Gauntlet Match for the PCW Briefcase
Jay and Zara start the match off with a lockup. Lethal uses his experience to get the armlock before dropping multiple elbows down on it. He forces Zara’s arm around the neck and plants her with a belly-to-side suplex for the cover. She kicks out at one. Zara tries to fight back with a kick to the gut. She rebounds off the ropes, but Jay cuts her off with a shoulder block. He follows up with a stomp to the chest before yanking her up. Lethal slings her into the corner and races forward, but Zara leaps up onto the back and leans over the ropes to grab the legs and lock in the submission. She’s forced to let go by the count of three. Sabre times it right and uses the ropes for a tornado DDT as Lethal stands for a two count.
Sabre takes after her brother as she transitions into a submission, forcing both arms around the neck before pulling back. Sabre sits on the back, trying to tap out Jay before lifting him up just to stomp the back. Jay goes face-first into the mat as she rebounds off the ropes for a dropkick to the face. Zara looks for another pin, but he kicks out. She drags Jay to the corner and chops the chest, but as she races in for a forearm, he catches her with a spinebuster right into the corner. Lethal drags her out for the pin and she barely kicks out. Jay has her up and whips her into the ropes. She rebounds with a huracarrana, but he lands on his feet. Zara tries for a clothesline and he ducks under for the handspring into the cutter for the Lethal Injection. He hooks the leg for the three count.
Rhea is out next and wastes no time running in. She takes Jay down with a shoulder block. The blonde yanks him up and slings him into the corner for multiple clotheslines before kneeing him in the gut. Ripely looks to follow up with a running big boot, but Lethal ducks out of the way before connecting with a superkick as she’s trapped. He gets behind her and tries for a suplex, but Ripley powers out and gets the boot to the gut. She quickly follows up with a rope-assisted suplex into a pin. Jay kicks out at two. Rhea yanks him up and whips him into the ropes, but he leaps over the woman as she charges before trying for the finisher again. Ripley uses her power to catch him and drops him with a German suplex into the bridged pin. He kicks out again. Rhea doesn’t take kindly to that, choking Jay on the mat until the count of four.
The blonde drags him into the corner and begins chopping away at the chest before headbutting him. Jay is dazed as she sits him up on the turnbuckle. Lethal quickly kicks her back before standing. He leaps off with a dropkick to the chest. Rhea is up quick, but misses the clothesline. Jay springboards off the ropes with a moonsault and takes her down to the mat with a pin. She powers out at one, but Jay quickly transitions into the Muta Lock. Rhea is in the dead center of the ring, but rather than tap, Ripley digs deep to crawl and grab the ropes. Jay lets go, but he has her by the boots to drag her back in. She kicks him square in the nose and trips up the legs for a heel lock. Jay fights tooth and nail for the ropes. Rhea is up and grabs him up only for Jay to connect with a backhand strike. He goes for the finisher again, yet Rhea reacts with a big boot as he goes for the handspring. She quickly plants him with the Riptide to eliminate him.
Paige is up next and the two women lock eyes. Paige races into the ring and the punches start flying. Ripley gets the forearm to the face and whips Paige into the corner chest first. The Brit drops back to the mat and Rhea stomps away viciously before yanking Paige up by the hair. The Englishwoman uppercuts Ripley to create some distance before following up with a neckbreaker for the pin. Rhea kicks out early on and Paige slams the face into the mat before crawling onto Ripley. She grabs the face and headbutts Rhea multiple times before standing to her feet. “THIS IS MY HOUSE!” She screeches and the fans cheer her on as she continues her onslaught.
