*One hundred percent reason to remember the name!*
-The show begins with Celestia in the ring, waiting for the masses of screaming fans to calm themselves while the pyrotechnics launch off on stage-
Dr. Whooves: Welcome one and all to Friday Night Sublime, where the aftershocks from the Royal Rumble are still being felt.
Discord: The damage is limited here, but it's impossible to ignore the effects of the last Pay-Per-View's main event.
Dr. Whooves: The future of our sister show Lunacy was riding on that match, and despite the best efforts of Team Rich, the EWF's CEO was eventually forced to cede all control of monday nights to Luna on the last edition of Lunacy.
-A replay shows of Filthy Rich officially turning over control, and the humiliation that followed afterwards-
Discord: Sublime and Lunacy are now more like separate entities than ever. While Lunacy is still technically part of the EWF, it is only so in name only. Luna is totally immune to any executive decisions made by corporate, Lunacy belongs to her and not the EWF.
Dr. Whooves: It's certainly turbulent times for this company, I wonder how General Manager Celestia plans to steer us through it. Let's see what she has to say.
Celestia: Well, it's certainly been a wild ride these past few weeks hasn't it?
-Crowd Cheers-
Celestia: With that said, I've decided it's time for a big announcement: Seeing what happened on Lunacy, I've decided that I will follow suit and take over Sublime.
-Confused mixed reaction from the audience-
Celestia:...Just kidding, that would be too much work anyways.
-Chants of "Troll-estia!" are heard throughout the audience-
Celestia: You're damn right. In seriousness though, it's pretty hard to grasp the magnitude of what's happened. However, despite these changes I wanted to make it clear that Sublime will continue operating the same as it always has. Let Luna drive her show into the ground with this crazy dictatorship, it won't affect us. My sister has always craved attention, and I've learned the best way to deal with that is to not feed her ego. That said, it's time to focus our attention on Sublime matters. Namely, the Fight for your Right and Brawl for it All ladder matches at High Stakes!
-Loud cheering from the crowd-
Celestia: There are a lot of spots to fill. I've decided that all those spots will be filled using two simple matches. Tonight's Sublime will feature not one, but two 16 person tag-matches. One for the women, one for the men. The winning team will become the competitors in their respective ladder match.
-Even more cheers-
Dr. Whooves: What a blockbuster! Two 16 person tag matches, unbelievable.
Discord: It's going to be one chaotic night, I certainly can't wait!
Celestia: Until then, enjoy the show.
-Celestia exits the ring as it becomes time for the first match of the evening-
*Remix of Beethoven's 8th plays*
Baritone: The following match is scheduled for one fall, introducing first, accompanied by King Blueblood, Hoity Toity, and Damien Sandow, weighing 135 pounds and standing five foot, eight inches tall, representing Divine Intervention, Octavia!
-The entire group of Divine Intervention arrives on stage, most of it's members have a look of angry determination, with the exception of King Blueblood who is as confident as ever-
Discord: The past month was a bittersweet victory for Divine Intervention. While Blueblood became the first ever King of the Ring, Damien Sandow failed in his challenge of Underbaker's World Brawler's Championship. Worse yet, Octavia lost her International title to her long time rival Vinyl Scratch.
Dr. Whooves: Octavia definitely looks ready to brawl tonight, best not underestimate her.
*Trippy 60s music plays*
Baritone: And introducing her opponent, from Loneyville, weighing 148 pounds and standing five foot, nine inches tall, Tree Hugger!
Dr. Whooves: Sublime has a CCW visitor here tonight. The point of this match will be to gage Tree Hugger's current ability and see if she's ready to enter the big leagues.
Discord: I certainly don't envy her, her first night in the big spotlight and she has to go up against Octavia. She better have some good tricks up her sleeve.
Match 1: Octavia/w Divine Intervention vs. Tree Hugger
*4 minutes later*
-Octavia backs Tree Hugger into the corner with a rapid series of kicks and punches, she sets her up on the turnbuckle-
Dr. Whooves: Octavia's been relentless in her offence this entire match, and she could be looking to finish it up with a devastating suplex.
-Tree Hugger manages to break free and kicks Octavia down to the mat. She then hits a hard dive and makes a pin-
Discord: Amazing dive by Tree Hugger, will we have an upset?!
*1..-Kick-out!*
Dr. Whooves: Only a one-count, but that had to of been a wake up call for Octavia.
