006: California Wrestling HQ Conference Room - 8/31/2019 9:25 AM
CW production crews take us Mr. Roerich's office. Paperwork fills the conference table from one end to other and Mr. Roerich is seen standing off to the side, gazing out the window. Morning traffic builds on the highways in the distance while Roerich stands in place, deep in his thoughts. A vibrating cell phone on the conference table forces Mr. Roerich to turn away from the window and take a seat at the conference table. Ethan answers the phone.
E. ROERICH: "Hello?"
The voice on the other end is low and raspy.
"Soooouulllss..." The voice says before hanging up. Roerich looks at his cell phone confused for a moment before simply placing the phone face down on the table. A notification shortly after causes Roerich to look at his phone again. A twitter notification arrives on the CW Account. "YOU SUCK!" are the first words he sees. Ethan laughs and puts the phone down. Notifications continue to flood the phone and Roerich just ignores it.
The papers on the table grab his attention. Budget sheets, orders to be approved, contracts, and resumes of talent to contact. Jack Martin bursts into the room.
J. MARTIN: "Mr. Roerich! Mr. Roerich!"
Ethan gives Jack his attention
J. MARTIN: "Good news. Jan VanDer Roost has called. I've placed him on hold on line 2."
Ethan smiles at the mention of the veteran.
E. ROERICH: "It's always good to hear from Old Man Roost. Thank you."
Jack exits the office and Ethan walks over to his desk phone.

STANDARD MATCH Kayla Craft -vs- Whisper
DING! DING! DING!...
The bell sounds and Craft greets Whisper with a basement dropkick that sends Whisper flying back into the corner, smacking the turnbuckles. Kayla plants a european uppercut to the jaw of Whisper before throwing her across the ring to the opposite turnbuckle via an irish whip. Kayla Craft srints toward Whisper and eats a boot to the face that slows her down. Craft regroups and is taken down by a vicious clothesline from Whisper.
S. AIMES: "Holy crap! Her name is Whisper, but her moveset is loud"
K. MINX: "About as loud as Kayla's mouth. Kayla deserves this sort of beating. She disrespected the boss."
S. AIMES: "Not everyone can kiss ass the way you do Kelsi."
K. MINX: "Eat me."
S. AIMES: "Been there. Done that. I'd rather be trans."
K. MINX: "Son of a--"
S. AIMES: "BITCH SLAP! KAYLA CRAFT WITH THE BITCH SLAP!!!"
Kayla Craft scolds Whisper and Whisper is a few feet away holding her hand to her face in total shock. Whisper sprints forward and is hit by a takedown from Kayla before Kayla begins wailing on Whisper with punches. After a fury of fists, Whisper catches Kayla by the arm and transitions her into an armbar!
K. MINX: "She's going to tap! She's going to tap!"
S. AIMES: "Kayla's got too much fight in her!"
Kayla Craft crawls and claws her way to the ropes and grabs hold of the bottom rope with her foot. Tap Marksman counts to four before Whisper finally lets go of Kayla's arm. Whisper drag Craft to the center of the ring before guiding her to her feet and pulling in a downward motion on Craft's arm, causing torque on the elbow. Kayla kicks Whisper in the stomach before sprinting and slinging herself out of the ring cables. Whisper retaliates with a rolling wheel kick! Whisper makes the immediate cover,
...
...1!...
...
...KICKOUT!...
...
Whisper is first to her feet but Kayla Craft follows shortly after. Whisper smacks Craft with a right hook before sending her into the ring ropes. Craft slings out and hits Whisper with a running crossbody that puts Whisper down on her back. Craft hops to her feet an shouts, "Get up!" before puling Whisper to her feet by her hair and walking her over to the corner and slamming her head into the turnbuckle.
S. AIMES: "Kayla Craft is looking to prove a point. How do you think she would fair against Dameon Khaos?"
K. MINX: "Seeing how he's a demon I believe she stands no chance at all. It will be a massacre that no one wants to have to see."
