CUT TO: INT. THE BACKSTAGE AREA - THE ULTRAVIOLENT COMPLEX - CONTINUOUS Samantha Baltimore and Reece Crosslin are standing outside Julian Cortez’s office. Reece is dressed like you would expect the beautiful Dean Ambrose to dress - jeans, wife beater, and leather jacket. Of course he's not quite as gorgeous as Dean but he does look like someone who is ready to beat Noah Reigner’s candy ass later on tonight! Samantha is dressed in her version of business casual which is a pair of skinny black dress pants, low cut black top, cropped black blazer, and red heels. The two are in deep conversation. Unbeknownst to them, Noah Reigner’s bodyguard Eve is sneaking up behind them, steel chair in hand. The brunette is quick as a cat but Samantha sees her right as she raises the chair to slam Reece in the back.
SAMANTHA BALTIMORE “REECE!”
Samantha shoves Reece out of the way and eats a steel chair to the face!! Before Reece can react, the door of Julian’s office busts open and Noah Reigner spears Reece right into the wall across from the now open door. Behind Noah is SCUV referee Henry Washington (who hasn't been seen since Aliyah Turner tried to take his manhood tbh). Noah quickly covers Reece and Washington drops down to count!

KICKOUT!
Now you're probably asking yourself ‘wtf is going on omgggggggg’ but relax. There's a simple explanation for all of this. Julian Cortez casually strolls out of his office, hands in the pockets of his designer slacks. Behind him is his daughter and Noah’s uhhhhhhhhhh friend, Aryanna Cortez. She's holding a ring bell.
DING DING DING!
Looks like we have an official match on our hands!
CUT TO: INT. THE RINGSIDE AREA - THE ULTRAVIOLENT COMPLEX - CONTINUOUS The fans sitting inside the Complex are rowdy as fuck thanks to what has just transpired backstage. Things don't get any better as the small video screen shows Julian stepping over Noah, who is beating the living hell out of Reece at the moment, and heading towards the ring area. The owner of SCUV is greeted with a chorus of jeers as he makes his way from the back and onto the small stage area.
JULIAN CORTEZ “Before the participants of the first match come out to compete, I want them -- and everyone else -- to hear this special announcement. I played a vital role in getting So-Cal Ultraviolent a television deal upon taking over the company, and I am the reason that Asylum comes to you live every other week. The network heads have been impressed with the ratings and they have not only requested, but funded the creation of a brand new championship.”
The jeers that once filled the Complex turned into cheers.
JULIAN CORTEZ “The only rule they require, is that the Television Championship be defended at each and every Asylum event. I’m going to do one better for them, though. Tonight … RIGHT NOW the first ever Television Champion will be crowned, and yes - they will defend the championship for the first time at the very next Asylum. So to John Sullivan, Katie Anderson and Trixie? - One of you three will be the first ever Television champion. Buena suerte.”
MATCH ONE: Trixie vs. Katie Anderson vs. John Sullivan -- Ladder Match for the Television Championship. All of the competitors have made their entrances. Everyone’s attention is immediately up to the new Television championship that is strapped to a ring being suspended from the top of the Complex. And then, everyone’s attention turned to each other. Katie and Trixie stood in the same corner, agreeing that their best chance is to work together to try and eliminate Sullivan. Sullivan rubs his hands together, a sinister smile on his face as he eyes the two women across from him. After the bell is sounded for the official start of the match, Katie and Trixie count to three… before charging!
Or, at least Katie does. Trixie climbs out of the ring and onto the floor.
Katie charges right into a stiff clothesline from the bigger Sullivan. Sullivan shakes his head as he looks down at her, then out to Trixie - whom he urges to get in and join her friend. Trixie crosses her arms over her chest and remains where she stands, taking her time. Sullivan grabs Katie’s hair, yanking her up to her feet. Katie shows how feisty she is, hitting Sullivan with a few strikes to the stomach and side of the head - but they do very little damage to the Titan of the Trailer Park. He eventually pushes her away with a single hand in order to regain himself. Katie doesn’t give him much more time, though, but when she advances again - he lifts a massive knee up to her stomach and flattens her with a clubbing blow to the back that drops her to the mat.
Trixie has uncrossed her arms and moved to one of the ladders that has been placed at ringside. She closes the legs and manages to move the ladder over to the ring. Inside of the ring, Sullivan has pulled Katie up again and thrown her into the corner - where he drives a back elbow into her face, over and over again. All the while, looking outside at Trixie as she moved ladders closer to the ring. First it was the one, and now two are positioned on the outside. After one final elbow, he allows Katie to slump down in the corner as he turned fully to face Trixie. Trixie still had her hands on one of the ladders, and that was the one that Sullivan reached over and grabbed.
He grabbed the ladder with one hand and still was able to start a tug-o-war with Trixie over the ladder, who had a firm grip with both hands. Sullivan leaned over the top rope completely, placing his second hand on the ladder and pulled -- which was when Trixie let go. Sullivan pulls up with all of his might, bringing the ladder with him -- directly into his face. Instantly the big man staggers back, dropping the ladder as it was nearly in the ring - and it sat suspended on the top rope for a second before falling back out to ringside. Sullivan holds his nose and mouth, in a great deal of pain as you could expect. This allows Trixie to push the original ladder into the ring before climbing in herself.
Trixie stands up, but immediately bends down to grab the ladder. As she grips the metal steps, she begins to lift - but a stomp on the ladder from Katie Anderson stops her. Trixie’s hands are sandwiched between the ladder and the mat, and she let out a terrible scream. Snapping up, hands folded into fists, she looks up at her partner. Katie shrugs, points to the TV title and says nothing personal. Trixie’s eyes follow Katie’s hand up - and that’s when Katie strikes, hitting Trixie with a stiff forearm shot that knocks the Bouncing Bunny back a few steps to the ropes. Katie charges forward and hits her ally with a clothesline that flips Trixie up and over the top rope, sending her down to the mat on the outside.
This leaves Katie alone momentarily to turn around and set up the ladder. She drags it into position underneath the championship before beginning to climb. Sullivan, who had been down in the corner being attended to by the referee and Dr. Emily Brewer, finally gets up. His face covered in blood, and at this point we aren't sure whether it's from his nose or mouth. All we know is that he looks pissed. Katie hurries up the ladder as fast as possible, but Sullivan manages to grab a leg and pulls her down a couple of rungs. She flails her leg around before finally managing to kick Sullivan right in that wounded face.
Sullivan staggers back and Katie climbs more. She reaches up, grabbing the title!!...
But can't get it unsnapped right away. She struggles. This gives Sullivan time to move over to the ladder and forcefully push it over, leaving Katie hanging into the title and the hook the title is on, dangling over the ring!
