Segment: Rose’s paranoia (Credit: Rose)
A camera is moving down a barren hallway at a brisk speed. A few members of the backstage team walk by, but soon the hallway is empty, save for the camera and lone camera man. Suddenly a loud snap is heard and the camera hits the ground and the cameraman is heard screaming as if his eyes were being eaten out by rats. Suddenly all the screaming stops, the camera is laying on the ground, and it records the following events in a sideways shot. Alexandra "The White Rose" Kaesar appears lying on the ground staring deeply into the camera, her blood stained face etched in with sane……..no, just the effects of a paranoia filled mind. It is apparent that she may be out of her mind after the incorrectly perceived betrayal of Yoko Satoshi. She speaks slowly and deliberately with only one emotion. Hate.
Rose: It all ends. It all ends tonight, by my hand. I was a fool and I am a fool to have trusted that ungrateful girl. It all ends tonight with my blessing. I once allied myself with a waste of skin who now wants to do nothing more than entertain all the foolish cattle in this arena and what did I get in return for my friendship? It all ends tonight by the fire of my hate. A useless golem actually thinks it can defeat me? His mortality will be shone and I will show him how pathetic he is. It all ends tonight by the will of its creator. My little bitch challenges me yet again? I defeated him and his family once before, but he challenges me yet again? It all ends tonight, mark my words. A dark horse dares to challenge my reign, he dares to try and stop my purge? I will grind him to dust. It all ends tonight, damn it all to Hell it all ends tonight.
Rose begins to sob a bit and her salty tears mix with her crimson plasma as she continues. She holds her title belt to the camera and it no longer shines thanks to her bloodstained hand prints that engulf it.
Rose: This damn title means nothing and it has never meant anything. I care nothing for it……….it is a curse. No…..It is just a joke. The entire world is crumbling around me. I will cleanse this crumbling world of you all. I will continue to purge this world of all the wastes of skin until Lord Ridley returns.
Rose slings the title as hard as she can to the side and then she is resumes her calm demeanor, but it does not last as she begins to yell even louder….
Rose: All things will end. Every embrace must be broken and the joy in life never lasts. All love ends in pain. Life begins solely to end. What a grand and elaborate joke. My world is gone, my entire world has left me. Tonight I will render the world around me to ashes. I can no longer bear this pitiful existence all alone. Tonight the world will feel my anguish and taste my despair. It………..All…….Ends………Tonight.
Rose jumps up to her feet and stomps the camera until it no longer works.
End Scene.

Segment: A question of Pride
The camera shot is of a locker room; the fans cheer as Latino is shown, perfecting his presentation and warming up for his title defense. The International title belt is on the table before him, and he runs a hand over the cool metal.
Latino: Are you sure you’re ok with this, chula?
The camera pulls back, and Alicia is shown reclining in one of the chairs in the room.
AK: Sure. You know I’d go up against that pillock TNT any day of the week, but I also know that you’re more than capable of smacking the smug grin off his face without any outside help. And we’re not going to give him any reason to complain about this match – he’s going to get what he deserves, and he won’t be able to talk his way out of it this time.
Latino: So you’ll watch the match back here?
AK: Yeah.
She walks over to Latino, and he puts an arm around her shoulder.
AK: TNT is a moron, but he’s also deeply talented. So….be careful, won’t you?
Latino: You know I will.
He looks at the shining belt again.
Latino: This match isn’t just about me, or about this title. TNT has disrespected everyone in this fed with his comments…..well I’m not going to take it. I’m going to make him regret every single word…..
Latino picks up the belt and slings it over his shoulder. He walks to the door and opens it, and the couple smile at one another one last time before he leaves their locker room and heads toward the ring.
Fade out.

Match 6: Latino v TNT – ACW International Title Match – Steel Chair Symphony (Credit: White Rose)
With a huge amount of chairs positioned on the outside, this match is a brawling fan’s wet dream. The fans have entered this arena to see a massacre, but will they get what they want? And who will be the recipient? The fans ponder these questions as Philip enters the ring.
Philip: Ladies and Gentleman, this match is scheduled for one fall and it is a no disqualification, no count-out match for the ACW International Title.
The fans let out a rousing pop.
Philip: Introducing first the challenger, from Chicago, Illinois, please welcome T-N-T!
"Away" hits and TNT comes out and receives the unadulterated hate of the sold out ACW Arena. He walks cockily down the aisle, the very picture of confidence and certainty. He will win the title tonight and as he takes his corner he knows it beyond a shadow of a doubt.
Philip: And next, from New York, New York, please welcome YOUR ACW International Champion, Latino!
"Lowrider" hits and Latino comes out and receives the unconditional love of the sold out ACW Arena, multiplied due to his status as a local made good. He walks leisurely down the aisle, the very picture of happiness and the embodiment of the care free attitude. He will retain his title tonight and as he takes his corner he knows it beyond a shadow of a doubt….
Two very different people, strangely similar.
Who is right?
Who is just a dreamer?
It Begins.
Bell Rings
Latino and TNT circle each other in the middle of the ring, but the match soon degenerates into a vicious brawl, with Latino faring the better of the two. Latino fires his piston - like right hands into TNT in quick succession before whipping TNT into the ropes and hitting him with a flying drop kick to the delight of the crowd. Latino goes for the pin and the Referee counts 1……, but TNT kicks out rather easily and both men scramble to their feet. TNT charges towards Latino, but he is met by an arm drag. Latino keeps his grip and locks in an arm bar for a few seconds before TNT grabs the ropes. TNT latches onto the ropes and pulls himself to his feet just in time to receive a clothesline that takes them both over the top rope and to the outside where they land next to two steel chairs. Both men get to their feet at roughly the same time and as Latino charges TNT, TNT lifts Latino up and gives him a Gorilla Press onto the steel chair. The crowd chastises TNT and boos him loudly as Latino yells in pain. TNT "helps" Latino to his feet and gives him brutally clubbing blows to his back tanning it a pinkish-red color. At the conclusion of these brutal clubs, TNT gives Latino a swinging neck breaker that effectively takes him down. TNT then looks towards the chair lying closest to him and then he deliberately folds it up. TNT with chair in hand climbs the apron and moves to the turnbuckle farthest from Latino, but still on the same side. On the floor Latino begins to stir and in doing so he kicks a chair over into the folded position. TNT runs forward on the side of the apron and jumps off in what can only be described as a flying steel chair elbow drop, but as he flies the ever alert Latino picks up the previously knocked over chair and hits the oncoming chair in midair before rolling out of the way.

