06.09.16 Escapade Charlotte Charlotte, NC AxxessNet Geoff Penzer: Hello and welcome to another installment of Pride! I am your host, Geoff Penzer! Tonight, the road to our next supercard continues as we march towards Bound by Honor in July. Tonight, we will see the two competitors in the main event for that show in the ring as Emily Carter, the current number one contender and the APEX Champion, Nest, will be interviewed by our very own Jessie Pederson! That, of course, will be taking place later on tonight! Onto the matches… In one of tonight’s featured contests, Prince MacRear, the man that claims the universe is totally against him, will take on one half of the APEX Tag Team Champions, Mason “THE MASON!” Mannion! Of course, we can’t talk about Mason without thinking about his co-champion, Becky. We still have no word as to how badly Becky was injured due to that baseball bat to the face from The Crimson Baroness at “At All Costs”. We hope to have more information for you during tonight’s show. Also on the card, the Old North Champion, Jensen Banks, takes on a familiar face in Keegan Hightower! These two are no strangers to each other. In fact, they each hold a win over the other. This winner, of course, will have won two matches over the other. But you’ve got to believe that if Keegan were to win, that would position him nicely for an Old North Championship Match down the road. You’ve got to imagine that Mylo Danvers, the current number one contender for the title, will have his eyes set on this one. In our main event, The Crimson Baroness takes of Mexico City’s Favorite Son and one half of the Bueno Club, Pedro Gonzales! Both of these competitors secured a victory over the others tag team partner two weeks ago as the Baroness defeated El Grandé Malo and Pedro bested Keegan. Tonight, these two go at it! With Bueno Club being victorious over Butcher and Darby and with the Baroness and Keegan’s victory, as tainted as it was, over Brute Camp in non-title action, both of these teams are jockeying for that title shot. One would think that the Baroness and Keegan would be the favorites to receive a future title shot. But a win over the Baroness tonight could put Bueno Club ahead of them. Of course, who knows when those titles will be defended next due to the injury that Becky sustained. Also here tonight, Shintaro Majima returns to action as he takes on the debuting Peaches! Two newcomers face off as Rab McKinley and Maritza Diaz are in action! We’ve got all this and more for you tonight! Right now, let’s send it to the ring where the lovely Melanie Sierra is ready to give the introductions for our opening contest. Melanie...

Melanie Sierra: Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is scheduled for one fall. Introducing first, from Edinburgh, Scotland, weighing in at 251 pounds … RAB MCKINLEY! "Wish it Away" by Psyko Dalek plays over the PA system, and once the song's intro finishes, through the curtains walks Rab McKinley, who is greeted by a cheer. As he makes his way towards the ring, Rab slaps the hands of some of the fans that reach out to him. After arriving at ringside, Rab heads for one of the corners, clambers up onto the ring apron, and then climbs to the second rope, to further cheers and applause from the fans. Rab soaks in the reaction from the crowd for several seconds before leaping over the top rope, into the ring, and turning his attention towards his opponent, as he awaits the start of the match. Melanie Sierra: And his opponent, from Miami, Florida … She is ‘THE POWER PRINCESS’ MARITZA DIAZ! “Fireball” by Willow ft Nicki Minaj fills the arena as Maritz Diaz slowly walks out to the stage in a long black and red silk robe, and a traditional Mongkon head piece. For a moment she simply smiles and looks out at the fans before uniting the belt on her robe and removing it completely. She does a double bicep pose before heading down to the ring. As she walks she high fives fans as she passes before running and sliding under the bottom rope. Once in the ring she stands in the center rattling off a series of punches, elbow strikes, knees, and kicks in rapid succession before bowing and removing her Mongkon and Pra Jiad arm bands. Geoff Penzer: And we’re about ready to get this match underway. The bell sounds to start the match as both competitors circle the ring for a few moments; the fans here in Charlotte aren’t too sure how to react to either newcomer, so they remain relatively quiet as the match begins. As the competitors lock up collar and elbow, McKinley overpowers his opponent, pushing Diaz back against the corner. The referee calls for the break, which he gets at the count of three. McKinley backs away, allowing Maritza to step out of the corner before they lock up again. This time McKinley applies a side headlock. It takes a few moments and several elbows to the midsection, but Diaz manages to battle her way out before pushing Rab away and against the ropes. She manages to catch him with a hiptoss upon his return, shocking her opponent. He hits the mat and holds his back in pain, but gets back to his feet in a hurry. But Diaz is waiting for him; she fires off several elbow shots to the face, backing McKinley against the ropes before she goes for an Irish whip. Using his size advantage, however, Rab is able to reverse it and send Maritza against the ropes. He lowers his head for the back body drop, but Maritza counters with a hangman’s neckbreaker! She crawls on top and covers with a lateral press. ONE! . . TWO! . . Rab kicks out. Geoff Penzer: Maritza Diaz able to outsmart her opponent here in the early going. Both of these competitors are making their debut tonight, so this is their chance to impress the LDFC fans and show them what they’re capable of. Diaz is quick to lift her opponent back to his feet, peppering Rab with yet more knees and elbow strikes, forcing the Scot back into a corner. He tries to cover up and protect himself from the elbow strikes, but Diaz continues throwing elbow after elbow. As the referee intervenes to break up the scuffle, Maritza runs against the far ropes. Rab staggers out of the corner in a daze, and promptly gets taken down by a running clothesline! Another cover by Diaz. ONE! . . TWO! . . Rab kicks out again. Diaz lifts her opponent back to his feet again, landing a few chops to the chest before whipping him across the ring towards the corner. McKinley hits the turnbuckles hard as Maritza charges in after him – right into the raised boot! Geoff Penzer: Rab McKinley might have just found an opening back into this match. What can he do from here? McKinley steadies himself as Martiza stumbles back a few steps. He charges out of the corner with a clothesline, knocking Diaz down. She gets right back up, though, walking right into a body slam. With authority! Diaz howls in pain, clutching at her back as she rolls around; Rab poses with his muscles flexed, drawing a small cheer from some of the women in the audience. Regardless, he lifts Diaz back to her feet and hoists up high with a vertical suplex, holding her there for several seconds. Diaz gets brought crashing down to the mat with a stalling suplex as Rab hooks the leg for the cover. ONE! . . TWO! . . Maritza kicks out. Geoff Penzer: Rab McKinley showing off his strength here; he may have a size advantage over Maritza Diaz, but he’s having no problem lifting her up high. Diaz rolls away, moving towards the ropes. She uses them to pick herself back to a vertical base, but McKinley is close behind. A few clubbing blows to the back slow her ascent to her feet, before Rab goes for an Irish whip. He lowers his head for the back body drop, but Diaz has it scouted and counters with a boot to the face! McKinley stands back up, flailing his arms to remain upright as Diaz lunges forward with a high knee strike – NO! Rab ducks under the attack and runs against the ropes, picking up a head of steam as he comes back – only to get slammed down with a Samoan drop! A hook of the leg and Diaz covers! ONE! . . TWO! . . THR-NO! McKinley manages to get the shoulder up. Both competitors are slow to get back to their feet, but it’s Diaz who strikes first, landing a couple of elbow strikes to the face. An Irish whip sends Rab towards the corner, and Diaz follows him in with a running clothesline. She climbs up to the middle rope and begins the ten punch combo; the crowd count along until the seventh punch, when Rab McKinley manages to escape out of the corner with Diaz on his shoulders. He falls forward with a powerbomb, rolling Diaz up for the cover. ONE! . . TWO! . . THR-NO! Geoff Penzer: What a powerbomb by Rab McKinley! Both he and Maritza Diaz are giving this match everything they have. McKinley gets back up to a kneeling position, staying like that for a second before standing back up. But Diaz is still down on the mat. As she begins to stir, Rab lifts her back to her feet and whips her into the corner. He follows her in with a clothesline, allowing Diaz to stagger out of the corner before he scoops her up for a suplex again. But this time Martiza drops down the back, landing on her feet. Rab turns around and is met by a stinging knife edge chop to the chest! And a second! A knee lift to the gut is followed by another hangman’s neckbreaker and suddenly Maritza Diaz has the upper hand again! Both competitors are down momentarily, but it’s Diaz who gets back to her feet first with the aid of the ropes. She moves towards the center of the ring as McKinley stands back up, meeting him with a boot to the gut. A couple of forearm shots to the face have Rab staggering back towards the ropes before Maritza jumps up with a dropkick that knocks the Scot out through the middle rope. He lands on the apron, picking himself up as Diaz comes closer – only to get a shoulder thrust to the midsection! McKinley leaps off the apron with a guillotine, dropping Maritza throat first across the top rope. She falls backwards, hitting the mat as Rab slides back into the ring. As his opponent gets back up, McKinley executes a spinning neckbreaker. Geoff Penzer: Maritza Diaz looks to be in trouble here… McKinley lifts his opponent back to her feet again, scooping her up across his shoulder. He points towards the corner and runs in, going for the Oklahoma stampede – NO! Maritza drops down the back and pushes Rab chest first into the turnbuckle! Geoff Penzer: Wait! Diaz with the counter, and she has Rab McKinley right where she wants him! He staggers back, right into her waiting arms as she grabs him for the neckbreaker – NO! McKinley spins out of it and lunges forward, clobbering Maritza Diaz with a thumping lariat! He drops down on top, hooking a leg. ONE! . . TWO! . . THREE!!! Melanie Sierra: Ladies and gentlemen, the winner of this match, RAB MCKINLEY! [ FADE OUT ]

