JUNE 30TH, 2022 STUDIO MERLOT NAPA VALLEY, CA IN RING... The crowd is electric for such a big night filled with qualifying and championship matches. Studio Merlot is packed, and would usually be filled with random chants for their favorite wrestlers, but instead, they're all enamored with what's going on in the ring. "Enforcer” Anthony Cross is sitting in a steel chair in the middle of the ring. Anthony has his right thumb and right middle finger in empty vintage glass soda bottles, and a microphone in his left hand. He waits for the crowd to settle a bit before he begins to bang the two soda bottles together.
ANTHONY CROSS: Dona… Dona come out to play.
Anthony smiles and continues to clink the bottles together.
ANTHONY CROSS: Dona… come out to play.
Anthony continues to clink the bottles together. The crowd begins to "ooo" and "boo" Enforcer as he continues to call out his opponent...
ANTHONY CROSS: Dona… come out to play!!!
Anthony slides the two bottles off of his fingers and tosses them aside. The crowd is hopeful that Dona comes out and starts to chant, but Cross cuts them off.
ANTHONY CROSS: Dona, I have got to admit that you are taking up way too much of my time. Why are you even attempting to step up to me tonight? I seriously want to know because, when I should be solely focusing on becoming NVR World Heavyweight Champion, I have to deal with your punk ass, Dona.
The crowd boos Cross, and an angered look comes over Anthony’s face as he stands up to his feet. He kicks the chair backward, walks forward to the ring ropes, and stares out at the entrance ramp.
ANTHONY CROSS: We all saw at Acid Grap a couple of months ago how you had to cheat to steal a victory from me. Which I can certainly appreciate but the fact that you did it to me obviously doesn’t sit well with me. Which means this needs to be rectified TONIGHT because I need to have NVR gold back in my possession sooner rather than later. Dona, you are in my way of getting what I want. That means I must destroy you and-"
The crowd explodes as "Bulletproof" by Godsmack begins to play. Cross braces, ready to fight, but he doesn't think to look behind him. Dona Rotten enters the ringside area from the crowd and slides in behind Enforcer. She grabs the chair and goes to swing at Cross, but he realizes what's happening from fan reactions just in time. He's able to kick the chair out of her hands with a big boot, and he quickly grabs one of the glass bottles. He tries to hit Dona with it, but she ducks and grabs the other bottle. Cross and Rotten both turn at the same time and CRACK EACH OTHER IN THE EHAD WITH THE GLASS BOTTLES!!! The referees, ring hands, and a couple of security guards pull the two off each other until Valentina Lovelace can announce the match and the timekeeper can start it.OPENING MATCH NO DISQUALIFICATION SINGLES MATCH ANTHONY CROSS vs DONA ROTTEN VALENTINA LOVELACE: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THIS IS YOUR OPENING MATCH AND IT IS A NO DISQUALIFICATIONS MATCH!!! LET THEM FIGHT!!! LET THEM FIGHT!!! LET THEM FIGHT!!! VALENTINA LOVELACE: Introducing first, and already in the ring… “Bulletproof” by Godsmack plays for a moment, as Junior Referee Stephanie Ledbetter and her helpers release Dona and allow her to get set up in the corner for her match. VALENTINA LOVELACE: And also in the ring, her opponent, ... “Natural Born Killaz” By Ice Cube & Dr. Dre plays for a moment as the 3 security guards holding Enforcer back slowly let go of him. Jeff the Ref stands in the middle of the two, hoping they will wait until the bell rings, despite them both being cut open already. Jeff the Ref remains between the two wrestlers long enough for Valentina to quickly rush out of the ring and then signals for the match to start. VALENTINA LOVELACE: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN... THE WINNER OF THIS MATCH... VIA PINFALL... ANTHONY CROSS!!! Cross stands over Dona’s body and spits on her. They’re both bloody and exhausted, but Anthony Cross was more than happy to have Dona in his rear view now. The crowd boos as he taunts them because he had just defeated one of NVR’s Fan Favorite originals. Rotten rolls to the outside and tries to find consolation by joining the crowd in a “Fuck Enforcer” chant, but Cross couldn’t hear it over the sound of his self-praises. He motions that he’s coming for a title as we go to the commentary booth. WARHEAD WILLIAMS: Cross is not endearing himself with the fans after his victory over Dona Rotten here. K.T. ANDERSON: WHO CARES ABOUT WHAT THE FANS THINK???

RECORDED EARLIER…“Being lost isn't the same as being nowhere…” Fade in. DJ Danger sits at the steps just outside of the Studio Merlot. Dressed in black running shorts, a white Roots t-shirt, and a pair of black and white Jordans. DJ DANGER: Being lost is worse because there's the false hope that you might be found. But the bad news for Noah Ortega is that he has been found. I see you, Noah. And right now? You’re in my FUCKING way. Ortega, this match we got coming up… I’m not gonna lie. I need this. I NEED to be in the American Thunder Dome, not just because I’m better than you but because of the opportunity that gives me. DJ pushes himself off the steps and stands up. He walks towards the camera and stares into it, making sure those who were watching had his full attention. DJ DANGER: I am going to be NVR’s next World Champion. Whether it’s Izzy Van Doren or Tapp or Nevada Brooks. You lock me in that cage and I promise you no one is coming out alive except me. I see YOU… Leader of the Lost. And I promise you, after tonight? You’re gonna wish you were never found. With that Danger walks off camera and the scene cuts elsewhere!

AMERICAN THUNDER DOME QUALIFIER MATCH DJ DANGER vs NOAH ORTEGA
VALENTINA LOVELACE: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THIS MATCH IS AN AMERICAN THUNDERDOME MATCH!!! D-J DAN-JER!!! OR-TE-GA!! D-J DAN-JER!!! OR-TE-GA!! D-J DAN-JER!!! OR-TE-GA!!! VALENTINA LOVELACE: Introducing first... KNOCK, KNOCK IT OUT THE BLOCK, DJ KNOCK, KNOCK IT OUT THE BLOCK, DJ DJ Danger’s music plays as the lights start to go in and out with the beat. As the first verse of Action Bronson’s “Dmtri” begins to play, DJ shoots out of the curtain with his arms raised. He takes a look out to the crowd with a smile. DJ Danger begins to go down the ramp, smiling at the fans as he looks out around the arena. He takes a moment to soak in the atmosphere, before running up and sliding into the ring. The New Danger heads to the corner, climbs up to the middle rope, and poses for the fans before his music dies. VALENTINA LOVELACE: And his opponent... As the lights in the arena begin to dim, "Afraid of Us” by Jonwayne plays through the speaker. Noah Ortega slowly emerges from the curtain, staring out at the crowd. Stopping on the top of the entrance ramp, Ortega pauses for a moment as he bows his head. Suddenly, he stretches one arm up, pointing to the ceiling and screaming “FOLLOW ME”. From there he begins to walk down the entrance ramp, all cool, calm, and collected. Once reaching the edge of the ring, Ortega leaps onto the apron and pauses for a moment, observing the reaction from the audience before entering the ring. Hoisting himself onto the top rope, Noah points his finger up again and yells “FOLLOW ME”. VALENTINA LOVELACE: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN... THE WINNER OF THIS MATCH... VIA PINFALL... NOAH ORTEGA!!! Chad and Thad are already halfway up the ramp before DJ even comes to. They taunt him, and realistically… so does Noah. The crowd firmly sympathizes with DJ and Noah Ortega doesn’t care. He calls them all lost and tells them all to follow him to ATD because DJ isn’t going there. More boos for Noah, as DJ gets up and stares down Chad and Thad as they are still gloating from the stage. WARHEAD WILLIAMS: WHAT BUSINESS DOES CHAD KASSIDY AND HIS LOOK-A-LIKE HAVE IN THIS MATCH??? K.T. ANDERSON: WHO CARES ABOUT DJ??? THE LOST CAN’T LOSE, BAYBAY!!!

