(Kylie finds Zed)

Zed: (sighs) I'm not babysitting.

Kylie: That's not why I'm here..

Zed: Than what do you want?

Kylie: (pulls an envelope out of her pocket) I was asked to deliver this to you ..

Zed: From who?

Kylie: Beverly.

(Zed seems surprised)

Zed: Bev? Couldn't she just text?

Kylie: It's complicated.

Zed: (takes the envelope) What's in it?

Kylie: She seemed to think you might be looking for a change. I believe it's..an opportunity..

Zed: (pockets the envelope) Thanks.

(Kylie nods and heads off)

FADE in on a video of cute lil’ puppies frolicking around on freshly mown grass. A very young girl plays with the puppies. The image darkens until the screen is just black. The screen then lightens but everything is grayscale and the puppies and girl are not seen. The little dog collars and the ribbon the girl was wearing are scattered amongst the remnants of Coat Rack Stevie Richards.

VO: “This is what a world run by Silver Eagle Jack Bullet will be like. No more cute puppies. Little girls are gone. Nothing but mindless destruction and anger.

“Jack Bullet hates kids and puppies. Keep them away from Jack Bullet. His action points are a danger to our society.

“Support Nick Fleming this week at Midweek Mayhem.”

Chyron on the bottom of the screen reads, in very tiny print, “No dogs or children were harmed in the making of this message. Paid for by the ‘Jack Bullet Hates Everything Committee, Nick Fleming-Treasurer.’”

FADE in on the Destroyatorium. Sitting at a table flipping through Twitter on his iPad is The Crusher Stan Fulton. His partner, Matt Folz comes in and has a seat across from him.

SF: “Hey. What’s up?”

MF: “Not much. Going over some tape on Bullet and Fleming.”

SF: “What did you determine?”

MF: “That if I’m smart, and I think I am, I’m going to let Bullet and Fleming knock the crap out of each other and then come in late for the pin.”

SF: “Sounds like a plan.”

MF: “What about you? Have you studied tape on this Trent Powers?”

SF: “What little I could find. His match last week and some indy stuff.”

MF: “And?”

SF: “What’s there to say. He’s a good ring worker and he’s going to use power moves on me. Which would be a mistake, but whatever.”

MF: “You don’t seem enthused by this match.”

SF: “I’m not. We’re in these matches while Juni screws around with the tag team division. He won’t sign any decent teams and one of the decent teams we had was in a Loser Leaves Town match. Does that make sense to you?”

MF: “Not really. So you own the PHWF. Fleming was there for a bit. What did you learn about him then?”

SF: “Hardly a thing. He was there for two televised matches and a handful of house shows. He’s a tactician in the ring. That’s about it.”

MF: “So no real threat?”

SF: “I don’t think so.”

Folz sighs.

MF: “I’m bored.”

SF: “Me too. Why do you think I’m looking through Twitter?”

Folz looks around the room.

MF: “Think we should go do something?”

SF: “We are in the Bahamas. Must be something to do here.”

MF: “Let’s go find you a date.”

SF: “No.”

MF: “All these gorgeous women wearing next to nothing... should be fun.”

SF: “No. It will be hours wasted. I’m a potato with arms and legs. Dilbert with a beard. Hard pass.”

Folz sighs again.

SF: “What is Jamie doing?”

MF: “Shopping.”

SF: “And Moose and Stank?”

MF: “No idea.”

Fulton sighs.

SF: “I can’t believe I work in this shithole.”

MF: “Really? Another old catchphrase you’re using now?”

SF: “I’ve won Catchphrase of the Year twice, dude. Don’t mess with the Master.”

MF: “You’re delusional.”

SF: “I’m also thirsty. Let’s go get some tropical juice drink or something.”

MF: “Sure, why not?”

[Fire-Babe]

Firewoman and Stank are sitting silently at Ric's and appear to be waiting for someone.

FW: I'm just ... you haven't really said anything since Hell on Earth.

S: What did you want me to say?

Fire starts to answer, and Shannon comes up, a flurry of binders and magazines.

SM: Oh good, you're both here. Gotta say, Fire, Lucas taking an interest in this stuff is really a blessing. I had no idea he was so romantic.

FW: Actually--

SM: So we only have a LITTLE bit of time before November 7, and we'll be in Iceland then, so I had to scrap the plans for the church in Atlanta....Gramma WAS disappointed, until I told her about the trip to Iceland, so she got over it quickly...anyway--

FW: Shannon...there is not going to be a wedding.

