{A black screen. After some time, We get the usual intro, then we get more LAW event highlights, and then Amy Jo Smyth, Amirai Reilley, The Boardwalk Angels, Etsuko, and Sam Tolson holding up their respective titles. We cut from that to a live wide shot of the audience as they cheer wildly as "Fighter" by Christina Aguilera playings We go to Troy, Skye, and Duke, already sitting down.}
{Cameras inside the arena’s lobby caught sight of the fans streaming and stopping at merchandise booths. All manner of LAW goodies were being sold in advance of the show, including the latest editions, Cool Kids shirts, hats, and posters along with Cincinnati Hit Girls jerseys and trading cards. The fans cheered and a few booed as Kenzi Grey-Lacklan and Roxy Cotton walked from the back and into the merchandise sales area. The young lady that was there stopped as she noticed the commotion and turned to the pair of Cool Kids, who seemed to be taking careful inventory of the items that were for sale. She walked over, with a confused look on her face.}
Concession’s Girl: Excuse me guys, but you can’t be back here. We are trying to sell this stuff.
{The Blonde Bombshell was the first to whirl around, arching perfectly plucked eyebrows as she blew a huge bubble with her gum and popped it loudly.}
Roxy Cotton: Excuse you? Do you not recognize who we are? Hell! 85% of the stuff you are selling is because of us!
{Roxy starting pointing the myriad of Cool Kids and Hit Girls merchandise that was hanging up. She stopped when she got to her infamous #69 jersey and checked the price. Her nostrils flared as she pulled down the lot of them and tossed them at the girl.}
Roxy Cotton: $30? You stupid sales monkey, the price is $69.69! Now get your ass in the back and make that price correction before I sell you back to the Organ Grinder who let you off your leash!
{The woman’s mouth drops open, but she slowly starts to make her way to the back, still confused over what was happening. Roxy laughed as she set to rearranging the sales booth to her liking. She took all of the merchandise for other LAW stars and started dumping them in the garbage. She grabbed a stack of Sam Tolson shirts and started pitching them with an exceptional amount of glee. Some of the fans, waiting in line started to boo, yelling insults and telling her to stop, but Roxy only giggled more as she chucked the rest of them, all but the last.}
Roxy Cotton: Hey, Sam Tolson is trash and now her merchandise can join her there!
{One of the fans, an obvious Sam Tolson mark, pounded his fist on the counter.}
Stupid Fan: I CAME HERE JUST TO GET A SUPLEX THE WORLD SHIRT AND A CHAOS TITLE REPLICA!!
{Roxy sighed as she looked at the shirt, then shrugged, spitting her gum on it and rubbing it around to get it nice and sticky. She went to the register and punched a few keys.}
Roxy Cotton: $500 idiot!
Stupid Fan: $500!! FOR A GODDAMN SHIRT?!
Roxy Cotton: The shirt is worthless, and I just gave you a HUGE discount on my DNA! PAY UP MARK!
{The man storms off as Roxy throws the shirt at him and the sticky shirt hits him head in the head, sticking in his hair. Roxy slaps her knee with laughter. The fans screamed and jeered booing her until Kenzi walked over to the counter, holding up her hands to stop them.}
Kenzi Grey: HEY!! Hold on now! We have other things for you! Good things that can help you in your personal lives. Army Strong Workout DVDs might feed your body…
{Kenzi pulled Gabby Camacho’s fitness DVDs down and started replacing them with movies of Scientology and books written by L. Ron Hubbard. She turned around with a broad grin on her face.}
Kenzi Grey: THIS!! This right here will absolutely change your life! It has completely changed mines! Step up…tell me what you want and I will give them to you for free! Heck, I will give you a free book and DVD with each purchase of Cool Kids merchandise!
{Roxy grabbed Kenzi and pulled her aside, whispering in her ear.}
Roxy Cotton: …free, are you crazy…? Those books and movies are really expensive!
Kenzi Grey: Roxy, you can’t put a price on spiritual wellness! Since I became Clear, my whole outlook on life has completely changed! I realize know that I have been spinning my wheels in LAW because I haven’t been in control…I have been reacting instead of thinking with a Clear mind, unclouded by negativity. I have YOU to thank for that…and Tom Cruise.
{Kenzi set back to the task of ringing up customers and handing out merchandise as Roxy watched, shaking her head. She had been the one to introduce Kenzi to Scientology, but even see didn’t take it as far as Kenzi was.}
Roxy Cotton: How much did you spend on those books and videos?
Kenzi Grey: Sixteen grand…give or take.
{Roxy nearly choked as she spun Kenzi around, shaking her.}
Roxy Cotton: YOU’RE GIVING AWAY $16,000?! ARE YOU CRAZY?!
{Kenzi smiled as she hugged Roxy and kissed her on her cheek.}
Kenzi Grey: I know…I wish I had even more to give! ISN’T SCIENTOLOGY GREAT?!!
{Kenzi turned back to the customers, continuing to sell merchandise and give away her wife’s fortune, piece by piece. Roxi shook her head in disbelief and sighed as she started handing out books as well, muttering under her breath.}
Roxy Cotton: …when in Rome, do as the whackos do I guess…
{Kenzi continued selling merchandise until one fan passed on the Cool Kids gear, opting instead to point to a replica title on the wall behind her. Kenzi turned and walked over, pulling down the replica of the LAW Breakout Championship. Kenzi stood there holding it for a moment…even as a small smile began to curl at the corners of her mouth.}
{“Shoot to Thrill” hits and the lights dim a little. Amy Jo Smyth appears at the entranceway in her street clothes - sneakers, jeans, and a Rise Up with Fists t-shirt - and L.A.W. Title hanging off her shoulder. She makes her way toward ring, listening to her music and the crowd that had more cheers than boos to offer her. }
Duke King:[/u] Well, this show is off to a great start.
Troy Franklin:[/u] Amy Jo Smyth, the L.A.W. Champion is on her way out to join us.
Duke King:[/u] Isn’t she scheduled for later?
Skye Sparks:[b/] She is taking on Katalina Star in the main event.
Troy Franklin:[/u] Non title.
Duke King:[/u] Of course.
{Smyth slides into the ring. She moves to the center of the ring, throws up a single fist, and gets a pop from the crowd. Like magic, she pulls a microphone from her back pocket and as her music fades out, she lifts the microphone to her lips. The crowd keeps it up and she just goes with it, shrugging and lowering the microphone.}
Duke King: I'd rather listen to the crowd than her.
Skye Sparks: I thought you liked her…
Duke King: You don't know what I like.
Troy Franklin: This is one noisy crowd.
{Smyth moves the microphone back to her mouth.}
AJS: Okay, okay. I like you too, Boulder…
{Smyth lowers the mic and laughs, pleased with herself over popping the crowd.}
Duke King: Cheap! That was cheap!
Troy Franklin: Whatever it is, it worked.
{The crowd quiets.}
AJS: I thought I'd come out here tonight and let y'all know something important. Something historic and record breaking. Once again, I have made history.
Duke King: Blah, blah, blah.
Skye Sparks: Oh, will you shut your bleeding trap?
AJS: At Queen of the Ring, I defeated Mackenzie Roberts for the second time. I also defended this here title successfully for the second time. That was some match, huh? I broke a lot of things, nothing more important than a long standing record.
{The crowd makes some noise but not much.}
Troy Franklin: Most of us know what record she broke…
Duke King: Did she though?
Troy Franklin: She did.
{For no particular reason, she moves around the ring.}
AJS: I am the first, and so far, only L.A.W. Champion to have two successful consecutive title defenses. And, and!
{She raises a finger in the air to emphasize her point.}
AJS: And this is the big one, y’all. As I stand here before you, I am now the longest reigning L.A.W. Champion in the history of L.A.W.
{The crowd pops.}
Duke King: Lies!
Troy Franklin: Not lies. It's all right there, in our records.
AJS: I have held this title for 194 days, beating the longest streak held by Oni. Come my next scheduled defense, and we all know who it's against again…
{Smyth pretends to yawn.}
AJS: Sorry, excuse me, just… gawd, just her name makes me bored.
{There are some boos at this and it seems her statement has set some Camacho fans off.}
AJS: Yeah, yeah. She won Queen of the Ring. I know. Is my eye roll not strong enough for y'all?
{More boos but not too too many.}
AJS: I digress. By the time I defend again, I will have held this title for well over two hundred days. Then when I successfully defend for a third time, I’ll have that record and continue on with my reign. Proudly and with as much honor as I can muster…
{Before Amy Jo can finish, “Frontline” starts up.}
Troy Franklin: Here comes the new Queen of the Ring and number one contender…
Duke King: Gabby apparently has heard enough.
{Not wasting any time, she marches to the ring, taking a spare microphone from the ringside attendant and slides into the into. Smyth just watches her, unmoved and not amused. Her music cuts out.}
Gabby: Congratulations, champ. You got the win. But let’s not turn this into some meta interview where we take shots at each other. I’ll let your little sly comment slide, as it seems you get picked on way too much and no one takes you seriously despite what you can lay claim to.
{Suttle “oohs” escape the crowd as Smyth just watches, still stone-faced.}
AJS: Well, you just know how to spoil a good time, don't you?
Gabby: The point is, this is about one thing, and one thing only. That championship on your shoulder. At Night of Glory IV, it’s you and me, one more time. Last time, you won. This time, it’s really simple, I’m taking back what’s mine. I went through people who wanted your head at Queen of the Ring, and tonight, I’m going to beat Crystal. You just make sure you’re watching, because you’re going to get a glimpse into your future come November. The countdown is on, champ. Treasure these remaining days you have as the champion. At Night of Glory, it’s all over.
AJS: I have a name… And it ain't champ, you chump.
{Camacho shakes her head, shrugs, and just smiles.}
AJS: Get used to seeing it and saying it, because it's gonna be next to your name in the record books twice - both recorded losses.
Skye Sparks: Someone hit someone!
Duke King: Yes, do it! Throw down! Wrestling, yeah!
Troy Franklin: Looks like another staring contest instead.
{The two continue to stare at each other.}
Camacho: Don't bet on it. I'm ending your little reign.
{With that, AJ perks up. In a flash, she reaches into her pocket, pulls something out, and throws into the air. A rain of golden glitter falls over both women.}
Duke King: Ah, why!
Skye Sparks: Herpes of the craft world.
Troy Franklin: This is starting off with a bit of a spark.
Skye Sparks: A sparkle, you mean.
{“Shoot to Thrill” starts as Camacho looks down at herself, covered in glitter. Smyth is also covered in glitter but far less upset about it. She's actually laughing.}
{The large screen lights up and shows a video feed from earlier today, just backstage. The entrance to the parking area reserved for all of L.A.W's superstars and staff opens up and an unfamiliar pink haired beauty walks through the door with a duffel bag slung over her shoulder and an awe-struck smile on her face. She looks around as she walks through the hall, looking for where she is supposed to go, when backstage reporter, Carmen Diaz, walks up to her.}
Carmen:: Well who do we have here. I haven't seen you before. Let me guess, though. You must be...Nova? Is that right?
