Introduction: Payback Time (Credit: Amo)
The show opens with a shot of WCW’s office; he is doing some paperwork. Suddenly, the door swings open and Bob charges in looking furious. He is looking like he went to hell and back, with a bruised, cut-up face and a bandaged hand, which is no surprise after the harsh match with Bladeshadow followed by the brutal beating at the hands of TNT. Amo strolls in behind him, looking much more calm than Bob, and stops to admire his reflection in the mirror on the wall before walking up to WCW.
Bob: Mr. Chairman, I'll be quick to the point. TNT disrespected me, my championship, and the whole breakdancing community! I want him tonight, right now in a match!
WCW ignores them for a moment, and then looks up from his paperwork.
WCW: What makes you think you can come in here and demand a match like that? I can’t just magically book a match because you want one.
Amo: Don’t forget about me, Mr. WCW. My match with TNT on Monday was interfered with. I want a rematch, so that I can prove that I can beat him in a fair fight.
Bob slams both his fists into the table with surprising strength, toppling over a box of pencils in the process.
Bob: We are asking you for this match because you’re the Chairman of ACW. Oh, I'm sorry I forgot you’re only the Co-Chairman. Am I in the wrong office, or are you going to give me my match?
WCW looks both Bob and Amo up and down, while a wide smirk slowly spreads across his face.
WCW: Now don't get me wrong Bob, I never said I wasn’t going to give you a match. It’s obvious the fans like both you and Amo. And I simply can’t deny the fans. As a matter of fact, so Amo wont be left out, I'll make it a Tag match so both of you can have a piece of TNT.
Amo: I'm fine with that, me and Bob make a great team!
Amo poses next to Bob, but Bob looks like something is troubling him.
Bob: Amo and I can take TNT in a tag match easily, but who is his partner going to be?
At this question WCW’s grin grows wider and an evil look can be seen in his eye.
WCW: Since this match is on such short notice, I’ll have to ask around for someone willing to partake in this tag match of yours. As a matter of fact, you two probably won’t know by the time your match starts…….since it’s going to be the first contest tonight. I guess it will just have to be a surprise. Now, I have work to do, so I’ll have to ask both of you to leave my office.
As Bob and Amo leave, Bob turns on his boom box to full blast to intentionally piss WCW off. WCW, however, just smiles at them as they leave. Once the door closes, however, he breaks out in laughter. Still chuckling, he presses a button on his intercom with an expectant look on his face.
WCW: I’ve given the guy carte blanche to do as he pleases, so now he can return the favour.
Fade Out.

Match 1: Bob & Amo v TNT & Mystery Partner
The crowd has been in a lively mood since entering the ACW arena, but their excitement grows even further as they watch the opening to the show. Philip steps up into the ring to start things off in the proper manner.
Philip: Tonight’s first match is a tag team contest, set for one fall. Now entering the arena, from Los Angeles,…….Amo the Great!
”The Magnificent Seven” hits, and Amo greets the crowd with a pure white smile and a pose before heading to the ring, where he “vogues” a little more as he waits for Bob.
Right on time, “Stomp it……” blares into the arena, and Bob dances out under the black lights as the crowd cheers.
Philip: And his tag partner……..also from LA , Bob!
Bob continues to show off all the way to the ring, where he greets Amo and readies himself for the arrival of TNT and his hastily arranged partner.
“TNT” kicks up, and the crowd starts their booing before TNT has even set foot on the entrance ramp.
Philip: Now presenting their opponents, first from Chicago Illinois,…………TNT!
Bob and Amo don’t take their eyes off of TNT as he approaches the ring; TNT wears a confident smirk and he prowls around his opponents, who stand side by side in a gesture of solidarity.
There is a brief pause to allow the crowd’s anticipation to peak; then, without warning, “Wait and Bleed” explodes over the sound system and the crowd roars with anger as TNT’s partner strides out into the arena lights…….
Philip: And finally, from Cameron North Carolina………PDogg!
Bob and Amo watch Pdogg’s approach; they stay calm and do not appear overly concerned, but each knows that PDogg is one of the toughest wrestlers in the entire fed, and that on what they have seen of his actions since their arrival that he is willing to do whatever is necessary to get what he wants. TNT sneers at Bob and Amo, and clearly considers them to be out of their depth with 2 wrestlers who have (in his eyes) similar prowess. As the ref calls the parties to order, Bob indicates to Amo that he will start, and Amo agrees; TNT is also keen to make the early running and PDogg just shrugs. As far as he is concerned, PDogg is confident that he can put either of the newbies down once he gets into the match, and having TNT soften them up first suits him just fine.
Bell Rings.
Bob’s anger at TNT’s sneak attack on him on Warfare has not diminished, and he goes straight into attack mode with a flurry of punches and kicks interspersed with bursts of dance moves. TNT however has now had the opportunity to watch Bob’s style of fighting in his match with Blade, and he dodges several shots before blocking Bob to launch an attack of his own, kicking and punching Bob in the chest and gut back into a neutral corner. TNT continues his assault but Bob grabs the ropes and lifts himself up to kick TNT away; in a single smooth movement he gets his feet on to the top rope and jumps forward, tucking in his knees to strike TNT in the chest before he can get back up. Bob pins, but TNT escapes easily before the 2 count. The pair both rise to their feet and each decides on a running attack; Bob tries for a clothesline but TNT catches him and lands a strong Spinebuster. TNT also pins, but Bob is just as quick to extract himself. TNT mocks Bob, imitating his dancing in a very poor fashion; enraged, Bob charges TNT but is caught out with a superkick. Bob crashes down, but he rolls aside before TNT can drop to pin him, and takes TNT’s legs from under him with his B Boy sweep. Bob leaps up, tags to Amo, and Amo collects TNT; he drags him to the post at his own corner and climbs up, holding his opponent with his huge strength, before nailing a reverse tigerbomb. The crowd roars, but Bob and Amo aren’t through; Amo tags straight back to Bob, who rushes in and executes his Tornado spin – and - leg drop move before covering. TNT only just manages to break out before the 3 count, and Bob yells at him for his disrespect as TNT drags himself back to a standing position. TNT is dazed, but he is determined not to be shown up by Bob again; Bob backs off and goes for his “people run”, but as he approaches TNT counters with a standing dropkick of his own. Bob is somewhat stunned, and TNT uses this brief respite to hit his Gory Bomb, making the crowd wince; TNT is breathing hard and as he turns he sees PDogg give him a small nod, and TNT takes the hint to make the tag to his far more experienced partner.
