”The Shining Star” Anthony Royal v. Vin Halsted
EWF Old Glory Championship
Tournament Finals
September 12th, 2020
Imperial Insanity
  Tiffany Styles: Ladies and gentlemen the following contest is scheduled for one fall and is the Finals of the Empire Wrestling Federation Old Glory Championship Tournament!
"Say Hello" by POD blares over the PA system as Anthony Royal strolls onto the stage. He pauses at the top of the ramp and smirks, taking a moment to soak in boos before he begins walking to the ring, taking the time to jaw with and insult fans along the way. He enters the ring and goes to the nearest turnbuckle, glaring out into the crowd. He then heads to the middle of the ring and waits for the match to begin.
Tiffany Styles: Introducing first, hailing from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania…he is “The Shining Star” ANTHONY ROYAL!!
”Hail to the King” by Avenged Sevenfold hits and a blue strobe light flickers over the white smoke as Halsted rises up from the floor to the rampway while standing with his head down and hand-in-hand in front of his body when the first chord of “Hail to the King” by Avenged Sevenfold begins to play. He, then, rages forward with his arms spread and a massive yell from his abdomen “Hail to the King” as the line “Hail to the King” crescendos over the arena sound system. The blue strobe light fades as a cascading golden waterfall of fireworks flows from the top of the entrance to the rampway behind him, he saunters forward with a cocky strut and smirk on his face. He jumps onto the middle of the apron in front of the ring, wipes his feet, and jumps over the ropes with ease. He climbs the nearest corner first to stand in front of the crowd to bask in his glory as he stretches his arms with his fists clenched as the refrain of “Hail to the King” plays over again. The music fades as he climbs down, then he turns and smirks at his opponent at the start of the match.
Tiffany Styles: And his opponent, hailing from Chicago, Illinois, he is a member of The Outlawz…VIN HALSTED!!!
Vin and Anthony come to meet each other in the center of the ring, Anthony begins trash talking and Vin Halsted connects with an open palm smack. Vin tosses Anthony to the ropes and knocks Anthony down with a clothesline. Anthony rolls out of the ring holding his neck as the referee begins the count. The referee gets to four as Anthony circles around the ring and Vin comes out after him, Anthony slides back in the ring. Vin goes to slide back in behind him but Anthony hits him with a baseball slide. Anthony pulls himself to the top rope and springs off with a corkscrew plancha catching Vin on the outside.
Robert Spollen: Anthony Royal can certainly hang with some of the best high flyers in our industry.
Devin Hart: That's for sure. I'm torn as to who I should be cheering for, I love the attitude that both of these guys have!
Anthony begins to lay right hands to Vin´s face. The referee warns Anthony about the count as he reaches five so Anthony rolls in to break the count. Anthony goes back after Vin whipping him to the ring post. Vin pops backwards after his face strikes the post. Anthony jumps in the air and catches Vin with a cutter on the outside. Anthony pulls Vin up and rolls him in the ring at the count of three. Anthony pulls himself over the top and lands an elbowdrop on Vin. Anthony covers ...1 ...2 ...kickout!
Robert Spollen: Not taking anything away from Anthony Royal, but a win over Vin Halsted that quick would be a shocker for most athletes.
Devin Hart: Anthony Royal isn’t most athletes Robby, come on...he is The Shining Star of the EWF!
Anthony hits off of the ropes and connects with a dropkick to a Vin as Vin sits up. Anthony climbs to the top rope and goes for a moonsault but Vin gets his knees up. Anthony rolls over holding his gut. Vin gets to his feet and pulls up Anthony bringing him over with an overhead belly to belly suplex. Vin follows that up by pulling Anthony back up and tossing him with an Irish Whip to the corner. Vin runs after him and after Anthony hits the turnbuckle Vin comes in with a running clothesline
Robert Spollen: Vin Halsted using his momentum and the momentum of Anthony Royal to add some extra damage.
Devin Hart: Vin Halsted is a ring veteran he knows exactly what he’s doing.
Vin begins to punch at Anthony in the corner and then begins to drive his shoulder at Anthony’s ribs a few times. Anthony falls to the mat and Vin begins to choke him with his foot. The referee administers his count and Vin lets go at four. Vin pulls Anthony up and sends him to the ropes. Vin picks Anthony up and slams him down with a spinebuster. Vin hooks the leg …1 …2 …kickout! Vin gets to his feet and kicks Anthony in the ribs and then pulls Anthony up again. Vin locks in an abdominal stretch, the referee checks on Anthony as Vin lands punches to Anthony’s ribs while he’s in the hold. Vin reaches out and uses added leverage from the ropes. The referee notices and kicks Vin’s arm off of the rope, the shock forces Vin to let go of the hold.
Robert Spollen: And some people complain that our officials don’t do their job correctly.
Devin Hart: How dare you bring up Christopher Charles in such a negative way!
Vin begins to argue with the referee and Anthony hits a step up enziguri. Vin holds the back of his head when Anthony hops to the top rope and hits Vin with a missile dropkick. Anthony covers …1 …2 …kickout! Anthony gets to his feet and goes for a Royal Mutilation (Jumping STO) by Vin counters with a ura-nage. Vin covers …1 …2 …kickout!
Robert Spollen: Anthony Royal was one maneuver away from winning the championship.
Devin Hart: Yeah but Vin Halsted is one step ahead.
Vin steps out to the apron and waits for Anthony to get up, Vin pulls himself over the top and hits a sunset flip on Anthony …1 …2 …kickout! Vin goes for a leaping knee strike but Anthony gets out of the way. Vin turns around to a super kick from Anthony who falls on top of Vin for the cover …1 …2 …Vin rolls Anthony over to a pin …1 …2 …kickout!

Anthony is back to his feet as Vin gets up and Anthony hits him with a kick to the gut. Anthony lifts Vin up and drives him down with a piledriver. Anthony covers …1 …2 …kickout!
Robert Spollen: Anthony Royal can’t believe that Vin Halsted got out after that piledriver!
Devin Hart: I mean he did plant Vin Halsted right on the top of his head, but Halsted is one tough son of a bitch.
Anthony begins to slowly climb to the top rope. Vin gets himself up and climbs to the middle rope and strikes Anthony with a punch to the gut, followed by a headbutt. Vin lifts Anthony up and slams him down with the Fugheddaboutit Bomb (Top Rope Powerbomb). Halsted hooks the near leg …1 …2 …3!!!
