We open to a shot inside the Green Dome Maebashi Sub Arena, seeing a crowd of excited Japanese fans (along with a few familiar #SectionB faces) waiting the start of the show. Their excitement quickly sours as “Anti-Gravity” by Lindsey Stirling begins to play over the speakers. Out from the curtain steps the leader of the newly unbanned REVOLUTION, flanked by the group’s Four Islands representative Kiriko Miura. Shozo, microphone in hand, raises an arm in greeting to the booing crowd as the two begin to walk to the ring, the both of them entering with Shozo walking to the center of the ring while Kiriko walks to the corner and slumps down in it. Shozo has a smile on his face as he begins to speak. Shozo Arino: (R)Evolution...the REVOLUTION has returned. And I could not be more pleased about that. Our temporary banning from here was, to me, quite sad. After all, (R)Evolution was our home. This is where our careers began, where we all met one another, where we all discovered a shared desire in one another, a desire to save this business. A desire to not allow it to continue on the path to rotting away it’s on. A desire to Evolve. You can react to us however you want, but not a person can deny...that (R)Evolution was the birthplace of REVOLUTION. And thus, today, I am left with a feeling of melancholy. Do you know why? He pauses a moment to allow the crowd, who’s booing has died down mostly due to their confusion over where Shozo was going with this, to come to their own ideas about it. Shozo Arino: It’s because I’ve come to a realization. All of our members have graduated to the main rosters. Aries and GRENDEL have become the tag team champions. Devan is but a week away from being San Diego Bay champion. I’m handling my own affairs. And so I realized that the chances are high that this might be the last cycle of (R)Evolution shows that the members of REVOLUTION will have time to regularly appear on. The crowd begins cheering this news, a move that Shozo seems sad but unsurprised about. Shozo Arino: I expected that reaction, and it’s fine. You’re all see our path is the right one soon enough. But, if you could, look at it from my point of view. This place was our home, where we would begin to forge our bond as a family, where each of us realized what we needed to do to attain our own personal Evolutions. More than that, it’s where the future cornerstones of this business are trained. Here is where they learn about the business, where the initial information that will shape them as wrestlers is inputted. And the thought of a (R)Evolution without a member of REVOLUTION, without a single person there to show the benefits of Evolving past those things...saddens me. And thus, I am here with an announcement...but, before I get to that… He turns to face the entrance ramp, looking up at the curtain. Shozo Arino: There’s someone out there that wishes to have a talk with me. So how’s about we skip the traditional interrupting me in the middle of a sentence bit, and you just come out for our chat, Mr. Alexander? After a moment, it’s not just Damon Alexander that emerges from behind the curtain, but Mistress Vivienne along with him. The pair, unaccompanied by theme music, make their way down the aisle, Damon acquiring a microphone before getting into the ring. After a moment where the two confer, he begins. Damon Alexander: I’m...glad we could do this like civilized people, just like I asked on Twitter. Truth is, it’s not you that I think either Vivi or myself have a problem with. It’s Devan, and how she...I’m assuming here, but how she orchestrated your attack on Simon back at “Dead in Hollywood.” I’m glad that Mr. Stearns has revoked your banishment, though, because...to be honest, I think the best way to get this handled is right here in this ring. Shozo Arino: First off, yes. What happened to Mr. Raines at the Dead in Hollywood show was indeed the brainchild of our Sith member. It was the key to her Evolution, so we all readily agreed. And as for your honesty...I appreciate it. Those sound like words of action, not words of...well, of sobbing. I can already see you’re farther along the path than Simon is. Damon holds his gaze, trying to keep an eye on the form of Kiriko in the corner, but nods in response to Shozo. He glances back at Vivi, but is quickly focused back on the man in front of him. Shozo Arino: No reason to keep your eyes on her, Mr. Alexander. Kiriko is merely here to keep me company, there’s no threat. A civil conversation, remember? Damon Alexander: ...Of course. So then...you’ll accept our challenge? Me, Vivienne, two partners of our choosing...against REVOLUTION? Shozo smiles. Shozo Arino: How could I not? If you believe the right path for you is to run into the brick wall of the REVOLUTION, then so be it! We’ll face you. Indeed...I can already see the team in my mind. Damon nods, already thinking about this in his head before starting out loud. Damon Alexander: I can imagine. Maybe not all four of the main roster members; after all, Kiriko’s here, being that we’re here in Japan. Maybe you...GRENDEL, Aries, her? Shozo Arino: Not all main roster members…. Shozo begins to laugh, finding some humor that’s only known to him in this. Damon simply has a confused face, looking over at Vivi as if she can provide some answers. Shozo Arino: I agree with you, Damon! Perhaps facing a group of students with our full might would be unfair. So, your idea, I agree...a member that’s not on the main roster will be on our side in this match… He grins. Shozo Arino: But it won’t be Kiriko. Damon’s only response at first is an eyebrow raise, but then… Damon Alexander: Alright. Humor me, then. What’s your team? Shozo Arino: I’ll keep one surprise for you, your heart wouldn’t be able to take both but I’ll tell you now. Whenever this match takes place, you and yours will find yourself across the ring from me...the monster GRENDEL...and our newest member. Our (R)Evolution representative. Shozo then begins to take steps towards Damon, getting as close to in his face as he could get without setting off Damon’s fist in the face response. Shozo Arino: Tell me something, Damon...do you have dreams of fighting us all? Of avenging your sad crying friend and fighting the REVOLUTION...of smashing us to the ground and breaking each and every single one of us? Damon’s face twists into one of defiance, almost moving toward Shozo in response. Damon Alexander: You hurt one of my best friends, you and your band of misfits. I’ll tear you apart if I have to. Doesn’t matter who’s in our way. Another fit of laughter comes over Shozo, lasting a few moments before he snaps back, the grin on his face stretching to a near maniacal level. Shozo Arino: Are you suuuuuure about that, Damon? It doesn’t matter who’s in front of you? Are you suuuuure? Mistress Vivi takes the microphone from Damon, facing down Shozo. Mistress Vivi: You know, just once it would be nice to get a straight answer out of one of you people. Just cut to the chase, I’m getting bored and I’d like to know who’s decided to jump aboard your crazy train. Vivi cutting in seems to have shaken Shozo out of whatever trip he’d been going on, the maniacal grin disappearing as he sighs. Shozo Arino: No one has the stomach for a little suspense these days. What a shame. But, fine, “Mistress”...I’ll allow the cat out of the bag. (R)Evolution Wrestling…. He allows another moment of suspense, the grin starting to play across his face again. Shozo Arino: Bow to your Queen. And before they can begin to comprehend what he’s said, “Massive Addictive” by Amaranthe begins to play over the speakers. Damon’s face switches from defiance to shock as he spins around to face the entryway. Mistress Vivi: Oh, freaking lovely. Another psycho bitch for me to take out… sorry Damon. The crowd seems to be somewhat confused as Elizabeth lannister slowly makes her way out from the back. Dressed in her ring attire, she has her hands on her hips as she walks down the aisle and climbs the steps. Stepping in between the bottom and middle ropes, she turns her head towards Vivi and simply stares a hole into the Voodoo priestess. She walks over to Shozo and accepts the mic from his outstretched hand. She waits a few seconds for things to return to normal before speaking. Elizabeth Lannister: Surprise. You want a straight answer “priestess,” is that it? Well you and everyone else are about to get one. You wanted to know who would be crazy enough to saddle up to REVOLUTION, right? Crazy isn’t quite how I would describe myself. Smart is one word. Enlightened is another. Look around you. Look at the landscape here not only in rEvolution but in EXODUS as well. People are so bent on clinging to the ways of the past as a means for survival that they are completely blind to everything else. They are so wrapped up in protecting their own egos that as soon as someone comes along and thinks just a hair outside of the box, they are deemed a menace to society and must go. She pauses a second before flipping a few strands of hair over her shoulders. Elizabeth Lannister: That stops right now. No more will we be pushed aside and treated like outcasts. No longer will we be shoved aside in favor of someone who has no real way of handling TRUE talent. Right here and right now, REVOLUTION is going to start changing the minds of everyone who doubts us. GRENDEL and Aries started the trend by winning the EXODUS tag team titles. I have ZERO doubts that Devan will walk out of Tokyo the San Diego Bay champion. As for the rest of us? It will only be a matter of time before our chance to shine bright comes along. She lowers the microphone and looks at Vivi and Damon. Vivi looks about ready to pounce into action while Damon looks shocked and a touch confused. Elizabeth Lannister: Now Damon, I know you probably have a thousand and one questions about what all is going on. Trust me when I say I will answer every one of them…..away from certain eyes. While I could go on and on and on about just how I really feel about certain individuals in this ring, I have more class than to air my dirty laundry in public. I just want you to remember something, “priestess.” I have a damn good memory and I rarely, if ever, forget anything. It is a trait that will prove to be very beneficial as Khaleesi. Just one more piece of advice. REVOLUTION is a very real thing. REVOLUTION is here to stay You can either evolve…. She makes sure she is looking directly at Vivi as she continues to speak. Elizabeth Lannister:....or die. Make your choice. Mistress Vivi: Let me tell you something, princess. You belong with this group. You’re a spoiled, petulant child who claims titles she has no right to and demands accolades she has not earned… just like the rest of REVOLUTION. I wanted to like you, I really did, despite the absolute lack of personality and the stick shoved so far up your flat ass I’m surprised it’s not coming out your mouth. But I guess we’re going to have to do this another way. So remember this, Elizabeth Lannister. You’ve pissed off Mistress Vivienne Robichaud, Voodoo Queen of New Orleans, High Priestess of Baron Samedi. I will not bend. I will not break. And I will have my revenge. Let’s go, Damon. We have work to do. Mistress Vivi tosses the mic aside and tugs hard on Damon’s arm, shoving him toward the ring steps ahead of her so they can both exit. Elizabeth watches Vivi walk away with Damon with no small amount of disdain, before returning her attention to the booing crowd. She gives them a smile as Shozo raises her arm in the air, presenting the woman who’d lead (R)Evolution into a REVOLUTION...

