MATCH ONE

The lights in the arena dimmed as “Rush of Power” by CF0$ blasted over the PA system. Fans cheered and booed at the same time, unsure how to react to the Mean Girls after being absent for several months. Summer and Eva sauntered down to the ring oozing confidence as per usual.

Corey Graves: Yes! The Mean Girls are back! I’ve been waiting for this for so long.

Joey Styles: Well it uh - appears that it’s only two of the three. Where is Sasha Banks?

Corey Graves: The night is not over yet. Maybe she will show up after all.

Once Summer Rae was inside of the ring, she sat on top of the turnbuckle in the corner of the ring and flipped her hair back, posing for the crowd. Meanwhile, Eva Marie blew a kiss towards the fans who booed. Summer hopped off the turnbuckle and walked over to Eva, where the two did their signature “Z” snap together. The music changed to “Crush” by Parkway Drive. Alexa Bliss walked out on the staging area, clearly unhappy about this upcoming match. Alexa made her way to the ring and pulled herself onto the ring apron. Alexa Bliss climbed through the ropes and walked to the middle of the ring. Alexa held her hand up at Summer Rae, signaling for her to go away. Summer sneered and took a step toward Alexa. Alexa backtracked to her corner as the ref kept Summer back.

Joey Styles: It certainly appears nothing has changed between Alexa Bliss and the Mean Girls.

Corey Graves: Does Alexa get along with anyone? She doesn’t even like her own tag team partner for this evening.

The lights dimmed as “Illest” by Far East Movement hit the PA system. The crowd cheered as Liv Morgan bounced out on the stage. She quickly ran down the ramp and made her way to ringside. Liv climbed onto the ring apron and hopped over the third rope, before rolling forward and staying in a crouched position. She swayed side to side until she noticed Eva and Summer imitating her and laughing. Liv stood up and started yelling at them. The ref made sure both teams stayed in their corners to decide who would start off the match. Eva Marie exited the ring as Summer flung her hair back prepared to start this match. On the other side, Alexa Bliss looked at Liv and pointed to the corner.

Alexa Bliss: Get out!!

Liv threw her hands in the air and walked over to the corner. She exited as Alexa turned her attention to Summer. Just then, Summer came into the picture with a big boot to Alexa’s face. Summer turned to the crowd and smiled as Alexa grabbed at her face.

Summer Rae: I TOLD YOU! I still got it!

Summer turned back around to the match. Alexa returned to her feet holding her jaw. She looked at Summer with disdain. Alexa lunged forward and knocked Summer with a right forearm. Summer rocked backward into the ropes only to return for another forearm. Alexa grabbed a handful of Summer’s hair and pulled her over to her corner where Liv Morgan looked on.

Alexa Bliss: Do you see this?! This is how you win.

Liv shook her head as Alexa turned Summer’s face towards hers. She raised her hand back and brought it across Summer’s face. Summer fell to the mat and put her hand on her cheek. Alexa looked back at Liv and flung her hair in her direction. Summer crawled in the direction of Eva who awaited the tag. Summer reached out her hand only to have Alexa raise her boot and placed it on Summer’s hand. She stood on top of the hand and shook her head at Eva. Alexa stomped down on Summer’s hand. Summer rolled to the side screaming in pain as she held her hand. Alexa walked over to Summer and pulled her back up by her hair. Once on her feet, Summer knocked Alexa’s hand away and spins around. She brought her foot up again and smashed Alexa’s face with a heel-kick. Summer and Alexa crashed to the ground. Summer clawed her way over to Eva while Alexa returned to her feet. Alexa turned and moved toward Summer who reached out at the last second. Eva and Summer’s hands connect and Eva emerges into the ring.

Corey Graves: Things are about to pick up. Eva’s fresh in there!

