OTA Segment: Caution, Bastards at Work (Credit: ??)

Shortly before Warfare airs…

The roads around the ACW Arena are busy with typical Monday-night traffic. Buses are arriving from the port terminal, disgorging great trails of happy fans out front near the main doors, and to the rear, cars belonging to superstars, staff and crew would normally be rolling through the vehicle gates to the priority parking arena up close to the rear entrance.

Tonight, however, the road leading around to that side of the building is blocked. An impressive array of traffic cones, signs and guardrailing has been erected, and the air is thick with the sound of a concrete-breaker which shakes the body of the workman using it. Nearby, a second workman is indicating an alternative route to arriving cars, gesturing for them to drive around to the opposite side and the secondary parking lot.

Site Worker #1: This way please ladies and gents… we’ve got a broken water main here, sorry for the inconvenience. Move along, please, move along…

The vehicles follow the instructions; it’s only a minor inconvenience and they think nothing of it. Once the queue has cleared, the workman on sentry duty strolls over to his colleague, checking his watch.

Site Worker #1: Having fun with that, bro?

Site Worker #2: Yeah, it’s a right laugh this. Shame we can’t dig nuffin’ up proper like.

Site Worker #1: Well, you can’t have everything. Ten more minutes, and I think everybody should be in, then we move to phase 2.

Site Worker #2: Heh heh heh. More like “number 2”, right?

Their banter is interrupted by a loud, obnoxious horn, and an even more obnoxious voice.

??: You there! Get this stuff out of the way!

The first worker walks over to where a massive penis-substitute of a limousine is parked up, the rear window wound down.

Site Worker #1: I’m sorry, sir, but this access is closed this evening.

??: Closed? Rubbish. You’re only working to one side. Do you know who I am?

Stephan Russo glares out of the limo. The worker, his face partly obscured by a dust mask, nods.

Site Worker #1: I do apologise, Mr. Co-Chairman. But I strongly suggest-

Russo: I don’t have time for this. Get this road clear, or I’ll make sure you don’t get paid a cent for your work. Understand?

The worker says nothing, but moves around to the front of the vehicle and pushes aside the protective barriers. There is just about enough room for the limo to squeeze past, and Russo already has his window rolled up again before he passes the two men by. The limo rounds the corner and disappears.

Site Worker #2: Bugger, that’s not part of the plan.

Site Worker #1: No, but we’re not stopping because of it. Guy deserves what he gets if he’s going to be a wanker. Let’s give it a few minutes, and then we can get things ready.

There is a thumping sound from nearby. The two men glance over at a large white van, which seems to be rocking very slightly, as if something within is moving.

Site Worker #2: This is going to be good. I ‘ope the TiVo tapes it all so we can watch when we get back…

The wind whips around, rattling the metal “diversion” signs and muffling the somewhat suspicious laughter.

To be continued…

Segment: Pep talk (Credit: RSX3)

In the back, we see the three members of RSX3, getting fired up for tonight… Steele and Train, to be more specific, because XS3 isn't on the card tonight. Nonetheless, Train is seen pounding his fists together in preparation for his triple threat match.

XS3: All right, I'm going to level with you guys for a second here. I'm not here to sugarcoat anything or preach to you. Tonight, I'm going to tell it like it is: Train, it's all up to you to provide the Road Steelers with the advantage going into Heatwave. Since we all know Hatchet is going down, it's time to focus on the two important issues at hand.

XS3 then turns to Train and jabs him in the chest with his finger.

XS3: Train, we're counting on you to whoop some ass tonight. It doesn't matter if you have to beat the Welsh Douchebag or the more competent half of "Gee Wiz, We Suck" Unit.

Train: Psh, I think it will be easy. They don't stand a chance against me. I mean, I'm the Train, and I'm going to go out there and show those assholes why The Road Steelers will take the tag titles at Heatwave.

XS3: Atta boy, I know you can do it.

XS3 then turns his attention to Steele.

XS3: And Steele, be on your best guard tonight. OCW tends to wander around in mass orgies so if you're outnumbered, Train and I will do what we can to help you out.

Steele: I don't need no help man. Da' time is windin' down and I got Cheng's number, point blank period. OCW can get everybody in ACW on dey' side... it's still not stoppin' me from becomin' International Champion come Heatwave, and beatin' his ass tonight![/color]

XS3: That's it! That's the fire I've been talking about, ever since we had that match. I knew that THIS Jake Steele would be ready for war. Now then, just for good measure, who in the fuck are we?

Train and Steele: THE ROAD STEELERS!

XS3: And what the fuck are we always doing?

Train and Steele: STEALING THE SHOW!

XS3: Go out there and dominate the world, you crazy bastards.

Train gives a nod, beaming with confidence, before turning and leaving the locker room with Steele following him. XS3 gives them a thumbs up for good luck and they return the gesture before leaving.

Fade.

[Segment] Prepare? Bah!
[Credit] Bryce

The cameras open up at the empty locker room of an ACW Superstar, it's rather moderately sized with a several objects occupying the room, most notably a very generously sized wardrobe and a wall length mirror situated on adjacent walls. However, the locker room doesn't stay vacant for long, as the door handle begins to slowly move downwards. The door opens swiftly and comes to rest against a door stop (no doubt provided by ACW Management, tired of dented walls and broken doors) before the owner of the locker room steps into the room.

It's Bryce.

