MAIN EVENT
Cordy Stevenson vs. Chandler Scott

The sound of an organ plays throughout the arena as the fans turn their attention to the entrance way. As "Perfect Strangers" by Deep Purple kicks in, the crowd begins to boo, jeer and show various other forms of displeasure. At around the 30 second mark, Chandler Scott pushes through the curtain as the crowd really begins to let him have it.

J.A. Aldridge: The following contest is scheduled for one fall and it is your main event of the evening! Introducing first, from Hynannis, Massachusetts! Weighing in at 245 pounds! He is the self-proclaimed “DNA of FGA” CHANDLER SCOTT!

After scanning the crowd, Chandler raises his index finger in the air, letting everyone know who is truly "number one." He keeps a smug look planted on his face as he swaggers down to the ring. After climbing up onto the apron, Chandler steps through the ropes, climbs up onto the second ropes and slowly raises his fist in the air as he absorbs the crowd's disdain for him.

Kris Cruise: The self-proclaimed DNA of FGA has drawn the attention and the ire of his fellow wrestlers since returning a few months back. He’s made it his goal to regain the FGA World Championship. But it looks like he isn’t getting the one on one match that he wanted.

Stephy Auger: No, he’s going to have to go through more than just Jimmy Page if he wants to be champion. But he can’t concentrate on that now. He’s got to stay focused on Cordy Stevenson, who knows that a victory over him would be a feather in her cap.

The lights dim down and take on a purplish hue as a light smoky mist fills the entranceway. The opening chorus to “Skeletons” by Joe Budden begins to play throughout the arena as a shapely silhouette can be seen taking form in the mist.

I got some skeletons locked in the closet (yeah, yeah)

And I've been dyin', dyin' just to find an outlet

And I'm hoping that no one finds out about it (yeah, yeah)

Wishing maybe it'll disappear but I doubt it

I doubt it

As the beat drops, the crowd gives a loud pop as Cordelia Stevenson slowly emerges, removing her hoodie from her head. She comes to a stop, glancing around and taking in the reception before giving the crowd a warm smile. She rolls her neck around before bowing her head and letting her hair fall in front of her face. A few seconds go by before she snaps her head up, whipping her hair back from in front of her face. Her eyes lock in on the ring and she marches towards it with a determined stride.

J.A. Aldridge: And his opponent, from Freeport, Long Island! Weighing in at 146 pounds… CORDY STEVENSON!

Once she gets to the ring, she climbs up onto the apron and walks around the side, and towards the middle. She turns and faces her crowd, stretching her arms out to the side and slightly tilting her head backwards as she soaks in their reaction. She gives them an appreciative nod and blows a kiss at them, before stepping into the ring and making her way over towards the opposite turnbuckle. She quickly hops up and holds her arms out, drawing a reaction from that side of the crowd as well. She unzips her hoodie and tosses it away before hopping down and making her way over to her corner as the music dies down.

Kris Cruise: 2014 didn’t end the way that Cordelia Stevenson had hoped. She didn’t win the FGA World Champion, nor was she able to help Team FGA defeat the Infinite Empire at Final Frontier. But she’s got an opportunity to kick off 2015 with a big with a win over Chandler Scott.

Stephy Auger: Only two men have pinned Cordy one on one here in FGA. Both of those men were the last two World Champions. She’s proven time and time again that she’s a tough out. There’s no doubt in my mind that she’ll be Chandler’s toughest test since he’s come back to FGA. If the playing field stays even, I don’t think it’s a test that Chandler will pass.

The bell sounds as both competitors make their way towards the center of the ring. After exchanging words, Chandler turns away, only to try and cheap shot Stevenson with a right hand. But Stevenson ducks. When Chandler turns around, Stevenson lights him up with a series of right hands to cheers from the crowd. She then grabs him and goes for an irish whip. But Chandler reverses, sending her into the ropes. When Stevenson comes back, Chandler bends over to set up a back body drop. But Stevenson hurdles over him, causing some “oohs” and “ahs” from the crowd. She continues to run into the ropes. When Stevenson comes back, Chandler knocks her down with a Textbook Drop. But instead of going for the cover, Chandler pops up and turns on his heel as he spreads his arms out, eliciting boos and jeers from the crowd.

Kris Cruise: Look at him! Instead of going for the pin, he’s in there taunting.

Stephy Auger: Are you surprised? He’s done nothing but overlook Cordy since he’s come back to FGA.

