Universal Cross Wrestling (Year 1, Month 1)

In a distant time and a distant place, a deal is struck out between that of the WWE, the realm of Newgrounds, and the Eorzean Alliance to conjure up a one-night wrestling event featuring some of the most iconic and well-known names from all three respective brands. Though it runs under the branding of a normal Survivor Series pay-per-view, it is pitched as a 3-way dance between WWE, Newgrounds, and Final Fantasy XIV live from Madison Square Garden in New York City. What comes of this night? Only time will tell…

WWE Vs. Newgrounds Vs. FFXIV

Survivor Series

To open the show with a rather David Vs. Goliath-esque match-up, Tricky the Clown is set to face G'raha Tia in a normal one on one contest. The match lasts for around 10 minutes, and despite Graha's best efforts to keep up with the mad clown, Tricky defeats the Miqo'te in a convincing fashion to net Newgrounds their first point of the pay-per-view.

The second contest of the night is an intergender tag-team match that pits Boyfriend and Girlfriend against Montez Ford and Bianca Belair. Though both teams show much promise within the ring--courtesy of all four's shared high-flying prowess--Montez and Bianca come out on top to earn the WWE their first point of hopefully many.

In the third match of the night, Ardbert, representing Final Fantasy XIV, faces off against a returning Daniel Bryan who represents the WWE in a close-quarters brawl full of stiff strikes and excellent mat wrestling. The match concludes with Ardbert using his strength to overpower Bryan and pick up the win by pinfall, scoring FFXIV their first point.

The pay-per-view's fourth match sees one of WWE's best tag teams take on Newgrounds's most recognizable duo; Kyle O'Reilly and Bobby Fish of reDRagon versus Sanford and Deimos of Madness Combat. In this match, the clashing styles of high-octane, mat-based wrestling of the Undisputed Era and the aggressive, heavy hitting fighting style of Sanford and Deimos go hand in hand in a 15-minute long classic which sees the Nevadan locals come out on top against reDRagon.

The fifth match of the night is the pinnacle of hoss wrestling with Raubahn Aldynn going against Brock Lesnar in a no holds barred match. The two are caught fighting before the match even begins, and from then on it escalates into a state of violence more fit for an octagon than a ring. By the sliver of a chance that his own will will allow him to keep pushing onward, Raubahn defeats Brock Lesnar in the closest match of the night and with his hand held high.

The flagship match of the show comes underway as Team WWE (Roman Reigns, Drew McIntyre, Finn Balor) Team FFXIV (Thancred, Y'shtola, Papalymo) and Team Newgrounds (Pico, Nene, Darnell) all face off in a 3V3V3 Traditional Survivor Series match that pits all three brands against each other for the first time that night. Elimination after elimination is doled out between teams until it comes down to Finn Balor and Nene in the climax of the 30 minute war, ending with Balor picking up the victory for Team WWE and being the sole survivor of the entire match.

As the WWE, Newgrounds and FFXIV brands are all tied for 2 points each, the main event of the night comes as John Cena, Hank J. Wimbleton, and the Warrior of Light all clash in a triple threat match to determine which brand will reign supreme at night's end. A match that lasts for upwards to a half hour, not any of the three men have what it takes to put each other away for the victory.

That is, until a blindsiding superkick knocks Cena off balance enough to give Hank the opportunity to pick up the win, securing Newgrounds as the victors of the night and prompting a celebration. That superkick that gifted Hank and the rest of Newgrounds that victory, however, was not the result of the Warrior of Light or by Hank himself, but from an outside party with an agenda of their own;

a blue haired, brown cloaked girl who is soon revealed to be Sky.

Final Score:

WWE: 2

NG: 3

FFXIV: 2

------------------------------

With the success of Survivor Series prompting demand for even more action from the three brands, a joint company is created between them known as Universal Cross Wrestling (UCW) to give its newly acquitted fans just that. With Triple H and William Regal at the helm as the brands General Managers, UCW kicks itself into high gear with its first month of programming taking place in Canada. Hank is crowned as the flagship star of UCW and is given the UCW World Heavyweight Championship to commemorate that; soon being told that a challenger for his title will be decided in the coming weeks.

This challenger will be fished from a set of 2 fatal-4 way matches, each of which will consist of the following superstars: Daniel Bryan, G'raha Tia, Finn Balor, and John Cena in the first match, alongside Nene, Ardbert, Tricky, and Raubahn in the second match. The winners of both of those fatal-4 ways will meet in a one-on-one contest, and the winner of that match will face Hank for the UCW Championship at UCW'S first official pay-per-view, Starrcade.

As a requisite reward for their victories at Survivor Series, Montez Ford and his fellow street profit tag team partner Angelo Dawkins are pitted against Sanford and Deimos to crown UCW's first ever Tag Team Champions. In a brutal and fast-paced clinic of a match, Wasteland Blood pick up the victory and secure the Tag Team titles for themselves, but not without shaking the hands of the Street Profits and showing them their due respect.