In his usual casual attire with a sports bag slung over his shoulder he glances around the room before grabbing a hold of the bag and slinging it on to the floor. He turns, shutting the door before heading towards the wardrobe. He looks as though he is going to open it, though decides against it. Instead Bryce pulls off his top and throws it on top of a nearby chair; he then stands in front of the mirror. He looks at it closely before relaxing; a smirk appears on his face. He poses, flexing his abdominal muscles before declaring "They may as well just call me The Epitome of Perfection".

Bryce chuckles and continues to admire his toned body until he notices a scratching noise. He turns around and listens, Bryce approaches his wardrobe. He puts his ear next to the door, the scratching noise immediately stops but is replaced with a faint "Shoosh!". Bryce frowns before opening the door to reveal he has company. Sitting inside the wardrobe are two men; a rather overweight one with glasses and an afro who's clutching a microphone, and a second rather scrawny one who is holding a large camera.

Bryce: Who the hell are you two?! Guys, I know I'm the hottest thing to ever hit ACW, but pleeease....was this really necessary just to get a glimpse of The Epitome of Athleticism?

Bryce backs off with his smirk re-appearing, the two men stumble up to their feet with the larger man not taking kindly to Bryce's reaction.

Kevin: Huh?! I'm not a fan, I'm Kevin "The Internet" Anderson - ACW's Backstage Interviewer!

Bryce chuckles at Kevin's protests, while the camera man tries to keep out of it.

Bryce: Same difference. So, I'm guessing you want to know just how, I, became the greatest superstar to grace this industry today? Wel-

Kevin interrupts at his own peril.

Kevin: No, not particularly, I was wandering more about how you felt going into your match tonight against Danny Richards...

Bryce looks bewildered as if Kevin is speaking a foreign language.

Bryce: Who?

Kevin: You know...your opponent in your match tonight - you do know you have a match right?!

From the look on Bryce's face the answer would be no.

Bryce: Oh...OH! THAT DANNY RICHARDS! Sorry, I was thinking of the wrong person. *Bryce pauses to compose himself* Well, quite simply put; it doesn't matter who management put against me because the simple fact is no one can beat The Epitome of Athleticism!

Kevin: Very well elaborated there, Bryce.

Bryce narrows his eyes at Kevin, not appreciating the sarcasm.

Kevin: So what would you say Richards's main weaknesses are? What advantages do you have over him?

Bryce stalls before answering, knowing he's going to have to bullshit his way out of this expertly.

Bryce: What advantages do I have over him? You should be asking what advantages don't I have over him! I mean come on, just look at me compared to him - I'm much more talented, much better looking and athleticism, well I don't think he even knows what it is let alone be able to claim he has any!

Bryce sighs a breath of relief, almost begging for no more questions.

Kevin [Rolling his eyes]: I'm sure your "better looks" will help you out there in the ring. As we saw in your match with Kudo you like to steal your opponents moves and use them yourself; what move will you be looking to pull off from Richards's repertoire against him?

Kevin grins as Bryce looks to have been trapped, he panics trying to think of suitable reply that won't show him to be unprepared.

Bryce: First of all, I don't steal my opponent's moves; I show them how they should be done. Secondly, if I tell you which move I plan to show Richards how to use, then he'll know to watch out for it then won't he!

Kevin screws his nose up as Bryce looks elated at being able to get out of the situation.

Kevin: Fair point. Well that's all I wanted to ask, so well, good luck in your match tonight I guess.

Bryce's smirk re-appears. As he replies he begins to turn away heading towards the door.

Bryce: Ha! Luck?! Who needs luck when you’re The Epitome of Athleticism!

The camera follows Bryce his heads towards the door, as he leaves the room the camera slowly fades to black signalling the end of the segment.

Segment: Insult To Injury
(Credit: Scott Andrews)

What the hell does Chambers want from Scott?

Well, yes, he put his boss’ business out of action and everything was blamed on him, but come on, it’s not Scott’s fault the boss couldn’t handle what he had created. And now, from the ashes of the destruction have risen Chambers and the Brothers Grimm with the sole purpose to take away from Scott his livelihood in wrestling in the same way their jobs were taken from them.

It is a bit pity, but hey, some people are bitter. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out Zero’s beef though; a jealous, bitter, attention whore who thinks he deserves what he didn’t earn; a shot at the World Champion. And now because of what Zero did to him last week, Scott has been examined by doctors and sits in Gingerdude’s office to await the results.

Scott: So what’s the haps, Ginge? Am I good to go?

Gingerdude:[/color] You’d do well not to call me that name. As for your results, which I have just read through, it seems you are not medically cleared to wrestle - - -

The crowd boo in both disappointment and anger.

Gingerdude:[/color] - - - tonight or for 3 weeks from today, which means no Heatwave match.

The crowd are absolutely livid at the results of Zero and the others beatdown.

Scott: But I feel fine!

Gingerdude: You have mild concussion, Scott, and any unnecessary damage to your skull could be dangerous. I’m not putting one of my top stars, let alone my top ACW star, in danger of any further injury. You will not wrestle tonight, Scott and that is final.

Scott doesn’t take this news too well.

Scott: This is bullshit, Ginger, I feel completely fine! Just let me have at Zero tonight!

Gingerdude: What don’t you understand about what I’ve just told you, Scott? Now, go home and rest.

Scott: This is ridiculous. Y’know what? I am outta here.

