BTWF One Night Stand: Legends Night

by EverlastingEvanescence

Once a year, BTWF pays tribute to the men and women who helped pave away for the Superstars of today. Whether in the doldrums of the 2000s of BTWF, or the beginning rise of the mid-late 90s, these Legends will be paid tribute to tonight while the wrestlers of today provide action with title matches, grudge matches, and much more.

1. BTWF Legends Night (Part 1)

BTWF One Night Stand: Legends' Night

The camera panned around the arena, where various banners with old BTWF Championships, such as the BTWF Light Heavyweight Championship, the original version of the BTWF Championship, and banners of legends, such as Sunny Bridges, Gildarts Clive, All Might, Cinder Falls, Arthur Morgan, etc. Pyro then shot out of the stage and the sides of the TitanTron as the camera panned to the announcers' table, with Mauro nodding and waving at the crowd.

"Hello ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to the BTWF Legends Night, where we pay tribute to the legends of the BTWF while showing off the future legends of today! From Silver Spring, Maryland, I'm Mauro Ranallo alongside the broadcast team of two BTWF Legends in their own right, former 5-time BTWF Women's Champion Cinder Falls and one of the top commentators of his day, Daffy Duck!" Mauro introduced as Cinder blew a kiss to the camera while Daffy winked at the camera.

"Of course, I'm here, Mauro! You think I'd miss the night where legends like myself get celebrated for all they've done for this company!?" Daffy asked as he looked on at the crowd cheering for him and simply raised both his hands up, causing them to cheer louder.

"We will hear from other legends as the night goes on, giving them time to talk about their accomplishments and what they think of the current crop of stars, but for right now, we have a triple threat match for the BTWF Cruiserweight Championship coming up right now!" Cinder exclaimed as 'Nightmares' by Conquer Divide played, causing the crowd to cheer loudly as Crona came running out of the back, looking up at the banner with the BTWF Light Heavyweight Championship before making it to the stage, and getting on one knee.

"The following contest is scheduled for one fall, and it is for the BTWF Cruiserweight Championship! Introducing the challengers first, from Death City, Nevada, Crona Gorgon!" Tony Chimel announced as the crowd continued cheering as Crona jumped up to his feet as pyro shot up from behind him. Crona walked down the entranceway, high-fiving fans along the way, telling fans that he was winning back his BTWF Cruiserweight Championship tonight. Crona, after giving a hi-five to a kid fan in the front row, Crona rolled to the end of the entranceway, kipping back up to his feet once again.

"Crona showing his respect to the Cruiserweights of the past, back when they were Light Heavyweights by pointing to the predecessor of the BTWF Cruiserweight Championship; the BTWF Light Heavyweight Championship!" Mauro exclaimed as Crona jumped up onto the steel steps, encouraging the crowd to keep cheering as Crona ran up the steel steps, and jumped up to the top turnbuckle. Crona then turned around, winked at the crowd with a smile, and backflipped into the middle of the ring.

"Many amazing wrestlers in the BTWF Hall of Fame, like 'White Pantera' Rodolfo Rivera, Intensity General Manager Sunny Bridges, and Shaggy Rodgers have held that championship, and really introduced a more high-flying style to the BTWF audience!" Daffy elaborated as Crona went into the corner, motioning around his waist to once again tell the crowd that he was going to become BTWF Cruiserweight Champion again. While he was doing this, Crona nodded at the stage, as 'I Bring the Darkness' by Tommy Vext played, with the crowd continuing to cheer as Kuro came stomping out of the back.

"And his opponent, from Tokyo Japan, Kuro Sakuragawa!" Tony Chimel announced as the crowd continued cheering as Kuro continued making his way to the ring, cracking his knuckles and his eyes glaring a hole through the ring. Kuro then looked back at Crona and nodded at him in respect, but the stoic look on his face told Crona that it didn't matter that he liked and respected Crona; Kuro was still after the BTWF Cruiserweight Championship and would go through Crona if needed.

"While Kuro may not be a high-flyer, he is one of the fastest technical wrestlers I've seen, which is another thing the aforementioned Light Heavyweights brought to the BTWF!" Cinder exclaimed as Kuro walked up the steel steps, stopped on the top of the steel steps, and cricked his neck while cracking his knuckles. Kuro jumped over the top rope, and walked over to the middle of the ring, slowly raising one fist in the air as the crowd continued cheering. Kuro once again looked back at Crona, not saying anything before nodding at Crona and walking to another corner of the ring.

"And from the look on his face, Kuro looks like it doesn't matter if he beats Kazuma or Crona; as long as he's BTWF Cruiserweight Champion, he doesn't care!" Mauro exclaimed as 'Fresh' by Artist vs. Poet played, causing the crowd's cheers to finally turn into loud boos as Kazuma came out of the back with Darkness and Megumin in his arms. Megumin then knelt down to start polishing the BTWF Cruiserweight Championship with her wrist as Kazuma took off his jacket, showing off his body and title.

"And introducing the champion, accompanied to the ring by Megumin and Darkness, from Tokyo Japan, he is the BTWF Cruiserweight Champion, Kazuma Sato!" Tony Chimel announced as Kazuma walked down to the ring, with Darkness and Megumin continuing to hold onto his arms. The crowd continued booing as Kazuma told the fans to shut up and that he was better than any of the has-beens that this show was trying to celebrate. Kazuma and his girls made it to the end of the entranceway, gave them both kisses on the cheek, and let them take off his jacket and his BTWF Cruiserweight Championship.

"Kazuma seems to not be sweating this triple threat match, probably still on a high that he eliminated Crona from the Battle Riot a couple of nights ago," Cinder explained as Kazuma walked up the steel steps, jumped into the ring from over the top rope, and told the referee that Megumin was going to keep the championship since he wasn't going to lose it. The referee accepted this, made sure all three men were ready, and then told the timekeeper to ring the bell to start the match.

"And this triple threat match is underway with Kazuma already trying to escape the ring!" Mauro exclaimed as Kazuma attempted to go back outside, but Kuro grabbed the back of Kazuma's tights, turned him around, and hit him with multiple forearms to the side of the head. Kuro looked over at Crona, shrugged, and threw Kazuma into Crona, who knocked Kazuma down with a Snap Frankensteiner. Crona and Kuro then started stomping all over Kazuma, causing the crowd to cheer loudly as Crona ran the ropes, and hit a Rolling Thunder Splash onto Kazuma's chest.

"Well, Kuro and Crona aren't gonna let the man who screwed them out of the BTWF Cruiserweight Championship off the hook!" Mauro exclaimed as Kuro hit a couple of Jumping Knee Drops onto Kazuma's head before running the ropes, and hitting him with a Jumping Pinpoint Elbow to the top of the head. Kuro then kept Kazuma in a seated position by his hair, allowing Crona to run the ropes, and hit Kazuma with a Running Basement Dropkick to the face. Kazuma attempted to roll out of the ring, but Crona grabbed Kazuma's legs and attempted to pull him back into the center of the ring, but Kazuma kicked Crona in the leg a couple of times. Kazuma pulled himself back to his feet, before hitting Crona with a couple of Knife-Edge Chops to the chest.

"Kazuma trying to fight back with some hard Knife-Edge Chops!" Cinder exclaimed, but the crowd went back to cheering as Kuro ran at Kazuma with a Running Forearm to the face. The crowd continued cheering as Kuro grabbed Kazuma by the hair, and hit him with a Snap Suplex, and Crona responded with a Jumping Double Foot Stomp. Kuro responded to this by running the ropes and hitting Crona in the chest with a Running Penalty Kick.

"Well, that didn't last long. And you can't really blame Kazuma either when his opponents seem determined to work together against him!" Daffy exclaimed as Crona picked Kazuma up, and threw him into the corner. Crona ran into the corner and hit him with a Running Back Elbow to the side of the head, but when Crona attempted to hit a CCS Enziguri, Kazuma was able to duck, dodge an oncoming Kuro, and hit Kuro with a kick to the gut. The crowd continued booing as Kazuma grabbed Kuro, and threw him out of the ring before running at Crona and stomping on his gut.

"Well, Kazuma definitely had all of this coming, but it looks like he's finally going to get some momentum in this match!" Mauro countered as Kazuma threw Crona into the corner, and continued stomping on him until he fell to the bottom turnbuckle in a seated position. Kazuma began choking Crona with his boot before Kuro grabbed Kazuma's leg, dragged him out of the ring, and the crowd cheered as Kuro knocked Kazuma down with a hard Knife-Edge Chop. Kuro then rolled back into the ring and attempted to hit Crona with a Clothesline, but Crona bent backwards to dodge it, put himself in a headstand, grabbed Kuro's arms with his legs, and rolled Kuro up with a pin.

Ref: 1…

"A unique pin by Crona that even I've never seen before, but Kuro able to kick out fairly early!" Cinder exclaimed as Kuro attempted to hit Crona with a Knife-Edge Chop, but Crona dodged the move and hit several kicks to the sides of Kuro's legs. The crowd continued cheering as Crona threw Kuro into the corner, and attempted to hit him with a Running Single Leg Corner Dropkick, but Kuro was able to grab Crona's leg, push him down to the ground, and turned him around in an attempt to lock him in an Ankle Lock. Crona was able to keep himself on his back to prevent the pressure of the Ankle Lock, but Kuro responded by kneeling down and attempting to lock Crona in an STF.

