Opening Segment: Strange Circumstances, Stranger Contracts (Credit: Hunter)

ACW’s fans are as enthusiastic as ever as Meltdown begins; not only are there all the consequences of Seven Deadly Sins to be resolved, but the inter -federation tournament with HWL has increased speculation to boiling point. The camera pans the arena, taking in the atmosphere, and then the show kicks into life.

The Alphatron flashes on and the first thing visible is the word "Hunter." The crowd cheers, even though they're still a little confused about what happened at Seven Deadly Sins, much like everyone else. The camera zooms out and the object is revealed to be Hunter's Tag Team Title. The title is perched silently on Ginger's desk, and the Chairman of ACW sits behind his desk, arms folded, looking at the other side of the room. The camera turns and reveals the Senator to be standing there, his respective Tag Team Title drapped over his shoulder.

Ginger: Now, Steve, these are very strange circumstances. And I know the furthest thing on all of our minds is the Tag Team Titles, but regardless, we must still act with them. This morning, as you know, Hunter was imprisoned. This means that he will be unable to help you defend your Tag Team Titles. Thus, I must unfortunately vacate the titles effective immediately.

Ginger doesn't have to say another word. Senator slowly and reluctantly takes his title, looks at it for a moment, and hands it over to Ginger. Ginger then places the title next to its partner.

Ginger: That's all.

Senator nods and walks out the door. As soon as the door closes, it reopens again and a rather fat man wearing a cowboy hat and a cheap excuse for a suit walks in. Ginger looks at him and slowly raises an eyebrow.

Ginger: ...yes? Wait...oh, I suppose you're Jack Nivi, correct?

Nivi: Jack Nivi, warden of the Lansley County Prison, yessir.

Ginger: Ah. Now, you are aware that one of my many employees has now taken...residence in your prison?

Nivi: Yeah, that Hunter fella.

Ginger: Indeed. Well, I'm going to tell you a little story. Have a seat.

Nivi: No thanks, I'm good.

Ginger: All right. Now, when Hunter first entered the company, he got the standard open contract which gave him barely any money. As days, weeks, and months went by, I saw the potential in him. By early this year, he had already cemented himself in main event status.

Nivi: Your point?

Ginger: I'm getting there. Anyhow, I realized that he was a top draw to this company. So, we reworked a contract. He now is on a written contract which guarantees him a lot of money. This contract officially comes to an end sometime next year, but that's unimportant.

Nivi: Well, I don't see the point. He's in prison, and he ain't gettin' out.

Ginger: I'm aware of that, and I'm not saying that he should get out. But, regardless, his contract is...unique.

Nivi: Oh? How so?

Ginger: ...well, it states that he must appear on ACW television at least once every week, unless he has an injury, which he doesn't.

Nivi: I could break his leg for you.

Ginger: You misunderstand. I'm not trying to go against the contract. I'm trying to honor it.

Nivi: ...what?

Ginger: I am proposing that every Monday and Thursday a team of my cameramen be allowed to film him for a five minute spot for our show...in your prison.

Nivi: WHAT? That's preposterous. He's arrested, that contract doesn't apply.

Ginger: Actually, the contract states that he must appear "by any means necessary."

Nivi: ...you're kidding. Well, what happens if I don't allow these cameras and such?

Ginger: You'd be sued for well over a million dollars for breach of contract.

Nivi begins to sweat, then slowly slumps into a chair.

Nivi: This is insane.

Ginger: I realize that this in very strange-

Nivi: You're damn right!

Ginger: ...but I suppose we could make it simple. He is filmed on the days I mentioned, and only him. Five minutes, no more, no less. We'll probably have to do this until the contract ends.

Nivi: Couldn't I just breach the contract and you wouldn't have to sue me?

Ginger: My lawyers are less forgiving than I am.

Nivi sighs.

Nivi: Fine.

Ginger: Good, we'll start Monday.

Nivi takes a deep breath and slowly stumbles to his feet. He turns and walks out the door, trying to comprehend exactly what's going on. Ginger doesn't seem as phased by these circumstances, and he simply returns to some paperwork on his desk.

Segment: Change of Plans (Credit: Senator)

The crowd appears to be a bit relaxed at this point, at least, they did until Hail to the Chief plays, evoking a large cheer from the cheap seats to the front row. The Senator walks out to a loud ovation, wearing his customary suit, as he calmly walks to the ring, with a clearly relieved look on his face, and even takes the time to slap hands with a few fans on the way to the squared circle, taking a microphone with him. In the ring, the Senator waits for a moment, allowing for the audience to settle down again before speaking.

The Senator: Well, well, well…well, now, that is one heck of an ovation for you to give to a loser!

Phillips laughs for a moment before going back to the microphone.

Senator: Yes, make no mistake, I lost that match last Saturday, but, really, I do believe I won far more than I lost. As I stand before you people today, the chief executive official of Alpha Championship Wrestling is none other than Chairman Gingerdude, and for that I can only breathe out a deep sigh of relief! You know, the moment I slipped up, and got pinned for the three count, for the first time in my career, I did not feel rage at myself for losing, or a deep sense of resentment towards my opponent for proving their superiority over me. I felt pleased that I could go out there and under the most adverse circumstances possible, I put on the performance of a lifetime. Yoko Satoshi, congratulations on your victory! You won fair and square, the way it should be, and that, my friend, is nothing, but the truth!

The Senator pauses for a moment to let a large cheer reside in the Arena, adjusts his collar, cracks his neck and sighs, before returning to his speech with a more serious tone.

Senator: Yes, I am relieved that I lost, but at the same time, I also realized that I also most likely failed at my one real chance at making it to the top of the mountain, at gaining the most valuable prize in the game. In fact, although nobody else knew this, that was going to be my last match here in ACW. I am a physical wreck, every morning it is a struggle just to get out of bed. While the adrenaline rush has always been enough to keep me distracted in the ring, it is not enough away from it. Constant training can only get you so far, and my dual schedule is not the easiest one in the world to keep up. I figured that if I quit now, I could go out and do what I have wanted to do for a long time now. I could finish the ACW/HWL tournament, go on my dream tour of Japan, finally come back to my home state, work on re-election, run my own hometown fed, DCW, finally go back to working on my personal business, and heal my wounds, which will most likely take some drastic surgery in some cases to fully heal. But what do you know? Several other people seem to have had the same thoughts, and have also left, Wyvern, Rose, Ridley, and a number of others have all taken off, at least for the time being, leaving ACW in a vulnerable state. I thought to myself long and hard, and realized that I could not abandon ACW in its time of need. ACW needs me now, more than ever! My bum knee, bad back, and stiff neck can all wait for the time being, after all, look what I was able to squeeze out of them at Seven Deadly Sins, with a drastically preoccupied mind! This old man can still go in the ring, you better believe that!

