Previously.
Sitting on the dock of a bay in the middle of the night, Israel Grimwolf has his feet dipped into the water. His ship is docked and there’s no crew. He’s all alone and contemplating the situation he’s found himself in. Next to him on the dock is the OSW World Championship.
Just then, the sound of someone walking along the wooden planks towards him comes to a sudden stop from behind.
“Your name wasn’t ever in my book,” the voice says, as if he’s there wanting answers.
Grimwolf turns around, finding Deathnote stood behind him.
“No, me hearty, it wouldn’t have been,” he admits.
Deathnote reluctantly and carefully takes a seat next to him.
“Long before The Nekken wrapped his tentacles around me heart, I was a pirate during the golden age,” he says to a surprised Deathnote. “Four hundred years before, the world was a different place.”
“You’re immortal,” Deathnote concludes.
“Ye,” Grimwolf nods in reply. “Alas, my name shall never appear in ye book. I still begged him not to kill me.”
There’s a silence.
“I’ve spent years with no-one but The Nekken in my heart, trappin’ sailors and draggin’ them to the deep. He was the first person I cared about, me hearty. He was the first person I truly believed was a friend.”
Deathnote clicks his fingers, and his book appears on his lap. He flicks open a few pages, as if he knows exactly where he must go.
“Cael Gable,” he reads, finding the right line with his finger. “Day of Death: Red Snow, 2022. You don’t have long to decide whether he’s friend or foe, Captain.”
Grimwolf gulps.
Cut.
ISRAEL GRIMWOLF vs. SIGIL vs. VIPER ROBERTS vs. SIR BELLATOR
Last night, we lost a Champion.
Viper Roberts, Wiz and Simon entered the competition, but only Viper Roberts managed to remain.
Voynich was the casualty.
Tonight, three more enter the fray and look to retain their place in Wrestle Heroes for tomorrow.
We’re already guaranteed at least one new Champion come Night Five. Who’s to come and who’ll remain?
It’s Tuesday Night Wrestle Heroes…
Let’s go.
A low pulsing purple glow fills the Slaughterhouse, pulsing in time with the music of “Wolf Totem”. Dry ice fills the entrance stage, coloured purple from the lighting. The gravelly sound of Mongolian Throat singing cuts through the atmosphere and we see the hulking frame of the Indestructible Mountain as the chanting announces his arrival.
He breathes in the incense of his lifeforce, his eyes rolling to the back of his head. When he opens them once more, his eyes are trained on the ring. Slowly, he makes his descent.
The lights turn blood-red as the sounds of a million down-tuned guitars crash into eachother like the most violent accident you’ve ever seen. SeeSaw slowly walks through the curtain, a sinister smile on his face, as he puts his hands behind his back and stares at the ground.
Suddenly, the music changes. The house lights turn on, and there’s multi-colored spotlights spinning around the arena. SeeSaw looks back up, gets down on a knee, and starts to wave toward the crowd with a far less sinister smile.
“I want to love everyone, empty every bullet out of every gun, please take – me – back to where we began – badababah…”
“GIMME GIMME ME BLOODY, PLEASE GIVE ME BLOODY!”
Blood-colored lights. Down-tuned guitars from hell. And SeeSaw slams his fist down against the stage before jumping back up.
“YOU CAN GET DOWN ON YOUR KNEES IF YOU’RE NAUGHTY!”
With that sinister smile re-appearing, he quickly skips his way down the aisle, cackling the entire way, before reaching the ring.
“Foreboding” plays and Corvus steps out into The Slaughterhouse. He points his arms to the sky then throws down two smoke bombs. When the smoke clears Corvus has disappeared. Cut to the ring where Corvus has taken a knee on one of the top turnbuckles. Another smoke bomb clouds the vision and when it dissipates Corvus is stood centre of the ring.
The bell sounds and immediately Corvus and Sigil meet in the middle of the ring, slugging it out.
The last they saw each other, Sigil was left to die in the arms of Zero.
We still don’t know what happened after, but I’m sure we’ll find out over the course of Wrestle Heroes.
