BTWF StarShow (Night 1 Part 5)
The camera panned to the stage, where the lights in the arena went down, turning yellow with yellow laser lights surrounding the stage. The crowd began booing as 'Broken Dreams' by Shaman's Harvest played, revealing Denki Kaminari, who came walking out of the back with a hooded ring jacket. Kaminari had his head down, the crowd continuing to boo as Tim Scam applauded his charge from behind, before Kaminari raised both his fists in the air, causing the lights in the arena to brighten. Kaminari then shot his head up, revealing the fact that he was wearing a skull mask that was lighting up.
"The following contest is scheduled for one fall, and it is for the BTWF Championship! Introducing first, accompanied to the ring by Tim Scam, from Musutafu Japan, Denki Kaminari!" Tim Barr announced, the crowd continuing to boo as Kaminari walked down the entranceway while rows of golden pyro were shooting out of the stage continuously, swatting away the attempted high-fives from the fans in the front row while continuing to focus on the ring. Scam applauded his charge, constantly encouraging him by saying that this was the moment they had been training for. Kaminari didn't respond vocally to Scam's encouragement but nodded in agreement while he continued making his way to the ring.
"Kaminari has been waiting for this moment since the second he turned on KIRISHIMA; the opportunity for the BTWF Championship!" Nigel exclaimed as once Kaminari made it to the ringside area, took off his mask, revealing a focused-looking Kaminari, who had some yellow and black face paint underneath his eyes. Kaminari was also wearing yellow contact lenses, looking around at the sold-out stadium crowd, the crowd continuing to boo him as Kaminari took his ring jacket off, gave it to Scam, and walked over to the steel steps.
"We've seen a more aggressive and more focused Kaminari these past few months, and it all comes to a head tonight! Can we see Kaminari finally achieve his dream of becoming the BTWF Champion or will Natsu be a roadblock to Kaminari's road to success!?" Okabe asked as Kaminari walked up the steel steps, jumped to the top rope, and shot both his fists in the air causing some fireworks to shoot outside of the arena, and across the top of the stadium and in the sky. Kaminari looked into the camera, and smirked at them before jumping down the canvas, walking to the center of the ring, and shooting both his fists up.
"With how furious he's made Natsu, he may have to consider the fact that he might leave Las Vegas without the BTWF Championship," Beth explained as Kaminari walked into the corner, staring at the stage while stretching. After a moment, the crowd exploded into cheers as a tank came roaring to life while it was being lifted up to the stage. Natsu Dragneel then jumped out of the door to the tank, the crowd continuing to cheer as Natsu pressed a button on the tank, allowing the tank to shoot out some fireworks into the air. The crowd continued cheering as Natsu aimed the tank up in the air, hitting the button several more times, before doing his 'Dra-gon-eel' taunt along with the crowd.
"Natsu really knows how to make an entrance! Truly worthy of a StarShow main event!" Nigel exclaimed as Natsu continued driving the tank down the entranceway with 'Indestructible' by Disturbed playing, the crowd continuing to cheer and chant for Natsu as he showed off the BTWF Championship from around his waist. Natsu then jumped out of the door on top of the tank and climbed over to the side of the tank before it continued to drive. Kaminari and Scam looked on unimpressed as the tank continued driving to the ringside area, leaning over the side of the tank, high-fiving fans in the front row before doing the 'Dra-gon-eel' taunt with only one arm.
