A small white box appears up in the top left corner, showing the television rating as ‘TV-MA’ with the letters ‘LSV’ underneath it.
The sounds of an alarm going off from the darkness echo, before ‘The Final Countdown’ (Metal Cover) by Leo Moracchioli begins to play over the black screen.
An image of the words ‘Elite 7’ start in the middle of the screen, like a dot, before flying forward to take up the entire screen.
An image of the words ‘Medal of Honor' starts in the middle of the screen, like a dot, before flying forward to take up the entire screen.
An image of the Warrior Rising Championship, side by side with the Ascension Championship, starts in the middle of the screen, like a dot, before flying forward to take up the entire screen.
An image of the X-Factor Championship, side by side with the Noble Championship, starts in the middle of the screen, like a dot, before flying forward to take up the entire screen.
An image of the Grand Championship, side by side with the Prime Championship, starts in the middle of the screen, like a dot, before flying forward to take up the entire screen.
An image of the Tag Team Championship Titles start in the middle of the screen, like a dot, before flying forward to take up the entire screen.
Then finally the Legacy Championship Title slowly fades into view, directly in the middle of the screen. It quickly cuts to black.
Finally the words ‘THE EDGE’ appear on the screen, out of the darkness.
We’re leaving together,
But still it’s farewell.
Our television screens begin to transmit recorded action, starting with Zack Tyler tapping out to Kasey Winterborn’s “Wicked Little Machine’.he Iniquities of the Selfish’.
And maybe we’ll come back
To earth, who can tell?
Switch to the moment that
I guess there is no one to blame.
We’re leaving ground. (Leaving ground)
Fade to a shot of James Raven out of nowhere with ‘The Flight of the Raven’ on Yung Sauce, through a barbed wire table.
Will things ever be the same again?
Switch to the film of Mark Hunter tossing Indy Darling the X-Division Championship, then falling to the mat to fake out the referee.
Flash to see Drago Santiago slam Contessa Floran with the ‘White Wedding’ as the ring burns around them.
Finally a video of Elena DeDraca planting Dickie Watson with her version of the ‘Flight of the Raven’.
It’s the final countdown!
The Final Countdown!
The video continues, showing Elena standing to her feet, covered in blood and broken glass. Slowly we fade to black, before coming to a live feed showing Fallout’s redheaded ring announcer, Clara Olson sitting behind the usual silver desk. Dressed in a green and blue tye-dye t-shirt and jeans, her red hair flows gently to her shoulders. The words ‘THE EDGE’ shine on the monitor behind her as the music slowly fades.
CLARA OLSON: Hello everyone and WELCOME to The Edge. My name is Clara Olson and you got me for one more show, so your normal host can heal up a few injuries he got while cheating his way through an Uno game and suffering the consequences.
A soft smile crosses Clara’s lips.
CLARA OLSON: We are just days removed from Fallout’s first pay-per-view, where we saw all three Fallout titles and both Project: Honor titles put on the line. We saw glass, barbed wire, tables, ladders, chairs, possibly the kitchen sink, a few purge masks...and before all this went down, we even had one hell of a Proving Ground.
The words ‘New Talent’ appear on the screen behind her.
CLARA OLSON: But as usual, let’s welcome the new pretty faces to our world of kittens and rainbows.
The camera zooms in on the monitor behind Clara, where we see a headshot of the new roster member.
We pan out from the monitor showing the single face. Clara gives an odd look at the camera.
CLARA OLSON: So we see a few people get put out of commission at Wired Consequences...and we get this guy? Is he here to play dodgeball? Does he want us to run laps around the track? Will he let us go OUTSIDE FOR GYM CLASS?
The picture of THe Gym Coach fades to ‘The Edge’ logo as Clara takes a deep breath.
CLARA OLSON: Still no tweets as everyone has been quiet lately since the Strader’s took their crying elsewhere,Jason Long is still out there getting twitter banned on the regular, and it seems Shawn Warstein is starting to become the next Lil Petey by thiristing for our own Kasey Winterborn. So let’s just head to commercials and we can come back with our Elite Seven. Sounds good to me.
