In a disclosed location of a studio wrestling arena with a large titantron with two side LED screens. Rampway ring level, with some side steps and tables setup at the sides.
[PAC: Delight Extra Realize]
Karma Akabane enters the arena with Manami Okuda.
Ring announcer; Minami Fuyuki
'Please welcome your Men's General Manager, Akabane Karma. And his second-in-command, Okuda Manami!'
Manami helps Karma enter the ring. The ring ropes are covered in presidential inspired banners and ribbons.
'Welcome citizens of the Pro Wrestling of Animation roster, and may I say that this is gonna be a glorious year for my company PWA. You all may not know that Mr. Canary is out in a coma, hoping he'll be alright. And the reason why Ms. Tsukino isn't here to contribute her side in her General Manager role for the women's division is due to the fact that she, and Mr. Chiba are currently going through a divorce as we speak. So I'll be appointing Ms. Okuda to run the Women's Division as acting General Manager till Tsukino is ready to come back to work.'
Karma and Manami are looking at the titantron screen to see a brand new security examination for all PWA employees, earlier the day.
Backstage: Earlier
The White Fang of Louis, Adam Taurus, Shirou Ogami, & Hitomi Uzaki are being stopped by security, being forced to be searched.
'Come on, we have access here! We're long time employees!' Adam shouted out to them.
Louis is walking up to the security. 'What law do you have the right to examine my friends here?!'
'We're only here to secure protection for the higher class.'
Kazuto Kirigaya, Seiya Ryuguin, Tatsuya Shiba, Asuna Yuuki, Blake Belladonna, Komichi Akebi, Marin Kitagawa, & Ristarte are walking by without being searched.
'Oh come on!'
'Why can they go without…' One of the security guards midsection struck Adam, which forced him to headbutt one of them down then the guard rapidly pulled all of the White Fang out of the security gate and handcuffing them all.
Blake laughs at this. 'As per usual Adam, you seem to rely on hatred rather than reason. So this is what you deserve, and guards, please rough him up.'
The guards are taking Adam away from the rest of the White Fang out of the building.
Meanwhile outside of the building, CENSORED (Riley Freeman, Harriet Bree, Don Gracefield, & Ogun Montgomery) are all being arrested.
'What the hell man?! We ain't doing nothing!'
'Mr. Akabane doesn't want criminals to run around in his property nor doesn't want those to cause a distraction to his employees.'
'Fuck that man! We're employees here! We signed our renewals.'
'We all were ordered to take you all down to the station to make sure you aren't armed and dangerous.'
The White Fang came out to join them while Ochaco passed them all by without being examined and being given an immunity pass.
Gwen and LeShawna are being removed from the building, Gwen is shoving back a security guard but then being held back by the police while LeShawna is being forced to join in with Harriet in the squad vehicle.
Both the World American Regime & the Victorian Empire are making their way into the building without a problem while Charlie Morningstar, Joey Wheeler, Jolyne Cujoh, Yang Xiao Long, Luz Noceda, Amity Blight, Hunter Wittebane and Crimvael are being tossed out.
The Bullet Kingdom enter the building without a problem, and even snickering and laughing at the others who are being tossed out, with Yuri Katsuki being literally tossed out while Victor Nikiforov is being forced out, alongside with DOA (Izuku Midoriya, Oscar Pine, & Atsuko Kagari).
The Black Bulls (ASTA, Noelle Silva, Luck Voltia & Magna Swing), Naofumi Iwatani & Raphtalia are being interrogated outside, Nagito is enjoying a drink inside.
Every face is facing a challenge to get in, all but Erza Scarlet due to being a World Champion.
Ring
Karma and Manami are approved by Akabane's regime in the new PWA.
'Don't worry folks, they managed to make their way into the back. It's just a security measure, for the safety of others who are permitted into the building. All of them are here and…'
[Sasha Banks: Sky's the Limit]
Erza Scarlet, the PWA Women's World Championship
She power walks down to the ring, making her way to the ring. Going up to Karma's face but Manami held her back and in between them.
'Woah, woah, woah. What is the matter, Ms. Scarlet?' Karma snickering at Erza.
'You know damn well why I'm here. Why the hell did you pull that shit in front of the entire company? When I got here, I was here to do the Champion's Ceremony to come face-to-face with my potential Challengers, but seeing that shit just ruins the mood.'
'Your complaints are valid, but I don't really care. But this is how things are gonna work in PWA. If you wanna send a complaint to your General Manager, then please report to Ms. Okuda here, and she'll come to me for any real authority decisions. Otherwise, we'll be over here to listen to the birds sing. But before we do, we do have actual new policies for this year. I may be the highest authority figure here in PWA but there are some rules I can't fully abolish without Mr. Canary's approval and signature. But thankfully, the Champion's Rule can be leanate when needed as long as it's agreeable to both General Managers, which both positions are me. So to all the World Champions, both singles and tag teams, you don't have to defend your World Championships every event. So unlike Arlelt, Tsukino, and Parker in the past where they're a bunch of sick authority figures by having all Champions being defended at each and every event.'
'What's wrong with that?' Erza barks up. 'It's our job to prove why we earn these belts. We aren't here to show how lazy we can be after winning these belts.'
'Bold statement'
'So no, I won't laze around for my challengers, I'll face them all in every event.'
The Women's World Championships
[The Pinnacle: Power]
Asuna Yuuki, the Diamond Champion Blake Belladonna, & the World Tag Team Champions Komichi Akebi & Marin Kitagawa, PERFECTION
They all made their way into the ring.
Asuna walks up to Erza, going face-to-face with her. Both of them start mouthing off to each other over the World Championship, till Blake slightly shoves Asuna to her side, her turn to mouth off to Erza for the World Championship itself.
'If you two want this, I'll take you both on. Next event, triple threat or handicap match, I'll work with it.'
Asuna grins at the thought. 'You think I'm gonna accept that? No. No. Well, maybe Blake here, but I'm gonna wait till I get my chance to become World Champion, once again, Scarlet.'