A BOY NAMED SUE vs. CARLTON WINSLOW Carlton Winslow has clearly been training hard lately, looking to be in better shape than he ever has before. He came into this match ready to impress and show everyone that Carlton Winslow was a name to look out for. The bell rang, and Carlton moved in to get into a grapple, ready to put on a hell of a wrestling match. A Boy Named Sue responded by headbutting Carlton straight in the face. Carlton crumpled to the mat, and Sue mounted him, beginning to wail down on him with punch after devestating punch, until the referee ordered the bell rang at which point Sue removed himself from what use to be Carlton Winslow. The crowd sat in stunned silence at this brutal display, uncertain what to think about this monstrous man. WINNER: A BOY NAMED SUE The camera comes up in the backstage corridor. As it comes into focus, we see Sue, fresh from his debut match with Carlton Winslow, walking down the corridor, alone. He’s removed his t-shirt, it hanging over his shoulder, allowing the sweat on his chest to glisten under the backstage lights. He’s added a backwards baseball cap to his post-match attire, and walks with an indifferent air. Suddenly, Heather Halliwell steps out in front of the camera. She catches up to Sue and taps him on the shoulder. Heather Halliwell: Mind if I get a word? The young Alaskan stops in his tracks, and turns, slowly, to face Heather and the camera. He smiles, a pleasant, yet dead, smile, raises an eyebrow, and remains silent. Heather smiles a friendly smile and carries on. Heather Halliwell: That was quite a victory you just picked up here in your debut. Sue just shrugs, his smile staying firm on his face, his ice blue eyes blazing. Heather Halliwell: A man of few words, I got it. That's quite alright with me. But do tell, what are your short term goals from here? What do you want to accomplish here in Revo? Again, the young man just shrugs his shoulders, staying silent. Heather smirks and puts a hand on her hip. Heather Halliwell: Look kid, it's my first official night in this gig, so cut me some slack? Sue chuckles lightlys, and his smile seems to brighten. When he talks, his voice is deep, and rough, but quiet, and measured. Sue: Ma’am, if I may call you ma’am, I’m not like most of the kids here. I’m not here to talk. I’m not here to make friends. I’m not here to prove something. I’m here to fight, plain and simple. Some folks here are willing to let me fight, and pay me for the privilege, so that’s all that there is, really. Sue’s turns on a million watt smile right at Heather, and the camera, before backing away politely, turning and heading back on his way.

CTHULHU JONES vs. EMI WATANABE vs. NAISER KING Anyone who expected something pretty was sorely mistaken from the get go. Naiser and Emi went right into a slug fest, allowing the smaller Cthulhu to observe from afar and give himself a chance to create a strong strategy for how best to combat the two titans. With Emi and Naiser continuing to brawl not just in the ring but out of it, The Harbinger of Noir studying each of his opponents until he waited for them to reach the right spot before he ran and leaped out of the ring with a huge no hands plancha that wiped out both goliaths! With Naiser stunned, Jones grabbed Watanabe and threw her into the ring to fight her, choosing her as the one he had the best chance at. Naiser tried to reenter the ring, but a well timed Irish whip from Jones to Watanabe had her collide with King to send him flying off the apron, leading to Jones leaping up and connecting with the Madness Spiral on Watanabe! Carefully hoisting her up onto the turnbuckles, he backed up and charged towards Emi, nailing the The MacGuffin and picking up a big victory tonight. WINNER: CTHULHU JONES Jones started to celebrate by lighting up a cigarette until he was interrupted by the screen coming to life.... The video feed on the screen cuts to static for a brief second before a choppy video begins. The footage is of poor quality, clearly being recorded on a standalone camera, with equipment that the production crew do not use. In the ring Cthulhu walks forwards towards the screen, wondering what’s going on as we see a 5 second shot of concrete, before the shaky camera spins around to see the face of NoVaK, the Supernova. An eery, distressing tone is heard faintly playing in the background, like a razor being dragged along a piano wire as NoVaK simply stares into the camera. NoVaK: Isn’t...this...LOVELY!!! He brings the camera closer to his face, shrouded in darkness but for a faint red light above him. NoVaK begins to smile from ear to ear, his bright red eyes searching the crowd like the sun beats over a desert. NoVaK: Just who I...wanted...to see. The Supernova wipes his mouth, then twitches his neck. After doing this the lights in the arena begin to fade until the lights are shut off completely - the face of Cthulhu illuminated only by the screen he’s fixated on. NoVaK: You see...well...you KNOW...I can’t be out there, tonight. Yes. I can’t. She said I had to...conserve myself. THEY SAID...NoVaK is too...DANGEROUS. HeeHeeHeeeeeeee. The mysterious painted man begins to rock back and forth, the choppy video footage following along with him. NoVaK: So I can’t be there...OR...WHAT’S THIS? CAN...I? OH...BEHIND YOU!!! The lights flash back on, and NoVaK is standing behind Cthulhu! Jones catches on quickly, pivoting and lunging towards The Supernova, only for the lights to go off again! The lights flash back on, and NoVaK is nowhere to be seen. Still, on the screen all this time, he leans into the camera once more, grinning. NoVaK: NO! Not there. HeeHeeeHeee. GOTCHA!!! Instantly NoVaK raises a gloved finger. NoVaK: Now, now...now! Wait a, second. I’ve HAD my...fun. But, I have a point, to...make! Now...Cthulhu JONES! The Supernova couldn’t HELP...but notice. That you’re somewhat...SOMEWHAT, of an investigator!! So I, challenge, you. Try to investigate, NoVaK, the Supernova. Because, for a PRIVATE INVESTIGATOR...you DIDN’T knooooooow, where I, was. Heeeeee!!! He wipes his mouth. Looking around the dimly lit room he’s in. NoVaK: I...wanted to be, out there. In amongst, the action...the fighting...whatnot. Yes. I truly WOULD have, but...I was told I couldn’t...I’m a follower, sometimes, NOT! I look out...at my SUUUUPERSTARS --- and I see...that I’m a LEADER! And they follow ME!NoVaK, the Supernova!WILLINGLY!OR BY FORCE!!!NoVaK begins to laugh, then clicks his fingers. Suddenly a purple UV light turns on in amongst the rest of the lighting, and to the audience’s horror, their faces are painted with the same star that The Supernova bears upon his face! Some audience members try to rub the stars off with their hands, some with their sleeves, others covering their eyes so as to not see all NoVaK’s ‘SUUUUPERSTARS’. With an unnerving grin, NoVaK bring the camera to his mouth, and violently begins to whisper in a tune. NoVaK: ...PEOPLE THEY COME TOGETHER. PEOPLE THEY FALL APART.
