...
LIVE FROM THE HONDA CENTER IN ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA!!!
Dystopia blasts off like never before with a blue fireworks spectacular! In a cold open The Powers That Be emerges from the curtain with a smug yet deceiving look on his face. He tilts his ear microphone toward his mouth, waiting for the fans inside the Honda Center to cool it before speaking uninterrupted. BUT fans begin booing remembering his actions at Silence lasering someone in half. They begin to chant "WE DON'T NEED YOU" as the mounting anger seeps deep into his soul. His eyes begin to boil. He crumbles up the nice speech and decides to give the people what they really deserve.
POWERS THAT BE
"Really? REALLYY!!?? YOU FUCKING INGRATES! I should kill each of you! Mhmmm... BUT that would be too easy and get us banned from Network! You don't want me? WELL I DON'T WANT YOU! Lindy LeVeaux and Dr.Sly were given one very simple task, find out what happened to Eden, and MAKE CHANGES! THEY FAILED! Noah Hanson pulled the wool over all our eyes, and now V and Noah sit in cold cells within the Asylum. THERE WILL BE CONSEQUENCES! Ohhh yes. I was willing to forgive and forget! YOUUUUUU people don't want to play ball? FINE! THOSE CONSEQUENCES START NOW! Dr.Sly, get out here! You too Lindy!"
Governors of both programs reluctantly are seen back stage asking each other what their boss is up to. They come out together standing on opposing sides of the Fearless Leader. Fans continue to BOO because they like the two despite their flaws, they are nowhere near as much of a total dick as this dude.
POWERS THAT BE
"YOU TWO FAILLLEDDDDD!!!!! YOU FAILED to get to V before he took out Eden! YOU FAILED to put a competent team together, instead using douchebags like Hanari Carnes!! FAILLLEDD to get out in front of Noah's bullshit! AND FAILEDDDDD to work together, instead causing both of you to fall behind the facts and out of the loop! LINDY- YOU will remain Governor of Dystopia, but you will lose... YOUR... PARKING SPOT!"
She cries and begs him to stop but his madness knows no bounds. Sly grins not worried now if all he needs is a new place to park his Chevy. Fearless Leader turns back toward Sly as Lindy sobs uncontrollably, her spot was painted pink just for her.
POWERS THAT BE
"AND WHO GETS your spot!? Your new babysitter, someone twice the woman you are with the gold to prove it! Dystopia's newest bombshell, the QUEEN OF WRESTLING, JENNNNYYYY MYSSTTTT!"
Lindy yelps in protest as Jenny Myst hops over the barrier from the crowd. She pushes Lindy, asserting herself over the situation, the Doctor no longer grinning but now nervously awaiting his own orders. The crowd chants "PUNISH NOAH, PUNISH V!"
POWERS THAT BE
"I am GETTING TO THEM! BUT FIRST- Sylvester Sly, you're lucky we even let you practice medicine, because that's exactly what you need more of! For you part in this... YOU ARE BANISHED TO THE INFIRMARY AND FIRED AS GOVERNOR OF SANATORIUM!!"
Sly drops to his knees with a murderous stare as security comes and drags him back assumably to the Asylum. Fans boo as he had just replaced Eden as Warden, now unsure who will be taking over.
POWERS THAT BE
"YOUR NEW GOVERNOR of SANATORIUM ISSSS... one of the names no one in wrestling can forget, one of the few truly powerful figures in allllllllll of entertainment. His presence is far less disappointing. Someone who can navigate any turbulent tide. DDDDONOVAN BLACKWATERR!"
A man emerges with a confident smile and a bag clutched tight in his left hand. Fearless Leader points at him with a smug shit eating smile. Fans murmur unsure what to think of Lindy keeping her job with a new babysitter named Jenny Myst, and Sly being banned back to the Infirmary and replaced by Blackwater.
POWERS THAT BE
"Don't worrrrrry! Asylum is in good hands... but this is about Dystopia. Tonight we will have two worthy men, the WWH World Champion Zolton, and the War of Attrition winner Jonny Cedrone sign a contract to compete at DREAMSTATE!"
Fans begin to come around as they love the DreamState show every year.
POWERS THAT BE
"And Donovan has a special surprise, which is the real reason he is here, oh, and congrats on being GOV!"
Donovan grabs a spare microphone from a stage tech off the the side.
ASYLUM GM | DONOVAN BLACKWATER
"Thank you Fearless Leader."
He brings the mic in his right hand to his lips.
ASYLUM GM | DONOVAN BLACKWATER
"That's right. I am not just here to watch failing leaders get their punishment... as amusing as it is. I am also here to announce that as Sanatorium GM, V has proven to not be a team player plotting against the former Warden- so he will be STRIPPED OF THE ASYLUM WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP! Meaning a new Champion will be crowned as top title holder of Sanatorium! Effective immediately!"
The tron cuts to V in his holding cell awaiting his match with Azrael. He punches the wall many times having held onto the title to protect it for his sister Nikki Caldwell.
ASLYUM GM | DONOVAN BLACKWATER
"So while Z and the King of Sexy battle at DreamState for the top Dystopia honor... we will crown a new King of Asylum just as soon as we can based on the contenders. BUTTTT there's more!!!"
A mixed bag of reactions happen as shocked faces are zoomed in on by HQ camera angles.
ASYLUM GM | DONOVAN BLACKWATER
"While those titles remain the top tier of each show as the warriors and inmates battle for the right to achieve their glory, we have decided that a Crown needs to be more than WOA or Shogun winning getting shots at them. We need to determine who the OVERALL TOP KILLERS are. And in the end, there can only be one, despite other impressive qualifying achievements. SO- DREAMSTATE 2021 will forever be known as the day the HQ stood still..."
Awe consumes the arena in Anaheim. People whisper trying to understand what exactly that means.
ASYLUM GM | DONOVAN BLACKWATER
"WE NEEEEEED SOMEONE WHO IS...
UNDISPUTED.
UNRIVALED.
A CHAMPION OF CHAMPIONS."
He removes the bag from the item under his left arm, as people gasp at a WWH Blue bejeweled Championship belt twice as big as the Dystopian WWH World or Sanatorium Asylum World Championships.
ASYLUM GM | DONOVAN BLACKWATER
"Introducing the Undisputed Unrivaled Heavyweight championship."
Fearless Leader smiles wide gesturing toward the gorgeous diamond and blue gold.
ASYLUM GM | DONOVAN BACKWATER
"To win it... challengers must be an existing title holder of any title on any show. They must defeat another champion who is also holding a title from any show... or is the existing Unrivaled Champion. For the title to change hands the challenger must win that match, and successfully defend their existing Championship on the SAME CARD. We want to know who the top dog is. We want to see someone dominate and earn the title as top fucking dog of HQ. So who will it be? Z? Jonny? Stephanie? Legion? Jones? Jonna? Iconoclast? The next Womens or Asylum champions?"
Fans lose their shit understanding that someone will have to defend a belt and win against another champion to earn the new one. Fearless Leader, Jenny Myst, and Dystopia Governess Lindy LeVeaux all walk to the back. Donovan turns to follow them, then turns back at the last second with a parting word before the show starts.
