El Dia de los Muertos 2009

El Dia de los Muertos 2009 - November 12th, 2009 - Bosque de Chapultepec, Mexico City, Mexico

[The shot opens up at ringside, where Jack Gene and Bill Hughes sit, dressed in their best commenting attire, ready to call tonight's action.]

[The shot changes to inside of the ring.]

Bill Hughes – I’m sure AWS Man has a good reason if he doesn’t show.

[The WMW-tron suddenly switches to a shot of AWS Man (also known as Bill), sitting back in a recliner in TDA’s locker room. The fans begin booing again as the Insane One leans forward, seeming to stare directly at Kronin in the ring.]

AWS Man (also known as Bill) – Welly welly freakin’ well. Surprised to see me back here instead of out there with you, Krumpet? Well, I’ve got a freakin’ bombshell for you: I’m not coming.

Jack Gene – What’s he talking about? Pretty much everybody expected this exact same thing.

Bill Hughes – I for one am shocked. AWS Man successfully put one over on all of us again. What a mastermind!

AWS Man (also known as Bill) – You see, Kroenke, I’m tired of carrying your dirty, oversized patoot. I’ve been one half of the freakin’ tag team champions since January, and whether I held the titles with you or Umbrage, it’s been me doing all the work. I’m freakin’ tired of it, and frankly, you don’t deserve it anymore. You’ve never even been grateful to me for allowing you to be one half of the most dominant team in WMW history. So I guess you’ve got two freakin’ options now: You can either back out now, which makes you a freakin’ quitter, and you’ll never be able to look your stupid snot-nosed fans in the face again. Or you can try to defend the titles on your own, in which case good luck, because if you win, I still get to freakin’ keep my title for doing nothing. But you will lose, and I’ll be back here laughing at you. So suck on that, freakwad.
[In the ring, Kronin raises an eyebrow and nods his head, again unsurprised and calls for a mic.  Inkster walks over and hands him the mic and Kronin looks up towards the video image of AWS MAn.]

Kronin - Heh, you know... I saw this coming.  I did.  See, I'm not exactly an idiot myself.  I also figured your plan.  Make me fight a handicap match, soften me up for later on tonight when you and I go at it... but I got some bad news for you.. I had a plan of my own.  A plan that I mentioned to Sault St. Marie and he really loved.  So, here's how it goes down, AWS Man... since you refuse to honor your contract as tag team champion and come down here to defend them, you forfeit your half of them.  This then puts both belts in my possession to do with as I want, including naming a new partner to help me defend them.  So, Long story short, I made a back up plan and found someone backstage who was willing to become tag team champion in case you didn't want to do your job.  So, ladies and gents, give it up for my new tag team partner, and the other half of the tag team champions.... RYVEN!!!

['Grounds for Divorce' by Elbow plays and Ryven walks out, a huge smirk on his face as he makes his way down to the ring and climbs up onto the ring apron.  Ryven pauses and shoots a look to Valora.  Pointing to her as she lowers her eyes and nods.]

Jack Gene - WOW!  Amazing news by Kronin there, who just named Ryven as his new partner!  Do we have confirmation on this from management?!

Bill Hughes - This can't be happening!  Not Ryven!  Oh man!  The two most annoying people in WMW teaming up, this is a nightmare!  But just because Kronin says so, doesn't mean that's how it is!!
Jack Gene - Actually, Bill... I'm receiving word from the back right now that this is going to happen like Kronin said!  WMW Management is confirming that for failure to defend the tag team titles as contractually obligated to, AWS Man has been stripped of his half of the tag team titles and if Kronin and Ryven win, they will be the WMW Tag Team champions!

[In the ring, Ryven and Kronin confer and Valora turns to Videogame, indicating that he can start the match if he wants.  Videogame smiles and nods, stepping towards the middle of the ring.  In the other corner, Kronin and Ryven decide on Kronin to start off and Kronin advances towards the middle of the ring as John Law looks over at both corners and calls for the bell to start the match.]

Jack Gene - And here we go, the match is officially underway!  Any final pre-match thoughts, Bill?

Bill Hughes - Well, I'm definitely rooting for Valora and Videogame now... that's for damn sure.

[In the ring, Kronin and Videogame lock up in a collar and elbow tie up, which is held for a few seconds before Kronin easily moves the hold to a Side Headlock.  Videogame responds with a couple of elbows to the gut of Kronin but Kronin maintains the hold and spins around, grabbing Mr. Videogame from behind with a waist lock and a moment later, Kronin takes Videogame to the mat hard with a German Suplex.  Kronin pulls Videogame to his feet and measures him before nailing him with a hard right hand to the forehead that sends Videogame crashing back down to the mat.  Videogame gets to his feet and throws a punch at Kronin who catches the punch and counters into a standing armbar, putting pressure on Videogame's elbow.]

Jack Gene - And Kronin is in control of this match so far.  He's been overpowering Videogame since the opening bell and now is beginning to target Videogame's arm.  Smart strategy as both of Videogame's big finishers require his arms.

Bill Hughes - Oh for the love of... can't Videogame do anything right?  The match just started and he's already blowing it for Valora!

