[Alicia "Atomic" Kitsune]

Warfare begins in a solemn mood; rather than the usual “check me out, I got tickets for ACW!!” shot, the show opens directly into a scene in Chairman Gingerdude’s office. Ginger looks to have had a rough few days, but he is focused and commands the room totally as he gazes around at the people assembled there.

Ginger: Gentlemen, I’ve called you all here tonight to offer you an opportunity….but it is one which I sincerely wish had never come to pass.

The gathering is silent; they all know what Ginger is talking about. Amo in particular looks melancholy, while Orochi and Kain maintain an outwardly neutral appearance. Hunter, Pilko and Predator have spent less time as members of the fed, but they too stay respectfully quiet.

Ginger: You all know the events which occurred at the end of Meltdown…..if you read the memo which was posted in the locker rooms, you’ll know that the Police dive team located and retrieved the sunken taxi cab. However the wreck was empty….except for this.

Ginger picks up the Entertainment title belt from his desk and sighs.

Ginger: The board of directors has expressed the wish that this belt be immediately returned to “active” status; the show must go on, as they say. Therefore tonight, there will be a match to decide the new holder of the entertainment title, to be decided by a single pinfall or submission. All of you here have been entered into this match, but given the circumstances I felt that you should be given the choice whether or not to participate. So if anyone wants to walk away, please feel free to indicate this by leaving the room now.

The six men look around at one another, but nobody moves. Ginger nods to the group.

Ginger: Very well. Good luck to all of you…..I hope to see a match that honours the former holder of this belt with its quality.

No more needs to be said, and the six file out of the room to prepare for their shot at gold. Ginger walks back behind the desk and slumps into his chair.

Ginger: I don’t know how much more of this I can take……

In a sudden outburst of anger, Ginger slams his fist down on to the desk, and the wood actually splits with the force. The thump makes Ginger’s cellphone jump off of the table.

Ginger: Dammit!

He reaches down to pick it up, but as he’s righting himself he sees something on the screen that makes him freeze.

Ginger: Eh? A text message?

With the phone beeping as he presses the keys, Ginger reads the text; his eyes widen, and then very slowly a smile starts to spread across his face…<br>
His fingers a blur, Ginger starts to key in a response, and the scene fades out.

Segment: A mysterious meeting (Credit: White Rose)

The shot shows Rose walking down one of the busy hallways backstage, there are various members of the technical crew walking throughout the hallway, but they scurry like mice in the presence of a hawk. Rose wears a deathly serious expression and many thoughts race through her head. She is thinking about the plan and she feels that everything will proceed as she intends. As she gets to the edge of the hallway she sees a gray bearded blind man fumbling and stumbling forward with little success, as she walks past him she bumps ever so slightly into his shoulder.

Blind Man: Alexandra?

Rose turns, interested.

Rose: Yes I am……….out of interest, how do you know my name old man?

The blind man gives a slightly devious smile.

Blind Man: I am just a fan, nothing more.

Rose: That doesn’t explain how you knew it was me despite your……condition.

Blind Man: Would you believe me if I told you I can read minds?

Rose: I tend to believe lots of things, but psychics are a very rare occurrence.

Blind Man: White hair is a very rare occurrence is it not?

Rose is slightly offended.

Rose: True enough, why did you stop me old man?

Old Man: My name is….well, call me Homer, Alexandra

Rose scoffs at this.

Rose: That is original.

Homer does not acknowledge this and moves on.

Homer: I have watched you for many months Alexandra, are you sure you are on the right path?

Rose: I suppose I will entertain you old man. Well, all knowing Homer, do you believe in fate?

Homer: Yes I do as a matter of fact.

Rose: Well, I don’t, I believe that I control the paths I take in my life and that the only right path is the path I choose.

Homer: I see Alexandra, but what do you think of your company, your allies?

Rose: We are all entwined, they are a part of me now and I am a part of them. Ridley saved me from a life of eternal ignorance. Yoko Satoshi is but a child still, but I feel I can mold her life for the better, because it was a life of nothing months ago and Orochi, well Orochi is still a mystery to me, but all barriers will eventually be broken. Old man, make no mistake, I trust them with my life.

Homer: You would trust a murderous sadist, or do you actually believe he is still has his humanity?

Rose: He is more of a human being than anybody else still living. Ridley saved my soul from an eternity of ignorance in a world of lies, how many times do I have to say this?

Homer’s face lets slip the fact that he is enjoying himself.

Homer: Alexandra, are you truly happy or do you still feel the painful pangs of inadequacy surging throughout your body? Do you still feel weak and incapable?

Rose: Watch your tongue old man, you don’t want to be deaf and dumb

Homer laughs for a few seconds.

Homer: Indeed I don’t, but you know Alexandra, the way you dodged the question answered it. Deep down, you feel that you are nothing but a pawn, a tool, you are nothing but what Ridley tells you to be and you are nothing without his inspiration.

Rose raises her hand in furious anger, but upon realizing that security is in place at various areas throughout the hall, she decides to leave instead and walks away without another word.

Homer: Alexandra, wait, I haven’t even got to the reason I came all this way.

Rose stops and clenches her fists before turning back around.

Rose: Make it quick old man.

Homer: Thus far you have spilled blood in an effort to appease that which resides within you, that feeling you cannot dismiss. This feeling will fall only after you have proven yourself to your own troubled psyche. Veer too far to the left and your personal quest will engulf you in ruin, and veer too far to the right and your allies will suffer for eternity. Skurai has no doubt in his mind, for no matter what you do, he will not be turned away as easily as you think. His anger and his deep immeasurable hate may very well engulf all things around him, for he is something different and his wrath is more terrible than it appears. Do not underestimate him Alexandra…<br>
Rose has an odd look on her face, but it is replaced quickly by a disbelieving scowl.