April 25th, 2021
Adrien Cochrane (C) vs. Everyone
Subject to Change (C) vs. Team USA vs. The New Age Killers
Bloodied Fox vs. Rin Kubo
Back from commercial and we see Clara Olson standing in front of a monitor with the words ‘ELITE 7’ on it.
CLARA OLSON: The Elite Seven...a group of individuals who we believe are the CREAM of the crop. A group of individuals, we believe, are the current competitive faces of Project: Honor as a whole. Last show I had some Honorable Mentions...but this week we aren’t even going there. I want to get to the meat and potatoes as FAST as I can.
The image switches to the words ‘Elite 7: Number Seven’.
CLARA OLSON: Our first person lined up for our Elite Seven this week...
Last Match: Defeated Contessa Floran, Julius Fairweather & Contessa Floran (Prime Championship Monster’s Ball Match), Record: 4-2, Movement: Up.
CLARA OLSON: I’m sure a lot of people were betting against him after back-to-back losses for the Saint. But he walked into Wired Consequences and proved all his doubters wrong. And Drago? Still the Prime Champion.
The photo of Drago fades out to the words ‘Elite 7: Number Six’.
CLARA OLSON: Moving one spot up on the list...
Last Match: (w/ Shawn Warstein) Defeated Big Drip Productions (Tag Team Championship Barbed Wire Table Match) Record: 5-0, Movement: 1 Up.
CLARA OLSON: James is a little hard to read sometimes. Yeah, he has a load of talent. Yeah, he is one of the better athletes in Project: Honor. But he rarely ventures out on his own, usually teaming up with his fellow Legacy partner Shawn Warstein. Will we ever see James break off into singles stardom?
James Raven’s photo quickly transitions to the words ‘Elite 7: Number Five’.
CLARA OLSON: And another spot up...
Last Match: Defeated Eli Atlas, Daniel Horror, Crash Rodriguez and Zack Tyler (Ascension Championship TLC Match), Record: 8-2, Movement: 1 Up.
CLARA OLSON: Kasey has built herself up since coming back from an injury that put her out of action for a while. And what does she get for her troubles? A shiny title! Stepping out of Wired Consequences as the Ascension Champion, moves Kasey up the list. If it wasn’t for people above her winning too, she might have gone further up. But something tells me she won’t be settling for just fifth.
The words ‘Elite 7: Number Four’ replace the picture of Kasey.
CLARA OLSON: Also continuing up the list...
Last Match: Defeated Indy Darling, Record 4-3, Movement: 1 Up.
CLARA OLSON: Mark Hunter played his part this past Proving Ground, pulling a little bit of razzle dazzle on the referee and managing to pull the win via DQ. While it wasn’t the best win of his career, a win is a win. Can’t fault him for beating the X Division Champion by any means possible.
Fade out to the words ‘Elite 7: Number Three’.
CLARA OLSON: To the top three. Continuing his stay at number three...
Last Match: Defeated Betsy Granger, Record 7-1, Movement -.
CLARA OLSON: Show after show, “The Australian Wolf” proves that he is not someone you want to deal with. I think he has EARNED the right to try again, for the Legacy Championship. Aside from the little Crowning mishap, the man is seven-and-oh...and deserves a shot at redemption. But this brings up two big questions. Will Project: Honor management grow the balls to give Reynolds a shot at the title? And if given that shot, can Aiden capitalize on it?
The picture of Aiden is quickly replaced by the words ‘Elite 7: Number Two’.
CLARA OLSON: Now surprise here.
Last Match: (w/ James Raven) Defeated Big Drip Productions (Tag Team Championship Barbed Wire Table Match), Record 9-1-1, Movement: -.
CLARA OLSON: My apologies Tyrant Warstein. I wanted to put eighteen-thousand six-hundred and sixty-seven wins, but the suits on this show wouldn’t let me. They threw a fit when I added what I did the past couple shows. But this man also deserves a shot at the Legacy Championship. Can you imagine an DeDraca versus Warstein versus Reynolds triple threat Legacy Championship match? I’m getting goose-pimples just thinking about it.
