April 26th, Week 4

TV-14

EARLIER TONIGHT:

The camera appears in the backstage and shows Edd knocked out as the staff and some of the ACW roster surround him and were wondering what happened. Eddy is seen going through them, trying to see what's going on. He makes through and sees his unconscious friend.

"Double D! Double D!" he shouted, but no answer. He turns to the others, "What happened?! Who did this?"

They had no idea as they were curious of this too. Eddy still had that worried expression on his face, but soon changes to realization, then anger. The camera fades to black...


Now get the guns, the drugs

You see a full moon in the night sky, the chains swinging around, then you see Atem behind the chains.

For my generation, I'll take the...

Then you see Kaiba grinning as the lights flicker. Then you see lights streaking throughout a city then into an arena.

Come on, come on, come on

You see Eddy hitting the Sucker Charge, then Samantha with Dark Dive, and then Sasuke stomping the mat and with the eyes of the viper.

Let's get it on

As the music plays and the lyrics repeat, you see the members of the band playing along with the lesbians, almost every wrestler in pain, various wrestlers hitting different moves, various Divas with sexy poses, and various superstars behind the swinging chains and flickering lights. Then you see Rogen hitting the Double handed-Chokeslam...

The lies, the money

You see the H.O.T.D. Divas flying over the ropes, then you see Kurt rubbing his fingers in symbolism of money.

We're in this together and through it all

You see Jason hitting the Gore on Alex, Takashi with Crossface on Mason, then Naruto hitting the Ninja's Way on Clarke.

They said that nothing's forever

You see Dante standing on the turnbuckle, Isaac screams as he holds the Walls of Clarke, then you see Marik and Bakura smirking evilly behind the swinging chains.

And they refuse to see the change in me

You see Isaac hitting the Dementia on Naruto, the Eds hitting the Edquake at David Reigns, Sakura with the Jackhammer to Kendra, Yugi hitting the Slifer Splash, then the fans cheering in excitement.

Why won't they wake up?!

You see Naruto in the ring as he punches the camera and the glass lens breaks. Then it shows the logo of ACW: Awesome Championship Wrestling.

*Across the Nation by The Union Underground*

After the end of the intro, cameras change to the stage as fireworks played all around it. When it was done, the cameras go all around the arena to show the fans of ACW. But things were different as the intro theme fades and soon another plays.

*Money by I Fight Dragons*

The audience cheer to the sound of theme of Eddy McGee as he walks down the ramps to the ring with angry expression on his face.

"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to Friday Night ACW on the USA Network. I'm Kenji Matsuo with half-brother, Zack Carver, and what you saw earlier was footage from 7:13 PM tonight, that Edd was assaulted and I think I already know who did this to him." Kenji stated.

"It's pretty obvious that Stan and Carter did this to him and for Eddy... Well, we can already tell he's pissed off about this." Zack commented.

"And I bet he's gonna call those sons of bitches out to fight."

"Let's see what he has to say anyway."

Eddy is already in the ring and starts to speak from the mic.

"You know, this... little charade has been going on since the very beginning of Awesome Championship Wrestling. Since Stan, Carter, and the Shield first attacked us and later we fought back. And soon, we kicked both Terri and Carly's ass again from two weeks ago with the help of Atem. Then came in last week when Ed attacked by those same jerks. And you know what I did about it? I came in the ring during their match and gave a Sucker Charge to Terri and got some retribution. But that didn't stop there. Earlier, I saw my smartest and good friend, Edd 'Double D' Remington, lying on the ground knocked out because of two people... And— as Double D usually says— pardon my language, but I have had enough of this bull crap!"

*Crowd Cheers*

"And that's why I'm deciding to call those worms out for a fight. Right now! So, Carter! Terra! Get your butts out here right now! We're gonna settle this once and for all!"

With that, the fans cheer louder and Eddy waits for both wrestlers to come out.

*The Bird and the Worm by The Used*

Walking out to the stage was Stan and Carter with smirks on their faces. Carter already has a microphone in his hand and he speaks into it as their music fades.

"Eddy, Eddy, Eddy, Eddy... How pathetic are you, man? The kid who shocked the world by making his teammate, his best friend, the guy that we knocked out, tap out to the Money Lock and soon won the PCUW World Heavyweight Championship and yet, you couldn't even protect your friends. You weren't even there to help them. And what makes you think that you call yourself a friend to them if you can't do a damn thing? Here's what I see about you: You're a greedy, selfish little punk that doesn't give a damn about his comrades in the first place. That's it. End of story."

With that, the audience boos at that comment as Eddy still was angry from what Carter said. He looks around the crowd, thinking of what say next.

"You know what, Carter? You're right..." Eddy replied, taking a confused reaction from the fans, "I was selfish. I was greedy. And it's true that I could care less about Ed and Double D."

*Crowd Boos*

Carter and Terra smirks at the truth of their enemy.

Carter speaks, "Well... it looks like that the truth is revealed. And it appears that our match at Southern Hell will just have to be—"

"Hang on a second there, bub! I wasn't done talking yet. So— in the words of a awesome WWE Superstar— would you please SHUT THE HELL UP!" Eddy quoted, receiving cheers back from the crowd, "Now when I said I 'was' selfish, I 'was' greedy, I meant that was me back in the very beginning. But as soon as I got into the wrestling business with Lumpy and Sock-head, I became something better. I actually became a friend to many in the wrestling world. It is true that I've done it in PCUW. I've made Ed tap out for the first time and I soon faced Shovel-chin Kevin for the World Title and I won! I made history! And I will make history again by making you two tap out."

The fans cheered wildly to Eddy's statement, but Carter and Terra are not intimidated by him.

"Really? You're gonna make us tap out? How are you going to do that when we have... protection?"

The audience stand confused and soon...

*Sierra. Hotel. India. Echo. Lima. Delta. SHIELD.*

*Special Op by Jim Johnston*

At three different arena steps, the Shield walk down to the ring and soon surround Eddy outside the ring. Carter and Stan soon follow and they all get inside the ring, but they don't attack him. At least, not yet.

"See this, Eddy? You are all alone. There is no one, and I mean, no one, to help you. You're done." Carter stated.

Eddy sees he was completely trapped, but... he smiles.

"What the? Eddy's smiling." Zack implied.

"What's he smiling about?" Kenji asked.

Even the Heels were confused when Carter says next...

"What the hell are you smiling at?"

Eddy replies, "You want to know why I'm smiling, Carter? I'm smiling at your quote, saying that I'm alone. But I'm not. You see, guys, you may have taken out my two best partners, but you didn't think that I would have a back-up plan."

"A back-up plan?" Zack inquired.

"Here's the thing, I knew you guys would do this when you first attacked Ed. So after I attacked you, Terri, Double D and I hatched a plan that if you guys attacked either me or him, we set up a team that's been wanting to get you since the first time you've crossed the line against them. In case you can't get that, allow for me to introduce you to the guys that will help me beat you down..."

Eddy points to the stage, the Heels looked to it and then...

*Time of Dying by Three Days Grace*

Takashi Komuro enters the stage with a baseball bat at his hand.

"Uh-oh! Looks like someone's going to extreme measures." Zack implied.

Takashi, however, stands at the stage and waits for another one to come out as his theme fades.

*In the Black by Motörhead*

Rogen Townsend enters next and stands near Takashi with a small smirk on his face.

"Oh, my! Rogen is on Eddy's team to get some payback for the hell the Shield put him through last week." Zack stated.

"And let's not forget that it was both Carter and Terri— oh, sorry— 'Terra' attacked Takashi just two weeks ago on ACW." Kenji implied.

The Heels turn back to Eddy and showed they're not intimidated by this.

"Okay, McGee. I see what you got to make things even. You got a highschool punk along with a giant nobody from UWE that you think can take us down. Well, you're wrong." Carter implied.

"Actually, Carter, you're the one that's wrong. You see, these guys are not the only ones trying to help us. Earlier, I picked up the phone and made a call of a certain tag team from a certain company I've worked with." Eddy stated.

As the Heels stand confused, they had no idea what was coming to them next.

*This Fire Burns by Killswitch Engage*

Entering the stage was none other than the team of the Second City Saints, Phil Hardy and Colt Anderson, as they run out to the stage with high-energetic charisma and the ACW goes wild as they already knew who they are.

"Oh, my God! No freaking way! It's Phil Hardy and Colt Anderson from PCUW! The Second City Saints! I can't believe they're here!" Zack shouted.

