As we all know FCW is part of the WWE umbrella. One man didn't like that. This man was a new business man Andrew Johnson. Mr. Johnson had always been a wrestling fan and he wanted to always own a organization and he saw FCW.He went up to Vince McMahon and laid down lots of money and Vince accepted. What Vince didn't know was that Mr. Johnson put in the contract that every wrestler that was currently in FCW stayed there. Vince was irate but as we all know he didn't really like the young wrestlers so he let it go. Now with the company in hand Mr. Johnson is always looking for people to come into the company. He quickly signed Chris Hero, AJ Styles and Daniels. Also a couple stars that had made it to the big roster decided to come back to the new company. Now this is the story of FCW, trying to become a new company and the leader and wrestlers, so lets' get this going!

RIP William Christopher 'Cryonix' Stallings, you'll never be forgotten
Bow to Blue Print for the amazing Maryse Ouellet, Gabrielle Ignito, Kate Upton and Veronique banners
The show kicks off and we are shown the arena. The fans are going crazy, we see many signs and people just seem happy. We cut to the ring and we see a man standing there with a suit on. He has a huge smile on his face and he has a microphone in his hand. He then brings the microphone to his face and he begins to speak.
???: Well, many of you don’t know me but let me tell you who I am. I am the new owner of FCW Andrew Johnson!
The fans cheer and start saying thank you to him. He looks at the arena and all of the fans and smiles. He brings his hands up and has the fans quiet down.
Mr. Johnson: I want to tell you why I bought this company. I bought this company because I wanted to start something new here. I have been a fan of this company and I have sat where you people are sitting right now. I have seen these guys and gals wrestle and I have seen them putting their bodies on the line. Then I thought to myself while watching the “other company” why these guys and gals weren’t there. I said they need a time to shine they need to have people see them live and on TV, and best of all on Pay-per view!
The fans cheer louder when he says Pay-per view.
Mr. Johnson: That’s right every year we will have 6 pay-per views. Not 12 like other people do. That means more build up more intrigue. But the first pay per view is only a few weeks away. That pay per view is called Mans’ Downfall, now as we are so close to it, one of the matches is going to be a 20 man Royal Rumble type match with the winner get a title shot at the biggest Pay per view in the new look FCW called Up In The Air. Now…
All of the sudden Leo Kruger comes out and he has his title on his waist and he is shaking his head. He gets in the ring as the fans boo and he looks at Andrew.
Leo Kruger: Well first off Andrew…
Mr. Johnson: Actually Leo, it is Mr. Johnson to you.
Leo shakes his head.
Leo Kruger: Fine Mr. Johnson, and if it so please you it is the King of FCW to you when you address me.
Leo smiles as the fans boo him.
Mr. Johnson: No, I think Leo is better for you, but anyways why did you have to come out and interrupt me?
Leo Kruger: Well it is easy. I’m the champion here as you know. And the show should always start with me, because I am gold on the microphone and hell I’m gold in the ring, and as your wife told me last night I’m gold in bed.
Andrew looks at Leo and starts to fume but he lets it go.
Leo Kruger: So “Mr. Johnson” you should probably leave this ring so I can address my people. So I can hold my title high and all the girls can drink this in, because I’m the best FCW has to offer.
Leo starts to push Andrew out of the ring, Andrew gets out and Leo starts to speak again.
Leo Kruger: Now you know what is utter crap my fans, is that in a couple weeks there is a rumble to see who faces me, now I can’t take that. I need to know who my opponent is at every time because I’m the champion and I deserve that much respect!
Andrew then speaks again.
Mr. Johnson: Leo, you want to know who your opponent is?
Leo nods his head.
Mr. Johnson: Well tonight, you face this man. Don’t worry the title isn’t on the line…yet…
Leo waits for his opponent. No one comes out, so Leo turns around and is met by a kick. The man has a hood over his face. He then removes it and we see that it is AJ Styles. The fans go crazy as we go to our first commercial break.
Adam Bartowski: Here is our first match of the night, coming to the ring she is the FCW Divas Champion from El Paso, Texas Raquel Diaz!
Diaz comes to the ring with her title belt wrapped around her waist. The fans give her a pretty good pop as she slides into the ring waiting for her opponent.
Adam Bartowski: Her opponent from Union City, New Jersey AJ Lee!
Lee comes out to a huge pop. The fans chant “Welcome back.” She has a huge smile on her face as she gets into the ring. Diaz and Lee shake hands, the ref rings the bell and the match starts. Both women circle each other not wanting to make the first move. Diaz then makes the first move as she walks up to Lee and slaps her. Lee holds her hand up to her cheek and tries to bring a slap back but Diaz block and then picks Lee up and nails a scoop slam. Lee holds her back in pain as Diaz starts to play to the crowd. She waits for Lee to get up and when she does Diaz hits her with another scoop slam. This time she goes for a pin.

