Limitless Pro Wrestling presents...
HURRAH! ANOTHER YEAR, SURELY THIS ONE WILL BE BETTER THAN THE LAST; THE INEXORABLE MARCH OF PROGRESS WILL LEAD US ALL TO HAPPINESS
American Legion Post 43 Hollywood, California January 11th, 2020
'Some shit neverrr changes.' Rather than the oh so hypeful sounds of 'Your Favorite Drug' by Porcelain and The Tramps, the sound of none other than ' YOUR Favorite Drug' Xavier Laroux's voice. Those black velvet curtains being thrown open would give way to the aforementioned definition of arrogance. Stopping at the top of the entrance ramp, microphone in hand, Laroux was dressed and ready to compete, decked out in those tattered, faded denim jeans and that skin tight white tank top. That oh so arrogant smirk was plastered to his features as he began to walk down the ramp, speaking as he went. Xavier Laroux: 'Y'know what I love abso-fuckin-lutely love most, above all else, about this business?' A bit of a coy look took a hold on that expression of his, seemingly waiting for an answer. While members of the audience on either side of Laroux had multiple answers for him, none of them were the one he was waiting for. Xavier Laroux: 'It's not the fact that most the chicks round here will happily give it up to anyone with a name in hopes that they gain at least somethin from it. It's not the fact that everyone you look at in the back are thinkin up ways they can take you out just to get your spot. Now..while I absolutely adore those things..they ain't my favorite.' Finally reaching the end of his descent and the front of that ring, Laroux rolled in under the bottom set of ropes only to pop back up to his feet. Backing up to the middle of the ring, he faced the entryway, that smirk of his only growing larger. Xavier Laroux: 'My favorite bout this business is that it's like a low self esteem havin abuse victim.' He couldn't get much further after those words left his mouth. The negative reaction filled the air, raining down upon Laroux as he simply extended his arms outwards, basking in it. Letting his arms drop to his sides, he shrugged his shoulders before speaking up again. Xavier Laroux: 'I mean seriously. How many bridges do I gotta burn? How many companies do I gotta bail on, leavin'em high and dry? You'd think that would come back to bite me in the ass..but it doesn't. That's one of the best parts bout bein me. I. Don't. Face. Consequences.' As those boos only grew louder, this seemingly fueled Laroux as he fell into a more nonchalant poise. Backing into the lower right turnbuckles, he brought his arms up to rest on the ropes. Xavier Laroux: 'Doesn't matter a goddamn bit what I do. No matter how many times I leave without a word to anyone and come back. I always pick up right where I left off. Like nothin ever happened. And y'know why it's like that?' He tilted his head to the side for just a moment before shaking it, not giving anyone a chance to answer his question. Xavier Laroux: 'It's cause nobody can do what I do..the way I do it. I take things to a whole different level. And I do it with a smile. For example..while ago, there was this..tag team I didn't like. They rubbed me the wrong way. So..I got the urge to split them up. He was a complete fuckin tool but she was definitely fuckable. And believe me..I tried. Of course I fuckin tried. I mean..I got close. But when the direct approach didn't quite have the reaction I wanted..I took a different route.' After a momentary pause, a sadistic tone shone in that smirk of his. Xavier Laroux: 'I fucked olegirl's cousin. In her and her oleman's house. Now..I don't wanna toot my own horn butttt that tag team is no longer an issue.' Pushing out of that corner, Laroux looked absolutely overjoyed with himself, even going as far as to pat himself on the back for his recollection. Xavier Laroux: 'That..is what makes me better than goddamn near everyone in this company. That is why Duke approached me bout steppin on over here. He needed somebody who can get the job done. Someone who can do the less than..virtuous things that sometime need to be done. Someone who can go that extra mile to prove a point. And that's just what I'm gonna do. It starts tonight and it starts with that fat fuck Shaun Kasiano.' As soon as those two words left his lips, his smirk was washed away by a look of utter disgust. Xavier Laroux: 'Kasiano..he's prolly sittin back there, gotta get someone to help him cause his fat ass can't bend all the way over to lace his own boots. He's thinkin.. oh boy, I can use my clear size advantage to end this quick and I can go back home and smash on this box of Twinkies.' 'But nah, it's not gonna be like that. Assumin I'm not gonna be a total dick and run laps on you around the ring till your grease clogged heart just finally fuckin gives it up..my moveset..the way I fight..is tailored for opponents of any size. I want you to keep your fat ass back there and let your thyroid continue to spiral outta control and maybe you'll gain a few more fat cells while I'm talkin to ya.' That look of disgust would soon be overtaken by that smirk as he continued to talk. Xavier Laroux: 'I am perfectly prepared to face anyone at any time. No matter how big they are, how agile they are, how technically sound they are. I'm ready. I'm gonna cut you down. I'm literally gonna work circles around your fat ass. And there's nothin you can do bout it.' Each word spoke by Laroux, he sounded so sure of himself. Confidence radiated from him as he made his way back to the middle of the ring. From there, he walked into the ropes, the bulk of his weight resting against them with his gaze fixated towards the back. Xavier Laroux: 'I'm gonna show Duke why he made the right choice by bringin me in. Open up them veins folks. Let's relapse.' Shoving off of those ropes, Laroux tossed the microphone off to the side before backing up a few steps. He grabbed the bottom of it only to peel it off of his torso, pitching it off to the side as he awaited the arrival of Shaun.

