The screen is black and you can hear some button mashing with the MHW video game playing in the background. The images, of what are going on, slowly come to life as we see Reaper beating down "War Queen" Leah Aguero inside the MHW video game, on the 4k TV hanging on the wall.
The camera switches to show El Diablo Blanco playing the video game, really getting into it.
Many games have been played over the last couple of months.
Flashes of Anastasia Baudelaire viciously attacking Azurine Vebbins following a match is shown.
We then go back to the MHW video game where Leah Aguero clotheslines Reaper out of the ring before showing El D's real life reaction.
Some win the games...
Flashes of Talia Areano celebrating with her MHW AMMO TV Championship is shown.
While some fail to win...
Flashes of Chris Mosh and Anastasia Baudelaire being taken down by The Purge backstage are shown.
We then go back to El D trying to figure out how to beat Leah in the video game.
Either way... most just want to beat the game.
Flashes back and forth between Psycho's entrance to the ring and Crystal Zdunich's entrance to the ring.
While others are tired of the games.
Flashes of "The Death Dealer" Solomom Cain attacking The Wild Hunt are shown.
We then see Reaper going for his finisher in the video game, before Leah reverses it. And then we see El D panicking in real life.
The ultimate question is; who will survive the games?
Flashes from the fight between the five announced competitors for the Game Over Penitentiary from two weeks ago is shown.
We then see El D growing more frustrated with the video game as you hear the ref making the three count in the video game.
We then see flashes of "War Queen" Leah Aguero celebrating with her MHW Ultimate Championship after retiring Eavan Maloney at Mile High Spectacular III.
These images morph into Leah celebrating in the video game El D has been playing while "Green Light Go" by Becky G can be heard in the background.
Because for everyone else...
We see the controller laying on the couch, and El D is gone.
...it's GAME OVER!
Quick flashes of Leah making El D kiss her boot is shown before we see real life El Diablo Blanco inside the MHW video game, standing behind the video game version of Leah while an "El D!" chant breaks out.
And then the video package ends.
And now... We Are Splat! proudly presents...
The Splat! logo flickers on the screen.
MHW Game Over!!!
The MHW Game Over logo flickers on the screen.
Fireworks explode on the stage area inside of the T-Mobile Arena, as the fans cheer hoping to be on camera, while "Smile Again" by Chaoseum plays throughout the arena. Different fan signs are shown, such as:

Reggie Carter: Welcome everyone to MHW Game Over!!! We are live in Las Vegas, Nevada, and the atmosphere here is unreal!
Steve McLarson: Look at that structure hanging above the ring. Is that really Game Over Penitentiary? It looks horrifying.
Reggie Carter: It is Game Over Penitentiary. And it does look scary! Six competitors will enter that structure tonight, but only one will.... survive.
"Return of the Mack" by Mark Morrison begins playing throughout the arena as a thunderous sound of boos makes it hard to continue hearing the song.
Steve McLarson: And we're kicking the night off with the boss man.
Reggie Carter: I'm Reggie Carter, and I'm sitting ringside with my partner; Steve McLarson. We are pumped up for this huge event, right here on Splat!
Steve McLarson: These fans aren't happy to see Mr. Mack.
Reggie Carter: Well a lot of people think Robert Mack is always stealing the spotlight. So with him coming out to start the show, instead of letting the fans see the matches they paid to see? Yeah, they're going to be mad.
Robert Mack steps out onto the stage with a mic in his hand, a smile on his face, and a swagger in his walk, before stopping for a moment to take in the negative Las Vegas energy.
Steve McLarson: Don't defend these hooligans. They should respect the man who created the company they love.
Robert mouths "I know" to the fans in attendance before putting up his pointy finger for all to see. He then turns slightly back towards the entrance and points towards it as "Bossy" by Kelis begins playing.
Reggie Carter: Well what is this? I thought the Macks weren't on good terms right now?
Steve McLarson: They're married and in love, Reggie. Love conquers all!!
The fan cheer as Katrina Mack steps out from behind the curtains and joins her husband on stage.
Reggie Carter: While I hate to see relationships fall apart, I think Katrina needs to just leave Rob. I agree that when it comes to love, he's fake.
Steve McLarson: You've probably never had a wife, Reggie. You know nothing about love.
Reggie Carter: Eat a dick, Steve.
