We go backstage where Britney Anders and the Pride champion, Kendrick Kross are sitting together in catering. Britney holds up a miniature cupcake, smiling.
BRITNEY ANDERS: This thing is so cute I'm not even sure if I want to eat it.
Kendrick just laughs as he watches Britney lick the icing from it. Kendrick then snatches it from her hand and pops it into his mouth. Britney looks appalled.
BRITNEY ANDERS: Hey! That was my cupcake!
KENDRICK KROSS: You said you didn't want to eat it, I was just looking out for you. Besides, lets get you focused on Hollywood Honors later. You won the inaugural Cup and I know you can win this second one, and take home that Hollywood Honors championship. It looks so good about that waist of yours.
Britney forgets how upset she was about the cupcake and reaches over the table, taking Kendrick's hand in hers.
BRITNEY ANDERS: I told Anaquin and EVERYONE else that this is MY EVENT. They should just rename it the Britney Anders cup, I mean, come on, put my face on the trophy and watch how popular it gets. It could even be bigger than the Super Series!
Kendrick tries to hold in his laugh but can't as it slowly creeps out.
KENDRICK KROSS: Super Series eh? Something new that you invented, love? I mean, it makes sense, Super Series not sure it's a real thing though!
Kendrick slowly tries to hold back his laugh again though it slowly creeps out once more.
KENDRICK KROSS: That was a good cupcake by the way! Thanks for that.
Kendrick just smiles at Britney and lets out a wink. He slowly is able to hold back a small chuckle as he grabs her hand in return and looks into her eyes.
KENDRICK KROSS: They can doubt you all they want my love, you're winning that cup. I agree though, it should be named after you, you did win the first one after all and were the first Hollywood Honors Champion. If it was renamed after you it would get very popular.
BRITNEY ANDERS: Everything about me is popular, I thought that much was obvious.
KENDRICK KROSS: It truly is obvious, everything about you is popular.
'The Doll' of California Wrestling smiles and then looks at some of the crew who walk by. She rolls her eyes and pouts to Kendrick.
BRITNEY ANDERS: They have boxes and important things they are carrying around. How come nobody brings us anything? I mean you have that championship that you carry everywhere, but I feel naked.
Kendrick's eyes shoot open as he puts a hand over his mouth, again fighting the urge to laugh.
BRITNEY ANDERS: Seriously! Why can't someone deliver us a package?
It's almost as if Britney is speaking it into existence as a crew members walks up and looks at the two of them. He holds out a perfectly wrapped box towards Kendrick.
CREW MEMBER: Mister Kross? I was told to hand deliver this to you, with care.
Britney claps quickly and smiles ear to ear.
BRITNEY ANDERS: Okay now go!
She hurries the crew member away and looks at Kendrick.
BRITNEY ANDERS: OMG, what do you think it is?
The mention of her and naked in the same sentence caused a pause with Kendrick. As he took a deep breath after fighting back the urge to laugh.
KENDRICK KROSS: Well would you look at that? You wanted a package delivered and here it is. We got a package delivered to us, love!
Kendrick takes the package that the crew member gave them. He looks at it then looks at Britney who is ecstatic about the package.
KENDRICK KROSS: Maybe a personally decorated title belt since I am the King which makes you the queen of CW. Would you like to open it?
Kendrick offers the package to Britney first before he opens it. Britney shakes her head, pointing at Kendrick.
BRITNEY ANDERS: I'm going to let the King open this one, but I want to be the first one to get a peek of it. What is it!?
Anders can hardly contain her excitement as she balls her fist up and knocks on the table three times as she awaits Kendrick to reveal what the package contains inside.
KENDRICK KROSS: If you're certain!
Kendrick smiles at how excited she is for the package. He unwraps it and opens the box. He shows the contents of the package to Britney. Before she can react however Kendrick smells it and vomits onto the floor in front of his chair and then drops the package on the floor. Britney begins gagging and fighting the urge to vomit as well as crew members rush over to check on the 'IT' couple of California Wrestling, cutting the feed immediately.

We open to the sell out crowd in the CW Warehouse. They are going completely nuts as the smog clears out and the heavy metal plays. The drone flies around catching glimpses of various signs brought by the fans. Samantha Tolson-Anderson stands ringside applauding with the wild CW Crowd!
CW! CW! CW!
#YEAHMELODY!
KINGDOM OF KROSS
LIVING BLOW UP DOLL!
HERO HIGHSPOT!
NIGEL 4 C.A.O.!
KELSI MINX: Welcome ladies and gentlemen to a very special Walk of Fame 3, we are proud to showcase the second annual, Hollywood Honors Cup!! The Hollywood Honors Championship will defended in every round, eight competitors will compete and by the end of the night we may very well, have a brand new champion!
NIGEL ASTIN: I am beyond proud. I am beyond a lot right now. I am still trying to believe tonight we will witness the debut of Eddy Poe.
KELSI MINX: Oh, get over it. Your two favorite stars in CW have bitten off more than they can chew.
NIGEL ASTIN: Not even the situation Minx. This is Kross' Kingdom, and no one... I mean absolutely no one, will take the Pride championship away from Kendrick Kross. His record in CW, alone, is flawless. What Eddy Poe did was distasteful and not at all what we should be doing in professional wrestling. It sets a bad example.
KELSI MINX: Okay, so sabotaging the show because you didn't get your way is the example we want to be setting? Cheating at all costs is what we should be doing in professional wrestling?
