Segment: Strangers (Credit: Hunter / Dan )
The scene slowly begins to fade in, and before it completes this action, many fans already turn away. They can recognize the limousine, and they can see the remaining shards of three tables. The referee stands perfectly still over the limo and looks inside still completely shocked, not really knowing what to even say. The EMTs have already come out by this time, and they too do not know what to do. They are afraid to move the men, but they know full well that something must be done, and quickly. One of the EMTs grabs Hunter and lifts him up into a sitting position, and leans him up against the wall. Following this, they lift up Dan and turn him around so that he lies face up in the limousine. The EMTs stare at them, content that they are still alive, but still not sure exactly what to do. Luckily for them, they won’t have to think for long.
?: What, still alive? A pity…
The officials by the limo all turn around and look out into the dark parking lot, attempting to find the person behind the voice. But Hunter and Dan have both already realized who it is.
Hunter: …Jack…
?: Ah, Mr. Hunter. Do you see what happens when you attempt to fuck with me?
Hunter: …what?
The man steps from out of the shadows. It is exactly who Dan thought it was, though he still cannot believe it. Of all of the Jacks in the world…it had to be him.
Dan: …McCarty…
McCarty: Daniel, m’boy. It’s been a while.
Dan: …it was you. Shoulda guessed.
McCarty: The one who organised all the attempts on your life? Well, you are correct, but it wasn't without Mr. Hunter here that I couldn't have had my men try to unsuccessfully take out your life.
Dan: …what are you talking about?
McCarty: About a month ago, Mr. Hunter here came into my office, and we discussed a possible hit…on you.
Dan: Hunter…you mother---
McCarty: Oh, but wait: there’s more. It seems there was a miscommunication about my pay. Mr. Hunter did not want to pay me everything up front, and you of all people know that I refuse to split up my payment. And then Mr. Hunter made the horribly unwise choice of telling me to...to fuck off, or something of the sort. I bet you regret that now, don’t you?
Hunter: …you were the one…?
McCarty: Yes, it was I. You would think that Dan would be a guilty party, but in this entire situation, he is the only one who is innocent. Rather ironic.
Dan: …I don’t…
McCarty: I was the one who hired those men to kill you. And it was I who hired the men to kill Mr. Hunter. You have been chasing a ghost this entire time. But really, it is all Mr. Hunter’s fault. Don’t you wish that you had killed him now?
Dan, though still hardly breathing, stares up at Hunter with a look of pure hatred in his eyes.
Hunter: …why did you attack me?
McCarty: Isn’t it obvious? As I have said, you do not fuck with me. And yet you tried.
Hunter: But why get…Dan?
McCarty: As you had stated, I hate him anyway. I wanted him dead anyway. It was a two for one deal, as far as I’m concerned.
Dan: …I’ll get both of you!
McCarty: You’ll be getting nothing, I’m afraid. I’ve got a little surprise for you…
McCarty snaps his fingers, and from the shadows come five men wearing trench-coats and holding pistols of different shapes and sizes.
Referee: What is thi---
McCarty: If you wish to keep your life, you will leave now. All of you.
McCarty reaches into his pocket and pulls out a gun to show that he is serious. The camera slowly lowers itself, and then the referee, the EMTs, and the cameraman all quickly run away, as understood by the fading footsteps. McCarty approaches the camera and kicks it up so that it shines on his face.
McCarty: Sorry folks. No show for you.
And with that, he fires a bullet directly into the camera, shattering it in an instant. The fans begin to groan and boo as they can only see the black and white static of the Alphatron before them. The producers attempt to find the feed, perhaps on a security camera, but they have no luck. It would indeed appear as if no one will be able to see what is happening. But that does not stop the fact that it will still happen…

McCarty walks back to the car and points his gun at Hunter…and then lowers it to point it at Dan.
McCarty: Ugh, decisions. Who to kill first?
Dan: …so this is it, then?
McCarty: Yes, it is. I would hope that the two of you have lead eventful and happy lives. This will be over soon…well, no, no it won’t. I prefer the long way. And to save me time, let’s just have my men do it for me at the same time. Then no one dies first and everyone is happy.
He grins and walks away from the limousine as his five men approach the limo.
McCarty: Any last words?
Hunter: …I still haven’t thought of any.
McCarty: Too bad. Dan?
Dan: Guess what guess what guess what, fuck off.
McCarty: It’s been nice knowing you two…well, not really. Kill them.
The guns fire rapidly, and the bullets scrape through flesh and bone at a variety of speeds. The blood splatters all over the limo and the walls by it because of the impact of these bullets. McCarty smiles as he looks at this blood battlefield. Soon thereafter, the guns stop firing, and his men look inside the limousine. McCarty approaches them, and to feed his inner lust for blood, he gazes inside the limo…

