“Behold My God: Syndicate!”
“WWX Legend Right Here!”
“Dip me in your tea Tommy!”
“Kingslayer” by Bring Me To Horizon and Baby Metal permeates the Xcess Center as the entrance ramp alights with a wave of sparks before fireworks radiate brightly in explosions all the way down to the ring, shooting back sharply to the ramp itself, as a wave of flame completes the process.
The camera pans around to a limited arena audience spread out amongst the Xcess Center.
Mike Hart: Ladies and Gentlemen! Welcome to Monday Night Ravage, Live from the Xcess Center here in Colorado Springs, Colorado! I’m here tonight with Gary Lane as we kick off the first series of matches for the Coliseum Cup Series!
Gary Lane: Thanks Mike, but with these matches comes a chance to headline for the WWX World Championship at Hall of Pain this year!
[scene transitions from the announce table to a display showing the first match: Xander Hayes v. Bootleg Dragon]
Hart: A new arrival to WWX, one can only speculate the craziness that oozes out Xander as he looks to get his first victory in the cup and in his storied wrestling career with WWX.
[scene transitions a new display showing the second match: Jake Devine v. Xavier Pendragon]
Hart: Two veteran wrestlers of WWX return and clash in the Xcess Center! With Jake getting the win at XHF’s Supremacy in quick fashion, can he pull off another upset at the expense of the former world champion “The Machine” Xavier Pendragon?
[scene transitions a new display showing the third match, but something is different, as it only shows the WWX International Champion Ashton J Riker]
Lane: Due to unforeseen personal circumstances, James Ranger has announced that Stuart Ratliff has been pulled from the Coliseum Cup. We here in the WWX, send our heartfelt regards to Mister Stuart and his family.
Hart: With that being said, all individuals in the same block as Stuart Ratliff earn a reprieve in the form of 3 points to their total score.
Lane: In essence, one wrestler a card will basically get bye in competing. But that just means they are free to cause trouble for someone in this contest.
[scene transitions a new display showing the fourth match, featuring Guru Kawa v. Jarvis Valentine]
Hart: After having won his tag team match alongside Jake Devine at Supremacy, can Jarvis prove he has what it takes in singles competition with Guru Kawa?
[scene transitions a new display showing the fifth match, featuring Tanno Waters and Syndicate, who is holding the WWX Championship arrogantly]
Hart: Despite not winning the XHF Junior Heavyweight Championship two weeks ago at Supremacy, he still holds on to the championship that he has stolen. Determined to make a statement at any cost, who will stop him in the Coliseum Cup?
Lane: As mentioned by Syndicate, he promises in pain to tanno and his matchup today, I hope Tanno can pull off a miracle.
Hart: He better pray to the gods, cause one of them is not gonna listen tonight.
[scene transitions a new display showing the final match, featuring Darkness and Krimzon Blaze]
Lane: A war to close out tonight’s series of cup matches, Krimzon is looking to rebound against the returning Darkness. After Supremacy, can Krimzon prove he has more to offer than being a warmup?

