Legendary 35 (31 January 2023)

[Legal Department]

Ricky Stanton walks up with some of his friends talking and swipes a card...he swipes again, and again, nothing works.

Ricky Stanton: I'm sorry guys apparently my card doesn't work.

Official: OH, Mr. Stanton! I'm so sorry! Welcome back sir.

Ricky Stanton: Yeah, thanks I was --

Official: The wrestlers’ locker rooms are down that way. This is just for staff.

Crowd: Ooooooooohhhhh!!!

Ricky Stanton: (Smirks, shakes his head...) Um, yeah, you're right....this is for....staff. Guys, my apologies...let's head to my locker room.....

The group leaves with Stanton looking back over his shoulder one last time.

Taj: Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to LEGENDARY THIRTY-FIVE!!

America: As customary, this is the part I tell you to shut up and let's get into some great 1WM wrestling action!

Reverb: Hey, friends!

Reverb smiled happily.

Reverb: You're probably wondering what's a Reverb? Huh. I promise, you'll find out soon enough.

Reverb smiled, this was it. Make it or break it? It was time to prove to the world that this rookie, this underdog was no freakin' joke.

Reverb: Tonight, I face another newcomer, Davey Drake. Bet he's lookin' to make an impact as well. But he's never been inside the square circle with someone like me. I won't claim to be the best, but I'm a force and I should never be taken lightly.

Reverb smiled. Win or lose this surely would be a lesson for her. It'd just push her harder, do more work.

Reverb: It's my time to shine tonight, tune in and watch THE REVERB make an impactful sound.

Debut Match
Davey Drake vs. Reverb

DING DING DING!!!

Reverb and Davey begin to circle one another. Reverb shoots in and the two grapple, she manages to muscle Davey into a headlock, but the well traveled wrestler spins out. Each wrestler takes a step back and shakes it off before locking up again. They push back and forth and finally Davey gains the advantage, pulling Reverb into a headlock of his own and wrenches it a few times before Reverb pushes him off toward the ropes. Davey turns around and hits Reverb with a hard right. Reverb wobbles a bit and then returns with a strike of her own. She backs up a few steps and springboards off of the ropes turning into a crossbody block.

Reverb pulls Davey to his feet and whips him into the ropes. Davey ducks under a clothesline attempt by Reverb. Davey waits for Reverb to turn around and kicks her in the gut and drops her with a DDT! Davey covers.

One…

Two…

THR…KICK OUT!!

Davey pulls Reverb to her feet and whips her into the ropes. Davey attempts a big boot but Reverb slides under his legs and hits him with a German suplex. She holds on and rolls over and hits Davey with another and a third!

Taj: Both newcomers lay exhausted on the mat.

America: C’mon already! I got a steak dinner waiting for me when we get done here!

Davey begins to stir first. He gets to his knees and attempts to shake away the cobwebs as Reverb gets to her feet. Reverb runs at Davey and kicks at him, but Davey grabs her leg and hits an exploder suplex! Davey covers.

One…

Two…

THREE!!

Torres: The winner of this match is… Davey Drake!

Davey helps Reverb to her feet as the crowd cheers the two newcomers.

Tag Team Match
Sally FKA and Jessica Anderson vs. Miku Asakusa and Tim Brody

Tim steps into the ring to get things started for his team. On the other end of the ring, Jessica steps into the ring as well. The referee calls for the bell and the match is officially underway.

DING DING DING!!!

Jessica dares Tim to give him her best shot. Tim – never one to back down from a fight – charges forward and begins to hit Jessica with a series of right hands. Blow after blow connects with Jessica as she begins to stumble back from the impact. Tim smirks and grabs hold of Jessica in an effort to shoot her across the ring. Jessica reverses the attempt and waits for Tim to come back on the rebound before hitting him with a huge lunging clothesline that nearly takes Tim’s head off! She grabs hold of Tim and begins to wear him down with a series of clubbing blows.

Jessica drives her knee hard into Tim’s ribs and gets him to double over in pain. Jessica then grabs hold of him in a headlock! Tim frees himself from Jessica’s grasp before she can do anything. Tim leaps into the air and catches Jessica with a vicious knee shot to the face! The impact of the knee sends Jessica staggering back. Jessica tries to recover as she runs forward. Tim leapfrogs over her and grabs hold of Jessica from behind! He tries to lift Jessica into the air for a German suplex—only to have Jessica respond with an elbow to the mouth! Tim stumbles back toward the turnbuckle—only to have Jessica follow in hot pursuit! Suddenly, Tim drops down and hits Jessica with a drop-toe-hold! Jessica’s head bounces off of the turnbuckle padding!

Tim grabs hold of Jessica and hits her with a series of elbow strikes to try and wear her down. Jessica shoves Tim away. Jessica charges and gets caught with a belly to belly suplex! Tim walks over to his corner of the ring and tags Miku into the match. Miku remains on the apron as Tim charges at Jessica! Jessica hits Tim with a forearm smash that knocks him to the mat—only to have Miku springboard into the ring to hit Jessica with a dropkick! She hooks the leg and goes for the cover.

One…

Two…

TH…KICK OUT!!

Jessica tries to drag herself back up to her feet. Miku lines herself up with Jessica and steps forward, trying to send her crashing to the mat with a perfectly timed superkick! Jessica catches her foot in the air and shakes her head! She effortlessly tosses her down to the mat. Miku pops right back up to her feet and kicks Jessica away from her! Miku bounces off of the ropes and jumps at Jessica, hitting her with a knee strike that sends Jessica staggering back to her corner of the ring. When Jessica hits the turnbuckle, Sally tags herself into the match. She steps into the ring and begins to check on the condition of Jessica. Miku charges at her and tries for a handspring enziguri. Sally steps out of the way!