S. AIMES: "I think Kayla Craft could be an A+ talent around CW. She was trained in ICWA."
K. MINX: "My point exactly."
Kayla Craft pulls Whisper out of the corner but Whisper using her in-ring awareness and sends Kayla out of the ring. Craft holds onto the ropes and plants her feet strongly on the ring apron before landing a vicious elbow to the jaw of Whisper. Whisper steps back, but quickly regroups and comes after Kayla again. Whisper punches Kayla and tries to run for the ropes but Kayla quickly gets a handful of Whisper's hair and pulls her down to the canvas before connecting with a springboard legdrop!
Kayla Craft makes the cover,
...
...1!...
...
...2!...
...
...KICKOUT!...
...
Kayla Craft rises to her feet and starts kicking Whisper as she tries to rise to her feet. Whisper responds with a punch of her own that leaves Kayla Craft reeling. Whisper sprints at Kayla but Kayla beheads her with a superkick!
S. AIMES: "KRAFT WITH A K FOR KICK!"
K. MINX: "That fuck kind of joke is that?!"
Kayla Craft makes the cover,
...
...1!...
...
...2!...
...
...3!....
...
DING! DING! DING!
Tap Marksman raises Kayla Craft's arm in victory and the fans applaud her heavily! Ethan Roerich steps though the curtain with Jan Van Der Roost beside him and both men are applauding Kayla. Kayla asks for the microphone.
KAYLA CRAFT: "Roerich, I want Dameon Khaos!"
Ethan Roerich stops at the bottom of the walkway but JVD continues into the ring and congratulates Kayla. She is grateful but raises the microphone again.
KAYLA CRAFT: "What's the deal Roerich?! What's it going to be? I made quick work on Whisper. I... want... Dameon Khaos."
S. AIMES: "This chick is insane."
Ethan Roerich waits for the ring crew member to bring him a microphone before responding.
ETHAN ROERICH: "Kayla, you have proven yourself a good talent and a good signing, but I do not want to see your promising career here end earlier than expect, so if you want Dameon Khaos you've got to do one thing. Prove yourself. Prove that you can defeat JVD at the next Open House Fundraiser and you'll get your match against Dameon Khaos!"
JVD and Kayla stare at one another surprised as JVD was not even expecting this to happen. The fans go crazy as the two shake hands and wish one another well. Ethan Roerich grins heavily.

[The Warehouse] Hollywood, CA. September 10, 2019
POSEDOWN COMPETITION Handsome Kenny -VS- "Marvelous" Mike Mason
In the ring there are three hand selected judges from the audience and "Tap" Marksman standing side by side and Handsome Kenny rests on the top turnbuckle with his legs draped over the ring ropes and a blow pop sucker in his mouth and his shades over his face with his button up unbuttoned. He jumps down and oils himself up with a bottle of baby oil just before "The Man" by Aloee Black begins to play over the speakers. CW's fanbase loves the song as they vibe out to it, but ultimately they boo Mike Mason as he strides to the ring in a pair of jeans and tennis shoes with no shirt.
S. AIMES: "This is one of CW's greatest new signings Minx."
K. MINX: "He's simply marvelous!"
S. AIMES: "Ok you can stop drooling at anytime."
K. MINX: "I don't drool, ever."
S. AIMES: "Not what--"
The sound of the screaming fans forces Sullivan Aimes to go silent as Handsome Kenny pours baby oil over his stomache and taunts Mike Mason. Kenny follows up by throwing the baby oil bottle out of the ring and girating his hips in front of Mason. Kenny flexes his abs and his biceps before taunting Mike Mason. Mason looks disgusted at first, but laughs shortly after and begins posing; flexing his abs and biceps before making his pecks jump.
K. MINX: "Mike Mason is my type of man."
S. AIMES: "He's a walking floaty."
K. MINX: "You don't find anything wrong with big fake breasts though. That is odd."
S. AIMES: "That's different."
K. MINX: "It is, but it isn't."
Mike Mason continues to pose, crushing every pose Handsome Kenny attempts. Kenny sucks on the blow up while Mike Mason continues to laugh at him while he tries a variation of poses. Finally, Mason gets tired of Kenny's antics and he clobbers him with a clothesline! The CW fans erupt with boos.
