Smack Talkers, the Endless Battle Royal has taken a dramatic turn. Rabbit
Raw answered Riddle #2 -- "a drum" -- and weakened the Timekeeper's grip.
Furry Fupa was eliminated for real: no loop, no reset. The crowd realized
that answers are the key to breaking free.


RABBIT RAW: THE HARE WHO HOPPED AHEAD
-------------------------------------

Rabbit capitalized on his answer by delivering The Shaft and sending Furry
over the ropes. His agility and cunning make him a frontrunner, but now the
target is squarely on his back.


THE ENIGMA PHOENIX: EYES ON THE PRIZE
-------------------------------------

The Intercontinental Champion watched the riddle unfold. Now that the
Timekeeper's weakness is clear, Phoenix is more focused than ever. Is Phoenix
fighting to save the league, or to claim the Timekeeper's power?


HANK "THE BABE" WILLIAMS: A CHANGED MAN
----------------------------------------

Energized by his Christmas revelation and his search for the Timekeeper's
identity, Hank briefly teamed with Rabbit and delivered a Baseball Slide
Suplex to the Illusion Buster.


LUSCIOUS LOCKS: HAIR-RAISING TACTICS
------------------------------------

Wearing her clock necklace, Luscious uses enchanted hair to hold multiple
opponents at bay. "Tick-tock, Timekeeper. Your grip is slipping!" she taunts.


THE REST OF THE RING
--------------------

Alphabet Soup launches an A-E-I-O-U Assault on Santa Claws. Santa answers
with the Ho-Ho-Hammer and declares that the holiday is not over until he says
so. The Illusion Buster plots an elaborate comeback after Hank's suplex.

Drippy McGee and Busted Barbra double down on the Triad of Oddities' slippery
mayhem after FUPA Fumpa's elimination. Their strange Aelorian connection may
lead to the next answer -- or their downfall.


THE TIMEKEEPER'S SHADOW
-----------------------

The Timekeeper has gone silent, but runes at the ring's edge pulse faster.
Now that solving riddles can break the loop and make eliminations permanent,
the stakes have changed. Only one wrestler can emerge victorious and perhaps
free the Smack Talk Universe.

Will Rabbit's momentum carry him to the end? Will another riddle be solved?
Or will the Timekeeper have the last laugh? The clock is ticking.
