The neon lights of Seoul welcome viewers to ACW’s final show before Winter Discontent. And what a lead in it’s set to be – the 25,000 or so spectators in the arena make an astonishing sound as the cameras pan around, getting a good view of one of ACW’s biggest live audiences ever.

It’s time to get the show underway – but first, we must step back in time a little….

Segment: Back to roots (Credit: BK London)

Saturday December 10th 5:32AM

As the scene fades in from black we are once again introduced to the house of ACW International Champion BK London. The cameras are inside the house and the manage to get a close up of a suitcase on top of a bed, just then clothes begin to fly into the suitcase, filling it up. The camera pulls out and of course BK London is the culprit of all this clothes tossing. His wife Kiley enters the room and she just stares, she doesn't look like her normal self that we have seen on camera in ACW, she has seemed to have lost her glow.

Kiley: So, you’re really going through with this?

BK: Of course, I have to. Too much is on the line for me not to continue this Kiley. Over the past few months I have been on the biggest roll of my career and it has all been halted by this stupid injury. I've got to get back on my feet, I have to show everyone that nothing is going to stop BK London from kicking ass and taking names.

Kiley: I understand....but truly, not to be mean, this injury has been one of the best things to happen to us. I mean...over the past three weeks we have had time to be like a real family. Just Princess, You, and I, and these weeks that you were injured have been great to me. I know it's selfish, but

Kiley is holding back tears and a gulp can be heard by her as she leans on the wall on the doorway while folding her arms.

Kiley: ...I just want you to stay.

BK: I wish I could stay Kiley, I really wish I had the power to. I've loved each and every week that we spent together, but the ring is calling me. I watch ACW on TV and it's missing that factor, it's like there is a void and I have to fill it. You sure you don't want to come for just a few more weeks?

Kiley: As the ring is calling you back BK, I think home is where I will stay. I know it would be simple for me to just drop of Princess by my mother's again and we go off on trips around the world but my mom is getting old, I don't think she can deal with the stress of a little child running around the house. Plus, I want to see my baby grow up, and I can't do that in ACW. Need help zipping that bag?

The camera cuts back to BK London attempting to sit on the bag and zip it, struggling. Kiley walks over to the bag and she now sits on it at BK attempts to zip it. He finally gets the zip all around and Kiley hops off the suitcase. BK lightly lifts it off the bed and puts it on its wheels on the floor.

BK: Princess awake?

Kiley: No, she's asleep.

BK walks out into the hallway and makes his way into Princess' room softly and quietly, not trying to wake her. She walks toward her bed where she is lying inertly and he kisses her lightly on her forehead.

BK: Daddy loves you.

BK walks out picks up his suitcase and carries it downstairs where he meets Kiley on the porch and a yellow cab is seen in front of the house, ready to take him to the airport to Seoul, South Korea. He and Kiley stare at each other, they smile and embrace with a gentle kiss. BK walks down the steps and places his suitcase in the trunk of the car before entering the cab. He looks at Kiley from the cab and she waves goodbye softly as the car begins to move. BK takes one more look at the house that he established a family in before turning that corner. Now focused back on wrestling, he is ready to once again take the wrestling world by storm, but he will never forget his family who will always be in the back of his mind.

Match 1: Tornado vs. Vladimir w/ Mikhail (Credit: Hunter)

We return from the opening segment to find Philip already standing in the ring.

Philip: Ladies and gentlemen, this first match is scheduled for one fall. Introducing first, from Manchester, Tornado!

"40 Oz" hits the speakers as Tornado makes his way out to the ring with the audience cheering for him. He slides into the ring and poses on one of the turnbuckles, then hops down and awaits his opponent.

Philip: And his opponent, being accompanied by Mikhail, Vladimir Rasputin!

"Hymn to the USSR" hits the speakers as Vlad walks out with Mikhail holding a Soviet flag behind them. The fans maniacally boo him, but he continues on his merry way down the ramp until he slides into the ring and poses. Mikhail waves the flag outside of the ring, and Vlad salutes it before facing his opponent.

Bell Rings.

The two lock up in the center of the ring quickly and Vlad takes the advantage by taking down Tornado with a hip toss. He holds onto the arm and jumps up and locks his legs around Tornado's arm, getting him into a unique version of the armbar. Tornado quickly kips up with Vlad still attached to his arm, does a back flip, grabs Vlad, and hits him with a swift back drop. The two both get up and look at each other. Vlad scratches his chin, grinning, seeing that this will be a tad more difficult than expected. Tornado runs at Vlad for a clothesline, but Vlad ducks it and starts kicking Tornado in random places on his legs. He then does a full on spin kick to Tornado's chest and laughs as Tornado flies backward. Tornado rises and tries to get in a kick of his own, but Vlad grabs his foot and ducks another kick attempt. Tornado then whips himself back and grabs Vlad's head, then whips him over his head with a well-placed hurracanrana. He covers, but Vlad quickly kicks out. Tornado tries for an Axe kick, but Vlad moves out of the way and gets him into a head-scissors with leads into an arm drag. He attempts to lock in the armbar once again, but Tornado rolls through and jumps back for a Pele Kick. Vlad ducks this, then back flips and catches Tornado's head with his legs. He pulls him down and gets him into a pin, but Tornado quickly kicks out.