K. MINX: "I guess he was tired of playing this dull game of monkey see, monkey do."
Mike Mason smiles as he stomps on Handsome Kenny and bullies "Tap" Marksman and Pamela Baxter into fleeing to the outside of the ring. The larger than life Marvelous one, lifts Handsome Kenny to his feet and drops him with a powerbomb before basking in the glory of the fans hatred for his actions. The Marvelous One stands victorious and dominant in the middle of the ring. The Bod God holds his hand out demanding a microphone and Kori Taylor goes to hand it to him, but he snatches it from her hand. The Mecca of Manhood then shoos her away with his hand.
The crowd begins to boo as TM1 shoos away Kori. Triple M does however take a moment to check out Kori's butt as she leaves, but he shakes his head "no", and his face shows his disappointment.
The crown boos, louder and this only causes the Bod God to smile. The Titan then points to Handsome Kenny who is laying on the outside of the ring.
THE MARVELOUS ONE: This... this is what you think is handsome?
The Big Natty Daddy then points to his own ripped, jacked, and tan body.
THE MARVELOUS ONE: Well, if he's considered handsome, than I am a God. I AM, THE BOD GOD!
The Bod God hits a front double bicep pose and the boos grow louder.
THE MARVELOUS ONE: "I'm going to need all you B movie rejects, who couldn't get a role as an extra in a Tarantino movie to shut your mouths, while the Mecca of Manhood is talking."
The crowd continues to boo, and Triple M's cocky smile changes to a look of anger and disgust.
THE MARVELOUS ONE: "What I just did to Kenny, is only a sneak preview of what I am capable of and what I will do to the rest of the California Wrestling roster. As of right now, I'm declaring myself the NUMBER ONE SEED, for the Hollywood Haters Ball. I am the number one seed, because I am The Mecca of Manhood, because I am the Bod God, because I am simply...Marvelous. AND, I am, the next Hollywood Heritage champion. So, Kayla Craft, you six, Whisper, you five, Kenny you two, and Damon Khaos you zero, and anyone else out there who wants to enter the Hollywood Haters Ball, just know you are doing so at risk to your own health. I am the most beautiful specimen in not only California Wrestling, but in the entire sport of professional wrestling. I am the most jacked and the most tanned. I have the nicest abs in the industry and the only down side to me becoming the Hollywood Heritage champion is that the championship will be covering these amazing abs, and the world won't get to see them
The crowd begins to boo, and The Big Natty Daddy places his arms behind his head and flexes his abs, showing them off to the crowd.
THE MARVELOUS ONE: "You hate me, because you can't be me. You people sitting in that crowd on your fat asses, with burrito stains on your shirts, you should be booing yourselves. You should boo yourselves for being to lazy and to complacent to work for more. Don't get mad at me because I have the drive and determination to achieve greatness. I work my ass off for greatness. That work I put in is exactly what will make me the first Hollywood Heritage Champion and exactly why I AM...SIMPLY...MARVELOUSSSSSSS!"
The Mecca of Manhood tosses the microphone down as "I'm the man" by Aloe Blacc begins to play. TM1 flashes his bright white smile as he strikes another pose to a round of boos.
S. AIMES: "Could you imagine if Mike Mason were to win the Hollywood Heritage Championship?"
K. MINX: "It would be tough to defeat him, that's for sure."
S. AIMES: "Did you hear the rumors Minx? Apparently, Roxi Johnson was spotted at Headquarters earlier this morning. Potentially a new signing?"
K MINX: "I've seen here in the audience as well. I think. Maybe she took a bathroom break during the pose down, but I am almost positive that I had spotted her."
S. AIMES: "No that had to be Talia Areano. I spotted her out in the crowd as well."
K. MINX: "I wonder if they were planted in the audience by Roerich, you know he has a way of doing things with a real twang of espionage."
Cameras are backstage and Penelop is seen exiting Mr. Roerich's office with a smile on her face as she finishes her conversation with the CW lawyers. She reaches the end of the hallway and is greeted by Mikey Lipschitz, who is holding a 32 oz. Miller High Life in his hand.
