2020.06.27: PWN - LONE - LONE 36
Contents
Intro
“Fame” by David Bowie hits the arena as the newest chapter of LONE kicks off from sunny California as Jack E. Bux slowly emerges from the curtain to a packed house. Bux takes a moment to soak it all in as she looked out to the crowd and nodded as they let their voices be heard.
Baxter: Ladies and gentlemen please welcome at this time, the owner of LONE... Jack E. Bux!
Bux slaps a bunch of fans hands as he makes his way to the ring and takes his time to walk around the ring to interact with as many fans as he could. He even stopped to take a few selfies with fans before he walked up the ringsteps and stepped into the ring as Baxter handed off a microphone and let the Boss have the ring to himself.
Bux: California! How are we tonight?!
He holds the mic out to the crowd to catch their reaction.
Bux: Four years ago in a little state called Maine I came up with a project for a new women's wrestling promotion based in New England. It was my second attempt to take a step into the wrestling world as a promoter as I once had a DC project that never fully quite got off the ground. I had some good friends around me that helped me scout both emerging talent and hidden gems that had yet to really have the full power of a wrestling machine behind them to really showcase their talent. People like my good friend Kevin North who handles play by play, people like Steven O'Reilly, a man who's competed around the world in martial arts tournaments while wrestling in Japan and has took his experience to the front office to act as a liaison to talent. To people like Linda Edwards who in my honest opinion is one of the best interviewers in the game today and to people who came on later like LONE Executive Vice President and 3-time World Heavyweight Champion Frank Washington who can put on any hat you give him, inside the ring or out and he does nothing but excel at it! From the very beginning LONE has been a group effort from the top down that was only made possible by everyone coming together. So to everyone that is with us now, anyone who has ever worked with LONE in the past, to all the fans be it new or those that have been with us from the very beginning I would like to say THANK YOU! You have made all of this possible and it is because of each and every one of you that we will continue to go strong for many years to come!
Bux pauses for a moment as the fans cheer. He holds up the microphone in the air to try to amplify their voices as he holds it outstretch and takes a lap in the ring before resuming.
Bux: But when my friend and business partner in the Prospect Wrestling Network, Isaac Cornelius The Third,... blindsided me with the announcement that the last LONE show would be the final one to take place in the New England area... that put me in a dilemma. LONE – Ladies of New England; how could we be the Ladies of New England if we were no longer based in New England? Don't get me wrong, I'm grateful that Isaac is giving us an even bigger platform than before to continue to grow as a company but I wasn't really prepared to leave New England behind quite yet and relocate across the country. At the same time though; I couldn't deny some of the things he said. We brought a lot to Maine, a lot of jobs and a lot of economic activity and revenue and yet the local government either never wanted to work with us or made our job harder. At the end of the day I have to think of the men and women of LONE, from everyone at the top down to the bottom. The city of Prospect and the surrounding community has been nothing but supportive of us moving into town and while I will always love our fans from New England... in the end it had to be done. We need to grow and the Golden State is the place to do it.
So now the elephant in the room, how do we change our name and to what? Do we just retain the acronym but have the letters stand for nothing other than a legacy of the past? Do we do a radical 180 and adopt an entirely new brand name? Or do we nod to the past while looking towards the future? After thinking about this long and hard it was an easy decision to come to. We will still be LONE but no longer will we be the Ladies of New England or married to one specific region; from now on LONE will stand for Ladies of a New Era! We will respect the past, we will remember everything that got us to this point but from this day onward? We're moving forward! We're moving forward with the Queen of the Castle semi-final and final tonight, where one of three women will win a crown that they can exchange at any point within the next 12 months for a LONE Championship match as Rook and Violent Violet fight for the right to face Cinnamon in the finals! In tonight's main event we will have a LONE Original, the first ever and current reigning and defending 3-time LONE Champion Terri Thompson take on one of Prospect Wrestling Network's fastest rising stars, the 2020 Prospect Classic Cup winner Emily Emmett representing our sister promotion in Japan; SAKURA PRO! Who will walk away as the LONE Champion tonight, and could we see the title change hands twice in the same night?
We are LONE, welcome to LONE Supremacy! I hope you all enjoy tonight's show!
The feed at home cuts to the commentary team seated by the stage.
Kevin North: HELLO EVERYONE and WELCOME to SUPREMACY: LONE 36 - Queen of the Castle night 3! I'm Kevin North alongside my broadcast partner, Frank Washington!
Frank salutes the camera.
Kevin North: Normally, I would be joined by Dexter Irving Cornelius, aka DIC, but he is STILL sitting out due to protest of "Gutter Trash" Terri Thompson's championship reign, which is a shame as this is our first show in his home state of California!
Frank Washington: A shame indeed, but I certainly don't mind filling in! This atmosphere... Man... There's nothing like it!
Kevin North: We know you've all been waiting for a long time, so we're going to get straight to the action! Rook battles one half of the tag team Spice & Ice, in Violent Violet. If she wins, she goes to the finals to battle the other half, Cinnamon. If Violent Violet wins, we are GUARANTEED that the tag team of Spice & Ice will receive the crown. Once you receive the crown, you have 1 year to do something called "relinquish the crown" where you can fight for the LONE Championship whenever you relinquish the crown! Let's take us down to ringside right now!
Rook vs. Violent Violet
Kernkraft 400's "Zombie Nation (Original Version)" starts up. Rook steps out from behind the curtain, standing on stage and lowering her glasses some as she looks out over the crowd. She takes a few steps before taking her glasses off and tossing them out towards whichever lucky fan will catch them, before retrieving another pair and sliding them on.
As Rook starts to slap hands with some fans down the aisle, Violent Violet comes running out from the back, grabs Rook from behind and chucks her into the barricade!
North: Violent Violet is wasting no time getting this semi-final match to a hot start! Or at least that would be the case if she weren't jumping her from behind before the bell!
Washington: I mean when you saw Rook beat The Glorious One last month in that famous upset you know Violet is trying to get every single advantage she can!
Violet keeps violently stopping away at Rook on the ground as they're outside the ring. Violet goes down to yank Rook up by her hair but Rook takes this opportunity to wrap her arms around her and ram her into the ring post, forcing her to let go! Rook wastes no time trying to take advantage of the situation she was thrust in as she grabs Violet by the arm and begins to slam it repeatedly into the ring post before yanking back roughly like she was pulling the cord on a lawnmower to start it up, sending her body colliding violently against the steel!
North: Speaking of that Frank, you're absolutely right. The Glorious One isn't an easy obstacle to overcome, she was LONE Champion for quite a while for a very good reason. Even now she's quickly adapting to the situation at hand, she's grown so much already in her career!