'Not enticing enough? Alright then, I'll give my Golden Ticket away to Rias and whoever is interested, and challenge for those two belts as well. Double Jeopardy Trios or Quartet Match, how about that?'
Marin spoke up. 'Actually, I won't mind taking a few events off, so I would like to take a break from evently title defenses.'
Manami answers, 'Actually, this was one of the rules that Mr. Akabane can't be abolished, all Championship defenses are mandatory to start the year off. But if you successfully defend your title, then you can take a few events off.'
Both Marin and Komichi seem happy about that.
Blake's face shoves Erza to ask Manami a question. 'And what about me, specifically me and not the King & Queen, and those homeless trash boy belts? Can we have events off?'
'No. That's the problem about being labelled as the "workhorse belt", you Need to prove how much of a workhorse you really are. But the pressure rule will be on hold so you won't be facing multiple challengers at once. Workhorse belts are mandatory while World Championships can only defend them till specific events, but it is optional for them to defend on outsider events.'
Komichi and Marin slightly pull Blake back and let her know that they got her back for the belts, alongside Asuna.
Erza turns to Manami. 'And what are these specific events?'
'Cannonball Dash, Imperial Crown, Deadman's Hand, & Wrestle Festival'.
'Then I want those same rights!' Blake shouted out to Manami.
'Wow, talking like a true cat. Want to be lazy.' Erza turns to Blake.
Blake grins at Erza. 'Well, I would say that you're acting like a true try hard, but you're more of a Mary Sue, so don't try too hard to bury all the competitions. We can't find your golden shovel anywhere.'
'I'll buy a shovel, paint it gold and hit you with it. How about that?'
Asuna snickers. 'Such a brute, but I guess that's what you get from a red headed bombshell, since they're just a bunch of walking timebombs, ready to explode. And just like your fanbase, which is nothing but boys with no taste, you're all about to shoot your loads within seconds.'
'I don't want to know what you and your husband do in your spare seconds, but just remember who the one who beat you to win this World Championship. You can step up to the stage if you, but like last time we fought, I'm gonna beat you.'
Both Erza and Asuna are going head-to-head with each other with both of them taking off their jackets and ready for a fight.
[ECW: This Is Extreme]
Nobara Kugisaki and EMMA enter the arena.
Nobara is talking. 'Woah, woah, woah! As much as I want to kick the ass of miss little perfect up there right there, but you also forgot about this fact, Scarlet. I'm also a former World Champion, your first World Champion since Road 2 Gold, and during my title reign, I beat you in your own backyard for this belt.'
'And you deserve to win that hard earned victory.' Erza offers a handshake. Nobara accepted.
'Funny.' Asuna laughs. 'And I beat you for that World Championship at Deadman's Hand, and what happened since?'
'I main evented Night 1 of the Third Act.'
Blake snickers. 'And you lost to the Eva Braun of Anime. I main evented on Night 3 at 4ever, and I beat Charlie Morningbitch for this Championship.'
Nobara smirks at Blake then walks up to her. 'I'm sorry, Josie. I should learn my place, but I made Charlie tap out for the World Championship without any help at all.'
Blake is freaking out then goes up to a smirking Nobara till PERFECTION, and EMMA pulls them away.
EMMA spoke up. 'I'm not here to compete for the World Championship, since Nobara here is our World Champion in the SDM. While I'm gonna compete for those belts.'
Both Komichi and Marin look at her.
'I may never be considered as a World Champion contender, but I came to accept that as long as I bring a piece of gold within the group. So I can care less for what Championship it is. And if two plastic models can become Tag Champions, I guess that could be easy to win.'
Asuna spoke on their behalf. 'You think, you and the rest of your Shonen Death Machine freaks can stand toe-to-toe with people like us? People that are the literal definition of perfection? No, no, no, but if you do decide to step up to them, then I guess you're finally accepting your role as a silver plate meal for beings that are clearly above you. And whoever your partner will be among those freaks, they will beat you. If they feel like it.'
[AJ Styles: Demi-Gods]
Ruby Rose, leader of the Bullet Kingdom.
Ruby came out alone then made her way into the ring, right behind Blake then shoved her to the sides to walk up to Erza. Look behind to smirk at Blake.
'Sorry Blake, but like your role next to Asuna, you have to step aside for another team leader.'
Blake angrily goes up to Ruby but smirks away, holding up the Diamond Championship. 'You're right, Rose. I am taking a side step to a leader, right before I outshine them by being the most absolute perfect woman that everyone loves. Like you, since I had outshone you in our own show, since it's the BMBLB Show, and not the RUBY Show. Now please don't be homophobic to me, or else I'll send a Karen letter to Viz Media to send your ass as a background character.'
Erza snarks at Blake. 'You seem to be the one that loves to fight the gays just as much as the right wing does.'
Blake's eye twitches and loses composure till she takes a few deep breaths then smiles back at Erza. 'You're funny Scarlet. And how many black characters did you beat up with the power of white friendship?'
'I don't know? How many anime lists are you on by being popular?'
Ruby then turns to Erza. 'Listen here, Scarlet. We can talk about RWBY being a bad show, I can care less about it. But what I care about is winning that World Championship right there, because here's a fact between you three World Champions in this ring. I had held my Diamond Championship, nearly coast-to-coast with it till last November. But now, I'm aiming at a bigger prize.'
Erza scoffs at Ruby. 'And then where's your little band of dogs? Because this is the part where you usually sick them out and beat me down.'
'Maybe later. But there are two other dogs over there, because in the Bullet Kingdom, we're nothing but wolves.' Ruby points at Nobara and EMMA. 'And unlike the BK, the SDM are just dogs that need to be put down.'
EMMA jokes back, 'Like your show?'
Ruby turns to face EMMA.
'I think we haven't had a proper introduction; hi, my name is EMMA. The better main character version of you.' EMMA jokily held out her hand for a handshake.
She smacked the hand away. 'And I'm Ruby Rose, from a better series than yours.'
'You are aiming low if we're comparing anime series, because you must start that dick measuring contest to a handicap person. Then again, you're used to shit on them like it's a fetish.'
'And your series seems to love to have little kids holding up guns like a pack of school shooters.'
