WrestleStock 2018 - Day Four: World Championship

[Lord Hastings]

The show opens with Grey Coppi standing just outside the Hall of Fame ceremony on the festival grounds at the New Orleans City Park.

Coppi: Hello, and welcome to the final day of WrestleStock! It has been an unforgettable three days already here in New Orleans, starting with Chamber of Fun and the crowning of a new Chaos Champion on Day One, continuing with mayhem of Day Two and the crowning of a new Carnage Wrestling Baltimore City Champion, and who will ever forget the surprising Spin the Wheel Match between Alan Wallace and Eden Morgan yesterday, or the shocking events that ended the Cross-Hemisphere Title match.

Coppi: It has all lead to today. The festival is winding down, not much going on around the festival grounds today aside from a few shops and stands that are still open, but that's because everyone's full attention is right behind me, where in a few minutes the 2018 Hall of Fame Ceremony will begin, and we will find out who is going to join the likes of Dirge, Alex Kiseragi, and Moss Edwards in the UGWC Hall of Fame.

Coppi: After that, everyone will head to the feature ring, and we start the day's action with the finals of the WrestleStock Open Tournament. Angelica Vaughn, Kenzi Grey, and Sarah Lacklan all looked impressive in the first three days of the festival, but only one can win the WrestleStock Cup, and there is a championship opportunity awaiting the winner of this surprising All Cool Kid Final.

Coppi: Then it is time for the moment that everyone has been waiting for all week, as Lucy Wylde defends the World Championship against the Massive Melee winner, Kem Dynamo. If this week has shown us anything, it is that nothing is certain, and I am excited for this match, as I'm sure you are too.

Coppi: I'm told they are ready inside, so let's go now to the Hall of Fame, with our first inductee about to be announced!

[Lord Hastings]

“Gone Sovereign” by Stone Sour plays as Jet Somers enters the stage.

Jet: Are you still with us, Wrestlestock?

The noise of the crowd roars over the park as they confirm that they’re indeed still very much engaged.

Jet: It has been an exciting weekend so far, and I’m proud to be a part of it. I’m about to make some of our international fans lose their minds, though, so get ready.

As if they know what’s coming, certain sections of the crowd suddenly get that much louder.

Jet: There aren’t many still around from the GIW days. Most have gone on to retire, or seek their glory elsewhere. As you probably know, GIW is the company that introduced me to the industry, and a lot of the early lessons I learned came from that time and that first roster. I came in pretty bitter and didn’t much care for wrestling, and I was pretty vocal about it.

Some fans groan, others openly boo.

Jet: I only saw professional wrestling as an unclean martial sport, and not even a real sport in the sense of the word that I knew it when I was an MMA fighter. Needless to say, my attitude didn’t get me very far at all. There was someone there at the time who you might say was my polar opposite when it came to our disposition. This guy was very young and very ambitious, and he had a pure love for the competition there that was truly unmatched. Often an underdog due to his size and age, Jordan King--

The crowd explodes when Jet drops the name. He smiles and takes a drink of water, waiting for the applause to die down.

Jet: Jordan King was one of the most optimistic fighters I’d ever meet. He was truly in a golden era of his career, in which losses were simply a lesson, a necessary part of coming up in the business, and victories were a time to be humble and thankful for the opportunities he’d been given. Becoming the GIW.com Champion, and the youngest company champion of all time, then going on to hold that belt for six months didn’t create a cocky personality, and there wasn’t a day during that reign that JK didn’t make it count.

Jet’s face changes, his eyes downcast as he goes into the next part of his speech.

Jet: All that glitters isn’t necessarily gold. Jordan became the target of a lot of scrutiny after the death of his grandfather, and this caused a change in the bright young star. Remembering how much Jordan and his crew of rebels had accepted me, I tried to come to his aid, but things took a turn for the worse. Jordan ultimately got through that dark time in his life, but his career took a questionable turn, and it was there that Jordan and I probably had our most rocky time in our long friendship. To this day, I feel responsible for his having to leave the sport he had once viewed with starry eyes, the sport he helped me to acclimate to.

The crowd is very quiet at this point.

Jet: I don’t want to dampen Jordan’s big day by going into too much detail, but I definitely owe him the biggest apology. I’m sorry, Jordan.

The crowd gives a rousing cheer.

Jet: Ever the optimistic professional, even when Jordan was forced to retire, he did what he could to continue contributing, and took on some schooling and training to become our Head Trainer. Now, you’ll find Jordan looking out for all our well-being, and I know he’s got his hands full this weekend.

Laughter from the crowd as the camera picks out the faces of some of the most brutally affected EPs featured this weekend.

Jet: Jordan’s mark on this company is felt whenever you see a new name get up from a beatdown, and whenever you see a young fighter grab the gold for the first time. He broke a lot of barriers that one could argue led to the successful launch of Chill. He deserves today’s accolade as much as any multiple time World Champion, so please, show your thanks and love for the Aussie Superstar, the guy who taught me everything I know about rugby, please welcome The Cyclone, JK!!

*"What A Great Night" by the Hilltop Hoods hits to a voracious reaction from the UGWC fans as JK makes his way out onto the stage. He walks up to Jet and shakes their hand. Jet offers him some words of congratulations. He thanks them as the two hug on stage. JK looks out to all the fans in the venue, gives them a huge grin and a wave of acknowledgement causing the reaction to get even louder. He walks up towards the podium as the music starts to fade down. The fans, however, remain loud as ever. Chants ranging from "JK! JK! JK! JK!" to "Thank you Jordan! *clap clap*" are breaking out everywhere. He smiles, chuckling to himself slightly. He leans in to the mic*

JK: You lot seem pretty keen, hey?

*Pop from the fans*

JK: It means a lot to be here today. I was around for the first ever Wrestlestock and remember quite a few people saying something like this was way too ambitious for a wrestling organisation to pull off, even for one as big as the UGWC. Three days of wrestling and sideshows, music and the lot. Now we are here, Wrestlestock has grown an absolute shittonne! Back in 2011 we started a revolution in the industry. Its then grown from a three-day event to a four-day extravaganza. We’ve seen other companies join in on the fun, with the Baltimore City Championship from Carnage Wrestling being defended just yesterday. And, of course, the thing we are all here for today, the Hall of Fame was added to this prestigious event four years ago.

*He takes a deep sigh in, the feeling of being inducted finally starting to set in*

JK: You know, I actually never thought I would see this day come. Standing up here, speaking to you all about my career in this industry that we all love, knowing that soon enough my name is going to be recorded alongside the likes of Alan Fernandez, Declan Prescott, Alex Kiseragi, Moss Edwards... It almost feels quite surreal to think about in all honesty. Then I sort of start to really think about what I got to accomplish and how not many will ever get to top that. I came to the GIW at the time as this headstrong 15-year-old kid, thinking that the world owed me everything. My first match, I was put up against one Randy Boolzian...

