2020.07.25: PWN - LONE - LONE 37
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!
