BTWF Intensity (September Week 2)
Victor Calavera was walking around the hallways of the arena before he found Izuku Midoriya coming into the arena, pulling a rolling suitcase with him. Victor ran up to Midoriya, catching Midoriya's attention just as Victor stopped in front of him.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I have just caught up with Izuku Midoriya, the #1 contender for the World Heavyweight Championship at New Horizons against Katsuki Bakugo. I'm just gonna cut right to the chase; do you have a stipulation picked?" Victor asked as Midoriya smiled before he responded.
"I do, and I can't wait to tell everyone, but I want to make sure Bakugo is paying 100% attention, so next week at our contract signing, I'll tell him my stipulation," Midoriya responded as Victor nodded in response.
"Well if it means anything, I'm rooting for you to beat Bakugo. He's a real prick," Victor whispered, causing Midoriya to laugh.
"Boy don't I know it. Don't worry Victor, I'll get that World Heavyweight Championship away from Bakugo," Midoriya said before he looked up and glared at Bakugo's fellow NWO bandmates, International Champion Dipper Pines and Kite.
"Look, it doesn't matter what stipulation you pick, Bakugo's just going to beat you again," Dipper mocked as Kite over-exaggeratedly wiped Dipper's International title as Midoriya chuckled at the two.
"Keep believing that if you want, but…you might want to focus on Jonah since your match is right about…now," Midoriya said before he walked back to his locker room as Dipper and Kite glared at Midoriya's disappearing frame before walking to the stage, as 'We Are One' by 12 Stones started to play as the crowd booed Dipper Pines and Kite coming out.
"The following contest is scheduled for one fall. Approaching the ring, accompanied by the International Champion Dipper Pines, from the World, Kite!" Tony Chimel announced as the crowd continued to boo while Kite pointed at the International Championship around Dipper's waist before strutting to the ring with all the confidence in the world.
"Welcome to BTWF Intensity ladies and gentlemen! From Beverly Hills, California, I'm Matt Striker alongside my broadcast colleagues, Bob Belcher and Kotoko Iwanaga!" Striker introduced as Kotoko and Bob waved at the camera while Kite ran into the ring through the middle rope and went on the top turnbuckle, and much to the crowd's chagrin, beat his chest while yelling.
"Kite seems to be a little too confident heading into a match despite his record. Oh, and thanks for the introduction Matt," Kotoko responded as Dipper clapped for Kite before he jumped off of the top turnbuckle and onto the canvas. 'Everyone' by Adema started to play as the crowd cheered Jonah coming out with a smirk on his face.
"And his opponent, from Brukenstein, Jonah von Bruken!" Tony Chimel announced as the crowd continued to cheer as Jonah ran to ringside and jumped onto the apron, flipping off Dipper before jumping into the ring and bouncing off of the ropes.
"Jonah looks primed and ready to battle Kite here tonight!" Bob exclaimed as Kite yelled at Jonah before the bell rang. Jonah immediately tackled Kite into the corner and started hitting Kite with multiple shoulder thrusts. Jonah then put Kite in a suplex position, and much to the crowd's delight picked him up for a delayed vertical suplex. The crowd counted along with him as Dipper got onto the apron and yelled at Jonah to put him down. Jonah said 'OK' before dropping Kite with a vertical suplex before going for the pin.
Ref: 1…
"Jonah off to a hot start in this match!" Kotoko exclaimed as Kite kicked out and Jonah responded by grabbing Kite's right arm and punched him in the face multiple times before hitting Kite with a jumping leg drop across his throat. Jonah then picked Kite up, hit him with multiple jabs to the stomach, and attempted to hit him with another suplex, but Kite pushed Jonah away and hit him with a clothesline. The crowd booed as Kite started stomping on Jonah before picking him up and throwing him into the ropes. However, the crowd cheered as Jonah springboarded off of the 2nd rope and hit Kite with a springboard European Uppercut before going for the pin.
Ref: 1…2
"That was a nice looking move by Jonah!" Bob exclaimed as Kite kicked out as Jonah grabbed both of his legs and the crowd cheered as he attempted to hit the Giant Swing, but Kite kicked Jonah in the knee once again before getting back to his feet and attempting to put Jonah in position for a DDT. However, the crowd cheered as Jonah picked Kite up and threw him face-first onto the floor.
"And Kite once again becoming a victim of Jonah's freakish strength!" Striker exclaimed as Kite crawled to the corner, but Jonah ran at him with a double foot stomp to the back before rolling him up in an Oklahoma Roll.
Ref: 1…2.
"Jonah is dominating Kite in the early goings, but Kite is still able to hold on!" Striker exclaimed as Jonah picked Kite up and hit him with a European Uppercut before hitting him with a scoop slam before he attempted to climb up the ropes, causing the crowd to cheer louder. However, those cheers quickly turned to boos as Dipper got up onto the apron and started yelling at Jonah while the referee was telling Dipper to get down.
"Dipper apparently afraid that his title reign will be in jeopardy!" Bob exclaimed as Jonah kicked Dipper away, but while the referee was distracted with him, Kite kicked Jonah in the balls and threw him off of the top rope, sending Jonah falling onto the canvas back first before Kite rolled him up with a Crucifix pin.
Ref: 1…2.
"Kite taking advantage of the opportunity, and is now in complete control of this match," Kotoko explained as Kite started stomping on Jonah's back and chest again before picking him up and throwing him into the corner. Jonah attempted to push Kite away, but Kite kicked Jonah in the gut and started punching Jonah in the face. Jonah started staggering away from the corner, but Kite started clubbing his back with elbows before pushing him down to the ground.
"Kite's a bit too cocky here. Jonah is going to remember that," Striker explained as Kite ran the ropes and hit a running boot to the back of Jonah's head before going for the pin.
Ref: 1…2
"That was a vicious kick to the back of the head! I'm surprised that Jonah didn't stay down from that one," Kotoko exclaimed in shock as Kite picked Jonah up and hit him with a backbreaker before hitting him with an STO while Dipper was cheering him on. The crowd chanted 'Kite Sucks' as Kite ran the ropes and hit a jumping senton onto Jonah's chest before going for another pin, hooking both of his legs
Ref: 1…2
Kite pounded the mat in frustration as Dipper told Kite to keep on Jonah. Kite responded by mounting Jonah and started punching him in the face, but Jonah was able to push him off, causing the crowd to cheer.
"And Jonah may still have some fight in him!" Bob exclaimed as Jonah was able to get back to his feet, but Kite ran the ropes, dodging an attempted clothesline and hitting Jonah with a spear before going for another pin as Dipper yelled at Jonah to stay down.
Ref: 1…2.
"And Jonah, much to Dipper's chagrin, does not stay down and is still in this fight!" Kotoko exclaimed as Kite grabbed Jonah's arms and put him in a Butterfly Lock, much to the crowd's chagrin. Dipper yelled at Jonah to tap out as Jonah attempted to get back to his feet, but Kite turned Jonah around, kneed him in the gut multiple times, and hit him with a Full Nelson Bomb before locking Jonah back into the Butterfly Lock. The crowd started cheering and clapping for Jonah, and Jonah reciprocated by rolling out of the hold, causing the crowd to cheer before kicking Kite in the face.
"Jonah is not letting this opportunity at the International Championship slip away so easily!" Striker exclaimed as Kite attempted to roll onto the apron, but Jonah grabs Kite by the hair and hits him with more European Uppercuts. Jonah then picked Kite up in as Military Press, and much to the crowd's delight, threw Kite at Dipper before running up onto the top turnbuckle and banging on the turnbuckle, causing the crowd to cheer louder and chant for him.
Ref: 1…2…3
"Oh my God! Jonah just threw Kite at Dipper, sending them both down!" Striker exclaimed as Jonah noticed that the two of them were getting back up. As a result, Jonah jumped off of the top turnbuckle and ran the ropes before hitting both Dipper and Kite with a Suicide Dive that sent them both back down. Jonah then got up and jumped onto the fan barricade and posed with the fans, causing them to cheer and chant for him even louder as the referee continued to count.
Ref: …4…5…6
Jonah rolled back into the ring to break the count and then rolled back out. Jonah then grabbed Dipper by the hair and threw him into one corner of the fan barricade, and threw Kite into another corner before he ran at Dipper and hit him with a Running European Uppercut, and then ran to the other corner and did the same thing to Kite.
"I think Jonah is prepping for the Uppercut Train!" Kotoko exclaimed as Jonah repeatedly hit both Dipper and Jonah with Running European Uppercuts until he sent Dipper through his corner, causing the crowd to cheer before he grabbed Kite and threw him back into the ring. When Kite staggered back to his feet, Jonah hit him with two clotheslines, a spinebuster, picked him up for a Gory Neckbreaker, hits it, and then keeps Kite on his knees before running the ropes and hitting him in the back of the head with a Running European Uppercut and turning him around for the pin.
Ref: 1…2..
Jonah immediately got back to his feet once Kite kicked out and deadlifted Kite off of the ground, much to the crowd's delight before hitting him with multiple Gutwrench Suplexes and going for the pin again.
Ref: 1…2..
"I'm impressed at Kite's ability to kick out of all those forceful Gutwrench Suplexes!" Bob exclaimed as Jonah picked Kite back up and put him in a Military Press, causing the crowd to cheer as he walked around the ring with Kite in the Military Press before he dropped Kite with a Very European Uppercut before going for yet another pin.
"This has to be it!" Striker exclaimed as the referee went down for the pin just as Dipper started getting back to his feet.
Ref: 1…2..
Dipper was barely able to put Kite's foot on the bottom rope before the referee counted to three. The crowd booed as the referee waved off the count and Jonah looked down at Dipper, trying to look innocent. Jonah then grabbed Dipper by the hair through the middle rope and started punching him in the face as Kite rolled out of the way. The crowd cheered and chanted 'Fuck Him Up!' as Jonah continued to punch Dipper in the face. However, Kite was able to get back to his feet and hit a back suplex onto Jonah before he climbed up to the top rope.
"Dipper's distraction looks to have paid off!" Striker exclaimed as while Dipper rolled back out of the ring with a hand on his face, Kite dived off of the top rope with a splash, hitting Jonah in the midsection before going for the pin.
Ref: 1…2..
Jonah barely rolled his shoulder out as Kite looked at Dipper and then the cheering crowd with his eyes as wide as dinner plates due to shock as he stomped on Jonah multiple times before picking him up. Kite put Jonah in position for the Data Drain (Celtic Cross), but Jonah, much to the crowd's delight, was able to roll out of the hold and put Kite in position for the Giant Swing, causing the crowd to explode into cheers as Kite tried to reach for the ropes.
"Looks like Kite's going swinging!" Kotoko exclaimed as the crowd cheered as Jonah started swinging Kite with the crowd counting along. Dipper was yelling at Jonah to let Kite go, but Jonah only stopped after 20 swings, and then locked a disoriented Kite in the Sharpshooter, causing the crowd to cheer as Kite attempted to get to the ropes, but was too dizzy from the Giant Swing to do anything but scream in pain. Dipper once again got onto the apron and Jonah let Kite go and knocked Dipper off of the apron with a clothesline.
"Why did Jonah let Kite go? He had him beat!" Kotoko asked as Jonah went back to Kite's seemingly prone body.
"Because even if Kite tapped out, Dipper could've distracted the referee and the submission wouldn't have counted," Striker explained as Kite was able to roll up Jonah in a small package pin.
Ref: 1…2..
Jonah kicked out and Kite kicked Jonah in the gut before attempting to hit him with the Data Drain (Celtic Cross) again before Jonah was able to elbow the side of Kite's head. The crowd cheered as Jonah escaped Kite's grasp and hit him with the Neutralizer before going for the pin, hooking both of Kite's legs.