EMMA walked up to Ruby, but Nobara held her back then the entire Bullet Kingdom came out. Loona, Ninny Spangcole & Noel Niihashi.
'Then what are you gonna pull out next? Suicide jokes? Because we can ask Jaune back there to come on out and give you the Jack Kevorklan treatment.'
Ruby smirks at EMMA, 'And just like your friend Nobara there, I'll come back to life. But I'll say hi to Conny while I do.'
Nobara quickly held EMMA back with Erza.
'Like seriously, you want to bring out Jaune? He's already been stealing my spotlight for over 10 years now, and I don't want him out here.'
EMMA smirks at Ruby. 'I want to talk to a main character that actually matters, but if I want to talk to you Rose, I'll replicate a RWBY fan.'
EMMA covers her eyes with her hand.
"Wow! Ruby Rose, she's the greatest main character I had ever seen and I haven't seen any other anime but yours. There's nothing wrong with you, and you're the most perfect character and nobody shouldn't criticize you for anything."
Blake spoke up. 'Hey, hey, hey!'
EMMA and Nobara are looking at Blake and Asuna.
'What's wrong Belladonna?'
'Who the hell says that Ruby here is perfect? I slapped the shit out of Sun, I mentally and emotionally abused my parents who also beat whenever they got out of line, and I manipulated Yang to be my bitch of a partner, I even had to go down to her greasy private area. And I still got away from the fanbase, and I'm the most perfect character in our series. So calling Ruby a perfect main character is just offensive.'
Erza spoke up. 'Literally, everything you just said was offensive.'
'And I'm still perfect, so who cares.'
[Jimmy Jacobs: Sickness & Sorrow]
Junko Enoshima
She came out to join the group, but she walked around to sit on the guardrail.
'Alright, who invited her?' Nobara asks.
Erza spoke up. 'Actually, I'm glad she came out.' She slides out to confront Junko. 'If you want this? You got it, actually, you're first.'
Junko grins. 'I'm first? What did I do to earn your wrath?'
'Well, you insulted my friend Lucy, and then picked a fight with Fairy Tail. So yeah, that's my reason.'
'So does that mean I get it first, as in the first event?' Junko grins. Erza nods. 'And since you're offering the match, then let's make this interesting by having it as an Outlaw Rules Match?'
'That works for me, because I just want to kick your ass.'
Junko smirks. 'Then hand over a contract, please.'
Manami walks down to offer a contract then both women start signing it. 'It's official.'
Junko leaps off while everyone is baffled by whatever they just saw.
Ruby starts talking.
'Well, if you're gonna…'
[Ember Moon: Free the Flame]
Maka Albarn
Ruby slowly turns around to see Maka, who's wearing an old American Death Scythes T-shirt. Going around the ring and then entering.
'Hey Ruby. Have you missed me?'
'Hello, Maka. And no, I haven't. Actually, I was gonna gloat to you right today but after seeing you being part of a cult, you could use a vacation. And from one friend to another, I can give you a vacation. All it will cost, an arm and a leg.'
'Hold up, hold up, hold up. I'm here to make my claim for a World Championship. And since Scarlet here is offering title matches on the spot, I'll make it quick.'
Maka then slowly turns to Erza but then walks up to Komichi and Marin.
'I'm gonna go after those belts.'
Ruby starts laughing. 'Alright, what's your game here? Because in order to challenge for the tag team belts, you need a partner. And I'm not interested in reforming the American Death Scythes, which by the way, you can't use the name.'
Maka shrugs. 'I know. I ain't interested in reforming with a backstabbing bitch like you.' Ruby rolled her eyes at Maka. 'I'm actually in talks with Ryuko Matoi back there, and I'm not interested in the main World Championship, but I want to go back to my roots as a tag team girl. So mine as well find myself a partner to win those belts.'
Both Komichi and Marin are shaking their heads.
'Better hold onto those belts very closely, because I'm gonna win those.'
Asuna spoke up, 'You better back off right now, because you're not gonna have it. We're gonna keep these belts as long as we can, and with the recent rule that the World Championship matches aren't evently mandatory, we get to call the shots around here.'
Manami speaks. 'Actually, there is one event that the World Tag Team Championships will have to be defended, mandatory. And it's the Dreamwork event.'
PERFECTION then huddles up then nods.
'Doesn't matter to us, since we're gonna keep them. No matter what.'
[Cora Jade: Twisted Generation]
Amity Blight & Luz Noceda, Lumity
Luz and Amity are walking around the ringside area.
Luz is speaking for the team. 'That is cute and all, but I'm here to make a claim because Amity and I are gonna challenge for those tag belts. But we got an event that we're both happy to participate in this year. Actually, it's my debut event and I'm gonna be the Tag Team Champions by either going in or leaving the event with them.'
'And what event are we talking about?' Blake asks.
Luz then points at the original P'n'P: Prideful & Proudful T-shirt.
'So you're flat chested, so what?' Blake just doesn't care.
Luz chuckle. 'You don't get it, Blake. Then again, I am talking to a "el coño" and I doubt you will understand the situation there.'
'And what situation are you talking about?'
'You ain't gonna hide behind it, because Amity and I, we're gonna challenge you for the World Tag Team Championships.'
'Again, explain what you mean by situation?' Blake is being furious by Luz grinning at her.
'It's mandatory that all LGBTQ+ characters that are employed in PWA have to compete in P'n'P: Prideful & Proudful.'
Blake scoffs at her. 'Really? You think you're gonna get yourself a title shot by that rule?'
Luz held up her finger to Blake then walked up to Manami. 'I'm right, am I? Because I believe that's a rule that's Mr. Canary himself had made it and you can't change it, right?'
'That is correct.'
'Alright. And I'm seeing two perras that fit the qualifications for that ruling.'
Manami then nods. 'She is correct about that. Blake Belladonna, and Komichi Akebi has to compete in that night due to the legality of Mr. Canary's ruling.'
Komuchi is holding onto her belt while PERFECTION is throwing a tantrum about the decision.
