Segment: Locker Trouble with your favorite Macho Man (Credit: Angelo) Scene opens with RDK walking down the hall with his bags and the crowd going wild. Then RDK stops at a person
RDK: Hey Brudah, can ya help me out?
Crew Guy: Uhh, yeah
RDK: Can you tell me where my locker room is?
Crew Worker: Uhh, I think earlier I saw your name plate over that way. I'm not totally sure.
RDK: Okay thanks brudah. OoOoOoOh YEAH!
The crowd then gives an OoOoOoOh YEAH of their own as RDK starts down the hall and he passes many doors, not seeing his until he finally comes upon it and uses a free hand to open the door then a loud yell is heard almost around the whole arena.
RDK: WHAT ARE YOU KIDDING ME? WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?
RDK storms to the closest man he finds which happens to be Kevin Anderson
RDK: What is that? My locker room is like the janitors closet or something
Kevin: Hey, RDK dont call it a janitors closet. Its not that small we gave you a pretty big locker room.
RDK: I refuse to go in that room. I want a new room.
Kevin: Okay RDK, okay. I believe the wrestlers locker room is right there. Just make friends in there with I dont know, Predator, Gary, Wolf, Daredevil, or whoever else is in there. Good day
RDK gives a dirty look then goes back over to that room and picks up his stuff then goes to the wrestlers locker room, muttering things under his breath and camera fiunds Angelo Giovanni down the hall laughing at the way RDK blew up about it. He then shakes his head and walks to his locker room.

Segment: The Italian/Asian clash (Credit: Yoko) We see Yoko Satoshi sitting on the couch in her locker room. Mr. Floppy is sitting next to her, still admiring his shiny new coat of fur.
Mr. Floppy: You know, I think that Mercer Stanton likes us. You should really think of a way to repay him.
Yoko: I think it's a little odd, but you ARE right. We owe him a lot.
There's a knock on the door. Yoko sighs and gets up.
Yoko: I knew this was coming.
She opens the door and sees Charlotte King standing there with a cameraman.
Charlotte: Yoko, fans want to know, why-
Yoko: I know, I know. You want to know why I attacked Vinnie on Warfare.
Charlotte: Well, yes.
Yoko: I knew you or Kevin were going to ask me about it, and I just so happened to find a video to explain it. Recorded after the PPV.
Yoko sticks her head out of the doorway.
Yoko: GO AHEAD AND PLAY IT, SHE'S HERE.
They wait for a moment, and then a video begins to play on the Alpha Tron.
The scene on the 'Tron cuts back to last week. Vinnie Dulario is dressed in his wrestling attire, strutting down the halls with a newfound look of confidence on his face after Fallen Heroes. He shrugs his shoulders a bit as he walks, passer-bys quickly moving to the sides to get out his way. The crowd stops jeering as Vinnie suddenly stops, and looks to the side. The shot pans over to reveal Jade, with her small dog, Poochie.
Dulario: Well...if it isn't you...
Jade stops talking on her cell phone for a moment, and glances over at Vinnie. She gives his a disgusted look before turning away. A scowl slowly comes over Vinnie's face.
Dulario: Hey. I'm talking to you.
Jade continues to ignore him, petting her dog softly with one small hand. Vinnie stares at her for a moment before he roughly grabs her arm and spins her to face him. A small shriek escapes from her, then she narrows her eyes.
Jade: I don't associate with street trash like you! I kicked your ass once before!
Dulario: Street trash? Where I come from, that's a major form of disrespect. You'd be dead before you finished that sentence. But, I'm in a generous mood tonight. I trust you saw what I did to Donnie DeMarc on Sunday?
Jade dosn't answer. Vinnie tightens his grip a bit as he grins in her face.
Dulario: Rhetorical question. Poor DeMarc. He's never going to be the same when we're done with him. Now, if you don't want the same to happen to you, I suggest you show a little more respect in the future. I was just going to pass on a few friendly greetings...out of RESPECT...since you've beaten me in the ring. But now, I don't think I'm going to do that. From me to you, Jade...go fuck yourself...
Vinnie releases his grip. Poochie starts to yap frantically at him for roughing up his master. Vinnie suddenly reaches down, grabbing the dog by the scruff of the neck.
Dulario: You are one damned lucky mutt. You know that? Still, you show contempt...
Poochie snarls, gnashing his teeth at Vinnie as he holds him inches from his face.
Dulario: I should punt you down the hall, you little shit...
