(Choose Your Own Titleventure!)
Date Held: Sunday, September 8, 2024
Report Posted: Friday, September 13, 2024
Location: "Peter Venkman Memorial Arena" in Westchester, New York.
Red and gold pyro signal the start of tonight's show and bring the fans to their feet. They become ecstatic when Jean Carter suddenly comes out to ringside wearing a "Back to School" shirt and riding a beautiful white horse with caramel brown spots!! She looks a bit nervous but her excitement is fueling the adrenaline it takes to continues riding to ringside. She dismounts, breathes a sigh of relief, feeds the horse a sugar cube and an apple, then rolls into the ring with a microphone. A burly man in overalls quickly comes down to ringside and begins leading the horse backstage.
[Jean:] "And that's for all the neigh-sayers* who doubted we'd ever come back!!"
(*credit: DK)
[Jean:] "We have an incredible show tonight and I want us to get started soon. But this is a special moment for us, folks. So I just wanted you to see the look in my eyes and know this is what we've been building toward all year. Yeah, we had a hiccup last year but we just added more horsepower to this tour. And I'm not just talking about my new friend Molasses!"
*Jean blows a kiss to the horse who lifts his tail and neighs in response.*
[Jean:] "As excited as I am for the next few months, how we end this year will pale in comparison to how we start the next one. But a lot of the roster has unfinished business: rivalries that have lasted a few years and, in some cases, even a decade. We also have four women that want to prove to us that they are the future of OG-Joshi as we build to our 20th Anniversary. So let's do what we do best by starting tonight with the next chapter in a rivalry that has helped define this place!"
Jean walks backstage to cheers. A few minutes later, Lynn "Lina" Malloy comes out to a thunderous ovation and feeds off the crowd's energy. She's running up to audience members with high-fives and posing for pictures with kids. A huge "Welcome back, Lina" (clap clap clapclapclap) chant propels her into the ring. The energy in the arena becomes even more electric as Eris Byrne saunters out to the stage. The crowd chants: "Byrne our retinas!" (clap clap clapclapclap) which is...just a bizarre chant but kind of flattering, I guess? Eris smirks and rolls her eyes, seemingly appreciating the energy and respect that they are giving her. But her gaze turns dead serious when she eyes her long-time rival who is standing cross-armed in the middle of the ring. Eris slowly walks down to the ring, savoring the moment but not showing any hesitation. Lina doesn't give up any ground but patiently waits for Eris to step through the ropes into the ring. The two get right up into each other's faces with dueling steely-eyed look and the crowd reaction becomes meteoric. At this rate, the fans are gonna need a healthy dose of electrolytes to finish the night!
Match 1 - Lina vs. Eris Byrne
*POST MATCH SPOILERS*
Eris is down on the mat, having passed out from a combination of blood loss and the tiltawhirl torturerack that Lina applied. Lina is holding herself up by the ropes in the corner, trying to regain her own full balance and recapture her breath.
The Ravenstone that Eris delivered earlier certainly took its toll on Lina. However, a second attempt at it was expertly evaded, allowing Lina the opening she needed to finish the match.
Lina gets just enough energy to raise her hands in victory and then leaves to go backstage as the fans cheer for her. As Eris slowly wakes back up, she calls over the referee to explain what happened. Azumi says that she ended the match when Eris fell unconscious. Eris refuses medical help and leaves the ring on her own accord, clearly frustrated at the situation.
Lina (O) [Tiltawhirl Torturerack - 16:21] (X) Eris Byrne
Rose Moreno makes her entrance next: eliciting an intensely passionate reaction from some fans but more subtle enthusiasm from others. The ones firmly in her corner came with signs saying things like "Rose will save OG-Joshi again!" and "Sic Rose on ubble next!" She looks appreciative but humbled at the support and gets into the ring. Megan William comes out next to a general sense of apathy. There are a few signs that are less than flattering such as "Canada M'ehg returns!" and "'Ruby Jr: Destiny Lite' edition." Megan briefly looks at the signs, shakes her head and laughs in a patronizing way, then walks to the ring. Rose and Megan lock eyes and Rose offers a handshake. Megan walks forward and accepts it. She puts her other hand on Rose's shoulder and whispers: "let's make her proud." Rose nods and says: "us too." The bell rings and the action begins.
Match 2 - Rose Moreno vs. Megan Williams
*POST MATCH SPOILERS*
Megan walks away with an impressive and decisive win over her career rival. Whether or not the finish was solely due to a crucial mistake by Rose though is a valid question. Some would say that Rose should have attempted a pin after landing the knock-out punch, but instead she tried to run the ropes to score with yet another high impact move. Unfortunately, her impulsivity led to a collision with Azumi Oonishi, who is usually quite aware of her proximity to the combatants. Rose's momentum stalled and Megan took advantage. She then won the match with Rose's own "Angel Wings" finisher.
Rose Moreno (X) ["Angel Wings" - 15:03] (O) Megan Williams
The next match features the four members of the EMERGE roster who advanced to Round 2 of the Showcase Tournament. Tonight, River Reade and Aria Holt are set to face Cassandra Carter and Hanako. However, they all walk out individually to the ring. The "partners" on each side seem just as wary of each other as they are their opponents.
That is because in their Round 2 matches next month, River is set to face Aria and Cassandra is set to face Hanako. However, there is one incentive that each team has to winning, in addition to the standard bragging rights. The team that wins this match earns the main event spot to face each other at the November ASFS event.
It's unclear as to how much this stipulation is actually improving the cooperation of each team though. From their body language, River and Aria seem to have a slightly higher level of trust with each other than Cassandra and Hanako. But members of both teams are having difficulty staying calm while discussing strategy and choosing who will start first. River and Aria settle on "rock, paper, scissors" which is not a great choice for Aria given River's gambling background. River wins the game an astounding nine out of nine times. Hanako resorts to a much more basic strategy in claiming her spot to start: using her bulk to bump Cassandra through the ropes onto the apron.
Match 3 - River Reade/Aria Holt vs. Hanako/Cassandra Carter
From the get go, Hanako is being disrespectful to everyone. "Celebratory" snot rockets are not quite the standard for starting OG-Joshi tag matches. If they were, Yoyo Banzai or Lori Cuozzo would have likely been the progenitors of that particular tradition. But River Reade is unfazed at Hanako's antics and seems disinterested in the intentions behind it: whether pure impulse or intimidation. Having spent a lot of time at casinos, River has seen far worse behavior: albeit from people more inebriated and less dangerous than Hanako. However, River proceeds to wrestle circles around her with takedowns and arm holds, while Cassandra berates Hanako for embarrassing their team. This causes intense anger on Hanako's part which actually seems to help her focus. She's able to finally grab River and push her hard across the ring toward her corner.