*Another huge pop at the mention of BoolZ*

JK: And some bloke by the name of Sean Cyanide. Let me tell you, folks, I got my ass handed to me. That match was the first thing that started getting me on the right path, I learned that the only thing that would be worth anything to me was to work hard and not expect a damn thing. That's actually something I still believe in very deeply, and something I try to instil in the crop of young guns we get coming through our development system. It doesn't matter what you did in whatever federation you were in before the UGWC, this right here is the big time. I can honestly say that the group of people that work in that very ring are some of the most talented individuals I have ever seen and the only ones that will get anywhere here are the ones that understand that talent can only get you so far, hard work and dedication is what it takes to get to the next level.

*Camera pan out to the superstars sitting in the front watching the speech*

JK: There are a few names I can think of still in the game that follow this. Jet Somers, Donovan Hastings, hell, as much as I really don’t like the guy even Alan Wallace. These are all talented men, but its due to their dedication and hard work that they have reached the level of success that they have. I guarantee you that they will all be up here one day, giving their induction speech.

*He shuffles his notes around a little*

JK: I went from some young upstart to being a household name in a few short years, and to be honest I'm still not quite sure how that happened. I never really thought of myself as anything much. I was an alright fighter, but that was about it. I've since gone on to win championships, represented the UGWC in multi-fed events as well as represented my home nation of Australia in international events and got to see far reaches of the globe that I would have never had the ability to see before. It's pretty damned surreal to put it bluntly, and I really doubt that it will ever stop being surreal when looking back on it.

JK: There's not a hell of a lot about my career that I can say I actively regret. One thing I can say that I wish I could have done was to fight Travis Roberts one-on-one. Growing up in rural Queensland, we didn't really get a hell of a lot of wrestling on TV. Just this little show running out of Stamford, Connecticut and TWiSTeD Fight Club. I never missed an episode of TFC and Travis was my favourite. When I first signed up for GIW it was with the ultimate goal of one day facing him for the world title. I did eventually get a world championship opportunity, unfortunately just not against Travis. It is kinda funny though as we have spoken a couple of times about this. I'm glad to have his respect, and who knows, maybe one day if the stars align we might have that match. Of course, though, Travis has his own thing going on at the moment. Officially I cannot say anything, but personally as a fan I wish him the best and hope to see him in the ring again sometime soon. That being said, there are some people in this industry that I wish to thank for getting me here.

*He starts to smile*

JK: I want to give Declan Prescott as the original owner of GIW thanks for giving me the opportunity to prove myself initially, as well as the consortium of the UGWC for letting me ply my craft in the company further. I can honestly say that the last decade or so has been the best time of my life, and there is very little that I would change over that time. I also want to thank a good friend and mentor of mine in Moss Edwards. He saw the potential I had very early on when not many others did. Even though we came through at the same time he kept me grounded back when I was this cocky little upstart, I wouldn't be here today without him. I also want to thank Jet Somers for that same reason, he saw me through an extremely troubling time in my life and, I think, in many ways he probably saved it too simply by being that voice of reason I so sorely needed. My beautiful wife Jasmine who has stuck by me through my best and my worst, I cannot imagine life without her. She is the real legend in all of this, she helped me when I was at my absolute lowest following the death of my grandfather, we’ve raised two beautiful children, my gorgeous daughter Nikki and my baby boy John. They all gave me the strength to do what I’ve been doing for all these years. Most of all though, I want to thank each and every one of you.

*The fans cheer*

JK: Every single one of you guys is the reason I got to where I am today. By attending the live shows, by purchasing the network, by buying the merch for your favourite wrestler or simply by interacting with us on social media such as Reddit, Twitter and even Facebook. You guys are the reason we even commit to this game and I cannot thank you all enough. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

*More applause from the fans and wrestlers alike*

JK: If there's one thing I can leave you all on tonight, it is simply this. Do not let anyone ever tell you what you can and cannot do! If you want something bad enough, and you're willing to work hard towards it, then chase that dream as if it's the last thing you will ever do. If I had listened to the people who said I would never make it in America, I dont know where I would be, but I certainly wouldn't be here. Thank you!

*What a Great Night hits once more as the fans start chanting “THANK YOU JORDAN!* one last time. JK starts to tear up but gives the fans one final wave. Jasmine comes up onto the stage, holding his three-year-old son John as Nikki comes running up to her dad, leaping at him with a huge hug. Jordan kisses Jas and embraces his family. They all leave the stage together.*

[Lord Hastings]

Almost Heaven, West Virginia
Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River
Life is old there, older than the trees
Younger than the mountains, blowing like a breeze

A video cast in black and white filters shows scenes of a younger Chaos, pre-beard, training in a ring, doing back bumps and running the ropes. Scenes of his first few matches evolve as he grows older.

Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia
Mountain mamma, take me home
Country roads

Footage turns to scenes of Chaos riding his custom built bike down the winding highways and back roads, a countless army of black leather cuts lined behind him, as The Devil's Most Wanted MC rides with him.

All my memories, gather round her
Modest lady, stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky
Misty taste of moonshine, teardrop in my eye

Scenes of Cypress Morgan and Chaos clearing out various bars and pubs captured on security cameras blend with a mix of in-ring antics and matches the two have been involved in over the course of their careers. One scene where Chaos grabs an opponent by his legs and swings him, the camera widening to see Cypress doing the same and letting their opponents collide head first.

Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia
Mountain mamma, take me home
Country roads

Home videos of The Devil's Most Wanted celebrating various championship victories, backyard bbqs, bike fest, to making their way through the crowd and partying with the fans.

I hear her voice in the morning hour she calls me
Radio reminds me of my home far away
Driving down the road I get a feeling
That I should have been home yesterday, yesterday

Video turns to footage of Chaos choking an opponent out with a 25-inch purple jelly dong, his knee on the back of their head to secure a victory during his Chaos Championship reign. Another scene of him finishing off a can of beer, before holding the can to his opponents forehead and crushing it with a headbutt.

Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia
Mountain mamma, take me home
Country roads

More footage of Chaos riding the roads on his bike, some alone, and some with an army of black on his heels. Various clips and outtakes of him and Cypress's antics that result in many fires being set… paramedics being called… police having to make an appearance… or Chaos walking down the hall, stark naked. Various scenes of Chaos getting people to try a sip from his home made jug of moonshine, and their various and hilarious reactions.

Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia
Mountain mamma, take me home
Country roads

The scenes fade to black and white once more... Chaos and Cypress Morgan standing on a dock watching out over a lake, Cypress clasping his hand on Chaos's shoulder before fading away and out of the picture. Chaos left standing on the dock, alone.

Take me home, down country roads
Take me home, down country roads...

The video slowly fades to black with the sounds of an arena full of fans as they applaud and chant “Thank You Chaos... Thank You Chaos... Thank You Chaos”

As the video comes to a close we look to an empty stage, an award sitting on the podium. The lights begin to dim, as Black Label Society's “World of Trouble” begins.

From the back, Cypress Morgan slowly makes his way out to the adoration of the masses, who explode into fits of cheers as he enters the scene. His long hair is pulled up into a neat and tight top notch, his attire for the night consisting of a black suit and matching vest, sans jacket, with the sleeves of his blood-red button up shirt rolled up to canvas his large tatted arms. A pair of black cotton mouth snake skin boots bring the ensemble together as he slowly struts across the stage, a cigar protruding from his vest pocket. Cypress pauses before leaning into the mic at the ready of the podium, taking a moment to look around.

