August 6th, 2020 edition of Rush! Live from The Northlands Coliseum in Edmonton Alberta Canada!
Wolf Knox gets his hand raised by the referee before walking over to the corner and standing on the second rope soaking in the cheers and the fact he just punched his ticket for the ZCW Championship match. Wolf drops down off the second turnbuckle and exits the ring. Wolf heads up the ramp slapping hands with the eager fans pleased with his debut and now focused on his next target, the ZCW Championship. The cameras go to the parking lot as a vehicle pulls in and parks. The occupants exit the vehicle to reveal them to be Continental Home Wrecking Crew members Debra Lynn Tiger and Jenifer West. CHWC head through the parking lot with their bags in hand when a woman runs up to them with a microphone in hand.
Woman: Missus Tiger! Miss West! Later tonight in the main event you will be facing hashtag TeamKick with a shot at the Women's and Miss Canada Champions at a later date. How are you two feeling going into the match? Jenifer West: The Continental Home Wrecking Crew are not only the top tier women's tag team but individually we are the top tier women in all of professional wrestling. Those little gremlins are even worth our time but we will take care of them anyways. Debra Lynn Tiger: Hashtag TeamKick are provoking the wrong...wait a minute! Debra Lynn Tiger stops in her tracks causing Jenifer West and the woman to stop as a result. Debra Lynn Tiger: Who in the hell are you?! Woman: Oh I am Rachel Lee. I was recently signed here to be the new backstage interviewer. Debra Lynn Tiger: Well "Rachel Lee", I would advise you get knowledgeable about just who you are talking to. The Continental Home Wrecking Crew will be victorious tonight and that team of rookies will get the respect slapped into them. Debra Lynn Tiger and Jenifer West continue through the parking lot leaving Rachel Lee looking on. Rachel Lee: This is Rachel Lee, ZCW's newest interviewer, signing... Rachel Lee is interrupted by a confident Darcy Bordeaux and nervous Stephen Hall walking up to them. Stephen Hall: Was that Debra and Jenifer you were just talking to? Rachel Lee: Why yes it was. Why do you ask? Stephen Hall doesn't look too pleased with the answer and looks to be getting more anxious. Darcy Bordeaux: Will you just relax? You have always claimed to be a top star here and worthy of championship gold. Stephen Hall: I also didn't have an over grown gorilla with an anger problem coming after me because someone said something about his daughter. Darcy Bordeaux: That is your own damn fault!
Stephen Hall: Just look at me! I am the most sexually attractive man on this roster and you are the most sexually attractive woman on the roster. There is none better than us. Darcy Bordeaux: Yeah you got that right! Rachel Lee: Umm excuse me but why did you stop me? Stephen Hall: Excuse me?! Why are you interrupting us? Rachel Lee rolls her eyes and walks off towards the arena leaving Stephen Hall and Darcy Bordeaux to gaze upon each other. The camera feed is directed back to the ZCW Headquarters building as the door to the Conference Room opens and Rochelle Shields steps out looking pretty pleased with the outcome of the meeting. Rochelle is handed a microphone by the camera man upon request. Rochelle Shields: Rochelle Shields here and I was just dismissed from the management meeting and I certainly have an inside scoop for everyone later in the evening. Stay tuned. You will NOT want to miss it! Rochelle Shields smiles as her and the camera crew head down the hall away from the conference room. The cameras switch over to the Chelsea Reilly standing inside the Women's locker room standing next to the ZCW Women's Champion Taylor Shaw. Chelsea Reilly: Chelsea Reilly standing here with the Women's Champion Taylor Shaw shortly before her scheduled non title match. Miss Shaw, you were the one that requested this match. What made you want to make this decision? Taylor Shaw: Well to be quite honest, I am quite tired of listening to Erika May hiding behind her phone talking massive amounts of trash but once it comes to being in the ring she falls flat on her ass. So she wants to claim she was unjustly eliminated from the tournament for this championship, well put your skills where your mouth is. You beat me, I will petition for you to get a shot at this championship. You lose, you shut your damn mouth until you prove you deserve to be in the ring with the Goddess of ZCW. I don't play games in the ring. Case and point, I am the Women's Champion as you aren't. Woman: Yeah only because I had a cold at the time. Chelsea Reilly and Taylor Shaw turn their attention behind them to see Charisma Chase and Selina Chase walking up to them. Taylor Shaw: Excuse me?! Charisma Chase: You heard me! You only beat me because I was sick that night. Nothing more. Nothing less. Your win is tainted. Taylor Shaw: The only thing sick about you is your mental state. Is this what James E. Dangerously is filling your head with this nonsense? Selina Chase: Being