Live From Los Angeles, California
Staples Center
'Hit me like a man - The Pretty Reckless' hits the speakers and immediately a chorus of boos rises up, as Ana Valentine-Jones steps out onto the stage, dressed in a skin tight black dress, mesh cutaway to show off her curves, her long blonde hair pulled back into a ponytail that sways as she moves. She stands at the top of the ramp and smirks slightly, looking out at the booing crowd she licks her lips slowly, shaking her head slightly before she begins to make her way down the ramp. She climbs the steps slowly and waves at one of the employees to hold the ropes for her with an inpatient eyeroll before stepping into the ring. As she raises the mic to her lips, her music dies down and slowly, the boos do to.
Bill RICHARDSON: Looks like tonight we're going to start off the show with our Vice president of Talent Relations. This has to be regarding the big announcement that has been teased all week along on our social media account..
Ana Valentine-JONES: If you're all quite finished...
Terrell HANLEY: Shhh, Quite Bill. Let the woman speak..
Ana sneers at the crowd as they begin to boo again, she moves the mic away from her mouth and waits...
Ana Valentine-JONES: Unless you've been living under a rock - then you have heard the rumors... You have seen the hype... Change is coming to Honor Wrestling... And that change, starts with me; and what I am bringing to....
Ana holds up a finger, as though stopping herself talking... The crowd begins to boo again and Ana pulls a face, turning up her nose as though she is offended by the outburst...
Ana Valentine-JONES: You will all show me some respect!
The boos get louder now and Ana paces the ring for a moment before she pauses and turns to the ropes leaning over the top rope with a smirk...
Ana Valentine-JONES: You want to know? You really... Really want to know...?
She waits, tilting her head to the side as the boos are now mixed with a few Yes answers and some unflattering insults... Ana laughs slightly and pulls away from the ropes walking back to the middle of the ring.
Ana Valentine-JONES: Well, if you REALLY want to know.... You'll tune into Mayhem this Saturday night to find out!
As the crowd begin to boo again, Ana drops the mic to the canvas, exiting the ring as her music hits.
Bill RICHARDSON: And we still don't know anything. It looks like she has been teasing us all along and now we must wait even longer to find out what this announcement is. This better be worth it for our fans..
Terrell HANLEY: It's pure genius, it makes people talk about Honor Wrestling and it will make them tune into our Saturday show to find out just what is going on..

The camera pans over the assembled crowd in the arena. The fans are holding up various signs and wearing a huge assortment of shirts, each supporting various members of the promotion. The shot slows to a stop on two young ladies sat in the front row. A graphic pops up naming them as Katie Anderson and Melissa Reeves.
Bill RICHARDSON: And there we have two of the newest signings here in Honor Wrestling, Katie Anderson and Melissa Reeves!
Brittany MUELLER: Two young ladies who we can probably all agree are exciting signings, two talented ladies with a very bright future ahead of themselves!
Terrell HANLEY: Well, I-
Bill RICHARDSON: I think we can all agree on that, Brittany! And it's nice to see that they've come out to support their new company, even though they're not due to compete here tonight.
The pair both wave to the camera, and Katie hands back a signed cap to a young boy sat behind her.
Terrell HANLEY: Yes, but-
Brittany MUELLER: I totally agree with you there, Bill. I, for one, am eagerly looking toward to their respective in-ring debuts!
Melissa blows a kiss to the camera and then pokes her tongue out as the shot ends.

Daisie DAUGHTRY: Coming to at this time, from Newcastle, England she is England's Most Glamorous...ALEXIS TEEEEEEEEERRY!!
Smoke fills the stage area as the lights dim. A blue hue haunts the arena. Sporting her ring jacket, the hood covering most of her face besides the smirk planted on her lips, Alexis Terry makes her way to the ring. She enters, removes the hood and jacket, and throws one finger into the air as most of the fans boo.
Daisie DAUGHTRY: And her opponent from St. Paul, Minnesota, TIFFANY PRAAAAADA!!

Prada walks across the ring immediately, and slaps Terry across the face. Terry pushes Prada away, rubbing her jaw and glaring at her opponent. The two women begin to exchange words, and Prada kicks Terry in the gut, before hitting a high dropkick and rolling into a cover.
One...Kickout!
Bill RICHARDSON: No surprise there...what was Prada thinking? Nobody has been finished by a dropkick since the eighties for God's sake.
Terrell HANLEY: But Terry had to expend energy just to kick out, Bill..it's called strategy.
Prada picks Terry up and throws her into the corner, throwing left and right hands. Terry tries to cover up, but enough shots land that she ends up seated in the corner under a barrage of stomps from Prada. She backs off, and takes a running start at Terry, hitting another dropkick on the legend.
Brittany MUELLER: Prada is coming out in a big way here, Bill...I don't think Alexis was really prepared for this at all.
Bill RICHARDSON: But she's a legend in this business, I would not count her out just yet.
Brittany MUELLLER: I wouldn't dream of it.
Prada lifts Terry up out of the corner, and hits her with a quick snap suplex, floating over immediately after to make the pin attempt.
One...
Two...Kickout!
Prada looks at the referee, and says some choice words, before picking her up again. Prada looks to hit another suplex, but Terry floats over and rolls Prada up into a quick school-boy pin.
One...
Two...Kickout!
Terrell HANLEY: Nice reversal
Bill RICHARDSON: I told you two, they don't just hand out contracts to just anyone..
Both women rush to their feet, but Prada is slightly faster, dropping Terry with a running clothesline. Prada bounces off the ropes, and leaps into the air, dropping a knee across Terry's chest, causing her to roll around on the mat in agony. Prada glances around at the crowd, motioning that she's going to finish Terry off. Prada lifts Terry off the canvas, but Terry suddenly comes to life, pushing Prada away.
Bill RICHARDSON: Alexis is doing anything and everything to just survive here.
Brittany MUELLER: She's just trying to buy herself some time to regroup
Prada shakes her head, and runs at Terry, who reverses at the last second to hit Prada with a high-impact, high powered Power slam. Terry can't hold on for the pin though, and so both women slowly pull themselves up using the ring ropes. Prada again gets to her feet first, and grabs Terry from behind. Terry reacts immediately, using her own head to knock Prada down. Terry quickly uses the ropes to gain momentum, and drops a heavy elbow on Prada, hooking the near leg for the pin attempt.
One...
Two...
Th---Kickout!
Brittany MUELLER: I thought Alexis had it there.
Terry lifts Prada up, and slams her down to the canvas again. She leans close, and says something to Prada, before slapping her across the face. Prada flips Terry over, and locks in a sleeper hold, twisting and contorting Terry's neck as the referee moves into position to ask Terry if she wants to give up.
Terrell HANLEY: No way she taps here..
Bill RICHARDSON: I highly doubt it myself..
On que, it seems, Terry begins struggling to her feet, throwing elbows to Prada's midsection to try and break away from the submission. When she does, Prada runs off the ropes, and straight back at Terry, who recovers in time as they both give each other a double clothesline to the mat.
Brittany MUELLER: Ouch!
A few seconds pass as Terry crawls into the cover, hooking Prada's leg with as much effort as she can muster.
One!
Two!
Three!---NO!!
Terrell HANLEY: How the hell did she kick out...
Terry jumps to her feet, immediately arguing with the referee, who motions that Prada got her shoulder off the canvas. Terry shakes her head, backing the referee into a corner. The ref points to his chest, and tells Terry to back off. The wrestling legend turns her attention back to Prada, who hops to her feet and hits a spinning heel kick on Terry. Both women drop to the canvas, motionless. The ref begins a ten count.
One...
Two...
Three...
Brittany MUELLER: I don't think either woman is going to get up..
Bill RICHARDSON: If that's the case this match will be a shame...
Four...
Five...
Six...
Terry slowly begins to stir and pull herself up with the ring ropes. Prada is still motionless as Terry is able to pull herself up into the corner, breaking the ten count. Terry slowly climbs to the top of the turnbuckle as Prada begins to stir. She sees Terry on the top rope, and charges, hoping to the second rope and punching Terry in the back of the head. Both women teeter precariously on the turnbuckle, trying to gain the edge on their opponent.
Bill RICHARDSON: These two are in dangerous territory here. One misstep, and this could all be over.
Terrell HANLEY: All or nothing, Bill...these two want to win by an means necessary.
Prada hooks Terry into a front face lock, and motions to the crowd that Terry is done. She then drops down backwards, hitting a DDT off the top rope.
Brittany MUELLER: That looked painful!
Prada hooks the near leg, and smirks as the referee drops to the canvas.
One!
Two!
Three!
Bill RICHARDSON: That's it!
Daisie DAUGHTRY: Here is your winner...TIFFANY PRADA!