TNT holds his right elbow in pain and is soon met by a chair shot to the right shoulder and then that is followed up by yet another shot. Latino throws the chair to the side and gives a few of the fans high five before beginning to remove the protective mat. When he is finished he turns to receive a running knee from TNT that flips Latino over causing him to land on the cold hard concrete floor. A "You Suck!" chant starts up for TNT as he drops calculated and powerful knees on Latino. TNT picks Latino up to his feet and slides him into the ring before following it up by throwing three chairs into the ring. TNT slides into the ring and picks up the prone Latino with malicious intent. TNT hits Latino with a snap suplex on the nearest steel chair and then moves right into the pin, The Referee counts 1…….2….., but Latino kicks out and the crowd goes bananas. TNT goes from the pin position to giving boots to Latino in the span of a few seconds, but the adrenaline powered Latino shrugs them all off and returns with some stiff right hands. The two exchange steady blows with neither man ever taking control, but out of no here Latino hits a devastating DDT on TNT. Latino makes the cover slowly and the Referee counts 1…..2….,but TNT kicks out to the resounding boos from the hostile crowd. Both men are almost spent and they crawl towards separate chairs in an attempt to gain the upper hand. Both men grab their respective chairs turn and crack each other’s skull at exactly the same time busting themselves open. Both men are down and bleeding and they are both knocked out. They do not begin to stir for almost a minute and the crowd, while worried, is getting restless.
TNT manages to begin stirring to his feet first and he makes it all the way up to his feet even before Latino begins to move. TNT then realizes his opportunity and goes for the pin, the Referee counts 1……..2……, but Latino kicks out. TNT is extremely frustrated now and picks Latino up to his feet and slings him over the top rope to the outside. A "TNT SUCKS" chant resumes and TNT relishes in the moment. TNT waits for Latino to get to his feet and as Latino takes wild swings at TNT, he is nearly decapitated by a vicious clothesline. TNT gets to his feet quickly and in an impressive feat of strength picks up the steel steps nearest him. TNT charges toward Latino, who is staggering to his feet…………chair in hand and with a swift shot he hits the steel steps, causing TNT to fall backwards. Latino takes this time to get back into the ring and wipe his own blood from his eyes, but after the brief rest he heads back outside the ring and leads TNT to where he removed the protective mat earlier. Latino puts TNT in the piledriver position and soon to the delight of the fans hits TNT with a vicious heart stopping variation of the Razor’s Edge. Latino then picks up a nearby steel chair and hits the prone body of TNT over and over a dozen times. Latino tries to maneuver TNT into the ring, but due to the fatigue brought on by the match, it is quite a chore. When TNT is finally forced into the ring, Latino make the pin, The Referee counts 1…..2……, but somehow to the fury of the crowd, TNT kicks out. Latino picks TNT up and puts him in the piledriver position again, but TNT grabs a chair that is within arms reach, gets down to his knee, turns the chair sideways, and administers a despicably cheap low blow. And to add injury to insult TNT hits the weakened Latino on the back taking him to the mat. TNT drops the Chair and makes the pin, the Referee counts 1…….2……., but Latino puts his foot on the lower rope.
TNT turns his back to Latino to get the steel chair a few feet away, he turns in time to duck aside a crescent kick by Latino and then he winds back and hits Latino’s knee point blank with the chair. TNT follows it up with yet another chairshot to the back for good measure. He then moves the defenseless Latino to the center of the ring before beginning to scale the turnbuckle. He jumps off the top turnbuckle and in an attempt to mock Latino tries for a frogsplash, but Latino rolls out of the way in the nick of time. Latino staggers to his feet and picks up the nearest chair right before hitting TNT with it twice. He drops the title on top of TNT and scales the top rope himself and the crowd goes wild with anticipation. Latino jumps off the turnbuckle with a picture perfect frogsplash of his own. Latino manages to not bounce off and he keeps on top of the chair for the pin, the Referee counts 1…………2………..3. The Referee calls for the bell as he raises Latino’s hand.
Philip: Here is your winner by Pinfall and STILL International Champion, Latino!
Latino wipes the blood from his face and celebrates for…..well….no time at all. He heads backstage to search for AK, in hopes that she has a "special" party planned for him. TNT gets to his feet furious at his loss and he is believes that this is far, far from over. He walks to the back with ideas of eventual revenge consuming his thoughts.

Segment: Fury’s Ambush
The camera shot is of a room almost in total darkness, except for a couple of candles. There is a hint of movement over at one side of the room, and the faint light seems to bounce off of something shiny. Then a voice is heard…..its normal Scottish brogue overlaid by tones of pure darkness.
Fury: Heh…..I thought that dancing fool would never leave. But now, everything is perfect. I have only this small task to complete, and then I can turn to this night’s real purpose – the fruition of my grand plan to seize control of ACW…..
Fury is cut short by the sound of footsteps in the hall. The camera picks up just a very faint outline as he moves right next to the door.
Kross has barely opened it and reached for the light switch when Fury strikes; he grabs his extended arm and drags him inside. The door slams, and the blast of air extinguishes the candles. There’s the sound of struggle, and then….
Fury: AAAAGHH! FUCK!
Fury throws open the door and staggers out; his gauntlets are smoking a little. The camera follows him as he dodges around a corner, away from the scene of the crime.
Fury: Fuck it…… I could not penetrate his mind, his faith must give him some protection against such things.
Fury presses himself to the wall; more footsteps are approaching.
Fury: Ah well, it is not important. The priest will still be in no condition to further hinder me or my servant tonight, and that is all I need in order to execute my plan.
Fury smiles evilly and slips away into the darkened corridor. The camera swings back just in time to see Bob reach the door to the room.
Bob: Hey, Kross, I just wanted to thank you, your blessing did work, sort of…..man, what’s up with your lights in here?
The lights come on; the shot is still of the door from some way down the corridor.
Bob: What the…….oh, SHIT………SECURITY!!