"Looks like things are just getting more awesome." Kenji approved.

Phil and Colt stand by Takashi and Rogen, and soon walk down the ramps to the ring. The Heels move away as Eddy's team enters.

"You see, guys... You're the ones that are screwed. And here's another memorable quote by Chris Jericho. At Southern Hell, we're gonna get...! Get...! Get...! EVEN!" Eddy quoted before dropping the mic and his team charges at them.

"And Eddy's team is going after them!" Zack shouted.

The Faces and Heels are just going at each other in the all-out brawl. Soon, both Takashi and Colt throw Stan and Carter out of the ring along with Rogen throwing Hector over the top rope with a Military Press Drop and both Phil and Eddy Clothesline Erik out of the ring. Now the only one left was David Reigns as he was in the middle of the ring.

"Oh, boy! Reigns is all by himself in the ring. Not good for him." Zack implied.

Reigns stands up and Rogen kicks him in the gut and puts him in the Standing Headscissors. During that, Eddy climbs up to the turnbuckle as well as Takashi. Rogen lifts David up for a Powerbomb, then, simultaneously, Takashi jumps off with a Missile Dropkick, Eddy jumps off with a Flying Clothesline and when they hit David, Rogen completes the tag team maneuver with a Sitout Powerbomb!

"My God! Eddy, Takashi, and Rogen hit the Edquake! Unbelievable!" Zack exclaimed.

After hitting the move, Hardy and Anderson were already on the top rope and Phil jumps off the turnbuckle with the Epic Elbow Drop (Top Rope Elbow Drop, but EPIC!) right to the chest of David. Colt comes in next with the Colt 50 (450 Splash) and hits it right on him! David rolls out of the ring in pain and his comrades aid him. Eddy and his team stand dominate as his theme plays and the Heels back away, shouting at them.

"Looks like The Shield and Alpha and Omega are screwed with this team that Eddy came with. At Southern Hell in the AT&T Center, Eddy, Takashi, Rogen, and Second City Saints will dominate them." Kenji stated.

"Definitely. Coming next is the scheduled match of 'The Extreme Warrior' Alex Loredo versus 'The Billion Dollar King' Kurt Hudson. Don't miss it, folks when we return to the USA Network." Zack announced.

(Commercial Break)

In the deep south of Texas, you see a desert sands blowing along the ways and a tumbleweed passes by. Then you see a small farmhouse along with an old man and his wife sitting outside on their chairs.

"Muriel, I'm gonna go check the crops." said the old man.

"Alright, Billy." replied Muriel.

Billy goes around the farmhouse to the back. And as soon as he arrived...

"Muriel! Come look at this!" Billy called.

Muriel got up from her chair and went to check her husband.

"What is it, Billy?" Muriel asked.

"Look!" Billy pointed to the center of their crops to show... a wrestling ring?

Both farmer and wife were confused of why there was a wrestling ring in the middle of their field. Then, the sounds of marching steps came in. From both sides, it showed professional wrestlers walking their way to the ring. Some of them were also ACW Superstars; featuring Joey Wheeler, Dante, the Eds, Takashi Komuro, and Mason Stone. As soon as all the wrestlers were close to the ring, they instantly run inside the squared circle and all the wrestlers go in a all-out brawl. The Superstars flying around with high-flying moves, Suplexes, Powerbombs, submission holds, and anything else they can cause chaos. Both Billy and Muriel were confused of what's going on, then Jesse comes in next to them... wearing overalls over his suit.

"You know, it's not the best commercial I've done for a Pay-Per-View, but at least it's showing some fights." Jesse stated, but the farmer and wife were looking at him weird with his outfit and Jesse turns to them, "What?"

"ACW Presents: Southern Hell! Live this Sunday at the AT&T Center in San Antonio, Texas. Only on Pay-Per-View!"

(End Commercial)

The cameras return to back stage and shows Eddy and his team congratulating each other.

"Guys, guys, I just want to say thank you all for helping at Southern Hell by taking down Stan and Carter for what they did to my friends. I can understand that you, Rogen, want a piece of the Shield for what happened last week." Eddy implied and Rogen replied with a nod, "And Takashi, I know you and I are on the same page of taking on Alpha and Omega."

"You're damn right about that. For what they did to me two weeks ago, they're gonna regret it." Takashi proclaimed.

"And thank you, Phil Hardy and Colt Anderson, for coming to ACW to help me out."

"Hey, it's no problem, man. If we hadn't signed the contract with Jesse, you'd probably be finished." Phil replied.

"Yeah. Well, see ya later, guys. I'll be seeing you soon."

Eddy soon left as his allies said bye to him as well. Pretty much, Takashi and the Second City Saints were left alone with Rogen as it felt awkward between them. Takashi was the first to break the awkward silence.

"Well... Yeah. See you later, Rogen." Takashi said.

Rogen only responded with a nod and leaves them to themselves. The three young men were confused of Rogen's silence.

"Well, that was weird." Colt implied.

"Eh. It could have been weirder." Takashi stated, "Anyway, guys, I want to say welcome to Awesome Championship Wrestling."

"Thanks very much, Takashi. Hey, we are honored to be here at ACW." Phil replied.

"And coming from Chicago, Illinois, we are going to reek of awesomeness." Colt implied.

"Well, as long as you stick around in ACW, you guys'll do just fine." Takashi stated, "Hey, you know what? Since you are apart of the roster, how about I show you guys around here. I can even introduce you to my team."

"But weren't we already in this team?" Colt asked.

"Uh, Colt, I meant my team. H.O.T.D."

"Oh. Well, you could have just said that."

Takashi raised a brow in confusion as Phil shook his head. Phil answers for Takashi.

"This is how he's always been. I already got used to it." Phil stated.

"Ah. Well, let's go. Shall we?" Takashi implied.

With that, Takashi and Phil head to his team's locker as Colt was thinking to himself of Komuro's team. He keeps thinking to himself until he finally realizes that H.O.T.D. consisted of Rei, Saya, Saeko, and Shizuka. He even starts drooling at the thought of them. Phil comes in to remind him back to reality.

"Colt? Yo, Colt. C'mon, man. We got to go with Takashi..." Phil then realizes of what Colt was thinking, "You're thinking about them, aren't you?"

"Uh-huh." Colt nodded.

Hardy rolls his eyes, "You know what? I think I can manage without you."

He leaves and Colt comes back to the world, "W-What? No, Phil. Phil! Phil! You can't manage to meet H.O.T.D. without me! Hey, wait for me!"

The cameras return to the ring and the bell is rung.

*Bell rings*

*The following contest is scheduled for one fall!*

*I Come From Money by S-Preme*

Kurt Hudson enters the stage with his girlfriend, Alyssa Parker. As they walk down the ramps, Hudson tells everyone he will be the next U.S. Champion.

*Introducing first: Accompanied by Alyssa Parker, from Los Angeles, California, weighing in at 236 pounds, "The Billion Dollar King" Kurt Hudson!*

"Kurt Hudson is facing Jason Krueger's opponent for this Sunday, Alex Loredo. For one thing, he also has a match against Dante for the United States Championship." Kenji stated.

"And let's not forget the stipulation that Hudson has put up for Dante. If he were to lose the match to Kurt, Dante is automatically out of this company for good." Zack reminded.

Kurt stands in the ring and gives a taunt of making more money than anyone else around the world.

*Another Me by Peroxwhy?gen*

Alex Loredo enters the stage as he express his charisma to the fans with a hardcore-attitude. Fireworks even play as he goes with it.

*And his opponent: From Nampa, Idaho, weighing in at 214 pounds, "The Extreme Warrior" Alex Loredo!*

"Loredo, already in just few short amount of weeks, has impressed the ACW with his high-flying charisma and extreme attitude. I believe he will become the first ever Hardcore Champion in ACW history." Kenji stated.

"I believe that as well, Kenji. With all the moves he's shown in ACW, he's got what it takes." Zack commented.

Alex enters the ring and already, Hudson goes on the attack. The bell is rung and Hudson is beating down his opponent.

"C'mon, Hudson! Way to start a match, asshole!" Kenji implied.

