The camera cuts to Robyn.
Robyn: Ladies and gentlemen, it is now time for your MAIN EVENT OF THE EVENING!
The crowd bursts into joyous ovation as the most anticipated match of the show is minutes away.
Robyn: The following contest is a Championship Scramble Match, and it is for the SFT World Heavyweight Championship! The match starts with two participants, with a new participant added in every five minutes. Whoever gets a pinfall or submission will be declared the "current" World Heavyweight Champion. After twenty minutes, whoever gets the last fall will then be declared the official SFT World Heavyweight Champion!
"It's a sin." by the Petshop Boys begins to play as the arena turns a bright purple.
Dawn Lenore Artemisk
The StrikeTron flashes some of Dawn's most recent high impact moves. As she steps out from behind the curtain she gives glances left and right awkwardly, the mask of the scarlet lady concealing her face. She walks down the ramp with the World Title around her waist. The fans give her a mixed reaction, but the dark shirt wearing hardcore crowd cheer her.
Robyn: First making her way to the ring, from an undisclosed location and weighing in at 130 pounds, she is the SFT World Heavyweight Champion, "The Scarlet Lady"...DAWN LENORE ARTEMISK!
Dawn takes a drink from a bottle in her hand before throwing it at the ground. She slips through the ropes and climbs up the nearest turnbuckle. She leans against turnbuckle, grinning at the crowd as she unbuckles her belt and holds it up over her head while spitting fire at them. She hops down and hands her title to officials at ringside as her music fades.
RW: This is as big as it gets, ladies and gentlemen. Dawn is about to head into the biggest match of her career.
JL: Hell Randy, i'd say it's the biggest match all year! She has to fave four other hungry challengers, with two of them being members of her own team!
RW: Many are saying she has no chance of winning, but those same people also thought she would never be World Champion, and look at her now.
JC: All I see is a giant bulls eye that four other wrestlers are going to target tonight.
The lights go out. Mist fills the entrance way. "Monster X" by Werewolf Gangbang begins to play as Apollyon leads Fahrenheit out to the ring. Fahrenheit is wearing the SFT ACTION title around his waist, the way a champion should wear it.
Robyn: And her opponent, from an undisclosed location and weighing in at 257 pounds, he is the SFT Action Champion...FAHRENHEIT!
JC: Now HERE'S someone with a high chance of winning. This Fahrenheit guy is awesome! He took out Evan Corbyn and Jackson Steed with relative ease, and I see him walking away with the World Title here tonight!
RW: He may be gifted with strength and speed, but his lack of experience in comparison to the others may play a factor.
JL: And let's not forget the impending numbers game. If you don't think The Axis are going to team up on Fahrenheit during this match, you're crazy.
JC: He looks like he could take on all four wrestlers by himself. Consider me and my fellow Delights out there official members of team Fahrenheit!
Fahrenheit climbs up onto the apron and removes the belt. He hands the belt to Apollyon before stepping over the top rope and walking to the center of the ring. He stands, menacing, staring down at Dawn with his head tilted slightly to the side. Dawn stands her ground, but even she looks disturbed by the presence of Fahrenheit. As his music fades, the crowd starts cheering Dawn, preferring her over the unknown entity. Apollyon looks to the fans and yells at them to be quiet, but it only makes them louder.
JC: So...don't we need a referee? That's kind how these things work.
JL: I was lead to believe that we had a special guest referee for this match.
RW: Well SOMEBODY better come down here, or we're gonna have an unruly mob.
Robyn: And now, introducing your special guest referee for this match...
The crowd waits in high anticipation for who it could possibly be. Dawn looks towards the entrance, her interest also peaked. Soon an image appears on the StrikeTron and it's none other than Director Wilde.
Wilde: Hello, fans! I know you're all eager for this highly important match to get started, but I still had one thing left to address, and that's the identity of the special guest referee. Now I couldn't have just ANY referee officiate this match, oh no. I had to put it in the hands of someone who knows her share of controversy in the wrestling business.
JC: Did he just say "her"?
Wilde: It took quite a few phone calls, and I had to pay some favors along the way, but it was all worth it to bring her back to SFT. Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome your guest referee...
The screen fades and is replaced with the face of a familiar blue haired child of legends.
RW: NO WAY!
I'm a leader, i'm a winner,
and i'm cleaner.
'Cause i'm awesome.