[In the ring, Kronin moves Videogame towards the corner and Ryven, turning and wrenching on the arm, calling Ryven into the ring.  Ryven steps into the ring and walks over to Videogame, measuring him before delivering a couple of solid punches to Videogame's shoulder, causing him to wince in pain.  Valora jumps on the ropes and screams at the ref to get Ryven out of the ring before she runs down to the neutral corner directly vertical to where Kronin, Videogame and Ryven are and she jumps onto the turnbuckle and leaps into the air , hitting Videogame and Kronin with a double dropkick that ends up catching Ryven as well, leaving all four competitors on the mat as the crowd goes wild.  John Law steps in and orders both Ryven and Valora out of the ring.  Ryven moves out of the ropes and reaches over and tags Kronin before re-entering and bypassing Videogame completely as he tackles Valora as she gets up and begins raining down punches on her face as the crowd boos loudly.  Ryven then smirks and quickly rolls over, locking Valora into his triangle choke submission hold.  Videogame gets to his feet and runs over, grabbing Ryven from behind and taking him to the mat face first with a bulldog.  Valora rolls out of the ring and drops to a knee, shaking her head.  She recovers quickly though and runs back to her corner as Ryven and Videogame trade punches in the middle of the ring before Videogame goes low with a knee to the midsection of Ryven and whips him into his and Valora's corner, rushing in after Ryven and hitting him with a big body splash, grabbing Ryven and taking him back to the mat with another bulldog.]

Jack Gene - Well this match is certainly moving now and Videogame is showing signs of life!  Valora breaks up the double team by hitting Kronin, Ryven, and her own partner with a dropkick which gave Ryven the opening to tag himself into the match and he ignored Videogame going right for Valora, but Videogame not only came to Valora's aid but now seems to have some momentum in this match as he has Ryven reeling after that body splash into a bulldog combo move!

Bill Hughes - This is great!  If Videogame is able to pin Ryven, that will be a huge lesson in humility to that arrogant ass....

[Videogame pulls Ryven to his feet and whips him into their corner as he moves forward and tags Valora in, taking Ryven down with a belly to belly suplex as Valora leaps off the turnbuckle and nails Ryven with a frog splash, immediately going for the cover as the crowd goes nuts, the stadium seeming to shake with the noise level  Law makes the count but Ryven kicks out after a 2 count.  Valora gets up and pulls Ryven to his feet and whips him into the ropes, Kronin reaching over and making the blind tag as Valora charges forward and takes Ryven down with a flying corkscrew elbow, sending Ryven to the mat.  Valora jumps to her feet just in time to be knocked inside out as Kronin runs through her with a massive clothesline, bringing boos from the crowd as Ryven rolls out of the ring and makes his way back to his corner to catch his breath.]

Jack Gene - First near fall of the match there folks!  Valora and Videogame hit Ryven with an impressive double team move but it just wasn't enough to get the win that time and Ryven and Kronin are functioning well as a team here as they make another tag and Kronin comes in and just levels Valora with a massive clothesline.

Bill Hughes - Good team?  They haven't made a willing tag yet.  Ryven tagged himself into the match and Kronin turned around and did the same thing!

[Valora gets to her feet, narrowing her eyes and raises her fists as her and Kronin circle each other.  Valora charges in and throws a punch, which Kronin catches and tries to take Valora down with a hip toss, but Valora jumps into it and lands on her feet, before immediately jumping up and nailing Kronin with a dropkick, sending him staggering back.  She then rushes in and jumps up, trying for a hurrancanrana, but Kronin catches her in mid air, lifts her up into a last ride position and slams her to the mat with authority, bringing an 'oooh' from the crowd and causing Ryven to applaud on the ring apron.  Kronin pulls Valora to her feet and whips her hard into his and Ryven's corner.  Kronin follows her into the corner and makes the tag to Ryven before lifting Valora up into a military press position while climbing to the top rope.  Ryven kneels down, holding one knee out and Kronin press drops Valora gut first onto Ryven's knee, causing her to hit hard and roll over, holding her ribs and midsection.  Ryven doesn't give Valora anytime to catch her breath before dragging her to her feet and taking her to the mat with a belly to belly suplex.  He pulls her to her feet again and whips her into the ropes, as she comes off the ropes and heads back towards him, he tries for the tilt a whirl backbreaker but Valora counters taking him down with a head scissors takedown.  Both fighters staying on the mat for a few moments as Valora grips her midsection and Ryven starts to recover.]

Jack Gene - Well, Kronin and Ryven made a normal tag there and then nearly broke Valora's ribs with that gut buster from the top rope.  Valora bought herself some time with that head scissors take over but she needs to get Videogame back into this match and soon, especially since she has to think about later on tonight as well.

Bill Hughes - But that means she has to trust Videogame not to drop the ball!

[Valora crawls towards Videogame and Ryven grabs her foot, but Valora dives forward and makes the tag to Videogame's out stretched hand.  Videogame charges in and tries for a clothesline but grabs the arm and with a quick turn and flips, sends Videogame down to the ground before quickly locking in the armbar on the mat as John Law checks for the submission.  Videogame shakes his head no and tries to turn his body to relieve pressure on the elbow as Valora leans over the rope, hollering advice and encouragement.  Ryven fights to keep the hold on bit finally lets go and gets to his feet.  The two start a collar and elbow tie up but Ryven quickly moves it to a side headlock, punching Videogame in the side of the head a couple of times before bringing his knee up hard into Videogame's face.  Ryven then wrenches Videogame's arm and leads him to their corner, where Ryven makes the tag to Kronin.  Kronin steps through the ropes and measures Videogame, punching his shoulder with three big, measured punches before Ryven pushes Videogame into Kronin, who takes Videogame down with a massive belly to belly suplex as Ryven steps through the ropes.]

Jack Gene - God, Valora and Mr. Videogame just can't get a break!  Ryven and Kronin have a game plan and are sticking to it, attacking that arm of Mr. Videogame non stop, and focusing their attacks on Valora's midsection when she was in.  She's barely had time to catch her breath and Videogame needs to tag out already!

Bill Hughes - This night is not off to a good start!