PDogg closes in on Bob, and shows he means business with a double arm facebuster. PDogg makes a pin to test his opponent’s condition, and Bob breaks free just after the 2 count. Bob retreats to the ropes, and PDogg follows; He takes a swing at Bob with his fist but Bob counters by grabbing his arm and jumping over the ropes to wrench it painfully against them. Pdogg grimaces, and his expression darkens as he feels a twinge of pain from his old shoulder injury that sidelined him in the run up to SDS; Bob is back in the ring and on the attack once more, but Pdogg strikes back immediately with his PDG (doublearm DDT). Pdogg shouts insults at Bob and tells him to stay down as he pins, but this just makes Bob more angry; he bursts out of the cover at 2.5 and as Pdogg comes in once more he uses a straight DDT of his own to floor him. Amo yells to Bob, and Bob drags himself to his corner to make the tag just milliseconds before Pdogg is able to stop him; the crowd noise surges as Amo enters the ring and goes toe to toe with Pdogg. Pdogg has considerable punching power but it pales in comparison to Amo’s, who sends Pdogg to the mat with a huge uppercut. The crowd cheers and Amo cannot resist a quick pose, but against a foe such as Pdogg this is a costly error; Pdogg rises back to his feet behind him and Amo turns around to be caught for one of Pdogg’s preferred suplexes. Pdogg is a master of the suplex and he hits a second and then a third; he pins Amo, and gets a 2 count before he kicks out. Amo is taken by surprise by Pdogg’s combination of speed and power, but he is not going to be intimidated by his opponent and he batters Pdogg with his fists before hitting a standard powerbomb, and follows it with a spinout version. Amo poses once more, this time very briefly, and he pins Pdogg for a near 3 count; Amo grins, but Pdogg is using Amo’s inexperience against him, and has allowed the near fall to lull Amo into a false sense of security. With his left arm raised to the crowd, Amo takes hold of Pdogg in a reverse headlock with his right arm and goes to set up his Amo Driver; as he tries to lift Pdogg however his opponent breaks free and quickly delivers a german suplex that lands Amo on his head rather than his back; Amo is dazed, and Pdogg amazes everyone by lifting his sizable opponent for his “Bad Blood” Canadian Backbreaker to DDT finisher. The whole ring shakes as the move impacts, and Pdogg hooks the leg as he pins; Amo tries to react, but he kicks out just a fraction of a second too late and the 3 count is given, upsetting the crowd in a big way.
Philip: Here are your winners…………. TNT and Pdogg!
The match may be over, but TNT and PDogg are determined to make their mark on their unfortunate opponents. PDogg calls to TNT, who throws him a chair from the apron; with an evil grin PDogg smashes the chair into Amo’s face as he gets back up and the big man falls to the mat with a crash. Bob tries to stop the attack, but TNT blocks him and overwhelms him with his punching power; Bob drops, and PDogg hands TNT the chair which he uses to lay Bob out. Amo is bleeding and he tries to stand again, but TNT kicks him in the head and laughs as PDogg administers a further chair shot; then, laughing, Pdogg and TNT leave the ring and head backstage, completely unconcerned by the crowd’s angry shouting and yelling as the medical staff head to the ring to attend to their victims.

Segment: Underhand tactics (Credit: Spider)
The camera shows LilJakie and BK London in their locker room, Jakie is helping London prepare for his match.
London: Thanks for helping me get ready. Well, I’m off
Jakie: Ok, good luck in your match.
London walks out of the locker room and heads toward the ring; Jakie continues to get ready for his own match, but as he does so Spider walks into the locker room and sneaks up behind him.
Spider: Boo!
Jakie turns around and gets a face full of Spider’s fist, he then grabs him and rams Jakie into the lockers, breaking them. Spider grabs him and nails him over the head with his title.
Jackie is laid out on the ground, and Spider grabs a chair in the corner as Jakie is beginning to get up.
Jackie: Spider....BK will.....
BOOM!!, Jakie is laid out again, and he is a bloody mess from the massive chairshot he just received.
Spider: BK will what Jakie? Nothing, exactly.
The camera pans up to Spider’s head showing a sadistic smile on his face, he then turns and walks out of the locker room.
Fade out.

Segment: Something worth fighting for
In the backstage area, BK London is warming up as he waits to be called for his upcoming match. As he does this his opponent, El Loco, swaggers into the same area with his tag belt on his shoulder.
EL: I should bother getting too warmed up BK, I’m going to wipe the floor with you in record time tonight.
BK: That’s what you think, molecule mind. You’re going to lose to me, just like you and your partner are going to lose those tag belts to us at Heatwave.
EL (smirking): You’re all talk, BK……..you only won your last couple of matches because you had an unfair advantage over your opponents. If you think I’m worried by the likes of you, you’ve got a screw loose.
BK: Oh yeah? Well if you’re so sure about that, Loco, then why are we waiting until the PPV for this title match? El Loco, I challenge you and Mcfoley to defend those belts on the very next Warfare!
EL: Hahaha…….you seriously expect me to fall for that? Forget it.
BK: Oh, that’s fine then. You’re obviously too scared to fight us………..I understand.
EL (getting angry): Scared? Me? I fear no one, asshole, no one!
BK: Yeah, whatever you say……coward.
el (Losing his cool): All right, London, I’ve had enough of your crap! You want your butts handed to you, then that’s what you’ll get! And I will start that process right now!!
BK: Ah, our upcoming match…….yes, that slipped my mind. What do you say we make it a little more……….interesting?
EL: Interesting? What are you blathering on about now?
BK: What I mean, Loco, is that the person who wins our match tonight should have some say over the tag team title contest. If you manage to beat me, Jakie and I will accept any stipulation on the title match that you choose to make, no arguments – you can have a cage match, hardcore, hell even one of your twisted Poco Loco Extremes if you want. But if I win, then I get to pick the stipulation instead. It’s not a hard concept to grasp for people of normal intelligence……….but I’ll give you a little longer to think about it before you answer.
EL (spitting nails): That’s it! You can insult me as much as you like London, because I’m going to take you apart! And when I do, I’ll choose a match that will make you and your friend wish you’d never heard of the Poco Locos!
El Loco storms off, determined to make BK rue his challenge; BK just smiles and continues to flex his muscles in preparation for the match.
Fade Out.

Match 2: El Loco v BK London (Credit: White Rose)
The highly emotional crowd in the ACW arena are on their feet and expecting this next bout to be an excellent contest. They are talking loudly amongst themselves until they catch a glimpse of Philip entering the ring and putting the microphone to his mouth.
