Thursday Night Meltdown 9th June 2005

Segment – Confusion (Credit: Jade)

Still in the room. Darkness starts to get me. I am seeing things now. My mind is growing clearer. The room starts to glow as the fire starts to crinkle and crackle. The smell of wood dying away brings the essences of hate back to my mind.

"That does it! That's the end of suffering . . . I can't take this anymore. Either it's love or lust with her. What the hell, it doesn't matter. Not anymore. I am going to show what really counts."

I slowly stroke my hair as I watch the gleams of it turn a blondish color at the ends. Was this the end of me? Could I have been threatened by some kind of sex toy that happened to look exactly like me . . . in every single detailed way. I need to know . . . how it exactly feels to know what this demonic toy is doing to her. Yoko. Seems the pages are turning between what used to be a simple friendship . . . turned to a horrible, horrible nightmare.

He knew and I should have listened. Damn myself from ever listening to a toy again. I can feel the tight strangle as I watch her slowly touch and squeeze that toy. Honestly it turned me on. Watching it over and over again. Replaying that video in my head, it gave me a sensation that I have never felt before. Maybe it was lust for me but not love. She slowly kisses that doll as if it was actually me. I want to show her. I want her to see what it is exactly to have me. Should she see or should she feel . . . it's up to me.

I flipped open my cell phone as I dialled the numbers slowly. Each beep, slowly entering. I fall back onto my couch as I hear the rings . . .

Jade "Come on . . . pick up already. Finally! Hey . . . call up Yoko and tell her to meet me for a little chat before our match."

I shut my phone as I throw it across the room. Is this the path I have chosen? I believe so. Scene Ends.

Segment: Dubious Guidance (Credit: Yoko)

The scene opens inside of Yoko Satoshi's locker room. The camera pans across the couch. We see the Real Doll from a previous show, though it's in much worse shape now. The dress is torn pretty bad, though it still covers everything. Some hair has been noticeably pulled out. There are indentions on the neck, and various lesions in the skin all over. Some of the fingers are bent back as if broken.

The camera continues to pan over and we see Yoko on the other end of the couch, cradling Mr. Floppy.

Mr. Floppy: I think you're going to do well tonight. Not like you wouldn't have anyway, but now you can teach her a lesson.

Yoko: And then no one will mess with me, and they'll like me, right?

Mr. Floppy: Right. People don't like people who let others walk all over them. Things will change when you do this, like how things changed when you kidnapped BK London.

Yoko: I met this new girl earlier... She was really pretty.

Mr. Floppy: What? Someone ELSE?

Yoko: Don't worry. I complimented her, and she just ignored me. I'm not even going to go there.

Mr. Floppy: I was about to slap you for not learning anything.

Yoko: If you slapped me, I'd rip out your stuffing.

She pets him as the camera fades out.

End Segment.

Match 8: Angelo vs Wyvern – ACW International Title Match

The show is set to finish strongly with two title matches, and there is great excitement among the fans as Philip comes to get down to business.

Philip: The penultimate match tonight is scheduled for one fall, and it is for the ACW International Championship! Introducing first, from New York, the challenger and a member of the Senatorial Stable – Angelo Giovanni!

”The Way I Am” hits, and Angelo walks out to a very loud response – mostly boos, but there are a few cheers from the smarter fans who are pleased to see Angelo getting a shot at a major title. Angelo plays his role to perfection, chin – flicking the crowd and exuding an aura of smooth yet vicious intent. The Senator accompanies him, following a little way behind.

He reaches the ring, and after a few moments “Trip Like I Do” plays, sending the crowd into a frenzy of cheers.

Philip: And his opponent, from Tacoma Washington – he is the leader of the New Breed, and defending ACW International Champion – Wyvern!

Wyvern moves purposefully to the ring; he smiles at the fans, but is taking this match 100% seriously, and doesn’t take his gaze from Angelo for one second. As he enters the ring the referee looks to see if he is accompanied, and seeing that he is alone the referee makes the decision to send the Senator to the back. Senator is a little miffed, but given that he hasn’t been all that successful in such a capacity this evening he withdraws, giving Angelo a last few words of encouragement as he does so. The referee takes and holds up the belt, and the fans settle just a bit as the ok is given for proceedings to commence.

Bell Rings.