[Kronin stalks around Videogame and as Videogame gets up slapping his arm and shoulder, trying to get some feeling back in the arm, Kronin is waiting for him and throws a big right hand that Videogame ducks and then responds with a big knife edge chop across Kronin's chest.  Videogame wastes no time and follows up with another big chop and then grabs Kronin, whipping him into the ropes and setting up for his return move but as he hits the ropes, Kronin launches himself into the air and nails Videogame with a flying shoulder tackle that sends Videogame flying back into his corner, where Valora makes a blind tag and slingshots herself onto the ropes and into the ring, where Kronin tries to catch her but Valora grabs him and hits a tornado DDT, taking Kronin to the mat and bringing a big cheer from the ground.  Valora jumps to her feet as Kronin gets to his feet and meets him with vicious knife edge chops, aiming for a series of three but Kronin catches the third chop attempt and turns it into an abdominal stretch, torquing back on the hold, causing Valora to grunt in pain.  Every few seconds, Kronin slams his free fist into Valora's exposed rib cage.  Valora chants rise from the crowds as Videogame looks into the ring, massaging his shoulder and arm, trying to get feeling back in it.]

Jack Gene - Oh God!  It's the abdominal stretch!  It might be a basic move but when some as big as Kronin locks it on you then punches your exposed rib cage... my god that's going to tear Valora's insides apart!  Kronin and Ryven have come with a plan folks.  First Kronin sent Videogame flying with a massive flying shoulder block and Valora was then able to tag herself in.  She tried for a crossbody block but Kronin caught her but Valora adjusted and took him down with a tornado DDT, but Kronin has gotten the advantage right back here with the Abdominal Stretch.

Bill Hughes - Yeah well... if Kronin injures Valora, these people will kill him.  He's already injured Jade, how many more women does Kronin have to maim before we kick him out on his hippie ass?  I thought hippies were supposed to be peaceful...

Jack Gene - They are.

Bill Hughes - That does not look like a peaceful hippie to me!!!

Jack Gene - That's because Kronin is a rocker.  They tend to be a bit more...violent.

Bill Hughes - Well AWS Man says he's a hippie and I think AWS Man is a much better judge of character then you are.  Kronin should have his hippie membership card revoked!

[In the ring, Kronin has had the abdominal stretch hold on the entire time and Valora is rapidly wearing down.  John Law checks for the submission but Valora shakes her head no, prompting another strike from Kronin, before Kronin lifts Valora up and takes her to the mat with a running powerslam.  Valora grunts audibly as she is taken to the mat hard and the crowd groans in shard pain.  Kronin looks around from the prone Valora to the turnbuckle and smirks, rolling Valora over and bending down into her face, giving her the finger and yelling "You can't beat me!" before running to the turnbuckle and jumping off, trying for a Aztec moonsault, but not getting quite the turn on the corkscrew portion of it as Valora would, landing hard on Valora and immediately going for the pin attempt as Ryven laughs his ass off on the ring apron, nearly losing his balance as the crowd boos loudly.  Law drops down and makes the count 1.....2.....3Videogame flies into view of the camera, landing with the point of his elbow on the back of Kronin's head, breaking up the pinfall attempt, grimacing in pain as it's the injured arm he uses to do so.]

Jack Gene - Wow!  Last second, and I mean last second save by Videogame there!  How humiliating that would have been if Valora had been beaten with her own Aztec Moonsault here in Mexico City!

Bill Hughes - Copyright infringement!!! Arrest that stoned out rocker....hippie....freak....guy.....!  He can't use another wrestlers move!

Jack Gene - Ummm actually, yes he can...there's no rule that says that just because Valora uses a corkscrew moonsault she calls the Aztec moonsault that no other wrestler anywhere in the world can use that same move.

[In the ring, Ryven leans over the ropes, calling for the tag.  Kronin shrugs and walks over to Ryven and makes the tag as John Law tells Videogame to leave the ring.  Videogame does and Ryven pulls Valora to her feet, hooking her for a suplex and lifts her up into a vertical suplex hold, but Valora blocks the hold and immediately counters into an inside cradle.  Law counts 1.....2...Ryven kicks out at the last second and jumps to his feet enraged, pelting Valora with soccer style kicks as she tries to get up, until Valora grabs Ryven's leg and spins around, sweeping Ryven's legs out from under him with a Capoeira style kick.  Valora then does a forward roll and comes up, making the tag to Videogame while she slips through the ropes and sits on the apron, holding her ribs and midsection.  Videogame runs forward and tries for a burning lariat, but Ryven grabs him and takes him down with a hip toss, holding onto Videogame's arm and placing the elbow against Ryven's knee as Ryven pulls back on the arm, causing Videogame to grit his teeth in pain.  Videogame eventually manages to turn his body and get his foot in the ropes, though and John Law calls for the break.  Ryven breaks the hold and Videogame rolls around on the mat, holding his arm.  Ryven pulls Videogame to his feet and measures him, before driving his elbow into Videogame's arm, elbow area.  He then whips Videogame into the ropes and catches him as he comes off the ropes, taking Videogame to the mat with an overhead belly to belly suplex.  Ryven then gets up and walks over to where Videogame lies on the mat and drops an elbow onto the point of his forehead.  Valora stands up and jumps up onto the ropes, springboarding into the ring, only to be hit in mid air by Kronin who runs into the ring and spears Valora in mid air.  Valora rolls out of the ring to the floor, holding her ribs and Ryven pulls Videogame to his feet as Kronin gets to his feet as well and Ryven decks Videogame, sending him staggering backwards where he turns to find Kronin waiting.  Kronin nails him with a right hand, turning him to face Ryven who nails him with a left hand.  The two continue to alternate punches, bouncing Videogame back and forth between them.  Ryven bounces off the ropes, going for a clothesline, but Valora grabs him around the foot and trips him up, pulling him out onto the floor where she kicks him in the gut and then runs and jumps up, using her short hurrancanrana move to slam him face first into the floor.  In the ring, Kronin and Videogame trade punches with each other but finally Kronin grabs Videogame's fist and drops him to the mat hooking in the crossface, wrenching back as Valora sees the move and climbs up onto the apron, slingshotting over the ropes and hitting Kronin with a leg drop, breaking the submission hold.  Valora gets to her feet gritting her teeth and bounces off the ropes, catching Kronin as he gets up and taking him face first into the mat with another hurrancanrana like leg scissors face slam, before rolling over into a corner of the ring, holding her ribs and trying to breathe.]