Rose: I have no more time for your foolish prophecy, though I will consider your words old man.

Rose turns and walks away again.

Homer: Wait! Alexandra!

Rose stops one last time.

Homer: If you don’t believe in fate, do you believe in God?

Rose does not hesitate.

Rose: I believe in myself.

Turning away, Rose walks through the door at the end of the hallway and heads for the Demon’s Pit.

Homer: You did not answer my question Alexandra Kaesar………your uncertainty can be heard in your voice and it can be seen in your bright blue eyes…. For your sake I hope you realize your true potential. Strange though, your mind is a book like the others, but with many indecipherable pages.

Homer is then engulfed in a thick bluish black smoke and he disappears as mysteriously as he appeared.

Fade out.

Match 1: Bladeshadow vs Angelo Giovanni (Credit: Latino)

It’s time to get the action started, and Philip’s armed with his mic and ready to announce the participants.

Phillip: Coming to the ring….from Upstate New York, Bladeshadow!

Drowning Pool's "Step Up" starts playing as Bladeshadow walks through in the curtains. The fans cheer loudly for him as he shakes hands with many of the fans in the front row. He stops to see a sign that says “Blade = Greatest. Ever.” Smiling he enters the ring waiting for his opponent.

Phillip: And his opponent…representing TIM….Angelo Giovanni!

“FBI's” theme starts playing as Angelo comes out. The fans boo him loudly but he pays no attention, walking on by. He enters the ring and yells at some fans nearby as he stares across the ring at Bladeshadow.

Bell Rings.

As the bell rings neither man moves. They both stare each other down. The fans start cheering loudly yelling “Bladeshadow! Bladeshadow!” Angelo, disgusted by this runs and spears Blade to the mat. He stands up laughing at him and then stomps him once. He picks up Blade and goes for a punch but Blade blocks it and delivers a European Uppercut. Dazed a little, Angelo tries for another punch but Blade ducks and returns with a clothesline knocking Angelo to one knee. Blade punches Angelo across the face knocking him down. He then bounces off the ropes for a leg drop. He goes for a pin but Angelo kicks out at two. The pair rise to their feet and close in to grapple; they are quite evenly matched in terms of strength and they push each other back and forth across the ring until Angelo gets Blade into one of the corners and starts working over his abdomen whilst maintaining the hold, preventing Blade from punching his way out. Angelo whispers insults to Blade as he attacks, but this just makes Blade more annoyed, and he jumps up on to the second rope before flipping over Angelo’s head, still holding his arms so that Angelo is brought down on to his back. Blade then flips in the opposite direction to drop his knees on to Angelo’s chest; Angelo’s shoulders are down and the count just passes 2 before Angelo gets a foot on the ropes. Angelo shoves Blade away, and then hits a quick bulldog to bring him down – but Blade is starting to get fired up, and he moves before Angelo can even get in place for a pin. The crowd cheers for Blade, and it looks as if the former world champ is in no mood to lose…….

In the background, however, Donatello Enzo is seen coming down to the ring smiling. Blade doesn’t notice this until Angelo points it out. Now with a nervous look on his face Blade doesn’t know what to do; his attention is diverted, and this lets a smirking Angelo get in a couple of quick kicks followed by a powerslam. The second member of TIM stands at ringside and is about to climb the ropes when suddenly V-3 appears, approaching from the outside through the crowd. He runs into the ring and jumps over the top rope knocking Enzo down on the outside mats. V-3 starts punching Enzo across the face repeatedly while Blade in the ring has recovered from the slam and Irish whips Angelo into the turnbuckle corner. He climbs on top of him and brings him down with a DDT. Blade climbs the turnbuckle once more and jumps off for the Thor’s Hammer but Angelo jumps out of the way at the last second. Angelo starts smiling the crowd as he thinks he got the better of Blade until he turns around and Blade lifts him for the Lights of Orion. Just then, however, John Gotti makes a belated appearance; he charges into battle, leaping over the still unconscious ref, and spears Blade before he can complete the move. Enzo has the better of V3 and he throws him into the ring; it’s now a 3 on 2 situation and the crowd boos angrily. Angelo gives the thumbs down and tells his associates to finish their rivals, but just then there’s a roar from the fans, and RDK belts down the ramp from the back, dives into the ring and proceeds to clean house, Macho Man style. Blade and V3 get up and join in, and the scene is one of absolute chaos as the ref finally returns to the land of the living. Hastily he waves his arms in the air and the bell rings.

Philip: Ladies and Gentlemen, the referee has declared this match to be a no – contest!

Philip’s announcement triggers a flood of backup officials from the back; with some difficulty the separate the warring groups. All 6 are escorted back to the locker rooms; while TIM continue to insult V3 and Blade, the tag title challengers thank RDK for his help. It’s clear that things are far from settled, and everyone wonders what the next moves in this game will be…….

Segment: Someday, you can be A Macho Macho Man Too! (Credit: RDK)

Fury is seen walking through the halls, very pumped about his opportunity as #1 Contender for the International title. He sees Dragon in the lobby drinking tea; with a nasty smirk, Fury kicks Dragon into some Dark match Jobbers and then laughs while continuing to walk through the corridors.