Paige tries to send Rhea into the ropes, but the Australian whips her instead. Paige gets the knee up to daze the blonde before hooking the arm for a corkscrew neckbreaker. Paige tried for the pin again, but Rhea kicks out. Just as she grabs her, Rhea quickly forces Paige back with a boot to the chest. She’s up to her feet and quickly reverses the clothesline with double chickenwing slam. Rhea follows up with a pin, but Paige kicks out. Rhea wastes no time slamming her fists in the face before slinging Paige into the corner. She drives knee after knee into the gut before getting Paige in the tree of woe. She kicks Paige in the gut before racing forward with a knee. Paige drops to the mat and Rhea shoves her out of the ring. She tries to get Paige up into a powerbomb position, but the woman slips out of reach from behind and kicks Rhea in the gut as she turns. Paige quickly slams the face into the ringpost.
Rhea stumbles away to create distance, but Paige is behind her quick and slings the blonde into the barricade. Rhea slumps to her knees before Paige sends her back in for the pin. Rhea manages to get the shoulder up. The woman gets Rhea up, looking for the Paige Turner, but Rhea battles her way out of it. She drives a right hook into the face to knock Paige off guard before driving her into the mat with the Riptide to put Paige away. The woman is stunned when she comes to and Rhea has no issue sending her out through the ropes. Rather than the next entrant, Priscilla makes her way out to pick at the pieces. She attacks Paige while she’s down before eventually planting her with a DDT to the floor. Security has to keep her back as they take Paige backstage for medical work. Priscilla still tries to attack her, grabbing at the hair as she shoves aside the paramedics. Paige looks to fight back, but Rhea weakened her and Kelly took advantage by tossing her off the stage. Security escorts Priscilla out as they check on Paige.
Austin Theory makes his way out, stepping past the chaos to enter the ring. Theory charges at Rhea and takes her down with a dropkick. He follows up with another dropkick before taking Rhea down entirely with a running knee. Theory quickly hooks the neck and arm to plant Ripley with a corkscrew suplex for the pin. She powers out, but he stays on her with punches to the face. Theory yanks her up and slings her into the ropes for a chop before trying for another suplex. Rhea lifts him up instead and dumps him into the apron. Theory lands on his feet and jumps down to swipe the leg. He slides back into the ring and sets Rhea up for the Unproven Cutter, capitalizing on her weakened state to eliminate her.
Theory prepares himself for Black as he takes his time approaching the ring. Before he can fully enter, Theory begins to strike down on the back, forcing Black to the mat. He kicks the abdomen before grabbing a leg to drop multiple elbows down on it. He then wraps the leg around his waist before twisting the ankle. Aleister is nowhere near tapping out and slams fist after fist into the back of the head. He drives his free leg into the face to kick off Theory and limps to a standing position. Theory races in, but Black quickly elbows him back before going for the clothesline. Austin reverses and gets behind Aleister only for him to counter and roll Theory up for a two count. Theory stops the momentum with a superkick to the jaw as they stand and connects with Half Nelson suplex. Black flies and crashes to the mat before Austin hooks the leg.
Black kicks out at two. Theory drags him into the corner and drives multiple fists into the body before turning his opponent around to kick the leg. Aleister is forced to kneel and Theory races in for the double knees to the back of the head. He rolls Black out for the pin, but he kicks out. Austin goes up high, looking for the splash. Black gets the knees up. Theory slowly stands as Black gets behind him for an inverted DDT. He hooks the leg for a one count. Aleister gets him up to his feet and whips him into the ropes. He looks for the finishing kick early on and Theory just narrowly ducks. That doesn’t stop black from kicking the legs, the sides, then catching Theory with a superkick. Austin is dazed, but standing, allowing Black to take advantage with knee to the gut. He follows up an wristlock into a swift kick to the side of the head for another pin. Theory stays alive.
Aleister lifts him up from behind, looking for a suplex. Austin lands on his feet and clocks Black for a left hook before folding him up into a packaged piledriver. He then quickly hooks the leg for a two count. Getting frustrated, Theory forces his opponent into the corner with multiple strikes to the face. He gets Aleister up high on the turnbuckle and steps out on the apron, trying for a suplex to the outside. Black fights back until Theory drops down on the apron before following up with a meteora on the apron. Aleister rolls him in and wastes no time with Fade to Black as Theory stands to end the gauntlet and win the briefcase.
