Commentators - Tony Schiavone & Dr. Cube



Dark Matches
- Deonna Purrazzo def. Isla Dawn via Submission w/ Fujiwara Arm Bar in 5:01




This is it.

The fans are going wild.

Are they fans or are they lifelike facsimiles created by Dr. Cube to make this event seem... real... not out of the orindary... who knows? But they're cheering. Their minds are lost in time and space, here on the edge of reality. The camera pans around, giving us a good look at the sleek, top of the line scientific facility which is now doubling as the site for the first-ever all-women SGW event. Taking a high speed trip around ringside, the camera finally stops in front of our announce team for the evening, revealing the dynamic duo of Tony Schiavone and Dr. Cube!

[ Tony Schiavone ] Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to what could possibly be... the weirdest night in the history of this great sport!

[ Dr. Cube ] Yes! YES! YESSSSSS!

[ Tony Schiavone ] I'm Tony Schiavone, and sitting next to me is the nefarious Dr. Cube!

[ Dr. Cube ] It is I! IT IS I! Welcome to my luxurious laboratory, where I create my most potent potions, my most malicious monsters, and my most callous creatures! Tonight, Tony, you will embark on the most jostling journey by my sinister side and bare witness to the most abominably ambitious event in the hectic history of professional wrestling!


The camera zooms in on Dr. Cube's face.

[ Dr. Cube ] AN ALL FEMALE EVENT!


Tony clears his throat.

[ Tony Schiavone ] Wait, that... that's all this is?

[ Dr. Cube ] What? Is it too devious? Does my ambition frighten you, Tony!? Does it chill you to the bone to sit shoulder to shoulder with a man who would reach for the heavens in order to TOUCH GOD!? Do you fear, me Tony? Do... you... fear me? Like all the others!?

[ Tony Schiavone ] It's just that... lots of wrestling companie have had all-female events. This is just the first one in SGW history. Not that I'm any less excited for it! Honestly, it's quite the relief that nothing too weird will be--

[ Dr. Cube ] WE ARE TEETERING ON THE EDGE OF TIME AND SPACE!

[ Tony Schiavone ] The venue does appear nice, though.

[ Dr. Cube ] THE FANS ARE CLONES, SCIENTIFICALLY ENGINEERED TO RESPOND AS ANY REAL WRESTLING AUDIENCE WOULD!

[ Tony Schiavone ] That's not the weirdest thing in SGW this month!

[ Dr. Cube ] ALL THE MATCHES WILL BE REFEREED BY MY MONSTROUS MINIONS!

[ Tony Schiavone ] Hold on, you mean like... Tucor?!

[ Dr. Cube ] ESPECIALLY TUCOR! MY MOST TIMELY... AND IMPARTIAL CREATION!

[ Tony Schiavone ] What else could you possibly have in store for us tonight?

[ Dr. Cube ] The same thing I have in store for SGW every night, Tony.


Cube chuckles behind the frowning face on his mask.

[ Dr. Cube ] I will try to take over the world.

[ Tony Schiavone ] Well, then!


Before Tony and Cube can continue to banter, the Cube-Tron flashes to life and gives us a glimpse of... another Dr. Cube?! The live crowd boos loudly. This Dr. Cube, however, something is different about him. He appears to literally be in outer space, with all sorts of cosmic energy around him. Rather than Cube's usual lab attire, he is clad in a magnificent robe made of gold and royal blue. The camera settles on his frowning face for a time.

[ Tony Schiavone ] Hold on! What is this!? How are you sitting next to me... but also floating through outer space!?

[ Dr. Cube ] That's not me, Tony... oh no... that's HIM!

[ Tony Schiavone ] Him!?

[ Dr. Cube ] Yes! HIM!

[ Tony Schiavone ] I don't understand!

[ Dr. Cube ] You wouldn't! He is the original Cube! The one who achieved Real Ultimate Power by defeating Kris Statlander! The one became one with the power and ascended to GODHOOD! He is Cube Prime... and if he is visiting us here... he must have a good reason!

[ Tony Schiavone ] I don't--

[ Dr. Cube ] SILENCE! WE MUST LISTEN!


Cube Prime looks around the arena from the Tron.

[ Cube Prime ] Insignificant sheep, all of you...


The fans boo.

[ Cube Prime ] I am the knitter and weaver of all time and space. I am the crosser of dimensions! The bender of realities... and bent them, I have. I have conquered worlds the likes you will never know, for your feeble minds could never comprehend the cosmic chaos which I have witnessed... I should smite the lot of you. You are ants to me! Insignificant ants! And what are ants to a GOD?!

The fans loudly begin a dueling "SHUT THE FUCK UP" versus "OUTLAW BULLSHIT" chant. Cube Prime chuckles.

[ Cube Prime ] However, admittedly... I do have a soft spot for the dimension which birthed me... my mortal form, that is... so it is with that, that I have come bearing a gift from another dimension... a place where magic runs amok... a place you termites have only read about in books, literally. Who knew such a place could be a reality in another corner of the universe... but it is... and it is magnificent.

The fans boo loudly as the Brainwashed Monster Abyss walks out onto the stage, holding something in both hands that's hidden under a white sheet. Abyss climbs into the ring, almost stumbling and falling in the process.

[ Cube Prime ] Thank you, Abyss. You were always one of my favorite monsters, though even you are now lower than a scab compared to my heightened state of existence. What Abyss holds in his hands, is a prize forged from elven gold by a battle hardened dwarf... and baptized in the blood of a thousand orcs! Yes, ORCS! I give to all of you... a prize which two women I have handpicked will do battle for RIGHT NOW!


The fans suddenly seem very interested, buzzing with anticipation.

[ Cube Prime ] THE GODDESS OF SHOCK CHAMPIONSHIP!


Abyss whips the sheet back to reveal:

The fans pop huge!

[ Tony Schiavone ] That's... that's a crown!

[ Dr. Cube ] Yes, it is, Tony. The main championship on that brand is a staff! A frickin' staff, Tony! Are you trying to say this is weird!? Because it totally isn't! It's normal! It's breathtakingly NORMAL!

[ Tony Schiavone ] I just... I'm just confused about why this so-called Cube Prime would traverse time and space to create a championship for SHOCK of all things!

[ Dr. Cube ] Don't be obtuse, Tony. It's obvious why he has blessed SHOCK with this prize!

[ Tony Schiavone ] Why?

[ Dr. Cube ] You wouldn't get it, you germ.


Abyss holds the crown up, showing it to the fans.

[ Cube Prime ] Now, bring about my hand picked competitors! Let them fight! Let them bleed! Allow them to lay their mortality on the line for this... the most precious championship prize in all of Solid Gold Wrestling... AND REALITY!

The Golden-Tron shuts off, going completely dark. Before the fans can even react, Hyper Misao bursts out from the back on her green bicycle to a huge pop. She takes a lap around the ring before crashing hard into the ring steps and flying head over heels, landing in a seated position!

[ Dr. Cube ] What an idiot!

[ Tony Schiavone ] Hyper Misao is one of the most beloved characters in the LONG AND STORIED HISTORY of the SHOCK brand! If anyone deserves to compete for this championship, it's her!


As Hyper Misao climbs into the ring, showing no sign of injury from her crash, "Celtic Invasion" hits and Becky Lynch emerges from the back to a huge pop. She makes her way down to the ring, high fiving fans on the way down before climbing inside. Hyper Misao and Becky Lynch each stand in their corners, eyeing the other. Abyss removes his usual shirt to reveal... a referee shirt!

[ Tony Schiavone ] Oh my! Abyss is the referee!?

[ Dr. Cube ] Indeed! This truly is the greatest night in the history of our sport!


