Bad Blood Contained in a Cage

Estrella said that Winter has done nothing but torment her from the day they met. Estrella said she needs to move on, and will be relieved to finally get her hands on Winter, alone, in the steel cage.
Vega backed up Estrella, promising to be ringside to watch her send Winter out of MoW forever. Estrella put her hand on Vega’s shoulder and told Winter to have a new job lined up because Final Round will truly be Winter’s final appearance in MoW.
Show Yourself
Jax Rivers came to the ring to call out Dr. Insidious, who had been tormenting him for weeks. Rivers waited and when it seemed Dr. Insidious would not show, the lights went off.

Kami King vs. Paisley Alden

A Clear Picture
MoW Champion Cate Stiles made her way to the ring to address the audience. Stiles remarked how much drama that has been around her MoW Championship and she hadn’t even been around. Stiles said that the dust settled and things look different. Maria Estrella was out and Shannon Worth was in.
Stiles said her Final Round opponent was different, but the outcome would be the same. Stiles admitted she has never been shy about telling the world she is the best wrestler on the planet and will hold the MoW Championship into 2022 and beyond.
The Diamond Peak interrupted the champion. Claudia Winter spoke for Shannon Worth while Preston Montgomery and Pierre Laurent stood behind Worth like bodyguards. Winter said that Stiles deserved to be called the best wrestler on the planet, but added that it should be in the past tense. Winter warned Stiles that her time as the top star in the wrestling world was about to end and heralded the coming of the Shannon Worth era.
Stiles sized up Worth and said that she hoped Worth knew what she was getting into. Worth looked ready to fight, and Stiles encouraged her to try, but Winter stopped Worth and told her not to fall for it. Winter told Stiles to take care of the belt around her waist because she will have to hand it over at Final Round.
MoW Championship Match
Mark Blood vs. Cole Arcane (c)
The main event was a grudge match with the big prize on the line. Cole Arcane defended the MoW Championship, and his reputation, against his tormented, Mark Blood.
Blood tried to get into Arcane’s head early in the match but was rocked by a sudden and violent assault by Arcane. Blood tried to stop the assault but Arcane was relentless.
Arcane used a piledriver on Blood, and then a second. Arcane stood over Blood and then started punching him in the face. Blood, incapacitated from the piledrivers, tried in vain to block the strikes.
Arcane was fired up and walked around the ring screaming. Blood began to get to his feet but was dropped by a running boot to the side of the head. The referee stopped Arcane from going any further while he checked on Blood’s condition. Blood waved off the referee and stood on wobbling legs.
Arcane ran at Blood for a clothesline but Blood ducked, pulled Arcane’s legs out from under him and used a reverse boston crab on the champion. Arcane was able to escape but Blood recovered from his earlier beating and started to keep the champion grounded with submissions.
Blood taunted Arcane, telling him he was lying to everyone and was still the same street thug he was in his childhood. Arcane got more frustrated trying to escape while Blood held him down tighter. Blood had Arcane in a sleeper hold that almost worked, but Arcane was able to get a hand on the bottom ring rope to break the submission.
Blood hovered over Arcane, taunting him to get up. Arcane got to his feet but Blood scooped him up and used a tombstone piledriver. Blood covered Arcane but the champion dug deep and kicked out. Blood was shocked. Arcane looked up at Blood and threw him a middle finger. Blood smiled, but then his lip quivered with anger. Blood scooped up Arcane again and used another tombstone piledriver. Blood went for another pin but Arcane once again kicked out.
Blood went for a third tombstone piledriver but Arcane was able to reverse that one, delivering one of his own. Arcane rallied for a comeback and prepared Blood for a running bulldog. Blood slipped free, kicked Arcane in the gut, and picked him up for a third, and final tombstone piledriver. Blood covered Arcane, the referee counted to three, and Mark Blood became the new MoW Champion.
Mark Blood celebrated his win with the MoW Championship held high over his head. Cole Arcane was unresponsive as Blood nudged him to the side of the ring apron with his boot.
Blood looked proud as he stood in the center of the ring with the belt over his shoulder. His music was cut off by Tornado’s music and Tornado, the number one contender for the MoW Championship came down to the ring. Tornado confronted Blood, sharing some inaudible words with the new champion. After a tense staredown, Tornado left the ring. Mark Blood watched him with a cold stare.
