DEADLINE: 4:30 P.M. EST / 9:30 P.M. GMT





1. Champions of the Chamber
World Heavyweight Champion Drew McIntyre and Tag Team Champions Chad Gable and Chris Sabin successfully defied the odds of the Elimination Chamber by walking into, and out of the structure with their Championships still in tact. Despite Tyler Breeze eliminating Aleister Black and previously coming out victorious in the gauntlet match among the World Heavyweight Championship contenders, Prince Pretty’s dreams of winning the gold were short-lived and briskly put to rest by the defending Champion, the Scottish Psychopath. Aiden English was up for the chopping block next when the former World Heavyweight Champ was eliminated by the Velveteen Dream. Following that, Daniel Bryan was pinned by the Champion, which brought the tally down to 2, that being the Velveteen Dream and Drew McIntyre himself. In the end, the Scottish-born Champion was able to put the Dream to rest and retain his Championship, making him only the second superstar in history to do so inside of the Elimination Chamber. Closing the show in the Main Event of the night, however, the Trash City Stupid Idiots achieved the same seemingly unattainable feat when one half of the defending Champions Chris Sabin eliminated Kenny Omega, and the other half Chad Gable eliminated Sami Zayn. With both of the challenging teams now down a partner, an unlikely alliance of Jay White and Kota Ibushi temporarily came into play. Unfortunately for the challengers, however, this was not enough to shake the unbreakable cohesive unit of the longest reigning Tag Team Champions. Gable went on to pin the remainder of the Cut Throat Era in Jay White, and Sabin did the same to the resilient but outnumbered remainder of the Golden Lovers, Kota Ibushi. You can practically hear the synthesizers of the A-ha’s hit single playing in the distance as the Trash City Stupid Idiots’ historic reign continues.


2. And Still...
Several Champions were able to cling to walk in, and out of Downpour with their reigns still in tact, although two specifically could not manage to do so without a little controversy. While World Television Championship contender Kyle O’Reilly thought he had the match won after striking the current Champ Dolph Ziggler with a chair and escaping the Steel Cage, it was Ziggler who still managed to walk out of Downpour with his championship reign still in tact. How you might ask? Although O’Reilly may have escaped the Steel Cage first, the referee was down and out due to an unintended super kick by O’Reilly himself. This mistake would prove fatal for Kyle’s championship opportunity when the wily Dolph attacked Kyle from behind and dragged him back inside of the cage only to escape himself just as the referee came to. This rivalry continues to boil over though, as on this week’s edition of Anarchy, O’Reilly has demanded and been granted a Steel Cage rematch for the World Television Championship. Only this time, escape is not an option for the champion or the challenger. Meanwhile, after being sent through the ringer and a chamber pod in the Women’s Championship Elimination Chamber match, Alexa Bliss came up short (pun intended) and was eliminated. However, Bliss’s efforts to survive Downpour wouldn’t end there. Per Mandy Rose’s request, Bliss was pulling double duty and was also booked for the match she originally demanded against Rose for the North American Championship. Careful what you wish for, as Alexa discovered last week, too much of a good thing is most certainly a bad thing. During her second Championship match of the night against the Golden Goddess, Little Miss Bliss found herself duped by the elusive North American Champion once again. When Rose rolled out of the ring for a breather, she received a mysterious object from an even more mysterious hooded figure in the front row. The insult was added to Bliss’s prior injuries when she rolled out of the ring to retrieve the Champion, and was struck repeatedly by her very own Bliss Stick, causing Alexa to win the match off of disqualification, but not the gold. However once again, Alexa’s struggle to survive Downpour was not yet over. Vince McMahon, in an effort to save Mandy’s reputation in the record books, restarted the match by having Alexa’s lifeless body positioned back inside of the ring. This granted Bliss her record-breaking third Championship opportunity of the night, which she lost in a total of 3.84 seconds. While God’s Greatest Title Reign continues to stack up W’s, something tells us the tension between these two superstars is far from over.