Sally grabs hold of Miku and tries to lock in a single legged crab, but Miku is able to flip out of it. She kicks Sally in the jaw and creates a bit of space to pull herself back up to her feet. Sally runs at her and tries to set Miku up for a swinging neckbreaker. Miku creates enough space to avoid the attempt. She tries to swing Sally into position for a Russian leg sweep, but Sally fights out of the attempt with an elbow shot! She tries to grab Miku to set her up for a move, but Tim charges into the ring and delivers a big boot to the back of Sally’s head! Sally starts to pull herself back up to her feet. She seems somewhat out of it but nonetheless yells at Miku to take her best shot. Miku charges forward and delivers Destinato (spear)! Sally heads bangs back hard onto the canvas as Miku hooks her leg for the cover.

One…

Two…

THREE!!!

Torres: The winner of this match...the team of Miku Asakusa and Tim Brody!!

Taj: Sally FKA is unconscious!

America: That chick is a walking concussion!

EMTs rush down to check on Sally as Jessica looks on. Tim and Miku celebrate their victory as they walk up the ramp.

“Ya Girl” Q stands in the ring as we come back from the commercial with the 1WM World Title over her shoulder, the crowd giving her a mixture of cheers and jeers.

America: That’s a champion to be proud of, won it in one hell of match last week and the crowd is on their feet cheering for her right now.

Taj: That might be an over exaggeration but there are some cheers. Q won the World Heavyweight Championship in front of Mr. Samson and Ricky Stanton! Two men who have been VERY influential in her life!

Q: I’m not gonna stand here and lie to all of you. You all know that Ya Girl Q speaks whatever comes to mind at any given moment. From day one of One Wrestle Movement I have been passed by each and every competitor en route to this title. From day one I fought the system and scraped and clawed my way to the top. I’ve been deemed lazy, crass, in over my head but I did this all on my own. I earned this title and I just have one thing to say to all of you out there… (long pause) I stand here with the utmost respect for all those who held this title before me and I’m just….

Just then “Back in Black” hits the speakers and Q can’t hold it back as “Pretty” Ricky Stanton runs down to the ring, slides in and gives her the biggest hug!

Taj: These two have known each other for years! She stayed at Stanton Manor for some time! She was one of his wrestlers in Blood and Nation! He always talked about her being someone that would one day win it all and she has done that! This is a proud father moment!!!

America: But he hasn’t been here in years - absentee father maybe? Joshua Samson has been putting in the work!

Taj: Beyond the point! This is ground zero for her whether we like it or not! Ricky is the cornerstone!

Stanton steps back from the embrace and gets a mic.

Ricky Stanton: When I met you several years ago you were this energetic young wrestler who was looking for opportunities. You were very humble in that process and was proud of any chance you got. Look at you now, the 1WM World Champion.

Crowd cheers as Q smiles at everyone.

Ricky Stanton: I cannot tell you how proud I am of you. I cannot tell you how sorry I am at the same time. The time in which you needed me the most, I wasn’t there. And I own that. I own the fact you had to get help from…..The Sampson family…..I own that I left you to fend for yourself, to figure it out without my guidance, and for that, all I can say is that I’m sorry and I can only hope to stand back in your shadow and watch you do your thing as champion.

Taj: Very humbling for Ricky, we obviously don’t know the true depths of their relationship obviously.

America: Why does he always say Sampson? It’s Samson.

Crowd cheers again.

Ricky Stanton: But the fact ISSSSS…I was there to help you. I was there when you wanted to hang out under the Learning Tree known as Stanton Manor. I was there to give you opportunities in my own promotions. I was there to push you in different feds and I was there to promote you when you needed that. And that, yes, I do take credit for and I do believe it got you to where you are now. So in all reality, you are still part of SE, which is now Stanton Media United.

America: This guy is delusional! Where is Joshua?

Ricky Stanton: And in all reality, that belt you got right there. That belt that is the product of my investment into this company, that belt around your waist represents the Stanton identity and honestly, ME.

Q tries to understand the logic.

Ricky Stanton: IN fact, in a sense, I kinda feel owed. I kinda feel like I deserve the first title shot for your 1WM Championship.

The crowd boo.

Taj: This is a lot but I don’t know!

America: SHE OWES STANTON NOTHING!

Ricky Stanton: So here’s what I want you to do Q (gets closer) You’re a lot like Justinia. You’re like a daughter to me. And I know you wanted to be champion so bad. And I know you feel like you deserve to be champion, but the fact of the matter is, I AM OWED THAT TITLE (points on the belt) So why don’t we get a ref down here. You lay right there in the middle of the ring. Let me pin you, and I take over as 1WM Champion (People boo loudly) because YOU OWE ME FOR MY TIME, MY MONEY, MY FOOD, MY SHELTER, MY EVERYTHING AND THAT’S THE ONE THING I CAME BACK FOR, MY PRECIOUS, THAT IS OWED TO ME, THIS WHOLE COMPANY OWES ME HELL EVEN THOSE FAT HOGS DOWN THERE COMMENTATING OWE ME, THIS FAN BASE OWES ME AND IT BEGINS WITH YOU TAKING THE DAMN KNEE AND GIVING ME THAT BELT THAT IS OWED TO ME….