Stank/Shannon: WHAT?

S: Honey....?

SM: What do you mean? Do you not LOVE this man anymore?

FW: Of course I do....

S: Is this because your ex gave you his blessing so now you got to be all contrary-on-purpose just because--

FW: I am NOT contrary-on-purpose!!

S: Have you MET YOU?

SM: Fire...I just...maybe I need to leave you and Stank alone to talk.

FW: No, because I think this concerns you.

SM: It does?

FW: Lucas.....I'm sorry--

S: Uh huh....

FW: I know you want the big church thing with all the groomsmen and bridesmaids and thousands of guests and... and flowers and--

S: Uh, no I don't.

FW: --the big rigmarole, but honey, I've done that, and it didn't exactly go as planned, so I just want...wait, what?

S: Lisa, I don't need all that stuff. I was only going along with it because you wanted it.

FW: What? Whatever would give you that idea....

In unison, Fire and Stank both turn to look at Shannon.

SM: What?

S: YOU told me Fire really wanted this.

FW: And YOU told me Lucas did!

SM: Well I just...Um....

S: ...

FW: ...

SM: Look, Jared and I didn't get a wedding so I just thought....

S: That you'd live vicariously through ours?

Shannon looks down. Fire is angry, but Stank softens.

S: Shannon...thank you for doing all this for us...even though we don't really want that.

Stank kicks Fire under the table.

FW: Ow, what? Oh...Yeah, thanks.

SM: Well...okay...but Gramma still wants to come to Iceland.

S: Fire and I will research places to have a nice, quiet, private ceremony and Ma and Gramma can be there.

SM: Can I at least make the travel arrangements?

FW: ....

S: Sure just...don't go overboard, okay?

SM: Okay!

Shannon scurries off to do that. Fire and Stank look at each other, shake their heads and smile.

S: Her heart was in the right place.

FW: Her heart needs to be making up with Ghosthead.

S: That's not our business...but you're right.

They fall back into silence.

S: So.....what were we talking about?

FW: Lucas, at Hell on Earth, I revealed that Moose and I had been secretly working together to take over the OOWF, and while Matt appears to be okay with it, and Crusher is...well...anyway, you've not said--

S: Fire, it's fine.

FW: But I kept it from you.

S: You offered to tell me.

FW: And you told me not to, because you--

S: Because I trust you.

FW: ........oh.

S: .....

FW: .....

S: I just wish you trusted me a little bit more, 'sall.

FW: ....So where does that leave us?

S: *shrugs* I dunno, I'm hungry. Let's go eat.

Stank gets up and walks away. Fire watches for a minute and then stands to catch up to him.

A still black and white of Nick Fleming is shown on the screen. BRICK~! speaks in voice over, dropping his voice to sound deep and ominous.

BRICK~!: Nick Fleming has said a lot about Jack Bullet. But you know what he hasn't said about Jack Bullet? That he's a military veteran. Do you why? Because Nick Fleming hates our veterans. Do you know that 362 World War II veterans are dying each day in the United States? What is Nick Fleming doing to stop the loss of the Greatest Generation? Nothing!

A still image of Jack Bullet in the ring holding a U.S. Flag is shown and the words "Jack Bullet: A Better Man for a Better OOWF." In small print at the bottom it reads "Not endorsed by Jack Bullet in any way. Funding provided by the We're Guessing Nick Fleming is the Zodiac Killer Research Institute of Barstow, California - BRICK~!, Treasurer."

[Leo]

"Silver Eagle" Jack Bullet finds BRICK~! sitting in the lobby of a hotel.

JB: I want you to stop it with the ads. I'm not endorsing those.

BRICK~!: I know you're not endorsing them. Everyone knows you're not. It says that on every ad.

JB: Do you think people are reading the fine print.

BRICK~!: Well, Jack, you know the people better than I, you tell me.

JB: I've got a triple threat match this week against Fleming and Matt Folz. I don't have time to worry about what you're doing too.

BRICK~!: Then don't. You let me be me and you do you. Being the world champion is not a walk in the park. You think the schedule was rough being the Onslaught Champion or the IC Champion, it's four times that as world champion. You worry about the in ring and let me worry about the out of ring.

JB: I haven't given you permission to worry about anything.

BRICK~!: All in due time, Jack, all in due time. Let it roll, get through Wednesday and we'll see from there. I'll get some contracts drawn up.