AMERICAN THUNDER DOME QUALIFIER MATCH DANA ALANS vs ADRIANNA WILDE
VALENTINA LOVELACE: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THIS MATCH IS AN AMERICAN THUNDER DOME QUALIFYING MATCH!!! AUSSIE-HEMOTH!!! ALL CAPS GRAPS!!! AUSSIE-HEMOTH!!! ALL CAPS GRAPS!!! AUSSIE-HEMOTH!!! ALL CAPS GRAPS!!! VALENTINA LOVELACE: Introducing first... The lights in the arena go dark as Valhalla" by Blind Guardian begins to play. A massive figure walks through the curtain to a chorus of boos. On the screen The Australian Behemoth flashes quickly followed by the rune of the god Odin. The lights slowly fade in as Danela Alans is revealed and her name appears on the screen in dripping blood. Danela sneers at the crowd while she stomps her way to the ring. When she reaches the apron she grasps the top rope and pulls herself into the ring. Danela gives a wry smile as she draws a line in the sand and does a massive stomp in the middle inviting her opponent to battle. She lets out a war cry as her music fades. VALENTINA LOVELACE: And her opponent... The lights fade as [ R E D A C T E D] breaks over the PA system, the entryway illuminated only by white strobes that flash in time to the drum beat. By the time [ R E D A C T E D] vocal begins, Adrianna Wilde is striding out through the entrance way and down the ramp; her pace is slow, bouncy as she shakes out her arms and loosens up-her focus on the ring as she leisurely moves. By the time the chorus hits, Adri’s climbed the steps and towards the center of the apron; her lanky form climbing the middle rope, leaning back against the top as she finally leers out to the crowd-a sneer on her face as she gestures towards the crowd as she sings along to the chorus. It’s only when she’s satisfied with herself that she’s waving off the fans and allowing herself to roll back over the top rope and onto her feet, where she quickly claims a corner for herself as the music fades out. VALENTINA LOVELACE: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN... THE WINNER OF THIS MATCH... VIA PINFALL... ADRIANNA WILDE!!! Dana explodes up like she had kicked out, but she hadn’t. Adrianna rolls out of the ring and takes her celebration into the crowd away from the raging Giantess. She’s met with Mo Mooney who hypes her up to the crowd as Dana rages in the ring, threatening to hurt the referees and anyone else who gets in her way. K.T. ANDERSON: WIN ONE OF THREE FOR STRONGHOLD TONIGHT!!! THE GREATEST FACTION IN THE WORLD!!! WARHEAD WILLIAMS: I get Dana’s frustration, but threatening everyone with violence isn’t the answer! I know she’s better than that!

AMERICAN THUNDER DOME QUALIFIER MATCH NO HOMIE vs SIOBHAN MAHONEY
VALENTINA LOVELACE: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THIS MATCH IS A QUALIFYING MATCH FOR THE AMERICAN THUNDERDOME AND IT IS SCHEDULED FOR ONE FALL!!! ONE FALL!!! VALENTINA LOVELACE: Introducing first... “You Shook Me All Night Long” by AC/DC hits and the lights flash red and blue, signaling the arrival of everybody’s favorite hobo! The music builds up progressively, every chord that plays generating excitement and as the drums smash, out comes No Homie in his signature Australian lucha mask and street blanket for a cape, beating his chest like King Kong and screaming “MAAAAAAAAAATE!!!” at the top of his lungs. The crowd of course responds with passion, as The Roofless One nods back at them in acknowledgment and removes the blanket from around his shoulders, throwing it to the crowd and marching to the ring in defiance. The homeless Australian was in the building... and he was drinking Hobo Juice. VALENTINA LOVELACE: And his opponent... YOU MAKE ME VICIOUS The opening line of Vicious by Halestorm plays as the lights all turn red. The first verse continues as a spotlight shines on the stage. The chorus hits and so does Siobhan Mahoney as she steps into her spotlight. She poses at the top of the stage, bending a knee and throwing an arm up so that people can ogle even more of her. She walks down to the ring with the spotlight following her and hears only cheers for herself despite there not being any. The Hot Mess walks up the steps and across the apron posing on the ropes while demanding the referee to open them for her. The referee reluctantly obliges and Siobhan skips to the center of the ring, before pointing to herself and letting everyone know she deserves greatness. The spotlight and her music stop, but Siobhan is still all about herself as she waits for the match to start. VALENTINA LOVELACE: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN... THE WINNER OF THIS MATCH... VIA PINFALL... SIOBHAN MAHONEY!!! Siobhan celebrates her joyous return to NVR and K.T. Anderson is going crazy at the commentary booth. She blows him a kiss, and I swear something is going on over there, but hey look something shiny. Anyways, Siobhan poses and celebrates while No Homie tries to find a way to kick himself out of this funk. K.T. ANDERSON: THE FUCKING GREATEST!!! I LOVE THAT WOMAN!!! UH!!! THE EPITOME OF FEMININE GRACE IN WRESTLING GEAR I SWEAR!!! WARHEAD WILLIAMS: Siobhan Mahoney with a triumphant return here in NVR, not that I missed you drooling over her!

BACKSTAGE... We cut backstage as a newly returned Naoki Ojima is seen backstage. Dressed in his wrestling gear, Naoki has a big smile on his face as he addresses the camera in his native Japanese. Luckily for the viewers at home, there’s closed caption in English on the bottom of the screen.
NAOKI OJIMA: “Hello, NVR Universe! My apologies about being away from an NVR ring for so long, but during these days of the pandemic…..well it’s complicated. But I’m back, and I’m ready to show you all the Ojima style of wrestling! Strong style, mixed with speed and most importantly, heart.
Naoki pauses for a second as he pounds his chest with his fist.
NAOKI OJIMA: “Now I don’t know if it’s because of my past work here or because of my last name, but it’s an honor to have an opportunity to be part of the American Thunder Dome and all the riches it can bring me if I win it all. But let’s not get too far ahead of myself. I have to beat Chad Kassidy first.
Another pause as he strokes his chin as he thinks about his upcoming opponent.
NAOKI OJIMA: Now I don’t know a whole lot about Chad Kassidy. A strange fello. A unique style of wrestling and someone I have to pay extra close attention to, but someone that I can beat….if I have a little extra help from you, the fan. So let’s win this match together NVR Universe! And if we move on, let’s win America Thunder Dome…..together.
Naoki claps his hands together as he reaches his hand out to the camera, as to tell the fans at home to reach out and grab his hand.
NAOKI OJIMA: So…..are you ready? Well then….let’s GO GO GO!
Naoki gives a smile as he poses in front of the camera as it slowly fades to a commercial.