Meanwhile, while all of this had been going on. Trixie has pulled herself together and is up to her feet on the outside. She watches what's going on in the ring and as soon as Katie begins to climb the ladder, Trixie makes her move. She climbs onto the apron and then onto the top rope of the nearest corner. She watches as the ladder is pushed over and see’s Katie dangling. And, in homage to Edge at Wrestlemania Seventeen, Trixie leaps off of the top rope…
SPEAR! TRIXIE SPEARS KATIE ANDERSON OUT OF MID-AIR!
Both women crash to the mat, much to the satisfaction of Sullivan.
He wipes away the blood on his face, before moving over to grab the ladder that he just pushed over. It leans propped up against the top rope, so grabbing it wasn’t hard. He took his time after watching the car crash that just happened. Grabbing the ladder, he turned and set it up in the middle of the ring before then walking around to it’s front and beginning to climb. The big man didn’t rush up the rungs, though. Instead he casually climbed and as he got to the top, just before reaching up to take down the championship - he notices Trixie pushing herself up to her feet and onto the rungs of the ladder. Swearing loudly, Sullivan reaches down and grabs a handful of Trixie’s blonde hair.
Katie rolls out of the ring, landing on her feet after taking that spear moments ago. She’s in a great deal of pain, holding her lower back as she moves to another ladder on the outside. Grabbing it, she moves it toward the ring - sliding it in. She then carefully enters too, occasionally looking up to see Sullivan feeding Trixie heavy closed fist rights to the side of the head. Trixie eats shot after shot, but is holding onto the ladder for dear life. Katie picks up the newly introduced ladder, setting it up directly next to the one where Sullivan and Trixie stand. Unlike Sullivan’s climb up, Katie’s is slow. She’s gone through a lot in this match and that spear nearly broke her in half. But she still pushes on.
Sullivan turns his strikes to Katie as soon as she’s at the top of her ladder. Then back to Trixie. Back and forth until Katie manages to avoid a shot, and feeds Sullivan one of her own. It normally wouldn’t have the same effect, but you add in the components that he doesn’t have his feet properly planted on the ground - and those facial injuries right now, Sullivan does look uneasy on the ladder after the shot. He turns to Trixie and she gives him her own forearm shot. Now it’s Katie and Trixie’s turns to go back and forth with shots on Sullivan until they both grab the back of his head and slam it off of the top of the ladders.
Trixie and Katie look at one another before nodding and each wrapping a arm around Sullivan’s neck. Everyone in the Complex who wasn’t on their feet (and really, who wouldn’t be?!) to watch Trixie and Katie position themselves for.. A suplex to Sullivan! On the count of three, they both try their hardest to power Sullivan up --- but it doesn’t work. He remains standing on his rung. They try again, but nothing doing. It would be Sullivan showing that impressive strength of his when he turns the tables, lifting both Trixie and Katie in the same suplex fashion! He holds them elevated for just a second before falling backward off of his ladder … SUPERPLEXING EVERYONE!
“HO-LY SHIT!” chants erupt through the Complex while all three competitors are laid out cold. The ladders wobbled for a moment, but both stay up and eventually settle. Trixie lay on her back, eyes open and staring at the lights. Katie has flipped onto her stomach and has her head buried in her arm. Sullivan rolls onto his side, inhaling deep, his face still bloodied from the impact with the ladder before. All three are feeling the effects of this match now and it takes a long few moments before anyone even begins to stir.
The first one showing signs of life is Katie Anderson. She slowly crawled to the ropes, using them to pull herself up to her feet. Trixie has rolled onto her hands and knees and crawled into the nearest corner. Sullivan’s moved to the ropes and sits against them, completely unaware that Katie has began to slowly walk back to the ladders. She grabs a hold of the rungs and begins to slowly work her way up the ladder. In the corner, Trixie’s hands grip around the ropes and she pulls herself up. Sullivan’s eyes finally roll forward and he looks up to see Katie ascending the ladder. Katie reaches the top, and by the way Trixie and Sullivan are moving, she has enough time to reach up and grab the Television Championship.
CRASH!!
Katie’s body hits floor on the outside of the ring!!
Paige has come in from the crowd, pushing the ladder over just as Katie was about to unsnap the championship and remove it from it’s ring. Paige stands tall, looking outside of the ring at Katie - who’s laying in a broken heap on the floor. Payback for the attack at the last Asylum. Though -- Paige wasn’t here for just Katie. Paige slowly turned and looked Trixie who froze in her tracks as she started to walk toward Paige. Trixie takes a step backward, holding up her hands as Paige stalks her.
BAM!
Paige get’s taken out from behind by…. Synistar?! The former Ultraviolent Champion has slipped into the ring and just saved Trixie. But. Wait. This isn’t the original Synistar or even Synistar II. This masked man wears the same mask, same black attire but “III” is seen on the side of his mask. Synistar rolls Paige out of the ring before following out himself. Trixie watches with her lips curled into a smile, then looks up… seeing Sullivan beginning to climb the ladder.
Trixie hurries, as fast as she could, to the ladder and climbs up the other side. Sullivan reaches up, his fingers hook onto the title and he begins to unfasten the belt… only to be hit in the stomach by Trixie’s right hand. He immediately lets go of the title and drops his arms. Trixie fires off another punch, this time to his head. She looks to do another, but Sullivan blocks it and hits one of his own. And then hits her with another right hand. Reaching out, he grabs her by her blonde hair and slams her face off of the top of the ladder -- but she still doesn’t fall.
She steps down one rung to rebalance herself. Sullivan reaches up one more time, but gets another punch to the stomach. He grows frustrated now and rears back his right arm, looking for a heavy haymaker. But stops suddenly when Trixie climbs up and…. Lifts her top! Sullivan’s eyes lock on her goods which makes it easy for Trixie to reach out, giving Sullivan a shove. He falls off of the ladder, but manages to land on his feet. Before he could do anything, however, Trixie’s concealed her “weapons” and reached up, grabbing the championship and removing it from the ring.
WINNER AND NEW TELEVISION CHAMPION: Trixie
CUT TO: INT. THE PARKING LOT AREA - THE ULTRAVIOLENT COMPLEX - CONTINUOUS Reece and Noah have fought their way outside and are in the parking lot. Reece has gotten the upper-hand and he's got Noah by the hair. With little regard for the personal vehicles of his peers, Reece drives Noah’s skull into the side of Finn Whelan’s car.
Karma for having John Sullivan towed two weeks ago, prob.
Noah slumps to the ground and Reece puts the boots to his arch-rival in SCUV. Noah is out but Reece doesn't try and pin him. Instead, he scoops Noah up and suplexes him onto the hood of Whelan’s car! Noah’s feet hit the windshield hard, cracking it. Reece climbs onto the hood of the vehicle and drops his knee into Noah’s face. This time, Reece makes the cover!
….
….
Henry Washington is taking a selfie.
Literally.
Reece scowls and climbs off Finn Whelan’s battered vehicle. The California Condor slaps the iPhone from Henry’s hands. The distraction allows Eve to come back into the picture and she cracks a metal trashcan over the head of Reece Crosslin! Reece drops down on his knees and Eve slams that trashcan into his head again. Reece falls forward and Eve tosses the weapon to the ground.