Fury is almost at his locker room when he is abruptly confronted by RDK, who’s just got back from his heroics in the first match. The crowd erupts in delight...

Jack Fury: Out of my way you overgrown excuse for a champion, I'll deal with you at Samhain!

RDK: Hold On there bruda! OoOoh Yeah! The Macho Man just wants to congratulate you on your success! He sees a bright future in store for you!

RDK is about to pat Fury's shoulder but Fury backs away 2 steps...

Jack Fury: How dare you!!

RDK: There’s no need to be grouchy bruda! The Macho Man thinks he can mold you into a perfect pupil! Now if you think the Macho Man can mold Fury into a perfect pupil, give me an OoOoh Yeah!

The crowd shouts out: "OoOoh Yeah!"

RDK: Well then, it’s settled! Come on, I'll show you around my gym!

Fury tries to walk away, but with RDK being The Macho Man he does not have much choice but to be led off. Fury punches Macho in the gut, but Macho flexes and laughs it off. Fury sighs and waits for RDK to take him to the gym, for Fury has another plan...

Fade out.

Segment: Different Priorities? (Credit: Ridley)

Heading out of the Demon Pit, Rose passes Ridley, who's on his way back in.

Rose: Lord Ridley, how are---

Ridley: I'm fine, Alexandra.

Rose: .........you seem very tense lately.

Ridley turns and gives her an annoyed look.

Ridley: I'm not "tense". I'm focused. I'm prioritizing. While you're out chasing a belt, I'm busy furthering our interests in ACW.

Rose steps back, somewhat chagrined, and has a rather hurt look in her eyes. Ridley immediately regrets what he's said, and quickly moves forward, putting a hand on her shoulders.

Ridley: Alexandra, look, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have---

Rose: No....no, it's all right, I see now.

She turns and walks back down the hallway, leaving Ridley behind. He watches after her for a second, a look of deep frustration on him, and then enters the Demon Pit, slamming the door.

Fade Out.

Segment: Rose’s Plan (Credit: White Rose)

Skurai walks through a large open area backstage and everybody in his path moves out of the way quickly in fear. He is filled with rage and anger, he is looking feverishly for his prey and will be unmerciful towards it. He comes upon a long row of crates, two boxes high stacked up nearly towards the ceiling. In the center of the rows he sees Alexandra "The White Rose" Kaesar standing, holding a bottle in her hand, as if she is expecting him. His hunt is over and he has prepared for this for days…..

Skurai: Hello Rose, its time to play!

Rose turns and looks almost shocked, she runs towards the end of the rows and Skurai gives chase after her.

Rose: Now!

Orochi and Yoko charge from the far left of the room where they were hiding in the shadows and they push the big stacks of crates forward as Skurai is running in between the two rows, crushing him under them. Rose, who was just clear of being buried herself, smiles as if all has gone according to plan.

Rose: Well done Yoko, Well done indeed. Orochi, you never cease to amaze me.

Yoko looks happy at the compliment Rose has just given her and Orochi is obviously wondering what is going to happen next.

Rose: Yoko, hand me the handkerchief I had you hold for me.

Yoko unwraps the handkerchief from her wrist and hands it to Rose. Rose then opens the bottle she had in her hand and pours a foul smelling liquid on the handkerchief, soaking it thoroughly. Rose waits for Skurai to emerge from the rubble.

Rose: Surely he has a little fight left in him?

Yoko: Alexandra, look!

A hand emerges from the rubble and Skurai, who is bleeding from cuts to the back, comes out from the wreckage staggering a lot and facing in the opposing direction from Rose, Yoko, and Orochi. Rose walks up behind him, but he is not defenceless, he hears Rose’s approach and turns around, swinging wildly at Rose. Rose ducks Skurai’s punches and places the wet handkerchief on Skurai’s face and Skurai begins to pass out.

Rose: You fool, I told you that play time was over. In your dreams……or your nightmares, think of me.

Rose forces a dominating kiss onto Skurai’s lips and shoves his head onto the concrete, but Skurai is already unconscious.

Rose: So weak, he played right into my hands.

Orochi: What will we do with him?

Rose: Leave him here, he should be awake in an hour or so, either way, he is not a threat to me.

Satisfied with her success, Rose walks away and Orochi and Yoko follow her as they all head back to the Demon Pit.

Fade Out.

Match 2: Fallen Souls vs Gooeygarth (Credit: White Rose)

The crowd is ready to receive entertainment. Entertainment is here.

Philip: Ladies and Gentleman, this match is scheduled for one fall, introducing first the challenger from Soul Universe, please welcome Fallen Souls.

"Boldly Going Nowhere" hits and FSX come out to a negative reaction from the crowd at ringside and in the nosebleed seats. FSX does not let it bother him as he strides confidently down the aisle with a mic in hand.

FSX: Cut my music. Ladies and Gentleman, I present to you the next Jr. Champion, FSX! You heard me, Gooey, I’m challenging you to put your title on the line, right now! I will beat that overrated jobber and take my place among the immortals who have held that belt. I will take the belt from that glorified transitional champ and become the champion the people can be proud to worship. I will-----

The crowd comes alive as "Word Up" hits and the Jr. Champion Gooey Garth comes out from the backstage area running towards the ring confident and charismatic. He slides into the ring and mouths towards FSX, "Try Me". The referee assumes this means Gooey accepts, and calls for the bell as the two men begin to stare each other down.

