[The Warehouse] - Hollywood, CA. Oct. 1, 2019
TUESDAY NIGHT TAKEOVER | EPISODE 1 "The Hollywood Haters Ball"
FADE IN:
We open to a video package of the recently Open House events at the CW Warehouse! We witness the destruction Dameon Khaos leaves in his wake before a smash cut takes us to an image of JVD versus Kayla Craft. Kayla Craft picks up the victory and the crowd goes wild before moving forward to imagery of another Open House event. There is marijuana flags, cure for cancer sponsors and glimpses of CW talent interacting with fans before jumping forward to the complete brawl that broke out on Sept. 27th at the event.
Mike Mason cleans house and destroys just about everyone with his mass and strength before Ch'ang flies back into the ring landing a big high risk move, bringing Mike Mason down. Ch'ang throws cash around the ring and the fans love it. Ch'ang is hit by a superkick from Roxi Johnson and flies out of the ring. Roxi Johnson and Kendrick Kross have a stand off in the center of the ring and the TAKEOVER logo flashes across the screen.
CUT TO:
INT. CW WAREHOUSE - INDOOR VENUE
There are 3,280 CW fans packed into the Warehouse wearing merchandise, holding signs, and going absolutely insane as the drone flies around the two level venue. A video screen hangs above a black curtain that has a black velvet carpet rolled down to the squared circle area where white mats are placed around the ring. A giant bear claw image ripping through the clotch of the canvas is printed in the center of a purple star with CALIFORNIA * WRESTLING written in green lettering in various angles and directions on the ring skirt that surrounds the ring apron and canvas. The cameras soon cut to the broadcast table where we are greeted by Stacy Sterling, Kelsi Minx, and Sullivan Aimes. They are all dressed casually but could easily be seen in a photo spread of a magazine if asked.
S. AIMES: "Hello once again ladies and gentlemen, we are LIVE from the warehouse! I'm Sullivan Aimes alongside Kelsi Minx and our guest commentator for the evening is Stacy Sterling our latest and probably biggest acquisition."
K. MINX: "Aside from the signing of Melody Marshall."
S. AIMES: "Stop it Minx."
K. MINX: "No, fuck that. It's been the talk all week, who is the better acquisition? Melody Marshall or Stacy Sterling?
S. AIMES: "We're not going to discuss that. Welcome to the broadcast Stacy we are very happy to have you here."
S. STERLING: "Very happy to be here. Even more happy to have signed with the company. I feel the place could need protection."
S. AIMES: "Protection from what?"
S. STERLING: "Evil, Sullivan. Evil."
K. MINX: "There is no evil in CW.
The lights in the arena go dark as the opening chords of “Heist” hit the speakers. The crowd goes up in cheers as a big
“Player 1 Ready…”
comes up on the screen. In the break between the opening chords and the main tune the screen flashes
“Game Start!”
The main tune hits and the lights come back up showing Kate on the stage in a hooded jacket with a huge smile on her face, dancing to her music. Kate flips the hood down and skips down the ramp trading high fives and hugs with various members of the crowd. She even stops a few times to pose for some selfies with the crowd members. Kate reaches ringside and continues skipping one full round around the ring only trading high fives with audience members. When she gets to the corner, the audience goes wild as Kate blows out a kiss to everyone. Kate slides into the ring and jumps to one of the corners and poses once for pictures. As her music fades, she hops off the ropes and goes to her corner, removing her jacket and warming up for her match.
S. AIMES: "Cali-Kate looking to make her mark here tonight.
K. MINX: "She will certainly have her hands full."
S. AIMES: "The rules are simple folks, all matches tonight have a 30 minute time limit, competitors have ten seconds to get back into the ring and the championship does not change hands in the event of a count out or a disqualification."
K. MINX: "So what does that mean for these non-title tournament matches?"
S. STERLING: "I did some investigating on this exact issue earlier today and Mr. Roerich stated if any of these matches end in a dq or count out both competitors will be denied the ability to move on to the next round."
K. MINX: "Oh wow. So there MUST be a submission or pinfall in tonight's competitions."
Under and Over It hits the PA system as the arena goes dark. A few seconds later Kendrick walks out from the back with Amaya by his side. When the lyrics start red pyro shoots out from either side of the stage and the lights flash white and red as Kendrick slowly starts walking down towards the ring with his arm draped over Amayas shoulders. Kendrick slowly walking, wearing a leather jacket, white tank top, black jeans and red high top sneakers stops in the middle of the ramp head down.
Kendrick slowly continues walking down the ramp until getting to the end of the ramp where he turns left, goes up the step he presses down on the bottom rope and raises the middle one allowing Amaya to enter. He follows as they go over to his corner.
S. STERLING: "I can sense mild levels of evil within him."
K. MINX: "Evil?! That's a former California Wrestling, Heritage Champion. Possibly one of our first Grand Slam Champions ever."
_________________ ROUND 1 HOLLYWOOD HERITAGE CHAMPIONSHIP TOURNAMENT Kendrick Kross -VS- Cali Kate _________________
DING! DING! DING!...
Pamela Baxter steps out of the way and allow Cali-Kate and Kendrick Kross to compete. The two circle one another for a moment before locking horns with a collar and elbow tie up. Kendrick Kross transitions into a side headlock before slinging Cali-Kate to the canvas via a headlock takedown. Cali-Kate fights her way back to her feet, still in a side headlock, she walks forward a few steps before lifting Kross and slamming him via a back suplex. Kross rolls to freedom and jumps to his feet, stays aggressive and smashes Cali-Kate in the face with a running back elbow just as she sits up. Kross makes the cover,
...1!... ... ....KICKOUT!... ...
Kross leans down and grabs Kate's hair but Kate kicks Kross in the head and this allows Cali-Kate the moment needed to get on her feet. Cali-Kate lands a few european uppercuts before sending Kendrick Kross into the ring ropes. Kendrick Kross uses his momentum to drop Cali-Kate with a stiff forearm to the face. The CW crowd boo Kendrick Kross in favor of Cali-Kate who is in a bad spot.
Kendrick Kross pulls Cali-Kate to her feet and drags her over to the ring cables where he applies pressure to the back of her neck and head with her throat resting against the ring cable. Cali-Kate gasps for air while Pamela Baxter makes a count to five before ordering Kross to let Cali-Kate go.
S. STERLING: "Kendrick Kross may suffer a disqualification if he is not careful."
S. AIMES: "That would be a sad situation."
K. MINX: "Are you insane?! That's the former champion looking to re-claim his spot and his respect."
Kross backs Pamela down with a stare and a few words and the CW Fans boo and ridicule him for it.. He smirks before turning around and falling victim to a spinning heel kick from the Geekette Extraordinaire. With Kross grounded Cali-Kate immediately lands a double foot stomp to the sternum of the former champion before hooking the leg and making a cover,
...1!... ..2 ... ....KICKOUT!... ...