{Nova's smile gets just a little wider and she nods, adjusting the strap of her duffel bag over her shoulder.}
Nova: That's me! Nova Rain Sinclair! You're...Carmen, right?
{Nova extends her hand out to Carmen, and the two share a quick and friendly handshake.}
Carmen: Good to see you're at least familiar with the people you're going to be working with. Love the hair, sweetie. Maybe even more than Crystal Millar's. Oh, but don't tell her I said that.
Nova: You're secret is safe with me. I'm not one for starting a bunch of drama or anything. I'm just here to do my thing, ya know.
{Carmen nods and the two share a laugh.}
Carmen: So are you ready for your big debut? You're in the opening match. Are you going to set the bar high?
{Nova smiles again and shrugs her shoulders quickly. If she's nervous, she doesn't show it, and has the most positive attitude anyone could have.}
Nova: That's the plan, honestly. I don't know this Aspen girl that I'm facing, and from what I can tell, I don't think anyone else knows her either. She's been pretty hush hush the last couple of weeks. So quiet that I'm not even sure she plans to be here tonight. But, that doesn't mean that I'm going to give anything less than one hundred percent in this match tonight. She might not care enough to do the same, but I'll be damned if I'm going to disappoint all the fans out there. Right now, no one knows me, but after tonight? They will, and they'll know that I've never been more serious about anything in my life.
Carmen: That's an amazing attitude to have, Nova. I, for one, am looking forward to your debut and seeing what you're going to bring to the LAW roster. Good luck out there.
{Nova nods with a confident smile.}
Nova: Thank you, Carmen. I better go get ready!
{Nova then skips off past Carmen as she searches for the locker rooms. Carmen watches her disappear, smiling in approval of the newest LAW member.}
{The match began with Nova and Aspen locking up, and Nova taking the side headlock. Aspen quickly dropped to a knee, but fought up and pushed Nova into the ropes, trying to shoot her off, but Nova held on tenaciously. Nova then completed the headlock takeover, keeping Aspen grounded on the mat. Aspen began working her way out of the hold, slipping out of the headlock and applying a hammerlock. Nova switched to a seated position turning into the pressure to get a standing positon and reversed into a hammerlock of her own. Aspen then countered with a back elbow, stunning Nova and then Aspen hit a vertical suplex, quickly floating into the pin, but Nova kicked out at 2.
Aspen began to stomp Nova on the ground, impeding her from standing. Nova did get back to her feet and Aspen went for the Irish whip, but on the rebound, Nova countered into a tilt-a-whirl headscissors! Aspen stumbled up, as Nova sprung off the ropes, moonsaulting and landing onto Aspen and taking her down. Aspen slowly popped up again and walked right into a hurricanrana! Nova held the legs, but Aspen kicked out at 2 as well.
Aspen got up in the corner and Nova charged, but Aspen moved out of the way and Nova collided with the turnbuckle. Nova stumbled out, right into a bicycle kick that dropped her. Aspen then hit the ropes and hit the Stamp of Approval [strutting kneep drop] and covered, but Nova kicked out at 2 again. Aspen then positioned Nova in the corner and began to use the face wash on her. Aspen hit the ropes for a running face wash, but Nova moved and Aspen this time collided with the turnbuckle. Nova then hooked Aspen’s head ran up the turnbuckles and swung into a Tornado DDT! Acting quickly, Nova scaled the ropes, and connected with the Super Nova [Summersault double knee drop] Nova covered her for and got the 3 count.}
Troy Franklin: LAW has been amazing so far but next up it looks like we are going to be hearing from our brand spanking new Marquee Champion.
Duke King: CRYSTAL MILLAR!!! That’s my girl! I own all of her movies and…
Skye Sparks: Nobody cares about your fandom, and no one cares about Millar for that matter.
Duke King: These fans will beg to differ I am sure.
Troy Franklin: Will you two just stop?!
{Before anything can happen that’s when we are able to hear Burn by the Cure playing loudly across the speakers. The fans start booing as they hear Team Kick Ass theme playing loudly across the sound system.}
Troy Franklin: That is Team Kick Ass’ theme song which means it looks like the #Coolkids will be taking over this segment instead.
{At that exact moment that’s when we are able to see a caramel beauty emerging from the back. She has tatooes all over her body she is also wearing the Marquee Championship around her shoulder and she seems to have her hair jet black. Next to her is a blonde wearing red contacts. The crowd changes their boos and molds it into that of some cheers as they realize that the two people in front of them all is none other than Crystal Millar and Kate Steele portraying themselves as Kenzi and Sarah. Crystal stops at the top of the ramp as she starts waving and that’s when we can see Maria Salvatore emerging from the back dressed like Milisandre Crowthrone, Jenny Williams making a surprise return is dressed up like Roxy Cotton, and last but not least Chloe Martin the COO of Rose Productions is dressed up like Angie Vaughn. They all strut down to the ring as fans are actually cheering them but Crystal turns her nose up at them playfully as she slides into the ring. They all immediately call for the microphone.}
Crystal Grey: Well well well! BOULDER?! I feel disgusted to be here right now!!! Wait no… Boulder is okay… I am calm… I am cool, and I am collected. For I walk in the path of scientology and now I must be like a zen master and keep my calm.
Red Queen Kate: It’s okay babe… BOULDER SUCKS! All of these people wish that they could!!!!
COOL KID IMPOSTERS!: SIT WITH US!!!!!!!!!!!!
Crystal as Kenzi: Now I am out here tonight because I am not booked for tonight but this is the part where I make sure that you all know that the entire show is all about us!
Red Queen Kate: AMY JO SMYTH IS DUCKING ME ROARRRRRRRRRR
Crystal Grey: Wait we just started babe… You aren’t supposed to take random shots at a wrestler who will be a much better wrestler than you ever will be until about 3/4th into our little promo.
Red Queen Kate: AJS MUST DIE IN A FIRE ROARRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
Crystal Grey: You do realize she’s near the top of the card right? I mean throwing stones at her to get her attention won’t be enough. We have to do something drastic! Maybe just maybe if we if we win Queen of the Ring we will make her pay attention since she’s jealous because she just can’t….
COOL KID IMPOSTERS!: SIT WITH US!!!!!!!!
Maria Crow: Look I am just here because I am entitled to be here… How long will the Cool Kids actually last?!
Crystal Grey: I don’t know considering I am your leader and I burned the Kentourage to the ground, just like Guilty Pleasures, just like everything I ever touched I would say one month before it dies out until I just jump to something else because that’s what I do… But no worries I walk with scientology I am in a better place.
Chloe Vaugh: Wasn’t you talking to the homeless psychiatrist just last week? Is this one of your mood swinging issues happening?
Jenny Cotton: I just want to break something!!!!
Red Queen Kate: Before we kill AJS!!! Before we take up six useless seg spots on a show I am actually shocked we got married?! I heard about you and Alex Yin! I heard about you and JMC… You really can’t do anything right can you?
Crystal Grey: BUT….BUT….BUT THIS IS SO STUPID!
{Crystal takes her black wig off and throws it to the side. Her purple hair drapes down her back and she raises her Marquee Championship high into the air. Jenny, Chloe, and Maria take their leave as it’s just Kate and Crystal standing in the ring. Crystal and Kate look at one another as they give each other a hi five. As they stand tall in the ring to the loud ovation of cheers.}
Crystal: Ladies and gentlemen I am your SILVER SCREEN QUEEN and more importantly I am your brand spanking new Marquee Champion!!!!
Kate: And I am the Siren Kate Steele!!!!
Crystal: Kate and I have had some problems in the past but I actually had a hand in training her 5 years ago when she was breaking into this business. What you are seeing in the ring right now is what happens when the Mass Media Militia reunites for one night only to get a point across.
Kate: The point is we could waste your time like we did with our demonstration a few moments ago. That’s all you get with the Cool Kids every week. No one gives a flying “BEEP” about Kenzi and Sarah’s relationship. There’s only so much that you can take shots at people without having them fire back! Now I will openly admit that I got my ass kicked at Queen of the Ring. My head wasn’t in the game and Sarah did best me. As simple as that she beat me, but am I supposed to just keel over and let that be the end of my story?
Crystal: No!!! Because that’s not who you are Kate!
Kate: Exactly my chapter doesn’t end there. I have been known for running my mouth to no end and despite how many people step up to the plate shutting me up requires earning that respect in the ring. Something AJS did in the ring, Something Gabby did in the ring. These Cool Kids aren’t on that level yet and what they are doing we have seen it before on so many different occasions.
{Kate shakes her head disgusted}
Kate: Pink Ladies been there done that! AOV been there done that! Pink Ladies again? Done that… It’s just the same old shit repackaged renamed… And it’s not built to last and I am going to nip that shit before it even gets a chance to take off! Now things didn’t go for me as planned at Queen of the Ring that much I will agree with but now the question is what happens next? Well I have two things on my agenda… You see I made a promise to be the first ever triple crowner in this company and sometimes we have to take a side path in order to get to what we really want.
Crystal: Which is?
Kate: I want that Chaos title… I wanted it since the day it came in existence. I in my own right am a 7 time Extreme style of champion. I grew up being that kind of warrior, being one who consider themselves as Emo who self inflicted pain on herself. I know how to take a hit and in the same token I know how to give it. Kenzi and I were supposed to battle for that belt but I got side tracked when Sam beat her. I wanted to be a good teammate to Sam but then I became blinded with Kenzi and gunned after the tag straps which didn’t happen. So now it’s back to the task at hand get what I think I can earned and aside from that getting my hands on Milisandre Crowthrone…
{Kate shakes her head as she speaks some more.}
Kate: That bitch has a sense of entitlement and it reminds me of how I grew up. I was a stuck up little brat as a matter of fact I know I haven’t grown out of that but I am making strides to do so. I refuse to let that bitch try to cut corners just because she feels she’s with the it crowd. If I ever confront her she will get her ass handed to her. So you let me know Crowthrone… Whenever you want to go we can do this… Hardcore rules preferably. I am here to make a statement and I will do so by your expense….
Crystal: And of course that brings us to me and I actually get my moment. Tonight for the very last time for a long time you will see Camacho and I fighting one on one. I have to prove myself that I can hang with her. I have to prove it to the fans that I have what it takes to beat her….
{Crystal takes a breath as she looks at her title}
Crystal: However now is the moment we have all been waiting for. What am I going to do now that I have my Marquee moment. The truth is just fight. Sarah likes to talk a lot of shit about things that doesn’t concern her. Well I am here next opponent and she needs to understand she needs to be focused solely on me. I will NOT be a transitional champion. I will not let my angels down. I will fuck that blonde bitch up like she stole something and I will keep fighting until I keep proving myself that I have what it takes to carry this company to where it needs to be. I know a lot of people talk down champions who don’t show up and promote their belt. Well guess what everything you say Sarah is all talk because here I am so bring your ass.
