[::The lights in the arena dim slightly as the pyro goes off and the crowd rises to its feet as Women's Wrestling Revolution comes to you live from the Savannah Civic Center in Savannah, GA. The last stop for the women of WWR before Belles on Parade. The crowd is as hyped as can be tonight as they get ready for a incredible "go-home" show. The cameras pan through the crowd as the fans hold up their signs and jump up and down as you see signs like...::]

QUEEN'S COURT FAN CLUB
SPIN THE WHEEL, MAKE THE DEAL
ALL HAIL THE ICE QUEEN
ENVY BROKE MY ARM
And...
BAN THE MIST
[::The official song of Battleground "Rise by Skillet" plays over the PA Speakers as the camera cuts to the broadcast booth of Monica Powers and Alexis Rose...::]
Alexis Rose: We are just two weeks away from Belles on Parade, but before we get there...we must Line Them Up! Welcome to Women's Wrestling Revolution Battleground! Coming to you live here at the Savannah Civic Center in Savannah, Georgia for what promises to be an incredible night of action. I'm Alexis Rose and I'm joined as always by my broadcast partner, Monica Powers! Monica, are you ready for the show tonight?
Monica Powers: Oh you know it partner! Tonight all of the final puzzle pieces will be filled in to determine the final card for Belles on Parade! Every championship will be on the line and one will be crowned for the first time. I can't wait to see what goes down tonight first though!
Alexis Rose: One of the matches we DO know at the pay per view will be Bobbi Jackson defending her Revolutionary Championship against Eliza Frost-Showtime. After the announcement of Bobbi's engagement to Alexa Cannon the challenger has been in rare form for the last several days of social media even conned the champion into letting her propose the match type and stipulations for their match at Belles on Parade. We will find out what those are tonight at the contract signing!
Monica Powers: We are also two weeks away from the battle of the Queens as the number one contender for the WWR World Championship, the Ice Queen Chelsea Pryce will challenge the Suplex Queen Susan Rigger for the title. But before we get there, Pryce will step into the ring with Eden Hart of the Queen's Court...With Susan at ringside! That will prove to be very interesting...
[::The cameras pan around the Savannah Civic Center as the crowd is loud and rowdy ready for the show tonight. We see the members of the rock band Sheridan at ringside. Clearly the stars are out tonight for WWR. The arena lights dim as the tron lights up in the arena as Katrina Showtime sits in a chair and for now the camera is only on her. She looks to be a bit more on edge than usual but tries to remain professional as she begins to speak::]
Katrina Showtime: Ladies and gentlemen, my guest at this time will be defending her Battleground Championship tonight in the main event against El Sin Rostro, please welcome...The Morrigan...
[::The cameras pan out to show Morrigan seated in a chair a few feet away from Katrina. Morrigan's face is expressionless, but she nods at Katrina.::]
Morrigan: I understand you've been wanting to meet, so her I am, in this seat.
[::Morrigan's raven is perched on her shoulder, looking around the room silently.::]
Morrigan: So I am assuming you've asked for us to talk, but if I don't like your questions, then I will walk.
Katrina Showtime: Yeah, well...
[::Katrina says squirming a bit in her seat uncomfortable by the presence of the woman and her raven that is seemingly the champions pet.::]
Katrina Showtime: I guess we should start with the obvious, why did you feel the need to injure Krystal Kirk?
[::The raven opens it's beak.::]
Raven: Injured Kirk!
[::Morrigan shushes the bird, stroking its head as she appeared to think of an answer.::]
Morrigan: I came back to take my Belt of White, and she was in the ring that night.
[::Morrigan lovingly strokes the title on her other shoulder, a small grin appearing on her face.::]
Morrigan: Wrong place, wrong time for Krystal to take that loss. A point, to the roster, I intended to get across.
[::Katrina shivers a hint before continuing.::]
Katrina Showtime: Well you certainly made your point, but you've made plenty of enemies in doing so. Including one El Sin Rostro. A good friend of Krystal who is coming for revenge tonight. Are you prepared for this challenge tonight?
[::Morrigan turns fully to face Katrina, narrowing her eyes.::]
Morrigan: You ask if I am prepared to fight, to defend my precious Belt of White?
[::The raven croaks loudly, bobbing on Morrigan's shoulder.::]
Morrigan: The Faceless One faces her own test. In this title picture, I am the best. Rostro lost to that silly Krystal, her momentum stopped as if by a missile. The end of this match, for the fans, will be most tragic. The Faceless will fall to my Blackest Magick.
[::Morrigan sneers, taking a sip of water from the glass next to her before holding it up to the jet black bird on her shoulder, who also takes a drink.::]
Morrigan: This is your show, and a big day, but a question, I have, if I may?
Katrina Showtime: Well it's not my show...but sure...ask away...
[::Katrina says pretty much ready to wrap this up anyway as being this close to Morrigan's presence is giving her the creeps.::]
Morrigan: What happens, my dear, when the challengers all fail? They bring their fight, are stricken down, and the Morrigan prevails?
[::Katrina kinda shrugs before answering.::]
Katrina Showtime: Then you will still be champion. Clearly. But if you get past tonight's main event I wish you the best of luck in the Elimination Chamber at Belles on Parade. That will not be easy on anyone, including you.
[::Morrigan chuckles, a sinister sound made all the more eerie by the raven mimicking it.::]
Morrigan: You think I fear your walls of steel? My opponents, their nightmares will be made real. Inside that structure, there are no rules, giving me access to all of MY tricks and tools.
[::The Morrigan stands, the raven croaking as she adjusts the belt on her shoulder.::]
Morrigan: And now our time has come and passed, you asked questions first, and answered last. Meeting you has been quite the pleasure. Please seek me out at your own leisure.
[::The Dark Druidess removes her microphone, dropping it in the chair before turning and making her exit as Katrina stares into the camera and offers another shrug as Battleground takes the first commercial break of the evening.::]
Arianna Grey: Ladies and gentlemen, this is the opening contest of the evening and it is a ten woman tag match. The winning team will all enter the Elimination Chamber at Belles on Parade to compete for the WWR Battleground Championship!
[::.The ten women had already entered the ring during the commercial break and the trash talk has already begun. But not just between the two teams but within the two teams as well. The egos in this match trying to work together could cause an explosion at any moment. But in order to compete for gold at Belles on Parade these women must TRY to coexist or cost themselves the opportunity in the process. The referee is trying to explain to both teams that they must agree on a person for each team to start the match up as this obviously isn't being held under Tornado rules.::]
Monica Powers: The tension in that ring right now is giving me chills Alexis! You have people on the same team wanting to rip each others heads off right now. Do we really think Dominique and Misti can get along long enough to win this match?
Alexis Rose: Well for their sake and their partners sake they better! They lose and both are out a shot at the Battleground Championship at Belles on Parade. Also Azzy has been so obsessed with fighting Vanessa Jones lately one on one will she be able to focus on working with her instead of achieving her pay per view bucket list match?
[::These questions and more were about to be answered as the referee calls for the bell and this match is underway.::]
DING! DING! DING!
The match starts off with Kelly Penzee-Nelson and Azurine Vebbins for their respective sides, an after a handshake show of respect between the two, the bell rings and the match is under way. KPN and Azzy lock up collar-and-elbow in the center of the ring, but the bigger KPN takes a headlock. Azzy backs her to the ropes, and KPN is tagged by Dominique Frost as Vebbins pushes Penzkee-Nelson into the far ropes. As she rebounds she leapfrogs Azzy, then is leapfrogged by Frost, who quickly kicks Azzy in the belly with her boot and snatches her back into a headlock. Azzy backs to her own corner and holds out her hand as Dominique wrenches down, with Anya Makarov quickly tagging in and slamming an elbow to the back of Frost's neck to make her release, then grabs up the Queen's Court member in a headlock of her own.
Frost powers Anya into her corner, and Misti Malandro makes a begrudging tag, taking Anya into a headlock of her own before bealing her over onto the mat, holding on. Makarov works free and turns the headlock into an arm wringer neatly, then pulls Misti into her corner as Brittany tags in, slamming a double axehandle on Misti's shoulder. Brittany wrenches around on Malandro's arm, but Misti drops and flips over, then stands and switches into an armbar of her own, pulling Brittany to her corner for a tag from Malaya Diyosa. Malaya steps in and pokes Brittany in the eyes as Misti steps out, using the young girl's hair to again snatch a headlock, but Brittany quickly elbows Malaya twice and forces the break.