Referee - Brainwashed Abyss | Time Limit - 60:00

Abyss calls for the bell to start the match. Misao and Becky circle one another for a moment before locking up in the middle of the ring. They fight for positioning and Becky takes Misao over in a headlock before taking her down to the mat. The two women struggle for a moment before Misao slips out of the hold and catches Becky in a headscissors, keeping her grounded. Becky does a headstand to escape the scissors and immediately boots the seated Misao right in the face! Becky snatches up Misao by her hair and drills her into the mat with a snap suplex! Becky rolls right back to her feet, maintaining the suplex grip, and lifts her high in the air... for a BRAINBUSTER! Becky goes for a cover and Abyss counts! ONE! TWO! MISAO BRIDGES OUT!

[ Tony Schiavone ] The heart of Hyper Misao is undeniable!

[ Dr. Cube ] Yes, it is, Tony... I would love to add it to my collection!

[ Tony Schiavone ] Wait, what?

[ Dr. Cube ] Imagine the heart of Hyper Misao inside a superior physical body like Hikaru Shida or my most gigantic kaiju monster--

[ Tony Schiavone ] Tucor? Dusto Bunny?

[ Dr. Cube ] SHOKO NAKAJIMA! SHE IS HUGE!


Becky continues going to work on Misao, pummeling her with forearm shots on the before pulling her back to her feet and tossing her into the corner. Becky chips away at Misao with forearms and boots in the corner before hoisting her up into a seated position on the top turnbuckle. Becky follows her up and attempts to bring her down with a suplex but Misao elbows Becky in the mid-section repeatedly. Becky drops down off the turnbuckles, landing on her feet, allowing Misao to leap off the middle rope and take Becky down with a SUNSET FLIP! ONE! TWO! TH-- BECKY KICKS OUT!

[ Tony Schiavone ] That was close!

[ Dr. Cube ] Almost... too close! Do better, Abyss!


Misao scrambles back to her feet and hits the ropes as Becky starts to get up... METEORA! Misao quickly pulls Becky back up to her feet and pulls her in... SNAP SUPLEX! Misao rolls straight back to her feet and goes to the turnbuckles! Becky slowly returns to her feet and Misao flies... FLYING CROSSBODY! Becky rolls through, ending up on top! ONE! TWO! THR-- MISAO BRIDGES OUT! The fans are going wild! Becky gets back up and pulls Misao up to her feet. Becky nails Misao with a forearm and Misao fires back with one of her own... only for Becky to trap the arm and deliver a BEXPLODER! Becky rolls straight through and locks in... THE DIS-ARM-HER! The fans go nuts as Misao reaches for the ropes... but she's too far away! She has no choice but to--

[ Tony Schiavone ] WHAT IS THIS!?


SONYA DEVILLE HITS THE RING AND BOOTS BECKY RIGHT IN THE HEAD IN FRONT OF ABYSS! The fans erupt in boos as Becky falls to all fours, releasing the hold! Becky looks up at Deville in surprise... and struggles back to her feet! Deville instantly delivers a one-two punch and then plants Becky with the SQUARE-UP KICK! Becky goes down and Sonya pulls Misao on top of her right in front of Abyss! Abyss drops to his knees and counts! ONE! TWO! THREE!

WINNER & FIRST CHAMPION
HYPER MISAO via PINFALL in 07:43

[ Tony Schiavone ] What the heck was that?! Sonya Deville attacked Becky Lynch right in front of the referee! This match wasn't no disqualification!

[ Dr. Cube ] I've said that Abyss is one of my favorite monsters... not one of my smartest monsters, Tony!

[ Tony Schiavone ] I'll say! Either way, Hyper Misao is our FIRST SGW Goddess of SHOCK Champion! I don't think she even realizes it yet!


Sonya Deville mounts Becky and begins raining punches down on her as the fans boo... however, the fans suddenly EXPLODE as Hyper Misao nails Sonya with a basement dropkick, knocking her off of Becky! Sonya quickly retreats, leaving up the ramp, swearing revenge. Abyss is holding the Goddess of SHOCK Championship and prepares to present it to Misao... but Becky intercepts him, looking worse for wear. She takes the crown from him and stares Misao down before handing it to her. Becky points to the crown and says "another day, miss," before leaving exiting and leaving the ring for Misao to celebrate.




We head backstage where we see Rhea Ripley watching what just happened on a monitor, shaking her head in disgust. Bea Priestley is resting in a chair behind her with her feet propped up, chewing gum obnoxiously.

[ Rhea Ripley ] What is this? A fuckin' joke?!

[ Bea Priestley ] The first all-female event in SGW history 'n they bloody kick it off with a fuckin' clown show of cunts. Pathetic.


The camera pans over to reveal Io Shira, AZM, and Starlight Kid also watching the monitor. Io has the SGW Women's World Championship on her shoulder. All three of them are already in their gear, ready for the main event tonight.

[ Io Shirai ] Misao... is-uh our partner.


Ripley looks at Io, annoyed.

[ Io Shirai ] Should be... happy... to have second champion on team!

[ Rhea Ripley ] A second champion? Look at that thing! It's a fuckin' crown! What in the bloody hell is she even supposed t' do with it?! Play pretty pretty princess?! This is wrestling, not the fuckin' cosplay cafe!

[
AZM ] < I agree! Hyper Misao is a joke! Just like the other joke who wears a mask around here! >

[
Starlight Kid ] < Are you talking about me? >

[
AZM ] < No, I'm talking about the OTHER joke who wears a mask! >

[
Starlight Kid ] < Oh, okay! >

[ AZM ] < Of course I'm talking about you! Just as I suspected, your mush for brains reveals you for the grandma that you are! >

[
Starlight Kid ] < Oh no! >

[
Io Shirai ] < THAT'S ENOUGH! Be respectful to one another! >


We hear a bell ringing and Hyper Misao rides into the room on her bicycle while wearing the Goddess of SHOCK Championship on her head. The fans pop huge. Priestley sits up in her chair as Misao rides past her and jams a metal rod into the spokes, causing Misao's bike to flip. She lands in a trashcan.

[ Bea Priestley ] Fuckin' idiot.

[ Rhea Ripley ] Absolute moon unit.


Hyper Misao sits up in the trashcan with the crown still on her head. She's covered in garbage. She seems completely oblivious to what just happened.

[
Hyper Misao ] < I DID IT, TEAM! I HAVE BROUGHT PEACE AND LOVE TO SHOCK ONCE AND FOR ALL! SEE MY CROWN!? >

[ Rhea Ripley ] You look ridiculous.

[
AZM ] < She is Oscar the Grouch. She is even green and smells bad, too. >

[
Hyper Misao ] < THIS IS THE HAPPIEST DAY OF MY L-- >


Ripley palms Misao's head and shoves her into the trash can before placing the lid on top, sealing her inside. Ripley dusts her hands off, looking annoyed. She turns back to Io and Lightning Star.

[ Rhea Ripley ] That'll be enough o' that.

[ Io Shirai ] Your dis-uh-respect... weer farrow you... Rip-uh-ree.


Ripley towers over Shirai, staring down at her.

[ Rhea Ripley ] Tonight... I'm gonna beat the bloody brakes off Charlotte Flair and put a stop t' that little push before it even gets started. This is my division, cunt. It's always been my division... and just because you're the flavor of the month, keepin' my title warm... don't mean a damn thing.


Io looks down at her title and back up at Ripley.

[ Rhea Ripley ] You're nothin' but somebody I gotta drag kickin' 'n screamin' to a win at Body Count, so I can take that title off you myself... and that's exactly what I intend to do.


Io huffs, not backing down at all.

[ Io Shirai ] Bring... it... on.


Shirai turns and walks out of the room with Lightning Star following. Rhea Ripley stands there, watching them go. Priestley shakes her head, annoyed. They hear a knocking from inside the trashcan.