I don't need you cause i'm neato and I beat you.
'Cause i'm awesome.
That's right!
"Because I'm Awesome" by the Dollyrots continues to play over the P.A. as the arena lights go down to black. The stage lights flash between blue and white, as the one and only Sara Pettis steps out from the back wearing a referee shirt. A spotlight hits her as she stands at the top of the ramp, before "blowing a kiss" into the sky. She starts to walk down the ramp, with the spotlight following her, slapping hands with fans on both sides.
JC: I don't believe this!
JL: I never thought we'd ever see her again!
RW: Ladies and gentlemen, Sara Pettis is BACK in SFT!
JC: And she looks twice as hot as when she left!
When Pettis gets to the bottom the arena lights come back up, as she climbs the stairs and enters the ring. Dawn's eyes widen with shock while Fahrenheit looks at Sara with little interest. Sara waves hello to Dawn before climbing a turnbuckle and blowing kisses to her long time fans.
"WELCOME BACK! WELCOME BACK! WELCOME BACK! WELCOME BACK!"
Sara steps down and looks at both Dawn and Fahrenheit. When she decides that both wrestler look ready, Pettis calls for the bell. It rings, and the match is official.
RW: And here we go!
JL: I'm still shocked about Sara, but there's no time to settle!
JC: Dawn's thinking the same thing.
The champ starts things off by attacking Fahrenheit with strong right hands to the face. Fahrenheit shrugs off these punches and simply shoves Dawn into a turnbuckle. Artemisk pushes herself off the turnbuckle and knocks Fahrenheit back with a couple more right hands, but a quick jab to the throat knocks the champ off her feet. Fahrenheit grabs Dawn and lifts her up. He then scoops her up and slams her down with ferocity. Dawn grabs the small of her back as she gets back up, and the Action Champ continue his assault by nailing her with a headbutt. Dawn falls to one knee, but Fahrenheit beings her right back up again. He whips Dawn into another turnbuckle, then charges forward and clotheslines her so hard that her feet lift off the ground. Fahrenheit looks over at Apollyon who claps with approval.
RW: And Fahrenheit is going to town on the champ.
JC: Just like I knew he would. It's like Apollyon has been saying, this guy is a machine and he won't stop until he wins.
JL: I've seen plenty of machines break down in the past.
Fahrenheit turns back to Dawn and pulls her up to her feet. He drags her over to the center of the ring and lifts her up for another slam, but Artemisk manages to wiggle herself behind Fahrenheit and apply a sleeper hold submission. Fahrenheit twists and turns, but the champ keeps a firm grasp on the hold. After awhile Fahrenheit's movements start to slow down and he falls to one knee. Apollyon screams for Fahrenheit to recover, but Dawn isn't looking to let go anytime soon. Pettis checks on Fahrenheit by raising his arm once. It drops.
JL: I think Apollyon's "machine" just went into sleep mode.
JC: That's NOT funny!
She raises the arm again, but this time it remains in the air. Fahrenheit starts to breathe harder, and soon he's back on his feet. He grabs Dawn by her head and snapmares her off of him. Fahrenheit looks down at the champ and stares through her mask. Fahrenheit grabs Dawn by the face, hoists her up, and then tosses her into the ropes. Without even giving her a chance to recover Fahrenheit runs at Dawn and boots her in the face sending her over the top and to the floor. The crowd boos as Fahrenheit's breathing starts to settle back down to normal.
RW: And now Fahrenheit is back in the dominating position as Dawn struggles to survive with her title.
Fahrenheit goes to the ropes and steps over them. As he heads outside Dawn slowly gets back to her feet. She turns around only for Fahrenheit to hit her with a solid right haymaker to the face. Dawn stumbles back. Fahrenheit grabs the champ by the back of her head and drags her over to the steps. Pettis doesn't bother to count them out, but she does yell at Fahrenheit to get Dawn back in the ring. Fahrenheit looks up at Pettis. The momentary distraction is enough for Dawn to land an elbow to Fahrenheit's ribs and follow it up by smashing his head into the steel steps over and over again. Artemisk sets Fahrenheit's head against the top step and climbs to the top. She proceeds to stomp her foot into his head before heading back into the ring. The Action Champ holds the side of his head and looks up at Dawn. It doesn't take long for Fahrenheit to recover, grab the ropes, and step back over them. Dawn meets him at the ropes though and she starts wailing on him with rights and lefts. Most of the blows seem ineffective, but they do manage to keep him stunned momentarily. It's long enough for Artemisk to whip Fahrenheit into the ropes. On the rebound Dawn runs and connects with a flying forearm, but Fahrenheit remains standing. Dawn gets to her feet quickly and, with help from Fahrenheit's falling momentum, is able to grab him and drop him with a back suplex.
