Fantasy War Episode 12 - No Way Out


Narrator
After failing to secure the WCC Championship,
The Baugh returns to the Mustang Unit empty handed.
It's been a long journey back from the WCC,
but with the Time Stone in his possession and a playoff spot in the balance,
The Baugh must carry on the fight.


Coach Justin
So no Championship huh?
Well, might as well give up on the season then.
Stop trying so hard, stop updating our team, you know?
If you don't try, no one can say you're not any good.
They can only say you didn't try and didn't put in the effort.
With my philosophy, you can never let yourself down,
cause no one expects anything out of you.

The Baugh
We're not giving up.

Coach Justin
Okay, well.
At least Donald Trump lost the election.
I think that's enough work for one season.


The Baugh
That's not a win. 
He won't concede and now he's got more Fantasy Stones.
After he killed Shane McMahon,
it's clear he won't go down without a fight.
The time for action is now. It's time to attack.
With or without the WCC Championship.


Detective Tai
Just got off the phone with a buddy of mine in the Bureau,
they're planning a raid on Trump Tower this Sunday.
They want to bring him in,
so at least we got the Feds on our side.
After what he did a couple of weeks ago,
the entire country wants to see him fall.
So with a proper plan and the Time Stone, I think we can do this.


The Mysterious Old Man appears.

Mysterious Old Man
Tell the FBI to stand down.
If they run in there, they'll all get killed.
You must order them to stop.


The Baugh pulls out a weapon on the Mysterious Old Man.

The Baugh
I'm getting sick of your riddles.
Who the fuck are you and what do you want?


Mysterious Old Man
I want what's best for us all.
The survival of mankind.
And if you want to come out of this alive,
you must listen to me.


Detective Tai
Look, I don't know who all these extra bodies are,
but there's too many cooks in the goddamn kitchen.
Take this guy for example.
Who is this muscle bound, roided up freak?


Dave Batista
What'd you say to me?
I'll break your skinny ass in half.


Coach Justin
Hey! He's my friend and I brought him in.
He can help us.

Detective Tai
And you... what are you supposed to help us with?
You're 1-10  and you gave up after Week 3.
What are you gonna do? Throw some dodgeballs,
and that'll save the day? Give me a fucking break.


The Baugh
Enough!
Whatever team you claim, whatever storyline you're from.
This is your storyline now.
It's all of our storylines...
You're no longer an Average Justin, you're no longer a SCGD.
No longer a Mustang.
We're the goddamn West Coast Cousins.


The Baugh
And we've got to come together.
So here's the plan.
We draw him in, 
pin him down, layeth the smackthdown on that piece of trash.
Grab that gauntlet off his hand, shine that sumbitch up real nice,
turn it sideways and stick it straight up his candy ass!
Let's end this once and for all.
Now do you smell what The Baugh is cooking?


WEST COAST COUSINS:
FANTASY WAR

Episode Twelve - No Way Out


Jim Ross
Jim Ross alongside Jerry "The King" Lawyer,
as we welcome you to another edition of Wednesday Night Preview.
Folks, we're in final stretch in the WCC.
Only one playoff spot has been secured.
And with 8 remaining Fantasy Managers fighting for the final 5 spots,
each matchup has been magnified in the final weeks of the regular season, King.

King
That's right, JR.
It's a wide open race between 2nd place and 8th place.
It's anybody's game and it's time to get to work.
And we're about to see one of those competitors
fighting for one of the spots right now!
When CM PUP takes on Big E. Langston in singles competition.

Singles Match
Big E. Langston vs. CM PUP


Jim Ross
After suffering a devastating loss in Week 11,
CM PUP finds himself on the bottom in the playoff standings.
A crucial match up this Sunday at No Way Out,
but first, he's got his hands full with Big E.


King
Now we're going to see if The Best in the League
has what it takes to be the best in the league.
Does he have any more tricks up his sleeve, JR?


Jim Ross
And like a hawk eyeing his prey,
CM PUP sizing up Big E as he goes for a high risk maneuver!


GTS! 1-2-3!

Winner via Pinfall:
CM PUP


Justin Roberts
And the winner of this match...
KENNNNNNY OMEEEEEEGAAAAA!


CM PUP snaps at the announcement.

CM PUP
What did you just call me?
You disrespectful piece of shit. Say that again!

Justin Roberts
I-I'm sorry.. what?

CM PUP
Do your job!
How hard is it to get the right name?


Jim Ross
CM PUP seems to have taken exception to Justin Robert's announcement.
I'm not sure what that's all about.

We return to Preview with John Seana
addressing the WCC Universe ahead of No Way Out.

John Seana
Earlier tonight, I was informed by the League Commissioner,
that this Sunday at No Way Out..
my opponent is none other than "The Fiend" Minh Wyatt.

