We open up the show to the sounds of Sakura Goodbye By Scandal playing in the arena. We see a shot of the Nissan Stadium from the outside before we pan across the large crowd inside. We cut to the stage where we see the band Scandal playing the song Sakura Goodbye live on the stage. They jam out and finish playing the song in full before we cut to the commentators booth.
Yumiko Kanagawa: "(Welcome to SSS's Winter Festival 2019! You just heard Scandal play their hit song Sakura Goodbye for us to kick things off. We're in Nissan Stadium here in Yokohama and we're packed full with 75,000 fans!)"
Kayako Kai: "(That's amazing! and you know what else is amazing Kanagawa-san?)"
Yumiko Kanagawa: "(No what is it Kai-chan?)"
Kayako Kai: "(Our theme for tonight was used on our first show ever too! Pretty cool, huh?)"
Yumiko Kanagawa: "(It is pretty cool, but do you know what else is cool?)"
Kayako Kai: "(No what?)"
Yumiko Kanagawa: "(Well besides the weather outside, all of these amazing matches we have in store for the fans tonight!)"
Kayako Kai: "(That's right! We have a showcase of a hot up and coming promotion in America who's making waves around the network to start us off. That's right folks MCCW is going to have a match here tonight! We also have the hot up and coming tag team KUROKO in a match with SSS Original Rukia Matsuoka and the always dangerous Dixie Kixx.)"
Yumiko Kanagawa: "(We'll also see the SSS debut of James Edwards in a match against the always impressive Veronica Jones. There's the Pride of Sakura title being defended in a match between champ Idoru Pierrot and challenger Sabrina Faith as well. We're also gonna have one of many... unique matches in store for you when Ultra Kira, the last alien from planet ultra tries to seek revenge against the Demon Dreadvan in a rematch from last years winter festival. This time in the Milkyway Galaxy!)"
Kayako Kai: "(That's not all, after that we'll see a light tubes death match for the Idol of Sakura championship as Blake Belladonna looks to keep her title and continues to try to make history with her title reign as she goes against Momoko Honda in what's sure to be a classic! We're also seeing a battle royal for the SKS Jumpstart championship and an... an Anus Exploding Death Match between a man who we've seen on a few occasions, Kira Izumi and his bitter rival Greg Adkins. They look to end it all tonight!)"
Yumiko Kanagawa: "(We also have the SKS Heavyweight Championship on the line as Naoki Ojima takes on XHF Legeend Shiyen, up and comer Daisuke Tokugawa and Kenneth Casper. Also on the show tonight, an ultimate x match for the Angles of Sakura Championships as SKY Force looks to make their victory over the champs in the Sakura Tag League not a fluke. The Dosanko will try to keep their titles and continue to break records with their reign!)"
Kayako Kai: "(FEM and Sakura-Gun look to settle the score once and for all in their final match in SSS in a no holds barred, no dq match! These two groups have had bad blood since the very first match in sss history over 2 years ago! Nixie Caine is going to try to beat Hanako Takeuchi in what's sure to be one hell of a submission match. But one has to wonder if Hanako will be 100% or if her injury from After Dark earlier this month will play in her downfall tonight.)"
Yumiko Kanagawa: "(We're also set to have the first singles match against the world renowned and former IJWF Champion Emi Hirota as she faces the spooky and longest reigning champion in not only SSS history, but XHF history, Fukushima Zombie! And who can forget about the Sakura Tag League finals? 1 million dollars is on the line as well as the STL Trophy! The Fire Blood Clan is looking to beat Dodo-A-Gogo in this one. And in our main event? well we'll have Darlene Price take on a woman she's been terrorizing for a month, the Goddess of Sakura Champion, STRiFE in a cage match for the title! That's going to be a brutal match and one everyone should be looking forward too.)"
Kayako Kai: "(We'll also have more info on J-ROK, our soon to be new name after we merge with SKS in 2020. Look forward to that and look forward to so much more we have in store for you tonight at our biggest event of the year and the last event of the decade!)"

Match One: Standard MCCW Battle Royal Rules; No Time Limit
Leon Chant Vs. Eichi Yamaguchi Vs. Koch Knocher Vs. Kris Quake Vs. Jay Carter Vs. Nelly Angel Vs. Adam Marston Vs. Trickster
Leon Chant Vs. Eichi Yamaguchi Vs. Koch Knocher Vs. Kris Quake Vs. Jay Carter Vs. Nelly Angel Vs. Adam Marston Vs. Trickster
Yumiko Kanagawa: "(Enough hyping up the matches now, We'll send it off to the voice of MCCW, Alestier Mayfield now.)"
Kayako Kai: "(Thanks for sending it back to us Mayfield-san. Kanagawa-san what a great match! The guys of MCCW really brought it tonight!)"
Yumiko Kanagawa: "(I know right?! I hope this lights a fire under the SSS locker room to get shown up by those Americans! I still can't believe Marston-San won a match involving their North American, Apprentice, and World champions! This has got to be huge for him going forward and play big in their ppv on January 1st.)"

This has got to be huge for him going forward and play big in their ppv on January 1st.)"
We cut to the backstage area, right by the parking entrance to find a few members of the press gathered around the arrival of FEM. The two ladies march forward, heads down and doing their best to avoid questions, pictures or interviews.
“Bodhi! Bodhi! How do you feel about the claims that Sakura GUN are going to once more retire FEM tonight?”
“Boom-Boom, is it true you have been considering leaving professional wrestling?”
“Bodhi, it’s rumored that you and Hyperion have been secretly meeting up, care to share on these suspicions?”
“Boom-Boom, we are dying to know when you are going to make your breakaway from Bodhi’s shadow.”
“Bodhi, care to- “
Bodhi: Enough!
The loud outburst from the superstar is enough to hush the gathered press.
Bodhi: You people are vultures, sick-minded individuals that only care about your next biggest story. Every move we make in the wrong direction, you jump on it. I’m sick of constantly being put down, event though we seem to be the only ones fighting for equality and respect in this one-sided world.
The crowd starts yelling questions immediately, instantly infuriating the star.
Boom-Boom: Didn’t ya hear the lass, she isn’t keen on any of your questions! And neither am I frankly, you fuckers don’t know when to quit or back off.
Even more the crowd pushes forward, actually stopping the duo in their tracks. They try to press on but now find their way blocked. Surrounded and halted, the duo do not look too happy. That’s when-
*CRACK*
Bodhi snaps, and lashed out with her ‘Queens Call’, a buzzsaw kick to the head of a male reporter. He staggers, and just collapses as the ground gasps. With all eyes on the duo, the girls drop their gear bags and move forward for the attack, sending the press off running with screams of fear filling the air. We cut as the girls of FEM finally fight back…
Match Two: Standard SSS Tag Rules; 30 Minute Time Limit
KUROKO Vs. Rukia Matsuoka & Dixie Kixx
KUROKO Vs. Rukia Matsuoka & Dixie Kixx
Yumiko Kanagawa: “(We move on from that incredible match from our friends in the United States, MCCW, and get onto the first SSS match of the card. The duo of KUROKO is taking on the always dangerous Dixie Kixx and SSS Original Rukia Matsuoka in tag team action.)”
Kayako Kai: “(KUROKO has made waves since their debut last month and looks to keep momentum going. Dixie and Rukia are going to try and show everyone just what their made of and why they’ve been here so long.)”
Karin Wholfe: “(This match is a tag team match and is set for one fall! Introducing first in the blue corner, they are the team of KITSUNE and Kuro-Hana, KUROKO! And their opponents in the red corner, they are the team of Dixie Kixx and “The Supa Seiyu” Rukia Matsuoka!)”
The bell rings for the biggest match of these women’s careers. Dixie and Kuro-Hana start things off and lock up. Kuro gets in a headlock and gets Dixie down to the ground. She wrenches it in, but Kixx flips out of it and locks in a headscissors of her own. She reaches out her hand to tag in Rukia. She keeps in the headscissors locked in tight as Rukia grabs her legs and locks in the boston crab. She bridges back and locks in her version of the Ikari, Owari!
KITSUNE comes in and sends a boot to Matsuoka before anymore damage could be done. Rukia and Kuro start to lock up again, She’d irish whip Matsuoka into the ropes and hit her black tsunami jumping roundhouse strike on her! A pin attempt and not much out of it.
Kayako Kai: “(Lots of back and forth action in this one, the daughters of Aokigahara are making a come back after that Black Tsunami!)”
KITSUNE gets tagged in and works on the now tagged in Dixie. Both start trading strikes with each other before KITSUNE hits her half nelson suplex she calls the Fall from heaven. Kixx is back up and hits her with a codebreaker. KITSUNE gets bounces off the ropes and hits a devastating FoxTrot single leg dropkick, causing Kixx to do a full backflip onto her face. She tags in Hana and they finish things off with the KuroHono! Double buzzsaw kicks right to her head!
Karin Wholfe: “(Your winners of this match, KUROKO!)”
Kayako Kai: “(KUROKO has made waves since their debut last month and looks to keep momentum going. Dixie and Rukia are going to try and show everyone just what their made of and why they’ve been here so long.)”

Match Three: Standard SSS Rules; 30 Minute Time Limit
James Edwards Vs. Veronica Jones
James Edwards Vs. Veronica Jones
Yumiko Kanagawa: “(Veronica Jones is looking to comeback into SSS and make an impact with a huge win tonight. She hasn’t been on as much as others lately but she’s here tonight and that’s all that counts!)”
Kayako Kai: “(And we have James Edwards making his SSS debut tonight. He’s a former champion in some promotions in the United States, the UK and even some small time promotions here in Japan. He’s looking to make an impact here tonight and potentially sign a full time deal if things work out for him.)”
Karin Wholfe: “(This is a singles match set for one fall and is at a thirty minute time limit! Introducing first in the blue corner, standing in at 5’9 and weighing in at 207 pounds, from Lexington, Kentucky, USA he is “The Burning Heart” James Edwards! And his opponent in the red corner standing in at 5’6 and weighing in at 123 pounds she is from San Diego, California, USA… please welcome Veronica Jones!)”
Both start the match by circling each other in the ring. A low kick from Jones to the leg of Edwards starts the match off. He sends one in return as he closes in and tries to snatch her up for a suplex or slam of some kind. Jones grabs a second kick and trips him up, causing him to fall on his back. She tries to pin him early but it only gets a one count if that.
Both competitors quickly get back to their feet and the larger James starts popping off some vicious strikes on Jones. Jones trades some back with Edwards, which may be a good move or bad depending on how you look at it. Both work on striking and blocking the other for most of the match. Veronica would hit a patent missile dropkick after springboarding off the ropes.
Yumiko Kanagawa: “(What a missile dropkick from Jones! They’re really going at it now)”
Veronica starts to work the legs of Edwards before hitting another missile dropkick. She’s really going now and starts running the ropes, hitting more dropkicks and even a hurricarana. She continues keeping up the offense on James. Jones would climb up to the top and go for a moonsault but Edwards would catch her midway in the air. He’d hit her with a fishermans buster he calls the Foxfire. He’d run the ropes and hit her with all his force and power with his chop elbow to the back of her head. He calls this move the Violent Salvation! Before he could get to the cover the ref would stop the match and declare him the winner.
Karin Wholfe: “(Your winner of this match by Knock Out, James Edwards!)”
Kayako Kai: “(And we have James Edwards making his SSS debut tonight. He’s a former champion in some promotions in the United States, the UK and even some small time promotions here in Japan.