Vinnie glances at Jade, an evil grin on his face. She still is giving him the look of death, as only a woman knows how. Vinnie just slyly winks at her, and drops the dog back into her handbag, then walks away. The camera pans back to show Yoko Satoshi, who has witnessed the entire event.
The video ends and we go back to Yoko in her dressing room.
Charlotte: Um... I'm in here, I didn't see the video.
Yoko: Watch it later, then. The point is, Vinnie messed with Jade, and we all know by now that she is very dear to me. So he was messing with me as well. He may not have wanted a fight, but he has one now.
Charlotte: Right, I guess that makes sense. Thank you for answering, we'll be leaving now.
Charlotte and the cameraman leave the room.

Match 5: Daredevil vs. Cernunnos (Credit: Latino)
Phillip: Coming to the ring from Cardiff, Wales the ACW Lightweight Champion….Daredevil!
Daredevil receives a huge pop as he comes out to the ring. He slaps hands with many fans as he runs down the entrance way and slides inside the ring. He stands up and climbs the turnbuckles playing off to the fans who are standing on their feet going ecstatic. He jumps down back onto the mat as his opponent is announced.
Phillip: And his opponent from parts Unknown….Cerrunous!
Imperial March- John Williams starts playing as Cerrunous comes out. The fans are still on their feet but this time not to cheer. Some fans yell out while others throw random garbage in the ring. Cerrunous walks down to the ring not caring about the fans only his opponent for the night. He walks up the steps and enters the ring through the middle ropes.
* the Bell rings *
The match starts as Cerrunous runs to the opposite of the ring and clothesline Daredevil into the corner. He doesn't stop as he continues his attack as he keep clotheslining more and more. Daredevil grabs onto the ropes trying to pull himself up. Before he can do so Cerrunous knees Daredevil in the stomach cuasing him to fall on his knees. He grabs him by the hair and then lifts him up in a powerslam position. He holds him up displaying his strength and then throws Daredevil back in to the corner. Daredevil hangs up in a tre of woe position by one leg. Cerrunous takes a few steps as the fans are now booing him relentlessly. He runs towards the hanging devil and gives him a baseball slide to the face.
He rolls to the outside and grabs Daredevil by the face. He pulls back applying pressure to the lower neck and back. As the ref keeps counting Cerrunous stops and allows Daredevil to stop forcing him to fall down on the mat. Cerrunous rolls back inside the ring and stands up Daredevil. He Irish whips him into the ropes and on his return goes for a shoulder block but Daredevil dives to the side. Daredevil gets up quickly as the fans are cheering louder than ever. He jumps up and perfectly locks the hurricanrana sending his opponent across the ring. Cerrunous gets up on knee and immediately gets hit in the face by a dropkick. Now with Cerrunous on his back, Daredevil jumps on the top turnbuckle and dives back towards the ring with a corkscrew moonsault. He goes for the pin One…Two..Three!
Phillip: Here is your winner……Daredevil!
Just as the referee counts three Cerrunous kicks out. Daredevil rolls out of the ring and grabs a hold of his title. McCarthy comes down to the ring with Daredevil with a look of surprise. McCarthy enters the ring and Daredevil follows him not sure why he is here. Cerrunous comes from behind with a clothesline. McCarthy starts yelling at Daredevil as Cerrunous keeps attacking the champion. He picks him up and throws him back down headfirst on the mat. The officials and referees come out from the back pushing back McCarthy and Cerrunous. Cerrunous leaves the ring as the fans boo him louder and louder but he doesn't care as the smile on his face shows that he is more than pleased.

Segment: My Glorious Fate (Credit: Ridley) Having rather taken to the roof lately, and much more so than any locker room, Ridley can once again be found silhouetted against the full moon as he leans against the protective barriers at one side of the ACW arena's roof. Lightly stroking his goatee with one black-nailed hand, he leans back and, somewhat pointedly, throws out a quatrain.
Ridley: When I behold the majesty and pow'r / Bestowed on they who smite the infidel / And consecrate their ev'ry passing hour / To passing fancy of enthroned Hell.....
A pause. Ridley takes his hand from his chin, blows on the nails for a second, pops his knuckles. His claws leisurely slide down to his chest, where the fingers drum on his sternum...slowly, as the wind picks up and sweeps over the roof, he continues.
Ridley: Then do I yet renounce my accolades / And curse the glories that my sins acquire / To cast aside these earthly masquerades / And leave my titles to the purging fire...