Bianca Belair and Girlfriend face each other one-on-one to crown UCW's first Women's Champion, and in a 20 minute clash full of emotion and hardship, Bianca is able to take home the gold and cement herself as champion.

The first of the two announced Fatal-4 ways takes place as Daniel Bryan, G'raha Tia, Finn Balor, and John Cena all square off against each other for the opportunity of a lifetime at the very beginning of UCW's life. In this nearly 40 minute slugfest of a match, Finn Balor is the one who's able to pick up the victory and awaits his opponent in the coming weeks.

------ Mid-Month Break ------

During an interview with Ardbert of the Warriors of Darkness, he claims that his victory against Daniel Bryan at Survivor Series was only the beginning of his path to glory, and promises to represent both the First and his friends on his quest to reach the top of UCW and become World Heavyweight Champion. During this interview however, he is confronted by Roman Reigns, who doesn't even give him the time of day with words and only stares daggers into the eyes of the axe-wielding hero.

William Regal is given the opportunity as General Manager to select two superstars for a match to crown UCW's first ever Openweight Champion. With longevity and spectacle being his main priority for such an occasion, he calls upon the likes of Karrion Kross and Sami Zayn to battle for the belt.

This results in a 15 minute David Vs. Goliath contest with a hopeful Sami coming up short against the monstrous Kross, crowing the new champion and inserting him into the titles caveat; once every week, Karrion Kross must defend the Openweight Championship in an open challenge to the entire roster. There are no limitations to who can challenge for or hold the belt no matter who they are, and Kross plans to run a warpath through UCW no matter who decides to step to him.

Finn Balor's opponent for the final show before Starrcade is decided as Nene, Ardbert, Tricky, and Raubahn all face off for the opportunity of a lifetime in one of the month's many main events. Despite a very divisive mixture of styles in terms of wrestling and fighting prowess, a 20 minute classic comes out of this fatal-4 way as Nene is able to pick up the victory and secure her match against Finn Balor. As she celebrates however, Sky emerges from the rafters above and gives the knife-crazy contender an unnoticed glare. Roman Reigns can also be seen sitting in the crowd during the match, studying Ardbert with a disappointed expression.

On the go-home show before Starrcade, the entire UCW roster is called to the ring as both GM's appoint them to a bright, prosperous future for the promotion. With two championships still undecided, however--that of the Undisputed and Submission titles--Triple H makes the decision to call upon those who he feels would be the best fit to face off for those prestigious prizes. For the Undisputed Championship, he chooses AJ Styles and Kevin Owens.

For the Submission Championship, he chooses Pete Dunne and Cesaro. Regal announces after his choices are made that the first match of a Tag Team Championship tournament will be held at Starrcade, pitting that of Johnny Gargano and Austin Theory of The Way up against Wes Lee and Nash Carter of MSK to end the segment.

Roman Reigns is scheduled to have a match against Dolph Ziggler later in the show, but is stopped by Ardbert who questions him on his intentions as per the stare he gave him during Ardbert's interview and fatal-4 way match. Roman explains that, per his own experience, he knows a leader when he sees one, and claims that someone like Ardbert who has to rely on other people to carry his baggage and can't get the job done when it counts isn't fit for the role of a leader.

Ardbert takes this claim as fighting words, and denounces Roman's point with a mentioning of the Shield falling apart and his lack of caring for his "brother" Dean Ambrose when he needed him the most. Now, with both men offended at the other's prospect, a match is made between them by Triple H at Starrcade; a No Holds Barred match.

Bianca Belair hosts an open challenge to anyone who wants to come for her Women's Championship; claiming that there is no one in UCW brave enough to take on someone of her youth and caliber after the show she put on against Girlfriend. After a moment, however, Y'shtola accepts her challenge and states that she's brave enough because she knows she'll take the title off of Bianca--the both of them agreeing to save the matchup for Starrcade with Regal's approval.

In the main event of the go home show before Starrcade, Finn Balor and Nene clash in a one-on-one competition for the ages in which both combatants give their all just like they did at Survivor Series. Despite the 20 minute classic pushing them both to their very limits, Nene is able to overcome the prince with two critical superkicks and safely secure her match against Hank at Starrcade.

The champion and challenger then meet in the ring after the match, trading words ahead of the big day. It is then announced by Triple H after they meet that their match at Starrcade will be a 2 out of 3 falls match.

TOP 10 OTHER MEDIA FANDOMS ON AO3 BASED ON NUMBER OF FANWORKS,SINGLE CATEGORY TAG ONLY VERSION (2009-2022)

If you want to see the Other Media bar chart with the muti-category fandoms included, please check this post.