McCarty: …what?
Hunter and Dan look up at him, still breathing, completely shocked and covered in different shades of blood. McCarty’s eyes widen as he looks down the line at his men…and jumps back in fear once their bodies crumble down to the ground, and their limbs fall off, and their guts spill out. The pool of blood is larger than anyone has seen before, and McCarty is forced to run away from it to escape its depth. He stands perfectly still at its edge and looks over it slightly, chuckling at the site. No, this is not McCarty. This is someone else. He drops his guns and they splash into the pool of blood, sending some droplets onto McCarty and his suit. McCarty looks up at the figure, dressed completely in black and standing in the shadows. Hunter and Dan look at this figure as well, and when it steps out of the shadows, Hunter’s eyes widen.
Hunter: …Cross.
Damien Cross stands in the pool of blood as the three men around him stare completely shocked. Two of them are confused…the third is simply filled with anger.
Cross: It has been some time, Mr. Hunter.
Hunter: …why are you here?
Cross: Is it not obvious? Or must I explain it?
Hunter: I’d prefer the latter…
Cross: Of course you would.
He sighs and steps deeper into the pool of blood as McCarty crawls back away from him.
Cross: The Company was so impressed with the way that I and my men handled the situation with your woman around two months ago, that they brought us in as full time members. There were many cases that we could have undertaken, and some of them chose some very interesting ones. I, however, chose you. There is something about you, Mr. Hunter, that truly interests me, I must say.
There is a pause as Cross admires Hunter’s shaken form, covered in stranger’s blood.
Cross: Regardless, myself and the others working on your case took notice at your first hit, and we were quite impressed that you were able to survive. We did not think it was anything worth worrying about…and then you almost got killed in the woods. It is then that the Company sent me in. They wanted to make sure that no one would interfere with our experiment concerning you. In other words, you are not to die until they want you to die. So that would explain the day when your house was destroyed.
Hunter: …it was you. You were the one who killed that guy and saved me…
Cross: Indeed I was.
Hunter: Why?
Cross: As I said there, Mr. Hunter: I am your guardian angel. And we angels do not like to see our…heh…“clients” hurt.
Hunter: Why did you tell me it was Dan?
Cross: What?
Hunter: Why did you tell me Dan was behind all of this, even though I thought it was McCarty?
Cross: Oh. Well the Company noticed that you already hated Dan, and they thought you two would create an interesting fight. And I must say, they were right. You put on quite a match. Hell, you almost did McCarty’s job for him with that little spot off the roof.
Dan: …we were just your guinea pigs?
Cross: Oh, hello, I almost did not see you there. The name is Damien Cross, torturer extraordinaire, as Hunter would call me.
Hunter: …get the fuck away from me.
Dan: ...what he said.
Cross: I am afraid that the pay is too high for me to do that.
Hunter: Stop interfering with my life!
Cross: I cannot do that…and you know it.
Hunter: Why won’t you just let me die?
Cross: You are complaining about living?
Hunter: It was my time! If it weren’t for you, I’d be dead right now!
Cross: Why do you find that a problem?
Hunter: …just…leave me alone! Let me die in peace if I must!
Cross: If the Company wants you alive, you stay alive.
Hunter: You motherfucker!
Cross: Now then, as for Mr. McCarty.
McCarty widens his eyes and attempts to run away, but Cross catches him momentarily and drags him back over to the limousine. Cross takes out another gun and points it at McCarty’s face.
Cross: I do not care what you do with Mr. White, that is up to you. But as for Mr. Hunter: if you ever attempt to kill him again, know that you will not be alive by the end of that day.
McCarty: …I…
Cross: Understand?
McCarty: …yes.
Cross: Then go.
McCarty stumbles to his feet and runs away quickly. He still has his gun, but he is in too much shock to even think about using it now.
Cross: As for you two…your injuries seem quite unpleasant. I trust the ambulance will be here soon. And I trust no one will know of my existence, as you are both too smart to tell people what happened here.
Dan: Fuck you.
Cross: That is quite a tongue you have, Mr. White. Keep your mouth closed if you wish to keep it.
Dan looks up at him scornfully, and then turns away. Hunter, however, keeps his eyes trained on Cross.
Hunter: …I hope you go to hell.
Cross: Well maybe one of these days. But I will take you with me.
Hunter: What now?
Cross: I bid you farewell. Nothing more…
He smirks as Hunter’s hate reaches alarming levels. It takes only his reason to hold him back.
Cross: …and nothing less.
And with that, Cross turn around and steps through the pool of blood. When he walks out of it onto normal ground, his footsteps miraculously leave no trace of blood. Hunter stares at him until he completely disappears into the shadows. He then looks down at Dan, and together mentally the two of them say all that needs to be said. Moments later, the doors behind them burst open and the EMTs as well as close to ten security guards pile out. As usual, they are too late. They slowly surround Hunter and Dan, but the two of them do not plan on explaining anything. At this point, they know that all they need is medical treatment. But what is done to one’s mind is nothing compared to what is done to one’s body. The two of them slowly close their eyes and allow everything to sink in as the security guards and EMTs stare at the scene.
This is their eternal pain...
Fade Out.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Alphatron monitor begins to emit a slight rumble as a video package begins to play on the screen. The clip alternates between monologues from Kudo and Senator with breaks of action in between.Kudo: The Senator Steve Philips' retirement match against Kudo Yasuda. Was I surprised at his challenge? Yeah, a bit. The man has done so much in ACW that it would only be an honor to be his final opponent.--- Senator: Kudo Yasuda, should he be able to revert to his proper persona, is the very opponent who I wish to finish my career against. Simply put, I think he has the tools to put on the best match possible, and that is why I challenged him.--- Kudo: Things have changed since the blood spilling days of the Great KUDA. I've had time to clear my head and reevaluate my priorities. --- Senator: Yes, the Great KUDA was an incredibly skilled opponent. However skilled he was, though, he let his uncontrollable rage get in his way, he let it hold him back from being truly great.--- Kudo: Things have been turning back on the upside; my sensei was recently released from the hospital, I have my confidence back, and I'm getting another chance in the ring with the Senator at the biggest Pay Per View of ACW.--- Senator: Last year at Omega Effect, Victor Laureano and I fought each other in a match that to this day, I consider the best, most memorable contest in my career. This year, for my retirement match, I wanted to have an opponent worthy of the honor, someone who would bring the best out of me, as Latino did.--- Kudo: I wasn't around for the first Omega Effect, but I'm no stranger to the big time. This time around, I guarantee that the Senator will be facing a reinvented and incredibly determined Kudo Yasuda. It's what he wanted after all. --- Senator: Mr. KO, they call him. I just hope that he will not be able to live up to his name tonight. I know that I will have to look out first and foremost for his strikes, it does not take Tim Dwight to tell me that. Even so, I wish to put every last aspect of his skills to the test, and such, to test my own skills.--- Kudo: I can't look at you in the face and say that I am definitely going to take this match 100%. But don't think that I won't be going at Senator with my all: kicks, knees and strategy. As far as I'm concerned, the only thing guaranteed in this match is the Senator's wish to face the original Kudo Yasuda. I'm going to make sure I push him past his limit and bring out a similar fire that he has sparked inside of me. The beginning...the end...believe the hype...the time is now for both of us, and I promise you that as junior heavyweights, we will not disappoint!--- Senator: Do I think I can win this? Certainly. Do I think I will win? I haven't the faintest idea on that account! Let this be said, Kudo will never get a fight out of anyone as he will get from Senator Steve Phillips, at Omega Effect. And that, my friends, is nothing, but the truth!------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Match 11: Senator Steve Phillips vs. Kudo Yasuda (Credit: Senator/Kudo) Maxwell McNally: Just listen to this crowd Eddie, Omega Effect is truly living up to the hype so far tonight.“Fast” Eddie Edison: You speak the good truth Max, I feel like a little boy again at my first wrestling show!The crowd is rowdy as can be as they usually are in between matches and promos. They begin to pick up in volume as Philip Jones makes his way into the ring with his fancy suit for the biggest PPV of the night. The fans begin to quiet down as Philip starts speaking into his mic.Philip: Ladies and gentlemen, the next match is scheduled for one fall. Introducing first…from Kyoto, Japan!The pop is immense and fans begin to get riled up in anticipation as Philip is almost drowned out in KU-DO chants.“Fast” Eddie Edison: I think we know who’s coming now! As the fans all rise up to catch a better glimpse of the man they have not seen in some long months, “Vampire Killer” blasts off on the speakers and some of the crowd seems a bit disappointed.Maxwell McNally: That’s the Great KUDA’s music Eddie… “Fast” Eddie Edison: Maybe he wants to avenge his first loss from the Senator and is determined to do it as KUDA? Or maybe --Just when mass confusion is about to set in, the lights shut off completely and the ACW arena is left pitch black save for the flashes of light from cameras, scattered across the audience. Why they would be taking pictures in perfect darkness is not even taken into question as “Vampire Killer” fades out and single large beats begin to sound over the sound system, reverberating throughout the arena walls.BEAT.. beat. beat. BEAT.. beat. beat. BEAT.. beat. beat. BEAT. BEAT.BEAT – As the beats pick up by the end, the speakers cut off into the instantly recognizable opening chords of “Poison” by Takashi Sorimachi which sends the crowd wild.“Fast” Eddie Edison: -- Or maybe Kudo Yasuda truly has arrived here tonight, Max!A single circular ring of light shines on top of the ramp and at the climax of the music, Kudo Yasuda takes a step into view. The crowd reaction is deafening. Maxwell McNally: Kudo Yasuda in the flesh, Eddie.“Fast” Eddie Edison: And this crowd is loving every moment of it!!!Though the fans are hidden in darkness, they’re voices and cheers make it extremely evident that they are still around, all eyes on Kudo, wrapped in a classic R-3 flag, as he takes measured steps down the ramp with the spotlight following him, dragging out the dramatics.Maxwell McNally: Notice how Kudo is not wearing the blood stained flag from his Great KUDA days, Eddie. He seems to truly have changed.“Fast” Eddie Edison: It looks like he’s a changed man indeed, Max.Kudo takes his final steps up towards the ring and slowly crosses over between the top and middle ropes, standing right in the center of the ring with his head down, basking in the great attention he is receiving. Suddenly, with one jerk upwards, Kudo raises his head up and stretches out the R-3 flag draped over his shoulders for all to see, as the lights are instantly restored. The effect is amazing and the crowd shows it with massive cheers and chants.Philip: If you would all direct your attention to ringside, we have a number of special guests from Senator Steve Phillips. Riki Choshu and Masahiro Chono from New Japan Pro Wrestling, Genchiro Tenryu from WAR, and the legendary technician, champion, and trainer, Dory Funk Junior!!! And now, for the last time here in ACW...“Hail to the Chief” plays and Kudo holds his position, merely turning his head to watch the introduction of The Senator. The theme plays out through one loop, and then, the sound fades out...as the familiar intro to "Eye of the Tiger" begins.Maxwell McNally: It looks as if Kudo is not the only person here in this match to use two enterance themes...Steve Phillips sure does wish to go out with a bang here in his last match in ACW. Few have been able to change the very in-ring style of the company as the Senator has, shifting the overall average style of ACW to a more technical approach than it was before he arrived here. He may never have actually held a major title, but his legacy will live on, regardless.As "Eye of the Tiger" continues, a huge burst of tickertape shoots not just from the entrance, but up from the entire entrance ramp in a successive line right up to the ring, where a gigantic circle of red, white, and blue fireworks shoot up from each turnbuckle. As the audience cheers wildly, Senator Steve Phillips makes his entrance, striking his trademark Victory pose at the top of the ramp, wearing his classic red, white, and blue victory jacket, and his classic silver boxing shorts, showing thumbs up to both sides of the aisle as he makes his way down to the ring.
Maxwell McNally: Just listen to this crowd, cheering for both of these wrestlers. Respect is an issue that comes up all the time in wrestling, and this is a perfect example of the respect that a wrestler can earn and receive from the fans. This right here is what wrestling is all about.
As Senator Phillips walks up the ringside stairs up to the apron, Kudo suddenly moves from the position he was standing in all this time and it triggers a natural reaction from Senator who backs up a step as Kudo approaches him.
“Fast” Eddie Edison: Could the party be starting early here?!
The crowd quiets down as Senator and Kudo stare at each other between the ropes. Kudo, uses one hand to pull off the sunglasses and the two lock eyes as the crowd is ready for a rudo move. The crowd and Senator no less, continue to look on, until Kudo breaks the tension by sitting on the middle rope and pulling up the top rope, creating an opening for Senator.
Maxwell McNally: Now that is the ultimate sign of respect by this youngster, Kudo. “Fast” Eddie Edison: Indeed, he’s holding the ring ropes open for Senator to freely pass.
The crowd lets out big “ooooohs” and even applause as Senator cracks a slight smile and quickly propels through the ropes into the ring, the wariness of the dreaded KUDA side still evident. Seeing this, Kudo himself lets out a smile and picks himself off of the ropes and takes his position in his corner.
“Fast” Eddie Edison: What just happened there? Maxwell McNally: Well the Senator was not 100% sure if it truly is a straight edge Kudo Yasuda holding the ring ropes for him, and he was being careful of any mind games and tricky moves from his opponent before the start of their match here tonight.
The crowd is still in the moment as Philip Jones steps into the center of the ring and takes to the mic once again.
Philip: Introducing first to my right, from Kyoto, Japan, weighing in at 200 pounds, he is Mr. K.O., the R-3 Prodigy, the Yin Yang Dragon…KUUUUUDO YASUUUUUUUUUDAAAAAAA!!!!
Black and white streamers fly across the ring around where Kudo stands, similar to a Japanese style match as he swiftly removes the flag from his shoulders and reveals his heavy white attire underneath it all. Kudo bows to Senzo “The Sensei” Sakai, his long time sensei back in Japan, who is now sitting in the front row and has fully recovered from injuries suffered in the crossfire between the heated Tornado and Great KUDA rivalry. Sakai nods his head in acknowledgement and Kudo turns his attention back to the ring.
Philip: And his opponent, from Washington D.C., weighing in at 195 pounds, the Newsmaker, Headline Breaker, Office Taker, World Shaker…THE SENATOOOOOOOOOOOR, STEVE PHILLIPS!!!
Appropriately colored streamers fly across Senator in the same style as for Kudo and the cheers are amounting to unbelievable levels. Referee Jacob Jones makes his way into the ring and does the standard last minute checks on both wrestlers.