'Hey, genius!' Asuna shouted. 'It doesn't mean that Komichi here will be defending the World Tag Team Championships, in fact, Marin needs to compete in a match in order to make that happen.'
[Mia Yim: Number One]
May Marigold
May is making her way down to the ring, and up behind PERFECTION.
'Oh, I'm so glad that I'm here for the fun of this division.'
Erza walks up to May. 'Glad you're here, since I'm planning on keeping my belt till the P'n'P event, I want to ask you, can you be my challenger for that night?'
May smiles at Erza. 'Listen Scarlet, I'm not here for your World Championship. No, no, no. You need a proper challenger for that belt. I'm actually here for those two.' May is pointing at Komichi and Marin. 'Yeah, that's right. I know Snappy must be enjoying her vacation away after Hanukkah, but I had been spamming her on her phone. Telling her that I'm going after the World Tag Team Championships, and I still want to fulfill that long desired moment of becoming the first Trans Women World Tag Team Champions. And what a better place to do it, is at Prideful & Proudful.'
Blake glares at her. 'Again, like Noceda here. Marin needs to be there in order to defend the World Tag Team Championships with Komichi.'
'Oh, I know. I heard Belladonna. Because if she's not gonna be there for Akebi, then little sailor, it's open season on your ass because if I ain't gonna win any tag titles that night, then I'm gonna rip it off of her cold dead hands. And Blake, since Asuna & Marin can't interfere due to the fact that anybody who isn't a Champion or a member of the LGBTQ+ community, will be fined.'
Luz is leaning down on the ropes. 'Akebi won't be walking out of that arena when we're done. Haré esa promesa.'
Ruby then grins. Walking up to Asuna. 'Yuuki. Perhaps we can work out on a deal here?'
'A deal?'
'Yes. Since I'm up in the air when it comes to my canon sexuality. Both Ninny and Noel don't have a canon sexuality status. But Loona here, she does have one. And she can protect your girl Akebi there, under one condition.'
'And that is?'
'Ninny and Noel get a World Tag Team Championship match?'
Manami interferes, 'You won't be able…'
'Yes, we can, because there's a loophole here. Since Komichi and Marin both have Golden Tickets, they can give them away. And what a way of payment.'
Asuna then walks up to Ruby. 'And what happens if we don't accept?'
'Ever saw what the big bad wolf did to granny? She'll show you what happens.'
Loona is laughing as she gestures towards Komichi with a finger gun.
[Lana: Ravishing]
Noelle Silva
She enters the arena as both Luck and Magna are providing security for her. 'Don't worry, Yuuki. I ain't here to compete in the trivial Tag Team division.'
All the World Tag Team Championships contenders said at the said time, "trivial?"
'First off, I apologize for that, but I had asked my friends Mimosa Vermillion, and Sol Marron to join up, but they're busy. So I'll be competing for the PWA World Championship. And after a rough year, losing the Queen Championship, I nearly won the Diamond Championship, I just needed one more push in order to become the World Champion.'
'And why would you want to become the World Champion?' Ruby spoke up.
Nobara adds. 'Yeah, I had to agree with Rose there. You're nothing more but Shonen Stiff.'
'A stiff?'
'Yeah, because you're nothing more but a product of what a Shonen Jump female character should be. You, Rose here but that isn't Goku's fault on that one, and the third one who hasn't come out here yet.'
'I'm sure that Uraraka back there has nothing on me, when it comes to female empowerment. And here in PWA, all she knows is how to lay on her back, and…'
[Miyu Amasaki: Light of the Delight]
Ochaco Uraraka
She slowly makes her way down to the ring, then the moment she's about to talk, Atsuko Kagari immediately jumps Ochaco from behind. Both of them start a brawl with each other.
Karma immediately stood up. 'Security! Get that wack job out of my arena, and rough her up a bit! And escort Ms. Uraraka safely out of the building, right now!'
Atsuko kept assaulting Ochaco till security pulled both of them apart, and slowly left the arena.
'I guess we won't be hearing what they have to say.' Noelle comments.
Ruby joins in. 'I don't know why Akko is mad? I would have done the same thing too if I had to marry a beta cuck as Deku.'
From the rampway, Ciel Soleil is making her way down to the ring announcer's booth and requesting a microphone. Making her way into the ring which made everyone baffled about it.
Ciel is prim and proper. "Ladies and gentlemen," Ciel leans towards May Marigold, "and I do mean, ladies and gentlemen." May flips her off. "I'm here to proudly introduce to you all, the members of the Victorian Empire, Her Majesty Empire. (Russian accent) Gina Boyd, (as Ami Naitou) Kiryuin Satauki & Higurashi Setsuna, and (British accent) Lady Cecilia Alcott!"
[Imperium: Symphony No. 9 in E Minor]
Cecilia, Gina Boyd, Satsuki Kiryuin & Setsuna Higurashi
They came out together then made their way down to the ring.
'Charming, charming, charming, Lady Soleil. I'm glad to receive such a wonderful introduction. Rather than getting on from a trashy Japanese valley gal. Or some Canadian who just got out of line when it comes to working pecking orders.'
Asuna agrees, 'Finally. Someone who sees things my way.'
'So does that mean you're not gonna punch Fuyuki down there?' Nobara asks.
Asuna grins at Nobara. 'What kind of a sick person I am? I don't beat up people that are lesser than me. I only beat up people that are trying to be equal to me. So as long as that trashy gyaru down stays in her lane, and does her job properly, then we'll work well.'
Cecilia agrees, 'Quite.' They stayed around at the ringside area with Ciel joining up with them. 'But sadly, Yuuki. Ladies Kiryuin & Higurashi here will be challenging for those Tag Team Championships, and even if they don't get them, then both Ladies Boyd & Soleil will be chasing those as well. As for me? I'll be challenging the World Championship, and I'll bring it to the Victorian Empire, Her Majesty Empire.'
'We may not have our one-on-one match up for this belt, but I'll promise you that I'll make you work for this win.'
'Charming, Scarlet. But unlike last time, where Ladies Kiryuin and Higurashi had been screwed over for the World Tag Team Championships. But nobody isn't gonna protect you when I challenge for that belt.'
