Ray Hudson: Waddup Mile High Club!! The MHW originals are back in the booth!
Wavy Crockett: It feels good too...
Ray Hudson: I'm Ray Hudson, and I'm joined by my boy, Wavy Crockett.
Wavy Crockett: Naw, we ain't boys.
Ray Hudson: Haha. Whatever. We are live in New York freaking City and we got an action packed night tonight. We are inside Madison Square Garden!! You'd think this was a Pay-Per View event.
Wavy Crockett: Last Man Standing Match! Steel Cage Match! Three Championships on the line! Both Round Two Matches in this Rise of the Phoenix Tournament! Yeah... it's real tonight!
Ray Hudson: What you think about all the people hating on you after you made the announcement you were returning to commentary?
Wavy Crockett: Racism.
Ray Hudson: What?
Wavy Crockett: You heard me.
Wendy "Zombie" Pelegrini (13-12)
vs
Azurine Vebbins (20-21)
vs
Azurine Vebbins (20-21)
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: The following match is for one fall!!! Introducing first... 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).
Ray Hudson: Now this is something special, Wavy. Let us not forget the lil rivalry between Azzy and Zombie over the ThrowDown Championship back in 2019.
Wavy Crockett: Yezzir! Azzy Azz came into Season Two with the Championship, and Zombie debuted with Season Two kicking ass and taking names. She was gunning for that ThrowDown Title.
Ray Hudson: And ironically enough, Zombie will be one of the challengers for the ThrowDown Title in two weeks.
Wavy Crockett: She might win that bit back. I've been loving this Purge group.
Upon entering the eastern ring apron, Azzy glides between the bottom and middle ropes before awaiting her next opponent.
Ray Hudson: Well, how do you feel about Azurine Vebbins as of late?
Wavy Crockett: She been catching them L's. But that ass still look real nice though.
Ray Hudson: Well she's definately been getting knocked on that nice ass a lot lately.
Wavy Crockett: Mos def.

“Hell is empty… and The Purge is here…”
The four 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 157 pounds..... being accompanied to the ring by her fellow Purge members... Wendy "Zombie" Pellegrini!!!
Nobody acknowledges the fans as they make their slow descent down the ramp, all four looking at the ring, trying to get into the head of Azurine Vebbins.
Ray Hudson: These women are rough. The carnage they have been leaving in that ring is incredible.
Wavy Crockett: Man straight up! They've literally been sending people running for the door trying to escape MHW. Muhfuckaz coming from MMA and running back to MMA. Muhfuckaz just straight leaving MHW behind to go to an easier wrestling company where they can be protected.
Ray Hudson: Right. And it's not MHW. It's the Purge. The Purge don't give a fuck. They get in that ring and they destroy. Folks can't can't that.
Wavy Crockett: Man look, Katrina Mack's fine ass announced that the Hardcore Title would be defended under 24/7 rules. That was over a month ago. How many times has Hairicin lost the belt?
When The Purge arrive at ringside, the four extend a fist towards one another before Zombie removes her mask and slides under the ring, where she removes her riot vest and tosses it to the corner.
Ray Hudson: A lot of folks thought we were about to see the Championship thrown around like a hot potato. But Katrina Knox has been holding onto that belt with a tight grip. And with Zombie and now Maneater standing in front of her?
Wavy Crockett: But look though, Zombie done got kind of thick since the last time I was here.
Ray Hudson: Please don't hit on her, Wavy. That woman will choke your lil ass out.
Wavy Crockett: And then pile me up on Myzooni and Justice Cross? I can't get mad at that.
Zombie paces in her corner like a caged panther waiting for the bell to sound, while masked Hairicin and Maneater stand cross-armed at ringside while Una roams free on her side of the ring.

Zombie quickly approaches Azzy and starts yelling at her, and it seemed as if she was telling Azzy to hit her in the face. She was giving Azzy a chance to get the first shot. But Azzy seemed to not be interested, which seemed to piss Zombie off.
Zombie nailed Azzy with a hard right, causing her to fall back first into the corner. And then Zombie quickly grabbed the ropes and started stomping Azzy down into the corner, while the ref was trying to pull Zombie away.
Azzy was on her ass in the corner when Zombie stopped and circled the ring, taking in the boos from the crowd. Azzy pulled herself up and as soon as she took a step forward, Zombie was on her, grabbing her arm and pulling her down into Lex Break Your Arm!!!
Azzy tapped out shortly after...