Jack Gene - And this has completely broken down!  Luna Pier seems to have given up trying to keep only the legal people in and is letting this go almost tornado style!  Valora is effectively fighting a handicap match though as she has had to keep Ryven occupied but also come in to help Videogame from Kronin as well, a feat that is getting harder and harder with that injured midsection of Valora...

Bill Hughes - God Damn it!  This always happens to Valora!  First Pyre let her down, and now Videogame's dropping the ball!  That's it!  I'm starting a new charity!  'Find a real partner for Valora' foundation!  You can make donations at 1-800-

Jack Gene - Bill!

[Ryven reaches in and pulls Valora out to the floor, holding his hand out, measuring her before nailing a strike to her throat and immediately wrapping her in a side headlock, wrenching on the neck.  Videogame gets to his feet in the ring and starts moving towards Kronin, pulling Kronin to his feet when suddenly Kronin grabs Videogame's arms and spins around, dropping Videogame face first onto the mat and locking in a fujiwara armbar, pulling Videogame's arm back into Kronin's body, putting all the pressure on Videogame's elbow.  Videogame tries to fight the hold, gritting his teeth in pain as Luna Pier checks for a submission.]

Jack Gene - Wow! and Just like that folks, Kronin and Ryven have taken control of this match!  Valora is isolated outside the ring and Kronin has Videogame in a very painful armbar hold... given the damage already done to Videogame's arm... he needs to tap out now, before Kronin  breaks the arm!

Bill Hughes - No!  Fight that hold, you videogame loving nerd!  You can't let Valora down!!

[Kronin increases the pressure slowly but steadily in the ring as Luna Pier continues to ask Videogame if he wants to tap but Videogame shakes his head no.  Finally Kronin's frustration begins to show and he yanks back on the arm, increasing the pressure a good deal and suddenly, without warning Videogame cries out in intense pain and taps on the mat hard and fast.  Luna Pier immediately calls for the bell and without missing a beat waves for the medics to come down.  As Kronin releases the hold, Videogame curls up into a ball, holding his injured arm.]

Wayne Inkster - Ladies and Gentlemen, your winners, by way of submission and the new WMW Tag Team Champions, KRONIN AND RYVEN!!!!

Jack Gene - My God!  A sudden, violent end to this match as I think Kronin broke Videogame's arm!

Bill Hughes - I don't think he broke it... I think Videogame is just a wuss and tapped out... his arm doesn't look to be all funny and out of line, if anything, Kronin hyperextended Videogame's elbow...

Jak Gene - Which is still quite painful and a severe injury itself... he also could have done muscle and tissue damage to Videogame's arm.  We'll have to see folks... stayed tuned to WMW for medical updates.

[Ryven releases the hold and slides into the ring, taking his half of the tag team titles and celebrating with Kronin in the ring while Valora kicks the steel steps in frustration and shakes her head, walking over to check on Videogame as the medics wrap his arm up and with Valora's help, help Videogame backstage.]

Jack Gene - Well, this was definitely not the way Valora wanted to start the night here in Mexico City.  A tough, hard fought loss and her partner injured and now, you have to ask how much will she have left in the gas tank for her ASC match?  On the other side, Kronin proved he can win the big matches without AWS Man.  And now, he and Ryven are the tag team champions and with the top two submission specialists in the WMW on the same team...well that's going to be a huge mountain for the other tag teams in the WMW to climb...

Bill Hughes - Yeah, but the idiot Kronin will never be able to beat AWS Man now!  He's going to be less then 100%!

[The scene fades.]

El Dia '09 Buildup: Heartlands Championship

Hecate (c) vs. Audrie McLaughlin

Wayne Inkster - The following contest is scheduled for one fall and is for the Heartlands Division Championship! Introducing first, the challenger, hailing from San Francisco, California. She weights in tonight at 170lbs and stands 5' 10" tall, she is the San Francisco Shooter....AUDRIE 'THE BUTCHER" MCLAUGHLIN!!!

The lights go out as “When The Storm Comes,” by Blood For Blood hits and a single spot light shines down on the entrance ramp. Coming through the curtain, taped fists clenched, is Audrie McLaughlin. The black hood from her jacket keeps her face hidden as she makes her way down to the ring, shouldering past any fans reaching out to her. She moves up the steps and wipes her feet before entering the ring. She stands in the center of the ring and throws back her hood, making a cut throat motion.]

Jack Gene - Audrie McLaughlin has promised to win here tonight...no she's guaranteed that she will beat Hecate tonight.

Bill Hughes - Audrie is confident and cocky, but she might already be looking past Hecate to the shoot championship which could come back and cost her in this match.

Jack Gene - And with her promise that this would be the last time she was seen if she lost tonight, that puts alot of pressure on Audrie.

Bill Hughes - That was a very risky thing to promise, it hasn't worked out very well for others here. Maybe Audrie will be the one to break that streak.

