(The EMF logo flashes on the screen.)

(We open to the darken arena as pyrotechnics blasts on the stage. The lights turn on as the fans yell, and wave their signs. The camera gets a few shots of the crowd. The camera zooms out to display the location information. We get one more shot of the crowd as the commentators speak over the shot.)

JR-Welcome to Saturday Shockwave. I’m good ol’ JR, Jim Ross.

King-Tonight the Maledictum will take on the team of Aari Maxwell, and Travis Vortex.

Kris Gaffney-Aari and Travis worked well in the past, they probably are hoping that they can turn back time.

King-Time machine reference, nice.

JR-Lets get started with the first match

(“Just another victim” blasts on the PA system. Tazz walks out on the stage, and he walks down to the ring, and he steps inside of the ring.)

JR-Tazz hasn’t been seen in a long time.

King-Maybe because he’s so short?

Kris Gaffney-HA!

(“Game On” blasts on the PA system. Tony Ikeda walks out on the stage, and he steps inside of the ring.)

JR-Tony Ikeda looks like he seen a ghost.

King-Although, considering he’s old he might not know what he’s looking at.

Kris Gaffney-HA! He’s old!

JR-These two have had quite the history.

King-Most of it bad, BADDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

(“I am greatness” blasts on the PA system. Roman Reigns walks out on the stage, and he motions

JR-Roman Reigns says that while Ragnar holds the faith in the old gods, he doesn’t have god mode on his side.

Kris Gaffney-Like the Konami code?

King-Probably more than that…

The arena lights dim, plunging the space into an anticipatory darkness. A hushed silence falls over the crowd, broken only by the distant sound of thunder. Suddenly, the opening notes of "Medieval Viking Music - For Honor (Ft. Peyton Parrish)" resonate through the speakers, their haunting melody echoing in the vastness of the arena.
As the music swells, the titantron flickers to life, displaying a mist-covered Nordic landscape. Towering mountains and dense, shadowy forests under a twilight sky fill the screen, creating an atmosphere of ancient, rugged wilderness.
Amidst this mystical backdrop, scenes of Viking lore begin to unfold on the titantron. Images of longships sailing through stormy seas, warriors brandishing shields and axes, and ethereal figures of Valkyries descending from the heavens captivate the audience, weaving a tale of epic battles and Norse mythology.
A deep, bellowing horn sounds, reminiscent of a Gjallarhorn, heralding the approach of a warrior. The crowd stirs with excitement as a lone figure emerges from the backstage, his silhouette imposing and powerful.
Ragnar Ayerswindale steps into the light, his figure colossal and commanding. He stands for a moment at the top of the ramp, surveying the arena with a calm, unyielding gaze. His attire, a fusion of traditional Viking elements and modern combat gear, complements his muscular build, and Norse runes glint on his gear under the arena lights.
As he begins his descent down the ramp, the music intensifies. The titantron shows images of thunderous battles juxtaposed with serene, majestic landscapes of the Nordic fjords, symbolizing the duality of Ragnar's nature – both a fierce warrior and a stoic guardian of ancient traditions.
Ragnar's movements are deliberate and measured, exuding confidence and a sense of purpose. He occasionally pauses to make eye contact with fans, his expression unchanging, an embodiment of the calm before the storm.
Reaching the ring, Ragnar ascends the steel steps with ease. He stands on the apron for a moment, closing his eyes as if to draw strength from the gods themselves. Then, with a swift and fluid motion, he steps over the top rope and enters the ring.
The music reaches a crescendo, and Ragnar raises his arms, acknowledging the crowd and the arena. The Norse imagery on the titantron gives way to a single, ancient rune, glowing brightly as if imbued with mystical power.
As the music fades and the lights return to normal, Ragnar begins his pre-match ritual, a silent nod to the Viking warriors of old. The arena buzzes with anticipation, the presence of this modern-day Viking leaving an indelible mark on all who witness his entrance.

JR-Ragnar Ayerswindale is going to be challenged in the power department in this match.

King-It’s not the first time that’s happened.

Kris Gaffney-We’ll see how he reacts to that.