Bell Rings

Garth towers over FSX and FSX looks just a little intimidated as the two stare down in the center of the ring. FSX changes his expression to one of resolve and slaps Garth in the face, but this only angers Garth, who gives FSX a stiff clothesline. FSX falls to the mat, but quickly gets back to his feet only to be Irish Whipped into a beautiful back body drop. FSX gets to his feet slowly, only to be grabbed from behind and put into a textbook sleeper hold by Garth, but he is not in the hold long before he reverses it specialized version of the Ace Crusher. Garth falls, but he gets back to his feet rather quickly and moves towards FSX. FSX is determined to take Garth down and goes to kick him, but Garth catches FSX by the leg and goes for a clothes, which FSX ducks and reverses into a stiff neckbreaker. The Crowd boos loudly as FSX make a perfect cover and The Referee counts 1……..2.., but Garth kicks out easily as the fans cheer loudly. Garth gets to his fee seconds after FSX and pays for it as he gets hit by an excellent running leg lariat. Garth receives this blow hard, but he is undaunted and gets to his feet again, only to be hit by a DDT this time. FSX does not go for the cover, instead he climbs the top rope as the fans chant "Fallen Sucks", but for a brief second he breaks his concentration to give the fans a quaint little finger gesture. FSX turns his head back towards Garth and measures the distance for his jump and flies from the top toward the fallen Garth, but at the last second, Garth moves out of the way causing FSX to hit the mat at full speed. Both men are down on the mat and FSX is clutching his gut in a substantial amount of pain. Garth gets to his feet, rebounds against the ropes and hits Garth with a devastating big boot. Garth falls on top of FSX and the Referee counts 1…..2….., but FSX kicks out in an act of desperation. Garth gets up and gives FSX a forceful Irish whip into the far turnbuckle and follows it up with a full speed clothesline, but FSX jumps over the coming Garth and turns around hitting Garth with a back suplex. FSX quickly climbs the turnbuckle up to the middle rope and waits for Garth to rise to him feet before hitting a flying bulldog onto Garth. The crowd boos loudly as FSX covers Garth and the Referee counts 1………2…….,but Garth puts his foot on the ropes in the nick of time. FSX is furious and he slams his hand against the mat as the fans cheer loudly. FS regains his composure and climbs the near turnbuckle up to the middle rope. Garth gets to his feet and turns to see FSX coming off the middle turnbuckle with a flying double axhandle, Garth grabs FSX and reverses it into a powerslam in mid air into the pin, The Referee counts 1…….2……, but FSX barely kicks out. Garth picks FSX up to his feet and goes positions him for a Powerbomb, but FSX reverses it into a Hurricanrana, into the pin and the Referee counts 1…..2….,but Garth kicks out yet again. FSX picks Garth up and kicks him in the stomach causing Garth to bend over, FSX then rebounds and goes against the ropes moving in for an Ax kick ,but Garth moves out of the way, turns FSX around and hits him with the Cheese Dip(Death Valley Driver). Garth goes for the pin and the Referee counts 1…….2…….3. Garth gets his hand raised as the Referee calls for the Bell.

Bell Rings.

Philip: Here is your winner and still Jr. Champion, GooeyGarth!

Garth celebrates his triumphant title victory and the crowd cheers loudly for him. FSX slams the mat in anger and retreats to the backstage area, leaving Garth to bask in his glory for the time being.

Segment: No rest for the wicked (Credit: Yoko)

As the scene opens, Ridley is sitting on his throne in the Demon Pit, giving looks to Rose as Yoko is typing on her laptop with Orochi looking over her shoulder, eating from a bag of chips.

Ridley: Do you HAVE to keep TYPING?!

Yoko: I'm almost done with this extra homework. It won't be much longer…..I’m running behind because I helped Rose out.

Rose sees that Ridley is about to snap at the annoyance, which wouldn’t be good for any of them.

Rose: Lord Ridley, perhaps we should take a short walk while she finishes.

Ridley stands up.

Ridley: Anything to get away from that damn incessant clicking.

Ridley and Rose exit the room. Orochi watches them in a disinterested way and devours a big handful of chips.

Orochi: You know your match is in like five minutes, right?

Yoko: I know, I know. I'm almost done though.

Orochi: You’d better hurry.

Orochi reaches into the bag, only to find that it's empty. Still hungry, he glances around for something else to eat. He spots a small bag next to Ridley's throne, and walks over to it and picks it up.

He looks inside, then comes back to Yoko.

Orochi: I found these M&M's. Want some?

Yoko: No.

He pops a small amount into his mouth.

Yoko: Hey, who's the Prime Minister of Ca-

Orochi: Paul Martin.

Yoko: ...Ok, thanks. Capit-

Orochi: Lima.

Yoko: What's-

Orochi: 362.3. Alexander the Great. Poland. Charles Dickens. The chameleon.

Yoko: ....What the hell are you eating?!

Orochi: M&M's.

Yoko: Well it doesn't matter, I'm done now. Saved, and ready to send back home as soon as my match is done.

Suddenly “Flower of Carnage” can be heard off in the distance.

Yoko: Oh no!

Yoko gets up and runs out of the room immediately, heading for the ring.

Orochi eats another small bite of the candy. His mouth twitches as he suddenly gets up and leaves the room.

Fade Out.

Match 3: Yoko Satoshi vs Donatello Enzo

The camera shot flicks to the arena, and Yoko dashes out to the ring as her music continues to play. Philip’s already announced her once, and he looks a little miffed.

Philip: (under his breath) Finally!......(Normal Voice) Now entering the arena, the first contestant in this intergender singles match…..from Okinawa, Japan…Yoko Satoshi!