Spike Trivet vs ???
First Blood
First Blood
Trivet awaits his opponent, but shockingly it’s Zara who makes an appearance. Still in her gear, she should be utterly exhausted after just having a match, but her eyes were focused on him with such intensity. He stared back at her, neither saying or doing anything. Then...the lights flicked until a few bulbs even burst. Glass fell over the crowd and ring. Sabre made her way slowly down the ramp, walking through occasional shadows where the lights shattered. As Spike looked on, he could’ve sworn he saw... Every moment she stepped between shadow and light, Trivet thought he saw... “No...no, he’s dead. Gone. Done...” he muttered to himself. Yet he wasn’t entirely convinced. By the time Sabre made it to the ring, her figure had slightly changed. The hand that grabbed the rope was paler, bigger, the fingernails covered with black polish. Zara’s face was ashen and their eyes were sunken in, turning darker and darker with every passing second. Spike swore he saw her torso elongate.
Another light went out and she was shrouded in darkness. Moments passed as Spike waited. Was she really his opponent. He took a step forward before immediately falling back as a figure lunged at him. The heel of the boot was in his neck, crushing his trachea as he struggled to free himself. It laughed—he laughed—and it was the most terrifying and soul-crushing sound he had ever heard. “Did you miss me, Spike?” Pavor stood over Trivet with a bloodthirsty grin and forced him to his feet. Pavor didn’t give him a moment to breathe as the bell rang and slung Trivet into the corner. Kick after kick with the heel forced Spike down in the corner. He was choked yet again before Pavor stomped his face. Spike screeched in pain and tried to crawl out the ring.
Nox had him by the leg and dragged him back in before reaching around the throat to stand him up. Nox slams the face into the turnbuckle before following up with a suplex. Spike is dazed, crawling anywhere for reprieve. Fear was sleeping in deep and he didn’t have the will to fight back. He just wanted to run as far from this monster as he could. As Spike turned, he thought he Zara again. She smiled and held out her hand. “Don’t be scared, Spike. I’m right here...” He held out his hand to her, but it was only Pavor who marched to him. Nox yanked him up by the arm and connects with a flapjack to the mat. Spike didn’t even bother to get away. He knew Pavor was stronger than him and he was proven right as Nox grabbed him by the hair and forced his head up. “First blood match...right?” Trivet gulped just as Pavor pulled out a knife and brought it to his neck. “Then blood I shall spill.” Trivet tried to scream out, but Pavor covered his mouth.
The man kicked and yelled under his hand, but Spike had nowhere to go and no one to help him. Tears were starting to well up. This was the first time he feared for his life. This was the first he thought there wouldn’t be a saving grace or a second chance. He saw Zara again. He knew it was another hallucination, but it comforted him nonetheless. She stood smiling, waving goodbye to him. He closed eyes as the blade touched his skin, Pavor’s laugh shattering his fantasyland. Only a second more passed before cool steel tore a line in his neck and slashed it open. Blood poured and poured, a puddle forming under them both as he gasped for air. His body twitched, fingers curling and uncurling as his eyes slowly blurred and rolled into the back of his head. Blood sputtered from his lips, covering Pavor’s hand. Even as he was dying, he could hear Pavor’s laugh right in his ear. Zara wasn’t there anymore. No one was except Pavor. The arena began to fade, turning to black...
Pavor raised a brow as Spike twitched and convulsed on the floor. His eyes were rolled into the back of his head, the drug clearly doing its job. Just as Pavor had lunged at him, he forced a special powder he was... Generously given to send Spike into a sort of hallucination. Whatever the man was seeing was practically killing him. The referee looked between them in shock before Nox stepped up and pulled out a switchblade. He nicked the arm just enough for it to bleed, technically making him the winner. He pulled Spike up by the arm and flung him over his shoulder before exiting the ring, the entire arena looking on in disbelief.

She drops a forearm to the back to slow Indigo down and shoves her back into the ring for the cover. Kelly kicks out at two.