They trade right and left hands, Sigil getting the upper hand and beating Corvus back into the corner. He slams him with repeated Shoulder Barges, eventually stepping back and running up for another…
CORVUS LEAPS OVER HIM, ROLLING ACROSS HIS BACK!
He drops down the other side.
CORVUS KICK!
FLASH KICK TO SIGIL!
He immediately slams back into the corner. Before Corvus can act, here comes Banzan, barrelling like a fucking freight train!
CORNER SPLASH TO SIGIL!
CORVUS ROLLED AWAY!
The Crow hops back to his feet…
SUPERFINE TURBINE BLAST!
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOREEEEEEEE!
Corvus is nearly taken out of his fucking boots with that one. Grimwolf is quickly into the fray, pulling Banzan out of the corner and into a massive Back Drop. He pops back up, taking a kick to the gut by Sir Bellator, who drills him with a DDT.
This is fast paced action.
SeeSaw is back to his feet now and spins Bellator, running him backwards into the ropes. He whips him across the ring, leaping forward with a Clothesline.
NO!
Bellator ducks underneath.
PELE KICK! PELE KICK TO THE SKULL OF MR. MAKE BELIEVE!
The Rewind Champion immediately pulls him back to his feet and dumps him over the top rope!
SEESAW HAS BEEN ELIMINATED!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
HE HOLDS ON!
Sir Bellator goes to grab him…
HUNG UP ON THE TOP ROPE!
He bounces backwards, being spun by Corvus who tosses HIM over the top rope too! BELLATOR LANDS EXPERTLY ON THE RING APRON!
Corvus rushes forward with a right hand, but it’s ducked.
HEADBUTT STUMBLES HIM BACKWARDS!
SIGIL OPENS A PORTAL…
SPINS CORVUS…
AND TOSSES HIM THROUGH THAT FUCKING THING!
FATALITY!?
ANOTHER PORTAL OPENS OVER THE TOP ROPE AND CORVUS TUMBLES OUT OF IT TO THE OUTSIDE! OH MY FUCKING GOD! OH MY GOD!
SIGIL ELIMINATES CORVUS!
The Crow looks back furiously, his eyes angrier than we’ve ever seen them, only he doesn’t have a moment to reflect…
SUICIDE DIVE THROUGH THE MIDDLE ROPE BY SIGIL!
THE COLLECTOR IS GOING AFTER HIM!
Sigil stumbles Corvus with the dive and both men begin brawling up the entrance ramp. What the fuck is going on? Sigil is still in this thing. He hasn’t been eliminated!
As they brawl to the backstage, we go back to the ring and just in time to see Banzan with a TIGER CLAW!
FIVE POINT PALM STRIKE TO ISRAEL GRIMWOLF!
The Mountain rushes across the ring and grabs SeeSaw.
SAITO SUPLEX!
DUKKHA!
Banzan is on fucking fire! He pops back to his feet and turns around to see Viper Roberts…
SNAKE OIL! SNAKE OIL BY ROBERTS! ONCE AGAIN, HE’S BEEN LOW KEY AS FUCK! WHAT A SNAKE!
Banzan stumble, trying to get his bearings…
SNAKEBITE!
WRAPAROUND NECKBREAKER!
Roberts immediately swivels back to a knee with a smirk on his face. He’s been playing the long game and keeping himself under the radar, but he’s right in the thick of things now.
DROPKICK TO THE KNEELING ROBERTS! SIR BELLATOR OUT OF FUCKING NOWHERE!
Bellator pulls him back to his feet and tosses him over the top rope!
VIPER ROBERTS HAS BEEN ELIMINATED!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
HE TOO HANGS ON!
The Knight backs up and runs at him…
SEESAW WITH A BIG BOOT NEARLY TAKES HIS FUCKING HEAD OFF!
Roberts steps back through the ropes, cockily strutting back into the ring like he’s the shit.
CLOTHESLINE OVER THE TOP ROPE BY SEESAW!
HOLY FUCKING SHIT!
HOLY FUCKING SHIT!
SEESAW JUST ELIMINATED THE FORMER OSW WORLD CHAMPION!
WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK IS HAPPENING!?
This is unbelievable.
Sigil has vanished with Corvus.
Viper Roberts and Corvus have both been eliminated.