ASYLUM GM | DONOVAN BLACKWATER
"Oh, and the first match is at DREAMSTATE! Will it be won? Or will the competitors prove too overwhelmed by having to win two title matches the same night? Who will it BEEEEE?"
Fans chant "TELL US, TELL US!" Blackwater brings the mic back to his lips, hoisting the next title over his shoulder. He admires it, then looks up, dropping the mic, and heading to the back as the music for Dystopia comes over the PA.
As the scene opens, we see Lilith Evans getting ready for her day. Lilith's hair is somewhat wet from the shower she just took as she is in a pair of jeans and just a black tank top. After a few moments, a knock comes to her door.
Lilith
"It’s open."
The door opens to reveal a young lady. She walks in.
Elayna Jade
"Good Morning, Miss Lilith."
Lilith
"Good Morning Elayna, how may I help you this morning?"
Elayna smiles.
Elayna Jade
"I am just the messenger. But your presence is requested by Lady Black and Miss Charlotte in the fancy throne-like room."
Lilith
"Please let them know that I will be there in 10 minutes."
Elayna Jade
"Yes, ma’am."
Then she disappears out of the room and as she does, a card of some kind appears in her place. Lilith walks over picking up the card. She looks at it and it's revealed to be a tarot card.
Lilith
"Hmm, wonder what this means?"
A voice rings out from the hall.
Voice
"It means good luck."
Lilith just grins as she finishes getting dressed and walks down to the room. She gets to the room and sees all the other ladies that reside within the manor. As she walks in, the doors close behind her.
Voice
"Ah Lilith, I see you have made it to the festivities."
Lilith
"I am sorry to hold you up."
Voice
"Hold us up? My dear, have you not noticed that time sometimes works a little differently around us. Plus, most of us are effectively 'immortal.'"
Then a man dressed in a nicely tailored suit holding a book of some kind suddenly appears next to her.
Isaak Havoc
"I am Isaak Havoc. I am one of the main “bookkeepers” for The Order of The Soulless and The Soulless Sisters. Come now, we have much to go over."
Lilith
"As you wish."
He starts telling her the story of The Order of The Soulless as they walk up to be directly in front of an ornate-looking throne. And sitting in said throne is “The Soulless Queen” herself, Lady Gwendolyn Black, dressed in the most gorgeous looking regal attire ever.
“The Soulless Queen” Lady Gwendolyn Black
"Good morning everyone."
Everyone
"Good Morning Lady Blacccck."
She nods.
“The Soulless Queen” Lady Gwendolyn Black
"Today is the most joyous of days. As we will be officially initiating a new member into the fold on this day."
Elayna smiles at Lilith pointing to the tarot card in her hand. Lilith just nods as she takes a deep breath. Then Isaak Havoc walks up to a podium of sorts and puts it and the book he was holding in front of Lady Black. Then she opens the book and starts to read from it. As she does, “The Slayer” Charlotte Ross walks up to be next to Lilith.
“The Slayer” Charlotte Ross
"Hello, my dear."
Lilith
"Hello Lady Ross."
“The Slayer” Charlotte Ross
"Please, you can call me Charlotte. She’s the one who’s more into the fancy titles and whatnot. I see you got a card from Elayna Jade. She’s our resident fortune teller and whatnot."
She motions to Gwen who is reading from the book.
Lilith
"Yes I did."
“The Slayer” Charlotte Ross
"And it looks like a good one. That’s the Ace of Pentacles, it means an opportunity is coming to fruition."
Lilith
"Ah, I guess I am the lucky one."
Charlotte nods. Then Isaak motions Lilith forward as Charlotte follows behind her.
“The Soulless Queen” Lady Gwendolyn Black
"Lilith Evans, do you have questions before we proceed?"
Lilith
"No Lady Black."
“The Soulless Queen” Lady Gwendolyn Black
"Alright. As per tradition of The Order of the Soulless, we anoint you with some sacramental oil."
Isaak pulls a fancy vial out from a pocket in his coat and hands it to Lady Black. She nods at Issak as he takes a few steps back. Lady Black puts a little bit of the oil onto her fingers and traces a symbol into her forehead.
“The Soulless Queen” Lady Gwendolyn Black
"You have now been anointed with the oils of protection as per the tradition of The Order of The Soulless. Now, we shall perform the second ceremony of initiation."
She walks back over to near the throne and grabs a sword from above it. After a few moments, she walks back over to them. She nods at Charlotte who takes the sword.
“The Slayer” Charlotte Ross
"As per the second tradition of The Order of The Soulless, you will be touched by Blade of Light and Darkness. This will grant you the strength to fight through anything and for the glory of the Lords of Light and Darkness."
Then Charlotte touches the sword to each of Lilith’s shoulders before handing the blade back to Lady Black. Then she places the sword back in it’s rightful place.
“The Soulless Queen” Lady Gwendolyn Black
"Now we shall perform the final tradition."
She motions to Lilith to walk forward. Lilith comes forward. Lady Black kisses each of her cheeks before showing her the book from before and presenting it to her.
“The Soulless Queen” Lady Gwendolyn Black
"Please open this book and read the passage on the last page to yourself before we proceed."
Lilith does as she is told and proceeds to read the page before looking at her and nods. Lady Black smiles.
“The Soulless Queen” Lady Gwendolyn Black
"Ladies and Gentlemen in attendance today, say hello to the newest official member of The Order of the Soulless and The Soulless Sisters, Lilith Evans."
Everyone in attendance claps and cheers. Lilith gives a little smile and a nod. Charlotte looks at her.
“The Slayer” Charlotte Ross
"Welcome to the team, my dear. Ready to show Iconoclast and the rest of the W.W.H., what the Soulless Sisters are made of?"
Lilith
"It will be my pleasure to do so."
Charlotte gives her a hug as the scene fades to black.

CHELSEA LOCKHART
[VS]
HANARI CARNES
+
Chelsea comes out acting strange as the crowd is unsure how to respond but still cheer for her against the scummy Hanari Carnes. There is not much competition, sadly, as Hanari uses his superior wrestling arsenal to dissect every attempted move from clotheslines to drop kicks, to leg sweeps by Lockhart. Still though, she seems very shaky as if not thinking clearly. She eventually walks into Carnes baiting her, he rolls her up quickly using the ropes to get the three count. He gets up confused by how easy a victory it was as the fans still murmur about his tactics being disgusting even then.
Powers that be stands at the top of the ramp. Our Fearless Leader walks down, then confronts Chelsea, grabbing her chin and looking into her eyes. He shoves her back down with a putrid look on his face. He signals for security and points toward the entrance as if to fire Lockhart for being under some type of influence. She has snarky comments, but it doesn't matter as she is escorted from the building.
WINNER:
HANARI CARNES
The Anaheim crowd is still pumped up from the last match on Dystopia! The night has been rolling along well, and the crowd is hooting and hollering into the arena. There's a few loud whistles while the crowd waits for the next part of the show, when without warning, "Awake and Alive" by Skillet pours through the PA system. THere's a couple cheers in the crowd, but mostly confused reactions. Some cheer simply to keep the heat of the night going. "Iron" Adam Malone comes from behind the black curtain, looking out onto the crowd with a smile on his face. Surprisingly, he doesn't fully walk down to the ring, but motions for the music to cut. He brings the microphone to his mouth.
