Opening Segment: The Newest Stable Member
As the show opens, it is clear that the crowd is stoked for some ACW action! Some fans are holding up signs for the upcoming mega event/game ACW Omega Effect, while others are seen wearing the new ACW merchandise, including the already outdated Predator and Wolf shirts, inflatable Thor hammers, replica titles(for some strange reason, a disproportionate number of the titles are the Diva belt), and the new “Fallout Revolution: Join the Uprising!” shirt. Suddenly, "Hail to the Chief" plays, with the Senator walking out to the ring by himself, wearing a suit. The crowd gives a very mixed reaction, for there is no middle ground when it comes to the Senator right now. The Senator motions to Phillip to give him the mic, and the fans await one of his trademark rants.
The Senator: Well, I must say…the state of the company here is looking more and more interesting…oh, yes it is. We have a veritable power struggle going on in the back. We have new, ahem, superstars appearing almost every show now. We have a World champion who cares more about carrying on with personal interests than she cares for defending her title! Oh yes, things are looking up around here! We have a federation that is growing exponentially, with a over booked super-event coming up this month, the upcoming release of our own video game, a financed tour going through the U.S…but can we handle this growth?
The Senator pauses for dramatic effect, and his harsh tone drops as he speaks again.
Senator: I say, contrary to the odds, yes! Even if our leadership is divided, it still appears to get the job done, most of the time. While I do not stick around with most of the locker room in the back, we have a common tie that unites us, and most of us know better than to hurt the company as a whole, even as we attempt to murder our fellow competitors in the ring. Our champ might not be focusing on her belt too much, yet it appears that even then, few can match Miss Satoshi’s in ring ability. I know that I would take a great deal to prepare for a match with her, make no mistake about her age or mindset, she is indeed, the real deal. Finally, can we handle the burden of growth? You bet we can! Place your bottom dollar on it, if anyone can pull it off, ACW can!
The Senator adjusts his suit, and takes a breath before continuing. The audience is shouting a hearty A-C-DUB chant off as the Senator raises his microphone once again.
Senator: Whew! It sure was good to get that off my chest, it really was. Enough, though about the state of ACW, how’s about we ourselves have a little chat about the Senatorial Stable? Well, to tell you the honest truth, the state of the Stable has been better. We once had multiple champions in the Stable, Hunter got the Lightweight title, Fallen Souls had the International, and Anthony Kalb was YOUR Junior champion! We were a force to be reckoned with here in ACW…and then it just seemed to fall apart. Hunter and FSX lost their belts under rather dubious circumstances, Mr. Kalb was taken out by that barbaric monster, Cernunnos, I got eliminated at the Fallen Heroes battle royal, Will Anger dropped off the face of the earth, Fallen decided to take a trip back home, Kevin Fitsharris is busy leading some sort of revolution on Fallout…and that leads us to today. Miss Rena Matheson came into the Stable, taking care of my personal business, and at the same time, winning the Diva title, but that was only the first step. I realized that if the Stable is going to return to full strength, more needs to be done. One thing I never neglect to do is to remember the past, even as I look on to blazing a trail into the future. My recent stint as a referee has reminded me of those golden days of the past, and several key individuals helped make the Senatorial Stable the recognized force that it is today. One of those individuals is about to once again be a feared member of the Stable. This person has taken the Stable’s policy of self improvement to heart over the last few months, and should continue it here…for he is none other than Angelo Giovanni!
"The Way I Am" plays, as Angelo walks to the ring wearing a nicely tailored suit. The audience seems mostly shocked, with a few of the smarter fans making some connections and seeing that it makes perfect sense. Angelo enters the ring, shaking hands with the Senator and both men grin widely.
Senator: Mr. Giovanni, I must say that I have waited for this moment since the moment I stepped into the ACW Arena for the first time! I have watched your matches over the last two months or so, I have been in the ring with you twice over the last few weeks as a referee, and I must say now that you have improved beyond a shadow of a doubt. Angelo, you are ready for the big time now, and that, my friend, is nothing…but the truth!
The Senator hands Angelo the mike, and every person in the arena listens in to hear what the newest member of the Stable has to say.
Angelo: Senator, it’s great to finally get back together with the Senatorial Stable…..
There are some mixed reactions from the crowd.
Angelo: I've been watching you ever since you came to ACW. Watching your stable, and realized there’s one thing missing. An Italian superstar. I've wanted to be apart of it, you out of them all impressed me. You've changed so much since that shit fest GfWWE. So you people in the crowd, may be thinking "wait all this stuff with Angelo and Alicia with Senator being referee and then with Latino being referee. Also Senator verbally attacking Alicia when she was down, it’s all coming together." Well, good for you, shows a little intelligence in you all. Hence the word little.
Boos fill the arena and an “Angelo sucks” chant starts.
Angelo: I've been waiting..........waiting for the opportunity, to join back up with the Senatorial Stable. Now, here is my chance and god dammit, I'M TAKING IT! I'M GOING TO SHOW THIS COMPANY WHAT THE SENATORIAL STABLE HAS IN STORE FOR THEM. WE WILL BE THE DOMINANT GROUP IN ACW, AND ANYBODY STANDING IN OUR WAY WILL BE DEMOLISHED DAMMIT. I'M HERE FOR ONE PURPOSE, TO PROVE MYSELF. AND FOR MY NEW GOURP, I will prove myself to them. When I bring the International Championship, home to the.........
Angelo brings the mic away from his face and looks all around.
Angelo: Senatorial Stable.