Another pause. The wind continues its gentle breeze, and light drizzle starts, giving a certain aesthetic grit to the whole thing. He adds another quatrain.
Ridley: As in thine eyes, I see my glorious fate / To cast aside my machinations black / And in thine arms, proclaim my glorious state / Again possessed of all that I could lack...
One couplet remains as Ridley looks over the skyline, and his slow, deliberate speech reflects a certain intensity as he finishes...
Ridley: For I cannot compare thy love's excess...
A pause as he focuses, about to come up with a final line and complete it---
?: Uh, sir? Ridley?
The door to the stairs is open, and some office lackey's behind him. Ridley grits his teeth, frustrated, and turns.
Ridley: Your well-being hangs in the balance. Make it important.
The man cowers, sweating profusely, and manages to stammer out his message.
Office Lackey: Uh, s-s-s-sir, Mr. Stanton w-wants to see you n-now.
Ridley shoves him aside and storms down the stairway, in a far, far blacker mood than normal. While he has to go see Stanton, in the back of his mind still lurks his unfinished project.

Match 6: BK London vs. TNT (Credit: BK London)
With the recent actions before this match the people are wondering if the match between these two stars will take place. The crowd mumurs to themselves but cease as 'Never Enough' by Papa Roach hits and the crowd gives TNT as mixed reaction as he makes his way through the curtain.
Philip: This match is scheduled for one fall, coming to the ring weighing in at 230 pounds, from Chicago, Illinois, T-N-T !!!
TNT walks onto the stage and he does is normal cocky strut down the ramp wearing his hoodie as some fans jeer him and some begin to cheer him. TNT hops up on the apron and he steps into the ring as the camera flash around him. TNT climbs to the middle rope and takes off his hood before performing his signature Orton-esque taunt to the fans. The fans continue to give him a mixed reaction as he steps down from the middle rope and removes his hoodie and throws it to the outside. TNT is ready to go and just then Mercer appears on the stage.
Mercer: Earlier tonight, as you all witnessed, BK was knocked out cold by some mysterious attacker. Now due to this attack BK is not in any shape or form prepared to face TNT tonight....
The crowd begins to boo this statement made by Mercer...
Mercer: But don't fret fans of ACW, unlike Ginger, I have a back up plan.... You all are for a treat tonight as tonight will be the debut of one of the great lucha wrestlers from Mexico. Infact he has toured in the United States, Mexico, Japan, and the UK. Ladies please welcome.....El Luchador Calderon...
"King Yankee" by Daddy Yankee hits and the crowd and TNT are puzzled by the identity of the wrestler who will be facing TNT. A masked wrestler comes down to the ring, walking quickly and he enters the ring quickly also. He is anxious to fight wearing a full body suit. TNT questions the superstar and he believes it is BK, just then on the Alphatron BK is shown staggering down the hallway speaking..
BK: No....No...Mercer..I will fight tonight...I will compete against TN--....
At that point BK collapses in the hallway and the bystanders come to his aid, the cameras then cut back to the ring and the referee rings the bell for the match to begin.
El Lucha walks around the ring in a mysterious fashion which catches TNT off guard, TNT is perpelexed at Calderon's approach to the match and suddenly Calderon and TNT lock up in a collar-elbow-tie-up. TNT lock an arm wrench on Calerdon and Calderon rolls forward on the ground and kips up to his feet before taking TNT down with a Fireman's Carry. With TNT sitting down on the mat Calderon wraps his legs around the neck of TNT before he can rise to his feet, completing the Leg Scissors. TNT quickly rolls on his stomach and pushes his way out the leg scissors before floating over Calderon and locking on a Rear Chin Lock. TNT has the lock on perfectly but Calderon counters that move into a Hammerlock and then he applies more pressure on the arm of TNT by carrying it over into a bridge. TNT wails in pain due to his arm being in Excrutiating Pain and he uses his educated legs to reach the nearest bottom rope. Calderon release the hold and rises up to his feet and so does TNT while holding his arm. TNT is frustrated at this superstar getting the best of him. Calderon begins walking around the ring clapping to get the crowd's support and the crowd claps in unsion with Calderon which gets on the nerves of TNT. TNT and Calderon lock up again in the center of the ring and TNT knees Calderon in the abdomen getting the unfair upperhand. TNT whips Calderon into the ropes and goes for a Kitchen Sink but Calderon grabs the inside of the leg and carries it over into a School Boy but TNT kicks out at two. The two immediately reach to their feet and Calderon drops TNT with a Standing Dropkick, as TNT is getting up again Calderon bounces off the ropes and goes for a Body Scissors to Bulldog but TNT counters the Body Scissors into a Snap German Suplex sending Calderon upperback first into the turnbuckle. Calderon holds his back as he groggily walks out the corner and TNT hits him with a Double Arm Backbreaker.