*Bell Rings*
"Ladies and gentlemen, here is your winner, Jonah Von Bruken!" Tony Chimel announced as the crowd cheered while Dipper looked on at the referee holding Jonah's right arm up in victory as he started banging the mat in frustration.
"Despite Dipper's best efforts, Jonah not only defeated Kite but earned a shot at the International Championship at New Horizons!" Striker exclaimed as Jonah ran away from the referee and ran up to the top turnbuckle and raised both of his fists, causing the crowd to cheer louder as Dipper pulled an unconscious Kite out of the ring.
"Jonah looks to have all the confidence in the world heading into New Horizons after this performance!" Kotoko exclaimed as Jonah climbed down from the top turnbuckle and made a motion that the belt was going to be his as Dipper yelled at Jonah while holding his championship, almost inadvertently dropping Kite on the ground.
"If the BTWF fans had any doubt that Jonah still had what it took to get a championship, then hopefully that doubt has been assuaged after that win!" Bob exclaimed as the camera panned to the back where BTWF Women's Champion Lucy Heartfilia was talking to her bodyguard, Onslaught.
"This is ridiculous Onslaught!" Lucy complained as she was breathing in and out angrily as Onslaught nodded in agreement.
"Completely ridiculous Mrs. Heartfilia," Onslaught agreed as he shook his head at the predicament they were in.
"I mean…what right do Sunny and Overhaul have to make me defend my championship in a Fatal 5 Way match at New Horizons!?" Lucy asked furiously.
"They're just jealous of you Mrs. Heartfilia," Onslaught responded.
"Of course they are Onslaught, but that is no excuse for putting me and my championship reign honoring the Luna Collins Retirement Tour in jeopardy!" Lucy complained more.
"I tried to talk to the BTWF Board of Directors, but they said there was no reason to cancel the match, so our hands are tied," Onslaught said as Lucy shook her head with her fingers pinching the bridge of her nose.
"Jiro is the only one who's been named a contender, right?" Lucy asked with frustration lacing her voice, as Onslaught responded with a nod. "Well, she should be easy to win over to my side. I mean, she's just some low rent musician, right?" Lucy asked as Onslaught shrugged.
"It's worth a try," Onslaught responded as he and Lucy left to go find Jiro as the camera panned to a commercial break, talking about a crossover show with a promotion called VGCW (Video Game Championship Wrestling).

