Our scene tonight opens with views of the outside of the Anaheim Convention Center and throngs of people waiting to enter the arena for tonight’s Discovery show. The scene then switches to the inside of the arena as the fans are making their way to their seats.
The start of “Shadow Boxing” by Parkway Drive starts playing over the scene and in the arena. Clips of Discovery’s members begin playing over the tron, computer screens and televisions for those tuning in for tonight’s show.
Do you see me?
Do you see what I’ve become?
I’m not the same beast.
I leave a scar on all I touch.
You think you know me now.
Is it better than I know myself?
I know it hurts like Hell.
Admitting just how you’ve misjudged.
Clips of Jasmine Matthews having lifted her title belt up into the air after she won it. The women of The Shieldmaidens coming out on stage. The women of Kopadi raising their belts in the air. Clips of The Ginger Ninja, Molly Hatchet running down to the ring. Morphing into clips of Dona Rotten pinning her opponent to win the Ascendant Title.
All my life I’ve been told the same old
Don’t step out, don’t test the mould.
We know your kind, yeah, we know you.
So much better than you know yourself.
See, the ones that won’t engage me,
Are the same trying to cage me.
But, I can’t sit still and I won’t be tamed.
When the lights go out, better to know your enemy.
‘Cause I’ve spent a lifetime shadowboxing with Death.
And we’ll dance with the Devil till there’s no songs left.
More clips of the women of Discovery play as the music starts to fade.
Amianna: “Welcome to Thursday Night Discovery!”
Lucas: “You’re looking as good tonight, Amianna. As usual.”
Amianna: “Thank you, Lucas. Tonight we’re going to be witnessing a brand new era here at Galactic Wrestling. What with our new General Manager officially presenting herself…”
Lucas: “Whom I hear is five months pregnant. But still hot as fuck.”
Amianna: “Better watch how much you sniff at her heels there, Lucas. I hear her husband used to be an assassin or hitman or something like that. You might not want to get too close.”
Lucas: “Eh, I can still lust her from afar.”
Amianna: “Anyways, tonight is set to be an amazing show. We have the Shieldmaiden’s Wendy Stevens going against The Kingdom’s very own ‘Ice’. Then a three way match between Azurine Vebbins verses Pet verses Luciana…”
Lucas: “Now that’s a woman I would love to get beat by.”
Amianna: “Which one?”
Lucas: “Pet. She’s super fine!”
Amianna can be seen rolling her eyes but then smiles towards the camera once again.
Amianna: “Then we have the Number One Contenders matches of Xena Lingard verses Maja Lindstrom and then the Shieldmaidens own Samantha Hamilton verses The Kingdom’s Lluvia Cane.”
Lucas: “Those women in the Shieldmaidens kind of scare me a little. A bunch of bad-ass biker women who can kick ass, too? I think I’m in love.”
Amianna: “Down boy!”
Amianna laughs nervously.
Lucas: “What? They’re not all taken are they? Surely there’s a single one in the bunch.”
Amianna: “You’re such a pig, Lucas…. Then we see Dona Rotten going against The Kingdom’s ‘Fire’. And then, and this will make your heart skip a beat, Lucas, we have The Shieldmaiden’s team of Alex Carbajal and Jackie Layton meeting up with the current Tag Team champs of Kopadi.”
Lucas: “And tonight’s Main Event is set to be a wild one as we have The Ginger Ninja herself meeting up with Jae Un!”
Amianna: “It’s going to be an exciting night tonight folks…”
And before she can say anything more, the music for “Beautiful Dangerous” by Slash ft. Fergie hits the PA system.
I don't know who you are now
Mystery drenches my brain
I wanna jump deep into your mouth
'Cause something tells me it's gonna rain
I hear the drum rolls thumping
And my heart starts jumping
And that's when I spit on the floor
Now my head's exploding
And your gun is dirty
So I'm guessing I'm on a roll
Well it's a fine time
Looking for a wine time man
And you said "baby you ready to play"
Well come right on this roller coaster
'Cause it ain't over, it ain't over
Amianna: “And here she is, Ladies and Gentlemen, Discovery’s new General Manager, Alice McPhee! And she is absolutely gorgeous!”
Lucas: “Fuck yes she is. I think I may be developing a thing for pregnant chicks.”
Amianna: “And that tall drink of whiskey with her is her husband, Conor. He looks like he should be a wrestler himself.”
Lucas: “You can’t look at him and say you’re not even a little turned on, Ami.”
Amianna: “Some of us like to keep things professional, Lucas. And, if you value your life, you might want to pick up that particular habit when it comes to Mrs. McPhee.”
Lucas: “Bah! I ain’t scared of no muscle head like him.”
Now we're on this planet
I'm in love with all your dangers, dangers
We can live forever
I can be your pagan angel, angel
Beautiful dangerous
Standing in the center of the stage, waiting for the music and cheering to die down, was Alice and Conor McPhee. Alice lifts her arms up and indicates the fans around the arena as they offer a mix of cheers and boos.
Alice: “Welcome To Thursday Night Discovery!!”
Another pop of cheers and boos come from the fans. And Alice smiles up to Conor before returning her attention back to the fans.
Alice: “We have a fantastic show for you tonight! I know that things have been up in the air lately for the Discovery brand. And it is my true hope that I can bring you, the fans, an excellent show every two weeks! Now, I’ve been in talks for the past two days with one Mr. Ricky Stanton over at Stanton Enterprises and I am happy to announce that we will now be aired on Stanton Enterprises Network! It truly IS a new beginning for Discovery!”
The fans pop once again at the mention of Ricky Stanton and the SE Network. And a confident smirk forms on Alice’s face.
Alice: “So, without further ado… Enjoy tonight’s show!”
The chords of “Beautiful Dangerous” begins to play as Alice and Conor make their way off the stage.
The opening music to “I Get Wicked” begins, and we hear the roar of a Harley as Wendy Stevens roars out onto the stage sitting on her bike, wearing a black hoodie and her Shieldmaiden vest. Her manager and girlfriend, Lexa Pelligrini is on the bike with her. With one hand in the air, and hood up, she revs the engine with her other hand as the opening notes of "I Get Wicked" begin to play.