McFadden and his manager step from the rental car. He walks to the trunk and opens it then removes his gym bag. Brant retrieves his suitcase and the two men walk through the parking garage. Brant Ryder: Tonight is the first night you two have worked the same show, right? West smiles bashfully and nods. West McFadden: Kinda special I think. She’ll probably do a heck of a lot better out there. Ryder laughs and slaps his client’s back. Brant Ryder: You’re not a complete wash up yet, my guy. Fight spirits been your selling point for the last decade. They always think the mild mannered, quiet ones are filler. You and I know better. You’ve always delivered a solid fight. Nothing chances with Limitless. West McFadden: First impressions are a pain. Brant Ryder: That may be, but they’re painfully necessary. West McFadden: I’m always anxious as hell. Brant Ryder: You have your best fights when you’re on pins and needles. McFadden shakes his head with uncertainty on that comment. West McFadden: There’s no pattern. You’re only as--. Brant Ryder: --good as your last fight. Yeah--you’ve been spouting that mantra for a decade. Bring home that win and you can tell me some more of your tired quips. How do you think Holliday is going to be? West McFadden: I can only hope he’s a challenge. It wouldn’t be worth a damn if he was easy to put out of commision. He talks too much--they all do. Brant Ryder: Part of the show, old man. You can’t just punch your way to the top of the food chain. West McFadden: It could work. Brant Ryder: I always held onto the hope that one day you’d stop being so camera shy. West McFadden: I always heard that some people used to believe cameras would steal your soul. Brant Ryder: In this world of filters and selfies? West McFadden: Guess they weren’t far off.
The Invitational Shane Holliday vs. West McFadden Winner: West McFadden West won with a surprise headbutt, and as he got to his feet? He looked over at Shane who was started to recover, before he just tapped the side of his nose, pointing at the man, and then turned to leave the ring to applause.

Backstage is Limitless’s lead interviewer Josephine Diaz.
Josephine Diaz: “Ladies and Gentlemen, I’m here with “Luchadorable” Skye Healy.”
Skye Healy saunters in with a new all black look but the same bright smile on her face.
Josephine Diaz: “Skye… you’re… shall we say transformation hasn’t been received as positively as you would have hoped.”
Skye makes a face almost laughing the comment off.
Skye Healy: “Uh… I think you’re mistaken. All of these people love me!”
The crowd nearly boos Skye out of the building. Skye smiles at the crowd and waves to a young girl throwing her thumbs down.
Josephine Diaz: “Well I humbly disagree, but I have another question to ask you. Tonight you are entered in the first ever ‘Red Carpet Rumble’. Among those participants is the Limitless Champion Jack Daniels. One would think that if you were to WIN this match, you’d be in line for a future title shot.”
Skye Healy: “I’ve been very close to that gold before. I had just graduated, I was fighting my best friend, and my boyfriend at the time was at ringside. It was the single biggest night of my career.”
Skye pauses for a moment.
Skye Healy: “That is… until I kicked Michael Hayden’s head off his shoulders and forced him into retirement.”
A resounding boo-vation is rained down upon the bubbly Canadian. She doesn’t pay any mind to it though as she is still all smiles.
Josephine Diaz: “Speaking on that, How do you feel about the threats Kassie Maxwell has made towards you?”
Before Skye can respond, a large portion of the crowd begins a “HOOF!” chant directed at Healy. She rolls her eyes and smiles.
Skye Healy: “Listen, Kass and I go way back. We trained together. We did promo class together. We graduated together. Anyway, my point is: I know Kassie! She’s a hot head and gets caught up in her emotions. These little barbs she likes to dish out are nothing more than talk. But if she’s going to continue to accuse me of being a traitor, then maybe she can continue following Hayden’s footsteps... out of Limitless.”
Josephine Diaz: “Okay. One more question. How concerned are you with the rumors that Hayden has been training Kassie to challenge you for a match soon?”
Skye makes a quizzical look towards Diaz.
