Tenacity Wrestling - Show 3: No Disgrace Like Dishonor December 08, 2023
SEGMENT: 'CLE’-RROR TIME AGAIN’
EXT: THE VENUE - SOUTH ENTRANCE - STAFF ONLY.
The video package recaps the last few shows. Showcasing Raion winning the first fatal four way in the company's history, Victoria battling to claim her third win, Matt Stone holding three fingers up after qualifying, and lastly Scotty Latimer winning his third match to qualify for the event.
The package fades to the crowd in attendance and then a quick montage of several fans interviewed ahead of the event.
Aaron Kelly, dressed in a Matt Stone t-shirt. Spikey black hair, sunglasses on indoors, Matt Stone MWE t-shirt on with a waistcoat over it.
AARON KELLY: Matt Stone all the way. All the way. He's about to make all these other fans sour at the final hour baby!
Cosplaying as ‘Jerryca Carter’, looking like the interviewer/wrestler is Jerry Sandon, who's got all the collectable pins of all the wrestling companies on his lanyard.
‘JERRYCA’: I'm sure as sure it's Raion Kido taking the title tonight, however it's eventually coming to Jessica. Raion is winning tonight though. He's already proved it once, he'll do it again.
Elena Contovalos, who's with her two friends, sporting a fresh aqua blue hair color with her right side shaven and her left side kept shoulder length. Wearing a comfortable hoodie, black leggings and a blue checkered skirt.
ELENA CONTOVALOS: First time seeing all these wrestlers in person. So excited. The Grand Championship, in my opinion, is going home with our favorite wrestler. Scotty Latimer.
Peter Simons, first seen in the inaugural episode of Tenacity Wrestling, has bought a ticket. Dressed down in jeans and a sports coat for the event.
PETER SIMONS: Mark my words. Victoria Salinas walks out as the Grand Champion of this whole place.
CUT TO: INT. THE VENUE - INTERVIEW AREA.
Jessica Carter is seen dressed in a lavish outfit for the interview as she's joined by two relatives of Sabrina Smith, that being Clementine Smith and Millie Smith. Clementine went for a dress for the evening, sporting her usual tan, with her makeup and hair done to look her best but not overdoing it. Wearing her. Millie on the other hand
JESSICA CARTER: Acadettes in the house! Welcome to the madhouse. First, Clem, what do you think of the dress? Wait, Millie first!
Millie is surprised she's got to answer first and nods with a smile. Clementine then adds.
CLEMENTINE SMITH: Fantastic.
JESSICA CARTER: That's what I was going for. So, Acadettes. The Grand Championship is up for grabs. It's between Raion, Scott, Matt, and Victoria. Which contender do you think is walking out the inaugural champion?
CLEMENTINE SMITH: So we actually differ a little. I say it's between Victoria and Raion. Millie thinks it's between Scotty and Matt.
JESSICA CARTER: So either way one of you is right tonight.
Millie and Clem looked at one another nodding.
JESSICA CARTER: How about my match? Who you got?
CLEMENTINE SMITH: Well, you’re putting us both on the spot there, Jess..
MILLIE SMITH: On purpose.
Jessica grinned and waited for her reply.
CUT TO: INT. ARENA - HALLWAY
Watching the interview happen is none other than MATT STONE. His glasses reflect Millie Smith in the lens. He’s dressed in some smart black pants, a long sleeve black v-neck. Beside Matt, 6ft away, is the resident Chef DANE MITCHELL. In a long sleeve white shirt, a pair of sunglasses tucked down and hanging on his neckline with a smart belt and equally smart black pair of pants on. It appears neither of them have clocked; the other is beside them as they watch the interview unfold.
CUT TO: INT. THE VENUE - INTERVIEW AREA.
Back to the interview rapping up, Jessica now looks directly into the camera.
JESSICA CARTER: That’s everything from me. I better go find your sister (pointing to Millie), your cousin (pointing to Clem), one of my bosses (pointing to herself) and get the scoop on the status of the general manager for Tenacity Wrestling.
Jess then moved the mic to Clementine.
CLEMENTINE SMITH: Sounds good! I think Millie and I will go and have a look around in that case. Good luck, Jess!
MILLIE SMITH: Best of luck with Noah.
JESSICA CARTER: I think I’ll need it!
CUT TO: INT. ARENA - HALLWAY
Matt Stone and Dane still haven’t noticed the other, nor NOAH LEIFFSON walking up behind the pair. Noah saw them both watching the Acadettes interview and mischievously landed a booming opener.