Ding Ding Ding! Bonn: This match is scheduled for one fall~! ('Ashes of the Dawn' starts to play. A man in an unkempt suit runs out from backstage, holding a briefcase. He pauses for a moment on the stage, goggling at the crowd, before his eyes land on a random fan, who he rushes over to and pulls them with him up to the stage. He opens the case, revealing what appears to be an old, damaged wrestling championship belt. He helps the fan put the belt on, showing them a series of three poses. As the music builds to a head, a voice begins counting down. VOICE: 3! The fan strikes the first pose. VOICE: 2! The fan strikes the second pose. VOICE: 1! The fan strikes the final pose. VOICE: TRANSFOOOORM! There is a flash of bright white light and smoke, and the arena goes completely dark. Kyla Bonn: weighing in at 270 pounds...hailing from unknown location....BOOTLEG DRAGON!! After a couple of seconds, the lights come back up to reveal Bootleg Dragon on the stage. He poses for the fans, before dashing down to ringside. He slides into the ring, heading to the corner to pose again.) open.spotify.com/track/131CoJHeYISmJiY8kpWoFdThe lights go out as the green strobe lights start to flicker and laughter is heard from the speakers as the music hits and out walks X in his black and green Chicago cubs jersey and Teddy in his arms Kyla Bonn: Introducing, weighing in at 180 pounds, from Chicago, Illinois... he hugs the bear and looks around he pulls out the glow sticks and starts to dance to the music and laughs as he dances his way to the ring, he stops and looks around and giggles and then continues on. Kyla Bonn: XANDER HAYES~! He finally enters the ring by sliding under the bottom ropes and sits in the corner talking to teddy. Lane: I for a better lack of words….i..i honestly have none. Hart: Here’s to hoping that Bootleg Dragon can best this mysterious...individual. The bell rings as Xander and Bootleg circle the ring, Xander stops circling and just casually walks to the center of the ring, raising a hand in “test me” kind of way. Bootleg Dragon seemingly obliges, commencing a show of strength between the two, that requires both of them to fully lock up. Xander takes a step back, followed by another as he is forced back by Bootleg’s strength, but he shifts gears, connecting with an elbow to Bootleg’s gut, causing him to double over as he follows up with a DDT, bringing the match to an early crawl as he covers Bootleg. ONE~! Bootleg kicks out, bringing an oddly slow smile to the face of Xander as he lounges next Bootleg, resting his head on his right hand, not bothering to get up right away. Bootleg rolls away as Xander takes his time getting up, both wrestlers getting up immediately Bootleg picks up the pace, faster on the uptake he lands a stiff elbow that only elicit a smile from Xander as he returns the elbow, then another, stumbling Bootleg as he whips across the ring. Bootleg takes to the ropes, rebounds and jumps as Xander charges forward, connecting with a crossbody tackle! Bootleg with the pin. ONE~! TW~Xander kicks out as Bootleg gets up to his feet, grabbing ahold of Xander Hayes, gripping him up to his feet. He whips him over the corner, following behind. He jumps! Lane: Rider Kick!! Xander falls face first into the mat, Bootleg Dragon goes for the cover! ONE~! TWO! THREE! Ding Ding Ding. Bonn: Your winner of this contest….BOOTLEG DRAGON!

Come back from commercial as Jake Devine and Xavier Pendragon
Bonn: In the ring, weighing in at 277 lbs, he is “THE MACHINE”....XAVIER PEN~DRAGON!
Xavier waves to the audience in the arena as Jake paces in his corner…
Bonn: His opponent, weighing in at 240 pounds...He is “The Idol” JAKE...DEVINE!!
He steps out and smile, approaching Xavier, he extends his hand, to which Xavier accepts the offer before they step back. The ref signals for the bell.
Immediately the duo circle the ring before they lock up, before Jake shifts gear, taking a knee to Xavier’s gut, before running to the ropes, bouncing off and connecting with a dropkick. He covers!
ONE!
Xavier kicks out, Jake hops up, waiting for Xavier to get up, as he kicks him in the gut once more, connecting with the King’s Style. He covers!
ONE!
TWO~!
THREE~!
The bell rings as Jake pops back to his feet once more, as his theme plays and the referee raises his hand.
Bonn: Your winner….JAKE...DEVINE~!

Returning from commercial break to Jarvis Valentine already in the ring.
Bonn: Introducing, 275 pounds, hailing from Omaha, Nebraska….JARVIS VALENTINE!
Jarvis stretches using the corner turnbuckle as his theme dies down..
Bonn: Introducing from Suva, Fiji…
The lights go out and a single spotlight shines at the top of the ramp as 20 war drums start being beat. They suddenly stop and the spotlight turns off then Cool Dude by Dale Oliver starts.
Bonn: Weighing in at an impressive 575 pounds….
Guru Kawa in full sumo position is now on stage as the lights come off. He removes his shades and starts laughing a bit and dances a bit on his way to the ring.
Bonn: GURU….KA~WA!
Once in the ring, he is seen doing a quick little prayer to himself, bowing towards Jarvis, before standing there patiently.
Hart: A man of honor...once again returns to WWX.
Lane: you make it sound like we don't have any men of honor in the company.
