♫ “Dirt Off Your Shoulder” by Jay-Z ♫
The music plays and some fans bob their heads to the music, followed by a polite response for the BRAZEN recapper/reporter! Dressed in a tuxedo coat, shirt with black bowtie, white horn-rimmed glasses and tuxedo… shorts, SuperDEFFan64 looks a little nervous to be out in front of so many people, but eventually warms up to The Faithful! He makes his way over to the Interview Stage off to the right and his music fades.
Darren Quimbey:
And representing DEFIANCE as well as The Butch Vic Clique… he is the spokesman for DEFIANCE official sponsor, Mic Dropz Energy… please welcome… BUTCHER VICTORIOUS!
♫ “Microphone Fiend” by Erik B. and Rakim ♫
RRRRRAAAAAAHHHHH!
Standing with his back to the audience and his head ducked down, the familiar mohawk is present. Wearing a sparkling purple sequined dress coat and pants, shiny black shoes and to tie this all together… a Mic Drops Energy belt with various cans holstered, Butcher holds out The Stick v2™ in hand and then raises it to the sky as he spins around to face The Faithful! The DEFIANCE Wrestle-plex goes crazy as he makes his way over to the Interview Stage. He shakes hands with SuperDEFFan64 and once he reaches the stage, he addresses the crowd.
Butcher Victorious: [with The Faithful repeating]
BUTCH VIC HAS THE STICK…
Grin! He points to his head.
Butcher Victorious: [with The Faithful repeating]
BUTCH VIC HAS THE SKULL THAT’S THICK…
He points all across the sold-out arena!
Butcher Victorious: [with The Faithful repeating]

Butcher gestures to the energy drink holster.
Butcher Victorious:
And Butch Vic… has the drink with a kick! Mic Dropz Energy, bay-beeeeeeeeeeee! Welcome to TAG PARTAYYYYYYYYYYYY SIX!
The Faithful are with the Masters of Ceremonies as Butcher begins.
Butcher Victorious:

SuperDEFFan64:
So many emotions… all at once. Excitement! Nervousness! I remembered my good deodorant! Go me! And welcome all to Tag Party Six! Thank you for joining us tonight!
Another cheer.
Butcher Victorious:
Tag Party Six rocks. BRAZEN means a lot to me personally. I used to be one of those guys who toiled for a long time, wrestling shows in flea markets, bingo halls and a garage a time or two, trying to cut his teeth. Now, we’ve got BRAZEN Studios. We’re seeing their rising talent being highlighted by the week! They’re filling up! And tonight, we’re gonna see what BRAZEN is made of!
SuperDEFFan64:
That’s right. I’ve had the honor of covering BRAZEN for a little over a year now and I see it first-hand. There are so many talents there busting their asses… can I say asses?
Butcher Victorious:
Well, you didn’t get beeped, compadre, so I think you’re good.
SuperDEFFan64:
Thanks, Butch. Like I said, I cover the talent there every Single Shot, every Double Shot! Every untelevised event, every televised event like this one! They’ve got EVERYTHING! HOSSFITES! TECH FITES! TAG TEAMS! WOMEN’S DIVISION! Everything! And I’m really excited to see these teams compete tonight!
Butcher Victorious:
Me, too, man. Me, too. I can’t wait. This show has helped propel careers and added to legacies! Dex Joy! Nathan Eye! Punch Drunk Purcell! Pat Cassidy! Declan Alexander! Conor Fuse! Lindsay Troy! Elise Ares! A LOT of the top names have been through this tournament and have gone on to big things! And as much fun as being BUTCH VIC WITH THE STICK, y’all are here to see some wrestling so we’re gonna get to it! We’ve got the rules for Tag Party Six up on the DEFIAtron! And the prize up for grabs! $100,000 from Favoured Saints!

The show kicks off with none other than two of the toughest guys in DEFIANCE today! “The Emerald Apex” Kerry Kuroyama! “Sub Pop” Scott Douglas! The returning pair get a THUNDEROUS ovation to start the show! They hit the ring and get ready for an old enemy.
♫ “300 Violin Orchestra” by Jorge Quintero ♫
The methodical and determined Tyler Fuse, ACE of DEFIANCE in hand, marches out and down the rampway, his stone cold eyes locked in on two men that he has had many battles with. Next to him, former BRAZEN Champion, BRAZEN Tag Team Champion, RISE tournament winner and old Tyler Fuse rival, BIGBOSS Batts raises his hands. The two glare at one another then head to the ring. Once they get there, Batts starts off with Kerry, who have also met before years ago. They shake hands.
The bell rings and the two lock up! The battle goes all around the mat as both men lock up aggressively! They exchange holds and pins across the mat to big cheers from the crowd… but Tyler won’t have that and tags himself in! Kerry switches tactics from mat grappling to quick scrapping! Big blows are exchanged to big cheers from The Faithful! Kerry elbows Tyler and tags Scott and the two hit a double back elbow and double elbow drop! Two-count by Kerry!
Scott hasn’t forgotten any pain inflicted on him in years past by Tyler goes after the Ace of DEFIANCE with corner shots. Tyler counters by kicking his knee and throwing Scott outside the ring. Tyler sends him CRASHING into a barricade with a big whip, then works the knee of Scott with a slam into the steel steps! Back in the ring, Tyler has taken over. Batts tags himself in which Tyler is not a fan of! Batts works over the knee in more conventional ways, using a tight upright half crab.
The Faithful start ringing out in loud “Sub Pop!” chants as he makes the ropes! Tyler tags himself in again and works over the knee more methodically, slamming Scott’s knee into the canvas over and over! He goes for an STF, but Scott fights and gets the ropes again! A figure-four around the ring post is tried, but Scott pulls his legs in and smacks Tyler into the corner!
Tyler is dazed, but rolls in and Batts tags himself in, but it’s too late! Kerry is in! He runs through and blitzes through BIGBOSS Batts with a number of suplexes including an overhead belly-to-belly, a release german, then follows up with a corner elbow smash and exploder suplex out of the corner! Kerry hits a dominator… saved by Tyler! Scott Douglas jumps back in and sends him out with a cobra clutch overhead suplex! Tyler bounces out of the ring, only to collect his ACE of DEFIANCE and leave the ringside are, leaving Batts all alone for Kerry to finish the job!
KUROYAMA DRIVER!
He hooks the legs!
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
♫ “Together We’ll Never” by Green River ♫
WINNERS: SEATTLE’S BEST @ 11:16 (Kuroyama Driver, Kuroyama pins Batts)
Tyler looks angry, but says eff this situation and holds the ACE close to him with bigger plans clearly on his mind. Meanwhile, Kerry and Scott both help Batts to his feet and shake hands. The former BRAZEN Champion leaves the ring and heads to the back while the two celebrate!
DDK:
What a win by Seattle’s Best to make it to the A Block Finals later! Fuse and Batts just couldn’t get along enough to put it together. Years worth of making enemies of all these men may have come back to haunt Tyler.
Lance:
Kuroyama and Douglas off to a hot start tonight! Let’s get to B Block action next! One of the top favorites to win the tournament, Max Luck and BRAZEN’s youngest giant, the seven-foot three Rowzilla up next against the team of Strong AF and Aleczander!