I can be nice
But don’t test me
I can get WICKED!
As pyro goes off, Stevens pulls off the hood and rides down to ringside, a snarl on her face. She rides around the ring slowly, the arm still in the air before parking her bike at the end of the ramp. They step off the bike, Wendy holds the ropes open for Lexa to step in before stepping into the ring herself. She paces around the ring, visibly angry as Lexa hands her a microphone.
“So there’s this other company I work for that… well, I fear I may have taken for granted. Or maybe I… was the one taken for granted. See, I was brought up in the business and told no matter what you do, never disrespect your opponent’s ability. Was told to hype your match by selling your opponent, putting them over so to speak. In that joint, I am oh-for-two. First match, opponent should have tapped out. Stupid zebra decided my shoulders were on the mat and gave the big ugly sonofabitch the win. Last match, I got pinned by a glorified Barbie doll on a rollup.”
Stevens takes off her hoodie and vest and flexes, showing off her build before putting on her vest again.
“THAT is what respect has done for me. Even here in Galactic, I was fed to the bottom-feeders to enhance THEM. People who aren’t even in this damn company anymore, while I still stand in the very ring THEY abandoned. Even bit my tongue while the last boss overlooked me over and over again. Least the new boss has some damn common sense to her.”
She tugs at her vest again.
“Respect starts and stops with everyone that wears this cut. Every Shieldmaiden, Chrome Dragon, and our associates get my respect. Now, tonight, I’ll be facing Little Miss Elsa. Now, it could be argued not so long ago, I was in tight with her and the Collective. And that would be false. Truth? I simply agreed to what Serah wanted because I was trying to understand how she ticked. She was under investigation. Instead, she used me to create her little group, surrounded herself with lackeys, until I realized she saw me as no better than them. I still pray for the day where I grab her by the throat and put her through that stupid fucking door she can’t get open. Instead, now I get the lackeys. And tonight, I will crush Ice and use it to chill my drinks later. And if Fire wants to come around, I’ll snuff that out in a heartbeat.
I will NOT be undervalued. Tonight, we ride.”
She tosses the mic over her shoulder as she and Lexa exit the ring, get back on the bike and ride up the ramp to the back.
Amianna: “And here we go, folks. The first match of the night.”
Lucas: “If we look at tonight’s line-up, you’d think that the new GM is purposely putting The Shieldmaidens against The Kingdom on purpose. Two of the matches tonight is a Shieldmaiden against someone from The Kingdom.”
Amianna: “Maybe she is. Who knows what new and exciting things our new GM has planned. And here comes our beautiful ring announcer, Siona!”
A petite woman with shocking turquoise blue hair enters the ring. Mic in hand.
Siona: “The following match is scheduled for one fall!”
The Crowd: “ONE FALL!”
Siona: “Introducing, first, from New York, New York, “Wicked” Wendy Stevens!”
Wendy Stevens walks out and stands wearing a black hoodie and her Shieldmaiden vest. With one hand in the air, and hood up, she stands stoically as the opening notes of "I Get Wicked" begin to play.
I can be nice
But don’t test me
I can get WICKED!
As pyro goes off, Stevens pulls off the hood and walks down the ramp, a sadistic smile on her face that the camera picks up. She stops midway down the ramp, and looks around at the crowd before running down the ramp into the ring, and diving through the second and bottom ropes, rolling through the dive as she enters the ring, and lands on the opposite second and bottom ropes, her arm up in the air again, her fingers forming a W, and she yells out WICKED! She gets on the ropes of each of the other sides, with the same arm in the air, the same finger formation, before pacing back and force watching the ramp. She removes the vest and hoodie, revealing her now much more muscular frame, pulling on the ropes, as he waits for her opponent
Siona: “And her opponent, from Asheville, North Carolina… Ice!!”
“A Song of Ice and Fire” begins to play as white light fills the arena. Once the drum beat kicks in, out walks Ice with a white jacket and a hood covering her head. As the song picks up, Ice removes the hood and Fire joins her at her side. Ice makes her way down to the ring, very focused on her task. Once she hits the ring, she uses the steps to make her way up into the ring. She then climbs the turnbuckles as she removes her jacket, tossing it down to Fire before jumping off and standing in the ring.
Ice would start early with a sucker feint into a hard kick to Wendy's bad knee. From there we saw her savagely attacking Wendy's reconstructed knee over and over with kicks and attacks, with the biggest moment being a CHOP BLOCK that flat drops Wendy and sends her rolling out of the ring! Instead of crying out in pain, however, Wendy only grew more and more angry and it's when Ice goes for a Suicide Dive that Wendy would suddenly jump up and meet her outside the ring with a dropkick straight to her diving foe's face! Both hit the floor in pain, but Wendy, though limping was able to capitalize and take back every big of advantage Ice took, starting with a RUNNING CURB STOMP!
Wendy would then follow up by going for a suplex to Ice but Ice would come back with an IMPLANT DDT on the floor! It'd take her a moment to recover from the previous curb stomp, but by the time she got back into the ring, Wendy was already on her feet, though stumbling a bit and clutching at her neck. Ice pulled back on the ropes and took flight, going for a Suicide Plancha by Wendy side steps and lets her eat the floor hard! Wendy would then pick Ice up and hit THE WICKED FLATLINER, then roll back into the ring to let the count out roll.
Halfway through the count, Ice would start to rise and Wendy, giving her knee a quick check, bursts across the ring, leaps over the ropes, and hits a Tope Con Hilo, hopping straight to her feet with a bit of a woop! She then gathers Ice up and slings her onto the nearby Announce table, not paying any attention to the referee's count. She climbs up onto the table with Ice, gathering her up and setting up for the PILGRIM/DEFENDER but Ice COUNTERS INTO AN IMPLANT DDT PUTTING BOTH WOMEN THROUGH THE TABLE! Ice would be hurt almost as bad as Wendy in the process and was unable to recover in time to break up the 10 count, resulting in a double count out!
WINNER: DOUBLE COUNT OUT DRAW AT 18 minutes & 37 seconds!
Amianna: “That was an intense first match! One that resulted in a double count-out!”
Lucas: “Remind me not to fuck with either of those women, Ami.”