NOAH LEIFFSON: How we doing, boys!
Both staff and star are startled; Dane grabbing his chest.
DANE MITCHELL: (AT THE SAME TIME) Don’t-do that. Thought I was getting attacked.
MATT STONE: (AT THE SAME TIME) You mother-
NOAH LEIFFSON: It’s all good. I hope you two weren’t staring at my opponent too much.
DANE MITCHELL: (AT THE SAME TIME) What? We weren’t looking at her.
MATT STONE: (AT THE SAME TIME) Are you serious? Really?
NOAH LEIFFSON: I’m just teasing. But good luck tonight, Matt. I’m expecting a great meal tonight too, Dane.
Noah then walked ahead of the pair leaving them, as Matt then turns to Dane.
MATT STONE: What the heck are you doing here? Shouldn’t you be getting prep work?
DANE MITCHELL: I’m on break, Matt. But shouldn’t you be getting prepared for the match tonight?
MATT STONE: My pre-match ritual is sacred and I don’t need a student of the game telling the master of it how to prepare. Afterwards I do want a special dish hand delivered to my locker room when I am grand champion. Hope you’ve got a notepad because I want..
With each item, Matt got hit by the “WHAT” chant
MATT STONE: Sesame Seed Bun. Cream Cheese Spread on the buns Fried Onions sprinkled over that spread, on one bun. A slice of premium cheese fit for the champ Melted on a patty pressed using the delicious garlic sausage meat Can you do that, Dane?
DANE MITCHELL: I don’t have that in. To put that together I’m going to have to go out.
MATT STONE: Better hurry then, Dane.
Dane visibly threw his head back, then knuckled under.
DANE MITCHELL: Okay.
CUT TO: DANE MITCHELL TALKING HEAD - BACKSTAGE INTERVIEW ROOM.
DANE MITCHELL: I’m pretty sure Sabrina emails out any special requests. This request coming in late is, just,....
Dane threw his hands up with a straight, but annoyed expression.
(Scene End)
SEGMENT: 'SCOTT’
INT: THE VENUE - STAFF ROOM
Inside the staff room we find Scotty Latimer currently having a pre-match with official Boscoe, sharing some experiences as an experienced Dad and a new dad. After Latimer handed back his glass, Scotty made his way out the door only to be bumped into by Kendrick Kross.
KENDRICK KROSS: Walk much?
SCOTTY LATIMER: You need to watch where you’re going. You saw me come out.
KENDRICK KROSS: I didn’t. I got my eyes fixed on my phone. Soaking in all the info like a sponge, right up to the very last minute. Unlike you. While you’re what? Trying to get a referee job when you inevitably lose tonight.
SCOTTY LATIMER: You want to pull double duty? Cus I’d happily meet you out in the ring and show you who’s gonna be Grand Champion.
KENDRICK KROSS: Nah. I’m up next. I’m not gonna give Coda any advantage. Watch yourself, because after tonight I’ll be one win away from the Grand Championship.
CUT TO: KENDRICK KROSS TALKING HEAD - BACKSTAGE INTERVIEW ROOM.
Kendrick is seen posing to the camera briefly before he cleared his throat to speak.
KENDRICK KROSS: And Scotty Latimer? He’s gonna be at the back of the line. Checked with Abby Blake. Whoever loses the four way tonight is back to 0 wins.
Kendrick smirked to himself, got up and walked out of frame.
CUT TO: SCOTTY LATIMER TALKING HEAD - BACKSTAGE INTERVIEW ROOM.
SCOTTY LATIMER: I hope Kendrick wins. I can’t wait to shatter his dreams in my first title defense.
(Scene End)
'MATCH #1' 'TWO IS THE MAGIC NUMBER' CODA Vs KENDRICK KROSS
INT: THE VENUE - THE RING
The initial bout began with Coda squaring up against Kendrick Kross, each taking time to pick the best time. It would be Kendrick feigning the lock up only to kick Coda in the shoulder and then stomp on her with the ropes as leverage. Coda rolled out to regroup and Kendrick Kross follows her out. Outside it’s a scrappy fight. Coda holding her own and Kendrick firing some solid punches. Kross backs off and rolled back in the ring, then tried to stomp Coda’s head open. Luckily the Korean born star avoided it, but couldn’t get up in time as Kendrick came with a knee to the cheek. Coda then got choked on the ropes until referee Boscoe reached a four count.