He keeps stomping Loredo down until the ref had to get Hudson off of him. While the ref was distracted, Alex rolls out of the ring to catch his breath and Alyssa comes in and hits him from behind, but Loredo didn't feel pain from that and already sees it was Alyssa who did that. She tries to get away, but Loredo grabs her by the hair and the crowd gets excited of what he's going to do with her. Unfortunately, Hudson comes in and hits Alex with a Baseball Slide. Alyssa quickly gets away and Hudson starts attacking Loredo again. After he was done with the beating, he brings Alex up and throws him inside the ring. Sliding inside, he brings Alex's face up and gives a right fist. Then, he grabs Alex by the hair and knees him right in the gut. Next, he hooks the arms up and goes for a Butterfly Backbreaker.

"What a Backbreaker by Hudson." Zack commented.

He covers; 1... Kicks out and Hudson hits Alex with many strikes to the face. After the series of fists, he brings Alex up, but he counters with a Sitout Jawbreaker! Then, he grabs the legs, Hudson falls, Alex jumps and hits the Extreme Leg Drop right at the midsection! Sitting up from the pain in his groin, he gets hit by a Dropkick from Loredo. He runs to the ropes, bounces off and hits Hudson with a Jumping Rolling Senton. After the maneuver, he sits Kurt up, runs back to the ropes, comes back and grabs Kurt's head with a Running Neck Snap. He hooks the leg...

1, 2...

Hudson gets the shoulder up. He stands Kurt up, Irish Whips him, but he counters with a Wrist Wrench and lands a DDT. Kurt stands Alex and throws him to the turnbuckle. With this, he hits a Back Elbow to the head, then a Knife Edge Chop to the chest. Kurt grabs the arm again and Irish Whips him, but holds him and pulls him back for an attack, but Loredo counters with a Frankensteiner.

"Nice counter by the Extreme Warrior!" Kenji commented.

"That was impressive." Zack approved.

After driving the head, Loredo climbs to the top turnbuckle and steadies himself. Hudson stands, Loredo jumps off and hits the Over Castle right at the head. Hudson rolls out of the ring to aid his head. Alex, however, wasn't going to take this as he follows. Kurt sees Alex coming to him, Alex goes for an attack, but Hudson counters by lifting him over with a Back Body Drop and Loredo hits his spine on the floor. Loredo feels a large amount of pain in his back as Hudson stands over him with arrogance. After he was done showing off, Hudson brings Loredo up by the head and slams it on the steel steps. Feeling dizzy and hurt from the head, Loredo gets thrown inside by his opponent. Alex stands in his hands and Kurt gives him a sharp elbow to the back of the head.

"Now Kurt Hudson is taking control of this match. Not sure if Loredo can make it out of this." Zack stated.

Kurt stands Loredo up, Irish Whips him to the ropes, he comes back, and Kurt catches him and hits a Snap Powerslam. He goes for a cover; 1, 2... Loredo kicks out just in time at two. Hudson decides to stand Alex up again, Irish Whips him, he comes back, Hudson goes for a Hip Toss, but Loredo counters with his own. Hudson stands and Loredo gets him with an Arm Drag. Kurt gets up and Alex throws him with another Arm Drag. Getting dizzy, Kurt is thrown to the ropes by Loredo, he comes back, Alex jumps over him with a leapfrog, Kurt runs to the opposite ropes and comes back again, Alex leapfrogs again, but Kurt catches him in time and throws him for a Powerbomb, but in time, Loredo counters with a Sitout Facebuster!

"Damn! What a counter by this young Superstar!" Kenji approved.

Hitting the counter, Alex climbs to the top turnbuckle for his ultimate finisher. After climbing high, he steadies himself for the Swanton Bomb, but Alyssa comes and tries to stop him from jumping.

"What the hell are you doing, Alyssa?! You're not in this match!" Zack shouted.

The ref is telling her to get off the apron and Alex is distracted as well. With this, Hudson manages to get up and, while the ref was distracted, hits a Low Blow to Alex. Alyssa steps down and Hudson goes to work on his opponent. After the series of fists and Knife Edge Chops, he starts climbing to the turnbuckle. On the second rope, he hits Loredo with a right fist. Hudson climbs to the top, puts the arm over, lifts Alex up and hits the Superplex! Hudson goes to Alex and covers...

1, 2...

Loredo is able to kick out at two and a half! Hudson is getting more frustrated as he still thinks of what to finish his opponent off. He stands up and brings Loredo up as well. He puts him in the Reverse STO, goes for it, but Loredo counters, and hits the Chaos Kick!

"And Loredo manages to counter with that Chaos Kick!"

Alex goes to the top turnbuckle, but Alyssa comes in to try and stop him from doing a high-flying move. Loredo sees this and pushes Alyssa off with his foot! After that, he stands tall and high, jumps off, and hits the Swanton Bomb! He hooks the leg...

1, 2, 3!

*Bell rings*

*Here is your winner, Alex Loredo!*

"And just like that, ladies and gentlemen, Alex finishes the match with a Swanton Bomb." Zack commented.

"You know what? I believe this is what will happen at Southern Hell. Up next— What the hell?!" Kenji stopped when Hudson attacked Loredo from behind, "Damn it, Hudson!"

"It's obvious that Kurt is just being a sore loser. I mean, he's already having a losing streak."

After mercilessly beating down Loredo, he brings him up and has him in the Cobra Clutch.

"Come on, Hudson! That's enough! Don't do this!" Kenji pleaded.

Before he could do the Hudson's Street, the crowd's boos turned to cheers as Dante runs down the ramps to the ring. Kurt sees him coming, releases Loredo, Dante slides in and he tackles Hudson down! Both men are slugging each other like there's no tomorrow. Hudson pushes him off, Hudson goes for a Clothesline, but Dante ducks it in time, grabs the arm, and hits a Swinging Neckbreaker. With the momentum, Dante takes off his coat and brings Hudson up. He lifts him up with the Argentine Backbreaker hold and looks to do the Rebellion. Unfortunately, he manages get off the finisher and rolls out of the ring. Alyssa aides him and they quickly head to the ramps.

"What a coward Kurt is. Thinks he's better with his money, but in the end, he's just a little bitch starting fights." Zack stated.

"Got that right, brother." Kenji agreed.

Dante helps Loredo up and pats him on the back. Both Hudson and Dante stare at each other dead in the eye and talk trash to each other.

"Later in the event tonight, the TV Championship on the line between newcomers Duke Devlin and the Hardcore Foundation's own Marcus King." Zack announced, "And the best part about it, with Jesse's treat of Marcus being part of the Hardcore Foundation, the match is a Hardcore Match."

"Definitely a match to see, but before that, we're on way to the Triple Threat Women's Championship Qualifying Match at Southern Hell with Sakura Haruno, Saeko Busujima and Téa Gardner." Kenji announced.

"Speaking of Triple Threats, we have one as the main event of Ichigo Kurosaki, Vergil and Naruto Uzumaki fighting for the chance to face Isaac Clarke at Southern Hell for the ACW Championship."

"Do not change that channel, folks. There's more to come on Awesome Championship Wrestling."

(Commercial Break)

The cameras return and shows Jesse in his office getting some paperwork done. Then a knock on his door came in.

"Come in." Jesse called.

Appearing in the office was Samantha Hart and she looked very angry at her boss. Jesse looks up and sees her expression.

"Is there a problem, Samantha?" Jesse asked.

"Yes, there's a problem, Jesse. How in the hell could you put me in a tag team match with that girl you call a Diva?" Samantha asked.

"If you're talking about Hinata Hyuga, then it's your problem. Not me."

"No. It is your problem. How could you do that to me?"

"Samantha, I understand you're angry and you don't want to partner up with a person you don't like, but I'm afraid you're gonna have to deal with it. It's just business."

"What do you mean it's—?"

"Look, you and Hinata lost the qualifying match last week and I decided to put you two in a tag team match just so you can have another chance of grabbing the gold with the Women's Tag Team Championships. Besides, it'll give you two a chance to bond with each other. Do we understand each other?"

"But-But—"

"Do we understand each other?"

Samantha looked frustrated, but had no choice, "...All right."

"Good. Whether you win or lose, you gave your best shot."

"Don't give me that crap."

With that, Samantha leaves his office as Jesse felt insulted.

"Well, excuse me for trying to lift up your spirits..." Jesse said to himself.

The cameras change back to the ring and the bell is rung.

*Bell rings*

*The following Triple Threat Divas Match is scheduled for one fall! Now in this match, the first Diva to make a pinfall or submission will face Kendra Daniels at Southern Hell for the ACW Women's Championship!*

*Tourniquet by Evanescence*

During the intro, the lights in the arena go dark as the TitanTron plays. After the intro was finished, the lights instantly come back and Saeko is seen on the stage with her hair down and soon looks up to the audience as they react with cheers.