Scarlett grabs the legs and stomps down on the crotch area before lifting Indigo up and over into the turnbuckle face first. Kelly is stunned as Bordeaux races forward with a splash.

Scarlett limps out of the corner and Indigo quickly gets her with a belly-to-side suplex for the cover. Scarlett kicks out at two. Indigo transitions from the kickout immediately into an armbar. She bends the arm behind the back as she shoves her knee into the back, eventually bending the fingers as well. Scarlett refuses to tap and Kelly eventually stomps down on the arm to break the hold. Indigo looks to slow down the match, kicking Bordeaux in the back before yanking her up for a snap suplex. She quickly transitions into a seated guillotine chokehold, squeezing down on the neck. Bordeaux still refuses to tap out, even as Kelly wildly shakes the head.
Indigo releases her, but headbutts her back down to the mat. Kelly steps out of the ring and grabs a chair from ringside, forcing the bell keeper up. Indigo slides back in and slams the chair down again and again, especially on the already targeted arm. Scarlett howls in pain, rolling around on the mat to avoid the strikes. Kelly hooks the arm between the fold of the chair and stomps down. Scarlett screeches as Indigo laughs it off, clearly enjoying her work. She forces Bordeaux to her feet and looks to whip her in the ropes, but Scarlett counters with a boot to the gut. She kicks Indigo in the leg, forcing her to kneel above the chair before rebounding off the ropes with the meteora from behind, face going into steel. She quickly rolls Indigo over and covers her for the pin. One...two....three! Bordeaux gets the first fall.
Scarlett takes time to nurse her arm as the referees make sure Indigo can continue. She starts to stand, but Scarlett wastes no time and races in for a dropkick to the side. Kelly rolls out of the ring to avoid anymore damage. Bordeaux starts to climb the corner, but Indigo is back on the apron and knocks her down. Scarlett drops down on her abdomen, stuck on the top turnbuckle. Indigo wastes no time hooking the arms around the waist and dropping back down to the floor, simultaneously lifting Bordeaux into a gutwrench powerbomb and dropping the back onto the apron. Bordeaux is still as the referee starts to check on her. Indigo pushes them out the way and drags her down to the floor for the pin. Scarlett kicks out at two.
Kelly lets out a frustrated growl before yanking Bordeaux up. Scarlett chops her back and starts to escape up the ramp. She limps, her back in pain from the powerbomb. Indigo marches after her, grabbing the hair before slinging her through the curtains. Taeler has to move out of the way as her niece spears Bordeaux into the wall. They crumple to the floor as the locker room swarms around to watch. Kelly is slow to her feet, but gets Scarlett up eventually with her. She tries to follow up, but Bordeaux has the will fight back and to throat punch Indigo. The woman chokes as Bordeaux grabs her and slings her onto a nearby table. The two women throw punch after punch, eventually standing on said table. Indigo knees Scarlett and tries for another powerbomb, but Scarlett remains ground and lifts Indigo up over the back, hooking the legs for the Scarlett Letter through the table. It shatters and Bordeaux crawls into the cover moments later.
One...two...three! Scarlett gets a clean sweep victory! As the referee checks on them both, Indigo slowly comes to. Realizing she lost the match, her face started to turn a shade of red, anger erupting as she kicks at the referees. She curses and hollers, despite being too hurt to even stand on her own. Scarlett is helped up and smirks, doing exactly what she set out to do.

Knight is sent forward into the set up table. Sabre follows up with a face slam on the table.

They slip in and attack, Vipress hitting Frankie with a chair as Corvus uses a barbed wire plank to Natalya. The champions crumple to the mat, but the attack continues. Vipress slings Frankie into the ropes and connects with a flapjack into the ladder. Frankie rolls on the floor in agony as Corvus is still tearing at Natalya with the plank. Cuts lined her arms and back, some of her gear even starting to rip (don’t be perverts). Vipress has to pull Corvus off of her. He lets out an inhuman growl and she slaps him. He freezes before dropping the plank moments later. “Stay focused...” she says as she points to the titles. He nods and they make the climb to the top. Melissa slides in and gets under the ladder before trying to push it over. “Keep going!” Vipress commands as she drops down. She tackles Melissa and they start to brawl on the mat.