The Senator once again pauses for a moment before continuing, and fixing the camera with an intense stare.

I may have neglected to set up any plans for this month in ACW, but rest assured, I am ready for a challenge, and I am ready to provide one as well. Anybody who thinks that they have enough Toukon, enough fighting spirit to take on the Senator can meet with me next Monday, right here in the middle of the ring. I will issue all of you erstwhile challenges my customary warning, though, when you step into the ring with the Senator, you step into the ring with the very best the business has to offer! I will break you down, wear you out, chew you up, and spit you out like the insignificant waste of space you are if you do not come prepared, and that, my friends, is once again nothing…but the truth!

Phillips tosses the microphone to a ringside official, as he walks away from the ring.

Fade out.

Segment: Scarlet Dreams (Credit: Scarlet, Yoko Satoshi for the end)

Er, her dress was _hideous_ at that party, no fashion sense at all. Except if you compared her tastes to that of a blind leprosy infected baboon. Now there's a baboon in front of me. What in Allah's holy name is going on?

I see my father, crucified above me, his eyes filled with pain, his lips drawn back in a blood curdling shriek. I can't block out his screaming, I can't, it's everywhere, someone help--

Good, it ceases to scream. Wasn't crucifixion invented by the Romans as the most brutal forms of capital punishment? I think its root, cruciare, means to torture. I'm terrible with languages, why am I thinking about this?

The baboon is taking me to dinner. No, no, I just ate, thank you very much. It looks lovely, but--oooh, sushi! Well just a few pieces, thank you, but I really must--

Oh, hello Daredevil. I didn't expect to see you here. No, I am not worried about facing you on Thursday, thank you very much. Try this teka maki. You don't like sushi? Tut tut, broaden your mind I say, broaden!

A glass of wine? Well just a spot I suppose. Oh, isn't that funny, the baboon is playing waiter! Let's pretend we're snobby customers, so as to avoid paying a tip?

I don't really see the need to go to the bathroom, but if you insist...how queer, Daredevil is pouring something into my drink, I can see him from here! Maybe he's adding sugar, that wine just wasn't sweet enough. How thoughtful!

Hm, the ladies' room is clean enough. What's that on the walls? DEATH TO HER. Oh my, grafiti is so...common! Just like the pleasure faith. And BK London.

The baboon is leading me back to the table. That's so kind of you dear, really, but I can walk, you know. I almost defeated Yoko Satoshi for the world title! Almost! But you musn't get too flustered, I'm only a B list celebrity currently--

Hello again Daredevil! He's cute, nice body. A very unusual face, but nothing some plastic surgery couldn't fix! Now if I just peered into his thoughts...

Oh my. Why are there women lying around, broken up and bloody? Is this what he likes? Is this what he does--?!

Well, I suppose everyone has some weird quirk or another. Some plastic surgery, a new wardrobe, get rid of that unhealthy fixation on beating up women and we have some real potential here!

No, I will not drink anymore wine, I feel woozy enough as it is. Just one sip? Alright, then, I suppose one sip can't hurt...

I can see myself dropping to the floor, the wine glass falling off the table and spilling the remainder of its contents on the carpet. He picks me up and carries me out of the restaurant, into a black jeep, and off we go.

Date rape is a concept I never fully understood. Surely this situation is not date rape! I mean, it was the baboon's fault for hooking us up, if you want someone to sue it should be him, not Daredevil!

What am I saying! He's taking off his clothes, I'm stirring to consciousness, no no no I can't move, something is wrong, something is not right, why can't I move, Allah save me!

I guess Allah sends help in the most curious of vessels. No, it's not the baboon, it's...

Yoko Satoshi?!

She bashes Daredevil over the head with a steel chair. Oh my, now she's hitting his face with her croquet mallet! Yoko, please try not to get blood everywhere, this dress is new, and I want to wear it again in about three years!

Thank you for saving me, dear. Oh, there's no need for the hug, no need at all, but it does feel rather nice. You're staring at me again! Heehee, give Scarlet a kiss and make it _all_ better...

"Ahh!"

Scarlet jumped with a start as she saw the face of Yoko Satoshi loom overhead. She had been dozing off in her dressing room, tired after a night of partying with Ashton Kutcher and Lindsay Lohan.

"I uh...I came to wish you good luck on your match, it's soon. ...I didn't mean to intrude on your rest," Yoko said. They were both silent for a moment, when Yoko spoke up again. "I came to wish you luck because you impressed me in our match."

"Well isn't that nice, how thoughtful. I feel obliged to give you something, Ms. Satoshi," Scarlet said. Yoko gave her a questioning stare, and before she could move, Scarlet gave her a quick kiss on the cheek.

"Toodles!" Scarlet waved, a flurry of red sticks, and ambled out the door. Yoko slowly raised her hand to her cheek, a small smile coming across her face.

End.

Segment: Unwanted Assistance (Credit: BK)

As the scene opens in the Parking Lot where the BMW Series 3 rolls up, the car is looking even more extravagant as it would seem normally because BK obviously got it washed. But even more noticeable a beautiful familiar blonde female is seen sitting in the passenger seat. As the car pulls up in clear view the camera can now pick up the furious look on London's face. What could he be mad about with a beautiful woman sitting in the seat next to him? He angrily gets out of the car and slams the door behind him before going to the back to get his luggage.

??: ....BK, BK !!!

BK continues to get his luggage from the back and the woman opens the door herself and slams it behind her. The clicking of her heels echoes through the parking lot as she walks to the back of the car. BK takes a look at her and she seems angry as she places her hands on her hips.

BK: What Paris?

She continues to glare at him and now the fans realize that is Paris Summers, formerly the manager of the team NeW HollyWooD. BK uses his key to open the trunk and it flies up.