To make these bar chart race, all series titles in the Other Media Category on November 29 (or the closest date to it) of every year were copy-pasted from Wayback Machine to Google Sheets, rearranged according to number of fanworks, manually filtered for fandoms belonging in only one category, and then inputted to Flourish to turn into a bar chart race.

Locked fanworks aren't included in the count because Wayback Machine can’t view those, only Ao3 users can.

In 2009, Computers & Software (Anthropomorphic), Nebulous (Radio Show), LOLcasts and Planescape (Roleplaying Game) are also tied with 1 fanwork at last place.

Fandom tags that are no longer in the Other Media category tag as of posting this are left out of the bar chart race. These tags are usually either miscategorized or already have other tags referring to the same fandom.

Please refer to this post for more bar chart races.

Thanks for understanding and hopefully I didn’t mess up anywhere! 🙏

Edit: If you don't see a fandom on the chart, it may be because that fandom only has a multicategory tag and no Other Media category only tag. (E.g. Homestuck)

You're still champion of my heart baby <3

Summary: Tyler faces his toughest fight yet against Chris Jericho with PLE implications. Luckily for him, Tyler's girlfriend isn't above getting her hands dirty in order to help her man win.

You finish up your match against Emi Sakura, managing to earn a quick win against the Japanese legend. After celebrating in with a few fans on your way up the ramp, you head back to the locker room to see if Tyler's left yet.

"Ty? You in here?" You announce yourself as you come through the locker room door.

"Yeah." Tyler replies dryly from somewhere inside the locker room. "You beat, Emi?" He asks you as you shut the door behind you.

You snort and nod. "Course I did, look at who you're talking to." You laugh.

"Right." Tyler laughs with you.

You clean up some excess sweat from your body and throw on a shirt over your ring gear while Tyler idles on his phone like usual.

"Shouldn't you be headed out to the ring to talk with Jericho's annoying ass?" You ask Tyler after you're done changing.

"Yeah, unfortunately." Tyler nods. "I can't believe that he went and whined to my dad." He grumbles.

You snort and agree. "Look at who you're talking about, Ty." You remind him. "Jericho is a total snake. And he's ugly so,"

"You did warn me." Tyler nods. "I'm headed out. Wanna walk with me?" He asks you.

"Sure." You shrug and head over to the door.

Tyler pulls open the door for you and the two of you head down to the tunnel. You stop right at the tunnel entrance and watch Tyler head through it. You hang back since you know that he doesn't need you for this. Not with a shmuck like Chris Jericho.

You hang around backstage and watch the confrontation in the ring from the monitors set up in various places. You roll your eyes at Chris' arrogance, silently praying that Tyler just decks him.

"Oh what the fuck!?" You curse the air when Jericho decides to take a shot at Taz.

Tyler handles the situation, getting into Chris's face. But your worry for Taz gets the better of you. You head down to the ring from the back way so you don't take the spotlight away from Tyler.

"Taz!" You rush over to his side as he carefully rolls out of the ring. "Are you alright?" You help him down to the floor.

"Yeah, I'm alright, kid." Taz assures you, but you notice that his knee is obviously bothering him.

You set a cautious and gentle hand on Taz's shoulder and walk with him back over to the commentary table. Tyler takes a second to glance your way and you flash him a quick thumbs up. Ty nods at your assuring gesture and goes right back to getting in Jericho's face.

"You sure that you're okay, Taz?" You ask Taz again once he's at down.

"I'm good." Taz nods. "Come on, give me some credit, kid. I ain't quite that old yet." He chuckles. "But I appreciate the concern."

You nod and slink back around the tunnel to the backstage area to wait for Tyler to come back.

A few minutes later Tyler comes stomping through the tunnel with a foul air about him. You walk over to him and try your best to tame the beast before he thinks about doing something drastic.

"Tyler! Hey!" You rush over to Tyler's side.

"Is my dad alright?" Tyler asks you, venom in his tone.

You nod and put a hand on Tyler's arm. "Yeah, he said that he was okay." You assure him. "Come on, let's head back to the locker room and get our stuff so we can get out of here." You give his arm a small tug away from the tunnel since Chris is still out in the ring.

"Thanks for going out there and checking on him, YN." Tyler relaxes a little bit.

"Yeah, of course." You nod and begin pulling him along. "And hey, you'll get another shot at kicking Jericho's ass, okay? In the ring. Properly." You glance his way while you're walking with him.

Tyler's jaw clenches in frustration. "He's lucky that I didn't lay him out right then and there." He insists.

"I know, baby." You rub Tyler's arm, still making sure to put as much distance between him and anything Chris Jericho related as possible.

Sunday night rolls around and it's time for Dynasty. You're not scheduled for a match on the card so you opt to hang around backstage and provide Tyler with all the support that he needs tonight.