*Introducing first: From Tokonosu, Japan, weighing in at 124 pounds, she is a member of H.O.T.D., Saeko Busujima!*

"Saeko Busujima, also a member of Highschool of the Dead, is in the competition for the qualifying match for the Women's Championship. Kenji, what do you think of this young woman?" Zack asked.

"Well, in my opinion, she impressed us a lot, not just in the exhibition matches, but also her debut just from two weeks ago. I do think she has a chance of grabbing the gold at Southern Hell." Kenji stated.

Saeko stands in the ring as she waits for her next two opponents to come out next.

*Diary of Jane by Breaking Benjamin*

*Next: From the Village Hidden in the Leaves, weighing in at 100 pounds, Sakura Haruno!*

"You know, I gotta say this, if Sakura wins this match and heads to Southern Hell, she'd be facing Kendra Daniels again. This time, for the title. It'd be ironic." Zack stated.

"Not sure about irony, Zack, but you are right. If Sakura wins this match, she will fight Kendra again. It'd be the second episode all over again." Kenji stated, "And I think Kendra would want some payback to her."

Sakura enters the ring and points to the audience with a smile on her face. She soon stands at her corner and waits for the final Diva competitor.

*With Legs Like That by Zebrahead*

Téa Gardner enters the stage with a smile upon her face and blows a kiss throughout the arena like how Maria does.

*And their opponent: From Domino City, Japan, weighing in at 103 pounds, Téa Gardner!*

"But's there's another Diva who wants a piece of Kendra. And that is Téa Gardner." Zack reminded.

"Yes, if I can remember correctly, Kendra Daniels was the one that mocked her and Yugi and Atem's conditions from the first episode. The worst part of that is, I believe that Kendra was trying to call Téa a... Well, you know."

"Oh, I already got you, Kenji. And Téa is not one. She is a beautiful, young athlete looking for a chance at the gold and with this chance of winning the match, some redemption. And I hope she could win this one."

Téa slides in the ring and soon stands on the second turnbuckle with the charming charisma she has. She steps down and the bell is rung. When the match began, the three Divas start go steady of each other.

"To let you know, ladies and gentlemen, the only reason we're having Triple Threat Matches instead is that we do not have enough to fill the Fatal 4 Way competition." Kenji stated, "Since we didn't have enough of the roster, Jesse decided to make this and the Undisputed Qualifying Match both Triple Threat matches. No eliminations this time."

Despite of these Divas being allies, they had to fight. Still steady of each other, getting closer... and Saeko and Téa go into a tie-up before the young brunette drives her to the turnbuckle and goes for many Shoulder Thrusts. She backs away to go for a attack, but Sakura catches her from behind, lifts her up and hits the Back Suplex! From behind, Saeko attacks Sakura with a Running Two-handed Bulldog and she hits face-first to the mat! Saeko covers; 1, 2... Sakura kicks out at two. The violet teen brings Sakura up by the hair, puts her in the Front Headlock, drags her to the corner and climbs to the second turnbuckle, jumps off, and hits the Tornado DDT! She covers again; 1, 2... Haruno gets the shoulder up again.

"Sakura showing resiliency in the match as she kicks out again." Zack commented.

Saeko brings her opponent up, Irish Whips her to the ropes, Sakura comes back, Saeko bends down, and Sakura counters with a kick to the chest. With this, she runs back to the ropes, bounces off, and hits a hard Shoulder Block. She hooks the leg; 1, 2... Saeko manages to kick out. Then from out of nowhere, Téa comes in and hits Sakura with a Front Dropkick to the face. Sakura rolls out of the ring in pain as Téa goes to work on Saeko. She brings her up, but Saeko counters with a Back Body Drop with Téa going over the ropes and landing right on Sakura! Now both Divas are down and hurt. Saeko sees they are down, but as soon as they were getting up, she runs to the ropes, bounces off, and jumps over the ropes with a Corkscrew Body Splash right on her opponents!

"Oh, damn! What a flight by Saeko!" Kenji shouted.

All of the Divas were down on the floor as the fans cheers to what just happened. A replay of Saeko's high-flying is shown the first time and the second time is shown slowly before going back its normal speed. Back in the ring, Saeko is the first up, stands Téa up and throws her into the ring. She stands up and Saeko follows. The violet teen goes for a Toe Kick to the abdomen of Téa followed by a right fist, then to a Wrist Wrench. She twists Téa's arm again, goes for multiple kicks to the chest and finishes it off with a Spinning Roundhouse Kick, sending her down to the mat.

"Very impressive kicks by Saeko. You really got to give her credit for that." Zack commented.

With her opponent down, Saeko backs away and returns with a Handspring Moonsault. She covers; 1, 2... The brunette gets the shoulder up at two. Saeko decides to bring Téa up by the head and have her at the corner. She gives Téa a Back Elbow to the head and a Knife Edge Chop right to the chest. After this, the young violet backs away from her, steadies herself, sprints forward and attacks Téa with a Enzuigiri! The crowd could hear that loud kick to the head as they winced to what just happened. Téa falls forward to the mat and Saeko drags her back to the center if the ring to get a pinfall.

"That's it. Saeko's got the match with that kick." Zack implied.

1, 2...

The count was interrupted by Sakura when she stopped Saeko from getting the win, just in the nick of time. Sakura stands Saeko up, grabs her and throws her down to the mat with vicious Scoop Slam. Saeko sits up from that hard slam and Sakura quickly hits her with a Dropkick to the back of the head. With this, Sakura picks her up and throws her to the turnbuckle. She sees Téa is still down and brings her up as well. Putting her at the opposite corner, she Irish Whips her to Saeko, but Téa counters with her own and Sakura hits back-first right on to Saeko. Téa sprints forward and goes for a Spear right to the Divas at the corner. Both women fall forward as Téa stands tall in the match.

"Looks like Téa's back into the game." Kenji approved.

Téa goes back to her opponents and brings Sakura up. Near the ropes, she puts Sakura in the Standing Headscissors, looking for a Powerbomb or Piledriver, but Sakura was able to counter by lifting her up and throwing Téa over the ropes with the Back Body Drop. Luckily, Téa still hangs on to the ropes. Sakura sees and goes for a right punch, but Téa ducks in time and hits Sakura's gut with a Shoulder Trust. Haruno bends down, Téa slingshots herself over and rolls Sakura with a Sunset Flip Pin!

1, 2...

Sakura kicks out in time at two and a half. Téa stands and brings Sakura up again, but she counters with kick to the gut and hits the Belly to Belly Suplex! Téa gets herself up, but only to be grabbed by Sakura and thrown with another Belly to Belly Suplex. Haruno stands Téa up, Irish Whips her to the ropes, the brunette comes back, Sakura captures her with a Sidewalk Slam, but Téa counters back with a Hurricanrana DDT!

"What a DDT by Téa!" Zack shouted.

"That outta do it." Kenji proclaimed.

Téa hooks the leg; 1, 2... Saeko stops the pinfall in time! Saeko stands Téa up and slams her with a Northern Lights Suplex Pin; 1, 2... Téa is able to stand on her feet and reverse to fall with a Backslide Pin; 1, 2... Saeko kicks out of the pin at two and a half. Both teens stand, Téa goes for a strike, but Saeko trips her and she lays on the second rope. With this, Saeko runs to the ropes, comes back and hits Téa with the Tiger Feint Kick. Téa is now at the center of the ring from that kick, Saeko goes over the ropes and lands a Slingshot Senton! Now Saeko is at her feet, preparing for her final finisher. Téa soon stands up with her back turned on Saeko, she grabs her from behind in the Inverted Headlock, looking to end this. But before she could do so, Sakura comes just in time and hits a Big Boot right to the face of Saeko!

"Oh, my! What a boot by this young woman!" Zack shouted.

Téa rolls out of the ring while Sakura already has Saeko in the Standing Headscissors. She lifts her up, going for the Cherry Bomb, but Saeko slips out of there, turns Sakura around kick her in the gut and now has her in the Standing Headscissors. She tries to lift her, but Sakura quickly counters with a Back Body Drop. Saeko stands and receives a Spinning Side Kick by Sakura, and she has her in the Front Headlock. By then, she puts the arm over, lifts Saeko up, walks to the center of the ring and hits the Jackhammer! She hooks the leg; 1, 2... Saeko somehow manages to kick out of the Jackhammer! Sakura and the fans could not believe it as they stare in shock.