RW: And Dawn continues to surprise everyone!
JL: I didn't think she had it in her after everything Fahrenheit did.
JC: ....
RW: Something wrong, John?
JC: Humph.
Dawn and Fahrenheit remain on the ground for a few seconds, and pretty soon a countdown timer shows up on screen. The fans start to count down along with the timer.
10! 9! 8! 7! 6! 5! 4! 3! 2! 1!
BZZZT!
"Survivalism" by Nine Inch Nails blasts from the speakers as the lights flash a devilishly good looking purple. Dirk sprints down to the ring without giving any time to blow kisses at the crowd. He removes his coat with a flourish and slides under the ropes.
RW: And here comes Dirk!
JL: Dawn must be feeling happy about this. Now she has an ally to fight off Fahrenheit.
JC: Does she? Or perhaps Dirk will finished off what Fahrenheit started.
JL: Don't be ridiculous. Dirk would never do that to his best friend and mentor.
JC: This is for the World Title, Johnny. Friendship isn't a factor.
RW: I hate to say it, but John as a point. Who can Dawn trust in this match?
Dirk goes over to Dawn and helps her up. Artemisk, now realizing that Dirk is with her, sighs with relief and points out the recovering Fahrenheit. Dirk nods and the two make their way over to the monster. They lift him up, but Fahrenheit suddenly springs to life and grabs both Dawn and Dirk by the neck with each hand. He goes for a double chokeslam, but Dawn and Dirk are on the same page as they kick him in the stomach and are able to connect with a double suplex. Dirk and Dawn gets back up and high five each other before getting Fahrenheit back up. They proceed to chop Fahrenheit in the chest over and over and over again, the crowd yelling "wooo!" with every chop. They then whip Fahrenheit into the ropes, and on the return they knock him down with a double clothesline.
JC: This isn't fair! It's supposed to be every man for himself, not a handicap match!
JL: John, like I said earlier, this was The Axis' M.O. from the beginning. Everyone knew it was going to happen like this.
JC: That still doesn't make it right.
Dawn looks over at Apollyon and taunts him. Suddenly, Dirk grabs Dawn from behind and rolls her up into a pin.
Pettis: 1...2...
Dawn kicks out. Artemisk stands up and looks at Dirk in shock. Roman holds his hands up in defense and then shrugs his shoulders as if to say "I had to give it a shot".
RW: Well THAT was interesting.
JC: HA! So much for teamwork!
JL: I guess Dirk wanted to give it a shot.
JC: He finally does something smart for once.
Dawn is about to argue with Dirk when Fahrenheit soon makes his way back up. He charges at the two of them, but they both side step and Fahrenheit goes crashing into a turnbuckle. He stumbles back allowing Dawn and Dirk to grab Fahrenheit and hit a double atomic drop. Fahrenheit falls into the ropes where Dawn and Dirk proceed to clothesline him out of the ring at the same time. Dirk celebrates by blowing a kiss at his fallen foe, but suddenly Dawn grabs Dirk from behind and rolls him up into a pin.
Pettis: 1...2...
Dirk kicks out. Roman gets to his feet and looks equally shocked at Dawn. The two stare eye to eye.
RW: What's good for the goose...
JL: Is NOT good for The Axis!
JC: I hope they beat the crap out of each other!
Dirk mutters something to Dawn, and Dawn nods. Fahrenheit is being helped up by Apollyon on the outside. Once the big man is back on his feet, both Dirk and Dawn run the ropes at the same time, leap over the top and land suicide dives on both Fahrenheit and Apollyon!
RW: WOAH!
JL: What elevation!
Dirk, Dawn, Fahrenheit and Apollyon are all out on the floor as the fans start chanting.
"THAT WAS AWESOME! THAT WAS AWESOME! THAT WAS AWESOME!"