Bob rockets out of the room, rushing to get help.
Fade out.

Match 6: Rose vs. BK London vs. Surion vs. Yoko vs. RDK vs. BladeShadow – ACW World Title Match – HIAC Evolved
The fans have enjoyed an eventful evening of top quality action, but as the centre of the arena is flooded with stage crew and technicians, the atmosphere is changing. There is a definite feeling in the air that a truly classic match is about to unfold, one of those rare events that those lucky enough to witness it in person will be boasting of and remembering for many, many years to come…….
The crew has been expertly drilled, and everyone knows their place as they swing into action. The protective mats on the floor are raised to reveal fixings previously concealed; as one set of personnel prepares these, a second team unbolts the main ring from the ground and then both groups unite to carefully shift the ring to the right. Once it’s been positioned, it’s quickly secured again into place, and a crew member with a two – way radio gives the ok for stage 2.
From the roofspace above, something begins to descend, and the crowd is impressed to see a second, fully constructed ring being dropped slowly to the floor. It is lowered to sit next to the original ring, so that there is about 6 feet between the two, and then the crews also bolt this firmly into its moorings.
Finally, most of the staff leave the ring area, leaving just a few to supervise the huge, custom built Cell as it is brought down gently, accompanied by a wave of camera flashes. As it reaches ground level, the crowd and the cameras can see that as well as being much wider than normal it is also a few feet taller; the reason for this is obvious. In each corner there are small triangular platforms, with just enough clearance above them for one or two people to stand up straight. The fans are already visualizing the sort of things these might be used for, and as the head of the crew confirms that all is prepared Philip steps through the door of the cell and climbs up into the ring on the right hand side of the camera shot.
Philip: Ladies and Gentlemen, we have reached tonight’s main event – the six way contest for the ACW World Title!
The crowd whoops and cheers, and Philip pauses to let them finish before continuing.
Philip: This is a first for ACW….it is not only the biggest title match ever held, but it is the first to feature two rings. The competitors will need all their wits and skill if they wish to be victorious, for all six will compete together, and the only stipulation is that the first fall, anywhere, wins it – no count outs, no disqualification, and the champion does not have to be involved in the pinfall or submission to lose their title.
There’s another rise in the noise level as the fans consider how the participants will cope with trying to watch two rings and several battles at once; but Philip quickly brings them back as he starts the introductions.
Philip: So, without further ado……the first challenger………the Hand of Albion, Surion!
”Fuel” hits, and the crowd makes an enormous sound as Surion walks out, looking around him at the great swathes of fans in the famous venue. He greets several of them as he walks to the cell, and he only pauses briefly to look upward at the structure before stepping through the door to enter. He heads over to the ring where Philip is standing and slides in, carefully checking the distances from ring to ring and from the rings to the cell walls.
Philip: Second, from Okinawa, Japan………the Flower of Carnage, Yoko Satoshi!
Yoko’s theme music fills the arena, and the crowd boos as Yoko makes her entrance. She pays little attention to them; clearly there is much running through her head, and she continues to look very distant as she walks into the cell and comes to join Surion and Philip in the ring.
Philip: Next, from Brooklyn, New York…..BK London!
”Breathe” hits, and the fans cheer the hometown hero as he returns to the arena, now fully prepared for action. He takes a little while reaching the cell, and he tests the wall of the cell with a kick before entering; he glances at both Yoko and Surion, and opts to take up position in the second ring, where he continues to walk around hyping up the crowd until “Dragula” hits, and the fans start booing furiously.
Philip: The fourth challenger……….from Upstate New York, Bladeshadow!
Blade’s eyes are bright enough to be visible even in the darkness of his entrance; he stalks to the cage, and smiles with evil intent at the three people already there. He reaches the door, but two referees block his path; they demand that he remove the sword which is strapped to his back. Blade smiles at them and draws the sword with frightening speed; the refs look very nervous, but as Blade is considering what to do a voice rings out from inside the cell……..
Surion: BLADE! Don’t tell me you’re so useless that you need a damn great knife to face us?
The crowd cheers Surion’s challenge; Blade glares, but then slowly puts down the blade on the floor, where it pulses a little with light. He enters the cell and looks at both rings; after a moment or two he chooses to face BK, who maintains his distance but does not take his eyes from those of his opponent. Philip is secretly very glad of this, as being with 100 feet of Blade in his current condition makes him very nervous indeed.
Philip: The fifth and last challenger…..from Yellowknife, Canada, the Macho Man RDK!
”Macho Man” hits, and the fans almost drown the music out with their yells and cheers as RDK storms out, well and truly ready for the greatest match of his illustrious career so far. The fans crowd at the barriers, desperate to get close, and RDK can only slap hands with a small number of those trying to reach him. RDK approaches the cell and steps through the door; he also has a choice of where to start, and for him the choice is simple – he goes to the ring containing Surion and Yoko, and jumps over the ropes. He and Surion face one another, and then they shake hands. Yoko doesn’t seem too bothered by the prospect of facing the two friends, and still her mental state is difficult to discern.
Everyone waits for “Scars of Time” but a very different piece of music begins to play and with the arena darkened the fans listen to the haunting words……

The Moon, she hangs like a cruel portrait soft winds whisper the bidding of trees as this tragedy starts with a shattered glass heart and the Midnightmare trampling of dreams But no, no tears please Fear and pain may accompany Death But it is desire that shepherds it's certainty as We shall see...
The fans are hushed by the new melody, but they start to react noisily as Alexandra Kaesar steps out on to the stage and slowly begins to walk down the ramp, her hair still stained with her own crimson blood.
She was divinity's creature That kissed in cold mirrors A Queen of Snow Far beyond compare Lips attuned to symmetry Sought Her everywhere Dark liqoured eyes An Arabian nightmare...
Whether they’re booing or cheering, everyone in the arena rises to their feet as the reigning Champion walks by; her expression is utterly cold, and she has an almost “robotic” gait as she continues on, with “Her Ghost in the Fog” by Cradle of Filth still playing…….
Philip: And finally, from St Petersburg Russia…..the defending ACW World Champion, Alexandra Kaesar, the White Rose!