The referee signals for the bell. Jarvis, attempting a clothesline, that barely causes Guru to lean back. He takes ahold of Jarvis’s face, connecting with a headbutt that stuns Jarvis.
Jarvis foolishly charges forward, into the vice grip of Guru, who launches them up and down in a vicious jumping spinebuster. He holds position over Jarvis. He stares into the eyes of the ref as he begins the count.
Hart: Sweet Christmas!
ONE~!
TWO~!
THREE~!
The signals for the bell as Guru rises to his feet. He bows deeply as Jarvis regains composure but barely moves.
Lane; The sheer strength of Guru Kawa on display tonight folks!
Hart: Who will be able to topple this man?

*We've come back from commercial to see Tanno Waters in the ring, ready for his Coliseum Cup match against the Wrestling God, Syndicate.*
Hart: you don’t think something is off here…
Lane: What you mean…?
Hart: I mean just look at Tanno for a...
Bonn: The following is a Coliseum Cup Round 1 match scheduled for one-fall with a 15-minute time limit. Already in the ring, from Amsterdam, the Netherlands, weighing 162 pounds, he is TANNO WAAAAAAAATERRSSSSS!!
***BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!***
Hart: This should be a great match, Gary! Two men who have all sorts of problems from years past, and even though one of them has gone absolutely insane as of late, wounds in wrestling don't heal easily!
*Suddenly, a deep, calm voice rings out through the PA system.*
???: Brothers and sisters, thank you for gathering here this evening.
***BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO***
Hart: Speaking of insane...
*We cut to the entranceway, where none other than the Wrestling God himself, Syndicate, has emerged, smiling out at the enraged Colorado Springs crowd. Wearing a black linen robe, black denim jeans, and Under Armour sneakers, Syndicate holds the WWX World Heavyweight Championship - a belt he stole from its true holder, Tommy Lipton, many weeks ago - over his left shoulder, its golden plates glittering in the indoor stadium's overhead spotlights. Behind him stands his wife, Sophie Irvine, playing the role of "The Oracle" in order to appease her easily-enraged husband. Wearing dark round sunglasses, a black robe similar to Syndicate's, and a red dress with matching heels, she stands mute behind the Wrestling God as he speaks into a microphone held in his left hand.*
Syndicate: You may not realize it yet, members of the congregation, but in mere moments, you shall witness nothing less than a miracle before your very eyes. For not only has Tanno Waters been brought back from the dead, but he has decided to spend his rebirth performing for all of you. What a selfless, pure-hearted decision from a man who once almost single-handedly drove this company into the ground!
***BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO***
*Waters looks on angrily from inside the ring as Syndicate makes his way down the entrance ramp, switching his attention from the crowd to his opponent.*
Syndicate: Unfortunately, Brother Tanno, today's reading from the Gospel of the Wrestling God does not bring good news. Instead, it tells of a man who sold his soul to come back to life, a man that would do anything for one last moment in the sun. But when he received that moment, when he finally caught a glimpse of the sky...God recognized that the man was not where he was supposed to be and swiftly pushed him back underground to the final circle of Hell. He was left with nothing other than pain and agony for his crimes against the universe, a punishment he shall continue to endure for eternity.
*Having reached the edge of the ring, Syndicate slowly walks up the steel steps and climbs through the ropes, now staring Tanno in the face from mere inches away.*
Syndicate: That man could be you, Brother Tanno...but luckily, I myself hold the power to reverse that fate. I hold the power to save you from your own self-destruction. It's just unfortunate...that I can't think of a less-deserving man to be saved than yourself.
*He turns back to the assembled crowd, speaking to them directly now as Tanno takes a few steps backwards in the ring.*
Syndicate: Because this is MY world, brothers and sisters. I hold the Holy Grail itself in the palm of my hand, because Lucifer himself, Tommy Lipton, doesn't deserve to spend another moment with this in his possession. I rule over this company with an iron fist, and NOBODY will stop me from bringing the WWX, forcefully or otherwise, through the golden gates of Valhalla with the Wrestling God standing atop it all. PRAISE BE to the Wrestling God, and may -
*Before Syndicate can finish his sermon, Tanno Waters spins Syndicate around and kicks him in the gut!*
Hart: Tanno's going for broke from the start!