Shawn’s face fades to the words ‘Elite 7: Number One’. The letters (and number) are highlighted in gold and have added depth to them, to make them look as if they are popping off the screen.
CLARA OLSON: And then there was one...
Last Match: Defeated Dickie Watson (Legacy Championship Glass House Match), Record 7-0, Movement -.
CLARA OLSON: Elena exercised some demons at Wired Consequences. She defeated Dickie Watson and PROVED that she belongs at the time of Project: Honor. While some of us knew it all along, it was nice to see all those who were rooting against her have it shoved in their face.
Clara smiles as the monitor shows the entire Elite 7 list.
The screen hangs on the shot of the Elite 7 one more time before going back to ‘The Edge’ logo, with Clara standing next to it.
CLARA OLSON: There is our Elite Seven for this show. Let’s earn some moolah to pay my paycheck and we will be back with some predictions.
We come back from the NLW Ascendancy commercial and we see Clara Olson sitting by herself at the prediction table.
CLARA OLSON: Welcome back, folks. I’m ready for some more predictions. My first time, I went fourteen-and-oh. While my second shot at it gave me some losses, I still can’t complain. I finished four-and-three on Proving Ground, then backed that up by going six-and-three at Wired Consequences. That put me at ten-and-six for the week and twenty-four and six overall. Not bad. After next week’s shows, I might surpass Alara for second place in the most correct predictions.
An image of James Edgebrook appears on the monitor behind her. A few stats appear below his image: “Overall: 44-39”
An image of Alara Adams appears on the monitor, next to James’ picture. Stats appear under her image as well: “Overall: 28-19”
An image of Clara Olson appears on the monitor, next to Alara’’s picture. Stats appear under his image as well: “Last Show: 24-6, Overall: 10-6”
An image of Arik Holt appears on the monitor, next to Alara’s picture. Stats appear under his image as well: “Overall: 10-4”
An image of Lil Petey appears on the monitor, next to Arik’s picture. Stats appear under his image as well: “Overall: 5-1”
All of the images fade out and are replaced by the words ”Fallout IV: Aftermath”.
CLARA OLSON: New folks versus losing folks. At Wired Consequences, Logan and Kevin both lost to Pixie. Kevin tried to make a showing, while Logan just felt like he was off somewhere else. I don’t think that will change. Havoc & The Gym Coach work together for the “W”.
CLARA OLSON: Fire starter, doctor’s pet, number one contender for the Noble Championship. Pyro is a little too…fired up...to lose this match. Was that corny? Maybe that was too corny.
CLARA OLSON: After the show she put on for us at WC, this is no doubt DeMarco’s attempt and giving Elena the week off...without giving her the week off. Easy squash. Elena stomps down on the left handed idiot.
CLARA OLSON: This could be a Main Event almost any other night. But right now? It’s beauty and the beast. Julius is still probably suffering some effects from that Monster’s Ball, while I’m sure the mustard has cured whatever ailed Ms. Knight. Alice Knight surprises some of us and pulls out the victory.
CLARA OLSON: Another mismatch match and one could say that DeMarco was giving Kayla a little bit of a break. Yeah, Pixie is no pushover...but the two ladies could always focus their attention on Crash and give each other a break. OR...they can direct all their hate towards each other. Either way, Kayla has a chip on her shoulder right now with that Noble Title and smacking down Mr. Long. Kayla gets the win, but I think it will be over Crash.
CLARA OLSON: What a ‘Welcome to Fallout’ this is for Savannah. Thrown right into the snake pit. At least she has her man there to help, if things go sideways. But I think Drago will be riding that Prime Championship defense high and manages to have his hand raised in the end.
CLARA OLSON: Everyone was surprised when they saw THIS as the Main Event. But honestly...it has been earned. You have the only three people who have held the Ascension Championship since it was introduced in January. While Eli and Daniel have been battling, what feels like, each show...for this title...the rumor is that the Ascension Championship Division is going to start becoming more uniform. So maybe that means that every week, people like Crash and Zack won’t be getting title shots? I hope not. And this just may be the final shot for Eli and Daniel for at least a show or two. I think they should hang their hat on that as I see my fellow red-haired bombshell walking out of Tunisia with the Championship still around her petite waste.
