Your Synergy coverage begins, now…
- Vinegar, Hans, and Jay give us the usual intro that transitions into childish bickering. [/CopyPaste]
Both teams make their entrances, and it looks as though the headway we had heard rumored regarding the pairing of Wallace and Roberts was just that - rumors - as the two spend the opening moments after the bell rings arguing over which one will start the match. Vain finally throws his hands up and steps out to the apron.
Roberts and Raab start things out, with Travis connecting with a high knee as Raab was coming in for a lockup. ‘The Headliner sends Raab down to the mat with a Russian legsweep, making the cover and getting a quick two-count before Raab gets his shoulder up. Travis is overheard telling Alan that it’s gonna be a short night, so he might want to go ahead and head to the back for the shower that he did nothing to earn, and Alan responds by reaching out and slapping Travis on the arm, tagging himself into the match.
Wallace connects with a back elbow to Raab, sending him down to the mat, as Roberts stands there glaring at him for inserting himself into the match. Vain pulls Konrad back to his feet, only to send him back to the mat with a swinging neckbreaker. Vain makes his way to the corner and hops up onto the top turnbuckle, and he is overheard telling Travis to watch and learn, before jumping off and connecting with a leg drop across the throat of ‘The German Sensation’. Wallace makes the cover, but Hazel East doesn’t make the count, alerting Vain that Roberts had tagged himself in just as Wallace had taken flight, and that Alan would need to vacate the ring.
Roberts is seated on the middle rope, motioning for Wallace to step through, causing Vain to shake his head in disgust. As Wallace steps through, Raab has reached his feet and has come flying over towards Roberts, connecting with a Eurpean uppercut that almost sends Roberts flying over the top rope. Raab turns his attention to Vain, who simply tells him ‘Good Job’, and proceeds to provide him a golf clap. Raab latches his arms around the body of Roberts, and pitches him overhead with a release belly-to-belly suplex, Travis landing high on the base of his neck. Raab with the cover, but Travis kicks out at two, as Vain simply props his foot up on the middle rope and watches.
Roberts is off balance as he gets to his feet and walks into a spinebuster. Another cover by Raab, and another kickout by Roberts, which elicits another golf clap from Wallace, this one directed at Roberts. Raab pulls Travis to his feet, goozles his hand around the throat of Roberts, and lifts him high into the air, planting him with an Iceinator. Raab makes the cover and hooks the leg, but the count is broken up as Vain makes the save with a kick to the back of Konrad’s head.
Raab asking Hazel to admonish Vain about illegally entering the ring, which actually causes Vain to laugh as he steps back out to the ring apron. Irish whip sends Travis into the corner, and Konrad follows up with a hesitation dropkick. Konrad to his feet and makes the tag to Zane. Zane into the ring waiting on Travis to get to his feet, and says something over at Vain. ‘Mr. Ego’ then motions towards Travis and tells Zane to do what he has to do. Roberts up to his feet as Zane turns towards him, and the artist formerly known as ‘The Personification of Pain’ takes off towards him and goes for a big boot. Roberts ducks under, performs the worst possible dive and roll the crowd of Chicago has ever seen, and gets back to his feet. He slaps Alan on the arm and tells him to get into the ring, before dropping to the mat and rolling out of the ring to the floor.
Alan slowly steps through the ropes, walking towards Zane and saying something to him. ‘The Professional’ wastes no time though, connecting with a big boot that staggers his former ‘Syndicate’ cohort. Roberts is back up on the apron now, clapping at Vain and telling him good job, as Zane moves in behind of Wallace and connects with a lung blower. Zane with the cover, but Wallace kicks out at two, as Travis stands in the corner looking on.
Sidewalk slam from Zane sends Wallace back down to the mat, and he follows it up with a knee drop to the forehead of ‘Vanity at its Finest’. Vain trying to make a comeback, connecting with a couple of right hands as he makes his way to his feet, before hauling off and connecting with a knife-edged chop that elicits a huge “wooooooooooooooooooooo” from the crowd. Unfortunately it didn’t even elicit a response from Zane Scott, as he simply absorbed the blow. A straight right hand staggers Wallace, and then Zane hoists Alan up onto his shoulder and takes off across the ring, planting him with a running powerslam. Zane makes the cover, but Vain kicks out just before Hazel’s hand hits the mat for the third time. And that all occurred while Travis is sprawled across the top turnbuckle, laying across the ropes.
Zane up to his feet and takes a few steps towards Travis, as Hazel tells him to get back on the apron. He finally does, but as Zane turns back towards Wallace, he sees Vain roll under the bottom rope and out to the floor. Zane quickly over now and reaches through the ropes, grabbing Vain and pulling him back on the apron. He continues pulling Wallace towards the ring, stopping just as Vain’s toes are caught on the middle rope, before spiking him with a rope-hung DDT. Zane quickly back to his feet, and as Vain attempts to push himself up onto his hands and knees, Zane sends him crashing to the mat face-first with Salt the Earth. Zane makes the cover, but it’s broken up at two-and-nine-tenths as Travis comes in and kicks Zane in the kidney area, forcing the break.
Zane favoring his side as he sends Vain into the corner, before tagging out to Konrad Raab. Konrad in behind of Vain and wraps his arms around his waist, sending him up and over with a German suplex (do German’s just call it a suplex?). Raab maintains his grip, pops his hips and rolls, and pulls Vain back to his feet. He attempts a second German suplex, but Vain blocks it. And with Hazel in a bad position, she doesn’t see Vain connect with a quick back kick to the nether regions of Konrad Raab, causing him to collapse to the mat.
Vain rubbing the back of his head after landing on it as a result of that German suplex, and Roberts reaches in and makes the tag. Roberts steps through the ropes, and he and Wallace stand nose to nose, Vain taking exception to Travis tagging himself into the match again. Raab finally makes his way back to his feet, walking over and shoving Vain’s shoulder. Wallace motions for him to wait a moment, and then proceeds to go back to arguing with Travis. Raab then shoves the shoulder of Roberts, only for Travis to respond similarly to Vain. Raab is determined now, and shoves both men, causing them to stop their arguing and look at him. He’s telling them to come on and wrestle, and the two men then turn and look back at each other, as Konrad takes a couple steps back. Roberts and Wallace both simultaneously shrug, before both move in unison towards Konrad, connecting with a double superkick that sends Raab to the mat.