-Octavia gets up and engages Tree Hugger with a series of grapples, after almost a minute of going back and forth Octavia finally manages to hit a Sonnet-
Discord: Sonnet! This could be it!
*1...2...3!*
Baritone: Here is your winner, Octavia!
Dr. Whooves: Tree Hugger but up her best attempt, but in the end she just wasn't a match for Octavia.
Discord: This will definitely be good boost for Octavia though, as she'll undoubtedly be using her rematch clause to challenge Vinyl Scratch at High Stakes.
*Commercial*
-Daring Do is walking backstage, she enters the locker room only to find Cloudkicker and Trenderhoof, both half undressed, making out against the lockers-
Daring: Uhh...excuse me?
-Trenderhoof jumps in surprise, and looks to break away but Cloudkicker quickly grabs him-
Cloudkicker: Don't worry about it, nothing wrong with having an audience anyways.
-The two go back to making out before Daring pushes them away from the locker and seperates them-
Daring: Seriously? You're going to fuck right here in the locker room that half the roster uses? And you're going to do it on MY locker?
Cloudkicker: *Shrug* Why not? You can even join in if it's that big a deal…
Daring: *Groans* Do you have ANY self-respect, at all?
Cloudkicker: Nah, life's more fun without it. Besides, it beats being a prude like you.
Daring: I am not a prude!
Cloudkicker: Oh yeah? Prove it. You and me, bra and panties match, next week.
Daring: W-What? No way!
Cloudkicker: What's the matter? Afraid of showing this body off?
-Cloudkicker puts her hands on Daring's hips, and slowly starts moving them towards the back before Daring pushes her away-
Daring: Get off of me! You litt-..ugh, fine. I'll take your challenge.
Cloudkicker: Heh. I win either way. Come on Trendy, we'll find a different spot.
-Cloudkicker saunters out of the room, while Trenderhoof stops for a brief moment-
Trenderhoof: You don't know what you've gotten into Daring. That woman is a Succubus. A sexy, scary, Succubus.
-Trenderhoof follows Cloudkicker and leaves Daring Do with a "What have I gotten myself into?" look-
Dr. Whooves: It's time for our next match of the night. Where Starlight Glimmer will take on the International Champion, Vinyl Scratch, in a non title match up.
*Even in the darkest days this fire burns, alwaaaaaaaaaays*
Baritone: The following match is scheduled for one fall, introducing first,accompanied by Nurse Redheart and Cheerilee, from Equalitopia, weighing 141 pounds and standing five foot, eight inches tall, Starlight Glimmer !
-Starlight Glimmer emerges on stage with Cheerilee following behind her on one side, and Nurse Redheart on the other. Both of Starlight follower's are wearing plain grey attire with white equal signs on the middle of their shirts. They make the same sign with their arms while Starlight drops to her knees and outstretched her arms,as she does this an impressive display of pyro blasts off in the background-
Discord: And here comes Sublime's new cult leader, Starlight Glimmer, escorted by her first converts.
Dr. Whooves: Hopefully they'll be her only converts. Starlight by herself is dangerous enough, she'd be unstoppable with a mob backing her.
-Starlight and her followers walk down the ramp, with Starlight pointing out random audience members and yelling the same phrases at them-
Starlight: You can be liberated! And you can be liberated! You all can be liberated!
Discord: Do you want to be liberated, Whooves?
Whooves: No, thank you. I have enough liberty for the time being.
*WUB WUB WUUUUUB*
Baritone: And her opponent, from Loneyville, weighing 122 pounds and standing five foot, seven inches tall, she is the International Champion, Vinyl Scratch!
-Vinyl Scratch makes her way down to the ring, slapping hands with audience members and getting a fair amount of cheers while Starlight looks onward and whispers something to Cheerilee and Nurse Redheart-
Dr. Whooves: Vinyl certainly has the crowd's approval in this match, but she better be careful. It seems like Starlight and her cult are plotting something fiendish.
Discord: Starlight is ALWAYS plotting something.
Match 2: Starlight Glimmer/w Cheerilee and Nurse Redheart vs. Vinyl Scratch
*5 minutes later*
-Starlight Glimmer sets up for an Equalizer, but Vinyl Scratch counters and attempts a series of kicks. However most of these are blocked by Starlight who grabs one of Vinyl's legs and flips her over completely-
Starlight: Pfft. How did someone as pathetic as you ever become a champion? Disgraceful.