The picture of the Fallout Main Event fades to the words “Proving Ground XIV: Final Appeal”.
CLARA OLSON: Oasis let me down at the last show, but Euan Hill is hungry enough that I think he could do this on his own. I haven’t seen anything from The Dragon Slayers, but I think Oasis and Hill get the Opening Match victory.
CLARA OLSON: Ozy is a beast and even as talented as Tyler Bradford is...I just don’t think he has what it takes to take down The Butcher of Reine. Ozy storms through Tyler for the win.
CLARA OLSON: It’s weird to see TJ in a tag team that isn’t Big Drip. But he has good company on his side as he goes nose to nose with Cadillac and Pat the Postman. I think Emmanuelle helps TJ in the win column.
CLARA OLSON: Another case of two talented individuals in a match...but Blair is going nose to nose against the Tyrant. Blair couldn’t stop Shawn at The Crowning...and I don’t there is any chance to stop him here either. Shawn moves on to officially become only the third person in Project: Honor history with double-digit wins.
CLARA OLSON: SEX is good...The Commonwealth is better. Dickie gets out some aggression and Aiden continues to dominate.
CLARA OLSON: Mark Hunter continues his tear through Proving Ground, next up Lance Williams. Lance has made a decent showing lately, but where there is Mark Hunter, there is a way for him to cheat himself to victory. Mark finds a way to take down the big boy.
The monitor switches to the Edge logo once more.
CLARA OLSON: I’m within a few right guesses of catching Alara and within striking distance of catching up to Edgebrook. Hopefully he needs a few more shows off to calm down his anger issues and heal those MOTHERFUCKING injuries.
We return back from the Kingdom Pro commercial, to see Clara standing in front of a monitor with The Edge logo on it.
CLARA OLSON: Oh, isn’t that sweet. It seems Amber Payne found a place she can compete and not have to whine and cry about. Anyway, on to the final segment of the show! A time where I get to hand out awards to those who are deserving. Let’s get these Medals to all those who earned them on last week’s Fallout and Proving Ground shows.
The words ‘Best Promo’ appear on screen.
CLARA OLSON: Best Promo. The award is handed to the person or persons, who deliver the best promotional video for their match. We watch video after video after video, digging into each detail and pulling out what we like the best.
A picture of Elena DeDraca appears underneath the words ‘Best Promo’.
CLARA OLSON: Not only did she retain her Legacy Championship, but she took down the biggest talent on the roster to do so. And during her promo for this match, she opened herself up to us...ripped out her heart...and showed it to us on a bitch-black raven-feather colored pattern…with lace and frills etched into it of course.
The screen goes blank for a moment, before showing the words ‘Segment Of The Night’.
CLARA OLSON: The Segment of the Night looks at the break between the action. Who showed up and made us want more. Who grabbed our attention. Between Proving Ground leading up to their own PPV and Fallout hosting Wired Consequences, we had a whole slew of options.
A picture of Dickie Watson holding a cell phone under the words 'Segment Of The Night’
CLARA OLSON: We got to hear the raw emotion from Dickie in this one. The idea that Elena stood in front of him with the Legacy Championship. He got to respond to her, say how he was feeling, put it all on the line so that EVERYTHING was out there before they clashed in that Glass House Match.
The picture of Dickie fades away, replaced by the words ‘Feud Of The Night’.
CLARA OLSON: The Feud of the Night highlights a feud that is building or is starting. Wired Consequences ended a few feuds that were brewing, but it also added fuel to the flames of one.
Pictures of James Edgebrook and Julius Fairweather fade in underneath ‘Feud Of The Night’.
CLARA OLSON: This talk show feud, grew to be vengeful enough for Edgebrook to attack Fairweather on an episode of Fallout. BUT...this led to a Wired Consequences confrontation of...playing...Uno. BUT Fairweather got his revenge but DDTing James through the table. This is not the end of this feud and it is interesting to see them both pegged for a beer drinking contest on Fallout next week.