As ShowDown continued to roll on the camera focused backstage as we find the entire Sons of Chaos standing outside the locker room of Zack Goldman, every member except - Kevin Hunter who was conspicuous by his absence as Allison Knight stood in front of the group, The Honor Nation let out a roar of cheers. Renee Walker walked into the camera view.
Renee WALKER: Excuse me, Allison… we’ve gotten word that Kevin Hunter is taking Chris Hunter’s position in the championship tournament here tonight, any news to enlighten us.
Knight looked at Walker with a smirk as the office door to Zack Goldman’s office swung open, out steps Kevin Hunter who looked at each member of the group with a stern angry look on his face as Renee Walker looked back and forth from the Sons to Kevin Hunter, before looking at them with an arrogant smile.
Kevin HUNTER: It took awhile, but he agreed to our terms.
The entire group let out a loud cheer as Kevin Hunter chuckled.
Renee WALKER: Excuse me, Mr. Hunter… what type of an agreement?
Kevin Hunter slowly turned his head towards Renee Walker with an arrogant, methodical look on his face.
Kevin HUNTER: The details are still a bit hazy for ya sweetheart… but the fact is the only thing you, the Honor Nation and the rest of these superstars in the back… but I’ll tell you what, Renee, I’ll enlighten you just a bit… Chris Hunter realizes, he knows that he is the heir to the throne, which means he’s the King when I decide to hang the boots up… as for now Chris knows his place, these idiots walking the Honor halls can say what they want about my bro… the fact of the matter is this, he’s a better person than anyone I know… including the superstars in Honor Wrestling, Dexter Anthony might just want to be ready to have his dreams shattered… his body broken, because the Anarchy will rise with chaos!
Renee WALKER: But what did you say for Zack Goldman to replace you with Chris Hunter in the Honor Championship tournament, that’s what the world wants to know?
Kevin Hunter chuckled.
Kevin HUNTER: What can I say, he didn’t want Anarchy in his office… so he made a little deal with the Devil if you know what I’m talking about, the only thing that matters here tonight… is me beating Dexter Anthony, getting one step closer to claiming what is mine… one step closer to my god given destiny, one step closer to Chaos and Anarchy... as Honor Champion when Dexter Anthony’s nightmare comes back to haunt him in the middle of that ring… he will Fear the Reaper... Welcome to the Beginning of the END!
Turning his head towards the Renee Walker, he stepped off the camera, the entire Sons of Chaos followed him off the view, leaving Renee Walker alone looking into the camera as the scene faded.

The bell sounds and Storm goes right to work on Earl backing him up with rights and lefts like the south paw boxer knows how to do. He hits Earl square in the jaw and then kicks him in the gut followed by a DDT. The crowd cheers for Storm. Storm than begins stomping away at Earl and he doesn’t let Earl even catch his breath.
Bill RICHARDSON: This is starting to turn one sided Mood.
Just then Earl gets to his feet and begins firing away at Storm swinging him against the ropes. Storm goes to hit a clothesline on Earl but Earl ducks out of the way and hits Storm with a flying forearm smash and then another and another but this time Storm catches him in mid-air and hits a sit out piledriver on Earl bouncing his neck off the canvas. Earl appears to have sprained his neck and is holding it in pain stumbling around the ring.
Bill RICHARDSON: That didn’t look good I think he’s seriously hurt.
Brittany MUELLER: His neck tweaked really hard there.
Storm lifts Earl up by his hair and hits a nice snap suplex on him. Storm goes for the cover.

Storm picks Lockyer up by his hair as Earl appears to be half out of it since landing on his neck. He lifts him onto his shoulders to set him up for Dystopia. Storm looks into the crowd as they cher before tossing Earl up and giving him a high knee to the face. Earl falling flat onto his back appearing to be knocked out by the move.

Bill Richardson: We're being informed there is some kind of incident happening backstage, our cameras are on scene now...
Backstage the cameras show Ana-Valentine-Jones sitting on the floor backstage, leaning against the wall and cradling her head, holding the back of it as two medics check her over, as one of the medics touches her head she winces dramatically, before mumbling something about her shoulder. Meanwhile Alex Jones is being held back by several members of the security team, as he tries to jump through them pushing against them as they almost pin him completely to the wall...
Alex JONES: I'll kill you both! Let me go... I'm going to KILL them!
As the camera pans out we see the Hunter Brothers, who appear to be laughing at Alex being restrained, Kevin takes a step forward closer to Alex, who struggles harder against the security personnel as Kevin leans in...
Kevin HUNTER: Gabriel Griffin sends his regards...
Kevin then turns and taps his brother on the chest, nodding his head to the side, the Sons of Chaos turn and walk off, still laughing as Alex makes one last attempt to charge at them, before holding his hands up and backing up to the wall....
Alex JONES: Ok... Ok... Let me check on my wife... Get off me!
He pulls his arm away from one of the staff members as Ana looks up and waves a hand asking that they let him through, Alex takes a knee beside her, touching her cheek gently as he sighs, shaking his head...
Alex JONES: What happened?
Ana Valentine-JONES: I don't know... They came out of nowhere and all I remember is my head hitting the wall and then waking up on the floor with all of ... This... Going on...
Ana winces and slaps the hand of one of the medics as he tries to touch her shoulder...
Ana Valentine-JONES: Get off me you IDIOT!
Alex stands up and extends his hand down to Ana, who uses it to pull herself up, making small but dramatic pained noises as she does so...
Alex JONES: Griffin AND Those dicks are going to pay...
Ana Valentine-JONES: I'll deal with it... Just go get ready for your match...
Alex hesitates and then nods, walking off down the hall, Ana leans back against the wall with a small smirk on her face before the camera cuts back to ringside.