Cameras transitioned backstage where Prince MacRear was seen standing in front of a mirror while he checked himself out. The self proclaimed Sultan of Selfies slid his index and pinky fingers across his eyebrows to make sure they were flat, put on his duckface, and turned his body to the left so the mirror reflected on his ‘good’ side.
Prince MacRear: Mirror mirror on the wall… why does Emily Carter dress like she shops at a clearance mall?
He squinted his eyes, pondering over his own question in his mind.
Prince MacRear: Mirror mirror on the wall… why couldn’t Hana Song stay behind the Great Wall?
Another squint of the eyes as MacRear turned the other cheek, gently sliding his index finger down his chiseled jawline.
Prince MacRear: Mirror mirror on the wall…. WHY IS THE UNIVERSE AGAINST ME AND WHY DOES NOTHING GO MY WAY! SINCE NO ONE WANTS TO ANSWER MY QUESTIONS, WHY DON’T YOU TELL ME, MIRROR!
MacRear moved his hands to his hips, tapping his foot off the ground.
Prince MacRear: Nothing. Of course you say nothing! YOU’RE NO BETTER THAN ANYONE ELSE IN LDFC, MIRROR! AND DO YOU WANNA KNOW WHAT HURTS THE MOST!
He took a step forward, his eyes focused on his own reflection.
Prince MacRear: For years you’ve been my only friend. My best friend, mirror. Whenever I felt down, I could just look at you and see BEAUTY! I could see SWAVE LIKE NO OTHER! Now? Now I just see some schlub who can win each and every week, but CHOKES WHENEVER HE’S IN A BIG MATCH! BLOWS IT WHEN THE PRIZE IS RIGHT WITHIN REACH! I hate that, mirror…
Grabbing a hold of the mirror, MacRear took a few seconds to gaze into his own eyes, a scowl forming on his face.
Prince MacRear: And I hate you for reminding me of that…
In one fluid motion, MacRear ripped the mirror off the wall and smashed it against the floor. Pieces of glass went flying everywhere! One shard of glass landed right next to a purple boot. MacRear looked at the boot then looks up, rolling his eyes in the process (which could have been interpreted as his own unique method of being shocked).
Aria Banks: Have no fear! Aria’s here to make an impact….Dang it, that didn’t sound good at all. Please god don’t make him call me. Do. Not. Ring. Phone.
Minutes later Aria’s phone began buzzing off the wall. Banks pulled out her brand new iPhone and answered it. The undeniable voice of an iconic Buzzkiller could be heard all the way down the hallway barking into Aria’s ear “use the goddamn book! What the hell was that? Stop talking! Don’t fuckin’ ruin this shit. Don’t make me look like an idiot, Aria.” The man did not seem happy in the least.
The Indy Darling looked over at the former Apex Championship contender MacRear.
Aria Banks: Oneeeeeeee more second MacReary hold on sweet cheeks.
The younger Banks cousin lowered her phone then pulled a notepad from in her jacket. Aria flips to the first page and starts reading.
Aria Banks: Okay. Prince MacRear, nobody cares to see your ….f**kin’....Okay that doesn’t sound good coming out of my mouth let me just say it how I would.
One deep breath escaped Banks…
Aria Banks: Let’s go….Prince MacRear, I don’t think anyone cares to hear what you say anymore. You’ve been a joke in HKW and you’re a joke now surrounded by a lower level of competition.
She flipped to the next page.
Aria Banks: This would be much funnier coming out of his mouth trust me.
The Darling claimed.
Aria Banks: You look like a special ed rainbow peacock who probably still needs a booster seat in his car. You waste of space, confused, no good waste of oxygen. Boy you don’t even deserve to be in the same building as me. It looks like your Mother fucked the Crimson Chin and ended up having you. Looks like the Pillsbury Doughboy did backflips on your chin in the oven. Looks like someone thought you up in Foster’s Home for Imaginary Friends.
Moments later Aria closed the book.
Aria Banks: Those weren’t my words I swear. All I wanna say is I’m here for that Carolina Cup.
MacRear, taken aback by Aria’s words, stood in silence for a moment before he reached forward and slapped the book out of Aria’s hand.
Prince MacRear: How DARE you say those things to me you Banks family reject! ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! WHAT ARE YOU EVEN DOING HERE?! IT’S BAD ENOUGH THAT WE HAVE JENSEN HERE, BUT NOW YOU?! WHY! THE CAROLINA CUP YOU SAY?!
Aria Banks: Yeah, I kinda wan--
Prince MacRear: Shut up.
MacRear interrupted.
Prince MacRear: I know what this, atrocious Aria. This is another sign from FABIO that the universe is against me -- only this time? Fabio has given me a sign! AND I SEE THE SIGN RIGHT IN FRONT OF MY VERY EYES, ARIA!
MacRear wagged his index finger at Aria, taking one small step toward her as he did so.
Prince MacRear: The Carolina Cup is something that never crossed my mind, but that? THAT IS MY SIGN, ARIA! MY SIGN THAT TELLS ME THAT I’M SUPPOSED TO BE THE ONE WHO RETURNS THE CAROLINA CUP BACK TO LDFC AFTER THAT LOSER BI-CURIOUS BROAD MERCY WILLIAMS LET IT SLIP INTO THE HANDS OF ADAM ADONIS OF ALL PEOPLE! AND YOU!
He took another step forward, now almost foaming from the mouth.
Prince MacRear: Don’t you think I’m going to forget about all these horrible things you said about me! I’m going to get you back for all of this, but I’m too UPSET to think about revenge right now! CIAO!
MacRear turned around, flipped his hair back, and stomped his feet all the way down the hallway.
Aria Banks: Bye? That was pretty frightening.
Aria said in all honestly.
Aria Banks: Wow he’s heated….Super heated. Think he might have even wanted to skin my scalp for a second. Oh whale, I’m still coming for that cup.
The scene zoomed in on the burn book or handy book of pre-written insults labeled “BB” as the scene faded out.

"Shit Shots Count" by The Drive By Truckers begins playing as Peaches bursts through the curtain with her arms outstretched to each side. She spins around as she slowly moves down the aisle, soaking in the crowd's cheers before picking up the pace. Melanie Sierra: Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is scheduled for one fall! Introducing first, from Fayetteville, Georgia! Weighing in at 132 pounds… PEACHES! As Peaches climbs up the ring steps she removes her plaid shirt, tossing it to a fan in the audience, before finally vaulting over the top rope as she waits for the match to start. Geoff Penzer: Peaches is making her debut here tonight. But not her in-ring debut! Some of you may know her from her time in Portland Pro. Some of you hardcore Peaches fans right remember her from her stint in Alpha as Astronotix. But tonight, she steps inside the Lion’s Den for the first time. Let’s see what she’s got! The arena lights dim as "Rhino Jockey" begins to play, before gold and reddish-orange lights slowly illuminate the entranceway. As the primal buzz of the bassline starts to build, the lights begin to flicker in sync with it, as the bassline grows and grows in its intensity until Shintaro Majima appears at the top of the ramp and walks towards the ring without a moment's hesitation. Melanie Sierra: And her opponent, from Gifu, Japan! Weighing in at 242 pounds! He is “THE STRONG STYLE SAVIOR”... SHINTARO MAJIMA! Majima reaches ringside and climbs the ring steps, stepping through the ropes into the ring, where he loosens his ring robe and standing in the nearest corner before removing his dark sunglasses and locking eyes with his opponent. Geoff Penzer: Majima is coming off a series of disappointing performances as of late. It wasn’t that long ago that Majima was not only in the hunt for the Old North Championship, but the APEX Tag Team Championship as well. Unfortunately for him, those pursuits left him without gold. But tonight is a new day and he could begin to turn things around with a win here this evening. The match starts with Majima and Peaches sizing each other up before engaging in a collar & elbow tie up. Peaches is quick to gain the advantage with a side headlock. But Majima is just as quick to shove her off of him and into the ropes. When Peaches returns, Majima knocks her down with a standing shoulder block, which garners some boos from the crowd. He then goes to deliver a stomp to the face, but Peaches is quick to roll away to safety. After pulling herself up using the ropes, Peaches makes her way from the ropes and circles the ring. When she’s ready, she inches her way back over towards Majima. They motion for a lock up. But Peaches ducks under and applies a waist lock from behind. She then turns Majima around and goes for a side headlock takeover, but Majima blocks it. So she tries for another side headlock takeover. But again, it’s blocked. Majima then goes to counter with a belly to back suplex. But Peaches is able to roll over his shoulder and land on her feet. Peaches then makes her way into the ropes. When she comes back, Majima goes for a tilt-a-whirl maneuver. But Peaches counters with an arm drag. Majima gets back to his feet, but Peaches sends him down with another arm drag. Majima gets back up, but Peaches sends him down with yet another arm drag. Geoff Penzer: I admittedly haven’t seen that much of Peaches in action before. I’ve only known her from her time spent as Dan Herrera’s valet in FGA. But right now, she’s looking pretty solid against the Strong Style Savior. To his chagrin, Peaches transitions into an armbar. The ref asks Majima if he wants to give up. But Majima refuses. Once he’s back to a vertical base, Majima takes Peaches and moves her into the ropes. From there, the ref gives Peaches until the count of five to let go of his arm. Ref: ONE… TWO… THREE… FOUR… Peaches slowly lets go. While she’s got her arms in the air, Majima takes advantage and knees her in the midsection, which garners boos from the crowd. He then knocks her down with a clubbing strike to the back. Peaches gets up on all fours. But Majima is quick to deliver a kick to the ribs that knocks her underneath the bottom rope and onto the apron. While Majima is pulling her up off the apron, she quickly grabs him by the neck with both hands and jumps down, delivering a guillotine across the top rope. While Majima stumbles back, Peaches slides back into the ring, runs over and brings him down with a running hurricanrana. The crowd cheers as she makes the cover. ONE! . . TWO! . . Majima kicks out. Geoff Penzer: Peaches with the first nearfall of the match. You know, with Hana Song having a bad turn of luck as well, you’ve got to wonder if her and her old associate Majima might link up to combine forces once more. Peaches picks up Majima, moves him into the corner and delivers a knife edge chop. But Majima is quick to take Peaches, toss her into the corner and blast her with a chop of his own. He then takes Peaches and whips her into the opposite corner. Majima runs across the ring, but Peaches catches him with a boot to the face. While Majima turns and stumbles out of the corner, Peaches runs up from behind and hops onto his shoulders. But before she can flip back and hit a reverse hurricanrana, Majima pushes her up off his shoulders. After Peaches lands in front of him, Majima quickly lifts her up and throws her down with a back suplex side slam. Geoff Penzer: Shintaro Majima with the Kurifu! He goes for the cover... ONE! . . TWO! . . Peaches gets her shoulder up. Majima picks up Peaches, moves her back into the corner and delivers a knife edge chop. He pulls his arm back before firing off another knife edge chop. Majima begins to deliver the chops more frequently until he fires off machinegun chops, which leave Peaches’ chest red. He then brings her from out of the corner before sending her into the far ropes. When Peaches returns, Majima delivers a running forearm smash that turns her inside out. He makes the cover. ONE! . . TWO! . . Peaches gets her shoulder up. Majima picks up Peaches, snapmares her over and delivers a stiff shot to the back. While Peaches arches her back, Majima takes off into the ropes. When he returns, he connects with a soccer kick to the chest. He drops down and makes the cover. ONE! . . TWO! . . Peaches gets her shoulder up. Geoff Penzer: Peaches was faring well early. But the tide has turned and now the momentum has swung in Majima’s favor. Majima picks up Peaches and tries to lift her up for a brainbuster, but Peaches is quick to block. So Majima goes for another brainbuster attempt. But again, Peaches blocks. After three punches to the midsection, she counters into a small package. ONE! . . TWO! . . Majima kicks out. After both wrestlers get back to a vertical base, Majima throws out a lariat. But Peaches ducks and counters with a school boy. ONE! . . TWO! . . Majima kicks out. Geoff Penzer: Peaches with another nearfall! After both wrestlers get up, Peaches takes Majima and goes for an irish whip. But Majima reverses, sending her into the ropes. When Peaches returns, Majima sets up for a back body drop. But she counters with a sunset flip. ONE! . . TWO! . . Majima kicks out. Geoff Penzer: Majima escapes defeat for the third time in less than a minute! Once both wrestlers get up, Majima stops her with a Mongolian Chop. He then takes Peaches and whips her into the corner. Majima then charges into the corner and goes for a corner yakuza kick. But Peaches moves out of the way. While Majima’s right leg is trapped, Peaches comes up from behind and brings him down with an O’Connor Roll. ONE! . . TWO! . . Majima kicks out. Once Majima returns to his feet, he runs over at Peaches. But she counters with a drop toe hold onto the middle ropes. Peaches returns to her feet and takes off into the far ropes. When she returns, she leaps up and delivers a leapfrog body guillotine. Peaches slips down to the floor, turns around and pops Majima with a right hand to the face. She then rolls back in and makes the cover. ONE! . . TWO! . . Majima kicks out. Geoff Penzer: Majima’s expending a lot of energy by kicking out of these constant nearfalls. Peaches picks up Majima and whips him into the ropes. When he returns, she sets up for a back body drop. But Majima counters with a kick to the chest. While Peaches stands up and guards her chest, Majima turns and heads back into the ropes. When he returns, Peaches knocks him down with a dropkick. Majima returns to his feet, but Peaches returns him to the mat with another dropkick. Once Majima gets back to his feet, Peaches doubles him over with a knee strike. She then drapes her leg across the back of his neck before bringing him down with the Overdrive. The crowd cheers as she makes the cover. ONE! . . TWO! . . Majima gets his shoulder up. Geoff Penzer: Peaches continues to take the fight to the Strong Style Savior. Peaches takes Majima and goes for an irish whip. But Majima reverses and sends her into the corner. He runs into the corner, but a back elbow from Peaches causes him to stumble back. She then hoists herself up onto the middle ropes, jumps off and brings him down with a diving neckbreaker. The crowd cheers as she makes the cover. ONE! . . TWO! . . Majima gets his shoulder up. Geoff Penzer: Peaches is getting close. She can feel it and so can these fans! Peaches takes Majima, heads back into the corner and slams him face-first into the top turnbuckle. After hoisting herself up onto the middle ropes, she takes Majima and plants him with a Tornado DDT. While he’s down, Peaches steps through the ropes and climbs up to the top turnbuckle. She crouches down while she waits for Majima to return to his feet. Once the Strong Style Savior is back to a vertical base, Peaches stands up, leaps off and brings him down with a diving cross body block… … but Majima rolls through it for the lateral press… ONE! . He hooks the leg . TWO! . . Peaches gets her shoulder up. Majima picks up Peaches and nails her with four elbow strikes to the face. While she’s dazed, Majima turns and takes off into the ropes. When Majima returns, she doubles him over with a toe kick. She then takes Majima, turns him around and delivers an inverted facelock backbreaker. She makes the cover. ONE! . . TWO! . . Majima gets his shoulder up. Peaches picks up Majima and gives him four right hands to the face before running into the ropes. When she returns, Majima doubles her over with a kick to the midsection. He then hoists her up for a powerbomb, but she counters with a sitout facebuster. While Majima’s down, Peaches steps out onto the apron and scales up to the top turnbuckle. Once Majima returns to his feet and turns around, Peaches leaps off for another diving cross body. The crowd gasps as Majima catches her in mid air, shifts her across his shoulder and plants her with an Emerald Flowsion. Geoff Penzer: Kurimuzon Taki by Majima! This could be it right here... ONE! . . TWO! . . THREE! “Rhino Jockey” plays while the crowd boos. Melanie Sierra: Ladies and gentlemen, the winner of this match, SHINTARO MAJIMA! Majima gets his hand raised while the crowd continues to boo. Geoff Penzer: Good showing there by Peaches. She didn’t back down. She took the fight to Majima. She got a ton of nearfalls in that one. But Majima was able to catch at the right moment and took advantage for the win. [ FADE OUT ]