Aria takes the opportunity to tag herself in which River is less than pleased about. Holt shrugs and immediately makes a bee line toward Hanako. River used her speed, agility, and knowledge of attack angles to make early headway but Aria took a piercing straight line approach to battle with her opponent. Hanako seemed to enjoy this chance to face a more stationary target, but didn't necessarily get the better of the exchange. Aria was a house'a'fire with stiff punches to the face and chest which threw the larger Hanako off balance. Despite Hanako's strength advantage, she faltered against Aria's relentless barrage of adrenaline and face punches! The fans were really getting into Aria's energy, cheering her on as she mounted the turnbuckles and delivered blistering punches to Hanako's forehead. Suddenly, Cassandra started to berate the referee for allowing these "fisticuffs to despoil the match." This angered Aria which provided a key distraction for Hanako to take advantage of. She immediately powerbombed Aria causing a seismic shift in momentum.
Hanako wasn't fully satisfied though at this turn around though. She marched over to Cassandra and actually yelled at her for intervening, despite the clear and necessary assistance given. Cassandra put her hands on her hips and arched her back with mock outrage, loudly laughed, then quickly tagged herself in to press the advantage for her team. Hanako begrudgingly accepted this tactic, seeming to realize that she needed the rest anyway, but still bumped Carter on the way out.
Cassandra ignored this and immediately went to work keeping Aria grounded with various holds targeting her back. A camel clutch gave Cassandra the chance to taunt Aria, which may not have been the best idea as it spurred her to her feet. However, the crafty Cassandra took the opportunity to turn this into a rear naked choke and brought Aria right back down again. The fans were chanting for Aria to make another rally but Cassandra kept her cool and focused her weight on Aria's pressure points so that she could not functionally fight back. It looked like Cassandra could earn the victory after transitioning the rear naked choke into a mounted DDT, but Aria kicked out. Cassandra went right back into another rear naked choke.
Hanako yelled out "Yer doing it wrong!" but Cassandra just shot back a dismissive look. This enraged Hanako who actually got into the ring and pulled both women closer to her corner with a grunt. River came in but Hanako already got back on the apron, so Azumi had to send River back as well. Hanako immediately tagged Cassandra, who was furious at this ploy. She initially refused to let go of the hold, but out of anger for Hanako rather than punishment of Aria.
Finally, her cooler head prevailed and she let go, but not without slightly tripping Hanako on their way past each other. Hanako responded with a huge push to Cassandra, sending her over the ropes and onto the floor. This exchange further backfired and gave Aria enough time to make the tag to Reade! River jumped over the ropes and scored with a huge running dropkick to Hanako: not knocking her over but sending her into the corner. River than grabbed Hanako's arm. climbed the ropes, and jumped down into an armbreaker. River climbed the ropes again and hit "Aces High," the Stardust Press she used to defeat Marcelline Louvel. However, Hanako kicked out and the impact from the splash may have affected River just as much.
Both women were slow to get up. Hanako lunges forward with a lariat but it doesn't have full strength due to the damage it sustained from River's targeted assault throughout the match. Hanako picks her up and stubbornly attempts a second lariat, but River sees it coming and kicks Hanako's arm. Hanako howls in pain. River is still affected by the lariat, so she plays it smart and tags Aria back in. From the opposite side of the ring, Cassandra is yelling at Hanako to do the same. Hanako refuses to walk over and make the tag but she has no problem turning her attention to Cassandra to jaw at her.
Aria does the math and immediately puts the distracted Hanako into her specialty "Codi Llaw" - a hybrid half-nelson/choke maneuver. Hanako tries shaking it off but she lacks the technical ability to escape. Her resilience and strength keep her in it until Cassandra vaults over the top rope and runs to try to break it up. She is intercepted by River who delivers a running kick right to her face. Aria, growing impatient with Hanako's resistance but sensing an opportunity, quickly releases the hold with a ripcord motion. Hanako is free but worn down and dazed. Aria absolutely crushes Hanako's forehead and nose with a "Pen Haearn" headbutt. This cuts the monstrous Hanako down to size and Aria scores the pin.
River Reade/Aria Holt (O) [ - 25:21] (X) Hanako/Cassandra Carter
Aria celebrates the victory as River looks on from the apron, nodding and clapping her hands with a smirk. She offers a handshake which Aria accepts as the two stare each other down. Cassandra has gotten up and walked over to the unconscious Hanako who appears to have a broken nose. The medical team comes to assist her and Cassandra actually looks concerned. But as soon as Hanako is revived, Cassandra absolutely lays into her with insults and taunts, blaming her for losing the match and promising to defeat her when they face each other. This infuriated Hanako who gets up off the apron, despite her nose gushing with blood, and pushes Cassandra back again. The medical team and security have to separate the two. Cassandra looks exasperated and marches back to the locker room. Hanako does not seem to care that her nose is broken but throws a few chairs around outside the ring for good measure. Someone should really check in on her. Girl, you doing ok?
With copious amounts of blood in the ring, it's a good time to take a break to switch mats!
Intermission
On the "merchandise profitability" front of battle, the "Equine-Nox: Horses of Autumn" title is soundly defeating the "Back to School" one. Horsey T-shirts and hats as far as the eyes can see! Jean Carter was savvy though. She didn't put all her horses in one stable. Paying respect to the other name for our event tonight, she ordered a variety of "Back to School" retro trapper keeper notebooks which are selling quite well. It's not surprising that the former journalist, and secretary of UBL, knows her school and office supplies. It is surprising that so many older fans are indulging in them.
On the "hype up talent" side, "EMERGE" branded gear is doing great after the last match. Kathy Queen merchandise is selling incredibly well but you need to show adult identification in order to purchase it. Apparently there are unique dirty messages created by Kathy scrawled inside each item. Special limited edition "Lina vs. Eris" gear is being sold tonight. It's part of the new "legendary rivalries" line of OG-Joshi gear. Retro "Holly" shirts are being scooped up by collectors. Finally, "KENTA Army" t-shirts manage to still turn a healthy (?) profit.
We turn to the next match as Kathy Queen is set to face an opponent of Robin Walker's choosing.