"Kuro attempting to slow Crona down with some submission holds, and we've seen what Kuro can do once he's had those submission holds locked in!" Daffy exclaimed as Crona was able to roll himself into the corner, using the turnbuckles to pull him away from the hold, and kicked Kuro in the gut a couple of times before pushing him away, running the ropes, and hitting Kuro with a Sling Blade. The crowd continued cheering as Crona put Kuro in a seated position, kicked him in the back, a Jumping Dropkick to the back of the head, and when he noticed Kazuma trying to pull himself back up onto the apron, Crona ran at Kazuma and knocked him off of the apron with a Rolling Wheel Kick.

"Nice kick by Crona, smartly keeping the BTWF Cruiserweight Champion out of the ring!" Mauro exclaimed as Crona attempted to hit another Running Dropkick onto Kuro, but Kuro was able to dodge out of the way, grab Kazuma's arm, and roll him up with an Oklahoma Roll.

Ref: 1…2

Crona kicked out and attempted to hit Kuro with a kick to the side of the head, but Kuro dodged and hit Crona with a forearm hard enough to send Crona falling to his knees.

"What a strike by Kuro! We talk about Kuro's impressive technical skills, but he has strikes that can knock your teeth out!" Daffy exclaimed as Kuro picked Crona up, and hit him with a Snap Vertical Suplex before hitting him with a Leg Drop across the throat. Kuro then picked Crona up, and put him into the corner, hitting him with several Forearms to the side of the head before running the ropes, and hitting Crona with a Running Knife-Edge Chop to the chest. Kuro then put Crona on the top rope and hit him with multiple punches to the side of the head before putting himself on the middle rope. Kuro attempted to put Crona in position for a Superplex, but Crona started punching Kuro in the gut several times before sending him back to the canvas with a punch right to the head.

"Crona able to escape possible danger, and I have to say, I honestly hate how much I'm giving that witch Medusa's son so much credit," Cinder admitted as when Kuro staggered back to his feet, Crona dived off of the top rope with a Diving Hurricanrana. The crowd continued cheering as Crona hit a 450 Double Knee Drop onto Kuro before hitting him with a Standing Moonsault. However, before Crona could do anything else, Kazuma ran into the ring and hit Crona in the back of the head with a Double Ax Handle. The crowd continued booing as Kazuma started stomping on Kuro before picking him up, and throwing him into the corner ring post arm first with enough force to send Kuro falling out of the ring.

"And here comes the BTWF Cruiserweight Champion! Kazuma's showing his ring awareness by taking Crona down when he was focused on another opponent!" Daffy exclaimed as Crona attempted to run into the corner with a Jumping Clothesline, but Kazuma was able to dodge, sending Crona's head bouncing off of the top turnbuckle. Kazuma then grabbed Crona in a Waistlock and hit him with a German Suplex before bridging into a pinfall.

Ref: 1…2

Kazuma responded to Crona kicking out by grabbing Crona's hair, and hitting him with multiple punches to the side of the head before throwing him back first into the corner. The crowd continued booing as Kazuma stomped on Crona's gut multiple times before sending him down with a Snapmare. Kazuma then jumped onto the middle rope and hit a Diving Middle Rope Back Elbow to the back of Crona's head.

"Kazuma now dominating Crona, the same man he beat to win the BTWF Cruiserweight Championship," Cinder noted as Kazuma stomped on Crona's face a couple of times before running the ropes and hitting a Jumping Stomp on the top of Crona's face. The crowd continued booing as Kazuma hit a Running Baseball Slide onto Kuro as he tried to roll back into the ring, and then Kazuma turned around to hit another Baseball Slide Dropkick onto Crona's back. Crona attempted to roll to the ropes, but Kazuma dragged Crona back to the center of the ring and hit her with a Jumping Senton before going for the pin.

Ref: 1…2.

"Crona kicking out of that Senton to the chest, and Kazuma has a hand wrapped around Crona's wrist, making sure to keep Crona from moving away from him!" Mauro exclaimed as Kazuma picked Crona up, and hit him with a Scoop Slam. The crowd continued booing as Crona pointed up to the sky, climbed up to the top rope, and balanced himself on the top turnbuckle before attempting to hit Crona with a Diving Elbow Drop. However, Kuro ran back into the ring, springboarded onto the top turnbuckle, and put Kazuma in position for a Superplex, causing the crowd to cheer.

"Kuro coming out of nowhere! He has Kazuma in position for the Superplex already!" Cinder exclaimed. Kazuma and Kuro started exchanging punches with each other, but Kazuma won the brawl with a poke to the eye. The crowd continued booing as Kazuma put Kuro in a Superplex position of his own, and hit Kuro with a Top Rope Gourdbuster, sending Kuro crashing into Crona's chest. Kazuma balanced himself back on the top rope and hit a Diving Elbow Drop onto Kuro's back. Kazuma then threw Kuro to another side of the ring before climbing up to another side of the ring, and when he got to the top turnbuckle, hit another Diving Elbow Drop onto Crona's chest, before going for the pin.

Ref: 1…2..

Kazuma glared at the referee before running over to Kuro, and pinning him as well, hooking both of his legs back.

Ref: 1…2..

"Kazuma has to be frustrated now, as his signature Diving Elbow Drop failed to put away both of his opponents!" Daffy exclaimed as Kazuma kicked the bottom rope in frustration before picking Kuro up, and attempting to hit him with another Snap Vertical Suplex, but Kuro was able to land on his feet. The crowd cheered as Kuro attempted to hit him with a German Suplex, but Kazuma was able to land on his feet, but Crona was able to pick himself up, and hit Kazuma with a Reverse Frankensteiner, causing the crowd to explode. Crona dodged Kuro's Clothesline attempt as Kazuma rolled onto the apron, and responded by hitting Kuro with two Clotheslines, a Jumping Roundhouse Kick, a Sit-Out Hip Toss, and then jumped on Kuro with a Twisting Shooting Star Press.

"Crona coming back into the match, and the crowd is loving it as he sends both Kuro and Kazuma down!" Mauro exclaimed as Crona waited for Kuro to get up, and attempted to hit Kuro with a Superkick, but Kuro was able to grab Crona's legs, picked him up, and hit Crona with an Alabama Slam. The crowd continued cheering as Kuro grabbed both of Crona's legs, and attempted to lock him in the Texas Cloverleaf, but Crona was able to push Kuro into the ropes, and Crona attempted to hit a Running Clothesline, but Kuro was able to counter with a Snap Powerslam before rolling him into a pin, hooking both of his legs back.

Ref: 1…2..

"Damn! That was such a blur I almost didn't see it, but Kuro almost got the pinfall and the title there with that Snap Powerslam!" Cinder exclaimed as Kuro picked Crona up, and attempted to hit him in a Rear Naked Choke, but Crona was able to fight out of the move with a Jawbreaker. Crona took a moment to catch his breath before springboarding off of the middle rope, and hit Kuro with a Springboard Middle Rope Moonsault. Kazuma got back on his feet on the apron, and when Crona saw this, he ran at Kazuma, attempting to hit a Springboard Triangle Dropkick, but Kazuma countered by hotshotting Crona's throat into the top rope.

"Kazuma with a clever counter, sending Crona's throat crashing into the top rope!" Mauro exclaimed as Kazuma springboarded back into the ring, rolling Crona up with a Sunset Flip.

Ref: 1…2..

Kuro broke up the pinfall with a Running Dropkick to the side of Kazuma's head. The crowd cheered as Kuro picked Kazuma up, and hit him with multiple forearms to the side of the head, and when Kazuma attempted to fight back with punches, Kuro grabbed both of Crona's arms, and hit him with a Northern Lights Suplex, but rather than bridging into a pin, Kuro got back to his feet, pulled Crona up, and hit him with a Gourdbuster.

"Kuro showing off some strength, almost deadlifting Crona up onto position for the Gourdbuster!" Cinder exclaimed as Kuro got up and attempted to lock her in the Texas Cloverleaf, the crowd booed as Kazuma dived off of the top rope and hit Kuro with a Diving Bulldog from the top rope before pinning Kuro with both legs hooked up.

Ref: 1…2..

Kazuma looked shocked as the referee told him that it was a two-count, and Kazuma responded by picking Kuro up and hitting him with a Teardrop Suplex. The crowd continued booing as Kazuma picked Crona up, and hit him with a couple of Knife-Edge Chops to the chest before attempting to hit him with a Scoop Slam, but Crona was able to escape it. Crona attempted to hit another Reverse Hurricanrana, but Kazuma was able to grab a hold of Crona's legs and hit him with a Reverse Alabama Slam. The crowd continued booing as Kazuma ran the ropes and hit a Double Foot Stomp on Crona's back.

"Kazuma coming back into the match, able to take both of his challengers down!" Daffy exclaimed as Kazuma grabbed Crona by the hair, and slammed his head a couple of times in the top turnbuckle before putting him on the top turnbuckle while Kuro started staggering back to his feet. Kazuma punched Crona in the side of the head and attempted to put him in position for the Superplex, but Crona hit multiple punches to the chest and the gut and was able to stun Kazuma with a Bell Clap to the sides of his ears. With Kazuma stunned, Crona stood up on the top turnbuckle, grabbed Kazuma by the hair, and hit him with a Top Rope Reverse Hurricanrana, causing the crowd to explode.

"Oh my God! What a move by Crona, sending Kazuma's head crashing into the canvas from the top rope!" Mauro yelled out in shock as when Crona got back to his feet, Kuro attempted to grab Crona with a Waistlock and attempted to hit Crona with a German Suplex. The crowd kept cheering as Crona started hitting Kuro in the side of the head several times with a Back Elbow, and Crona springboarded onto the middle rope, but Kuro responded by jumping up onto the middle rope and hitting a Middle Rope German Suplex. The crowd exploded as Kuro bridged into a pin, pushing Crona's legs back as much as he could with his legs.

