We return to ringside where “Can You Feel It?” is playing over the PA system. The audience is responding with a mixed reaction as we see Evan Envi at ringside, handing out black shirts which read
CAMP ENVI INTERNATIONAL. Envi makes his way to the announce table after several moments, slipping into the seat next to Geoff Penzer, sliding on a headset.
Evan Envi: What up, what uuuup!
Geoff Penzer: It seems that moments ago, you were dismissed by one of the teams that’s about to make their way out here. I--
Evan Envi: Who? Logan and Ashlyn? Please. They didn’t know what they were saying, Geoff. I’m out here to drop some knowledge on you about all four of these Grapplers, alright? And maybe-- MAYBE-- give you some intel on the newest members of Camp Envi International.
Geoff Penzer: Hm.
Evan’s music fades and Melanie Sierra begins her announcements.
Melanie Sierra: The following contest is a Second Round match in the Dynamic Duos Tag Team Tournament!
The lights in the arena slowly fade to darkness. While this hushes some members of the audience, others grow loud in anticipation. “Deadcruiser” hits the PA system and a silver-blue strobe begins to dance near the top of the ramp, revealing a feminine figure with a hoodie thrown over wrestling gear, back turned toward the ring. As the lights in the arena begin to systematically brighten, it becomes clear that the figure is Ashlyn De Luca. The arena plunges into darkness once more, earning a cheap pop from the live audience for theatrics-- before all of the lights scream to life, casting a blinding glow down on the pair at the top of the ramp. While Ashlyn De Luca now faces the ring, arms still above her head, our camera swing to reveal Logan standing with his back to hers, arms held out straight to the side. Ashlyn lowers her arms, pointing a two-handed “finger gun” toward the camera with a smirk, though she abandons it as she and the hooded Logan Alexander abruptly part, marching toward the ring with a purpose.
Melanie Sierra: Introducing first, at a combined weight of three hundred and sixty-eight pounds, the team of Logan Alexander and the Shooting Star Wrestling Alliance World Champion, Ashlyn De Luca… they are… CHAAAAOOOOTICCCCS!
Evan Envi: I’ve teamed with both Ash and Logan before, y’know. And I’d like to say we were pretty awesome. But I was the common denominator. So it was mainly me, I think!
Geoff Penzer: Insightful.
Reaching the bottom of the ramp, Ashlyn pauses just once to survey the audience while Logan walks to the ring apron, stepping inside. Ashlyn ever-so-faintly smiles into the audience again before rushing to the barricade. Our hard camera takes over, with Ashlyn leaping onto the barricade, arms wide as she screams back out into the raucous audience. Behind her, Logan mounts the bottom-and-middle ropes, arms held to his side in a similar pose. Ashlyn drops from the barricade, sliding into the ring beneath the ropes and Logan, hopping to her feet on the opposite side of the ring, screaming out into the other side of the audience as they rise to their feet. Logan drops down from the ropes and bumps forearms with De Luca in the center of the ring as they pass each other, mounting opposite corners to look out into the masses. The Chaotics remove their hoodies, tossing them simultaneously into the crowd as their music fades.
Melanie Sierra: And their opponents…
For a moment there is silence, then what sounds like a static hiss before the first swell of her theme, Cold by Static-X comes up. The lights dim except for two strong white lights towards the big screen, and the bass line of her theme has obviously been augmented to seem more like an arena-wide heartbeat, a pulse of energy flowing across the audience.
"We kiss...the stars.
We writhe...We are..."Aurora appears at the top of the ramp, the vid behind her on the big screen shows several of her more high impact spots and counters along with all of her finishers on display, starting with the Ghostly Kiss and ending with the Carpathian Cross. Pure white crisp strobes flash over her, lighting her up from her boots to the collar of her black leather jacket, gleaming off of the decorations she's placed on it and
blazing off the face of her Phoenix Tag Team Championship belt. She strokes her fingers over the belt for a moment as a soft voice breaks through the music, Aurora's voice apparently.
Voice: "We are..."The white lights on the screen go black, and for a moment there is silence again, then the music comes back swelling up louder than before on the down beat of the chorus, when the word "Cold" is sung she then takes two charging steps towards the ring, stopping to raise her belt over her head. As the chorus pumps through the PA system she heads with a purpose towards the ring.
"Cold, we're so cold.
We are...so cold, we're so cold.
Cold, we're so cold.
We are...so cold, we're so cold."When she hits the ring apron she puts belt into one hand then jumps to grab the middle rope, using her momentum to bring her right up on the apron and turning to face the ramp, arms going up over her head. She then hooks one arm over the top rope and does a slow backflip into the ring before moving to the center and lifting her arms up over her head again as the white strobes light up above her to wash down over her and the belt. She glares at the ref for a moment before she reluctantly hands over her precious title.
Melanie Sierra: First, from Chicago Illinois and tonight one half of TOMMY AND THE GUNS...AUUUROOOORRRAAA!!!
A loud noise echoes throughout the arena as the fog machines kick on, spewing slow-moving smoke up on the stage and all down the ramp. As the smoke begins to rise and spread out, the opening piano chords of Childish Gambino’s “Sober” echo throughout the arena, and the crowd pops loud. As the first words of the chorus kick in, Tommy Evans saunters out onto the stage with a cheesy grin, walking just like Gambino in the music video. Then as the first verse kicks in, Tommy charges forwards and leaps up onto the barricade, squatting down into his signature Suicide Pose.
Geoff Penzer: So. Tell me about the time Tommy Evans defeated you in tag action.
Evan Envi: No.
Melanie Sierra: And introducing her partner! Making his way to the ring hailing from Oshkosh, Wisconsin, now residing in Hamburg, Germany… Suicidal… Tommy… EVANS!
Tommy hops down from the barricade into the crowd, pushing his way through as different fans slap his back and offer him drinks of beer. As his name bursts out through the PA System, he hops back up onto the barricade, this time at ringside, holding a fist into the air. In one fluid motion, he hops from the barricade to the middle rope of the turnbuckle, climbing up to point at the other side of the crowd with his Suicide Pose again. He then drops down into the ring, removing his hoodie and handing it to the referee.
DYNAMIC DUOS - SECOND ROUND
Tommy and The Guns vs. The Chaotics
The bell sounds and Tommy Evans wastes no time rushing at Logan Alexander, taking him to the mat with a Leg Lariat! Logan’s eyes widen and he rolls to his feet, but he’s immediately Dropkicked into the Corner! Evans kips up to his feet with a roar into the audience-- and Philly roars back! Logan Alexander staggers up to his feet, eyes narrowed at Evans, but Tommy Evans rushes forward and blasts him with a sharp kick to the thighs… and then the ribcage… and then the chest!
Geoff Penzer: Seconds in, and Tommy Evans is absolutely taking it to a former World Champion in Logan Alexander! Logan is rattled, Chief!
Evan Envi: This would’ve never happened to a member of Camp Envi International. Eat those kicks, Logan.
Logan stumbles out of the corner and Tommy backs into the corner behind him, rising up to the second turnbuckle. Logan turns and Tommy nails a Front Dropkick from the second rope, knocking Logan to a seated position! Tommy scrambles upright and goes for a Jackknife cover… but Logan wraps his arms around his waist and bridges upright, turning into a Gutwrench Suplex to a pop from the audience! Tommy is up to his feet in an instant and swings for a right hand on the rising Alexander, but the veteran blocks it! He delivers a stomp to Tommy’s gut and Irish Whips him into the ropes! Tommy rebounds right into an Inverted Atomic Drop!
Evan Envi: Right in the Ashlyn.
Geoff Penzer: ...and Logan hits the ropes, with--!
Logan shoots the ropes and hits Tommy Evans with a Spear! The audience erupts as Tommy slams to the canvas and Logan stands upright, looking down at Evans with narrowed eyes.
Evan Envi: Hahahaha, YES! You know why!
Geoff Penzer: Shades of Rex Evans, the elder brother of Tommy, but Logan’s Spear was just as effective!
The audience continues to buzz as Tommy craws for the ropes. Aurora calmly, but loudly speaks words of warning toward Tommy. Logan stalks him and grabs him from behind, looking to lock in a Sleeper Hold! Tommy kicks his legs out for the ropes, but Logan pulls him to the center of the ring! Evans’ face begins to turn red as Logan Alexander wrenches him back and forth… until Evans drops down and hits a seated Jawbreaker to Logan! Alexander staggers back into the ropes. Tommy pushes himself up and leaps upright, nailing a standing Frankensteiner!
Evan Envi: Are you seeing this, Geoff?! Camp Envi International hopefuls, out here SHOWIN OFF!
Geoff Penzer: I see both men scrambling to their feet, but who’s gonna get the upperhand?! It’s…
Logan and Tommy both reach their feet and Logan delivers a hard left elbow strike… followed by a vicious slap to the jaw that reels Tommy! The audience erupts and Logan hits another elbow strike, but Tommy hits a stomp to his gut and plants FGA’s undefeated Grappler with a Spike DDT! Logan flips into a seated position from the maneuver, eyes glassy before he falls onto his back. Evans rolls into a cover, hooking the near leg!