Christina Zdunich reaches over and slaps Malaya's shoulder to enter the match, and at the same time Brittany is tagged by Maria Salvatore. The two women circle and smirk at each other for a moment, then stop, shrug at each other...and the donnybrook is on as both women begin firing away at the other with rapid-fire elbow shots! That's when the action begins to break down rapidly, and soon the referee has lost all sense of control of the match as all ten women are in the ring, each trying to batter and bruise someone from the other side!
Just as our poor referee establishes order in one area, another breaks out into chaos, and the young girl is perplexed, as all ten women have now pretty much foregone the rules and are fighting each other...with one exception. Azurine Vebbins remains on the outside of the ring, calling for a tag from any of her partners. Vanessa Jones finally dives and tags in Azzy, who becomes a little bespectacled house afire, clearing the ring in a hurry as her team stands tall in the center!
The calm didn't last long, however, as none of the women could help themselves, and again the brouhaha bubbled over into another chaotic scene. The end came not long after, as Dominique Frost and Malaya Diyosa looked at each other with a death stare before working together to lift Brittany high into the air for a double brainbuster! Malaya made the cover as Dominique played protector, fending off a diving attempt at a pin break by Anya as the zamboozled zebra counted the pinfall!
Arianna Grey: Here are your winners, The team of Christina Zdunich, Dominique Frost, Kelly Penkzee Nelson, Misti Malandro, and Malaya Diyosa!
[::Dominique wasted NO time big booting Misti right in the face after the match was over sending her down in a heap. The tall blonde leaves the ring as the rest of the winning team bickers amongst themselves.::]
Alexis Rose: I'm shocked they were able to co-exist for that long to be honest...
Monica Powers: Yea well no reason to play nice anymore. It's every woman for themselves in that Elimination Chamber.
Alexis Rose: Now to find out who will join them later on tonight, El Sin Rostro or Morrigan.
Monica Powers: We will find out soon enough, but for now we gotta take a commercial break. We'll be right back with more WWR Battleground!
[::Battleground returns from commercial break and Katrina Showtime is standing in the parking lot as a vehicle pulls up and parks. Zoe Jane and Super Tiger get out, two members of the Phoenix Coalition and one of the newest tag teams in WWR known as Tiger Pride. They have a big Battle Royale later on in the evening and obviously Katrina is out there to get their thoughts.::]
Katrina Showtime: Super Tiger! Zoe Jane! Can I get a quick word on your alls upcoming match later on tonight?
[::Zoe and Super Tiger look at each other and kinda nod as Zoe looks back at Katrina.::]
Zoe Jane: Only if it's super quick because we are already late. We got lost on the way to the arena and we really need to hurry up and get ready.
[::Katrina nods in understanding.::]
Katrina Showtime: I totally get it, I won't hold you two up. Go get ready for tonight, I look forward to seeing how you two operate as a team later on in the Battle Royale.
[::Super Tiger giggles a bit as Zoe flashes a beautiful smile, laughing a bit herself before responding.::]
Zoe Jane: I think we're gonna shock the world tonight Katrina, stay tuned!
[::Super Tiger gives Katrina a high five and the interviewer smiles as Zoe and Super Tiger make their way into the arena as we head back to ringside for the next match up.::]
Arianna Grey: The following non-title match is scheduled for one fall with a twenty-minute time limit and it is a hardcore match, introducing first...
[::"Chicken Noodle Soup by j-hope (feat. Becky G)" blares over the PA Speakers as Valerie Rodriguez makes her way onto the stage and strikes a quick pose before making her way to the ring. It looks like she has something to prove tonight.::]
Arianna Grey: From Tres Palos, Mexico. She is...Valerie Rodriguez!
Alexis Rose: Valerie Rodriguez, she hasn't done a lot here in WWR thus far. But she has an opportunity to step into the ring with the newly crowned Chaos Champion, a victory here could go a LONG way in establishing herself on the roster.
Monica Powers: I mean heck, if she beats Charlotte here tonight you gotta think our General Manager would consider making the Chaos Title match at Belles on Parade a triple threat match!
[::Valerie gets into the ring and looks out into the crowd taking a deep breath before looking at the entrance stage, awaiting her opponent.::]
Arianna Grey: And her opponent...
[::"I Stand Alone by Godsmack" hits the PA Speakers as the newly crowned WWR Chaos Champion hits the stage to a mixed reaction, but a strong one regardless. She has a smug grin on her face and the title slung over her shoulder as the makes her way to the ring.::]
Arianna Grey: Currently residing in Las Vegas, Nevada. She is the WWR Chaos Champion...Charlotte Haliday!
Monica Powers: You can tell by the look on her face Alexis, there is nothing humble about the Chaos Champion...
Alexis Rose: While you aren't wrong, it has been interesting to see her newly found relationship with Lassindra V of the Phoenix Coalition as of late. I wonder if the champion is at all worried about possibly having to her Lass at Belles on Parade in two weeks time? If she is, you certainly can't tell that by looking at her right now.
[::Charlotte gets in the ring and holds the championship up immediately getting right in Valerie's face as the two exchange words. Charlotte hands the title off and tells the referee to ring the bell but they refuse to do that until they can get the two separated. Once that's proven successful the bell is called for and this match is underway.::]
DING! DING! DING!
The bell rings, and Charlotte walks across the ring, offering Valerie a handshake. Rodriguez accepts the handshake, only for Haliday to pull her in and thumb her hard in the eye. The rookie screams out in pain before Charlotte hits her hard with a headbutt, dropping Valerie to the mat. Charlotte responds instantly, wrapping her arms around her opponent’s waist and lifting her with a deadlift German suplex. Valerie crumples, rolling back and forcing herself up to her hands and knees.
Charlotte takes the opportunity to slide out of the ring, grabbing a steel chair from under the ring. She slides back in, but Rodriguez catches her off guard with a quick dropkick, causing Haliday to drop the chair. Valerie lifts Charlotte, throwing her into the ropes. Haliday comes back, launching herself through the air with a crossbody and taking the youngster to the mat. Charlotte rolls through, grabbing the chair and rising to her feet. Valerie Rodriguez turns to a sickening WHACK! as the chair collides with her skull, dropping her to the mat. Blood flows from a cut on her forehead as Charlotte tosses the chair to the side. She comes back, lifting her prone opponent to her feet before executing EARLY HALIDAY! The crowd gasps as Charlotte goes in for the cover!
Valerie kicks out at two purely on instinct, the referee’s hand inches above the mat for the three count. Charlotte gets a look of surprise on her face, but she hauls Valerie to her feet. Valerie throws a desperation slap, catching Haliday off guard and causing her to stumble backwards. Valerie continues with her burst of offense, pulling off a Japanese arm drag and throwing the champion to the mat. She hurries to the corner, climbing up top and leaping off, looking for her finisher TOP ROPE SENTON BOMB…no! Charlotte gets her knees up! Valerie clutches her stomach, rolling onto her back. Charlotte sneers, lifting the chair again and slamming it down over Rodriguez’s stomach. She screams, rolling onto her back only to eat two more chair shots from an annoyed Haliday.
Charlotte tosses the chair aside and hurls her opponent into the corner. Valerie hits the corner, slumping down before Haliday comes in with a wicked forearm dropping her opponent to the mat. Charlotte quickly scoops Rodriguez up again, delivering a second EARLY HALIDAY and rolling her opponent up for a three count.
Arianna Grey: Here is your winner, the WWR Chaos Champion...Charlotte Haliday!
[::Charlotte is handed her championship as she holds it with one hand high above her head looking down at her latest opponent with no remorse in her eyes.::]
Monica Powers: Damn that was brutal...
Alexis Rose: It really was, I think Charlotte just made an emphatic statement tonight!
Monica Powers: If I'm those women in the Hardcore Scramble later tonight, I might be thinking twice about wanting to win that one.
Alexis Rose: Hah! I wouldn't blame them if they did. We got to take a quick commercial break, but we'll be right back with more WWR Battleground!
[::WWR Battleground returns to the arena after commercial break, the lights dim as the tron lights up playing a vignette for the crowd and everyone watching at home. It wasn't long before we heard the familiar voice of one Envy Ellis.::]
Envy Ellis: Do you have what it takes to be a Goddess?