Angelo gets a big grin on his face and looks at Senator who is now smiling too, not aware that Angelo has a title shot.
Angelo: Wyvern, I'll deal with you later tonight. As for me and the rest of the stable, we're gonna party!
Angelo drops the mic and shakes Senators hand then they both make their way out of the ring and backstage as "Hail to the Chief" hits and Angelo stops at the top of the stage with Senator. They both turn around and look into the crowd, then Angelo just gives only, simple chin flick as from the Titantron, an American and Italian Flag drops down, filling the background behind The Senator and Angelo.
The scene fades with the two flags hanging, with Angelo and Senator smiling and taunting the crowd.
OOC Note: Credit for this segment goes to Angelo and Senator.

Segment: An earlier than expected start (Credit: Rose)
It is an unusually cool night for this time of year. The sun set behind Cloaker’s Woods about an hour or so ago and the stars quickly took its place. Our scene starts with an overhead shot of the ACW that can attest to this description and then the scene immediately switches to a backstage locker room. It is a room that is currently sparsely decorated, but it does look suitably comfortable. The two people who inhabit this room are Shawn Kiev and Sakina Khalida. They moved in a few bits of furniture earlier in the evening and have decided to rest the night and just watch the show as if they were normal fans Sakina is not wearing her hajib as she normally has when we have seen her and for the first time we see her shoulder length black hair. Sakina is generally a modest woman and holds fast to her traditions, but Kiev is slowly using his charm to slightly etch away at her beliefs. He sometimes jokes that she should not hold on to foolish barbarism, but she is quick to counter that modesty is not barbaric. All in all, Kiev is respectful of her beliefs, but would like to see them change in time and is quick to note that she cannot wear it during wrestling matches anyway. Kiev is dressed casually for the first time since the ACW fans have been acquainted with him and he looks like he is very tired. They are both enjoying the show, but that abruptly shatters when they hear a knocking at their door.
Kiev: One second.
Kiev waits as Sakina puts on her hijab and then she walks up next to him. He whispers something to her and she then playfully hits him in the back of the head. Kiev waits a few second then opens the door. Sakina’s eyes widen at who she sees, but they don’t match Kiev who begins to sweat out of nervousness. Mercer Stanton stands at the door, waiting to be invited in.
Kiev: Uh….Won’t you come in Mr. Stanton?
Stanton smiles a bit and accepts the offer. He walks in and has a seat and Kiev becomes very nervous.
Kiev: So….Mr. Stanton….sir, what brings you to our locker room?
Stanton looks over at Kiev and responds in a serious tone.
Stanton: Why, I came to see ACW’s two newest members and to see how you are getting situated.
Kiev: Well, we just moved stuff in for our locker room today and we are getting prepared for Sakina’s first match on Fallout. I think she has a decent chance to make an impact and we are both confident with her chances. We think she brings a lot to the table.
Stanton: Oh? Give me examples?
Kiev: She is a gifted technical wrestler in the ring and her high flying moves are amazing.
Stanton: Yes, but can she sell merchandise?
Kiev: Well, we don’t think that is currently an option
Stanton: Not currently an option? Well, can she work the mic at all yet? Wrestling fans do love catch phrases and all sort of buzzwords.
Kiev: Well sir, I do the mic work since her English is not very well.
Stanton: Yes, I do remember that now. Well, I have work to do, so I must leave you now, good luck to both of you in your match later tonight?
Kiev: Thank you, sir…………..Match?
Stanton: Miss Khalida is in a 2 out of 3 falls match with Predator later in the night. You do remember don’t you?
Kiev’s eyes widen and he smiles.
Kiev: Of course sir, I am sure you will be entertained by the match. Visit us anytime you like.
With that Stanton exits the room and closes the door behind him. Kiev gets pale and looks like he is about to pass out. Sakina looks nearly as shocked and immediately starts to get ready for the match.
Kiev: How could I have forgotten about that match……….
Fade to Black.

Segment: The lone Predator (Credit: Predator)
Once we are back, Predator is shown in the ring with a mic in hand, he is wearing spiffy new sunglasses and a tight black t-shirt, not to mention some green dresspants and a silver watch. He begins to speak as he struts around the ring.
Predator: Pred-Heads of the ACW, tonight is the primary step in my career where I will begin my winning streak! Yeah baby! Tonight, Sakina falls victim to The Predator!
The crowd boo Predator for his cockiness and throw trash at him, Predator dodges the trash while continuing to speak
Predator: Hey, lay off guys, just cause your not part of the Pred-Heads club, doesn't mean you have to have a tantrum!
The crowd responds in an annoyed chant of "Wolf Wolf Wolf Wolf!"
Predator: ...Oh please, Wolf? I mean for the love of my mother's peanut butter cookies, this man was holding me back! He was the pepper on the French fries, not needed. I however, am the salt baby! Guess who’s the French fry? Huh? Guess? Give up? The answer is simple, it’s anyone who gets owned by The Predator!
A man shouts out "Which means nobody at all!"
The crowd immediately shouts in unison:
OOOOOH BURN!!!!!!!!!!
Predator: NO NO NO! Fuck you, FUCK-A-YOU, and fuck you!
Predator points to a fat man eating a hot dog, the man continues to eat his hot dog in embarrassment
Predator: I will show you all why I am worth of being the protege of BK London! I mean look at my competition tonight! She should be in the kitchen making me a sandwich! That’s right! A sandwich! I have fought women in the ring before, Sakina. Don't make me crush you like I have others! Forfeit this match tonight, and maybe, JUST MAYBE, The Predator, the slick performance machine, will spare you a beating!
