Time: 14:44
After the match, Silas Jessup is seen to pitch yet another fit, knocking a ring crew member to the ground before disappearing backstage.
The One-Tron springs to life, the Santa Monica crowd lose their minds as they see that Arley Kirk is leaning against a wall backstage, and she does not look like she's a happy camper. Arley's head is bandaged, over which she wears a pink bandana, which does a poor job of taking the attention off of her very obviously swollen, blackened eye. The good eye narrows as the footage closes out, and Arley actually turns to face the camera lens.
Arley Kirk: Some might call Bianca Davis a *censored*
The fans LAUGH but Arley isn't done.
Arley Kirk: I myself am inclined! But no. I peel back the diamante onion. What we have here, is a sheltered, spoiled ass princess who simply cannot bear to not get her own way, any old time she pleases. Sheltered and spoiled, to the point of cackling fakkin madness..
Arley shakes her head slowly, allowing her words to hang in the air just a little.
Arley Kirk: What you and that clown in party city ninja garb have done, is far outta pocket to your out of proportion widdle ego being deservedly crushed! It's way out of line for a rightful response to what was an ACTUAL act of disrespect, Bianca.
A growl builds up in Arley's throat, yet she strains to suppress it, push it back down and keep her cool.
Arley Kirk: What y'all have done is a complete overreaction in every sense of the word. Remember this. It was YOU who decided to try to override my spot on commentary, as if I didn't exist. It was YOU who decided to attack an elder talent to make some stupid point you didn't end up making. Me? I'm simply reacting. I'm defending. From YOU. Yet…if we're gonna go ahead and escalate this ol thang..
Arley pulls back the bandana a bit, the crowd gasping as she reveals that her eye is quite a bit more nasty looking than the previous arrangement of her bandana would have you believe. She tilts her head forward, and surgical staples can be seen. Their metallic surface throws off the focus of the camera for a second before Arley looks back up.
Arley Kirk: Then let's GO! What are ya waiting for? Let's actually DO this, Davis! You wanna try be a crazy bitch? You ain't know nothing about it, honey. I'll put the fear of the gotdang night into you, good and proper. Gonna be sorry you ever asked, woman..
Arley's eyes narrow once more, and a sarcastic scowl crosses her face. The crowd yells their support, yet Arley is in no mood.
Arley Kirk: You and your little lap dogs. One. By. One. I'ma start with your lil party city ninja. Give her to me. Now. I'll show that sneaky little bitch how much of a poor life choice it is to align herself with the likes of YOU. I'll show her hands on..
Arley pauses. She sighs. She knows that Bianca won't go for this.
Arley Kirk: C'mon. Show some class. Your stupid rich ass got herself suspended, so I can't kick ten shades of brown outta you. So like, gimme the dweeb!
The crowd laughs as Arley picks her words not so carefully, yet doesn't care.
Arley Kirk: Yo. Bringat. What's the matter, Davis? Afraid that I'll rip her little robot head off and kick it around the arena when I can actually see what's in front of me? C'mon. What. Are y'all chicken shit? GIVE. ME. THE. NINJA, DAVIS.
Arley isn't asking. Her eyes blaze as the One-Tron fades out.
:::MATCH THREE:::
Mt. Marcellus
versus
Ace Skye
Mt. Marcellus
versus
Ace Skye
After Ace Sky dominates the early goings of this bout with speed and aerial supremacy, Mt. Marcellus digs deep, locks in and brings the pain with his power moves. After catching Ace and drilling him with C'MERE BITCH, Mt. Marcellus picks up the victory.
Winner: Mt. Marcellus via pinfall
Time: 11:35
:::MAIN EVENT:::
TAG TEAM MATCH
"The Dragon" Travis Levitt & Prince Ryder
versus
Rowena Byrne & Kelli Saint
TAG TEAM MATCH
"The Dragon" Travis Levitt & Prince Ryder
versus
Rowena Byrne & Kelli Saint
The intense rivalry between Levitt and Byrne is felt all through the main event, with it surely rubbing off on Ryder and Saint. This main event spills out into the entranceway and is almost ruled a no contest. Ryder tags in Travis and Kelli gets the tag to Rowena. In the final stages, Rowena sneakily bridges through and uses the ropes for leverage to score a dirty pin on Travis and win the match for herself and Kelli!
Winners: Rowena Byrne & Kelli Saint via pinfall.
Time: 13:55
As the satisfied fans filed out of the Barker Hangar, 1WM crew members met them, passing out free tickets to the upcoming Glory 29 broadcast on the 15th.

1WM GLORY XXIX
RECORDED LIVE FROM THE BARKER HANGAR IN SANTA MONICA, CALIFORNIA
“Back in Black” hits the speakers as “Pretty” Ricky Stanton walks down the ramp in a dark gray suit and black shoes. The crowd is already booing as he walks down to the ring…
K. McBryde: We are starting off this show WITH THA BOSS!
G: I can tell you this - I’m actually in agreement with Mr. Stanton right now but I’m sure that’ll change by the end of the night but he’s doing the work of the show and it’s talent calling out something that happened when we were last with you take a look:
CUT TO: GLORY 28 - [/i]A hush falls over the crowd as they don’t know what’s going on and Crane, instead of heading for the entrance, he goes to the side to an open area of the hangar where a spot has been blocked off with some orange cones and yellow warning tape. It is here where Crane drops Oliver’s body to the floor without a concern for his well being. He then grabs the protective tape and rips it before entering the protected area and removing a bunch of large folded card boxes to reveal a hole in the ground!
Crane then picks up Oliver by his under arms, and then holds him close to his chest and whispers something in his ear before unceremoniously throwing him inside the hole![/i]
G: THIS RIGHT HERE, was not part of the match between Douglas Crane and Oliver Black but we must remember Stanton sanctioned the match as a Hardcore Match/ Grudge Match. I think for Stanton he didn’t want Oliver permanently injured.
The camera cuts to Stanton ringside as he listens to the boos
PRS: At the last Glory Douglas Crane decided that he wasn’t gonna be done with match and decided to go into business for himself by trying to bury Oliver Black. It was stopped, and Crane was escorted out the arena. Now apparently, that is, if you follow Social Media, I’ve awaken a Sleeping Giant. So Crane, come on out here and bring whoever you feel you need to bring but at the same time (SE Guards enter the ring) I also have my guys here, so yeah, there’s that.