3. The King and Queen Reclaim Their Thrones
Appropriately, the poster boy and girl of XWL’s next special event, Coronation, were able to reclaim what was previously theirs in their matches last week. Matt Sydal and tessa Blanchard were the only “new” Champions to be crowned at Downpour, but not without both superstars putting some blood, sweat, and tears into the process. Blanchard won her second Women’s Championship by defeating Kairi Sane inside of the Elimination Chamber. It all came down to the former and defending Champion when Tessa eliminated the Genius of the Sky, Io Shirai, and Five Feet of Fury, Alexa Bliss, and the defending Champion Kairi eliminated the Empress of tomorrow, Asuka, as well as the Man, Becky Lynch (compliments of Asuka). These two familiar and respected foes battled it out inside of the Chamber until Sane went for the fatal Cutlass, but Blanchard had it well scouted and was able to reverse it into her own devastating Hammerlock DDT, regaining her Women’s Championship. The other half of the Coronation poster, Matt Sydal, proved that he is the undisputed Iron Man of XWL when he finally put away the man who at one point ended his previous Intercontinental Championship reign, as well as his friendship with the Undisputed Era. With a tie of 2-2 on the scoreboard and literal seconds on the clock, the Golden Boy did the unthinkable when his Australian rival got a little too cocky for his own good while setting up his finishing maneuver. This gave the Iron Man the slight opening he needed, and he took full advantage of it. As the final remaining seconds began to strike away, Sydal miraculously managed to capitalize off of a Sunset Flip and keep Murphy’s shoulders down for 3 seconds, virtually just in the nick of time. Thus, the former King of the Ring and now 4x Intercontinental Champion and 2x Women’s Champion achieved greatness once again at Downpour.


4. Tournament Season
Competition is in the summer air, as we head into the season of opportunity. This year, XWL has not 1, not 2, but 3 tournaments lined up to offer a wide variety of superstars their shot to achieve greatness. The annual King and Queen of the Ring tournaments are underway with a surprising new twist. The winners of this year’s tournaments will attain more than just bragging rights. As we learned last week, this year’s winners will win their crown, but will now have the option to turn in that crown for a Championship match within 90 days of their respective victories. As if the King and Queen of the Ring tournaments lacked any sort of competitive nature in the past, this new element is sure to kick things up a notch. In addition to the King and Queen of the Ring tournaments, XWL will also be holding the 2nd annual Motor City Cup tournament, which will determine the next new contenders for Sabin and Gable’s Tag Team Championships. With several new teams thrown into the fray, which pairings will stick together and find success, and which will fall apart at the seams?

5. With Every Beginning Comes an End
Downpour brought us quite the variety of new and returning faces. The likes of Cesaro, Nia Jax, Ronda Rousey, Elias, and Braun Strowman all teased their returns to the ring while rising stars like Keith Lee, Joey Janela, Rhea Ripley, Lio Rush made their presence known along with news of an upcoming debut Sonya Deville, and Killer Kross in the works for the Queen of the Ring and King of the Ring tournaments. With all of these doors opening, it is unfortunate that one instrumental door is coming to a close. After joining the likes of Aleister Black, Tyler Breeze, Daniel Bryan, and Velveteen Dream in being eliminated out of the Elimination Chamber match, former World Heavyweight Champion Aiden English made the not-so-subtle announcement last week outside of Vince McMahon’s office that this episode of Anarchy will be his last. What impact will English make on his last week, and among this new crop of stars, who will step up and take the spotlight over their peers?

{Kayla Braxton}
Ladies and gentlemen my guest at this time, Peyton Royce.

The IIconics, Peyton Royce and Billie Kay walk up to Kayla with disgusted looks on their faces, rolling their eyes in anguish.

{Peyton Royce}
Oh really Kayla? Just Peyton Royce? Is my wife just invisible to you, you dumb brat?

{Billie Kay}
Aww thanks babe.. yeah KAYLA did you not see me standing here? Are you for cereal?

{Kayla Braxton}
Well I’m sorry Billie but you aren’t even a member of the XWL Roster so I didn’t think you’d be here too.