Robert Mack and Katrina Mack interlace their fingers as they hold hands in front of the entire Mile High Club, both with smiles on their faces.
Steve McLarson: See Reggie! Real love!
Reggie Carter: I am at a lost for words, Steve. This is sad...
Robert Mack slowly raises the mic to his mouth as the music fades away and you can hear all the noise from the Las Vegas crowd.
Robert Mack: Las Vegas!!!
Mixed reactions from the crowd as some cheer at the name of their city being dropped, while more boos come out for who's saying the name of their city.
Robert Mack: Look... I get it...
Robert signals for the fans to be patient with him, which doesn't really work.
Robert Mack: And I know a lot of people are sick to their stomach to see my wife standing right here by my side after everything that has happened between us in the last few months.
The boos keep growing and Katrina is now signaling for the fans to be patient.
Robert Mack: I'm not the perfect human being. I'm not the perfect husband. I haven't made the most perfect decisions when it comes to MHW. But...
The fans just keep booing and Robert shakes his head, understanding at the same time.
Robert Mack: But... I hear you. I've heard you. I've been listening.
Katrina prays for the fans to listen to her husband.
Robert Mack: And with thanks to my wife, I want to get my life and MHW back on track.
Robert hands the mic to his wife, and the boos start to die down at least a little.
Katrina Mack: What Rob has been doing is unacceptable. And while he is thanking me for attempting to get him back on track, the reality is it's not just thanks to me.
Katrina and Robert make eye contact before she keeps speaking.
Katrina Mack: Rob has a great group of friends backstage. People like Ray Hudson. People like Byron Brown. People like even Wavy Crockett.
Loud mixed reactions for Wavy Crockett's name.
Katrina Mack: So many great friends. And not just for Rob, but for me as well. We have all been supportive of each other for each other, and for this amazing wrestling company that Rob created.
Some cheers seep through.
Katrina Mack: MHW can never always make everyone happy all the time. That's impossible. But... we have to do better.
More cheers break out, and then Katrina hands the mic back to Robert.
Robert Mack: I've been listening, guys. And as much as I enjoy the spotlight, you guys are sick of me taking so much of it. And I get it...
More boos start coming through again and Robert does seem to be getting a little impatient, but does helps best to accept it.
Robert Mack: We've been listening, guys. And we know you are sick of me and Katrina fighting over MHW.
Robert hands the mic back to Katrina, since you can barely hear him with all the boos towards him.
Katrina Mack: It's time for us to step behind the curtain. It's time for us to come together and be a team, to not only make our marriage work, but to make MHW work.
Mixed reactions again.
Katrina Mack: So we will! We will step behind the curtain unless needed. And we will appoint General Managers for both ThrowDown and AMMO.
Katrina hands the mic back to Robert.
Robert Mack: You will all meet the new GM of AMMO in two weeks. But without further ado, your new General Manager of MHW ThrowDown...
The lights go out before "Made With Hate" by Prophets of Rage begins playing throughout the arena.
Steve McLarson: I don't want to see Robert Mack go behind a curtain. We need him!
Reggie Carter: I believe that's the Coven's music. Is Jansen Myrrh our new GM of ThrowDown?
All of a sudden the lights come on and Referee Emily Falls walks out onto the stage wearing a suit to mixed reactions and a lot of surprised and/or confused faces in the crowd.
Steve McLarson: Wait a second!
Reggie Carter: Emily Falls has just been promoted from referee to General Manager!
Steve McLarson: Well isn't she the daughter of Robert and Katrina?
Reggie Carter: Yes. So that just means another Mack is in charge. I'm not sure the fans are going to accept this.
Steve McLarson: Well, technically she's a Falls.
Emily Falls hugs her mom and dad and then they leave her on the stage alone with the mic before the music fades away.
Reggie Carter: She's still a Mack at heart.
Steve McLarson: She's nothing like Robert and Katrina....
A "Barf Your Heart Out!" chant breaks out.
Reggie Carter: The fans referring to her old gimmick here in MHW.
Steve McLarson: I can't imagine her running a show.
A "We Want Coven!" chant now breaks out, as Emily Falls patiently waits for the fans to calm down so she can talk.
Reggie Carter: And now the fans are referring to the group she was a part of in Season Two.
Steve McLarson: These fans watch MHW, Reggie. You don't have to tell them everything they already know.
Reggie Carter: We have some new fans, I'm sure, that need to be educated.