Skye Healy: “‘Concerned’? About Hayden? Do I need to remind you it was me who ended Hayden’s career? The same man who ‘lost his smile’ and went home. He wants to be vague about teasing a comeback? I’ll quickly remind him that I didn’t need him to make a name for myself.”
Kassie Maxwell: "I'd like to test that theory."
Bold words with a bolder statement as Kassie herself walked in, rocking an Izzy Van Doren t shirt beneath that worn out #LIMITLESS hoodie.
Kassie Maxwell: "Josie. Skye."
Nodding to both, plastering an obviously fake smile on her face as she looked between them both.
Skye Healy nervously laughs the woman off. She grabs the microphone from Diaz’s hand and shews her away.
Skye Healy: “Kassie. What a surprise. Don’t you have… any other place to be? Are you lost by any chance? Because I hear your girlfrien-”
Kassie Maxwell: “Saying her name won't save you."
Leaning forward, practically presenting her chin to Skye, as if quietly daring her former friend to take her shot.
Kassie Maxwell: "No worries though, right? No concerns? Not scared in the slightest?"
Skye’s mouth hangs open as The Hoofmaster stands almost nose to nose with her. Her tongue curls around her lip before flashing a pearly white smile.
Skye Healy: “Scared? Of you? Kass, I’m not scared of anything. But if you could, please, tell me what are you doing here? I had this time reserved for me and Josie.”
Kassie Maxwell: "I thought I'd give you a hand.."
Reaching forward to adjust Skye's clothing, let her fingertips linger on her shoulders, her eyes on hers.
Kassien Maxwell: "I couldn't never not love you, no matter what we've said to one another, but.."
Right then and there, she was jerking her forward as she brought her forehead down, headbutting Skye to start the brawl between the pair that quickly became a full scale war between the two as Skye fell back, trying to collect what just transpired. Skye rose up tackling the Scot to the ground, but Kassie raised her legs to try and lock in a triangle choke. Skye scrambles to escape as security rushes in to break the two up. Skye is pulled off Kassie gasping for air and taken out of frame. Kassie, however, is all smiles.

Eliza Foley is sitting on the bench in her locker room, slowly winding tape around her hands in a little pre-match ritual that seems to be keeping her calm and level. Her long blonde hair covering her face, elbows to knees as she concentrates entirely on what she’s doing. A slow, rhythmic and timed motion. No warning was given as someone moved behind her, but the slow motion was a hint that whoever was lifting their hands up and placing them on her shoulders wanted to subtly warn Eliza that she was about to behind her. Grasping those shoulders, the hands squeezed them only to release before squeezing again. As the camera panned out to capture the frame, it was none other than Eliza’s wife, Nora. Nora Foley: “You’ve got this, Love.” Inclining her head back to look up at her wife, Eliza manages a small smile, nodding in a less than convincing manner. Eliza Foley: “It’s been a while… There’s a weight behind to returning to the ring, all of the history I have, the expectations I’ve built over time. What happens if I just don’t have it anymore?” Rabbiting her nose, Nora was leaning down to press a kiss to Eliza’s forehead, a brief peck, before pulling back to look down at her. Nora Foley: “Then we make a decision. One that’s going to end up in you embracing the greatness you’re destined for, that you achieved once in Millennium. The other alternative is hanging it up, and while I’d still love you, and I’d still accept you? We both know that you wouldn’t accept it on the inside.” A sigh was delivered before she released her shoulders and moved her muscled frame to sit down next to her on that bench. Nora Foley: “You’re Eliza Foley. You’re the greatest woman that I’ve ever known. You trust my judgment, yes?” Nodding Eliza rests her head to her wife’s shoulder and let’s out a small laugh. Eliza Foley: “You always know how to bring me back to myself. Even when I’m nervous or questioning, you’re beside me every step of the way and honestly, I don’t know what I’d do without you…” Straightening up on the bench Eliza nods, as though agreeing with something unspoken between them. Eliza Foley: “Tonight I’m going out there not just for me, but for the both of us and I promise to do you proud.” Nora Foley: “You already make me proud. Now..” She leaned in for another kiss, pressing her lips to her cheek before she pulled back. Nora Foley: “...Who’s going to murder her opponent tonight?” Slowly a wide grin begins to spread across Eliza’s face. Eliza Valentine: “Me.”
The Invitational Eliza Foley vs. Diego Alejandro Matias
The crowd was deafening as it went wild with roars and boos all the same, both for Eliza as she stood there, soaking it while the referee raised her hand in victory. Still, the crowd well and truly popped when Diego got to his feet. Was it round two? Was it another fight?
No. Diego offered his hand, and after hesitation, Eliza took it, the crowd roaring in approval!