[::The scene opens up inside a poorly-lit storage locker commissioned by the Women’s Wrestling Revolution. Inside the cage used for the Queen of the Cage Championship tournament, Envy Ellis can be seen leaning, her fingers intertwined with the links of fence enclosing her.::]
Envy Ellis: People have been asking me if I have what it takes for the last two weeks, when I caught Maria Salvatore and had her on the mat tapping out in a matter of SECONDS. Seriously… did anyone get an official time for that match? And you still QUESTION if I have what it takes? Let’s just explain how we even got here.
[::She sneers.::]
Envy Ellis: Since the first week, I had been seemingly irrevocably linked to another talent… this talent had become a thorn in my side from the beginning, a cloud hanging over my head, always lingering around to stand in the way of MY success. And the first chance I have to show what I’m made of without her lingering? I tap a bitch out like THAT!
[::Envy reaches her hand out, snapping her fingers.::]
Envy Ellis: Still doubt me? Am I still ALL TALK? Is my mouth still writing checks I can’t cash!? Because where I’m sitting, I’m just one fight away from becoming something I could have been three months ago: WWR’s only two-time first-ever Champion! It’s funny to see where the road has taken us, isn’t it?
[::Envy chuckles, pushing back off the cage.::]
Envy Ellis: Tonight is different. Tonight isn’t between these walls… it’s back in the ring, but the goal is just the same: Make a bitch tap. And Lacey Turner, I know how badly you want to prove that Aura Everton beating you was a fluke. I know you want people to believe you really deserve to be in these finals against me at Belles on Parade, but tonight is not going to be your night. Because just like Maria Salvatore learned two weeks ago, you’re going to learn that when it comes to submissions there is NO ONE better than me! And as for the question posed a month ago… asking if the Goddess of the Cage Championship is Aura Everton’s to lose?
[::She shakes her head.::]
Envy Ellis: Not when I’m in the conversation. Her loss won’t be by her own mistake… it will be because there is someone MORE fit for that Championship… because there is someone BETTER. And that someone… well…
[::Envy grins.::]
Envy Ellis: That someone is right here.
[::With that, the tron goes to black and the arena brightens back up to take us to our next match up.::]
Arianna Grey: The following contest is a submissions match scheduled for one fall with a twenty-minute time limit, introducing first...
[::"Blow by Ed Sheeran, Chris Stapleton, and Bruno Mars" blares over the PA Speakers as Envy Ellis hits the stage. Grinning from ear to ear still riding that high from her victory two weeks ago as she makes her way to the ring.::]
Arianna Grey: From Washington, DC. She is...Envy Ellis!
Alexis Rose: Here comes the woman with the quickest recorded victory in WWR history, Envy Ellis! Will see try to break that record again tonight?
Monica Powers: You never know Alexis! After tapping out Mari Salvatore two weeks ago in the Octagon she looks to continue that momentum against Lacey Turner. The woman who stepped into the cage with her opponent Aura Everton at Belles on Parade! This is clearly about trying to test herself going into the pay per view. While Aura has been very quiet about the upcoming match, Envy continues to put herself squarely in the spotlight!
[::Envy gets into the ring and stretches out almost completely ignoring the crowd around her as she awaits for the arrival of Lacey.::]
Arianna Grey: And her opponent...
[::"Shape of You by Ed Sheeran" hits the PA Speakers as Lacey Turner struts out onto the entrance stage, strikes a pose and makes her way to the ring.::]
Arianna Grey: From Manchester, England, she is...Lacey Turner!
Monica Powers: Certainly a lot of Ed Sheeran music in this match...
Alexis Rose: Heh, I wasn't gonna say it! Regardless, Lacey feels likes a misfire in the Octagon cost her a shot to compete for the Goddess of the Cage Championship. If she can make Envy tap out tonight that would probably go a long way in her being the new number one contender after Belles on Parade.
[::Lacey Turner gets into the ring and poses for the crowd showing off as Envy stares daggers into the back of her head. Eventually she turns around and the two face off as the referee quickly calls for the bell...::]
DING! DING! DING!
As soon as the bell rings Lacey feints a run at Envy who immediately prepares for a counter but Turner laughs loudly pointing at Envy yelling that she isn't stupid like her opponent two weeks ago and wasn't going to make that same mistake. The two women slowly circled one another, waiting for the other to make the first move. Finally Envy does lunging in to grab Lacey in a side headlock. Turner pushes her off and into the ropes and as she comes back Envy eats a running knee right to the jaw as Lacey jumps upon Envy as the crowd gasps expecting a shocking upset here.
That was not to be however as Envy kicks out at two. Lacey rises to her knees in shock and starts arguing with the referee getting up in their face. Which clearly isn't a smart move as this leaves Envy time to recover. Grabbing Lacey's leg and took her down with a rolling leg lock. Lacey cried out in pain as she inched towards the bottom rope which lucky for her was relatively close. Envy held the hold on for the count of four before letting go and backing up a few steps before rushing back in to stomp away on her opponent.
The rest of the match say Envy picking apart Lacey targeting her limbs and kinda just punishing her for daring to step into the ring with her to begin with. Eventually Ellis decided it was time to end things as she locked Turner in the arm bar that she calls Green With Envy. It doesn't take long at all for Lacey to tap out rewarding the match to Ellis.
Arianna Grey: Here is your winner, Envy Ellis!
[::Envy rises to her feet triumphantly and immediately looks for the nearest camera man to yell into it to Aura that she's coming for her. Ellis looked quite amped up and hyped over that victory as the referee raised her hand in victory.::]
Alexis Rose: Another impressive victory for Envy Ellis!
Monica Powers: Her momentum continues to build heading into Belles on Parade.
Alexis Rose: We know Aura has been away training but hopefully for her sake she's watching closely!
Monica Powers: You take this opponent lightly and you might not be walking away as Goddess of the Cage Champion!
Alexis Rose: Very true! We'll be right back with more WWR Battleground! Don't go anywhere!
[::WWR Battleground returns from commercial break and we are taken to a video that immediately blinds the viewer momentarily with numerous camera flashes would line along a catwalk, as an unnamed model would walk down and pose in a dress, as Milana was behind her. The other woman turned around and arrogantly bumps her shoulder, which caused Milana to quickly snap and transition the other woman into a hip toss and a standing armbar while the numerous camera flashes would fill the air, as Milana began to speak while the other woman writhed in pain.::]
Milana Radek: I've spent too much time in the world of glamour. Bunch of prissy divas who think the world revolves around them... I craved the combat, the glory...
[::She said, applying more torque to the armbar, causing the model to cry out in pain, as Milana wears an orgasmic look on her face while cameras flash on her, as she spoke with a heavier breath to her voice.::]
Milana Radek: That euphoric feeling of making your opponent squirm like the vermin they are... So I'm coming to WWR...
[::She said, cranking on the hold, as the other woman was tapping out. Milana would close her eyes and nipped her bottom lip, before saying to the camera in a husky, yet sensual tone.::]
Milana Radek: And challenging anyone there foolish enough to challenge me. Because their pain, will be my pleasure.
[::She said, before finally letting the other woman's arm go, as she continued her walk back from the runway as the video package fades out.::]
[::Battleground returns to ringside as we see Katrina Showtime standing in the ring with a table, two comfy looking chairs, and a contract with two pens and two microphones sitting on the table. Katrina, microphone in hand begins to address the crowd.::]
Katrina Showtime: How are we doing tonight Savannah!?
[::Katrina goes for the cheap pop and she gets it as she smiles happily before continuing.::]
Katrina Showtime: Tonight we sign the contract for the Revolutionary title match in two weeks time at Belles on Parade as Bobbi Jackson defends the championship against Eliza Frost-Showtime. Tonight the match type and stipulations of said match will be revealed. So without further ado, lets bring out the champion and the challenger!
[::"The Phoenix by Fall Out Boy" blares over the PA Speakers as Bobbi Jackson hits the stage, the Revolutionary title over her shoulder as the fire pyro shoots from the sides of the stage. Alexa Cannon has been left backstage which is probably the right call as the champion makes her way to the ring.::]
Katrina Showtime: Introducing first, representing the Phoenix Coalition. She is the WWR Revolutionary Champion..The Rising Phoenix, Bobbi Jackson!