Dr. Whooves: Starlight definitely seems in control of the match at the moment, and once again we see an example of her taunting an opponent in the midst of a match.
Discord: Starlight is very skilled in the art of mind games. One shouldn't take her talking as a weakness however. Her actions are just as deadly as her words.
-Vinyl Scratch gets back up and charges at Starlight again, however Starlight grabs her and delivers a hard knee to the abdomen, then after a few punches she shoves Vinyl Scratch into a nearby turnbuckle-
Starlight: Forget about Octavia, Vinyl. I am your worst nightmare!
-Starlight goes for a clothesline, but Vinyl manages to duck out just in time and counters with a Cross-Fade. She follows up with a pin but only gets a one count-
Dr. Whooves: Starlight's taunting backfired on her there though. Those extra few seconds gave Vinyl enough time to prepare a counter. Now Starlight will need to build up her momentum all over again.
*4 minutes later*
-Vinyl Scratch has Starlight down on the mat, and is ascending the turnbuckle-
Discord: Vinyl has been working hard to turn things around, and she made be ready to finish things off with a Bass Drop.
-Nurse Redheart gets on the apron and starts distracting the referee, meanwhile Cheerilee grabs both of Vinyl Scratch's legs and forces her down on to the turnbuckle, Starlight takes advantage of this and grabs Vinyl Scratch before lifting her up, spinning her around twice, and then slamming her on the mat-
Dr. Whooves: Bloody hell. The referee was distracted which allowed Cheerilee to interfere and clear the way for Starlight to hit that devastating move!
Discord: I believe she calls that the Double Revolution, and it sure looks effective.
*1...2...3!*
-Crowd Boos-
Baritone: Here is your winner, Starlight Glimmer!
Dr. Whooves: Well, love her or hate her. Starlight Glimmer continues to gain ground.
-Cheerilee and Nurse Redheart throw Vinyl Scratch out of the ring in a rather unceremonious manner before bringing Starlight her microphone-
Starlight Glimmer: Another glorious victory for the messiah of equality. Opponents like Vinyl Scratch are nothing more than minor obstacles in my path, and not worth mentioning aside from a few sentences. The true cause for celebration, is my defeat and utter destruction of Applejack, which has allowed me to ascend to number one contender. Now the way is set for me to become World Fighter's Champion, once that happens I can reshape Sublime into my own image. Once Sublime has seen the wonders of equality, I can spread it to Lunacy as well! All of EWF will come to see the light! I am so close to completing my vision, all the remains is to overthrow the false hero known as Rainbow Dash. Already her weakness has been exposed. Both of her closest allies are out of action, and she is damaged by her miserable failure at the Royal Rumble. The time is right for me to strike! The era of Rainbow Dash will soon come to an end, and the era of STARLIGHT GLIMMER….WILL ARISE!
-Starlight smiles happily while outstretching her arms towards the audience, the crowd boos intensely but Starlight seems totally unfazed-
Starlight: You only boo me because you have been corrupted by the likes of Rainbow Dash. Once I am champion you will see that my way is the only true way. Nurse Redheart and Cheerilee once doubted me as well, but now here they are, standing by my side. They have pledged their allegiance to my cause, and will not stop until we are able to bring true equality to the world! Once they were rejects, pour souls cast aside by the oppression which rules this vile brand. However, thanks to my teachings, they are now being reborn! Soon all the EWF will know and fear the names, and they will take their place as righteous defenders of the truth. I intend for my followers to become Sublime Tag Team Champions. Currently, number one contendership falls to the former champions known as Babs Seed and Sour Tooth. These are two cowardly individuals who do not realize that they are unworthy of these titles. I implore them to test my followers with a match, and if Nurse Redheart and Cheerilee manage to come out on top, they shall become the new number one contenders. Now, former champions, come out here and give me your answer!
-There is silence for a time, but after a few moments the instrumental to Basic Thuganomics plays on the titantron. Babs Seed and Sour Tooth emerge on stage, looking a bit angry and ready for a brawl-
Babs Seed: Yo, it's bad enough my cuz and I lost our titles to those patriot wackjobs. Now we have to listen to some wannabe cult leader diss us?!
Sour Tooth: This shit just ain't right.
Babs Seed: Damn true it ain't. We don't got nothin' to prove to you fools, and that's that.