CUT TO: VICTORIA SALINAS TALKING HEAD - BACKSTAGE INTERVIEW ROOM.
In the backstage area, dressed in what she arrived in is Victoria who pulls her eyes from the match to comment.
VICTORIA SALINAS: I really, really hate when people do that. Illegally choking you because, let’s just say it, they can’t handle you one on one so they shortcut you.
CUT TO: THE VENUE - THE RING.
(Back to the Action) After three showboated suplex, Kendrick wrapped Coda up for the pin only scoring a two count. Kendrick’s running clothesline hit nobody, as Coda caught him with a gut kick and then went for a running bulldog; Kendrick throws her off – SUPERKICK MIsses and Coda comes in hot with a running neckbreaker. The lungblower made Kendrick seek sanctuary in the corner but Coda came with a belly to back splash and an O’Conner roll put Coda in position to win, but Kendrick launched her into the corner to kick out. Coda stopped herself face planting into the turnbuckle and comes out with a stiff kick to Kendrick’s shoulder, before DDT’ing him into the mat and locks in a submission hold.
CUT TO: CODA TALKING HEAD - BACKSTAGE INTERVIEW ROOM.
Coda, dressed in her ring gear, spoke directly into the camera.
CODA: Kendrick, tonight, was frustrating. He didn’t quit. I believed I had stunned him enough to get him to submit but he overpowered me and escaped.
CUT TO: THE VENUE - THE RING.
(Back to the Action) Kendrick shook off Coda and then snap powerslammed her into the mat. Kross measured her for a suicide dive but it was a fake, as he hit the top rope, landed on his feet and backlipped to taunt the crowd. Boos drowned out some verbally toxic tongued fans but Kross stayed on his opponent. Coda got back in and saw her back struck with clubs. In fact she was only back on her feet because Kendrick scooped her up, impressively, and razor edges her into the corner she avoided impacting earlier. Coda bounced and flopped to the floor where Kendrick measured her for the tramp stamp, leaving Coda out of it. Kendrick Kross scooped up the legs and confidently smirked, knowing he got the three count.
CUT TO: AUBREY WILLIAMS TALKING HEAD - RINGSIDE
Aubrey Williams, dressed fabulously as always, sat and let out a big sigh..
AUBREY WILLIAMS: I don’t really want to talk about what happened next.
CUT TO: THE VENUE - THE RING
In the ring, Kendrick Kross has encouraged Aubrey Williams into the ring so she can announce him.
AUBREY WILLIAMS: Ladies and Gentlemen.
Aubrey is then cut off as Kendrick pulls the microphone down, adding some direction.
AUBREY WILLIAMS: I’ve been asked to do that again. Ladies….Here is your winner, with two wins to his name - Kendrick Kross!
Aubrey pauses as there’s boos followed by some heavier boos from certain guys in the audience who realize what the direction was. Kendrick soaked in the reaction. He then took Aubrey’s phone and appeared to have entered his number in her phone before handing it back, given his call me gesture he made after backflipping with the ropes out of the ring.
CUT TO: KENDRICK KROSS TALKING HEAD - RINGSIDE
A pumped up, excited Kendrick Kross held up his two fingers to the camera, smacked them into his other hand twice and waved them in front of the camera.
KENDRICK KROSS: Two wins in the bag, she’ll definitely be calling the future champion. Doesn’t matter who wins tonight, they got the title for maybe one more show, two tops. Funny how that number keeps coming up.
(Scene End)
SEGMENT: 'A SUCCESSFUL CANDIDATE?’
INT: THE VENUE - SABRINA SMITH’S OFFICE
Inside the office we find Sabrina Smith with another applicant currently interviewing for the role of General Manager. She’s currently sat with one.
SABRINA SMITH: Okay. So I feel like this would be your first step into this business. However, I’m a little concerned this might be a lot to handle for someone who’s last and only job - part-time stylist.
APPLICANT: As I mentioned I have been finding myself. Maybe a lot longer than others but then I took the plunge into this labor market.
SABRINA SMITH: I know, I’m just saying you’re my uncle’s age.
APPLICANT: Well he was the one who casually dropped you were looking for applicants. Here I am.
SABRINA SMITH: Yes but - you’ve only worked as a part-time stylist for two months.
APPLICANT: Yes. Part time because I was not going to be working while Andre was on shift. He’s shifty, his layering is questionable, and if he hadn’t sabotaged me I’d be engaged to Rory right now not him.
