The team of Alexander Lyons and Vincent Lyons Jr, known as The Pride were successful in turning heads, and getting eyes on them in their OCW debut at Christmas Chaos. Furthermore, their head Lyoness Victoria shared her words of wisdom with the crowd showing off her prowess and leadership.
Unfortunately for The Pride, there are no tag team championships in OCW at the moment, which according to Victoria means they’ll have to set there eyes on one of the singles championships, and in order to do that, her boys would have to prove themselves in singles action as well as tag team.
Anyone familiar with The Lyons Den and it’s talents know that won’t be a problem for Vincent, or Alex,. Having both won singles gold, and tag team gold in their past companies.
And first up on the docket? The man who won the tag match for them. “The Feral Prince” Alexander Lyons, known to be the more, well feral one of the family.
—-------
The scene opens with The Pride shrouded in darkness and fog, in their usual stance with both boys flanking Victoria, who stands in the middle a proud smirk on her face, as she begins speaking
“Are you paying attention yet?” said Victoria, “Are you paying attention to the new foundation that has been laid out and presented to you? Have you grown to accept that we are the future. A new OCW needs new faces. We are the faces of the new, and improved OCW. Already improved just by our presence of course. Now it’s time to get serious. Alexander, step forward.”
Alexander Lyons nods, and takes a few steps forward.
“Axis is it?” Victoria said arrogantly “Fitting, because just as an axis is an imaginary line, your chances of victory against this man, my dear cousin Alex are also imaginary. So, let’s get to know Alex shall we? So you can understand the very real threat that you are up against.”
She glances over to Alex with a proud smile, before continuing.
“See, Alexander was kept from us, in exile. Because his father, my uncle Zachary Lyons was guilty of the sin of lust. He spent most of his time after shows with the rats, if you get what I mean. For all we know, he could have more brothers or sisters we don’t even know about yet. But it was because of this sin of lust, that his mother kept him from his family. Guilty of the sin of envy, she took Alex from us. He had to find his way to us, and at first he was filled with anger and resentment to Vincent and myself. Blaming us for not bringing him into the family business. But as he came understand, a child is not responsible for the sins of their father. Our own father Vincent Sr never got along with Uncle Zachary, due to his own pride, and his desire to be the head of our family." she said
Victoria shakes her head, as if disappointed.
“So, because of our fathers egos, and a mothers envy. Alex had to find his scrap and claw his way to us. But he found a new family, because he felt his true family had did him wrong. It was with this family, that he became a tag team champion, before his so called brother Tyson Sykes stabbed him and the rest of his family in the back.” Victoria explained ”This of course only made him stronger and he became a United Champion, the companies secondary championship to their world title. Then that company folded before he had a chance to really have a true singles run. The final United Champion, and do you know who stood beside him as that companies final world champion? A dear friend of The Pride that you all know as PWA United States Champion, Alexandra Calaway. See, we only associate with the very best, and Calaway is among them.”
Victoria keeps that shit eating smirk on her face, as she continues.
“Understand yet what you’re in for Axis?” she said, “Because all that scraping and clawing has allowed Alex to really tap into his primal instincts, and turned him into a vicious competitor, that you are in no way ready for. Alex? Any thoughts?"
She turns and looks over to Alex, as he takes a step forward, addressing the cameras for himself.
“Axis!!” he snarled, “You should heed what our head lioness is saying. Because I am coming for blood. Our message will not be silenced. We are the new foundation of this company, you need us to help clean his place up of it’s absolute filth. I mean you had some floozy giving out sex toys as presents. It’s no wonder this damn place fell apart. Be glad The Pride didn’t get any presents, because we would have shoved them right down your throat. We’re not here to play into anyones fetish bullshit, we are here to give OCW what it needs, change.”
Alexander exhales heavily, and brushes some of his long dark hair away from his face.
“I’m going to make an example out of you Axis.” Alexander continued, “We may be new faces round here, but we all know how to get the job done. All of us have held championships. Including our head lioness, who was so gracious as to allow Vincent and I to share the spotlight in this run. Oh you’ll get to know Vincent too, but right now I am the one that has been called into battle, and I am going to damn sure finish it with my hand held high.”
Alexander smiles an arrogant grin of his own, alongside the other two.