Yoko hops into the ring, just a little out of breath. Philip raises and eyebrow, and Yoko glares threateningly; fortunately the FBI’s theme hits to herald the arrival of her opponent, thus drawing Yoko’s attention away.

Philip: And her opponent, one third of TIM and one half of the ACW Tag Team Champions…..from San Diego, Donatello Enzo!

Enzo’s not accompanied by the rest of TIM, but he isn’t intimidated by Yoko for one second. Neither is he under any illusions about the threat she poses, as he’s hammering away at her just as soon as he’s inside the ring, and the ref waves for the bell as Philip takes evasive action.

Bell Rings.

Enzo has learned the hard way that only a fool underestimates the ladies of ACW, and he’s determined to make his size and strength advantage count here. After a few punches have connected, Enzo whips Yoko to the ropes; Yoko flies back and Enzo lifts her up extraordinarily high so that she falls over seven feet on her way down from the back body drop. Enzo splashes down with his bulk and crushes the air out of Yoko’s lungs; the referee counts but Yoko kicks out hard just before 2. Enzo doesn’t let up, and returns to his punching strategy, but now Yoko has gathered her thoughts, and she retaliates with kicks to the abdomen and especially the knees until Enzo is forced down on to one knee. Yoko delivers the Pop from Okinawa and covers, but Enzo simply chucks her off before the 2 count is made and Yoko rolls across the ring. Enzo stands and draws himself up to his full height, taunting Yoko with the Italian chinflick, but Yoko is very close to one of the corners and she leaps up using the turnbuckle to launch into a swift missile dropkick to Enzo’s head. Enzo is dazed and staggers about, but he does not fall; Yoko tries to sweep his legs from under him by crouching and spinning her outstretched leg, but Enzo jumps and times it perfectly so that he actually lands on Yoko’s foot. Yoko cries out in pain from the impact and Enzo jumps again; Yoko drags herself away but it’s obvious that her foot is now very painful, and her speed is reduced. Enzo easily closes in on Yoko, collects her up and hits a huge powerbomb; he stays on the mat for the pin, and this time it’s well past 2 before Yoko gets her shoulder clear. The fans don’t like Yoko much but neither are they too impressed at Enzo’s cocky behaviour, and they boo him as he gets up holding Yoko off the floor by her hair.

Yoko is incensed by Enzo’s attitude; she struggles and claws at him, but Enzo holds her at arm’s length while he walks to the ropes before using a military press slam to send Yoko out of the ring. Yoko bounces on the thin outer matting and only just manages to evade Enzo as he steps over the ropes and tries to jump down on to her from the apron. As he lands however, Enzo instinctively bends his knees, and this brings his head and shoulders down to Yoko’s level – she kips up and savagely rakes Enzo’s eyes before using the apron to jump on to Enzo’s shoulders. Enzo flails about as Yoko batters him about the head – he tries to dislodge her, but Yoko wraps her legs around his neck and starts choking him out at the same time as pummeling him. He struggle goes on with Enzo traveling around the ring; he attempts to backup into one of the posts but Yoko swings herself around so that she is facing in the opposite direction and Enzo just smashes the back of his own head against the metal. With Yoko having moved, however, Enzo can now get a hold of her and he rips her off of him before hurling her to the ground and dropping his elbow; the blow is incredibly powerful and Yoko looks limp as Enzo rolls her back into the ring. Enzo covers and gets 2.5 before Yoko responds; Enzo can sense that Yoko is weakening and so he shifts gear to get the match finished. He lifts Yoko for the Spider Bite – the move is executed but Yoko doesn’t let him use it properly and the landing is not as forceful as normal, allowing Yoko to get her shoulder up before 3. Enzo doesn’t let this bother him – instead he just decides to try and repeat the move, but this time Yoko breaks away before the move can be used. She retreats toward the ropes and Enzo follows, but as he does so he walks into a kick to the gut and bends over clutching his stomach without thinking about what he’s doing. Seizing her chance, Yoko springs from the ropes for the flying guillotine; Enzo is brought down and taken by surprise, doing just enough damage for Yoko to roll him up for the 1-2-3.

Philip: Here is your winner…….Yoko Satoshi!

Yoko has been victorious, but it’s been a tightly fought match; she doesn’t wait to celebrate however as she’s in a hurry to get back and email off her assignment to her tutors. She leaves as speedily as she came; Enzo takes a little longer, and he’s clearly not happy with the loss. Next time, he thinks, he’ll invite the rest of TIM to back him up…

Segment: Mistaken Identity (Credit: TNT)

TNT is shown backstage wearing a TNT Hoodie that’s covering his eyes. He’s smirking, and he gets heel heat mixed with pops from the crowd.

TNT starts walking and the camera follows, and he goes up to random people he encounters.

TNT: Hey You!

Worker: Yes Mr. TNT?

TNT: Wha? You know what my name is?

Worker: Yes I do

TNT: So what? You watch my great matches or something?

Worker: No, I'm sorry I don't, I just work back here, backstage.

TNT looks confused and disgusted at the same time.

TNT: WHAT?! Wow, junior, I kinda feel sorry for ya. I mean not being able to see my matches?! Man, you're more pathetic then you look...get your oranjatang ass outta my picture...

TNT pushes the worker out of the camera’s view.

TNT then does some more walking till he finds more workers, and one by one, he puts some verbal abuse on them.

TNT: Shut Yo MOUTH, You piece of trash!