Cypress: God damn I still look good, and I'm glad you got to see me…

The crowd pops...

Cypress: So how many of you fuckers came her to see some wrestling?

Some general cheer from the fans...

Cypress: How many of you beautiful god damned people rolled out of bed this morning to see Chaos, and party with the DMW one last time?

The crowd goes ape shit and loses their combined minds, Cypress smirking as he nods to the reaction.

Cypress: Fucking Aye... the Hall of Fame... the select, the elite... the best of the best. I couldn't tell you what an honor it was when I received my place among my fellow alumni. Granted, it got a whole lot cooler when I showed up, but you already knew that. The Hall of Fame is Wrestling's Valhalla... the home of gods, the immortals, the pioneers of our sport, and there was no bigger honor for me to come here and call up my brother to be counted amongst us. Then I showed up and saw Ezekiel Pax, and 'The Drop Bear' JK ', and to me it looks like Wrestling Valhalla set up some Section 8 housing.

The crowd laughs.

Cypress: Once a wise man told me “Family doesn't end in blood”, but it doesn't start there either. Family cares about you... And not what you can do for them. Family... REAL family… is there for the good, the bad, and all of the in between. They've got your back... even when it hurts. That's family, and if I leave this world tomorrow, I'd leave knowing I had at least one brother who, above all else, was there for me when I had nothing else. Hell, all these years he bitched at me telling me that I was the one holding us together and carrying him on my back... but truth be told, I'd be nothing without him, and I doubt that I'd have even made it this far. I can't even fathom how to pay back the years of friendship and loyalty that he's shown me... so when I get a call asking if I can roll my ass out of bed and come down here to make an appearance, you're god damned right I can.

The crowd ignites into a panic of cheers.

Cypress: So without any further fucking due... He's my brother... he's my closest friend… And not only does he deserve this award.., but he deserves this award more than I ever did. He has been the one constant in this roller coaster of a life; the one person that has never left my side; the one person who always had my back, and not once did I ever have to look behind me to see what his intentions were. Ladies and Gentlemen... Put your fucking hands together for the one and only... The motherfuckin' Drunken Buzzsaw… Chaos!!!

The man born Chad Anthony steps out from behind the curtain, an uncustomary smile plastered on his face. Chaos' suit matches that of Cypress, though the shirt that he wears under the black vest is a deep blue, and his beard has been tamed with a slight trim. The President and Vice President of the Devils Most Wanted meet face to face, before both men give the other a huge hug. Cypress is shown saying something into the ear of his best friend, but the audio of the cameras cannot pick it up. The two soon release their grasp on each other, Cypress slapping Chaos on the back, as he makes his way back through the curtain. Chaos turns and looks out at the sea of people before him, tapping his fingers on the podium in front of him, as many in the crowd begin chanting 'YOU DESERVE IT' towards him. He dismissively waves them off, leaning down towards the microphone.

Chaos: While I appreciate the sentiment, cut that shit out right now.

His response elicits a laugh from many in attendance, as the people begin to quiet down. Chaos begins to shake his head.

Chaos: Much better… all that fuckin' racket, I can barely hear myself think. And yeah, Bitch Fantastic, I actually can think when I want to. Learn something new every day, right?"

The cameras focus on Jezebel Saint out in the crowd, who is seated next to Xandy. Jez laughs, along with most of the other people in attendance, and then shouts out that she doesn't believe it.

Chaos: Yeah, yeah… neither does Xandy, I guess.

More laughter, as Chaos reaches into his vest pocket and pulls out folded up papers. He unfolds them, lifting them high in the air for all to see. They're blank.

Chaos: See how prepared I came? My acceptance speech, ladies and gents. Because that's how I roll.

He flings the papers high into the air, the light breeze taking many of the sheets out into the crowd, as they lazily flutter towards the ground.

Chaos: In all seriousness, I've been doing this shit twenty years. I likely won't remember much unless I'm in the moment anyway, so I figured it was pointless to even try to prepare. Likely means I'm gonna go over, too, so eat a dick, Ooley. I'm taking all the time I want.

The camera pans down to Robert Ooley, an angered look on his face as he points Louis towards Chaos and yells for 'Serenity to keep it fucking simple short'. He receives a middle finger in response.

Chaos: Love you, too, Ole' Bob. But as I was saying… man, twenty years. Twenty years I've been in this business, making my debut for a place called Global Championship Wrestling when I was little more than a schmuck nineteen-year-old kid with a horrible fuckin' haircut.

The screen behind him morphs to a picture of Chaos during his early years, giving everyone the opportunity to see what a long, blonde-haired Chad Anthony looked like. Chaos turns and looks, shuddering as he turns back towards the microphone.

Chaos: Thank Christ that fuckin' fad never lasted, eh?

Laughter, followed by dozens of motorcycles revving their engines.

Chaos: Ya know, when I first broke into this business, I had no idea what the fuck I was doing. I just knew that it allowed me the opportunity to get paid for kicking people's asses. Sounded like a good deal to me, considering I had nothing else going on at the time. The last thing I ever expected though, was to wind up finding a family out of the whole deal. But that's exactly what happened.

Chaos motions out to the DMW club members and their families, causing another round of engine revving. It brings a smile to his face.

Chaos: Being in the business as long as I have, you're gonna find people that you share common interests with; you're gonna find people that you gravitate towards, and ultimately form a bond with. It happened in GCW with guys like Ryp Fandango. Buck Unreal. 'Fortune 500' Aaron McFleese. And most importantly, a guy that went by the name of Snowman.

With each name spoken, a still photo of them in the ring during their careers is show on the Global-Tron. Each time, the picture receives moderate applause, even though most of today's fans know little of the wrestlers during that era. Chaos himself politely applauds each as well, turning back towards the podium once the screen goes black.

Chaos: That last one played the most pivotal role for me, not only as the wrestler I would become, but also the person that I would become. You see, it was thanks to Snowman that I began to view this industry for something more than just a quick payday. It was thanks to him that I began to actually train to become a better wrestler, as I started to view this industry as a possible career choice. And last, but certainly not least, it was thanks to him that I met that bad-ass motherfucker that was just out here lying to all of you motherfuckers, as he said nice things about me.

The crowd burst out into laughter, as a picture of Cypress Morgan appears on the Global-Tron, which causes the place to go nuts, yet again.

Chaos: You damn right, because he fuckin' deserves it. For being one of the best in this business, but even more so for taking a dumb fuckin' hick named Chad Anthony under his wing when I needed it… for welcoming me into his home when I had no place else to go… for making me a part of his family, when outside of Lucky, I really had no family of my own.

Chaos grows quiet for a moment, as he stares down at the podium in front of him. Audibly exhaling, he soon lifts his head back out, looking back out into the crowd.

Chaos: It was because of Cypress Fucking Morgan that Luck and I got to meet some of the best people that I've ever known in life. Jez… Jet… Klaus… Hound… A-Dogg… Eden…

Much of the crowd boos, causing Chaos to begin to grin.

