Vertigo E92 (10.24.21)

[FGA Office]

Tyler Storm vs. John Carmichael

The arena is plunged into darkness as the opening bars of "Land of Sunshine" play over the PA system until golden light floods the entranceway to reveal John Carmichael stood at the top of the ramp, his back to the crowd and an arm held high with his index finger raised, making damn sure that everyone in the arena knows that he's there and they're now on his time

You have a winning way, so keep it, your future, your future, your future
You are an angel heading for a land of sunshine
And fortune is smiling upon you

Having kept the crowd waiting for as long as he damn well feels like, with his entrance theme literally laughing in the crowd's faces, finally Carmichael whips around on the spot to face the ring and without a second's hesitation begins to walk to the ring

Prepare for a series of comfortable miracles
From fasting to feasting, to feasting
Life to you is a dashing, bold adventure
So sing and rejoice, and sing and rejoice

As he makes his way down the ramp in his own damn time, Carmichael occasionally glances from side to side at the fans nearest to him wearing an expression that combines bemusement and contempt of each and every last one of them until he reaches the ringside area and simply shrugs his leather jacket off his shoulders and makes his way onto the ring apron

J.A. Aldridge: The following contest is scheduled for one fall! Introducing first, hailing from Queens, New York! Weighing in at 233 pounds… JOHN CARMICHAEL!

And look for the dream that keeps coming back your future, your future, your future
Pat yourself on the back and give yourself a handshake
'Cause everything is not yet lost

Quickly stepping through the ropes into the ring, Karma climbs the nearest turnbuckles and simply stands there without raising an arm, a finger, or even a muscle to acknowledge the crowd, instead he's just making sure they can see that he's there

Does life seem worthwhile to you?

Climbing off the turnbuckles, Carmichael walks into the centre of the ring - but he keeps his back firmly to the camera and, as a result, the people watching the show on their televisions and their tablets, because they're just as much part of the problem

Does life seem worthwhile to you?

Dropping into a crouch, Carmichael looks at his opponent, but rather than sizing them up as a threat he's looking at them like a job that he'd rather take care of with as little fuss as possible, at which point he glances to the ref to tell him to ring the bell so he can get out of here as soon as possible.

Kris Cruise: Regardless of what happens on Night One, John Carmichael will get Chandler Scott at Night Two of All-Star Showdown X! He has promised to remove the “virus” known as Chandler Scott from FGA, once and for all. Will he be successful, Stephy?

Stephy Auger: For Chandler’s sake, he better hope not. Who knows what lengths Carmichael will go to try and “remove” him.

The lights begin to slow fade out to the opening tunes of "Eye of the Tiger" before flashing quickly back on once the rifts of the guitar begin playing, along with being met with flashes of blue and gold light on the stage. Once the song picks up into its normal tune about 25 seconds in, Tyler Storm rushes out from behind the curtain to a positive pop, bobbing his head to the beat of the song and mouthing out to the fans.

J.A. Aldridge: His opponent, hailing from Tuscaloosa, Alabama! Weighing in at 215 pounds… TYLER STORM!

Once the lyrics start, Tyler begins making his way down the ramp, walking along the left for the first half of his trek to the ring and high-fiving fans or talking with them, and doing the same in the second half of his walk on the right side. Before long he reaches ringside and after interacting with a few more people at ringside, he works his way up the stairs onto the ring apron. He rubs his feet off for a few moments, then gripping onto the top rope he jumps up and slides his legs in between the top and middle ropes and into the ring.

The crowd erupts with boos when Carmichael blasts Storm with Pay Attention (haymaker to an opponent stepping though the ropes)!

Kris Cruise: Oh come on!

Stephy Auger: Storm should have paid attention! That’s not Carmichael’s fault!

Carmichael rolls to the outside and puts the boots to Storm. He reaches down, grabs Storm by the head with both hands and starts to pull him off the mat before throwing her down with a hair pull mat slam. The back of Storm’s head smacks hard off the floor.

Kris Cruise: Did you hear that!?

