Pretty well, a different take on the King of Fighters series that involves narrative style commentary on matchups, except with mild storylines, feuds and titles that are found in pro wrestling. Just doing something different than my usual creative writing, giving it a trial.
I don't expect a large amount of positive reviews, but regardless of whether the review is good or bad, please throw one my way after reading.
This document includes characters from SNK's King of Fighters series and ideas from WWE/TNA, thing swhich I obviously don't own. Characters are taken from the GBA adaptions, King of Fighters EX: Neo Blood and King of Fighters EX2: Howling Blood. Most of the results are through simulated matches on different King of Fighters games.

Night 1 Card

Athena vs Jun
Kensou vs Clark Steel - Round 1 SNK title tournament match
Shingo vs Benimaru Nikaido - Round 1 SNK title tournament match
Terry vs Geese - Round 1 SNK title tournament match
Kyo Kusanagi vs Choi
With the promise of a possible SNK title match looming in the distance, the overconfident Kyo took on the sly underdog Choi in a singles match for a spot in Round 2. Kyo as the bigger, stronger competitor got the upper hand quite quickly in the matchup with some body slams and fiery attacks, but Choi landed a devastating slice with his claw to gain the advantage. Choi's quick jabs and lightning fast dives and aerial combat made an impression that he was close to winning, but Kyo reversed a leaping attack with a boot to the face and finished off his opponent with his finishing move, the Major Serpent Wave to secure himself a spot in Round Two of the SNK title tournament.
Kyo def. Choi
Athena vs Jun
The stunning idol Athena made her appearance against the powerhouse Jun in Jun's debut match in KOF. Athena and Jun went toe to toe for a large portion of the match, with Athena's constant and strategic use of projectiles against Jun's evasive strategy and powerful counters. When it looked like Jun was getting ready to put Athena away with her finishing maneouvre, Athena dodged and took Jun out with the Shining Crystal Bit finishing move, leaving Jun unconscious on the floor of the arena. As Athena celebrated getting her first win this year in KOF, Miu appeared from behind and struck Athena down, brutally attacking her.
Athena def. Jun
Kensou vs Clark Steel
The Psycho Soldier Kensou brought on quite a challenge toward Clark Steel next. Kensou's awkward but powerful style mixed quite well with Clark's destructive grappling savvy. Kensou's recent lack of psychic powers began to let him down however, and Clark quickly took advantage with his Frankensteiner. Kensou seemed not to be able to get started with the offense again after that, and before long, Clark put Kensou away with his Super Argentine Backbreaker to secure his spot in Round Two of the SNK title tournament.
Clark def. Kensou
Shingo vs Benimaru Nikaido
The fourth match brought about the lovable Shingo versus the conceited Benimaru Nikaido. Benimaru was quick to assert himself by catching an airbourne Shingo with a Lightning Fist, bringing about the advantage with some quick kicks and a body slam. The match quickly became about Benimaru controlling Shingo with his repeated attacks, until Shingo shocked everyone by retaliating with a random finishing move, the Super Shoulder Block, to put Benimaru away for the win. Shingo was ecstatic when he realised he just moved on to Round 2 in the SNK title tournament.
Shingo def. Benimaru
Terry vs Geese
The final match of the card showed Terry go against his bitter Fatal Fury rival, Geese Howard. Although Terry is one of our strongest fighters in the whole KOF business, he simply must have been having a bad day, or Geese is just a display of pure dominance, but Geese defeated Terry cleanly in what was somewhat of a squash match to win his way into Round 2 of the SNK title tournament. However, Geese decided it wasn't enough, and began to stomp on an injured Terry, and finally left the arena.
Geese def. Terry