Skye, obviously paranoid that Kassie is somewhere following her, is roaming backstage. She unknowingly bumps into a tall, slender figure.
Skye Healy: “Excuse me.”
The figure turns to reveal it’s Duke Fontenot, the newest COO of Limitless.
Duke Fontenot: “No, no, Ma Cherie.. Excuse moi, that's not my fault for watching out around me. I suppose it's fortuitous enough that you bumped into me right after your fight with Miss Maxwell."
The worry in Skye’s eyes begins to grow.
Duke Fontenot: “I know you got that red carpet rumble, and if you win, that’s a title match for you. But… if you fail to win, then at the next Limitless show? I got an idea. Skye Healy, Kassie Maxwell. A #LimitlessLumberJackMatch. Finishes up business between you two, so everyone plays nice after. You pick five, she picks five. We're all friends after, non?"
Skye is flabbergasted! She can hardly speak without uttering simple sounds.
Duke Fontenot: “Don’t fuck it up, Ma Cherie.”
Duke slaps Skye on the back and walks out of frame whistling the tune of Born on the Bayou.
The scene comes to life and our camera is focused on what appears to be the remnants of a New Year's party. There's a banner, half hung, reading HAPPY 2020 in gaudy, glittery purple letters on a gold background. Almost looks as if it's been torn down. We slowly pan downward to see a stage, typically where a washed up band would take 20 bucks to sing all those songs we always hear at New Years' parties..but only this time, the singer is a skeleton with a party hat. Beads hang artfully off his clavicle as his bony, bony fingers grip a microphone, entertaining the empty chairs before us. He's joined by two other skeletons--neither one being Josh Kennedy, as we have discovered--one on drums and one on the keyboard, with a bright purple feather boa around its' shoulders. As always, a dime-store smoke machine coughs up some mist behind the skele-band.
Now, we hear the heavy clomp of some boots as Erik Holland walks into the shot to distract us from this frankly kinda' sad scene, with a pair of those LED-blinking 2020 glasses sat in front of his face and a HAPPY NEW YEAR top hat, that looks somewhat disheveled..maybe with a little smoke damage...artfully cocked on his big head. Erik scratches said head with a finger, making a big show out of it.
You know, i think it's an interesting phenomenon in those last few days between Christmas and New Year's. Everybody's on social media, making artful, deep, inspirational declarations for the new year. Reflecting back on how theyve grown, and what they want to do in the next year to keep growing. It inspires me especially to look back on what I've done at Limitless, and to be truthful..
Erik shakes his head.
Not much there I've done. Right? Just come in occasionally to wrestle my friends. MAYBE beat up a young guy who talked too much shit once upon a time. MAYBE get me a title shot. But that title shot...heh...got me thinking a lot about this New Year New Me stuff. Of course, over the holidays I'm going to spend a LOT of time relaxing with my family and recharging for the new year, as I hope everybody else is gonna' do..
Erik begins gesticulating with his hands to show how excited he is about the new year upcoming.
But then come January, come January 11th specifically, Limitless is bringin' me to Hollywood. Usually the way it is is you gotta' pay 30 thousand dollars to put your star on the Walk of Fame, but when it comes to Limitless Wrestling all you've got to do to make yourself a star is to win the Red Carpet Rumble. Yes, folks, I've got to beat up nine other wrestlers and toss em over the top rope to win this thing and put myself in a good position for 2020. Just the way I wanna' start it off...by beating the shit out of a whole ring-full of 'em!
Erik walks over to the skeleton at the keyboards and readjusts its feather boa.
Maxx Bennett, Jazmin Davis, Jason Maverick, Damien Miri, ASTRO, Skye Healy, Siobhan Mahoney, Arturo Lujan...and our intrepid Limitless Champion, Jacky Rex Daniels. Nine tremendous competitors, let there be no doubt about that. Some young talent that is hungry to make an impact and some world travelled veterans that want to get 2020 started off on the right foot. I am sorry to inform them all--well, no, really, i'm not--that this moment, this time, does not belong to them.
Erik now makes his way to the center of the shot, the smoke from the dry ice machine roiling around his feet.
When I made the declaration on Twitter that I would win the Limitless Championship in 2020, that wasn't one of those New Years' Resolutions that you make and don't live up to. Limitless has challenged me as a competitor in ways that inspire me, in ways that force me to expand the man and the wrestler that Erik Holland is. I have to live up to the challenge that Limitless is putting in front of me. I'm glad, especially, in a lot of ways, that Duke Fontenot challenged me on Twitter the way that he did. Called me out the way that he did.
Erik grins madly behind those glasses, almost like theyre blinking faster the more energized he gets.