Washington: Absolutely! She's matching Violet's aggression with her own, she's not allowing Violet to dictate the pace! I've trained a world champion or two back in my day and some people just have IT. Rook, mark my words, has IT! This could be her night!
The referee urges both women to get into the ring but neither seem to be willing to listen at the moment as Rook fishes out a kendo stick from under the ring!
North: Normally this would be illegal as hell during a match but this is all before the bell. It's technically as legal as a headlock because the rules, for better or worse don't apply before the bell.
Washington: It may be against the spirit of the rules but turnabout is fair play! Violet started this by ambushing Rook during her entrance, why shouldn't she take advantage of the environment she was thrust in? They're fighting for a chance to be Queen of the Castle!
Rook swings the kendo stick wildly and just barely misses Violet's neck as it clangs against the steel. Violet looks spooked for a brief second before flashing a sick and twisted grin as she's quick to wrap her arms around Rook as she gets ready to swing a second time, giving her zero range to do so! With Violet clinging onto Rook she begins to headbutt her repeatedly and Rook has no choice but to endure the onslaught! Rook begins to quickly look dazed by the onslaught but she manages to run and slam their bodies into the fan barricade, making Violet lose her grip just enough for Rook to fall from her grasp. Violet tries to regain her footing but Rook cuts her down, grabbing ahold of her leg and begins to lock her into her deadly heelhook!
North: still this match has yet to officially begin but that's not stopping Rook for going after that devastating heel hook!
Washington: That's the same move that defeated The Glorious One! Even if it won't directly effect the outcome of the match on the outside before the bell, she's going to be carrying that with her whenever the bell finally rings. This isn't the first time things have devolved into total chaos and anarchy either before a match with Violent Violet!
North: I remember, didn't this happen when Spice and Ice faced The Gucci Gals last year?
Washington: You're absolutely correct! You know somewhere in his office in San Francisco IC3 has got to be watching this with a smile!
North: He better not be smiling too wide now, there were quite a few incidents like this before at the Golden Gate Arena that spiraled a little too out of control!
Violet screams in pain as she's trapped in the hold as she begins to reach out for something, anything that would lead her to salvation while Rook grabs a hold of a bar on the barricade to try to impede Violet's path forward! Violet grits her teeth as she realizes Rook is fighting her fire with fire of her own and screams in pain as she struggles to escape the same hold that defeated a legend like The Glorious One last month.
North: As much as I'm sure our fans are enjoying this wild start you have to wonder what might happen if this match never officially begins. Would that mean Cinnamon is once again left without an opponent and becomes Queen of the Castle by default?
Washington: With having wrestled only a single match the entire tournament? Not only would that be a record that would never be broken but that might be the plan all along. I mean think, Cinnamon has a bye straight to the finals because neither Ashley Lopez or Hannah Kix won; the match resolved without a winner. You got to win to advance in Queen of the Castle, anything short means both women in question are eliminated. It is literally win or go home. We know Spice and Ice have a long standing partnership; maybe there's something sinister in play here.
North: Violet loves violence and Cinnamon is very shrewd; you might be onto something here.
Violet desperately reaches outward and her fingertips finally touch the handle of the kendo stick! She manages to roll it into her grasp and she begins to swing and bat at Rook repeatedly until she's forced to let go! Violet puts some separation between the two of them as she uses the kendo stick as a cane to prop herself up, walking with a noticeable limp. She takes the time to slam the kendo stick into Rook's body several times before yank her up by the hair and rolling her into the ring, just barely before sliding in herself.
DING DING
North: NOW this is official!
Washington: And Violet was the last one to take advantage of the rules free environment. She's definitely hurting, and either woman is going to be in bad shape for the finals. No way around that. But as far as this match is concerned, Violent Violet is currently in the drivers seat!
North: And the winner won't have any time to recover either, they're face Cinnamon immediately following this match!
Violet immediately with her boot kicks Rook back out of the ring to the outside with the aid of the ropes! Violet immediately drops the kendo stick now as she holds up her hands defensively and holds onto the top rope for leverage instructing the referee to start counting!
The referee grits his teeth knowing it's the proper procedure but knows that he's being instructed to after all the illegality before the bell. Nonetheless he really has no choice but to begin the count anyway.
1!
2!
3!
4!
Rook could've been further along towards being counted out if Violet didn't accidentally buy her a few more seconds of time arguing with the referee. Rook however appears to be far from out of this as she begins to pick herself back up.
5!
6!
Rook gets to a knee.
7!
Rook is up!
8!
Rook slides back into the ring only to be immediately met by a vicious barrage of stomping by Violet! The referee immediately calls for a clean break as Violet uses the ropes as leverage to keep stomping.
1!
2!
3!
4!
The referee inserts himself in between Rook and Violet and Violet is angry! Violet shoves the referee who immediately threatens to disqualify her. Violet gets in the referee's face and dares him to do it, poking her finger sharply into his chest! The referee appears to be ready to do exactly that but Rook pulls herself up and hits Violet with a precision chop block right to the leg she worked on earlier on the outside! The referee jumps back as Rook locks in the heel hook once more and shifts gears to checking if Violet wants to tap out!
North: Rook with the heel hook for the second time!
Washington: And this time it counts! If Violet can't get to the ropes in a hurry Rook is going straight to the finals!
Violet's eyes nearly bulge out of her head as she scrambles and scratches and claws for the ropes! Violet appears close to tapping out having been trapped for a second time but at the last possible second she manages to grab ahold of the bottom rope! The referee immediately calls for a clean break!
1!
2!
3!
Rook lets go at the count of three as the referee taps her on the shoulder to bring that fact to her awareness and she complies. Violet is holding her leg on the ground as Rook pulls her towards the center of the ring and tries to lock her in it again!
North: She's going for it again! Rook is relentless!
Violet pushes her away with her free leg and turns over on her stomach as she appears to reach into her tights. Rook quickly regains her footing and tries to pick Violet up off the at only for Violet to ram her fist into her stomach, dropping her instantly! The light catches something metallic on her hand as it flashes at just the right angle.
North: Wait a second... is that what I think it is?
Washington: Looks like a pair of brass knuckles!
North: Violent Violet knows she's beat, she knows Rook has her but she's going to sour the victory!
The referee catches this as well and before Violet could hide it catches her red handed with the foreign object! The referee immediately calls for the bell and disqualifies her!
DING DING DING DING DING DING
At this point, Violent Violet decides to drop the act and just dogpiles on top of Rook, nailing her repeatedly with the brass knuckles over her torso, shoulders and a hit or two to the face for good measure! The referee pries Violet off or Rook forcefully and yells at her to stand back as he goes to check on Rook who is suddenly in pretty bad shape.'