AMERICAN THUNDER DOME QUALIFIER MATCH NAOKI OJIMA vs CHAD KASSIDY
VALENTINA LOVELACE: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THIS MATCH IS AN AMERICAN THUNDERDOME QUALIFIER MATCH!!! GO! GO! NAOKI!!! CHAD! CHAD! CHAD!!! GO! GO! NAOKI!!! CHAD! CHAD! CHAD!!! GO! GO! NOAKI!!! CHAD! CHAD! CHAD!!! VALENTINA LOVELACE: Introducing first... Trumpets blast throughout the arena as TANK by the Seatbelts play. The arena fills with cheers as Naoki Ojima makes his way out. Sporting a Maximum Japan jacket, the rookie waves to the crowd as he quickly makes his way to the ring. Rolling inside Naoki stands in the middle of the ring and raises his right hand in the air as green and white streamers fill the ring. Stepping back Naoki takes his jacket off and tosses it outside. VALENTINA LOVELACE: And his opponent... The words ‘Oooh he’s a Chad…’ clearly in Natalie Kassidy’s voice blare through the arena, before we break into the ‘He’s a Devil, He’s A Doll’ by Betty Hutton began to play… slowly on stage, Chad walks out accompanied by Natalie. The happy couple shares a quick kiss on stage before Chad takes her hand and the two begin to head down the ramp. VALENTINA LOVELACE: “Making his way to the ring from Atlanta, Georgia. He is accompanied by Natalie Kassidy… This… is… CHAD!” And Chad it was, soon he would lead Natalie up onto the apron where they kissed again before he sat on the rope like a gentleman to allow her entry. Then he followed her into the ring, joining her in the ring corner as he took off his cool Chad sunglasses and wrapped his arm around her… while they awaited the match to commence. VALENTINA LOVELACE: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN... THE WINNER OF THIS MATCH... VIA DISQUALIFICATION... NAOKI OJIMA!!! Naoki looks confused as he realizes the man he had been brawling with and knee’d to death was actually Thad Kassidy. Chad and DJ brawl at ringside, both men not happy with the other interfering with their shots at the Thunderdome. Naoki, however, is willing to overlook the murky way this match ended and celebrate like he won the usual way anyways. Thad lays in a heap in the ring, awaiting someone to revive him. WARHEAD WILLIAMS: DJ AND CHAD NEED TO SETTLE THEIR DIFFERENCES LIKE SPORTSMAN!!! LEAVE IT IN THE RING!!! K.T. ANDERSON: THEY ARE TRYING TO, BUT THEIR STUPID OPPONENTS KEEP GETTING IN THE WAY!!!

PREVIOUSLY RECORDED... Adorned in black trunks with a red stripe, and an NVR shirt–Liam Vaughn is seen staring at himself in the mirror of what looks to be a private–or at least emptied locker room. The man seems to be breathing heavily–though not short of breath–as if he was practicing deep breathing exercises.
He rolls his neck alongside his shoulders to stretch and crack away the stiffness.
LIAM VAUGHN: “I don’t want to lose to Urigawa, not because I’m just fearful of placing my first loss on my record–but also because I do not want to disappoint a man that spoke of me as his kin. There is a part of me that found solace in that I cannot describe with simple words.”
He clears his throat and brushes back his loose, wet hair to reveal that handsome pair of cheekbones.
LIAM VAUGHN: “A flawless record is a fanciful fairytale–and if I can carry that into the sunset as my prize–so fucking be it–but the reality is the train will stop somewhere along the tracks be it by obstruction or pure lack of fuel. I want that time to be of my own choice. I want to decide when I’ve had too much, and it is time for the bell to ring. Leave me unconscious or on the sheer point of unimaginable pain–but do it so that I am carted or limping back to my sober existence to lick my wounds proudly. “
His eyes dart from the mirror to the camera and he crosses the room–glaring directly into the lens.
LIAM VAUGHN: “Place your hand to my chest and feel the beat of my heart because it will have to be snuffed from my body before I find myself scraping for victories from lesser people. I respect Urigawa. I respect my fight with Archie that I have also–and I respect the title contention I am up for–but the pressure is high–and the line grows tenser by the day. We all know that once pressure builds–it eventually snaps.”
He holds the camera to look into it longingly and smiles despite how much it was shaken about in the process.
LIAM VAUGHN: “You cannot kill what you did not create–but you can try–and Kai–if you do try–remember–I am simply what they made me.”
Liam kisses the camera against its–will? And exits the room, pushing aside the cameraman in the process of leaving.

AMERICAN THUNDER DOME QUALIFIER MATCH LIAM VAUGHN vs KAI URIGAWA
VALENTINA LOVELACE: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THIS MATCH IS A QUALIFYING MATCH FOR THE AMERICAN THUNDERDOME!!! VAUGHN-GEANCE!!! KAI IS GONNA KILL YOU!!! VAUGHN-GEANCE!!! KAI IS GONNA KILL YOU!!! VAUGHN-GEANCE!!! KAI IS GONNA KILL YOU!!! VALENTINA LOVELACE: Introducing first... All of the lights go out in the arena, as the opening sirens of “Twisted” by Missio begin to play. Singular lights flash to the sound of the music as a lone spotlight points down on the stage. Suddenly we see a man repel down from the ceiling from the light, and land on the stage. EVERYBODY IN THE WORLD KNOWS I'M A LITTLE TWISTED!!! EVERYBODY IN THE WORLD KNOWS I'M A LITTLE TWISTED!!! EVERYBODY IN THE WORLD KNOWS I'M A LITTLE TWISTED!!! EVERYBODY IN THE WORLD KNOWS I'M A LITTLE TWISTED!!! The lights all shoot on as we see Liam Vaughn standing on the stage. He saunters down to the ring, calm and uninterested in the fans around him. He takes his time until the chorus strikes up again, and he begins to run towards the hard-cam side of the ring, sliding across the ring apron and spinning himself through the ropes. Just as fast as his burst of energy came, it went away and he nonchalantly stumbles backward into a corner as he waits for the match to start. VALENTINA LOVELACE: And their opponent... “Not Once, Not Ever, No Way” "I WON'T GO DOWN WITHOUT A FIGHT! I WON'T GO DOWN WITHOUT A FIGHT!"
The music kicks through the PA as Kai steps through the curtain. He’s all smiles, but it’s just the calm before the storm. He pulls his mouthguard from his vest pocket and puts it in. The switch is flipped and Kai steps down the aisle quickly to the ring. VALENTINA LOVELACE: "Coming down the aisle: From Jacksonville, FL; he weighs in 177 lbs, Kai URIGAAAAWAAAAA!!!" Kai hops up onto the apron hard cam side, looks over his shoulder at his opponent, and enters the ring. Urigawa takes off his vest and falls into the corner, doing some last-minute stretching. VALENTINA LOVELACE: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN... THE WINNER OF THIS MATCH... VIA PINFALL... LIAM VAUGHN!!! Vaughn stands victorious over The Dragon of Jacksonville. He throws a singular fist in the air, refusing to let the referee raise it for him because he’s cool like that, but suddenly ALL THE LIGHTS TURN BRIGHT WHITE!!! When they all dim back to their normal setting, there’s a spotlight on a person in the rafters!!! IT’S MYOJIN!!! Calling back to when Vaughn first got Myo’s attention, now they are the one standing tall looking somewhat ominously at Liam, who merely smirks in delight. WARHEAD WILLIAMS: The rookie sensation wins in his debut, but the Star Kid seems to have possibly accepted the non-verbal challenge Liam gave them last month! K.T. ANDERSON: LIAM IS SO FUCKING COOL!!!