Steve McLarson: You need to be educated,
The noise starts to fade out enough to make Emily Falls bring the mic to her mouth.
Emily Falls: I miss those Coven days...
The fans pop for the mention of Coven.
Emily Falls: But just like my in-ring wrestling career, the Coven is a thing of the past.
Loud mixed reactions from the crowd.
Emily Falls: So first thing's first... Emily Falls is DEAD!
Still mixed reactions, but some boos seep through.
Emily Falls: As General Manager of ThrowDown, I'd like to start going by my Government name..... Emily MACK!
More boos just from hearing the Mack name.
Emily Mack: But my first night running ThrowDown is two weeks away. Tonight is MHW Game Over. And we got some awesome action to come...
Some cheers start coming through the noise from Las Vegas.
Emily Mack: Sooooooo let's get to it!
The fans cheer louder, hungry for some wrestling action.
Emily Mack: Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the NEEEEEEEWWWWW MHW AMMO Television Champion... Talia Areano!!!
"Say You Will" by Evanescence is heard on the sound system. Talia Areano comes out from behind the curtain wearing a leather jacket, and her MHW AMMO TV Championship around her waist. When she gets to the ramp, she unhooks her belt and raises high as shower fireworks reign down on her.
Kimberly Brooks: The following match is a Round One Match in The Rise of the Phoenix Tournament, and is for one fall!!! Introducing first... from Buenos Aires, Argentina... weighing in at 125 pounds..... she is the MHW AMMO TV Champion... Talia Areano!!!
Talia walks down the ramp with her hips moving back and forth, swinging her arms. She gets on the apron and enters the ring between the ropes.
Reggie Carter: Time to really get this night started. And what an awesome way to start this night off.
Steve McLarson: This young lady won the AMMO TV Title from Bruiser two weeks ago and ran her out of MHW.
Reggie Carter: Well Bruiser left MHW due to the new travel schedule that's starting tonight.
Steve McLarson: Yeah.... sure....
Talia walks over to the ropes on the right side and stands on the first rope. She then bends over and looks at the fans with a smile on her face.
Reggie Carter: It's going to be interesting to see how Talia Areano carries Mile High AMMO. Bruiser did a damn good job.
Steve McLarson: This was the perfect situation for Talia Areano and MHW as a whole. Talia needed this Championship victory, and AMMO needed this adrenaline shot.
Reggie Carter: Well tonight she's not fighting on AMMO. She's right here live on Game Over, and she has a chance to win a tournament that will give her any title shot of her choosing. She could become a double champ.
Steve McLarson: Can you imagine this woman being the first superstar to hold both TV Titles at the same time?
Talia gets off the ropes and walks to one side of the ring and waits for her opponent.
Reggie Carter: She could go for that Phoenix Title. She could find a partner and go for the Tag gold. The possibilities are endless. I mean... she could even challenge the Ultimate Champion, Steve.
The lights go out as "VIP" by Manic Drive featuring Manwell hits the sound system. A "V" then an "I" followed by a "P" appear on the Tron, fading out into "Mosh".
Steve McLarson: Chris Mosh has been a main stay here in MHW. Imagine what it would mean to defeat the AMMO TV Champion and advance to Round Two of this tournament all in one match.
A spotlight hits the top of the stage to show Chris Mosh standing at the top with his new valet; Marisol Vilaró. Chris walks down the ramp as Marisol follows behind.
Kimberly Brooks: And her opponent... from Las Vegas, Nevada... weighing in at 210 pounds..... being accompanied to the ring by Marisol Vilaró... "The V.I.P." Chris Mosh!!!
Chris gets to the bottom of the ramp as he winks at some of the women in the front row. He climbs up the steps and jumps over the top rope.
Reggie Carter: This is a very interesting match-up. Who do you think will advance afterall, Steve?
Steve McLarson: I got Talia Areano for this one. She has a lot of momentum after winning that gold and sending Bruiser packing. She's kind of a big deal right now.
Reggie Carter: Well it's about that time to find out who advances.
Chris turns in the middle of the ring, and then leans on the top rope looking at the hard cam with a wink and a smirk.

The Rise of the Phoenix Tournament
Round One Match
Chris Mosh
vs
Talia Areano
Chris Mosh looks unimpressed with Talia Areano. Talia looks like she thinks Mosh is an idiot. She steps to the middle of the ring, ready to really get this Special Event kicked off.