"Lecher Bitch" by The Genitorturers starts to play as the lights go out, but before it reaches the vocals, the music switches to "Light My Fire" by the Doors, a spotlight shining on Kathy Queen who is carrying a lighter gun and wearing sunglasses a well as her usual jacket and ring gear. She walks down the ramp and the spotlight shows her reaching a brazier with the word "PASSION" engraved on it, Queen using the lighter to ignite the wood and coals in the brazier as the lights go back on and she hands the lighter to a ring crew member. She circles the ring slowly, stopping at someone apparently at random in the crowd. She exchanges some words with him (which our lawyers assure us was confirming he was over 18 and was willing for what happened next) she starts making out with him for a few seconds before placing her sunglasses on the heavily blushing young man and slipping him what we later find out was a gift voucher for Bad Dragon. She blows the lucky fellow a kiss before slipping in the ring, pointing to the brazier as the music fades.
A few minutes pass until Robin Walker shows up on stage. When her music hits, the crowd goes wild. However, they quickly become alarmed because she's wearing a full body bubble protective suit complete with N-95 mask. She looks more like a CDC worker about to encounter the next patient zero than a professional wrestler looking to taunt her rival. Robin points to the back and out walks the Viral Vixen of OG-Joshi onto the (soon to be vigorously cleaned) entrance ramp.
Sandy Morton!
*The crowd collectively forces down its instinct to retch at this sight. For her part, Sandy ignores them and begins slowly walking down to the ring. She looks...rough. Sloppy drunk without the drink. Hot mess without the temp. On her way to the ring, someone tried to call her a cab to go home. We haven't seen Sandy in years, and neither has the health care system.
Just before the bell rings, Queen slips out of the ropes and goes for a mic.*
[Kathy:] "Sandy Morton. I had a hunch that it'd be you I'd be up against. I mean, what better cautionary tale for how my career could go so, so wrong. Didn't you have a falling out with Holly, though? You must really need the money to have taken this match. How much is she paying you? I know she doesn't have the bank she used to, but she probably could do a favor for a friend. How much will it last you? A year? A month? A week?
And when that money dries up, what will you have to fall back on? Nobody in any entertainment industry wants anything to do with you. And sure women of your age can wrap pretty young boys around their finger to get whatever they want but... all the other cougars around you are getting much more attention aren't they? And you know why that is, Sandy?
Because they have success, they have personality, they have charm and they have something very very sexy... confidence. You have none of these traits... you're just a body whose beauty is slowly but inevitably withering away. I know I'll get old too but even in the unlikely event that my charms won't fail, I'll always have the love of my King. And you... will be all alone, after all, this is Holly's last favor for you and I know for a fact that Linda Parker hasn't spoken to you in years.
But speaking of Linda Parker... she's your positive takeaway in all this. Because when people talk of you Sandy, they talk of wasted potential. You were a great athlete, and you could get it done in the ring, but your lack of passion held you back. Linda, she was held in less regard. I hear she once tried to pin someone while they were face down and the referee had to explain to her for a full minute that it didn't count. And people gave up on her even quicker than they did you but one day she took a look in the mirror and made a change for the better. For as much I dislike how she got there, even I cannot deny she's made something of herself. She won't have to worry where her next check is coming from. But you can't say the same, can you?
This match is your last chance, Morton. Not just for your career, but your entire life. You can make this a match that will turn everything around. And if you do that I will send you to heaven and make you a star. Not only will we both be satisfied... mmm... so will all the fans. They'll be begging for more. Promoters will want to hire you again and your 8 by 10s will be on walls all over the world.
But if you treat this as you have treated the rest of your life up until now Sandy... I'll give you sensations you've never felt before... but I will deny you satisfaction, just as you have denied me mine. I'll have my King and my future match with Holly. But you? No promoter will want to hire you, no men will want to sleep with you. And even if someone gives you a pity fuck it just won't do it for you again. Because after you were denied by the hardest working woman in professional wrestling, nobody else will get you off again."
*Queen climbs the steps, slipping through the ropes, rubbing suggestively up against them before entering the ring fully.*
[Kathy:] "Either way it's your call... I am dressed to thrill... and to kill. So which will it be Sandy? Are you going to prove me wrong? Or are you going to prove everyone who ever wrote you off as a joke wrong?"
*Queen drops the mic, walking up to Sandy, and delivers a vicious slap across the face, staring into her eyes as the match begins*
Match 4 - Kathy Queen vs. Sandy Morton
It should have hurt, right? That was one helluva slap delivered by an expert striker. Sandy barely flinched though. Was it fighting spirit? Expert resiliency? Some hidden technique that allowed her to move her face away a milliisecond before the attack to avoid it? No, home girl just has zero feeling in her face.
Sandy smiles a mostly toothy grin, and then spits her new loose tooth right into Kathy's face.
The crowd gives a collective "ewwwwww."
(And that's "ewwww" not "ecwwwwww")
Kathy actually recoils at this disgusting breach of dental hygiene. This gives Sandy the opportunity to deliver a big "Camel Toe" kick right to Kathy's midsection. There's some sauce to it too. Sandy immediately hits a DDT and goes for the cover. She is not successful but, hey, this is Sandy Morton. Earning a quick 2 count on Kathy Queen ain't bad at all!
Unfortunately for Sandy, that's the highlight of her performance. It's all downhill afterward.
Kathy gets up quicker than Sandy. That 2 count seemed the result of surprise rather than heavy damage. Sandy has a little trouble standing up, favoring her back. She gets up on one knee and Kathy grabs her face and spikes it to the mat with her own version of Robin's "Loser's Lunch". This earns a two count and maybe would have been a three but Kathy breaks the pin.
She starts berating Sandy but this appears futile. Sandy has been called worse, in worse situations, and by worse people. Kathy quickly intuits this by the smile on Sandy's face and goes back to physically punishing her.
Kathy avoids striking the face due to the aforementioned "ewww" factor and begins punishing Sandy's midsection and thighs. Sandy is actually able to absorb some of this punishment as this is the area with the most developed muscle. However, she has no real defense or counters and eventually is worn down by blistering kicks and burning single leg crabs.
(...no. I'm not making the joke.)
Kathy picks Sandy up the mat and attempts a backdrop, but Sandy kisses her on the face! This surprises Kathy enough for Sandy to hit her old finisher: the "RK-HO" ... on herself. Yep, Sandy went down too quickly ...
(Again, I'm not making the joke.)
Sandy fell down too quickly and neglected to take Kathy's face with her to the mat. After landing on her already battered butt ...
(...you get the point)
After falling down on an area heavily targeted by Kathy, Sandy has some trouble getting up and looks to be dazed. Kathy looks to the stage where Robin has been watching this whole time. Robin shrugs back at Kathy who returns a smirk and points to Sandy. Kathy then does the unthinkable. The unimaginable. The abominable.