AMERICAN THUNDER DOME QUALIFIER MATCH BREE SMITH vs KAREN WILLOW
VALENTINA LOVELACE: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THIS IS AN AMERICAN THUNDER DOME QUALIFYING MATCH!!! KAREN WILLOW!!! KAREN SUCKS!!! KAREN WILLOW!!! KAREN SUCKS!!! KAREN WILLOW!!! KAREN SUCKS!!! VALENTINA LOVELACE: Introducing first... The intro to "Don't Stop" by 5 Seconds of Summer begins to play as the studio lights go down and the spotlights point to the stage area. Within a few seconds, Bree Smith struts out from behind the correct and she does a few signature poses on the stage. As Luke Hemmings and the rest of 5SoS yell out the chorus, Bree kicks it into high gear, jogging down the ramp, high-fiving as many fans as she can as she goes down to and around the ring. Once she's made it all the way around the ring once, she rolls into it and flexes. Everyone cheers for the Breehemoth as she backs into the corner. VALENTINA LOVELACE: And her opponent... ALL THE THINGS SHE SAID ALL THE THINGS SHE SAID RUNNING THROUGH MY HEAD RUNNING THROUGH MY HEAD RUNNING THROUGH MY HEAD
ALL THE THINGS SHE SAID ALL THE THINGS SHE SAID RUNNING THROUGH MY HEAD RUNNING THROUGH MY HEAD ALL THE THINGS SHE SAID
THIS IS NOT ENOUGH “All The Thing She Said” by Poppy plays and the arena lights flicker between pink and darkness while thick smoke fills the stage. As the beat kicks in, Karen Willow steps through the curtain - illuminated by a single spotlight - as she surveys the fans with narrowed eyes. The corners of her mouth slowly curl upwards before Karen saunters down the ramp. As she gets to ringside, Karen climbs through the ropes and paces around the ring like a caged animal, never taking her eyes off the opponent as the music fades out. VALENTINA LOVELACE: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN... THE WINNER OF THIS MATCH... VIA PINFALL... KAREN WILLOW!!! Karen gets up in victory, but quickly has to leap out of the way as DANA ALANS JUMPS ONTO BREE!!! Bree isn’t quite awake yet from the Wolf Fang Fist, but her instincts kick in and start fighting back for her. Both women roll around and out of the ring until they are on their feet. A group of security guards who had loosely followed Dana out to the ring instantly pull them away. Dana smiles as Bree is only now really waking up and feeling everything she’s supposed to. Dana yells out “SINCE WE DON’T HAVE ANYTHING TO DO AT AMERICAN THUNDERDOME, YOU VERSUS ME IN A TWO OUT OF THREE FALLS MATCH?!?” to which Bree instantly accepts as they are torn apart from each other and taken to different parts of Studio Merlot. Back in the ring with her hand in the air and a shrug of “I don’t care” Karen celebrates her first big win in a couple of months and says she’s now the favorite to win the Thunderdome. K.T. ANDERSON: I LOVE WHEN BIG WOMEN FIGHT!!! But also ya woo, Karen Willow won or whatever… WARHEAD WILLIAMS: KAREN WILLOW PUNCHING HER TICKET TO NVR’S ANNIVERSARY SHOW, WHILE BREE AND DANA LOOK TO FIGHT JUST ONE MORE TIME!!!

AMERICAN THUNDER DOME QUALIFIER MATCH MYOJIN vs GAVIN GRIMES
VALENTINA LOVELACE: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THIS MATCH IS AN AMERICAN THUNDERDOME QUALIFIER!!! LET’S GO STAR KID!!! CULT CLASSIC!!! LET’S GO STAR KID!!! CULT CLASSIC!!! LET’S GO STAR KID!!! CULT CLASSIC!!! VALENTINA LOVELACE: Introducing first... ARE YOU READY??? The lights dim down while the catchy, fast-paced rock of RAINBOWS by A9 echoes as a spotlight suddenly appears on a figure on the ramp, with their back turned, and begins kneeling. Once the beat finally kicks in, MYOJIN explodes with energy- wearing a masquerade-style mask over their eyes, and turns around with a confident smile on their face, raising their arms to soak in the positive reaction from everyone around. With their blonde locks hanging over their face. They then whip their head back, flipping their hair out of their face before excitedly running down the ring before performing a cartwheel and a jump, landing on their feet near ringside! They climb up to the apron, grabs a hold of the top rope, and slingshot themselves into the ring. MYOJIN performs a somersault roll, landing on their side with a hand on their hip. The others, took off their mask to reveal their piercing blue eye contacts. They toss it aside nonchalantly before climbing up the top turnbuckle, tilting their head upward as if he’s looking toward the sky- while the lights mimic stars above. They backflip, back onto their feet while taking off their flamboyant coat and moving to their corner. The lights go back to normal as they check their wrist tape. their charismatic smile fading to a more focused expression as they pace back and forth, ready for action. VALENTINA LOVELACE: And their opponent... The lights go out, and a few spotlights flash to the beat of “Throne” by Bring Me The Horizon begins to play. When the lead singer begins to sing out “Ooooh Ohohohoh Ooooh”, all of the lights turn back on to a blinding white light, as Gavin Grimes stands at the top of the ramp with his arms wide. The intensity of the lights goes down, as Gavin explodes with energy. He hi-fives fans and hypes them up as he heads to the ring. The Cult Classic slides across the apron, before posing for the fans. He goes into the ring and poses one more time in the center of the ring before heading to his corner. VALENTINA LOVELACE: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN... THE WINNER OF THIS MATCH... VIA PINFALL... MYOJIN!!! Myojin celebrates their win, not knowing about all the interference that went into their victory. Gavin shakes his head at STRONGHOLD but doesn’t ruin the moment for Myo. Gavin offers the “Theyby Face” his hand and the show of respect is there. Grimes looks into the camera and tells Ⓣ that he’s coming for his ass, and that none of his little goons are going to stop him! K.T. ANDERSON: Gavin Grimes is such a whiny little baby. YOU LOST!!! GET OVER YOURSELF!!! Fucking Goofy… WARHEAD WILLIAMS: ANOTHER STELLAR MATCH RUINED BY THE EGOS OF A THIRD PARTY!!! I AM NOT LIKING THIS THEME TONIGHT!!!

AMERICAN THUNDER DOME QUALIFIER MATCH DAX LEVANDRIER vs JULIANNA DIMARIA
VALENTINA LOVELACE: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THIS IS THE FINAL AMERICAN THUNDERDOME QUALIFIER FOR THE NIGHT, AND IT IS SCHEDULED FOR ONE FALL!!! ONE FALL!!! VALENTINA LOVELACE: Introducing first... The song plays for 15 seconds before Dax Levandrier steps through the curtains. He stands upon the stage and cranks his own neck before bellowing out this almost primal yell. “DEFY YOU, TO THE DEATH WE DESERVE” He starts to hop back and forth on his feet until he starts stomping on down the ramp. He doesn’t once look out to the crowd, his eyes laser-focused at the ring. Closing his eyes, he lets the screaming of his theme song fill his thoughts before opening his eyes and leaping onto the apron. He cleans his boots on the apron and steps through, walking toward the center of the ring. The hard cam zooms in on Dax as he madly stares through the lens, almost as if he’s peering through the souls of the audience watching at home. The song runs through the chorus once more and Dax walks his way toward the nearest rope, climbing onto the second turnbuckle. He finally looks out to the crowd and steps his right foot on the top turnbuckle before he flexes his massive arms, yelling out once again like a madman. He then does a 180 and hops off, staring blankly yet again, zoned in for his bout. VALENTINA LOVELACE: And his opponent... “Deal with the Devil” hits the speakers as Julianna DiMaria appears on the stage, greeted by some boos from the fans in attendance. She ignores them and heads down to the ring with a confident, focused look on her face. Once she heads inside the ring, she cracks her knuckles, indicating she's ready to fight, and afterward does the "talk to the hand" gesture toward all the fans that are booing her, displaying another touch of arrogance to get the fans against her even more. She heads to her corner and scoffs at the reaction she's getting as the song fades and she waits for what's coming next. VALENTINA LOVELACE: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN... THE WINNER OF THIS MATCH... VIA PINFALL... DAX LEVANDRIER!!! Dax pops to his feet and tells the referee to raise his hand. The referee obliges, and he yells it’s his time. He’s beaten former world champions now, next is the Thunderdome, and then… HE WILL HAVE GOLD!!! He yells a few more things before leaving Julianna in the ring. As she comes to and realizes she’s lost again, she just looks into the camera, and you can see her muttering to herself. She slaps herself a few times trying to stop it and get herself together, but the pressure and frustration of losing so much after a dominant world championship reign are getting to her. WARHEAD WILLIAMS: Big win for the Leviathan here tonight, but what’s wrong with Julianna? K.T. ANDERSON: FUCKING GEMMA IS NEVER GOING TO SHUT UP ABOUT THIS!!!