Eva bum rushed Alexa with a clothesline. Alexa crashed to the ground and quickly returned to her feet. Eva met with Alexa with another clothesline, knocking the former EBWF Women’s Champion to the mat. Alexa returned to her feet again. This time, Eva jumped up and delivered a dropkick to Alexa’s jaw. The crowd’s excitement picked up as Eva continued on a roll against Alexa Bliss. Alexa crawled over to one of the neutral turnbuckles and climbed her way back to her feet. Eva moved in on Alexa only to be met with Alexa’s boot. Eva backed up slightly from the shock. Alexa took this moment as she lunged forward and tackled Eva to the mat. Liv stomped on the mat with her hand extended eagerly. Alexa looked at Liv as the crowd began to scream. Eva worked her way over to her corner and tagged in Summer Rae. As Summer moved in, Alexa jumped forward and made the tag to Liv Morgan.

Joey Styles: Alexa tagged in Liv!!

Corey Graves: I guess former Moonlight Dollz CAN still work together.

Liv came in with all the momentum as she dropped Summer with clothesline. She rushed over to the opposing corner and rammed her shoulder into Eva’s midsection, knocking her to the ground. Liv turned back around and ran at Summer. She blew past her and bounced off the ropes. Before Summer could turn around to meet Liv, she jumped onto Summer’s shoulder and took her down with a bulldog. The EBWF Universe erupted along with Liv who screamed aloud. Liv turned and waited for Summer to return to get feet. Liv wrapped her arms around Summer and hit her with a strong belly-to-belly suplex. Liv quickly went in for the pin.

1… 2..

Eva Maria jump on Liv’s back. The ref stopped the count and immediately started to get Eva out of the ring. The number one contender paid little attention to the referee as she picked Liv off of Summer Rae and kicked her in the midsection. Liv doubled over and fell to one knee. Summer returned to her feet and smashed her forearm in the middle of Liv’s back. Alexa stood on the apron and watched as Liv got double teamed in the middle of the ring. Slowly the ref managed to back Eva up into her corner. She exited the ring as Summer reached down and grabbed Liv by the hair. She drug her over to The Mean Girls’ corner and tagged in Eva. Eva Marie entered the ring and took over the attack on Liv. She slapped Liv across the face and started to smack talk her. Eva slapped her again. Liv stiffened up a bit. Eva reached back and slapped Liv a third time. Liv snapped her head back and looked at Eva. The crowd cheered as Eva looked shocked. Eva brought her hand back for a fourth time. This time, Liv got her arm up and blocked the slap. Liv smashed her forearm into Eva’s gut. Eva doubled over for a second. She moved in again but this time Liv met her again with another forearm. Liv jumped back to her feet and jumped into the air. She wrapped her arm around Eva’s head and dropped back against the mat. Eva’s head drilled the mat.

Corey Graves: This could be the opening Liv needs.

The crowd cheered as Liv looked at Alexa who had her hand extended. Liv crawled her way to corner. She reached out to tag Alexa. The energy of the crowd dropped and the cheers turned to boos as Alexa Bliss dropped off the apron. She shook her head and stared at Liv who sunk into the corner and looked at Alexa confused. Alexa flipped up her hand and turned to leave.

Liv: What the hell ya doin’, yo?

Alexa Bliss didn’t respond to Liv. She simply walked around the ring and up the ramp. The crowd booed even louder.

Joey Styles: Alexa Bliss is walking out on her partner!

Corey Graves: I told you these two would never be friends again.

Joey Styles: The EBWF Universe is irate.

Eva Marie tagged in Summer Rae. Summer entered the ring and rushed over to Liv. Summer plowed her knees into the back of Liv’s neck. Liv’s head bounced off the middle turnbuckle and snapped back. Summer grabbed Liv by the head and yanked her back into the middle of the ring. Summer tucked Liv’s head under her arm and smiled. She flipped her hair before delivering the Summer Crush to Liv. Summer transitioned quickly into the pinfall.

1… 2… 3…

Summer jumped up to her feet as Eva joined her in the ring. The ref held up their hands in victory. Summer and Eva hugged and jumped up and down together. They both looked down at Liv Morgan and talked some smack towards her. Eva looked over to the steel steps. She gave the nod to Summer who lifted Liv up and threw her through the ropes. Liv bounced through the ropes with her back smacking off the edge of the apron. She fell to ringside as The Mean Girls exited the ring and joined Liv. The two women picked Liv up by the hair, one on either side of her. The looked over at the steel and gripped the hem of Liv’s tights. Together, Summer and Eva ran forward and threw Liv Morgan at full speed into the steps.