Q steps back in complete disbelief. Stanton is yelling at her off the mic where we can’t hear it but he’s motioning her to do as he says and she turns her back to him and the crowd erupts in cheers.

Taj: I can’t believe what we’re seeing right now! Ricky is so jealous that he is demanding for Q to lay down for him and give him the 1WM World Heavyweight Championship!

America: I told you that he was delusional!

Stanton yells at her and grabs her arm to spin her back around but she instead counters by clocking him in the side of the head with the title! Stanton goes down hard!

Crowd: HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT!

Q steps back in complete shock with tears as she looks at a motionless Stanton in the ring! She sits on a corner turnbuckle as EMS rush in to tend to Stanton. She watches and then picks up a mic.

Q: Wake up Pretty Boy…. Wake up. I want you to hear me when I say this (fighting back tears) You’re right. You were like a father to me but right now, you’ve shown that NONE OF THOSE YEARS MEANT ANYTHING TO YOU. NONE OF THEM! All you see is someone standing in the way of your Championship goals and you could GIVE A DAMN ABOUT ME. There’s one thing for certain. I became a threat the MOMENT I won this title, even for you. Of all people. I wanted to be happy you saw me win and now I realize that will be just a fleeting memory. You gave me everything I thought I ever needed but you’ve already shown your true colors. Well, I got news for you. You should have stayed wherever you were the past two years.

Q throws the mic at Stanton as he looks at her fuming and breathing hard. She wipes away a tear in her eyes before rolling out the ring and back of the ramp as people chant for Q which comes as a shock even to her.

Tag Team Match
The Mechanical Animals (“The Blackhart” Wil Pierce and “The Dark Phoenix” Raijin Hunter) vs.
Pernicious (Matthiesen and Hansen)

With both teams in the ring, Mechanical Animals crack both members of Pernicious in the back causing the referee to call for the bell.

DING DING DING!!!

Matthiesen falls to one knee and almost immediately bounces back upright while Hansen falls to all fours. Wil pulls Matthiesen up into a wheelbarrow hold then into a slingshot sitout facebuster by Rai! The crowd is in awe as Mechanical Animals stand back up and turn their attention to Hansen.

Taj: How can you say you enjoy this when this is just a mauling?!

America: It’s what needs to happen, Taj. Pernicious need to learn…

Taj: Learn what?

America: That their shit got old months ago!

Wil and Raijin both get in a stomp on Matthiesen before walking closer to Hansen. Hansen gets up and throws wild punches that land on nothing but air. Raijin kicks Hansen in the gut and Hansen doubles over in pain. Wil hooks Hansen’s head and hits Knight Rider (snap double underhook DDT)! Raijin nods and the two stare down at their prey. Wil walks over to Matthiesen and hits him with Horror Business (small package brainbuster)! Raijin cruelly snickers as Wil makes his way back to Hansen. Mechanical Animals pull Hansen’s near limp body up and hit The Ace of Spades (Wil and Rai both grab ahold of an arm of a kneeling opponent before they each raise an arm into the air and then drop it, before turning towards their opponent and quickly driving their respective knees into their opponent's face. Also known as the Golden Lovers')! Raijin covers.

One…

Two…

THREE!!

Taj: You enjoyed that.

America: I always enjoy it when decent wrestlers show their abilities.

Taj: So you think that’s what that was?

America: That was Mechanical Animals showing Pernicious their place!

Torres: Here are your winners….Wil Pierce and Raijin Hunter….The Mechanical Animals!

Standing outside the dressing room of the 1WM World Heavyweight Champion, “Ya Girl” Q, knocking ever so gently on the door is Joshua Samson, Esquire. As always THE Executive Representative is immaculately dressed in a tailored Navy blue suit.

Samson: Q, it’s me Joshua.

There is a barely audible “go away” from behind the door.

Samson: I just want to check on you. I saw what went down out there and I hate to say I told you so but….Anyway, just let me in so we can talk.

Again there is a barely audible “go away” from behind the door.

Samson: Well…umm…okay. I’ll return closer to main event time, Susan/i].

Joshua reaches for the door handle but at the last moment pulls back. With a resounding exhale, he turns and makes his way down the hall.

Tag Team Match
Toxic Twins ("The Entitled" Sofia Masalis and Blake Belladonna) vs. The Headhunters (Eric and Dexter Calloway)

Taj: You have to feel bad for Toxic Twins…

America: Just because The Headhunters are going to make an example out of the two of them doesn’t mean that they’re screwed!

Taj: Doesn’t it?

America: Okay, so it might…

Dexter and Eric both look at one another and nod. They stand in their corner of the ring and wait as the Toxic Twins continue to discuss strategy with one another, preparing for the upcoming match. A few seconds later, the referee calls for the bell and the match is officially underway.

DING DING DING!!!

Almost immediately, Dexter and Eric charge at their opponents and begin to pound away on them with a series of strikes. Blow after blow connects as the two try to take control of the match. The Toxic Twins appear to be ready for a fight of their own as Sofia and Blake both fight back with right hands. The fans are on their feet as the Toxic Twins knock Dexter away from Eric. They look at one another and nod. The two then shoot Dexter across the ring and wait for him to come back on the rebound---launching him into the air with a double back body drop! They then turn around as Eric charges at them---and gets slammed to the mat with a double hip toss! Sofia and Blake high five each other in the center of the ring.

Taj: I don’t think that this was the start to this match that Eric and Dexter were hoping for!

America: Not even a little bit…but don’t you worry, things are just getting started!