Paris: Didn't you hear me screaming from the front of the car?! I know you heard me BK. Are you even listening right now?

BK hoists his heavy sports bag out of the trunk and he begins to walk away. Paris hurries in front of him and stops him.

BK: Will you please get out of my way?

Paris: Well can you at least get my luggage?

BK: Listen, I don't even know why Ginger paired us up. I don't need a valet, much less a valet as prissy as you. I can handle things myself. But since you’rr my valet, if anything you should be carrying my stuff.

BK takes his light heavyweight title and rests it in the arms of Paris. Her arms almost sink to the ground but she manages to hold the heavy title up.

BK: Now get your stuff...and let’s head back to the locker room....

BK also drops the car keys in her hand.

BK: ....and lock up when you’re done please.

BK heads through the double doors, entering the arena and Paris struggles to hold all of these objects up. She drops them and then lets out a huge scream before grunting and trying to pick them up as we had to commercial.

Match 1: RDK vs. Beau James - SSW Title Match (Credit: RDK; ending events credit: Yoko)

The crowd are looking very excited for tonight's show and cannot wait to get started as “Rocky Top” hits the arena and Beau James struts out down the ramp while raising his hands to the crowd. He climbs over the ropes and then goes off the ropes while running and raising his hands to the crowd once more. He gets a good reaction before lowering his hands and waiting for RDK to come out.

Philip: The following contest is scheduled for one fall and is for the SSW Heavyweight Championship! Already in the ring, from Kingsport, he is the former SSW Champion....Beau James!!!!

The crowd give a final cheer to him before Philip begins to speak once more...

Philip: And his opponent...he is the reigning SSW World Champion and #1 contender for the ACW World Championship, at 6,7....The Macho Man Randy Kanyon!!!!

The crowd go berserk and blow the roof off almost literally as RDK rushes through the curtains to "Macho Man" He shakes his arms vigorously as he yells and reveals much happiness despite wearing his sunglasses, which partly conceals his emotion. He has some tape on his abdomen and arms but he seems to be more then well from his Hell In A Cell Match up only 5 days ago. He climbs in the ring and takes off his SSW title that sits upon his waist. He raises it to the crowd as he climbs to the turnbuckle and millions of photos flash as he raises the championship above his head. He then gets down from the turnbuckle and hands the strap to the referee. The referee raises the strap and Beau James shakes RDK's hand before they both go to their corners. The referee signals for the bell and it rings, putting a beginning to the match...

Bell Rings.

The two go towards each other and stall, circling the ring. Beau has a twinkle in his eye, seemingly determined to win his championship back. After a while the two finally lock up and RDK quickly arm drags Beau down to the mat.

McNally: It's gonna take a lot more then that to take down Beau James!

Edison: He’s the Macho Man RDK McNally! Jesus give em' some time!

RDK picks Beau up and tries to irish whip him but Beau reverses. RDK goes off the ropes and Beau goes for a clothesline, but RDK ducks the clothesline and goes off the opposite ropes. Beau turns around and is just in time for a rebounding RDK to be in mid air, hitting him with a flying clothesline. Beau goes down to the mat and RDK somersaults onto the mat and then springs to his feet.

Edison: As you can see RDK is in tip top shape even AFTER his Hell In A Cell match up, proving how full of stamina this superstar is! Still young, this man has a life time ahead of performing ahead of him McNally!

McNally: My money is still on the tricky and savvy veteran Beau James!

By now Beau James is of course up and the two men once again grapple. RDK goes for another arm drag but Beau won't let him take him down that easy, he instead clotheslines RDK down to the mat and then gives him an elbow drop. Beau covers but only gets a one. RDK is up with haste and he hits Beau with right, once, twice, again, again, he is laying the smackdown! RDK hits him with what looks to be his 6th smack, he then reels back and looks at the crowd while making a just bring it gesture with his hand. He goes for a clothesline but Beau ducks and then catches both of RDK's arms with his arms from behind and backslides RDK to the mat.

ONE


TWO

Kick out!

RDK rolls over to the turnbuckle and uses the ropes to get up. He charges Beau but Beau takes control, irish whipping RDK towards the ropes. RDK catches himself in the ropes, stopping his trip back to Beau. He then walks over to Beau and tries to get a hold of him but Beau gets a hold of The Macho Man instead! He knees him in the gut a few times and then goes to the top rope. Beau raises a fist to the crowd and gets a pop. He then jumps off the turnbuckle, looking to go for a Double Axe-Handle...but wait what’s this??! RDK has recovered and has grabbed Beau's legs!!! Beau's back slams into the mat and RDK drags him towards the middle of the ring.

McNally: Is he? Is he going to-

Edison: TEXXXXASSSSSSS CLOOOOOVERRRRRR LEEEEAF!

RDK has indeed locked in the Texas Cloverleaf as he tightens the hold in the centre of the squared circle. Beau's teeth screech against each other as he squints his eyes and shakes his hand above the mat. The crowd are getting excited now and are stomping their feet. Beau opens his eyes widely now and then figures its now or never. With much strength, Beau crawls towards the ropes. RDK should be much stronger, but it is purely will that keeps Beau from being stopped by RDK, and his will is rewarded as he reaches the ropes and the referee calls for a rope break.

McNally: I told you he'd pull through, he’s down, but not out!

Edison: OoOoh No!!

RDK lets go of Beau, letting him try and get back some feeling in his legs. Beau rolls over and rubs his legs with his hands, after a few moments they are feeling fine and he pushes the referee away. Beau gets to his feet and signals that this match isn't over. He charges towards RDK with a shoulder block. RDK doesn't budge. Beau, angry, goes off the ropes and makes ANOTHER charge at RDK, this time with a clothesline. It however is in vain as RDK lifts Beau up out of nowhere for the Macho Slam! It appears that this is gonna be the end of the match right here, but Beau reverses the maneuver into the DDT!

Edison: DDT! DDT! Beau's special move!

McNally: As much as I'm rooting for Beau, I DIDN'T see that one coming!

RDK goes down, flopping about a bit like a fish from the surprise of the impact before Beau hooks the leg with all due speed. The referee goes down to the mat and counts.