Baxter: Here is your winner as a result of a disqualification... Rook!
North: Rook was well en route to victory but now Violet won't stop!
Previous Match Winner vs Cinnamon
Violet considers going back in to pile in but she decides to hold back as she hears Cinnamon Girl by Neil Young begin to play; as Cinnamon is already taking a victory lap to the ring!
Washington: I knew it! This was the plan all along! There's no other rhyme or reason for this! From the ambush on the ramp, to the brass knuckles, all Violet intended to do the entire time was make sure Rook was left in as bad of shape as possible!
Violet Violent slithers out of the ring to meet Cinnamon on the outside. Despite a limp in her step Violet manages to exchange a high five with Cinnamon as she slides into the ring. The referee by this point helps Rook to her corner and she looks like she's in no condition to wrestle another match and asks her repeatedly if she's sure she can go. Each time Rook insists that she's good enough to go, not wanting to forfeit the finals, no matter how beat up she may be.
DING DING
Cinnamon immediately sprints towards Rook as she pulls herself up with the aid of the ropes and rushes for the Siren's Kiss, planting a kiss on her forehead before DDTing her! Cinnamon immediately goes to the pin 1......2.....THRE-KICKOUT! Cinnamon is in disbelief as Rook somehow kicked out!
North: I give Rook a lot of credit, she's not going down without a fight!
Washington: Heart can only take you so far before your body quits, though. Rook is in the middle of the 11th hour right now and there's only a few grains of sand left in that hour glass before she's out of time!
Cinnamon and Violet have a brief exchange through the ropes as Cinnamon yanks Rook up and tries to hit the Siren's Kiss for a second time but Rook manages to fight out out of, slipping free and ducking behind her and fighting for all she's worth! Rook's tenacity takes Cinnamon by surprise as she's backed up to the ropes and she instinctively ducks her head under the top rope knowing that'll force a clean break! The referee calls for it and Rook reluctantly backs off as it's clear that she's trying to beat Cinnamon as fast as possible knowing she can't last long in her current state after being hit with a barrage of brass knuckle shots. As Cinnamon slowly emerges Rook backs off and tries to goad her towards the center of the ring as Violet hops up on the apron. Rook immediately tries to knock her off as Cinnamon quickly pounces on Rook as Violet hops off out of harms way as Cinnamon sneaks in a swift and dirty kick to Rook's ribs! Rook nearly collapses to the ground from the pain but manages to keep herself standing as Cinnamon tries to follow up with the Sugar & Spice standing spinning heel kick. Rook manages to duck however and immediately takes her down to the mat, locking in the heel hook!
North: Heel hook! Heel hook! I don't believe it! She's got Cinnamon locked in the center of the ring in the heel hook!
Washington: She's got to be running on pure willpower at this point! This is Rook's best shot to overcome the odds one final time in this tournament! Immortality is within your grasp, kid!
Cinnamon is in a full blown panic now as she's too far away from the ropes! The same move that nearly put Alison Crowne away in Rook's debut, the very same move that defeated former LONE Champion Glorious One was now locked on tight to Cinnamon and it looks like she'll have no choice but to tap out! Cinnamon begins to tap out furiously on the mat..... but the referee doesn't see it as Violet yanks the referee out of the ring before he can catch it! Before the referee can threaten to eject her Violet immediately headbutts the referee and knocks him out clean!
North: Right now Rook should be celebrating her coronation as the Queen of the Castle. She managed to make Cinnamon tap out against all odds, she beat her in the dead center of the ring but Violent Violet made sure the referee never saw it!
Washington: Things don't look good for Rook. Referee or not I'm not sure she could do that again! It took everything she had to stay on her feet long enough to find that one small window of opportunity!
Rook realizes the bell isn't ringing and releases the hold as she see's Violet standing on the outside with a grin! She walks over towards the ropes as Violet tries to goad and taunt her to the outside.
North: Now Violet is looking to get involved again!
Rook almost takes the bait but something tells her to look behind her, and as she does Cinnamon is up and on one good leg nails her hard with Sugar & Spice! Cinnamon clutches her leg upon impact as she falls to the mat herself but she manages to throw herself on top of Rook just in time for the replacement referee to sprint out from the back and slide into the ring! The new referee sees this and begins to count 1........2.........3!
Baxter: Here is your winner, and the 2020 Queen of the Castle... Cinnamon!
North: Rook fought her heart out this entire tournament. She deserved to win here tonight, she did everything she had to and then some to give herself the best chance possible. I know we're supposed to be impartial here but the tape speaks for itself, Frank.
Washington: Maybe so, but the tape doesn't always tell us what we want to see or hear! Rook put out a world class effort here tonight but in the end the only thing that matters is what the referee sees. Rook could've kept that heel hook locked in for eternity, she could've kept it locked in until Cinnamon's leg snapped clean off; if the referee never sees her tap out it doesn't matter. Love it or hate it, tonight Cinnamon was the superior strategic mind and she is the inaugural Queen of the Castle, long may she reign.
Violent Violet kneels down before Cinnamon after the referee comes in with the tiara that he places on Cinnamon's head as Cinnamon graciously accepts. Cinnamon spreads her hands and shouts out to the crowd.
Cinnamon: THAT'S RIGHT! BOW! BOW DOWN TO YOUR QUEEN! YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES!
Backstage Segment: "The Highlight of the Night" Alison Crowne w/Gordon Barrows
Cinnamon continues to bask in all of the boos and hateful comments thrown her way. The Arena darkens now, as the titantron above the entrance ramp starts to light up. The camera cuts to the private locker room of the owner of the record breaking longest LONE Championship reign of 456 days, Alison Crowne. Alison was clearly in a sour mood judging by the look on her face as she stood with her arms crossed and in her ring gear and wearing a black shirt saying 'Dick Slender Is My Role Model' with a 16 bit image of the man himself. Some would remember that World Heavyweight Champion Dick Slender was the infamous antagonist of Super Fire Pro Wrestling Special, a game that despite never getting a western release was known for Slender killing the protagonist's tag team partner in the ring during a match and making the protagonist's life a living hell. Flanking her to her immediate right was Gordon Barrows, her trusted attorney, friend, and manager that was part of her entourage in the second half of her championship reign, one that was ended at the hands of Terri Thompson at Lethal Leap Year 4 months ago.