Earlier Today
Jessie Petersen: And with me now… Josh Mitchell.
The camera pans to reveal Josh Mitchell, looking tired and weary, large Starbucks cup in hand.
Josh Mitchell: Hi Jessie.
Jessie Petersen: How you doing Josh? I understand you’ve had a busy couple of days?
Josh Mitchell: Oh, that, yeah. I was seeing a friend in a show… She got caught upside the head with a fire extinguisher. Got hospitalised… concussion.
Josh stifles a yawn.
Josh Mitchell: I stayed in the hospital with her, and, well, you ever tried sleeping in a hospital chair? Yeah, not fun.
Jessie Petersen: How do you think this’ll affect you for your match against Hana Song tonight?
Josh Mitchell: Well it’s definitely not going to make things any easier. But, regardless of being tired, I’m well rested, I’ve been training whilst I’ve been away. And this?
He holds up the cup of Starbucks.
Josh Mitchell: This is allegedly an “Annie Special”. Apparently it’s guaranteed to keep me going.
Jessie nods.
Jessie Petersen: Before you go… any thoughts on Butcher?
Josh smiles, a little bit unsure.
Josh Mitchell: Well… I haven’t seen him since I got out of the hospital. Not around the facility, around the gym, anywhere. Hopefully, he got whatever that was out of his system and…
The sound of a door opening makes Josh jump. The camera pans, it’s just a technician, holding his hands up apologetically as he realises he’s walked into the scene. As he exits, the camera pans back to Josh and Jessie.
Jessie Petersen: A little jumpy, maybe?
Josh Mitchell: It’s… I’m just tired. Really. Sorry, I need to go get ready.
Josh leaves, as Jessie turns back to the camera.
Jessie Petersen: Josh Mitchell, ladies and gentlemen. In the state he’s in, has he got any hope of beating Hana Song? And is Butcher really done with him? Stay tuned to find out.

Melanie Sierra: Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is schedule for one fall. Introducing first from Los Angeles, California … ‘THE BLACK ADDER’ HANA SONG! The horns marking the start of 'Wiping All Out' sound out like the trumpets of reveille would. The lyrics announce the arrival of the Black Adder herself. "I'm not a princess. Not a cutie girlfriend, oh no, don't you know?" Hana stands in front of the black curtain, her head tilted to the right and her arms crossed. She stares down towards the ring, smirking, and drags her tongue left to right across her lips before setting off. As she walks to the ring, she bobs her head in rhythm to the beat of the song. Outside the ring she slides into it under the bottom rope and the head bob transitions into a quick horizontal body wiggle akin to a snake slithering about. Hana stands and bobs her head until her music stops, at which point she merely waits. Melanie Sierra: And her opponent, from McLeansville, North Carolina, weighing in at 180 pounds … JOSH MITCHELL! As Ain't Dead Yet begins to play through the PA, the lights focused on the entranceway change colour with each power chord, until Josh pushes his way through the black curtain, the lights turning white as he does so, wearing a sleeveless hoodie, hood up, in addition to his ring gear. He pauses a moment in the entranceway, spreading his arms wide, before slowly setting off to the ring. He tries to focus on the ring as he walks, but can't resist a few sly glances to the crowd, a smile playing across his lips as he does do. As he reaches the apron, he rolls into the ring under the bottom rope, before getting to his feet, and jerks his head back, displacing the hood from his head. before smiling and nodding to the crowd. He then makes his way to his corner, removing his hoodie before leaning against the ring post, testing his weight on his prosthetic limb, checking it for fit and comfort. Geoff Penzer: The veteran Hana Song set to face off against newcomer Josh Mitchell; after failing to capture the Apex title at At All Costs, Hana has been nothing if not in a bad mood. While her opponent is still struggling to build momentum here in LDFC. A recent win against Chase Dupree might have given him some confidence, but Josh Mitchell is in a whole new league this week. These Charlotte fans are rallying behind Josh Mitchell as both competitors circle the ring at the sound of the bell. A collar and elbow tie-up starts things off with a standing wrist lock. Mitchell circles her, trying to break free, until Hana wrings the arm once to apply more pressure. Josh tries to break free, but a knee lift to the gut doubles him over. Song grabs him by the hair and throws him backwards to the mat to boos from the crowd! Geoff Penzer: Such blatant disrespect from Hana Song there. Mitchell gets to one knee as Song parades around the ring telling the ‘cripple’ to “get up”; he remains in a kneeling position until Hana moves in close, and she finds herself on the receiving end of some punches to the gut. Mitchell stands up, still swinging, only for Song to cut him off with another knee to the midsection. A spinning heel kick catches Mitchell flush against the jaw, dropping him as Hana slithers across to make the cover. ONE! . . Josh kicks out. Song kneels up, disdain etched on her face as she slaps her opponent around the head. It draws another boo from the crowd before she drags Josh to his feet, moving him towards the corner before bouncing his head off the top turnbuckle. Mitchell collapses into the corner as Song fires off several shoot kicks to the chest. Each one knocking out a bit more wind out of Mitchell before he gets sent from pillar to post with an Irish whip. Mitchell holds onto the top rope to stay upright after hitting the turnbuckles hard; his opponent is in no hurry to follow him in, though. Song moves slowly across the ring, driving a couple of knees up into Mitchell’s midsection as she drags him towards the center of the ring. A Russian legsweep brings Josh crashing to the mat and Hana crawls across for the cover, a forearm across the face. ONE! . . TWO! . . Josh kicks out. But Hana throws his shoulder down, pushes the forearm across his face again and makes another cover. ONE! . . Josh kicks out. Geoff Penzer: Hana Song in complete control, and she wants to end this. But Josh Mitchell isn’t going down without a fight. Song quickly moves back to a vertical base, stomping at the torso of her opponent before dragging Josh back to his feet. She backs him against the ropes, arms spread across the top rope, and fires off repeated chops to the chest. The red welts beginning to show on his chest as Josh is whipped across the ring. But he holds on to the top rope to stop himself from rebounding. Hana runs at him, only to get caught by a boot to the face! She staggers back, allowing Josh some breathing room. Mitchell moves away from the ropes, knocking Song down with a clothesline. She gets back up as Mitchell promptly delivers a body slam. As he bends down to pick her up, however, Song swings a leg upwards catching her opponent in the face. Geoff Penzer: A swift kick just cutting off the momentum there. Mitchell staggers back against the ropes as Song stands back up, moving closer as she applies a side headlock. But Mitchell is fighting back; several elbows to the midsection weaken Hana’s grip, allowing her to be pushed away and across the ring. Song hits the ropes and slides between the legs of Josh Mitchell. But as she gets back to her feet, Mitchell spins and jumps up for a spectacular jumping DDT! Song getting spiked head first into the mat, dropping down onto her back as Mitchell remains motionless next to her, but slowly moves and drapes an arm across the chest. ONE! . . TWO! . . Hana kicks out! The crowd seem almost shocked Hana kicked out, but she juts the shoulder up at the last second. Josh gets back to a vertical base, holding his ribs in pain as Hana rolls towards the ropes, using them to get back to her feet. But the DDT seems to have her in a daze as she staggers away from the ropes, right into a sitout side slam. No pin attempt, however, as both competitors scramble back to their feet. Mitchell hits another scoop slam, but again Hana gets back up. She lunges forward with a clothesline, but Josh ducks under the arm and counters with a falling inverted DDT! He goes for the cover … but Hana rolls out of the ring! Geoff Penzer: Hana Song not wanting any part of Josh right now; he’s caught his second wind and is taking the fight to his more experienced opponent right now. What does he have in store here? Song stands up on the outside, dismissing the booing crowd as, in the ring, Josh Mitchell is readying himself by the ropes. As his opponent turns to face him, Josh launches himself over the top rope with a slingshot plancha! The crowd pop as Mitchell flies, taking his opponent out before standing back up. He appears a little unsteady on his artificial leg but quickly gets it sorted before rolling Hana back into the ring. A hook of the leg. ONE! . . TWO! . . Hana kicks out. Undeterred, Mitchell hurries back to a vertical base as he moves towards the legs of Hana Song. He grabs one and stomps at her knee with his good leg, applying a spinning toe hold. It takes a few seconds, but Song manages to kick her opponent away! Mitchell hits the ropes, holding onto the top one to stop himself as Hana rolls backwards and to her feet. Mitchell charges at his opponent with a clothesline, but Song ducks it and counters with a low kick to the knee of Josh’s left leg. It’s enough to floor him, but he quickly picks himself up, only to get caught by a facebreaker knee smash. Mitchell hits the mat, clutching at his face as Song stomps at him, trying to catch her breath as she moves around her prone foe. Mitchell picks himself up again, but a knee lift to the midsection doubles him over. A short arm elbow smash follows, and Hana drops down to make the cover. ONE! . . TWO! . . THR-NO! Geoff Penzer: Josh Mitchell kicks out in the nick of time. But he’ll need to take control of this match soon, otherwise Hana can continue wearing him down. And I don’t think Josh has the conditioning to survive a long match against The Black Adder. Song argues with the referee about the speed of the count as she stands back up, delivering yet more stomps to Josh as he lays prone on the mat. She picks him back up, but Mitchell fires off some shots to the gut. He stands back up, but Hana rakes him across the eyes! The referee goes to admonish her as the crowd boo, but The Black Adder fires off the Rattler’s Bite as Mitchell turns to face her! The savate kick catching him flush, dropping him in an instant as Song hooks a leg. ONE! . . TWO! . . THRE-NOOO! Song look down at her opponent in disgust, throwing his shoulder back down as she presses a forearm across his face. ONE! . . TWO! . . THR-NO! Geoff Penzer: And now Hana is growing frustrated. Indeed she is. Song storms back to her feet, stomping at her opponent before finally dragging him back to his feet again. Josh is slap bang in the middle of the ring as Hana catches him with a toe kick, doubling him over. The fans know what’s coming as Hana hits the ring, coming back with the Adder’s Kiss! NO! Josh takes a step backwards to avoid the scissor kick; Song steadies herself as she turns to face Josh Mitchell, just in time to catch a Crimson Elbow to the temple! Geoff Penzer: The Crimson Elbow out of nowhere! It didn’t appear to connect fully, however; Hana drops to one knee but picks herself up as Josh drives a knee up into her midsection. With the butterfly hold applied, Mitchell manages to pull out the lifting sitout double underhook facebuster! Geoff Penzer: Josh Mitchell with a huge move there, and he could have the win in the bag if he can just make the cover. Both competitors are motionless, but as Mitchell begins to stir he crawls across to drape an arm across the chest. ONE! . . TWO! . . THR-NO! Song gets the shoulder up as the crowd sigh in disappointment. Both competitors are down for a few seconds but it’s Josh Mitchell who stands up first. He uses the ropes to do so, holding his torso as he tries to catch his breath. The recent exertion seems to be catching up to him; at the same time, in the center of the ring, Hana is forcing herself to get back to her feet. She’s holding her head as she stands up. Mitchell charges at her, but Song ducks under the clothesline attempt. A low kick to the knee drops Josh to the mat, but he picks himself up – just in time to catch an Adder’s Kiss across the back of the head! She rolls Josh over, hooking a leg as the referee counts. ONE! . . TWO! . . THREE!!! Melanie Sierra: Ladies and gentlemen, the winner of this match, HANA SONG! Geoff Penzer: A valiant effort from Josh Mitchell, but The Black Adder had just enough venom to put him down for the three count in the end. The referee raises her arm, but Song pulls it away before she steps over the unconscious Josh Mitchell on her way out of the ring. The crowd booing her as she goes. [ FADE OUT ]

