Week 17 Recap: FantasyMania XVII Championship - Loud Play Justin vs. Return of the Mac


Week 13

Vincent 'Kang' McMahon
You're no martyr.
When faced with a loaded gun in your face, there's only one thought on your mind.
"What can I do to survive?"
You stand on your morals, but when push comes to shove, at the end of the day,
it's self-preservation above all else.


Vincent 'Kang' McMahon
Take this knife and plunge it into the neck of your fellow Fantasy Managers.
Do you have the courage to do what's necessary?
Or are you truly the martyr that everyone thinks you are?
When it's your life vs. their lives, what will you choose?


Vincent 'Kang' McMahon
So, what'll it be, Champ?

Tai "Freakin'" Rollins
The answer is no, Kang.
I'd rather die than be your slave.
If you think for one second that I'm about to play your little game...
If you think I'll be your errand boy, then you don't know Tai Rollins.
You want to kill these other Fantasy Managers...?
You want to plunge a knife through the necks of my fellow cousins, then do it yourself!


Vincent 'Kang' McMahon
The moral path... a martyr. I respect it, Tai.
But here's the thing about martyrs... they die.
HANSEN!


Lloyd Hansen
McMahon, what can I do for you?

Vincent 'Kang' McMahon
Take this variant away.

Lloyd Hansen
You want me to kill him?

Vincent 'Kang' McMahon
Not yet. Make him watch what happens next.


We flash forward to Week 16.

Week 16

Michael Cole
No! No! No! No...!
CURB STOMP ON VINCENT RHODES!
The Masked Man just stomped the hell out of Vincent!


Pat McAfee
The Masked Man is taking off his mask!


Tai "Freakin'" Rollins
IT'S ME VINCENT!

Michael Cole
Aww... son of a bitch!

Tai "Freakin'" Rollins
IT WAS ME ALL ALONG!


We cut backstage from the Kang Games
to find Lloyd Hansen alongside Tai Rollins.

Tai "Freakin'" Rollins
What the hell is this?

Lloyd Hansen
Haha... what?
You didn't think you were the only variant out there in the multiverse, did you?


The camera pans to reveal Tai Rollins bound by restraints.
He's not the same person as the Masked Man who has been terrorizing the West Coast Cousins.


Lloyd Hansen
If you won't fulfill McMahon's Vision, then we'll do it for you.
You think just because you won't do what we ask, that we still won't get our way?
It's not the first time I've set up one of my variants, certainly won't be the last either.

Tai "Freakin'" Rollins
You son of a bitch...


Narrator
We return to our eliminated Fantasy Managers and their discussion for rebellion.

John Seana
Hey, if we don't get our shit together and start working as a team...


The Alarm Bells goes off.


Kang's mercenaries along with an army of flying monkeys enter the room.


Vincent 'Kang' McMahon
Do I smell a coup?
I'm sorry, but the time for revolution is over.
John Seana, I hope you had fun playing the hero.
Now, witness the consequences of your little game.

John Seana
Wait... wait... wait-

Vincent 'Kang' McMahon
Open fire.


Kang's Army unloads a barrage of bullets at the eliminated managers.


The Scarlet Joyce suddenly appears, stopping the bullets in midair.



Scarlet Joyce
Run...


Kang's Army retreats as the eliminated managers look on, shocked.


CM PUP
Who the hell is that..? Is she with you, John?


John Seana
No, I don't know who she is.


Sandy Orton
Joyce...

CM PUP
You know her?


Scarlet Joyce
Vis.


WEST COAST KANG:
RISE OF THE CONQUEROR

FantasyMania XVII Championship:
Loud Play Justin vs. Return of the Mac


Michael Cole
We come to you live from Riyadh, Saudi Arabia
for the conclusion of the Kang Games!
Ladies and gentlemen, it is the Championship Round of FantasyMania XVII!


The pyros explode as we cut to the commentary table.