NO ONE CAN STOP US NOW, ‘COS WE ARE ALL MADE OF STARRRRRRSSSSSSS... YeeeeeeeeeeeeeHaHaHaHaHaHaHa!With that, the video slowly cuts to static.

GOTHRA vs. YUKIKO HOJO Once again the mighty GOTHRA stomped into a (R)Evolution ring, ready to make a big splash in her beloved Japan. Her opponent, meanwhile, broke the mold of previous GOTHRA opponents by not seeming slightly bewildered by her and instead seemed oddly excited about the proceedings. Indeed, she even approached GOTHRA for a hug before the match began. Unfortunately due to her immense size, the hug was simply not possible. Which only served to make poor Yukiko sad. This set the tone for the match itself, really, as Yukiko sought out ways to get around the impressive wingspan of the GOTHRA to hit her speedy moves. She did actually manage to take her off her feet at one point with a crossbody, but was unable to capitalize as GOTHRA quite nimbly rolled out of the way of her kneedrop from the top rope. GOTHRA meanwhile used the wings to her advantage, smacking Hojo in the face with them to distract her for a palm strike, nailing a standing Mothsault, a name given by Minoru that seemed to drive Pond legitimately insane. Meanwhile, GOTHRA seemed prepared to end things when she suddenly found Yukiko's legs around her moth head, and was hurricanrana'd to the mat! She then hit the ropes and came at GOTHRA with a deadly Flying Glomp...or that was the idea, at least. Instead, she seemed to once again miscalculate the wings, so instead of crushing GOTHRA's chest in her hug, she instead kind of slid down her leg, which combined with her wild flailing gave the appearance that Yukiko was kind of humping the great GOTHRA's leg. GOTHRA, not having any of that shit, elbowed Yukiko off of her, grabbing her and ascending the turnbuckle to nail the Dark Echo for the victory! The GPB and the Shobijin entered the ring to celebrate with the great Kaiju, who seemed most pleased with her victory. Or as far as we could tell at least. She's kind of a Moth, emotions are hard to make out. WINNER: GOTHRA

EXPLOSIVO vs. VENUS Explosivo came out swinging...or as swinging as a luchador could when it came to air time. Venus was overwhelmed by the lightning speed of the masked warrior, having to leave the ring for a breather, only to be caught off guard by a tornillo from Explosivo! Explosivo continued to take flight and control the match, showing the Japan crowd that he was more than capable of being a star in RW, giving the Supermodel Submission Starlet more than she seemingly could handle. The problem for him came the minute that Venus put her knees up and reversed a huge senton splash from him, sending him crashing. Getting Explosivo grounded was just what she needed to help her as she quickly locked Explosivo into the DeMilo Lock, once again cementing a victory for her and establishing that sooner or later, she was going to have to be given an opportunity to shine either in (R)Evolution or EXODUS. Post match, she added insult to injury by snapping a few selfies of her in the ring with a fallen Explosivo, bragging she would send them to Angela Jameson because she "did something she couldn't." WINNER: VENUS

ANNA GIOVANNA/DAMON ALEXANDER/WEAPON vs. DAMAGE INC./PHILIPPE BERTRAND What was suppose to be an exciting 6-man went south immediately as the moment the bell rang, Philippe Bertrand shoved past the two members of Damage Inc, wanting to take point. The two destructive women shared a look and immediately left the ring. Once Bertrand noticed this, he just seemed very sad as the beating began. Anna nailed him with multiple elbows, finally ending it with the Golden Elbow and a tag to WEAPON. The new WEAPON began to lay into Bertrand with palm strike after palm strike, working him into the corner where she then smashed him with the Great Gospel. Then it was the Demon's turn. The Demon who's girlfriend just joined REVOLUTION. He wasn't very happy with things, and Bertrand suffered for it, eating punch after punch before finally being put out of his misery with the Supernova Lariat for the pin. WINNER: ANNA/DAMON/WEAPON The (R) Evolution broadcast cuts to a well lit room far away from bright lights and screaming fans. We find Tom Matheny here, sat before a lavishly painted backdrop with the words ‘R to the Core’ splashed across it in graffiti art. He sits upon a comfortable looking armchair with a pile of documents in his hand. He smiles to the camera then begins to speak. Tom Matheny: Ladies and Gentlemen, I am here today to bring you a World Exclusive right here on tonight’s (R) Evolution broadcast. Tonight I will give the very first sit down interview with one of the newest, youngest and brightest new stars to enter (R) Evolution… Jackie “The Lad” Fowler. Jackie, welcome. The camera pans out and we see Jackie Fowler laid out on one of the sofas across from Tom, wearing a light blue tracksuit with the words (R) Evolution Dojo written upon them. He ruffles his own hair nervously for his first ever interview. Jackie Fowler: Yeah, yeah. Cheers and all that shite. Tom Matheny: Right… Okay, Jackie, thank you for joining me today, and even though this show is not censored, can we please try to keep the bad language to a minimum? Jackie Fowler: Fuck off! Tom shuffles in his seat nervously as he begins his questioning. Tom Matheny: Okay. First things first, this is a huge transition for you. Very much like Black Jones, you were originally one of the many fans that attend the EXODUS live events and a well-known member of the group of EXODUS supporters known as ‘Section B’. How has it been changing from looking out in the crowd, to competing in the ring? Jackie Fowler: It’s been fuckin’ different, man. Been used ta sitting down in that front row with a few boozes and shouting at whatever is happening in the ring. Now I’m right up there with the fuckin’ lights shining in me eyes with a few boozes and shouting at whoever is across from me in the ring while getting shouted at by whoever is now sat in me seat. It’s fuckin’ weird man. Always wanted to be in the ring, but never thought I’d get the chance over here. Tom Matheny: One thing that is quite well known about you is that you had quite the notorious reputation at EXODUS live events, mostly for what can only be described as ‘unruly’ behaviour. Head of EXODUS security, Johnny Lee Richwine, has noted in the past that he had to eject you from many of our live events. Jackie Fowler: Oh, he’s a proper cock jockey, that one. All I ever did was be myself. A lot of fuckers seem to have a problem with that, but they don’t know shit about me. But you know, nobody ever asked before. Nobody bothered asking. First impressions and shit, innit? I never made a good impression, ever. Never bothered me at all. Didn't really give two tosses. Jackie lets out a brief, if not nervous laugh as Tom nods. Tom Matheny: Coming into Revo with such a reputation, was it hard to be accepted by your fellow Dojo class members and, most of all, the trainers? Jackie Fowler: First impressions again, weren’t it? I walked through the door with me messed up hair and wearing me trackies and everyone turned their fuckin’ noses up. Some of em knew me from the crowd, others didn’t have a clue. But yeah, a lot of the fuckers in there thought I’d be gone in like a day or two, some of the trainers as well. But I got me head down, knuckled up and showed em that I was worth being there. And here