Scott turns and walks out the door in a state of complete anger, no matter how subtle it may seem on the outside. Because on the inside, it’s boiling hot.

Fade Out.

Segment: Desire to be the Best (Credit: BK London)

Since Seven Deadly Sins, BK London has had a bit of a problem with The Senator. Well, since The Senator entered ACW pretty much they had problems, but none on a stage as big as this one. None as direct of an encounter as the one they're going to have going into Heatwave this weekend.

Seven Deadly Sins, BK London was engaged in a match with the then champion, Fallen Souls. It was under Russo's rules, a match BK London couldn't lose because he had the Chairman in his back pocket. However, The Senator raced down to the ring to settle a previous score with Co-Chairman Stephan Russo. Upon doing that, Senator decided to hit BK London with a major Partisan Kick to the head - almost costing him the match.

The kick that was heard around the world. The kick that started this entire mess.

As the cameras came back to the arena, BK London was already sitting in the ring on a steel chair. The lights were dimmed down around him, and there was a spotlight shining on him in the middle of the ring. This wouldn't be the first time he has done a promo like this, but he has done one before each of the big moments in his career.

BK London: For some reason, I am being portrayed as the bad guy in this situation. For some reason, the crowd has turned against me and turned to their loving Senator - and why? Well that's a very good question, because I don't quite understand myself. I don't understand how the crowd can hate me with such a passion for what I did to The Senator last week, and a few shows before, when...when this was all his fault. Need I remind you people that HE interfered in MY match at Seven Deadly Sins. I didn't cost him his Seven Deadly Sins Elimination Match - hell, I couldn't give two shits about that match - but he decided to get involved in mine. He decided to get involved in my business, he hit the first move, he scored the first blow and all I did was retaliate. Stephan Russo and I recruited 3 of the brightest stars in ACW, soon to be 2, to create a new stable and we decided that The Senator had to pay for sticking his nose where it doesn't belong. And isn't it just like a republican to get involved in something they shouldn't be involved in? Yet.... I'm the bad man in this situation.

BK London questions the integrity of this audience as he continues to sit in the middle of the ring. Questioning their hearts and motives, using quite a bit of logic.

BK London: So then, thanks to the wonderful Co-Chairman Gingerdude, I get put into a match against The Senator - with my OCW Championship on the line. What did Mr. Phillips do to earn this match? Nothing. Did he beat anyone? No. Did he win a No.1 Contenders match? Nah. He was simply just awarded a championship match. So when it came to the actual encounter, I wasn't just going to waste a title shot - put my title in jeoprady for someone who didn't earn it? So I DQ'd myself. Now I admit, that wasn't one of the finest moments - but I let him know where he stood in this situation.

Quite a few insults are thrown to BK London in the ring with this brief pause, but he doesn't pay them any mind.

BK London: Fast forward to last week Thursday, The Senator decides to attack me from behind during a masterful promo I was cutting . So I take the initiative and I challenge him to a match at Heatwave. He wants the OCW title so much? Fine. I'll put it on the line, if he really wants to be beaten that bad - sure, why not? He goes to Chairman Gingerdude, and decides to add a bit of a stipulation of his own. That there will be no outside interference, or no disqualifications in this match. If so....I will lose my OCW Championship.

London chuckles a bit after that statement as the crowd pops a bit, and you can tell that it's not a genuine funny moment for the World Champion.

BK London: So this puts me in quite a situation. Everyone has been wondering, how am I going to get out of this mess? How am I going to walk out with the OCW Championship, without the aid of my OCW peeps? Well, I'm going to do exactly what I do best: I am going to wrestle. You see, The Senator has dubbed himself - quite selfishly might I add - as the best technical wrestler to walk into ACW. I will challenge him for that very title come Heatwave when I step into the ring with him, one on one. Everyone talks about The Senator's classic matches against Kudo Yasuda. Everyone is dubbing The Senator versus Dan White as Match of the Year already, when they have yet to put the man who has done it all in ACW on the ballot. I've won every championship there is to win, I've excelled at everything put in front of me and stole the show in the process. I have beaten more people and had more matches than anyone in ACW history and yet I'm still looked over as the best wrestler in ACW.

BK London is growing angrier and angrier as this promo goes on, and the cameras begin to close in on the face of the champ.

BK London: The most insulting quote I've heard in the back - the one that rips me to shreds, was said by YOUR own Chaiman - not mine. My Chairman, Stephan Russo, sees my talent and sees that I am the best thing to come through ACW in a long time. But Chairman Gingerdude, after Omega Effect II - two years ago - he said to me, "You're good, but you're no Steve Phillips". Dammit, I am better than Steve Phillips! I am the best wrestler in ACW TODAY - bar none! Senator, whether I pin you in the middle of this ring, make you submit, or I just knock your lights out, I WILL leave one lasting impression in this ring. And that is, that BK London is BETTER WRESTLER than Steve Phillips! And then, and only then, I will put all the arguments to rest and show the world that BK London is simply, the best.

The sound of the mic dropping down to the mat is the last thing heard, before BK London gets up from his seat and walks out of the ring. There's no theme music played, no playing to the crowd, BK London plans to cut all the crap come this weekend at Heatwave and bring his A-game to prove once again that he is the best.

