Riot in West VirginiaTaped from Charleston Civic Center in Charleston, WV Sunday, December 11th, 2022
We cut backstage where we find the wild haired, purple suit wearing, Rasputin look-alike known as Leviticus. The Maharaja of Marketing stands there with a microphone in his right hand. To his right stands “The Archangel” Jessica Lasiewicz and to his left stands Summer Collins. Together this trio makes up the group known as Fabulous. Jessica and Summer are clad in their tri-colored royal blue, black, and white cheerleader uniforms. Meanwhile Captain Capitalism has a smile plastered across his face.
Leviticus: Ladies and gentlemen, you all know me as The Francsiscan Friar of Flash, The Emperor of Entrepreneurship, and Your Righteous Savior. I am the marketing guru for Fabulous but I am now The Journalistic Juggernaut! That’s right, because there isn’t anyone else worthy of interviewing Summer and Jessie, I am here to do that job as only I can! So sit back, hit record on your DVR because this is a very special moment, you are about to hear from greatness! I, Leviticus…The Most Loved Man On The Planet, The Emperor of Entrepreneurship, Captain Capitalism, Master Media Mogul, Saint Levi, Your Righteous Savior, The Titan of Twitter, The Sultan of Social Media, The Nova Wonder Killer, The Maharaja of Marketing, and The Franciscan Friar of Flash present to you the former GCW World Tag Team Champions, the former and soon to be MWE World Tag Team Champions, I present to you Summer Collins and Jessica Lasiewicz, I present to you, FABULOUS!
Summer lightly applauds. Jessica rolls her eyes.
Jessica Lasiewicz: I’m not sure you took long enough with that introduction, Levi.
Leviticus: You’re right, let me do that again. Ladies and gentlemen, you know me as…
The Archangel smacks him in the back of his head.
Jessica Lasiewicz: I was kidding, you moron.
Leviticus: Right. Well, let me get started with some real hard hitting questions. Tonight you two face a team with such an awfully original name as The Carters girls. Probably because they both have the last name Carter. Anyway, everyone knows you will win, but how easy are you going to make it? Will it be a total squash or will you let them get some offense in?
Lasiewicz again rolls her eyes. Summer smirks.
Summer Collins: Normally we would have no problem going out there and putting on an entertaining show for our wonderful and absolutely FABULOUS audience, but you see, Levi, Jess and I are here on a mission. We want to regain the MWE World Tag Team Championship and we are not going to let anyone stand in our way. We are not going to let anyone stop us.
Jessica Lasiewicz: In other words, the fun and games are over. Summer and I are here to be taken seriously. We are here to regain our spot and status as the premier tag team in all of professional wrestling. The Carter Girls are going to be an example of what everyone else can expect as we march towards our rightful title match.
Summer Collins: We were absolutely Fabulous before being absolutely Fabulous was cool. We were the most dominant belt collecting set of tag champs before that was a thing. Beating twin tag teams? Been there, done that. No one in this division can touch us. Especially not the Carter Girls.
Leviticus: You heard it here folks! Your future MWE World Tag Team Champions have spoken!
Tag Team Match
The Carter Girls VS Fabulous
- For Fabulous, this match was just a step on their path to their second Tag Title reign, but for Evelyn and Jessica it was a massive opportunity to keep their momentum going after their first win as a team last week. Taking on former Champs was a daunting task, but the Carter Girls were determined to impress and keep climbing the ranks in the tag division.
- Evelyn and Jessica started off with the right foot, still flying high on enthusiasm after the success obtained on the last Riot, showing a growing chemistry as they connected a double suplex on Summer Collins. Anderson then followed with an elbow drop to the heart and made the cover, but Collins kicked out in two.
- Vi tried a neckbreaker but Summer escaped the attempt and pushed the former Academy student toward Jessica who was standing in the corner. Lasiewicz hit the young girl with a forearm strike to the face that sent Carter stumbling back into a backbreaker by Collins. Evelyn kicked out but it was clear that the tides had turned.
- Cutting the ring in half and isolating Evelyn from her sister in law, the number one contenders to the MWE Tag Team titles showed the world why they’re considered one of the best teams in the business. Vi received the Golden Kiss Of Death, and it was a very close call for the young girl, saved by her tag partner.
- Jessica tried to get the momentum back after Evelyn managed to tag out, bringing the fight to her homonymous opponent. Carter jumped and hit her with the hip attack known as Ass Kisser, knocking the Archangel down. Being close to the corner, Carter attempted the corner springboard moonsault but Lasiewicz got her knees up in time to protect herself.