Ray Hudson: Man...
Wavy Crockett: Zombie is a beast.
Zombie pulled on Azzy's arm for a few more seconds before letting go as 5FDP's "Mama Said Knock You Out" plays throughout the arena.
Kimberly Brooks: And the winner of this match... Wendy "Zombie" Pellegrini!!!
Zombie paces the ring looking down at Azzy in disgust.
Ray Hudson: Azurine Vebbins has been having a rough time in MHW this season, but man...
Wavy Crockett: I'm pretty sure that match didn't even make it through the first minute.
Ray Hudson: Yeah, that was definately less than sixty seconds. Man...
Wavy Crockett: The Purge continue to dominate, and Azurine Vebbins continues to lose. If she's unfocused because she having relationship problems, I'll give her some chocolate. That's on God!
Ray Hudson: I doubt she's interested in your chocolate, Wavy. But above all else, she needs to leave her interests at home and get in that ring and do what we remember her doing.
Wavy Crockett: Naw, she needs to holla at your boy.
Ray Hudson: Congratulations, Zombie. And good luck in two weeks, even though you obviously won't need it.
Wavy Crockett: So you saying good luck to Mad Dog?
Ray Hudson: Well speaking of Mad Dog, even though he was booked at all five events of The Good Time Tour recently, he was not booked on tonight's show due to concern of a small injury from Game Over Penitentiary. I'm guessing with this being live TV, they wanted to avoid any mistakes.
Wavy Crockett: That doesn't make any sense.
Ray Hudson: Regardless, they didn't book him, as we saw on the card posted two weeks ago. But he is obviously going to be fine and he will be defending his ThrowDown Championship in two weeks in a Triple Threat Match.
Wavy Crockett: And against some big names.
Ray Hudson: Yes, and Zombie here is one of them. Her Shieldmaiden sister Bandit will be the other challenger.
Wavy Crockett: That's some big shit right there.
Ray Hudson: As for an update on Solomon Cain, we have not been given much information on his arrest, but we do know he was released early in the same week he was arrested.
Wavy Crockett: So did he really kill those women?
Ray Hudson: Well, I hope not...
Wavy Crockett: I guess he white, so he can get away with it.
All of a sudden Zombie's music cuts off as she stares down at the middle of the ring, confused. Her confusion slowly grows into disgust.
Ray Hudson: What's going on here?
The camera focuses on an NYPD badge laying in the middle of the ring.
Wavy Crockett: That wasn't in there a minute ago. Did one of the Police Officers here tonight quit their job?
Ray Hudson: I don't think that's what that badge is about...
Wavy Crockett: What could it be about?
Ray Hudson: Wendy Pellegrini knows, and it's not cool at all...
The cameras are in front of the parking garage entrance, and it only takes a few seconds before we hear the roaring of a motorcycle and see the single headlight coming straight towards the camera.
Wavy Crockett: What we got going on out here, Ray?
The motorcycle parks to the side of the camera, as we keep it in view and see a woman put the kickstand down and step off. The woman is wearing the MHW Phoenix Championship around her waist.
Ray Hudson: Looks like Bullet has arrived to Madison Square Garden.
Wavy Crockett: I be forgetting they don't really got no tardy policy around here.
Bullet takes the helmet off of her head and sets it on the back of the bike before straightening her Chanpionship belt around her waist.
Alex "Bullet" Carbajal: Here we are. New York City. Madison Square Garden. Episode treinta y ocho.
Bullet looks around with a smile on her face, as if she can hear the cheers from inside the arena.
Alex "Bullet" Carbajal: I won this Championship at the Spectacular for my second time, defeating you, Mister Blanco. It was an honor to share the ring with you.
Bullet nods her head.
Alex "Bullet" Carbajal: Tonight you get your rematch, and I know it will be a challenge. I know you will take me to the limit. That's what drives me.
Bullet looks to be full of passion and excitement.
Alex "Bullet" Carbajal: What happened to you at Game Over was unfortunate. You should know you will not have to deal with those dirty tactics stepping into the ring with me. It will only be me and you.
Bullet points at the camera and then to herself.
Alex "Bullet" Carbajal: The flight of the Firebird will not come to an end tonight, Brother.
Bullet shakes her head.
Alex "Bullet" Carbajal: No sir...
Bullet looks down at the Championship around her waist.
Alex "Bullet" Carbajal: It has only begun.
Bullet looks deep into the camera, raising her right hand in a gun shape, pointing directly into the camera.
Alex "Bullet" Carbajal: Bang.
Emily Mack: You sure he'll be okay?
Emily Mack is shown in her office, pacing the room worried, with her cell phone to her ear.
Emily Mack: Tell Chris I'm thinking about him, and that he's one tough hombre.
"Simply Scandalous" Stephanie Sullivan: Excuse me.
Stephanie Sullivan can be seen entering the office, looking straight at the new General Manager of ThrowDown. Emily Mack ends her phone call and looks back at Steph.
Emily Mack: What can I help you with?
"Simply Scandalous" Stephanie Sullivan: Look Emily, you seem like a reasonable human being. I was added to a Phoenix Championship Match way back at Mile High Spectacular, and then I was taken out by your crazy mother.
Emily looks a bit annoyed by all the people she's having to deal with already.
"Simply Scandalous" Stephanie Sullivan: I still, to this day, never got my Phoenix Championship Match. What are you going to do about it?
Emily Mack: You never should've gotten a Phoenix Championship Match. So I'm going to do nothing. It all worked out the way it should have.
"Simply Scandalous" Stephanie Sullivan: Excuse me! I'm practically your step mother. You will not talk to me like that!
Emily Mack: No you're not, Stephanie.
Steph takes a step towards Emily and the General Manager holds her hand out to stop her.
Emily Mack: Look... you did good on AMMO tonight. Maybe that's the right place for you.
Steph rolls her eyes.
"Simply Scandalous" Stephanie Sullivan: You know.... you're just like your mother...
Steph turns around and starts to leave the office, but she stops at the door and looks over her shoulder with an evil grin.
"Simply Scandalous" Stephanie Sullivan: Just wait until I tell your daddy...
Steph leaves the office and Emily walks around her desk and sits down.
Emily Mack: You do that, Stephanie. You do that...
Emily buries her face into her desk as the cameras fade to the next scene.
Ray Hudson: So what you think about Emily Falls running ThrowDown?
Wavy Crockett: Emily Mack, Ray. And as long as she don't get to throwing up all over the office, I think she'll do fine...