I am. You know, some of the trainers treated me exactly the same as everyone else. I got some respect for turning up, day in day out. Fair play for that. Flipping through his questions, Tom continues on as Jackie sits up, straightening his track suit top. Tom Matheny: Can you tell us a little more about your friendship with Carey Caldwell and Daniel Lanning, the group that you are part of that has been affectionately coined ‘The Booze Brothers’? Jackie Fowler: Those two are me brothers in arms, man. I’ve only made a few friends in this business, and a fuck ton of enemies, but those two are mates for life, right. We all have different backgrounds and strengths and all that malarkey, but we all get along and we will all fight to the death for one another. They’re like family man. Tom Matheny: All three of you are well known as what can only be described as ‘out and out brawlers’. What can you tell us about the differences between your styles? Jackie Fowler: We’re all punchers, man. Hard as fuck punchers. Carey is wild and crazy man, once he gets into that zone there’s few that can stop him. You know, I’ve been watching the biz for fuckin’ years, right, and he’s got the makings of a champ. I’ll tell you that much for free. He ain’t some repeater Kay chiming out the same shit over and over. He weren’t made on a conveyor belt. He’s always getting better, always getting stronger. I’d say, right now, he’s probs the most skilled out the lot of us. As for Dan the Man, he’s a stone cold killer, man. He is cold, he’s calculated and I’m pretty sure one day he’s gonna kill someone with that Taskmaster of his. He’s a fuckin’ brick shithouse, that one, carved out of fuckin’ rock. As for me, I’m the quickest and the most technical. I’ve competed on an amateur level as a boxer, which is experience they don’t have, that no one in Revo has. And I don’t see anyone in Revo walking the ropes like I do, man. Jackie seemed strangely upbeat and positive after talking about his team mates, and Tom seems impressed with the glowing references he gave them. Tom Matheny: What is your relationship with other members of the (R) Evolution roster? It is well known as a tight knit group, and we’d love to hear your opinions on some of them. Jackie Fowler: I don’t really talk to a lot of em. Most of em are pricks who think their shit don’t stink. Some of em are so far up each other’s arseholes their spilling out each other’s noses, which are then jammed up someone else’s arse. Some of the birds are looser than a dying man’s handshake. Some of the blokes think their God’s gift, but their just plain dumb gob shites and as useless as tits on a bull. There’s some on the roster I have some respect for though. The two Anna’s for defs, and Sydney is a tough cookie. But the rest, you know, most of em want to either be a monster or a shagger, but the biz has enough of those already. Tom Matheny: And what about your recent friendship with the newest star to sign with the main EXODUS Pro roster, Ruby Tyler? Willing to spill any details on that? Jackie simply shakes his head, raising a hand out defensively. Jackie Fowler: I ain’t talking bout that, man. Look, me and Slippers get along, and that’s all I’m saying. She’s a good egg and she’s gonna take the main roster by storm, right. We’ll leave it at that, you nosy cuntrag. Tom Matheny: Recently, your fortunes have changed in (R) Evolution and you have gained some key victories, most notably on our last broadcast. How much does a victory like that mean to you? And how does it change your outlook on the future? Jackie Fowler: That win made a metric fuck ton of difference, man. Damo and Si were two of the worst offenders when I first started at the Dojo, and they went out of their way to make me feel unwelcome. Couldn’t give a toss what those five finger flutists think right now, but knocking em down a peg or two felt good to me. They treated me like shit, then got shit on. Simple as. And whilst they were out partying the night away, I was getting better and actually trying to help EXODUS itself. Fowler seems quite proud of what he has just said and accomplished. Tom Matheny: That is an interesting point, you were one of few Revo stars to be involved in the climax of the Autumn Effect’s main event, coming out to battle with Matthews Security to defend EXODUS Pro in its darkest hour. What can you tell us about your experiences there? Jackie Fowler: You gotta do what you gotta do, man. Long while back I was asked to do a bit of spy work by Andreas Lasiewicz. It’s not really a fuckin’ secret or nothing now, so I may as well tell ya. I looked into a few things, checking what those nonces in Chuck Matthews’ security team were doing, liberated a few uniforms with a five finger discount and Bob’s ya fuckin’ uncle. When it came down to the fight though, I didn’t really put much thought into it. They were tryin’ to dick over EXODUS, and I weren’t having that. Pretty sure everyone else will say the same. Tom Matheny: You have mentioned in the past that you have been a fan of the business all of your life. Who were your major influences growing up? Jackie Fowler: I used to watch a lot of the old British stuff, you know. And I made no bones about being an old school GDW fan. The likes of Silver, Redfield and Gambino were some of me faves. I was kinda star struck when I first met Lasiewicz and Angela Jameson, those two were fucking vicious back in those days. Still are to be honest. I used to be a fan of Johnny Cannon when he broke through into the biz, but that was before he turned into a whiny little cumdumpster. White Phoenix was a bit of a baws too. And I might not have admitted it before, but I was a fan of Darrin Stearns when he did all that hardcore death match stuff back in the day. Not seeing him compete anymore might but why I’m a bit harsh on him these days. And Christian Kane, man. He fuckin’ cracks me up. If you ain’t a fan of his, you’re thick as pig shit. The pair of them share a brief laugh, Jackie with a little twinkle in his eye after talking about some of his favourite wrestlers. Tom Matheny: You mentioned some of EXODUS Pro’s current stars in that list. If you could book yourself on the main card for the next pay per view, who would you be against, and why? Jackie Fowler: Fuck me, that’s a tough one, innit. I’d probably say Wulf Erikksen cause that would be a proper bar brawl man. He’s a fucking tough bloke, and it shows when he pops down to the dojo. So yeah, probs him. That or be in a Daughters of Janus sandwich. Don’t tell Slippers I said that. Tom Matheny: Erm… this is recording. But before we finish off this interview, I’d like to wish you the best of luck in the future. But speaking of the future, what does that hold in store for Jackie “The Lad” Fowler? Jackie Fowler: I’m just gonna keep going day by day, man. Keep trying, hanging round with me boys and sending bellends off for dental appointments. Future is bright, man. I’m going places. Deron is gonna find that out this week. And if worst comes to worst and someone is all set for starting another war… The Bowland Brawler has a few tricks up his sleeve that no fucker will ever see coming. That’s for sure. Tom Matheny: Thank you for this interview, Jackie. Tom extends his hand to offer a handshake, but Jackie simply looks at his hand and flips him the bird. Jackie Fowler: Suck me dick. The footage then abruptly fades and we return to ringside.

