L I V E A T T H E PAUL SAUVE ARENA
October 23, 2019
Once again the Paul Sauve Arena is packed full as excited PSW fans continue to arrive, each one keeping hold of there favorite wrestlers merchandise as they rush to purchase whatever they can before it's all sold out. The chatter among the fans is at an all-time high as they can't stop talking about the recent pay per view Cosmic Collision as part of the XHF Networks End of Days tournament.
The commentators and the rest of the staff can all be seen heading to their workspaces as the scheduled wrestlers are all arriving and heading to their locker rooms. The hockey sirens go off as the lights dim and the overhead Video Tron begins to play the PSW Galaxy Wars: Saga Three video...
Terry Sanders: Welcome ladies and gentlemen to Galaxy Wars: Saga Three. I'm Terry Sanders and sitting next to me is my partner in flight David West.
David West: Thanks for that introduction Terry, boy do we have a show lined up for our fans tonight. We will find out here tonight who will go onto round two of the Shooting Star Cup to eventually head to Bronx Battle Mayhem to face "Devilish" Donny Deville for the Phantomweight World Championship.
Terry Sanders: At Cosmic Collision, we saw Donny Deville crowned as the first-ever champion, and tonight we start the process of finding his first-ever challenger.
David West: As I said before this Saga will go down in the history books Terry, and set us up for the future and that future is heading to the Bronx.
Once again as David finishes speaking you can hear the chants of "COSMO KID" throughout the arena as the fans want to see the innovator of flight and the creator of Phantom Star Wrestling. They chant drowning out the broadcast team until "Don't Stop Believing" by Journey begins to play...
The Cosmo Kid comes running out through the fans slapping hands with a lot of the fans. He slides into the ring and runs the ropes bouncing off of them until he finally jumps to the top turnbuckle and does a Backflip into the center of the ring where he stands with his arms held out as he holds a star-shaped microphone.
The Cosmo Kid: WOW, what a crowd we have here tonight, welcome to Galaxy Wars: Saga Three... You all look like you're ready for some high flying, all-out non-stop action here tonight. Well, man do we have a show for you starting the night off we have two of the best female competitors, excuse me let me take that back two of the best competitors in the world facing off as Alexia faces Bellatrix.
The crowd erupts into loud cheers and applause as The Cosmo Kid stands there smiling looking out into the crowd.
The Cosmo Kid: Then we will give you even more action as the first Shooting Star Cup winner Space Oddity takes on "The Perpectual One" Matt Simpson in what should be a classic. And to end the night we will give you an amazing tag team division match as The Dark Stars try to come back from their recent loss to the Dark Novas to beat two of the most talented singles competitors today Lucas Swann and Rent-A-Hero. We will see what will happen in that one.
The crowd is now on their feet cheering "COSMO KID, COSMO KID. COSMO KID" as he continues to speak.
The Cosmo Kid: Thank you all now let's wait no longer and let's get this show in the air and allow our ring announcer Alejandro Martin to do his job and get the party started. Enjoy everyone.
Match-up #1 - Shooting Star Cup Round One
"The Tyrant" Bellatrix Taylor vs "The White Star" Alexia
Alejandro Martin: Ladies and Gentleman our first match of the night is a Shooting Star Cup round one match introducing first... Hailing from Dunedin, New Zealand, weighing in at 121 pounds, and standing at 5'4". She is a dominant force in wrestling as she calls herself "The Tyrant", she is Bellatrix Taylor!!!
Steel bars slowly lower down in front of the black curtains. "I Am The Tyrant" by FROZEN CROWN bursts into the arena as a brunette known as Bellatrix Taylor appears behind the bars and begin shaking them. Looking unamused at this she steps back, jumps forward and punches the bars down. Looking more satisfied at herself Bellatrix makes her way down to the ring, gets on the apron facing the hard camera and yells out "TYRANT!" before entering the ring, via seductively bending over the middle rope, and punching her right hand into the air.
Terry Sanders: Now, David, this girl has a bright future in this business and she's here in PSW to prove it.
David West: Well, "The Tyrant" will have her hands full tonight as she faces "The White Star" whose not in a very good mood after her loss at Cosmic Collision.
Terry Sanders: Yeah, but she almost became our first champion and tonight she can't let that get in her head because she faces "The Tyrant".
