{Finally, shots of The Doc and Kate Steele}
Troy Franklin: And tonight, It's a match between two different competitors, one a rookie with championship pedigree, seeks to become the next in long line of family of champions.

Troy Franklin: Absolutely, it's going to be something else. But quickly Duke, of the 8 women in this tournament, only 1 can win obviously, so who do you have your money on?
Duke King: You know I'm not a betting man Troy, but I've got 5 bucks that says Nyako is going to take the whole thing!
Troy Franklin: You said you were NOT a betting man...
Duke King: Alright, you drive a hard bargin... 10 bucks.
Troy Franklin: ... Let's get this amazing night underway!
Beth Harris Ladies and Gentlemen this is the opening match of the first round, of the Queen of the Ring Tournament!
{“The Takedown” begins to play as Jenn walks out to the top of the ramp with her hands raised up in the air with devil horns. She’s head banging as she makes her way down the ramp and to the ring. She slides into ring and flashes the devil horns once more one the turnbuckles and hops down waiting for the match to begin.}
Troy Franklin: Jennifer Drew looking to make an impact here in LAW, and what a way she could do it, by winning this tournament!
Duke King: It would be the ultimate debut, but she's not going to have it easy.
{"Clint Eastwood" by The Gorillaz plays and Miyoko walks to the ring.}
Troy Franklin: And here we go. What a way to kick off the show!
{The bell sounds and Jenn and Miyoko size one another up. They go to lock up, but Miyoko hits a quick kick to the gut. Stunned, Jenn then takes a hard European uppercut, then a kick to the leg that knocks her to a knee, then a hard kick to the shoulder. Jenn shoots up shaking her arm out, but gets caught in a snap mare and then another hard kick to the back! Miyoko grabs the arm of Jenn and wrenches into an arm wringer. Miyoko then steps over the arm of Jenn and drives her down to the mat with a sitting reverse armbar. Miyoko then switches to a cross arm-breaker. Jenn then squirms and struggles and eventually her feet reach out and touch the ropes. Jenn rolls out of the ring clutching her shoulder.}
Troy Franklin: Miyoko has some nasty kicks, and seems to be focusing on the shoulder of Jennifer.
Duke King: Jennifer is very smart though, rolling outside to re-think her strategy here.
{Jenn rolls back in the ring and Miyoko is there to stomp her. Miyoko grabs Jenn by the hair and goes for an Irish whip, but Jenn reverses, and on the rebound catches Miyoko with an arm drag, Miyoko gets up and catches a dropkick for her troubles. Jenn gets up and drops an elbow on Miyoko before making the cover 1..…2….Miyoko kicks out. Jenn gets up and meets Miyoko as she gets up, and leans her against the rope. Jenn whips Miyoko in and ducks her head for a backdrop, but Miyoko counters with a running DDT! Jenn goes down and Miyoko makes the cover! 1…….2… Jenn kicks out. Miyoko waits on Jenn to get up and whips her into the corner. Miyoko charges, but Jenn gets the knee up to stop her. Jenn turns around, jumps on the middle turnbuckle and leaps backwards, landing on Miyoko with a beautiful moonsault! Jenn immediately gets up exits the ring, standing on the apron. She springboards into the ring as Miyoko stands up, catching her with a flush springboard forearm! Jenn makes the cover! 1…..2…..Miyoko rolls the shoulder!}
Troy Franklin: Impressive moves by both Jennifer and Miyoko, and Jennifer is now in control, as she has started to fly around a little bit.
Duke King: These two are pretty evenly matched, but Jennifer does have a lot more ariel tactics in her arsenal.
{Jenn tries to keep the momentum going as she waits for Miyoko to stand, Jenn runs into Miyoko with a shoulder block, but Miyoko stands her ground. She does it again, and gets the same result. Miyoko tells her to hit the ropes again, but when Jenn comes back, she gets a kick to the gut. Miyoko hits the ropes, looking for a clothesline, but Jenn ducks and takes Miyoko to the mat with an armbar takedown! Miyoko yells in pain as she scrambles towards the ropes, eventually grabbing them to save herself.}
Troy Franklin: Jennifer also has pretty good submission background, and she has focused on the shoulder as well.
Duke King: It's a little one-upsmanship out there. This tournament means a lot to these women, it can make careers!
{Jenn gets up and stomps the shoulder of Miyoko, trying to keep her down. Jenn waits for Miyko to get back up, and then charges for a clothes, but Miyoko ducks, and catches Jenn with a side kick right in the ribs. Doubled over, Jenn gets set up in powerbomb position, but Miyoko can’t lift her as she blocks. Miyoko starts delivering hard, clubbing forearms to the back of Jenn, and then lifts her, but Jenn counters and lands on her feet in front of Miyoko, but Miyoko instantly hits a step up enziguri that knocks Jenn loopy! Miyoko hooks her into suplex position and lifts her up, letting her fall behind her and hooking up a neckbreaker on the way down! Miyoko makes the cover! 1……2…. Jenn rolls the shoulder!}
Troy Franklin: Nice neckbreaker by Miyoko.
Duke King: More focus on that head and neck area.
{Miyoko instantly starts pounding on the shoulder of Jenn, and then attempts a crossface, but Jenn blocks and elbows Miyoko in the nose to break it up. Jenn gets to her feet, and again traps the arm of Miyoko, working on the shoulder. She leans Miyoko against the ropes and starts nailing some stiff forearms before hitting the rope to build momentum, on the rebound, Jenn notices Miyoko running towards her, and sticks her arm out for a clothesline, but Miyoko ducks. Miyoko continues to hit the ropes and comes back and Jenn leapfrogs her and turns to catch her with a nice powerslam! Jenn instantly stands up, steps over Miyoko and does a very nice standing moonsault! Jenn stays on top! 1…..2…. Miyoko barely gets out!}
Troy Franklin: Back and forth, and Jennifer ends up in control now.
Duke King: But as you said Troy, it's been back and forth all match!
{Jenn stands up and again steps out onto the apron. Miyoko slowly gets up, and Jenn springboards through the air, but Miyoko turns and jumps, catching Jenn right in the face with a kick!}
Troy Franklin: What a kick! Right in the jaw!
Duke King: That's the thing with these high risk moves, you more often then not leave too much to chance!
{Jenn is laid out on the mat, unmoving. Miyoko is still stunned as well. The ref begins his 10 count. 1……2…….3……4…….5…..…6…….7 And both women stir to their knees. Miyoko quickly picks up Jenn and prepares her for the Reeves Driver, but Jenn counters in mid-air into a bulldog! Jenn slowly makes the cover! 1……2….3NO! Miyoko barely, barely gets out.}
Troy Franklin: These two are really laying it out here!
Duke King: And this is just the first match!
{Jenn slowly gets to her feet, still woozy. Jenn then hits the ropes as she notices Miyoko is getting up. Jenn runs at Miyoko and attempts a head scissors, but Miyoko blocks, holding her in tombstone position. Jenn then pushes off Miyoko’s legs, whirls around and PLANTS Miyoko with a DDT! Jenn gets up and hurries to the outside, she climbs to the top rope, balances before leaping off with the Rocked Out! [Corkscrew 720 Splash] Jenn stays on top for the cover 1…..2……3!}
Beth Harris Here is your winner .... Jennifer Drew!
Troy Franklin: Jennifer Drew picks up a hard, hard fought victory!
Duke King: She got tested early, you'll have to wonder what's she's got left.
{Jenn slowly rises and the ref raises her hand. She nods and raises her hand to the crowd before slowly exiting the ring.}
Troy Franklin: Jennifer Drew becomes the first to advance in the Queen of the Ring, and she will face either Keira Fisher or Gabrielle Salinas!
Duke King: And that match is coming up next!
Beth Harris Ladies and gentlemen the next match is also part of the Queen of the Ring Tournament!
{The arena speakers play 'Vanity' and the crowd starts booing when Gabriella Salinas appears on the stage. She mockingly blows a kiss to the crowd, just to draw some more heat out of them. She confidently walks to the ring, having no reason to interact with the crowd. She enters the ring and leans against the corner, giving the fans a "hand to the face" signal while she waits for the match to start.}
Troy Franklin: Gabrielle Salinas has not been shy letting her feelings be known leading up to this tournament. She's got to be a favorite after her impressive win over Jenny Williams.
Duke King: She's been talking a big game, and this is her chance to back it up.
{"Sinner" by Drowning pool plays and Keira Fisher walks to the ring}
Troy Franklin: Keira Fisher not that long ago was a world title contender, so this will be no walk in the park for Gabrielle. But at the same time, Keira cannot take Gabrielle lightly.
{Gabrielle jump starts the match as Keira is waiting for the bell to ring with a kick to the gut. The bell sounds as Gabrielle hits a couple of forearms before clamping on a headlock. Keira shoots Gabrielle off, and on the rebound, Gabrielle runs Keira over with a shoulder tackle. Gabrielle quickly goes for an early pin. 1… Keira kicks out. Keira hurries to her feet to collect her bearings. They lock up again, and Gabrielle quickly goes behind Keira in a waistlock and takes Keira to the mat, before floating into a front facelock. Gabrielle gator rolls Keira onto her back, and goes for another cover! 1…. Keira kicks out again. Keira again tries to scramble, but Gabrielle moves in and kicks Keira in the back, and then begins hitting some clubbing forearms to the back for good measure. Keira uses the corner to get up and Gabrielle moves in with a forearm, but Keira fights back with one of her own. Gabrielle responds with a boot to the gut, but again Keira throws a forearm that connects and stuns Gabrielle. Gabrielle then drives a knee into Keira’s gut to stun her, and tries for a whip out of the corner, but Keira reverses. However, as Keira reverses, Gabrielle charges and mows Keira down with a back elbow.}
Troy Franklin: And Gabrielle Salinas is all over Keira Fisher here in the early going.
Duke King: That's what you have to do if you want to win, Troy.
{Gabrielle smirks as she grabs Keira’s leg, and attempts a move, but Keira kicks her away and gets back to her feet. Gabrielle charges in, but Keira ducks and begins hitting forearms in response. Keira goes for a kick, but Gabrielle catches her foot and tries to throw it to spin Keira around, but Keira keeps her balance and nails Gabrielle with her free leg in the shoulder, sending Gabrielle threw the ropes and onto the floor!}
Troy Franklin: Nice counter move by Keira Fisher, and she's back in the match now!
{Keira exits the ring and stands on the apron as Gabrielle gets up slowly. Gabrielle turns just in time to see Keira flying through the air with a thez press! Landing on top of Gabrielle, Keira hits some hard right hands before getting up to the cheers of the approving audience. Keira pulls Gabrielle up, and prepares to throw her back into the ring, but Gabrielle grabs Keira’s waist and drives her back into the apron. Keira clutches her back as Gabrielle clears the cobwebs, and then tosses Keira into the opposite barrier. Keira goes down and Gabrielle clutches her face and shakes her head. She picks up Keira and then tosses her back into the ring, before sliding in and making another cover. 1….2…..Keira kicks out.}
Troy Franklin: Gabrielle staying on the attack here.
Duke King: And now she has a target on the lower back of Keira.
{Keira tries to stand as Gabrielle hits another hard forearm. Gabrielle hits another, but Keira keeps bouncing to her knees, trying to stand. She makes it to the corner and gets back up, but Gabrielle is still on top of the situation. Gabrielle goes for a whip to the opposite corner, but Keira reverses. Gabrielle hits the corner hard, but when Keira charges, Gabrielle is ready with another back elbow that drops Keira. Gabrielle then boosts herself on the second rope and as Keira stands, Gabrielle flies off with a double axe handle right to the back that drops Keira again. Gabrielle waits for Keira to start getting up, and when she does, Gabrielle runs in and bulldogs Keira to the mat. Gabrielle makes the cover! 1…..2….Keira sticks a foot on the ropes to save herself.}
Troy Franklin: So close!
Duke King: Keira may not be able sustain much more punishment in this match, Troy.
{Annoyed, Gabrielle grabs a handful of Keira’s hair and pulls her in the middle of the ring, before slamming the back of her head on the mat. Gabrielle then ties up Keira’s legs, and turns over into a well-executed cloverleaf.}
Troy Franklin: Texas Cloverleaf, and Keira's back has got to be screaming in pain!
Duke King: More focus on the back! Gabrielle clearly had a game plan coming in.
{Keira yells out in pain, but does not submit. Keira reaches out for the rope, but she’s too far away. So, she begins dragging Gabrielle towards the ropes, as she inches closer and closer, Gabrielle begins losing her grip on Keira’s legs. Thinking quickly, Gabrielle abandons the cloverleaf, and pulls Keira back away from the ropes a bit and locks in a camel clutch!}
Troy Franklin: And a nice submission switch by Gabrielle Salinas!
Duke King: Still focusing on the back. Gabrielle is impressing me here tonight!
{Keira continues to yell, but still does not submit. Instread, she exerts more energy and crawls towards the ropes, with one last lunge, she makes it, and the referee is forced to break the hold. Gabrielle is none too happy about the break up, complaining that Keira had submitted. The ref tells her no, and Gabrielle waves him off. She goes back to Keira, but Keira pops up with a forearm that rocks Gabrielle, then another, then another. Keira then backs Gabrielle into the ropes, and goes for a whip. Gabrielle reverses, and on the rebound, ducks down for a backdrop, Keira jumps over, and bounds off again, this time hitting a running dropkick to Gabrielle as she turns around! Keira goes for the cover hooking the leg. 1…..2…..Gabrielle kicks away. Keira gets up and meets a stunned Gabrielle as she gets up. Keira throws into the corner and comes in with an elbow, then backs up and charges again with a clothesline. Keira then throws a series of kicks, punches, and forearms, in a dizzying array of strikes. She then sits Gabrielle on the top rope, backs up, and handsprings up, and takes Gabrielle over with the Stratussphere takedown, and makes another cover 1…..2…. Kick out by Gabrielle.}
Troy Franklin: And Keira is still fighting in this match.
Duke King: She is amazingly resilient!
{Keira gets to her feet and grabs Gabrielle and ties to pull her up, but Gabrielle stops that with a jawbreaker, that sends Keira reeling. Gabrielle goes for a whip, but Keira twists out and knees Gabrielle in the gut. Keira then headlocks Gabrielle and signals for the Deadly Sin! [Stratusfaction]}
Troy Franklin: Deadly Sin coming up!
Duke King: If she hits this is over!
{Keira runs, jumps, and kicks, off the top rope, but Gabrielle counters by running forward, actually crotching Keira on the top rope. Gabrielle then crosses Keira’s arms and turns around, pulling Keira off the turnbuckle, right into the Vainity Breaker! [Straight-jacket neckbreaker] Gabrielle rolls Keira’s limp body over and covers hooking the leg 1…..2……3!}
Beth Harris Here is your winnner.... Gabrielle Salinas!
Troy Franklin: And Gabrielle Salinas is moving on!
Duke King: Great effort by both women, but Gabrielle is clearly on a mission tonight!
{Gabrielle rolls off of Keira to a sitting position, as the ref raises her hand. She holds up one finger, indicating that that's one down before rolling out of the ring.}
Troy Franklin: Gabrielle advances, but her road isn't going to get any easier. Up next, Evelyn Taylor will take on Mackenzie Roberts!
{The camera centers on Carmen Diaz as she stands beside Maleek Raheem.}
Carmen Diaz: Mr. Raheem, we understand that you have a huge announcement to make regarding our show tonight. You were on social media on the days leading up to Queen of the Ring saying that you were going to shake things up. Now that we are here, would you like to let the fans know what you have planned?
{Raheem grinned as he rubbed his hands together.}
Maleek Raheem: My pleasure Carmen! As everyone knows, this match tonight between Sidney Grey and Crystal Hilton is gonna be a big one. Both of these women have been out of control and if LAW hopes to have things finally settled between them…they need to make sure that they have complete control of th’ participants. So…tonight, you are lookin’ at the man who will officiate th’ match as special referee!
{Carmen raised her eyebrow at the announcement.}
Carmen Diaz: LAW management has named you special referee in the I Quit match? Can you be impartial in that match?
{He continued to grin, pointing to himself.}
Maleek Raheem: Everything I do is always beyond reproach! I can promise you this Carmen…the woman who wins tonight will deserve it and there will be no doubt about who the better woman is!
{Raheem walks off, leaving Carmen and the fans to wonder about the meaning behind his words.}
Beth Harris Ladies and gentlemen the next match is also part of the Queen of the Ring Tournament!
{"Crushcrushcrush" plays and Mackenzie comes out she has a tiara on her head that says Queen Bitch and she waves to the crowd as they boo her. She doesn't slap hands or anything. She has a black sports bra and blue yoga pants on. She slides in the ring and stands in the middle of it waiting for her opponent.}
Troy Franklin: Mackenzie Roberts was impressive in her debut two weeks ago, defeating Jenny Tuck, She's got momentum coming in to this match.
Duke King: She's riding high right now, but she's facing a new face, so there's not much scouting to do here and now.
{Evie appears at the top of the ramp, waves to the fans before strutting in time to the music to the ring where she straddles the second rope, blowing a kiss to the fans before getting in, cracking her knuckles and waiting}
Troy Franklin: Evelyn Taylor has some impressive trainers in her corner, that's for sure.
Duke King: Yeah, but you can only train so much. And while she's been trained by champions, she's still got to go out there and earn it.
{The bell rings as Mackenzie continues to trash talk Evie as the two circle. They finally lock up and Mackenzie instantly grabs handful of Evie’s hair and leads her back into the corner. The referee forces a clean break, but Mackenzie swings with a wild right, but Evie ducks, and slaps on a headlock, leading Mackenzie out of the corner. Mackenzie looks for an escape, trying to reverse to a top wristlock, but Evie keeps the headlock on. Mackenzie eventually gets her hand in between Evie’s arms, and reverses into a hammerlock, then switches to a headlock of her own. Evie then powers Mackenzie back into the corner, and the ref forces a break. Mackenzie and Evie continue to circle and then go to lock up again, but Mackenzie ducks and applies a waistlock. Evie now looks for an escape and drop down, executing a drop toe hold take takes Mackenzie down. Evie instantly floats into a headlock on the mat. Mackenzie turns her body and reaches her legs and feet out to touch the ropes, but Evie smacks them away. Mackenzie then swings from a seated position to a knee, and then shoots some hard elbows and forearms into Evie’s gut, doubling her over. Mackenzie grabs a front headlock, and drives Evie into the mat. Mackenzie scoots towards the ropes, still having the headlock on, and places her feet on the ropes for added leverage.}
Troy Franklin: And an unfair advantage by Mackenzie there!
Duke King: Troy, glory and honor are on the line right now, you pull out all the stops!
{Evie flails around, but when the ref checks Mackenzie, her feet are now off the ropes. As soon as the ref turns to check on Evie again, Mackenzie places her feet on the ropes. Evie flails around again, but again, when the ref checks, her feet are off the ropes just as fast. Once again the ref goes back to check on Evie, but this time he looks back just as Mackenzie puts her feet on the ropes again. The fans cheers as the ref forces Mackenzie to break the hold. She stands up, proclaiming innocence.}
Troy Franklin: And the referee finally catches on!
{Mackenzie goes back to Evie who is on a knee. Evie fires a right hand into the gut of Mackenzie, who stumbles back. She comes in again, and Evie again nails her.

Crowd: 1....2....3.....4....5....6....7....8....9.....10!
{When Evie climbs down the ref warns her about using the fists. When Evie moves back in, Mackenzie instantly rakes her eyes to regain the advantage. Mackenzie then drapes Evie throat-first across the top rope, and then drags Evie down the rope, choking her along the way. Evie drops to her knees gasping for air as Mackenzie taunts the crowd.}
Troy Franklin: Goodness Mackenzie Roberts is going to take every shortcut in the book to win this match!
Duke King: That just proves how bad she wants it.
{Mackenzie turns back as Evie slumps in the corner. Mackenzie starts stomping Evie, before choking her with her boot. After being forced to break, Mackenzie goes right back to stomping Evie in the corner until Evie moves away. Evie tries to stand up, but Mackenzie kicks her square in the ribs to keep down down. Standing over Evie, Mackenzie hooks up Evie in a camel clutch with Evie on her knees. Instead of pulling on the chin of Evie, Mackenzie begins pulling on the nose of Evie instead.}
Troy Franklin: Now Mackenzie trying to rearrange the face of Evelyn!
{The ref admonishes Mackenzie who gives up the hold. Evie leans against the ropes, and Mackenzie hits the opposite ropes, and jumps on Evie, catching her throat on the middle rope.

Troy Franklin: And now Evie is rolling!
{Mackenzie rolls towards the ropes, attempting to escape the ring, but Evie grabs her foot and pulls her back to the middle of the ring. Evie picks up the free leg of Mackenzie and looks out to the crowd who cheer in approval as Mackenzie begs off. Evie then stomps the mid-section of Mackenzie who rolls around in pain. Mackenzie starts getting up and Evie grabs her by the hair and throws her face-first into the turnbuckle. Evie backs up as Mackenzie turns around in the corner and Evie comes in with a hard clothesline, and then as Mackenzie stumbles out of the corner, she walks into a Samoan Drop! Evie again makes the cover! 1…..2…..Mackenzie rolls the shoulder!}
Troy Franklin: And now it's Mackenzie who needs to turn this thing around!

Duke King: Mackenzie had everything under control! Evelyn out of nowhere. She might have held the tights.
Troy Franklin: She did not. Another outstanding matchup in the tournament!
{Evie rolls out of the ring as Mackenzie has a stunned look on her face. Mackenzie cannot believe she lost as she complains about it, as Evie walks to the back with a smile on her face.}
Troy Franklin: We have 3 women now as Evelyn Taylor joins Gabrielle Salinas and Jennifer Drew in the semi finals.