Predator drops the mic and then rolls out, strutting up the ramp as the crowd boos loudly and he just ignores them, going through the curtains and looking for BK London...

Match 1: Beach Bash Rumble Kiley vs. Rei vs. Koda vs. Jessie vs. Carma vs. Rena
It’s time for the night’s action to get underway, and as the shot opens on the arena once more Philip is in the centre of the ring, with Carma, Jessie and Koda already having arrived there. Philip continues with his introductions.
Philip: And introducing next, from Okinawa Japan…….Rei Peacecraft!
There’s a strong response from the crowd as “Rawkfist” plays, and Rei waves to the cheering fans as she walks to the ring. Always a striking figure, she smiles at Philip as he holds the ropes for her, and then takes up a space to his left.
Philip: From Brooklyn New York…….Kiley Johnson!
”One Thing” plays, and Kiley struts out, not at all distracted by the boos and jeers of the crowd. She enters the ring and gives all the other women a pointed glance as she does a little last minute warm up.
Then, “Work It” signals the arrival of the last competitor, and the boos simply become even stronger.
Philip: And finally, from New York, she is the ACW Diva Champion……Rena Matheson!
Rena walks to the ring, a picture of beauty, and strides all around it looking at the various beach – themed items that have been left around for the Divas to make use of as they please. All the women look gorgeous in their beachwear, but the wise fans aren’t fooled – all the ladies want to win this one, and they have the talent to match their ambition.
Philip exits the ring, and the referee gives a quick rundown of the rules – elimination by pinfall, submission or exit over the top rope - before nodding to the outside to get the match underway.
Bell Rings.
There’s a scramble for the various items in the ring as the match begins; Koda grabs a beach ball and throws it forcefully at Jessie’s head, whereupon it bounces off into the crowd and is gleefully knocked about by the front block as an extra piece of entertainment in addition to the match itself. Rena takes up a beach towel, and seeing the shallow paddling pool of water set up on one side of the ring she slides out carefully under the ropes and soaks the towel before returning to the ring. The other women are all busy fighting one another, so Rena is able to sneak up upon Rei and Koda, and then zing them both with the heavy wet fabric. Rei and Koda turn around to take Rena on; Koda moves first and Rena jumps aside, throwing the towel over Koda’s head. Blinded, Koda flails around; Rena laughs, only for Rei to catch her out with a snapping kick to the ribs that makes Rena gasp. She stumbles close to the ropes and Rei closes the gap, preparing to kick her over the top; Rena thinks fast, and yells “HEY! OVER HERE BITCH!” in Koda’s direction. Koda takes the bait and charges; Rena shoves Rei into her path, and Koda succeeds in not only eliminating Rei and herself, but in also knocking the referee over with them. All three land in the paddling pool with a splash and a scream….though the ref doesn’t seem to mind too much at having two beautiful women in bikinis literally land in his lap.
Philip: Rei and Koda have been eliminated!
Rena gives the soaked group a little wave, and turns around into a direct attack from Kiley, who has located a cocktail shaker. She opens it and throws the contents, ice cubes and all, over the diva director; Rena shrieks at the cold shock, but retaliates immediately by bulldogging Kiley to the mat, only just missing the now empty shaker. The pair fight on the mat, but are interrupted by both Carma and Jessie so that a four way brawl ensues; there is something of a dogpile and the male fans are treated to the sight of Rena’s curvaceous behind clad only in a miniscule thong as she is ejected forcefully. Kiley backs away of her own accord, and then sees the chance she’s been waiting for – Carma is trading slaps with Jessie, who has her back to her, and Jessie is being forced backward. Kiley feigns dizziness, and then with great speed grabs Jessie from behind, dragon – suplexing her over the top rope and out.
Philip: Jessie has been eliminated!

Kiley has to use every ounce of speed she has in order to get clear as Carma tries to knock her out in quick succession; Rena has taken a few moments to recover and blocks Kiley’s escape, so that the pair are fighting in one of the corners. Kiley retreats up the post and Rena follows, eager to eliminate her; but she has forgotten Carma who moves in behind her and pulls her back down to the mat. Kiley then moonsaults with extreme grace on to the pair of them; she stays in place for a cover and gets a 2, but she does not get up.In fact, Kiley is reluctant to move due to a wardrobe malfunction – her skimpy bikini top has come undone. The other two women shove her off, and Kiley backs away trying to reattatch her attire; Carma eagerly goes after her in her “weakened” state, but now Rena returns the favour and chick – kicks Carma in the back of the head. Carma is practically KOed there and then, and Kiley just manages to fix her top as the referee awards Rena the 3 count.
Philip: Carma has been eliminated!
Kiley doesn’t waste a second in going to work on Rena; with only the two of them left both ladies increase their efforts, and execute a series of powerful suplexes, kicks and other impact – based attacks on one another. Kiley is still enjoying a morale boost from her previous win over Rena, and luring her to the ropes she goes for the “Drop it Like it’s Hot”; Rena though pulls away before Kiley can finish the move, and as Kiley lands she rushes in and delivers a snapmare via Kiley’s hair. Kiley cries out, and runs at Rena; but Rena uses one of Kiley’s own favourite moves against her and hits a strong spinebuster. The fans sense that a climax is imminent, and Rena does not disappoint them; she executes her own trademark powerbomb, and Kiley looks out of it as Rena makes an academic pin, 1,2 –
But out of nowhere “Feel Good Inc” hits, and Rena jumps up, abandoning the pin and anticipating an attack. She looks all around her and shouts, challenging Jade to show her face….but there is no Jade, and Rena is caught totally off guard as Kiley finds her feet and tackles Rena into a roll up. The ref is there straight away, and Kiley just manages to secure the 3 before Rena bursts out, absolutely livid.