ONNNNNNNEEEEE







TWOOOOOOOOOOO





KICK OUT!

[Alicia "Atomic" Kitsune]

The crowd is going bonkers over this and Beau just has eyes that are wide open. He lifts RDK up but his hands are pushed away. RDK goes for a left but Beau just catches it and does a modified one arm DDT. RDK once again goes down, flopping like a fish. Beau looks like he is going to cover, but he then looks at the turnbuckle. He walks towards it slowly and the crowd's noise level begins to rise once more already.

Edison: What’s he doing?

Beau now climbs over the ropes and then to the turnbuckle. He salutes the crowd as he did the other time and looks at RDK with determination. Not another moment and he’s off in the air. He turns sideways and raises his arm up in a v position. He slams his elbow into the heart of The Macho Man and it looks like it's time to call it quits for the SSW Champion as Beau covers....

McNally: An elbow drop should finish the job Ed.

ONE

TWO

KICK OUT!

The crowd is jumping up and down. Many people start throwing their belongings into the ring due to their excitement. RDK is up already, he’s Machoing up!

Randy: OoOoh Yeaaaah BRUDAHS!

Beau slowly gets up and is surprised beyond belief. He knows he has to use every ounce of energy now and quickly tries to get the job done. Right Left Right Left Right Left RIGGGGHT! ...No Use! RDK just shakes his head vigorously and with closed fists, shakes his arms. Beau goes for one last punch but RDK blocks it and then turns Beau around for a back drop. THUD! The mat trembles. RDK stomps and jumps up and down about 5 feet high as Beau gets up. He then clotheslines him. Beau gets up again only to be clotheslined. Beau gets up a final time and RDK goes for a clothesline, but Beau is missed and he smirks as he tries to give the turning around Macho Man a DDT but RDK reverses into a Snap Suplex! RDK is so excited he goes to the turnbuckles and raises his fist on each of them. When he finally gets back to Beau though, he’s up. RDK does not react quickly, is adrenaline clearly toned down now. Beau grapples up with him and then with a sloppy like way of getting the job done, Beau irish whips RDK to the ropes....but not before RDK spins around upon fluke, because of the sloppiness, hitting Beau square in the tummy a la Macho Boot. RDK keeps going, he almost flies right over the ropes but with great reflex, he catches the top rope and then lands on the apron. Beau is still bending over clenching his stomach so RDK seizes the moment. He jumps up, spinning in mid air until his back is facing the ring. He lands on the top rope and then without a moment to spare he moonsaults off of the rope. The last thing Beau sees is and upside down RDK as he is caught in the sault. RDK quickly rolls Beau up with the momentum of the sault, pinning him in an upside down to right side up pinning position, hooking his legs whilst also keeping down his shoulders. The referee counts..

ONE











TWO











THREE!!!!!!


Ding Ding Ding!!!!!

Edison: It's over! It's over! The match is over!

Philip: Here is your winner, and STILL SSW Heavyweight Champion....The Macho Man RDK!

RDK takes the newly made SSW Title and holds it up in the air, prompting the fans to cheer. While he's doing this, Beau James rolls out of the ring and grabs a microphone.

Beau: Seems to me you done beat the King of Kingsport again, RDK.

RDK: You better believe it, Brudah!

Beau: But you're not the SSW champ no more, I'll tell you that.

People are puzzled, and boo him.

Beau: Surely ya'll remember the belt's only on the line on even minutes! If the match ends on an even minute, the belt changes hands. So RDK, hand over that pretty little thing to the new SSW Champion!

RDK looks at him strangely, then hands it to him.

RDK: Go ahead and take it Brudah, it's yours. I'll have a new one soon, OoOoOoOh YeAh!!!!

Beau kisses the new shiny SSW belt.

Beau: Just tell me if you ever want another shot at the King of Kingsport!

With that, he exits the ring, and the show cuts to commercial.

Segment: And then there was one... (Credit: Jake Cheng)

Stan: Perfect!

Stan backs away from the camera.

Jake: Will you stop fooling around with that tripod.

Stan moves to see Jake sulking in his chair.

Stan: Jake, what’s been up with you lately? We should be celebrating. You beat Davey last week at Seven Deadly Sins. Not only that, but after the match we ended his career.

Jake: We? I didn’t see you climb that ladder and almost shattering you’re knees.

Stan: Well I didn’t see you put Davey on the ladder.

Jake: Whatever. It doesn’t have to do with the match anyway.

Stan: Oh, I get it, you are still pissed about not getting that replica belt.

Jake gives Stan an evil glare.

Jake: No, you moron. I am surprised you don’t know what I am talking about. We are the laughing stock of the ACW locker room.

Stan: Why?

Jake: WHY! We went to a fucking amusement park! I don’t know what the fuck I was thinking.

Stan: I knew we should have gone to Dumbledore’s....

Jake: No, Stan, you didn’t know. You know nothing. This is all just a game to you. The “lets make assholes out of ourselves” game. Well, Stan, guess what? You win. Game over. I’m done.

Stan: How can you be done? There is so much shit you haven’t done yet.

Jake: So are you saying I should go and have matches with TNT, BK London and Daredevil. People I’ve never beat in a one on one match? That’s it. “Hey BK, lets have Jake vs. BK 22. I might beat you this time.” You know what, Stan, things were going just fine until I showed up.

Stan: Bullshit. New breed was falling apart. You couldn’t beat Rookie Monster. You couldn’t even beat Will Anger for that matter. Whatever, I quit!

Stan gets and leaves the locker room, slamming the door behind him.

Jake: You can’t quit, because you’re fired!

Jake sits back down.

Jake: Shit, now Hunter is going to give me hell. Damn cliché.

Jake goes to the camera and kicks it cleanly off the newly bought tripod, sending it crashing to the floor.

Static.

Segment: Your fed comes first (Credit: Angelo)

The scene opens up coming back from a commercial in the backstage area. Angelo is seen with tape around his head and some tape and an ankle brace and both ankles. Angelo stops at Gingers office which is guarded by Bruce and Tyrone.

Angelo: I need to see Ginger.

Tyrone: Hmmm no thanks. Try again later.

Angelo: Come on, I’m here for this then I’m out of here. So just move out the way.

Bruce: You heard Tyrone, try back later.