"My God! Saeko, is the first woman to ever kick out of that devastating Jackhammer!" Kenji exclaimed.

With this, Sakura backs away from her opponent, thinking of another way to finish her off. But from behind, Téa slides in the ring, has Sakura in the Full Nelson, and hits her with a Full Nelson Bulldog! Now that she was out of the way, Téa can focus on her next opponent. Saeko stands, Téa lifts her up in the Fireman's Carry, and hits her with the Apricot Dominance!

"Téa hits the Apricot Dominance!" Zack yelled.

"Can she make the fall?" Kenji asked.

She covers; 1, 2, 3!

*Bell rings*

*Here is your winner, Téa Gardner!*

"No way! Téa's done it! She's actually done it!" Kenji shouted.

"I knew she could do it!" Zack implied.

After hearing her name being called, Téa was in absolute shock of winning the match and is on her knees with a few tears of joy, knowing she's got a chance a the gold for the first time in her life. Sakura comes back in the ring and congratulates Téa on her win. She walks to her and helps her up along with them helping Saeko up. Both girls congratulate the brunette as Sakura tells her something.

"Listen, this is only the beginning. Don't stop here. Be the first girl to win the ACW Women's Championship."

Téa smiled and nodded to her statement. Unfortunately, this celebration didn't last long when...

*Looks That Kill by Mötley Crüe*

The three girls look to the stage to see Kendra coming out with a smirk on her face. Téa walks to the ropes and tells Kendra she will be the first ACW Women's Champion.

"All right, guys, coming up next, the vacant ACW TV Championship will be on the line as newcomers Duke Devlin and Marcus King compete for the gold." Kenji announced.

"This is going to be exciting." Zack implied.

(Commercial Break)

The cameras return to backstage and shows Téa in her locker room with that big smile on her face. Coming in the locker room were Joey, Tristan, Yugi and Atem.

"Hey, Téa! Congratulations!" Joey said.

"You did amazing out there." Tristan said.

"Thanks so much, you guys. This I really appreciate. I do." Téa replied.

"You deserved this shot, Téa. And not only that, you have a chance to get some redemption for what Kendra said to you." Yugi implied.

"I know. Which is why I'm going out there at Southern Hell, take her down and win the Women's Championship."

"You will do very well, Téa." Atem proclaimed.

"Thanks. And you know what? I hope for you guys to win the Tag Team Championships and beat Marik and Bakura for what they did to you."

Joey steps in, "And not just that, we want you guys to rub it in Kaiba's smug face when you win the titles."

"Don't worry about that, Joey. Thanks to Jesse making this happen, we will give all we got to those three for the hell they put us through." Yugi stated.

The group nods in agreement. Joey then realized something.

"Hey, guys! I just remembered. Duke Devlin's gonna debut tonight for the TV Title." Joey implied.

"We already know that, Joey." Yugi replied.

"Wha? You already knew, Yuge?"

"We all knew, Joey. Even Duke told us about it." Atem said.

"What?! He told you all except me!?" Joey shouted before his friends nod in response, "Damn it, Duke!"

With that, he walks out of the locker room in anger as his friends bursts out in laughter. The cameras change and shows Saeko walking to her team's locker room. When she opened the door, she receives applauding claps from her team along with Colt and Phil whom were there as well.

"W-What's this?" Saeko asked, confused.

"It's just showing you did a great job out there for doing your best." Takashi answered.

"Well, thanks. I appreciate that."

"You're welcome. By the way, Saeko. I like to introduce to you from PCUW, Phil Hardy and Colt Anderson, the Second City Saints."

"Well, it's nice to meet you both."

Phil shakes her hand, "The pleasure is ours, ma'am."

Colt shakes her hand next, "You're pretty."

From that, the team was weirded out from when he said that as Phil shook his head in embarrassment.

"Um... thank you?"

Rei had news that would break the awkward moment, "Hey, Saeko. I just got news from the GM."

"What is it?" Saeko asked.

"At Southern Hell, we will be facing Samantha Hart and Hinata Hyuga for the ACW Women's Tag Team Championship."

Takashi was in shock, "No way! That's great! Looks like you girls got a second chance."

"Well, Takashi, thanks for having us here. Colt and I will just get going. We'll just leave you and the rest in private." Phil said.

"All right, then. See you later."

"C'mon, Colt." Phil called.

Colt goes first and opens the door, but only to have his face right in Shizuka's large breasts by accident! Phil and the rest of H.O.T.D. blushed to the scene.

"Phil?" Colt muffled.

"Yeah?" Phil replied.

"Did I die and went to heaven?"

"Oh, for the love of..."

With that, he pulls Colt off of Shizuka's bust and Colt was in Cloud 9. Shizuka felt embarrassed as she blushed from that.

"Uh, Phil. Colt. This is our manager, Ms. Shizuka Marikawa." Takashi introduced awkwardly.

"It's nice to meet you, Miss, but we got to go." Phil said as he stood his friend up and they left as Colt had a bloody nose from what just happened.

The cameras change to the arena and shows Kenji and Zack laughing their asses off.

"Oh, man! I gotta feel bad for Colt." Zack chuckled.

"Why would you? He's the luckiest man alive to feel that woman's chest!" Kenji smirked.

"Keep that to yourself, man. Anyways, it is true for what's going to happen at Southern Hell. In the Divas Tag Team Match, Samantha Hart and Hinata Hyuga will face Highschool of the Dead's own Saeko Busujima and Rei Miyamoto for the vacant ACW Women's Tag Team Championships."

"Now all we need is the last competitor for the ACW Undisputed Championship."

"But first, let's head to the TV Championship match right now!"

*Bell rings*

*The following contest is a Hardcore Match and it is for the vacant ACW Television Championship!*

*Slow Chemical by Finger Eleven*

Entering the stage was the Hardcore Foundation's Marcus King as he walks down the ramps and the audience gives a mixed reaction to him.

*Introducing first: From Seattle, Washington, weighing in at 275 pounds, he is a member of the Hardcore Foundation, Marcus King!*

"The only large athlete in the Hardcore Foundation is Marcus King himself. In his debut from two weeks ago, the GM wanted to see more of what else this man could do in this match." Kenji stated.

"And he's doing so by putting the TV Title on the line along by making this match a Hardcore Match." Zack implied.

Marcus stands in the ring and has his right fist in the air with a smirk on his face. He puts them down and waits for Duke to come out.

*One of a Kind by Breaking Point*

*One of a Kind!*

After the fireworks hit, Duke Devlin walks out to the stage with an RVD attitude as fans give cheers to the young Superstar.

*And his opponent: From Domino City, Japan, weighing in at 141 pounds, "The Whole Damn Show" Duke Devlin!*

"Duke Devlin, a newcomer in the ACW Universe, is apparently looking for an opportunity for the shot at the TV Championship. We'll see how this young man does in the match against a giant like Marcus." Kenji stated.

"I'm pretty sure that Duke will survive against Marcus in the match." Zack proclaimed.

"I'm sorry, Zack, but you are wrong. Marcus comes from hardcore! What part of 'Hardcore' do you not understand?"

"That part where Hardcore porn was made."

"What?! What the hell does that have to do with anything?"

"I don't know. Oh, man. You were right about that bug poison."

"You sniffed it after I told you not to?!"

"I was curious, man!"

Duke slides in the ring and raises both fists in the air with a smirk on his face. His music fades and Duke and Marcus head to their corners.

*Bell rings*

When the bell rang, Marcus and Duke go steady of each other as both men were at size and weight difference. Marcus quickly goes to grab him, but Duke ducks him in time, and hits a Spinning Side Kick to the back and Marcus hits chest-first to the turnbuckle. With this, Duke runs to the ropes, bounces off, Marcus looks back, and Duke comes back with a fast Hurricanrana. Duke goes standing on the apron, Marcus gets up, and Duke goes over the ropes and lands Marcus with a Springboard Crossbody Splash. He hooks the leg; 1, 2... King kicks out at two. Both men stand, Duke goes for another quick move, but Marcus counters with a hard Clothesline. Duke is now caught off-guard as he lies in pain from that massive Clothesline. King runs to the ropes, bounces off and hits a Leg Drop right across the throat of Devlin. He hooks the leg; 1, 2... He kicks out at two. Marcus brings Duke up by the head, lifts him up in the Powerbomb, but Duke counters with a Frankensteiner, sending Marcus to the outside!

"What a counter by Duke Devlin!" Zack shouted.