The two women turn around and focus their attention on Eric, who is slowly beginning to pull himself back up to his feet. The Toxic Twins wait patiently for the perfect moment to strike. Unfortunately for them, it doesn’t happen---Dexter jump Sofia from behind and locking in a sleeperhold! He tries to lock it in tight, but Sofia responds by flipping Dexter over her back! Blake briefly loses her focus, which gives Eric the opening that he needs to run forward and hit Blake in the jaw with a jumping knee strike!

Blake tries to regain her balance, but is unable to do so before Eric grabs hold of her and locks in a sleeperhold! Sofia notices and tries to charge at the two in an effort to break up the hold, but is unable to do so as Dexter cuts her off with a drop-toe-hold! Smirking, Dexter locks in a crossface chicken wing! The two former Tag Champs keep their holds locked in perfectly, as the Toxic Twins briefly try to do what they can to escape the holds. They’re unable to do so and begin to tap on the mat frantically! The referee calls for the bell. This doesn’t seem to stop either Dexter or Eric, as they keep their holds applied until the referee finally forces them to let go.

Torres: The winners of this match...Eric and Dexter Calloway…The Headhunters!!

Taj: These two have shown time and time again that if they can get started, they’re hard to beat.

America: They wanted to send a message to the tag division tonight, and honestly, I think they did just that!

Scene opens inside the home office of the One Wrestle Movement Tag Team Champions, the Fallen Angels. Damon and Aurora are sitting on opposite sides of a walnut desk, currently in the last moments of a phone call.

Male Voice: So you’ve both had a chance to look over the documents I’ve sent you?

Aurora Graves: Yes, we have.

Male Voice: Do either of you have any questions?

Damon Graves: No, everything looks pretty cut and dried. We’ll get back to you in a couple of days…

Male Voice: Good. Well, I won’t keep you from any pressing business…

Tha call disconnects from the other end. Aurora reaches over to hang up the phone on their end. With that, both of the Graves’ turn to face the camera.

Damon Graves: In case you were wondering about that phone call, keep wondering…

Aurora Graves: What Damon is trying to say is that we have some things in the works that need to stay under wraps for the time being.

Damon Graves: Besides, we need to address what’s going on with Legendary 35..

Aurora Graves: In a bit of a twist, our match at Legendary is a simple one fall, non-title tag team match… no crazy stipulations, no vendetta to settle…

Damon Graves: Sounds like a cakewalk, right?

Both of them chuckle.

Aurora Graves: You’d be dead wrong.

Damon Graves: Ya see, we didn’t win these titles by being lazy, and we certainly didn’t manage to keep them by resting on our laurels.

Aurora Graves: Enders… Hendrix.. Both of you are relative newcomers here in One Wrestle Movement. You’ve had a relative handful of matches as solo competitors and only two matches as a team…

Damon Graves: And yet, here you are, just your third match as a team and you get the distinction of facing the champs… no pressure.

Aurora shakes her head.

Aurora Graves: But you need to understand the way we work. We don’t half-ass things… EVER.

Damon Graves: If you’ve gotten this idea that we’re going to take it easy just because the titles aren’t on the line, you SERIOUSLY need to wake up. We’re going into this match the same way we would go into a title defense… 100% focus, maximum effort.

Aurora Graves: It’s nothing personal. Look at it this way… this is the perfect opportunity for you to show the world what Powerhouse Neon is all about as a team. Past wins and losses aren’t a factor; you have a blank canvas and can paint your own pictures.

Damon Graves: But it works the same way for us. We get another opportunity to serve notice as to WHY we’re the best damn team in One Wrestle Movement without being distracted by any extraneous bullshit.

Aurora Graves: So, ladies, we fully expect you to bring everything you’ve got. DON’T disappoint us…

Scene fades out.

In-Return Match
“Pretty” Ricky Stanton vs. Marie Laurant (cornered by Kelli Saint)

The referee looks at both wrestlers to make sure they're ready before calling for the bell.

DING DING DING!!!

Marie and Ricky both stare each other down for a few moments. Suddenly, both rush toward the middle of the ring. They begin to exchange hard right hands with one another as they battle for the advantage. The fans are on their feet as Ricky and Marie continue to exchange vicious blows with one another. Finally, Marie seems like she's gaining control. She knocks Ricky back against the ropes and shoots him across the ring. She meets Ricky in the center and nearly takes his head off with a huge lunging clothesline!

Taj: Very quick start to this one for Marie!

America: With Kelli in her corner she can’t go wrong!

Taj: You have to wonder if the shot Ricky took from Q with the World Championship belt will play a factor in this match?

Marie grabs hold of Ricky and drags him back up to his feet. She hits him with a chop to the chest, and then a second.

Crowd: WOOO! WOOO!

Ricky struggles to stay upright as Marie pulls Ricky in. She hoists him into the air and slams Ricky to the mat with a vertical suplex!

Taj: It's easy to forget just how good of a wrestler Marie Laurant can be!

America: If she can keep this up, it's going to be one hell of an upset!

Ricky pulls himself back up to his feet and creates space between himself and Marie. Kelli cheers on Marie. Marie quickly closes that space as she hits Ricky with a series of more hard chops.

Crowd: WOOO! WOOOO!

Marie then grabs hold of Ricky and shoots him across the ring once again. This time, when Ricky comes back, Marie gets a foot in the air and tries to send Ricky to the mat with a big boot! Ricky ducks the attempt and continues to run. He bounces off of the ropes and dives at Marie's knee---hitting her with a chop block that sends Marie to the mat! Marie tries to pull herself back up to her feet in a hurry, but she's caught by surprise with a running knee strike!