Philip: Here is your winner…….Kiley!
Kiley’s music replaces Jade’s, and she exits the ring quickly to protect herself from the furious Rena. Kiley taunts both Rena and the crowd before leaving…..and as for Rena, she’s seldom looked angrier. She stomps to the back, and the fans are sure that she will extract her revenge without undue delay as the show cuts to a break.

Segment: Caught in the act (Credit: Yoko)
Ginger is doing his usual chairman work in his office when The Senator enters his room quite suddenly. He looks slightly worried.
Ginger: Is something going on? Usually, you're much more well mannered.
Senator: I'm sorry, I'm just in a hurry and this is important. Listen, I have reason to believe Mercer Stanton found out about Andy's match and tampered with it.
Ginger: Why would you say that? The contract is safely locked in my desk, and has been since it was written up. I doubt he even knows about it, we kept it a secret. It's not even on the official card that he received.
Senator: Are you sure?
Ginger reaches into his pocket and pulls out a key, and uses it to unlock the lowest part of his desk. He pulls out a sheet of paper.
Ginger: This is the contract, it's still-
His eyes are quickly pulled to it.
Ginger: ...It's changed.
Senator: What was changed?
Ginger: The result of what happens if he wins.
He hands it to Senator. Senator reads it over.
Senator: That's crafty. But you can just change it, right?
Ginger: Not on such short notice, no.
They're both silent for a moment.
Ginger: ...But I think I CAN fix this.
Senator: What, you can fix it?
Ginger: Yeah, thanks a lot for informing me. I owe you again. How did you find out, by the way?
Senator: That's top secret. Besides, I need to be leaving now.
Senator opens the door, and jumps back in surprise, Elias is standing there.
Ginger: ...Can I help you, Elias? Does Mr. Stanton need something?
He grins at Ginger.
Elias: No, just passing by.
Elias steps aside for Senator. Senator exits and begins walking down the hall. Elias is following him.
Elias: Important meeting with Ginger?
Senator: You could say that.
Elias: Just whose side are you on, Steve?
Senator: I wasn't aware there were sides, I thought Stanton supposedly stood for what Ginger stands for?
Elias: You're wrong if you think you can be on both. Mr. Stanton won't tolerate traitors.
Senator: I'm looking out for what's best for me. Right now, I don't know which of them is better in the long run. No point in lying to you, you caught me in there.
Elias: Mr. Stanton isn't going to be pleased, you know.
Senator: Go ahead and tell him. If he wants to take me out, he can go ahead and try. I can handle anything he tosses at me.
Senator keeps walking, and hears Elias now walking in the opposite direction.
End Segment.

Segment: Part One - Stained of Seducive Thoughts (Credit: Jade)
Mmm. Darkness just calmed my soul as I watched the betrayal replay in my mind as if I was watching my life roll by on a strip of one memory. One memory that just stuck into my mind . . . it never came out. Hurt . . . that's what I felt as I saw her just touch that doll with pain and pleasure with a gesture of wanting me . . . more of me. Knocks came on my door as I sat on the couch, watching the flames burn in the fire place with the logs crackling madly. I heard a voice outside my door as I turned my head and tucked the sadness in my chest.
"Jade . . . are you in there?"
I knew it was no use not to respond yet, would they leave me alone? Will they every know what hate I feel inside from her hand touching me, stroking my breast as I jumped back in fear . . . in a frightened moment that paused in my life. Knocks continued as I cleared my throat from the cold air. I jump out of my couch as I run up to the door and pull the door open in a slight crack. I can see that it was Jonny, one of the sound crew and a backstage friend of mine . . . what the hell. I saw the frightened look on his face as he saw the crack open. I pulled him inside as I slammed the door shut with that cold look in my eyes. The fire was gone. I held Jonny against the door with my hands against his shirt and leaned against his chest. I can feel his chest start to expand as his breaths had gotten heavier. I stared at his gleaming eyes from the fireplace as our skin reflected from the light. I leaned in to his ear and started to speak in a soft whisper.
Jade ". . . what do you want with me, Jonny? Do you see what is going backstage; already . . . do you see what she is doing?! She is turning me around and upside down with her wicked ways. You saw us at the last the unemotional kiss 'we' shared was nothing to me but it meant the world to her. Do you believe she enjoyed it more then I did . . ."
I grasp Jonny's shirt even tighter as I pulled him to the wall and slammed his back to the wall, yet again. He seemed to be freaked out from the force I was using but did that bother me . . . no. I pulled Jonny closer to me as he started to sweat from the heat. I rubbed my head onto his chest as I hear his heart beat faster. A bead of sweat dropped onto my head as I quickly snapped my head up to his face. My voice starts to grow a little louder as it goes to my normal tone of talking.
Jade ". . . Jonny, you know I am not a . . . a . . . well, you know I like guys and men. I just like the way they can have no emotion as the luscious time spent together at long nights of pleasure have been so . . . touching. Ah, the feeling of being touched. Touch . . . one of the most useful senses in our minds. Without it, where would we be? Hurt, emotionless, and confused. Don't you think so?"
I stare at his face as he seems to breathe a little slower but more heavily as I drag my leg up his thigh. Slowly, he starts to tremble a little as I smile and bite my lip. I can feel the bite mark I made as the night when ACW went to Japan and Yoko left Mr. Floppy in the room with me . . . alone. I bite hard onto my lip as I start to feel a little blood come out. The sensation just make me break out, talking heavier.