One stands at seven feet tall! One stands at seven-foot THREE! Max Luck and Rowzilla get a huge ovation from The Faithful as well as they head towards the ring. The two giants reach the ring, bump fists, then step over the ropes and climb inside. Max Luck throws up “The Winning Hand” and Rowzilla with the three fingers to represent the Third Generation Giant!
♫ “Watch Me" by The Phantoms ♫
The music plays for the giants… and nobody comes out yet…
BUT FROM BEHIND, STRONG AF AND ALECZANDER BOTH ENTER AND ATTACK THE GIANTS!
The bell ring and the two take the legs out from under Max Luck, then single out Rowzilla! The 260-pound Strong AF and the 268-pound Aleczander The Great simultaneously attack the giant rookie and hit numerous running corner clotheslines on him! They both try and take him up and over for a suplex…

The bell rings with Newell and Mancini locking up!
They slam into one another! Repeatedly! Big shoulders blocks all around with neither man gaining ground immediately! Finally, Newell knocks Mancini over with a shoulder block off both sets of ropes and hits a flipping senton for two on Mancini! He tries to get Mancini in the corner, but Mancini hits an elbow and then leaps to the middle rope and comes back with a flying shoulder block off the ropes.
The two agile big men tag over to their corners with Dex Joy and Titus Campbell mixing it up! Dex shakes hands! They also trade shoulder tackles then its Dex that scores the first knockdown on Titus with a big shoulder! He scoops him up and hits a body slam and falling headbutt.

DDK:
Hard-hitting action the whole way through, but The Biggest Best Bulls make it through to the C Block Finals later tonight!
Lance:
The way they operated tonight, I think Dex Joy could be the first-ever repeat winner of Tag Party V!
DDK:
We now get to the second round of Block matches! The winners of the next match between The Dog Pound - Tag Party V winner Punch Drunk Purcell and former BRAZEN Star Cup winner Aiden Harlow take on El Escuadron - GC Universe member DLJ and Bonita en Rosa II!
BLOCK A: DOG POUND (Punch Drunk Purcell/"The Hound" Aiden Harlow) vs. EL ESCUADRON (DLJ/Bonita en Rosa II)
♫ "The Sweet Science” by Rasco ♫
Tag Party V winner Punch Drunk Purcell comes out to defend his crown! Former BRAZEN Star Cup winner “The Hound” Aiden Harlow bumps fists with Purcell and the two men head down to ringside. Purcell has his mouthpiece in and the two climb into the ring ready to handle business against one of the newest groups to hit DEFIANCE…
♫ "Get Money” by Akon and Aneul AA ♫
From the side of the stage, an SUV limo pulls up! Out steps the GC Universe members… “The GLOAT” Mil Vueltas, BRAZEN Women’s Champion Bonita en I and the Tag Party VI participants - Mil’s giant “hermano” DLJ and Bonita en Rosa II! The BRAZEN tandem walk arm in arm to the ring!
The match starts off with Aiden Harlow and Bonita en Rosa II! Aiden gets the better of Bonita taking her to the mat with a succession of headlock takeovers and throws, scoring a german suplex for two. Harlow whips her into the ropes, but she comes back with a dropkick to the leg followed by a shining wizard, then makes the tag to DLJ who CRASHES into Harlow with the Dash and Bash shoulder tackle! DLJ tags to Bonita II and helps her with an aided frog splash off the top, but only scores a two-count!
Purcell tries to cheer on his tag partner and gets the crowd involved with En Rosa going for a tornado DDT, only for Harlow to reverse into an inverted sitdown powerbomb followed by a big saito suplex for two! He tries another move off the ropes, but Mil Vueltas trips him up behind the official’s back! The GLOAT walks away from ringside and holds hands with Bonita en Rosa I with her acting as an alibi. DLJ comes in and scores with a running senton for two! DLJ picks him up for a suplex, but Harlow turns it into a stunner on the way down!
TAG TO PURCELL!

That has to be an upset right there! The Tag Party V winner goes out in round one, thanks to the constant distractions of Mil Vueltas and Bonita en Rosa I of El Escuadron!

♫ “How Soon Is Now” by The Smiths ♫
Madame Melton walks out and is proud to show off “The Fatal Attraction” JJ Dixon. Behind them, the former BRAZEN Champion Nick “Lotto” Otto walks out and shakes hands with Melton and shows off the winning scratch ticket he has in a case he wears around his neck. The “Most Humble Man in BRAZEN” walks alongside Dixon as the pair enter the ring.
Tommy Dasher and Nick Lotto Otto take to the skies first! Tommy takes him to the mat with a cravate and has the crowd cheering as he yells about “smelling the bag!” Nick yells out that his money was earned via scratch ticket and won’t be taken!