"First, it was Duke that took control of the match, then Marcus and now Duke again. This is already getting intense."

Marcus uses the announce table to stand himself up, Duke runs to the ropes, comes back and hits the Baseball Slide to his opponent. Seeing Marcus is down, Duke looks under the apron for a foreign weapon of any kind.

"Remember ladies and gentlemen, this is a Hardcore Match. Anything goes and pinfalls and submissions can be counted anywhere." Zack explained.

After through searching, Duke takes out a steel chair, a 15-foot tall ladder, and a kendo stick. He holds the kendo stick and hits Marcus' back with it. King feels a large amount of pain in his spine. Duke goes for another strike to Marcus, this time, to his arm. Then he goes for another right at the head of Marcus, causing him fall forward to the floor. Duke drops the kendo stick, rolls Marcus and hooks the leg...

1, 2...

Marcus gets his shoulder up. Duke brings Marcus up by the head, drags him to the steel steps, looking to hit his head on it, but Marcus stops him in time, lifts him up at the side and hits a Sidewalk Slam. With this, Marcus goes to the weapons Duke picked out and throws them in the ring. But he wasn't done from there, he looks through the apron to search for more.

"Wonder what King will be looking for?" Zack asked.

"Anything he can use in this match." Kenji answered.

During the search, Marcus takes out two wooden tables, another steel chair, a sledgehammer, and a trashcan. All of the weapons he brought out, he throws them inside the ring. Meanwhile, Duke is recovering himself from that hard slam by Marcus and is crawling to the other apron as he as well searches for a weapon. He finds another trashcan and the cover, and throws it inside the ring. He slides in the ring with the weapons in his hands as Marcus stands with a trashcan of his own. Both men go steady of each other, then Duke throws his trashcan at Marcus and hits a Dropkick to the trashcan right to face of Marcus! The trashcan was complete crushed as Marcus fell back in pain. With this advantage, Duke picks up the kendo stick and looks to hit King with it again. As he goes for a shot to the face, Marcus blocks it in time with both hands!

"Marcus is somehow able to block that attack with his bare hands!" Zack shouted.

With the block, Marcus aggressively takes the kendo stick away from Duke and he hits his spine with it. He goes for multiple strikes with the kendo stick to the spine before he broke the weapon in half with his bare hands. He throws the broken weapon out of the ring and he goes to grab wooden table and set it up. After he finished setting it up, he goes to Duke, stands him up, lifts him and puts him over his shoulders. With this, he looks to take out Duke with the table. He runs to the table, but Duke slips out in time, has him in the Inverted Headlock and hits the Reverse DDT! With this, he hooks the leg; 1, 2... Marcus kicks out at two and a half. Devlin sees King will not go down easily. He stands up and goes to the top turnbuckle.

"Looks like Duke is planning to hit Marcus with a maneuver from the top rope." Kenji proclaimed.

As Duke waits patiently, King soon starts to stand up and when he looked to Duke, he jumps off the top rope and Marcus grabs him by the throat! With this, he carries him up high and hits the Chokeslam! Marcus is now back on his feet with the great advantage. Soon, he waits for Duke to get up. Devlin soon brings himself up with his back turned on Marcus and he grabs him in the Inverted Headlock as he looks to finish it off with The Final Impact (Snap Inverted DDT). He goes for it, but Duke manages to get out of the finisher and hits a Snap DDT to the chair! As it looks like Duke has him, it wasn't over from there. Duke grabs the ladder, sets it up for himself and starts climbing to the top.

"What in the world is Duke doing?" Zack inquired.

Already on the top of the ladder, Devlin stands high and tall on the ladder and sees his downed opponent. But before he could pull off a high-flying maneuver, Marcus is able to grab onto the ladder and helps himself up. By then, he starts climbing and Duke quickly steps back down a few steps. Marcus soon makes it to the top and makes a right fist to Duke as he fought back with his own. Now a series of punches are going back and fourth, back and fourth and Marcus hits him with another. Then another, and another, and another before Devlin can block the next one and hits a left fist to Marcus and slams his head on the ladder. With that, Duke climbs higher and has Marcus in the Front Headlock.

"Oh, no. What could he be doing?" Zack inquired.

"I think he's going to finish off Marcus from top of the ladder!" Kenji claimed.

With this, Duke takes Marcus' head and they fall of the ladder with a Neckbreaker right to the table!

"Oh, my God!" Kenji and Zack exclaimed.

Crowd: HOLY S%T! HOLY S%T! HOLY S%T! HOLY S%T! HOLY S%T! HOLY S%T!

"Duke Devlin just drove Marcus right through the table with that Swinging Neckbreaker! My God, that was brutal!" Kenji implied.

Both men were down through the table as they were unconscious and in pain from the fall. From the point of this, no one would think that one of these two Superstars would get up. Duke was able to shock everyone when he slowly sat up and crawls to the unconscious Marcus and covers...

1, 2...

Marcus barely gets the shoulder up at two and a half! No one could believe it as the crowd cheers in shock and awe from the match.

"What?!" Kenji and Zack shouted.

"How in the hell could Marcus kick out of that devastating fall?!" Zack asked.

"I have no idea..." Kenji answered in shock.

Duke's face is completely stunned as that fall couldn't get him down. In extreme pain, he makes himself stand up and grabs a steel chair out of desperation. With this, he waits for King to stand up. Soon, Marcus starts get up and uses to ropes help him. When he finally stood up, he turns back to Duke, he goes for a Chair-shot, but Marcus blocks it in time with his hands! As they struggle in strength for the chair, Marcus kicks Duke in the gut and now King has the advantage. Marcus goes for a Chair-shot of his own, but Duke quickly counters with the Dice Shot (Van Daminator)! Now Marcus is in pain from the chair, and Duke sprints to the ropes and bounces off with the DDM: Duke Devlin's Masterpiece (Springboard Tornado DDT). After hitting the springboard move, Duke goes to the top turnbuckle with him facing the fans. On the top, he falls on the ropes and hits the Dice Roll (Split-legged Corkscrew Moonsault).

"Duke hits the Dice Roll!" Kenji yelled.

"Can he make the pin?" Zack asked, loudly.

He hooks the leg; 1, 2, 3!

*Bell rings*

*Here is your winner and the first ever ACW TV Champion, Duke Devlin!*

"My God! Duke Devlin has defeated a Superstar from the Hardcore Foundation! This has got to be a history in the making!" Zack claimed.

"Not only did Duke defeated Marcus King, but he is the first ACW Superstar to debut on the roster and become the first person to debut and win, and the first ever ACW Television Champion in ACW History." Kenji stated.

As Duke sat up in shock, the official hands the title to the young debuting Superstar as he accepted it proudly and stunned. He ran his fingers through his hair in complete shock and soon stood up with the belt in his hands. As he got closer to the center, he proudly raises the belt high with his right arm and gives a huge smirk throughout the arena. He puts the belt over his shoulders and poses with his thumbs like RVD and tells everyone that he's the Whole... Damn... Show. Marcus soon stands up and Duke sees him in pain. King raises his hand out for a handshake, showing respect throughout the match. Duke didn't hesitate to do so and accepted his offer.

"Such respect from both competitors." Zack commented.

"Well, you got to admit, it may not a personal match, but these young men gave everything they had and Devlin came out the winner and Marcus congratulates him on his winnings. And this match has got to be the very best so far in Awesome Championship Wrestling."

Both men released the handshake and Marcus soon leaves the ring as Duke goes to the top turnbuckle to celebrate his first win at the title.

"All right, ladies and gentlemen. Coming up next, Sasuke Uchiha will face a newcomer in ACW and it is said that he comes from a famous legendary family." Zack announced.

"Well, that seems interesting to ACW and us. Who is this young Superstar debuting tonight? Find out when we return live on the USA Network." Kenji announced.

(Commercial Break)

The cameras return to backstage at an interview setup and shows Clarissa Rivera with the TV Champion, Duke Devlin.

"Hello, everybody. Clarissa Rivera here with the guy who just fought Marcus King in the Hardcore Match, please welcome the ACW TV Champion, Duke Devlin." Clarissa introduced as Duke nods to the camera, "Now, Duke how do you feel after from that devastating match against the Hardcore Foundation's Marcus King? What went through your mind throughout the match?"

