The Pre Show
The golden neon of the Goodfellas Casino Arena hums with an electric vibrancy as the Las Vegas Strip prepares for Showdown 254. Fans, still buzzing from the high-stakes drama of last week’s draws, pack the lobby in a sea of sVo merchandise, their cheers echoing off the Italian-marble architecture.
On the elevated broadcast podium, Katie Smith adjusts her earpiece, her face lit by the shimmering glare of the arena’s massive marquee behind her.
“Welcome to Showdown 254! I’m Katie Smith, and if you thought the fireworks ended with the New Year, you haven’t seen tonight’s card,” Smith says, her voice projecting over a group of fans chanting for the ‘Underdog’. “Tonight, we are headlined by two massive non-title clashes. The sVo Champion Carlos Vasquez faces the ‘Human Highlight Reel’ Kenneth D. Williams, and International Heavyweight Champion Colt Thompson steps into the ring with ‘The Wild West Warrior’ Jake Blackwood!”
Jeremiah Sloan and Julian Fiasco join her on the podium, looking out over the crowd.
“Jeremiah, we have to talk about that main event,” Katie says. “Carlos Vasquez is the man on top, but Kenneth D. Williams is a risk-taker who can end a match in a heartbeat”.
“You aren’t kidding, Katie,” Sloan replies, his tone analytical. “Vasquez is the ‘South Beach Sensation,’ but Williams is an elite high-flyer who lives for the big moment. If Ken hits that ‘Lights Out!’ knees-to-the-face maneuver, the sVo Champion might find himself looking at a very different 2026”.
“Please,” Fiasco sneers, leaning into the mic. “Vasquez has the suave, the charisma, and the gold. Williams is just a ‘stoner’ who’s going to get caught by a ‘Miami Vice Kick’ before he even knows what planet he’s on. It’s about dominance, and Vasquez is the king of this jungle right now”.
The camera pans to a group of fans holding “UNBREAKABLE” signs, but Katie shifts the focus to the tag team division.
“Tonight, we also see The Southern Boys—Dan Williams and Dave Miller—taking on the hometown favorites, the Sin City Scoundrels,” Katie notes.
“Dastardly and Dangerous,” Fiasco chuckles. “I love the Southern Boys’ attitude. They don’t care about tradition; they just want to break people. But the Sexton brothers, Michael and Lucas, they know every inch of this casino. They’re high-flyers who thrive on bending the rules right back at you. This is going to be a car wreck, and I’ve got a front-row seat”.
The lobby suddenly erupts in boos as Alex Sterling—‘Hollywood’s Favorite Villain’—strolls onto the set, adjusting his designer sunglasses.
“Katie, darling, please,” Sterling interrupts, ignoring Sloan and Fiasco. “Why are we talking about ‘Southern Boys’ when you have a block-buster performance scheduled? Tonight, I face Jay Adder. The ‘Icon’? Please. He’s a direct-to-video relic. Tonight is the sequel the fans actually want—a one-man show starring Box Office Gold. After I hit the ‘Box Office Smash,’ it’s ‘That’s a wrap’ for Jay”.
“Jay Adder is a 20-year legend, Alex,” Sloan counters sharply. “He’s a technical ring general. You might find that your ‘monologue’ gets cut short by a Sharpshooter”.
Sterling just scoffs, blows a kiss to the booing fans, and struts away toward the curtain.
“We also have two matches featuring the stars of tomorrow,” Smith adds, regaining control. “Jason Martel, the ‘Ace of Vegas,’ looks to bounce back against the grimy Clam Idia, and Victor Holland faces the sinister ‘Python’ Noah Rogan”.
“Rogan is a predator,” Sloan warns. “He’ll squeeze the life out of Holland if he gets that ‘Constriction’ sleeper hold locked in. But Victor has that ‘Skyfall’ 450 splash. It’s speed versus suffocation”.
The mood shifts as the screen behind the podium flashes the image of the International Heavyweight Champion. Colt Thompson appears in the locker room area via the arena’s high-definition LED screens.