Rose stops just short of the cell, listening to the crowd; she wears the bloodied title around her waist, and it looks as if it were cast just for that purpose. Her eyes move to each of the challengers in turn, and whatever else is conveyed by that stare, one overriding message is crystal clear; she intends to destroy every single one of them. Entering the cell, she pauses as she considers her position; then, again with complete calm, she steps up to the left – hand ring and stands on the apron. Blade flexes his arms and smiles darkly; Rose recognizes the direct challenge, and unhesitatingly steps through the ropes to meet it; her determination to obliterate the once – gentle ninja has only been strengthened by his earlier actions.
With all 6 people in the cell, Philip comes out; a referee enters and takes the Championship belt from Rose, who relinquishes it without so much as a second glance, and passes it out to an assistant on the outside . He’s joined by a second referee to deal with the extra ring, before the door is closed and sealed. The crowd gets extremely loud, and the refs confer, standing between the two rings; now everyone is staring at one another, and it’s BK who strikes first. Without warning he runs forward and knocks both Blade and Rose over as they move toward one another, and the refs divide and one calls for the bell to get things officially underway.
Bell Rings.
Everyone springs into action, and two three – way fights break out. Blade and Rose are quickly back up on their feet, and Rose finds herself the centre of unwanted attention. She has to defend against a barrage of punches and kicks from both BK and Blade, and the crowd is surprised to see that she’s struggling to control things, even at such an early point in the match – her mental agitation makes her stronger but less precise, and her foes punish her for it. She manages to duck a spinning kick from BK so that he hits Blade instead; Blade is only stunned for a moment, but Rose grabs this opportunity and forces a kiss upon BK before he can resume his own attack properly. Rose smiles, but BK wipes his lips and nails her with a standing Superkick. Blade whips BK into the corner and drops his knees on to Rose, pinning her; the referee in their ring starts a count, but BK comes rushing back and baseball slides into both of his opponents to stop the count before 2. In the second ring, things have started with just as much intensity; Yoko, like Rose, is having to deal with both RDK and Surion at once but she seems to be making a better fist of it, using her small stature and speed so that the two friends end up hitting each other as much as they hit her. This only works for a limited time, though; RDK and Surion start to work more intelligently, and as Surion draws Yoko’s attack RDK gets behind Yoko and lifts her up, positioning her perfectly before completing his Samoan drop. Yoko is down and RDK pins, but Surion pulls him off almost before the count gets started. Surion whips RDK to the corner, close to the 1st ring; he runs in for a splash but RDK blocks, takes hold of Surion, and ascends the post. The crowd yells as RDK launches himself and Surion into a superplex to the outside; they crash to the mats, and the noise alerts BK. Without wasting a second, he leaves Rose and Blade to fight and rushes to the ropes of his ring; he springboards into a magnificent lionsault from the top rope and strikes RDK. BK pins and one of the refs runs in to count; he gets 2 before RDK kicks. Undeterred, BK hops up to the apron and lionsaults again, this time on to Surion; the result is a second 2 count before Surion frees himself, and the three men start to fight together. BK is spirited, but against RDK and Surion together he is at a disadvantage. RDK lands a mighty punch on BK, and Surion raises his arms to the crowd; they cheer as Surion and RDK give BK the Last Call. It’s effective, but problematic when both men go for the cover; they try to push each other away, and BK is given enough time to recover so that when Surion tries for a lone pin, BK breaks out before 2.

Meanwhile, Yoko is back up and fully recovered – she looks for BK, but seeing him fully engaged with RDK and Surion she realizes that she stands little chance of getting a cover at this precise time. In the other ring she sees Rose still struggling to find her form; she has a few bruises beginning to show through, and despite their furious argument Yoko decides to attack Blade herself. She runs to the ropes of the ring she’s in and performs a twisting jump, arcing right over the heads of the three men on the outside; she lands in the other ring and immediately pursues Blade, who is running to the ropes. Rose is also chasing him; Blade reaches the ropes and springboards up into a long, reverse split legged moonsault which smacks both Yoko and Rose on the head, in effect giving them both a reverse springboard Thor’s Hammer. Blade also comes down quite hard, and the bang makes Surion prick up his ears. Leaving BK and RDK to battle one another, he slides quickly into the ring and moves to set Blade up for a powerbomb. Surion lifts Blade up, and the crowd cheers, but Blade’s eyes snap open and he busts out, dropping down to land behind Surion. Blade sets up a reverse DDT, but instead of delivering it he flips up and over Surion, to execute a standing diamond dust. The crowd gasps at such agility, and Blade makes the pin; Yoko is just awake enough to tackle him off, and she is already working over Blade’s gut as Rose and Surion pick themselves up and rejoin the fray.
Elsewhere, BK and RDK are oblivious to this – they have re – entered the other ring, and a chop contest is now taking place, along with the requisite “Wooooooo!” cries at each blow. This goes on for quite a few moments, but rather than getting worn down, RDK just seems to find the whole thing quite amusing.
RDK: BK, are you kidding around here or what? You’re not Macho enough to take on the people’s champ!
BK flushes red with anger at RDK’s slight; he charges forward, going for a clothesline, but RDK steps aside. BK hits the ropes and comes back at speed, but RDK is waiting and he hits him with a Jabroni buster. The concluding pin is good for 2 before BK kicks out hard. BK flips right to his feet, delighting his fanbase, and superkicks RDK; BK moves forward for a cover, but now RDK’s fans are warming up, and they chant “Macho Man, Macho Man!”, which pisses BK off no end. Encouraged by the support, RDK also kips up in a single movement; He and BK face one another, their respective fans battling to be the loudest, and BK steps forward and gives RDK a shove. RDK pushes him right back, pushes turn into punches, and soon the pair are trading blows at full power, each making the other reel back only to receive the same treatment in return. RDK seems close to “machoing” up, but just as he’s beginning to feel it both he and BK are struck with amazing force in a double clothesline from Blade, who deciding that the fighting rivals offer a greater opportunity to steal a pin has opted to change rings before they notice the danger.