Roberts over and pulls Raab to his feet, before sending him back down to the mat with a double underhook powerbomb. Raab holding the small of his back as he gets to his feet, and Roberts moves in behind of him and applies a full nelson. Lifting Raab into the air, Travis slams him down with a full nelson slam, before quickly making his way to the corner and climbing to the top rope. He comes flying off, connecting with an elbow drop. Roberts back to his feet and connects with a cheap shot to the jaw of Zane Scott that knocks the former world champ down to the floor. Raab trying to get to his feet, but Roberts hits him with a Shining Wizard of Oz. Back up to his feet, Roberts pulls Raab to his, as Zane slides into the ring. Vain springboards off the top rope and connects with The Money Maker to Zane Scott, just as Travis Roberts lifts Konrad Raab into the air and spikes him with the White Out. Travis makes the cover, and this one is over.
Winners: Alan Wallace and Travis Roberts
Time: 9:23
Travis raises his arm in celebration, as Vain stands there and looks at him. He grabs Roberts by the arm and spins him around, and the two proceed to have a conversation that the cameras can’t pick up. After a few tense moments, Vain takes a step back and extends his hand. Roberts looks at it for a moment before returning the gesture, and the two men shake hands before exiting the ring.
Sloane and Rydell lock up, and Rydell takes Sloane down with an arm drag. Sloane tries to get right up, but Rydell shoves her into the corner and tears into her with several knife edge chops. Rydell grabs Sloane by the arm and pulls her out of the corner and down into the Rydell Lock! Sloane shouts out in pain, but she moves her leg and manages to get it on the ropes near the turnbuckle, and Sam Green forces Rydell to break the hold. Rydell pulls Sloane up and drives her back into the corner with a chop to the chest, then turns and shouts at the referee before turning his attention back to his opponent, and Sloane grabs Rydell and reverses positions with him, delivering several blows to Rydell. Sloane whips Rydell across the ring to the opposite corner, and Rydell runs into the turnbuckle and staggers out into a slingblade from Sloane. Sloane lifts herself above the turnbuckle and hits a split-legged moonsault, then covers, but Rydell kicks out at one and a half.
Sloane pulls Rydell up and whips him off the ropes, but Rydell comes back with a flying forearm, knocking Sloane to the mat. Rydell bounces off the ropes as Sloane is getting up and takes her back down with a swinging neckbreaker. Rydell floats into the cover, but Sloane kicks out at one and a half. Rydell pulls Sloane up into a waistlock and hits a German suplex, then pulls her back up and adjusts his hold before hitting a backbreaker. Rydell covers Sloane and hooks the leg, one, two, Sloane kicks out.
Rydell pulls Sloane up and goes for the Virus of Life, but Sloane shoves him away. Rydell bounces off the ropes and charges for the Tip of the Spear, but Sloane catches him with a kick to the face, staggering him, and she comes off the ropes and plants him with the Silver Lining. Sloane rolls to her feet, and as Rydell is trying to get back up she connects with Seeing Stars to the back of the head! Sloane covers, but Deimos is at ringside and puts Rydell’s foot on the bottom rope, and Sam Green sees the foot and waves off the count.
Sloane can’t believe it, and Deimos is up on the apron now, and it looks like he slid something to Rydell before doing so. Sam Green is telling Deimos to get down as Sloane glares at him, and Rydell gets to his feet, slipping brass knuckles onto his hand, and as Sloane turns around he socks her in the face with them! Sloane goes down like a sack of bricks as Deimos steps off the apron and the referee turns back around in time to count the three!
Winner: Dave Rydell
Time: 6:28
Crowd hates that as Hans claims that Fear merely inspired Rydell to victory, and now Deimos comes into the ring and hands Rydell a chair. Rydell wraps the chair around Sloane’s leg as Deimos climbs the turnbuckle, but SEB rushes down the ramp and slides into the ring, prompting Deimos and Rydell to scatter as he checks on Sloane.
Gabby and Pierce make separate entrances while the 5'2" Mafia make a combined entrance the general details of which are outlined elsewhere. As they both climb in the ring Kenzi is jaw jacking at Pierce as The World Champion keeps her eyes on Gabrielle, when Kenzi smiles and waves at Gabby, Sarah gives the Caramel Coated Goddess a look as brutal as one of her 'Cop Killa' strikes.
Kenzi suggests that Gabby should follow Vain's lead from week and leave another Travis to fend for himself but Gabby politely refuses. She adds that she thinks it will be fun for the two of them to engage in some competitive grappling and that her wallong away wouldn't really help her rehabilitate her image as a legitimate wrestler. At which point Sarah laughs sarcastically and then demands, as World Heavyweight Champion, that Glenn Burke separate the teams and start the match. She also informs him that it will be T-Pie and herself starting the match, and sends another side glance full of disdain towards Gabrielle.
And this the match begins and Pierce takes the advantage with a headlock takedown, but Sar manages to break free with a head scissors, when Travis rolls to his feet Lacklan tries to hit him with a lariat but he manages to keep rolling right under it, he springs to his feet and aims a spinning kick at Sarah, which she ducks and sweeps his leg from under him. 'The Icon of Entertainment' rolls out of the way of a standing elbow drop from the World Champion, gets to his feet and managers to hit Sar' with a springboard shoulder tackle.
Feeling the momentum shifting his way Travis waits for SSGL to get to her feet and sends her into the ropes, hitting a Tilt-a-Whirl backbreaker on her return. As she rolls to her knees he runs the ropes, only for Kenzi to slam her own knee into his back, stalling his momentum and sending him staggering forward into a single knee face breaker from Sarah.
Sarah quickly grabs Travis around the waist and Kenzi tags herself in and they hit the Snap Trap german suplex/superkick combo. Kenzi then jumps on top of Pierce and starts striking him with both hands and the ringside mics catch her telling him that "Raheem Maleek sends his regards". Pierce eventually gets his hands up and blocks her strikes and manages to get out of her grasp by reaching the bottom rope and forcing Burke to pull Kenzi off of him.
Kenzi backs off but as soon as Pierce is back on his feet she lunges for him with a clothesline but he ducks, gets behind her and hits The Breakdown on her, before turning and tagging Gabrielle Sinn into the match.
The Double D-Lister waits for Kenzi to get to her feet, but when she does she looks to lock up and Kenzi takes a step back putting up her hands, and asks if Gabby is sure she wants to fight, Gabby fixes her eyes and nods. Sarah at this point is leaning her entire frame over the top rope screaming for Kenzi to tag her in instead. The Chaos Champion looks over her shoulder at her wife, but as she does Gabby enquires "Too good to mix it with a porn star, are you?'"