physically sick is not something someone can tell you to be. Taylor Shaw: Well don't we have an Einstein over there. Brilliant deduction Watson. Honey, no one was talking to you. But since you want to say my win was a fluke? You and me next week. Women's Championship match. You will have no excuses when I kick your ass once again. Charisma Chase: I will see you then but until then, keep that thing shiny for me. The Chase Girls laugh as they walk away getting what they came for. Taylor Shaw: Looks like Erika May is going to be a martyr for the Chase Girls tonight. Taylor Shaw adjusts the Women's Championship before walking out of the locker room. The cameras catch Natasha Costello in the ring. Natasha Costello: Keep up the excite as we prepare for our next contest! The crowd cheers for Natasha Costello. Natasha Costello: The following contest is scheduled for one fall! "Girl All The Bad Boys Want" plays bringing Erika May out from behind the curtain to the cheering crowd. Erika stops at the top of the ramp and poses for the crowd before heading down the ramp to the ring. Natasha Costello: Introducing first. From Pasadena California. Erika May! Erika May walks around the ring before climbing onto the ring apron before climbing into the ring telling everyone it is all about her. "No Rest For The Wicked" plays bringing Taylor Shaw with the Women's Championship around her waist out from behind the curtain to the cheering crowd. Taylor Shaw walks to the top of the ramp and displays the championship before heading down the ramp towards the ring. Natasha Costello: And her opponent. From Newport Beach California. She is the Women's Champion. Taylor Shaw! Taylor Shaw walks up the steel steps before walking across the ring apron and climbing into the ring. Taylor climbs to the second rope and displays the championship to the roaring crowd. Taylor drops down from the turnbuckle and hands the championship over to the referee. The referee walks over to the ropes and hands the championship over before calling for the bell. Erika May battles the ZCW Women's Champion Taylor Shaw in a non title contest May and Shaw lock up in the center of the ring jocking for position. May pulls Shaw in then pushes her back showing size advantage. Shaw looks at May getting mad before stomping over and gets held back by May. May yawns before pushing Shaw back again and hits a big boot taking her down. May picks Shaw up and hits a chop across Shaw's chest backing her up. May hits another chop taking Shaw into the corner before hitting another chop. May drapes Shaw's arms over the ropes before connects with a hard chop taking Shaw off her feet. May holds Shaw in the corner before hitting another hard chop knocking Shaw to the mat in the corner. May places her boot on Shaw's throat and begins to choke her in the corner. The referee begins to make the count trying to get May to break the hold. The referee pulls May off of Shaw much to May's dismay. The referee and May argue as Shaw pulls herself up from the corner holding her throat. May charges into the corner but Shaw hops up and drills May in the face with her boots. May stumbles back as Sahw pulls herself onto the second turnbuckle before going for the Goddess Punch. May moves out of the way and Shaw lands on her feet. May slugs Shaw in the head with a forearm knocking her back. May picks up Shaw into The Gallows but Shaw is able to elbow and knee herself free forcing May to set her down. Shaw quickly springboards off the second rope hitting a Goddess Punch on May. May hits the mat moments before Shaw runs for the turnbuckles and climbs to the top. Shaw stands on the top turnbuckle and signals for before launching herself into the Goddess Ending. Shaw quickly makes the cover. 1 .... 2 .... 3! Winner: ZCW Women's Champion Taylor Shaw via pin fall victory Natasha Costello: Your winner, the Women's Champion, Taylor Shaw! Taylor Shaw raises her arm in victory as the referee hands over the Women's Championship over to her. Taylor poses with the championship before exiting the ring. Taylor walks up the ramp slapping hands with the fans on her way to the back. The cameras move over to one of the sky boxes where Nick O'Brien and Michael Banning are sitting beside ZCW Producer Anna Rose. "Big" Nick O'Brien: Welcome to the "half time" intermission for our live audience. ZCW knows that wrestling events can be very long and some people are unable to hold their drinks and really don't want to miss any of the action. Then again, this set up might be gone within a matter of weeks if we get a negative reaction to it. But anyways, we are going to be taking this time to discuss some of the night's event as well as sit down with a competitor, producer, or management member. We were looking forward to possibly speak with our Chairman but with that meeting earlier, he has been unavailable. But we have been able to secure some time with one of the first producers to be signed, wrestling legend Anna Rose. Miss Rose it is a pleasure to have you here. Anna Rose: The pleasure is all mine. It