‘Spot Of The Night’ replaces the picture of Edgebrook and Fairweather.
CLARA OLSON: Bumps, falls, spots...we all love them...we all secretly enjoy watching them. Spot of the Night highlights who grabbed us with that ‘wow’ factor. Who made the fans’ jaw drop in a true moment of ‘Holy Shit!’?
The monitor starts to show footage from the Lance Williams-Ozymandias Proving Ground match.
The Bulldozer gives a few more headbutts for good measure, when suddenly Ozymandias begins to unload his own series of torturous headbutts!
TREY BOOKER: This is sick! They’re like a pair of stag slamming their antlers together!
J.T. PRICE: Concussion city, baby!
With both men dizzy from the impact between their skulls, it is Lance that breaks the stalemate first by lifting a hard knee into Ozy’s midsection. He then whips him into the corner turnbuckles and charges in after him, but when Lance attempts to splash Ozy in the corner, The Butcher sidesteps and The Bulldozer’s sternum connects hard with the top buckle! Ozymandias then forces Lance onto the top turnbuckle with his back facing the ring before climbing onto the second buckle himself. Ozy then wraps his arms around Lance and attempts to throw him off the top rope with a belly to back superplex, but The Bulldozer grabs the top rope with both hands and refuses to budge. Ozymandias pulls at Lance again and again, but Williams continues to grip the top rope, refusing to be thrown to the mat. Then, with a loud snap, the top rope and turnbuckle break away from the ring post, and with nothing holding them back, both men fly out of the corner. The ring shakes violently as they land on the mat, but somehow the structural integrity of the ring remains intact. With Ozymandias’ arms still wrapped around Lance’s midsection, both men’s shoulders are on the mat and the referee drops down to make his count!
ONE!
TWO!
At the last second, Ozymandias rolls one of his shoulders off the mat, leaving only Lance’s down for the referee’s count!
THREE!
HOLLY PEREZ: And the winner of the match by pin fall...OZYMANDIAS!!!
The monitor goes back to saying ‘Spot Of The Night’ and has a picture of Lance and Ozy laying in the middle of the ring, the turnbuckle and top rope broken and laying on the ground next to them..
CLARA OLSON: Fallout’s Wired Consequences had a LOT of spots I could have chosen. But was anyone expecting the turnbuckle to blow up like it did during Proving Ground?
The words and picture on the screen, are replaced by ‘Match Of The Night’
CLARA OLSON: Match of the Night, best match of the back-to-back shows. So much to choose from. But despite some of the animosity on Proving Ground...how can you go against Champion versus Champion?
Under the words ‘Match of The Night’ appear a picture of Elena and Dickie Watson standing across from each other in the Glass House Match.
CLARA OLSON: Biggest title in the land, on the line. Two biggest stars in our halls. Glass everywhere. It was a no brainer.
‘The words ‘Medal Of Honor’ replace the entire Match of the Night image.
CLARA OLSON: And the blue ribbon to be pinned on our , we move on to the Medal of Honor itself. Who stood out from the pack? Who held their head up in a power pose, large enough to push down the haters?
A picture of Elena DeDraca appears on the screen.
CLARA OLSON: How could I pick anyone else? She still is the Legacy Champion. She still is undefeated. She still sits on top of our Elite Seven. Until someone can topple her, I think everyone needs to look at her sitting on her throne and just say…’Damn’...in admiration.
The monitor cuts to ‘The Edge’ logo.
CLARA OLSON: Wired Consequences was MASSIVE and Proving Ground has a lot to live up to at the end of the month. With Public Execution just weeks away...let’s see if Caden and the bunch can step up to match Fallout’s intensity.
‘The Final Countdown’ (Metal Cover) by Leo Moracchioli begins to play softly in the background.
CLARA OLSON: So I will see you all next week on Fallout. I’m Clara Olson and this was The Edge. Goodnight everyone!
Clara waves to the camera as it slowly starts to pan out.
The music fades out as we go to a black screen with a Project: Honor logo on it.
