The clock will be ticking, hearts will be pounding, adrenaline will be pumping, and only the best of the best will survive! Who will be this year’s Hyrule Warrior?

For that matter, who will be the one they challenge? For the Princess of Hyrule and the Zora Prince are prepared to battle for the Undisputed HPW Triforce World Championship in a battle of multi-generational prodigies! Zelda’s reign has lasted since April 1st, a total of 213 days, but with fighting her past again and again, will she hold off the future? Or will Sidon turn the tides to start a new reign?

But there is still more gold on the line, and something wicked this way comes! And just like the undead, Hollywood ReDead returns for “his” Million Rupee Championship! But not only that, he wants his “pound of flesh” from The Gibdo of All Gibdos in the worst way possible. Will tonight be the last night for one of them as they let the monsters out on this Night of Despair? And to kick things off, The Ruler of Ruin is issuing an Open Challenge! He wants anyone willing and able to “climb Death Mountain” and come for the gold at the summit! Who will answer the call of Igos du Ikana? And who will simply #FallToRuin? HPW Clash of Fates starts now!

HPW Death Mountain Championship Open Challenge: Igos Du Ikana VS ???

Glutko CLUBS Riju away, then CLUBS Ashei, then CLUBS Torbevito. Glutko DECKS Torbevito, Torbevito goes to a corner, but Glutko SHOVES Riju and Ashei down again before storming over. Glutko grabs Torbevito by the head, and opens his mouth wide! Glutko BITES Torbevito’s forehead, even with the mask in the way!

The fans boo and Torbevito flails but there’s nothing that can be done about this, it’s a battle royal! But Ashei CHOP BLOCKS Glutko! Glutko lets Torbevito go as he drops to a knee! Torbevito goes up the corner, he reels Glutko in, and WHIRLPOOL DDTS! The fans fire up, but that unfortunately just makes Glutko deadweight again! Riju and Ashei are upset with Torbevito, and they struggle to drag Glutko off the mat. They get him on the ropes for now, and work to lift him by his legs. That is still a lot to ask, and the three drop Glutko so they can recover their strength. But then Torbevito grabs Ashei and THROWS her over to ELIMINATE her!

The fans boo and Riju is furious, but so is Ashei! Torbevito just smirks and shrugs. The countdown is back while refs keep Ashei from storming back in and going after Torbevito!

Great Fairy slumps down in the corner, Vaati jumps up to RANA Torbevito! Torbevito scrambles up while Vaati kips up. Hektan and Glutko go after them, but Vaati and Torbevito dodge and mule kick! Then they reel both men in for STEREO BASEMENT DDTS!

The fans cheer as Vaati and Torbevito kip up, and the two stare down with each other. But then Riju DOUBLE BULLDOGS them down! The fans cheer and Riju drags Torbevito up. Riju aims for the ropes, whips Torbevito, but he slides under the ropes! The fans are torn, but that is a clever move from Torbevito! But then Riju WRECKS him with a dropkick! Torbevito hits barriers, Riju is also safe going under the ropes, and she brings Torbevito around to RAM him into the apron. Riju then ENZIGIRIS, and she pushes him into the ring.

Fans are freaking out seeing that on the tron, but WHY is Majora attacking the King of Hyrule?! Majora shouts, “I’M IN CHARGE NOW! AND I SAY, DARK FORCES GO NOW! NOW! NOW!!”

The fans are still freaking out but then there’s a glitchy countdown with Majora’s mask aesthetic on it. It flashes 11, 12, and 13! Harlequin, Militron, and Ghirahim all make their way out to the ring! Is this what Majora meant? The remaining Dark Forces members in the match all going at once? Wait, is Majora no longer uWo?

Ghirahim swings, Link goes Matrix to dodge, and Ghirahim almost runs into Creeper! Ghirahim tells him to watch where he’s going, but then Ghirahim dodges Link, Creeper gets hit with the MASTER SWORD!

Ghirahim takes another swing but Link dodges, but Ghirahim ducks the Hook Shot! Link ENZIGIRIS Ghirahim and he tumbles away! Creeper sputters back to his feet, Harlequin TOSSES him out to ELIMINATE him! Harlequin celebrates his accomplishment, then hides behind Militron.

Fin Balure, Bad Croc Scaly & Ruto all enter together, and Torbevito is so relieved to have reinforcements! Link, Yunobo, Thunderbird and Donny back up to corners as the factions take literal sides.

Arrow Club stands on the ramp side of the ring, camera left. Dark Forces in front of commentary, camera right.

The fans chant “MEAT! MEAT! MEAT!” as Glutko and Scaly step up while the others all move aside. Then they look over to Yunobo just standing in the corner. Yunobo notices, looks a bit nervous, but then he works up the courage to puff out his chest. Yunobo steps up and now it is triple “MEAT! MEAT! MEAT!” But then everyone else swarms the three!

Ganon is pissed, but Gold Lynel locks onto Gold Bird as he storms down the ramp.

The fans are losing their minds as the two behemoths are now face to face in the ring. And they start throwing big haymakers! The fans are thunderous, “This is Awesome!” as the two brawl fast and furious! Gold Bird gets the edge, then whips, but Lynel reverses! Gold Bird SPEARS Lynel down!!

Link & Kage DOUBLE SUPLEX Ganon up and out, but he holds on! GANON BRINGS THEM WITH HIM!! They all hit the floor!! What does this mean?!? The fans are all very confused, as are Ganon, Kage and Link, but they’re also a lot more upset than the fans! They demand the refs to figure this out, and they consult with Tiger Sahasrahla and King Foolyere. Zelda is still backstage, too, learning about this development at the same time. The instant replay shows the timing of all three men hitting the ground is so insanely close. Ganon says the other two had to have hit first! At least one of them! Kage and Link argue that Ganon should’ve hit first!

Ganon shoves Link, Link shoves back, and oddly Kage joins Link in getting in Ganon’s face! They start throwing hands, then the Dark Forces, who are still lingering, get involved! But so do Riju, Yunobo and Thunderbird! It’s a massive brawl again, refs and security rush in, but fans want to “LET THEM FIGHT! LET THEM FIGHT!” This chaotic finish has only left us with more questions! But the one that matters most is: How is HPW going to handle this?

My Thoughts:

Wow, I did not think I would go into overtime working on this one. Something like this hasn’t happened in a long time, and that other time was just because my health was really bad. But I also wanted to make sure this was a great Clash of Fates, and the idea for a wild and chaotic Hyrule Warriors Royal Rumble came to me as time was running out. I wanted to make sure all the faction warfare worked out. It was still different than how I intended but I like where we ended up.