Duke King: And now we only have 1 opening round match left. Jenny Williams will take on Nyako.
Beth Harris Ladies and gentlemen, this is the final first round match match in the Queen of the Ring Tournament!
{“You’re Going Down” starts playing and Nyako emerges from the back to a mixture of boos and cheers. She starts down the ramp way scanning the crowd before turning her attention the the empty ring or her opponent inside and walks slowly down to the end on the ramp.
At the end of the ramp she gets a running start and hops up on the apron before climbing through the middle ropes quickly to the inside of the ring. After entering the ring she walks over to a corner and raises her arms in the air with her index fingers pointed at the sky as a few pyrotechnics explode In the ring behind her and the crowd reacts.
She hops down from corner and turns her full attention up the ramp to wait for her opponent to come down.}
Troy Franklin: Nyako can claim victories over Miyoko Oshiro and most notably the Doc, albeit via disqualification. She's been impressive no doubt.
Duke King: Two matches and two wins, can she keep it going against Jenny Williams though?
{Smile by Avril Lavgine begins to blast all over the speakers and as it does we are treated to Jennifer Famularo along with Xander Famularo emerging from behind the curtain. She grins as she bounces out clapping the hands of the fans that are cheering her on as Xander just supports her walking down the aisle closely behind showing absolutely no sign of emotion. Xander stands by ringside as Jenny quickly slides in the ring. She slowly walks to a turnbuckle where she lifts one foot over it. She seductively moves her body to the side before throwing her arms up in the air pulling herself away. She takes her hate breeder t shirt off and throws it into the crowd as she bounces around bubbly.}
Troy Franklin: And here we go, final match of the first round!
{The bell rings and Nyako instantly charges Jenny and begins nailing her with forearms, completely catching Jenny off-guard. Nayko grabs Jenny and tosses her into the turnbuckle head-first a couple of times. Another hard shot keeps Jenny stunned as Nyako hits the ropes and nails her with a flying back elbow. Jenny goes down and scrambles up, only to catch a stiff side kick to the gut, then sends her back into the corner. Nyako charges, but Jenny gets the boot up and catches Nyako coming in. Nyako charges again, but Jenny this time gets both boots up and catches Nayko again. Nayko falls back as Jenny boosts herself onto the middle rope. As Nayko gets up, Jenny flies off with a missile dropkick that sends Nyako down again. Nyako stumbles up, and Jenny runs at her, leaps into the air, and then takes Nyako over with a hurricanrana! Jenny stands up and takes a bow, and fans cheer the action as Nyako is stunned.}
Troy Franklin: Jenny is lightning fast!
Duke King: Nyako must slow down the pace, or Jenny will make this a quick match!
{Jenny grabs Nyako by the hair and pulls her to a standing position, and wrings the arm. But, it doesn’t last long as Nyako spins out, and lands hard elbow to Jenny’s chest. Jenny fires back, but the stronger strikes of Nyako win out as the trade, with Nyako backing Jenny into the corner with the force of her blows. Nyako grabs the arm of Jenny and tries to whip her across to the opposite corner, but Jenny reverses, and follows Nayko in with a hard clothesline. Jenny then tries to whip Nyako back to the other side, but Nyako goes for the reversal, but Jenny reverses back, and lifts Nyako and drops her face-first into the turnbuckle. Nyako stumbles back into a nice German suplex! Jenny keeps the bridge! 1……2…. Nyako rolls out.}
Troy Franklin: And right now, Nyako is having her problems keeping Jenny grounded!
{Jenny motions to the crowd as she steps out onto the apron. They cheer as she begins climbing, but Nyako is back on her feet before Jenny makes it all the way up. Jenny sees then and when Nyako gets on the turnbuckle, Jenny pushes her back down. But Nyako gets up quickly, and jumps up with a nasty kick to the head that stuns Jenny. Nyako then grabs Jenny by the hair and flings her off the turnbuckle. Jenny slowly gets up, and Nyako scoops her into powerslam position, walks to the corner and hits the snake eyes. Nyako hits the ropes and then catches a dazed Jenny with a running knee lift. Nyako quickly makes the cover hooking the leg. 1……2….. Jenny kicks out.}
Troy Franklin: A close call there, and now Nyako is beginning to turn it up.
Duke King: And this is what she has to do Troy. She's obviously stronger than Jenny, she's got to punish her with those strikes.
{Jenny rolls towards the ropes, and leans against them back-first. Still dazed, she gets caught by Nyako against the rope, and Nyako begins driving hard knees into Jenny’s face. Nyako pulls Jenny up and snapmares her over, and then hits the ropes and drives another hard knee into Jenny’s face. Jenny goes down and looks out of it. Nyako makes the cover! 1……2….. Jenny rolls the shoulder.}
Troy Franklin: Man, Nyako has some powerful strikes!
{Nyako stands up and stomps Jenny on the mat to keep her there. Nyako then steps out onto the apron, and begins climbing the turnbuckles herself.

Nyako slowly gets up, and Jenny hits the ropes and springboards again, hitting another dropkick that takes Nyako out of the ring to the floor!}
Troy Franklin: Springboard dropkick, and Nyako is on the floor!
Duke King: Jenny's on the move again!
{Nyako lays on the floor and Jenny motions to the crowd who cheer in approval. Nyako starts getting up on the outside and Jenny hits the ropes and flies over with a tope con hilo on the floor on Nyako!}
Troy Franklin: Tope Con Hilo!
{Both Jenny and Nyako are down after the dive. The ref starts his count 1……2……..3…..…4…….5… Jenny is about the recover and pull Nyako up and toss her back inside the ring. Jenny then climbs the turnbuckle nearest to her and waits. Nyako slowly stands up, and Jenny flies off with a cross-body! Jenny stays on top! 1…..2…..3NO! Nyako rolls the shoulder.}
Troy Franklin: Jenny almost had her! This is what happens when the pace quickens!
Duke King: Nyako is letting Jenny dictate the pace, and she's paying for it right now!
{Jenny gets up and pulls Nyako up as well. Jenny hooks Nyako in suplex position, she lifts, but Nyako blocks. Nyako twists out and knees Jenny in the gut. Nyako hooks Jenny into powerbomb position and tries to lift her, but Jenny blocks. Jenny then drives Nyako back-first into the corner. Nyako stumbles forward into a kick to the gut, and Jenny hooks her and takes her over with a snap suplex. Jenny floats into the cover 1……2…..Nyako kicks out.}
Troy Franklin: Another close call!
{Jenny slowly gets to her feet, and raises her fist in the air. The crowd look in anticipation of the Widowmaker 2.0. Nyako stands, and Jenny swings, but Nyako ducks! Jenny turns back around into a vicious head kick!}
Troy Franklin: Oh man! What a kick! Right to the head!
Duke King: Jenny is out on her feet!
{Nyako then pulls a dazed Jenny into powerbomb position. She lifts Jenny up and over, and the drops her with the Tsunami Driver [Gory Neckbreaker] Nyako rolls Jenny over and makes the cover! 1…..2……3!}
Beth Harris Here is your winnner ..... Nyako!
Troy Franklin: And Nyako picks up the victory, and she advances in the tournament!
Duke King: One big strike changed this match Troy, Nyako has knockout power in her hands and feet.
{Nyako gets up and holds her arms in the air in victory. She nods and pumps her fist in celebration, also checking her mouth for blood before exiting through the ropes.}
Troy Franklin: Nyako advances, and that completes the first round Duke.
Duke King: Nyako joins 1, Gabrielle Salinas, & 3 in the Semi finals. We're going to have Nyako battling Evie Taylor and Gabrielle Salinas will take on Jennifer Drew!
Troy Franklin: Coming up next folks... it's an "I Quit" match between Crystal Hilton and Sidney Grey!
Troy Franklin: This is it Duke! Finally we settle things between Sidney Grey and Crystal Hilton…and we do it with an I Quit Match!!
Duke King: There is no better way to do it Troy. I know we heard a lot about Sidney being left out of the Queen of the Ring tournament, but this really is the best move for LAW. These two have been at each other’s throats since day one…and tonight someone quits.
Troy Franklin: Well…I would agree with you, but the deck appears to be heavily stacked against Sidney in this one with her former manager installed as the special guest referee. she was on social media guaranteeing that Sidney would not win this match. I don’t understand how Lucus Dupree can allow this match to go on under those circumstances…but that is just what is going to happen here!
Duke King: There are many angles here to consider Troy, but the match has been set and there is nothing left to be said…all the talking is going to be done in the ring when one of these ladies is forced to quit!
Troy Franklin: And with that final note…lets turn things over to Beth and get this underway!!
{Beth Harris walks around the ring as the fans stand and cheer.}
Beth Harris: Ladies and gentlemen, this next match is an I Quit match! There are no rules and the only way to win is to force your opponent to quit!
{The arena shakes as the fans stand and cheer. Flashing lights fill the entranceway as "Superstar" by Lupe fiasco fills the arena.}
Beth Harris: Introducing the special guest referee for this match! Hailing from Los Angeles, California…MALEEK RAHEEM!!!!
{The fans seem torn over their dislike of Raheem and his obvious support for Crystal as he walks out wearing an “A-Lister’s” t-shirt, playing to the thousands of screaming fans.}
Troy Franklin: Wow Duke! This is surreal! He is actually coming out to Crystal Hilton’s theme music and wearing her shirt! Is it possible that he could get anymore bias in this match?
Duke King: This is one of the strangest things I have ever seen. I mean, there is no love lost for Sidney Grey out here…but this is insane!
{Raheem walks down the aisle, giving out high fives and actually signing a few autographs right on the spot. He enters the ring and plays to the crowd a bit more before turning to Beth and taking the microphone out of her hands. He winks at her and holds the ropes as she ushers her out.}
Duke King: What is this? Why is he sending Beth out?
{Raheem takes the center of the ring as he addresses the crowd}
Maleek Raheem: Ladies and gentlemen, before we get this match started, I wanted to address the people who were affected by the earthquake early this morning in California. We all hope that you and your families are safe and we send you all of our blessings.}[/font]
Troy Franklin: Well…that was nice…
Maleek Raheem: Tonight…Crystal Hilton is dedicating the incredible ass kicking she is about to give to Sidney Grey, to all of you!!
Troy Franklin: I spoke too soon…
{The fans cheer all the same as "Superstar" by Lupe Fiasco starts playing again and the fans go crazy.}
Maleek Raheem: Introducing first…accompanied by Nicky Silver, the winner of this match and the sexist woman on the planet…standing 5’5” and weighing 115 pounds…hailing from the greatest city in the world, Los Angeles, California…“THE ROSE GODDESS” CRYSTAL HILTON!!
{Two lights are pointed at the entrance way as Crystal and Nicky both emerge, both wearing their own A-Lister t-shirts. Multiple pyros start shooting off one by one as the crowd roars loudly. The two begin walking down the aisle as Crystal cracks a grin and her photographers line up to take pictures of her. She finally makes it to the ring and places one foot on the apron and stretches the other one on the apron as well. She does a split to enter the ring and she finally makes it to her feet. She smiles bouncing around a bit as Raheem claps and cheers for her.}
Duke King: Apparently that leg that Sidney attempted to injure several weeks ago is doing well. She seems to be moving just fine.
Troy Franklin: That…or she hopes that Sidney will believe that she isn’t still injured. There is a bit of tape peaking through her pads. If I can see it…I know Sidney can, and she’ll try her best to capitalize.
{“Suffocate” by Cold begins to play as the lights dim all through the arena and the fans instantly begin to boo.}
Maleek Raheem: And her opponent…hailing from the Stone Age! Standing with one foot in the grave and weighing a whole hell of a lot than she admits…hailing from the mummies crypt…Sidney Grey…
Duke King: That was disrespectful!
{Fog rolls through the entranceway as a bright light shines from behind it. A shadowy figure is projected through the fog, but instead of grinding to the beat of the music. Sidney Grey emerges on a crutch as the crowd starts to boo her loudly.}
Troy Franklin: Look at this…is she serious?!
Duke King: She really might be injured Troy…lets not jump to conclusions here.
{She makes her way to the ring, using her crutch for support. She slowly makes her way into the ring as she flips off Nicky and Crystal.}
Troy Franklin: Look at Crystal; she has to be held back by Nicky, as Sidney gets into the ring!
{Sidney asks Raheem for the microphone, but he refuses, forcing her to be handed a microphone from outside the ring. She turns and addresses them.}
Sidney Grey: Look! I am really hurt here and it’s obvious that this match can’t happen…so…that’s it. Sorry to everyone here tonight…I’m really very sorry!
{Sidney starts to leave, but Raheem runs over and grabs her.}
Maleek Raheem: Not so fast! This is an I Quit Match…if you want out…you have to say the words.
{Sidney glares at Raheem, then turns her eyes on Crystal, her face twisted in a mask of hatred. She stares back at Raheem, then brings the microphone to her mouth.}
Sidney Grey: Okay…I Quit!
{The crowd is stunned as Sidney drops the microphone and again turns and starts to leave the ring.}
Troy Franklin: Is it over? I mean…she just quit, right?
Duke King: Let’s see what the referee says…
{Raheem grabs Sidney again, pulling her back into the ring.}
Maleek Raheem: I didn’t hear you…and besides…the match hasn’t started yet.
{Sidney glares at Raheem and has a few choice words for him, but she turns and spits in Crystal’s direction and the fans cheer as Crystal charges at Sidney. Sidney quickly ducks into the ropes, but Crystal grabs her by her hair, holding her as she unloads with a flurry of punches as the fans scream and cheer}
Troy Franklin: Maleek Raheem has signaled for the bell and this match is underway!
Duke King: Not the most conventional start to a match…but it’s underway I guess! Though, it seems like she could have ended it right there when she quit.
Troy Franklin: It seems like Raheem is looking to see Crystal punish Sidney!
{Sidney manages to jam her crutch into Crystal's midsection then draws back and smashes it right into the side of her previously injured knee, sending her to the canvas in a heap as she holds her leg in pain. Raheem attempts to stop Sidney.}
Duke King: What’s he doing? Anything goes here!
{Sidney swings the crutch at him and he quickly slides out of the ring. Sidney circles Crystal like a hungry lioness and swings the bent crutch again and connects with a shot right into the same place on her leg as she attacked before. The crutch disintegrates into tiny bits of twisted metal as Crystal screams in pain and goes down clutching her knee. Sidney hobbles around the ring, playing to the crowd as they boo her loudly, but she seems to relish that just as much.}
Troy Franklin: GOOD LORD! SIDNEY MAY HAVE JUST BROKEN CRYSTAL’S LEG!!
Duke King: Hey, broken or not, the playing field has just become a bit more level!!!
{Raheem slides back into the ring and heads over to check on Crystal.}
Duke King: Is she going to quit right here?
{Crystal shoves Raheem away and the fans cheer, seeing that she hasn’t quit. Nicky pounds the mat outside the ring to urge her friend on. Sidney pushes past Raheem and grabs a handful of Crystal’s long brown hair and pulls her up to her knees. Sidney rears back and punches her squarely in the jaw and she reels backwards. Sidney grabs her again, and again Crystal’s head snaps back as she punches her in the face. Sidney grabs her by her hair a third time and starts screaming at her as she rears back again. As she swings, Crystal gets up and arm blocks the punch, then stings her with one of her own as the fans roar and Crystal falls to one knee.}
Troy Franklin: CRYSTAL IS FIGHTING BACK!! SHE’S FIGHTING BACK!!!
{As Sidney reels from the unexpected shot, Crystal gamely makes it to her feet, hobbling a bit as she closes the gap and goes straight to work as she trades punches with Sidney, but she is giving it all back. They trade punches and now Crystal is getting the upper hand. Crystal forces Sidney into the ropes and then slingshots her to the other side of the ring.}
Duke King: She is still favoring that leg, even when she is running. DAMN! A kick right to Sidney's bad leg and Sidney flips and lands on her back. She's holding her leg in pain.
Troy Franklin: No rest given to Sidney as Crystal is now on her knees next to her pounding punch after punch in her face. Maleek Raheem is just watching with a huge smile on his face. Crystal back to her feet and grabs Sidney's bad leg.
Duke King: Elbow drop against the inside of the knee, and she's back up quickly, leg drop on to the leg. And again up to her feet…WITHERING ROSE!! SHE HAS HER FINISHER ON SIDNEY!!
{Sidney screams as Crystal’s elevated Boston Crab is locked in tightly.}
Troy Franklin: Her attacks are solely focused on the leg and the pain is apparent on Sidney's face! She might give up right here!!
{Sidney crawls towards the ropes as the fans stand and cheer, knowing that she will never make it to them. Tears stream down her face as the pain shoots through her body. Amazingly, Sid reaches for and grabs the ropes…but Raheem doesn’t signal for the hold to be broken.}
Troy Franklin: ANYTHING GOES HERE! THAT WON’T END THIS MATCH!!
{Raheem sticks the microphone in Sidney’s face and tells her to quit. Sidney screams as she pounds her hands on the mat, tapping out…but Raheem does not signal the end of the match.}
Duke King: She has to quit…she has to say the words!
{Sidney grabs the microphone in Raheem’s hands and screams, but he pulls the microphone away, even as everyone at ringside clearly hears her say that she quits. Crystal let’s go of the hold and raises her hand as Nicky jumps in the ring and they start to celebrate. Raheem waves it off and everyone is shocked.}
Duke King: What in the hell is going on here? Is he siding with Sid?
Troy Franklin: I don’t think so…he is telling Crystal to punish Sidney! He wants Crystal to take Sidney completely out!
{Crystal seems reluctant to do it at first, but the memory of everything that Sidney had put her through bubbles to the surface. Crystal looks down on Sidney, then gives her leg one more good stomp, as she nearly losses her balance due to the damage to her own leg. Crystal slides out of the ring and walks towards the announce table.}
Troy Franklin: The fans are behind Crystal tonight, you can hear them all chanting her name as, OH NO! She's grabbed a chair!
Duke King: THINGS ARE ABOUT TO GET HARDCORE!
Troy Franklin: Crystal slides back in and limps over to Sidney who is slowly trying to get up. Looks like Crystal is going to bring that chair down on Sidney!
Duke King: SIDNEY CAME FLYING UP WITH A KICK TO THE CHAIR ONTO CRYSTAL’S FACE! Crystal is down but so is Sidney!! She used that bad leg and she may be as hurt as Crystal is!!
Troy Franklin: She could have done more damage with that move if it wasn't for her leg. They are both down.
{Raheem seems beside himself as he paces the ring and Nicky screams for Crystal to get up. The two women slowly start to make it, but Crystal is a hair faster at recovering.}
Troy Franklin: Crystal goes back to Sidney and again they start trading blows. Sidney drops to her knees.
Duke King: LOW BLOW! Crystal falls to the mat holding her crotch as Sidney goes over and grabs the chair. Payback time!
{The fans boo as Sidney measures her opponent, looking to finish her off, once and for all. Sidney loads up to swing the chair and Raheem snatches it out of her hand.}
Troy Franklin: AGAIN?!!
Troy Franklin: Crystal grabs Sidney and whips her into the ropes and misses a clothesline, she rebounds and…
Duke King: MAFIA KICK! Crystal got smacked in the face. That came out of nowhere.
{Crystal lays on the mat dazed as she stares at the lights, Sidney lays on the mat a few feet away holding her leg as the fans stand on their feet. Slowly Sidney gets to her feet, but instead of going right after Crystal, she flips off Raheem and she starts to taunt the fans. The boos are thunderous, but she smiles as she makes her way back to her opponent.}
Troy Franklin: She is now hovering over Crystal by her legs. She grabs both of her legs and holds them open!! SHE’S GOING TO STOMP HER WHERE IT HURTS!!! SIDNEY SUDDENLY TURNS ON RAHEEM AS SHE LETS CRYSTAL GO!! FACE BUSTER ON MALEEK RAHEEM RIGHT INTO THAT STEEL CHAIR!
Duke King: OH SNAP!!! I THINK SIDNEY JUST BUSTED RAHEEM'S GRILL WITH THAT MOVE!!! MAN!! HE’S OUT FOR THE COUNT!!!
{Sidney looks down at Raheem with a sadistic grin as she slowly makes it to her feet, but just as she turns her attention back to Crystal, she is quickly floored.}
Duke King: Sidney is back up and walks straight into a clothesline from Crystal!!
{Crystal pulls up Sidney by the hair and tosses her over the top rope. As Sidney hits the floor in a heap, Crystal kneels beside Raheem to help him, but he is completely unconscious. Nicky gets into the ring, yelling at Crystal to go after Sidney. Crystal pauses for a moment, but after she sees EMTs rushing to the ring, she relents.}
Troy Franklin: I’m not sure what happens right now…since we are without a referee…but this match appears to be continuing!
{Crystal slides out of the ring as she looks to continue the match. She goes under the ring and pulls out a ladder. She slides it into the ring and throws in a chair as well. She pauses for a moment to watch as Raheem is taken out, then she turns her attention back to Sidney as Nicky yells at her again. Crystal picks Sidney back up.}
Duke King: She is moving her over to the steel stairs. Twisting Suplex!!
{Crystal lifts Sidney up and twisted the movement of a suplex resulting in Sidney's leg smashing down on the steel stairs.}
Troy Franklin: Sidney is down again!!! MAN!! THAT WAS BRUTAL!!!
{Crystal rolls into the ring and grabs the ladder as she takes it and jams it into the corner. Sshe wastes no time as she rolls back out and goes after Sidney again.}
Duke King: Still Crystal doesn’t take a break and throws Sidney into the ring and follows in. Holding Sidney on her feet, she's pointing at the ladder!