(He fakes a backhand and the worker flees).

TNT then goes up to a figure that’s about 5'10 and wearing white. As he turns around, it’s revealed to be Kross, and the crowd goes wild.

TNT: Hey, Yo my man, can you not wear white man, its hurting my eyes, and jeez...

TNT takes a look at the Lightweight title on Kross's shoulder.

TNT: Hmm...hey kid, that’s a nice replica belt of the Lightweight title. I can see you're a Kross fan too, but I wouldn't be, you should be a fan of me... T-N-T, heh....

Kross: What are you talking about you idiot? I AM Kross, I am the Lightweight Champion, and quite frankly people have been beheaded for being less of an idiot than you where I come from!

TNT: Is that right? Well wherever you come from doesn't matter, cause this is America baby, and if you were at the place I was born, you'd be shot dead, just for looking like you're looking Junior. Why don't you watch my match with 004 tonight, and the way I decimate him. And you better watch carefully Junior, cause that lightweight title is not gonna be around your waste for too long...heh..

Kross: Well I beg to differ TNT, because I will always be lightweight champion as long as people like you are the only opposition I have…..because I am that good, and I would beat you anytime, any day.

TNT gets up in Kross's face.

TNT: You sure about that chump? Huh?!

Kross gets back in TNT's face.

Kross: Yeah.....anytime, anyday.

Kross smiles and leaves the site, leaving TNT fuming with anger.

TNT: yeah, go on Junior, you don't want none of TNT….

TNT faces the camera

TNT:...Make no mistake about it people, tonight, I will make Double Oh 4....my BITCH! Cause he can't handle T-N-T...

TNT smirks and stalks away, and the crowd continues to react, this time with more boos than cheers.

Fade Out.

Segment: Back to basics (Credit: Brian Carnage)

The shot is of the corridors backstage; Carnage is walking towards his locker room to get ready for his match.

As he gets to his door Kevin Anderson approaches him.

Kevin: Mr Carnage, can you spare a few moments of your time to answer some questions?

Carnage: Yeah sure, shoot. First off though...just call me Brian. I hate that Mr Carnage crap.

Kevin: Thanks Mr....Brian, sorry. First off I would like to ask how you are feeling mentally going into this match? After all you have been on a poor run of form, starting from your losing the Junior Title.

Carnage: Well I admit I have had a bad run of form. I let my title go to my head and I wasn't mentally prepared to contend properly. In other words it was my fault that I've lost my last few matches. However I feel better now and I feel like I can put up a good fight tonight.

Kevin: Talking about tonight's match - what do you expect to happen tonight?

Carnage: To be honest I expect a very tough match tonight. Daredevil is a very skilled wrestler and he will take me to the limit.

Kevin: One last question Brian, who will win your match tonight?

Carnage: I won't commit myself to that at the moment. As I have already said, Daredevil is going to be a tough opponent and the match will hopefully be quite entertaining.

Kevin: Thanks Brian, enjoy your match.

Kevin turns and walks away as Carnage enters his locker room.

Fade Out.

Segment: Sweet Revenge (Credit: Yoko)

The cameras cut to Philip standing in the middle of the ring, who is about to announce the next match.

Philip: The next match is scheduled for one fall...

He doesn't get to finish his sentence, as he sees Yoko Satoshi walking down to ringside, without a musical cue.

Philip: What? Yoko’s not scheduled for anything else tonight….

Yoko rolls into the ring and takes his microphone without much struggle. The audience boos.

Yoko: I know you all want to see a match, but this is infinitely more important than what YOU want.

The fans continue to boo. Yoko just glares at them all.

Yoko: I went back to the locker rooms after my match. Something very important of mine is missing. I looked everywhere, and I've come to the conclusion that someone snuck in while I was competing, and stole it. So I'm going to ask very politely that whoever stole my homework disc, come out here right now and return it.

A short time passes, and no one appears. Yoko walks toward the ropes facing the entrance.

Yoko: If I have to ask again and no one shows up, I'm going to get VERY angry.

The pause continues, and just as Yoko is about to speak again “The Magnificent Seven” hits and the crowd erupts into a storm of cheering. Amo emerges from backstage, holding a small disc and a microphone. Yoko bores a hole in his skull with her stare as he makes his way to the ring.

Yoko: .....So, it was you….I suspected as much. I'm glad you were honest and came out here to return my homework.

Amo doesn’t speak; He just uses his very considerable height advantage to look down at Yoko. This makes her a little uncomfortable, but she gives no outward sign of this.

Yoko: Well? Hand it over.

Amo just continues staring, and his expression gets just a little colder.

Amo: ...You hit me with a croquet mallet.

Yoko reaches for the disc, but Amo holds it way up in the air out of her reach, still fixing Yoko with his gaze. Yoko is getting more angry, but also more worried.

Amo: You HIT me with a CROQUET MALLET.

Yoko: I did. But it wasn't personal, I swear.

Yoko maintains her defiant stance. Amo looks around at the audience, then back to Yoko, his face expressionless…..then, he seems to lighten up a little and shrugs.

Amo: Oh, right, I see. I'm a reasonable man, I can understand that.

Amo smiles, and Yoko doesn’t like it one bit.

Amo: So I hope that you can practice what you preach, because this isn’t personal either.

He tosses the homework disc into the front row of the audience. Fans grab for it, and break it into small pieces. The rest of the arena cheers loudly. Yoko looks at the fans, dumbfounded – but then her eyes flare with cold rage.