Although Sarah heartily and loudly agrees with Gabby, Kenzi spins her head round with a look of hurt and astonishment. Gabby laughs playfully, 'jk' she mouths before striking Kenzi across her chest with a chop that echoes around the UGWC arena. Gabby then invites Kenzi to return the favor, The Chaos Champion cries foul, pointing out Gabby has more 'protection' in that area, the Caramel Coated Goddess considers this, nods, and to the delight of the crowd turns around and sticks her much downloaded backside out towards Kenzi.
Sarah Grey-Lacklan almost has a stroke on the outside of the ring and starts to try and climb in only to be held back by Glenn Burke. Kenzi turns around to calm her wife down and when she does Gabby kneels down and hits her with a hard low blow and rolls her up for the pinfall.
Given Sarah's close proximity she breaks the pinfall up at two and slams her right foot into Gabby's face as hard as possible for good measure. She climbs out of the ring and when Kenzi gets to her feet she tags herself back in. Kenzi gives her a 'look' that only exists between married people, that one you get when the sister-in-law comes round for dinner and just wants to talk about her latest shopping spree and failed dates, the look that says 'Please play nice, for me". Sarah returns this look with the time honoured techniques of pretending to not see or understand it.
Sarah swings at Gabby but is taken by surprise as Gabby 'matrixes' under her arm, and then keeps going and hits The World Champion in the face with a reverse cartwheel kick. Sar' clearly stunned rocks backwards as Gabby runs the ropes and takes her down with The Butt Shot.
Sarah scrambles on the floor trying to wipe the impact zone off with her hands when Gabby grabs her by the hair and hits a curb stomp on her. Sarah manages to make it to the ropes and drag herself upwards and just as a Sinn comes hurtling towards her she lulls down the top rope sending her opponent falling to the arena floor below.
Sar' rolls out of the ring after Sinn and pulls her up by her hair to then slam her head into the guard rail, when she tries a second time Gabby manages to get one of her legs up and braces herself, blocking Sar' at the same time. Gabby then elbows The World Champion in the face grabbing her by the hair and slamming her head into her outstretched leg and knee.
Gabby then throws Sar into the canvas and then strides forward aiming a big boot at SSGL's head, but just before she can connect Kenzi comes flying off the canvas and hits a hurricanrana and sends Gabby flying back into the guard rail.
Sar climbs onto the ring as Kenzi throws Gabby back to her, they make the tag and Sarah lifts Gabby up in a Wheelbarrow and Kenzi runs in to hit the Ace Crusher, but aybthe last minute Gabby manages to shift her weight rolling Sar' up. Whilst The World Champion is not the legal competitot it gets Gabby out of the line of fire and Kenzi crashes tongue ground.
Gabby manages to roll over and tag in Pierce who steams towards Sarah who ducks under his clothesline attempt, and then Kenzi leapfrog him, he hits the ropes and starts his return journey, only to be stopped in his tracks as from one side Sarah hits him with 'The Cop Killa' and Kenzi hits her 'Supergirl Punch' from the other. Travis stands motionless in the middle of the ring for a split second before falling back like a stiff wooden board.
Kenzi makes the cover as Sarah hits a flying knee, with a smile, to knock Gabby off the apron as Glenn Burke slides to his knees and makes the three count.
Winners: The 5’2 Mafia
Time:
It’s Main Event time and do we have a great main event for everyone! It’s champion versus champion as current Cross-Hemisphere Champion Angelica Vaughn defends her championship against young up and comer, and one-half of the current Co-Operative Champions, Sebastian Everett-Bryce III. The young Englishman has made quite a name for himself, in spite of some serious out of the ring problems by forming a formidable team with cooperative partner Sloane Taylor. He’s also shown himself to be quite capable of anything if it helps him win, which causes him some minor occasional issues with his generally principled partner.
He’s also hitched himself to the current World Champion, Sarah Gray-Lacklan, who happens to be “besties” with his current opponent, the current Cross-Hemisphere Champion, Angelica Vaughn. The current Cross-Hemisphere Champion is still the darling of UGWC in spite of her World Championship loss to fellow “Cool Kid” Roxy Cotton. She bounced back more than strongly as she claimed her current championship from former friend and Co-Operative partner Dave Rydell. The popular young champion was forced to take time off after a heinous attack from her former partner, but is looking to reestablish her dominance by retaining her championship.
The challenger enters first and he looks as confident as always. He’s received with thunderous boos, although that may be due as much to who he’s facing as it is to how strongly disliked he is. Regardless of the reason, he soaks in the attention of his fans and goads on those who deride him. He makes certain to remind the fans that he’s a champion too as he holds his half of the Co-Operative Championships in his left hand when he does his signature pose. He stands in his corner and waits of his opponent. She doesn’t keep him waiting.
The Cross-Hemisphere Champion makes her return to the UGWC stage to a massive ovation. She pauses and seems to be genuinely touched and somewhat surprised by the response in spite of the fact that it’s a very Angelica reception from the fans. She walks down the ramp, stopping to sign autographs and slap five with the fans. The crowd seems to get louder as she gets closer to the ring, until it’s absolutely deafening at the point when she reaches it. She too holds her championship up for all to see, but doesn’t get the chance to enjoy the responding adulation as she suddenly lurches forward and into the ropes.
She slides down onto the mat as SEB repeatedly stomps her into the mat. After a couple of minutes, he yanks the Cross-Hemisphere Championship from the mat and holds it overhead. He gets the response that we all expect him to get, which only draws a smile. He looks at Angelica as she pulls herself up with the ropes, his smile widens and he blasts her with the championship, which sends her over the ropes and back out of the ring. He stands at center ring with the Cross-Hemisphere Championship over his head as Referee Brian Chartreuse slides out of the ring and checks on the ring to check on the Cross-Hemisphere Champion.
After a couple of minutes, Angelica convinces Chartreuse that she’s alright to continue. SEB continues to soak in the hatred in the ring as he continues to walk around the ring with the Cross-Hemisphere Championship over his head. This comes to an abrupt end when Angelica slides into the ring, walks up to the celebrating would-be Cross Hemisphere Champion and yanks her championship out of his hands with authority. He turns and glares at her as she respectfully hands the championship to Chartreuse and goes to her corner. Chartreuse hands the championship out to Claude de Rhombus and calls for the bell. The two walk to center ring and tie up. SEB displays his greater power and shoves Angelica away, making sure to mock her in the process. She stands up and smiles sweetly at him, which seems to both catch him off guard and irritate him.