"And his opponent, from Magnolia Fiore, he is the BTWF Champion, 'Indestructible' Natsu Dragneel!" Tim Barr announced as the tank stopped at the ringside area. Natsu jumped off the side of the tank, and looked over at Scam, almost daring him to do something, before he rolled into the ring from underneath the bottom rope. Natsu then jumped back to his feet and spun around while raising his fists in the air before running into the corner, and jumping onto the top rope. The crowd continued cheering as Natsu once again did the 'Dra-gon-eel' taunt along with the crowd before taking the BTWF Championship off of around his waist, jumping back down, and stomping over to Kaminari, pushing the BTWF Championship into his face.
"Oh! Natsu trying to fire Kaminari up before their championship match! This may not be the best idea!" Okabe exclaimed as Kaminari pushed Natsu away, telling him that he hoped Natsu wasn't too attached to the BTWF Championship. Natsu then handed the championship to the referee, who raised it over his head while the champion and the challenger continued arguing. The referee then handed the BTWF Championship to one of the ringside attendants on the outside before telling the timekeeper to ring the bell, starting the main event of StarShow Night 1.
"And just like that, this match is underway, and Natsu and Kaminari look ready!" Beth exclaimed as Natsu and Kaminari immediately locked up in the middle of the ring, with Kaminari attempting to wring Natsu's arm, but the crowd cheered as Natsu took Kaminari down with a Hip Toss and put Kaminari in an Armbar while he was seated. Kaminari got back to his feet and attempted to take Natsu down with a Fireman's Carry, but Natsu was able to keep a hold of the Armbar, shaking his head with a smile on his face while the crowd cheered. Kaminari then got back up to his feet once again, attempting to push Natsu off of him, but Natsu kept hold of Kaminari's arm, the crowd cheering as Natsu pushed Kaminari down and locked him in a Hammerlock.
"Natsu targeting the arm, which could come back to bite Kaminari when he tries to go for the AfterShock DDT," Okabe explained as Kaminari rolled back onto his feet, and put Natsu into a Grounded Headscissors, the crowd booing as Kaminari shook his arm to get some feeling back into it. Natsu attempted to slide out of the Headscissors, but Kaminari kept him grounded, the crowd booing as he flipped them off. However, Natsu was able to perform a headstand while in the Headscissors, the crowd cheering as he was able to escape Kaminari's grip while doing a headstand walk out of Kaminari's Headscissors. Kaminari attempted to knock Natsu back down, but Natsu was able to backflip to dodge the attempt at an attack and hit a rebounding Kaminari with a couple of Japanese Arm Drags before attempting to lock him back in an Armbar, but Kaminari was able to headstand, and kip back up to his feet, hitting Natsu with an Arm Drag of his own, the crowd booing as Kaminari went into the corner, and laid down on the top rope, telling the booing fans that this was too easy.
"Kaminari might want to watch his bragging, as the match isn't even close to over yet," Nigel explained as Natsu attempted to run into the corner, but Kaminari was able to jump out of the way, roll to the other side of the ring, and attempted to hit Natsu with a Clothesline, but Natsu was able to knock Kaminari down on his back with a Legsweep. Natsu attempted to hit Kaminari with a Standing Moonsault, but he was able to dodge and attempted to hit Natsu with a Dropkick, which Natsu swatted away. The crowd continued cheering as Natsu ran the ropes, attempting to hit a Rolling Fire (Rolling Thunder), but Kaminari was able to roll out of the way and attempted to knock him down with a Superkick, but Natsu rolled Kaminari up for the first pinfall of the match with a Rolling Body Scissors pinfall.