Lee kicks out. Diaz nods to the ref and she picks up Lee. She throws her off the ropes and she goes for a dropkick but Lee stops. Diaz then hits the mat, Lee picks her up by the hair, and throws her off the ropes and this time Lee hits a dropkick. Lee then picks her up again and throws her off the ropes one more time and tries to hit a Hurricarana she does and she goes into a pin.

Diaz kicks out. Lee can’t believe it as she looks at the ref, she starts to yell at him and when she does Diaz tries to hit a Gory Bomb but Lee blocks it when she is up in and hits another Hurricarana, again she goes for a pin.

Kick out again! Lee looks at Diaz and picks her up and goes for a scoop slam and she hits it. She then bounces off the ropes and tries a splash but Diaz moves. Lee holds her stomach in pain and when she gets up she is put in another Gory Bomb and this time Diaz hits it. Diaz though cannot make the cover right away as she is in pain. She finally crawls over and drapes and arm around Lee. The ref counts.
1…
2…
KICK OUT! Diaz can’t believe it she gets up and starts to nail kicks on Lee. Lee tries to cover up but she can’t. Diaz goes for another kick but Lee grabs her foot and throws her down. Lee slowly gets up and she waits for Diaz to get up when she does, Lee kicks her in the stomach and then bounces off the ropes and nails a Shining Wizard right to the face of Diaz. Diaz falls to the mat on her back and Lee goes for the cover.