Logan kicks out with authority, inadvertently rolling “Suicidal” Tommy Evans to his own corner! Aurora leans over the top rope and tags herself in as Evans comes to his feet, she pops up top onto the turnbuckles and Young Tom laces his hands together as she steps off to heave her up into the air and she hits a rarely seen from her diving double foot stomp that plasters Chaos Stryke back to the mat. She lands nimbly to the mat and boots him firmly in the ribs, and he curls around her boot in seeming agony, except that he’s playing a bit of opossum and he picks her leg, sending her straight off balance as he comes up quick, hitting her with a solid enzuigiri! He then hits an elbow drop with the intent to keep her docile and then pulls her up from the mat, the referee warning him about pulling her hair - even though it’s clear that he isn’t!
Evan Envi: Tommy needs to be watching his partner better than this. I’ll have a talk with him later.
Geoff Penzer: He’s doing what he’s supposed to be doing, I don’t… OH! Oh dear.
Now on their feet Aurora seems to waver, her knees seem to buckle and Logan moves to put her into a dragon sleeper - but she slips the hold, comes around and backhands him right across his face as the fans gasp along with Geoff! She points at Tommy as Logan feels his jaw a bit, then he nods once before he lunges to grab her wrists, spins around in a 360 and sends her off to the far ropes with a hard Irish whip! He sets up for a backslide to pin, but she leapfrogs over him and continues on to the near ropes, Alexander straightens to face her as she comes back with a bicycle kick! This bowls Logan over onto the mat but as Aurora drops to float over for the pin he catches her with a fast inside cradle!