He lunges at her looking for a tie up, but she sidesteps and takes him down with a drop toe hold. She takes a step away as he gets to his feet and he tries for the tie up again, but once again she takes him down with a drop toe hold. This happens two more times before he gets up, visibly annoyed. He goes to tie up with Angelica again, but instead drives a knee into her stomach and boots her in the face. He grabs her and proceeds to break out a barrage suplexes, never giving her a chance to recover between the end of one suplex and the execution of another. Once he completes his avalanche of suplexes he goes for a rather arrogant pin and looks to be genuinely offended when she kicks out at two.
He yanks Angelica up by her hair and uses it to throw her into the ropes. He ignores Chartreuse as he admonishes the brash Brit for his breaking of the boundaries of wrestling. SEB scoffs in a way that would cause Holden to consider going mainstream for long enough to sue him for gimmick infringement, then goes to the rope to resume his attack on the beloved Cross-Hemisphere Champion. Unfortunately for him, she’s recovered. She grabs him as he bends over and sends him head first from the ring to the floor, then climbs out onto the apron.
She waits for him to get to his feet and hits him with a surprise “Vaughnemous” that sends him down in a heap. She drops off the apron and manages to get him back into the ring. Instead of going for the pin, she elects to do more damage to him as she pushes him into the corner and connects with a cannonball and a sick kick. He slumps forward but doesn’t make it to the mat as the leggy champion connects with a series of “Yes” kicks that she concludes with a roundhouse that connects solidly with the side of his head. She tries for the pin, but he kicks out after two and a half.
Angelica reaches down to pull SEB up, but suddenly jerks back clutching at her face. SEB slowly gets to his feet with a devilish smile on his face. Chartreuse rebukes him for the apparent eye poke, but SEB brushes him off with what appears to be the “if you didn’t see it, it didn’t happen” defense. Angelica stumbles around the ring, clearly blinded in one eye but is quickly taken down by a chop block from SEB. He quickly pulls Angelica over to the ropes, drapes her leg across the middle rope, leaps up and comes down hard across it. This draws a yell of pain from Angelica, which causes SEB to repeat the move. He grabs her foot and climbs out onto the apron, dragging her leg through the ropes so that her knee dangles over the rope. He pulls it up, leaps up and back and drops to the floor, snapping her leg down across the rope.
SEB slides back into the ring and grins with clear satisfaction as Angelica rolls around clutching at her leg. He pulls Angelica up, making sure to fold her leg so that her knee is sticking out. He stands up to his full height, then drops down and drives her knee first into the mat. She lets out another howl of pain and tries to grab her knee, but SEB stomps on her hand, then kicks her in the side of the knee before he flips her over and locks in “The King’s Road”. Chartreuse asks Angelica if she wants to submit, but she loudly refuses to as she claws for the ropes.
SEB wrenches back on the hold even further, seeming to gain energy from hearing Angelica’s screams of pain. Unfortunately for him, in his enthusiasm for her agony he lets her get too close to the ropes and she finally grabs the bottom rope, forcing the break. Chartreuse backs SEB off and checks on Angelica, who insists that she can continue. SEB pushes his way past Chartreuse and immediately goes back on the attack, targeting her weakened and possibly injured knee. Chartreuse grabs SEB and pushes him back, telling him to stay in his corner until he says that the match is going to continue. SEB glares at him, but does as he’s told.
Chartreuse returns to Angelica, who’s pulling herself to her feet with the aid of the ropes. The second she’s back to her feet, SEB charges out of his corner and goes back on the attack, nearly bowling Chartreuse over in the process. He goes for another attack on Angelica’s knee, but quickly finds himself in a surprise roll up that gets a two point eight before SEB kicks out. He springs to his feet and furiously kicks Angelica in the knee again. He yanks her up by her hair, drawing another warning from Chartreuse, who he flips two fingers up at before he lands “The Full Platter”, which he follows up with another vicious kick to Angelica’s knee that drops her onto her face. He rolls her over and goes for another arrogant cover, but Angelica kicks out again.
SEB furiously pounds the mat and accuses Chartreuse of a slow count, but he gets nowhere. He continues to register his dissatisfaction with the refereeing, slowly walking Chartreuse back into the corner as he thrusts an irate finger into the official’s chest. Chartreuse argues back and shoves SEB back as he pulls at his shirt and tells SEB that he’s seconds away from losing the match due to sheer idiocy. SEB glares down at him but finally regains his composure. He turns to look for his opponent, only to very suddenly and painfully find her when she shoves two fingers down his gullet with “EW!”.
He struggles against the move, trying to break it as hard as he can, but finds that she has it cinched in. After a couple of minutes of this, he finally wraps his arms around Angelica and relies on brute strength to run and slam her back first into the corner, which breaks the hold. They both collapse to the mat, Angelica face down and SEB on his back. Chartreuse begins the ten count with neither entertainment professional moving.
SEB finally begins to stir as Chartreuse reaches five. Angelica begins to stir at seven. SEB gets to his feet at nine but instead of taking the cheap victory, he grabs Angelica and drags her to center ring before he locks in “The King’s Road” again. She screams in agony this time and begins to claw at the mat like a wild animal. Somehow she pulls herself closer and closer, inch by inch. SEB tries to pull back without releasing the hold, but she somehow eventually manages to get a finger across the bottom rope, which forces the break. SEB howls furiously, yanks Angelica up and throws her into the corner, then darts across the ring, bounces off of the corner and levels her with “Bit of a Kick”, then drops into the pin. Somehow, miraculously, Angelica manages to get her foot across the bottom rope as SEB had been careless in his ring positioning. Chartreuse demands the break, which SEB does with extreme reluctance, then yanks Angelica up by her hair again. He snarls something incomprehensible in her face, throws her back at the ropes and connects with a second “Bit of a Kick”. This time as he collapses onto her, he puts his feet up on the middle rope and that, combined with the sheer amount of punishment his opponent has endured gives SEB the three and UGWC has a NEW Cross-Hemisphere Champion!