Winner: AJ Lee
Lee smiles and raises her hand in victory. Diaz is holding her face and shaking her head. Lee walks backwards up the ramp pointing at Diaz and smiling. As the fans are giving the women a good applause for the match that they just put on.
We return from commercial break and Maria is back and she is standing with AJ Styles.
Maria: AJ, everyone was surprised when you came to FCW just a little bit ago. My question is why come here?
AJ Styles: Why Maria? It is simple, I wanted other people to see my skills. I wanted people to be exposed to me and that is what I am doing. I’m giving everyone a chance to see me. And tonight what a better way to start.
Maria: Very good, so now that you are facing the FCW Champion Leo Kruger do you think you can beat him?
AJ Styles: Who knows, but like I said it is a great way for me to start here in FCW. I get to go out there against the best to prove myself. If I beat Leo, tonight people will start saying that I deserve a shot at the title and guess what if…wait no I should say when I get a FCW title shot I will win that title, and I will become the new FCW Champion, and I will be a Champion that people can look up to.
Dean Ambrose vs. Richie Steamboat:
Ref: Rod Zapta
Adam Bartowski: Coming to the ring from Cincinnati, Ohio weighing in at 220 pounds Dean Ambrose!
Ambrose comes out to the ring and he has a sinister look on his face. The fans pretty much boo him as he slides into the ring. He hits every turnbuckle as the fans keep on booing him. He jumps down from the last turnbuckle and looks up the ramp.
Adam Bartowski: His opponent from Charlotte North Carolina, weighing in at 213 pounds Richie Steamboat!
Steamboat gets a pretty good cheer as he comes out alone. Dean Ambrose then quickly jumps out of the ring and goes to fight Steamboat. Ambrose throws him into the barricades, he then runs up and nails a running knee. The ref keeps on yelling at Dean to get him into the ring but it doesn’t seem like Ambrose cares. Ambrose then drags Steamboat to the ring and then he throws him against the steps. Ambrose smiles as he picks Steamboat up and slides him into the ring. He goes for a cover but the ref is reluctant to count. He finally does though.
1…
2…
Steamboat gets a shoulder up. Ambrose looks at the ref and slaps his hand together and the ref shows him two fingers. Ambrose then looks at Steamboat and he is pretty slow as he really hasn’t been able to get out of the gates. Ambrose then nails a huge knife edge chop that sends Steamboat to the mat. Ambrose then looks at Steamboat on the ground and he spits on him as the fans boo. The ref looks at Ambrose and warns him, but again it doesn’t seem like Ambrose cares. Ambrose picks Steamboat up and nails a Piledriver. Steamboats’ head bounces off the mat and Ambrose goes for a cover.
1…
2…
Steamboat lifts a shoulder. The fans start to chant for Steamboat and he gets up he trades a couple punches with Ambrose, and he gets the upper hand he throws him off the ropes and nails him with a dropkick. He then looks at the top rope and he jumps up to it. Steamboat waits for Ambrose to get up and when he does he goes for the Crossbody, Ambrose catches him though and nails him with a body slam. Ambrose then picks Steamboat up and calls for the Midnight Special and he hits it!
1…
2…
3… Winner: Dean Ambrose
Dean laughs and he looks at Steamboat. He then quickly picks him up, and is about to hit another Midnight Special when Husky Harris and Bo Rotundo come out. Ambrose drops Steamboat and slides out of the ring and through the crowd. Harris and Rotundo check on Steamboat, as we go to commercial.
When we come back from commercial we are in Andrew Johnsons’ office. There is a knock on the door and someone comes in. Andrew looks at the man and he gets up.
Mr. Johnson: How can I help you?
???: Well, my name is Kevin Hack…
Mr. Johnson: I know who you are. You are the man that won WWE Tough Enough!
The fans boo as Andrew talks about Tough Enough. Hackman smiles and nods his head.
Kevin Hackman: Yeah that’s right I wo…
Mr. Johnson: Congratulations, on that sir. But to be honest I could give a shitless. It was WWE Tough Enough not FCW Tough Enough, and to be honest Kevin, you aren’t tough enough for FCW. You are lucky as all hell that I actually kept you. I could have sent you down the road but I have a heart and I thought I might as well keep this piece of crap.
Kevin slams his hand on the desk.
Kevin Hackman: You are telling me I’m not tough enough?!!? Well to be honest I never even have had a shot so I haven’t been able to show you what I can do, so maybe you should give me that shot.
Andrew nods his head.
Mr. Johnson: Okay, fine. But not tonight, as we are pretty much booked and I can’t put you in a Main Event god forbid. So next week, you will have a match, and I will put a little bigger spot on the line. If you win Kevin you will be the first person to qualify for the Rumble match, but if you lose I hold the right to not to put you in that match is that clear?
Kevin Hackman: Crystal.
Kevin leaves the office as Andrew chuckles to himself and shakes his head.
Adam Bartowski: Coming to the ring from Gainesville, Georgia weighing in at 215 pounds. AJ Styles!
Styles comes out to a huge pop. He stands on top of the ramp and soaks it all in as he walks down to the ring. He waits for his opponent.
Adam Bartowski: His opponent he is the FCW Champion from Johnnesburg, South Africa weighing in at 205 pounds Leo Kruger!
Kruger gets huge boos as he walks out with his title on his shoulder. He just smiles as he walks down to the ring. He slides in and raises the title high. He then walks over to Styles and pushes him. AJ tries to push him back but Kruger brings the title back and is about to hit him with it when the ref grabs it from him. As the ref grabs it Styles gets Kruger into a roll up. The ref turns around and sees it. He counts.
1…
2…
Kick out by Kruger. Kruger then slides out of the ring and grabs his title and starts to walk up the ramp. He throws his hands up in the air as the ref starts to count him out. At 5, AJ slides out of the ring and grabs Kruger and brings him back to the ring. AJ slides him in first and then he slides in and when he does Kruger starts to kick him. The ref tries to pull Kruger back so AJ can get in the ring but Kruger won’t let him. The ref then starts to count and when he gets to 4 Kruger lets him go. Styles gets up and Kruger grabs him and throws him off the ropes he goes for a back body drop, Styles then lands on his feet. Kruger doesn’t know that so when he turns around he is met with a Pele Kick! Styles goes for a pin.
1…
2…
Kick out. Kruger again slides out and this time he grabs the FCW title. He slides into the ring and the ref tries to grab the title from him but he pushes the ref down and he nails Styles with the title. He then puts on the Dameon Device (Sharpshooter). Styles is screaming in pain when the ref calls for the bell. Kruger lets go of the hold and raises his hand high as he thinks he won. The ref then throws his arm down and walks over and raises the hand of Styles.
Winner by DQ: AJ Styles
Kruger looks at the ref and cannot believe it, he then looks at Styles and throws him out of the ring, he walks over to the ref and kicks him in the stomach and goes for the Dameon Driver and he hits it on the ref. The fans boo as Kruger grabs his title and walks out of the ring. Kruger gets in the back and Andrew is back there waiting for him.
Mr. Johnson: What the hell was that?!
Kruger keeps on walking past him and brushes his shoulder. Andrew grabs him and turns him around.
Mr. Johnson: If I had a half of a mind Kruger I would strip you of that title. But I’m not going to because that would be way to easy. Instead, I’m going to make a match for Mans’ Downfall, it is going to be you against AJ Styles for that title, in a ladder match.
The fans go crazy as Andrew walks off. Leo looks at his title and then looks at Andrew walking away and he shakes his head.
Adam Bartowski: The following match is for the FCW 15 Title! This match is a 15 minute time limit! The winner is the man who has the most pinfalls or submissions!
The fans go crazy as this announcement is made.
Adam Bartowski: Introducing first from Davenport Iowa, weighing in at 205 pounds he is the challenger Seth Rollins!
Rollins comes out and he is cheered loudly. He walks down to the ring and he has a big smile on his face. He slides into the ring and nails every turnbuckle.
Adam Bartowski: His opponent from Reno, Nevada weighing in at 252 pounds he is the FCW 15 Champion! Damien Sandow!
Sandow comes out and he has the title on his shoulder. He walks down to the ring holds the title high and gives it to the ref. The ref holds the title high and calls for the bell. Rollins offers a handshake but Sandow slaps it away. Rollins then nods his head and quickly starts to move around. Sandow circles Rollins as well, and both men go for a test of strength, Sandow starts to win it, but Rollins starts to fight back and as soon as he does that Sandow kicks him in the stomach. Sandow then turns to the crowd and raises his hands high, the fans boo him as Rollins comes up behind and gets him in a roll up.
1…