"What a surprise pinfall from Natsu! Kaminari looks furious that he almost caught out there!" Beth exclaimed as Kaminari attempted to hit Natsu with a kick to the side of the head, but Natsu ducked and hit him with a Superkick to the gut before throwing him into the corner. Natsu then ran into the corner, hitting him with a Running Shoulder Thrust to the chest before backflipping away from the corner. When Natsu attempted to hit another Running Shoulder Thrust into the corner, Kaminari responded by hitting Natsu by lifting his knees up, sending Natsu's head crashing into both of his knees. The crowd booed as Kaminari hit Natsu in the chest with multiple Knife-Edge Chops before attempting to throw him into the corner. However, Natsu was able to jump onto the top rope and hit Kaminari with a Diving Twisting Crossbody before going for another pin.

"Kaminari kicking out again, and he looks irritated that Natsu's been outwrestling him since the onset!" Nigel exclaimed as Kaminari immediately ran at Natsu with a Running Knee to the gut, the crowd booing as Kaminari clubbed Natsu in the back several times before kicking him in the face, sending him staggering into the ropes. Kaminari ran the ropes and attempted to send Natsu out of the ring with a Clothesline over the top rope, but Natsu responded by hitting Kaminari in the chest with a Headbutt from the apron. Natsu then springboarded back into the ring and hit Kaminari with a Springboard Hurricanrana, the crowd continuing to cheer as when Kaminari got back to his feet, Natsu hit him with several punches to the body before running the ropes and springboarding onto the middle rope, hitting Kaminari with a Springboard Side Kick to the side of the head.
"Natsu beginning to take full control of this match, almost knocking Kaminari's jaw off with that Springboard Kick!" Nigel exclaimed as Natsu hit Kaminari with a Standing Moonsault before picking him back up, attempting to hit him with a Suplex, but Kaminari was able to counter with several Knee Strikes to the top of the head, allowing him to escape Natsu's grasp. Kaminari then ran the ropes, attempting to hit him with a Big Boot to the side of the head, but Natsu dodged, attempting to hit him with a Spinning Leg Lariat, but Kaminari blocked the Leg Lariat. Kaminari picked Natsu up in a Powerbomb position and attempted to throw him into the corner, but Natsu was able to respond with several punches to the side of the head before rolling him up with a Sunset Flip pin.

"That's the third time Kaminari's been caught out by the champion! I guess his cockiness isn't working as well as he thought it would!" Beth exclaimed with a smirk on her face as Kaminari attempted to kick Natsu in the gut when he got up, but Natsu blocked the kick and countered by hitting Kaminari with a Step-Over Spinning Wheel Kick, sending him staggering into the ropes. Natsu then ran the ropes, attempting to send Kaminari over the top rope with a Clothesline, but Kaminari was able to throw him overhead and onto the apron as a counter. Kaminari then went onto the apron and hit Natsu with several punches before picking him up and attempting to Powerbomb Natsu off of the apron, but the crowd exploded into cheers as Natsu countered mid-Powerbomb with a Frankensteiner from the apron, sending Kaminari crashing onto the floor.
"Kaminari being sent crashing from the apron and right in front of us thanks to that Frankensteiner!" Nigel exclaimed as Natsu ran off the apron, hitting Kaminari with a Running 450 Splash from the apron and onto Kaminari's chest. The crowd continued cheering as Natsu picked Kaminari up, grabbed him by the hair, and dragged him to the fan barricade, slamming the top of his head on the top of the fan barricade several times before hitting him with a Gourdbuster onto the barricade, sending Kaminari's chest crashing against the barricade. Natsu then jumped back onto the apron, did his 'Dra-gon-eel' chant along with the crowd, and hit Kaminari with an Apron Spinning Wheel Kick to the barricade and the back of Kaminari's neck.
Ref: 1…2…3
"Natsu has been dominating this match since they went to the outside! And that Apron Spinning Wheel Kick definitely knocked the air out of Kaminari!" Nigel exclaimed as Natsu picked Kaminari back up, and hit him with several punches to the side of the head before smashing the back of his head back into the fan barricade. Natsu then slid back into the ring, waited for Kaminari to get back up to his feet, and ran the ropes to hit Kaminari with a Suicide Dive that sent Kaminari's back crashing into the fan barricade. Natsu then went back into the ring and attempted to hit Kaminari with a Somersault Senton, but the crowd booed as Kaminari was able to catch Natsu mid-dive into a Powerbomb position.
"Oh! Kaminari showing off some strength there, catching Natsu right in the middle of another dive!" Okabe exclaimed as Natsu attempted to fight out of Kaminari's grasp with some punches, but the crowd booed as Kaminari flung Natsu into the fan barricade several times, before hitting him with an Apron Powerbomb. However, Kaminari told the booing crowd that he wasn't done yet, and hit him with a Powerbomb onto the padded concrete. Natsu writhed on the ground in pain, and Kaminari continued the onslaught with multiple stomps to the small of the back, the crowd continuing to boo as Kaminari flipped the audience off.
Ref: 1…2…3
"Kaminari going after the back of Natsu, excellent strategy when dealing with a high-flyer, especially one like Natsu with no regard for his own safety!" Okabe exclaimed as Kaminari then picked Natsu up, and threw him back first into the apron, causing Natsu to fall onto his knees. Kaminari then backed away slightly before hitting Natsu with a Running Knee Strike to the side of the head, sending Natsu's head bouncing off the side of the ring apron. The crowd continued booing as Kaminari mounted Natsu's back, and hit him with multiple clubs to the face and elbows to the top of the head before picking him back up and hitting him with a Vertical Suplex onto the steel ring apron.