The two rise again and quickly take a breath to comprehend what just happened. Vlad then ends the break by punching Tornado in the side of the head and following through with a Northern Lights suplex pin. Tornado kicks out and kips up, then turns around and takes down Vlad with jumping swinging neckbreaker. He covers, but Vlad throws him off of him rather quickly. Tornado tries for a lariat, but Vlad grabs his arm and locks him into an armbar while they stay standing. Vlad trips Tornado, but Tornado just does a forward flip and catches his footing, then flips back again and uses his strength to throw Vlad over him, then reverse the armbar into an armbar of his own. Vlad quickly grabs the nearby rope and Tornado breaks the hold. Tornado waits for Vlad to rise, and once he does, he charges at the ropes and jumps off of them for a moonsault, but Tornado grabs him midair, throws him down into the reverse DDT position, and locks in the For the Union hold. Tornado attempts to battle out of it, then jumps up onto the nearby ropes and flips over, hitting Vlad with an asai DDT. He covers, but Vlad kicks out.

Tornado climbs up to the top turnbuckle and looks around carefully to make sure that Mikhail is nowhere to be found. Once satisfied, he leaps off the top turnbuckle and hits a missile dropkick onto the now standing Vlad. He doesn't remain standing for long, however, as he falls backward from the impact. Tornado covers again, but Vlad kicks out. Tornado then stands with his back to Vlad and waits from him to rise. Once he does, Tornado jumps at the ropes and attempts the Cyclone DDT, but Vlad catches him midair and brings him down with the Workers of the World. He covers, but Tornado kicks out yet again. Vlad then locks in a buffalo sleeper to try to get Tornado to tap, but Tornado is able to punch Vlad's head and break the hold. Tornado attempts a jumping Axe kick, but Vlad ducks and grabs Tornado's arms for the Iron Curtain. He spins him around, but Tornado pushes him away and once Vlad rebounds off the ropes he rolls him up only to have Vlad kick out.

Tornado tries for another kick, but Vlad grabs his foot and takes him down with a capture suplex. He then grabs Tornado's arms and goes for the Greetings from Moscow, only to have Tornado spring up and whip Vlad over his head. Vlad rises and Tornado dropkicks him back down, then lifts him up and leaps up for the Pele Kick. For the second time Vlad is able to duck, then he runs at the ropes and hits the kneeling Tornado with the Capitalist Crusher. He covers, but Tornado kicks once again. Vlad picks up Tornado and sets him up for the Siberian Express, but Tornado pushes him out of the way, turns around, and finally connects perfectly with the Pele Kick. Vlad flies off and hits the referee, who gets knocked down as any referee usually would. Tornado poses for the crowd, then climbs the top turnbuckle and signals for the Whirlwind. He is just about to leap off when all of a sudden Mikhail appears from out of nowhere and slams Tornado in the back with the Soviet flag. Tornado falls down into a sitting position on the top turnbuckle, then Vlad runs up and climbs the turnbuckle. He grins, and then hits a very powerful Siberian Express from the top rope just as the referee awakes! The ref counts and Vlad gets the inevitable pinfall.

Philip: Here is your winner, Vladimir Rasputin!

"Hymn to the USSR" hits the speakers again as Vlad slides out of the ring and Mikhail runs up to him. The two begin celebrating and waving the Soviet flag to an onslaught of boos from the audience. Tornado rises, clutching his head, and looks on as Vlad celebrates. Tornado simply shakes his head and slides out of the ring once Vlad departs. The fans cheer his talent, however, and Tornado raises his arms once more before disappearing behind the curtain.

Fade Out.

Segment: ‘Preemptive Strike’ (Credit: Kudo)

The camera zooms in backstage as Kudo signals for the cameraman to be quiet as he slowly approaches into what appears to be the shower room. It’s obvious that there is a wrestler taking a shower in the room as the sounds of water can be heard scattering across the room.
Kudo creeps up to and looks around the corner, making sure the curtain is pulled in front. The cameraman holds his position as after a few seconds, Kudo comes walking back out with a black and white mask and a sadistic smile on his face. Kudo hurriedly makes his way out of the room as the cameraman tries to keep him in view.
Suddenly though, the man in the shower begins to yell, “DONDE ESTA MI MASCARA??!!” as the cameraman takes his leave and cuts off the picture…

Match 2: Rawt vs. Rookie Monster (Credit: DD)

The action shows no sign of slowing down as Philip returns to announce match 2.

Philip: The following match is scheduled for one fall! Coming first to the ring, from Blackpool England…’The Force of Nature’ Danny Richards!

DOA by the Foo Fighters hits and Richards walks out, to a barrage of jeers and boos from the fans. Richards waits on the top of the ramp, as two lightning bolts hit the areas besides him before walking down to the ring. He slowly rolls under the bottom rope and jumps up to his feet, where he starts doing some stretches, waiting for his opponent.

Philip: And from Berlin, Germany, weighing at 300 lbs…he is the ACW Junior champion, Rawt!

Another One Bites The Dust hits and Rawt walks out to a chorus of boos and jeers from the fans. Gelale this time isn’t alongside him, but the Junior champion must still feel that his recent good run of late must help him as he enters the ring, taking his belt off. He hands it to a crew member on the outside, and Richards is all pumped up, and the two get ready to fight.

Bell Rings.

Richards grabs Rawt and attempts to whip him towards the ropes, but Rawt easily reverses it into one of his own. He takes Richards down with a huge scoop slam, and Richards slowly gets up to his feet, a little surprised at his opponent. Rawt throws him at the ropes again and tries to hit a clothesline, but Rookie manages to duck the move and plants Rawt with a clothesline of his own. Rookie lifts Rawt up and attempts to hit a suplex, but Rawt is too heavy, even for Danny Richards and Rawt reverses it into a suplex of his own. Rawt bounces off the ropes and goes for a Big Splash, but Richards manages to roll out of the way and Rawt hits the canvas. Richards feels that he may get the upper hand now, and lifts Rawt to his feet, forcing him into the turnbuckle. Richards bends down slightly and charges at Rawt with a headbutt to the shoulder, much like in the way Batista does. He does this two or three times more before stopping, and Rawt falls like a cut tree. Richards climbs the top rope and lets out a small grin, jumping and hitting a perfect elbow drop which is like a knife to the chest of the Junior Champion. Rookie hooks the leg but Rawt manages to kick out right before the third count. Richards looks rather annoyed as he lifts Rawt up, but the Junior champion fights back with some underhooks to the face. He throws Richards against the ropes and hits him with a huge big boot.