CUT TO: MATCH TWO: Hailey Banks vs. Linc Coyne -- Bring Your Own Weapon. Linc is already in the ring, whipping his nun-chucks around like he's a freaking ninja turtle. In this bring your own weapon match, no one is surprised to see Coyne harnessing the nun-chucks that he's become so fond of. Hailey, on the other hand, is a pure wrestler. We honestly don't know why she's even in So Cal. She doesn't even like weapons. Will no one else hire her? Something fishy going on there for sure. Anyways. Gwen Stefani's "Hollaback Girl" hits and the audience is eager to see what the perky blonde will choose as her weapon, if she even brings one at all. Hailey steps out from behind the curtain with a man at her side. Any avid Fraternity fans or RSW followers will know him as her bestie, Aiden Van't Hoff. Apparently he is Hailey's weapon tonight. Interesting choice for the Arizona native.
Hailey wastes no time sprinting down the rampway and sliding into the ring. Aiden doesn't see the urgency and saunters down the ramp. As Hailey slides into the ring, Linc begins to lay the boots to her and then hits her repeatedly with his nun-chucks. Aiden gets to the ring and jumps up onto the apron. Linc stops his assault thanks to the distraction. He goes to shove Aiden off, but the heir hops down on his own before Linc can lay a finger on him. This gives Hailey enough time to get to her feet and when Linc turns around he eats a spinning heel kick to the face and goes down hard. The LLC Alum takes a moment to play to the crowd - they love her. Turning back to her opponent, she pulls him to his feet. The blonde whips him into the corner hard and then drives her shoulder into his stomach over and over again. The former stuntman crumples to the floor and Hailey doesn’t let up, hitting a knee drop onto his back. And again. And again.
Coyne is out and Banks takes the opportunity to apply an inverted cloverleaf. Linc lets out a scream of agony and realizes he’s in trouble as Hailey applies more pressure to his neck and back. He reaches out for the ropes but he isn’t close enough. He musters up all of his strength and pulls himself, inch by inch closer to the ropes. Linc is still screaming and Hailey doesn’t let up. A few more inches that feels like hours for him and he makes it to the ropes, grabbing on for dear life. Unlike most other superstars in So Cal, Hailey lets up almost immediately. She has morals and all that boring stuff. Rolling out of the ring, Linc grabs at his back and tries to put some space between him and the bubbly blonde.
Ever the professional, Hailey lets Linc catch his breath. But once he’s up to his feet, Hailey runs across the ring and...
SUICIDE DIVE to the outside!
The stuntman goes crashing to the ground and into the steel barricade. Apparently Hailey didn’t really need her secret weapon at all. Both athletes are down and Aiden is yelling at Hailey to “Suck it up and get up!”, because he’s super compassionate.
The So Cal Siren is the first one to her feet but the California native isn’t far behind. He grabs Hailey’s locks and tries to slam her face-first into the steel steps but she puts her hands down just in time, stopping the assault and reverses it, sending Linc’s face bouncing off of the steps instead. He stumbles back but when Hailey turns around Linc clothesline’s her hard, folding her in half. Hailey grabs at the back of her head but Coyne is on top of her quick. But not for long because Aiden rounds the corner and Linc spots him. He gets to his feet, ready to fight anyone in his path. Aiden will do, I guess. Van’t Hoff thinks he’s The Rock for moment and tells Linc to “Bring it”, complete with hand gesture and all.
Coyne doesn’t need to be told twice, he takes a run at Aiden and gets a stiff elbow to the face. Aiden then takes Linc and throws him back into the ring where Hailey is laying in wait. As soon as Coyn gets to his knee’s Hailey hits the “Hussy Buster”, a modified leg drop bulldog and Linc eats the mat. The crowd is completely behind the bubbly blonde because for some reason being obnoxiously happy makes his crowd go wild. They are chanting HAILEY, HAILEY, HAILEY! She can’t help but stop and pose for her adoring fans.
After a few moments of soaking in the love, Banks stalks her prey. As Linc gets to his feet she hits him with the "BITCH BREAKER", her Inverted Facelook transitioned into a Double Knee Backbreaker and goes for the pin.
One.. Two.. Three!
WINNER: Hailey Banks
Aiden rolls into the ring and kicks Linc out of it. He then raises his bestie’s hand in victory as the crowd continues to chant her name.
CUT TO: INT. PARKING LOT AREA - THE ULTRAVIOLENT COMPLEX - CONTINUOUS Thanks to Eve, Noah has regained control of the match. He has Reece by the hair and is dragging him across the concrete parking lot. Reece manages to get some stiff punches in to Noah’s ribcage, which causes Noah to momentarily loosen his grip on his foe. Reece brings his arm up between Noah’s legs and Noah falls to the concrete. Sensing her friend is in trouble, Eve leaps on Reece’s back and wraps her arms tightly around the former Ultraviolent Champion’s throat. Reece is soon gasping for air but he has enough presence of mind to notice a dumpster not too far from where they were fighting. He backs up and Eve’s lower back meets the steel of the dumpster. Despite that, the femme fatale doesn't let go. Reece reaches up and grabs Eve by the hair and flips her over his head. Eve hits the pavement hard and immediately grips her lower back. Reece clutches at his throat, trying to get oxygen back into his lungs.
Noah crawls over to Reece and punches him in the jaw. Reece fires back with a shot of his own. The two men start trading heavy punches. It's just a pure fucking fight between these two. Reece and Noah both stagger to their feet at virtually the same time. Reece kicks Noah in the stomach, grabs him by the hair, and begins dragging him across the parking lot. Once they get close to the road, they begin trading punches once more.
It seems like this fight is literally going to be a San Diego Street Fight.
CUT TO: MATCH THREE: Finn Whelan Vs. Chance Kelly -- Scaffold Match. We cut back into the arena to already see Chance Kelly in the main area of the Complex. The scaffold for the next match is set up inside of the crowd area, right in front of the balcony. Kelly has been out here for a few moments, and we know this because at the bottom of the scaffold, he has set up a number of tables. He has plans for these and they involve him throwing Finn off of the scaffold and through these tables. To make things even worse, Kelly grabs a bag off of the merchandise table that sets up not too far away - a bag that we’ve seen used before by a few athletes for So-Cal - and dumps the contents over the tops of each table. Those contents were, of course, thumbtacks.
Kelly dropped the bag on the floor and turned around, to get blasted in the head with a steel chair from Finn Whelan, who came through the crowd. Finn dropped the chair as Kelly staggered back, leaning onto the tables for support. Finn closed the gap, grabbing Kelly by the back of the head and hammering him with multiple forearm shots. Finn’s showing a ruthless attitude, embracing the Ultraviolent culture. Finn took a moment during his forearm shots to yell out to the crowd, which gave Kelly the opening he needed. Kelly lifted a big knee up into Finn’s stomach which caused Finn to release his grip. Kelly pushed himself away from the tables, tackling Finn down to the floor where he mounted him and showed his brawling expertise. He choked Finn with one hand, using the other to fit a series of hammerfists to his face.