Mosh steps towards Talia, rolling his eyes. Talia drops him with a roundhouse kick that almost takes his head off, and he crumbles to the mat. Talia hooks the leg!
One!
Two!
.....
Kickout!
Talia gets up and pulls Mosh to his feet too. Then she takes him right back down with a tornado ddt. The fans are loving it.
Talia goes to the corner of the ring and begins to climb to the top rope. But Mosh rolls out of the ring and the fans are booing The V.I.P.
Talia jumps off the top rope anyways to the outside hooking Mosh into a hurricanrana and sending him face first into the barricade. The fans are cheering loudly for the new AMMO Champion.
Talia pulls Mosh to his feet and rolls him back in the ring before anyone gets counted out. Mosh looks dazed and confused as he tries to get to his feet.
Mosh hits Talia with a sidekick. Another one! Mosh takes a couple of steps back, and then charges her with a clothesline. Talia ducks under though.

Mosh looks at the ref confused before getting to his feet and yelling at John. Mosh shoves John and the fans boo very very loudly. And then John shoves Mosh back, sending him to his ass! The fans lose it!!
Mosh gets to his feet and looks at the ref very angrily. John reminds Mosh that he is the referee and Mosh looks like he doesn't care. John tells Mosh to focus on Talia. Mosh makes an unconcerned face and turns around to where Talia was laying, not seeing her.
He looks confused and then as he looks up, Talia comes flying off the top rope with a crossbody. Talia holds Mosh in a tight pin.
One!
Two!
Kickout!
These two AMMO superstars showed they could hang on any show, as they went back and forth and kept the fans on the edge of their seats. Mosh used some dirty tactics, and his new valet played parts in a lot of that. Talia just kept fighting back with all her heart.
In the end, Talia gave Mosh a Slice of Heaven!!!

Reggie Carter: What a match to start off Game Over!
Steve McLarson: Talia Areano is finally making moves here in MHW.
Reggie Carter: And I love it! Especially after all those dirty tactics Chris Mosh played with. It's great to see Talia Areano fight through all of that and still come out on top. Talia Areano advances to Round Two of this tournament.
Steve McLarson: And we will see that next round in two weeks at the next MHW ThrowDown.
Reggie Carter: I can't wait. Congratulations, Talia Areano!
We are inside The Purge locker room as Una Quinn is trying to hold court. Katrina “Hairicin” Knox and Aoife “Banshee” Maguire are sitting on benches as Lexa Pellegrini paces around the room on her phone.
Lexa Pellegrini: I don’t get this, this is unlike her. Her gear was in the van with us.
Una Quinn: We’ll get this sorted out, Lexa. I’ve got CJ on the hunt.
A knock on the door before the newest member of The Purge, Charlie “Maneater” Jennings and Zoya “Drago” Dragojević walk in, Maneater shaking her head.
Charlie "Maneater" Jennings: From what security tolds me, Wendy’s in the building but no idea where she is.
Una Quinn: Did you talk to any of the Shieldmaidens?
Maneater puts her hands up and shakes her head.
Charlie "Maneater" Jennings: Think the last thing I want to do is go shake the hornet’s nest after the shit Wendy…
Wendy “Zombie” Pellegrini walks in the room wearing a Purge hoodie, all smiles. The rest of the group do not seem very happy.
Wendy "Zombie" Pellegrini: After what shit? Hmm?
Maneater walks up to Zombie, poking her in the chest. Despite Zombie having a few inches of height on her, Maneater is heavier built.
Charlie "Maneater" Jennings: Burning your kutte. Did you forget suddenly who you are… or were… you’re aligned with? Look around the fucking room!
Zombie’s smile never waivers even as she is being poked. She pushes Maneater’s hand away.
Wendy "Zombie" Pellegrini: And what did I tell you before we got here last week? Things aren’t always as they seem. You also said you trusted me, CJ. Don’t worry. Guys, honestly, don’t worry.
As Zombie speaks, the door opens again from behind her, and everyone gets to their feet.
Alex "Bullet" Carbajal: ¿Estás lista?
Zombie turns around as she’s nudged on the arm to Alejandra “Bullet” Carbajal standing in the doorway. Zombie unzips her hoodie and removes it, revealing her Shieldmaiden kutte, her name in white stitching on the front. The two clasp each other’s forearm and nod.