{Crystal screams as she sends Sidney into the ladder with every ounce of strength that she has. The crowd roars as Sid hits it with tremendous force and crumbles to the mat.}
Duke King: BRUTAL! JUST BRUTAL!!
Troy Franklin: Crystal is holding the ladder now. SHE JUST SLAMMED THE LADDER DOWN ON SIDNEY’S INJURED LEG. IT MIGHT NOT BE ABLE TO TAKE ANY MORE PUNISHMENT.
{Sidney screams that she quits, but without a referee there, the match continues.}
Duke King: That is three times that this match should have ended! What is going on here?!!
Troy Franklin: Someone will have to sort this out!!
{Crystal tosses away the ladder and looks around the ring, then throws up her hands as she resumes the assault on Sidney. She pulls her to her feet and sends her into the rope. She rebounds off the ropes as she zeroes in on her with a flying clothesline that sends Sidney toppling over the top rope and down to the floor below as the fans go wild.}
Duke King: DAMN!!
{Crystal slips out of the ring and goes after Sidney. As Sidney rolls around on the floor holding her back, Crystal stomps her repeatedly. The fans roar, cheering in unison “KICK HER ASS! KICK HER ASS!” Crystal kneels down over Sidney and starts drilling her in the forehead with vicious elbow shots. Suddenly Crystal stops as all the color seems to drain from her face and falls over holding her crotch as Sidney manages to get her knee up in desperation.}
Duke King: OH MAN!!! Crystal is going to be singing a few octaves higher now on her next album!!
{Sidney sits up as she looks over with a dazed look in her eyes and sees Crystal still holding her crotch in pain. She quickly gains the advantage and slams the back of Crystal's head into the exposed concrete over and over again.}
Troy Franklin: She isn't just trying to win the match, she's trying to destroy Crystal!!
{Crystal manages to shove her away, then she gets her foot up and kicks her backwards with tremendous force.}
Troy Franklin: OH MY!! Crystal just launched her into the steel barricade!!!
{Crystal struggles to get to her feet as Sidney does the same, while using the barricade for balance.}
Troy Franklin: UHHH!! FLASHING LIGHTS KICK BY CRYSTAL SENDS SIDNEY FLYING OVER THE BARRICADE AND INTO THE FANS!!!
{The crowd roars as Crystal follows her over, locks in a headlock and plants her with a snap suplex onto the pavement.}
Troy Franklin: OH MAN!!! BRUTAL!!!
{Crystal clears out the fans as she looks down at Sidney, then shakes her head as she sees the woman struggling to get up. Crystal waives for one of the fans to move, then takes his seat. Crystal raises the chair and swings it down with all her might. The sound of metal on concrete echoes through the building as Sidney rolls away at the last moment. Crystal recovers quickly and swings again.}
Duke King: HOLY CRAP!!!
{This time, the sound of metal on concrete is replaced by metal on flesh as the chair shot connects solidly…with a fan that Sidney manages to pull in front of her at the last moment. Crystal watches as Nicky rushes to the man's side as Security rushes in to clear the area of spectators. Crystal is only distracted for a moment, but that is all that Sidney needs as she rips the chair from her hands and nails Crystal square in the forehead. Crystal stumbles around dazed from the hit, but as she comes back around Sidney levels her with a second chairshot that echoes through the arena.}
Duke King: OH MY GOD!!! THIS NEEDS TO BE CALLED OFF!! IT HAS TO BE STOPPED!!
{As Crystal falls to the floor, Sidney drops the chair and stands over her, screaming for her to quit, but there is no one there to hear it…nor does Crystal make a move to quit the match. The arena is in an uproar as nearly everyone is distracted by the injured fan and his hysterical friends. Sidney drops down and covers Crystal, as she pounds the floor with her own hand, but still no one pays her attention…especially since a pinfall would not end the match.}
Troy Franklin: Come on! How can she expect this match to go on with a injured fan a ringside? ONE THAT SHE CAUSED TO BE INJURED!!
{Sidney staggers to her feet as she grabs Nicky from behind and spins her around, but Sidney is surprised as Nicky smacks her so hard that she nearly falls over.}
Duke King: OH MAN!! SHE IS PISSED!!!
Troy Franklin: WELL SHE ISN'T THE ONLY ONE!!
{Crystal staggers to her feet as she grabs Sidney by her hair from behind and the fans cheer. Crystal starts to drag her through the crowd!!}
Duke King: Ohhh!!! Ahhhh!! OUCH!!! Crystal keeps bouncing her head off the empty chairs as fans clear the way for them!! They are heading out to the main lobby of the building!!!
{There is a loud crash as Crystal sends Sidney into the side of a nearby popcorn machine and the entire thing topples over, sending fans and vendors running for cover. Crystal stands over Sidney as she looks around at the carnage she has caused, as she reaches down to grab her, her face is suddenly enveloped in a yellow splash of hot butter as Sidney tosses the container up at her. Crystal screams as she staggers back holding her eyes and face in pain.}
Duke King: HOLY CRAP TROY!!! HOW DO YOU LIKE YOUR ROSE GODDESS?? BUTTERED OR PLAIN?!!!
{Sidney slowly makes it to her feet as she staggers over to the wall and grabs a broom from beside a janitors closet.}
Troy Franklin: HERE COMES SIDNEY BACK INTO THE FIGHT!!! OOOOOhhhhh!!!
{Sidney runs at Crystal from behind and takes out her leg with a well placed shot to the side of the knee!! Sidney stares at Crystal, as she holds her knee in pain and looks around. She finally sees what she is looking for and she grabs Crystal, dragging her to the near by stair railing. She pulls Crystal’s legs out on either side, as she moves outside and wraps Crystal’s legs around the support and latches on to her leg, applying a figure four leg lock as she hangs from the edge of the stairs.}
Duke King: SID-KNEE LOCK!! SHE HAS IT LOCKED ON TIGHT!!! THIS IS THE MOVE SHE PUT CYNTHIA OUT WITH!!
{Crystal screams as she fights the hold, but there is no way to escape the otherwise highly illegal move. Sidney screams at Crystal, telling her to quit, but Crystal shakes her head furiously, refusing. Nicky rushes over, her hands on her head as she doesn’t know what to do. Sidney keeps on the pressure, putting everything she has into the hold as she screams as well.}
Troy Franklin: CRYSTAL, JUST QUIT!! SAY THE WORDS!!!
Duke King: She won’t do it Troy!! She won’t quit!!
{The fans watch on the big screen as others flood the concession area to see for themselves, all cheering for Crystal. Crystal muscles herself up grabbing at Sidney’s legs, pulling at them to break the hold.}
Troy Franklin: SHE’S FIGHTING OUT OF IT!! SHE’S FIGHTING IT!!
{The fans cheer, even as a new official finally runs out. Crystal is on the verge of escape, when Sid begins to bounce, further tightening the hold. Crystal falls back in pain as she covers her face, still refusing to quit. The referee drops down to ask her, but she refuses still.}
Duke King: She’s not going to do it…she is not going to quit!
{Crystal goes motionless as the referee stands there unsure of what to do. Nicky rushes over, kneeling over Crystal and holding her, she turns to the referee and yells that Crystal has quit. The referee signals that the match is over, but Sid does not release the hold.}
Troy Franklin: COME ON!! STOP THIS!!
{Sidney seems intent on breaking Crystal’s leg, but the head of Security and a host of others physically pull Sidney off as the fans boo their displeasure at the finish of this match. Nicky continues to hold her friend as help rushes over to check on her.}
Troy Franklin: I’m speechless…unbelievable match…but I don’t know that Crystal actually quit…I mean, we never heard her say it. Sid quit multiple times and…I…I just don’t know what to say here.
Duke King: I agree with you…we didn’t hear it…but Crystal’s friend says that she quit and the referee accepted it.
{As Sidney is forcibly removed from the area, Kate Harris announces her as the winner, while the fans boo loudly knowing that Sidney stole the match.}
Beth Harris: The winner of the match…SIDNEY GREY!!
Troy Franklin: Management needs to take a good hard look at this one…Crystal was robbed and Sidney is walking around here like she really earned the win! This is sickening!
Troy Franklin: We just hope that Crystal is okay after that brutal match. If she can…I am sure she will step through the ropes and do that one more time! So after all that, we have to continue with the Queen of the Ring tournament!
Beth Harris: This contest is the first semi finals match of the Queen of the Ring tournament!
{The arena speakers play 'Vanity' and the crowd starts booing when Gabriella Salinas appears on the stage. She mockingly blows a kiss to the crowd, just to draw some more heat out of them. She confidently walks to the ring, having no reason to interact with the crowd. She enters the ring and leans against the corner, giving the fans a "hand to the face" signal while she waits for the match to start.}
Troy Franklin: Gabrielle was successful earlier tonight against Keira Fisher, but she didn't have an easy time.
Duke King:But of the four women left, she has to be in the freshest. If you want to call that fresh.
{“The Takedown” begins to play as Jenn walks out to the top of the ramp with her hands raised up in the air with devil horns. She’s head banging as she makes her way down the ramp and to the ring. She slides into ring and flashes the devil horns once more one the turnbuckles and hops down waiting for the match to begin.}
Troy Franklin:Jennifer was able to get by Miyoko in the first round, but that was a heck of a fight too.
Duke King: This is now where you see who really has the stamina and cardio right here. And heart. Because if you win this match, you have to go out AGAIN to win the whole thing.
{Jenn and Gabrielle have their eyes locked on each other as they circle. They lock up, and Gabrielle hits cheap knee to the ribs, then a solid right hand then sends Jenn reeling into the corner. Gabrielle moves in with a kick, and Jenn staggers out of the corner trying to create distance, but Gabrielle stays on top with a hard forearm, which drops Jenn to a knee. Gabrielle pulls her up and scoops her onto her shoulders and hits a nice powerslam. Gabrielle covers. 1…….2…. Jenn kicks out.}
Troy Franklin: And much like earlier, Gabrielle starting fast. Looking to overwhelm Jennifer in the early going.
{Gabrielle complains about the count before going back to Jenn, who hops up and snaps off a hurricanrana out of nowhere! Jenn stays on top and begins hitting some hard right hands, before getting up and yelling for Gabrielle to get up. She does so and Jenn whips her into a corner. Jenn comes charging up, but Gabrielle meets her with a back elbow. Jenn uses the ropes to try and get up, but Gabrielle is right there to choke her against them. Breaking on four, Gabrielle again gives the referee static about her breaking the rules. Gabrielle then stomps Jenn and pulls her to her feet and hits another clubbing forearm. She leans Jenn against the ropes and whips her in, ducking for a backdrop, but Jenn kicks her in the chest to counter. Jenn throws another kick which is caught. Jenn then leaps for the Enziguri, but Gabrielle ducks! Jenn lands hard on her stomach, and Gabrielle instantly locks in the STF!}
Troy Franklin: Nice counter by Gabrielle into the STF.
Duke King: And as advertised, Gabrielle is a master of submission wrestling.
{Jenn fights and claws trying to reach the ropes, but cannot. She shakes her head “No” each time the referee asks her. She begins trying to make a move towards the ropes, reaching out, but is still pretty close to being in the center of the ring. She starts pulling towards the ropes she can see, gaining a little ground. She flattens her palms and does it one more time, gaining a little more ground. But in the meantime, Gabrielle continues to wrench and pull on the head and neck of Jenn. Jenn tries to scoot a little more, but very progress is minimal. She reaches out for the ropes, but is still a little ways away. Suddenly, Jenn’s hand reaching for the ropes slowly begins to drop, as her struggle starts to slow.}
Troy Franklin: Jenn may be going out here.
Duke King: She's been in that hold for a long, long time!
{Jenn’s eyes are glassy, and she looks to be losing consciousness. The Ref asks Jenn if she wants to quit, but Jenn still refuses. Her arm drops to the canvas and the ref again asks, but gets no response. He goes and lifts Jenn’s arm, and Jenn springs to life with a rush of adrenaline, and crawls, and finally is able to reach the ropes! The referee forces a break.}
Troy Franklin: And Jenn JUST makes it to the ropes.
Duke King: But that had to take a lot out of Jennifer right there. Gabrielle keeps that pressure on she may be walking into the finals.
{Gabrielle gets up, annoyed that Jenn is still fighting. She stomps her a few times, and them slams her face into the canvas, before taunting the crowd, who boo her in response. Gabrielle turns back to Jenn who kicks her in the gut from a seated position, but Gabrielle recovering quickly, and boots Jenn in the head! Gabrielle looks angry as she hits the ropes and tries for a leg drop, but Jenn rolls out of the way! Gabrielle gets up stunned, and Jenn rolls her up! 1……2….Gabrielle kicks out!}
Troy Franklin: Jennifer almost stole one there!
{Gabrielle is irate as she stands, swinging wildly for a clothesline, but Jenn ducks, and starts firing off right hands that stun Gabrielle. Jenn tries for a whip, but Gabrielle reverses. On the rebound, Jenn is able to pull off a tilt-a-whirl headscissors! Gabrielle gets up stunned and Jenn hits a dropkick then sends her back down. Jenn gets to her feet and Gabrielle staggers up. Jenn tries for another whip to the corner, but Gabrielle reverses. Gabrielle charges, but eats two boots to the face for her troubles. Jenn then boosts herself on the second rope and hooks Gabrielle’s head, and connects with a tornado DDT! Jenn makes the cover hooking the leg! 1……2….. Gabrielle rolls the shoulder!}
Troy Franklin: Jennifer is still fighting! She's not going away.
Duke King: I don't think Gabrielle expected this much fight!
{Jenn is now frustrated as she stands. Gabrielle crawls to the corner, and gets up, only to meet a clothesline in the corner from Jenn. Jenn then climbs the ropes in front of Gabrielle, and begins the ten punches!}
Crowd: 1…..2……3……4
{Gabrielle however is able to counter and takes Jenn down with a powerbomb from the corner! Gabrielle then stacks up Jenn for the pin, kicking her feet out and hooking them on the ropes for leverage! 1…….2…….3NO! Jenn is able to kick out!}
Troy Franklin: And Jenn still kicks out! She's got to be running on fumes at this point!
Duke King: Gabrielle is throwing everything at her! Jenn's got to have a breaking point though.
{Gabrielle uses the lopes to gets to her feet. She signals that she’s going to end the match and pulls a stunned Jenn to her feet. She hooks Jenn’s arms and spins, looking for the Vanity breaker, but Jenn spins out and counters into a swinging neckbreaker of her own! Jenn looks down at Gabrielle and begins heading to the top.}
Troy Franklin: Jennifer is looking to finish this match off!
{Jenn gets to the top rope and balances, but Gabrielle is getting back up. Jenn waits, and jumps off, but Gabrielle catches her in mid-air with a double knee facebuster! Jenn goes down in a heap as Gabrielle crawls into the cover! 1……2……3NO! Jenn barely rolls the shoulder.}
Troy Franklin: WHAT A COUNTER! and Jennifer STILL kicks out!
Duke King: But look at the look on Gabrielle's face, she's pissed!
{Gabrielle stands up infuriated. She gets on top Jenn and begins punching her repeatedly, forcing Jenn to get her arms up to block. Jenn is able to reach out and grabs the ropes, but Gabrielle won’t stop, and refuses to listen. She does get off, but pulls Jenn to the center of the ring, and re-applies, the STF! Jenn tries to fight, and tries to fight, but in the end, the pain is too much and Jenn has to tap out!}
Beth Harris: Here is your winner .... Gabrielle Salinas!
Troy Franklin: And Gabrielle has advanced.
Duke King: Jennifer just could not withstand that STF any longer. That first one almost put her out, she couldn't handle a second one.
Troy Franklin: Wait, she won't let go of the hold!
{The referee continues to try to tell Gabrielle to let go, but she refuses to do so. Jenn screams in pain as Gabrielle won’t let go. The bell keeps ringing, but Gabrielle don’t bother listening. She keeps the hold cranked on, as Jenn taps out again. Eventually, Jenn stops tapping, and stops moving altogether. Gabrielle still won’t break the hold!}
Troy Franklin: What the hell?! Break the damn hold! She already won the match!
Duke King: I told you, that look in her eyes, she's snapped!
{Gabrielle is raging as the referee’s pour from the back and try to get her off Jenn, Jenn is passed out in the hold, as the original ref throws up his hands, and signals for the bell. He goes outside to talk to Beth as the refs are finally able to get her off with physical force.}
Troy Franklin: And finally, the hold is broken.
Beth Harris: Ladies and Gentlemen, may I have your attention please... Due to Gabrielle Salinas' refusal to obey the officials instructions, he has REVERSED his official decision! Therefore, your winner .... Jennifer Drew!
Troy Franklin: And Gabrielle just cost herself the finals!
{Gabrielle is still enraged as Roxi Johnson is forced to make an appearance to maintain order. She has to physically remove Gabrielle from the ring, as more referees, and additional security hit the ring and prevent Gabrielle from doing any more damage. Roxi gets in the ring and checks on Jenn along with medical staff.}
Troy Franklin: Jennifer Drew is the winner, but... You have to wonder if she'll even be able to compete at this point...
Duke King: Gabrielle had that submission locked in, turning the hip of Jennifer, wrenching her neck and head... Gabrielle may have eliminated Jennifer one way or another now.
Troy Franklin: She'd already won the match Duke, there was no call for Gabrielle to do what she did. Thank goodness Roxi and the officials got out here before too much more damage was done.
{Jennifer starts coming back around as Roxi and the Medical staff check her out. Jennifer is helped outside the ring and Roxi assists her to the back as the fans cheer.}
Troy Franklin: Folks, we've got one more semi-finals match coming up, and that's Nyako and Evelyn Taylor.
Duke King: And at this point, it may be the match to crown the Queen of the Ring. If Jennifer Drew cannot continue, then the winner of this match would automatically win the tournament...
Troy Franklin: We'll have to see what happens... Here we go.
Beth Harris: This contest, is the second semi finals match in the Queen of the Ring tournament!
{“You’re Going Down” starts playing and Nyako emerges from the back to a mixture of boos and cheers. She starts down the ramp way scanning the crowd before turning her attention the the empty ring or her opponent inside and walks slowly down to the end on the ramp.
At the end of the ramp she gets a running start and hops up on the apron before climbing through the middle ropes quickly to the inside of the ring. After entering the ring she walks over to a corner and raises her arms in the air with her index fingers pointed at the sky as a few pyrotechnics explode In the ring behind her and the crowd reacts.
She hops down from corner and turns her full attention up the ramp to wait for her opponent to come down.}
Troy Franklin: Nyako was impressive against Jenny Williams, defeating her in a tough match, so is she now the favorite to win the whole thing?
Duke King: In my eyes, yes. I told you I had her picked the whole time. And it may get even easier if Nyako wins this match, because of the situation with Jennifer Drew.
{Evie appears at the top of the ramp, waves to the fans before strutting in time to the music to the ring where she straddles the second rope, blowing a kiss to the fans before getting in, cracking her knuckles and waiting}
Troy Franklin: Evelyn Taylor knocked off Mackenzie Roberts, surprising Mackenzie earlier, so she might have a little luck on her side tonight.
Duke King: Luck is a funny thing her in Vegas, but Evie has a huge mountain to climb.
{The bell sounds as Evie starts jumping up and down, stretching herself out. She circles Nyako, who just stares at her. Evie comes face to face with Nyako, and Nyako pie faces her back. Evie tries to get back in Nyako’s face, but Nyako slaps her HARD across the face, stunning Evie. Nyako grabs Evie by the hair, and simply tosses her across the ring! Nyako flashes a small smile as Evie struggles to get up. Evie does get a blow the gut in, but Nyako shakes it off and again grabs two handfuls of hair and tosses Evie across the ring! Evie clutches her head as Nyako starts stomping her head. Evie covers up, and Nyako begins driving knees into the ribs and side of Evie, as Evie grabs the ropes and forces the ref to come in and separate them.}
Troy Franklin: And Nyako is all over Evie right now.
{Nyako moves back in and lifts Evie to her feet, and hooks her and takes her over with a snap suplex. Nyako stands up and steps on the neck of Evie, choking her with her boot. The ref counts and Nyako steps off at 3. Nyako then mounts Evie and begins raining down punches on Evie, before the ref makes her stop, warning her about closed fists. Evie rolls to the ropes and tries to get up, but Nyako puts her head between the top and middle rope, and grabs another handful of Evie’s hair and pulls back on the rope! The ref counts, and Nyako breaks at 4. Nyako goes right back to Evie’s hair, and again breaks at 4 of the ref’s count. Nyako pulls Evie back to the center of the ring, and hits a nice Northern lights suplex! 1……2…..Evie kicks out.}
Duke King: Nyako is flat out dominating this match right now.
Troy Franklin: Nyako is simply too strong for Evie at this point. Evie has yet to get out of the blocks.
Duke King: And if this continues like this, Nyako will have easy pickings in the finals, If the finals even happen.
{Evie again rolls to the ropes to try and get up, with Nyako seemingly enjoying beating her up. Nyako grabs another handful of hair and pulls Evie to her feet, and then whips her into the ropes, on the rebound, Nyako goes for a clothesline that Evie ducks, Evie then comes back with a hair-pull mat slam! Nayko scrambles up, and Evie takes her down with the hair-pull mat slam again! Evie then boosts herself up on the middle rope behind her, and as Nyako gets up, Evie take her down with a missile dropkick! Evie gets up and boosts herself on the second rope again, and again takes Nyako down with a missile dropkick! Evie scrambles into the cover! 1…….2…. Nyako gets a foot on the rope!}
Troy Franklin: Now Evelyn is getting into this match!
Duke King: She needs to keep this up, Nyako has been putting a beating on her up until this point.