…Get your ass down here…NOW
Stanton waits, but not for long as "Hurt" by Johnny Cash begins to play, causing the crowd to turn towards the entrance to see if Crane will actually show. They don’t have to wait long, as after about 5 seconds of the music hitting, Douglas Crane comes out the back dressed in a very proper silver suit. After looking at the crowd for a few seconds, he heads down the ramp, at a steady pace, emotionless, his piercing blue eyes focused on PRS. He slides under the bottom rope and crawls on his fingerless-gloved fists while on his knees, slithering right up to PRS who promptly backpedals and steps out the ropes. Crane slithers backwards towards the middle of the ring and then gets to his feet, adjusting his suit and tie and then asks for a microphone. His music dies down and the crowd is completely quiet, which Crane seems to find peace in.
Douglas Crane: Well, what are you doing outside the ring, old sport? You wanted to talk to Mr. Personality, well, here we are…
PRS: (laughs) Mr. Personality is HARDLY what The Pretty Boy would call ya. (Walks around) You see, I like ya style…but only when it’s gonna draw me MONEY. Cause winning and losing is only 1 percent of this thing we call professional wrestling and well, I need you to do the 99 percent the right way and not YOUR WAY. (Crowd boos) The reason why I had you escorted out the building at the last Glory is because well, you were out of control. You went into business FOR YOURSELF and that, that is NOT WHAT you’re ever going to do on MY SHOW.
Crane goes to speak but is cut off by Stanton.
PRS: THE BOSS IS TALKING SO NO SQUAWKING. (Crowd boos loud) IF you are going to be here…on Glory, then do your job, and your job ONLY. (Gets in Crane’s face) OR I will do your job…FOR YOU.
Stanton hands him the mic. Crane takes the mic, nearly snatching it, and gets in Ricky’s face, eyes full of rage, but Ricky holds his ground unfazed.
Douglas Crane: OH YEAH?! WELL YOU ARE HARDLY A PRETTY MOTHER-F…
Crane takes a step back, covering his mouth and closing his eyes as the crowd lets out a loud “OOOOOOOOOOOH!” When he opens them, the rage is still there, but seems dialed back a bit, almost as if… controlled. When he removes his hand, he takes a deep breath, brings the microphone up and his voice is different, not proper like before, but that of the ‘rassler’ in him.
Douglas Crane: Look Stanton, you are just trying to do your job, and I get it… But I am just trying to do mine… Last week was pretty much a ‘anything goes’ type of situation… What happened then, well, that was a one time thing, and a perfect example of what happens when someone pushes us over the edge… As long as you do your job (pokes at Ricky’s chest, he looks down and raises an eyebrow before looking back up to Crane) and keep your roster in check, you will never see that happen again… After all, we… I am only here to wrestle… Wins and losses may not matter to you, all you may care about is money, but I didn’t come here for the money… I came here to win championships… and speaking of, if you are the person to thank for putting me in that tournament for the Pride of 1WM championship… then thank you… Ricky… I look forward to winning the whole damn thing.
PRS: I can assure you that I’m NOT the person to be credited for what goes on during the B Show but I can promise you this…walk the line Crane, I’m watching.
Stanton drops the mic as his music hits and walks out the ring with his Goons.
Debut Match
“The Sky Assassin” Sean Parker vs. Red Rocket Kid
“The Sky Assassin” Sean Parker vs. Red Rocket Kid
The lights in the arena dim slightly, several spotlights flashing across the crowd, the ring and then they focus on the stage. The sudden change in the brightness sets the fans in attendance on tenterhooks as they know someone is about to appear. On the One-tron, a countdown begins to flash up, counting back from 10 and in-between each number, it shows a young, blonde-haired wrestler doing some insane moves. One clip shows him doing a shooting star press after hanging onto the underside of a steel cage being raised up to the rafters a good 45-feet in the air. Another shows him hitting a jumping twisting tombstone piledriver and being handed the Zion Wrestling Endurance Championship. The next short clip shows him executing a Sky Twister Press from inside the ring to the outside onto UPRISING World Champion, Kevin Mears at the XWF’s Relentless pay-per-view. The final clip shows him nailing former two-time XWF Television Champion, Dionysus with a 1080 Corkscrew Senton Bomb to advance in The Porter Games and his hand being raised. The countdown finally reaches zero and a moment later, the opening of “My Songs Know What You Did In the Dark” by Fall Out Boy begins to play. After about 45 seconds playing, the chorus kicks in and the “King of the Skies”, “The Sky Assassin”, the newest member of the One Wrestling Movement roster appears on the stage to a massive roar from the crowd.
G: WHAT A START TO GLORY! K MCBRYDE HERE WITH GENO MARTINEZ AND WHAT A SHOW WE’VE HAD ALREADY!
K: I’m hyped Geno! We’ve got a lot goin on tonight on the “A” Show of One Wrestle and it’s just getting better with the arrival of Sean Parker!
As Sean makes his way down the ramp towards the ring, he takes the time to slap a few hands from the outstretched arms of the fans on either side of the rampway, leaning over the barricade. When he finally reaches ringside, he effortlessly slides up onto the apron, gripping the top rope and turning around to look back into the crowd, a big smile still spread across his young, boyish features. He then climbs up onto the turnbuckle and makes an encouraging motion with his hands, as if motioning for the crowd to make more noise before he hops over the ropes and into the ring. After a few more seconds of indulging in the crowd’s cheers, his music fades out. Sean leans through the ropes and motions for a microphone and is duly handed one by Herbert Torres.
He twirls the mic in his hands for a moment as he again looks around the sold-out crowd in the Barker Hangar. He finally holds up to his mouth and begins to talk as he addresses the audience, taking a moment to glance into the various cameras both in and out of the ring.
Sean: What’s going on, Santa Monica!
The crowd cheers, not caring for the cheap pop and, clearly, going by his facial expression, neither does Sean.