"The Burning Rose" Crystal Zdunich (3-2)

Anastasia Baudelaire (3-6)
Round Two Match
"The Burning Rose" Crystal Zdunich (3-2)
vs
Anastasia Baudelaire (3-6)
"Kitoko" by Eva hits the sound system, as Anastasia Baudelaire comes through the curtains.
Kimberly Brooks: The following match is a Round Two Match in The Rise of the Phoenix Tournament, and is for one fall!!! Introducing first... from Paris, France... weighing in at 136 pounds..... being accompanied to the ring by Claude Abreo... Anastasia Baudelaire!!!
Anastasia walks down the ramp with her nose up with Claude Abreo following her. Anastasia goes onto the ring apron and asks Claude Abreo to hold the ropes open so she could get in, which he does. She walks around the ring with her arms high above her head smiling.
Ray Hudson: Anastasia Baudelaire has racked up a few wins lately. You gotta hate her personality, but you gotta appreciate her drive. She came in, ate some L's, kept fighting, and look at her now.
Wavy Crockett: Yeah, no one expected her to advance to Round Two. And to say she beat Azurine Vebbins to get here?
Ray Hudson: Well, let's take a look at the current bracket for this Tournament, shall we?
Wavy Crockett: Shit looking real interesting. The new era is rising, Ray.
The entire arena fades to black as we are left in nothing but darkness. All of a sudden Crystal's voice can be heard all throughout the speaker systems.
"YOUR SMILE MAKES MY HEART EXPLODE... THANK YOU FOR WAKING ME UP!!!!"
As soon as that is said explosions can be heard going off as we are treated to some flame pyros.
Ray Hudson: This is the one you were telling me about, Wavy?
Wavy Crockett: Yezzir! Watch how fine this bit is. She's gon be my lil caramel swirl. Trust that!
"Smile Bomb" by 17thekid plays across the speakers and it is at that moment when the crimson red haired "Burning Rose" Crystal Zdunich walks from the curtains. She is accompanied by her wife Seleana Zdunich, and the two of them make their way to the ring.
Kimberly Brooks: And her opponent... from Los Angeles, California... weighing in at 115 pounds..... "Burning Rose" Crystal Zdunich!!!
Crystal is focused as she walks to the ring with a purpose. She however slaps the outstretched hands of fans along the way. She runs up the stairs and walks to the middle of the apron. She flicks her hair before she drops down into a split.
Ray Hudson: You introduce yourself yet?
Wavy Crockett: Naw. But I work here again. She's as good as mine.
Ray Hudson: And you're fully aware that that lil snowbunny over there is her wife?
Wavy Crockett: You know what I call that, Ray? Two for the price of one, big homie.
Ray Hudson: I'm sure the viewers at home missed you.
Wavy Crockett: Fuck them people.
Crystal slides into the ring and as soon as she is inside she kips up to her feet. She tosses her Shoto inspired hoodie towards her wife as she awaits the start of the match. Seleana cheers for her wife as her wife is locked in a trance.
Ray Hudson: Well let's see who advances to the Final Round. Will it be the lady who got the most votes in the poll, or the chick who's been on a roll lately?