{Nyako slowly gets up still stunned, and Evie is there to meet her with a right hand. Evie connects with another, then backs Nyako into the corner, and unleashes a series of forearms, rocking Nyako with each one. When she’s finished, Nyako staggers out of the corner, and Evie snap mares her over and delivers a beautiful rolling neck snap! Evie makes the cover! 1……2….. Nyako kicks out.}
Troy Franklin: Near fall from Evie.
{Evie reaches over to grab Nyako, but Nyako strikes with a throat thrust that catches Evie flush. Evie gets up and stumbles into the corner gasping for air. Nyako gets up and runs a knee into Evie’s ribs, before putting her boot up, and choking the life out of Evie with it in the corner. The ref counts and Nyako breaks on 4. Nyako then hits an elbow to the back of the neck of Evie, and then hooks her and delivers a nice snap suplex. Rolling to her feet, and keeping the suplex hooked, Nyako tries for a second one, but Evie blocks. Nyako quickly let’s go, and hits another hard shot to the back of Evie’s neck. Nyako then whips Evie in to the ropes, and goes for a clothesline on the rebound, but Evie ducks, and when Nyako turns around, she is NAILED by a superkick! Nyako goes down in a heap and Evie makes the cover! 1…….2…..Nyako rolls the shoulder!}
Troy Franklin: Superkick out of nowhere! and Evie is still in this thing!
Duke King: She's a gamer, I'll give her that.
{Evie slowly gets up and pulls Nyako up, and tries to lift Nyako onto her shoulders! Nyako however, slips off the back, and hooks Evie from behind in a full nelson and tosses her with a Dragon Suplex! Nyako keeps the bridge! 1……2……3NO! Evie rolls out!}
Troy Franklin: And somehow, Evie Taylor kicks out!
Duke King: I don't know how! Nyako dropped her right on her head!
{Nyako slowly gets up, annoyed at Evie. Nayko begins taunting her to get up, slapping Evie in the back of the head. She motions for Evie to get up, and Evie slowly does so. Nyako rears back for a head kick, but Evie ducks! Nyako spins around, and Evie pushes her towards the ropes, and on the rebound, catches her with a spinning heel kick, that takes Nyako through the ropes to the floor!}
Troy Franklin: Evie just won't quit! She's going for everything here!
{Evie stays on the mat, worn out from the match. Nyako slowly gets up on the outside, stunned as she rolls back into the ring. Evie gets back to her feet and She unloads on Nyako with a right hand. Then another, then another. Backing Nyako into the ropes, Evie goes a whip, but Nyako reverses, Evie however twists out of that, and pulls Nyako in for a Samoan Drop! Evie gets up as Nyako stumbles up, and Evie hooks her head, and drives it into her knee, with the Coup de Grâce! Evie makes the cover! 1……2…….3!}
Troy Franklin: Evie Taylor did it! She beat Nyako!
Duke King: I can't believe this! Nyako dominated this match, but that Evie Taylor snuck in and somehow was able to pull this off
{Evie slumps off of Nyako, exhausted. Her music plays as she rolls onto her back still worn out, and hurting. She rolls out of the ring clutching the back of her head as she walks back up the ramp in victory.}
Troy Franklin: Evie Taylor is now in the finals against Jennifer Drew! Two debuting wrestlers here, have earned their way to the finals!
Duke King: Well, there's still a question as to whether or not the finals will even happen Troy. Remember, Jennifer Drew is injured!
Troy Franklin: That is true... Coming up next folks... the Marquee championship is on the line!
Beth Harris: The following contest, set for one fall, is for the LAW Marquee Championship!
{A light show begins near the entrance curtain, with yellow, blue, red and orange spotlights swirling around in a dizzying pattern. As the initial reverb-heavy vocals of 'Blow' begin, the focus spotlight stops dead in the centre, in time for Summer St. Clair to step into it as the electronic beat begins. Followed closely by publicist and associate Bambi Huntington, the blonde then swaggers down the ramp, royally ignoring the lovestruck fanboys on either side of her. She motions for the cameraman to keep the focus on her as she poses against the ring ropes, then on top of the ring ropes, then midway into the ring...you get the idea. When she finally steps onto the canvas, she spends the precious seconds before the bell not limbering up, but rather yelling at Bambi, for offences real or imagined.}
Troy Franklin: The champion will face a true test tonight Duke.
Duke King: That she does, but don't sell her short, she's got a lot of skill, and even a little luck on her side.
{"Frontline" By Pillar begins over the loud speakers. and Gabby emerges from the backstage. She smiles at the crowd, and holds her arms up. She begins a light job down the aisle slapping fans five along the way. She climbs up the steps and poses for a moment before entering through the ropes. She removes her POW/MIA shirt and begins lightly stretching.}
Troy Franklin: Gabby Camacho has been nothing short of impressive lately, have great battles with all her opponents. She earned this match.
Duke King: But now she's in a big match situation, this is a championship match, and she needs to step it up one level higher.
{The bell rings as Gabby begins advancing towards Summer, but Summer starts running around the ring, with Gabby half-heartedly giving chase. Summer slows down, and then the two lock up. Gabby instantly drops down in a fireman’s carry, and slaps on an arm bar. Summer kicks her legs up into the air, and brings Gabby down into a headscissors. Gabby kips up to escape. Gabby turns to meet Summer, but Summer shoots a shot straight to the gut of Gabby to stop her. Summer gets up and wrings the arm of Gabby, but Gabby cartwheels and reverses, and pulls Summer in and hooks her, and lifts her and takes her over with a nice vertical suplex. Gabby goes for the cover 1…..2…Summer kicks out.}
Troy Franklin: Early cover by the challenger, and the champion had better be aware of that kind of thing.
Duke King: It's early, Troy. And Summer is not going to be beaten that quickly!
{Gabby gets up and grabs Summer in a waistlock, and Summer screams at the top of her lungs, lunging for the ropes. She makes it, and the ref has to step in and force the break. Gabby manages to use her strength and pull Summer off the rope, and then turn away from the ropes, but Summer throws a desperation elbow that catches Gabby in the face. Summer turns and hits a dropkick that sends Gabby through the ropes backwards, where she falls out of the ring, backflipping onto her stomach.}
Troy Franklin: Ouch! Nasty spill there taken by Gabby!
{Summer gets up and screams at the referee to count Gabby out. He begins the count 1……2……..3……..4….. Gabby is back up, and Summer reaches through the ropes to get her, Gabby overpowers her again and pulls her onto the floor by her hair!}
Troy Franklin: And the challenger is undaunted!
Duke King: Gabby is a fighter, no question about it!
{Gabby picks up Summer and tosses her back into the ring. Gabby goes to follow her, but Bambi runs in and tries to attack her, Gabby sees it out of the corner of her eye and meets a charging Bambi with a clothesline! Gabby turns back to get into the ring, but Summer is there with a handful of hair. The ref makes her break, but this allows Bambi the chance to get back up, as Gabby stands on the apron, Bambi yanks the leg of Gabby, dropping her off and smashing Gabby’s face against the apron. Gabby goes down in a heap.}
Troy Franklin: C'mon now! Bambi with blatant outside interference!
Duke King: The referee is being distracted. Brilliant on the part of Summer right there!
{Summer exits the ring as Bambi races to a different side of the ring. Summer picks up Gabby and tosses her back into the ring, Gabby stumbles up, and Summer hits a nice clothesline before going for the cover. 1…..2…..Gabby rolls the shoulder. Gabby sits up holding her face, and Summer is quick to capitalize, locking in a body scissors and also a reverse chin lock, pulling back for all she’s worth.}
Troy Franklin: Summer locking in that submission now.
Duke King: Summer is now going to start sapping that strength right out of Gabby. She needs to because Gabby is obviously stronger.
{Gabby refuses to submit, and tries to pull herself towards the rope, but Summer continually cranks back on Gabby’s neck and chin, stopping her progress. Gabby tries rolling, but Summer still stops her from countering. The ref again asks if Gabby quits, and Gabby wags her finger “no” as she tries to find a way out of the move.}
Troy Franklin: Gabby refuses to give up!
{The fans begin stomping and clapping as Gabby tries to escape. She again inches towards the ropes, but Summer cranks back. Finally, in an amazing show of strength, Gabby does a reverse pushup lifting both her and Summer off the ground! Gabby plants her feet on the mat and begins walking still with Summer in the air, and stops when she reaches the rope.The ref forces the break.}
Troy Franklin: And Gabby makes it to the ropes, but what strength she has!
Duke King: That was an amazing feat of strength, but how much did it take out of Gabby?
{Summer gets up stunned and grabs Gabby by the hair. Gabby however breaks out, and punches Summer right in the mouth! Summer stumbles back, and Gabby charges and hits her with a clothesline. Summer gets up, and get one more. Summer stumbles up again, and walks into a discus clothesline this time! Summer goes down and Gabby covers hooking the leg! 1…..2…..Summer rolls her shoulder. Gabby questions the count, and this allows Summer the time she needs to recover. When Gabby turns back, Summer escapes the ring under the bottom rope. Summer hurriedly grabs the Marquee title and motions to Bambi that they are leaving!}
Troy Franklin: What's this about? Is the champion leaving?!
Duke King: Hey, live to fight another day Troy!
{Gabby exits the ring chases down Bambi and Summer, knocking Bambi down and nailing Summer with a forearm. Gabby then leads Summer back to the ring, and Summer still has the Marquee title in her hand. Gabby prepares to throw her back into the ring, but Bambi races up and snatches the Marquee title from Summer, distracting Gabby for a few seconds. Gabby turns around and is again nailed by a clothesline.}
Troy Franklin: AGAIN Bambi interferes in this match!
Duke King: Bambi was taking the Marquee title, she saved Gabby from possibly having it used on her, or vise-versa with Summer!
{Summer rolls into the ring to collect herself. Gabby slowly gets up and rolls into the ring, but Summer is right there, driving hard knees to Gabby’s back. Gabby gets to her knees, and Summer stomps her hard on the back, putting her right back down. Summer then insults Gabby by walking over her, taking a moment to pose while standing on Gabby’s back. The crowd boos and Gabby gets back up, but Summer nails her with a stiff European uppercut, followed quickly by another. Summer leans Gabby against the ropes, and smirks as she whips Gabby into the ropes. Summer ducks her head for a backdrop, but Gabby kicks her to straighten her up. Gabby charges, and when Summer sticks her arm out for a clothesline attempt, Gabby ducks behind Summer and grabs her shoulders, falling back into a backstabber! Gabby makes the cover, but Bambi jumps on the apron again! The ref yells at her to get off, but Gabby has had enough and grabs Bambi by the hair! Summer slowly gets back up and tries for a cheap shot, but Gabby moves and Summer nails Bambi! Bambi falls into the ring as Summer turns right into a kick to the gut, and then a Lowrider [Kickout DDT!] The referee attends to Bambi as she is slowly rolls out of the ring, in the meantime Gabby has Summer pinned for an 8 count! The ref finally turns around and counts! 1……2…….3NO! Summer manages to roll a shoulder.}
Troy Franklin: Gabby had this match won! Bambi saved her, although inadvertently!
Duke King: Gabby attacked Bambi!
{Gabby slaps the mat in frustration, and curses under her breath. She picks up a reeling Summer and goes for a whip, but Summer twists around and rakes Gabby’s eyes. Gabby stumbles around blindly as she turns back to Summer who hits a knee to the gut, then another. Gabby drops to her knees after the third one and Summer backs up against the ropes. Summer measures Gabby for the Heatstroke [Axe Kick] and goes fir hit, but Gabby moves out of the way! Summer turns and is lifted onto the shoulders of Gabby!}
Troy Franklin: Killzone coming up!
{Gabby prepares for the Killzone [TKO] but Bambi AGAIN jumps onto the apron. She jumps off as Gabby approaches, but Gabby reaches through the ropes to get at her. Bambi tries to turn and run, but Gabby grabs her by the hair. Summer comes in and nails Gabby, dropping her to her knees, laying against the middle rope. Summer hits the ropes and goes to attack Gabby, but Gabby moves and Summer's foot hits Bambi! Summer turns and is lifted on to Gabby's shoulder's again! Gabby then connects with the Killzone! Gabby makes the cover! 1......2......3!}
Beth Harris Here is your winner .... And NEW LAW Marquee Champion .... Gabriella Camacho!
Troy Franklin: We've got a new champion!
Duke King: Some how! Some way! Gabby Camacho earns the Marquee Championship!
{Gabby rolls off of Summer and sits on her knees She is handed the Marquee Championship and clutches it to her chest, proud of this moment. Gabby stands up and hold the title up to massive cheers.}
Troy Franklin: That right there, is a proud champion.
Duke King: Gabby overcame everything Summer and Bambi
{Gabby parades around the ring with the championship, and then exits the ring, carrying the title to the back.}
Troy Franklin: It's a great night for Gabby Camacho!
Troy Franklin: Well fans, we have a special treat for you coming up. We have an unannounced match that will feature the LAW in-ring debut of a controversial megastar… Kelly Fox.
Duke King: We were told that Kelly insisted on having a match here tonight and it appears that Lucas Dupree has obliged her request. Me personally… I think she probably greased his pockets some.
Troy Franklin: Wouldn’t be surprising, we know how deep the pockets of Kelly Fox are… but WHY would she insist on a match here tonight? I don’t understand these motives.
Duke King: Obviously has something to do with sending a message to her sister… just like everything we’ve seen Kelly do so far in LAW.
Troy Franklin: That would certainly be in line with her recent actions… I guess we’ll see soon enough as her challenger Jill Turner is in the ring waiting for Kelly’s arrival.
Duke King: Jill is a product of the LAW training center, getting her first taste of action and what better way to do so in this sink or swim situation.
Troy Frainklin: She has the size advantage by a large margin so this should at least be able to use that against the much smaller Kelly.
{The Lights go off as the music begins playing, when the lyrics hit pyrotechnics explode up the ramp into the entrance way and then one big explosion on all four corners of the stage. The lights click on but with a pink hue as Kelly walks out onto the stage with her arms spread, playing to the crowd. She walks to the ring confidently as she smiles at the fans who might be jeering her from the nearby crowd. She slides into the ring and climbs the nearest turnbuckle where she spreads her arms again with an arrogant smirk before laughing and waving off their boos. Kelly jumps down and waits for the match to begin.}
Troy Franklin: Here we go, Kelly looks ready and it appears that neither of her two friends have joined her at ringside.
Duke King: Like I said, she is trying to make a point here… have to prove it yourself.
{The match begins as Jill Turner tries to lock up with Fox but instead takes a quick toe kick right to the stomach. Kelly steps backwards and uses the ropes for prepulsion and flies forward with a running forearm that sends Turner flat on her back. Jill quickly turns over and tries to get back to her feet but Kelly quickly puts her back down with a drop kick. Kelly and Jill both are back on their feet, Jill charges toward Kelly but Fox leaps into the air and uses Jill’s momentum against her by driving her into the mat onto the top of her head with the spike hurricanrana! Kelly jumps up and sprints to the turnbuckle where she spreads her arms out as the crowd boos.}
Troy Franklin: Little known fact… Jill Turner is the younger sister of Jimmy Turner… a forgetable name in the wrestling business whose only notable accomplishment was being the janitor of Kelly’s former wrestling company before he tragically passed away during a broadcast.
Duke King: So what you’re saying here is that Jill has a little extra something to fight for, maybe a little revenge for her brother?
Troy Franklin: Yes. but Kelly sure isn’t making this easy. Jill hasn’t had a single bit of offense thus far.
{Jill holds her head in pain and looks frustrated as she turns over and gets back to her feet. She notices Kelly in the corner showboating and it only upsets her more. Turner charges towards the corner but just before she gets there Kelly flips off backwards and lands on her feet and Jill goes in chest first! Jill, holding her chest in pain, stumbles backwards and Kelly takes a huge handfull of hair and pulls her down into her knee with the hairpull backbreaker! Jill screams out in pain as Kelly gets up and spins around smiling again. Jill turnsover and gets to one knee where Kelly comes in all of a sudden and shining yakuza kick! Kelly hooks a leg and covers 1...2… but Kelly lifts Jill’s shoulders off the mat before three!}
Troy Franklin: What was that… looks like she had this won and instead breaks up the fall herself!
Duke King: She’s incredibly confident.
Troy Franklin: Yeah…. confident is the word for it.
{Kelly gets on her knees, smiling, right above where Jill is pushing herself up, mocking Jill as she struggles to her feet. Turner looks upset but continues to try and make it up. Before she can however, Kelly reaches forward and quickly slaps the taste out of Jill’s mouth. Kelly then jumps to her feet and demands Jill get up and face her. Jill angrily makes it up to her feet. She huffs and puffs and like a raging bull charges towards Kelly. Kelly ducks under it and when Jill turns around KELLY KUTTER (K2)!}
Troy Franklin: Kelly Kutter, out of nowhere.
Duke King: I do believe she never saw it coming.
Troy Franklin: Wait… what is Kelly doing now?
{Kelly doesn’t flip Jill over for the pin, instead she uses her athleticism and instead flips backwards and onto Jill’s back where she repositions herslef and EMBRACE THE KNITE lock!}
Troy Franklin: Oh come on Kelly, is this really necassary?
{Jill can’t really hold on at all, and with what little strength she has left taps out.}
Duke King: Well necessary or not, it got the victory.
{Kelly jumps to her feet amidst the boos and as her theme begins to play. She stands there as if she’s getting admiration instead of boos and soaks up the ambiance. She looks down and sees Jill Turner moving and for some reason this seems to amuse her so Kelly begins laying kicks and stomps into the body of Turner as the boos pick up louder.}
Troy Franklin: Let it go Kelly, you’ve won.
{Suddenly the boos turn to cheers as Zelda comes running out of the back.}
Troy Franklin: YES! Here comes Zelda to put an end to this.
{EMF coming running down the ramp and Kelly just stands there looking at them as they go to slide into the ring, but before they can stand up they are grabbed by the legs and pulled right back out of the ring. Jaymie Boone and Ashlie Helms have jumped out of the crowd, seemingly out of nowhere and have yanked Zelda from the ring. Jaymie Boone throws Zelda back first into the steps and Ashlie quickly pulls her away and locks her up, pinning both of Zelda’s arms behind her back. Jaymie comes over and helps while Kelly slides out of the ring and shakes her head at Zelda..}
Zelda: Let me go! I’ll get you Kelly!
Kelly: Really Sydney? This is the best you’ve got? This was your plan? Just run down here and jump me for what The Alliance did to Skye two weeks ago? You really think I wouldn’t have Jaymie and Ashlie here watching my back knowing that you wanted revenge? This is exactly what I’m talking about! You’ve grown weak! Can’t you see that with us behind you, with the Alliance of Violence at your call situations like this would never happen again. just think how angry you are right now that you are powerless to get at me, jus think how infuriating it is to have me mocking you to your face right now! Now imagine yourself standing where I’m at and how great it must feel to see somebody so powerless before you…
Zelda: I’ll never join you! I’m better than you and I don’t need these goombas to help me!
{Kelly looks annoyed as she walks towards Zelda, and then suddenly slaps her little sister-in-law as hard as she can causing Zelda to go weak kneed and grimace in pain as Ashlie and Jaymie hold her up.}
Kelly: See what you made me do!? Dont’ be an idiot Zelda! Don’t make me go any further… end this now.
{Zelda fumes but doesn’t say a word as she just turns away from looking at her sister.}
Kelly: Fine. Have it your way. I already have the contract from Lucas signed. Next LAW event… you and your little friend will be putting the titles on the line against Jaymie and I… when we are done with you two… you’ll wish that you had accepted this offer sooner. It could have been you and I holding those titles together as a beautiful knitemare… but instead… the AoV is going to put an end to EMF. I hope Skye is ready for the show.
{Kelly signals at the girls and they take Zelda nd throw her to the ground before their turn their backs and follow Kelly. Despite the fact that all three have their backs turned and are walking away Zelda lays on the ground and angrily just glares at them as they walk away.}
Troy Franklin: What is going on here? They just let her go and Zelda isn’t fighting back…
Duke King: She can’t fight them… she knows that, she’s powerless just like she will be in two weeks when the AoV takes those tag team titles away from her.
Troy Franklin: Whatever you say Duke...
Beth Harris: Ladies and Gentlemen, The following is the finals of the Queen of the Ring tournament!
{Evie appears at the top of the ramp, waves to the fans before strutting in time to the music to the ring where she straddles the second rope, blowing a kiss to the fans before getting in, cracking her knuckles and waiting}
Troy Franklin: Evie Taylor is two down right now. And only one to go.
Duke King: But that one may not even make it out here. Evie may just win this by forfeit...
{Evie paces back and forth as The Takedown” begins over the PA. There's a long wait, smoke build up, and smoke and everything, but no Jennifer Drew. Finally, her music cuts out, and there are boos.}
Troy Franklin: Looks like Jennifer's not coming...
Duke King: Well, they'll give her another shot, but from the looks of things, Jennifer's night is over.
{Finally, "Fighter" begins and Lucas Dupree makes his way to the ring, a concerned look on his face, as he enters the ring with Evie wondering what's going on.}
Lucas Dupree: I really, really hate to have to come out here and say this, but unfortunately, Jennifer Drew was eliminated from the tournament shortly after advancing.
{Boos.}
Lucas Dupree: I know that Jennifer is not happy about it, I'm not happy about it, Evie, I know you're not happy about it. Because you people paid to see a Queen crowned. But, it was determined by trainers and doctors, and everyone else that Jennifer was deemed unable to compete.
{More boos.}
Lucas Dupree: So, it was determined that the match between Nyako and Evelyn Taylor that took place a short while ago, was going to decide the winner. Therefore, the winner of the Queen of the ring, is Evelyn Taylor!