[ Hyper Misao ] < Hello!? Is anyone out there?! >

Ripley shakes her head and looks at Bea.

[ Rhea Ripley ] Throw that thing down a flight of stairs, will ya'?


Fade out.





Referee - Failed Dr. Cube Clone #11 | Time Limit - 60:00

The failed clone of Dr. Cube calls for the bell to start the match! Sasha Banks and Kylie Rae start out, circling one another before going for a lock-up in the center of the ring. Kylie immediately executes a go-behind and nails Sasha with a release German suplex! The fans pop huge as Sasha rolls right back up to her knees, looking offended... just in time for Kylie to take her down with a running basement clothesline! The fans pop huge and Sasha rolls out of the ring! Bayley hops off the apron and hugs Sasha, petting her hair... until Maki Itoh flies off the top rope and wipes out both women!

[ Tony Schiavone ] This action is starting off fast and furious!

[ Dr. Cube ] Indeed, it is! You will find no greater action than what occurs here in the outskirts of reality! Nowhere on YOUR Earth will you find talent like Sasha Banks or the delectable Maki Itoh with her gigantic, mutant head!

[ Tony Schiavone ] All of these women are LITERALLY from our Earth, Dr. Cube!

[ Dr. Cube ] Lies! Why have I never heard of them!?


Itoh gets up and pulls Bayley back to her feet, peppering her with forearms before whipping her into the guardrail. Bayley reverses it and sends Itoh into the guardrail instead! However, before she can capitalize, Bayley turns right around into a baseball slide from Kylie Rae! Bayley crashes into the rail behind her! Sasha springs back up and grabs Kylie by the ankles, dragging her out of the ring and immediately taking her down with a clothesline! Sasha mounts Kylie and drills her with forearm after forearm! Sasha stands up and brushes the hair out of her face before pulling Kylie up... and suplexing her onto the mat!

[ Tony Schiavone ] They've been outside the ring a long time! Why isn't the referee counting them out?!

[ Dr. Cube ] Well, see, that's why he's a FAILED Dr. Cube clone, Tony. He doesn't have all the wit and charm that you find with the original! He's a little more like you, no offense.

[ Tony Schiavone ] None take--

[ Dr. Cube ] Kidding! ALL OFFENSE INTENDED, worm!

[ Tony Schiavone ] Hey, that's not nice!


Sasha pulls Kylie to her feet and throws her under the bottom rope. Kylie gets up to a seated position just as Sasha comes off the ropes and takes her down with a METEORA! Bayley rolls under the bottom rope and joins Sasha in the ring. The failed Dr. Cube clone just watches as Bayley and Sasha double team Kylie Rae with impunity! They whip her into the ropes and take her down with stereo dropkicks! Kylie goes down hard and Bayley mounts her, punching away at her head as Sasha climbs the ropes. Bayley rolls off of Kylie as Sasha flies... and lands with the FROG SPLASH! Sasha covers! ONE! TWO! THR-- NO! MAKI ITOH BREAKS THE PIN WITH THE FLYING BIG HEAD FROM THE TOP ROPE! The fans pop huge Maki Itoh springs back to her feet but walks right into a boot... and HEADLOCK DRIVER from BAYLEY! Bayley shoves Itoh under the bottom rope where she crashes to the floor! Bayley grabs Kylie Rae and nails her with the BAYLEY TO BELLY! Bayley pulls Sasha on top of Kylie! ONE! TWO! THREE!

WINNERS & STILL CHAMPIONS
THE BOSS 'N HUG CONNECTION
via PINFALL in 09:11

The fans erupt in boos as Bayley retrieves the Twinstar titles and brings them into the ring, handing them both to Sasha, who cradles them to her chest while rocking back and forth, sobbing. Sasha crawls toward the ropes and calls for a microphone. She receives one and returns to her feet as if she was never being emotional at all. She walks to the center of the ring with one title over her shoulder and the other held high over her head.

[ Sasha Banks ] I've only got one thing to say!

The fans boo.

[ Sasha Banks ] I DID IT!

Bayley applauds behind her, smiling.

[ Sasha Banks ] I've beaten every tag team in this whole division! There's no one even LEFT to defend against! I got rid of Team Kick! I got rid of Lightning Star! And I just got rid of dollar store Bayley and bootleg Io Shirai! I know... I know what you're all thinking...

She sobs and wipes away a tear that is literally not even there.

[ Sasha Banks ] Sasha... you've done everything... you've done it all!

[ Bayley ] SHE'S DONE EVERYTHING, SHEEP!

[ Sasha Banks ] What else is there even to do now?! You've changed the game forever! You're living your dream! With all your money and success, you should retire to a private island--

[ Bayley ] AWAY FROM ALL OF YOU! YOU'RE ALL HATERS!

[ Sasha Banks ] Pam, please. You are stepping on my moment.


Bayley nods and takes a step back.

[ Sasha Banks ] Sasha, you should retire to a private island... but that would be wrong for me to rob all of my Stans of the gift... the GIFT that is seeing me, their IDOL, perform and live out my dream! Yes, it would be wrong... because I love all my Stans... but more importantly... because...

She tilts her head back and cackles.

[ Sasha Banks ] THE CHECKS STILL CLEAR!

[ Bayley ] OHHHHH! DOLLAR DOLLAR BILLS YA'LL!

[ Sasha Banks ] THANK YOU, PAPA JEFF!


Suddenly, fireworks explode from the rafters and dollar bills with Sasha's face on them begin raining down from the ceiling. The fans boo loudly. Sasha holds her hands out as the money falls all around her. Bayley jumps up and down excitedly.

[ Tony Schiavone ] What the hell!? Did you do this, Cube?!

[ Dr. Cube ] I swear I had nothing to do with this.


Sasha looks around and raises the microphone again.

[ Sasha Banks ] The checks still clear... but I'm tired of carrying this entire tag division on my back. And since I'm undefeated in SGW... since I've NEVER been pinned or submitted... I'm laying down a little challenge!

[ Tony Schiavone ] She is... she is absolutely not undefeated.

[ Sasha Banks ] For the TOKYO DOME in two weeks!


Huge pop!

[ Sasha Banks ] Io Shirai, you little NOBODY! You little NOTHING! I'm looking to add a little more gold to my collection... and some more ZEROES to my bank account! And the only way to do that... IS TO SNATCH YOUR WIG IN FRONT OF YOUR HOMETOWN CROWD! So, if you've got the guts... if you've got the HUMILITY to walk into a match you know you're going to LOSE... be there!


[ Bayley ] BE THERE OR BE SQUARE, SHEEP!

[ Sasha Banks ] Or don't accept the challenge. I'll sit on my bus and tweet and get paid anyway, bitch.


Sasha drops the microphone. She and Bayley leave the ring and walk to the back as the fans boo.




We go backstage quickly where we see Jinny watching just happened on a monitor backstage. She looks outraged, trembling with anger. Shayna Baszler stomps over and turns the monitor off before placing her hands on Jinny's shoulders and backing her away.

[ Shayna Baszler ] Hey, boss. No need to bother yourself with that.

[ Jinny ] Who... who does she think she is?!


Jinny looks at Shayna and swats her hands down.

[ Jinny ] And who do you think you are? Putting your hands on me.


Shayna smirks and backs up, putting her hands up.

[ Jinny ] Sasha Banks is supposed to be on MY team! How dare she stake claim to a shot at my championship! The title I never properly lost!


The camera pans over to reveal Ember Moon putting on her gear, getting ready for her match later tonight.

[ Ember Moon ] You did properly lose it, though.

[ Jinny ] Excuse me?

[ Ember Moon ] You literally lost the title in the ring.


Jinny raises an eyebrow.

[ Jinny ] Twat, aren't you supposed to be some sort of conspiracy spewing moon howler? You clearly viewed doctored footage! I am the longest reigning champion of any type in SGW history! I would never lose to some vile cretin from a third world country.