JB: DON'T DRAW UP ANY CONTRACTS! I DON'T WANT YOUR HELP!

Bullet stomps off and BRICK~! smiles slightly he says out loud to himself: At least he admits I'm HELPING him.

[Fire-Babe]

Fire is walking back from dinner, probably thinking of finding a cemetery or something, when Shizuru comes out of nowhere.

FW: What.

SM: Ohhhh, there you are, <df>"partner"</df>. *looks around* I don't see any of your friends with you.

FW: So?

SM: Sew buttons.

FW: Huh?

SM: I bet you won't do anything.

FW: I won't because--

SM: Because your brother didn't tell you to.

FW: Huh?

SM: I know how it works.

FW: Are you this stupid?

SM: Fire, I want to win this challenge. Now, I know meeting the Muyos was too tempting, but this week we're against at least ONE person that you don't hate and --

FW: Sizzlechest, don't try to ... I dunno, give me a pep talk, get in my head, whatever.

SM: Or else what, Fire? Gonna throw me through some trashcans again? That will really tap into your little-girl fanbase.

FW: I'd watch it if I were you...

SM: Keep it up. Pretty soon they'll all be on my side.

FW: ...

Before Shizuru can respond, Firewoman has lifted him up and dropped him through a randomly placed table.

FW: You'd think you'd learn....

Firewoman walks away.

[snelson66]

FADE in on a picture montage of BRICK~! doing bad things during matches. There’s a lot of pictures to choose from. While these pictures are fading and appearing, a voice over sounds.

“This is BRICK~! He not only spells his name with a tilde and an exclamation point, he’s a bad anthropomorphic brick. He’s a cheater, a liar and a bad person.

“This is the type of person with whom Jack Bullet associates. Jack Bullet surrounds himself with cheats, liars and tildes. You know who Jack Bullet does not surround himself with? Eagles."

The images switch to pictures of Bullet and BRICK~! together.

"Jack Bullet doesn’t like his eagle. Jack Bullet must hate eagles. The eagle is the national bird of the United States. Jack Bullet hates the United States.

“This is not the person we want as OOWF World Heavyweight Champion.

“The OOWF should rid itself of Jack Bullet. Say No to Bullet. Say yes to Nick Fleming, your next OOWF World Heavyweight Champion.”

The ad ends with a picture (probably doctored) of Jack Bullet standing on the neck of his eagle carrying the old Soviet Union flag. The words “Paid for by the Bullet Brands is a Scam Committee, Nick Fleming-Treasurer” appear on the bottom of the screen.

[Sportsguy]

We fade in and see Matt Folz sitting alone in the Destroyitarium.

Matt: The passage of time is a bitch. I realize that's not an earth shattering revelation, all of us are well aware of that fact. But flying back to Green Bay for a 20 YEAR high school reunion on Saturday made me realize something. As I was sitting with P.J, Bock and the rest of the crew- people I were friendly with but not necessarily friends- looking through old yearbooks and barely recognizing our own younger faces staring back at us, I realized that Alexis Darling was right about me. Not about Lindsay, Jaime and I don't talk to her daily but at least 3 times a week. But the rest was accurate. I AM a jackass and don't even make an effort to hide it. And I do have a massive ego, we all should. If you don't feel like you could get in the ring and beat the World Champion any opportunity you get, why the fuck are you in this business? But this is the quote that's most relevant to what I'm about to say:

Oct 6, 2018 11:37:25 GMT -5 DevSop said:

Alexis: His problem is that he's very much only ever looked out for himself and the little bit that he can care about others is saved for Jaime.

Matt: That's for the most part entirely accurate. It's always for whatever reason hard for me to make friends. Even more so since I got involved in this industry. It's hard for anyone to make friends here because you never know who you could end up having to go against. Despite that, I can say that Stan and I are friends. And I at one point had another not just a good friend but a great friend. Someone who was my wife's maid of honor. Someone who was nothing but supportive to Jaime and myself when Jaime was attacked. Someone who helped me win my first Grand Slam. So I suppose this is where I'm supposed to apologize for my actions last Wednesday night?

Matt just shakes his head.

Matt: I don't regret a fucking thing. Actions have consequences and she paid the price for hers. I loved Mai like a sister but I specifically targeted her to make a point. It doesn't matter who you are, if you're not on the side of the Saints then you're against the Saints. And if you're against us, it doesn't matter who you are... if we feel like making an example of you than we will. And there's not a damn thing you can do to stop us. To quote a friend of mine "Enjoy The Pain."