Because Duke, you are going to GET the man that you want at the Red Carpet Rumble. You want to see Erik Holland take the next step? You wanna see me step up the way I NEED to to win the Limitless title? Then you did the right thing putting me in this match. You did not only what I need, but what Limitless needs as well. So all you gotta do now, Duke, is sit back, count your money..
Erik walks past the camera to head out the heavy green metal EXIT doors--those weirdly also appear to be scored with some smoke damage--but before he reaches the doors, Erik turns his head back at the camera. Holland grins and reaches into the back pocket of his black jeans..
And he pulls out a half used pack of matches.
...and watch the fireworks.
Holland tosses the matches behind him and exits through the doors, the last thing we hear being the metallic CLANG of the doors slamming shut.
The cracking of beer cans can be heard as we pan down to see the LCW Tag Team Champions, Jack Danielson and Andrew Wilkow, shotgunning beers and crushing them over their heads once their done. The cheer in pure hype as they hi-five and continue to hype each other up with fist bumps and bro-hugs. Jack, who had finished his beer first flexes for a moment before saying.
Jack Danielson: Gotta keep up, brother. I know it’s hard to drink as fast as “The Fastest Shotgunner this side of the Mason Dixon Line”, but it’s just something you gotta do to get out of that bodyguard mindset and into the “Dually” Tag Champion Mindset.
Andrew Wilkow: I feel ya, Jackie-Boy, but just because you drink beer faster than a fish gulps water don’t mean I can’t still drink you under the table like I was that Giant Feller that drank 156 beers in one sitting.
Jack Danielson: Yea, but brother, if you could drink 156 beers in one sitting, we wouldn’t be out here wrestling. We’d be pimping your ass out to every county fair and beer festival that has a drinking contest so we could make better money.
Jack pats Wilkow on the back and they both chuckle at the thought of Wilkow being a beer drinking champion and Jack being his “pimp”. They pick their tag titles up and put them over their shoulders.
Jack Danielson: But that’s also why we are here today ain’t it And-
Andrew Wilkow cracks open another beer in the loudest way possible accidentally interrupting Jack in the process.
Andrew Wilkow: My bad, Jackie-Boy. Keep it going!
Jack Danielson: As I was saying, we are here to become Limitless Tag Team Champions.
Andrew Wilkow: Yee Yee!!!
Jack Danielson: Now, don’t ever let it be said that I don’t love and respect my dear cousin, Ms. Honey Sunshine herself, and or her title reign. Hell, we can even through her cute little tag team partner too. Kinda wish she didn’t have a dude, but we can work things out between us, Jana I’m sure.
Andrew Wilkow: Wouldn’t be the first time he’s rode on the Devil’s Tricycle for some cute blonde he couldn’t get over.
Jack Danielson: I do love me some blondes, that’s for damn sure. Yee Yee!!!
Jack kinda looks up and to the left dreaming of blondes and Andrew has to shake him out of his daydream and snap him back into reality.
Andrew Wilkow: Earth to Ol’ Jackie-Boy!!!
Jack Danielson: Sorry, I was seeing blondes. What were we talking about?
Andrew Wilkow: We were talking about how we respect the current tag team champions, but the last time you had faced them, you had a little feller at your side and still pushed them to their limit. You pushed them to their limits basically by yourself with a man half your size, but now you have a man who is about 1 ft taller and 100lbs heavier than you and is your actual tag team partner.
Jack Danielson: Couldn’t have said it better myself, brother.
Andrew Wilkow: And it’s the truth too. Like a few months ago when you faced them, you were not a tag team champion, and you had a half-sized mini-man bull guy. That was never going to get you in the dubya corner, brother. This time around though, you’ve got a tag title and a tag champion partner that is 3x the size of what Reventon is. We gon’ tear through your fam and her friend like a wet ass through toilet paper after eating $1 tacos from that cheap looking mexican place down the street!
Jack Danielson: Mmmmmm, El Gordo’s does sound good right now. I could tear up a chimichanga right now.
Andrew Wilkow: With an ice cold beer? I think we have our post match plan, brother.
Jack Danielson: You damn right we do, but first we gotta win our match and become “Dually” tag team champions! Imagine walking to El Gordo’s with both belts on our shoulder.
Andrew Wilkow: Jorge is gon’ be so excited, I swear. Yee Yee!!!
Jack and Andrew do a big dramatic sounding hi-five that pops our eardrums basically with how loud the clapping noise is. Andrew downs his beer and crushes it over his head, as Jack hands him another and dual fists two beers on his own to “catch up”.
Jack Danielson: Sorry it gotta be this way, Cousin Honey, but it’s the year of Brew Collar and we want those shiny belts ya got. I’ll but you some tacos though if you want!