{Crystal lays her title on the ground.}
Crystal: You want what I got? Well come take it… COME ON AND TAKE IT I DARE YOU!!! Yeah that’s what I thought. Anyway this is my era Sarah and you won’t be ruining my moment. Now if you would excuse me I have a match to get ready for. See you later!
{With that Crystal and Kate give each other a hug as they leave the ring fading to elsewhere.}
{Following her big debut win against Aspen Dejardins, Nova Sinclair is seen backstage, smiling and on cloud nine. She’s making her way towards the locker rooms once again, enjoying the feeling of her very first victory. She’s not paying much attention to where she is walking when she bumps into someone, nearly knocking them over.}
Nova: Oh! I’m sorry! I should have been watching where I was going.
{The person she bumped into was none other than Maria Salvatore. The Italian manages to keep herself upright as she looks back at the redhead in front of her. She isn’t alone as her fiance Maleek Raheem is watching the both of them. He offers a wide grin as he begins to speak.}
Maleek: Girl you ain’t gotta be sorry. It’s not like my Maria was going to fall. With an ass like her’s it gives her enough cushion for a soft landing or it balances her out so she doesn’t fall at all. The main point I have to say is you ain’t gotta worry about anything.
{Maria turns her attention over to Maleek just shaking her head in disgust as she turns back to Nova and giggles at the woman.}
Maria: Don’t mind my fiance… He tends to say things that might not seem so friendly. Anyway it’s a pleasure to meet you! I am Maria Salvatore… At one time I was one of the general managers around here, I was even the director of talent relations, and now I am trying my hand at wrestling although I really haven’t much luck… Sorry that I am babbling on it’s a pleasure to meet you?
{Maria thinks about going for a handshake but instead she opens her arms wide up as she offers a hug. Nova is taken by surprise but she just smiles and laughs it off before she backs away.}
Nova: Thanks! And it’s nice to meet you, too. I’m Nova. Other than Carmen Diaz, you’re the only person I’ve really met so far. So...I guess that’s a good thing.
Maria: Oh it is a good thing. You just need to watch yourself. There are some real bullies on this roster. I wouldn’t trust anybody in those damn #CoolKids… You know how overrated and overplayed the whole you can’t sit with us thing is?! It’s sooooo stupid!”
Maleek: Babe don’t get mad because they didn’t invite you to be with them… You should at least be happy that they took a selfie with you at Queen of the Ring!
Maria: NOOOOOOOO it was stupid! I poured my heart into Kenzi Grey as a member of the Kentourage and she can’t even bring me over?! STUPID, STUPID, STUPID! It’s back to the basics back to doing what I love the most and that’s treating everyone fairly and equally. Being a voice to everyone on the roster which means especially you Nova!
Maleek: And what exactly are you going to do Maria you aren’t a GM anymore!
Maria: I know that but it can’t stop me from being friendly! Besides Nova just got here and she could totally use a new best friend here! Right? Right?!
{Nova scratches her head, lets out a laugh and shrugs.}
Nova: Sure...I mean...I guess! But, I’m not really looking to just make friends here, Maria. I’m here to focus on being the best wrestler that I can be, and making an impact. I’ve seen too many people let their friendships and relationships get in the way and screw it all up in the process.
{She drops her hand, but keeps a smile on her face.}
Nova: And thanks for the advice. I’m sure some people won’t like me or my personality, but I don’t care. I never have and I never will. I don’t plan on going out of my way to try and impress people. They’ll either like me, or they won’t. Plain and simple.
Maria: And that’s the right attitude to have… Me personally haven’t managed to be so lucky here. I have taken a lot of losses lately and it’s hard to really find my way, but I just need to keep smiling and keep chugging along. You were awesome tonight. I believe you have all of the ability to make it far in this business. There’s something special about you!
Nova: Thanks! I really appreciate that. Anyway, I’d love to stay and chat, but I really need to go take a shower. That chick made me work and I hate being sweaty for too long!
Maria: Enjoy the showers… I think my fiance and I will watch more of the show eye future competition and go from there. Take care and have a great one!
{With that Maria grabs Maleek by the hand as they walk in a different direction.}
{The tag team match starts off with Christy Winters and Tala Sugay in the ring. They lock up, fight for position, and Tala moves into a waist-lock on Christy. Christy tries to break free but Tala floats into a hammerlock. Christy manages to reverse and put Tala into a hammerlock now. Tala moves forward into the ropes and grabs the top rope for a rope break. Christy waits until four to release her. Tala shakes out her arm but Christy gives her no time to recover and grabs her by the hair and cracks her in half with a backbreaker. Tala hits the mat, holding her back. Christy toe-kicks Tala in the back then hits a leaping knee drop to that same area. She goes for the cover but Tala kicks out hard at one and a half. Christy, undetermined, lifts Tala by the hair and drags Tala to her corner, right to Kayla. Christy makes the tag and the two women drop tandem fist drops on Tala.
Kayla, now the legal woman, keeps Tala in the Winters’ corner and starts rapid fire punches, a few knees to her gut, and then a choke. Jazzy Sugay jumps into the ring, forcing the ref to push her back. Christy and Kayla take advantage of this. Christy keeps Tala trapped in the corner by pulling on her arms while Kayla lays in one hard punch after another to her head. The referee returns and Christy quickly releases Tala. Tala falls to the mat and Kayla goes for the cover. She only gets a two. The older Winters’ sister gets to her feet slowly and watches Tala start an even slower crawl toward the outstretched hand of her sister, Jazzy.
Tala only gets so far before Kayla grabs Tala by the head and hair, dragging her away and to her feet. Kayla wraps her Tala up in a sleeper and stares at Jazzy. Just like that, Kayla drops Tala with a sleeper hold neckbreaker. Kayla hooks the leg. Jazzy rushes into the ring, breaks up the pinfall with a big stomp. Kayla takes the hit to her head and rolls over, holding her head. Jazzy pushes out of the ring by the referee as Christy reaches out of the tag. Tala does the same, inching closer and closer. Kayla gets to her feet, tries to grab Tala before the tag but it’s too late. The tag is made and Jazzy comes charging into the ring.
Jazzy Sugay hits one clothesline. Kayla pops upright. Another clothesline. Kayla comes up. Another clothesline. Another clothesline. Kayla up again. Jazzy hits a running hammerlock DDT and hooks the leg. Kayla gets the shoulder up at two. Jazzy lifts Kayla up feet just shoot her into the ropes, hit her in the gut with a huge knee to the gut that slides into a backbreaker. Jazzy follows that up with a standing moonsault. She hooks the leg and gets a solid two count.
Jazzy lifts the dazed Kayla up to her feet. Kayla is thrown into the Sugay sisters’ corner hard with an Irish whip. She bounces out, gets caught by Jazzy and put down with a suplex. Jazzy distracts the ref as Tala hurries up the turnbuckle and comes down with a splash. Christy rushes into the ring and is pushed back out again by the ref. Tala rolls out of the ring and Jazzy goes for the cover. At two, Christy dashes into the ring and breaks up the count with an ax handle smash.
An angered Jazzy grabs Christy by the hair and slams her into the turnbuckle. As the ref deals with that, Tala slides Kayla to the corner and slams Kayla’s leg and knee into the post. Somehow, Christy is able to get the upper hand on Jazzy and drops her down with a simple but effective side russian leg sweep. Tala turns her attention to Christy now, rushing over and grabbing her by the ankle, forcing her down to the mat, and pulls her out of the ring to the mat.
Confused, possibly injured, and working out the kinks in her knee, Kayla climbs to her feet, grabs Jazzy, and lifts her for a fireman’s carry but Jazzy slides free, pushes Kayla away and spins her around. When Kayla returns, she is scooped up into a small package that secures the three, even against the efforts of Christy reaching in to break up the pinfall.}
{Kenzi Grey-Lacklan and Sarah Selena Lacklan sat together along with their attorney, Dani Chow as they waited for Colin Reed to show up. Sarah seemed exasperated at the thought that they two of them were made to come to LAW in order to settle things with this supposed marriage from over a year ago that Kenzi was supposedly too drunk to remember. The number one contender to the Marquee Title turned to Dani, her brow knitted into a harsh scowl as her red eyes pierced her.}
Sarah Selena Lacklan: Chow! Are you sure that you have all the needed papers to have this marriage annulled? I don’t want any more slip ups! My wife and I have other pressing matters to attend to!
{Dani nodded as she answered in her clipped and heavy accent.}
Dani Chow: I not take long Sarah Lacklan. Once Colin Reed sign annulment agreement, everything be okay. Kenzi Grey not remember marriage, how make consent? Kenzi Grey probably not even consummate marriage! It no problem, this very small thing.
{This seemed to please Sarah, as she clapped her gloved hands together and turned to Kenzi with a bright smile.}
Sarah Selena Lacklan:All of this will be over Beloved, and then we can refile our marriage documents and get on with the business of being wife and wife!
{Kenzi kissed Sarah, then all eyes turned to the door as Colin Reed walked in with Sidney Grey. Colin did his best to avoid the angry gaze of Sarah as he sat down, looking nervously down at his hands. Sid smiled as she sat beside Colin, taking one of his hands in hers as she looked at the three women sitting across the table from them.}
Sidney Grey: How is everyone doing this evening?
Kenzi Grey: Mom, what are you doing?
{Sid chuckled, giving Colin’s hand a firm squeeze that caused him to wince.}
Sidney Grey: I’m giving my son-in-law the moral support that he needs to get this this.
{Sarah, already fed up with this grabbed the papers from Dani and shoved them over to Colin. She snatched a pen and threw it at him.}
Sarah Selena Lacklan: SIGN THE PAPER YOU WEAK CHINNED IDIOT! YOU’VE WASTED ENOUGH OF MY TIME!
{Colin held the pen in his hand, as he looked at Sarah, then turned from her angry gaze as he looked at Kenzi.}
Colin Reed: Ken…I know that this is a weird situation. I mean, it’s not like the two of us were really in love. It was a matter of too much drinking and things just got out of hand. I hope that we can find a way to get pass that.
{Sarah pounded her fist on the table.}
Sarah Selena Lacklan: Sign the paper…NOW!
{Colin gave her a nervous glance, then slowly sat the pen down and slid the paper away from him with a shake of his head.}
Colin Reed: I’m sorry…I can’t sign that. I can’t annul the marriage or give you a divorce…
Sarah Selena Lacklan: I WILL RIP YOUR LUNGS OUT!!
{Sarah dove across the table at Colin, and he fell out of the chair and crawled across the floor to escape the enraged woman. Sid got between them as he backed away, his face pale with fear. Kenzi grabbed Sarah by the shoulder to calm her as she looked at her ‘husband’ in utter disbelief.}
Kenzi Grey: Why are you doing this Colin? It’s like you said…we don’t love each other. It was stupid night of drinking and we did something that we regret. Why can’t you sign the papers and be done with it?