[ Shayna Baszler ] Actually, Japan is at the forefront of information and technology in this day and age. We could actually learn a lot from them as a country.

[ Jinny ] Who asked you, cunt?


The door to the dressing room opens up and Los Ice Creams walk in with Aliyah and Vanessa Borne on their arms. The fans pop huge. Ted Dibiase cackles and throws money in the air. They immediately sense the tension in the room. Jinny looks at them, furious.

[ Jinny ] You two! Get your shit together... I've got Sasha bloody Banks trying to take MY championship and you two are off having... ice cream! Tonight, we've got those three little Chinese dragons to ourselves and I intend to make a statement... when I pin Io Shirai's shoulders to the mat and prove that I am the rightful holder of that championship!


Jinny shakes her head, visibly frustrated.

[ Jinny ] Not Io Shirai...


Her eyes narrow.

[ Jinny ] And certainly not Sasha fucking Banks!


The camera pans over to reveal Britt Baker sitting in a chair in street clothes, filing her nails. The fans erupt in boos upon seeing her. She looks around, hearing the negative reaction, and sneers.

[ Britt Baker ] Why am I even here?

[ Aliyah ] Good question. Why ARE you here?

[ Vanessa Borne ] Disgusting. What a miscarriage of fashion.

[ Britt Baker ] Shut up, idiots. I'm just saying... I've got bigger things to worry about. I'm not even booked for this event. I could be helping Adam Cole, my boyfriend, plan out how we're taking the title from Kevin Nash.

[ Shayna Baszler ] It's called solidarity, stupid.


Baker stands up, looking annoyed.

[ Britt Baker ] I'm not stupid, uggo. I'm a dentist. I had to go to school for that, ya' know?

[ Shayna Baszler ] Well, you should get a refund.


Shayna and Britt go nose to nose. Ember Moon gets between them.

[ Ember Moon ] That's enough. Damn!


Ember turns and looks at Jinny.

[ Ember Moon ] You don't need to worry about Sasha Banks or Io Shirai, girl. Tonight, I'm taking Tessa Blanchard down. I'm making a STATEMENT. And that statement is that I'm gonna be the Elevation Champion... and I'm gonna cash it in to become the next SGW Women's World Champion.


Jinny smirks.

[ Jinny ] You need a straightjacket to go with that tin foil hat if you really believe that. Either way, there shall be no further fighting among you. You're all stupid and worthless and I hate you all... but I need you to work together so that I may reclaim my title. So do it.


Jinny turns and walks out of the room. Shayna looks at everyone, disappointed.

[ Shayna Baszler ] You've all really disappointed Jinny tonight.


Shayna shakes her head and walks out the door. Without saying a word, Aliyah and Vanessa follow. Ember Moon and Britt Baker stand and look at each other awkwardly, having been left alone with Dibiase and the Ice Creams. They look at the masked men eyeballing them.

[ Ember Moon ] Who do you think's under the masks?

[ Britt Baker ] Huh?

[ Ember Moon ] The Ice Creams. I bet there's a great mystery behind those masks.

[ Britt Baker ] I literally do not care.

[ Ember Moon ] I'm just sayin'.

[ Britt Baker ] You are so weird.


Fade.





Referee - Dusto Bunny | Time Limit - 30:00

The monstrous Dusto Bunny waits in the corner as Charlotte and Rhea stare each other down in the center of the ring. They both tease turning to return to their corners as the bell rings... but then they both turn around to Pearl Harbor the other, only to run into a flurry of forearms and right hands! The fans go nuts as both women throw bombs, hoping and praying that the other goes down first! Charlotte takes over out of nowhere with a knee lift to the mid-section and then tees off on Rhea with a knife edge chop, drawing a loud "WOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" from the fans in attendance! Charlotte continues teeing off until Rhea goes to the eyes! Charlotte turns, blinded temporarily, and Rhea runs and hits the ropes... nailing Charlotte with a brutal big boot!

[ Tony Schiavone ] Some might call this a dream match, Dr. Cube! Me? I think it's a blueprint for what women's wrestling should be in Solid Gold Wrestling! The best in the business colliding, jockeying for positioning in a division where anything can happen!

[ Dr. Cube ] It's two giant women who would be better suited performing as kaijus in my army, you mean! Look at them! Physical specimens whose only natural predator is the biggest kaiju of them all!

[ Tony Schiavone ] Tucor!

[ Dr. Cube ] No! Shoko Nakajima!


Rhea snatches Charlotte up by her hair and pulls her in for RIPTIDE but Charlotte lands behind her and whips her around. Rhea turns right into a knife edge chop... and then a brutal backhand strike to the face! The impact sends Rhea tumbling through the ropes! She lands on her feet and begins walking arond the ring, favoring her cheek. However, as she rounds the corner, she looks up and sees Charlotte coming down from the top with a MOONSAULT! The fans erupt and begin chanting "HOLY SHIT!" over and over! Charlotte quickly returns to her feet and throws the apron back. She fishes underneath the ring and finds... a kendo stick! The fans cheer loudly as Charlotte sizes Rhea up. Rhea gets up to all fours and Charlotte nails her across the back with it! Charlotte continues lashing Rhea until Rhea struggles back to her feet and catches it on the downswing! Rhea rips it from Charlotte's hands and then blasts her right in the head with it! The fans boo loudly! Charlotte goes down, palming her forehead at the point of impact. Rhea snaps the kendo stick over her knee and tosses the remains.

[ Tony Schiavone ] What a show of strength! This is two team captains trying to build momentum as they head into Body Count! And you know how important momentum is!

[ Dr. Cube ] Yes. Yes! Momentum is what drives us forward! Propels us! Without momentum, humanity would have never crawled out of the primordial ooze. They would've remained there... where they belong! Curse you, momentum! Curse you!


Ripley pulls Charlotte off the mat and whips her hard into the ring steps! Charlotte lands in a seated position and Rhea charges in... nailing Charlotte with a running knee to the face, driving her head into the steps! Ripley immediately pulls Charlotte up to her feet and pulls her in... RIPTIDE ON THE FLOOR! Ripley pulls Charlotte up, dead weight, and throws her under the bottom rope! Ripley follows her in and hooks her! ONE! TWO! THRE-- CHARLOTTE GETS A FOOT ON THE ROPE!

[ Tony Schiavone ] She almost had her!


Ripley pulls Charlotte back to her feet and goes for ANOTHER RIPTIDE but Charlotte slips out behind her and clips her knee! Running only on adrenaline, Charlotte hits the ropes... NATURAL SELECTION! Charlotte covers! ONE! TWO! THR-- BEA PRIESTLEY COMES OUT OF NOWHERE TO PULL CHARLOTTE OUT OF THE RING! The fans erupt in boos! Charlotte snaps and nails Priestley with a big right hand! Priestley staggers back and Charlotte goes to the timekeeper's table! She grabs the ring bell! Priestley charges at her and goes for a BICYCLE KNEE but Charlotte ducks it! She catches Bea on the turnaround with a BELL SHOT! Priestley tumble over the rail and into the front row! The fans pop huge!

[ Tony Schiavone ] Charlotte Flair has thwarted interference from Bea Priestley!

[ Dr. Cube ] Some monster she turned out to be!


Before Charlotte can capitalize any further, she's blasted from behind by Ripley! The fans erupt in boos as Ripley continues pummeling her and then throws her under the bottom rope! She follows her in but Charlotte is already up! Charlotte meets Ripley standing with a running BIG BOOT! Charlotte runs and goes straight to the top rope! Ripley struggles back to her feet... and Charlotte flies! HIGH CROSS BODY! RIPLEY FLOATS THROUGH! ONE! TWO! BEA PRIESTLEY HOLDS CHARLOTTE'S ANKLE DOWN FROM OUTSIDE! THREE!