Angelo: I said let me in….NOW!

Bruce looks at Tyrone and he opens the door. As Angelo walks in Bruce gets a smile on his face and looks at Tyrone who is now smiling too.

Angelo: Hi, I’m here to talk to Chairman Gingerdude.

The phone rings.

Secretary: One moment.

The secretary picks up the phone.

Secretary: Hello? Oh yes….yes. Yes he’s in his office, I’ll buzz you in. Please hold for a moment.

She presses the hold button then gets on the little intercom to Gingers office.

Secretary: Sir, Floyd Johnson is on line 1 he wants to make sure that everything is in store for the job tonight.

Ginger: Okay great! I’ve been waiting for this call.

Secretary: Oh and Angelo Giovanni is here to talk to you.

Ginger: …………….oh.

Ginger then says “shit” under his breath and clicks off the intercom.

Secretary: Just take a seat, this will only be a moment.

Angelo looks like he doesn’t want to be there any longer than he has to be and he sits down in a chair and looks around the office. The secretary starts to hum and Angelo is getting annoyed with that and her constant loud typing. Angelo pulls out a white piece of paper and starts reading over it since there’s nothing else to do.

Ginger: Okay, send Angelo in.

Secretary: Mr. Giovanni, Ginger will see you now.

Angelo stands up and walks towards his door. He opens it and walks in. Ginger is sitting in his large, comfy chair.

Ginger: Welcome Mr. Giovanni. What brings you here?

Angelo: I just came to give you this.

Angelo tosses the piece of paper onto Ginger’s desk. He unfolds it and reads it.

Angelo: It’s a doctor’ note.

Ginger: So I see, so I see. But Angelo……a business is a business. These people came for wrestling and they will get what they paid for. So get ready Angelo, you have a match, they want to see the International Champ.

Angelo: WHAT? I’m injured. My ankles are all messed up thanks to Daredevil and my head’s all messed cause that weight that was dropped on my head!

Ginger: Hmm, let me think for a second….tough. Look, I’m only putting you up against one of the Fallout roster, Daniel Ness. Even you should be able to beat him.

Ginger looks at his watch.

Ginger: Oh and hurry! It’s up soon!

Angelo just stares at him and shakes his head. He stands up and walks out of his office.

Secretary: Have a good day Mr. Giovanni!

Angelo: Meh…

Angelo walks out and the secretary looks confused as Angelo passes the bodyguards who are smiling and trying to keep their laughter in.

Scene fades to black.

Match 2: Scarlett vs. Daredevil (Credit: Latino)

The fans are very much interested in the next matchup; after her sensational debut, everyone wants to see more of the enigmatic Scarlett. Can she handle the Welsh Dragon?

Phillip: Our next match is scheduled for one fall! Introducing first from Candiff, Wales…..Daredevil!

Live and Let Die starts playing as Daredevil comes out through the curtains. The fans give him a welcoming boo but he pays them no mind as he raises his arms up to the crowds. He walks down with a smirk on his face looking side to side towards all the front row fans. As he nears the ring he jumps on the apron and then steps between the ropes, entering the ring. Daredevil climbs the turnbuckles and yells at any nearby fans close enough to hear his voice. They yell back of course but all that brings is another smile to his face.

Phillip: And his opponent from Agra, India….Scarlet!

The tron displays Scarlet surrounded by fighters dressed all in black. She destroys them all with ease, flipping them over her shoulders and performing fancy Aikido reversals. As her theme blasts throughout the arena, Scarlet appears on the ramp, much to the pleasure of the male population of the audience. She walks slowly down to the ring, her face impassive, ignoring the fans waving and screaming her name, but not taunting or insulting them. Scarlet daintily climbs the stairs and enters the ring in a ladylike manner, bending low between the bottom ropes. She then leans against the turnbuckle in the opposite corner and waits for her opponent to show, looking calm and relaxed.

The Bell Rings.

Daredevil starts out the match as he rushes Scarlet with a forearm to the back of the head. He immediately starts kicking her in the stomach repeatedly. Each forceful kick knocks her over on her side and then her back, repeating over and over again. Daredevil towers over Scarlet as he taunts and yells at her. The fans are already starting to cheer her name “Scarlet! Scarlet! Scarlet!” She works to get back up but Daredevil smacks her back down with an elbow smash to the face. He then tries to lock on a armbar but Scarlet manevuers out of the hold and gives him a swift Chin Bash. Daredevil falls back a few steps holding his jaw in pain, much to the delight from the crowd. He turns around and leans against the ropes and Scarlet gives him a quick leg sweep from behind. Daredevil falls on his back with a THUD and the fans cheer again.

Scarlet now looks to the fans and plays off to them as they keep cheering her name louder and louder. She climbs the turnbuckle and poses for the crowd getting a pop once again. Daredevil is now starting to regain his composure and staggers to his feet. He stalks Scarlet from behind and reaches up grabbing her hair. Now with a violent pull Scarlet is yanked from the second turnbuckle. She lands on her feet just barely and Daredevil doesn’t hesitate to give her another elbow smash to the face. Scarlet leans back but returns fully with an elbow of her own. The two keep going back and forth. Elbow smash after Elbow Smash. After Scarlet’s third one Daredevil is now fed up and throws one more this time straight into the eye socket of Scarlet. She falls back holding her eye. The ref runs over trying to check on her status. The fans are now booing more and more at what was obviously intentional. He starts circling Scarlet taunting her once again and then yelling at the fans. The referee pushes Daredevil away as he tries to do his job. Daredevil walks away with a smile on his and he suddenly he feels a hand tapping his shoulder. He turns around and CRACK! Daredevil’s body goes limp as he falls down. The camera zooms out and shows Yoko Satoshi with a grin of her own. In her hand is the trustworthy mallet. She quickly slips out of the ring and leaves through the crowd before getting noticed. The referee looks to the side and sees Daredevil unconscioius. He starts looking franticly as he has no idea what the hell just happened. Clearly, Ginger brought this referee over from WWE. Scarlet starts moving around, still holding her eye in pain. She stands up Daredevil but he slumps down a bit still taking effects from his attack. Scarlet runs to the ropes and on her return gives him the Chaos Judgement. She quickly hooks his leg and the referee doesn’t hesitate as he counts One…Two….Three!