The cameras cut to the backstage area, as Kevin McDonald is standing back there with The first Diamond Champion Serenity Wilson. Her Diamond Title is on her shoulder, as she is smiling, looking at Kevin. She wasn't scheduled to be on the show, but was there to support Gabriel Griffin.
Kevin MCDONALD: Hello everyone I'm Kevin Mcdonald and I am standing here with special guest, the Diamond Champion, Serenity Wilson. Hello Serenity how are you doing today?
Serenity WILSON: I'm great actually. I'm here to enjoy the show, and to see Gabriel Griffin win tonight, and continue on in the tournament.
Kevin MCDONALD: You are confident about Gabriel moving on. Do you think Gabriel will have any trouble getting through Kevin Jones?
Serenity would look at Kevin as she smirks lightly, while shaking her head.
Serenity WILSON: Honestly it will be a good match. They both have talent, have strengths, but I will continue to stand by, and support Gabriel. I would be a terrible girlfriend really if I didn't.
Kevin MCDONALD: Thats good that you support him. How does it feel though to be the First, and only Champion in Honor?
Serenity looks at her title, as she thinks for a few minutes, before she looks back at Kevin.
Serenity WILSON: It feels great. I'm glad I won it, compared to the other two, I was the best one. Really it's an Honor even that I am the first champion. I plan on taking on all comers, and showing why I am the best one.
Kevin MCDONALD: On the First ever Mayhem, you will be defending your title against Dahlia. What are your thoughts on it?
Serenity WILSON: Really is this a joke? Dahlia means nothing, she's lucky she is even getting another shot. I don't care if shes big, if shes overweight. Like they all say, the bigger they are, the harder they will fall. I plan causing her to fall, and realize she won't hurt me, won't destroy me. She will realize this is my title.
After saying that, she pats her title, as she shakes her head. She knew she had the win on mayhem.
Kevin MCDONALD: You sure are confident. Do you think that will hurt you?
Serenity WILSON: No it won't. More so not against Dahlia. Think it will, then just watch the First ever Mayhem, and you will soon see I am right. Now if you will excuse me, I need to go see Gabriel before his match.
Serenity walks away, leaving Kevin standing there alone, as he looks at the camera. The camera fades out.
Kevin MCDONALD: Hello everyone I'm Kevin Mcdonald and I am standing here with special guest, the Diamond Champion, Serenity Wilson. Hello Serenity how are you doing today?
Serenity WILSON: I'm great actually. I'm here to enjoy the show, and to see Gabriel Griffin win tonight, and continue on in the tournament.
Kevin MCDONALD: You are confident about Gabriel moving on. Do you think Gabriel will have any trouble getting through Kevin Jones?

Serenity WILSON: Honestly it will be a good match. They both have talent, have strengths, but I will continue to stand by, and support Gabriel. I would be a terrible girlfriend really if I didn't.
Kevin MCDONALD: Thats good that you support him. How does it feel though to be the First, and only Champion in Honor?
Serenity looks at her title, as she thinks for a few minutes, before she looks back at Kevin.
Serenity WILSON: It feels great. I'm glad I won it, compared to the other two, I was the best one. Really it's an Honor even that I am the first champion. I plan on taking on all comers, and showing why I am the best one.
Kevin MCDONALD: On the First ever Mayhem, you will be defending your title against Dahlia. What are your thoughts on it?
Serenity WILSON: Really is this a joke? Dahlia means nothing, she's lucky she is even getting another shot. I don't care if shes big, if shes overweight. Like they all say, the bigger they are, the harder they will fall. I plan causing her to fall, and realize she won't hurt me, won't destroy me. She will realize this is my title.
After saying that, she pats her title, as she shakes her head. She knew she had the win on mayhem.
Kevin MCDONALD: You sure are confident. Do you think that will hurt you?
Serenity WILSON: No it won't. More so not against Dahlia. Think it will, then just watch the First ever Mayhem, and you will soon see I am right. Now if you will excuse me, I need to go see Gabriel before his match.
Serenity walks away, leaving Kevin standing there alone, as he looks at the camera. The camera fades out.

Honor Wrestling’s feed cuts backstage to the wrestlers entrance of the arena. Security personnel steps aside as the door swings open and in walks FRANKIE MORRISON. He pulls on the lower ends of the lapels to his custom sport coat and buttons up before shaking hands with the security guard. Morrison begins to stroll through the corridors as the live Los Angeles crowd begins to buzz. Morrison slowly comes to a stop as he’s met by Renee Walker.
Renee WALKER: Ladies and Gentlemen, Frankie Morrison!
Morrison humbly nods his head and holds his hand up towards the camera.
Renee WALKER: Probably the last person anyone expected to see here tonight. I wouldn’t be doing my job justice if I didn’t ask why.
Morrison smirked before offering up an explanation for his appearance.
Frankie MORRISON: I’m here to support my client’s decision to call Honor Wrestling home.
The live audience erupts and Renee Walker stares with her mouth agape.
Renee WALKER: Are you telling me that Chris Madison is signing a contract with Honor Wrestling?
Frankie MORRISON: No, never said anything about Chris.
Behind the interviewer a person appeared, leaving a shadow on the floor. When turning around she was greeted by the flashing smile of ELENA DEDRACA.
Elena DEDRACA: Excuse me bubbles… .
She walked past the girl wrapping her arms tightly around Morrison's body. Hugging him in a tight embrace. If fans in the arena would erupt in cheers again, watching the scene.
Elena DEDRACA: I almost worried you couldn't make it.
Frankie MORRISON: Told you I’d be here; never like to disappoint my clients.
Renee Walker was speechless, starring as Frankie Morrison and Elena DeDraca interacted with one another.
Renee WALKER: Honestly I had no idea. When did the two of you begin this working relationship?
Elena focused her dark eyes on the female, remaining rather relaxed.
Elena DEDRACA: You don't mind if I answer that one, right? A little after Honor Wrestling went on air for the first time. A friend of mine suggested Mister Morrison as working partner. Seeing how successful he has been in this business. Long story cut short, I saw a chance and took it.
She was once more looking at Frankie giving him that wide smile. It was easy viewable to see the confusion still present on the interviewer's face.
Renee WALKER: Aren't you a rather busy man Frankie? Considering the success of your client Chris Madison?
Frankie MORRISON: If I couldn't handle the workload I wouldn't have taken on the new client. Right now we’re working on finding Madison a new permanent home. But I'm also going to make sure that Elena DeDraca gets every opportunity that she deserves!
Elena can't hold in a small chuckle noise. She remains standing next to Morrison, turning her back towards the interviewer. Starting to ignore the still surprised Renee Walker.
Elena DEDRACA: May we walk a few steps?
Morrison smirked and turned towards Renee Walker shooting her a wink.
Frankie MORRISON: Renee if you’ll excuse us, my client has a Ladie’s Championship tournament match to prepare for.
Morrison turns his back to Renee Walker and begins slowly walking side by side with Elena DeDraca.
Renee WALKER: Ladies and Gentlemen, Frankie Morrison!
Morrison humbly nods his head and holds his hand up towards the camera.
Renee WALKER: Probably the last person anyone expected to see here tonight. I wouldn’t be doing my job justice if I didn’t ask why.