Sean: I know I’m not actually American…not sure if that was clear from the accent or not… but I’m actually from around here…the first ten years of my career were spent wrestling exclusively here in Santa Monica..this is where I was trained, paid my dues, put in the hard graft and all that jazz to get to where I am. So this almost feels like I’m coming home. Santa Monica has always held a special place in my heart so without sounding too cheesy, this kinda feels like a bit of a homecoming for me. So thank you to all of you for making me feel at home.
The crowd cheers and a “Welcome home!” chant and Sean nods appreciatively before bringing the mic back to his mouth.
Sean: Now that all the cheesy crap is out of the way, let’s get down to brass tacks, shall we, Santa Monica? See, I know all of you…
Sean points with his free hand, moving in a circle, at all the fans around the arena.
Sean: …know who I am but I know a lot of the guys and girls in the back might not necessarily know who I am, save one or two… so allow me to introduce myself for those of you in the back unfamiliar. My name is Sean Parker! I’ve spent the last few months in different companies with one goal in mind…to be the absolute best, to put on the best matches possible for the fans who pay their hard-earned money to come and watch, to build myself a legacy…to win championship gold… I’ve been in Zion Wrestling, in XWF, in Pro Wrestling Valor, hell I even enlisted in the TRIAD Strength Trials…and then I heard there was an opening in one of the most competitive companies around…One Wrestling Movement. And that name caught my attention. Movement. So many companies out there are far too similar, Santa Monica, preaching the same message. But my meeting with 1WM management was different. They sold me on this being more than a company, it’s a crusade, hellbent on showcasing a different brand of professional wrestling and that is something that I can get behind. And I’ve seen a lot of what this roster has to offer and so far I’ve been extremely impressed...and I know there is a lot of stuff going on that I’m not fully up to speed on…people are being suspended, some bellend has decided to make himself a champion for some reason, people are complaining about being overlooked…
Boos echo around the Barker Hangar which Sean acknowledges.
Sean: But I didn’t come here to get involved in backstage politics or insert myself in anyone’s business… I came here to forge my own path, create my own legacy and have the best matches with the best this company has to offer. I know there’s a tournament ongoing at the moment for the Pride of 1WM and Aleki and Travis are battling over the Tidebreaker Championship… I don’t know what Q is doing but what I will say is…if you’re holding a championship belt in 1WM, no matter who you are, you best believe I’m going to be watching you very closely because I’m done waiting around for opportunities to be handed to me elsewhere. I’m not here to knock on doors to ask for permission, I’m here to kick the doors down… see this company has a lot of big faces, all vying for the top spot, all wanting to be the face of 1WM…hardened, talented, loyal warriors who’ve paved the way for others. Aleki Kekoa…the World Champion Q, Travis Levitt…Arley Kirk… Prince Ryder……Silas Jessup… even the self-appointed Glory Champion, Ricky Stanson…
The crowd boos at the mention of Ricky’s name.
Sean: But with the greatest respect… I don’t care if you’re a God of War…a Dragon, a Dark Phoenix or Napalm… when the Sky Assassin takes flight, the game changes completely! And it starts tonight with Red Rocket Kid… it might not seem much on paper but you only get one chance to make a first impression and I promise you I will show everyone here what I’m all about! I’m back, Santa Monica!
Sean hands the microphone back to the Herbert Torres as he waits for the bell to ring.
G: Well that’s one way to get on the Boss’s side.
K: Stanton probably has this guy on his radar already…
DING DING DING!!!
The Barker Hangar crowd are hype as Rocket beats on his chest as he and Sean circle. The crowd laughs as Sean does the same, as a tribute less than it is in any mocking way, but Rocket growls and charges forward with a shoulder check. Sean falls back against the ropes, and Rocket goes for the cactus clothesline but Parker grabs hold of the top rope and yanks it down, causing Rocket to stumble and spill out to the floor.
K: Oh! There goes the big man..
The fans get behind the new recruit as Parker gives them the signal, takes a run up, bounces to the top..
G: Diving WYVERN, springboard edition!
Rocket is just starting to get up and he eats all of it, falling back against the barricade. Parker lays in a quick flurry of forearms, rolling RRK back inside before the five count. Parker tries to drag Rocket back up, but he is met with some huge rib punches and a knee shot which doubles him over. Rocket delivers another knee and Parker staggers back. Rocket takes the arm and shoots him off for an irish whip…and then he starts running in the opposite direction.
G: Rocket with the uhh..criss cross..
The two men bypass each other once, both of them missing wildly as they try for a clothesline and discus lariat, respectively. Sean bounces for a second run then stops as he realizes what he's doing. He simply shakes his head, turns around and he catches RRK with a perfectly timed headscissors DDT!
K: Her's the cover!
One…
Two…
TH…Rocket just gets the shoulder up!
The crowd are loudly voicing their appreciation for the contest as Sean sits up. He drags Rocket back up, but he is having trouble standing and he falls back onto one knee. With a grunt of exertion that excites the crowd, Sean drags RRK up and staggers him with a European uppercut before sending him off for an irish whip.
G: HERE'S THE MASAMUNE DECAPITATION…wait a MINUTE!
Rocket dodges, and Sean staggers forward as he misses with the knee. Rocket grabs him by the hair and swings him back around..
K: ROCKETEER..NO!
Sean breaks free of the stump puller driver, swings around..
K: The BLOODY T..
The fans are on their feet as RRK dodges the 720 and Sean lands hard, Rocket capitalising and dragging him up again..
G: Big headbutt! Rocket looking for the CRASH LANDING..
Again the fans are out of their seat as Sean manages to flip out of it and drop Rocket with a timely German suplex before springing to the top rope and wasting no time..
K: Highway to HYRULE!
The fans cheer as Parker lands and the count along with the ref
One…
Two…
THREE!!
Torres: The winner of this match….Sean Parker!!
G: The Sky Assasin victorious tonight! What a match!
The 1WM cameras head backstage where the Samoan God of War Aleki Kekoa is shown walking through the backstage area where the show production crew is hard at work. The Tidebreaker Champion receives a massive pop from a favorable near-hometown crowd. Aleki stops one of the production crew members.
Aleki: Excuse me… where is the medical team housed tonight?
The female crew member blushes as Aleki smiles politely.
Female Crew Member: Ummm… down the hall… second door on your left.