K. MINX: "Baxter is a little quick with that arm rotation."
S. AIMES: "Stop it."
K. MINX: "It's true! She's counting just a little fast for my liking."
Cali-Kate feeds off the energy of the fans and makes a climb to the top rope. She attempts a frog splash, but Kross rolls out of the way and no one is home. Kate rolls around on the canvas in pain and Kendrick Kross, the shark that he is, smells blood. Kross bings Kate to her feet and slams her down via a gutwrench suplex. Kross passes on the pinfall attempt and instead places Cali-Kate into a kneebar!
K. MINX: "Kate can't take this sort of pain, she's going to tap!"
S. STERLING: "I would like to believe she has a lot more fight in her than that."
S. AIMES: "She's definitely fighting for the ropes! Will she make it though?"
S. STERLING: "Reach Kate! Reach!"
The fans begin a "KATE! KATE! KATE! KATE! KATE!" Chant. The see of fans are on their feet with excitement. Kate whips the former Pride champion into the ring ropes and stays aggressive, following after him, keeping a close enough distance to smash Kross in the head via a kick to the side of the head. Instead of falling down on th canvas, Kross' naturally falls between the ring ropes and to the outside.
S. AIMES: "The Geek Chic Kick! Impressive! K. MINX: "Kendrick Kross just saved himself. Did you see that in-ring awareness?"
Pamela Baxter begins her count as soon as the Geekete's feet hit the floor on the outside. K2 rises to his feet, dazed and confused, but notices Cali-Kate approaching out the corner of his eye and he grabs hold of her by surprise and slams her into the ring post! "Get it back in the ring!" Baxter shouts before counting and holding up five fingers. Kross tells her to shut up before lifting Cali-Kate off the mats on the outside, getting a running start and slamming her into the guard rail. The fans boo Kendrick Kross and he just says, "Fuck you." before sliding into the ring and rolling right back out, forcing Baxter to restart her count.
S. AIMES: "Kendrick Kross seem more aggressive to you after his split from Britney?"
K. MINX: "Not at all. That's the 2018 Superstar of the Year! He doesn't need Britney Anders around him to be great."
Kendrick Kross slaps Cali-Kate, showing total disrespect before tossing her back into the ring and slides in after her. Kendrick Kross tries locking Cali-Kate into an ankle lock but she pulls him into an inside cradle,
...1!...
..2
...
....KICKOUT!...
...
Kross and the Geekette make it to their feet at the same time, sprint forward and knock one another down with a double clothesline. Kross and Kate hit the canvas hard and lay motionless.
K. MINX: "Come on K2!"
S. AIMES: "This one is anybody's ball game."
S. STERLING: "Cali-Kate has a heavy amount of support from the audience tonight but I believe they both will walk out winners based on this performance."
The Geekette rises to her feet and turns around to a step up enziguri from Kendrick Kross. Kross waits patiently as Cali-Kate attempts to climb to her feet and is planted face first into the rip-claw logo in the center of the ring via a curb stomp from Kendrick Kross.
K. MINX: "HE HIT IT! THE TRAMP STAMP! THE TRAMP STAMP!"
S. AIMES: "K2 makes the cover..."
...1!...
..2
...
..KICKOUT!...
...
S. STERLING: "I really believe Kendrick Kross is going to the second round of the Hollywood Heritage Championship Tournament!"
S. AIMES: "I can't say I'm surprised. He's been in this situation before, and he's held nearly every championship in California Wrestling history."
K. MINX: "The 2018 Superstar of the year just proved why re-signing him was a wise move."
Kendrick Kross can't believe it. He waits patiently as Cali-Kate begins to rise to her feet.
K. MINX: "Time to put the nail in the coffin! Wooo-hoo!"
Kate dodges the stomp and looks Kross up by the arms before executing an inverted double underhook ddt!
S. STERLING: "Kendrick Kross was just Starstruck!"
K. MINX: "What in the hell is this?!"
The Geekette makes the cover,
...
...1!....
....
...2!...
.....
...3!.....
....
DING! DING! DING!
The fans cheer for Kali-Cate as she has her hand raised in victory.
S. STERLING: "What a match!! Kendrick Kross will advance to the second round I'm excited to see who else will make their way to the second round."
K. MINX: "Clearly the winner of tonight's tournament is going to be Rome Endrizzi. I heard these loud thuds coming from backstage when I arrived and discovered Endrizzi punching a bag in his locker room."
S. AIMES: "And that guarantees him the winner how?"
K. MINX: "If he lands a punch his opponent is dead."
S. AIMES: "I have a little more faith in Ch'ang Dong-Geun than that."
The opening guitar riff of Rush' "Limelight" begin on the PA system. The cameras pan around the arena, and as the lyrics begin, Roxi Johnson rushes through the curtain and stops, a huge smile on her face. She soaks in the cheers and treks onward, seemingly greeting every fan, before climbing up on the apron and looking out at the cheering crowd, before entering the ring and climbing the turnbuckle and raising her arms in the air to massive cheers. She jumps down from the top turnbuckle and lands in the ring, turns to the hard camera side and dropping to a knee, and giving the "I love you" in sign language pose. She stands and begins jumping up and down in an exercising manner as the music cuts out.
As the eerie chords beginning "The Diary of Jane" play there are flashes among the darkened venue of purple lights. As the main guitar riff kicks in, Kayla appears at the top of the entranceway. The rebellious competitor makes her way to the ring with attitude in each step until she reaches the ring.
_________________ ROUND 1 HOLLYWOOD HERITAGE CHAMPIONSHIP TOURNAMENT Roxi Johnson -VS- Kayla Craft _________________
DING! DING! DING!...
Kayla Craft and Roxi Johnson don't waste a second. The two exchange punches in the center of the ring with Kayla Craft feeding off the crowd's momentum to keep the upper hand. With every landed punch, it's split even in favor of both Johnson and Craft. Both competitors run in opposite directions to slingshot out of the ring cables. The two ladies collide and make contact with powerful clotheslines on one another! They both hit the canvas in pain and roll onto their sides before climbing back to their feet. Roxi Johnson is first to strike connecting with a hurricanrana on Kayla Craft. Johnson quickly applies a reverse chin lock to keep Kayla Craft grounded and slow the pace of the match a little bit.
K. MINX: "TEAM ROXI! I'm not the only one."
S. STERLING: "Roxi reminds me of myself, a fellow super hero. These two ladies are both very good and a truly good sports competition is to be expected."
S. AIMES: "You're better than Kelsi at this Stacy."
K. MINX: "Right. No one's better at this than me."
S. AIMES: "Britney Anders was pretty-"
K. MINX: "Hey whoa, you shut your f**king mouth!"
With both women on their feet, Kayla battles back with elbows to the midsection. Kayla runs for the ring ropes and shoots out with great momentum and takes Roxi down with a spear. Both ladies tumble between the ring ropes and hit the mats on the outside with a thud.