Kathy kicks Sandy flat on her back, then maneuvers herself into a triangle choke between Sandy's thighs. Robin, through her protective gear, shouts at Sandy to choke Kathy out. Sandy has zero idea how to put a serviceable triangle choke on, but it does not seem like she's actually 'doing the work' here. Rather, Kathy appears to be uh, let's say 'using the triangle choke against Sandy." Sandy's pulverized pelvis and thundered thighs are unable to actually squeeze Kathy's head or offer any resistance to this pink triangle assault. Robin can not believe her eyes and some fans are shielding theirs. Kathy's gestures are probing but generous. Firm but delicate. Sandy's eyes are rolling back in her head and drool appears on her chin.
And...there it is. Sandy justfapped tapped out.
Kathy Queen (O) ["Technical Submission" - ] (X) Sandy Morton
After the bell, Kathy continues to apply her... let's call it a "Technical Submission" until Azumi, hearing something in her earpiece, finally goes and pulls them apart to the disappointment of some of the members of the crowd.
(You can guess which ones based on the shirts they bought...)
*Kathy doesn't seem to be too fazed by any of this and calls for a mic.*
[Kathy:] "This is just a taste of what's to come in the new OG-Joshi. More chaos, more memorable moments, and I will bring every single woman I get in the ring with to climaxes they've never reached before."
*She looks over to Sandy, who is still trying to... let's say recover from the "Technical Submission"
[Kathy:] "As for you, Sandy... the Queen rewards good girls and you've been a -very- good girl for the Ace of Spades. But there's just two small problems... if I give you your reward here OG-Joshi will probably get shut down... and more importantly, those who serve at the Queen's pleasure get rewarded after the Queen's pleasure. But don't worry, you're getting your happy ending..."
*Queen then scoops Sandy up in a bridal carry, leaving the ring and heading up the ramp with her, giving a wink to Robin before heading to the back. Robin does nothing to stop this nor gives any indication that she would want to even if she wasn't wearing the hazmat suit. Mostly, it seems like Robin accepts that Kathy won this round and appears amused at the gamesmanship.*
Intermission 2
Nope, not another merchandise update. The ring crew just decided, completely coincidentally and unprompted, to change the ring mat and disinfect every other surface of the ring, ropes, turnbuckles, post, apron, and floor. This took a good fifteen minutes but the fans seemed quite patient and understanding. No one purchased or consumed any food during this break.*
"Kick 'em When He's Down" plays on the speakers as members of the crowd practically jump out of their skeletons to get on their feet. Robin Walker, notably missing her full body protective gear from earlier, saunters out to the entrance ramp and soaks in the moment. She looks out to the crowd and mouths to herself "welcome home, bitch" then proudly walks down the ramp to the ring. After doing some light stretching and suggestive poses to make the crowd hard, she turns her attention to the ramp to see who Kathy Queen has chosen to challenge her.
"Lecher Bitch" by the Genitorturers plays as Kathy Queen emerges from the back, wearing tight jeans, a Mistakonic University jacket, and underneath the jacket a shirt with eyeballs in two very specific places, and a mic in hand.
[Kathy:] "You know, usually when I keep girls in suspense, it involves ropes. I had to put some thought into this. I considered KANABO, the woman I faced the night before our tag match. I considered giving a boost to Lumpy Martinez, a youngster someone with passion for this sport. I even considered Bonnie Blair... she's to me what Jo Ryder is to you, figured it'd be a neat little parallel. But that would involve me TALKING to her and... well, would you want to ever call Jo Ryder and ask her for a favor? You can see why I didn't go that route. But what made me make my decision is that despite you being 100% in the right to lash out at me you still apologized... and as a way to show my gratitude for that I decided to give you the best opponent I could find. I went for an OG-Joshi alumnus. Someone I've faced before with title implications but someone you've never faced before."
*Queen gives a bit of a smirk.*
[Kathy:] "You may have noticed Jean Carter's been in a really good mood today. Well, it wasn't because Luke Kisiera finally put his quest item in her inventory slot. Holly Walker... welcome to Gutter."
*"Threshold" by Slayer hit as the crowd cheered at the surprise, Gutter coming in through the crowd, wearing her trademark worn out, oversized and unwashed gear. Robin's eyes go wide as she appears genuinely in shock at this choice. The official is quick to check Gutter for weapons before she climbs to the top rope and poses for the crowd before the match begins.*
Match 5 - Robin Walker vs. Gutter
*POST MATCH SPOILERS*
Robin Walker put on display the two things she was always known for in the ring: her resiliency and ability to suddenly end a match with Loser's Lunch. She desperately needed both tonight as Gutter threw everything at her and almost achieved victory a half dozen times. Robin persevered despite being one DDT away from her head permanently merging with the ring mat. Gutter made a statement here that she could come back on any given night and knock anyone's sh*t around.
Robin Walker (O) ["Loser's Lunch" - 18:59] (X) Gutter
Robin Walker is initially slow to get to her feet after scoring the pin. She takes a deep breath and then roars in victory as she wills her body off the mat. The crowd erupts in applause as Robin leans herself against the corner and starts clapping. She looks in Gutter's direction and nods, clapping genuinely at her, and then looks around the entire ring and the fans. She requests a microphone and a ring hand brings it to her. Robin starts to speak but stops, having to catch her breath. Another ring hand brings her a bottle of water. Robin pours some on her head then takes a long swig and wipes her mouth.
[Robin:] "Looks like I dragged my mind out of the gutter for once."
*Robin smirks.*
[Robin:] "Yeah, I broke months of silence with that, but it was worth it. Don't lie - you were all in suspense, right? Why wasn't that Robin Walker bitch, of all people, talking after what happened last year? Well, turns out that I actually wanted my wrestling to do the talking tonight, and I wanted my winning to answer the questions you all have for me. Cause everything I have to say about last year, I already said to my family. What I just did out here for the past twenty minutes proves I'm fine and have already moved on. So I'm putting every one of you on notice that the Ace of OG-Joshi is back where I belong.
But you know what? Jean's right about the whole autumn thing. It's getting a little nippy outside these days. So Kathy hun... how bout we get real cozy this December? Let's warm up the ring for what OG-Joshi has planned for next year. You love the leather, after all, right? Let's you and I get fitted for some."
*Robin winks then leaves the ring to passionate applause from the fans.*
And with that, the kids are back in school and the horses are back in the stables! Everyone is happy! OG-Joshi will come to you next in November for the last stop of the "After School Fun Special Tour." Then we'll see you at the OG-FPD Anniversary Show!