Phillip: Here is your winner…Scarlet!

Scarlet’s music hits the speakers once again as the referee raises her arm. The fans seem more behind her than when the match first started as they are cheering her more and more. She rolls out of the ring still feeling the effects in her eye. Back in the ring, Daredevil rolls over barely conscious of what just happened. He seems to be in the middle of a splitting headache and a bruised jaw, not to mention ego. He rolls out of the ring and falls against the barrier. The fans all around are booing loudly. It’s obvious they are happy over what just happened. He leaves the arena battered and bruised as the fans still get their enjoyment.

Segment: Cash flow questions (Credit: BK)

The scene opens and fades into Gingerdude's office. One of the most lavish areas in all of ACW, fit for a king some may say, or even a Chairman. As he usually is, Gingerdude is at his desk doing some form of paperwork. Beads of sweat begin to trail down his head and he grabs one of his sequined handkercheifs and begins wiping his head. The tosses the handkerchief aside into the wastebasket, just because he has enough money to do that, and continues to work. A few knocks at his door takes his attention off his work. Before he can say the words "Come in", the person takes it upon himself to enter the room and its none other than BK London. BK continues to walk around with the Light Heavyweight Title as he would do with any other belt and he sits down in the seat across from Ginger's. Ginger is now able to take his mind off his work and talk business.

Ginger: Good evening BK.

BK: Good evening Chairman Gingerdude. Is there some particular reason why you have called me into your office?

Ginger: There is always a reason BK. You see after watching your performance at Seven Deadly Sins I will have to say that, you actually should be the one going into Heatwave as the No.1 Contender.

BK: Well at least someone agrees with me...

Ginger: ...but that’s not the case now isn't it. So because now you have no plans at the moment, I am asking for a favor from you..

BK: A favor eh? Go on.

Ginger: You see Angelo barged into my office earlier and really got under my skin. Talking about me not being fair...now as the Chairman I am the have to be the most fair man in ACW, while yet I have to discipline those who don't think very highly of me.
BK: Get to the point Ginger…

Ginger: The point? The point is I want you to take out Angelo Giovanni...I want you to take him out for good and show him that you do not cross the boss. Now being the "Hardcore Legend" you are I am sure you can do this with ease..

Ginger picks up his well decorated teapot and begins to pour just a spot of tea into his tea cup before taking a sip. He then looks at BK and picks up the teapot..

Ginger: Would you care for a spot of tea?

BK: No thanks. But I would like to know what's in it for me...I mean come on. Do you actually expect me to take him out and not ask for anything in return?

Ginger: Of course not. I know you BK, I've known you and watched you grow for the past year. Although one thing I can't promise you is a shot at the ACW Championships..

BK: ......

BK rises up from his seat and begins to approach the door, Ginger rises up from his seat and he tries desperately to call BK back. Then he says something that hits home.

Ginger: What about your wife BK?

BK is stopped dead in his tracks and he drops the Light Heavyweight belt that was once at his side. He begins to make a fist with his left hand and the camera now gets a shot up close at BK with Ginger in the background deviously smiling.

Ginger: I would expect the medical bills to be off the charts BK. Come back...I don't have an ACW title shot but I have something just as good..

BK turns around and approaches his desk and sits back down in his seat. Ginger reaches under his desk and he pulls up a giant sack with a dollar sign on it.

Ginger: $500, 000.

BK's eyes widen and he begins to look at the sack of money. And then a puzzled looks comes over his face.

BK: A sack? What did you do rob a bank?

Ginger: Uh...we'll get the suitcase shortly.

BK reaches for the sack of money and Ginger pulls it back before slapping BK's wrists.

Ginger: Uh-uh. Until I see a bloody unconscious Angelo, no money...So do we have a deal?

Thought go running frantically through the mind of BK. Should he make a deal with the proverbial devil? With this decision he would be able to pay of his wife's hospital bills. On the other hand he could continue his journey for the World Title, but he knows he will never realize his dream or get his shot as long as the evil tyrant that is Yoko Satoshi holds the belt. So it’s really a lost cause. BK snaps out of the trance and he sees Ginger's extended arm, BK extends his arm and shakes Ginger's hand therefore sealing the deal. Ginger evilly smiles as the deal is set.

Segment: "How Jinxy came to Be." (Credit: Jinxy)

The screen fades to a hospital room. Demmy is laying in the bed with a big thick bandage covering a cut on her forehead. She appears to be asleep. All of the sudden the door bursts open causing her to wake up and sit up. Her best friend Brandon comes charging into the room and hugs her.

Brandon:"Jesus Christ I rushed here as soon as the show went off. I wanted to see the end. Are you ok? How's your head?"

Demmy looks at Brandon with confused expression on her face.

Demmy:"Who are you?"

Brandon:"It's me, your best friend. Brandon?"

Demmy shakes her head and her expression changes from confusion to fear.

Demmy:"What are you doing here?"

Brandon hangs his head. She doesn't remember who he is.

Brandon:"Demmy, what is today?"

Demmy:"August 14th. And why are you calling me Demmy? My name is Jinxy."

Brandon:"What?"

Demmy:"That's my name. It's always been my name. Well since I can remember. Which granted isn't that long but it's the only thing I can remember."

Brandon:"Do you remember anything else?"

Demmy:"I remember I'm a professional wrestler, and that I got hurt in a match. Oh yea, and my dad's a wrestler too. A damn good one at that what with him being so old. Hehe."

Brandon:"Well that’s a start."

She doesn't remember anything but her job and how she got this way. She doesn't remember that she was once a Dead Girl. Time to say goodbye to Demmy.....and hello....to Jinxy.

Segment: Just helping…. (Credit: Yoko)

Scarlet returns backstage in search of Yoko, to ask her about her actions. Lucky for her, Yoko was waiting right behind the curtain for her.

Scarlet: Hey, what was up with that?

Yoko: Just helping you out.

Scarlet: You didn't think I could win on my own?

Yoko: Against Daredevil? No. He gave me a hard time. It was nothing against him though, I just wanted you to win. I hope it gives you the chance to make it big, that was an important win.

Scarlet: Why did you want me to win?

Yoko blushes.