Kelly continues this for a couple of moments before standing up and viciously stomping once on Finn’s chest. Finn sits up immediately after that stomp, letting out a brief yell. Kelly reaches down, grabbing Finn by the hair and pulling him up to his feet. Kelly drags Finn over to the merchandise table, and literally throws him up and over the table - sending t-shirts and other items everywhere. Kelly bends down, picking up a DVD copy of an Asylum episode and throws it directly in Finn’s face. Finn fights back to his feet and expertly uses a nearby shirt as he avoided a lunging right hand. Finn uses the shirt to wrap around Kelly’s arm. He wraps it tight and uses it to pull Kelly over the table. Now both fighters behind the table, Finn jumps up to the tabletop, facing away from Kelly. Finn knows that Kelly has worked himself up to his feet, and throws a kick behind him that catches Kelly in the face.
Kelly stumbles back, giving Finn enough room to -- Moonsault backward onto Kelly, taking them both down to the floor!
The fans crowded around the merch table, taking photos and videos on their cell phones while both men lay out on the floor momentarily. Finally, both begin to stir. Finn uses the merch table to pull himself up and he notices the referee standing there - telling them to go up to the scaffold. Finn didn’t acknowledge him in anyway, but he did begin to make his way through the sea of people to the erected scaffold. Kelly has returned to his feet now too, and rips a beer from the hands of one of the fans - chugging it down in quick fashion, not giving a fuck that some spilt onto him. The fan who is now sans-beer, thinks it’s a good idea to challenge Kelly about that fact - and gets pie-faced to the ground by Kelly who proceeds to tell the fan to “Shut y’ur fockin’ mouth or I’m gonna’ fuck it!”
Kelly moves to the scaffold that Finn has already begun to climb. Kelly wipes away the alcohol from his mouth and begins to climb up as well. On top of the scaffold, Finn looks around at the surroundings - noticing how high the scaffold is. He also notices that the balcony is just to the side of the scaffold. Kelly climbs to the top of the scaffold and pushes himself up to his feet, and that is when the match officially begins.
The two go right at it, exchanging punches at the top of the scaffold. Back and forth until Kelly’s striking power gives him the advantage. Kelly hits one strike successfully and it backs Finn away, allowing him to follow up with another and another before grabbing the back of Finn’s head and attempting to slam it off of the hand railing of the scaffold. Finn, though, puts his hands out and stops himself by grabbing onto the railing. Moving his right hand away from the rail, he elbows Kelly in the stomach a couple of times which breaks his hold on Finn’s head. Kelly backs away and Finn turns to him, looking to his a savate kick - which Kelly grabs and stops.
Kelly, resorting back to that brawling nature, brings his foot up and low blows Finn in this position before dropping Finn’s leg down and immediately following up with an incredibly stiff headbutt that drops Finn to the floor of the scaffold. That headbutt, though, did make Kelly a little wobbly too. Kelly does shake it off, though, and stomps on Finn a couple of times trying to push him to the edge of the scaffold with his boot. Finn pushes Kelly’s boot away and fights up to his knees. Kelly remains on top of his opponent, hitting him in the side of the head with multiple punches. Finn, showing his heart and resiliency though, still pushes up to his feet. Kelly steps back and allows him up, only to lunge forward and … “DATE RAPE”! A solid punch directly to the back of the head that causes Finn to faceplant on the scaffold. Kelly turns away from the fallen Finn, and reaches into the crowd on the balcony - grabbing a vacated steel chair. The Public Enemy from Luton wants to make sure Finn is out of this completely. Finn has begun to move, and grabs a hold of the railing of the scaffold - using it to help him to his feet. He returns vertical just in time to turn and see Kelly lifting the chair high above his head. Finn stops him with a kick to the stomach, which doubles over Kelly. Finn doesn’t immediately take advantage, still reeling from that punch to the back of the head. Kelly straightens up again, lifting the chair again. This time when Finn attempts a savate kick, Kelly can’t block it. Finn kicks the chair directly into Kelly’s face!
Kelly stumbles back, but doesn’t fall. He backs up to the back railing, which Finn would charge to and clothesline him up and over --- into the balcony area! The crowd parts around Kelly, giving him room to get up. Finn climbs onto the railing of the scaffold, and leaps off at Kelly - taking him down with a crossbody block. Finn rolls up to his feet and waits as Kelly returns to his feet. Finn reaches out and grabs Kelly by the back of the head, slamming him face-first into the railing of the balcony. He pulls him up and looks to do it again, but Kelly blocks it and turns the tables - hitting Finn in the stomach and slamming his head onto the railing.
Kelly backs up before charging to clothesline Finn back onto the scaffold as was done to him a moment ago. Kelly climbs over the railings and onto the scaffold. Finn landed awkwardly on the scaffold, his head bouncing off of the chair that Kelly had earlier. Kelly grabbed Finn by the head and set him up in a reverse piledriver hold. Kelly walks to the edge of the scaffold and screams out, “THA’ FOCKIN’ SHAG, BABY!” - telling us what he’s going for. However. Finn kicks his feet and manages to flip Kelly over and reverse the move! Kelly tries to pull his body away from Finn, but Finn swings him to the right and SMACK! Kelly’s head hit the railing of the Scaffold, and Finn dropped him.
Kelly laid out for a moment before pushing himself up to his feet. Finn waited patiently before jumping up, wrapping his legs around Kelly’s neck and hitting a perfect Hurricanrana -- a hurricanrana that would see Kelly flipping out and..
OFF OF THE SCAFFOLD!
Kelly falls all the way down… CRASHING through the tumbtacked tables he set up before the match!
WINNER:Finn Whelan
CUT TO: INT. SHELL GAS STATION - ACROSS FROM THE ULTRAVIOLENT COMPLEX - CONTINUOUS The street fight resumes with the horrendous image of Noah Reigner having the life choked out of him via a gas pump wrapped around his neck. Eve is out cold next to the vehicle Reece Crosslin had ripped the pump from.
MOMENTS AGO Eve goes for a martial arts style kick to the side of Reece’s skull, but Reece catches her foot. Eve shakes her head as if to say ‘no’ and begs Reece to let her go. A sick smile crosses his face. This match has been nothing more than a 2-On-1 affair and Reece knows he has the chance to even the odds now! He's not aware that Noah is lined up behind him, ice chest in hand. Yes, Noah literally just grabbed some customer’s ice chest from the back of said customer’s truck. Reece notices Eve’s eyes look behind him so he lets her go and ducks!
BAM!!!
Noah slams the ice chest right into Eve’s face and she goes down like a ton of bricks. Noah violently curses but before he can check on Eve, Reece rips a gas pump from the vehicle beside them and wraps the hose part around Noah’s neck!