Taj: Shots like that are exactly what Ricky needs if he's going to get back in this match!

Marie once again drops to a knee, but manages to drag herself back up to her feet. She glares at Ricky and dares him to give her his best shot. The fans are on their feet as Ricky nods and bounces off of the ropes---kicking Marie in the jaw with a Mafia kick! Marie drops to the mat before Ricky pulls her up and delivers a running powerslam! Ricky hooks the leg and goes for the cover.

One…

Two…

TH…KICK OUT!!

Marie tries to stumble back up to her feet. Ricky closes the gap and grabs hold of Marie from behind. He shakes his head and tries to power Marie into the air for a German suplex. Marie blocks the attempt and spins Ricky around, hitting him in the mouth with an elbow smash! Ricky staggers back from the impact. Marie bounces off of the ropes---and Kelli bashes her in the back of the head with a steel chair!

Crowd: HOLY SHIT!

Taj: Did you see that?! What is Kelli doing?!

America: Of course I saw it but I don’t think Ricky or the ref did!

Ricky walks over to the clearly out of it Marie Laurant and drags her back up to her feet. He kicks Marie in the ribs and plants her on the mat with Pretty Boy Drop (reverse DDT)! Ricky hooks the leg and goes for the cover.

One…

Two…

THREE!!

Torres: The winner of this match...Ricky Stanton!!

Taj: Ricky won but it was a clear assist from Kelli. Do you think Ricky and Kelli are in cahoots, America?

America: No way. No way, Taj. Maybe it’s just Kelli putting the final nail in the coffin of the Royal Court? That’s got to be it.

Kelli turns and walks up the rampway, Ricky still not aware of the betrayal.

As we come back from break there is bright purple velvet carpet on the mat along with two black italian leather chairs. In between them would be a clear table that looked like glass but was crystal. There would be a vase of red roses sitting on that table as well. A few moments after the camera man shows the stuff in the ring “Fighter” by Christina Aguilera begins to play over the pa system and out walks Justice Cross. She would look out at the fans in attendance that night and make her way down to the ring before getting in. Smirking a bit she walked to her chair grabbing her mic and sat down.

Justice Cross: Wow, look at all of you. Sitting out there paying your hard earned money to come here to see this show. And when I say this show I actually mean Legendary. I get it though, I really do. None of you came here to see my show did you? Honestly, it’s ok if you didn’t because I don’t really give a rats ass what you people think. I mean I didn’t create this show for any of you. No, I created it for those in the back that weren’t getting the opportunities that they deserved. I felt that they like all of the rest of us should be getting their television time and that’s why I do this. Not because I’m trying to be some, how do you all put it in the back? Oh right “some dumb talk show host” or “Oprah”.

She would pour herself some water and set the pitcher down to take a drink. After that drink she would sit there looking around at the fans. She would wave to a small girl that was standing on a chair to see over the barricade before holding the mic back up near her lips.

Justice Cross: Tonight I was supposed to have two guests, William Ryder and a special guest. However, I canceled the special guest just so I can get the hell out of this place right after the show. Oh and by the way, that special guest would have been me. You know who didn’t get canceled? William Ryder. And that is because I give my guests the respect they deserve and let them be heard since they deserve that as well. Now we all know he recently made his return to not just One Wrestle but to the One Wrestling ring and when he did that he had a match at Massive against Driller.

She hears the fans cheering for Driller’s mom as well as a mixed reaction for Driller.

Justice Cross: Yeah, I know right? Apparently my comments about watching out for uneven pavement kind of made him angry. But I meant it out of the goodness of my heart because well, I’m kind of been a mom for fifteen years now you guys and us moms say stuff like that. Can you believe that Ryder lost that match? For someone so determined to beat Driller he should have won but hey I guess he just wasn’t hungry enough for the win. Who wants to hear from him? -listens to the fans- Ladies and gentlemen at this time would you please welcome my guest for tonight’s Justice for All, Willliaaam Ryyyddder.

[i[However long that it takes
I'll go to whatever lengths
It's gonna make me a monster though
I am phenomenal

[/div][/i][/center]

The crowd showed a mixed reaction towards the opening chords to Eminem's "Phenomenal" began to consume the attention of the audience. A hungry and extremely motivated William Ryder made his presence known the moment he emerged from behind the eerie black colored curtain.

However long that it takes
I'll go to whatever lengths
It's gonna make me a monster though
I am phenomenal

The entire crowd would begin to gravitate their focus towards a man who had no desire to cater to their futile opinions about him. The former inaugural EHWF Anarchy World Champion stood at the top of the entrance ramp supporting a black zip-up hoodie that supported a golden crown symbol on the front left chest, the words "Natural Born Nightmare" written across the back also in gold print. He supported a pair of long black tights with a golden skull wearing a crown with the words "Nightmare King" written above and below it. Two black knee pads with the right knee displaying the same skull wearing a crown logo in the center. Beneath the black hoodie he kept un-zipped in order to show off his incredible physique and perhaps the most impressive six pack in pro wrestling, he also wore a plain black elbow pad over his left elbow for both support and comfort. The rest of his attire consisted of matching black and gold kick-padded boots and a pair of black blackhawk full length tactical gloves over his hands.