Wendy "Zombie" Pellegrini: May the best Shieldmaiden win.
Bullet leaves and Zombie turns around to everyone giving her the stink-eye. Zombie laughs and bobs her head a bit. Eventually, they all start to laugh with her, mostly out of relief, before Una shakes her head.
Una Quinn: And they say I’M the evil one. I’m impressed.
"Kitoko" by Eva hits the sound system, as Anastasia Baudelaire comes through the curtains.
Kimberly Brooks: The following match is a Round One Match in The Rise of the Phoenix Tournament, and is for one fall!!! Introducing first... from Paris, France... weighing in at 136 pounds..... Anastasia Baudelaire!!!
Anastasia walks down the ramp with her nose up, then walks into the ring and walks around it with her hands high above her head, prideful.
Reggie Carter: We saw these two ladies have a match a month ago, and while Azurine Vebbins came out with the victory, Anastasia Baudelaire was the last woman standing after attacking the Adorkable Angel following the match.
Steve McLarson: So I guess Azurine wants revenge tonight? Look Reggie, here's the thing... Azurine isn't passionate anymore. Anastasia is going to win this time and she's going to advance to Round Two.
As "Radio Gaga" by Queen prominently plays throughout the arena, "The Adorkable Angel" Azurine Vebbins pirouettes onto the entrance ramp. A solitary spotlight provides an ethereal glow as she begins to descend down the ramp like a hardheaded housewife practicing aerobics.
Kimberly Brooks: And her opponent... residing in Los Angeles, California... weighing in at 115 pounds..... Azurine Vebbins!!!
Azzy performs various other dance steps while making her way to the eastern ring apron. Along the way, she waves, high-fives and hugs certain chanters she comes into contact with. When a chanter puckers up for a kiss, she points to her halo (neck collar).
Reggie Carter: A lot of people have been very vocal about Azurine Vebbins lately, like you said earlier, that she isn't the same Azurine Vebbins we remember.
Steve McLarson: Well she's not. And I think what gets on my nerves the most is that she doesn't care. She's content with being garbage.
Reggie Carter: You don't think you're being a bit too harsh.
Steve McLarson: Definately not.
Upon entering the eastern ring apron, Azzy glides between the bottom and middle ropes before awaiting referee instruction.
Reggie Carter: Well let's see if she can beat Anastasia Baudealire a second time.
Steve McLarson: She can't.
Match Official: Samantha Demars
The Rise of the Phoenix Tournament
Round One Match
Azurine Vebbins
vs
Anastasia Baudelaire
Anastasia wastes no time running at Azzy, but she runs right into a standing dropkick. Azzy gets to her feet and looks around the T-Mobile Arena before giving a shrug.
As soon as Anastasia gets to her feet, Azzy takes her back down with a fireman's carry, and then puts her into a sleeper hold with body scissors. Anastasia is fighting to get out and the ref is checking on her.
Anastasia rolls over, rolling over Azzy who is forced to let go. Both women get to their feet and Azzy takes Anastasia back down with a scoop slam.
Azzy is staying on top of Anastasia and locks her into a Boston crab. The ref is checking on her again as Anastasia screams in pain trying to claw her way out.
Anastasia gets to the ropes, so Azzy releases the submission. Anastasia gets to her feet and Azzy lifts her up into an airplane spin. Anastasia slides down Azzy's side and brings her down into an armbar.
Azzy quickly rolls over on top of Anastasia and starts laying into her face with elbow smashes until Anastasia releases the hold. Azzy pulls Anastasia to her feet and drops her with a release German suplex.
Azzy is really handling up on Anastasia and the fans are loving it in Las Vegas. Anastasia starts wobbling up to her feet and Azzy grabs a hold of her and starts sending knee strikes into her mid section.
Azzy quickly drops Anastasia with a snap suplex and makes the cover.
One!
Two!
Kickout!
Anastasia slowly gets to her feet and Azzy remains patient with her. Azzy runs the ropes, and as Anastasia is to her feet, Azzy comes running back with a jumping clothesline.
Anastasia wobbles back to her feet and Azzy takes her back down with a hip toss. Azzy then runs the ropes again while Anastasia wobbles back to her feet and Azzy takes her back down yet again, this time with a tilt-a-whirl headscissors takedown.
Anastasia stumbles trying to get back to her feet again and falls into the corner of the ring. Azzy pulls her up in the corner and Anastasia starts fighting back with some hard rights. But then Azzy ducks one and goes behind her before jumping up and taking her down with a Frankensteiner.