“This is the time of year when everyone talks about that new year, new me bullshit. Which is always total bullshit.” Alexander continued, “The Pride will not change, because we don’t need to. We are already who we want to be, and our eyes are already open. Perhaps Axis should try and make a change in himself, maybe then he would have won that championship in October. I promise you Axis, if you aren’t paying attention, if you aren’t listening, well I’ll have no problem letting you know first hand. We are all sinners after all, but Alexander Lyons is RIGHTEOUS IN WRATH.”
Alex grits his teeth and snarls at the camera, as Victoria clasps a hand on his shoulder. After a moment, he takes a step back next to Vincent.
“Be prepared Axis.” Victoria smirked, as the cameras fade to black.

The Lyons Den is a state of the art wrestling school located in Charlotte North Carolina. Started in 2003 by Vincent Lyons Sr and his two younger brothers Raymond Lyons and Zachary Lyons. Over the years, many would graduate and go on to try their luck across various companies. “Dragonborn” Keevee Kaiser was the first graduate, and would go on to have a very successful career before becoming the schools head trainer after his retirement.
In recent years, the school has seen a boom of success. After Vincent Sr’s passing in 2017, Kaiser took it upon himself to make sure The Lyons Den produced some of the best talent in the industry.
And for the past seven or so years, it’s been names like Vincent Lyons Jr in HWL, Cleo Phillips in PWS, as well as Alexander Lyons. Victoria Lyons in PWE, and even currently young Eddie Lyons finding his was in SCW.
So Coach Kaiser does his best to keep his students busy. OCW has been graced by the presence of The Pride. Vincent and Victoria who are twins and inseparable. But for the first time, they are now joined by their long lost cousin Alex, bringing their family closer together.
But not all is sunshine and rainbows with the family, or within The Lyons Den. The twins and Alex are at odds with Coach Kaiser, Cleo Phillips and their cousin Eddie. Vincent and Victoria in particular liked to act like they owned the place, and in some respect they did as their father started the whole deal, and Alex’s father Zachary was the current owner having taken over after the passing of his eldest brother.
“Well if it isn’t the weak little lion.” Victoria smirked approaching her cousin Eddie, with Vincent and Alex in tow. “Still embarrassing the family name? I hear you lost another one recently. Year not off to a good start?”
“Just leave me alone.” said Eddie, ”I don’t have time for the three of you.”
“You know, if you join us, you’ll be better off. Maybe then you’ll actually take home a championship instead of choking each and every time.” Victoria taunted, “We are stronger together after all.”
“I’m not like you.” Eddie said, shifting his eyes as to not look at Victoria, “You three are the ones making our family look bad with your fake woke bullshit.”
“Eddie, Eddie, Eddie.” Victoria said arrogantly, “We bring a message of hope, and change. We wish to educate and enlighten the future.”
“Yeah, and purge anyone who doesn’t fall in line with YOUR vision.” Eddie scoffed.
“Well, if they are strong enough, then they’ll be fine.” said Victoria, “It’s the weak who won’t survive, and who needs the weak anyway?”
“Its all about power with you Victoria.” said Eddie, “Ever since we were kids, you always had to be the one in control. You have those two behind you. You won’t have me.”
“Good ol’ honorable Eddie.” Victoria continued with her smug tone, “Your attachment to your honor is why you fail. You need to leave your precious honor in the dirt if you ever want to be more than a flash in the pan. I want you to watch New Years Massacre when it airs. So you can see Alex win his debut singles match and show you how it’s done and why he’s our favorite cousin.”
“Just get out of here okay!!” Eddie snarled standing up in Victoria's face, “LEAVE ME ALONE!”
“Seems the unbreakable one is cracking.” Victoria smirked,”Why must you hang onto this notion of honor so much?”
“Because someone in this family has to.” Eddie replied sternly, still in Victorias face, Vincent and Alex move to take a few steps forward, but Victoria waves them off.
“It’s fine. We’re done here.” said Victoria, “He’ll self destruct soon enough. C’mon boys, let’s get out of here.”
Victoria winks at Eddie, before she leaves the area, taking Vincent and Alex with her, and leaving cousin Eddie annoyed and frustrated. That was his problem to deal with in SCW. As far as OCW and The Pride were concerned, they had nowhere to go but up.
Unfortunately for The Pride, there are no tag team championships in OCW at the moment, which according to Victoria means they’ll have to set there eyes on one of the singles championships, and in order to do that, her boys would have to prove themselves in singles action as well as tag team.