Aleki chuckles at the female’s reaction.
Aleki: Thanks. Much appreciated.
The tall Samoan heads towards the hallway and finds the appropriate door. A sign next to the door reads: MEDICAL TRIAGE UNIT - Dr. Alyssa Knight, D.O. The crowd pops in anticipation as Aleki knocks on the door and opens it.
Aleki: Alyssa?
Inside the large room set up for preliminary medical care, Dr. Alyssa Knight is talking to her physician assistant while looking over a medical chart. As soon as Alyssa hears the familiar voice she immediately looks up and smiles brightly.
Alyssa: Aleki, hi it’s so good to see you. Is everything okay?
The tall doctor steps over to the examination table where Aleki is standing.
Alyssa: Please take a seat. How can I help you?
There is a twinkle in Alyssa’s eyes as she approaches Aleki. The Tidebreaker Champion smirks as he gives the statuesque medical practitioner an once over.
Aleki: I’m required by the 1WM Legal Department for the next 90 days to get my surgically repaired shoulder and knee medically cleared before every show. And since Richard runs Glory now, he’s enforcing it and I need to be cleared to defend my Tidebreaker Championship tonight. So here I am, Doc.
Alyssa steps closer to Aleki but stumbles on some mechanical cords and lands in the champion’s arms. She stares up into his eyes, mesmerized by the muscular Samoan. Alyssa smiles brightly, a red tint now on her cheeks.
Alyssa: Shit! I’m sorry, Aleki. You were always good at catching me whenever I fell. Remember when I fell off the cheerleading pyramid at SC and you caught at the last second pads and all?
Aleki thinks back to his college football days when he and Alyssa were the hottest couple on campus. He smiles proudly and looks back at Alyssa fondly.
Aleki: And I’ll always be around to catch you, Ally.
He holds her tightly for a few more charged moments before Alyssa speaks into the silence.
Alyssa: Let me get that clearance for you.
Alyssa winks at Aleki as she slowly stands up, still standing close and begins to examine his shoulder while asking him a few medical questions about his surgeries. She then steps between his knees. There is an audible gasp from the crowd. The doctor grins and slowly drops to her knees. The crowd goes apeshit as the suggestive image is shown on the Onetron. She then turns her head with a coy smirk.
Alyssa: Your surgeon did an amazing job with the incision. You can barely tell it’s there.
The doctor examines Aleki’s knee then slowly stands up. The crowd is eating this shit up.
Alyssa: Based on my examination, Aleki, you’re good to go for tonight. I’ll make sure your paperwork is in order and given to the appropriate people.
Aleki smirks at Alyssa.
Aleki: You’ve always been good at taking care of me, Doc. Thanks.
Alyssa: And I always will.
Alyssa pops an suggestive eyebrow as Aleki hops off the examination table.
Alyssa: Kick some ass out there tonight.
Aleki: I always do.
The wrestler and the doctor share another electric moment before the Tidebreaker Champion exits with a smile and Alyssa’s assistant returns with a couple more files.
@gladialeague
Season Two Continues
We now see Dr. Alyssa Knight, D.O, walking down the hallway backstage when she sees “Pretty” Ricky Stanton talking to his staffer. The crowd immediately boos as she goes up and taps him on the shoulder.
PRS: Well Well, if it isn’t the lovely Doctor, how are things? And let me first apologize for not being more available for you at SE. I know most of the time when you’re coming in I’m always leaving or in a meeting but I haven’t forgot about you.
AK: That’s quite alright Ricky. I do need to go over a few things about this contract that we have. In very very fine print there’s a clause in it and it states that I’m not to have anything to do with Aleki inside or outside the ring? I thought what I did outside this place was no one’s business?
PRS: Welllllll that was more me than it was SE my dear. You see, I just do not think that while AK is your buddy, it's not what's best for business. In fact, he's my enemy, so do I really want him lingering around? Nope. (Crowd boos) So tell you what, if he means that much to you, then you go your way and find another place that gives you an account like mine to practice with the best equipment money can buy and with the manpower. Or...ORRRRR....You can just cut him loose. You'll see him at 1WM but mostly in waving or doing your job as a good doctor. (Looks at your hand) Whatcha got there???
Alyssa holds up some M&Ms...all red....Ricky looks at them with rage.
PRS: Doctor.....(Crowd goes wild)....where...where did you get those from?
AK: Oh I saw them in catering....figured I'd grab a snack (pops a few and Ricky cringes)
PRS: I HATE RED M & Ms....give me the bag now. (Alyssa looks confused as Ricky takes the bag from her hand and then holds out his other hand at her face.) SPIT THEM OUT.
Alyssa is still chewing very confused on if he's for real.
PRS: SPIT! NOW!
Alyssa spits out a wad of chocolate in Ricky's hand as he pours the ooze into the bag..
PRS: (looks her up and down) Welcome to SE Doc, time to get back to work. (Walks away) I HATE RED M & Ms!
Debut Match
Madori vs. The Ninja
Madori vs. The Ninja
As Madori stands in the ring *clearly* under the influence, ready for her match up, against the Ninja who injured Arley Kirk, all of a sudden the Kill Bill Siren can be heard over the public address system is trouble is about to make its way to Santa Monica, before the beat of Hella Good by No Doubt can be heard over the public address system as the fans boo loudly at the music of perhaps the most hated woman in the entire company right now, Bianca Davis who has undergone a metamorphosis of sort as of late.
K: Here comes trouble; Bianca Davis has been suspended, but because of a legal loophole, she found she can not only be at ringside for the Ninja’s debut match but is now her acting manager and has no contact clause?!
G: She is proving she can do whatever she wants, and with the legal team she rumored to have, I don’t think Tap, or really anyone, can stand up to her besides the Glory general manager, but given she's his tag team partner.
Within a few moments, the smug, spoiled socialite arrives dressed like she was back in the pageant scene with an expensive-looking sequin blue gown, a sash that says the centerpiece of 1WM, black expensive high heel pumps, and her trusty cane in her right hand, and a silver tiara on her head.
G: Wow, look at her that is one fashionable woman! Looking amazing as always!