Azzy hooks the leg!
One!
Two!
Kickout!
Azurine keeps control for only a little bit longer before Anastasia gains full control and keeps control for pretty much the remainder of the match. The fans are booing a lot during this match.
And eventually Anastasia gives Azzy a Facelift!!!
Crazy enough, it doesn't take long before Azzy gives up, tapping out!!!

Anastasia Baudelaire runs around the ring with her arms in the air, shocked in her win, crying.
Reggie Carter: But you can't just pretend that Azurine Vebbins got her ass kicked there.
Steve McLarson: Did you see how fast she gave up?
Reggie Carter: This match had to have been about ten minutes.
Steve McLarson: But she didn't even last ten seconds in the Facelift.
Reggie Carter: I don't know, Steve. Congratulations to Anastasia Baudelaire nonetheless.
Steve McLarson: Tears of joy from Anastasia Baudelaire who is advancing to Round Two of The Rise of the Phoenix Tournament.
Reggie Carter: And she will either be facing Psycho or Crysyal Zdunich in two weeks.
Steve McLarson: Ouch! That's going to be tough either way, Reggie.
Reggie Carter: I agree with that, Steve.
The cameras cut to a concession area of the arena as Abi Rose is frantically trying to make her way through a sea of fans.
Reggie Carter: We don’t know much of what is going on here, but from what we’ve been told there’s been some sort of altercation with a member of the Mile High roster left injured.
Steve McLarson: It's always something around here.
As Abi is pushing through the crowd of fans who have their phones out trying to record the remnants of the altercation, she notices a heavy set man off to the side with his daughter. The daughter is inconsolably sobbing as the father takes a drink from his soda.
Abi Rose: I’m sorry but did you see what’s going on? We didn’t have cameras in the area and we heard someone was hurt.
Heavy Set Fan: Man, that was nuts. It all happened so quick. First, they were up there. They barely said anything and then bam, he came tumbling down the stairs. I think he even landed on his neck a few times.
Abi Rose looked at the fan bewildered.
Abi Rose: Who was involved? Who was hurt?
Abi Rose turned to see the medical team raising a gurney from the floor. Tied to the gurney was none other than the challenger for tonight’s MHW Ultimate Title Match, El Diablo Blanco. With a glassed over look in his eyes, El Diablo Blanco laid on the gurney with a brace around his neck. Abi Rose rushed over to the scene.
Abi Rose: El D, what happened here? Who attacked you? Was it Leah Aguero?
EMT: Now is not the time for questions. We need to get him to a secure location to further evaluate.
Abi Rose: But he’s scheduled later tonight for the main event.
EMT: Yeah, I doubt that’s going to happen. We don’t even know the extent of his injuries at this time. Now, please. We need to get him out of here.
The EMTs rush El Diablo Blanco off as Abi Rose is no closer to answers. That is, until the sobbing girl tugs at Abi Rose’s shirt.
Little Girl: I know what happened?
Abi Rose leaned down closer to the little girl.
Abi Rose: You know who attacked El Diablo Blanco?
Sheepishly looking down at the ground, the little girl still speaks up.
Little Girl: I saw El D upstairs so I tried to sneak up there. He’s my hero. I just wanted to meet him and wish him luck. I know I shouldn’t have gone up there but I couldn’t help myself.
Abi Rose: No one is faulting you for going somewhere you shouldn’t have been. What did you see?
Little Girl: El D had gone up to the Second City Riot Squad. He… he congratulated them on their Tag Title win and stuck his hand out to shake Mighty J’s hand. That’s when… that’s when…
Abi Rose: That’s when what?
Little Girl: That’s when Diaz broke a bottle over his head. I was so scared I hid behind a poster but… there was a lot of rattling and banging. I don’t know what all happened but then I saw Mighty J shove El D down the stairs. I ran down the stairs to see if he was okay but the police man pulled me away. He didn’t want me to see anything else. Is El D going to be okay? Please, tell me he’s going to be okay?
Abi Rose is a bit misty eyed hearing the little girl speak. She pauses before speaking and swallows a lump sitting in her throat.
Abi Rose: I’m not sure, sweetie, but I’m going to keep an eye on him. I’m heading to the trainer’s room now to get more details. El D is a tough guy, though. He’s been known to bounce back.