*Crowd Cheers*


John Seana
At this stage of the season, I've already clinched a playoff spot,
and I've got that elusive first round bye.
My ticket to FantasyMania is booked and I'm ready to go.
Minh Wyatt on the other hand, has been mathematically
eliminated from playoff contention.
But that doesn't make him any less dangerous.
That doesn't mean that all his work this season,
has been for nothing.
Minh Wyatt has nothing to play for, nothing to lose.
Which is the exact reason, he is so dangerous.


John Seana
You see, my sole focus this season has been 
winning the League Championship.
And 2 weeks away from the big show,
 I'm considered by many as the betting favorite to be the last one standing.
Rest assured, my focus remains on becoming League Champion.
My focus, is defending that title against Donald Trump,
and securing the future for all.
But before I do that, there's just one little itch that I've got to scratch.
There's something that's been bothering me all season.
And now, I have an opportunity to end all of this madness.


John Seana
I've got an opportunity to put an end to The Fiend!
We've seen it all season long, Minh Wyatt has been a  plague on this league.
Minh Wyatt is a virus...
His influence and power has been haunting this league
since the first time we heard the Firefly Funhouse theme song.
I know the danger that Minh Wyatt possesses.
I know I have my hands full before I head to FantasyMania.
And I have been told by the League Officials,
that Minh Wyatt will only accept this match on one condition.
He wants to challenge me in a Firefly Funhouse Match.


John Seana
And I know what you're thinking.
What the hell is a Firefly Funhouse Match?
I was thinking the same thing.
Everyone I ask, doesn't seem to know exactly what a Firefly Funhouse Match is.
But everyone that I have talked to,
has also warned me against taking this match.
Whatever it is, it's got to be dangerous.
It's an Away Game, playing on his terms,
on his home field.


John Seana
And to everyone that has told me not to accept the match...
I say this...
It doesn't matter what a Firefly Funhouse Match is.
The only thing that matters is putting a stop to The Fiend.
It doesn't matter if I'm playing an Away Game or a Home Game.
Playing on planet Earth or planet Juniper!
As long as The Fiend will be there, so will I.
Minh, I will play on any terms that you want.
If I have to play in your own world, then so be it.
Minh Wyatt, I accept your challenge!

*Crowd Cheers*


Ramblin' Rabbit
John Seana! Dude, I'm so excited for you!
After he's done with you, you're gonna play with us forever!
.... forever!


Huskus the Pig
Forever!


Mercy the Buzzard
FOREVER!

Abby the Witch
FOREVER!


The lights begin to malfunction, shutting off.


The lights return as an ominous red light flashes throughout the arena.


John Seana turns his attention to his opponent.


The Fiend appears, staring back at Seana.


The camera pans back and forth between Seana and Wyatt.


Minh Wyatt
LET ME IN!

Back from commercial break,
we see Rockson Reigns resting backstage.


Dolph Riggler
Hey Reigns!
What the hell was that?


Rockson Reigns
What was that?
It's called saving your sorry ass and keeping our playoff hopes alive.

Dolph Riggler
Saving our playoff hopes?
Let me make one thing perfectly clear, Reigns.
I brought you in as an insurance policy.
When FantasyMania comes, it's gonna be me playing in those games.
And you want to know why?
It's because I'm Mr. FantasyMania and that's what I do best.


Dolph Riggler
I told you to stand down.
I told the entire WCC Universe that 
I could beat Kevin Owens on my own
and that's exactly what I was gonna do before you showed up.

Rockson Reigns
You should be thanking me, Dolph.
Because of me, we've won 5 straight.
Because of me, we have a shot at FantasyMania.
And if you want us to win the League Championship,
then you'll need me to play at FantasyMania. Believe that.


Dolph Riggler
No, you listen to me. I'm in charge here.


Rockson Reigns places his hand over Riggler's shoulder.

Rockson Reigns
Do you feel in charge?

Dolph Riggler
..I've paid you a small fortune.


Rockson Reigns
And this gives you power over me?
Dolph, you shouldn't worry.
You're still the man, you just happened to come across The Big Dog.


Dolph Riggler watches as Rockson Reigns walks away.


Back in the ring,
Chris Vinson holds the AFW Championship in the air.
Despite being eliminated from playoff contention,
Le Champion still carries himself like a champion.


Chris Vinson
You see this? This is the AFW Championship.
And as long as I am AFW Champion,
I am more of a winner than any of you losers sitting in attendance!

*Crowd Boos*

Chris Vinson
And while I won't be going to FantasyMania,
I'm still a champion.
The King of the Consolations!