Chaos: Yeah, she's a real pain in the ass sometimes, but she's like a sister to me, so can the bullshit.

A loud 'Thank You' is heard from a voice in the crowd, as the camera pans around, ultimately winding up focused on Eden Morgan, a bored expression on her face.

Chaos: It also allowed me the privilege of calling one of the finest, most upstanding motherfuckers I've ever have the honor to know, a brother… and he was probably the best of all of us in terms of being a good fuckin' person… Ryan.

A picture of Ryan Hanneman appears on the Global-Tron, a huge ovation going up from the crowd. Chaos stares at the picture for many moments, before saluting him back tapping his chest with his fist. He then turns back towards the podium.

Chaos: This shit tonight might be about me, but it shouldn't be. Because this induction, while I am truly honored, I don't feel is warranted. Because it isn't anything that I did… and isn't anything that I've been. It's because of you motherfuckers, every single one of you that I have called a brother over the years, that I kept going. You gave me a reason to want to keep doing this gig… to want to live my life… and that's the only fuckin' reason I'm standing before you guys today.

Chaos reaches down and begins fidgeting with something unseen. After a few moments, he stands back up, a Chadweiser in hand. He pops the cap off, taking a moment to lift his bottle towards his DMW brethren, and then takes a drink. Placing the bottle down on the podium, he looks back out at the crowd.

Chaos: And now my current chapter in life… no fuckin' different than before, I just can't get in the ring anymore to kick someone's ass. Don't get me wrong, I could still hang a foot in just about everyone's ass here…

Laughter from many entertainment professionals, as the camera pans around and shows people like Zane Scott, Travis Pierce, Magdalena Lockheart, and Gabriel Baal, just to name a few.

Chaos: … it's just that it's a liability issue now. Bum neck and all.

Boos from the fans in attendance, causing Chaos to begin to laugh.

Chaos: No reason to boo, because I'm in a great spot right now. I'm still involved in wrestling, #Chill motherfuckers, and I still have my brothers in the club. Most importantly, I still have Xandy and Hay-Hay. And that? That's the greatest gift a guy like me could ever ask for.

Polite applause, the camera trained on Xandy as she wipes a tear from the corner of her eye.

Chaos: In all honesty though, thank you guys. To think I would ever have my name mentioned in the same breath as guys like Raenius, Jez, Dirge, Moss Edwards, and Cyp… never in a millions years would I have believed it. I was just a dumb kid from West Virginia, with no schooling, no direction, and nothing in life that pointed to the possibility of ever being a success in anything I'd do. It's thanks to my brothers, it's thanks to companies like GCW and UGWC, it's thanks to people like Pax who never gave a fuckin' inch and made me earn every last win I got, and it's thanks to all you fans out there that for one reason or another, enjoyed what I brought to the industry. So from the bottom of my heart, thank you. For everything.

With that, Chaos steps away from the podium. Grabbing the beer from before, he walks around the podium to the edge of the stage. Lifting his Chadweiser high into the air, he salutes the applauding crowd, before taking a drink, and then placing the still half-full bottle back onto the podium. From the backstage area, out walks Cypress Morgan and Jet Somers. Both men applauding, Jet is the first to near Chaos, the two men grasping in a hug. Chaos and Cypress then share a hug, before all three men motion out to the crowd.

Jezebel Saint, Sherry, and Alexandra Burke slowly make their way towards the stage, Xandy carrying the squirming Hayleigh Marie on her hip. Chaos takes his daughter from Xandy, the soon-to-be two-year-old wrapping her arms tightly around his neck, as he leans down to hug and kiss Xandy. The group then all turn towards the crowd together, Cypress and Jezebel… Jet and Sherry… Chaos, Xandy, and Hayleigh… as the final round of revving engines engulf the entire landscape.

[Lord Hastings]

The Creative Director of UGWC, “The Lord of Pain” Donovan Hastings, steps out onto the stage and approaches the podium.

Hastings: There are two things that make a Hall of Famer, to me. Legacy and accomplishment. What did you achieve in your career? What have you left behind for others to follow? What did you do that set you apart, that you did that nobody else had ever done, that nobody else may ever do? What made you special? Our next inductee checked all those boxes, and more.

Hastings: Ezekiel Pax traces his roots before UGWC, to one of our “parent” promotions, Global Impact Wrestling, all the way back in 2008. His first victory came over a man named Garth Gaffney.

Fan: FUCK YEAH GAFFNEY!

Hastings: I see the beer stands are still open. Chaos should be happy. As I was saying, Zeke made his name in GIW alongside his partner, Marek Daisuke. Together they were known as War and Peace, and that year at Horizons they fought American Muscle in a brutal Three Stages of Hell Match to become the first-ever GIW Tag Team Champions. Legacy and accomplishment.

Hastings: After UGWC formed, Zeke came into his own as a singles competitor. He won both the Chaos and Cross-Hemisphere Championships within his first year in the promotion. He won the Cooperative Championship alongside Mickey Dragon. He won the World Heavyweight Title inside Hell in a Cell. You all know what that makes him. Grand Slam Champion. How many of those do we have now? Eight? When Zeke did it, he was only the third. Legacy and accomplishment

Hastings: There have been seven Hell in a Cell matches in UGWC history. It is a horrifyingly brutal match that takes years off your career and leaves scars not only on the body but the soul of anybody that steps within it. To win it, you not only have to conquer your opponent, but you almost have to be able to get inside their head. Nobody has ever participated in two Hell in a Cell matches in UGWC, except Ezekiel Pax. He did it three times. Who did he step inside that cell with? Moss Edwards, Hall of Famer. Phrixus Deimos, likely first-ballot future Hall of Famer. The Drunken Buzzsaw, Chaos...Hall of Famer. Legacy and accomplishment.

Hastings: Zeke and I have had something of a complicated history. We had a misunderstanding of sorts, I can’t seem to recall over what but I am sure it was his fault, but we worked through it and he joined me at the Dungeon of Pain and enjoyed the greatest successes of his career, both in the ring as well as giving back as a mentor and instruction to a new generation. Then he was a dick again and I had to shit him with shit. But Zeke never backed down from big moments. When the Drunken Buzzsaw was on the verge of being known as the greatest Chaos Champion in history, it was Ezekiel Pax who stepped up and said, if you want to be known as that, you’re going through me. Now the journey of the Hall of Fame, of our history of legacies and accomplishments, goes through him. Please join me in welcoming to the stage our newest Hall of Famer, the Red-Eyed Warrior, Ezekiel Pax.

‘Iron Man’ by Black Sabbath plays through the PA system as the Red Eyed Wonder makes his way onto the stage dawning a red three piece tuxedo, black shirt, and red tie. He shakes Donovan’s hand with a nod of respect. The cheers are deafening as he makes his way to the edge of the stage and takes in the reception from his loyal fans. He reaches into the inside pocket of his tuxedo and pulls out a pre-rolled treat. Zeke lights it up with a smile on his face and pockets the lighter before exhaling a massive cloud above his head. He turns and walks to the podium and exhales another cloud of goodness. Pax holds the joint in his hand and gets ready to talk but the cheers pick up even more.