"IRON" | ADAM MALONE
"Wow! You can just feel the energy in here, feel the excitement all around you! I know those cheers I heard on the way in weren't for me, but for the match we've just witnessed right before this. Damn, what a match! Can we get another round of applause for actually each and every match that's been on the card thus far, because we really have had one stellar Dystopia so far. Don't you agree, Anaheim?!"
A pause from Adam as the Anaheim crowd gets loud again for a few seconds, before quieting down again. Adam begins his descent down to the WWH ring down the steel ramp.
"IRON" | ADAM MALONE
"There may be some people in the crowd who know who I am, but I'm betting that you're a little bit...older. I know, I said the O word - but don't worry, I think I heard one of the kids in the back call me Grandpa Malone so we're not alone, Gen X. Most of you won't recognize my name I'm that's alright. I knew when I signed here that I was going to have to start from the bottom of anywhere I signed, especially with respect on my name. Truth be told, this is the first time I've been inside a wrestling ring in over ten years. Ten long years since I've stepped in between these ropes. Ten long years since doctor's told me I had broken my neck, and they didn't know if I'd ever be back inside these ropes again. Well...here I am...inside this ring, between these ropes."
Malone slides underneath the bottom rope, getting to his feet. He leans against the ring ropes, feeling them within his hands. The look on his face is as if he's saying hello to an old friend he hasn't seen in a while. You can almost see a tear in his eyes.
"IRON" | ADAM MALONE
"That's who I am. Iron Adam Malone. It may have taken me ten years of clawing my way back into this business but I did it. Now, I can already see the people who are going to look down on that. They're going to tell me I took too long, didn't try hard enough, didn't want it enough. Many people fall off of this business, they're lost to the abyss, never to be heard from again. Sure, I've struggled. But I told myself I wasn't going to be a statistic, and here I am."
Adam smiles as brightly as ever, outstretching his arms. The Anaheim crowd begins to cheer for Malone this time. He respectfully asks the crowd to quiet down, believing he does not deserve the cheers just yet.
"IRON" | ADAM MALONE
"It's true, the place I used to know is long gone. But you know what, this mat here in WWH, reminds me a lot of the place I used to know, the place I used to call home. I looked far and wide for somewhere that had that same feel, that same flare. The competition here is so strong, so fierce...I think WWH is a place I could grow to call my new home."
Adam pauses again, but this time it looks like he doesn't mean to do it. Instead, it almost seems like he gets a little choked up at the thought of returning to his prime, and feeling at home inside a wrestling ring again.
"IRON" | ADAM MALONE
"You may now know me yet WWH, but you'll grow to love me! I'll see you the first week of September!"
"Awake and Alive" by Skillet hits again, and Adam steps up on the second rope, throwing his hand into the air and waving to the WWH crowd. He drops to the mat, sliding out of the ring and walking back up the ramp.

AZRAEL EREBUS
[VS]
V (AC)
+
White Rabbit by Egypt Central plays in the arena Azreal steps on the stage accompanied by his wife Rebel Star, the crowd has a mixed reaction to them as they make their way to the ring, Azreal perches on the top ropes and awaits his opponent. V walks out cold escorted by Asylum guards after his attempted coo on Sanatorium.
The bell sounding before the two met each other with right hooks to each other’s jaws. Both caught each other off guard with the respective right hooks, but it didn’t keep Azrael off guard for long. He leaps into the air and hit V with a standing dropkick, sending the champion stumbling back some. The champion quickly regained himself, but Azrael was charring at him, aiming to hit a super kick, but V dodged the kick only to hit Azrael with a rough elbow into the outstretched knee, a loud thud coming from the impact. Azrael cried a touch, simply from the unexpected pain into his knee. He stumbled for a minute, moving his leg around to get rid of the sudden pain, and V took that opportunity to roll out of the ring. He began pulling weapons from under the ring. Baseball bats, kendo sticks, and chairs went flying to the ring while a couple of trash cans, a toolbox, and a table were tossed out onto the floor.
In pulling out the weapons, former Asylum Champion V didn’t realize that Azrael had grabbed a kendo stick and made his way out of the ring, clocking V across the back with the weapon. V tensed up and arched his back at the impact, going down to a knee from the sudden and painful impact. Azrael didn’t let up and took the kendo stick across V’s back numerous times, each hit stronger and worse than the last. The stick ended up snapping in half across V’s back, and that was when Azrael finally tossed it away. Seeing the man now laid out on the floor, Azrael took advantage and climbed onto the ring apron then the turnbuckles. Without making sure if V was still down or not, Azrael leaped off the top turnbuckle, hitting V with End Transmission!
Knowing he couldn’t win the match by pinfall, Azrael got back to his feet and began slamming lefts and rights into V’s face, tenderizing the face in a way. V blocked a few of the punches here and there but was unable to get any notable offense in until he felt around on the floor, finding a trash can lid and grabbing it. He brought his arm up and slammed the lid into the side of Azrael’s head, catching the other competitor off guard enough for V to toss his opponent into the barrier at ringside, the other’s head snapping off of the barrier upon impact.
This gave V an all too important few moments to try and get his wits about him, shaking his head a bit he went over to Azrael who had used the barricade to climb to his feet only to grab him and hit him with a snap suplex onto one of the trash cans that he had thrown out onto the floor. Azrael arched his back, grabbing at it from the force of the impact. V rolled into the ring long enough to grab a baseball bat and roll back out of the ring, stalking Azrael as he wound up like a World Series batter going for the winning home run. When he swung the bat, V ended up meeting the barricade as Azrael had ducked out of the way. The vibrations from the impact caused V to drop the bat and shake his hands with Azrael picking it up in the process. The new inmate swung the bat at a high velocity, clocking V right in the temple, sending him flying down to the floor. The referee checked on V simply because of the impact to the temple then realized that he had begun bleeding. He signaled for the bell and raised Azrael’s hand in victory for a moment before going back to tending to V who hadn’t moved much after the shot to the temple. V is taken by medics to the back.
WINNER:
AZRAEL EREBUS
The camera slowly fades into Christy backstage inside the Honda center ,she’s sitting on a production crate reading a book.
Christy Winters
"Oh. hello I didn’t see you there, guess I was too into this book, very interesting read, very interesting indeed."
Christy flips through several pages.
Christy Winters
"This could work, and I know this would work... Zane we’ve bantered back and forth but now the time for talk is over, and yes I know I lost my last match to that human pile of excrement Hanari Carnes, but hey everyone knows by now how he actually got credit for beating me..."
She grins wide.
Christy Winters
"Zane, this book has been very informative and I’ve several things for it that I can use tonight to put you down permanently, and if it takes everyone so *Censored* be it, I don’t intend to lose again, and tonight every one of these Anaheim loser will see me put you down for the count, because hey I have the working manuel to do, so see you out there Zane-"
Christy closes the book and the camera zooms in on the title.

ZANE NORRISON
+
The match between newcomer Zane Norrison and the already established Sanatorium superstar Christy Winters was getting off to an amazing start with Brittany Fraser standing in her client’s/ lover’s corner. Zane decided to have the pretty Nyx in his corner for the night. The match was going back and forth with Miss Winters trying to gnaw on Zane’s body trying to make him bleed but Mr. Norrison flipped Miss Winters over and prevent her from trying to “ end” his life right in front of the fans that was not only seen watching the match live but some fans was seen watching the match in their homes via tv.