Maxwell McNally: Of course ladies and gentlemen this is the final stop in Senator’s retirement tour, and I couldn’t have agreed more at the choice to face Kudo Yasuda in his final match here at Omega Effect. “Fast” Eddie Edison: There’s some history here though isn’t there Max? Maxwell McNally: That’s right, this will not be the first time Senator and Kudo have come across each other. It dates back to Kudo Yasuda’s 5th defense of the Entertainment championship last year, where he was to debut the 5th and last move of his new arsenal at the time. “Fast” Eddie Edison: I remember that Max. Maxwell McNally: Of course we all know of the move now as the Go To Sleep which has toppled everyone that Kudo has used the move on so far. “Fast” Eddie Edison: I know that look Max, you’re dying to let out some more knowledge on us aren’t you? Maxwell McNally: Well if you remember back, Senator was the only one in that Entertainment series to escape a new move in that title defense and he left the technique unseen until some many months later when Kudo debuted it on El Rey de la Mascara. The title match itself though ended with a calculated DQ on Kudo’s part, stealing the victory and retaining the belt. “Fast” Eddie Edison: Now there was also an alliance between the old Armada group and the Senatorial Stable, forming the KYSPBA alliance, but Senator wasn’t really around when Kudo had reluctantly agreed to it did he? Maxwell McNally: True, the two did not exchange any heated words and in fact they seemed to have put the past behind them to face a common enemy, the Untouchables.
Several staff members are now clearing the streamers from inside the ring. Maxwell McNally: Flash-forward to now and just recently the Great KUDA started things over again and suddenly the Senator had another match at Spring Into Hell with this persona of Kudo’s, a rematch per say, with the man behind the mask from a year before, but he would find out how different this match would be, but the Senator still squeezes the victory, and forces a very uncharacteristic tap out from the Great KUDA. “Fast” Eddie Edison: So where does that leave us now, Max? Maxwell McNally: Well, it brings us to this match, with both men having earned a previous victory over the other and the ultimate question of whether Kudo Yasuda or Steve Phillips is the best, still in the air. You have one man’s last match, and another’s first match towards his road to self discovery. You have the veteran and the youth, and you have – “Fast” Eddie Edison: --and you basically have a damn good match coming up!!!
Jacobs makes some last second checks before animatedly signaling for the bell. ---- *Ding Ding Ding*
The crowd is almost split between these two wrestlers, with opening chants being cut off by the other. Both Kudo and Senator begin circling each other a bit before Senator puts out his hand. Kudo stops and looks on and without hesitation is willing to accept the Senator’s offer of respect with a firm handshake. It lasts for only a second though and the two men break off and the determination to win is back on.
“Fast” Eddie Edison: Another show of respect there, now by Senator to Kudo and this match is underway!
Senator starts the match and forcefully grapples Kudo into a lock up, but it is rapidly broken with Kudo twisting into a quick hammerlock. Senator reverses his position and now locks Kudo in the same move applying pressure and causing Kudo to drop to one knee. Still early on in the match though, Kudo gets back into a standing position and manages to twist and regain position and in control of Senator’s arm. Just as Kudo is about to apply another arm lock, Senator drops to the ground and uses his leverage to arm drag Kudo down to the mat. Senator hooks Kudo’s arm into his own arm lock but Kudo quickly kips up into a standing position, and with his arm still wrenched back by Senator, Kudo performs a turn into a quick headstand back up to his feet, reversing the pressure yet again onto Senator.
Maxwell McNally: Both men are evenly matched in the get go so far.
Senator anticipates this and manages to loosen the hold and drop into a rapid drop toe hold, taking down Kudo. Senator gets back up quickly and bounces off the ropes on the opposite side. Kudo sees this coming and quickly repositions himself face down in front of Senator who reflexively hop steps over him. Senator bounces off the other side and Yasuda is back on his feet, jumping up as Senator’s momentum takes him underneath his legs. As Kudo lands, he drops to his back and holds his feet up while Phillips gains even more momentum from bouncing once again off the ropes on the other side. Senator is caught on Kudo’s feet and propelled upward, but the speed and ability of Senator Phillips allow him to utilize the situation to land on his feet instead. Senator quickly regains position and about-face’s as Kudo kips back up to his feet again. The two pause there, staring at each other after the high paced exchange and the crowd is behind both of them again.