Joey Styles: They just threw her into the unforgiving steel. How could they do that to a fellow woman?

Corey Graves: The Mean Girls only care about themselves Styles. When is everyone going to learn. Eva and Summer are just showing the World that The Mean Girls are still the most dominating force in the Women’s Division.

Summer and Eva stood over the nearly lifeless Liv and continued to talk their smack. “Rush of Power” blasted back onto the sound system as the EBWF Universe showered Summer and Eva with boos. Cameras faded to a commercial break.

SEGMENT

The camera cut backstage, where Summer Rae and Eva Marie were heading back to their locker room, looking awfully proud of themselves.

Summer Rae: Now that was just too easy! Not that that’s a surprise or anything.

Eva Marie: Right? I didn’t even break a sweat.

Summer Rae: As if that was going to happen anyway. We don’t sweat. Ever.

As Summer and Eva continued walking down the hallway, a voice could be heard off camera.

Noam Dar: Aw christ, Tyler pal. We’ve hit the jackpot mate...hang on. What am a sayin’? Awright’ Ladies, seems you’ve hit the jackpot aye?

The camera cut to Noam Dar and Tyler Breeze, who were stood further down the hallway. Noam was staring at Summer and Eva intensely. Tyler raised a finger to his lips, trying to subtly tell Noam to shush. He then approached Summer and Eva and put on his most charming smile.

Tyler Breeze: Summer. Eva. Congratulations on your victory. Noam and I were very impressed.

Noam nodded in Tyler’s direction and turned back to Summer and Eva with a smile.

Noam Dar: Oh aye a was. A was watchin’ ye’ every move!

Tyler turned his attention to Summer Rae.

Tyler Breeze: Your hair looks lovely, Summer. Not a hair out of place. You wouldn’t think you’d just wrestled a match. Maybe we can take a celebration selfie? Put it on Instagram and remind the world how… gorgeous… we are?

Summer Rae teased her hair with her fingers and smiled proudly, completely soaking up Tyler’s compliment.

Summer Rae: I’m so glad someone else noticed! Of course I’d LOVE to take a selfie with someone as good looking as you!

Summer leaned in closer to Tyler Breeze and made herself right at home up against him. Noam rubbed his hands together and slyly licked his lips.

Noam Dar: Speakin’ a’ hair. Hey Eva, ye’ just dyed ye hair aye? Tell me, is the downstairs still spittin’ hot fire or wha’?

Summer and Tyler had just taken their selfie when Noam spoke to Eva. Upon hearing what Noam had said, Tyler’s face dropped, as did Eva’s.

Eva Marie: Excuse me?! What did you just say to me, you little--

Summer stopped Eva from attacking the Scottish Supernova.

Summer Rae: Whoa, whoa, whoa! Listen Tyler, you’re pretty hot and all but your little friend is… well, he’s freaking Eva out. Does he keep his mouth shut? Maybe he can just sit there and.. look pretty?

Noam’s smile dropped.

Noam Dar: Aye am fuckin’ adorable. Plenty of thins’ a can do with ma’ mouth instead...if ye catch ma’ drift?

Eva Marie: What is that supposed to mean?

Summer Rae: I don’t even understand what he’s saying...

Noam directed a wink towards Eva. Tyler nudged Noam in the ribs.

Tyler Breeze: I think what Noam is trying to say is… you had a great match tonight, and we’d like to celebrate your victory with you. Maybe we can go for a drink after the show? The first round is on me.

Summer perked up, obviously eager to go out for the night with Tyler Breeze. Eva Marie didn’t seem to share Summer’s excitement, instantly shaking her head no. Summer nudged Eva with her arm to get her to stop.

Summer Rae: Mmm, I’d love to! What do you say, Eva? If Noam promises to be good…? Will you come with us?

Eva Marie: Ugh. Do I have to?

Noam rolls his eyes.

Noam Dar: Aye, I’ll be on ma’ best behaviour. I only act like a dick cos a propa’ fancy you Eva.