Starlight: If you're so confident then why refuse our challenge? Fight my followers and prove your superiority!
Sour Tooth: Ay, Babs. What do ya say? Let's kick some ass, might be a good warm-up.
Babs Seed: Ugh, fine. It'll only take a few minutes anyways…
-Starlight grins and Sour Tooth and Babs Seed walk down the ramp and enter the ring-
Match 3: The Acolytes of Equality vs. Babs Seed and Sour Tooth
*4 minutes later*
-Babs Seed and Nurse Redheart go through a series of grapples, just before Redheart can get the upper hand Babs Seed breaks free and starts dishing out a rapid series of punches, finishing it off with a massive punch across the side of Redheart's jaw which knocks her off her feet-
Dr. Whooves: True to her background, Babs Seed's street fighter style is on full display in this match.
Discord: It's blunt but surprisingly effective.
-Babs Seed sets up for a Rotten Core, but Redheart gets loose and manages to tag in Cheerilee just in time-
*4 minutes later*
-Sour Tooth sets up for a Cavity, but Cheerilee counters and hits Sour Tooth with a suplex. She then hits a couple of repeat suplexes before lifting Sour Tooth up and hitting her with an In-Ring Suspension-
Discord: In-ring suspension! This could be it!
-Sour Tooth just barely manages to kick out at 2 count, she then gets up and starts brawling with Cheerilee. This goes on for a short time until Marble and Limestone Pie charge into the ring and start attacking both competitors at the same time-
Dr. Whooves: What the?! The Ghost Girls interfering out of nowhere!
-The crowd boos as the bell rings-
Baritone: By rule of double disqualification, this match is a no contest!
Discord: I have no idea what we just saw. Marble and Limestone had zero stake in this match, nor did they have any relationship with the tag-teams within it. There was no motive for this attack.
-Marble and Limestone slip out of the ring as quickly as they had entered and start walking backwards up the ramp. Limestone glares at the ring with a look of determination, while Marble shyly stares at the ground with a guilty look-
Dr. Whooves: This certainly throws the Sublime Tag Team title situation into chaos. This match was supposed to determine the number one contenders, but now it's hard to say.
*Commercial*
-The camera returns showing footage from a local hospital, where Rainbow Dash is visiting Applejack's room. Applejack is still recovering from her injury, with a cast around her neck-
Rainbow Dash: Hey, AJ. How's it going?
Applejack: I'm doin' alright ah suppose for a gal with a bad neck. Should only be out of action for a month or two.
Rainbow: It's my fault, I should've ran out there and stopped Starlight from doing this to you. You've always watched my back in the past, but I didn't watch yours.
Applejack: Hey, don't start talking like that. You had a big match to prepare for and a lot of other things on your mind. Besides, you've got the perfect chance to get revenge on Starlight for the both of us now. But ya won't be able to do that if you let your mind get cluttered with all that guilt.
Rainbow: You're right, I've got to stay focused if I'm going to shut Starlight up for good. Speaking of that, I've got a match tonight and better get going.
Applejack: Right, be sure to give that Starlight a good slobberknocker for me.
-The camera returns to the Sublime Symposium as the Real Equestrians theme music blares-
Baritone: The following match is scheduled for one fall, introducing first, accompanied by Spitfire and Soarin. From Cloudsdale, weighing 131 pounds and standing five foot, ten inches tall, she is one half of the Sublime Tag Team Champions, Fleetfoot!
-All three of the Real Equestrians step on stage and put their hands over their hearts before shouting "We The People!", and then begin approaching the ring-
Dr. Whooves: Here comes Sublime's newest tag team sensation, the Real Equestrians. Both Spitfire and Soarin had a hard time finding any spotlight for their early months in the EWF, but after joining with newcomer Fleetfoot to create this new faction they've quickly risen through the ranks.
Discord: Just one month after forming they managed to claim the Sublime Tag Team Championship from Babs Seed and Sour Tooth, that's what I call impressive.
*You see me soaring through the sky, I see you below as you walk on by*
-Crowd cheers-
Baritone: And now approaching the ring, from Cloudsdale, weighing 125 pounds and standing five foot, six inches tall, she is the World Fighter's Champion, Rainbow Dash!
-Instead of charging to the ring and slapping hands with fans as normal, this time Rainbow Dash approaches the ring with a disgruntled look-
Dr. Whooves: It seems our champion is still feeling the sting from Team Rich's defeat at the Royal Rumble.