Match 1: Bryce vs. Danny Richards (Credit: Zero)

BRYCE
Height: 5' 11"
Weight: 210 lbs.
Hometown: Palo Alto, California
-------------------------------------------------------
DANNY RICHARDS
Height: 6' 5"
Weight: 220 lbs.
Hometown: Blackpool, England

Entrances: The first man to make his way out to the ring is the newcomer to ACW, Bryce. "Of One Blood" by Shadows Fall plays over the audio system and the cocky rookie makes his way down the stage and into the ring, awaiting his opponent. As "2+2=5" by Radiohead starts playing, the former ACW superstar Danny Richards makes his way out to the stage with some cheers, and a little bit of jeers as well. Richards flips his hood up over his face and walks right on down to the ring. As he slides in and removes his jacket, the referee calls for the opening bell.

Ding Ding Ding

Match Beginning: The two both come out strong, but the bigger Danny Richards gets in the drivers seat first. Quickly he gets Bryce double over with a fast toe kick. The action is then stuck into the corner where Richards begins with mounted punches, getting up to 10 with the crowd counting along. Danny goes to whip Bryce out from the corner, but then quickly pulls him back before lifting him up like a flapjack and guillotining him onto the top turnbuckle. As Richards picks Bryce up, he pulls him towards the middle of the ring, hitting a swinging neckbreaker and then running to the ropes and crashing down with an elbow into Bryce's chest.

Middle: With Richards still in control, Bryce looks to take over. But that is easier said than done. As Bryce tried taking advantage of an open opportunity - he grabs Richards arm and tries to pull him down into an armbar. But quickly, Richards spins himself around and gets Bryce into a position where he can knee his opponent right in the stomach. He shoves Bryce inbetween his thighs and tries to lift him looking for The Richards Clash -- but Bryce isn't going to allow that. He shifts his momentum to reverse the attempt right into a backdrop! As Richards quickly returns to his feet holding his back in pain, Bryce spins himself, kicking Richards with the back of his heel - also known as the Flash of Brilliance.

Match Ending: With Bryce finding that opening that he needed, he has had some time to plan his attacks. Bryce begins to hit some knife edged chops on Richards, backing him up into the corner. Slap! Wooo! Slap! Woooo! After reddening Danny Richards chest, Bryce follows up with some forearm shots before backing off and leaping up, hitting a drop kick. Bryce jumps to his feet, posing to the unsatisfied crowd which boos him instead of praising. As Bryce turns around, Danny grabs him by the tights and yanks him forward, causing him to crash head first into the top turnbuckle! He quickly pulls Bryce to his feet and looks to end this with a Richards Bomb, but just as he lifts him to his shoulders, Bryce breaks the hold of his arms and drops down, nailing The Equalizer, a very powerful spike DDT! Bryce rolls Richards long legs up, folding his body like an accordion, pinning his legs down and as the referee begins to count, Bryce lifts his legs up to the second rope to gain momentum, which works to favor, barely pulling off the 3 count.

Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding

Match Winner by pinfall: Bryce

Segment: Can I Haz TLC Sammich? (Credit: THE ROAD STEELERS!)

We fade into the ACW arena but nobody is there. All the chairs are set up in the crowd and various crew members are at ringside getting some last minutes things put up before the show starts. Inside the ring there is a ladder set up and next to it stands Thunder Train and Jake Steele, The Road Steelers. Steele seems to be explaining something to Train about the ladder. Lets get closer and listen in.

Jake Steele: ...And dat's how you 'spose to climb a ladder. Shit can't be dat hard, it's all in ya' head.[/color]

Thunder Train: WHAT! I'VE TOLD YOU! I CAN'T CLIMB LADDERS! I NEEDED A CHERRY PICKER FOR MY LAST LADDER MATCH!

Jake Steele: IT'S ALL IN YA' HEAD DAMNIT! WATCH ME![/color]

Steele motions for Train to move and Train does so. Steele then jumps up on the ladder a bit then climbs to the top extremely fast. He waves at Train down below who has a shocked look on his face at the speed Steele did that. Steele then jumps down and makes a thunderous crash, landing on his feet.

Jake Steele: Easy. Now you gonna try it. [/color]

Thunder Train: Umm....I guess I could...Here goes nothing...

Train slowly walks up to the ladder. He looks up and gulps. He grasps the ladder with both hands then takes a step. Alls well right now...Until he puts on the second foot. Instantly the step snaps under the weight. Steele lets out a chuckle and puts his hand in front of his mouth to hide it. Train looks at him with an "I told you so" expression.

Thunder Train: I told you so!

Jake Steele: Shit, I got a idea. I'mma climb, and put my weight down, thus lettin' you climb up easier.[/color]

Thunder Train: That makes....no sense...but I guess it couldn't hurt to try!

Jake Steele: Come on dawg... think about it, would I ever do anything to hurt you? Ya' like my brotha' from anotha' motha' my dude.[/color]

Thunder Train: You hit me with the Right In Yo Face before Omega Effect 4....

Jake Steele: Dat' shit was like 50 years ago nigga. Time for a new start.[/COLOR]

Thunder Train: Ugh...whatever...

Steele goes to the opposite side of the ladder and climbs to the top of the ladder. He reaches down the other side and holds his arms down for Train. Train grabs his arms and begins to move up the ladder with ease. However, Steele has a look of immense pain on his face and doesn't know how much more he can hang on. Train gets to eye level with Steele then Steele lets go and falls off. Train gets worried and has every right to be as the ladder begins to crack. Then in an instant it snaps in half, sending Train through the mat. The crew members stop and look in as Steele lays on one side of the ring while a ladder is destroyed in 2 pieces as well. Train lays in a corner under the ring. Steele begins to stir and looks over toward the hole.