Dixon and Otto have their arms raised. Otto kisses his winning Lottery Ticket necklace and Madame raises the arms of Dixon before the trio leave to prepare for the B Block finals.
DDK:
That was a really impressive showing from the Dasher Sibs and they almost had the win, but Dixon, a former Favoured Saints Champion and Otto, the former BRAZEN Champion, could both go all the way!
Lance:
That they could. And I gotta say, that tag team name is top tier Tag Party of names we’ve ever heard.
DDK:
Indeed. And a very deadly tandem behind them to boot!
BLOCK C: TEAM DISCOVERY CHANNEL (Ned Reform/Angel Trinidad) vs. FAIR PLAY WITH DOLLS ("Fair Play" Dabney Doubleday/Edgar w/Larry(tm))
♫ “Fur Elise” by Cole Rolland ♫
The booing nearly blows the roof off the building! The Southern Heritage Champion, Ned Reform, makes his way out with his right-hand man, TA Cole at his side holding up the title for all to see behind him. Behind them, is the 6’10” BRAZEN Angel Trinidad! Ned and TA Cole look up at the Team HOSS member and they nod with a mutual understanding for tonight’s tournament. Ned poses while Angel paces around the ring and await their opponents.
♫ “Southern Nights” by Glenn Campbell ♫
The young DEFIANCE newcomer, Dabney Doubleday greets the crowd with Dougie Doubleday behind him. Behind them, the BRAZEN Star Cup holder, Edgar holds out his ventriloquist dummy, Larry™. The eclectic tri… nay, quartet head on down to the ring. Ned Reform almost can’t help but crack up at his opponents. Once they get inside the ring, it’s the young upstart Doubleday looking to start things off.
Once the bell rings, Dabney locks up with Reform, but he takes him down with a quick hip toss, then taps on his head. Dabney tries again, only to get picked up with a scoop slam. Ned continues to get jeered by the masses, then takes him down with a big dropkick! Ned casually boots Doubleday on the side of the head, but when he takes time to gloat, Doubleday returns fire! He takes him over with hip toss of his own, followed by a atomic drop called the Hotseat, then scores with a dropkick! Ned goes through the ropes and looks angry with Fair Play showing his stuff!
Ned comes back in and tags Angel Trinidad for not wanting to engage with the upstart. Angel comes in and swings for a running clothesline, but Doubleday ducks and tags in Edgar. Trinidad charges at both Edgar and Dabney, but Dabney goes low with a dropkick to the knee and Edgar goes high with a spinning heel kick that knocks Angel into the corner. Dougie (and Larry, probably) cheer on their respective clients. Doubleday and Edgar both grab and arm and try to whip Trinidad, but he breaks through double clothesline attempt and surprises them both with a double dropkick, one from each leg! The 6’10” Team HOSS member tags in Ned who now wants in and goes to attack the BRAZEN Star Cup holder! The Mad Gadfly throws him outside the ring and gives TA Cole a free shot with a back suplex on the apron!
Reform hits a huge clothesline on Edgar once he’s back in the ring and taps his head to show how smart he is before going for a cover, only getting two! Reform tries to pull Edgar up, only for Edgar to stun him with a seated jawbreaker followed by a front dropkick! Edgar tries to get to Doubleday, but Angel Trinidad tags in and grabs Edgar! He picks him up and hits a rib breaker before throwing him halfway across the ring! Angel tries a cover, but Doubleday breaks it up at two!
Doubleday goes back to his corner and wants in. Angel goes to pick up Edgar for a chokeslam, but the BRAZEN Star Cup holder drops him with a DDT to counter! The tag is made to Doubleday who goes to the top rope and comes off with a Rise and Shine fist drop on Angel! Doubleday hits the giant with some jabs, then Doubleday then locks on the Knapsack sleeper hold and jumps on Angel’s back! The Team HOSS member staggers back, but doesn’t see Reform’s blind tag! Doubleday gets shaken off just as Reform hits the ring and CLOCKS him with the Equivocator flying headbutt!
Reform gets angered as Angel charges over and kicks Edgar off the apron! Reform grabs Doubleday…
SYLLABUSTER!
Reform hooks the legs and the three-count is… pun intended… academic!
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
♫ “Fur Elise” by Cole Rolland ♫
WINNERS: TEAM DISCOVERY CHANNEL @ 9:51 (Syllabuster, Reform pins Doubleday)
Edgar, Dougie Doubleday and Larry™ all regroup outside the ring. Meanwhile, TA Cole continues raising the SOHER on The Good Doctor’s behalf. Reform looks pleased with Angel Trinidad, who nods as they get ready to head to the C Block Finals.

Lance:
Dex Joy and Ned Reform are no strangers to each other and they will renew their old rivalry over the FIST from last year with two powerhouses on each side!

That concludes all Tag Party Opening Block matches! And now, we’re gonna kick it over to tonight’s hosts - Butcher Victorious and SuperDEFFan64!
TAG PARTY RECAP
Back to the interview stage with Butcher Victorious and SuperDEFFan64.
Butcher Victorious:
HOT DAMN! Those matches ruled and we’ve still got four more to go tonight! 64, what’d you think?
SuperDEFFan64:
I jumped, Butcher! El Escaudron defeating Dog Pound? Punchy, who co-won last year’s tournament out in the first round? I DIDN’T SEE THAT COMING!
Butcher Victorious:
And MAN! How fast did Triple Sevens clean the clocks of Team HOSS 2K24? I thought that one was gonna go longer! A couple minutes?! God, I feel bad for Your Money or Your Life!
SuperDEFFan64:
Not me! I ain’t no dummy! JJ Dixon is good enough to beat anybody in DEFIANCE! Nick Lotto Otto is a schemer, too! But we can’t sleep on Block C! That’s gonna be a CLOSE one! Dex, a Tag Party II winner with Nathan Eye, but now with his other protege, “Young Bull” Tate Newell? Incredible talent! They’re stilll in this tournament, but he’s staring down Ned Reform and Angel Trinidad? How good did THEY look for a first-time team? Angel Trinidad was a big-time player years ago, he might be getting back to that tonight!
Butcher Victorious:
And Y’ALL… how good was it seeing Seattle’s Best in action! It had to feel good sticking it to Tyler Fuse! I was just a wee BRAZEN lad when The Fuse Bros 360 TERRORIZED those guys! Granted, Tyler bailed on BIGBOSS Batts, another guy he used to have issues with, but… hey, he’s got The Ace. That still makes him dangerous.
SuperDEFFan64:
It really does! Six teams left! Seattle’s Best, El Escuadron, The Triple Sevens, Your Money or Your Life, Team Discovery Channel and The Biggest Best Bulls!
Butcher Victorious:
We’ve got the three Block Final matches coming up and honestly, guy? Bangers. Bangers EVERYWHERE! I don’t see a single match that won’t bang.
SuperDEFFan64:
BANGERS, BABY! SOUND THE CERTIFIED BANGER ALARM, GUYS!
The Faithful cheer on the Masters of Ceremonies as Butcher Victorious cracks open a Mic Dropz Energy.
Butcher Victorious:
Before we take it to the Block Final matches, I’d also like to take this time to say thank you personally to DEFIANCE’s new sponsor, Mic Dropz Energy, for choosing this crazy little Texan to represent them on our shows and to DEFIANCE itself for giving Butch Vict the chance to USE THE STICK to host a big show like this! Back when I was a BRAZEN guy fighting for ANY sort of air time… I didn’t dream that I was gonna be trusted with the responsibility of getting to do anything major, let alone representing any brand. But now that I am, I appreciate it sincerely. Thank you to DEFIANCE and thank you to Favoured Saints for the opportunity to do something like this… so… raise your drinks everyone…
Fans with drinks in hand in the audience raise their cups/cans. SuperDEFFan64 is given a can as well. He cracks it open and holds it up with Butcher.
Butcher Victorious:
A toast to good times! And a toast to Tag Party Six moving on and a toast to bangers everywhere! Cheers, everyone!
The Faithful erupt in a nice cheer and toast! Butcher and SuperDEFFan64 smash their cans together, spilling a lot on the BRAZEN reporter!
SuperDEFFan64:
NOOOOO MY TUXEDO SHORTS!