With every ounce of my blood
With every breath in my lungs
I am phenomenal

He slowly began a slow walk towards the ring for the sole purpose of making Justice sit and wait on him knowing damn well it got underneath her skin. He slowly began to circle the outside of the ring like a great white shark circling its wounded prey a moment before it strikes, never once shying his eyesight away from her. He casually slid into the ring beneath the bottom rope before lifting himself up onto one knee directly in front of the turnbuckle. He smirked, making sure to never break eye contact withJustice then. He once again continued to take his time removing the hoodie from his ripped body before tossing it over the top rope and onto the outside floor.

However long that it takes
I'll go to whatever lengths
It's gonna make me a monster though
I am phenomenal

He made his way to his chair sitting down after picking up his mic.

Justice Cross: First of all, thank you so much for graciously accepting my invitation to be on my show tonight. It means a l-

William Ryder: Where’s your title?

Justice Cross: I left it at home. I told you I wasn’t going to have it tonight. But William I have some questions to ask you if that’s ok?

William Ryder: Go ahead, I don’t have all night since you know, I have to hurt your little best friend.

Justice Cross: You need to show some respect please.

William Ryder: Just ask me whatever you are going to so I can get to my match.

Justice Cross: Fine. First of all, welcome back to One Wrestle Movement. Second of all, what have you been up to during your time away from One Wrestle Movement?

William Ryder: I'm not gonna lie to you all, but my time away from wrestling was hard to deal with the first few months. I never had so much free time in my entire life and it drove me bat shit crazy! I finally decided on buying a new home and spent a ton of time and money renovating in order to make it the way I want. But once the house was finally finished I needed something else to keep my mind busy and began my life as a gym rat over the next couple of months. During that time I received an unexpected phone call from one of my old friends and colleagues, Chris Crippler. The two of us talked for hours and before I knew it good ole' Double C had somehow convinced me to buy a plane ticket and travel all the way to Colchester, Essex. England to train with him. Training with Chris and his team ended up waking up a fire inside me that I haven't felt in a very long time. I don't think William Ryder returns to Pro Wrestling in 2022 if not for Chris Crippler, and I have him to thank for giving me the confidence I needed to have in order to step back in the ring at the age of thirty five years old.

Justice Cross: Ok, ok. So you had a lot of free time. I really like that answer William. But now I want to transition from that answer into the answer for my next question. My next question is how do you feel about losing your return match in this company when you lost to Driller?

William Ryder: People who follow this company know how much Driller and I hate each other. Part of me wakes up every morning to the reality that he was able to beat me at Massive III. I literally threw everything and the kitchen sink at that stupid Neanderthal, but he just kept on getting up asking for more punishment. I might not like Driller Jaworski, but the bastard can take a beating unlike no other and that's something even I need to give him props on. The war between the two of us is far from being over and done with. Driller, I want you to enjoy this win over me for as long as you can because the next time you step inside the ring with me, you will not be the one walking away with your arm raised. But I'm done talking about the past and am solely focusing on the future. Brianna Matthews is the only one who will have my full attention heading into Legendary 35.

Justice Cross: Speaking of Brianna Matthews, you know she is my bestie right?

William Ryder: Bestie or not I’m going to be fighting her in a match in just a few seconds.

Justice Cross: I just want to know what your thoughts are about this match with her? I mean on one hand we have you who lost your return match last month. And on the other hand we have Brianna who really hasn’t done anything even though she tires.

William Ryder: Brianna Matthews is an experienced professional wrestler and that part of me has nothing but respect for her. I will not make the mistake of underestimating her because of her gender. Brianna Matthews will end up being a tough test but at the end of the night I will be the one walking away with a victory over her. I want her to take a long hard look at that television screen and realize that the man standing in the ring right now will stop at nothing until what I came to 1WM to capture. Brianna, tonight you will find yourself trapped inside the Kezar Pavilion with one of the best Professional Wrestlers in the world, William fucking Ryder!

Justice Cross: You heard him folks. Now if you don’t mind William we will get this cleared out of my ring, I mean the ring. And then your match can take place since it starts right now.

Saying that Justice would motion for her new crew to get in the ring. They each quickly grabbed something and quickly left the ring with it. She then went to the ropes stepping through onto the apron where she hopped down looking towards the ramp to see Brianna walk out.

Taj: It seems that the upcoming match is about to start right now.

America: Might as well get it over with. That makes it one more match closer to my steak dinner.

Once Brianna is down by the ring the best friends look at each other exchanging pleasantries. Justice finally goes to the back as the match starts.

Raijin Hunter: Pardon me, brother, but I’ve got something on my mind. You see what we’ve done tonight is just another fine example of why Cedric hired myself and Wil here and thus far our track record has been nothingless than fucking spectular.

The One Wrestle cameras go backstage with Butterscotch Monroe standing ready for her next interview. She receives her cue as Aleki Kekoa, steps into the camera shot.

Butterscotch Monroe: Ladies and gentlemen, we're moments away from tonight's Legendary main event tag match between the team of 1WM World Heavyweight Champion "Ya Girl" Q and Jacob Striker versus "The Prodigy" Daniel Wolf and my next guest "The Samoan War Machine" Aleki Kekoa.

Aleki looks up at the camera with a cold stare.

Butterscotch Monroe: Aleki, you've made quite the impact since debuting at Massive 3 last month. You've put the entire 1WM roster on notice and have delivered quite the message. What are your thoughts as you go into your first Legendary and in the main event no less?

The Samoan War Machine rubs his beard momentarily before returning his steely gaze at the camera.