Location: "Peter Venkman Memorial Arena" in Westchester, New York.
Red and gold pyro signal the start of tonight's show and bring the fans to their feet. They become ecstatic when Jean Carter suddenly comes out to ringside wearing a "Back to School" shirt and riding a beautiful white horse with caramel brown spots!! She looks a bit nervous but her excitement is fueling the adrenaline it takes to continues riding to ringside. She dismounts, breathes a sigh of relief, feeds the horse a sugar cube and an apple, then rolls into the ring with a microphone. A burly man in overalls quickly comes down to ringside and begins leading the horse backstage.
[Jean:] "And that's for all the neigh-sayers* who doubted we'd ever come back!!"
(*credit: DK)
[Jean:] "We have an incredible show tonight and I want us to get started soon. But this is a special moment for us, folks. So I just wanted you to see the look in my eyes and know this is what we've been building toward all year. Yeah, we had a hiccup last year but we just added more horsepower to this tour. And I'm not just talking about my new friend Molasses!"
*Jean blows a kiss to the horse who lifts his tail and neighs in response.*
[Jean:] "As excited as I am for the next few months, how we end this year will pale in comparison to how we start the next one. But a lot of the roster has unfinished business: rivalries that have lasted a few years and, in some cases, even a decade. We also have four women that want to prove to us that they are the future of OG-Joshi as we build to our 20th Anniversary. So let's do what we do best by starting tonight with the next chapter in a rivalry that has helped define this place!"
Jean walks backstage to cheers. A few minutes later, Lynn "Lina" Malloy comes out to a thunderous ovation and feeds off the crowd's energy. She's running up to audience members with high-fives and posing for pictures with kids. A huge "Welcome back, Lina" (clap clap clapclapclap) chant propels her into the ring. The energy in the arena becomes even more electric as Eris Byrne saunters out to the stage. The crowd chants: "Byrne our retinas!" (clap clap clapclapclap) which is...just a bizarre chant but kind of flattering, I guess? Eris smirks and rolls her eyes, seemingly appreciating the energy and respect that they are giving her. But her gaze turns dead serious when she eyes her long-time rival who is standing cross-armed in the middle of the ring. Eris slowly walks down to the ring, savoring the moment but not showing any hesitation. Lina doesn't give up any ground but patiently waits for Eris to step through the ropes into the ring. The two get right up into each other's faces with dueling steely-eyed look and the crowd reaction becomes meteoric. At this rate, the fans are gonna need a healthy dose of electrolytes to finish the night!
Match 1 - Lina vs. Eris Byrne
*POST MATCH SPOILERS*
Eris is down on the mat, having passed out from a combination of blood loss and the tiltawhirl torturerack that Lina applied. Lina is holding herself up by the ropes in the corner, trying to regain her own full balance and recapture her breath.
The Ravenstone that Eris delivered earlier certainly took its toll on Lina. However, a second attempt at it was expertly evaded, allowing Lina the opening she needed to finish the match.
Lina gets just enough energy to raise her hands in victory and then leaves to go backstage as the fans cheer for her. As Eris slowly wakes back up, she calls over the referee to explain what happened. Azumi says that she ended the match when Eris fell unconscious. Eris refuses medical help and leaves the ring on her own accord, clearly frustrated at the situation.
Lina (O) [Tiltawhirl Torturerack - 16:21] (X) Eris Byrne
Rose Moreno makes her entrance next: eliciting an intensely passionate reaction from some fans but more subtle enthusiasm from others. The ones firmly in her corner came with signs saying things like "Rose will save OG-Joshi again!" and "Sic Rose on ubble next!" She looks appreciative but humbled at the support and gets into the ring. Megan William comes out next to a general sense of apathy. There are a few signs that are less than flattering such as "Canada M'ehg returns!" and "'Ruby Jr: Destiny Lite' edition." Megan briefly looks at the signs, shakes her head and laughs in a patronizing way, then walks to the ring. Rose and Megan lock eyes and Rose offers a handshake. Megan walks forward and accepts it. She puts her other hand on Rose's shoulder and whispers: "let's make her proud." Rose nods and says: "us too." The bell rings and the action begins.
Match 2 - Rose Moreno vs. Megan Williams
*POST MATCH SPOILERS*
Megan walks away with an impressive and decisive win over her career rival. Whether or not the finish was solely due to a crucial mistake by Rose though is a valid question. Some would say that Rose should have attempted a pin after landing the knock-out punch, but instead she tried to run the ropes to score with yet another high impact move. Unfortunately, her impulsivity led to a collision with Azumi Oonishi, who is usually quite aware of her proximity to the combatants. Rose's momentum stalled and Megan took advantage. She then won the match with Rose's own "Angel Wings" finisher.
Rose Moreno (X) ["Angel Wings" - 15:03] (O) Megan Williams
The next match features the four members of the EMERGE roster who advanced to Round 2 of the Showcase Tournament. Tonight, River Reade and Aria Holt are set to face Cassandra Carter and Hanako. However, they all walk out individually to the ring. The "partners" on each side seem just as wary of each other as they are their opponents.
That is because in their Round 2 matches next month, River is set to face Aria and Cassandra is set to face Hanako. However, there is one incentive that each team has to winning, in addition to the standard bragging rights. The team that wins this match earns the main event spot to face each other at the November ASFS event.
It's unclear as to how much this stipulation is actually improving the cooperation of each team though. From their body language, River and Aria seem to have a slightly higher level of trust with each other than Cassandra and Hanako. But members of both teams are having difficulty staying calm while discussing strategy and choosing who will start first. River and Aria settle on "rock, paper, scissors" which is not a great choice for Aria given River's gambling background. River wins the game an astounding nine out of nine times. Hanako resorts to a much more basic strategy in claiming her spot to start: using her bulk to bump Cassandra through the ropes onto the apron.
Match 3 - River Reade/Aria Holt vs. Hanako/Cassandra Carter
From the get go, Hanako is being disrespectful to everyone. "Celebratory" snot rockets are not quite the standard for starting OG-Joshi tag matches. If they were, Yoyo Banzai or Lori Cuozzo would have likely been the progenitors of that particular tradition. But River Reade is unfazed at Hanako's antics and seems disinterested in the intentions behind it: whether pure impulse or intimidation. Having spent a lot of time at casinos, River has seen far worse behavior: albeit from people more inebriated and less dangerous than Hanako. However, River proceeds to wrestle circles around her with takedowns and arm holds, while Cassandra berates Hanako for embarrassing their team. This causes intense anger on Hanako's part which actually seems to help her focus. She's able to finally grab River and push her hard across the ring toward her corner.