Match Four: Pride of Sakura Title Match; Pride Rules; 60 Minute Time Limit
Sabrina Faith Vs. Idoru Pierrot(C.)
Sabrina Faith Vs. Idoru Pierrot(C.)
Yumiko Kanagawa: “(Idoru Pierrot is looking to make a successful title defence and keep her first ever title she’s won in SSS. But she’s going against a tough opponent in Sabrina Fath tonight!)”
Kayako Kai: “(Both are out of their element with the Pride rules though, it’s going to be really interesting to see how they adapt to the shoot style in this one.)”
Karin Wholfe: “(This match is set under Pride Rules and can only be won via Knockout, Technical Knockout, Submission, Referee Stoppage, or by a second throwing in the towel. This match is set for 60 minutes and each fighter has three rope breaks for this match up.)”
The lights go out in the arena as "Firework" By Katy Perry starts to play, white rose petals start to fall from the ceiling throughout the arena as "The Crystal Rose" Sabrina Faith walks out onto the ramp. She squats down as she pats the ramp and jumps back up and runs straight down sliding into the ring. She quickly climbs the closes ring post and holds her arms out into the shape of an X as she jumps back down and waits for the match to begin.
Karin Wholfe: “(Introducing first in the blue corner, the challenger! Standing at 6’2 and weighing in at 138 pounds from Limerick, Ireland she is “The Crystal Rose” Sabrina Faith!)”
Idoru comes out from the back to the cheers of the fans. She raises her title in the air before making her way down to the ring. She gets in and waits for the match to begin.
Karin Wholfe: “(And introducing next in the red corner standing in at 5’2 and weighing in at 127 pounds she is the REIGNING DEFENDING Pride of Sakura Champion… Idoru Pierrot!)”
The bell rings and both women square up, circling each other. Faith makes the first move and goes for a clench, but gets caught with a punch to the face. Idoru backs up and makes some space. Faith uses her long legs to catch her with a kick to the leg. She goes for another but is caught by Pierrot. She trips Sabrina up and they go to a grounded position.
Idoru starts working on the body of Faith who tries to get free and get back to a standing position. Pierrot keeps at it though and manages to get in an armbar. Sabrina uses her height to help her and gets a foot firmly on the ropes. That’s one rope break used for Faith and two more left as the submission is broken and both women are back to a standing position in their respective corners.
Yumiko Kanagawa: “(What a match so far! Both ladies are pretty even.)”
Both ladies meet in the middle again Sabrina gets Idoru in the clutch and starts hitting her with knees. Pierrot tries to block some and get some licks in of her own. She breaks free and hits her with a left right combo before backing away. They circle each other again before Faith tries to get in the clutch one more time. She lifts Pierrot up and slams her down onto the ground hard. She gets some punches in the mount before Idoru catches her with another submission. Sabrina gets to the ropes for the second time now.
They stand back up before going at it again. Idoru charges her and hits a dropkick. Faith bounces off the ropes and comes back with a yakuza styled kick of her own. She gets on top of Pierrot and hits her with multiple punches, going for the TKO. Idoru works the body and gets in a grounded abdominal stretch like submission move. Again Faith uses her final rope break.
They continue working each other with strikes and trying to get into position for something big.They’d get on the ground again. Faith would lock in an armbar, Idoru would break free and continue working the body before locking in the grounded octopus stretch she calls the Idoru Stretch. Not able to break free or use the ropes Faith taps out to the pain.
Karin Wholfe: “(Your winner of this match and STILL Pride of Sakura Champion… Idoru Pierrot!)”
Kayako Kai: “(Both are out of their element with the Pride rules though, it’s going to be really interesting to see how they adapt to the shoot style in this one.)”

We open a video package with a white screen. Then it revealed to be an aerial shot as the sea of the crowd appears from the bottom of the screen. They're all wearing white hoodies, covering their hair and heads and they seem to be walking in one direction. The camera shifts to a couple of angles except their faces but they're still walking in a straight line.
Amongst those vast amounts of crowds, the camera found someone who seems to be shaking their heads, feeling uncomfortable about everything that surrounds her. This person seems to grow their feelings of getting uncomfortable as they keep shaking their heads and sometimes yanking their white hoodies.
???: AAAARRRGGGHHHH!!!!!
This person, who screaming a high-pitched voice that indicates she's a woman slowly transforming from originally wearing an all-white uniform to all black with the hooded jacket who seems covering her hair and face. Her scream makes all these white-hooded figures stop their steps. From the sudden stop, they quickly turn their bodies and surrounding the only person who wears black clothes and it revealed that these figures are just a bunch of faceless mannequins. The music stops as all these figures slowly taking the step back as the music goes for a more suspenseful vibe. After they take a really spacious distance, these mannequins quickly move one of their hands and pointing at the black hooded figure, leaving her taking a quick turn around in fear and confusion. The camera transitions to a couple of angles at a fast pace, showing the mannequins and the black hooded figure from behind as the scene cuts to black. The footage ends with another scream. Different from the frustrated scream, this time seems to be a sign of her fear.

Match Five: Super Galactic Milkyway Death Match; 60 Minute Time Limit
Ultra Kira Vs. Dreadvan
Ultra Kira Vs. Dreadvan
Yumiko Kanagawa: “(Now folks this one is going to be very… unique. Very different. This is going to be a Super Galactic Milkyway Deathmatch. Now in this match both competitors are going to be competing in the Milkyway galaxy.)”
Kayako Kai: “(In this match both wrestlers may use the planets and asteroids as weapons. And within those planets and asteroids there will be weapons inside them. This match isn’t for the faint of heart, you have been warned.)”
Karin Wholfe: “(This match is a Super Galactic Milkyway Deathmatch and is set for one fall under a 60 minute time limit. Now the only way to win this match is by KO, Pinfall or Submission. All Weapons found within the Planets are legal.)”
The music plays and instantly everyone in the arena the fans scream so hard they spit up blood after a few seconds. Eventually, Dreadvan's large frame makes it's way through the curtain. He does his best to antagonize the fans, but they scream harder still for the Dreadvan. He makes his way slowly towards the ring, his size makes it a long, drawn out process, but he makes it and waits.
Karin Wholfe: “(Introducing first in the blue corner, representing The Cure, standing in at 7’2 and weighing in at 550 pounds from Blackfish, South Dakota, USA he is The Demon Dreadvan!)”
Audience Killer Loop plays as the Alien being known as Ultra Kira makes his way down to the Milkyway Galaxy. He gets in with rage in his eyes.
Karin Wholfe: “(And his opponent in the red corner, he stands at 6’0 tall and weighs in at 200 pounds, from Planet Ultra he is The Greatest Warrior from Planet Ultra Ultra Kira!)”
Both men or… beings stare each other down. Ultra Kira wanting to like always kill. Dreadvan probably thinking Ultra Kira is a piece of chicken wrapped in tinfoil. He thinks about food a lot. Ultra is the first to do anything. He charges and goes for a dropkick. He bounces off the belly of the demon and crashes, i mean floats into the black abyss known as the milky way galaxy. Dreadvan still stays there, probably thinking about food still. Who knows really. Ultra picks up the useless planet known as Pluto and chucks it at Dreadvan, who still stares forward. He yawns and consumes Pluto.
He spits up an ice pick and stares at it. He picks it up and walks towards Kira now, stabbing him with it! He begins to bleed red blood. Dreadvan goes for a cover and by goes for a cover i mean he trips on a piece of Pluto and sits on Ultra Kira. The strength of the last alien warrior must be intense because he kicks out at two and gets right back up to his feet.
Dreadvan gets up to his feet again and grabs another planet. This time Uranus. He shakes it a bit and then cracks it open on Ultra Kira’s head to see what’s inside. Inside is a plunger, Dreadvan picks it up and starts beating the shit out of Kira. Kira starts getting shots into Dradvan’s large stomach. Dreadvan takes a few steps back and bounces off the rop- i mean the sheer force of space and goes for a speed walking lariat.
Ultra grabs his arm and transitions it into an Ultra~Special innovated fujiwara armbar. He has it locked in but the big man rolls out and starts stomping the hell out of Kira’s head like he’s trying to kill a scary spider! He lets go of the armbar and the demon picks up another planet. Not sure what this one is though, it’s not from our solar system. Anyways it’s cracked open like an egg and out comes a chair.
Dreadvan grabs it and starts beating Ultra Kira like he’s trying to make some ground beef this time. Ultra blocks a strike and punches him where his privates should be. He gets his arm stuck in Dreadvan’s fat rolls and starts to panic; He reaches for something, anything he can to break free from the grasp of the demon. Dreadvan picks him up by his head and slams him down. He does it once more. The alien warrior is starting to look beat, with a glaze in his yellow eyes.
Kayako Kai: “(This match is starting to take a serious turn! It looks like these two really are going to kill each other!)”
Dreadvan hits his impaler ddt he calls the demons pit right on kira on top of the asteroids scattered about. He goes for a pin attempt. A two count again but not much more after a kick out somehow. Both get back up and start fighting again. Fists and kicks and other strikes. More weapons used and even an attempted powerslam on Dreadvan.
He doesn’t get lifted too much and clobbers Ultra on his back, knocking him back down. He grabs the rings of saturn and begins choking Kira with them in some modified camel clutch like move. Ultra grabs them and starts hitting Dreadvan with them after a moment. Both get back to their feet again now. Dreadvan grabs Saturn and busts it across Ultra’s skull before he hits a standing guardrailer, his phoenix splash.
ONE!
TWO!
Yumiko Kanagawa: “(No a kick out! Some how a kick out! Wait! Wait what’s Dreadvan doing? He’s… he’s sniffing the air.)”
Kayako Kai: “(He’s… oh my god he’s eating the outer space! He’s eating the planets and everything!)”
Dreadvan continues sniffing the air, he looks down below his feet and sees squishy, soft, chocolate beneath his feet. I mean it’s not chocolate it’s totally space. Yep, totally space! Anyways he begins grabbing hand fulls of the stuff and shoves it down his gullet. Just more and more goes into the black abyss known as Dreadvan’s stomach. Almost nothing can stop him once he gets going and almost nothing satisfies the hunger from the demon.
Ultra Kira seeing his chance begins trying to take long range attacks at Dreadvan. And by that i mean he starts throwing whatever planets and weapons laying about he can find at Dreadvan. But it’s of no use, he just eats and eats. He keeps eating and within seconds the chocolaty space and delicious Milky Way bars, i mean galaxy, are all gone. He looks around and sniffs the air some more.
The Demon snatches a helpless photographer and lifts him into the ring. We see Dreadvan eat him whole and then snatch up the camera man in the ring. We see the large mouth of dreadvan open wide almost like a scene from attack on titans. Soon we see his teeth and inside his mouth. Even sooner nothing but black before we change camera angles.
Kira beginning to panic and worry the match will get called off begins to get into his super ultra pose and charge up his ultimate technique. He places his arms in a t like position before screaming loudly. His eyes begin to glow before a large ray emits from his arms and hits dreadvan right in the face with his スペシウム光線(Supeshiumu Kousen) technique! It hits him directly and the Demon begins to shake and convulse as if he’s having a seizure. Ultra Kira jumps on him for the pin attempt in the middle of the nothingness and…
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
Karin Wholfe: “(Your winner of this match… Ultra Kira!)”
Kayako Kai: “(In this match both wrestlers may use the planets and asteroids as weapons. And within those planets and asteroids there will be weapons inside them. This match isn’t for the faint of heart, you have been warned.)”
Karin Wholfe: “(This match is a Super Galactic Milkyway Deathmatch and is set for one fall under a 60 minute time limit. Now the only way to win this match is by KO, Pinfall or Submission. All Weapons found within the Planets are legal.)”
The music plays and instantly everyone in the arena the fans scream so hard they spit up blood after a few seconds. Eventually, Dreadvan's large frame makes it's way through the curtain. He does his best to antagonize the fans, but they scream harder still for the Dreadvan. He makes his way slowly towards the ring, his size makes it a long, drawn out process, but he makes it and waits.