Chants of ‘WELCOME BACK’ echo across the building and morph into chants of ‘PAX! PAX’ PAX!’ as a broad smile spreads across his face. He takes another drag and blows some smoke into the air and before flicking the joint off the edge of the stage.

“Man, oh man. Feels great to be back. Even for just a moment. Last year around this time I was sitting in the crowd as Moss Edwards was inducted into the Hall of Fame and deemed me one of his greatest rivals. And he playfully reminded me that he kicked my ass nearly every time we fought. Well, Mossy…”

Pax smirks slightly as he adjusts the ring on his hand.

“Does this look reminiscent of last year?”

He looks outward to the crowd and raises a middle finger before smiling again and adjusting the ring back to his ring finger.

“In all seriousness and with all the respect in the world, Moss Edwards changed the game in these parts and elevated me to be a better competitor. And for that, I give thanks.”

Zeke gives a slight nod toward the crowd and rubs his chin while thinking of what to say next.

“Let’s blast to the past a little bit, shall we? Donny covered this a bit but let’s dig a little deeper. This story begins for me in 2008 when I was escorted through the halls of the GIW arena by my stepfather, Xavier Bryan. None, and I mean NONE, of this would be possible without him. I was just bumming along in life till about a year before that when he lit a fire under my ass and convinced me to team up with this little skinny Asian dude named Marek Daisuke that was kicking ass at his gym. Two young kids that were polar opposites and formed the aptly named duo of War & Peace. Angry kid who needed an outlet teaming with a chill stoner dude. Opposites attract, right?”

He pauses and takes a breath while running his fingers through his hair, remembering his dear friend.

“Nobody pushed me harder than Marek did.”

He looks down at the ring for just a moment.

“He deserves this more than I do. To Marek.”

Pax raises his hand with the ring on it upward as the crowd erupts in cheers. He wipes a tear from his cheek before a smile crosses his face once again.

“Big props to my bro, Donny, on that induction speech, right? We haven’t always gotten along but some of my favorite memories have been with that crazy son of a bitch and I’m glad he remembers me so fondly. Also, just to clarify, we had beef because you burned my church down, dickhead. But after that we somehow became allies and I joined you at the Dungeon of Pain, bro. We had good times in that gym before you and Trav plotted against me and cost me the Global Championship. But.. shrug. There was more good days than bad days, am I right?

Enemy. Friend. Partner. Protege. Enemy again. Nominated for feud of the fuckin’ year! Thank you, Donny.”

The crowd erupts in more cheers as Pax reminisces on his past with Hastings.

“I can’t let you hog all the glory of kicking my ass though. That’s a long list. Someone who definitely should be mentioned on that list.. Phrixus Deimos. Without sounding disrespectful, I beat this dude when he was seemingly unbeatable. BUT.. if you were to look closely at my face you would see the legacy that he left as he helped me earn my favorite nickname that was coined that evening by the awesome UGWC commentary team. Indestructible. When I won the World Heavyweight championship it was by scratching, clawing, and fighting my way through that man. I was never the same again and for that.. Deimos. I thank you.

I also had some solid moments with the other men joining me on stage this evening. JK and myself formed a short lived little group known as The Vicious Kind but before AND after that we beat the hell out of each other. I enjoyed every moment I stepped inside that ring with you, dude. Whether it was with you or against you. Thank you.

And then there’s Chaos. I can’t mention the other men I faced in the Hell in a Cell without mentioning this mother fucker. As Donny stated, I wasn’t going to let this guy just claim himself as the best Chaos champion of all time without stepping in his way. I proclaimed myself as the gatekeeper of the Chaos Title. Not only because of my reigns as champion but because of the reign of my best friend, Marek. In one single reign he held that title longer than anyone else has. Except Chaos. Everyone called me crazy for willingly stepping in front of the Drunken Buzzsaw but I haven’t exactly been known for my sanity. I was unsuccessful in my mission but I didn’t make it easy for him. It truly is an honor to be inducted into the Hall of Fame next to him. Thank you, Chaos.

I have had several names and titles during my time here. Lackey. Leader. Criminal. Partner. Champion. And now, thanks to all of you, I can add another title. Hall of Famer.”

Cheers of ‘ONE MORE MATCH’ begin to echo throughout the arena as Zeke’s signature smirk appears once again. The cheers continue as he reaches inside his jacket and pulls out another joint, lighting it up. He takes a long drag off the joint and exhales the speak up into the air above him. The crowd quiets down as he prepares to speak again.

“Who knows, boys and girls. There could be more chapters written in this story where I walk down that ramp and get into that ring and get my ass kicked in front of all of you, the amazing fans, once again. Whether you cheered for me or booed me, you always let yourselves be heard as I made my way to the ring. For now you’re just going to have to do what Arnie said in Batman & Robin.”

Pax takes another long drag with another exhale before leaning into the microphone.

“Chill.”

The arena erupts into cheers as Ezekiel raises his hand into the air with a peace sign, his original symbol that he was known for in GIW. He bows then waves and makes his way off stage as the cheers continue.

[Lord Hastings]

Vinegar: Congratulations to the Drunken Buzzsaw, “The Cyclone” JK, and Ezekiel Pax, a talented and accomplished Hall of Fame class, always a proud moment to celebrate some of our great history.

Covert Jay: Enough looking back, it’s time to look forward. It’s WrestleStock Cup time!

Vinegar: The finals of the WrestleStock Open about to get underway, and for the second year in a row, a championship opportunity for the winner.

Lieberjosch: We’ve been informed that the WrestleStock Cup winner this year may select to face any of our champions, and they can do so at our next Pay-Per-View presentation, which will be Day of Reckoning on August 20, at the Xcel Energy Center in St. Paul, Minnesota.

A red spotlight flashes down on the entrance area. The live band begins to play the Moonlight Sonata and a body steps out onto the entrance ramp as the guitars hit in earnest. The massive figure, nearly as wide as he is tall, is the mountainous REDD Thunder, and sitting atop his shoulders like Master Blaster from Mad Max is Sarah Lacklan. Sarah throws back her hood to show the white face and red eyes of the Red Queen. They make their way down the isle with the red spotlight following them as the rest of the arena stays dark. When they come to the ring, Sarah climbs off REDD's shoulders and removes her robe to show the red skin-tight bodysuit beneath with the figure of a large firebird in flight on the back.

Dennis: The following contest is a triple threat match for the WrestleStock Cup, set for one fall! Introducing first, the Red Queen, SARAH SELEEEENNAAA LACKKKKKLLLAAAANNNNN!!!!

Vinegar: Sarah Lacklan is looking to become the first repeat winner of the WrestleStock Cup, and she could very well do it.

Lieberjosch: She missed over six months of action while she recuperated from the tragic events of last fall, but her return performance in the Massive Melee more that proved that she is back and perhaps better than ever.

Covert Jay: And she certainly looked impressive throughout this week, victorious over both Mizore Payne and JC just to get to this match.