WINNER
RHEA RIPLEY via PINFALL in 08:58

The fans erupt in boos as Ripley rolls out of the ring and grabs Bea Priestley, hustling up the ramp with her! Charlotte Flair looks on from the ring, furious.

[ Tony Schiavone ] With help from Bea Priestley, Rhea Ripley has stolen one tonight!

[ Dr. Cube ] This "moose" as the one called Freakzilla calls her... such muscle! Very impress! I like it! I like it a LOT!


Ripley celebrates while holding Priestley up as we fade out.




We go backtage where we see members of The Queen's Court watching what just happened on a monitor backstage. Tessa Blanchard has the Elevation Championship around her waist, already in her gear for later tonight. Deonna Purrazzo stands next to her, looking impressed.

[ Deonna Purrazzo ] Not bad... I think I could've done better.


Tessa raises an eyebrow.

[ Tessa Blanchard ] Seriously?

[ Deonna Purrazzo ] Actually, I know I could've done better.

[ Tessa Blanchard ] You've been here for like five minutes. How about you actually do something before you run your mouth. Go sit with the other undesirables, Virtuosa.


Deonna looks across the room where we see Ariel and Zahra Schreiber sitting at a table with a crystal ball on it. Zahra looks at her phone with disinterest.

[ Deonna Purrazzo ] Yeah, I'm not going over there.


Before their exchange can go any further, Charlotte storms into the room, covered in sweat. She looks pissed off and walks right up to Tessa, getting in her face.

[ Charlotte Flair ] Where the hell were you?!

[ Tessa Blanchard ] What's your problem?!

[ Charlotte Flair ] You four have just been hanging out back here while I'm fighting for my life against Rhea Ripley and Bea Priestley!? It was two on one!

[ Tessa Blanchard ] I thought you had it in under control.


Charlotte looks down at the title on Tessa's shoulder and then back up into her eyes.

[ Charlotte Flair ] We're supposed to be a team.

[ Tessa Blanchard ] Please.


She rolls her eyes.

[ Tessa Blanchard ] We're not a team. We're just five girls that you lumped together to try and help you get into the Body Count match. Everybody knows that as soon as the elimination match is over and these three idiots are gone, you and me are gonna be fighting tooth and nail for that belt.

[ Deonna Purrazzo ] Did you seriously just group me in with those two again?


Tessa turns and points right in Deonna's face.

[ Tessa Blanchard ] Speak again, little girl, and I will literally eat your FACE.


Charlotte grabs Tessa by the shoulder and whips her around to face her.

[ Charlotte Flair ] I'm not done talking to you, Blanchard! Stop focusing on the help and get your eyes on the big picture. You're right. We're gonna be the only two survivors on our team and that means we're gonna go head to head in the Body Count match with the Women's World title on the line--


Purrazzo shoves herself between them.

[ Deonna Purrazzo ] Okay, seriously! I get not caring about those two because...


Deonna looks over at Zahra and Ariel.

[ Deonna Purrazzo ] ...because... just... damn.


She shakes her head, getting serious.

[ Deonna Purrazzo ] But I am NOT being taken lightly! I'm here to compete and win! I'm one of the best technical wrestlers in the entire world! We can work together to make it to the Body Count match and then find out who really IS the best!


Charlotte and Tessa look at each other.

[ Charlotte Flair ] We actually could use a Malenko.

[ Tessa Blanchard ] I don't hate it.

[ Charlotte Flair ] You're the Tully, though.


Tessa looks indignant.

[ Tessa Blanchard ] Bullshit. I'm obviously the Flair.

[ Charlotte Flair ] I am LITERALLY the Flair.

[ Tessa Blanchard ] Whatever. I'm the leader.

[ Charlotte Flair ] You're not, but if that's what you wanna believe, go right on ahead.

[ Deonna Purrazzo ] So, we're good then? The three of us get to survive?

[ Charlotte Flair ] We'll talk about it.


Charlotte, Tessa, and Deonna walk out of the room, leaving Zahra and Ariel sitting in silence. We slowly fade out.





Referee - Nurse Ratchet | Time Limit - 30:00

The ring is fully outfitted with skyscrapers, houses, match box cars, and bridges. Outside the ring, there are kiddie pools which represent the neighboring ocean... and on the stage, we see the brainwashed Abyss standing next to Eve Torres, tied to a chair. The fans are booing loudly at this sight, displeased with the nefarious Cube's kidnapping shenanigans. Inside the ring, Hikaru Shida and Shoko Nakajima smile evilly, at home looming over the buildings and citizens of this hastily crafted cityscape... across the ring from them, Nia Jax and Tamina Snuka are huge and ready for action.

[ Dr. Cube ] Yes... YES! The despicable duo of Nia Jax and Tamina Snuka are clearly out of their element! They know nothing of what it is to be GIGANTIC AND INTIMIDATING! Not like my Kaijus! There's is no monster greater in stature than Shoko Nakajima!

[ Tony Schiavone ] She's... she's 4'10"!

[ Dr. Cube ] LOOK HOW SHE TOWERS OVER THE HORIZON!


As soon as the bell rings, Nia Jax charge across the ring, ripping through cardboard buildings! Tamina follows and they mug Shida and Shoko in the corner, raining clubbing blows down on top of them as the fans lose their minds! Nurse Ratchet, the referee for the match, looks from side to side, tilting her head as she tries to understand exactly what she's seeing. Tamina pairs off with Shida and hip tosses through her a bridge made from popsicle sticks! Shida sits up, crying out in pain... and Nia Jax hoists Shoko Nakajima over her head in a gorilla press position! She walks Shoko to the ropes... and LAUNCHES HER FROM THE RING TO A KIDDIE POOL BELOW!

[ Tony Schiavone ] OH MY! OH MY GOODNESS!

[ Dr. Cube ] Hm... impressive show of strength. For one to lift a creature the size of Shoko Nakajima, must possess ginormous strength! It will be a shame to vaporize such a monster!


Shoko lays still in a kiddie pool, water swishing around her violently. Nia Jax returns her attention to the ring. Jax and Tamina lift Shida up and whips her into the ropes. Shida ducks a double clothesline and rebounds off the rope, nailing Tamina Snuka with a FLYING KNEE STRIKE! Tamina falls backward through through a pair of skyscrapers! Jax immediately snatches Shida by the hair and ragdolls her violently before throwing her into the corner. Jax begins throwing bombs as Shida covers up... and then Nurse Ratchet grabs Nia Jax by the hair and pulls her away! The fans boo loudly as Jax is restrained by Nurse Ratchet!

[ Tony Schiavone ] What is this!? She's supposed to be an impartial official!

[ Dr. Cube ] Don't be a fool, Tony! Do you really think I chose these referees for MY event because I wanted them to call it down the middle!? I want to win! I WANT MY BIG KAIJUS TO WINNNNN!

[ Tony Schiavone ] You're a monster, Dr. Cube!

[ Dr. Cube ] Worse, Tony. I'm a scientist!


With Nia Jax restrained, Hikaru Shida charges and DRILLS Jax with a flying knee strike! Nurse Ratchet throws Jax to the side and she starts to get up into a seated position right as Shida comes off the ropes with TAMASHII NO THREE COUNT-- NO! JAX CATCHES HER KNEE! Jax stands up, holding Shida's leg! She wiggles her finger back and forth, "NAH-UH-UH SHIDA! NO KNEES TO FACES TONIGHT, LITTLE GIRL!" She pulls Shida in and rips her head off with a LARIAT! Shida turns inside out and flies through a parking garage with gives off a series of small cracks and pops, like it was full of Snap Pops! Nia Jax is all fired up! She pulls Shida up off the mat and hoists her up onto her shoulders for a SAMOAN DROP-- NO! NURSE RATCHET CLIPS NIA JAX'S KNEE! Nia Jax goes down and SHOKO NAKAJIMA, soaking wet, FLIES OFF THE TOP ROPE ONTO JAX WITH A SPLASH! Nia Jax rolls out of the ring and Tamina Snuka rises to her feet... just in time for Shoko to take her knee out! Tamina goes down to one knee just as Shida flies off the ropes, kicks off a skyscraper, and nails an assisted TAMASHII NO THREE COUNT RIGHT TO THE FACE! Shida and Shoko both sit on top of Tamina and Nurse Ratchet drops down slowly... ONE! TWO! THREE!