NIGEL ASTIN: It's strategy if you don't get caught.
KELSI MINX: Shut up Nigel, you sound stupid.
NIGEL ASTIN: I actually have someone who believes I should be in Jack Callahan's position, thank you very much.
KELSI MINX: Oh boy, here we go. Anyways, tonight we will see the in-ring return of Adi Gold when she teams with the self procalaimed King of CW, Kendrick Kross.
NIGEL ASTIN: He is the king! Equinox even vouched online.
KELSI MINX: I've heard enough of that. Do you hear that? Do you hear the fans? It's time to kick off the Hollywood Honors Cup!
The boos are heavy as The Ravil Clan stride to ringside.
QUARTER FINALS: HOLLYWOOD HONORS CUP Britney Anders -vs- Anatoly Ravil
In a match heavily fueled by rest holds, technical moves, and Britney Anders doing her usual tactics. In the beginning she's backed into the corner and complains Anatoly is pulling her hair to get separation. The fans hate her for it and she does is adjust her knee pad before sprinting across the ring and hitting Andrei Ravil with a baseball slide! Anton steps onto the ring apron immediately and Lisa Lee does her best to keep him from entering the ring. Meanwhile Britney hits Anatoly with a low blow and folows it up with a high imapct ddt! Britney makes a cover,
....
.....
......
Lisa is steal distracted by the Ravil Clan trying to enter the ring. Britney pulls Lisa away and the Ravil Clan jump off the ring apron. Andrei runs around the ring and pulls Anatoly out of the ring while Lisa and Britney argue in the center of the ring. The Ravil Clan revive their brother before allowing him back in the ring and around the same time Britney Anders and Lisa end their argument.
We push forward and Anatoly Ravil catches Britney mid stride during an irish whip and slams her with a textbook spinebuster! Ravil makes the cover,
...1!... ....2...!
...KICKOUT!...
Ravil and Anders battle on their feet with Ravil getting the upperhand and using a drop toe hold to bring Anders down before locking her in a single leg boston crab! Anders squirms in pain while fighting to reach the ring ropes.
KELSI MINX: Anders is favoring her knee, she could have an injury.
NIGEL ASTIN: Ravil may have created an opening.
Anders makes it to her feetand Ravil goes straight for the knee with a cut block. Britney drops down in pain, favoring her knee. Anatoly wastes no time and goes for a figure 4 leg lock, but Britney kicks him and he stumbles away after releasing her from his grip.
We move forward in the action and Anatoly Ravil is just hammering Anders with knife edge chops in the corner. Ravil uses an Irish Whip to sling Britney out of the ring ropes. Brit ducks under the clothesline and in return attempts a kick to the midsection but Ravil catches her foot and Britney responds with an enziguri! Ravil crashes down to the canvas immediately!
KELSI MINX: Holy hell I think he's out cold!
NIGEL ASTIN: Wow.
Britney favors her ankle with the Ravil Clan on the outside shouting to Anatoly who is not moving.
NIGEL ASTIN: Did she hurt her ankle?
KELSI MINX: It's Britney, you can never be too sure.
Britney rolls Anatoly onto his back and makes the cover,
...1!...
...2!...
...3!...
DING! DING! DING!
WINNER VIA PIN FALL: BRITNEY ANDERS! (22 Minutes and 04 Seconds)
Britney leaves the ring after a hard fought contest and the Ravil Clan help their brother to the back.
NIGEL ASTIN: What an exciting opening contest!
KELSI MINX: Well, Britney advances to the semi-finals, but who will she compete against?!
NIGEL ASTIN: Good question, we will find out later this evening. Let's let the Cup continue!
"White Rabbit" by Jefferson Airplane blasts over the arenas PA system and the fans erupt into boos as Mischa Killings makes her way to ringside.
QUARTER FINALS: HOLLYWOOD HONORS CUP Gabriel McAlister -vs- Mischa Killings
We begin with Mischa Killings of the FEMPIRE putting up one hell of a fight agaisnt a very talent newcomer in Gabriel McAlister! Gabiel's strength and unorthodox movesets proves to be too much for Mischa after he reverses her kill strike signature move and instead resorts to using the LAST BREATH! to finish her off.
WINNER BY PINFALL: GABRIEL MCALISTER (13 Minuts and 39 Seconds)
= = = = = = = = = = =
The screams of CW's resident Doll, Britney Anders, can be heard as she's in a panic, walking down the hallways backstage on the hunt for someone, or something.
BRITNEY ANDERS: JACK! Has anyone seen Jack Callahan?
Britney stops one of the tech guys and grabs him by the collar of his shirt, staring at him with widened eyes and a look you would never want to see from her on her face.
BRITNEY ANDERS: You! Where is Jack Callahan? I know you know where he is!
TECH GUY: No, I really don't. I was just walking to production to make sure everything was running smoothly for the show. It seems like your boyfriend's vomit might have landed on a few of the cables and...
BRITNEY ANDERS: Oh my God you're no help! Just...GO!
Britney lets go of the tech guy, pushing him into the wall as she continues walking down the hall, shouting 'JACK, JACK, JACK!!!' continuously. Finally, there's a tap on her shoulder as a voice is cleared off camera behind her. Britney spins around, already shouting.
BRITNEY ANDERS: Have you seen Ja-
She stops mid sentence as the camera pans back to show Jack Callahan standing in front of Britney with an amused look on his face.