“Fast” Eddie Edison: Wow that was fast, and both of them are still evenly matched! Maxwell McNally: This is a definite change already from Great KUDA vs. Senator, with Senator taking the initiative early on instead, but this match is far from over. And with the whole idea of Kudo finding balance, you should also notice that his attire today is almost entirely white, perhaps showing the complete opposite spectrum that the Great KUDA was? And Kudo’s also wearing that ARMADA headband that ties him to his teacher, just under his right knee. Could this represent a new Kudo Yasuda?
The two men begin circling each other once again but this time it is Kudo who goes for a lock up. They tie up and Senator is pushed onto the corner where the referee signals for a clean break, and Kudo appears to obey. Kudo lets his hold off but then throws a fiery roundhouse kick aimed straight for Senator’s face. Senator manages to dodge it at the last second though and regain his composure. The fans are split again as to who they’re cheering on but it’s obvious they are enjoying the action as both men take back to the center of the ring. Suddenly Kudo lunges towards Senator with a wild forearm which he promptly dodges. Senator nails Kudo as he turns around with some loud chops.
CHOP!…...............................CHOP!…...............................CHOP!
Kudo is taken aback, grasping his reddening chest for a moment but then turns straight to the Senator again and unleashes some focused knife edged chops of his own.
CHOP!….......................CHOP!…..................CHOP!
Suddenly both men have channeled some inner spirit as they continue the rapidfire chopfest without showing any signs of stopping...
CHOP!…..................CHOP!….............. CHOP!… CHOP!…...................CHOP!…...................CHOP!… CHOP!…..................CHOP!….................. CHOP!… … CHOP!…....................CHOP!…..............CHOP!…
The Senator begins to take control as Kudo begins feeling the cumuulative effects of the series of stiff shots to his chest. Senator winds up, unleashes one more big CHOP and like a sack of potatoes, Kudo drops to the ground, clutching his chest, which has now turned a bright crimson red.
Maxwell McNally: Kudo going up against some of the hardest chops in ACW from the Senator. “Fast” Eddie Edison: Yeah and I bet it don’t look too pretty from where Senzo Sakai is sitting!
Senator picks up Kudo by his hair which has grown since his stint as KUDA, and irish whips him across the ropes. Senator hits a low dropkick onto Kudo’s knee and takes him down again. Senator hooks Kudo’s leg and wraps his own legs around it, wearing down Kudo’s knee with a standard, yet very effective leg lock. Kudo uses his other leg to start kicking Senator but as Senator tightens his grip, Kudo is sent back in pain. The Senator releases the hold and gets back up, now dropping his knees down onto Kudo’s with great speed. Senator picks Kudo up after some damage to his knee and sets him back into the corner turnbuckles. Senator follows this with some toe kicks to Kudo’s midsection as well as some stiff elbows into his chin. Kudo takes the shots completely and starts to show signs of withering down as Senator backs up into the center of the ring and charges at Kudo. Kudo manages to roll out of harms way and Senator comes crashing into the corner. Kudo follows up with some hard kicks of his own, the intensity growing with each one. Senator begins to absorb the blows and wills himself out of the corner. The fans cheer the show of strength as he backs Kudo back up. Senator takes another mid kick from Kudo but returns one of his own.
KICK!…........................KICK!….................... KICK!…............... KICK!…............................... KICK!… KICK!…...............................…......... KICK!…............... KICK!…...... KICK!…
Despite Senator’s valiant attempt to trade blows with Kudo, Kudo overpowers him with relative ease and Senator is taken down onto the mat with one last stiff KICK. Senator clutches his side and rolls out of harms way as Kudo acknowledges the fans as they grow in volume.
Maxwell McNally: Even with the early work done on that leg from Senator, Kudo overpowers Senator in that series of strikes. Just a testament to the strength of Kudo’s legs.
Kudo shakes his leg off after those shots as Senator picks himself up. The two tie up again but Kudo quickly shifts and reaches behind Senator, with his arms around his waist. The quickness allows Kudo to drop his arms and drag Senator’s legs backwards, dropping him face first into the mat. Kudo uses his speed once more and lunges to Senator’s head and quickly locks it in a grounded headlock. Senator tries to fight it off but Kudo couples it with a couple of knee strikes that give him the leverage still. Senator Phillips lifts himself enough to get to his feet and Kudo has no choice but to follow him up as he clutches Kudo’s waist, still in the headlock and lifts him back into a northern lights suplex!
Maxwell McNally: A good counter by Senator there.
Senator doesn’t hold for the bridge and instead gets back to his feet to begin stomping on Kudo’s chest and leg. Senator lifts Kudo back up and pushes him back into the corner. Senator hooks Kudo’s leg around the middle rope and delivers a few quick kicks as well as pulling on his leg, using the ropes for leverage. Senator easily breaks the hold by the 5 count and continues working on Kudo with a series of chops and punches.
CHOP…............................... PUNCH…............................... CHOP…............................... PUNCH…............................... CHOP!
Senator ends the series with a final big chop and Kudo loses his balance and falls down in a sitting position in the corner.
“Fast” Eddie Edison: Ouch! Another sequence of strikes from the Senator there! Maxwell McNally: I do believe that he was paying a little homage to Genichiro Tenryu in the stands there with those punch and chop combos.
The Senator uses his advantage wisely and pulls Kudo back to the center of the ring by his worked on leg. Senator cranks it back and Kudo yells in pain as Senator drops to the mat and drives Kudo’s leg onto his. Senator ceases to release his hold on Kudo’s leg even after this and continues to torque it in ways it wasn’t naturally meant to be moved. Senator now slides out of the ring and pulls the same leg over to the corner. The fans get anxious as Senator positions Kudo up and slams his leg into the post of the turnbuckle, sending Kudo rolling in the ring in pain. Senator rolls back in and with Kudo still on the ground he goes for the cover.
ONE…………………………….TWO………… shoulder up!

With Kudo’s leg in pain, he breaks the hold using his arm rather than kicking out, but Senator had not planned on winning so easily in the first place. Senator picks Kudo back up and hooks his arm over his head. Senator lifts up Kudo and goes for a vertical suplex, but Kudo manages to fight it off and come back down onto his feet. On his way back, he uses the momentum and instead frees his head from Senator’s grasp and nails a vicious DDT on Senator.
“Fast” Eddie Edison: Dangerous!! Did you hear that impact?!
The force on Kudo’s leg after that move temporarily immobilizes him, but the DDT does the same to Senator. Kudo crawls back to the ropes and pulls himself up, shaking his leg out and tightening the ARMADA headband around his knee. Senator is a bit dizzy after the forceful move but he gets back to his feet on his own only to take a swift kick from Kudo to the chest, which takes whatever wind was left in him right out. Kudo backs Senator up with a series of forearm shots and finishes with a dropkick, sending Senator through the ropes and back to the outside.
Maxwell McNally: The shift in momentum has turned over to Kudo now after that DDT, but is his knee going to hold for the duration of this match?
Kudo leans on the ropes, tending to his knee as Senator makes it back to a standing position on the outside. The fans begin to start cheering as Kudo turns his head and stares at Senator on the outside.
“Fast” Eddie Edison: Don’t tell me! Maxwell McNally: How smart would it be if he did…
On cue, Kudo shakes his leg off and makes speedy trip down the ring and propels himself dangerously over the top rope straight onto Senator on the outside!!
“Fast” Eddie Edison: He did!!! Maxwell McNally: Suicide dive there by Kudo, but how much did that cost him?
Both men are laid out on the outside as the referee resets his count. 1……… 2……. 3……..4 Kudo picks himself up as well as Senator and he throws him back in the ring before the 5 count. It appears as Kudo is determined to keep the match in the ring and on the mat as he goes for a cover which is broken just after the two count. Kudo positions himself above Senator and applies a camel clutch, pulling back on Senator’s face.
“Fast” Eddie Edison: A solid submission to help Kudo catch his breath there.
Kudo pulls back Senator’s head into a high angle and wraps his arm around it in a dragon sleeper.
Maxwell McNally: Kudo transitioning into that rare Dragon Constrictor submission it seems. It appears he is going to work on Senator’s neck and head area after that crucial DDT that gave him the upper hand.
Kudo begins to convert his leverage and tries to wrap Senator’s own arm around his neck to complete the Dragon Constrictor move but he adamantly fights it off and Kudo has no choice but to release the hold as Senator intelligently used his arm to apply as much force on Kudo’s knee as possible during the camel clutch position. The pain mounts too far and Kudo instead switches position into a headlock on Senator. The two work their way up into a standing position and Senator unleashes some elbows on the side of Kudo’s head, trying to break the hold, but it is cinched in well. The referee asks if Senator gives up but he will have nothing of it and instead backs Kudo up onto the ropes. Kudo pushes Senator off as he bounces, and Senator comes back from the other side with a Partisan Kick but Kudo ducks it. Senator however had another plan in mind and quickly turns back around to catch Kudo’s back and lifts him into a low angle german suplex! Senator doesn’t break the hold and lifts Kudo back up and hits a sheer drop backdrop suplex, adding to the damage. The hold is still not broken and Senator rolls back over Kudo and applies a full nelson before dropping him onto the mat with the Liberalizer!
“Fast” Eddie Edison: Quick paced action here! Maxwell McNally: Senator completing that Senatorial Series on Kudo, turning the tides once again. “Fast” Eddie Edison: And I don’t think it’s looked any better in his entire career!
The fans all now seem behind Senator after this brilliant show of will as he goes for the pin.
ONE…………………………TWO ………………………… ………… kickout!
Senator notices the legs after the kickout and now goes back to focusing on Kudo’s leg. Senator hooks his leg and applies a high angle boston crab, with the emphasis on the knees. Kudo is in a lot of pain now as he tries to scratch and crawl his way onto the ropes. Senator makes sure he is right above Kudo though, and squashes any attempt that his opponent has at making it to the ropes. The fans now seem to be willing Kudo on, with “Please don’t tap!” chants quickly picking up throughout the arena. Kudo makes another effort to reach the ropes, but the weight on his back and the pain in his leg is too much. The referee has made another request for Kudo to give up, but he makes very audible yells of “NO!” in pain.
“Fast” Eddie Edison: Could this be a mirror image of what happened at Spring Into Hell Max!
Kudo finally pulls himself together and with both of his arms, he wills himself back up slowly, carrying Senator right on his back and the fans are all cheering Kudo on as he pushes himself up and eases some of the force, in a stunning display of willpower. Kudo pulls himself closer to the ropes in this position but Senator is a quick thinker. Seeing Kudo making a run towards the ropes, Senator now converts his boston crab into a Tax Cut, and elevated boston crab, with the elevated part almost entirely of Kudo’s doing. The fans all “ooooh” partially in disappointment for Kudo and partially in amazement as Senator continues to dominate the match.
“Fast” Eddie Edison: Daaaaaangerrrous!!! Maxwell McNally: Kudo in a big predicament here!
The referee makes another familiar trip beside Kudo asking if he wants to quit but Kudo gives him his answer as he makes one last lunge towards the bottom rope, and is successful in grabbing it.