Noah is fading out but of course that stupid rat bastard Henry Washington is nowhere to be found! Noah slumps to the ground and Reece looks down at his arch nemesis. Then, Reece looks around for Henry. The cameras catch Reece looking inside the store.
Fucking Henry Washington is at the goddamn register! PULLING MONEY FROM HIS WALLET!!!!
Reece just shakes his head in disbelief
CUT TO: MATCH FOUR: Dick Devereaux Vs. Tommy Knox -- Barbed Wire Ropes. Tommy Knox is down to the ring first, carefully dodging the barbs to enter the ring. Devereaux is out next, armed with his trusty baseball bat. The ‘Los Renegados’ member enters the ring and charges at Knox, wildly swinging the baseball bat. Knox manages to just barely dodge the swing, and elbows Devereaux as he steps behind him. The elbow catches Devereaux just under the rigcage and that makes him instantly drop the bat. Devereaux turns around only to catch a kick from Knox in the leg. Knox fires off another shot, before Devereaux can even regain his composure enough to fire off a forearm strike.
Knox changes his game plan and fires a forearm strike of his own. Back and forth the two exchange neither gaining the upper hand, that is until Knox expertly blocks one. Knox grabs Devereaux’s arm and attempts the first whip to the ropes - but Devereaux manages to stop himself before the ropes. Knox lets out a frustrated yell before charging at Devereaux, only to get caught with a heel kick to his stomach from Devereaux. Knox doubled over and Devereaux grabbed Knox by the hair, dragging him to the ropes of barbed wire and raking his face across it!
Knox lets out a loud scream as his flesh is ripped open from the barbs. Devereaux, who still has a hold of Knox’s hair, whips him backward - viciously throwing him down to the mat. Knox rolls over onto his stomach, beginning to crawl away from Devereaux. Blood is beginning to trickle down Knox’s face. Devereaux turns and stalks Knox, grabbing him by the hair again to pull him up to his knees. This is when Knox begins to fight back, throwing punches to Devereaux’s stomach which causes him to release his grip.
Knox pushes himself up to his feet just as Devereaux takes a step back. Devereaux closes the gap quickly and attempts a clothesline - which Knox ducks underneath, catching him and hitting a quick sit out Spinebuster! Knox remains seated, his legs over Devereaux’s shoulders for a count ...
One.. Tw--
Devereaux kicks out before the two is counted. Knox rolls over and up to his feet. Devereaux does the same and the two end up on their feet at about the same time. Devereaux throws a strike, hitting Knox in the side of the head Hard before grabbing his arm and looking to whip him -- but Knox reverses it and sends “The Butcher” right into the barbed wire! Devereaux let out a loud yell as he peeled himself away from the barbed wire, his “Los Renegados” shirt now ripped on the back.
CUT TO: INT. SHELL GAS STATION - ACROSS FROM THE ULTRAVIOLENT COMPLEX - CONTINUOUS Inside the Shell station, Reece Crosslin is standing proudly on top of the counter. The clerk and several customers have scattered. Henry Washington is out cold on the ground below Reece, the pack of cigarettes he had been in the process of purchasing shoved in his mouth. Reece somersaults off the counter and lands right on top of Henry!!! Reece covers Henry and honestly, Reece Crosslin could have counted to 272626292276336. Henry is done and there's no way in hell hes going to get up.
Reece is slow to pull himself up and once he does, he's met with a glass beer bottle right to the face! Almost immediately Reece starts bleeding and the opportunistic Noah Reigner begins digging broken glass right into Reece Crosslin’s forehead.
CUT TO: We cut back to the Barbed Wire match. Knox has continued the pressure, hitting a couple of high impact maneuvers. Devereaux was doing his best to fight back, hitting a few strikes when allowed. He would eventually back Knox up with a series of chops that closed the gap between Knox and the barbed wire ropes. Devereaux then charges toward Knox, which Knox grabs him and tosses him up in the air - flapjacking him down throat first onto the barbed wire!
Devereaux hits the mat and rolls underneath the bottom strand of barbed wire and out of the ring. His hands immediately went to his neck, checking for blood. He looked up into the ring, a snarl on his face. He then reached underneath the ring, pulling out a steel chair, a trash can and another spool of barbed wire and wire cutter. He tosses them all into the ring - then slides in underneath the bottom “rope”.
Knox grabbed one of the chairs that Devereaux threw in, and swung before Devereaux could even get up to his feet. Devereaux, though, rolled out of the way. He grabbed his baseball bat that he had before as he returned to his feet, and swung as Knox lifted the chair for another swing. The baseball bat connected with Knox’s ribs and he instantly dropped the chair. Devereaux grabbed the bat at both ends before driving it into the throat of Knox, pushing him down to the mat and viciously choking him with the bat.
Knox thrashes around until Devereaux believes it's time to let him go. Devereaux stands up and moves to the spool of barbed wire. He unravels a length and cuts it with the cutter he also threw in - and with that length of barbed wire, he wrapped it around his fist. Even though he grimaced in pain as he did so, he turned to mount Knox, beginning to hammer punches down to his head. The barbed wire digging into both men's flesh with each punch.
Devereaux eventually stops. His hand covered in his own and Knox’s blood. He carefully unwraps the barbed wire as its dug into his knuckles. Knox lays out, his face covered in a crimson mask. Slowly he rolls himself over to his hands and knees and begins to push himself up to his feet.
Devereaux approaches Knox before he's vertical, looking to wrap that length of barbed wire around Knox’s neck - however Knox explodes up to his feet. Seeing his blood must have given him an adrenaline boost. He hits rapid fire forearm shots to Devereaux’s head, his free hand grabbing the back of Devereaux’s head to prevent him from moving. Knox finishes off the series of strikes with a discus clothesline that floors Devereaux.
Knox bends down and grabs the length of barbed wire that Devereaux had - and wraps it around Devereaux’s neck! The barbed cutting into his flesh as Knox pulls back, also choking Devereaux in the process. Devereaux thrashes around, bringing up a hand to lace his fingers between his neck and the barbed wire to not only alleviate some of the pain but to prevent the choking. His free hand reaching out and grabbing a chair. That's when Knox releases the barbed wire.
Knox stands up, yanking the chair from Devereaux as he begins to stand up. Once he’s fully vertical.. CRACK! Knox slams the chair onto Devereaux’s head with sickening force. Devereaux is instantly down, and instantly blood begins to pour from his head. Knox lifts the chair only to slam it down onto Devereaux once again!
Devereaux lets out a terrible yell as Knox drops the chair and grabbing the back of Devereaux’s head, dragging it across the bottom “rope”. The barbs ripping his flesh open more. Knox releases Devereaux and allows his opponent to stand on his own. Once he does, though, Devereaux is caught with a hard right kick to the thigh, immediately followed by another one. Those kicks were quickly followed by a left spinning kick to the stomach and then a quick, powerful DDT that drives Devereaux’s head into that previously discarded steel chair!