Aurora breaks the cradle and rolls smoothly to her feet, rotating her neck a little before she turns just enough to toss a wink to Ashlyn, who stands up on the bottom strand and extends her hand towards Logan as he rises up from the mat, clearly desiring that he tag her into the match, right now! The path seems clear and Logan pushes himself upright with his palms, but Aurora races forward, hitting a Running Reverse DDT to Logan to a roar from the audience! Aurora rises to her neck and smirks at De Luca as she step down from the bottom rope and to the apron, glaring back at Aurora. Aurora hooks the near leg for a cover, breaking her gaze from Ashlyn to look at the ref.

Geoff Penzer: Kickout by Logan Alexander, but let’s not lose focus of how vicious and innovative of a DDT that was. Credit for Logan for kicking out, but credit for Aurora for hitting such a maneuver on the fly. Now it looks like she’s going to try to keep Logan grounded, moving into an angled side headlock here against the canvas but the veteran Alexander is trying to maintain some semblance of a vertical base.
Evan Envi: It’s the classic cliche, Geoff. You can’t fight-- you can’t breathe. Aurora may not have the muscle mass Logan does, but she has what matters right now; leverage and control, and Logan is getting worn out. He’s had to fight two different styles. Maybe if he were a longtime member of Camp Envi International, he’d know how to--
Geoff Penzer: And Logan’s making a beeline for the ropes!
Logan scrambles upright and tries to move for the ropes, but Aurora maintains a grip on his neck and brings him down for a rough Falling Neckbreaker! She shoots the half for another cover!

Kickout!Geoff Penzer: Kickout at one by Logan!
The audience roars at the authority of the kickout which shoves Aurora into a seated position. She raises a brow at Alexander, nodding her head a bit, before pulling him up with a fistful of hair. Again, Aurora looks at Ashlyn. De Luca says something that the cameras can’t quite pick up but draws a wicked grin from Jansen, who goes to Irish Whip Alexander into her own corner-- but Alexander reverses! Aurora careens into her own corner with intense force, causing her knees to buckle. Tommy Evans tags himself in and Aurora rushes back at Logan… but before her intentions are clear, Logan drills her with a Super Kick to the jaw! Jansen goes limp and falls against the ropes, the crowd groaning as her head seems to bounce off of the bottom.
Geoff Penzer: Jesus…
Evan Envi: A Super Kick with some sass on it!
Logan swivels-- and Evans catches him with a Savate Kick! Tommy follows up with a Toe Kick that stands Logan upright! However, the audience explodes as Tommy Evans strides at Alexander and blasts him with a Super Kick between the eyes!
Geoff Penzer: Warning Shot!
Evan Envi: What kind of a warning is that, Thomas?!
Logan falls flat to his back and Tommy, somehow, nails a Standing Shooting Star Press with no hesitation!