BACKSTAGE... We are backstage in the Wristlock Academy war room. We see T pow wowing with STRONGHOLD prior to each of their matches. T is focused as he goes over the game plan for the night with each of his students. When Donnie Prower cuts in with a quick joke about T being NVR World Champion and whooping Izzy Van Doren’s ass, it causes their leader to smile. He’s practically beaming. The group breaks formation to keep the happy feeling going. T is cutting it up with his students when there’s a knock at the door.
Ⓣ: “Come in”.
T turns his attention back to his stablemates to crack more jokes with them. Their faces turn from smiles to scowls as they see who entered the room. T looks at each of their faces, wondering what they’re looking at before turning himself.
IZZY VAN DOREN: “Hey Tapp.”
T’s smile quickly fades. Donnie, Freddie, and Adri all start to walk towards T’s opponent for tonight.
IZZY VAN DOREN: “Hey! Woah! I’m not here to fight. I’m going to do all that out in the ring. I just… wanted to talk to Tapp alone.”
DONNIE PROWER: “Yeah, maybe you don’t know but his name is-”
IZZY VAN DOREN: “Tapp. His name is Tapp. I’m never not going to call him Tapp.”
Izzy presses her fingers into her temples. Dealing with STRONGHOLD seems to give her a headache. She shakes her head and starts to walk towards T. Adrianna and Freddie block Izzy’s path.
IZZY VAN DOREN: “Tapp, I’m obviously outnumbered. I don’t even have my belt to hold that over you. I’d really just like to talk to you alone.”
T smirks and waves Izzy off. Before he turns away, Izzy lunges and grabs at T’s jacket, spinning him around so she can look him in the eyes. More importantly, so T can see how serious Izzy is. For whatever reason, T tells the members of Wristlock to give the two of them time alone, get ready for their matches in the hallway. If anything goes south, he’ll tell them to come back. With that, Donnie, Freddie, and Wilde leave the room and Izzy stands alone, face to face with T for the first time in a very… very long time. Izzy sighs and looks at the floor.
IZZY VAN DOREN: “Tapp, there’s a lot of things I want to get off my chest to you. And none of it is super easy for me. It’s taken me a long time to realize something about us that I either just couldn’t see or failed to acknowledge-”
Ⓣ: “That you’re a subpar wrestler?”
IZZY VAN DOREN: “Tapp-”
Ⓣ: “That I REALLY deserve the title?”
IZZY VAN DOREN: “No, listen to-”
Ⓣ: “That PLC broke up because of YOU.”
IZZY VAN DOREN: “Tapp… you were right”
There’s a pause. T raises an eyebrow. He’s in disbelief.
IZZY VAN DOREN: “Tapp, what I did to you… You… You were right. I abandoned you. I left you completely alone when you needed me the most. I was selfish. I was greedy. I was so consumed in what I was doing that I forgot what mattered. I didn’t know you well when PLC formed, but you quickly became someone that I saw a lot of potential in. I had every intention of taking each of you under my wing. And when you left… I thought you just didn’t want it anymore. I gave up on you. Your personal troubles took you away from the business and so I continued my tutelage with Karen. And despite you coming back, I thought you wouldn’t last long, but…”
Izzy’s eyes start to water and her voice starts to break as the emotions start to get the better of her. T still stands in utter shock of what’s happening before him.
IZZY VAN DOREN: “I’m actually kinda impressed to see all that you’ve accomplished… You’ve won title after title, tournament after tournament. It would make me, hell anyone, damn proud of the athlete you’ve become. But the person… Tapp, I… Tapp, as a vet, I should’ve been there for you like I was for Karen. I should’ve helped you. As one of my students, I needed to be there when you needed me… And I wasn’t.”
A big gasp fills the arena. T never acknowledged Izzy as a trainer. T sits on the chair his head pointed towards the floor before resting in his hands, his fingers going through his hair. Izzy drops to a knee and gets close to her student.
IZZY VAN DOREN: “See that’s why I said I never expected you to forget or forgive me because I can barely forgive myself! I have never claimed to be a saint, but doing what I did to you, I don’t deserve any of the things people say about me. I deserve every bit of the hate and vitriol you’ve dished out my way over the years. Tonight, I deserve the ass-kicking I’m going to get. But this, ALL of this, never needed to happen. It never should’ve happened. It never would’ve happened if I just said something, anything. I was wrong to treat you that way. And I… Tapson…”
T jolts up, face to face with a teary-eyed Izzy.
IZZY VAN DOREN: “Tapson, I failed you and I’m sorry…”
The air is quiet except for the AC. A tense, solemn staredown between the two until Izzy breaks it, balling her fists and looking to the ground. Izzy sniffs and stands up, readjusting herself. T’s eyes never break from Izzy.
IZZY VAN DOREN: “That’s… That’s all I needed to say to you. I’ll see you out there…”
Izzy sighs and leaves quickly leaving T to think everything over alone.

DURING THE BREAK...Brea was backstage with her newly won title, the NVR Women's Championship, as she had briefly considered making a sling out of it for her guitar while holding them together and checking weight distribution. She then realized the camera was on her, as she tossed the guitar on a nearby couch and spoke. BREA LOMBARDI: "Hey! It's your NVR Women's Champ here, and it's my first title defense in doing so. And since Dani Davies, who refuses to say my name, despite the fact I eliminated her from the Women's Summit, as well as the Rumble where I earned my title shot to begin with. She has the audacity to think she will bulldoze me!" Brea said, getting some intensity and fire behind her words as she chastised her opponent tonight. BREA LOMBARDI: "I've been through hell and back fighting Izzy over and over for this title, and I'll be damned if I let this cocky bitch waltz in and take my title right after I've earned it! Nah, that's not the way this is gonna be! What's gonna happen, Dani, is I'm gonna drag you all over that ring and stomp you until you piss blood! Blackie Lawless just wanted to be somebody, but, I'm going to remind you exactly who I am, Dani. I'm Brea Lombardi, and I am YOUR NVR Women's Champion." She said, raising up the belt with a snarl, as she was ready to fight, while the camera fades to black.