Michael Cole
Welcome on it, folks.
Michael Cole, Pat McAfee and Jerry 'The Kang' Lawler here to call the action.
Tonight, we will crown a new League Champion.
The Winner of the 2025 Kang Games!
Loud Play Justin and Return of the Mac, who will cement their name in the history books?
Since Wednesday's show, the Vegas lines have shifted.
With the addition of Brandon McManus and Patriots Defense,
according to Yahoo Projections, CFL is now the slight favorite heading into the Championship Match.
But with NFL games still to play, anything can happen at the conclusion of the Kang Games!


Ding! Ding! Ding!

Michael Cole
Justin Styles! Justin Styles has returned to the West Coast Cousins!


Vincent 'Kang' McMahon
After a four year absence from the West Coast Cousins,
Loud Play Justin came back to this Fantasy League with a vengeance.
Touring the independent scene, Justin Styles became truly phenomenal.


Vincent 'Kang' McMahon
From high flying maneuvers, to in-ring technical prowess,
Justin Styles took 2025 by storm.
Amon-Ra St. Brown, Travis Etienne, Saquon Barkley and Joe Burrow.
A Fantasy Team that has taken him to the very top of West Coast Cousins.


Vincent 'Kang' McMahon
But standing opposite of Justin is a rising global superstar.


Vincent 'Kang' McMahon
The Devil on another level.
Chris F'in Law!

CFL
BECAUSE I'M BETTER THAN YOU...
AND YOU KNOW IT!


Vincent 'Kang' McMahon
Led by the #1 Ranked Fantasy Player in the NFL, Josh Allen,
CFL has shocked the West Coast Cousins in a way that has never been done before.


Vincent 'Kang' McMahon
A single season turnaround that has him
one win away from becoming League Champion.
Puka Nacua, Christian McCaffrey, Javonte Williams and Josh Allen.


Vincent 'Kang' McMahon
The Devil and the Phenomenal One.
Equipped with aerial attacks, boxing and jiu jitsu,
these two Fantasy Managers will face their biggest test yet.


Vincent 'Kang' McMahon
Who wants it more?


Vincent 'Kang' McMahon
Who has what it takes....


Vincent 'Kang' McMahon
to be the winner of the Kang Games?



Michael Cole
Well folks, we are just moments away from our main event of FantasyMania XVII.
You still have time to put in your bets for the winner of the 2025 Kang Games.
Loud Play Justin vs. Return of the Mac.
The future is on the line.
We now go to Samantha Irvin for the Managerial Introductions. 

WCC Championship Match
[4] Loud Play Justin (9-5)
vs.
[3] Return of the Mac (9-5)


Samantha Irvin
The following contest is scheduled for one fall
and it is to determine the 2025 League Champion!

*Crowd Cheers*


*Justin Styles' Music Hits*


Samantha Irvin
INTRODUCING FIRST....
The #4 Ranked Fantasy Manager,
making his first FantasyMania Championship appearance,
holding a Professional FantasyMania record of 2 wins and 1 loss,
from San Francisco, California... THE PHENOMENAL...
LOUD PLAY JUUUUUSTIN!

*Crowd Cheers*


Michael Cole
And what a moment it is for Justin Styles.
This has been years in the making, but Justin Styles has finally made it to the big stage.
After years of being on the undercard, not taken seriously,
viewed as an inactive jobber, Justin Styles has shown to the entire world that he belongs.


Michael Cole
With a record of 9-5 in the regular season,
Justin Styles has been a consistent factory all season long.
Say what you want about his method of drafting, but you have to admit that it works.
A combination of ChatGPT, AI, intuition and a little bit of luck.
Justin Styles used analytics to put together his team
and it may be the beginnings of a new Fantasy Football strategy.
More and more, we're seeing analytics enter the world of sports.
Justin Styles has brought this strategy to the West Coast Cousins.

Pat McAfee
It's about working smarter, not harder.


Pat McAfee
On top of managing his workload as a nursing student,
Justin Styles has also managed his Fantasy Team with great efficiency.
Especially at the end of the year, no Fantasy Team is playing hotter right now.

Michael Cole
Will Justin be able to keep his momentum going into the final match of the season?
We are about to find out...