[Roman Reigns and Ragnar Ayerswindale stand in the middle of the ring. Ragnar Ayerswindale throw fists to the face, Ragnar Ayerswindale is gaining the advantage, and he whips Roman Reigns to the ropes, but it’s reversed by Roman Reigns. Ragnar Ayerswindale bounces off of the ropes. Ragnar Ayerswindale leaps in the air, and he connects with a flying shoulder block.

Ragnar gets up to his feet, and he connects with a few stomps on the downed Roman Reigns.]

JR-Ragnar tried to end this with a spear, but Roman Reigns know a thing or two about that.

JR-It seems that Roman Reigns is looking to go for a spear of his own.

King-Ragnar probably isn’t a fan.

Kris Gaffney-probably not.

[Roman Reigns goes for the spear, but Ragnar is able to catch it, Ragnar turns it into a small package on Reigns. The ref counts 1………….2…………..3!!]

JR-With incredible timing, Ragnar is able to get the victory.

(“Radio” blasts on the PA system. Zack Ryder walks out on the stage with his web camera. He walks down the isle, and into the ring.)

JR-Zack Ryder is going up against the Extreme Champion.

King-The Dungeon Master has been extremely difficult to defeat.

Kris Gaffney-That’s for sure.

The arena is plunged into eerie darkness. A single spotlight beams down on the entrance stage, revealing an enormous 20-sided die (D20), its numbers glowing with arcane energy. The haunting opening chords of “Binks’ Sake” start to play, gentle and mysterious, the crowd immediately clapping along.
Suddenly, on the massive LED screen, a colossal animated dragon bursts forth—its scales shimmering violet and gold. It coils and roars, unleashing a torrent of digital flame straight down the ramp. As the fire rushes forward, spotlights follow, making it seem as if the very ramp itself is set ablaze, leading to the ring.
At that moment, from beneath the stage, a ring of real flames erupts. Rising through the fire, guitar in hand and bathed in flickering orange and purple light, stands The Dungeon Master. He strikes a rockstar pose, head thrown back, hair wild, the guitar gleaming across his chest. The arena explodes with cheers.
He launches into a flamboyant air guitar solo, strutting to the music, every step in sync with the rolling animation of the D20, which now tumbles down the ramp in perfect time with his movement—projected to look as if it’s rolling just ahead of him, leading the way to destiny.
Each of his steps triggers a cascade of lighting effects—arcane runes illuminate underfoot, bursts of fireworks erupt from the ramp, and shooting flames flare on either side. He spins and dances, encouraging the crowd to join in, then leaps onto the ring apron, pausing to soak in the roaring energy of the fans.
With a grand flourish, he vaults into the ring, landing center stage in an epic rockstar stance. He rips a final, thunderous strum on his guitar—at that precise moment, golden sparks rain down from the rafters, surrounding him in a shimmering storm, as purple and gold spotlights swirl around the ring.
As the music fades, the dragon on the screen loops and lands atop a mountain of dice, bellowing one last time as flames curl around the frame.
Announcer: Making his way to the ring… hailing from the Astral Plane… but Louder! Weighing in at two hundred and twelve pounds… he is the BARD of BRUTALITY… the MASTER of MAYHEM… THE DUNGEON MASTER!
The Dungeon Master drops to one knee, raises his guitar like a legendary sword, and flashes a wild, infectious grin as the crowd erupts—his legend already unfolding before the match has even begun.

JR-The Dungeon Master is not going to be easy to defeat

King-Neither is listening to his song about the defeat.

Kris Gaffney-That is probably tough.

[Zack Ryder and the Dungeon Master pace around the ring, they lock up.

King-The Dungeon Master is going to look to end this song.

Kris Gaffney- Probably something about Ryder being sick in a bad way.

[The Dungeon Master is slow to get up t his feet, and once he gets up to his feet. The Dungeon Master lifts him up, and then he puts him on to his shoulder, and Zack Ryder connects with a few elbows to the side of the head, and then he pushes him towards the ropes, and he bounces off of the ropes, and the Dungeon Master gets hit with a one man flap jack that sends him flying down on the mat.

JR-Zack Ryder looking to end this match.

King-The Dungeon Master just fell exactly where Zack Ryder needed.