Match Official: Regina Ball
In an unexpected start to this match, Crystal Zdunich extends her hand for Anastasia Baudelaire to shake. Mixed reactions come from the New York City crowd as Anastasia looks around Madison Square Garden to see if everyone sees what she sees.
Anastasia slightly laughs and then slaps the back of Crystal's hand away. Then as Crystal looks at her disappointed, Anastasia slaps the taste out of Crystal's mouth. Anastasia yells at Crystal that she is fake.
Crystal takes in a deep breath and then grabs Anastasia by the hair and gives her a hair toss across the ring. As soon as Anastasia got to her feet, Crystal stayed on her.
The match was pretty even. But Anastasia made the mistakes of stopping to pose for the crowd, giving Crystal time to get back control of the match a few times.
Crystal did some impressive high flying and lucha moves to the French supermodel, wowing the crowd. And before you knew it, Crystal hit Anastasia with Flame On and pinned her opponent for the three count!!!

Ray Hudson: Crystal Zdunich is going to the Final Round!
Wavy Crockett: My baby!
"Smile Bomb" by 17thekid plays throughout the arena.
Kimberly Brooks: And the winner of this match, advancing to the Final Round of The Rise of the Phoenix Tournament... "The Burning Rose" Crystal Zdunich!!!
Crystal Zduinich celebrated her victory in the ring, while Anastasia who had rolled out of the ring, sits against the barricade rubbing her lower back, looking into the ring at Crystal with disgust.
Ray Hudson: The question is who will she face? Will it be Katrina "Hairicin" Knox or Talia Areano?
Wavy Crockett: I hope it's not Talia Areano. I'll be stuck between a rock and hard place. I'm in love with both of those women...
Ray Hudson: This is why it was so easy for Rob to fire you the first time. You're a pervert.
Wavy Crockett: Rob would be a hypocrite if that's why he fired me.
Ray Hudson: I didn't say it was why. I said it made it easy.
The cameras reveal that "Princess" Brittany Williams is standing on the stage area with a black woman in a Kimono, smoking a cigarette.
Wavy Crockett: Who the hell is that with Brittany Williams?
Ray Hudson: I believe that's her auntie.
Wavy Crockett: Haha. You crazy.
Ray Hudson: No I'm serious. If I remember rightly, her name is Jennifer Williams.
Wavy Crockett: Oh... you for real...
Crystal Zdunich is standing inside the ring, looking confused and disappointed all at the same time.
Ray Hudson: Crystal seems to be taken by surprise by this.
Wavy Crockett: So Brittany is disrespecting her momz?
Princess waves to her mother before she leaves with the woman through the curtains.
Ray Hudson: I think something is up here for sure.
Wavy Crockett: Damn. The Macks step off TV, and then this family comes along and brings all their drama on TV?
Ray Hudson: That appears to be what's unraveling here...
Wavy Crockett: I love it!
The mysterious figure we've been seeing every other week is seen in the backstage area looking at the board that he placed the 3 photos on. He knew people would be having a lot of questions why he was at Mile High Wrestling and why he had chosen the three people whose photos are on the board.
Ray Hudson: Well here's this mysterious man who keeps appearing on MHW programming every other week.
Wavy Crockett: Who you think he is? And why you think he tryna fight some real playas to this game?
Ray Hudson: I honestly don't know.
The mysterious man kept silent for some time while his mind continued to spin its wheels and the plans began to build against his targets. The figure finally turned to face the camera but kept his face obscured in the shadows.
Mysterious Man: I understand that many of you have been trying to understand who I am and why I am here ever since my arrival here in Mile High Wrestling. Do not worry, I will give the answers to your questions in all due time but now is not the time to answer them. The questions I will give answers are the reasons why I am targetting these three people on the board.
The man knew he could hear the grumbles and groans from the people watching at home but it was his nature to keep people in suspense. He returned to the photos and pulled out a laser pointer. He clicked the light to the current Ultimate Champion, Leah Aguero.
Mysterious Man: The current Ultimate Champion has made quite a name for herself since the re-opening of the company and made it to the top. Leah calls herself the War Queen and yes she has earned that moniker but as a leader and a top Champion in a company; she should know that it would mark her as a major target for anyone who knows who to go after and when. She will now learn what it means to be a target by an unknown entity. But I don't know if you are the true target or not.
The man paused as he changed the target of the laser pointer to Gabriel Ohio. He thought of the emotionally dark member of the MHW roster and how he fits into the world of the promotion before he is heard.
Mysterious Man: Mr. Ohio, you are a very.... interesting individual indeed. You have had your own dealings in MHW since the company reopening, including a name to the very small list of people who actually earned a victory against Skabz. Not everyone is so fortunate to gain a pin against him and Gabriel should take it in for what he can. I admire Gabriel's talent but he doesn't know when he will tangle against someone who can blend well with his style and use his style against him. I see how he wears his heart on his sleeve and his emotions can make him a marked man for anyone who knows how to manipulate those dark emotions against him. Keep an eye open Mr. Ohio or you will never know if I will come after you when you least expect it.
The figure landed to the final photo on the board with the laser pointer before he placed the pointer into his pocket.
Mysterious Man: I admit that Ripley was not part of my original trifeca of targets but when Bruiser took her leave of MHW like the coward that she was, I must change my plans for my targets. Ripley made his return to MHW, surprising everyone who follows the company and making his fans quite happy. The history this very ordinairy man has in MHW is quite splashy being the first ever holder of the Ammo Title. Some may just allow him to re-intigrate himself within Mile High Wrestling with ease but it should not be allowed to happen with someone with that type of history. Remember this Ripley, I will keep an eye on you and see what will happen with you for some time.
The man paused as he turned away from the board and then to the camera again.
Mysterious Man: Leah, Gabriel, Ripley; sleep with one eye open as none of you will know who I will come after in the long run.
Ray Hudson: Welcome back to ThrowDown, folks! Tonight's episode is presented to you by EFedder. You can be on any social media, but if you're not on EFedder, what are you even efedding for?
Wavy Crockett: What the hell is efedding?
Ray Hudson: I don't know. That's what Rob just told me to say in my headset.
Wavy Crockett: Well, I got an EFedder and I don't think I efed. Man... what if all this isn't real? What if this is all a pretend wrestling company and none of us actually exist...?
Ray Hudson: Tonight's show is also brought to you by Designs By Valkyrie. You want a banner made for your business, your likeness, whatever whatever, Valkyrie will make you something real dope. That's a bet. I like her work.
Wavy Crockett: What if all of us are just thoughts in Robert Mack's head?
Ray Hudson: And Splat! It's the network we are on and is full of so much other content. It's an amazing network of entertainment, and you should check out everything.
Wavy Crockett: What if that's all pretend too? Bruh... Ray.... my head just exploded into a million thoughts. I'm so lost right now...