- Both women crawled to their corners and made tags at pretty much the same time, and the final moments of the match saw Evelyn and Summer battling it out. Carter surprised the veteran with a cutter, but Collins managed to kick out. Vi picked her up and sent her into the ropes, jumping in the air for a dropkick. She didn’t hit Summer who hung on the ropes to stop the momentum, watching the young and inexperienced opponent crash on the mat.Jessica tagged herself in again right before Summer delivered a running forearm strike to Evelyn. She then picked her up in a powerbomb position and turned toward her partner who jumped from the turnbuckle and delivered a diving uppercut for the win.
WINNER: Fabulous BY: Pinfall (Deadly Disrespect), 7:53

Singles Match
Nate Krelle VS Crystal Caldwell
- Second match on Riot for the Anti-Trend Nate Krelle, this time taking on an experienced opponent in Crystal Caldwell. Nate took the early advantage as he worked over Crystal with a headlock, but the Blossoming Rose got her way out of the hold and locked in a headlock of her own. Krelle powered out of it and pushed the opponent into the ropes, taking her down with a massive lariat.
- With the size and power advantage so overwhelmingly in Nate’s favor, Crystal had to play it smart to raise her chances to beat the Newcastle native. With a drop toe hold she took Krelle down and furiously began to stomp the back of his head, finishing with a standing shooting star press.
- Caldwell tried to wear him down with a headlock, using her legs to squeeze the life out of him. Krelle was unwilling to tap out, muscling his way out of the hold and backing into the corner. When Crystal came running toward him, he raised his leg and leveled her with a boot to the face.
- The two competitors found themselves batting on the apron, trading strikes in precarious balance. Krelle connected a kick to the gut and dropped Crystal with a nast apron DDT that left the Blossoming Rose motionless. Nate took a moment to hype himself up with the fans before entering the ring and looking to finish things off.
- Crystal didn’t seem to have the strength for another comeback, landing a few weak kicks that only seemed to anger Nate even more. The Englishman pinned her into the corner and delivered some elbow strikes to the cornered opponent, breaking what little fight she had left in herself. Slowly, he dragged her in the middle of the ring and planted her with the F’n Krelle (ruby cutter) for the one, two, three.
WINNER: Nate Krelle BY: Pinfall (F’n Krelle), 6:26

The scene opens up outside the arena where Selena Lyre is seen evidently just arriving as she is walking through the parking lot carrying her bags over her shoulder, with Mr.X walking slowly behind her when a backstage interviewer comes up to them.
Camille Bellamy: Hi Selena! Congrats on your victory last week over Rainer, and Karen.
Selena pauses, smiling at the interviewer.
Selena Lyre: Thank you kindly, but I can’t take all the credit, because Gabriel held up his end of the team, and it was bitter sweet to knock the so called power couple down a notch, and hopefully it will shut those two up for a little bit.
Camille Bellamy: I doubt that, but moving on to tonight. Tiffany Lynn Page said on twitter that tonight she plans on giving you a proper welcome to Millennium, do you have any thoughts on that?
Selena pauses for a moment, tapping her right pointer on her lips for a moment before speaking up.
Selena Lyre: I get it, I am the new girl here, and everyone is looking to make me pay my dues, which is fine. I plan on paying my dues and working my way from the bottom to the top, and if she plans on beating me tonight? It won’t be easy, because hey I know she wants a shot at the Junior Heavyweight Championship, but the problem with that is I have unfinished business with Reiner, and I plan on becoming Junior Heavyweight Champion myself, so Tiffany I am not going to complain about deserving to have that title shot, nor am I one to deny your dreams. Tonight we will settle it in the ring, and determine who gets the shut Reigner up once, and for all. See you out there!.
Selena pats the Backstage Interviewer on their left shoulder and walks past them with Mr.X in tow as the scene comes to an end.
Singles Match
Veronica Sawyer VS Faith Savell
- Seeing Veronica Sawyer in singles action is nothing new, but with the issues that recently have plagued her partnership with Matt Stone and the rumors of PCP splitting up gaining strength, the fans looked at this match with great curiosity. Savell didn’t really care and came out firing early with a couple of kicks and strikes to Sawyer, scoring an early near fall.
- Ronnie reacted immediately, taking Faith off of her feet with a hurricanrana. The former Cloud Gate champion quickly got back to her feet and charged toward the Canadian who ducked the Masterclass’ clothesline attempt and quickly turned around to meet her with a leg lariat as she bounced back from the ropes. Once again Faith didn’t stay down for long, but her time on her feet was even shorter as a standing dropkick knocked her right back down.