Chandler picks up Stevenson and whips her into the ropes. When Stevenson comes back, Chandler goes for a clothesline. But Stevenson ducks and runs into the ropes. When she comes back, Chandler goes for a back elbow to the face. But again, Stevenson ducks and runs into the ropes. When she comes back, she takes Chandler down with a side headlock takeover. Chandler gets back up, but Stevenson throws him down with an arm drag. Chandler gets back up, but Stevenson runs over and connects with a dropkick, sending him stumbling through the ropes and to the floor. As Chandler slowly gets up on the outside, Stevenson hops up and down as she waves her arm up, trying to rile up the crowd.

Stephy Auger: She’s setting up for something, Kris...

As the fans begin to stand up, Stevenson runs into the ropes. When she comes back, she motions for a suicide plancha. But she puts on the breaks as Chandler scurries out of the way, causing an outbreak of boos from the crowd.

Kris Cruise: And there goes Chandler, running away!

After he heads up the steps, Chandler wipes his feet off on the apron before stepping back into the ring. He begins to circle the ring before stopping. He sizes Stevenson up before inching his way over towards her. Chandler goes to initiate a lock up. But Stevenson ducks under and applies a waist lock from behind. Chandler quickly reaches back, catching Stevenson in the jaw with an elbow. He then performs a standing switch and reverses into a waist lock of his own. Stevenson reaches down and tries to pry Chandler’s arms from around her. But it’s to no avail. He then hoists her up and throws her down with a waist lock takedown. After Stevenson pushes herself up onto all fours, Chandler hoists her back up to her feet before throwing her back down with another waist lock takedown. After spinning around across Stevenson’s back, he applies a side headlock. But Stevenson slips out and reverses into a hammerlock.

The ref asks Chandler if he wants to give up. But Chandler refuses to quit. As he battles his way back up to his feet, he reaches back and grabs Stevenson by the hair. The crowd boos as Chandler yanks her forward, throwing her down to the canvas with a modified snapmare. As Stevenson gets back up, Chandler grabs her and takes her down with the traditional snapmare. He quickly applies a neck crank.

Kris Cruise: Chandler now looking to snap the neck of Cordy Stevenson.

Stephy Auger: I’m a bit surprised Chandler’s looking to apply a submission already. Though she has gotten the better of him so far, so maybe slowing down the pace is good for him.

The ref kneels down and asks Stevenson if she wants to give up. But Stevenson refuses to quit. So Chandler quickly jerks the neck, sending a quick jolt of pain throughout Stevenson’s spine. The ref asks her again if she wants to give up. But Stevenson still refuses to quit.

Crowd: CORDY! CORDY! CORDY! CORDY!...

Stevenson slowly turns over onto her knees before getting up to her feet. She then nails Chandler four times in the midsection, breaking the hold. While Chandler is doubled over, Stevenson runs into the ropes. When she comes back, Chandler knocks her down with a lariat takedown. The crowd boos as he crawls over and makes the cover.

Chandler picks her up and whips her into the ropes. When Stevenson comes back, Chandler goes for a back body drop. But Stevenson is somehow able to land on her feet, drawing “oohs” from the crowd before quickly running back into the ropes. When Chandler turns around, Stevenson tries to slide through his legs. But Chandler reaches down and grabs her by the hair with both hands.

Stephy Auger: Oh no. This doesn’t look good...

After slowly dragging Stevenson back to her feet, he shakes her violently as he trash talks her. But Stevenson swats his hands from off of her before connecting with a step-up enzuigiri. She turns Chandler over and makes the cover.

After pushing him into the corner, she unleashes a series of knife-edge chops that echo throughout the arena. She then takes Chandler and whips him into the opposite corner. Chandler ricochets out of the corner and goes after Stevenson with a running forearm. But she leap frogs over him. When Chandler turns around, he turns into a spinning heel kick to cheers from the crowd. She makes the cover.

Kris Cruise: Another nearfall by Cordy. She doesn’t get the three count. But this has got to be frustrating Chandler.

Stephy Auger: With the way he was talking earlier, he thought he was just going to mow over Cordy. But that has not been the case in this one.

Stevenson picks up Chandler and goes for an irish whip. But Chandler reverses, sending her into the ropes. When Stevenson comes back, Chandler connects with a kitchen sink, sending her flipping over his knee and down to the mat.