"Well, Clarissa, I feel like my bones were broken from every part of my body. I mean, I just started here and Jesse decides to put Marcus and I in a Hardcore Match for the TV Championship. I'm not saying it's his fault, but yeah." Duke stated when Clarissa shrugs, "I got to give Marcus credit though. He fought every sweat and tear into that match and he did his best. I, however, won the whole thing. Though, I did many accomplishments in one night: I debut in ACW to defeat Marcus— from the infamous Hardcore Foundation— won the TV Title and became the first guy to ever become the very first ACW Television Champion. And I gotta tell, it feels damn good to be champion. Pretty soon, the world will know that I am..." he turns to the camera, "...the Whole... Damn... Show."

"Whoop-de-freakin'-do..." said a voice from behind.

Devlin turns around to see Sasuke standing.

"Like it's a big deal that you, a rookie, managed to win a childish belt and be the first to win one." Sasuke stated.

"Hmph. Well, this title may not be the biggest in wrestling, but it's better than having no gold at all. Besides, aren't you the guy that tapped out to Isaac Clarke last week?" Duke insulted.

"Let's get one thing straight, I did not tap out to that old bastard. If for one thing, I should've been the one heading Southern Hell for the ACW Championship. Instead, I'm going to have to face a nobody from UWE for the Intercontinental Championship. But you know what? It'll be worth having to win that title and quickly destroying him."

"Please. This Sunday with Mason, what you're going to do is the same thing from last week: Tap out. And you're going to cry like a bitch that you are."

The ACW Universe cheers to Duke's statement as Sasuke had no more words and walked away, and Duke smirked.

He turns to Clarissa, "Well, that seemed to work out for us in the—"

Duke was interrupted when Sasuke attacked him with a Spear. Sasuke starts beating him down mercilessly and stands him up by the head. He says to him...

"You should know to never underestimate me. This is the one day you regret insulting me..."

Then he throws Duke's head right at the television! With this, Sasuke stands over him with a sick grin on his face.

"How's that for hardcore, kid?" Sasuke asked, "Remember, 'Champ,' this... is only the beginning...!"

Then, Joey comes in time to get to Sasuke, but he runs from the setup. Joey wanted to go after him, but he stayed behind to aid his friend as Clarissa is by Duke and blood runs down from his head and the TV is broken. The cameras change to the arena and showed Kenji and Zack in disgust of what just happened.

"That was just disturbing and very low of Sasuke to do that to the new champion." Zack stated.

"It's obvious that he's just being a jealous bitch." Kenji claimed.

"Why would he be jealous? He's just being a bitch for not competing for the world title."

"Okay, good point. His match is up next and right now, we will be introducing the new ACW Superstar."

"Yep. Ring the bell, ring keeper!"

*Bell rings*

*The following contest is scheduled for one fall! Please welcome the Superstar making his debut in ACW, from Los Angeles, California, weighing in at 245 pounds, from the legendary Din family, "The People's Soldier" Dax Din!*

*Isolation by Alter Bridge*

Entering the stage was a young man in his early twenties whom is built very well, has a lot of muscle on him, brown hair and golden brown eyes. His outfit consisted of a black vest that says "DAX" on the back, black tights that say "People" on the left leg and "Solider" on the right. He walks down the ramps to the ring as fans give a cheering reaction.

"Well, I'm not familiar with this young man, but it does surprises me that he is from the legendary Din family." Kenji implied.

"Looks like we have a Din in ACW like other wrestling companies." Zack said.

Dax steps inside in the ring and points to the fans as they react with cheers. He stands in the center wait for his first opponent to come out.

*Sin with a Grin by Shinedown*

Sasuke enters the stage as the fans give massive hate to him.

*And his opponent: Weighing in at 115 pounds, Sasuke Uchiha!*

"Look at that smug bastard; pretending like nothing ever happened." Kenji commented.

"For one thing, I just want to get in the ring and beat some sense into that sick punk." Zack stated.

Sasuke steps inside the ring and stares in the eyes of the newcomer. He goes to Maria and takes the microphone from her. He starts to speak into it.

"Heh... You saw what just happened in the backstage? I just took out the TV Champion. And soon at Southern Hell, I will beat down the living hell out of Mason Stone for the Intercontinental Title and become very first Intercontinental Champion." Sasuke proclaimed as the crowd boos heavily, "But first... I have to take care of a pathetic little worm that just joined ACW tonight and is willing to be taken down by the most dominate predator of all time."

*Crowd Boos*

"Dominate predator, my ass." Kenji scoffed.

Sasuke goes face to face with Dax as he stood with a scowl, "And not just that... I will stand over this pathetic rookie and humiliate him in front of the ACW Universe and in front of his legendary family as he will be worthless as the famous Asheel Din himself."

With that, Dax quickly slapped Sasuke in the face and he starts slugging on him! The bell had already rung and both men soon roll out of the ring as they still slug each other. Sasuke gets Dax off him and Dax comes charging again with tackle and Sasuke's spine hits the steel steps. Dax, still with anger in his mind, grabs Sasuke by the head and slams him on the guardrail.

"Sasuke has disrespected Dax Din's family and his family member, Asheel, and Dax is beating the living hell out of him!" Kenji stated.

Dax grabs Sasuke by the head again and throws him inside the ring. He follows and brings him up. Holding the head, he knees him in the abdomen, and hits a left fist. He goes for multiple fists until Sasuke is at the ropes and Dax Irish Whips him. Sasuke comes back and Dax hits the Reverse Atomic Drop. Sasuke feels pain in his groin as Dax grabs him and throws him down with a Scoop Slam. Then he runs to the ropes, comes back and hits a sharp Double Ax Handle Elbow Drop to the chest. He covers; 1, 2... Sasuke kicks out. Dax brings Sasuke up by the head, puts him in the Front Headlock and hits multiple elbows to the upper spine. After the elbows, Dax has Sasuke's face ready and hits a right fist to it. He puts Sasuke at the ropes, Irish Whips him to the opposite, Sasuke comes back and Dax has him with a Forearm Smash.

"Damn, Dax is not showing any mercy against Sasuke." Zack commented.

Sasuke is sitting up in pain as Dax runs back to the ropes, comes back and hits a Running Knee Strike. He hooks the leg; 1, 2... Sasuke kicks out at two. Dax quickly puts Sasuke in the Headlock. He then stood up as Dax still held on to the Side Headlock. But with a chance, Sasuke is able to counter by lifting Dax up and hitting the Back Suplex to the spine of his opponent. Sasuke stands up and jumps high to strike Dax's head with a Knee Drop. Dax stands himself up from the pain of the Knee Drop and Sasuke quickly strikes him with a European Uppercut. Then he goes for a Back Elbow, making Din fall to the turnbuckle. Now Sasuke starts stomping Dax down multiple times until he is sitting down at the corner. The ref ordered for Uchiha to get off him as he counts up to five. At four, Sasuke stops and gives sinister grin to his dirty work. Then, Sasuke runs to the ropes, come back and runs his foot right Dax's face!

Crowd: Ooh!

"Sasuke with the boot right to the face of Dax." Zack stated.

After hitting that boot, Sasuke drags Din back to the center of the ring and he hooks the leg; 1, 2... Dax gets the shoulder up at two. Sasuke has Dax at his sides and he kicks him right at the spine. He stands him up and hits another European Uppercut. He has him at the ropes, Irish Whips him, Dax comes back, and Sasuke hits a hard Snap Powerslam. He covers again; 1... Dax kicks out. Uchiha stands Dax on his knees, he walks back and hits an Enzuigiri. But Sasuke wasn't done from there as he decided to climb to the top turnbuckle.

"Looks like Sasuke is going climb to the top." Kenji claimed.

"Like a usual predator, Kenji. He either catches them on the ground or dives from the sky to snatch them." Zack stated.

Dax stands dizzy and Sasuke leaps off with a Diving Clothesline, but Dax counters with a Big Boot to the face! Sasuke hit his head hard as Dax grabs his legs, turns to a 180 degrees angle and slingshots Sasuke to the turnbuckle, making him hit hard contact to the steel pole. He falls back hard and Dax covers; 1, 2... Uchiha kicks out at two. Luckily for the Uchiha, when he hit his head at the pole, no blood came out of his head. At least, that's what he hoped. Dax stands and hits a Elbow Drop to the face of Sasuke. After the elbow, he sits Sasuke up and hits a Knee Strike to the spine. He stands him up again, has him in the Front Headlock, gets the arm over, and goes for a Vertical Suplex, but Sasuke counters with a knee to the head. With the pain, Dax lets go of Sasuke and he kicks him in the gut, runs to the ropes, comes back and hits a Running Knee Lift to the head.