As the crowd continues to cheer for the upcoming match, "How2Kill" by Death Valley High's xylophonic beginning plays over the arena's speaker system, followed by strong guitar rifts. To a loud, boisterous cheer as he appears, Finn Whelan walks out from under the curtain onto the stage, a grin sliding on his face from the crowd's reaction. He takes a couple steps forward, just before the ramp, and looks to both out to tonight's Honor Wrestling attendees on the left, and then to the right. He then pushes his fist to the sky, still grinning as he does so.
Do you remember when?
Remember closets and fear
Dreaming up images and scary ideas
Did you invent your own stories?
Just to scare, scare yourself
Mommy and Daddy were a room away
At this point, he's walked-slashed-jogged down the ramp, high-fiving a couple of fans and approaches the ring. Without stopping, he slides in, rising to his knees and pausing for a moment, showboating and looking arrogant as ever. He jumps to his feet and crosses the ring to the bottom right turnbuckle, climbing to the second rope.
We're learning
We're learning how
We're turn if we learn how to kill
Kill at will your enemies
The ones who live behind shadows
Feeding off all your fears
With a couple of seconds just spent gazing at the crowd, he rears back his head and lets out a scream, one that several attendees in the audience join along with him. He jumps back down to the ring floor, crosses diagonally and repeats. Then, as his music fades out, he lands, heading to the corner and leaning back on it, awaiting for the bell to ring.

Daisie DAUGHTRY: To my left, hailing from Seattle Washington, he is known around the world as The Seattle Saint...FINN WHEEEELAN!
"Run" strikes up over the sound system as Tucker Bryant walks out onto the stage. The lights are blinking as he throws one hand into the air. He puts his fingers in W while moving down the ramp. He greets a few fans while bobbing head to the music. He chuckles a little before sliding into the ring. He hops back up to his feet, jumps up onto the nearest turnbuckle and poses while pumping the crowd up.
Daisie DAUGHTRY: And his opponent to my right hailing from Iowa City, Iowa TUCKER BRYYYYYYANT!!
The bell rings and Finn rushes at Tucker who is ready for him and connects with a huge clothesline, sending Finn head over heels onto the mat. Tucker immediatly grabs Finn and Irish Whips him into the ropes before lowering his head and flipping Finn with a high Back Body Drop. He gets up aand runs into the ropes and drops an elbow on the challenger's chest. Tucker is up quickly and hits another elbow drop before pulling Finn to his feet.
Tucker kicks Finn in the midsection, doubling him over and then catches him in a front face lock before lifting him up for a long stalling suplex. The two men crash hard into the mat and Tucker covers Finn for a pin fall..

Brittany MUELLER: I find it actually kinda smart..
Tucker kicks out and is quick to get to his knees only to be hit by a low dropkick to the face from Finn. Finn jumps up and hits a standing leg drop on his fallen opponent. He quickly locks a head scissors around Tucker's head and squeezes.
Bill RICHARDSON: Nice head scissors by Whelan..
Whelan keeps the hold locked on as Tucker squirms himself around until he is able to push himself out of the hold and onto his feet. He immediatly dives on top of Finn and the two men roll around the ring, exchanging punches in an all out brawl as the ref tries to get a hold on the match. They roll out of the ring with Finn landing on top of Tucker who seems to be winded from the impact. Finn slowly gets to his feet and begins to stomp on Tucker before pulling him to his feet and driving him back first into the barricade. Finn rolls Tucker back into the ring, breaking the ref's count before climbing up and up onto the top rope.
Finn stands tall on the top of the ropes and waits for Tucker to get to his feet and turn to face him. As Tucker turns to face him, he jumps off the rope and hits a devastating hurricanrana, but Tucker holds onto him and tries for a power bomb however Finn wiggles free and kicks Tucker into the stomach causing him to double over...
Bill RICHARDSON: Revelation 6:4!!
Finn nails Revelation 6:4 in the middle of the ring and hooks the leg as the referee slides into position to make the pinfall.

After the latest match had concluded on Showdown, the fans direct their attention up towards the titantron where they see a man whom they were unfamiliar with. That man was none other than one of the newest wrestlers to Honor Wrestling, Steven Gray. He didn’t garner much of a reaction since the fans didn’t know anything about him, this didn’t faze him one bit however. He had a noticeable grin on his face as he begins to speak in an upbeat tone.
Steven GRAY: I’m confident that no one in this arena knows who I am so allow me to introduce myself. I’m Steven Gray. A wrestler here on Honor Wrestling that is looking to take the company by storm. Now it may sound as if I’m putting an incredible amount of pressure on myself seeing as how I haven’t even made my debut yet. However I’ve been in a ton of precarious positions before. So wrestling isn’t my definition of pressure. I was born to compete in this ring, wrestling is in my blood.
The arena erupts in sheer boos now, seeing that this new guy had a pretty pompous attitude.
Steven GRAY: Go ahead! Boo away! It doesn’t bother me in the least. This isn’t my first rodeo in the wrestling industry, I’ve had my fair share of highs and lows. Way more highs than lows. I will use my past experiences to my advantage so get used to seeing this face a whole lot on your television screens because I’m here to stay and you can be damn sure that I will be in possession of championship gold sooner rather than later.
With the being said, the scene fades to black as Showdown rolls along.
Bill RICHARDSON: Steven Gray has just made his debut here in Honor Wrestling, there was rumored to be some debuts this evening. Honor Wrestling is THE place to be clearly folks!
Brittany MUELLER: You're right who knows who may end up showing up next..anything is possible...