Jake Steele: T...T-Train....I got an idea...[/color]

Thunder Train *From under the mat*: What's that Jake?....

Jake Steele: At heatwave... let me climb da' ladder...[/color]

Thunder Train: Good...idea....

Crew members jump into the ring and help the two men up. They remove the ladder and pull Train out from under the mat. They load the men onto stretchers, even though they seem to have little to no injuries. One thing is for sure, this will be one very interesting TLC match...

Fade to Black.

The Unexplained Absence - Part two. Credit: James Murphy.

Date: June 29th.
Time: 4.37AM.
Location: In a club in downtown New York.

This was it...after having been led to this club for half an hour. They arrived, and after that. Murphy didn't see the man, nor the two girls for the rest of the night. he was left on his own, drinking the same type of beer as he had ben drinking in the bar earlier on. It was just a damn sight noisier here.

Murphy couldn't help but think back to what he thought earlier. That if he had made a bigger impact and had been more noticed in his first few weeks, then this wouldn't be happening. He would be the talk of the town, everyone would want to be with him and spend time with him. Murphy had joined ACW to make an impact and be noticed, but it wasn't happening, not at all. He had failed to make an impact and now he was suffering the consequences, he was a nobody. That was the end of it. No questions asked it was the stone cold truth.

Murphy’s mind began to wander, what if? He would think. What if I left, went totally off of the radar for a prolonged period of time? Then decided to return at a select moment to make a much, much bigger impact….

“Hey man…”

But what could he do? This would take some serious thought and would probably have some harsh implications for himself and everyone else around him who were relying on him, they weren’t relying on him a lot but they were still relying on him, could he let them down?

“Dude?…”

That was it, Murphy had to go, he was tired, worn out and not thinking straight, as was evident for what he was dreaming of. It wouldn’t happen…it couldn’t happen.

“Don’t fucking ignore me man.…”

Murphy turned to look, caught unaware by the man standing there, a total stranger.

“Hey you’re James Murphy, from that wrestling thing, aren’t you?…”

“Yeah that’s me…What can I do for you?…”

Murphy took pride that someone actually recognised him…

“Well I was wondering…wanna buy some Ecstasy? You’re looking pretty tense you could do with loosening up a bit.…”

“No thanks.…”

“Why not? Is my shit not good enough for you? The big movie star?…”

“I’m a wrestler and no I just don’t do drugs, now I’m gonna leave, have a good night,…”

Murphy stood up and walked straight across the dancefloor and out of the single door to the club. The cold air hit him instantly it was refreshing. As he walked forward Murphy heard the door open again and thought nothing of it. But suddenly Murphy felt a large blunt object across his head, instantly he crumpled to the road below him. He recognised the voice of the attacker, who continued to “make a point”. It was the man Murphy had been speaking to only seconds before. Murphy then faded out of consciousness on the road on a cold New York night.

FADE.

Match 2: Silencio vs. ANTHRAX w/Danny Mainer

Match will be posted shortly.

[Alicia "Atomic" Kitsune]

Segment: Step Up or Step Out (Credit: OCW - BK London, Henry McKaye, A.C. Evans, Jake Cheng)

It hasn't exactly been the best week for OCW, well - not the best week as far as The Debasers go. Last Monday on Warfare, in what was expected to be a easy match - Henry McKaye lost to Wayde Russler. The following show, on Thursday Night Meltdown, in a Triple Threat Match with the Entertainment Championship on the line - AC Evans failed to bring the Entertainment Championship to OCW. But what makes matters worse, is that once again they were on the losing end to Wayde Russler.

It was far from something BK London would stand for, losing twice to the same man in the same week. It made both Henry McKaye and AC Evans look bad, but more importantly, it made OCW look bad. Less than a month since they formed, and they were already being taken down by some chump.

AC Evans and Henry McKaye were called to the OCW HQ early in the day, where BK London and Stephan Russo would announce their punishment for such terrible performances over the past week. Once BK London got the wind of AC Evans' loss over the weekend - he and Russo decided they had to take quick and decisive action.

The Debasers sat in front of Russo's desk, where behind the large oak frame was the OCW Heavyweight Champion and Chairman Russo himself. It was like junior high school all over again, being called to the principal's office for doing something wrong, but this would be a lot worse.

BK London: I can't even begin...

BK London pauses.

BK London: How could you..

BK London pauses once again.

BK London: ...Wayde Russl-

BK London pauses once more, holding his tongue so he doesn't lash out on his OCW members. He then turns to Stephan Russo in a rage.

BK London: You know what Russ, I can't do this. I have a match tonight, I can't even lose my concentration, so just handle it...handle this for me...

BK London storms out of main office and heads to the back room, while AC Evans and Henry McKaye aren't exactly pleased with how BK London is acting in this situation. If anything, THEY should be mad...

Stephan Russo: Well my friends, we aren't happy with what happened last week - with two straight losses to Wayde Russler, so BK London and I thought long and hard about this decisi-

Suddenly, from the back room BK London storms into the main office of Chairman Russo where he yells down at the two wrestlers.

BK London: We thought long and hard about this decisiion to punish you both because there is NO WAY IN HELL, we're going to allow our credibility as the top stable to be compromised because you two can't win a match! That's it! I'm done!

BK London storms off into the bathroom.