{Peyton Royce}
Wow Kayla you’re just being rude now. You know I don’t know why I even agree to do interviews with you. Are ya gonna ask me any questions or what?

{Kayla Braxton}
Alright fi…

{Cathy Kelly}
Hey Kayla, sorry to interrupt your interview and all but you weren’t answering my calls earlier.. are we still on for dinner later?

{Kayla Braxton}
Oh yeah of course we are, I’ll meet you out back after the show?

{Cathy Kelly}
Sounds great, see you then!

{Billie Kay}
Oh you have got to be joking me!! I get it Cathy, you are obsessed with me, and Kayla is just a jerk, but WE were trying to have an interview about HER chances of winning the entire Queen of the Ring tournament. But NOOOOOOO. Your two’s dinner plans trumped all of that. We are both the future of the XWL Women’s Division, and the FUTURE IS!!!

Cathy and Kayla at the same time
IICONIC!

Peyton and Billie both look at each other angrily at the fact their catch-phrase had just been stolen right in front of them

{Peyton Royce}
THE FUTURE IS LEAVING.

The IICONICS walk away leaving a giggiling Cathy and Kayla behind.

Normal Match

Queen of the Ring 1st Round




Roughly 10 minutes deep into the match, Liv Morgan hits Mickie James with her "Blue Face" face buster from the second rope. Instead of going for a pin, Morgan opts to attempt to put the match away and secure her advancement, putting her one step closer to the coveted Queen of the Ring crown.



Liv slowly pulls herself up to her feet. Her uniquely twisted grin quickly spreading across her face as she finds her footing and lies in wait for Mickie to get up. After stalking the veteran until she too was now standing, Liv takes a few fast steps back, rebounding off of the ropes before darting straight towards Mickie like a psychotic missile with a lethal dose of double knees in store.



The Blue-Tongued Brat grabs onto the back of James's head while she leaps into the air, placing both of her knees against the full face of Mickie James. As Liv's body and grip on Mickie brings both competitors down, Mickie's face brutally snaps back off of Morgan's kneecaps, sending her straight back onto the mat and out cold for the count. Liv scrambles in for the cover, eagerly hooking both legs and kicking her feet up and down in anticipation...


1...


2...!


3!!!





Liv instantly rolls out of the ring after a sudden victory and successful advancement in the "Brat" Bracket of the Queen of the Ring tournament. The Juvenile Delinquent trots around ringside, holding onto the right side of her ribs just to keep pressure on the wear and tear spots she acquired during the match. One part of her body that wasn't affected, however, was her trademarked blue tongue. Liv sticks her blue raspberry tongue out proudly in the face of the face while she skips by, screaming out in her banshee-like voice:

[LIV Morgan]
QUEEN LIV, COMIN' THROUGH! 'SCUSE ME! HAHAHAHA!

Liv's obnoxious and immature laughter flows 'round ringside while she skips her way back to the ramp, turning back on the heel of her Air Jordan's to take one last look at her fallen opponent. Morgan sticks her hand up coyly next to her face and wriggles her fingers in a playful manner. Her blue tongue, of course, was accompanying the wave as she smirks and skips to the back.

Winner:

King of the Ring 1st Round





Mauro Ranallo: Austin is setting him up for the stunner the rattlesnake is stalking his prey getting ready to strike!

Corey Graves:If he hits this its all over for HBK and once again the broken down old man will have shown that what everyone says is true that old HBK can't hack it with the big boys anymore.

HBK stumbles to his feet turns round and Austin kicks him in the gut and goes for the stunner but Michaels reverses it and then lands a superkick to Austin nearly taking his head off in the process.

Mauro Ranallo: MAMA MIA ! WHAT A SUPERKICK ITS OVER !


Corey Graves: Kick out Austin! Kick out !


HBK covers Austin as the ref counts to three as the crowd explodes for the win.


Mauro Ranallo: What a match by both competitors but you always have to watch out for that superkick it can come from nowhere and that is whats cost the rattlesnake tonight.