is great to be able to sit here with you two. Michael Banning: Let's start this off with a question directed towards you. Anna Rose: Oh my! I wasn't ready for this but I hope I can answer it properly. Michael Banning: You have been with ZCW since the beginning. Like Nick said earlier, you are one of the first producers hired, with Lee J. Tiger being the first, so you have been through the big transition from our former General Manager Peyton Johnston over to our current GM Khyati Roberts. How do you feel the transition has been? Anna Rose: I loved working with Peyton! I miss her every day. But to answer your question, the transition has been night and day to be honest. Peyton put out the very first Rush! event and she was fired soon after. Some blame me but if you ask the office, it was her own undoing. Khyati, on the other hand, has put out multiple successful events and is currently going very strong. Her management style is very formal and she holds no punches. It is absolutely wonderful working under her. "Big" Nick O'Brien: To follow up to that, people do claim and could have a very valid point that your relationship with Peyton was what ultimately cost her the GM position. Anna Rose: She chose to step out of her office and join me out on the town. She informed me what the rules were and she voluntarily broke them. I love Peyton but she is the one that broke the rules. "Big" Nick O'Brien: I do find it funny that the President of ZCW and President of Women's Talent Relations had an issue with her, she got fired, and now their cousin is the General Manager. Anna Rose: That here nor there. All that matters is that ZCW is on an up tick in popularity and is doing well. Michael Banning: Alright, lets get back on track here. To kick off the night, we saw the Miss Canada Championship being put on the line when Selina Chase defended the championship against Jessikah Hall-Tiger. Miss Rose, you are somewhat on the active roster representing the women's division, how do you feel about the representation of the women? Anna Rose: As being the producer helping this match, I feel absolutely thrilled for how this match was presented. Of course I can't take the credit because both women are great talents and I would be honored to work with either of them. "Big" Nick O'Brien: Since you were working on the Miss Canada Championship match, does that mean you were not in on the meeting earlier today? Anna Rose: I was not. Producers were not called in for the meeting due to us working with the talent on making the night go off without a hitch. I am aware that the General Manager was in the meeting leaving us to take care of anything that might come up. Luckily we have great locker room leaders and tremendous producers that can handle just about anything that could go wrong. Michael Banning: What are your feeling, see you work with the talent and are very hands on with them. about the signing of Matthew Taylor? Anna Rose: Mister Taylor has been a world champion every where he has gone. He is one of the best talents this industry has. I am very happy about hearing he signed here. I watched his match from the back and I am really impressed about how he holds himself in the ring. He could very well be a top contender for the ZCW Championship. In fact, as of tonight, he is THE top contender for the ZCW Championship. The question now is not if but WHEN will he be getting his title shot. "Big" Nick O'Brien: Since you are heavily involved with the women's division, were you apart of the almost altercation between the Chase Girls and Women's Champion Taylor Shaw? Anna Rose: Excuse me?! Just because I work with them doesn't mean I tell them what to do. Absolutely not! I was hired to help with matches not plot fights. What ever is done outside the ring is not on me. Michael Banning: With Taylor Shaw taking down Erika May not too long ago and now looks to be defending her Women's Championship against Charisma Chase, do you believe Shaw is proving her claims right as being the "Goddess of ZCW"? Anna Rose: With 100% certainty, I will say that if she can successfully defend her champion against Charisma Chase then her claims will be correct. She made it through the tournament to become the first champion. She just beat Erika earlier and with a successful title defense, she will prove to be what she claims to be. "Big" Nick O'Brien: Before we let you go and go back to the ring, there is a question that has been on everyone's mind since you came here. What is your relationship with Allen DeVine? Anna Rose: I don't believe that is anyone's business! DeVine and I have no reason to be in anyone's mo... Anna Rose is suddenly taken down by Taylor Archor coming from out of no where. A scuffle could be heard as a camera moves around to desk to see the fight between Anna and Taylor. Michael and Nick move out of the way as security come in and break the two up. Taylor Archor: I will end you you little bitch! Taylor Archor and Anna Rose are pulled out of the sky box from opposite entrances to prevent another altercation.