KYLAR STARK vs. VIVIENNE ROBICHAUD Mistress Vivi was fresh off of a major showing in the Top of the Class tournament, showing people from the start that she was a force to be reckoned with. Her issue this time came in the form of the much larger and much angrier Kylar Stark. Despite Kylar having on and off issues since his arrival, he still had a lot of size and strength over the Voodoo Queen. For the early parts of the bout, Stark threw around the smaller Vivi, making surer that he established dominance early. Not only was it to help gain a victory, but the knowledge that he would take a victory over the impressive Mistress Vivi would help get him back on track. Stark continued to not just assault her with the use of his size, but even managed to avoid some of her major attempts at a comeback, derailing each of them with a huge power move that left her eating a number of near falls. Vivi finally managed to duck under a Silk City Necktie attempt and leap up to lock Stark in the Agonizing Ecstasy, effectively neutralizing him and causing a tap out for a MAJOR upset for the smaller underdog in this match up! Vivi continues to look strong and seems to be in the hunt for a title shot as the weeks go by. WINNER: VIVIENNE ROBICHAUD

DERON FRANKLIN vs. JACKIE 'THE LAD' FOWLER Another former main roster member hit the (R)Evolution roster tonight, as Deron Franklin made his debut. With his #Derontourage now severely downsized to just two followers, Deron looked ready to impress. Jackie the Lad meanwhile was looking to continue his recent successes. And they went at each other to show they wanted it. Early on it seemed to be Deron's game, as his speed allowed him to continously move around Fowler, ducking in to hit a move and then ducking right back out before the Lad could have a chance to strike him. This seemed to work wonders, Then, as he was lining up to nail Jackie with something nasty, Jackie suddenly exploded out, SMASHING his knee into Deron's face! The look on Deron's face as he laid on the mat said everything: he realized he'd been duped by the Lad into wasting energy. And Fowler punished him for falling for it. He began to lay into Deron with hard strikes that seemed to really shake him, and things seemed to be about over until Deron suddenly nailed Jackie with a hard gut shot that seemed to take his breath out! Deron went to hit the ropes for something, only for Jackie to crash into his back, crashing them both into the ropes, Jackie grabbing him by the waist and rolling him up for the 3 count! Jackie exploded up in excitement as the crowd went wild! The Lancashire native forgoing the raising of his hand to slide out the ring and hop the rail, immediately beginning a celebration with the crowd, as the Derontourage went in to console Deron. WINNER: JACKIE FOWLER The camera’s move to another location within the Green Dome Maebashi Sub Arena, and the figure we first see most notably is the mysterious individual known to the wrestling world as Mogui. His head is lowered as his world war two gas mask sits proudly obscuring his face. The sound of footsteps can be heard and this is when we see Jaina Frost walk into view. Her hair hangs down freely past her shoulders, her makeup done to perfection. But it’s her stance, her posture and how she presents herself physically is the most eye catching. She has a look of a true challenger tonight. She pauses from pacing back and forth to look at Mogui a smirk grows on her lips before she turns on her heels quickly to look at the camera with an almost twisted gaze... Jaina Frost: (R)evolution Wrestling, tonight is the night! Jaina grins, her body sways a little to the left... Jaina Frost: Tonight we go one on one with Sydney... Tonight WE challenge for the (R)Evolution Wrestling WOOORRRRRLLD Championship and WE could NOT be happier! Jaina now scowls specifically at the camera, her body sways to the right... Jaina Frost: Oh what a night, what fun you and I shall have Sydney. Do you believe you are going to beat me? Do you think that tonight is going to end up like every other challenge you have faced to date? We know you can claim victory over our Mogui here, we know you use it to build your confidence and rightfully so, he is a champion himself... The scowl disappears from Jaina’s face while she turns to look at Mogui who has now slid the mask up to his head, revealing his freakishly tattooed face. His own gaze to the camera looks borderline psychotic... Jaina Frost: “Look at him, he’s beautiful isn’t he? So loyal, but tonight he stays back here because WE want no excuses. You see I stand here with no excuses after my match against Fiona Collins. I stand here proud of what I accomplished that night; I took the fight TO her, the wife of the Mr. Collins! But my best just wasn’t good enough however, but that won’t mean much when you and I face Sydney, which has been a while in the making. Jaina lets off a cackle now; she then lets out a sigh. Jaina Frost: You see tonight is special because I get to represent the Sister of Sin, I get to bring home a championship. More importantly than that, I get to claim a small measure of revenge after what happened to Celeste. She’s healing nicely by the way, she can’t wait to come back and raise hell herself but until then I will make my sisters proud, I will make my brothers proud. Jaina pauses and tilts her head with a smile now on her face. Jaina Frost: I will make you bleed Sydney, I will introduce you to the Devils Dare and I will become that which you all have feared from the very beginning when Carey’s ignorance invited us here... Jaina Frost becomes (R) EVOLUTION WORLD CHAMPION! Jaina breaks out into a fit of laughter, which gets more and more sadistic while she leans into the camera and then we fade to black...

ANASTASIA STARLING vs. ANDERSON COBALT After two shows straight in which he suffered bizarre headaches that took him out of action, Anderson Cobalt was ready to get back in form and perform. Across from him was Anastasia Starling, fresh off a great match on PPV with Shinji Uchikawa where she came up just short. Both of them were in need of a win tonight, and both of them put on a performance that showed they were ready for it. From the moment the bell run the crowd couldn't take their eyes off of the two, as they sped around the ring like two bats out of Hell. Ana, showing how much times have changed, was immediately on the offense, bouncing off the ropes and coming at Cobalt with fire. Cobalt, to his credit, managed to avoid the most devestating of her attacks and took the others as well as one could hope to, and continued to chase after the speedy songbird, seeking the one chance to get his hands on her. When he did, the speed of the match suddenly died. Cobalt, smartly, began to work to keep Ana grounded, throwing her around with suplexes and at one point nailing an impressive lionsault that only got a 1 count. He made a mistake however, when he allowed Ana to get back to her feet so he could attempt to his his Desert Flat move on her, and was quite surprised when Ana actually pushed him off of her while he was in the middle of it leaving the so-called Ace landing on his face! Ana wasted no time in taking advantage of her stunned opponent, hitting the ropes and coming off to nail him with the Sturnidae! 3 seconds later and it was all over! Anastasia hopped on top of the turnbuckle in her excitement as the crowd cheered on her victory, happy to see the Songbird earn a victory. She hopped off the turnbuckle to find herself facing down Cobalt. But credit to Anderson who, despite the clear look of disappointment on his face, did offer a handshake to Anastasia before departing, the Songbird scaling another turnbuckle to continue celebrating with her growing fanbase. WINNER: ANASTASIA STARLING