The camera then panned to the interview area, where Chika Fujiwara was standing next to Mirio Togata.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm here with one of the BTWF's newest signees, Mirio Togata. Mirio in the main event, you will take on the BTWF World Heavyweight Champion Katsuki Bakugo in a non-title match. How're you feeling going into it?" Chika asked as Mirio rubbed his chin with his fingers before responding.
"I know Bakugo. He's an angry man with self-confidence issues. I, on the other hand, am very confident in my abilities to defeat him. Bakugo has shown that he relies on cheating and aggression, so I just have to make sure he doesn't get to cheat or become too aggressive," Mirio explained as Fiore's Top Team (Gray Fullbuster and Lyon Bastia) walked up to him and chuckled at him.
"Really? 'I'm going to prevent him from cheating'. You know that sucking up to these idiot fans isn't going to get you any wins," Lyon mocked as Mirio rolled his eyes at the duo.
"At least I don't need to rely on cheating, unlike Bakugo and you two, to win my matches," Mirio countered, as Gray rolled his eyes and laughed.
"Well, you'd have to win some matches first. Plus, this is a business about winning, and if you don't want to win by any means necessary, then why are you even here?" Gray asked as Chika looked at the three of them like she was looking at three dancing trees juggling beehives.
"I'm here to show that I can become a star with all my fans behind me, and if I resorted to your tactics, then I wouldn't be the hero that these fans can look up to! And when I get into the ring with Bakugo tonight, I'll defeat him 1-2-3 completely clean!" Mirio exclaimed as he left the interview area, leaving Gray and Lyon amused and Chika shocked before the camera panned to the stage where 'Get Up!' by Korn played, causing the crowd to cheer as Fry and Bender came running out of the back.
"The following contest is a tag team match scheduled for one fall. Approaching the ring, from New York, New York, Fry and Bender, the Best Friends!" Tony Chimel announced as the crowd to continue to cheer while Fry and Bender made their way to the ring, hi-fiving every fan they could. Fry even stopped in the middle of the entranceway to give a few pictures to some young fans.
"Fry and Bender haven't teamed up in a while due to Fry becoming the International Champion, so this is a treat to the longtime BTWF fans!" Bob exclaimed as Fry ran underneath the bottom rope as Bender ran up the steel steps with the crowd continuing to cheer for them and chant their names.
"Last week, the Best Friends challenged the BTWF Tag Team Champions to a non-title match tonight so they could show the BTWF fans that they're still a top tier tag team," Striker explained as 'Omen in the Sky' by CFO$ played as they over-exaggeratedly hugged in the middle of the ring, causing the crowd to cheer louder as Robbie and Thompson came out of the back.
"And their opponents, from Gravity Falls Oregon, they are the BTWF Tag Team Champions Robbie Valentino and Thompson, the Brotherhood!" Tony Chimel announced as the two took their tag titles off of their waists and clinked the two titles together.
"Robbie and Thompson have shown to be fighting champions so of course, they wasted no time accepting the challenge laid down by the Best Friends," Kotoko further explained as Robbie and Thompson walked to the ring, with Thompson slightly limping from the match they had with the Vaudevillians at Cyber Sunday.
"But you have to wonder how Robbie and Thompson are going to fare against Fry and Bender at less than 100%," Bob noted as Thompson and Robbie climbed into the ring and gave their titles to the referee before they extended their hands out for a handshake, which the Best Friends accepted before the referee separated the two. Once they were separated, the bell rang with Fry and Robbie starting the match.
"And this match is underway!" Striker exclaimed as Fry and Robbie locked up in the center of the ring. Fry was able to push Robbie into the corner and when he let go, Fry started punching Fry in the gut before attempting to Irish Whip him into the corner, but Robbie was able to counter into a headlock. The crowd chanted for both men as Fry was able to get back to his feet and attempted to Irish whip Robbie off of him, but Robbie kept him locked in, causing Thompson to cheer him on. Fry was able to get back to his feet again and punched Robbie in the gut before slipping out of the headlock, scoop slamming Robbie, and locked him in a headlock of his own, with the crowd continuing to cheer.
"Fry and Robbie exchanging headlocks in the middle of the ring, trying to gain the momentum," Striker explained as Robbie was able to get back to his feet, but Fry kneed Robbie in the gut a couple of times before taking him down with a front facelock. The crowd continued to cheer as Robbie attempted to punch and club Fry in the back, but Fry started clubbing Robbie in the back in response. Robbie tackled Fry into his corner, but Bender tagged himself into the match, causing the crowd to cheer as Bender kicked Robbie in the chest.
"Bender is now in this match! Let's see how he and Robbie do against each other," Kotoko stated as Fry picked Robbie up while still in the front facelock, and Bender held onto Robbie's legs. Fry dropped Robbie's chin onto his shoulder with a stunner, allowing Bender to hit a Wheelbarrow Suplex before going for the pin.
Ref: 1…2
"That was a very unique move by the Best Friends!" Striker exclaimed in surprise as Bender and Fry briefly hugged before Fry went back onto the apron, allowing Bender to pick Robbie up and punch him in the face before Irish whipping him into the ropes. Robbie was able to counter an attempted clothesline into a hurricanrana, sending Bender down before Robbie hit a running dropkick onto Bender while he was on his knees and went for the pin.