They stagger each other at times back and forth going at it. Right hands and left forearms, kicks, jabs, and hooks lead to slams, drops, and signatures. The two get more tired wearing the other out with a fierce competitiveness only seen in the best matches of all time. Zane dives in but Christy avoids it, propelling his momentum into the ring post. Christy hits her finisher on the woozy Norrison who barely gets a shoulder up. Frustration boils in the face of Winters. She goes for another finisher but Zane pushes her into the corner, then elbows her head repeatedly. Christy crumbles to her knees, Zane gets her up to the top rope. They struggled for a moment, then both fall side by side sabotaging the others move from the top rope.
Zane gets back up as does Winters just before the 10 count. Christy tries to grab him by the waist, but Zane flips it around into a massive facebuster. Winters looks nearly out, but Zane positions her hitting his Doomed Nation finisher on as the referee slaps the mat three times to finish the match. The referee raised the Gothic looking man’s right arm as a sign of victory, declaring him Number One Contender for the Affliction title.
WINNER:
ZANE NORRISON

The camera opens to Dystopia interviewer Faith Wilde trying to get the attention of International Champion Stephanie “Cloud” Matsuda as she walks down the corridor with her titles in her possession. The Queen of Fighters seems focused and deep in thought. Faith walked alongside Stephanie for a moment before asking any questions.
INTERVIEWER | FAITH WILDE
"Stephanie! It’s great to see you again! Tonight you have a match with Hive member Kassandra! Now you had some choice words about her affiliation with the Hive, comparing it to your own experience while walking on the dark side. Do you think you created some kind of breakthrough or kinship with her?"
Stephanie casually shrugged her shoulders and shook her head.
QUEEN OF FIGHTERS | STEPHANIE MATSUDA
"Someone as indoctrinated as Kassandra won’t break easily from her chains. It’s going to take a lot of deep reflection and perhaps a shock to the system to wake her up. Personally, I don’t mind being the one to initiate things for her. But, she’ll have to put in the work herself."
INTERVIEWER | FAITH WILDE
"Do you have any specific plans that’ll bring that out of her?"
Stephanie rubbed her chin for a moment and casually shrugged her shoulders in response.
QUEEN OF FIGHTERS | STEPHANIE MATSUDA
"Kick her ass, I guess."
Faith looks on in confusion as she watches Stephanie walk away.

The match kicks off with Chaos in the ring versus Charlotte Ross. The two circle as Chaos has a crazed look in his eye. They go to tie up, however, and Chaos backs off. He grins and tags in Reno. Ross looks at Chaos weird but resets. Reno circles and when they go to tie up, Reno tags in Chaos. The commentator talks about "mind games". Chaos charges, Ross ducks it, and off the rebound he almost takes her head off with a boot. The crowd boos. He picks her up by the hair. The two go back and forth for a bit, ending up in the corner. The two trade blows before Chaos ends up in the corner where Ross tags in Evans. After some back and forth, Chaos is able to get to the tag on Reno.
Gabe comes in like a bat out of hell, taking both ladies out, sending Ross off the apron to the barricade below. As Reno goes to work on Evans in the ring, Chaos rolls outside the ring to go after Ross. As Chaos and Ross battle around the outside, Reno hits the top rope. He flies off but Ross side steps. He crashes and burns. Chaos rolls into the ring and gets table topped by the two ladies. They go for the pin but the ref waves it off, claiming Gabe is legal man and begins to count him out.
Gabe gets back into the ring before the 10 count. The 4 battle it out before the ref separates. Chaos takes a cheap shot on Evans as the ref gets them back to their corners. Gabe capitalizes and rushes to a pin. Ref turns, sees it. Counts. 1-2. She gets a shoulder up. Gabe tags in Chaos. He does some work on Evans, starting to take the match over. Chaos whips her into the corner, and Ross tags herself in. Chaos doesn't see it. Gabe complains to ref. Ross takes out Chaos's leg and rolls him up, small package pin, with her feet on the ropes. 1-2-2.5- Chris kicks out of it and Gabe breaths a sigh of relief.
Charlotte locks in an ankle lock on Chaos and he reaches out for the ropes or a tag. Eventually he is able to tag Reno in again, he rushes in to rally, but Lily round house kicks him from out of nowhere. Gabe falls, Charlotte goes for the cover as Chaos rushes back in with a spear on Lily for her deception in kicking Gabe. Ross abandons the cover seeing her teammate speared, Chaos bend down to tag himself in as Gabe rolls out of the ring. Ross goes for her finisher but at the last second Chaos counters it, she turns around to re-gather him, he ducks under, she turns again, he ducks under, she turns again now a bit off balance and dizzy, Chris ducks once more propelling off the ropes for another spear. The ref counted to three as Lily's break up attempt is slightly late. The Soulless sit both holding their abdomens from spears while seething watching Iconoclast walk up the ramp with their old titles.

We return to the ringside area after a brief commercial break. After the riveting opener that was the W.W.H. World Tag Team Title Match between the Iconoclast and The Soulless Sisters, "Dirty Little Secret” by All American Rejects plays over the sound system. After a few moments, Sarah Lynn and Kristy Mascara make their way to the ring. Then "Back from The Dead" by Halestorm comes over the sound system. Then Abby Evans and Mya Denton make their way out to the ring.
The referee does a quick check of all the competitors to make sure they understand the rules of the match and that aren't trying to bring in anything illegal or foreign objects. They each nod and square up before giving each other a handshake. Then the referee tells them one in and one out. Abby Evans and Sarah Lynn start in the ring before the referee signals for the bell.
Then Abby and Sarah circle each other before Sarah quickly grabs Abby and appears to be going for the finish already with her Twist of Fate. But Abby immediately counters out of it and weasels her way to putting her into her own finisher, Cut Throat (a Swinging Reverse STO.) But Sarah counters out of it as they attack each other for a bit before they tag in their respective partners. Then Mya and Kristy lock up for a bit by exchanging various grapples and wear down holds.
Then fate smiles upon Mya, as Sarah taps! Sarah taps and we have winners! Lindy LeVeaux, Governess of Dystopia walks out with her new babysitter jenny Myst by her side. Lindy says that the pink slip will not be honored, and tears up the contract termination papers via Jenny Myst's new instruction as given by Power That Be in having Lindy babysat.

Both teams survive the pink slip.
Out in the parking lot of the Honda Arena in Anaheim, California, a camera crew was standing, watching as various employees as well as some last minute fans arrived for the show. One of those late arrivals pulled up, the engine in the 2021 Ford F-150 Limited roaring loudly as the Affliction Champion, Jonna Austin, pulled the smoked quartz gray truck into a parking spot that was reserved for champions and management. She took a few moments to turn the truck off as well as grab her duffel bag from the backseat, lightly slamming the doors shut after locking them. As the woman came around the back of the truck, the camera crew gently jogged over to her to get a few words from her. She had the Affliction Championship thrown over her shoulder proudly, not wanting to hide the beautiful belt.