Stephan Russo: ...yes, well, he's right. Our stable is supposed to be strong, our stable is supposed to be powerful, and to lose to Wayde Russler - a man who has less in-ring experience than both of you is simply-

The champ storms out of the bathroom, interjecting once more.

BK London: - simply unacceptable! Do you have any idea of how you two made us look? Huh? Do you?! We look like a couple of scrubs now! At least Jake managed to redeem us last Thursday by defending his title against Kudo successfully, but you two...you..you..y-AARRGHH!

BK London storms away from the scene, and McKaye gets ready to say a few words of his own before Russo stops him by placing one finger up. Seconds later, a door slams from afar - and BK London's interjections are over.

Stephan Russo: Go ahead.

Henry McKaye: Can you just get on with this punishment?

Stephan Russo: We have decided, that one of you must go. Now while AC Evans has managed to pick up a win over XS3 last week, and you McKaye haven't picked up a win in recent memory - you do have a lot more valued experience in the ring than Evans does, so there's only one way to settle this. For Heatwave, I have booked you two in a match against one another - in which not only with the loser be kicked out of OCW - but the loser WILL be fired.

Bombshell.

Both McKaye and Evans look at one another after Russo drops it on them, and for the first time - they stare at each other not as tag team partners anymore, but opponents. McKaye worked hard to recruit Evans into OCW, and it now seems he'll have to beat him to retain his job.

Just then Jake Cheng strolls into the office to see the stare down occurring and looks over to the co-Chairman

Jake: What did I miss?

Fade Out.

Segment: Retribution
(Credit: Scott Andrews/Zero)

It was an easy answer to a dumb question; why wouldn’t Jay Zero, Chambers and the Brothers Grimm be proud of themselves for last week’s attack on Scott Andrews after the 6-Man Main Event? They got their half of the job done, though at a cost. And after outnumbering Scott for a second time the group had reason to celebrate. Their plan was going just how they envisioned it.

In the arena, the fans await a sighting of any of the members of the now infamous anti-Scott Andrews movement and as they turn their eyes to the Alphatron, “Unbroken [Hotel Baby]” begins to play across the audio system. The fans vocally display their utmost hate for the four men who emerge from the curtains; Hack, Slash, Joseph Chambers, and Jay Zero. Jay walks out looking proud of himself, as does Chambers, and the smug look on his face turns to maniacal laughter and he slaps Hack and Slash on the back. The two beasts let out a loud war cry as the foursome near the ring.

McNally: I don’t know about you folks, but I think the actions of these men over the past few weeks has been despicable! Trying to take out the most deserving man in this company before he even gets a shot at the champion is a cowardly move especially with the numbers they have...

Edison: What more can they possibly want? They delivered a vital blow to Scott Andrews on Meltdown which is going to have him miss the PPV!

The four men enter the ring and Chambers and Zero are given microphones. The crowds boos are gradually becoming louder as the music fades. Zero and Chambers smirk and let the crowd express their opinions for a few more seconds before butting in.

Chambers: I can see you people have no sympathy for people like us...but to be honest, we have what we want and Scott Andrews, well, doesn’t. Hahaha!


The crowd are even more at their throats.

Zero :: And NOOOW! Heh -- now that I've taken Scotty Boy out of his own game, it looks like I've done exactly what I've wanted! Exactly what I SAID I would! I made an impact! And now that I've done just what you've all wanted me to do I believe it is ONLY fair, that with Scott Andrews out of the World Title contention -- that Jay Zero finally receives his rightful shot -- AND, your love!

[/color][/center]

Chambers chuckles; the attack on Scott lingers in his mind as he speaks for a second time.

Chambers: See, you people can learn from people like us; we are successful and at the top of the world. Most of you look like you’re mum’s your sister, so I can’t blame you for having the mental capacity of a cucumber and only being able to get a job at Walmart - - -

Insert Cheap Heel Heat Here.

Chambers: - - - but in seeing what we have already accomplished in the short time we’ve been here you can be inspired to aspire to what we are.

Zero :: But ya see -- these people don't know what it's like! They don't know how HARD you work, and how much effort you put into making them love you! And for what? FOR NOTHING! These people don't care, because THEY don't know what it's like! They can only dream of being somebody like me and coming out to this ring night in and night out! I can do whatever it is they tell me to do -- and still, get nothing back from them! These people haven't respected me! And these people haven't answered! So putting Mr. Chambers aside! Putting Brothers Grimm aside! I finally want my question answered!

DO....YOU...LOVE M--

[/color][/center]

The crowd are really laying into Zero and Chambers at this point, yelling obscenities and booing at the top of their lungs as they continue to bait the fans in.

McNally: Do these men have nothing better to do than gloat about putting a top ACW competitor out of action?

Just as the two mouthpieces were getting underway the lights go out and the crowd and the men in the ring are left in total dismay. It isn’t until a few moments later that the lights come back on and Scott Andrews stands behind the men with ‘Lucy’ in hand and a look on his face like the devil chiselled it himself. The crowd are going crazy; no-one expected Scott to return to the arena after what was said earlier.

Jay and the others have no idea that the Scarlet Assassin is right behind them. Scott stands still, only moving his head side to side, deciding which man to decapitate first. After making his decision he spins his bat at his side before launching a swift shot into the lower back of Hack, causing him to tumble forwards onto his knees and then stomach. This gets a loud pop from the crowd and the cheers continue as the assault goes on.