{Mixed reaction for the announcement.}
Lucas Dupree: Now, In regards to the runner up, situation. Nyako officially sits at the runner-up due to the circumstances. Jennifer did rightfully advance, but the actions of Gabrielle Salinas forced her out of action for tonight. So, it has been determined, that Nyako, and Jennifer Drew will compete at LAW 14 to decide the rightful number one contender. However, at LAW 13, Jennifer will face Gabrielle Salias one on one!
{Another Mixed reaction.}
Lucas Dupree: So, At anti-climatic as this is, Congratulations, to you Evelyn.
{Lucas appluads Evelyn as he exits the ring. As the crowd cheers at the crowning of the new Queen of the Ring, “Suffocate” by Cold plays and the fans immediately start to boo. Sidney Grey walks out, ignoring the crowd as she makes a beeline towards the ring.}
Duke King: Troy, Sid said that she would come out and confront whoever won that match…it looks like she is making good on that threat!
{Sidney snatches a microphone from ringside and rolls in as the fans boo loudly. Sidney gets to her feet and glares at Evelyn…pacing back and forth as she mocks applause of her own.}
Sidney Grey: Well now…look at you…you won the whole thing and now you are standing here as the Queen of LAW…Queen of the Ring!
{The fans cheer, if not for love of the winner…for their hatred of Sidney. Sidney gets right into Evie's face…staring her in the eyes.}
Sidney Grey: Congratulations…
{Sidney rears back and smacks Evie hard across her face and the sound echoes through the arena like a shotgun blast. The new Queen goes reeling back in the corner. Sidney turns to the crowd screaming…}
Sidney Grey: I SHOULD BE QUEEN!! I SHOULD HAVE BEEN IN THAT MATCH!! I AM YOUR QUEEN!! I SHOULD BE THE QUEEN OF THE RING!!
{Sidney turns around and she is turned inside out by a devastating spear that sends her tumbling outside the ring and down to the floor as she holds her midsection, writhing in pain. Evie throws up her hands and the crowd roars.}
Duke King: So much for that! Our new Queen is having none of it!
Troy Franklin: That is not likely to shut Sidney up for long…but she’s silent for the moment and the new Queen reigns supreme!
Beth Harris: Ladies and Gentlemen, this is the main event of the evening! It's set for one fall, and it is for the LAW Championship!
{The Doc comes out of the curtain and walks to the ring, she is hot and has sweet jugs.}
{“Monster by Paramore” begins to blast all over the speakers. As it does so we are able to see Kate Steele-Warren emerge on the entrance ramp. She has a guitar in her hand but she doesn’t even bother to strum at it. She shows absolutely no emotion before she decides to hand her guitar to her husband Todd Warren who escorts her. She walks down to the ring locked in a trance as fans eagerly stretch out their arms to get the redhead to slap their hands. However what they get in return is nothing. No screaming, no reaction, just Kate simply walking to the ring. Todd smiles as he takes her place and tries to slap their hands but the fans pull back as they give him dirty looks.
She finally makes her way to the ring and once she get’s there she quickly slides into the ring. The fans roar with Steele chants but she just bounces around for a bit not acknowledging them as her mind is focus on the match itself.}
Troy Franklin: This is it Duke. This is what it's all about.
Duke King: Finally, Kate Steele and the Doc will finally hook up. This has been highly anticipated for close to 2 months!
{The bell rings and the crowd roars in approval as Kate and Doc circle one another. Doc begins pulling on the ropes to stretch before continuing to circle Kate. They each put out their hands, trying to gain position on the other. Doc eventually moves in on Kate, and lock fingers momentarily and Doc overpowers Kate back into a corner, the ref steps in and forces the break, which Doc does cleanly. The two step back to the center of the ring and circle again. This time, they do lock up and Doc goes behind with a waistlock. Kate gets her left arm in between Doc and her waist, and spins into a headlock. Cranking on the move, Kate forces Doc to one knee. Doc is able to get back to a standing position and quickly drop toe holds Kate to the ground. Doc tries to go for the grounded headlock, but Kate rolls away before it can happen. Kate gets to her feet and she and Doc circle again, and lock up. Kate gets another headlock, and Doc forces her against the ropes, where Doc throws a couple of forearms to the gut of Kate. Kate responds with the stiff shot to the head of Doc that sends her staggering back. Kate moves forward and nails Doc with another stiff right, then leans her against the ropes and on the rebound takes Doc down with a flying clothesline!}
Troy Franklin: Nice clothesline by Kate.
Duke King: That could be the difference. Kate has been in these big matches before, but the Doc is a rookie in more ways than one in this environment.
{Kate gets up and locks on a front face lock on the Doc as she get up. Kate squeezes, possibly looking for a guillotine choke. Doc counters with right hands to the gut, but Kate continues to squeeze. Doc responds with a modified bear hug, causing discomfort to Kate’s back. Kate continues to squeeze, but Doc then gets a rush of adrenaline and picks up Kate and runs her back-first into the corner. Kate releases and falls to her knees, clutching her back, while Doc checks her throat and neck, gaining air back in her body.}
Troy Franklin: Doc with a nice counter!
Duke King: Kate did take a lot of air out of the Doc early in this match, we'll see how much of an effect it takes out of him.

Kate gets up to a standing position and then flips and kicks Doc right in the gut and doubles her over.}

{"Sinner" by Drowning pool plays and Keira Fisher walks to the ring}

Troy Franklin: Texas Cloverleaf, and Keira's back has got to be screaming in pain!
Duke King: More focus on the back! Gabrielle clearly had a game plan coming in.
{Keira yells out in pain, but does not submit. Keira reaches out for the rope, but she’s too far away. So, she begins dragging Gabrielle towards the ropes, as she inches closer and closer, Gabrielle begins losing her grip on Keira’s legs. Thinking quickly, Gabrielle abandons the cloverleaf, and pulls Keira back away from the ropes a bit and locks in a camel clutch!}
Troy Franklin: And a nice submission switch by Gabrielle Salinas!
Duke King: Still focusing on the back. Gabrielle is impressing me here tonight!
{Keira continues to yell, but still does not submit. Instread, she exerts more energy and crawls towards the ropes, with one last lunge, she makes it, and the referee is forced to break the hold.

{The camera centers on Carmen Diaz as she stands beside Maleek Raheem.}
Carmen Diaz: Mr. Raheem, we understand that you have a huge announcement to make regarding our show tonight. You were on social media on the days leading up to Queen of the Ring saying that you were going to shake things up. Now that we are here, would you like to let the fans know what you have planned?
{Raheem grinned as he rubbed his hands together.}
Maleek Raheem: My pleasure Carmen! As everyone knows, this match tonight between Sidney Grey and Crystal Hilton is gonna be a big one. Both of these women have been out of control and if LAW hopes to have things finally settled between them…they need to make sure that they have complete control of th’ participants. So…tonight, you are lookin’ at the man who will officiate th’ match as special referee!
{Carmen raised her eyebrow at the announcement.}
Carmen Diaz: LAW management has named you special referee in the I Quit match? Can you be impartial in that match?
{He continued to grin, pointing to himself.}
Maleek Raheem: Everything I do is always beyond reproach! I can promise you this Carmen…the woman who wins tonight will deserve it and there will be no doubt about who the better woman is!
{Raheem walks off, leaving Carmen and the fans to wonder about the meaning behind his words.}

Duke King: Yeah, but you can only train so much. And while she's been trained by champions, she's still got to go out there and earn it.
{The bell rings as Mackenzie continues to trash talk Evie as the two circle. They finally lock up and Mackenzie instantly grabs handful of Evie’s hair and leads her back into the corner. The referee forces a clean break, but Mackenzie swings with a wild right, but Evie ducks, and slaps on a headlock, leading Mackenzie out of the corner. Mackenzie looks for an escape, trying to reverse to a top wristlock, but Evie keeps the headlock on. Mackenzie eventually gets her hand in between Evie’s arms, and reverses into a hammerlock, then switches to a headlock of her own. Evie then powers Mackenzie back into the corner, and the ref forces a break. Mackenzie and Evie continue to circle and then go to lock up again, but Mackenzie ducks and applies a waistlock. Evie now looks for an escape and drop down, executing a drop toe hold take takes Mackenzie down. Evie instantly floats into a headlock on the mat. Mackenzie turns her body and reaches her legs and feet out to touch the ropes, but Evie smacks them away. Mackenzie then swings from a seated position to a knee, and then shoots some hard elbows and forearms into Evie’s gut, doubling her over. Mackenzie grabs a front headlock, and drives Evie into the mat. Mackenzie scoots towards the ropes, still having the headlock on, and places her feet on the ropes for added leverage.}
Troy Franklin: And an unfair advantage by Mackenzie there!
Duke King: Troy, glory and honor are on the line right now, you pull out all the stops!
{Evie flails around, but when the ref checks Mackenzie, her feet are now off the ropes. As soon as the ref turns to check on Evie again, Mackenzie places her feet on the ropes. Evie flails around again, but again, when the ref checks, her feet are off the ropes just as fast. Once again the ref goes back to check on Evie, but this time he looks back just as Mackenzie puts her feet on the ropes again. The fans cheers as the ref forces Mackenzie to break the hold. She stands up, proclaiming innocence.}
Troy Franklin: And the referee finally catches on!
{Mackenzie goes back to Evie who is on a knee. Evie fires a right hand into the gut of Mackenzie, who stumbles back. She comes in again, and Evie again nails her. Evie fully stands upright and nails Mackenzie with a hard right that back Mackenzie into the corner. Evie climbs up and raises her fist to the crowd, and then count along with each punch.}
Crowd: 1....2....3.....4....5....6....7....8....9.....10!
{When Evie climbs down the ref warns her about using the fists. When Evie moves back in, Mackenzie instantly rakes her eyes to regain the advantage. Mackenzie then drapes Evie throat-first across the top rope, and then drags Evie down the rope, choking her along the way. Evie drops to her knees gasping for air as Mackenzie taunts the crowd.}
Troy Franklin: Goodness Mackenzie Roberts is going to take every shortcut in the book to win this match!
Duke King: That just proves how bad she wants it.
{Mackenzie turns back as Evie slumps in the corner. Mackenzie starts stomping Evie, before choking her with her boot. After being forced to break, Mackenzie goes right back to stomping Evie in the corner until Evie moves away. Evie tries to stand up, but Mackenzie kicks her square in the ribs to keep down down. Standing over Evie, Mackenzie hooks up Evie in a camel clutch with Evie on her knees. Instead of pulling on the chin of Evie, Mackenzie begins pulling on the nose of Evie instead.}
Troy Franklin: Now Mackenzie trying to rearrange the face of Evelyn!
{The ref admonishes Mackenzie who gives up the hold. Evie leans against the ropes, and Mackenzie hits the opposite ropes, and jumps on Evie, catching her throat on the middle rope. Evie slumps down and Mackenzie makes the cover. 1……2….Evie kicks out. Mackenzie covers again, hooking the leg 1…..2…. Evie kicks out. Mackenzie covers a third time, hooking both legs! 1……2…. Evie kicks out yey again!}
Troy Franklin: Mackenzie cannot keep Evelyn down!
Duke King: But Evie still needs to do something to change this match around, otherwise she won't be kicking out much longer.
{Evie tries to get up, but Mackenzie hits a clubbing forearm. Mackenzie then picks up Evie and hooks her head, before driving her into the mat with a nasty DDT! Mackenzie again covers! 1…..2…..kick out again! Mackenzie is visibly angry, arguing with the ref about the speed of the count. She grabs Evie by the hair and throws her into the corner turnbuckle. Spinning Evie around, Mackenzie hits a series of kicks, and then and out and out blatant choke. The ref has to step in and force the break. Mackenzie then backs up and charges Evie in the corner, but Evie moves out of the way! Mackenzie stumbles out and turns right into a spinning heel kick! Evie makes the cover! 1……2…. Mackenzie kicks out. Mackenzie rolls to her knees to get up, but in humorous moment, Evie stands up and kicks Mackenzie right in the butt! Mackenzie clutches her backside in pain as Evie makes another cover! 1……2…. Mackenzie kicks out.}
Troy Franklin: And now Evie is rolling!
{Mackenzie rolls towards the ropes, attempting to escape the ring, but Evie grabs her foot and pulls her back to the middle of the ring. Evie picks up the free leg of Mackenzie and looks out to the crowd who cheer in approval as Mackenzie begs off. Evie then stomps the mid-section of Mackenzie who rolls around in pain. Mackenzie starts getting up and Evie grabs her by the hair and throws her face-first into the turnbuckle. Evie backs up as Mackenzie turns around in the corner and Evie comes in with a hard clothesline, and then as Mackenzie stumbles out of the corner, she walks into a Samoan Drop! Evie again makes the cover! 1…..2…..Mackenzie rolls the shoulder!}
Troy Franklin: And now it's Mackenzie who needs to turn this thing around!
Duke King: Evie has started to dominate this match, Mackenzie better figure out something quick!
{Evie gets up and goes to pull up Mackenzie, but as soon as Mackenzie reaches her knees, she instantly rakes Evie’s eyes. Evie stumbles around blindly as Mackenzie runs in behind her and takes her down with a running bulldog!}
Troy Franklin: And AGAIN Mackenzie takes the low road!
{Mackenzie stands over Evie who’s on her stomach on the mat. Mackenzie leans down, attempting to go for the Queen Bitch Clutch, but Evie rolls through and counters. The momentum takes Mackenzie into the ropes, and the rebound, Evie jumps up and connects with a Enziguri! Mackenzie stumbles around as Evie catches her with an inside cradle! 1……2…..3!}
Beth Harris Here is your winner .... Evelyn Taylor!
Troy Franklin: Evie gets the win!
Duke King: Mackenzie had everything under control! Evelyn out of nowhere. She might have held the tights.
Troy Franklin: She did not. Another outstanding matchup in the tournament!
{Evie rolls out of the ring as Mackenzie has a stunned look on her face. Mackenzie cannot believe she lost as she complains about it, as Evie walks to the back with a smile on her face.}
Troy Franklin: We have 3 women now as Evelyn Taylor joins Gabrielle Salinas and Jennifer Drew in the semi finals.
Duke King: And now we only have 1 opening round match left. Jenny Williams will take on Nyako.
Beth Harris Ladies and gentlemen, this is the final first round match match in the Queen of the Ring Tournament!
{“You’re Going Down” starts playing and Nyako emerges from the back to a mixture of boos and cheers. She starts down the ramp way scanning the crowd before turning her attention the the empty ring or her opponent inside and walks slowly down to the end on the ramp.
At the end of the ramp she gets a running start and hops up on the apron before climbing through the middle ropes quickly to the inside of the ring. After entering the ring she walks over to a corner and raises her arms in the air with her index fingers pointed at the sky as a few pyrotechnics explode In the ring behind her and the crowd reacts.
She hops down from corner and turns her full attention up the ramp to wait for her opponent to come down.}
Troy Franklin: Nyako can claim victories over Miyoko Oshiro and most notably the Doc, albeit via disqualification. She's been impressive no doubt.
Duke King: Two matches and two wins, can she keep it going against Jenny Williams though?
{Smile by Avril Lavgine begins to blast all over the speakers and as it does we are treated to Jennifer Famularo along with Xander Famularo emerging from behind the curtain. She grins as she bounces out clapping the hands of the fans that are cheering her on as Xander just supports her walking down the aisle closely behind showing absolutely no sign of emotion. Xander stands by ringside as Jenny quickly slides in the ring. She slowly walks to a turnbuckle where she lifts one foot over it. She seductively moves her body to the side before throwing her arms up in the air pulling herself away. She takes her hate breeder t shirt off and throws it into the crowd as she bounces around bubbly.}
Troy Franklin: And here we go, final match of the first round!
{The bell rings and Nyako instantly charges Jenny and begins nailing her with forearms, completely catching Jenny off-guard. Nayko grabs Jenny and tosses her into the turnbuckle head-first a couple of times. Another hard shot keeps Jenny stunned as Nyako hits the ropes and nails her with a flying back elbow. Jenny goes down and scrambles up, only to catch a stiff side kick to the gut, then sends her back into the corner. Nyako charges, but Jenny gets the boot up and catches Nyako coming in. Nyako charges again, but Jenny this time gets both boots up and catches Nayko again. Nayko falls back as Jenny boosts herself onto the middle rope. As Nayko gets up, Jenny flies off with a missile dropkick that sends Nyako down again. Nyako stumbles up, and Jenny runs at her, leaps into the air, and then takes Nyako over with a hurricanrana! Jenny stands up and takes a bow, and fans cheer the action as Nyako is stunned.}
Troy Franklin: Jenny is lightning fast!
Duke King: Nyako must slow down the pace, or Jenny will make this a quick match!
{Jenny grabs Nyako by the hair and pulls her to a standing position, and wrings the arm. But, it doesn’t last long as Nyako spins out, and lands hard elbow to Jenny’s chest. Jenny fires back, but the stronger strikes of Nyako win out as the trade, with Nyako backing Jenny into the corner with the force of her blows. Nyako grabs the arm of Jenny and tries to whip her across to the opposite corner, but Jenny reverses, and follows Nayko in with a hard clothesline. Jenny then tries to whip Nyako back to the other side, but Nyako goes for the reversal, but Jenny reverses back, and lifts Nyako and drops her face-first into the turnbuckle. Nyako stumbles back into a nice German suplex! Jenny keeps the bridge! 1……2…. Nyako rolls out.}
Troy Franklin: And right now, Nyako is having her problems keeping Jenny grounded!
{Jenny motions to the crowd as she steps out onto the apron. They cheer as she begins climbing, but Nyako is back on her feet before Jenny makes it all the way up. Jenny sees then and when Nyako gets on the turnbuckle, Jenny pushes her back down. But Nyako gets up quickly, and jumps up with a nasty kick to the head that stuns Jenny. Nyako then grabs Jenny by the hair and flings her off the turnbuckle. Jenny slowly gets up, and Nyako scoops her into powerslam position, walks to the corner and hits the snake eyes. Nyako hits the ropes and then catches a dazed Jenny with a running knee lift. Nyako quickly makes the cover hooking the leg. 1……2….. Jenny kicks out.}
Troy Franklin: A close call there, and now Nyako is beginning to turn it up.
Duke King: And this is what she has to do Troy. She's obviously stronger than Jenny, she's got to punish her with those strikes.
{Jenny rolls towards the ropes, and leans against them back-first. Still dazed, she gets caught by Nyako against the rope, and Nyako begins driving hard knees into Jenny’s face. Nyako pulls Jenny up and snapmares her over, and then hits the ropes and drives another hard knee into Jenny’s face. Jenny goes down and looks out of it. Nyako makes the cover! 1……2….. Jenny rolls the shoulder.}
Troy Franklin: Man, Nyako has some powerful strikes!
{Nyako stands up and stomps Jenny on the mat to keep her there. Nyako then steps out onto the apron, and begins climbing the turnbuckles herself. Nyako slowly gets to the top, but Jenny is already back up and connects on the unsuspecting Nyako with a springboard dropkick! Nayko is stunned and crotches herself on the top rope. Jenny begins climbing and readies Nyako for a superplex! Nyako blocks, grabbing onto the top turnbuckle. Nyako hits hard shots to the gut and pushes Jenny off the top rope. Nyako collects herself, and climbs to the top, Jenny stands up as Nyako flies off for a flying clothesline, but Jenny gets out of the way! Nyako comes down hard on her stomach as Jenny crouches, waiting. Nyako slowly gets up, and Jenny hits the ropes and springboards again, hitting another dropkick that takes Nyako out of the ring to the floor!}
Troy Franklin: Springboard dropkick, and Nyako is on the floor!
Duke King: Jenny's on the move again!
{Nyako lays on the floor and Jenny motions to the crowd who cheer in approval. Nyako starts getting up on the outside and Jenny hits the ropes and flies over with a tope con hilo on the floor on Nyako!}
Troy Franklin: Tope Con Hilo!
{Both Jenny and Nyako are down after the dive. The ref starts his count 1……2……..3…..…4…….5… Jenny is about the recover and pull Nyako up and toss her back inside the ring. Jenny then climbs the turnbuckle nearest to her and waits. Nyako slowly stands up, and Jenny flies off with a cross-body! Jenny stays on top! 1…..2…..3NO! Nyako rolls the shoulder.}
Troy Franklin: Jenny almost had her! This is what happens when the pace quickens!
Duke King: Nyako is letting Jenny dictate the pace, and she's paying for it right now!
{Jenny gets up and pulls Nyako up as well. Jenny hooks Nyako in suplex position, she lifts, but Nyako blocks. Nyako twists out and knees Jenny in the gut. Nyako hooks Jenny into powerbomb position and tries to lift her, but Jenny blocks. Jenny then drives Nyako back-first into the corner. Nyako stumbles forward into a kick to the gut, and Jenny hooks her and takes her over with a snap suplex. Jenny floats into the cover 1……2…..Nyako kicks out.}
Troy Franklin: Another close call!
{Jenny slowly gets to her feet, and raises her fist in the air. The crowd look in anticipation of the Widowmaker 2.0. Nyako stands, and Jenny swings, but Nyako ducks! Jenny turns back around into a vicious head kick!}

Duke King: Jenny is out on her feet!
{Nyako then pulls a dazed Jenny into powerbomb position. She lifts Jenny up and over, and the drops her with the Tsunami Driver [Gory Neckbreaker] Nyako rolls Jenny over and makes the cover! 1…..2……3!}
Beth Harris Here is your winnner ..... Nyako!
Troy Franklin: And Nyako picks up the victory, and she advances in the tournament!
Duke King: One big strike changed this match Troy, Nyako has knockout power in her hands and feet.