Thompson ran into the corner and hit a running back elbow onto Bender's head before hitting him with multiple shoulder thrusts. However, when Thompson attempted to grab Bender again, Bender kicked Thompson in the gut multiple times before going up to the second rope. Bender attempted to dive off Thompson with a double ax handle, but Thompson was able to catch him and hit Bender with an Overhead Belly to Belly suplex, causing the crowd to cheer.
"What a counter by Thompson! He sent Bender halfway across the ring!" Striker exclaimed as Thompson walked to where Bender was and went for the pin.
Ref: 1…2.
"You'd have to believe with the force Thompson threw Bender, that would've been a three if Thompson wasn't trying to be careful with his leg," Bob noted as Thompson picked Bender up, but Bender hit a jawbreaker on Thompson before using all his strength to tackle Thompson into the corner and tag Fry into the match. The crowd cheered as Fry ran the ropes and hit a Running Forearm Smash onto Thompson's head before Bender went back onto the apron, and Fry attempted to hit Thompson with a punch, but Thompson countered with a chop to the chest so hard that Fry fell to his knees.
"Oh, God!" Kotoko exclaimed as she winced as Fry fell to the mat as the crowd winced and cheered in response.
"Did he learn how to chop from WALTER!? Holy crap!" Striker exclaimed before Thompson went down for a pin.
Ref: 1…2.
Fry kicked out, and Thompson responded by getting up and running the ropes to attempt a leg drop, but Fry was able to roll out of the way, causing Thompson to fall onto the canvas leg first. The crowd cheered as while holding on to his marked chest, Fry got up and tagged Bender into the match before holding onto Thompson's leg.
"Fry able to dodge the big leg from Thompson, and now he and Bender have a target!" Kotoko exclaimed as Bender stomped on Thompson's leg while Fry was holding onto it. Fry then got up and grabbed one leg while Bender grabbed another leg. The crowd cheered as the two of them hit a Wishbone onto Thompson before Bender ran the ropes and hit a running dropkick to a seated Thompson while Fry ran the ropes and was able to hit his own leg drop onto Thompson before Fry gave Bender a brief side hug and left the ring.
"Fry and Bender are back in control of this match, thanks to their excellent strategy of targeting the leg," Bob noted as Fry grabbed Thompson's leg and hit him with a Foot DDT before punching his knee. Fry then ran the ropes and springboarded off of the 2nd rope to hit an elbow drop onto Thompson before going for the pin.
Ref: 1…2
"That was a nice springboard elbow by Fry! It's not every day we see Fry springboard, and when he does, it's usually effective," Kotoko explained as Fry grabbed Thompson's right leg before kicking the back of his knee and smashing the back of leg onto the ring canvas. Fry then ran the ropes and hit Thompson with a running knee drop to Thompson's head before going for another pin.

"Thompson isn't giving up this match without a fight!" Kotoko exclaimed as Bender started pounding on Thompson's knee to attempt him to get him to stop crawling to the ropes.
"That is why Thompson and Robbie are considered fighting champions! No matter what they are willing to fight until the very end to show all the fans why they are the best tag team in the BTWF!"