Brittany MUELLER: You're right who knows who may end up showing up next..anything is possible...
The lights go down in the arena, and the hard guitar opening of Superchick's "Hey Hey" begins to filter through the sound system.
Some people you can never please
You might as well just let them be
They mock everything not their own
From their imaginary throne
(whispered)
But I won't bow down
Even if the whole world
Thinks I'm crazy
Samantha Tolson then steps out onto the entryway, throwing a couple of gentle punches at the air, then a kick or two before raising her arms to the cheering crowd.
So hey hey
This song is for us
So put your hands in the air
If you're crazy like us
Hey hey
Hey hey
That's freedom you hear
Comin' right to your ear
That's the sound from our bus
Hey hey
Samantha slaps fives with those along the aisle, walking slowly toward the ring, then around it, continuing to greet the fans.
Hey!
Tolson pumps her right hand, balled into a fist, into the air in time with the chant.
Hey!
And does it a second time on the second chant.
Why try to be like someone else
When you can only be yourself
No one can sing the song you do
Be true be legendary you
So I won't sell out
Even if the whole world
Thinks I'm crazy
Samantha finally makes her way to ringside, leaping from a flat-footed stance on the floor straight onto the apron, then slingshots herself into the ring as the announcer makes his announcement.
Daisie DAUGHTRY: Coming to the ring/And her opponent….she is from Jefferson City, Missouri….the first female graduate of Camp Nightfall...standing five feet six inches tall and weighing in this morning at one-hundred fifty-eight pounds….she is….”NO GIMMICKS NEEDED” SAMANTHA TOLSON!!!
So hey hey
This song is for us
So put your hands in the air
If you're crazy like us
Hey hey
Hey hey
That's freedom you hear
Comin' right to your ear
That's the sound from our bus
Hey hey
The rock anthem begins to fade out as Samantha stretches on the ropes, awaiting the bell.
Bill RICHARDSON: Did that feel a little long to you guys?
Brittney MUELLER: A little yeah...but this match should be awesome...
Terrell HANLEY: Tolson is a great performer and wrestler but Quinn Rivers is an amazing young talent...
Mayhem by Halestorm hits the pa system, as Quinn walks out from the back. She stops at the top of the ramp, as she looks out to the crowd, as she smirks. She walks down to the ring, as she slides under the ropes. She pops up, as she heads for her corner as she waits for match to start.
Terrell HANLEY: They both look ready to go...
Bill RICHARDSON: This should be great....
The bell rings and they lock up, Tolson pulls Rivers into a side headlock, Rivers backs into the ropes and shoves Tolson off, Tolson comes back and hits a shoulder block. Rivers rolls over as Tolson hits the ropes and leaps over her, Rivers then pops up and goes to leapfrog Tolson who catches Rivers in mid air and slams her down. Tolson then pulls rivers up, hits a snap suplex, rolls her hips grabbing Rivers wrist twisting up and around into a belly to back suplex slamming Rivers down again. Tolson pins 1...2...Rivers kicks out.
Tolson measures Rivers up as she starts to pull herself up. Tolson goes for a firemans carry takedown, Rivers punches off the ground and over Tolson's back to flip to her feet, Tolson pops up from her knee and Rivers leaps up hitting a hurricanrana flipping Tolson across the ring, she pops up and grabs Tolson by the head running up the ropes hitting a tornado ddt spiking Tolson straight down.
Bill RICHARDSON: Wow what a move by Rivers!
Terrell HANLEY: She is quicker than Tolson but Tolson seems stronger...
Bill RICHARDSON: Tolson is also way more experienced...
Rivers pulls Tolson up, snap mares her down and steps forward with a kick to the back of Tolson's head that rattles through the arena causing the crowd to "ooo" Rivers pins 1....2...Tolson kicks out. Rivers climbs to the top rope and waits for Tolson to get up, Tolson stumbles to her feet and Rivers leaps off with a diving Cross body, Tolson though drops down catching Rivers and dropping her stomach first across her knee. Rivers rolls around holding her stomach as Tolson shakes off the cobwebs. She pulls rivers up and pushes her into the corner and starts to drill Rivers with strikes to the legs in the moves she calls the ode to japan.
Terrell HANLEY: Wow Tolson is a beast...
Bill RICHARDSON: She is well versed in so much...these strikes are straight out of japanese strong style...
Brittney MUELLER: You can hear them...god they're brutal...
Tolson pulls Rivers out by her arm and slams in a clothesline sending her down. Tolson pulls Rivers up for the Victory Drop Alpha, Rivers is able to get out of it and pops down in front of Tolson, she kicks Tolson in the stomach and sets up the mayhem, she hooks her arms and flips spiking Tolson on her head sending her limp. Rivers pins 1....2....3
Bill RICHARDSON: WOW QUINN RIVERS WINS!
Terrell HANLEY: No disrespect to Quinn but this was a huge upset!

The Video Package plays of a Wrestling Ring cast in shadows. A silhouette moves about the ring, hitting the ropes, front rolls, Hindu squats. Words begin to trail across the screen.
Honesty...
More silhouettes fill the ring, charging at the solitary warrior with him taking them down.
Fairness...
The man brings one of his attackers down with a side headlock rolling into a neck vice with the Attacker tapping.
Integrity in one's beliefs and actions...
The Man brings another attacker down jumping through the air, grabbing the man's arm and bringing him down into the Cross Arm Breaker with the Attacker quickly tapping.
A Man of Honor.....
The screen fills with the image of the man from the ring standing before the Stars and Stripes he so proudly defends.
The Pure Heart Paul Rogers....Coming to Mayhem.

Backstage Alyce Kessler wanders down the hall, barely glancing where she is going, her phone in one hand as she scrolls through something and a Rockstar in her other hand... She glances up from her phone to take a sip of her drink and as she does, she turns a corner and comes face to face with Renee Pleasant, who is standing arms folded, watching a monitor backstage.
Renee turns his attention to Alyce who freezes, can still half in front of her face, her expression changes to a 'deer caught in the headlights' look as she stares back at Renee without a word. Renee smirks slightly and turns fulls to face Alyce now keeping his arms folded... Alyce tilts her head back to be able to look him in the eyes, neither speak as she lowers the can and stares back.
After a long pause, Alyce steps out and around Renee, still neither saying a word as his eyes follow her movement, her pace picks up slightly as she passes him and continues down the hall, Renee laughs to himself, before turning back to the monitor.