{Colin looked nervously from Kenzi to Sarah and back again. He swallowed hard as he struggled to stand up.}
Colin Reed: I would give you an annulment…but it doesn’t work like that…not for Catholics! I can’t just sign a piece of paper and POOF I’m no longer married!
{Sarah screamed.}
Sarah Selena Lacklan: I CAN SEND YOU INTO THE FUCKING ABYSS AND THEN YOU’LL NO LONGER BE BREATHING WORM!
{Sid took Colin by his hand as she played intermediary. Kenzi’s mother did her best to hide how happy she was.}
Sidney Grey: Girls! This is a matter of faith! My son is a very devout Catholic, and as such, there is no such thing as divorce and annulment is a process. He can’t just sign a paper and make this all go away! Surely you can understand how important one’s faith is!
{Sarah screamed, but Kenzi hugged her to keep her calm; assuring her that they would find a way to get through this.}
Kenzi Grey: How long does this process take and who do we need to speak to?
{Colin cleared his throat as he answered.}
Colin Reed: It’s a Catholic Church Tribunal that decides. It’s kind of alike a court for church.
{Sarah was fuming as she spoke up again.}
Sarah Selena Lacklan: HOW LONG?!
{He swallowed again, looking around nervously as he spoke in a whisper.}
Colin Reed: …anywhere from a few months…to a year…
{The color drained from Sarah’s face as she sat back, her red eyes wide with shock over the news that her union with her ‘wife’ would not be legal anytime soon. Kenzi reached over to take Sarah’s hand, but she simply patted it as she stood up and walked to the door. She paused there for a moment as she spoke in a hushed tone.}
Sarah Selena Lacklan: …be careful that you don’t find yourself on the wrong team Mother Grey…it will not end well for you, I promise you that…
{Sarah pulled up her blood red cowl of crushed velvet and walked out. The room was deadly silent in Sarah’s absence, until AMC walked in, looking around nervously, not seeing Sarah, then breathing a sigh of relief.}
AMC: Sorry I’m late! What did I miss?
{Colin walked out with Sid right behind him, a smirk on her face. AMC walked over and hugged Kenzi.}
AMC: I’ll be there for you Kenz…just tell Sarah to not kill me, okay?
{Kenzi was too upset to laugh as she sat back and wondered how long it would take to get out of this mess.}
{Amy Jo Smyth and Megan Helms-King sit in Megan’s office. Well, Megan sits behind her desk while Amy Jo Smyth stands in front of the desk. The cameraman sneaks in closer to pick up their conversation but remains unseen by the two women.}
AJS: What do you mean?
MHK: I mean exactly that.
AJS: How?
MHK: Pet gave me a call, asked if you could face Katalina Star next show… I said sure.
AJS: You just approve matches for people without them involved?
MHK: She said you had asked for it.
{Amy Jo is growing red in the face with anger. Megan just shrugs.}
AJS: Pet asked for this?
MHK: Yeah. I assumed that you had asked her to call for you…
AJS: I didn't. She lied to you.
{Megan, again, shakes her head and shrugs.}
MHK: Well, a match is a match…
AJS: That's not my problem.
{With that, Amy Jo storms out of the room, pushing past the cameraman, knocking him to the floor.}
MHK: Oi, watch the crew!
{The scene goes dark.}
{The bell rang as Abby advanced towards Roxy who was preoccupied checking herself out with a mirror she hand in her hands. Abby walked up and snatched it away and tossed it aside, before hitting a belly to belly suplex on Roxy, taking her down and mounting her and nailing hard right hands. Roxy’s foot was under the rope so the official had to break it up. Roxy rolled out of the ring, complaining about Abby attacking her and motioning for Abby to be kept back. Abby ignored that and rolled out of the ring, chasing Roxy around the ring until Roxy slid into the ring and caught Abby sliding in and kicked away at her. Roxy pulled Abby to her feet and snapmared her to the mat, kicking her hard in the back afterward. Roxy then started choking Abby, the official warning her and she broke on 3. Roxy stood up, proud of herself as Abby gasped for air on the mat. Abby leaned against the ropes and Roxy took the chance to choke her some more against the ropes. Once again breaking on 3, Roxy was moved back by the official. Abby slowly got up and Roxy threw her into the corner and hit a series of elbows to the head that had Abby slumped in the corner. Abby then went for the Kitty buster but Abby moved out of the way. Abby stood, and then hit a nice DDT. She covered, but Roxy kicked out.
Abby then hit a vertical suplex, stalling for several seconds before dropping Roxy down. She covered again, but Roxy slipped out again. Abby then clotheslined Roxy down and Roxy rolled to the floor to regroup, but Abby was having none of that, grabbing Roxy and tossing her head first into the ring apron before throwing her back inside the ring. Roxy begged off as Abby advanced, and then Roxy grabbed Abby’s waist and threw her face-first into the corner. Roxy quickly got back up, stomping away at Abby until she kicked her clear from the ring. Roxy stood proud of herself as Abby slowly got up on the outside. Abby slid back in woozy, caught unaware by Roxy with a rocker dropper. Roxy covered, but Abby managed to kick out at 2.
Roxy pulled Abby up and attempted the irish whip, but Abby reversed. Roxy ducked a clothesline and caught Abby on the rebound with a leg lariat. Roxy then climbed to the top rope and went for a guillotine leg drop, but Abby rolled out of the way. Abby and Roxy laid on the mat until Roxy managed to get up trying to pull Abby up, but Abby hit the Recovery [RKO] out of nowhere. She covered, but Roxy managed to drag her foot across the bottom rope to save herself. Abby then positioned Roxy for the Abstinence [Hero’s welcome] but Roxy twisted out of it, and attempted the Double-D DDT, but Abby blocked. Abby twisted out herself and again looked for the Abstinence, but Roxy dropped to her back and raked Abby across the eyes, She rolled Abby up, putting her feet on the ropes for extra leverage and got the 3 count.}
Troy Franklin: Welcome back ladies and gentlemen to LAW episode sixty-eight, and guys, we’ve still got plenty of great action ahead.
Duke King: You ain’t kiddin’, Troy. We’ve got some blockbuster matches still to come including last years Queen of the Ring winner, Crystal Millar going one on one with the brand new Queen of the Ring, Gabby Camacho!
Skye Sparks: And don’t forget our Main Event that will see our very own World Champion, Amy Jo Smyth in action for the first time since she successfully defended her title against Mackenzie Roberts at the Queen of the Ring Pay-Per-View and her opponent will be Katalina Star!
{Suddenly, the opening bass line of “I Will Not Break” by A Sound Of Thunder blasts out of the PA system and the fans are up on their feet almost immediately.}
“And you heard the girls talking…and you thought they were talking about you.”
“Oh no, we can’t ask her! She’s a creep!”
“Who are they talking about?”
{As the song kicks in, the camera cuts to the stage where we see “Unbreakable” Stacy Jones standing there with a small smile on her face. After taking some time to soak in the love from the sold out Coors Events Center here in Boulder, Colorado she begins to make her way down the ramp.}
Troy Franklin: And of course, how could we forget about this young ladies first match as a fully contracted wrestler tonight, Stacy Jones going one on one with Millisandre Crowthorne.
Duke King: Miss Jones here showed a lot of heart and determination in the Queen of the Ring tournament, knocking La Estrella out of the quarter-finals and in all honesty, I believe she had Sarah Lacklan beat in the semis had it not been for that mysterious masked woman along with Kenzi Grey sticking their noses into her business.
Skye Sparks: No matter how it happened, Duke, Stacy lost to Sarah in the semi-finals, not that it would have mattered because if Gabby was going to beat Sarah in the finals, she would have had no problem in beating Stacy had it been her in the finals instead.
{Giving her wool hat to a lucky young fan in the front row, Jones then hops up onto the ring apron and putting her back to it, she then proceeds to backflip over the top rope and into the ring before throwing up the devil’s horns much to delight of the fans in attendance.}
Troy Franklin: Stacy is a very proud wrestler so the way things ended for her at the Pay-Per-View must be eating away at her.
Duke King: Girl wears her heart on her sleeve, Troy, and the fact she wanted to win the tournament so badly so she could achieve hers and her father’s dream of finally winning the big one, of course it’s gonna hurt.
Skye Sparks: Oh quit with the sob story already.
{The Unbreakable One calls for a microphone and is handed one by ring announcer, Beth Harris and “I Will Not Break” fades out.}
Stacy Jones: Two weeks ago, at the Queen of the Ring Pay-Per-View, I walked into the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada to do battle against seven of the best wrestlers in this company today in a knock-out tournament to be crowned Queen of the Ring 2017…
{Jones paces the ring a little.}
Stacy Jones: Not only that, but the winner would also receive a World Championship match against the winner out of the Main Event that night between Amy Jo Smyth and Mackenzie Roberts.
{She shakes her head as she strokes her free hand through her long jet black hair.}
Stacy Jones: It started off really well for me…I managed to defeat La Estrella in the quarter-finals…but then came my semi-final match against Sarah Lacklan.
{The fans boo heavily at the mention of Lacklan’s name.}
Stacy Jones: Now, in any other circumstance, had I lost to the better opponent that night, I would have picked myself up, dusted myself off as I always do whenever I suffer defeat and just continued moving forward. But I have something I need to get off my fucking chest!
{Her anger is building now and the fans are loving seeing this side of The Unbreakable One as she glares at the stage.}
Stacy Jones: I had Sarah Lacklan beat! I was about to prove to her that even though she claims to be better than me in every single way, that all she was spewing was a whole lotta bull shit!
{She smirks, shaking her head again.}
Stacy Jones: But then, low and behold, Kenzi Grey decides to show up! Now, don’t get me wrong, I may despise both of you, but I honestly feel for what you’re both going through right now with this whole getting married and then finding out that Kenzi’s already married. But that kinda stuff, you sort out in your own time…not in the middle of a God damn tournament match!
{Looking to the floor for a brief moment, she lightly scratches her cheek with her index finger before looking back up into the hard camera.}
Stacy Jones: But that wasn’t it…oh no…when I was about to put Sarah down for good, Kenzi distracts the referee and then I get attacked by this mysterious woman who showed up earlier in the show! She may be mysterious to all of you and to most of the LAW locker room, but she is not mysterious to me!
{Turning back to the stage now, she grabs the top rope.}
Stacy Jones: SO GET YOUR ASS OUT HERE, SYLVIA LOPEZ SO I CAN END YOU RIGHT NOW!!!
{The fans cheer wildly as Jones paces back and forth like a wild animal.}
Troy Franklin: I knew it was Sylvia Lopez!
Duke King: So did everyone else, Troy. That crazed lunatic has been making Miss Jones’ life a living Hell over these past few months.