Calderon holds his back in pain and TNT aggresively covers Calderon but Calderon kicks out. TNT picks up the Mexican superstar and hits him with a Vertical Suplex, Calderon holds his back in a lot of pain and TNT does his cocky taunt getting a little pop from the crowd. TNT then picks up Calderon and European Uppercut's him sending him into the corner. TNT walks over to Calderon and whips him into the opposite corner, then TNT goes for a clothesline on him but Calderon moves up to the second rope and sends TNT into the corner with a Mushroom Stomp. Calderon lands on his feet and turns around, TNT runs toward him and Calderon takes him down with a deep armdrag. TNT gets up again and Calderon takes him down with another, TNT gets up and Calderon whips him into the ropes but TNT holds onto the rope and slides under the bottom rope to the outside. TNT tries to recover from the great amount of offense from Calderon, just then Calderon goes by the ropes and he attempts a Vaulting Body Press but TNT catches him in mid-air. TNT then manuevers Calderon on his shoulder and attempts to drive him into the ring post but Calderon counters it into a Swinging DDT onto the mat outside. Calderon rolls back into the ring and the referee begins to count TNT out. TNT begins to stagger to his feet at the count of 4 and he reaches into the ring at the count of 7. TNT attempts to swing at Calderon but Calderon grabs the arm of TNT and hits him with a Half-Cross Over Cutter (Regal Cutter). Calderon covers TNT as soon as he hits the ground but TNT kicks out again.

Calderon positions his mask tight on his head before heading back into battle, he picks up TNT and TNT catches Calderon with an Elevated Complete Shot out of nowhere. TNT then attempts to follow up into a Koji Clutch but Calderon quickly makes his way to the ropes before he can lock on the move perfectly. TNT releases the hold and he gets up beginning to stomp at Calderon, Calderon begins to get up and TNT whips him into the ropes. Calderon comes off the ropes and hops on TNT's shoudlers for a Hurrancarana but TNT throws him off backwards and Calderon lands on his feet. TNT then runs toward Calderon and Calderon pops out of nowhere with a Rockbottom. The crowd pops for Calderon as he hits one of RDK's signature moves and then Calderon climbs to the top rope, he taunts the crowd before attempting a Forward Flip into an Elbow Drop but TNT moves out the way. The crowd's reaction suddenly begins to change as they realize that is Hunter's Equinox and the suspicion that the superstar behind the mask is Hunter grows. Calderon staggers to his feet and TNT begins to stalk him from behind, and the crowd begins to cheer as they know the RKO is coming. Calderon begins to walk to the center of the ring and TNT comes from the side and goes for an RKO but Calderon pushes TNT into the ref, knocking the ref out. TNT turns around and Calderon goes for an RKO himself but TNT lifts him and throws him groin first into the second turnbuckle. The crowd goes nuts for TNT as he goes onto the apron, TNT does his cocky taunt before hitting Calderon with his Outside to Inside Split Legged Moonsault.
TNT hooks the leg of Calderon and the crowd counts one, two, three but their is no referee to respond to the count. TNT goes by the referee and tries to revive him for the count but their is no use, TNT goes back over to Calderon and begins picking him up but Calderon hits TNT with a low blow which gets him a lot of heat from the crowd. TNT holds his groin and drops to the ground, Calderon rolls to the center of the ring and begins to pulls something out from his tights. It is revealed to be some brass knucks. Calderon staggers to his feet and he begins to wait for TNT to get to his feet, TNT begins to stagger to his feet slowly and just then Latino walks down to the ring and the crowd is puzzled at his appearance. Calderon attempts to knock out TNT with brass knucks but TNT ducks and pushes Calderon into the ropes. Latino hops up on the apron and as Calderon hits the ropes Latino pulls off his mask and the face of the lucha is revealed. Calderon attempts to conceal his face as only few can see his face and just then TNT hits the RKO out of nowhere. "Calderon" lands on the mat and TNT covers him as the referee slowly crawls over and counts one, two, three...The bell rings and the arena goes nuts.
