FWA CANADIAN TAG TEAM NO. 1 CONTENDERSHIP MINI-TOURNAMENT
The Tag Team Revolution
Vs.
The Push
It certainly seemed like The Tag Team Revolution wasn’t ready or even knew what to make of their opponents, two time AXW Tag Team Champions and rabid fan favorites, The Push! To the tune of their own recording of “Dance Pants”, The Push had charisma to the gills, the crowd eating up their straight out of the 80s and 90s dance moves.
In the ring, Jay and Mike just had no answer, seemingly caught off guard at every turn. After some tandem moves, Jay would be tossed into Mike, knocking him from the apron, before suffering a Push Comes To Shove (Doomsday Device) for the quick and decisive victory!
Winners: The Push by Pinfall (Via “Push Comes To Shove”)
Post match The Push would continue dancing, strutting and moonwalking around ringside to the delight of the crowd!
____________________________________________________________
We open with Solomon Graham sitting down in a chair. It’s clear that he’s in the backstage area, as he stands over a black background. He has a serious expression on his face, suggesting that whatever it is he’s here to discuss, it’s no laughing matter.
SOLOMON GRAHAM
What’s good, folks. Solomon Graham here, coming to you from the comfort of my home. I have a few announcements to make and it’s a lot to unpack. So, without further ado… here we go.
First thing’s first… The J-ROK//Lucas Swann situation: Look, this hasn’t gotten too outta hand yet, but seriously! Ognom showed up, tried to give Ed Justice the Loser belt, then cost him the unsanctioned fight between him and Weeaboo Jones. On top of that, Lucas Swann turned out to be right there, under our noses, in the front row. How we didn’t recognize him sooner is beyond me, but the point is that now the Professional Wrestling championship belt is in his possession.
I’m gonna issue a plea, one to Lucas and one to the owner of J-ROK. To Lucas, return that Professional Wrestling championship to Duncan Aries effective immediately, or we’ll come and get it ourselves, pal! And to the owner of J-ROK, whoever you are, I implore you to get your wrestlers under control. NOW! Am I understood?!
And secondly… the FWA Collar and Elbow Cup: A sixteen man tournament that will take place over the entirety of Season 4 of FWA, all to determine the next No. 1 Contender to the FWA Professional Wrestling championship and… there will be a $1,000,000 cash prize for the winner, with a prize for $500,000 for whoever places second. So far, we have but a few competitors signed up for this tournament, but we are working on the numbers. So far, the competitors partaking in this tournament are, as follows:
1. Devon Ryker; A newcomer to the FWA, who is set to debut very soon. He enters this tournament to prove to the FWA audience that he belongs among the big league players!
2. Jimmy Williams; A mainstay of the FWA since its first season, and someone that’s been around the wrestling scene for a very long time. He’s in this tournament for one reason: He wants that FWA Professional Wrestling championship back around his waist.
3. Lincoln Alexander; This young lion is currently down in SHW, which, if I’m honest, is kinda floundering. I wanted to give him an opportunity to really show what he’s made of, and as such, he is gonna be in this tournament.
4. Blair Sigma; Once again, another FWA mainstay. I don’t really need to explain why he’s in this tournament, because it’s self explanatory. But… before he enters this tournament, I want to make one thing very clear: I take full responsibility for not paying him the money he’s due. It’s my fault that everything’s gone down the way it has between me and him. Though, I have a small confession to make…
Graham smirks as he says this, before turning his head to the side. He then looks at the camera again.
SOLOMON GRAHAM
Blair… I purposely held out on you. Why? Because I’ve always wanted to fight you. Ever since the first match you ever had with the FWA, I’ve seen just how tough you are… but I know I’m tougher. So, now that that’s out of the way… I have a proposition for you, one you can’t possibly refuse.
See, I know exactly what I owe you, because contrary to popular belief, I’m not stupid. I owe you exactly half a million dollars… and I’m also not involved with that FWA Collar and Elbow Cup yet. So, here’s the deal: You and me, on our Canada Day Special on July 1st 2020… we will go at it in a 3 Stages Of Hell match all throughout the night.
Stage 1 will be… A Roadkill match: Basically, we fight in the streets all the while, various vehicles go speeding by. The only way to win the match is to throw your opponent directly into the oncoming traffic, and whoever gets hit by a car first, loses the fall.