Tyler's been in a foul mood since Wednesday, and if you weren't a hater then you'd be fearing for Chris Jericho's well being right now.

"You want me out there with you?" You ask Tyler while he's getting ready for his match.

"Nah." Tyler shakes his head. "I can do this by myself." He assures you. "Can you maybe hang with my dad on commentary though?" He asks you.

You nod, surprised that Ty seems worried about his dad. "Yeah, sure." You pull your shoes back on while Tyler finishes getting ready.

The time comes for Tyler's match and the two of you head out. You let Tyler do his entrance by himself and go the back way down to the commentary table. Taz pulls up a chair for you to sit next to him in, but you decline his offer of a headset.

Chris saunters out to the ring after Tyler with his usual smug aura. You roll your eyes at the challenger as he passes the commentary desk but remain in your seat.

The bell rings and the match gets underway, and just like you suspected. It doesn't take long for the bout to get violent. You sit in silence next to Taz while Tyler and Chris go at it beating the crap out of one-another. You wince each time Chris uses a dirty tactic to try and get the upper hand and your anger grows with each second.

"Oh no." Taz slips his headset off his head once Chris retrieves his metal bat from where he was stashing it under the ring.

Tyler barely managed to kick-out of Jericho's last pinning attempt. So you know if Chris lands this than it's over for your boyfriend.

"Oh, fuck no!" You jump out of your seat and slip past Taz.

You rush around the ring and shove Jericho to the floor while's he's got his back turned away from you. Chris's bat goes flying out of his hands and you pick it up.

"Ty might be to proud to be a cheater, Chris." You stare down Jericho as he gets to his feet slowly. "But I'm not like my boyfriend."

You swing the bat at Jericho and it collides with his head. The blow instantly crumples Chris to his knees and you drop the bat. Tyler finally stirs in the ring so you haul Jericho's fat ass up and roll him into the ring before calmly walking back over to the commentary table.

You are met by Taz who looks at you with adoration like you've never seen on the man's face before.

In the ring, Tyler gets to his feet and locks in REDRUM on Chris, not that it's need after your handwork. Aubrey calls a stop to the match after checking on Chris and the bell rings. You pluck the FTW championship from it's perch at the timekeepers area and make your way into the ring.

Tyler lifts himself back to his feet again and you hand his championship back to him. "I knew you could do it." You smile at him and lift his hand in the air in victory.

"Thanks for the help, babe." Tyler whispers to you, secretly proud that you didn't let any of Chris's bullshit slide.

The crowd cheers for Tyler and you hear Taz mention you back at the commentary table proudly. Chris Jericho has been silenced and all is right in the world again.

Universal Cross Wrestling (Year 1, Month 3)

------------------------------

Post-Starrcade

------------------------------

Two days after UCW's first official schedule pay-per-view, UCW Blackout's 2nd full month goes live in Brooklyn with the first show of the month being just 48 hours removed from an eventful and epic Starrcade. The show begins with a championship coronation held by Triple H and William Regal that sees AJ Styles, Pete Dunne, and Karrion Kross all come down to the ring and celebrate their championship wins and defenses amongst the General Managers.

Hank is then called down to end the ceremony with a direct announcement as to who his next opponent for the World Championship will be; that being the newly debuting but very well known superstar of Adam Cole. However, Nene also makes her presence known with demands for a rematch against the World Champion--prompting Triple H to book a match between her and Adam Cole to decide a number #1 contender on the go-home show before UCW's next pay-per-view, No Mercy.

Sky is seen backstage speaking to Tricky on the topic of her arrival in UCW. The two lament on their friendship and the fact that the both of them-one from Hank and the other from Nene-have targets on their backs that have completely changed their lives for better and for worse.

Sky speaks on how when she first appeared in the Newgrounds universe, she was seen as nothing more than an obsessive waste of space by everyone besides Tricky who genuinely made an effort to be her friend, and when she decided to leave to try and reevaluate herself, she saw how people like Whitty, Zardy, and Ruv had grown be known as pioneers and megastars solely through their own dominating strength while away.

She then decided to take it upon herself to follow in their footsteps, and despite going against Tricky's warnings, seeks to use her own newfound strength to cut a path through UCW and show the world what she's capable of--starting with Nene and ending with the UCW champion.

The second round of the UCW Tag Team Championship tournament gets underway as reDRagon faces off against the debuting FTR to decide who will face The Way in the tournaments semi-finals. Between FTR's old school and physicality based style and reDRagon's more strike oriented and fast paced wrestling, reDRagon are able to outsmart the Revolt and come out on top to advance in the tournament.

The Tag Team Championship tournament's third round pits Black Void against the Usos to determine who faces either the Street Profits or Top Guys in the semi-finals. Though they are easily outmatched in power by Top Guys, the Usos use their synergy and teamwork to put them away in the end; sending the brothers further into the second half of the tournament.