Jonna Austin
"Jesus Christ...I can't even get in the arena before y'all are surrounding me, can I? Then again, after the match I had at Silence, I'm not surprised that you're out here waiting for me. Before anyone asks, Harper's already in the arena waiting for me. And like the new truck? I decided to treat myself after winning my first championship in my career. That is a pretty big accomplishment, after all."
The small camera crew all nodded and murmured in agreement with the newly crowned champ. Whether they actually agreed or not was left to be truly known, but they knew better then to even accidentally anger the second generation wrestler. Anyone stupid enough to anger someone of her lineage...well they rightfully got what they deserved in the long run.
Jonna Austin
"Now tonight I'm facing Tarja...Legion, whatever the Hell she goes by. I work with her elsewhere as well, and the level of impressiveness that she holds there is just as much as she holds here...a downright pathetic level. What's even worse, for her at least, is that she has to handle me in a ladder match of all match types. I got contendership to this beauty in a ladder match in the first place...does Legion really think that I won't be able to have a repeat performance tonight?"
Jonna paused for a moment, adjusting the title on her shoulder and adjusting the grip on her duffle bag as well. She licked her lips as she held the pause, collecting herself internally. The Texas native wanted to make sure that her point was well made as well as well delivered.
Jonna Austin
"Everything I've said I would do, I've accomplished. Legion enjoys running her mouth on Twitter and such, but she's rarely able to ever actually hold herself true to what she says. She seems to enjoy acting like this badass, supernatural bitch when in reality she couldn't hold a candle to someone that is a true demon. Legion is nothing but a scared little puppy that wants to tuck tail, run, and hide behind others for real protection. She is NOTHING compared to me, and tonight will just be a chance for me to prove that to her as well as everyone else."
The dark haired beauty paused once more, running a hand through her down hair. She glanced at the Affliction Championship that was resting across her shoulder then looked back towards the camera, a smirk on her face. She began moving towards the camera a bit before she spoke again.
Jonna Austin
"Enjoy falling, Legion...it's a long, hard fall to the mat; it's an even harder fall to the floor. While I would say I hope you're prepared for tonight, I'm not going to lie to you. You could never be prepared for me, not now nor ever. However, I do hope you're prepared to fall once again. I'll see you soon."
With that, Jonna winked and blew a little kiss into the camera before walking away. The camera followed her until she got into the arena then the feed cut out.

[VS]
CHRIS MATTHEWS
+
Aaron Jones and Chris Matthews, stare each other down, in the center of the squared circle. Eyes locked, Chris' features encased in a stoic stance of stone, while a baneful, sneer slips across Jones' face. This consideration for one another remains set in place as the swell of tension fills the void, strong enough to push everyone out of the arena, almost as if it were far more than a mere sensation and perchance, a poltergeist or malevolent spirit. An energy that takes on an essence, all of its own, while on the outside of the ring the fans lose their minds, utterly enthralled to witness this fray unfold. A mere nod from the ref, is all that it takes and this fight... begins!
What a battle, indeed!
Both men, immediately clash and begin exchanging blows. A fierce transfer of rights and lefts, both evenly matched and avoided, alike. Neither skipping a beat in this symphony of human destruction. Till Matthews breaks the cycle, with a head-butt! Aaron, stumbles back, his hands instantly flying up to his injured nose and as this occurs, Chris takes this moment to level Jones, to the mat.
Courtesy of a Standing Moonsault! Shortly followed by ripping Jones from the canvas, by his hair in order to execute - One Shot! One Kill! The crowd goes wild over this well performed Pedigree and it nearly seems as though, this skirmish shall end quickly, even after it had only just begun. Yet, this is not the case and after Aaron, thwarts an eagerly swift pin attempt by popping a shoulder up, both men regain their upright footing, when they rise and face each other once more.
Rushing at each other, starving for victory, the correspondence of blows are all the more brutal and unrelenting. The aftermath effect, mirrors this savage determination as well, tenfold. With the instant appearance of welts, bruises and blood. The men look a mess, sweating and breathing heavy, seeming as though they've been through a war and as they say... war is hell.
Few would deny, either of these men... failing to claim a win by this point, isn't even remotely close to a sign of weakness as most would not survive the ordeal, themselves. Somehow, Jones and Matthews scrape by and carry forth; however, this is when in an almost animalistic, desperate attempt, Aaron delivers a powerhouse combo of punches and kicks, before performing - Insanity Crash!
As Matthew's body thunders against the canvas and the audience gives an avalanche style standing ovation, Aaron Jones goes for the pin! It is a successful venture too! The fans still keep shrieking, well after the final hand smack to the mat and the three count ceases to be a thing. Meanwhile, Aaron Jones basks in the spoils of a hard fought match, clearly displaying the souvenirs of the fight, yet smiling right through the pain, just the same.
WINNER:
'INSANITY' AARON JONES

KASSANDRA
[VS]
STEPHANIE MATSUDA (IC)
+
The undefeated Stephanie Matsuda finishes her entrance and enters the ring opposite Kassandra. Referee makes final sweeps over both combatants then calls for the bell. The two begin to circle each other, fainting here and there to see how the other will react. Finally they tie up. It’s a struggle but Kassandra gets the upper hand and pushes Matsuda to a corner. Holding her there before the referee steps in to break it up and forcing Kassandra back. Just when the referee moves, Kassandra like a starving wolf on a road kill, she launches at Matsuda with a forearm smash right across the face. Matsuda fights back though. A strike of her own and a forearm shiver to get some distance between her and her foe.
Matsuda then explodes quickly off the middle rope at Kassandra going for an elbow to the top of Kassandra’s head only to be reversed into a DDT and Kassandra goes for the pin only to get a two count. Kassandra wasting no time using her advantage, she brings her opponent to a standing position and shoves her into the ropes, upon Matsuda’s return, Kassandra executes a gut wrench slam only to receive another two count. Kassandra rises to her feet, Matsuda rolls to the ring apron just outside the ropes, she stands and is able to slam her shoulder into the coming Kassandra then launches into a sunset flip only to get a two count as well. Not discouraged, she continues to maintain the upper hand.
As the action picks up. Getting closer to the climax and possible end of the match, these women battle each other. Reversal after reversal now. Neither one being able to maintain the advantage long. Pinning combo into pinning combo, each kicking out quicker than before. Here we are. Kassandra has Matsuda in position for her infamous Kass Smash (Riptide) finishing maneuver but just as she does, Stephanie reverses it into a version of a dragon sleeper, will this be it for Kassandra, or will she get out of it?
Kassandra manages to break the hold. She staggers, grumpily up to her feet, an utter mess but determined to win. Catches Matsuda with a Roundhouse Kick, that plants Matsuda on the canvas, then goes for a quick, roll up pin. With great success!
WINNER:
KASSANDRA
Stephanie's undefeated streak ends.
As we open, the only thing within the shot is that of a burning flame. It engulfs the entirety of the shot for a few seconds, probably about five, but as a viewer it probably feels like slightly to long to be looking at fire and nothing more. Still, it seems almost pleasant. Just as you settle it, the shot begins to zoom out at a quickening pace, until a second entity enters the ever widening frame.
THE SOUTH AFRICAN SPITFIRE | ASHE FAME
"Over the years, I've watched as this place build itself from the ground up. Within the last couple, it's risen from the ashes, only to halt right here on this plateau. Now, the World Wrestling Headquarters is looking to RISE once again..."