We’re down to Israel Grimwolf, Sir Bellator, SeeSaw and Banzan.
One of these has gotta go.
All four men are back to their feet now in the middle of the ring. They know exactly what comes next. One has to be eliminated for the others to be safe for another night. Sigil isn’t here – he’s fighting for his life backstage with Corvus. He gets a bye, for now.
Grimwolf and SeeSaw lock up.
Banzan runs at Bellator, nailing him with a Clothesline.
We focus on those, as Banzan pulls the Rewind Champion to his feet and slams him into the corner. Right hands follow until a big boot to the gut stops them dead in their tracks.
Banzan doubles over…
DISCIPLE MAKER!
DISCIPLE MAKER BY SIR BELLATOR!
HE FUCKING DRILLS THE MOUNTAIN!
Grimwolf meanwhile ducks a Clothesline by SeeSaw..
DEAD…
MANS…
CHEST!
HEAAAARTTTT PUNCH! SEESAW CRUMBLES IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FUCKING RING!
The Captain spots Bellator getting back to his feet and TOSSES HIM OVER THE TOP ROPE!
ONLY BELLATOR SWIVELS AROUND IT LIKE A FUCKING GYMNAST AND ENDS UP BACK INSIDE THE RING!
HE TIPS GRIMWOLF OVER THE TOP!
THE WORLD CHAMPION HAS BEEN ELIMINATED!
OH MY GOD!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
HE LANDS ON THE RING APRON!
Bellator backs up into the ropes… he’s looking for a Baseball Slide…
He rushes across the ring…
MAGGGGGGGAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!
KINSASHA OUT OF FUCKING NO-WHERE BY BANZAN! BANZAN ALMOST TAKES BELLATORS FUCKING HEAD OFF!!
The Mountain gets back to his feet. He’s ready to eliminate Sir Bellator and pulls him back up, only Grimwolf comes from behind with an Axe Handle that smashes them both into one another.
He quickly grabs Banzan and tosses him over the top rope!
THE BELL SOUNDS! IT’S OVER!
Wrestle Heroes night II has concluded!
What a fucking journey. Corvus, SeeSaw and Banzan entered the fray here tonight and Corvus, Banzan and Viper Roberts left it.
That’s two former OSW World Champions eliminated tonight.
That’s three former OSW World Champions in two nights…. Eliminated.
Israel Grimwolf, Sigil, Sir Renault and SeeSaw live to fight another day.
They’ll return tomorrow night.
Who’ll join them?
Previously.
Luke Storm’s home.
Licking their wounds after that brutal attack by Jet Set Radio at Red Snow, bMf aren’t used to being on the receiving end of beat-downs. All three sit in the living room with beers, drinking in absolute silence, until Pyre interrupts.
“Can you hear it?” She asks, listening in carefully.
There’s a distant sound of something we can’t quite make out.
Both Zero and Storm try to listen in, then look at one another.
“It was just a matter of time, wasn’t it?” She asks, placing her beer down on the table.
“There’s gotta be something we can do,” Zero says in a panic. “There’s gotta be somethin’?”
Pyre walks over to him, grabbing his beer and drinking the rest of it.
They both smile.
“I’ll kill him,” Luke storm intervenes, as Zero and Pyre embrace in a hug. “I’ll kill him for what he’s done to you.”
“He’s no use to us dead,” Pyre reminds him.
“What do you want us to do?” Zero asks.
“Find me a way out. Don’t leave me there to rot,” she asks.
Suddenly, we can hear what she heard earlier.
The sirens.
Police cars pull up abruptly outside and footsteps trundle towards the doorway with haste. bMf look at each other, watching as the door is kicked in and officer storm inside, guns drawn.
Pyre immediately puts her hands into the air, being taken into custody. As the police read her her rights, Zero and Luke Storm back away to side bar, under the watchful eyes of the cops.
“At Revolt, you can have first crack at the cunt,” Zero says with a nod.
“Good, but first, we need to recruit someone to balance things out,” Storm replies. Zero immediately goes to speak, but he’s cut off. “It’s not a fucking replacement, I promise you. It’s an addition; the problem is, you ain’t gonna like it.”
Cut.