BRITNEY ANDERS: OMG, there you are Jack. I was looking all over for you!
JACK CALLAHAN: It's actually Mr.Callahan, but go ahead, Miss Anders. What do I owe the pleasure of this meeting to?
BRITNEY ANDERS: Well I'm sure you saw what happened with Kendrick, right? He threw up and he's not doing well at all. He's shivering and sweating and still getting sick and...unfortunately it's of my opinion that he shouldn't be competing tonight. It wouldn't be safe for your Pride champion to wrestle. Sorry.
Jack shakes his head, his expression remaining the same as it was before Britney dropped the bombshell on him.
JACK CALLAHAN: Actually, it's me who should probably apologize. I know Mr.Kross had an episode earlier and got sick, but he's a professional, an athlete, and unfortunately for him, you aren't a doctor so your opinion on his medical status is of no concern to me if I'm being brutally honest.
Britney's face turns red as her mouth nearly drops at Callahan's refusal to give Kendrick the night off.
JACK CALLAHAN: Tell him I hope he feels better though, will you?
BRITNEY ANDERS: No, you don't understand. He's currently throwing up his guts in his locker room. He's in no way shape or form able to wrestle, so it looks like you really have no choice.
Britney places both hands on her hips as a smirk spreads over her face, but Callahan just crosses his arms.
JACK CALLAHAN: I'm not sure if you realize this Miss Anders, but you don't run things around here. I do. And since I'm in control, I will remind you, and you can remind Kendrick that he's contractually obligated to compete tonight. Now, I have some business to attend to if you don't mind.
BRITNEY ANDERS: But! Wait!
Britney grabs Jack's arm as his phone rings. He laughs and shrugs her off, answering his phone and acting as if Britney isn't right behind him pouting and stomping her feet.
The bell sounds and the Hollywood Honors Championship match begins. The match we've all been waiting for starts off with Jazmin Davis catching Adams mid stride and using a snap powerslam, ala Randy Orton, in the opening moments.
NIGEL ASTIN: That'll make Adams slow down for sure.
KELSI MINX: I can see her thinking before making her move the next time.
Davis follows the champion into the cornr and delivers the boots to the Universal Superstar before delivering a stiff forearm and following that up with a snapmare! With dams seated, Davis flips forward, grabbing the back of Adams' head and performing a front flip neck crank! Davis makes a quick cover but only gets a count of one before both women hop back to their feet and exchange blows once again. Davis gets the better of the two and gains some momentum before being tossed into the air for a pop up powerbomb. At the last second, Davis performs a hurricanrana on the champion much to the surprise of everyone. The crowd pops when Davis hooks the leg. Lisa Lee drops down to make the cover,
...1!...
...2!...
...KICKOUT!...
Davis immediately rises to her feet and hits the champion with a basement dropkick as soon as she sits up. With Adams down, Davis climbs to the top rope.
NIGEL ASTIN: Here comes some high risk from the 2nd generation star.
Jazmin leaps from the top rope and at the lest second Anaquin rolls away and Davis hits the canvas hard.
KELSI MINX: Ouch! That was an iffy landing.
Davis miscalculates the elbow drop and is visibly regretting it. Anaquin Adams wastes no time pulling Davis to her feet only to bring her back down via a flatliner! Anaquin Adams makes the cover,
...1!... ...2!... ...KICKOUT!...
Davis and Adams make it to their feet at the same time and Adams connects with a dropkick! The fans get behind Davis as she keeps her offensive momentum on her side and sends Adams flying into the ring cables via an irish whip. The defending champion returns with more momentum and ducks under the clothesline and locks Davis into an abdominal stretch.
KELSI MINX: I believe Adams wants to slow the pace of this match up a bit.
NIGEL ASTIN: It could be in her best interest.
Davis fights to freedom and slams Adams with a hip toss. Davis charges forward and clotheslines Adams out of the ring before stepping outside and continuing to fight. Davis ignores the officials count and continues to batter the champion with strikes.
We move forward in the contest and the competitors are back in the ring and Jazmin Davis connect with the Bebop!
KELSI MINX: We may have a new champion.
Before Davis can go for a cover the fans roar with boos for the arrival of Brady Vega and Rex Cassidy. Vega is met by Davis with a forearm to the jaw and it forces him to fall from the ring apron. Before Cassidy can climb onto the ring rope Davis flies out and connects with a suicide dive! Mischa Killings and Troy Maddox sprint to ringside and pick up the remains of Foreign Terrortory. Jazmin Davis steps back into the ring and attempts a backstabber but Adams hangs onto the ring cables and Davis smacks the canvas hard. The champion heads to the top rope and connects with HELL'S HAMMER!!! Adams makes the cover,
BRITNEY ANDERS: OMG, open the door for him! Can't you see he's sick?
'The Living Doll' shouts at the UBER driver in the back parking lot as the young man now opens the back door of the vehicle as Britney is guiding Kendrick Kross towards the car. Kendrick is wrapped in a green blanket with his head low, and his skin a clammy pale color.
BRITNEY ANDERS: It's okay, Kendry, we're going to get you some help.
Jack Callahan walks out of the back exit doors and jogs over to the car as Britney helps Kendrick sit down in the back seat.
JACK CALLAHAN: Whoa, whoa, what's going on here?
BRITNEY ANDERS: I told you earlier, Kendry can't compete tonight. As you can tell by looking at him, he's very under the weather. I'm sending him to the ER so that he can be properly evaluated since your staff here is kind of sketchy if I'm being honest.