Amianna: “The one you need to worry about not fucking with is our GM. I’d hate to see Conor beat you to a pulp.”
Lucas scoffs.
Lucas: “Like I said… I’m not scared of him.”
Amianna laughs and shakes her head.
"Skallagrim, Reaver Cleaver" by Fazt hit's the house P/A system as out steps a tall woman with broad shoulders and a muscular physique. No, this isn't Ursula Von Rossbach, but instead a woman who stood three inches taller and sported longer arms and a body that's almost as ripped and chiseled! She wore all black, a sports top, a leather vest with matching tights, padded kick boots, and fingerless gloves. On the back of her vest it read simply "BANE" in a bright blue, rough font and down the legs of her tights it spelled W.O.M.AN in white letters on a thick blue stripe. Upon her shoulder rests not a sledgehammer, but instead a warhammer with a skull etched into a silver plate riveted on one side of it.
Lucas: “H.O.L.Y. Shiiit! It’s Cassidy Bane!!”
It’s easy to tell from Lucas’ excitement that he’s very happy to see Cassidy Bane is back at Discovery.
Amianna: “It seems that Mrs. McPhee has been busy lately. If only she could’ve gotten Serah Karin, now known by her real name, Jasmine Matthews, back.”
Lucas looks to Amianna and smiles wickedly.
Lucas: “Now THAT would be amazing! The entirety of The Kingdom back together? That’s a harem I could get used to being in.”
Amianna: “I’ll say it again.. You’re a pig.”
Lucas: “Thank you.”
Cassidy marches down to ringside, the crowd bobbing their head to her new theme. There's a far more confident swagger about her as she walked in a perfect stride. Upon arriving at ringside, She leaps onto the apron. Pushing down on the top rope, Cassidy slips one leg over the top, followed by the other and marches straight to the center of the ring where she twirls the hammer and places the weapon head down. Leaning on the handle with one hand, legs spread apart, the Breaker of Bodies pulled a microphone from her vest pocket, which apparently signaled for the music to be cut.
Cassidy: "Ladies and Gentlemen of Anaheim, Cali, my name is Cassidy Bane. It's been awhile since you last saw me and I look admittedly different. Gone are the stupid tattoos and light, frail body. Gone is the even stupider moniker. I'd spent my entire life living in the shadow of a man who didn't see his own flesh in blood but the continuation of a legacy that I..... just don't give a fuck about."
She tilts her head slightly, knowing full well the phone call she'd be getting later and honestly? While she isn't looking forward to it, Cassidy knew it had to be done.
Cassidy: "My father's legend ended before I was even born and the moment I showed any kind of aptitude for fighting, he drilled it in to me that I would be his replacement, but in all fairness you can't replace someone; you can only succeed them by becoming your own thing. While I was out, I worked hard to reinvent my wheel and make it something more my own. That Body Breaker is dead and in her place is a Weapon....Of...Mass....ANnihilation.... I am W.O.M.AN, hear me DESTROY!"
*CROWD POP*
Cassidy: "....and once I get started, there will be no stopping me. Friend, foe, some random hooker, or even mental patient straight out of a nightmare asylum, I do not care! Even if you're from my greatest fantasies or my worst nightmares, if you fight me, It'll bring you that much closer to Heaven or make the Hell I send you to look like PARADISE!"
*HUGE POP!*
She then tosses down the microphone down as her music hit's the P/A system once more. Cassidy walks over to the ring ropes, pushes down on the top to step over them and then hop down off the apron. As she passes a few outstretched hands at the aisle, she gives them some walking fives before slipping through the curtains and into the back!
Amianna: “Well, that was certainly unexpected.”
Lucas: “A nice surprise for Discovery that’s for sure.”
Amianna: “Right you are. And now for our next match of the night!”
Siona: “The following match is scheduled for one fall!”
The Crowd: “ONE FALL!”
Siona: “Introducing, first, Los Angeles, California, Azurine Vebbins!!”
As "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" by Postmodern Jukebox gently plays throughout the arena, "The Adorkable Angel" Azurine Vebbins pirouettes onto the entrance ramp. A solitary spotlight provides an ethereal glow as she begins to descend down the ramp like an angel practicing aerobics. She performs various other dance steps while making her way to the eastern ring apron. Along the way, she waves, high-fives and hugs certain chanters she comes into contact with. When a chanter puckers up for a kiss, she points to her halo (neck collar). Upon entering the eastern ring apron, she glides between the bottom and middle ropes before awaiting referee instruction and her next opponent.
Siona: “Her first opponent, from Colts Neck, New Jersey, Pet!!”
There's not much time given for the song to start before Pet comes out flanked by her Harem. There's no flash or flare as Pet simply attempts to keep herself clear of the hands of fans on her way to the ring. Once inside, and with the Harem surrounding the ring, she simply remains waiting for the bell to sound looking more bored with each passing second.
Siona: “And their final opponent for the night, from Milan, Italy, Luciana Verdoza!!”
As soon as “Confident" by Demi Lovato hits, the fans boo quite loudly as Luciana Verdoza walks out. She merely scoffs as she walks down to the ring, soaking in the boos that are coming her way. She walks with utmost arrogance and haughtiness as she gets to the ring, walking up the steps and stepping through the ropes. She raises her arms up in the air to draw some boos from the audience before she incenses them further with a mocking bow before she steps back into her corner awaiting the upcoming match.
The bell sound and Pet motions at Azurine to do her job and fight. Azurine steps forward, both seemingly following what Pet says but also looking like she was going to it anyway. Luciana steps in and she and Azurine lock-up in a collar and elbow tie-up. As Luciana starts to taker the advantage, Pet runs in and blasts Luciana in the back with a forearm shot. Luciana stumbles and Azuribne takes her over into a snap suplex. Azurine floats over into a cover but Luciana kicks out almost immediately. Pet starts to move in but Luciana gets up and stops Pet in her tracks. Azurine throws a kick that Luciana catches and turns into a dragon screw. Azurine goes down and Luciana tries for a sidelgelock only to have Pet drop an elbow to the Italian woman’s face. Luciana releases her grip on Azurine and Pet starts to put a foot on Luciana’s chest, posing triumphantly. Luciana swings into a roll-up and Pet kicks out quickly. Luciana catches Pet as they stand up for a wicked clothesline but before she can go for the cover, Azurine hits a dropkick to the back that sends Luciana stumbling down to her knees, falling throat first across the bottom rope. As Luciana starts to sit up, Azurine runs in and hits a tiger feint kick that sends Luciana tumbling back into the ring where Pet catches her from behind for a roll-up.