♫ "Get Money” by Akon and Aneul AA ♫
For the second time tonight, the personal SUV limo of one Mil Vueltas pulls up and once again, the fabulous foursome that make up El Escuadron bask in the jeers of The Faithful. DLJ and Bonita en Rosa II both receive pep talks from Mil Vueltas and Bonita I as they hit the ring. Bonita en Rosa II actually wants to start against Scott Douglas, which comes as a slight surprise, but Seattle’s Best are equal-opportunity competitors. The bell rings with the Seattleite and the luchadora circling up…
BUT DLJ COMES IN AND CLOCKS SCOTT FROM BEHIND!
The Faithful boo El Escuadron out of the building as Bonita jumps near the ropes and hits a triangle dropkick to knock Kerry off the apron unsuspectingly! She rushes over for DLJ to come in and attack Scott Douglas with a Dash and Bash shoulder tackle off both sets of ropes! The Front Runner jumps right into a cover!
ONE!
TWO!
NO!
Douglas kicks out! Kerry tries to stand, but Bonita en Rosa II goes flying with a somersault plancha into a headscissors that snaps him over to the floor! DLJ then grabs Doulgas and hits a flurry of running corner clotheslines to show off his incredible power/speed combination followed by a big release blue thunder bomb! Cover on Scott!
ONE!
TWO!
KICKOUT!
The Front Runner runs over to tag Bonita II and picks her up as she runs the ropes. He throws her high in the air into a diving senton on the way down!
ONE
TWO!
KERRY BREAKS IT UP!
DLJ runs back into the ring and charges at Kerry, a little conflicting over battling a former fellow Vae Victis member. DLJ then decides to run forward, but he pulls the ropes down and The Front Runner goes out of the ring! Bonita en Rosa II goes for another flying headscissors on Kerry, but this time he’s ready! He runs towards a ready and waiting Douglas who is finally up and she gets dropped with a combo powerbomb/backstabber combo!
Douglas picks up Bonita II…
SUB POP SUPLEX!
He bridges right into the cover! DLJ tries to make the save, but Kerry restrains him with a sleeper in the ropes!
ONE!