Skye Sparks: I don’t think it’s wise of Stacy to be calling her out for a fight when she’s got a scheduled match coming up.
{After a few moments of Jones yelling towards the stage, a maniacal laugh echoes through the speakers and the titantron flickers to life as we see Sylvia Lopez standing there in a darkened undisclosed part of the arena.}
Sylvia Lopez: I told you, Stacy…I warned you! As long as I’m around…you’ll NEVER be able to realise your dream of becoming World Champion!
{Clutching at her leather jacket, she looks up at the ceiling and chuckles.}
Sylvia Lopez: Call it whatever you will, Stacy…revenge…redemption…karma…it doesn’t matter to me! Just like I said at Queen of the Ring…this place is full of liars, frauds and cowards just like you! And I am simply here to help cure the cancer that is travelling through LAW!
Stacy Jones: I’m the coward?!?! Says the bitch who’s hiding somewhere in the back instead of saying all these things to my face!!!
{Once again, Lopez lets out a maniacal laugh, shaking her head.}
Sylvia Lopez: In due time, Stacy…in due time. I’m not going to waste my time on you this evening, oh no…it’s not worth it. See this? This is just a small part of my plan…I’m not here to make friends…I’m not here to win matches or championships…I’m here to help set all of these people free! I’m here to guide them into the light! I’m here…to show them the path to righteousness!
{Lopez then outstretches her arms and once again looks up to the ceiling.}
Sylvia Lopez: Follow me…and I will show you all the truth!
{Slowly lowering her head now, she glares into the camera.}
Sylvia Lopez: Stand against me…and you…will…BURN!!!
{And with that, the tron cuts to static and Jones who is now really fired up and angered, shakes her head, pacing back and forth.}
Stacy Jones: You know what? Fine! Let’s get Crowthorne out here and have this match!
{She then tosses the microphone to the mat and removes her custom black leather jacket, also tossing that to the floor as she awaits her opponent.}
Troy Franklin: Well Stacy is certainly all fired up and ready to go!
Duke King: Clearly this Lopez chick has gotten into the head of this young lady and we’ll find out soon enough if that’ll be a good thing or a bad thing for her opponent.
Skye Sparks: I’m going to hazard a guess that Millisandre Crowthorne is going to use this to her advantage and gain another victory for the Cool Kids over the self-proclaimed Unbreakable One here tonight!
{The bell sounded and Stacy stared at Milisandre, who looked seemingly disinterested in the match. She took a lackluster approach and then the two locked up. Once tied up, Milisandre simply grabbed a handful of Stacy’s hair and yanked her to the ground. The official yelled at her, but Mil seemed to not be listening and shrugged. Stacy got back up, unloading with right hands backing Mil into the corner and the official stepped in and broke it up. Stacy backed off as Mil ducked in between the ropes in order to keep Stacy back. Stacy becomes restless as Mil calmly got fully into the ring. Stacy advanced again and Mil once again ducked her head in between the ropes. Stacy was once again forced back by the official and then Stacy began to argue. Mil takes advantage, charging Stacy and blindsiding her with a clothesline. Stacy went down and Mil started putting the boots to Stacy, picking her up and ramming her face-first into the top turnbuckle, before simply chucking Stacy to the outside.
Mil stood in the ring absorbing the boos, then went outside and rammed Stacy back-first into the apron. Mil rolled into the ring, sitting in the middle, telling the official to count Stacy out, but at 6, Stacy rolled back in, right into being choked by Milisandre. Mil then whipped Stacy into the ropes and caught her with a back elbow and then a running high knee that dropped Stacy to the mat. Mil covered, but Stacy kicked out at 2. Mil then began to work over the knee of Stacy, dropping several stomps, elbows and driving her own knee into the leg of Stacy. Feeling it was sufficiently weakened, Mil attempted a figure-four, but Stacy kicked her away, Mmil charged but Stacy countered with a back drop, and then a dropkick, hurting her leg a little more in the process. Mil slowly got to her feet, only to be met and charged at Stacy again, only to be caught with a powerslam. Stacy stayed on top for the cover, but Milisandre kicked out at 2.
Stacy walked with a slight limp, and She attempted to slam Milisandre again, but Mmil countered and hit several kicks to the leg and then one big leg kick but Stacy on one knee, and Mil drove her face into the canvas. Mil then slapped on a figure four, applying it and rearing back to increase the pressure. Stacy refused to tap out, and after reaching for what seemed like ages, Stacy did indeed reach the ropes. Mil then quickly drug her to the center of the ring, and tried to reapply the hold, but Stacy rolled her into an inside cradle, but Milisandre kicked out at 2. Milisandre popped up, making sure Stacy stayed on the mat with more kicks to the injured leg. Mil then drug Stacy towards the ropes and boosted herself on the second rope, looking for a second rope elbow, but Stacy rolled out of the way and Mil hit nothing but canvas. Stacy hobbled to her feet, using the ropes, and Mil charged and went for a high knee again, but Stacy caught her and turned it into a belly to back suplex. Stacy covered, but Mil kicked out again. Stacy got up, hobbling up behind Mil and connected with a bulldog, and then tried to lock in Your Final Penance, but her leg would not cooperate. Mil was able to roll away and stood up and tried again for a figure four, but Stacy countered again into an inside cradle! However, at that moment, Sylvia emerged from under the ring, and with the official’s obstructed view, he could not see Sylvia push Mil over on top of Stacy reversing the pinfall, and Stacy was unable to kick out before 3.
Stacy looked stunned as Milisandre rolled out of the ring, catching a glimpse of Sylvia and instantly trying to chase her as Sylvia hopped the guardrail and departed as Stacy looked angry beyond belief.}
{There's a loud crash backstage as cameras rush to find out AJ has learned a little something from Pet. Pet stands at the far end of a table from her in catering.}
Pet: Calm your tits.
AJS: No, you requested this match? You took it upon yourself to book a match for me?
Pet: Yes, but...
{Amy Jo starts moving, pointing at Pet. Pet races to the other end of the table when it's clear AJ is on her way to her.}
AJS: You do not have authority to just make matches for me! What gives you the right!
Pet: I know, and I'm sure there's a tiny part of me that's sorry nestled deep inside me. But what's the big deal? You're both performers here, aren't you? Surely you'd be meeting one another eventually.
{Pet races around the table to avoid being grabbed by AJ.}
AJS: I'm not - not! - here to fight your battles or solve your problems.
Pet: Who said you're dealing with my problems? You certainly didn't, you spent all that time talking about your stupid aunt or whatever.
{Amy Jo comes right at her this time. Pet quickly hurries in behind a few chairs.}
Pet: Should've said to calm your legs, at least you got those.
{Once more Amy Jo comes at her and Pet crawls under a few tables to safety.}
Pet: Why are you so pissed?
AJS: Because this isn't right. What you did was so wrong on so many levels! Pet, I love you, but this is not what you do. I'm not some kind of - of - I'm not a hired hit man to get revenge for you!
{Chairs crash to the ground as Amy Jo knocks them down to get closer to Pet.}
AJS: This is my career. What if I get hurt? Huh? Then what?
Pet: You won't get hurt.
AJS: Probably true, but the bigger issue here is that you can't do shit without my permission. That's why I'm angry! I'm getting even more pissed off that you're running away from me.
{Pet crawls under another table and more chairs go flying.}
Pet: I don't like when you yell.
AJS: I have every right to yell right now.
Pet: Are you - are you going to sell me, too?
{AJ stops dead in her tracks, holding a chair in mid-air.}
AJS: What?
{Pet whimpers.}
AJS: You said that wasn't true, that it was a just a joke…
Pet: What if it wasn't?
AJS: Okay… Then we'd have bigger problems.
{Pet moves away as AJ puts down the chair and leans down under the table.}
AJS: Stop right there and talk to me…
Pet: What if she did sell me?
AJS: Then that's basically selling another human being and that's not okay.
Pet: Would you beat her up? You said that if - if it was true you'd smash her head into a wall…
AJS: Well, that's true. I would. But Pet, I don't know if you're lying to me or not. You have a tendency to tell some pretty big lies.
Pet: I know I do.
AJS: And what happened to the boy who cried wolf?
Pet: He gotten eaten by a wolf…
AJS: Exactly. Now come out of there and talk to me.
Pet: Are you gonna stop yelling?
AJS: Haven't I already stopped yelling?
Pet: Yes.
AJS: See… Now c’mon, you gotta get ready. We can talk more.
{Pet crawls out from under the table and right into AJ’s arms. She, of course, gives AJ a squeeze on her ass and rubs her breasts across AJ’s chest. Smyth shakes her head. They both walk out of the backstage cafeteria area, leaving a mess behind them.}
{The start of “Qu*er” brings fans to their feet. Not in a manner of cheering, but more out of curiosity as the Naughty Girls, Katalina and Katie, make their way through the entrance accompanied by not only Candi but Jessika and a new blond haired girl as well. Katalina walks with a purpose at the front of the ground holding tightly to Candi's leash as the endowed blond crawls along next to her Mistress wearing, aside from some fur lined outfit, a ball gag with holes and a upside down Y style strap running along her face making it look as though the lion has been muzzled. Katie walks alongside her Mistress' right while Jessika keeps to the left happily skipping along as in behind the new blond keeps a steady following pace.}
Duke King: Naughty Girls are out and they aren't alone.
Troy Franklin: Well we can tell who a fair majority of them are, no idea about the woman in the back though.
Duke King: She's wearing one of Katalina's collars. Also, doesn't look like Candi got off easy from her, shall we say, efforts during Katalina's match with Kenzi Grey.
Sky Sparks: As she shouldn't. She cost Kat the match. One of the most important matches of that woman's career!
{Once the troupe has come to ringside, Kat passes the leash off to the blond and continues up the stairs while Jessika crawls her way up to the apron holding open the ropes for her Mistress. She gets a pat atop the head for her troubles as Jessika looks toward Katie gesturing her in as well. There's a moment of hesitance until Katie accepts entering the ring followed up by Jessika while Candi and her new leash holder remain on the outside watching as their collective Mistress is handed the mic. Once the music dies out, Kat turns to the fans.}
Katalina Star: So as I'm sure you all know I was once more left empty going into a major match for my career. Kenzi, that night, proved she was the better person and I was made proud of her. Proud of her abilities, proud of her efforts, and most certainly proud of just how far she went with that victory. She really ran with it straight into that brick wall, didn't she?
{Kat laughs a little at her own joke before turning out of the ring to Candi and the blond gesturing down at this.}
Katalina Star: This is Honey, by the way. My sort of contingency plan to make certain that my pet doesn't become too feral again. Think of Honey...as my lion tamer.
{Liking the sound of that, Kat turns from the two as Honey takes a deep breath tugging Candi in closer.}
Katalina Star: Now, with my events of the other week out of the way we can move on to more current matters. The two of you,
{She says turning toward Katie and Jessika pointing between them.}
Katalina Star: Before your match I told the both of you how that was to be it. How things were not going to continue for the two of you like this afterward. So, with that said, I want the two of you to shake hands and put this pettyness behind yourselves.