[Zed]

Trent Powers walks through the Nassau arena leading up to MidWeek Mayhem when he is approached by SFJ18.

SFJ18: Can we have a word?

TP: ... Just one?

SFJ18: Okay, an interview.

TP: Why?

SFJ18: C'mon, you need to market yourself. Make people want to watch your match tonight!

TP: That's not really my thing.

SFJ18: Why not?

TP: Because I'd rather just kick Stan Fulton's ass.

SFJ18: See! That's great! Now say that to the camera!

TP: The camera's already rolling. Even if I can't see it. I know how this shit works.

The INC shakes back and forth in disapproval.

SFJ18: But seriously, you've got to feel good coming off your debut match?

TP: The one I didn't win?

SFJ18: You went to a time limit draw with the reigning World Heavyweight Champion and Nick Fleming!

TP: Yes, I fought so well I got replaced in the rematch by Matt Folz. Clearly I still have something to prove. Talking to you isn't going to change that. Excuse me, ma'am.

Trent Powers walks off, leaving behind a confused and disappointed SFJ18 as we FADE.

[Zed]

CONTINUITY NOTE: I don't know if I'll have an opportunity to post this closer to "actual time" so I'm posting it now. If it makes more sense for later promos to be 'before' this, be my guest.

Mac Flasher, Bridget O'Malley, and Kylie Mignolio are waiting at Gorilla for their show-opening match when Zed strolls up.

Z: Mind if I talk to my tag team partner, ladies?

Bridget and Kylie take a somewhat defensive stance, but Mac gives a glance to relax them and walks a few feet away with Zed.

Z: So, should I plan on actually breaking a sweat tonight or are you going to take a finger poke of doom for your girlfriends and get this out of the way?

MF: You know I'm always going to give 100 percent. Even if I'd rather just throttle you here.

Z: *smirks* Why not both, sunshine?

MF: Don't tempt me.

Z: Man, could you imagine the irony?

MF: Of what?

Z: If we win this tournament, win the titles, and you help me get my Grand Slam *nods to Bridget and Kylie* ... all starting with a win over those two?

MF: Fuck off.

Mac turns to walk off.

Z: Where you going, partner? We're going to the same place, aren't we?

Live! From Nassau, Bahamas
October 17, 2018

OOWF Random Tag Tournament – Round 1

MAC FLASHER & ZED vs. KYLIE MIGNOLIO & BRIDGET O’MALLEY

It was the best of wrestling, it was the worst of wrestling, it was a match full of moves, it was in the age of showmanship, it was the epoch of technical wrestling, it was the epoch of heelishness, it was the season of the Face in Peril, it was the season of the dastardly heel, it was the OOWF, and for Zed, it was the winter of despair.

Oh, and Kylie and Bridget got the win. Match TBEIL

STANK & JUSTIN SANE vs. MOOSEHEAD JACK & ALEXANDER DARLING

This match is not what anyone expected. After a brief brawl between Alex and Stank to start things off, it settles into an actual wrestling match, which is not surprising considering you probably have a combined 50 tag title wins in the ring. Moose and Alex co-exist for the most part, their hatred for one another, and the desire to murder one another in December, keeps them working together. On the other side of the ring, Stank and Justin show a lot of surprising double team work, though to be fair the double team usually consists of Stank throwing Justin at/on someone.

The end of the match comes when Moose has Justin up for the GTSF, Stank is moving to save his partner and Alex chop blocks his knee, as Stank falls, he elbows Moose right on the back of the head. Justin slips free of the GTSF grabs Moose and hits the DOUG HATES TOAST! Justin covers, Stank tackles Alex to the mat, and Justin gets the three count and the win!
WINNER in 22:48 – Stank & Justin Sane

STAN FULTON vs. TRENT POWERS

Powers faces an unenviable task tonight; taking down the Crusher. Powers uses his speed to an early advantage, but Fulton catches him and grinds him down. Powers continues to fight back, and even gets several near falls on Fulton. Fulton tries for a massive flying corner splash, but Powers moves, Fulton springs off the bottom rope and Powers catches him with a back suplex neckbreaker! He coves Fulton, but Fulton kicks out JUST before the three! Powers slams the mat in frustration.