ONE, TWO-KICKOUT!!!
Luciana gets up and knocks Pet down with a nasty back elbow smash. Pet stumbles to one knee and then rolls away as Azurine runs in for a forearms amsh only for Luciana to reverse in midair into a Fujiwara armbar takedown. Azurine grabs the ropes and the referee calls for the break. As Luciana hesitates, Pet runs in and stomps her viciously in the back. Luciana cries out in pain and releases her grip. Azurine flips over into a cradle.
ONE, TWO-KICKOUT!!!
Luciana tries to get away and Pet goes to grab her. Luciana ducks Pet’s strike attempt and runs to the ropes. Azurine gets up to her feet and bounces off the ropes behind her. Luciana rebounds off the far ropes and comes back. She and Azurine crash into each other and clothesline each other to the mat. Pet jumps on top of Luciana for the cover.
ONE, TWO-KICKOUT!!!
Pet lands on Azurine for a cover.
ONE, TWO-KICKOUT!!!
Luciana, Pet and Azurine all get to their feet and Pet and Luciana exchange slaps and Pet pulls Azurine into an Irish whip. Luciana reverses the Azurine whip and Azurine crashes into Pet. Azurine tumbles to the ropes and falls out to the floor. Luciana catches Pet with an inside cradle.
ONE, TWO, THREE!!!
WINNER: LUCIANA VERDOZA AT 15 Minutes & 45 Seconds!
Amianna: “You can bet that Pet was not expecting that!”
Lucas: “That was such a bullshit pin!”
Amianna: “But a pin nonetheless.”
The arena goes silent, as a voice is heard through the growling, and an air raid siren coming from the PA System. The Lights go out as the lights begin to flicker, as a woman is seen standing back first to the crowd.
Lucas: “What the fuck? Who is this!?”
Amianna: “I don’t know, but I like her style.”
"In the Eternal Battle of Supreme
Benevolence versus Absolute Evil
The beast always triumphs
My Name is Legion, for We are the Many."
Legion spins around as the music picks up and the four white spotlights shine on her. She puts her hands out, and begins walking down the ramp, as she ignores the fans. She does some punches mid ramp, as she continues to stare a hole through her opponent. She stops at the bottom and puts her hands above her head in double hand guns, then puts them down, she turns to the stairs going over to them and climbs into the ring, she climbs up onto the middle rope posing for herself, then she turns around going over to the corner grabbing the microphone out of the hand of the person handing it to them, she snarls at them, as they back off. She tilts her head back laughing as she goes back to the centre of the ring, sitting down in the middle of it, cross legged. She motions and a single spotlight shines on her as she sits in the middle, with her black jacket gleaming off the light. She begins speaking as she brushes her brown hair out of her face.
Legion: “You know when you get an offer like the one I got, to be able to tell the world my story. Well, our story. You tend not to take things lightly. Yesterday I was in the darkest of holes, in the darkest of places, and a hand reached out to me, and told me not to give up… not to give in to the others, and the knight saved me that day. Now, she wants her rightful place, and I do not blame her. I want my rightful place, and there is no one who can stand within my right.”
Legion unfolds herself from where she was sitting, she goes over to the ropes where the camera is standing looking up at her. She motions for him to get up on to the ring apron, and then she smirks as she turns to the camera still holding the microphone.
Legion: “But then as I sat and wallowed in my pity, and my guilt and my sorrow, I came to the realization, that I didn’t have to be sad. I had a purpose once more, and the legend of the Queen slayer would rise once more. You know I was once the most feared across every nation, the cure to a disease that plagued everything. Those flippy moves, and those cutesy things that some of the girls do, that was once me but no more. Now, galactic roster, your going to find out why they call me the Queen Slayer. Your going to find out why I was once feared… the business will be just that business, but the memories that people will remember will be of pain and suffering. By the Axe or the Sword they will fall. And then their memory will be burned…”
Legion laughs as she steps back as the cameraman steps down. Legion puts the microphone up to her face once more…
Legion: “By the memory of the Queen Slayer!”
She tosses the microphone to the ground exiting the ring, she taunts the people in the arena as she laughs.
Lucas: “Well, THAT was interesting.”
Amianna: “Indeed it was, Lucas. Too bad Jasmine isn’t here anymore. I’m sure she’d have something to say about the ‘Queen Slayer’ bit.”
Lucas: “You can bet your pretty ass on that.”
Siona: “The following match is scheduled for one fall!”
The Crowd: “ONE FALL!”
Amianna: “These next two matches are for the Number One Contender spot to go up against Dona Rotten at the Invasion Pay-Per-View in April.”
Lucas: “Right you are, Ami. Tonight we see Xena Lingard going up against a strong Maja Lindstrom.”
Amianna: “And then, the second Kingdom verses Shieldmaidens meet up, in a match between Lluvia Cane and Samantha Hamilton.”
Siona: “Our first match for the First Contender Match, from The Isle of Man, Xena Lingard!!”
The song “Can You Feel My Heart?” by Bring Me The Horizon begins to play and Xena makes her way down the ramp. Slapping hands of fans and cheering with them. Once she reaches the ring, she climbs in and poses for her adoring fans.
Siona: “And her opponent, from New Orleans, Louisiana, Maja Lindstrom!!”
The opening riff to Crucified Barbara’s “In The Red” starts and Maja Lindström makes her way through the curtain, almost bouncing in her giddiness. She hurries to the ring and climb sup on the apron, posing with both arms extended to the sky.
Maja towered over the barely 4'11" tall Xena, but proved to be slower as Xena zipped about the ring, dodging Maja's long arms and quick strikes, sometimes by mere millimeters from contact. A springboard BUTT BUMP knocked Xena right off her feet, but the Swedish bombshell recovered quickly and delivered a leg lariat kick that hit hard enough to flip Xena up and over for a belly flop landing. Maja would then assault her smaller opponent with a suplex and a springboard moonsault and a front flip senton all in what seemed like one fluid motion, hooking the leg for a pin attempt, but surprisingly only netting a two count. Maja would then follow up with THE ANGEL'S DEMISE, scoring a 2.99999999 Pinfall.