CALEB STORM vs. ELIZABETH LANNISTER What was already to be an epic confrontation between arguably the two best competitors in the Second Class had taken on even more significance following the Lioness’ turn to REVOLUTION. Elizabeth Lannister looked fairly pleased as she walked down to the ring, though less so as Caleb Storm emerged from the back. He wore a slightly conflicted look on his face, as if wondering why Elizabeth had done what she had. Lannister attacked at the opening bell, taking advantage of Storm’s early hesitance to grab him by his hair and beale him to the mat! She picked Storm up, shooting him into the ropes and scoring with a picture perfect dropkick to the face. Elizabeth posed for a moment, smiling over the fallen Storm. When she went to go for the cover, though, laying back-first across Storm’s torso, Caleb hooked the arms, rolling her up with a lightning-fast crucifix for a near fall. Lannister came up hot, charging Storm for a bicycle kick, only for Caleb to dive roll beneath. Elizabeth turned around, right into Storm coming out of his handspring to deliver Chain Lightning! The cutter sent Lannister to the canvas, and rolling free of the ring to buy herself some time. Storm, though, seemed unwilling to give her any of that time. He charged for a suicide dive, only for Lannister to leap in the air, catching his head and driving both of her knees into his face on the way down with an impressive counter that had the crowd oohing and aahing. The Lioness immediately fired Storm back into the ring, and went for the cover. She only got two, as she critiqued the official’s count. Even so, though, Elizabeth was relentless. She picked Caleb back up and worked him over in the corner with quick kicks and forearm strikes. As Storm staggered back out of the corner to mid ring, she leaped, connecting with the Rains of Castamere! The leaping swinging DDT dropped Storm on his head, and got a long two for the newest REVOLUTION member. Lannister set Caleb up for the Lion’s Roar, but the resourceful (and recently married. Sorry, ladies!) Storm managed to counter, tucking and rolling, grabbing Elizabeth’s legs and sending her careening into the corner, where her face hit the top turnbuckle! As she grabbed the ropes to try and recover, Storm didn’t let her, charging in with a Yakuza kick to the back of the head! Lannister hit the buckle once more, and Storm dropped down with a schoolboy rolllup, getting a close, CLOSE two before Elizabeth managed to break free. Elizabeth’s troubles only increased as she struggled to her knees, only to get WAFFLED with the Thunderbolt by Storm! Caleb crawled for the cover, and got another two, Elizabeth saving herself by draping a boot over the top rope. Storm hammerlocked Elizabeth’s arm, setting her up for the Echo Smasher, but Lannister used her free arm to snapmare Caleb up and over to the mat. By the time he stood, she was already moving, spinning to deliver the reverse roundhouse kick she called the Kingslayer! It caught Storm on the temple and dropped him to the canvas. Wanting to ensure her victory, she hoisted Storm back up, and hooked him, snapping him to the canvas with the Debt Fulfilled to get the one, two, three, and win a very competitive battle between the two. The Japanese crowd applauded both competitors as Storm fought his way back up. He extended a hand to Elizabeth for a job well done, only for Lannister to snub him, her nose in the air as she walked out of the ring, both of her arms thrust in the air in victory, leaving Caleb to shake his head and wonder what might have been. WINNER: ELIZABETH LANNISTER We cut to backstage, where we see (R)EVolution's resident backstage correspondent Tom Matheny standing by. Next to him stands Anderson Cobalt, still dressed in his tights from his earlier match. Tom Matheny: Hello fans! I'm here with Mr. Anderson Cobalt, who requested some interview time. Before we get to that, let me just say that was a fantastic match you had with Anastasia Starling, even if you lost. Anderson Cobalt: Hell, I ain't bothered that I lost to her. Anyone can see it, she's been flying on a different level for a while now. Only thing a loss to her does is push me to get better. Because that's what an Ace does, he improves. Next time, things'll be different. But I ain't here to talk about that, alright. Ain't the time to talk about songbirds. I'm talking about snakes. He takes the microphone from Tom's hand and steps in front of him, forcing the camera to focus on his face. Anderson Cobalt: I'm talking about REVOLUTION. It's bad enough you're trying to push your evolve or die bullshit on the main roster. It's bad enough you beat down my, yeah I'm saying it don't fucking hug me, my friend Simon enough he can't even work tonight. But now you're trying to bring your garbage into my home. Well guess what? I'm not gonna let it get that far. I dunno if you've heard, but I'm the Ace of this place. You know what an Ace does? He makes sure no assholes are allowed to cause chaos in his promotion. You think you're gonna come in here, and run things? You think you're gonna come in and assault my friends? WRONG! Anderson Cobalt: There's not a person on this roster that likes you guys. So if you think you can come in and do anything, you'll find every person here standing ready to beat you back. And I'll be firm in the center, ready to keep you all away from this place. You know why that is? Because I'm the Ace, and protecting this place is what an Ace does! And, I'll be honest, it's also because I don't much like Elizabeth. She thinks she's royalty, the cream of the crop, the one who'll stand on top of this company. And that pisses me off. Anderson Cobalt: Because the only person who's going to stand on top of the pack in this place is me. It's a fated occurence, and I'm making sure it comes true. You guys wanna come in here, put yourself in the path, trying to take over? Nah. Next chance you get, take a listen to my entrance song. Remember the main line. I want it all. And I'm not gonna let some little revolution get in my way. He turns and pushes the microphone into Tom's chest, walking off afterwards. Tom Matheny: Strong words from Mr. Cobalt. Back to the ring.

CASSIDY CARTER vs. GRENDEL It was a match the two had been arguing for over Twitter for several weeks, and RW's resident matchmaker Darrin Stearns finally caved in and made the match happen! The Sister of Sin and REVOLUTION's personal monster were looking for a fight, which was given from the minute GRENDEL arrived. With Cassidy entering first, GRENDEL was blindsided and attacked by Carter, who used the element of surprise and the environment to help get a quick advantage. Once she had one half of the EXODUS Tag Team Champions in the ring, she utilized chokes and kicks to keep him grounded and did her best to ever get him kickstarted and back into things. However, a sidestepped dropkick put GRENDEL back into things, leading him to quickly roll back to his feet before nailing her with a lunging lariat that looked like it took Carter inside out! From this point, GRENDEL took over and used his size and strength to throw around Carter, proving that even he was capable of violence in the ways she had been hoping to deliver to him. Cassidy ducked a Face Full of Boot, only to nail a Fall from Grace! She looked ready to lock GRENDEL into the Faithbreaker, until the sound of a guitar riff came over the PA system and suddenly at the ringside area was Tom Higashikata! Armed with a microphone, the hyperactive hype man for the Based Empire was ready to talk. Tom Higashikata: YOOOOOOO WHAT'S UP (R)EVOLUTION!? The crowd responds with loud cheering, Tom nodding along. Tom Higashikata: I'M HAPPY TO SEE YOU TWO BUT NOT AS HAPPY AS WHAT I'M 'BOUT TO SAY MAKES ME! EY CASSIDY! I'MMA BET YA DIDN' EXPECT TO SEE MY ASS RIGHT NOW BUT 'EY I LOVE TO SURPRISE PEOPLE! I'M HOPIN' YOU CAN ACTUALLY READ BITCH CAUSE IF SO YOU'D HAVE SEEN SOME BIG NEWS! SOMETHIN' BIG HAPPENED IN THIS PLACE RECENTLY, YA? AN NOW! FUCKIN NOW IS THE MOMENT WE ALL BEEN WAITIN FOR! THE MOMENT YO FUCKED UP ASS GETS WHATS COMIN TO IT! He pauses a moment, letting the crowd get exceptionally hyped up by him. Tom Higashikata: AN' YA KNOW WHAT, THIS GOES THE SAME FOR THE BIG SACK OF FACEPAINTED SHIT YA WERE BORIN' US ALL AGAINST TOO, CAUSE FUCK YOU TOO BRUH! I GOT ONLY ONE QUESTION FOR YO BITCH ASSES! Tom accents this first by raising his middle finger to go along with one question, then jams the microphone straight into the air so the crowd can be picked up screaming the question along with what comes over the speakers. "TURN DOWN FOR WHAT?!" Instead of the music now known to belong to The Booze Brothers, the music kicked into "Breaking Skin" by Nonpoint, and marching right past his manager was "The Son of Disaster" himself, the Next Gen War Machine, Carey Dean! Armed with a crowbar and still in street clothes, Dean slid into the ring and didn't hesitate to club Carter directly over the head with it! Carey continues to start punching her in the face until GRENDEL gets up and tries to go after Carey...ONLY TO GET CLUBBED WITH THE CROWBAR HIMSELF! He waits for GRENDEL to get up...HEAD ON COLLISION! He gets right back up and he lets out a giant scream, looking like he's going to size up the both of them to be attacked! He waits, he waits....BUT EVE IS HERE?! She looks at him and grabs him by the head, pointing at them both before Carey sneers and leaves the ring, the crowd watching as Carey goes back to Tom and a now present Cailey Carter while "Breaking Skin" from Nonpoint plays. With GRENDEL and Carter down, Carey Dean sent a message that shows he's finally ready to meet Carter in the Trilogy of Attrition Darrin Stearns has prepared. NO CONTEST