Abi Rose stood up and patted the little girl on the head when Ari Bentley runs up to Abi and hands her a microphone.
Ari Bentley: You forgot this. Maybe you can speak to that little girl again and maybe get more details. This is gold.
Abi just stares at Ari with a somewhat disgusted look on her face. She hands the microphone back to Ari.
Abi Rose: Now is not the time. This is serious. We really need to check on El D. He could be seriously hurt.
Abi Rose races off as Ari Bentley just stands there scoffing at Abi’s refusal to do her job.
Reggie Carter: Well this doesn't look good for the main event...
Steve McLarson: I'm sure we can find a suitable replacement.
Anyone is better than El Diablo Blanco.
"We R Who We R" by Ke$ha begins to blast across all the speakers. "Princess" Brittany Williams emerges from behind the curtain wearing a tiara on her head. She smiles as the crowd welcomes her with boos.
Reggie Carter: Well this is a big deal for Brittany Williams. She's only one match deep and here she is in this tournament, due to Bruiser leaving the company.
Steve McLarson: 'Right place, right time' is the saying.
Crystal Zdunich’s personal cameramen snap photos of her daughter as she walks down to the ring without her mother.
Kimberly Brooks: The following match is a Round One Match for The Rise of the Phoenix Tournament, and is for one fall!!! And is for the MHW Hardcore Championship!!! Introducing first... from Hollywood, California... weighing in at 103 pounds..... she is the challenger... "Princess" Brittany Williams!!!
Brittany slides into the ring as she slowly takes her tiara off waiting for her opponent to come out next.
Reggie Carter: Her mother, who as you can see isn't out here with her this week, will be in a Tournament Match later tonight too, as she goes one on one with Psycho.
Steve McLarson: That's going to be a tough match for Crystal Zdunich. But both Crystal and Psycho are stars just ready to shine in the main event scene, so it'll definately be an interesting fight.

“Hell is empty… and The Purge is here…”
The two members of The Purge walk out in riot gear and gas masks, led by Una Quinn as 5FDP's "Mama Said Knock You Out" roars through the arena.
Kimberly Brooks: And her opponent... from New Orleans, Louisiana... weighing in at 168 pounds..... being accompanied to the ring by Zombie and Una Quinn... she is the MHW Hardcore Champion... Katrina "Hairicin" Knox!!!
Nobody acknowledges the fans as they make their slow descent down the ramp, all three looking at the ring, getting into the head of Brittany Williams.
Reggie Carter: Of coarse what makes this match more special than the other four Tournament matches tonight is that the Hardcore Title is on the line here.
Steve McLarson: 24/7 rules; an announcement by Katrina Mack that got mixed reviews.
When The Purge arrive at ringside, the three extend a fist towards one another before Hairicin removes her mask and slides under the ring, where she removes her riot vest and tosses it to the corner.
Reggie Carter: I guess that means anyone could interrupt this match at anytime for that Hardcore Title.
Steve McLarson: If anyone watched ThrowDown two weeks ago, they might want to be careful with that. The Purge have a tight grip on that belt.
Reggie Carter: This is true.
Hairicin paces in her corner like a caged panther waiting for the bell to sound, while a masked Zombie stands cross-armed at ringside while Una roams free on her side of the ring.

The Rise of the Phoenix Tournament
Round One Match

vs
"Princess" Brittany Williams
Hairicin holds out a hand over Williams’s head about six inches above it and snickers before Williams slaps it away. Hairicin brings her hand back at Williams’ eye level, upturned, before curling her fingers back to leave the middle one up before shoving her into the corner. She motions with her hand to come at her.
Williams runs at Hairicin, trying for a cross-body but Hairicin catches her and starts walking around the ring with her in her arms. Williams with a poke to the eye, she hooks Hairicin’s head and shifts her body to bring the champion down with a tornado DDT. Brittany quickly rolls out of the ring and snatches up the timekeeper's chair.
Williams rolls back into the ring and slams the chair on the mat a couple of times to get Hairicin’s attention. Hairicin gets up and as Williams swings, she connects with Hairicin’s knee once… twice… three times dropping Hairicin to one knee, and cracking the chair to the side of Hairicin’s head. Williams with the cover.
One!
Kickout!