Nelly Angel Vs. Randy Angel Vs. Brandon North Vs. Caden Yung Vs. Fabiano Fiddleiano Vs. Joel Dante(C.)
Nelly Angel Vs. Randy Angel Vs. Brandon North Vs. Caden Yung Vs. Fabiano Fiddleiano Vs. Joel Dante(C.)
Yumiko Kanagawa: “(As you all heard about a week ago, one of the competitors that was scheduled for this match passed away last sunday. Fabiano Fiddliano died of a drug overdose in his hotel room. We at SSS offer our condolences to his family, friends and fans.)”
Kayako Kai: “(We decided to continue on with this match, but we are dedicating this match in his memory. Before we begin please join us in a moment of silence and a 10 bell salute to Fabiano.)”
The lights go out as a slideshow and video package of Fabiano plays over the screen. We can see many fans of his crying in the stands and even some wrestlers getting emotional. The 10 bells go off and the men scheduled for this match get into the ring.
Karin Wholfe: “(This is an over the top rope battle royal and is for the SKS Jumpstart Championship! The competitors in this match are Randy Angel, Nelly Angel, Brandon North, and the Champion, Joel Dante!)”
The match starts with everyone in the ring. The bell rings and everyone starts fighting one another. The Angel brothers work together for the most part by this time. Brandon North gets worked on by the champ.
North gets hit with the valley of the fallen early on by Dante and gets hit so hard he pops over the ropes and out of the ring.
Karin Wholfe: “(Brandon North had been eliminated.)”
Dante starts fighting with the brothers, going back and forth with them. Dante hits a nasty suplex on Randy and we can see the tolls from the first match on Nelly already. Showing signs of wear and tear. He fights back and forth with Joel.
Leaving us with the Angel brothers left to fight each other. Both stand there squaring up with each other. Not too long before they can do anything. Dante dropkicks both brothers and knocking them onto the apron. He charges dos angels and dante lands on the apron with the brothers.
They all get back into the ring and start fighting some more Randy goes charges Dante and eats a Triple 6, a nice tribute to the late Fiddliano there, which in turn makes Randy kick Nelly in the face too. Dante goes after Nelly again and the two trade strikes with each other. Nelly kicks him in the shin which makes him fall to his feet. Nelly hits him with a Shining Wizard before picking him up and yelling at his brother to help him with him.
Randy comes over and they go for their tag team finisher Super Xtreme Edge, but Joel breaks free and hits them both with a double lariat after getting back to his feet and running the ropes. He lifts up Nelly and throws him into the ropes, on the comeback he attempts to drive his knee into Nelly’s face, but Nelly turns some more and turns it into an Exclusive, his take on the sliced bread. He tries to lift Joel but struggles. He tells his brother to help him and they hit their double crucifix bomb they call the Super Xtreme Edge on Dante, making him land hard onto the outside.
Karin Wholfe: “(Joel Dante has been eliminated.)”
Yumiko Kanagawa: “(With Dante gone it leaves Dos Angeles! To fight each other!?!?)”
Kayako Kai: “(This is indeed the first time in forever, if not ever that these two have faced each other!)”
Both stand face to face, looking around and finally noticing they’re the only two left in the match. Both men square up, shaking their heads that they don’t want to fight. They hug it out and before long Randy throws Nelly over the ropes and out of the ring! He yells he’s sorry to his brother as the bell rings.
Karin Wholfe: “(Your winner of this match and NEW SKS Jumpstart Champion… Randy Angel!)”
Randy celebrates in the ring with his newly won title and with the fans.

Match Seven: Idols of Sakura Title Match; 100 Lightubes Deathmatch; 60 Minute Time Limit
Momoko Honda Vs. Blake Belladonna(C.)
Momoko Honda Vs. Blake Belladonna(C.)
Yumiko Kanagawa: “(We’re about to get hardcore in this next match folks. With the Idols of Sakura Championship on the line, Blake Belladonna is looking to keep her reign going strong. But she’s got a dangerous opponent in Momoko Honda, who’s looking to win her second ever title in SSS tonight.)”
Kayako Kai: “(You have to wonder though, how much will the light tubes play part in the deciding factor of this match? This is gonna be one not for the faint of heart though, we can tell you that!)”
As Rising Hope gears up, Momoko makes her way to the stage. She rises a single finger up in the air, feeling the crowds cheer rain down on her. She finally makes her way to the ring, greeting the fans as she makes her way down the ramp. Momoko climbs on the apron, she makes her way to the top rope and looks down at the fans. Before she finally raises another finger in the air. After some seconds Momoko, jumps down and makes her way to the middle of the ring, displaying a striking pose. Momo-chan goes tot the nearest corner and awaits for the official to start the match.
Karin Wholfe: “(This match is a light tubes deathmatch and is set for one fall with a 60 minute time limit. Introducing first in the blue corner, she is the challenger. Standing in at 5’1 and weighing in at 114 pounds coming from Kyoto, Japan she is “The Star Warrior” Momoko Honda!)”
The champion comes out with her belt around her waist. She’s wearing extra clothing than usual due to the light tubes. She makes her way down the long rampway and gets into the ring.
Karin Wholfe: “(And in the red corner standing in at 5’8 and weighing in at 130 pounds, coming to us from Lewes, Delaware, USA! She is the REIGNING DEFENDING Idol of Sakura Champion… Blake Belladonna!)”
Both women’s names can be heard being cheered by their respective fans throughout the stadium as the bell rings and the match begins. They circle around taking a cautious approach as to not get hurt by the hanging light tubes all around the ring. They lock up and start working on headlocks and other holds on one another.
Blake uses her height and power to her advantage and throws Momoko towards the ropes, Momoko stops herself before she hits the light tubes and locks back up in the middle of the ring. Momoko gets out of a headlock and transitions to a waist lock. She lifts up Blake and slams her down with a face buster slam. She locks in a grounded headlock on Belladonna to keep pressure.
Blake uses her arm to lock in a choke onto Honda and gets back to her feet. She turns Honda around and hits a tornado ddt on her. She picks her back up and throws her into some light tubes. Honda’s back hits the tubes and glass begins to dig in as they break. The smoke from the tubes gets in her eyes and mouth as it evaporates in the air. She falls to her hands and knees for a brief moment before she’s picked back up and slammed to the mat once more. A pin attempt from Belladonna…
ONE!
TW-
No just a one count from it. Belladonna gets her back up and tries to irish whip her into the light tubes again, Honda counters it and throws her into the ropes instead. Blake stops just before though. Momoko drop kicks her into the tubes face first and goes for a pin of her own, it gets a one count from it and both get back up to their feet. Glass embedded into both and both ladies bleeding it’s already a mess.
Momoko charges her and hits her with a shining wizard she calls the Tsunami Strike. Momoko goes up to the top rope, but takes too much time and is met with a few light tubes thrown at her. She falls down and gets stomped by Belladonna. Honda gets back up to her feet after she rolls out of the way of a cannonball attempt from Blake. She rushes to the corner to come back and hit a hesitation dropkick on her.
Both are back up to their feet and get into a strike contest. Lefts and rights. Momoko gets off a nice kicking combo ending it with a round house, she calls the Dance of Many Stars. It’s not too long before she goes to the top, looking to end it here.
Yumiko Kanagawa: “(It looks like Honda is looking for Happy Landing!)”
Kayako Kai: “(OH NO! She’s caught by Blake!)”
Blake indeed does catch her and lifts her up and hits her military press spinebuster right onto some light tubes! She goes for another pin and gets a solid two for her troubles. Getting back up she goes for a german suplex with a bridge. Only a two again. She whips Honda into the ropes and goes for her pop up gory bomb.
Momoko rolls through and reverses it into a pin attempt of her own, she gets a two count on it and rushes the ropes, bouncing back as Blake in on a knee she hits her with another Tsunami Strike. She throws whatever light tubes are left onto Blake and climbs the ropes. She leaps off looking to driver her elbow deep into the champ.
Yumiko Kanagawa: “(Happy Landing again!)”
Kayako Kai: "(She hits it! and now the pin!)"
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
Both ladies lay in a pile of light tube glass, dust and their own blood as the bell rings.
Karin Wholfe: “(Your winner of the match and NEW Idol of Sakura Champion… Momoko Honda)”
The COO, CEO and GM all come out as tradition in SSS when a title changes hands. COO Kiyomi Yamashita gives her a check and shakes her hand while CEO Emi Sakata gives them a bouquet of flowers and shakes her hand.

It's raining in the dark forest. The moon light barely shinning from the clouds. The pitter patter of the rain is all we hear for a moment. That is before we hear the screams of someone. they don't last long, just mere seconds before it becomes silent again. We see the figures of trees swaying too and fro before we see a lonesome figure emerge from the woods. Only a silhouette, but whatever or whoever it is feels familiar.
The slender figure limps closer, it wipes something on it's mouth, as we see a red smile on it's face under long dark hair. She turns towards a tree and writes out something in some red substance before heading off into the woods again.
"Soon"
We see this quickly before the scene fades.

Match Eight: Exploding Anus Deathmatch; 60 Minute Time Limit
Kira Izumi Vs. Greg Adkins
Kira Izumi Vs. Greg Adkins
Yumiko Kanagawa: “(This next match may get us reported for breaking rule 18, but don’t worry fans we’ll cut away if it gets too dirty.)”
Kayako Kai: “(That’s right, because this is an… and Anus Exploding death match! A match agreed upon by these two men to settle their score and rivalry once and for all! This is a match so dangerous and deadly that even the AWF wouldn’t take it! Even Destiny Wrestling wouldn’t take it! It’s gonna be that crazy!)”
We pan across the arena to see fans waiting in anticipation for this one.
Karin Wholfe: “(This match is set for one fall at a 60 minute time limit and may be won only when you light a firework from your opponents butt. Introducing first in the blue corner standing in at 6’2 and weighing in at 165 pounds coming to us from Tuscola, Illinois, USA.... he is representing Ascension Wrestling Federation, he is “Guttertrash” Greg Adkins!)”
We see a shot of the ring now, full of fire crackers, and other fireworks as well as lighters and matches all in and around the ring.
Karin Wholfe: “(Introducing his opponent in the red corner standing in at 6’0 and weighing in at 200 pounds coming to us from Shinhidaka, Hokkaido, Japan and representing Destiny Wrestling, he is “Liberated” Kira Izumi)”
No time wasted from either man as they both have faced many times before in the AWF in America. Kira and Greg start it off hot and heavy with stiff strikes in the middle of the ring. Greg gets a good one knocking down Izumi. He picks him up and slams him down again. Kira catches Adkins with a take down and starts laying in some mounted punches on him.
Adkins catches a punch and transitions it into a kimura lock. Kira rolls out and both get back up to a standing position. They circle each other before locking up. Greg gets behind him and starts gyrating his hips in a thrusting motion. Izumi tries to break free from it, Adkins keeps hold and hits a german suplex on him. He rolls over and goes for another. One more time but Izumi lands on his feet on the last one. He runs the ropes and hits a high angled drop kick on him, sending him to the corner.
Kira is the first to get some fireworks and picks up a bottle rocket. He aims it at Greg and shoots it right in between his legs. Adkins winces in pain as he starts rolling around the ring. He rolls out, but doesn’t get too much breathing time as Izumi would dive out with a no handed asai moonsault to the outside. Greg would catch him though and send him flying into the japanese crowd.
Yumiko Kanagawa: “(We’ve seen just how much these guys want to end one another in this one, but what’s left to come?!?)”
Greg gets back into the ring before grabbing some fireworks of his own. He gets a hand full of poppers and starts throwing them at Izumi. He grabs some firecrackers too and shoves em down the front of his pants after lighting them on fire. They go off and Izumi goes down. For the first time someone tries to end the match as Greg pants’ Kira and trips him up. He pulls down his tighty whities and tries to shove some firecrackers in between his backside mountains. They’re clinched too tight and Izumi pulls his draws back up before rolling over and spraying blood mist into the eyes of Greg Adkins. He kicks him in the balls for good measure before getting back up.
Kira grabs a handful of firecrackers and shoves em into the mouth of Greg after lighting them on fire. He holds his mouth closed with one hand as he locks in a sleeper with the other. They go off and he begins to scream. He kicks Izumi in between the legs before he grabs a handful of his grapefruit and hits him with a dead lift ballsplex.
After getting back to his feet Izumi brawls some more with Adkins, Both men giving it their all and really working things over. Izumi catches him with a leg sweep before he pulls his draws down and tries to stick some fireworks up where the sun don’t shine. He gets it in the there after some hard work and lube, but before it goes off Adkins takes it out and shoves it into Kira’s mouth. It goes off and he goes down.
Greg tries to irish whip Izumi, Izumi reverses it and whips Adkins into the corner, he charges him but gets tripped face first into the turnbuckle. Greg pulls out some fuzzy handcuffs from is pants and puts them on Kira, locking him up to the pole. Greg pulls his pants down and shoves a handful of fireworks between his buns before lighting them on fire. They go off and he wins! Greg celebrates like a twelve year old on call of duty, no not by screaming the n word, but by teabagging his downed opponent.
Karin Wholfe: “(Your winner of this match… Greg Adkins!)”
Kayako Kai: “(That’s right, because this is an… and Anus Exploding death match! A match agreed upon by these two men to settle their score and rivalry once and for all! This is a match so dangerous and deadly that even the AWF wouldn’t take it! Even Destiny Wrestling wouldn’t take it! It’s gonna be that crazy!)”
We pan across the arena to see fans waiting in anticipation for this one.
Karin Wholfe: “(This match is set for one fall at a 60 minute time limit and may be won only when you light a firework from your opponents butt. Introducing first in the blue corner standing in at 6’2 and weighing in at 165 pounds coming to us from Tuscola, Illinois, USA.... he is representing Ascension Wrestling Federation, he is “Guttertrash” Greg Adkins!)”
We see a shot of the ring now, full of fire crackers, and other fireworks as well as lighters and matches all in and around the ring.
Karin Wholfe: “(Introducing his opponent in the red corner standing in at 6’0 and weighing in at 200 pounds coming to us from Shinhidaka, Hokkaido, Japan and representing Destiny Wrestling, he is “Liberated” Kira Izumi)”
No time wasted from either man as they both have faced many times before in the AWF in America. Kira and Greg start it off hot and heavy with stiff strikes in the middle of the ring. Greg gets a good one knocking down Izumi. He picks him up and slams him down again. Kira catches Adkins with a take down and starts laying in some mounted punches on him.
Adkins catches a punch and transitions it into a kimura lock. Kira rolls out and both get back up to a standing position. They circle each other before locking up. Greg gets behind him and starts gyrating his hips in a thrusting motion. Izumi tries to break free from it, Adkins keeps hold and hits a german suplex on him. He rolls over and goes for another. One more time but Izumi lands on his feet on the last one. He runs the ropes and hits a high angled drop kick on him, sending him to the corner.