She then swats Chandler’s hand from off her, grabs him and slams his head into the top turnbuckle. As Chandler stumbles back, Stevenson goes to climb the turnbuckles. But Chandler runs back into the corner, runs up onto the middles ropes, grabs Stevenson and jumps off, delivering an avalanche samoan drop to boos from the crowd. He reaches back and hooks the leg…

Kris Cruise: Samoan Drop all the way down to the canvas! That just might be it...

TH-NO!

Stevenson gets her shoulder up.

Chandler picks up Stevenson and bends her over in front of her, calling for the Valediction.

Chandler lifts Stevenson up onto his shoulders and spins. But just before he’s about to throw her down, Stevenson counters with a hurricanrana.

Stephy Auger: She escapes!

Both grapplers try to get back to a vertical base. But Stevenson is the first to her feet and takes advantage by delivering a running knee lift, sending Chandler stumbling back towards the ropes. She then runs into the opposite set of ropes. When Stevenson comes back, Chander side steps, grabs her by the back of the neck and tosses her over the top rope…

… but Stevenson reaches down, grabs the top rope and pulls herself back onto the apron. Chandler sees this and runs over to knock her off. But Stevenson grabs the top rope and drops down, sending Chandler tumbling to the outside.

Kris Cruise: Chandler falls hard to the floor! Is he going to be able to get back up?

After rolling herself back into the ring, Stevenson gets up and runs into the ropes as Chandler gets up on the outside. When Chandler turns around, he turns into a suicide plancha from Stevenson.

Crowd: CORDY! CORDY! CORDY! CORDY!

Stephy Auger: Cordy takes out Chandler with a huge dive to the floor! He looks like he’s out!

Stevenson mounts herself on top of Chandler and hammers away with a series of right hands.

Kris Cruise: She’s really letting him have it now!

Stevenson picks up Chandler and rolls him back into the ring. As Chandler rolls towards the center of the ring, Stevenson walks along the apron and begins to scale the turnbuckles.

Kris Cruise: That’s got to be it right there!

ONE!

Stevenson gets her shoulder up to cheers from the crowd.

Stephy Auger: Cordy’s still in it! She got her shoulder up!

While Chandler is dazed, Stevenson gets up, grabs him and whips him into the corner. Stevenson then runs towards the corner and connects with a handspring back elbow. As Chandler stumbles from out of the corner, Stevenson takes off into the ropes. When she comes back, Chandler delivers a tilt-a-whirl sidewalk slam to boos from the crowd. He hooks the leg.

.
THRE-NO!

Stevenson gets her shoulder up, causing the crowd to explode in cheers.

After picking her up and throwing her down with a scoop slam, Chandler goes over and turns Stevenson into a Boston Crab.

Kris Cruise: He’s got the Boston Crab locked in.

Stevenson can be seen cringing in pain as she sits up on her forearms.

Stephy Auger: C’mon, Cordy. You can do this…

The ref asks Stevenson if she wants to give up. But Stevenson refuses to throw in the towel. So this causes Chandler to pull back, increasing the pressure.

Kris Cruise: You can see the agony written all over her face.

Stephy Auger: She doesn’t want to give up. But tapping out would stop the pain from getting nay worse.

Stevenson tugs at her hair as she tries to fight through the pain. The ref kneels down and asks her again if she wants to give up. Stevenson responds by shaking her head “no.”

Kris Cruise: Chandler can be heard yelling at her to tap. But Cordy’s doesn’t want to give in to the pressure. She wants to make it to the ropes.

Stevenson places her palms flat on the canvas and slowly pushes herself up off the canvas. She begins to slowly walk towards the ropes as Chandler can’t believe it.

Stephy Auger: She’s doing it, Kris! She’s pulling herself to the ropes!

Chandler shakes his head in disbelief as Stevenson continues to pull herself towards the ropes. She reaches out… and grabs the bottom rope to an explosion of cheers. But Chandler won’t let go of the hold.

Ref: ONE… TWO… THREE… FOUR…

Chandler reluctantly lets go.

As Stevenson slowly gets up on her knees, Chandler slaps her across the back of the head. As Stevenson tries to pull herself up using the ropes, Chandler again slaps her across the back of the head, casuing the crowd to erupt in boos. He then steps back and lunges forward, connecting with a high knee lift that sends her through the ropes and to the apron. After pulling Stevenson up on the apron, Chandler goes for a suplex back into the ring. But Stevenson slips down from behind and rolls him up.

ONE!

.