Alison: You know, I figured things would be different, I really did. When I lost the LONE Championship it was understood that I would have an automatic rematch and while Bux did previously breach my contract by having me wrestle injured last year I still stuck to my word; that we'd discuss the terms of my new deal, just between us. No lawyers, no attorneys, just as he wanted. I've held up to my end of the bargain, I've been working on a handshake agreement while we work together to agree on a long term deal and what do I have to show for it since? I've been attacked by a bloodsucking freak and her creepy little minion and every single time I TRY to exercise my guaranteed rematch something else always seems to stop it from happening! I mean what, is Terri paying Sister Catherine in Holy Communion wine? Is Bux even really in charge when he's letting Terri make her own deal with Emily Emmett? I DUNNO?!
It was very clear by the tone of her voice that she was none too pleased in the months since losing the championship.
Alison: And now that Sister Catherine managed to pull one over on me earlier this month in the Prospect Wrestling Classic she's never going to shut up about how this was all 'God's Will' and 'God's Plan' and how I should repent. And while Terri is pretty high on the list of people I want to end, Sister Catherine, you're quickly jumping into the top tier. This is twice you've prevented me from making history now; you denied me the chance to be the first ever Prospect Classic Cup winner and you've prevented me from continuing my record number of days as champion. So you better enjoy this victory while it lasts because now that you've taken something away from me I'm going to have to take something from you and I promise you by the time I'm through with you, your God won't be able to save you. That's a promise!
But to address the other garbage soiled elephant in the room I turn to my friend and personal attorney, Gordon Barrows.
Gordon Barrows steps forward as he adjusts the glasses on his face as he presses his index finger upward on the bridge.
Barrows: In regards the LONE Championship situation it is my understanding that nothing can be done about tonight's defense against 2020 Prospect Classic winner Emily Emmett. Naturally this is no fault of Ms. Emmett's as she's taking advantage of the opportunity of a lifetime and by virtue of winning the prestigious Prospect Classic one could argue that would legitimize her status as a de facto number one contender, especially as SAKURA PRO is still in the process of organizing events under the Prospect Wrestling Network banner.
My client's grievance is not with Ms. Emmett but with Mr. Bux. May I remind you that if such behavior were to persist you would once again be in breach of contract for a second time and waiting four months or longer is something that most would consider an unreasonable time frame with the sole intent of trying to maximize your leverage in contract negotiations and a blatant attempt to hinder the professional advance of my client within her career. While I will honor my client's wishes and stay out of the contract talks as a direct matter you do still owe my client, Ms. Crowne a championship rematch independent of all other circumstances. So with this, I am giving you an ultimatum Mr. Bux; grant my client what is rightfully hers and put and end to this charade or at the very least, offer some form of fair compensation for this delay or I will file an injunction that will tie LONE up in so much red tape you won't have the luxury of booking LONE Championship matches for the foreseeable future! The ball is in your court, Mr. Bux. Make the right decision.
Backstage Segment: "Gutter Trash" Terri Thompson
On the titantron is a graphic. It looks like a Surgeon General's Warning that you'd find on a pack of cigarettes.
Surgeon General's Warning: Gutter Trash may cause Lung Puncturing, Heart Punches, Enzuigiris, and may complicate Professional Wrestling. The graphic fades out.
Terri Thompson is standing backstage, wearing a black leather vest with various patches on it, her white t-shirt with the Surgeon General's Warning on it that's available on LONE's Merch site, denim jeans and her shit stompin black boots.
She has the LONE title on her right shoulder and a bright smile on her face.
Terri: Yeah, Bux! Make the right decision so I can make Alison suffer some more for everything she's done! You know, Alison... It's kinda funny... You tell me I don't defend this here beaut...
Terri glances over to the belt around her shoulder, raising her shoulder to hold it up a little. She then relaxes and looks back at the camera.
Terri: So I offer a challenge to "Deadshot" Emily Emmett that if she can beat me in her American debut elsewhere, she gets a title shot and to her credit, she did. Now it's unfair? Awww. I get it. If it's not for you, it's not right. That's too bad, so sad. Tell you what, I hope Bux signs us up again. I hope he makes that decision. I'll plant your mind in the gutter one more time and hopefully you'll start thinking straight because right now, you're Looney Tunes. You think I'm trying to ally with the Damned now? Why would I try to conspire with those vampire weirdos who thump the bible... to try to get back at you? It doesn't make any sense! It's like I've been telling you all this time. You've pissed off more than just me in the back. Do you see now? Anyway, it's time to go do what I do!
Terri pats the face of the belt, then salutes the camera before walking off.
Backstage Segment: The Damned
The arena continues to stay dark, however, it is soon bathed in a blood red light. Upon the titantron, we see a woman in a nun habit with her head bowed, holding a copy of the Holy Bible open in her hands. She's standing on the camera's left. The camera has the same hue as the arena, covered in a blood red light. On the camera's right is a woman with the corner's of her mouth and her face painted as if she's stitched up. It is the LONE Tag Team Champions The Damned: Sister Catherine and Stitches.
Sister Catherine: Then the cities of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem will go and cry to the gods to whom they make offerings, but they cannot save them in the time of their trouble. - Jeremiah 11:12
Sister Catherine shuts the book. She then pulls the hood of her nun habit down, revealing her glasses and her hair done up in a ponytail.
Stitches can be seen playing with two porcelain dolls. One in her right hand is of the likeness of Alison Crowne. The other, in her left, is in the likeness of Sister Catherine. As Sister Catherine begins to speak, Stitches is having the dolls hit each other, with each one providing offence on the other.
Sister Catherine: No one will be able to save you, Alison Crowne. You can run to your lawyers. You can run to your false gods. You can worship the LONE Championship but I urge you to walk in his light and worship the Lord instead. Yes, yes I have bested you at the Prospect Wrestling Classic and while, unfortunately, I did not succeed when I lost to Drew Stevenson... I believe it was in God's plan that I stop you from winning the Classic and stop you I did...
Stitches has the Sister Catherine doll lock Alison in a hold. She has the doll do Sister Catherine's Bloodlust (Impaler DDT) and then pin her as she silently counts to 3.
Sister Catherine: How many times must I tell you. There is no God saving us. We cannot be saved. We are DAMNED! But hope is not lost for you, Alison Crowne...
Stitches looks up.
Stitches: We just want you to play with us! Come play!
Sister Catherine: But it's starting to see that way. Either join us... or we will make you suffer for your transgressions. For we are remorseless.
Stitches: We are Retribution!
Unison: We are The Damned.
Sister Catherine smiles, as her fangs protrude from her upper lip and she spits a blood red substance at the camera. Meanwhile, Stitches drops the Alison Crowne doll and starts to stroke the hair of the Sister Catherine one as the titantron fades out to the sound of Sister Catherine's sinister laughter and the arena lights come back to normal.