Chris Vinson
And since I am King of the Consolations,
it's time to prove my worth.
So what I have here is a list of stupid idiots
who have wronged me this season.
And at the top of the list, Vic Moxley.
I know we talk about AFW comradery, but forget all of that.
In Week 1, I invited this stupid idiot to join the Inner Circle,
but instead, he wasted a perfectly good bottle of bubbly,
and smashed it across my face!

*Crowd Cheers*


Chris Vinson
And do you want to know what happens,
when you cross me Vic? Do ya?
I'll tell you what happens.
Because while my season ended last night,
your season will end his Sunday at No Way Out!
I'm gonna put an end to your stupid season,
and to show you I mean business...
I am putting the AFW Championship on the line!

Jim Ross
Oh my! What a statement by Vinson.


King
Vic Moxley wasting no time!
He's got a steel chair in hand!
And he looks to be taking on the entire Inner Circle!
This isn't smart, JR.


Jim Rosss
Smart or not, Vic Moxley like an uncaged animal,
taking out members of the Inner Circle!


King
But the numbers catching up to Moxley.
I told you it wasn't smart, JR.
Look at this stupid idiot.
No wonder he's the least successful member of The Shield.

Jim Ross
The Inner Circle, running a damn marathon
on Vic Moxley's body.
Come on, that's enough!


King
I don't think they're done, JR.


Jim Ross
What's this now?
The Inner Circle holding Vic Moxley down.
And what's that Vinson has right there?

King
It's Vinson's pen, JR!
From The List of Vinson!


Jim Ross
Oh for God's sake!
What he's doing?!
He's gonna poke someone's eye out!
Don't do it, damnit! My God, don't do it!

King
Aaah!! He did it, JR!


Jim Ross
MY GOD! HE DID IT!
THE SON OF A BITCH DID IT!
Vinson may have done irreparable damage to Moxley's right eye.
Someone get medical attention out here!


Chris Vinson
Bitch! I'll see you Sunday!
Hopefully you can see me.


Jim Ross
This is sick. Absolutely stunning.
What kind of human being can do that to another man?
And you call yourself a champion?
This has gone beyond personal between these two Superstars.

Backstage, CM PUP is packing his bags,
preparing to leave the arena.


Kenny Omega walks in.

Kenny Omega
And the winner of this match...
KENNNNNNY OMEEEEEEGAAAAAA!
Doesn't that have a much nicer ring to it?


CM PUP
What the fuck is going on?
Everyone tonight has been acting strange around me.
Calling me by the wrong name, walking around on egg shells.
It's as if people think that I'm you.

Kenny Omega
I think you know why that is.


CM PUP
No, I don't.
Why do people think I'm you?

Kenny Omega
You know...
Why would someone possibly confuse you with me?


CM PUP
Tama Tonga, Bad Luck Fale, Yujiro Takahashi,
The Young Bucks. We are The Bullet Club!
Do not fuck with us.


Kenny Omega
You've got it.

CM PUP
....no

Kenny Omega
Say it.


CM PUP
...because, we're the same person.

Kenny Omega
Muahahaha... that's right.


CM PUP
We are the all singing, all dancing crap of the world.



CM PUP
I don't understand...

Kenny Omega
You were looking for a way to change your life,
you could not do this on your own.
After your failures in the UFC,
you couldn't simply come crawling back to the WCC.
You had to re-invent yourself.
You traveled the world in search of yourself.
Wrestling overseas in New Japan,
breaking Dave Meltzer's rating system.
Rebuilding your own self-confidence,
and reaffirming to yourself
that you're still the best in the world.
All the ways that you wish you could be, that's me.


Kenny Omega
The Five Star Match Machine.
The Diamond Status Fantasy Manager.
The Best in the League.


Kenny Omega
IT'S CLOBBERIN' TIME!


CM PUP
No, that can't be.
I don't believe you.

Kenny Omega
Oh, you better believe it.
All the things I've done this season...
or should I say... all the things you've done.

CM PUP
Son of bitch...
You're telling me that I led the Bullet Club?
I brought on Trump's Army to the WCC?
This is all my fault.
I'm responsible for this madness...


Kenny Omega
That's right.
It's as I've always stated. You're not a babyface.
You're a heel and it's about time you came to grips with it.
Little by little, you're just letting yourself become...
Kenny Omega!


CM PUP
No, this is bullshit.
I'm not listening to you, you're insane.

Kenny Omega
No, you're insane!


CM PUP
I'm putting a stop to all of this.
I'm going to the The Baugh,
and I'm gonna to help him stop Donald Trump.

Kenny Omega
Oh, yes.... and I'm going to help you find him.
You see, that's the point.
You're going to have to choose which side you're really on.
Will you join your friends in the WCC and die?
Or will you join Donald Trump and live in his paradise?
You decide.