Alejandro Martin: ...And his opponent for this Shooting Star Cup round one match... Hailing from Camden, England. Weighing in at a firm, fit 144 pounds and standing at a vivacious 5'5". She is a take no names, beat 'em up, type of bitch, she is "The White Star" Alexia!!!
With the start to Bring Me The Horizon's "Sugar Honey Iced & Tea" brings the lights to a mixture of red and white colors.
'Cause it's got my head running 24/7
I don't know if I can figure it out
It's all messed up, only one thing I know for sure
We're so full of
That's when Alexia enters the arena and already asserts her dominance with the stance she performs on the stage.
Sugar, honey, ice, and tea
Sugar, honey, ice, and tea
Everybody's full of sugar, honey, ice, and tea
Sugar, honey, ice, and tea
Alexia makes her way to the ring with a purpose, not looking back at the fans as she enters the ring and waiting for the match to start.
Terry Sanders: And here she is David, the next Phantomweight World champion, I do believe she will claim her spot once again.
David West: She will try but she has to make past "The Tyrant" first then the other competitors and there is a bunch of talent in this Shooting Star cup.
Terry Sanders: Well just listen to these fans they're about to blow the roof off the place, they are ready for the match to start.
Referee Emilie Rose signals for the bell...
DING... DING...
The bell sounds and a stiff kick to the back of Alexia's knee knock's her down, and Bellatrix Taylor quickly takes the mounted position and rains down punches and hammer fists. The Dark Novas stand at ringside, a big grin on their face until referee Emilie Rose sends them to the back. The Dark Novas cheer Alexia on as they back up the ramp. Alexia bucks the hips and pushes the smaller Bellatrix Taylor off her.
Terry Sanders: Talk about David versus Goliath, here tonight.
David West: There's nothing biblical about this Terry. The only lesson that can be learned here is for "The White Star" that don't underestimate your opponent.
Terry Sanders: That's right David!
Bellatrix Taylor does a forward roll, then charges Alexia as if she's looking for a stiff clothesline, but Alexia manages to catch her arm. With a shout to pump up the audience, Bellatrix Taylor uses the moment and leaps straight up onto the top rope! She walks out several steps and leaps off, whipping Alexia across the ring with a rope-walk arm drag!
Terry Sanders: "The White Star" doesn't have a guaranteed Championship match in her pocket anymore so she can't be looking past tonight's match.
David West: Let's not sleep on those like Space Oddity, Dread Wolf, Lucas Swann, or Cleaver all three are hungry for Phantom Star Wrestling gold.
Terry Sanders: You better believe that I believe the whole roster is hungry, David.
Alexia quickly gets to her feet and comes off the ropes and brings herself up short of colliding with Bellatrix Taylor. Spinning around in a quick circle, Bellatrix Taylor blasts Alexia with a discus elbow! But she doesn't stop there! Bellatrix Taylor continues around for another circle, hitting another elbow! And a third! A FOURTH! Looking a little dizzy herself, the dominant force hauls back and hits one final elbow, sending Alexia reeling.
Terry Sanders: "The Tyrant" is putting everything she has into those elbows!
David West: It's paying dividends, as she has her larger opponent on wobbly legs.
Terry Sanders: "The White Star", is on the losing end so far in this match.
Bellatrix Taylor hits the ropes to gain momentum for another discus elbow, but Alexia grabs her by the waist, picks Bellatrix Taylor up and slams her face down to the mat with a variation of the flapjack.
Alexia stands over Bellatrix Taylor, with a smile on her face she kneels over her, straddling her back. Alexia grabs her by the ponytail, pulls her head up off the mat and slams her with a series of Crossface forearm blows. Bellatrix Taylor is bleeding from the nose and the lip from the forearm shots. Alexia, still holding her by the ponytail, whispers something in her ear before letting go and letting her face bounce off the mat.
Terry Sanders: This is a reason why there weight classes "The White Star" is just too strong for the much smaller "Tyrant".
David West: Of course she's in the same weight class everyone in this company is in the same weight class, Jesus Christ, Terry.
Terry Sanders: Just saying, she looks a bit big compared to "The Tyrant".
Alexia turns her back on Bellatrix Taylor, walks over to the ropes facing the entranceway, and calls out The Dark Novas. She turns to the fans at ringside and begins jawing with them, totally ignoring her opponent. Bellatrix Taylor wills herself to her feet and hits Alexia with a spinning kick. As Alexia bounces off the ropes, Bellatrix Taylor hits another spin kick, then rolls her up. Referee Emilie Rose slides in for the three counts...