Wayne Inkster - And currently making her way to the ring, hailing from Delphi, Greece and is the current reigning Heartlands Division Champion. She weighs in tonight at 158lbs and stands 5' 10" tall, she is a member of the Daughters of Darkness, the Dark Priestess herself......HECATE!!!

[The arena suddenly goes black as the opening cords to the "Dance of Curse from the Escaflowne soundtrack" starts to play through the arena as a single spot light shines down on a figure at the top of the entry ramp completely concealed by a full red cloak. The figure remains still for several moments as the song plays through the arena until it reaches a crescendo in the music, the figure then exploding into motion, tossing the cloak off and lifting one hand to the sky and looking up for a moment before dropping it's gaze to look at the wrestler in the ring. Dressed in gold and red, Hecate looks much like an ancient Greek with her red hot pants, gold top with a design like a Greek warrior's breastplate on it. On her arms she wears fingerless black and gold gloves, designed to look like bracers and her wrestling boots have been designed to look like leg greaves from the front and Hecate has applied warriors battle paint to her face for this match.]

Jack Gene - She changed her music again, she's going through as many theme songs as Valora is.

Bill Hughes - Well the two of them do hang out alot and train together, perhaps they are rubbing off on each other...I would pay to see that.

Jack Gene - Hecate is looking to reverse her recent luck against Audrie, so far in both confrontations, Hecate has come up short against Audrie.

Bill Hughes - She looks to be more focused that the last singles match these two had. This could turn into a very brutal match very quickly.

[Hecate starts to make her way down to the ring as the lights come back on, pausing about half way down the ramp and letting out a battle cry and pumping her fist in the air while Audrie paces back and forth in the ring with her eyes locked on Hecate. The crowd very mixed, some cheering for Audrie, some for Hecate but most seem to be booing both of the women as Hecate climbs into the ring. Referee Luna Pier making sure Audrie stays in her corner as Hecate climbs between the ropes and moves over to the center of the ring and kneels down on one knee, bowing her head a moment in a prayer before jumping up to both feet with another battle cry and moving to her corner. Both women come to the center of the ring where Luna Pier shows the Heartlands Belt to both wrestlers then lifts it above her head before one of the ring side attendants takes the belt out of the ring. When Luna Pier finishes going over the match instructions with both women, Hecate extends her hand towards Audrie who bats it aside and just glares at Hecate before Luna Pier sends both women back to their corners.]

Jack Gene - Wow! Hecate extended her hand in a pre-match gesture and Audrie just batted it away, Audrie certainly is setting the tone for this match even before it gets started.

Bill Hughes - Audrie said she didn't like Hecate at all, and has no intention of giving Hecate any respect it seems.

Jack Gene - What game plans do you think these two have going into the match, Audrie seems intent on showing she's a technical wrestler as well.

Bill Hughes - She might be, but might be better sticking with her brutal style that brought her to the match. Hecate doesn't have hard core experience and Audrie's already shown she can beat Hecate with that style.

Jack Gene - You don't think that Valora would have helped Hecate in that area?

Bill Hughes - Hardcore isn't something you can really teach a person, either they have that in them or they don't. Hecate is tough, no doubt about that and she can come at you with different styles, but the brutal hard core mentality is just not something she's used to. A grounded match favors Hecate a bit, but Audrie does have enough experience to keep up with Hecate long enough to overpower Hecate and put the champion away with her brutal butcher style.

Jack Gene - So you're predicting Audrie will win this match then. I can't believe that we actually agree with a pre-match prediction for once. Audrie seems to have Hecate's number and I think it will continue tonight. And Luna Pier is calling for the bell.

(Ring, ring, ring)

[Hecate and Audrie slowly move towards the center of the ring, Hecate lashing out with a quick low kick aimed at Audrie's leg but Audrie is able to dodge out of the way before the kick lands. Audrie backs up a moment and the two move towards each other again, this time Hecate feints the low leg kick but actually leaps forward and connects with an elbow to the side of Audrie's head, knocking Audrie back a few steps where she rubs the side of her face while glaring at Hecate. Finally the two lock up in the middle of the ring, jockeying back and forth for the advantage with neither one getting the edge for several moments but then Audrie gets the upper hand and breaks the lockup with a hammerlock on Hecate's left arm. Hecate twists to her right, sending the point of her elbow into Audrie's ribs over and over until Audrie breaks the hammerlock by yanking Hecate to the mat by the hair, earning Audrie a warning from Luna Pier which Audrie simply ignores.]

Jack Gene - Audrie once again showing her contempt not only for Hecate but perhaps for the WMW with her complete disregard of Luna Pier's warning after using the hair to take Hecate to the mat.

Bill Hughes - Expect to see alot more of that during this match. Audrie looks like she plans to do everything she can to belittle and ruin Hecate before destroying her. Just like she is doing now by standing on Hecate's hair and pulling her up by the arms.

[Audrie sports a sadistic smile as she pulls up on Hecate's arms, bringing a growl of pain from the prone woman, shoving downwards as she steps back at the count of four and a half, slamming the back of Hecate's head off the mat. As Hecate grabs the back of her head, Audrie runs and bounces off the ropes to deliver a running knee to the side of Hecate's head as the Champion start to get up, sending Hecate back down to the mat. As Hecate rolls over face down on the mat, Audrie steps up behind Hecate and grabs both her arms and lifts her up and placing one foot between Hecate's shoulder blades. Audrie looks around with a condescending look before lifting the foot off Hecate's shoulder blade's, kicking downwards to drive Hecate face first into the mat as Audrie releases her arms. Audrie continues her assault on the champion by lifting Hecate's legs up and grabbing the champion around the waist in a wheelbarrow hold, pausing a moment to smirk at the dazed champion, flipping her over backwards and slamming the back of Hecate's head and her shoulders into the mat with a wheelbarrow suplex. Audrie bridges up as she keeps her arms locked around Hecate's waist, turning the suplex into a pin attempt.]