As the show winds towards its two big matches, for the (R)W World Championship and the #1 Contendership for said title, it’s time for a quick interlude, in the form of a man coming off one of the more...trying nights of his career. Mr. Zinkus? Bring him on down, won’t you? David Zinkus: Please welcome at this time, Simon Raines! The man himself emerges from behind the curtain a few moments later. Wearing a short-sleeved red collared shirt and a pair of khakis, it’s an odd look for a guy who usually wears t-shirts and wrestling gear in the arena. Tonight, though, he’s not going to compete, so the wrestling trunks would have made him feel a bit silly. Simon slaps hands with some of the fans lining the aisleway, quickly rounding the ring to walk up the steps. Stepping into the ring, he briefly shakes hands with the ring announcer before David hands him the microphone, and takes leave of the ring. Simon Raines: Good evening, Maebashi. It’s been quite some time since I’ve had the honor to be here. I apologize for the English, but I’ve been asked to speak in one language tonight rather than two - they’re already concerned enough at the idea of me talking as it is. At ringside, a well-dressed Japanese man - presumably a translator, shoots Simon a thumbs up as he translates for the crowd. The Artist of War chuckles - a bit nervously. Taking a deep breath, he holds it in for a moment and finally blows it out, pacing around the ring a bit as he talks. Simon Raines: January 18, 2015 was Dead in Hollywood, EXODUS’s first internet Pay-Per-View of the new year. It doubled as one of the worst days of my life, and considering the life I’ve lived? That’s saying something. But every cloud has a silver lining. I’m not out here to talk about REVOLUTION. I’m not out here to make idle threats, or talk about my grand, glorious plan for vengeance - because honestly? I don’t have one. They did what they felt they had to do...my ex included. While I can’t say I appreciate the timing, choice of venue, or the methods used, I’m not going to let what happened at Dead in Hollywood define me. I will not go down in the history books as the guy Devan Whitmore broke up with in front of the world. I am better than that. At the very least, he certainly hoped that he was. Simon Raines: What I am out here to do, then, is to focus on that silver lining. To focus on the positives to come out of January 18th. There’s no better way to learn who your friends truly are, to learn who those people that really care are, than to see who comes and helps you when all the chips are down. In that sense? I’m a blessed man, because I have friends who came out and refused to let the REVOLUTION cripple me. I have friends who cheered me up in the next day and a half afterwards that included a trip to Las Vegas and the flight back to where I grew up - the Land of the Rising Sun. Simon Raines: I should start with Anna Giovanna, my friend and occasional training partner. I’ve trained with a lot of martial artists over the years, but she hits as hard as anyone, and she’s just getting started. She’s going to be scary, scary good very, very soon, and after two weeks ago? I’m glad she’s my friend and generally will be on my side unless we end up across the ring from one another. Thank you, Anna. For everything. If you ever need me, I’ll come running. A smile crosses his face as he nods. Exactly why is probably best left to Simon, Anna, and the potential story that EXODUS’ official fanfic writer may or may not be writing about it. Simon Raines: Then there’s my two best friends here. I don’t think it’s exactly a secret, given how often I chat with them on Twitter, and that a lot of you in attendance probably saw me hanging out with them before the show today at the ramen joint a block away from this building. Damon Alexander and Vivienne Robichaud are the two best friends anyone could have. They’ve been by my side since I’ve gotten here. I owe them both more than I can ever truly say, for a lot more than just saving me from a REVOLUTION. One day, the three of us are going to take EXODUS by...err, wait. Sorry, Caleb. The three of us are going to achieve big things on the main roster one day. There, that’s better! Simon manages to keep his composure in spite of the near-gaffe - perhaps he was improving at this “promo” thing. A little bit, at least. Simon Raines: Lastly, though...I have to thank a man who wasn’t a friend of mine. A man who came out to save me because he thought it was the right thing to do. He’s on the main roster right now, and I don’t think he’s backstage. I’ll just have to hope he sees this. Shinji Uchikawa...thank you. From the bottom of my heart. You didn’t have to come out that night. You barely knew me, if at all. But if not for you, Sentinel, I’m not here in your homeland and my adopted one telling this story. I know you’ve set yourself up for a long, hard road from here on out. I’ll be cheering you on, one-hundred percent. And maybe, just maybe, one day? I’ll be up there to help you out. It’s a nice thought, even if Simon more than anyone knows just how far away that day could potentially be. Simon Raines: As for me? I have a lot of work yet to do. I don’t have a win yet here in (R)evolution Wrestling, and that gnaws at me every day. I’m in the dojo working on new stuff, and I’m pleased to announce that the doctors are clearing me to start competing again as of (R)evolution Wrestling #21. I don’t know who my opponent or opponents are yet, but I can promise you that whoever I’m in the ring with will see a new Simon Raines. Everything works out for a reason, I think. Maybe I needed to come back home in order to get myself going in the right direction. We’ll find out. Thank you once again, everyone. I’ve taken up enough of your time. Simon steps out of the ring, handing the microphone back to David Zinkus as he goes. His walk up the aisle is slow but purposeful, and satisfied, having gotten to say a lot of things that he felt he needed to say. Besides, with Dead in Hollywood now a week in his rearview mirror, it could only get better from here. Right? NUMBER 1 CONTENDERSHIP TO THE (R)EVOLUTION WRESTLING WORLD TITLE DANIEL LANNING vs. OLIVER CREED Given both what was at stake in this match and the inconclusive nature of their last meeting, it's no surprise that these two came at each other hard straight from the bell ringing. Lanning went in clearly intending to beat Creed down but Creed, remembering what happened when he allowed Lanning to strike during their last match, spun around him and wrapped his arms around Lanning's head in a headlock. Lanning, likewise remembering what happened when he allowed Creed to get a hold on him, immediately backed into the corner, smashing him into it and forcing Creed to let go. They locked up from the front and immediately a test of strength erupted. They forced each other's arms full away from the other, their chests coming together, and that's when Creed took advantage of Lanning's focus being fully on him and kicked Lanning's leg out from under him! Lanning started to fall, but shocked Creed by grabbing him by the arm as he did, throwing Creed down with him! Lanning was fast to his feet, hitting the ropes and throwing the Deadshot kick at Creed, who ducked under and rolled him up for a 2 count! They locked up again, and Creed was quick to throw his weight back, belly to bellying Lanning down. He began to work Lanning over for several agonizing minutes, not allowing him to get to his feet. Lanning seemed out of it as Creed brought him back to his feet. He had his arms hooked, he spun him around to nail him with the Purgatory Lost...only for Lanning to spin out and nailed Creed with the Taskmaster! Creed crumpled to the mat and Lanning fell onto him, earning the 3 count and becoming the number 1 contender to the (R)Evolution Wrestling World Championship! Lanning rolled over onto his back and stared at the ceiling, smiling, as the crowd cheers his accomplishment. WINNER AND NEW NUMBER 1 CONTENDER: DANIEL LANNING