Ref: 1…2..

"I have no idea how Crona kicked out after that Middle Rope German Suplex, but this resiliency is definitely something that Medusa taught him, the stupid witch," Cinder exclaimed, mumbling that last part, as Kuro pounded the mat once in frustration before running his hand through his hair, picked himself and Crona up by his hair, and attempted to put him in position for the Fairytale Ending. However, the crowd booed as Kazuma hit Kuro with a Jumping Clothesline, but when Kuro was knocked down, Crona bridged into a Jackknife pin onto Kuro.

Ref: 1…2..

Kazuma kicked Crona in the chest to break up the pin, before Kazuma mounted Crona's back, and started punching and forearming him in the back of the head. Kazuma yelled at the booing crowd, telling them that Crona was nothing but a loser who got lucky until he faced Crona. Kazuma then grabbed Crona by the hair and attempted to him with a Teardrop Suplex, but Crona elbowed Kazuma in the back of the neck multiple times before attempting to hit Kazuma with a Snap Vertical Suplex, but Kazuma kneed Crona in the gut a couple of times before attempting to hit him with the DDT. However, Crona was able to hit Kazuma with a Northern Lights Suplex, pinning him.

Ref: 1…2..

"And Kuro breaking up the pin, hitting a Knee Drop into Crona's back!" Daffy exclaimed as Kuro grabbed Kazuma, kicked him in the gut, and hit him with a Snap Powerbomb. The crowd continued cheering as Kuro kicked Kazuma out of the ring before grabbing Crona by the leg. However, Crona kicked Kuro in the side of his face, before kipping back to his feet and hitting Kuro with a Stunner with enough force to send him staggering into the corner. The crowd cheered as Crona cricked his back before telling the crowd that the title was coming back to him before Crona hit Kuro with a Spinning Corner Heel Kick.

"What a move by Crona, nearly sending his foot crashing into Kuro's mouth!" Cinder exclaimed as Crona grabbed Kuro in a Front Facelock, and attempted to hit him with a Tornado DDT, but Kuro threw Crona away, sending him falling chest and face first. Kuro then ran the ropes and hit a Running Discus Forearm to the side of Crona's head before grabbing both of his legs for the Texas Cloverleaf. However, the crowd exploded into boos as Kazuma ran into the ring with the BTWF Cruiserweight Championship in his hands, and decked Kuro in the back of the head with the title belt.

"Kazuma using the Cruiserweight Championship as a weapon, and there has to be something symbolic about the championship coming into play here!" Mauro exclaimed as Kazuma continued hitting both Kuro and Crona in the back and chest with the championship. Kazuma gave the championship belt back to Megumin before throwing Crona out of the ring and went into the corner to prepare for Kuro to get back to his feet. When Kuro staggered back to his feet while holding his neck, Kazuma ran at Kuro and hit him with the Kazuma Kick (Running Machika Kick) to the side of the head before going for the pinfall while Crona was trying to pull himself back into the ring.

Ref: 1…2…3

*Bell Rings*

"Here is your winner, and still the BTWF Cruiserweight Champion, Kazuma Sato!" Tony Chimel announced as Kazuma rolled out of the ring, holding his back in pain as Megumin put the BTWF Cruiserweight Championship around his waist. Crona, meanwhile, looked at Kazuma celebrating his victory and pounded on the mat in frustration before trying to pick himself up while Megumin finished putting the title on Kazuma's waist, and kissing him on the cheek in celebration.

"Kazuma retaining the championship in a hard-fought contest, once again using his ring savvy to get the victory!" Cinder exclaimed as Kuro held the side of his face in pain as Crona rolled out of the ring with a sigh. As Crona was running his hands through his pink hair in annoyance, Kazuma walked towards the back with Megumin and Darkness in his arms and started laughing at Crona, calling him nothing but a loser. Crona glared at Kazuma and told him that his luck would run out one of these days.

"Crona doesn't seem like he's done with Kazuma yet, but Kazuma's appearing to not even take Crona's anger seriously," Daffy noted as Kuro grabbed the middle rope, and pulled himself back to his feet while Crona and Kazuma continued talking with each other on the ringside area. Kazuma responded to Crona telling him that he was going to get his BTWF Cruiserweight Championship back by slapping him in the side of the head before walking to the back with Megumin and Darkness.

"Kazuma may come to regret that slap, but he's on such a high right now that you can understand why he's confident enough to slap him!" Mauro exclaimed as Crona put a hand over his red cheek, trembling with anger as Kuro rolled out of the ring. Crona stomped to the back while holding his cheek, ignoring the fans cheering him on as Kuro followed him to the back, looking disappointed in himself for not winning as the camera panned to the back, with former BTWF Light Heavyweight Champion Shaggy Rodgers standing next to Scott Stanford.

"An excellent way to start Legends' Night, and speaking of legends, I'm here with former 3 time Light Heavyweight Champion, Shaggy Rodgers. Shaggy, I wanted to get your thoughts on the match we just saw," Scott explained as he put the microphone under Shaggy's mouth, who nodded before responding.

"Like, I thought it was great. My personal favorite in the match was Crona Gorgon. He honestly reminds me a lot of when I was a young wrestler, and I was able to hit some of the moves that Crona hit," Shaggy explained as Scott nodded before taking the microphone back.

"Crona made it clear after the match that he wasn't finished with Kazuma and wanted to get the BTWF Cruiserweight Championship back. Do you think he can do it after coming up short twice?" Scott asked as Shaggy nodded before grabbing the microphone to explain himself.

"From what I've seen of Kazuma's title reign so far, he's needed some underhanded tactics to keep the championship. So…I feel like Crona does have a chance if he can get Kazuma in an official one-on-one rematch. It won't be easy, because Kazuma's a clever wrestler, but if there's anyone right now who I think can do it, it's Crona," Shaggy explained as Scott nodded and took the microphone back from underneath Shaggy's mouth.

"A ringing endorsement for Crona by one of the biggest Light Heavyweights in BTWF history. But one more question; do you have any advice for Crona regarding a future championship match?" Scott asked. Shaggy once again nodded before grabbing the microphone and once again responding.

"All I have to tell Crona is to keep his head on a swivel. Focusing on your opponent is great, but your environment is also something you should keep an eye on when you're in the ring, especially in a championship match," Shaggy explained before nodding at Scott, giving him the microphone back, and walking away. The camera then panned to the stage, where 'I Don't Care Anymore' by American Fangs played, causing the crowd to boo as Floch came out of the back with his usual dress suit on his back, but his usual confident smirk was replaced with an annoyed frown.

"The following contest is scheduled for one fall! Approaching the ring, from Wall Rose on Paradis Island, Floch Forster!" Tony Chimel announced as Floch knelt down, and looked at the ground for a moment before jumping back to his feet, throwing the dress suit off of his back. The crowd continued booing as Floch marched to the ring, simply glaring at fans that were booing him rather than laughing or arguing with them like usual.

"Floch is looking pissed tonight, and you can't blame him after Connie cost him his chance in the Battle Riot," Daffy explained as Floch stopped at the ringside area, looked at the ring, and then at one of the floor cameras. The crowd continued booing as Floch walked over to the floor camera, and told the fans at home that he had exposed Connie for the angry and bitter man he really is, and destroyed the mask of positivity that he put on. Floch continued by saying that Connie was also going to learn regret, as he was going to regret costing Floch the Battle Riot.

"Well, it's hard for me personally to feel sympathy for Floch when he brought all of this onto himself by attacking Connie for no good reason after defeating him on an episode of Intensity!" Mauro responded as Floch grabbed the bottom rope, and pulled himself up onto the apron. Floch then gave the fans one last steely glare before walking into the ring through the middle rope and walking into the corner. Floch began stretching in the corner, and the crowd began cheering loudly as Enzo Amore's 'SAWFT as a Sin' played. Connie came running out of the back, with a smirk on his face and a microphone in his right hand.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I am here, and I am ready! We have all the legends in the back, so Floch, you're gonna have to accept the legendary ass-kicking I'm about to give you!" Connie exclaimed as the crowd continued cheering as Connie high-fived several fans in the front row before briefly stretching his right arm.

"And yeah, but arm may not be 100%, but if a couple of days ago at the Battle Riot was anything to go by, I still got enough power in my right arm to whoop Floch in and out of the ring!" Connie exclaimed as he flexed his right arm, which still had athletic tape wrapped around it. Connie then stopped at the ringside area, pointed to some cheering fans, and then ran up the steel steps, jumped over the top rope, and pointed at the referee.

"Ref, catch this mic because Floch is about to catch these hands!" Connie exclaimed before throwing the microphone at the referee, and when the referee caught it, Connie hit Floch with a punch hard enough to send him falling on his ass. The referee handed the microphone to the ringside attendant before telling the timekeeper to ring the bell, and when the bell rang, Connie jumped onto a still downed Floch and started punching him in the side of the head and the face. Floch pushed Connie off of him, and kicked him in the gut, causing the crowd to boo before picking Connie back up, and attempting to punch him, but Connie was able to block the punch and hit Floch in the face with several punches of his own.

"Connie starting this match off hot, trying to break Floch's nose with some hard punches here!" Mauro exclaimed as Connie pushed Floch into the corner, and continued punching Floch in the face and the back of the neck. Floch responded by pushing Connie and himself out of the corner, and tackled him to the ground, causing the crowd to boo as he started punching Connie in the side of the head before attempting to grab Connie's damaged arm. Connie responded by kicking Floch in the gut and the right leg before picking himself back up and continued clubbing Floch in the back, which Floch responded to by throwing Connie into the corner and ramming his shoulder into Connie's gut multiple times with Shoulder Thrusts.