Winner: Sebastian Everett-Bryce

- Vinegar, Hans, and Jay give us the usual intro that transitions into childish bickering. [/CopyPaste]
Alan Wallace and Travis Roberts vs Konrad Raab and Zane Scott
Both teams make their entrances, and it looks as though the headway we had heard rumored regarding the pairing of Wallace and Roberts was just that - rumors - as the two spend the opening moments after the bell rings arguing over which one will start the match. Vain finally throws his hands up and steps out to the apron.
Roberts and Raab start things out, with Travis connecting with a high knee as Raab was coming in for a lockup. ‘The Headliner sends Raab down to the mat with a Russian legsweep, making the cover and getting a quick two-count before Raab gets his shoulder up. Travis is overheard telling Alan that it’s gonna be a short night, so he might want to go ahead and head to the back for the shower that he did nothing to earn, and Alan responds by reaching out and slapping Travis on the arm, tagging himself into the match.
Wallace connects with a back elbow to Raab, sending him down to the mat, as Roberts stands there glaring at him for inserting himself into the match. Vain pulls Konrad back to his feet, only to send him back to the mat with a swinging neckbreaker. Vain makes his way to the corner and hops up onto the top turnbuckle, and he is overheard telling Travis to watch and learn, before jumping off and connecting with a leg drop across the throat of ‘The German Sensation’. Wallace makes the cover, but Hazel East doesn’t make the count, alerting Vain that Roberts had tagged himself in just as Wallace had taken flight, and that Alan would need to vacate the ring.
Roberts is seated on the middle rope, motioning for Wallace to step through, causing Vain to shake his head in disgust. As Wallace steps through, Raab has reached his feet and has come flying over towards Roberts, connecting with a Eurpean uppercut that almost sends Roberts flying over the top rope. Raab turns his attention to Vain, who simply tells him ‘Good Job’, and proceeds to provide him a golf clap. Raab latches his arms around the body of Roberts, and pitches him overhead with a release belly-to-belly suplex, Travis landing high on the base of his neck. Raab with the cover, but Travis kicks out at two, as Vain simply props his foot up on the middle rope and watches.
Roberts is off balance as he gets to his feet and walks into a spinebuster. Another cover by Raab, and another kickout by Roberts, which elicits another golf clap from Wallace, this one directed at Roberts. Raab pulls Travis to his feet, goozles his hand around the throat of Roberts, and lifts him high into the air, planting him with an Iceinator. Raab makes the cover and hooks the leg, but the count is broken up as Vain makes the save with a kick to the back of Konrad’s head.
Raab asking Hazel to admonish Vain about illegally entering the ring, which actually causes Vain to laugh as he steps back out to the ring apron. Irish whip sends Travis into the corner, and Konrad follows up with a hesitation dropkick. Konrad to his feet and makes the tag to Zane. Zane into the ring waiting on Travis to get to his feet, and says something over at Vain. ‘Mr. Ego’ then motions towards Travis and tells Zane to do what he has to do. Roberts up to his feet as Zane turns towards him, and the artist formerly known as ‘The Personification of Pain’ takes off towards him and goes for a big boot. Roberts ducks under, performs the worst possible dive and roll the crowd of Chicago has ever seen, and gets back to his feet. He slaps Alan on the arm and tells him to get into the ring, before dropping to the mat and rolling out of the ring to the floor.
Alan slowly steps through the ropes, walking towards Zane and saying something to him. ‘The Professional’ wastes no time though, connecting with a big boot that staggers his former ‘Syndicate’ cohort. Roberts is back up on the apron now, clapping at Vain and telling him good job, as Zane moves in behind of Wallace and connects with a lung blower. Zane with the cover, but Wallace kicks out at two, as Travis stands in the corner looking on.
Sidewalk slam from Zane sends Wallace back down to the mat, and he follows it up with a knee drop to the forehead of ‘Vanity at its Finest’. Vain trying to make a comeback, connecting with a couple of right hands as he makes his way to his feet, before hauling off and connecting with a knife-edged chop that elicits a huge “wooooooooooooooooooooo” from the crowd. Unfortunately it didn’t even elicit a response from Zane Scott, as he simply absorbed the blow. A straight right hand staggers Wallace, and then Zane hoists Alan up onto his shoulder and takes off across the ring, planting him with a running powerslam. Zane makes the cover, but Vain kicks out just before Hazel’s hand hits the mat for the third time. And that all occurred while Travis is sprawled across the top turnbuckle, laying across the ropes.
Zane up to his feet and takes a few steps towards Travis, as Hazel tells him to get back on the apron. He finally does, but as Zane turns back towards Wallace, he sees Vain roll under the bottom rope and out to the floor. Zane quickly over now and reaches through the ropes, grabbing Vain and pulling him back on the apron. He continues pulling Wallace towards the ring, stopping just as Vain’s toes are caught on the middle rope, before spiking him with a rope-hung DDT. Zane quickly back to his feet, and as Vain attempts to push himself up onto his hands and knees, Zane sends him crashing to the mat face-first with Salt the Earth. Zane makes the cover, but it’s broken up at two-and-nine-tenths as Travis comes in and kicks Zane in the kidney area, forcing the break.
Zane favoring his side as he sends Vain into the corner, before tagging out to Konrad Raab. Konrad in behind of Vain and wraps his arms around his waist, sending him up and over with a German suplex (do German’s just call it a suplex?). Raab maintains his grip, pops his hips and rolls, and pulls Vain back to his feet. He attempts a second German suplex, but Vain blocks it. And with Hazel in a bad position, she doesn’t see Vain connect with a quick back kick to the nether regions of Konrad Raab, causing him to collapse to the mat.
Vain rubbing the back of his head after landing on it as a result of that German suplex, and Roberts reaches in and makes the tag. Roberts steps through the ropes, and he and Wallace stand nose to nose, Vain taking exception to Travis tagging himself into the match again. Raab finally makes his way back to his feet, walking over and shoving Vain’s shoulder. Wallace motions for him to wait a moment, and then proceeds to go back to arguing with Travis. Raab then shoves the shoulder of Roberts, only for Travis to respond similarly to Vain. Raab is determined now, and shoves both men, causing them to stop their arguing and look at him. He’s telling them to come on and wrestle, and the two men then turn and look back at each other, as Konrad takes a couple steps back. Roberts and Wallace both simultaneously shrug, before both move in unison towards Konrad, connecting with a double superkick that sends Raab to the mat.