Butcher and Darby were backstage. The camera was in focus as Butcher paced back and forth while Darby watched casually. Butcher stops pacing and holds a finger up towards the camera.
Butcher: Word has it a lot of people didn't like what I did to poor lil' Joshy. Rub some folks the wrong way it appears. Well that's just the nature of the business innit? Some people can't stomach it, I guess I can say to the masses of people who didn't like what I did...TO GET. OVER. IT. See, I'm not here to share laughs and drink a pint with most of you tossers on this roster. I don't need friends funny enough. What I want, is to be recognized at the realest man on this roster. Though Lion's Den ain't doing me any favors by puttin' me in a ring with a lass.
Butcher scoffs and folds his arms over his chest.
Butcher: I want to be perfectly clear, Mercy I don't give my left cod what your motivations are. Don't mean a lick to me what you wanna do with your meek life. They put you in with a trained fighter, which means you're just about expendable as BUM FODDER. So I hope you don't get the bright idea of comin' into this match keen on winnin' because I say you're in for a bad time.
Butcher gives a crook smirk and then wipes the corners of his mouth.
Butcher: See you out there dove.
Butcher nudge Darby who follows behind him. The camera follows them as the scene fades to black.

"Morning Glory" by Oasis plays, Butcher blasts through the curtains, soaking in the reaction. He glares around before talking to the crowd, letting out a big laugh. He slaps some hands along the way. He stops at the front of the ring as the lights strobe blue, white, and red. He goes to his right, and runs up onto the apron, facing the crowd. Melanie Sierra: Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is scheduled for one fall! Introducing first, from London, England! Weighing in at 238 pounds… BUTCHER! He flings himself through the ropes, spinning around and kneeling down, leaning on the middle rope. He looks around with a smirk, he then points at himself and glares into the camera saying something into it. Butcher stands up and marches around the ring soaking in the atmosphere. He stops, and then stands in his corner, ready to go at it. Geoff Penzer: Butcher’s never in a good mood. But you can see just how irritated he is after him and Darby lost to the Bueno Club during At All Costs. We’ll see how he’s able to bounce back here against Mercy Williams. "I don't want no fly guy I just want a shy guy That's what i want yey You know what i want yey" The intro of Shy Guy by Diana King echos through with the song kicking in with its reggae beats. Mercy Williams appears onstage with an open wide smile, soaking in the reaction from the audience. Mercy walks down the ramp syncing her movements to the beat of her entrance theme with a smile brightening up her face. Melanie Sierra: And his opponent, from Sydney, Australia! Weighing in at 137 pounds! She is “THE EMERALD JEWEL”... MERCY WILLIAMS! Mercy climbs up to the apron and spins around on her right knee down and her left leg bent and and gets her feet pointing her right arm up to to the fans. Mercy ducks under the top rope to climb into the ring and points towards the fans once again. Geoff Penzer: Mercy Williams is coming off a few tough losses herself. To Tillman during At All Costs and then against Echo Rigby two weeks ago on Pride. But a win here could quickly turn her fortunes around. She might not be in championship contention right now. But putting another mark in the Win column is always a step in the right direction. The bell sounds as Butcher knocks Mercy down with a running big boot to the chest. The crowd boos as he yanks Mercy back to her feet, whips her into the corner and follows up with a running European Uppercut. He then steps back and gives her another European Uppercut. Butcher takes Mercy and whips her into the opposite corner. Butcher runs across the ring, but he gets caught by a European Uppercut from Mercy. She heads from out of the corner and gives him another European Uppercut… and another… and another. While Butcher is dazed, Mercy takes off into the ropes. When she returns, Butcher doubles her over with a kick to the midsection and follows up with a flowing snap DDT. The crowd boos as he makes the cover. ONE! . . TWO! . . Mercy gets her shoulder up. Geoff Penzer: I know Mercy’s tough. But she’s not going to win a fist fight against the likes of Butcher. Butcher picks up Mercy, moves her against the ropes and delivers three knife edge chops. He then takes Mercy and whips her into the far ropes. When she returns, Butcher sets up for a back body drop. So Mercy counters with a sunset flip. But Butcher rolls through it, returns to his feet and knocks her down with a running big boot to the face. He makes the cover. ONE! . . TWO! . . Mercy gets her shoulder up. Butcher picks up Mercy and delivers a headbutt that sends her stumbling into the ropes. Butcher goes over, pulls Mercy off the ropes and knocks her down with another headbutt. While Mercy’s sprawled out on the mat, Butcher bounces into the ropes. When he returns, he goes for a knee drop. But Mercy rolls out of the way. Geoff Penzer: The knee misses! After getting back to her feet, Mercy sees Butcher favoring his right knee. So she runs up behind him and kicks him in the back of the leg, knocking him down. Butcher returns to his feet, but Mercy’s able to knock him down with another kick to the back of the knee. Mercy picks Butcher’s right leg and tries to turn him over for a single leg crab. But Butcher uses his left leg to kick her square in the face. After both wrestlers turn over on their knees, Butcher nails Mercy with a European Uppercut. Mercy then comes back with one of her own. So Butcher delivers another European Uppercut. But again, Mercy comes back with one of her own. She nails Butcher with another European Uppercut… and another… and anoth-NO! Butcher grabs her by the hair with both hands and slams her down face-first onto the canvas. The crowd boos as he then turns over and makes the cover. ONE! . . TWO! . . Mercy gets her shoulder up. Butcher picks up Mercy and goes for a vertical suplex. But Mercy slips down from behind and rolls him up with a school boy. ONE! . . TWO! . . Butcher kicks out. After both wrestlers return to their feet, Mercy connects with a dropkick to the right knee, which sends Butcher crumbling to the canvas. While Butcher clutches the leg, Mercy returns to her feet and delivers a stomp to the face. She then grabs a hold of Butcher’s right leg and slowly turns im over into a single leg crab. Geoff Penzer: She’s got it locked on! The crowd cheers as Mercy has the submission fully applied. The ref asks Butcher if he wants to give up. But Butcher refuses to quit. So Mercy pulls back to increase the pressure of the hold. Geoff Penzer: You can see Butcher starting to grit his teeth. He’s really feeling it now. The ref checks back in with Butcher and asks him if he wants to give up. But again, Butcher won’t quit. So Mercy pulls even further back. Geoff Penzer: Mercy’s got him right where she wants him! He’s dead in the center of the ring! Butcher is seen covering his head with his hands while he grunts from the pain. The ref kneels down and asks him if he wants to give up. But once again, Butcher refuses. So Mercy breaks the hold. She slowly begins to pick up Butcher, only to roll him up with a quick small package. ONE! . . TWO! . . Butcher kicks out. After both wrestlers return to their feet, Mercy throws out a kick to the leg. But Butcher swats it down and counters with a right cross. After a knee to the midsection using his left leg, Butcher takes Mercy and whips her into the ropes. When she returns, she brings him down with an STO. She makes the cover. ONE! . . TWO! . . Butcher gets his shoulder up. Mercy picks up Butcher and knocks him back with another European Uppercut. While Butcher is in the corner, Mercy heads across the ring, climbs up to the middle ropes and punches him while the crowd along along. Ref: ONE, TWO, THREE, FOUR, FIVE, SI- Butcher slips out from underneath Mercy’s legs, grabs one of her ankles and yanks back. The crowd boos as Mercy slips, falls and slams her face against the top turnbuckle. Butcher then pulls Mercy away from the ropes before knocking her down with a European Uppercut to the back of the neck. He drops down, turns her over and makes the cover. ONE! . . TWO! . . Mercy gets her shoulder up. Geoff Penzer: That uppercut didn’t knock Mercy out. But she’s definitely shaken up from it. Butcher picks up Mercy and whips her into the ropes. When she returns, she knocks Butcher down with a dropkick. Butcher returns to his feet, but Mercy knocks him down with another dropkick. Once Butcher gets back to his feet, Mercy delivers a double knee armbreaker. She makes the cover. ONE! . . TWO! . . Butcher gets his right shoulder up. Geoff Penzer: She worked over one of his legs, not she’s trying to take away one of Butcher’s arms to try and stop those European Uppercuts. Mercy picks up Butcher and goes for an irish whip. But Butcher reverses and brings her down with the Sleight of Hand. The crowd boos as he makes the cover. ONE! . . TWO! . . T-NO! The crowd cheers as Mercy gets her shoulder up. Butcher picks up Mercy, delivers four elbows to the side of the head and lifts her up for a sheerdrop brainbuster. But Mercy slips down from behind and counters with a sitout rear slam slam. She reaches out and hooks Butcher’s right leg. ONE! . . TWO! . . Butcher gets his right shoulder up. While Butcher is trying to return to a vertical base, Mercy can be seen slapping her thigh. Geoff Penzer: Could it be time for the Bicycle Kick? Once Butcher is back to his feet, Mercy takes off into the ropes. When she returns, she throws out a Bicycle Kick. But Butcher catches her foot. He then spins her around. When Mercy returns, she gest caught by a European Uppercut. While she’s dazed, Butcher kicks her in the midsection, lifts her up and plants her with a Sheerdrop Brainbuster.