"This match is quickly devolving into a hockey fight, which, fun fact, is the best part of hockey!" Daffy exclaimed as Connie attempted to keep clubbing Floch in the back, but Floch was able to hit Connie with several punches to the side of the head before choking him with his foot. The referee pulled Floch out of the corner, but Floch was able to kick Connie in the gut a couple of times before grabbing him and Irish whipping him out of the corner. However, Connie was able to jump onto the middle turnbuckle, and when Floch saw this and attempted to take Connie down, Connie dived off of the middle turnbuckle with a Diving Middle Rope Clothesline.

"And even the best part of hockey can't compete with pro wrestling, because how many times have you seen a hockey player dive onto their opponent!?" Cinder responded as Connie grabbed Floch by the hair, and kicked him a couple of times in the back before hitting him with a Discus Punch to the side of the head. The crowd continued cheering as Connie mounted Floch, and started punching him in the side of the head before the referee pulled Connie off of Floch. Floch was able to roll away from Connie and towards the ropes, but Connie grabbed Floch and pushed him into the ropes. However, Floch headbutted Connie in the gut, and pushed him into the ropes, punching him multiple times in the gut before the referee pulled him away.

"Floch, for someone with a big mouth and an even bigger ego, is able to hold his own against Connie in this brawl!" Mauro exclaimed as Floch ran at Connie, attempting to hit him with a Clothesline, but Connie was able to throw Floch over the top rope and onto the floor. Connie clapped to get the crowd even more into the match and started jumping in place when he noticed Floch getting up. The crowd cheered louder as Connie ran the ropes, and hit a Suicide Dive through the middle rope, sending Floch's back crashing into the announcers' table. Connie grabbed Floch by the hair and started punching him in the head again.

"Connie might have a broken hand with all the punches that he's given Floch!" Daffy exclaimed as Connie picked Floch up, and attempted to smash his face into the top of the announcers' table. However, Floch was able to block Connie's attempt, grabbed Connie by the hair, and attempted to smash Connie's head into the announcers' table, but Connie was also able to block it, punch Floch in the gut several times, and is finally able to smash Floch's face into the announcers' table multiple times, sending Floch staggering near the ring apron.

"Floch could've had his nose broken from those shots on our announcers' table!" Cinder exclaimed as Connie attempted to run at a stunned Floch with a Running Stinger Splash, but Floch was able to catch Connie and hit him with a Spinebuster that sent his back crashing into the steel ring apron. The crowd booed as Connie fell to the ground, holding his back, which Floch responded to by stomping Connie in the back while telling the fans that Connie was just bringing himself more pain before grabbing Connie's damaged arm.

Ref: …4…5

"Connie's damaged arm may come into play here, and with an already damaged back, Connie could be done here already!" Cinder exclaimed as Floch smashed Connie's arm onto the steel ring apron several times before putting Connie's arm in between the steel holders of the steel ring apron. The crowd continued booing as Floch pulled on Connie's arm, causing him to yell in pain as Floch started kicking the elbow and wrist. Floch then pulled on Connie's arm hard enough to send the side of Connie's head crashing into the steel ring post. The crowd continued booing as Floch pulled Connie away from the ring apron, and hit him with a Back Suplex that sent Connie's back crashing into the steel ring post.

Ref: …6…7…8

Floch rolled back into the ring, and then almost immediately rolled out of the ring to continue his attack on Connie with a Sliding Elbow Drop to the small of Connie's back.

"Some clever strategy by Floch, breaking up the count so that he can do some more damage to Connie on the outside!" Mauro exclaimed as Floch picked Connie up, and started hitting him with several Knife-Edge Chops to the chest before putting Connie's right arm in a Hammerlock, and throwing him into the steel ring post arm first. Connie attempted to right back with several punches to the side of Floch's head, but Floch grabbed Connie's right arm, put it back into a Hammerlock, and pushed him into the steel ring post back first, sending his arm crashing once again into the steel.

Ref: 1…2…3

"Floch using the steel ring post on Connie's already hurt arm, and this is the anger of being humiliated at the Battle Riot coming out!" Daffy exclaimed as Floch threw Connie back into the ring. The crowd booed as Floch flipped them off, rolling into the ring, grabbed Connie's arm, and hit several Elbow Drops to the back of Connie's arm. Floch then grabbed Connie by the hair, and threw him into the corner, causing the crowd to boo louder as Floch put Connie's arm into the ropes, and pulled on Connie's arm until the referee pulled him away. Floch responded by running at Connie, hitting a Running Clothesline onto Connie before taking him down with a Saito Suplex.

"Ow! What a hard suplex by Floch, sending Connie crashing on his neck and shoulder!" Cinder exclaimed while wincing as Floch ran the ropes and hit a Jumping Elbow Drop to Connie's back. Connie attempted to get back on his feet, but Floch grabbed Connie's damaged arm, put him in a Pumphandle position, and hit Connie with a Pumphandle Backbreaker. However, rather than let go, Floch kept Connie in the Pumphandle position and hit Connie with a Pumphandle Slam. The crowd continued booing and chanting for Connie as Floch put Connie in a seated position before running the ropes and hitting Connie in the face with a Big Boot.

"Floch has a lot more power moves in his arsenal than a lot of the other Cruiserweights, showing it off by slamming Connie with some Pumphandle Slams!" Mauro exclaimed as Floch hit Connie in the throat with a Jumping Leg Drop before going for the pinfall, hooking both of his legs back while pressing his right arm back.

Ref: 1…2.

Floch looked annoyed that Connie had kicked out, and Floch responded by grabbing Connie by the hair, picking him up, and hitting him with a couple of Knife-Edge Chops, sending Connie staggering into the ropes. The crowd booed as Floch looked on at the crowd, and laughed when they began chanting for Connie, telling them that their chants were going to do nothing before running the ropes, and hitting Connie with multiple Running Forearms to the side of his head while he was leaning against the ropes.

"Floch with some hard Forearms to the side of the head, and the speed of Floch's strikes makes them even more dangerous!" Mauro exclaimed as Floch ran the ropes, and hit a Discus Forearm to Connie's face, sending him falling onto all fours. The camera panned to Connie's bloody nose as Floch ran the ropes, and hit another Discus Forearm to the side of Connie's head before going for another pin, hooking both of his legs back once again.

Ref: 1…2..

"Connie kicked out once again, but look at how dazed he looks. The lights are on, but it doesn't look like anyone's home," Daffy noted as Floch grabbed Connie, put him in a seated position, grabbed his arm, put it back in a Hammerlock, and started ramming his knee several times to both the back and the arm. The crowd continued booing as Floch hit a Running Uppercut to the back of Connie's head before grabbing his arm again, and kicking the top of Connie's right shoulder blade before the referee pulled Floch away from Connie as the referee tried to ask him if he wanted to give up. Connie shook his head and told the referee that he was going to continue, to which Floch responded with a Jumping Stomp to the back of Connie's shoulder blade.

"Floch seems to be trying to separate Connie's shoulder from the rest of his arm!" Cinder exclaimed as Floch picked Connie up, and hit him with several forearms to the back of Connie's head before hitting him with a Snap Back Suplex. Floch then put Connie on his knees, ran the ropes, and hit him with a Running DDT before hitting Connie with a Jumping Senton onto the arm. Connie rolled to the corner, trying to shake his arm to get the blood flowing through it again, but Floch responded with a Running Corner Crossbody, sending Connie staggering out of the corner.

"It's not often that we see Floch flying around like that, but it's definitely effective!" Mauro exclaimed as Floch picked Connie up, and hit him with a T-Bone Suplex before bridging into a pinfall.

Ref: 1…2..

Floch looked annoyed at the referee once again before grabbing Connie's right leg and right arm, and putting him in a submission hold, pulling both his arm and leg back. The crowd cheered and chanted for Connie as Connie tried to pull himself to the ropes, but Floch responded by stomping and kicking Connie in the gut before rolling him back to the center of the ring. After another minute, Connie used his free arm to start punching Floch in the face in an attempt to get him off, but Floch continued stretching Connie's right arm and leg.

"With all the damage done to his shoulders, arms, and back, Connie may have to give up here if he wants to still have a career afterwards!" Daffy exclaimed as Connie once again began pulling himself to the ropes. While Floch once again tried to roll Connie away from the ropes, Connie rolled along with Floch, allowing Connie to grab the ropes with his free arm, causing the crowd to explode as Floch was forced by the referee was forced to break up the pin. Floch began arguing with the referee before picking Connie up and attempting to hit the Impaler DDT onto Connie, but Connie countered by punching Floch in the gut multiple times and pushing him into the ropes.

"Connie able to push Floch away, preventing the Impaler DDT from finishing him off!" Cinder exclaimed as when Floch rebounded, Connie knocked Floch down with a Spinning Leg Lariat right to the face. The crowd cheered, as Connie fell to his knees, but pounded on the mat to get the fans clapping for him. Connie then jumped back to his feet, and when Floch got back up with a hand over his mouth, Connie hit him with multiple punches to the side of the face, and when Floch attempted to hit punch Connie, Connie ducked and hit Floch with a Stunner before immediately hitting the stunned Floch with a Standing Sliced Bread #2 and going for the pinfall.

Ref: 1…2..

"Even with his back damaged, Connie is able to pull off incredible maneuvers like that Stunner/Sliced Bread #2 combination!" Mauro exclaimed as Floch rolled back onto his knees, which Connie responded to by hitting Floch with a Running Basement Dropkick to the side of the head, sending him falling into the ropes, with his head draped over the middle rope. Connie nodded with a smirk on his face before running the ropes, running over Floch's back, and jumping over the top rope to hit Floch in the back of the head and the back of the neck with an Elbow Drop.