{Jessika is all too eager to follow Kat's command shooting out a hand to Katie giving it a little wag.}
Katalina Star: Katie...
{Kat begins to warn as Katie finally brings her hand out only for it to be snatched by Jessika for an extra over exaggerated shake before she brings the brunette in for a hug looking directly at Kat as she does earning another pat atop her head.}
Katalina Star: Good girl. But if you're excited by that, you're definitely going into orbit over this.
{Jessika lets go of Katie and turns toward Kat tilting her head watching as her Mistress turns back to the crowd.}
Katalina Star: Be it known here, with all in attendance acting as witnesses, that I, Katalina Star, formally invite Jessika Hyde into the Naughty Girls.
{There's barely a moment after Kat says that before Jessika pounces herself up over her Mistress' back peppering the side of her face with loving kisses as outside Honey and Candi give applause and Katie strains to remain indifferent to the announcement.}
Troy Franklin: So...I guess the Naughty Girls are now three strong.
Sky Sparks: Are you sure? Are you sure Jessika isn't just reacting to something she thought she saw?
{Kat manages to calm Jessika down and turns only to get another hug from the newest Naughty Girl. Luckily, Kat's able to return this one as she strokes the back of Jessika's head whispering something in her ear before stepping back sliding out her foot.}
Katalina Star: We are stronger,
{She says as Jessika licks her lips diving down to her knees as Katie, with arms folded, watches and grips her bicep tightly.}
Katalina Star: We are united,
{Once more Jessika licks her lips as she makes a crawl toward her Mistress' boot while Katie watches on.}
Katalina Star: We are--
Sky Sparks: Interrupted by Dynasty.
{Skye announces to the viewers at home as both Kayla and Christy blast their way through Honey and Candi getting into the ring. Katie barely has time to unfold her arms before she's grabbed by the hair and kicked in the stomach courtesy of Christy moments before she tosses the Naughty Girl from the ring. In behind, Jessika feels the toe of Kayla's boot strike across the side of her head as she's punted onto her back and quickly grabbed up before being swung around and thrown out as well. With them gone, Dynasty turn toward the lonely Naughty Girl and begin to approach.}
Duke King: Dynasty has quickly cleared house leaving Katalina all alone!
Troy Franklin: What are they even doing here? Why did they bring this fight?
{With nowhere to go, Kat swings for Kayla only to have her arm caught. She's then kneed in the gut and sent toward Christy who nails her with her swinging reverse STO, Full Throttle. With Katalina down, both members of Dynasty look upon her and then to the crowd. They don't stop to celebrate as this was clearly just a beginning of things and instead make their way out through the ropes and toward the back.}
{The match began with Sam and Angelica the two locking up and Sam shoving Angelica back. The locked up again, same result. Angelica quickly tagged Ashley, and Ashley gave it a try, and she took was shoved back. Ashley got up but instead of attempting the lock up again, Ashley quickly kicked Sam in the mid-section and began using clubbing blows, bringing Sam to a knee. Ashley lead her to the corner where Angelica was waiting and tagged in, and the duo hit a nice double suplex before Angelica covered, but Sam quickly kicked out, even before two. Angelica pulled Sam up and tried to body slam her, but Sam slipped down Angie’s back, clasped her hands around Angie’s waist and hit a German suplex. Ashley charged in, and she was caught and hit with a t-bone suplex. Sam got up and ran through Angie and Ashley with a double clothesline and then tagged Kate, who quickly went to the top rope and Sam launched her across the ring onto Angie and Ashley with a cross-body! Angelica and Ashley rolled to the floor to regroup.
Angelica slowly re-entered the ring and demanded Kate step back. Angelica then began to stretch and warm up as if there wasn’t a match happening. However, she suckered Kate in and drove a knee into her mid-section. Angelica then quickly hit a scissors kick and dropped Kate, before hitting the ropes and landing with all her weight across Kate’s chest with a senton. Angelica quickly tagged Ashley in, holding Kate in place as Ashley came off the top rope with a double axe handle. Kate went down and Ashley hit a standing moonsault, which only resulted in a two count. Ashley then stood and dropped an elbow before standing again and hitting a vertical suplex on Kate before covering again, but again Kate kicked out. Ashley again tagged Angelica who came in and as Kate made it to her knees, Angelica started hitting hard kicks to the chest of Kate. She aimed her last kick for Kate’s head, but Kate ducked and tried to lock in a rear naked choke on Angelica, but Ashley quickly tagged in and pulled Kate off of Angie with and went for a superman punch, but Kate dodged and Angie took the blow! Kate then scrambled to make the tag but Ashley just managed to cut Kate off and dropped her with a European uppercut. Ashley then drug Kate into position and looked like she was going for the Cr-Ash Landing [Moonsault] but Kate moved! Kate again crawled toward Sam to make the tag, but This time Angelica made the save, pulling Kate away, until Kate nailed her with an enziguri and finally tagged Sam!
Sam ran wild on both Angelica and Ashley, giving them both a German and belly to belly suplexes. Both Angie and Ashley rolled to the floor to regroup again, but Sam connected with the Ode to Mexico onto both women on the floor. Sam then tosses Angelica into the ring and connected with Victory Drop Alpha [trapper keeper bomb] on her going for the cover, but Ashley was still technically legal. Ashley got back on the apron and hit a springboard clothesline on Sam but Sam kicked out of the cover at 2. Ashley then tagged Angelica back in, who went for a roundhouse kick on Sam, but she ducked and shoved Angelica forward, right into a Silence is Golden from Kate! The referee ushered Kate out of the ring, and Ashley back into the ring and hit the End Game [Pedigree] on Sam. Ashely threw Angelica on top and the ref turned and counted 3.}
{After Kate’s match we are able to see the petite wrestler making her way to the backstage area/ She is all smiles as she is about to walk into her locker room where she catches somebody standing in the hallway. That somebody is none other than Milisandre Crowthorne. Kate snukes as she turns her attention over to the woman and folds her arms as she looks right at her.}
Kate: “So I take it you must really be a big fan of me aren’t you?! I hope you heard the message loud and clear tonight. I am a cornerstone of this business. I have the Chaos Championship in my sights which means I am not going to take any shit from anyone. Not Kenzi, not Sarah, not any of the #CoolKids and certainly not you. So I advise you get out of my face before I am forced to put you in your place. Bet it would look pretty embarrassing to get your ass handed to you by a 5’2 110 pound petite woman.”
{Kate chuckles as she keeps her eyes firmly on the raven haired woman in front of her. Mil smirks and rolls her eyes. She looks Kate up and down once, taking her measure up close.}
Milisandre: “You might have been someone around here once. But here lately you have been less than impressive. You are just like everyone else in LAW and even on Social Media. You are obsessed with us #CoolKids. We are all that anyone can seem to talk about. You, Tolson, Stacy, Smyth. We are all the talk of the town. I know it must suck to not be the center of attention anymore. But you, like, just have to deal with it.”
{An almost sinister grin creeps onto the bored looking woman’s face.}
Milisandre: “It’s almost laughable that you think I could ever be intimidated by you. I train with Sarah almost every day. If I’m not intimidated by her. There is, like, no way you could be anything more than a buzzing gnat.”
{Mil took a step towards Kate. She raises her chin to look down on the slightly smaller woman.Kate however just chuckles as she looks up into the eyes of the woman.}
Kate: “What is really laughable is the fact that you think you out of all people could scare me. I have stood toe to toe with Gabby Camacho and as we saw at Queen of the Ring she gave the business to both of the main members of your precious #CoolKids in the same night. I have been in the ring with Amy Jo Smyth and the two of us fought in a hellacious submissions match that was nominated for match of the year. I been in the ring with Oni, Fujiko, Mackenzie Roberts, names that make who you mentioned an absolute joke. I am the cornerstone of this company. The road to get to anywhere eventually goes through me. You wanna stick your chin out? Don’t be surprised if you find it getting checked. It’s as simple as that.”
{Kate also offers another chuckle.}
Kate: “Or maybe just maybe you might want to feel one of my many submissions? Perhaps my seated fujiwara armbar that I call Shipwrecked or perhaps my Triangle Choke the Siren’s Song. Whatever is your favourite flavour I am sure I will have something that best suits you. That’s a promise by the way.”
{Mil licks her smirking lips as she continues to look down at Kate.}
Milisandre: “Funny that you think the people I mentioned that are obsessed with us are jokes compared to who you have faced. Seeing as how we both named Smyth and I mentioned the person holding the title you have eyes on. Which, like, I don’t get since you are obviously so focused on me. I guess you take enough shots, fists or belt buckles, to the head you start to develop brain damage.”
{Mil slightly raises her chin up a little higher.}
Milisandre: “The only thing I’ve seen you do since I showed up is run your cock sucker and get beat like your Ray Rice’s wife. I’ve had the perfect shot open to you for a while now and all you’ve done is run your mouth. I guess, like, if you want something done right…”
{Mil catches Kate with right hook, catching her square on the jaw. Obviously caught off guard by the blow Kate stumbles back and Mil is quick on the attack. She lands a few shots to Kate’s body before Kate starts firing shots of her own. The two trade blows for a few moments before Mil clips Kate’s jaw. She capitalizes on it shoving her into the wall hand before grabbing the front of Kate’s ring attire and tossing her to the ground. Mil drops on top of her and starts to pummel the smaller woman, a fury in Mil’s eyes that has yet to be seen. After a few solid punches get through Kate’s defense security come running down the hall. Mil wraps her hands around Kate’s throat sneering down at her. The closest security guards grab ahold of Mil, trying to pull her off of Kate. Another one steps up and pries Mil’s hands off of Kate’s throat as the other two pull her away. They drag Mil away as medical staff rush in to check on Kate.
Kate breathes heavily as blood seems be flowing from her mouth. She grimaces in pain. Her face is blue from the way she was getting choked out. She leans forward as the staff checks on her. She rises up as she finds a folding chair and sprints down the hallway. She throws the chair at Mil and it catches her in the head. Without regard for her body Kate jumps over the guards and onto Mil taking her to the ground delivering some punches of her own to the woman’s face.}
Kate: Wanna see how chaotic I can get BITCH?!
{Mil takes the hits to the face, seeming to grin in between the punches. She is able to get an arm up to block one side of her face. She is able to grab one of kate’s wrists with her free hand and stretches her arm over her head. This causes Kate to lean forward into a headbutt from Mil followed shortly by a headlock. Mil wrestles her way back on top of Kate and throws a few shots into her ribs. Security finally recovers from the surprise of Kate’s attack. They are able to pull Mil off of her. But Mil is able to get away and swiftly kick Kate in the face before security can seperate the women. Mil walks backward, security on either side of her with a hand held out in front of her. She grins and wipes some blood from her mouth.}
Milisandre: “Don’t threaten me with a good time bitch. Any time you are, like, feeling froggy enough to jump. Feel free. I’ll gladly step over your broken and Decayed body.”