Jade "Jonny . . . don't you? Don't you think that . . . "
I can feel Jonny push me away lightly as I step back with a smile. I watch him with a look of terror on his face. He pushes open the door as he slams it on my face. The wind blows on my face as the fire dies. The room is dark and alone. Scene ends.

Match 2: Predator vs Sakina Khalida, 2 out of 3 falls
The second match of the night has been causing plenty of debate on the ‘net; everyone is waiting to see if ACW’s newest star is as good as her management says she is.
Philip: This match is set for one fall……introducing first, making her ACW debut – from Antalya, Turkey, Miss Sakina Khalida!
”Hepsin Senin Mi” by Tarkan plays, and Sakina walks out, now wearing her simple but striking wrestling attire. She follows in the footsteps of her manager Kiev all the way to the ring, and she looks a little nervous; but most of the fans are friendly, and she enters the ring and acknowledges them with a smile as she warms up.
Kiev waits on the outside, and then “Stay Together for the Kids” hits; the fans start to boo furiously as Predator walks out, looking extremely smug.
Philip: And her opponent, from Winnipeg, Canada…… Predator!
Predator stalks to the ring, ignoring the crowd; he smirks at Sakina, who simply looks back at him, not giving away her inner feelings. The referee is ready for the match to begin, and Sakina takes up a defensive stance.
Bell Rings.
Predator folds his arms and leans against the ropes, waiting for Sakina to do something. The fans dislike his attitude and boo, but Sakina is confused by this and turns to her manager for guidance. As soon as she does this Predator runs forward and clotheslines her down; he laughs as Sakina gets up – but he’s given her the go ahead to attack, and the fans cheer as Sakina runs in and delivers a beautiful enziguri which makes Predator stagger. Sakina closes the gap and brings Predator down with a side Russian legsweep; she covers and gets close to a 2 count, as well as a few choice words of insult from Predator. Predator now has to accept that he’s in a genuine match, and he starts to work on his opponent, delivering a stream of hard forearm blows and making it hard for Sakina to see straight. He whips her into the ropes and nails a big boot; Sakina folds over, and Predator laughs nastily, continuing to taunt her. Kiev is incensed and starts to shout himself, but his inexperience only gives Predator more opportunity as the referee’s attention is diverted. He uses a closed hand punch to Sakina’s face and executes his Pedigree variation; it’s a powerful combination, and Sakina’s response is a little too late, allowing Predator to get the first fall.
The fans boo very loudly at Predator; Sakina is angry with herself, but as she gets up she starts to hear through the boos a few people calling her name, and she starts to understand that the crowd is not at all enamoured of her opponent. Predator is puffed up like a peacock, but his confidence takes a knock as Sakina stands up and simply stares, challenging him with her gaze. Predator feels uncomfortable and moves in quickly, suddenly wanting this match over – but his speed is his error, as Sakina sidesteps him, puts his arms into a chickenwing hold and then applies the bodyscissors. Predator feels as if an iron hoop is being tightened around his chest, for Sakina has incredible crushing power, and he sinks to the mat; the referee asks him if he wants to submit, but Predator is too proud to do so and continues to try and break out of the hold, with every second draining more of his energy. He finally manages it, but Sakina is not concerned; she pulls Predator over to one of the corners as he’s gasping for air, and in a single bound leaps up to the top ropes. She performs the split legged moonsault with consummate grace, and Predator is too dazed to break away in time to stop Sakina levelling the match.

By now the fans are pulling together, and Sakina listens as they start to chant her name; Predator looks ready to spit nails as he gets up, and Sakina wisely turns her full attention back to the match. The crowd’s support gives Sakina confidence, and though Predator starts with a strong attack, making her dizzy, Sakina defends until she is able to land a hefty kick to the gut. Predator wheezes, and Sakina runs to the corner; she hops up on to the turnbuckle and demonstrates another of her gorgeous aerial moves with a missile dropkick to the chest. Predator falls, and Sakina moves in for the cover – but Predator is canny, and he turns Sakina over into the Predator crossface. The fans urge Sakina to resist, and Predator hisses derogatory words into her ear; Sakina’s pride flares, and gives her the strength to not only resist but fight her way out as well. The pair split and Predator grabs her again, to try and powerbomb her into oblivion – but Sakina flips out of his grasp and slaps on the Chaos! The fans love it and Predator’s eyes are on stalks; he flails and Sakina summons all her strength to lift him up and slam him down close to the corner. In a flash she ascends, and there is a cry of surprise and admiration as she performs the Morning Glory. It connects 100%, and the foundation are shaken a little by the response as Sakina pins for the third fall, and the match.
Philip: Here is your winner…..Sakina Khalida!
The fans are going nuts for the sensational win; Predator struggles back to his feet to see Kiev assisting Sakina out of the ring. Kiev looks as if he could hug her, but he maintains his composure, and holds up her hand as they walk to the back, also carefully looking behind them in case Predator decides to try anything. Predator is angry, but he restrains himself, and decides to save his revenge for another day…
Even so, Predator trash talks to the fans as he still continues to parade around the ring. Just then Wolf is seen at the top of the stage sarcastically applauding Predator. Just then the expression of Wolf quickly changes into a more devilish look just before he races to the ring. Predator is ready for him and as Wolf enters the ring Predator charges toward him only to be levelled with a clothesline. Predator gets up again and Wolf begins to beat into him with rights and lefts, Predator reels in the corner and Wolf whips Predator in the opposite corner and Predator bounces out. Wolf hoists Predator on his shoulder in Powerslam Position and BK runs in the ring and pulls Predator off his shoulders. Predator rolls out the ring and BK tries to take Predator but is leve’led with a big boot. BK gets up holding his nose and Wolf pulls out a crowbar that was kept in his boot under his pants. BK's eyes lighten up and Wolf swings it at him but BK narrowly escapes when Predator pulls him out the ring. Predator and BK make their way up the ramp as Wolf taunts the two to a great ovation from the crowd...