"Connie taking insane risks to make sure that Floch has a harder time getting back in control, but this could be detrimental to Connie too, especially since he isn't 100%," Cinder explained as Connie jumped back onto the apron, and after stretching his back, climbed up to the top rope. When Floch staggered back to his feet, Connie dived off of the top rope, and hit Floch with a Diving Hurricanrana, causing the crowd to explode as Connie flipped back up to his feet while waiting for Floch to get back on his feet. When he did, Connie ran at Floch with two Clotheslines, a Spinning Back Fist, and a Spinning Neckbreaker.

"Connie keeping the pressure on Floch, which is the smartest thing he can do at this point in the match," Daffy noted as the crowd continued cheering as Connie hit a downed Floch with a Standing Shooting Star Press before going for the pin.

Ref: 1…2..

"The problem with all these high-flying moves is that they're putting pressure on Connie's back and arms, and those have been the primary targets of Floch's offense," Cinder elaborated as Connie grabbed Floch by the hair, and hit him with multiple punches to the side of the head before attempting to go back up to the top rope. However, while Connie had his back turned, Floch was able to get back to his feet and used a burst of energy to grab Connie and push him to the outside, sending him crashing chest first into the fan barricade.

"What a counter by Floch! He may have ended Connie's comeback with that push off the top rope!" Mauro exclaimed as Floch glared at a coughing Connie, who was holding onto the top of the fan barricade to keep himself on his feet. Floch then ran the ropes, and much to the shock of the booing fans, Floch ran through the middle rope to hit a Suicide Dive onto Connie that pushed his back into the fan barricade.

"Floch pulling out all the stops to put Connie away! How many times in his short BTWF career has he hit a Suicide Dive like that!?" Daffy exclaimed as Floch quickly threw Connie back into the ring and went for the pin while holding Connie's tights back and hooking both of his legs back as well.

Ref: 1…2..

Floch pounded on the mat several times in frustration before picking Connie back up, putting him in a Suplex position, and attempted to hit him with a Falcon Arrow, but the crowd cheered as Connie was able to counter by sending Floch down with a Japanese Arm Drag. Floch got back to his feet, and Connie responded by hitting Floch with a Sit-Out Jawbreaker to stun him before attempting to climb up to the top rope for the Diving DDT.

"Connie looking to finally finish this match off with the Diving DDT!" Daffy exclaimed as Floch grabbed the referee and pushed him into the ropes, causing Connie to fall onto the top turnbuckle crotch first. The crowd booed as Floch staggered over to the corner, climbed up to the middle turnbuckle, grabbed Connie in a Suplex position, and hit him with a Top Rope Falcon Arrow before grabbing Connie's legs, and pulling them back for the pinfall.

Ref: 1…2..

Floch looked infuriated that Connie rolled his shoulder out, so Floch picked Connie up, and hit him with a Ripcord Lariat that was hard enough to turn Connie inside out before going for another pin, hooking both of his legs back.

Ref: 1…2..

"Floch needs to calm down here, as if he lets stress and shock take him over, he's going to lose sight of winning the match!" Cinder exclaimed as Floch pulled his hair in frustration as he got back to his feet, and began arguing with the referee again. After realizing that the referee, again, wouldn't change his mind on the pinfall, picked Connie up, and attempted to put him in the Scum of the Earth Armbar (Rolling Omoplata). However, the crowd cheered as Connie was able to hit Floch in the face several times with Back Elbows to escape the Omoplata, and hit Floch in the face with an Eat Defeat.

"Connie's getting back into it once again! This could be his last chance! Can he make it count!?" Mauro exclaimed as Connie ran the ropes, springboarded off of the middle rope, and hit a stunned Floch with a Springboard Facebuster before climbing up to the top turnbuckle. Connie got the crowd cheering even louder as he pounded on the top turnbuckle as Floch began staggering back to his feet. The crowd exploded as Connie dived off of the top rope, and hit Floch with the Diving DDT before rolling over into the pinfall.

*Bell Rings*

"Ladies and gentlemen, here is your winner, Connie Springer!" Tony Chimel announced as the crowd continued cheering. Connie, who couldn't stand up yet, was holding his arm in pain while laying on his back. Connie had a smile on his face despite also grimacing in pain at the same time before pulling himself into a seated position, and looking at the cheering crowd with the smile not leaving his face. Connie took a deep breath before rolling out of the ring, still holding his arm in pain as he continued smiling at the cheering fans as he hi-fived them with his good arm.

"Connie pulling off the impressive victory here, and despite his body being wracked with pain, he's going to have to surgically remove the smile off of his face!" Mauro exclaimed as Floch, still in the ring, held the side of his head in pain and pounded on the mat several times in frustration while Connie jumped over the fan barricade and into the audience. The crowd cheered louder as Connie hugged and fist-bumped the fans in the audience while laughing at Floch who was starting to sit up in the ring.

"Connie has been chomping at the bit for another chance at the BTWF Cruiserweight Championship, and this win could be something that could help his argument!" Cinder exclaimed as Floch looked at Connie celebrating with the audience, and simply smirked while coughing as he tried to take in more air. Connie ignored Floch as he walked through the crowd, high-fiving, and fist-bumping the fans as he jumped over the fan barricade, and landed on the entranceway.

"Floch doesn't seem too upset about the loss, surprisingly, but he only seemed to smile when he saw Connie's reaction to winning," Daffy noted as Floch pulled himself back to his feet, and looked at the camera, telling the fans at home that his conflict with Connie wasn't over by a long shot as Connie continued his way to the back while holding his arm. The camera then panned to the TitanTron, where a video started that featured Sunny Bridges back when he was an active wrestler, making his way to the ring with the BTWF Light Heavyweight Championship around his waist.

"In the United States around this time period, we never saw a lot of high-flying wrestling. So seeing Sunny flying around the ring so effortlessly was something that the fans couldn't take their eyes off," former BTWF commentator Daffy Duck explained as more footage of Sunny played, this time showing him hitting multiple opponents with a Springboard Moonsault and a Springboard Kick.

"I remember my Mom taking me backstage while she was on tour, and seeing Sunny in the ring for the first time was honestly like watching a Superhero. My Mom used to get jealous that I'd watch Sunny's matches more than hers," Crona reminisced while laughing as the video feed split, showing both Sunny and Crona hitting a Moonsault from the top rope and hitting a Running Tilt-a-Whirl Headscissors.

"The thing with Sunny is that he didn't just have the ability in the ring, but he was able to hold the crowd in the palm of his hands, which is a special skill that many wrestlers would kill for," BTWF Hall of Famer Gildarts Clive explained as the footage panned to Sunny in the ring with BTWF Champion All Might. Despite his height and weight disadvantage, Sunny walked up to All Might and looked him right in the eye while holding up the BTWF Light Heavyweight Championship.

"All Might, you may be bigger than me standing face-to-face, but when I'm on that top rope, your size won't matter at all! At StarShow, I'm going to become the lightest BTWF Champion in history, and all these people are going to see that size doesn't matter, and it's all about the heart!" Sunny exclaimed, causing the crowd to explode as All Might responded with a handshake to Sunny. The footage then panned to StarShow 2000, where Sunny and All Might competed in the main event of StarShow with the BTWF Championship on the line and the crowd chanting for both men.

"When All Might was wrestling, the crowd was always behind All Might 100% But that night, when he was going up against Sunny, All Might heard the chants for Sunny too, battling his. As someone watching this match live, it was crazy seeing someone getting almost the exact same crowd reactions as All Might while All Might was right in front of them," former BTWF Hardcore Champion Izuku Midoriya explained as he chuckled at the memory of watching StarShow 2000 from his home in Japan. The footage showed Sunny countering the Might Lock (Full Nelson), hitting All Might with a Pele Kick hard enough to send him staggering into the corner. The crowd continued cheering Sunny on as Sunny ran the ropes, and hit All Might with a Running Corner Enziguri before taking him down with a Tornado DDT.

"You'd be hard-pressed to find a wrestler that the fans wanted to actually dethrone All Might back then. Hearing the crowd cheer on Sunny so passionately just shows the love they had for him and the respect they had for his ability," current BTWF commentator and former wrestler Bob Belcher explained as the footage showed Sunny tapping out with to the Might Lock (Full Nelson, but then showed All Might shaking Sunny's hand and raising his arm in victory, causing the crowd to cheer louder as Sunny smiled at the cheering fans and the respect he got from the biggest star in BTWF.

"People may recognize Sunny now as the General Manager of BTWF Intensity, but we should never forget that he was one of the most inspirational Cruiserweight wrestlers in not only the BTWF, but arguably the entire Fanfiction Wrestling Multiverse," Overhaul explained as the video ended with several more demonstrations of Sunny's athleticism, such as a Jumping Enziguri, a Running Frankensteiner, a Plancha to the outside, and a backflip off of the top rope.

The camera panned back to the backstage area, where Jack Korpela was standing next to Stan Smith, who had his nose in the air with the American Flag in his hands.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome 'A Real American' Stan Smith, who requested this time to address Chris Panzer's interview on the most recent episode of LWF: Reborn," Jack explained before putting the microphone underneath Stan's mouth so that he could explain himself.

"Chris Panzer claims he's going to be carrying the Philippines on one shoulder, and the United States on the other. The problem with that is I'll be carrying the United States, the greatest country of all, on both of my shoulders in our match. He thinks my 'Real American' message is nonsense, but the real nonsense is the fact he thinks a bunch of sympathizers is going to lead him to victory," Stan explained before Jack took the microphone back.