As both grappler get back up to their feet, Chandler rocks Stevenson with a right hand. But Stevenson is able to shake it off and blasts him in the thigh with a shoot kick.

Kris Cruise: What’s she doing here?

After slowly getting back up to her feet, Stevenson steps through the ropes and begins to climb the turnbuckles. Once she gets to the top, she’s about to flip off for the Beauty School Dropout. But Chandler rolls to the outside.

Stephy Auger: What’s he doing?

Chandler gets up and begins to walk up the aisle, eliciting boos from the crowd.

Kris Cruise: He’s not leaving, is he?

Stephy Auger: I think he is! And the referee’s already up to “two.”


Ref: …………………………. THREE! ……………………………………. FOUR!

Stevenson drops down to the canvas. She turns to the aisle and calls Chandler back in the ring. But Chandler turns and walks backwards up the aisle.

Ref: ………………………… FIVE!................................... SIX!

Stevenson motions for him to come back. But Chandler just shakes his head as he mouths something at her. Stevenson then makes the “talk talk talk” motion with her hand.

Ref: ………………. NINE…………………….. TEN!

The crowd erupts in boos as the ref calls for the bell.

J.A. Aldridge: Here is your winner by countout, CORDY STEVENSON!

The ref goes to raise her hand. But Cordy pulls it away, obviously upset at the display of cowardice from her opponent.

Kris Cruise: Cordy gets the win. But this isn’t the way she wanted to win this match. Not at all.

Stephy Auger: What a shame.

[FGA Office]

The shows cuts backstage to where Spencer Burke is standing by with the ‘Tenacious Little Bastard’ Dom Harter. The former World champion isn’t dressed to wrestle, obviously, instead he’s wearing his navy ‘Fratboy Assassin’ t-shirt (available at the FGA merchandise stands) and a pair of light denim jeans. The facial bruising and swelling has significantly reduced since we last him at Final Frontier.

Burke: Ladies and gentlemen, I’m here with the former FGA World Champion, Dom Harter. Dom, two weeks ago at Final Frontier you were defeated by Malcolm Drake in what’s being heralded as an early match of the year candidate for 2015-

At the mention of defeat, Harter glares at the interviewer out of the corner of his eyes.

Burke: -but the question on everybody’s lips is: where does The Tenacious Little Bastard go from here? Obviously we saw you confront the Pride champion, Sunshine Scandalous Tony Carmine--

Dom Harter: That’s the question everybody is asking? Because last I heard everybody was wanting to know when Malcolm Drake was going to get his World title shot. But that’s ok, Burke, nobody expects you to have your finger on the pulse of the fans.

Harter shuffles on the spot, treading gingerly to try and cover his injured hip, as he turns to face Spencer Burke.

Dom Harter: At Final Frontier, Malcolm Drake got exactly what he wanted. This feud between me and him, it’s dead. And to each and every one of the fans here in the Lowell Memorial Auditorium and every other FGA fan out there - you can hold him in high reverence and bask in his brilliance just like I used to do. He’s yours now. Because now we’ve started a new year and it’s time for new goals.

Burke: Grand slam?

Dom Harter: That’s right, Burke. You see, over the last two years I have achieved many things, won titles and racked up some mighty accolades too. Over in SCW I managed to capture the Heritage, Vegas and Global titles in little over a year. That means I just have to become the tag champs there and I’ve got myself a grand slam. And right here, in FGA, I was one of the inaugural tag champs. I’m a two-time FGA Champion. And for those of you keeping track at home, that means when I become the Pride champion, I become the first ever person to win the Triple Crown here. And after that, when I defeat whichever prole is holding the Legacy championship and take that belt from them, I’ll have myself a Gran--

Voice: You won’t have yourself shit. You hear me? SHIT!

The camera pans over to the Pride Champion Sunshine Scandalous Tony Carmine, still sweaty and slightly winded from his match against Dan. Tony’s bedazzled title is around his waist, his face annoyed and fatigued.

Sunshine Tony: Championship here. Championship there. Trophy here. Trophy there. Let me make something perfectly clear Dommy Cakes. No one. Not I. Not Bad Bama Burke. NO ONE cares. Your list of XBOX Achievements don’t impress the Scandalous One because it’s all you have. All you can talk about is what you USED to do and what you’ve DONE in the past two years. Let’s look at the past two months.

Tony sarcastically frowns up his face.