Alexis Rose: Here comes Bobbi 3 Belts! This woman has had a fantastic string of wins across multiple companies in the last couple of months.
Monica Powers: She has indeed and you definitely know she's not over looking the threat of her challenger at Belles on Parade. It's been clear from social media this week that Eliza is as intense as ever. The Phoenix better be careful tonight...
[::Bobbi steps into the ring and greets Katrina with a warm hug before placing the championship on the table and taking a seat in one of the chairs awaiting the arrival of Eliza.::]
[::"Bootylicious by Destiny's Child" hits the PA Speakers as Eliza Frost-Showtime struts out onto the entrance way and strikes a stunning pose before making her way to the ring. Her eyes locked with Bobbi's as she makes her way down the aisle.::]
Katrina Showtime: And the challenger. She is representing the Queen's Court...Eliza Frost-Showtime!
Monica Powers: This match was already going to be heated and personal, but with Bobbi's recent announcement that she's engaged now...I think it's going to rise to another level we weren't originally prepared for...
Alexis Rose: Bobbi has tried absolutely everything to try to bury the hatchet with Eliza but it just hasn't worked. Hopefully Katrina will be able to keep these women civil in the ring tonight, I'm worried that both of them are in their gear, they could break out into a brawl at any moment!
[::Eliza gets into the ring and approaches the table. Her and Katrina exchange a respectful nod as the brunette takes a seat in the other chair staring across the table at Bobbi before picking up her microphone and begins to speak...::]
Eliza Frost-Showtime: Well then, I guess it's time for us to make this all official.
[::Eliza raises a leg, crossing it over the other.::]
Eliza Frost-Showtime: But first things first, before we sign anything we both need to have the full picture. Have you been looking forward to learning just what I had in mind?
[::She looks across the table into Bobbi's eyes, but the crowd feels like she's addressing them too and many cheer excitedly, having caught the two women hyping up this moment on Twitter. Bobbi picks up her microphone as well to respond to her challenger.::]
Bobbi Jackson: Like I told you on Twitter earlier this week. I'm intrigued. Looking forward to it...? Knowing how you can be sometimes? Probably not...
[::The champion says with apprehension in her voice, already ready to bargain throughout this contract signing to make sure she's comfortable with what she's agreeing to at Belles on Parade.::]
Eliza Frost-Showtime: I set out to construct a match that will be remembered for ALL time, something NOBODY here has ever witnessed before and quite possibly never will again. A match that'll be a spectacle worthy of us, of being a highlight not just in the Court's and Coalition's feud, but yours and mine. I like to call it... Three Stages of Humiliation.
[::Bobbi immediately starts shaking her head no.::]
Bobbi Jackson: Look Eliza, I don't know what type of game you're playing right now. But I'm not stepping into the ring at Belles on Parade to humiliate you! That's not what this is about!
[::Eliza just slams her hand against the table as she jumps to her feet, glaring across the table at Bobbi.::]
Eliza Frost-Showtime: That's because you already HAVE! Flaunting your new girlfriend, a marriage proposal on pay per view, you are doing all you can to rub it right in my face and make me look like a fool! Now it's MY turn! I already know I can beat you, I've done it already, but THIS time you will REMEMBER, EVERYONE will remember, who has the last laugh!
[::Bobbi is genuinely startled by Eliza's sudden outburst as Katrina tries to convince the brunette to sit back down and hash this out civilly. The Phoenix sighs deeply and responds...::]
Bobbi Jackson: I'm sorry you feel that way. I really do...Just...sit down...and i'll hear your proposal out...Not agreeing to anything right now...Not yet...
[::Bobbi says rolling her chair back a few inches so in case Eliza doesn't listen to Katrina and tries to lunge at her over the table she can get up and defend herself. Eliza however does take her seat, taking a deep breath to calm herself, but her expression stays cold, eyes a bit narrowed.::]
Eliza Frost-Showtime: What I propose is a best two out of three falls match where each round is contested under different rules...
[::Eliza raises her arm, holding up a finger.::]
Eliza Frost-Showtime: The first fall will be a Paddle on a Pole match. Whoever can grab the paddle may use it as they see fit.
[::Bobbi narrows her eyes with a huff but reluctantly agrees.::]
Bobbi Jackson: Fine...
[::Eliza raises another finger, a wicked grin on her lips.::]
Eliza Frost-Showtime: The second fall will be a bit of a blast from the past, a Bra & Panties match, the first to get stripped down to their underwear loses!
Bobbi Jackson: WHAT!? Are you out of your damn mind!?
[::Bobbi blurts out as it was her turn to stand up out of her seat, clearly upset.::]
Bobbi Jackson: Why!?
[::The blonde exclaims already knowing the Frost's eventual answer...humiliation.::]
Eliza Frost-Showtime: Elementary, my dear Bobbi. You got your turn to embarrass me, now it's MY turn to embarrass and humiliate you! I don't think I even need to bring the third fall up since I'll be defeating you for the first two, but for the sake of being thorough, SHOULD the match go into the third fall...
[::Eliza raises a third finger, smirking at the flustered blonde.::]
Eliza Frost-Showtime: ...it will be what I like to call a "Tap Out or Pass Out" match, no rules...anything goes...and the first to either submit or be unable to continue will be the loser.
[::Bobbi glares across the table at Eliza, someone that deep down she cares so dearly for wishes to put her through this kind of hell. But the blonde wasn't going to back down. She sits back down in her chair in a huff and responds.::]
Bobbi Jackson: You know what, Eliza? Fine! You want me to spank you with a paddle and rip off your clothes? FINE! This is NOT how I wanted to do things but since you're so damn insistent on this. This is on YOU! NOT ME! Maybe after this is done you'll finally realize how foolish this all was to begin with!
[::The champion says also clearly confident that this isn't going to the third fall.::]
Eliza Frost-Showtime: Heh heh and after I do all that, since in reality beating you twice is only two stages of humiliation...the REAL third stage will be the loser of the match, you! kissing the winners ass, mine...in the middle of the ring, in front of everyone! Essentially admitting to the world that I'm the better woman for ALL to see.
[::The shapely brunette smirks cockily. Bobbi blushes bright red a look of rage and anger on her face as she slams her fist on the table now much like Eliza did with her hand earlier.::]
Bobbi Jackson: NO! Absolutely positively NOT! NOT HAPPENING!!!!
[::Eliza's grin grows wider.::]
Eliza Frost-Showtime: What's the matter? I thought you were going to spank me and rip my clothes off? Not as sure about that as you were putting on, are you now? You going to chicken out after all, let all these people down?
[::Eliza gestures around her and indeed some shouts rise from the crowd, urging Bobbi to accept, while some tell her not to as well. Bobbi looks out into the crowd that is clearly divided right now as she stares back at Eliza glaring. The blonde huffs and puffs as she tries to think quickly and counter this proposal.::]
Bobbi Jackson: Oh I'm sure I'm going to win! So FINE! I ACCEPT!!!
[::Eliza almost cackles at the blonde giving her everything she wants, feeling like she's playing the champion like a fiddle::]
Bobbi Jackson: But WHEN I win? That's not what I want for my third stage! Mine is much simpler and straight to the point of getting what I want! After I beat you? And the match is over? The third stage of your humiliation is being FORCED to leave the Queen's Court!
[::Eliza's eyes briefly widen as she wasn't expecting that, clearly taken aback by the demand. She takes a moment to consider it, hesitation plain on her face, but after taking a while to consider it she nods her head accepting Bobbi's terms.::]
Eliza Frost-Showtime: It's a deal then, we have our rules set.
[::Katrina lets out a sigh almost in relief that this seems to be over as she speaks to the two women.::]
Katrina Showtime: Alright, with that being said all that is left to do, is sign the contract and the match will be made official!
[::Eliza snatches the contract and a pen before Bobbi can and signs the it with a flourish before handing it off to the champion.::]
Eliza Frost-Showtime: I DO look forward to this one. I will enjoy paying you back every moment of humiliation with interest on top.
[::Bobbi picks up the other pen and speaks to Eliza before signing the contract.::]
Bobbi Jackson: Here's the thing Eliza. I hate that it's come to this. I really do. You're supposed to be my friend. I know you're upset about Alexa and I but this isn't the way to go about things. But clearly there is no other way to get through to you. So I accept this match not to humiliate you, but to hopefully make you see the light and we can all move past this!