One...
Two...
Alexia kicks out at two, but Bellatrix Taylor transitions into the mounted position and begins dropping bombs on Alexia. Referee Emilie Rose admonishes Bellatrix Taylor to stop with the punches, which distracts her just long enough for Alexia to push her off and roll out of the ring.
Terry Sanders: Regardless of the weight difference "The White Star" is getting pummeled.
David West: She sure is Terry, I think "The White Star" is still thinking about her loss at Cosmic Collision.
Terry Sanders: She needs to focus on "The Tyrant" or we will see her lose again tonight.
As Alexia leans against the ring apron trying to catch her breath, Bellatrix Taylor comes off the ropes with a baseball slide dropkick, that sends her into the ring barricade. Alexia is incensed and shakes the ring barricade and dumps the ring steps over. Bellatrix Taylor stands in the center of the ring, challenging Alexia to get in and fight.
David West: Looks as if "The Tyrant" wants to fight.
Alexia storms into the ring and comes off the ropes with a head of steam, looking like she's going to plow right through the much smaller Bellatrix Taylor with a quickness, Bellatrix Taylor suddenly leaps up and catches Alexia with a jumping leg lariat that stalls her momentum. Another kick from Bellatrix Taylor drops Alexia like a ton of bricks, hitting the mat in a seated position. Bellatrix Taylor wastes no time dashing forward from behind, catching Alexia's head with her arm as she somersaults over her for a rolling neck snap! Back on her feet in a flash, she bounces off the ropes and catches Alexia square in the face with a dropkick! Bellatrix Taylor quickly goes for the cover as referee Emilie Rose gets in position for the count.
One...
Two...
David West: "The White Star" with a strong kickout.
Terry Sanders: I think "The Tyrant" caught her off guard with that dropkick!
Alexia kicks out at the count of two, quickly gets to her feet and mows Bellatrix Taylor down with a lariat. Bellatrix Taylor gets to her feet and is taken down again by another lariat. Alexia grabs her by the ankle and the wrist and drags her to the corner. The crowd looks on in awe as Alexia looks like she may just climb the turnbuckle. Bellatrix Taylor thinks quick and jostles the ropes, causing Alexia to fall into a seated position and fall backward, tangling himself up in the tree of woe position. Smiling from ear to ear, Bellatrix Taylor backs all the way to the opposite corner and then surges forward, hitting a huge running dropkick to Alexia! Alexia's foot comes loose as she falls into the corner and rolls out to the floor.
Terry Sanders: Once gain "The White Star" goes to the floor.
David West: It’s a sound strategy, actually, Terry. She can't be pinned on the floor.
Referee Emilie Rose goes to the floor to start the ten count on Alexia. Bellatrix Taylor runs the ropes and leaps over the top with a Tope con Helo, but at the last second Alexia pulls referee Emilie Rose in front of her, making her take the full brunt of Bellatrix Taylor's offense. With both Bellatrix Taylor and referee Emilie Rose down, Alexia goes over, grabs a steel chair, and sits down next to her opponent. Bellatrix Taylor begins to stir, so Alexia stands up and waits for her. Bellatrix Taylor slowly turns around and walks right into a monstrous Spinebuster onto the chair. Bellatrix Taylor crumples to the floor as the crowd rains down boos on Alexia.
"BOO, BOO, BOO, BOO"
Terry Sanders: Why would "The White Star" do that to "The Tyrant"? There was no reason at all for that!
David West: She's wanting to make a statement, and she’s making an emphatic one.
Terry Sanders: Yeah but at what cost, David, at what cost?
Alexia rolls Bellatrix Taylor into the ring and picks her up to her feet. She kicks her in the stomach and grabs her around the neck as she's about to hit the White Star Driver. The crowd pops at first but then boos as Alexia stops short, sneers, then gave the crowd the finger. Alexia then picks Bellatrix Taylor to give her the Cataclysm. Before Alexia can drop Bellatrix Taylor on her head, Bellatrix Taylor drives her knee into the crown of her head, then does it again. A third knee causes Alexia to loosen her grip on Bellatrix Taylor, who floats over and uses her, weakened condition to roll-up Alexia for a pin referee Emilie Rose slides in for the three counts.
One...
Two...
Three...