Philip: Ladies and Gentleman, the next match is scheduled for one fall, the winner of this match will pick the stipulation of the Tag Team Title match. Introducing first, from Long Island, New York, El Loco!
Faint by Linkin Park hits the arena and the crowd boos loudly, as El Loco comes out from behind the curtain, the tag team title on his shoulder. He walks with a slow, cool, and confident stride, but the crowd’s booing will not cease. Loco shrugs them off as he enters the ring and takes his corner. Philip begins to speak again.
Philip: And next, from Brooklyn, New York, Please welcome BK London!
Warrior part 2 by Lloyd Banks hits the arena and the crowd cheers loudly, over the past few weeks, BK London’s Internet cult has grown into a mass obsession. Fans all through out the arena cheer BK London and a smile comes across his face for a brief second, though it is quickly eclipsed by his cocky grin. He runs to the ring, enters it, and takes his corner. Philip leaves the ring and the match is ready to begin.
Bell Rings.
Loco charges BK, but quickly receives a hip toss. Loco springs to his feet and is hit by a flipping dropkick. Loco rises a third time and is hit by a thunderous running enziguri. BK goes for the pin, the Referee counts 1….2, Loco counters the pin into a roll up, the Referee counts 1….2, but BK kicks out. Both men jump to their feet and exchange punches, but BK finally gains the edge and throws Loco out of the ring. With Loco down, BK tries for an Asai Moonsault off of the ropes, but Loco moves out of the way just in time. Loco picks BK up and gives him an Irish whip into the steel steps, this causes the crowd to boo loudly and chat "Loco Sucks". El Loco picks BK up, slides him into the ring, and then slides into the ring himself. He picks BK up and hits him with a Piledriver. With BK down, Loco climbs up to the nearest turnbuckle and jumps off with an excellent flying elbow drop. Loco goes for the pin and the Referee counts 1……2……but somehow Loco kicks out in the nick of time. Loco begins to pound the mat in frustration and climbs the top turnbuckle yet again. Loco measures the distance carefully and comes of the top with a flying body splash, but BK moves out of the way and Loco crashes to the mat. Both men are down and fatigued, they have both taken high risks early on and are paying for it now. The chants of "Lets Go BK" fill the arena as both me rise to their feet at virtually the same time, but the cheers from the fans have reinvigorated BK and he hits a running cross body block on Loco into the pin. BK has Loco down for the pin, the Referee counts 1……2, but Loco kicks out. BK gets to his feet and stalks Loco, and as Loco gets to his feet BK attempts a Shades of Michael’s superkick. Loco grabs BK’s leg, scoops him into a fisherman’s suplex, and the Referee counts 1……..2……, but BK kicks out. Loco signals for a Powerbomb and it appears as if victory may be at hand, but as he lifts BK up, BK reverses the move into a face buster. BK finally sees his big break, he climbs the top turnbuckle, measures the distance, and jumps off to the cheers of the fans and the flashes of their cameras. BK jumps of and hits Loco with the From London to Brooklyn, A cannonball Shooting Star Press. BK stays on top of Loco into the pin, The Referee counts 1…….2………3 and the crowd cheers loudly.
Bell Rings.
Philip: The Winner of this bout, BK London!
The crowd cheers loudly as Philip hands the mic to BK London and exits the ring.
BK: Hey McFoley, Loco, if you want to know the stipulation, wait till Monday. In the mean time, polish those titles up, cause they are gonna be ours soon.
BK leaves the ring to the cheers and admiration of the fans. Loco staggers to his feet, grabs his title belt and leaves as he came, he is now fully aware of the threat BK London is to his tag title. This war is far from over.

Segment: Plus ça change……..
In one of the many locker rooms backstage, Latino and AK are getting ready for their first match since Seven Deadly Sins. AK is already dressed; Latino is lacing up his boots and trying to check his hair in the mirror at the same time, which is not the most successful multi tasking combination ever devised.
Latino: So, you ready to get back into action, Mamacita? Our opponents tonight aren’t going to be pushovers……….I don’t trust them one bit.
AK: I agree, I don’t trust them either……….but we can deal with them. They’ve been disrespecting other fed members for too long, and it’s time someone evened the score.
Latino: Pdogg’s not going to like it one bit……..he’s changed so much, the guy creeps me out.
AK: Well I won’t be intimidated by him……….poor Blade has no choice but to do what he says, but the rest of us aren’t restricted in the same way – someone has to take a stand.
Latino shudders a little and stays quiet. AK understands what is on his mind and walks over next to him.
AK: I know you’re worried Latino……….we both know what happened the last time we tried something like this. The costs were high……………but we came through it, together, and we can do it again……….. the only way bastards like Pdogg can win is if allow them to make us too scared to fight back, and I’ll quit this business altogether before I back down from an asshole like him. Pdogg is no Ridley, and if we can face him then we can face anyone.
Latino: Ridley…………..now that really does creep me out. How the heck can he be back? We were both there, the guy died less that 2 feet away from us! And then there’s the fact that he supposedly doesn’t remember anything that he did here…………
AK: You think he’s bluffing, then? That this is all an act? If it is, then Rose at least deserves an Oscar.
Latino: You can put the wolf into sheep’s clothing, mamacita, but it will still bite you if you let your guard down. I want to believe that he’s changed as much as anyone here, but after all that he and Rose have done I just can’t accept that it’s anything other than a charade. The day he proves it to be otherwise will be the day hell freezes over.
Latino finishes his preparations and the tag partners leave the room together.
Fade out.

Match 3: Rose v Liljakie
After the events of Warfare, no one is sure what Rose’s state of mind will be, and they await her arrival with interest.
Philip: The next contest is an intergender match, set for one fall. Introducing first, from Dover NH…….Liljakie!
Jakie walks out into the arena; he has a sticking plaster over the wound made by Spider, and although he comes to the ring confidently it remains to be seen how much the sneak attack has compromised him; Jakie hails the crowd once he gets to the ring, but he knows that this will be his toughest match so far in ACW. Although Jakie has been given the option of setting a stipulation, he has opted for a straightforward match since all the evidence available to him suggests that adding any kind of weaponry or flexibility for “creativity” will only favour Rose’s vicious streak.
“Scars of Time” hits, and there is a slight delay before Rose appears on the stage.
Philip: And his opponent, from St Petersburg, Russia……..Alexandra Kaesar, the White Rose!
Rose looks outwardly calm; she gives the crowd her usual scowl as she heads to the ring, but everyone knows that she must be suffering a great deal of internal trauma, and the crowd is sure that Rose will take out some of her pain on her unfortunate opponent.