The lights turn out as the crowd erupts into cheers.


At the main stage, we see an orchestra appear.


The bassists play to the tune of CFL's theme music.


*CFL's Music Hits*


*Crowd Cheers*

Samantha Irvin
AND HIS OPPONENT...
The #3 Ranked Fantasy Manager,
also making his first FantasyMania Championship appearance,
holding a Professional FantasyMania record of 3 wins and 1 loss.
From San Francisco, California... THE DEVIL HIMSELF....
CHRIS F'IN' LAAAAAAAW!


Pat McAfee
A serious demeanor from CFL as he unmasks his devil's mask.
Chris looks to be all business tonight.

Michael Cole
These Fantasy Managers understand what's at stake.
They understand how difficult it is to get back to this stage,
a loss in the main event of FantasyMania is devastating.
Some never make it back to this stage,
this could be your only opportunity to win a League Championship.
Couple that with the fact that the winner could be ushering a new era,
there is a lot of pressure on these two Fantasy Managers.


Pat McAfee
The tension is palatable.
This is what it's all about!
I am on the edge of my seat guys!

Michael Cole
Justin Styles... CFL...
Who will be the next WCC League Champion?!


Ding! Ding! Ding!

Michael Cole
And here we go!
The bell rings and this Championship Match is underway!


The Thursday games get us started as Amon-Ra St. Brown scores 6.80.
A slow start as Brandon McManus matches with 6 points.


Jake Ferguson quickly gets in for a touchdown, 6.60 for Justin Styles.


But Javonte Williams gets in for the score. 11.30 for the Dallas running back.


But Styles able to trap CFL under the apron,
Deebo scores 9.30.


Patriots Defense scores 7 as CFL reverses the move.


Michael Cole
Wait a minute... what the hell is Josh Allen doing?!

Pat McAfee
He's got a drone, Cole!
You never know what you'll see here at FantasyMania!


Pat McAfee
Frog Splash from the top!
262 yards through the air for Josh Allen!

Michael Cole
1...2.. KICKOUT at 2!


Pat McAfee
Look at that hang time as we get a look at the replay...
these two are the definition of defying gravity!


Big boot the face!
Parker Washington goes off for 115 yards receiving.


Michael Cole
CFL goes for the cover again... 1...2.. KICKOUT by Styles!


*Bullet Club's Music Hits*


Pat McAfee
Wait a second... check this out!
THE BULLET CLUB IS HERE!
We saw them on Preview, but here is Kenny Omega flanked
alongside Travis Kelce and Trevor Lawrence!
We knew Justin Styles would bring reinforcements
for the Championship Match of FantasyMania!


Michael Cole
CFL doesn't look pleased, but here we go...


Council of Kangs
THIS IS AWESOME!
THIS IS AWESOME!
THIS IS AWESOME!


Pat McAfee
Here we go! Omega and CFL going at it, oh look out!
CFL with the Ric Flair strut!


Michael Cole
Back and forth they go now... CFL with the cover!
1-2... KICOUT!


Pat McAfee
A wild sequence of events between these two.


Harrison Butker goes for 10 as Omega hits a series of V-Triggers.


And now Joe Burrow goes for 20.40 through the air!


It's 50/50 as Justin Styles is back in it!


Michael Wilson for the touchdown! 14.90.


And now Chris Olave with 119 receiving yards and a touchdown!


But Stefon Diggs counters with 16.10 as CFL stops Justin's momentum.


10.90 for Hunter Henry, Styles is in trouble now!


Josh Allen finishes with 23.18, scoring 2 rushing touchdowns!


Michael Cole
Look at this... Josh Allen is gonna pull one out of Justin Styles' playbook.
The Styles Clash!


Michael Cole
Wait a minute, Justin is able to roll through though,
Philly Defense gives him 13 as Justin hits a Styles Clash of his own!


Michael Cole
A last ditch effort as Justin Styles is holding onto an 18 point lead
heading into Sunday Night Football.