Pettis simply watches from inside the ring as all four individuals start getting back up. Dirk is up first, and Fahrenheit joins him. Dirk gets back under the ring while Fahrenheit climbs up and over the ropes. Dirk quickly nails Fahrenheit in the gut and sets him up for a suplex, but Fahrenheit drives an elbow into Dirk's temple causing him to release the hold. Roman turns back around and gets a boot to the face. Fahrenheit then lifts Dirk up, grabs him by the neck with both hands and drops him with a double chokeslam. Fahrenheit lifts Roman up once more and this time drops him with a double underhook spiral DDT. He rolls Dirk over and makes the cover.
Pettis: 1...2...3!
Fahrenheit stands up and raises an arm up while the fans boo him tremendously.
Robyn: Ladies and gentlemen, your current champion...FAHRENHEIT!
RW: And Fahrenheit scores a pinfall making him the official World Champion at the moment.
JL: But remember, the match isn't over yet. Now Fahrenheit is the target, and he has to survive for the remainder of the time limit.
JC: I knew he could do it! I knew he couldn't be stopped! TEAM FAHRENHEIT RULES!
RW: Good lord...
Apollyon is up just in time to hear the good news. He climbs up on the ring apron and claps for Fahrenheit, but Pettis tells Apollyon to get off the ropes. Fahrenheit goes over to Pettis and gets in her face for talking back to Apollyon. Pettis shakes her head and warns Fahrenheit about touching her, even going so far as to poke him in the chest. Apollyon suddenly grabs Pettis by the neck and squeezes tightly.
RW: HEY! He can't do that!
JC: She wanted to come back, well here's her welcoming present!
Pettis puts her referee duties aside for the moment and kicks Fahrenheit in the groin. Fahrenheit lets go and turns to face Apollyon, only instead he gets Dawn Lenore Artemisk leaping from the top turnbuckle and hitting him with a diving hurricarana into a hooked pin. Pettis makes the count.
Pettis: 1...2...3!
Dawn gets up and the fans celebrate as Dawn recovers her gold.
Robyn: Now your current champion as a result of a pinfall...DAWN LENORE ARTEMISK!
JC: NO! NO NO NO! THAT'S NOT FAIR!
JL: I don't know what you're talking about, John. You don't put your hands on a referee, especially when that referee is Sara Pettis! Fahrenheit paid the price.
RW: Just as quickly as it came, Fahrenheit's title reign comes to an end, and Dawn is the champion once again.
JC: For now, Randy...for now.
Dawn, now back up, goes over to Dirk and helps him in the same way he helped her earlier. As the two start talking about what to do next, the countdown timer starts up once more.
RW: And here comes another participants.
JL: It's either Ataxia or Miranda.
RW: This will either help or hinder Dawn and Dirk. Which will it be?
10! 9! 8! 7! 6! 5! 4! 3! 2! 1!
BZZZT!
"Remember The Name" by Fort Minor plays as Miranda walks lazily from the curtain down the rampway, not bothering to regard anyone in the audience or much of anything else.
RW: And it's Miranda Reizeger!
JL: Ouch. Guess they'll have to wait five more minutes for Ataxia.
JC: If they can even SURVIVE five more minutes.
Miranda stands at the bottom of the ramp while Dawn and Dirk turn to face her. Dirk looks ready to rip her apart, but Miranda decides to walk around the ring instead of running into a handicap. Fahrenheit is back up by this point, and he doesn't hesitate to go right for Dawn with a kick to the midsection followed by a knee to the face. Dirk goes to help out Fahrenheit, but Miranda slides into the ring and intercepts Dirk with a tackle followed by a volley of punches to the face. Dirk rolls himself on top of Miranda and now he's the one throwing punches at her. While Dirk and Miranda go back and forth, Dawn and Fahrenheit wind up fighting in one corner of the ring. Fahrenheit goes to grab Dawn, but the champ is able to slip a thumb into Fahrenheit's eye. Blinded, the Action Champion shields his face with his hand giving Dawn the opportunity to climb to the top of the turnbuckle. Artemisk leaps in the air looking for a cross body, but Fahrenheit is able to catch Dawn with relative ease and drop her with a Fall Away slam. He makes a pin attempt.
Pettis: 1...2...
Dawn kicks out. Miranda pushes Dirk off of her and the two make it back on their feet. Miranda goes for a kick to the head, but Dirk ducks it, grabs Miranda from behind and connects with a german suplex pin. Pettis turns and makes the count.
Pettis: 1...2...