Carmichael reaches down, picks up Storm and drops him face-first across the edge of the apron with a snake eyes. He then turns Storm around before dropping him with Ya Gotta Believe (two punches to the gut followed with a European uppercut)!

Kris Cruise: Carmichael has been smothering Storm with strikes!

Stephy Auger: The great part about it is that the match hasn’t even started yet, so the ref can’t DQ Carmichael even if he wanted to!

The boos continue as Carmichael takes Storm and whips him hard down the ringside area. After crashing into the guardrail, Storm slumps down next to it. Carmichael then runs down before nailing Storm with a running dropkick to the shoulder. He grabs a hold of Storm and pulls him back to his feet before doubling him over with four knee strikes to the midsection. Carmichael takes a couple of steps before rushing forward and knocking Storm down with I Am Wrestling (Mr Wrestling II knee lift)!

Kris Cruise: Good Lord!

Stephy Auger: Does Tyler even know where he is right now?

The referee admonishes Carmichael and tells him to get into the ring. Carmichael nods as he pulls Storm off the floor before rolling him inside. He then motions to step back inside… only to reach in, grabs Storm by the ankle and yank him back out to the floor. Carmichael continues to be admonished by the ref, but Carmichael pays him no mind. He reaches down, lifts Storm across his shoulders and brings him down with Spite (fireman's carry into backbreaker). Storm falls over into the prone position before Carmichael delivers Yankees Still Suck (snap arm wringer to a face down opponent)!

Kris Cruise: Come on, Carmichael! Get in the ring so we can officially start this thing!

Carmichael picks up Storm and rams him back-first against the side of the ring before rolling him back inside. The bell sounds when Carmichael rolls back into the ring.

Kris Cruise: Finally!

Carmichael picks up Storm, marches into the corner and slams him face-first into the top turnbuckle. He then follows up with two punches to the gut that double Storm over. After knocking Storm upright in the corner with another Wrestling II Knee Lift, the crowd cheers when Storm grabs Carmichael, switches positions in the corner and unleashes a flurry of knife edge chops that echo throughout the arena.

Stephy Auger: What!?

Kris Cruise: Tyler’s fighting back! Tyler’s fighting back! The former Pride Champion has some fight left in him! Get him, Tyler!

Storm continues to hack away at Carmichael with chops before hammering him with rapid firearm forearm strikes. Carmichael tries to cover up, but Storm’s strikes eventually break through and send him slumping down in the corner. The former Pride Champion continues to pour on the offense with mudhole stomps. He reaches down, pulls Carmichael out of the corner and whips him into the far corner. Storm runs across the ring to attack until Carmichael counters with a back elbow to the face. After a knee to the midsection doubles Storm over, Carmichael grabs him and throws him shoulder-first into the ring post. The boos continue as he pulls Storm out of the corner before dropping him with Divorced From reality (single arm DDT)! Carmichael makes the cover.

ONE!
.
.
TWO!

Storm gets his good shoulder up.

Carmichael picks up Storm and lifts him up across his shoulders. He goes to deliver another fireman’s carry backbreaker until Storm uses the hurt arm to hit Carmichael with multiple elbows to the side of the head. Storm slips down from behind before following up with a Backdrop Driver!

ONE!
.
.
TWO!
.
.
Carmichael kick out.

Kris Cruise: Carmichael kicked out in the nick of time!

Stephy Auger: How is Tyler still fighting? He should be out!

Carmichael reverses an irish whip, sending Storm into the ropes. He sets up for a back body drop off the rebound until Storm stops and lifts him up onto his shoulders! The crowd cheers as Storm turns, heads towards the corner and delivers a Buckle Bomb! Carmichael staggers out of the corner before crumbling to the mat. While Carmichael lays down on the mat, Storm clutches his arm as he heads over towards him. Storm delivers a stomp to the left ankle, followed by a stomp to the right knee, followed by a stomp to the right bicep, followed by repeated stomps to the left shoulder. Storm then connects with a standing elbow drop with the good arm before making the cover.

ONE!
.
.
TWO!

Carmichael kicks out.

