Harrys: Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is your main event of the evening and it is set for one fall!

Harrys: Making her way down the runway, from Milan, Italy, weighing 156 pounds... Eve Taylor!
The arena goes dim, with a single spotlight shining at the top of the entrance ramp. Eve Taylor steps in it, with her head looking down. She slowly lifts her head, and slowly looks around the entire arena, before bursting out from the spotlight and amping up the crowd. Her left-hand glides behind and rubs her lower back, still aching from the battle with Celeste Crimson, and Eve then begins to walk down to the ring.
Copeland: Perhaps the greatest performance of her career occurred at Kingdom Come. Eve Taylor and Celeste Crimson absolutely performed to the best of their abilities on Sunday and it was one of the matches everyone was talking about afterwards.
Cohen: Eve really had to fight through a lot of pain. She doubted herself going into the match and now we have seen her climb to the top of that mountain. We’ve seen her overcome whatever doubt she had about herself. She not only beat Celeste but she made the legend tap out in the middle of the ring. It was incredible and something I never thought we’d ever see.
Copeland: A truly amazing moment with Celeste almost breaking the submission but Eve would not give it up. Now her focus turns to the match tonight and her chance to take on who many believe to be the greatest champion in the business.
Eve enters the ring and begins to climb up onto the top rope for her usual threatrics but suddenly the lights go out and see is unable to be seen by the camera. The shot changes to the ramp where a spotlight has fallen and standing in the middle is her opponent; Titus Avison!

Harrys: And her opponent, from Keystone City, Kansas, weighing 225 pounds, he is YOUR Eurasian Champion… Titus Avison!
With an air of arrogance to him and with the crowd booing loudly, Titus smirks under the spotlight. The entire arena is pitch black except for the light on him. It’s his night and his time for celebration and he has cut Eve Taylor’s entrance short and put all the attention on himself. Titus unclips the Eurasian Championship from his waist and holds it proudly into the air, more boos from the crowd, before making his way down the ring.
Cohen: A true champion! This man has defied all the odds and overcome more than any other champion in the history of WZCW. He has beaten ‘em all, Seabass! You cannot name a superstar who has entered the ring with Titus Avison and walked away the victor. He has defended that title repeatedly against the very best in the world but none of them can touch Titus.
Copeland: It was an impressive showing from Titus Avison at Kingdom Come where he successfully defended the Eurasian Championship yet again. He is the longest reigning champion across all titles in WZCW history and I’ve been hearing rumours he is setting his sights on breaking the title defence record. He loves making history and tonight is another chance for that as two big superstars collide.
Cohen: I keep telling you, Seabass. Titus Avison has taken the Eurasian Championship to the next level. It’s the most important title in the company. One guy has held it over the past year while every other title was passed around like a bowl of chips! Titus has added a whole new respect to the title and I’m proud to call him my champion.
Copeland: The hashtag not my champion was trending over the weekend during Kingdom Come.
Cohen: Fake news, Seabass. Nothing but fake news.
Titus climbs into the ring and ascends the turnbuckle with his classic smirk still shining brightly. His title sparkles under the lights and Eve Taylor has her eyes locked on him. After a moment of parading around the ring Titus hands his title belt over to a ring crew member and turns to face his opponent. The referee steps out of the way and calls for the bell.
*DING DING*
It starts off with Titus Avison and Eve testing strength and the champion getting the advantage. He switches to a headlock and laughs at how easily he is control Eve. As if on cue, Eve explodes out and delivers a combination of knife edge chops to the chest of Titus, sending the champion stumbling into the corner. She charges forward and hits a jumping knee strike to the head, a strong shot which blurs Titus’ vision for a moment. Eve slips onto the apron of the ring and cracks Titus with a forearm to the back of the head. This knocks him down and the crowd are quick to their feet as Eve goes up to the top rope and points down at the prone Eurasian Championship. With the support of the crowd Eve dives off the top rope looking for the Stiletto Stomp but Titus rolls out of the way! The Eurasian Champion rolled towards the corner, causing Eve to miss but she tucks and rolls stopping any major damage to herself. Quickly, Eve advances looking to make up for the miss but Titus pokes her in the eye. The official is not happy but Titus moves in and connects with the reserve DDT. He hooks the leg. 1… Kick Out! Titus shakes his head a little, his jaw sore from the knee strike, and begins pulling Eve by the hair. He applies a sleeper hold for a moment but when she struggles he shifts into a swinging breaker. Again, Titus Avison goes for a cover. 1… 2… Kick Out!