Fulton would regain the advantage and go on to finish the match with a backcut/dropline for the three count. Match TBAIL

OOWF Random Tag Tournament – Round 1

AWESOME BILL FROM DAWSONVILLE & ALEXIS DARLING vs. SHIUZURU & FIREWOMAN

Bill and Lexie are announced first, and Lexie looks like she would literally rather be anywhere else in the world right now. They step into the ring and Lexie immediately heads to the corner. Shizuru and Firewoman are announced next and they make their way to the ring, the whole time Fire is staring daggers at one another.

Bill and Shizuru start off and we get some back and forth action as both play to the crowd. Lexie and Fire are tagged in and the tone of the match changes dramatically. Lexie and Fire, old friends and enemies, go nose to nose then light one another up with some BRUTALLY stiff chops and punches. The crowd is really getting into it, and Lexie is getting some genuine cheers, while Fire is being booed out of the building. Shizuru tags himself in, which does NOT make Fire happy. The two of them argue for a moment, which allows Lexie to roll Shizuru up for a two count. The end of the match comes when Shizuru breaks free from an ass whupping he is getting from both Bill and Lexie and tries to make the tag, but Fire is on one knee tying her boot and doesn’t see him. Lexie grabs Shizuru from behind and hits the DARLING DRIVER! Lexie covers, Fire half heartedly gets to her feet and tries to break up the pin, but to no avail.
WINNERS in 15:55 – Alexis Darling & Awesome Bill From Dawsonville

After the match, Fire grabs a dazed Shizuru and hits a FIRESTOMP, then leaves the ring and heads to the back. Bill grabs Lexie and lifts her off her feet in a big bear hug, Lexie looks like she might be physically ill as she pats Bill on the back

THE CIRCLE vs. ECOSYSTEM & MAI MUYO

The Circle comes out first and they are booed out of the arena. Shannon leads Ghost to the ring, but Ghost holds the ropes open for the Onslaught champion to step through. The Muyos are announced next and the arena EXPLODES. Mai is used to it, but Eco is still a little taken aback. They run to the ring and slide under the ropes and climb the turnbuckles and the crowd loses their minds.

The Circle immediately attacks and the match is underway! Shannon and Ghost throw Eco and Mai to the floor and they brawl for a moment. Ghost tries to clothesline Mai, but Mai ducks it and hits a release German on Ghost that drops him on the back of his head. Shannon and slams Eco into the Portuguese announce table, then rolls him into the ring. Shannon grabs Eco and hits a FISHERMAN’S SUPLEX! She bridges, but before the referee can even hit the mat to count, Moose and Fire hit the ring and attack.....Shannon! They put the boots to Shannon, which immediately draws the DQ! As soon as the bell rings, Moose and Fire attack Mai and Eco! The four brawl around the ring and into the crowd. Security quickly gets them separated and to the back before anyone gets killed. Inside the ring, Shannon and Ghost shrug their shoulders, a win is a win.
WINNERS by disqualification in 3:47 - The Circle


MATT FOLZ vs. NICK FLEMING vs. JACK BULLET

In an odd show of sportsmanship, the three men meet in the middle of the ring before the bell rings and they shake hands. What follows next is a classic display of wrestling. Fleming and Folz take mat work to a whole new level, while the old man Bullet keeps up with his younger opponents. Fleming has both Jack and Folz trapped in the tree of woe, opposite corners of course, and hits a running knee to the face on both. He covers Bullet, while leaving Folz hanging and nearly gets the three count.

At one point Folz lifts Fleming for an Olympic slam and Bullet goes for a superkick, but Folz sees it coming and turns so Fleming takes the kick! Fleming may be DEAD! Before he can dump Fleming, Jack hits him with kick to the jaw, Folz falls back with Fleming on top of him, he kicks out at two, but while that is happening, Jack is trapping Folz in the figure four! Folz fights to get to the ropes, and just when it looks like he might have to tap, Fleming recovers and hits a standing moonsault on Bullet for a two count. The hold remains locked in, so Fleming hits a standing moonsault on Folz and tries him, but Folz kicks out at two and Bullet finally breaks the figure four.

The match continues on and the crowd is really into it. The end comes when Bullet reverses a Fleming whip, Fleming hits Folz, who was on the apron, sending him flying into the guardrail, as Fleming staggers toward Bullet, Jack grabs him and plants him with a belly to belly suplex! Bullet covers and Fleming kicks out a fraction of a second too late!
WINNER in 49:28 – Jack Bullet

The referee hands Bullet his title and he stands in the middle of the ring, breathing hard, he looks at the title with a strange look on his face. The old dawg has lived to fight another day.