THREE! “Morning Glory” plays while the crowd boos. Melanie Sierra: Ladies and gentlemen, the winner of this match… BUTCHER! The ref goes to raise Butcher’s arm. But Butcher while pulls it away from him before raising his own arm. Geoff Penzer: A well fought match there by Butcher earns him the duke. Unfortunately for Mercy, that’s another tough loss in a series of tough losses. We know Mercy’s tough. We know she’s got talent. But you’ve got to wonder where does she go from here? [ FADE OUT ]

The show cuts backstage to where Peaches is being consoled by her boyfriend, the 2016 Dynamic Duos finalist, Dan Herrera.
Dan Herrera: You held your own in there against one of the best LDFC have to offer.
Peaches: That’s sweet of you to say, really it is, Dan. But this week turned crappy real quick.
Dan Herrera: It’s terrible what happened to your partner last night, and now losing to Majima. Things can only get better from here...and I’m proud of you for making it this far.
Triple T: Well, well, well…
Peaches and Dan turn their heads to see ‘Terrific’ Terrence Tillman making his way towards them. As he enters the shot he shakes his head in disappointment.
Triple T: If only talent was sexually transmitted maybe she’d have had a chance, huh, Big Man?
Dan goes to confront Terrence, only to get held back by Peaches.
Triple T: That’s right, Dan hide behind a woman just like you’ve been doing in Dynamic Duos.
Peaches: Hey, Tillman. With the amount of fussing you did last time an FGA wrestler started brawling round these parts, I figure you best shut your mouth before you say something you can’t take back.
Terry Tillman has a smug look on his face as if he is trying to hold in his laughter.
Triple T: I bet you wish you were just a valet again don’t you? I mean it’s bad enough the LDFC continues to sign these wash outs and never-will-be wrestlers but now they are signing the girlfriends of has beens? What position were you in during contract negotiations? Based on what I just saw I’m guessing she was on her back?
Peaches: You calling me a whore?!
She fumes, her hand cocked back ready to slap Tillman before she calms down and turns.
Peaches: Nah, he’s probably still pissed about losing his chance at the Apex title...again.
Triple T: Heard that one before, darling. Guess you’re as good at coming up with insults as you are in the ring. At least you didn’t let any of your friends get a concussion tonight!
Peaches: I didn’t ‘let’ jack happen to her. So get your facts straight, Terry, and watch your mouth.
Triple T: My mouth? Darling you’re in the house that I built. Performing for the fans who came to see me on the off-chance I’d make an appearance. And the only reason you’rr getting this chance to revive your career - if it’s not because you spread your legs for Ol’ Bondo - is because my hard work has made it possible. So how about you show me some respect in the future and I won’t have to smack it into you.
With that Tillman walks away, leaving Peaches and Dan to glare at him as he walks away.
Peaches: What a bitch-a-roonie-doonie...

"I'M BRINGING SEXY BAAAACK." As soon as the beat of “Sexy Back” by Justin Timberlake hits, smoke smoothly pours up from the entrance ramp, masking the actual entrance impossible to see. Prince MacRear emerges from the smoke mid-sequence, a smug grin on his demeanor and jerking his hips. With a look on his face that can only mean he’s clearly enthused with himself, he does a twirl before continuing down to the ring. MacRear takes turns shouting at the sky, yelling at fans, and twerking his backside at every chance he gets while taking selfies with his iPhone. Melanie Sierra: Ladies and gentleman, the following contest is scheduled for one fall! Introducing first, from Hollywood, California! Weighing in at 191 pounds! He is “THE SULTAN OF SELFIES”... PRINCE MACREAR! As he reaches the ring, MacRear sprawls across the apron and poses, almost model like, soaking the attention from the crowd. MacRear waves the fans off and rolls toward the middle of the ring. He takes one more selfie, sets his phone down on the canvas, and in a swift, exaggerated manner, takes off his robe. Geoff Penzer: MacRear has chalked up his recent string of high profile losses to the Universe being against him. I’m not sure I exactly buy that. But let’s see how he fares tonight against this familiar foe... “House of Balloons” hits the PA system to a moderate pop from the audience. Pink lights strobe throughout the arena for a moment before finally a single spotlight focuses on the curtain. Mason Mannion emerges through it, back already turned to the ramp and the camera as he backs out into the crowd, arms extended to his sides. Melanie Sierra: And his opponent, from Upper Marlboro, Maryland! Weighing in at 208 pounds! He is one half of the APEX Tag Team Champions… MASON “THE MASON!” MANNION! Turning his head, he shoots a wink toward the audience-- many of which remain largely unimpressed-- before turning, making a display of presenting himself toward the nearest camera which follows him toward ringside. Mason yells for the cameraman to “slide!”, and Mason turns, sprinting into the ring… and the cameraman sprints after, following, sliding alongside Mason, who rushes toward the turnbuckles, extending his arms again as he looks out into the audience, music finally fading as he climbs down from the corner. Geoff Penzer: Mason Mannion hasn’t forgotten about the attack on his good friend and tag team partner, Becky, at the hands of The Crimson Baroness. During the conclusion of their tag team match at At All Costs, The Crimson Baroness took a bat and blasted Becky right in the face. That was nearly a month ago and there’s still no word on her health situation. But you can bet that Brute Camp will be looking to get their payback on both the Baroness and Keegan Hightower. As soon as Mason turns around, MacRear runs over and blasts him with the Slapnut Mangos. The crowd erupts with boos as Mason crumbles to the mat after the low blow. Geoff Penzer: Oh come on, MacRear! The bell sounds as MacRear proceeds to put the boots to Mason. He then drops to his knees before firing off a series of short-range right hands to the face. MacRear returns to his feet as he picks up Mason, marches into the corner and slams him face-first into the top turnbuckle. After turning Mason around, MacRear steps back and chokes him, which causes the ref to start a five count. Ref: ONE… TWO… THREE… FOUR… MacRear lets go before alternating between punching Mason and kicking him in the midsection. As Mason begins to slump down in the corner, MacRear switches to stomps to the chest. From there, MacRear chokes Mason again while pulling down on the top rope. The ref starts another five count. Ref: ONE… TWO… THREE… FOUR… MacRear lets go to march across the ring. He points over at Mason before charging across the ring. MacRear hurls himself at Mason to go for BOOTY BOOTY BOOTY ROCKIN EVERYWHERE. But Mason rolls out of the way, causing the crowd to cheer as MacRear crashes into the corner. Geoff Penzer: MacRear missed that one! While MacRear staggers from out of the corner, Mason slowly pulls himself back up using the ropes. When Macrear turns around, Mason runs over and knocks him down with a clothesline. MacRear returns to his feet, but Mason returns him to the mat with another clothesline. After MacRear gets back up, Mason delivers an inverted atomic drop before grabbing MacRear by the back of the neck, running across the ring and tossing him over the top rope and to the floor. Geoff Penzer: MacRear with a hard fall to the floor! Mason rolls to the outside and begins to put the boots to MacRear. He then reaches down, picks up MacRear and rolls him back into the ring. But as soon as Mason rolls back in, he turns and sees MacRear continuing to roll across the ring until he rolls to the outside. While MacRear is catching his breath, Mason slides out of the ring, runs over, rounds the ringpost and knocks MacRear down with another clothesline. He then picks up MacRear, slams him face-first onto the apron and rolls him back into the ring. After Mason climbs up onto the apron and is in the process of stepping through the ropes, MacRear connects with a double ax handle across the back. He then takes Mason, places him in a side headlock and rakes his face along the top rope to boos from the crowd. After Mason staggers into a nearby corner, MacRear turns him around, unleashes a knife edge chop and proceeds to irish whip him into the opposite corner. MacRear runs into the opposite corner. But he gets caught by a back elbow from Mason. As MacRear stumbles back, Mason runs out of the corner. But MacRear lifts him up and slams him down with the Facial. The crowd boos as MacRear turns him over and makes the cover. ONE! . . TWO! . . Mason kicks out. MacRear picks up Mason and whips him into the ropes. When Mason returns, MacRear sets up for a back body drop. But Mason counters with a running knee lift. After MacRear returns to his feet, Mason grabs him and whips him into the ropes. When MacRear comes back, Mason knocks him down with an enzuigiri. He makes the cover. ONE! . . TWO! . . MacRear gets his shoulder up. Mason picks up MacRear and whips him into the ropes. He then charges into the corner, connects with another clothesline and follows up with a running bulldog. He makes the cover. ONE! . . TWO! . . MacRear gets his shoulder up. Mason picks up MacRear and goes for a vertical suplex. But MacRear slips down from behind. He then shoves Mason into the ropes. When Mason returns, MacRear goes for a running thump. But Mason catches him in mid air and counters with a bridging back suplex to cheer and applause from the crowd. ONE! . . TWO! . . T-NO! The crowd sighs, then boos as MacRear gets his shoulder up. Geoff Penzer: Mason nearly got a three count there. Mason takes MacRear, wrenches his arm and goes for a short-arm elbow strike. But MacRear ducks. When Mason turns around, he gets caught with a European Uppercut. MacRear then doubles him over with a knee strike before bringing him down with a spinning neckbreaker. He makes the cover. ONE! . . TWO! . . Mason gets his shoulder up. Geoff Penzer: MacRear only get a two count. But more important is that he’s turned this match around in his favor. MacRear takes Mason and goes for a brainbuster, but Mason blocks it. So MacRear tightens his grip and goes for another brainbuster. But again, Mason blocks it. After three punches to the ribs, Mason counters with a snap suplex. While MacRear’s down, Mason steps through the ropes and goes to climb to the top turnbuckle. But by the time he gets to the top, MacRear dives over and pulls down the top rope. The crowd boos as Mason slips down and winds up crotched on the top turnbuckle. MacRear then climbs up to the top rope and tries for an avalanche moonsault side slam. But Mason counters with elbows to the side of the head. Once he’s free, Mason shoves MacRear down to the canvas. The crowd cheers at the sight of MacRear writhing in pain. Geoff Penzer: MacRear wanted to go high risk. But the high risk didn’t pay off. Once MacRear slowly gets back to his feet and turns around, Mason leaps off the top turnbuckle and knocks him down with a missile dropkick. Geoff Penzer: Mason got all of that… but he’s not going for the cover? Mason heads into the corner and waits impatiently for MacRear to get up. When MacRear finally returns to his feet and turns around, the crowd explodes with cheers as Mason bolts from out of the corner and tackles him down with a spear. He makes the cover. ONE! . . TWO! . . THREE! “House of Balloons” blasts over the PA to cheers from the crowd. Melanie Sierra: Ladies and gentlemen, the winner of this match, MASON MANNION! Mason gets his arm raised as the crowd continues to cheer. Geoff Penzer: It wasn’t the victory over the Baroness or Keegan like I’m sure he wanted. But Mason gets some measure of revenge with a win over their close associate, Prince MacRear. We do hope to have more news on Becky soon, as well as a return date to the ring. [ FADE OUT ]