{She turns and let’s security escort her back towards the #CoolKids locker room. Security stands in Kate’s way as she is on the ground resting against a locker. Blood gushing from her nose now. Kate doesn’t attempt to get back up as she remains on the ground for a few more moments. Mil may have won their little skirmish tonight but it wouldn’t be the last that she would see of Kate.}
"Stand on the box, stomp your feet, get clappin’
Got a real good feelin’ somethin’ bad about to happen"
{The Coors Events Center in Boulder, Colorado blows up as “Somethin’ Bad” by Miranda Lambert and Carrie Underwood starts playing. The source of their joy shows up in short order as the Boardwalk Angels walk out onto the stage, pausing at the top of the ramp. Zoey Madigan-Star, Farrah Cornett and Crystal Millar each take a moment to hold up their respective championships, getting another pop from the packed house before they drape their belts over their shoulders and make their way down the ramp toward the ring.}
Beth Harris: Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the LAW Tag Team and Marquee Champions… the BOARDWALK ANGELS!
{The threesome are not as pristine as their name would indicate, however; Crystal walks with a barely-disguised limp, Zoey has a bandage covering the fourteen stitches in her forehead along with her eyepatch and even Farrah is moving somewhat gingerly after her big dive. But Queen of the Ring was a golden night for the young trio and the discomfort isn’t affecting the smiles on their faces. Zoey holds the ropes for her partners before entering the ring herself, all three of the Angels going up on the turnbuckles to hold up their gold once again as “Somethin’ Bad” starts to fade out. Farrah accepts the mic from Beth Harris, but instead of lifting it up she passes it to Zoey.}
Duke King: So, before Queen of the Ring you called the Angels a flash-in-the-pan team, Skye. Still got that opinion?
Skye Sparks: Credit where it’s due: I didn’t think the Angels had it in them, Crystal included, to come out of the pay-per-view as champions. But I was proven wrong. I’m not a fan, but they earned some respect.
Troy Franklin: They’re getting that and more from the fans here in Boulder tonight. But it’s clear that they’re still wearing the wounds of war.
Duke King: Hasn’t affected their mood, Troy.
{Giving the fans a moment to chill, Zoey smiles and gestures to herself and her partners with the microphone before speaking.}
Zoey Madigan-Star: So… how do we look?
{Crystal can’t hide her smirk, hitching the Marquee Championship a little higher on her shoulder while Farrah dusts off her half of the tag titles. The champions are dressed to the nines tonight, but that hardly seems to be what Zoey is referring to.}
Zoey Madigan-Star: Anyone in this business can talk a good game. If you can’t manage that much then you’re in the wrong game. Even a neophyte to professional wrestling like me knows that. But do you know what’s even more impressive than talking yourself up in front of the camera or on social media? Backing up what you say. And at Queen of the Ring, each and every one of the Boardwalk Angels did just that. Dynasty? You put up a bloody, violent, brutal fight…
{She pauses to peel back the bandages, showing the stitches across her head courtesy of a pizza slicer wielded by Kayla Winters. There’s a collective ‘ohhhh’ from the fans in Boulder as the camera tightens up on Zoey’s face.}
Zoey Madigan-Star: ...one that we certainly won’t forget. Same goes for Amirai Reilley. But Queen of the Ring belonged to the Boardwalk Angels and for the first time since our genesis, every member has gold over their shoulder. That, my friends, is something to be proud of.
Skye Sparks: Sure, rub it in...
Troy Franklin: It was one of the more brutal matches I’ve ever seen here in LAW.
Duke King: Part of me, though? Hopes it isn’t the last time. Sometimes you need a good, bloody, knock-down-and-drag-out fight to settle things properly.
Troy Franklin: I can get behind that.
{Farrah takes the microphone at this point, tapping it against her title before putting it near to her lips.}
Farrah Cornett: We heard your comments, Dynasty, and something needs to be made clear to you two. You said that you weren’t done with us. Fact is, we’re done with you. Three times you’ve had the chance to knock us off and you couldn’t do it. Consider yourselves at the back of the line. Especially now.
{The Crimson Angel gestures toward the backstage area before she continues.}
Farrah Cornett: Because the last time I checked? There’s a lot of new talent signed on to LAW lately as well as a couple new pairings. The Sugay Sisters, Team Kickass, Ashley Williams and Angelica Vaughn… and more on the way. We’re the kind of team that thrives on new opponents and new challenges. You don’t get better in this business without facing a wide variety of challengers. And as we stand here tonight, 196 days into our reign? Our statement that we’re the best tag team in Ladies All-Star Wrestling continues to get stronger. But there’s always room for improvement and we won’t stop fighting to get better and better.
{Farrah, stepping back next to Zoey, tosses the microphone to Crystal, who steps up to say her own piece.}
Crystal Millar: Zoey put it best: anyone can talk a good game. Not everyone can back it up. It was a long road to walk, getting to this point, but I made it and now I’m forging a new path as the LAW Marquee Champion. And that starts later tonight against Gabby Camacho.
{The newly-christened Iron Angel locks her attention on the camera.}
Crystal Millar: Congratulations on winning Queen of the Ring, Gabby. I mean that. You busted your butt for it and that’s the kind of fight I can respect. But I fought just as hard to become Marquee Champion and you’re going to get a big taste of what I’m made of later tonight.
{Farrah and Zoey step up next to Crystal, belts out in front, the camera drawing back a bit to get them all in the shot.}
Crystal Millar: Pain won’t stop an angel.
Farrah Cornett: Pressure puts an angel at their best.
Zoey Madigan-Star: And angels are already ready to defend what’s theirs… so get ready to fly.
{“Somethin’ Bad” starts up again as the Angels hold up their belts one more time before leaving the ring, meeting the hands of the fans around ringside and along the ramp before heading backstage.}
Duke King: With every win they get a bit more confident and a little better at what they do in that ring. Farrah and Zoey have rubbed off a bit on Crystal, too.
Skye Sparks: Don’t know whether that’s a good thing or not. If nothing else, Crystal has some people who won’t turn on her now.
Troy Franklin: Good friends are hard to come by in this business.
{Pausing at the top of the ramp, the Angels take a bow before disappearing behind the curtain.}
{Backstage Crystal could be seen putting on her wrestling boots. She stands up as she walks over to the locker room mirror and twirls around in front of it. She offers a grin as she grabs her Marquee Championship and places it over her shoulder. She is all smiles as she places a pair of blinding shaders on top of her head. She giggles as she actually starts to speak to the mirror.}
Crystal: “Mirror mirror on the wall who is the best Marquee Champion of them all?!”
{Crystal rolls her eyes as she looks at the mirror furiously.}
Crystal: “What do you mean MACKENZIE ROBERTS?! Okay… What about the second greatest?! Nyako really but… but I beat her! Can I at least get third on the list?! What’s that it’s Kate Steele… You know I think you are broken mirror because just look at me… Don’t I have all the makings of what a champion should look like?!”
AJS: Did you know that Narcissus was so in love with his own reflection that he lost the will to live because he knew that his reflection could never love him back? He committed suicide.
{Crystal immediately drops her belt as she yanks it off of the floor and quickly turns around looking back at the World Champion that is standing behind her.}
Crystal: Sorry about that… I was ummm…. Ummm…. Okay so sometimes old habits are really hard to let go of. Look I am just happy to be a champion that’s all.
AJS: Uh huh…
Crystal: Hey don’t you uh huh me! Besides you and I have some stuff that we need to talk about. First and foremost congrats on making me give up a few weeks ago when we had that six women match. I tried to fight the ummmm Eat Me Out but it was really hard to not give in… Wow that didn’t sound right at all. Look what I am trying to say it was an honor being in the ring with you. Maybe down the road at some point you and I could have a one on one session… Match… Yess match! That’s the word I was looking for.
AJS: I'm sure that's exactly what you meant…
Crystal: It is!!! Look on a more serious note you and I are the top two champions in the company right now. We have a duty to defend our house. To keep others away who feel like we aren’t credible champions. People who like to take shot after shot at us because they are jealous that they can’t be are where we are. It took you like 7 months to be in the position you are and before that it was a ten year drought of not being without a World Champion to ultimately get in that spot.
{Crystal looks back at the mirror looking at her reflection before she looks back at AJS.}
Crystal: And for me it was a long four year journey to ultimately get to where I am at. We aren’t going to let these nobbs just come onto our territory and take what we worked so hard to achieve right?
AJS: Three years, actually...
Crystal: I thought you said it was ten!!!! I thought I remember you saying so unless I was confused?!
AJS: Ten years without a World title. Three years without a title, period. So, yeah, it's been a while, to say the least.
{Smyth smiles and nods.}
AJS: I'm not worried about the newcomers or what they have to say about me or to me. It just means I'm doing something right. I'll take credit for that roster explosion, even if it is because I have a target on my back, even if it's because of some kind of cult-clique bullshit at the behest of their leader. But you know what, I don't care. I have other things to worry about. They want attention and I ain't gonna give it. It's a lot more fun to watch them have a meltdown when I ignore them.
Crystal: Well I don’t have that luxury because one of them has their eyes set on me and because Kateykins couldn’t take care of business I have to actually deal with her. It’s all good because she will finally get the competition she’s been dying for. She’s going to get someone who actually answers back, and I won’t hesitate to put her in her place. One step at a time one day at a time. What’s a Red Queen when you are dealing with the SILVER SCREEN QUEEN!!!!
{Crystal smiles in return looking back at Smyth. Smyth just nods slowy.}
Crystal: I know we have had our problems in the past but I want you to know I respect you and I hope the feeling is mutual. It’s up to us to weed the weak ones out. We got this AJS and if there is ever a time where you need backup for anything I want you to know I got your back. I would offers you a handshake but I really don’t like people touching my hands so I will wish you well in your match tonight in a way that you could understand.
{Crystal walks over to AJS and slaps her ass with a grin.}
Crystal: Go get em tonight tiger. Good game! Maybe later I might just bring a box of sprinkled pink frosted donuts to your hotel or something. That is what you are into right?!
{Smyth nods.}
AJS: Um, yeah. Well, the last time someone tried to deliver baked goods to me, it didn't end well.
Crystal: As if I would do something to food… You need to have more faith in me than that… Anyway good luck out there tonight… As far as I go? I need all the luck I got Camacho and it’s always a tough match.
{Crystal seems nervous as she glances at her reflection to make sure she’s ready.}
AJS: Thanks… Good luck, too. Rough her up a little for me.