Philip: And the winner of this match is, T-N-T !!!
"Never Enough" hits again and the crowd cheers for TNT as he rolls out the ring to the back celebrating his win, back in the ring "Calderon" begins to recover and the crowd sees that it is none other than BK London. BK London doesn't look to happy as Latino walks up the ramp backwards holding his mask in the air. The crowd is confused by the actions of London and BK lets out a huge scream towards Latino as Latino celebrates as the music changes to "Low Rider" by War.

Segment: ‘Heavenly’ Forces (Credit: Yoko) The scene fades in on Mercer Stanton in his office, on the phone.
Mercer: So, you're sure? (Pause). Absolutely? (Pause). Of course I trust your ability, you're the best at what you do. If you say that's how he works and that's going to happen, then I believe you. I just wanted to be sure before going through with it. (Pause). Right, I know. Thanks again for the information, Andrew.
He hangs up the phone. Elias looks at him.
Elias: Well?
Mercer: Andrew said he's definitely unstoppable from outside forces. So called "Heavenly" forces will hurt him, but not destroy him. Quite the opposite, actually.
Elias: The opposite?
Mercer: You'll see soon.
Elias: And you trust this Andrew?
Mercer: Of course I don't trust him, but I do trust what he can do. He wouldn't lie to me about that, not after the payment. Something big's about to happen if he's right, and he is, so wait and see.
Elias nods his head at him.

Philip: The following match is a tag team match, scheduled for one fall. Firstly, Alicia Kitsune and Macho Man RDK!

The Way I am hits, and Angelo and Julien come out, accompanied by Valmont, who stays out the ring as Angelo and Julien enter. Philip exits the ring, and the match gets ready to start
Bell Rings

RDK goes down, but quickly jumps back to his feet. They lock into another headlock, and this time RDK wins, to the small delight of the fans. He hits a Snap Suplex, and jumps to his feet. RDK then starts stomping into Angelo, getting the crowd all pumped up. He then stops, and lets Angelo up. RDK then gives him and Irish Whip, but Angelo reverses it and hits a Sidewalk Slam as a result. Angelo smirks at RDK, and drops an elbow on him, before going over and tagging in Julien. Julien gets in and locks RDK in a sleeper hold, but RDK’s experience allows him to quickly force Julien off him. Julien gets up, and runs at RDK, but RDK hits him with a ¾ Neckbreaker, before tagging AK in. AK gets into the ring, and locks up with Julien. Julien tries an Irish Whip, but AK rests at the ropes, and though Julien charges at AK, she manages to jump up and clobber him with a scissors kick. She smiles at Angelo in the corner, and lifts Julien up, and hits an Irish Whip. Julien however reverses it and hits an impressive dropkick, before locking in an Armbar. He keeps it in the hold for a while, before AK manages to roll him up into a pin: 1…2…kickout by Julien.
They break up, and Julien tags Angelo in. He runs at AK, and hits a quite impressive Hammerlock Bridge Suplex. He rolls up, and tries a pin, but AK rolls away before he can start it, and they get into a headlock. Angelo wins it, and tries a Powerbomb, but AK manages to roll him up into a Hurricarana! They both roll up, with Angelo looking quite confused. AK smiles and tags RDK in, and the crowd hype up a little more. RDK lifts Angelo up, and throws him at the ropes. Angelo reverses it, but ends up as the result of a Lou Thesz Press and Knuckle! The crowd get extremely hyped up, and RDK smiles with joy. He lifts Angelo up, and then up to the top turnbuckle. He shoves Angelo off, and goes for the Moonsault, but Julien enters the ring, distracting the referee. This allows Valmont to sneak over and he shoves RDK off the ropes! Julien then obediently goes back to his corner like nothing happened, and Angelo makes the pin: 1…2…thr-kickout by RDK! Valmont looks very annoyed at this, but AK turns around and smiles at him, and he oddly smiles back. Meanwhile, Angelo gets up slowly, and tags Julien in. RDK tries to reach AK but fails, and is immediately on the backing end of an elbow to the back of the head. Julien picks him up and throws him into the turnbuckle, making a tag with Angelo. They both hit a double suplex, and Angelo makes a pin, but AK comes out and stops it. She goes back to her corner, and Angelo looks a little annoyed at not making the three-count. Nonetheless, he lifts RDK up and tries to go for the Italian Decimator. Before he can hit it though, RDK hits a DDT, and both wrestlers are down, with AK and Julien frantically waiting for the tag

RDK and Angelo slowly crawl to their corners, and both make the tag at the same time. AK runs at Julien, hitting an impressive Enziguri on Julien, followed by a clothesline on Angelo. RDK then manages to take Angelo to the outside of the ring, where they start scrapping. Meanwhile, AK looks at Julien, and smiles, before picking him up. She tires an Irish Whip which is successful, and receives a clothesline for her troubles. Julien smirks, and lifts her up. They lock into another headlock, and Julien wins again, hitting a Bodyslam in the center of the ring. He makes the cover, but RDK manages to jump in at the nick of time and stop it. Angelo and RDK go back to their corners, and AK tags RDK in. Julien runs to his corner and tags Angelo in, and they engage in another headlock. Angelo runs back and tries a headlock, but misses. Instead, RDK turns him around and hits a Jabroni Buster! He goes for the pin, but Valmont pulls the referee out! RDK looks around, and sees Valmont. AK runs after him, who leads her backstage. RDK smiles at AK, but doesn’t notice an unseen low-blow by Angelo! Angelo rolls him up 1…2…3!