"Gutter Trash" Terri Thompson vs. "Deadshot" Emily Emmett
“Feuer Frei!” by Rammstein blares through the arena's PA system “Deadshot” Emily Emmett emerges from the back with her hood partially covering her face as she takes a moment to stand and soak in the atmosphere.
Getadelt wird wer Schmerzen kennt
Vom Feuer das die Haut verbrennt
Ich werf ein Licht
In mein Gesicht
Ein heisser Schrei
Feuer Frei!
Emily Emmett takes aim at the center of the ring as she mimics aiming a bow and slowly pulling back the bowstring, as if catching her opponent within her sights.
BANG! BANG!
BANG! BANG!
Emily lets the imaginary arrow fly as she flashes a sly, confident grin under her hood. She makes her way down the ramp with confidence in her step, a woman on yet another mission to make her mark in the ring, trying to one up her last performance every single time.
Geadelt ist wer Schmerzen kennt
Vom Feuer das in Lust verbrennt
Ein Funkenstoß
In ihren Schoß
She climbs onto the apron and onto the second rope from the outside and takes aim again.
Gefährlich ist wer Schmerzen kennt
Vom Feuer das den Geist verbrennt
BANG!BANG!
Gefährlich das gebrannte Kind
Mit Feuer das vom Leben trennt
She fires two more imaginary arrows high into the sky as pyro sparks rain down around the outside of the ring. She hops over the top rope, planting both feet on the mat as she flips off her hood and unzips her ring jacket and tossing it to the outside as she stands ready to get the match underway.
Overkill's Hello from the Gutter blares from the PA now as Terri darts out from the curtain and onto the stage. She has her hands held out while clutching the LONE championship with her right hand. "Eyyyyyyyy!" She shouts out, throwing one hand up in the air to try and get the crowd hyped up, while her free arm had the LONE championship around her shoulder.
Terri moves to each side of the aisle to slap hands with the fans. When she gets to ringside, she moves over to the side that Wendy is at and puts her back against the steel barricade, holding her hands out as others start to pat her shoulders. She dips her head back and opens her mouth, wanting beer. A fan pours some of his beer into her mouth. She props herself up on the barricade and spits the beer in a fine mist above them all before sliding into the ring, turning her attention to Emily now.
The ref asks for the belt and she hands it to him. He holds it up for everyone to see that this match is for the title!
DING DING
Baxter: The following match is scheduled for one fall and is for the LONE Championship! Introducing first, the challenger, residing in Okinawa, Japan, representing SAKURA PRO, she is the 2020 Prospect Classic Cup winner... “Deadshot” Emily Emmett!
Emily Emmett pulls back on her imaginary bow and fires a shot at the LONE Championship resting on Terri's waist before making a motion around her own. The crowd cheers as she flashes a confident, almost cocky grin.
North: That's what it's all about, ladies and gentlemen. Last month, elsewhere in Atlanta, Terri Thompson made Emily a deal that if she managed to beat her that she would get a LONE Championship match here tonight.
Washington: And I don't even think that was Emily's initial intention either. She's a bit of a firecracker, that's for sure, a bit unpredictable and she says whats on her mind. She's got an intense competitive streak and she went after one of the biggest, baddest dogs in the yard and to her credit, she managed to back up her words too! Terri is a woman of her word though, and while the two seem to be on better terms now than they were initially it could get very heated in the middle of that ring.
North: And how could it not? A month ago Terri Thompson would've been the clear, runaway favorite in this match but now? Emily Emmett is the clear favorite and she seems to have stolen a good portion of this crowd and put them into her corner as well. Tonight, Terri is fighting for survival.
Washington: When you beat the champion in your debut, non-title, when you beat Stonehands AND Drew Stevenson all in the same night, as the wildest of wildcards to win an entire one night tournament? People take notice. I'm not going to count my friend Terri out like some might, when her back is against the wall she can make absolute magic happen in that ring. But I will say, knowing what we know now, what we saw earlier this month? She's got her work cut out for her, no question.
North: And you want to talk about hungry, how about this? Emily Emmett at the age of 19 won the Prospect Classic Cup, a record that will probably never be broken, and she's less than 2 months away from turning 20. If she can manage to capture the LONE Championship tonight, she'll become the youngest champion in LONE history, and that'll be another record that will probably also last for a very long time.
Washington: Big if though, Kevin. It sounds nice on paper but until that final bell rings, nothing is set in stone. This is going to be an absolute showstealer though, regardless of the result.
Baxter: And her opponent, from Portland, Maine, she is the reigning and defending 3-time LONE Champion... “Gutter Trash” Terri Thompson!
The crowd cheers as Terri raises both of her hands in the air and then starts to beat on her chest while screaming out. The referee shows the belt to both women before raising it up high for the crowd to see once more! He then hands it off to Baxter at ringside and calls for the opening bell.
DING DING
Emily shoots out of her corner like a rocket and meets Terri in the center of the ring as she also darts out for a quick start as the two begin exchanging blows, Terri throwing punches, and Emily trying to dodge and block them as she responds with a series of kicks. About an equal amount of strikes lands for each woman as each tries to switch up their offense to catch the other off guard and off balance; Terri throws in a few elbows and kicks as Emily peppers in a few swift jabs before ducking and going for a roundhouse kick. Terri manages to duck the roundhouse and kicks Emily hard in the ribs. Emily takes the kick full force to her ribs but catches Terri's leg close to her ribs, not letting her draw it back inward and with the advantage in leverage pushes and rams her all the way into the turnbuckle!
North: While these two did face off elsewhere last month tonight we get to see the return match in our debut here in California and you can already tell early on that these two are going to hold nothing back!
Washington: Emily just took a nasty kick to the ribs but she was willing to take the hit to push the champion all the way into the corner. Sometimes you have to be willing to endure a little bit of pain to inflict some back!
Emily positions Terri's caught leg and swings it behind the middle rope and starts kicking and stomping at it while throwing in some punches to the head to try to keep Terri even more off balance. The referee calls for a clean break which Emily gives at three before backing off and hitting a running thrust dropkick to Terri in the corner!
North: Well, form what we we do know from our representatives in Japan and the matches she's managed to have so far early in her career is that submissions are very much a part of Emily's arsenal. She's already looking to wear Terri down just a bit to try to possibly exploit later!
Washington: She may be a rookie but right now she's acting with some veteran instincts here. The 4WA is one of the best in the nation, Terri is a product of the 4WA and look at what she's accomplished. But my friend Drew will tell you though, they train you something fierce over in Japan. The teachers and instructors carry a very old school mentality and they make sure you practice and practice some more until you finally get it right, no matter how small. Sojiro Yukimura is a bad man and his students carry a bit of his edge and intensity with them.