{Nyako gets up and holds her arms in the air in victory. She nods and pumps her fist in celebration, also checking her mouth for blood before exiting through the ropes.}
Troy Franklin: Nyako advances, and that completes the first round Duke.
Duke King: Nyako joins 1, Gabrielle Salinas, & 3 in the Semi finals. We're going to have Nyako battling Evie Taylor and Gabrielle Salinas will take on Jennifer Drew!
Troy Franklin: Coming up next folks... it's an "I Quit" match between Crystal Hilton and Sidney Grey!
Troy Franklin: This is it Duke! Finally we settle things between Sidney Grey and Crystal Hilton…and we do it with an I Quit Match!!
Duke King: There is no better way to do it Troy. I know we heard a lot about Sidney being left out of the Queen of the Ring tournament, but this really is the best move for LAW. These two have been at each other’s throats since day one…and tonight someone quits.
Troy Franklin: Well…I would agree with you, but the deck appears to be heavily stacked against Sidney in this one with her former manager installed as the special guest referee. she was on social media guaranteeing that Sidney would not win this match. I don’t understand how Lucus Dupree can allow this match to go on under those circumstances…but that is just what is going to happen here!
Duke King: There are many angles here to consider Troy, but the match has been set and there is nothing left to be said…all the talking is going to be done in the ring when one of these ladies is forced to quit!
Troy Franklin: And with that final note…lets turn things over to Beth and get this underway!!
{Beth Harris walks around the ring as the fans stand and cheer.}
Beth Harris: Ladies and gentlemen, this next match is an I Quit match! There are no rules and the only way to win is to force your opponent to quit!
{The arena shakes as the fans stand and cheer. Flashing lights fill the entranceway as "Superstar" by Lupe fiasco fills the arena.}
Beth Harris: Introducing the special guest referee for this match! Hailing from Los Angeles, California…MALEEK RAHEEM!!!!
{The fans seem torn over their dislike of Raheem and his obvious support for Crystal as he walks out wearing an “A-Lister’s” t-shirt, playing to the thousands of screaming fans.}
Troy Franklin: Wow Duke! This is surreal! He is actually coming out to Crystal Hilton’s theme music and wearing her shirt! Is it possible that he could get anymore bias in this match?
Duke King: This is one of the strangest things I have ever seen. I mean, there is no love lost for Sidney Grey out here…but this is insane!
{Raheem walks down the aisle, giving out high fives and actually signing a few autographs right on the spot. He enters the ring and plays to the crowd a bit more before turning to Beth and taking the microphone out of her hands. He winks at her and holds the ropes as she ushers her out.}
Duke King: What is this? Why is he sending Beth out?
{Raheem takes the center of the ring as he addresses the crowd}
Maleek Raheem: Ladies and gentlemen, before we get this match started, I wanted to address the people who were affected by the earthquake early this morning in California. We all hope that you and your families are safe and we send you all of our blessings.}[/font]
Troy Franklin: Well…that was nice…
Maleek Raheem: Tonight…Crystal Hilton is dedicating the incredible ass kicking she is about to give to Sidney Grey, to all of you!!
Troy Franklin: I spoke too soon…
{The fans cheer all the same as "Superstar" by Lupe Fiasco starts playing again and the fans go crazy.}
Maleek Raheem: Introducing first…accompanied by Nicky Silver, the winner of this match and the sexist woman on the planet…standing 5’5” and weighing 115 pounds…hailing from the greatest city in the world, Los Angeles, California…“THE ROSE GODDESS” CRYSTAL HILTON!!
{Two lights are pointed at the entrance way as Crystal and Nicky both emerge, both wearing their own A-Lister t-shirts. Multiple pyros start shooting off one by one as the crowd roars loudly. The two begin walking down the aisle as Crystal cracks a grin and her photographers line up to take pictures of her. She finally makes it to the ring and places one foot on the apron and stretches the other one on the apron as well. She does a split to enter the ring and she finally makes it to her feet. She smiles bouncing around a bit as Raheem claps and cheers for her.}
Duke King: Apparently that leg that Sidney attempted to injure several weeks ago is doing well. She seems to be moving just fine.
Troy Franklin: That…or she hopes that Sidney will believe that she isn’t still injured. There is a bit of tape peaking through her pads. If I can see it…I know Sidney can, and she’ll try her best to capitalize.
{“Suffocate” by Cold begins to play as the lights dim all through the arena and the fans instantly begin to boo.}
Maleek Raheem: And her opponent…hailing from the Stone Age! Standing with one foot in the grave and weighing a whole hell of a lot than she admits…hailing from the mummies crypt…Sidney Grey…
Duke King: That was disrespectful!
{Fog rolls through the entranceway as a bright light shines from behind it. A shadowy figure is projected through the fog, but instead of grinding to the beat of the music. Sidney Grey emerges on a crutch as the crowd starts to boo her loudly.}
Troy Franklin: Look at this…is she serious?!
Duke King: She really might be injured Troy…lets not jump to conclusions here.
{She makes her way to the ring, using her crutch for support. She slowly makes her way into the ring as she flips off Nicky and Crystal.}
Troy Franklin: Look at Crystal; she has to be held back by Nicky, as Sidney gets into the ring!
{Sidney asks Raheem for the microphone, but he refuses, forcing her to be handed a microphone from outside the ring. She turns and addresses them.}
Sidney Grey: Look! I am really hurt here and it’s obvious that this match can’t happen…so…that’s it. Sorry to everyone here tonight…I’m really very sorry!
{Sidney starts to leave, but Raheem runs over and grabs her.}
Maleek Raheem: Not so fast! This is an I Quit Match…if you want out…you have to say the words.
{Sidney glares at Raheem, then turns her eyes on Crystal, her face twisted in a mask of hatred. She stares back at Raheem, then brings the microphone to her mouth.}
Sidney Grey: Okay…I Quit!
{The crowd is stunned as Sidney drops the microphone and again turns and starts to leave the ring.}
Troy Franklin: Is it over? I mean…she just quit, right?
Duke King: Let’s see what the referee says…
{Raheem grabs Sidney again, pulling her back into the ring.}
Maleek Raheem: I didn’t hear you…and besides…the match hasn’t started yet.
{Sidney glares at Raheem and has a few choice words for him, but she turns and spits in Crystal’s direction and the fans cheer as Crystal charges at Sidney. Sidney quickly ducks into the ropes, but Crystal grabs her by her hair, holding her as she unloads with a flurry of punches as the fans scream and cheer}
Troy Franklin: Maleek Raheem has signaled for the bell and this match is underway!
Duke King: Not the most conventional start to a match…but it’s underway I guess! Though, it seems like she could have ended it right there when she quit.
Troy Franklin: It seems like Raheem is looking to see Crystal punish Sidney!
{Sidney manages to jam her crutch into Crystal's midsection then draws back and smashes it right into the side of her previously injured knee, sending her to the canvas in a heap as she holds her leg in pain. Raheem attempts to stop Sidney.}
Duke King: What’s he doing? Anything goes here!
{Sidney swings the crutch at him and he quickly slides out of the ring. Sidney circles Crystal like a hungry lioness and swings the bent crutch again and connects with a shot right into the same place on her leg as she attacked before. The crutch disintegrates into tiny bits of twisted metal as Crystal screams in pain and goes down clutching her knee. Sidney hobbles around the ring, playing to the crowd as they boo her loudly, but she seems to relish that just as much.}
Troy Franklin: GOOD LORD! SIDNEY MAY HAVE JUST BROKEN CRYSTAL’S LEG!!
Duke King: Hey, broken or not, the playing field has just become a bit more level!!!
{Raheem slides back into the ring and heads over to check on Crystal.}
Duke King: Is she going to quit right here?
{Crystal shoves Raheem away and the fans cheer, seeing that she hasn’t quit. Nicky pounds the mat outside the ring to urge her friend on. Sidney pushes past Raheem and grabs a handful of Crystal’s long brown hair and pulls her up to her knees. Sidney rears back and punches her squarely in the jaw and she reels backwards. Sidney grabs her again, and again Crystal’s head snaps back as she punches her in the face. Sidney grabs her by her hair a third time and starts screaming at her as she rears back again. As she swings, Crystal gets up and arm blocks the punch, then stings her with one of her own as the fans roar and Crystal falls to one knee.}
Troy Franklin: CRYSTAL IS FIGHTING BACK!! SHE’S FIGHTING BACK!!!
{As Sidney reels from the unexpected shot, Crystal gamely makes it to her feet, hobbling a bit as she closes the gap and goes straight to work as she trades punches with Sidney, but she is giving it all back. They trade punches and now Crystal is getting the upper hand. Crystal forces Sidney into the ropes and then slingshots her to the other side of the ring.}
Duke King: She is still favoring that leg, even when she is running. DAMN! A kick right to Sidney's bad leg and Sidney flips and lands on her back. She's holding her leg in pain.
Troy Franklin: No rest given to Sidney as Crystal is now on her knees next to her pounding punch after punch in her face. Maleek Raheem is just watching with a huge smile on his face. Crystal back to her feet and grabs Sidney's bad leg.
Duke King: Elbow drop against the inside of the knee, and she's back up quickly, leg drop on to the leg. And again up to her feet…WITHERING ROSE!! SHE HAS HER FINISHER ON SIDNEY!!
{Sidney screams as Crystal’s elevated Boston Crab is locked in tightly.}
Troy Franklin: Her attacks are solely focused on the leg and the pain is apparent on Sidney's face! She might give up right here!!
{Sidney crawls towards the ropes as the fans stand and cheer, knowing that she will never make it to them. Tears stream down her face as the pain shoots through her body. Amazingly, Sid reaches for and grabs the ropes…but Raheem doesn’t signal for the hold to be broken.}
Troy Franklin: ANYTHING GOES HERE! THAT WON’T END THIS MATCH!!
{Raheem sticks the microphone in Sidney’s face and tells her to quit. Sidney screams as she pounds her hands on the mat, tapping out…but Raheem does not signal the end of the match.}
Duke King: She has to quit…she has to say the words!
{Sidney grabs the microphone in Raheem’s hands and screams, but he pulls the microphone away, even as everyone at ringside clearly hears her say that she quits. Crystal let’s go of the hold and raises her hand as Nicky jumps in the ring and they start to celebrate. Raheem waves it off and everyone is shocked.}
Duke King: What in the hell is going on here? Is he siding with Sid?
Troy Franklin: I don’t think so…he is telling Crystal to punish Sidney! He wants Crystal to take Sidney completely out!
{Crystal seems reluctant to do it at first, but the memory of everything that Sidney had put her through bubbles to the surface. Crystal looks down on Sidney, then gives her leg one more good stomp, as she nearly losses her balance due to the damage to her own leg. Crystal slides out of the ring and walks towards the announce table.}
Troy Franklin: The fans are behind Crystal tonight, you can hear them all chanting her name as, OH NO! She's grabbed a chair!
Duke King: THINGS ARE ABOUT TO GET HARDCORE!
Troy Franklin: Crystal slides back in and limps over to Sidney who is slowly trying to get up. Looks like Crystal is going to bring that chair down on Sidney!
Duke King: SIDNEY CAME FLYING UP WITH A KICK TO THE CHAIR ONTO CRYSTAL’S FACE! Crystal is down but so is Sidney!! She used that bad leg and she may be as hurt as Crystal is!!
Troy Franklin: She could have done more damage with that move if it wasn't for her leg. They are both down.
{Raheem seems beside himself as he paces the ring and Nicky screams for Crystal to get up. The two women slowly start to make it, but Crystal is a hair faster at recovering.}
Troy Franklin: Crystal goes back to Sidney and again they start trading blows. Sidney drops to her knees.
Duke King: LOW BLOW! Crystal falls to the mat holding her crotch as Sidney goes over and grabs the chair. Payback time!
{The fans boo as Sidney measures her opponent, looking to finish her off, once and for all. Sidney loads up to swing the chair and Raheem snatches it out of her hand.}
Troy Franklin: AGAIN?!!
Troy Franklin: Crystal grabs Sidney and whips her into the ropes and misses a clothesline, she rebounds and…
Duke King: MAFIA KICK! Crystal got smacked in the face. That came out of nowhere.
{Crystal lays on the mat dazed as she stares at the lights, Sidney lays on the mat a few feet away holding her leg as the fans stand on their feet. Slowly Sidney gets to her feet, but instead of going right after Crystal, she flips off Raheem and she starts to taunt the fans. The boos are thunderous, but she smiles as she makes her way back to her opponent.}
Troy Franklin: She is now hovering over Crystal by her legs. She grabs both of her legs and holds them open!! SHE’S GOING TO STOMP HER WHERE IT HURTS!!! SIDNEY SUDDENLY TURNS ON RAHEEM AS SHE LETS CRYSTAL GO!! FACE BUSTER ON MALEEK RAHEEM RIGHT INTO THAT STEEL CHAIR!
Duke King: OH SNAP!!! I THINK SIDNEY JUST BUSTED RAHEEM'S GRILL WITH THAT MOVE!!! MAN!! HE’S OUT FOR THE COUNT!!!
{Sidney looks down at Raheem with a sadistic grin as she slowly makes it to her feet, but just as she turns her attention back to Crystal, she is quickly floored.}
Duke King: Sidney is back up and walks straight into a clothesline from Crystal!!
{Crystal pulls up Sidney by the hair and tosses her over the top rope. As Sidney hits the floor in a heap, Crystal kneels beside Raheem to help him, but he is completely unconscious. Nicky gets into the ring, yelling at Crystal to go after Sidney. Crystal pauses for a moment, but after she sees EMTs rushing to the ring, she relents.}
Troy Franklin: I’m not sure what happens right now…since we are without a referee…but this match appears to be continuing!
{Crystal slides out of the ring as she looks to continue the match. She goes under the ring and pulls out a ladder. She slides it into the ring and throws in a chair as well. She pauses for a moment to watch as Raheem is taken out, then she turns her attention back to Sidney as Nicky yells at her again. Crystal picks Sidney back up.}
Duke King: She is moving her over to the steel stairs. Twisting Suplex!!
{Crystal lifts Sidney up and twisted the movement of a suplex resulting in Sidney's leg smashing down on the steel stairs.}
Troy Franklin: Sidney is down again!!! MAN!! THAT WAS BRUTAL!!!
{Crystal rolls into the ring and grabs the ladder as she takes it and jams it into the corner. Sshe wastes no time as she rolls back out and goes after Sidney again.}
Duke King: Still Crystal doesn’t take a break and throws Sidney into the ring and follows in. Holding Sidney on her feet, she's pointing at the ladder!
{Crystal screams as she sends Sidney into the ladder with every ounce of strength that she has. The crowd roars as Sid hits it with tremendous force and crumbles to the mat.}
Duke King: BRUTAL! JUST BRUTAL!!
Troy Franklin: Crystal is holding the ladder now. SHE JUST SLAMMED THE LADDER DOWN ON SIDNEY’S INJURED LEG. IT MIGHT NOT BE ABLE TO TAKE ANY MORE PUNISHMENT.
{Sidney screams that she quits, but without a referee there, the match continues.}
Duke King: That is three times that this match should have ended! What is going on here?!!
Troy Franklin: Someone will have to sort this out!!
{Crystal tosses away the ladder and looks around the ring, then throws up her hands as she resumes the assault on Sidney. She pulls her to her feet and sends her into the rope. She rebounds off the ropes as she zeroes in on her with a flying clothesline that sends Sidney toppling over the top rope and down to the floor below as the fans go wild.}
Duke King: DAMN!!
{Crystal slips out of the ring and goes after Sidney. As Sidney rolls around on the floor holding her back, Crystal stomps her repeatedly. The fans roar, cheering in unison “KICK HER ASS! KICK HER ASS!” Crystal kneels down over Sidney and starts drilling her in the forehead with vicious elbow shots. Suddenly Crystal stops as all the color seems to drain from her face and falls over holding her crotch as Sidney manages to get her knee up in desperation.}
Duke King: OH MAN!!! Crystal is going to be singing a few octaves higher now on her next album!!
{Sidney sits up as she looks over with a dazed look in her eyes and sees Crystal still holding her crotch in pain. She quickly gains the advantage and slams the back of Crystal's head into the exposed concrete over and over again.}
Troy Franklin: She isn't just trying to win the match, she's trying to destroy Crystal!!
{Crystal manages to shove her away, then she gets her foot up and kicks her backwards with tremendous force.}
Troy Franklin: OH MY!! Crystal just launched her into the steel barricade!!!
{Crystal struggles to get to her feet as Sidney does the same, while using the barricade for balance.}
Troy Franklin: UHHH!! FLASHING LIGHTS KICK BY CRYSTAL SENDS SIDNEY FLYING OVER THE BARRICADE AND INTO THE FANS!!!
{The crowd roars as Crystal follows her over, locks in a headlock and plants her with a snap suplex onto the pavement.}
Troy Franklin: OH MAN!!! BRUTAL!!!
{Crystal clears out the fans as she looks down at Sidney, then shakes her head as she sees the woman struggling to get up. Crystal waives for one of the fans to move, then takes his seat. Crystal raises the chair and swings it down with all her might. The sound of metal on concrete echoes through the building as Sidney rolls away at the last moment. Crystal recovers quickly and swings again.}
Duke King: HOLY CRAP!!!
{This time, the sound of metal on concrete is replaced by metal on flesh as the chair shot connects solidly…with a fan that Sidney manages to pull in front of her at the last moment. Crystal watches as Nicky rushes to the man's side as Security rushes in to clear the area of spectators. Crystal is only distracted for a moment, but that is all that Sidney needs as she rips the chair from her hands and nails Crystal square in the forehead. Crystal stumbles around dazed from the hit, but as she comes back around Sidney levels her with a second chairshot that echoes through the arena.}
Duke King: OH MY GOD!!! THIS NEEDS TO BE CALLED OFF!! IT HAS TO BE STOPPED!!
{As Crystal falls to the floor, Sidney drops the chair and stands over her, screaming for her to quit, but there is no one there to hear it…nor does Crystal make a move to quit the match. The arena is in an uproar as nearly everyone is distracted by the injured fan and his hysterical friends. Sidney drops down and covers Crystal, as she pounds the floor with her own hand, but still no one pays her attention…especially since a pinfall would not end the match.}
Troy Franklin: Come on! How can she expect this match to go on with a injured fan a ringside? ONE THAT SHE CAUSED TO BE INJURED!!
{Sidney staggers to her feet as she grabs Nicky from behind and spins her around, but Sidney is surprised as Nicky smacks her so hard that she nearly falls over.}
Duke King: OH MAN!! SHE IS PISSED!!!
Troy Franklin: WELL SHE ISN'T THE ONLY ONE!!
{Crystal staggers to her feet as she grabs Sidney by her hair from behind and the fans cheer. Crystal starts to drag her through the crowd!!}
Duke King: Ohhh!!! Ahhhh!! OUCH!!! Crystal keeps bouncing her head off the empty chairs as fans clear the way for them!! They are heading out to the main lobby of the building!!!
{There is a loud crash as Crystal sends Sidney into the side of a nearby popcorn machine and the entire thing topples over, sending fans and vendors running for cover. Crystal stands over Sidney as she looks around at the carnage she has caused, as she reaches down to grab her, her face is suddenly enveloped in a yellow splash of hot butter as Sidney tosses the container up at her. Crystal screams as she staggers back holding her eyes and face in pain.}
Duke King: HOLY CRAP TROY!!! HOW DO YOU LIKE YOUR ROSE GODDESS?? BUTTERED OR PLAIN?!!!
{Sidney slowly makes it to her feet as she staggers over to the wall and grabs a broom from beside a janitors closet.}
Troy Franklin: HERE COMES SIDNEY BACK INTO THE FIGHT!!! OOOOOhhhhh!!!
{Sidney runs at Crystal from behind and takes out her leg with a well placed shot to the side of the knee!! Sidney stares at Crystal, as she holds her knee in pain and looks around. She finally sees what she is looking for and she grabs Crystal, dragging her to the near by stair railing. She pulls Crystal’s legs out on either side, as she moves outside and wraps Crystal’s legs around the support and latches on to her leg, applying a figure four leg lock as she hangs from the edge of the stairs.}
Duke King: SID-KNEE LOCK!! SHE HAS IT LOCKED ON TIGHT!!! THIS IS THE MOVE SHE PUT CYNTHIA OUT WITH!!
{Crystal screams as she fights the hold, but there is no way to escape the otherwise highly illegal move. Sidney screams at Crystal, telling her to quit, but Crystal shakes her head furiously, refusing. Nicky rushes over, her hands on her head as she doesn’t know what to do. Sidney keeps on the pressure, putting everything she has into the hold as she screams as well.}
Troy Franklin: CRYSTAL, JUST QUIT!! SAY THE WORDS!!!
Duke King: She won’t do it Troy!! She won’t quit!!
{The fans watch on the big screen as others flood the concession area to see for themselves, all cheering for Crystal. Crystal muscles herself up grabbing at Sidney’s legs, pulling at them to break the hold.}
Troy Franklin: SHE’S FIGHTING OUT OF IT!! SHE’S FIGHTING IT!!
{The fans cheer, even as a new official finally runs out. Crystal is on the verge of escape, when Sid begins to bounce, further tightening the hold. Crystal falls back in pain as she covers her face, still refusing to quit. The referee drops down to ask her, but she refuses still.}
Duke King: She’s not going to do it…she is not going to quit!
{Crystal goes motionless as the referee stands there unsure of what to do. Nicky rushes over, kneeling over Crystal and holding her, she turns to the referee and yells that Crystal has quit. The referee signals that the match is over, but Sid does not release the hold.}
Troy Franklin: COME ON!! STOP THIS!!