Kris Gaffney-Doesn’t happen to Ryder often, I’ll let him have it….at least he’s not Sol Ruca.

King-That’s true….

[Zack Ryder goes for the Rough Ryder. The Dungeon Master counters, and he connects with the critical Hit!! The Dungeon Master goes into the cover on Zack Ryder. The ref goes into position to make the count. The ref counts 1…………2…………3!!]

JR-Zack Ryder attempted to end it, but ended up back firing.

(As the lights in the arena plunge into darkness, an eerie silence descends over the crowd. The faint sound of wind howling fills the air, sending shivers down spines. Suddenly, the opening notes of "Wolf Totem" by The HU (featuring Jacoby Shaddix) thunder through the speakers, primal and haunting. A blood-red light floods the entrance ramp, illuminating a swirling mist of smoke that creeps along the ground like tendrils of something alive.

The screen above the stage flickers to life, showing the silhouette of a massive wolf prowling through a dark forest. As the beat drops, bursts of flame erupt from the stage, casting wild shadows across the arena. Through the flames and smoke emerges Fenrir Kaine, "The Demonic Werewolf." His imposing frame is silhouetted against the fiery backdrop, his head lowered, and his crimson eyes glinting beneath his hooded brow.

Ring Announcer: Now making his way to the ring! Fighting out of the Shadows of the Abyss! Weighing in at two hundred and ninety-five pounds and standing six feet and four inches tall! He is "The Demonic Werewolf" FENRIR KAINE!

Fenrir’s presence is palpable, an aura of raw, predatory menace that freezes the audience in place. As he begins his slow, deliberate march down the ramp, the flames on stage ignite once more, illuminating his every step. The red lights follow him like a spotlight, casting a sinister glow over his powerful frame. The mist clings to his boots as if the darkness itself refuses to let him go.

He reaches the ring steps and pauses, turning his gaze to the crowd. Their boos and jeers are drowned by the pulsating rhythm of his theme song, yet Fenrir remains unfazed. A low, guttural growl escapes his lips as he climbs the steps and enters the ring.

Once inside, Fenrir moves to the center of the ring, his massive frame towering over the referee. He throws back his head and lets out a bone-chilling howl, synchronized with a final burst of flame erupting from the ring posts. The lights flicker back to full brightness, but the chilling aura lingers as Fenrir Kaine removes his hood and glares out at the crowd with predatory intent.
He moves to his corner, leaning against the turnbuckle like a wolf surveying its prey, waiting for the match to begin. The arena buzzes with tension, every eye fixed on the terrifying force that is Fenrir Kaine.)

[I’m better than you and you know it” Is said over the loud speakers right before Lamb Of God- “Overlord” hits. The crowd erupts in boos as the lighting begins to flash green and gold. The ramp fills with images of money as Azar Vulcan steps out from the back with a smug grin on his face. He stops atop of the ramp laughing at the fans.]

Announcer: Ladies and gentleman, making his way to the ring, weighing in at 215 pounds and standing 5’11”. He is The EMF World Heavyweight Champion, The Best In The World, Azar “Mastermind” Vulcan!

JR-The team of the Maledicum is facing a team of allies.

King-Travis and Aari are no strange to one another, the Maledictum might have to worry if the didn’t have a man that’s already better than everyone else.

Kris Gaffney-Figured…

(Animal sounds echo the arena when the lights go black. The lights turn on green and an image of a giant alligator moves up the ramp, when it gets to the top it bites down, fireworks shoot from the sage and from up in the rafters comes sliding Aari Maxwell comes sliding down. Once close enough he unclips himself, lands in the ring, rolls, jumps up ontop of the ring post and shouts "CRIKEY!" To the fans with his arms out. He jumps, springs off of the rope and does a backflip landing on his feet. Aari "The Zoo Keeper, slides into his corner, bends down wrapping his arms around the ropes with his back on the post smiling as he waits for the match to begin.)

[Lights throughout the arena dim to near darkness, creating an atmosphere of suspense and anticipation. Suddenly, the sound of ticking clocks and whirring gears fills the air, building a sense of intrigue.]