Aria takes the opportunity to tag herself in which River is less than pleased about. Holt shrugs and immediately makes a bee line toward Hanako. River used her speed, agility, and knowledge of attack angles to make early headway but Aria took a piercing straight line approach to battle with her opponent. Hanako seemed to enjoy this chance to face a more stationary target, but didn't necessarily get the better of the exchange. Aria was a house'a'fire with stiff punches to the face and chest which threw the larger Hanako off balance. Despite Hanako's strength advantage, she faltered against Aria's relentless barrage of adrenaline and face punches! The fans were really getting into Aria's energy, cheering her on as she mounted the turnbuckles and delivered blistering punches to Hanako's forehead. Suddenly, Cassandra started to berate the referee for allowing these "fisticuffs to despoil the match." This angered Aria which provided a key distraction for Hanako to take advantage of. She immediately powerbombed Aria causing a seismic shift in momentum.
Hanako wasn't fully satisfied though at this turn around though. She marched over to Cassandra and actually yelled at her for intervening, despite the clear and necessary assistance given. Cassandra put her hands on her hips and arched her back with mock outrage, loudly laughed, then quickly tagged herself in to press the advantage for her team. Hanako begrudgingly accepted this tactic, seeming to realize that she needed the rest anyway, but still bumped Carter on the way out.
Cassandra ignored this and immediately went to work keeping Aria grounded with various holds targeting her back. A camel clutch gave Cassandra the chance to taunt Aria, which may not have been the best idea as it spurred her to her feet. However, the crafty Cassandra took the opportunity to turn this into a rear naked choke and brought Aria right back down again. The fans were chanting for Aria to make another rally but Cassandra kept her cool and focused her weight on Aria's pressure points so that she could not functionally fight back. It looked like Cassandra could earn the victory after transitioning the rear naked choke into a mounted DDT, but Aria kicked out. Cassandra went right back into another rear naked choke.
Hanako yelled out "Yer doing it wrong!" but Cassandra just shot back a dismissive look. This enraged Hanako who actually got into the ring and pulled both women closer to her corner with a grunt. River came in but Hanako already got back on the apron, so Azumi had to send River back as well. Hanako immediately tagged Cassandra, who was furious at this ploy. She initially refused to let go of the hold, but out of anger for Hanako rather than punishment of Aria.
Finally, her cooler head prevailed and she let go, but not without slightly tripping Hanako on their way past each other. Hanako responded with a huge push to Cassandra, sending her over the ropes and onto the floor. This exchange further backfired and gave Aria enough time to make the tag to Reade! River jumped over the ropes and scored with a huge running dropkick to Hanako: not knocking her over but sending her into the corner. River than grabbed Hanako's arm. climbed the ropes, and jumped down into an armbreaker. River climbed the ropes again and hit "Aces High," the Stardust Press she used to defeat Marcelline Louvel. However, Hanako kicked out and the impact from the splash may have affected River just as much.
Both women were slow to get up. Hanako lunges forward with a lariat but it doesn't have full strength due to the damage it sustained from River's targeted assault throughout the match. Hanako picks her up and stubbornly attempts a second lariat, but River sees it coming and kicks Hanako's arm. Hanako howls in pain. River is still affected by the lariat, so she plays it smart and tags Aria back in. From the opposite side of the ring, Cassandra is yelling at Hanako to do the same. Hanako refuses to walk over and make the tag but she has no problem turning her attention to Cassandra to jaw at her.
Aria does the math and immediately puts the distracted Hanako into her specialty "Codi Llaw" - a hybrid half-nelson/choke maneuver. Hanako tries shaking it off but she lacks the technical ability to escape. Her resilience and strength keep her in it until Cassandra vaults over the top rope and runs to try to break it up. She is intercepted by River who delivers a running kick right to her face. Aria, growing impatient with Hanako's resistance but sensing an opportunity, quickly releases the hold with a ripcord motion. Hanako is free but worn down and dazed. Aria absolutely crushes Hanako's forehead and nose with a "Pen Haearn" headbutt. This cuts the monstrous Hanako down to size and Aria scores the pin.
River Reade/Aria Holt (O) [ - 25:21] (X) Hanako/Cassandra Carter
Aria celebrates the victory as River looks on from the apron, nodding and clapping her hands with a smirk. She offers a handshake which Aria accepts as the two stare each other down. Cassandra has gotten up and walked over to the unconscious Hanako who appears to have a broken nose. The medical team comes to assist her and Cassandra actually looks concerned. But as soon as Hanako is revived, Cassandra absolutely lays into her with insults and taunts, blaming her for losing the match and promising to defeat her when they face each other. This infuriated Hanako who gets up off the apron, despite her nose gushing with blood, and pushes Cassandra back again. The medical team and security have to separate the two. Cassandra looks exasperated and marches back to the locker room. Hanako does not seem to care that her nose is broken but throws a few chairs around outside the ring for good measure. Someone should really check in on her. Girl, you doing ok?
With copious amounts of blood in the ring, it's a good time to take a break to switch mats!
Intermission
On the "merchandise profitability" front of battle, the "Equine-Nox: Horses of Autumn" title is soundly defeating the "Back to School" one. Horsey T-shirts and hats as far as the eyes can see! Jean Carter was savvy though. She didn't put all her horses in one stable. Paying respect to the other name for our event tonight, she ordered a variety of "Back to School" retro trapper keeper notebooks which are selling quite well. It's not surprising that the former journalist, and secretary of UBL, knows her school and office supplies. It is surprising that so many older fans are indulging in them.
On the "hype up talent" side, "EMERGE" branded gear is doing great after the last match. Kathy Queen merchandise is selling incredibly well but you need to show adult identification in order to purchase it. Apparently there are unique dirty messages created by Kathy scrawled inside each item. Special limited edition "Lina vs. Eris" gear is being sold tonight. It's part of the new "legendary rivalries" line of OG-Joshi gear. Retro "Holly" shirts are being scooped up by collectors. Finally, "KENTA Army" t-shirts manage to still turn a healthy (?) profit.
We turn to the next match as Kathy Queen is set to face an opponent of Robin Walker's choosing.