Match Eight: SKS Heavyweight Title Match; Standard SKS Rules; 60 Minute Time Limit
Daisuke Togugawa Vs. Shiyen Vs. Kenneth Casper Vs. Naoki Ojima(C.)
Daisuke Togugawa Vs. Shiyen Vs. Kenneth Casper Vs. Naoki Ojima(C.)
Yumiko Kanagawa: “(A fatal four way match is up next. It’s going to be for the SKS Heavyweight Championship as we see the top four men in SKS battle for their number one prize.)”
Kayako Kai: “(This is sure to be one hell of a match! All four men are pretty familiar with each other.)”
Karin Wholfe: “(This match is set for one fall at a 60 minute time limit and is for the SKS Heavyweight Championship!)”
The lights go out in the arena and then the intro for Boy Hits Car's "The Rebirth" play's over the P.A. system. As the guitars kick in a red hue takes over the arena. A light shines down on the center of the ramp and there is Shiyen on both knee's as if he's praying, he then makes the motion of seppuku across his stomach up to his chest and pounds his heart and hops to his feet as the house lights come back and up He flips the traditional Japanese robe off his shoulders to show his fighting gear."Oh oh Here comes the rebirth" he makes his way down to the ring ready to fight.
Karin Wholfe: “(Introducing first, standing in at 5’10 and weighing in at 195 pounds from Cleavland, Ohio, USA he is Shiyen!)”
"Bulletproof" by Godsmack begins to play on the speakers and upon the drums portion entering the fray, Daisuke steps out onto the stage with a calm demeanor but also determined eyes. He rolls his neck a few times before making his way down the ramp, cracking his knuckles before rolling into the ring. Getting back up onto his feet, he faces the crowd, raising his arms to about roughly chest level before pressing a fist against an open palm and gives a slight bow. Retreating to his corner, he begins rolling his shoulders, continuing to loosen up for the match.
Karin Wholfe: “(And his opponent standing in at 5’11 and weighing in at 220 pounds, from Kitamoto, Saitama, Japan Daisuke Tokugawa!)”
Casper slowly and methodically walks down the ramp holding a lead pipe in his right hand. You can slightly hear the click clacking of the Implement as it is dragged across the barricade separating the fans from the performers. As he rounds the corner at the end a cameraman shoves a camera in Casper's face only to be threatened with the aforementioned lead pipe. Casper precedes to walk up the steel steps and stands on the ring apron and points the pipe at the audience. He enters the ring and takes a mighty swing with the weapon at his opponent stopping just inches before connecting with their Temple.
Karin Wholfe: “(And their opponent standing in at 6’2 and weighing in at 227 pounds from Baltimore, Maryland, USA “Cold-Hearted” Kenneth Casper!)”
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.
Karin Wholfe: “(And their opponent standing in at 6’0 and weighing in at 218 pounds coming from Tokyo, Japan he is the REIGNING DEFENDING SKS Heavyweight Champion! Naoki Ojima!)”
All four men stare each other down as the bell rings and we’re off. They all lock up in the middle of the ring, locking hands and having a massive test of power. The bigger Casper wins it and goes to headlock Ojima. Shiyen headlocks Casper and Tokugawa headlocks him. They get into a human centipede of headlocks, Daisuke wrenches it on Shiyen and causes a chain reaction all the way down to Ojima. Ojima eventually makes his way to the ropes and the referee breaks everyone up.
Naoki and Shiyen start to fight while Kenneth and Tokugawa fight on the other side of the ring. We can see Casper powerslam Daisuke and Shiyen and Naoki have a contest of strikes. Daisuke would hit an irish whipped Ojima with his power of the ancients sit out spine buster. Shiyen would hit a Yakuza kick on Tokugawa, sending him out of the ring.
Casper would land his Heart Cracker elbow to the heart of Shiyen. Before he could go for the cover Ojima would hit him with the STOMP! A double foot stomp right into his chest! Ojima would cover Shiyen, but it’d be broken by Tokugawa who’d come back into the ring. The vetren Daisuke would give the champ a helping hand of knuckle sandwiches, sending him flying back into the corner. He’d dodge a charging Shiyen and he’d hit Ojima with a super kick in the corner.
Tokugawa would hit a death roll outta nowhere like a certain viper in connecticut. He’d dodge a lariat from Kenneth and send him up and over the ropes onto the apron. He’d try to throw a punch at him, but get caught. Casper would lift him over the ropes and hit a suplex off the apron onto the outside. Meanwhile in the ring Shiyen and Ojima are back at it.
Yumiko Kanagawa: “(This has been a chaotic match so far, all four men giving it their all in this one!)”
Ojima Tries to German Suplex Shiyen, Tokugawa gets behind him and creates a german suplex chain. Casper gets behind him and german suplexes all three men. He picks up Shiyen and drops him with a tornado DDT. Tokugawa gets him with a Saito Suplex.
He picks him back up and hits Casper with a Kamikaze Driver, a spinning tombstone. Casper rolls out of the ring and before he can do anything Shiyen hits him with a Ronin Stomp, a double foot stomp from the top rope. Ojima hits a STOMP! Onto Shiyen and has him roll out of the ring before picking up Tokugawa. He hits a tiger suplex and rolls into a cattle mutilation. He calls the move Love and Honor and with this Tokugawa taps out, giving Ojima the win.
Karin Wholfe: “(Your winner of this match and STILL SKS Heavyweight Champion… Naoki Ojima!)”

Match Nine: Angles of Sakura Title Match; Ultimate X Match; 60 Minute Time Limit
SKY Force Vs. The Dosanko(C.)
SKY Force Vs. The Dosanko(C.)
Yumiko Kanagawa: “(It’s almost time for the Angels of Sakura Title match. But before we get that started lets give you the rundown on how this match even came to be. SKY Force got a shocking victory over the champions in the Sakura Tag League Tournament. Beating them clean gave them this match.)”
Kayako Kai: “(Now they’re set to face off in an Ultimate X Match! Can the champions keep their history making reign alive? Or will SKY Force prove everyone it wasn’t just a fluke?)”
Karin Wholfe: “(This match is an Ultimate X Match and is at a 60 minute time limit! The only way to win this match is to climb across the ropes above the ring and unlatch the titles from the center. The team holding the titles after that will be declared the winner of this match and Angels of Sakura!)”

With those words "Tsuki to Hanataba" plays its way into the arena. Shortly afterwards Nausicaä, holding a stuffed cat she calls Charles in her hands, appears upon the stage with Rin Kubo on her left and Shizuku on her right. Suzuki move both of Charles' upper paws out for the two brunettes fist bump each paw before the three begin to head down the ramp way.
Karin Wholfe: “(Introducing first in the blue corner, the team of Nausicaa Suzuki and Rin Kubo, they are SKY Force!)”
When their names are announced the three are sitting on the apron facing the hard camera before back rolling over the bottom rope and into the ring in union. They stop their rolls in a way that ends with Shizuku on her left knee, Rin on her right knee and Nausicaä sitting in the middle, holding Charles close as her SKY Force comrade rest their arms across her back. Together the three stand up, approach the ropes and stand on the bottom rope. Kubo having her right fist out towards the crowd and her left on her right breast, Yamamoto mirroring her and Suzuki holding Charles out towards the crowd.
"猿は木から何処へ落ちる" by Hello Sleepwalkers starts to play up with Fujiko and Sakura Kid coming out a loud ovation from the crowd. Sakura Kid gives an extra bounce in her step, making her way down the ramp first with Fujiko tailing behind her as the two exchange fives with fans in the aisle. Reaching the ring, Sakura Kid slides into the ring, Fujiko rolling in right after her as Kid scales the near set of turnbuckles, raising two pumped arms into the air while Fujiko simply walks over to the ropes with her arms spread out wide to more cheers from the crowd. Moving to the opposite corner, Fujiko starts conversing with Sakura Kid on how to approach their opponents for tonight.
Karin Wholfe: “(And their opponents in the red corner, they are the team of Sakura Kid and Fujiko Matsumoto, They are the REIGNING DEFENDING Angles of Sakura… The Dosanko!)”
The titles are already high above the center of the ring hooked around the two ropes above that form the X shape and the ultimate x that gives the match its name. As the case there is no real tags in this match and it’s a free for all to see who can get to the belts first. With the ring of the bell all four women go after the opposing team and this match is officially underway!
Suzuki goes right for Matsumoto and Kubo starts clobbering Kid. Kid and Kubo spill outside the ring early on and they brawl on the outside. The two more experienced members stay in the ring and throw lefts and rights at each other. Fujiko manages to suplex Suzuki, she gets back to her feet and eats an armdrag, back up again and eats a Freezing Wind russian leg sweep.
Meanwhile on the outside Rin is taking it to Kid as we see her pick up the small Sakura and yeet her about 4 rows deep into the crowd. She slides into the ring and starts clobbering Matsumoto. She kicks her in the gut and hits her with a stunner! She calls that move the Rin Factor. She starts climbing up to the top ropes and starts climbing across the ropes now.
Hanging above the ring now, she inches forward slowly. It’s not too long before we see Sakura Kid back up and in the ring, she rushes up from the other side and both women meet in the middle. They start kicking each other anywhere they can and both eventually fall from hanging on the ropes.
Kayako Kai: “(That’s gotta hurt! But these ladies have to fight through the pain if they want a chance to win!)”
Suzuki and Fujiko can be seen fighting again now, This time Nausicaa getting the upper hand. She catches Fujiko with a Dream Crusher running big boot. She goes up to the top and starts to climb across again. She falls down though as her grip gives.
She starts beating on Sakura some as Rin takes on Matsumoto. The Dosanko get a comeback going as they hit a Dangerous Rush superkick/knee strike combo on both opponents. Fujiko and Kid climb up to the top and attempt to get their titles back.
They get pulled down by SKY Force and Fujiko gets hit with a Bedlam powerbomb/suplex combo. Nausicaa gets on top of Rin’s shoulders almost like a game of chicken. They walk to the center of the Rin where the tag titles are, but stop and look up as they see something.
Yumiko Kanagawa: “(Oh my god! Sakura Kid is running on top of the ropes!)”
Kid dives from the ropes making the “X” and hits a super poisonrana onto Suzuki, who in turn does one to Rin. Kid rushes over to her tag team partner and mentor, trying to get her back up. She gets her up after some time and they use the same strategy as SKYForce They try to undo the titles but are jerked back.
They just got hit by SKY Force is why! They start fighting each other in a weird game of chicken mid match! Suzuki and Kid fight each other on their opponents shoulders. Kid is raised up and goes for another rana, but is caught by Suzuki. She powerbombs her off of Kubo’s shoulders.
Kubo hits her match ending lariat she calls the Kuboliser on Matsumoto. She gets Suzuki back up and they unhook the tag team titles, winning the match and the belts.
Karin Wholfe: “(Your winners of this match and NEW Angels of Sakura… SKY Force!)”
Yumiko Kanagawa: “(The resident Super Saiyan Rose, Nausicaa Suzuki finally did it! After multiple title matches she’s finally won her first title in her career! She’s finally achieved her girl hood dream!)”
Kayako Kai: “(And here comes their partner Shizuku to celebrate with them! The Championship transfer ceremony should begin now too.)”
The COO, CEO and GM all come out as tradition in SSS when a title changes hands. COO Kiyomi Yamashita gives them a check and shakes their hands while CEO Emi Sakata gives them a bouquet of flowers and shakes their hands. GM Dexter Point shakes their hands and helps put the titles around their waists before they all take pictures. They leave the new champs in the ring to celebrate alone.
Kayako Kai: “(Now they’re set to face off in an Ultimate X Match! Can the champions keep their history making reign alive? Or will SKY Force prove everyone it wasn’t just a fluke?)”
Karin Wholfe: “(This match is an Ultimate X Match and is at a 60 minute time limit! The only way to win this match is to climb across the ropes above the ring and unlatch the titles from the center.