Britney then points her finger at Jack, raising her voice.
BRITNEY ANDERS: This is all your fault anyway! If that stupid package wasn't delivered to us by your crew people, then Kendry wouldn't be sick right now and this wouldn't be happening. So, before you get on your high horse and start telling me how you're the boss, think about the big L world, okay?
Jack Callahan raises an eyebrow.
BRITNEY ANDERS: Yes, the big l word, as in lawsuit. Because if you force Kendrick to wrestle tonight, you will be hearing from my lawyers, are we clear?
Jack pauses for a moment, appearing to be in deep thought.
JACK CALLAHAN: You know, you're right.
BRITNEY ANDERS: I am? I mean, duh, I AM!
JACK CALLAHAN: I can see Kendrick doesn't look like he's doing too well, so yeah, send him to the ER and get him checked out.
BRITNEY ANDERS: Okay, will do! See ya!
JACK CALLAHAN: Not so fast, Miss Anders. You see, I still need a replacement for that huge main event later. It's Adi's big return to the company and I couldn't possibly send her out there to compete against the likes of Eddy and Maki alone.
Britney looks at him with confusion on her face.
BRITNEY ANDERS:Okay? Then do your job and go find her another partner.
JACK CALLAHAN: I don't have to, I'm looking right at her partner.
Jack smirks and points at Britney. Anders looks back at Kendrick in the back of the car before turning back to Jack.
BRITNEY ANDERS: That isn't fair! I might have to wrestle four times already tonight!
JACK CALLAHAN: Then I guess it's a good thing you chose to break our code of silence on pay and tell the world how you are the highest paid talent on the roster, right? Well tonight you're going to earn every dollar of that deal. Good luck.
Jack laughs as he walks back towards the building with Britney shouting at him again, with Callahan again ignoring her. Britney looks back into the car and begins shouting at Kendrick as the cameras fade away.
= = = = = = = = = = =
The cameras move backstage where we see the Princess of the Woods Dynasty, Gemma Woods standing outside of her locker room.
GEMMA WOODS: Tonight is very special to me. I was fortunate enough to catch the eyes of management here to earn the right to replace Alyza Ashe in the first round of the second annual Hollywood Honors Cup, and I couldn't ask for a better opponent than Equinox. This is a man who has more than earned his stripes not only in CW, but around the world. There aren't many athletes like him, and I know that I have my work cut out for me tonight, but you know what?
She flashes a smile.
GEMMA WOODS: I wouldn't have it any other way.
Gemma inhales a deep breath and adjusts the headband on her head.
GEMMA WOODS: My strategy tonight is simple, go out there, and use the YEARS of training I've endured to out wrestle him. I know he's the favorite in our match, but there's always fight in an underdog, and I think I might be the biggest underdog in this entire tournament. Make no mistakes, while I'm not favored to win, I didn't come here to lose. Respect aside, I want that victory and to advance to the next round just as much as Equinox. I want to do my lineage and family name proud tonight, and if I walk out of here with gold around my waist? That's icing on the cake.
Gemma looks over her shoulder at her nameplate on the door before nodding with a smile on her face.
GEMMA WOODS: Let's talk Hollywood HONORS, and I'd like to focus on HONORS. It's an HONOR to be here tonight, competing in front of some of the most passionate wrestling fans in the world. It's an HONOR to be here on behalf of my family, and Equinox it's an HONOR to compete against you in that ring.
Gemma pauses.
GEMMA WOODS: The Woods Wrestling Academy trainees are here tonight, some of my friends in the business are here, and I feel like I have an overwhelming support system. I want to thank everyone for standing behind me. All that's left to do is to go out there and fight. So let's do this, Nox.
Gemma gives a thumbs up and an infectious smile to the camera before heading towards ringside.
= = = = = = = = = = =
QUARTER FINALS: HOLLYWOOD HONORS CUP Gemma Woods -vs- Equinox
The match begins with the fans chanting for both. Despite being new, Gemma has garnered a fanbase through her positive attitude on social media and the fans are showing her love, as they are the fan favorite Equinox. Equinox gets the early advantage by taking Gemma down via a headlock and holding her there in an attempt to wear down the 'Princess of the Woods Dynasty'. Equinox surprises everyone, including Gemma, as he quickly stands to his feet with her and hit a suplex variation that folds Gemma up.
Woods favors her neck from this point as Equinox continues the assault, hitting her with a pair of german suplexes next.
1...
...2...
KICKOUT!
Equinox would nod to his opponent for her tenacity, but would stay on the offensive for the next five minutes or so. His high profile style saw him hit numerous aerial attacks, all of which nearly put Gemma way, but she kept kicking out and coming back for more.
Gemma would fight back as the match continues on, using her own technical based style to hit a few quick arm drags and snap suplexes. A spinning discus forearm rocks Equinox in the jaw.
1... ..2
KICKOUT!
The hero of California Wrestling would kick out in the nick of time. Gemma would clap her hands together to get the crowd into it but would be leveled by a Pele kick as her focus was temporarily lost. Equinox would hit Purple Haze on his unsuspecting opponent next and he just knew he would be moving on to the next round.
1... .....2 ..... KICKOUT!