SABRINA SMITH: It sounds like you like to keep away from conflict, and we’re looking for someone who’s a little different. Sorry, Tobey.
TOBEY: Okay.
The applicant Tobey stood up, adjusted his shirt and straightened his tie.
TOBEY: I understand I’m not getting the job.
The door opened and ASHER FORRESTER stepped in with the door closing behind him.
TOBEY (CONT’D: And on a completely unrelated topic Franklin will have to pay full price when he buys from my sister at the farmer’s market. Good day, Young Lady.
An annoyed Tobey stormed out of the office as Asher brought Sabrina a little sandwich.
ASHER FORRESTER: So that went well.
SABRINA SMITH: And that was one of the better ones today. I’m starting to think we won’t find a general manager.
Sabrina then took a big bite of her sandwich hoping it would cure the situation, then pulling a face that it didn’t taste good.
ASHER FORRESTER: Yeah. Dane’s gone somewhere so we had to stock up some sandwiches from the gas station. They’re not good.
SABRINA SMITH: (WITH A MOUTHFUL OF SANDWICH) No they are not.
She spat it out into the napkin provided.
SABRINA SMITH: I’ll give him a ring and see where he is..
Just as she unlocks her phone a woman enters the room. Well-dressed for an interview, she captivated the attention of both Asher and Sabrina.
WOMAN: I saw the other guy walk-out, he clearly didn’t work out. Nice to meet you. My name is Carmen Roja Torres, applying for the General Manager role. I assume you have my resume. Am I interviewing with both of you?
Carmen sat herself down and Sabrina dropped her phone on the desk to quickly find it in her emails.
SABRINA SMITH: Um - no just me! Sorry, Asher’s our security at the moment.
Sabrina then gave Asher the look to skedaddle.
ASHER FORRESTER: Yep. Just brought the boss a little sandwich is all. I’ll leave you ladies to it.
Asher quickly made his way out, giving her a sly thumbs up-good luck gesture.
SABRINA SMITH: Oh wow. Okay, there’s a very interesting resume here.
CARMEN ROJA TORRES: I had no doubt. I also understand you’ve had quite a bit of trouble finding a suitable general manager and luckily for you, Sandwich Lad and the rest of the roster I’m here to fill that role and get this company moving in the right direction.
Carmen quickly took a sip from her small bottle of water, holding Sabrina’s attention.
CARMEN ROJA TORRES: With me, I will double the roster you currently have, I’m sure you’d love to get some more talent, fresh match ups.
SABRINA SMITH: That is something we’re definitely looking into.
CARMEN ROJA TORRES: And we’ll need this new champion you’re crowning managed properly if you do hope to allow him or her to compete outside of the company. I believe that’s something you’re keen to implement.
SABRINA SMITH: Actually, yes. Wow… someone’s really done their homework.
Sabrina said unintentionally, smiling as if her prayers had been answered, provoking Carmen to sit back confidently.
CARMEN ROJA TORRES: So shall we get into the resume?
(Scene End)
SEGMENT: 'RISE & SHINE’
INT: THE VENUE - THE HALLWAY
Coming out of the hallway we find Victoria Salinas now dressed for in-ring action and currently on a video call with family back home, until she spots someone.
VICTORIA SALINAS: I’ll call you back… What are you doing?
Victoria walked over and brought in Matt Stone to the shot currently with three standee demos all featuring a grand title. One on the shoulder, one around the waist and one holding it above his head.
VICTORIA SALINAS: A little presumptuous don’t you think?
MATT STONE: You were talking to me? I thought you were addressing this Matt with the title.
Matt said resting a shoulder on the closest Matt.
VICTORIA SALINAS: Hang on. You actually got to do a photoshoot with the Grand Championship?
MATT STONE: Of course. I’m like that with Blake and Smith.
CUT TO: MATT STONE TALKING HEAD - RINGSIDE
Matt is shaking his head.
MATT STONE: We used a title wrapped in green tape then edited in post. But if it ruffles someone’s feathers ahead of the title match sure, that’s what happened.
CUT TO: THE VENUE - THE HALLWAY
Victoria starts to show a little worry on her face, but she takes a second, then stands up to Matt.
VICTORIA SALINAS: You’re going to be very disappointed then when I take home the title.
Before Matt can reply Victoria stepped up to each of the Matt standees.
VICTORIA SALINAS: So are you, and you, and especially you - lifting my title like that, unless you’re my advocate you gotta ask.