The camera fades away as it shows HBK celebrating his victory in the ring
 

[Mauro Ranallo]
Well everyone here comes the man who fought valiantly against The Ring General Walter last night at Downpour, only for Walter to end the match in a definitely unexpected fashion.

[Corey Graves]
“Fought valiantly”? Sure, Cena put up a good fight, but at the end of the day, Walter was in Cena’s head the entire match, controlling him, toying with him. As much as we love to talk about John Cena as an industry veteran, it’s clear that his desire to succeed here in XWL in a way he never has before is getting to him, and making him an easy target for men like the Ring General.

But if Walter is in Cena’s head, it’s now showing right now. Because when Cena comes out from behind the curtain, he looks as joyous as ever, yelling out to the crowd, posing, and all around looking like he’s having a great time, although right now he has a microphone in hand. As always, he turns to the camera to deliver a message to everyone watching at home.

[John Cena]
No contest ain’t a loss!

Cena turns his attention toward the ring and as always, begins his signature sprint into it. Once he’s made his way into the ring, he raises the microphone, beginning to speak.

[John Cena]
Little Rock, how’s everyone doing?

As expected, Cena’s mention of the town Anarchy is taking place in tonight gets a big pop, prompting Cena to laugh at himself for going for such a “cheap pop”.

[John Cena]
Alright alright, seriously though. I’m not just out here to get cheap reactions. I’m out here to address what happened last night. I’m out here to address you, Walter.

[John Cena]
Cause when I was up there on that ramp, I looked into the camera and said: “No contest ain’t a loss”. And I meant it. But not in the way you probably think. To me, a no contest, a double count-out, whatever you want to call the end of our match, was far worse than a loss. We went in there last night to figure out which of us two was the better man, and trust me, big guy, there were plenty of times where I thought it was you. I tried AA after AA, everything I could to try and keep you down, and none of it was working. I was just about ready to admit defeat.

[John Cena]
But then you went and got us both counted out on purpose. Instead of deciding to roll back in that ring and take the victory, you stood over my lifeless body and posed, as if you were doing something impressive. Well, I got news for ya “General”, it wasn’t impressive. It was cowardly. And I’m sure it’s supposed to be messing with me or something, but to me, it shows that you’re even less of a man that I thought. You may be tough, but when it comes down to it, you don’t have the guts to get the job done.

[John Cena]
But I want to be wrong about that. I’d love to be wrong about that. So that’s why right here, right now, I’m calling you out. Come down to this ring and prove you’re a man.

With that, Cena throws down his microphone and stands in the ring, awaiting the arrival of Walter, yelling “Come on”.

[Corey Graves]
Look at this, Cena giving Walter exactly what he wanted, a reaction.

[Mauro Ranallo]
How is this what Walter wanted? Cena has called him out here and questioned his manhood! Almost any man would be fuming backstage right now!

[Corey Graves]
But not the Ring General.

[Renee Young]
We’ll just have to wait and see.

As Cena continued to wait in the ring, it becomes increasingly obvious there is little to no chance that Walter is going to come out to accept his challenge. Despite this, Cena remains in the ring, waiting for Walter to come to answer him. Eventually, the wait gets long enough that crew members even come forward to tell Cena he has to leave so XWL can go to its new segment. And yet he does not budge. Unsure of what to do, we can hear the production crew murmuring amongst themselves, and while Cena is still standing in the ring waiting, Anarchy goes to an impromptu commercial break.

Cameras cut to a the locker room area where we see Brian Pillman Jr pacing back and forth in the room.

BPJ
Damnit!

BPJ picks up an empty cup and throws it at the wall.

BPJ
I messed up my opportunity.

BPJ slams his fist on the locker and puts his forehead on the locker with his eyes closed.

BPJ
The King Of The Ring tournament is my foot in the World Heavyweight title scene.

BPJ opens his eyes, clearly calmed down, and sits on the bench with head down as he continues to speak.