[::Bobbi says as she signs the contract and puts the pen down staring Eliza directly in her eyes.::]
Eliza Frost-Showtime: The only place you'll be moving is to your knees before me as I best you and take the Revolutionary championship as my own.
[::Eliza smirks as she offers a hand to Bobbi.::]
Eliza Frost-Showtime: May the best woman, ME of course, win.
[::Bobbi rolls her eyes and extends her hand to shake Eliza's.::]
Bobbi Jackson: I'm going to beat you and I'm taking you out of the Queen's Court. It's for your own good.
[::Eliza grabs Bobbi's hand and suddenly yanks her forward, leaning in to meet her as she tugs the blonde beauty right into a kiss. Bobbi's eyes go wide in shock as she immediately pushes Eliza away with her free hand as you can hear her scream "What the fuck Eliza!?"as the champion stares at the challenger in shock. Eliza licks her lips and chuckles, waving at Bobbi as she backs up to the ropes, then slips out. Bobbi gets up to try and follow her in a rage but Katrina is there to calm the blonde down reminding her that she's falling for the Frost's mind games. Eliza stops at the top of the ramp and turns to give an exaggeratedly big bow, a wicked grin upon her lips as she heads back through the curtains as Bobbi grabs her championship and holds it high in the air as if to say, this title is going no where.::]
Alexis Rose: Wow...
Monica Powers: I'm seriously at a loss for words right now...I don't even know what to say...
Alexis Rose: Well...it appears Eliza is getting everything she wants...
Monica Powers: I just hope Bobbi didn't let Eliza get one over on her here.
Alexis Rose: I have faith in our champion. Eliza will regret this in two weeks time. I can feel it...
Monica Powers: Well I hope you're right Alexis. But we've gotta take a quick commercial break and that works because we need to collect our thoughts after that anyway. We'll be right back folks!
Arianna Grey: The following contest is tag team battle royale. Where eliminations occur when a wrestler is thrown over the top rope and both feet touch the floor. If one member of a team is eliminated they both are. The surviving team will be declared the number one contenders for the WWR World Tag Team titles at Belles on Parade!
[::Six of the best tag teams in WWR all stand in various parts of ring, having entered into the ring during the last commercial break. Everyone talking strategy. Trying to figure out the best way to survive a match like this where team work is more crucial than ever. If one team mate goes, they both go.::]
Alexis Rose: One of these teams will be challenging the Queen's Court in two weeks time. Who you got Monica?
Monica Powers: This is really anybodies game. Battle Royales so are damn unpredictable. One mistake could cost a team in the blink of an eye. I really don't want to venture a guess here. Let's just watch and find out for ourselves...
[::The referee walks around to each team reminding them of the rules before sliding out to ringside and calling for the bell.::]
DING! DING! DING!
The bell rings, and the match implodes from the start. The Pretty Committee slides out of the ring, strutting around, only to walk straight into Regulators Inc. who level both women with clotheslines before being thrown back into the ring under the bottom rope. Zoe Jane and Super Tiger come toe to toe with the Dark Arrival, Zoe throwing forearms into Lilith Knight, while Super Tiger began throwing kicks into Maxine Acid’s thighs. The final pairing facing off being the Satsujin Triad and the Sullivan Sisters, as Allison and Stephanie start throwing multiple attacks into the Asian duo.
Veronica helps Bianca to her feet before Regulator’s Inc. slide in, with Bianca reaching into her boot and pulled out a spray bottle. She looked to spray Sadie in the eyes, but Jane pulled her partner out of the way and slapped Bianca’s hand, causing her to drop the bottle. Sadie responded immediately, rushing in and throwing a clothesline at Veronica, causing the woman to go over the top before catching her feet on the apron, only to eat a superkick from Jane, causing her to fall off the apron to the floor.
[::Pretty Committee Eliminated::]
Regulator’s Incorporated slapped hands before turning back to the ring, only to eat dropkicks from Super Tiger and Zoe, knocking both women into the ropes. They collapse to the mat, but before Tiger and ZJ can take advantage, the Dark Arrival is back on them, delivering DDT’s to the pairing of fan favorites. Boos rain down from the audience before the Satsujin Triad attacks Dark Arrival from behind, with Nari Chang lifting Lilith Knight over her head, and dumping the woman clear over the top rope straight to the floor.
[::Dark Arrival Eliminated::]
Cappadonna slaps Nari on the back with a nod before pointing to Super Tiger. Chang nods, lifting the little luchadora, looking to eliminate her but Zoe Jane slams her shoulder into Nari’s stomach, allowing Super Tiger to counter with a huricanrana. Chang hits the mat, and Cappadona eats a forearm from Zoe. The Motor City Maidens come in, hitting the stunned Triad member a pair of clotheslines that force her over the top rope and down to the floor, resulting in their elimination.
[::Satsujin Triad Eliminated::]
Three teams remain as the Motor City Maidens, Regulator’s Inc., and Super Tiger and Zoe Jane look across the ring at each other. No one is quick to make the first move. Eventually Stephanie does make the first move, with Allison right behind her, as they move on Sadie and Jane. The two teams exchange multiple strikes, with the Regulator’s Inc, gaining an advantage, nailing the Motor City Maidens with their finisher, RED DEAD REVOLVER! Before they can capitalize, however, Zoe grabs Jane from behind, whipping her hard toward the ropes. Super Tiger is already there, and she grabs the top rope and pulls it down, forcing a low bridge which causes Jane to tumble over the top rope, bouncing off the apron to the floor.
[::Regulator’s Inc Eliminated::]
The final two teams now, and the Motor City Maidens are still reeling from the Red Dead Revolver when Zoe and Super Tiger approach. Tiger hits a standing moonsault on Stephanie Sullivan, who was still down from the Red Dead Revolver. Zoe throws a forearm into the jaw of Allison Sullivan, knocking the woman backwards with a stagger. She bounces off the rope, coming back with a clothesline, flooring Zoe. Super Tiger is already on her feet, hitting the ropes and coming back, leaping up and catching Allison with a headscissors, whipping her toward the ropes. Sullivan catches her feet on the apron, blocking an elimination attempt from Super Tiger. Zoe gets to her feet and throws Stephanie at her partner who is attempting to get back into the ring. The two collide, Allison stumbling but catching herself with the ropes. Stephanie climbs back to her feet before eating an enzuigiri from Zoe before Tiger dropkicks Allison in the side of the head, forcing her to tumble from the apron and down to the floor.
[::Motor City Maiden’s Eliminated::]
Arianna Grey: Here are your winners, Super Tiger and Zoe Jane...Tiger Pride!
[::Zoe Jane and Super Tiger celebrate with a big hug before the referee raises their hands declaring them the winners.::]
Alexis Rose: They say sometimes couples make great tag team partners, tonight that most certainly was proven true!
Monica Powers: But will they be good enough to wrestle the titles away from the Queen's Court at Belles on Parade?
Alexis Rose: I'm not entirely sure, but I damn well know that it's going to be an amazing match up!
Monica Powers: For sure! We'll be right back with more Battleground after this quick commercial break!
[::WWR Battleground returns from commercial break and we see Jessica Jackson conversing with fellow Queen's Court stablemate and long time friend, Dominique Frost. The two are discussing Jessica's Hardcore Scramble match that is only moments away. The cameras catch the two blondes conversation already in progress as the camera man watches from a distance where they don't notice him right now...::]
Dominique Frost: Look, you just need to be smart out there. This isn't about winning early. It's about winning late. You have another chance to bring yet another piece of gold to the Queen's Court if you win this match. You know how much absolute power over WWR means to Susan.
[::Jessica nods.::]
Jessica Jackson: Of course I do! I also know if I win this match I have to pull double duty at Belles on Parade and that's something I'm less than thrilled about...
[::Dominique kinda shrugs.::]
Dominique Frost: If you want to get technical we are pretty much on duty any time a member of the Court is in the ring. So it's really nothing new.
Jessica Jackson: True...true...I just need some kind of plan out there tonight...
[::The tall blonde Frost sister grins.::]
Dominique Frost: I think I've got a pretty good strategy for you, what you need to do is...
[::As Dominique talks, Jessica notices the camera man out of the corner of her eye. She stares daggers into him and starts to chase him off.::]
Jessica Jackson: HEY! Fuck face! Get the fuck outta here! You don't spy on the Queen's Court!