Matt looked himself over and then quipped.
MATT STONE: Do I look like I’m an advocate?
VICTORIA SALINAS: Right now you look like a sleazy cell-phone salesman. Matt had trouble letting that one slide, but he looked over at his standees and then smiled.
MATT STONE: Okay. What you need to realize, Vicky Sally, is I’m gonna be winning the Grand Championship. Now you’ve seen these standees, you can start to process that, so it won’t sting so much come later on tonight. Maybe you’ll even be a good sport and raise my hand. Show these people you endorse me as the champ.
VICTORIA SALINAS: Matt - Matt, Matt and Matt - you’re not going to win tonight. It’s not your time - it’s my time. Go back to winning the tag titles in Chicago, the main event is where I shine.
Victoria walked off, and Matt shook his head.
MATT STONE: I’m going to be the champion. Me, ain’t that right me? WHAT?
MATT STONE: Who Harry Pottered Me?
Matt showed his standee had been drawn on, all three with Harry Potter scars.
CUT TO: RAION KIDO TALKING HEAD - BACKSTAGE
Raion is currently balancing a sharpie marker on his index and little finger.
RAION KIDO: Who indeed.
(Scene End)
'MATCH #2' 'TWO IS THE MAGIC NUMBER' NOAH LEIFFSON Vs JESSICA CARTER
INT: THE VENUE - THE RING
Noah and Jessica start the match up with Jessica feeling the height difference immediately. She challenged Noah to a lock-up which he obliged, dangling Jessica by her hands for the crowd to see. After the impressive strength display, Noah let her down and then arm drags her over onto her back. Jess didn’t stay down, rolled out of the arm hold she was in and started hacking at Noah’s leg like she was his step-bro chopping tree trunks. Noah pushed her away but she kept coming, so Noah finally grabbed her leg and dragon whipped Jess onto the mat. Noah was quick to his feet before landing a big man dropkick and sends Jess out the ring.
CUT TO: JESSICA CARTER TALKING HEAD - BACKSTAGE INTERVIEW ROOM.
Jess is dressed to compete and still full of beans.
JESSICA CARTER: That dropkick really got my ribs. Look at the bruise he left?
CUT TO: THE VENUE - THE RING.
(Back to the Action) Jess is rolled back into the ring by Noah where he went on a rampage of suplexes, and left Jess open to his running back elbow. The big guy landed a couple of hip tosses and had Jess in the corner. She got a boot up but as she went up to the second rope, Noah caught her by the throat. A ‘uh-uh’ finger way proceeded Noah’s one armed spinebuster left Jess winded, though she was able to kick out.
Leiffson lost control when he missed the rare leg drop, allowing Jess to get up and hit her dropkick. Jess pinned, with Noah throwing her off him at a count of 1. She hit one loud superkick to him as he was sitting up, this time she got a two count but Noah still kicked out - again powering out. Jess decided to try backstabber the Minnesota Monster - only for Noah to be a little too much to pull back. He slung Jess over his shoulder and she landed on her feet. Dropkick stuns Noah and Jess stunned again with the stunned silence ddt with all the kiss included. Jess thought it was over but Noah managed to kick out and Jess tried to choke out the big man. Noah started to fade initially but his big limbs were able to grab a rope nearby, leaving Jess a little frustrated.
CUT TO: NOAH LEIFFSON TALKING HEAD - BACKSTAGE INTERVIEW ROOM.
Likewise, Noah is still in his ring gear absolutely shocked
NOAH LEIFFSON: That’s something I’d expect to happen to Leo, not me. She really came at me with everything this match, huh?
CUT TO: THE VENUE - THE RING.
(Back to the Action) Carter measured Noah for the end, headlock in tight and called it out to the crowd. Rather than slamming Noah head first, Jess was shoved into the ropes - still the Carter lass rebounded and went for Ass Kisser! Scouted into an electric chair drop from an incredible height. Jess gets dragged back on up and Noah fed into the fans call to see how far he could throw her. From the corner he hurled Jess over onto her back, nearly getting the entire hypotenuse of the ring. Jess got back up in the corner and ate a back elbow! Then Noah was going to go for Bonne Nuit? Jess slips out, slides out the ring and catches Noah with one good right hook. Jess then felt springboard time and slingshots herself back into the ring for a hurricanrana! NO! Finale Bomb!
Jessica hit the mat with the jackknife bomb and Noah covered, getting a full, clean three count from it.