Stage 2 will be… A Trip To Oblivion match: We will be fighting on top of a 10 story building, and far beneath us will be a giant body of water. First one to fall off the building first, loses the fall.
And lastly, Stage 3… will be that of an Electric Prison match! A tall, tall cage will be placed up, surrounding the ring, ringside area and touching the barricade which separates the fans and the ring. The cage will be 20 feet tall and electric to anyone who touches it. Weapons will surround the ring and the only way to win is by forcing your opponent to submit, by any means necessary. I know that last one is REALLY up your alley, which you might find ironic, considering it’s a Match Type that I created and have perfected.
What will all this carnage result in? Well, if you win, I will personally write you a check for half a million dollars. However, if you win… I gain entry into the FWA Collar and Elbow Cup, while your spot remains unaffected (because I maintain that you deserve that spot).
I will wait for you to answer this challenge Sigma. Honestly, it’s your call. Do you want your money… or not??
This segment ends with Graham smirking as we go to our next match.
____________________________________________________________
The Dragon Brand made their entrance, hyping themselves and each other up for their match. Ava would drink her gatorade, and Kiran would do some shadowboxing, all the while Wayne Graham would hype up both of his clients. The two of them get into the ring and await their opponents.
Then… out came Ian Dempsey, by himself, sporting one of his trademark “#D*ckKickCity” t-shirts, a blackprint with light blue lettering and an image of Dempsey’s face, which is smirking. He walked over to the podium, took the mic and talked about who the two mystery men could be.
“Could it be some faces from the past…? Or, potentially, it could be some faces from the future…? They could even come from another XHF Network fed, for all you know! Ladies and gentlemen, without further ado… the NEWEST members of the Apex!!!”
Then, out came Black Demon and a man, dressed head-to-toe, in all black. A black wrestling outfit, black boots, black gloves and a black mask, which totally obscures his identity.
“BLACK DEMON! AND MISTEEEER! EEEEEEEEEE!!!!!”
They waste no time getting into the ring, and the match starts off, with Ava as the legal person from her team, and Mr. E as the legal person from his.
DING DING DING
FWA CANADIAN TAG TEAM NO. 1 CONTENDERSHIP MINI-TOURNAMENT
The Apex (Represented by Black Demon and Mr. E)
Vs.
The Dragon Brand (Ava Cannon and Kiran Link)
The Apex won this match after Mr. E tagged out to Black Demon, and then low blowed the poor bastard, resulting in a disqualification victory. Ava and Kiran still had a great showing (for two wrestlers who aren’t Tag Team wrestlers) but in the end, it was Ian Dempsey and Mr. E, who stood tall, after beating the ever loving fuck outta Ava, Kiran and Demon, to make their statement: The Apex is BACK in FULL FORCE!!!
Winners: The Apex by disqualification (Low Blow from Mr. E (illegal man; The Apex) to Black Demon (legal man; The Apex)
Immediately afterwards, Dempsey and Mr. E cleared the ring, booting all three competitors to the outside, before Mr. E himself would exit the ring, and Ian would take off his shirt to wrestle. Ashlee wasted no time with fancy entrances. This time, she wanted to beat Ian and put him in his place once and for all. She entered the ring, championship belt over her shoulder, and handed it off to the referee, who called for the bell immediately after the introductions of the two.

FWA HERITAGE CHAMPIONSHIP
“The Franchise” Ian Dempsey
vs.
“The Technical Virgin” Ashlee LeCroix ©
After a long, back and forth contest, Ashlee Lecroix picked up the win after NAILING Ian with the Virtuous Sole (KO Superkick Outta Nowhere). Ian tried several times to cheat his way to victory, but it wouldn’t work, as Ash had a counter for almost everything Ian tried to do.
Winner (and STILL FWA Heritage champion): Ashlee LeCroix by pinfall
Post match, Ian threw a massive temper tantrum, throwing shit around and even trying to attack the referee. He took to the mic, stating that...
“The FWA, SHW, the IWA and the XHF can ALL KISS MY ASS!! One way or another, I WILL hold championship gold again!”
Before throwing the mic down in frustration and continuing to throw a temper tantrum... that is, until Mr. E re-entered the ring, knocked Ian out cold, took him over his shoulders in a Fireman's Carry position and carried him to the back.