Jakie is not expecting a handshake or greeting, and he is ready to fight the second Rose enters the ring. Rose regards Jakie without emotion, and she continues to stare and make him uncomfortable as the match officially gets underway.
Bell Rings.
Jakie does not want to give Rose any opportunity to mess with his mind, so he gets straight down to business, punching her a few times before knocking her down with a short – arm clothesline. Rose is straight back up and she grabs Jakie for a suplex; as he rises back to his feet Rose kicks him brutally in the head before he can stand up straight, and Jakie holds back a cry as Rose manages to hit the same spot injured by Spider a little earlier. Jakie is not at full power after Spider’s attack, but his spirit is as strong as ever and the crowd begins to call and chant for him; lifted by their support Jakie stops Rose from applying a full nelson hold, breaking away and then running in to grab Rose and deliver a 2 handed bulldog. Jakie covers, but Rose breaks away well before 2 and her expression is becoming blacker as her cold fury increases. Jakie is not intimidated, and he hits an underhook DDT before covering again to get a full 2 count this time. Rose fumes, and she pokes Jakie in the eyes before dragging him to the corner and producing a DDT of her own, this one a Tornado variation; Rose pins and she also receives a count of 2 before Jakie breaks away from her. Both participants are on their feet once more, and Rose whips Jakie back to the corner to continue her assault; she batters him around the head and upper body, but Jakie retreats by climbing up the post. Rose follows and looks to set up a superplex, but Jakie dislodges her and shoves her away to the mat. Jakie jumps off and tries to plant his feet into Rose’s gut, but she rolls aside; Jakie however shows some sense by going for such a simple move, as he lands harmlessly on his feet and is able to be ready and waiting to meet Rose as she gets back up. Jakie is fond of DDTs, and he produces a powerful Brainbuster variation to thrill the crowd and keep Rose down until past the 2 count. Jakie grins at his success, and Rose eyes him maliciously; she has allowed him to get in some lucky hits, but now she resolves to utterly dismantle him and she starts to smile as she decides how best to torture him.
Rose and Jakie circle, and Jakie continues his offensive; he knocks Rose down near the turnbuckle and climbs up the post for a dragonrana; Rose however is misleading him and although she looks weak as she stands, once Jakie leaps up for the move she dodges and he lands heavily on the mat. Rose matches dragon with dragon, in her case using her infamous dragon sleeper hold; Jakie thrashes and tries to break out, but Rose is far too practiced in the use of the move to be easily dislodged, and she smiles as Jakie fights for breath. Gradually he starts to slump in her grip, and the referee comes forward to check on him; he raises Jakie’s hand once, and it slips down limply; a second time, and the result is the same. Just as the referee is about to raise Jakie’s hand a 3rd and final time, Rose releases the hold of her own volition; having nearly choked Jakie out, Rose now delights in reawakening him with the agony of her favourite submission holds. Rose applies a single Boston crab, and Jakie is wrenched mentally back to the waking world by the pain; he tries to scrabble to a rope but he is disorientated from a lack of oxygen and he does not have the strength to break free from Rose. As Jakie tries to fight Rose ups the pressure by switching to a full Boston Crab, and Jakie holds back a cry of pain; Rose can feel the tension in his whole body as she tightens her grip, and she smiles widely at the distress she is causing. Jakie is managing to regain some mental focus, however, and he starts to make some progress toward the ropes; Rose holds him back for a few moments and then Jakie succeeds in making it to the edge of the ring. The referee orders Rose to release the hold, and she does so without too much concern; it is only sheer willpower that brings Jakie to his feet once more, and Rose is an expert in breaking wills. She closes in on Jakie, and he lands a dropkick to Rose’s head and pins, but Rose kicks away after 2 and is right back on her feet; having briefly allowed Jakie a glimmer of hope, she now delights in crushing it with a dragon suplex followed by her Mark of the Rose finisher (doublearm DDT). Jakie lies on the mat, and Rose pins, 1,2 – but at 3 she lifts Jakie’s head up and smirks as the crowd yell at her furiously for prolonging Jakie’s torment. Rose drags Jakie to the turnbuckle and locks on her turnbuckle figure four; this time Jakie cannot hold in his cries and he howls as Rose increases the pressure to maximum. Rose screams at Jakie to give in, and Jakie resists as long as he can; in his mind however he sees an image of the tag team gold which he has a chance to win on Warfare, and Jakie realises that salvaging his pride could cost he and his partner the belts. Finally, and for the sake of his friend BK, Jakie gives in and taps out; the crowd roars with anger at Rose, but she just mocks them and the defeated Jakie as the referee raises her hand.
Philip: Here is your winner……….the White Rose!
Rose looks down disdainfully at her crushed opponent; the crowd shouts and boos her angrily for her cruelty, but Rose does not care about them or anyone else. She walks back to the locker rooms, lost again in her thoughts; Jakie staggers back up and gets a rousing cheer as he also makes his way backstage, having discovered first hand why Rose is one of the most feared superstars in ACW.

Segment: Two’s company, four’s a tag match
In the corridors, the sound of laughter is heard; from around a corner Pdogg emerges. He is back in his street clothes and he has his arm around Dream, and it looks like he is heading home.
PDogg: And when I hit that big oaf with the chair……Dream honey, you should have seen his face. Priceless.
Dream: You’re so smart P, you always know what to do. And soon you’ll be ACW Champion……..
PDogg: Damn straight. I’ve got Blade under my thumb, the guy’s a nervous wreck and that’s just the way I want it. It’s a perfect plan…………WCW scratches my back and approves the matches I want, and I help him out like I did tonight and have fun in the process.
The two laugh again; as they walk along they pass Co – Chairman Gingerdude’s office, and the door opens as Ginger steps out into the hallway.
Ginger: Excuse me you two, but where do you think you’re going?
Pdogg (turning around): What does it look like, genius? We’re leaving…….I’m done for the night.
Ginger: Oh, I think not Pdogg……..there’s been a last minute change to the card. You’re one of our top superstars, and the fans haven’t seen you since SDS; quite frankly I’m appalled that WCW would insult you by putting you into the first match of the evening like that. But don’t worry, I’m going to fix it; tonight, you’re going to take the main event slot you so richly deserve!
Ginger’s tone suggests just a hint of sarcasm, and Pdogg turns to see him smiling in a way that Pdogg doesn’t like.
Pdogg: Hrumph. Whatever you say, Mr Co – Chairman……..(to Dream) I guess you’ll just have to wait a little longer while I whip someone else’s ass, baby.