Storm takes Carmichael and whips him into the ropes. Carmichael returns off the ropes before Storm catches him in a Sleeper.

Kris Cruise: Carmichael’s about to go to sleep!

The crowd cheers as Storm tries to put Carmichael to sleep. The ref asks Carmichael if he wants to give up. Carmichael refuses before grabbing Storm’s hurt arm and throwing him over in front of him. He takes a couple of steps back as Storm starts to pick himself up. Carmichael runs over to attack until Storm counters with a Blue Thunder Bomb!

ONE!
.
.
TWO!
.
.
TH-NO!

Carmichael gets the shoulder up.

Kris Cruise: So close!

Storm takes Carmichael, delivers an irish whip, follows him into the corner and connects with a Rolling Forearm! The cheers continue as he takes Carmichael, delivers an irish whip, follows him into the far corner and connects with another spinning forearm. The crowd counts along as Storm climbs to the middle ropes and starts to rain down punches.

“ONE!”

“TWO!”

“THREE!’

“FOUR!”

“FIVE!”

“SIX!”

“SEVEN!”

“EI-”

Carmichael grabs Storm, heads out of the corner and doubles him over with an inverted atomic drop. He then turns and hits the ropes. When Carmichael returns, the crowd cheers when Storm knocks him off his feet with a spinning heel kick! He makes the cover.

ONE!
.
.
TWO!
.
.
THR-NO!

Carmichael gets the shoulder up.

Kris Cruise: That kick nearly put Carmichael away!

Storm picks up Carmichael and scoops him up onto his shoulder. He goes to lift Carmichael even higher for the Bite Wound (crucifix cutter), but his shoulder gives out. The crowd gasps when Carmichael slips down from behind, spins Storm towards him and plants him with the One Way Trip (knee to the gut followed by a snap DDT)! The boos continue as Storm gets pulled back up before getting thrown down with the Tahara (full nelson slam over the knee)! Carmichael takes Storm and sends him for the ride. When Storm returns, Carmichael throws him down with authority with Life's A Bitch (pop up sitdown powerbomb)!

Carmichael starts to pick up Storm off the mat. When he lets go, he watches as Storm’s limp body falls in front of him. The crowd boos as Carmichael starts to pick the deadweight up off the mat before letting go again. Storm collapses to the mat and lays motionless in the prone position.

Kris Cruise: This doesn't’ look good, Stephy! Especially right before Tyler’s big rematch this weekend.

Stephy Auger: Of course it doesn’t look good, Cruise. That’s because this match is all but over!


Carmichael positions himself behind Storm before peeling him up off the mat by the back of the tights. After taking control of Storm’s back, Carmichael finishes him off with No Regrets (wristlock transitioned into a Stunner)! NO! Storm slips out of the Stunner attempt and rolls him up with a schoolboy!

ONE!
.
.
TWO!
.
.
THREE!

Kris Cruise: Tyler’s done it!

Stephy Auger: What!?

J.A. Aldridge: Ladies and gentlemen, the winner of this bout, TYLER STORM!

Stephy Auger: WHAT!?

The ref raises Storm’s arm in the air until Carmichael knocks him down with a Polish Hammer across the back of the neck!

Kris Cruise: WHAT THE HELL!?

The boos continue as Carmichael puts the boots to Storm while the ref calls for help.

Kris Cruise: Carmichael lost this match fair and square and this is how he acts!

The bell repeatedly sounds while Carmichael continues to stomp away.

Stephy Auger: Carmichael is stamping the hell out of Storm!

Kris Cruise: This isn’t right! There’s no need for this! You lost cleanly, Carmichael! All you had to do was tip your cap and call it a day! Not do this!

The cameras cut to the backstage area. Amanda Johnson can be seen frantically looking around.

Amanda Johnson: We’ve got to get some help out there for Tyler! Someone, anyone! Help!

Amanda continues to call for help until her attention turns to someone down the hall. She runs up to the reigning Pride Champion.

Amanda Johnson: Ace!

Ace Voltage: …

Amanda Johnson: Please! We know you and Tyler have history! But he needs help! If you don’t want to do it for Tyler, do it for yourself! If Carmichael keeps this up, you may not even have a match for All-Star Showdown!