Aleki Kekoa: My thoughts, Ms. Monroe? That it should be a GIVEN that the Samoan War Machine is in the main event here in One Wrestle Movement! I was destined for greatness long before I was even born. The Kekoa family name is LEGENDARY. Three generations of Kekoas have come before me and changed the landscape of professional wrestling. Beginning with my great-grandfather, High Chief Afualo Kekoa, who established the Kekoa name in this business, to my grandfather, 12-time World Champion Leiataua Kekoa, who held the World Title for nearly a decade, to even my father Fata Kekoa, who is the most sought-after and innovative wrestling promoter in the Pacific territory, they have all paved the way for the Samoan War Machine to step up to his destiny. The Kekoa family is wrestling royalty and it's time the rest of the world recognizes the inevitable especially the champions of 1WM and in particular the World Heavyweight Champion "Ya Girl" Q.

The Senior Backstage Interviewer nods in approval of Aleki's comments before posing her next question.

Butterscotch Monroe: In the lead-up to tonight's main event, you got into it quite heavily on social media with Jacob Striker. There seems to be some bad blood between you both. What's going on there?

A small snarl forms on Aleki's face at the mention of Striker before he looks at the camera.

Aleki Kekoa: Let's just say that Jacob Striker has quite the "reputation" in the Pacific and Asian territories. And it's not a good thing. Plus, the Kekoa family and two-time 1WM World Champion Erick St. John go way back. ESJ is the reason the Samoan War Machine signed with One Wrestle. So I'm going to finish what Erick started. Tonight, Ms. Monroe, Jacob Striker gets a preview of his fate.

Butterscotch accepts the Samoan War Machine's comments momentarily and poses her next question.

Butterscotch Monroe: Any comments for your tag partner, Daniel Wolf?

Aleki smirks, even cracks a smile as he shakes his head.

Aleki Kekoa: The mangy mut who believes he's a legendary wolf?! Please, Ms. Monroe. He's a non-factor. Is the "Prodigy" even here tonight? Maybe it's way passed his bedtime. If he shows, he shows. I'm prepared to take on Q and Striker on my own. But if Wolf does show up, he better own up to his end of the match or I'm putting the mangy mut out of his misery.

The Senior Backstage Interviewer asks her final question.

Butterscotch Monroe: Any final thoughts before you head out to ringside, Aleki?

Aleki stares intensely at the camera.

Aleki Kekoa: It's time the world recognizes the inevitable. The sooner the better. I am Aleki Kekoa, the next generation of the great Kekoa family and it is MY destiny to rule professional wrestling with greatness and an iron fist. All great kings were once great warriors and that is who I am. I am the Samoan War Machine. It's time One Wrestle Movement RECOGNIZES its future!

Butterscotch Monroe: Best of luck, Aleki.

The Samoan War Machine gives one final glare at the camera before stepping away to head for ringside.

Taj: These two have no reason that they shouldn’t be able to get along, and yet…

America: You have to wonder if they actually will be able to get along! Jacob can set his sights on Q at any moment…

The World Champ and Akeli both step into the ring to get things started for their team as the referee calls for the bell and the match is officially underway!

DING DING DING!!!

Almost immediately, Q runs across the ring and blasts Akeli in the face with a hard right hand. He follows it up with a second and then a third.

Q slingshots off of them and charges forward---hitting Akeli with a massive lunging clothesline that sends him stumbling back! Akeli stays on his feet and chuckles. He pounds his chest and dares Q to give him another one. Q responds by bouncing off of the ropes. Akeli braces himself for impact. Q suddenly stops herself short and hits Akeli in the mouth with a superkick! The impact sends Akeli staggering through the ropes and out onto the floor! He lands on his feet as Q sprints across the ring and launches herself between the top and middle ropes---sending both wrestlers hard to the floor with a plancha!

Taj: Would you look at that…?!

America: Q doesn’t want Akeli to think that she’s scared of him! I respect it! But, you have to wonder if getting Q out onto the floor like that is a good idea?

Q pulls herself back up to her feet. She grabs Akeli and lifts him back up to his feet. She pounds away on Akeli with a few more right hands. Q then grabs Akeli by the head and drags him over to the nearest set of stairs. Q lines Akeli up with them and prepares to drop him onto the stairs with a DDT! Suddenly, Akeli shoves Q away. Q loses her balance and Akeli lifts her into the air. He slams Q’s back hard into the ring post! He does it a second time for good measure before dropping Q down to the floor. Akeli puts a foot on Q’s back and raises a hand in the air to taunt him---the fans booing loudly.

America: See what I mean?

Akeli then lifts Q up to her feet. Q stands groggily as Akeli powers Q into the air and drops her onto the guardrail face first! Q stumbles around, but manages to roll back into the ring. Akeli follows in close pursuit. He charges at Q and nearly takes her head off with a big boot! Akeli then goes for the cover.

One…

Two…kick out!

Akeli drags Q up to her feet. He places two hands around her throat and tries to lift Q into the air for a chokebomb! Q manages to shove Akeli away! Akeli staggers a few steps before trying to charge back at the champ---who responds by leaping into the air and hitting the Samoan War Machine with a dropkick! Akeli staggers back to his corner from the impact and Daniel tags himself into the match. Q runs forward, hitting Akeli with a jumping knee that sends him crashing to the mat! Unfortunately for Q, Daniel responds by springboarding into the ring and hitting her with a spinning wheel kick! He covers.

One…

Two…

THR…KICK OUT!

Taj: Q was beginning to build a bit of momentum, but…

America: Wrong guy!