Ginger (still smiling): Oh no, P, you misunderstand me. I wouldn’t even consider splitting you two lovebirds up, I know how much you enjoy one another’s company. So tonight, you two are going to spend some quality time in the ring……as a tag team.
Pdogg and Dream both look stunned by this.
Pdogg: Wha…….? But I’ve never tagged with Dream before, that’s not fair!
Dream: Are you saying you don’t think I’m good enough to tag with you? (Dream looks more than a little upset)
Pdogg: Whoa, no, no honey, that’s not what I meant………..(Pdogg glares at Ginger, who just smirks).
Ginger: Oh, I’m sure you two will do just fine…….and to make sure that the match is absolutely fair, your opponents will also be a mixed team.
PDogg and Dream stop arguing as they realise what Ginger has just said.
Ginger: That’s right kids………Viva La Raza, holmes!
Ginger grins and leaves Pdogg and Dream in the corridor as he goes back into his office.
Fade Out.

Match 4: Rey v Yoko Satoshi
Match 4 is highly anticipated by the crowd; Rey McFoley has been causing trouble for Yoko Satoshi since the PPV, and tonight presents Yoko with the chance to face him directly for the first time.
Philip: The next match is an intergender match, scheduled for one fall. Introducing first, from Okinawa Japan…………Yoko Satoshi!
Yoko gets a big positive reaction from the fans as she comes to the ring; she looks more focused than ever before, and she is resolved that no matter how concerned Rey is about her potential threat to his lightweight belt, his fears will be confirmed and greatly raised after she shows him what she is really capable of.
Philip: And her opponent, he is the ACW Lightweight Champion and one half of the ACW tag team champions………Rey McFoley!
Rey comes out with an arrogant swagger, flaunting his two belts to the crowd and getting them wound up and angry. He springs up to the apron and taunts Yoko, but she just smiles and taunts him back by motioning a belt around her waist. The referee takes the gold for safekeeping, and the pair get right down to business without a second further of delay.
Bell Rings.
Rey is considerably smaller that some of Yoko’s recent opponents, but he is also extremely quick and Yoko has to use all her skill to avoid his opening burst of attacking punches. Yoko kicks back at him, but Rey also slips past the blows and elbows Yoko in the face from the side, stopping her attack. Rey hits a DDT and pins, but Yoko escapes before the ref even starts counting. The two lock up together and try to find a weakness in their opponent; Yoko makes a breakthrough by stamping on Rey’s foot and following this with an impressive vertical suplex. Yoko also tries a pin, but the count has barely reached 1 before Rey shoves Yoko off of him, looking more annoyed with every second. Both participants are ready for more, and Rey tries to whip Yoko only to have it reversed. Rey thinks quickly and switches his attack, going for a crossbody; he jumps forward, but Yoko drops down and Rey misses. He keeps his head and rolls on landing before springing back from the ropes; this time Yoko is not quick enough and Rey lands a strong clothesline. Rey climbs up the nearest post and strikes Yoko with a double axe handle as she gets up; Rey rolls Yoko up and she breaks free just before the 2 count is given. Yoko now starts to get cross, and she kicks Rey in the gut 2 or 3 times before using her evenflow DDT; she does not go for the pin straight away but adds a leg drop to Rey’s neck, and Yoko secures a 2 count of her own. The pair continue to move about the ring, landing blows on one another, until Yoko whips Rey into a corner; Yoko runs in to drive her shoulder into Rey but Rey counters by charging back out of the corner and the pair smack into one another, banging heads and making them both somewhat dizzy. Rey makes a marginally quicker recovery and he applies a front facelock before hitting a shoulder neck breaker. Yoko is jarred painfully by the impact and Rey makes another pin; this time the count is almost at 2.5 before Yoko responds, and she starts to understand the qualities which have driven Rey’s successful pursuit of title glory in ACW.
Rey is keen to pile on the pressure, and he whips Yoko to the corner to deliver a counted 10 punch. A kick to the upper body makes Yoko slip down to a sitting position, and Rey runs in for the bronco buster; Yoko however rolls aside just when Rey is committed to the move, and he drives himself on to the ring post in a painful fashion. Yoko compounds the pain by rolling out of the ring, grabbing Rey’s legs and pulling hard to repeat the impact. Yoko finishes her combo by climbing up the post and dropping off the top to hit Rey in the chest; She drags him out of the corner and the count just passes 2 before Rey gets an arm in the air. Rey still feels pain from the injury to his groin, but it is the mental pain from what Yoko is doing that spurs him on; summoning all his speed, Rey flings himself against the ropes and is propelled forward to hit a body press on Yoko. Rey does not let Yoko get back up; instead, he locks on the crippler crossface and shouts insults at her as he tries to force Yoko to surrender. Yoko grits her teeth and forces herself to ignore the pain; she starts to edge to the ropes, and though Rey keeps trying to pull her back eventually she makes it after about a minute and a half. The referee counts to 5 and orders Rey to let go; Rey slams a fist down in frustration, but as Yoko freeds herself she immediately smacks Rey in the head before positioning him to set up for her own “ball and chain” finisher. Rey now has to endure the submission hold, but Yoko has not remembered to drag him all the way back to the centre of the ring, and after a few moments Rey is able to make a grab for the rope with a burst of energy. Yoko also has to obey the referee and release the hold, but she can see that Rey is vulnerable and she decides to make a quick grab for victory; as Rey gets up Yoko turns her back to him and kicks out backward on to his already injured groin, making sure that the ref is not in a position to see the move clearly. Rey’s face crumples and he bends over clutching the affected area; with lightning speed Yoko nails her Flying Guillotine (Fameasser) and rolls Rey up before he has a chance to react. The ref is quick to start counting, and despite his struggles Yoko just barely manages to hold the lightweight champion down to get the 1-2-3 and an upset win.
Philip: Here is your winner………Yoko Satoshi!
Yoko rolls away from Rey and slips out of the ring; she is right to be wary as Rey is almost purple with rage at his loss. She smiles and gestures at Rey, enraging him further, before she heads back to the locker rooms, a look of satisfaction on her face. The crowd jeers Rey and he flips them off before storming back up the ramp; he has been less than pleased with the night’s events and as he leaves the arena he moves swiftly though the backstage, clearly with a specific destination in mind.

Segment: A Fighting Champion
Rey Mcfoley is not a happy man as he stamps toward Gingerdude’s office; thoroughly incensed by Yoko’s victory, he is further angered by El Loco’s foolish acceptance of BK London’s challenge, and he is determined to get Ginger to cancel the match. He has already tried to have WCW do this, but WCW has angrily told him that he cannot alter a match set by the Co – chairman before shouting Rey out of his office, and Rey’s ears are still ringing from WCW’s yells as he bursts into Ginger’s room.