Segment: A Trip to the Gym (Credit: Senator)
Coming back from the break, Rena and a jubilant Senator are walking down the corridors of the ACW Arena. Rena seems to have calmed down after her match, which is very fortunate for the Senator himself.
The Senator: …and yes, Angelo was called Crazy Cool Ben in the GFWWE.
Rena: But why?
Senator: I have no idea, but believe it, Angelo is the final key to success that the Stable needed. Now, really, I want to let you know why I am having ol’ Textbook put you through some training here. You are a marvellous Diva champion, but you can take your natural ability so far…
Rena: Oh, you know I got plenty of ability, Sennie…
Senator: Yes, yes, you do, but anyway, I think that you need to improve and refine your wrestling skills. The Senatorial Stable is first and foremost founded upon the idea of seeking personal improvement in the ring. Rena, you are by and away the strongest Diva around, but it is time that you become more than that. I want you to be able to defend yourself should you be put into a match with a member of the regular roster. I see that Jade is challenging you, and she should prove to be quite the challenge to defeat.
Rena: Nah, Jade’s all talk! I’ll show her to challenge me!
Senator: That you will. Ok, just a few more things, we are almost there, first, Mr. Dwight is a married man with three kids, he has a life away from here, and only took this job part-time out of his love of the business, do me a favor and please refrain from trying to seduce him, ok? Also, Mr. Dwight will mainly work with you on mat wrestling, as that is his specialty. He will also help you hone your brawling and high flying skills to some degree. I do not think that will be enough, though, and I will give you a quick personal course in some basic marital arts, which you might need to know to keep up with the likes of Rei Peacecraft. Should you seek some supplemental lessons, you know that I shall indeed be pleased to offer them to you.
Rena: Oh-kay, that sounds fine to me, so when should I show up for your…special lessons?
Senator: Six flat, in the morning, after I finish my usual morning run and warm-up exercises.
Rena: What!? Ohmygawd! Six in the morning! How’s a busy woman like me supposed to wake up that early?
Senator: Well, if there is a will, as the old saying goes, then there is a way…have fun training now!
Fade Out.

Reunion? (Credit: BK/Latino)
The segment opens with BK London walking down the corridor in street clothes, BK doesn't seem to be on the card tonight for the show. As he continues to walk down the hallway he spots something down the hall. BK quickly makes his way toward it and he smiles as he sees something, the camera has yet to see it.
BK: I am indeed shocked, how did you manage to survive it? Please tell me…
The camera turns around and it shows Latino getting a cup of coffee from the cooler. The arena's top almost blows off thanks to the huge ovation for the Latino one.
BK: Oh right...you were saved by your dog, Scarface…
Latino: You know I can remember countless times you were saved by your dog...
BK: Dog? I don't have a dog….
Latino: You know that little perra that trails with you to the ring every match? What’s her name again…..Kiley?
The crowd laughs in amusement at Latino's comment as BK's face seems to be fuming in anger. The anger on BK's face quickly turns into a smirk, and then a little chuckle.
BK: I see you have jokes huh...Well it was pretty funny last Monday while I just happened to catch a glimpse of the end of Warfare and to my surprise I saw you getting pinned one...two....three by Angelo Giovanni…Now don't get me wrong...he's a fine athlete but he is way above your league. And frankly…I am ashamed to even be in your presence...
Latino seems a bit annoyed by what BK said but he doesn't take it to heart.
Latino: Hmm…Well I seem to remember someone last week who picked a fight with Skurai, and then proceeded to get knocked the FUCK out. Yeah I saw it, I saw it as you looked up into the bright lights, eyes glazed over, wondering what the fuck you got yourself into…I remember that look, that’s the same look you had 15 minutes into our Escape the House Match.
BK: Oh you think you've got it all figured out Victor? You think you've got it all neatly put together in a tight little package. You know Latino, I don't really have the time for you...I've got bigger fish to fry, so listen--
Latino: No, you listen. You may think you are the don of this fed, just because you are a former World Champion, just because you've sold a crap CD, just because you've "defeated" some of the biggest names in the company...but let’s get one thing straight...you are not the best. At one time in this fed you were, but you've fallen from those heights. You see the BK London I faced at Spring Into Hell was nothing….NOTHING compared to what I had faced at Samhain long ago. You are nothing but a shell of your former self. So now you know what you can do hermano. You can get out of here. Skurai will beat you and I’ll be on top like always. Adios.
Latino walks away, leaving a seriously annoyed BK as the show cuts to commercials.