The shot finally settles just outside the figure of the woman who had been speaking. She's wearing a loose fitting jersey, her hair tied to one side, and sunglasses slung across her face. She has a distinct South African accent, that sometimes sounds British to the untrained ear.
THE SOUTH AFRICAN SPITFIRE | ASHE FAME
"In just a few moments, we're going to witness a ladder match to determine the woman who will lead WWH into this new era as the Women's Champion. Legion taking on Jonna Austin. I'm sure they're going to fight to the death to decide the victor. These two women are hoping to uphold the legacy that has been set by women that came before them. Women like Elena DeDraca, women like Alicia Lukas, women like Renee Jonae. If any of these women were here right now, do you know what I think they'd say about this Women's title match? I think they'd say that women like Legion, and Jonna Austin, deserve..."
She pauses, looking off into the distance with a smile upon her face. A moment later, and the smile, so full of hope and promise, transitions into a sly smirk. She turns back to the camera.
THE SOUTH AFRICAN SPITFIRE | ASHE FAME
"...well, they deserve a crock of shit, innit?"
She shakes her head back and forth, almost chuckling a bit when she imagines the surprise on their faces.
THE SOUTH AFRICAN SPITFIRE | ASHE FAME
"I'm not gonna sugarcoat it, sweetums, the womens division here in WWH has fallen immensely since Renee decided she wanted to mix it up with the guys. That's all fine and dandy, but she didn't really leave anyone strong to take over for her, did she? She didn't leave anyone who could take charge of this division and whip these women into shape."
Her hand comes up, and slides across her knee with a loud smack, as if to signify someone's head coming across it. The sunglasses come off her face, giving the lens a better view of her eyes.
THE SOUTH AFRICAN SPITFIRE | ASHE FAME
"Don't worry, loves. I'm not one of those gals that waltzs into a company she's just signed with, and demands a title shot. I've been on the indys long enough to know how it works here in the business, and I'll happily take my place in line. All I'm sayin, is I'm lookin' at you Jonna, and I'm lookin' at you, Legion. If you two thought this Era was yours to take...think again!"
Ashe points into the camera, almost as if she's speaking directly to Jonna and Legion. She brushes her right shoulder off.
THE SOUTH AFRICAN SPITFIRE | ASHE FAME
"My name is Ashe Fame...Get ready girls, I'm about to make this whole division FAMOUS!"
With a flick of her wrist, it looks like she tosses something into the nearby fire, causing it to burst. The camera goes black, leaving us in darkness and nothing but a giggle from Ashe Fame.

LADDER MATCH WOMENS TITLE
LEGION (DC)
[VS]
JONNA AUSTIN (AC)
+
From the start, we knew this was going to be a brawl. As the bell rang, the two moved forward on each other, getting in each other's face...which looked a little strange. Legion, looking crazy as hell, but standing only 5'0 while Jonna towers over her at 6'2". As usual though, it doesn't look like Legion is even thinking about giving in, and thus the two come to blows only a few seconds later. The two women really showcased further that their two styles couldn't be further from one another. Jonna kept her offense with brawling right hands and slower power moves, as she lifted Legion into the air with a powerslam. Getting to her feet, she followed it up with a running senton, almost flattening Legion.
Legion however showcased that small doesn't mean weak, bouncing off the ropes with a thesz press, and bringing Jonna right back down to the canvas with a chokehold STO as Jonna tried to get up. This back and forth takes place before a ladder even enters the equation. Legion breaks out a moment of pure strength as the 5foot whips out a gut wrench powerbomb on the 6'2" powerhouse. Jonna rolls to the outside, landing on her feet and clutching her back. Legion leaps through the ropes, trying to a suicide dive but is caught by Jonna in a fall away slam position. However, Austin throws Legion to the side, and sends her hurling into the nearby barricade with a loud thud! She picks Legion up one more time in the same position, before hurling her into the nearby ladder, knocking it over!
This gives Jonna enough time to pick up the ladder and slide it into the ring, under the bottom rope. Jonna goes to pick up a chair for good measure, but has it super-kicked back into her face by Legion! Legion gets up onto the apron and goes from a moonsault, but Jonna rolls out of the way! The two battle on the outside a little longer, before Legion hits a bulldog on Jonna across the steps! This gives Legion enough time to climb the steps, stepping into the ring once again. She sets up the ladder, before she's grabbed from behind by Jonna.
Jonna goes to hit her with her signature twist of fate, but Legion reverses it! She pushes Jonna forward, sending her across the ring. Jonna rebounds hard, grabbing Legion on the way and slamming her down with a spinning side slam! It takes the wind out of the pair of them, each of them rolling to either side of the ladder that is still standing in the middle of the ring. They both look up into the air, seeing the WWH Women's World Championship hanging above them. At exactly the same time, they look across and see the other holding onto the bottom rung. Together, they both begin to ascend! With each step that Jonna takes, Legion takes! With each step that Legion takes, Jonna takes! Once at the top, the two women come to blows with right hands. Since Jonna is taller and a bit more powerful, she gets the better of the exchange, slamming Legion's head into the top of the ladder.
Legion's head bounces off the top of the ladder... but as it does, red mist sprays from her mouth! The mist goes everywhere, especially all in Jonna's eyes and she's blinded, crashing down to the floor below! The crowd goes crazy as Legion reaches up, finally claiming the WWH Women's World Championship! Becoming dual Demolition and Womens Champion!
WINNER:

"And now the time has come ladies and gentlemen! To make the World Championship match at DreamState official, this is the contract signing between the challenger, Jonny Cedrone and the World Champion himself, Zolton!"
Play by Play Commentator | Steele
"That’s Mr. Zolton to you Foster! The Mighty Zolton has shown nothing but dominance since becoming the World Champion and I’m more than confident that his dominance will continue through this so-called ‘challenger’ in Jonny Cedrone!"
Color Commentator | Caleb Foster
"Jonny Cedrone has faced fierce competition and has beaten the best that the World Wrestling Headquarters has to offer to get to this point though Jacob."
Play by Play Commentator | Steele
"What? And Zolton hasn’t? It was just at Silence that he defeated who seemed to have been heavily favored to win at Silence – Renee Jonae! And not just defeated her, he came just short of slaughtering her! He definitely made short work of her and will do the same with Jonny Cedrone. Mark my words Foster!"
Color Commentator | Caleb Foster
"Well, we’ll have to just agree to disagree for now because as we speak the Governor of Dystopia Lindy Leveaux is in the ring and ready to get this contract signed!"
The camera shot cuts to the lovely Lindy Leveaux who’s in the ring standing at the head of the table where the contract will be signed.
Dystopia Governor | Lindy Leveaux
"Ladies and gentlemen what we’re about to witness is the official contract signing for the match between challenger, Jonny Cedrone and World Champion Zolton for the most coveted prize in professional wrestling the WWH World Heavyweight Championship at DreamState!"
The fans give a pop.
Dystopia Governor | Lindy Leveaux
"Ever since winning the Championship, Zolton has been on a tear and has shown his dominance as a true warrior, as a true Champion…as a real man."
Fans in attendance boo heavily.
