PSW Madhouse Episode 2 - Track Queens vs JabbarTV vs The Madness

Briar Lane: The following is a Triple Threat Tornado Tag Team Match, and it is scheduled for one fall!

Crowd: ONE FALL!

Pillars of smoke rise on the stage. Elsa and Eeva, two twin ponytailed ladies, speed out of the sliding doors with their helmets, respective red and purple plaid skirts and roller skates. They slide to a stop at the base of the ramp before splitting off to ride around the ring.

Briar Lane: Introducing first, at a combined weight of 264 pounds, Elsa and Eeva, the TRACK QUEENS!

Dominga: I'll say it again, give these two all the credit and, I guess, Leota too. They surprised me with their roller skate wrestling, but I hope they understand they're in there with more than Tubers this time. A LOT more.

A.B.: I imagine they are fully aware. They have to be.

Elsa and Eeva meet at the base of the ramp once again and slide into the ring. They each climb the ropes and throw up the sign of the horns, before hopping down and throwing off their helmets and plaid skirts.

Dominga: Settle down, Aazif.

Shamoon: I didn't even say anything!

Dominga: That's what I'm worried about.

PSW Madhouse Episode 2 - Cold Reception, Warm Welcome

The cameraman finds himself in a dark room with candles everywhere. He steps around them, carefully, taking deep breaths as he approaches a very tall chair. He walks around, but finds no one sitting there. 

 The candles slowly go out, darkening the room further and further until he can see nothing. He looks around, trying to leave, but not knowing which way is out, frost forming with every heavy breath, soft crunching noises with every step, until his feet become rooted to the floor.

Then the light returns, but it is not the same. It is blue, like the ice. The silhouette of the Thunderweight Champion, El Demonio de las Heladas, passes by. The light follows him, for his eyes are the source, though he does not look at the cameraman, only at his belt, its golden lightning patterns shining almost as brightly.

Heladas: They say that time waits for no man, but I am no man. And yet, I grow tired of waiting.

PSW Madhouse Episode 2 - Luisa Festa vs "Emperor" Talon w/ "Socialite" Seraphina Dubois

The stage is lit with a neon purple colour. The sliding doors open, and Festa, still a little bandaged up, rolls forward into a cross-legged sitting position. The lights change to red. She lifts herself to a knee and backflips, landing in a superhero pose. A strobe effect of green, yellow, white, and red is created. 

Shamoon: She's looking a lot better.

Briar Lane: On the way to the ring, from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, standing 5 feet 6 and weighing in at 129 pounds, LUISA FESTA!

She gets up and skips to the ring with a spaced-out look on her face. holding out her arms and waving them like a tubeman. The crowd cheers her on. 

Dominga: She's on something. I just know it.

A.B.: She was just tested. They couldn't find anything.

Dominga: Look at her eyes! Last week, they were pink. This week, they're blue. She's Afro-Brazilian. That doesn't make any sense.

Shamoon: Ever hear of contact lenses?

Dominga: I worked with contacts for years. Those irises are real! 

PSW Madhouse Episode 2 - Maya Lethbridge w/Kalavina Leota vs Athiambo

A rocking melody plays. A young Caucasian woman with short brown hair with bangs, wearing blue and red gear, jogs out of the sliding doors on the stage. She is followed closely by an older, stern-looking Samoan woman with big curly hair and a tracksuit. The crowd pops mildly, more so for the older woman.

Briar Lane: Accompanied to the ring by Kalavina Leota, from Calgary, Alberta, Canada, standing 5 feet 6 and weighing in at 140 pounds, Maya Lethbridge!

A.B.: Maya Lethbridge, the young technician with 8 years in the game. We last saw her and her mentor, Kalavina Leota, the "Mother Hen of Holds" at Saturday Night Super Fight in November. They stepped inside the 16-person Cage Match to crown the first-ever PSW Tag Team Champions, a match that was won by Team Wallace over on the Fight Pit.

Lethbridge high-fives and fistbumps some fans. Leota whispers something in her ear, and she nods before rolling into the ring and slapping herself to get focused.

Dominga: Oh, so Leota trains actual wrestlers, too? 

A.B.: What's that supposed to mean?

PSW Madhouse Episode 2 - Champion's Pride

Ishikawa is getting helped to the back.