Maja's frustration starts to mount and it's while she's lifting Xena up that she gets hit with a sudden Jawbreaker that spins her around, stumbling. Xena then rolls her up fast with a handful of her tights, unseen by the ref and scores a quick and dirty pinfall 1-2-3!
WINNER: XENA LINGARD BY PINFALL AT 11 minutes & 12 seconds!
Amianna: “So, Xena Lingard advances to the final round of the First Contender Match by besting Maja. I’d say that both of these women fought hard for that spot tonight.”
Lucas: “Yep, and now we get see the second First Contender match of the night between Samantha Hamilton of the Shieldmaidens verses Lluvia Cane of The Kingdom.”
Siona: “The following match is scheduled for one fall!”
The Crowd: “ONE FALL!”
Siona: “Our second match in the First Contender fight to the Ascendant Title, from Laredo, Texas, Lluvia Cane!!”
"Lucifer's Angel" hits and Lluvia comes out to the stage in her gear. She does a little shimmy then seductively sways her hips as she does a slow 360, showing off her body as she does so. Lluvia then heads down to the ring and slides in under the 3rd rope, doing another little sashay once she stands up. She holds a smirk on her face as she waits for things to get going.
Siona: “And her opponent, from Fort Lauderdale, Florida, Samantha “The Titaness” Hamilton!!”
The song “You’re Going Down” by Sick Puppies begins over the PA system. As the actual lyrics begin playing, the Titaness saunters down the ramp. A sense of determination and resolve can always be found in her eyes. Despite wearing a more stern and serious expression, she's not one to ignore any fans or supporters. Every now and again, she'll give a wave or slight smirk. More often than not, however, the Titaness will stick to her more serious and stoic look.
Cane found herself on the business end of a Hamilton sized beat down. The Bodybuilding biker began the match tossing Lluvia around like a rag doll until She reversed a Suplex into a textbook DDT. From there Lluvia gradually rose up with a head of steam, taking the fight to Samantha as she whittled down the taller foe. A crossbody block gone wrong would prove to be Lluvia's undoing as Sam catches and power slams her right to the ring. A REVERSAL OF FATE follow up would net her a surprising two and a half count, showing Lluvia's incredible resilience. From there, Sam dominated the smaller Cane and it would seem all was lost until a sliver of hope was bought via a well timed ANGELIC REBELLION!
Lucas: “That look like that hurt!”
Sam was nearly devastated by that kick from nowhere, laid flat on her back and Lluvia decided that it was time to finish the match. Climbing the top rope, she signaled for YOUR HORIZON. She went airborn but at the last second, Samantha rolled to the side letting Lluvia crash and burn on the canvas! It was all over for Lluvia who couldn't recover in time to keep Samantha from hitting THE WRATH OF THE TITANS, netting the final pinfall of the match!
WINNER: SAMANTHA HAMILTON BY PINFALL AT 13 minutes & 22 seconds!
Amianna: “There you have it, folks. The final round of the First Contenders match will be Xena Lingard verses Samantha ‘The Titaness’ Hamilton. It’ll be a race to see who hungers for Dona Rotten’s Ascendant Title more.”
Lucas: “I sure wouldn’t mind by getting fed to either woman.”
Amianna: “...”
Lucas: “See! I can leave you speechless. And all without even touching you.”
Amianna visibly shudders and makes a gagging motion.
Amianna: “And now we get to see what these two women are fighting for.”
Lucas: “Yes, we do. Watch in awe as your Goddess, Dona Rotten, makes her way to the stage.”
Siona: “The following match is scheduled for one fall!”
The Crowd: “ONE FALL!”
Siona: “Introducing first, from Asheville, North Carolina, Fire!!”
“A Song of Ice and Fire” begins to play as red light fills the arena. Once the drum beat kicks in, out walks Fire with a red jacket and a hood covering her head. As the song picks up, she removes the hood and Ice joins her at her side. Fire makes her way down to the ring, headbanging to the song, slapping the hands of the fans along barricade. Once she hits the ring, she hops up onto the apron, ripping off her jacket as tosses it down to Ice. She climbs into the ring and runs around, getting caught up in the beat of the song, much to the delight of the fans. Once she makes a lap, she rests in her corner, waiting for the match to begin.
Amianna: “Fire has a fight on her hands tonight. Dona Rotten beat out three other women to secure the Ascendant Championship. And I doubt that she’s going to be giving that up any time soon.”
Lucas: “Would YOU want to try and pry it out of her hands?”
Amianna: “I mean, she IS called The Toxic Knockout for a reason, Lucas.”
Siona: “And her opponent, and current reigning Ascendant Champion, from Portland, Oregon, Dona Rotten!!”
The song “Bulletproof” by Godsmack starts. Dona slowly walks toward the ring, her focus squarely in front of her. She tunes out the fans, her mind lingering on the match at hand. A wry grin creeps across her painted face, as she climbs up onto the apron. Dona steps through the ropes, making her way to midring. The Toxic Knockout finally let's her eyes pan across the ringside area, before spitting a thick green mist skyward. Rotten cackles maniacally, and goes to her corner, to await the matches start.
Amianna: “Now we need to let ya’ll know that this is a non-title defense match between Dona Rotten and ‘Fire’.”
Lucas: “Any time Dona is on the screen I can’t keep my eyes off of her.”
Amianna: “You can’t keep your eyes off any of them, Lucas.”
Lucas laughs.
Lucas: “Hey, I’m a man of various tastes.”
Amianna: “No one cares what your tastes are.”
The proud Ascendant Champion, Dona Rotten walked into the match with a roaring cheer from the crowd and the not so Spooky one ate it up with a spoon until Fire kicked the match off with a vicious series of rapid fire kicks to back and a roundhouse to the side of her head that would send her up and over the ropes! Fire kept the pressure on with a slingshot Satellite DDT out on the arena floor, staining Dona's face in red on impact! It seemed as if the odds were in Fire's favor but once Dona realized she was bleeding, the match turned back into her favor in the quickness as she'd turn the tide in brutal fashion outside the ring with TOXICOSIS!