WINNERS
THE BIG KAIJUS via PINFALL in 06:02

The fans erupt in boos. Nia Jax tries to climb back into the ring but she's restrained by Cube Security! Shida and Shoko both put the boots to Tamina in the ring before Shoko picks up an ENTIRE CARDBOARD SKYSCRAPER AND DROPS IT ACROSS TAMINA'S BACK!

[ Tony Schiavone ] Shoko Nakajima, you monster! You... you... SAVAGE!

[ Dr. Cube ] Yes! FINISH HER OFF!


Dr. Cube stands up behind his desk with a microphone in his hand.

[ Dr. Cube ] Abyss, you brainless idiot! Take Eve Torres away, to my private chamber! Minions! Restrain Nia Jax, lest she interfere further with my plans! Big Kaijus... DO WHAT YOU DO BEST! DESTROY!


Abyss picks up Eve Torres in her chair and carries her off the stage. The fans boo loudly. Shida and Shoko tear the makeshift city apart and rain debris down on Tamina Snuka, burying her. They flex their arms and roar. As the go corner to corner, showing off their impressive size and strength, Cube Soldiers hit the ring and restrain Tamina! Nia Jax tries to fight the security off of her but she can't! The Cube Soldiers are now kidnapping Tamina Snuka!

[ Nia Jax ] YOU WON'T GET AWAY WITH THIS, CUBE!

[ Dr. Cube ] Oh, but I already have!


Nia Jax suddenly rises up, throwing the Cube security guards off of her! She charges up the ramp, giving chase to the men carrying away Tamina Snuka but she's too late! Dr. Cube takes his seat back at the announce table as Nia Jax disappears behind the curtain.

[ Tony Schiavone ] What have you done, Dr. Cube?! First, you've kidnapped Eve Torres! Now you have Tamina Snuka! This is absolutely despicable behavior!

[ Dr. Cube ] Despicable... or really REALLY SMART?

[ Tony Schiavone ] Despicable!

[ Dr. Cube ] Hm.


Inside the ring, Hikaru Shida and Shoko Nakajima continue celebrating. Hikaru Shida grabs a microphone and thumps the top a few times, making sure it's on. The fans begin booing and then start chanting "PLEASE DON'T TALK" but Hikaru Shida does it anyway! Villain!

[ Hikaru Shida ] BIG KAIJUS... TWEENSTAH CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH!


She points into the camera.

[ Hikaru Shida ] WE WANT! WE EARN! GIVE IT NOW!


Shoko grabs the microphone and pulls it down to her mouth.

[ Shoko Nakajima ] BANKU AND-UH BAY-REEEEEE! YOU NO MATCH... FOR STUH-RONG KAIJU! BEST-UH KAIJU! BIG KAIJU!

[ Hikaru Shida ] MIC-UH DUH-ROP!


Shida drops the microphone and the the Kaijus leave the ring. What a disaster. Eve Torres is still in Dr. Cube's possession! Now Tamina Snuka has been kidnapped. What will Nia Jax do!? And when will the Boss 'n Hug Connection meet the Big Kaijus for the championship!?




We hear a crash as we head backstage and see Becky Lynch losing her cool. Becky is still in her gear from the opening match, not looking happy at all. Scarlett Bordeaux stands with her back to the wall, arms folded against her chest. She just watches Becky come unglued with a look of amusement.

[ Becky Lynch ] Ye' gotta be bloody kiddin' me, yea'?!


Shotzi Blackheart tries to reason with her.

[ Shotzi Blackheart ] You gotta chill out, Bex. That shit wasn't your fault!

[ Becky Lynch ] First, fookin' Sonya Deville costs me m' shot for the SHOCK women's title 'n now Dr. Cube's kidnapped Tamina! How are we supposed t' win at Body Count if Sonya Deville's runnin' 'round all willy nilly 'n Nia Jax's head is up in the clouds, worryin' 'bout Dr. Cube!?

[ Shotzi Blackheart ] None of this stuff tonight matters. All that matters is how we march into Body Count and TAKE CARE OF BUSINESS!


Scarlett saunters up to them.

[ Scarlett Bordeaux ] You couple of fives just need to let me do the work.

[ Shotzi Blackheart ] What the hell did you just call me?


Scarlett looks Shotzi up and down.

[ Scarlett Bordeaux ] Sorry. You're actually a three.

[ Shotzi Blackheart ] Douchebag.


Becky shoves Scarlett back.

[ Becky Lynch ] Man, sod off will ya'!? We're havin' a grown-up talk 'ere!


Scarlett backs up, putting her hands up.

[ Scarlett Bordeaux ] Fine, whatever.


Scarlett leaves the room. Becky sits down, looking pissed.

[ Becky Lynch ] Ever since I came 'ere t' SGW, I been gettin' overlooked. Don't these fools know who I am? What I'm 'bout? I'm the MAN! I went t' SHOCK t' turn that place around... show 'em what a star I can be... Sonya Deville's goin' outta her way t' bring me down... screw that.

[ Shotzi Blackheart ] Fuck 'em.

[ Becky Lynch ] We have t' succeed at Body Count, Shotzi.

[ Shotzi Blackheart ] Dude, we got this.


Before they can continue, the door to the room opens up and Bayley walks into the room. Sasha Banks follows her in with both SGW Twinstar titles. The fans erupt in boos.

[ Bayley ] What's up, sheeple? Is this the team meeting?

[ Shotzi Blackheart ] Yeah. What's she doing here, though? She's not on this team. Not exactly smart to talk strategy with the enemy in the room.


Sasha looks around.

[ Sasha Banks ] What's that, Bayley? Do you hear something?

[ Bayley ] I don't hear ANYTHING!

[ Sasha Banks ] I could've sworn I heard an annoying little insect chirping.

[ Bayley ] Nope. I listened real hard, Sasha--


Bayley leans right down into Shotzi's face.

[ Bayley ] I heard... NOBODY!

[ Sasha Banks ] That's what I thought.


Sasha turns her back to Becky and Shotzi and raises her phone up, taking a selfie. Bayley leans into the shot, throwing up peace signs. Sasha speaks aloud as she types.

[ Sasha Banks ] Legit Boss... meets Legit... Losers! Hashtag Busted... hashtag ratchet losers... hashtag trashy hoes... hashtag rich and famous... hashtag papa jeff... hashtag gone but not forgotten... hashtag jajajajaja... aaaaaand POSTED.

Without another word, Sasha and Bayley leave the room. Becky and Shotzi look at each other angrily, shaking their heads as we fade to black.





Referee - Nice Dr. Cube Clone #69 | Time Limit - 60:00

The very nice clone of Dr. Cube holds up the Elevation Championship and then calls for the bell to begin the match. Tessa Blanchard and Ember Moon stare each other down for a moment before Tessa abruptly pie faces Ember, almost knocking her down. Ember fires right back, nailing Tessa with a huge forearm that almost causes her knees to buckle! The two women instantly begin trading big forearms before Ember takes over with a knee lift and hits the ropes, taking Tessa down to the mat with a flying headscissors! Tessa immediately rolls out of the ring to the floor! Tessa begins walking around the ring, regaining her bearings, when Ember flies through the ropes, tackling her with a suicide dive that causes both women to crash into the guardrail!