And Williams is launched across the ring! Hairicin pulls herself up, the left side of her head and face bloodied up, before tossing the chair at Williams and yelling to her to hit her again. Williams picks up the chair and comes back at Hairicin who punches the chair, sending it back in Williams’ face. Hairicin grabs Williams and runs her back-first into the corner.
Hairicin lands clubbing forearms to Williams’ temple, before stepping back and hitting her with a knife-edge chop to the chest. Hairicin spits on her hand and chops her again before launching into a torrent of chops, the fans counting up to nineteen as Williams’ chest is red and raw, blood vessels broken across her chest. Hairicin goes for number twenty when Princess grabs Hairicin’s hand.
Hairicin gives Princess the death stare, before tackling her into the corner. Hairicin looks around ringside, and yells at Una outside to hand her a kendo stick. With stick in hand, Hairicin swings for the fences at poor Williams full-force across the stomach. Hairicin pulls Williams out of the corner and lays a boot on her chest.
One!
Two! Kickout!
Williams gets a shoulder up and Hairicin slowly shakes her head. Hairicin reaches down to pick her up and Williams rolls her up in The Most Electrifying Move In All Of Sports Entertainment.
One!
Two!
.....
Hairicin gets out and is very angry!!
Williams using her speed to stick and move with her attacks adding to Hairicin’s frustration when a woman in riot gear and gas mask comes through the crowd. The crowd gets loud as the woman steps into the ring, grabs Williams from behind and chokeslams her!
The woman pulls off her mask and removes her gear to reveal a rather large tattooed brunette with MANEATER tattooed across her stomach. The newest member of The Purge as Una Quinn applauds outside the ring.
The woman looks at Hairicin and gives her a thumbs up before exiting the ring. Hairicin picks up Williams and gives her the Anachain!!!
One!

Match Length: 04:01
Reggie Carter: Who the hell was that?!
Steve McLarson: Is that a new member of The Purge?
5FDP's "Mama Said Knock You Out" begins playing throughout the arena.
Kimberly Brooks: And the winner of this match, advancing to Round Two of The Rise of the Phoenix Tournament, and STILL MHW Hardcore Champion... Katrina "Hairicin" Knox!!!
Hairicin rolls out of the ring as Una Quinn hands her the Hardcore Championship.
Reggie Carter: She does it again.
Steve McLarson: The most dominant Hardcore Champion in MHW history.
As Hairicin celebrates at ringside, Chris Mosh appears behind her with a steel chair, and smashes it across her back!!
Reggie Carter: What the hell?!
Steve McLarson: If at first you don't succeed, dust yourself and try again!
Zombie yanks the chair out of Mosh's hand and then swings it at him, but he falls backwards and out of the way before it can connect with him.
Reggie Carter: Oh shit!
Steve McLarson: You better run, young man.
Mosh rolls away and then gets to his feet, holding his hands up pleading to Zombie to not hit him. Zombie gives him that look, and Mosh power walks to the back.
Reggie Carter: You might be right, Steve. As long as she has The Purge in her corner, no one is going to take that belt.
Steve McLarson: And what about this new woman? She looks tough...
The mysterious figure that has been taking in MHW operations and events was seen again but in a more private area of the backstage area. His back is facing the camera while looking at the board that had the three photos that he had placed a few weeks prior. He shook his head in disappointment as his eyes focused on the photo of Becca "Bruiser" Maguire.
Mysterious Man: Wrestling, like in life, gives us a swerve and we must change the plans we are making.
The man takes the photo of Bruiser and brings it to a garbage can before bringing out a lighter. He focuses the lighter under the photo and causes the photo to burn before he drops it into the can. The man watches the photo burn perpetually in the can for some time before he turns away from it.
Mysterious Man: Bruiser has proved in her actions in leaving that she is not worthy of my time. She was vocal in making her place in this place and how to make the renewal of this company. This small bump in the road for her has caused her to run away and a coward is someone who is not worth my attention.
The man shakes his head at the events that caused him to change his plans, but the wheels were turning in his head after an idea came to his mind. He looked at the other 2 photos that were still on the board.
Mysterious Man: Do not worry Gabriel and Leah, I have not forgotten about you two. I will continue to keep an eye on both of you and neither one of you will know when I will reveal myself, or plans to you and the world.
The mysterious man looks at the empty spot on the board and doesn't like that the spot is open on his board. He pulls out a photo and tacks it in the spot that Bruiser's photo used to be as his mind continues to work.