She follows up with a knee to the gut and drops the woman with a front suplex on top of the ladder. Vipress steps out to check on Corvus, but Jenny is back in the picture and gets to the apron before flipping off with a senton to Vipress. The demon catches her with ease and sends her back into the ringpost before dropping her onto the floor. Frankie is up by this time and sets up the ladder again as Vipress looks for a table.

They throw punches back and forth before Frankie slams the face onto the apron. She climbs onto the back with the St. Valentine’s sunset flip to send them both down to the mat. As they’re down, Alexxis is finally back to her feet. Arisa is up, as well, and they both race to the ladder.

She fires up the chest with multiple chops before connecting with a running knee to the gut. Meanwhile, Natalya rolls out of the ring for another ladder. Blood still trickled down her back a bit as she limped to the short ladder. As she tries to bring it to the ring, Melissa rolls to the outside and tries to run at her. Natalya shoves the ladder into the face and drops it down on the gut before setting up the ladder between the ring and the barricade. She forces Melissa up and slams her on top of the metal.

Jenny has a kendo stick and finally gets back into this match with a strike to both ladies as they try to climb. She attacks the legs so they can’t continue before using the ropes to springboard and dropkick the ladder. Both women crash down below. Frankie lands on the ropes as Natalya crashes down to the mat. Jenny sets up the ladder again and starts to make the climb. She’s made it to the top and tries to reach, but a pale hand slams on the top of the ladder and she’s shockingly staring Corvus in the face. She tries to forearm him, but he grabs and bites the arm hard enough to make her bleed before headbutting the woman. He slams her face down before Vipress comes to his aid. She gets under Blake and lifts her up before dropping the woman over the ropes on Melissa and the short ladder. It crashes down to the floor and Corvus reaches for the belts again.
Alexxis is on the turnbuckle and leaps onto the back of Corvus. She scratches and claws at his face before he has to drop down. He flings her off his back and uses Vipress’s help for a suplex onto his knee. Alexxis wails in pain. They toss her out onto the apron and Vipress follows up with a spinebuster. Alexxis drops to the floor as Corvus tries to get to the ladder. Natalya is up and gets a Corvus down with a buckle bomb into the corner. She drives an elbow into the face multiple times before Vipress comes in. The demon presses down on the cuts and Natalya hollers in pain before she’s tossed into the ladder. The blonde fights back with a kick to the gut and drops her with a neckbreaker. She drags Vipress to the ladder she pulls the legs through for a Sharpshooter. Vipress is in pure agony, tapping on the mat. Natalya eventually releases the hold and starts climbing again.
Arisa climbs into the ring and climbs the ladder. She meets Natalya at the top and they battle back and forth before Hoshiki uses the string to hang as she kicks Natalya in the face. The blonde drops down from the ladder and Hoshiki looks to win it all. Corvus has other plans as he runs into the ladder wildly, screeching at the top of his lungs. Arisa has to hold on to keep from falling, but he runs into it over and over until she’s forced to leap off with a crossbody to him. Melissa slinks her way back in with a sledgehammer and slams it into the gut of Hoshiki as she stands. Santos drops it down on the back before choking the woman with the wooden handle. She kicks the back to force Arisa down to the mat before tossing the hammer aside. Alexxis is back in and they both nod before trying to climb the ladder. They reach the top and both try to pull the belts.
“Back off! I got this,” Melissa shouts. “No, let me get them!” They both y’all on both ends of the belt and refuse to let go before Santos finally just slaps Alexxis. The blonde slaps her back and now they’re fighting on top. Frankie and Blake double team them to force them down and send them out the ring. They both make the climb and stare each other down before clashing at the top. Neither could get the belts as Vipress shoves the ladder over. She sets it back up and starts climbing until Natalya comes in. They fight at the top, as well, but Natalya scratches the eyes before going for the suplex. Vipress lands onto the tables set up on the outside as Natalya drops to the mat. Corvus capitalizes and sends her into the ring post before climbing the ladder. Alone in the ring, he reached up high and unhooks the belts. The bell rings and he is declared the new champions with Vipress.