PRE-RECORDED
The scene opens up to Jensen Banks and Mylo Danvers in the middle of one of the rings in the training center. Watching from outside, on the apron, is none other than Chris Bond, who nods at them to begin. Mylo and Jensen perform a standard lockup before Jensen quickly shifts himself behind Mylo and goes to lift him, only to eat an elbow to the face that sends Jensen staggering backwards.
Chris Bond: Careful there! I said find a way to take your opponent down...WITHOUT striking them.
Jensen shakes his head as he looks back at the smirking Mylo. Banks then motions for Danvers to make a move, getting an “ooh” from some of the students. Mylo chuckles before he charges in...only to get caught with a hip toss to applause from some of the students!
Chris Bond: Point, Banks!
The former mafia member begins to take a few steps back, a smirk appearing on his face now. Mylo quickly rolls to a knee and looks at Jensen before he gives him some light clapping of his own as he gets to his feet. The two young men then circle the ring before Jensen goes to lock up, only for Mylo to slip behind him before doing his best to lift and plant Jensen with a belly to back suplex!
Chris Bond: Point, Danvers!
Danvers moves away from Banks after successfully getting him to the mat. Once they’re far enough from each other, an annoyed Jensen gets to his feet before he looks over at Mylo, who is hopping up and down lightly.
Mylo Danvers: Tired already?
Jensen scoffs.
Jensen Banks: You wish.
Mylo and Jensen then begin to circle the ring before the two young men lockup once more. Banks tries to transition the lockup into a belly to belly, but Mylo slips out of it and behind the Old North champion. The challenger then attempts to go for another belly to back, but Jensen breaks the grip around his wrist before irish whipping him into the ropes. When Mylo bounces back, Jensen tries to take him down with another hip toss, but Mylo blocks it and tries to hip toss him as well, but fails too.
This continues to happen two more times before Mylo finally creates separation and finds his way into a corner. Banks charges in and attempts a corner splash, but Mylo moves out of the way, forcing him to hit the corner! Jensen stumbles back and Danvers quickly climbs to the top before he leaps off...only to get caught with a Bank Shot! Danvers crumples like a heap into the mat before Banks realizes what he did!
Chris Bond: God dammit, I said no strikes, and that includes superkicks!
Jensen Banks: I didn’t... it was like... an instinct or something.
Jensen quickly kneels down next to Mylo, who only seems to be stunned. He offers up his hand to help him up after Danvers shakes off the cobwebs, but Mylo looks at his hand with a frown before slapping it away. The RIP member gets to his feet and he and Jensen have a staredown before he walks off, bumping shoulders with Jensen, who looks ready to try and explain himself, only to be held back by Bond, who shakes his head.
Banks, sighing, exits the ring in the opposite direction Danvers headed in and walks off, hands on top of his head.

"Let The Bridges Burn" plays and Keegan comes out he has sunglasses on bedazzled of course. He walks down to the ring without looking at the fans he slides into the ring and takes his sunglasses off and hands them to the stage hand and tests the ropes. Melanie Sierra: Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is scheduled for one fall! Introducing first, being accompanied to the ring by Anita Handey! From Providence, Rhode Island! Weighing in at 215 pounds… KEEGAN HIGHTOWER! Geoff Penzer: Keegan fell victim to Mexico City’s Favorite Son two weeks ago. He’s looking to bounce back tonight against an old rival in Jensen Banks. Keegan knows the importance of this match. An impressive performance here, especially a win over Jensen, could put him in the conversation for a future Old North Championship match. Once the beat of “The Outside” by Red kicks in, the curtains are pulled open and Jensen Banks steps out, nodding his head, wearing his black hoodie over his head. As he bobs his head to his music, Jensen slowly makes his way down to the ring, even mouthing the words to his theme. He slaps hands with some of the fans before reaching ringside, where he slowly removes his hood from over his head and unzips his hoodie. Melanie Sierra: And his opponent, from Brooklyn, New York! Weighing in at 211 pounds! He is the reigning LDFC Old North Champion… JENSEN BANKS! Jensen tosses his hoodie to the side and quickly slides into the ring before going over to the nearest corner and climbing to the middle turnbuckle. Flashing a small grin, Jensen points to himself before dropping down and leaning in his designate corner, waiting for the match to start. Geoff Penzer: Jensen’s still on Cloud 9 after his dominating championship win over Skylar Cloud. But Keegan’s looking to send him crashing back down to earth with a defeat here tonight. There’s definitely no love lost between these two... The match starts with both men staring each other down in the middle of the ring. Words are said as the two former rivals look to start this thing off. Keegan quickly shoves Jesen back to create some space between the two. As Jensen marches back over to return the favor, Keegan locks him up in a side headlock. He really grinds on the hold, which causes Jensen to grunt. Keegan then performs a standing switch and transitions into a hammerlock from behind. The ref asks Jensen if he wants to give up. When he refuses, Keegan pushes the arm up to apply more pressure. After a few seconds, the ref checks back in with Jensen. But once again, Jesen refuses to quit. He then leans forward before reversing into a hammerlock of his own. But Keegan takes his free arm and elbow Jensen in the face. Once the hold is broken, Keegan takes off into the ropes. When he returns, he barrels over Jensen with a running shoulder block. Keegan then poses to applause from Anita, as well as boos from the crowd. He then runs into the ropes. When he returns, Jensen turns over onto his stomach. So Keegan hops over him and heads into the far ropes. When he returns, Jensen leapfrogs over him. When Keegan comes back, Jensen throws him down with an arm drag. Keegan returns to his feet, so Jensen returns him to the mat with another arm drag. Once Keegan gets back up, Jensen throws him down with an overflow arm drag. Keegan then quickly rolls to the outside before slapping down on the canvas. Keegan is clearly frustrated until Anita saunters over and massages his shoulders. Geoff Penzer: Keegan didn’t win that exchange. Maybe while he’s getting his back rubbed he can think up a better strategy. Once Keegan has cooled down, he climbs back onto the apron before cautiously stepping back into the ring. The two men begin circling the ring before locking up. After jockeying for position, Keegan moves Jensen across the ring and against the ropes. This causes the ref to go over and give both men until the count of five to break it up. Ref: ONE… TWO… THREE… FOUR… Both men make a clean break… but Keegan slaps the taste out of Jensen’s mouth. Jensen returns the favor by bringing Keegan down to the mat with a standing double leg takedown. He then quickly turns Keegan over onto his back and tries to wrap him up in a Bow & Arrow. But Jensen doesn’t have the hold tightly applied, so Keegan’s able to roll over and onto Jensen with a lateral press. ONE! . . Jensen kicks out. Once they both return to their feet, Keegan applies another side headlock. This time, Jensen shoves Keegan off of him and into the ropes. When Keegan returns, Jensen knocks him down with a standing shoulder block. He then runs into the ropes. When he returns, Keegan kips up and leap frogs over him. Jensen continues to run into the far ropes. When he returns, Keegan knocks him down with a dropkick. Keegan then poses before making the cover. ONE! . . TWO! . . Jensen kicks out. Geoff Penzer: That cockyness has cost Keegan reently. You’d think he’d learn his lesson by now. Then again, he’s the same guy that’s constantly on his phone during training hours, so I shouldn’t be too surprised. Keegan picks up Jensen, moves him into the corner and delivers a knife edge chop. He then takes Jensen and whips him into the opposite corner. After sizing him up, Keegan runs across the ring and connects with a clothesline. He then takes Jensen and whips him back into the previous corner. Keegan then takes off across the ring and connects with another clothesline. He then brings Jensen from out of the corner before delivering a vertical suplex. He turns over and makes the cover. ONE! . . TWO! . . Jensen kicks out. Keegan picks up Jensen and rocks him with a right hand that knocks him into the ropes. While Jensen tries to shake off the cobwebs, Keegan turns and runs into the far ropes. When he returns, Jensen dumps him over the top rope… … but Keegan lands safely on the apron. When Jensen turns around, Keegan takes a swipe at him. But Jensen ducks and counters with a right hand of his own. While Keegan gets up on the outside, Jensen runs into the ropes. When he comes back, he flips over the top rope and knocks Keegan down with a Fosbury Flop to cheers and applause from the crowd. Geoff Penzer: We all know Jensen can brawl. But his athleticism was on display there after that beautiful dive to the floor! Jensen picks up Keegan, slams him face-first onto the apron and shoves him back into the ring. He then slides back in and makes the cover. ONE! . . TWO! . . Keegan kicks out. Jensen picks up Keegan, moves him into the corner and delivers a series of knife edge chops. He then takes Keegan and goes for an irish whip. But Keegan reverses, sending Jensen into the corner. Keegan runs towards the corner. But Jensen runs out of the corner and cuts him off with a high knee. He makes the cover. ONE! . . TWO! . . Keegan gets his shoulder up. Jensen picks up Keegan and nails him with a right hand that sends him stumbling into the ropes. As Jensen heads over to attack, Keegan catches him with a kick to the midsection. While Jensen’s doubled over, Keegan grabs him and tosses him out onto the apron. As Keegan goes to pull Jensen back up, Jensen breaks free and counters with a shoulder thrust through the ropes. While Keegan’s doubled over, Jensen follows up with a Slingshot DDT. He makes the cover. ONE! . . TWO! . . Keegan gets hi shoulder up. Geoff Penzer: Jensen planted Keegan with that one, but it only gets two. As this match progresses and Keegan potentially finds himself on the wrong end of things, you’ve got to wonder how long it will take for Anita to get involved. Jensen has to remember to keep his eyes peeled for her. Jensen picks up Keegan, runs and tosses him through the ropes and to the floor. While Keegan tries to get up on the outside, Jensen runs back into the ropes. When he returns, he goes for another Fosbury Flop. But Keegan slides into the ring, causing Jensen to splat on the floor. Keegan rolls back out onto the apron and poses to boos from the crowd. Geoff Penzer: Jensen might have went to the well one too many times right there. You’ve got to wonder how much that hard fall took out of him. He might have knocked the wind out of himself. As Jensen tries to get back to a vertical base, Keegan pulls himself up using the ropes. When Jensen turns around, Keegan knocks him down with an Asai Moonsault. Geoff Penzer: Keegan with a perfectly executed moonsault that wipes out Jensen Banks! Keegan slowly picks up Keegan… and rams him back-first against the side of the ring three times. He then scoops up Jensen from the side before delivering a backbreaker. Keegan then rolls back into the ring while the ref continues to count. FOUR! FIVE! SIX! Geoff Penzer: Jensen isn’t moving. The Old North Champion isn’t moving! Keegan may win this by countout! SEVEN! EIGHT! NINE! Just as Jensen climbs up onto the apron, he’s met with a shoulder thrust through the ropes from Keegan. He then takes Jensen and vertical suplexes him back into the ring. Keegan turns over and makes the cover. ONE! . . TWO! . . Jensen gets his shoulder up. Keegan picks up Jensen and whips him hard into the corner. After Jensen hits the turnbuckles sternum-first and stumbles back, Keegan hooks him from behind before delivering a reverse suplex. While Jensen’s in the prone position, Keegan steps out onto the apron and climbs to the top turnbuckle. From there, he kisses index and middle fingers before pointing down at Anita. Anita returns the favor. Keegan then turns his attention back to Jensen. He flips off… … and connects with a Swanton Bomb across the back. The crowd boos as Keegan pulls Jensen over and makes the cover. ONE! . . TWO! . . T-NO! The crowd gasps, then cheers as Jensen gets his shoulder up. Geoff Penzer: Keegan connected with the Swanton, but it wasn't enough to put Jensen away! Keegan with another lateral press. ONE! . . TWO! . . Jensen gets his shoulder up. Keegan with yet another lateral press. ONE! . . TWO! . . Jensen gets his shoulder up. Keegan mounts himself on top of Jensen and hammers away with short range right hands to the face. He then gets off of Jensen before delivering a stomp to the chest. He then takes Jensen by the legs and turns him over into a Boston Crab. Geoff Penzer: Oh no... The ref asks Jensen if he wants to give up. When Jensen refuses, Keegan pulls back to increase more pressure. Geoff Penzer: Jensen’s really feeling it now! Of course, it’s not helping that Anita is screaming at him to tap out on the outside. The ref kneels back down and asks Jensen if he wants to give up. But again, Jensen refuses to quit. He then begins to slowly push himself up before pulling himself across the ring. Keegan can be seen shaking his head with disbelief. Geoff Penzer: Look at Jensen fighting through the pain! Keegan can’t believe it! He thought he had the champ down and out! Jensen reaches out, but he’s not quite there. So he continues to pull himself towards the ropes. Keegan tries to stop him. But his attempt is unsuccessful. Jensen then reaches out… and grabs the bottom rope. But Keegan refuses to release the hold. So the ref gives him until the count of five to break the hold. Ref: ONE… TWO… THREE… FOUR… Keegan reluctantly lets go. He then delivers a few stomps to the back before pulling Jensen back to his feet. He then takes Jensen and goes for an irish whip. But Jensen reverses, sending Keegan into the ropes. When Keegan returns, Jensen knocks him down with a jumping calf kick to cheers from the crowd. While both men are down, the ref starts his count.