The crowd seems already fired up, looking forward to whatever Honor Wrestling had planned for them tonight. You can hear them chant for their favorite superstars, or start chants every now and then.
With the arena lights going out they are left in complete darkness. Moments later a single purple spot falling on top of the entrance ramp before the tron starts to flicker. The words Hail the Pale Queen flashing one after the other. Combined with words spoken with some sort of echo effect. A husky female voice spoke.
And I looked, and behold a pale horse. And his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed him.
A dark laughter was heard when the music set in. A strong beat. ‘Painkiller’ by Judas Priest was blasting out of the speakers. When a female figure stepped through the curtain, inhaling the atmosphere.
Planets devastated
Mankind's on its knees
A savior comes from out the skies
In answer to their pleas
ELENA DEDRACA. Observing the crowd for a moment before starting to walk down the ramp. With more light applied to the ramp they got a better view of the the British bombshell. Her leather attire painting a perfect picture of the young athlete.
Moving to the rhythm of the music before reaching the ring, sliding in. With her head held high she was lazily leaning against the turnbuckle, giving that wicked grin. Looking through the crowd before she stretched her body and rolled her neck, awaiting the next challenge...
Daisie DAUGHTRY: Now in the ring, from London England, standing 5'8 the British Raven...ELLLLLLEEEENNNAA DEDRACA
Bill RICHARDSON: Elena has been making quite the impact...
Ana Valentine-JONES: Mmmm... Looks can be very deceiving and that one is a snake in the grass...
Brittney MUELLER: Elena has been nothing but the picture of a professional....
Ana Valentine-JONES: Brittney, girls like you are always so much more attractive when they don't speak....
Terrell HANLEY: Ha, Wow.
White and Pink spotlights spin around the arena as a school bell rings out & Playground by Trisha Paytas ft. Sean van der Wilt hits....
Alyce steps out onto the stage in her 'Ironette' costume wrestling gear to cheers, she pauses at the top of the ramp and as she throws her hands up in the air, pink and silver glitter shoots from the pyros.
Alyce then skips down the ramp, pausing to hi-5 fans and pose for a few selfies, before she runs up the steel steps, slipping between the top and middle ropes, she stops in the middle of the ring to spin on the spot and then blow a kiss out towards the audience/camera.
Daisie DAUGHTRY: and over there...from Es-sex England....Alyce Grace...Kessler....
Brittney MUELLER: Alyce Kessler is still very much a rookie...
Terrell HANLEY: True, but she has been impressive so far.
Ana Valentine-JONES: Beginners luck runs out eventually
Bill RICHARDSON: I think it's a little more than that?
Ana Valentine-JONES: Well, she has a chance to prove me wrong tonight doesn't she?
The bell rings with Alyce and Elena standing in their corners, they come out and stare each other down with a nod. They back up a bit and size each other up before going for a collar and elbow tie up. Alyce uses her slight height and weight advantage to shove Elena into the corner. The referee starts a count to release it, as he gets to four Alyce puts her hands up and steps back, Elena comes out of the corner and they go for another one, this time Elena ducks down and under picking Alyce up and slamming her face first with a takedown, Alyce though grabs Elena's wrist and spins out of it getting to her feet. Elena looks up surprised and gives Alyce a clap.
Terrell HANLEY: Alyce showing that she is constantly learning and evolving...
Ana Valentine-JONES: How? That was a basic counter... Do you applaud when she walks without falling over too?
Brittney MUELLER: Well, she took Elena by surprise...
Ana Valentine-JONES: Hardly difficult...
Bill RICHARDSON: Uh, back to the match?
Elena gets to her feet and they move around one another, Elena shoots in and goes to roll Alyce up with a schoolboy 1....2..Alyce kicks out and pops to her feet, Elena hits a side headlock takedown, Alyce wraps her legs around Elenas head and Elena pops up out of the head scissors with a kip up. Alyce scrambles to her feet and Elena attacks closing the space hitting a european uppercut, Alyce stumbles into the corner and Elena runs in with a running uppercut. She then whips Alyce across the ring to the corner, Elena runs in and Alyce leans back and kicks Elena in the face, Elena stumbles back and Alyce runs out hitting a jumping dropkick sending her down. Elena pops up and eats another dropkick this time sending her down harder. Alyce pops to her feet and leaps in the air with an elbow drop into a pin 1....2...Elena kicks out
Britney MUELLER: Both of these women are putting on an impressive show!
Bill RICHARDSON: Elena proving that ring rust shook right off!
Ana Valentine-JONES: Oh please... They're trading shots like kids in a school yard!
Britney MUELLER: This' what respectful competition looks like.
Ana Valentine-JONES: Well, it's dull.
Alyce pulls Elena to her feet and hooks her for a suplex, Elena blocks it and reverses it into a cradle ddt, Elena then rolls over into a pin 1....2...Alyce kicks out. Elena looks around slightly frustrated and gets to her feet pulling Alyce up before picking her up on her shoulders going for the British Wave, she spins Alyce who is able to shift her weight and land on her feet, she hits the ropes and as Elena turns around she blasts her with a spear sending the crowd into raptures!. Alyce pops to her feet with a smile and riles up the crowd.
Bill RICHARDSON: Can Alyce capitalize on this?
Terrell HANLEY: She's certainly more focused tonight...
Ana Valentine-JONES: Are you joking? She looks like sugar high Barbie out there!
Britney MUELLER: Elena can still come back from this...
Ana Valentine-JONES: Yes, she makes a habit of cropping up when not wanted...
Alyce tries to lock in the wedgie STF, Elena however scrambles to the ropes, the referee pulls Alyce back and explains to her that Elena got a rope break, as Elena gets up she turns and slams a roundhouse kick to the side of Alyce's head, she then picks Alyce up for the British wave again, this time Alyce slides down behind Elena and trips her up for the wedgie stf!, Elena reaches to the ropes but Alyce keeps her in the center of the ring, she reaches again but can't get there and is forced to tap

As the guitar riff of "I hope you suffer" by AFI begins to play, the lights slowly dim until a pitch black aura surrounds the ring, bright lights suddenly started to flash across the rafters, searching for the man who this music was indication of his arrival, knowing full well he wouldn't make what was considered a usual entrance. As AFI starts picking up the pace, Randy Fields appears in the stands with the crowd, clad in his usual attire...jet black leather jacket, black pants and a basic Nirvana t-shirt from your local Target.He made his way down the steps of the stands, fans trying to claw past security to get his hands on him, others backing away in genuine fear of the mysterious enigma haunting the darkness., his face stoic and emotionless as he slunk towards the barricade, jumping over it her turned back to face the fans, mumbling things the camera couldn't pick up before he rolled into the ring, Randy asked for a microphone as he began to talk.
Randy FIELDS: By the sound of things... some of you already know exactly who I am!
The Honor Wrestling attendance would make a slight reaction, some knowing who he might be, as others could care less.Randy would quickly interrupt them
Randy FIELDS: There's one thing I have to make clear. The man standing in front of you inside this ring? He is NOT the Randy Fields some of you might know. I'm not gonna stand here and lie to you guys. The only reason I'm here in Honor Wrestling... and I mean the ONLY REASON I am here inside this ring is... for myself! I have been in this business for nearly eight years and for eight years I have been lied to and taken advantage of! I have had guys riding off the coattails of my success to having my friends... people who I called my brothers stab me in the back!Over the course of my career, I have seen every sin imaginable committed in this business... and I am sick of it! I am sick of all the lies and the deception. I am sick of the paranoia of not being able to trust the guys I called my friends. I am sick of being pushed to the side for guys twenty years past their prime. I am sick of it and I am done with it.
The Honor Wrestling universe would give a mixed reaction to Randy's claim. Half of the crowd in support of his new attitude and the other half in confusion over the sudden serious tone of Randy's promo.
Randy FIELDS: Call this a shoot promo or call it what you will. The fact of the matter is that I've waited a long time to get all of this off my chest. And let me make myself clear; going forward, the only thing I'm going to be concerned about... is me. No more friends and no more empty promises. From this point on, the only man that Randy Fields can and will trust... is ME. There's a reason why I'm known around the world as the wrestling prophet and god of this generation and it is NOT because of the things I did at the Headquarters in California or anywhere else for that matter! They NEEDED ME more than I NEEDED THEM! And you know what? It's the exact same here. Honor Wrestling needs me more than I need Honor Wrestling. Unlike the other guys and girls in the back, I don't need to make a name for myself here.I don't owe a thing to Zack Goldman or anyone else for that matter! You hear a lot of guys say that they appreciate the opportunity to be here. Well let me tell you guys something, unlike the kids in the back... I have earned the right to be here!When Ana Jones came to visit me at the Florence State Prison with a contract in her hand. When Honor Wrestling presented me with more money in my pocket. You can bet your ass I took it!You are seeing a new chapter in my career and a new me. Let me mark this day for everyone in the back and the losers sitting on their ass.Honor Wrestling.....Welcome to the HOSTILE TAKEOVER!!
With that said, Randy Fields would drop the microphone to the mat creating the sound of a loud thud and static. Randy ring music would begin to play as the crowd in attendance could only look in silence at this shift in attitude. While the audience continues to ponder what the hell just happened.