The sounds of an alarm going off from the darkness echo, before ‘The Final Countdown’ (Metal Cover) by Leo Moracchioli begins to play over the black screen.
An image of the words ‘Elite 7’ start in the middle of the screen, like a dot, before flying forward to take up the entire screen.
An image of the words ‘Medal of Honor' starts in the middle of the screen, like a dot, before flying forward to take up the entire screen.

An image of the Tag Team Championship Titles start in the middle of the screen, like a dot, before flying forward to take up the entire screen.
Then finally the Legacy Championship Title slowly fades into view, directly in the middle of the screen. It quickly cuts to black.
Finally the words ‘THE EDGE’ appear on the screen, out of the darkness.
We’re leaving together,
But still it’s farewell.
Our television screens begin to transmit recorded action, starting with Zack Tyler tapping out to Kasey Winterborn’s “Wicked Little Machine’.he Iniquities of the Selfish’.
And maybe we’ll come back
To earth, who can tell?

Fade to a shot of James Raven out of nowhere with ‘The Flight of the Raven’ on Yung Sauce, through a barbed wire table.

Flash to see Drago Santiago slam Contessa Floran with the ‘White Wedding’ as the ring burns around them.
Finally a video of Elena DeDraca planting Dickie Watson with her version of the ‘Flight of the Raven’.

An image of Alara Adams appears on the monitor, next to James’ picture. Stats appear under her image as well: “Overall: 28-19”
An image of Clara Olson appears on the monitor, next to Alara’’s picture. Stats appear under his image as well: “Last Show: 24-6, Overall: 10-6”
An image of Arik Holt appears on the monitor, next to Alara’s picture. Stats appear under his image as well: “Overall: 10-4”
An image of Lil Petey appears on the monitor, next to Arik’s picture. Stats appear under his image as well: “Overall: 5-1”
All of the images fade out and are replaced by the words ”Fallout IV: Aftermath”.
DARK MATCH: Havoc & The Gym Coach vs. Logan Burgess & Kevin Hunter
CLARA OLSON: New folks versus losing folks. At Wired Consequences, Logan and Kevin both lost to Pixie. Kevin tried to make a showing, while Logan just felt like he was off somewhere else. I don’t think that will change. Havoc & The Gym Coach work together for the “W”.
DARK MATCH: Pyro vs. Martha Atlas vs. Kagome Akaibara
CLARA OLSON: Fire starter, doctor’s pet, number one contender for the Noble Championship. Pyro is a little too…fired up...to lose this match. Was that corny? Maybe that was too corny.
CLARA OLSON: After the show she put on for us at WC, this is no doubt DeMarco’s attempt and giving Elena the week off...without giving her the week off. Easy squash. Elena stomps down on the left handed idiot.
CLARA OLSON: This could be a Main Event almost any other night. But right now? It’s beauty and the beast. Julius is still probably suffering some effects from that Monster’s Ball, while I’m sure the mustard has cured whatever ailed Ms. Knight. Alice Knight surprises some of us and pulls out the victory.
CLARA OLSON: Another mismatch match and one could say that DeMarco was giving Kayla a little bit of a break. Yeah, Pixie is no pushover...but the two ladies could always focus their attention on Crash and give each other a break. OR...they can direct all their hate towards each other. Either way, Kayla has a chip on her shoulder right now with that Noble Title and smacking down Mr. Long. Kayla gets the win, but I think it will be over Crash.
CLARA OLSON: What a ‘Welcome to Fallout’ this is for Savannah. Thrown right into the snake pit. At least she has her man there to help, if things go sideways. But I think Drago will be riding that Prime Championship defense high and manages to have his hand raised in the end.
CLARA OLSON: Everyone was surprised when they saw THIS as the Main Event. But honestly...it has been earned. You have the only three people who have held the Ascension Championship since it was introduced in January. While Eli and Daniel have been battling, what feels like, each show...for this title...the rumor is that the Ascension Championship Division is going to start becoming more uniform. So maybe that means that every week, people like Crash and Zack won’t be getting title shots? I hope not. And this just may be the final shot for Eli and Daniel for at least a show or two. I think they should hang their hat on that as I see my fellow red-haired bombshell walking out of Tunisia with the Championship still around her petite waste.