Rawt lifts Richards back up to his feet again and feigns an Irish Whip, hitting a powerful clothesline. Richards holds his chest, clearly in some pain as he manages to get back to his feet, but Rawt keeps fighting back. He lifts Richards up, and hits a side slam, and then points towards the turnbuckle. Rawt climbs it, signalling for the Rawt Shot (spear off ropes) and Richards gets to his feet, and stumbles right where Rawt wants him. Rawt jumps, but sensationally Richards catches him in between his legs, and has some struggle but manages to lift Rawt up onto his shoulders and give him the Rookie Bomb! The fans expect Richards to follow up with a pinfall here, but the move has clearly taken a lot out of the former Entertainment champion. He rests on the canvas, muttering something to himself and slowly manages to pull himself up, and drape an arm across the body of Rawt: 1……2……kickout by the Junior Champion. Richards rolls onto his back, annoyed that he’s failed to win the match but nonetheless refuses to give up. He gets up to his feet, and picks Rawt up. He throws Rawt at the ropes and hits him with a huge Richter Scale (Spinebuster). Richards bounces back up to his feet and taunts Rawt as he signals for the end of the match. He lifts a groggy Rawt to his feet and kicks him in the stomach, running back and hoping to hit the RooKO (RKO). However Rawt manages to evade the move, and hits Richards in the stomach, hitting the Bomb Drop! Rawt then covers the shoulders of Richards, and Richards stands no chance of kicking out as Rawt picks up the victory.

Philip: Here is your winner…Rawt!

Another One Bites The Dust hits again and Rawt leaves the ring, satisfied with his victory. He grabs the Junior title, holding it up high and pointing to it before he leaves the ring area. The referee in the ring checks Richards out and fortunately he manages to sit up, showing no signs of injury as we fade out.

Segment: What’s your pleasure?

The scene opens, as they so often do, in one of the backstage locker rooms. Judging by the mix of clothes lying around, it’s a temporary home to both male and female superstars, and this is confirmed as the camera moves to the left, to show Latino slipping on his ring boots ready for his upcoming match. Alicia is half watching him, and half watching the show on a portable tv; she’s in training wear, and it looks like she’s just come back from a session in the gym.

Alicia: So, do you know who this mystery team is that you’re facing tonight?

Latino: I don’t know, but I can make a damn good guess.

Alicia: Right… look, I’m not going to tell you how to fight your battles, but try to see the big picture, OK? There are enough people around here who want to enhance their reputations, you don’t need to turn friends into more enemies if you can avoid it.

Latino doesn’t comment, and Alicia takes the hint not to delve further.

Alicia: Victor, I’m sorry.

He pauses, and a slight drop in his shoulders indicates that he’s not really angry.

Latino: It’s not your fault. It’s just something that I have to handle in my own way.

Alicia nods, reassured by this. She glances at the TV, where a Winter Discontent trailer is airing. She sees a brief shot of Rena, and this draws a smile which Latino notices.

Latino: Looks like I’m not the only one with things to settle, anyway. You’re looking forward to this, aren’t you?

Alicia: Yes, I am. I’ve wanted to have a match with Rena for a long time now.

Latino gets a puzzled expression on his face as he adjusts his laces.

Latino: But I thought you hated her, especially after what she’s been up to lately.

Alicia: Oh, hate is such a strong word, Victor. I was extremely angry, that’s for sure. But after we talked, and I thought it over a little more, I managed to get past that kneejerk response. Rena pushed every single one of my buttons to get me fired up… and I’ve always vainly thought that I was above that sort of thing. I needed the wake up call she gave me.

Alicia stretches on the couch thoughtfully.

Alicia: You know what I admire most about Rena? She really knows herself… she knows what she’s got, and how to use it to the fullest. And that lets her understand others as well… she’s probably one of the best mental tacticians in the fed.

Latino leans on the back of the couch, and ruffles Alicia’s hair.

Latino: You’re getting pessimistic again, chula. Don’t talk yourself into a disadvantage, you’re smarter and stronger than she is without a doubt.

Alicia smiles, and holds his hand.

Alicia: You always have such belief in me…

Latino: You know it.

They stay like that for a few seconds, then Latino glances at the clock, and the moment passes. It’s almost time for his match. He turns back to the mirror, and straightens himself up.

Alicia: You know what I think the difference between me and Rena is? When I go out to the ring, I present a controlled version of myself to the crowd and my opponent… it’s me, but it’s the me they expect to see. I’ve always been a private kind of person, so I use a façade to give me the confidence to go out there and perform. Rena isn’t afraid to show them everything, and I don’t mean in terms of clothes or the lack of them.

Alicia looks over her shoulder; Latino is heading to the door, too focused on his match to have really taken in what she just said. Alicia isn’t really bothered.

Alicia: Victor… I love you, you know that?

Latino stops, and smiles.

Latino: Yea. I love you, too… I’ll see you after the match.

He leaves, closing the door behind him. Alicia gets up, walks to the little table in front of the mirror, and leans on it, staring at her reflection.

Alicia: Rena, Rena, what do you have planned? I have no idea, but I’m going to try and encounter it with an open mind. Yet…..

She pauses, as if reticent even to voice the thought in her head.

Alicia: ….what happens if I’m not quite as straight-laced as either of us think?

Alicia continues to gaze, her expression a curious mix of trepidation and anticipation, as the scene fades out.