K: Don’t let her good looks and charming smile fool you. That is one mean, nasty woman; Legendary should have proven that. Look at that damn wave!
Bianca was greeting her “adoring” public with her wave as she motioned out and walking out was the Ninja, who looked ready for combat; the fans booed loudly, knowing what she did to Arley Kirk last month. Bianca soon demands a microphone and is given one as she motions for her music to cut, and she soon graces the fans with her lovely voice.
Bianca Davis: Thank you, thank you for that warm response; now I have something important to say, and I want you all to hear it, so hush your mouths…
The fans, however, just keep booing, which causes a disgusted look to appear on the face of Bianca as the Ninja maintains their stoic stance. Not much can be told from her eyes being the only thing that is visible. There's definitely a cold meanness in those eyes, however. As she then screeches loudly over the microphone.
Bianca Davis: SHUT UP YOU MORONS I HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY TO ALL OF YOU UNDESIRABLES.
K: That is one way to make friends
G: Bianca is a true influencer in this world.
Bianca scoffs as the boos grow for a moment before finally quieting down as she speaks.
Bianca Davis: Rude I shouldn’t even bother bringing you all the gift of The Ninja, but I shall give you what you all want, which is violence. See, as much as you sick freaks may have hated it, you know you loved watching Arley get laid out why? Because deep down, you’re all low lives and sick difference between me and you; however, the Ninja is we can take what we want when we want, and however we want. You hate me because I can do what all of you wish you could; you want to live through the pinnacle, but tonight, what you get instead is the destruction of Madori.
Madori: Hai. F*CENSORED*KU, NINJA!
Madori has a playful look on her face as she staggers toward the Ninja, who appears to narrow her eyes, albeit approaches calmly.
DING DING DING!!!
The crowd hype up as Madori tries for a huge haphazard looking slap to the Ninja, but the Ninja easily blocks. In a flash, a brutal arm wrench back hook kick topples Dori, causing her to collapse back into the corner and slide down. The Ninja wastes no time following up with a running face wash, jacking Madori's head back violently. Bianca yells at The Ninja to pin Madori and she does so.
Bianca Davis: Aw poor thing you like that peons?
Bianca yells out to the crowd, only getting boos for her trouble.
One…
Two…Madori kicks out.
G: And Bianca is…well, she’s enjoying this…
K: Ricky gave her the green light to make this happen. The Tragic Kingdom is an interesting place…they got Ninjas dude…
Ninja shakes her head, paintbrushing green fairy with smacks upside the head, making her mad enough to get back to her feet and try for a European uppercut! Ninja blocks, but Madori gets a big pop as she immediately lands a headbutt to the nose, and the follow up European uppercut connects loudly. The fans urge Madori on as she gets the upper hand for a bit and throws a flurry of punches and forearms at Ninja. While Ninja easily deflects the sloppiest blows, one decent shot connects. Madori shoots Ninja off with an irish whip and the fans hype up as she lets out a roar and throws a crushing elbow but the Ninja quickly executes the splits to avoid it. A sudden superkick to the shin is quickly followed with a European uppercut and Madori collapses into the referee who also falls down.
Bianca Davis: That’s right, how does that feel, should have gone to a meeting instead huh?!
The Ninja appears frustrated as she notices there's nobody to count the fall, but then she looks down and prods the head of Madori with her foot, and Madori doesn't respond at all. Ninja heads over to the corner where the crowd starts to BOO as she removes not just the top turnbuckle pad, but also the bottom. Ninja checks back on the referee and Madori by prodding them both with her foot. Ninja hits the ropes and drops the leg on Madori but Madori moves! As a shot of pain rises through Ninja, Madori uses the chance to drag her up. Irish whip and Madori is looking for an overhead belly to belly suplex but Ninja flips out and lands on her feet. The crowd BOO as Madori is hard Irish whipped into the bare turnbuckle. Dori bounces off and staggers into Ninja's tilt a whirl Manhattan drop and neckbreaker combination. Ninja hooks the leg.
One…
Two…
THR...Madori gets the shoulder up!
G: Shoulder up! Madori is still in this one!
K: But why?
The fans are cheering loudly for the green fairy's endurance, and Bianca Davis is ropable mad on the outside, but the Ninja seems calm and collected. Madori gets up on all fours and the crowd BOO as Ninja aims a hard kick to the sternum, forcing her to roll. Madori clutches her chest as Ninja kicks her in the spine, and in the head before dragging her over to the corner. The BOOOs come in thick as Ninja rolls a semi conscious Madori on her stomach and wraps her legs to trap her.
G: No. Not the stomp. Not this..
Grabbing onto her arms, The Ninja bridges Madori back and the crowd is screaming at her not to do it, but the Ninja steps down hard and Dori's head hits the exposed bottom buckle.
Bianca: OH not pretty no more! Pin her! Get her!
Ninja drags her away from the ropes and simply places a foot upon the chest of the seemingly lifeless and bleeding Madori.
One…
Two…
THREE!!
Torres: The winner of this match…The Ninja!!
G: What a devastating move by this cold as ice newcomer.
Crowd: BOOOOOOOOO!
They are furious because Ninja has dragged Madori to her feet, and Bianca Davis has got up on the apron and is goading her client on. Ninja lays into Madori with her fast, accurate and deadly array of strikes. Madori is unconscious on her feet, only being held up by the support of the ring ropes as the crowd scream their disapproval.
Bianca Davis: KEEP IT GOING, DON'T YOU STOP NOW. Hurt her! Make it c..
The Barker Hangar EXPLODES as Arley Kirk is so quickly down the aisle and over the barricade that they barely see her until..
K: KIRK!! IT'S KIRK!!
Fans: OHHHH!
They erupt as the Ninja rolls out of the way as Arley springs into the ring buckshot style and almost connects with a rolling wheel kick on Bianca!
G: BUCKSHOT rolling wheel kick that almost lands on Davis!
Ninja tries to sneak from behind with her dazzling 1080° spin kick, but Arley's instincts are on point. She turns, matrix evades it and kips up before seizing the Ninja in a double underhook and dumping her with the swinging double underhook facebuster!
K: RIPLASH!
