A shot of 2300 Arena is shown with snow coming down in the dark sky, before the cameras cut to the inside to show the fans going ballistic! Some fans are wearing Cameras track shots of rabid fans at ringside wearing merch with tonight's competitors. The barbed wire, extreme-style graphics display on the LED boards and across the ring. We fade over into the commentary booth for tonight featuring Julia Demarco!
JULIA DEMARCO: "Welcome to IVDPW3! Tonight, we are live from Philadelphia, PA, and the card is stacked! We'll get to it in a moment, but first I have to introduce my commentary partner for tonight: BRYAN WILLIAMS!!"
BRYAN WILLIAMS: "Let me say, I have been wanting on one of these shows for awhile now and it's finally great to be here."
JULIA DEMARCO: "Tonight, Emery Layton laid down the challenge and out of a field of many, one person stepped up and was chosen. Layton comes off her lengthy time away from the ring to take on Leela Watts! It's Emery's first match back in quite a long time. This is a dream match you'll only see here tonight on IVDPW3."
BRYAN WILLIAMS: "Also tonight you have a match that I'm looking forward to a lot as the NVR World Champion Karen Willow stepping into the ring against the King's Road Champion Lisa Seldon in a deathmatch! There's just one caviat, it's Karen's first ever deathmatch! Lisa, been in them all around the world. Can Karen weather the storm and come out on top, or will Lisa's experience edge out and pick up the victory?"
JULIA DEMARCO: "In your main event, it's become personal. Former friends, former allies. Fader took being on the IVDPW pre show to heart. Izzy Van Doren takes on Blaise Fader! Fader made this matter personal after almost injuring Izzy's family and claiming Izzy's lost her way. Van Doren gets a measure of revenge against Fader in their first match in over a year. It's all tonight and much, much more on IVDPW3!!!"
BRYAN WILLIAMS: "Let's send it down to VALENTINA LOVELACE for our opening introductions..."
VALENTINA LOVELACE: "The following bout is your opening contest and is scheduled for one fall!"
CROWD: "ONE FALL!!"
The opening chords blare over the PA as young Kiyomi Takeda comes out of the curtain like a ball of fire! She waves to the crowd and has a big bright smile on her face. She poses on the top of the ramp with a double bicep before walking pridefully down towards the ring, waving to some fans along the way.
VALENTINA LOVELACE: "Introducing first: from Osaka, Japan, Pastel Power, KIYOMI TAAAAKEDAAAAA!!!"
JULIA DEMARCO: "Kiyomi Takeda, a relative unknown due to being based in Japan and only starting her career a little over a year ago AND JESUS LOOK AT THOSE GUNS!"
BRYAN WILLIAMS: "The kid's got a lot to prove at only 20 years old. She's got a big platform to do something and hopefully she takes it."
She takes a running start and slides into the ring, she hops up and poses again showing her muscles and smile. She walks to the corner and transitions into her “match mode”.
The playing of the strings cues Norse-like images to appear on the LED boards. The low, growling vocals come over the PA and out comes OZZAR in her warrior attire.
VALENTINA LOVELACE: "And the opponent: From Copenhagen, Denmark, she is The DEATH BRINGERR, OOOOOZZAAAAAARRRR!!"
BRYAN WILLIAMS: "Ozzar. Big. Scary."
JULIA DEMARCO: "Another relative unknown. Ozzar is everything you said, Bryan. She's about to take the Pastel Powerhouse though. Let's see these two clash!"

Tamsin saunters out of the curtain, holding a drink in her hand. She takes a swig and walks down the aisle. She passes by fans thinking nothing of them as they're split on booing/cheering for her.
VALENTINA LOVELACE: "The next match is scheduled for one fall. Coming down the aisle, from Ramsay, Isle of Man, in the UK; she is a member of Nachthexen, TAAAAAMSIIIIIIIIN!!!!"
JULIA DEMARCO: "Bryan, you know a thing or two about Tamsin and Nachthexen."
BRYAN WILLIAMS: "That's putting it lightly. Tamsin has been the figurehead of Nachthexen and they've ran through everyone they come across. She might not look like much, but Tamsin is a deadly serious competitor in that ring."
JULIA DEMARCO: "When she's sober."
BRYAN WILLIAMS: "Correct."
Tamsin sits on the apron finishing her drink before throwing the cup into the crowd. She enters the ring with an arrogant look on her face as she rests in the corner.
The lights dim.
Flashing lights sync with the guitars of "Weatherman" by Dead Sara. We get an image of Sydney St. Clair from behind as the camera is pointed up at her. It revolves around her as we get a look at her face. St. Clair drops her glasses down a bit and winks at the camera. She lifts them back up and walks briskly down to the ring.
VALENTINA LOVELACE: "And the opponent: Residing in Detroit, MI; she is The Weapons Grade PAWG, SYDNEYYY ST. CLAAAAAAIR!!!"
JULIA DEMARCO: "Here's someone I know next to nothing about. Sydney St Clair has a great look. Newer to the scene, but I've studied and she's definitely going places."
BRYAN WILLIAMS: "Weapons Grade PAWG, huh? That's an interesting nickname, but she'll have to get in the ring and prove she can go with Tamsin."
Sydney hops up onto the apron and poses for the crowd and enters the ring, taking the cheers and "PAWG! PAWG! PAWG!" chants from the audience.