CUT TO: JESSICA CARTER TALKING HEAD - BACKSTAGE INTERVIEW ROOM.
JESSICA CARTER: It didn’t happen for me tonight - but I just need two more.
CUT TO: NOAH LEIFFSON TALKING HEAD - BACKSTAGE INTERVIEW ROOM.
NOAH LEIFFSON: I’m on the scoreboard, Guys!

SEGMENT: 'A SUCCESSFUL CANDIDATE?’
INT: THE VENUE - THE HALLWAY
In the hallway we find Dean Smith with Aubrey Williams, chilling out as Aubrey sort of recaps what happened.
AUBREY WILLIAMS: Like right in my phone. As if I’d call him, just snatched it out of my hand as well.
DEAN SMITH: Think he forgot you’re a retired in-ring competitor. I’m sure if that happened again, you’d be able to show him a neckbreaker or something.
AUBREY WILLIAMS: Yeah. I mean I don’t want to get fired for hitting someone. How awkward would that be?
DEAN SMITH: Pretty awkward. You got one more match tonight, right?
AUBREY WILLIAMS: Yeah. Main event. No idea who’s gonna win it tho-
Out of the office steps Sabrina Smith along with Carmen Roja Torres, continuing their conversation. Sabrina then stepped back in the office.
SABRINA SMITH: I think you can expect some good news! We’ll definitely be in touch!
Sabrina says bidding farewell, closing the office door - not being able to see Dean and Aubrey. Carmen turned and did spot the pair, with an OMG look on her face.
CARMEN ROJA TORRES: Dean! Wow it’s been a while, hasn’t it? Sorry I better get this.
Carmen said as her phone was ringing, on silent due to the interview. She quickly answered, while mouthing see ya.
CARMEN ROJA TORRES: Hi. Yes, I think it went better than I expected, and I you know already how I was expecting it to go. I crushed it.
AUBREY WILLIAMS: And how do you know her?
Aubrey asked, confronting Dean and ignoring the production staff trying to get her attention.
(Scene End)
SEGMENT: 'EGGCELLENT’
INT: THE VENUE - CATERING AREA
Dane is currently in catering, finishing the prep meal Matt Stone had requested and asked his taste tester to try it. That being Mimi Smith who had just finished the pan pizza she’d requested.
MIMI SMITH: So this is what Matt wants for his victory sandwich. Do you have Raion’s, Scotty’s and Victoria’s just in case?
DANE MITCHELL: Of course. After I got Coda’s and Jessica’s I had everything for them three two. Matt just suddenly changed his so I didn’t get a chance to practice it. Would you mind?
MIMI SMITH: But of course.
Mimi tucked her napkin down her shirt just in case she got anything on her Derrick La’Bell shirt, and tucked in for a bite.
MIMI SMITH: I think it’s fantastic, don’t tell Matt I said that. But really well prepared.
DANE MITCHELL: Great! It’s not too seasoned?
But Mimi shook her head.
MIMI SMITH: Perfectly seasoned. I’m gonna finish this.
DANE MITCHELL: Thank you, Memes. We’ll see who’s meal I’m preparing then - the match is up next. I got Clem’s green chili burger ready and waiting when she gets back from the bathroom.
At which point Raion Kido walks through heading towards the crew wanting him for the entrances.
MIMI SMITH: Good luck, Raion!
DANE MITCHELL: Yeah, Good luck!
Kido looked over at them as he waved thank you, but turned his attention back to the challenge that lied ahead.
(Scene End)
'MATCH #3' 'AT LONG LAST THE CHAMP IS HERE' RAION KIDO Vs VICTORIA SALINAS Vs MATT STONE Vs MATT STONE
INT: THE VENUE - THE RING
After some stunning, title worthy entrances the ring bell rang and each competitor began to dart their eyes across all three opponents. Matt Stone started off booting Raion into the corner and laid in with back elbows so he could keep one eye on the others. Scotty took Victoria down with a snapmare and pinned her shoulders to the mat.
Salinas quickly kicked out but Stone came in with a forearm immediately after. Scotty got shoved into the corner and tried to repeatedly drive his shoulder into Scotty but he got a knee up. Salinas still used Stone as a stepping stone for a corner dropkick that slumped Scotty in the corner.
Raion then performed a sunset flip, hit the ropes with his legs, ricocheted and dragged Salinas up for a reverse powerbomb facebuster. Raion then gets smacked across the face by Stone who suplexed Kido into a quick pin, and only got a one.
