Welcome to Gaia! ::

It's not hard living inside of a drum
It's not bad bad bad bad
Let's live our lives on the inside of a drum eh
Eh eh eh eh

Drumlife by Brandy hits the PA as Zarya steps out on the stage, and with a large silver cannon in her hand, clearly only for the pyro. Around her waist is the GWA Women's championship

It was your eyes that gave you up through that stupid disguise
You tryna hide behind that drink and you almost slipped by
I see you there sophisticated ignoring the beat
Your mouth might be closed
But baby listen to your heart and its screaming

"Making her way to the ring, from St. Louis Missouri, she is the GWA Women's champion, Zarya, Damone!"

Zarya points off to the left of the stage and fires off several shots of multicolored pyro. She then turns to the right and does the same, the crowd now booing her loudly

You're one of us
One of those beautiful fools you are
You're one of us
You were born in it so you should live in it

Zarya leaves the cannon on the stage and heads to the ring.

Live in a drum whoa
You'll never be in it alone
If you lived in a drum whoa
Right now you'll already be home
Live on live on
The drum life never gets old
Live on live on
The drum life keeps going on

Halfway down the ramp, she dashes down to the ring and slides inside, springing to her feet and heading across the ring to take up a mic while leaving the title belt on her shoulder. The music dies out and the champion gives it a few moments for the crowd to quiet down as well.

"Now, I'm sure you're all wondering what brings me out here tonight. And I assure you, it's not very complex. We're coming up on Hallowen Havoc. And like every other champion, I have to defend the gold. But the question becomes, who's going to challenge me? The girls around here haven't exactly been stepping up their game lately. It's almost as if once I took out Alicia inside hell in a cell, the rest are scared."

Boos ring out throughout the arena, briefly interrupting the champion.

"Of course, you'd all boo me. But it's true. I am the most dominant Women's champion in GWA history, now in my second reign. Alicia is done. So who's around that wants a shot? Who's actually brave enough to step into the ring with me at Halloween Havoc? Who wants to try to reach their dream?"

Zarya smirks, the last statement made in the most condescending manner possible.

"So, I'll just throw it out there. I'm issuing a challenge to any single female competitor in the back to step up and face me at Halloween Havoc for the GWA Women's championship. It doesn't matter which one of you steps up so long as one of you does."