S. AIMES: "They're got ten seconds to get back in the ring."
K. MINX: "Both are hurt."
S. STERLING: "But they are both blessed with a warriors spirit. This match is only just beginning."
Pamela Baxter orders the women to get back into the ring before reaching a count of 5. Kayla forces Roxi back into the ring and follows in after her. When Roxi is back on her feet Kayla sprints in her direction and attempts a clothesline but Roxi ducks underneath it and transitions into a back grapple before slamming Kayla with a blue thunder powerbomb! The fans pop! Roxi Johnson makes the cover, hooking a single leg,
... ...1!.... ..... .. ....2!.. ..KICKOUT!.. ...
Roxi Johnson brings Kayla Craft to her feet only to send her back down with a snap suplex before grabbing both legs and locking Kayla into a sharpshooter! Craft tries to prevent Johnson from locking it in, but once she steps over, Roxi locks it in and the fans pop even louder!
S.STERLING: "Oh my. That looks painful!"
S. AIMES: "Come on Kayla get to the ropes! Hurry!"
K. MINX: "Kayla's about to be humbled."
S. AIMES: "Humbled?"
K. MINX: "Yes, humbled."
...... Kayal crawls toward the ropes, Roxi Johnson struggles to keep her balance... ........ .... ....... ...... ROPE BREAK! .....
Kayla clutches the bottom rope with her left hand and Pamela Baxter orders the veteran Roxi Johnson to release the hold. Roxi waits for Kayla to make it to her fet before the two ladies meet in the middle of the ring and lock horns again. They walk each other around the ring still locked within a collar and elbow tie up. Roxi Johnson gets the upper hand and backs Kayla into a corner before they are force to separate. Johnson swings but Kayla ducks out of the way and Johnson finds herself in the turnbuckle falling victim to multiple kicks from Kayla Craft.
S. AIMES: "Kayla Craft has a victory of Jan van der Roost and it was one hell of an impressive battle at Open House!"
S. STERLING: "She's doing the same here tonight against Roxi Johnson."
Kayla Craft takes a few steps back before picking up speed and charging toward Roxi Johnson and Johnson lowers herself and Kayla runs right into the firemens carry before Johnson slams her via a samoan drop! Roxi Johnson makes the cover,
K. MINX: "This one may be over!"
... ...1!... ... ..2!... ... ..KICKOUT!... ...
Kayla Craft rolls away from Roxi and is left close to the edge of the ring apron with pain in her eyes. Roxi Johnson approaches Craft and pulls her to her feet before throwing her into the ring ropes. Craft flies out of the ring cables and leaps into the air, connecting with a lou thesz press The fury of punches follows shortly after with the CW fans cheering wildly. Kayla makes it to her feet quickly and steps onto the ring apron before landing Oh-KAY! Kayla makes a cover,
... ...1!... ... ..2!... ... ..KICKOUT!... ...
Roxi Johnson gets her foot on the bottom rope at the last second. Craft slaps the mat out of frustration before bringing Roxi Johnson to her feet. Craft uses the irish whip to set up for a superkick, but Roxi Johnson reverses the irish whip only to have Craft use her momentum to force them to swing around in another circular motion. Johnson pulls Craft toward her and drops to the canvas, pulling downward on the arm and locking Kaya Craft into a triangle choke. Kayla Craft holds off for a moment but shortly after begins to tap out to THE JUSTICE LOCK!!
DING! DING! DING!
"THE ART OF THE SCHMOOZE" Ethan Roerich | Jack Martin
Cameras take us to the other side of the Warehouse where all operations are run at the California Wrestling Headquarters Building. Jack Martin leaves the front desk and walks up the spiral staircase and down the long hallway to Mr. Roerich's office. Jack opens the door and Roerich gestures for him to enter before putting the phone on the receiver.
JACK MARTIN: "You requested that I meet with you sir?"
ETHAN ROERICH: "Yes, I need you to make a run to the store to pick up some food items and set up the conference room for a meeting with an important client."
JACK MARTIN: "Who is it?!"
ETHAN ROERICH: "Let's just say it's a big name and we also got the network locked in."
Jack looks surprised but also very much excited.
ETHAN ROERICH: "Yes, exactly. Takeover is moving to Thursday's."
JACK MARTIN: "So that means you signed--"
ETHAN ROERICH: "Shhh... sshhh.... We have to sign the contracts still. i need you to get all the supplies and set up the office. Can you do that for me? Make it look like the executive dinner parties we have. Trays of vegetables, cheeses, and meats. Roast beef, salami, turkey, you know the good stuff."
JACK MARTIN: "I'm on it Mr. Roerich."
ETHAN ROERICH: "Good."
Jack Martin rushes out of the office in that same moment that Martin disappears down the hallway, Roerich's cell phone starts to ring and he answers it with excitement. The camera's fade out and cut back to ringside.
S. AIMES: "Well folks, before we move on to our next match, we'd like to announce that California Wrestling will be moving permanently to Thursday Nights. Ethan Roerich was able to workout a TV deal AND WE ARE BACK ON ADULT SWIM!! I AM EXCITED!!"
K. MINX: "Catch talent like Stacy Sterling on Thursday Nights starting on October 10th."
S. STERLING: "I am curious to see what sort of match types the boss will book for that evening."
K. MINX: "I'm sure it'll be something amazing."
S. AIMES: "Apparently, CW is signing new talent tonight but Mr. Roerich is keeping his lips shut super tight about this one."
K. MINX: "Do you sense anything Stacy?"
S. STERLING: "Nothing at all."
S. AIMES: "Up next we will witness a change of pace in our next competition. Xion Cross will take on "Marvelous" Mike Mason in a first round match. These are two large and athletic men about to go toe to toe."
K. MINX: "They're sure to bring it."
________________
ROUND 1 HOLLYWOOD HERITAGE CHAMPIONSHIP TOURNAMENT Xion Cross -VS- "Marvelous" Mike Mason _________________
This match of similar styles and body sizes begins in the middle of the ring with a staredown between the Marvelous One and The Patron Saint of Wrestling. Mike goes for a disrespectful slap to Xion's face but Cross blocks it and begins unraveling speed strikes to the face of Mason. Xion grabs his wrist and whips him into the ropes and hits a flying shoulder tackle on Mason upon his return. Xion stands to his feet and lets out a howling scream as Kitty Rose claps for her boyfriend on the outside of the ring.
S. AIMES: "What a start by Xion Cross!"
S. STERLING: "You can hear the passion in his voice after that scream. This is a man on a mission."
K. MINX: "Don't count Mike out, he hasn't even gotten started."
As Xion bends down to pick Mike off the mat, Mason pokes him in the eyes and sends Xion stumbling backwards. Mason makes it to his feet and waits for Xion to stumble forward and as he does Mike lifts him off of his feet and drops him to the mat with a thunderous body slam that shakes the ring. He then takes the time to stand over Cross and pose, showing off his muscular physique. The fans boo the power house and he soaks in the jeers with a narcissistic sneer.