Terri manages to free her leg and regain her balance, but she does so with a limp as she steps out of the corner. Emily tries to immediately follow up with springboard dropkick but Terri manages to see it coming and swats her feet down and towards the mat. Emily rolls through the impact of hitting a bunch of nothing and manages to spring back to her feet quickly. Terri sees her moment and connects swiftly with a superkick! Emily crashes to the mat, Terri crashes to the mat as her injured leg gives out on her upon connecting.
North: Terri might have changed the momentum of that match with that superkick but at what price?
Washington: Terri did what she had to do, but when you've had a body part worked over you absolutely try to avoid needing to rely on it immediately after, at least get some adrenaline going first to temporarily ignore the worst of the pain. But Terri is one of the best in the game, Kevin, she's already lost to Emily last month and she knows exactly what she has to do to avoid repeating the same fate!
Terri is first to stir, and she does so no long after as she goes to throw an arm over for the pin. 1..... 2..KICKOUT! Emily wasn't quite finished this soon and Terri had a good feeling, but she had to go for it anyway on the off chance she scored the flash knockout blow. Terri gets up and stomps on the downed challenger repeatedly, trying to get as much in as she could while Emily didn't quite have her barrings straight. Terri picks Emily up and whips her to the ropes and hits her directly in the chest with a staggering knife edge chop!
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
The crowd roars with the iconic WOO in response to the impact as Emily clutches her chest, the impact echoing loudly in the arena. Emily grits her teeth from the pain and goes to push herself up to her feet as Terri is still pressing the advantage relentlessly hammering away on the rookie, using her incredible knowledge and repertoire of brawling and striking as she gets back to her feet and pressing her back into a corner. Terri perhaps presses too hard though, as it seems to light a fire in Emily's eyes as she starts swinging back, and hard! Before the referee can order for a clean break Emily manages to catch Terri with a nasty elbow strike and shoves her back a few feet to give herself room to get from out of the corner. Terri tries to press her back into the corner again but Emily ducks under her barrage and slips behind her, and quickly follows up with a running thrust dropkick sending Terri colliding violently with the turnbuckle! Emily quickly kips up to her feet and nails the champion with a running european uppercut as she tries to emerge from the corner, sending her right back! Emily continues to press the advantage as she goes for the triangle jump enziguri, springboarding off the top rope as Terri staggers out from the corner and twisting her body in midair to connect with the kick dead on to the side of the champion's head! The champion is down!
North: I don't think I've seen anything quite like this but Emily only seems to get more dangerous when her back is against the wall! Terri was nearly stomping on her throat with her foot glued to the pedal and Emily fought out and struck back with a vengeance!
Washington: When you surround an enemy, leave an outlet free. Never press a desperate foe too hard, so says The Art of War. A fleeing enemy is easier to route but when one has their back pressed against the wall and given no other way out may just find a way to make the impossible become a reality. You put someone in a position with nothing else to lose they can inflict disproportionate damage than they otherwise would if given an outlet to flee and even more; if you misjudged the situation you could be creating the conditions of defeat for yourself! Terri misread the situation and Emily made her pay dearly for it!
Emily is amped up as the crowd begins clapping and chanting.
DEAD-SHOT! CLAP CLAP DEAD-SHOT! CLAP CLAP DEAD-SHOT! CLAP CLAP DEAD-SHOT! CLAP CLAP DEAD-SHOT! CLAP CLAP DEAD-SHOT! CLAP CLAP
While the crowd has been mostly evenly divided between the two, right now Emily's supporters were making their voices heard. Terri begins to stir on the ground and instinctively tries to go for the ropes but Emily sees this and quickly pops back up and wraps her arms around her waist and begins to pull her up from the mat, deadlifting her as she lifts her up and slams her back onto the mat with an uproot german suplex! Terri's body crashes violently back to the mat, but Emily holds onto the bridge for a pin!
North: Uproot German Suplex! This might be it!
The referee counts 1.....2...KICKOUT!
North: Emily almost had Terri with that uproot german suplex!
Washington: That was close! I've seen many people get knocked out by a move like that before. Your neck whips back and collides against the mat and if the blow is hard enough you can knock someone unconscious in the blink of an eye! Terri is the champion for a reason though, she knows what's at stake but this is a fascinating chess match these two are telling in the ring!
Emily gets go of Terri as she kicks out with a grin on her face, almost excited by the fact that the champion kicked out. Emily keeps her eyes locked on Terri as she keeps herself light on her feet and follows Terri around from the rear as she tries to pull herself up after taking a volley of offensive firepower from the 2020 Prospect Classic Cup winner. Terri makes it back to her feet no longer than two seconds before Emily pounced back on her again, locking her in a sleeperhold from behind. Terri's eyes begin to light up as she feels herself in the challenger's grasp as she begins to try to shove her hands inbetween her arm to give herself more room to breathe. Emily meanwhile is trying to drag her to the center of the ring and is looking to wear her down some more. Now Terri's supporters begin to make their voices heard, cheering on the champion.
LET'S GO TERRI! LET'S GO TERRI! LET'S GO TERRI! LET'S GO TERRI! LET'S GO TERRI! LET'S GO TERRI! LET'S GO TERRI! LET'S GO TERRI! LET'S GO TERRI! LET'S GO TERRI!
Emily looks like she's about to fall backwards and wrap her legs around Terri's ribs for the submission she calls The Clutch but Terri keeps herself and Emily both on her feet as her forward momentum carries her closer to the ropes. Emily tries to fall back again but Terri kicks her feet off the ropes, sending Emily back quicker than she anticipated. Emily keeps the hold around Terri's neck but Terri manages to bridge her body in a way that has Emily's shoulders firmly on the mat! 1......2.........thr-KICKOUT! Emily is forced to release her own hold to avoid being pinned by the leverage Terri had on her!
North: Emily was going for The Clutch but it very nearly backfired!
Washington: Emily nearly made a fatal miscalculation of her own! Terri had her in check right there and it was nearly checkmate! Emily got greedy with that submission, she should've been more patient with it! She had the high ground and she ceded it away!
The crowd claps and cheers the clean exchange between champion and challenger as they both begin to mentally plot their next moves. Emily thinks she's got the feel of the match, she feels she's close to making history and decides to press on further, looking to wear Terri out further and immediately rolls Terri up in a pin as she gets to her knees. 1...2-KICKOUT! Emily pops up and catches Terri with another pin this time, a backslide pin 1...2..KICKOUT! Emily undeterred continues as she then catches Terri with an inside cradle pin 1...2-KICKOUT! Emily again goes for yet another pin, this time wrapping her legs around Terri's torso on the mat and begins to rotate her body, sending her and Terri tumbling around the ring in multiple cycles before finally pinning her shoulders to the mat 1...2.....TH-KICKOUT!
