The camera panned to the back where Jonah was looking disappointed in himself in the locker room before he heard the door open, where Kilik Rung was revealed and sat next to Jonah with an insincere smile on his face.
"Hey Jonah, saw how you were out there. You did your best, and that's what matters. At least to all these losers in the audience, I mean if it was me, I would've won it without breaking a sweat," Kilik explained as Jonah turned his head to glare at Kilik.
"OK, listen, I promised the BTWF fans that I would make an impact here, and you're a BTWF original, so…," Kilik explained before punching Jonah in the face. Kilik then got up off of the bench he was sitting on and started stomping on Jonah before picking him up and throwing him into the lockers.

"Gray and Lyon are going to have to go back to the drawing board. But I have a feeling that Gray and Lyon are not done with Hitman and Mirio just yet," Bob noted as Hitman and Mirio continued to celebrate in the ring as the camera panned to the back, where Scott Stanford was sitting in a room with a wall of screens behind him.
"Hello ladies and gentlemen, I'm Scott Stanford and welcome to the Stanford Station, where we go over with the matches that took place before this PPV aired," Stanford explained as the camera panned to one of the screens, which showed the Yu-Gi-Bromans (Joey Wheeler, Tristan Taylor, and DJ Yugi) vs. The Best Friends (Fry and Bender) and Yuma.
"The show started with a 6 man tag match between the recently returned Yu-Gi-Bromans and the makeshift team of the Best Friends teaming up with former BTWF Cruiserweight Champion Yuma," Scott narrated as the screen showed the finishing sequence of the match, where Yuma dived on top of both Yu-Gi-Bromans while Fry and Bender hit the Beating of the Future (Powerbomb/Full Nelson Slam Combination) onto DJ Yugi before they pinned him to win the match.
"This match went ten minutes, but Yuma was technically able to pick up his first win in a while, while the Best Friends gained some momentum heading towards their quest for the BTWF Tag Team Championships," Scott explained as the screen turned to a match between Lance Scaper and 'the Guru' TJ Detweiler.
"The next match was some Cruiserweight action between BTWF newcomer Lance Scaper and 'the Guru' TJ Detweiler," Scott explained as the screen panned to the final part of the match, which included TJ pushing Lance to the outside, where the Conglomerate's Onslaught ran down to the ring, and while TJ was distracting the referee, hit Lance with a chokeslam on the padded concrete before throwing him into the ring. TJ then put Lance in the Divine Intervention (Captain's Hook), causing him to tap out after thirty seconds.
"As you can see, after this shocking interference my Onslaught, TJ was able to make Lance submit in the middle of the ring after this eight and a half minute match," Scott said as the screen turned dark and the camera focused back on Scott.

The two shook hands before putting up their dukes and making their way to the ring with the crowd continuing to boo them.
"The following contest is a tag team match scheduled for one fall, and is for the BTWF Tag Team Championships! Introducing the challengers, the team of Miyuki Shirogane and Akira Tsubaki, the Vaudevillians!" Tim Barr announced as the Vaudevillians rolled into the ring with the crowd continuing to boo them as the two posed and flexed in the middle of the ring.
"The Best Friends and the Yu-Gi-Bromans, along with other tag teams, have to be watching this match to see what goes on with the Tag Team Champions and their contenders," Striker explained as Miyuki and Akira moved to the corner of the ring while Akira started doing squat thrusts to train himself.

"And their opponents, from Gravity Falls Oregon, they are the BTWF Tag Team Champions, Robbie and Thompson, the Brotherhood!" Tim Barr announced as the crowd continued to cheer as the champions continued to head to the ring, with Thompson slightly limping to the ring.
"You can see that Thompson hasn't completely recovered from their title match with the Vaudevillians last month. You have to wonder why the champions didn't just postpone this match," Bob wondered aloud as Thompson and Robbie rolled into the ring, took the championships off of around their waists, and lifted them up, causing the crowd to cheer as Akira and Miyuki looked at them, unimpressed.
"You know that's not how the tag champions operate, Bob. Robbie and Thompson will fight until the very end if it means holding on to the championships," Kotoko countered as the bell rang. Miyuki and Thompson started the match off, and the crowd booed as Miyuki immediately went for the damaged right leg of Thompson, but Thompson was able to push him away and throw him into the corner, causing the crowd to go back to cheering. Miyuki tried again to grab the damaged leg, but Thompson picked him up by the hair and hit him with a headbutt to the face, sending him staggering into the corner as the crowd chanted for Thompson.