____________________________________________________________
We open with the infamous J-ROK Wrestler that has consistently invaded FWA territory, “Superstar” Lucas Swann… who has the FWA Professional Wrestling championship in his right hand, behind him is a white garage. It appears that he’s at some kind of storage unit, or warehouse. He paces back and forth for a little bit, before turning and holding it up to the camera, all the while a smirk, unclear what it means in appearance, crosses Lucas’ lips.
LUCAS SWANN
Hello all!! For the uneducated and uninitiated, my name is Lucas Swann, and what I hold in my hands right now… is a belt. Nothing else… just a belt. A trinket… a waste of goddamn time, coming from a waste of space federation that needs the XHF to survive!
He spreads his arms wide open, turning slightly and darting his head all around the shot.
LUCAS SWANN
Look around, viewers. Solomon Graham can barely string together a single show without having a fit of depression and without having to rely on relics of the past! Talents like Blair Sigma, Liam Bradley, Jimmy Williams… even my own brother...
He pauses. It’s obvious that he cares about his brother’s well-being… and that he knows how far-gone his brother truly is.
LUCAS SWANN
...they are ALL being wasted. By an incompitant promoter, and his doofus Brother-In-Law. We, over at J-ROK, would take MUCH better care of them. They’d have opportunity, they’d have the world right there at their fingertips, and THAT, on top of other things… is what makes us superior. But no… instead, they choose to remain loyal to this glorified gloryhole of a company, nevermind that it’s one that would willingly employ Weeaboo Jones! WEEABOO JONES, folks!!! Think about that for a second… but then again, what can we come to expect from a r****d like Solomon Graham?!
Lucas smirks and laughs before looking back at the camera.
LUCAS SWANN
Though, you don’t need me to tell you that. Duncan Aries, *he holds up the belt as he says this* the FWA Professional Wrestling champ himself *he then lowers the belt*, has already. Your Professional Wrestling champion is not even remotely loyal to your fed, Sol. How do you feel about that, huh?? HUH?!?!
The smile that has spawned from the smirk then fades… and it’s replaced with a blank expression. Though, his tone of voice is anything but expressionless.
LUCAS SWANN
But then again… Duncan’s a big-time malcontent. It doesn’t matter where he is, he can never be happy with what he’s got. Not even this piece of trash…
He brings the FWA belt up to meet his eyes, rolling his tongue around in his mouth as he does so. He then looks at the camera once again.
LUCAS SWANN
Duncan… you’re not happy, are you? Not that I blame you, just looking at this belt reminds me that Solomon Graham runs this shithole company, and under his lead… this company is fucked and impregnated beyond belief. Not only that, but it reminds me of how much I hate the FWA, and of how much I hate you, Duncan.
He looks at the belt, pointing at it… before pointing back at the camera.
LUCAS SWANN
You, the broken down, piece of shit malcontent of a wrestling veteran…
He then taps his finger on the centerplate of the belt a single time, leaving it there.
LUCAS SWANN
You are the rightful holder of this belt… and I want to fight you because of my hatred for you, and I want to beat you. Not for this piece of plastic and pleather, but for the championship it’s supposed to represent. I want to bring Prestige to that championship. However… you haven’t taken me very seriously at all. So, what do I have to do to get your attention…? Hmm… maybe THIS will do the trick!!
He then lays the belt down on the pavement and walks out of the shot. When he comes back, he wields… AN AXE?!?!? WHAT IS HE---NO!!!!! He just brought the blade of that axe down on the centerpiece of the belt!!! AND AGAIN!!! AND AGAIN!!! He’s destroying that damn belt!! NOT AGAIN!!! AND AGAIN!!! That’s enough, Lucas!! That’s enough! No, don’t do it ag---NOOOOOO!!!!! He did it again!
He then throws the axe to his right, this time exiting to his left… he comes back this time with a Sledgehammer… and he continues to destroy the damn belt!! He brings it down, CRUSHING and CRUNCHING that centerplate until it’s broken into shards. He then does the same to the side plates, until they’re nothing but shards of metal as well. He then picks the broken, beat-up belt, and smirks. Clearly, he admires his handy-work a little bit too much. He holds the belt up to the camera.
LUCAS SWANN
I think this looks MUCH better!! Hahahaha! Now, Duncan, if you want this back, you’ll fight me in a match of my choosing.