The group Blade has left behind are still engaged in fierce fighting; Yoko and Rose are fighting bitterly, though Yoko is far less keen to attack Rose than Rose is to try and batter her senseless, and Yoko simply tries to defend herself as best she can. This plays into Surion’s hands; he manages to avoid the worst of their attacks, and then when Rose misses with a strong kick he turns on Yoko and delivers Surion’s Revenge (Sternness Dust Alpha), practically knocking her out on the spot. As he gets up Rose tries for her Dragon Suplex, but Surion spins around, pushes her back, and then executes his Hand of Albion (Double handed Chokehold into a sit out powerbomb finish). The crowd goes bananas for the stacked finishers, and Surion pins Rose….he gets just past 2 before Rose kicks, and he is simultaneously attacked by Yoko with a high knee strike as he kneels. Rose jumps up; Surion finds his feet quickly, but Rose and Yoko both have the same idea at once and kick out, connecting directly with Surion’s head. Yoko has dropped into a pin without even thinking about what she’s doing; it only takes a moment for her to realize and she scrambles to get off, but Rose is blind to this and only sees Yoko trying to take her title. Deaf to reason, Rose drags Yoko up, and before Yoko can offer even a single word in her defense Rose nails her Dragon Suplex properly this time. Rose pins Yoko; Yoko looks up at her and the ref counts, 1………2……. the fans are about to explode when Surion dives in and breaks the pin milliseconds before 3. Rose and Surion struggle on the mat, and Yoko sits still for a moment, considering what just happened, before she stands back up and returns to the match.

While all this has been going on, things have been just as manic in the second ring. RDK has been put out of commission for a few moments by a particularly hard powerslam from Blade, and now Blade and BK are engaged in a fierce bout of kickfighting. Neither seems able to land a telling shot, until BK remembers the No dq stipulation and low blows Blade, following up with a beautiful shining wizard. Blade sprawls, properly dazed for the first time in the match, and BK runs to the nearest corner. He raises his arms before taking flight for his SSP, but Blade springs back to his feet and catches BK on his shoulders. There’s nothing BK can do as Blade hits his Lights of Orion. Blade smirks and the crowd boos furiously, but this changes to cheers as RDK approaches from behind, and lightly taps Blade on the shoulder. Blade turns around – right into an earth – shaking punch from RDK; RDK throws Blade to the ropes and prepares for a back drop, but Blade produces an amazing counter into a Canadian Destroyer, which he delivers on to the still – floored BK. Cockily, Blade tries to pin both men at once – but they kick strongly at 2, and Blade has his hands full once again as RDK and BK both seek retribution……
Back in the 1st ring, Yoko is fighting back to her feet from a DDT, courtesy of Surion. Rose is finally getting into her stride; with cool, methodical stamps and kicks she works over Surion’s left leg, preventing him from rising from the mat as she tries to handicap him. But she can’t hold him forever; Surion does roll back to his feet, and sends Rose across the ring to the corner with an irish whip. Surion lowers his head, preparing for a powerful spear; Yoko sees this, after a moment’s thought she jumps in the way as Surion charges. She takes the full force of the blow, and Surion holds her down for a pin – it barely gets one. however, as Rose is easily close enough to drag Surion away. Rose looks at Yoko and looks thoughtful, but only for a moment – she can’t afford to give Surion time to recover, and the crowd roars as she delivers the Mark of the Rose…..She covers, and Yoko does not interfere, but Surion kicks hard at the 2 count, and the three resume their epic conflict. Across the way, Blade is once again being double teamed by BK and RDK; though his strength is enhanced Blade cannot shrug off the double assault, and BK hits a Fisherman’s suplex before RDK uses his own Rock Bottom. Blade is down, and RDK and BK face one another once more; a few blows are traded before RDK manages to get BK back against the ropes. BK’s head spins, and RDK backs up before rushing forward to clothesline him out of the ring. But BK counters it into a backdrop over the ropes – somehow, RDK manages to grab the ropes of the other ring with his hands, while his feet lie across the ropes of the first one. BK doesn’t waste the opportunity – he leaps up to the corner post, and there is a huge wave of camera flashes as BK jumps off, hitting RDK with a body splash and driving both of them to the ground between the rings.
Neither man moves for a moment, and Rose’s innate ring sense picks up their weakness. She leaves Yoko and Surion grappling, and slides out of the ring – Rose pins BK, and gets just past the 2 count. BK throws an arm up, and Rose lifts her head to see Surion making a cover on Yoko – Rose is too far away to act, and her heart is in her mouth as the second count proceeds 1…..2- Yoko gets a shoulder up, and Rose breathes a sigh of relief. Alone in the second ring, Blade has been biding his time, allowing the others to fight; but he sees that those on the outside are vulnerable, and readies himself to attack. As Yoko stands, she sees Blade tense; Yoko has to decide what to do, and she opts to hit a crushing Evenflow DDT on Surion before rolling to her feet, rushing across the ring and performing her second – midair ring to ring jump of the night, passing cleanly over the heads of those on the outside, getting an extra spring from the ropes of the second ring, and hitting Blade in the air with a missile dropkick as he tries to ambush those below. Blade jumps back up without ceremony and raises an eybrow; he looks far less tired than Yoko, but the young woman will not back down, and they circle closer and closer before moving in to trade punches and kicks. Rose and RDK are momentarily diverted by the overhead traffic; BK takes advantage and kicks RDK down to the ground, only to then get a taste of Rose’s legendary left hook. RDK and Rose glance at Yoko and Blade, and then at BK; the crowd goes wild as Rose and RDK deliver a huge double powerbomb to BK on to the thin outer mats, and BK is in cloud cuckoo land. Back in the second ring, Blade seems to have the upper hand; he knocks Yoko to one knee with a tornado kick and smiles nastily as he grabs her by the hair – but he hasn’t seen Yoko palming a little bottle she had concealed in her shirt. As their eyes meet, Yoko lets rip with a blast of poison mist, and the crowd cheer enthusiastically as Blade staggers back, coughing and spluttering from its effects. Yoko casts the bottle aside; realizing that this might be their only chance to put Blade out of commission, Rose and RDK jump into the second ring, and all three are briefly and unintentionally united by a common purpose as Blade recovers with worrying speed, and gestures to his foes to bring it on.