♫ “Together We’ll Never” by Green River ♫
WINNERS: SEATTLE’S BEST @ 8:26 (Sub Pop Suplex, Douglas pins Bonita II)
Mil Vueltas stares down both Douglas and Kuroyama from outside the ring before the GC Universe members all regroup. DLJ helps Bonita II out of the ring and carries her all the way to the back while Mil and Bonita I walk off frustrated, Meanwhile, inside the ring, Douglas and Kuroyama both bump fists and take in a HUGE applause from The Faithful for their efforts tonight!
DDK:
What a sprint that was! El Escuadron had a game plan in mind and executed it well for a while, but Douglas and Kuroyama show what true veterans can do in that ring under pressure!
Lance:
DLJ and Bonita en Rosa II did well in this tournament, but up next, we’re going to be taking the action to the B Block Finals. Perhaps the most powerful tandem in this entire tournament, The Triple Sevens take on one that is very dangerous, Your Money Or Your Life!
BLOCK B FINALS MATCH
♫ “World on Fire” by Corrosion of Conformity ♫
A big ovation erupts for the largest men in Tag Party history! Max Luck flashes The Winning Hand and Rowzilla pose on the ramp! They both launch towards the ring and they look ready for a fight in the Block B Finals!
♫ “How Soon Is Now” by The Smiths ♫
Booing replaces the cheers from just moments before! Madame Melton leads out “The Fatal Attraction” JJ Dixon along with Nick “Lotto” Otto! The cunning tandem were victorious earlier tonight over The Dasher Sibs and look to continue that path to the finals!
Max Luck starts off with Nick “Lotto” Otto with Otto going low and kicks the legs of Max, only for Max to push him into the corner for a big biel throw. He picks him up and hits a second one then he tags in Dixon! Dixon does not show the same level of trepidation as Otto and goes right at Luck with running forearms! The Beast of the Bright Lights is in a corner when Dixon climbs up and rains down punches - not in the fun fan countalong, but the raining punches down! The official makes him break!
Dixon tries a running boot in the corner, but Max catches him and hits a fallaway slam! He hits a snapmare next and a running low dropkick off the ropes for a two-count! Madame Melton tries to get the attention of the official, giving Otto a chance to try and sneak-attack Max. Otto hits a springboard, only to get rocked with a big throat thrust first! But that distraction gives Dixon the chance to score with a direct uppercut below the Equator! He stumbles near the ropes and Dixon hits a huge hell of a kick in the corner (a corner big boot that is). Max goes down and Dixon tries a cover, only to get a two-count.
Otto gets the tag and he jumps with the Powerball springboard swanton, only to get a two! Dixon gets another tag and the two men hit a running leg lariat and Nick hits the Quick Pick jawbreaker. He goes for the cover…
ONE!
TWO!
ROWZILLA BREAKS IT UP!
The 7’3” BRAZEN rookie returns to his corner. Dixon tags Otto one more time and they both try to pick Max Luck off his feet, but he knocks them both down with a double Check Raise flying clothesline!
TAG TO ROWZILLA!
He picks up Otto with a huge and high body slam, then grabs Dixon and slams him on top of Otto! The Third Generation Giant shakes the ropes violently with The Faithful cheering him along! He goes for Otto and kicks him in the face with a 7’3” standing side kick aka The Super Giant Kick! Dixon tries to cut off the giant, but Max Luck flattens him on the outside with a cross body block! Rowzilla has Otto up and DRIVES him down with the Don’t Look Down! The backbreaker rack chokeslam connects and Rowzilla makes the cover!
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
♫ “I” by Tyr ♫
WINNERS: THE TRIPLE SEVENS @ 8:29 (Don’t Look Down, Rowzila pins Otto)
Madame Melton is FURIOUS! Max Luck stands in the ring triumphantly with Rowzilla, securing their ticket to the Tag Party VI Finals! Madame Melton helps Dixon up and the two walk off from ringside without checking on Otto!
DDK:
Your Money Or Your Life took it to Max Luck for a while, but how unstoppable did Rowzilla look in that ring?!
Lance:
That was a very strong performance tonight by both teams, but The Triple Sevens persevere and join Seattle’s Best in tonight’s finals!
DDK:
And WHAT a finals for Block C we have coming up! The Biggest Best Bulls - Dex Joy! Tate Newell! They take on the Southern Heritage Champion Ned Reform and the powerhouse Angel Trinidad! That match… up next!
BLOCK C FINALS MATCH
♫ "Undefeated" by Beacon Light and Tommee Profitt ♫
THE BIGGEST POP FOR THE BIGGEST BOY AGAIN! Dex Joy enters followed by Tate Newell and then the two men head to the ring looking ready to take this fight to the finals. For Dex, the chance to be the first-ever two-time winner of Tag Party! For Tate Newell, his biggest achievement yet.
♫ “Fur Elise” by Cole Rolland ♫
And just as Dex Joy received massive cheers, they turn the other way into nuclear jeers. The Southern Heritage Champion, Ned Reform, makes his way out with his right-hand man, TA Cole at his side holding up the title for all to see behind him for the second time. Behind them, is the 6’10” Angel Trinidad looks ready to break bones. With the smuggest of smug looks, Reform heads to the ring with his trio for the night. Dex Joy stares out at Reform, no love lost between them.
Once all parties are settled in, Dex wants Reform… but he walks over and tags into Angel Trinidad instead. Angel looks a little surprised, but Ned won’t start so Angel walks in instead. Team HOSS were once big rivals of Dex in his earlier DEFIANCE career so the two know each other well. That’s why they skip pleasantries and get right to exchanging blows in the ring! The giant and the big man continue scrapping until Dex gets the upper hand and pushes Angel into the corner. He slugs him with elbow smashes and right hands, then tags in Tate. The Young Bull climb into the ring and hits a running shoulder thrust right to the large midsection of Angel!
Newell continues throwing jabs and headbutts to Angel and tries to go for a move off the ropes, but instead, Angel catches him and SPIKES The Young Bull into the ground with the Michinoku Driver! Even Ned Reform and TA Cole both wince from the impact! Dex is concerned for the well-being of his partner when Trinidad goes for a cover…
ONE!
TWO!
NO!
Tate is picked up and now The Good Doctor wants the tag (of course, he does). He holds the legs and delivers a kick right to the gut of Newell, then follows that up with a twisting neckbreaker on Young Bull. He goes up top and drops the Scholar and Elbow right into his heart! The diving elbow drop connects and he hooks the leg!
ONE!
TWO!
DEX BREAKS IT UP!
Dex claps and cheers for Newell as Ned tags Trinidad in to finish the job. Trinidad goes for the Trampled Underfoot bicycle kick, but Newell moves and he hits the ropes, leaving him open for Newell to hit a release German suplex on the big man! Newell tags in…
TAG TO DEX JOY!
The Biggest Boy heads up top and drops the Jump For Joy diving headbutt on top of Angel Trinidad! Ned Reform tries to cut him off, but Dex rocks him with a jumping enzuigiri to the side of the head! TA Cole tries climbing up on the ring apron, but Dex knocks him off with a bicycle kick! All three men are down on the outside of the ring and Dex points at the collective…
WHOA-PE CON HILO!
The Faithful are on their feet cheering and hollering as Reform, Cole and Trinidad all get wiped out with Dex Joy’s rare Whoa-pe Con Hilo dive over the top rope! Dex gets big Trinidad in the ring again and then tags to Newell, who wants back in! Newell charges and hits The Horns on Trinidad!
ONE!
TWO!
…COLE GETS HIS FOOT ON THE ROPES!
Dex charges after the right-hand man of The SOHER at the last second, but as Newell goes for a second one…
EQUIVOCATOR!
Ned cuts it off first with a running headbutt! Dex comes in and takes he and The Good Doctor out of the ring with a cactus clothesline but Angel has the chance to end it!
HELLEVATOR!
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
♫ “Fur Elise” by Cole Rolland ♫
WINNERS: TEAM DISCOVERY CHANNEL @ 11:05 (Hellevator, Trinidad pins Newell)
Lance:
Once again! Numbers make all the difference where Ned Reform is concerned! Ned Reform and Angel Trinidad steal this match and as a result, they make it to the finals and complete our three teams competing for the big prize tonight!
DDK:
That was one of the most action-packed matches we’ve seen all night and The Biggest Best Bulls had this won, had it not been for TA Cole! Regardless… the referee’s decision is final!