*Waters reaches up and grabs Syndicate's head, looking for the Ultimate Impalum, but at the last second Syndicate pushes down, slamming Tanno back-first onto the mat!*
***DING DING DING***
Lane: Syndicate counters it, and we are underway!
*Not wasting any time, Syndicate rebounds off the ropes and hits a staggered Tanno Waters with an Original Syn knee strike, sending a crack throughout the arena as Waters crumples to the canvas.*
Hart: ORIGINAL SYN!! Tanno's in trouble here!
*Taking a moment to smile down at Tanno, Syndicate kneels down and speaks to his opponent.*
Syndicate (off-mic): You must pay, Brother Tanno...you must pay for your sins against humanity...
*The Wrestling God swiftly grabs onto Tanno Waters's neck, locking in The Vault in the center of the ring!*
Lane: THE VAULT IS LOCKED IN!!!
*Waters tries desperately to reach the closest rope, but his struggles quickly begin to fade! The referee holds up Tanno's hand and drops it, testing for consciousness!*
ONE

TWO

***DING DING DING***
Hart: It's over! This match is over! Syndicate has made Tanno Waters pass out!
Bonn: Here is your winner by submission...the Wrestling God, SYYYYNNNNNNDICATEEEEEE!!
[Static takes over the screen. When the feed returns, we see Syndicate looking at the announcers.]
VOICE: Syndicate!
[Syndicate turns around to see Tanno Waters on the Titantron, a look of confusion is shown on syndicate's face as he looks over to the wrestler in the ring.]
LANE: If that's Tanno on the screen, then whose in the ring with Syndicate?
TANNO: Hey Syndicate, I'm terribly sorry, but I can't be there tonight. I have more... pressing matters to attend to. But, i hoped my stunt double entertained you...even if for a little bit.
HART: I knew something was off!
[Syndicate bolts over to the stunt double, realizing as the stunt double rolls just out of his reach and standing upward, he peels off the facial cosmetics seen only in movies, to reveal an entirely different face smiling at him.]
Hart: Syndicate is beside himself. Tanno legit tricked his way out of what was only the beginning of Syndicate's demonstration.

***CRACKKKKKKKKKK***
*Before Syndicate can continue, a man jumps over the guardrail and slides into the ring, flattening Syndicate from behind with a steel chair shot to the back!*
Hart: That...THAT'S TOMMY LIPTON! TOMMY LIPTON IS HERE!!!
***CHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEER!***
*Lipton pounces on a prone Syndicate, raining down with a flurry of stiff punches to the face of the Wrestling God!*
Hart: Tommy Lipton has had enough! Tommy Lipton wants to take Syndicate out of the equation entirely!!
Lane: Somebody stop this man!!
*As if on cue, James Ranger, wearing a pressed blue suit and with a production headset around his neck, comes running out from the back with his hands up towards Lipton, imploring him to stop the assault.*
Ranger (off-mic): Come on, Tommy, let's take it easy here, alright? The man's had enough, we get the picture!
*Lipton, seeing this, seems skeptical; he knows that Ranger and Syndicate are somehow linked, but he doesn't know to what extent. After a few parting shots on the now-bloodied face of the Wrestling God, Lipton stands up and grabs his rightful property, the WWX World Heavyweight Championship, which he holds up for the crowd to see!*
***CHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEER!***
Hart: Lipton's regained the World title! The World Heavyweight Championship is finally back in the hands of its rightful owner!
*Lipton, after taking one last look down at a beaten-down and unmoving Syndicate, exits the ring to come face-to-face with James Ranger on the entrance ramp. The two share some pleasantries, but their icy stares reveal their true emotions towards one another.*
Lipton (off-mic): Like it or not, James, I'm the real champion around here, and no amount of playing pretend with Syndicate is going to change that.
*Ranger chuckles.*
Ranger (off-mic): That may be, but even so...I still know who to hitch my wagons to.