The four 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: The following match is a Round Two Match in The Rise of the Phoenix Tournament, and is for one fall!!! And is for the MHW Hardcore Championship!!! Introducing first... from New Orleans, Louisiana... weighing in at 168 pounds..... being accompanied to the ring by her fellow members of The Purge... she is the MHW Hardcore Champion... Katrina "Hairicin" Knox!!!
Nobody acknowledges the fans as they make their slow descent down the ramp, all four looking at the ring.
Ray Hudson: You done trippin about that efed bullshit?
Wavy Crockett: Man whatever, that shit fucked my head up.
Ray Hudson: Yeah yeah, it messed my head up too. Just not in the same way. Anyways, we saw Zombie in action earlier. Now it's time for Hairicin to do her thing.
Wavy Crockett: The most dominant Champion in MHW. Or at least in Robert's thoughts. I don't even know anymore.
Ray Hudson: Please just stop that crazy talk, Wavy.
When The Purge arrive at ringside, the four 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.
Wavy Crockett: Well when all of this just stops and we all vanish into thin air, just remember... I figured it out first.
Ray Hudson: If I vanished into thin air, how would I be able to remember you saying that?
Wavy Crockett: Exactly...
Ray Hudson: Wait... what?
Wavy Crockett: Mmhmm...
Hairicin paces in her corner like a caged panther waiting for the bell to sound, while masked Zombie and Maneater stand cross-armed at ringside while Una roams free on her side of the ring.
Ray Hudson: We got a job to do, David. Talia Areano has a chance to become a double champion here.
Wavy Crockett: You think she can defeat Hairicin?
Ray Hudson: She's been on a roll as of late.
"Say You Will" by Evanescence is heard on the sound system. Talia Areano comes out from behind the curtain wearing a leather jacket. When she gets to the ramp, shower fireworks reign down on her.
Kimberly Brooks: And her opponent... from Buenos Aires, Argentina... weighing in at 125 pounds..... she is the challenger... 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.
Wavy Crockett: Well here she comes. Looking as beautiful as ever.
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.
Ray Hudson: This is our Television Champion of Mile High AMMO. And like I mentioned, if she wins this match she will also be holding the MHW Hardcore Championship.
Wavy Crockett: And if she wins the whole tournament, she could challenge for a third belt.
Ray Hudson: She'd out-do ol' Skrabz if she held three belts at once.
Wavy Crockett: That should be all the motivation to take Katrina Knox down here.
Ray Hudson: But as we continue to point out, The Purge is on top of the world right now.
Talia gets off the ropes and walks to one side of the ring and waits for the official to start the match.