Jack Gene - Good Lord! Audrie may be trying to knock Hecate out or give the champion a concussion. The Butcher is focusing on Hecate's head and neck and here is the first pin attempt of the match...Luna Pier in position...1...2...Hecate rolled her shoulder and broke up the pin attempt.

Bill Hughes - Nice series of high impact moves by Audrie there, but it's too early in the match to put Hecate away. Audrie needs to keep up with this style and keep wearing Hecate down.

[Audrie looks down at Hecate a moment before running and springing off the ropes, rushing back towards Hecate to connect with a short snap leg drop right across the back of Hecate's head. Rising to one knee, Audrie puts the shin of her leg across the back of Hecate's neck, grinding her head into the mat as Audrie paintbrushes the back of her head and yells down at Hecate as the champion thrashes underneath that leg. The Mexican fans are starting to cheer more for Hecate in response to Audrie's actions although Audrie is still getting a fair share of the cheers. Finally lifting off the champion, Audrie reaches down and pulls Hecate up by her hair, bending the champion over backwards and walks in place, spinning in a circle before drawing her thumb across her throat but before Audrie can lock in her Sweet Dreams submission hold, Hecate kicks off the mat and flips upwards to smash a knee into Audrie's face. The momentum of the flip and the impact of the knee sends Audrie down to the mat with Hecate landing on top of her before rolling off to the side.]

Jack Gene - The first real signs of life from the Champion, so far this match has been pretty much all Audrie, but that counter to the Sweet Dreams might have knocked some of Audrie's teeth out. Luna Pier is starting the ten count on both wrestlers.

Bill Hughes - That was a wicked knee strike by Hecate but lets see if she can follow it up with more offense. So far she's been about as effective as a blow up doll.

[Audrie gets to her knees as Hecate starts to get up, sliding over and clamping her arms around Hecate's head in a side head lock. Hecate grabs Audrie around the waste and turn, pulling Audrie over onto her back and shoulders but Audrie uses her legs to help roll back before Luna Pier can even get a one count. Hecate rolls her body once again, pressing Audrie's shoulders to the mat and gets a one count before Audrie is able roll back up to a sitting position. Audrie makes the grinding motion as she cinches down harder on the head lock but Hecate manages to get one knee under her and slips her head free while at the same time grabbing one of Audrie's arms and pulling it up into a hammer lock.]

Jack Gene - Audrie mixing up her attack, looks like she is going to try and keep Hecate grounded after that first overpowering assault.

Bill Hughes - I know Audrie holds Hecate and seemingly the rest of the WMW in utter contempt, but trying to out wrestle in a ground or mat match is like Valora trying to make Ryven tap out to a submission move. I think Audrie may be letting her contempt get the better of her judgment here.

[Audrie twists to the right then back to the left, trying to seek leverage to break the hammer lock, but Hecate just yanks up higher on the arm. Grimacing in pain from the hold, Audrie reaches down and pulls Hecate's leg up between her legs, sending the Champion off balance. As the pair falls to the mat, Audrie locks on a knee bar, trying to hyper-extend Hecate's knee. Hecate immediately counters by using her other leg, hooking it over her ankle and pulling back, bending her knee as she sits up and wraps Audrie's head under her arm, turning the knee bar into a headlock. Audrie release her attempt on the knee bar and as both wrestlers rise to their feet, wraps her arms around Hecate's waist and flips Hecate over her head in a release overhand belly to belly suplex.]

Bill Hughes - See that is what Audrie needs to stick with, the power and high impact moves. Hecate just has too many tricks to try to fight her in a ground or mat game.

Jack Gene - Hecate was able to almost instantly counter that knee bar attempt. Audrie will need to weaken Hecate alot more if she wants the ground game to be successful.

[As Hecate gets back to her feet, slowly after that suplex, Audrie moves up to hook her arms around Hecate's waist from behind this time but before Audrie can lift Hecate up into the suplex, Hecate locks her foot around Audrie's leg to block the attempt. Audrie goes for a second attempt at the belly to back suplex, but Hecate is able to block it again. Hecate then drops forward into a roll, using Audrie's position to off balance the challenger and as a result send Audrie stumbling ahead of her and through the ropes to the outside. Hecate wastes no time in using the ropes to spring board over the top and down onto Audrie in a splash which brings the loudest cheer from the audience so far this match. Referee Luna Pier warns both wrestlers to get back into the ring as the two of them slowly untangle themselves and get back to their feet.]

Jack Gene - And just like that Hecate is able to switch gears with that springboard splash over the top rope.

Bill Hughes - Hecate will need to keep mixing it up, keep Audrie off her toes but outside the ring favors Audrie more than it does Hecate.

[Hecate moves to get back into the ring, but Audrie stops her, pulling the champion back by the waistband of her hot pants and buries an elbow in the small of Hecate's back. Keeping a hold of Hecate's pants, Audrie delivers several more elbow shots to Hecate's lower back and spine before spinning Hecate around, grabbing one arm and whipping her across to crash head first into the ring steps. Quickly rolling in and out of the ring to break Luna Pier's ten count, Audrie stalks over to Hecate as the champion lays curled against the steel steps. Pulling Hecate up by her hair, Audrie grins as holds up Hecate's head to show the blood flowing down her face. Audrie looks down and actually spits in Hecate's face before going to whip her into the ring steps on the other side, but Hecate reverses it and sends Audrie face first into the ring steps. Wiping the blood from her eyes, Hecate rolls into the ring and moves up to the rope, gripping it with both hands and watching as Audrie starts to get back to her feet. Despite Luna Pier's warnings, Hecate uses the top rope to springboard over one more time, this time driving Audrie face first into the thin mats at ringside with a Hades Bound, bringing a huge cheer from the crowd.]