As Yoko, RDK and Rose fight to contain the threat posed by Blade, Surion has taken his time recovering from Yoko’s last attack, and he sees BK lying on the outside of the two rings – in their determination to deal with Blade, the others appear to have forgotten him. Very quietly, Surion creeps to the post closest to BK; BK is stirring a little, but he’s still ripe for an attack. Surion reaches the top of the post; he looks down at BK, and a big grin comes across his face. He raises his arms in imitation of the Prodigy, and everyone realizes that he’s going for an SSP. But that “everyone” includes BK himself, and he is less than pleased….. BK kips up, and with the crowd yelling themselves silly he jumps up to the corner, punches Surion a couple of times and then superplexes him to the outside. The fans all shout for a cover, but BK has something else in mind; shrugging off the effects of the fall he returns to the corner, gives his own familiar signal…..and nails a cannonball SSP to Surion that creates a huge wave of sound. BK pins…..but his almost – certain victory is wrecked as the possessed Blade decides that now is the perfect time to clothesline RDK out of the ring. The count is halted as Blade and RDK drop on top of Surion and BK. Furious, London tries to get a hold of both Blade and RDK, but they’re now fully occupied with one another and already punching and kicking their way around the empty ring. Rose and Yoko look at one another; both tense, ready to engage each other again, but this plan is stopped when both Surion and BK slide into the ring they’re in. Yoko’s attention is focused on BK, and for the first time in the match Rose has to deal with the possibility of Yoko going for a cover of her own. Yoko and BK have been waiting all night for an opportunity to batter one another, and they rush together to crash in the middle of the ring. Rose has no intention of letting them fight, but Surion also has a score to settle, and Rose is taken down by a running bulldog. She is forced to try and take Surion on whilst watching Yoko and BK fighting, and this makes life extremely difficult for the champion as she struggles to stay in control of the match…..

An even more intense fight is being played out in the first ring; Blade is tiring of RDK’s attentions, and now his attacks have become cold and savage as he tries to beat RDK into submission. RDK’s steps become wobbly, and he is forced back to the ropes; Blade taunts him softly as he locks in a sleeper, pressing his fingers against the arteries in RDK’s neck to cut off the supply of oxygenated blood to his brain. RDK’s head is becoming muzzy, his senses dulled, but one thing cuts through it all; somewhere in the massive throngs of fans, people are still chanting, “RDK! RDK! RDK!”. RDK’s eyes are glassy, and Blade releases the hold; he lifts RDK up above his head – but suddenly RDK responds, and jumps off to land upright behind Blade. Blade swings around, and RDK flexes his muscles; the fans cheer, and bellow “OoOoOoOoh Yeah!” RDK smiles at Blade, holds up his hand, and then responds at top volume.
RDK: OOOOOOOOH YEAH BRUDAS!!
The fans go ballistic as RDK swings into full Macho mode; he closes in on Blade; Blade punches him hard, but RDK no – sells it and gives him a Macho Slam. This is followed straight away by a Jabroni Buster, and finally the legendary Rock Bottom. This would normally be enough to put anyone’s lights out, but RDK still isn’t done; he slides out of the ring, and climbs swiftly up the cage wall to one of the small platforms positioned about 7 feet from the top of the cage. RDK does not waste a second; as soon as he’s gauged the distance, he leaps up and sails downward to land a perfect macho Moonsault. The huge BANG on impact stops everyone else in their tracks – they rush across the ring, but the count’s already in progress and they won’t make it. The crowd counts, 1,2 thr – Blade kicks, and there’s a cry of surprise and disappointment from the crowd.
The others don’t bother to see what happens next – Yoko sees the perfect opportunity to make use of the work Rose has already done on Surion’s leg, and she knocks him down before applying the old Ball and Chain. Surion yells, but he doesn’t have long to wait before BK breaks the hold with a Shades of Michaels superkick to Yoko from behind. BK rolls Yoko up, and Rose drags him off of Yoko before the count even gets to 2. With Yoko down and Surion in pain with his leg, Rose grasps her chance and sets up BK for the Mark of the Rose, her eyes gleaming at the thought of utterly obliterating her hated foe. But BK counters, and attempts a whip to the ropes, only to have it reversed; he bounces from the ropes on one side, ducks a clothesline attempt from Rose, and bounces off the other side; he speeds up as much as he can, and Rose turns around to be met by a storming Yakuza Kick. Rose crashes to the mat – but BK drops next to her only a second or two later, brought down by a flipping dropkick from Surion. Surion drops on top of BK and hooks the leg; the count starts, 1,2 – Yoko drags him off, and the pair glare at one another as they move closer –
But the camera abruptly swings around to focus back on RDK and Blade; after the moonsault, it has taken a few moments for them both to get moving again, but now the stakes are raised as Blade has acquired a chair from some place or other. Blade takes a swing at RDK, who blocks it, pulls the chair away and promptly bashes Blade over the head. RDK drops the chair and again climbs the cell wall to the small platform; he again acts quickly, jumping into a second elevated moonsault – but this time their battle has not gone unnoticed. As RDK descends, BK belts from ring to ring and leaps up to dropkick RDK in mid air; the pair come crashing down, and BK drags himself to the corner as fast as he can. He doesn’t have time for any ritual; the SSP is performed with simple grace and devastating power, and the fans are agreed that it just keeps getting better every time they see it. BK pins again, breathing hard to try and get rid of some of the lactic acid scorching his muscles; RDK kicks at 2.5, and BK now pays for his aerial stunt in the form of a slowed response time. RDK snatches up the chair from next to him, throws it to BK, and gives him a Van Daminator before BK can get rid of the weapon. RDK drops and covers but Blade sits upright and rolls over to drag him away. The crowd is making an insane amount of noise as Blade hits the Lights, and covers….only to be thwarted by BK. They struggle briefly; Blade is about to give BK a demonstration of his Lights finisher, but BK breaks out, and counters the move into a reverse Tornado DDT. BK pins, and RDK is too far away to stop it; but Surion is not, and he elbow drops on to BK to break it up. Rose and Yoko are not far behind, and now for the first time in the entire match all six competitors are in the same ring at once…..