Ginger hears Rey enter as the door bangs against the wall, but he does not look up from his work.[/i]
Ginger: Didn’t your mother ever teach you to knock, Rey?
Rey: Screw that, Ginger, I’m here to talk business. BK tricked my partner into accepting the match on Warfare, I want it called off.
Ginger: Don’t fancy your chances, eh? I can’t say I blame you. But the match is made, and I’m not changing it.
Rey: But we only just won those titles! We shouldn’t have to defend them again so soon!
Ginger: Oh, I see. So you deserve special treatment, is that what you’re saying? You two only won those titles because Rose was forced to defend them alone, in a traumatised state, less than a week after SDS. So don’t you dare come complaining to me over a legitimate challenge, Rey.
Rey: This sucks! You’ve been on my case since you got that damn commissioner’s job……..well it makes no difference to me. I’ll enjoy humiliating one of your personal allies, whatever type of match he chooses. I’m a double champion, which is more than you’ve ever been or ever will be, so as far as I’m concerned you can kiss my……..
Rey doesn’t finish the sentence, but smirks and turns to leave. Ginger turns red with anger, and he calls Rey back with a cold, hard tone to his voice.
Ginger: You’re entitled to your opinion, Mr Mcfoley. But if you thought I was on your case before, then you just made things a whole lot harder for yourself. Since you’re a “double champion”, I think that you should work twice as hard………..so on Warfare, not only will you defend that tag team belt, but you will also put your lightweight championship on the line, against an opponent of my choosing.
Rey’s expression is a mix of shock and fury; he tries to speak but Ginger cuts him off.
Ginger: Rey I advise you to keep your mouth shut before you dig yourself even deeper into the dirt. Now kindly leave this office, I have a great deal to do.
Rey gives Ginger a lethal stare, but he takes the hint and goes, slamming the door hard on his way out.
End Segment.

Match 5: Macho Man RDK v Kid Krash & J Bone (Pre – match events credit: RDK)
Most of the fans have been patiently awaiting the return of the Macho Man RDK since SDS, and they are about to get their wish as RDK’s music hits and the crowd goes wild.
Philip: Ladies and Gentlemen, this next contest is a handicap match, scheduled for one fall! Introducing first, from ,…………Macho Man RDK!
RDK strides out on to the staging and beams as the crowd shout and cheer for him. He slaps hands with several fans on his way to the ring, and does the same with Philip upon his arrival. RDK takes a mic in hand and gestures to the crowd for a little quiet so that he can address them.
RDK: Hello All You MachoManiacs Out there!!!!
The crowd cheers again.
RDK: Now since The Macho Man is back, he wants to celebrate with MachoManiacs, Brudas and Jabronis alike! And let’s start it off with a Macho Man Chant!!!
The crowd goes insane, and RDK’s music hits once more; RDK slides out of the ring and belts back up to the stage area, where a rock band and a selection of gorgeous women have appeared on cue.
Whole Crowd: MACHO MACHO MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
RDK: WE ALL WANNA BE........
Crowd: A MACHO MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
RDK: EVERYBODY NOW!
EVERBODY: MACHO MACHO MAN!!!!!
This continues for a suitable interval until everyone except RDK is worn out from cheering, and RDK returns to the ring, walking around and surveying his adoring legions of fans.
RDK: WE all know that jabroni is the nacho man! (he points to a fat guy in the crowd eating nachos, and everybody looks at him).
Everbody: HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!!
RDK: (gesturing with his hand): Just the jabronis now! What do you think Bruda!
Jabronis: We think we can -
RDK: IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT YOU THINK!
The crowd cheers once more.
RDK: Ok everyone, one last time now……..let me hear you all!
The crowd starts up again, but then they are interrupted as x hits, and someone the crowd has never seen before enters the arena and enters the ring.
Philip: Now entering the arena, RDK’s first opponent……….from x, J Bone!
JB doesn’t show any sign of being intimidated by RDK; as he stalks around x hits and then Kid Krash steps out on to the stage, coming to the ring with haste to back up his partner.
Philip: And his partner, from X, Kid Krash!
Krash slides into the ring, and he and JB walk boldly up to RDK. The Macho man has held his temper thus far, but the disrespectful smirks on the faces of his opponents make him more than a little angry, and he challenges the newcomer upstart JB.
RDK: Who the hell are you, Mr tough guy? Did I say you could come down to this VERY ring and interrupt, The People's Champ, The Macho Man?
J Bone: I’m J Bone, and I don’t need anyone’s permission to give them an ass – whipping!
JB launches into an attack on RDK, and the ref hastily signals for the bell.
Bell Rings.
JB punches RDK several times; RDK is incensed by the newcomer’s cheek and he shrugs off the blows to knock JB down with a single massive blow. As he does so however, Krash comes behind him and starts to kick RDK in the small of the back; RDK spins around, grabs Krash and powerslams him into the mat to the cheers of the crowd. JB gets back up and attacks once more, pushing RDK back; Krash stays in a crouching position and RDK stumbles backward over him to land on his back. Krash jumps up and begins kicking RDK, and JB quickly joins in; they taunt RDK as they do this, and the crowd roars its disapproval. RDK however is not going to put up with this; he jumps straight back to his feet and glares at his opponents before unleashing a furious barrage of punches and kicks, taking on both his foes at once and flooring both of them before collecting the nearest, Krash, for a jumping powerbomb. RDK covers, but JB is on hand to make the save before the referee reaches 2. JB pulls RDK off and hits a strong snap suplex, and Krash follows with a top rope elbow drop; JB makes the pin, but RDK forces his way out well before the 2 count. RDK knows well the problems of fighting in handicap matches, but he also knows how to turn the situation to his advantage; he lays down blows on both his opponents before bouncing against the ropes and hitting a double clothesline. Both men drop, and RDK throws JB out through the ropes before concentrating on Krash; he whips him to the corner and executes a powerful guillotine kick before lifting and throwing Krash backward over his head. RDK pins, but Krash breaks out of his own accord just after 2, and he keeps RDK busy while JB recovers to the ring and hits a swanton from the post to collide with RDK back to back. RDK falls forward and Krash catches him; the pair hit a 3D on RDK and it takes a real burst of willpower from RDK to break out of the pin at 2.5.