- Savell slowed the pace of the match down as she started to work over Sawyer. Faith hit a tiger suplex but she was unable to attempt a pin because Ronnie rolled under the bottom rope, taking a breather on the apron. Faith immediately dragged her to her feet and, still holding her by her hair, slammed her face first into the top turnbuckle. The Masterclass then climbed on the middle rope, all while trying to hoist her opponent on the corner. She attempted a superplex but Veronica blocked the attempt and knocked her down with a headbutt before jumping onto her with a diving legdrop that gave her a long count of two.
- The fans were enjoying the back and forth, and while none of the women was high on their “most loved list”, the quality match they were putting on kept the crowd really invested. Savell hit Sawyer with a running hurricanrana, taking her out on the canvas. Veronica hit Faith with her Love At First Kick followed by a running shooting star press but The Masterclass was still able to kick out.
- The Canadian seemed to be well on her way to what many would consider an upset win, but Faith still had something left in her tank and took her out of mid-air with a superkick followed by an inverted DDT but Sawyer was still able to get her shoulder up at the last second. The Masterclass didn’t lose her cool at the incredibly close call, taking a few steps back and watching Veronica clawing at the canvas like a predator would watch their wounded prey right before delivering the fatal shot. In her case, it was the Lost Your Faith curb stomp that secured the win for the Masterclass.
WINNER: Faith Savell BY: Pinfall (Lost Your Faith), 8:43

“Too Sexy” Tiffany Lynn Page is walking down a backstage hallway as she is on her cell phone with Duke.
“Too Sexy” Tiffany Lynn Page: We both know Karen wouldn’t dare try anything again. At least not right now but I’m not worried about it because I have Clyde here to watch my back.
Tiffany pauses and listens to Duke talk.
“Too Sexy” Tiffany Lynn Page: I have to go, babe. I’ll text you later on after my match. Love you.
Tiffany hangs up her phone.
“Too Sexy” Tiffany Lynn Page: Before I go on some sort of angry tangent about how much Karen is a troll. Let me welcome Selena to MWE…at the very least now that I am officially aware of you. Regardless of how long or short of time you have been in MWE is immaterial.
Tiffany arrives back at her locker room and she puts her phone back in her purse.
“Too Sexy” Tiffany Lynn Page: Not that you don’t have any talent. Hell, you might be the second coming but unlike you I am on a mission. A mission to ultimately reign over this promotion with Duke once again the World Heavyweight Champion while I become the Junior Heavyweight Champion. Not only because I love having championship gold and the notoriety it brings but because that insufferable troll has been roaming around MWE for far too long. And despite all of her objections to it I know I’ll get my comeuppance.
Tiffany smiles devilishly and she exits her locker room.
Singles Match
Tiffany Lynn-Page VS Selena Lyre
- With Tiffany Lynn-Page eyeing the Junior Heavyweight championship, the collision between the two competitors was almost inevitable. The Electric Girl was taken off guard by Lynn-Page’s cheap shot, a throat strike that left her coughing. Kick after kick, Tiffany pushed the opponent into the corner where she performed an illegal choke by raising her leg and pushing her foot against Selena’s neck.
- For the first few minutes Tiffany looked in absolute control. She used her experience advantage to stay one step ahead of her opponent with submission holds and the occasional dirty trick. Selena tried a comeback with a volley of forearm strikes but a knee to the gut folded her in two and allowed Tiffany to lift her for the Hottie Bomb (powerbomb) and score the first near fall.
- The Diva tried to connect her Alluring brainbuster, but Selena kicked away at her. Feeling that this was the opening her protegé needed, Mister X kept motivating Lyre, rallying the fans behind her. The young woman began to build momentum, rocking the former Tag champion with a knee to the face and then flooring her with a springboard dropkick.
- Selena got very close to another prestigious win with a hammerlock ddt, but Tiffany got her shoulder up in time. The Electric Girl climbed to the top rope and jumped toward her with a frog splash but Lynn-Page rolled out of the way and the young girl crashed and burned on the canvas. Tiffany kicked her in the ribs several times, almost forcing her to stand on her knees visibly in pain. Then she connected the Prima Donna and knocked Selena down for another long count of two.
- The Junior Heavyweight champion Rainer Nordhagen walked down the ramp accompanied by his girlfriend, Karen Eldon. The couple reassured the competitors and Mister X that they were only here to watch, but nobody was buying it. Selena’s mentor started arguing with the Lockdown champion who wasted no time hitting him with a resounding slap across the face. Selena, who had just knocked Tiffany down with a superkick, turned her attention to Mister X and Karen, and so did the referee, shouting at Eldon to leave. Rainer sneaked in and hit Tiffany in the face with his title as soon as she got to her feet, leaving the ring before anyone would notice. Karen apologized to Mister X and stepped back, allowing the match to continue. Not knowing what happened behind her shoulders, Selena saw the opponent still laying on the mat and climbed to the top rope for the Star Drop (shooting star press), securing the win.