[ Dr. Cube ] Yes! The laws of gravity do NOT apply here!

[ Tony Schiavone ] Ember Moon is a death defying athlete! A promising new talent that only recently showed up and has been making great waves, as evidenced by the fact that she has already earned an Elevation title shot!


Ember springs right back up to her feet and grabs Tessa by the hair. She goes to pull Tessa to her feet but Tessa grabs Ember' tights and pulls her down face first into the rail! The fans boo loudly as Tessa gets back on her feet and begins putting the boots to Ember, choking her against the rail! After a few seconds of this, Tessa pulls Ember up by her hair and whips her into the rail! Tessa follows her in but Ember stops herself before impact, leaps onto the rail... and nails Tessa with a flying crossbody!

[ Tony Schiavone ] What impact! Ember Moon is EXPLOSIVE!

[ Dr. Cube ] If only she were TRULY explosive, Tony! Wouldn't that be... interesting. Yes! VERY INTERESTING!


Ember gets back to her feet and pulls Tessa back up. She tosses Tessa under the bottom rope. Tessa rolls to the center of the ring. Ember climbs the turnbuckles from the outside and perches on the top rope. She waits for Tessa to stand. Tessa slowly gets up and Ember flies... ECLIPSSSSSSSSSE! NO! TESSA DROPKICKS HER OUT OF THE AIR! Tessa rolls right back to her feet and pulls Ember up, keeping the wrist. She slings Ember out and pulls her back in... RIPCORD ELBOW STRIKE! Ember is out on her feet! Tessa turns and hits the ropes... but Ember comes alive out of nowhere and nails a SHOTGUN DROPKICK! Both women are down!

[ Tony Schiavone ] I can't believe it! Both of these women are unstoppable!


Ember Moon kips up out of nowhere to a huge pop! Tessa slowly rises to her feet, gripping the middle rope. She slowly turns around and Ember charges at her... but Tessa drops and pulls down the top rope! Ember tumbles over onto the apron! Tessa immediately nails her in the jaw with a forearm and hooks her for a suplex.. but Ember sandbags her... and SUPLEXES TESSA TO THE FLOOR! Both women are down on the outside! They both begin to stir and struggle back to their feet. They both rise to one knee and face off! They begin slugging each other with forearms before they fight all the way back to their feet! They continue slugging away at each other until Tessa punches Ember in the throat! Tessa takes over and tosses Ember under the bottom rope. Ember rolls to the center of the ring and Tessa climbs to the top turnbuckle. Ember slowly gets to her feet and Tessa flies... MAGNUMMMMM! NO! EMBER SIDESTEPS THE MOVE AND TESSA GETS NOTHING BUT MAT! Tessa instantly starts to rise back to her feet, favoring her back... and Ember Moon hits the ropes... SPRINGBOARD ECLIPSE! SHE GOT ALL OF IT! But the impact causes Tessa to roll under the bottom rope to the floor!

[ Tony Schiavone ] NO! NO NO! THAT COULD COST HER VALUABLE TIME!

[ Dr. Cube ] Time! All we have is TIME, Tony!

[ Tony Schiavone ] What are you even talking about!?


Frustrated, Ember rolls out of the ring and tries to lift Tessa up, but Tessa is all dead weight! She finally gets Tessa onto the apron and shoves her under the bottom rope. Ember follows her in and covers! ONE! TWO! THR-- TESSA GETS A FOOT ON THE ROPE! The fans erupt in boos! Ember can't believe it! Ember points to the ropes and begins climbing. Tessa slowly returns to her feet and Ember flies... ECLIPSE! NO! Tessa falls out of the way and there's no water in the pool! Ember lands hard and Tessa springs to action, snatching Ember over in a CRUCIFIX PIN and dragging her over! ONE! TWO! THREE!

WINNER & STILL CHAMPION
TESSA BLANCHARD via PINFALL in 07:41

The fans are loudly chanting "THAT WAS AWESOME" as both women lay still in the middle of the ring. Finally, they stir and both climb up to their knees, kneeling only a foot away from each other.

[ Tony Schiavone ] What a match! What a fight!

[ Dr. Cube ] Ember Moon would make quite the werewolf kaiju, however I am not sure I have a place in my army for someone who believes the moon landing was faked!

[ Tony Schiavone ] Imagine that! Something too extreme for Dr. Cube! Who are you to doubt Ember Moon's conspiracy theories?!

[ Dr. Cube ] Don't be a fool, Tony! Of course the moon landing was real. I was there! It was my idea! If only my terraforming technology was then where it is now!


As the fans give them a standing ovation, Tessa offers her hand. Ember shakes it and then rolls out of the ring, leaving the stage for the champion to celebrate. Tessa Blanchard collects the championship and holds it over her head, having successfully completed her first defense.




We find ourselves in the outer reaches of space again. Cube Prime is pacing back and forth among the cosmos. The live crowd boos loudly because, truly... nothing is more outlaw than this budget green screen bullshit. He rubs his hands together deviously and stops in front of the camera, speaking with an annoying echo effect on his voice.

[ Cube Prime ] Insects...

He sounds angry.

[ Cube Prime ] Insects, all of you!

He holds his hand up and clenches a fist.

[ Cube Prime ] You do not believe in my REAL ULTIMATE POWER? The Goddess of SHOCK Championship was not enough for you? NYAHHH! PHOOEY! Then I shall give you another example of my limitless potential!

He holds his hands out in front of him, tilting his large Cube head back.

[ Cube Prime ] Gaze into the future with me... the time is August 22nd, 2020! The place... is Korakuen Hall in Tokyo, Japan! The event? MUAHAHA... SHE-1... THE RING OF DREAMS! YES! I CAN SEE IT NOW... I CAN SEE... SIXTEEN WOMEN... A BRACKET! YES!

He chuckles and nods.

[ Cube Prime ] A MOST COMPETITIVE BRACKET, INDEED!


Suddenly, the bracket appears.

We can still hear Cube's voice over the bracket.

[ Cube Prime ] One night... single elimination... only one woman may reign supreme... earning an SGW Women's World Title Shot... a most valuable GOLDEN TICKET... and... YES! A TROPHY! A TROPHY MADE FROM THE FINEST EARTH MATERIALS! WHAT A PRIZE! And who... who is the winner?! I can see her so clearly... I can't believe it... SHE wins!? AMAZING!

Dramatic pause.

[ Cube Prime ] You heard it here first, humans. The winner of the first annual SHE-1 Tournament will be ZZZZZZzzzzz---

The feed cuts out.

Fade.





Referee - Tucor | Time Limit - 30:00

As soon as the bell rings, Jinny and the Highers rush their opponents and begin brawling with them! Aliyah grabs Starlight Kid by the mask and begins ragdolling her before throwing her through the ropes to the floor, following her out! Vanessa Borne takes two handfuls of AZM's hair and slings her around violently before throwing her in the corner and putting the boots to her! Jinny and Io Shirai trade forearms like women possessed as the fans go wild!

[ Tony Schiavone ] It's main event time, folks, and this is what the fans have been waiting for! An opportunity to see Io Shirai and Jinny get their hands on each other one more time!

[ Dr. Cube ] I want the one in the mask for my collection!

[ Tony Schiavone ] Starlight Kid?! She would NEVER!

[ Dr. Cube ] I never said she'd have a choice, Tony!