Michael Cole
But CMC goes off for 24.10 as CFL lands the decisive blow!
Justin Styles is out cold!


Michael Cole
And now, adding insult to injury, Puka Nacua scores 10.70.
This one is over! Heat Seeker by CFL!


1-2-3!

Winner via Pinfall and NEW 2025 League Champion:
Return of the Mac


Michael Cole
CFL has done it! CFL has won the 2025 League Championship!


Pat McAfee
What a moment... CFL, Josh Allen, they've finally done it!
Chris F'in Law is World Champion of the West Coast Cousins!


Michael Cole
From last place to first place,
CFL has completed the biggest one season turnaround in League History.
He's broken the Circle of Champions.. and on top of that,
Chris F'in Law now becomes the youngest League Champion in West Coast Cousins history!
Congratulations to the Devil Himself... Chris Fuckin' Law!


Michael Cole
Meanwhile for Justin Styles, it is a tough pill to swallow.
The Cinderella Story comes to an end for the Phenomenal One.
Justin Styles has nothing to be ashamed of.
He's come a long way and far exceeded expectations this season.
Something tells me, this isn't the last we see of Justin Styles on this stage.
But his journey back to the top will have to continue next season.


Michael Cole
But for CFL, the celebration continues.
He called it this past week on Preview, this moment marks the coronation of our new Champion.
CFL is the winner of the Kang Games!
The future is now as CFL ushers in a new era here in the West Coast Cousins!


CFL
Cry about it all you want!
Cry about it, but I am a generational talent!
I am the 2025 League Champion...
and I'm better than you.. and you fuckin' know it!


CFL poses with his new Championship title as the Kang Games comes to a close.
Return of the Mac is on top of the West Coast Cousins!









































Narrator
As the season draws to a close, we cut to a boat rowing across the bay.


Narrator
We see a man sitting in the boat as it pulls to the shore.


Narrator
The man is revealed to be none other than Kang the Conqueror.
He's picked up by Justinmonger who takes him along for a ride.


Narrator
Kang cautiously observes his surroundings.
Taking note of his environment, he tosses an object to the ground.


It's Minhneto's helmet, clanking and rattling to a stop.


Justinmonger
So, what do you think?
Is it a candidate?

Kang the Conqueror
This will do...
This world will become my Final Universe.


Earth-415

Narrator
As the two continue their trek, they walk closer to the edge.
Just below, we see the skyline of the city.
It's Earth-415.


Kang the Conqueror
Justin.


Kang the Conqueror
We're here.

WEST COAST KANG:
THE RISE OF THE CONQUEROR














































































Saint Mary's Hospital


We return to Saint Mary's Hospital as the alarms are blaring.
We see a man enter the elevator carrying a child, the immune girl, Ellie.


The elevator opens to the garage floor,
the two escape into the parking garage to their getaway car.


Marlene
You can't save her.


Marlene
Even if you get her out of here, then what?
How long before she's torn to pieces by a pack of clickers?
Or murdered by raiders?

????
That ain't for you to decide.

Marlene
It's what she would want... and you know it.


Trumpets begin lightly playing to the theme of the Fantastic Four.

Marlene
Reed... you can still do the right thing here.
Even after everything you've done, we can still find a way.


The camera cuts back to the man, revealed to be Reed Richards.

Marlene
She won't feel a thing.


Earth-4


Reed stares at Ellie as he contemplates his decision.

Narrator
On one hand, Reed holds in his arms the cure for humanity.
On the other, through their shared journey, Ellie has become like a daughter to Reed.
A role that he has longed for since the loss of his daughter during outbreak day.


Reed stares back at Marlene.


Marlene
It's what she would want.
Please, Reed. Hand her over to me.
If not for me, do it for humanity.


We cut away to Reed Richards leaving the hospital.


As Reed drives away, we get a long shot on Reed's face.
He's overcome with emotion, the look of remorse is apparent.


As he continues to drive,
the audience is left in suspense, wondering about Ellie's fate.


































































Reed Richards will return in West Coast Cousins: THE KANG DYNASTY
