📍 Goodfellas Casino Arena, Las Vegas, Nevada
📆 17th August 2025
Ringside
The crowd is buzzing as the familiar, authoritative theme music of sVo COO Amy Page hits the speakers. She walks out onto the stage with a microphone in hand, a furious look on her face. She doesn’t wave to the crowd or smile. She gets into the ring and immediately begins to speak.
Amy Page: (Her voice is cold and seething with anger) “Last week… last week was a disgrace. A complete and utter disgrace. I don’t know what you were thinking, Alex Sterling, but let me tell you something… what I saw was not a ‘blockbuster performance’. What I saw was incompetence.”
The crowd jeers and boos as she paces the ring, gesturing wildly.
Amy Page: “You are the Las Vegas Champion. You are ‘Hollywood’s Favorite Villain’ , a walking movie star. And last week, you let your arrogance get the best of you. You embarrassed me! You embarrassed this company! I am the woman in charge of the day to day running of the sVo, and I will do whatever it takes to make sure she wins, and right now that means getting the best ratings for the sVo.”
She stops pacing and looks directly at the camera.
Amy Page: “But every single competitor in the ‘Roll the Dice’ Las Vegas Championship match has an opportunity tonight. Tonight, every one of you will be in action! I want to see you fight! I want to see you give me a show that the fans deserve! I want to see a performance worthy of an ‘Oscar’!”
She drops the microphone and stares into the camera as her music hits, her eyes burning with intensity. The commentators, Jeremiah Sloan and Julian Fiasco, begin to discuss the new matches for the night.
Jeremiah Sloan: “Wow! Amy Page is not happy tonight!”
Julian Fiasco: “She said it herself, she will do whatever it takes to get the best ratings for the sVo, and tonight she’s putting her money where her mouth is!”
Singles Match
Dave Miller (of The Southern Boys) vs. Scott Washington (of The Enforcers)
Backstage
The scene opens in the sVo’s dimly lit backstage gym. ‘The Bully’ Danny Domino is there, wearing black trunks and taped fists, relentlessly hitting a heavy bag. He is sweating and breathing heavily, a sneer on his face. He is a loud, arrogant, and cruel heel who thrives on intimidation.
He pauses for a moment, takes a swig from a water bottle, and walks towards a camera, wiping sweat from his brow.
Danny Domino: (His voice is a guttural sneer) “He’s not here tonight. The ‘Miami Maverick’ isn’t here! What, did he get himself banned from the building because he’s scared? Is that it? You’re hiding in Miami, scared to face the consequences of your big mouth! You think you can call me a coward, but you’re the one who got yourself kicked out of the arena to avoid a beating!”
He walks back to the heavy bag and begins hitting it again, each punch punctuated by his words.
Danny Domino: “You and your little fancy suits, your expensive shoes, your high-flying moves… that’s all just for show! That’s all just a mask to hide the fact that you’re a scared little boy! You’re all style and no substance. You think a spinning heel kick is going to save you?”
He stops hitting the bag and looks directly into the camera, his eyes burning with intensity.
Danny Domino: “At ‘Roll the Dice,’ there will be no running, no hiding, no place to go. There will be no fancy dance moves, no spinning kicks, and no ‘Miami Vice.’ There will only be the two of us, and I’m going to show you what a real man looks like. All your flash and all your flair won’t save you from a beating! The ‘Domino Effect’ is coming for you!”
He delivers one final, brutal punch to the heavy bag, knocking it off its chain as the scene fades to black.
Backstage
The scene opens in the backstage interview area, where Katie Smith is waiting with a microphone. The Malones, Frankie and Money, walk into the shot, both looking confident and ready to go.
Katie Smith: “I’m here with The Malones, who are on fire after scoring back-to-back singles victories against the International Tag Team Champions, The Sin City Scoundrels, last week. You two have all the momentum heading into ‘Roll the Dice’. How do you feel?”
Frankie Malone: “Katie, we feel great! For weeks, for months, the Sin City Scoundrels have been talking trash, calling themselves the best tag team in the sVo. But last week, we proved them wrong. They’re a joke! They’re two clowns who got lucky and now they’re hiding behind those titles!”
Money Malone: “That’s right, cousin! They got their little singles matches, and what happened? We beat them! We exposed them for what they really are: a couple of scumbags who can’t win a fair fight! They know we’re coming for them, and they know we’re going to take those titles!”
Frankie Malone: “At ‘Roll the Dice,’ we’re not just going to beat them. We’re going to expose them on the big stage. We’re going to show the whole world that the Sin City Scoundrels are nothing but a fluke. And when we’re done, we’re going to walk out with the International Heavyweight Tag Team Championships around our waists!”
The Malones both look directly into the camera, their expressions a mix of fire and unwavering confidence, as the scene fades out.
Non-Title Singles Match
Alex Sterling vs. Ricky Johnson
Backstage
The scene opens in a backstage hallway, just outside the gorilla position. The sounds of the crowd are a distant murmur. Alex Sterling, still in his gold-accented ring gear, stands over his opponent from the last match, Ricky Johnson, who is sprawled on the concrete floor. Sterling is kicking Johnson’s ribs, yelling down at him.