BPJ
That match against Daniel Bryan really put a toll on my body tonight, but that's not going to stop me from pinning Bray Wyatt in the middle of that ring tonight. Clean.

BPJ looks up and gets up in his ring attire.  Clearly ready for his match.

BPJ
1...2...3...

As cameras stay viewing the locker room see BPJ exit the locker room.  Pillman Jr voice echoes as "KING OF THE RING! I'LL SHOW EVERYONE WHO THE KING OF THE RING IS!" Pillman Jr laughing can be heard as XWL goes to a commercial.

Normal Match
King of the Ring Round 1

The theme song sends a shockwave over the XWL universe as the Tyrant himself emerges from behind the curtain. Clad in tape that surrounds his abdomen area tonight with the World Championship across his shoulder he moves to center stage for all the world to see. He's moving slower than usual. Obviously in pain from the beating taken during the Chamber but here he stands, still, your XWL World Champion.

[Renee Young]
And still!

[Corey Graves]
We get it Renee, he won.

[Mauro Ranallo]
It's not just that he won, Corey. It's that he survived the Chamber. The first World Champion to do that and the second champion ever to do that.

McIntyre begins to move down the ramp, taking his time as he does so. He doesn't want to move to quickly as he looks around to the crowd, nodding to them as they cheer or boo him. He doesn't care the reaction. He's here for one thing and one thing only. McIntyre finds himself the stairs to enter the ring, climbing them slolwy and entering the ring. As he does he grabs his waist, having apparently strained it during the entry but regain composure. He moves to the center of the ring, holding a mic that someone handed over during his entrance.

[Drew McIntyre]
Two weeks ago I stood in this ring, held this title high and made a promise. A promise to walk into the Chamber as the World Heavyweight Champion and to walk out, still, World Heavyweight Champion. Well look me in the eyes as I tell you that I kept, my, word.

The crowd comes alive again for him before soon hushing, wanting to hear what else he has to say.

[Drew McIntyre]
Not only am I the second champion in history to retain inside the Chamber, but I'm the very first World Champion to do so. That means I did something that no man before me has done. I said that. I told everyone that now, things are different. I'm not just a World Champion like those that came before me, I'm the guy who is setting the bar. Much like the tag champs are, much like Natalya did for the Women's Title. I'm showing what it means to be the World Champion.

McIntyre raises the title for a moment before returning to the mic, the crowd beginning to chant his name.

[Drew McIntyre]
Because before me, it was drug through the dirt. It was held by people who didn't live up to their words. Their own hype. People who clawed and scratched to get there only to let everyone down. I'm not like those men. I'm not Gargano who ran when things got tense. I'm not Aiden who couldn't win the big one. Though, that man has my respect now, unlike the others. I'm not JBL, who whines and cries his way into anything he ever had and demands things he has no right to. Only to lose when he's faced with a little adversity.

The crowd pops for the shot at the former champion, to which McIntyre simply continues.

[Drew McIntyre]
I don't wince in the face of adversity. I welcome it. That's why I walked into the Chamber first. That's why I walked out LAST. No one. No man, woman, legend, rookie or vet can stand toe to toe with me inside this ring. I am, THE, man. I am the Titanium Tyrant from Ayr. I am the bar. The example. I am the King, of XWL. And no one, and I mean no one, is taking this title, or my throne away from m-

Suddenly McIntyre is interrupted and sent flailing onto the ground in a heap of unconscious flesh. the camera goes silent. You could literally hear a pin drop. the camera shows feet of a a man standing over Mcintyre before it slowly begins to make its way up towards his waist showing black trunk. then continues up his body until finally it reveals him as none other than.....

[Renee Young]
Oh my god, its…

[Mauro Ranallo]
ITS…

[Corey Graves]
ITS JBL!!!

And they were right. For standing above the World Heavyweight Champion was none other than the former champion himself. A man we haven't seen in XWL in over a month. He stands above McIntyre with a sickening smirk stretched across his face, obviously happy with himself. He soaks in this moment before eventually crouching down to retrieve the microphone McIntyre had been using jus moments ago.