Devereaux looks to be out cold. Knox picks up the steel chair and sets it up in the corner of the ring. He then moves to the spool of barbed wire and unravels quite a length of it before cutting it with the previously used wires. What happens next is hard to watch. For some reason, Knox holds one end of the barbed wire length to his stomach and wraps the length around his chest. You could see him wince in pain as he does, the barbs piercing his flesh. Knox then walks to the set up steel chair, stepping onto the seat and then.. Up to the top rope! With perfect balance, he turns himself around before jumping off..
“AMERICAN HIGH LIFE”!
He hits his frog splash and instantly he lets out a loud scream of pain! He wrapped himself in barbed wire and hit Devereaux with a frog splash, driving the barbs into - not only Devereaux’s chest, but his own as well. But Knox remains draped across Devereaux.
One.. Two.. Three!
WINNER: Tommy Knox
CUT TO: INT. MCDONALD’S - ACROSS FROM THE ULTRAVIOLENT COMPLEX - CONTINUOUS Reece continues to bleed as Noah drapes him across the booth inside of the McDonald’s that's right next door to the Shell station. Noah lays a massive chop to Reece Crosslin’s chest and staggers back. The people inside the restaurant are in shock and so are the workers as these two men have brought their fight into the building. Noah grabs a salt shaker from the table and drives it into Reece’s open wound. At this point he just wants to literally rub salt into Reece’s forehead. Reece starts screaming and kicks at Noah, sending him flying back into a table. Noah tumbles over, the table falling on top of him.
Reece uses his hand to rub the blood and salt from his face and slowly sits up. He sees Noah is just as winded as he is, and decides that it's time to take another chance. It takes Reece a moment to get to his feet but once he does he backflips himself off the booth, looking to land on top of Noah and the other table. Noah is able to roll out of the way and Reece’s crashes and burns. Wisely, Noah drapes his arm across Reece’s chest but there's no Henry Washington around. Noah slams his hand into the floor out of frustration.
CUT TO: CO-MAIN EVENT: Reece Crosslin Vs. Noah Reigner -- San Diego Street Fight. Eve has made her way over to the McDonalds and Noah is screaming at her to do whatever she needs to do to get Henry Washington back into the match so he can do his actual job. Eve nods, grabs a bag of food off a nearby table, and takes off back towards the Shell station. Reece comes out of nowhere! He takes Noah down with a running enzuigiri. Noah slams into the counter where people place their orders and Reece rips one of the registers from its place on the counter. He smashes the register right into Noah’s face! Noah is out for a second time in the match and Reece drops down for a cover.
It's pointless because Eve had yet to make it back with Henry.
Reece gets back to his feet and grabs Noah by the hair. Noah’s limp so Reece is actually just dragging dead weight behind him. They both end up back outside but Reece isn't interested in bringing them back to the Complex. Instead, Reece hauls Noah up and slings him over his shoulder. Next door to McDonalds is the popular albeit low-rent strip club Cookies ‘N Cream. It's exactly what you think it probably is, and Reece uses his foot to kick the door open. He deposits Noah in the doorway, grabs a trash can from beside the door, and dumps the contents right on Noah.
“Pour Some Sugar On Me” is playing inside the club. It's probably the universal song for classless strippers everywhere but the pudgy slut wrapped around the pole on center stage has stopped dancing and is watching just like everyone else. Yes pervs, she's topless.
Reece is framed inside the doorway and is beating the absolute living shit out of Noah with the puke green trash can. Noah is alive, by the way, but like he can't defend himself at this point. Reece is basically just pretending he’s Bret Hart beating the shit out of Vince McMahon at Wrestlemania 26, finally letting go of his angst from the Montreal Screwjob. It's kind of ridiculous. Reece tosses the trashcan to the side and pulls Noah inside the club. Showing off his submission arsenal, he drops down and wraps Noah in a figure four. Noah immediately comes to thanks to the pain and immediately begins thrashing around. Eventually, Noah is able to muscle Reece over and reverse the hold, but Reece wisely lets it go.
Reece goes to the bar and grabs a bottle of Smirnoff vodka. He slams it into Noah’s face and glass flies everywhere. Noah has a delayed reaction to having a liquor bottle slammed into his face and for the briefest of moments he and Reece just stare into one another's eyes. Noah's fall to the ground and again, there's no referee around so Reece can't exactly go for the cover. He begins putting the boots to Noah. He just wants to hurt him now.
Eve has made her way back into the fray and she's got Henry Washington with her. He's munching on French fries and a Filet-O-Fish. Needless to say, he's recovered from the somersault Reece annihilated him with earlier. Eve takes one look at Reece beating the living hell out of Noah and she just completely snaps. She begins raining down blow after blow on Reece’s back. Reece whirls around and takes a wild swing at her, but Eve catches him in the stomach with a sharp kick and plants him into the floor with a DDT. The topless stripper and several customers have closed in to get a good look at the action and Eve drapes Noah over Reece. They wait for Henry to make the count.
He's still eating the goddamn Filet-O-Fish sandwich.
Eve shoves him hard in the chest as Noah staggers to his feet. He's not completely sure where he is but for some reason the sight of Henry not doing his job and eating that stupid sandwich just causes Noah to see red. He takes a moment to collect himself and snatches the Filet-O-Fish from Henry’s mouth. Noah slaps it into the naked chest of the stripper and piefaces her to the ground. He gets up in Henry’s face and starts screaming at him and that distraction allows Reece to grab a handful of pants and roll Noah up for a quick count.
Henry goes to count because he's just pissed Noah wasted a perfectly good Filet-O-Fish but Eve grabs him by the neck. She wants to chokeslam him but all of a sudden…
SPEAR!
Samantha Baltimore begins wailing away on Eve and together, she and Reece start cleaning house. To hell with being Julian’s stupid fucking assistant. Samantha will not let Reece lose this match. This match that was once a handicap match is now an intergender fight. Reece and Samantha look at one another and grin. It's time to take the fight back to their second home, The Ultraviolent Complex.
CUT TO: INT. THE RINGSIDE AREA - THE ULTRAVIOLENT COMPLEX - CONTINUOUS The fans inside the building have been glued to the video screen that was hung above the entrance. An upgrade in equipment thanks to Julian that has given the fans an opportunity to watch the street fight unfold. They begin cheering and chanting as Reece and Samantha vow to bring the fight back to the building.
Then the Ultraviolent Complex goes dark.
CUT TO: INT. THE BACKSTAGE AREA - THE ULTRAVIOLENT COMPLEX - CONTINUOUS The sudden power outage has caused the backstage area to erupt in pure and total chaos. Julian Cortez’s voice is heard, along with several other voices. The TV and Internet feeds have been cut and as far as anyone knows, Rated V is no longer being broadcast live. It's a total fucking disaster.
THE VOICE OF ARYANNA CORTEZ “Dad, calm down! Call the power company or something!”