Alex Sterling: (Yelling, his voice dripping with venom) “You thought you could make me look bad? You thought you could steal my spotlight?! I’m the star! I’m the main event! You’re nothing! Nothing but a bit player in my movie!”
Sterling pulls Johnson up by his hair and prepares to deliver a final, vicious kick to his head.
Suddenly, ‘The Redeemer’ Jason Martel sprints into the shot, a look of righteous fury on his face. Sterling sees him coming and quickly retreats, grabbing his Las Vegas Championship belt and scurrying down the hallway, shouting over his shoulder.
Alex Sterling: “This isn’t over, Martel! You can’t save everyone!”
Martel ignores him, his focus entirely on the fallen Ricky Johnson. He kneels down beside him, his expression one of deep concern.
Jason Martel: “Ricky! Ricky, are you okay? Can you hear me?”
Martel gently helps Johnson to a seated position, putting a supportive arm around his back. Johnson is wincing in pain, clutching his ribs. Martel looks at the camera with a heroic and protective gaze, showing his true colors.
Jason Martel: (To the camera) “This is what happens when a coward gets scared. He gets desperate. He gets violent. But I’m going to make sure that at ‘Roll the Dice,’ there’s nowhere left for him to run.”
Martel helps a groaning Ricky Johnson to his feet and slowly guides him away, walking past the camera. The scene fades to black with Martel’s heroic action as the focus.
Ringside
The dark, menacing theme music of ‘Blood Money’ hits the speakers, and out walks Joe Barone, flanked by Junior Gambino and Nicky Columbo. The three men are dressed in sharp suits, looking like they mean business. They walk with a purpose to the ring, with Barone leading the way. They all slide into the ring, and Barone takes a microphone.
Joe Barone: (His voice is cold and confident) “Last week, I issued a challenge to my soldiers. I told them to go out there and get the job done. I told them to prove that the ‘Blood Money’ name still means something in the sVo. And what did they do? They delivered.”
He puts a hand on the shoulders of both Gambino and Columbo, who stand tall and proud beside him.
Joe Barone: “They went out there and they did exactly what I told them to do. They showed the world that a loss for one of us is a loss for all of us, and that a win for one of us is a win for all of us! This is what family looks like. This is what loyalty looks like.”
He turns his attention to the camera, his eyes burning with intensity.
Joe Barone: “Now, Kenneth D Williams, I’m talking to you. You think you’re a hero? You think you’re a ‘Human Highlight Reel’? You think you’re going to stop me from taking that championship? You’ve got another thing coming.”
He starts to pace the ring, his voice rising with every word.
Joe Barone: “At ‘Roll the Dice,’ your hero story comes to an end. This isn’t a fairytale. This is the Sanctioned Violence Organisation, and in this organisation, the toughest man, the smartest man, the most ruthless man, always wins. The age of the ‘Human Highlight Reel’ is over, and the era of ‘Blood Money’ begins!”
He stops pacing and looks directly into the camera, a sinister smile spreading across his face.
Joe Barone: “You will find out that you are nothing but a highlight, and I am the whole damn show. I’m going to take that sVo Championship, and I’m going to make sure you never forget the name Joe Barone.”
He holds the microphone out in front of him, and the crowd boos loudly as his music hits. Barone, Gambino, and Columbo stand in the center of the ring, looking ready for war.
Singles Match
Dan Williams (of The Southern Boys) vs. Rick Reid (of The Enforcers)
Backstage
The scene opens on a wide shot of a typical sVo locker room. The door is slightly ajar. A single duffle bag is sitting on a bench, and a couple of framed photos are propped up on a small table.
Suddenly, Michael Sexton and Lucas Sexton, The Sin City Scoundrels, sneak into the room, their International Heavyweight Tag Team Championship belts slung over their shoulders. They are each holding a can of black spray paint. They have a mischievous, cruel look on their faces.
Michael walks over to the duffle bag and begins to spray-paint a large “FLUKES” across it, laughing maniacally as he does. Lucas picks up one of the framed photos, which shows The Malones smiling with their families, and spray-paints a crude skull and crossbones over their faces.
Michael Sexton: (Laughing) “Look at them, Lucas! They think they can beat us? They’re nothing but a couple of wannabes!”
Lucas Sexton: (Gleefully spraying paint) “This is what happens when you mess with the champions! They’re going to come in here and find out that they’re a joke!”
They continue to deface the room, spray-painting more insults on the walls and on the framed photos. They high-five each other, their laughter echoing through the empty locker room. They grab their belts, give one last look at their handiwork, and run off, their cackles fading down the hallway as the scene fades to black.

The scene opens in the backstage interview area. Katie Smith is standing with a microphone, her expression serious. The sVo Champion, Kenneth D Williams, joins her, the sVo Championship belt draped over his shoulder. He is calm and composed, a stark contrast to the heated rhetoric of Joe Barone.
Katie Smith: “Champion, thank you for joining me. We just saw Joe Barone and his ‘Blood Money’ crew in the ring. He promised that the era of the ‘Human Highlight Reel’ is over and that he will become the new sVo Champion at ‘Roll the Dice.’ What’s your response to his claims?”