Andrew Wilkow: You’re such a good cousin, Jacky-boy.
Jack and Andrew open their beers and smash them together before downing them. They begin to hoot, holler, and jump around chanting "Yee Yee" as they head out the door toward for their match.

Limitless Tag Team Title Match HONEY & JANA RIKAR (c) VS. BREW COLLAR Winners and NEW Limitless Tag Team Champions: Brew Collar Jana was just a second to late, the bell ringing to signify new champions! Arya made the official announcement as Wilkow slid in the ring, wrapping Danielson in a big hug before Molly presented them with their new titles. Jana checked on Honey, making sure there was no lasting damage before helping her friend up to her feet. Brew Collar were right there, staring at the former champions before extending their hands in a show of respect. Jana and Honey looked hesitant at first, possibly still disheartened at losing their titles, but sportsmanship shone through as the former champs shook hands with the new champs, Jack and Honey even sharing a hug as the crowd cheered.

“Limitless.” The word comes out in a whisper from the lips of Anna Daniels. A smirk follows shortly afterwards. “Oh, children. It’s such a nice thought, isn’t it? We’ve seen you over the past year thumping your chests and saying I AM Limitless to get some brownie points from Micheal Hayden and perhaps in some small way, to boost your own ego. Every single one of you wants so desperately to believe that you are what you say you are. That you’re the heartbeat of the company. That you are truly are without limits…” A scoff. “But you’re not. And neither was this promotion. It still isn’t.” She sways a bit to and fro, almost as if trying to hypnotize. Maybe she is. It’s hard to say. “Truth is you need limits. You need that glass ceiling. You need somebody who is better than you to determine who is the weak and who is the strong. Who can cut it in this business and who can’t. Who breaks through and who stays smothered. You need limits to define you. You need limits to redefine yourselves. No amount of training can teach you how to do that. One must either evolve...or die.” With these words, the camera follows along as we see exactly the thing that hid so well behind her all this time. It stands cold and strong amongst the landscape, chiseled into a familiar shape. A marble proxy of Jacky Rex Daniels himself, all squinty eyes and scowling, dignity and madness. Yet despite the stillness of the figure, she touches it much like flesh and bone. Her hands slowly creep up the chest of the statue, her skin turning into scales, her hands gaining their own shape. Serpentine eyes and deadly fangs wrap around each other to wrap around his neck. An embrace. “In this view, it was certainly no surprise to us when our Mad King, our beloved, became YOUR Limitless champion. Because really, who else embodies such a thought in this entire roster--or even the entire multiverse--than he? 2019 was a breakout year for our Jacky. It was the year he evolved and became a man, a husband, a champion. With his mere presence, he turned a normal title into a world title with all the skill the alchemists wish they had. Even now, his star rises in the sky.” She looks up as if seeing the very star she references before looking at the stoney stare with every bit of warmth the lover can give. It would be lovely if it wasn’t so damn creepy. Even as she inches closer and plants her lips on his, the feeling doesn’t go away until her hands become hands again and slide away from the monument. And with a nod to the lens, she continues. “But for every star that rises, there’s another that falls. In this particular case, it just so happened to be the star of Harley Torres. Our twitter son. He didn’t make it easy, no. He’s evolved some since we’ve met. He’s went to the darkness and emerged from the other side wiser. More confident. He still has his moments of moodyness but he makes us a proud twitter mom. PROUD TWITTER MOM!” And from the way her eyes light up and the giant smile on her lips, Anna is indeed a proud twitter mom...until the entire look s l o w l y fades into confusion. Then it mold into mild frustration. “...except twitter mom isn’t here. She cannot be here. She’s fallen asleep and in her place? Is us. We have made quite a living evolving. We have broken through glass ceilings over and again to make our marks everywhere. We’ve won far too many belts. We’ve proven ourselves. Or at least, that’s what everybody else sees. They say “you’re already respected, Anna. You’re already a proven commodity. You’re already a draw. You’re already a star.” But the darkness grows. We are overshadowed. Ignored. Erased. And even though we know that the sight is clouded and even though everything erodes…” She breathes in and breathes out. Hard. “The logic in our head isn’t helping anymore. It no longer eases the pain. It no longer soothes the soul. It no longer satiates our lust, blood or otherwise. Unlike the fraudulent, we truly are limitless. Contorter of rules, smasher of boundaries. And it’s time.” Her arms spread wide and out of literal nowhere, one of the many members of the Apocalypse Suite slides into the frame. If he noticed the camera, he didn’t show it though how could you without any facial features to speak of? He slides the robes of a Time Lord on her body without so much as a sound. “Time to put it all on display.”