Ace narrows his eyes at Amanda… before turning, snatching up a steel chair and closing it shut. Ace is met with a surprising round of applause from the crowd as he rushes down the hall.

The cameras cut back to the ring, where Carmichael is delivering repeated elbow drops across the leg. Out from the back runs Ace Voltage with chair in hand. Ace goes to slide into the ring… before sliding back out, opening the chair and sitting down in it before gesturing for Carmichael to continue.

“BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!”

​​Kris Cruise: Dammit, Ace!

Carmichael takes Storm and places him in a figure four leg lock. Suddenly, the boos turn to cheers as Chandler Scott races out from the back.

Kris Cruise: It’s Chandler! Chandler’s here!

Stephy Auger: Gah!

Scott runs down the aisle, knocks Voltage out of his seat with a clothesline from behind before sliding into the ring. As soon as Scott gets in, Carmichael quickly lets go of the figure four and rolls to the outside. Scott runs over toward the side of the ring and kicks the bottom rope before motioning for Carmichael to get back inside.

Kris Cruise: Chandler just made the save! Carmichael retreated! Chandler will have to wait until Night Two of All-Star Showdown X to get his hands on the former Johnny Karma! This capacity crowd is on their feet! We’ve got to take one last commercial break! We’ll be right back after this! Don’t go anywhere!

• COMMERCIAL BREAK •

[FGA Office]

Vertigo returns from commercial break with Chandler Scott still pacing back and forth in time ring. On the outside, Ace Voltage slowly starts to climb up the steps.

Kris Cruise: During the commercial break, John Carmichael was removed from ringside before Tyler could be helped to the back by one of the officials and Owen Gonsalves, who himself was being treated during Tyler’s match with Carmichael. But Chandler Scot hasn’t left the ring. The main event might be off, but he still wants a piece of Ace Voltage!

Just as Voltage is about to step through the ropes…

"And this is what it feels like..."

Kris Cruise: What in the world?

The lights dim down and take on a purplish hue as a light smoky mist fills the entrance way. The soulful horns in the intro to "What It Feels Like" by Nipsey Hussle and Jay-Z blare over the speakers.

Stephy Auger: Your guess is as good as mine.

"And this is what it feels like..."

As the beat drops, the shapely silhouette of Cordelia Stevenson forms in the midst of the smoke. After a few seconds she casually breaks through the misty veil, stepping forward onto the walkway and stopping for the perfect photo op. Lifting her head towards the sky, she thrusts her Undisputed Championship into the air as the fans shower her with boos. She lowers her head, a satisfied smirk on her face as she proceeds down towards the ring, mouthing off at the crowd and reminding them that she is the New DNA of FGA every chance that she gets.

Kris Cruise: Oh give me a break!

Stephy Auger: Look who it is, Cruise! Cordelia Stevenson has decided to grace us with her presence tonight inside the arena! Look what she’s wearing, too?

Kris Cruise: That’s not a referee’s shirt, is it?

Stephy Auger: You bet it is! She did say she was about to make this show interesting!

Finally she makes her way up the steps and walks along the apron before stepping through the ropes in an almost teasing fashion. She steps into the ring and walks directly to the center of it, looking out at the crowd with a disapproving gaze as she holds her championship belt into the air once more. As the music dies down, she hands her title off to an attendant at ring side and makes her way towards her corner.

Kris Cruise: This is an absolute farce!

Stephy Auger: Oh, so Chandler can referee her big Unification Match, but she can’t referee his? Hmmm? Answer that for me!


Scott can be heard telling Stevenson to get the fuck out of the ring. The Undisputed Champion smirks and responds by wagging her finger in his face. Scott smacks her finger out of his face before Stevenson pulls at her shirt to remind him who is in charge for this match.

Kris Cruise: I cannot believe this!

Stephy Auger: You better! Besides, you should be happy! The main event is going to happen after all!