NVR WRESTLING WOMEN'S CHAMPIONSHIP SINGLES MATCH BREA LOMBARDI (C) vs DANI DAVIES
VALENTINA LOVELACE: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THIS MATCH IS FOR THE NVR WOMEN’S CHAMPIONSHIP!!! LET’S GO DANI!!! LEATHER REBEL!!! LET’S GO DANI!!! LEATHER REBEL!!! LET’S GO DANI!!! LEATHER REBEL!!! VALENTINA LOVELACE: Introducing first, the challenger... The opening of Mad Hatter begins to play, as lights flash to the tune of the little bells, but then the lights all change to a scarlet color as the verse first hits and Dani Davies steps out. She starts to walk down to the ring, singing the lyrics to the song as she stays away from the fans at ringside. The normals, they make me afraid The crazies, make me feel sane Dani walks towards the camera, reciting these words as she hops onto the apron and poses. She looks around at the crowd with a bit of disgust, as she spins into the ring and poses one more time, still singing the words to the song as the music. VALENTINA LOVELACE: And now, the champion... As the opening solo of "Leather Rebel" would play, we see Brea powerslide onto the top of the ramp, as she played her NVR Women's Championship like a guitar. She gets to her feet and raises the title up triumphantly, and makes a brief rock n roll gesture before making her way to the ramp with the title, and then sliding under the bottom rope to pose briefly and raises the title up with a confident nod, as she gets ready to fight. VALENTINA LOVELACE: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN... THE WINNER OF THIS MATCH... VIA PINFALL... AND STILL NVR WOMEN’S CHAMPION… BREA LOMBARDI!!! Brea stumbles to the ropes and gets her arm raised as the referee hands her the NVR Women’s Championship. She tells everyone that this is going to be the first in a long line of successful defenses. Lombardi sees Dani trying to get up and tries to help her up, but Dani shives her away and steals the title. She holds it in her hands and it almost looks like she’s going to walk away with it, before throwing it at Brea’s feet. Dani makes a face of disgust and says “it’ll look better on me” before walking away. Brea rolls her eyes ad goes back to celebrating her big win! K.T. ANDERSON: I already knew Brea had zero friends, but she certainly didn’t make any here tonight! WARHEAD WILLIAMS: Dani Davies is overcome with frustration. Give her time. She’ll find her respect along the way!

NVR WRESTLING GOLDENWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP TRIPLE THREAT MATCH JD DRIFTWOOD (C) vs SQUIGGLY THE CLOWN vs RAPTOЯ
VALENTINA LOVELACE: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THIS MATCH IS FOR THE NVR GOLDENWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP AND IT IS SCHEDULED FOR ONE FALL!!! ONE FALL!!! VALENTINA LOVELACE: Introducing first, the challengers…… "Immigrant Song" by Led Zepplin plays, as the lights change different colors of green, gold, and brown. The music changes into the first verse and out comes the 100 Million-year-old rookie, RaptoЯ steps out from behind the curtain. He takes his first small step for Dino's and his one giant leap for Dino-kind! With that, he stomps out to the ring and raises his hands in self-hype as the fans cheer for him as well. One big step over the top rope, and he's in the center of the ring screaming "We're Back" before posing in the ring and letting his music die. VALENTINA LOVELACE: Introducing the next challenger... "Grease Paint and Monkey Brains" by White Zombie starts to play we see the lights dim down. After the intro we see Squiggly come out from the back sporting a pig mask with clown makeup smeared over it. A large oversized tie rests over his ring attire as he approaches the ramp. He pulls a match from behind his ear and strikes it before lighting his tie. Firecrackers begin popping as Squiggly begins to tremble, almost seizure-like. The smoke clears as Squiggly continues shaking his head, twitching, and shaking his arms as he heads towards the ring. Squiggly comes to the edge of the ring where he ditches his tie and rolls in under the ropes. He stands up before he begins circling the ring, looking out at the crowd. He rips the mask from his face and lets out a deep belly laugh as he twitches and scratches at his bald, tattooed head. VALENTINA LOVELACE: And finally, the champion ... The intro to "Symbol of Nevermore" by Superjoint as the crowd gets to their feet. After a few moments, JD Driftwood bursts from the curtain. He waves his arms trying to get the fans hyped, pacing across the stage area and screaming "LET'S FUCKING GO". After a couple of minutes of hype, the verse hits, and he starts bouncing off the barricade, trying to mosh with fans as he makes his way to the ring. JD rolls to the center of the ring pop to his feet throw a middle finger in the air as the fans yell out with him “J F’N D”!!! VALENTINA LOVELACE: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN... THE WINNER OF THIS MATCH... VIA PINFALL... AND STILL NVR GOLDENWEIGHT CHAMPION… JD DRIFTWOOD!!! Driftwood spits out some blood as he calls for the referee to pull him up. He looks down at the heap of humanity he just pinned and smiles as he is handed his championship belt. He throws it over his shoulder. JD points at the men laying on the ground and says they are 300lbs pussies and that he will take on anyone one of the motherfucking bitches backstage. Big and tall, little and small, they all can get this ass whooping according to JD as he rolls out of the ring. K.T. ANDERSON: THAT MAN IS VERY COLORFUL IN HIS LANGUAGE AND I FOR ONE LOVE IT!!! WARHEAD WILLIAMS: His language is like his attitude, but that’s neither here nor there. JD Driftwood is a bad bad man.

PREVIOUSLY RECORDED... The camera cuts to a large hall filled with a loud gathering of people all dressed in their best Bien Habille outfits. A collection of balloons in pink, gold, and silver fills the room along with other decorations making it quite obvious we are in the middle of the celebration for Natalie Kassidy and Jessica Anderson. The one they have been demanding for quite some time now. The one they insisted that NVR spare no expenses in making happen as they feel they are more than worth any price available to celebrate their reign as tag team champions.
The ladies of honor in question are seated upon a stage in two golden thrones with their tag team championship belts on full display on their laps. Natalie raises her glass of champagne in a toast towards Jessica who happily clinks her glass with the one of her tag team partner. The crowd applauds for their success which stretches even beyond what they have accomplished inside of the ring. Natalie focuses her gaze towards the camera as she brings her glass up to her lips to take a drink.
NATALIE KASSIDY: No matter how much they whine or complain about getting their fair shot, here we sit, still your NVR tag team champions while STRONGHOLD continues to weaken their standing as a tag team. It’s poetic justice, wouldn’t you agree? Even if they are trying to stack the deck against us by throwing all of the tag teams in NVR in our direction at once. We didn’t win these tag team championships by sheer luck, we earned these, and we continue to earn them each time we get inside of the ring.
Natalie pauses for a moment, glancing over towards Jessica with one raised eyebrow, before she turns her attention back over towards the camera.
NATALIE KASSIDY: Later tonight being a perfect example as once again NVR insists that we defend what is rightfully ours. The work of a champion is never done, is it? We can’t even enjoy the celebration we rightfully deserve and have been asking for far too long now. Once more we have to lace up our boots and kick yet another tag team to the curb so they don’t get their dirty little hands all over our championship gold. Bad enough the stench of STRONGHOLD still lingers.
Natalie wrinkles her nose in slight disgust before she begins to laugh, soon followed by Jessica, who takes a drink from her own glass of champagne. Both of the women watching their guests enjoy themselves while they are making plans to successfully defend their title belts.
JESSICA ANDERSON: By now you’d have thought that we’d finally be given the respect that we deserve. We’ve carried this tag division on our shoulders and all we have to show for it is that stupid intern blowing up our Twitter notifications.
Jessica scowls in disapproval before tapping her glass. Her servant runs and refills it quickly. She takes another sip.
JESSICA ANDERSON: Don’t worry, though. Eventually they will have to treat us with the respect that they deserve, when they have no tag teams left to throw at us. And honestly, after tonight, who else is there? They might as well just crown us as the greatest tag team in history.
NATALIE KASSIDY: Just look at who they have us facing tonight.
Natalie waves one hand in a dismissive manner as she appears to be giving some thought to exactly who they are supposed to be defending their titles against.
NATALIE KASSIDY: Dead Pretenders. A fitting name for a team that stands no chance against us. Not to mention that we will secure ourselves the fifth entry spot for the gauntlet, not that it really matters when we would be stepping out, because we both know that there isn’t a single tag team that will come anywhere close to beating us when it counts. Always putting up challenges for us to overcome and we make it look easy, don’t we? Still we have yet to really get the respect we deserve, this little celebration here?
Natalie once again waves her hand around as she makes a sweeping motion towards all of the people gathered inside of the hall, drawing all of the eyes in her direction.
NATALIE KASSIDY: It’s only the tip of the iceberg of what we should be receiving as far as praise towards our reign as the NVR tag team champions. We are two of the best women in this entire business, look at all we’ve accomplished, what we will still accomplish in the future. Are they that frightened of strong women that they refuse to give us what we deserve? I guess we’ll just have to keep making it clear what we demand, what we are owed, right Jess?
Jessica raises her glass to eye level and tilts it forward ever so slightly. She nods her head in agreement.
JESSICA ANDERSON: Amen, babe. We deserve so much, and honestly making every show all about us would only be the start of paying off that debt. Fortunately we're very giving women. So we won't demand anything more until after our successful defense. But after then? We expect everything. The VIP treatment and everything. Only the best for the World's Chaddest Tag Team.
Together they nod in mutual agreement as once again they clink their glasses together while the camera cuts away to let them keep enjoying their celebration for the evening.