Philip: Here is your winners…Julien and Angelo Giovanni!
The two celebrate in the ring, but not for long, as AK runs back to the ring. Soon, a mass brawl hits out, and soon the ring is flooded by referees and security guards, who are forced to stop the brawl, as we cut to commercials

Segment: Surprise Appearence (Credit: Kiji) Thud.
Kiji slams the door of the silver Mercedes and steps out lightly, adjusting a large canvas backpack hanging over his shoulder; he starts up the silent pathway in front of the Stanton manor. He ascends the marble steps to the gargantuan oak front doors and enters the lavish entrance hall. Two red-carpeted staircases loom on either side of a door leading to the lounge, and there are hallways leading to the left and right of as well. Kiji takes the left staircase and makes his way to Stanton's office, and from there to his personal quarters, becoming aware of a faint sound of running water in the distance as he approaches his door.
Entering his room silently, he eases the backpack down onto his bed and looks towards the bathroom door, the source of the sound. This, too, he opens silently, and slips inside. A vague shape can be seen moving behind the fogged glass of the shower stall.
"You must be Vanessa."
The figure in the shower goes about its business casually, seeming not to have heard. Kiji crosses his arms impatiently.
"Did you hear me?"
[i[A minute or two later, the water shuts off, and a dripping arm extends to pull a towel from a rack on the wall. The shower door opens, releasing a cloud of steam, in the middle of which stands a woman, wrapped in the towel. The two look at each other, and the woman quirks her lips in an odd smile. "It's not nice to rush a lady when she's in the bathroom."
She stands an inch or two taller than Kiji, and the parts of her body he can see are toned and muscled--but not obscenely so. He looks her over, dispassionately, as one might look at a side of beef, from her long, taut legs, to her well-toned arms, crossed beneath her breasts, to her face with its smiling pink lips and small nose. And her eyes--
From her figure, he estimates her at around 25, but the eyes confuse him. They are green, flecked with gold, and otherwise normal except for the slightly unsettling feeling of time they transmit to him. These are eyes that have seen much, he thinks. War? Heartache? Life—[/i]
He looks away uncomfortably. "You can sleep on the sofa," he says at last.
"How chivalrous of you."
Vanessa Craven walks to the other side of the room, leaving wet footprints on the carpet, and moves behind a wardrobe screen. The towel falls, and she re-emerges moments later, dressed in a black tank-top and denim shorts, pulling her hair into a ponytail and securing it with some odd bit of feminine frippery.
"Ready to go?"
Kiji nods, and follows her out of the room.
A light breeze stirs the oak leaves above their heads as they stroll into a shaded garden near the back of the manor, Vanessa leading the way.
"What's this?" Kiji demands. "You're supposed to teach me how to wrestle, not take me hiking."
She walks into the center of a sunlit plaza flanked by benches, her bare feet tapping softly against the cobblestones. "A little recreation, first, I think. Mr. Stanton speaks highly of your ability. Show me what you can do." She turns and drops abruptly into a fighting stance. Kiji shrugs and takes a position about three yards away from her. "Are you ready?"
He kicks high over his head in an almost superhuman display of flexibility, then assumes his own fighting pose.
"Yes."
End.