Bianca only just got to her feet to see that and she quietly drags the now unconscious Ninja's legs and out to the floor. A mic is thrown to AK and she catches it with determination painted all over her face. AK is panting with exertion as she raises the mic to speak.
Arley Kirk: AT EVERY TURN..
The fans erupt once more
Arley Kirk: I'm gonna be there. I'ma stand in your way, Davis. I'ma thwart your PLANS..
Arley looks around as she soaks in the reception she is getting from the Santa Monica fans.
Arley Kirk: I'ma DEFEAT you!
The Barker Hangar goes crazy for AK once more as Bianca points and yells back something that we can't hear.
Arley Kirk: Oh, and hey. Hey you. I'm talking to YOU, Smurfette!
Arley grins as B yells back at Arley and the Ninja looks up. The face is hidden behind a mask, but those eyes say it all as she nods. This is war.
Arley Kirk: I'll be seeing your spy vs spy lookin ass at Legendary 44! Happy Halloween. Bitch..
G: OH MY GOODNESS
Arley throws her head back and encourages the laughter from the fans to get louder. B quickly drags Ninja backstage, seemingly before they do something they will regret.
K: THAT is huge! Arley Kirk and Bianca Davis' dangerous new client will go head to head at Legendary, THIS MONTH, folks!
G: I have a really bad feeling about this.
Recorded LIVE from the Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, California
October 15th, 2023
The scene switches backstage where see the familiar face of William Ryder stepping out of a locker room. The Prince gives a casual look left and right, and then starts to head down the hallway. There's some anger in his eyes as he walks, and the way his fists clench its clear he has something in mind. He turns a nearby corner, getting a few more steps away before a voice freezes him in his tracks.
Travis Levitt: “Going somewhere Will?”
Ryder slowly turns his head at that voice, and the camera turns with him to show 'The Dragon' Travis Levitt sitting casually atop a production crate nearby. Travis has a bag of cheetos in one hand and is casually and comfortably snacking away as he watches Ryder for a moment before shifting forward and standing up. Stepping towards the self-proclaimed Prince, Travis stares at him for a long moment and then tilts the bag towards him. Ryder looks down at the crinkling bag and then back up at Travis.
Prince Ryder: “Do you have any idea how long it took me to get cheeto dust out of my car last week?”
Travis Levitt: “It gets everywhere, doesn't it? Annoying. If only they weren't so delicious.”
Travis sighs and takes another handful before his gaze meets Ryder again. The two men sharing a look before Travis sighs, rolls the bag closed, and puts it away. His gaze then shifts back to Ryder and his grin grows again.
Travis Levitt: “So. Cheetos aside. Where were you headed looking so angry and determined?”
Prince Ryder: “I was going to the ring. I was given an invitation this week. Thought I'd take it up.”
Travis Levitt: “Right. Stanton.”
The two men stare at each other for another moment before Travis sighs and shakes his head.
Travis Levitt: “You're smarter then this. You head out there now, and he wins. They may as well set your match as a forfeit on Legendary, because the moment you go through that curtain, Stanton's proved he's in your head. That's how a man like Stanton plays the game, and when you try to play this his way, he'll beat you. Every time. Whats the old adage? An idiot drags you to their level and thumps you with experience.”
Travis pauses now, just watching William for a moment as if to let his words sink in before continuing.
Travis Levitt: “Let me ask you. Between those ropes, whose more Athletic? You or Stanton?”
Prince Ryder: “Me.”
Travis Levitt: “Are you faster then Stanton?”
Prince Ryder: “Please. I can lap him.”
Travis Levitt: “Right. And between those ropes, whose the better natural wrestler? You or Stanton?”
Prince Ryder: “Me. I've been doing this my whole life. I take pride in how good a wrestler I am. I chase the toughest fights, and the biggest moments. All Stanton does is play dirty, and cheat to win. He could barely wrestle out of a paper bag.”
Ryder can be seen getting more fired up with each moment, Travis letting him go for a second before nodding and giving a half shrug.
Travis Levitt. “Okay. So, bonus question. Why are you going out to the ring?”
Prince Ryder: “Because I'm going to kick the sh----”
There's a moments pause as if something seems to click and Travis smiles. The Dragon watching the stunned Ryder as he looks away and then glances back at Levitt who nods, slapping Ryder in the chest with a playful smack.
Travis Levitt: “There it is. Stanton wants you angry. He wants you off your game. Because if all you're thinking of is destroying him, he wins. You're better then that. Stop trying to trash talk him. Stop letting him in your head. Focus on what YOU are good at Prince. Between those ropes, he can't touch you. So study the tapes. Keep yourself relaxed and ready. And in two weeks at Legendary, when that bell rings, be ready. You've got this, Will. You just need to spend some time out of your own head. Alright?”
Ryder firmly nods and the two men smirk before slapping hands, Ryder tugging Travis in for a shoulder bump before the two men laugh and turn to head back the way Ryder was coming from. As they walk, Ryder looks over at Travis with a glance.
Prince Ryder: “Hey. You got a title shot tonight, and you were waiting out here for me? Aren't you worried about your own preparation?”
Travis Levitt: “Oh. Stanton tossed me at Aleki like a piece of raw meat to a hyena. I'm expecting to be absolutely destroyed tonight. But I have a secret strategy.”
Travis reaches into his pocket, pulling out the bag of cheetos and taking another handful. Ryder stares at him confused until Travis grins.
Travis Levitt: “I'm hoping he hits me so hard I cough cheeto dust in his face. That'll teach him.”
Ryder stares at Travis for a moment longer and then bursts out laughing and the two men head off as we cut to ringside..
In-Ring Debut Match
Amanda Belnades vs. Rowena Bryne
Amanda Belnades vs. Rowena Bryne
DING DING DING!!!
Belnades and Byrne both lunge forward. Byrne motions for the collar and elbow tie up, Belnades obliges. Byrne shoves Belnades back before delivering a harsh looking forearm, jacking Amanda's head back.
Crowd: OHH!