"You are going to have this match at the LWF: Reborn PPV WrestlePalooza. IS being in enemy territory for this match a concern?" Jack asked as Stan chuckled before continuing on with his interview.

"Jack, everywhere I go seems like I'm in enemy territory. People don't want to hear the truth these days, and Panzer talks about 'My America' like it's a bad thing. Well, Panzer, you and your little Panzer army are going to be the ones that crumble at WrestlePalooza. And hell, maybe I'll even show up on LWF just to give you another reason why you shouldn't mess with a Real American," Stan said before he walked out of frame, briefly waving the American Flag in the camera's lens.

The camera panned back to the stage, with the crowd cheering and chanting for Sunny, and those cheers continued as 'The Squid and the Wolf' by Hot Tag Media Works played. A few seconds into the song, Chris Brookes came walking out of the back slowly, with the bandana over his mouth had an NWO logo with a Red X over it. Brookes then reached into the pocket of his jacket, pulling out a steel chain, and wrapping it around his hand and arm.

"The following contest is scheduled for one fall, and it is for the BTWF Hardcore Championship! Introducing the challenger, from Tipton England, weighing in at 170 pounds, he is the 'Calamari Catch King', Chris Brookes!" Tony Chimel announced. The crowd continued cheering as Brookes looked at the crowd, and nodded at several of the cheering fans in the front row. Brookes then walked over to the camera, and showed the fans at home his chain-wrapped fist, telling the fans that he wasn't leaving the arena without the BTWF Hardcore Championship.

"Chris Brookes, one of the most vicious men in the LWF Reborn roster, was able to eliminate the BTWF Hardcore Champion Jellal Fernandes in the Battle Riot, granting him this championship match here tonight," Cinder explained as Brookes made it to the ringside area, kissing his chain-wrapped fist before walking to the steel steps. Brookes walked up to the top of the steel steps, and after looking on at the cheering fans, took off his bandana and spat water into the air. Brookes then jumped over the top rope and paced around the ring slowly before taking off his ring jacket.

"Jellal's first title defense coming in the form of this lunatic really shows just how insane the Battle Riot can be! How else would a lunatic like Chris Brookes get a title match against someone like Jellal!?" Daffy asked as Brookes went into the corner as the crowd's cheers turned to boos as Stardust's 'Written in the Stars' theme song played, but when Jellal came out and looked on at the booing crowd with a smirk on his face, the music turned into 'MANTRA' by Bring Me The Horizon.

"And his opponent, representing the NWO, residing in the Tower of Heaven, he is the BTWF Hardcore Champion, Jellal Fernandes!" Tony Chimel announced as Jellal pointed to the BTWF Hardcore Championship around his waist, strutting down the entranceway. Brookes simply stared at Jellal while he mocked some of the booing fans, telling the camera that he was going to send Brookes back to LWF in a body bag. Jellal then jumped up onto the top of the fan barricade as he walked to the ringside area, and walked on top of the fan barricade until he made it to another side of the ring.

"Jellal becoming a member of the NWO has already paid dividends for his career, as he's coming into this show as the BTWF Hardcore Champion, defeating Izuku Midoriya thanks to the rest of the NWO!" Mauro exclaimed as Jellal turned around, and jumped from the fan barricade to the ring apron. Brookes sarcastically clapped at Jellal's display of athleticism before Jellal jumped over the top rope and into the ring, walking into the corner that Brookes was in to show off the BTWF Hardcore Championship.

"Brookes doesn't seem too concerned about Jellal and his bravado, especially since Jellal's come out here alone, surprisingly," Daffy noted as Jellal took the BTWF Hardcore Championship off of around his waist, gave it to the referee, and then told the referee that he was ready. Brookes nodded at the title belt, telling the referee that he was ready before the timekeeper was told to ring the bell. When the referee did, Brookes immediately started hitting Jellal in the chest with multiple Knife-Edge Chops to the chest. Jellal was able to push one of the chops away and hit Brookes in the side of the face with a couple of right-handed jabs, but Brookes was able to hit Jellal with a Jumping Knee to the face, sending him staggering into the corner.

"We're getting some hard strikes to start this Hardcore Championship match!" Cinder exclaimed as Brookes started stomping and punching Jellal in the corner. The crowd continued cheering as Brookes took advantage of the no-disqualification rules before hitting Jellal with multiple forearm strikes to the side of the head until Jellal was sent into a seated position in front of the bottom turnbuckle. Brookes then smirked at the blood that was coming out of some cuts from Jellal's chest from the steel chain-assisted Knife-Edge Chops before running the ropes and hitting a downed Jellal with a Running Cannonball Senton.

"Brookes already dominating the new BTWF Hardcore Champion, nearly sending Jellal through the corner with that Cannonball Senton!" Mauro exclaimed as Jellal rolled out of the ring, but Brookes immediately ran the ropes and sent Jellal crashing into the corner of the fan barricade with a Suicide Dive. The crowd continued cheering as Brookes took the chain off of his fist, put it in his pocket, and hit multiple punches and kicks to the sides of the head and the chest, but Jellal responded by raking Brookes in the eye. The crowd booed as Jellal grabbed Brookes by the hair, and started punching him in the side of the head before attempting to throw him into the fan barricade, but Brookes stopped himself from hitting the fan barricade.

"Brookes isn't letting Jellal get back into this match, stopping himself from crashing into the fan barricade!" Cinder exclaimed as Brookes hit Jellal in the side of the head several times with chops. Brookes then pushed Jellal into the fan barricade before walking over to the ring, going down, and taking a couple of steel chairs, kendo sticks, and a trash can out from underneath the ring. Brookes grabbed one of the kendo sticks and attempted to hit Jellal with the Kendo Stick, but Jellal rolled out of the way, causing the crowd to boo as Jellal smirked at the booing crowd and bragged about how he dodged the Kendo Stick. The crowd's boos quickly turned to cheers as Brookes turned Jellal around and hit him right in the face with a Kendo Stick.

"That's why you need to keep your attention on your opponent at all times in a Hardcore match, especially when your opponent is a lunatic like Chris Brookes!" Mauro exclaimed as Brookes continued smashing the Kendo Stick across Jellal's back. The crowd continued cheering as Brookes walked over to the trash can, and put it over Jellal's head. Brookes stuck his tongue out at the cheering crowd before hitting Jellal in the side of the head with multiple Kendo Stick shots with the trash can assist until the trash can started bending. Brookes grabbed Jellal, threw him back into the ring, and threw the bent trash can back in the ring before smirking at the crowd and climbing back onto the ring apron.

"Brookes looks like he has something big planned in the ring, and Jellal has to do something quickly before Brookes can do what he has planned!" Daffy exclaimed in worry as Brookes attempted to springboard back into the ring, but Jellal responded by throwing the trash can right into Brooke's face, sending him falling out of the ring. The crowd booed as Jellal smirked while staggering over to the ropes, and jumping onto the apron after grabbing the trash can. With Brookes still down, Jellal dived off of the apron with a Cactus Elbow with the trash can assist, sending the trash can crashing into Brookes' chest.

"Jellal turning up the hardcore now, sending the trash can crashing right into Brookes' chest!" Mauro exclaimed as Jellal continued smashing the trash can into Brookes' chest and sides before throwing the can down, picking Brookes up, and hitting him with a Scoop Slam that sent him crashing into the trash can. Jellal laughed at the fact that, in his mind, he took out the trash, with the crowd booing at his shit joke before Jellal grabbed Brookes, and threw him into the fan barricade, sending him crashing into the barricade back first.

"Jellal seems to be having fun now that he's actually destroying Brookes thanks to some trash can shots!" Cinder exclaimed as Jellal started choking Brookes with his foot, sending the back of his head pushing into the fan barricade. The crowd continued booing as Jellal hit several punches to the side of Brookes' head before picking him up and hitting him with a Gourdbuster that sent Brookes' chest crashing into the top of the fan barricade. Jellal then put Brookes in a Front Facelock and started punching him in the chest and the face before leaving him hanging from the top of the fan barricade.

"Jellal seems to have something planned here, placing Brookes precariously on the top of the fan barricade!" Mauro exclaimed as Jellal went and grabbed a steel chair before he jumped back onto the apron. The crowd booed as Jellal patted the side of the steel chair before hitting a Diving Leg Drop with a chair assist onto Brookes, sending Jellal's leg and the chair crashing into the back and the back of Brookes' neck. The crowd continued booing as Jellal grabbed the steel chair, and continued hitting Brookes in the sides and the back with the steel chair before throwing the bent chair away.

"How Brookes can even move after all these chair shots to the spine just speaks to his toughness," Cinder explained as Jellal grabbed Brookes, and threw him back into the ring. The crowd continued booing as Jellal jumped up onto the apron, and springboarded into the ring with a Springboard Shooting Star Press before going for the first pinfall of the match.

Ref: 1…2..

Jellal immediately got back up and stomped on Brookes several times before rolling out of the ring, going back on the outside to find a table underneath the ring.

"Jellal isn't done yet, as he looks like he's getting a table for his Hardcore Championship match opponent," Daffy explained as Jellal pushed the table back into the ring along with a couple more kendo sticks. Jellal rolled back into the ring, but the crowd cheered as while on his knees, Brookes started punching Jellal in the gut, but Jellal was quickly able to send him back down with a Jumping Dropkick to the side of his head. Jellal grabbed Brookes, and threw him into the corner before hitting multiple Brookes with punches and stomps to the side of the back before running the ropes and hitting Brookes in the side of the head with a Running Knee Strike.