*Bell Rings*
"Ladies and gentlemen, here are your winners, the BTWF Tag Team Champions, Robbie Valentino, and Thompson, the Brotherhood!" Tony Chimel announced as the crowd cheered while the referee held both Thompson and Robbie's arms up in victory.
"Fry and Bender put up a hell of a fight, but in the end, Robbie and Valentino were able to show the Best Friends why they are the Tag Team Champions!" Striker exclaimed as Fry got back into the ring and checked on Bender while the referee gave the BTWF Tag Team Title belts back to Robbie and Thompson.
"The question now is who will challenge the champions at New Horizons for the titles?" Bob asked as Fry helped Bender up and extended their hands to Robbie and Valentino. Robbie and Valentino put their titles over their shoulders and accepted the handshake, causing the crowd to cheer.
"Gather 'round everyone and witness the debonair devastation of such exquisite sophistication; Miyuki Shirogane and Akira Tsubaki; the Vaudevillians!" an old-timey voice announced, causing the crowd to boo as Miyuki and Akira walked out on the stage with microphones in their hands. Robbie and Thompson looked as though they were going out to confront them, but Miyuki started taking.
"Pardon us, gentlemen, we couldn't help but notice that tag team classic you were putting on, and we felt like coming out to applaud you on your efforts," Miyuki explained as he and Akira gave the teams a round of applause before Akira started talking.
"However, we felt like, as gentlemen, it is our duty to inform the both of you that we were so close to winning those tag team titles from you, so we would like to politely ask for a rematch," Akira explained as Robbie and Thompson looked at them with confusion on their faces while Fry and Bender looked more annoyed.
"Allow us to explain why we deserve it. Fry and Bender were able to target Mr. Thompson's leg because of what we did at Cyber Sunday. That is proof that had you not gotten lucky, myself and Mr. Tsubaki would be wearing the tag team championships around our waists right now. And that is why we ask that you two give us our rematch," Miyuki explained as Robbie looked as though he was thinking about it. However, Sunny walked out, causing the crowd to cheer and confronted the Vaudevillians.
"Last I checked, none of you make the matches here. That's my job. Now, if you two want a shot at the tag team championships, I was planning on having a tag team gauntlet in a couple of weeks to determine the #1 contenders. But I will tell you what; if you guys can beat a team of my choosing next week, then you guys can enter the tag gauntlet," Sunny explained as Akira and Tsubaki looked at Sunny annoyed.
"Wait, why do we have to earn our way in when you already have this, and presumably the rest of the teams, planned?" Akira asked as Sunny chuckled before he responded.
"Because you're wasting valuable TV time complaining about this, and you need to give that time back. Therefore, you will next week," Sunny responded before he turned around and went back to his office as the crowd cheered while the Vaudevillians glared at both teams in the ring before leaving in a huff.
"What an announcement by the one of the Intensity General Managers, Sunny Bridges!" Kotoko exclaimed as Thompson, Robbie, Fry, and Bender left the ring and hi-fived fans on their way to the back.
"But the question is who is this mystery team going to be?" Striker asked as the camera panned to a commercial break, once again talking about Video Game Championship Wrestling.
*Commercial Break*
*Commercial Over*
The camera panned to the interview area where BTWF Women's Tag Team Champions Ruby Rose and Yang Xiao Long were standing next to Scott Stanford.
"Ladies and gentlemen I'm here with the new BTWF Women's Tag Team Champions, Ruby Rose, and Yang Xiao Long, and I have to ask you two how you feel about defending your championships against Patty and Liz Thompson of the Conglomerate?" Scott asked as Yang chuckled before taking the microphone.
"Well Scott, they did beat us once but rest assured me and Ruby are not going to let that happen. Whether it be here in the BTWF or VCGW at the upcoming crossover show, we're going to be the ones standing with our arms raised," Yang responded as Scott nodded before bringing the microphone back underneath his mouth.
"You appear to have your usual confidence going into that match, but next week you two will team up with Maka Albarn and Winry Rockbell to team up against the Conglomerate, Louise Belcher, and Lisa Simpson. What are your thoughts about going into the ring with a slew of potential other contenders?" Scott asked as Ruby this time responded.
"Maka and Winry are talented as the people saw from the tag tournament, but we're not going to go easy on them if they do become contenders. As for Lisa and Louise, we've beaten them before, and we'll do it as many times as it takes if it means we get to keep our titles," Ruby responded before Tohru ran up at Ruby with a bicycle kick to the side of her head before Patty and Liz tackled Yang to the ground and started pounding on Yang while Tohru was stomping on Ruby. Security came to the interview area and pulled the Conglomerate away from the tag champions before the camera panned to the stage, where 'Nightmares' by Conquer Divide was playing.
"Well the Conglomerate are making it clear that they want to have gold like their boss, Lucy Heartfilia," Bob noted as Juvia Lockser came running out of the back as the lights in the arena turned pink and light blue as she looked at the cheering crowd and gave the stage a double ax handle, causing a giant blast of blue pyro to go off behind her.
"The following contest is scheduled for one fall. Approaching the ring, from Magnolia Fiore, the Rain Woman Juvia Lockser!" Tony Chimel announced as Juvia continued to make her way to the ring with the crowd cheering for her all the way.
"Speaking of our Women's Champion, Juvia took the champion to her limit a couple of weeks ago here on Intensity, and she has been foaming at the mouth for another opportunity at the BTWF Women's Championship," Striker explained as Juvia climbed up to the top of the turnbuckle via the steel ring post, causing the crowd to cheer louder as Juvia hit the top turnbuckle with a double ax handle before jumping back down to the middle of the ring.
"Well…I wouldn't describe it quite like that, but Juvia has had a huge boost in confidence since that performance over the champion," Kotoko responded as Juvia went into the corner to stretch, as the lights turned pink and purple as 'And the Horse He Rode On' by Reluctant Hero played, causing the crowd to boo as Madison came out with her usual pink and purple cowgirl hat, waistcoat, and cowbell attached to a bullrope.
"And her opponent, from Atlanta Georgia, Madison!" Tony Chimel announced as the crowd continued to boo while Madison continued to walk to the ring, twirling the cowbell around her finger as she glared at Juvia in the ring. The crowd continued to boo at Madison but she paid them no mind.
"Madison and Rally have been embroiled in a vicious rivalry, and we saw Madison cost Rally her match against Jiro last week," Bob explained as Madison threw her cowbell into the ring and rolled in after it. The crowd booed as she got up, picked up her cowbell, and whipped the top turnbuckle with her bullrope before taking off her hat and waistcoat.
"Remember, this is a match to determine who will be the next participant in the Fatal-5-Way at New Horizons for Lucy Heartfilia's BTWF Women's Championship," Striker explained as the bell rang. Madison and Juvia locked up in the corner, trying to gain a leg up in the early goings of the match, and Madison was able to take advantage with a couple of knees to the gut before pushing Juvia into the corner. Madison cupped Juvia with her fingerless glove covered right hand before clubbing her in the chest multiple times.
"Madison using her Southpaw style to take the advantage in the early part of this match," Bob noted as Madison Irish whipped Juvia out of the corner and into another one. However, Juvia was able to climb up to the top rope and hit a corkscrew crossbody onto Madison, causing the crowd to cheer as she went for the pin.