The picture of the Fallout Main Event fades to the words “Proving Ground XIV: Final Appeal”.
CLARA OLSON: Oasis let me down at the last show, but Euan Hill is hungry enough that I think he could do this on his own. I haven’t seen anything from The Dragon Slayers, but I think Oasis and Hill get the Opening Match victory.
CLARA OLSON: Ozy is a beast and even as talented as Tyler Bradford is...I just don’t think he has what it takes to take down The Butcher of Reine. Ozy storms through Tyler for the win.
CLARA OLSON: It’s weird to see TJ in a tag team that isn’t Big Drip. But he has good company on his side as he goes nose to nose with Cadillac and Pat the Postman. I think Emmanuelle helps TJ in the win column.
CLARA OLSON: Another case of two talented individuals in a match...but Blair is going nose to nose against the Tyrant. Blair couldn’t stop Shawn at The Crowning...and I don’t there is any chance to stop him here either. Shawn moves on to officially become only the third person in Project: Honor history with double-digit wins.
CLARA OLSON: SEX is good...The Commonwealth is better. Dickie gets out some aggression and Aiden continues to dominate.
CLARA OLSON: Mark Hunter continues his tear through Proving Ground, next up Lance Williams. Lance has made a decent showing lately, but where there is Mark Hunter, there is a way for him to cheat himself to victory. Mark finds a way to take down the big boy.
The monitor switches to the Edge logo once more.
CLARA OLSON: I’m within a few right guesses of catching Alara and within striking distance of catching up to Edgebrook. Hopefully he needs a few more shows off to calm down his anger issues and heal those MOTHERFUCKING injuries.

We return back from the Kingdom Pro commercial, to see Clara standing in front of a monitor with The Edge logo on it.
CLARA OLSON: Oh, isn’t that sweet. It seems Amber Payne found a place she can compete and not have to whine and cry about. Anyway, on to the final segment of the show! A time where I get to hand out awards to those who are deserving. Let’s get these Medals to all those who earned them on last week’s Fallout and Proving Ground shows.
The words ‘Best Promo’ appear on screen.
CLARA OLSON: Best Promo. The award is handed to the person or persons, who deliver the best promotional video for their match. We watch video after video after video, digging into each detail and pulling out what we like the best.
A picture of Elena DeDraca appears underneath the words ‘Best Promo’.
CLARA OLSON: Not only did she retain her Legacy Championship, but she took down the biggest talent on the roster to do so. And during her promo for this match, she opened herself up to us...ripped out her heart...and showed it to us on a bitch-black raven-feather colored pattern…with lace and frills etched into it of course.
The screen goes blank for a moment, before showing the words ‘Segment Of The Night’.
CLARA OLSON: The Segment of the Night looks at the break between the action. Who showed up and made us want more. Who grabbed our attention. Between Proving Ground leading up to their own PPV and Fallout hosting Wired Consequences, we had a whole slew of options.
A picture of Dickie Watson holding a cell phone under the words 'Segment Of The Night’
CLARA OLSON: We got to hear the raw emotion from Dickie in this one. The idea that Elena stood in front of him with the Legacy Championship. He got to respond to her, say how he was feeling, put it all on the line so that EVERYTHING was out there before they clashed in that Glass House Match.
The picture of Dickie fades away, replaced by the words ‘Feud Of The Night’.
CLARA OLSON: The Feud of the Night highlights a feud that is building or is starting. Wired Consequences ended a few feuds that were brewing, but it also added fuel to the flames of one.
Pictures of James Edgebrook and Julius Fairweather fade in underneath ‘Feud Of The Night’.
CLARA OLSON: This talk show feud, grew to be vengeful enough for Edgebrook to attack Fairweather on an episode of Fallout. BUT...this led to a Wired Consequences confrontation of...playing...Uno. BUT Fairweather got his revenge but DDTing James through the table. This is not the end of this feud and it is interesting to see them both pegged for a beer drinking contest on Fallout next week.