William Regal announces that a Battle Royal will be held to decide who will face Bianca Belair at No Mercy for the UCW Women's Championship. The BR itself introduces new and old icons of women's wrestling to the crowd, and ends with both Io Shirai and Toni Storm hitting the outside at the exact same time--prompting Regal to make the match at No Mercy a triple threat match for the Women's Championship.

Roman Reigns cuts a promo from a dimly lit room backstage that details his history as a leader; from his time in NXT as a dough-rolling businessman to one of the three hounds of justice that made up the Shield, he reflects on his time in the limelight amongst those who followed him and compares those times to that of Ardbert's achievements. A supposed hero across two separate worlds that still failed to put him away is no hero at all in Roman's own words, and with the Warrior of Darkness himself out of action because of Roman Reigns, the Tribal Chief opts to turn his attention to someone who reminds him of himself--Karrion Kross and the Openweight Championship. Kross accepts this challenge later in the show, and Triple H makes it official for No Mercy.

Pete Dunne has a sit-down interview with ring announcer Justin Roberts following his win over Cesaro, an interview in which the bruiserweight claims to Triple H that the only people in UCW who have any prowess as submission specialists are either gone or have been already beaten by him. He states that he knows that his run as Submission Champion is just beginning, but by the look of UCW's roster and the names that catch his eye, Pete only sees one man who would even come close to his level and acknowledges that he isn't here either; that is until the man himself, Daniel Bryan, comes face to face with Dunne and throws out the challenge right there, which Dunne accepts.

———— Mid-Month Break ————

A Six Pack Challenge is held to determine who will face AJ Styles for the Undisputed Championship at No Mercy. This match consists of G'raha Tia, Tricky, Drew McIntyre, Papalymo, Thancred, Pico, and Darnell. Though the match goes on for an over-the-top and chaotic 20 minutes, the winner is decided when Darnell assists Pico in pinning Thancred to win an opportunity at AJ Styles. As for Darnell himself, he states to his friend that this is an opportunity made for Pico--Darnell has his own business to take care of.

The fourth round of the UCW Tag Team Championship tournament sees the Street Profits go two-on-two against Top Guys to see which of the two teams will face the Usos in the semi-finals. In the end, Montez Ford and Angelo Dawkins use their mixture of high flying and heavy hitting wrestling styles to outpower and outspeed Top Guys to a victory and a match against the Usos.

The UCW Tag Team Championship tournament's fifth round takes the tourney into its semi-final bracket, opening up with The Way facing off against reDRagon in an extremely technical and fast-paced clinic of a match. After 20 minutes of a consistently back and forth contest, The Way are able to use their resilience to run reDRagon dry of energy and defeat them to move on to the finals.

The sixth round in the Tag Team Championship tournament pits The Usos against the Street Profits in a match that blows the entire tournament out of the water. A nearly 30 minute instant classic of high-octane never slowing down action that sees both teams give their all in the vein of teamwork, synergy, and heart for a chance at the titles, the Usos are just narrowly capable of defeating the Profits and securing their spot in the finals.

The UCW Tag Team Championship tournament finishes with a bang: a 20 minute, always moving spot-fest between the Usos and The Way that sees both teams push themselves to their absolute limits both in desperation and courage for a shot at the Tag Team titles. Despite the efforts of the Way, however, the Usos defeat Johnny Gargano and Austin Theory in convincing fashion and come face to face with Sanford and Deimos as their match and title shot are locked in for No Mercy. By request of the Tag Team champions though, that match will take place as UCW's first ever ladder match for the Championships.

On the last episode of Blackout before No Mercy, Adam Cole makes his in-ring debut against Nene in a #1 Contender's match for Hank's UCW World Championship. The two of them absolutely bludgeon each other in a half hour long showcase of Cole's patented wrestling ability and Nene's hunger for another chance at the title. Sanford and Deimos make an attempt to get involved on the behalf of Hank late in the match, but are stopped by Darnell who even gets into a scuffle with Sky on the entrance ramp once the Tag Team champions are taken care of.

Darnell's involvement however throws Nene off just enough for Adam Cole to take advantage, spiking Nene with a Panama Sunrise and finishing her off with the Last Shot to secure a match with Hank in the main event of No Mercy. As a result, Nene demands a match against Sky at No Mercy from Regal and has her wish granted; stating that if Sky has a hit list all to show the world that she means business, then she better be prepared for her newly found enemies to fire back in the match that will be, by Nene's request, an Ironman match.

------------------------------

No Mercy

------------------------------

No Mercy opens up in the center of Brooklyn with the Tag Team Championship match; Wasteland Blood Vs. The Usos in a ladder match that tears through the bodies of both teams for a 20 minute clash of showcased unity. In the end, Wasteland Blood are just barely able to take the advantage from Jimmy and Jey and capitalize on the opportunity, retaining their titles in convincing fashion.