"What a counter by Juvia! Madison definitely did not see that coming!" Kotoko exclaimed as Juvia grabbed Madison and put her in a headlock. The crowd cheered as Madison was able to get back to her feet and punch Juvia in the gut, but the crowd's cheers continued as Juvia was able to keep the headlock locked in. Eventually, Madison poked Juvia in the eye, allowing Madison to escape the headlock, send Juvia to the ground with a snapmare, and put her in a chinlock, causing the crowd to boo as Madison dug her knee into the top of Juvia's back.
"Madison putting Juvia in the rear chinlock, trying to slow the pace of this match to make sure she doesn't get caught off guard again," Striker explained as Juvia was able to get back to her feet, but when Madison attempted to turn Juvia around, Juvia hit her with a headbutt, causing the crowd to cheer and wince as Madison staggered backwards into the ropes.
"Ouch! Juvia may have broken Madison's nose with that headbutt!" Striker exclaimed as Juvia grabbed Madison when she rebounded and hit her with a back body drop before running the ropes and hitting her with a knee drop to the face. Juvia then picked Madison up and threw her into the ropes again, but Madison was able to counter another back body drop attempt by kicking Juvia in the face, running the ropes, and sending Juvia to the ground with a clothesline before going for the pin, much to the crowd's chagrin.
Ref: 1…
"And Madison may have rung Juvia's bell with that clothesline!" Kotoko responded before Madison picked Juvia up and attempted to hit her with a Perfect-Plex early, but Juvia was able to counter with a small package roll-up.
Ref: 1…
"It was way too early for Madison to put Juvia away with that Perfect-Plex," Bob stated as Juvia picked Madison up and ran her head into the top turnbuckle in the corner multiple times before turning her around and punching her in the gut multiple times before the referee pulled Juvia off of her. The crowd booed as Madison poked Juvia in the eye when she came back into the corner before attempting to throw her out of the ring. However, the crowd cheered as Juvia was able to land on her feet and rush back into the ring. The crowd cheered as when Madison turned around, Juvia hit her with a hurricanrana and rolled into a pin.
Ref: 1…2
Madison kicked out and attempted to roll out onto the apron, but Juvia picked her up and hit her with multiple European Uppercuts, sending her staggering into the ropes again. Juvia then ran the ropes and hit a Cactus Clothesline onto Madison, sending them both falling out of the ring, causing the crowd to cheer.
"Juvia has knocked her and Madison straight out of the ring!" Striker exclaimed as Juvia picked Madison up and threw her into the fan barricade before punching her in the face until she fell to a seated position. The crowd cheered even louder as Juvia backed away slightly before running at Madison with a running knee strike to her face.
"I have never seen this aggression out of Juvia before!" Kotoko exclaimed as the referee started to count as Juvia began stomping on Madison's chest.
Ref: 1…2…3
"Juvia knows that this could be her only opportunity at the BTWF Women's Championship for a long time, and she wants to make sure she gets that shot!" Striker exclaimed as Juvia picked Madison up by the hair. However, Madison was able to tackle her into the steel apron back first, causing the crowd to boo as Madison sent her into the apron back first a couple more times before throwing her into the fan barricade.
"I think Madison just took this match over with all these shots to the back!" Bob exclaimed as Madison picked Juvia up again and pushed her into the fan barricade again, this time midsection first.

"Madison keeping the attack on the midsection and back going, which is the smartest thing she can do if she wants to win this match!" Striker exclaimed as Madison picked Juvia up and started kneeing her in the back before picking her up in a side slam position. The crowd booed as Madison walked around with Juvia in the side slam position before slamming her down onto the mat. Madison, however, picked her back up in the side slam position. Madison winked at the crowd before dropping Juvia's back on her knee with a backbreaker before going for another pin, rubbing her wrist in Juvia's face.