Then, with the broken belt in his right hand and the sledgehammer over his left shoulder, all the while whistling “Stranger In Paradise”, he saunters out of the camera shot and we go back to ringside.

Vic Wheeler ©
FWA Television championship
Official for this contest: Edgar Brown
Time Limit: 15 minutes
The two men lock up, with Jimmy taking Vic with a headlock. Jimmy punches Wheeler in the face a few times, ignoring referee Edgar Brown’s warnings to open the fist. He then winds back once more and lays right in with a right hand that sends Wheeler reeling into the corner. He then continues to work him over, smacking him several times in the stomach, causing the referee to warn him to get him out of the corner, but of course, Jimmy does not.

Jimmy then gets him out of the corner and NAILS him with a Sit-Out Facebuster, before going for the pin.

2---NO!!! Wheeler kicks out!
Jimmy then gets Wheeler to his feet and tries to hit him with a Neckbreaker, but NO!!! Wheeler reverses it and NAILS him with a Euro Uppercut! He follows it up with a Roundhouse Kick and then an Arm Wrench Clothesline, before going for the pin himself!
1.
2---NO!!! Jimmy gets the shoulder up!
Wheeler then mounts Jimmy and repeatedly punches him, before headbutting him. He then brings him to his feet and props him against the ropes, before running to the opposite side of the ring, bouncing off the ropes and… JIMMY PULLS THE TOP ROPE DOWN, SENDING WHEELER TO THE OUTSIDE!!!
Jimmy then swiftly exits the ring, by dropping to the mat, then rolling under the bottom rope, before grabbing Wheeler, shoving him against the ringpost and… SWIFT CHOP!!!
Crowd: WOO!!
Referee Edgar Brown warns them both to get back in the ring. Neither of them do so, and as such, Edgar is forced to start the count.
1.
Jimmy draws back again and… ANOTHER CHOP *WOO*!!! He then draws back again and… NO!!! Wheeler ducks and Jimmy’s hand SLAPS the ringpost!
2.
He grabs his hand in pain, but Wheeler props him up against the ringpost and… MORE CHOPS, but this time, Wheeler’s the one administering them!
3.
Wheeler grabs Jimmy by the head and tries to throw him head first into the ringpost, but Jimmy reverses and sends Wheeler CRASHING into the ringpost!
4.
He then grabs him by the head and DDT’s him right on the studio floor! He then quickly re-enters the ring and waits for Edgar to continue his count.
5.
Wheeler’s seemingly down and out, but the fans in the audience don't give up on the champion.
6.
The fans clap for Wheeler, which brings him to life a tad bit as he places a single hand on the ring apron!
7.
Wheeler uses the ring apron to slowly pull himself to his feet!
8.
Wheeler then gets back in the ring, rolling in underneath the bottom rope and Jimmy Williams looks absolutely astounded! How could Wheeler have pulled that off?! It couldn’t have just been from the audience’s energy alone, could it? Then, in a moment of frustration, Jimmy continually stomps away on the champion, leaning on the top rope as he does so. Of course, Referee Edgar Brown steps in and tells him to stop, but Jimmy REFUSES to stop, prompting Edgar to start counting once more.
1.
2.
3.
4---but NO!!! Edgar Brown, himself, steps in between Jimmy and Wheeler and basically forces the two of them apart! Jimmy is now LIVID, as he shoves Edgar Brown, before getting in his face and telling him that “I KNOW THE DAMN RULES, OLD BOY!!!! STAY THE HELL OUTTA MY WAY!!” as the fans turn against him. Referee Edgar Brown snaps back that “ANYMORE OF THAT, AND I’LL DISQUALIFY YOU, DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME?!” but Jimmy shoves him out of the way.
Jimmy then grabs a handful of Wheeler’s hair and pulls him to his feet, before drawing back and punching him SQUARE in the face! Edgar goes to disqualify Jimmy, but Jimmy stops him, grabbing his arm as he goes to disqualify him. Edgar Brown tells him to let go, but Jimmy refuses to do so. Then, we notice that Wheeler has gotten to his feet. “Hey, asshole!!!!” he yells, and Jimmy’s head darts in the direction of where Wheeler is. Wheeler then runs at Jimmy, looking to strike but NO!!!! Jimmy lets go of Edgar’s arm and ducks, causing Wheeler to SMASH right into poor Edgar!