[::We see the Camera turn and start to run as Jessica chases off after him as we hear Dominique laughing at the employee's misfortune but then sighs realizing she wasn't able to give Jessica the strategy as Battleground takes a another quick commercial break before the next match.::]
Alexis Rose: WWR is no stranger to Scramble matches. But tonight, we are hosting our first ever Hardcore Scramble! Same rules apply, but it's being contested under Hardcore rules!
Monica Powers: And the woman who wins this match will get the chance to head to Belles on Parade to face Charlotte Haliday for the Chaos Championship. Not sure if that is a reward or a punishment. Never the less...Let's send it over to Arianna for the ring introductions...
Arianna Grey: The following contest is a Hardcore Scramble match, the last woman to score a pinfall or submission prior to the time limit expiring will be declared the winner. Introducing the competitors...
[::"Rise by Skillet" plays over the PA Speakers, the official song of WWR Battleground as the competitors in this match start to make their way to the ring one after another...::]
Arianna Grey: Ash Walweat!
Arianna Grey: Jessica Jackson!
Arianna Grey: Lassindra V!
Arianna Grey: Ceithre Brennan!
Arianna Grey: Diamond Steele!
Arianna Grey: And Auntie Maybelle!
[::The women all look around ringside looking for weapons to grab before getting into the ring one by one...::]
Alexis Rose: I would imagine this match is going to be pretty brutal...are you ready for this, Monica?
Monica Powers: As ready as I'm gonna be! Haha! Let's do this!
Alexis Rose: Well luckily we only have to call it. I wish these ladies the best of luck! And there's the bell, the clock starts now!
DING! DING! DING!
The bell rings and immediately chaos ensues, as Jessica Jackson slams a chair across the back of Ash Walweat, setting the tone for the match in the opening seconds. Ceithre Brennan and Diamond Steele have paired off on the outside, taking turns smashing the other's head into the apron, while Lassindra V and Auntie Maybelle shrug and begin to duke it out in the center of the ring. Walweat, meanwhile, has rallied and slings Jackson across, using a drop toe-hold to smash the buxom blonde's head on the seat of the chair! A quick three-count later and everyone's favorite alien is in the cat-bird seat!
Her pinfall didn't last long, however, as the action became violent. Trash cans, kendo sticks, chairs...even a ironing board...all became useful instruments of destruction as pins went back and forth over the course of the next eighteen or so minutes of the match, with someone taking the title shot from someone else as soon as that woman had obtained it. The women themselves were showing the signs of the battle as well, with Ceithre bleeding from her forehead, and both Walweat and Maybelle sporting huge welts on their arms. Jackson had a large bruise across her cheek, the victim of a kendo stick shot from Lass, who had bruises on her own back from the fight. Diamond Steele's hair showed a slight crimson tinge on one side of her forehead as well.
In the last thirty seconds, Ash Walweat was again in position to head to Belles On Parade as the challenger, but Diamond threw her from the ring and DDT'd Ceithre on a steel chair. At the same moment, Lassindra hit Maybelle with a chair-assisted splash from the top, and made the cover just as Diamond did. The referee looked for a second, then used both hands to count a pinfall for both Lass and Steele! Jackson and Brennan asked her which one got the pin, and she responded that both had made a pinfall simultaneously! This caused a fuming Jackson to scream, then kick Brennan squarely in the gut before putting Ceithre's head between her legs, struggling for a moment but getting her up and spiking her on her head onto a prone steel chair! Jessica crawled over to make a cover, and got a one-count, but the bell rang before the referee could complete a three, time having expired on what had been an absolute war between all six women.
Arianna Grey: Here are your winners, Lassindra V and Diamond Steele!
[::The crowd stood as one and cheered for the efforts of all six potential Chaos Championship contenders, the referee holding up the arms of both Lassindra V and Diamond Steele in victory due to the double pinfall.::]
Monica Powers: Another double winner out of a Scramble...Crazy!
Alexis Rose: Jessica almost prevented that from happening but time wasn't on her side tonight.
Monica Powers: Double trouble for the champion now, her rival and her girlfriend...? Yikes!
Alexis Rose: That's going to be an explosive match for sure! We'll be right back after a quick commercial break.
[::Battleground returns from commercial break as we see the WWR World Champion, the Suplex Queen Susan Rigger standing with her back to the camera. Her championship slung over her shoulder looking at a poster on the wall for WWR Belles on Parade. She speaks to the camera she knows is there without turning to face it.::]
Susan Rigger: False Queens, I've squared off against many in my day. So many women who thought they were better than me. Above me. And one by one, they all were taught their place. On their knees at my feet. Bowing before the Suplex Queen. The only Queen in professional wrestling that matters...
[::The busty brunette slowly turns around. A shiny glare of the championship catches the camera lens a bit while Susan adjusts the title on her shoulder.::]
Susan Rigger: In two weeks, at Belles on Parade. I face yet another so-called Queen. This time? It's the Ice Queen. Chelesa Pryce. That's cute. Really. I have two sisters in my group with the last name Frost that could easily take the mantle of Ice Queen away from you with ease. But I suppose that task falls on my shoulders instead. A task that I gladly accept.
[::Susan grins wickedly into the camera.::]
Susan Rigger: Don't get me wrong Pryce. I know who you are. I know what you can do in that ring. You've got all the talent in the world. But you're not better than me. You're not above this Queen and you surely aren't a one woman army against the Queen's Court!
[::The Suplex Queen huffs and glares.::]
Susan Rigger: So I will make an example out of you in two weeks time. I will show every single woman on the WWR roster what awaits them if they dare to challenge me for my championship. In two weeks Chelsea? Prepare to bow to the Suplex Queen. But tonight? Prepare to be beaten by my greatest student in Eden Hart. You are not prepared.
[::Susan smirks as she walks off the camera view to go meet up with Eden as her match with Pryce is up next as Battleground heads to ringside for that match.::]
Arianna Grey: The following contest is scheduled for one fall with a twenty-minute time limit, introducing first...
[::"Human by Hell Yeah" blares over the PA Speakers as the Ice Queen Chelsea Pryce hits the stage as the crowd greets the veteran with a thunderous ovation. She smiles a bit before making her way to the ring.::]
Arianna Grey: From Detroit, Michigan. She is the Ice Queen...Chelsea Pryce!
Alexis Rose: The Ice Queen cometh...
Monica Powers: We are two weeks away from the battle of the Queen's for the richest prize in WWR, the World Championship! We are absolutely certain it will be a match for the ages. It will be great to see two legends of the ring collide for the very first time!
[::Once Chelsea gets into the ring she's all business as she looks up the ramp waiting on the arrival of the Queens' Court.::]
Arianna Grey: And her opponent...
[::"Eye of a Panther by Steel Panther" hits the PA Speakers as Eden Hart takes the stage, flanked by the WWR World Champion Susan Rigger. The two make their way to the ring together as the crowd boos the duo loudly.::]
Arianna Grey: Currently residing in Jacksonville, Florida. Being accompanied to the ring by Susan Rigger. Representing the Queen's Court, she is...Eden Hart!
Monica Powers: Doesn't sound like the Queen's Court has a lot of fans here in Savannah...
Alexis Rose: I don't think they care though! When you're wearing championship gold, especially women like that? They care very little what anyone thinks about them.
[::Susan speaks to Eden at ringside giving her a pep talk before sending her into the ring and it's clear the tattooed blonde is all fired up and ready to do Susan proud. The referee calls for the bell and gets this match underway.::]
DING! DING! DING!
Chelsea and Eden measure one another up as the referee calls for the bell and as soon as it's rung Susan slaps her hand again the ring's canvas with a smack, drawing Chelsea's attention and the moment the champion takes her attention off Eden the tattooed blonde lunges in and knees her right in the stomach. She clasps her hands before Chelsea's head as she batters her belly with repeated knee strikes, just softening the champion up while Susan applauds her from ringside.
Chelsea grits her teeth as she shoves Eden off her, then twists her body around as her leg slashes through the air, the KO Shot aimed right at Eden's head. The challenger jerks her head back just in time to avoid eating the potentially devastating kick, stumbling backward a bit from the desperate dodge while Chelsea regains her balance as well and the face off again, glaring at one another. Susan tries to make noise again, but the Ice Queen keeps her cool this time, the referee telling Rigger to cut it out. Eden narrows her eyes a bit, never a fan of her mentor and girlfriend being told off by anyone.