Okabe exclaimed as Kaminari stomped on Natsu's head and back several times before shooting both his fists up at the booing crowd, telling them that they were looking at the next BTWF Champion. Natsu tried getting back to his feet, but Kaminari was able to respond quickly, hitting Natsu with an STO Backbreaker/Reverse STO combination before picking him back up, and hitting him with a Freefall Drop before knocking him back down with a Sliding Discus Forearm to the side of the head. Kaminari then ran the ropes and springboarded off the middle rope to hit Natsu with a Freefall Elbow Drop to the chest.

"Kaminari's continuing to go after the back. The referee might have to check on Natsu because it looks like even moving is causing immeasurable pain," Okabe noted as Kaminari stomped on Natsu's back a couple more times before putting him in a Single Leg Boston Crab. The crowd continued booing as Natsu ground his teeth trying to keep himself from yelling out in pain while Kaminari continued pulling Natsu's leg back. Kaminari pulled Natsu's leg back to the point where Natsu's foot was touching his own head, the crowd booing as Kaminari smashed the top of Natsu's head with his own foot.
"Kaminari taking advantage of Natsu's flexibility, trying to knock him out!" Nigel exclaimed as the crowd began chanting for Natsu again, and Natsu responded by pulling his chest off of the canvas and trying to make his way to the ropes. Kaminari attempted to keep his feet firmly planted on the canvas, but this didn't stop Natsu from continuing to make his way to the ropes. After another moment, Natsu was able to grab the bottom rope, the crowd cheering as the referee pulled Kaminari off of him. The crowd quickly went back to booing as Kaminari rushed back over to Natsu and stomped him on the back multiple times before picking him up, and hitting him with a Scoop Slam into the ropes back and legs first.
"Kaminari quickly snuffing out whatever fire that Natsu was trying to ignite!" Okabe exclaimed as Kaminari climbed back up to the top rope, the crowd booing as Kaminari balanced himself on the top turnbuckle, and attempted to hit Natsu with a Frog Splash of his own. However, the crowd cheered as Natsu raised his foot up, sending Kaminari's face crashing into Natsu's foot and him staggering into the ropes. Natsu pulled himself back up to his feet and began exchanging punches and forearms with Kaminari, the crowd cheering and booing accordingly. However, the crowd booed as Kaminari was able to block one of Natsu's punches, and hit him with a Jumping Knee Strike to the face.
"Kaminari using those expert knees once again, sending Natsu to another planet!" Beth exclaimed as Kaminari attempted to Irish whip Natsu into the ropes, but the crowd exploded into cheers as Natsu was able to jump onto the top rope, and springboard off the top rope with a Springboard Twisting Forearm.

Nigel exclaimed as Natsu picked Kaminari up, threw him into the corner, and hit him with a Spinning Corner Wheel Kick before backflipping out of the corner, and hitting him with a Jumping Corner Spin Kick. Natsu then put Kaminari on the top rope, but when he tried to climb back up to the turnbuckle as well, Kaminari kicked Natsu's hands away, the crowd booing as Kaminari attempted to hit Natsu with a Diving Missile Dropkick, but Natsu responded by hitting Kaminari with a Spinebuster while he was diving.
"What a counter by Natsu! I think Kaminari just got a small taste of what Natsu's going through thanks to that Spinebuster!" Beth exclaimed as Natsu began climbing up to the top rope, though he was slowed down due to his hurt back. However, by the time Natsu finally made it up to the top rope, Kaminari ran into the corner, hitting Natsu with a Jumping Knee Strike, sending Natsu falling off the top rope and onto the floor in front of the commentary table. Though Natsu landed on his feet, he almost fell to his knees due to the pressure his back went through trying to land on his feet from that high fall. While Natsu was stunned, Kaminari ran the ropes and hit him with a Suicide Forearm Shot to the side of the head.
"Kaminari throwing himself through the ropes like a missile, sending his forearm right into Natsu's jaw!" Okabe exclaimed as Kaminari jumped back onto the apron and climbed back up to the top rope. The crowd booed as Kaminari waited for his opponent to get back up, and when Natsu did, Kaminari dived off the top rope, hitting Natsu with a Diving Crossbody. Kaminari then got back to his feet, and looked over at the BTWF Championship seated in the timekeeper's area, telling the booing crowd it was going to be his before grabbing Natsu's head, and slamming it on top of the commentary table multiple times before hitting him with a Fisherman's Suplex.