Gemma got her shoulder up at the last second and Equinox couldn't believe it. He would drag the rookie towards the corner and quickly scale to the top turnbuckle. He would leap off and land Dark Kingdom (Swanton Bomb) on Gemma, driving all of the air out of the multi generational wrestlers' body. A hook of the leg follows...
...1 2... ...3!
DING DING! DING!
WINNER BY PINFALL: Equinox (17 minutes and 45 seconds)
Equinox would celebrate after having his hand raised while Gemma was tended to by the referee. Equinox would eventually walk over and help the young lady to her feet, much to the delight of the fans. He would pat her on the back and tell her she's got next. Gemma would then drop down and roll out of the ring, holding her stomach as she exited ringside after her first round defeat, giving the spotlight to the winner, Equinox.

SEMI FINALS: HOLLYWOOD HONORS CUP Britney Anders -vs- Gabriel McAlister
The match begins and Britney Anders is as aggressive ever. She attacks Reena from behind during their entrance to the ring and from that moment on Britney and Gabriel have been having a battle many are not going to leave ringside before the finish. Britney drops Gabriel with a ddt befor making the cover,
...1!...
...2!...
...KICKOUT!
After the kickout, there is a momentum shift and Gabriel McAlister takes control of Britney after an irish whip reversal. Britney returns from the ring cables and is slammed by a one armed spinebuster! Reena cheers for her brother from the outside a Gabriel makes a pin attempt. Britney kicks out after a count of two.
Britney fights back, leaving Gabriel momentarily on his heels. Britney attempts a snap suplex but Gabriel prevents it from happening by standing his ground. Anders rakes hi's eyes with her hails instead before hitting him in the back with a dropkick. McAlister falls forward into the ring ropes and just hangs their, like someone waiting to be hit by the 619. Anders picks up momentum and Gabriel moves out of the way as the last second and Britney instead hits Reena who in the face with a dropkick as she flies between the ropes. She stands on the outside, surprised at first, but after realizing what she had done, Britney pretends as if it were planned.
NIGEL ASTIN: She's worth every penny!
KELSI MINX: You're insane! She didn't do anything.
Gabriel grabs Britney by the hair and begins pulling her up onto the ring apron. Britney fights back and hits McAlister in the face with a forearm before leaping onto the ring rope and executing a springboard shining wizard! McAlister hits the canva and Britney makes a lazy cover while wincing in pain and favoring her ankle.
KELSI MINX: What a kick!
NIGEL ASTIN: Britney might be hurt.
KELSI MINX: You still fall for that crap?!
Lisa Lee flies down to her stomach and counts,
...1!...
...2!..... ...... ....3!!!
DING! DING DING@
WINNER BY PINFALL: BRITNEY ANDERS (15 MINUTES and 57 SECONDS)
KELSI MINX: Wait is Britney actually hurting?
NIGEL ASTIN: Perhaps.
Britney struggles out of the ring and up the aisle refusing Lisa Lee's help.
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
KELSI MINX: She should be just fine. Britney is tough.
NIGEL ASTIN: This cannot be good either.
Cameras cut to the locker rooms and Melody Marshall is beat down and lying on her side in her ring gear and the show heads are spraying water on her. A note is left next to her, but the water has made the ink unreadable with smears. Medical staff rush in to check on her, they turn off the water before going through their procedures. Jack Callahan can be seen standing in the doorway trying to keep workers and other talent away from the area.
KELSI MINX: So, I am interested to know, who did it.
NIGEL ASTIN: Good question.
A loud scream is heard and Jack Callahan sprints down the hall to the sound of the noise. By the time he reaches the parking garage down the hall, the doors to a van are slammed shut and The Ravil Clan along with Anatoly Ravil pulls the sliding door open and we see Adi Gold beat up and bruised for a quick moment before they hop in, slam the doors shut and drive off. Callahan runs into frame as they speed away, his shoes squeaking along the pavement.
NIGEL ASTIN: What? Are the Ravil Clan responsible for the attack on Melody Marshall as well?
KELSI MINX: Where are they going with Adi Gold? What's to happen in our main even tonight?!
KELSI MINX: This one could steal the show tonight. Equinox had an impressive win over newcomer Gemma Woods earlier.
NIGEL ASTIN: And what about the champion, Anaquin Adams? She has already defended against Jazmin Davis and remember this is also a Hollywood Honors CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH!
The bell rings and the two wrestlers stare at each other across the ring. Neither want to make the first move.
NIGEL ASTIN: They know that any single mistake could cost them everything in this contest, so they are in a bit of a feeling each other out period.
Equinox and Anaquin finally meet in the center of the ring and Equinox is the first to strike, landing an open hand slap to the face of Adams which wakes the champion up quickly. Anaquin fires back an open handed strike of her own which rocks Equinox and stumbles him backwards. Equinox has no time to recover as Anaquin runs and takes him down with a swinging neckbreaker.
KELSI MINX: You have to love the intensity the champion brings to every match. Remember, she has been doubted, or questioned on social media by the FORMER Hollywood Honors champion, Britney Anders. She's proving tonight that not only is she the absolute pinnacle of this division, but that she deserves as much respect as anyone else here in California Wrestling.
NIGEL ASTIN: She did top the rankings as of the last update for a reason, but let's not bring Britney into this. She's an angel.
KELSI MINX: Oh look at that kickout by Equinox!
Nox kicks out at a two after Anaquin went for a pinfall attempt. Anaquin remains in control after dropping the High Spot Hero with a flatliner almost as soon as he made it to his feet. Adams bypasses the pin in favor of a somersault legdrop which connects and draws a major reaction from the fans. She hooks a leg.