“Gimme Your Applause” by Lady Gaga, Britney Spears, & Christina Aguilera begins to play as lightbulbs flash all through the fairgrounds. Kenzi Grey walks out with a confident smile for the fans. An explosion of pyro erupts as she strikes a pose for the cameras. Kenzi’s mother and manager, Sidney Grey walks out to a chorus of boos with her massive bodyguard Maxine, flanking Kenzi as they head to the ring. Kenzi ignores her mother as she heads down the aisle slapping the outstretched hands of the fans. Kenzi climbs onto the ring apron and pauses again for the flash of the cameras, as she kneels there with a smirk. She climbs the turnpost and gives the fans one more photo opportunity as she sits atop the turnbuckle, still blowing kisses and posing for the fans. She hops down, finally entering the ring as she readies herself for her opponents.

Dennis: And her opponents, next, KENNNZZIII GREEYYYYYY LACCCKKKKLLLLAANNNNN!

Vinegar: This might be the most fascinating match-up of the entire tournament, as we have a married couple going up against one another in the finals, Kenzi Grey-Lacklan taking down Kid Dynamo and Captain 80’s on her way to get here.

Covert Jay: The Red Queen has always wanted this, I’m not sure Kenzi is as keen about it, but she will embrace it for the sake of Sarah.

Lieberjosch: Who cares about any of that? The WrestleStock Cup is on the line, that trumps any personal relationships. Besides, there is one rather significant wrench in the works...

Lieberjosch: ...and it is Vaughemous.

Vinegar: Angelica Vaughn granted a bye in the second round, advanced directly to the finals by Chaos after defeating Necron, the newly crowned Chaos Champion, in the opening round on Friday.

Lieberjosch: It’s Lacklanland in there.

Covert Jay: It’s a triple #Cool finale for the tournament, let’s see what happens!

DING DING!!

Vinegar: All three women cautious at the outset, each looking back and forth to the other two, all waiting to see who is going to make the first move.

Lieberjosch: Sarah winks to Kenzi and nods towards Angie, and the Grey-Lacklans both turn their attention directly to Vaughn!

Covert Jay: The Lacklan-Greys.

Lieberjosch: Whichever.

Vinegar: Regardless, both women have both turned to Vaughn, who takes a step back and seems to realize she is in trouble.

Lieberjosch: Sarah shrugs her shoulders as Angie blocks a right hand from Kenzi, but she can’t block the COP KILLA!!

Vinegar: Vaughn dropped by that sick right hook, and Kenzi waits patiently as Lacklan nudges Vaughn out of the ring.

Lieberjosch: This is what they wanted, they were just seeing to it that they got it, and now it is Sarah and Kenzi, one-on-one!

Vinegar: They take a moment to circle the ring and lock up, each woman grappling for position, and Lacklan applies a hammerlock.

Covert Jay: Kenzi counters through into a waistlock, broken by a hip check from Sarah, and Sarah comes off the ropes with a springboard crossbody, Kenzi rolls through right into a pinning predicament!





ONE!!!





Vinegar: Lacklan kicks out and rolls away.

Lieberjosch: And a smile on the face of Sarah Lacklan as she gets to her feet, clearly enjoying this.

Vinegar: They meet back in the center of the ring, grappling for position again, and Lacklan pivots and sends Kenzi into the corner.

Covert Jay: Running knee strike evaded by Kenzi, who drops to the mat and pulls Sarah into a schoolgirl pin!





ONE!!!





TWO!!!!!





Vinegar: Lacklan kicks out!

Lieberjosch: And as they both pop to their feet, Sarah comes off the ropes and connects with a shining wizard!

Vinegar: Now she has the cover!





ONE!!!





TWO!!!!!





Vinegar: Kenzi kicks out!

Lieberjosch: Sarah bringing Kenzi back to her feet, but Vaughn is back in the ring and knocks both women down with a leaping double clothesline!

Covert Jay: Angie targeting Kenzi, connects with a bicycle kick, now coming off the ropes to follow-up, but Sid reaches under the bottom rope and trips her up!

Vinegar: Sidney Grey is pleased with herself, intervening on behalf of her daughter again, but Sarah Lacklan is now talking with referee Brian Chartreuse and pointing at her, pantomiming what just happened.

Lieberjosch: Brian Chartreuse just ejected Sidney Grey!

Vinegar: Good! It’s about time she was held accountable!

Lieberjosch: Held accountable? She supports her child like any good parent should, and this is what she gets?

Vinegar: Sidney Grey is irate, throwing a fit at ringside, but Maxine picks her up and begins carrying away through the crowd of fans!

Covert Jay: Sarah blows her a kiss as she leaves, but turns around right into a sick kick from Angie!

Vinegar: Cover!





ONE!!!





TWO!!!!!





Lieberjosch: Kenzi breaks it up!

Vinegar: Kenzi goes to whip Vaughn across the ring, but she plants her feet and pulls Kenzi into a roundhouse kick!

Covert Jay: Kenzi onto her knees, Angie winds up and cracks her with a kick to the chest!

Crowd: OBVS!

Lieberjosch: Sarah sitting up onto her knees on the other side of Vaughn, as she turns and delivers a kick there as well!

Crowd: OBVS!!

Covert Jay: Kick to Kenzi!

Crowd: OBVS!!

Lieberjosch: Kick to Sarah!

Crowd: OBVS!!

Covert Jay: Kenzi!

Crowd: OBVS!!

Lieberjosch: Sarah!

Crowd: OBVS!!

Covert Jay: #VAUGHNEMOUS TO KENZI!!

Vinegar: Vaughn with the cover!





ONE!!!





TWO!!!!!





Vinegar: Lacklan dives and breaks up the cover!

Lieberjosch: Sarah tries to apply a chicken wing to Vaughn, having some trouble locking it in, Vaughn elbows her off.

Covert Jay: EW!!

Vinegar: Vaughn has the mandible claw locked in, Lacklan flailing her arms, but she manages to kick Vaughn in the gut!

Lieberjosch: Kenzi stumbles to her feet, steps next to Sarah, and they lift Vaughn into a double vertical suplex!

Covert Jay: Sarah taps Kenzi and points at the ropes, and Kenzi springboards and connects with a moonsault on Angie!

Vinegar: Lacklan pulls Kenzi into a roll-up!





ONE!!!





TWO!!!!!





Vinegar: Kenzi kicks out!

Lieberjosch: And Kenzi rolls away and now glares at Sarah, Sarah putting up her hands and shrugs her shoulders, she had to try, and now she offers a hand to help Kenzi back up.

Vinegar: She accepts it-

Covert Jay: BREAKOUT PERFORMANCE!

Lieberjosch: Kenzi got Sarah with the Breakout Performance, and now she has the cover!





ONE!!!





TWO!!!!!





Vinegar: Lacklan gets the shoulder up!

Lieberjosch: And she has a smile on her face as she does so, Sarah Lacklan is enjoying every second of this contest!

Vinegar: Kenzi back to her feet, staring down at her, trying to decide the next move.

Lieberjosch: Vaughn is back up!

Vinegar: Kenzi sidesteps the charging Vaughn!

Covert Jay: #VAUGHNEMOUS TO SARAH!!

Vinegar: But Kenzi pulls her into a schoolgirl pin!





ONE!!!





TWO!!!!!





Vinegar: Vaughn kicks out!