North: A series of aggressive pinfall attempts by the challenger, each time Terri finds the energy and the strength to kick out!
Washington: Emily knows she's probably not going to beat Terri by going for the pin repeatedly but this is a very cunning tactic. She knows Terri is fatigued right now so she's forcing her to expend more and more energy in such a short amount of time by constantly kicking out. She's trying to wear the champion out but she has to be careful to not gas herself in the process!
North: We'll soon find out who has the better cardio here I get the feeling!
Emily looks at Terri on the mat and places her index finger up to the side of her head before making a hammer with her thumb extended and going down, like a gun firing before she begins to climb to the top rope.
North: Emily's going for the top rope diving DDT she calls BOOM! Headshot!
Washington: This could be it, all or nothing! She's putting everything on the line in this single moment!
Terri gets up to her feet slowly. Emily is measuring her and plotting out her trajectory. Terri begins to slowly turn around; Emily takes flight! Emily looks to connect with BOOM! Headshot! but Terri somehow manages to catch her! Emily shakes her head vigorously as she feels herself get plucked out of the sky as Terri throws her Down The Drain with the blue thunder bomb!
North: DOWN THE DRAIN! Terri just plucked the challenger out of the sky!
Washington: Damn! Terri Thompson finds a way to surprise us once again, pulling out a new trick to keep herself in this match! If Terri could get her arm over Emily she might have this won!
Emily attempts to kip up immediately from the impact, she manages to somehow make it to her feet.... only to immediately lose her balance, her body giving out on her as she falls back down, face first! The referee checks on both women before starting the mandatory 10 count!
1!
2!
3!
4!
Terri is the first to begin stirring as she begins manages to make it up to all fours; hands and knees on the mat propping her body up. Emily is still face first on the mat.
5!
6!
7!
Terri makes it to a knee, Emily still hasn't moved!
8!
Terri is back on her feet!
9!
Emily's body begins to roll towards the outside....
TE-
Right before the referee can finish the count Emily rolls outside of the ring, holding onto the bottom rope to force herself to stand! She successfully broke the count right at the buzzer!
Washington: Too close for comfort there! I think Emily might've actually been knocked out from going Down the Drain but she managed to somehow escape certain defeat for now after her high risk gamble failed!
The referee urges Emily to get back into the ring as Terri looks onto the outside but without any immediate movement he begins his second count; this time for staying outside of the ring!
1!
2!
Emily begins to move but not towards the ring, but instead towards Baxter, the announcer and she asks for a bottle of water from the timekeeper.
3!
She grabs a bottle of water and twists the cap off and begins to drink from it as Terri rolls outside of the ring to break the count.
North: Emily has gone through the ringer here, they both have honestly. I'm not sure this is the right time for a water break in the middle of the match but at the same time? I get it.
Washington: When you don't have the ole smelling salts you to turn to anything you can to get your head back in the game!
Emily sees Terri quickly closes the gap and stops her water break to hit her in the head with the water bottle! Water splashes everywhere as Terri fires back with a punch of her own! The begin to brawl on the outside of the ring near the fans with Terri this time easily winning the exchange as she begins to overpower the young hotshot from SAKURA PRO before grabbing her by the head and launching her right into the ringpost as a loud PING! is heard upon impact!
North: Oh my God! I think the whole arena heard that impact!
Emily tries to hold her face with one hand as she tries to keep herself upright with her other arm around the post but it becomes apparent quickly that she's bleeding from her forehead off the impact. Terri smells the blood in the water and begins hammering away at Emily's face with punch after punch as the referee pleads, almost in vain, for them to take the action back to the ring. Emily's body slowly begins to slump against the apron as she's beaten down repeatedly before Terri rolls her back into the ring before sliding in herself. Terri goes for the pin this time after rolling Emily away from the ropes first 1....2......THRE-KICKOUT! Emily barely shoots her shoulder up!
North: Emily Emmett is in a very bad way here. She barely, just barely got her shoulder up!
Washington: The Champ is back in control here but I wouldn't count her out quite yet! Terri has to finish here, she has to quickly identify the path to victory and do it! Ideally she should keep Emily off her feet here, we saw what happened the last time she pressed with her on her feet!
The crowd is evenly split between the two as this championship match rages on. Terri sees what could be her opportunity to put this one away as she immediately goes to lock Emily in the dragon sleeper! Emily struggles immediately as the hold is locked in as she desperately looks for a way out.
North: Terri Thompson has got her trapped in the dragon sleeper!
Washington: Or as I called it, The Black Halo! I've ended plenty of matches with that very hold in my career! She's got it locked in tight and I can tell she's been watching some of my old matches to pull that one out!
Emily struggles to breathe as she's locked in tight as Terri applies all the pressure she can to try to avenge her earlier loss that led to this match to begin with. The referee asks Emily if she wishes to submit but she shouts “NO!” as she continues to try to find a way out. Emily tries to arch her body back with her legs, trying to make Terri lose her grip but Terri tries to transition into a dragon sleeper with body scissors. Emily manages to block the attempt but ultimately stay trapped within the hold with her arms and legs; she did force Terri to give up more of her leverage in the process though. Both women are up to their feet now as Terri tries to transition away to a different submission hold as she still could very much control and restrict how Emily could move with her arm still wrapped around her neck. Terri ultimately tries to go for the body scissors again but before she could Emily managed to slip out! She catches Terri in Wrist-lock transitioned into a short-arm high knee strike to the head!
North: RTQ! RTQ! Rook Takes Queen! This is the same move she won the Prospect Classic with when she pinned Drew Stevenson in the finals, a friend of yours and an old enemy of Terri's! History is about to repeat itself!
Emily Emmett knows she's only three seconds away from making history and becoming the youngest LONE Champion ever and she immediately tries to go for the pin, but she's disoriented from the blood in her eyes! She can't seem to find Terri who manages to roll out of the ring, safely to the outside by the time Emily tries to throw her arm over her!
Washington: It wasn't meant to be, not just yet! Veteran move by Terri there, rolling safely to the outside while Emily was blinded by her own blood in her eyes! That's what separates the champions from the contenders!
The referee begins his ten count.
1!
2!
3!
4!
Emily manages to clear the blood from her eyes as Terri is barely stirring having just eaten a knee to the face.
5!
6!