BRYAN WILLIAMS: "I said before: Tamsin comes ready for combat and she showed up and showed out tonight against St. Clair."
We cut back to the ring, in the middle of some sort of intermission. There’s music playing and some commotion inside of the ring where there are some kids taking pictures and just having a good time overall. It isn’t even a few seconds later that Tapp comes walking through the audience yelling at the kids. Screaming at them how the ring isn’t a jungle gym for them to play on. He hops the barricade and snatches the microphone from the nearby ring announcer and then proceeds to make his way up the steps.
JULIA DEMARCO: "Tapp... Addams? Who let him in here? He's not scheduled to compete tonight?"
Once in the ring apron, he reaches into his tights pulling out a single Lysol wipe which he uses to clean the bottom of his boots and then steps through the ropes. He shoos the children away sneering at them as they leave, even bringing one to tears. Now finally alone in the ring Tapp pulls the microphone to his lips head shaking in disappointment.
TAPP: "What is wrong with you people. Shame on all of you. Izzy has ignored you all for months now. Didn’t say a single word. Let her travesty of a sister speak for her. Didn’t even have the decency to talk face to face. And the moment she pops up you’re back with your unconditional love and service. You people make me sick. SHE DOESNT CARE ABOUT ANY OF YOU! Take it from me. I should know. She turned her back on me the same way. Left me to drown in my struggles while she watched and prospered. But oh how the tables turned. She got out on the shelf. And right about that same time. My career really took off. It’s thriving even. I mean I WAS IN A SCAFFOLD MATCH DAMN IT! But am I on the card? Do I have a match here. No. Because Izzy Is an egomaniac. She’s an actual sociopath. Can’t put her ego aside and guarantee you people some REAL wrestling. Not that you deserve it."
The Wrestler Formally Known As Tapp, was fuming now. Sweat dripping from his face. Fist clenched. Voice raising in volume.
TAPP: "Izzy has always only cared about her self. And if you really think about it all of PLC only cared about themselves. Karen had me carry her to the tag titles. She had me carry her through the finals of the Eddy Poe Memorial Tournament too. And Izzy was so conceited she couldn’t even let Danny, her supposed friend, enjoy his title reign. And don’t even get me started on that little mutt. He talks a big game but won’t come anywhere near where I’m working. You know why? Because he’s Afraid. He’s scared of me. Tapp. Because he knows that I’m better than him. I’m better than all of them. I’m better than every single one of y-"
Tapp was cut off by the power being killed to his microphone, the very lights of the arena begin changing to rusty orange with no warning. What the hell was going on? The confused tittering among the crowd was nearly silent for the moment as they all tried to get their bearing. What the hell was even going on? Then, just like that, the emergency lights kicked on, and over the sound system, music began to play.