Summer Rae: Awww, see? He promises! Come on, Eva. Just one drink!

Eva Marie: Fine. One drink. I guess I can’t blame him for being in awe.

Noam smiled. Summer smiled and locked both of her hands around one of Tyler’s arms.

Noam Dar: Plus a really wanna find oot if the drapes match the curtains or no.

Eva’s expression changed quickly. No one had the time to speak up before Eva winded back and slapped Noam across the face. Summer and Tyler’s eyes widened as Eva turned away, making sure her hair brushed in Noam’s face as well before storming off. Summer sighed and looked at Tyler, disappointed.

Summer Rae: I guess another time then. I have to go check on my girl. Sorry..

Summer glared at Noam Dar before she turned and walked off after Eva Marie. Tyler watched her walk away, shaking his head in dismay.

Tyler Breeze: We’ve got to teach you how to talk to women.

The camera cut to the ring for the next match.

MATCH TWO

EBWF came back from commercial with Alex Riley and Finn Balor already in the ring.

Joey Styles: Welcome back to Warfare. It looks like the leader of the Bullet Club has come out here alone tonight.

Corey Graves: Probably for the best where A-Ri is concerned. If the Bullet Club meddles in this match the Varsity Club probably won't be far behind.

The bell rang and Riley and Balor locked up. Balor hit the ropes, but Riley floored him with a running shoulder block. Riley locked in a top wrist lock. Balor flipped out of it and locked in a side headlock. Riley hit the ropes, but Balor took him over with a Japanese arm drag. Riley transitioned into a head scissors, and Balor attempted a backslide, but Riley sat out. Balor almost locked in the sleeper, but Riley rolled out of the ring.

Corey Graves: Riley taking a well-deserved breather here.

The referee started counting and Riley came back in under the ropes at 5. Balor took Riley over with a headlock takeover. Balor popped up and dropkicked Riley in the face. Top rope basement back elbow by Balor. Riley rolled to the outside. Balor called for 1916, but Riley caught Balor with a head kick before he made it through the ropes. Balor stumbled and Riley followed up with the diving somersault neckbreaker before going for the cover. 1...2...

Joey Styles: Riley's got the tights!

3!

Corey Graves: It doesn't matter! This one is over. Alex Riley has a win over Finn Balor!

SEGMENT

BWF Warfare returned from commercial break and the lights immediately dimmed down.

Joey Styles: What is this?!

On the ramp, four men in three piece suits appeared, carrying an elegant gold throne on their shoulders. The crowd gave a mixed reaction as the men silently walked down to the ring.

Corey Graves: I have no idea, Joey. I will tell you this, whatever it is I have a feeling it's going to be spectacular.

The four men ascended the steps and lifted the regal throne over the top ropes. The crowd did not know how to react to this entire spectacle as the men placed the throne down in the center of the ring, assuming guard stances behind it. The tron lit up as some music played out of the speakers.



Corey Graves: Ohhhh, Joey! Can it be?! Are we going to be addressed by the Women's Champion? The Queen?!

The EBWF Universe soured into boos as the EBWF Women's Champion, Natalya, walked out from behind the curtain. Wearing a black power suit with a pink blouse underneath, Natalya had the Championship over her shoulder. She had her blonde and pink hair neatly tied back in a ponytail. She gave a confident smile to the booing crowd as she headed down the ramp.

Joey Styles: Well this is quite the grandiose display if I've ever seen it.

Corey Graves: It's a pittance compared to what this woman deserves, Joey! Just shut up and enjoy it.

Natalya got up to the apron, and one of the well-dressed bodyguards sat down on the ring rope to afford her easier entry into the squared circle. She stepped into the ring and raised her EBWF Women's Championship high into the air, putting it on display for the entire crowd to see.

Joey Styles: WrestleMania has come and gone, Natalya successfully defended her Women's Championship against a very game Liv Morgan.

Corey Graves: No doubt that Liv Morgan impressed a lot of people, and opened up a lot of eyes. She may be the future of this Women's Division, but the present is here right now, showing us why she is at the top of the mountain.