Stevenson keeps a shit eating grin on her face while she watches Scott try his best to hold back his anger. She looks over at Voltage and asks him if he’s ready. Voltage nods. She doesn’t even bother to ask Scott and immediately calls for the bell.

MAIN EVENT
Ace Voltage vs. Chandler Scott

Stevenson motions for both Scott and Voltage to fight. The two grapplers start to make their way out of their respective corners until they stop and take in the chants from the crowd.

“LET’S GO, CHANDLER!”
“CORDY SUCKS!”

“LET’S GO, CHANDLER!”
“CORDY SUCKS!”

“LET’S GO, CHANDLER!”
“CORDY SUCKS!”

Stephy Auger: I should have known better than to expect class from Alabama!

Scott turns to Steveson, points to his ear and then points to the crowd. Stevenson puts her hands up to Scott, rolls to the outside, marches over towards the timekeepers table and snatches the Undisputed Championship off the table before thrusting it high in the air.

“BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!”

Stevenson places her championship back down on the table before getting back in the ring. She once again motions for Scott and Voltage to engage. Both grapplers circle the ring once more. They motion towards the center of the ring for a lockup until Stevenson gets in Scott’s way and motions for him to step back.

Kris Cruise: What is she doing now?

Scott places his hands on his hips and stares daggers at Stevenson while she motions for him to stop. The boos continue as she goes to check Scott’s wrist tape. Scott pulls his wrist away from Stevenson. Once again, Stevenson lets him know who’s in charge by pointing to the crop top referee shirt. Scott rolls his eyes before reluctantly holding his arm out. Stevenson smirks as she checks the tap. She then does the same for the opposite wrist before patting his legs down and checking the knee pads and the boots. Stevenson stands back up and motions for Scott to turn around. Scott protests, but the Undisputed Champion holds her ground. Scott clinches his jaw as he’s fighting the urge to deck Stevenson. But he ultimately thinks better of it and reluctantly turns around. Scott spreads his arms out until Voltage runs over and drops him with a northern lariat from behind!

Kris Cruise: Oh come on!

Stephy Auger: He willingly turned his back. Chandler brought that on himself!

Stevenson cackles while Voltage puts the boots to Scott. The boos continue as Voltage takes Scott, runs into the corner and slams him face-first into the top turnbuckle. After turning Scott around, Voltage lights up his chest with multiple knife edge chops. He takes Scott and delivers an irish whip, sending him into the far corner. Voltage runs across the ring to attack until Scott turns him around with a boot to the face. Voltage staggers away from the corner while Scott steps out to the apron and scales the turnbuckles. Once Voltage turns around, the crowd cheers when Scott leaps off and knocks Voltage down with a Frog Splash Crossbody! Stevenson walks over, gingerly gets down on all fours and starts to count.

O-NO!

The crowd boos as Voltage kicks out.

Kris Cruise: This is ridiculous!

Stephy Auger: I think Chandler almost got him there! HA!

Scott scrambles back to his feet, heads over towards Stevenson and slaps his hands multiple times in her face.

Stephy Auger: Watch those hands, Chandler!

Scott continues to stare Stevenson down until Voltage comes from behind with a schoolboy! Stevenson quickly drops down for the count.

ONE!
.
TWO!
.
TH-NO!

Scott kicks out.

Scott gets back to his feet before Voltage quickly rolls him up in a small package!

ONE!

Voltage shifts his weight back over on top of Scott!

ONE!

TWO!

THR-NO!

Scott kicks out.

Kris Cruise: What the hell is with these counts, Stephy!?

Stephy Auger: They seem even and fair to me. Cordelia is a licensed referee, you know.

Kris Cruise: ...

Both grapplers scramble back to their feet. Scott quickly lifts Voltage up onto his shoulders before Voltage fights him off with elbows to the side of the head. The Pride Champion slips down from behind, takes control of Scott’s back and tries for a German Suplex. Scott counters with a back elbow to the face, performs a standing switch and tries for a German of his own. Voltage blocks the move before countering with another back elbow to the face. Voltage performs another standing switch before going for another German. This time, Scott blocks the move. He then catches Voltage with a back elbow, performs a standing switch and delivers a belly to back suplex toss, sending Voltage over the top rope and to the floor!