Ref: 1…2...
"Juvia is still in this match, but if Madison keeps targeting the back, then she might not be in this match much longer," Bob predicted as Madison pounded on the mat in frustration before grabbing Juvia's arms and locking her in a seated abdominal stretch, causing the crowd to boo as Madison yelled in Juvia's ear to give up. Juvia yelled back at her saying that she wouldn't, and Madison responded by clubbing her in the chest and midsection while continuing to stretch her.
"The seated abdominal stretch is locked in, and Juvia may have to tap out right here!" Striker exclaimed as Juvia tried to pull her way out of the hold, but Madison kept a tight grip on her as she continued to apply the pressure as the fans tried to will Juvia back into the match by clapping and chanting for her.
"I don't think Juvia is going to tap out here! Juvia getting a shot at the Women's Championship means so much to her. Juvia wants to stop only being known for Gray and wants to stand on her own two feet, and she believes that the best way of doing that is to become the Women's Champion!" Kotoko exclaimed as Juvia was able to headbutt Madison in the face multiple times, causing the crowd to cheer as Madison let go of her. As Madison went into the corner, holding onto her now bloody nose, Juvia got back to her feet and ran the ropes.
"Juvia may have gotten back in this match, Kotoko!" Striker exclaimed as Juvia attempted a clothesline into the corner, but Madison countered with a knee to Juvia's face before attempting to roll Juvia up with a Victory Roll up but put her foot on the ropes.
Ref: 1…2..
The referee noticed that Madison's feet were on the ropes and canceled the pinfall. Madison, enraged by this, kicked Juvia in the chest before running the ropes and hitting Juvia with a knee to the gut while she was on all fours.
"Kotoko, I understand what Juvia is trying to do with her career, and it's very admirable, but she has to realize that she needs to focus on the longevity of her career," Bob countered as Madison picked Juvia up and put her in the Gory Special, causing the crowd to boo as Juvia started screaming in pain as Madison walked to the middle of the ring to make sure that Juvia couldn't get a hold of the ropes.
"Speaking of that Bob, Juvia is locked in this painful submission hold which could possibly break his back!" Striker exclaimed as Juvia started elbowing the sides of Madison's head, causing the crowd to cheer as Madison loosened her grip. Juvia attempted to get back on her feet, but Madison attempted to grab her and put her back on the Gory Special. However, Juvia was able to flip in front of Madison, causing the crowd to cheer louder before he hit a hard knee strike on Madison's face.
"Ow! Madison's getting a free nose job in this match!" Kotoko joked as Juvia staggered into the corner as Madison glared at Juvia after looking at the blood that was pouring out of her nose. Madison attempted to run at Juvia, but Juvia was able to roll out of the way and Madison ran into the top turnbuckle head first before hitting Madison with a back suplex, causing the crowd to cheer as Juvia waited for Madison to get back on her feet.
"Juvia looking to finally get back in this match!" Bob exclaimed as when Madison staggered to her feet, Juvia ran at her with two double ax handles, picked her up, and hit her with a reverse atomic drop before picking her back up and hitting her with a snap swinging neckbreaker. The crowd cheered as Juvia then ran the ropes and hit a jumping leg drop onto Madison's throat before running the ropes again and hitting her with a running dropkick to the side of her head.

However, Madison was able to poke her in the eyes and push her away, causing the crowd to boo, before turning her around and hitting her with a Broken Neck Symphony (McGillicutter) before she went for another pin.
Ref: 1…2..
Juvia rolled her shoulders off of the mat, and Madison started pounding the mat in frustration as she yelled at the referee that she had won the match.
"Madison can't let herself get frustrated. She has to remain focused on the match," Striker advised as Madison mounted Juvia and started punching her in the face until the referee pushed her off. However, much to the crowd's chagrin, Madison went back on Juvia and continued punching and elbowing her in the face. The referee once again pushed her off as he went to check on Juvia. While the referee was distracted, Madison went to reach for her cowbell, but the crowd cheered as Rally Vincent appeared and took the cowbell away.
"It's Rally! She's here for a measure of revenge against Madison!" Kotoko exclaimed as before Madison could react, Rally hit her in the face with the cowbell before dropping it and running to another side of the ring.
"Madison is probably unconscious because of that shot to the head!" Bob exclaimed as Juvia was able to get back to her feet. Noticing that Madison was down, Juvia picked Madison up, and hit her with the Rain Maker (Go-Home Driver), causing the crowd to cheer before she went for the pin.

"Ladies and gentlemen, here is your winner, the Rain Woman Juvia Lockser!" Tony Chimel announced as the referee raised Juvia's hand in victory as the crowd cheered her. Rally nodded at Juvia with a smile on her face as she made her way back to the locker rooms.
"With no small assistance from Rally, Juvia has punched her ticket to the Fatal-5-Way at New Horizons!" Striker exclaimed as Juvia let go of the referee and rolled out of the ring before she jumped over the fan barricade and into the fans' waiting arms, causing them to cheer even louder.
"Juvia may be over the moon now, but she needs to remember that she still has to win the Fatal-5-Way to win the BTWF Women's Championship," Bob stated as Madison rolled out of the ring with a hand over her bloody nose, and saw Rally chuckling at her. Madison exploded and ran at Rally, with the two brawling all the way to the back, causing the crowd to cheer as Rally started kneeing Madison in the gut while pushing her to the back. Security and several referees started running after them to make sure they didn't hurt themselves or the arena with their brawl.
"Rally and Madison are really going at it! Can we get some cameras in the back!?" Kotoko asked as the camera did pan to the backstage hallways where Rally and Madison were still brawling, with Madison grabbing Rally by the hair and slamming her head down on a chest before throwing her into the wall. Rally, however, was able to grab Madison by the hair and throw her into the wall.
Before the fight could get any more violent, the referees and security were finally able to separate the two before Overhaul came and walked over to the two.
"Alright you two, you guys hate each other and the fans want to see you fight, so here's what we're going to do; you two will face each other at New Horizons in a Street Fight!" Overhaul exclaimed as Rally and Madison looked at him with smiles on the faces.
"Sounds damn good to me! I can't wait to beat your ass all around the arena!" Madison yelled at Rally, who looked ready to break away from security and tackle Madison back down to the ground.
"Oh, you think that's going to happen! Bitch, I will make you wish you never even looked at me!" Rally yelled before Overhaul snapped his fingers, returning their attention to him.
"And to make sure that we have this match at New Horizons, you two will be banned from touching each other for the next two weeks. Oh, and security, take these two out separately," Overhaul told the security, who did as they were told before Overhaul left and went back to his office and the camera panned to a commercial break.