"Lecher Bitch" by The Genitorturers starts to play as the lights go out, but before it reaches the vocals, the music switches to "Light My Fire" by the Doors, a spotlight shining on Kathy Queen who is carrying a lighter gun and wearing sunglasses a well as her usual jacket and ring gear. She walks down the ramp and the spotlight shows her reaching a brazier with the word "PASSION" engraved on it, Queen using the lighter to ignite the wood and coals in the brazier as the lights go back on and she hands the lighter to a ring crew member. She circles the ring slowly, stopping at someone apparently at random in the crowd. She exchanges some words with him (which our lawyers assure us was confirming he was over 18 and was willing for what happened next) she starts making out with him for a few seconds before placing her sunglasses on the heavily blushing young man and slipping him what we later find out was a gift voucher for Bad Dragon. She blows the lucky fellow a kiss before slipping in the ring, pointing to the brazier as the music fades.
A few minutes pass until Robin Walker shows up on stage. When her music hits, the crowd goes wild. However, they quickly become alarmed because she's wearing a full body bubble protective suit complete with N-95 mask. She looks more like a CDC worker about to encounter the next patient zero than a professional wrestler looking to taunt her rival. Robin points to the back and out walks the Viral Vixen of OG-Joshi onto the (soon to be vigorously cleaned) entrance ramp.
Sandy Morton!
*The crowd collectively forces down its instinct to retch at this sight. For her part, Sandy ignores them and begins slowly walking down to the ring. She looks...rough. Sloppy drunk without the drink. Hot mess without the temp. On her way to the ring, someone tried to call her a cab to go home. We haven't seen Sandy in years, and neither has the health care system.
Just before the bell rings, Queen slips out of the ropes and goes for a mic.*
[Kathy:] "Sandy Morton. I had a hunch that it'd be you I'd be up against. I mean, what better cautionary tale for how my career could go so, so wrong. Didn't you have a falling out with Holly, though? You must really need the money to have taken this match. How much is she paying you? I know she doesn't have the bank she used to, but she probably could do a favor for a friend. How much will it last you? A year? A month? A week?
And when that money dries up, what will you have to fall back on? Nobody in any entertainment industry wants anything to do with you. And sure women of your age can wrap pretty young boys around their finger to get whatever they want but... all the other cougars around you are getting much more attention aren't they? And you know why that is, Sandy?
Because they have success, they have personality, they have charm and they have something very very sexy... confidence. You have none of these traits... you're just a body whose beauty is slowly but inevitably withering away. I know I'll get old too but even in the unlikely event that my charms won't fail, I'll always have the love of my King. And you... will be all alone, after all, this is Holly's last favor for you and I know for a fact that Linda Parker hasn't spoken to you in years.
But speaking of Linda Parker... she's your positive takeaway in all this. Because when people talk of you Sandy, they talk of wasted potential. You were a great athlete, and you could get it done in the ring, but your lack of passion held you back. Linda, she was held in less regard. I hear she once tried to pin someone while they were face down and the referee had to explain to her for a full minute that it didn't count. And people gave up on her even quicker than they did you but one day she took a look in the mirror and made a change for the better. For as much I dislike how she got there, even I cannot deny she's made something of herself. She won't have to worry where her next check is coming from. But you can't say the same, can you?
This match is your last chance, Morton. Not just for your career, but your entire life. You can make this a match that will turn everything around. And if you do that I will send you to heaven and make you a star. Not only will we both be satisfied... mmm... so will all the fans. They'll be begging for more. Promoters will want to hire you again and your 8 by 10s will be on walls all over the world.
But if you treat this as you have treated the rest of your life up until now Sandy... I'll give you sensations you've never felt before... but I will deny you satisfaction, just as you have denied me mine. I'll have my King and my future match with Holly. But you? No promoter will want to hire you, no men will want to sleep with you. And even if someone gives you a pity fuck it just won't do it for you again. Because after you were denied by the hardest working woman in professional wrestling, nobody else will get you off again."
*Queen climbs the steps, slipping through the ropes, rubbing suggestively up against them before entering the ring fully.*
[Kathy:] "Either way it's your call... I am dressed to thrill... and to kill. So which will it be Sandy? Are you going to prove me wrong? Or are you going to prove everyone who ever wrote you off as a joke wrong?"
*Queen drops the mic, walking up to Sandy, and delivers a vicious slap across the face, staring into her eyes as the match begins*
Match 4 - Kathy Queen vs. Sandy Morton
It should have hurt, right? That was one helluva slap delivered by an expert striker. Sandy barely flinched though. Was it fighting spirit? Expert resiliency? Some hidden technique that allowed her to move her face away a milliisecond before the attack to avoid it? No, home girl just has zero feeling in her face.
Sandy smiles a mostly toothy grin, and then spits her new loose tooth right into Kathy's face.
The crowd gives a collective "ewwwwww."
(And that's "ewwww" not "ecwwwwww")
Kathy actually recoils at this disgusting breach of dental hygiene. This gives Sandy the opportunity to deliver a big "Camel Toe" kick right to Kathy's midsection. There's some sauce to it too. Sandy immediately hits a DDT and goes for the cover. She is not successful but, hey, this is Sandy Morton. Earning a quick 2 count on Kathy Queen ain't bad at all!
Unfortunately for Sandy, that's the highlight of her performance. It's all downhill afterward.
Kathy gets up quicker than Sandy. That 2 count seemed the result of surprise rather than heavy damage. Sandy has a little trouble standing up, favoring her back. She gets up on one knee and Kathy grabs her face and spikes it to the mat with her own version of Robin's "Loser's Lunch". This earns a two count and maybe would have been a three but Kathy breaks the pin.
She starts berating Sandy but this appears futile. Sandy has been called worse, in worse situations, and by worse people. Kathy quickly intuits this by the smile on Sandy's face and goes back to physically punishing her.
Kathy avoids striking the face due to the aforementioned "ewww" factor and begins punishing Sandy's midsection and thighs. Sandy is actually able to absorb some of this punishment as this is the area with the most developed muscle. However, she has no real defense or counters and eventually is worn down by blistering kicks and burning single leg crabs.
(...no. I'm not making the joke.)
Kathy picks Sandy up the mat and attempts a backdrop, but Sandy kisses her on the face! This surprises Kathy enough for Sandy to hit her old finisher: the "RK-HO" ... on herself. Yep, Sandy went down too quickly ...
(Again, I'm not making the joke.)
Sandy fell down too quickly and neglected to take Kathy's face with her to the mat. After landing on her already battered butt ...
(...you get the point)
After falling down on an area heavily targeted by Kathy, Sandy has some trouble getting up and looks to be dazed. Kathy looks to the stage where Robin has been watching this whole time. Robin shrugs back at Kathy who returns a smirk and points to Sandy. Kathy then does the unthinkable. The unimaginable. The abominable.