Segment: Rochester vs. Cardiff (Credit: DD, WCW 98)

The camera cuts to the backstage, where Dan ‘Daredevil’ White is standing, posing, next to Charlotte, who is holding a microphone.

Charlotte: Hello, and we’re here with the current Light-Heavyweight title number one contender, Dan ‘Daredevil’ White. So Dan-

Dan: -Mr. White, if you don’t mind me saying.

Charlotte: Ok then…Mr. White, so do you think you have what it takes to win the Light-Heavyweight championship this coming Saturday at Winter Discontent?

Dan grabs the microphone off Charlotte

Dan: Well Charlotte I am of course the greatest Lightweight, Cruiserweight, Light-Heavyweight, whatever name that belt has had in the history of the ACW. I mean my record shows that itself. I mean 105 days as your Lightweight champion, 9 successful defences and may I add that I was an UNDEFEATED champion. Yeah. In fact I only lost my belt because of some slack-jawed hillbilly by the name of Murky Stankton.

Charlotte gives out an uneasy grin, calmly taking the microphone back from DD.

Charlotte: But Da-Mr. White, do you think you have what it takes to defeat Bre Double T at Winter Discontent?

Dan takes the microphone back.

Dan: Listen baby, the Double-D has done it before, and he’ll do it again. At Winter Discontent, my name will be flashing everywhere you choose to look. From billboards to the signs of the fans, my name will be there. And you will bow down to your NEW two-time Light-Heavyweight Champion. And that, my friend, is the right touch.

Dan throws the microphone down to the ground and walks off, leaving Charlotte on her own as we fade out.

Match 3: Latino & Red vs. Gunman & Mystery Man (Credit: Latino)

Tag action is on the menu next; the fans settle quickly as Philip enters the ring.

Phillip: Ladies and Gentleman this next match up is a Tag Team fight. Introducing first the tag team of Latino and Red’s Only Fan!

A loud “OooOOoOoOoOoOoOOoOoO Latino!” is heard throughout the speakers across the arena. As the slow beats of War’s Lowrider starts to play they soon merge to Red’s Scorpion Theme from Mortal Kombat. The pair come out to a big pop from the crowd as they are on their feet. Many hold up signs that say “Bring Back Spanish Boyz” and “Red > Gunman”. Latino slaps hands with many of the lucky fans. Red does the same and then jumps onto the apron. Latino walks up the steel steps and then jumps over the top rope. He climbs the nearest turnbuckle and slaps his chest for the fans. Red is now in the middle of the ring as he plays off to the fans. Latino jumps down and the partners for tonight shake hands as they are more than ready for tonight’s match up.
Phillip: And their opponents, the tag team of Quimby and the Masked Gunman!

Quimby and Gunman come out through the back, Gunman first, as the fans are already booing them relentlessly. Quimby stares down to the ring and then looks around to all the fans surrounding him with signs that say “Latino > Quimby” and “Quimby Sucks”. The Gunman pays no attention as he continues to walk down the entranceway barely noticing the fans as they lean over with their arms extended. Quimby follows along and slides under the ropes, entering the ring. He gives Red a quick look and then stares over at Latino as he works to keep his distance. Quimby and his partner for tonight go to their respective corners as they work out a game plan.

The Bell Rings.

Quimby and Red start up the match as they stand face to face. The fans are already behind Red as they chant his name all over the arena. Red gives a look around the arena with a smile and then glances at Quimby. Quimby quickly gives him a slap in the face and then starts to attack as he throws a left and a right, barely giving his opponent a chance to breathe. He then puts on a headlock and applies a great amount of pressure. Quimby glances over at Latino with an expression on his face that says “Watch out you’re next!” He goes back to work on Red and attacks with a forearm to the back. Red falls down to one knee and Quimby quickly goes for a cover. One and a kickout as Red shows he is far from over. Quimby and Red get back to their feet and now lock up in the middle of the ring. Each person vying for control in the match. Red elbows Quimby in the torso and then whips him across the ring. He runs the opposite way and now both men pass one another as they continue running. They bounce off the ropes once more and as they come at one another once again both jump up with a clothesline. They catch one another and come down onto the mat hard as a double clothesline is performed. Both men are laid out on the mat and the Referee looks around checking on the status of both superstars.

The Referee is counting One….Two….Three....Four….Five and just Six is yelled out Quimby is the first to move. He reaches for the ropes and slowly starts to get up. As he reaches for the turnbuckle he’s face to face with Latino and instantly jumps back as Latino swings a left and misses. Red is back on his feet and runs across the ring and then swiftly utilizes his Back Brain Dropkick. Quimby falls down hard and Red is back onto his feet in seconds. He runs to the ropes once more and springboards off with a Lionsault nailing perfectly on his opponent. He rolls over and quickly tags in his partner as the fans jump up. Latino steps between the ropes as he enters the ring as he walks around Quimby. He grabs Quimby the hair and pulls him up roughly. It’s clear Latino is not in the greatest of moods since last Meltdown. He gives Quimby a punch to the face and then another as he finally lets go of him. Quimby stumbles around the ring in a daze and Latino kicks him the gut. He tries for a suplex but Quimby reverses it into a spinning neckbreaker that comes out of the nowhere. The fans give out a large boo as Quimby grabs onto the ropes with a grin on his face. He sets himself back on his feet and viciously Soccer Kicks Latino in the side of the face. The former friend drags Latino to his corner and tags in Gunman. The duo start working on Latino as they stomp repeatedly on the superstar. Quimby stands Latino up and Gunman slaps him across the face as both men yell out towards the superstar. The Referee starts yelling at Quimby to let him go and he does so only by throwing Latino headfirst into the turnbuckle corner. Gunam starts working on Latino as he German suplexes him from out of the corner directly on his head. Latino rolls around in pain and Red quickly jumps over the ropes and ducks under the Referee as he tries to keep order in the ring. Red quickly punches Gunman across the face and then gives him a chop across the face. The crowd erupts in a “WOOOOOOOOOOOO!” Red throws another punch and then another chop garnering another similar response. Latino starts to get up and quickly kicks Gunman in the gut. The tag partners each grab a side and perform a double suplex. Red slides out of the ring and goes back to his corner as Latino gets back to his feet. The crowd are now on their feet as Latino gives that signature smile and starts climbing the nearest turnbuckle. He slaps his chest and jumps off with Last Night’s Hangover nailing it perfectly on the face of Gunman. He hooks the leg for the cover and Referee slaps the mat.