Roberts over and pulls Raab to his feet, before sending him back down to the mat with a double underhook powerbomb. Raab holding the small of his back as he gets to his feet, and Roberts moves in behind of him and applies a full nelson. Lifting Raab into the air, Travis slams him down with a full nelson slam, before quickly making his way to the corner and climbing to the top rope. He comes flying off, connecting with an elbow drop. Roberts back to his feet and connects with a cheap shot to the jaw of Zane Scott that knocks the former world champ down to the floor. Raab trying to get to his feet, but Roberts hits him with a Shining Wizard of Oz. Back up to his feet, Roberts pulls Raab to his, as Zane slides into the ring. Vain springboards off the top rope and connects with The Money Maker to Zane Scott, just as Travis Roberts lifts Konrad Raab into the air and spikes him with the White Out. Travis makes the cover, and this one is over.
Winners: Alan Wallace and Travis Roberts
Time: 9:23
Travis raises his arm in celebration, as Vain stands there and looks at him. He grabs Roberts by the arm and spins him around, and the two proceed to have a conversation that the cameras can’t pick up. After a few tense moments, Vain takes a step back and extends his hand. Roberts looks at it for a moment before returning the gesture, and the two men shake hands before exiting the ring.
~Commercial Break~
Sloane Taylor vs Dave Rydell
Sloane and Rydell lock up, and Rydell takes Sloane down with an arm drag. Sloane tries to get right up, but Rydell shoves her into the corner and tears into her with several knife edge chops. Rydell grabs Sloane by the arm and pulls her out of the corner and down into the Rydell Lock! Sloane shouts out in pain, but she moves her leg and manages to get it on the ropes near the turnbuckle, and Sam Green forces Rydell to break the hold. Rydell pulls Sloane up and drives her back into the corner with a chop to the chest, then turns and shouts at the referee before turning his attention back to his opponent, and Sloane grabs Rydell and reverses positions with him, delivering several blows to Rydell. Sloane whips Rydell across the ring to the opposite corner, and Rydell runs into the turnbuckle and staggers out into a slingblade from Sloane. Sloane lifts herself above the turnbuckle and hits a split-legged moonsault, then covers, but Rydell kicks out at one and a half.
Sloane pulls Rydell up and whips him off the ropes, but Rydell comes back with a flying forearm, knocking Sloane to the mat. Rydell bounces off the ropes as Sloane is getting up and takes her back down with a swinging neckbreaker. Rydell floats into the cover, but Sloane kicks out at one and a half. Rydell pulls Sloane up into a waistlock and hits a German suplex, then pulls her back up and adjusts his hold before hitting a backbreaker. Rydell covers Sloane and hooks the leg, one, two, Sloane kicks out.
Rydell pulls Sloane up and goes for the Virus of Life, but Sloane shoves him away. Rydell bounces off the ropes and charges for the Tip of the Spear, but Sloane catches him with a kick to the face, staggering him, and she comes off the ropes and plants him with the Silver Lining. Sloane rolls to her feet, and as Rydell is trying to get back up she connects with Seeing Stars to the back of the head! Sloane covers, but Deimos is at ringside and puts Rydell’s foot on the bottom rope, and Sam Green sees the foot and waves off the count.
Sloane can’t believe it, and Deimos is up on the apron now, and it looks like he slid something to Rydell before doing so. Sam Green is telling Deimos to get down as Sloane glares at him, and Rydell gets to his feet, slipping brass knuckles onto his hand, and as Sloane turns around he socks her in the face with them! Sloane goes down like a sack of bricks as Deimos steps off the apron and the referee turns back around in time to count the three!
Winner: Dave Rydell
Time: 6:28
Crowd hates that as Hans claims that Fear merely inspired Rydell to victory, and now Deimos comes into the ring and hands Rydell a chair. Rydell wraps the chair around Sloane’s leg as Deimos climbs the turnbuckle, but SEB rushes down the ramp and slides into the ring, prompting Deimos and Rydell to scatter as he checks on Sloane.
~Commercial Break~
Kenzi Grey-Lacklan and Sarah Grey-Lacklan vs Gabrielle Sinn and Travis Pierce
Gabby and Pierce make separate entrances while the 5'2" Mafia make a combined entrance the general details of which are outlined elsewhere. As they both climb in the ring Kenzi is jaw jacking at Pierce as The World Champion keeps her eyes on Gabrielle, when Kenzi smiles and waves at Gabby, Sarah gives the Caramel Coated Goddess a look as brutal as one of her 'Cop Killa' strikes.
Kenzi suggests that Gabby should follow Vain's lead from week and leave another Travis to fend for himself but Gabby politely refuses. She adds that she thinks it will be fun for the two of them to engage in some competitive grappling and that her wallong away wouldn't really help her rehabilitate her image as a legitimate wrestler. At which point Sarah laughs sarcastically and then demands, as World Heavyweight Champion, that Glenn Burke separate the teams and start the match. She also informs him that it will be T-Pie and herself starting the match, and sends another side glance full of disdain towards Gabrielle.
And this the match begins and Pierce takes the advantage with a headlock takedown, but Sar manages to break free with a head scissors, when Travis rolls to his feet Lacklan tries to hit him with a lariat but he manages to keep rolling right under it, he springs to his feet and aims a spinning kick at Sarah, which she ducks and sweeps his leg from under him. 'The Icon of Entertainment' rolls out of the way of a standing elbow drop from the World Champion, gets to his feet and managers to hit Sar' with a springboard shoulder tackle.
Feeling the momentum shifting his way Travis waits for SSGL to get to her feet and sends her into the ropes, hitting a Tilt-a-Whirl backbreaker on her return. As she rolls to her knees he runs the ropes, only for Kenzi to slam her own knee into his back, stalling his momentum and sending him staggering forward into a single knee face breaker from Sarah.
Sarah quickly grabs Travis around the waist and Kenzi tags herself in and they hit the Snap Trap german suplex/superkick combo. Kenzi then jumps on top of Pierce and starts striking him with both hands and the ringside mics catch her telling him that "Raheem Maleek sends his regards". Pierce eventually gets his hands up and blocks her strikes and manages to get out of her grasp by reaching the bottom rope and forcing Burke to pull Kenzi off of him.
Kenzi backs off but as soon as Pierce is back on his feet she lunges for him with a clothesline but he ducks, gets behind her and hits The Breakdown on her, before turning and tagging Gabrielle Sinn into the match.