Logan throws a shoulder off of the mat, but Tommy Evans wastes no time rolling out to the apron. After briefly checking on his partner, who gives him a nod as she drops to her feet off of the apron, regaining composure, Tommy makes his way to the turnbuckles in a neutral corner and climbs to the top.
Evan Envi: I think I can see what’s happening here…
Tommy perches on top with a smirk down toward Alexander… and he leaps off, crashing down for a Double Foot Stomp!
Geoff Penzer: Nobody home!
Logan rolls out of harm’s way by mere inches, but locks in the Ankle Lock as soon as Tommy lands! Tommy kicks his leg out from under himself unintentionally, falling chest-first to the canvas as Logan immediately locks in the Grapevine Ankle Lock! The audience erupts at the technical display and Tommy frantically reaches for the ropes, but he finds himself in the center of the ring! Tommy looks back toward Aurora as she climbs back onto the apron, grabbing the tag rope. He begins to turn himself to face his corner.
Geoff Penzer: Evans with the right idea! If he can’t make it to the ropes, he can maybe try to reach the outstretched hand of Aurora Jansen! Logan needs to tag out just as badly, so if Tommy Evans can hang on--
Evan Envi: IF, Geoff. IF.
Tommy grunts, slamming a fist against the canvas… but he quickly begin to pull himself toward Jansen. Logan wrenches the Ankle Lock, but changes his positioning, looking to transition into a standing variant-- but Tommy takes advantage of the breather and pulls himself out from beneath Logan, turning onto his back to kick Logan in the spine! Logan stumbles forward, diving into his own corner to tag the outstretched hand of Ashlyn De Luca!
Evan Envi: FUEGO TAG, GEOFF! THAT’S SPANISH FOR FIRE, I think.
Tommy climbs to his feet in his own corner and the audience grows steadily louder at the possibilities while De Luca narrows her eyes at both members of Tommy and the Guns, stepping into the ring. Aurora reaches out and tags in with a tap on Tommy’s shoulder and then hops up onto the top turnbuckle, taking a seat! She grins almost cheekily at Ashlyn, and invites her to come forward, giving Tommy a few extra seconds to clear the ring and get to the apron.
Geoff Penzer: This has to be a ploy. She hit her head pretty hard on that rope though… Ashlyn seems wary though.
Evan Envi: Give De Luca some more credit, dangit! This is an explosive situation! You wouldn’t rush in to try and defuse a bomb, would you? Well, looking at your choice of ‘professional’ attire, you might.
Ashlyn paces out of range of any of Aurora’s top rope moves, her hands on her hips and looking agitated. Logan shouts something to her, but she doesn’t take her attention off of Aurora, holding up a hand towards her partner instead. Tommy stands on the apron and shakes his head, a hand up to hide a snicker at the tension between the two as the fans murmur and get restless. Finally Aurora pops up into a crouch on the turnbuckle, elbows resting on her knees as she calculates the distance. Ashlyn sees a split-second opening as Aurora goes to stand and rushes in to kick the ropes! Aurora topples, but throws herself forward and lands on Ashlyn’s shoulders, and flips for her Poison Rana! However, it’s clear that as they hit the mat that De Luca ends up the better as her boot clips Aurora’s head! Both laid out near the corner, Tommy looks a touch conflicted as Ashlyn sits up first, and a gleam comes to her eyes. Instead of a cover she grabs Aurora’s arm by the wrist and twists before she hooks her into a Fujiwara armbar!
Geoff Penzer: De Luca looking for the submission, Chief!
She cranks back with her weight and then scoots back on the mat, using her strength to pull them away from the ropes! Aurora’s long legs come in handy however as she laces her ankles around the bottom strand to anchor herself, the referee tells Ashlyn to let go and she glares at him - the fans chanting for her:
SHE’S GOT TIL FIVE! SHE’S GOT TIL FIVE!
Ashlyn rises to a knee and narrows her eyes at Aurora, who pulls herself upright, holding her shoulder as she shakes her arm. The grin returns to Jansen’s face for just a moment before she rushes forward for a Bicycle Kick! Ashlyn evades it just barely and goes for a Backslide Pin-- but Aurora wrenches an arm free and turns Ashlyn around, nailing a vicious slap to the face that sends the SSWA World Champion staggering back and an
”OOOOOHHH…” surging through Philadelphia.
Geoff Penzer: Ashlyn--
Ashlyn De Luca responds with an overhand chop across the face of Jansen, to a massive roar from the audience! Jansen briefly falls to a knee, eyes going glassy before she fires back with one open hand… and a second… third… fourth, and a fifth that send shots echoing throughout the arena and against the ropes. De Luca loses her balance, falling back against the ropes-- but rebounds, hitting Jansen with a desperation headbutt! Both women collapse to the canvas and the blank expressions of their respective partners are caught on the cameras.
Evan Envi: Wha--
Geoff Penzer: I think Ashlyn De Luca’s bleeding. I think Aurora Jansen forgot where she is.
The audience is at a fever pitch as both women struggle to reach their feet. We see that Ashlyn’s eardrum has been busted while a second camera shows that Jansen’s cheek suffered a laceration from the earlier chop. Ashlyn reaches her feet first and shoots the ropes, rebounding-- but Aurora delivers a boot to the jaw, flipping the oncoming De Luca onto her stomach! She pushes her over, hooking both legs for a tight cover! Logan buries his face in a hand in the background.