NVR WRESTLING TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP TAG TEAM MATCH WORLD'S CHADDEST TAG TEAM (C) (JESSICA ANDERSON & NATALIE KASSIDY) vs DEAD PRETENDERS (KIRA IZUMI & SUI OBATA)
VALENTINA LOVELACE: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THIS IS NEXT MATCH IS FOR THE NVR TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIPS!!! DEAD PRETENDERS!!! WORLD’S CHADDEST!!! DEAD PRETENDERS!!! WORLD’S CHADDEST!!! DEAD PRETENDERS!!! WORLD’S CHADDEST!!! VALENTINA LOVELACE: Introducing first... 果てなき世界ならば この胸には証しを 同じ涙濡れたら 僕ら笑いあおう Both Kira And Sui come out from the back before they point at the ring and do a cutthroat motion. They make their way down the rampway and walk around the ring, along the way slapping the hands of fans and talking to the crowd. They meet up to where the announce table is and climb on top of it where they make an "X" with their arms and rile up the crowd. きおく きずな きぼうと重ねたら みらいいろ ずっと僕らは描いてく They make their way into the ring and climb up to the top turnbuckle where they do another cutthroat motion, sticking out their tongues and rolling their eyes into the back of their heads. all undertaker-like. They drop down and square up to their opponents finishing it off. VALENTINA LOVELACE: And now, the champions... "I Wish" by Cher Lloyd feat T.I. hits the speakers, and a few seconds later Jessica Anderson and Natalie Kassidy emerge from the curtain. They stand with their feet roughly at shoulders width apart and raise their right index fingers into the air. At the top of her lungs, Jessica screams out aggressively to let everyone know just how good she and Natalie are. Natalie nods, and barks that nobody could stand up to them. After a moment of yelling at the fans, the women begin to make their way down the ramp. They start walking with a skip in their step and a scowl on their faces. They look around the venue disapprovingly, still talking about how they’re better than everyone else. Jessica quickly leaps up onto the ring apron, before straddling the middle rope. Natalie rolls into the ring, poses behind Jess, and they both wink at the camera. Nat gives Jess’ backside a slight spank, and then Jessica pulls the rest of her form into the ring. From here, they both back into their corner ready for the match to start. VALENTINA LOVELACE: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN... THE WINNER OF THIS MATCH... VIA PINFALL... AND STILL NVR TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS… JESSICA ANDERSON AND NATALIE KASSIDY… THE WORLD’S CHADDEST TAG TEAM!!! Natalie and Jessica try to roll out of the ring, excited that Squiggly interfered for their benefit again, but Binky the bear runs up and scares them back into the ring. Binky snarls and gets on his hind legs as Jessica and Natalie slowly back into Squiggly, who giggles in delight as he pulls out a rubber chicken that seems to be deep-throating a microphone. SQUIGGLY THE CLOWN: DID YOU THINK I WAS HERE TO HELP YOU??? NO! MY FRIEND AND I WANT THOSE SHINY BELTS… AND WE WANT THEM AT AMERICAN THUNDERDOME!!! Binky makes a roar in agreeance. SQUIGGLY THE CLOWN: We dislike STRONGHOLD as much as anyone else, but that match was supposed to be our ticket in, not some throwaway one-off. THEN WE GOT LEFT OUT OF THE GAUNTLET… LIKE HELLLLLOOOOOO!!! WE’RE A TEAM TOO!!! Squiggly shakes his head. SQUIGGLY THE CLOWN: So now, we’re going to take these and just make up our own match like everyone else do- “Ima Boss” plays and NVR’s President Caleb Jackson steps out waving his hands as if to signal “No” CALEB JACKSON: WOW!!! WOW!!! WOW!!! You of all people have zero authority here to make demands. Neither of you technically works here. That contract you signed was for Chiseltooth, not Squiggly the Clown. Squiggly giggles, because he knows nothing about contract laws. CALEB JACKSON: But you’re right… you and your bear friend there ARE a tag team and probably should deserve a shot in this gauntlet too!!! So I’ll let you two in under one condition… YOU ENTER FIRST AGAINST THEM!!! Caleb Jackson points to someone standing behind Squiggly. While Squiggly and Binky were distracted by Caleb, the tag champs escaped but left Squiggly alone with two very angry Dead Pretenders. Binky tries to get in, but he struggles to get in between the ropes. Together, Sui Obata and Kira Izumi hit BU SHI DO on Squiggly and say “see you next month”. Binky grabs Squiggly with his maw and pulls the clown out of the ring, allowing Dead Pretenders to escape to safety from the angry bear. WARHEAD WILLIAMS: BINKY AND SQUIGGLY GET ADDED TO THE GAUNTLET NOW??? THIS WILL BE TOTAL ANARCHY!!! K.T. ANDERSON: ANARCHY!!! ANARCHY!!! I DON’T KNOW WHAT IT MEANS, BUT I SURE DO LOVE IT!!!