PENELOPE: "Eww! Someone call pest control, we've got rodents backstage."
Mikey grins before taking a lengthy chug of his 32 ounce beer.
MIKEY LIPSCHITZ: "Ha! Right, right. And you are?!"
Penelope fans the vapor of alcohol infused breath from in front of her face.
PENELOPE: "You need a mint. Get out of my face."
Lipschitz burps in Penelop's face and she smacks him immediately.
PENELOPE: "You disrespectful little shit! YUCK! Do you know who I am?!"
Penelope scolds Lipschitz but he has no idea who she is and he makes it known by blinking multiple times before taking another sip of his beer.
PENELOPE: "I am the future Hollywood Heritage Champion. Show a little more respect."
Penelope continues past Lipschitz and Lipschitz objectifies her as he checks out her backside. He wipes his forehead and then whistles before cameras fade out and we cut to ringside.
MAIN ATTRACTION MENTOR VERSUS STUDENT Jan van der Roost -VS- Kayla Craft
DING! DING! DING!...
The student vs mentor match begins with Kayla Craft talking trash from her corner while Jan simply nods his head, letting her have her moment. Craft was a defiant punk-rock inspired early 30's rookie while Jan was a world traveled success story, so he knew how to keep his composure. Kayla makes the first move as she darts across the ring and looks to clothesline JVD into the corner but Jan slips out in timely fashion and watches Kayla crash and burn into the turnbuckle. She clutches her chest in pain and turns to face him, resting her back against the top turnbuckle.
S. AIMES: "That was a veteran counter early on by Jan van der Roost. As much spunk and fire as Kayla has, you have to wonder if she's ready for someone as experienced as the Rooster."
K. MINX: "The fans love her already because of her style, but this is going to be substance over style. I mean we all know the Rooster doesn't have any style, but he does have substance for days."
Jan takes it upon himself to now begin the attack as he walks towards a recovering Kayla and meansures her up. He hits her with a knife edge chop right above her breast which sends a sickening sound throughout the warehouse and lights the crowd up early. Jan looks her right in the eyes and follows it up with a second knife edge chop, to the exact same location, turning her chest red early on. He then turns his back to her and slings her over his shoulder and to her butt before sitting down and locking in a seated headlock.
K. MINX: "Van der Roost looking to put the crowd to sleep here, I mean, the technique is unmatched."
S. AIMES: "Say what you want about the style he chooses, it may not be the most preferred by the CW faithful, but it's effective and he's wearing Ms.Craft out here early on."
Kayla miraculously turns the tables however and wiggles to her feet surprising the veteran. She hits a three pack of elbows to his stomach and breaks the hold. Kayla then runs off the ropes and hits a front dropkick that staggers Jan back a few steps. JVD then charges at Kayla but she whips him to the mat with an arm drag and tries wrenching on an arm bar but Jan shows he still has a lot left in the tank as he kips up to his feet and reverses the arm pressure and whips Kayla to the mat by her arm, yanking it from her shoulder essentially causing the newcomer to yell out in pain.
S. AIMES: "Excellent work here by van der Roost. This guy is like a fine wine, he gets better with time."
Jan places his boot on her shoulder as she's face down against the mat. He maintains a hold on her arm and twists it, but Kayla refuses to submit. Jan keeps the hold on for nearly two minutes, but upon realizing that she wasn't going to give, he pulls her to her feet and buries a knee deep into her abdomen bending her over. He then hooks her arms and hits a perfect pump handle slam and goes for the cover.
...1!... 2... ...BREAK COUNT!
K. MINX: "Want to tell me how she managed to kick out of that? This one has been all JVD so far."
S. AIMES: "It has, but Kayla is showing that she has heart, something that is vital if you want to make it in CW."
Jan tries pulling her to her feet but she surprises him with a small package roll-up pin!
1..
......2... .... BREAK COUNT!
S. AIMES: "Sneaky move there by Kayla, and she almost picked up the surprise win!"
She scurries back to her feet and ducks a clothesline attempt from Jan and rolls him backwards for ANOTHER pin attempt!