Evan Envi: Ha! Resilience! Traits similar to those of a Camp Envi International representative! Look at that! Gahhh, my chest hurts, Geoff. I can’t take near-falls like this. I was trying to leave the indies! I was gonna be an accountant, y’know. What is this life?
Geoff Penzer: And it looks like Jansen’s reaching her feet first, using the ropes for support! She’s still disoriented but at least she’s moving, unlike Ashlyn.
Aurora gets to her feet, still holding the top rope with one hand as her other lifts to touch the laceration on her cheek, smearing the blood then wiping her fingers on her gear before she takes a deep breath and steps out, warily moves around the downed Ashlyn, but as she bends to grab her up De Luca’s hands shoot up and yank her off balance as she tries to put Aurora into a triangle choke! Aurora frantically backpedals as Ashlyn rolls up to her feet slowly, hands out to her sides as if testing her balance before she pursues and hits the ropes near Aurora to come back with a springboard dropkick! Aurora sprawls but slides back up to her feet and waits for Ashlyn, as she comes up game to fight Aurora hits her with a dragon whip kick! She yanks Ashlyn up, wiping her cheek on her own shoulder before she hooks her up, head tucked in near her ribs as she kicks a leg out to set up for the To Be Named - but as they start Ashlyn gets her leg wrapped with Aurora’s, and slides her arms tight around her waist! She gets her head free and for a few moments it’s a straight up brawl, some of the fans in the front doing a school yard fight chant!
Ashlyn shoves free completely of Aurora, then runs at her and punches her in the belly and as she bends hits a tornado DDT! She hooks a leg to cover as the referee slides in.

Aurora rolls the shoulder up! Ashlyn pushes up to a crouch and rolls Aurora to her side as she sets her up for a bow and arrow, but as she goes to set her feet Aurora fights out of the hold and rolls to her feet. She boots Ashlyn in the side but instead of trying for a cover, she moves to tag in Tommy Evans again!
Geoff Penzer: Another interesting matchup right here! And I notice Aurora didn’t go for the cover… maybe mind-games with the opposition, finally coming into play here?
Evan Envi: It was gonna happen. It’s a switch she can’t turn off.
Ashlyn rises up to an elbow, looking at Tommy Evans and for a few moment the two simply lock eyes. Tommy steps into the ring and waits for De Luca to climb to her feet, but the moment she does, she blasts him with a European Uppercut! Tommy is staggered, but met with a second and a third! Ashlyn goes for an Irish Whip, but Tommy reverses it! Ashlyn barely has a chance to rebound off the ropes before Tommy Evans runs forward and nails a Rolling Axe Kick! Ashlyn seems to be out on her feet as Tommy rolls back to his. He goes for a Discus Forearm… but Ashlyn ducks! Tommy, however, makes a second rotation and blasts her with the second one! Ashlyn flies onto her back and Tommy drops down, hooking the far leg!

Kickout!Tommy grins, almost bitterly, down toward his significant other. He takes a breath and pulls her upright by the arm-- but turns her around, looking for the Crossface Chickenwing! Ashlyn wildly tries to fight out of it, forcing the unbalanced Evans behind her toward her corner! She kicks out toward Logan and Logan swipes Ashlyn’s boot! The referee makes a signal but Tommy has already wrestled De Luca to the ground, securing the Crossface Chickenwing!
Geoff Penzer: I don’t think Tommy Evans saw the tag!
Evan Envi: It’s ALMOST like one of these teams should have a representative out there, looking at this fight from a different angle, helping them out or something. Weird!
Logan steps through the ropes, directly onto the bottom and pushes himself up to the second rope. He leaps off, driving the point of his elbow into Tommy’s skull, forcing him to break the hold! Ashlyn rolls away and Logan hooks Tommy’s legs for the cover!

Tommy throws the shoulder up with authority, sending Logan up to a seat… but he rises, coming face to face with Aurora Jansen, who’d entered the ring to break up the pin if needed. The two glare at each other and Logan calmly says something-- but Tommy Evans is back to his feet behind Logan, this time going for a Cobra Clutch! Aurora smirks and calmly backs out of the ring as Logan struggles in the hold!
Geoff Penzer: Tommy Evans is no slouch in the submission game, but--
Logan, redfaced, drops to a knee and manages to take Evans to the mat with a Snapmare.
Evan Envi: But that.
Evans reaches his feet and turns around, taking a boot to the gut! The shot sends him to a knee and Logan Irish Whips him into his own corner! With Tommy dazed, Logan runs for an Enzuigiri and Ashlyn jumps to hit an Enzuigiri to the back of Tommy’s head simultaneously-- but Evans ducks and rolls through! Both kicks come up short, but Logan pivots and rushes at Tommy… only for both men to attempt simultaneous Cross Body blocks! The sound of flesh resonates throughout the arena and both men crash awkwardly in a heap, Evans lying on top!