K. MINX: "Look at the Marvelous one! That body is carved out of stone."
Mike picks Xion up and throws him into the corner and runs and clotheslines him but Xion remains on his feet. The clothesline even seems to reinvigorate him as he powers his way out of the corner and takes Mike's head off with a hefty clothesline of his own. Cross goes for the first cover of the match.
...1... ... ...2... BREAK COUNT!
S. STERLING: "An early near fall by Xion Cross who has already shown his resilience."
S. AIMES: "Kitty Rose sure looks pleased on the outside."
Mike rolls to his stomach and begins crawling to the ropes but Xion gives him no time to recover as he stays on him, going for a camel clutch. Mike trips Xion and beats him to his feet, but Xion again shows his resilience by quickly making it back to his own feet. The two meet up in the middle of the ring and lock hands, both jockeying for position in this test of strength.
K. MINX: "These guys are nearly identical in size, and they appear to be at a stalemate here."
Both men grunt and try to overpower the other but for nearly two minutes the back and forth remains on a level playing field. Finally, Marvelous Mike kicks Xion in the stomach to another chorus of boos. He tosses Cross into the rope and hits a flap jack before talking trash to Xion about messing up his face. Mike then delivers a few stomps to the back of his fallen opponent before turning him over and putting his arm against the face of Cross as he goes for a pin.
1... ....BREAK COUNT!... ...
S. AIMES: "A quick kickout by Cross there."
S. STERLING: "One thing I've noticed about this match is it seems to be about runs, or back and forths. Each man packs so much power into every attack that one move can end it all. Personally, I want them to fight all night! This is a good one!"
Mike shouts for Xion to get up after the quick kickout and he has fire in his eyes as Xion gets back to his feet slowly. Mike positions himself around the backside of Cross and as Xion finally makes it up, Mike locks him in a powerful full nelson, cranking it on right in the middle of the ring. Xion tries powering out of it but he can't, leaving himself to be worn down dead center in the middle of the ring. Kitty begins pounding on the ring apron and shouting words of encouragement to Cross which seems to motivate him. Xion screams and pulls his arms together, but it still fails as Mike was too strong. Xion screams again and begins running back and sandwiches Mike into the corner which successfully breaks the hold.
K. MINX: "How did Cross get out of that one!?"
S. STERLING: "Heart! There's no substitute for it!"
As Mike turns around angrily after nearly winning the match with the brutal submission, he gets hit with a BRUTAL MERCY BLOW (Superman Punch) from Xion as he charged out of the corner. Both men crumble to the mat as Kitty again tries to cheer Xion on to make the cover.
S. AIMES: "Xion is going to do it. He's crawling towards Mason!"
Xion drapes an arm over Mason's chest.
..1... ... ...2.... ...BREAK COUNT!... ...
There were numerous gasps as Mike Mason gets his shoulder up once again! The fans can't believe it and neither can Kitty Rose ringside. Xion stands up and runs a hand through his hair. He was determined to get the job done and advance. He picks Marvelous Mike up, but Mike turns the tables on him by wrapping his arms around him and hitting a big time belly to belly suplex. He goes for the pin this time.
..1... ... ...2.... ...BREAK COUNT!... ...
S. AIMES: "Wow! Just when it looks like Mike was finished, he fights back and almost steals it right from under Xion Cross."
Mason pulls Cross to his feet and Cross lands a powerful punch that gives him some distance from Mason. Xion Cross sprints away and slings himself out of the ring ropes. Mike Mason lifts Cross from beneath the underarms and slams him down via SIMPLY MARVELOUS!!!
S. STERLING: "He got some big air!"
Mike Mason makes the cover,
... ...1...
...
...2....
...
...3!...
...
DING! DING! DING!
K. MINX: "Mike Mason advances!!"
S. AIMES: "So it'll be Mike Mason against Kendrick Kross in the next round. This should be an excellent second round!"
_________________ ROUND 1 HOLLYWOOD HERITAGE CHAMPIONSHIP TOURNAMENT Ch'ang Dong-Geun -VS- Roman Endrizzi _________________
DING! DING! DING!...
Ch'ang holds up a wad of cash in front of Rome. Rome smirks before smacking the money out of Ch'ang's hands and then punching Ch'ang in the face so hard that he drops to the canvas in an instant. Rome makes a cover,
...1!...
...KICKOUT!..
...
K. MINX: "Is this a joke?"
S. AIMES: "Ch'ang is actually very talented and athletic."
K. MMINX: "Right now he doesn't look like that at all."
Ch'ang is pulled to his feet and holds his hand to his jaw. Rome throws Ch'ang toward the ring ropes but Ch'ang surprises him and hits a reverse irish whip before smacking Rome in the face with a missle dropkick. Rome goes down but pops back up a little dazed. Ch'ang hits a superkick and Rome falls backward into the corner, sitting up right with his head wrestling against the middle turnbuckle pad. Ch'ang flies in and hits a bronco buster on Rome.
S. AIMES: "The bronco buster! Hahaha. Aww."
K. MINX: "Do you guys think Ch'ang showered today?"
S. STERLING: "Rome does not look happy."
The fans go crazy for Dong-Geun as he hurries over to grab his tablet that rests beneath the turnbuckle on the other side of the ring. He checks his hand in the game of online oker before putting his focus back on Rome Endrizzi. Endrizzi flies out of the corner and takes Ch'ang Dong Geun down via a spear! Ch'ang appears to be broken in half and Rome makes a cover,
...1!...
...
...2!...
..
...KICKOUT!..
...
K. MINX: "Rome thought he had this one squared away early."
S. AIMES: "A former championship boxer and now a wrestler. I wonder who wold win in a street fight, Rome or Samantha Tolson?"
K. MINX: "Clearly Tolson."
S. STERLING: "I don't believe she's signed here."
Rome doesn't express emotions he just pulls Geun to his feet as he arrives to his and uses a sidewalk slam in and attempt to break him in half. Rome signals to the audience that Ch'ang is done and the fans boo him as he makes another pinfall attempt, this time hooking he leg and interlocking his fingers.
...1!...
...
...2!...
..
...KICKOUT!..
...
S. AIMES: "And another kick out!"
Frustration sets in a bit and Rome picks Ch'ang apart as he tries to rise to his feet with a boxer's combination of blows to the midsection and face. Each time Ch'ang rises he is sent down to one knee from one of the heavy punches. Rome lifts Ch'ang off the canvas and to the surprise of everyone he makes an effort to fight back. Rome throw him against the ring ropes and Ch'ang hits a very momentous dropkick to the knee that brings Rome down for the first time. Ch'ang keeps the speedy pace going and leaps onto the top turnbuckle before running along the top rope and springboarding himself toward Rome. Rome catches him and falls victim to a tilt-a-whirl ddt from Ch'ang! Ch'ang hops up and connect with a superkick! The fans go nuts for Ch'ang Dong-Geun. Dong-Geun executes a springboard moonsault onto Rome and hooks the leg,
...1!...
...
...2!...
..
...KICKOUT!..
...