Talia and Hairicin started the match face to face, Talia only having to look up a few inches. And Hairicin really started the match by placing her palm on Talia'a forehead and pushing her away, causing boos from the crowd.
Talia felt disrespected also and started talking trash to Hairicin, getting right back in her face as Hairicin just stared a hole through Talia, clenching her jaw, looking very intimidating. It almost made you scared for Talia.
Hairicin went for a hard standing clothesline, but Talia ducked under and as both women turned back around to each other, Talia speared her to the mat and the fans cheered the AMMO champ on.
Hairicin definately did a lot of dominating in this match, throwing Talia Areano around. Talia flew around the ring, wowing all of her fans per usual. But Katrina Knox was just as quick, keeping up with the much physically smaller superstar.
Talia attempted to become the new Hardcore Champion by going for Slice of Heaven!!!
But Hairicin literally held her upside down and shifted her right into her Anachain, and hooked the leg for the three count!!!

The rest of The Purge celebrate in the ring with Katrina "Hairicin" Knox who holds her Hardcore Champioship high in the air.
Ray Hudson: Man, The Purge really run this shit, don't they?
Wavy Crockett: I know you see em.
Ray Hudson: The moment I saw Katrina Mack announce the new rules to that belt, I figured we were gonna see five new Champions on the next ThrowDown. Hairicin hasn't lost that belt yet. And people have come for it.
Wavy Crockett: And my boo Talia been doing her thing too lately. Hairicin just ran through Talia's momentum like boom bamn.
Ray Hudson: And I'm just waiting on someone to run out here and try to take that Hardcore Title.
Wavy Crockett: Ain't nobody coming, Ray. Why would they? They ain't bout to get nothing but an ass whoopin'.
Ray Hudson: I can't say you lieing...
We see Ari Bentley standing by with a mic in hand, smiling those pearly whites.
Ari Bentley: Oh my God y'all! I am super excited to tell you I am currently standing by with the biggest superstar in MHW..... Skrabz!!
The camera zooms out a bit to show she is indeed standing by with Skrabal Stanzas.
Ari Bentley: Mr. Skrabz... you finally won the opportunity to fight for the Championship you never lost. How does it feel right now?
Skrabz: Whatchu expect me to say to that? You want me to say it feel right, am I s'posed to say it feel good?... Coz it feel like a buncha bullshit!... Won the opportunity, earned my shot... Fam I was owed the shit the second I signed the dotted line an' dontchu get it twisted. But why dontchu run go ask the rest of 'em how it feel now they can mark it in they calendars.

Ask 'em all how it feel to know that come Black Magic man like Skrabz gonna be walkin' out wit' the big strap.
Ari Bentley: Well... before you even get to Black Magic, tonight you will go one on one with the man who defeated you at Mile High Spectacular III. Is this a match you were hoping for?
Skrabz: Nah, you musta mistook me for somebody else coz man like Skrabz ain't do hope, an' if you askin' if this be the match I wanted then I'mma tell you there ain't never been a match I ain't want.

Ari Bentley: With both Gabriel Ohio and Leah Aguero once both being a part of the Coven, are you at all worried that this match may be a set up to take you out before you even get your Ultimate Championship Match?
Skrabz: Gyal you jus' stay mistakin' me for somebody else innit... Man like Skrabz ain't do worried either.

Ari Bentley: I know that's right! Thank you, Skrabz. And..... umm.... what are you up to after the show tonight?
Skrabz raises an eyebrow at Ari, before shaking his head and walking away. Ari looks shocked, as the scene fades.