ONE!

TWO!

TH- Quimby breaks the pinfall as he performs a kick to Latino’s face. Quimby yells at Latino and teases him to come on and fight. Latino looks around and is obviously more than ready to fight. He gets on his feet and throws Gunman towards Red and then tags in his partner. Red looks confused but Latino instantly springs at his once best friend. Then Quimby ducks and rolls under the ropes, as he wants to get out of the way. Latino takes a few steps back and then with a headstart run jumps over the top rope with a plancha on top of Quimby. The fight doesn’t stop as they two start brawling as in the past. Each throws a left and a right. Quimby knees Latino and grabs him by the hair as both are stood up. He runs Latino and throws him clearly over the barrier into the crowd. Quimby follows as Latino kicks him in the face. The two continue to fight as the crowd tries to move out the way. They keep moving deeper and deeper into the crowd until the cameras cannot keep up with them. Back in the ring, Red’s Only Fan is confused as to what just happened. Gunman is starting to get onto his feet with help from the turnbuckles. The Referee yells at Red to continue on with the match. Red grabs his opponent and start punching him across the forehead. The fans start counting a long with the punches, One, Two, Three, Four, Five, but Red stops after the Fifth throw and then knees him in the torso. He stands Gunman in the middle of the ring and runs across to gain some momentum. Red jumps up with the bicycle kick nailing it like an expert in the ring. He then grabs his opponent’s legs and then bends one knee and starts turning him over. The Masked Gunman tries to fight it off but Red successfully turns him over putting on Mr. Red. He starts applying as much pressure as he can and then drags him into the center of the ring. The Referee asks Gunman those questions we all know and he yells out a no. He grabs for the ropes with desperation and desire, but Red keeps a firm stance as to wear he is. Gunman now slaps the mat as he gives up in the middle of the ring and the Referee calls for the bell.

Phillip: Here is your winner by submission…Red’s Only Fan and Latino!

Latino and Quimby are nowhere to be seen as Red gets to his feet holding his side in pain. The Referee raises his arm in victory as the fans are chanting “Red! Red! Red!” He climbs the turnbuckle and raises both arms to the fans as they yell out. Back in the ring, Gunman is started to stir and the Referee tries to help him up. He pushes the Referee away and gets to his feet. He looks over at Red as climbs down and stumbles a bit backwards. Red gives a smirk as he leaves the ring and the show cuts to commercial.

Segment: Taking it one step at a time (Credit: DD, WCW 98)

We cut to the arena, where a camera slowly pans across the Seoul Arena, and the fans jump up as they see themselves on the titantron. Philip enters the ring at this point and begins to speak.

Philip: Ladies and gentlemen, I have a very special announcement to make. This show, being our last show on tour before Winter Discontent, has been a huge success as we continue throughout. So it is my duty, that on behalf of Alpha Championship Wrestling, we thank you, our record-breaking 25,432 fans!

The crowd goes ecstatic at the news, clearly pleased that they’ve broken the attendance record for this arena.

Philip: And without further ado, will you please welcome Dan ‘Daredevil’ White and WCW 98!

The Welsh National Anthem hits and the fans immediately turn their cheers to jeers as Daredevil and WCW 98 walk through the curtains in suits, making their way down to the ring. As they’re walking down, a fan shouts some abuse at DD, which he takes badly. He goes to confront the fan, but WCW 98 grabs him in time and turns him towards the ring, which Daredevil at this point appears reluctant to do so. As the two enter, they are handed microphones and stand in the ring, with the crowd slowly dieing down at this point.

WCW 98: Next weekend in Tokyo, Japan, my client here faces off against Bre Double T for the Light-Heavyweight title. In an added bonus arranged by both myself, an unnamed member of the KYSPBA and Chairman Gingerdude, neither the Untouchables nor the KYSPBA will be allowed to interfere, at a risk of the stable being expelled indefinitely as a result.

The translator makes a good job of translating this into Korean, and the fans appear intrigued by this decision.

WCW 98: However that’s enough about next Saturday, but we are both here to discuss something tonight!

WCW 98 stops, allowing Daredevil to talk

Dan: A couple of months back, you’ll remember how I so nearly defeated The Machoman Randy Dallas Kanyon for the ACW World Heavyweight Championship.

The crowd cheer as they hear the name of RDK, and DD pauses.

Dan: However tonight, I face off against the Machoman RDK to end this stupid thing, for the World Heavyweight title. And tonight, we will finally see Dan ‘Daredevil’ White win the gold!

The fans begin to boo as they hear this news, unhappy at Dan’s ambitions.

Dan: But to make it slightly more interesting, WCW 98 and I have a proposition. Now I understand that the Machoman is not yet in the arena, but I’m sure he wouldn’t mind if I made the match…say, a No Holds Barred match? And since RDK likes to get the crowd’s opinion on everything, do you peeps agree with it?

Most fans in the arena cheer for the decision, and Dan and WCW 98 stand, looking rather smug with themselves.