Byrne fires off some more before dropping Belnades with a precision enziguri kick. Rowena dives down to the mat, seizes Belnades by the hair, and her other hand is a blur as she lays into Amanda Belnades with punches. The referee gets to a four count and the fans BOO Rowena Byrne as she angrily lets go and shoves Belnades away at the four count. The crowd BOO some more as Byrne gets up in the face of the referee and starts yell at him. Amanda Belnades sneaks up from behind and rolls Rowena Byrne up, trying for a sneaky pin. The crowd actually gets behind it as Rowena rolls through and smoothly launches Belnades into the top turnbuckle with a catapult!
G: Good instincts by Rowena Byrne!
Rowena follows up with a corner clothesline and Belnades drops to the mat. The crowd begins to BOO once more as Byrne sets to work on trying to remove the turnbuckle pad, yet the referee stops her and warns her. Byrne shakes her head and turns back around and Belnades is right there to connect with a big European uppercut and a ripcord northern lights suplex!
K:. Belnades going for the cover here!
One…
Two…Byrne kicks out!
Rowena is first to her feet, and Amanda tries for a leg sweep kick but Byrne jumps up to avoid it. Big knee to the face by Rowena Byrne, and Amanda Belnades staggers back.
K: This Byrne. This is only one of the reasons why she is infamous..OHH! What a shot!
Crowd: OHHHH..
Rowena manages to catch Amanda in the middle of the ring with TOTAL INSANITY, landing kick after kick. Belnades is about to topple over and fall. Rowena gets a wicked smile on her face and lunges..
G: Could this be Byrne following up with STRIKING DARKNESS?
Byrne comes at Belnades with the running Muay Thai knee only for Amanda to reveal that she was playing possum. She hits a drop toe hold on Rowena at the last moment with Rowena getting caught in the throat by the bottom ropes!
K: That's not good for tv! That's torturous!
Amanda calmly places a boot on the back of Rowena's head to idly use the bottom rope to choke her opponent with as she looks the commentary dead in the eyes and does a "polite" little wave as she referee starts to count. It's Rowena who is able to break free though, and she sweeps the seemingly distracted Belnades onto her back before leaping over and rolling her up!
G: La Magistral cradle!
One…
Two…
THR…Amanda gets her arm free and raises the shoulder!
Rowena is furious. She growls as she yells at the referee again and he warns her one more time. This causes Rowena to boot Amanda in the side of the head before stepping out of the ring.
K: Hey, put that back Byrne!
The referee gets to the four count as Rowena returns to the ring with the timekeeper's hammer. The referee tries to grab the hammer but Rowena shrugs him off. Belnades is getting up on all fours as Rowena lets out a screech before knocking Belnades out cold with the hammer.
The referee angrily calls for the bell to call this match over
DING DING DING!!!
Herbert Torres: The winner of this bout by disqualification - AMANDA BEL-NAAADDDES!
Rowena turns around and tries to take the referee down with the hammer. The referee spins to avoid the hit and falls through the middle rope to the outside of the ring..
DING DING DING DING DING!
K: Somebody stop this maniac! What even IS Glory twenty nine?!
Rowena shrieks something inaudible as she throws the hammer at Amanda's head as she's getting up, and she only narrowly misses.
G: Wow that could have been manslaughter, Byrne! Use your head!
Byrne is laughing evilly, as the crowd roars with disapproval.
K: She doesn't care, man. Byrne wanted to use Amanda's head! Well, she wants to hit it with a hammer, at any rate!
Byrne quickly drags a limp Belnades to her feet and lets out a shriek as she drops her with her patented finishing move.
G: VISIONS OF SANITY!
Rowena seems pleased with herself as Belnades hits the ring so hard you can hear something crunch.
G: That move is just generational brutality, that's what it is. Sickening display!
K: Rowena Byrne just took us back to certain days here, ladies and gentlemen. I'm getting a shiver down my spine right now
The scene fades out on the Barker Hangar BOOOing Rowena Byrne loudly as she taunts the crowd with her foot on the chest of the referee she knocked out.
G: Just…insanity…
K: We'll be back!
Recorded LIVE from the Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, California
November 15th, 2023
The scene opens with a black limo pulling up to the back of the arena to a door where Brianna Matthews is waiting. The limo stops and the driver runs around and opens the door to reveal it’s Justice Cross. She holds the Glory Championship over her shoulder as the crowd erupts as they watch it on the screen.
K: THERE SHE IS! HER TIME HAS COME! Justice Cross will finally walk the walk of shame to the ring!
GM: Look, you can say what you want, but she’s been a fighting champion, an honorable champion, and one that will go down as one of Glory’s greatest champions. She has taken on everyone and survive AND THAT includes our GM Ricky “The House” Stanton but as Stanton has said as of late “The House” always wins. This began on Legendary but it will end on Glory and here’s what happened.
The One-Tron flashes to life:
LEGENDARY 43 (flashback)
America: But first he takes on Justice “I’m Full of Myself” Cross for the Glory Championship.
Justice: Full of myself? I’ll show you what I am. Getting up from her chair taking the headset off Justice walked over to America and looked at her.
Narrowing her eyes she would turn to look to the fans then look back at America bringing her hand up and slaps America in the face knocking the headset off her head! Justice then grabs the water pitcher on the table and smashes it over America’s head!
Taj: WHAT IN THE WORLD?! WE NEED HELP DOWN HERE!
Justice grabs the mic from the ring announcer. Bending down to America’s face she stealthy spoke to her.
Justice: I’m probably going to get fined for that but you know what, it was worth it. Taj, I just did you a big favor. You’re welcome. Now let me get to Aleki.
Medics scrambled down to the ring to tend to America as Justice steps up onto the ring apron, a fiery determination in her eyes. She raises the microphone to her lips as the crowd's anticipation built.
GM: And in the days after this incident, One Wrestle Management suspended
Cross, which meant she would have to relinquish her title. Days after that announcement we get word that Ricky Stanton would be crowned Interim Glory Champion until Cross’s suspension is complete and he has taken great advantage of this situation setting everything that you see right now. We got balloons, we got cake, we got security, and all the participants in tonight’s show are here and man, it still feels bad.
K: BAD? I LOVE THIS! Ricky said he’d remake Glory into HIS image and he’s done JUST THAT.
Justice walks through the arena with Brianna as cameras follow them. Throughout the journey SE Goons are seen standing around watching Justice walk to the ring, some even clapping… One of the Gones nods and tells Justice “You’ll be back hang in there…”, but others say nothing just watching her make the walk.