Terry Sanders: "The Tyrant" has done it, she beat "The White Star" and advances.
David West: What a match Terry, what a match.
The crowd explodes as Bellatrix Taylor slides under the bottom rope to celebrate on the floor with the ringside fans. Meanwhile, in the ring, Alexia sits, dumbfounded, looking up at referee Emilie Rose while holding up two fingers. The referee reiterates that the pinfall was a clean three count.
Terry Sanders: let's get the official word from Alejandro Martin.
Alejandro Martin: Ladies and Gentleman your winner of the Shooting Star cup first-round match and advancing to round two "The Tyrant" Bellatrix Taylor!!!
The overhead video tron begins to play live footage from the backstage interview area as it shows Gill Snider and his guest sitting around an extravagant set.
Gill Snider: Welcome, welcome to "The Next Shooting Star" with your host me, Gill Snider. My guest tonight is none other than the brand new Phantomweight World Champion "Devilish" Donny Deville!!!
Donny Deville can be seen sitting right across from Gill Snider dressed as a champion should be.
Gill Snider: Welcome Donny, and congratulations on the huge win and making history at Cosmic Collision. Now, I have several questions from fans around the world so let's not waste any time and get straight to it. So how does it feel to have won the Phantomweight World Championship and be the first-ever champion here in PSW?
Donny has a big smile on his face and looks to the belt slung over his shoulder. He taps it a few times for effect.
Donny Deville: This little number right here? I’ll say it means a lot of different things to me. First, it’s an honor to be the first to earn the right to carry it. I have total confidence this will become one of the biggest prizes in the industry. Whoever holds it will go down as legendary. Second? It’s a reminder of the hard work it took me to get here. There have been many setbacks, but this is an affirmation that with enough hard work anything is possible. And not just a reminder for me, but for anyone out there who aspires for more than what they have.
The fans are all on their feet as they watch the champion speak.
Gill Snider: What did you think of your opponent "The White Star" Alexia?
Donny Deville: I admit, leading up towards the match, I started taking that warrior for granted. I didn’t realize the amount of zeal, the sheer determination in her heart. We had a hell of a match. I had to use dang near every trick in the book to pull out a win. Alexia, you’re something special. Don’t let this set you back, instead, dig in deep and grind harder. One day you hold this prize too if you commit yourself to it.
Gill Snider: What will you do now that you sit on top of the world as champion?
Donny Deville: Well, as I’m sure every champion in the biz knows, it’s hard to hold onto gold. As soon as you let yourself become comfortable, someone’s gonna sneak up on you and take it. It’s like being in the middle of an ocean of sharks with a cut on your leg. There are many hungry talents here in PSW and I would be remiss to discount that simple fact. So I’m going to watch this tournament carefully. Scout out each and every one of them. Not because I’m scared of them, but because I respect them. Whoever happens to come out on top, be warned though. I will be ready and no matter who comes out on the other side of that, it will be a war.
Gill leans back in his chair with a look of intrigue at the response from the champion "Devilish".
Gill Snider: Now that the Shooting Star Cup tournament is starting and the first couple of matches have been announced who do you think will win and who would you want to win the tournament?
Donny Deville: Now I’m not one to brag, but like I mentioned before I welcome any challenger. Though if you want a few names I’d like to stretch in the ring? Alexia again, of course, this time she could prove she wasn’t a one and done. Then there’s a guy like Lucas Swann. He had his first major setback in EOD, but maybe he can find a way to turn it around.
The fans start to chant "DEVILISH, CHAMP, DEVILISH, CHAMP, DEVILISH" throughout the arena as they watch the interview.
Gill Snider: What are your plans now?
Donny Deville: I’m going to be the person “Devilish” Donny I can be in order to bring a positive light to not only PSW but the entire world. I’m going to hit the gym even harder, I’m going to watch the film but I’m also going to go out to every single event PSW books me for. From the sold-out arenas where our shows take place, to the 10-12 person small town signings. It’s time to get our brand out there, and I’m the perfect, positive voice to do so. So those of you at home watching this, please, come out and support the best wrestling on the planet. You will not regret it.
Gill Snider: Now that's a guest I like, and thanks to the champion for being here. Well everyone thanks for being here and once again welcome to Phantom Star Wrestling. Ladies and gentleman that wraps up the fourth installment of "The Next Shooting Star" with your host me, Gill Snider.