S. STERLING: "A near fall! Ch'ang Dong-Geun is very resilient."
K. MINX: "Anybody know if Britney is showing up tonight?"
S. AIMES: "She's signed with the company, but she is not scheduled to appear."
K. MINX: "I heard the contract negotiations were atrocious."
S. AIMES: "Yeah, we are not supposed to speak about contracts publicly."
K. MINX: "Oh shoot, I forgot about that."
S. STERLING: "Can we pay attention to the ma--"
S. AIMES: "OOOOOHHH!!"
Ch'ang Dong-Geun's body flies over the guard rail and lands on ton of fans surrounding the announce table and some electrical stuff is taken out. The feed loses audio but the match continues in silence. The fans go wild as Rome Endrizzi steps into the crowd and pulls Ch'ang off the floor and launches him over the guard railing. Pamela Baxter stands on the ring apron shouting for the competitors to get back in the ring. "6!" She counts out, making sure the competitors can hear her over the loud audience.
S. STERLING: "I think I'm good. Hello, can you hear me?!"
S. AIMES: "We can all hear ourselves finally. They took out some audio equipment in the process of battling. If their not careful they can both risk being taken out of the tournament."
K. MINX: "By ruling of the Hollywood Heritage division, there MUST be a winner. The championship does not change hands in the event of a DQ or count out, and if it's a number one contender's match of sorts, the dq or the count out could result in you losing your chance at the belt all together."
Ch'ang is rolled back into the ring by Endrizzi and he jumps to his feet just as Endrizzi slides in at the count of "9!". Endrizzi has no time to think when he slides in and once he rises to his feet Ch'ang Dong-Geun is there to greet Endrizzi with a PSYCHO CRUSHER! Endrizzi hits the canvas hard and the crowd goes absolutely insane. Ch'ang parades around the ring in a circle before stopping and pointing at the fallen Endrizzi with his index finger. At the same time that he points the fans shout, "FINISH HIM!"
S. AIMES: "This may spell the end for Rome Endrizzi."
Ch'ang catches Endrizzi with a cartwheel uppercut! The fans go wild as Ch'ang makes the cover,
...
...1!...
...
....2!...

DING! DING! DING!
Ch'ang hops to his feet and slides out of the ring. He leans over the guard rail and kisses a beautiful female in the crowd before throwing a large wad of cash at her and shouting, "I Young Goat!" The female fan loves every second of it as her friends around her laugh and the fans cheer.
K. MINX: "Seriously? The Poker Champion is going to the semi-finals? I doubt he makes it beyond Roxi Johnson OR The Most Marvelous Man to ever grace a CW ring."
S. STERLING: "I don't think Mike Mason is really that great."
S. AIMES: "He is a force, but he will have his handsful in this next contest. The Geekette Extraordinaire is on a roll! She ousted the former CW Pride Champion in the first round. What can she do in round two?"
K. MINX: "Yeah, because Kross is on the same level as Mike Mason?!"
_________________ ROUND 2 HOLLYWOOD HERITAGE CHAMPIONSHIP TOURNAMENT Cali-Kate -VS- Mike Mason _________________
DING! DING! DING!
Tap Marksman steps out of the way and Cali-Kate tries to begin the match with a running crossbody that is stopped by Mike Mason's over the head belly to belly suplex! Mike Mason jumps up quickly and flexes his muscles for the crowd and follows it up with a quick posing session before continuing his offensive. Mike Mason throws Cali-Kate against the ring ropes and slams her to the canvas with a thunderous spinebuster! Mason ignores making the cover and pulls Cali-Kate to her feet and hoists her up into a bear hug!
S. STERLING: "Cali-Kate has begun this match in a bad way!"
K. MINX: "There was no other way for her to begin or end this match Stacy, sorry to bring honesty to your delusional little mind."
S. STERLING: "What?!"
S. AIMES: "Come on ladies--OH WOW!!"
Mason sprints toward the turnbuckle with Cali-Kate in a bearhug and executes a big splash in the corner, taking all wind from Cali-Kate. She falls to the canvas in pain which forces Tap Marksman to check on her. Mike Mason drops down and starts a set of push ups in the center of the ring. Mike reaches his sixth rep before deciding to rise up again and march toward the turnbuckle corner, Tap moves out of the way off of instincts and Mason lands a running knee in the corner!
S. AIMES: "Oh wow! Mike Mason is showing complete dominance in this match! Can Cali-Kate answer the strength and agility of Mike Mason?!"
S. STERLING: "I'm not sure if she can."
K. MINX: "Of course she can't! Look at her right now. No way she's coming back from that."
Mike Mason steps away from Kate and does another pose off. The fans erupt with more boos and Mason flexes his biceps and then kisses them one after the other.
S. AIMES: "Mike Mason sees this second round competition as either a joke, or he entered with the proper strategy!"
K. MINX: "Clearly Sullivan, this is strategical!"
S. STERLING: "It's a strategy but it may come back to haunt him!"
Mike Mason is distracted from posing by the sound of the cheers from the fans. He turns around and sees Handsome Kenny standing in the front row at ringside with a L.A. Dodgers jersey unbottoned and a pair of royal blue biker shorts and a bulge in his trousers that you could see a mile away. He moves the sucker from his left jaw to his right before removing the jersey. The fans erupt with cheers as Kenny shows his awful body, oiled up and hairy. "THAT'S NOT MARVELOUS!" Mason shouts as Kenny leaps over the guard rail and starts to gyrate his hips. Meanwhile, Cali-Kate crawls away from the turnbuckle and pulls Mike Mason down into a schoolboy roll up! Tap counts the fall,
...
...1!...
....
..KICKOUT!...
...
Mason hops to his feet and forces Cali-Kate to back flip with the momentum he brings with his clothesline. Shortly after Mike Mason slides to the outside and attacks Handsome Kenny! He launches Kenny against the ring steps then picks up the sucker off of the floor and throws it at Kenny. It sticks within the chest hair and Mason continues the assault with stomps and kicks to a downed Kenny.
S. AIMES: "Poor Ken."
K. MINX: "That sick bastard is not handsome at all."
Mike Mason slides back into the ring and goes straight for Cali-Kate who has recently pulled herself to her feet in the corner. Mason goes for another running knee in the corner by Kate side steps it and Mason smashes into the turnbuckle hard. He hobbles away in pain and is met with a chop block from Cali-Kate! Mason drops to one knee and Cali-Kate flies in connecting with a shining wizard! Cali-Kate considers making a cover, but instead she hops up and starts to stomp on Mike mason's leg.
S. AIMES: "Cali-Kate has a strategy of her own and the fans are behind it one hundred percent!"
Cali-Kate sprints forward as Mike Mason climbs to his feet and slams him first face via a running bulldog! Cali-Kate makes the cover,
...
...1!....
....
....2!...
...KICKOUT!...
...
Mike Mason powers his way to his feet and Cali-Kate greets him with a dropkick. Mason stumbles back into the corner and Cali-Kate is in his face immediately after leaping onto the middle ropes. She attempts another bulldog but Mason uses his strength to launch her forward and she lands on her back on the canvas after being launched across the ring.