Backstage

Chloe Davis stands in front of a large TV monitor, mic in hand and a smile on her face.

Davis: Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the Bearer of the Jewell, EMPRESS NGOZI!

The crowd explodes in raucous applause before the Empress even appears on screen. When she does, clad in a black robe and signature orange visor with the Jewell's Championship over her left shoulder, they get even louder.

Davis: Empress, thank you for your time. How's the arm?

Ngozi raises her right arm and bends it, slowly: It's much better, Chloe, though not quite 100%. Of course, if I were 100%, I'd be the best wrestler in the world. (pauses, looks up) Oh, wait! (looks at Chloe with a smile, lowers arm) I am.

PSW Madhouse Episode 2 - Roger Evans (c) vs Hotaru Ishikawa

Various crewmen come down to the ring, setting down or setting up tables all around the ring. The two combatants, now both no longer wearing their respective shirts and accessories, take their corners.

 A.B.: If you’re just joining us, Hotaru Ishikawa has challenged the inaugural Crimson King, Roger Evans, to a tables match!

Dominga: A horrible mistake will be corrected tonight. The Lord truly works in mysterious ways.  

 A.B.: As you can see, the ring is now surrounded by tables. The danger is ever-present. 

Shamoon: You think that stuff Ishikawa said was true? About getting replaced in the Crimson Cage fatal-4-way at Ascension?

A.B.: I'm sure he'd love to believe that. 

Dominga: He wouldn't have said it if it wasn't true. In fact, I have it on good authority that he was in the running before this idiot got handed the spot. (sighs) Will this beautiful sport ever be free of backstage politics and nepotism?

Shamoon: Tell me YOU aren't complaining about nepotism?

PSW Madhouse Episode 2 - The Dude & the D-bag

A.B.: Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the second episode of Psycho Style Wrestling's Monday Night Madhouse! We come to you live from the Sunrays Stadium in the beautiful city of Lambanog! I'm Alf Balducci, the fiery Dominga Alvarez to my right, the insightful Aazif Shamoon to my left. Guys, I am excited!

Dominga: The one thing that would make this night better would be if I didn’t have to see that fedora-wearing cabrón at the start of the show. 

 A.B.: Amen to that. 

 Shamoon: Oh, come on. Just give him a chance. 

 A.B.: He was given one last week and he disrespected the business with his presence. 

PSW Madhouse Episode 2 - Quid Pro Quo

 

- 6 January 2031.

Backstage 1 hour and 30 minutes before the show starts. No fans. No cameras.

Sarah Esposito is seated on a chair, on the phone, due to not having a match. She is wearing jeans and a jacket. 

Esposito: It was that bad? Wow, my dad didn't talk to me for days, but… Uh-huh, look, they'll come around, I'm sure of- (Door opens) I’ll have to call you back. (Puts phone in pocket and gets up quickly)

Empress Ngozi (raises hands): Easy! I come in peace. 

PSW Fight Pit Episode 1 - *The Honey Badger vs Vito Montani

Previous Segment

Vito Montani is standing by a corner, facing away from the stage and gripping the ropes tightly.

SDS: And so we have our new main event for tonight. I just want to apologise to everyone for the atrocious, unprofessional conduct of our Champion. I would say the same thing for the challenger, but his frustration is understandable. The phrase "Card is subject to change" typically refers to factors beyond our control, acts of God, if you will. It has nothing to do with THAT!

DS: I still can't believe he did it. He really walked out...

SDS: It's disgusting, isn't it?

DS: What're you talking about? It was awesome! Did you see the look on Campbell's face? I've seen fresh, ripe tomatoes more pale.

SDS: So you're condoning that?

DS: I'm not condoning nothing. Don't put words in my mouth!

SDS: You just called it awesome!

David Bekker: Ladies and gentlemen, this is your main event of the evening! And it is scheduled for one fall.

Crowd: ONE FALL!

David Bekker: And it is for the Psycho Style Wrestling World Dominion Championship!

An intense hip hop track plays over the speakers, and the crowd pops. Montani comes out, shirtless as always, with a beanie on his head, a crucifix around his neck and purpose in his steps. 

David Bekker: Introducing the challenger! Representing the Streetwise Krew, from Newark, New Jersey in the USA, standing 2 metres tall and weighing in at 121 kilos, VITO MONTANI!