WINNER: Selena Lyre BY: Pinfall (Star Drop), 11:09

Backstage we find Angelica Jones in her dressing room. The Dragon is already in her ring gear and looks ready to compete as she does some final stretching in preparation for her match against the dominant Riot Champion Clyde Sutter. Angelica’s prep time is interrupted when she hears a knocking at her dressing room door. She stands up and turns to greet the visitor, whomever it may be.
Angelica Jones: Kim, is that you?
She is anticipating a visit from her daughter. The door opens and she is instead greeted by the unexpected arrival of her cousin, the reigning MWE World Champion Glory Braddock. The British Bombshell is wearing a fuchsia v-neck sleeveless dress that stops just above the knee. She is perched atop high heeled sandals and her long beautiful blonde hair hangs straight and unrestrained to past the shoulders. She has her MWE World Championship title belt draped over her right shoulder.
Glory Braddock: Sorry to disappoint you, cousin.
Angelica Jones: What are you doing here, Glory? You’re scheduled to be here tonight?
Glory Braddock: Oh but I am the MWE World Champion. I have the right to be wherever I want. So why shouldn’t I be here to show my support for my dear sweet cousin?
Braddock chuckles softly.
Glory Braddock: In a few days you are going to war in a Seven Stages of Hell Match against Jazmyn Rain. Yet tonight you’re putting all of that at risk by facing Clyde Sutter. You have a lot of courage, Angel. It isn’t exactly the most intelligent of moves, but you are courageous.
The Dragon rolls her eyes.
Angelica Jones: I know why you’re here. You don’t like Sutter. You’re not my biggest fan. I’m sure you’d just love to see the two of us beat the hell out of one another.
Glory Braddock: You’re wrong, as usual.
Braddock places a hand on Angelica’s shoulder.
Glory Braddock: We are family, Angel. First cousins. I’m here to help. Why should you put yourself on the line tonight? Forfeit tonight. Focus on surviving Seven Stages of Hell. Maybe you can even help me…
Angelica Jones: Help you with what? Help you retain against Tiff?
Braddock shrugs her shoulders.
Glory Braddock: That’s what family is for, isn’t it? We support one another. We help one another.
Angelica Jones: We DO support one another. And I do wish you the best of luck against Tiff. But I’m not going to help you cheat.
Braddock shrugs her shoulders.
Glory Braddock: Oh well…I was just trying to be nice. You’re wrong again, Angel. I don’t need any help. But maybe you do against Clyde Sutter.
Braddock walks off. Angelica rolls her eyes and returns to her stretching routine.
Pre-recorded…
It is nighttime out on the streets. We hear the sound of footsteps echoing, breaking through the silence of this empty darkness. There is a lamp post that shines down a single spotlight within this darkness. The footsteps grow louder, get closer; eventually we spot the silhouette of a figure. The figure steps into the spotlight and we can see that this is “The Assassin” Clyde Sutter. The MWE Riot Champion is dressed in black dress pants, black shoes, a white button up shirt, and a black leather jacket. His MWE Riot Championship is draped over his right shoulder. A cold yet confident smirk is etched across his face.
Clyde Sutter: Despair. It often leads to desperation.
He points a finger at the camera.
Clyde Sutter: Are you desperate, Ms. Jones? Your sudden return to in-ring action leads some to believe that you are. How many people have come out of retirement, how many people have attempted to fight father time only to be beaten back and taught the long, harsh lesson that you cannot stop fate? Just look at American Football these days. Tom Brady came out of retirement and look at the state of his team now. Brett Favre once tried to come out of retirement and it was a miserable failure. So that leads me to ask the question, are you desperate, Ms. Jones? Are you desperate to relive your glory days? Or are you desperately fighting a losing battle against fate?
He shakes his head.
Clyde Sutter: If you are fighting fate then let me assure you that you are fighting a losing battle. Everyone must retire one of these days. No one can live forever. However if you truly do “want to go out on your terms” then I applaud you for your efforts. And if anyone can go out on their own terms then it is you. You are a thirteen time former world champion. You are The Dragon. Your violence and brutality are legendary. But is it enough to survive me? That remains to be seen. Is it enough to survive fate? No…it is not…no one can survive fate. Not even The Dragon.
He pats the Riot Championship title belt that rests over his right shoulder.
Clyde Sutter: Fate has blessed me with this. Fate has rewarded me for my hard work by giving me the Riot Brand to rule over and I have ruled over it with an iron fist. No one has come close to challenging me. But perhaps there is one worthy of challenging me? Perhaps Mr. Raynes has what it takes to finally give me a true test?
He chuckles.