{AJ winks and turns on her heel to make an escape.}
{Crystal and Gabby Camacho are both standing in the ring as the referee calls for the bell. Crystal bounces around for a bit as Gabby just keeps her eyes on the speedy star. Gabby is slow and steady as she emerges out of the corner and that’s when Crystal decides to sprint right towards the Queen of the Ring winner. The Marquee Champion baseball slides right between Camacho’s legs and ends up on the other side of her. Crystal tries to show off some of her wrestling ability as she wraps her arms around Ccamacho’s waist thinking of nailing a German Suplex but instead Gabby fights back as she throws an elbow to the face of Crystal. It connects but Crystal doesn’t let go of the hold as she goes for the German. Camacho is able to flip out of it as she lands on her feet right behind Crystal. As soon as Crystal turns around she is met with Camacho grabbing her and sending her right down to the mat with a very quick snap suplex. Crystal’s back hits the mat with a loud thud, and Crystal grimaces in pain as Camacho makes it to her feet.
Crystal is slow to make it to her feet but Camacho grabs Crystal by the hair to force her back up. She whips Crystal against the turnbuckle and when Crystal is on the rebound Camacho lifts Crystal up into the air as she goes for a Samoan Drop but Crystal is able to grab a hold of Camacho’s head in the air as she sends her down to the mat with a ddt. The crowd seems to be in awe as Crystal throws an arm up over Camacho for a pin fall. Camacho manages to kick out at the count of two and that’s when Crystal makes it back to her feet. Camacho does the same as they are both standing on their feet. Crystal quickly sprints towards the ropes.
Once she gets to them she uses them as springs and leaps backwards towards Gabby. Camacho is able to move out of the way and Crystal is able to roll on the floor. She tries to push herself back up and the moment she does that is when Gabby runs at her and nails her with a very stiff discus clothesline. Crystal flips head over heels as she lands on the mat. She doesn’t bother with a pin as Crystal favors her neck. Instead Camacho watches Crystal get back to her feet and that’s when Gabby gets behind Crystal. She jumps up grabs Crystal’s head from behind as she tries to plant her knees into Crystal’s back but instead Crystal manages to grab the ropes as Camacho falls to the ground instead.}
Crystal: You think I would let you do my own move against me?!
{The backstabber is all for naught as Crystal watches Camacho trying to sit up. Crystal runs towards the ropes as she goes for a seated drop kick. It connects flush as Camacho is forced to go back down to the mat. Crystal kips up to her feet as she keeps her eyes on the prone woman. Crystal explodes as she does a handspring before doing a cartwheel and does a backflip right on top of Gabby nailing her with her Smell The Roses. She remains on top of Gabby for a pin fall! Crystal only gets a two count as Gabby finds a way to kick out. Crystal looks at the referee wondering why it’s not a three count. She instead looks at the top of the ropes as she has one thought on her mind. Nailing Camacho with her 630 Corkscrew Senton.
Crystal makes it to the very top. She makes the Lights, Camera, Action motion. Before she leaps off however Camacho is able to run into the ropes as Crystal lands split legged against the ropes. Crystal seems to be hurting as Camacho makes it to the very top of the ropes. Camacho lifts Crystal onto her shoulders going for a Killzone as she shows shades of how she finished Crystal off at Night of Glory. Crystal fall however fights it as she fights her way out of Camacho’s grip. They both are fighting at the very top of the ropes and they both come crashing down inside the ring.
The crowd are all on their feet as there is a mixed reaction for both women. Camacho is on her feet as is Crystal. Crystal tries to sneak in her flashing lights kick but Camacho was ready for it. Instead she ducks underneath it as she grabs Crystal by the head. She signals for her Field Promotion but Crystal drives some punches into Camacho’s side to break it up. Crystal is now in front of Camacho. She reaches behind to grab Camacho’s head as she has only one thought on her mind. Nailing her with her “That’s A Wrap” Crystal jumps up trying to flip over Camacho but Camacho backs up as Crystal lands right in front of Camacho.
Gabby is on the prowl as she grabs Crystal and nails her directly into the mat with her Battle Scar (The stroke) Crystal is laid out spread eagle. Camacho turns Crystal over and gets the three count.
The referee raises Gabby’s arm in the air. Camacho sighs as she looks at Crystal who struggles back up. Gabby Camacho watches Crystal grab her belt and Camacho extends a hand out. Crystal slaps it in return as the crowd goes nuts.}
Duke King: What a match between these two women.
Skye Sparks: Sportsmanship sucks!
Troy Franklin: A big win for Camacho here and that should build up some momentum for her as she looks forward to fighting AJS at Night of Glory.
{Camacho walks up the ramp and just as Crystal is about to leave the ring she is immediately jumps from behind by Sarah Lacklan. Crystal covers her head in pain as Sarah just rains down the punches on Crystal. Crystal slowly gets up to her feet as Sarah picks up the Marquee title and stares at it for a few moments. She sees Crystal struggling to her feet and without hesitation she blasts Crystal as hard as she can in the head with it. Crystal is laid out on the floor as Sarah smiles to an ovation of boos. She looks at the championship and down at Crystal. She puts a single foot on top of her as she raises the Marquee Championship high into the air. She lays the belt across Crystal mouthing that it will be hers soon as she leaves to an ovation of boos. Crystal grimaces in pain as she can only watch Sarah grinning at her from on top of the ramp.}
{At the sound of the bell, Kat and AJ meet up in the middle of the ring to share a few words before locking up. Pet begins to smack the apron in support of AJ while Candi, still “muzzled”, kneels calmly by her tamer, Honey, in their shared Mistress' corner. AJ is able to take control locking Kat into a side headlock bringing her toward the corner where she shoves her in and delivers a couple of hard chops. Though when Pet jumps up on the apron demanding she do more, it works more to distract AJ away as she turns to shout the redhead back down. This allows Kat to grab the champion and push her into the corner for a couple of toe kicks and a snapmare following it up with a sudden rear chinlock. Candi calmly applauds her Mistress as Kat cinches the hold in tighter trying to draw out as much air from AJ as possible before the champ manages to first bridge herself up then turn into the dominatrix slamming her down with a northern lights suplex earning her a simple one count.
Pet continues slapping against the canvas in annoyance pointing at the prone Katalina as AJ works herself up to a vertical base bringing Kat along with her. Following a few toe kicks of her own, AJ delivers a scoop slam in the middle of the ring and drops an elbow down on Kat's chest. As Pet shouts for the elbow to be pointier, Candi rushes to the apron from her end only to be yanked back down by Honey for a quick scolding. AJ comes back up to her feet bringing Kat's arm between both holding it steady as she drops her knee down against the domina's shoulder causing her to cry out. AJ then turns Kat onto her front and, after straddling her, applies the same arm into a hammerlock as Kat struggles for the ropes with her free hand. It takes some work, and some crawling, but Katalina manages to grab hold of the bottom rope giving AJ a five count to let go, which she does at two. Backing up a bit, AJ gives Kat some room to get back to her feet doing her best to ignore the constant slamming of Pet's fists over the apron.
Once Kat is to her knees, AJ moves in bringing her up the rest of the way dropping her back into the middle with a suplex followed by a few mounted punches. She then steps back grabbing hold of Kat's leg twisting around for a grapevine only to be kicked away by the Naughty Girl toward the ropes where she manages to steady herself. Turning just as Kat is getting back to her feet, she charges through the domina with a stiff clothesline and then picks her back up looking to slam her face first into the turnbuckle. Kat plants a foot on the middle turnbuckle countering throwing AJ into the corner instead following it up with some shoulder thrusts into her midsection. Kat then whips AJ to the other side following right after so she can slam her knee into the champion's gut. Kat repeats the process back to the corner by Candi and Honey burying her knee once more into AJ's stomach. Flipping AJ onto her back, Kat ascends to the middle ropes and jumps driving both elbows into the champ's gut as Candi continues to clap on the outside watching as her Mistress covers for a two.
With the momentum well on her side, Kat comes up to her feet bringing AJ along with her delivering her own scoop slam and her own falling elbow across the champ's sternum. Kat comes up to her feet bringing AJ up before planting the champs heads in between her legs. After hooking up both arms, and making AJ give a slight ass wiggle to the crowd, Kat flips her up and drops her back first across her knee. Kat smiles down at her muzzled lion giving her a chance to properly celebrate her Mistress as Pet practically rips the apron from her side of the ring shouting inside. Ignoring the redheads call, Kat brings AJ up to her feet and delivers a second scoop slam giving herself a slight bounce from the ropes for an added boost in her knee drop across AJ's sternum before going for another cover. This only gets a two count as Pet shouts on the outside pointing in Kat's corner. The ref, looking to see what has her so worked up, doesn't notice as Pet gets into the ring punting Kat across the head and pulls AJ overtop of her before leaving. When the ref realizes he's been duped into looking at a quiet and calm Candi/Honey combination, he turns seeing the pinfall and makes the count.
As AJ is announced the winner of the match, Pet hurries in to celebrate with the woman making certain it's her hand raising the champs arm and her foot triumphantly over the Naughty Girl's chest.}
{This has clearly not been the night for Katalina. Attacked after her celebratory message of Jessika being anointed into the Naughty Girls and then losing her potentially once in a lifetime chance against a world champion. She's definitely got plenty on her mind as she hurries through the hall, the still gagged Candi barely able to keep up with her leash as she follows her Mistress directly into what has been made Lucas Dupree's office.}
Katalina Star: Heel!
{Kat orders upon entering. Her eyes were on Lucas when the order was given so certainly some offense is taken by the CEO of the company. However, as he sees Candi obey the command and drop to her knees and lowering her head, he can certainly look past the outbreak from the Naughty Girl.}
Katalina Star: My apologies for the intrusion, but as I'm sure you know I haven't had the greatest of nights.
{Lucas knows, he's been watching. Then again he's kind of been watching everything. So he just clasps his hands together and allows the domina to speak.}
Katalina Star: Before things become too much, I'm wanting to deal with problems one at a time. First, Dynasty.
{Makes sense as Lucas tilts his chin up.}
Katalina Star: I want Kayla. If she has such a problem with my jokes about her then I'm going to make her see just how serious I am about them. That's why...
{Kat pauses and smirks some as Lucas arches up a brow.}
Katalina Star: Paddle on a pole match. If she doesn't like the spanking...too bad.
{Is Kat's excuse as Lucas looks down over his desk as though the proposal were right there in front of him. It isn't, he's just doing it because he needs a moment to sort things all out. When he's ready, he looks back up glancing quickly to Candi before focusing on the dominatrix herself.}
Lucas Dupree: Paddle on a pole match...
Katalina Star: Yes. I think it would be a hilarious idea.
{Kat laughs perhaps a little too much as Lucas just winds up shrugging his shoulders.}
Lucas Dupree: Not my kinda thing but fair enough.
Katalina Star: Thank you.
{Kat smiles and turns leaving giving the leash a sharp tug.}
Katalina Star: Come, pet!
{She commands sharply before she leaves with Candi crawling along in behind as Lucas shakes his head.}
Lucas Dupree: Takes all kinds...