The camera panned to the backstage area, where Juvia was drinking from a bottle of water while she was leaning on the wall. BTWF Cruiserweight Champion Crona Gorgon came up from in front of her and gave her a congratulatory kiss on the cheek, which Juvia quickly returned.
"Hey, I just saw your match out there, you did great," Crona complimented as Juvia hugged him in response.
"Thanks, sweetie, how're you feeling?" Juvia asked as she looked at the bandages around Crona's midsection and arm.
"I'm getting better. The trainer said I would be fine to compete at New Horizons. But let's not talk about that, let's go to my locker room and watch who wins this triple threat match up next," Crona offered as he grabs hold of Juvia's hand, and led her to his locker room so they could watch the match. The camera then panned to the stage, where 'Speedom' by Tech N9ne played, causing the crowd to cheer as Hitman Jones came running out of the back before stopping at the top of the stage and going 'WOOO!' at the crowd, who did it back.
"The following contest is a triple threat match scheduled for one fall. Introducing first, from Tom's River New Jersey, Ace Hitman Jones!" Tony Chimel announced as the Hitman ran all the way to the ring before sliding underneath the bottom rope and running up the top rope. Hitman looked on at the cheering crowd, yelling 'WOOO!' before jumping down onto the canvas.
"Hitman looks to get momentum back on his side after his loss last week to Gray Fullbuster of Fiore's Top Team," Striker explained as Mike Bennett's 'Miracle' theme song started playing, causing the crowd to boo as TJ Detweiler came out from the back with a microphone in his hand.
"Ladies and gentlemen, tonight is the first part of my quest to have the BTWF Cruiserweight Championship around my waist. I know all of you think I'm some sort of joke and that I can't be taken seriously as champion," TJ started as the crowd cheered at TJ inadvertently insulted himself.
"But you all are wrong, and I have a list of the reasons why I would make an excellent Cruiserweight Champion. If you would all join me," TJ continued as he pulled a scroll out of his rope and unfurled it, causing the crowd's boos to get louder.
"Oh boy…," Kotoko sighed as TJ cleared his throat and was about to start reading his list. However, the crowd cheered as Kurt Bale came from the back and hit TJ with a running double ax handle to the back of TJ's head before he grabbed TJ by his hair and dragged him to the ring.
"Thank God for Kurt Bale!" Kotoko exclaimed as Hitman told the referee to ring the bell, which the referee did. Hitman then ran the ropes when he saw Bale and TJ in front of the ring, and dived onto the both of them with a corkscrew crossbody, causing the crowd to cheer louder as Hitman picked up TJ and threw him back into the ring.

However, TJ was able to grab Bale's pants, causing the crowd to boo as he put Bale in a Powerbomb position.

"The two former GTS superstars going at it right now!" Kotoko exclaimed as Hitman and Bale locked up in the middle of the ring. Bale was able to get the advantage by putting him in a headlock while the crowd was cheering and chanting for both men. Hitman was able to punch Bale in the gut a couple of times and Irish whip Bale into the ropes. Hitman attempted to hit Bale with a kick, but Bale was able to duck the kick and grab both of Hitman's arms, but Hitman was able to fight out of it and hit Bale with a jawbreaker before putting him in a front facelock, with the crowd continuing to chant for both men.
"These two are evenly matched so far, being very familiar with each other due to their matches together in GTS," Bob explained as Bale was able to send Hitman into the corner with a running shoulder tackle before hitting him with multiple shoulder tackles to finally release himself from the front facelock. The crowd continued to cheer as Bale hit several knees to Hitman's gut before Irish whipping him into another corner.

"Mirio Togata…I remember you from school…one of the top students and was someone I was supposed to respect. But hearing you talk about your heart and how you're an inspiration makes me want to vomit. You claim to have an 'all-mighty heart' but if it comes to it, I will take that 'all-mighty heart' out and stomp on it until it's nothing but paste.

Bob exclaimed as Hitman hit Gray and Lyon in the back and the gut with a steel chair and chased them to the back, causing the crowd to cheer before Bakugo came running from the back, rushing right past Hitman before Bakugo hit a boot to Mirio's head before throwing him back into the ring.
"And here comes the BTWF World Heavyweight Champion rushing in to take advantage of a damaged Mirio!"

*Bell Rings*
"Ladies and gentlemen, here is your winner, the BTWF World Heavyweight Champion, Katsuki Bakugo!" Tony Chimel announced as the crowd booed while Bakugo immediately rolled out of the ring and grabbed the World Heavyweight Championship from the timekeeper and posed with it while Mirio was laying down in the ring holding his leg.
"Katsuki Bakugo has won the match, but Mirio has nothing to be ashamed of in this match!" Kotoko exclaimed as Bakugo showed off his World Heavyweight Championship to the booing fans.
"Despite being attacked by Fiore's Top Team, Mirio was able to fight until the very end, even being able to survive the Indian Deathlock," Striker agreed as Mirio pulled himself back to his feet using the top rope, looking disappointed in himself as Bakugo went up on the stage, and looked into a camera that was on the floor.
"Deku! You see what happened to your buddy!? That's what's going to happen to you at New Horizons!" Bakugo yelled into the camera before he continued his way to the back as Mirio glared and shook his head at Bakugo before rolling out of the ring himself.
"Bakugo making his message to Midoriya clear; he is not afraid of Midoriya or the stipulation that he has in mind," Bob explained as the camera panned to the back, where Lucy Heartfilia and Onslaught were finally able to find Jiro, who was playing her acoustic guitar.
"Hello Jiro, I was hoping to see you tonight, you were a really tough woman to find. You see, you're one of the people who I have to defend my championship against," Lucy started to explain, and despite Jiro not looking at Lucy and continued to play on her guitar, Lucy continued to talk.
"Look, I know that you want to have my championship around your waist, but if you help me retain my championship in the Fatal-5-Way match, I can get you a record deal that will make you into a millionaire. So…what do you say?" Lucy asked as Onslaught held a contract in front of Jiro's face. Finally, Jiro stopped playing her guitar and looked up at Lucy and Onslaught with a smirk on her face before getting up on her feet.
"No," Jiro sang while strumming one last note on her guitar before turning around and walking away from Lucy and Onslaught. Lucy took the briefcase out of Onslaught's hand and threw it onto the ground in frustration before the two left Jiro's locker room as the camera faded to black.