Clyde Sutter: Mr. Raynes, out dance has only just begun. Watch. Take notes. See what I do to Ms. Jones here tonight. It could be your fate…
Singles Match
Angelica Jones VS Clyde Sutter
- The Riot champion’s attention was obviously divided between his opponent and the potential interference of Andrew Raynes. This made Jones’ job easier, at least in the first minutes of the contest when the veteran took control with kicks aimed at Clyde’s right leg. The Assassin backed down against the ropes, exploiting the break called by the referee to cheapshot Jones with a right hand to the chin. He took a step toward the stunned opponent who was quick to connect a dropkick that sent Sutter out of the ring. Wasting no time, she connected a suicide dive to the outside, knocking him down.
- When the match moved back in the ring, Angelica was still in control, although the favorable moment didn’t last long for her. A boot to the face floored her, and gave Sutter a count of two. The Assassin kept her on the ropes and hit her with a series of hard chops, before sending her tumbling over the top rope with a clothesline.
- As he dragged the opponent back in the ring, Clyde kept her horizontally on the middle rope and dropped her with a DDT. The Assassin looked in control, indulging in a stalling suplex for a few long seconds, showing off his strength. The Riot champion immediately picked her up and went for a buckle bomb but Angelica managed to counter it with a hurricanrana and sent him head-first into the middle turnbuckle.
- The Golden Goddess was giving the Assassin a run for his money, well aware of what a win tonight could mean to her. But she was also about to learn the reason why Clyde Sutter has been champion for so long. After kicking out of her Stubborn Bitch/Divine Impact combination, the Assassin still had the energy to turn things around with his Clothesline From Hell. After the brutal impact, both competitors took a few moments to recover on the mat.
- Sutter was right about one thing: Andrew Raynes was in the building and he couldn’t resist paying a visit to the Riot champion and future opponent. His slow march to the ring was more a distraction for Angelica than it was for Sutter. The Golden Goddess, in fact, had just knocked down the champ and was looking to lock him in her Angel’s Arch when she spotted Raynes approaching. His intentions were not clear, but one thing was for sure: whatever he would do, it’ll cost Jones the opportunity she was earning in the ring. That much was true even if Andrew didn’t do anything because his mere presence was enough to distract the veteran and let Sutter blast her with the Unforgiven. After the pinfall was made, Sutter stared at Raynes who simply clapped his hands at him.
WINNER: Clyde Sutter BY: Pinfall (Unforgiven), 12:28

We arrive backstage to find a small crowd gathered around a makeshift stage. While notably it is considered to be a miniature replica of the rampway that leads to the ring, several liberties have been taken with the stylings. Such as garland, berries, and colored Christmas lights that blinked in sequence. Before much can be said in terms of what exactly was going on a very loud speaker began blaring some type of circus music before there were miniature pyros exploding and out comes the one and only Haylie LaFleur, wearing instead of her signature “Formulaic” ensemble, she’s adorned in a magicians outfit only its red and sequined with fur trim to put you in mind of Santa Clause as well (a win-win for those who were ready for the holiday season). Haylie dons a major grin as her hair is pulled up and instead of a top hat she wears a santa hat that matches the sparkling nature of the rest of her ensemble.
Haylie LaFleur: Ladies and gentleman, boys and girls, gather round and feast your eyes on the one, the only, Haylie Houdini!
Featuring her own voice as a voiceover she laughs out with a smile before she pulls down on the outfit she his wearing and suddenly there is a reveal to an oversized t-shirt that has the words “Haylie Houdini” Stenciled in bright block lettering.
Haylie LaFleur: Thank you, thank you.
She measures in good spirits.
Haylie LaFleur: Last week as you all may have known things didn’t go so well, one minute the formula was locked in and the next.
She let out a major gasp that seem to take the audience by surprise, as a puff cloud of smoke entrailed and Haylie disappeared for a brief moment before returning once more. Getting a round of applause from those attending her one woman show in the backstage area.
Haylie LaFleur: It was like poof, Paula decided to take matters into her own hands, she didn’t trust the science, and due to the distraction I was taken by surprise and pinned for the three count. Since then Poor little Polly Pocket has tried her best to convince the world of her invulnerability. Although we all know the only people capable of such things are in Marvel if you will.
There was a light laugh that escaped her lips before she did another trick that was a little more uncommon each stage of the show becoming like an infomercial instead of an actual event series.
Haylie LaFleur: I don’t mind that Paula wants to keep her career from being tainted, it seems to matter so much to her and she’s such a young woman with such a bright future ahead. All she needs is a little bit of guidance and she will be ready for the world, though in certain paths of circumstance one might find hers cut short for not meeting the superhero requirements she places on herself.