Kris Cruise: Chandler just tossed Voltage over the top to the floor!

Stephy Auger: Yeah, with reckless abandon! But we all know how reckless he is, so this shouldn’t come as a surprise.

Kris Cruise: Stop it, Stephy.

Instead of going to the outside to attack Voltage, Scott marches over and gets right in Stevenson’s face. Stevenson goads Scott and tries to get him to punch her. She sticks her chin out towards Scott and taunts him. The crowd buzzes with anticipation as Stevenson even puts her arms behind her back. Scott balls his right hand into a fist and cocks it back.

Kris Cruise: Don’t do it, Chandler! Don’t do it!

The crowd gasps when Scott drops Stevenson with a right hook. NO! Scott throws out the punch, then pulls back at the last second before flipping the bird and keeping the middle finger held right in Stevenson’s face.

Stephy Auger: Who does he think he is to act like that!? That’s our Undisputed Champion he’s doing this to! The nerve!

Stevenson stares daggers at Scott until Voltage quickly takes control of his back and brings him down with three rolling German Suplexes. The boos continue as Voltage pulls Scott back to his feet before throwing him down with a spinning sitout powerbomb! Stevenson slides into place for the count.

ONE!
.
TWO!
.
THR-NO!

The crowd sighs when Scott gets his shoulder up.

Voltage picks up Scott before throwing him down with a vertical suplex. The boos continue as he pulls Scott into a standing headscissors before throwing him down with a Butterfly Suplex. Scott sits up and arches his back until Voltage starts to stomp away at him. He then yanks Scott up off the mat, lifts him up and delivers a back suplex. Voltage goes for the cover.

ONE!
.
TWO!
.
THRE-NO!

The crowd sighs when Scott gets the shoulder up.

Voltage takes Scott and whips him into the corner. The Pride Champion runs over, connects with a clothesline and goes to follow up with a running bulldog out of the corner. Scott counters by shoving Voltage off into the ropes. When he returns, he knocks Scott of his feet with a running lariat. The boos continue as he makes the cover.

ONE!
.
TWO!
.
THRE-NO!

Scott gets the shoulder up.

Kris Cruise: Another nearfall for Chandler Scott. He’s fighting both Ace Voltage and the referee in there!

Stephy Auger: What do you mean? I haven’t seen Cordelia throw a single punch. He just can’t control himself.

Kris Cruise: ...

Voltage takes Scott and whips him into the ropes. Scott returns off the rebound until Voltage catches him in a Sleeper!

Kris Cruise: Chandler’s just been placed in a submission. With Cordy officiating, this is the worst place for him to be.

Scott sees Stevenson heading over towards him. He quickly spins to the side, takes Voltage and goes for a belly to back suplex. Voltage rolls over the shoulder, lands on his feet and follows up with a jumping stomp to the back of the leg. Scott drops down to a knee before Voltage takes off into the ropes. The boos continue when Voltage returns and flattens him with the Ace of Spades (Shining Wizard)! Voltage pulls Scott back to his feet before planting him with a Cradle DDT! He then drags Scott into position before stepping out to the apron. Voltage starts to climb the turnbuckles. Once he gets to the top, he flips off and connects with High Voltage (450 Splash)! NO! The crowd cheers when he bounces off of Scott’s knees.

Kris Cruise: Chandler countered just in time!

Stephy Auger: GAH!

Voltage guards his midsection while he remains curled up on the mat. Across the ring, Scott starts to use the ropes to pull himself back up. He heads back over to Voltage, picks him up off the mat and whips him into the ropes. Voltage returns off the rebound before Scott throws him down with a tilt-a-whirl sidewalk slam! Scott pulls Voltage back to is feet before whipping him into the ropes. When Voltage returns, the crowd cheers when Scott knocks him off his feet with a Pinpoint Dropkick (High angle dropkick to the face)! Scott picks up Voltage, delivers an irish whip, follows him across the ring and connects with a running European Uppercut! Voltage is whipped into the far corner before Scott runs across the ring and nails him with a flying corner forearm smash! Voltage gets lifted up onto the top turnbuckle before Scott plants him with a Top Rope-hung Cutter!