Phil is close behind and gets the knee before Tyler can rebound before repeating this action. He goes for it a third time and Tyler smartens up, bring the elbow up to knock him back. Phil races in again and Tyler sends him over the ropes. Tyler wastes no time leaping through the ropes and sends Jackal into the steel with a suicide dive. Tyler forces his back against the steel and drives chop to the chest multiple times. He misses the last and Phil shoves his face into the cell. He grates the face, knowing Breeze highly favors his looks. Jackal then slings his face into the ring post. Tyler is down and Phil tries to get him back in the ring, but Kross comes out of nowhere with a big boot around the corner. Phil drops down hard.
Kross ignores Breeze for the time being and lifts Jackal into a powerbomb position. Jackal fights his way out and gets the huracarrana, sending him into the steel steps. Jackal races forward with a dropkick to further slam the face into the steps before yanking Kross up. Despite the size difference, he drives punch after punch into the face and gets the back kick to the gut. Phil looks to follow up with a standing Sliced Bread just as Tyler runs at them. He kicks off the chest of the champion and plants Kross to the floor. Breeze still manages to get the advantage with a sudden back kick of his own. He slams the face into the apron before whipping Jackal into the steel. Tyler looks under the ring and grabs a table he rams the wood into the gut of Jackal before leaning it between the ring and the wall at an angle. Breeze looks to follow up using the chair, but Kross was up.
He wasted no time in attacking Tyler from behind and dropping the blonde on the table. It cracks and Kross forces Jackal through ontop of Tyler. Both men lie still, but Killer Kross drags Jackal into the ring for the pin. One...two...th—Phil gets the shoulder up in time. Out of rage, Kross sends Phil into the ringpost. The high-flyer drops to the apron and Kross steps out before shoving Phil’s face back into the post. Jackal is busted open, but that doesn’t stop Kross from following up with a Doomsday Saito on the apron. Kross lies still as Jackal crumpled to the floor. Kross slides off onto his feet and grabs Jackal by the hair, driving the face into the steel several times with the strength he had left. Breeze was slowly getting to his feet using the wall and slips back into the ring. Killer Kross slings Jackal into the cage once more just as Tyler springboards for a corkscrew crossbody.
All three men were down and the referee checks on them before starting the count. By the count of six, Tyler was up first and tries to send Kross into the ring, but the bigger man spears Tyler straight into the cell and the metal rips apart. Part of it was hanging off and Kross sends Tyler right through the rest of it. Breeze tries to create some space, but Kross is behind him and slams his face into the barricade. He lifts Breeze up and drops his back onto the edge. Phil is up to his feet and staggers out of the cage, building up speed for a dropkick to Kross’s back. He remains on his feet, but staggers long enough for Jackal to springboard off the barricade with a heel kick. Phil and Kross battles back and forth as Breeze tries to recuperate. Eventually, Phil kicks Kross with a roundhouse to slow him down before suddenly climbing the cage. Enraged at this point, Kross climbs after him. Once they’ve made it to the top, Kross took Jackal down, laying in punches. They brawl on the top as Breeze finally regains his composure. He starts the climb himself and as he reaches the top, Kross had Jackal high up on his shoulders. Tyler races forward and spears Kross, sending all three men straight down through the steel and crashing onto the mat below.
Everything was still. Even the crowd were in disbelief. The referee checks to make sure every man was still breathing before calling in paramedics. It looks like the match is over, but Tyler starts to crawl. The referee holds off the paramedics as the champion drags himself towards Kross and drapes an arm over the chest. One...two...three! Breeze retains the title. The bell is rung and all three men are quickly escorted out of the arena to be checked on.