Daniel MacNamara He was there. He was in the ring as the lights cut on. Tall, broad shouldered, and ginger as ever! He stood there, just a few feet behind Tapp. The commotion from the crowd caused Tapp to turn around eyes wide, practically bulging out of his head. He takes a few steps back distancing himself from the unwelcome guest. This is the worst possible outcome he could've anticpated.Tossing the microphone to the side, he screams at Danny, scanning him with his eyes for any sort of movement. Of course, Danny didn’t move. He stood there with his hands by his sides, waiting.
TAPP: “WHAT DO YOU WANT!”
Daniel’s answer? He just lifted his hand and pointed right at Tapp, brows lifting expectantly as if the other man was supposed to get what he meant. Tapp shook his head in disbelief, laughter escaping his lips. Tapp is pacing in the corner, the audacity to interrupt him talking. Tapp changes his mood and Tapp rushes MacNamara with a clothesline, but Danny ducks it catching the arm. Danny lifts Tapp up and drops him with the Bad Dog's Bite. The crowd chant "1! 2! 3!". MacNamara throws Tapp's legs to the side and stands over his "opponent". He kneels over him and says something. Danny leaves the ring and Tapp slowly comes to. Tapp looks like he doesn't know where he is, but when he looks back to see Danny walking up the aisle, he throws a tantrum in the center of the ring.
Backstage! In a deserted corridor. Presumably everyone else is hidden away in their own space. But all through the night, the corridor we occupy right now has been claimed by one person. And she approaches, whistling away. And after a few seconds, that distinctive voice follows. Not quite Irish. Not quite English. And it could only belong to one person.
EMERY LAYTON: Always whistle when I'm nervous. Can't help it. Just happens. The goosebumps start then suddenly I'm off, like a canary. It is canary, innit? I've not just made them up. Some kinda bird anyway.
And she turns us around. Emery Layton appears in our vision. Her beanie on her head. Her battered old leather jacket on and her old ring gear in-tact. Her hair is freshly dyed orange. It's like she's never left us. She paces back and forth.
EMERY LAYTON: There's gonna be a day, right, there's gonna be a day where everybody wakes up and hears what I been telling you lot all along. I used to have a buncha nicknames. The Worst of the Pavees, the She-King, the Bees Knees, the Big Cheese, the Cat's Meow, the Trench War Traveller, the Wearer of Many Hats, so many I could probs sell the lot of them and buy myself a nice little island. But when some dirty, no-good scumbag like me calls herself a problem that can't be stopped, the Girl Who Lives Forever...you best take that to heart. They done me real dirty, lads, two years back, they tried to put me outta this business. But I ain't here to cry about it cos Emery Layton didn't die in vain, no sir she did not, cos I stand here to tell ya now- I am ALIVE.
She repeats her statement once again, her arms out and yelling it to the skies. Em let's her arms drop to her side, wiping her face. She is jittery and can't keep still. We're following her like she's a ball in a tennis match.
EMERY LAYTON: But I'll tell you this, if that girl died, way back when, then I'm back to avenge her and I want everyone to know about it. Izzy Van Doren says she got a show, I go 'ey, Izzy, you lemme do an open challenge, lets see what happens'. Coulda just done a match but Nuh-UH, nah, I wanted the world to know. Cos that's how it goes now. I bang the drum and the people, they dance. And Leela Watts, she got some real rhythm, lemme tell ya. We never met before but I got eyes everywhere, like some sorta Eldritch horror, I know everybody, man. And I know she ain't nothing to fuck with. Put the Disney princess stuff aside, that girl knows what the hell she's doing and that's why I accepted. And everyone else who asked, I'll answer your wishes ya soon.
She stops suddenly.
EMERY LAYTON: But knowing what your doing is bare minimum, I don't get outta bed for nothing less. So Leela, you bring all you got cos you and everybody else gotta contend with a battering ram made from two years of repressed Me. Every day looking back at myself in the mirror saying 'you can be so much more than THIS'. And oh, hell fucking yes I can.
She gets in real close.
EMERY LAYTON: IVDPW, 'having your Da' ain't enough no more, I'm about to be the straight-up Homewrecker now. Let everybody know that Emery Layton never runs away- she runs her mouth and she runs this shit.
And now, a fired-up Emery Layton- after a wink and a manic but cheery smile- vacates the scene.
VALENTINA LOVELACE: "The following contest is an open challenge schedule for one fall! Introducing first, from San Francisco, CA by way of County Limerick, Ireland; the She-King, Your ....DA's Favorite, EMERYYYYYYY LAAAAAAYTOOOOON!!!"

JULIA DEMARCO: "Shake it off. I see what you did there."
BRYAN WILLIAMS: "...what?"
Once she reaches the bottom of the ramp, she speeds up the steel steps and climbs the turnbuckle. As the fans cheer, it's quite obviously not loud enough for her, as she lifts her arms up, indicating for them to get louder. Once the eccentric Irish traveler has spent enough time up there, Emery leaps down from the top rope and into the ring, transitioning from that into probably the most graceful, crisp forward-roll you've ever seen. Once she's in there, she runs to the rope right behind her bouncing off it as she drops to her knees and skids forwards, as all the lights drop except a single spotlight on her and the lights from cell phone cameras as her upperbody falls backwards. After a few moments of just simply listening to the cheers, she flips onto her front and crawls into her corner, sitting down with her legs flat out, waiting for the match to begin.
The drums from “Shake It Off” tap count in as the lights shift to bright purples and blues. Leela bursts through the curtain with a bubbly smile on her face as the music plays. As she poses on the top of the ramp the fans erupt in a loud cheers. Confetti cannons cue as Watts walks down the aisle, waving to the fans on both sides of the ramp. She stops at a young girl and takes off one of her bracelets giving it to the young fan who is very excited about this before she walks away.

“What’s you plan for tomorrow? Are you a leader, or will you follow? Are you a fighter, or will you cower. It’s our time to take back the power!”
Izzy walks out of the curtain, her head pointed down until she’s greeted with chants of “Izzy! Izzy! Izzy!” that reverberate around The 2300 Arena. Her head tilts up and stares daggers at Fader. She takes in the sight of this audience cheering her name at one of her own shows. She walks down the aisle with a determined look on her face.
VALENTINA LOVELACE: And the opponent: from Chicago, IL; she is IZZY VAAAAAAAAN DOOOOREEEEEEEEN!!!