North: Emily can certainly win the match here by count out but the title only changes hands on a pinfall or a submission, it'd be a victory without capturing the object of her desire!
Washington: Might as well be no victory at all at that rate! Terri benefits greatly from the championship advantage here, she's as safe as she can be on the outside, she can't actually lose the title there! Emily has to do something quick to get her back in there because Terri might not even know where she is!
7!
Emily rolls out of the ring to break the ten count and wastes no time rolling Terri back in. She slides back in her and immediately goes for the pin. 1....2......KICKOUT!
North: Terri had way too much time to recover there, Emily would be the new LONE Champion for sure if only she could've immediately followed up!
Emily shakes her head knowing that she's going to have to step it up another notch to try to put this match away and she begins to head for the turnbuckle, slowly climbing up it. Around this time Terri also begins to stir and sees Emily go to the top begins to follow her from inside the ring. As Emily reaches the top rope, Terri climbs up after her as the two began to exchange blows on the top turnbuckle, each woman wobbling as they're hit, both looking to potentially with the match right here.
North: This is it right here, the match is on the line right here!
Terri catches Emily right in the jaw and Terri begins to position herself on the top rope, looking to potentially hit her Mind in the Gutter bulldog from the very top. She tries to pull Emily up with her to the top rope to execute the move but Emily hooks her leg inside the rope to keep herself seated! Emily punches Terri several times in the ribs as she wobbles precariously on the top rope as Emily picks herself up now as she stands on the top rope as well! She looks to hit her Northern Lights Driver off the top rope as well, an avalanche version of the move she calls Dead on Arrival but Terri fights and slugs it out for all she's worth to avoid getting caught with it!
Washington: Terri was nearly nailed with the Dead On Arrival but she's not going down without a fight! Neither woman can afford to crash and burn here, it could be their final mistake of the match!
As each woman is jockeying for position to put the other away the crowd erupts into a chorus of booes as Alison Crowne, the former LONE Champion, the very same person Terri defeated to become champion for the third time hops up onto the apron and shoves them both off and into the ring! The referee immediately calls for the bell to throw this match out as a no contest!
North: And dammit, Alison Crowne had to ruin this highly competitive match! She can't stand the thought of anyone else getting a match before her, can she?
Washington: We'll never know which way this match could've ended now. Emily and Terri were both in equal position up on the top to seal this match for good but now it'll be one of those things we'll forever debate about; what could've happened!
Alison immediately goes after Terri Thompson and begins punching her in the face repeatedly on the mat before wrapping her hands around her throat to try to choke the life out of her. Emily Emmett gets up and shoves Alison off of Terri and the two begin to brawl around the ring. Alison whips Emily to the ropes and attempts to hit her with a high Muay Thai kick but Emily sees it coming and ducks. Emily hooks her arms under the top rope to stop her own momentum and Alison uses this as an excuse to dump her over the top to the outside with a clothesline. Terri is back to her feet by this time and begins to go after Alison and hits her with Down the Drain from behind! Alison crashes to the mat but manages to kick Terri's leg out from under her on the follow up and grabs her by the arm before kicking her face repeatedly as they're both prone on the ground. By this time Emily is back to her feet and hops onto the apron and springboards back into the ring, nailing Alison with an elbow drop!
North: Emily still has enough in her as she takes the layup with that springboard elbow after Terri threw Alison Down the Drain!
Washington: Alison may have committed a tactical error here! She thought she had her spot perfectly picked out but I don't think she quite expected Terri and Emily to band together! I think she expected Emily to put herself first!
Alison lets go of Terri as Terri and Emily begin communicating with one another. Terri lifts Alison high into the air with a vertical suplex, keeping her there as Emily climbs to the top rope and hits Alison with a crossbody as Terri slams Alison down simultaneously! By this time LONE security begins piling out from the back to try restore order and Alison begins to quickly roll outside of the ring to try to put some distance between Terri and Emily. Emily sees this and quickly darts out of the ring, moving a bit quicker than Terri anticipated as she watches her opponent-turned-ally re-engage with Alison. Alison sees this and tries to throw a punch and shove Emily away as quickly backpedals as Emily managed to catch Alison right in the eye socket with a nasty right that seems to legitimately upset Alison right before security intervene!
North: Oh my.... oh my God! Emily just decked Alison!
Washington: What's... what?
North: Frank, are you okay?
Security quickly forms a line as between Emily and Terri and Alison in case either decided to try to after her. Alison's eye already is beginning to swell up and turn black and blue as she angrily shouts at Emily.
Alison: WHAT THE FUCK, EMILY?! WHAT THE FUCK?!
Emily sees this and grins wide as she can, seeming to have enjoyed getting under her skin.
Emily: My name is Emily Emmett and you better not forget it, Allie!
This seems to piss Alison off more as she immediately tries to shove security aside.
Alison: Come on, let's fight, you and me, right now! Octagon, in the back, in the street, let's fight! You want me, you want me Emily? You got my attention now you piece of shit! Get the fuck off me; let me go!
She shoves a security member roughly which causes the line standing in front to coalesce around Alison to restrain her and force her to the back. More security begins to pile out from the crowd, hopping over the barricade to make sure Terri and Emily don't pursue Alison. Meanwhile as this is all going on Terri has made her way outside the ring is trying to hold Emily back and talk to her.
North: Frank?
Frank Washington says nothing as only the sound of his headset dropping on the announce table could be heard. Quickly after Frank could be seen making his way over to security, which had Alison restrained as he tried to talk to Alison and the security team and usher them to the back.
North: It appears... Frank decided he needed to take a proactive approach here to help restore order here ladies and gentlemen. This all escalated so fast. Emily and Terri were fighting on the top rope, each one looking to put the other away in this championship match and Alison Crowne got the match thrown out by interfering. Emily and Terri teamed up against Alison to try to fight her off and Emily seems to have caught Alison with a haymaker that might have fractured her orbital socket. Alison is furious and she may be seriously hurt here and... I don't think I've ever seen anything quite like this. It's been well documented that Alison has been trying to end Terri's career but she just may very well have added a new name to that list after tonight.
As things finally calm down Emily and Terri continue to talk outside the ring with one another as Baxter makes the official announcement to try to regain some kind of semblance of order.
Baxter: As a result of outside interference, this match has been ruled a no contest! However as the title cannot change hands without a concrete conclusion... still your LONE Champion... Terri Thompson!
North: I'm Kevin North and for my broadcast partner Frank Washington we once again thank you for inviting us into your homes here tonight. Tune in next month right here on the Prospect Wrestling Network as we're sure to have plenty of fall out after a very explosive debut here in the Golden State. Goodnight everybody!