HEADLINE NVR WRESTLING R!ZE CHAMPIONSHIP TRIPLE THREAT MATCH DARBY MACNAMARA (C) vs DIEGO MATIAS vs BRODY HOWITZER
VALENTINA LOVELACE: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THIS IS YOUR HEADLINE BOUT AND IT IS FOR THE NVR R!ZE CHAMPIONSHIP!!! LET’S GO DARBY!!! VAMOS DIEGO!!! VAMOS!!! BRODY SUCKS!!! LET’S GO DARBY!!! VAMOS DIEGO!!! VAMOS!!! BRODY SUCKS!!! VALENTINA LOVELACE: Introducing first, the challengers... The tempo of "Journey to the Center of the Mind" would pick up gradually, as Brody makes his way to the top of the ramp and holds a kendo stick in the "This is my Boomstick!" pose, before pointing it at the crowd as he makes his way to the ring after some stagehand rolls out some red carpet for him to walk, as he enters the ring ready to make some art. VALENTINA LOVELACE: The next challenger... #1 by Nelly plays as the colors of the Mexican flag strobes all over the arena as Diego comes out of the curtains. He does a prayer to his mentor, and waves hello at the camera to his sister Daya. Diego starts to walk down to the ring and hi-fives as many fans as he can before he slides to the ring and gives a shout-out to the man upstairs before he warms up for his opponent and acknowledges the crowd. VALENTINA LOVELACE: And finally, the champion... The upbeat, fast-paced tunes of Machine Gun Kelly’s pop punk “Kiss Kiss” starts to play and Darby comes out from backstage with his usual carefree energy. Pausing he’ll glance around to study the crowd and then begin to make his way quickly. On his way to the ring he’ll try and barter and trade with fans along the ramp, looking to exchange any of the knick-knacks he might have picked up backstage (or who the hell knows where else). Sometimes he might be successful. Others he might come up empty. But eventually, he’ll turn his attention back to the task at hand, ascend the steel ring steps and then up the nearby turnbuckle post, flipping off the top turnbuckle and into the ring where he’ll find his way to his corner and (most likely) try and pickpocket the referee’s wallet on his way there. VALENTINA LOVELACE: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN... THE WINNER OF THIS MATCH... VIA PINFALL... AND STILL NVR R!ZE CHAMPION… DARBY MACNAMARA!!! Darby sees a ring hand go to grab his title, and he shoots out in a near suicide dive to take it. Nobody was going to touch his shiny, especially now that he was 1 defense away from possibly getting a new shiny. Darby forgoes the arm raising for a small sprint down the ring as he raises his hand and protects his precious shiny. Back in the ring, Diego is just coming to and he sees Brody getting up. Brody starts to blame Diego for them both losing, and almost instantly the two explode into a brawl. Diego goes for a brainbuster, but Brody wiggles himself free and escapes. Brody tells Diego to stop being a bad actor and go back to who he really is… a black-hearted snake. Suddenly, the lights go out and "Cinco de Mayhem" by the Bleeding Fingers begins to play. The lights come back on and Diego is standing there… IN FULL CORAZON NEGRO GEAR!!! Corazon Negro points out to Brody Howitzer and yells out CORAZON NEGRO: IF YOU WANT ME… YOU’VE GOT ME!!! Brody tries to hit the Blooper Heel, but the lights go out again and Neither version of Diego Matias is in the ring anymore. Brody still smiles as though he had won because now he’s going to get “The Real Diego”. WARHEAD WILLIAMS: LOOKS LIKE WE HAVE ANOTHER BIG MATCH AT AMERICAN THUNDER DOME!!! K.T. ANDERSON: AND THE MATCH BETWEEN BRODY AND DIEGO’S MASK TOO!!!

DURING THE BREAK... NEVADA BROOKS: I’m here even though I don’t have a match on this show, because tonight’s Main Event, well that impacts me personally doesn’t it? Like I told Izzy, I’m doing this the right way.
She held up her World Championship Opportunity Briefcase, a big smile coming to her lips, the pink gloss winking in the light. While she’s in street clothing, jeans, boots and a colorful Ethan Giles Dream Maker Academy hoodie, she still looks like she could fight, she’s a Brooks after all.
NEVADA BROOKS: I’m not going to lie to you fans and say that it doesn’t matter who wins tonight between our current NVR World Champion Izzy Van Doren and Circle T, because that’s what it would be. It does matter. Now I’m sure that Circle T would say that I want Izzy to retain because I think I can’t beat him, but that’s also a lie. Anybody with enough guts and fire can beat him. Anybody in this business can lose, no matter how good they are and that’s not disrespect, that’s facts. What separates the truly great from the rest? Is how they handle a big loss.
She lowers the hand holding up the case she’s been defending since last November, a sigh passing those lips before she looks up and smiles again.
NEVADA BROOKS: I want Izzy Van Doren to retain because she has literally always been the biggest challenge I’ve ever faced. If you don’t believe me, go back and watch the times we’ve faced, I certainly have. She’s the kind of wrestler, the kind of champion, that if you’ve got the talent and the skills will push you to be the best version of yourself, because less won’t beat her.
Her free hand lifted to rest over her heart, a ring glimmering on her hand as she does so.
NEVADA BROOKS: Nevada Brooks? Well. I’m one of those wrestlers who took up that silent challenge she laid down. I have done nothing but work hard to get better, and the fact I’ve held on to this for so long proves that. Now the final test is coming at American Thunder Dome, and I told you I want you at your best Izzy… and that’s because I’m bringing the best me that’s ever been seen in an NVR ring. I’m going to get in there with you Iz, and give you the best of someone better... because I also believe with all my heart that you have the skill, drive, and talent that it will take to get through tonight and meet me there.
Kira waves a little and blows a kiss at the camera before she leaves, heading out to her seat to watch the show up close!

MAIN EVENT NVR WRESTLING WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP SINGLES MATCH IZZY VAN DOREN (C) vs Ⓣ
VALENTINA LOVELACE: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THIS IS YOUR MAIN EVENT FOR THE EVENING AND IT IS FOR THE NVR WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP!!! LET’S GO IZZY!!! LET’S GO Ⓣ!!! ]LET’S GO IZZY!!! LET’S GO Ⓣ!!! ]LET’S GO IZZY!!! LET’S GO Ⓣ!!! VALENTINA LOVELACE: Introducing first, the challenger... [ R E D A C T E D] hits the PA system, and the lights fade to a red color. At the top of the stage, sparkler pyres go off and as the chorus hits, they shoot off white, as red confetti shoots into the air, and out comes Ⓣ Wrestling. The REALEST Wrestler walks down the ramp ignoring the fans and focusing on the match ahead. Ⓣ slides into the ring on his stomach and slaps the canvas three times before hopping up. He "Runs the ropes" and arrogantly poses in the center of the ring by kissing his hands and spreading them out into the air as his music fades out. VALENTINA LOVELACE: And now the champion... Izzy comes out of the curtain bumping to her music. She rips open her vest, throws her head back, and poses at the top of the ramp. She smiles and smirks with the fans chanting "Izzy, Izzy, Izzy". Upon reaching the threshold where the ramp meets the ring mat, Izzy bites her lip, winks to the camera, and slides into the ring. She pops up to her feet and heads to the hard cam side of the ring. She slides her torso in between the top and middle rope. She smiles and throws her arms open forming the horns with her hands. Izzy's eyes widen and her smile looks a little more crazed. She pulls back and looks on at her opponent eager to get down. VALENTINA LOVELACE: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN... THE WINNER OF THIS MATCH... VIA PINFALL... AND STILL NVR WORLD CHAMPION… IZZY VAN DOREN!!! Izzy throws an arm up in triumph as she has successfully beaten everyone in Poor Life Choices under the NVR Banner now. Obviously, it was so much more than that to her though, and she tries to show respect to the man who was once her friend, but Mo Mooney drags his client out of the ring and the rest of STRONGHOLD is still being subdued by Gavin Grimes and Scrap Addams and their chairs. Ⓣ yells out that he will never see Izzy as a real champion, and that Gavin and Scrap are going to get their asses beaten heavily for stealing the title away from the REAL world champion. Izzy just shakes her head. Suddenly "En Route To Mayhem" by Apocalyptica begins to play and Nevada Brooks struts down to the ring. The stage is now set for one of the main events at American Thunderdome 4… NEVADA BROOKS VS IZZY VAN DOREN FOR THE NVR WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP!!! Nevada raises her briefcase high in the air and Izzy clinks it with her NVR World Championship!!! The two don’t take their eyes off each other as the show fades to the Battleground Network sign. K.T. ANDERSON: HOLY FUCK AUGUST IS GONNA BE FUCKING NUTS!!! WARHEAD WILLIAMS: I’M SO EXCITED TO CELEBRATE THE FOURTH BIRTHDAY OF THIS NICHE LITTLE FED!!!