Match 3: Andy Starr vs El Froggy Mask (Credit: Rose; Ending events credit: Yoko) The fact that this match is shrouded in controversy only heightens the fans’ anticipation, as Philip enters the ring.Philip: Introducing first, From the ACW Arena’s Janitor’s closet, El Froggy Mask. “Green Hornet” hits on the sound system and El Froggy Mask comes out to a fairly large pop from the sold out crowd. Froggy hops from one end of the stage to the other before beginning his walk down the ramp. He makes it to the ring, leap frogs over the ropes, and takes his corner.Philip: And next, from Keslo, Washington, please welcome Andy Starr. “Fuel” hits on the sound system and Andy Starr comes out to a light prop from the forgetful ACW fans. He makes his way down to the ring with a look of focus in his eyes and one has to wonder what he has planned for His Frogginess. He gets in the ring and takes his corner with the intention of gaining a quick and easy victory.Bell Rings. Froggy hops around his opponent with the speed and grace of a frog and the skill of a ring veteran. He runs forward and hits Andy with a running crossbody and goes immediately into the pin, but Andy kicks out before a count can be made. Andy gets up and Froggy hits him with a snapmare and follows it up with a dropkick that hits Andy in the back of his neck. Froggy is showing Andy that he is no slouch and quickly gives him a wristlock into a hurricanrana. Froggy makes the quick and aggressive cover while The Referee counts 1……..2……., but Andy gets his foot on the ropes. Froggy gets up and goes to hit a running knee drop on the fallen Andy, but he is too slow and Andy moves out of the way. Froggy springs to his feet and runs right into a powerslam by Andy. Andy goes for the cover and The Referee counts 1………2……, but Froggy is able to get the shoulder up. Andy does not stop his offense and nearly immediately goes to dropping some vicious elbows onto Froggy. Froggy starts to move to his feet but as soon as he gets his footing, he is hit with a nice back suplex, but Froggy flips out of hit and dropkicks Andy in the back of the head, knocking him out of the ring. Froggy begins to hop around the ring in glee and waits for his opponent to move. Andy staggers to his feet and turns in time to see Froggy jump over the ropes. Froggy hits a no hands plancha that knocks the breath out of Andy. Andy is caught between Froggy and the protective mat upon impact, so he also takes the brunt of the impact. Both men lie down for a second and try to get their senses about them. Froggy gets to his feet first and “helps” Andy up as well. Froggy slides Andy into the ring and climbs up to the ring apron. He then hits Andy with a springboard legdrop that is truly a sight to behold. Froggy then covers Andy and The Referee counts 1…….2….., but Andy is resilient and gets the shoulder up. Froggy gets up and he is hopping mad at Andy’s refusal to give in. He incoherently argues with The Referee on the speed of his count and takes his concentration off of his opponent briefly. Andy slowly gets to his feet and measures up his distracted opponent. Froggy turns around in time to be beheaded by his invigorated opponent’s forceful clothesline. Andy grabs Froggy by the back of his neck and lifts him back up to his feet. Andy then immediately drops him back down with a stiff DDT that causes the crowd to go wince a bit. Andy hooks both legs and The Referee counts, 1…….2……, but Froggy kicks out. Andy signals for the end and when Froggy gets to his feet, he goes for The Echo Driver. Froggy reverses by pushing Andy against the ropes and then he bends over for a back body drop, but Andy immediately reverses it into The Echo Driver for the pin. He makes the cover and The Referee counts 1………2……….3. Bell Rings. Philip: Here is your winner by pinfall, Andy Starr! Andy Starr helps El Froggy Mask up, and shakes his hand happily. El Froggy Mask exits the ring and heads down the ramp to the back. Andy then gets on one of the turnbuckles and raises his arms in the air triumphantly as the fans cheer.Andy: I'm back! His celebration is interrupted though as Moonlight Sonata begins to play over the sound system. Andy lowers his arms and hops down from the turnbuckle. Mercer Stanton appears at the entrance with a microphone, and very unusually, is without the company of Elias. He claps slowly.Mercer: Good job, Andy, good job. You've won back your contract, right under my nose. Are you happy? The fans answer for him by cheering.Mercer: Let me be the first then, to share with you the specifics of your new contract. He pulls a sheet of paper out of his suit.Mercer: ACW Tryout Match, Andy Starr versus El Froggy Mask. If Andy Starr is the victor, he will have won one Fallout contract. He folds up the paper and puts it back into his suit as the words sink in.Mercer: That's right, you've won a contract exclusive to Fallout. Say goodbye to most of your friends, and say hello to the lower midcard, Andy. : ...Unless you win the ACW Junior Title. Stanton turns around and sees Ginger behind him.Mercer: I'm afraid you're mistaken, he's got a permanent Fallout contract. Ginger hands him a new sheet of paper.Ginger: The contract says otherwise. It says in the event that Andy proves himself worthy, such as by winning the ACW Junior Title, he'll have earned a promotion back to the big leagues. Mercer: That's rubbish, I didn't write that. Ginger: I did. I couldn't take away from the contract you altered behind my back, but I WAS able to slightly alter it behind yours as well. Stanton reads over the contract.Mercer: I must say, I am shocked by this turn of events. But the rule is the rule. I guess we'll see you around here again when you win that title, Andy. Stanton hands the paper and microphone to Ginger, and begins walking into the back.Mercer: This is just the beginning, Ginger. Ginger ignores him, and the show cuts to commercial.
End Segment.

Segment: One big happy stable? (Credit: Angelo)
The scene opens to Senator and Angelo standing at the Senatorial Locker Room door.
Senator: Well....here we are Angelo.
Senator opens the door for Angelo as he walks in and sets his stuff down on a bench. Hunter comes out from the bathroom and then jumps with shock on his face as he looks at Angelo, then at Senator.
Hunter: What’s he doing here?
Senator: Didn't you just see?
hunter: No, I just got here...what’s going on?
Hunter picks up a glass bottle of ice tea and starts to take a drink.
Senator: Angelo's the new member of the Senatorial Stable.