Natalya backed up and sat down on the throne that her guards had brought into the ring. She crossed her legs and draped the title across her lap. With a flick of her wrist, one of the men quickly exited the ring to obtain a microphone from a ringside technician. He brought it to the ring and handed it to the Women's Champion. The crowd rained boos down on the pageantry of Natalya's entrance. As if utterly oblivious to the sound of jeers coming from the fans, she smiled brightly.

Natalya: If any of you needed a reminder as to what a champion looks like, look. no. further.

She outstretched her hands, soaking in the "adulation".

Natalya: After a week of celebrating, attending media events, and carrying this company on my back, I decided to come down here to this one horse town to make sure none of you forget who YOUR champion is. After all, clearly none of you deserve me. But that's just the kind of winner I am. I avail myself to the plebians so they have something to aspire to. Case in point, after weeks of badgering, harassment and criminal activity on her part, I finally agreed to give a title shot to Liv. Morgan.

Nattie rolled her eyes as the crowd cheered for the former number one contender for her title.

Joey Styles: The crowd showing their appreciation for a hard fought battle by Liv Morgan.

Natalya: Poor little thing. She did everything she could. Tried to destroy my car, get in my head, AND make the match a stipulation that is outside my comfort zone. What happened? She still couldn't get the job done.

The crowd booed at her lack of respect for her opponent.

Natalya: Which means that the EBWF Universe has been treated with the delight of enjoying me as your Queen. And let me tell you something, I am going to be the Queen of this Women's Division for as long as I want to be. I see nobody out there that can stop me. I mean, let's face it. Who is this next contender? Eva Marie?

Natalya placed her hand on her chest and dramatically chuckled.

Natalya: As. If. She'll find out soon enough that it's going to take more than dying your hair a different color to suddenly be a viable contender for MY championship. But no, that's not what I'm here to talk about. I'm here to discuss a topic that has dogged me for years and years.

Joey Styles: I can't wait.

Corey Graves: Let the Queen speak, plebian!

Natalya: Ever since I was a little girl, I have grown up idolizing my family. The Hart family. It's a bloodline of wrestling royalty that takes back to the forties, when my grandfather Stu Hart cut his teeth by wrestling grizzly bears and tigers. He created a wrestling dynasty unparalleled in its size and influence. His sons and daughters all grew up in the wrestling business and many like my father Jim the Anvil Neidhart, and my uncles Owen and Bret Hart acheived superstardom in wrestling. I have watched these larger than life men take the wrestling business by the throat. They all made their marks on this business and I always hoped to be one of them. As a woman and a third generation wrestler, the burden on me was pretty high. Look at me now, though. I rose to the challenge, I broke the mold and I shattered the glass ceiling. There can be no doubt that I am the greatest Women's Champion that this company has ever SEEN.

Joey Styles: That seems disrespectful.

Corey Graves: Silence!

Natalya: Over this last week as I've gone over the match with Liv Morgan in my head, I've come to a realization. I've got a lot to be thankful for when it comes to my family. The pink highlights in my hair are an homage to the Hart Foundation that took over professional wrestling in the nineties. They paved the way for me to be where I am tonight. But here, with this Women's Championship in my lap, I can tell you something with the utmost confidence.

She paused, looking over the crowd with a sinister smirk.

Natalya: I have outdone everyone in my so-called "family". The level of success that I've attained has not been BECAUSE of my Hart family lineage, it's been in SPITE of my Hart family lineage. Every so called "women's wrestler" who marches out here and faces me in the ring loves to talk about how I rely on my family to get where I'm at. That my bloodline affords me opportunities not given to others.

Natalya, now agitated, stood up and put the belt over her shoulder.

Natalya: I am tired of being perceived as the echo of the Hart family voice. I am done living in their shadow. Tonight, I am here to tell you that I am DISOWNING my entire family.

Joey Styles: What in the hell?!

Corey Graves: Is she serious? Can she do that?!