Roman Reigns, determined to show Karrion Kross that despite their similarities that he is the better man, puts on an absolute war against him for the Openweight Championship in the second match of the night. Even so, no matter what Reigns does to get through Karrion, the merciless monster fights through and defeats Roman Reigns by way of pinfall.

The third match on the card pits submission specialists against one another for the titular championship, that being Pete Dunne and Daniel Bryan who put on another 20 minute match that pushes them both to their very limits.

The match concludes with Bryan not tapping out, but passing out in a tight guillotine choke which Pete Dunne uses to retain the Submission Championship. However, when the match is over, Bryan takes a moment to sit in the ring amongst a clapping audience and claims that, knowing he couldn't beat Ardbert first and Pete Dunne now, he knows he needs to make a change. And he has an idea as to what kind of change.

The fourth match on the card of No Mercy was the one match that the entire pay-per-view was being sold on. Sky, having just returned from her own personal void to finally gain the respect she couldn't earn when she first arrived, sets her sights on a girl who she sees too much of herself in to keep around; Nene. And so, as soon as the bell is rung, the both of them give it their all to brawl like hell from beginning to end in a relentless, brutal, half-hour long fight in which both women walk away with injuries from. However, even with all the perseverance in the world, Sky isn't able to defeat Nene, losing by 3 falls to 4 and coming up short by just that match. Tricky attempts to console her after the bell, but is shoved off while Sky leaves backstage.

In what is presented as one of No Mercy's three main events to cap off the pay-per-view, Bianca Belair defends her UCW Women's Championship against the likes of both Toni Storm and Io Shirai. The match lasts for a decisive 15 minutes with a collection of over-the-top mat wrestling and high-flying spectacle showcased between the three women, ending with Bianca Belair pinning Toni Storm to retain her Women's Championship.

The second to last match on the card of No Mercy is for the most prestigious title in the company; the UCW World Championship, placed in between the wills of Hank J. Wimbleton and Adam Cole. The two of them showcase the absolute best pure wrestling ability they have to offer, and though Adam Cole comes just shy of a 3 count on two occasions, Hank is able to overpower Adam-not without the help of Sanford and Deimos-and retain the world title with a grating laugh.

The main event of the show sees Pico take on AJ Styles for the Undisputed Championship in a match of the year worthy showing. Nearly a full 30 minutes of pure mat wrestling and high moves calls the match from start to finish, and eventually ends with Pico overextending his own offense and giving AJ a chance to capitalize; sealing the victory and allowing him to retain the title. However, after the match, AJ calls for the shocking assistance of Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson from the crowd, who emerge with plans to attack Pico until all three of them are warded off by an appearing Boyfriend and Girlfriend to close out the night.

●Logan Paul x Reader●

Summary: You are a commentator for Smackdown. Logan comes out during Austin Theory's match.

________________________________________

*Y/N's POV*

Sitting at the commentary table with my colleagues Corey Graves and Wade Barrett, we are getting prepared for Austin Theory vs Randy Orton. Randy makes his way down to the ring while Grayson and Austin are standing infront of the commentary table.

"Looks like Randy Orton means business tonight!"

"He definitely does Y/N! He has been wanting to get his hands on Austin for awhile."

I go to say something but get cut off by someone's theme song blaring over the arena. I look at the monitor seeing Logan Paul making his way down to the ring and walking over to the commentary table high fiving Grayson and Austin. He sits down next to me as I grab him a headset. He looks over at me grabbing the headset and puts it on.

"Nobody told me I would be sitting next to such beauty."

I giggle and look down trying to hide my blush. Wade and Corey start laughing at Logan and I look back over at him. He winks at me and turns back to watching the match. We continue calling the match with Logan making mean comments towards Randy. Randy rolls out of the ring and starts moving stuff off the table. I stand up along with Logan and he grabs my waist with one hand pulling my back into his chest.

"Don't worry. I gotchu babygirl. You ain't gonna get hurt."

I gulp hearing him call me babygirl which gives me butterflies in my stomach. Randy lifts up Austin and drops him on the table on his back.

"Oh man. That looks like it hurts."

Randy grabs Austin and throws him back in the ring when Grayson tries to get involved. Randy grabs him and drops him on the table as well.

"Oh man. Poor Waller."

We all sit back down at the table and Logan looks over at me not seeing Randy rolling out of the ring.

"Logan. Logan!"

I try to warn him but Randy grabs Grayson and throws him into Logan causing his chair to tip over and his head hit the barricade. Randy climbs back into the ring and I look over at Logan who is trying to stand back up. He stands up, grabs his U.S. championship and hands it to me.

"Hold on to this for me sweetcheeks. I'll be right back."