Dan: Ok then. So it’s decided: Dan ‘Daredevil’ White vs. ‘the Machoman’ RDK in a No Holds Barred Match for the ACW World Heavyweight Title. And that is a fact, knowledge is the bomb

A clever SFX of a bomb blowing up is heard

Dan: And I thank you.

The Welsh National Anthem hits again, and the two leave the ring, ready to warm up for the main event as we fade out.

Segment: ‘Fair Trade?’ (Credit: Kudo)

Kudo is shown returning to the Armada locker room with the black and white mask in his hands. The rest of the Armada smile upon seeing Kudo return with what he sought out after.

Bre: Wow, that was a pretty assholish thing to do, even for my standards.

FSX: You never could get over that mask could you?

Kudo(grinning again): I am NOT obsessed…I just wanted to send a message to my friend before Winter’s Discontent…

FSX: Suuure. You know, I have to hand it to you though, I thought you were joking when you said you’d do anything to unmask El Rey, even when he was in the shower. Good to see that you can deliver.

Bre: Haha you got that right. Aint that right Jearus?

Jearus: …

Kudo: You’re damn right I deliver. Both backstage and in the ring. I am not going to let El Rey try and hinder the uprising of the light heavyweights with his horrid style of wrestling and his dirty mask that mocks everything that we stand for.

FSX: You know, Jearus wears a mask too. How come you’re never bothered by that?

Bre: Yeah, I always wondered that too.

Jearus: …

Kudo: Because Jearus has the potential to be a great performer and is already light years ahead of someone like El Rey de la Mascara. Even that name strikes my nerves. De la Mascara…Of the Mask…Like he somehow has more honor than I do because he wears a mask or something.

FSX: I’m sure it’s nothing like that at all. Hell, I’m sure Jearus wears his because it just makes him look cool.

Jearus: …

Bre: You know Jearus, you haven’t said much. What’s up?

Suddenly Jearus raises his face and smashes a vase on top of Bre’s head, following it up by throwing a table over in FSX and Kudo’s direction. The three men are disarrayed momentarily and when they come to, Jearus is already gone and the chaos has stopped.

Bre(stroking his head): Ugh, what the hell was that for?

FSX: Wait a minute, didn’t Jearus say he was going to be gone for some personal issues for a bit?

Bre: Yeah he did say something like that…

Kudo:…the mask…the mask is gone…

FSX: Whoa, Kudo you’d better sit down for this one, that’s not all that’s missing…

FSX points into the direction of the table where Kudo always leaves his Entertainment Belt, showing nothing but dust and the shadows from the chandelier above them.

Kudo: UUUHHHRHAAAAAARRRRRRRGHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Kudo forcefully pushes the cameraman away as the picture statics out.

Match 4: Rena vs. Kudo (Credit: Latino)

Having just seen what’s been going on backstage, the crowd has no idea what to expect as they see Philip entering the ring.

Phillip: Ladies and Gentleman this next match is an intergender match with a time limit of 20 minutes! Introducing first the ACW Entertainment Champion from Kyoto, Japan….Mr. K.O…..Kudo!

The arena lights dim and then flash periodically with the beat of “Poison.” A small pyro explosion appears as everyone jumps back a bit and then the lights come back on with Kudo at the top. He looks to the left and right and then down to where his title should be. Kudo continues walking down to the ring very ill-tempered over the earlier events in the night. He walks up the steps and then quickly enters the ring as his opponent is announced.

Phillip: And his opponent from New York, NY….The Supreme Diva…Rena!

As Rena’s theme plays around the arena the fans stand up giving her a mixed reaction. A large amount of the men and some women are cheering and making comments to her as she walks down the entranceway seductively. Another portion boo her as if she is the second coming of DWB. She pays no attention as she, with a smirk, looks over at Kudo standing in the ring. She walks up the steps and slowly enters the ring as she bends over garnering a big response from the crowd. The bell now rings as she gets herself ready for tonight’s match.

* Thee Bell Ringeth *

The match starts out as Rena goes for a kick on Kudo. He blocks it as he grabs her leg and then pulls her forward causing her to lose her balance. He quickly maneuvers around on the mat and then starts throwing a few forearms to her face. With each coming blow Kudo becomes more and more angry and then finally ends it with a hooked punch. He grabs Rena by the hair and drags her up onto her feet. He whips her into the ropes and then runs the opposite way. Kudo bounces off the ropes with the Flashback Elbow. Just as he is about to connect with Rena she ducks and runs past him. She bounces off the ropes once more and then catches Kudo in the face with a Jumping Spinning Sidekick. Kudo hits the mat hard and Rena lands on her feet. Not wanting to waste any time she drags Kudo to the corner. She climbs the corner and viscously applies the Calf Branding Facebuster. The fans slowly chant for Rena as she breaks the hold and then gives him a swift quick to the face. Kudo rolls out of the ring as he tries to get a beather and Rena climbs the corner once again. Waiting a few seconds to get her balance she jumps with a crossbody block. Kudo catches her and then performs a gutbuster on the diva. He lets her drop on the outside mats as the Referee yells out One. Kudo grabs a hold of Rena by the hair and then runs her into the steel steps. Two. He grabs her once more and tries for a suplex but Rena reveres it into one of her own slamming Kudo’s back onto the steel steps. Three. She falls down from the match starting a toll on her and Kudo is sprawled out over the steps feeling the effects from the move. The Referee continues to count, Four. Five. Six.