Dystopia Governor | Lindy Leveaux
"He has decimated every challenge that has been laid in front of him and it doesn’t seem to be any end in sight!"
More boos from the fans.
Dystopia Governor | Lindy Leveaux
"But for the past year and a half, the challenger Jonny Cedrone…"
Huge pop from the fans.
Dystopia Governor | Lindy Leveaux
"Jonny Cedrone has shown the world just why he’s considered to be one of the top athletes in this sport! He has shown the world just why he’s considered to be one of the greatest wrestlers in this sport! And he’s shown the world just what he’s aaalllll about!"
Another huge pop from the fans.
Dystopia Governor | Lindy Leveaux
"At War of Attrition, destiny was decided! These two great warriors began their paths towards one another! In a few weeks at DreamState, we will witness one of the most anticipated World Championship matches in WWH history as Jonny Cedrone will challenge Zolton for the World…Heavyweight…Championship!!"
Just then “Now That We’re Dead” by Metallica blares over the PA system much to the fans’ delight! After a few moments, Jonny Cedrone comes walking through the curtains and the fans really pop!
Color Commentator | Caleb Foster
"The fans really love him!"
Play by Play Commentator | Steele
"What?! I can’t hear you! These idiots are so damn loud I can’t even hear myself talk!"
Jonny, dressed in a pair of jeans, cowboy boots and a white t-shirt stands at the top of the stage and soaks in all of this adulation for a few moments before making his way down the aisle, slapping some of the outstretched hands of his fans.
Color Commentator | Caleb Foster
:Conspicuous by her absence, Miss Gloria isn’t accompanying her husband to this momentous occasion!"
Play by Play Commentator | Steele
"As much as I agree that Miss Gloria is easy on the eyes, I’d have to say that she’s a smart woman for not wanting to be here for this. You know contract signings in professional wrestling Foster! They never go smoothly."
Jonny makes his way to the ring, climbs the steps, takes a few steps onto the apron, wipes his feet, and steps through the ropes. He climbs each second turnbuckle to play to the fans some more before his music fades out. After a few brief moments the arena darkens as the "F8" by Five Finger Death Punch plays. The crowd boos heavily.
Play by Play Commentator | Steele
"And here comes the Mighty Zolton, Foster! You should bow down to the legend that is YOUR World Champion!"
Color Commentator | Caleb Foster
"For now."
Play by Play Commentator | Steele
"For always!!"
The peak of the song is reached and the arena begins to flash almost as though an electrical surge flows through the arena. "F8" bleeds into "Rise Cover" by State of MINE and a blue spot light shines on the stage as it is covered with smoke/mist. A moment passes and into the spotlight stands Zolton facing away from the ring. His head lowered, hair silhouetting his face. The chorus flows from "Rise Cover" and he turns, head still lowered and looking in the direction of the World Championship held firmly in his hand by his side. Slowly he raises the Championship high above his head and looks out over the crowd with great disdain across his face. The fans boo even heavier as he walks down the ramp way ignoring the crowd up against the entrance ramp.
Play by Play Commentator | Steele
"What great disrespect for the World Champion Foster!! These morons should be grateful that he’s even gracing us with his presence!"
Color Commentator | Caleb Foster
"Freedom of speech Jacob."
Mist covers the ring now as he climbs the steps. He enters the ring as it fills with blue lighting. He and Jonny stand on either side of the table staring holes into one another. The music fades out as the arena lights rise into normalcy.
Color Commentator | Caleb Foster
"You can cut the tension here with a knife Jacob!"
Both men continue to just glare at each other. Jonny with a look of determination and focus, Zolton with a look of disdain and confidence – borderline cockiness. The fans start chanting JON-NY! JON-NY! JON-NY! JON-NY! Jonny breaks the stare to look out at the crowd then back to the stare down between himself and Zolton, pointing out towards the fans which gets a huge pop from them. Zolton just gives a dismissive grin and inaudibly says “You think they’re going to help you?!” and laughs at the thought. He slowly reaches down to the table and picks up a microphone to speak with Cedrone.
"MAN OF CHAOS" || ZOLTON:
"You all think this ruckus and carrying on will help this moron take me down and take this?"
He holds the World Championship in the air.
"MAN OF CHAOS" || ZOLTON:
"You're all sorely mistaken, especially you."
He returns his stare to the challenger. Then stands over him and the table.
"MAN OF CHAOS" || ZOLTON:
"These people are meaningless. What really matters is what you have in you. What will they do when I have you laid out, blood pouring from your skull and you can only move your fingers trying to ask me for mercy? Sign the contract and meet your demise Cedrone. You and these people are cut from the same mediocre cloth. Pathetic and mouth breathing parasites. I'll be more than happy to send you to the same place your mistress is currently. Sign. The. Paper."
Zolton taps the table with aggression with his right index finger. Jonny looks down at Zolton’s index finger then up to the crowd who are booing heavily. He smiles and picks up the microphone on his side of the table and paces the length of the table and gives a chuckle.
King of Sexy | Jonny Cedrone
"You don’t get it do you? You just don’t get it! You’re so full of yourself that you can’t be bothered to see the world around you."
Jonny points out towards the crowd.
King of Sexy | Jonny Cedrone
"These people... all of these people and all of the people around the world...every one of them make me who I am! Every one of them support me through thick and thin! Every one of them are my lifeline and are the reason why I do what I do!"
Zolton rolls his eyes in disgust then Cedrone looks at the World Championship that sits proudly on top of the table.
King of Sexy | Jonny Cedrone
"And THAT is the reason I do what I do!"
The fans give a loud pop.
King of Sexy | Jonny Cedrone
"That very Championship is the be-all end-all in this great sport! It’s the very reason why anyone gets into this business! When you’re holding that Championship, you know and the rest of the world knows that you are the absolute best this business has to offer and they can’t take any of that away from you…"
Zolton interrupts Cedrone.
"MAN OF CHAOS" || ZOLTON:
"Oh I see these moronic people here. Yes that very belt is the reason why amateurs like yourself think they have what it takes. This is the end of your line Cedrone. You can believe that they're your lifeline. Basically the essence of being. But reality is it will all be up to you. You alone. They will be crying tears as I slaughter you. Taunting them with the very thing that they wish you had. Intelligence."
Zolton grabs the belt and presses it to Jonny's forehead. Lindy moves as though to possibly break this possible violent encounter up.
"MAN OF CHAOS" || ZOLTON:
"This championship is all that matters to me between these four ropes. You're just a concept to me. A statistic to add to the many I've already accomplished. Your life is nothing. If you die. No Sweat off my ball sack. Sign. The. Fucking. Contract. Boy!"
Z grabs the leather bound contract and tosses it at Cedrone as he steps back. Jonny looks down at the contract then up at Zolton then out to the fans. After a pregnant pause, Jonny takes the pen attached to the leather binding and signs his name on the dotted line to a chorus of cheers from the fans. Jonny slams the pen down onto the contract and aggressively slides it over to Zolton who laughs dismissively again. Z looks out to the sea of people with a crooked and pure evil grin. He slowly grabs the pen. Looking at Jonny's signature. Zolton signs his name largely covering the entire bottom half of the page. Jonny's can still be seen but barely.
"MAN OF CHAOS" || ZOLTON:
"You'll be at your own funeral, Cedrone."