"Holy God! Natsu just sent Kaminari crashing through the announce table! This could be the end of Kaminari's dreams of obtaining the BTWF Championship!" Okabe exclaimed as Natsu, after staggering back to his feet, threw Kaminari back into the ring, rolling in after him, and going for the pinfall, hooking both of his legs back.

"Kaminari with another brutal submission that is targeting the back the challenger has been targeting since the early goings!"

"Kaminari almost stole the title there! Thankfully, Natsu is going to make Kaminari work to keep him down!" Beth exclaimed as Kaminari picked Natsu up, attempting to once again hit him with the AfterShock DDT (Future Shock DDT). However, Natsu pushed Kaminari away, hit him with a Standing Step-Up Enziguri, and then ran the ropes, knocking Kaminari into the corner with a Shotgun Dropkick. Natsu then stretched his back before going into the corner and putting Kaminari on the top rope, hitting him with several punches to the side of the head before following him up there. Kaminari fought back with several punches to the side of the head, but Natsu responded with several Palm Strikes to the side of the head.
"Kaminari and Natsu are brawling on top of the turnbuckles, and they need to be careful before they fall off and right to the floor!" Beth exclaimed as Natsu climbed up onto Kaminari's shoulders, attempting a Top Rope Victory Roll, but the crowd booed as Kaminari was able to push Natsu away, sending his back crashing against the steel ring post. Natsu let out a wail of pain as Kaminari smirked at the booing crowd while moving his hair out of his face. Kaminari then turned around and began hitting multiple forearms to the side of Natsu's head before grabbing both of his arms in a Double Underhook position. Kaminari looked all around the booing crowd, gave the slit-throat taunt, and hit Natsu with an Indiscriminate Shock (Double Underhook Piledriver) from the top rope. Kaminari then dragged Natsu away from the corner and the ropes before going for the pinfall, hooking both of his legs back.

"Ladies and gentlemen, here is your winner, and the NEW BTWF Champion, Denki Kaminari!" Tim Barr announced, the crowd booing as Kaminari sat up with his mouth agape in shock and his eyes widened in disbelief as he listened to Barr's announcement. Kaminari's shocked face turned into a wide smile as the referee walked over to the side of the ring, grabbing the BTWF Championship from the ringside attendant. The referee handed Kaminari the BTWF Championship while he was still recovering from the shock of winning the big one, and he responded by grabbing the BTWF Championship out of the referee's hands, pulling himself back up to his feet, and raising the BTWF Championship over his head.
"I…I can't believe it. Kaminari actually did it! Kaminari's become the new BTWF Champion!" Beth exclaimed in shock as Scam rolled into the ring, and hugged Kaminari while he continued showing off his newly won BTWF Championship while Natsu rolled out of the ring, holding the side of his head in pain. A couple of medical personnel checked on Natsu on the outside while Kaminari let go of Scam, patting him on the back before running into the corner, jumping onto the top rope, and raising the BTWF Championship over his head with both hands. The crowd continued booing, though the camera panned on several people who looked shocked that Kaminari had actually done it.
"They said it couldn't be done, and that Kaminari couldn't do it, but now Kaminari can call himself BTWF Champion, one of the top champions in the entire Fanfiction Wrestling Multiverse!" Nigel exclaimed as Kaminari jumped off the top rope, and rolled out of the ring with Scam following close behind. While Natsu continued receiving medical attention on the outside, Kaminari playfully kicked dust on him, the crowd booing the disrespect as he and Scam walked up the entranceway. Kaminari then turned around, smirking at all the booing fans before once again raising the BTWF Championship over his head, pyro going off from around the star-shaped TitanTrons and the stage.
"The real test for Kaminari is how he defends that championship. Winning it is one thing, but can he hold onto it and show the fans that this wasn't a fluke?" Okabe asked as Kaminari continued celebrating his big win while pyro continued going off behind him and Scam. Natsu looked at the celebrating pair in disgust and disappointment as he could barely move due to the pain in his back and neck. The show faded to black with Kaminari turning around while continuing to show off the BTWF Championship, and walking back up the ramp, only telling the cameras on his way to the locker room that we were now in the Age of Kaminari.