Natalya: Every single member of the Hart family that came before me became some type of albatross, forcing me down this narrow idea of what a Hart should look like. What a Hart should talk like. Well tonight I am DONE with all of that. I have risen above them all, and have become my own woman now. My name is Natalya, and I am YOUR EBWF Women's Champion. I am the Iron Maiden of the EBWF, and your Queen! But most importantly of all, I am a Hart... no more.

Nattie kicked over the throne and raised her championship belt in the air, the boos raining down on her as she threw the mic out to the ringside area. "Missile" by Dorothy played out of the speakers again as she made her exit.

Joey Styles: What just happened?

Corey Graves: I guess Natalya just renounced her status as a member of the Hart family dynasty. I have to tell you that's a surprising move, but Natalya believes she has ascended beyond anything they've ever done, so why weigh herself down?

Joey Styles: Well I can't believe it, but it looks like that's the case.

Nattie stopped at the top of the ramp and looked out at the crowd, raising the Women's Championship belt one more time as EBWF went to commercial.

MATCH THREE

As Warfare returned from a commercial break, Enzo Amore and Trent were making their way to the ring for the next match.

Joey Styles: Welcome back! Up next, Enzo Amore and Trent are teaming up again to take on the EBWF Tag Team Champions, Jimmy Havoc and Braun Strowman!

Corey Graves: I can't wait for this one, Joey! After Braun Strowman is done with Enzo Amore, we might never see that certified freak again!

When Enzo and Trent were in the ring, "I Hope You Suffer" by AFI hit and the crowd gave a mixed reaction as Braun Strowman and Jimmy Havoc headed to the ring. As the Tag Team Champions entered the ring, Havoc moved onto the ring apron, allowing Strowman to start the match. Strowman glared across the ring at Enzo and Trent, who played rock/paper/scissors to determine which of them would start the match. Trent's scissors were blunted by Enzo's rock, so Trent stepped into the ring to face off against the Monster Among Men. As the bell rang, Trent ran at Strowman, but Strowman took him down with a huge big boot. Trent got to his feet and Strowman hit a clothesline, knocking him down once more. Trent got back to his feet, and Strowman hit him with a series of punches, then whipped him against the ropes. As Trent hit the ropes and ran back towards Strowman, the new face of destruction hit him with a back body drop. Trent crawled to the corner, tagging in Enzo.

Joey Styles: It didn’t take long for Trent to decide that he'd had enough of Braun Strowman, Corey!

Corey Graves: This is what I've been waiting for, Joey! Time for Braun Strowman to beat up Enzo Amore!

Enzo entered the ring with swagger, and threw a flurry of punches at Strowman. Braun responded by grabbing Enzo by the throat, lifting him up and hitting a chokeslam! He hooked the leg and the referee counted – 1... 2... kickout! Enzo got his shoulder up just before the three count, but it was obvious that being chokeslammed by the former strongman had worn him down. Jimmy Havoc held out his hand for the tag, and Strowman obliged. Havoc grabbed Enzo and went to pull him to his feet... but Enzo rolled him up in a small package! The referee counted – 1... 2... kickout!

Joey Styles: Enzo almost stole the victory there!

Both men got to their feet and Enzo whipped Havoc into the corner, then hit him with a corner dropkick. Havoc staggered out of the corner, and Enzo set him up for a DDT, but Havoc blocked it, then hit Enzo with an STO into the corner. Havoc pulled Enzo away from the ropes, then hooked the leg. The referee counted – 1... 2... kickout! Havoc then applied an STF, but Enzo was able to get to the ropes. Havoc refused to break the hold! The referee threatened to disqualify him and began to count to five, but Havoc released Enzo at the count of four. Havoc got to his feet and stomped on Enzo repeatedly, but Enzo was still in the ropes. The referee ordered Havoc to take a step back, and Havoc began arguing with the referee. While the referee was distracted, a seven foot giant pulled Braun Strowman down from the ring apron and began attacking him at ringside!

Corey Graves: What the hell? Joey, that's the Big Show!

Joey Styles: He's taken out Braun Strowman! Is he even an EBWF Superstar?!

