underground by storm. But, only one of them can come out victorious at the end of this one. It’s a mostly even match up, between two men who would rather be anywhere else than here. Yet, they take their time and try their best to one up the other. When M.A.N. goes to try to lift Meatball up, it’s all for naught as he struggles. Meatball doesn’t let it slow him down though, he takes full advantage of the moment. Meatball delivers heavy hammer blows to the stomach and ribs of M.A.N. who struggles to properly stay on his toes. Though, Meatball doesn’t allow him room to breathe. Looking to end things here and now as he nails M.A.N. with a wicked Jackhammer. Bad Driver connects and Meatball lays flat on M.A.N., looking to pick up the win.
CARTER ISLEY: ONE… TWO… THR--
M.A.N. drives a thumb into one of Meatball’s eyes, causing the larger male to yell loudly and remove himself to the closest turnbuckle. M.A.N. is backto his feet as the fans boo loudly at what he had just done. But, he doesn’t seem to care at all. He runs towards Meatball, slamming a Running Big Boot right to the bridge of Meatball’s nose. It’s enough to draw blood and Meatball doesn’t like seeing red. But, Bull Kick connects for M.A.N. who tries his best to drag Meatball out of the corner. But, Meatball kicks away wildly until M.A.N. releases his hold upon him.
Meatball delivers wicked strikes to M.A.N. directly after he grips him by his neck and slams him into the corner. Strikes are targeted at the ribs and midsection of M.A.N., who does his best to cover up. Meatball delivers kicks immediately after, boots laid to the downed M.A.N. as he looks to finish this. He captures M.A.N., carefully maneuvers them both, before dropping M.A.N. in the center of the ring with a Package Piledriver. Executing The Plan just may signal the end of this match!
CARTER ISLEY: ONE… TWO… THREE!
VERA KNIGHT: Here is your winner via pinfall… MMMEEEAAATTTBBBAAALLL!
The bell rings and Meatball removes himself from the downed M.A.N. As officials try to take a look at his possibly broken nose, Meatball shoves them away, wiping away blood as he heads backstage a moment later with an attitude.
MATCH FIVE
CHLOE XO VERSUS VIRGIL BARRICK
SINGLES ACTION
For Chloe, this is a chance at bloodshed. For Virgil, a chance at making his mark. For both, a chance to prove who they are and what they can do. Chloe is the one to make quick work of Virgil here tonight. After Virgil had nailed Chloe with a wicked Vita et Mors, it had all taken a turn from there. The taunt into a Knockout Punch had rocked Chloe into a near two fall count. But, it of course, was not enough to keep her down for long until she was kicking about.
Chloe manages to make a comeback, much to the chagrin of the fans around her. Though, some even cheer for her as does Danielle, who is watching from ringside. Chloe nails Virgil with a Jumping Ripcord Knee right to the jaw that sends him rocking. It’s not enough, she knows she has to hit him with more. So, she doubles up her moves. Leaping Flatliner lays Virgil out in the center of the ring, but Chloe isn’t yet satisfied.
Chloe whips Virgil up, yanks him to his feet before properly putting him into position. Carefully and meticulously, she nails him with a Package Fallaway Powerbomb! Clo and Behold connects as Chloe lazily lays herself across Virgil for the pin.
CARTER ISLEY: ONE… TWO… THREE!
The bell rings and Chloe gets to her feet as Danielle enters the ring a moment later. She raises her best friends hand into the air victoriously, and they both celebrate her win, before exiting the ring.
SEGMENT THREE
VIGNETTE
As we return from our final commercial break, a vignette plays on the screen. A few brief images flash past in slow motion, fading out with a black screen. The images include some blood drops, bloodied weapons, and people laid out in the center of a wrestling ring. Loud and evil cackling can be heard in the background before a silhouette of what appears to be three women is seen. The words COMING SOON are seen in the final shot as nothing but their lips, chests, and legs can be seen.
MAIN EVENT
SCAR VERSUS R.C. STERLING
SINGLES ACTION
In our main event, it’s legacy versus legacy. Two wrestling royalties come head to head in a battle that had been highly anticipated. Both men have the same goal in mind: make it to the top of the food chain. It’s an all out war between these two as soon as that bell rings. A slow start with lots of chain wrestling, but something to test the waters for the two of them. They both want this to be good, they both want this to be something that everyone can enjoy. Even if it meant pulling out all of the stops in order to achieve that goal.
Scar avoids a Running Yakuza Kick, something that allows R.C. to get tangled up in one of the turnbuckles. Scar makes this difficult for his opposition, forces him to become even further tangled within the ropes as he tangles his limbs up in them. With R.C. upside down, Scar makes some space before charging forward to connect a Bicycle Knee Strike! I Want The Throne causes R.C. to become disoriented as he slides off of the top turnbuckle from his tangled mess and Scar drags him towards the center of the ring. He goes for a pin, hooking one leg as the referee counts.
ANTONIO CRUZ: ONE… T--
R.C. kicks out with vigor, not allowing himself to go out this way. Scar nods, he respects it, but he knows this isn’t how things should continue to stay. As both men get to their feet, it’s R.C. who capitalizes this time. Shaking the cobwebs, he charges forward, driving a knee right into the side of Scar’s temple and the opposing male drops to the mat a moment or two afterwards. Diana’s Fate connects, but R.C. doesn’t stop there. As Scar begins to sit up, R.C. connects a Shining Wizard right to the back of Scar’s head. To Oblivion! R.C. quickly drops down with desperation into the pin.
ANTONIO CRUZ: ONE… TWO… THR--
No! It’s not enough! Scar still has fight left in him as he shoves R.C. away with vigor. Both men slowly begin exchanging blows, slowly getting to their feet, both making it to their feet as they continue to exchange blows. Scar gets the upperhand, drives a knee into the sternum as R.C. doubles over. Scar jumps up, spinning with momentum, as R.C. sits up proper. Knee collides in a nasty way to the temple of R.C. who seems about out of it. Death Regiment connects and Scar is practically foaming at the mouth with what awaits R.C. But, no! No, no! R.C. showing signs of life as he tries to shake the cobwebs.
R.C. lifts Scar up and drops him with a Tombstone Lungblower. Sterling Supremacy connects as R.C. quickly gets back to his feet. R.C. sets Scar up properly, before dropping him with the Sovereign Driver! Michinoku Driver II-B connects and R.C. drops in exhaustion not even bothering to hold the leg this time.
ANTONIO CRUZ: ONE… TWO… THREE!
VERA KNIGHT: Here is your winner via pinfall... R.C. SSSTTTEEERRRLLLIIINNNGGG!
There’s mixed reactions from the crowd, though most of them cheer as Scar and R.C. lay in the ring in exhaustion. Both having given it their all in the match up tonight. But, R.C. was the one who had proven himself worthy in the end.
CLOSING SEGMENT
TICK, TOCK
The sound of a ticking clock can be heard, at least, that’s what we all hope it is. Several people sit in a room backstage around a large table, though none of their faces can be seen. Until Savannah Sunshine’s face comes into view finally, she wears a bright smile as she looks around at faces that are familiar to her from around the many brands.
SAVANNAH SUNSHINE: Well, looks like we’ve all got our work cut out for us, don’t we? Let’s see how this is going to turn out.
With those words said, murmuring fills the air as they all fall into discussion… before the final scene shown is the door closing to the room and the show coming to a close.