Lieberjosch: Both women to their feet, Kenzi ducks under a clothesline and comes off the ropes!

Covert Jay: ONE HIT WONDER!!

Vinegar: Vaughn knocked through the ropes to the outside, and now Kenzi turns back her attention to Lacklan, bringing her to her feet.

Lieberjosch: COP KILLA!!!

Vinegar: Lacklan connects with the hook, might not have gotten all of it as Kenzi remains on her feet, but Lacklan quick to grab her!

Lieberjosch: ABYSS!!!!

Vinegar: Kenzi floats off safely!

Covert Jay: BLOCKBUSTER!!!!!

Vinegar: Kenzi has the cover!





ONE!!!





TWO!!!!!





THREE!!!!!!!





Dennis: Here is your winner, and the 2018 WrestleStock Cup Winner...KEENNZZZII GREEYY-LACKKKKLLAAANNNNNN!!!!

Covert Jay: Kenzi did it!

Vinegar: Kenzi Grey-Lacklan did it, she won the WrestleStock Open, and she does it by pinning last year’s winner, her own wife!

Lieberjosch: What a performance today and throughout this tournament by all three of these women, and let me tell you, Sidney Grey is going to be proud!

Vinegar: It’s Kenzi that should be proud, nothing can take this victory away from her, and the Chill mainstay is about to see her first shot at UGWC gold!

Lieberjosch: Sarah back to her feet, standing in front of Kenzi, Kenzi has tears in her eyes, and Sarah opens her arms and they embrace!

Vinegar: Vaughn climbing back into the ring, Roxy Cotton coming from the crowd to join them as well!

Lieberjosch: All four women embrace, and now they raise each other’s arms, with Sarah pointing specifically at the waist of Kenzi!

Covert Jay: What a #CoolMoment!

Vinegar: But the festival isn’t over yet! The main event for the World Heavyweight Title is next!

(2017)

[Lord Hastings]

Vinegar: It has been an amazing four days here in New Orleans for WrestleStock, our congratulations once again to Kenzi Grey-Lacklan, the winner of the WrestleStock Cup, and we look forward to learning what the next step is for this talented young woman.

Lieberjosch: Congratulations again to the Cyclone, the Buzzsaw, and the Red-Eyed Wonder, all taking their rightful place in the UGWC Hall of Fame.

Vinegar: We hope everyone has enjoyed this year’s festival, whether you were here with us in New Orleans or if you are watching at home, and it is time now, for our final main event.

Covert Jay: So many epic and iconic moments involving the World Title at WrestleStock, from Tyvola winning Gameshowpalooza at the first ever festival, Hastings unifying the title with the historic PPW Paramount Championship, Travis Roberts climbing up the side of the USS Yorktown, to last year, Gabriel Baal winning the title after a failed cash-in attempt by Hastings. What will this match have in store for us?

Soft ambient, electronic sounds escape the PA system, and after a modest crescendo, the sounds are invaded by a dueling duet between a rhythmic, aggressive guitar riff and high notes from a piano. After a few rounds of call-and-response, the guitar claims victory by expanding the riff while the background continues to build until a single flash of bright lights resets the scene as Claudio Sanchez’s voice commands the audience’s attention.

All nonbelievers stand aside in fear
A new day’s marching through the door

As the momentary flash fades and the house lights normalize, Kem Dynamo bursts through the entryway, fired up and excited to reunite with the #UnifiedUniverse. Kem makes her way slowly down to ringside, interacting with fans in the front few rows while the camera bounces between watching her arrive and cutting to signs in the audience showing support for The Outlier.

You’ve come so far from innocence
Provided all the consequence
Only what does it matter now

At the pre-chorus, Kem turns her attention towards the ring and takes a few steps to pick up a run before sliding under the bottom rope then rolling through to a kneeling pose that hits the center of the ring right on the downbeat of the chorus.

’Cause you’re going hooooooome
You’re running freeeeeeeee

Inside the ring, Kem continues to pose for and engage with the crowd as the chorus plays before climbing a random turnbuckle and joining the crowd in an arena-wide rendition of the song’s “WOAH OH WAH OH WA-OH WA-OH” before jumping down and bolting to an opposite corner to do it one more time with the other side of the audience.

Energized by the support of the #UnifiedUniverse, Kem turns her attention to the match at hand as the music fades out.

Dennis: The following contest is your WrestleStock Day Four MAIN EVENT, set for one fall, and is for the WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP! Introducing first, the challenger, she is the winner of the 2018 Massive Melee, KEMMMM DYNNNNAAMMMOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

Vinegar: Perhaps it is fitting that Kem Dynamo receive her first opportunity to challenge for the World Title here at WrestleStock, it was two years ago at Patriot’s Point that Kem Dynamo won a fatal fourway match on the final day of the festival to become the second ever WrestleStock Cup winner.

Covert Jay: And not only did she win this year’s Massive Melee to earn this opportunity, but it was the largest Massive Melee in history, quite an accomplishment.

Lieberjosch: Appropriate, considering she is the-

Vinegar: Don’t.

Lieberjosch: What?

Vinegar: Just don’t.

Lucy Wylde begins making her way to the ring.

Dennis: And her opponent, she is the reigning AND defending World Heavyweight Champion, LUUUCCYYYYY WYYYYYYYYLLLLLLLLDDDDDEEEEEE!!!!!

Vinegar: We were saying moments ago about the appropriateness of Kem Dynamo challenging at WrestleStock, and today, the day we inducted three new members of the UGWC Hall of Fame, Lucy Wylde set to defend the World Heavyweight Title, and she could be enshrined in the Hall one day herself.

Lieberjosch: Hard to argue with that, she certainly is on the path. A three-time Cross-Hemisphere Champion, now the World Champion, a successful defense at WrestleStock would do a lot to cement her legacy.

Vinegar: The list of successful World Title defenders at WrestleStock includes names like Tyvola, Donovan Hastings, and Travis Roberts, can Lucy Wylde add herself to that group here today?

DING DING!!

Vinegar: Dynamo and Wylde staring across the ring at each other, there has been quite a bit of animosity the past few weeks between these two competitors, about to put it all on the line here at WrestleStock.

Lieberjosch: Circling the ring, waiting to see who is going to make the first move, and here we go, they lock up with a double elbow tie-up.

Vinegar: Both women grappling for position, and Dynamo shoves Wylde to the mat, sending her sprawling into the corner!

Lieberjosch: Kem Dynamo doesn’t often play the power game, generally prefers to use her deceptive speed, but clearly sending a message to the champion right out of the gate, do not underestimate me.

Vinegar: Wylde staring at Dynamo as she uses the ropes to pull herself back up in the corner, Dynamo comes charging in as she does so, but Wylde moves out of the way, Dynamo running into the corner.

Covert Jay: Wylde with a series of chops to the chest, whips Dynamo across the ring into the far corner, and as Dynamo stumbles back out, Wylde knocks her down with a spinning heel kick.

Vinegar: Dynamo quickly back to her feet, but Wylde springboards into a leg lariat to put her back down.

Lieberjosch: Kem again right back up, but this time Lucy comes off the ropes and connects with a shining wizard, and a cover!





ONE!!!