Miranda kicks out. Fahrenheit lifts up Dawn, whips her into the ropes, and elevates her with a back body drop. Dirk lifts up Miranda, but The Blue Vixen alters his plans by raking him in the eyes and knocking him down with a spinning heel kick. Miranda steps back to admire her work, but she takes one step too many and bumps into Fahrenheit. The monster turns around, glares at Miranda, and grabs her by the neck this time.
RW: Is it just me, or does Fahrenheit not enjoy the company of women?
JC: He's a complicated person, Randy!
JL: I thought he was a machine.
JC: HE'S BOTH!
JL: Ooook...
Miranda saves herself by using her free hand to deliver a fierce uppercut to Fahrenheit followed by another, and another, and a fourth one that knocks him into the ropes. Miranda goes for a high kick, but Fahrenheit blocks the kick and jabs her in the throat. Reizeger clutches her throat and turns around only to be caught by a revived Dawn with the Kempasoma! Miranda steps back into the awaiting arms of Fahrenheit who drops her with a full nelson slam. Fahrenheit and Dawn look at once another.
RW: I did not expect those two to team together.
JL: I don't think they meant to, it just happened to work out that way.
JC: Fahrenheit did most of the work anyway.
Roman is now back up, and he and Dawn look back at Fahrenheit. Like a bull charging towards a matador, Fahrenheit steamrolls himself towards Dawn and Dirk. He shoulder tackles Dawn to the ground, then grabs Dirk by the neck and tosses him across the ring. Fahrenheit goes over to Dawn and lifts her up. He drapes her over his shoulder and goes for a Samoan drop, but Dawn manages to drop down behind Fahrenheit, grab his neck and land an inverted DDT. Once back on her feet, Dawn makes her way to the top turnbuckle. She perches and patiently awaits her opponent. Fahrenheit gets up, Dawn leaps and she finally lands the cross body from before. Artemisk gets up and gestures for Fahrenheit to do the same. When he does, Dawn lifts her leg and connects with Suteki Da Ne.
JL: Yikes! Right in the crown jewels.
RW: Sympathy pains all around.
JC: She should be disqualified and Fahrenheit should be champion again!
JL: He still doesn't get this match, does he?
RW: Not even a little bit.
Fahrenheit falls to his knees and rolls out of the ring to collect himself. Dawn doesn't wait on that as she runs and hits Fahrenheit with a baseball slide. Dawn goes out of the ring while Dirk and Miranda get back to their feet. Reizeger spots Roman and walks over to him. She catches him off guard with a mule kick and then combines that with a neckbreaker. She goes for the pin.
Pettis: 1...2...
Dirk kicks out. Miranda grabs Dirk and carries him over to a turnbuckle. Reizeger climbs up, wrap an arm around his neck and goes for a tornado DDT, but Roman manages to push Miranda off of him. Reizeger lands on her feet and goes for a clothesline, but Dirk ducks it, grabs Miranda's shoulders and drops her into a sliding pin. Roman puts his feet on the ropes for leverage as Pettis counts.
Pettis: 1...2...3!
Roman moves quickly and slides out of the ring before Miranda can even comprehend what just happened. When she hears the announcement, she bangs on the mat in frustration.
Robyn: Now your current champion as a result of a pinfall...DIRK ROMAN!
RW: Dirk wins the gold!
JC: Uh, no. No he does not. He's only keeping it warm for Fahrenheit, the TRUE champion.
JL: We've got about a minute left until Ataxia shows up, so it's a good thing that title's in Axis territory.
Dawn interrupts her fight with Fahrenheit to look over at Dirk and give him a thumbs up over pinning Miranda. Roman returns the thumbs up, but soon Fahrenheit and Miranda are back on the attack of their respective opponents. Dawn drags Fahrenheit over to the commentary table after whipping him into the barricade while Dirk does the same to Miranda after having her head collide with a turnbuckle post. Dawn and Dirk meet each other at the middle of the table. Looking at one another, they smirk and hand off their opponents to one another. Dirk now has Fahrenheit while Dawn has Miranda.
RW: Did...did they just exchange opponents?
JL: 'Tis the giving season, Randy.
JC: I don't give a damn. Those two need to be stopped!
And stopped they are. Right away things go haywire as Fahrenheit uses his strength to overpower Dirk and drive his back into the commentary table.
JL: WOAH!
JC: Tony Danza in the house.
RW: I think we should step away guys.