Cohen: Eve went for her big moves too earlier, Seabass. Now Titus has control and he’s going to teach her a lesson.
Copeland: Two strong competitors and two people you can never count out of a match. I’d keep an eye on Eve and Titus would be wise to put this match away early if he has that chance.
First back to their feet is Titus and he drives his knee into the ribs of Eve. From their he pulls her by the arm over to the ropes, lifting her up and hanging Eve over the middle rope. The crowd watches on as Titus moves to the turnbuckle, climbs onto the top rope and dives, delivering a knee drop onto the back of Eve’s suspend neck. He hooks the leg for a cover. 1… 2… Kick Out! Frustration comes over Titus now as he approaches the official. He begins to argue that it should have been a three and takes so long that Eve rolls him up! 1… 2… Kick Out. Springing to his feet off the surprise roll up, Titus turns and is hit with a vicious headbutt from Eve. It nearly knocks out a tooth of the Oscar Winner and that’s not all as Eve sends him into the ropes and on the rebound, hits a big boot! He tries to sit up but Eve is already sprinting against the ropes and nails a sliding forearm smash to put Titus down. He goes for the cover now. 1… 2… Kick Out! The crowd groan as Eve throws up her hands in disbelief that Titus kicked out. With momentum now on her side, Eve steps around Titus and begins stomping all over his body. She flicks her fair, points to the crowd and taunts Titus all the while stomping his exposed body delivering Facial Treatment. Once Titus has wormed his way over to the ropes he begins to pull him up. Eve allows this and waits for her chance, she moves in but an elbow stuns her and Titus goes for the European Uppercut only for Eve to counter with an Arm-Trap Neckbreaker. Another cover from Eve. 1… 2… Kick Out!
Copeland: This match has turned in favour of Eve who is looking to put Titus away with just one more big move.
Cohen: Titus is just waiting to explode. He’ll stay in this match until the moment, the perfect chance, presents itself and then he’ll be crowned the winner.
Eve is the first to her feet and she kicks Titus in the stomach before striking with a chop. With her opponent stunned, Eve runs and pulls off an incredible looking hurricanrana. The crowd cheers again and Eve signals for the end as she slaps her leg. As Titus stumbles to his feet Eve goes for the High Heel Kick – Titus ducks and grabs the ankle for the
ANKLE LOCK! Screams of pain shoot through the arena as Eve struggles to get to the ropes. Her injured ankles from model a huge target and Titus is taking advantage of her weakness. He has a sick smile on his face as he twists the ankle and is laughing at Eve’s attempts to get out of the hold. Suddenly, Eve rolls forward and Titus goes crashing into the corner. Eve rubs her ankle, fights to her feet with a slight limp, and goes for the double axe handle smash in the corner. Titus spins out of the way and slams her head first into the, nobody seems to know how, exposed turnbuckle! Even the referee doesn’t see it and Titus flips the cover back over the metal before any investigation can take place. He dives into the cover on Eve. 1… 2… Kick Out! Somehow, she kicked out again and Titus is furious. His cheating didn’t work. He begins punching Eve in the face and shouting at her to stay down. His mind working overtime now for a way to put this match away and he turns to the top rope. Titus gets up and climbs the corner, the crowd wondering what is coming next and he stays perched until Eve begins to stand.
Copeland: High risk territory for Titus as he feels this is what it is going to take to beat Eve Taylor. Back and forth this match goes with neither competitor giving an inch.
Cohen: He can do it all, Seabass. Not just a brawler, submission expert, high flying superstar or a martial arts guy. Titus Avison is the perfect professional wrestler.