Maxwell McNally: With the distance Kudo had gained from the earlier boston crab, he was able to break out of that much more painful Tax Cut.
Kudo indeed breaks out as Senator releases the hold, but Kudo is in a world of hurt now. Senator picks himself up and delivers some stomps on Kudo as he catches his breath.
Maxwell McNally: It almost seems as though Senator has taken more to a brawling side in this match Eddie, viciously working on Kudo’s knee and delivering some stiff shots.
Senator indeed follows up with some more chops as he brings Kudo back onto his feet, leaning on the corner. Senator lifts Kudo up and seats him on the top turnbuckle, chopping him midway to make sure he doesn’t fight back. However, Kudo does begin to fight back desperately, delivering some big headbutts that send Senator reeling back. Kudo stands back up on the middle turnbuckles and with Senator reeling back, Kudo leaps off and performs a spiral dropkick in midair, taking Senator down and rolling back.
“Fast” Eddie Edison: Kudo showing signs of life here!
Kudo quickly pulls himself back up, with a slight limp on his step, as Senator clutches his head and does the same. Kudo rushes to the ropes and handsprings off of them and back looking for a Flashback Elbow, but Senator at the last second catches him and delivers a big backdrop.
“Fast” Eddie Edison: And Senator shuts him down again! ---no!
Kudo immediately gets up with the same momentum and clutches Senator from behind and delivers his own sheer drop backdrop suplex, a nastier version with Senator landing mostly on his head and rolling back over it, with both men down now and the fans erupting in the background.
“Fast” Eddie Edison: Where did that come from?!!!! Maxwell McNally: Kudo knowing it was a desperate time manages to get back to his feet and deliver a backdrop to take Senator down with him. “Fast” Eddie Edison: Yeah and I bet both are feeling the effects now! Could that even be called a backdrop? Kudo dropped him straight on his head!
The referee checks on both men before beginning his count:
1…………. 2………… 3…………The fans begin chanting “KU-DO” and “K-O” but Senator is still visibly moving after that nasty shot. 4…………. 5…………The fans now are split between Senator chants and Kudo chants. 6………..
“Fast” Eddie Edison: Well someone had better get up or this match is going to be a draw!
7……both men begin rolling in opposite directions. 8…………. At the same time both men make it back to their feet, with the aid of the ropes and turnbuckles, triggering another wave of cheers from the crowd.
Senator however, has taken the brunt of the damage in the earlier exchange, and is still temporarily out of it as Kudo looks to take advantage now. Kudo hooks Senator’s arm and head and hoists him into the air, holding him up for a second before dropping straight down into a brainbuster.
“Fast” Eddie Edison: BRAAAAAAINBUSTAAAAAAHHH!!!! Maxwell McNally: This could be it –
Kudo rolls over Senator and covers...
ONE…………………. ……………………. ……………………..TWO ………………………….. …………………………………kickout!!!

The fans all start cheering again as Kudo picks himself back up, unphased of the kickout. Senator is still clutching his head after that assault and Kudo takes advantage with a guillotine choke, hooking Senator’s head and locking around his body with his legs, continuing the pressure on Senator’s neck. Senator now finds himself in trouble as he struggles to maintain life. He forcefully moves about his legs, inching his way closer to the ropes until finally he manages to get a leg underneath for the break. Kudo complies but continues with some stomps. Senator gets up to one knee with Kudo pulling him up, and throws a big CHOP, which catches Kudo by surprise. Senator continues the assault with more chops but Kudo will have none of that and by the last one, he ducks it and grabs hold on Senator’s arm, taking him down with a rapid arm drag. Kudo attempts to transition into an arm lock like in the beginning of the match, but Senator breaks out and quickly comes face to face with Kudo again. Senator sticks his index finger up and waves it at Kudo while shaking his head, imitating the man before him. Kudo lets out a loose smile and the crowd eats it up and another set of cheers begin to mount, but the chants quickly begin for Senator. “Fast” Eddie Edison: Haha! Not so fast there, says Senator. Maxwell McNally: And we’re back to where we were from the start, face to face, these two men are still going strong.
Senator shakes his head and neck around, loosening it back up as Kudo does the same for his knee. Suddenly Kudo brings his arm out and dares Senator to attack him.
“Fast” Eddie Edison: What’s he doing here Max? Maxwell McNally: It looks like Kudo wants to trade shots. Kudo is known for some of the stiffest kicks in the business, but Senator is in no way lacking on that part, with his extensive training in martial arts.
Senator does not hesitate and delivers a quick kick to Kudo’s ribs and Kudo returns it. The two trade kicks until finally it appears that Kudo will be taking advantage again when Senator suddenly breaks out in a relentless assault with crescent kicks, and sends Kudo reeling. Senator goes for a final high inside crescent kick but Kudo blocks it!
“Fast” Eddie Edison: Block!!!
Kudo returns with a rolling koppou kick but Senator dodges it!
“Fast” Eddie Edison: No one home!
Senator’s sidestep allows him to bounce off the ropes and come back with a big Partisan Kick but Kudo ducks it!
“Fast” Eddie Edison: Kudo evades it!
Kudo uses his momentum and twists in the air with a vicious Roaringiri headed straight for Senator’s head but Senator blocks it!
“Fast” Eddie Edison: BLOCK!!!
The blocked shot sends Kudo falling down and landing on his bad knee as Senator sees this and gets a short but explosive running start and goes for a Shining Capitol forward flip heel kick but Kudo ducks it!
“Fast” Eddie Edison: OH MY --- AGAIN!!!!!
Senator falls on his butt into a sitting position after missing the move and Kudo shows his own explosive nature by launching himself onto the ropes and nailing one of the fiercest Yakuza Knees ever in ACW, sending Senator’s upper half of his body back down to the mat.
“Fast” Eddie Edison: YAKUZA KNEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Kudo pulls himself together, though he is visibly fatigued after that lightning quick exchange and heads for the pin.
ONE!!!………………….. ……………………….. …………………………………..TWO!!! ………………………………………………………. ………………………………………………………………………………THR-NO!
Senator somehow instinctively gets his shoulder up even after taking the hard shot to the head.
“Fast” Eddie Edison: Incredible resilience displayed by the Senator! Maxwell McNally: Perhaps the idea that this is his final match is giving him the strength to continue on here Eddie. “Fast” Eddie Edison: But now what does Kudo have to do to put this match away? Maxwell McNally: To tell the truth, I have no idea, you know Phillips never was easy to put down in any match in his career, let alone his last time here in the ACW ring.
After both men manage to recover a bit, Kudo lifts Phillips up by his head, trying to go for a move, but instead, his opponent launches him out of the ring with a quick, unexpected tug. The Senator follows Yasuda to the outside, catching him from behind, and throwing him, face first into the guardrail. Kudo, in turn, hits an elbow to his opponent's head, but Phillips is able to throw him again with a vicious hip toss into the guardrail. Kudo bounces off the rail, stumbles back for a moment, steadies himself, trying to answer with a high kick, but somehow, the veteran manages to catch it on his shoulder, running foward, and hitting a devistating Capture Bomb variation onto the top of the rail, incidentally, directly in front of his guests' seats. The Senator picks Kudo back up, but catches a knee in the ribs, and is flapjacked onto the rail himself. Kudo steps back, charging foward with a front kick, but Phillips steps back from the move, which instead connects flush with Genchiro Tenryu's face!
“Fast” Eddie Edison: Daaaangeroussss! Oh no! That's not good! Not very good at all!
Tenryu squints, shaking his head, with an even more grumpy look on his face than usual, if that's even possible. Choshu and Chono attempt to hold him back, but Mr. Puroresu manages to pick up his full water bottle, and chuck it with high velocity at Kudo's head!
Maxwell McNally: We usually frown upon our fans tossing objects at our competitors, but I think that might be an exception right there. “Fast” Eddie Edison: Yeah, I'd just as soon have Tenryu do that, than sue us or something!