Erza smirks at Cecilia. 'But sadly, you'll wish it was the Schnees that came to my aid since me and my red-headed friends are back there, we'll be itching for a fight.'
'This queen will slay, because I'm already a former PWA Queen Champion.'
'So did I, but at least I have a real man helping me retain those belts throughout the months.' Asuna pokes fun at Cecilia.
'I'm pretty sure a British man is twice the man than a Japanese one.' Cecilia is up on the apron to grin at Asuna while both Satsuki and Setsuna are agreeing with Cecilia.
Nobara spoke up. 'Listen Queen Alcott, I don't care about who's a man's man at this point. I'm only here to fight for that belt. And you say you slay? Bitch, I break Queens.' Lean to the side to face Blake, 'I already made one tap out.'
Blake is trying to start up a fight between the two with Nobara taunting Blake about it.
'Such barbaric reactions, but it would be for the best to let a beastly American and a wannabe tough gal Japanese women just go at it and fight.' Cecilia leaps off the apron, 'And when I win the World Championship, I'll be the second woman to become the World & Queen Champion in PWA.'
[AJ Lee: Let's Light It Up]
The PWA Queen Champion, Marinette Dupain-Cheng
She stays up at the stage then slowly makes her way down. 'This is good and all, and now we have all four women's champions in this conversation. I can't believe that I'm seeing so many former champions, but I'm here to make history. This year, and to rub it against Yuuki over there, I'm gonna become the first Women's Triple Crown. I've already been the Diamond Champion. I'm currently the Queen Champion, which qualifies as a Tag Team belt. There are only two belts here that I haven't won in either World Championships, but I'm currently eying that World Championship.'
Erza raised her belt while Marinette held up her belt. 'Bring it on, Queen.'
Blake immediately rushed up to hold up her Diamond Championship. 'Don't you forget that I'm currently the Diamond Champion, which means I'm more important than the both of you.'
Ruby spoke up. 'I made it important, Blake. Like usual, you're just piggybacking on me and acting like you're the greatest thing since sliced bread.'
'Rose, I'm always more important than you. And I'm the one who main evented Wembley Stadium as Diamond Champion.'
Marinette snarks. 'Next to Junko, you're currently the worst Diamond Champion.'
'How about I'll crush you like a bug, would you like that?'
'Then don't be too soured when I do beat you.' Marinette smirks at Blake to annoy her.
Asuna walked up to Marinette, 'You didn't beat me when I held the World Championship, so what makes you think that you can win the belt this year?'
'I've beaten you for this Queen Championship.' Asuna is annoyed a bit. 'And you haven't pinned me at all when you retain your World Championship. You didn't do it at Horror's Eve, and you sure as hell didn't pin me at the Third Act. So in true form, you never beat me in a match, and when it comes down to the wire, I'm the one who you can't beat.'
Asuna and Marinette go face-to-face.
[Adam Rose: Break Away]
Crimvael
They entered the arena then sat down at the stage area. 'I'm just here gonna make a quick announcement here, and Erza, you want a challenger for P'n'P? Then I'm your Challenger for it.'
Erza smiles then nods.
'Everyone here is trying to make history, but my goal is to become the first Intersex World Champion, and it would be amazing to win it at P'n'P, but I don't want to hand it over like an entitled brat. And seeing Blake there, I guess I'm offensive to her.'
Blake slowly turns to them. 'What fuck is that supposed mean?'
May spoke up. 'Come on, Belladonna. You want to be the only person in RWBY that is LGBTQ+, and you don't like the idea of someone outshining you when it comes to representation. And hell, twice in my career here that you have stolen my spot in the Patterson Classic.'
'You continue making small insults towards me and Amity here, because you felt threatened by our status, and jealous that Adora, Charlie, Korra and I were the Four Lesbian Horsewomen, while you were left behind.'
Blake angrily turns to Luz. 'I swear, one more word from you Noceda then the ICE might come for you and poor mama.'
Luz immediately enters the ring and confronts Blake, but Erza and Amity hold her back.
'She'll do it too.' Ruby confirms. 'She basically did that to all of the White Fang members back in Mistral. Never been seen again.'
May look disgusted by Blake, 'I swear, Belladonna. You're a sick person.'
'And yet, nobody tends to stop me. Because I'm pretty, smart, nobility, and absolutely perfect in every way. I'm willing to get dirty for what I believe in.'
Noelle comments, 'I've been in more down and dirty activities before, and I never once heard about a good deed you had done.'
'Well, nobody cares about you, Silva.' Blake snarks at her.
Crimvael stood up, 'Regardless, I'm planning on becoming Champion at P'n'P. You can call it Woke, but I'm planning on earning this win and to prove that Wrestling is for Everyone. And PWA is for everyone.'
PERFECTION, Bullet Kingdom, and the Victorian Empire are all laughing at that statement.
'You three asshole groups aren't gonna laugh when I win that Championship at P'n'P.'
Luz adds, 'And you shouldn't be laughing Akebi, because we're gonna jump your ass if those belts aren't on the line.'
Erza walks around the ring. 'I promise to you all that I'm gonna make it to the Fifth Gear, but before then, at Deadman's Hand, how many Challengers that's left to be challenged, I'll take you all on. Because this year, I'm going coast-to-coast with this belt here. And if we're all done here, I have one thing to say, Ms. Okuda.'
Walk up to Manami.
'My friends, Suletta and Tomo, they want to exchange their Diamond Championship shots for the World Tag Team Championship match, so can that be a thing?'
Manami confirms, 'They're not the only ones who wanted to do that, but I'll say that they Can but they have to earn it. Because I want to announce a match, at the Cannonball Dash, both Suletta Mercury & Tomo Aizawa will compete against Hibiki Sakura for a Golden Ticket, but whoever loses, they will lose their Diamond Championship opportunity.'
Karma adds, 'Also, at the Cannonball Dash, Gracefield & Montgomery vs. Ryugiun & Shiba for the Golden Ticket too.'
Erza seems bothered, 'I think you forgot a name there, Ayaka Uehara is Sakura's partner.'