Haylie couldn’t help but shake her head at that.
Haylie LaFleur: And we certainly wouldn’t want that for Miss Pocket. So we are going to do something drastic in terms of the way us LaFluerians like to approach things. We are going to challenge Paula Prodigy to make a much needed change and offer her the opportunity to bring a little magic into her life. Call it whatever you might, but Haylie Houdini is here to offer some insight.
Haylie couldn’t help but grin at this as she went to pull off one final trick.
Haylie LaFleur: But like any good magician, I can never truly reveal how I pull off my tricks. Nor, will I tell you exactly what I have planned for you Paula, but its going to be so much fun!
With that there’s a loud boom and Haylie has disappeared from the makeshift stage again, wondering just what in the hell her intentions might have been, as the small little crowd claps away in applause.
Best of Five Series Match 3: Christmas Village Street Fight Olly VS JJ Night
- Quite the picturesque and pleasant location for a match that, most likely, would have nothing pleasant about it. Both Olly and JJ were wearing street clothes, first and foremost to protect themselves from the cold. The snow covering most of the Christmas Village may have been fake, but the temperature was still so low that you could see their breath. The ref called for the bell and Olly immediately threw a ball of fake snow in Night’s face, tackling him to the ground and beginning to pound him with lefts and rights.
- JJ was at a disadvantage in such a stipulation, especially knowing Olly’s craftiness and adaptability in extreme situations. When Night seemed to have finally found a way to turn things around, forcing Olly to fall back toward Santa’s House placed on an elevated position at the center of the village, the former two-time tag champion pushed Santa’s sleigh toward his charging opponent. Night’s quick reflexes allowed him to avoid getting hit with a quick side roll. The sleigh crashed against a Christmas Tree, shattering in hundreds of pieces and scattering the presents all around. JJ got distracted by the impact and ate Olly’s Random Act Of Violence, but it wasn’t enough to keep him down.
- Olly was on top of his opponent now, raining down punches to his face. JJ was able to get his legs in positions to push upward and send him flying through the ample window of Santa’s house. The K2O hoodie Olly was wearing somehow protected him from the glass shards, although one fragment cut through the fabric and tore the skin of his back open. A superficial wound that would have definitely be a lot worse without clothes, but still something that would bother him as the match continued.
- Luckily, they left Santa’s House without further damage, fighting through the village streets until they reached a stage set up. JJ grabbed a giant prop candy cane and repeatedly hit the rival with it, across the head and back. Then he set him up on a table and, in spite of any safety regulations and common sense, climbed the stage light scaffolding and jumped on Olly with a reckless 450 splash. It still wasn’t enough to keep him down.
- Using some Christmas Lights, Olly tried to choke the long-time rival. Night struggled and eventually broke free, but the pressure applied on his neck left him struggling to breathe and with a visible bruise around his neck. As he was catching his breath, Olly scooped him up as if he was going for a powerslam but rather than slamming him on the ground, he drove him onto the street lamp.
- The intensity of the fight led them to the ice rink. JJ arched his back in pain as Olly pushed him into the barricade. The member of the Division charged toward him for a running clothesline but Night sent him flying over the barricade with a back body drop. Olly tried to get up to his feet but he couldn’t keep his balance on the ice and immediately fell down on his ass. Seeing it as an unique opportunity, JJ climbed on the edge of the barricade and jumped toward Olly, hitting him with the Chidori (springboard forearm smash). The referee jumped in to make the count and, obviously, comically slipped on the ice surface and fell down. He started drifting farther away from them, but he still made the count to three.
WINNER: JJ Night BY: Pinfall (Chidori), 13:24

RED LINE PROMO
Singles Match
Seth Iser VS Anna Daniels
- Anna Daniels couldn’t count on the support of the fans tonight as the West Virginia crowd was completely sided with the hometown hero, Seth Iser. The first minutes were prerogative of Seth, with the veteran imposing his physicality on the Time Lord. He hit Anna with some hard strikes before lifting her and dropping her on his knee for a backbreaker. Absolutely in no rush, he picked her up and sent her into the corner with an european uppercut. Lifting her on the top rope, he attempted a superplex but Daniels fought back and managed to drop him on the canvas, following with a missile dropkick as soon as he stood back up.
- Daniels kept the pressure on the former World Champion with swift and hard kicks, aiming mostly at the big man’s legs. She then went for a bicycle kick but Iser sidestepped and picked her up for a pendulum backbreaker, hooking the leg for a first cover attempt and getting a count of two out of it.