'Homicide' hits the speakers and the synced voices of Bodhi & Boom-Boom harmoniously whisper through the speakers, before the duo of F-E-M walk out onto the stage, staring at the crowd. No smiles this time, as these girls mean business. They take a moment to observe the audience before fist bumping one another and walking to the ring. Boom-Boom breaks into a run and slides in across the ring, quickly popping up to mount a corner turnbuckle and stare into the crowd with a stern look. She removes her horned helm and tosses it to ringside, while Bodhi takes her time climbing the stairs and entering the ring through the ropes, circling the mat and stretching before the match.
Karin Wholfe: “(This match is a no holds barred and no dq match and is set for one fall at a 60 minute time limit! Introducing first the team of Bodhi and Boom-Boom, F.E.M.!)”
♪Expose yourself♪
Mei and Kikue come out from the back and walk to the opposite sides of the stage. Before Sakura comes out and poses in the middle. The three stare into the cameras before creeping down the ramp way.
♪True love and a blink of pleasure
Pseudo suicide
Don't care about how you look
The season of anxiety, the season of spring comes like the phantom killer
The bunny that tells lies, find it's way♪
The three walks around the ring now, with all three haggling fans to 'join them' on the 'right side'. the three make their way to the ring where they start moving with the music and stuff before going to their corner.
Karin Wholfe: “(And their opponents, the team of Sakura Hase and Mei Hayashi, Sakura-Gun!)”
The bell hardly rings before all four women go at one another. It’s a massive brawl in the middle of the ring. FEM get the Sakura-Gun members out of the ring before they play to the crowd and dive out. They eat some chairs right into their faces though, as they took a little too much time. Sakura and Mei get on top of them and start trying to choke them out.
Bodhi and Boom-Boom fight back and break free, driving their opponents into the guardrails on the outside. Boom-Boom and Mei go tumbling into the audience and start fighting throughout the fans on the floor. Meanwhile ringside Bodhi and Hase continue going back and forth.
Hase beats Bodhi down a bit and throws her over the guardrail and onto the table with the time keeper and announcer. Bodhi grabs the ring bell and clocks Sakura with it right in the face. She falls down onto the table. Meanwhile still in the crowd, and making their way up the stands now, Boom-Boom and Mei continue to brawl. Mei hits Boom-Boom with an enzugiri before she gets her backup and goes for her victoria driver early on. Boom-Boom breaks free and lands on her feet, She hits Hayashi with a Light The Fuse michinoku driver on the stairs and she goes tumbling down to the floor below.
Back ringside we see Bodhi attempt to drive Sakura through a table. Sakura gets free and hits Bodhi with her Black Driver brainbuster through the time keepers table. She throws her over the guardrail and back ringside before hopping over. Back to the other half of this match, Mei and Boom-Boom are fighting back through the crowd on the floor and making their way back to the ring slowly but surely.
Yumiko Kanagawa: “(This has been a chaotic fight since the bell rang! The hatred for one another is all being let out in this one for sure.)”
Sakura and Bodhi continue to brawl ringside, shortly after Hase is thrown into the ring she climbs the ropes and goes for a move we’ve seen end many of matches, the KAMIKAZE! That diving stunner, It lands and she goes for a cover.
ONE!
TWO!
TH-
No a kick out from Sakura. She’s become numb to it after taking it so much in their previous wars. Bodhi gets her back up and goes for a BBH, a swinging ddt from a headlock, and goes for another pin. It gets a one count. Ringside we finally see Boom-Boom and Hayashi. Boom-Boom gets thrown into the ring and Mei springboards in and hit a double hurricanrana on the members of FEM. Sakura and Mei try a double team on Bodhi as she gets sent into a Harmonious Decent into Madness with a superkick, roaring elbow, tornado kick combo. The cover and…
One!
The pin gets broken by Boom-Boom. They throw Hayashi out of the ring before hitting a powerbomb/backstabber combo on Hase. They continue to beat her down and double team her. Mei comes back in and helps garner a comeback for her team. Lots of high flying moves out of this quick exchange. It leaves Boom-Boom and Mei to crash and burn ringside after a hellacious avalanche superplex to the outside of the ring.
Bodhi and Sakura start trading strikes and eventually just grab a handful of one another's hair and start punching each other with closed fists. They start to just headbutt the shit out of each other now. Making one another bleed from their faces or noses. It’s hard to tell now.
Kayako Kai: “(Headbutts and closed fists, something normally against our rules here in SSS, but due to the no holds barred stipulation of this match they are indeed allowed just this one time only!)”
Bodhi hits Sakura with another cringe inducing headbutt you could hear from outside the stadium. Sakura falls down, only being held up by Bodhi, who’s holding a handful of her hair. Bodhi Lifts her up and screams with all her rage and fury. She goes for a buzzsaw kick, but somehow Hase ducks it.
It could be due to exhaustion or some sheer will, but she ducks the kick and grabs Bodhi by her arms. She puts her head in between her legs and lifts Bodhi up for a move she’s felt many times over this past two years. Happiness is A Warm Gun connects! The bridge and pin.
ONE!
TWO!
THRE-
Yumiko Kanagawa: “(A FUCKING DOUBLE MOONSAULT!)”
Kayako Kai: “(Boom-Boom with her match ending A Fucking Double Moonsault onto the open Sakura Hase! The pin from Sakura is broken, and there’s now one on her!)”
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
Karin Wholfe: “(The winners of this match… Boom-Boom and Bodhi, F.E.M.!)”
Yumiko Kanagawa: "(What a great fight, both sides putting all their bad blood on the table for the world to see. Ever since the first days of Bodhi and Kuroi Yami, now to FEM and Sakura-GUN there has never been a friendly word between these two.)"
Kayako Kai: "(It has been a war, but now finally FEM get their revenge for that heinous attack they suffered at the hands of Sakura-GUN almost a year ago and… Yumiko, what is this!)"
As Sakura-Gun are leaving the ring, Boom-Boom slides out of the ring to grab a chair, quickly returning while Bodhi grabs Sakura Hase by the waist and powers her back into the center with a vicious German Suplex! Sprawling out the former-Goddess of Sakura, Bodhi follows up with an unrelenting ground and pound, quickly spilling Skaura’s blood on the canvas. Quick to react, Boom-Boom now stands guard with the steel chair, making sure Mei can’t come to the rescue of her partner.
Yumiko Kanagawa: "(What is this now, a brutal post-match attack on their opponents. This is uncalled for!):
Kayako Kai: "(FEM are sending yet another message to Sakura Gun it seems, even though the just got the victory!)"
Continuing her assault in the ring, Bodhi decides a beating isn't enough for Sakura Gun and pulls her away from the ropes, locking in a vicious armbar on the star. Screaming out in pain isn’t enough, as Bodhi bends the arm viciously, tighter and tighter. Mei slides in, no longer able to hold back from defending her partner when-
*SMASH*
A steel chair to the face fixes that! Boom-Boom continues the assault on Mei’s leg, aiming every shot to her knee, working it until it crumbles. Tapping frantically, Sakura is getting no release from Bodhi, who keeps pending and bending until-
*CRACK*
The sound of breaking bone can be heard through the arena, followed immediately by the blood curdling screams of Sakura. Feeling like she’s had enough, Bodhi releases her hold and stands up. She signals for the steel chair from Boom-Boom, and delivers another couple of hard blows to the now-broken arm of Sakura.
Yumiko Kanagawa: "(This is disgusting! What kind of behavior is this from FEM!? A wild and feral attack!)"
Kayako Kai: "(The match is over, you won! This has gone too far!)"
Bodhi signals for a microphone, which Kharin reluctantly passes up to her. Bodhi then kicks at Mei until the roll out of the ring to the apron, crying out in pain. Boom-Boom has pulled Sakura to a kneeling position, before tossing her through the ropes to the outside too.
Bodhi: "See, ladies? Do you see what happens? To the girls all over the world, frail and weak. Afraid to stand up and fight. Do you see this!? This is what happens when you push a girl too far. This is what happens when the bitch shows her teeth, and bites. This is what you get when you challenge a Queen. Sakura Gun thought they had gotten away with their past indiscretions, thought that FEM would just roll over and forget about what you did to us a year ago? Look...look!"
Bodhi points to the large screen, that shows a clip of the last main encounter between FEM and Sakura Gun where Kuroi Yami, now Sakura Hase, pushed a large warehouse racking onto the girls, and ended up permanently retiring Kazia X from competition, and putting both Bodhi and Boom-Boom on the bench for months.
Bodhi: "You tried to beat us, you tried to end us, you tried to kill us! But now look at where we stand. I hold all the cards, and you, Sakura Gun, know what we are capable of. FEM once stood for female equality, we once fought for our place to be at the top of the cards, the head of the show. When I was the Goddess of SSS, I fought with honor and pride. And then you took that from me, not just my belt but everything else I stood for."
She walks towards the ropes, and leans on them, practically spitting at Sakura Hase on the floor below, still rolling around in agony.
Bodhi: "You tried to end everything we stood for, and in a way… you did. FEM died that day, FEM retired. Not by choice, but by force. You broke us then, and we have never healed. Tonight I broke you, and so ends our era of FEM… forget women's rights. Forget trying to stand tall amongst our male peers. Forget trying to make people notice what we can do in our female-only federation. This time… we’re taking the fight to the big leagues. No more FEM… no more ‘Female Empowerment Movement’... we are wild animals, we fight to kill, and we eat our prey."
We’re coming for the XHF. We’re coming for a new world. We are ruthless. We are unstoppable. We are… Animus!
The screen changes to show a new logo on screen, displaying the new name for the duo…
With that, Bodhi drops the microphone and climbs out of the ring with Boom-Boom. They take one last look at the broken Sakura Gun on the mat before exiting towards the back.
Kayako Kai: "(Sounds like FEM have had enough, and this is their statement to the world!)"
Yumiko Kanagawa: "(But did they need to make it so bloody and violent! Eesh… sounds like FEM is no more, and we are about to get a more vicious version of the girls. Stay tuned to SSS to see more of ‘Animus’ in action. We’ll be right back, after these commercials… jeez, someone really should get a medic out here, fast!...)"
Match Eleven: XHF Women's Championship Title Match; Submission Match
Nixie Caine Vs. Hanako Takeuchi(C.)
Nixie Caine Vs. Hanako Takeuchi(C.)
Yumiko Kanagawa: “(What a great match we just saw folks! Now we go from that ultimate x match to a more grounded and technical one. Nixie Caine is going to be challenging Hanako Takeuchi in a submission match!)”
Kayako Kai: “(You have to wonder how Hanako’s sprained ribs will play in this match. That injury she suffered earlier this month has slowed her down quiet a bit and you know Nixie is going to exploit it tonight!)”
Karin Wholfe: “(This match is a submission match and can only be won by submission. This match is at a 60 minute time limit and is for the XHF Women’s Championship!)”
Wreak Havoc would echo from the loud speakers as a blast of hot pink & black checkers would hit the screen just as Nixie Caine skipped out from the backstage area; a twisted smile laced on her lips. Caine would stand at the top of the stage with her arms behind her back for a moment as the hot pink & White spot lights swing around the area before she would skip down the ring. Once she gets half way, she would hop into a sprint to the ring; sliding into the middle it on her belly. Once there, Caine would place her elbows on the mat then lean her head on her hands as she kicked her legs like a child; sticking her colourful tongue out at the opponent for a few moments. She would then pop up and back herself up into her respected corner, grinning; never taking her eyes off her opponent.
Karin Wholfe: “(Introducing first in the blue corner, standing in at 5’0 and weighing in at 121 pounds, from New South Wales, Australia she is “Little Pink Nightmare” Nixie Caine!)”
“Babylonian Gorgon” by The Bags hits and the crowd pops. Hanako Takeuchi steps out with a confident, broad-shouldered stride. It doesn't take her long to get to the ring.
Karin Wholfe: “(Introducing next, her opponent in the red corner! Standing at 5’11 and weighing in at 136 pounds, coming from Kamagasaki, Osaka, Japan she is the REIGNING DEFENDING XHF Women’s Champion… “The Black Rose” Hanako Takeuchi!)”
We can see the wrapped up ribs of Takeuchi as the bell rings, both women lock up in a test of power. The taller Takeuchi uses that height to her advantage and bends Caine over into a bridge over her knee. She pushes down and drives her knee into her spine. Nixie manages to use her power and strength to get up and she bridges Hanako onto the mat. She jumps onto her with all her weight to break the bridge, but it stays. She does it again and it breaks this time.
Still holding onto the wrists of the champ Nixie starts driving knees into her ribs as she holds her hands down to the mat. Takeuchi uses her long legs to wrap them around Caine and get a leglock choke on her. She pushes up and tries to really get it all in there. Nixie manages to roll over Hanako to her belly, she starts hopping on her head back and forth and manages to pop out of the leglock. She holds onto her legs and grabs her neck. She pulls her over and gets her in a bow and arrow submission of her own.
Hanako grabs her legs and manages to bridge up and get some space. She flips over, holding onto Nixie and drops her with a samoan drop. She grabs at her ribs hurting herself a bit before she gets back up to her feet. Both ladies back up now. They tie up again, this time Nixie getting the upper hand. She picks the champ up and drops her down ribs first onto her knee. She lifts her up again, but eats an elbow. She drops her and Hanako lifts her up and puts her arms behind her back before power slamming her onto the mat. She grabs an arm again and starts stomping on it and dropping some knees into it.
Kayako Kai: “(A very back and forth match so far. Nixie working the ribs and hoping she can get enough damage on them to win. Hanako seems to be focusing on the arms now, perhaps going for that dangerous Kimura lock of hers.)”
Nixie grabs a handful of hair and slams down Takeuchi, she starts driving knees and elbows into her ribs before she digs her fingers in between a few of ‘em. Takeuchi starts to grunt before she lets out a screech of pain. The referee gives her a 5 count to break the illegal hold and she does at 4. She gets up and starts stomping the ribs of Hanako before picking her up. She tries to get in a submission but is flipped over onto her feet and eats short arm lariat from Takeuchi that lays her out on mat.
Hanako locks in an armbar and really wrenches it in. Caine gets to the ropes and the submission breaks. She rolls out of the ring to get some distance and a breather before coming back in. Hanako charges her when she gets back but is caught by Caine with a northern lights suplex she calls the Deadlight Suplex. She keeps hold and brings her back up to lock in an abdominal stretch.
She really gets it in and even drives in some elbows and claws into her exposed ribs to add more pain to the submission. Hanako starts to scream out in pain from the hurt ribs and submission being applied. Nixie keeps it locked in and we eventually see Hanako black out. The referee lifts her arm, that’s one. The fans start to cheer and chant her name, trying to rally her back up. Another time and another time the arm drops. The fans even louder now, the whole stadium vibrating in support for the XHF Women’s Champion.
It drops a bit one final time, but before the ref makes a final call her arm raises into the sky. She shakes her hand as the fans continue to scream and cheer. She wiggles about and breaks free from the submission, hurt ribs and all she starts unloading a plethora of stiff strikes on Caine. She irish whips her into the ropes and locks in the tilt-a-whirl Kimura lock in the middle of the ring on the comeback. She gives it everything she has as Nixie kicks and screams about. After a few minutes she taps out leaving both women laying in the ring.
Karin Wholfe: “(Your winner of this match and STILL XHF Women’s Champion, “The Black Rose” Hanako Takeuchi!)”
Kayako Kai: “(You have to wonder how Hanako’s sprained ribs will play in this match. That injury she suffered earlier this month has slowed her down quiet a bit and you know Nixie is going to exploit it tonight!)”