Zack Goldman stands backstage, looking over some paperwork on a clipboard with a backstage employee when Ana Valentine-Jones approaches him, still holding the back of her head, he raises a brow as she approaches an obviously pained expression on her face.
Zack GOLDMAN: Ana, are you okay?
Ana Valentine-JONES: Yes... No thanks to the joke of a security team YOU employed...
Ana scoffs slightly and shakes her head, then grabs back at it as though the action caused her pain...
Zack GOLDMAN: What happened?!
Ana Valentine-JONES: Gabriel Griffin happened... Pathetic fool obviously thinks he needs an upper hand - I won't stand for it - I am the god damn VP and I WILL be respected! We let one get away with something like this and before you know it, the inmates will be running things and nowhere will be safe! Something has to be done, i demand-
Zack holds up a hand silencing Ana's rant and she huffs in an irritated way.
Zack GOLDMAN: I agree... Actions must have consequences...
Ana Valentine-JONES: Good! Then-
Again he holds her off and laughs slightly, shaking his head...
Zack GOLDMAN: Just deal with it - Talent Relations Ana, it's in the title...
Ana frowns for a moment as though she is unhappy with the outcome, but then her expression changes and she smiles, the smile forming a smirk as she nods her head slowly, then grabs at it again...
Ana Valentine-JONES: Ok... Ok, thank you Zack....
Before he can respond she turns around and walks off, still holding her head as she turns the corner... Zack stands quiet for a moment, before turning back to the employee and continuing his conversation Ana interrupted.
Zack GOLDMAN: Ana, are you okay?
Ana Valentine-JONES: Yes... No thanks to the joke of a security team YOU employed...

The lights go out as the beginning rift of "Kings Never Die" begins to play threw the speakers, once the main rap begin to play the lights begin to strobe, suddenly one light appears at the top of the arena and out from the top of the crowed appears Dexter Anthony. He makes his way down to the ring threw the crowed and finally jumps the barricade and then slides into the ring. He walks to the ropes and screams "FEED ME YOUR DREAMS!" before he goes to one corner and sits down back against the bottom turnbuckle waiting for the match to begin.
Bill RICHARDSON: Dexter Anthony was impressive last week.
Terrell HANLEY: He is an impressive guy..six foot six....two sixty five...
Brittney MUELLER: And a face that was crafted by the angels...
Bill RICHARDSON: Well this got weird...
The Lights Go out in the arena as the fans erupt as "Hail to the King" by Avenge Sevenfold hits over the speakers, The Sons of Chaos walk through the curtain with the leader, Kevin Hunter leading the way. Kevin Hunter makes his way down the ramp, throwing up the 'too sweet' sign as the fans continue to cheer as he step into the ring through the middle rope, before stepping onto a turnbuckle holding up the 'too sweet' gesture up again before pointing towards the camera, with his hand in a handgun gesture, 'pulling the trigger' before jumping off the turnbuckle.
Bill RICHARDSON: Well we all know who the dominant brother is....
Brittney MUELLER: Hey Kevin is the leader...and now he's got another shot...
The bell rings and Dexter Anthony runs across the ring bailing Kevin up into the corner with hard right hands over and over again before grabbing the ropes on either side and he slams in some side knees before grabbing Kevin by the back of the head and shooting in a european uppercut, and another and another before pulling Kevin into the center of the ring and hitting a pumphandle slam. Hunter bounces off the mat and Dexter pops up and steps over into the corner calling for Hunter to get to his feet. Hunter pulls himself up and Dexter runs hitting the cactus clothesline over the top rope to the floor.
Bill RICHARDSON: Wow what an opening by Dexter Anthony
Terrell HANLEY: He went after Kevin Hunter from behind...
Brittney MUELLER: I wish he'd take me from behind...
Terrell HANLEY: Seriously Brit....
Dexter jaws at a few fans as Hunter shakes his head trying to get his mind straight, he gets to his feet and as Dexter turns around Hunter launches himself at Dexter with hard right hands over and over before grabbing Dexter and throwing him into the steel steps. Dexter holds his shoulder as Hunter moves around him, he starts to stomp him down over and over again before pulling him up and rolling him into the ring. Hunter slides in and as Dexter pulls himself to his feet Hunter runs and hits a swinging neckbreaker to the mat, he pins Dexter 1...2....he kicks out. Hunter pulls Dexter up and hits an olympic slam.
Terrell HANLEY: Hunter has completely changed this around...
Bill RICHARDSON: He was able to get the upperhand outside the ring...
Brittney MUELLER: Damn this is hard hitting action...
Kevin Hunter weighs Dexter up and as he does he kicks him in the stomach and hits an ending moment, belly to back mat slam, he pins 1.....2....Dexter kicks out and Hunter slides around measuring Dexter up again this time for the buried alive. Dexter gets to his feet and Hunter jumps, Dexter throws Hunter forward causing him to crash to the mat back first. Her rolls over and gets to his feet holding his back. Dexter kicks Hunter in the stomach hitting his package piledriver he calls the nightmare spiking Kevin Hunter on his head, he pins 1....2....3