Kick out! Rollins then quickly gets up and nails him with a couple kicks. Rollins then quickly goes for a Avada Kedavra but Sandow ducks. Rollins then turns around and Sandow nails him with a DDT. He goes into a cover.
1…

Kick out by Rollins! Sandow looks at the ref but nods his head. He then puts Rollins in a headlock and starts to yell at him. The fans then start to cheer for Rollins and he starts to fight back. They both get on their feet but then Sandow picks Rollins up and nails a side slam and gets back into the headlock. He smiles as he starts to wrench the hold more and more. Rollins starts to kick his feet for the fans to get behind him once again. Again Rollins gets up and this time he fights the hold, he then gets enough momentum to throw Sandow off the ropes, Sandow hits a shoulder block though, Sandow bounces off the ropes but Rollins gets up and he jumps over Sandow, Sandow comes back and Rollins goes for the Avada Kedavra again but again Sandow ducks and this time he gets out of the ring. Sandow points to his head but he doesn’t see Rollins come over the top rope for a splash, at the last second though Sandow moves and Rollins nails the floor hard. Sandow then throws Rollins into the steps. The steps come dislodged. Sandow then puts Rollins leg on the bottom part of the steps. He then picks up the steps themselves and puts them on his leg. He gets in the ring and tells the ref to count.