From there it was all Dona as she battered everything she could with Fire's head and body before throwing her back into the ring where the assault continued, at least until Fire managed to spit directly in Dona's eye, momentarily blinding her long enough to hit a stiff SPRINGBOARD FOREARM. Fire then went to the top rope and dove off with THE FIRESTARTER but DONA COUNTERED WITH HER KNEES! Fire fought to her feet, but was nearly coughing up her lunch when Dona hit THE PUNK PLEX and scored the victory 1-2-3!
WINNER: DONA ROTTEN BY PINFALL AT 15 minutes & 45 seconds!
Lucas: “THAT’S MY GIRL!!!”
Amianna: “Calm down there, killer.”
Lucas: “Hey! I get excited when my girls win. Can’t blame a guy.”
The scene opens up backstage and we see both Alice and Conor McPhee. Alice sitting behind her desk and Conor sitting on one of the office’s couches.
Conor: “So, has everything been secured for tonight? Does anyone suspect anything?”
Alice is leaning back in her chair and she smiles as she looks to her husband.
Alice: “Everything is set. And no one suspects a thing. I made sure of that.”
Conor laughs a bit.
Conor: “You do have a shrewd business mind. And gorgeous, too. Remind me to never sit across from you in the boardroom.”
Alice: “You’d best hope we never get divorced.”
She laughed softly and looked down as she placed a hand on the side of her stomach.
Alice: “Your daughter is kicking. I think she likes my boardroom shrewdness as much as you do.”
Conor: “One can only hope.”
The scene fades out and returns to the commentator’s table.
Amianna: “I wonder what that was about? What, or who, has she secured?”
Lucas: “I don’t know, but I like her style.”
(Yes I know it's spelled wrong! LOL)
Lucas: “Our next match on the card tonight is another non-title defense match between the teams of The Shieldmaidens and Kopadi.”
Amianna nods and smiles to the camera.
Amianna: “That’s right, Lucas. Kopadi came into Discovery as a strong tag team. But, they will have a fight on their hands as the Shieldmaiden team of Alex ‘Bullet’ Carbajal and Jackie ‘Bandit’ Layton are undefeated as a tag team.”
Lucas: “Yep, Jackie is undefeated herself. She’s been paired up with a few of her Shieldmaiden sisters in the past.”
Amianna: “Yes, she has. And so is Alex. These are two very strong women coming down to the ring.”
Siona: “The following match is scheduled for one fall!”
The Crowd: “ONE FALL!”
Siona: “Introducing first, from New Orleans, Louisiana, the team of Alex ‘Bullet’ Carbajal and Jackie ‘Bandit’ Layton.. They are.. The Shieldmaidens!!”
The lights dim and the opening of Little Mix’s “Salute” starts dancing it’s way onto the soundsystem. The Shieldmaidens’s logo pops up on the entrance screen and the song starts to kick into gear. As the lights start to come back up, the whole stage is covered in an eerie, fog-like mist.
Amianna: “That is just one terrifying sight.”
Lucas: “I call dibs on the one with the teal hair.”
Amianna: “Her name is ‘Lyric’, Lucas. Jesus, don’t you know anything?”
Shieldmaidens’ Vice President, Alex “Bullet” Carbajal steps out first, fellow full patch members, Jackie “Bandit” Layton, Samantha “Titaness” Hamilton, Aerynn “Chaos” Maguire and Lyall “Lyric” Allen step out, Bandit and Lyric taking their places on either side of their VP, while the Titaness towers behind the others dead center. Chaos nods behind them and Prospect “Wicked” Wendy Stevens step in behind them with Associate Lexa “Mary Jane” Pellegrini, moving in next to Titaness. With all eight women in place, the Shieldmaidens glare in force out at the ring.
As the chorus rages over the speakers, Bullet leads her group to the ring. They surround the ring, Bandit and Chaos going around the right while Titaness goes to the left. Wicked and Mary Jane follow Bandit and Chaos and then keeps going so as to give the ring at least two ‘Maidens on all four sides, Lyric staying with Bullet. They nod to each other as they wait for the chorus to kick in again. As soon as it starts, Bullet nods and the group all climb up into the ring and make their way to the middle, taking their places as they face the hard camera in the same order they stood on the stage. The chorus plays again and Bullet raises her fist, the others doing the same in unison, all seemingly ready to conquer the world before them.
Siona: “And their opponents, and current reigning Tag Team Champions, from Los Angeles, California, Kopadi!!”
The sound of birds cawing fills the arena as "Otherworld" begins. Ravyn stands with her back to the crowd on the ramp, arms outstretched, a long black feathery robe draped over her. Iphy pushes her way from behind the curtain, and hops in place for a moment. Ravyn turns around, removing the robe as they walk down to the ring, clapping hands and hugging people on the way to the ring. Ravyn slides under the bottom rope as Iphy makes her way carefully up the steel steps. Ravyn climbs each turnbuckle, arms outstretched again., while Iphy enters her corner, and starts to limber up before they hug in the corner, awaiting their opponents.
The bell sounds and Bullet steps out to start with Iphy. The two exchange shots before Iphy takes Bullet down and rides to the corner and making the tap to Ravyn. Ravyn springboards into a leg drop and covers.
ONE, TWO-KICKOUT!!!
Iphy tags back in and tries to take Bullet down again only to eat a shot to the face. Bullet backs up and Iphy makes the tag before slingshotting Ravyn into a flying clothesline. Ravyn rolls and tags in Iphy. Iphy tries for a hold on Bullet’s legs but Bullet kicks Iphy low and rolls her up into an inside cradle.
ONE, TWO-KICKOUT!!!