Yoko: All right, Amo….Like I said, this wasn’t personal – but you just made it that way. Big mistake.

Yoko lashes out with a kick, but Amo’s alert and he jumps back. A fight’s in the offing, but then Chairman Ginger's music begins to play and he quickly runs from the backstage area with a microphone, looking not at all pleased with this turn of events.

Ginger: No, no, no, no, no, no. You two are NOT doing this!

Ginger gets to the ring, slightly out of breath, and climbs in.

Ginger: We have to move on to the next match, we DO NOT have time for this….we rent this place by the hour, you know! Settle it some other time.

Yoko: But he destroyed my homework!

Ginger: For starters, Miss Satoshi, while you’re in this building you’re being paid by this company. And carrying out personal work on company time is theoretically a very serious breach of contract. I’ve turned a blind eye until now, but if anything like this happens again, or you’re late for a scheduled match, I will have to strongly consider banning you from bringing your computer here on the basis of this incident.

Yoko: But………I'm going to fail the assignment because of him!

Ginger: Let it be a life lesson. We have to move on with the show, I think you should go back to your locker room. And in future, make sure your studies do NOT interfere with your contractual obligations if you want to remain a member of this federation.

Yoko: But...

Ginger (getting visibly angry): You don’t know when to stop digging, do you? Do you want me to fine you as well? GO!

Flower of Carnage cues as Ginger says go, and Yoko reluctantly exits the ring and heads to the back, leaving Ginger and Amo in the ring.

Amo whispers something to Ginger.

Ginger: I'll think about it.

The show cuts to commercial break as they leave the ring.

Match 4: Double Oh Four vs TNT (Ending events credit: TNT)

Poor Philip’s been fighting against all manner of interruptions all night, but he stoically pushes on with the job in hand.

Philip: Now approaching the ring, the first participant for our fourth match……..Double – Oh Four!

“Doll Daga Buzz Buzz Ziggety Zag” by Marylin Manson kicks up, and 004 is greeted by the crowd with affection. He returns this by climbing the turnbuckles and saluting the fans before turning back to face the entrance; he knows he has a very tough opponent to face, but he’s determined to make the best of it.

Then the music shifts into “Away” by Mercy Drive, and the fans are divided as to how to react when TNT appears, the very image of confidence as always.

Philip: And his opponent, from Chicago Illinois……….TNT!

The former entertainment champ stalks to the ring, ready to get to work and do what he does best. TNT has been slowly but surely picking up a fanbase due to his hard work and enviable mic skills, and so there are competing chants in the arena as the men face one another down.

Bell Rings.

TNT starts off with some verbal battering of 004, taunting him as the pair circle the ring. 004 brushes it aside though and locks up with TNT, struggling with him for a few seconds before forcefully shoving him away. TNT glares and then rockets back, clotheslining 004; he rebounds from the ropes and goes for an encore as 004 springs back up, but this time 004 stands tough and TNT actually takes quite a knock as he crashes right into his opponent. Stunned for just a second, 004 doesn’t waste the opportunity and he lays down one, two three blows before executing a belly to belly suplex with release. 004 covers but it’s a non starter and the pair are both up again in the blink of an eye. More blows are traded until TNT gets in an explosive kick to 004’s chest that makes him stagger back to the ropes; with great skill TNT suplexes 004 back over his head, throwing him quite some distance as he lets go, and then spins in a fluid movement to execute the Rolling Thunder before 004 can regain his wits. TNT makes a pin, and gets a solid 2 before 004 is away. 004 gives TNT some lip, TNT comes right back and the crowd loves it as the pair play up to the max, each getting their fans behind them so that the whole place is cheerfully rowdy. A change of pace is the next idea that enters TNT’s head; as 004 makes a swift charge he counters it into a spinebuster to get 004 on the mat, and then sets up the Walls of Jericho. 004 claws at the mat, but TNT doesn’t want to give an inch to his opponent and they struggle for every centimeter as 004 puts the pain out of his mind and slowly travels toward the ropes. After a couple of minutes he gets there and TNT has to release him, but TNT is pleased to see that he has drained a significant amount of energy from 004, and he carefully thinks through his next move as 004 stands up, his fans yelling their hearts out to try and put fresh energy into their idol.

TNT is most comfortable when dictating the pace of the match, so 004 decides that he has to take this away from TNT and move things along more quickly. 004 advances and watches TNT’s expression as he raises his arms as if to grapple; TNT seems quite content with this so instead 004 drops his arms again and runs around, trying to get behind TNT. TNT spins, keeping his eyes on 004, but 004 speeds up and TNT has to rotate very quickly on the spot to keep pace. This eventually has the desired effect of cocking up TNT’s sense of balance, and he can’t help but stagger in a comical fashion, and as soon as he sees this 004 gets close and starts punching and kicking. TNT tries to respond but finds it most unfair that his opponent is hovering in and out of his vision with all the control of a child’s lost helium balloon in a force 8 gale, and his shots are wildly off course. Once he’s done some damage, 004 unleashes his stone cold stunner, and TNT drops like a sack of potatoes. 004’s fans are ecstatic as he makes the pin, 1…..2…..th- kickout! Somehow TNT’s befuddled brain makes him react, and 004 thumps the canvas to vent his frustration. Still, he pulls TNT up, but now TNT is starting to get his senses back in order……however he weaves about, selling a dummy and tricking everyone in to thinking he’s still incapacitated. 004 gets behind TNT and takes hold of him for the German Piledriver….but at the last second, TNT spins around, hoists 004 up and sends him for his Last Ride. The ring shakes with the impact, but TNT doesn’t pin; instead he pulls 004 up again and literally blows up any hopes he has for victory with his C4 (TestDrive). TNT covers, and 004 has insufficient energy left to break free before the 3 count is given.