$JBL$
Four weeks ago right here in this ring was the last time I was seen here in XWL. I disappeared. I packed my bags and went home after my "devastating loss" to my former prodigy, Aiden English. I'm then sitting at home watching this "champions" run from International Incident to now. A run that has absolutely nothing of note EXCEPT somehow pulling a fluke win out of his ass at Downpour last night. The same type of bullshit so called "victory" he got over me at International Incident. A cowards way to win. But you see, McIntyre is a "man" who doesn’t see the problem. He ignores it and spews bullshit from his mouth like water from a hose. He talks about me being high of myself? Well look at him. A man who thinks himself a king. Well I've got news for you son. If you’re a king that I'm your ex wife tiffany.

By now McIntyre has begun to regain consciousness and begins to stir.

$JBL$
So if your this "champion" you claim to be, why don’t you put your money where your mouth is. I'm cashing in my rightful rematch clause right here tonight. The question is, are you going to back up your shit, or is it all just a check you cant cash?

[Renee Young]
WHAT?! No way! Are we about to get an unexpected World Heavyweight Championship match right here tonight?

[Mauro Ranallo]
No way Renee. JBL lost his chance after loosing to Aiden English last month. Our Champion Drew McIntyre doesn’t owe JBL anything and he certainly has nothing to prove after last night.

[Corey Graves]
Are you stupid Mauro? JBL never got his rightful rematch. Plus McIntyre has made claims of being "king" of the XWL roster, lets see if his words hang true…that is, if he accepts.

JBL tosses the microphone onto the ground next to McIntyre as he back into a corner awaiting an answer. Drew uses the ropes to stand looking at JBL with a look of disgust. The two men lock eyes, the hatred can be seen fuming from both men. It seems we will never get an answer until finally McIntyre yells "COME ON" in a loud roar motioning JBL to bring it on. JBL smiles as he begins to pace his corner, McIntyre doing the same as a referee runs down the ramp into the ring.

[Renee Young]
This is happening!

[Mauro Ranallo]
You’ve got to be kidding me. Why would drew accept?

[Corey Graves]
What's wrong Mauro? Scared for your so called "king"?

[Mauro Ranallo]
He just competed in a chamber last night while your "god" hasn’t been see in a month. How is that fair?

[Corey Graves]
Life isnt fair Mauro, get used to it hahaha.

The referee is between the two hated rivals. He checks with both to ensure they are ready before calling for the bell.

DING DING DING

[Mauro Ranallo]
AMAZING! Hahaha, I cant believe it. 6 SECONDS, the quickest XWL match EVER. What do you have to say now Corey?

[Corey Graves]
Fluke! He wasn’t ready! This is the worst travesty in professional wrestling since the Montreal Screw job!

The crowd erupts into one of the biggest pops XWL has seen in years. McIntyre laughs as he stands over the fallen "god". He is handed his World Heavyweight Championship and holds it high above his head. He rolls out of the ring and begins to make his way up the ramp, leaving JBL alone in the ring, looking up to the rafters. The music fades after time, and the crowds laughter dies down before JBL sits up. He has tears pouring out of his eyes rolling down his face. He crawls to the side of the ring where a microphone lays. He picks it up and attempts to speak, but he is muffled by his own crying and embarrassment. He looks around him as he continues to try but he just cant get it out. Until finally he is able to scream the words that no one ever thought he would say.

$JBL$
I QUIT!!!!!

JBL tosses the ring and rolls out of the ring before stumbling up the ramp. The crowd is ecstatic. The night they never thought would come is finally here. JBL is finally out of XWL!

[Corey Graves]
NO! not like this!

[Renee Young]
Oh my, I cant believe this…

[Mauro Ranallo]
I can! JBL has finally smartened up. He is finally out of our hair. Now we don’t have to deal with his self richous bull week after week. Can you imagine  JBL free XWL? It'll be paradise. This is the best Anarchy Main Event…EVER!

And with that the last image we see is JBL's tear full face as he stumbles backstage and away from XWL…..Forever?