KICKOUT!
The 'Universal Superstar' keeps a cool composure but it will be tested as Equinox grabs an ankle and trips her up. He then holds both legs and drops a legdrop of his own to the stomach and chest of the fallen champion. Equinox kicks up to his feet with energy as he runs off the ropes and hits a flipping front senton splash. The fans can't get enough as they cheer for the hero.
NIGEL ASTIN: Equinox could dethrone the champion here and head to the finals, Kelsi.
KELSI MINX: He's impressive, no doubt, but never count out the champion. She's still wearing that title after the first round for a reason.
Equinox waits for Anaquin to make it to her feet and as she does he kicks at her. She grabs his leg and smirks, but the challenger turns the tables on her as he leaps up and connects spot on with an enziguri kick to the side of her head! Anaquin crumbles to the mat as Equinox hooks a leg...
1...
.....2 .... .......
NEARFALL!
KELSI MINX: Can you believe that? How close was that?
NIGEL ASTIN: Too close for comfort if I'm Anaquin. I really think Equinox is going to pull this off! The champion looks tired!
It was true. Anaquin lays on the mat, doused in her own sweat after her second hard fought match of the night. Equinox was poised to pull off what some would call an upset as Anaquin found the strength to pull herself up off of the mat. She falls back down and slides over to a corner. Equinox's eyes light up as he runs and hits The Anarchy Effect to Anaquin who falls away from the corner after. Equinox looks out at the crowd before looking at Anaquin who is down near the corner.
NIGEL ASTIN: You know what's coming next! He's looking to hit Anaquin with the same move that sent Gemma Woods home earlier.
Equinox hurries to the top and looks out at the crowd. He leaps off, looking for Dark Kingdom but Anaquin gets her knees up, driving them into the back of the challenger, causing him to writhe in pain. It's not Anaquin's turn to head to the top turnbuckle. Equinox is down and Anaquin can taste victory.
KELSI MINX: She's looking for it! Look how fast she's moving!
Anaquin quickly jumps off the top and connects with Hell's Hammer! She hooks the leg.
1 ....2 ... .....3!
DING DING DING!
WINNER BY PINFALL: Anaquin Adams
(24 minutes and 54 seconds.)
Anaquin is exhausted as she makes it to a knee. The referee hands her the Hollywood Honors championship and raises her right arm as she looks down at Equinox who put on a match to be proud of.
KELSI MINX: This match could have gone either way, but in the end, add another successful championship defense to Anaquin's record, Nigel.
NIGEL ASTIN: I truly thought this was Equinox's moment, but he has nothing to be ashamed of. He'll have another opportunity soon enough, but the big question is, with one more ahead of her, can Anaquin Adams survive the night and hold on to that championship?

Kendrick is seen entering the arena from the back with a paper in his hand. He passes a few of the maintenance workers but just ignores them, even when a few of them try to talk to him. He looks at Judy though who he can’t avoid. She stops right in front of him and gets in the way of Kendrick proceeding to where he was headed.
Judy: Kendrick, before you go anywhere I want to ask you a few questions.
Kendrick just rolls his eyes and looks at Judy.
Kendrick: What do you want, Judy?
Judy: You could be a bit nicer, Kendrick. Just wondering where you’ve been? We saw you leave and saw Brit help you into an UBER.
Kendrick: Did you not hear what she said?! That package made me sick! I had to go to the Emergency Room! I’m going to make sure that CW will pay for it! I’ll sue their asses if I have to!
Judy just looks at Kendrick and laughs a bit.
Kendrick: Quit your damn laughing! I’m serious here, Judy. Jack is going to hear it to! That’s where I’m headed. Now get out of my way!
Kendrick just pushes Judy out of the way and begins to stomp his way to the office of Jack Callahan. A few people try to stop him but he just pushes them to the side, a few of them landing on tables and other objects. Kendrick, not knocking, just opens the door to the office of Jack Callahan.
Jack: Kendrick, you ever hear of knocking? You can’t just come barging into my office like this. I won’t have it.
Kendrick: What are you going to do, Jack? Tell me. That’s right, nothing. You need me, besides I’m here for a damn good reason. I had to go to the ER because of that package, I can’t compete tonight.
Jack: Yeah? Says who? You look like you’re in perfect health to me, Kendrick. Do you even have anything to say that you aren’t able to compete?
Kendrick: In fact, Jack I do.
Jack: It’s Mr. Callahan Kendrick.
Kendrick just laughs and looks at Jack shaking his head and adjusts the Pride Championship resting on his shoulder.
Kendrick: No, Jack. It isn’t Mr. Callahan. I’ll be damned if I call you that, and here is the proof.
Kendrick hands Jack the Drs. Note to Jack who lets a smile cross his face, before laughing.
Jack: Really? This is your proof Kendrick? A fake Drs. note? What, afraid to compete in the match tonight, Kendrick?
Kendrick: That isn’t fake, Jack! It’s a real Drs. note so I can’t compete!
Jack: Kendrick, I’ve seen Drs. notes and it’s obvious that this one is fake. But I’ll tell you what. You want to give me this fake Drs. note fine I’ll accept it. But you’ll be stripped of that title if you don’t wrestle tonight.
Kendrick: You can’t do that, Jack! That’s not fake!