Daniel lines himself up with Q as she starts to pull herself back up to her feet. Once Q is almost up, Daniel tries to send her back to the mat with The Howling (V-Trigger)! Q steps out of the way at the last possible second! She grabs hold of Daniel from behind and tries to get him into position for a dragon suplex. Daniel spins out of Q’s grasp! He hits Q in the mouth with an elbow smash and then a spinning backfist! Q drops down to a knee as Daniel bounces off of the ropes and tries for a shining wizard! Q ducks underneath the attempt and Daniel crashes to the mat! Q grabs hold of him from behind and tries to snap off an exploder suplex! Daniel escapes Q’s grasp and rolls her up for the cover.

One…

Two…

THRE…KICK OUT!

Taj: Oh, that was close!

America: Might’ve been what Q needed to get out of this one, though!

Sure enough, Q staggers over to her corner of the ring and tags Jacob into the match. The two lock eyes for a moment before Jacob smirks and gives Q a quick wink. Daniel tries to interfere in the moment by charging at the two of them. Jacob ducks out of the way and causes Daniel to crash into the turnbuckle. Daniel tries to regain his balance but can’t before Jacob snaps off a The Phantom Train (running arched big boot to a cornered opponent)! He hooks the leg and covers.

One…

Two…kick out!

Jacob grabs hold of Daniel and drags him back up to his feet. He hits Daniel with a chop to the chest, and then a second, and then a third.

One…

Two…

TH…Akeli breaks up the attempt!

Taj: Well, that isn’t good news for Jacob.

America: Akeli looks MAD!

Sure enough, Akeli grabs hold of Jacob and hits him with a clubbing blow. He knocks Jacob back against the nearest turnbuckle and charges in, crushing him with a big splash! Jacob staggers out of the corner and rolls onto the apron. Akeli lines himself up with Jacob as Daniel pulls himself back up to his feet. Q runs into the ring to help her partner, but Daniel cuts her off with a basement dropkick!

The referee tries to get control of the situation. Daniel and Akeli both look at one another. Akeli runs forward, but gets hit with an elbow smash from Jacob! This, unfortunately, gives Daniel the opening he needs to send Jacob out to the floor! Daniel then dives through the ropes and sends both men crashing hard to the floor with a suicide dive!

Taj: This referee is going to have to figure something out.

America: Does he?!

Akeli regains his sense of where he’s at and glares out at the two men on the floor. He goes to exit the ring, when suddenly, the World Champ charges at him and sends both of them flying over the rope with a big clothesline! They crash hard to the floor, but nonetheless pull themselves back up to their feet. Akeli responds by charging at Q and tackling her through the guard rail!

Crowd: HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT!

The fans are on their feet as the referee glances out at the wreckage. Q and Akeli slowly start to stir before continuing to battle their way through the crowd, much to the delight of the fans in attendance. Samson chases after them.

Taj: Someone’s going to have to get control of them!

While Akeli and Q are brawling in the crowd, Daniel manages to roll Jake back into the ring. The Prodigy quickly moves across the ring and motions for a big finish before trying for God’s Faith (The Landslide)! Jake suddenly moves at the last second causing Daniel to overextend himself just enough for Jake to quickly hit Last Surprise (slingblade)!

America: Please tell me that Jacob isn’t going to get the pin on Daniel?!

Taj: It looks like that might be happening, America.

Jacob covers for the pin.

One…

Two…

THREE!!

Torres: The winner of this match...Jacob Striker and Q!!

America: ]GODDAMNIT! Well at least Q got the win.

Taj: You have to know that Jacob will use this pin over Jacob as verbal fuel.

America: GODDAMNIT!

By this time Q has made it back into the ring. She pays little attention to Jacob resting in a corner as she stands over the downed Daniel screaming at him. Suddenly Striker bolts out of the corner and quickly locks in a choke sleeper, quickly cinching it in, and locking it in very tight, taking the two of them to the mat quickly!

Taj: JACOB IS ATTACKING Q!

America: He’s such a coward! After Q did all the heavy lifting through the entire match he wants to attack her from behind!

The hard camera does a close up on Jake’s face at which point it shows the utter calm on his face as he keeps the submission hold locked on until finally releasing it. He quickly moves away and beckons Herbert Torres for a microphone. Torres tosses Jake a mic who catches it and then looks down at Q’s innate form in the middle of the ring.

Jacob Striker: Tick Tock, Q. You no longer have the time to be the diva. Either step up and prove your worth to this company or watch how quickly things can change around here.

Jacob then tosses the mic down onto Q’s body and turns to leave the ring. Before he can step through the ropes, Akeli slides into the ring behind Jacob, turns him around, and begins drilling down on him with right hands!

Taj: WHERE IN THE WORLD DID AKELI COME FROM?!

America: Out of the crowd where Q left him most likely.

Jacob scrambles and fights to his feet, but Akeli takes him down with a double leg takedown and starts raining lefts and rights! Jacob escapes the onslaught, gets to his feet, and the two start to exchange blows. Akeli gets the advantage and goes to deliver My Divine Right (inverted sitout over-the-shoulder piledriver)!

Before Akeli executes the move, Daniel comes from behind and elbows Akeli in the back causing Akeli to release Jacob. Daniel and Akeli begin exchanging blows! Jacob chop blocks Akeli from behind and all three men begin to exchange blows!

Taj: All hell has broken loose in there!

Referees and 1WM officials run down to the ring to separate the three men as the show fades to the crowd chant of “Let them fight!”