Absolute chaos ensues, and it’s difficult to pick up all the details of the melee. Finishers are executed left, right and centre; but such is the density of wrestlers per square foot that no one can get past a count of 2, even with 2 referees, without someone else interrupting it. RDK goes for an ambitious clothesline on BK, Blade and Surion all at once, but his foes are on the ball and he is lifted into a flapjack that dumps him right outside the ring, face first. In the midst of battle, BK suplexes Surion on to the ropes; Surion topples over, but grabs the top rope and hangs on until he can get his feet on to the apron. Surion turns and is about to springboard from the top rope – but BK has a part 2 to his strategy, and he rushes forward, spearing Surion through the ropes and driving him into the cage wall backward. The cage buckles a little, and BK whips Surion into one of the ring posts; he is about to pin, but both referees are engaged elsewhere. Cursing, BK rolls Surion back into the ring; he climbs up to the apron, whereupon Yoko grabs him by the neck and takes him backward over her head, dropping him on to his. Yoko pins; this time a ref is available, and a 2 count is given before Rose hauls Yoko off, looking absolutely livid. Yoko too is at the end of her tether; she slaps Rose, who punches her back, and they fight violently. Rose whips Yoko across the ring; Yoko inadvertently takes down one of the two referees, but she’s far too angry to notice. She storms back only to find that Blade and Rose are now tearing strips off of one another, and a mis – kick from Blade drops the second referee. Yoko, made short sighted by her anger, hits Rose with a DDT, but then takes a german suplex from Blade; Blade laughs at their foolish quarrel, and advances on Rose, who is struggling to find her feet. Blade closes his hand round Rose’s neck and lifts her up; Rose struggles, but she’s tiring, and it looks bad for the defending champ and everyone else –
- but then there’s a huge roar from the crowd, and Blade doesn’t even have time to turn around before he’s nailed in the back by RDK with a massive sledgehammer. RDK doesn’t take any prisoners; BK takes a shot, followed by Surion, and then Yoko. Rose and RDK are the only people left standing; they look at one another, measuring each other, and Rose gives RDK a small nod. RDK raises the hammer and charges; Rose ducks under his swing and continues to the ropes. RDK drops the sledgehammer as he reaches the opposite side and it slides out of the ring, clanging against the cell wall; the pair rebound toward one another, and the impact is dramatic. They clothesline one another, and collapse to the floor; the crowd becomes a little quieter, and for the first time there is stillness, as nobody moves…..except one of the two referees. He shakes the stars from his head and looks around; and slowly, he begins a 10 – count. As he reaches 4, RDK rolls over and pulls himself up to one knee; the other superstars can evidently hear the referee, but fatigue is making it difficult for them to respond. RDK’s eyes travel across the ring, and he sees Blade stirring; the Macho Man’s expression hardens, and he picks up the now rather battered steel chair, draping it over Blade before heading to the corner. He hauls himself up and performs a chairsault; it lacks the finesse of some of his earlier acrobatics, but it still hits hard. The ref abandons the 10 count at 7 to call the pin, since the rest of the field is beginning to recover as well; the others try to make a move, but Blade throws an arm up at 2.5, grasps RDK, and rolls the pair of them over the edge and out of the ring.
The other competitors are gradually finding their feet with the assistance of the ropes; they move more slowly than before, but the desire for victory is as strong as ever. Rose tries to use her Dragon sleeper on Surion, but BK wades in, punching Surion when he can’t defend; Surion lifts up his feet and kicks BK away, and BK staggers backward to be speared by Yoko from behind. Yoko pins, and BK kicks at 2; Rose, in her hurry to stop Yoko, drops Surion and thus gives him an easy escape from what could have been a match – ending situation. Surion makes Rose pay for her preoccupation; as she approaches the scrapping Yoko and BK, Surion dropkicks her from behind and lays her over the middle rope. The crowd roars “6-1-9!!” and Surion obliges them; the move connects, and Surion follows up with a springboard corkscrew moonsault into a cover. Rose just about breaks it before the 3 count, and the battle could easily be won or lost on a single inspired action or mistake…. Things aren’t any quieter on the outside. Blade and RDK are fighting like tigers; RDK is obviously pained at having to fight his old friend in this manner, but there’s a steely determination in him to try and beat the “demon” out of him. Over and over again the pair send each other into the unforgiving walls; Blade’s skin is scraped and cut, leaving little drops of blood at each impact. But he just seems to get more and more angry, and stronger with it; in desperation, RDK pulls out a second chair and chokes Blade, trying to wear him down and stop the rampage. The second referee is back into action, and he follows Blade and RDK at a safe distance, ready to count any pin attempt. Blade rips the chair away and smacks RDK with it on the back; Blade smiles nastily as he hurls RDK head – first at the door, and the heavy impact makes it give way. It swings open; RDK pulls himself up using the cell mesh, and as he holds it, he appears to have an idea. RDK beckons to Blade, and starts to climb, and Blade doesn’t hesitate to follow him.
Back in the ring, the weary contestants remaining there have reached an impasse, and they are lying scattered about on the canvas, all taking a few seconds to rest and too dazed to try and go for a pin right away. BK is the first of them to move – he rolls out of the ring, leans up against the cell wall for a moment, and decides that extreme measures are necessary if he’s to make the all important breakthrough. BK moves around the ring, lifting up the apron cover, until he finds what he wants; the crowd noise surges once again as he pulls out a table. The sweat streams down BK’s face and back, just as it does for all the competitors, and he looks tired as he pushes the table into the ring and rolls in after it. But the fire in his eyes is as strong, as bright as it ever was, and he gets the table set up close to one of the corners. BK looks around him and sees Rose; though he’s willing to win the title any way he can, he knows that only by cleanly pinning the champion will he be able to prevent Rose from goading him ceaselessly about the nature of his victory. BK walks toward Rose; he’s within a couple of feet, but then he gets pulled back and whipped toward the very table he just set up. Relying on pure skill, BK kicks into a flip against the edge of the table – he lands on his feet to a big pop, and swings around with his arm already outstretched. He belts Yoko before she can react; Yoko wobbles backward, and BK senses a chance to put another old feud to rest. He grabs Yoko and pulls her toward the table; Yoko tries to free herself, but BK’s will is stronger at the pivotal moment, and he launches the pair of them into a Tazzplex. They crash right through the table, and chants of “HOLY SHIT!” and “ECW! ECW!” fill the arena. BK smiles; splinters are sticking into his back, but he doesn’t care – he can see the ref, and all he has to do is cover Yoko. But as he looks up, the camera catches his expression turn from satisfaction to surprise, and then almost panic – in his struggle with Yoko, he has missed Rose’s little excursion to the outside. Rose is standing on the corner post above him, and her arms and torso are now wrapped in barbed wire. She raises her hands, and lifts off; the moment seems to take place in slow motion for BK and Rose, but for everyone else it’s over in a couple of seconds. Rose strikes both BK and Yoko heavily, and she just lies in place, covering them – the ref slides in and counts, 1….2…. – Rose readies herself for the crowd’s sonic boom and the bell, but instead she is dragged off of the pair. Rose rips her arm away and rolls to her feet; she comes face to face with Surion, who has cuts all over his hands from grasping the barbed wire along with her arms. Without any warning, Rose charges; Surion’s speed is cut though tiredness, and Rose spears him out of the ring. She throws aside the wire and starts kicking Surion, close to the open cell door…..