CUT TO: MATT TALKING HEAD - BACKSTAGE INTERVIEW ROOM.
The Josh Gad lookalike and his red headed girlfriend fan are both sitting backstage with the girl holding up her defaced bag.
MATT STONE: It’s all about getting the quick win. That’s it. Wherever it is, you get it. There’s too much at stake tonight.
CUT TO: THE VENUE - THE RING.
(Back to the Action) Stone suplexed everybody in the ring twice, and had each opponent in different corners. What followed was three running boots to the face; with Stone pinning Latimer who took the last one. Scotty is able to kick out of it and boots Stone away. Scotty kipped up and took Stone out the ring via a cactus clothesline before sending him over the guard rail to the fans.
Back in the ring, Latimer took Kido and Salinas down with a double clothesline before he tried to put Salinas away with a sleeper. A sitout jawbreaker allowed Salinas to escape. Latimer staggered into Raion Kido’s snap german suplex and then got suplexed into an awaiting Salinas, who attempted a cloverleaf. Kido saw what was happening and went for a clothesline, Salinas ducked, and COBRA CLUTCH TO Kido!
CUT TO: VICTORIA TALKING HEAD - BACKSTAGE INTERVIEW ROOM.
VICTORIA SALINAS: It’s pinfall or submission. I’m not focusing on one or the other. I’m just trying to get that strap around my waist.
CUT TO: THE VENUE - THE RING.
(Back to the Action) Salinas got Kido to sit but then felt her legs hoisted up. She kept the hold on but Scotty’s wheelbarrow suplex forced her to break the hold, though Kido was briefly dragged. This played into Scotty’s hands as he performed the exact same move to Kido, though Raion landed closer to the edge of the ring. Salinas took a jumping elbow drop that forced her back to her feet, only to catch the incoming superkick and tried to set-up the neckbreaker! NOPE Latimer shoved her off and Kido pulled the ropes down – only for Latimer to cactus clothesline him and the pair splash on Salinas on the outside…Then Matt Stone leaped off the guard rail for a double foot stomp!
CUT TO: JESSICA CARTER TALKING HEAD - BACKSTAGE INTERVIEW ROOM.
JESSICA CARTER: That was a lot of impact in two seconds. Fall, splash, crunch.
CUT TO: THE VENUE - THE RING.
(Back to the Action) Matt brought Latimer back into the ring and through him shoulder first into the ring post. Some trash talk happen to follow before he would land a few arm drags to show his excellence in the ring. Latimer got caught by a sitout armbreaker but it’s RAION KIDO with ATOMIC THUNDER. Matt Stone gets turned inside out but Scotty Latimer’s stiff kick to the back breaks up the pin. Latimer then hit his own clothesline but caught Raion with his hurt arm, delaying a follow up. Salinas returned to the ring with a SPRINGBOARD DROPKICK to both men. She immediately turned her attention back to Matt Stone; BIG SPRINGBOARD BUSAIKU KNEE! That should be it and she hooked the leg for one, for two BUT Stone spoils it with a kick out.
Stone almost gets locked into a triangle when Scotty landed that blocked superkick earlier. He then tries to apply the triangle hold to Stone when Kido’s sliding clotheslines has Latimer seeing stars before Kido goes for the armbar. Salinas comes by with a running sliding dropkick to break up the hold and then successfully gets a triangle on Stone. He has no one to help him so he brute forces his way out with a semi-powerbomb which doesn’t do enough, before a desperate one successfully breaks himself free.
CUT TO: KENDRICK KROSS TALKING HEAD - BACKSTAGE INTERVIEW ROOM.
KENDRICK KROSS: I’d have been out of that in one. Just another reason why I’m better than Matt Stone. Man I should’ve been in this match instead..
CUT TO: THE VENUE - THE RING.
(Back to the Action) A sidewalk slam by Stone keeps Salinas down while Scotty simultaneously landed his own. Stone made a comment about Latimer copying him and ducked the incoming haymaker. Stone fired back with three chops and an uppercut of the European persuasion had Latimer in the corner. 9 punches followed into Scotty’s temple before Salinas popped the crowd with an electric chair drop to Stone. Raion Kido then matched the pop with a triangle springboard hurricanrana to Latimer, making him swanton bomb on Salinas. All four stars down allowed the crowd to get in a Ten-A-Ci-Ty chant.