(R)EVOLUTION WRESTLING WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH JAINA FROST vs. SYDNEY CHRISTENSEN David Zinkus: This contest is scheduled for one fall, and it is for the (R)EVOLUTION WRESTLING WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP! Introducing first at this time! “Burn” by In The Moment hits over the P.A System as the crowd looks over at the entrance. A moment passes as the curtains part ways and slowly out walks the silver haired Jaina Frost. She looks out at the crowd surveying the lay of the land so to speak and smirks as she begins to walk towards the ring. David Zinkus:: Hailing from New York City, New York, she is the CHALLENGER, and one of the SISTERS OF SIN...Jaina FROST!!” The crowd’s reaction is typical as boo’s reign out, as the fans know all to much about the Frost family’s legacy in professional wrestling. But that only enamours Jaina as she casually walks up the steps and enters the ring via the middle rope before spinning into a corner and taking a seat as she waits for the bell. David Zinkus: And, her opponent! Suddenly, over the PA System, a voice. Keep the gun oiled, and the temple cleaned Shit, snort, and blaspheme Let the heads cool, and the engine run Because in the end, everything we do Is just everything we’ve done. Suddenly, the music for "The Future Is Now" by Starset explodes, and the crowd rises as the stage goes black save for a few tiny blue lights that look like stars! Suddenly, at the entrance, the brightest lights comes and in her long duster jacket...IS SYDNEY CHRISTENSEN! They said there was no way But they forgot the black hole in the sky Yesterday is nothing I have half a life to rewrite Flying into this future I will let the science bring the change This will be the final cure I am gonna take the past away... Sydney starts to make her way down the ramp, slapping a few hands along the way as the chorus begins, Tom Higashikata emerging from the back to accompany the RW World Champion. The look on "The North Star" says it all, and that's she's here to win! With a fist pump, she hops up onto the apron and steps into the ring before pointing her finger upward to a flare light going off above her, signaling the arrival of The North Star, all before she climbs the turnbuckles to get applause from the crowd! David Zinkus: Accompanied to the ring by the leader of the #BASEDEMPIRE, Tom Higashikata, she hails from Calgary, Alberta, Canada! She is the Revolution Wrestling World Champion, ladies and gentlemen, SYDNEY CHRISTENSEN! Sydney hands her title to the official, who raises it overhead. As the belt is handed off to the timekeeper, it’s time to get things under way. Minoru Asano: Here we go, everyone! It’s Christensen versus Frost, for all the marbles! *DING DING DING!*Champion and challenger circle one another, before leaning into a collar and elbow tieup. Christensen immediately segues it into a side headlock, cranking down for all she’s worth. Frost tries to push her off into the ropes, but Christensen cranks down harder, shaking her head in the process. Pond: Christensen has an immense technical edge here over Jaina. If she can press that edge, she’s going to walk out champion once again. Frost tries to pick Sydney up for a back suplex to get out of the hold, but Christensen shifts her weight to prevent even that. Sydney takes Jaina over with a side headlock takeover,and forces the Sister of Sin’s shoulders to the canvas. ONE! TWO! KICKOUT! A frustrated Jaina gets her shoulder up - and immediately goes to the eyes to break the basic hold. The official warns her, but Jaina simply rolls her eyes. Christensen is to her feet quickly, but Frost lights her chest up with a hard knife-edge chop. Sydney winces, but returns fire, the smack echoing throughout the arena. The pair exchange hard chops until Frost goes for the hair, using it to guide Sydney’s face down into her knee. Jaina follows up immediately, stomping away with vicious, well-aimed boots to the champ. Minoru Asano: I must admit to being surprised that Cassidy Carter is not out here with her fellow Sister of Sin tonight. Pond: You just know she’s in the back somewhere, though… Tom Higashikata leads the cheers for Sydney at ringside as Frost looks to press her advantage. Hooking a three-quarter facelock, Jaina walks up the turnbuckles to drive Sydney into the canvas with the Shiranui! She moves for the cover immediately, cinching the leg tight. ONE! TWO! KICKOUT! Minoru Asano: It’s going to take more than that to knock off Sydney Christensen! Frost picks Sydney up, trying to suplex the larger Christensen, but Sydney reverses, snapping Frost over with one of her own. She rolls through, using her strength to get Jaina back up, and executes a second snap suplex! Pond: She’s...going for another one! Sydney Christensen’s strength is limitless! As the North Star lifts Jaina back up once again, she elevates Frost for the suplex, HOLDING her in the air this time! Minoru Asano: Waterfall! I’m going to drink until Sydney puts her down! As Minoru goes to his hip flash, count along, won’t you? ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR! FIVE! SIX! SEVEN! EIGHT! NINE! TEN! After the count of ten, Sydney falls back with the suplex, and immediately floats over into the cover. Pond: All the blood rushed to Jaina’s head, just as all the alcohol rushed down Minoru’s throat! ONE! TWO! THR-KICKOUT BY JAINA! Minoru Asano: Mmm, that was quite a tasty manuever by Ms. Christensen! Credit to Jaina Frost, though, for being able to survive it! Pond: Sydney rolled those two snap suplexes into the Killing Time, and she’s got firm control of this bout. One on one, I think Sydney can take anyone in Revo! “One on one,” perhaps, being the operative word. Tom screams to Sydney, as Cassidy Carter makes her way down to ringside. Christensen sees her coming, and drags Frost away from the side of the ring where Carter seeks to make her presence felt. Minoru Asano: Smart there by Sydney! Even so, though, Cassidy’s presence is a distraction, allowing Frost to push Sydney back a step, and catch her with the Shadow Kick on the butt of the jaw! Pond: Sydney got caught! Frost with that savate kick! The Sister of Sin wastes no time quickly climbing to the top rope. With Cassidy cheering her on, she flies off the top, driving both of her feet into the chest cavity of the RW World Champion! Minoru Asano: DEVIL’S DARE! Pond: Just the appearance of Cassidy Carter has cost Sydney Christensen everything! Frost cinches both legs, rolling her weight over the champion’s shoulders. ONE! TWO! THR--NO! SHOULDER UP! Minoru Asano: SYDNEY SURVIVES! Jaina Frost is beside herself! Pond: She can’t believe it! She hit the Devil’s Dare, flush! Cassidy Carter is complaining at ringside, too! Carter jumps up on the ring apron. It’s then that the camera sees the pair of brass knuckles on her hand. As she tries to get them off, presumably to throw them to Jaina, Tom Higashikata snaps into action, grabbing hold of Cassidy’s leg and pulling her off the ring apron! Minoru Asano: I...wait! That...that just happened! Pond: Today, Tom Higashikata has become a man! Minoru Asano: Oh ho, that was a week or so ago, if rumors are any indication! Cassidy Carter is up immediately, staring daggers at Tom. He doesn’t hesitate, promptly BOOKING it for the guardrail, leaping it in one jump! Carter follows, chasing the manager of the #BasedEmpire up the stairs. Pond: If she catches him, she’s going to kill him! Minoru Asano: But she has to catch him! Jaina Frost looks on in astonishment as her ally chases Tom into the upper deck. With her distracted, Sydney sneaks up behind her, and scoops her up, hooking both of her arms in the process. Frost dangles upside down, and is promptly DROPPED on her head courtesy of the CANADIAN SUPREMACY! Pond: THAT’S ALL, FOLKS! Jaina Frost just got crowned by the champion of the world! The North Star crawls over, looking for the cover that will secure her championship. ONE! TWO! Minoru Asano: WHERE ARE WE? When the lights come back on, the UROBOROS is standing in the middle of the ring, with the referee unconscious, slumped against the ropes. Jaina Frost lays unconscious on the canvas, and Sydney looks up, only to see the monster there. She beckons for Sydney Christensen to bring it on. Sydney obliges, charging mara’s monstrous ally, only to be plucked out of the sky and spun around before being slammed into the canvas with the INFINITY DEATH! Moments later, the lights go out again, and when they return, the Uroboros is gone, and Jaina Frost is on top of the champion. Frost slowly stirs, groggily reaching out to hook the RW Champion’s leg. Minoru Asano: Frost...no! The referee’s coming around! Pond: This is ridiculous! Slowly, the official drags himself over to the pinning predicament. He raises one arm in the air, to begin the count. ONE! TWO! THREE! And with that, the greatest title reign in (R)evolution Wrestling history is over. *DING DING DING!*Minoru Asano: Jaina Frost is the new Revolution Wrestling Champion...but the story here has to be how! We all thought Cassidy Carter would play a role, and she did - but it’s...that monstrous Uroboros who was the deciding factor! Jaina Frost barely has the strength to roll off of Sydney Christensen as the official drapes the the RW World Championship belt over her. Her hand raised in the air, and only then is she truly aware as she begins to laugh, a high, horrific sound, thrusting the belt into the air from the flat of her back. It’s up to David Zinkus to make it official. David Zinkus: Your winner of this contest...and NEW (R)EVOLUTION WRESTLING WORLD CHAMPION...JAAAAIIINNAAA FROOOSSSTT! It’s on that image that we fade out for the evening -with both competitors exhausted, lying on their backs in the middle of the ring. The only true difference between the two? The RW title dangling triumphantly from Frost’s fist. Mere feet away is the former champion, Sydney Christensen. On a night with the odds stacked against her, it was not one of Jaina’s sisters, but rather one of mara’s twisted family, that caused the end of her reign. When she woke up, it was a good bet that the North Star would, in fact #reachforthedead. ...in an effort to the throttle the life from it. WINNER AND NEW (R)EVOLUTION WRESTLING WORLD CHAMPION: JAINA FROST