Jack: Yes, I can do it, Kendrick. I will do it and that’s not all I will do though. You won’t just be stripped of the title but you won’t get a rematch for it. You won’t even get a shot at any title, I’ll guarantee you that.
Kendrick looks Jack straight in the eyes as his face slowly becomes red.
Kendrick: Whatever, Jack. I’ll compete even with me being sick. I’ll be making sure my lawyers hear of this though!
Kendrick turns around and storms out of the office and slams the door behind him.

KELSI MINX: Kendrick Kross is willing to compete against Eddy Poe and Maki alone?!! Seriously?!
NIGEL ASTIN: He is a fighting champion.
KELSI MINX: Right.
NIGEL ASTIN: I don't know anybody else who would take on two demons!
KELSI MINX: Up next we've got---
Linkin Park plays over the speakers and Jack Callahan makes his way down the aisle with the CW Heritage Championship and a microphone in his hand.
JACK CALLAHAN: Ladies and gentlemen we promised you a main event tonight so a main event you will still receive in the form of the Hollywood Honors Cup Finals match featuring Britney Anders and Anaquin Adams. We will not force Kendrick Kross to compete, due to illness and well, clearly the Ravil Clan is owed money by a few people on the roster from what I can see, anyhow. And since we can't give you all that blockbuster event you want and needed tonight, we will keep the show good and entertaining, and at our next event, if you purchase tickets from the front desk show tickets from tonight's event and you can get your admission tickets for half the price to attend Horror in the Hills!
And speaking of Horror in the Hills, I've got a few ideas in mind that were just cleared by the man in charge, Ethan Roerich himself, and now that the Heritage championship has been vacated, we will watch a few of CW's new and old stars compete in an Elimination Chamber to crown our new CW Heritage Champion!
KELSI MINX: Oh wow this is huge news!!!!!!
NIGEL ASTIN: These are all my booking ideas. I hate this guy.
KELSI MINX: I don't think that's true Nigel.
JACK CALLAHAN: Now, our participants will be none other than, Anatoly Ravil, he clearly wants to get involved in some action this evening, Equinox, Mischa Killings, Eddy Poe, our newly acquired talent, Samantha Anderson-Tolson...
The crowd erupts at this news! She stands up with a smile and thanks Callahan from ringside. The cheers are cut short as a familiar song begins to play and an even more familiar face shows itself from behind the curtain.
NIGEL ASTIN: IS THIS A JOKE?!!
KELSI MINX: IT'S MAX DANGERR!!!! Britney just shit a brick and we all know it.
NIGEL ASTIN: This is surreal!
"LET'S. GET. DANGEROUS."
Metallica's "Seek and Destroy" sends the crowd into a frenzy for the arrival of the CWD's newest star!
Kelsi Minx: Why does that sound familiar? Could it be?!
Nigel Astin: What has Roerich done?!
The tall, stocky, dark-skinned man with a bit of a CWD history......the man stepped out of the entrance area wearing nylon track pants black with blue pinstripe and a shiny, "glossy" cyan t-shirt. With a mic in hand, black opaque shades adorned his face, though it didn't take long for the shades to be lifted off, revealing the man's identity.
MAX Danger: Miss me?
Kelsi Minx: Ohmygosh...we haven't seen him since.......
Nigel Astin: This guy? I can't think of anyone on the roster who actually liked this guy............
Kelsi Minx: Really? I always thought he was a hell of an athlete that was always more than willing to give you a hundred percent of everything he had in the tank.
Nigel Astin: Nope. He's got some kind of personal axe to grind with our company face, he's trash.
MAX Danger: It's been a few months since I've surfaced, I know. After that time in Mexico, I went back to Brazil to work on my skills some more, away from the cameras, the glitz, the glam, and most importantly the distractions of social media. I always knew I'd be back here, and I always did have a soft spot for this place, and I would have come here sooner if I didn't have a rule about working for one person at a time. It's nice to see some familiar faces though...hi Sam.
The camera does a quick cut to show MAX waving at former co-worker and friendly rival Sam Tolson, from their time in Mexico together.
MAX Danger: Of course as things go, when one door closes another opens. I'm proud of where I came from, the work I put in, you feel? Imagine my feelings when my employer closed up, as quickly as it opened. But then I got a phone call from Mr. Roerich and we had a good chat. A nice, long chat...so nice, in fact, that I'm out here right now to tell you you'll be able to see me do what I do best, right here in the CW!
*POP!*
MAX Danger: You see, thanks to Mr. Roerich, I will be bringing my services to this great company, and it starts at Horror in the Hills...in that very Elimination Chamber match, for the Hollywood Heritage title!!
Nigel Astin: WHAT?! Why would Ethan Roerich give this over-hyped rookie a huge opportunity in his company debut?! At least Sam Tolson is a household name. At least Equinox, Eddy, and Mischa are longtime CW mainstays. But MAX? What does he bring to the table?
Kelsi Minx: Looks like an aire of legitimacy from being such an accomplished underground mixed martial arts fighter. Did you know he went one-hundred twenty-nine and oh, with one-hundred twenty-nine knockouts? That's an impressive feat to have on anyone's roster.
Nigel Astin: It's probably padded, honestly. How many of those knockouts were against scrubs that couldn't even benchpress a box of doughnuts?
Kelsi Minx: Well that was rude.
MAX Danger: To the CW universe, to the men and women in the back...come Horror in the Hills, I only got one question for ya. Are you ready, to get dangerous?!