While all this has been going on, an equally ferocious battle has been raging on top of the cell itself. Blade and RDK are slamming and suplexing one another; several times the crowd has braced itself for a suicide plunge, but so far the roof appears to be standing up to the punishment it’s taking. One spot seems to be weaker than the others, and Blade tries repeatedly to break it; but it holds, and driven on by the crowd RDK “machos” up again. Totally equal in strength, the fight moves close to the edge of the cell near to where the pair climbed up; RDK aims a huge kick at Blade and the ninja is certain to fall – but Blade grabs RDK’s foot, pivots on the very edge of the cell, and swings RDK out instead. The crowd screams; RDK falls, but he’s facing the mesh and manages to arrest his descent about halfway down the cell. Blade sees this, swears, and immediately pursues with a terrifyingly fast spider climb. He catches up to RDK and tries to dislodge him; RDK punches him back, the wall vibrates violently, and then in a split second they lose their grip simultaneously and fall…..
…..to land on the deeply unfortunate Surion, who at that moment has been whipped out of the cell through the door by Rose. RDK and Blade roll off, both very winded from the impact; Rose rushes out and covers Surion, and the ref who had been watching RDK and Blade’s battle is in just the right place to make the count. The crowd is going crazy, surely it must be over….but a bloodied BK somehow hurtles out of the door just in time to stop the pin before the 3 count is given. BK throws Rose back into the cell, away from the other participants who might interfere, but Blade is hot on his tail, and RDK and Surion follow Blade. Yoko is waiting for them all to return, and they all end up back in the ring, as if by general agreement. The six look at one another – without exception they are exhausted, both mentally and physically, and none of them have the strength to continue for more than a few minutes longer. One way or another, the match is approaching its crunch point.
As if a second bell has been rung, they all attack at the same moment. All hell breaks loose, and all alliances and feuds are null and void – the one and only aim for every man and woman is a pin, any pin. In the mayhem, BK goes for a crossbody on Surion but gets back dropped out of the ring; in close proximity, RDK clotheslines Surion and he too is sent over the top. BK climbs back on to the apron, but the edge of the ring is a happy hunting ground for RDK, and he dropkicks BK into the cell wall with astonishing force. Eager to capitalize, RDK tries another moonsault from the ropes, but BK shifts aside and RDK strikes the hard floor. Surion now gets his chance, and he further dazes RDK with the Hand of Albion…….only to then fall victim to BK’s own Migraine (Unprettier). Surion lies still very close to the apron, and BK goes for the pin, but RDK pulls him away, kicks him in the gut and then whips BK toward the cell wall. But BK manages to alter his trajectory so that he goes flying out of the open cell door; RDK looks around for Surion to pin him, but he seems to have disappeared. So instead he follows BK; as RDK pursues him, BK looks at the cell wall, and calculates where the odds will be most in his favour. It’s a risky call, but BK starts to climb – RDK exits the structure, and as he looks up at BK he decides that he stands a better chance against one opponent than four. Despite the inherent risks, RDK again starts to ascend – but will the gamble pay off, or will the match be decided back on terra firma?
In the ring, Blade seems to have finally snapped – his eyes blaze with dark purpose as he smashes punches and kicks into Yoko and Rose – it’s as if his brain has stopped registering the pain and fatigue of the match. If ever there was a time that Yoko and Rose needed one another, it’s now; but still Rose can’t overcome her paranoia, and Blade exploits their separation ruthlessly. Eventally, Blade manages to hit the Light of Orion on Rose – but Yoko immediately strikes back with her evenflow DDT. The crowd noise is awe – inspiring, and as Yoko looks about she realizes that there’s no opposition in sight. All she has to do is cover Blade or Rose…..but Yoko hesitates. Even after Rose’s anger and accusations, Yoko can not, will not betray her trust; and as she’s thinking this, she hears the sound of someone jumping into the ring from behind. It’s Surion, who has hidden briefly under the ring to avoid getting pinned by RDK; Yoko is quietly glad to have someone else to fight, and she smiles and gives Surion the “come on” gesture…..
While Yoko has been following the dictates of her conscience, BK and RDK have been battling way above; parts of the roof bending under their weight. They move across the space, to the side opposite where they climbed up; below them are the announce desks. At the very edge of the drop, RDK and BK grapple; the crowd is almost screaming, and with a titanic effort BK suplexes RDK over the side into space. RDK has only microseconds to react; he shoots out his arms behind him and grasps the wire, holding on before kicking off and flipping back, kicking BK powerfully in the gut. Bk is shoved backward; RDK scrambles to his feet, lifts BK up…..and with a huge yell throws BK out and downward. Now the crowd really screams; the announce team hove only a second or two to dive clear before BK’s fall is broken by the desk. It is well padded to defend the electronic equipment from impact, but nevertheless it’s a mighty impact to take……and there’s more to come. RDK lifts up his arms, scratched and torn all over, and cameras soak the arena with light as he jumps…..and for a moment, it’s as if he’ll rise and soar forever…..before he twists over into his moonsault landing position. There’s a great crash as the second impact finishes the demolition job on the announce desk; a camera rushes over, and one of the refs is ready for the pin – but there is nothing to count. RDK’s moonsault may have been incredible to watch, but it has hurt him almost as much as BK – the pair are lying, side by side and knocked out, neither able to pin the other. But there may yet be hope for them, as the situation in the ring is far from settled….
