Haley: Welcome back to Crusade!

Brynn: A few moments ago, we witnessed the debut of three new female superstars in Kana, Kairi Sane, and Io Shirai.

Haley: Don't have such a condescending tone, we just gained three of the best there is!

Brynn: Yeah, except that was the second time tonight that a finals-qualifying match was interrupted.

Haley: Who cares, Roxanne Holt moved on, and next up we'll confirm the third and final participant in this match, with a contest between Annabella Starrentile and Francesca May.

Brynn: Yep.

Alexander: Introducing first, from Blackpool, England...ANNAAABELLLAAA STAAAARRENTILLE!

Haley: Is this really a contest? Starrentile has this in the bag.

Brynn: But, last week Francesca had an amazing performance against Ivy Steel.

Haley: I'll give it to her, that match was good.

Alexander: And her opponent, from Las Vegas, Nevada...FRANCESCA MAYYY!!

Brynn: Our resident show-stealing highflyer.

Haley: She's great alright, but she has no chance against Starrentile.

Brynn: Did I ask?

The match began with a bang, with Starrentile running right through May with a TorpedBlackpool right out of the gate.

Haley: TORPEDBLACKPOOL! TORPEDBLACKPOOL!

Brynn: NO!!

Annabella hooked the leg of Francesca, but May just barely kicked out. Starrentile rolled her eyes and stood up, taunting the crowd and waiting for Francesca to get to her feet. When she did, Annabella kicked her in the stomach and lifted May into a power bomb position, hitting Francesca with a Release Powerbomb.

She pinned her right after, but May once again kicked out, obviously not wanting to lose this opportunity. Annabella got to her feet, obviously frustrated as she began arguing with the referee. Out of nowhere, Francesca caught Starrentile off guard by rolling her up for what was only a two count. As Annabella slowly recovered from the surprise, May climbed to the top rope as fast as possible, jumping and hitting Annabella with a Missile Dropkick.

After she hit the dropkick, with Annabella on the ground, Francesca climbed to the top rope, obviously about to go for a 450°. Before she could hit it, she stood up and began getting the crowd hyped up, only to be met by Starrentile with a wicked Superplex from the top rope.

Annabella quickly locked in a Sham Pain with a wide grin on her face, soon releasing and locking in her main submission move, Dead-Pool.

Within a matter of second after she locked in the submission, May tapped out.

Alexander: Here is your winner, and the final participant in the Triple Threat match for the inaugural NAO Women's Championship, ANNABELLA STARRRENTILEE!!

Haley: So, at Battlefield, it'll be Roxanne Holt VS Rose West VS Annabella Starrentile.

Brynn: That match is going to tear the fucking house down.

Haley: You're right. But next up we have match that's going to determine the final participant of the World Championship match, this match is Haru Kallin VS Maddox Casey.

Alexander: Introducing first, from Tokyo, Japan, accompanied to the ring by Erin Auditore...HARUUU KALLIN!!

Haley: Quite set on winning is Haru.

Brynn: Yeah, even convincing Erin Auditore to be in his corner for this match.

Haley: Well yeah, they are super close. Hopefully Maddox will have someone to oppose Erin in his corner.

Alexander: And his opponent, from Trenton, New Jersey, accompanied to the ring by Izabela Casey...MAAADDOX CAAASEYY!

Brynn: Maddox has his 17 year old sister Izabela to oppose Auditore!

Haley: Izabela isn't an official employee of NAO, not to mention she's underaged, I don't think this is legal!

Brynn: Well, obviously, Maddox doesn't give two shits.

Maddox gave Izabela a hug as he slid into the ring underneath the bottom ropes. The match began with Haru running at Maddox and hitting him with a clothesline out of the gate, smirking and flipping off Izabela, who glared at him from outside the ring. Kallin blew a kiss at her before Maddox grabbed him by the hair and pulled him straight off the ropes. He smirked and brushed off his shoulder before lifting Kallin and hitting him with a European Uppercut.

As Maddox went for a pin, Erin grabbed his foot and tripped him, making Casey fall flat on his ass. Izabela approached Auditore and started yelling at her before the referee separated the two. Izabela calmly returned to her corner and continued to watch her brother, who had quickly recovered and was now holding Haru in a sleeper hold. Kallin bent down backwards in an attempt to pin Maddox, but failed when Casey just broke the hold. Maddox stood up, bringing Kallin up with him, locking in a Casey Clutch.

Out of nowhere, Auditore slid a chair into the ring, which the referee saw and slid out, averting his eyes from the scene of Kallin tapping out, which gave Erin the chance to punch Casey in the nose, which caused him to break the hold. Auditore smirked and called Maddox a loser, only for Izabela to come out of nowhere and perform a Matrix on Erin.

Haley: Izabela just performed a Matrix on Auditore!

Brynn: SHE'S 17!!

Maddox stood up and hyped up the crowd as Haru got up, and performed a Matrix of his own.

Haley: It's over, Casey's going to the finals!

Maddox hooked the leg of Haru Kallin, gaining a three count and letting go, with Izabela sliding into the ring and giving her brother a hug.

Alexander: Here is your winner, MADDDOOX CAAASEYY!!

Brynn: So the World title match at Battlefield will be Maddox Casey VS Shawn Rey!

Haley: That's exciting! But next up is our main event, Chris Shadows VS Shawn Rey's Buddy, James Sharp.

Brynn: This match should be interesting, especially considering the factor of Sha-

Interrupting Brynn was a video appearing on the titantron of Chris Shadows having been laid out in his locker room with Shawn Rey and James Sharp standing over and looking down upon him. James looked up at the camera.

James: At Battlefield, I will have Chris Shadows in a prison rules match, and I will end his sorry excuse of a career.

After finishing his sentence, James smacked the camera out of the arms of the camera man and the screen went black.