The tattooed beauty feigns going for another strike with her knee and instead she lunges in low, grabbing at Chelsea's legs, but the more experienced wrestler sees the feint for what it is and grabs Eden's arm as she's coming in, suddenly leaving her feet and twisting around to scissor her legs around the caught limb and flip Eden onto her back and right into a Crucifix Armbar. Eden cries out in pain as her elbow is painfully bent in the hold and she scrambles to reach with her leg, just managing to place a foot on the rope, Susan demanding that the referee immediately tell Chelsea to break the hold, which they of course do, no real need for the prompting.
The Ice Queen lets go and Eden rolls away, clutching at her arm and shaking the feeling back into it as she stands up, staring daggers at the champion for making her look like a fool in front of Susan with such a counter. Fueled by frustration, she flings herself at Eden, grabbing the champion's head as she goes for a big Flying Knee, but Chelsea raises her arms to block it, the impact sending her staggering backward. Eden presses her assault as she darts after the veteran, barely managing to duck her head as Chelsea suddenly pivots on the spot and swings her cocked arm the oncoming blond's face in a Roaring Elbow that misses by a hair's width.
Eden runs at the ropes and jumps at them, bouncing off into a big Flying Knee that the champion barely manages to sidestep, grabbing Eden around the waist as she does and yanking her off her feet to slam her on her shoulders in a German Suplex. Susan huffs at the Ice Queen using such a familiar to her move as Chelsea maintains her grip and twists around to stand up, pulling Eden with her, but as she goes for another one Eden's training with the Suplex Queen pays off as she entangles her right leg with Chelsea's, blocking the Suplex, then manages to slip out of her grasp and around the champion, grabbing her wrist as she goes and yanking on it to spin Chelsea around right into another knee that smashes right up under her chin and knocks her loopy as she staggers back and into the ropes.
Eden backs up a bit, then rushes in as she looks to drive her knee into the champion again, but Chelsea manages to rally herself in time to catch her coming in and send her over the ropes with a Back Body Drop, Eden barely managing to grab onto the top rope to hold on. As Eden pulls herself onto the apron Chelsea leaves her feet through, twisting around to nail the challenger with an Enzuigiri that sends her falling to the mats, Susan rushing over to check on her. The Ice Queen and Suplex Queen glare at one another as Susan helps Eden to her feet, then whispers something to her, the tattooed blonde nodding her head and kissing Susan's cheek before she slides back into the ring.
Eden circles around Chelsea, the feigns a charge, the champion stepping back just enough for Susan to reach under the ropes and grab at her feet, but Chelsea is quick enough to evade the Suplex Queen's clutches, the referee seeing it too and huffingly issuing another warning. While the ref and Chelsea have their attention on Susan though Eden quickly rushes in and rakes her nails across the Ice Queen's eyes. Eden cries out in pain as she grabs at her face, dropping to a knee as she loses her footing in her blinded state. Eden immediately grabs Chelsea's wrists and yanks on them as she smashes her knee into her face in a Kamigoye, the champ's head snapping back from the impact. Eden hurries to pin her, hooking a leg while Susan barks at the referee to do their job and count the pin, which they hurry to do, but only reach a two-count before Chelsea kicks out.
The tattooed blonde huffs as she goes to drag Chelsea to her feet, but suddenly the champion twists out of her grip and pivots in place, building momentum which she blasts right into Eden's face with a Roaring Elbow that sends Eden staggering backward into the ropes. Chelsea is right on, grabbing Eden's head and jumping to press her knee up under her chin as she drops backward into her signature Facebreaker, Pay the Pryce, but at the last moment Eden's shoulders are grabbed from behind as Susan yanks her back, causing Chelsea's grip to slip as she lands flat on her back with a thud.
The referee is plenty sick of Susan's interference and demands she exit the ringside area lest her protege be disqualified. Susan furiously complains, but the ref isn't having any of it, pointing to the ramp and again telling her to leave. Eden doesn't look pleased about it, but she measures Chelsea up as she backs into a corner, waiting for the dazed champion to stand before charging at her, ready to blast her with another knee when suddenly the Ice Queen's eyes lock on her and her leg lashes out again, this time catching the oncoming blonde right on the temple with a KO Shot that sends Eden down.
Chelsea grabs Eden's legs, crossing them up and twisting her over onto her belly and catching the top leg between hers as she drops down and clasps her hands across Eden's face in an STF, locking her into the Natural Disaster. Eden cries out in pain as the Ice Queen cranks back on the hold, bending her neck back painfully. The referee hears this and rushes over to ask Eden if she quits. The challenger claws at the canvas as she desperately tries to crawl her way to the ropes, but with her legs trapped so she doesn't have nearly enough traction to drag Chelsea along with her. Finally she raises a hand and just as she goes to tap out the champion is knocked right off her as Susan rushes in and Dropkicks her square in the face. The referee has seen more than enough and calls for the bell to end the match in a disqualification.
Arianna Grey: Here is your winner, as a result of a disqualification...The Ice Queen, Chelsea Pryce!
[::Susan and Eden begin the beat down on Chelsea as Jessica runs down to join in on the action. The three of them trying to take out the challenger for Susan's title before she can even get to Belles on Parade. But before any real long term damage can be done the crowd gets LOUD as Bobbi, Zoe, and Super Tiger rush the ring and the Phoenix Coalition chases the Queen's Court out of the ring. Bobbi checks on Chelsea helping her up as Zoe and Super Tiger keep the trio at bay.::]
Alexis Rose: Thank goodness for the Phoenix Coalition!
Monica Powers: That could have been really bad had the Queen's Court got what they wanted there. Clearly they didn't want the Ice Queen making it to the pay per view.
Alexis Rose: Well she's gonna be there and the battle of the Queen's will happen whether the Court likes it or not!
Monica Powers: It's gonna be a hell of a main event!
Alexis Rose: Speaking of which, our main event is up next! Right after our final commercial break. Don't go anywhere folks!
[::WWR Battleground returns from its final commercial break and the camera opens up focused upon the Purge mask of El Sin Rostro. The woman narrates in English…::]
El Sin Rostro: Look into the eyes of the Faceless. See, masks hide emotion. They hide trepidation. They hide fear. Now look into my eyes…
[::The hand reaches down, sliding the mask upward to reveal the face of the Faceless - El Sin Rostro. Her eyes do not show any of the qualities she described as being hidden.::]
El Sin Rostro: You want honesty, you look into someone’s eyes. Morrigan, since you returned to the Women’s Wrestling Revolution, you have operated with absolute impunity. You attacked Krystal Kirk following her Championship defense at Rising. You then were put into the match to determine her next challenger, seemingly already pushing me aside. You took the Championship and injured KK in the process. You retained over Maybelle Harper. Everything, it seems, happens on your terms.
[::She shakes her head.::]
El Sin Rostro: Look into my eyes. I do not fear you, Morrigan. I do not hesitate to face you. I have deep anticipation for the war we will have between the ropes, because it will be a war. So while you may regale us with your cryptic poetry, nothing you say and nothing you rhyme will be relevant. What happens in there? I provide you with the long-deserved consequences for your actions. And ripping the Battleground Championship… that which drew you back here, that which you feel BELONGS to you… out of your grasp will only be a shred of that punishment.
[::With that, the scene statics before going to black as we return to ringside for the main event of the evening.::]
Arianna Grey: This following contest is your main event of the evening and it is for the WWR Battleground Championship! Contested with a sixty-minute time limit, introducing first...
[::"Faint by Linkin Park" blares over the PA Speakers as El Sin Rostro makes her way onto the stage and walks to the ring. A purpose in her step it was very obvious how much this match meant to her, this was more than just a title shot. This was for a fallen friend, this was personal.::]
Arianna Grey: The challenger! From Mexico City, Mexico. She is...El Sin Rostro!
Alexis Rose: El Sin Rostro, who earned this title shot on Battleground two weeks ago steps into the main event tonight to try and dethrone the Morrigan an she has plenty of motivation to do so...
Monica Powers: She's fighting for her fallen friend Krystal Kirk, that's gotta add some extra weight to her shoulders tonight, hopefully she can handle it!
[::El Sin Rostro hops into the ring as the crowd cheers her on, she stares directly at the ramp with fire in her eyes. Clearly she's been waiting a long time for this.::]
Arianna Grey: And her opponent...