Discord: She performed beyond admirably, being the last member of Team Rich standing, but I suppose it's hard not to feel horrible when the fate of the EWF was on your shoulders and you lost.
Dr. Whooves: This could work either way for Fleetfoot. Those feelings might make Rainbow Dash doubtful and distracted, but they also might serve to make her more aggressive and determined than before.
Match 4: Fleetfoot/w Spitfire and Soarin vs. Rainbow Dash
*7 minutes later*
-Rainbow Dash and Fleetfoot go back and forth with a series of kicks, Fleetfoot stuns Rainbow Dash and uses the ropes to propel herself into the air, however Rainbow Dash does the same and manages to tackle her in mid-air-
Discord: A brutal mid-air collision! These two women have such similar fighting styles it's hard for either of them to get a clear advantage.
Dr. Whooves: It also makes it much easier to predict what your opponent is going to do next.
*5 minutes later*
-Fleetfoot goes for a drop-kick, however Rainbow Dash manages to dodge it and sets up for a Spectrum Slider, Fleetfoot counters in the nick of time and then climbs to the turnbuckle-
Dr. Whooves:Fleetfoot going high risk!
-Fleetfoot hits a Flight of the Fleetest-
Discord: Flight of the Fleetest! Can Fleetfoot pick up a big win over the champion?!
*1...2..-Kick-out!*
Dr. Whooves: Not quite, Rainbow Dash kicked out just in time.
*4 minutes later*
-Rainbow Dash and Fleetfoot trade punches back and forth until Fleetfoot Irish Whips Rainbow Dash into the ropes, Rainbow Dash attempts to hit a flying tackle on the rebound but Fleetfoot dodges it and goes for a Fleeting Moment, however Rainbow Dash manages to counter and hits a Spectrum Slider-
Discord: Spectrum Slider! But Rainbow Dash isn't looking for a pin just yet, she's climbing the turnbuckle for an even bigger hit!
-Rainbow Dash ascends to the top and hits a Sonic Raindrop-
*1...2...3!*
Dr. Whooves: And the champion wins!
Baritone: Here is your winner, Rainbow Dash!
-Rainbow Dash helps Fleetfoot to her feet and the two shake hands-
Dr. Whooves: It's always nice to see the rare display of sportsmanship in the ring rather than constant grudge-filled ambushes.
Spitfire: You should consider joining us, Rainbow Dash. We could use good women like you.
Rainbow Dash: Thanks for the offer, I really appreciate it. But I think I'm better off flying solo for the time being.
Spitfire: Well, the offer is always open. Good luck.
-The Real Equestrians depart the ring, meanwhile Rainbow Dash picks up a microphone-
Rainbow Dash: So, I just thought I'd take a moment to address some hostile comments directed at me earlier. Apparently Starlight Glimmer thinks I'm easy pickings after what happened at the Royal Rumble. I'll admit, losing that much stung a little, and it still stings. It'll probably take me awhile to fully get over what happened, but I'm far from giving up. Lunacy might be doomed, but there's still hope for Sublime. I'm not going to let someone like Starlight destroy that hope. If she thinks she's going to turn this brand into some kind of temple for her new cult, she's dead wrong.
-Crowd cheers in response-
Rainbow: In the end, this is about what the fans want. You all are what make this possible. You don't want someone like Starlight coming out here and shoving some political message down your throats. You come here to see talented people battle it out in the ring! What Starlight doesn't understand is-
*Even through the darkest days, this fire burns ALWAAAAAAAAAAYS*
-Starlight Glimmer and her Acolytes walk out on stage-
Starlight: Poor, foolish, Rainbow Dash. You think you can cling to your power by continuing to mislead these lost sheep. They only follow you because of the title you wear, once I take it away from you your influence over them will be no more.
Rainbow: That's where you're wrong, Starlight. I'm loved by the fans because I have a passion for this industry. I come out here night by night and do everything in my power to put on a good show. But most importantly, I have integrity and respect for what I do. These are things that you lack. All you care about is getting people to worship you like you're some kind of messiah.
Starlight: I am a messiah! I will bring true equality and fairness into the EWF! You slander me because you are afraid, you're afraid that once enough people have heard my message they will see that I am right, and people like you are wrong. You're time is up, Rainbow Dash, and I'm taking your title, one way or another.