CEO Emi Sakata is shown on the screen, She's shown in her office and this was an obviously prerecorded message from earlier in the week.
Emi Sakata: "(Hello everyone, As you may know tonight is the final show under the SSS name and we will be merging with our SEC partner SKS. This merging will begin technically at this very show. Although it will officially take place January 1st. On January 1st i will no longer be CEO nor will i be in the wrestling business anymore. J-ROK will be ran by new person who at this time wishes to be anonymous. Rest assured you all are in trusted hands going into the new decade.)"
We cut to a shot of the crowd.
Emi Sakata: "(Due to J-ROK being a new company all members of both the SKS and SSS rosters will need to sign new contracts under J-ROK. And as for the titles contended for tonight, most will be either merged at a later time or retired. Some titles, the Idol of Sakura and Angles of Sakura Championships will continue on into J-ROK, although the names of those titles will likely change. Speaking of J-ROK we'd like to show you the new logo at this moment.)"
Emi Sakata: "(J-ROK will be heavily focused on stables, Speaking of this, J-ROK will have a draft event roughly two weeks from now. All members of the soon to be J-ROK roster will take part in this draft. There will be 5 stables that have already been chosen and the leaders of these stables will be the ones to draft members from the J-ROK roster. More information on this will be available at a later time. Also our social media platforms will be changing from the SSS brand to the J-ROK brand at the end of this year and beginning of the next. More on J-ROK and more on our future will become available in the coming weeks. Thank you.)"

Match Twelve: Standard SSS Rules; 60 Minute Time Limit
Emi Hirota Vs. Fukushima Zombie
Emi Hirota Vs. Fukushima Zombie
Yumiko Kanagawa: “(What a match we have in store for you! We have the first ever IJWF Champion and international star Emi Hirota take on one of the aces of SSS in Fukushima Zombie in their first ever singles match here.)”
Kayako Kai: “(This should be a very competitive match up between two of the very best in the world, we’re sure to be in for a treat with this one!)”
Karin Wholfe: “(This match is a singles match and is set for one fall at a 60 minute time limit!)”
After a few bars of her music hits, Emi steps out onto the entrance way, wasting no time as she enters the ring.
Karin Wholfe: “(Introducing first in the blue corner, standing at 5’1 and weighing in at 115 pounds, from Nagano, Japan she is Emi Hirota!)”
The music begins to play as the lights go out. Fukushima comes out to the cheers of the fans and makes her way down to the ring.
Karin Wholfe: “(And her opponent in the red corner, standing in at 5’5 and weighing in at 135 pounds, coming from Fukushima, Japan she Fukushima Zombie!)”
With both women now in the ring, we can hear chants for both women throughout the stadium. Both ladies shake hands before circling each other and locking up in the middle of the ring. Zombie drops down and attempts an arm drag on Hirota, she cartwheels back to her feet and goes for a dropkick, it’s dodged and Fukushima goes for a senton, Emi rolls out of the way and goes for a quick pin attempt. Zombie bridges and slides out.
Both to their feet again after that quick exchange and the fans clap loudly for what they just saw. Both women lock up once more, this time Hirota using a foot to get Fukushima down to a knee while working a headlock at the same time. She gets her down to the floor and locks in her patent Cobra Clutch. Emi really gets it in tight as Zombie tries to break free. She manages to get enough and roll her over onto her back for a pint attempt.
ONE!
TW-
Kick out and both women back to their feet again. Emi charges going for her devastating knee trembler she calls the Nagano Knee early on, Fuku blocks it and irish whips her into the ropes, she lifts her up and hits her with a back breaker on the way back down. She goes for a quick pin, but Emi bridges out this time early on and slips right out of the pin attempt.
Kayako Kai: “(A very even match so far. Neither woman is giving too much to the other at all.)”
Some strikes from each lady now, as they exchange chops, forearms and other blows. They go back and forth all over the ring, Fukushima getting Hirota into the corner and lighting her chest up with chops, she tries to irish whip her into the other one, but it gets reversed instead. A big boot in the other corner from Emi before she lights up Fukushima with a flurry of chops to her chest. She throws Zombie into the ropes and lays her out with a ferocious lariat from Hirota. A pin attempt now.
ONE!
TWO!
THRE-
No Zombie gets her foot onto the bottom rope. Emi picks her up for a deadlift german and hits it, she goes for another with the same result, a third, but no Fukushima breaks free and gets behind her. She hits a german of her own. Both ladies pop up and off the ropes goes Zombie. She charges Hirota, but is flipped over the ropes and onto the apron. Emi tries something, but is met with a kick to the face.
Zombie springboards off the ropes and lands a missile dropkick onto Emi. Emi rolls and stands up to her feet, leaning on the ropes to hold herself up. Fukushima rushes towards her and hits a sliding german on Hirota before climbing the top rope. She attempts to jump off with her 630 senton, but is stopped by Emi who hits her with a leaping shoutai.
Both women up top now begin to jockey for position up in the high risk district. Emi gets it with a few strikes to the midsection of Zombie. She lifts her up and down they go with a superplex! Both women are down as the ref begins the 10 count. It doesn’t get too far as both ladies manage to somehow get back up to their feet. Emi lets out an ear piercing scream before running off the ropes and hitting a lariat onto Fukushima. In the process of this she grabs her arm and rolls through with her match finishing Fujiwara armbar she calls the Adaptable Armbar. A few minutes pass by, but Fukushima manages to transition the submission into her own spider twist that she calls Jigoku. With nowhere to go or no way to escape Emi is forced to tap.
Karin Wholfe: “(Your winner of this match, Fukushima Zombie!)”
Kayako Kai: “(This should be a very competitive match up between two of the very best in the world, we’re sure to be in for a treat with this one!)”

A big boot in the other corner from Emi before she lights up Fukushima with a flurry of chops to her chest. She throws Zombie into the ropes and lays her out with a ferocious lariat from Hirota. A pin attempt now.
ONE!
TWO!
THRE-
No Zombie gets her foot onto the bottom rope. Emi picks her up for a deadlift german and hits it, she goes for another with the same result, a third, but no Fukushima breaks free and gets behind her. She hits a german of her own. Both ladies pop up and off the ropes goes Zombie. She charges Hirota, but is flipped over the ropes and onto the apron. Emi tries something, but is met with a kick to the face.
Zombie springboards off the ropes and lands a missile dropkick onto Emi. Emi rolls and stands up to her feet, leaning on the ropes to hold herself up. Fukushima rushes towards her and hits a sliding german on Hirota before climbing the top rope. She attempts to jump off with her 630 senton, but is stopped by Emi who hits her with a leaping shoutai.
Both women up top now begin to jockey for position up in the high risk district. Emi gets it with a few strikes to the midsection of Zombie. She lifts her up and down they go with a superplex! Both women are down as the ref begins the 10 count. It doesn’t get too far as both ladies manage to somehow get back up to their feet. Emi lets out an ear piercing scream before running off the ropes and hitting a lariat onto Fukushima. In the process of this she grabs her arm and rolls through with her match finishing Fujiwara armbar she calls the Adaptable Armbar. A few minutes pass by, but Fukushima manages to transition the submission into her own spider twist that she calls Jigoku. With nowhere to go or no way to escape Emi is forced to tap.
Karin Wholfe: “(Your winner of this match, Fukushima Zombie!)”

Joe tags out to his partner, keeping his team well rested and fresh. Sulivan cuts off Anna before she can tag out herself. He picks her up, but she starts fighting back.

She irish whips him into the ropes and hits him with a hurricanrana on the way back. She gets him back up and slams him down with a scoop slam before tagging out to Lisa. Lisa runs towards Joe and knocks him off the apron before she charges a now standing Creed. She goes for a lariat, but he grabs her arm and rolls over, hitting a neckbreaker on her. He hits her with a leg drop for good measure before going for a pin.
ONE!
TW-

She throws him into her corner and tags out to Anna, They hit their KneeVD death valley driver onto some knees combo. A few stomps from Anna to keep him down.

She gets thrown into his corner and he tags out to Joe again. They hit a double superplex on her.
Kayako Kai: “(What a match so far! Both teams really doing all they can to get the win tonight!)”

He throws her back into the ring and goes for a pin.
ONE!
TWO!
THR-
No Mathews breaks it up. Joe and Lisa brawl in the ring for a bit, going back and forth. Sullivan distracts the ref at one point for his partner to try something, but it backfires and Lisa hits him with her blinding mist attack she calls the wolfesbane. She tags out to Anna and they hit their Necronomicon leg sweep/bicycle kick combo to get the one, two, three.
Karin Wholfe: “(Your winners of this match and Sakura Tag League winners… Dodo-A-Gogo!)”