[The entrance ramp and ring are illuminated with swirling lights that mimic the flow of time - colors shifting rapidly as if moving through different eras. Fog machines generate a thick mist across the ramp, adding to the mystical and otherworldly ambiance.]

[From the back emerges "Temporal" Travis Vortex, adorned in his eclectic time-traveler’s gear, with his crucial timepiece prominently displayed. He moves with a confident swagger, occasionally pausing as if momentarily disoriented or lost in time, adding to his eccentric character.]

[As the theme song "Time Has Come Today" by The Chambers Brothers plays, Travis interacts with the audience, sometimes pointing at his watch and gesturing wildly as if explaining a complex theory or a fragment of his latest adventure. His nephew, "Chrono" Charlie Quantum, follows, carrying the precious timepiece and trying to ensure Travis stays on track.]

Beautiful female announcer: "Ladies and gentlemen, presenting the enigma of eras, standing at 6’1” and weighing 210 pounds, the master of temporal tides... Temporal Travis Vortex!"

[Travis makes his way to the ring amidst the vibrant light show, with the fog swirling around him, creating an image of him stepping out of a time portal. Upon reaching the ring, he takes a moment to theatrically adjust his imaginary wristwatch, then leaps onto the apron and over the ropes with agility.]

[Once in the ring, Travis engages the crowd with charismatic gestures, occasionally slipping into his character's erratic mannerisms, while Charlie Quantum stands by, holding the timepiece and watching with a mix of amusement and concern.]

[The lights gradually stabilize as Travis's music fades, leaving him in the ring, ready to face his opponent in a match that promises to be as unpredictable and entertaining as his entrance.]

JR-As mentioned Travis and Aari probably have less experience with each other.

King-If they were going against anyone else I’d say we could see if they could make it work…but NOPE doesn’t work.

Kris Gaffney-So their the anti X-Pac and Road Dogg.

[Aari Maxwell and Fenrir Kaine pace around the ring, and they lock up. Aari Maxwell is able to get around Fenrir Kaine, and he connects with a few clubbing blows Fenrir Kaine.

Aari Maxwell runs otward sthe ropes, and he spring boards off of it, and he connects with a spring board cutter on Fenrir Kaine, and Aari Maxwell makes the tag to Travis Vortex, and he connects with a few fists to the face, and he whips Fenrir Kaine, and he connects with a hip toss, and then a hurricanarana to complete the time twist. Travis Vortex goes into the cover on Fenrir Kaine the ref goes into position to make the count. The ref counts 1……….2………KICK OUT by Fenrir Kaine. Travis Vortex connects with a few stomps on the downed Fenrir Kaine.]

JR-Aari Maxwell was able to put Fenrir Kaine off center.

King-Well they do have someone with a time machine on their team.

Kris Gaffney-Crikey!

[Fenrir Kaine is slow to get up to his feet, and Fenrir Kaine connects with a super kick that puts down Travis Vortex, and Fenrir Kaine makes the tag to Azar Vulcan. Azar Vulcan steps inside of the ring. Azar Vulcan connects with a few knife edge chops to the chest that echo through out the arena. Azar Vulcan whips Travis Vortex to the ropes, and Azar Vulcan connects with a running knee to the gut that pus down Travis Vortex. Travis Vortex is slow to get up to his feet, and once he gets up tohis feet, Azar Vulcan kicks Travis Vortex in the gut, and he sets him up, and he connects with a brain buster. Azar gets up, and he connects with a spring board moonsault!! Azar Vulcan goes into the cover on Travis Vortex. The ref goes into position to make the count. The ref counts 1…………2……..KICK OUT by Travis!!]

JR-Travis Vortex was able to kick out at the last moment.

King-Travis might be wondering when can he get back to the lab.

[Azar Vulcan makes the tag to Fenrir Kaine, Travis Vortex gets whipped to the ropes, and he bounces off o the ropes, and he gets thrown in the air, but Travis Vortex counters with a small package pin on Fenrir Kaine. The ref counts 1…………..2…………3!!]

JR-Fenrir Kaine makes a big mistake.

King-I think it’s Aari and Fenrir who made the mistake since…the other team has someone whos better than them!

(Travis and Aar rolls out of the ring as Azar stares them down as Shockwave goes off the air.)