Big Show took Strowman out with the Knockout Punch, then exited through the crowd. Havoc realised Strowman had been attacked, and as he saw Big Show leaving through the crowd, he tried to point him out to the referee. As Havoc continued to argue with the referee, Enzo got to his feet and attacked Jimmy Havoc, hitting him with a DDT. Enzo tagged in Trent, who hit Havoc with the Crunchy Driver! He hooked the leg and the referee counted – 1... 2... 3!

Corey Graves: I can't believe it! Enzo and Trent just beat the Tag Team Champions... but they had a BIG helping hand!

Joey Styles: Enzo and Trent are on a roll!

The referee called for the bell and Enzo and Trent celebrated their victory.

SEGMENT

The camera cut backstage, where the Big Show was seen talking to the EBWF General Manager, Chris Jericho. Their conversation couldn't be heard by the cameras, but Renee Young approached them, microphone in hand.

Renee Young: Excuse me, Chris, sorry to interrupt. But moments ago we saw the Big Show attack Braun Strowman, arguably costing Strowman and Jimmy Havoc the match. The world wants to know... is that something you orchestrated? Is Big Show the newest member of the EBWF roster?

Jericho scowled at Renee.

Chris Jericho: It sounds like you're accusing me of something, Renee. Are you suggesting that I'm a corrupt GM? We had a corrupt General Manager, but I got rid of Stone Cold Steve Austin. This is a new era for EBWF, but Jimmy Havoc and Braun Strowman don't seem to like that. Havoc threatened me last week, and then Braun did the same this week. I could settle matters with Strowman and Havoc in the ring, but as an Authority Figure it wouldn't be right for me to do that. So I've appointed a bodyguard instead. And who better to be my bodyguard than the World's Largest Athlete? Come on Show, let's talk further in my office.

As Jericho and Big Show walked away, Jimmy Havoc and Braun Strowman could be seen walking back through the curtain. Havoc looked furious and as he walked towards Renee, he snatched the microphone from her, then spoke directly into the camera.

Jimmy Havoc: Fuck it. You want war Jericho, you got it. You won't know what bloody hit you sunshine.

Havoc shoved the camera away, then he and Strowman headed back to the locker room as Warfare went to a commercial break.

MATCH FOUR

Joey Styles: It's time for the main event!

Roman Reigns was out to the ring first, followed by the EBWF World Champion, PJ Black. Once the two men were checked over, the bell rang.

Corey Graves: Looks like the crowd is ready for one hell of a match here.

PJ sized Roman up and then bailed out of the ring. Roman followed him and threw some huge rights before sending him back inside. Roman gave him another huge right hand and whipped him into the ropes. PJ grabbed the ropes and when Roman approached, PJ threw a left jab, and locked on a side headlock takeover to ground Roman.

Joey Styles: This one might be quickly over if the champ has anything to say about it.

Roman moved to his feet and got out of the hold with Moment of Silence! Black went out of the ring again, but Reigns followed him and grabbed him by the arm to whip him into the barricade. Reigns grabbed PJ a second time and escorted him back into the ring. PJ got the senton and put boots to Roman, stomping on his hand before punching him in the face. PJ tried to whip roman across, but Reigns reversed and kicked PJ in the face. PJ fell backwards, bounding off the ropes and Roman leveled him with a pair of lariats. Black ducked the jumping lariat, and fell to his back, retreating to the outside again.

Corey Graves: Black has an interesting strategy here. Wear Roman out.

Roman followed him outside, and PJ whipped him into the steps. PJ hit a senton off the steps. PJ feverishly put the boots to Reigns and then helped him up by the hair. PJ threw Reigns into the steps again, and the big man took an awkward tumble, flying into the steel and anxiously grabbing at his shoulder. PJ followed up by charging and pummeling the larger man with punches until the referee came out to check on Reigns. The ref made Black lay off and after a moment the "X" was thrown and the crowd started to boo. The ref called Christy Hemme over and spoke to her for a few moments.

Christy Hemme: Roman Reigns can not continue this match due to potential injury. So, your winner, due to forfeit - PJ Black!

The crowd wasn't pleased with that, and rained down boos on the EBWF Champion as PJ was given his championship belt. The Darewolf stood in the center of the ring holding his title high as EBWF went off the air.