Kudo stumbles from the impact of the impact of the toss, right into the ring, to a bit of laughter from the crowd. The Senator is not short after in getting into the ring, grabbing his opponent from behind, and hammer throwing Yasuda into the ropes, going for a back body drop on the rebound, however, Kudo manages to flip over, landing over the ropes, safely on the apron, to applause from the stunned audience.
Maxwell McNally: What an exceptional feat of athleticism from Kudo Yasuda there, the timing on that landing had to have been near impossible to have mastered!
As he turns around, however, Phillips catches him in a brainbuster position, lifting him up...but Kudo manages to slip behind, going for a fireman carry...
Maxwell McNally: Kudo could be going for his Go 2 Sleep here!
Senator, though, somehow escapes the move, sliding back off the shoulders into a front facelock hold, then lifting Kudo up into a vertical suplex, but falling back, cradling the move into a Northern Lights Bomb, hitting Tenryu's 53 Years Old!
“Fast” Eddie Edison: Ha, that move's appropriate for Phillips, since he's pretty much that old himself!
Phillips next rolls his shoulder, rebounding off the ropes, and blasting Kudo with a powerful overhand lariat on the way back, pointing to the Revolution Warrior, Riki Choshu afterwards.
“Fast” Eddie Edison: LARIATOOOOOO! Maxwell McNally: Eddie, you always have to do that, don't you? Anyway, that's definately a tribute for Choshu, who established a style that has been dubbed "Lariat Pro Wrestling" by many who follow his matches.
Before Kudo can get back up, the Senator wraps his leg in a standing toe hold, spinning around, and reapplying the move, next, turning it over, transitioning to a stepover toehold facelock.
Maxwell McNally: And just as in his match last year here at Omega Effect, the Senator has paid tribute to all his guests in the match by using their moves, using both Dory Funk Jr's spinning toe hold, and Masahiro Chono's STF, interestingly enough, they seem to be fitting his overall strategy in wearing Kudo's striking power down. “Fast” Eddie Edison: And I might add that his STF is actually well executed, with real pressure applied to the leg, and with a facelock, instead of a lame choke, unlike a version used by the former champ of one of our competitors!
Kudo, though, does not easily tap out, making his way to a rope break. The Senator tries to lift his opponent back up with a front facelock, but Kudo explodes up, into a fireman carry again, going for the Go 2 Sleep...but the Senator ducks behind off his opponent's shoulders, right into a Filibuster, covering for the pin...
...1

...Kudo kicks out with authority!
Yasuda tries to get up with a double leg takedown, but once again, the Senator seems to be one step ahead at this point in the game, turning Kudo over and into his signature Backslide Pin...
...1
...2
....Kudo easily escapes the hold, rolling back, and leaping up into a front dropkick to the Senator's midsection. Before his opponent can recover, Kudo locks in a quick guillotine choke. The Senator struggles in the hold, slowly forcing the arm off his throat, and into a keylock of sorts, but is unable to do much more, due to the sustained bodyscissors. The two seem to be at a stalemate, the Senator unable to apply much force to his keylock, and Kudo unable to re-establish his guillotine, but neither man seems willing to give an inch, even to take one.
“Fast” Eddie Edison: Ha, looks like they're slowing down here..getting tired... Maxwell McNally: Can you blame them? Both men have been truly going all out without much stoppage throughout the entire match, and you have the gall to complain that they're slowing the pace down for a few seconds...you kids and your attention span... "Fast" Eddie Edison: Sure, sure, Max, you know I'm ribbing, all kidding aside, I for one could not keep up at that pace for five minutes, let alone for the amount of time that these two have carried it out to.
Both Kudo Yasuda and Steve Phillips slowly manouver for position out of the double submission, and while it seems that Phillips is able to gain the advantage when Kudo releases the bodyscissors, he instead is taken off guard with a powerful series of upwards knee lifts into the midsection, and lets go. Kudo rolls to the side, snapping up to his feet in a fighting stance, kicking with abandon at the Senator, stopping him from regaining a footing, stunning him in the middle of the ring. Phillips tries to regain his composure as Yasuda backs into a corner, but is unable to do so in time to avoid an explosive running front dropkick that sends him flying through the air about one third of the way across the ring, smashing back first into the turnbuckle, and falling face first into the mat.
"Fast" Eddie Edison: That's..daaaaangeroussss! Mr. KO just sent the Senator flying through the air with that dropkick!
Kudo crawls over on the mat, rolls the Senator over, and goes for a quick pin...
...1
...The Senator kicks out amazingly at one! Kudo goes for a middle kick to stop his opponent, but instead eats a rapid dragon screw. Phillips goes for a Victory Lock II, but Kudo grabs onto the bottom rope, holding on long enough for referee Jacob Jones to force a rope break. Phillips, though, only backs up long enough for Yasuda to sit up, running foward, blasting his opponent with a Penalty Kick to the face, dragging him over, and pinning him in the middle of the ring...
...1
...2
...Kudo kicks out! Kudo kips up behind his unaware opponent and without any warning, snaps his opponent head first into the mat with a blindingly fast Terrorana inverted hurricanrana, sending the Senator flying out of the ring after the impact! Kudo dashes off the opposite ropes, leaps off the top rope, and lands on the Senator with a tope con hilo that sends both men crashing into the guardrail. Jacob Jones once again declines to start the ringout count, as both competitors catch a breath, instead simply making sure that neither man is badly injured. That break doesn't last long, though, as Phillips lifts Kudo up with a double leg, cradles his opponent's neck, and runs foward, leaping up, and spinning into a Polarizer/Schwein on the outside! Kudo, though, rolls back to his feet on the headcrushing impact, and responds with a stalling KO Exploder, compacting the Senator's neck on the concrete floor!
Maxwell McNally: Absolutely incredible! Neither man has given an inch, unless you're speaking about their spines, which must be at least an inch shorter after all the head dropping impacts that they have each endured and given out!

Kudo and Senator both stumble their way into the ring, where on their knees, they immediatly trade open hand strikes to the face
SMACK!…....................SMACK!…................... SMACK!….................. SMACK!…..................... SMACK!…....................... SMACK!
Kudo manages to gain the advantage, standing up, lifting Phillips up from behind, locking in a half nelson, and then a single chickenwing armlock, and bridging back, completing the Yin-Yang Suplex into a pin...
...1
...2
...Phillips somehow, somewhere, finds the strength of will and body to escape the three count in time! As Kudo leans in, Phillips catches him with a go behind into a rear sleeper hold, turning in, and hitting an over the back backbreaker out of nowhere.
Maxwell McNally: The Senator could be going for the Victory Lock IV here, the same move he used to defeat Yasuda last time!
Kudo, though has different thoughs, managing to roll off of the impact before the Senator can hook in the submission, and kicking his kneeling opponent in the face. Kudo picks the Senator up, only to recieve a series of knees to the solar plexus, doubling the master of the knee strike over, rebounds off the ropes, and connects flush with the dreaded Partisan Kick! Phillips, though, does not go for the pin, instead, lifting Kudo up in a cobra clutch style stranglehold, turning around to deliver the devistating Stranglehold Brainbuster...but Kudo blocks the move, pulls back, and hits a close range Yakuza Knee! Kudo then runs off the ropes, going for a running Yakuza Knee, but Phillips somehow ducks the impact enough to catch his opponent over a shoulder, going for a rare Presidential Powerbomb, however, Yasuda is able to roll backwards, landing on his feet, going for another KO Exploder, squatting deep, and lifting his opponent up...but Phillips somehow manages to counter it into a high angle inside cradle...
...1

...Kudo kicks out, rolling the pin over into one of his own...