-Starlight and her followers start walking towards the ring in a menacing fashion-
Dr. Whooves: Uh-oh, the champion is out numbered here. She better take off and fight another day.
Discord: Doesn't look like she's going to do that though.
-Starlight, Cheerilee, and Nurse Redheart all enter the ring and surrounded Rainbow Dash. After a time they all rush in for the attack. Rainbow Dash knocks both Redheart and Cheerilee back with well placed drop-kicks, but Starlight attacks her from behind and hits a DDT. She then has both Redheart and Cheerilee restrain Rainbow-
Starlight: Just give it up, Rainbow Dash! You're totally at my mercy now. There's nobody left to help you, you're all alone!
"No, she's not!"
Dr. Whooves: What the? It's Twilight Sparkle!
-The crowd cheers as Twilight runs down the ramp and charges into the ring, she immediately starts fighting against Cheerilee and Nurse Redheart knocking them both back with a series of kicks and punches. This allows Rainbow Dash to get back up and join the fray as well. Twilight hits a Spell Check on Nurse Redheart while Rainbow Dash lands a Spectrum Slider on Cheerilee. Both of them roll out of the ring while Starlight is quick to retreat as well, the crowd cheers as Twilight Sparkle and Rainbow Dash stand triumphant in the ring-
Discord: Well what do you know? Twilight Sparkle is on Sublime!
Dr. Whooves: Rainbow Dash badly needed an ally, and now she has one. This certainly complicates Starlight's plan a little.
-The camera shifts backstage to Celestia's office just as Trixie storms inside and marches up to Celestia's desk-
Trixie: The great and powerful Trixie demands to be included in the World Fighter's Championship picture this month!
Celestia: On what grounds?
Trixie: Trixie has been working hard for months and received no opportunity.
Celestia: Because you haven't won anything….
Trixie: How dare you...Trixie….I….*Trixie sighs and slumps down in a nearby chair* Trixie wishes to be released from her contract….
Celestia: You're quitting?
Trixie: There is nothing for Trixie here. Nothing but shame and disgrace.
Celestia: Tell you what. Take a visit to Lunacy next Monday. There's no guarantee my sister will take you, but who knows? You certainly fit the sort of caliber that she usually looks for, maybe you'll get lucky.
Trixie: Hmm..yes...that is a great idea. Trixie will move to a new brand, and Trixie will become even greater than ever before! Soon Trixie will be the biggest name on Lunacy! Trixie is glad she thought of this wonderful idea…
-Trixie walks out while Celestia just shakes her head-
*Commercial*
-When the show returns the ring is practically packed with wrestlers, as teams of 8 line up on each side of the apron-
Dr. Whooves: And we're back, just in time for one of tonight's blockbuster 16 person tag matches. This one will determine the participants in the Fight for your Right ladder match.
Discord: It's going to be absolutely chaotic. This many superstars, with this many colliding personalities having to work together. Who knows what will happen?!
Match 5: Fight for your Right Qualifying Match: Commander Hurricane, Night Glider, Colgate, Amira, Twilight Sparkle, Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Maud Pie vs. Aloe, Lotus Blossom, Daring Do, Marble Pie, Limestone Pie, Nurse Redheart, Cheerilee, and Cloudkicker
*2 minutes later*
-Apple Bloom and Lotus Blossom are trading kicks back and forth, until Apple Bloom manages to grab one of Lotus' legs and hit a hard elbow. She then takes advantage to bring Lotus down to the mat-
Dr. Whooves: Apple Bloom and Lotus Blossom starting off this match with some very back and forth combat. But it looks like Apple Bloom might be gaining the upper hand.
-Apple Bloom sets up for a leg-lock but Lotus Blossom manages to get free and tag in Aloe. Apple Bloom tries to get into a defensive position but is quickly overwhelmed by Aloe who hits the Treatment on her. Aloe follows up with a pin but only gets a 1 count-
Discord: Apple Bloom got caught off guard there, an early close call for her team.
*4 minutes later*
-Cheerilee has Apple Bloom in a corner, and is raining down hit after hit -
Dr. Whooves: Apple Bloom is in a really bad way, she's got to make a tag to one of her partner's quick .