- As opposed to his match against Pierce Manning at 5ive, Seth switched back to his mat wrestling based style, imposing a slow pace to keep the Muse grounded. Anna tried to escape his figure four leg lock, but it wasn’t easy to get out of his tight grasp. Reaching the ropes looked like a more viable option even though they weren’t as close as she would have liked. But eventually Daniels was able to get to them and get the much needed break.
- Daniels was now laying on the apron, trying to regroup safe from Seth’s attacks. Or at least that’s what she thought. Seth dragged her up and suplexed her back in the ring. Up to his feet, Iser decided to go for a falling elbow drop but Daniels rolled out of the way. The Time Lord went to counterattack, stomping the crap out of the veteran before landing with her leg across his neck with a springboard legdrop.
- The fans were really into this match, making the perfect setting for this incredible main event. But I guess we really can't have nice things, not even this close to Christmas. Pierce Manning and his wife Megan came out to the ring, almost causing the crowd to Riot as they easily read their intentions. The boos were deafening, empty cups and all kind of trash was getting thrown at the couple as they approached the ring. Seth and Anna were both laying on the canvas after hitting each other with bicycle kicks, but they slowly got up to their feet sensing the duo coming for them. Manning brought Seth back to Dick Kick city while Megan blasted Daniels with the Mega Kick, giving the ref no other choice but to call the match a no contest.

Cameras move backstage where we see 'The Prodigy' Paula Parker who doesn't seem to be in a great mood. As the cameras catch up to her, she halts them by holding a single hand up directly in front of the lens. She gives it a gentle push, not trying to knock the camera man over or anything of the nature, but simply to keep the camera out of her face.
Paula Parker: I'm sure you want a comment. I know the entire world wants to hear from me. 'How does it feel to suffer your first loss?', 'How can you call yourself a Prodigy when you lost in your first five matches?', excetera excetera. I've heard it all, and frankly, I'm tired of hearing it. The reality is, I haven't lost anything. I have yet to have my shoulders pinned to the mat and I would never consider tapping out. So the way I see it, and the way the announcers will introduce me, it will be as THE UNDEFEATED, unblemished, unbreakable Prodigy, Paula Parker.
She smirks a bit before quickly going back to her standoff mode and expression.
Paula Parker: I don't have much else to say tonight. Ashley Belle has bored me leading into this match. She hasn't engaged me in social media, and come on, I'm 18, social media is the fun side of this stuff. But you know what, Ash? Since you don't seem to care about the match, perhaps I can interest you in something else. How about after this match, you get on your knees, kiss my boots, and then pick up a microphone and follow me everywhere at every show to get exclusive comments? You can be my personal interviewer...if you prove yourself worthy as even that. Regardless, it's time to continue my undefeated streak, and Ashley? I'm not sorry in advance.
Parker walks right by the camera man and continues down the hallway. Is she truly undefeated? Will the ringside announcers announce her as such? We'll find out!
Singles Match
Paula Parker VS Ashley Belle
- The Prodigy against the Perfect Ten, two young and confident women ready to take MWE by storm. Ashley’s debut was nothing short of impressive, and so has been The Undefeated (if we ignore tag team matches) Paula Parker.
- Belle offered her hand to Parker who didn’t hesitate and shook it. Of course it was a ruse and the Perfect 10 immediately kicked the opponent in the stomach, but Paula was definitely expecting that, blocking her foot and taking her down with a dragon screw leg whip. Paula showed a more aggressive side tonight, sliding down and landing a few punches to the opponent’s head.
- A leaping knee sent Paula into the ropes, apparently stunned. Ashley charged to her but Parker sent her over the top rope with a back body drop. Showing good agility and coordination, Belle landed on the apron and immediately reached for Paula’s face with her hand and raked her eyes. As the blinded Prodigy stumbled to the center of the ring, her brother tried to sweep Ashley’s legs but the perfect then avoided the blow with a leap and kicked Jesse in the face. Belle’s bodyguard, the former wrestler Victor De Luca, leveled leveled him with a brutal spear, clearing the way for Paula to get back in the ring with a springboard crossbody worth a count of two.
- As the two women fought in the ring, their bodyguards were battling outside. Paula’s brothers Jackie and Justin easily overcame Policy and avenged Jesse, stomping and kicking De Luca. Their sister, instead, wasn’t doing too well inside the ring. Ashley dropped her with an implant DDT but it wasn’t enough to break Paula’s undefeated streak.
- A loud crash turned everyone’s attention on the outside. Policy had just put Justin through the commentary table after disposing of Jackie, who was seen laying on the floor with his hands on the crotch area. While the ref and Ashley had their eyes turned to the carnage outside, Jesse pushed a chair in the ring and his sister was quick to blast Belle with it. She rolled her up real quick while her brother removed the foreign object before the referee could see it. The count was made, Paula obtained another controversial win.