Iphy crawls to the corner and tags Ravyn back in. Bullet cracks her in the mouth and goes to her corner, tagging in Bandit. Bandit runs in and hits a high leg lariat to put Ravyn down on the mat. Ravyn rolls to the corner and tags in Iphy. Bandit runs over and hits a dropkick that sends Iphy down to the floor. Bandit runs back across the ring and rebounds off the ropes. She comes screaming across the ring and launches herself over the top into a tope con hilo onto Iphy on the floor. Ravyn gets into the ring, runs almost all the way over, then turns and races over for a tope con hilo of her own onto Bandit and Iphy on the floor. Bullet comes into the ring, makes her way to Kopadi corner and climbs to the top, leaping off for a plancha. Bullet egst up and makes her way back around to her own corner while the crowd cheers all the combatants on. Bandit and Ravyn get to their feet and roll into the ring. Bandit runs across the ring, Ravyn right behind her. Bandit gets to the corner and jumps into a whisper in the wind that knocks Ravyn down. As Bandit gets up, Iphy comes in and gets a bridging German suplex.
ONE, TWO-KICKOUT!!!
Kopadi run together and look for Flipping the Birdy. Bullet comes in and nails Ravyn out of midair with a forearm smash. Iphy cracks Bullet with a roundhouse kick and Bandit hits Iphy with a dropkick that sends her over by the ropes. As Ravyn starts to get up, Bandit races over and dropkicks her in the back to send her through the ropes on the opposite side of the ring from where Iphy is. With the referee calling out to Ravyn, the Shieldmaidens manager, Lyric, cracks Iphy in the mouth with a punch from the floor. Iphy staggers up and Bandit catches her for a roll-up.
ONE!!! TWO!!! THREE!!!
WINNER: THE SHIELDMAIDENS IN 22 Minutes and 12 Seconds.
Amianna: “What a match!! But the Shieldmaidens were able to cash in on their ability to work as a unified team.”
Lucas: “Kopadi just wasn’t able to get a wing up tonight.”
Amianna looks at Lucas with this “Really?” type of look.
As the show comes back from commercial, a shot of the alleyway behind the arena can be seen. Dona Rotten sits casually in a metal folding chair, her Ascendant Championship rests proudly on her shoulder.
Dona: "Xena Lingard versus Samantha Hamilton, the winner gets to face yours truly, for this bad boy, right here!"
Dona leans forward, and slaps the metal plating of the Ascendant Championship, as a coy grin creeps across her painted face.
Dona: "Ladies, I got no horse in this race, no dog in this fight, I'd take either one of you on, and put on a fucking battle either way. The winner? Simple, that's me. Because I want to defend, and I want to do that against the very best! This title, this fucking title, it represents something huge."
The Toxic Knockout pulls the title from her shoulder, and holds it out to the side, letting the camera get a good look at the prize at stake.
Dona: "What is that, you might ask. That's the beauty, WE get to determine that. Me, I see it as an opportunity. An opportunity, to put on the absolute BEST matches Discovery can. I will fight tooth, and nail, to keep this. Hell, I had that match with Fire tonight, if I could have, I'd’ve put it on the line against her. I am nothing, if not a fighting champion. I'm not the type to rest on my laurels. I do not fucking coast, I do not slow down, I do not die without one hell of a fight."
Dona’s smirk starts to fade, a snarl begins to form. It was as if a light switch had been flipped, it was obvious she meant business.
Dona: "Samantha, Xena, I want you to listen to me. I want to see you make each other bleed, I want you two to take each other to the absolute limit."
Dona stands, folds up her chair, and begins to walk away. Something compels her to stop, her head turning to face the camera. That wicked grin was back, Dona turns, and points her chair at the camera.
Dona: "And then...they fought."
Dona swings her chair, landing a hard shot against the camera. The screen cracks, and begins to fade, as a fit of laughter can be heard from Dona.
The camera switches back to the commentator’s table showing Amianna and Lucas once again.
Amianna: “Strong words from our Ascendant Champion there.”
Lucas: “If I didn’t know any better, I’d think she wanted them to kill each other.”
Amianna: “Were you not listening at all?”
Amianna: “And here we are at tonight’s Main Event!”
Lucas: “The Ginger Ninja, Molly Hatchet meets up with Jae Un.”
Amianna: “I wonder if Molly will have anything to say to our new GM about that Galactic Championship Title being vacant since Jasmine Matthews left.”
Lucas: “I guess we can only wait and see. Here we go, Everyone!”
Siona: “The following match is scheduled for one fall!”
The Crowd: “ONE FALL!”
Siona: “Introducing first, from Kabuchiko, Tokyo, Japan, Jae Un!!”
As "Mama" begins to play, Jae Un confidently walks out, her eyes focused on the ring. She throws a few careful strikes and kicks before pausing and posing, raising both hands up to the air before bringing them together into a prayer. She nods her head to the music before walking to the ring, her strides confident as she slides under the bottom rope, quickly rising to her feet and staring down her opponent with a smirk.
Siona: “And her opponent, Saint Fillian’s, Perthshire, Scottland, ‘The Ginger Ninja’ Molly Hatchet!!”
The lights in the Arena dim green, soft white lights strobing behind the entrance stage. 2Cello's cover of "Thunderstruck" hit's the PA system.
Stepping out onto the right side of the stage with arms extended, hatchets in either hand and a bit of a spring in her step, is the red headed Ginger Ninja herself, Molly Hatchet. We find her decked out in black and green PVC wrestling pants, a high necked crop top, wrestling boots, hooded black and green "Ginger Ninja" PVC vest, a single black wrestling sleeve on her left arm, hand and wrist tape on the right. She brings her arms in, and crosses them over her chest as two targets rise on either side of the stage. Eyes closed, she takes a moment to juggle these dangerous weapons in perfect synch to the music.
Her head snaps up and the hatchets go flying towards the targets at either side of her, perfect bullseye shots without her even looking at them. A small smile creeps across her freckled face.
She then bolts down the aisle towards the ring in a high speed run. Arriving at ringside, she leaps over the apron and under the ropes to slide to the center. From there she hops up to her feet, throwing her fist into the air.
Molly pulls her vest off, whips it around in the air over her head, and tosses it through the ropes to be caught by a ring attendant. She then throws her arms out at her sides and shouts at the top of her lungs.
Molly: "WHO'S HERE FER AN ARSE WHIPPIN???!!!!!"
The crowd erupts with a huge pop!