‘Spot Of The Night’ replaces the picture of Edgebrook and Fairweather.
CLARA OLSON: Bumps, falls, spots...we all love them...we all secretly enjoy watching them. Spot of the Night highlights who grabbed us with that ‘wow’ factor. Who made the fans’ jaw drop in a true moment of ‘Holy Shit!’?
The monitor starts to show footage from the Lance Williams-Ozymandias Proving Ground match.
The Bulldozer gives a few more headbutts for good measure, when suddenly Ozymandias begins to unload his own series of torturous headbutts!
TREY BOOKER: This is sick! They’re like a pair of stag slamming their antlers together!
J.T. PRICE: Concussion city, baby!
With both men dizzy from the impact between their skulls, it is Lance that breaks the stalemate first by lifting a hard knee into Ozy’s midsection. He then whips him into the corner turnbuckles and charges in after him, but when Lance attempts to splash Ozy in the corner, The Butcher sidesteps and The Bulldozer’s sternum connects hard with the top buckle! Ozymandias then forces Lance onto the top turnbuckle with his back facing the ring before climbing onto the second buckle himself. Ozy then wraps his arms around Lance and attempts to throw him off the top rope with a belly to back superplex, but The Bulldozer grabs the top rope with both hands and refuses to budge. Ozymandias pulls at Lance again and again, but Williams continues to grip the top rope, refusing to be thrown to the mat. Then, with a loud snap, the top rope and turnbuckle break away from the ring post, and with nothing holding them back, both men fly out of the corner. The ring shakes violently as they land on the mat, but somehow the structural integrity of the ring remains intact. With Ozymandias’ arms still wrapped around Lance’s midsection, both men’s shoulders are on the mat and the referee drops down to make his count!
ONE!
TWO!
At the last second, Ozymandias rolls one of his shoulders off the mat, leaving only Lance’s down for the referee’s count!
THREE!
HOLLY PEREZ: And the winner of the match by pin fall...OZYMANDIAS!!!
The monitor goes back to saying ‘Spot Of The Night’ and has a picture of Lance and Ozy laying in the middle of the ring, the turnbuckle and top rope broken and laying on the ground next to them..
CLARA OLSON: Fallout’s Wired Consequences had a LOT of spots I could have chosen. But was anyone expecting the turnbuckle to blow up like it did during Proving Ground?
The words and picture on the screen, are replaced by ‘Match Of The Night’
CLARA OLSON: Match of the Night, best match of the back-to-back shows. So much to choose from. But despite some of the animosity on Proving Ground...how can you go against Champion versus Champion?
Under the words ‘Match of The Night’ appear a picture of Elena and Dickie Watson standing across from each other in the Glass House Match.
CLARA OLSON: Biggest title in the land, on the line. Two biggest stars in our halls. Glass everywhere. It was a no brainer.
‘The words ‘Medal Of Honor’ replace the entire Match of the Night image.
CLARA OLSON: And the blue ribbon to be pinned on our , we move on to the Medal of Honor itself. Who stood out from the pack? Who held their head up in a power pose, large enough to push down the haters?
A picture of Elena DeDraca appears on the screen.
CLARA OLSON: How could I pick anyone else? She still is the Legacy Champion. She still is undefeated. She still sits on top of our Elite Seven. Until someone can topple her, I think everyone needs to look at her sitting on her throne and just say…’Damn’...in admiration.
The monitor cuts to ‘The Edge’ logo.
CLARA OLSON: Wired Consequences was MASSIVE and Proving Ground has a lot to live up to at the end of the month. With Public Execution just weeks away...let’s see if Caden and the bunch can step up to match Fallout’s intensity.
‘The Final Countdown’ (Metal Cover) by Leo Moracchioli begins to play softly in the background.
CLARA OLSON: So I will see you all next week on Fallout. I’m Clara Olson and this was The Edge. Goodnight everyone!
Clara waves to the camera as it slowly starts to pan out.
The music fades out as we go to a black screen with a Project: Honor logo on it.