Yoko: Because...you're nice. I like your style, and I'm sure I'd like you as a person if I got to know you.

Scarlet: Thanks. I like you too from what I've seen of you, we need another match sometime. Good job on saving the company, by the way.

Yoko: Yeah...I'm proud of that.

There's a bit of an awkward silence between them.

Yoko: Tell me, do you want to go somewhere after the show?

Scarlet: Um...Sure.

Yoko reaches out to her and gives her a quick hug before she can react. Scarlet blushes herself, and doesn't say anything for a moment.

Scarlet: What are you doing?

Yoko lets go and backs away.

Yoko: I'm sorry, I just wanted to hug you. I won't do it again.

Scarlet: You didn't have to stop, it was nice...It was comforting.

Yoko smiles at her.

Yoko: I'll see you later, then.

Scarlet: I'll be waiting!

Yoko turns and walks down the hallway, leaving Scarlet's view as she goes around a corner.

Scarlet: That was odd...I usually don't feel bubbly when people hug me.

She shrugs, and decides to go back to her locker room.

Match 3: Angelo Giovanni vs. Daniel Ness (Credit: Angelo)

Daniel Ness vs. Angelo Giovanni (Credit: Angelo)

The camera zooms through the crowd as they are chit-chatting among themselves and the camera slowly makes its way down to our two color commentators.

McNally: Folks…...right now we have a match which was just made by Ginger not that long ago.

Edison: Yeah, Angelo is now scheduled to take on Daniel Ness right here tonight!

McNally: But like Angelo said earlier, he IS injured. The only reason he was here tonight was to give Ginger his doctors note saying to stay away from wrestling for a couple of shows. But Ginger has forced Angelo to come out here tonight and wrestle. Now we can only watch and see what will happen with Angelo’s bad ankles and messed up head.

Edison: Yeah from that DAAANNNGEERRROOUUUS Richard Prokas tackle, and Wyvern dropping that heavy weight on top of Angelo’s head at Seven Deadly Sins.

McNally: Now we go to ring announcer Philip Jones….

Philip: Ladies and Gentlemen, the following contest is scheduled for one fall. First, from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Daniel Ness!!!

“Survival of the Sickest” by Saliva hits the P.A. and the crowd gives Ness some heat as he makes his way out to the stage. He stops and looks out into the crowd then makes his way down the ramp. Ness looks confident and ready for this match as he slides into the ring and does some stretching out.

Philip: And his opponent, weighing in at 239 pounds! He is the A-C-W International Champion of the world………ANGELO GIOVANNI!!!

The arena explodes as “Suffocate” hits. Fans stand and cheer for Angelo as he slowly makes his way out with the International Title around his waist, some athletic tape around his head and some stuff around his ankles. He slowly makes his way down the ramp and one man yells out to Angelo “You totally BUUUURNED Skurai!”

McNally: Angelo doesn’t look 100% fit for this match but it looks like he’ll give it his best.

Angelo throws the title into the ring then slowly rolls into the ring. He takes the title and gives it to the ref.

Edison: And here we go as the bell sounds!

The bell rings and Ness tries to use the speed advantage against Angelo. He quickly moves around the ring and Angelo has no plan to chase after him. Ness swiftly runs in and dropkicks the leg of Angelo. Angelo drops to the mat and holds his leg. Ness pops right back up and takes advantage of the fallen Angelo. He stomps on his back. He then gets down behind Angelo and hits a knee to the back. Ness points to the crowd then down to Angelo. He quickly slaps on the Camel Clutch. The ref checks on Angelo who is holding in there. He won’t tap out and Ness wants to end this. There is then some movement in Angelo as he starts to stand up. He is using his legs and then fully pushes himself up with Ness on his back. Angelo then runs backwards and rams Ness into the turnbuckle. Ness drops to the mat as Angelo takes some steps forward and gets ready. Ness pulls himself up with the ropes and is now in the corner. Ness runs forward and Angelo lifts his right leg up and knees him in the gut. He repeats the same move then grabs his tights and his head, swings him around then throws him in between the middle and top turnbuckle right into the steel post.

Edison: Angelo is in no mood for playing games here tonight!

Ness tries to pull himself out but all that happens is that he loses his balance and falls out the side onto the apron, the hitting the outside mat hard. The ref begins his count. 1……….2……………3…………4….Ness is already at his feet and he is walking around the ring then slides in at 6. Ness runs and Angelo goes for a clothesline but Ness ducks and spins around right behind Angelo. He sets him up into a full nelson position then lifts him up then slams him down into a sit out facebuster. He flips Angelo over and pins. 1…..2………kickout. Ness pins again 1……….2……kickout, he does it again trying to tire Angelo out 1……………2…………….kickout again by Angelo. Ness complains of a long count but then walks over to the turnbuckle as Angelo is getting up. He goes to the top as Angelo is finally to his feet. He turns around and Ness dives into a crossbody. It connects and they go down, and the ref begins 1…….. No, Angelo rolls into a pin of his own. 1….2…then Angelo pulls him up. He tosses him up and catches him onto his shoulders then goes and hits the Steam Roller. Angelo and Ness get up at about the same time. Angelo whips Ness across the ropes, and Ness ducks the clothesline then slides underneath the legs of Angelo. He runs up and hits a waistlock takedown. From there he spins around and pulls up the leg of Angelo and successfully locks in the Single Leg crab. The ref asks Angelo and he simply gets a no for a response.

Angelo begins to pull himself across the mat. He goes about ¾ of the ring and finally reaches the bottom rope. Ness doesn’t realize he actually did when the ref is telling him to break it, he drops the hold and goes out of control thinking he just beat the International Champion. He’s so caught up in it; he doesn’t realize Angelo is up. Angelo grabs him by the hair and whips him around and throws him over the top rope, landing on the ground with a large thud. Angelo slides out of the ring and picks Ness up. From the refs angle he doesn’t see what happens next. Ness swings his leg back right into the family jewels of Angelo. He drops to the ground on his knees holding down low as the ref is telling them to get back in. Ness walks over to the announcer’s tables then climbs up top.

Edison: HEY!!!!! This is our table! Go mess up those Spanish announcers table!