Kathy kicks Sandy flat on her back, then maneuvers herself into a triangle choke between Sandy's thighs. Robin, through her protective gear, shouts at Sandy to choke Kathy out. Sandy has zero idea how to put a serviceable triangle choke on, but it does not seem like she's actually 'doing the work' here. Rather, Kathy appears to be uh, let's say 'using the triangle choke against Sandy." Sandy's pulverized pelvis and thundered thighs are unable to actually squeeze Kathy's head or offer any resistance to this pink triangle assault. Robin can not believe her eyes and some fans are shielding theirs. Kathy's gestures are probing but generous. Firm but delicate. Sandy's eyes are rolling back in her head and drool appears on her chin.
And...there it is. Sandy just
Kathy Queen (O) ["Technical Submission" - ] (X) Sandy Morton
After the bell, Kathy continues to apply her... let's call it a "Technical Submission" until Azumi, hearing something in her earpiece, finally goes and pulls them apart to the disappointment of some of the members of the crowd.
(You can guess which ones based on the shirts they bought...)
*Kathy doesn't seem to be too fazed by any of this and calls for a mic.*
[Kathy:] "This is just a taste of what's to come in the new OG-Joshi. More chaos, more memorable moments, and I will bring every single woman I get in the ring with to climaxes they've never reached before."
*She looks over to Sandy, who is still trying to... let's say recover from the "Technical Submission"
[Kathy:] "As for you, Sandy... the Queen rewards good girls and you've been a -very- good girl for the Ace of Spades. But there's just two small problems... if I give you your reward here OG-Joshi will probably get shut down... and more importantly, those who serve at the Queen's pleasure get rewarded after the Queen's pleasure. But don't worry, you're getting your happy ending..."
*Queen then scoops Sandy up in a bridal carry, leaving the ring and heading up the ramp with her, giving a wink to Robin before heading to the back. Robin does nothing to stop this nor gives any indication that she would want to even if she wasn't wearing the hazmat suit. Mostly, it seems like Robin accepts that Kathy won this round and appears amused at the gamesmanship.*
Intermission 2
Nope, not another merchandise update. The ring crew just decided, completely coincidentally and unprompted, to change the ring mat and disinfect every other surface of the ring, ropes, turnbuckles, post, apron, and floor. This took a good fifteen minutes but the fans seemed quite patient and understanding. No one purchased or consumed any food during this break.*
"Kick 'em When He's Down" plays on the speakers as members of the crowd practically jump out of their skeletons to get on their feet. Robin Walker, notably missing her full body protective gear from earlier, saunters out to the entrance ramp and soaks in the moment. She looks out to the crowd and mouths to herself "welcome home, bitch" then proudly walks down the ramp to the ring. After doing some light stretching and suggestive poses to make the crowd hard, she turns her attention to the ramp to see who Kathy Queen has chosen to challenge her.
"Lecher Bitch" by the Genitorturers plays as Kathy Queen emerges from the back, wearing tight jeans, a Mistakonic University jacket, and underneath the jacket a shirt with eyeballs in two very specific places, and a mic in hand.
[Kathy:] "You know, usually when I keep girls in suspense, it involves ropes. I had to put some thought into this. I considered KANABO, the woman I faced the night before our tag match. I considered giving a boost to Lumpy Martinez, a youngster someone with passion for this sport. I even considered Bonnie Blair... she's to me what Jo Ryder is to you, figured it'd be a neat little parallel. But that would involve me TALKING to her and... well, would you want to ever call Jo Ryder and ask her for a favor? You can see why I didn't go that route. But what made me make my decision is that despite you being 100% in the right to lash out at me you still apologized... and as a way to show my gratitude for that I decided to give you the best opponent I could find. I went for an OG-Joshi alumnus. Someone I've faced before with title implications but someone you've never faced before."
*Queen gives a bit of a smirk.*
[Kathy:] "You may have noticed Jean Carter's been in a really good mood today. Well, it wasn't because Luke Kisiera finally put his quest item in her inventory slot. Holly Walker... welcome to Gutter."
*"Threshold" by Slayer hit as the crowd cheered at the surprise, Gutter coming in through the crowd, wearing her trademark worn out, oversized and unwashed gear. Robin's eyes go wide as she appears genuinely in shock at this choice. The official is quick to check Gutter for weapons before she climbs to the top rope and poses for the crowd before the match begins.*
Match 5 - Robin Walker vs. Gutter
*POST MATCH SPOILERS*
Robin Walker put on display the two things she was always known for in the ring: her resiliency and ability to suddenly end a match with Loser's Lunch. She desperately needed both tonight as Gutter threw everything at her and almost achieved victory a half dozen times. Robin persevered despite being one DDT away from her head permanently merging with the ring mat. Gutter made a statement here that she could come back on any given night and knock anyone's sh*t around.
Robin Walker (O) ["Loser's Lunch" - 18:59] (X) Gutter
Robin Walker is initially slow to get to her feet after scoring the pin. She takes a deep breath and then roars in victory as she wills her body off the mat. The crowd erupts in applause as Robin leans herself against the corner and starts clapping. She looks in Gutter's direction and nods, clapping genuinely at her, and then looks around the entire ring and the fans. She requests a microphone and a ring hand brings it to her. Robin starts to speak but stops, having to catch her breath. Another ring hand brings her a bottle of water. Robin pours some on her head then takes a long swig and wipes her mouth.
[Robin:] "Looks like I dragged my mind out of the gutter for once."
*Robin smirks.*
[Robin:] "Yeah, I broke months of silence with that, but it was worth it. Don't lie - you were all in suspense, right? Why wasn't that Robin Walker bitch, of all people, talking after what happened last year? Well, turns out that I actually wanted my wrestling to do the talking tonight, and I wanted my winning to answer the questions you all have for me. Cause everything I have to say about last year, I already said to my family. What I just did out here for the past twenty minutes proves I'm fine and have already moved on. So I'm putting every one of you on notice that the Ace of OG-Joshi is back where I belong.
But you know what? Jean's right about the whole autumn thing. It's getting a little nippy outside these days. So Kathy hun... how bout we get real cozy this December? Let's warm up the ring for what OG-Joshi has planned for next year. You love the leather, after all, right? Let's you and I get fitted for some."
*Robin winks then leaves the ring to passionate applause from the fans.*
And with that, the kids are back in school and the horses are back in the stables! Everyone is happy! OG-Joshi will come to you next in November for the last stop of the "After School Fun Special Tour." Then we'll see you at the OG-FPD Anniversary Show!