Wyvern and Angelo circle at a brisk pace, conducting a little verbal sparring until without warning Wyvern moves in and clubs Angelo with a couple of forearm blows. Angelo staggers but then fights back and the men trade some hefty punches, getting closer until they eventually tie up. Angelo is fired up by the mental confidence that his acceptance into the Senatorial Stable has given him, and starts to make some ground, timing his shots with more care, and when the chance presents itself he ducks a punch from Wyvern and slips behind him to go for a German Suplex. Wyvern’s no fool, however, and as soon as Angelo locks on he grabs Angelo’s hands and rolls the pair of them forward into position so that Angelo’s shoulders are down. The referee slides in for the count and almost reaches 2 before Angelo bursts out, looking annoyed at being caught out. He taunts Wyvern, who just shakes his head and refuses to be drawn; Angelo glowers and runs forward, and Wyvern neatly sidesteps. Instead of hitting the ropes, however, Angelo baseball slides out and drops to the floor – Wyvern loses track of him and moves to the centre, trying to scan 360 degrees. Luck isn’t on his side, and he is facing away when Angelo resurfaces; Angelo springs from the top rope into the Mafiarana, and makes a lightning pin while Wyvern’s head is still trying to steady itself from its meeting with the canvas. Wyvern kicks free at just after 2, and Angelo’s confidence soars again; the fans are impressed, and they are wondering if Angelo might be the one to finally end Wyvern’s title reign as the contest continues….

This thought isn’t lost on Wyvern himself, and he shows that he’s not prepared to give up his title easily by turning up the speed to max, and forcing Angelo back into one of the corners, kicking repeatedly at his abdomen. Angelo slides down against the post, and Wyvern traps his neck against it with his foot so that Angelo can’t make another sly escape. The ref gives it a 5 count, and perhaps inspired by this Wyvern pulls Angelo up and starts to deliver a counted 10 punch. Just as he’s delivering the 10th, however, Angelo leans forward and knees him unseen in the groin. Wyvern is understandably distracted, and Angelo is able to execute his backbustin’ drop to perfection; he pins with a hooked leg, and the referee counts 1..2…thr – kickout! Wyvern shoves Angelo away, and looks less than impressed with Angelo’s tactics. He rolls to his feet and before Angelo can get back to his, he nails his backflipping fameasser, making Angelo crumple holding his face in pain. With the fans now perching on the edges of their seats, Wyvern coolly starts to set up the Deus Ex Machina; Angelo is alert enough to sense the danger and scrabbles for the ropes so that Wyvern can’t get it locked in before Angelo is in reach of safety. Thwarted, Wyvern has to rethink – and he gets very little time to do this as Angelo pulls himself up using the ropes and then suddenly backflips from the second to strike Wyvern before he can take evasive action. The crowd inhales deeply as Angelo goes all out for the Italian Decimator – but Wyvern counters out of it in the nick of time, hooks up Angelo’s arms and delivers his Double Underhook piledriver. The impact is massive and Wyvern holds Angelo’s shoulders down for the referee to count the 1,2,3.

Philip: Here is your winner, and still ACW International Champion……Wyvern!

The fans cheer for the result, and Wyvern takes his belt, sliding out of the ring and wary in case the rest of the Senatorial stable decides to take issue with the result. He glances back at Angelo over his shoulder and reflects on how close he was to victory at certain points in the match, and is certain that Angelo will only continue to get stronger…..

Angelo himself curses his bad luck as he gets up, but he is not disheartened; he’s more than held his own, and with Wyvern about to face the biggest challenge of his ACW career at Omega Effect, he senses that there may soon be fresh chances at glory for him as the show cuts to a break.

Match 9: Yoko vs Jade – ACW World Title Match

The fans have seen one excellent title match, and now the second is imminent; no one is quite sure what Jade or in fact Yoko have let themselves in for here.

Philip: The main event tonight is a singles contest, set for one fall, and it is for the ACW World Championship! Introducing first, the challenger…..from Okinawa Japan, the Asian Angel from Above, Jade!

”Feel Good Inc” grinds into life, and Jade comes out with her features as still and composed as ice. No one can be sure just what she’s feeling inside, but her professionalism is not in doubt and she looks every inch ready to take the fight to her opponent.

Philip: And her opponent, also from Okinawa Japan, she is the reigning ACW World Champion…..Yoko Satoshi!

The crowd gives a strong but mixed response as Yoko comes out, and they become a little more restless as it is shown that she has both Mr. Floppy and her croquet mallet with her in addition to her title belt. Yoko reaches the ring and places both the mallet and Floppy against one of the ring posts; Jade moves closer to the referee and speaks softly, and the referee responds by asking Yoko to remove her belongings to the outside of the ring. Yoko glares a little but complies, and Philip moves over in his seat so that he’s as far from the timekeeper’s table now bearing the fluffy fiend as possible.

Once these minor issues have been resolved, the referee raises the belt and without further ado signals for the match to begin.

Bell Rings.