Fade in.
It’s the oh so familiar sight of the Sakura Shoujo Stampede Goddess of Sakura Championship. Tilt upwards. STRiFE is seen sitting on a bench.
STRiFE: I’m not going to sit here and waste a bunch of time. Besides, my words aren’t proflic enough to describe what’s going to happen to Darlene Price out there.
A pause as her eyes look at the camera.
STRiFE: You and your group? You’re not as tough as you make yourselves out to be. If you were, you would have knuckled up a long time ago. Instead, you hid behind ambushes and assaults. And don’t you dare say it was a tactic or way to send a message. The best way to send a message, is to beat someone in the middle of the ring. No shenanigans. That reduces excuses.
Another pause.
STRiFE: But you couldn’t do that, Darlene. You couldn’t approach me in the ring, one-on-one. Because you knew the truth―
A dramatic pause.
STRiFE: That I’d murder you.
A grunt escapes.
STRiFE: Well Darlene, I hope you’ve gotten your will in order. That mruder is finally going to take place. There’s no one to help you tonight. There’s nowhere to run. And there’s nowhere to hide. You are going to face me, and all of my wrath. And trust me, you’ve garnered a lot of wrath.
The camera lingers on STRiFE for bit.
Fade to black.

Main Event: Goddess of Sakura Title Match; Cage Match; 60 Minute Time Limit
Darlene Price Vs. STRiFE(C.)
Darlene Price Vs. STRiFE(C.)
Yumiko Kanagawa: “(For 3 months now Darlene Price has been a constant thorn in the side of STRiFE. Ever since her unexpected debut at Chaos! In Taipei when her and her E.V.E. compatriots beat her down after a hard fought victory against Lisa Frankenstein.)”
Kayako Kai: “(That’s right She’s constantly been at STRiFE, causing her to slowly boil inside. But now with this upcoming cage match there is no running. There is no way in or out after that door closes and there are no seconds allowed for either woman in this one tonight. I feel bad for anyone locked in with a pissed off STRiFE, but we’ll have to wait and see how this one plays out.)”
Karin Wholfe: “(This is a cage match! The only way to win this match is by pinfall or submission inside the ring. Once both competitors are in the cage neither shall leave till there is a winner. If any woman voluntarily leaves the cage by walking out the door or climbing down from over the top they will forfeit and lose the match. This match is for the Goddess of Sakura Championship!)”
Last of the Real by Stone Sour starts to play over the speakers, Darlene comes out eyeing the crowd for a second before she makes her way down to the ring, high-fiveing a few random fans here and there, she circles the ring slowly as her song plays, she then steps back, runs and slides onto the ring apron on her knee, she rests her back on the top rope her arms draped over it, she sticks her tongue out to the crowd, she then throws her arms out into the crucifix pose with metal horns, slowly she raises her arms up above her head crossed, then throws them down, she then turns and leaps into the ring, tossing her jean vest off out of the ring.
Karin Wholfe: “(Introducing first in the blue corner, the challenger standing in at 5’8 and weighing in at 145 pounds she is from The Wrong Neck of The Woods… “The Hardcore Ambassadore” Darlene Price!)”
The lights start to dim as the intro to “Sin” by Lynch. begins to play throughout the venue. The song starts to really kick into high gear at about twenty-eights seconds. At that point, STRiFE makes her way out from the back; her signature black towel is draped around her shoulders and covering the top of her head.
There’s a seriousness and sternness in her eyes as she deliberately makes her way down to the ring. She circles the ring until she makes it over to the steel steps. STRiFE then steps through the ropes and enters the ring. She makes her over to where the hard camera is positioned. She then removes the towel, revealing her face. STRiFE gives the camera a dirty look or two before she heads to the corner. The music then dies down as she waits for the match to begin.
Karin Wholfe: “(Introducing her opponent in the red corner, standing in at 5’4 and weighing in at 120 pounds, from Kyoto, Japan she is your REIGNING DEFENDING Goddess of Sakura Champion… STRiFE!)”
The bell hardly rings before both women go at each other. Lots of fists a flying already as both ladies let ‘em go at each other in the middle of the ring. STRiFE grabs Price and throws her into one side of the cage. She grabs her and throws her into another before screaming out.
She grabs Darlene from the otherside of the ropes and lays in some elbows into her chest. She runs the ropes and goes for a big boot, but Darlene moves out of the way. STRiFE hits the cage and gets caught up in the ropes after Price grabs her leg and hits a dragon screw leg whip on her. She grabs STRiFE and brings her over to the otherside of the ropes, both women on the apron now, Darlene shoves her face into the cage, grating it and smashing it against the steele.
She drags STRiFE into the ring again and drops her with a powerbomb before climbing to the top rope. She goes for a frog splash but STRiFE dodges it. Both back to their feet Price eats a big boot, she bounces off the ropes and hits STRiFE with a lariat. Both women laying down now.
Price up first and starts stomping STRiFE a bit before she picks her up. She drags her into the corner where she starts chopping her up. She throws her into the ropes before chasing after her, she hits a spear that she calls the Executive Order. A pin attempt and…
ONE!
T-
No a kick out with authority. STRiFE back up and for the first time a lock up in this match. STRiFE digs in some brutal knees, nearly making Price cough. She drives her back up into a corner where she gives a few well placed slaps before backing up a bit and charging with a corner shining wizard. She keeps hold of her head and goes for a bulldog, but Darlene slips out and pulls her back looking for that cutter, STRiFE pushes her away and keeps hold of her wrist. She goes for that deadly slap, but Darlene ducks it and pulls STRiFE back for a ripcord Pele kick attempt. STRiFE grabs the ankle of Price and locks in an ankle lock by the end of the exchange.
Yumiko Kanagawa: “(An ankle lock in the middle of the ring now after that impressive series we just saw.)”
Price starts kicking STRiFE in the face to get out of the ankle lock, she grabs STRiFE’s own ankle and locks in one of her own. Both start stomping and kicking at one another as they simultaneously wrench in that ankle lock. After a bit they both let go of it, and get back up. They start limping a bit, before they shake and slap some feeling back into their legs.
STRiFE takes down Price and starts laying in some mounted punches. Darlene catches one and tries to roll over into an armbar. She doesn’t get all of it and is stopped, we get a pin attempt for a two count. Darlene rolls it over all the way now and gets in an armbar. STRiFE gets up to her feet and lifts her up. She drops her back down on her shoulders, trying to get Darlene off her arm.
Price holds on and trips up STRiFE, she gets up to her feet and runs the ropes, coming back to hit a curb stomp on STRiFE that she calls the Fash Stomp. Another quick pin attempt and a two for her troubles. STRiFE back up now, dodges a lariat, she grabs her wrist and spins her around hitting her red reign ripcord slap. It gets Darlene wobbly on her knees, but not down all the way just yet.
STRiFE slaps her hard again and a third time. She goes for one more but it’s dodged, a straight jacket german from Darlene, she rolls over and gets STRiFE back up. She goes for another, but STRiFE rolls her into a victory roll. A pin attempt and a two count for it.
Both back up to their feet, they go back and forth some more before Price gets her down and climbs up to the top ropes. She decides to go up even further and climbs to the top of the cage. STRiFE soon follows and they trade strikes with each other up top. Both come dangerously close to falling from the top, but manage to keep a grip on the cage and stay up. Price would get STRiFE on her shoulders in a samoan drop position when she’d drop from the top of the cage onto the mat below. A pin and…
ONE!
TWO!
THRE-
Kayako Kai: “(Wait a minute! Wait a minute! STRiFE she’s… she’s…)”
She’s somehow got Price in a crucifix and is laying in a flurry of elbows into the head of Price. She doesn’t let up or stop at all.
Yumiko Kanagawa: “(She’s not stopping! This is hard to watch folks… this is really hard to watch.)”
The referee is left with no choice but to stop the match. STRiFE keeps at the elbow strikes to a now unconscious Price. Referees pour out to get her off now.
Karin Wholfe: “(Your winner of this match by referee stoppage, and STILL your Goddess of Sakura Champion… STRiFE!)”
Kayako Kai: “(That’s right She’s constantly been at STRiFE, causing her to slowly boil inside. But now with this upcoming cage match there is no running. There is no way in or out after that door closes and there are no seconds allowed for either woman in this one tonight.