The others are startled, allowing for Scott to get a shot into Slash’s midsection and then ramming the end into his head, knocking him down. Chambers has no time to run as Scott drops his bat grabs Chambers by the collar, pulling him towards him and gets him in a pumphandle position before quickly executing a Sweet Revenge Driver (Pumphandle Inverted Piledriver); how fitting.

Zero realises that Scott has snapped and tries to escape but Scott sees him heading to the ropes and grabs him, turns him around before anyone knows what is going on Chairman Gingerdude’s music hits and this gives Zero the distraction needed to escape the clutches of Andrews and he flings himself through the ropes to the mats. All three other men are lying motionless on the ground and as Scott tries to go after Zero, Gingerdude speaks up.

Gingerdude:[/color] You touch him and you lose your title shot, Scott! I’m warning you! You’ve done enough damage for one night.

The crowd are not pleased at all that Scott is unable to finish the job he set out to do; take out Zero.

Gingerdude:[/color] Now, obviously you didn’t listen to doctors orders, Scott, not that you listen to any voice of authority, but I thought you may have been smart enough to respect the opinion of a fully qualified specialist. You’re not fit to wrestle, Scott, and you shouldn’t be here; but you are. So in saying that, the Main Event Tonight will return to its original 3 on 3 stipulation!

The crowd cheer for the decision; oh how they fluctuate. Zero on the other hand is completely beside himself.

Gingerdude:[/color] So tonight, Scott, you get your chance to take out some of that frustration out, but I have another surprise for you, because the actions of Zero and the three men lying in the ring deserve to be counter balanced. One; Joseph Chambers and the Brothers Grimm are hereby banned from ACW!

The crowd are head over heels with joy as Zero realises that this is not going to be his day.

Gingerdude:[/color] ...and Two; Scott Andrews will have his vengeance at Heatwave as he takes on none other than Jay Zero!

More cheers from the fans as they high five each other and get generally excited about the chance to see Zero get his just desserts from the Scarlet Assassin. Scott is happy too as a devious smirk crosses his face at the mention of the PPV match.

Gingerdude:[/color] Because the way I see it is that if Scott is up to wrestling tonight, he sure as hell is up for wrestling at the PPV; and this is a match that people are going to want to watch with eyes wide open! Scott, Zero, at Heatwave you will both get your chance to prove who really deserves the title shot more, but for now you better get ready for the Main Event.

As his music begins again, Ginger walks back behind the curtain. Zero looks into the ring to see Scott staring at him with the smirk still in place. Scott mouths some smack talk as Zero walks backwards up the ramp. Neither man is willing to back down under these circumstances, so at Heatwave who will walk out the victor?

Fade.

Segment: Joining The Other Side (Credit: Train)

We open facing a building. Various people in suits and ties are walking in and out on this sunny day. The annoying noise of brakes coming to a sreeching halt is heard. The camera turns to the attention of a car. The driver door opens and out walks Thunder Train, also wearing a suit and sunglasses. He smiles and walks into the building. Right away a man turns away from what he was doing and walks over to Train. Train sees him and smirks once more. The man greets Train with a handshake then the two begin walking.

Max Vol Ume: I'm glad you could make it Train, have you made your decision yet?

Thunder Train: Actually I have. I decided to join you guys here. Those previous assholes gave up a great talent and I'm going to show them why. Now where do I sign?

Max Vol Ume: Well, I can't exactly get you to sign yet. You see, there are some more head ups that I haven't talked to yet.

Thunder Train: YOU MADE ME DRIVE ALL THIS WAY FOR NOTHING?!?!

Max Vol Ume: Calm down Train...calm down.

A man walks by that's holding a donut. Train grabs the donut but the man won't let go. Train tugs harder and pulls off the guys arm and eats it along with the donut.

Man: AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH MY ARMMMMMMMMMMMMM AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH

Thunder Train: OM NOM NOM NOM

Max Vol Ume:

Just then a giant bowl of Kool Aid bursts through the wall.

Kool-Aid Man: OH YEAH!

Max Vol Ume: Anyway Train, how about before Heatwave you come back and then you can talk with the higher ups and sign the deal.

Thunder Train: I guess I could. I wish you would have told me that I could have called.

Max Vol Ume: You could have...you just didn't...

Thunder Train: ...

Max Vol Ume: Now, if this whole thing goes through you will have a second album, a graphic novel, a motion picture and many other things that will have Thunder Train on them and we don't care what you do. Our image is so great that you could murder an orphanage and we could cover it up. Unlike those amatures across the road.

Thunder Train: Mmmm...orphans.....*Licks lips*

Max Vol Ume: Riiiiiiiiiiiiight.......

Thunder Train: Alright, I guess I will come back then. See you in a couple days Max.

Max Vol Ume: See you later Train...

Train walks out of the place and Max turns around and has an evil grin on his face. We watch Train get into his car drive away as we fade out.

Fade to black.

Match 3: Kudo Yasuda vs. Wayde Russler (Credit: Scott Andrews)

MATCH START: Wayde, having the size advantage, goes after Kudo quickly to avoid allowing his opponent to gain any momentum. Each time Wayde tries to grab Kudo, however, the R-3 prodigy is able to roll, jump, or spin out of his way. The first attack of the match comes when a miss timed clothesline from Wayde is countered into a Crucifix Pin by Kudo, but he only gets a 1. Both men get to their feet and Wayde is peeved that he was able to be countered like that, but as a ring veteran, Kudo knows better than to outright brawl with a brawler when you’re a junior heavyweight. Wayde lunges again and this time Kudo pushes his arms to the side and comes into him with a vicious knee strike to the midsection, doubling him over. Kudo then goes for a what looks to be a K.O. Exploder Suplex, but Wayde uses his strength to counter with some elbows to Kudo’s head before putting is arm under Kudo’s closest and his chin, swinging into an STO. Wayde covers but only gets a two.