...1... ... 2... BREAK COUNT!
The fans are going wild as both competitors make it to a knee and stare across the ring at each other. Jan gives her a nod of respect and Kayla returns it as they both make it back to their feet. They tie-up in the middle of the ring and Jan now gets the upper hand, using his strength as he pushes her into the corner. He goes to drive a shoulder into her abdomen but she leaps over it but by the time she turns around, Jan does connect with a clothesline this time that drops her to the ground. He moves to her legs and locks her in a single leg crab but Kayla makes it to the ropes and grabs them.
K. MINX: "Smart move by the newcomer. I have to give her props for knowing where she's at in the ring."
S. AIMES: "No doubt, but Jan has impressed me tremendously. I hope we see more of him in the Warehouse."
Jan was impressed. He knew she had heart but he has already used many technical holds and counters and she was still in the match. He hoists her up once more and this time tucks her head between his legs. He signals to the fans that it's over as he lifts her up and spikes her with a package piledriver that gives off a brutal noise of skull being driven into the mat. He rolls her over and hooks a single leg.
...1... ... 2... ....... ... BREAK COUNT!
S. AIMES: "How did she kick out of that one?! I thought it was over right there!"
K. MINX: "Look at this though, the Dutch Death Stalker is stalking his prey as she's stirring. He's just waiting for her to get up..."
JVD guides Kayla to her feet and lands a knife edge chop before tossing Kayla into the ring ropes. She shoots out and is slammed with a tilt-a-whirl backbreaker from the veteran. JVD makes another cover, hooking the leg in the process...
...1......
2.......
...
..KICKOUT!...
K. MINX: "Old Man Rooster almost walked out as the winner."
S. AIMES: "Craft has more fight in her than most competitors though."
K. MINX: "I thinks she more talk than anything."
S. AIMES: "We shall see."
JVD allows Kayla Craft to make it to her feet before he slingshots himself out of the ring cables. Kayla out of nowhere goes for a superkick but JVD ducks out of the way, just barely missing contact.
S. AIMES: "We always witnessed another Kraft with a K for Kick!"
K. MINX: "That name is stupid."
JVD lands a kick in the midsection before attempting a double arm ddt. Kayla breaks her arms free and grabs JVD by the back of the calves causing him to fall to his back. She crosses his legs over and applies a Texas Cloverleaf.
S. AIMES: "THE KAYLOCK!!! She's got it locked in!!"
JVD thinks quickly and fights for the ring ropes. The ropes are too far so JVD uses his elbow to smash Kayla in the ankle, giving himself a moment to take advantage and he makes the most of it. JVD knocks Kayla down and transitions her into a single leg boston crab! Kayla shouts in pain, but unfortunately she's very close to the edge of the ring and her arm is actually resting beneath the bottom rope. Tap Marksman makes this known to Jan van der Roost and he releases Kayla's leg and steps toward the middle of the ring.
K. MINX: "She got so lucky!"
S. AIMES: "I'll agree with you this one time Kelsi."
K. MINX: "Mhhmmm."
JVD pulls Kayla by the hair once she makes it to her feet and he places her head between his legs, with her double over and ready to receive a piledriver. Kayla instead drops to her knees and plants a stiff forearm to the stomach of JVD. Kayla locks JVD into a grapple and slams him with a belly to belly suplex! Kayla steps onto the ring apron and gets the crowd riled up before going for a spingboard leg drop! Before she can land it, JVD rolls out of the way and Kayla sits upright on the canvas in pain. Jan van der Roost takes advantage of this, lands a stiff kick in the face and pulls Kayla to her feet immediately and throws her into the turnbuckle.
S. AIMES: "Jan is literally, one step ahead of Kayla at all times."
K. MINX: "He taught her what she knows. What do you expect?!"
JVD delivers powerful shoulder thrusts into the midsection of JVD before he lifts her off of her feet and places her in a seated position on the top turnbuckle with her feet on the middle ropes. JVD step onto the second rope and Kayla fights back, landing punches and forearms before shoving JVD back. JVD loses his balance and falls to the canvas but lands on his feet. Kayla leaps from the ropes immediately and plants JVD with a tornado ddt! Kayla hooks the leg,
...