'No. It's what I meant to announce, because only those who got the pinfalls get to compete, anyone else? No, they won't. So it's gonna be a Handicap Match between Sakura vs. Aizawa & Mercury.'
Marin seems to be grinning at the idea.
Erza leaves the ring then makes her way up to the stage. Turning around to hold the belt up high till Junko delivers the Photoshop (bicycle kick) to the back of the head.
The heel groups start ganging up on the faces, starting a massive brawl to each other.
Junko hairs pull Erza up then up on the fireman's carry for the Death Valley of Despair (death valley driver) from off the rampway and through the tables from the sides.
Security are making their way out to roughly escort the faces out of the arena, while the heels are remaining calm and composed.
Everyone is out of the arena, but Marin walks around the ring to whisper in Manami's ear then nods for an agreement.
Erza is being held up till Cecilia belt smash her down. Slowly leaving the arena, the Red-Headed Bombshells came out to help Erza out.
Backstage: DOA
Izuku Midoriya is looking down while Oscar Pine sat down next to him. 'Listen Deku, I can understand how you feel about this whole Ochaco situation from the Festival. But you gotta let it go, since she made her bed.'
Izuku is holding his hair angrily.
'Look. I was mad about this Ruby situation, but I got over it. Because I had you and Akko to help me get over it.'
Izuku looks at him. 'And where is Akko, Ossy? Out of the building, trying to hurt Ochaco without listening to what she has to say. Because ever since the Festival, I thought I'd wake up after one sick joke, and we would be able to be the World Tag Team Champions, then getting married on the next day. Is there something wrong with me that makes women hurt me when I'm at my most vulnerable?'
'Deku, I've been the one that has been picking fights with men that are clearly much larger than me. Because I got a chip on my shoulder, to prove that I'm not gonna be pushed around. But I do that because I know I can rely on you when I'm at my most downed moments. So I'm here to make sure that you'll be alright. Akko and I are here to make you happy. We've been best friends ever since this whole company started.'
Izuku placed his hand on Oscar's shoulder. 'Oscar? What makes you sure that Atsuko will not turn her back on me? Like Marin, like Ochaco. I'm afraid to trust Akko at this point, because it might be a ploy. Something they might be conjuring up together?'
Oscar sees Izuku's eyes then pat him on the back which made him jump out of his chair.
'Sorry, Deku! I didn't mean to scare you, but you need to get out of this slump.' Oscar offers his hand to a grounded Izuku.
'I'm sorry, Oscar.' Izuku rejects it and gets up alone. 'I'm gonna need some time to think about this whole ordeal. I'll see you at the Cannonball Dash.' Izuku grabs his stuff and leaves him behind. 'Don't worry, I got my gear.'
Oscar sat alone in the locker room.
Backstage: Adam Taurus
Adam is on his phone. 'I see then. So you won't be joining us this year?' Holding his nose. 'Yeah, that's perfectly understandable. Bye, Mr. Yasha.' Adam hangs up.
He walks up to Shirou. 'Any word?'
'InuYasha decided to stay home this year.'
'Damn!' Shirou looks frustrated.
'And where's bossman?' Adam looks around.
Hitomi is leaning next to them. 'He's going around town, looking for more talent to join the White Fang.'
'But who? I doubt Legoshi will come.' Adam leans back on his chair, opening a can of beer then tosses two to both Hitomi and Shirou. 'I'm hoping for someone from Juni Taisen though.'
'But who?' Shirou opens up his can then Hitomi.
She added, 'Maybe Kanae Aira? Love myself a drunken tiger fight.'
Adam then interjects, 'Maybe Eiji Kashii?'
Shirou laughs, 'You just want him here because both of you are bulls.'
'Guilty.' Adam laughs with them.
'Misaki Yuki!' Shirou suggested. 'She's not only pretty cute, but she can kill peacefully. Or maybe Ryoka Niwa? She could use some confidence, and can aid Hitomi here?'
Hitomi disagrees, 'Nah. I want someone who has some more bite on our side.'
Door knocks.
'Come in!' Adam calls out. 'Maybe it's Riley with more of these?'
Winter Schnee enters the room. 'May I request your time alone, Mr. Taurus?'
Adam is baffled while both Shirou and Hitomi then leave the room.
'Is there a problem, Ms. Schnee?' Adam picks up a can and offers her one.
'No thank you. I don't drink at all.'
'Is you don't drink, then how the hell are you even alive after 3 days?' Adam chuckles.
'True, but I'm here to ask you to join me for a casual dinner.'
'Dinner?' Adam is confused. 'Sorry to say, but I doubt wherever I'll take can match your standards.'
'I know, but I wanted to take a quick vacation from my high standard lifestyle. So I would like to know more about you, and your kind.'
'Describe "my kind" so we don't go through this misunderstanding.'
'Gladly. By "your kind", I mean those who are in the lesser class. I'll admit, I'm currently not used to doing daily grinds, or even doing normal housework. So I should ask for someone who can aid me.'
'And dinner came first?'
'It was the only logical conclusion I can come up with.'
Adam pondered about it. 'You do realize that I used to be employed by your father, right?'
'Of course I do. You can also consider this as reparations on my father's behalf. I may even allow you to court me.'
Adam immediately stops her for a bit, 'Woah, woah, woah! Let's not go that far, I'm currently going through therapy at the Hazbin Hotel up in New York. Charlie is being very helpful towards my progress.'
'Therapy?'
'You don't really know? I've been labelled as an abuser. But I'll be honest, I'm actually against this at first. Why would someone like me deserve to be redeemed? It wasn't till I met Charlie years ago and passed me this brochure for the Hazbin Hotel. But if it wasn't for the support of Shirou and Louis, they went up to join me with their own problems.'
'I see.' Winter grabs the brochure. 'Do you think I can send my parents there?'
'Charlie will be grateful for more patrons. They'll have to get used to Angie and Alastor due to their antics, especially Alastor's wake up calls. But the bartending is excellent. But Willow is gonna be in paradise with the musical acts.'
Winter chuckles while Adam is confused, 'My mother is a horrible singer, and my grandfather, never let him sing again.'