Terry Sanders: Now that's a champion I can get behind, David.
David West: He does seem very humble and proud to be representing Phantom Star Wrestling.
Terry Sanders: Absolutely and I can't wait to see who he will defend against first.

Match-up #2 - Shooting Star Cup Round One
"The Superhero Supernova" Space Oddity vs "The Perpetual One" Matt Simpson
Alejandro Martin: Ladies and gentlemen, our second match of the night is a Shooting Star cup first-round match, introducing first... Hailing from unknown origins, weighing in at a gravity-defying weight of 200 pounds and standing at 5'10". He is the star of stars, "The Superhero Supernova" Space oddity!!!
An abridged version of Powerman 5000's "Space Oddity" cover hits and a sci-fi light show plays across the stage as smoke fills the entranceway. As the music ramps up in intensity, Space Oddity walks out through the curtain and takes a knee, head down - waiting for the lyrics to kick in. As they do, he springs up and runs the aisle to the ring, sliding under the bottom rope and then running up to the top of one of the turnbuckles as stars are projected down into the ring and across the crowd. The music fades out and the lights come back up, as Oddity jumps down into his corner.
Terry Sanders: Here he is the winner of the first-ever Shooting Star Cup tournament "The Superhero Supernova".
David West: Yeah he did great, we were hoping he would repeat at the XHF Networks End of Days tournament and bring some publicity to PSW but it just didn't happen as he lost in the first round.
Terry Sanders: That's in the past David, "The Superhero Supernova" is about to repeat his first Shooting Star Cup appearance.
Alejandro Martin: ...And his opponent for this Shooting Star Cup round one match... Hailing from Springfield, Kentucky. Weighing in at a feathery 168 pounds and standing at 5' 6". He is a dreamer of stars, he is "The Perpetual One" Matt Simpson!!!
The music plays as Simpson comes out from the back. He moves slowly to the melancholic tune. Making his way into the ring.
Terry Sanders: Now here's a guy who had one hell of a showing so far in PSW.
David West: he hasn't won a match yet, what are you talking about?
Terry Sanders: It's not all about winning and losing it's how you deal with it and what you do outside the ring as well to represent the company. And "The Perpetual One" is one hell of a worker.
Referee Emilie Rose signals for the bell...
DING... DING...
The bell sounds and the two men approach each other and quickly go in for a collar and elbow tie-up. Space Oddity cranks a headlock on Matt Simpson. Matt Simpson quickly backs Space Oddity into the ropes, pushing him off. As Space Oddity hits the ropes, he looks to come back with a clothesline but Matt Simpson elevates him over the top rope! Space Oddity lands on the apron! Space Oddity slingshots over...Matt Simpson catches him in a fireman's carry! Space Oddity with vicious elbows to get out of the predicament, he lands on his feet behind Matt Simpson, cinching in a reverse Waistlock...German Suplex into the turnbuckles!
David West: That had to hurt.
Terry Sanders: "The Perpetual One" fell awkwardly on his head but seems okay. Lucky there if you ask me.
Matt Simpson lays on the mat, reeling from the impact of the German Suplex. Space Oddity backs away from the corner allowing Matt Simpson to get back to his feet and the official motions for the two men to lock it up. Matt Simpson ducks an incoming clothesline and slows his own momentum. As soon as Space Oddity turns around to face Matt Simpson’s back Matt Simpson leaps up and nails a Pele kick and makes a cover referee Emilie Rose moves in for the count...

Terry Sanders: Kick out...
David West: "The Perpetual One" trying to catch "The Superhero Supernova" off guard with that quick cover.
Space Oddity is down but beginning to stand. Matt Simpson races across the ring and leapfrogs over him, heading straight for the corner. Matt Simpson leaps directly up to the top turnbuckle and turns around, leaping off to catch Space Oddity with a diving Crossbody as soon as he stands!
David West: "The Perpetual One" with some big-time air!
Terry Sanders: The Booker man got it right with this bout!
Space Oddity grabs hold of Matt Simpson delivers a Snap Suplex! Space Oddity heads to the top rope but before he can take flight, Matt Simpson gets to his feet. Matt Simpson charges at the corner but Space oddity leaps over him and rolls through when he lands!