Tommy sits up and gets behind Logan, locking him up in the Hiricide, his version of a Lotus Lock! This seems to give Logan a boost of sudden energy however as he feels trapped! Tommy pulls back on the hold but to no avail as Alexander contorts his body and manages to counter out! Instead of getting frustrated Evans rolls to his feet and gets some distance and when Logan comes to all fours in comes Tommy with a huge shooting star meteora, wiping them both out again! The fans react with some mild screams as the velocity of the landing sends both men sliding across the mat and under the ropes to the apron!
Geoff Penzer: Teetering on No Man’s Land out there!
Evan Envi: That Seppuku man, if Tommy can get his act together, this may well be over!
Geoff Penzer: No! Logan don’t do it!
Evan Envi: LOGAN, YOU MADMAN! I DUNNO HOW TO FEEL!
The fans beg him not to do it, but Logan gets Tommy up and hits a German suplex right on the apron… and then another! Tommy slides off the apron after the latest one, leaving the Chaotic Revolution incomplete and both Aurora and Ashlyn showing differing levels of concern as they watch from their respective spots. Logan takes a few short moments to catch his breath as the referee warns him to get back in the ring, he gives him a look but then drops off the apron to the floor below. However as he lands and turns to grab Tommy, Evans rockets to his feet and hits him with another superkick!! The Warning Shot strikes Logan on the jaw this time and drops him like a sack of potatoes, Evans going back to a kneel as the move seems to have taken all he had.
Evan Envi: Get back in the ring! Come on, you know better!
Geoff Penzer: Who are you even talking to?
Evan Envi: What was that Geoff? Sounds like someone in the production truck messed with your microphone levels, you should go get that checked.
Tommy pulls himself up with the aid of the ropes and stumbles to Logan, hoisting him up with a handful of hair-- simply too exhausted to grab his body. The referee scolds him, but Evans turns and swings Logan into his corner. Tommy tags out to Aurora, but Logan delivers a hard open-hand slap to Tommy’s chest and throws an elbow back, catching Aurora in the lip! Tommy delivers a kick to the cornered Logan’s ribcage and goes for a second-- but Logan catches the second kick and turns, throwing Tommy out of the corner with an Exploder Suplex! Tommy hits the center of the ring and rolls to the outside, cursing under his breath… but with Logan still on his back, Jansen comes out of nowhere to hit the Split-Legged Corkscrew Moonsault!
Geoff Penzer: HAUNTED REVOLUTION!
Aurora hooks the far leg and grapevines the near one! The ref counts!