...The Senator kicks out, at the last millisecond! As both get back up to their feet, Kudo leaps up right into another Yakuza Knee, staggering Phillips, but not dropping him, getting him up into a fireman carry, spinning around, and tossing the Senator right into the path of a lightning knee strike to the chin, finally hitting the Go 2 Sleep! Kudo considers dragging the Senator out of the corner he landed in to cover for the pin...but instead does something else...
“Fast” Eddie Edison: Kudo Yasuda's been going for the Go 2 Sleep the entire match, but when he hits it...he doesn't pin? Maxwell McNally: Wait, Kudo's headed up to the opposite corner, what could he possibly be thinking of doing? “Fast” Eddie Edison: He's climbing out onto the apron, and staring down the Senator from all the way across? No way, nobody could possibly connect from that range, not with any accuracy, not in an ACW ring... Maxwell McNally: The Senator's recovering somewhat from that Go 2 Sleep, but he doesn't look all that aware of his surroundings, could this be it...oh no, Kudo's bracing himself here, pulling back as far as he can on the ropes, leaping up onto the top rope...and slingshotting foward across the length of the entire ring, connecting straight into the Senator's head with an incredible, see it to believe it corner to corner Yakuza Knee! “Fast” Eddie Edison: DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNGERRRRRRRROOOOOUUUUUUUUUUUUUSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!! Maxwell McNally: I can scarcely believe my two eyes on what they just witnessed! That was one of the most breathtaking moves I have seen in all my days...and Eddie, for Heaven's sake, take a breath before you pass out! “Fast” Eddie Edison: *Cough* *Urk* Max...hit...the...replay...on that, and...someone...get me water!
[[Replay]] Kudo Yasuda, after hitting the Go 2 Sleep, for some reason, instead of going for the pin, walks rapidly over to the opposite corner. He climbs outside of the ropes, onto the apron, and stalks his opponent as he rises slowly to a wobbly footing. The Senator seems to be somewhat out on his feet as he gets up, and does not seem to really notice his surroundings. However, Kudo certainly does, as he pulls back hard on the ropes...and slingshots up onto the top rope, the incredible momentum of the leap carrying him across the entire ring in the blink of an eye, as he twists his body into a missile style Yakuza Knee that connects with a thunderclap of an impact with the Senator's head, dropping him to the mat, and neither man moves after the move. [[/Replay]]
Kudo starts to crawl over, inch by inch, straining just enough with his battered and exhausted body to drop a single arm over his opponent for the cover...

...........3!
Phillip: Your winner, Mr. KO, YASUDA, KUDOOOOO!

“Fast” Eddie Edison: Kudo wins the match! Kudo wins the match! Kudo wins the match! Kudo wins the match! Maxwell McNally: And thus, ends the career of a legend. The Senator should have no regrets, however, over his loss. “Fast” Eddie Edison: Max, you're right there, that was an instant classic, one of the best matches I have ever had the ever lovin' privilege to have been able to have called! Now, if those medics could hurry up with that ice, I'd feel better... Maxwell McNally: The medics are already in the ring, applying ice to both men, who seem content to catch their breath on the mat, a good decision. “Fast” Eddie Edison: Ice for them? No, I wanted ice for my water, my throat feels like I swallowed a razor blade! I don't think I'm gonna be able to speak tomorrow after this show... Maxwell McNally: Well, if you'd just restrain yourself a bit, Eddie, I made at least three counts of "dangerous," one "lariato," and several top of the lung "yakuza knees" called. Oh well, it's your voice and not mine...
Meanwhile, in the ring, as a number of ringside attendants and medics revive the two competitors, Jacob Jones, catching a breath himself, walks over, and raises a visibly exhausted Kudo Yasuda's arm to the air, as Sensei Senzo Sakai claps, and with the help of two ringside workers, steps over the guardrail, and goes up into the ring. Kudo and his teacher bow to each other in respect, and Sakai smiles widely in pride for his prize pupil. As for Phillips, he manages to wake up with a medic breaking out an ammonium capsule under his nose, immediately placing a hand on a particualrly large welt on his head, ostensibly occuring from the spectacular corner to corner Yakuza Knee. The Senator slowly reaches his feet, refusing help, slowly making his way over to his opponent. Kudo and Phillips both stare each other down for a moment, before the Senator reaches out a hand, which is accepted by Yasuda in a vigorous shake, and Phillips raises his opponent's arm in the air, pointing to him in a show of respect in defeat.
Maxwell McNally: Now that's refreshing, no sneak attacks after the bell, no temper tantrums by the defeated wrestler, no continued stompings from the winner, no nonsense, and a show of respect and sportsmanship. If only others in our industry could emulate this standard... “Fast” Eddie Edison: Aww, that wouldn't be any fun! What'd wrestling be without *cough* heated blood feuds and violence galore?
At this point, the Senator reaches over to someone at ringside, taking a microphone...
The Senator: Whew. What a way to go out. With my history of blowing it on the big stage, it just figures that I'd lose my final match here at Omega Effect...but even so, I would not have it any other way. I always said that from day one, win, lose, or draw, I would go out here, and give my all in the ring. Kudo, I told you that you had not unleashed your full potential a month ago. Here tonight, I am not going to make such a comment. Tonight, the two of us fought each other in that ring, out of the ring, and we fought a match the likes of which will go down in the record books as the prime example of an ideal form of wrestling. Tonight, we provided an example for the rest of the world to follow. I do not call that a defeat. It may not equal tasting the sweet nectar of victory, but knowing that I will have left things better than they were before is victory enough for me. No, tonight, a longer lasting victory was forged, a victory for the ages, a worthy final stone in the legacy that I have built. Yes, what a way to go out, to end my active in ring career here in ACW! You pulled out the very best that I had left, Kudo, and with that, you gave me a note that I can proudly go out on, and for that, I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
The Senator pauses for a moment, hearing the cheers of his constituents and of the entire audience, wiping sweat and perhaps a bit of something else out of his eyes before continuing.
Senator: And that, yes that, my friends, is nothing....nothing but the truth.
The roar that comes from the fans then probably won’t be topped by anything else, this evening or any other.
Maxwell McNally: The ACW fans all on their feet, giving their respects to these two, and you have to believe that no one was disappointed with Senator's last match here in ACW. “Fast” Eddie Edison: It was beyond any expectations and hype! Maxwell McNally: There were only winners in this match Eddie, what a treat it is to witness the end of this great wrestler's active wrestling career at ACW.
The crowd is indeed all on their feet, albeit some of the younger kids on their dad's shoulders, but everyone is giving a standing ovation. The effect is overwhelming, as both Kudo and Senator walk towards each other and embrace after their hard fought match. Senator raises Kudo's arm as the fans are still cheering, but Kudo pulls away and raises Senator's arm instead. The two continue this show of respect a few more times before finally the crowd suddenly becomes almost 100% behind Senator, with chants of his name "SE-NA-TOR" building up to unbelievable levels in the ACW arena. Senator clutches his neck a bit, still feeling the effects of the match as Kudo realizes his place and rolls out of the ring, giving Senator the ring to himself as a final show of respect. Senator's eyes appear watery as emotions run high and the crowd continues to hold their adamant chants of "Senator."
Maxwell McNally: The ACW fans all chanting for the Senator in appreciation for everything he's done in ACW. “Fast” Eddie Edison: Yeah and they aren't throwing out any "one more match" chants, they're allowing him to bask in the glory of what he billed as his last match, and boy what a match it was! Maxwell McNally: A match to remember Eddie. One to remember...
The Senator takes in everything at once, in the center of the ring, the last time he will be standing as an active competitor for ACW, and the show start to fade to a break, ending with the dissipating chants of "Se-na-tor...Se-na-tor..."

RDK looks both ways and then runs after Kermit as they go up a hill and eventually get up onto a road....Kermit begins to start playing his banjo again.....a song breaks out...Kermit: Movin' right along in search of good times and good news, With good friends, you can't lose! RDK looks around as he follows Kermit walking up the highway amongst the cars....Randy: ...Brudah this could become a habit!RDK has his thumb out but no car is going to stop....Kermit: Opportunity knocked once, let's reach out and grab it!Randy: Yeaah!A car stops as Kermit has his thumb out and it is a pickup truck...the two ride in the back, full of hay.Kermit: Together we'll nab it!
Randy: We'll hitch-hike, bus, or yellow cab it! The truck hits a bump and the two fall out of the back....Kermit: Cab it?The scene flashes and it shows the two in a cab, Kermit continues to play the banjo....Randy/Kermit: We're Movin' right along!The cab stops at a gas station and asks for their fair, they don't have any money so they are kicked out.Randy: Foot-loose and fancy free!RDK looks pissed as they begin to walk again...Kermit: Getting there is half the fun! Come share it with me!Kermit turns back and smashes his banjo through the cab's window. The cab is in the store paying for gas. Kermit hotwires the cab and signals for RDK to get in. RDK jumps through the window and into the passenger seat. The scar speeds off as the cabby gets pissed and yells at them.....::THE NEXT DAY::. RDK and Kermit are out on the road again, and RDK is now driving....freshened up after his shower at a motel which they slept and scurried away from....Randy: We're Movin' right along!!!!