"A Running Knee to the side of the head! You can see Brookes' head moving like a bobblehead, side to side, as he falls to the ground!" Mauro exclaimed as Jellal ran the ropes again, and hit a Running Knee to Brookes' chest with enough force to send Brookes falling to his knees. The crowd booed as Jellal playfully kicked Brookes in the side of the head before reaching into Brookes' pocket, and grabbing the steel chain from his tights. Jellal grabbed Brookes by the hair, dragged him to the ropes, tied his arms around the top rope with the chain, and slapped Brookes in the back of the head, causing Brookes to nearly snap and try to kick Jellal, but he was trapped.

"Jellal using Brookes' own chain against him, tying him to the top rope, leaving him trapped!" Daffy exclaimed as Jellal grabbed one of the Kendo Sticks. The crowd continued booing as Jellal started hitting Brookes in the back with the Kendo Stick. After the 4th shot, Jellal grabbed Brookes by the ear and yelled in his ear for him to quit, but Brookes responded by spitting in Jellal's face. The crowd cheered as Jellal wiped Brookes' spit from his face, and in an act of pure rage, hit Brookes in the back with the Kendo Stick about 10 more times, with several large wounds appearing on Brookes' back. Jellal then ran the ropes, and hit a Running Backstabber onto Brookes' back, sending Brookes falling with enough force to send him falling out of the grasp of the chains before going for the pinfall.

Ref: 1…2..

"Brookes once again barely kicking out, but to Jellal, this could be seen as yet another act of defiance by the Calamari Catch King!" Cinder exclaimed as Jellal grabbed Brookes by the hair, and started smashing the back of his head into the mat before grabbing the steel chain. The crowd continued booing and chanting for Brookes as Jellal whipped Brookes in the back and the chest with the chain, causing some of the wounds on Brookes' back to start bleeding. Jellal then grabbed Brookes by the hair once again, throwing Brookes into the corner, sending Brookes' face crashing into the top turnbuckle. Jellal then grabbed Brookes by the tights, picked him up, and put him on the top rope.

"Jellal trying to do something big on the top rope to retain his newly-won championship!" Daffy exclaimed as Jellal grabbed the table, put it up, and then climbed after Brookes on the top turnbuckle. Jellal hit a couple of punches to the side of Brookes' head before attempting to hit him with a Top Rope Back Suplex. However, the crowd began cheering again as Brookes started hitting Jellal in the side of the head with multiple Back Elbows, causing Jellal to become staggered. Jellal attempted to counter Brookes' attempts at a comeback with a Bell Clap, but Brookes ducked his head to avoid the Bell Clap, and hit Jellal in the face with a headbutt, sending Jellal staggering off of the top rope.

"Brookes finally able to separate himself from Jellal, using a hard headbutt to send him staggering off of the top rope!" Mauro exclaimed as Jellal grabbed the table to help prop himself back up. The crowd cheered much louder as after Brookes was able to balance himself on the top rope, and hit a Diving Top Rope Cannonball Senton onto Jellal, sending both men crashing through the table before Brookes went for the pinfall.

Ref: 1…2..

"Brookes almost got the pinfall there after sending Jellal crashing through the table, and now Brookes has the plastic table liner in his hands!" Cinder exclaimed as Brookes, annoyed at Jellal for kicking out, wrapped the plastic table liner around Jellal's throat. The crowd cheered as Brookes pulled the liner back, with Jellal trying to pull the liner off of around his throat, but the crowd cheered as Brookes began kicking Jellal in the back of the head before letting go and hitting Jellal with a Jumping Senton to the chest.

"Jellal is still trying to get his breath back from getting choked with the plastic table liner, and Brookes making that harder with a Jumping Senton to the chest!" Daffy exclaimed as Brookes put Jellal in a seated position, put a steel chair in front of his face, and then ran the ropes, hitting Jellal with a Seated Bicycle Knee Strike to the face before going for the pinfall, hooking both of his legs back.

Brookes, smirking at the cheering crowd with his tongue sticking out, grabbed the plastic table liner back from the ground, and started whipping Jellal on the back.

"Brookes now has a turn whipping Jellal like a government mule! That table liner may be made of plastic, but the edges of that liner are as hard as metal, and you can see that from the wounds already forming on Jellal's back!" Mauro exclaimed as Brookes grabbed Jellal, and tied his hands to the top rope with the table liner, and the crowd exploded as Brookes grabbed the steel chain, and started whipping Jellal in the back and the sides, causing the wounds already forming on Jellal's back to bleed. Brookes then untied Jellal and hit a German Suplex onto Jellal before throwing him into the corner, causing the crowd to cheer as Brookes hit multiple Knife-Edge Chops to Jellal's chest.

"Brookes not letting Jellal get any moment to breathe in this match!" Cinder exclaimed as Brookes put Jellal on the top turnbuckle, and started hitting multiple open-hand palms to the side of Jellal's head. Brookes then climbed up to the top turnbuckle as well, put both of Jellal's arms in a Butterfly position, and hit Jellal with a Top Rope Butterfly Suplex, sending Jellal's back crashing into the chain and broken table pieces on the canvas. The crowd continued cheering as Brookes rolled into a pinfall, hooking both of Jellal's legs back.

The crowd booed as Mercury Black, Duncan, and Marco Diaz came running down to the ring and started stomping on Brookes. The crowd booed as Mercury, Diaz, and Duncan pulled Brookes away from Jellal and continued raining down punches on Brookes' head. The crowd began cheering as Brookes headbutted Marco in the face, and kicked Mercury in the face. Brookes pushed Duncan away, allowing him to Clothesline both Mercury and Marco out of the ring. Duncan hit several punches to the side of Brookes' head before attempting to hit him with a Leg Drop Bulldog. However, the crowd cheered as Brookes was able to catch Duncan in an Electric Chair Drop position just as Jellal was getting back to his feet.

"The NWO are trying to make sure that Jellal is still the Hardcore Champion coming out of this show, but Brookes is fighting back!" Daffy exclaimed as when Jellal got back up to his feet, Brookes threw Duncan into Jellal from the Electric Chair position, causing Duncan to inadvertently hit Jellal with a Codebreaker. The crowd continued cheering as Brookes hit a Running Senton onto both Duncan and Jellal before throwing Duncan out of the ring, and going for the pin, hooking both of his legs back.

The crowd continued booing as Mercury springboarded into the ring, hitting a Springboard 450 Splash onto Brookes' back.

"And once again, the NWO preventing Jellal from being pinned by Brookes!" Cinder exclaimed as Mercury quickly picked Brookes back up, and attempted to hit him with a Styles Clash, but the crowd cheered as Brookes began kicking Mercury in the face, finally escaping the Styles Clash position. Brookes then ran the ropes and hit Mercury in the side of the head with a Bicycle Kick hard enough to send him flying over the top rope. Brookes then picked Jellal up and attempted to lock him in the Octopus Stretch, but Marco came back into the ring with a steel chair.

"The NWO isn't giving up yet, and that's something admirable whether you like the NWO or not!" Mauro exclaimed as Marco attempted to hit Brookes with the chair, but Brookes dodged, causing Jellal to get accidentally hit in the face with the chair. Marco looked shocked, not realizing that Brookes was running at him, pushing the chair into Marco's face with another Bicycle Kick. When he noticed that Jellal was stunned, Brookes ran the ropes and springboarded off of the middle rope, hitting Jellal with a Springboard Cutter before going for a pin, hooking both of his legs back.

Ref: 1…2..

"Brookes took out the NWO and hit Jellal with an amazing Springboard Cutter, but Jellal is still able to kick out, albeit barely!" Mauro exclaimed as Brookes growled at the referee, got back to his feet, and started pulling the canvas off of the ring, revealing the wooden frame underneath the canvas. The crowd cheered as Brookes did the slit-throat taunt to the excited fans before picking Jellal up, and putting him in position for the Praying Mantis Bomb (Double Underhook Piledriver). Brookes moved him and Jellal closer to the exposed wooden boards, but Jellal was able to hit Brookes with a low blow, causing the crowd to boo as Jellal grabbed Brookes, and hit him with a DDT, sending Brookes' head bouncing off of the wooden boards.

"Jellal using the wooden boards to his advantage! Brookes is bleeding at the top of his head, and is completely unconscious!" Cinder exclaimed as Jellal grabbed Brookes by the hair, and sent him into the corner. The crowd booed as Jellal jumped up onto the middle rope, put Brookes in a Dragon Sleeper position, and hit him with the Diamond Dust, sending Brookes' face crashing into the wooden boards once again before Jellal went for the pin, hooking both of Brookes' legs back.

*Bell Rings*

"Ladies and gentlemen, here is your winner, and still the BTWF Hardcore Champion, representing the NWO, Jellal Fernandes!" Tony Chimel announced as the crowd continued booing while Jellal rolled out of the ring. While breathing heavily, Jellal yelled at one of the ringside attendants to give him the BTWF Hardcore Championship belt back. The crowd continued booing as Jellal grabbed the championship belt from the ringside attendant, and raised it over his head while Mercury, Duncan, and Marco came back to their feet, and celebrated with Jellal.

"The NWO continues to secure momentum, as Jellal was able to keep the BTWF Hardcore Championship in the NWO!" Daffy exclaimed as the crowd continued booing as Jellal pushed Marco away before celebrating with Duncan and Mercury, telling the fans that this was going to be only the first in a long line of BTWF Hardcore Championship defenses. While Marco was trying to catch up with the rest of the NWO, Brookes rolled out of the ring, holding his head in pain while a ringside medical assistant was trying to calm the blood flow from his head.