{Sidney seems intent on breaking Crystal’s leg, but the head of Security and a host of others physically pull Sidney off as the fans boo their displeasure at the finish of this match. Nicky continues to hold her friend as help rushes over to check on her.}
Troy Franklin: I’m speechless…unbelievable match…but I don’t know that Crystal actually quit…I mean, we never heard her say it. Sid quit multiple times and…I…I just don’t know what to say here.
Duke King: I agree with you…we didn’t hear it…but Crystal’s friend says that she quit and the referee accepted it.
{As Sidney is forcibly removed from the area, Kate Harris announces her as the winner, while the fans boo loudly knowing that Sidney stole the match.}
Beth Harris: The winner of the match…SIDNEY GREY!!
Troy Franklin: Management needs to take a good hard look at this one…Crystal was robbed and Sidney is walking around here like she really earned the win! This is sickening!
Troy Franklin: We just hope that Crystal is okay after that brutal match. If she can…I am sure she will step through the ropes and do that one more time! So after all that, we have to continue with the Queen of the Ring tournament!
Beth Harris: This contest is the first semi finals match of the Queen of the Ring tournament!
{The arena speakers play 'Vanity' and the crowd starts booing when Gabriella Salinas appears on the stage. She mockingly blows a kiss to the crowd, just to draw some more heat out of them. She confidently walks to the ring, having no reason to interact with the crowd. She enters the ring and leans against the corner, giving the fans a "hand to the face" signal while she waits for the match to start.}
Troy Franklin: Gabrielle was successful earlier tonight against Keira Fisher, but she didn't have an easy time.
Duke King:But of the four women left, she has to be in the freshest. If you want to call that fresh.
{“The Takedown” begins to play as Jenn walks out to the top of the ramp with her hands raised up in the air with devil horns. She’s head banging as she makes her way down the ramp and to the ring. She slides into ring and flashes the devil horns once more one the turnbuckles and hops down waiting for the match to begin.}
Troy Franklin:Jennifer was able to get by Miyoko in the first round, but that was a heck of a fight too.
Duke King: This is now where you see who really has the stamina and cardio right here. And heart. Because if you win this match, you have to go out AGAIN to win the whole thing.
{Jenn and Gabrielle have their eyes locked on each other as they circle. They lock up, and Gabrielle hits cheap knee to the ribs, then a solid right hand then sends Jenn reeling into the corner. Gabrielle moves in with a kick, and Jenn staggers out of the corner trying to create distance, but Gabrielle stays on top with a hard forearm, which drops Jenn to a knee. Gabrielle pulls her up and scoops her onto her shoulders and hits a nice powerslam. Gabrielle covers. 1…….2…. Jenn kicks out.}
Troy Franklin: And much like earlier, Gabrielle starting fast. Looking to overwhelm Jennifer in the early going.
{Gabrielle complains about the count before going back to Jenn, who hops up and snaps off a hurricanrana out of nowhere! Jenn stays on top and begins hitting some hard right hands, before getting up and yelling for Gabrielle to get up. She does so and Jenn whips her into a corner. Jenn comes charging up, but Gabrielle meets her with a back elbow. Jenn uses the ropes to try and get up, but Gabrielle is right there to choke her against them. Breaking on four, Gabrielle again gives the referee static about her breaking the rules. Gabrielle then stomps Jenn and pulls her to her feet and hits another clubbing forearm. She leans Jenn against the ropes and whips her in, ducking for a backdrop, but Jenn kicks her in the chest to counter. Jenn throws another kick which is caught. Jenn then leaps for the Enziguri, but Gabrielle ducks! Jenn lands hard on her stomach, and Gabrielle instantly locks in the STF!}
Troy Franklin: Nice counter by Gabrielle into the STF.
Duke King: And as advertised, Gabrielle is a master of submission wrestling.
{Jenn fights and claws trying to reach the ropes, but cannot. She shakes her head “No” each time the referee asks her. She begins trying to make a move towards the ropes, reaching out, but is still pretty close to being in the center of the ring. She starts pulling towards the ropes she can see, gaining a little ground. She flattens her palms and does it one more time, gaining a little more ground. But in the meantime, Gabrielle continues to wrench and pull on the head and neck of Jenn. Jenn tries to scoot a little more, but very progress is minimal. She reaches out for the ropes, but is still a little ways away. Suddenly, Jenn’s hand reaching for the ropes slowly begins to drop, as her struggle starts to slow.}
Troy Franklin: Jenn may be going out here.
Duke King: She's been in that hold for a long, long time!
{Jenn’s eyes are glassy, and she looks to be losing consciousness. The Ref asks Jenn if she wants to quit, but Jenn still refuses. Her arm drops to the canvas and the ref again asks, but gets no response. He goes and lifts Jenn’s arm, and Jenn springs to life with a rush of adrenaline, and crawls, and finally is able to reach the ropes! The referee forces a break.}
Troy Franklin: And Jenn JUST makes it to the ropes.
Duke King: But that had to take a lot out of Jennifer right there. Gabrielle keeps that pressure on she may be walking into the finals.
{Gabrielle gets up, annoyed that Jenn is still fighting. She stomps her a few times, and them slams her face into the canvas, before taunting the crowd, who boo her in response. Gabrielle turns back to Jenn who kicks her in the gut from a seated position, but Gabrielle recovering quickly, and boots Jenn in the head! Gabrielle looks angry as she hits the ropes and tries for a leg drop, but Jenn rolls out of the way! Gabrielle gets up stunned, and Jenn rolls her up! 1……2….Gabrielle kicks out!}
Troy Franklin: Jennifer almost stole one there!
{Gabrielle is irate as she stands, swinging wildly for a clothesline, but Jenn ducks, and starts firing off right hands that stun Gabrielle. Jenn tries for a whip, but Gabrielle reverses. On the rebound, Jenn is able to pull off a tilt-a-whirl headscissors! Gabrielle gets up stunned and Jenn hits a dropkick then sends her back down. Jenn gets to her feet and Gabrielle staggers up. Jenn tries for another whip to the corner, but Gabrielle reverses. Gabrielle charges, but eats two boots to the face for her troubles. Jenn then boosts herself on the second rope and hooks Gabrielle’s head, and connects with a tornado DDT! Jenn makes the cover hooking the leg! 1……2….. Gabrielle rolls the shoulder!}
Troy Franklin: Jennifer is still fighting! She's not going away.
Duke King: I don't think Gabrielle expected this much fight!
{Jenn is now frustrated as she stands. Gabrielle crawls to the corner, and gets up, only to meet a clothesline in the corner from Jenn. Jenn then climbs the ropes in front of Gabrielle, and begins the ten punches!}
Crowd: 1…..2……3……4
{Gabrielle however is able to counter and takes Jenn down with a powerbomb from the corner! Gabrielle then stacks up Jenn for the pin, kicking her feet out and hooking them on the ropes for leverage! 1…….2…….3NO! Jenn is able to kick out!}
Troy Franklin: And Jenn still kicks out! She's got to be running on fumes at this point!
Duke King: Gabrielle is throwing everything at her! Jenn's got to have a breaking point though.
{Gabrielle uses the lopes to gets to her feet. She signals that she’s going to end the match and pulls a stunned Jenn to her feet. She hooks Jenn’s arms and spins, looking for the Vanity breaker, but Jenn spins out and counters into a swinging neckbreaker of her own! Jenn looks down at Gabrielle and begins heading to the top.}
Troy Franklin: Jennifer is looking to finish this match off!
{Jenn gets to the top rope and balances, but Gabrielle is getting back up. Jenn waits, and jumps off, but Gabrielle catches her in mid-air with a double knee facebuster! Jenn goes down in a heap as Gabrielle crawls into the cover! 1……2……3NO! Jenn barely rolls the shoulder.}
Troy Franklin: WHAT A COUNTER! and Jennifer STILL kicks out!
Duke King: But look at the look on Gabrielle's face, she's pissed!
{Gabrielle stands up infuriated. She gets on top Jenn and begins punching her repeatedly, forcing Jenn to get her arms up to block. Jenn is able to reach out and grabs the ropes, but Gabrielle won’t stop, and refuses to listen. She does get off, but pulls Jenn to the center of the ring, and re-applies, the STF! Jenn tries to fight, and tries to fight, but in the end, the pain is too much and Jenn has to tap out!}
Beth Harris: Here is your winner .... Gabrielle Salinas!
Troy Franklin: And Gabrielle has advanced.
Duke King: Jennifer just could not withstand that STF any longer. That first one almost put her out, she couldn't handle a second one.
Troy Franklin: Wait, she won't let go of the hold!
{The referee continues to try to tell Gabrielle to let go, but she refuses to do so. Jenn screams in pain as Gabrielle won’t let go. The bell keeps ringing, but Gabrielle don’t bother listening. She keeps the hold cranked on, as Jenn taps out again. Eventually, Jenn stops tapping, and stops moving altogether. Gabrielle still won’t break the hold!}
Troy Franklin: What the hell?! Break the damn hold! She already won the match!
Duke King: I told you, that look in her eyes, she's snapped!
{Gabrielle is raging as the referee’s pour from the back and try to get her off Jenn, Jenn is passed out in the hold, as the original ref throws up his hands, and signals for the bell. He goes outside to talk to Beth as the refs are finally able to get her off with physical force.}
Troy Franklin: And finally, the hold is broken.
Beth Harris: Ladies and Gentlemen, may I have your attention please... Due to Gabrielle Salinas' refusal to obey the officials instructions, he has REVERSED his official decision! Therefore, your winner .... Jennifer Drew!
Troy Franklin: And Gabrielle just cost herself the finals!
{Gabrielle is still enraged as Roxi Johnson is forced to make an appearance to maintain order. She has to physically remove Gabrielle from the ring, as more referees, and additional security hit the ring and prevent Gabrielle from doing any more damage. Roxi gets in the ring and checks on Jenn along with medical staff.}
Troy Franklin: Jennifer Drew is the winner, but... You have to wonder if she'll even be able to compete at this point...
Duke King: Gabrielle had that submission locked in, turning the hip of Jennifer, wrenching her neck and head... Gabrielle may have eliminated Jennifer one way or another now.
Troy Franklin: She'd already won the match Duke, there was no call for Gabrielle to do what she did. Thank goodness Roxi and the officials got out here before too much more damage was done.
{Jennifer starts coming back around as Roxi and the Medical staff check her out. Jennifer is helped outside the ring and Roxi assists her to the back as the fans cheer.}
Troy Franklin: Folks, we've got one more semi-finals match coming up, and that's Nyako and Evelyn Taylor.
Duke King: And at this point, it may be the match to crown the Queen of the Ring. If Jennifer Drew cannot continue, then the winner of this match would automatically win the tournament...
Troy Franklin: We'll have to see what happens... Here we go.
Beth Harris: This contest, is the second semi finals match in the Queen of the Ring tournament!
{“You’re Going Down” starts playing and Nyako emerges from the back to a mixture of boos and cheers. She starts down the ramp way scanning the crowd before turning her attention the the empty ring or her opponent inside and walks slowly down to the end on the ramp.
At the end of the ramp she gets a running start and hops up on the apron before climbing through the middle ropes quickly to the inside of the ring. After entering the ring she walks over to a corner and raises her arms in the air with her index fingers pointed at the sky as a few pyrotechnics explode In the ring behind her and the crowd reacts.
She hops down from corner and turns her full attention up the ramp to wait for her opponent to come down.}
Troy Franklin: Nyako was impressive against Jenny Williams, defeating her in a tough match, so is she now the favorite to win the whole thing?
Duke King: In my eyes, yes. I told you I had her picked the whole time. And it may get even easier if Nyako wins this match, because of the situation with Jennifer Drew.
{Evie appears at the top of the ramp, waves to the fans before strutting in time to the music to the ring where she straddles the second rope, blowing a kiss to the fans before getting in, cracking her knuckles and waiting}
Troy Franklin: Evelyn Taylor knocked off Mackenzie Roberts, surprising Mackenzie earlier, so she might have a little luck on her side tonight.
Duke King: Luck is a funny thing her in Vegas, but Evie has a huge mountain to climb.
{The bell sounds as Evie starts jumping up and down, stretching herself out. She circles Nyako, who just stares at her. Evie comes face to face with Nyako, and Nyako pie faces her back. Evie tries to get back in Nyako’s face, but Nyako slaps her HARD across the face, stunning Evie. Nyako grabs Evie by the hair, and simply tosses her across the ring! Nyako flashes a small smile as Evie struggles to get up. Evie does get a blow the gut in, but Nyako shakes it off and again grabs two handfuls of hair and tosses Evie across the ring! Evie clutches her head as Nyako starts stomping her head. Evie covers up, and Nyako begins driving knees into the ribs and side of Evie, as Evie grabs the ropes and forces the ref to come in and separate them.}
Troy Franklin: And Nyako is all over Evie right now.
{Nyako moves back in and lifts Evie to her feet, and hooks her and takes her over with a snap suplex. Nyako stands up and steps on the neck of Evie, choking her with her boot. The ref counts and Nyako steps off at 3. Nyako then mounts Evie and begins raining down punches on Evie, before the ref makes her stop, warning her about closed fists. Evie rolls to the ropes and tries to get up, but Nyako puts her head between the top and middle rope, and grabs another handful of Evie’s hair and pulls back on the rope! The ref counts, and Nyako breaks at 4. Nyako goes right back to Evie’s hair, and again breaks at 4 of the ref’s count. Nyako pulls Evie back to the center of the ring, and hits a nice Northern lights suplex! 1……2…..Evie kicks out.}
Duke King: Nyako is flat out dominating this match right now.
Troy Franklin: Nyako is simply too strong for Evie at this point. Evie has yet to get out of the blocks.
Duke King: And if this continues like this, Nyako will have easy pickings in the finals, If the finals even happen.
{Evie again rolls to the ropes to try and get up, with Nyako seemingly enjoying beating her up. Nyako grabs another handful of hair and pulls Evie to her feet, and then whips her into the ropes, on the rebound, Nyako goes for a clothesline that Evie ducks, Evie then comes back with a hair-pull mat slam! Nayko scrambles up, and Evie takes her down with the hair-pull mat slam again! Evie then boosts herself up on the middle rope behind her, and as Nyako gets up, Evie take her down with a missile dropkick! Evie gets up and boosts herself on the second rope again, and again takes Nyako down with a missile dropkick! Evie scrambles into the cover! 1…….2…. Nyako gets a foot on the rope!}
Troy Franklin: Now Evelyn is getting into this match!
Duke King: She needs to keep this up, Nyako has been putting a beating on her up until this point.
{Nyako slowly gets up still stunned, and Evie is there to meet her with a right hand. Evie connects with another, then backs Nyako into the corner, and unleashes a series of forearms, rocking Nyako with each one. When she’s finished, Nyako staggers out of the corner, and Evie snap mares her over and delivers a beautiful rolling neck snap! Evie makes the cover! 1……2….. Nyako kicks out.}
Troy Franklin: Near fall from Evie.
{Evie reaches over to grab Nyako, but Nyako strikes with a throat thrust that catches Evie flush. Evie gets up and stumbles into the corner gasping for air. Nyako gets up and runs a knee into Evie’s ribs, before putting her boot up, and choking the life out of Evie with it in the corner. The ref counts and Nyako breaks on 4. Nyako then hits an elbow to the back of the neck of Evie, and then hooks her and delivers a nice snap suplex. Rolling to her feet, and keeping the suplex hooked, Nyako tries for a second one, but Evie blocks. Nyako quickly let’s go, and hits another hard shot to the back of Evie’s neck. Nyako then whips Evie in to the ropes, and goes for a clothesline on the rebound, but Evie ducks, and when Nyako turns around, she is NAILED by a superkick! Nyako goes down in a heap and Evie makes the cover! 1…….2…..Nyako rolls the shoulder!}
Troy Franklin: Superkick out of nowhere! and Evie is still in this thing!
Duke King: She's a gamer, I'll give her that.
{Evie slowly gets up and pulls Nyako up, and tries to lift Nyako onto her shoulders! Nyako however, slips off the back, and hooks Evie from behind in a full nelson and tosses her with a Dragon Suplex! Nyako keeps the bridge! 1……2……3NO! Evie rolls out!}
Troy Franklin: And somehow, Evie Taylor kicks out!
Duke King: I don't know how! Nyako dropped her right on her head!
{Nyako slowly gets up, annoyed at Evie. Nayko begins taunting her to get up, slapping Evie in the back of the head. She motions for Evie to get up, and Evie slowly does so. Nyako rears back for a head kick, but Evie ducks! Nyako spins around, and Evie pushes her towards the ropes, and on the rebound, catches her with a spinning heel kick, that takes Nyako through the ropes to the floor!}
Troy Franklin: Evie just won't quit! She's going for everything here!
{Evie stays on the mat, worn out from the match. Nyako slowly gets up on the outside, stunned as she rolls back into the ring. Evie gets back to her feet and She unloads on Nyako with a right hand. Then another, then another. Backing Nyako into the ropes, Evie goes a whip, but Nyako reverses, Evie however twists out of that, and pulls Nyako in for a Samoan Drop! Evie gets up as Nyako stumbles up, and Evie hooks her head, and drives it into her knee, with the Coup de Grâce! Evie makes the cover! 1……2…….3!}
Troy Franklin: Evie Taylor did it! She beat Nyako!
Duke King: I can't believe this! Nyako dominated this match, but that Evie Taylor snuck in and somehow was able to pull this off
{Evie slumps off of Nyako, exhausted. Her music plays as she rolls onto her back still worn out, and hurting. She rolls out of the ring clutching the back of her head as she walks back up the ramp in victory.}
Troy Franklin: Evie Taylor is now in the finals against Jennifer Drew! Two debuting wrestlers here, have earned their way to the finals!
Duke King: Well, there's still a question as to whether or not the finals will even happen Troy. Remember, Jennifer Drew is injured!
Troy Franklin: That is true... Coming up next folks... the Marquee championship is on the line!
Beth Harris: The following contest, set for one fall, is for the LAW Marquee Championship!
{A light show begins near the entrance curtain, with yellow, blue, red and orange spotlights swirling around in a dizzying pattern. As the initial reverb-heavy vocals of 'Blow' begin, the focus spotlight stops dead in the centre, in time for Summer St. Clair to step into it as the electronic beat begins. Followed closely by publicist and associate Bambi Huntington, the blonde then swaggers down the ramp, royally ignoring the lovestruck fanboys on either side of her. She motions for the cameraman to keep the focus on her as she poses against the ring ropes, then on top of the ring ropes, then midway into the ring...you get the idea. When she finally steps onto the canvas, she spends the precious seconds before the bell not limbering up, but rather yelling at Bambi, for offences real or imagined.}
Troy Franklin: The champion will face a true test tonight Duke.
Duke King: That she does, but don't sell her short, she's got a lot of skill, and even a little luck on her side.
{"Frontline" By Pillar begins over the loud speakers. and Gabby emerges from the backstage. She smiles at the crowd, and holds her arms up. She begins a light job down the aisle slapping fans five along the way. She climbs up the steps and poses for a moment before entering through the ropes. She removes her POW/MIA shirt and begins lightly stretching.}
Troy Franklin: Gabby Camacho has been nothing short of impressive lately, have great battles with all her opponents. She earned this match.
Duke King: But now she's in a big match situation, this is a championship match, and she needs to step it up one level higher.
{The bell rings as Gabby begins advancing towards Summer, but Summer starts running around the ring, with Gabby half-heartedly giving chase. Summer slows down, and then the two lock up. Gabby instantly drops down in a fireman’s carry, and slaps on an arm bar. Summer kicks her legs up into the air, and brings Gabby down into a headscissors. Gabby kips up to escape. Gabby turns to meet Summer, but Summer shoots a shot straight to the gut of Gabby to stop her. Summer gets up and wrings the arm of Gabby, but Gabby cartwheels and reverses, and pulls Summer in and hooks her, and lifts her and takes her over with a nice vertical suplex. Gabby goes for the cover 1…..2…Summer kicks out.}
Troy Franklin: Early cover by the challenger, and the champion had better be aware of that kind of thing.
Duke King: It's early, Troy. And Summer is not going to be beaten that quickly!
{Gabby gets up and grabs Summer in a waistlock, and Summer screams at the top of her lungs, lunging for the ropes. She makes it, and the ref has to step in and force the break. Gabby manages to use her strength and pull Summer off the rope, and then turn away from the ropes, but Summer throws a desperation elbow that catches Gabby in the face. Summer turns and hits a dropkick that sends Gabby through the ropes backwards, where she falls out of the ring, backflipping onto her stomach.}
Troy Franklin: Ouch! Nasty spill there taken by Gabby!
{Summer gets up and screams at the referee to count Gabby out. He begins the count 1……2……..3……..4….. Gabby is back up, and Summer reaches through the ropes to get her, Gabby overpowers her again and pulls her onto the floor by her hair!}
Troy Franklin: And the challenger is undaunted!
Duke King: Gabby is a fighter, no question about it!
{Gabby picks up Summer and tosses her back into the ring. Gabby goes to follow her, but Bambi runs in and tries to attack her, Gabby sees it out of the corner of her eye and meets a charging Bambi with a clothesline! Gabby turns back to get into the ring, but Summer is there with a handful of hair. The ref makes her break, but this allows Bambi the chance to get back up, as Gabby stands on the apron, Bambi yanks the leg of Gabby, dropping her off and smashing Gabby’s face against the apron. Gabby goes down in a heap.}
Troy Franklin: C'mon now! Bambi with blatant outside interference!
Duke King: The referee is being distracted. Brilliant on the part of Summer right there!
{Summer exits the ring as Bambi races to a different side of the ring. Summer picks up Gabby and tosses her back into the ring, Gabby stumbles up, and Summer hits a nice clothesline before going for the cover. 1…..2…..Gabby rolls the shoulder. Gabby sits up holding her face, and Summer is quick to capitalize, locking in a body scissors and also a reverse chin lock, pulling back for all she’s worth.}
Troy Franklin: Summer locking in that submission now.