*Left a bit confused by this last remark, Tommy Lipton turns back towards the ring...only to be met by a shot from a steel baseball bat to the head from a bloodsoaked Syndicate!*
***BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO***
*As Lipton lays on the ground clutching his head and garbage is thrown in his attacker's direction by the crowd, Syndicate cackles as he slowly reaches down and picks up the WWX World Heavyweight title, placing it once again upon his left shoulder as if it was truly his own. Taking a moment to look up at James Ranger, the two share a knowing smile before they, along with "The Oracle" Sophie Irvine, take a walk back up the entrance ramp and disappear behind the curtain.*

Hart: Welcome back to Monday Night Ravage! Unforunately, due to the attack by Syndicate, Tommy Lipton was immediately taken to the emergency room.
Lane: With that, Willie Steen was awarded the victory by forfeit, as Tommy Lipton, as you most saw, was in no condition to compete tonight.
Hart: With that let's get on to our main event!
The lights go out in the arena as "Whispers in the Dark" by Skillet begins to play.
Two lightning bolts strike the stage as Darkness appears at the beginning of the ramp.
Bonn: Introducing From South Carolina...WWX Hall of Famer....DARKNESS!!
Darkness slowly makes his way down to the ring and climbs up the steps into the ring. As he takes off his coat the lights slowly come back on.
The arena goes black, but a single white spotlight emits at the top of the stage as "Taking You Down" by Egypt Central begins playing.
"The Aerial Specialist" Krimzon Blaze is seen at the top of the ramp as fans become unglued cheering as Blaze walks down the ramp way towards the ring.
Bonn: Introducing...from Detroit, Michigan, he is the "Aerial Specialist", WWX Hall of Famer...KRIMZON...BLAZE~!
He claps as many hands as he can before giving a young fan a pair of his trademark KB glasses before entering the ring as green pyro erupts on all four corners as KB gives off his signature taunt being the double-guns.
He and Darknes meet in the center of the ring, the electricity in the ring is intense as the ref checks both of them.
Hart: Big fight feel between these two hall of famers!
Lane: When the prize at the end of this road is to main event at Hall of Pain, how can you not get interested?
The ref steps back nodding, before signaling for the bell.
Hart: And it is on!
Darkness and Krimzon immediately trade blows, before Darkness connects with a stiff elbow and knee combo that stuns Krimzon, allowing Darkness to display some speed of his own as he whips Krimzon to the ropes.
Krimzon rebounds as he ducks Darkness’s clothesline, jumps on the ropes to springboard crossbody tackle, but Darkness catches him. He tries to go for Total Eclipse, but Krimzon flips it into an inverted DDT. He covers!
ONE~!
TWO~!
Darkness kicks out!
Hart: Krimzon determined to put Darkness down.
Krimzon hops up and runs for the ropes as Darkness gets to one knee, Krimzon rebounds and connects with a dropkick, sending Darkness back down. Krimzon looks briefly upon Darkness as he sprints for the corner turnbuckle, popping up to the top rope position, jumping off with a picture perfect 450 splash, but Darkness rolls out of the way!
Lane: Brace for impact!
Krimzon bounces off the mat, missing his target as Darkness see this as a chance to connect with a lifting reverse DDT to bring Krimzon to a crawl. He covers!
Hart: Total Eclipse!!
ONE~!
TWO~!
Th...Krimzon kicks out . Darkness pops to. He grabs ahold of Krimzon, ready to set up for the Guillotine..
"The Last Dragon" by Dwight David hits, causing Darkness to glare towards the entrance ramp as he approaches the ropes, waiting for Xavier to come out, unaware of Krimzon getting to his feet. The crowd pumping up the fact that Darkness should turn around instead.
Lane: Watch out Darkness!
Krimzon pops to, connecting with the Kode of Silence, bring Darkness down as conveniently Xavier’s theme song cuts off. The ref slides over.
ONE~!
TWO~!
THREE~!
Krimzon hops off quickly, rolling away from Darkness and out of the ring as Darkness just misses grabbing ahold of Blaze as he runs around and up the ramp.
Bonn: Your winner...Krimzon Blaze!
Hart: Krimzon with amazing quickness in securing the win there.
Lane: But was Xavier really going to come out? Even if he did, he just causes Darkness his first match back in WWX~!
Darkness stands in the ring seething as Krimzon continues to backpedal up the ramp, celebrating his win.