TWO!!!!!





Vinegar: Dynamo kicks out, and she rolls to the outside, needs to collect herself after that rapid flurry of offense from the champion.

Lieberjosch: Lucy is having none of it, as she runs and dives through the ropes, spearing Dynamo at ringside!

Vinegar: Kem Dynamo is down at ringside, and Lucy Wylde rolls back in and tells Owen Peterson he can count her out.


ONE!!


TWO!!


Lieberjosch: Not sure if this is confidence or dismissiveness on the part of the champion,


THREE!!


FOUR!!


Vinegar: Dynamo stirring as Wylde rests against the turnbuckle.


FIVE!!


SIX!!


Covert Jay: Honestly, this might just be a situation where there is no love lost and Lucy can’t be bothered to expend the energy to hoist the heffer up off the ground.


SEVEN!!


EIGHT!!


Vinegar: Dynamo is up, and she slides back into the ring!

Lieberjosch: Lucy cocks her head to the side for an instance before coming to meet her, and she ducks under a clothesline attempt from Dynamo before taking her down with a leg sweet.

Vinegar: Dynamo trying to get back up but Wylde hooks the leg, looking for the fisherman’s buster, but Dynamo counters with a knee, drops Wylde with a DDT!

Covert Jay: And now Dynamo somersaults into the Hangover!

Vinegar: Dynamo with the cover!





ONE!!!





TWO!!!!!





Vinegar: Wylde kicks out!

Lieberjosch: Lucy rolls away and starts to use the ropes to pull herself up, Kem charges at her, but Lucy pulls the top rope down, and Kem spills over them to ringside!

Vinegar: Dynamo holding her shoulder as she tries to get back to her feet at ringside, Wylde stepping out onto the apron.

Lieberjosch: Lucy leaps off the apron at her, but Kem catches her in the air and STOs her right into the steel steps!

Vinegar: Dynamo pushes Wylde into the ring, rolls in right behind her.

Covert Jay: Lucy is holding her back, the impact on the steel moments ago doing significant damage!

Vinegar: Hammerlock applied by Dynamo, cradles!

Covert Jay: LIGHTS OUT!

Vinegar: Wylde twists out of it!

Lieberjosch: WYLDE LIBERATION!!!!!!!!!

Vinegar: Wylde hooks the leg!





ONE!!!





TWO!!!!!





THR-





Vinegar: DYNAMO KICKS OUT!!!!

Lieberjosch: Lucy Wylde can’t believe it, I can’t say that I can believe it either!

Vinegar: Wylde is looking for an explanation from Owen Peterson, he emphatically motions that the shoulder was up in time, and now Lucy Wylde backs into a corner, her hand going back to her back as she is trying to figure out how she can get Dynamo to stay down.

Covert Jay: I think the plan is in place, here it comes!

Lieberjosch: KEEP YOUR CHIN UP!

Vinegar: DYNAMO SPRINGS OFF THE MAT AND CATCHES HER IN A REVERSE STO!!!

Lieberjosch: And now she is applying the figure-four necklock!

Covert Jay: BLACKOUT!!!

Vinegar: Lucy Wylde is trapped in this devastating submission hold, she can’t break free!

Lieberjosch: Those massive legs wrapped around the throat of the champion, choking the life out of her!

Covert Jay: She is fading! She is fading fast!

Lieberjosch: Look at the ferocity on the face on Kem Dynamo, as she wrenches the hold even tighter!

Vinegar: Lucy Wylde refusing to give up, but how much can she take of this!

Covert Jay: She’s going to pass out!

Lieberjosch: BUT SHE GETS HER FOOT ON THE BOTTOM ROPE!!

Vinegar: Owen Peterson demanding the break, Dynamo looks exasperated but she relents.

Lieberjosch: Kem Dynamo slides back as she releases the hold, and she sits for a moment and just stares at Lucy, she thought she had the title won there!

Vinegar: Dynamo stands and grabs Wylde by the head, dragging her away from the ropes, but Wylde kicks her in the face!

Covert Jay: Kem knocked on her back, Lucy dangerous even from a supine position, and now Lucy holding her own throat as she stumbles to her feet.

Vinegar: Wylde headed to the corner, takes a moment to collect herself, she looks exhausted, now starting to climb the turnbuckle.

Lieberjosch: Kem comes flying in with a splash, crushing Wylde against the turnbuckle!

Vinegar: Dynamo sets up Wylde on the top turnbuckle, seated facing out to the crowd, and Dynamo now climbing the turnbuckle herself.

Cj Superplex!

Lieberjosch: Lucy slams back with an elbow, catches Kem right in the face, but she shrugs it off!

Vinegar: A second elbow, and a third, and Kem Dynamo is knocked off the turnbuckle back to the ring!

Covert Jay: Lucy standing on the top rope!

Lieberjosch: CALAMITY FROM THE SKIES!!!

Vinegar: Wylde connects with the double rotation moonsault, and she hooks the leg!





ONE!!!





TWO!!!!!





THREE!!!!!!!





Dennis: Here is your winner, and STILL the World Heavyweight Champion...LUUCCCYYYYYY WYYYLLLLLDDDDEEEEEEE!!!!

Vinegar: Lucy Wylde has done it! She has retained the World Title here at WrestleStock!

Lieberjosch: What an effort by Kem Dynamo, she brought everything she had, just wasn’t enough to take down Lucy Wylde here today.

Vinegar: Another incredible four days at the WrestleStock festival, another monumental celebration of the industry in the books.

Covert Jay: Synergy returns on July 23rd, we will see you then!


Lucy Wylde - 7.41

Kem Dynamo - 7.23

Let me be the first to say that WrestleStock is just so much freakin' fun as both a concept and the realization of it by the staff members and contributing seg writers. So much of our corner of the game gets pulled into this and this year's was full of insane moments and a crazy amount of interaction between matches, segs, CD pieces, and social media. Massive congratulations go to my best friend in this game for winning the Open Cup.

And Bossman: Love those alternative entrance themes!

[Deleted]

Actually, I came in second! So I guess it's up to ME to congratulate Kenzi on a much deserved win! You're a master at cross-media roleplaying, you use everything for angles, and not the single slightest tweet doesn't have a purpose in the grand scheme of things. Your world-building is top notch, and I'm very glad to be a part of it. I guess... you had what it takes!

Also a MAJ shout-out to the staff, match writers and all contributors. You have every reason to be proud of this amazing event.

First off, I say it in rp's because it's true; UGWC is filled with such amazing talent, but it is such a joy to be part of because everyone is so into everything that is going on. You see it in the rps and especially in the match writing. I don't know that I have been a part of a place that was so dialed in and fun.

I really appreciate the kind words from everyone, especially because I just enjoy creating and storytelling. The fact that I get to do it with my friends while making new ones is the best ever. I can't wait to see where our stories take us all next, I know that it will be amazing fun no matter where it goes.

Thanks again, everyone!

[DrunkenBuzzsaw]

I hope to leave full feedback on not only each day of Wrestlestock, but also on rps, but I just want to quickly say that I hope everyone enjoyed the work that was put into Wrestlestock, and I hope that we did your characters justice.