The Double D-Lister waits for Kenzi to get to her feet, but when she does she looks to lock up and Kenzi takes a step back putting up her hands, and asks if Gabby is sure she wants to fight, Gabby fixes her eyes and nods. Sarah at this point is leaning her entire frame over the top rope screaming for Kenzi to tag her in instead. The Chaos Champion looks over her shoulder at her wife, but as she does Gabby enquires "Too good to mix it with a porn star, are you?'"
Although Sarah heartily and loudly agrees with Gabby, Kenzi spins her head round with a look of hurt and astonishment. Gabby laughs playfully, 'jk' she mouths before striking Kenzi across her chest with a chop that echoes around the UGWC arena. Gabby then invites Kenzi to return the favor, The Chaos Champion cries foul, pointing out Gabby has more 'protection' in that area, the Caramel Coated Goddess considers this, nods, and to the delight of the crowd turns around and sticks her much downloaded backside out towards Kenzi.
Sarah Grey-Lacklan almost has a stroke on the outside of the ring and starts to try and climb in only to be held back by Glenn Burke. Kenzi turns around to calm her wife down and when she does Gabby kneels down and hits her with a hard low blow and rolls her up for the pinfall.
Given Sarah's close proximity she breaks the pinfall up at two and slams her right foot into Gabby's face as hard as possible for good measure. She climbs out of the ring and when Kenzi gets to her feet she tags herself back in. Kenzi gives her a 'look' that only exists between married people, that one you get when the sister-in-law comes round for dinner and just wants to talk about her latest shopping spree and failed dates, the look that says 'Please play nice, for me". Sarah returns this look with the time honoured techniques of pretending to not see or understand it.
Sarah swings at Gabby but is taken by surprise as Gabby 'matrixes' under her arm, and then keeps going and hits The World Champion in the face with a reverse cartwheel kick. Sar' clearly stunned rocks backwards as Gabby runs the ropes and takes her down with The Butt Shot.
Sarah scrambles on the floor trying to wipe the impact zone off with her hands when Gabby grabs her by the hair and hits a curb stomp on her. Sarah manages to make it to the ropes and drag herself upwards and just as a Sinn comes hurtling towards her she lulls down the top rope sending her opponent falling to the arena floor below.
Sar' rolls out of the ring after Sinn and pulls her up by her hair to then slam her head into the guard rail, when she tries a second time Gabby manages to get one of her legs up and braces herself, blocking Sar' at the same time. Gabby then elbows The World Champion in the face grabbing her by the hair and slamming her head into her outstretched leg and knee.
Gabby then throws Sar into the canvas and then strides forward aiming a big boot at SSGL's head, but just before she can connect Kenzi comes flying off the canvas and hits a hurricanrana and sends Gabby flying back into the guard rail.
Sar climbs onto the ring as Kenzi throws Gabby back to her, they make the tag and Sarah lifts Gabby up in a Wheelbarrow and Kenzi runs in to hit the Ace Crusher, but aybthe last minute Gabby manages to shift her weight rolling Sar' up. Whilst The World Champion is not the legal competitot it gets Gabby out of the line of fire and Kenzi crashes tongue ground.
Gabby manages to roll over and tag in Pierce who steams towards Sarah who ducks under his clothesline attempt, and then Kenzi leapfrog him, he hits the ropes and starts his return journey, only to be stopped in his tracks as from one side Sarah hits him with 'The Cop Killa' and Kenzi hits her 'Supergirl Punch' from the other. Travis stands motionless in the middle of the ring for a split second before falling back like a stiff wooden board.
Kenzi makes the cover as Sarah hits a flying knee, with a smile, to knock Gabby off the apron as Glenn Burke slides to his knees and makes the three count.

Cross-Hemisphere Championship
Angelica Vaughn vs Sebastian Everett-Bryce III
Angelica Vaughn vs Sebastian Everett-Bryce III
It’s Main Event time and do we have a great main event for everyone! It’s champion versus champion as current Cross-Hemisphere Champion Angelica Vaughn defends her championship against young up and comer, and one-half of the current Co-Operative Champions, Sebastian Everett-Bryce III. The young Englishman has made quite a name for himself, in spite of some serious out of the ring problems by forming a formidable team with cooperative partner Sloane Taylor. He’s also shown himself to be quite capable of anything if it helps him win, which causes him some minor occasional issues with his generally principled partner.
He’s also hitched himself to the current World Champion, Sarah Gray-Lacklan, who happens to be “besties” with his current opponent, the current Cross-Hemisphere Champion, Angelica Vaughn. The current Cross-Hemisphere Champion is still the darling of UGWC in spite of her World Championship loss to fellow “Cool Kid” Roxy Cotton. She bounced back more than strongly as she claimed her current championship from former friend and Co-Operative partner Dave Rydell. The popular young champion was forced to take time off after a heinous attack from her former partner, but is looking to reestablish her dominance by retaining her championship.
The challenger enters first and he looks as confident as always. He’s received with thunderous boos, although that may be due as much to who he’s facing as it is to how strongly disliked he is. Regardless of the reason, he soaks in the attention of his fans and goads on those who deride him. He makes certain to remind the fans that he’s a champion too as he holds his half of the Co-Operative Championships in his left hand when he does his signature pose. He stands in his corner and waits of his opponent. She doesn’t keep him waiting.
The Cross-Hemisphere Champion makes her return to the UGWC stage to a massive ovation. She pauses and seems to be genuinely touched and somewhat surprised by the response in spite of the fact that it’s a very Angelica reception from the fans. She walks down the ramp, stopping to sign autographs and slap five with the fans. The crowd seems to get louder as she gets closer to the ring, until it’s absolutely deafening at the point when she reaches it. She too holds her championship up for all to see, but doesn’t get the chance to enjoy the responding adulation as she suddenly lurches forward and into the ropes.
She slides down onto the mat as SEB repeatedly stomps her into the mat. After a couple of minutes, he yanks the Cross-Hemisphere Championship from the mat and holds it overhead. He gets the response that we all expect him to get, which only draws a smile. He looks at Angelica as she pulls herself up with the ropes, his smile widens and he blasts her with the championship, which sends her over the ropes and back out of the ring. He stands at center ring with the Cross-Hemisphere Championship over his head as Referee Brian Chartreuse slides out of the ring and checks on the ring to check on the Cross-Hemisphere Champion.