Jinny whips Io Shirai into the ropes and goes for a clothesline but Io ducks it just as AZM hits a drop toe hold on Vanessa Borne, dropping her across the middle rope! Io Shirai flows straight into a TIGER FEINT KICK that sends Vanessa Borne flying! Io then rotates out and nails Jinny with a discus lariat that turns her inside out! Jinny and Vanessa Borne are both down in the center of the ring! AZM and Io Shirai both climb to the top rope on opposite sides of the ring... FLYING DOUBLE STOMP ON BORNE BY AZM! MOONSAULT FROM IO SHIRAI ON JINNY! It's a double pin! ONE! TWO! THR-- ALIYAH TACKLES TUCOR FROM THE SIDE, BREAKING THE PIN!

[ Dr. Cube ] Correction! I want THAT one for my collection! Any woman with the gall, the tenacity to physically manhandle Tucor... THAT'S MY KIND OF WOMAN!


[ Tony Schiavone ] Monster! Aliyah would never!


Pause.

[ Tony Schiavone ] Actually, for the right price--


Tucor struggles to get back to his feet as Aliyan runs over and boots AZM in the head. She pulls AZM off of Borne and whips her into the ropes. Aliyah goes for a clothesline but AZM ducks it! AZM rebounds off the ropes and nails Aliyah with a SPRINGBOARD DROPKICK! Aliyah goes down and rolls under the bottom rope to the floor! Vanessa Borne slowly gets up. Io Shirai and AZM each take an arm and whip her into the ropes. They go for a double clothesline but Borne ducks it and rebounds off the ropes, nailing AZM with a clothesline Jinny comes out of nowhere with a ROLLING KICK TO IO! The fans erupt in boos! Borne takes AZM by the hair and drags her out of the ring! Borne boots AZM in the stomach and throws her hard into the guardrail! Starlight Kid comes to life and attacks Borne from behind before Aliyah returns to action and knocks her down with a forearm to the back!

[ Tony Schiavone ] It's breaking down in Tulsa tonight!

[ Dr. Cube ] TULSA?! You swine!


Jinny savagely beats on Shirai in the ring, mounting her and drilling her with forearms before using her thumbs to try and claw out her eyes! The fans boo loudly as Jinny stands, guiding Io up to her feet by a handful of hair. Jinny nails Io with a forearm to the head and then whips her into the ropes! Io leaps onto the middle and comes back with an ASAI MOONSAULT but Jinny runs underneath it! Io lands on her feet! Jinny rebounds off the ropes and nails Io with ANOTHER rolling kick! Io goes down and Jinny rolls back to her feet! She snatches Io up by her hair and takes her wrist... ACID RAINMAKERRRRRR! IO TURNS INSIDE OUT! Jinny covers! ONE! TWO! THR-- AZM BREAKS THE PIN!

[ Dr. Cube ] This is... this is so exciting!

[ Tony Schiavone ] It's almost like this really IS the greatest night in the history of our sport!


Jinny gets up and grabs AZM by the hair. She whips her into the ropes and goes for a clothesline but AZM ducks it. As soon as AZM hits the ropes, Aliyah and Vanessa Borne grab her ankles and pull her under the bottom rope! They beat AZM down to all fours and then pull her in... where they work together to give her a DOUBLE TEAM POWERBOMB ON THE FLOOR! They look very satisfied with themselves... until they turn around and catch a MOONSAULT FROM STARLIGHT KID TO THE FLOOR! The fans erupt and begin chanting "HOLY SHIT!" over and over!

[ Tony Schiavone ] This is insane! I'm... I'm speechless!


All four women are down on the outside! Jinny pulls Io up to her knees. Io fires away with forearms to Jinny's mid-section but Jinny completely no-sells them. Once she has Io up to her feet, she goes for the ACID RAINMAKER but Io ducks it and runs for the corner... leaps to the middle turnbuckle, onto the top turnbuckle... MOONSAULT! JINNY TAKES ALL OF IT! Io covers! ONE! TWO! THRE-- JINNY KICKS OUT! The fans erupt in boos! Io can't believe it! Suddenly, the boos get even louder as Rhea Ripley makes her way down to the ring.

[ Tony Schiavone ] What is Rhea Ripley doing out here?!

[ Dr. Cube ] She is certainly upping the KAIJU quotient for this match!


Ripley eyes Io Shirai angrily and throws up the apron. She finds a steel chair and begins stalking the ringside area with it, stepping over the barely stirring bodies of Lightning Star and the Highers. Io is so distracted by Rhea's presence that Jinny clubs her from behind and snatches her back up... nailing her with the ACID RAINMAKER! IO TURNS INSIDE OUT! Jinny wastes no time going for a pin, she pulls Io in and picks her up in the STYLE CLASH... and Rhea Ripley slides the steel chair into the ring! STYLE CLASH ON THE STEEL CHAIR! Jinny rolls her over into a pinning predicament! ONE! TWO! THREE!

WINNERS
JINNY & THE HOUSE OF HIGHERS
via PINFALL in 11:02

Rhea Ripley stands outside the ring, smiling evilly as Jinny rolls off of Io. Aliyah and Vanessa Borne return to their feet and collect themselves before rolling into the ring. They both pick Io up and hold her in place as Jinny walks a lap around the ring, smiling.

[ Tony Schiavone ] What's going on here! This is ridiculous! Jinny just became the first person to pin Io Shirai in SGW, she should be satisfied with that! Move on! Get out of the ring!

[ Dr. Cube ] Something horrible is soon to happen, Tony! I can feel it! I like it!


Pause.

[ Dr. Cube ] I LIKE IT A LOT!


Jinny produces a pair of scissors and prepares to cut Io Shirai's hair but here comes HYPER MISAO on her bicycle, covered in trash and wearing the Goddess of SHOCK Championship on her head! She slams full speed into the apron which launches her between the bottom and middle ropes and into the ring! She scrambles back to her feet and nails Jinny from behind! The fans go wild as Hyper Misao and Jinny throw hands as the scissors fall by the wayside! Io Shirai fights her way free from the Highers, nailing Aliyah with a boot to the stomach before elbowing Borne in the mouth! Starlight Kid and AZM try to enter the ring but Rhea Ripley stops them, throwing Starlight Kid HELICOPTER STYLE into the ring steps and then delivering RIPTIDE TO AZM on the floor!

[ Tony Schiavone ] GOOD LORD! THOSE ARE HER OWN PARTNERS! WHY!?


Rhea Ripley stands outside the ring, smiling as AZM and Kid writhe around on the mat! Hyper Misao continues fighting with Jinny until Jinny ducks a clothesline and nails Misao with the ACID RAINMAKER! Io Shirai nails Jinny from behind with a forearm and then hits the ropes... IO GALAXY METEOR! Io points to the ropes and leaps onto the top! But before she can fly, Rhea Ripley climbs onto the apron and pushes her off! Io crashes and burns but scrambles to her feet just in time to catch a BICYCLE KNEE FROM BEA PRIESTLEY!

[ Tony Schiavone ] DAMMIT, BEA! YOU HARLOT! YOU SHAMELESS HUSSY!

[ Dr. Cube ] I like your fire, Tony! I would much like to harness it for one of my experiments!


Rhea Ripley climbs into the ring, having claimed the SGW Women's Worl Championship from the timekeeper's table. Jinny rolls out of the ring, escaping up the ramp with Aliyah and Borne at her side, staring up at the ring where Rhea Ripley and Bea Priestley stand over Io Shirai, Hyper Misao, and Lightning Star.

[ Tony Schiavone ] This is NOT how I expected this show to end... but that's all the time we have folks! Join us again in two weeks when we're in Tokyo, Japan for The Ecstasy of Gold! Damn you, Rhea Ripley! Damn you, Jinny! And damn you, Bea Priestley! Just... just... DAMN IT ALL!

[ Dr. Cube ] Good night, everyone... and remember...


Dramatic pause.

[ Dr. Cube ] Genetic experimentation on humans is only a crime against humanity... if you get caught.


[ Tony Schiavone ] Hey, what?


End transmission.