Hunters eye’s bulge open, and he accidentally breaks the bottle by squeezing it, sending glass and liquid everywhere including all over The Senator and Angelo Giovanni.
Hunter: WHAT!?!?! OW!
Hunter holds his hand in pain then looks back up at the two.
Hunter: You're kidding, right?
Senator: Not at all Hunter. This is for real. Angelo, why don’t you go get dried off.
Angelo: No thanks, I got some other business to take care off. Anyways I need to go get Cage….
Hunter: What did you just say?
Senator and Angelo just stare at Hunter, who is looking increasingly angry.
Angelo: What did I say? What’s wrong?
Hunter: You just said you need to get Cage! I didn’t give you permission to talk about him, wiseguy-
Angelo: What the hell are you talking about? I said I have to go changed. I have a match tonight.
Hunter: O-----Oh. Okay I see. Well uh...good luck with that match.
Angelo: Yeah, what ever. See ya Senator.
Angelo just looks at Hunter and gives him a nasty look. He then turns around and walks out the door then Hunter speaks again.
Hunter: Senator? What are you doing? Letting Angelo into the Senatorial Stable without even talking to us about it?
Senator: Hunter, Hunter calm down. I felt as if this was a sure decision. We all can make our own choices, and as the leader, I took it upon myself to do what I had to do.
Hunter: Okay, then I'll make my decision. I don’t want Angelo in this stable.
The camera catches that the door is open a little and through it sees Angelo looking into the room. The camera then cuts back into the room.
Senator:------Angelo is my choice Hunter. You should respect that. Now if you'll excuse me I have something to take care of.
Just as Senator is about to walk away Angelo pops his head in.
Angelo: Cage!
Hunter’s words are quiet but loaded with menace.
Hunter: Can it, Angelo.
Angelo starts laughing at Hunter’s pissed off expression and leaves the room as the scene fades.

Segment: The final “cut” (Credit: Vinnie)
The scene switches abruptly to a much darker part of the building; Vinnie Dulario suddenly steps into the frame of the camera, causing the crowd to uproar in a chorus of boos. It's been a while since we've seen Vinnie Dulario, notably since he lost the gauntlet match at Spring into Hell for Yoko Satoshi's World Title. He seems to be holding up well, dressed in a nice Armani suit. Beside him are two men, both of which are familiar to the crowd who pays attention.
Big Vito is on his right. Vito looks sullen, staring at the floor. He is wearing a thick sweater, with the sleeves rolled up to show off his massive arms. On Vinnie's left is a smaller man, one who hasn't been seen as much. Some of the crowd recognize him from last week. He is very clean cut, professional looking. In one hand he holds a deck of card, and rifles them back and forth. He has a giant grin on his face as he does so.
Vinnie looks up at the card dealer, known only as Mikey, as the sound of the card manipulation cuts through his concentration.
Dulario: Stop that, now.
Mikey looks up at his boss, only nodding as he squares the deck in his fist.
Dulario: Thank you. Alright, last week went well. I don't think anyone's caught on yet, and if they have, they don't seem to care.
Vito: I don't see any problems with management. I mean, Stanton doesn't strike me as the kind of guy who would shut us down.
Vinnie runs his hand along his small goatee while he thinks for a moment.
Dulario: No, Stanton is the kind of man who will exploit us for all we're worth. That's why we need to keep him in the dark about this operation. Mikey, just give me a report about Monday.
Mikey: Uh...I don't know. Things went well, we made a killing. There was a few ACW staff there, including a Superstar.
Dulario: A Superstar?
Mikey: Yeah...Hunter, I think his name was.
Vito: This is good, Vinnie, very good. We need a lot of funding, and if the Superstars start to become high rollers at our little establishment, well, we can make a bundle.
Dulario: I'm not sure if this is a good sign or not. Mikey, can you excuse us for a few moments, please?
The young man nods and steps out of the dressing room, leaving Vito and Vinnie alone. Vinnie heads over and closes the door, then heads back to Vito, speaking in a hushed voice to make sure nobody on the outside can hear him.
Dulario: Now, do the final numbers seem a little off to you?
Vito: Very. I was gonna bring that up. We should have had more cash than what was given to us, especially since we operated a full night. I had Manny spread the word across the arena without giving too much away.
Dulario: Vito, someone is skimming.
Vito stares at Vinnie for a moment, then stares at the closed door, nodding silently.
Dulario: Yeah, I think so too. The kid wasn't too happy with his cut, but he stayed anyway. He's got to be sweetening the deal for himself.
Vinnie pulls out a paper bag, handing it to Vito. Vito looks at it, then reaches inside. He pulls out a deck of cards. He reaches in again, and pulls out a small handgun with a silencer attachment.
Dulario: I trust you know how to deal the table?
Vito: ...I do...
Dulario: Do I have to explain to you what I want?
Vito: No, sir. I'll take care of it. After tonight, nobody will be skimming from you again.
Dulario: That's what I like to hear.
Vito puts the items back in the bag, and the pair head for the door. The scene follows them outside, where Mikey meets up with the two.
Mikey: Alright, where are we setting up tonight?
Vito glances at Vinnie, who only nods.
Dulario: Vito, show him where to set up. Downstairs, basement. I'll check on what's happening in a bit, I have other matters to deal with tonight.
Vinnie walks away, an evil sneer on his face. Vito and Mikey walk away in the opposite direction, Vito keeping a firm grip on the kid's shoulder, cooly glancing around to make sure nobody is paying close attention to what's going on. Vito leads the dead kid walking away, and the scene fades out.