Kenneth D Williams: (He looks directly at the camera, his voice steady and respectful) “Joe Barone can say whatever he wants. He can make all the promises he wants. He can talk about eras beginning and eras ending. But none of that matters. Because this championship isn’t given to you by talking.”
Williams pats the championship belt.
Kenneth D Williams: “This title… this represents excellence. It represents fighting your way up from the bottom. This championship is earned in the ring, not in some back-room deal. It’s earned by putting your body on the line, by giving everything you have for the fans. That’s what I did to get here, and that’s what I’ll do to stay here.”
He looks back at Katie Smith, then returns his gaze to the camera, a look of fierce determination in his eyes.
Kenneth D Williams: “I know what I’m up against. I know Joe Barone is a vicious heel and he is the enforcer for ‘Blood Money’. This isn’t going to be an easy fight. This is going to be the fight of my life. But I’m ready for it. I’m ready for war. And I promise you this, to every single one of my fans: I will not disappoint you. The ‘Human Highlight Reel’ is here to stay.”
Williams gives a firm nod, his focus unwavering as the scene fades to black.
Singles Match
Jason Martel vs. Jacob Izaz (of Generation Joint)
Backstage
The scene opens as Frankie and Money Malone walk into their locker room, their expressions confident and upbeat after their backstage interview. They stop dead in their tracks, their smiles fading instantly as they take in the sight before them. Their duffle bag is spray-painted with “FLUKES,” crude skulls and crossbones have been drawn over their family photos, and insults are scrawled on the walls.
Frankie Malone slowly shakes his head, a look of profound disappointment on his face. He walks over to the table and picks up a framed photo of himself with his wife and kids, a heartbroken expression on his face.
Frankie Malone: (His voice is quiet, filled with sadness) “Look at this, Money. Look at what they did.”
Money Malone walks over to the duffle bag, his face a mask of disgust.
Money Malone: (His voice is a low growl) “Frankie, I can’t believe this. They have no class. No respect. Not for us, not for this business, and not for our families.”
Frankie puts the photo back down, his disappointment turning into a cold, hard resolve.
Frankie Malone: “They think this is funny. They think this is a game. They think this is going to get to us.”
Money Malone: “It’s not. It’s just fuel for the fire. It’s just more motivation to put them down.”
Frankie walks over and puts a hand on his cousin’s shoulder, looking directly at the camera.
Frankie Malone: “They don’t get it. This is not about spray paint. This is not about a locker room. This is about respect. At ‘Roll the Dice,’ we’re not just fighting for those championships anymore. We’re fighting to get revenge for this. We’re going to show them what happens when you cross The Malones.”
Money nods in agreement, a fierce determination in his eyes.
Money Malone: “They’ve crossed the line. They’ve gone too far. We’ll see them at the PPV. And they’re not going to be laughing then.”
The two men stand in their vandalized locker room, their disappointment now replaced with a fierce resolve. The scene fades to black as they stare down the camera, a clear promise of payback in their eyes.
Backstage
The scene opens in a backstage hallway. The music of ‘Human Highlight Reel’ Kenneth D Williams is faintly audible, signaling his entrance to the ring for the main event. Williams, sVo Championship belt over his shoulder, walks with a focused intensity, his eyes fixed on the path ahead.
As he turns a corner, he stops dead in his tracks. Standing in the middle of the hallway is Joe Barone. Barone is also completely still, his hands in his pockets, a stone-cold expression on his face.
The two men lock eyes.
No words are exchanged. No threats are made. The sounds of the crowd and Williams’s music seem to fade away, replaced by an unbearable silence between the two men. The air is thick with anticipation and animosity. Williams’s unwavering gaze shows his defiance, while Barone’s cold stare promises nothing but pain.
After a long, tense moment, Williams slowly takes a step forward, never breaking eye contact with Barone. Barone watches him pass, his head turning slightly to follow him. As Williams walks away, the camera holds on Barone’s face, a subtle, chilling smile forming on his lips.
The scene fades to black with the image of Barone’s sinister grin, leaving the audience to wonder what will happen when these two finally collide.
Main Event Non-Title Match
Kenneth D Williams vs. ‘Relentless’ Clam Idia
Ringside
The bell rings, and the crowd in the Goodfellas Casino Arena roars as Kenneth D Williams celebrates his hard-fought victory in the main event. Williams stands in the center of the ring, a victorious grin on his face, the sVo Championship belt held high above his head. He soaks in the adulation from the cheering fans, a true hero in the eyes of the sVo faithful.
The camera cuts away from the celebration in the ring and pans up to a luxury skybox high above the arena floor. Inside, Joe Barone is standing alone, looking down on the celebrating champion. His face is completely impassive, a blank slate that reveals no emotion. He isn’t clapping, he isn’t smiling, he isn’t frowning. He is simply watching, observing his prey from a distance.
The camera holds on Barone for a long moment, the silence of the skybox a stark contrast to the roar of the crowd below. Barone doesn’t move, doesn’t react. He just stares.
The scene cuts away from the skybox and a graphic appears on the screen.