Lance:
But before we head on over to the Tag Party Finals, we’re going to take things back to the hosts of tonight’s show to recap what we have seen, not to mention introduce some big-time players in attendance who will be on hand to reward the winners with the Tag Party trophies and the $100,000 check from Favoured Saints!
DDK:
That’s right, let’s get on back to our hosts, Butcher Victorious and SuperDEFFan64!
PARDON THE INTERRUPTION
Following the conclusion of the Block C match recap by Darren Keebler and Lance Warner, the camera cuts back one last time to the interview stage by Tag Party VI Masters of Ceremonies, Butcher Victorious and SuperDEFFan64.
Butcher Victorious:
LADIES! GENTLEMEN! YOUR FINALS IS NOW SET FOR TAG PARTY SIX!
The camera cuts to the DEFIATron.
TAG PARTY VI FINALS
SEATTLE’S BEST (BLOCK A WINNERS)
Vs.
TRIPLE SEVENS (BLOCK B WINNERS)
Vs.
TEAM DISCOVERY CHANNEL (BLOCK C WINNERS)
Back to the interview stage.
Butcher Victorious:
What a LOADED match that’s gonna be! Seattle’s Best! Team Discovery Channel! Triple Sevens! Who’s gonna take this one?!
SuperDEFFan64:
I don’t know! Seattle’s Best are teaming again like they never stopped doing it and it’s showed in their work tonight! Max Luck and Rowzilla, the seven-foot PLUS ass-kickers have been doing just that all the way to the finals! And OUR Southern Heritage Champion, DOCTOR Ned Reform…
Butcher Victorious: [making air quotes]
Nah, you mean “Doctor”.
SuperDEFFan64:
Not touching that one.
Butcher Victorious:
Hey, a lot of people don’t like him, but he and Angel Trinidad have made it to the finals! Angel’s tag team experience and power, along with Ned Reform’s brains, that’s gonna be hard for ANYONE to overcome!
SuperDEFFan64:
Understatement! But the generational giants, man! Triple Sevens! Max Luck one half of one of DEFIANCE’s most successful and dangerous tag teams! I can’t pick a winner! Any three of these teams can take it!
Butcher Victorious:
Oh, they really could, man. They really could. And we're about to find out what team is gonna take it!
He turns to face The Faithful.
Butcher Victorious:
Well, NEW ORLEANS…
RRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAH!
Butcher Victorious:
SuperDEFFan64 and I have had a lot of fun tonight hosting the show, but we’re gonna be sitting ringside with you guys so we can catch the finals. We’ve got at ringside… waiting to present those trophies and that $1000,000 novelty check! Favoured Saints CEO David Danielson…
A polite round of applause as he sits ringside.
SuperDEFFan64:
And we also have fellow BIG MAN LIKE ME… THE BIG GUY in BRAZEN! BRAZEN Matchmaker CAPITAL PUNISHMENT!
The legendary former third member of Team HOSS, IWO Hall of Famer and gruff big man, Capital Punishment stands up and gets cheers from The Faithful as well.
Butcher Victorious:
All right, guys. Let’s turn it ov… AGH!
OUT OF NOWHERE, BUTCHER GETS SPINEBUSTERED ON THE STAGE!
DDK:
HEY! WHAT THE…
Lance:
DARREN! DARREN! LOOK!
The attacker stands over Butcher as SuperDEFFan64 jumps back…
TITANESS!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Clad in black leather pants, gold boots and a gold tank top, The Pretty Powerful stands over Butcher. After taking a moment to bask in the jeers, she attacks Butcher again and jumps all over The Microphone Fiend with right hands!
Lance:
What the hell is the meaning of this?!
DDK:
I dunno… wait! UNCUT! Remember… Titaness tried to attack a BRAZEN star, George Othello and it was Butcher Victorious who made the save! Is this retaliation for getting involved?
She continues the attack on Butcher until SuperDEFFan64 grabs her by the arm and spins her around! She turns and looks directly at the BRAZEN recapper with a gaze that could kill!
Lance:
Ooooohhhhh no. What did SuperDEFFan64 just do?
DDK:
Don't do this!
Realizing his folly, the DEFIANCE superfan (it’s in the name, after all) looks up at Titaness. He tries to back off…
THEN CATCHES A PUMP KICK TO THE FACE!
DDK:
HEY! HE’S NOT A WRESTLER, HE’S A DEFIANCE EMPLOYEE! THERE’S GONNA BE A FINE IN TITANESS’ FUTURE FOR THAT! MAYBE WORSE!
The Pretty Powerful Matriarch of Titanes Familia turns to see Butcher trying to get back to his feet again. He holds his rib cage, caught off-guard and still reeling from the first spear…
PRETTY STRIKING!
...when the second running spear nearly cuts him in half!
BOOOOOOOOOOO!
DDK:
Enough of this! Enough! There’s no need for this!
CEO David Danielson reacts and points at someone to get DEFSec out here! Within moments, Titaness sees them coming and holds her hands up, backing off from the attack and letting the Wyatt Bronson and the security force do their job. With a smile on her face, The Bringer of Big Boots backs off, but not before the camera catches her words.
Titaness:
BUTCH VIC WITH THE STICK? YOU GOT HUMBLED BY YOUR HIGHNESS… TITANESS!
DDK:
We saw how ruthless Uriel Cortez was when he defeated Scott Douglas back at Acts of DEFIANCE! Has it spread to the rest of Titanes Familia?!
Being showered in boos, the wife of Uriel Cortez is escorted off the stage while cackling, leaving security and now medical staff to come out to check on the Masters of Ceremonies.
Lance:
Way to ruin the festivities! And attacking SuperDEFFan64… like him or not, this is a member of DEFIANCE staff! As much of a fan he can be, he’s not an active competitor.
DDK:
Folks… we’re being told we’re gonna take a quick break to get this sorted out and get some order restored… but when we come back, we’ve got the Tag Party VI Finals. We’ll be back shortly.
David Danielson and Capital Punishment both look soured from the interruption with medical now attending to Butcher and the laid-out SuperDEFFan64.
BREAK.
TAG PARTY VI FINALS
The camera cuts back to the Commentation Station after an ad break.
DDK:
Welcome back, folks. We’re just about to introduce the competitors for the Tag Party VI Finals match, but before that, we have to talk about what we just saw. Titaness attacked both of our Tag Party VI hosts, Butcher Victorious and SuperDEFFan64, completely unprovoked!
Lance:
We’ve been told during our quick ad break that Titaness has been escorted out of the building. There’s already talk of a big fine being lobbied her way. We’ll keep you updated on that news as soon as it becomes available on how management are going to handle this.
DDK:
Butcher Victorious and SuperDEFFan64 are both being checked out by our medical staff. That spinebuster from Titaness on the stage looked particularly brutal and SuperDEFFan64… he’s not even a wrestler! He didn’t deserve that.
Lance:
Not at all.
DDK:
But like I said… we’ll update you on all that after the show. Right now, we’ve reached the end. Seattle’s Best - DEFIANCE legend “Sub Pop” Scott Douglas and the always-tough “The Emerald Apex” Kerry Kuroyama won the A Block. Triple Sevens - Max Luck and BRAZEN’s largest man, Rowzilla won the B Block. The combined cunning of Team Discovery Channel - Southern Heritage Champion Ned Reform and BRAZEN bruiser Angel Trinidad, won the C Block.
Lance:
It’s come down to three and we have Darren Quimbey to introduce the final teams. Can Douglas and Kuroyama claim this big prize as the first-ever all-DEFIANCE team to win Tag Party? Can Max Luck add to a decorated tag team resume with Rowzilla garnering his first career accomplishment? Or will The Southern Heritage Champion Ned Reform and Angel Trinidad add to their own overall career accomplishments?
The camera cuts to Favoured Saints CEO David Danielson and BRAZEN Matchmaker Capital Punishment standing by at ringside next to the $100,000 novelty check from Favoured Saints and the custom Tag Party trophies going to the winners.
Darren Quimbey:
The following contest is your main event of the evening and is a Three-way Tag Team Elimination Match! The winner will be presented with a check for $100,000 from Favoured Saints as well as the honorary Tag Party Trophies! Introducing first…
♫ “Together We’ll Never” by Green River ♫
For the third time tonight, the team of Seattle’s Best plays for The Faithful with “Sub Pop” Scott Doulgas and “The Emerald Apex” Kerry Kuroyama standing at the ready! They head to the ring all business tonight with the first of three spots to the Tag Party VI finals on the line!
Darren Quimbey:
Introducing first, at a combined weight of 466 pounds… they are your A Block winners… the team of ”THE EMERALD APEX” KERRY KUROYAMA… “SUB POP” SCOTT DOUGLAS… SEATTLE’S BEST!
They arrive in the ring to cheers as they wait on their opponents…