Both women react at the exact same moment, closing the gap to one another and kicking out so that their legs clash. Yoko is marginally faster on her follow – up and plants a blow to Jade’s ribs; Jade scowls and moves in to tie up. Being of a similar build and height the contest is quite evenly matched, and for a few moments there is little movement as each woman does her best to prove her strength by pushing the other back. It is Jade who succeeds in getting the better drive and she steers Yoko back into the corner, trying to hold her there while attacking her lower body with knee and foot strikes; Yoko takes some punishment but is able to hop up to the first rope and from there use the spring in the cords along with her natural agility to jump over Jade. Jade spins around rapidly, but not quickly enough to avoid being suplexed by Yoko and covered; It barely gets 1.5 but Yoko has made her point, and Jade can see that she needs to raise her game. She does so right away by beating Yoko in the race to be up first, and whips her into the ropes at close range. The crowd watches as Jade produces a string of powerful clotheslines, each time adjusting her own stance and position so that Yoko has little time to think of a suitable counter, and she delivers four such blows before Yoko gets her head together and holds on to the ropes to stop the perpetual motion. At once Jade makes a dash forward to try and send Yoko out of the ring; Yoko sidesteps and grabs Jade’s hair as she ends up next to her. Jade cries out as Yoko holds her head and rubs her cheek hard against the ropes, and a livid friction burn is seen to be appearing there as a now angered Jade elbows her way out.

Jade is under no illusions about the frame of mind Yoko is in, and as her scorched skin continues to sting her own anger becomes hotter. The two women approach one another and swap a few punches and kicks; both are experienced enough to be able to channel their frustration, and the air itself seems to crackle with intent as Jade takes a fleeting chance and bulldogs Yoko into the canvas. Yoko hurries to get up, but Jade is faster and locks in her sleeper / bodyscissors combination so that Yoko is forced to remain grounded. The fans are divided as Yoko tries to free herself; many cheer for her, but there is support for Jade too, with the fans impressed at her determination and skill. After about 90 seconds, Yoko’s eyes flicker and the referee moves forward to lift her hand; it stays up, and with a concentrated effort Yoko fights her way out of the hold. Jade rolls clear to avoid any sudden attack and is back on her feet in moments; Yoko puts on a burst of speed and launches herself into a spear. Against larger opponents this move is difficult for Yoko to use effectively, but here it’s a different matter, and she brings Jade down to the mat. There is some consternation among the crowd as Yoko uses her bodyweight to hold Jade down and batters her about the head, not in a frenzied manner but in a methodical, rhythmic and totally pitiless manner. She continues this until Jade is badly dazed and then shifts into a formal pin; Jade responds on instinct just after the 2 count, and without warning slaps Yoko hard while she’s in range. The crowd ripples, and the two women give each other withering stares as they part and rise to face off once more.

[Alicia "Atomic" Kitsune]

It’s almost as if a fresh bell has been rung; Yoko and Jade practically hurl themselves at one another, and now they are definitely looking to take each other down without delay. Yoko scores a powerful dropkick, but Jade turns her fall backward into a flip, lands on her feet and boots Yoko viciously in the stomach as she advances, making Yoko stagger backward. Jade nips in and hits a fast powerbomb to cover; it gets 2, and Jade pulls Yoko back up only to be raked across the eyes and lifted for Yoko’s rare but impressive Jumping piledriver. The fans get on their feet, expecting this to be the deciding blow – but Jade’s shoulder comes up at 2.5, and she gives Yoko a condescending smirk as she throws her off. Yoko’s eyes are spheres of ice as the pair engage again, and in her anger she surprises Jade with a facebuster to the knee; Jade reels, and sinks to her knees, allowing Yoko a clear shot at the Pop from Okinawa. The force and emotion which Yoko feeds into the attack is shocking, and it is only because Jade moves so that the blow impacts her shoulder that she isn’t knocked out at that very moment. Even so Jade yells in pain and clutches her shoulder, and Yoko moves in for the coup de grace – except that Jade fights though the pain barrier and kicks straight upward to connect with the side of Yoko’s head. Yoko’s vision blurs for a moment, and Jade sends the fans wild by nailing the C4 – she covers, 1,2,thr – Yoko kicks out by the narrowest of margins, and Jade is stunned. With her own body aching all over Jade picks herself up and attempts a repeat – but this time she is not quick enough, and Yoko kicks her in her shoulder again before wrenching back on that same arm. The pain is excruciating, and Jade has no option but to submit before any further or lasting damage is done. The referee signals for the bell.

Philip: Here is your winner, and still ACW World Champion………Yoko Satoshi!