'I thought you Schnees are songbirds?'
'Believe it or not, my father bedazzled my mother because he's the songbird. He rarely sings, but he can sing a whole damn musical.' Winter grabs a can to open it up then drinks it down. 'So will you accompany me for dinner?'
'Sure. I'll be honest, it was Vaggie idea for me to start dating again. But I am afraid though.'
'Why are you afraid though?'
'Relapse. Because once you have been labelled as an abuser, you'll get judgemental looks and people will start poking the bear since we're both children of a racial war.'
'I'll be honest, I do share some of my father's traits. I may not show but,' Winter leans down to show Adam her hair that she dyed it white as there's black roots. 'He's not the only one who does hair dye in the family.'
'So keep the facade?'
'Because I hate who I see in the mirror every morning.'
'Let see there's a good steakhouse in Hartford then.' Adam offers his hand, which Winter accepted. Adam kissed the hand before taking his leave.
Backstage: Bow
Adora looks dirty in casual wear while Catra is comforting her, then Kouichi Mizuki & Ritsuka Aoyagi are also comforting Adora.
Bow walks away then looks around as he sees the security guard is harassing ASTA. He walks up to him while Nagito Komaeda goes up to Adora in the background.
'Hey, you can let him go through.' Bow presents his pass to let ASTA walk by safely.
'Thanks Bow.' ASTA is about to walk by, but Bow holds his arm. 'Is there anything you need, Bow?'
'Actually yes.' Bow and ASTA sat down. 'I wanted to ask you for a while now, Mr. Staria.'
'Please, don't call me that since it's a non-canon name since it's a placeholder surname from the one shot manga. I prefer to be called Asta.'
'Sorry, Asta.'
'But what do you want to talk about?'
'This is more of a confession, and I…'
'I gotta stop you there. I'm not a preacher of the church, so I'm not qualify as one. Plus it would be a sin against Thy lord to be as one, without going through proper channels.'
Bow looks distraught by it. 'Ah, I see then. Alright then, guess I'll figure this one out. I figure that you would be able to help out, since you grew up in a church, and would know what to do in this situation.'
ASTA stops Bow from leaving. 'But it doesn't mean I can't give out advice. So speak, Bow.'
'It's this feeling of guilt I've been going through, even through the holidays, I haven't been able to put this in peace.'
'And what is this guilt you're feeling?'
'It's that, when I watched that infamous promo of Cody Rhodes back in AEW, where he had cured racism. And when I saw that moment, I just laughed and rolled my eyes on it. But when I saw Adora, seeing the stars from her eyes, inspired by his words and asked me what I thought about it. I wanted to tell her the truth behind it all but when I saw her being happy and all, I just humor her by saying that Cody spoke on my behalf. So these past five years, I ended up believing what she had been preaching till the Festival. Am I guilty by humoring her for this long, since now she had been viewed as this cult leader.'
'Personally, Mr. Marcus. I think you have the qualities of a good friend, and even stuck by her even though now she has been viewed as a cult leader, willingly to suffer the publicity hate for it. I would say that it is a sin by taking a word and trying to give it a word of God. There's nothing wrong with following a leader, but there is something wrong when you take something that is born out of tone deafness and/or hate because you despise them. Mr. Marcus, you should help her by guiding her way out of this blurry tunnel vision of a false prophet. Instead of focusing on what made him infamous, you should focus on the good he had provided to you. Like, how many modern day wrestlers who were inspired by the good of Eddie Guerrero instead of his misdeeds and demons. Don't give those demons power over their positive impact.'
Bow nodded, then stood up. 'Thank you, Mr. Staria. I wanted to hear that.'
'I'm only doing what Thy Lord would have done. Guide the misguided and find the light.'
Bow then happily ran off, but from a corner behind Bow, Nagito was listening.
The following men are forced to come out to the arena; Adrian Agreste the King Champion, Bow, Junichiro Kubota, Kazuto Kirigaya, Owen, Reiner Braun, Luck Voltia & Magna Swing, Miguel & Tulio, and Victor Nikiforov & Yuri Katsuki.
The Men's World Championships
In a private area, Global Economy; Byakuya Togami the World Champion, Gino Weinberg & Lux Bonteri the World Tag Team Champions, Andrew Hanbridge, Whitley Gele, & Akemi Soryuin. They're all having lavish meals with Byakuya at the end with two empty chairs with the Schnees name on it.
Byakuya starts talking.
'This is a great year for us. Those who deserve to be on top of the wrestling world. I would say that for once, the good guys actually won this year. But who the hell are we kidding, we were never the good guys. Why is it that whenever there's a rich and successful billionaire has to face such prejudice? Ostracized by society, why? Because we're rich? We're famous? We hold more power upon you? The quick answer to that is "yes".'
Everyone starts laughing.
'You see here, when it comes to absolute power when it comes to the almighty dollar bill. Mr. Karma Akabane there, who's already doing a great job on controlling the PWA roster with his lovely assistant, Manami Okuda. He's like every other great politician, willingly accepting money from the power, but unlike them all? I just placed a big sack of money on top of his desk. He accepted it without even wanting to keep it privately, unlike the others which want to "look good" in the eyes of the people. And I know that we have to defend our World Championships on mandatory dates. But Erza Scarlet, you should be thanking us for that since we found out about that little loophole. But no, you had to be that Mary Sue of a World Champion, wanting to appease the fans like one of your little fanservice episodes which is all of them.'
Adrian grabs his microphone then starts talking, 'Get to the point, Togami? If you're not here to make any kind of announcements, or tell us who you'll be facing in the upcoming mandatory events, then I'm headed home.'
Byakuya scoffs as security prevents Adrian from leaving.
'There's no need to rush things out, Agreste. We're here to have time, but I wanted to assert my dominance over the entire PWA locker room. I'm here to show you all on how long I had waited to get this belt, pardon me, waiter!'
Armin Arlelt, annoyed to be waiting for the Global Economy group.
'Thank you, Arlelt.'
Reiner grabs his microphone, 'Is this some kind of a sick joke you have?'