GM: Looks like no one is really saying anything but they are on high alert. Justice is a very keen, smart champion and they’re waiting for anyone to step in on her behalf
K: That’s why Ricky is a genius! He knows that if anyone was to get involved he could spot them and get them out the arena tonight. This walk is strategic.
The crowd pops for Justice as her music hits and she finally makes her way to the top of the ramp and walks down ringside Brianna follows in tow and as they enter the ring and they sit in front of a table bearing the SE Logo. Then “Back in Black” by ACDC hits the speakers and the crowd boos loudly as Ricky “The House” Stanton comes out to the ramp. He stops and smiles and claps at the people as the words “The House Always wins” is on the big screen. He stops and looks behind him.
”Industry Baby" by Gill the Ill feat. JVZEL hits the speakers and it’s CASS BAUMER!!!!
I told you long ago, on the road
I got what they waitin' for
I don't run from nothin', dog
Get your soldiers, tell 'em I ain't layin' low
You was never really rootin' for me anyway
When I'm back up at the top, I wanna hear you say
He don't run from nothin', dog
Get your soldiers, tell 'em that the break is over…
I got what they waitin' for
I don't run from nothin', dog
Get your soldiers, tell 'em I ain't layin' low
You was never really rootin' for me anyway
When I'm back up at the top, I wanna hear you say
He don't run from nothin', dog
Get your soldiers, tell 'em that the break is over…
K: WHOOOAAAAAAA!!!!!!
GM: THE EVER CONTROVERSIAL CASS BAUMER IS HERE!!! SHE IS HERE WITH THE PRETTY GM AND MY GOD WHAT’S GOING ON!!!!!!!
The two shake hands as they head ringside, Cass carrying a black briefcase. The crowd doesn’t know what to think as the two enter the ring with SE Goons joining them. At the ramp, tonight’s participants in Glory stand at the top of the ramp watching as SE Goons block off the way to the ring. Ricky and Cass have a seat and Ricky picks up a mic.
PRS: Ok, Ok, OKAY. We all know why we’re here so let’s get to it. Justice, (people booing loud) it’s obvious why we are here and I respect you doing this. You owning up to your actions and such and blah. Before we continue did you want to say anything to the fans you failed…
Crowd boos even louder.
GM: THAT WAS A CHEAPSHOT
JC: Actually, I do. Thank you for allowing me to address the fans as I know you didn’t have to do that. It’s very kind of you. But to all of the fans of One Wrestle Movement and to my fans as well, I’m sorry I let you all down. I was not being the champion that I should have been and there are consequences for those things. I attacked another human being. I shouldn’t have done that and now Ihave to abide by the consequences. I need to learn that at the end of the day, I am not above or bigger than anyone in this company. Also real quick, I need to do something that I should have done already. This goes to Vaughn so I hope you are listening. Vaughn, what I did to you was wrong and I put you in the hospital because of it. That wasn’t me and I am sorry for what I did to you. In fact, send me your medical bills and I will pay for them all. You know what Ricky? Just go ahead and continue because it isn’t going to matter what I say.
Ricky looks at her and shrugs and agree.
PRS: Well, if that’s it then there’s only one thing left to do
Stands up. Justice stands up and hands out the Glory Championship. Ricky smiles and raises his hands up in a way to assume he wants her to put the belt around his waist).
K: WOWWWWWW
GM: Ricky is just…I have no words
K: This is the poetry of Stanton! He did this for her when she beat him at the help of Aleki Kekoa and now he wants her to do the same for him!
PRS: Go on Justice…I won’t bite.
As she gave him a look and said the word really off mic her gaze turned to Brianna. The two would stare each other down with Brianna pleading for Justice to just do it. She would look back to Ricky then took a step towards him.With an anguished look on her face she stood behind him and placed the belt around his waist and bucked it from behind.
Ricky smiles the entire time as she stands back beside Brianna. Ricky scratches his head.
PRS: HEY CASS, You know, as much as this feels great around my waist…
Crowd booing loudly.
K: They need to show THE NEW CHAMP SOME RESPECT!
GM: These fans are not approving of what happened here today.
PRS: YOU FANS NEED TO GIVE ME 25 DOLLARS OF SHUT UP RIGHT NOW!!! (Crowd boos more) DOESN’T MATTER! I’M THE CHAMP NOW! Now as I was SAYING….CASS, THIS BELT? It…It doesn’t feel right. I mean, I know I redesigned it and all but since I am JUST the Interim…How about we make this worth it shall we?
Cass nods in approval and unlocks the briefcase and pulls out a new title that has Ricky Stanton on the front!
K: OH WOW!!!!
GM: THE NERVE OF STANTON! DID HE REALLY GO AND CREATE AN INTERIM GLORY TITLE WITH HIS LIKENESS ON THE COVER!!! THIS IS THE EPITOME OF EGO!!!!
Cass takes the old Glory Championship and puts it in the briefcase.
PRS: I’ll hold on to that until the execs say otherwise, but for now, THIS, THIS IS THE TITLE THAT WILL REPRESENT GLORY!!!! NOW GET HER OUT OF HERE!!!
Brianna helps Justice out of the ring. People cheer and some cry as the former champion walks back up the ramp. Ricky is singing “Na Na Naaaa Naaaa Hey Hey Heeeyyyy Gooooodbyyyeeeeee” as people boo at him. He goes to a turnbuckle and holds up his new belt and kisses it as people boo even louder.
K: What a great day!
GM: The shroud of the Dark Side has indeed fallen on One Wrestle Glory.
The camera cuts back to Justice as she looks back at Stanton and the fans one last time before going behind the curtain.

Meanwhile, in the ring, Travis Levitt starts to stir, holding the back of his head. He remains on his knees for a moment, motionless, before he pounds the mat in frustration. Travis hangs his head low, his face showing a mix of dejection and frustration. Suddenly, Prince Ryder makes his way down to the ring to a mixed reaction from the crowd. Ryder slides into the ring and crouches down next to Travis, grabbing his head and speaking what looks to be words of encouragement to him.
G: And you’ve got to consider this will NOT be the last time he’s in a title match. What a show!