[::"Shireen by UMAI" hits the PA Speakers as the cameras watch the stage and the arena goes dark. The Morrigan steps out onto the stage with the Battleground Championship on her shoulder. She stares at El Sin Rostro almost with no emotion whatsoever as she makes her way to the ring.::]
Arianna Grey: From Parts Unknown. She is the WWR Battleground Champion...The Morrigan!
Monica Powers: Always feel chills go down my spine when Morrigan makes her way to the ring Alexis!
Alexis Rose: The Morrigan has been on a tear since capturing the Battleground Championship and injuring El Sin Rostro's friend Krystal Kirk in the process. Will she be able to retain again tonight and move onto the Elimination Chamber in two weeks time? We're about to find out.
[::Morrigan steps into the ring and looks down at her championship in her hands before handing it over almost reluctantly to the referee. She stares across the ring at Rostro and the stare is met. The ref knows this is about to explode so there was no reason to wait any longer as they all for the bell and the main event is underway.::]
DING! DING! DING!
As the bell rings the two women walk to the center of the ring, facing off as they measure one another. Morrigan reaches a hand out for a shake and El Sin Rostro looks at it, then just slaps it aside, seeing the trap coming a mile away. Morrigan goes for a kick to the gut anyway, but her foot is caught and El Sin shakes her head her head before throwing the foot aside, sending Morrigan staggering around right into a loudly smacking chop across the chest, the champion grimacing with pain.
El Sin Rostro maintains pressure with another Knife-Edge Chop, then another, backing Morrigan toward the ropes when suddenly the raven-haired beauty drops down, scissoring El Sin's legs with hers to Drop Toehold her throat first into the second rope. As the challenger for her title coughs Morrigan shoves her down and twists her over, then tucks her legs under her arms and drops backward, catapulting El Sin Rostro into the bottom rope in a Decapitator. The challenger rolls out onto the apron, grabbing at her throat and coughing violently.
Morrigan reaches over the ropes to grab her opponent by the hair, dragging her to her feet, then dragging her face along the top rope, making it scrape over El Sin Rostro's eyes. With her opponent blinded, Morrigan steps back, then rushes in and drops into a sliding Dropkick that kicks El Sin's legs out from under her, sending her crashing down against the apron before tumbling to the mats below. Morrigan smirks as she backs up, letting the referee count. El Sin Rostro isn't that easy to deal with though and even as she coughs and rubs her eyes she rolls back in well ahead of the count... only for Morrigan to Dropkick her in the ribs even as she's rolling in, sending her right back out.
This time Morrigan rolls out after her opponent, dragging El Sin Rostro to her feet by her hair again, but the challenger suddenly swats her arm away, then just starts laying into Morrigan with bashing forearms to the chest and to the side of her head before she just bull rushes her against the edge of the ring. The usually so calm woman is showing some fire in retaliation to Morrigan's cheap tactics as she gets up onto the apron, measures her opponent up and throws herself at her, grabbing hold of Morrigan's head in mid-flip as she yanks her down into a Blockbuster with the force of her momentum.
Morrigan grabs at the back of her head as she rolls around a bit, rising to her knees with her forehead pressed against the mats while El Sin Rostro rolls back into the ring and gestures for the champion to rise, then runs across the ring, hitting the ropes to come back even faster and flings herself through the ropes, crashing into Morrigan in a Suicide Dive to knock her back down.
El Sin Rostro tucks Morrigan's head under her arm as she pulls her up, then jumps at the apron, kicking off it to twist around the champion and drop backward to drive her skull into the mats with a Tornado DDT. Morrigan seems limp as El Sin drags her up and shoves her in under the ropes, rolling in after her to make the cover. RIGHT before the three-count Morrigan's eyes snap open and she raises an arm to lift her shoulder and break the pin.
Her face refusing to betray whether she's feeling frustrated or not, El Sin Rostro goes to pull Morrigan up again, but as she does the raven-haired champion shoves her back, causing her to bump into the ref and knock them down as they catch an elbow to the head. El Sin still looks calm as she glances at the referee, then turns back to Morrigan just in time to eat a faceful of Green Mist. She recoils, grabbing at her face as she's once again blinded, the green substance burning at her eyes.
Morrigan scoops up her opponent and rushes at the nearest corner, just tossing El Sin Rostro face first into it, the Mexican beauty's head jerking back from the impact. Not done yet, the champion slips her arms under El Sin Rostro's and clasps her hands in a Full Nelson, swinging a leg past El Sin then back down between her legs to sweep her off them and drive her head first into the second turnbuckle with the Dark Prophecy. As El Sin Rostro limply slumps down and Morrigan shoves her over onto her back the still wobbly looking referee comes over to count the pin.
Arianna Grey: Here is your winner, and STILL WWR Battleground Champion...The Morrigan!
[::Morrigan rolls out of the ring and procures her "title of white" as she holds it over her head as the crowd rains down boos upon the champion.::]
Alexis Rose: And once again the poison mist plays a factor tonight, damnit!
Monica Powers: You gotta feel for El Sin Rostro, she was SO close...Just wasn't able to get past the devious tactics of the champion.
Alexis Rose: But now the champion has to worry about FIVE opponents in two weeks time inside the Elimination Chamber!
Monica Powers: Good luck have enough mist to deal with all that!!
Alexis Rose: We are just about out of time here tonight on Battleground but I'm being told we have one more thing to see backstage before we go off the air, can get cut our feed to the backstage area please?
[::The feed cuts just like Alexis asks as the camera pans up, showing the door to the Phoenix Coalition Locker Room. The door opens as Bobbi Jackson, Misti Milandro, and Lassindra V all exit, chatting with one another. Super Tiger and Zoe Jane remain, speaking to one another quietly.::]
Super Tiger: Go ahead ZJ. I’ll be out in a few minutes.
[::Tiger smiles up at her girlfriend who smiles back before leaning down and giving the luchadora a quick kiss. Zoe grabs her bag and heads out to the rest of the waiting Coalition as Tiger turns her back to the camera. Her thin fingers come up behind her head, deftly untying the mask and pulling it off. The young girls face is obscured by her hair as she looks down at the mask in her hands, the beautifully colored and decorated face staring back up at her.::]
??: Hello Super Tiger. It’s been awhile since we talked.
[::The girl giggles, tilting the mask in her hands as the lights in the room reflect up off the beading and gemstones, sparkling in the camera frame.::]
??: I wanted to talk to you about, well, us. The year we left behind with 2019.
[::The girl sighs with a small chuckle.::]
??: We left Japan, nervous but determined to show the world what lucharesu was all about. We made friends rather quickly! Arley Kirk, who would go on to be like a sister to me. My tag team partner of Kawaii Trash Pandas Go! We met Bobbi Jackson, the leader of the Phoenix Coalition, who would train us on the differences in the rules between puroresu and American professional wrestling, and become one of our closest allies.
[::The mask, obviously, remains silent, though the girl continues to speak as though she’s having a conversation.::]
??: It was through Bobbi that we met her. Zoe Jane. The love of our life! She’s so sweet, and she does everything she can to hold me up and support me 100 percent. My ZJ…
[::The girl giggles, the mask in her hands shaking a bit.::]
??: There have been some… difficulties. Mai Blackman has seen fit in both matches we’ve had in NFW to rip you away from me, Super Tiger. She sees you as a weakness to exploit.
[::The girl sighs, shaking her head a bit, but not enough to show her face.::]
??: I must do something about that. I must evolve. Get better. Be the professional wrestler I know I can be.
[::A case is opened on the bench next to her as the girl turns slightly, placing the mask on the pedestal inside.::]
??: I love you, Super Tiger, and I owe you everything. Now it’s time to see what happens going forward with me, ZJ, and the Phoenix Coalition. Where our path goes in the other companies we’re signed with. This will be our year. 2020 is OUR year. And I plan to prove it.
[::The case is closed before the girl puts it in her bag, taking out a ballcap, hoodie, and a medical face mask. She gets dressed, and turns to the camera, her eyes showing the smile that the camera can’t see.::]
??: Here we go WWR! Are you ready for the future? Take our hand and let us travel together!
[::The girl giggles, hurrying out of the locker room to a waiting Zoe Jane before taking her hand as the final show prior to Belles on Parade comes to an end.::]