Byakuya chuckles. 'Braun, everything that your creator does is a sick joke. All I'm doing is treating Arlelt here the proper way to treat a political peaceful dictator that all he ever does was making my life a living hell these past 2 years. But if you don't like it, Braun? You can do what an overreacted American citizen does when Trump wins, and shoot yourself because you don't want to live in this America.'
Everyone is rolling their eyes but Kazuto is just snickering over it.
'Yes. But now as we're all seeing you all, I'm seeing a bunch of degenerated international inbreds. So I'm here to announce who'll be facing us at Cannonball Dash.'
Yuri spoke up. 'I have a question for you all.'
'Speak then.'
'How about you come down here, and we can all go face-to-face with you rich assholes.'
The Global Economy starts laughing.
'That's cute, Katsuki. But sadly, you ain't the ones who get to call the shots around here. We don't want to breathe the same air with you all today, but surely enough, we will but we're hoping to beat you all down to continue our reign of enrichment. But don't worry to all tag teams, you will get your shots since I'm counting 3 tag teams there, including the Golden Ticket Match winners, alongside with the absences Hibino & Itadori. Granted, one team will be left out…'
Yuri spoke up again, 'Actually, you guys can make it to the P'n'P event since like Lumity, Marigold, Crimvael, we want to win Championships on an event for LGBTQ+ representation, so we're gonna win those on that night. So how about come to St. Louis for that event?'
Lux then took over, 'Why? So you can go out there and say "yas queens", but you know what? Maybe we will, since LGBTQ+ communities make a lot of money, especially to those who make charities over them. And we would compete, but we have an idea for it, if we in this little subgroup here with Whits here, called "Wall Street" will compete in a 3-on-2 handicap match for these.'
Both Yuri and Victor are talking it over.
'Actually, you know what? Forget, if you had to talk it over.'
Bow then spoke up, 'Actually, I'm hoping to challenge for that World Championship at that same event.'
Byakuya grins. 'Cute, but it ain't gonna happen unless we can make a profit out of it, then yes. Other than that, no. But you can go and talk to Pope Adora about it, and perhaps we can score ourselves a little deal…'
'Actually, right there, I'm gonna stop you for a bit. Adora is losing it. Lost actually. Ever since the Festival, she seems to have lost focus and vision. Metaphorically lost her vision. Don't want to be an ableist.'
'Sorry to hear that.'
Kazuto walks up. 'Actually, can I leave? Since I got an expensive meal to have with my family?'
'Sure thing, and since you're about to leave, I got an announcement for you that since we're somewhat friends, I'll give you your World title shot at Deadman's Hand.'
'Really?' Kazuto is questioning about it. 'At literally at your last title defense?'
'Yeah. Because this is a rigged game, and I'm planning on keeping this World Championship till the Festival. So yes, you will have to wait till then.'
Kazuto then leans back and then shrugs it off. 'You know what, sure. I can wait that long. As long as we can agree to this transactional title defense, then I'll take my leave.'
'See you at Deadman's Hand.' Byakuya grins.
Kazuto leaves the arena while everyone is being frustrated.
'As for my other title defenses, we have to make our first title defenses at the Cannonball Dash. It's gonna be Owen & those two con artists there.'
Miguel and Tulio smirks, while Owen is taking the lead.
'And we shall accept your challenges, since you possibly want to face the King of PWA! King Owen!'
'That is disgusting to see and hear, my God, I feel like I can even smell you and taste you for some unknown reason. But the reason why I want to face you, so I can beat you till you have a heart attack.'
Owen then wanted Byakuya to come in.
'Owen, I'm gonna show you why main characters in anime are always meant to be people that look like me.'
'Miguel? Tulio? You'll find out why the true gold in American right now, are these. Hell, we can buy a hundred of Chels, and they can look much better than yours.'
Both Miguel and Tulio felt offended then started inviting them for a fight.
'You two ain't gonna fight us. Not till the Cannonball Dash. And if you're expecting us to be fair here? Then you guessed wrong, because the rich are now in control, because you two are gonna face the entire trio of Wall Street.'
Both Miguel and Tulio are talking to each other.
'And yes, it's gonna be like that in order to keep our World Tag Team Championships. I know it may be called an authoritarian dictatorship, and we damn sure as well we're gonna abuse the system.'
Byakuya spoke up. 'That's right, Because this year, PWA will be under authoritarian dictatorship, like our good friends here in America, "Operation: 2025" will be in full effect, starting now.'
Byakuya then send a text with an emergency broadcast system;
"This is not a test.
This is your emergency broadcast system announcing the commencement of Operation 2025 paid by Global Economy and sanctioned by Karma Akabane the Head General Manager of Pro Wrestling of Animation.
All talent that aren't on the sides of the Global Economy will not be granted any equal rights or fair treatment.
For the upcoming months, everything will be under lockdown and anything has happened to you all will be your own fault, and your own insurances and conditions will now be under "Independent Contractor" condition.
Blessed the Global Economy, and the Pro Wrestling of Animation Inc., a company reborn.
May God be with you."
Byakuya static back, 'No. We will Not be with you all.' He raised his glass up before the titantron turned back to normal.
Besides Bow who has been escorted safely out of the arena, while security are circling around the ring, wielding their batons while all of the World Championship challengers.
Everyone is preparing for a fight.
[ECW: This Is Extreme]
The Shonen Death Machine; DENJI the Franchise Champion, Kafka Hibino, Yuji Itadori, Chihiro Rokuhiro, & Ken Takakura.
They entered the arena with wrestling weapons.
Huey Freeman (who passed Bow and confront him about this but he was forced to leave), Don Gracefield & Ogun Montgomery, ASTA, Shinra Kusakabe, Hunter Wittebane, Adam Taurus & Shirou Ogami, Crimvael, Danny Fenton, Naofumi Iwatani, Oscar Pine, Gundham Tanaka, Jaune Arc, and Joey Wheeler, had join up.
Chaos starts a brawl with the security then police officers come from Karma's orders to bring order upon the faces, DENJI runs up to Karma and knocks him out with the cane shot.