Space Oddity with a sudden burst of energy stands and sends Matt Simpson into the ropes. Matt Simpson hits and rebounds, Space Oddity drops as Matt Simpson leaps over him. Space Oddity is on his feet again and pursuing, but Matt Simpson flips forward onto his hands, hits the ropes with his body, and bounces back for a handspring back elbow right on the jaw!
Terry Sanders: That has to be a turning point in this match, David.
David West: "The Perpetual One" has to make a cover or build some momentum after that one.
Matt Simpson pulls Space Oddity back up to his feet, he comes up with both hands blocking the tie-up. Space Oddity whips Matt Simpson into the corner...Matt Simpson reverses sending Space Oddity in!

Terry Sanders: Kick out, "The Perpetual One" shoves him off at the last second.
David West: You have to appreciate a solid Superkick, Terry.

Space Oddity appears to be on dream street! Matt Simpson winds up for another but Space Oddity ducks! Matt Simpson still catches him with a reverse elbow! Space Oddity backs into the ropes, spinning heel kick! Both men are down! The fans are going wild as they cheer for their favorite.
Terry Sanders: Be a shame if this one ended in a draw.
Referee Emilie Rose begins counting the two men laying on the mat wide-eyed and staring up at the lights...

Space Oddity it the first to his feet but Matt Simpson is up as well and he hits the ropes coming off an Irish whip. Space Oddity looks like he’s going in low, so Matt Simpson goes high! Matt Simpson leaps over Space Oddity and hooks the neck, bringing Space oddity down with a spinning sit-out sleeper slam and makes the cover as referee Emilie Rose slides in for the three counts...
One...
Two...
Terry Sanders: What a near fall he almost won on that.
Matt Simpson slaps then mat and back into the corner while Space Oddity makes it to one knee. With Matt Simpson stalking him from behind follows him into the corner, Space Oddity starts to get a foot under himself Matt Simpson takes off at a run, hopping up to catch Space Oddity with his legs and drill him into the mat and hooks the leg for a cover referee Emilie Rose is right there for the count.
One...
Two...
David West: "The Perpetual One" calls that the "Olympic Qualifier".
Terry Sanders: No David, that's called almost a victory!
David West: Oh for Heaven's sake, Terry.
Matt Simpson jumps up and begins to celebrate as he thinks he has won as referee Emilie Rose tries to calm him down and explain that Space Oddity kicked out at two, Space Oddity slowly makes his way behind Matt Simpson and quickly latches on the Rings of Saturn submission hold.
David West: RINGS OF SATURN, RINGS OF SATURN, RINGS OF SATURN.
The fans are going crazy as referee Emilie Rose watches Matt Simpson, to see if he wants to quit or tap out. But Matt Simpson refuses to give he continues to fight trying to escape the extremely painful hold but Space Oddity clenches it in even tighter forcing Matt Simpson to tap out. Referee Emilie Rose signals for the bell.
DING... DING... DING...
Space Oddity rolls over onto his back and rises slowly with one arm over his head and the other hand on his stomach until the official walks over grabbing his off-hand and raising in victory. As Space Oddity stands there "Devilish" Donny Deville Comes up from behind him grabbing him quickly setting Space Oddity up for "The Tumbler". But instead of delivering the move he lets him go staring at him before jumping out of the ring and making his way up the ramp.
David West: It appears that the Champion wanted to make a statement to his possible future contender here tonight.
Terry Sanders: It appears he has, but "The Superhero Supernova" has done it, he's advanced to round two.
David West: He definitely earned this win tonight against "The Perpetual One".
Terry Sanders: Let's go to Alejandro Martin for the official word.
Alejandro Martin: Ladies and Gentleman your winner and advancing to round two of the Shooting Star Cup "The Superhero Supernova" Space Oddity.
The overhead video tron begins to play but instead of the normal advertisement for one of the great XHF Network companies, the arena is filled with "The Sound of Silence" by Disturbed as an unusually familiar video play's.
As the video for the former Dark Horse Wrestling companies introduction video from last year ends, we see the arena fill with smoke as a blue light appears at the top of the entrance ramp. "The Dark One" Ryan Cullen can be seen kneeling down as he holds a huge Celtic Cross in his hands. The fans are silenced throughout the place as "The Dark One" slowly walks down the ramp as he stares holes into the crowd. As he reaches the ring he methodically walks up the steel steps climbing into the ring. He places the Celtic Cross on the closest turnbuckle as he pulls out a microphone and begins to speak.