The fans are willing RDK to show the two jabronis in the ring who’s boss, and RDK has no intention of disappointing them. JB and Krash attack together once more, but RDK is ready for this and he whips JB to a corner before sending Krash in on top of him. RDK adds his own weight to the pile and both his opponents sag down; RDK collects Krash and hits a northern lights suplex before hitting a five knuckle shuffle with spadeloads of attitude. RDK pins, and JB hauls himself out of the corner to stop the count. RDK rolls back to his feet and he exchanges blows with JB; JB hits RDK several times but RDK is no selling them and he gives JB a Hogan - style finger point, to the delight of the fans, before hitting his famous DDT and elbow drop combination. RDK pins again, and only the timely intervention of Krash prevents RDK from securing the 3 count. Krash yells at JB, who pulls himself together, and the pair combine forces once more to get themselves back into the match; Krash diverts RDK’s attention with a taunt so that JB can catch hold of him and hit a Samoan Drop. Krash is ready straight away and he keeps the pressure on with a top rope leg drop before RDK can rise; JB goes directly into a pin and RDK again only just escapes before 3. JB and Krash have demonstrated that they are no pushover jobbers, but now RDK can feel the fans’ energy surging, and he steps up to a whole new level to overcome the numbers disadvantage, whirling his fists to push both men back before dropkicking them simultaneously (one foot to each head). RDK backs off and waits for them to get back up; Krash is first to respond and RDK taunts him into charging so that he can eject him from the ring with a back body drop that bounces Krash against the ropes as he falls. JB is not far behind and RDK hits a roundhouse kick to the head as he comes in range; with the fans in raptures RDK signals for and hits the Rock Bottom. The impact is thunderous, and JB has no response as RDK pins with one hand to earn the 1-2-3 count.
Philip: Here is your winner………Macho Man RDK!
RDK’s music hits once more, and the fans chant his name as RDK stands up and raises his arms; JB starts to get up and he looks very angry, but he has more sense than to try and continue the fight on this occasion. JB slides out of the ring and stalks back to the locker rooms, follwed by and equally pissed off Krash; RDK accepts the cheers and applause from the fans for just a little longer before making his way backstage, most satisfied with his night’s work and pleased to have entertained his legions of fans once more.

Segment: Conflicting Loyalties
In the locker rooms, Bladeshadow is talking with V3 as he gets ready for his match.
Blade: So you think Venom will actually show up this time? No one’s seen the guy since SDS.
V3: Somehow I have a feeling that he will, which suits me fine. I have unfinished business with him.
Blade: Well be careful…….I know you can handle whatever he throws at you, buddy.
V3: No problem man. I thought you might take the night off, seeing as you don’t have a match……
Blade smiles.
Blade: I got a heads – up from Ginger that something of interest to me would take place…….and I’m going to enjoy every minute of watching Pdogg get thrashed in that tag match.
V3: You think he and Dream will lose? The last time he met Latino, Latino lost………<br> Blade: Yeah, but Latino had already been through one hell of a tag match before that fight……this time it’s P who’s had a previous match. And Latino is back with AK………(Blade looks a little sad)…..when you have someone you’re close to by your side, it makes a whole lot of difference.
V3: Stay tough Blade, I know it’s incredibly hard but you’ll get through this. I believe in you.
Blade: Thanks man, that means a lot to me.
V3 smiles and then exits the room to go to his match. Blade stands up from the bench and stretches, but as he does so Pdogg appears at the doorway, and Blade’s muscles tighten up.
Blade: Shouldn’t you be getting ready for your match, anus – features?
Pdogg: Your language hasn’t improved, I see. I am more than ready for my match, Blade………I’m going to enjoy hurting two of your closest allies in this fed. But that’s not why I’m here………..if you thought I’d forgotten about you, you’re very much mistaken. It so happens that I have a special task for my puppet tonight………..
Pdogg comes to Blade and whispers something in his ear. Blade listens, but as he does so he looks shocked, and then absolutely furious.
Blade: Forget it, P! There is no way, no way in hell, that I will do that.
Pdogg: Oh, that’s a terrible shame, Blade. Because you see I most certainly would do that………and I shall be doing it to your lovely fiancée just as soon as I get back after this show, if you don’t follow my instructions to the letter. Is that clear?
Blade goes pale, but his anger is still palpable in the room.
Pdogg: I said……….IS THAT CLEAR, puppet?
Blade doesn’t say a word, but he gives the tiniest of nods. PDogg smirks evilly and stalks out of the room, leaving Blade to contemplate the terrible choice that he now faces.
Fade Out.

Match 6: Venom vs V3
The approaching match is one which has the audience divided; many are sceptical as to whether Venom will actually show up for the first time since SDS, while others are more interested to find out exactly what his kidnappers have done to him since his abduction.
Philip: This match is scheduled for one fall………introducing first, from Las Vegas, he is the ACW International Champion………V3!
”Git Up” hits, and V3 comes out purposefully; the crowd is surprised to see the champion entering first, but the reason for this is soon revealed as V3 climbs into the ring and takes a mic from an assistant.
V3: Venom, I know you’re back there………I asked for this match because you and I have unfinished business. It was you, you slimeball, that attacked me before the main event at Seven Deadly Sins………now I don’t know exactly why you did it, or on who’s orders, and quite frankly I don’t care; you’re going to get your payback for that attack, right here, right now!
V3 throws down the mic and waits, along with everyone else in the arena. Nothing happens for a few seconds, and then……..
“Just Like Me” by 3 Days Grace starts to play, and a sinister black clad figure comes out slowly on to the entrance stage. he wears pure black wrestling tights, sliver gauntlets and a black tank top, but the most striking feature is the executioner’s mask that covers his face. He walks at a steady but unhurried pace to the ring, and the crowd is not sure how to react; he climbs up and walks around V3 before removing the mask.
Venom is still clearly recognisable, with his hair still a light blond; however his eyes have a crimson tinge to them, and his whole expression and posture suggest a mind focused on a single purpose. V3 looks at Venom closely, and he is uncomfortable with his new appearance; despite this however he is still determined to have his revenge for SDS, and the referee wastes no further time in getting the match started.
Bell Rings.