The fans cheer outrageously as we fade into a Horror in the Hills vignette.
Easily the match of the night with a mildly injured Britney Anders and a highly fatigued Anaquin Adams, the two start off at a slow pace, doing their best to prevent one another from being successful with the strikes in their arsenal. Anders blocks the kick from Adams with both forearms only to connect with a spinning back fist of her own. Anders goes the Make Over in the early going but Adams lands an elbow to the jaw before slamming Adams via a german suplex! Adams takes her time, and rolls away from Britney, using every advantage sh can to catch a breather.
Anaquin Adams has control of the match up until Britney slides out, favoring her ankle again. The official checks on Britney but Anaquin is not having it tonight and just attacks Britney on the outside, refusing the listen to the officials orders. Adams grabs Britney and slings her with a hip top and Britney slams her ankle against the ring post in the process.
With Britney injured but refusing to quit the champions frustrations grow. The two battle in the ring and out of the ring but Britney gets control on the outside after a cheap rake of the eyes and a few throws into the guard rail and then the ring steps. Britney Anders pulls the mat up from around the ring exposing the concrete below. Before Britney can execute her planned attack, Anaquin Adams is on her feet and fighting back with strikes. Adams takes the fight back into the ring where she out wrestles Britney in true mat technician fashion. Every strike from Britney is blocked, the crowd cheers her on and Adams has a solution for everything Britney throws at her. Britney goes for a snap suplex and the champion transitions that into a small package,
..1!... .. ...2!... ... ...NEAR FALL!
Britney makes it out at the last second. The battle pushes on and Britney Anders stands in the ring with Anaquin Adams standing on the apron. After failed attempts at suplexes and keeping the anticipation high, the two hold onto each other by the hair and mach toward the corner. Britney smashes into the turnbuckle pad, bursting her nose open on impact and the Hollywood Honors Champion, smacks her shoulder into the ring post before falling to the outside.
KELSI MINX: Ouch!
NIGEL ASTIN: Is Britney okay?
Britney let's out a screech similar to a banshee cry. In the center of the ring Britney throws a fit and complains about her looks to Xavier Action.
NIGEL ASTIN: No. Anaquian should be fined!
Britney erupts with Anger and slides out of the ring and goes straight for Anaquin. Britney uses her ability to cheat as a way to open up punishments on Anaquin, using a rake of the eyes, closed fists, and being overly aggressive with Adams in the corner. The Champion steps away from the turnbuckle and Britney is there to send her back into the corner via a running double knee strike! The champion loses all her wind and falls to the canvas. Britney wipes blood from her nostrils and shakes her hand over Adams, dropping her blood onto Adams in little droplets before delivering an aggressive knee strike to the chin.
Britney stays in control using a roll up pin on Anaquin Adams after ducking the clothesline attempt,
...1!...
....
....2!...
.....
....BREAK COUNT!!
Xavier Action stops the count and gets into a verbal argument with Britney about all her cheating. Britney blows it off and goes back to her fight with Anaquin Adams, pulling the champ to her feet and driving her into the canvas with a stiff ddt! Britney makes the cover and this time she uses the ropes or leverage. Xavier Action doesn't drop down to count he just stands in the corner with his arms crossed. Britney rises from the canvas in a rage. The fans cheer for Xavier's actions and boo Britney the entire time. Britney steps out of the way of Anaquin Adams and the champ plows into Xavier Action, both smashing into the turnbuckle. Xavier falls down with what appears to be back pain. Anaquin Adams stops to check on him. Meanwhile Anders has removed brass knuckles from her wrestling boots.
KELSI MINX: Wait one damn minute.... Is THAT why she has had these miraculous victories tonight?
NIGEL ASTIN: Oh stop it Kels. That's a little much.
KELSI MINX: No seriously.
Britney stalks Anaquin Adams and when she turns around Britney cleans her clock with a right hook to the side of the head. With Adams down, Britney makes the cover,
...1!... .... ....2!!.... ..... BREAK COUNT!
Xavier Action stops counting and catches Britney trying to hide the brass knuckles. He hops up and calls for the bell!
DING! DING! DING!
WINNER BY DQ AND STILL CW HOLLYWOOD HONORS CHAMPION: ANAQUIN ADAMS (28 MINUTES and 17 SECONDS)
NIGEL ASTIN: Britney was robbed!
KELSI MINX: No way! She got what she deserved.
Britney attacks Adams before she can accept the belt and the trophy from Xavier Action. Kendrick Kross hurries down to ringside and cheers Britney on as she absorbs the boos of the fans and starts stomping out the champion. Fans throw drink cups and beers into the ring as Kross and Anders put the boots to the champion. Suddenly, the arena lights go out and black and white strobe lights flicker throughout the warehouse. A banshee screech is heard and the lights come back on and Maki is standing tall in the center of the ring with the Fempire checking on Anaquin Adams. They all surround her with Eddy Poe just hanging around at the top of the stage. Britney and Kendrick panic in the aisle while thinking of the best way to escape. The fans go absolutely nuts with the anticipation of seeing Kendrick Kross and Britney Anders take a serious beatdown!
From behind the curtain Rex Cassidy clubs Eddy Poe over the head and Brady Vega sprints out and down toward the ring with the Ravil Clan not far behind him.
KELSI MINX: What is going on?!!! We need to get this cleared up!
Security members rush out with event staff and stop the full out assaults as the show goes off air.