I take the belt, put it on my lap and watch him run into the ring. He goes to punch Randy in the face but Randy is to quick and RKO's him in the middle of the ring. Logan rolls to the outside and without a second thought, I take my headset off and walk over to him laying infront of the commentary table. Randy picks up the win and heads to the back. I kneel down next to Logan putting my hand on his head.

"Logan. Are you okay?"

He slowly looks up at me and smiles a little seeing his championship on my shoulder. He sits up looking at me while I rub his head.

"You look damn good with my championship on your shoulder. Maybe I can convince Nick that you should be my manager."

I laugh and lightly push his head causing him to laugh. I stand up and I help him stand up. He looks down at me and smiles putting his hands out. I hand him his championship back looking up at him.

"We should go out some time. My treat."

"I would like that."

He leans down, kisses my cheek than walks to the back. I smile putting my hand on my cheek making my way back to the commentary table.

"What was that Y/N?"

"I got myself a date."

Summary: Fed up with listening to Drew talking shit about her man, reader confronts Mcintyre about his big mouth. Against Punk's wishes, of course.

Raw is hosting it's final show before what is set to be a record-breaking WrestleMania weekend. You are hanging out backstage with a few girlfriends after your match with Indi Hartwell near the start of the show.

You are listening to Liv Morgan vent about Becky and Rhea when you spot Drew Mcintyre enter the room from catering. Your jaw clenches involuntary and Liv notices the fire in your eyes.

"YN? You alright?" Liv tilts her head at you.

"Hmm?" You turn your attention back on Liv. "Yeah, its nothing." You nod absently, attention back on the other side of the room.

Liv turns around and sees Drew talking with someone on the other side of the room. "Oh, Drew." She nods to herself before turning back to you.

"Yeah, Drew." You confirm, venom dripping in your tone as you continue to mean-mug the Scot afar. "Sorry, Liv." You turn back to her after a minute.

"Its alright." Liv shrugs. "I get it. Drew's been running his mouth about your man. I'd be pissed too."

Your sour expresion softens and you nod. "Phil's arm is almost healed up." You smile to yourself. "And when he's back to his usual self, Drew will get what he deserves." You glance back over at Drew one last time. "Though I do have half a mind to go over there and knock him down a peg myself." You mumble to yourself.

"Oh! That'd be fun to see!" Liv giggles, being her usual chaotic self.

"Don't encourage me." You huff, eyes back on Drew.

Eventually your intense gaze manages to catch Drew's attention. Mcintyre meets your gaze and a smug smile warps onto his face. You roll your eyes at him, which prompts Drew to come sauntering over to you and Liv.

"Oh god." You clench your teeth. "Liv, please tell me not to hit him if he comes over here." You ask her.

"Mmm, no promises." Liv giggles and winks at you.

Drew comes sauntering over to the two of you, making a point to come to a stop in front of you.

"Afternoon, Liv." Drew greets Morgan first. "Always a pleasure seeing you around." He smiles at her.

"Hi, Drew." Liv waves at Mcintyre with a mischievous grin. "YN and I were just talking about you." She looks over at you and giggles.

You shoot Liv a glare as Drew turns toward you. "Is that so?" He quirks a brow at you. "So, CM Punk's lady likes to run her mouth just like her man then?" He taunts you.

"Yeah, sure." You roll your eyes. "I run my mouth about shit that doesn't concern me." You fire back, your gaze fixed on Drew's stupid meme shirt regarding your husbands squashed WrestleMania plans.

Drew huffs a breath from his nose, his nostrils flaring up in your face. "I'd watch my mouth if I were you, little lass." He warns you. "Your loser hypocrite of a husband ain't here to protect you." He reminds you.

"I don't need any man to protect me." You snap back at Drew, chest puffed out. "Especially from some whiny little bitch that had to get his kicks dogging on my man just so he could stay relevant."

"Ooo!" Liv coos behind you.

Drew chuckles and stares down at you. "And tell me, little lass? Who's got a title match this weekend?" He taunts you.

"Fuck you." You growl at Mcintyre.

Drew chuckles again and walks off. You watch him saunter off and your anger and disdain for the man only grows. Liv puts a hand on you after Drew is gone so you turn back to her.

"Well, that was super fun!" Liv giggles.

"Yeah, loads." You huff. "Im headed back to the locker room. Catch you later, Liv." You give her a quick hug before heading off.

Later in the night you return to your hotel room where your husband is waiting for you.

"Phil? Sweetie? Im back." You announce yourself as you come through the door.

"Hey! There's my breadwinner wife!" Punk calls back to you from where he's lounging on the bed. "How was Raw? I saw you beat Indi." He adds.

You shut the door and lug your bag over to the foot of the bed. You drop your bag with a heavy sigh and plop down onto the bed.