BACK TO ONE The amateur angle tells us right away that we’re looking at Harley Torres via his iPhone that he’s holding in his hand. His surroundings are dark, unremarkable. The hoodie over his head couldn’t be more emo unless he had some obscure indie song playing to set a depressing mood. But he probably hasn’t figured out how to play from Spotify while also filming, or he’s too lazy to load it up before pressing record. He takes a very deliberate breath, letting it out with an exaggerated huff. HARLEY TORRES “So that’s it. You end the reign of the worst champion of all time, you represent the company, you take on the challengers put before you, and then you lose and it’s on to the next. Or some shit like that.”Harley shakes his head, dying to find even the slightest bit of humor in the situation. After all, he looks on the bright side now, doesn’t he? HARLEY TORRES “I get it. I’m jumping to conclusions. I’m blowing it completely out of proportion. Who knows? Maybe this new dude will actually give me a rematch for the belt. Maybe it doesn’t matter. Hayden’s gone. Skye’s… she’s gone. I barely hear from Elijah after I fucked up his relationship. Feels like even Diego has been avoiding me.”Yes. In case you were wondering, he knows exactly how pathetic he sounds right now. It’s the real reason he looks disgusted. Not because Jacky took his title, not because all of those people are ignoring him. HARLEY TORRES “This isn’t the first time this has happened. It’s not like I’m in foreign territory or anything like that. Back in the day, I pushed people away. I was a dumb kid with my first boyfriend and things spiraled out of control pretty quick. Caleb and Aaron were casualties. Then he was a casualty… worse, he was replaceable. So, that’s what I did. I replaced my boyfriend. Of course he broke up with me. Treat someone like they don’t matter and they’ll think they don’t matter.With a sigh, Harley leans his head back against the wall and looks off into the darkness shrouding him. HARLEY TORRES “Maybe that’s what I did here. Maybe I didn’t make it clear how much being Limitless Champion meant to me. Maybe showing up, maybe representing the company, maybe doing everything that Joe Stanton didn’t do isn’t what they want from me. Maybe it’s time I stop being who I think everyone wants me to be. Maybe… just maybe I give them what they don’t want. That seems to be the cool thing to do. Would you cheer for that? Would you hug me like you did him when he took what was mine? Would you check on him like you didn’t check on me? Huh, Anna?”Harley asks the question with genuine curiosity, staring into his phone almost desperate for an immediate response from the woman who isn’t present at the moment. After only a moment, though, his face contorts with the return of disgust. HARLEY TORRES “Nevermind. I don’t care what anyone else wants anymore.”He ends the video abruptly, sending us to blackness.

Backstage at the arena and the cameras cut to Duke’s office where Maxx Bennet, already in her controversial ring gear, sits perched on the corner. She’s filing her nails and seemingly quite content in waiting for the man of the hour, occasionally looking up to give the camera man eyes. But mostly she just seems to be hanging out and waiting, thankfully the position she’s chosen to sit in means if she were to have another wardrobe ‘malfunction’ the Limitless fans would be saved from another lip slip incident.
She wouldn't have to wait long however, Duke was walking on scene, heading towards his office only to stop as he saw Maxx outside of it.
Duke Fontenot: "People actually wait around here?"
Teasing the blonde, he was pulling his keys from his pocket to unlock that office. Pushing up from the wall she smiled broadly, leaning on her top toes to look over his shoulder.
Maxx Bennett: “I ain’t just anybody you know…”
She set back to let him open the door and follows him in with a casual gait.
Maxx Bennett: “besides, how am I gonna be teachers pet if I upset you on my first day?!”
Snorting at her antics, the looming Cajun cracked open his mini fridge once he got in there and grabbed two grape juices before closing it. Setting one aside on that oak desk for her, he moved to sit in that high back leather chair.
Duke Fontenot: "You're a good kid, Maxx. What's on your mind? How can Uncle Duke help you?"
Dropping into the other chair in the room and popping her straw into the juice box with a grateful smile she sipped it before answering.
Maxx Bennett: “Well I been thinking bout them things we talked bout and I figure I should make it real clear that I am mooooreeeee than happy to be having your back. I don’t mean to blow smile up your ass or anything but I ain’t under any misguided impressions that people around here know how to behave sooooo..”
Leaving forward a little in her chair she smiles sweetly at him.
Maxx Bennett: “I’m just here to make my intention of being a gold star employee clear.”
Duke Fontenot: “Honesty’s appreciated, Kiddo. We uh, we’ve been able to find a happy medium with the people who didn’t want to act right initially.”
Pause. Beat.
Duke Fontenot: “I think you see what’s going on.”