Segment: Needing a Challenge (Credit: Rildey) The scene opens in Mercer Stanton's office, formerly the Demon's Pit, with the co-owner of ACW sitting at his desk going over paperwork. He looks up as the door opens, and discovers that the office lackey he sent has apparently come back intact...and with Ridley, no less.
Stanton: Ah, Ridley. Good to see you, come on in.
Taking a brief glimpse at the revamped room, Ridley simply chuckles, his expression unreadable as always. He complies with Stanton's request, moving up close. Very close. So close, in fact, that the only thing separating the boss from 225 pounds of seething devastation is an ample mahogany desk. Ridley takes a breath, and puts as much venom as humanly possible into his greeting.
Ridley: .....yeeeees?
Stanton's got incredibly good control; he doesn't even flinch (at least, not outwardly) at Ridley's single word. Rather, he actually leans forward to begin the conversation, substantially impressing the One Man Holocaust, who relaxes on the proverbial throttle a bit.
Stanton: I was calling you in...to see what your condition is. You know, the injury and all.
Ridley flexes both shoulders, rolling his arms around on them.
Ridley: 100%. Easily.
Stanton: So you're ready to make an in-ring return?
Ridley: If you can find a victim. The entire roster's scared of me; I doubt any of them would have any desire to skip on in and fight me.
Nodding his agreement, Stanton puts both elbows on the desk and rests his chin in both hands, inadvertantly drawing Ridley's attention to one finger...
Stanton: Yes...well, come a week from today's show, I'll see what I can do---
Ridley isn't listening anymore. He's staring at the ring on his boss's finger, a black-gemmed ring with a silver band. The jewel seems almost to have a life of its own, refracting the light around it into all sorts of shades.
He's found what he was looking for. He knows he has...and suddenly, his last line occurs to him.
Ridley: *under his breath* ...with all the treasures mankind may possess.
Three quatrains and a couplet. Fourteen lines.
Stanton: Eh? What was that?
Snapping back to reality, Ridley steps back from the desk and prepares to leave.
Ridley: I said I'll be waiting for whomever I'm assigned.
He turns, leaving the "tyrant who shall bring the way" to his paperwork, and closes the door behind him, muttering one last thing to himself as he strides back down the hall.
Ridley: Although before then...I believe you'll be getting a visit, Mr. Stanton.
End segment.

The final match of the evening is a rematch between competitors with much previous history between them; who will emerge victorious from this latest round of battle?
Philip: Ladies and Gentlemen, Tonight�s main event is an intergender match, set for one fall, and it is for the ACW World Championship! Introducing first, the challenger��from the Vatican City, Michael Kross!
�Vater Unser� hits, and the fans cheer for Kross as the know and love him. Kross walks to the ring, bestowing blessings upon the faithful, and looks calm and collected as he removes his cloak and enters the ring. A few bruises, however, bear witness to the beating he suffered on Warfare, and the fans wonder if he is 100% tonight.
Then �Flower of Carnage� hits, and there�s more cheering as Yoko emerges, belt and bunny in hand.
Philip: And his opponent, she is the reigning ACW World Champion��from Okinawa, Japan, Yoko Satoshi!
Yoko walks to the ring looking ready for the match, if perhaps the tiniest bit anxious to put on a good convincing show tonight. She leaves Mr. Floppy at ringside, and hand the belt to the referee as is customary. The ref holds up the belt, and with the formalities completed, the match can begin.
Bell Rings.
Kross still looks a little sore after his match on Warfare, but he�s certainly not about to let that get the better of him in this important match. With both competitors firmly in the lightweight band, things quickly shift from a few exchanged punches and kicks into a much more dynamic style, as Kross moves to whip Yoko to the ropes. It�s reversed, but Kross doesn�t panic; he guesses that Yoko will try to catch him out and so takes a gamble, leaping up to the second rope and backflipping off of it instead of rebounding in the normal manner. It pays off, as Yoko has advanced toward the ropes and does not have enough time to get clear again before Kross lands on top of her. The first pin of the match is therefore made in this inadvertent manner, though Yoko�s free well before the 2 count. Both are back on their feet rapidly; they swap a kick or two and then lock together � Kross tries for a DDT, but Yoko resists and promptly introduces Kross� face to her knee, making Kross stagger backward holding his nose. Yoko dashes forward to take him down with a clothesline; Kross counters into a swift backbody drop only for Yoko to land cat � like on her feet and hit Kross with a dropkick into the small of the back. Kross ends up on the mat, and Yoko tries to get him into the Ol� ball and chain, but Kross knows this move very well indeed and makes sure that he gets clear, rolling out of the ring to do so. Yoko seems to hesitate over whether to follow Kross or not, but as she sees that Kross is recovering with impressive speed her mind is made up, and she slides to the outside. Kross is prepared for her arrival, and both take up defensive stances as they get closer, watched by a fascinated audience.