Emi Sakata comes out from the back, not to take part in the championship transfer ceremony or anything like that, she's out here to address the fans and SSS faithful. She stands at the stage, and by this point the main event is over with and the cage has been lifted up and STRiFE has now gone on to the back. Emi gives a warm smile.
Emi Sakata: "(What a main event! Congratulations to STRiFE for retaining her Goddess of Sakura Championship. Although praising the main event and the whole show altogether isn't the only reason why i'm out here. No, I wanted to come out here to send off SSS the same way we opened SSS. So if everyone in the back please come out here with me and meet me around the ring.)"
She proceeds to walk ringside along with the rest of the roster members. They all gather around the ring as the lights go down and a spotlight appears on whoever holds the mic, in this instance it’s Emi Sakata.
Emi Sakata: “(Two years ago to the very day we held our first Winter Festival event. We were a small and humble promotion with a measly roster of 11 women signed with us. That night we would gain recurring stars who would offer their services to us a few times a year. Some went on to sign up with us full time. Others never to be seen again…)”
Emi Sakata: “(The women from that time i’d like to specifically name and thank right now. Alexis Grace, Rukia Matsuoka, Sakura Hase, STRiFE, Bodhi, Rei Kagura, Ember Ferrari, Gabby Kaylor, Cherry Miyawaki, Alyson Hydecker, Cici Dupree, and Azumi Goto. These women all gave me and this company a chance. A shot in the dark. Some left, Many stayed, a few came back. For those who remained here since the first show, since the first Winter Festival in 2017, i say thank you. Thank you for your loyalty and respect. For the dedication to this company and the message we held dear to our hearts. Thank you.)”
She gives a smile as she starts to get emotional a tad bit.
Emi Sakata: “(So many people came and left in the 2 years that under the SSS name. We grew from running high school gyms to stadiums like the one we’re in tonight. We gained many partners along the way in the likes of Rose City, LAW, and JET. From spreading our reach to millions across the XHF Network and even beyond that. To forming the IJWF and helping bring women’s wrestling to the forefront.)”
She tries to hold it together as she continues on.
Emi Sakata: “(You know many times i was close to closing up shop. To ending the promotion. But because of you fans, because of this here roster of incredible people… I kept pushing through. And honestly, i’m happy i did. I met so many great people through this rollercoaster of a time running SSS. I am truly blessed to have gotten to work with each and every single one of you standing here with me today, and those who have left us for greener pastures. Never in my wildest dreams would i of ever imagined selling out the Nissan Stadium. Of bringing back the XHF Women’s Championship. Honestly i didn’t think we’d last to the end of 2017 much less this long. But you all kept me, kept this going.)”
Tears begin to swell up and fall down her cheeks.
Emi Sakata: “(But we made it this long right? We did more than I could ever imagine. It’s just the finances… they began to build up more and more. I made mistakes getting loans from people… i did things i really shouldn’t have and i had no choice but to sell off what assets of SSS were left to pay them. Words will never express how sorry i am for failing you all.)”
She bows deeply as tears roll down her face.
Emi Sakata: “(But rest assured, you will be in good hands with the new owner. Tonight is the end of SSS, but tomorrow is the beginning of J-ROK and with this new company it will continue on the legacy of SSS while forging it’s own. So, again thank you all for ever supporting us and for taking a chance on us. Before we go please listen to some of our roster members and their final words.)”
Emi hands the microphone to Lisa Frankenstein. She hesitates for a moment before finally saying something.
Lisa Frankenstein: “I’ll be perfectly honest. I’ve had a lot of ups and downs while I’ve been here, and I’d be lying if I said I’d ended up where I wanted. I came here to be a champion, and I was, but I stayed for the good times, the stupid shit.”
She paces back and forth for a moment.
Lisa Frankenstein: “So here’s to more creepy little goth women, more egg matches and more stables full of tits who don’t know why they’re here and don’t belong either. Fuck you, Eve. However many of you there are.”
Lisa takes a bow before handing it off to Bodhi.
Bodhi raises the microphone again, and more boos come flooding but she silences them.
Bodhi: "Shut it! Don’t you know who I am, don’t you know what I am to this company? You should be praising me, honoring me! I walked into SSS, a newbie. An amateur. And I quickly rose to the top of pops, becoming the first ever Goddess of Sakura. And now you losers are booing me? Get real!"
More boos, louder and angrier.
Bodhi: "Whine and boo all you want, only one thing will change… I get even more of the spotlight. And that is something I am planning on doing a lot in 2020, with my goals very clear and very focused. FEM is no more, myself and Boom-Boom are tired of being your puppy dogs, sweet and cute and that shit. We’re done! This is going to be our year, this WILL be the year of Animus! And I know exactly where to start…"
Bodhi looks to the ringside, and locks eyes with HANAKO TAKEUCHI. She then quickly glances down to the XHF Women’s Championship belt around her waist, and back to her eyes.
Bodhi: "Quite the belt you have there, HANAKO, but a gal like you isn’t fit to wear that title. You are SSS material, maybe even J-ROK material but are you XHF status? No fucking chance."
She laughs, frustrating the crowd more. HANAKO doesn’t seem phased, almost mouthing the words ‘Bring It’. She takes another look around, pausing on each of the other title belts in attendance.
Bodhi: "Angels of Sakura… Idol of Sakura… Goddess of Sakura… so many options, so many avenues. Boom-Boom, what do you say? You want some gold too?"
Boom-Boom yells from ringside, a very audible ‘Fuck Yeah!’.
Yumiko Kanagawa: "(Animus are staking their claim on the champions! Getting in line for 2020 already!)"
Bodhi: "I won’t lie, my time in SSS has been rocky to say the least. I’ve had to deal with personal issues, had to deal with assault and harassment, injuries and career-threatening attacks, and even took a break to return home to America. But after all that, I realize that’s not where my home is… THIS, is where I belong! And from my early days as the first ever Goddess of Sakura, to my soon-to-be future where I will wear that XHF Women’s Championship around my waist, you will all remember my name… Bodhi, the White Devil! J-ROK… let’s do this!"
She drops the microphone and kicks it as it lands to cause a very annoying loud static interference sound. She signals to Boom-Boom at ringside, who circles the ring to join Bodhi as she exits the ring, and both walk up the ramp to the back.
The mic is handed to Momoko Honda next. She gives a smile before she begins to speak in Japanese. Which is translated to English so others can understand.
Momoko Honda: “(Since joining SSS I have grown a lot, not only as a wrestler as a woman as well. Even though it has been over a year I have gone through so many steps in this company. Not only have I achieved the success I have also heartbreak, even with that heartbreak I have stepped up and got better. Better than most thought I would. I have captured the hearts of many.)”
Momoko gives a grateful smile, tilting her head down.
Momoko Honda: “(Not only have I captured you guys' hearts, but you have also captured mine as well. Due to y’alls support, I pushed myself when it comes to training. When I was on the losing side, y’all cheered me on to get back up and fight harder than ever before, I was able to capture the Pride of Sakura Championship, which was my highest achievement by far in SSS, until tonight, when I won the Idol of Sakura Championship. I received so many emails and letters, mentioning how much I am an idol to so many.)”
She brings her hand to her face, seems as if she had wiped a tear from her eyes. Momoko brings her head up, snuffing her nose.
Momoko Honda: “(It is all thanks to SSS I would be considered a role model. They gave me a chance and I have not let them down one bit. In the future, I will continue to get better. 2020 will be a moment to prove that I can be considered the ace of SSS. It will be a dangerous journey, but I have been known to surprise the world on huge occasions.)”
Even though Momoko is giving a bright smile, the intense look of a warrior is blazing in her eyes.
Sakura Hase grabs the mic next, one arm in a sling from the vicious attack earlier. She may not seem it, but lots of emotions are all over her face before she even speaks.
Sakura Hase: “(This is it huh? This is the end of the road for SSS. I know, i know it’s just the end of the sss name, not the whole promotion. But is it really? The way i see it… the way Sakura-Gun sees it, there is no future without SSS. There is no future for us if we’re not wrestling in this ring we’re surrounding right now.)”
Sakura starts tries to hold back her emotions.
Sakura Hase: “(So… i won’t beat around the bush. Sakura-Gun is disbanding and we are retiring tonight. We were born with SSS, me fighting that bitch over there)”
She gestures towards Bodhi.
Sakura Hase: “(Our loyalty is to SSS and SSS only. The new owner may be a great person, but no one will ever surpass what Sakata-San did for us. What she did for me. I was in the first match in this company and my final match is against my bitter rival, who i detested inside and outside of the ring. I became Goddess of Sakura Champion and for that i am truly grateful.)”
Sakura Hase: “(I went on to lose to Zombie-Chan over there. She went on to become the longest reigning champion in our companies history and in the XHF’s history. Then we have women like Alexis Grace and Blake Belladonna who made the Idol of Sakura Championship worth something. And we have so many great teams who elevated tag team wrestling. Then we have women like Frankenstein-San and STRiFE-San. For those losers who are too ‘cool’ to of ever watched women’s wrestling you’ll never understand just how great and amazing these women are.)”
Sakura Hase: “(And for those who don’t, i doubt you’re watching this now anyways, so this is probably pointless, but anyways, fuck you for never giving us a chance. And fuck you even more for when this company gets men and you all of a sudden gain an interest in it. You’re all hypocrites and pretenders. But anyways… Thank you Sakata-San, thank you fans, thank you SSS. We bid you adieu.)”
Sakura bows deeply as she tries to hide herself wiping away tears. The mic is then handed to Fukushima Zombie.
Fukushima Zombie: “(Sakura Shoujo Stampede is the place where I developed into who I am today. I fought my friends here and made some bitter enemies. I made my name known by myself among my peers. I went from an awkward girl out of the dojo to a champion. This is where I learned to be great.)”
She looks around at her peers.
Fukushima Zombie: “(Change is always inevitable, but I never expected this. The company grows into another entity where the challenges will be greater and the audience more in tune with what we will have to show them. I am ready to take on these challenges and remind people that the SSS name still lives in me like a ghost in the wind. We are expanding and I will adapt.)”
She now looks directly at the camera with white pupils.
Fukushima Zombie: “(I will forever remember what SSS did for me. I will use that as momentum to go into the new year and new company strong as ever. I will be a champion once again because I know what it means now to be great. SSS was great and I will make this new entity great as well. All you can do is watch in horror and admiration. I will be your favorite Zombie once again.)”
She smiles while it looks like she is bleeding from her mouth in a grotesque visage. The shot cuts as it zooms in.
The camera cuts over to the tiny ball of rage known as STRiFE. She wipes some sweat away from her face before she begins speaking.
STRiFE: Some people come to SSS because they are seeking fame. Others come here because they are seeking glory. But me? I came here to fight.
A head nod.
STRiFE: My first match here was against Sang-Hyun Lee, back at Winter Festival 2017. I’m not going to lie and say I knew everything about the company. I didn’t know much. What I did know, is that the company opened its doors to me. What I do know, is that SSS gave me the opportunity to go out there and show the world what I do best—
A finger snap.
STRiFE: That’s kick ass, in case you didn’t know.
She strolls around a bit.
STRiFE: You saw me do it against Alexis Grace for the Idols of Sakura Championship. You saw me do it when I won the Mach 20 Tournament this year. And you saw me do it tonight when I humbled Darlene Price.
The strolling continues. Her brain moves as well.
STRiFE: I think that’s what made SSS special. It had its flaws, just like any other company. No promotion is perfect. But it gave people an opportunity to excel at what they were good at―
Another pause.
STRiFE: And I don’t think Japanese Renaissance of Kakuto will be any different.
A head nod.
STRiFE: I wasn’t here for SSS’s humble beginnings. But I will be for J-Rok’s. And I’m going to be at the forefront. You can bet on that.
We cut to the commentators table where we see Kayako Kai and Yumiko Kanagawa trying to keep it together themselves.
Kayako Kai: “(Like everyone else, we’re so proud to of been apart of this company. We’re so happy to of gotten a chance in SSS.)”
Yumiko Kanagawa: “(We’re not really sure what our future will be or what will happen in 2020, but we wholeheartedly wish for you all to continue to support these great women and men who will form the new J-ROK. We hope you enjoyed tonights show and we hope that you all will join us for one final moment in SSS.)”
The camera pans across many fans who show their emotions. We hear the 10 bells go off as we lay rest to one final shot of the SSS roster and one final shot of the SSS ring. The camera resting on the center of the ring where the SSS logo is in full view. The last bell rings as we slowly fade to black.
Emi Sakata: "(What a main event! Congratulations to STRiFE for retaining her Goddess of Sakura Championship. Although praising the main event and the whole show altogether isn't the only reason why i'm out here. No, I wanted to come out here to send off SSS the same way we opened SSS. So if everyone in the back please come out here with me and meet me around the ring.)"
She proceeds to walk ringside along with the rest of the roster members. They all gather around the ring as the lights go down and a spotlight appears on whoever holds the mic, in this instance it’s Emi Sakata.
Emi Sakata: “(Two years ago to the very day we held our first Winter Festival event. We were a small and humble promotion with a measly roster of 11 women signed with us. That night we would gain recurring stars who would offer their services to us a few times a year. Some went on to sign up with us full time. Others never to be seen again…)”
Emi Sakata: “(The women from that time i’d like to specifically name and thank right now. Alexis Grace, Rukia Matsuoka, Sakura Hase, STRiFE, Bodhi, Rei Kagura, Ember Ferrari, Gabby Kaylor, Cherry Miyawaki, Alyson Hydecker, Cici Dupree, and Azumi Goto. These women all gave me and this company a chance. A shot in the dark. Some left, Many stayed, a few came back. For those who remained here since the first show, since the first Winter Festival in 2017, i say thank you. Thank you for your loyalty and respect. For the dedication to this company and the message we held dear to our hearts. Thank you.)”
She gives a smile as she starts to get emotional a tad bit.
Emi Sakata: “(So many people came and left in the 2 years that under the SSS name. We grew from running high school gyms to stadiums like the one we’re in tonight. We gained many partners along the way in the likes of Rose City, LAW, and JET. From spreading our reach to millions across the XHF Network and even beyond that. To forming the IJWF and helping bring women’s wrestling to the forefront.)”
She tries to hold it together as she continues on.
Emi Sakata: “(You know many times i was close to closing up shop. To ending the promotion. But because of you fans, because of this here roster of incredible people… I kept pushing through. And honestly, i’m happy i did. I met so many great people through this rollercoaster of a time running SSS. I am truly blessed to have gotten to work with each and every single one of you standing here with me today, and those who have left us for greener pastures. Never in my wildest dreams would i of ever imagined selling out the Nissan Stadium. Of bringing back the XHF Women’s Championship. Honestly i didn’t think we’d last to the end of 2017 much less this long. But you all kept me, kept this going.)”
Tears begin to swell up and fall down her cheeks.
Emi Sakata: “(But we made it this long right? We did more than I could ever imagine. It’s just the finances… they began to build up more and more. I made mistakes getting loans from people… i did things i really shouldn’t have and i had no choice but to sell off what assets of SSS were left to pay them. Words will never express how sorry i am for failing you all.)”
She bows deeply as tears roll down her face.
Emi Sakata: “(But rest assured, you will be in good hands with the new owner. Tonight is the end of SSS, but tomorrow is the beginning of J-ROK and with this new company it will continue on the legacy of SSS while forging it’s own.

Lisa Frankenstein: “So here’s to more creepy little goth women, more egg matches and more stables full of tits who don’t know why they’re here and don’t belong either. Fuck you, Eve. However many of you there are.”
Lisa takes a bow before handing it off to Bodhi.
Next to the ring is Bodhi, who casually saunters past the other girls at ringside. As of late Bodhi has not been the most popular backstage, with her erratic antics stirring up mixed emotions.
Bodhi scales the steel steps, taking her time to make deliberate eye contact with the girl surrounding the ring. They don’t like it, not one bit. She approaches the center of the ring, and takes a microphone from Karin, raising it to her lips but quickly being cut off by booing from the fans.
Kayako Kai:"(Boo’s for Bodhi, I’d never thought I’d hear that! She’s been so beloved for her whole tenure in SSS!)"
Yumiko Kanagawa: "(Sure, but as of late her and Boom-Boom have been so wild and vicious, and after tonight’s performance against Sakura Gun… I think Bodhi is done being the nice, playful doll.)"Bodhi scales the steel steps, taking her time to make deliberate eye contact with the girl surrounding the ring. They don’t like it, not one bit. She approaches the center of the ring, and takes a microphone from Karin, raising it to her lips but quickly being cut off by booing from the fans.