After a couple of minutes, Angelica convinces Chartreuse that she’s alright to continue. SEB continues to soak in the hatred in the ring as he continues to walk around the ring with the Cross-Hemisphere Championship over his head. This comes to an abrupt end when Angelica slides into the ring, walks up to the celebrating would-be Cross Hemisphere Champion and yanks her championship out of his hands with authority. He turns and glares at her as she respectfully hands the championship to Chartreuse and goes to her corner. Chartreuse hands the championship out to Claude de Rhombus and calls for the bell. The two walk to center ring and tie up. SEB displays his greater power and shoves Angelica away, making sure to mock her in the process. She stands up and smiles sweetly at him, which seems to both catch him off guard and irritate him.
He lunges at her looking for a tie up, but she sidesteps and takes him down with a drop toe hold. She takes a step away as he gets to his feet and he tries for the tie up again, but once again she takes him down with a drop toe hold. This happens two more times before he gets up, visibly annoyed. He goes to tie up with Angelica again, but instead drives a knee into her stomach and boots her in the face. He grabs her and proceeds to break out a barrage suplexes, never giving her a chance to recover between the end of one suplex and the execution of another. Once he completes his avalanche of suplexes he goes for a rather arrogant pin and looks to be genuinely offended when she kicks out at two.
He yanks Angelica up by her hair and uses it to throw her into the ropes. He ignores Chartreuse as he admonishes the brash Brit for his breaking of the boundaries of wrestling. SEB scoffs in a way that would cause Holden to consider going mainstream for long enough to sue him for gimmick infringement, then goes to the rope to resume his attack on the beloved Cross-Hemisphere Champion. Unfortunately for him, she’s recovered. She grabs him as he bends over and sends him head first from the ring to the floor, then climbs out onto the apron.
She waits for him to get to his feet and hits him with a surprise “Vaughnemous” that sends him down in a heap. She drops off the apron and manages to get him back into the ring. Instead of going for the pin, she elects to do more damage to him as she pushes him into the corner and connects with a cannonball and a sick kick. He slumps forward but doesn’t make it to the mat as the leggy champion connects with a series of “Yes” kicks that she concludes with a roundhouse that connects solidly with the side of his head. She tries for the pin, but he kicks out after two and a half.
Angelica reaches down to pull SEB up, but suddenly jerks back clutching at her face. SEB slowly gets to his feet with a devilish smile on his face. Chartreuse rebukes him for the apparent eye poke, but SEB brushes him off with what appears to be the “if you didn’t see it, it didn’t happen” defense. Angelica stumbles around the ring, clearly blinded in one eye but is quickly taken down by a chop block from SEB. He quickly pulls Angelica over to the ropes, drapes her leg across the middle rope, leaps up and comes down hard across it. This draws a yell of pain from Angelica, which causes SEB to repeat the move. He grabs her foot and climbs out onto the apron, dragging her leg through the ropes so that her knee dangles over the rope. He pulls it up, leaps up and back and drops to the floor, snapping her leg down across the rope.
SEB slides back into the ring and grins with clear satisfaction as Angelica rolls around clutching at her leg. He pulls Angelica up, making sure to fold her leg so that her knee is sticking out. He stands up to his full height, then drops down and drives her knee first into the mat. She lets out another howl of pain and tries to grab her knee, but SEB stomps on her hand, then kicks her in the side of the knee before he flips her over and locks in “The King’s Road”. Chartreuse asks Angelica if she wants to submit, but she loudly refuses to as she claws for the ropes.
SEB wrenches back on the hold even further, seeming to gain energy from hearing Angelica’s screams of pain. Unfortunately for him, in his enthusiasm for her agony he lets her get too close to the ropes and she finally grabs the bottom rope, forcing the break. Chartreuse backs SEB off and checks on Angelica, who insists that she can continue. SEB pushes his way past Chartreuse and immediately goes back on the attack, targeting her weakened and possibly injured knee. Chartreuse grabs SEB and pushes him back, telling him to stay in his corner until he says that the match is going to continue. SEB glares at him, but does as he’s told.
Chartreuse returns to Angelica, who’s pulling herself to her feet with the aid of the ropes. The second she’s back to her feet, SEB charges out of his corner and goes back on the attack, nearly bowling Chartreuse over in the process. He goes for another attack on Angelica’s knee, but quickly finds himself in a surprise roll up that gets a two point eight before SEB kicks out. He springs to his feet and furiously kicks Angelica in the knee again. He yanks her up by her hair, drawing another warning from Chartreuse, who he flips two fingers up at before he lands “The Full Platter”, which he follows up with another vicious kick to Angelica’s knee that drops her onto her face. He rolls her over and goes for another arrogant cover, but Angelica kicks out again.
SEB furiously pounds the mat and accuses Chartreuse of a slow count, but he gets nowhere. He continues to register his dissatisfaction with the refereeing, slowly walking Chartreuse back into the corner as he thrusts an irate finger into the official’s chest. Chartreuse argues back and shoves SEB back as he pulls at his shirt and tells SEB that he’s seconds away from losing the match due to sheer idiocy. SEB glares down at him but finally regains his composure. He turns to look for his opponent, only to very suddenly and painfully find her when she shoves two fingers down his gullet with “EW!”.
He struggles against the move, trying to break it as hard as he can, but finds that she has it cinched in. After a couple of minutes of this, he finally wraps his arms around Angelica and relies on brute strength to run and slam her back first into the corner, which breaks the hold. They both collapse to the mat, Angelica face down and SEB on his back. Chartreuse begins the ten count with neither entertainment professional moving.
SEB finally begins to stir as Chartreuse reaches five. Angelica begins to stir at seven. SEB gets to his feet at nine but instead of taking the cheap victory, he grabs Angelica and drags her to center ring before he locks in “The King’s Road” again. She screams in agony this time and begins to claw at the mat like a wild animal. Somehow she pulls herself closer and closer, inch by inch. SEB tries to pull back without releasing the hold, but she somehow eventually manages to get a finger across the bottom rope, which forces the break. SEB howls furiously, yanks Angelica up and throws her into the corner, then darts across the ring, bounces off of the corner and levels her with “Bit of a Kick”, then drops into the pin. Somehow, miraculously, Angelica manages to get her foot across the bottom rope as SEB had been careless in his ring positioning. Chartreuse demands the break, which SEB does with extreme reluctance, then yanks Angelica up by her hair again. He snarls something incomprehensible in her face, throws her back at the ropes and connects with a second “Bit of a Kick”. This time as he collapses onto her, he puts his feet up on the middle rope and that, combined with the sheer amount of punishment his opponent has endured gives SEB the three and UGWC has a NEW Cross-Hemisphere Champion!