A big ovation erupts for the largest men in Tag Party history! Max Luck flashes The Winning Hand and Rowzilla pose on the ramp!
Darren Quimbey:
Introducing team number two, at a combined weight of 658 pounds… they are your B Block winners…the team of ”THE BEAST OF THE BRIGHT LIGHTS” MAX LUCK”... “THE THIRD GENERATION GIANT” ROWZILLA… TRIPLE SEVENS!
Max Luck and Rowzilla both raise their respecting Winning Hand and three-finger gestures up! Scott Douglas and Kerry can’t believe the size of the giants up close. Max Luck and Rowzilla talk strategy in their corner.
♫ “Fur Elise” by Cole Rolland ♫
Having the least break time between matches but still looking pretty confident, the trio of Southern Heritage Champion DOCTOR Ned Reform, TA Cole raising up the Southern Heritage Title belt at all times, and Angel Trinidad behind them. The music thunders over the PA as they walk down the ramp.
Darren Quimbey:
And introducing team number three, accompanied by TA Cole… at a combined weight of 533 pounds… they are your C Block Winners… they are the team of ANGEL TRINIDAD AND THE SOUTHERN HERITAGE CHAMPION NED REFORM… TEAM DISCOVERY CHANNEL!
The name brings disgust to The Good Doctor’s face, but brushes it off knowing that he has a chance to potentially avenge a major loss to Scott Douglas. This being the first time the two men have shared a ring since DEFCON when Ned Reform practically trash-talked Douglas out of retirement. Max Luck and Rowzilla have no prior history with any of the competitors in ring, but don’t look past them at all as they each get ready.
DDK:
The rules are simple here. Two men in the ring at any time legally. Anyone can tag anyone, but this match will keep going until we have one team left.
Scott Douglas stands in the ring across from Ned Reform, who does want his payback and wants in first. Max Luck and Rowzilla sit this one out as the bell rings….
DING DING
Ned turns around and goes right for the tag to Angel like he did earlier in the night… but Scott grabs him by his singlet and pulls him right into a punch! That punch becomes a flurry of punches on the ground to the delight of all in attendance! Luck and Rowzilla sit back and watch the show as Douglas continues striking away at Ned! Ned pushes him away and tries to escape to the floor but catches a baseball slide through the ropes by Douglas, then gets thrown into the stairs!
Scott back in and Angel is forced to watch Douglas tag Kerry! The two men elbow the face right off The Good Doctor with an extra-forceful roaring elbow that smacks the spit out of Reform’s mouth! He goes rolling across the ring! Kerry hits a huge exploder suplex out of the corner for a two-count. He pulls Ned up for another suplex, but Ned grabs him by the tights and whips Kerry face-first into the turnbuckle! Ned headlocks Kerry and brings him to his corner for Angel Trinidad to make the tag. Trinidad climbs in the ring and Kerry gets rattled with a massive spinebuster by Angel, only to get a two-count!
Angel picks Kerry up, but Kerry fights back with stiff chops to the big man. He heads to the ropes, but Max Luck tags himself in! Kerry returns to his corner and the two giants face off before they start trading punches with one another across from each other! Angel and Max fight it out to big cheers from big HOSSFITE fans in attendance! Angel gets the better with an uppercut then hits the ropes for a running HOSS-body…
MAX CATCHES HIM…
FALLAWAY SLAM TO TRINIDAD!
Rowzilla tags and the giants both take turns chopping Trinidad’s chest off in the corner! Rowzilla then hits a HUGE biel on the 6’10” Trinidad that amazes the crowd! Max tags in again and goes after Trinidad, not aware that Ned has a blind tag. Max grabs the arm of Angel and walks the ropes for Walking the Strip before coming off with a big blow to the back of Angel’s head… but Ned lies in wait and hits a chop block on the seven-footer! Max goes down to his knees near the the middle rope, allowing Ned Reform to stand on his back and choke him on the middle rope, all the while Ned is booed out of the building for proclaiming his genius!
He waits for the chance to use the Equivocator running headbutt, but when he runs at Max, the Beast of the Bright Lights launches Ned up into said lights with a back body drop to big applause! Max hobbles up and looks for a Winning Hand, but…
TAG FROM SCOTT DOUGLAS!
Douglas tags in past Max and knocks down Ned with a number of forearm smashes, knocking him down each time that he gets up! When he tries to get up a third time, he ducks a clothesline from The Good Doctor and takes him up and over with an overhead belly to belly suplex! Douglas back to his feet! He charges at Ned in with a corner forearm smash, then hits a cobra clutch bulldog! He goes for the cover!
ONE!
TWO!
NO!
Reform kicks out to the chagrin of the NOLA Faithful! Douglas goes up for a top rope moonsault…
KNEES UP BY NED!
INSIDE CRADLE!
ONE!
TWO!
THR… NO!
Ned argues with the official but that frees up Kerry Kuroyama getting the tag! He launches after The Good Doctor with a big right and tries to whip him, but Ned reverses the whip and kicks him in the gut! The Mad Gadfly tries to fly with a springboard back elbow… but Kerry walks out of the way first to big applause! He hits Ned with the Black Mountain Bomb! After the double underhook backbreaker connects, the cover follows!
ONE!
TWO!
ANGEL PULLS KERRY’S LEG!
Angel comes in, but Scott Douglas comes to the aid of Kerry. Angel tries to take them out, but Scott pulls the ropes down and Angel gets sent to the floor! Ned ges up and pushes Kerry to the floor and the fight ends up with Kerry trying to fight off Angel and Ned. Max gets involved and goes after Trinidad, along with Rowzilla! As they fight, Scott tries to go out to the floor, but Ned cuts him off! Scott fights back and goes for a superplex with everyone fighting on the floor…
TOP ROPE SUPERPLEX ONTO EVERYONE ON THE FLOOR!
Not a single person is standing right now in attendance as the pile is massive! Bodies are strewn everywhere at ringside! Replays flash in several different spots!
Ned and Kerry are still the legal men as Benny Doyle counts…
ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR! FIVE! SIX!
Ned is up, so is Kerry!
SEVEN! EIGHT!
They’re neck and neck!
NINE!
Ned is in! But when Kerry tries to get inside, TA Cole grabs his leg! Kerry kicks him away, but…
TEN!
Quimbey:
SEATTLE’S BEST HAVE BEEN ELIMINATED BY COUNTOUT!
BOOOOOOOOOOOO!
The booing is massive, but Ned Reform grins and taps his skull again!
DDK:
WE’RE DOWN TO TWO! IT’S EITHER TRIPLE SEVENS OR TEAM DISCOVERY CHANNEL!
Ned waves goodbye to Scott Douglas and Kerry Kuroyama, who look disappointed with this turn of events!
Max Luck ends up in the ring to go after Ned, but Angel Trinidad grabs Max by the neck and pulls him down with a hangman! He falls to his knees, allowing The SOHER makes Max famous with a big leg drop bulldog as he’s still on his knees! Ned tries to steal the win!
ONE!
TWO!
NO!
Ned tags Trinidad and the Team HOSS member and one-time rival of the Lucky Sevens nails the Flying HOSS Body this time…
ONE!
TWO!
THRE…NO!
Angel angrily screams at Benny Doyle for what he thinks was a three-count! Rowzilla is back in his corner and wants the tag, but he’s not far enough to tag! Ned doesn’t want the 7’3” monster in the ring at all while TA Cole yells at Angel to tag. Angel doesn’t want to and thinks he can finish Max off, but Max applies the Winning Hand first! He claws his way back to his feet…
TAG TO ROWZILLA!
The big rookie sensation gets a big cheer when he runs in and plows right through Angel Trinidad with a huge splash! He’s whipped to the other side and hit with a big splash! When pulled out of the corner, Rowzilla grabs Angel and spins him around several times before he drops him down on the mat with a big swinging sidewalk slam!
The 6’10” Angel is being made to look like a child by the 7’3” Rowzilla! He runs a foot on the mat and charges the ropes before EXPLODING with a One-Man Stampede shoulder block! He makes the cover!
ONE!