Jack Gene - OH!MY!GOD! Hecate just jumped over the top rope and connected with a Hades Bound on the outside! Neither woman is moving!

Bill Hughes - And these moronic dirty spics are eating it up. Don't they know that move would have hurt Hecate just as much as it did Audrie.

Jack Gene - Luna Pier is starting her ten count...Good!Lord! Both Hecate and Audrie are busted wide open now.

Bill Hughes - I told you this match would turn brutal, both women are starting to stir, but how much damage did Hecate do not only to Audrie with that move, but to herself.

[Luna is standing by the ropes, looking down on the bloody faces of Audrie and Hecate as the two fighters start pull themselves together....1....2....Hecate is holding her back as she uses the ring apron to pull herself up to one knee while Audrie rolls over onto all fours and puts one hand on the steel steps....3....4....Audrie is uses the steel steps to push herself upright, wiping the blood from her eyes as Hecate stumbles back against the opposite steel steps....5....6....with a growl, Audrie charges towards Hecate, looking to spear her into the ring post or the steps, but Hecate rolls into the ring and Audrie crashes hard into the steel steps. Hecate slips back out of the ring and pulls Audrie up to her feet, rolling the challenger into the ring before sliding in after her. Pulling Audrie to her feet, Hecate bends the challenger over and wraps her arms around Audrie's neck and then gripping her tights, lifting Audrie up and laying her feet over the top rope, walking backwards until just Audrie's feet are on the ropes. Lifting her arm and howling out a battle cry which seems to fire the fans up again, Hecate then drives her forearm into Audrie's shoulder blades while falling backwards to the mat, driving Audrie's bloody face into the mat. Hecate quickly rolls Audrie over, covering her for a pinfall. Luna Pier drops into position...1...2....Audrie manages to get her leg on the rope to break up the pinfall attempt.]

Jack Gene - Audrie tried to spear Hecate into the steel steps and it certainly backfired as Hecate was able to get out of the way. I'm not sure how Audrie managed to get her foot on the rope but she did after that brutal DDT move from Hecate.

Bill Hughes - Both women have been beaten up, are bloody messes, I am not sure how much more punishment either of these women can take. Hecate may have been right when she said the only way Audrie would get the title was to pry it out of her lifeless hands.

Jack Gene - What a minute, is that Mo' Bad at the top of the entrance ramp? What is he doing here...

Bill Hughes - Looks like he came out to watch the match, remember Hecate did distract him at Graveyard Shift 100 which lead to Amariie being victorious.

[Mo' Bad starts to walk down to ringside, he's wearing a Valora t-shirt and has one of her bandanna's on his head, strolling around the ring and jawing with some of the fans, most likely trying to push his Mo' Bad restructuring plan on them which they respond with by booing Mo' Bad loudly. Neither Audrie or Hecate seem to notice Mo' bad at ringside as Hecate pulls Audrie to her feet, hooking her up for another DDT, but this time hooking her arms under Audrie's knees and with a slight push off, flips over, bringing Audrie with her and driving the challengers head into the mat. Hecate rolls Audrie over and goes for another pinfall but Luna Pier isn't around to make the count.]

Jack Gene - Good!Lord!Almighty! That has to be it! Hecate just connected with her flip DDT on Audrie who looks to be completely out after that move. But where it the referee!?!

Bill Hughes - Luna Pier is busy with Mo' Bad, it looks like he is trying to point something out to her.

Jack Gene - Hecate just realizes that Luna is not there to make the count, she's up and moving over to the side of the ring where Luna and Mo' Bad are. Hecate is pointing back towards where Audrie is still down and making a pin count motion but Luna is pointing to Mo' Bad.

[As Luna and Hecate confront Mo' Bad, Audrie gets to her hands and knees and crawls over to the corner, pulling herself up and starts to take the pad off the top turnbuckle. Mo' Bad, meanwhile takes the Valora bandanna off and wipes himself down with it before balling it up and throwing it at Hecate who looks ready to come through the ropes, blood dripping all down her face and onto her ring attire. Hecate stops and with a grin on her face, bends down and picks the bandanna up, rolling it out and tying it around her forehead, the bandanna quickly getting soaked with Hecate's blood as Luna gives Mo' Bad one look and makes the over exaggerated ejection motion, sending Mo' Bad to the back amid cheers from the Mexican fans for both the ejection and Hecate donning Valora's bandanna. On the other side of the ring, Audrie finishes pulling the turnbuckle padding off and tosses it into the fans before pushing herself out of the corner.]

Jack Gene - The fans are going wild as Hecate puts on the Valora bandanna, consummating it with her own blood. Mo' Bad's attempt to get under Hecate's skin might have backfired.

Bill Hughes - Maybe not, it did distract both Hecate and Luna Pier, allowing Audrie to get the padding off the top turnbuckle, that could play a critical roll later in this match.

Jack Gene - Yeah what a way to potentially cheapen what has been a great match between these two so far.