They are two towns away, with little gas left. RDK is at a fork in the road and does not know where to turn...Kermit: Movin' right along we found a life on the highway! Randy: Brudah, I don't know which way!Kermit: So trust my navigation!Kermit turns the wheel for RDK and they go to the left....Randy: California here we come, that pie-in-the-sky land!Kermit: We're really gonna go there? Palm trees and warm sand?Randy: Actually I can't afford it....Kermit: You can't Wha?Randy: ...Forget it...Somehow their path leads them through LA.....Randy/Kermit: Movin' right along, hey, L.A., where've you gone?

Kermit: Yeah! "Welcome" on the same sign that says "Come Back Again!"They have arrived, and pull in to the ACW arena....The bus drops them off as they slowly walk and the camera zooms out to show them walking into the arena....Randy/Kermit: Movin' right along Movin' right along Movin' right along Movin' right along......RDK has made it to his big match....but will he be able to overcome all?
Kermit could be a factor, but nobody even knows RDK is here yet...and the match is about to begin.....

Match 12: Loser Leaves ACW Match BK "The Hardcore Legend" London vs. The Macho Man RDK (Credit: AK/BK) Only two matches remain, does the crowd have enough stamina to see them through? Hell yes, this is ACW! Philip enters the ring, mic in hand.Philip: This match is a LOSER LEAVES ACW Match, the loser will have his contract terminated immediately after this contest ends. It is scheduled for one fall, making his way to the ring weighing in at 237 pounds, he hails from Brooklyn, New York, representing The Corporate Alliance, B-K London! The arena darkens and the sounds of Notorious B.I.G featuring Bob Marley's "Hold Ya Head" sounds throughout the arena.[Bob Marley] Woman hold her head and cry Cause her son had been shot down in the street and died
Woman hold her head and cry Cause her son had been shot down in the street and diedStrangely guitars kick in and the spotlight shines on the lead guitarist of Aerosmith, Joe Perry with a kick ass guitar solo before the rap kicks in.(Notorious BIG) When I die fuck it i wanna to go to hell cause im a piece of shit it aint hard to fucking tell it dont make sense going to heaven with the goodie goodies dressed in white, i like black timbs and black hoodies god would probley have me on some real strict shit no sleepin all day no geting my dick licked hanging with the goodie goodies loungin in the paradise fuck that shit i wanna tote guns and shoot dice all my life ive been considered as the worst lying to my mother even stealin out her purse crime after crime from drugs to extortion i know my mother wish she got a fucking abortionAnother kick ass guitar solo appears and now the spotlight shines on another famous guitarist by the name of Lenny Kravitz. He is absolutely tearing it up on the guitar and the crowd goes wild now as the duo of guitarists meet at the middle of the stage and start trading guitar solos before the next part plays.[Bob Marley] Woman hold her head and cry Cause her son had been shot down in the street and died
[Notorious BIG] I swear to God I just want to slit my wrists and end this bullshit Throw the Magnum to my head, threaten to pull shit And squeeze, until the beds, completely red I'm glad i'm dead, a worthless fuckin' buddha-head The stress is buildin' up, I can't, I can't believe suicide's on my fuckin' mind I want to leave, I swear to God I feel like death is fuckin' callin' me But naw you wouldn't understand You see its kinda like the crack did to Pookie, in New Jack Except when I cross over, there ain't no comin' back Should I die on the train track, like Remo in Beatstreet People at the funeral frontin' like they miss me My baby momma kissed me but she glad i'm gone She know me and her sister had somethin' goin' on I wonder if I died, would tears come to her eyes? Forgive me for my disrespect, forgive me for my liesThe two spotlights shut off and the entire arena is dark until the arena is illuminated by a bang, a BIG BANG. Red lights engulf the arena and through the stage comes Brooklyn MC Busta Rhymes, the man with the #1 album in the country, and the Queens MC Nas. The sick beat of "Don't Get Carried Away" sounds through the arena and the crowd starts cheering.[Busta Rhymes] Now I'm subtle, once I pick up my metal Put my foot on the pedal, ridin through every ghetto Analyze the shit I'm seein when I sip Amaretto A lot of bitches on the strip, struttin in they stilettos Then they wave and say hello, when my Lambo' is yellow Everything they got a jingle when they walk like ah-Jello See the niggaz on the corner and I never forget it And I never regret because I see how you get it Now because of you niggaz, I'm a hustler nigga 'Gnac guzzler nigga, rip your jugular nigga In the night I become the type to love when it's dark Cause when I pull up and park, is when I'm makin my mark See the fact's that I'm tryin to strive and capitalize in Start to max-a-mimize and b-build a ent-ter-prise And wh-while I'm stockin this bread, keep ah-stockin the lead And leave a permanent dot, on the top of your head
[Chorus: Busta Rhymes] And if you don't see it y'all niggaz can't fuck with our FLIPMODE MOVEMENT - bounce in your truck to us Y'ALL GET STUPID - don't try to fuck with us Because you will get carried away, yeah you'll get carried away
[Nas] Ill Will, Flip-mooode! I'm the enigma, there is none harder, smarter Martyr, Godfather, my interest, your departure Pardon Dre this beat is a monster, catchy Like sleepin under open windows that's drafty Then wakin up my throat scratchy, that's how I spit it nasty They short, a few inches North of a dwarf My flow's Murcielago, ghostin them narcos Toast in the ways of the original Pablos Still a pyramid architect, mix liquors like a chemist Killer lyricist, poetical tyrant Sneaker store terrorist, Mt. Everest I climbed it Heat is drawn, no creepin on me whenever I'm bent My mind spray, my nine spray And freak styles like 3000 Andre To keep pilin, keep pushin them drops Nas, runnin with hot Busta Bust, we don't stopAs they continue to rap, BK London walks out on the stage and greets both Nas and Busta Rhymes with pounds before making his way down to the ring. Nas and Busta follow him, continue rapping to the melodic beat and three finally get in the ring. As the beat ceases, a huge pyro bursts from the stage and London says thanks and goodbye to both Nas and Busta Rhymes as they head to the back.BK: Now can I put on a show or what? I mean....this was fucking incredible. But onto business tonight, if RDK is backstage - which I'm sure he isn't - you have absolutely 10 seconds to get down to the ring or you WILL forfeit the match and be fired. 10 . . 9 . . 8 . . 7 . . 6 . . 5 . . 4 . . 3 . . 2 . . 1- BK is about to yell “YOU’RE FIRED!! into the mic, but before he can do so, another, loud yell overtakes him…[/i] ??: OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH YEAH! The crowd goes absolutely apeshit, and BK’s face turns as pale as that of an African-american possibly can. The lights dim, and the crowd just keeps on yelling until the lights rise and -
Yes, they’re back. The Village People are on the stage, and there are no prizes whatsoever for guessing what they’re going to perform.Village People: Body...wanna feel my body? Body...such a thrill my body Body...wanna touch my body? Body...it's too much my body Check it out my body, body! Don't you doubt my body, body. Talkin' bout my body, body, check it out my body...The dry ice machine starts to belch smoke. Anyone getting déjà vu yet?...Village People: Every man wants to be a macho macho man, To have the kind of body, always in demand... Jogging in the mornings, go man go…A figure is becoming visible in the back…Village People: Works out in the health spa, muscles glow! You can best believe that, he's a macho man! Ready to get down with, anyone he can! Hey, Hey! Hey! Hey! HEY!OoOoh Yeah Brudahs!!!The crowd go nuts again when they hear RDK once shout his trade mark catch phrase, and everyone joins in the chorus:Crowd: Macho Macho Man!!!!RDK makes his way down the ramp, appearing from the smoke, he has a mic in hand and is wearing his signature sunglasses. And he’s not alone, for he is accompanied by none other than his good friend Kermit (for those of you of a technically minded nature and who don’t mind having the illusion dented, Kermit is puppeteered by a man in an all-black slimline suit, his face covered by a dark balaclava. It’s surprisingly effective).
So anyway, Randy and Kermit approach the ring…Randy: Macho Man Yeah!!!'
Crowd: We've got to be, a Macho Man!Randy makes it to the ring steps.Randy: Everybody Now! Crowd/Village People/Referee/Philip/: MACHO MACHO MAN YEAH!
Randy: You all gotta be a Macho!! See that hair on my chest?
Crowd: OoOoh Yeah!!!!!As RDK enters the ring, the crowd is already starting to chant “Na Na Naaaa Na” at BK. The Hardcore legend is furious, and not about to let RDK clear his breath; he charges him down and clotheslines him as the referee calls for the bell.Bell Rings.