A Ropewalk into a Frog Splash across the back of Jansen breaks up the pin! Aurora contorts in pain, rolling off of Logan while Ashlyn De Luca glares down at her. Ashlyn begins to back away toward her corner-- but Jansen lunges to her feet and tackles Ashlyn to the ground! Sharp, precise strikes find their mark while the ref yells for the women to break it up! Ashlyn’s nose is immediately busted open, but she uses her head as a weapon a second time, delivering a headbutt to the legal competitor, Jansen! Aurora stumbles to her feet and the bloodied De Luca begins to do the same… but Jansen nails a running boot that sends her through the ropes and out to the apron!
Evan Envi: “And stay out!” Haha… I like to imagine Aurora said that.
Geoff Penzer: REVISED CHAOS THEORY!
Logan Alexander grabs Aurora from behind, seamlessly locking in the Rear Naked Choke! He leaps onto her for the body scissors, bringing Aurora to the mat beneath his weight! Logan rolls onto his own back, applying more pressure to the hold-- but a Springboard 360-degree Foot Stomp from Tommy Evans nearly smashes the shoulder of the veteran! Alexander yells out in agony at the impact! Evans falls to his back, rolling out to the apron, clutching at his ankle, tweaking it on the landing!
Evan Envi: Look at this! It reminds me of a short movie I once watched called “Everybody Dies!”
Ashlyn’s grabbed a shirt from a ring worker to staunch the blood from her nose, Aurora chuckles darkly as she looks to see where both Tommy and Ash are in quick glances before she grabs Logan by the wrists and pulls him up to his feet, starting the lead-in for her Carpathian Cross. She gets him into the twisting wristlocks and flips him for the double underhook behind her, forces his head down with the pressure but before she can drop for the facebuster, she sees Ashlyn slide through the ropes and come charging at her! She releases Logan who drops to the mat cradling his freshly torqued shoulder and balls up her fists, heading right at De Luca! A few hard shots are exchanged before Aurora is suddenly yanked backwards into a schoolboy roll up by Logan! She kicks out before the referee can even slide for the count and when they roll apart and Logan stands, Ashlyn steps to him and points at their corner as she pulls him back away from Aurora! Logan looks taken aback at first, ready to charge back into battle, but Aurora remains on a knee, smirking devilishly at De Luca.
Evan Envi: Oh this… oh hey take charge, ladies! LOGAN, LET IT HAPPEN!
Geoff Penzer: These four don’t have much left but I think Ashlyn De Luca wants to end this. Yet, if you look into the eyes of Aurora Jansen you know she wants the same--
Evan Envi: And she knows
how to do it.
Logan nods and Ashlyn backs out to her corner. Logan begins to step toward his partner… but Aurora Jansen grabs him from behind to a loud mixed reaction from the crowd, seemingly going for a Reverse DDT! Ashlyn’s eyes widen… but Logan drops down to his knees to escape it! In desperation, he shoves Aurora, knocking her through the ropes! Aurora flips to her feet on the outside of the ring next to the rising Tommy Evans. Logan makes the tag to Ashlyn De Luca who immediately sprints across the ring, looking for a punt to the jaw of Jansen-- but Aurora swivels her head out of harm’s way and yanks Ashlyn’s planted foot, causing her to flip from the apron and straight to the floor!
Evan Envi: Did I mention Aurora Jansen’s a genius? Just look at her. She LOOKS like a genius.
Geoff Penzer: ...huh. And Logan is coming out to the aid of his partner but…
Logan steps out to the apron, but Evans races across the apron out of nowhere, grabbing Alexander from behind and nailing a Back Suplex onto the apron! Both Grapplers tumble to the floor as dueling chants surge throughout the arena!
Evan Envi: Payback from earlier! And now Aurora’s rolling Ashlyn into the ring!
Aurora gets Ashlyn clear of the ropes before she climbs up onto the apron and slides through the ropes, taking in a few deep breaths, though she looks to be the only one in the match with more in the tank, likely from her training for her upcoming Iron Woman match. She moves to pull Ashlyn to her feet, and to the surprise of the fans she gently brushes her hair back from her face before she sets her head near her ribcage, getting ready for that devastating flowing snap DDT. Ashlyn sinks to a knee and Aurora struggles to pull her upright again. Ashlyn throws herself to the mat, grabbing the bottom rope to an annoyed, bitter smirk from Jansen.
Geoff Penzer: De Luca is exhausted.
Evan Envi: She doesn’t know what the heck to do anymore!
Aurora strides to the ropes and delivers a vicious stomp to Ashlyn’s gut. She struggles to pull Ash away from the ropes.
Meanwhile on the outside of the ring, Tommy Evans rises to his feet only to be hit with a hard chop to the chest by Logan Alexander that sends him stumbling back! Tommy hits one in return and Logan responds! The two fire rapid chops at one another before Tommy grabs Logan and Irish Whips him into the barricade! Logan hits it back-first and Tommy hops onto the apron, rushing across it, hitting a Flying Forearm Smash that sends Logan against the barricade! The two exchange rights and lefts again as Tommy pulls himself off the barrier!
Geoff Penzer: There are two fights going on right now, Chief!
Evan Envi: And they’re both entertaining as heck! Inside the ring, Aurora is stomping the crap out of the SSWA World Champion! Bart’s somewhere weeping!
Aurora pulls Ashlyn up-- but nails a hard European Uppercut, knocking Jansen to her butt! Aurora pulls herself upright and hits Ashlyn with a vicious open hand to the jaw, but Ashlyn nails one of her own-- and sends Aurora staggering back with a toe kick! Ashlyn runs past her and shoots the ropes, only to rebound with the Running Double Spinning Heel Kick!
Geoff Penzer: Syxx Kick!
On the outside of the ring, Tommy Evans hops onto Logan Alexander’s shoulders and turns around, going for the inverted Hurricanrana, but Logan grabs onto the bottom rope to stop it! Ashlyn catches sight of this and watches as Logan stumbles back, away from the ring with Tommy on his shoulders. Ashlyn wastes no time running for the turnbuckles, scaling to the top…
...before leaping from the top, crashing down on top of Tommy on the outside with double knees! Tommy flips backwards off of Logan’s shoulders, smashing to the ground below while Ashlyn lands roughly beside him!
Evan Envi: SHMURDA DEVICE, GEOFF! I JUST MADE THAT UP! GIVE ME CREDIT!
”HOLY SHIT”
”HOLY SHIT!”
”HOLY SHIT!”
Geoff Penzer: Listen to this place!
Logan helps Ashlyn to her feet and guides her to the ring. Ashlyn climbs onto the apron-- but the audience responds with a loud groan as Aurora pulls Ashlyn into the ring by the hair, nailing the Flowing Snap DDT… To-Be-Named! The mixed reaction becomes deafening and Aurora pushes Ashlyn over, hooking the near leg!