Wheeler stands there, realizing the magnitude of what’s just happened. All the while, Jimmy goes behind and… NO!!!! HE LOW BLOWS WHEELER FROM BEHIND!!! The fans have now turned against Jimmy, as in his quest to finally win some championship gold, he has gone too far and has become more willing to do whatever it takes. He then picks him up in a Fallaway Slam position. He then yells out to the audience “I’M THE PRINCE!!!” before NAILING Wheeler with the Fallaway Slam! He then picks him back up, obviously looking to administer more punishment, as he NAILS Wheeler with a Powerbomb, before following it up with a Neckbreaker!
We then notice that Edgar Brown is seemingly down and out, as he hasn’t even been trying to get up. Jimmy goes for the pin… but there is no count for quite a bit, prompting Jimmy to yell out in frustration… until eventually, Matt Noble, the junior official, runs out to the ring and makes the count.
1.
2.
3---NO!!!! Wheeler manages to get the shoulder up in the nick of time!! Just as the count is made, medical staff comes out to help Edgar Brown out of the ring.
Jimmy is now getting REALLY pissed off, as he gets to his feet and places his hands on his hips and paces around the ring for a little bit, presumably to come up with another game plan. He paces around a bit more (all the while, looking extremely frustrated), before turning his attention back to Wheeler and getting him to his feet… but NO!!! As he’s pulling Wheeler to his feet, Wheeler fights back with a series of body blows, before getting up and NAILING him with an Arm Wrench Clothesline!
Wheeler then goes for the cover.

2.
NO!!! Jimmy kicks out!
Wheeler then grabs Jimmy by the head and pulls him to his feet, before taking him in a Headlock position and NAILING him with a Running Bulldog, before dropping a Knee right on his back! He then drops an elbow to the back of his head, before picking him up once again and hitting him with the Running Elbow, before quickly following it up with a Superkick! He then goes for the pin.
1.
2.
3---NO!!!! Jimmy was so close to the ropes, he could get his foot on the bottom rope.
Wheeler is now the one getting frustrated, as he gets Jimmy back to his feet. He then NAILS him several times in the head, but it only results in Jimmy firing back with punches WAYYY more fierce! It also results in Jimmy shoving Wheeler into the ropes and NAILING him with the Uranage Slam!! He then goes for the pin one more time.

3, new champ---NO!!!! Wheeler kicks out just a little bit before Noble’s hand slaps the mat!
Jimmy then gets to his feet and goes out to the ring apron, waiting for Wheeler to get to his feet. As Wheeler slowly rises, Jimmy sits and waits, the frustration on his face showing clearer and clearer. Wheeler gets to his feet and slowly turns around, and as he does so, Jimmy leaps onto the Top Rope and NAILS him with a Springboard Clothesline… NO!!! Wheeler catches him Mid-Air with a Spear! He goes for the pin one more time!
1.
2.
3---NO!!! Jimmy just barely manages to get the shoulder up, just a millisecond before Noble’s hand slapped the mat for three!
Wheeler then brings Jimmy to his feet and gets him in the middle of the ring, before getting him in a Fireman’s Carry position. He’s trying to end the match. He goes for it, but NO!!! Jimmy catches the knee and pulls him in for the Kingdom’s Come (Tiger Flowsion), but Wheeler swiftly reverses out of it and… SUPERNOVA DDT (Front Flip DDT)!!! He then goes for the pin, hooking the leg!

CHEYENNE - Here is your winner, AND STILL FWA Television champion… VIC! WHEELER!!!!
Matt Noble hands Wheeler the Television championship belt and helps him to his feet, before raising his hand in victory… but, unbeknown to Wheeler and Noble, “The Villain” Liam Bradley, has slid into the ring, umbrella in tow and… HE NAILS WHEELER WITH THE UMBRELLA!! Over! And over! And over! And over again!!! He then tosses the umbrella away and resorts to getting on his knees and using his fists, beating Wheeler until his brow draws blood! He then picks him up and NAILS him with the Art Of Infamy (Argentine Backbreaker transitioned into a Knee Lift)!
The fans are in shock and they are fully against Liam now, as Liam takes the Television championship and looks at it, before hoisting it high above his head and yelling that “I’M TAKING THE CHAMPIONSHIP!!!!” before throwing the championship back down onto Wheeler’s chest. This is the image that closes out Episode 15.