-Cheerilee sets up for Extra Credit, but Apple Bloom counters and drives Cheerilee's face into the mat, she then quickly makes a tag to Sweetie Belle. Sweetie Belle goes to attack Cheerilee but Cheerilee tags in Limestone Pie first. Limestone enters the ring and stares down Sweetie Belle with a menacing glare-
Discord: Oh boy, this is a much more intimidating Limestone than we're used to seeing on Sublime. Sweetie Belle better prepare herself.
*3 minutes later*
-Limestone goes for a Lyme Time but Sweetie Belle counters and breaks free before making a tag to Amira. Amira rushes into the ring and before Limestone has time to react she hits a Dust Devil-
Dr. Whooves: Amira with a stunning offense, could she pick up the win?
-The referee reaches a count of 2 before Limestone's team rushes into the ring to break the pin, soon Amira's team also enters and the entire ring explodes into a giant brawl-
Discord: Yes! Absolute chaos breaking out in the ring now! The referee has lost all control as these two teams have it!
-The brawl spreads out, with much of it spilling outside of the ring. Daring Do dives off the top rope and crashes into a large group of wrestlers, taking out multiple members of both teams including Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, Maud, Cloudkicker, Cheerilee, and Marble Pie-
Dr. Whooves: Unbelievable! Daring Do just took out a horde of people with that suicide dive! But that doesn't even take care of half the wrestlers now brawling around the ring!
-Meanwhile inside the ring Colgate hits a Rinse, Wash, Repeat on Aloe, but in turn is hit with the Treatment from Lotus Blossom, but then Lotus is taken out by Take a Note from Twilight Sparkle-
Discord: Chaos inside the ring as well! So many finishers being hit in such short succession.
-Limestone Pie charges into the ring and throws Twilight down to the floor with a hard Irish Whip, but then Limestone is ambushed by Commander Hurricane who hits her with a Legion, Commander Hurricane then quickly wakes Amira and rushes her into the ring-
Dr. Whooves: Amira and Limestone are still the legal women, this match could end right here!
-Amira covers Limestone-
*1...2…-Kick-out!*-
Discord: What?! Limestone managed to kick out. I can't believe it!
Dr. Whooves: I don't think Commander Hurricane or Amira can believe it either, this match isn't finished yet!
*7 minutes later*
-Night Glider knocks Nurse Redheart down with a Shroud before climbing the turnbuckle. Both Cheerilee and Cloudkicker try to interfere, but Night Glider kicks both of them off the apron before taking a dive and hitting the Dusk Descent. Redheart's remaining teammates look ready to charge the ring, but Night Glider's allies quickly move in and knock them off the apron, allowing Night Glider to make the pin-
*1…..2…..3!*
Discord: Night Glider did it! Night Glider wins the match for her team!
Baritone: Here are your winners, Night Glider, Commander Hurricane, Colgate, Twilight Sparkle, Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, Amira, and Maud Pie!
-All of Night Glider's team start celebrating in the ring-
Dr. Whooves: Night Glider is definitely the hero of the night for her team.
Discord: They're celebrating together for the moment, but they'll all be facing off against each other come High Stakes. Only one of them can take the Fight for your Right briefcase home in the end…
Dr. Whooves: You're absolutely right. It was great seeing these eight women work together, but it'll be even more interesting to see which of them comes out on top when they're all thrown into the free for all.
*Commercial*
-When the show returns Divine Intervention is in the ring, regal music is playing, meanwhile King Blueblood is sitting on a rather luxurious throne set up in the middle of it all-
Discord: We're just in time for King Blueblood's crowning ceremony. This is very historic, as the EWF is about to receive its first ever King of the Ring!
Octavia: It is a glorious night for the EWF. Tonight we crown our new king, Blueblood, who was victorious over several opponents in last month's tournament. Tonight he receives his crown, and at High Stakes he will receive his title when he takes the World Brawler's Championship away from the Underbaker!
-Octavia puts the crown on Blueblood's head. The crowd boos while Blueblood merely smiles. He picks up a microphone in one hand and his old scepter in the other-
Blueblood: Is that really any way to treat your king?
-More boos-
Blueblood: It matters not. For a king does not care about the opinion of peasants. I am like a lion, and everyone in this audience and all the other fighters backstage are nothing but sheep compared to me. I will sweep through Sublime like a roaring wind, becoming the first to defeat the Underbaker in pay-per-view match. Once I've taken his World Brawler's Championship there will be none left who can challenge my glory! It is my right to be king, and it is my right to be champion. The time has come for Sublime's male division to have a champion WORTHY of representing it. Soon the main event will begin, and you will all witness the true power of Divine Intervention when my colleagues Damien Sandow and Hoity Toity lead their team to victory, and undoubtedly one of them will come to dominate in the Brawl for it All ladder match as well. The EWF is in a very poor state, it is time for some Divine Intervention!