Rena gets up as she hears Seven from the Referee. She rolls in and out of the ring, breaking the count and then stands on the apron. Kudo is still laying on the steel steps and Rena takes a few steps back. She runs on it and then jumps off with a front flip. Kudo rolls out of the way and Rena’s back slams hard onto the steels steps. She screams out in pain and Kudo falls down hard on the outside mats as he struggles to gain his composure. He hears the Referee yell out Three and then grabs Rena as he pulls himself back in the ring. As the seconds pass by and the fans are cheering their heads off the Referee walks around the ring checking on both competitors. Rena is barely moving as she is still feeling the effects from the steps. Kudo is showing more signs of life as he gets up, shaking his head. He stands up Rena and signals to the fans it’s time to end the match. Rena is whipped across the ring as she bounces off the ropes. As the two come face to face Kudo goes for the Poison Mist but Rena ducks and kicks him in the gut. She quickly lifts him up for the Hell on Heels but Kudo counters it with the Yakuza Knee Strike before she can finish it. Kudo lands on feet just barely and Rena falls down on her back from the impact. He quickly covers her and hooks her leg as the Referee slides onto the mat.

ONE!

TWO!

THREE!

Phillip: Here is your winner…..Kudo!

Kudo quickly rolls out of the ring as he still has his stolen title on his mind. He moves down the entranceway towards the back in a haste and the cameras then cut back to Rena as she gets up surprised at the last few seconds. The fans once again give her a mixed reaction as she leaves the ring. The show slowly cuts to commercial.

Segment: A Partnership is Born. (Credit: Tornado & The Only Red’s Fan)

The camera is backstage. Tornado walks into shot and walks down the corridor towards his dressing room. He is wearing his wrestling gear but he is also wearing a sky-blue t-shirt with the slogan ‘Original Criminal’ in black letters on top of a mass of shapes showing familiar scenes from ‘the ghetto’.

The Only Red’s Fan walks around the corner and Tornado stops him as they walk past each other. Red seems a little perturbed about this, interpreting it as an act of aggression.

Red: What the fuck do you want?

Tornado lifts his hands up, signalling that he doesn’t have violent intentions.

Tornado: Woah, calm down. I just wanted to congratulate you on your recent run. You’ve been really impressive but this is the first chance I’ve had to say anything.

Red: Oh…(clearly relaxing.) thanks. You’ve been doing well too, seems we’ve both been on a roll recently. Well I’ve got to go, good luck in your title match at Winter Discontent.

Tornado: Wait, that’s what I was going to talk to you about.

Red: Oh?

Tornado: Well as you saw in my last title shot, that slimy bastard Rawt will do anything to keep hold of his title and I’ve got no doubt that in my Iron Man Match his scheming bitch of a girlfriend, Gelale, will get involved. So, I was wondering if you would accompany me to the ring to ensure that we can have a fair match. You know, just keep an eye on what she’s up to.

Red: Yeah, sure. That shouldn’t be a problem. I’ll talk to you later, I’ve really got to go.

Tornado: Right, cheers. Talk to you later.

Tornado and Red shake hands and walk off in opposite ways. Tornado is clearly relieved. Obviously happy that he can have a fair title shot at Winter Discontent.

Fade Out.

Segment: Heat (Credit: Hunter / RDK)

We return from the commercial break to get a large pan around the ring, where the foreign ACW fans are frantically waving their signs around trying to get on American TV. Some of these signs are quite entertaining, as not many of these people are fluent in English (a personal favorite of the production team's is "Latino and AK Be Best of Couples ACW's!"). Regardless, "Macho Man" hits the speakers and the simple tune is not lost in translation as the fans rise to their feet and maniacally cheer for the ACW Champion himself. RDK walks out with both of his titles on his shoulders and high fives a few of his fans before entering the ring. He looks around and smiles, then raises the mic to his lips.

RDK: BRUDAHS, IT'S GOOD TO BE HERE, ITS GOOD TO BE LIVE! I AM YOUR ACW WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION! OoOoOoOoOoOoOoH Yeeeeah!

The crowd roar in approval of RDK's opening comments and the roof nearly implodes from the applause RDK receives.

RDK: Macho or Nacho brudahs, FOR SEVENTY TWO DAYS I HAVE BEEN THE ACW WORLD CHAMPION! FOR FORTY FOUR DAYS, I HAVE BEEN ONE HALF OF THE ACW TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS, NOT TO MENTION A DOUBLE CHAMPION! I am on top of the world! I have gone through street fights, triple threats, lumberjack ladder matches, ENTIRE STABLES! I have persevered over my forgiven yet once cold hearted father! I defied death, I machoed up on all opposition! Davey Marvel, Victor Laureano, Dan "The Daredevil" White! EVEN YOU, ANDREW HUNTER! Yeah that is right I mean the one and only WORLD TITLE CONTRACT Hunter! That’s right brudah, you blew your chance at MachoMania! Defeated TNT for nothing! "MAW GAWD THE HAVEN OF HARDCORE!" Brudah don't think so! Roody poo, ching chang poo, IT DON'T MATTER BRUDAH, Aunt Jemima this, Uncle Ben that! Syrup on rice, IS GONNA MAKE YA FAT! The point being brudah, NOBODY WANTS SYRUP ON RICE, AND THEY CERTAINLY DON'T WANT YOU, THE "LEADER" of the SENATORIAL, whether or nor MEMORIAL STABLE, AS THE ACW WORLD CHAMPION! Dig that JABRONI!

MACHO MAN MACHO MAN!

OoOoh Yeeeeah!

Crowd pops for RDK's greatness

RDK: Now The Macho Man has a No Holds Barred World Heavyweight title match up tonight against Dan "Daredevil" White ONCE AGAIN! But brudah can handle the Untouchables Leader NO Problem! But brudah got news for Hunter, the jabroni can't even beat me! He don't got confidence, no charisma, no flavor, no spice, nothing to savor, Rizzle dizzle dazzle, HES SUCH A HASSLE! ....A coward....sending the Capitilists to do your dirty work...you make people like me sick brudah! AT WINTER DISCONTENT MACHOMANIA IS GONNA RUN WILD! OOOOO---

Just then, "Painkiller" hits the speakers and interrupts RDK's words. The fans pop again as Hunter comes out grinning, holding a microphone in his right hand. He scratches his chin with the other and slowly gets into the ring, then stares down RDK.
Hunter: So! I'm a coward? I think not, my machomaniacal friend. I am not a coward and I am in fact a cunning specialist. I am simply attempting to take an advantage. Wouldn't you attempt to take an advantage?