Renee Walker is standing backstage in front of a large Honor Wrestling backdrop. She holds the microphone firmly as she gets her cue and she flashes a pretty smile.
Renee WALKER: Ladies and gentlemen, making his in-ring debut at Mayhem this weekend, please welcome... “The Saint” Joshua Davidson.
The Saint steps into the camera shot with a friendly smile, wearing jeans, sandals, and a white long-sleeve henley shirt. Renee actually gives him a once-over like he’s captured her fancy before bringing the microphone in close.
Renee WALKER: Welcome to Honor Wrestling, Joshua
Renee points the microphone towards the Honor newcomer.
Joshua DAVIDSON: Thank you, Renee, glad to be here.
A slight seriousness comes over Renee as she begins her questions.
Renee WALKER: You’re moniker, The Saint, brings up images of a priest or a minister or something of the like. Yet you look like the normal beach-loving guy and not some holier-than-thou savior-figure. Can you shed some light on this?
Joshua smirks at the content of Renee’s question.
Joshua DAVIDSON: I was actually given my nickname by some buddies on the international wrestling circuit. They loved messing with me while I would pray and meditate on Holy Scripture before my matches. So when I went on a 6-month undefeated streak, they thought my religion was behind my early success so they started calling me “The Saint.” But it’s no secret that my personal religion plays big role in my life and what I do in the ring. I do believe I am called to bring justice to professional wrestling and I do believe I am called to be the Rebirth of Professional Wrestling. But I don’t need to do it wearing a friar’s robe or a priestly collar. I’m just a guy on a mission to make professional wrestling better each and every week.
Renee’s facial expression reveals intrigue.
Renee WALKER: That’s a tall order. There are several Honor superstars that believe they are God’s gift to wrestling. What makes you different?
Joshua nods as he understands where Renee’s question is going.
Joshua DAVIDSON: The difference between me and other so-called divine gifts to wrestling is that I don’t expect any special treatment. I don’t expect to be given title opportunities just because of who I believe I am. I know that I have to work just as hard as, if not harder than, everyone else on the roster to earn my title opportunities. I’m not here to change wrestling by my mere presence. I am here in Honor Wrestling to change wrestling one match, one event, one fan at a time. My innovative style is designed to capture the imagination of the fans and tell a redemptive story. When people leave at the end of a Showdown or Mayhem, I want to leave impacted by what they saw me do in the ring. That will bring about the rebirth of our sport.
Renee is ready with her next question.
Renee WALKER: Speaking of Mayhem, this weekend you are facing John Blade. A lot of people think this should be a cake walk for you. What do you say?
Joshua looks down for a moment and frowns with a slight shake of his head. He then looks back up at the camera.
Joshua DAVIDSON: John Blade, I want you to understand something very well. I don’t know if the incoherent presentation is a ruse or part of some mind game, but I take all my opponents seriously. You wouldn’t be allowed to sign a contract in a respected promotion like Honor if you didn’t have what it takes to bring it in the ring. So I am coming to Mayhem ready to test your skills. I’m ready for a hard fought match. I don’t believe in cake walks. They’re a disgrace to our sport. If you can give me your all at Mayhem, John Blade, I will respect you at the end of the night. But if this is all some kind of shenanigan for you, believe me, I will come down on your with a fiery wrath like you’ve never endured before. It comes down to you, John. How this match ends is up to you. Either way, I am walking away from Mayhem one step closer to the Rebirth of Pro Wrestling.
Joshua gives the camera an icy stare as Renee smiles and looks at the camera.
Renee WALKER: I’ll definitely be watching this match. Back to you at ringside.
Renee WALKER: Ladies and gentlemen, making his in-ring debut at Mayhem this weekend, please welcome... “The Saint” Joshua Davidson.
The Saint steps into the camera shot with a friendly smile, wearing jeans, sandals, and a white long-sleeve henley shirt. Renee actually gives him a once-over like he’s captured her fancy before bringing the microphone in close.
Renee WALKER: Welcome to Honor Wrestling, Joshua
Renee points the microphone towards the Honor newcomer.
Joshua DAVIDSON: Thank you, Renee, glad to be here.
A slight seriousness comes over Renee as she begins her questions.
Renee WALKER: You’re moniker, The Saint, brings up images of a priest or a minister or something of the like. Yet you look like the normal beach-loving guy and not some holier-than-thou savior-figure. Can you shed some light on this?
Joshua smirks at the content of Renee’s question.
Joshua DAVIDSON: I was actually given my nickname by some buddies on the international wrestling circuit. They loved messing with me while I would pray and meditate on Holy Scripture before my matches. So when I went on a 6-month undefeated streak, they thought my religion was behind my early success so they started calling me “The Saint.” But it’s no secret that my personal religion plays big role in my life and what I do in the ring. I do believe I am called to bring justice to professional wrestling and I do believe I am called to be the Rebirth of Professional Wrestling. But I don’t need to do it wearing a friar’s robe or a priestly collar. I’m just a guy on a mission to make professional wrestling better each and every week.
Renee’s facial expression reveals intrigue.

Bill RICHARDSON: Man I have been looking forward to this match....
Brittney MUELLER: We all have Bill...
Three days grace "I am machine" blasts over the PA as Alex Jones steps out onto the stage. His long two tone hair wet down his back and sides. He wears a black Alex Jones shirt and his wrestling gear. He gets down to the ring and leaps onto the apron before wiping his feet off and getting into the ring, he throws his arms out to the side before slapping his chest
Terrell HANLEY: Alex looks pumped yo...
Bill RICHARDSON: He always does...I'm a big fan of his work and I hope we get to actually see it tonight...
Incubus' Pardon Me hits and the crowd pops. But after a while no one comes out and the music dies down. Alex shakes his head as Daisie Dae steps into the center of the ring.
Daisie DAUGHTRY: Ladies and Gentlemen due to his actions earlier tonight Gabriel Griffin will not be here to compete in this match so your winner via forfeit...Alex Jones!
I am machine hits again but Alex walks over grabbing a mic.
Alex JONES: Whoa whoa whoa...wait up.....again?....this is a damn joke...
Alex pauses for a moment and shakes his head stepping around the ring.
Alex JONES: This is not how I want to go through this damn tournament. I don't care what Griffin did, bring his ass out here now so I can whoop it...
The crowd pops as Alex throws the mic down and bounces on the balls of his feet. He stares up at the entrance way but nothing happens. The referee holds his ear piece and walks up talking to Alex who shakes his head and yells loud enough for everyone to hear.
Alex JONES: She did what?!?!?
Alex shakes his head and slides from the ring walking back up the entrance way with his hands on his hips looking dejected as we pan over to the three announcers sitting ringside with a utter confused look on their faces.
Bill RICHARDSON: This is now the second time that not only these fans get screwed out of a match but also Alex Jones. Jones doesn't want to make it to the finals this way. What the hell is going on, where is Goldman!!
Brittany MUELLER: I have to agree, this is now cheating out devoted fans and is going to end up tainting Alex Jones victories in both round one and round two. Griffin was the best man for the job to stop him but low and behold, Alex wins again via Forfeit..
Bill RICHARDSON: Well folks, for Brittany and Terrell, I am Bill Richardson signing off here tonight. Be sure to check out Mayhem, live from Oakland, California this Saturday for any kind of fallout this may have...unbelievable...
The camera fades to black as the Honor Wrestling logo appears as we head off into the next TV Show...