- List item 6
WINNER: Paula Parker BY: Pinfall (Roll-up), 7:37

Just as the Mannings, taking a ridiculous amount of verbal abuse from the audience, are about to circle the ring, we then hear another voice start to cut in.
Vincent Moretti: Let me do you a favor!
Vincent’s longtime catchphrase is said and he’s in a suit. All four people now have his attention as do the fans in Charleston, West Virginia.
Vincent Moretti: Yes, Charleston, West Virginia…let me do you a favor since it seems like a couple of people want to get hasty and get involved in our main event that I wanted to advertise as a first ever. I know I hate changing matches on the fly but…I’m going to have to make an exception for this one. So…if all parties approve and there’s a lot of unfinished business here, how about the Mannings, Pierce and Megan…
And before too long the entire audience jeers heavily before letting out a loud, profane ‘Fuck you Mannings’ chant toward the duo. Pierce covers up Megan’s ears to prevent her from hearing the full chant but there’s a guy in suspenders waving a profane caricature of the two, and if this fan showed his teeth we’d see why West Virginia invented the toothbrush…
Vincent Moretti: Take on the two people who I had scheduled to face each other…Anna Daniels and Seth Iser!
The audience cheers this proposal. And right away there’s little hesitation from Anna who is gesturing for the two to bring it on. But there’s a pause as this time it’s Iser who has hold of a microphone and Anna looks at him…suspiciously.
Seth Iser: You know…I don’t like rewarding bad behavior…
The crowd jeers that sentence for a moment as Iser gestures to his fellow statesmen to keep their composure. His face then turns vicious.
Seth Iser: But if it’s all the same to Anna…I’ll allow it and Pierce…Megan…we’re going to kick your asses so bad that the locals here are going to use your BONE MARROW as a secret ingredient for their next moonshine!
And with that last statement there’s a spike of the microphone from Iser and both Anna and Seth seem to be in agreement and gesture the Mannings to come on over…and the crowd is split now. One half is chanting for Anna…and the other half is now chanting that Iser will in fact…murder the Mannings.
Vincent Moretti: Alright ref, it’s a tag match. It is truly time for our main event! Let’s go!
With that Vincent turns on his heel and walks off while Pierce is half snarling at Vincent and half…still covering Megan’s ears so she doesn’t have to hear the West Virginian fans.
Tag Team Match
Seth Iser & Anna Daniels VS Pierce Manning & Megan Manning
- Forget the calm and collected Seth we saw against Daniels, the one standing in the ring with Pierce was one pissed off S.O.B. He demolished Pierce with a volley of stiff punches. The referee had to get involved more than once to reproach him from using closed fists: unlike their match at the last PPV, the official wasn't going to overlook that kind of blows. Manning stuck in the corner gave Seth an interesting idea. He hung Pierce upside down and kicked him on the chest before tagging out and giving Anna the chance to get her pound of flesh. The Muse charged at full speed and hit the former Riot champion with a low dropkick to the face.
- An hurricanrana attempt by the Time Lord was countered with a powerbomb by the Man. This was his opportunity to leave the stage to his wife, who more than happily took the chance to avenge the loss suffered at the hands of Daniels. The two traded chops in the center of the ring, Manning got the best of the situation but Anna returned fire with a couple of chops. Daniels went for a monkey flip but the former IC Champion landed on her feet and, without even turning back, rocked Anna with a Pele Kick
- Manning started building some momentum but a missed crescent kick put her in a very unpleasant situation. Anna connected the Treeish Doctor, but that wasn't enough to keep Manning down. The following blue thunder bomb brought The Muse a little bit closer to the three, but Megan still kicked out. Eventually the fatigue of going for over 15 minutes with Iser caught up on Daniels, and Manning was quick to take advantage and blast her with a discus elbow smash.
- Anna resisted the opponent's attacks, kicking out from the Gamengirl Kick. Somehow the Time Lord managed to stun her long enough to make the tag, leaving the stage to Seth. Months of tension after the Great Betrayal were about to get settled in this very ring tonight, but Meg had other plans and tagged herself out.
- The final moments of the match were rather chaotic. First Pierce came close to the win with his hangman's neckbreaker but Anna was quick to get in the ring and save her partner. Then it was Seth's turn to get a near fall off his Pillar Of Truth, but Megan was able to make the save. Before leaving the ring, the former IC champion was able to give her husband his trusted sock full of dimes, keeping it concealed from the referee. Pierce used it to blast and knock down the former World Champion, finishing him with the Know Your Place. Megan made sure Anna couldn't make the save this time, flooring her with the Mega Kick
WINNER: Pierce Manning & Megan Manning BY: Pinfall (Know Your Place), 11:39