Julian can be heard screaming obscenities in Spanish and literally no one bothers to translate it. They already know what their boss is saying. But there's nothing they can do. A light flickers on and it's from Aryanna’s cellphone.
ARYANNA CORTEZ “Ugh it's all over social that we are down. This is a fucking disaster.”
JULIAN CORTEZ “I will fucking fire whoever knocked the power out. DIOS MIO!”
Aryanna’s cellphone light follows her as she starts pacing back and forth. Her mind is going a million miles an hour. Suddenly she stops.
ARYANNA CORTEZ “It’s fine. It’s totally fine. We will just go live on Facebook. You work on getting the power restored, in the meantime just trust me.”
Julian says nothing as his daughter hurried off. Aryanna carefully makes her way to the entrance and the jeers of the rowdy crowd are deafening.
CUT TO: INT. THE RINGSIDE AREA - THE ULTRAVIOLENT COMPLEX - CONTINUOUS Aryanna Cortez looks out at the rabid crowd as she steps out from the backstage area. Hundreds of cellphones are lighting up the intimate ring area and she takes a deep breath. She quickly fires off a Tweet to the SCUV twitter account urging fans watch to turn to Facebook live. After that, she logs into the SCUV account and starts a live feed.
ARYANNA CORTEZ “Have no fear, fans. The show will go on! As you all saw, Reece Crosslin and Samantha Baltimore are on their way back The Ultraviolent Complex right as we speak! I just wanted to take a moment and walk out here, and let all of you in here know that we are doing everything we can to get the power restored. But in the meantime, I'm heading outside to get you guys footage of the streetfight. Uno momento!”
A small cheer goes up because in a social media and smartphone powered world, several fans have figured out what is going on. Aryanna exits the ring area and heads outside.
CUT TO: INT. THE PARKING LOT AREA - THE ULTRAVIOLENT COMPLEX - CONTINUOUS Reece and Samantha stand in front of the darkened Ultraviolent Complex, confusion written all over their faces. Eve and Noah, both broken and battered lay at their feet. The back entrance of the building swings open and both see Aryanna Cortez walking out, phone in hand. When she sees Noah down and out, the phone nearly falls from her hands. The last thing she expected was to see Noah in such a state. Samantha points at Aryanna and warns her to stay back. Reece picks up Noah, while Samantha picks up Eve. Both drag Eve and Noah back inside the dark building.
As soon as Reece and Samantha drag Noah and Eve back into the building, Reece is blindsided by a bigger man. This man hasn’t been seen in So-Cal previously, but the impact of the attack to Reece is enough to send the Condor flying away a good couple of feet, and down to the ground. Samantha stops dead in her tracks and looks up at this guy and a look of fear overcomes her immediately. This guy bends down, lifting Noah up easily with one arm. Noah pushes away from the bigger man and quickly starts to stomp on Reece. Samantha hasn’t taken her eyes off of this man, and this allows Eve back to her feet.
Eve rushes behind Samantha, hitting her hard with a double axehandle to the back. Samantha is pushed forward a bit and she turns around just in time to have Eve charge at her. Samantha catches Eve as she runs and the two stumble into Aryanna who stands off of the side. Aryanna nearly falls over, fumbling around with her phone. The image gets shakey, but once she catches the phone and steadies herself again, it becomes focused again. She catches the end of the attack that sees Eve throw Samantha into the wall of the Complex. The blonde slumps down to the floor and Eve snaps around, turning to Aryanna. Eve screams in her direction, “Stay the fuck out of the way!”.
Hearing Eve screaming causes Noah to turn away from attacking Reece. Noah see’s what’s going on and begins to walk toward the two, but Reece is up to his feet again and grabs Noah - turning him around and catching him with a right hand that’s flush to the jaw. Noah staggers back which gives Reece enough time to hit a superkick to Noah! Noah eats the kick, and then hits the floor hard. Eve turns and rushes to Reece - and he gives her a superkick too! During this time, Samantha has come to again, and fetched a steel chair - presumably one that Noah has used in the past against Reece. She slid the chair along the floor to Reece, who stopped it with his foot.
Reece grabs Noah’s hair, yanking him up to his feet which is where he positions him for… and successfully hits Noah with “GASLAMP DISTRICT KNOCKOUT”! He drove Noah’s head directly into the steel chair, and Noah is instantly out cold. Reece flips Noah onto his back, which is harder than it seems due to the dead weight, and covers him. Samantha turns around and frantically looks for Henry Washington -- who walks back into the Complex with the stripper from before on his arm. Samantha grabs Washington by the shirt collar and moves him to where Reece covers Noah. Washington reluctantly drops into position and begins the longest count in the world..
One…………… ………………Two …………………… ………………Three!
WINNER: Reece Crosslin
CO-MAIN EVENT: Aliyah Turner (c) Vs. Rowan Blackwood -- Inferno Match for the Trans-Pacific Championship. The power is still out at the Ultraviolent Complex but the fans inside have turned to their phones. The lights cast an eerie glow across the intimate arena and Aryanna walks around the ring, capturing it all on Facebook Live. Lindsay Pierce and Christian Nobles have joined her, using SnapChat and Instagram respectively to send photos and videos. A few seconds later several members of the St. Ignatious Preparatory Academy middle school marching band emerge. Even though there's no power, these tweens are powering on. Slowly, they begin playing a lovely instrumental rendition of “Let Me Blow Ya Mind” by Eve and Gwen Stefani. The crowd feels it and sing the words which is what brings the heart of So-Cal out, Aliyah Turner.
She pauses in front of Aryanna Cortez and poses with her Trans-Pacific Championship.
ALIYAH TURNER "Wrestling match, inferno match, whatever. Tonight, this title is coming home with me or I will die trying to defend it."
VOICE (from behind Aliyah) “That can easily be arranged.”
Zander Blackwood clubs Aliyah in the back and tosses her into the steel ring steps. Aliyah hits the steps with a sickening thud and the fans aren't really happy about that. The former Trans-Pacific Champion and King of California finalist picks up the belt, slings it over his shoulder, and looks towards the entrance to the ring.
There's no theme music that can play, but one by one a dozen or so cloaked druid types begin making their way towards the ring. Each of them are carrying lit torches. The crackling orange fire is an incredible sight for the fans and it's so silent inside the building. No one really knows what to say. They surround the ring and apparently they're going to stay there. It may not be a typical inferno match, but it's going to resemble one.
Standing at the entrance flanked by two more druids is Rowan Blackwood. Her red hair is flowing over her shoulders and she's dressed in a black cloak. It's like totally vintage Undertaker at any Wrestlemania ever, it's really unexpected. Rowan slowly removes her cloak and makes her way down to the ring.