We return from commercials to see Abi Rose standing by with a mic in hand.
Abi Rose: Ladies and gentlemen... the Backyard Phenom... my friend... your friend... El Diablo Blanco.
The camera zooms out a bit to reveal she is indeed standing with El Diablo Blanco.
Abi Rose: Two weeks ago, the whole world was screwed out of the biggest moment in MHW history, by Jansen Myrrh. You invited her to appear tonight to meet you face to face, and we all found out that she "wasn't offered enough money" to show up. What are your thoughts?
El Diablo Blanco: Let me tell you something, Sister. I was gutted when I came up short in my quest for the MHW Ultimate Title. I came up with every excuse in the book to blame myself for not overcoming the odds that I knew were going to be placed before me. Still, not a day goes by that I’m not reminded by someone that Jansen Myrrh cost me that match. They truly believe had Ms. Myrrh not have gotten involved that El D would be riding high as the champion right now. Unfortunately, we were robbed of that truth. Now, I wanted to clear the air. I wanted to talk with Ms. Myrrh so that we can air whatever grievances she has for getting involved in my match and be done with it. She would have been here as a guest of mine; on my dime. She said no. Mr. Mack offered up more money. She still said no. Jansen Myrrh, I’m asking you once again, meet me in that ring so we can work this out in front of everyone. No back door talk, no he said she said, just you and I, Sister, in two weeks at Throwdown so we can move past all this.
Abi Rose: Well.. while you were screwed out of the Ultimate Championship, tonight you will finally get your rematch for the Phoenix Championship. How does that feel?
El Diablo Blanco: As I’ve stated before, there are many out there that don’t think I deserve this shot, Sister. They believe this is a consolation prize for getting shafted in my Ultimate Title match. They don’t realize that MHW offers a rematch clause. When I was Phoenix Champion previously, I said it was an honor, Sister, and later tonight I’ve got a chance to share the spotlight with Bullet and become a two-time Phoenix Champion; much in the same vein as Bullet. I’m excited to get back in the ring with Ms. Carbajal tonight. It’s going to be magic.
Abi Rose: Speaking of MAGIC, I gotta ask; who are you rooting for at Black MAGIC, between the War Queen and Skrabz?
El Diablo Blanco: As a fan, I can’t say I’m rooting for one more than the other, Sister. They are both amazing talents that deserve the spotlight. The match will no doubt be epic. It’s one we’ve been waiting a long time for. On a personal level, I’d like nothing more than to work my way back up to contention and go toe to toe with either competitor. I’ve got history with both participants and not a good one at that, Sister. Skrabz verbally assaulted my ninos. The War Queen tried time and time again to end my career. If I meet either again down the line, they better be ready to see another side of good ol El D. Diggit?!
Abi Rose: Well thank you, my friend. And I believe I speak for everyone when I say we are all very much looking forward to that Phoenix Championship Match tonight.
Ray Hudson: That man is an inspiration.

Steel Cage Match
Second City Riot Squad© (2-0)
vs
The Wild Hunt (4-3)
With the lights dimmed, the Shieldmaiden’s motto, “Hell is empty and the Maidens are here!” comes up on the titantron as “Bury Me With My Guns On” by Bobaflex blasts out of the PA system. Killer Carter then storms out onto the stage and stops before turning around and stretching out her arms, displaying the devil’s horns with her hands, as Jackie “Bandit” Layton comes out, almost skipping as she does a lap around Killer before the behemoth turns around.
Kimberly Brooks: The following match is a Steel Cage Match for the MHW Tag Team Championships!!! Introducing first... from New Orleans, Louisiana... weighing in at a combined weight of 280 pounds..... the team of Jackie "Bandit" Layton and Killer Carter... they are The challengers... The Wild Hunt!!!
The two Shieldmaidens then begin to make their way down the ramp, Killer storming down it while Bandit skips and bounces her way down. Once they reach the ring, they both waste little time rolling and sliding under the bottom rope and Bandit pops up onto the second turnbuckles and raises her hands in the air while Killer marches to the center of the ring and outstretches her arms displaying the devil’s horns with her hands again.
Wavy Crockett: Good to see the Killer is alive and well.
Ray Hudson: That was definately quite the beating that she endured at Game Over, two weeks ago.
Wavy Crockett: Man, Solomon Cain is a monster.
Bandit then hops down from the turnbuckles and walks over to Killer and the two begin to talk strategy as “Bury Me With My Guns On” fades out.
Ray Hudson: The Wild Hunt is 0-2 against the Second City Riot Squad. Can The Wild Hunt finally take the Queendom down?
Wavy Crockett: I don't know, man.
The arena falls black. Suddenly, Rage Against the Machine’s “Killing in the Name” echoes throughout the Magness Arena.
Killing in the name of