[As security staff escorts Mo' Bad to the back after his ejection, Hecate turns back towards Audrie only get taken down by a running spear from the challenger. Audrie, her own face a crimson mask of  fresh and dried blood, gets in the mount position and starts raining punches and elbows down on Hecate but the Greek wrestler quickly counters by bringing her legs up and around Audrie's arms, using them to pull Audrie down to the mat. The champion grabs a hold of one of Audrie's legs, wrapping her arm around the Achilles tendon and pressing down on the knee with her other hand. Audrie grimaces and growls out in pain before she is able to roll herself over and grab the ropes to break the hold.]

Jack Gene - What the hell, Hecate with what appeared to be a variation of an ankle lock that Audrie was very quick to find a way out of.

Bill Hughes - That is a Pankration Achilles leg lock, can very easily break a leg or rupture the Achilles tendon, Audrie was smart to get out of that hold quickly.

Jack Gene - Both wrestlers look like that are running on fumes though right now, Hecate's submission skills can really make the difference at this point.

Bill Hughes - Both of them need to start thinking about serious putting this match away. Audrie seems hesitant to go with her tried and true FYL.

Jack Gene - She must be figuring Amariie shared the counter to that with Hecate, which means Audrie must be thinking submission to beat Hecate at her own game or she has something else in store for the champion.

Bill Hughes - Audrie tried for the Sweet Dreams earlier in the match, so look for her to go for that again. Hecate, this is where she really is dangerous for she really does like to switch things up and she has moves that could really end it fast

Jack Gene - Like she did with Dess a few weeks ago. Audrie just ducked a spinning roundhouse kick by Hecate and connected with jumping Enziguri to the back of Hecate's head!

[Audrie wipes some more blood from her face, flicking it down onto the back and hair of Hecate before pulling the champion up to her feet, locking both of Hecate's arms in a double under hook and grinning sadistically as she starts into her series of knee strikes to the seemingly defenseless Hecate. After the first couple knee strikes, Hecate hops a little, just enough to hook both her legs around the back of Audrie's knees, shifting her weight and causing Audrie not to be able to strike with those knees. The counter overbalances Audrie enough that the woman falls backwards to the mat, turning the move into a double under hook DDT. Somehow Hecate has the presence of mind to grab onto Audrie closest arm as she rolls away from Audrie and quickly twist, bringing both her legs around the grapevine the arm and tries to cinch in an armbar.]

Jack Gene - I am still not sure exactly what happened there, it all happened so fast but it started with the FYF by Audrie and ended with an arm bar submission hold by Hecate.

Bill Hughes - This is the exhaustion factor playing in, Hecate made sure she trained for several days in the conditions down here which no one knows if Audrie even considered Hecate enough of a threat to do. If it had been earlier in the match, Hecate might not have been able to counter that or if she did come out in the dominant position like she has.

[Hecate twists on Audrie's arm and tries to get her legs locked around the arm, but Audrie is about to get her other arm in between them, keeping Hecate from fully getting the hold locked on. With a grimace, Audrie rises up to one knee, while Hecate holds on and does a forwards roll to get close enough to put a foot on the rope. Luna Pier forces Hecate to break the submission hold, which she does at the count of four. Hecate climbs back to her feet only to be on the receiving end of bull rush by Audrie, which takes Hecate down to the mat. Using Hecate's own hair, Audrie slams the back of Hecate's head into the mat over and over until Luna Pier forces her to break it up. Rising to her feet with a condescending look on her face, Audrie once again makes a cutthroat motion across her neck with her thumb.]

Jack Gene - Looks like Audrie is sensing victory here, she's eying that exposed turnbuckle too. I think she has something diabolical planned for the champion.

Bill Hughes - Audrie went back to her brutal butcher style, over powering Hecate and she primed to take her place as the Heartlands Champion.

[Audrie pulls Hecate back up to her feet by Hecate's hair, but Hecate breaks free and ducks an elbow strike attempt by Audrie and responds by burying a knee in Audrie's midsection. After an elbow strike of her own to the side of Audrie's head, Hecate whips Audrie across the ring, off the ropes and catches Audrie in an Arn Anderson style spinning spine buster. Hecate takes a few steps back, crouching slightly and motioning for Audrie to get to her feet, a wicked expression forming on her face.]

Jack Gene - I think Hecate is stalking Audrie to deliver another Hades Bound to the challenger.

Bill Hughes - Audrie might be expecting that but Hecate has shown she can connect with that move from just about anywhere and any direction.

[Audrie makes it back to her feet just as Hecate starts to rush in, Audrie brings her arms up to fend off any attempt at the Hades Bound but Hecate just grins and delivers what is commonly called the Spartan Kick to Audrie's midsection which drops Audrie to the mat like a sack of potatoes. Hecate doesn't give Audrie a chance to recover, dropping down in a kneeling position over Audrie's body and twisting Audrie so she is on her side. Hecate then bends Audrie's arm in double, looping one of her arms though it and locking onto her other arm as she starts to pull Audrie's arm and shoulder back towards her spine rather violently.]

Bill Hughes - Holy Shit! I thought that move was just made up for the movie the 300, you mean there is actually a real Spartan Kick?

Jack Gene - Hecate with another new submission move, whatever is it, it got Audrie tapping out almost right away. Hecate has just beating Audrie McLaughlin to retain the Heartlands Championship.

Bill Hughes - That is a Pankration shoulder lock, if Audrie didn't tape out Hecate could have easily dislocated Audrie's shoulder or worse, that is not something you want to be in for long.

Jack Gene - So that was what Kronin was talking about when he was on Mat Briefs with Mischa.

[Hecate looks at Audrie as she is handed the Heartlands Belt and extends a hand to Audrie, who bats Hecate's hand away and rolls out of the ring. Hecate gets her hand raised in victory by Luna Pier before climbing the turnbuckle and lifting the Heartlands Title over her head as the fans cheer loudly, blood still pouring down her face.]