S. STERLING: "This does not look good for Cali-Kate right now!"
Tap Marksman checks on Cali-Kate while she is on all fours trying to make it to her feet. She rises up and a little blood trickles from her mouth. Tap considers calling for the bell but before he can ask again, Cali-Kate sprints toward Mike Mason and is knocked down by THE BEST DROPKICK EVER!
K. MINX: "THE BDE! THE BDE! THE BDE! OH MY GOD YES, THE BDE!"
S. AIMES: "Oh yeah, you like that huh?"
K. MINX: "Doesn't every lady? You wish you would perform the BDE like the Marvelous One. But You never will."
S. STERLING: "That WAS a pretty nice dropkick."
Mike Mason stands up and poses once again, taunting the fans and Cali-Kate in the process. Mike Mason heads to the top rope and just as he is about to connect with a moonsault (The Thing of Beauty) Handsome Kenny pulls Cali-Kate beneath the bottom rope and out of the ring. The fans go wild as Handsome Kenny has done another good deed on behalf of Kate. Unfortunately Tap won't be allowing that and slides out of the ring and ejects Ken immediately. The fans give a murmur of boos to Tap as Kenny shouts for someone to throw him the lube.
K. MINX: "Cali-Kate has no fight left in her."
Mike Mason slides out of the ring, clutching his arm close to his midsection as he approaches Kate. Kate kicks Mason in the midsection a few times before sliding into the ring. Mason takes the bait and follows her inside. Kate attempts the lou thesz press but Mike Mason reverses into SIMPLY MARVELOUS! Tap drops down and makes the count,
...
...1!...
...
...2!...
....
....3!....
....
DING! DING! DING!
S. AIMES: "Mike Mason advances! Tonight might be his night."
K. MINX: "Every night is Mike Mason night."
Mike Mason exits ring side and Cali-Kate slowly makes her way up the aisle. The fans cheer for her.
S. STERLING: "Mike Mason will advance to the finals to face the winner of our next contest! I am very intrigued."
K. MINX: "I may have a new favorite on the roster."
S. AIMES: "Like how Britney Anders is your favorite?"
K. MINX: "Ok, you act like people can't change. One day we hated each other, after a while we grew on each other shut up about it Sullivan."
S. AIMES: "Fair weather fan."
S. STERLING: "Cali-Kate certainly put on an impressive display in tonight's contest. Mike Mason brought the better strategy in the long run. He busted her insides and it was all over from that point."
S. AIMES: "This is true."
K. MINX: "Mike Mason did exactly what he was supposed to do. I'm ready to see who his next victim will be! Will it be Ch'ang Dong-Geun or will it be Roxi Johnson?!"
S. STERLING: "A solid competition up ahead, I think Roxi will be able to pull it off."
_________________ ROUND 2 HOLLYWOOD HERITAGE CHAMPIONSHIP TOURNAMENT Ch'ang Dong-Geun -VS- Roxi Johnson _________________
DING! DING! DING!
Ch'ang and Roxi meet in the center of the ring with the fans cheering on both competitors. Ch'ang is first to swing, but Roxi is first to strike after blocking his attempt. She continues with kicks and punches before senidng Ch'ang into the ring ropes. He returns from the irish whip and connects with a spring board moonsault! Pamela Baxter drops to count,
... ...1!.. ..kickout! ....
Roxi and Ch'ang roll to their feet and lock up once again. Roxi uses a headlock take down to keep Ch'ang grounded and slow the pace of the match. After a bit of resilience Ch'ang fights to his feet and delivers two elbows to the gut before sprinting toward the ring ropes. He springboards off attempting another moonsault, but Roxi avoids it and he lands on his feet. Roxi leaps onto Ch'ang immediately and performs a yoshi-tonic!
... ...1!... ... ...2!... ....KICKOUT!... ...
Roxi is first to her feet and when Ch'ang makes it to his feet he hits a superkick! Then follow sit up with a super super kick that puts Roxi down on the canvas. Ch'ang celebrates and claims he is young goat before landing a running senton and making a cover,
... ...1!... ... ...2-KICKOUT!... ...
Ch'ang argues with Baxter briefly before guiding Roxi to her feet and sending her into the ropes via an irish whip. Roxi Johnson returns and takes him down with a flying headscissors. Roxi keeps her grasps on Ch'ang and transitions into a sitting reverse arm bar. Ch'ang shouts while fighting to reach the ring ropes.
Roxi dodges the dropkick attempt from Ch'ang and then applies a sharpshooter. Ch'ang writhes in pain without a glimmer of hope anywhere around him. All canvas, with ropes too far in every direction.
.....Ch'ang fights further.... .... .......... ....... ..... ......Ch'ang inches closer to the ring ropes....... ... .... ........
Mike Mason begins walking down the aisle toward ring side. The fans boo and Roxi, with hold still applied stares him down like a hawk. Mason ignores the in-ring stuff, hops the guard rail and heads for the announcers table amid the sea of ringside fans. Roxi loses her grip and little and stumbles a bit, giving Ch'ang just what he needs to reach the ring ropes and he finally does!
S. STERLING: "So what brings you here Marvelous One.
K. MINX: "Yes do tell."
MIKE MASON: "This match needed a spark to it. It was putting everyone to sleep and a gem like myself decided it'd be best to come out and shine a little."
S. AIMES: "Well, back in the ring Ch'ang is making a come back."
The pace quickes after Ch'ang lands a snap ddt and then follows up with a guillotine leg drop. Ch'ang makes a cover,
... ...1!... ... ...2!... ...KICKOUT!... ....
Ch'ang begins to get riled up and more aggressive on offense and more alert in his defense. Ch'ang moves forward too quickly and Roxi makes him pay with a samoan drop! Roxi tries to lock in another armbar but Ch'ang gets away unscathed and when Roxi tries to get ahold of him again he uses a monkey flip to send her across the ring. Roxi makes it to her feet shortly after and is knocked down by a really super duper kick. Ch'ang then heads for the top rope and attempts a coffin drop! Roxi rolls out of the way at the last minute and Ch'ang bounces like a basketball.
MIKE MASON: "What an idiot."
S. STERLING: "Roxi Johnson has her chance at victory."
S. AIMES: "Come on Roxi!"
K. MINX: "Wait, what's wrong with Ch'ang? Why are you guys not rooting for Ch'ang?"
S. AIMES: "I'm not rooting for anybody. This is an exciting match up for sure though."
MIKE MASON: "This is the worst match in CW history. And there has been A LOT of those."
Ch'ang rolls out of the ring and tries to regroup but Roxi Johnson is hot on his trail. She throws him into the ring steps and he crashes into them head first, the impact looks atrocious and the fans even gasp. Roxi rolls Ch'ang back into the ring and lands a lionsault before hooking the leg,
... ...1!... ... ...2!... ...2.5-KICKOUT!... ....