Two spotlights hit the top of the stage revealing Jed Coffey and Layla Diaz standing opposite one another, wearing their MHW Tag Team Championships. The fans are booing as The Second City Riot Squad stand tall.
Kimberly Brooks: And their opponents... residing in Chicago, Illinois... weighing in at a combined weight of 389 pounds..... the team of Jed Coffey and Layla Diaz... they are the MHW Tag Team Champions... Second City Riot Squad!!!
The duo make their way down the ramp towards the ring. They get on the apron and climb into the ring.
Ray Hudson: I'm surprised to not see the Ultimate Champion out here with them...
Wavy Crockett: Maybe at this point she trusts they can do it on there own.
Ray Hudson: But I mean, she doesn't have a match tonight, and you know she likes the spotlight.
Wavy Crockett: Maybe you had her all wrong this whole time.
Ray Hudson: Yeah, I doubt that very seriously.
Both Layla Diaz and Jed Coffey look out at the masses as they remove their MHW Tag Team Titles and hold them up high as the Steel Cage lowers around them.
Wavy Crockett: This Steel Cage Match is going to be epic.
Ray Hudson: It's time to see who the greatest Tag Team in MHW is.

Killer quickly charged Jed and started laying into him with hard forearms. Layla started yelling at Jed and Bandit charged her, taking her down with a missile dropkick to the back of the head.
Killer seemed to be even more intense than usual during this match, usually getting the better of Jed. Layla however was evenly matched as she fought around with Bandit. The commentators claimed that it was possible that Cain's assault on Killer two weeks ago brought a more intense fire out of her tonight.
Layla and Bandit got some pretty awesome high spots in, using the cage in many ways, wowing the audience. Killer used a lot more technical wrestling skills in this match than we were used to seeing her use in MHW.
Killer would go after Layla too, and Bandit and Killer double teamed Layla for a while, really wearing down the lucha superstar.
Jed would finally get some control on Killer when he got his hands back on her, ramming her face into the side of the cage multiple times. Jed just started throwing Killer around and it seemed as if Killer maybe wore herself out early on in the match.
But then we had to think twice once Killer started fighting back against Jed. Until just as she was going to Spear Jed, as she sprinted towards him Layla came out of nowhere from the side with a dropkick to her skull stopping her dead in her tracks.
These two teams put on an exciting Steel Cage Match, and a few mistakes made the match go on longer. For example, just when it looked like Layla was going to exit the cage, making it to the top instead of climbing out, she jumped off onto Killer with a wicked Hurricanrana!!!
This would keep both Layla and Killer down for basically the remainder of the match, leaving Jed and Bandit to fight to a finish. But eventually Jed would drop Bandit with Schmuck's Up, Schmuck's Down!!!
Jed would rest a moment before telling the ref to open the cage door. He slowly exited the ring and was yelling for Layla to come on. Layla slowly crawled to the door, and literally just as her body slid slowly off the apron to the concrete floor, Killer was just starting to move.
Match Length: 13:51

Rage Against the Machine’s “Killing in the Name” begins playing throughout the arena.
Kimberly Brooks: And the winners of this match, and STILL MHW Tag Team Champions... Second City Riot Squad!!!
Second City Riot Squad got their Tag Team Titles and celebrated up the ramp, while the Steel Cage rose. Killer was on one knee looking at the Champs with disgust in her face.
Ray Hudson: It's just crazy to me how these guys got a match with The Wild Hunt and defeated them, got a Tag Title shot in only their second match and won the gold, and then tonight they have erased all doubt.
Wavy Crockett: Superstars like this don't come too often. We've seen Ripley and Chris Mosh with the Tag Gold, and we've seen Da Brix City Boyz, but it wasn't long after each time that the Shieldmaidens got their Gold back. I think the Shieldmaidens have met their match.
Ray Hudson: The Shieldmaidens are one of the biggest brands in MHW history, but their one downside is not acknowledging those outside of their circle. I think that might have bit them in the ass tonight. You don't have to like someone to take them serious. As much as I hate who Layla Diaz and Jed Coffey associate with, they are the real deal. It was still a hard fought battle, but I just feel if The Wild Hunt acknowledged who they were up against tonight, the end result may have been a little different here.
Wavy Crockett: And Layla is hot as fuck.
Ray Hudson: I don't think that has anything to do with what we just saw, but...
Wavy Crockett: She just is.