Meanwhile, Miranda sucker punches Dawn right in the jaw which takes her down with relative ease. Reizeger grabs Dawn and shoves her back into the ring. Fahrenheit, meanwhile, grabs Dirk by the neck and signals for a chokeslam. Seconds later, Fahrenheit lifts Dirk up high and drops him with a chokeslam that goes through the commentary table!
JL: HOLY SH*T!
JC: THIS IS AWFUL!
RW: You hit the nail on the head, John. Dirk's not getting back up after that one.
JC: What? No, not him. My water bottle spilled! OH THE HUMANITY!
JL: Can I hit him?
RW: Not while the cameras are looking.
The fans start chanting Legend's quote.
HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT!
As Dirk lies motionless, Fahrenheit stops to catch his breath. Miranda rolls Dawn into the ring and tries a quick pin.
Pettis: 1...2...
Dawn kicks out. Suddenly the timer starts up.
RW: This is it. Last member of the match coming up.
10! 9! 8! 7! 6! 5! 4! 3! 2! 1!
BZZZT!
“Die! Die! Die, my darling. Don’t utter a single word...”
As the Metallica song comes over the PA the fans wait to see Ataxia come out from the entrance. The song continues to play, but there's no sign of Ataxia.
RW: Is he coming out?
JL: I don't see him.
JC: I bet he chickened out.
RW: That doesn't sound right.
JL: Well he did say that he didn't want the title. Maybe he decided to not participate.
RW: That still doesn't sound right. I mean-
Suddenly, the fans go wild as a familiar figure appears from within the crowd holding a steel chair. Sure enough, the camera catch Ataxia hopping over the barricade. He runs right up to Fahrenheit and cracks him in the back of the head with the chair. Fahrenheit falls to the ground and Ataxia continues to pummel him with the chair until it's visibly bent. Ataxia stands over Fahrenheit and raises the chair over his head.
JL: Now THAT'S how you make an arrival.
JC: NO! Fahrenheit! Somebody help him!
Apollyon tries to go to Fahrenheit, but Ataxia gives him a glare and it's enough to keep him away. Miranda, not noticing Ataxia, continues to work on Dawn with kidney punches and uppercuts against the turnbuckle. Miranda then climbs on top of Dawn and starts a ten count of punches. Ataxia slides into the ring and gives Miranda a small dosage of revenge by hitting her in the back with the chair. Miranda falls off of Dawn and leans against the ropes, her back on fire with pain.
RW: I guess you could say that's payback for what Miranda did two weeks ago.
JC: Doesn't he know that two wrongs don't make a right?
JL: In Ataxia's mind, there's not such thing as right.
Sara Pettis decides to get involved once more by pulling Ataxia to her and telling him to get rid of the chair. Ataxia looks pretty angry with Pettis, and he raises the chair up over his head...only to hand it to her. Ataxia laughs at Pettis who takes the chair and tosses it out of the ring.
RW: Well now Ms. Pettis gets to see just how bizarre Ataxia really is.
Ataxia goes to Dawn and helps her out of the corner. He then whispers something to her before stepping back and falling to the mat. Dawn doesn't hesitate to jump on Ataxia. Pettis, not sure of what's going on, makes the count.
JL: Uhh...what?
Pettis: 1...2...3!
Dawn and Ataxia get up at the same time. Ataxia pats Dawn on the back and raises her arm in the air.
Robyn: Now your current champion as a result of a pinfall...DAWN LENORE ARTEMISK!
RW: Ataxia just gave Dawn her title back!
JL: Now I get it. Ataxia doesn't want the title, so he's giving it back to Dawn so it stay in the Axis.
JC: This is ridiculous! That can't happen, can it?!
RW: It just did, and with only five minutes left in the match and Ataxia by her side, it looks like Dawn's walking out with the title.
Ataxia says something else to Dawn, and the champ nods in agreement. Dawn walks over to one corner of the ring and sits down to have a rest while Ataxia goes after Miranda.
JL: And now it looks like Ataxia will be fighting for Dawn.