Flying clothesline off the top rope connects by Titus and he scrambles into the pin. 1... 2… Kick Out! Eve gets the shoulder off the mat but Titus cannot believe it and begins arguing with the official. Replays are shown and the move hits perfectly and yet somehow Eve Taylor got her shoulder off the mat just in time to keep this match going. She is motionless on the canvas as Titus is still demanding it was a three count. When the referee refuses to concede that point Titus gives him a little shove, not enough for a disqualification, but it gets a warning from the official not to do that again. Titus simply laughs and yells “I don’t need this. See ya later, losers!” and begins exiting the ring. He approaches the ring crew worker who is holding his title, rips it from his hands before shoving the young man off his chair. The crowd boo loudly as Titus shrugs it off and walks past the ring and up the ramp. The official has started the count, it means nothing to Titus however as he clips the Eurasian Championship around his waist. He is nearly at the top of the ramp when music blasts over the arena and a loud cheer echoes throughout, stopping him dead in his tracks.

Cohen: Kagura! What in the world is she doing out her? She has no business to be at ringside during this contest. Get that woman out of her, right now.
Copeland: Look at the look in the eyes of Titus Avison. He has been cut off by Kagura and now he has nowhere to run. She is forcing him back into the ring!
Indeed, Kagura begins walking down the ramp and Titus slowly back peddles. He takes a backwards step each time and cannot believe how unlucky he is. The title belt still clipped around his waist and Kagura approaching quickly. A fire in her eyes, a look of determination and soon enough Titus reaches something which stops his movement.
Eve Taylor is standing on the outside of the ring and nails him with a punch to the jaw. The crowd erupt with cheers as she throws him back into the ring where he stumbles around. Titus is spinning and quickly tries to run directly at Eve but she ducks, punches him again before hitting a thunderous Fashion Statement. She hooks the leg and the referee slides into position, Kagura watches on from the outside, as the count begins. 1… 2… 3! Eve Taylor has pinned Titus Avison live on Meltdown.
Harrys: Here is your winner, Eve Taylor!
Cohen: She cheated, damn it! Kagura had no reason to be out here tonight. She got involved in a match that Titus clearly had won. Replay this, I want to see an investigation into the actions of Kagura tonight.
Copeland: You may want to think again partner because Titus Avison has fallen. He has been defeated by Eve Taylor and it seems his future contains another female competitor; Kagura Joheki.
Cohen: This was supposed to be his night of celebration. Now it has turned into a nightmare!
Eve Taylor has her hand raised by the referee and she waves to the fans. A huge smile over her face for what has been an amazing couple of weeks. Two major victories back to back and a win that puts her firmly in the mix of the elite in WZCW. As Eve is celebrating she notices Kagura on the outside and gives her a nod of thanks before exiting the ring. All the eyes in the arena are upon Kagura who slowly climbs the ring steps and enters the ring. The arena is chanting her name as she approaches the body of Titus Avison, he lay knocked out cold, and the Eurasian Championship still clipped around his stomach.
A moment passes by and then Kagura leans down and rolls Titus over onto his stomach. She runs her hand along the metal buttons of the title belt and clips them one by one until she lifts the belt up into her own hands. Her focus on the title now, it’s almost as if it is the only thing in the world that matters at that moment and even the fallen champion is a distant thought. Kagura looks up, directly into the camera, and holds the Eurasian Championship high in the air to a wave of love from the audience.
Copeland: Ladies and gentlemen at Kingdom Come, Kagura won a championship opportunity against either the Eurasian or Elite Openweight Champion. It seems that tonight we have got her decision. Kagura has made it clear that her sights are set on Titus Avison. She will challenge him for the title belt and this could very well spell the end for the longest reigning champion in the company.
Cohen: She attempted to weaken him tonight but be sure about one thing, Titus will be back and he will overcome this cheater. Titus will not fall to Kagura and she will be the next on his long list of defeated competitors.
Copeland: As we say goodbye tonight I’d like to just say one final thing. Titus Avison is the greatest champion of all time, he has been incredible over the past year, breaking records and setting the benchmark. However, he has beaten many men on his journey as Eurasian Champion but Titus has never beaten a woman with the title on the line. We’ve been asking which man would defeat him and for over a year they have all failed, maybe it was because a man was never supposed to beat him? Goodnight everybody.
No man has been able to defeat Titus Avison but now his next challenger will be a woman. Will this mean the end of his historic reign? As Kagura stands in the ring holding up the belt, the logo of WZCW flashes on screen and that question burns in the mind of everyone as Meltdown comes to an end.