Ness runs across it then takes the foot jump onto the security wall. He runs all across then jumps and nails a diving clothesline on Angelo. Ness pulls himself up and slides into the ring then out breaking the count. Ness thinks he has this one. He lifts Angelo up and hooks the arms. He then nails a perfectly executed double underhook sit out powerbomb on Angelo on the outside. Ness hits some mounted punches then throws him into the ring. Ness takes his take to “pose for the cameras” as he walks up the ring steps then steps in between the top and middle rope. Ness looks at Angelo and shakes his head. He goes down and locks in the Ness-asary. Ness thinks he has it in the bag as he just waits for Angelo to pass out or tap. But just then Angelo’s leg is seen moving. He is stretching as far he can go and he gets it under the bottom rope. The ref doesn’t see this at first and he raises Angelo’s hand. He drops it.

1

He raises it again and drops it.

2

He raises it up for the last time….and drops it.

3

The bell rings and Ness goes crazy. He can’t believe it but right before Philip is about to make his announcement the ref looks over and sees the foot of Angelo under the bottom rope. He runs to the outside and says that the hold was broken and therefore the match continue. Ness is confused and angry at the same time and it’s like there’s nothing he can do to fully take him out of the match. He goes out of the ring and grabs a chair. He folds it up and slides into the ring. He just waits and the ref is trying to get it away from him Angelo is slowly, and I mean slowly pulling himself up with the ropes. Ness pushes the ref out of the way then swings and nails Angelo right on the top of the head. He drops down to a knee and Ness is just watching and so is the ref from the ground. Angelo’s hand starts to shake as he pulls himself up. The look in Angelo’s eyes is scary. It looks like fire and brimstone burn upon his eyes. Ness takes another swing and nails Angelo in the head. He stumbles back, but then back to a vertical base. He is starting to shake more, and more. As Ness takes the chair back about to swing it again Angelo’s arm darts out across Ness’ throat. He drops the chair and the ref signals for the bell to ring.

The Bell rings.

Philip: Here is your winner via disqualification……..Angelo Giovanni!

[Alicia "Atomic" Kitsune]

Angelo still has a good grip on his throat as he lifts him up into the air and then chokeslams him over the top rope. Angelo climbs out of the ring and goes to a corner. He smiles as he finds what he’s looking for. He pulls the protective covering off to reveal hard, solid, concrete. The ref is very worried and rushes out there. Angelo grabs the ref and throws him into Philip. He picks up Ness and sets him up like a tombstone.

Edison: Oh no!

McNally: This is sick Angelo! Don’t!

He does a cut throat taunt then drops him into a sit out tombstone right onto the concrete. Angelo gets up and smiles. He picks up Ness and throws him into the ring. Angelo slides in and picks Ness up. He makes sure he stands still then he nails him in the face with a huge left hook from his boxing days. Ness is now bleeding from the nose and is laid out. Angelo lifts Ness up again then hoists him onto his shoulders. He nails an Italian Decimator and the ring shakes. Just as he is about to pick him up again two men are seen running out from the back. Angelo notices this and prepares for it. As the camera gets a better look, it is revealed to be Bruce and Tyrone, Gingers two bodyguards.

McNally: What are those two doing here?

Bruce slides in first and right when he pops up, he gets three right jabs right into the face then pulls his left arm back and nails him with a left. As Tyrone slides in from the side, he gets an elbow to the face. Angelo spins around into an uppercut. As Bruce is on the ground holding his head, Angelo picks Tyrone up and gets him up into an Air raid crash position. He slowly backs up into the turnbuckles then climbs up onto the middle rope. Angelo shakes his head and carefully moves up to the top. He jumps and nails the Super Air Raid crash. Tyrone is out of it now and Angelo makes his way to Bruce. He lifts him up onto his shoulders. He spins around then hits the I.C.D. Angelo moves back to Tyrone then throws him over the top rope back to the stage. Angelo then locks in the Venomous Vice onto Bruce who begins to scream in pain. Angelo has had the hold on for a while and Tyrone is almost totally up. Angelo notices then breaks the hold. He lifts Bruce up into a military press position then throws him over the top onto Tyrone. Angelo picks up Ness and Ness can barely stand but he goes down once he gets whacked! Just then some boos are heard throughout the arena and Angelo thinks it’s for him. But what he doesn’t know is that BK is running down with a steel chair in hand. He jumps over the bodyguards and slides in. He takes the chair and chopblocks Angelo with it, but in the ankle. Angelo goes down and he is holding his ankle. Just then BK lifts it up and nails Angelo right into the face with the chair. He swings and hits his ankle again, and again. BK then throws the chair and asks for a mic. The bodyguards are seen going to the back and holding their heads.

BK: Okay Ginger. I did the job. Now I want my damn $500,000 dollars! I delivered now it’s your turn!

Just then on the titantron, Ginger is seen.

Ginger: London, you don’t get paid yet…..finish the job first!

BK looks over at Angelo then at Ginger. He drops the mid and shakes his head.

Ginger is seen smiling and then BK turns around and walks over to Angelo. He bends over to grab him by the hair by Angelo chokes BK. Angelo sits up then up to a vertical base. He punches BK in the face about 4 times until BK kicks him in the ankle. Angelo holds it and BK kicks him in the gut. He puts Angelo’s arm over his shoulder looking for the Mockbottom but then Angelo elbows him in the head then lifts him up onto one shoulder. He walks back then throws up and down onto the top rope with the stun gun. Angelo then runs across the ring, bounces off the ropes, and BK turns around right at the worst time for him as he gets the Boot of Italy right over the top rope. Ginger looks angry and so does BK who is pulling himself up and walking up the stage backwards holding his forehead. Just then Angelo looks down at Ness who is on all fours trying to crawl away. He gets an evil, sadistic smile at BK then takes some steps behind Ness. He then runs up, jumps and double stomps his head down hard onto the mat.

Edison: OH MY GOD! DAAAAANNNNNNNGEEERRROOUUS!!!

McNally: That right there was kinda like a curbstomp but with much more force!

Many EMTS run to ringside but don’t come in as Angelo is still in there staring at them all. The camera moves to Ness and a pool of blood is slowly coming out from underneath him. Angelo then steps out of the ring and EMTs all slide in. Angelo walks over and grabs his belt and begins to walk off with an angry look on his face.

Scene fades to black.