MATCH MIDDLE: Wayde is up to his feet and he lifts Kudo up to get in some more offence. He whips Kudo against the ropes. Kudo comes back and ducks under a leaping Russeler. Wayde waits for the rebound and goes for a huge lariat to knock out Mr. KO, but Kudo has other plans as he rolls under and gets to his feet behind the bigger man. Once to his feet Kudo lands some heavy kicks into his right leg, sending him to the mat. Kudo then lays in some heavy rights to Wayde’s face before an unexpected move to the top rope. The crowd look on as Kudo leaps off with a dangerous looking Double Stomp to Wayde’s chest, knocking the wind out of him. Kudo immediately covers, only to get a two count.

MATCH END: Kudo, disappointed, knows he has to keep going. He gets up slowly and tries to drag Russeler by the leg, but the Entertainment Champion uses his leg strength to push him backwards allowing him to get up. He gets to his feet and grabs his chest in pain before shaking it off and going after Kudo. Wayde grabs Kudo’s hair and lifts him to his feet, ramming his knee into his stomach twice before getting him up into a Powerbomb position and spinning 180 degrees before crashing down in a sit-out position. Wayde stays for the pin but a long two count is all he gets for his efforts. Wayde pushes Kudo away and argues with the referee about the count, getting in is face and taunting his decision. Wayde gives up and turns around only to receive a Yakuza Knee to the head, knocking him down. Kudo goes for the pin, and it’s oh so close, but with no cigar…

[Alicia "Atomic" Kitsune]

Wayde struggles to his feet looking to regain momentum. A win for either man gives them an advantage going into Heatwave and neither man is ready to give that up. Wayde can't find Kudo and as he turns around Kudo comes flying off the turnbuckle connecting with a Yakuza Knee! Wayde stumbles around a little looking dazed before collapsing to the mat. Kudo jumps on top for the pin as the ref counts..

1....

2....

TH.......Kudo is pulled out of the ring by Bryce!!

The ref calls for the bell ending the contest in disqualification and Kudo getting the win. Kudo looks around pissed off because instead of getting the pin he has just won on a technicality. He turns around to see Bryce walking up the ramp with a huge smirk on his face, however Kudo will have none of that. He runs up the ramp and punches Bryce in the back of the head. He grabs him and turns him around and the two start brawling. They go back and forth with punches and eventually wind up heading back towards at ring side.

Inside the ring Wayde is slowly climbing to his feet. He looks outside the ring and realizes what happened. Not too happy himself Bryce got involved he takes advantage of their brawl and runs towards the rope and dives over them tackling both men to the ground.

All three men are stunned for a minute as the fans are going crazy for the unpredictability of this situation. All three men start climbing to their feet and look to continue their brawl when security comes out of the back. They stand in between all three men keeping them separated as Co-Chairman Gingerdude comes out to the fray.

Ginger: ENOUGH ENOUGH ALREADY! Every week I sit in the back waiting for you guys to sort this out and every week it gets worse! One week Wayde is interrupting matches, then backstage attacks, then mic cuts, now this! I can't take this anymore from ANY of you. Bloody hell, the 3 of you standing there remind me of the Good the Bad and the Ugly, but right now what I see in that ring is mostly ugly, and I'm sick of it. All 3 of you keep trying to get to the top but you have the other 2 to contend with. So you know what we're going to do? We are gonna settle this once and for all at Heatwave when you three meet in a Triple Threat Double Jeopardy Match!

Crowd pops big for this match added into the already awesome Heatwave card

Ginger: See this match that I just created gives you all a chance to find out who is the best without ANY excuses. First and foremost, Wayde, NUE will be BANNED from ringside!

Wayde stares on yelling words of obscenity at Ginger.

Ginger: Now the rest of the rules are simple. You three will battle each other in a Triple Threat Match but its not just a regular triple threat. No, not at all. You see, there are no eliminations in this match. This match will only end when one of you can score a pinfall or submission on each of your other 2 competitors! That, is the double jeopardy stipulation! Therefore, whoever is victorious will be able to claim victory over the other 2 and finally end this mess that you 3 have gotten yourselves into! No excuses, no cheating, no unfair advantages. I'll see you on Saturday boys; have fun and enjoy!

With that security takes Kudo up the ramp followed by Bryce. They let Wayde go to ringside to get his belt but when he walks over it’s mysteriously not there. He looks around, his anger growing inside him. He grabs the bell boy by his neck....

Wayde: WHERE IS MY FUCKING BELT?!

The bell boy, in a panic thrust a note at Wayde. He opens it confused and reads....

Dear Mr. X Rated,
I have taken your belt in order to teach you a lesson in respect. You will get your belt back when you learn your lesson. I will be in touch shortly. Oh, and you should always carry a key to your locker room...

Wayde rips the note up and furiously stomps to the locker room to find his partners and get his belt back. He does not have time for these games. The scene fades has Wayde knocks over a camera man on his way to the back.

Fade to black.