RDK: Well, brudah, I'm not sicking any of my friends on you.

Hunter: Maybe not, but you've pondered it.

RDK: Yes, I have. But I thought better of it. After all, you're not very confident---

Hunter: Well there's where you make your first mistake. If there is one thing none of my opponents should ever do is underestimate me. I came home, had a drink, and slept like a baby for quite some time. I then woke up, thought about it, and realized...

He looks directly at RDK.

Hunter: ...my victory is inevitable.

RDK smirks as Hunter slowly nods.

Hunter: I've never been in better shape than I am now, and I have enough prowess even to best you.

RDK: And yet you're still a coward.

Hunter: Damn it, RDK, I am NOT a coward!

RDK: Prove it.

Hunter opens his mouth, but rapidly closes it before saying something out of place. He ponders for a few seconds how to keep his powerful position in this arguement...and then he figures it out.

Hunter: RDK...to prove that I am not a coward...hell, to prove that I am a far superior wrestler to you...I wish to have a specific kind of gimmick match with you.

RDK: I'm listening.

Hunter: I figure, what's the most cruel thing I can come up with? What would be great for me taking the advantage yet also being in a disadvantage. Both of us choose to battle in the style of a brawler...and a brawl is what these fans will get. And in this match, we won't just make the other tap out. We won't pin each other for a mediocre three count. No...we will have to beat our opponents so senseless that they won't be able to rise for a count of ten...

The audience cheers. Even in another language these people can understand what Hunter speaks of.

Hunter: RDK, I challenge you to be the...LAST MAN STANDING!

The audience pops upon realization that their thoughts have come true. The champion looks at his number one contender with a cocky grin.

RDK: Brudah...this time...YOU'RE ON!

The audience cheers once again as the two stare at each other without a word. But, as always, the silence must be broken.

Hunter: I hope you know what you're getting into, RDK. This won't be me at my most sadistic. No...this will be me at my most masochistic. I am willing to go through impossible things to get that gold and leather strap on your shoulder. Are you willing to do the same?

RDK: You bet your ass, brudah. Your gonna be your most masochistic? WELL BRUDAH, RANDY KANYON IS GONNA BE AT HIS MOST MACHOISTIC! YOU BETTA BELIEVE DAT JABRONI! Now, WHATCHA GONNA DO WHEN MACHOMANIA RUNS WILD ON YOU!?!

The audience cheers as Hunter grins.

Hunter: Simple...I'll fight.

RDK sees the coming attack and blocks one of Hunter's punches into one of his own. Hunter blocks on of RDK's and lands on of his own as well. The two start exchanging punches until RDK takes Hunter down with a clothesline. Hunter gets up and ducks another clothesline attempt, then kicks RDK in the legs. He runs at the ropes for a Floyd Kick, but RDK ducks and attempts to lift Hunter up for the Jabroni Buster, but Hunter battles out and pushes RDK away. The two stand at opposite sides of the ring and stare deeply at each other. Hunter grins, checks to see if he is bleeding, and then hops out of the ring and proceeds to go backstage.

Hunter: Not yet,...not yet...

RDK simply smirks and watches Hunter's departure with a clear look of "I'll be waiting." Because in the end, it's all about patience. But even the most patient of people cannot wait to see this inevitable brawl. Who of these two will be the survivor? Who will walk out of Winter Discontent as the ACW World Champion?

Who will be the Last Man Standing?

Fade Out.

Segment: Your world or mine? (Credit: BK London)

The segment opens with BK London pacing back and forth in his locker room while talking on his cell phone. He is wearing a brand new set of short tights and his chest is taped up from the attack by Daniel Ness last week on Meltdown.

BK: Yeah I know honey, for the last time, I've got this under control. I mean come on, if their best offense is Daniel Ness then this will just be a warm up for my matches in the future.

BK sits down on his couch and props his feet up on the coffee table and continues to talk on the phone when he hears a knock on his door. He responds with "Come in" and as he watches who walks through the door he smirks.

BK: Listen Kiley, I'll call you back....Love you too. Goodbye.

BK closes his cellphone and rises up from the couch and he is now face to face with his former protege Daniel Ness. The two have certainly grown since their first meeting in the dojo earlier this year, you can say that they may have evolved. With everything that happened on Meltdown by now the two would've been at blows but neither man lays a hand on each other, possibly because each man has a certain amount of respect for the other.

BK: So I guess tonight's the night huh?

Ness: Definitely, tonight's the night where I will become the teacher and you will become the student.

BK: We'll definitely see that tonight, but I've taught you nearly everything you know. I worked with you from the time you came here to the time you left, but I haven't taught you everything I know.

Ness: And I am grateful for that, but that isn't going to change how I run things in the ring. I will not hold back, you will feel 100% of Daniel Ness, In that ring...You step into MY WORLD!

BK chuckles. He looks down at the ground and then lays an open hand slap across the face of Ness. Ness holds his face and he looks like he is about to deck BK but BK just stand there, smiling, as if anticipating a blow.

BK: You better bring all that talk to the ring boy, because beating you down...will be the understatement of the century.

BK walks out of the room and Ness continues to stare at the door he walked through, infuriated. He moves his hand from his face and then he begins to smile as if to say that slap only got him more amped for the match, but was that BK's motive?

Fade Out.