Dr. Whooves: A very intense speech from the newly crowned King Blueblood.
Discord: A lot of big promises in that speech, but I think Blueblood is the kind of guy who could actually deliver on those promises.
Dr. Whooves: In any case, it's time for our main event of the evening. Another blockbuster 16 person tag-match. This one to decide who will compete in the Brawl for it All ladder match at High Stakes!
Main Event: Hoity Toity, Damien Sandow, Dr. Caballeron, Big MacIntosh, Pipsqueak, Uncle Wing, Steamer, and Caramel vs. Checkmate, Davenport, Braeburn, Happy Trails, Golden Delicious, Red Delicious,Flim, and Flam
*3 minutes later*
-Caramel and Flim are trading punches in the ring-
Discord: An unlikely starting battle here. The rarely seen Caramel facing off against Flim, a fighter from CCW who's here with his brother Flam to see if they can make it in the big spotlight.
-Caramel goes for a suplex, but Flim counters out and hits a suplex of his own-
Dr. Whooves: Surprise suplex from Flim, can we turn the tide?
-Flim goes for a pin but only gets a 1 count, he responds by tagging in his brother Flam while Caramel quickly escapes and tags in Uncle Wing-
*5 minutes later*
-Braeburn has Uncle Wing up against the turnbuckle and is landing repeated hits, he sets up Uncle Wing at the top of the turnbuckle. Uncle Wing manages to shove Braeburn down to the mat-
Uncle Wing: Sparkle, Sparkle, Sparkle!
-There's a random puff of smoke in the ring as Uncle Wing dives off the turnbuckle. When the smoke clears he already has a pin on Braeburn-
*1...2..-Kick-out!*
Dr. Whooves: I'm not quite sure what just happened there, but this match isn't over yet!
*2 minutes later*
-Damien Sandow and Braeburn go through a series of grapples before Sandow hits a Russian leg-sweep, he goes for a pin but Braeburn turns it around and ends up pinning Sandow instead-
*1..2..-Kick-out!*
Discord: Close call there for Damien Sandow.
-Sandow sets up for a Terminus, but Braeburn breaks free and tags in Davenport, Sandow responds by tagging in Big MacIntosh-
Dr. Whooves: Oh lord, if this isn't a mismatch. Davenport has to now take on the goliath that is Big MacIntosh.
*4 minutes later*
-Big MacIntosh goes for a hard clothesline, but Davenport ducks under it and delivers several sharp kicks behind Big MacIntosh's needs, forcing him into a crouching position-
Dr. Whooves: Smart tactic there by Davenport, taking out the giant's legs.
-Davenport sets up for a Closing Sale, but Big MacIntosh counters and lifts Davenport into the air before throwing him against the mat with extreme force-
Discord: Holy shit! That drop just shattered Davenport! This match could be over right here.
*1...2...3!*
Dr. Whooves: And that's all she wrote.
Baritone: Here are your winners: Big MacIntosh, Dr. Caballeron, Pipsqueak, Uncle Wing, Steamer, Divine Intervention, and Caramel!
Discord: These superstars will certainly make for a chaotic battle come high stakes.
Dr. Whooves: Absolutely, and whoever wins that match is destined to become a future World Brawler's Champion. I can't wait! But for now, we're all out of time. We'll see you next week patrons of Sublime!
-The camera fades out as the winning team celebrates in the ring-

I couldn't find the horizontal line in the Fanfiction editing tool, so I substituted it by holding Shift+- for about 10 seconds. It doesn't look as professional, but it's something, I guess. I had to make due, as it seems the horizontal line was M.I.A. for today. Weird...

Well, I hope you guys enjoyed the first Sublime episode of the month. Any comments are well appreciated. Just so all of my readers can catch up, I won't be posting next week's episode of Lunacy for a few extra days. Gonna give you all extra time to indulge in this past week's content.

And upon uploading this chapter, it seems my Shift+- experiment didn't do a damn thing, as you can't even see the long line it produced. SonuvaBITCH...