SCHOLAR AND ELBOW BY NED REFORM TO THE BACK OF THE HEAD!

Ned has the title in hand while Doyle is distracted and swings… but Max grabs Ned with the Winning Hand! He shakes and then gets pushes out of the ring!
Angel fights off Rowzilla as both men get up and scores with a headbutt! He runs off the ropes signaling for another Trampled Underfoot bicycle kick…

Darren Quimbey:
YOUR WINNERS OF THE MATCH… AND TAG PARTY VI WINNERS…
Pause.
Darren Quimbey:
THE TRIPLE SEVENS!
Max grabs Rowzilla’s hand and the two giants stand in the ring to HUGE applause from The Faithful! An angered Ned Reform collects his title, snarls in the direction of Trinidad and leaves, with a hurt TA Cole following him out. As they leave, Mason and Lonnie Luck come out from backstage towards the ring to celebrate with Max Luck and Rowzilla!
DDK:
WHAT A CHAOTIC FINALE WE JUST SAW! NED REFORM CHEATED SEATTLE’S BEST VIA COUNTOUT WITH HELP FROM TA COLE, BUT WHEN HE TRIED TO DO THE SAME, SEATTLE’S BEST STUCK IT TO TA COLE, CLEARING THE PATH FOR MAX LUCK AND ROWZILLA TO TAKE THIS YEAR’S PRIZE!
Lance:
That was WILD! The Superplex that wiped everyone out! Seattle’s Best showing tonight they still have something left in the tank as a collective if they choose to do so! But in the end, Max Luck adds to the tag team legacy of The Lucky Sevens while giving the newcomer Rowzilla his first taste of major glory!
Confetti falls from the rafters in red and green as CEO David Danielson and BRAZEN Matchmaker Capital Punishment reward the giants with the honorary Tag Party VI trophies, along with the $100,000 cash prize! Max and Mason bro-hug it out, then the Sevens raise one another’s hands. As Rowzilla raises his hand, he takes Lonnie all the way up with him off the ground!
Lance:
The LARGEST team in Tag Party history takes the trophies and cash this year after a HARD-FOUGHT evening!
DDK:
What an incredible finale that was! This concludes the sixth installment of Tag Party VI! For Lance Warner, I’m “Downtown” Darren Keebler! We will see you next week for DEFtv!
The final parting shot is of Max Luck and Rowzilla holding the checks and trophies, all arms raised! (and still, Lonnie Luck hovering off the arm of Rowzilla.)
THIS.
IS.
DEFIANCE.