Yoko doesn’t cease her attack; she kicks Jade to the mat and drops an elbow on her. She then grabs her legs and crosses them, and quickly turned her over into The Old Ball and Chain. She holds her in the move for a bit as the referee tries to pry her off. Yoko gives in and lets go and retreats to her corner as the referee checks on Jade.

Mr. Floppy: Do it.

Yoko nods, and reaches down through the ropes and grabs her croquet mallet. She approaches the referee and the fallen Jade, and swings the mallet into the referee's hip, causing him to collapse. Security from the backstage area runs out, but hesitates at getting in the ring.

Mr. Floppy: Do you guys really want to try it?

They do not enter. Yoko pushes Jade over with her foot, and swings the mallet directly down into her stomach. Jade cries out and immediately gasps for air. Yoko raises it up in the air, and swings it down a second time. Jade tries to turn over to protect herself. Yoko tosses the mallet away, forces Jade onto her back, and sits down on her stomach. Jade coughs up a bit of blood. Yoko bares her teeth and slaps Jade across the face.

Jade: I...hate you...

The words penetrate deep into Yoko's mind. Jade hates her, it's as simple as that. Yoko looks around and hears that the fans are booing her intensely, the first time she has tuned in the boos tonight.

Mr. Floppy: What are you doing? Strangle her, kill her!

Yoko: KILL? This was supposed to stop people from hurting me!

Mr. Floppy: You have to kill her in order to achieve that! Do it!

Yoko looks down at Jade, and around at the fans, and at Mr. Floppy. She stands up.

Yoko: No.

Mr. Floppy: No? Then you're just going to ruin your life. You have to do this to be happy.

Yoko smiles and shakes her head.

Yoko: Jade's words and the fans' reaction made me realize the truth. A truth I've known all along but chosen to ignore. When Sato drowned, why did everyone hate me? When we kidnapped BK, why did everyone hate me? Why did I ignore my family so long after you showed up? Why did that thing happen to Kross, just because he knew me? Why did Jade stop being my friend? Why does she hate me now? Why are the fans booing? Mr. Floppy, you've caused all of these things, like Alicia tried to tell me!

Mr. Floppy: That's not-

Yoko: Yes it IS true. Everything I've done that has caused me pain has been your idea.

Mr. Floppy: Only to make your life better.

Yoko: Better? Look around, NO ONE likes me.

Mr. Floppy: I do, and Mr. Stanton does.

Yoko: One person, and one rabbit doll. You've ruined my life!

Yoko grabs him by the ears and hops out of the ring, and runs through the security, to the back. Everyone rushes into the ring to tend to Jade as the camera follows Yoko through various corridors.

Mr. Floppy: What are you doing?!

Yoko: I can't bring myself to destroy you, but I can do this.

She tosses him into one of the random boxes stacked in some of the hallways, and picks up the box and moves on to one of the custodial supply rooms.

She writes something down on some paper, and tosses it in with him.

Mr. Floppy: What's this?

Yoko: Directions for Yuki to put you back under mom's spell tags, I understand now that that's what kept you dormant.

Mr. Floppy: ..You can't mail me back.

Yoko: Watch me.

She grabs a roll of tape and tapes the box shut, and then tapes another piece of paper to it with an address, and carries the box to the ACW mail room.

Mr. Floppy: Come on, let me out of here. I'll be good.

Yoko puts some stamps on the box and sets it down in the outgoing box.

Yoko: Goodbye, Mr. Floppy...

She leaves the room.

Mr. Floppy: LET ME OUT OF THIS GOD DAMN BOX, YOU WHORE!

His cry goes unanswered. The room is empty, and still.

Is this really the end for Floppy?

Can the Senator handle the disagreements between his stable members?

And does anyone really have any idea of just what Mercer Stanton has planned for ACW?

Time, as always, shall tell.

Fade to Black.

End of Show.

BK: Come on dammit, get up Ness !!
Kiley: Oh if they screw this up they are definitely not getting paid.

Skurai begins to get up and so is Ness, Ness is taken down by a clothesline by Skurai and then gets up only to recieve another. Skurai is beginning to feel it and he suplexes Ness before almost crushing his neck with a Leg Drop. Skurai covers Ness but both of the Santanas pull him off. They begin stomping him out and they whip him off the ropes but Skurai fires back with a Double Clothesline. Skurai whips Felix Jr. into the corner and as Felix Sr. is on all fours getting up Skurai runs and launches himself off his back hitting a Poetry in Motion like move. Jr. drops and falls out the ring, Skurai turns around and Ness kicks him in the abdomen and hits a Tiger Driver, driving him into the mat.
-------------------------------------------------
TIIAAAGGARRR DRRRRIIIIVVVAAAARRRR!! Really though, BK and Kiley's commentary was great, and the match made all the participants look credible.