Venom advances on V3 without delay, and starts to hit him with a string of right and left handed blows; his movements are smooth and almost mechanical, and V3 is pushed back several feet before he gathers his wits and fights back. Venom takes several powerful shots, but he does not seem to be badly affected by them; instead he sticks out his arm and grasps V3 by the throat before hitting a huge chokeslam; such a move is usually only effective in the hands of the biggest wrestlers, but V3 delivers it with a force to rival anyone in ACW. V3’s head spins as it thuds against the mat and Venom pins; V3 pushes him away at 1.5 and gets back up quickly to whip Venom against the ropes. Venom ricochets back and goes for a Spear, but V3 counters with a high knee and Venom falls to the mat. V3 drops down to cover but Venom grabs him and rolls the pair over so that he is kneeling on V3’s chest; Venom jabs V3 in the windpipe and presses his shoulders down, but V3 breaks the count at 2 by rolling over again and he frees an arm to strike Venom before also holding his shoulders in place. Venom throws V3 off and the pair get back up, glaring at one another and the crowd shouts and yells at the intensity of the match. Venom is relentless and comes straight forward to attack again; they exchange blows before V3 tries to get a headlock on Venom, but his opponent counters before setting up and hitting a DDT of his own. Venom makes another pin and gets another 2 count; if he is becoming frustrated he shows no sign of it. V3 however is finding the going more difficult, and Venom’s apparent lack of concern just makes things harder for the champion.
V3 approaches Venom and they throw punches until Venom goes for a backdrop; V3 though is ready and counters with a bulldog. With Venom on the mat V3 moves to lock in his invertigo submission hold, and although he does this Venom seems able to bear the pain with surprising ease – it is not that Venom does not feel the effect of the move but rather he is so tightly focused on the match that the pain is an irrelevance. Venom draws together his strength and then bursts out of the hold; he rolls back to his feet and swings a leg so that the calf slams into the side of V3’s head as he tries to get back up himself. Venom picks up V3 and lands a powerbomb before covering; V3 kicks out just after 2 and gets up quickly, determined to turn the match around. With all his speed V3 whips Venom to the corner and follows him in to drive his shoulder against his foe; V3 continues to thrust his shoulder against Venom before dragging him up to the second rope for a big superplex. Both men travel some distance and V3 pins Venom for a count of 2.5; the fans are behind V3 and they start to call for his signature moves. Venom gets back to his feet only to receive a samurai shot (superkick). Venom reels and V3 hits his Kamikaze (inverted DVD) before pinning once more, and Venom only just manages to throw up an arm before the 3 count. V3 smiles as the pair rise once more, but he is a little concerned when he sees that Venom does not appear to be at all worried, and is still regarding him with an unsettling and purposeful stare.
The fans shout and cheer for V3, and the champion decides that it is time to put an end to Venom’s resistance. V3 attacks Venom, landing punches and kicks before hitting a back suplex to send Venom to the mat. Venom looks dazed and V3 climbs the post for the Ragin’ Azn, but just as he jumps off Venom leaps back to his feet, catches V3 and throws him down to the mat with incredible power. Venom stays in position to pin, and he grins viciously as V3 struggles to escape before the 3 count. Venom seems to be tapping a new source of energy, but V3 is not about to give up; he reverses an attempted whip by Venom and smashes him to the canvas with a direct blow to the face on his return. V3 picks Venom up and goes for the I-G-S, but Venom won’t play ball and V3 executes the move poorly so that Venom is able to break his cover at 2.5. V3 is now getting really frustrated, and he tries the move a second time, but this time Venom breaks away before he can nail the move and german suplexes V3 instead. Venom lifts up V3 for a military press and it connects, and V3 just barely beats the 3 count; V3 stands back up slowly and has to fight with all his strength to resist the blistering attack which Venom launches. Venom throws punch after punch, yet through it all his expression never wavers from one of cool resolve and absolute confidence; finally V3 takes one head shot too many, and Venom is able to hit another massive chokeslam. V3 is almost out of gas, and Venom calmly lets him pick himself up before he administers the Venomous Bite – a Styles Clash. V3 takes the full force, and he does not have enough strength to escape from Venom’s pin before the referee makes the 1-2-3 count and the bell rings.
Philip: Here is your winner……Venom!
Venom stands and smiles darkly as V3 pulls himself back up to one knee; he takes a mic from an assistant before grabbing V3 by the throat and pulling him right up to his face so that they are eye to eye.
Venom: You only need to understand one thing about me, V3; I have but one goal, and that is to take that international title from you. Nothing else matters to me, and I shall pursue it absolutely relentlessly, by any means necessary. Tonight was just a small demonstration of my power…..I shall eliminate anyone who stands between me and that belt, and when we meet again I shall have you begging for mercy before the end. You cannot resist me, V3……the poison is already in your system, and when the time is right you will succumb.
With that, Venom releases V3, turns and walks calmly away; the crowd boos him, but they are also shocked at his new ruthless style and a classic feud is starting to build. V3 has also been taken by surprise, but his resolve is as hard as diamonds and he has no intention of letting Venom intimidate him; the crowd cheers him as he leaves, and V3 knows that with their support he can stand up to this malevolent new threat.

Segment: Lost memories (Credit: Ridley)
Ridley isn't scheduled to be on the card for Meltdown tonight, so he naturally decides to do something Ridleyish.
Ridleyish, at least, by his new standards, which prove to be somewhat more tame than raking a cheese grater over somebody's eyes. He's in the back, twirling a glowstick in one hand while thoughtfully watching the show on a monitor.
Ridley (sighs): Bored...bored, bored, bored, bored...
The camera pans behind him to show Rose approaching Ridley, who has his back turned. She lays a hand on his shoulder and he turns, somewhat startled.
Ridley: Oh! Rose....look...about last week---
Rose cuts him off, looking more collected than she previously did, but still very concerned.
Rose: You don't remember anything, do you?
Ridley: Well...yeah, of course I remember things. Why?
Rose: But...but you don't remember about me? And Pain Inc? The Reign of Terror?
Ridley: Um, Rose, I really don't have a clue. Monday was the first time we've ever actually met in person, if I recall correctly.
Rose, obviously very frustrated and on the verge of tears again, slams both fists down on Ridley's chest. Unsure of why she's freaking out, he remains very still.
Rose (tearing up): NO, you don't recall correctly! How can you possibly have forgotten? The things you said to me...everything we've shared...the time we spent in the Demon Pit together....
Ridley: I....I really---
Rose (completely breaking down): I loved you! I would've done anything for you, Ridley! How can you do this to me now?!
She turns and starts storming away in tears, but Ridley grabs her by the shoulder, spins her around, and holds her in place.
Ridley: ...Wait.
Rose (annoyed): What is it?
Ridley: I....may not remember whatever it is, but it seems....very real to you.
Rose is silent as Ridley carefully thinks out his words.
Ridley: I'll....try. There's got to be some reason that we see things so differently, and I'll figure it out.
Rose steps back, still distressed, but less so. She nods before turning and walking away down the hall.
Rose: You had better.
Fade out.