Beside the ring steps, Aliyah is stirring. We all know she's not going to be kept down thanks to a lame sneak attack by the bearded beauty. When she sees that the ring is surrounded by fire she takes a deep breath. “Straight Fire” has never meant more. As she stands up, her eyes meet Rowan’s. The two bitter rivals stare one another down and it's Aliyah who motions for Rowan to get in the ring. Rowan decides to oblige. Aliyah slips in after Rowan and they meet in the center of the ring. Both women are standing nose to nose, this showdown finally happening. Both of them are intense, well trained, and just damn good at what they do. The bell rings but no one is really paying attention.
Aliyah strikes first by kicking Rowan in the stomach. She's just been waiting for this opportunity for awhile now. With Rowan doubled over, Aliyah uses the ropes for momentum and takes Rowan down with a vicious scissors kick. Quickly, she mounts Rowan and begins raining blow after blow to Rowan's face. Rowan covers up and tries to defend herself, but Aliyah wraps her hands around Rowan's threat and begins choking her. Since there are no rules in an inferno match per say, this is perfectly legal. Before Rowan is choked out, Aliyah picks the arsonist up by the neck and tosses her into the corner of the ring. Aliyah puts the boots to Rowan and stomps her down into the corner until she's in a seated position. Backing up, Aliyah flies across the ring and dropkicks Rowan in the face.
Zander can't deal with it. He pulls Rowan out of the ring.
Aliyah shakes her head on disgust. She cleverly waits until Zander has coached Rowan a bit and helped her to her feet. Aliyah takes a chance by scrambling to the top rope. Without hesitating she moonsaults off the top rope and lands on Zowan! All three are down, surrounded by the fire carrying druids and the fans in the crowd to insane.
Zander is the first of the three to stir and once he does, he reaches for Aliyah. The big man brings himself and the Knoxville native backup to a vertical base but Aliyah is obviously ready for whatever is going to happen to her. She nails Zander with a forearm shot to the face but he uses his brute strength to send Aliyah flying into the barricades. Aliyah's lower back hits the steel hard and she drops down to her knees.
Rowan has grabbed a torch from one of her minions and looks to slam it into Aliyah's face. Aliyah is able to duck the shot, lands a stiff right to Rowan’s jaw, and clotheslines her down to the ground. The torch has escaped Rowan’s hand, which enables her to place her hands on the ground and push herself up. Aliyah fires a kick to the outside of Rowan’s right leg. The smack of her boot off of the leg echoes out. Rowan reels back and fires off a forearm that connects with the side of Aliyah’s head, and thus it begins. The two begin to trade strikes, back and forth.
Aliyah grabs Rowan’s red hair and gives her a quick headbutt that pauses Rowan’s offensive flurry. Rowan staggers back and that is when Aliyah drives her back first into the ring apron. Rowan lets out a scream after the impact. Aliyah takes a couple of steps back before charging at Rowan again, jumping just in front of her - looking to hit some sort of move to Rowan, but Rowan manages to move out of the way and Aliyah tangles herself up in the ropes, before falling onto the outside of the apron. Rowan turns to Aliyah and pushes her into the ring before climbing in herself.
Rowan stalks Aliyah, waiting until she’s up to a knee before charging and hitting an enzuiguri after stepping up off of Aliyah’s knee. Rowan is quickly up to her feet, hits the ropes and comes back looking for a running senton - but Aliyah brings up her knees directly to Rowan’s back. Both fighters return to their feet and Rowan attempts a clothesline - which Aliyah ducks and ends up wrapping her arms around Rowan’s waist and hits a beautiful German Suplex!
Suplex city, bitch.
Rowan groans and again rolls to the outside of the ring. Zander climbs into the ring, looking to end this match for his wife. He has a chair in his hands. Without even hesitating, Zander slams the chair into the back to Aliyah's skull. She crumbles to the mat and Zander tosses the chair down. He picks her up and throws her up in the torture rack. Zander no longer gives a flying fuck. He did have a stressful week after all. All he wants to do is just break this bitch in half for his beloved Rowan.
The crowd starts buzzing as someone begins shoving their way through the crowd and towards the ring. This male jumps the barricades and slips into the ring. Thanks to the fiery glow that is lighting up the building, it's plain to see that the man who has involved himself in this match is Aliyah’s boyfriend and Indy wrestler, “Lethal” Kevin Richards!!!
(Introducing Chris “Cheeseburger NOM NOM” Hero as Richards. Plz don't hate me Doug.)
Richards dropkicks Zander in his bad knee and Zander drops to the mat. Kevin checks on Aliyah but it's Rowan who is the one who that has gotten her bearings together. She sees that Zander is in peril and that Richards is leveling him with brutal elbow shots. Something inside her snaps but at the same time, Zander’s soothing voice comes to her. Remaining focused and calm, Rowan reaches under the ring and pulls out a table. Along with that table came a thing of lighter fluid. Grabbing a torch from her Druid, Rowan sets about lighting that damn table on fire. Then and only then, does she climb back onto ring and up to the top rope. Rowan launches herself off with ease and takes Kevin Richards out with a flying headscissors from the top! This time, she is the one checking on Zander.
Aliyah is using the ropes to help herself up at the moment. The minute she gets back to her feet, the lights inside the building cut back on. The fans erupt and as soon as they do, fire shoots out of the ring posts as well. The ring is now surrounded by fire trapping all four competitors inside of it. Rowan and Aliyah look at one another. Rowan looks the happiest she's ever been in So-Cal Ultraviolent and Aliyah seems focused. The two lock up again and this time it's not such a pretty exchange of holds.
Rowan wants to end this match and takes Aliyah across the face with her nails. Aliyah stumbles back and Rowan begins beating the hell out of her for really the first time in the match. Jerking Aliyah up by her hair, Rowan looks to blind her rival with a fireball. Richards is able to push Aliyah out of the way and drop down to avoid it himself. Zander lumbers back to his feet and together, the four people inside the fiery ring begin to brawl.
Richards is perhaps the only man on the roster that can go toe-to-toe with Zander in terms of size and striking ability. Richards changes up the attacks from straight punches, adding in a kick followed by a discus elbow that drops Zander. Aliyah and Rowan mirrored Richards and Zander, exchanging strikes until Aliyah catches Rowan slipping with a roundhouse kick to the head. Aliyah and Richards standing tall gets the crowd going in the Complex. They each grab a handful of their opponents hair and drag them up to their feet. However, Zander catches Richards with a jawbreaker and Rowan gets a thumb to Aliyah’s eye.
Richards doubles over and Aliyah turns away, holding her eye. Zander positions Richards’ head between his legs and powers him up for a powerbomb. Rowan positions herself - back to the table, grabbing ahold of Aliyah in an Exploder Suplex fashion. And, in a show of true synchronicity, they both execute their moves at the same time - sending both Richards AND Aliyah into the flaming table!
The crowd erupts into “HO-LY SHIT” chants. Richards and Aliyah both roll away out of the flaming mess, but Aliyah’s attire is caught on fire -- and the referee has no choice but to call for the bell, ending the match.WINNER AND NEW TRANS-PACIFIC CHAMPION: Rowan Blackwood