First to their feet was Kido who measured Matt Stone, landing the Heart Punch. Before he could get a pin he spied Latimer getting up and took him down with a massive uranage. Salinas was now pulling herself up and she booted Raion away. As she went for the springboard move, she’s met with jumping side slam. Kido quickly pulled himself over to pin Salinas but she’s able to kick out on two.
CUT TO: RAION KIDO TALKING HEAD - BACKSTAGE INTERVIEW ROOM.
RAION KIDO: This was tough, I thought I’d got the win over Victoria.
CUT TO: THE VENUE - THE RING.
(Back to the Action) Scotty Latimer retrieved a weapon from under the ring. The misplaced baking tray which he immediately threw at Kido. He picked it up and drove the edge into Kido’s back and then drove the edge into Matt Stone’s abdomen. He tossed it at Victoria but she caught it, only for a superkick to actually make it hit her. Latimer then tried to pin her, only scoring a two. Matt Stone got covered and he was a two count. Rather than pinning Kido, Latimer added a gutbuster into a blue thunder bomb and it’s both Matt and Vicky who break it up.
Salinas and Matt actually worked together by performing a suplex to Latimer on the pan, before Matt and Salinas exchanged chops. Salinas got hit by an uppercut and rebounded into a back body drop – landed on her feet and standing roundhouse kick makes Stone fall to the mat like a cut down redwood. Salinas goes to pin but gets yanked back by Kido – Missed his Atomic Thunder – Salinas goes for cobra clutch – COUNTERED into uranage – Salinas rolled onto her feet. Quick Knee lift and she set up the spinning DDT – NO THROWN INTO THE CORNER. Kido caught her with a sling blade as she staggered out – straight into his LIGHTNING BOLT!
Before he can get the pin, Stone! Matt Stone threw Kido in the ring post! Stone goes for pin but he’s yanked back by Latimer for Rogue Lariat on Stone – ONE – TWO – SALINAS WITH THE CLUTCH SAVE!
CUT TO: RAION KIDO TALKING HEAD - BACKSTAGE INTERVIEW ROOM.
SCOTTY LATIMER: I thought she was down and out. I. THOUGHT. She was down…and out
Scotty clenched his fist.
CUT TO: THE VENUE - THE RING.
(Back to the Action) Latimer angrily DDT’d Salinas on the weapon but then had to turn his attention to Kido. Several haymakers put the japanese star on the ropes and Latimer booted him over the top rope. Kido landed on his feet so Scotty had to go for a suicide dive which resulted in a huddle where both stars were throwing punches. Kido rams Latimer into the ring apron, but Salinas with an outside dive took out Kido. Salinas quickly got herself back in and went after Matt, landing another busaiku knee but Stone rolled out the ring from the momentum. Salinas couldn’t believe it. As she leaned out to try and bring Matt back inside she’s hit across the top of the head by a kendo stick from Latimer. Stone didn’t get away without Latimer breaking the kendo stick across his back.
After retrieving a replacement one, he savored the idea of hitting Raion. Kido saw the armed man and started backing up, before running around the ring and sliding in. Latimer got in but Raion stood on the stick and hit Scotty with two punches to disarm him. Kido now took the stick and went for a strike only to find the stick had been snatched out of his hands. Latimer superkicked Raion into an awaiting Salinas who struck with a shot to the ribs, and then faked a shot to Latimer, who raised his arms and allowed Salinas to strike the ribs as well. Salinas alternated between Scotty and Raion with the kendo stick until it had snapped, but she still used the broken two halves on them.
CUT TO: AUBREY WILLIAMS TALKING HEAD - RINGSIDE
AUBREY WILLIAMS: I feel bad for Scotty and Raion. Do you hear that? Those snaps.
She visibly winced at the next shot.
CUT TO: THE VENUE - THE RING.
(Back to the Action) After she discarded the two pieces, she got Latimer up and connected with Vanity Breaker. Outside the ring, Matt Stone waited and entered as she hit the move, C-c-c-c-combo Breaker! NO! Salinas avoids it, turns around and sees Raion coming with the big lariat. Victoria ducks it and Raion connects with it to Matt, sending him over the top rope. Vanity Breaker by Salinas! And pins Raion. One…Two…and Victoria wins the match with a decisive three counted!
CUT TO: RINGSIDE
AUBREY WILLIAMS: Ladies and Gentlemen, the winner of this match and the inaugural Tenacity Wrestling Grand Champion….Victoria!