"And this is Donna Dog, and over there is Henry Hamster!" Minatsuki exclaimed as Hana looked at the dog and hamster puppet with a bored look on her face.
"I don't care. I hate animals," Hana said with a deadpanned expression as Donna's head went down in sadness as Carrie Cat walked into the set, glaring at an uninterested Hana.
"Well, we aren't exactly happy about having you here, you delinquent. But Minatsuki insisted on it," Carrie countered as Hana walked up to the cat puppet. Hana looked at Minatsuki, who was looking back at her with a happy and expectant look on her face. However, that face quickly turned into a worried frown as Hana kicked Carrie away from her and into the wall.
"Minatsuki! That woman hurt Carrie!" Henry yelled as he ran over to Carrie as the canned in crowd of children booed Hana.
"It's OK, we all just got off to a bad start! Let's get Bret Bird and we can have dinner," Minatsuki responded, trying to keep the happiness in her voice.
"Bret went on vacation remember? He's meeting family up north for the weekend," Donna countered as she helped Carrie up to her four legs. Hana rolled her eyes and walked up to Minatsuki.
"Can we get dinner over with already? It's bad enough that I have to spend time with you, but these dumb animal puppets you play with are annoying me a lot more," Hana grumbled before walking over to the kitchen as Minatsuki shot Hana a glare so quick that disappeared off of her face as quickly as it arrived before going over to check on Carrie while also trying to force a smile on her face.
"Everything will be fine…," Minatsuki mumbled to herself as she took a roll of bandages out of her pockets before the camera panned to the stage, where 'This Fire Burns' by Killswitch Engage played, causing the crowd to cheer as Rally ran out of the back and kneeled on the stage before reaching into her pocket and taking out two flare pistols. Rally looked up to the sky, and shot her flare guns into the sky, causing the crowd to explode as the pyro came out of the guns.
"The following contest is a street fight! Approaching the ring, from Chicago Illinois, she is the Second City Shooter, Rally Vincent!" Tim Barr announced as the crowd continued to cheer as Rally put her flare guns down and started running to the ring, while hi-fiving as many fans as she could on her way.
"Rally with that explosive entrance, showing that she is not scared of Madison and is ready for her street fight!"

Bob exclaimed as 'And The Horse He Rode On' by Reluctant Hero played, causing the crowd to boo as Madison came out of the back with Madison in her usual pink and purple cowgirl hat, vest, and cowbell attached to a bullrope.

"Rally may have done a lot of damage to Madison, but she has to make sure that she doesn't lose sight of Madison!"

"Madison sending Rally's face crashing into the announcers' table!" Striker exclaimed as Madison picked Rally back up again and hit her with a Snake Eyes on the steel steps as the crowd booed while Madison positioned Rally in a seated position with her head leaning on the side of the steel steps.

"Madison using those steel steps as a weapon against Rally!" Bob exclaimed as the crowd continued to boo as Madison picked Rally up again by her head and started punching her in the face multiple times before throwing her into the top of the announcers' table.

"What does Madison have planned here!?" Kotoko asked worriedly, as Madison picked up the bullrope and started whipping Rally in the stomach and the back, causing the crowd to boo loudly, with the camera panning to a few members of the audience shielding their eyes from the uncomfortable display.
"Madison's fury and rage at Rally is coming through with every single shot from that bullrope!"

"That may be why!" Striker exclaimed as Juniper picked a bloodied Rally up by the hair and hit her with a Reverse Tombstone Piledriver before walking over to the ringside area and asking the ring attendant for a microphone.