Z sits back in the chair and holds the belt closely. Lindy LeVeaux picks up the contract and makes the declaration.
Dystopia Governor | Lindy Leveaux
"Well ladies and gentlemen, there you have it! It’s official! Jonny Cedrone is challenging Zolton for the World Heavyweight Championship in the main event of DreamState!!"
The fans give a huge pop! Cedrone takes his microphone and speaks one more time.
King of Sexy | Jonny Cedrone
"Ya know, you’ve been talkin’ a lot about Renee and you’ve been bragging about how you completely annihilated her and all that, and how you’re going to do to me what you did to her…but you’re leaving out a very important detail, and that’s the why you did what you did and brag about it."
Zolton looks on a little confused.
King of Sexy | Jonny Cedrone
"And that’s the fact that in order for you to win a match, you have to decimate someone beforehand."
There is some cheering from the fans.
King of Sexy | Jonny Cedrone
"You have to beat someone down to raise your chances of winning your matches because if you hadn’t given Renee that beat down before your match at Silence...you know with every fiber of your being…"
Jonny stands up and leans across the table.
King of Sexy | Jonny Cedrone
"...that I would be signing this contract to face her at DreamState and not you!"
Some ooh's and cheers from the fans.
King of Sexy | Jonny Cedrone
"Instead, I get to beat you for that Championship and make it mean even more Mr. Zolton! And it’ll be an honor to do so."
Zolton grins yet another dismissive grin and out of nowhere smashes Cedrone upside his head with the World Championship knocking him back down into his chair! The fans erupt in boos as Lindy makes her exit from the ring.
Play by Play Commentator | Steele
"Cedrone deserved that shot! That’s the closest he’ll ever get to that Championship Foster!!"
Color Commentator | Foster
"Lindy Leveaux needs to get this whole thing under control before someone gets hurt!"
Play by Play Commentator | Steele
"And that someone is going to be your hero, Cedrone! Hit him again Z!!"
Zolton flips the table onto Cedrone as he stands up, knocking Cedrone over in his chair onto the mat. From up the rampway Lindy Leveaux makes the following announcement.
Dystopia Governor | Lindy Leveaux
"Hey! HEY! YOU TWO WANT TO GO AT IT SO BAD?! FINE!! LET’S MAKE THIS AN OFFICIAL MATCH THEN! NON-TITLE OF COURSE, WE WOULDN’T WANT TO GIVE THAT MATCH AWAY FOR FREE NOW WOULD WE?!"
The fans are going nuts with all of the excitement!
Dystopia Governor | Lindy Leveaux
"GET ME A DAMN REFEREE OUT THERE IN THAT RING AT ONCE!!"
In the meantime Zolton takes this opportunity to continue the beat down on Jonny Cedrone.

ZOLTON (WC)

The onslaught that Zolton unleashes upon Jonny Cedrone, is intense to say the least. Each explosive strike, resounding through the arena like a massive clap of thunder. The audience gazes on in horror, silenced by the sights befalling them. It is at this current juncture, Zolton permits his cocksure attitude to get the best of him and he directs his focus out, towards the audience with a sadistic smirk, accenting his face.
Mocking the fans, by outstretching his arm forward at Cedrone, sprawled out on the canvas and then, raising both his arms up, promptly waving his hands inward, as if the say... come and get some, if you don't approve of my actions! Zolton's arrogance goes that far and deep, he's actually challenging the fans now! This act is met by a near deafening, barrage of boos. Which only inspires a wicked cackle, to emit from, Zolton's cracked grin.
From this point, he returns his focus to Jonny and is immediately greeted by a Jumping High Knee, to the face! Zolton stumbles backwards and Jonny takes this opportunity to topple the unbalanced man, with a Leg Sweep and down goes Zolton! Towering over Zolton, now leveled to the mat, Cedrone reaches down and yanks him up, by his beard. Delivering a drumfire of headbutts, whilst still clinging onto Zolton's chin hairs, busting his nose wide open.
Before ending the brutal cycle of agony with a monumental, Gorilla Press Slam! The fans are on their feet and bellowing like beasts in the wild! Jonny simply acknowledges the crowd with a little smile and a shrug, like he's saying... it had to be done and it is very evident, the fans agree. Considering the continuous outpour of screams and a chant of "Jon-ny! Jon-ny! Jon-ny!" beginning to grow within the audience.
This is a big enough distraction, to allow Zolton the leeway, to gradually rise to his feet and regain his bearings. Shaking away the cobwebs, Zolton takes Cedrone down with a Standing Big Boot, to the chest. Jonny crashes to the canvas and rolls, as Zolton marches militantly over to him. Grabbing him up by the back of the neck, Zolton yanks Jonny to his feet and performs a Vertical Suplex. Cedrone slams into the canvas and it is the slam that's heard 'round the frickin' world!
The crowd gasps in shock and understandable awe. As Jonny cradles his skull and churns on the canvas in sheer agony. A torment that merely makes Zolton smile, before he starts to maniacally laugh, like he's auditioning for the role of the Joker! Looking just as insane too, with drying, caked on blood in his facial hair and massive amounts of sweat, pouring down his face. Eyes bulging out of his head.
That's when Jonny Cedrone, springs to his feet and charges towards Zolton, hitting him with a tremendous Spear. Zolton's back smashes against the ring post, he crumples forward a tad and Jonny, just starts wailing on him, with multiple punches and knees to the ribs and gut. Hitherto executing a marvelous, Ace in the Hole (Diamond Cutter)! It does not end there. There's been a fire lit inside Jonny''s eyes and he reaches out and grabs the ring bell from the official bell ringer, standing on the outside of the ring, instantly startled by this act.
After which, Cedrone begins pounding Zolton in the head with the bell, over and over again as Zolton, suffers the consequences. The ref witnesses this and signals the match is over and Zolton has won, by disqualification. It takes three officials, to remove the bell from Cedrone and get him off of Zolton, who is now laying, motionless but breathing, in a pool of his own blood. The audience is stunned by Jonny's deeds, it was almost like something snapped inside of him and he lost total control. Almost as if Zolton, brought out the ugly from deep within the pretty package that is... Jonny Cedrone.
WINNER:
ZOLTON
By DQ as Jonny snaps, contract signed for DreamState WWH Championship match.
Fans pick up their jaws off the floor after an intense brooding feud between the WWH Champion and War of Attrition number one contender explodes with their hero Jonny losing control. The lights dim, people filing toward exits believing that ended the show after the Main Event contract signing. Ring hands empty out with the wrestlers headed to the back. Suddenly the audio system comes back on.
"T... K..."
People stop in their tracks, the tron reveals a video as fans turn back around, eyes quivering with a pop reveal.
The tron transitions to a winding running view works through the halls of Dystopia backstage. Hallway after hallway feeds the immense anticipation of where the journey will end. Flying by wrestlers and stage people who jump out of the way. Eventually reaching the parking lot while passing by the giant show buses with pictures of Jonny and Z on the side. Finally the shot steadies on the side of a silver BMW coupe. It opens as XWF Legend Colton Kato's familiar boots are seen, the shot panning up slowly to his mocking expression. He walks the path the camera followed back to the ring as fans go ape shit after not seeing him in 6 years on any wrestling Network.