Ataxia grabs Miranda and whips her into the ropes. On the way back Ataxia connects with a running knee to the stomach. Miranda tries to get back up quickly, but she receives a shining wizard for her troubles. Ataxia stands over Miranda and smacks her in the face a couple times before running the ropes and landing a springboard moonsault. Ataxia cracks his neck and grins as Miranda gasps for breath. Ataxia looks over at the fans and taunts the hardcore Miranda fans close by, even going so far as to blow his snot at them. Ataxia walks over to Miranda and applies a dragon sleeper submission. Pettis asks Miranda if she gives up, but Ataxia waves off Sara and tells her not to check. It doesn't matter though, as Miranda doesn't look ready to tap. In fact, she looks ready to break out of the hold. Ataxia keeps it on for as long as he can, but Miranda is able to fight it off long enough to spin herself around and shove Ataxia into the nearest turnbuckle. Ataxia lets go and Miranda proceeds to shoulder tackle Ataxia over and over again. Dawn, noticing Ataxia in danger, runs over to help, but Miranda sees him in time and steps aside causing Dawn to be smashed into Ataxia. Miranda steps back, runs and clotheslines both Dawn and Ataxia. Artemisk collapses on the mat while Ataxia stumbles forward. Miranda wraps an arm around Ataxia's head, runs up the turnbuckle and hits a tornado DDT. Miranda covers Ataxia.
Pettis: 1...2...
Ataxia kicks out. Reizeger picks up Ataxia and knocks him back with elbow strikes to the face followed by a leg sweep to knock him back down. Miranda pulls Ataxia to the center of the ring, grabs his leg and applies a half crab submission. Ataxia squirms his way to the ropes, but Miranda fights to keep him as far away from the ropes as possible. He inches himself closer and closer, the pain getting excruciating. Eventually he does manage to grab the bottom rope and Pettis yells at Miranda to break the hold. Reizeger refuses, and Pettis gets a bit more forceful with making her let go by pulling her off of Ataxia. Miranda gets up and goes nose to nose with Ataxia.
JL: Pettis is not making many friends tonight.
JC: Well she's butting in on everyone!
RW: Butting in? She's the referee! That's her job.
JC: She's getting too involved, even for a referee. You saw what she did to Fahrenheit earlier, and now this!
Pettis and Miranda have a war of words while Ataxia uses the ropes to get to his feet. Miranda soon realizes this and goes after Ataxia with a clothesline, but Ataxia ducks and back body drops Miranda on the apron. Reizeger waits for Ataxia to turn around before grabbing his head and dropping his jaw on the top rope. Ataxia falls to the mat while Miranda climbs up the nearest turnbuckle. She waits for Ataxia to get to his feet. When he does Miranda leaps off and hits a missile dropkick. She goes for the pin.
Pettis: 1...2...
But a returning Dawn is able to grab Miranda's foot and pull her off of Ataxia. Miranda gets up, and now she and Dawn start brawling while Ataxia recovers.
JL: It's like every time an Axis member is down, another one is up to fight.
RW: That's the power of the numbers game, and we've seen it plenty of times throughout this match. With mere minutes to go, Miranda needs to come up with a way to keep all the Axis members down.
Dawn goes to kick Miranda, but Reizeger is able to catch it. The champ quickly changes it up to an enzuigiri kick that knocks Miranda to one knee. Right away Dawn gets behind Miranda and applies a double armed sleeper hold. Reizeger reaches for the ropes right away and Pettis yells at Dawn to let go. Unlike Miranda, Dawn listens to Pettis and releases the hold. Dawn goes for her next move when suddenly, Fahrenheit appears on the apron, grabs Dawn by the hair and tosses her over the top rope along with him.
RW: And Fahrenheit's back!
JC: YES! It's not over until it's over!
Fahrenheit and Dawn fight near the barricade while Ataxia gets to his feet. He notices Miranda getting up and goes over to her, but Reizeger sees him coming and sends him down with a Lou Thez press followed by a barrage of punches, each one harder than the last. Miranda stops after her arm gets tired, and Ataxia can be heard laughing much like he did the last time he was getting pummeled by Miranda.
JC: The guy's a sick freak, Randy.
JL: Nobody should be enjoying Miranda's punches.
RW: Miranda can't afford to stop now though. She needs to take advantage of the situation.
Miranda gets off of Ataxia and walks over to the ropes. She bends her knees and waits for Ataxia to get up. When he does, Miranda runs and goes for a bicycle kick to face, but Ataxia ducks it, grabs Miranda from behind and drops her with a German suplex. He gets her back up and drops another German. He gets up once more and gets in a third German. Following that, Ataxia lifts up Miranda and goes for the death valley driver, but Miranda is able to land an elbow to Ataxia's face, then drop down and lock him in a guillotine choke. Pettis checks on Ataxia to see if he gives up, but Ataxia isn't the kind of person to simply say he quits. But after a few seconds of being in the hold, the thought seems to be tempting as Ataxia raises a shaking arm in the air.