"Work was fine." You explain. "I mostly just hung out with Liv after my match. Nothing special." You close your eyes and allow yourself to relax a bit.

"Nothing special, huh?" Punk replies and scoots down to you. He runs a hand through your hair, smiling down at you. "So you don't consider getting into it backstage with Drew Mcintyre nothing special then?"

You open your eyes and find Phil looking down at you. "How'd you find out about that?" You ask him.

"I have my people." Phil shrugs. "I do vaguely recall asking you to leave Drew to me though." He reminds you.

"I know." You sigh. "And I was trying, I swear." You insist with a sigh. "But I see him walking around backstage like some self-assured dickhead wearing that idiotic shirt." You huff. "And I hear all the stuff he says about you. And I just can't keep quiet. Okay?"

Phil smiles to himself and nods. He runs his hands through your hair again and shakes his head at you. "And that is one of the many reasons that I love you." He leans down and kisses your forehead. "But come on, YN. There was a reason I asked you to leave it alone."

"I'm sorry, babe." You frown. "Mcintyre just irks me so much." You huff. "God I can't wait to watch you kick his ass." You look back up at Punk.

"Imagine how excited I am." Phil chuckles and you watch him slide off the bed and come around to your side. "Get those off." He gestures to your clothes. "I know that you've got to be sore after that match with Indi. So i'll run you a bath." He explains before heading to the bathroom.

You close your eyes again and smile to yourself. "I love you!" You call out to Punk. "Best husband ever!" You shout with a laugh.

You hear Punk chuckle from the bathroom. "Pretty sure I'm the lucky one!" He shouts back at you. "And I love you too, sweetie!"

wrestling fic writers!!

i have decided to be the change i wanna see, so lets do a nice little thing for each other, as a community full of incredible and talented writers. yes this is writer specific only, but thats cause thats where the main problem of people not interacting with creative works lies in this fandom as far as i can tell and have seen people talking about it especially in the last couple of months

if you read this, please add links to your written works. it can be just a single fic youre really proud of, your writing blog, your writing tag, your ao3 account, anything where your works can be found

and if you leave your link here, PLEASE check out someone else that has left their works, and interact with them. leave them a comment, even just a kudos, REBLOG their fic, etc. interacting is the keyword i want to emphasize here, along with building a sort of a masterpost of where to find people writing in this fandom

and if you are not a writer, youre still highly encouraged to interact with this post and share it and show love to the writers in this fandom, obviously!! i think that should go without saying, but adding it in anyways

a bit more about my vision and resources and such under the read more, but thats the gist of it. happy linking and please be kind and supportive to each other!! 💜

nobody is too big or too small to add their things on this list. if you write and post anything in this fandom whatsoever, be it fics or drabbles or headcanons, any companies or any kind of ships or reader inserts or any content whatsoever no matter how 'dead dove dont eat' or hell even if its just meta, we welcome all here and nobody can say that one thing is less valid than another. just please tag your content accordingly, especially if theres content warnings, and feel free to mention what you write, who you write, any info you wish to leave that would help people before they click on your links. but even so, that should not and hopefully will not deter people from interacting, no matter what it is. someones trash is another ones treasure, i promise you

and unless the amount gets really overwhelming, im personally going to be checking out everyone that leaves something here. unless it squeaks me out, but even then, i'll spread the word. and i just wish as many people as possible will do the same, and not just use this as a potential board to only get eyes on their stuff. ofc thats also the point, but you should give as much, if not more, than you get. we need to be kind and supportive of one another (besides, from personal experience, if you show love to someone else, they are more likely to do it back than without you taking the first step, so... pay it forward)

as for resources, heres a few links that should be helpful in leaving comments and feedback. of course everyone does their own thing and no comment is too big or too small to leave, but for those who need them. if you have anything you'd like added to this list, dont hesitate to get in touch or drop it in the post yourself!!

dont know how to comment? easy solutions

a quick hot guide to commenting (by yours truly)

an overall guide to appreciating fanfic writers

and just in general.. leave people comments. leave them asks about their projects. just go over and gush about their work. i know it sounds embarrassing but writers love nothing more than to hear that someone likes what they are doing. if you find a fic that hasnt been updated in forever, comment on it. it might just be the spark the author needs to continue. while kudos and likes are nice, and just as valuable to some, its definitely in the words the people leave for them that matter the most. im not saying this to put pressure on anyone, its just how it is, and i feel like unless people are writers themselves, and even then sometimes, thats just hard to grasp, especially if the writer is a smaller and less popular one who doesnt get a lot of traffic in the first place

i think thats all. just be nice and considered to everyone, reblog peoples works, this post with others add ons and so forth. and if i find anyone talking shit here or at other writers for something they share, you'll be blocked and im probably taking your kneecaps. be fucking nice. we are all struggling here and we need to stick together

happy sharing and commenting 💜💜