Ch'ang and Roxi take their time climbing to their feet, exhaustion starting to take over. Ch'ang takes a few weird steps around the ring leaving Roxi a little confused before he lands a kick to the midsection.
MIKE MASON: "What in the hell was that?"
S. STERLING: "I believe it was up, left, left, right, down plus left trigger."
S. AIMES: "No, no it was definitely TATSU MAKI SEN PUU KYAKU."
K. MINX: "Say that again?"
Roxi has the upper hand and she sends Ch'ang flying between the turnbuckles and he crashes into the ring post hand. Fans gasp at that as well, and Roxi just pulls Ch'ang from between the ropes and slams him with a blue thunder bomb! Roxi makes the cover,
K. MINX: "We nearly saw Roxi Johnson versus Mike Mason."
MIKE MASON: "We will be seeing myself crowned as Hollywood Heritage Champion tonight regardless of the opponent."
S. AIMES: "Roxi is giving it her all tonight."
Roxi slams Ch'ang with a reverse ddt before making a climb to the top rope. Roxi goes for a split legged moonsault and there is nobody home to take the move as Ch'ang rolls out of the ring and actually chuckles a little bit while clutching the sides of his head. "I HEAR RING IN EARS." he shouts before falling to one knee. Meanwhile back in the ring, Roxi Johnson is shaking off the pain, or trying to for the most part, and rises to her feet just before Ch'ang slides back into the ring. Ch'ang steps back and locks eyes with Roxi for two secodns before stepping forward and landing a punch.
S. AIMES: "WOW HE MOVES FAST!"
Roxi rolls around on the canvas in pain and Ch'ang runs around the ring, pointing to the fans with his index finger and we all know what happens next as the fans are going twice as crazy for it this time. Ch'ang stops and points directly at Roxi Johnson as she begins to pull herself back to her feet.
"FINISH HER!"
K. MINX: "I hate this part."
Ch'ang connects with his newly famous Cartwheel Uppercut, knocking Roxi Johnson out cold. Ch'ang makes the cover,
... ...1!... .... ...2!... ..... ...3!....
DING! DING! DING!
CUT TO:
CW's production team takes us to the backstage area near catering. Whisper and Handsome Kenny are both laid out on the floor wincing in pain as Medical Staff approach to check on them. Written in spray paint on the brick wall behind them reads,
S. AIMES: "What does that mean?!"
S. STERLING: "I sense...evil."
K. MINX: "Is it Dameon Khaos?"!
S. AIMES: "WHOA HEY! THAT'S NOT FAIR!"
Mike Mason stands over a fallen Ch'ang Dong-Geun and stomps on his lower back before lifting him up and tossing him with a big release german suplex!
S. STERLING: "To be so Marvelous that was a cowards move!"
S. AIMES: "Mason left our braodcast position and attacked Ch'ang shortly after his match with Roxi Johnson and it look like Tap Marksman is coming out to officiate?"
ROUND 3
HOLLYWOOD HERITAGE CHAMPIONSHIP Mike Mason -VS- Ch'ang Dong-Geun
Tap Marksman sanctions the match after Dong-Geun regroups in the corner.
DING! DING! DING!
Ch'ang Dong-Geun holds out his hand and tells Mason to "Bring It." Mason grins and sprints forward, hitting Ch'ang with a running big boot to the face. Ch'ang does a pretty nice moonsault and lands on his stomach. Mike Mason lifts Ch'ang again and tosses him aross the ring via a release german suplex! Ch'ang hobbles back to his feet and Mike Mason uses a stalling vertical suplex to keep Ch'ang informed of who the boss is in tonight's match. Mike Mason does a rep set of fifty push ups with Ch'ang still in pain on the canvas just in front of him. The fans boo louder when Mason jumps to his feet and begins flexing his thighs and posing for the crowd. A few cameras flash, but not many.
S. STERLING: "I wish he spent more time focused on wrestling."
S. AIMES: "This IS his idea of wrestling."
K. MINX: "He's beating Ch'ang's ass. I have no problem with this at all. It's a slow methodical beat down of sorts."
Mason notices Ch'ang rising to his feet and quickly clotheslines him over the top rope and out of the ring. Mike Mason follows Ch'ang to the outside and slams into the guard rail time and time again. Ch'ang's body flies like a trash bag into a dumpster, weghtless and effortlessly he soars. The fans gasp and we all pray for him. Mike Mason rolls in the ring and then back out canceling Tap's count before focusing on Ch'ang once more. He hoists Ch'ang into a bear hug on the outside, gets a running start and slams Ch'ang back first into the ring post. He lets him go and Ch'ang just plops to the floor with a thud. Mason taunts the crowd and poses once again before focusing on Ch'ang.
K. MINX: "Sometimes you've got to wonder if it's even worth the fight."
S. AIMES: "I wouldn't willingly fight Mike Mason."
S. STERLING: "I'd save the warehouse from him."
Mason brings the match back into the ring and drives his shoulder into Ch'ang's abdomen repeatedly. He stops for a moment and smiles before going back to the shoulder thrusts. Mike Mason steps away from Dong-Geun in the corner and takes a moment to pose yet again. "Marvelous Baby." Mike Mason taunts the crowd before turning around and being nailed by a super kick from Chang. Still standing, Ch'ang delivers a really super duper kick, but Mike Mason stays on his feet. Ch'ang slings out of the ring ropes and Mason goes for a tilt-a-whirl and at the last moment Ch'ang transitions into a spike ddt! Ch'ang makes the cover on Mason,
The crowd pops. Ch'ang climbs to his feet, attempting to pick up the pace in his favor and when Mason makes it to his feet, Ch'ang brings him down with a hurricarana. Both men spring to their feet again and Ch'ang attempts a backstabber, but the weight of Mason actually crushes Ch'ang and he loses all air.
S. AIMES: "Oh wow, Ch'ang may have just died."
S. STERLING: "That certainly didn't look good at all."
Mason pulls Dong-Geun to his feet and slams him with a powerbomb before landing a running elbow drop. Mike Mason makes a lazy cover,
... ...1!... ... ...2!... ...KICKOUT!... ...
Mason laughs and climbs to his feet.
K. MINX: "Mason is patiently waiting for his moment to strike."
Mason grabs Ch'ang Dong-Geun and pulls him to his feet before throwing him into the ring ropes. Geun flies out and Mason attempts simply marvelous but in the middle of being lifted Ch'ang connects with a missle dropkick to the chest that sends Mike Mason stumbling backwards and out of the ring.
S. STERLING: "Nice work Ch'ang."
The crowd pops as Ch'ang picks up speed and executes a springboard hurricarana! Mike Mason falls forward and crashes into the ring post. The crowd goes wild as Ch'ang picks up the momentum. Ch'ang leaps onto the ring apron and runs along the small space before leaping off and nailling Mike Mason with a suicide dive. "5!" Tap Marksman shouts just as Ch'ang decides to acknowledge the crowd and get them behind him even more.