He gets in the ring and Sandow picks him up and nails a scoop slam. Sandow then puts on the Idol Lock. Rollins screams in pain and tries to get to the ropes, he somehow reaches them and the ref starts to count, he gets to 4 and Sandow lets go of the hold. He thinks he has won so het starts to celebrate. Rollins gets up and this time he nails the Avada Kedavra Sandow falls to the mat hard and Rollins slowly gets into a cover.

The match has about 2 minutes left, when the third fall starts. Both men are on the ground and the ref starts to count them out. Rollins gets to his feet first, and he waits for Sandow, Sandow gets up and Rollins is about to nail him with a clothesline when Sandow moves the ref in front of him. Rollins nails the ref and can’t believe it. Sandow slides out of the ring and grabs a chair. He places it on the mat and nails Rollins with a DDT on it. Sandow then slaps the Idol Lock on him again. Rollins is passed out but the ref is out, Sandow gets up and starts to try and move the ref. As he is doing this a man from the crowd comes in. He grabs Sandow and he nails him with a DDT on the chair. The match has 15 seconds left when the man puts Rollins over Sandow. The man then gets the ref up and the ref sees Rollins on top.

As the ref counts to three the match ends, but he got the count in before. So he grabs the title and hands it to Rollins!
Winner and NEW FCW 15 Champion: Seth Rollins
Rollins looks at the title and can’t believe it. He looks up the ramp and sees a figure on top of the ramp he doesn’t know who it is as his head is hidden. The man nods his head and Rollins looks at the title once more as FCW goes off the air with the crowd cheering loudly.
1. Leo Kruger: He is the FCW Champion so he has to be on top right? Who cares it is our list so we are going to do what we want
2. AJ Styles: Well he made an impact. Yes, he won by DQ, but a victory is a victory.
3. Seth Rollins: He is the new FCW 15 Champion. Yes, he had help from some mystery guy, but he still has the title and that is all that matters on this list.
4. Dean Ambrose: He looked dominant. But he might have pissed off a stable. But that is fine, he always needs something to do right?
5. Brad Maddox and Briley Pierce: We know they didn’t do anything, but they are the Tag Champs. When you have the gold you’ll be ranked most of the time.
6. AJ Lee: Well she has to be pretty high because she beat the woman that has the Divas title now, she has a shot whenever she wants.
7. Raquel Diaz: She is the Divas’ Champion. Yes she lost, but still she has the gold.
8. Damien Sandow: Poor Damien. He lost his title. But we know he will be back and plus there is a mystery man running around. We are pretty sure he will find him and make him pay. Also we don’t think he is going to forget Seth Rollins.
9. ???: We have no idea who this man is? Do you?
10. Mr. Johnson: Okay, we know you are going to say we are trying to suck up. But that’s not the case, he is on this list once and only once, we mean it…
From the Desk of Mr. Johnson: We have found out the 6 PPV names and the months they will be held.
January: Mans’ Downfall (Royal Rumble)
March: Up In The Air (WrestleMania)
July: 4th of July Massacre (Will be held on the 4th of July)
Wow Drew, what an epic first episode and the character recap afterwards is a damn good idea, definitely gives a "cliffnotes" version of where all the characters are, I look forward to reading more of those as I do the matches. The matches were great as well, I especially liked AJ VS Shaul (or Raquel, I just hope they change that name), Ambrose VS Steamboat was a nice little back and forth, with great in ring chemistry captured in text. You did a great job, but my favorite match has to be the FCW 15 Title match, a hell of a main event to close out on. Btw, I am loving the addition of AJ Styles, I was a little unsure of him being in FCW at first but he adds an original touch to it that makes it your own and thats awesome. Great job, bud.