Logan pulls Ashlyn’s foot onto the bottom rope to a roar from the audience! Aurora slowly sits upright, glaring at Alexander.
Geoff Penzer: Look at the carnage at ringside! Tommy Evans is dazed and confused,
trying to crawl back to his corner, God knows how. Logan is trying to protect his partner any way he can.. Ashlyn might not be conscious…
Aurora shakes her head and rips Ashlyn off the canvas, immediately going for her version of the Gogoplata, the EVP!
Evan Envi: Say goodnight!
Aurora goes to lock in the move in its entirety-- but Ashlyn somehow manages to grab the bottom rope again! Aurora Jansen grabs Ashlyn by her legs and rips her into the air off the ropes, causing Ashlyn to corkscrew into the air-- and grab Aurora in mid-air, slamming her face-first to the canvas with the Flyleaf!
Geoff Penzer: FLYLEAF BY ASHLYN!
Evan Envi: THAT was more than your average Flyleaf!
Ashlyn groggily makes the cover, hooking both legs while Logan watches with wide eyes on the apron!

With one last gasp, Tommy Evans reaches into the ring, yanking De Luca off of his partner before he collapses to the floor! Logan looks at Tommy with rage while Ashlyn writhes on the mat. Tommy stumbles around the ring to his own corner, climbing onto the ring apron. Ashlyn reaches up, tagging in Logan Alexander while Aurora tries to make the harrowing crawl! Logan enters the ring and motions for Ashlyn to climb up to her feet. Logan gets on one side of Aurora while Ashlyn groggily gets up on the other side… but Aurora barrels into Ashlyn, sending her through the ropes and to the outside!
Geoff Penzer: Desperation by Jansen!
Logan grabs Aurora from behind and sets her up for the Cutter-- but Aurora reaches for his face and rakes his eyes! The ref scolds her but Aurora stumbles into her own corner, slapping the hand of Tommy Evans!
Geoff Penzer: No! Rake to the eyes!
Evan Envi: And here comes Tommy!
Evans races forward and hits the Flying Head Kick! Logan is thrown onto his back from the impact and Tommy slides into the cover!
Geoff Penzer: This is heartbreaking! This is cutthroat! Brain Damage!

Ashlyn dives back into the ring over the bottom rope, barely shoving Evans off! A deafening mixed reaction surges through the arena as Evans rolls off of Logan Alexander. Ashlyn rolls back out to the apron and Tommy looks at her with an indistinguishable expression.
Evan Envi: He’s gonna kill her!
Tommy strides toward his girlfriend as she rises on the apron, but she grabs his head and turns, dropping down to nail a Hangman’s Neckbreaker, snapping his neck over the top rope! Tommy stumbles forward into the Stryke Force Cutter from Alexander, drilling him into the center of the ring! Both men lie motionless and the audience erupts, stomping and clapping for either man to move. Ashlyn and Aurora both look groggy, but both beg for a tag to the delight of the audience!
Evan Envi: How either of these chicks are thinking about getting back in there is beyond me!
Logan begins crawling first, eyes barely open as he crawls for De Luca. Tommy rolls onto his back, looking up at Aurora in his corner. Aurora reaches in and slaps Tommy’s hand as Logan simultaneously slaps Ashlyn’s. Aurora is quicker to enter the ring. Watching Logan rise to his feet, Aurora sprints toward him, going for a running elbow… but Logan goes low and tosses Aurora overhead with a release Flapjack! De Luca leaps into the air, catching the falling Jansen with a leaping sitout Facebuster!
Geoff Penzer: THE C5!
Ashlyn bounces on top of Aurora but hooks both legs for the deep cover!

Tommy dives to stop it but the ref has already called for the bell while the crowd erupts! “Deadcruiser” hits the PA system and Ashlyn rolls off of Aurora.
Melanie Sierra: Here are your winners… CHAAAOOOOTICS!
The audience remains at a fever pitch for the contest. Ashlyn crawls to her corner, checking on Logan Alexander. Tommy does the same, kneeling beside Aurora. The referee waits for Logan to reach a vertical base before raising his hand alongside Ashlyn’s.
Evan Envi: Hey. Tough break for Tommy and the Guns, right? But it wouldn’t have happened to a member of Camp Envi International.
Geoff can be seen in the background shaking his head at the table at Envi’s remarks while Aurora and Tommy face Chaotics in the ring after the bell. Logan glares at Aurora, eyes still red from the gouge… but Aurora extends her hand, as does Tommy. The music fades and the two teams look at each other in silence, all breathing heavily. Logan and Ashlyn exchange looks and with a small smile, Ashlyn shakes Aurora’s hand while Logan does the same with Tommy. Ashlyn gives Tommy a wink before the Chaotics depart the ring, celebrating with the fans at ringside as their music hits again.
Geoff Penzer: A class act.
Aurora and Tommy look out among the audience, earning a standing ovation. They exit the ring and we fade on the victors, Logan and Ashlyn, as they slap the hands and bump the fists of their fans over the barrier.
★★★ COMMERCIAL BREAK ★★★