Philip: Here is your winner……..TNT!

In his mind TNT had never doubted his victory, but this makes it no less pleasing and he climbs the buckles, simultaneously acknowledging his supporters and flipping off those who are less keen on his particular style. 004 picks himself up; he is angry at himself for making a mistake and waiting too long to finish his opponent, but he keeps these feelings to himself as he heads back to the locker rooms, pausing to sign an autograph or two on the way. As 004 leaves, TNT walks to the ropes and signals for a microphone before heading back to the centre of the ring.

TNT: Well, I just wanted to say to everyone in his arena that, I LIVED up to my saying, and I Beat Double Oh 4, but I wanted to call out someone, a man that disrespected me backstage, the Lightweight Champion, Kross!

There’s a Pop for Kross's name.

TNT: C'mon you lil BITCH! You can't do nothing!! C'mon anytime, anyday! Huh?!

After a short silence 'Vater Unser' by E Nomine plays, and Kross comes out slowly with his white cloak on, to a huge pop by the crowd. TNT, being impatient leaps out of the ring and charges down towards Kross going for a clothesline, but Kross with one swift move removes his cloak and dodges TNT's clothesline and as TNT stops and turns around he gets hit with a kick by Kross and launched into the barricade. Kross picks TNT up and starts punching him as they come back towards the ring, and again he throws TNT face first into a steel barricade. But as Kross tries the move a third time TNT stops him then does a spinning dropkick to Kross to drop him. As they are still outside the ring, TNT gets back up and tries to throw Kross into the ring apron and follows, but as TNT follows Kross, Kross runs and leaps up onto the apron and jumps and turns back to hit TNT with a kick straight to the face with the Redeemer as TNT falls, out cold.

Kross then comes back up the ramp and gets the Lightweight belt and waits for TNT to get up. He hits TNT in the face with the belt to yet again knock him out. The crowd is loving this, as Kross gets back into the ring with TNT to finish him off he sets up for the Divine Wrath, but as he's on the top rope, Jakie comes storming in from the crowd and shoves Kross off, and Kross gets launched and gullotined on the ropes, rolling around holding his throat. Jakie also gets a loud pop. TNT is trying to get up but Jakie comes and hits him with a running DDT to knock him down, then Jakie waits for Kross to get up and as Kross gets up Jakie goes for the Last Resort, but Kross pushes him away, and they start brawling as Jakie throws Kross shoulder first into the steel post as the crowd cringes. Then Kross misses a clothesline, and gets put into a chokehold by Jakie, then Jakie drops Kross with a STO in that chokehold to hit him with the Jakie Drop. Jakie then takes the Lightweight belt and poses on the turnbuckle; he jumps off and turns around to be met by an RKO from nowhere by TNT, and TNT pops up from the RKO and looks down on Jakie with intense eyes. TNT then looks at the Lightweight Title and holds it up to examine it, he looks at it in awe, and then smiles evilly and stands on top of Kross's and Jakie's chests while holding the belt high above his head to the Crowd’s loud disapproval.

Cut to Commercials.

Segment: What Will Mr. Fury Ever Do? (Credit: RDK)

After the fourth match concludes, RDK is shown with Fury in his personal gymnasium. RDK is showing Fury pictures of The Macho Man's good old days, and Fury doesn’t like it, but he stays there to try and complete his plan...

RDK: And here, is when The Macho Man won Tag Team Gold With Ridley! Boy oh Boy, was that a night! And then my GFWWE World Heavyweight title reign when I defeated the current Junior Champ, GooeyGarth! And then of course there’s my infamous stable vs. Stable match at...

Fury: You know RDK, your career wasn’t really much...

The crowd boos loudly, and RDK looks hurt.

RDK: How could you SAY SUCH A THING ABOUT THE MACHO MAN!

Fury: Well, let’s look a little closer, shall we? You won tag Titles with a maniac, which gave you a huge advantage, your 3 NWT title reigns meant less then a Junior title reign here, your "infamous" stable vs. stable match is nothing compared to the gauntlet in which I defended my Junior Heavyweight Championship! Your GFWWE Title Win was from a guy who’s now a lower mid card! Your reign lasted 3 lousy weeks! And lets see who you defended it against...Immortal Hulk Hogan and Da Outsider, whoop di doo! Both people who don’t compete in the sport anymore! And when you came to ACW, your reign lasted 1 day! Like come on! Even DWB had a longer reign! Then you turn into a Badass Commissioner, the highlight of your career (Not that it’s much of one) and you go around beating up openers and get a World title shot and lose! Then you go Macho up on random mid cards and then get a tag title shot, which you also lose! THEN you get all "Macho" and take down V-3, 3 different times to get the title you have around your waist as we speak. Your Hell In A Cell TLC Iron Man Match was a 4 and a half stars match, but I always put on five star matches, and that’s what your gonna be a part of, at Samhain, when I end your pathetic career!

RDK has not a word to say, Fury smiles evilly and makes his way to the door, but then...RDK opens up his mouth to say...

RDK: You’re so gonna be pupil material Fury! I look forward to the match!

Fury, pissed, slams the door, furious that his plan to make RDK feel useless failed. Fury stomps off to his locker room to catch the main event, and think of a plan to make RDK lose his edge before Samhain….

Fade out.