Duke King: Summer is now going to start sapping that strength right out of Gabby. She needs to because Gabby is obviously stronger.
{Gabby refuses to submit, and tries to pull herself towards the rope, but Summer continually cranks back on Gabby’s neck and chin, stopping her progress. Gabby tries rolling, but Summer still stops her from countering. The ref again asks if Gabby quits, and Gabby wags her finger “no” as she tries to find a way out of the move.}
Troy Franklin: Gabby refuses to give up!
{The fans begin stomping and clapping as Gabby tries to escape. She again inches towards the ropes, but Summer cranks back. Finally, in an amazing show of strength, Gabby does a reverse pushup lifting both her and Summer off the ground! Gabby plants her feet on the mat and begins walking still with Summer in the air, and stops when she reaches the rope.The ref forces the break.}
Troy Franklin: And Gabby makes it to the ropes, but what strength she has!
Duke King: That was an amazing feat of strength, but how much did it take out of Gabby?
{Summer gets up stunned and grabs Gabby by the hair. Gabby however breaks out, and punches Summer right in the mouth! Summer stumbles back, and Gabby charges and hits her with a clothesline. Summer gets up, and get one more. Summer stumbles up again, and walks into a discus clothesline this time! Summer goes down and Gabby covers hooking the leg! 1…..2…..Summer rolls her shoulder. Gabby questions the count, and this allows Summer the time she needs to recover. When Gabby turns back, Summer escapes the ring under the bottom rope. Summer hurriedly grabs the Marquee title and motions to Bambi that they are leaving!}
Troy Franklin: What's this about? Is the champion leaving?!
Duke King: Hey, live to fight another day Troy!
{Gabby exits the ring chases down Bambi and Summer, knocking Bambi down and nailing Summer with a forearm. Gabby then leads Summer back to the ring, and Summer still has the Marquee title in her hand. Gabby prepares to throw her back into the ring, but Bambi races up and snatches the Marquee title from Summer, distracting Gabby for a few seconds. Gabby turns around and is again nailed by a clothesline.}
Troy Franklin: AGAIN Bambi interferes in this match!
Duke King: Bambi was taking the Marquee title, she saved Gabby from possibly having it used on her, or vise-versa with Summer!
{Summer rolls into the ring to collect herself. Gabby slowly gets up and rolls into the ring, but Summer is right there, driving hard knees to Gabby’s back. Gabby gets to her knees, and Summer stomps her hard on the back, putting her right back down. Summer then insults Gabby by walking over her, taking a moment to pose while standing on Gabby’s back. The crowd boos and Gabby gets back up, but Summer nails her with a stiff European uppercut, followed quickly by another. Summer leans Gabby against the ropes, and smirks as she whips Gabby into the ropes. Summer ducks her head for a backdrop, but Gabby kicks her to straighten her up. Gabby charges, and when Summer sticks her arm out for a clothesline attempt, Gabby ducks behind Summer and grabs her shoulders, falling back into a backstabber! Gabby makes the cover, but Bambi jumps on the apron again! The ref yells at her to get off, but Gabby has had enough and grabs Bambi by the hair!

The ref finally turns around and counts! 1……2…….3NO! Summer manages to roll a shoulder.}
Troy Franklin: Gabby had this match won! Bambi saved her, although inadvertently!
Duke King: Gabby attacked Bambi!
{Gabby slaps the mat in frustration, and curses under her breath. She picks up a reeling Summer and goes for a whip, but Summer twists around and rakes Gabby’s eyes. Gabby stumbles around blindly as she turns back to Summer who hits a knee to the gut, then another. Gabby drops to her knees after the third one and Summer backs up against the ropes. Summer measures Gabby for the Heatstroke [Axe Kick] and goes fir hit, but Gabby moves out of the way! Summer turns and is lifted onto the shoulders of Gabby!}
Troy Franklin: Killzone coming up!
{Gabby prepares for the Killzone [TKO] but Bambi AGAIN jumps onto the apron. She jumps off as Gabby approaches, but Gabby reaches through the ropes to get at her. Bambi tries to turn and run, but Gabby grabs her by the hair. Summer comes in and nails Gabby, dropping her to her knees, laying against the middle rope. Summer hits the ropes and goes to attack Gabby, but Gabby moves and Summer's foot hits Bambi! Summer turns and is lifted on to Gabby's shoulder's again! Gabby then connects with the Killzone! Gabby makes the cover! 1......2......3!}
Beth Harris Here is your winner .... And NEW LAW Marquee Champion .... Gabriella Camacho!
Troy Franklin: We've got a new champion!
Duke King: Some how! Some way! Gabby Camacho earns the Marquee Championship!
{Gabby rolls off of Summer and sits on her knees She is handed the Marquee Championship and clutches it to her chest, proud of this moment. Gabby stands up and hold the title up to massive cheers.}
Troy Franklin: That right there, is a proud champion.
Duke King: Gabby overcame everything Summer and Bambi
{Gabby parades around the ring with the championship, and then exits the ring, carrying the title to the back.}
Troy Franklin: It's a great night for Gabby Camacho!
Troy Franklin: Well fans, we have a special treat for you coming up. We have an unannounced match that will feature the LAW in-ring debut of a controversial megastar… Kelly Fox.
Duke King: We were told that Kelly insisted on having a match here tonight and it appears that Lucas Dupree has obliged her request. Me personally… I think she probably greased his pockets some.
Troy Franklin: Wouldn’t be surprising, we know how deep the pockets of Kelly Fox are… but WHY would she insist on a match here tonight? I don’t understand these motives.
Duke King: Obviously has something to do with sending a message to her sister… just like everything we’ve seen Kelly do so far in LAW.
Troy Franklin: That would certainly be in line with her recent actions… I guess we’ll see soon enough as her challenger Jill Turner is in the ring waiting for Kelly’s arrival.
Duke King: Jill is a product of the LAW training center, getting her first taste of action and what better way to do so in this sink or swim situation.
Troy Frainklin: She has the size advantage by a large margin so this should at least be able to use that against the much smaller Kelly.
{The Lights go off as the music begins playing, when the lyrics hit pyrotechnics explode up the ramp into the entrance way and then one big explosion on all four corners of the stage. The lights click on but with a pink hue as Kelly walks out onto the stage with her arms spread, playing to the crowd. She walks to the ring confidently as she smiles at the fans who might be jeering her from the nearby crowd. She slides into the ring and climbs the nearest turnbuckle where she spreads her arms again with an arrogant smirk before laughing and waving off their boos. Kelly jumps down and waits for the match to begin.}
Troy Franklin: Here we go, Kelly looks ready and it appears that neither of her two friends have joined her at ringside.
Duke King: Like I said, she is trying to make a point here… have to prove it yourself.
{The match begins as Jill Turner tries to lock up with Fox but instead takes a quick toe kick right to the stomach. Kelly steps backwards and uses the ropes for prepulsion and flies forward with a running forearm that sends Turner flat on her back. Jill quickly turns over and tries to get back to her feet but Kelly quickly puts her back down with a drop kick. Kelly and Jill both are back on their feet, Jill charges toward Kelly but Fox leaps into the air and uses Jill’s momentum against her by driving her into the mat onto the top of her head with the spike hurricanrana! Kelly jumps up and sprints to the turnbuckle where she spreads her arms out as the crowd boos.}
Troy Franklin: Little known fact… Jill Turner is the younger sister of Jimmy Turner… a forgetable name in the wrestling business whose only notable accomplishment was being the janitor of Kelly’s former wrestling company before he tragically passed away during a broadcast.
Duke King: So what you’re saying here is that Jill has a little extra something to fight for, maybe a little revenge for her brother?
Troy Franklin: Yes. but Kelly sure isn’t making this easy. Jill hasn’t had a single bit of offense thus far.
{Jill holds her head in pain and looks frustrated as she turns over and gets back to her feet. She notices Kelly in the corner showboating and it only upsets her more. Turner charges towards the corner but just before she gets there Kelly flips off backwards and lands on her feet and Jill goes in chest first! Jill, holding her chest in pain, stumbles backwards and Kelly takes a huge handfull of hair and pulls her down into her knee with the hairpull backbreaker! Jill screams out in pain as Kelly gets up and spins around smiling again. Jill turnsover and gets to one knee where Kelly comes in all of a sudden and shining yakuza kick! Kelly hooks a leg and covers 1...2… but Kelly lifts Jill’s shoulders off the mat before three!}
Troy Franklin: What was that… looks like she had this won and instead breaks up the fall herself!
Duke King: She’s incredibly confident.
Troy Franklin: Yeah…. confident is the word for it.
{Kelly gets on her knees, smiling, right above where Jill is pushing herself up, mocking Jill as she struggles to her feet. Turner looks upset but continues to try and make it up. Before she can however, Kelly reaches forward and quickly slaps the taste out of Jill’s mouth. Kelly then jumps to her feet and demands Jill get up and face her. Jill angrily makes it up to her feet. She huffs and puffs and like a raging bull charges towards Kelly. Kelly ducks under it and when Jill turns around KELLY KUTTER (K2)!}
Troy Franklin: Kelly Kutter, out of nowhere.
Duke King: I do believe she never saw it coming.
Troy Franklin: Wait… what is Kelly doing now?
{Kelly doesn’t flip Jill over for the pin, instead she uses her athleticism and instead flips backwards and onto Jill’s back where she repositions herslef and EMBRACE THE KNITE lock!}
Troy Franklin: Oh come on Kelly, is this really necassary?
{Jill can’t really hold on at all, and with what little strength she has left taps out.}
Duke King: Well necessary or not, it got the victory.
{Kelly jumps to her feet amidst the boos and as her theme begins to play. She stands there as if she’s getting admiration instead of boos and soaks up the ambiance. She looks down and sees Jill Turner moving and for some reason this seems to amuse her so Kelly begins laying kicks and stomps into the body of Turner as the boos pick up louder.}
Troy Franklin: Let it go Kelly, you’ve won.
{Suddenly the boos turn to cheers as Zelda comes running out of the back.}
Troy Franklin: YES! Here comes Zelda to put an end to this.
{EMF coming running down the ramp and Kelly just stands there looking at them as they go to slide into the ring, but before they can stand up they are grabbed by the legs and pulled right back out of the ring. Jaymie Boone and Ashlie Helms have jumped out of the crowd, seemingly out of nowhere and have yanked Zelda from the ring. Jaymie Boone throws Zelda back first into the steps and Ashlie quickly pulls her away and locks her up, pinning both of Zelda’s arms behind her back. Jaymie comes over and helps while Kelly slides out of the ring and shakes her head at Zelda..}
Zelda: Let me go! I’ll get you Kelly!
Kelly: Really Sydney? This is the best you’ve got? This was your plan? Just run down here and jump me for what The Alliance did to Skye two weeks ago? You really think I wouldn’t have Jaymie and Ashlie here watching my back knowing that you wanted revenge? This is exactly what I’m talking about! You’ve grown weak! Can’t you see that with us behind you, with the Alliance of Violence at your call situations like this would never happen again. just think how angry you are right now that you are powerless to get at me, jus think how infuriating it is to have me mocking you to your face right now! Now imagine yourself standing where I’m at and how great it must feel to see somebody so powerless before you…
Zelda: I’ll never join you! I’m better than you and I don’t need these goombas to help me!
{Kelly looks annoyed as she walks towards Zelda, and then suddenly slaps her little sister-in-law as hard as she can causing Zelda to go weak kneed and grimace in pain as Ashlie and Jaymie hold her up.}
Kelly: See what you made me do!? Dont’ be an idiot Zelda! Don’t make me go any further… end this now.
{Zelda fumes but doesn’t say a word as she just turns away from looking at her sister.}
Kelly: Fine. Have it your way. I already have the contract from Lucas signed. Next LAW event… you and your little friend will be putting the titles on the line against Jaymie and I… when we are done with you two… you’ll wish that you had accepted this offer sooner. It could have been you and I holding those titles together as a beautiful knitemare… but instead… the AoV is going to put an end to EMF. I hope Skye is ready for the show.
{Kelly signals at the girls and they take Zelda nd throw her to the ground before their turn their backs and follow Kelly. Despite the fact that all three have their backs turned and are walking away Zelda lays on the ground and angrily just glares at them as they walk away.}
Troy Franklin: What is going on here? They just let her go and Zelda isn’t fighting back…
Duke King: She can’t fight them… she knows that, she’s powerless just like she will be in two weeks when the AoV takes those tag team titles away from her.
Troy Franklin: Whatever you say Duke...
Beth Harris: Ladies and Gentlemen, The following is the finals of the Queen of the Ring tournament!
{Evie appears at the top of the ramp, waves to the fans before strutting in time to the music to the ring where she straddles the second rope, blowing a kiss to the fans before getting in, cracking her knuckles and waiting}
Troy Franklin: Evie Taylor is two down right now. And only one to go.
Duke King: But that one may not even make it out here. Evie may just win this by forfeit...
{Evie paces back and forth as The Takedown” begins over the PA. There's a long wait, smoke build up, and smoke and everything, but no Jennifer Drew. Finally, her music cuts out, and there are boos.}
Troy Franklin: Looks like Jennifer's not coming...
Duke King: Well, they'll give her another shot, but from the looks of things, Jennifer's night is over.
{Finally, "Fighter" begins and Lucas Dupree makes his way to the ring, a concerned look on his face, as he enters the ring with Evie wondering what's going on.}
Lucas Dupree: I really, really hate to have to come out here and say this, but unfortunately, Jennifer Drew was eliminated from the tournament shortly after advancing.
{Boos.}
Lucas Dupree: I know that Jennifer is not happy about it, I'm not happy about it, Evie, I know you're not happy about it. Because you people paid to see a Queen crowned. But, it was determined by trainers and doctors, and everyone else that Jennifer was deemed unable to compete.
{More boos.}
Lucas Dupree: So, it was determined that the match between Nyako and Evelyn Taylor that took place a short while ago, was going to decide the winner. Therefore, the winner of the Queen of the ring, is Evelyn Taylor!
{Mixed reaction for the announcement.}
Lucas Dupree: Now, In regards to the runner up, situation. Nyako officially sits at the runner-up due to the circumstances. Jennifer did rightfully advance, but the actions of Gabrielle Salinas forced her out of action for tonight. So, it has been determined, that Nyako, and Jennifer Drew will compete at LAW 14 to decide the rightful number one contender. However, at LAW 13, Jennifer will face Gabrielle Salias one on one!
{Another Mixed reaction.}
Lucas Dupree: So, At anti-climatic as this is, Congratulations, to you Evelyn.
{Lucas appluads Evelyn as he exits the ring. As the crowd cheers at the crowning of the new Queen of the Ring, “Suffocate” by Cold plays and the fans immediately start to boo. Sidney Grey walks out, ignoring the crowd as she makes a beeline towards the ring.}
Duke King: Troy, Sid said that she would come out and confront whoever won that match…it looks like she is making good on that threat!
{Sidney snatches a microphone from ringside and rolls in as the fans boo loudly. Sidney gets to her feet and glares at Evelyn…pacing back and forth as she mocks applause of her own.}
Sidney Grey: Well now…look at you…you won the whole thing and now you are standing here as the Queen of LAW…Queen of the Ring!
{The fans cheer, if not for love of the winner…for their hatred of Sidney. Sidney gets right into Evie's face…staring her in the eyes.}
Sidney Grey: Congratulations…
{Sidney rears back and smacks Evie hard across her face and the sound echoes through the arena like a shotgun blast. The new Queen goes reeling back in the corner. Sidney turns to the crowd screaming…}
Sidney Grey: I SHOULD BE QUEEN!! I SHOULD HAVE BEEN IN THAT MATCH!! I AM YOUR QUEEN!! I SHOULD BE THE QUEEN OF THE RING!!
{Sidney turns around and she is turned inside out by a devastating spear that sends her tumbling outside the ring and down to the floor as she holds her midsection, writhing in pain. Evie throws up her hands and the crowd roars.}
Duke King: So much for that! Our new Queen is having none of it!
Troy Franklin: That is not likely to shut Sidney up for long…but she’s silent for the moment and the new Queen reigns supreme!
Beth Harris: Ladies and Gentlemen, this is the main event of the evening! It's set for one fall, and it is for the LAW Championship!
{The Doc comes out of the curtain and walks to the ring, she is hot and has sweet jugs.}
{“Monster by Paramore” begins to blast all over the speakers. As it does so we are able to see Kate Steele-Warren emerge on the entrance ramp. She has a guitar in her hand but she doesn’t even bother to strum at it. She shows absolutely no emotion before she decides to hand her guitar to her husband Todd Warren who escorts her. She walks down to the ring locked in a trance as fans eagerly stretch out their arms to get the redhead to slap their hands. However what they get in return is nothing. No screaming, no reaction, just Kate simply walking to the ring. Todd smiles as he takes her place and tries to slap their hands but the fans pull back as they give him dirty looks.
She finally makes her way to the ring and once she get’s there she quickly slides into the ring. The fans roar with Steele chants but she just bounces around for a bit not acknowledging them as her mind is focus on the match itself.}
Troy Franklin: This is it Duke. This is what it's all about.
Duke King: Finally, Kate Steele and the Doc will finally hook up. This has been highly anticipated for close to 2 months!
{The bell rings and the crowd roars in approval as Kate and Doc circle one another. Doc begins pulling on the ropes to stretch before continuing to circle Kate. They each put out their hands, trying to gain position on the other. Doc eventually moves in on Kate, and lock fingers momentarily and Doc overpowers Kate back into a corner, the ref steps in and forces the break, which Doc does cleanly. The two step back to the center of the ring and circle again. This time, they do lock up and Doc goes behind with a waistlock. Kate gets her left arm in between Doc and her waist, and spins into a headlock. Cranking on the move, Kate forces Doc to one knee. Doc is able to get back to a standing position and quickly drop toe holds Kate to the ground. Doc tries to go for the grounded headlock, but Kate rolls away before it can happen. Kate gets to her feet and she and Doc circle again, and lock up. Kate gets another headlock, and Doc forces her against the ropes, where Doc throws a couple of forearms to the gut of Kate. Kate responds with the stiff shot to the head of Doc that sends her staggering back. Kate moves forward and nails Doc with another stiff right, then leans her against the ropes and on the rebound takes Doc down with a flying clothesline!}
Troy Franklin: Nice clothesline by Kate.
Duke King: That could be the difference. Kate has been in these big matches before, but the Doc is a rookie in more ways than one in this environment.
{Kate gets up and locks on a front face lock on the Doc as she get up. Kate squeezes, possibly looking for a guillotine choke. Doc counters with right hands to the gut, but Kate continues to squeeze. Doc responds with a modified bear hug, causing discomfort to Kate’s back. Kate continues to squeeze, but Doc then gets a rush of adrenaline and picks up Kate and runs her back-first into the corner. Kate releases and falls to her knees, clutching her back, while Doc checks her throat and neck, gaining air back in her body.}
Troy Franklin: Doc with a nice counter!
Duke King: Kate did take a lot of air out of the Doc early in this match, we'll see how much of an effect it takes out of him.
{Doc goes over to Kate and delivers a hard forearm to the back, then another. Doc pulls Kate to her feet, and leans her against the ropes. Doc rears back for a chop, but Kate gets her forearms up to block. Doc shakes out her hand, and eats a hard forearm. Kate locks in another headlock, but Doc instantly rams her back-first into the corner again. Doc then drives hard shoulders to the Kate’s gut in the corner. Then Doc rears back and unleashes another huge chop. Doc throws Kate across to the opposite corner, and follows Kate in with a huge running dropkick! Kate slumps in the corner as Doc gets back up. Sensing victory, Doc pulls Kate out of the corner and makes the cover! 1……2… Kate kicks out!}
Troy Franklin: And now Doc is picking up the pace!
{Doc pulls Kate up and hits a nice scoop slam. Doc then bounces off the ropes and drops an elbow. Doc makes another cover. 1…..2….Kick out by Kate. Doc gets up and stands over Kate, who’s on her stomach. Doc grabs both arms and surfboards them, trying to push Kate’s shoulder blades together. Doc pushes for all she’s worth, while Kate yells in pain, but does not submit. Kate eventually is able to get to her knees, and then to one knee while Doc continues to push with the surfboard. Kate gets up to a standing position and then flips and kicks Doc right in the gut and doubles her over.}
Troy Franklin: Kate is able to escape that nice submission by the Doc.
Duke King: Doc is wrestling a smart match those, she's keeping it basic, not trying to make many mistakes, but safe might not win her the championship.
{Doc drops to her knees in pain as Kate slowly gets up clutching her back. Kate goes over to the Doc and pulls her to her feet, and drives an elbow to the back of Doc’s head. Kate leans Doc against the ropes and throws her off, bouncing off the ropes behind her herself, Kate jumps at Doc for a cross-body, but Doc catches Kate and powerslams her to the mat!

Kate spins Doc around leaning her against the ropes, and whips her in, catching her on the rebound with a dropkick that drops the Doc. Kate gets to her feet, then hits the ropes again, and delivers a low dropkick to the Doc that sends her out of the ring, landing hard on the floor!}
Troy Franklin: And Kate with a nice flurry there!
Duke King: And it looks like she's not done!
{Kate readies herself in the ring as the Doc lays on the floor. Doc slowly collects herself on the floor, standing up, only to be knocked back down by a suicide dive by Kate!}
Troy Franklin: Suicide Dive connects!
Duke King: Doc took that full force!
{Both lay on the outside trying to recover. The referee starts his 10 count over again 1……2……3……4 Kate is first to her feet and pulls the Doc up and tosses her back into the ring.