Keegan responds with one of his own. Jensen connects with yet another right hand. Keegan throws a punch, but Jensen blocks it and counters. Keegan throws another punch. But again, Jensen blocks and counters. Jensen nails him with another right hand. He goes to throw another, but Keegan cuts him off with a kick to the midsection. He then rattles off a flurry of right hands. While Jensen’s dazed, Keegan steps back before going for the Superman Punch. But Jensen ducks, lifts him up from behind, spins and throws him down with a Blue Thunder Bomb. ONE! . . TWO! . . TH-NO! The crowd sighs, then boos as Keegan gets his shoulder up. Jensen picks up Keegan and whips him into the ropes. When Keegan returns, Jensen swings around him and locks on a sleeper hold. But Keegan is quick to counter with a sitout jawbreaker.

Jensen then picks up Keegan and hooks his arms for a double underhook sitout facebuster. But Keegan counters with a back body drop. Geoff Penzer: Keegan with the well-timed counter and Jensen landed hard right on that back. Keegan’s targeted the back repeatedly throughout the match so you’d imagine that back body has to hurt even more than it normally would. Once Jensen returns to his feet and turns around, Keegan throws out Boom, Headshot. But Jensen catches his foot. He then spins Keegan around. When Keegan comes back, Jensen steps back before throwing out the Bank Shot. But Keegan swats it down and counters with a Superman Punch. The crowd boos as Jensen goes down. While Jensen’s down, Keegan marches into the corner before climbing to the top turnbuckle. From there, Keegan flips off and goes for The Ending. But just as Keegan’s about to crash on top of Jensen with a moonsault, Jensen lifts both legs and thrusts up, kicking Keegan out of the air. Geoff Penzer: Jensen with the counter! He countered the moonsault from Keegan! Anita can be seen slapping the canvas as Keegan is curled up in pain. As he slowly returns to his feet, he’s seen still guarding his midsection. When Keegan turns around, the crowd explodes with cheers as he turns right into a Bank Shot from Jensen. He makes the cover. ONE! . . TWO! . . THREE! “The Outside” blasts over the PA to cheers from the crowd. Melanie Sierra: Here is your winner, JENSEN BANKS! Jensen gets his arm raised while the crowd continues to cheer. Jensen immediately favors his back as he heads to the outside. Geoff Penzer: Jensen Banks keeps his momentum rolling has be picks up the win over former rival, Keegan Hightower. Keegan definitely put up a heck of a fight. But Jensen was just a step ahead in this one. [ FADE OUT ]