“Jake Blackwood,” Thompson growls, his cowboy hat casting a shadow over his eyes. “You’re a ‘Wild West Warrior’? You’re a relic. I’m the ‘Texas Tyrant,’ and I didn’t come to Vegas to play fair. Tonight, I’m putting you in the ‘Lone Star Lock’ and reminding everyone that the only law in this ring is mine”.
“The stage is set,” Katie Smith says, her eyes gleaming with anticipation. “The stakes are higher than a New Year’s jackpot. sVo Showdown 254 starts right now!”

The neon glow of the Goodfellas Casino Arena feels a little more frantic tonight, the air thick with the scent of expensive cigars and the lingering adrenaline of a night that saw the sVo hierarchy shaken to its core. Katie Smith stands on the broadcast podium, her eyes wide as she looks into the camera, the fans behind her chanting following the night’s massive upset.
“Unbelievable. Truly unbelievable,” Katie begins, her voice trembling with the gravity of the evening. “I am joined by Jeremiah Sloan and Julian Fiasco. Gentlemen, we have just seen the International Heavyweight Champion fall in a non-title match, and the sVo Champion barely escape a ghost from his past.”
“The house took a massive hit tonight, Katie,” Sloan says, leaning over the desk. “Jake Blackwood just pulled off the upset of the year. Colt Thompson walked in here thinking he was the judge, jury, and executioner, but Blackwood fought like a man with nothing to lose. That ‘Wild West Warrior’ mentality just overrode the ‘Texas Tyrant’s’ ego.”
“It was a robbery!” Fiasco interjects, slamming his hand on the podium. “Thompson was dominant! He had the ‘Lone Star Lock’ nearly cinched, but Blackwood used those veteran instincts to catch him off guard. That 3.5-star battle proved one thing: the Champion is human, and the sharks in the sVo are starting to circle.”
“But speaking of Champions,” Katie continues, “Carlos Vasquez and Kenneth D. Williams just took us on a trip down memory lane. A four-star main event between two men who know each other better than anyone in this industry.”
“It was poetry in motion,” Sloan says. “Williams took to the skies with the ‘Lights Out,’ but Vasquez is the ‘South Beach Sensation’ for a reason. He anticipated the risk, caught Williams mid-air, and the ‘Miami Vice Kick’ was the exclamation point. Vasquez remains the king of the mountain, but KDW proved he still belongs in that top-tier conversation.”
The camera cuts to a replay of Jay Adder standing over a defeated Alex Sterling, the veteran ‘Icon’ looking as stoic as ever.
“And what about the ‘Box Office’ being closed?” Katie asks with a smirk. “Jay Adder didn’t need a script tonight; he just needed the Sharpshooter.”
“Sterling talked a big game, but Adder is a 20-year pro,” Sloan notes. “He let Sterling have his monologue, then he snapped on the submission and ended the show early. A quick 1.5-star lesson in humility for ‘Hollywood’s Favorite Villain’.”
“The rest of the card was just as volatile,” Katie adds. “Clam Idia picking up a huge three-star win over the ‘Ace’ Jason Martel, and the Sin City Scoundrels defending their home turf against the Southern Boys.”
“The Sexton brothers showed the Southern Boys that Las Vegas isn’t just about gambling; it’s about survival,” Fiasco admits begrudgingly. “And let’s not overlook Masafumi Satake—he looked like a machine tonight against Jacob Izaz. After losing his title to Thompson at the PPV, Satake is clearly on a path of destruction to get it back.”
“One man who found his path tonight was Noah Rogan,” Sloan adds. “He decimated Victor Holland. It wasn’t pretty—it was a 1.5-star mugging. The ‘Python’ has arrived, and the mid-card should be very, very afraid.”
“A night of dominance, a night of shocks, and a night where the Champions were pushed to the absolute limit,” Katie Smith says, gesturing to the arena where the ring crew is already beginning to dismantle the set. “The landscape of the sVo has shifted. For Jeremiah Sloan and Julian Fiasco, I’m Katie Smith. Goodnight from the Goodfellas Casino Arena!”
The screen fades to black as the sVo logo pulses one last time against a backdrop of falling playing cards.