S. STERLING: "I'd have to say, Ch'ang is very much over with the CW fanbase."
S. AIMES: "It's usually the most unique that gets over around here."
Ch'ang slides into the ring as Tap reaches a count of 8, but shortly after remembers that he cannot win via count out and he instead takes flight once again. This time a springboard moonsault attempt to the outside is stopped by Mike Mason and a powerful modified exploder suplex. Not the prettiest thing but it was effective. Ch'ang lay with his nuts resting on his chin and the rest of his body contorted against the guard rail.
S. AIMES: "Ch'ang had to think of his feet and risked it all!"
K. MINX: "Ch'ang just did the impossible."
Mike Mason puts Ch'ang back into the ring before slowly climbing to the top rope. He makes his pecks jump a few times before performing a moonsault. Ch'ang rolls away in the final moment and Mike Mason almost causes an earthquake with his landing. Ch'ang Dong-Geun crawls over to Mason slowly and drapes his arm of him,
Tap Marksman points out Mason's wrist resting beneath the ring ropes and nearly crushes Ch'ang's spirit. The fans boo Marksman once again for doing his job correctly but he brushes it off and steps out of the competitors way. Ch'ang steps onto the ring apron and waits for Mike to climb to his feet.
S. STERLING: "What is Ch'ang preparing for next?!"
Ch'ang leaps onto the top rope and is knocked down by the BDE from Mike Mason. Dong-Geun flies to the outside and tumbles down to the ring apron hitting it hard before thudding onto the floor.
K. MINX: "Ch'ang might be dead."
S. AIMES: "No he's showing signs of life."
Ch'ang grabs the guard rail and uses it as leverage to pull himself to his feet. Mike Mason grabs him and slings him back into the ring quickly and continues the assault. Mike Mason lifts Dong-Geun into the air and attempts a german suplex but Geun backflips and lands on his feet instead. The fans pop and when Mason turns around, Ch'ang Dong-Geun hits Mason with a cartwheel uppercut! The crowd pops.
K. MINX: "No fucking way!"
Ch'ang runs around, waving his index finger and we all know what comes next. Ch'ang stops in front of Mike Mason and points at him.
"FINISH HIM!"
The CW fans shout in favor of Ch'ang who then moves around quickly before attempting the heart rip. Mike Mason moves out of the way and Ch'ang only grabs the top turnbuckle pad and rips it smooth off exposing the steel ring. Ch'ang looks surprised and when he turns around he's caught by Marvelous Mike Mason's SIMPLY MARVELOUS!! Finishing move. Mike Mason is too dazed and groggy from the cartwheel uppercut to make the cover.
K. MINX: "HAHAH I KNEW IT! MIKE MASON'S THE NEW HOLLYWOOD HERITAGE CHAMPION!"
S. STERLING: "If he can make the cover."
Mason and Ch'ang both lay on their backs in pain not even attempting to climb to their feet. Fatigue and exhaustion have settled in and their bones are beginning to ache. Their all must be given from this moment forward. Mike Mason climbs to his feet and realizes Ch'ang is still down. Mason drags Ch'ang to the center of the ring and makes the cover,
S. AIMES: "Ch'ang don't die. He's the ultimate player hater."
Mike Mason gets angry and stomps on Ch'ang a few times before pulling him to his feet and throwing him against the ring ropes. Ch'ang is hoisted into the air as Mike Mason attempts another Simply Marvelous but Ch'ang uses his momentum to fall forward and latch onto Mason's backside. Mason twirls Ch'ang around a bit and recovers from before, attempting a slam but it all goes in Ch'ang's favor as he transitions it into a tilt-a-whirl snap ddt! Ch'ang fights back to his feet, still in pain and a little out of it, he stalks Mike Mason as Mason rises up. Mike Mason turns around and is hit by a super kick, following by a really super kick, which is followed by a really super duper kick that leads to another cartwheel uppercut! Ch'ang drops down and makes the cover,
...
...1!... ... ...2!... ... ...3!... ....
DING! DING! DING!
The fans go wild as money begins falling from the ceiling. Ch'ang hops up, tired but happy and Tap Marksman raises his hand in victory. Ch'ang hobbles over to the turnbuckle corner and steps onto the middle ropes before hoisting the Hollywood Heritage Championship above his head. Ch'ang jumps down and leaves ringside.
S. STERLING: "Ch'ang Dong-Geun is the new CW Hollywood Heritage Champion! How on earthaarghhh--!!"
K. MINX: "We need help out here!"
A fan in a Melody Marshall get up has Stacy Sterling in a choke hold from behind.
S. AIMES: "Who is that?"
Sully and Kelsi move to the side as Melody Marshall chokes Stacy Sterling out completely.
S. AIMES: "That's a fan! That's actually Melody Marshall! She's back in CW! OH MY GOD!!!! ITS' MELODY MARSHALLLL!!
K. MINX: "She's not scheduled to be here tonight!!"
Melody Marshall releases Stacy Sterling from the rear naked choke she has her in and hops over the guard rail!!
S. AIMES: "I thought that was a fan in cosplay the entire time!!"
Melody Marshall stomps on Stacy Sterling before ripping off the face mask and bursting into maniacal laughter.
S. AIMES: "THAT'S NOT MELODY MASHALLLLL!!!!! THAT'S---"
Britney smiles before jumping onto the announce table and basking in the hatred of the CW fanbase.
"FROM THE SHADOWS, A CHALLENGER RISES"
S. AIMES: "We're going to need some help out here for Stacy!"
K. MINX: "Why didn't her spidey sense kick in when Britney Anders popped up?"
Cameras catch the newly crowned Hollywood Heritage Champion Chang Dong-Geun, entering guerilla position with the championship over his/her shoulder. Ivanka Shrumpe is lying in wait with a microphone and her camera man.
IVANKA SHRUMPE: "Ch'ang Dong-Geun congratulations on your victory tonight, clearly from your looks you are exhausted, but can you tell us how you prepared for tonight's event?"
Chang adjusts the championship on his/her shoulder and opens his/her mouth to speak. Before words can exit he/she is knocked down from behind by Morgan Payne.
S. AIMES: "IT'S MORGAN PAYNE!!"
K. MINX: "UH OOOHHH! You know what this means!"
Payne stomps out the champion and Ethan Roerich arrives.
ETHAN ROERICH: "HEY! HEY! WHOOA!!!"
Payne is pulled away by security and Roerich checks on Ch'ang Dong-Geun with a medical team nearby.
MORGAN PAYNE : "LET ME GO!"
Payne elbows one of the security team members and breaks free. Another member of the security team reaches for Morgan Payne but Sativa Neveah arrives and shoves the security guard back. Everyone stops moving and everything goes silent. Roerich and Neveah stare each other into the eyes with security guards to their left and their right, funneling them both into a tunnel of sorts.
ETHAN ROERICH: "You two. My office. Now!"
Roerich storms off screen. Sativa and Morgan grin at one another before walking in the direction of Roerich's office.