RW: Ataxia could tap right here!
JL: I'll believe it when I see it.
Ataxia looks ready to tap when from out of nowhere Dirk Roman appears and stomps on Miranda's head which causes her to release the hold.
JC: What the-Dirk Roman? I thought he was out of it.
RW: I was so focused on the match, I didn't even notice him enter the ring.
Roman grabs Miranda and drops her in the center of the ring with a scoop slam. The crowd looks hyped up as Dirk sets things up for a familiar elbow. Sure enough, Dirk runs the ropes from one end to the other before dropping an elbow on Miranda's sternum. Roman looks to the fans, sticks his hand in his tights and pulls out a handful of glitter.
RW: Dirk's going for it right here!
Roman waits for Miranda to get up and face him. When she does, Dirk throws the glitter in her direction, but Reizeger ducks it and the glitter winds up hitting Ataxia. It gets into the eye holes of his mask causing him to be blinded. Dirk covers his mouth in shock and goes to Ataxia to help. Miranda uses this to her advantage by grabbing Dirk and tossing him shoulder first into Ataxia. With Roman down, Miranda is free to hit Ataxia with a clothesline that knocks him over the top rope and to the floor.
RW: Talk about miscommunication!
JL: Worst time for that to occur. There's less than a minute left on the clock!
Sure enough, the timer appears to show fans that the match is near its end. Meanwhile, Fahrenheit slides Dawn back in the ring and steps over the ropes. Dirk, seeing that Dawn needs his help, makes his way over to Fahrenheit and knocks him back with a hard right. Fahrenheit grabs Dirk by the neck and pushes him over the ropes, but Dirk grabs Fahrenheit and pulls him out of the ring as well.
RW: Ataxia, Dirk, and Fahrenheit are all out of the ring!
JL: That just leaves Miranda and Dawn with seconds remaining!
Miranda and Dawn turn to one another, and the crowd is going crazy. Miranda, not able to waste any more time, lunges forward at Dawn, but the champ ducks Miranda's advances, springboards off the ropes and connects with a double knee facebreaker. Miranda is down and out, and Dawn looks ready to end it as the clock reaches twenty seconds. Artemisk makes her way to the top of a turnbuckle with her back to Miranda. Dawn leaps off and goes for her finishing moonsault, but Miranda is able to lift her knees and drive them into Dawn. Artemisk clutches her chest and rolls into a ball while Miranda gets to her feet.
RW: She can't make the time, can she?
JL: Dawn needs to get out of there.
Miranda forces Dawn up to her feet, runs the ropes and goes for that bicycle kick, but Dawn ducks it and grabs Miranda for the sleeper.

Miranda gets the three count right as Ataxia falls on top of her.
BZZZT!
RW: Did she do it?
JL: I don't know. It's too hard to tell.
Pettis analyzes the situation, and soon comes to an agreement. She helps Miranda up and raises her arm. "Remember The Name" starts playing as the fans go crazy!
RW: YES! She did it! Miranda Reizeger wins!
Robyn: Ladies and gentlemen, the winner of this match, and NEW SFT World Heavyweight Champion...MIRANDA REIZEGER!
Reizeger pulls away from Pettis and takes a moment to catch her breath.
RW: Well I'll be damned. Miranda overcame the odds and survived The Axis.
JL: It was close, very very close, but Miranda was just a fraction of a second ahead of Ataxia, but sometimes that's all that matters.
JC: More importantly, this means that The Axis no longer have The World Title! WOOHOO!
RW: I thought you'd be upset that Fahrenheit didn't win.
Pettis takes the World Title from the timekeeper and holds it out for Miranda to take. Reizeger looks at the belt, rolls her eyes and snatches it out of Pettis' hands. Ataxia pulls at his hair in frustration while Dawn is still laid out. Miranda looks at Ataxia, holds up the title belt in front of him, and walks out of the ring.
RW: And Miranda sends a message to not only Ataxia, but The Axis as well.
JL: She's back on top, and who can possibly knock her down?
Winner: Miranda Reizeger via pinfall