Kris Cruise: Mass Spike!

Stephy Auger: Ace! Ace! Get up!

Scott grabs Voltage, pulls him over towards the center of the ring and pulls him into a front facelock.

Kris Cruise: Uh oh, Stephy! You know what comes next!

Stephy Auger: Ace! Do something!

Scott’s about to plant Voltage with the DNA Driver (Bloody Sunday) when Stevenson drops to a knee behind him and low blows him!

“BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!”

Kris Cruise: What the hell!? Not again! Not another low blow!

Stephy Auger: Wait, look!

Voltage falls to the mat while Scott remains doubled over. The camera cuts to Stevenson, who is clutching her arm in pain. Scott slowly stands back up with a smirk on his face. He then reaches down his tights and pulls out a metal cup.

Kris Cruise: Chandler came prepared! He wasn’t about to let Cordy low blow him again! Not this time!

Stephy Auger: That son of a...

Scott tosses the cup to the side before crouching down in front of Stevenson and starts to taunt her. Stevenson responds by yelling at him. Scott just responds with a smirk as he stands back up. Scott turns around before Voltage sending him crumbling to the mat with a kick below the belt.

“BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!”

Stephy Auger: Oh man! I’m sure the fans all the way up in the cheap seats can hear Chandler crying after that kick!

Voltage takes Scott, delivers an irish whip, runs across the ring and sends him crumbling out of the corner with Thunderstruck (Helluva Kick)! He makes the cover while Stevenson heads over and makes the dramatic count.

ONE!
.
.
.
.
TWO!
.
.
.
.
THREE!

The crowd erupts with boos as “Thunderstruck” blares throughout the arena.

J.A. Aldridge: Ladies and gentlemen, the winner of this bout… ACE VOLTAGE!

The boos continue as Stevenson put the boots to Voltage post-match!

Kris Cruise: What are they doing!?

Stephy Auger: Beating up Chandler! What the heck does it look like, Cruise!? They’re standing right in front of us!

Kris Cruise: ...

Stevenson and Voltage continue to stomp away on Scott until Stevenson goes over and nudges Voltage out of the way. Stevenson reaches down, lifts up Scott’s legs before stepping through them and crossing them.

Kris Cruise: Enough of this!

Stephy Auger: It looks like Cordelia’s about to make Chandler tap out yet again with CHANDLER COULD NEVER!

The boos turn to cheers as Lowri Moss charges down to the ring.

Kris Cruise: LOWRI MOSS! LOWRI MOSS IS OUT HERE!

Stephy Auger: Who told her to come out here!? Her night is already done!

As soon as Moss slides in, Stevenson lets go of Scott, pushes Voltage in front of her and rolls to the outside. Voltage puts his hands up defensively and backs away from Moss before heading to the outside.

Kris Cruise: Did you see that!? Cordy just tried to throw Ace into the line of fire.

Stephy Auger: No, what I saw was Ace acting valiantly and throwing himself in front of our esteemed Undisputed Champion! We are truly blessed to have that man as our Pride Champion.

Kris Cruise: ...

Moss looks back and forth between both Voltage and Stevenson on the outside. Voltage is quick to make his way up the ramp while keeping his arms held high in victory before disappearing through the curtain. At ringside, Stevenson snatches the Undisputed Championship and clutches it close to her chest. She narrows her eyes at Moss as she backs away from the ringside area and heads up the aisle.

Kris Cruise: Cordy Stevenson could very well be staring at the woman that will be standing across from her on Night Two of All-Star Showdown X

Moss climbs up to the middle ropes, points to Stevenson and does the belt motion around her waist. Stevenson shakes her head at Moss until she sees the fans looking behind her. Stevenson turns and sees Anders making her way through the curtain!

Kris Cruise: … but she has to get throw Izzy Anders on Night One first!

Stevenson remains in the middle of the ring. She looks back to both Anders and Moss before thrusting the Undisputed Championship high above her head.