....1!...
...
...2!...
....
...3!...
....
DING! DING! DING!
Kayla gets her hand raised in the victory and the crowd give her and JVD a standing ovation. JVD congratulates her and the two shake hands.

"WHAT IN THE FUCK ARE YOU TWO DOING?!!! THAT'S DISRESPECTFUL!"
Ethan Roerich nearly lets out a voice crack within his shouting while awaiting Sativa and Morgan to round the corner. Sativa Nevaeh and Morgan Payne finely show face, Morgan showcases a big cheese on her face meanwhile Sativa seems more business is business oriented. Ethan gets in Sativa's face and looks her dead in the eyes before he decides to go all Stanley Kubrick on Darth Ganja.
"IT'S DISRESPECTFUL! Let's get one thing clear here, you don't have to like me but you two will respect me, and you will respect my backstage rules as well as my in-ring rules. What do you have to say for yourselves?" Roerich steps over to Morgan Payne. "You want to attack the Hollywood Heritage Champion? That's funny to you?! Hahahaha laugh it up. Ahyuck, yuck, yuck." Morgan Payne continues to smile aftrer Roerich mimics her laughter.
"You attacked Ch'ang and now you're demanding your match immediately? The shows over. And we didn't fit you into the budget today. We couldn't pay you for performing. We need Sativa to sign this contract. You signed before her and she decided to play little miss hold out, now she needs to sign that contract and you need to prepare for when your match does happen." The silence felt like music to Morgan and Sativa's ears. They both remain silent and Mr. Roerich just steps from one of them to the other and looking them in the eyes. Roerich eventually stops pacing and the redness in his face settles a little bit before the camera crew and I were spotted and forced to shut off all of our equipment.

010: California Wrestling Warehouse POST TAKEOVER - 11/14/2019 1:25 AM
The venue is emptied and Mr. Roerich is shown entering the parking lot with the other CW Talent. Amelia Hogan scolds him as he passes by. Unaware of the reasoning, Roerich continues toward his destination to the large CW Production Truck at the very back of the lot. Jack Martin is spotted speaking with Tap Marksman and Tap is holding a black velvet bag over his shoulder.
ETHAN ROERICH: "Jack.. Tap... evening gentlemen. Have you spoken with Melissa at all?"
JACK MARTIN: "No, we have not. Not yet anyhow."
ETHAN ROERICH: "We need to make sure she knows that not making her call time is unexcuseable and that she will be fined, $30,000 fo the infraction."
Tap and Jack nod in agreement. Tap slings the bag off his shoulder and hands it to Roerich.
TAP MARKSMAN: "What should I be doing with this sir?"
ETHAN ROERICH: "Ah, the Immortal Icon Championship. This thing is beautiful."
JACK MARTIN: "Can I see it?"
ETHAN ROERICH: "Not until we get back to the office. We've got lots of work to do, I hope you are prepared."
JACK MARTIN: "Are you bringing back the division as a whole?"
ETHAN ROERICH: "No, we are not. It's going to be defended under traditional wrestling rules. Much like the Hollywood Heritage Division. Sativa Neveah is going to be very upset about her contractual obligations."
JACK MARTIN: "Her legal team is demanding she receive her championship match."
ETHAN ROERICH: "I'm sick of their demands. I should tell them, her contract states she receives a Pride Championship Match, not any championship match, but it is alright. Make an announcement for me will ya?"
Jack nods his head.
ETHAN ROERICH: "December 12th will be our next event day and I'm thinking I know just how to satisfy, Darth Ganja and her team."
Ethan looks at Jack, making sure he is giving him his undivided attention. Tap remains standing in silence.
ETHAN ROERICH: "December 12th at Takeover: 'Wrestling Clinic' we will see Sativa Nevaeh take on the winner of the Immortal Icon Championship."
Jack Martin snickers.
JACK MARTIN: "Oh that sounds good boss. Sounds real good."
Cameras fade out as Roeich and Martin walk away, leaving Tap near the Production truck.