Yoko isn�t content to play things in this manner for long; she is keen to thoroughly stamp her authority on the World Title in this defence, and so she moves in decisively on Kross, forcing him to retreat backwards around the ring to avoid the worst of her aggression. As they reach the side of the ring with the announce tables, Yoko succeeds in getting close enough to her opponent to land a couple of telling blows; Kross is pressed against one of the table as Yoko works him over, focusing on his abdomen and perhaps looking for an opportunity to strike with the Flying Guillotine. The fans, however, are broadly behind Kross as a result of his courageous stand against the increasingly unpopular Stanton, and they cheer him, urging him to fight back. Kross seems lifted by their support and mounts a comeback, pushing Yoko back to allow himself some room to move; the referee’s count is now at 8, and the pair seem to naturally migrate back into the ring, there being some unspoken understanding that both desire a fair and proper result here. Kross keeps the match rolling along at a good speed with another whip to the ropes; Yoko hits them and returns, and the pair clash, each trying to knock the other down, and both succeeding (although at some cost to themselves). Kross is the first up, and he executes a neat suplex on Yoko, rises, and then repeats the move a second time before pinning; he gets just past the 2 count, and as Yoko starts to rise Kross decides to roll the dice once more. He hurries to the corner and gains elevation in order to go for his trademark Dragonrana, and though his technique is perfect Yoko ducks and rolls in the nick of time so that Kross misses and lands hard. Yoko moves in and locks in a sleeperhold, and now Kross has a different sort of fight on his hands�..

Yoko clearly wants to sap Kross' strength so that he is hampered in using his most powerful moves, but Kross is equally aware of her intentions, and he retaliates with a most un priestlike series of elbows until Yoko isn't able to maintain the necessary pressure. Bursting out, Kross stays close and starts to lay down chops to Yoko's chest and neck; it’s a slight deviation from his normal style, but it appears to be quite effective, and Kross is able to grab on to Yoko by her hair and deliver a nasty looking bulldog. This has the effect of making Yoko a bit dizzy, and Kross pulls out all the stops, putting Yoko into the Majistral cradle as quickly as he can. The ref slides in, and the audience leaps to their feet, 1,2,th, Yoko explodes out of the cradle with less than a second to spare, and evidently at the cost of quite a lot of energy. The crowd is getting incredibly loud, and Kross isn’t about to wave the while flag; as Yoko staggers up he runs to the ropes, builds speed and rockets into a variation of the Reedemer but Yoko somehow musters the strength to fight back and dropkicks the hurtling Kross, making the crowd roar with surprise. Both are down and Yoko crawls into a cover, 1,2, - Kross kicks, and now both participants are looking weary. Despite Yoko's previous counter Kross is focused on delivering a big finish, and he heads to the nearest corner, the crowd's sound ascending as he does. With Yoko only just getting to her knees, Kross lines her up and goes for his missile dropkick...but Yoko is up just in time, and she braces as she side steps so that she catches Kross on the way down and then throws him backward as she herself falls. The ring shudders, the crowd yells, and Yoko pulls herself up to the ropes next to her. As Kross gets to one knee, Yoko uses the ropes to add a touch of extra force to the Flying Guillotine, and Kross takes the hit at 100% power. Yoko rolls him into a pin, and this final strike keep Kross' shoulders to the mat for the 1,2,3.
Philip: Here is your winner, and still ACW World Champion...Yoko Satoshi!
The fans cheer an excellent match; though the result was as they had expected, they make appreciative noises for both challenger and champion. Kross seems happy to have proved he can still compete at the top levels, and Yoko adds another name to her extensive list of defenses, as she takes her belt and Mr. Floppy to head to the back, as the show ends. But it leaves us with a few questions:
What will happen between RDK and Angelo, and the relationship with his dad?
Will Ridley find an opponent wanting to fight him?
Why was DD so late at writing up this show?
Many questions will be answered shortly, but for now, we must wait
Fade to Black.
End of Show