"The Dark One" Ryan Cullen: Mark Twain once said, “Everyone is a moon, and has a dark side which he never shows to anybody.” Phantom Star Wrestling welcome to that dark side.
As Ryan Cullen ends his sentence he drops the microphone and slowly exits the ring still leaving the fans in stunned and shocked silence. As the video tron shows nothing but the Dark Horse Logo...
Terry Sanders: What the hell was that? Who the hell was that, David?
David West: If my wrestling and business knowledge don't fail me that is Ryan Cullen they call him "The Dark One" and for good reason. He is the former owner of Dark Horse Wrestling and the founder and CEO of Dark Horse Industries.
Terry Sanders: Well, it appears he has arrived here in Phantom Star Wrestling but the question on everyone's mind here tonight is "WHY"?

Alejandro Martin enters the ring holding his microphone as the crowd is pumped for the PSW tag team main event match of the night.
Main Event
The Dark Stars vs Rent-A-Hero & Lucas Swann
Alejandro Martin: Ladies and gentlemen, our second match of the night is a Shooting Star cup first-round match, introducing first... Hailing from the Dark Side of the Stars, weighing at a combined weight of 450 pounds, they are the future of the wrestling business Niko and Kono, THE DARK STARS!!!
"Sixes and Sevens" by Annihilator plays and the tron shows spinning graphic images that turn into the Dark Stars, Niko and Kono, who appear with their valet/wives Terminatrix and Commandrix. They stalk their way to ringside through lasers shooting up in the air slowly with ominous looks of murder on their faces and eyes. Niko holds the ropes down to allow Terminatrix and Commadrix into the ring as Kono somersaults into the ring and jumps onto the top turnbuckle as Kono shoots his futuristic-looking lance up as Niko shoots his futuristic style dagger up and they both roar and bellow as Kono Backflips and lands in a fighting crouch as Niko sheathes his dagger and all four pose intimidating and remove their futuristic gladiator-style armor and go to their corner still glaring ominously at their opponents.
Terry Sanders: The Dark Stars fresh off a successful debut at Cosmic Collision.
David West: Oh, yeah they knocked off a great and talented team of "The Ganja Connection".
Terry Sanders: Tonight they face a debuting Rent-A-Hero and a more focused Lucas Swann coming off of a big-time loss at Cosmic Collision.
Alejandro Martin: ...And their opponent's for this tag-team match introducing first... Hailing from "Where Ever Crime Is", weighing in at 227, standing at 5'10". He is your local Rent-A-Hero!!!
As the opening chords of ‘My Hero’ plays, the crowd begins to cheer for their favorite superhero. ‘The Crimson Defender’ walks out of the back holding his wrench above his head for the crowd. He does some showboating as he walks to the ring, and stops before entering. He checks under the apron for any boobie traps or surprises, then slides in. He climbs one of the turnbuckles, and gives the crowd a show, flexing and posing until his opponent arrives.
Terry Sanders: This guy is borderline crazy by what I can gather, David.
David West: Yeah but he does a lot of good and the fans seem to like him for the most part.
Terry Sanders: Well tonight we will see.
Alejandro Martin: ...And his tag-team partner for this match introducing next... Hailing from Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada. Weighing in at 227 pounds and standing at 6-foot even. He is formerly known as AWF's Zakk Sawyer, he is Lucas Swann!!!
We hear “Hello World” hit as the lights go down and turn a deep shade of blue. Shortly after the intro to the song, we hear the chorus.
“Hello, World!"
I heard ya been lookin’ for me
I heard ya been waitin’ on me
Well I’m here and I’m here to stay
"Hello, World!"
Sometimes your love turns to ugly
Well, this world, it ain’t gotta love me
So it’s cool ‘cause I’ll be okay”
We then see Lucas Swann come out as the lights flash blue and yellow. He looks out at the crowd, who are divided. One half cheering for him, the other half booing him. He then looks straight at the ring and proceeds down to the ring, very methodically. When he reaches the ring, he climbs the ring apron, wiping his feet on the apron and stepping through the ropes. He then gets into his corner, removes his jacket and shades and awaits his for the bell.
Terry Sanders: It appears that Lucas Swann has a more serious and focused look about him tonight.
David West: I would say so after losing his Xcrown qualifying match he's a bit upset.
Terry Sanders: let's see if he can bounce back here tonight.
Referee Emilie Rose signals for the bell...