She bats her eyelashes in that big doe eyed way that she has, someone pulling off hyper sexual and innocent all at once.
Maxx Bennett: “Nah not me… I keep to my own business like people should.”
Duke Fontenot: “Should, but never do. Still, your offer is appreciated, and your loyalty is noted. Don’t you worry ya’ pretty head off. I’ve already got a plan for you if you shine in that rumble, Firecracker.”
Shrugging those broad shoulders, he opened up a drawer in that desk, plucking a stack of stapled papers off the top before plunking it in front of her, before grabbing one of those G2 finetips from the Saints Coffee Cup on his desk and placing it on top.
Duke Fontenot: “Look it over, have your lawyer look it over. Sign it, then bring it back when you’re ready.”
Grinning she slides the contract over to herself and actually cuddles it against her chest with an emphatic nod.
Maxx Bennett: “okay but you gotta take it back when I bring it you can’t change your mind now it ain’t allowed!!!”
Jumping up from her seat she’s almost vibrating with excitement.
Maxx Bennett: “I ain’t gonna let you down just you wait and see.”
At the very least, he was amused by her energy, waving her on towards the exit of his office.
Duke Fontenot: “Go on then, get out there and show’em what you can do.”
Nodding she left his office and closed the door behind her, pausing for a moment to look down at the papers in her hands before wandering off down the hall on her merry way.
Down that hallway strolled none other than the Lion of Chiraq himself, his eyes forward, that indomitable smirk across his face He didn't know why the camera crew followed him, but he didn't really care as he moved with that John Wayne swagger, riiight until he rounded a corner and met someone he had to actually look up to face.
Michael Murtagh: "So, you gonna move or be moved?"
For the second time tonight, Duke had been met with one of the interlopers who started shit in his freshly founded Kingdom. The camera was rounding the corner to capture it as the Cajun loomed over the Chiraqi with that mirthless smile on his face, watching him while his hands stayed in the pockets of that jacket.
Duke Fontenot: "Non, Mon Ami, I ain't moving nowhere. You are, though."
Michael Murtagh: "You think so, huh?"
Duke Fontenot: "I'd be willing to bet the whole farm on i--"
There it came. That right handed bomb came out of nowhere, dropping the Cajun to the ground, a hand lifting to his split lip, but right as Murtagh went to gloat? Duke was sending the heel of his boot right into the Chiraqi's groin, causing a nearly indecipherable noise to leave him as he clutched his balls, doubled over on pain.
Or he was, until a blur moved across the camera! Elijah Cross! He was grabbing Murtagh by the side of the head, driving his rising knee right into his ear, bowling him into the hallway wall. Using the handfulls of hair he still had in his possession, Elijah bounced his head off that wall with the kind of cracking sound that hinted the fight was over before it even well and truly started.
Blood on the wall, Murtagh in a crumpled heap, Elijah turned to help Duke up.
Duke Fontenot: "That knee was pretty as a picture, Elijah."
Elijah Cross: "Thanks.. Boss."
Turning towards Murtagh, a sneer crossed that face as Elijah shook his head.
Elijah Cross: "That was for Hayden, you shit."
Duke just clapped his shoulder right before he sent a size thirteen boot tight into Murtagh's temple, emulating the soccer kick that earned him the Shoot Crown title. Once that was done? The man crouched, moving the bloodied hair from his bruising face.
Duke Fontenot: "Starting a fight with a man in his own home, Boy? Ya mama shoulda raised you better."
Giving a look into the camera as that last sentence was spoken, he smacked the man's cheek before standing, checking his now bloodied lip before.. yep, another kick was sent to his ribs.
Duke Fontenot: "Get him the fuck out of here."

MAIN EVENT RED CARPET RUMBLE Maxx Bennett vs. Erik Holland vs. Jazmin Davis vs. Maverick vs. Damien Miri vs. Astro vs. Skye Healy vs. Siobhan Mahoney vs. Arturo Lujan vs. Jacky Rex Daniels Arya Stone took center stage, announcing the first ever RED CARPET RUMBLE. Quickly going over the rules, Arya reminded fans that the winner would receive a shot at the Limitless World Champion, though there was a twist. If Jacky Rex Daniels won the match, he would get the honor of choosing his own opponent for a later date. With that out of the way, all eyes turned towards the entrance way, excited to see who would enter first. Winner: Jacky Rex Daniels The bell rang as Jacky continued to laugh, referee Molly Wheeler presenting him with the Limitless World Title. Skye came to on the outside, refusing help from the students as she glared at the champ. Making her way to the back, Skye paused at the entrance way before glancing back, greeted with the visual of Jacky waving at her, Limitless Title held close to his face as the show drew to a close.