Sunshine Tony: The man who made you decided he didn’t want to watch after his Bastard child anymore. You cried, yelled, attack...and lost. Twice. This was AFTER Jared James made you look like light-work. This was AFTER you failed to defend the World title against a couple of jokes like Dan Herrera and Jimmy Page. Worst part about that is you got flattened by THE LESSER OF THE TWO EVILS!

Shaking his head, Tony looks over at Spencer.

Sunshine Tony: Can you believe this fucking moron Bama? He actually thinks he can lay claim to what’s around my waist. The most important thing you’ve done lately was win a tag team match and that was only because SUNSHINE TONYYYYY did the heavy lifting. Have several seats.

Dom Harter: You ... did the heavy lifting?

Dom asks before chuckling to himself.

Dom Harter: Something has addled your brain, Tony, you're not thinking straight. Maybe I need Chandler to drag my ass out of the fire or I need to toss Annie Zellor around like a rag doll to impress you ... But right now - let me make this real clear - this isn't personal between you and I. You have something I want, that's it.

Harter smiles wryly as he and Tony locks eyes, neither man willing to budge an inch.

Dom Harter: If you want to make it a personal issue, I've got no problems with that.

Tony just laughs.

Sunshine Tony: Nothing I do in this business is ever personal. You have something I want too.

He starts to walk away before turning around once more.

Sunshine Tony: But I don’t need to break you down completely to get it. It will naturally fall into my hands with time. Toodles for now.

The Pride Champ blows Harter and Burke a kiss before turning around and moving along down the hallway. Harter watches him leave before turning back to Burke.

Dom Harter: I'm going to enjoy taking that title belt from him...

He says before walking away in the opposite direction as the show cuts back to ringside.

[FGA Office]

The lights in the arena dim as Protovision by Kavinsky hits and all four members of the Infinite Empire make their entrance to a huge chorus of boos and jeers.

Stephy Auger: And there they are...

Kris Cruise: As much as I hate to admit it, they did make good on their promise of walking out of Final Frontier with a victory.

Stephy Auger: By cheating! That was just a load of crap.

The Infinite Empire members all enter the ring as Dante retrieves a microphone from a stagehand before entering the ring himself. Everyone in the arena is heated. The boos are raining down on the Infinite Empire as Dante addresses them all.

Dante Anglais: I guess you can say we got all we wanted for Christmas...

Dante grins like a Cheshire cat, incredibly proud of himself.

Dante Anglais: I know, I get it, you're unhappy about your precious little FGA team being unable to overcome adversity and defeat the big bad Infinite Empire.

Dante lowers his head, looking somewhat disappointed.

Dante Anglais: Well, sometimes life just sucks.

He snarls at the fans who boo him in return.

Dante Anglais: We don't always get what we want. I wanted to best Dan Herrera in a fair wrestling contest. I wanted to go toe to toe with this man but nooooo. Dan had to cheat.

Stephy Auger: DAN HAD TO CHEAT?!?!

Dante Anglais: He went for my eyes, tried to blind me. What kind of example does that set when you're supposed hero wants to try and rip someone's eye out? A terrible one!

Dante looks incredibly distressed by the thought that people would put their faith into such a dastardly human being.

Dante Anglais: So I had to take action. I had to call in the cavalry for risk of losing my eye sight. My good friend, Aidan, was my savior.

He pats Aidan on the back and the two share a very "macho, un-touchy pat-on-the-back" hug.

Dante Anglais: THAT is a man you can look at and call a true hero.

Aidan takes the applause in an incredibly humble. Probably because there is no applause...

Dante Anglais: Let's not forget Palmer and Hanahara. They both battled hard throughout that contest, warriors to the end and it was all enough to come together to allow me to get the victory.

All three members of the Infinite Empire look at Dante slightly curiously as he seems slightly oblivious of the fact that the whole world doesn't actually revolve around him.

Dante Anglais: It's not all about us though. We know Dan Herrera has pussed out and I'm pretty sure I don't have to explain to you why Cindy is a non-factor now.

He chuckles to himself before continuing.

Dante Anglais: So I guess... Cordelia Stevenson, come on down!

It's a matter of a few seconds before Skeletons by Joe Budden hits and Cordelia Stevenson makes her way out with a microphone in her hand.

Kris Cruise: Ask and you shall receive.

Stephy Auger: Cordy has been through a lot these last few weeks. Between Cindy turning on her and stabbing the FGA team in the back to Jimmy Page, I'm sure Dante being an egotistical douche isn't the sort of thing she's willing to listen to, stand idly by.