The bell sounds and Jae Un snaps off a series of kicks that puts Molly up against the ropes. Jae continues to fire away with strikes until Molly falls through the ropes to the floor. As Molly collects herself on the floor, Jae turns and struts away from the ropes, a smirk on her face that tells the world she thinks she’s just too much. Molly gets back in the ring and Jae catches her coming in with a wicked roundhouse kick before going for a cover.
ONE, TW-KICKOUT!!!
Jae goes for the Iron Maiden bridging armbar but Molly is able to shove her off before she can properly bridge it. Molly starts throwing punches and kicks and pounds Jae into the corner and then wails on her until Jae falls into the seated position against the bottom turnbuckle. Molly goes for a dropkick but Jae moves and Molly hits the turnbuckle instead. Jae cardles.
ONE,TW-KICKOUT!!!
Both women get to their feet and start exchanging strikes. They go back and forth until Jae swings up into a jumping knee strike. Molly goes down to one knee and then springs up into the Hatchet Strike. Jae falls into the corner and Molly gives her the Glasgow Kiss. Jaw goes down and Molly covers.
ONE, TWO, THR-KICKOUT!!!
Jae reverses into a cradle.
ONE, TWO, KICKOUT!!!
Molly reverses into another cradle.
ONE, TWO, KICKOUT!!!
Both women get up and Jae gets in another wicked kick. Jae goes for another jumping spinning kick, Molly ducks and then catches her in the Hatchet Job.
ONE!!! TWO!!! THREE!!!
WINNER: “THE GINGER NINJA” MOLLY HATCHET IN 19 Minutes & 55 Seconds!
The Ginger Ninja pops to her feet throwing her arm into the air. The referee makes his way over and takes her wrist holding it up to announce the winner of the hard-fought match. The fans all broke into a huge cheer as Molly made a beeline for the ropes and leaned through them asking for a microphone.
The sound of her panting breaks the silence as she lifts the mic up. After catching her breath and giving the fans in attendance a moment to quiet down she starts.
Molly Hatchet: "First of all, I'd like ta thank Jae Un for a hell of a match. Thank ye’ kindlae’, Lass. Now, There've been a few hiccups ‘long tha’ way with things, yeah. Mix ups with scheduling and flights missed but now we’re finallae’ back on track and are gonna be comin’ to ye’ twice a month without anae’ bullshyte or shenanigans!"
That bein’ said, I donnae’ think these people paid good money to not have someone who represents ‘em not ta mention that those in the back deserve a leader. Someone who raises her title high above her head in victory and glory. And we all know that that isn't gonna be tha’ former Champion, tha’ train dodger who saw me comin’ fast down tha’ track barin’ right down on her and jumped without even so much as a thought she did!
So I do think it be high time we did somethin’ about it! Me spot in tha main event was alreadae’ set and pressed well. I earned it. Hell, I bled for it! Damn near gave me eye for it. So, Alice do the right thing, Lass. Come on out here and grant me tha’ title and we can find us a proper contender, yeah?!"
Not one to keep the fans or her talent waiting, "Beautiful Dangerous" By Slash Ft. Fergie hits the PA System and out comes Alice McPhee, the new GM once again. And her husband, Conor, who stands protectively beside his wife. It was clear the woman was expecting both in the bulge and in the way she walked and to her credit Molly pushes the ropes down when Alice enters the ring to help her.
Alice: "Thank you."
Molly: "Naturallae’. So?"
Alice: "So!"
Alice pauses a moment to look around the arena and then back at Molly.
Alice: "You think you earned the Galactic Championship, right?"
Molly motions to her eye and says something that sounds remarkably like "The bitch almost took my eye!" to which Alice nods in agreement.
Alice: "You have certainly bled for your shot, Molly. You did indeed almost lose an eye for it and that is why I am willing to honor the contract signed by my predecessor, Jackie. You earned it, but unfortunately, I cannot simply hand you the Galactic Championship."
Molly Hatchet: "Why of course ye’ can, dearie! It’s within yer power ta’ do so!"
Alice: "We already have plans for the next Discovery Pay Per View event, live on the Stanton Network. And if I just broke that agreement I think these ladies may have a problem with it."
Alice opens her hand toward the stage and the fans immediately break into boo's at the intro chord of "The Sound of Us" by Diamante and the words "Kneel to the Kingdom" appear on the screen. Through the curtain comes Chrissy and Lilith, Fire and Ice and Lluvia Cane, all of whom were staring at the ring with hungry smirks on their mouths.
Molly sees the three women come out on the stage and immediately spins around to face Alice, obviously angry but in clear Ginger Ninja fashion Molly nods quickly and motions to the women on the stage with her hand.
Molly Hatchet: "Bring it on! Fourway for tha’ Galactic Championship! I like me odds!"
Alice: "Oh. You’re not understanding, Ms. Hatchet. You aren't facing them."
Molly's expression turns confused for a moment before the lights suddenly fade out and the entire arena is suddenly abuzz with energy at the possibility. Who had Alice signed? Then the opening chords for "Big Bad Wolf" by In This Moment hit the Pa System and the fans explode. They never thought they'd see her again in a Galactic Ring after all the bad blood between her and the previous GM.
Lucas: “CAN IT BE!?!”
The Tron flashes "The Fanged Rose, Jasmine Matthews" and the fans explode again when the Kingdom parts and the woman herself struts through the curtain with the Galactic Championship hanging from her right hand. The woman formerly known as Serah Karin, now revealed to be the long lost Matthews daughter.
Lucas: “YES!! YES!! IT’S JASMINE MATTHEWS!!”
Jasmine leans through the opening and wiggles her fingers at Molly who throws her arms into the air in outrage and begins to yell at Alice, demanding to know why Jasmine's been welcomed back after all she's done but Alice only smiles. Molly turns and storms to the ropes and mounts them, leaning over the top and yelling at Jasmine to come and get some but Jasmine only lets that Matthews smirk pulls at her lips before lifting the Galactic Championship above her head.
Jasmine: "No matter what you do, you will belong to ME!"
Jasmine screamed as the Kingdom all gathered around their leader and Alice clapped as the show goes off the air.
Amianna: “You seen it here, folks! Jasmine Matthews is back and she’s just let Molly Hatchet know that she’s going to have to fight for that Galactic Title.”
Lucas: “She sure has! Good Night from Anaheim!”