"Brookes gave it his all in this match, and it took being dropped head first twice into the wooden boards of the ring to put him down for the three count!" Mauro exclaimed as Brookes grabbed the top of the fan barricade, pulled himself up, and pushed the medical assistant away. The crowd cheered as Brookes stuck his tongue out at the crowd, licked some of the blood off of around his face, and started limping back to the locker room, despite the ringside medical assistant walking after Brookes.

"LWF Reborn's resident lunatic is refusing help from medical staff, preferring to go to the back by himself!" Cinder exclaimed as Jellal still laughed at Brookes limping to the back as Marco patted Jellal on the back in celebration. Jellal glared at Marco and pushed him away once again before he went back to celebrating with Mercury and Duncan, leaving Marco looking a little dejected, but nonetheless excited that the NWO was starting their night with a big win.

"There also appears to be some tension between Marco and certain other members of the NWO, but it doesn't seem to affect their happiness at winning!" Mauro exclaimed as the camera panned back to the TitanTron, where a video started playing, showing Bob Belcher when he was a wrestler, diving off of the apron to hit an Elbow Drop on a prone Overhaul, sending him crashing through the table.

"If there's one person you could point to as the definitive innovator of Hardcore in the BTWF, then it would have to be Bob Belcher. I swear that man was insane in his prime!" BTWF Hall of Famer Gildarts Clive said, laughing at some memories of Bob, which included Bob debuting in 1996 by choking out Homer Simpson with a steel chain before throwing him off of the stage and hitting a Diving Cactus Elbow onto Homer's chest.

"Nobody in the BTWF had dominated Homer Simpson like Bob did. Like, Bob would always come out on top in the next couple of months in their feud," former BTWF commentator Daffy Duck explained as his first PPV match, BTWF Backlash 1996, showed Bob Belcher knocking Homer Simpson out with a Mandible Claw. The footage then showed Bob, six months later, defeating Cleveland Brown Sr. with a Double Arm DDT, the Mandible Claw, and the Cactus Elbow Drop through a table.

"Bob really added a lot of grit and brutal action to BTWF TV, and the Diving Elbow Drop off of the apron and onto the floor was something so many BTWF fans hadn't seen before," former BTWF Hardcore Champion Black Star explained as Bob pinned Cleveland Brown Jr., and won the BTWF International Championship. The next clips showed the next several months of Bob's International Championship reign, showing him putting Soos in the Mandible Claw and not letting him go until Soos' mouth was bleeding, Bob hitting Gildarts with a Stump Puller Piledriver through a table, and hitting All Might with a flaming steel chair, causing the crowd to explode into shock and boos.

"That flaming chair…I had never seen anything like that before, and the crowd wanted to destroy Bob after nearly blinding All Might like that," BTWF Hall of Famer Dutch Van Der Linde reminisced as the footage was shown, where Bob won a tournament to crown a new BTWF Champion after All Might had to vacate the championship due to the damage caused by Bob's attack. Bob held onto the title for several months, defending the title against various Superstars such as Arthur Morgan, Shouta Aizawa, and Gildarts Clive.

"Bob just becoming more and more violent after what he did to All Might made people even more excited for All Might's return than they would have had All Might just vacate the belt on his own," current BTWF commentator Rintaro Okabe explained as the footage showed off Bob at Bash at the Beach 1997, where he was in the middle of the ring, holding the BTWF Championship in his arms. He was originally going to face Gildarts Clive in a Street Fight rematch for the BTWF Championship, but Bob had destroyed Gildarts by sending him through the stage with a Powerbomb into the lights.

"My goal since coming to BTWF is to have everyone experience the pain that I've felt throughout my life. Seeing the fear in Gildarts eyes filled me with an ecstasy that I haven't felt in a long time," Bob went on in his promo. Bob then issued an open challenge, saying that anyone could come down and challenge him for the BTWF Championship. The crowd nearly blew the roof off of the arena with cheers as All Might came out, with some scars from the burn still over his right eyebrow. Bob looked shocked as All Might stomped over to the ring and began the match.

"All Might always got loud reactions, but man, those cheers he got after coming back from Bob's attack were something on an entirely different level. Also just goes to show how Bob got so much out of one strike with a flaming chair," BTWF Hall of Famer Tim Scam noted as after 10 minutes of a wild Falls Count Anywhere match, All Might was able to go tit-for-tat with Bob when it came to Hardcore. All Might sent Bob crashing through the announcers' table with a Powerbomb, picked him up, and choked him into unconsciousness with the monitor cords, allowing All Might to win the BTWF Championship back.

"All Might had never been known to be hardcore, as he was always a technical powerhouse. But Bob was able to make sure both of them were equally hardcore, making the match so much more different than many of All Might's other title matches," current BTWF commentator Matt Striker explained as Bob took a few months off of TV after the All Might match, but when he came back, something was different; Bob started showing more mental and emotional vulnerability.

"Coming back, I realized that I had to do something different since I've been the deranged monster for over a year and a half. So, I decided to kind of…use my own personal life and family as a way to connect with the fans on a personal level," BTWF Hall of Famer and current BTWF Commentator Bob Belcher explained as he was seated next to Gorilla Monsoon, scratching his arm in nervousness as he began discussing his family and how he became the monster people saw him as.

"The look of disappointment I saw in a lot of people's faces reminded me of the looks of disappointment my Dad gave me when I didn't clean my room fast enough. I guess their looks reminded me of all the bad times I had and added to the attack I did on All Might," Bob explained. While he was in the middle of his interview, BTWF International Champion Tim Scam came walking up to him, running him down about his admissions of his life. Bob didn't take kindly to this as he fought him in an open challenge match, and in the same way, he lost the BTWF Championship, Bob won the BTWF International championship with the crowd cheering for him the entire time.

"Winning a championship with the crowd cheering you on all the way is always amazing, but my family getting to see the moment live was something I'll never forget, especially since it led them to their own careers in the BTWF," Bob explained as the footage showed a bloodied and beaten Bob celebrating his International Championship victory with his wife Linda, and his children Tina, Gene, and Louise. The footage also showed Louise, Tina, and Gene's respective careers in the BTWF, with Bob hugging all three of them backstage as the footage came to an end.

The camera then panned backstage, where Levy McGarden was standing next to BTWF Women's Champion 'Amazing' Luna Collins.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm here with the BTWF Women's Champion, 'Amazing' Luna Collins, who will be competing in a 10-woman tag team match later tonight, as she teams up with Team RWBY to take on the Conglomerate and future BTWF Women's Championship opponent, Brandish My," Levy explained as Luna nodded before grabbing a hold of the microphone and moving it closer to her face.

"Levy, with all due respect, I will talk about my match tonight and Brandish in a moment, but I wanted to address something else," Luna explained.

"Well, of course. The floor is yours," Levy responded. Luna nodded before readjusting the BTWF Women's Championship that was slung over her shoulder and looked at the camera.

"I was watching the most recent episode of LWF: Reborn, as I always like to scout potential talent to battle. In the middle of the show, Adagio Dazzle caught my attention, not with her actions in the ring, but with the words she said in a backstage interview. Adagio said that the BTWF is nothing but an Indy federation and a 'rag-tag little show' during one of her most recent interviews. For someone who had so many disparaging remarks to make about the BTWF, she really didn't mind when she got paid to have a match on BTWF TV," Luna explained. Melissa nodded in agreement, letting Luna continue to speak while keeping the microphone underneath her mouth.

"So Adagio, since you've been complaining that you don't have gold around your waist, and you seem to think that you're too good to be challenged by a BTWF superstar, then how about I lay out a challenge? You come to BTWF Intensity, and I give you a shot at the BTWF Women's Championship. Now, I'm not sure how well you'll do without your 'sisters' or your bodyguard by your side, but rest assured, I'll show you why you are the one that's not on my level," Luna explained before letting Melissa take back the microphone.

"A shocking challenge was given to one of LWF: Reborn's most hated wrestlers. But back to the topic at hand, what do you think of this 10-woman tag match that you're taking a part in later tonight?" Melissa asked. Before Luna could respond, Brandish Myu and Marin Hollow came walking up, with Brandish shaking her head with a disgusted frown aimed right at Luna.

"The fact you're so strung out about what some nobody thinks of you and this company just shows how…quite frankly, pathetic you really are Luna. The problem is, Luna, is that you let emotion dictate so much of what you do, and it's worked out for you so far, but here in the real world, fairy tales have a way of crashing and burning after they've run their course," Brandish explained, putting a hand up in front of Luna's face as she attempted to talk, continuing her promo while Marin played on his phone.

"This little emotional journey you're on as BTWF Women's Champion is going to run out, and once it does, the Influencer will take the BTWF Women's Championship from you and it'll get more eyeballs than you have ever thought possible," Brandish explained, not even looking at Luna, as she was busy looking at Marin and his phone, showing Brandish the statuses of all her social media accounts. Luna grabbed Brandish roughly by the arm and turned her so that she was facing Luna, who was glaring a hole right through her.

"I may have challenged Adagio to a match, but rest assured, I'm still focused on every single other challenger that steps up to the plate, and that includes you. You've been knocking on my door for quite a while now, and trust me when I tell you that you're not going to like what you find on the other side," Luna responded before walking closer to Brandish, who backed away slightly while still glaring at Luna.

"And you're going to get a sneak preview of what you and Adagio are in for later tonight, so make sure you're prepared," Luna explained before taking the championship off of her shoulder and raising it in the air before walking back to the locker room. Brandish turned her attention to Marin, and whispered something into his ear and after Marin nodded in response, the two walked off, leaving Melissa confused as the camera panned back to the stage.