“First Blood” plays as Pedro Gonzales swaggers his way down to the ring. He begins to high fives fans on both sides of the aisle. Melanie Sierra: Ladies and gentleman, the following contest is scheduled for one fall and it is your main event of the evening! Introducing first, from Mexico City, Mexico! Weighing in at 115 pounds! He is “MEXICO CITY’S FAVORITE SUN”... PEDRO GONZALES! Geoff Penzer: Pedro Gonzales picked up the win two weeks ago over Keegan Hightower. Tonight, he’s looking to keep his winning ways going as he looks to defeat Keegan’s partner in crime, The Crimson Baroness. The soft melody of ‘Crimson’ by Morcheeba begins to play throughout the arena as The Crimson Baroness steps out from behind the curtain; her top hat is tipped forward, covering her eyes slightly as she poses, resting both hands on the head of her cane. The crowd immediately begin booing and jeering, letting The Baroness know exactly what they think of her. She begins her slow walk to the ring, shrugging off the hatred with a sense of nonchalance. Melanie Sierra: And his opponent, from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania! Weighing in at 124 pounds… THE CRIMSON BARONESS! She climbs up the ring steps, urging the referee to hold the ropes open for her before she steps in under the middle ropes; The Crimson Baroness removes her hat and places it delicately in the corner next to her cane before she waits for the match to begin. Geoff Penzer: The Baroness has done a number of despicable things throughout her run here in LDFC. But hitting Becky right in the face with that baseball bat ranks pretty high on her list of heinous acts. What makes it even worse is that she’s shown no remorse or compassion. She and Keegan have done nothing but brag about it. But their day will come. That much I can guarantee. The match starts with TCB and Pedro locking up. TCB quickly gains the advantage by taking Pedro by the arm and wrenching it. Pedro can be seen cringing as TCB delivers another arm wrench. After the third arm wrench, Pedro rolls forward, leans back, kips up and counters with an arm wrench of his own. The crowd cheers. But the cheers soon turn to boos once TCB rakes him across the eyes. She then takes him and whips him into the ropes. When Pedro returns, TCB knocks him down with a savate kick. She makes the cover. ONE! . . TWO! . . Pedro kicks out. Geoff Penzer: The Crimson Baroness has not only been eyeing an APEX Tag Title Match for her and Keegan, but she also thinks that she deserves an APEX Championship Match. Of course, that probably stems from Emily Carter being put in the conversation for and ultimately winning an APEX Title shot. And we all know how catty the Baroness is when it comes to Emily Carter... TCB picks up Pedro and whips him into the ropes. When Pedro comes back, TCB goes for a hip toss. But Pedro steps through it and counters with a hip toss of his own. TCB gets back up, but Pedro brings her back down with an arm drag. TCB returns to her feet, but Pedro returns her to the mat with a Japanese arm drag. Once TCB gets back up, Pedro takes her by the arm, heads towards the ropes and delivers a springboard arm drag. Pedro quickly transitions into an armbar. The ref asks TCB if she wants to give up. But TCB instead of refusing, she whines about Pedro pulling her hair, even though he’s done no such thing. The crowd boos as the ref scolds Pedro for pulling the hair. After battling her way to her feet, she knees Pedro in the midsection. She then takes Pedro, snapmares him over and delivers a stiff kick to the back. While Pedro arches his back in pain, TCB runs into the ropes. When she goes back, she throws out a Penalty Kick. But Pedro catches her right foot. After struggling to get her leg free, she reaches down and gouges his eyes. TCB keeps the gouge applies until Pedro lets go of her leg. She then lets go of him, steps back and then blasts him in the face with the kick. She drops down and makes the cover. ONE! . . TWO! . . Pedro kicks out. TCB picks up Pedro, moves him into the corner and delivers a series of knife edge chops. Sen then brings Pedro from out of the corner before whipping him into the ropes. When he returns, she nails him with a punch to the midsection that doubles him over. From there, TCB bounces into the ropes. When she comes back, she goes for a scissors kick. But Pedro moves out of the way. He then grabs TCB from behind, runs and tosses her through the ropes and to the floor. While TCB stirs on the outside, Pedro can be seen rubbing his eyes before blinking rapidly. He then turns and sees TCB starting to get back to her feet. So he takes off into the far ropes. When he returns, TCB slides in and goes to cut him off with another savate kick. But Pedro ducks and runs into the ropes. When he comes back, he knocks TCB down with a flying cross chop. TCB returns to her feet, but Pedro brings her back down with another cross chop. When TCB gets back up, Pedro lifts her up across his shoulders. But before he can hit the fireman’s carry dropped into a roundhouse kick, TCB begins nailing him in the side of the head with elbows. After slipping down from behind, the crowd boos as TCB brings him down with a Fujiwara Armbar. Geoff Penzer: The Baroness is going after the arm. She might try to break it! The ref asks Pedro if he wants to give up. When he refuses to quit, TCB plants her feet on the meet and arches back to apply a great deal of pressure. Geoff Penzer: She’s really got it locked in now! Pedro has to think of something quick or else this isn’t going to end well for him. Pedro can be seen covering his face with his free hand while TCB repeatedly pulls back on the arm. The ref asks him if he wants to give up. But Pedro refuses. He then begins to pull himself towards the ropes. TCB can be seen shaking her head in disbelief. Geoff Penzer: Pedro’s trying to get to those ropes. But can the Baroness make him submit before he reaches them? Pedro continues to scratch, claw and pull himself towards the ropes. He then reaches out… and grabs the bottom rope. But TCB refuses to release the hold. So the ref gives her until the count of five to break the hold. Ref: ONE… TWO.... THREE… FOUR… FIV- TCb breaks the hold. The ref scolds her keeping the hold on a half second longer than he wanted. She claims it was an accident and that it won’t happen again. The ref goes against his better judgement and let’s it slide. A “thank you, sweetie” escapes her lips… just before she punt kicks Pedro right in the ribs. Geoff Penzer: She’s something else, huh? TCB unleashes a series of stomps to the back. She then reaches down, yanks Pedro back to his feet and whips him into the far ropes. When Pedro returns, TCB throws out a spinning back fist. But Pedro ducks and runs into the ropes. When he returns, he knocks her down with a cross body. ONE! . . TWO! . . TCB kicks out. Pedro picks up TCB and goes for an irish whip. But TCB reverses, sending Pedro into the ropes. When Pedro returns, TCB sets up for a back body drop. But Pedro counters with a sunset flip. ONE! . . TWO! . . TCB kicks out. After both wrestlers get up, Pedro stops her dead in her tracks with a knife edge chop. He then takes TCB and whips her into the corner. He charges into the corner, but TCB knocks him back with a back elbow to the face. She then comes from out of the corner and throws out a clothesline. But Pedro ducks and runs into the ropes. When he runs, he brings her down with a tilt-a-whirl arm drag. TCB gets back to her feet, but Pedro knocks her down with a dropkick. When TCB gets back up, Pedro runs over and connects with another dropkick. This one knocks her through the ropes and to the floor. Geoff Penzer: The Baroness is back on the outside. Could Pedro be looking to take it to the air? While TCB tries to get up off the floor, Pedro turns and runs into the far ropes. When he returns, he knocks TCB down with a double rotation tornillo to an explosion of cheers. Geoff Penzer: He hits it! Pedro picks up TCB and rolls her back into the ring. After climbing up onto the apron, Pedro delivers a senton atomico. He makes the cover. ONE! . . TWO! . . TCB gets her foot on the bottom rope. Pedro picks up TCB, moves her into the corner and delivers three knife edge chops. He then brings her from out of the corner and whips her into the ropes. When TCB returns, he doubles her over with a thrust kick. Pedro follows up with a Devil Lock DDT. He makes the cover. ONE! . . TWO! . . T-NO! The crowd sighs, then boos as TCB gets her shoulder up. Pedro picks up TCB and nails her with a knife edge chops that knocks her back into the ropes. Pedro goes over, takes TCB and whips her into the far ropes. When TCB returns, Pedro throws her down with an STO. He makes the cover. ONE! . . TWO! . . T-NO! TCB gets her shoulder up. After performing a scoop slam, Pedro steps out onto the apron and climbs to the top turnbuckle. He then leaps off and goes for a diving double foot stomp. But TCB’s able to roll out of the way. After Pedro lands on his feet, his momentum sends him rolling forward. Once he returns to his feet and turns around, TCB connects with a savate kick that knocks him back into the corner. TCB then heads into the corner and unleashes a series of shoot kicks to the chest. She then takes Pedro and places him in the Tree of Woe. After making her way into the opposite corner, TCB turns around, charges across the ring and knocks Pedro down with a hesitation corner dropkick to the face. She pulls him over and makes the cover. ONE! . . TWO! . . Pedro reaches out and grabs the bottom rope. TCB picks up Pedro and repeatedly slams his face into the top turnbuckle. After moving him out of the way, she climbs up to the middle ropes, grabs him and plants him with a Tornado DDT. The crowd boos as she makes the cover. ONE! . . TWO! . . T-No! The crowd gasps, then cheers as Pedro gets his shoulder up. TCB snarls. Geoff Penzer: The crowd’s trying to rally behind Mexico City’s Favorite Son with these “Pedro” chants. But the Baroness is doing everything she can to keep Pedro from making a comeback. TCB picks up Pedro and doubles him over with a Shoot Kick to the chest. She then takes off into the ropes. When she comes back, she goes for another scissor kick. But again, Pedro moves out of the way. But this time, he counters with a jumping reverse bulldog to cheers from the crowd. He slowly turns over and makes the cover. ONE! . . TWO! . . THR-NO! The crowd sighs, then boos as TCB gets her shoulder up. Pedro picks up TCB and whips her into the ropes. When she returns, he sets up for a back body drop. But TCB stops and quickly hooks both of his arms. Geoff Penzer: She’s got him in position! But before she can plant Pedro with Dom’d, Pedro breaks free and brings her down to the canvas with a double leg takedown. He then tries to turn her over into a Boston Crab. But TCB’s able to deliver an upkick straight to the face. Once she turns over and gets back to her feet, she marches over and delivers alternating kicks to the midsection and face before knocking him down with a spinning back fist. While Pedro’s down, TCB steps out onto the apron and begins to climb up to the top turnbuckle. But once she reaches the top, Pedro runs over and pushes her legs out from under her. The crowd cheers. Geoff Penzer: The high risk didn’t pay off. Let’s see if Pedro can capitalize... While TCB’s crotched up on the top turnbuckle, Pedro steps out onto the apron. From there, he springboards to the top rope, hops onto TCB’s shoulders and delivers an avalanche frankensteiner to an explosion of cheers. He makes the cover. ONE! . . TWO! . . THRE-NO!

LDFC interviewer and social media ambassador, Jessie Pederson, is standing by in the center of the ring. Jessie Pederson: Ladies and gentlemen, allow me to introduce to you the current number one contender for the APEX Championship, Emily Carter! As the drums start at the beginning of "Don't Die Digging", the audience turns their attention to the entrance way. When the guitar kick in, Emily Carter steps through the curtain to a positive reaction from the crowd. Carter smiles before pointing to various fans in the crowd. She then makes her way down to the ring, slapping hands with the fans along the way. She then hops onto the apron before entering the ring. When the chorus hits, Carter climbs up onto the ropes and holds her index finger in the air. She hops down, marches across the ring, climbs up onto the ropes and thrusts her index finger in the air. Carter smiles, nodding her head in approval as the crowd continues to cheer her on. Jessie Pederson: Her opponent, of course, will be none other than the reigning APEX Champion, NEST! “Cherry Waves” hits to a mixture of cheers and boos. After the bass drops, the APEX Champion steps out from behind the curtain. Nest has no expression on his face as he raises the APEX Championship in the air for everyone, including Emily to marvel at. He takes a second to look out the crowd, before nodding and heading down to the ring. Slowly, Nest struts down the ramp, slinging the belt over his shoulder. As he steps onto the apron, he stops and rests his arms on the top rope, looking Emily Carter dead in the eye as if analyzing her thoroughly. After a few more moments of uncomfortable eye contact, Nest steps through the ropes. He looks Jessie Pederson in the eye before glaring back over to Emily as his music dies down. Jessie Pederson: Emily, at Bound By Honor, you are going to be facing this man staring directly across the ring from you. He’s the longest reigning champion in this company’s history. There’s only one man that’s held that championship since its inception and that’s him. Along the way, he’s defeated some pretty tough competition. What are your thoughts going into the match and why do you think you’ll succeed when everyone else that’s faced him for the championship has failed? Emily contemplates the question while she rubs her chin. She then gets the mic from Jessie and answers. Emily Carter: Well first off, Jessie, I can’t say enough how grateful I am for this opportunity. Despite what Terrence Tillman, Prince MacRear and maybe even this guy right here might think... She says as she gestures towards Nest Emily Carter: ...I deserve this opportunity. I deserve this opportunity because I earned it. The crowd cheers. A “You Deserve It” chant breaks out, which brings a smile to Emily’s face. Nest looks around to the crowd chanting and cracks half of a smile. Emily Carter: I earned this opportunity through months of hard work. I earned this opportunity because I worked my way up the ladder and defeated some of the biggest names in this company. But now, I’m looking to defeat the biggest name in this company. Another round of cheers for the 2nd Carolina Cup winner. Emily smiles while nodding her head. The APEX Champion stands still, looking unfazed. Emily Carter: Nest, when I first came here, I said to myself that I wanted to be just as good as you because you were the standard. You set the bar. And it’s a bar that a lot of us are still trying to reach today. I respect the heck out of you and I respect what you’ve done for the APEX Championship. But I need you to understand something. As much of an honor as it is to become number one contender, I’m not going to settle for anything less than that championship. More cheers break out as Emily points to the championship slung over Nest’s shoulder. The wide smile is now gone as Emily stares over at Nest. Emily Carter: I’m not one of these guys that’s just happy to be here. I’m not here to be along for the ride. I’m here to take that championship from you. And y’know what? I think I can do it, too. The champion cracks another half smile. A “Yes She Can!” chant breaks out as Emily looks around at the crowd. Emily Carter: I don’t have your size or your power. A test of strength against you would do me no favors. But you know what? I don’t need to be as powerful as you to beat you. I don’t need to win a test of strength. I just need to fight my fight and execute my gameplan. And with the Emilution on my side… Emily turns and smirks as she looks out at the crowd. The crowd again cheers on the number one contender. Emily Carter: ...I believe that I have what it takes to do what many are calling the unthinkable. And that’s beating you for that championship! The cheering for Emily was deafening at this point. Emily looks determined as ever, while the champion still has yet to react. Jessie Pederson: Well those are certainly some tough words there by Emily Carter. Now Nest, I must ask you your thoughts. Jessie hands the APEX Champion his microphone. Nest takes the mic, but never takes his eyes off of Emily Carter. Moments go back without Nest saying a word. Just as the crowd finally dies down of anticipation, the Champion shakes his head. Nest drops the microphone at Emily’s feet and exits the ring. The crowd erupts in boos, as confusion radiates throughout the building. Nest doesn’t say a word, but instead kept his eyes locked on Emily Carter as he walked backwards up the ramp. Once he got to the stage, the champion tapped his belt before turning around and stepping through the curtain. Boos continue to thunder as Jessie and Emily stand in the ring almost dumbfounded.