With four members of the Infinite Empire in the ring, you can understand that she's not exactly looking to race down to the ring right now. Instead, she addresses the group from outside the ring.

Cordelia Stevenson: You know, I knew it was only a matter of time before you’d make your way out here to bump your gums, Dante; before you and your walking peanut gallery came out here to celebrate a half-assed job. I find it incredibly amusing that you say you had to call in the calvary out of fear of “losing your eye sight.”

She says, using air quotes as she repeats his terrible excuse. A soft chuckle escapes her lips.

Cordelia Stevenson: Because it’s clear to me, and to everyone here, that you called in the Calvary as soon as you saw just exactly who you were going to be up against. As soon as you saw that FGA wouldn’t back down, that we wouldn’t acquiesce to your every demand; that we wouldn’t just bow and worship you as the God you imagine yourself to be. I can’t help but to believe that the so-called calvary was called in the minute the sides became equal. What happened between Cindy and Dan? Well, that was just a bonus gift that worked in your favor, but you didn’t know that was coming, and I already know you had Aidan in place to save your ass. Well you know what, Dante? Who’s going to save your ass the next time? Excuse me for believing that someone with your lack of… charm, has a limited number of people he can call on for help; because you’re going to need it. You should know better than to celebrate a battle, when there is still a war to be won, because this isn’t over! FGA…. we’re not backing down!

The crowd gives a loud pop.

Cordelia Stevenson: I am still here. I am still fighting, and you’re going to WISH, that you had put me away when you had the chance!

Cordelia jumps up onto the ring apron and climbs into the ring, standing face to face with Dante, completely unfazed by the fact four members of the Infinite Empire out number one Cordelia Stevenson heavily. Dante looks a little taken aback as he just laughs.

Dante Anglais: Are you crazy Cordelia? Do you not realize that four vastly outnumber one?

Cordelia Stevenson: I do and, quite frankly, I don't give a damn. You don't intimidate me. None of you do.

All four members of the Infinite Empire don't know what to make of this.

Dante Anglais: You're not scared of us?

Cordelia shakes her head.

Dante Anglais: Then you're an idiot.

Dante looks deadly serious now.

Dante Anglais: But it's not really us that you should be worried about or scared of. It's your own decisions.

Cordelia looks a little confused.

Dante Anglais: What? Was it not you who decided to trust Cindy?

OOOOOOOOOOOH!!!

Dante Anglais: One of your only friends stabbed you in the back? I guess that says a lot about your worth.

In a furious rage, Cordy charges right at Dante when Tomoko comes flying out of nowhere, catching her with a Ryder Kick! Dante just laughs as Stevenson clutches at her face, surrounded by four members of the Infinite Empire when, from the back, the new tag team champions make their way out to the ring to a big cheer, Sterling and Sullivan quickly slide into the ring and the numbers are a little more even as The Spitfires flurry gives them a slight upper hand over the Empire who clearly were not expecting this. It's not long, however, before things get to be too much for the Spitfires as the mass of onslaught from the vicious and violent Infinite Empire becomes too much for them to fight off.

The numbers game is just too much for these FGA guys!

The entire crowd is hot at the Infinite Empire as they just beat down on the Spitfires and Cordy when Fault Line by August Burns Red hits and the entire place comes unglued as, from the back comes...



Riley Owens!!

Riley races down the ramp, sliding into the ring and quickly firing off on each member of the Infinite Empire that comes his way!

Kris Cruise: Riley Owens!! He's come to help out the company he fights so proudly for!!

Stephy Auger: And now the numbers are even, the Infinite Empire aren't doing so good.

Owens clotheslines Tomoko and blasts RJ with a stiff kick to the face before Collins cuts him off with a flurry of blows as Dante barks out orders to him. Aidan whips Riley off the ring ropes and goes for a clothesline but Riley ducks and comes back off the opposite ropes, nailing a big dropkick. Aidan and Dante quickly slip out of the ring. Neither of them want any more of Riley Owens as they help their teammates out of the ring.

Kris Cruise: The Infinite Empire look like they're running scared.

Stephy Auger: They are! None of them want any of Riley Owens.

Riley stands tall in the ring as he helps Cordelia to her feet as The Spitfires back them up and the four FGA competitors stand tall in the ring while the Infinite Empire back off, running scared as we cut to black.