"Sasuke was able to come back with that Knee Lift. That sure was painful." Zack commented.

"Definitely." Kenji agreed.

Dax still stands from that Knee Lift and Sasuke grabs him and throws him through the ropes. Now Din is outside of the ring in pain as Sasuke scans his downed opponent. As Din starts to stand up by the apron, Sasuke runs to the ropes, comes back and goes for a Baseball Slide, but Dax dodges it and Sasuke is on the outside. Dax knees him in the gut, he goes to throw him at the steel steps, but Sasuke counters and Dax hits the steps instead!

Crowd: Oh!

The steel stairs were absolutely destroyed and Dax looked in pain as Sasuke stands dominate in the match.

"This is not going to end well." Zack implied.

"No, it will not. Can Dax make a comeback? Find out when return to ACW on the USA Network ." Kenji announced.

(Commercial Break)

"Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen, to Awesome Championship Wrestling live on the USA Network and Sasuke still has the momentum over the newcomer." Kenji announced as Sasuke has Dax in the Armbar from an Arm Drag.

"Earlier on the break, Dax hit a massive shot to his shoulder and Sasuke is now just putting a large amount of pressure into it. Take a look." Zack told.

DURING COMMERCIAL BREAK:

Sasuke is at the turnbuckle with a pained look on his face as Dax looked to be in control. Dax sprints towards the Uchiha for a hard Shoulder Thrust to the abdomen, but Sasuke moves out of the way in time and Dax hits his left shoulder to the steel pole!

BACK LIVE IN THE RING:

Sasuke still holds the Armbar to Dax's injured arm and he hits his chest with a right elbow. Still continuing the pressure, he shouts to Dax to give up and cursed to him. He shook his head in response. Dax just grits his teeth in pain of the hell that burns in his injured arm. Pretty soon, he raises his free uninjured arm in the air to get himself up. Then he starts to stand on one knee as Sasuke tries to keep him down with the Armbar. Dax is now on his feet, trying to do everything he can to get a rope break or something for a comeback. Sasuke soon changes the Armbar to a Hammerlock as Dax is still struggling to reach the ropes. His fingertips were so close to touch the rubber rope, but as he almost reached it, Sasuke releases the Hammerlock, grabs the head, and Inverted Headlock Backbreaker. He hooks the leg...

1, 2...

Dax gets his leg on the rope and the ref sees it!

"Holy crap! I thought he was done." Zack exclaimed.

Sasuke couldn't believe it as he is even more frustrated than ever and he slams his hands on the mat. But he wasn't finished there. He slithers away from Dax, runs his hands through his hair, and starts stomping the mat in a wake-up taunt. He patiently waits and stalks Dax for him to stand up. Slowly, Din does his best to get up by using the ropes. Dax finally stands himself up, Sasuke follows, Din turns around, and Uchiha goes for the Venom, but Din pushes him off! Sasuke goes back to fight, but Dax has him with the Fireman's Carry and goes for a move, but Sasuke gets out of it in time and hits a Dropkick to the back. Quickly on his feet, Dax sees Sasuke going after him and he quickly counters by throwing him over the ropes. Sasuke catches the ropes and stands on the apron in time. Dax tries to go for a Clothesline, but Sasuke ducks it and counters with a Hot Shot.

"And Sasuke catches Dax with his head hitting the ropes." Zack commented.

Sasuke slides back in the ropes and brings him up. He goes for a hard Irish Whip, Dax runs to the ropes, but he stops immediately when he was close to crashing tot he referee. Dax turns back and Sasuke goes for a Clothesline, but he moves out of the way and Sasuke hits the official accidently! Sasuke turns back to Dax and sprints, but Dax counters with a Knee Strike to the abdomen. Then, Dax grabs him by the waist, holds him horizontally and hits the Fall of Fate (Holds opponent horizontally and back-flips so his opponent hits the canvas)!

"That's an interesting move!" Zack commented.

"I'll say! Freaking awesome!" Kenji agreed.

After hitting the signature, Dax now waits for his opponent to get up. Sasuke soon stands on his feet, Dax lifts him up with the Fireman's Carry again, but Sasuke scratches Dax's eyes, slips off, pushes him away and Dax looks back, Sasuke hits the Venom. But he wasn't done as he cracks the sinister smirk on his face. He soon stands up, but what he doesn't know is that Joey Wheeler is running down the ramps as the crowd cheers.

"Look! Joey's running down to the ring!" Zack exclaimed.

Joey slides in the ring, gets Sasuke in the Full Nelson and its the In Your Face! (Full Nelson Facebuster). By then, Joey rolls out of the ring, shouts to Sasuke what he just did was for Duke, and leaves through the crowd. Sasuke, however, looks to the crowd that Joey is the one who attacked him and he was very angry. He stands near the corner and points to Joey that he'll get him back. He goes back to Dax, but he gets hit by the Last Call (Superkick) from Dax! Then Dax lifts him with the Fireman's Carry and hits the End of Days (F-5 into a mid-air Codebreaker)!

"That was also new!" Zack commented.

He hooks the leg and the ref rolls back in; 1... 2... 3!

*Bell rings*

*Here is your winner, "The People's Soldier" Dax Din!*

"Looks like Dax made a groundbreaking debut here tonight, everybody." Kenji stated.

"You got that right, brother. This certainly has got to be a great night for the rookie now that he has some redemption for what Sasuke said to him and his family." Zack stated.

Dax walks back on the ramps with a smile on his face and has his right fist high in the air as Sasuke is still in pain from the finisher.

"Finally, it's the match we've all been waiting for, ladies and gentlemen. Coming up next is the Triple Threat Match Qualification Match for the ACW Championship! The winner of this match will go to Southern Hell and face Isaac Clarke for the vacant title!" Zack announced.

"It's one match you don't want to miss." Kenji stated.

(Commercial Break)

The cameras come back from the break and shows Dax Din being congratulated by Dante, Alex Loredo, and Takashi Komuro.

"I gotta tell ya, man. That was very legit of what you just did out there. Your moves were insane!" Dante said.

"How you carried Sasuke and flipped backwards was crazy!" Takashi said.

"And not to mention that F-5 turned to a Codebreaker. That was pretty good." Alex said.

"Thanks a lot, you guys. I appreciate this. I think I'm gonna like ACW." Dax said.

"Hey, as long as you keep hanging out with us, you'll do just fine." Dante stated, "And you know what? I think ACW's gonna keep rising to the top with a member from the famous Din family."

The guys agreed with nods and then, Isaac Clarke comes in the conversation with a smirk. Dante and the rest of the guys decide to leave. They said their goodbyes to Dax as he was left alone with a infamous ACW Superstar.

"What's your name, kid?" Isaac asked.

"Dax D-Din." Dax answered, a bit nervously.

"Dax Din. From the famous Din family?" Dax nodded, then Isaac has hand out for a handshake, "Welcome to ACW, Dax. I have a feeling you're gonna make it in the main event."

He accepts it, "Thank you."

The handshake stops and Isaac leaves as Dax looks to his hand that he just shaken hands with the top wrestler in ACW and smiled. The cameras change to the announce table with Kenji and Zack.

"Well, Dax seems to find home at ACW already." Zack commented.

"That he is, Zack. Now before we get to the main event, let's take a look at the current match card for Southern Hell." Kenji announced.

"First up, from last week..." the TitanTron shows the matches at Southern Hell and the PPV theme plays, "...Kurt Hudson challenged Dante to a match for U.S. Championship and here's the stipulation: If Dante loses the match, he is automatically out of ACW for good."

"I hope Dante can win this one. Also, along the way, we have the Extreme Rules Match between Alex Loredo and Jason Krueger for the Hardcore Title. And this one is definitely personal with these two men."

"You got that right. Another match along the way is the Ladder Match for the ACW Intercontinental Championship featuring Sasuke Uchiha and the Hardcore Foundation's own Mason Stone!"

"Let's see how Sasuke will face the leader of hardcore. Next, we have what we've been waiting for. At Southern Hell, it will be Altered Egos, Yugi Mutou and Atem, versus The Gods of Darkness, Ryo Bakura and Marik Ishtar, for the ACW World Tag Team Championships."

"I can't wait for that. And speaking of tag team matches, Alpha & Omega and the Shield will be facing Eddy McGee, Takashi Komuro, Rogen Townsend and the debuting Second City Saints in a Ten-Man Tag Team Match. And there's one thing Eddy, Takashi and Rogen are looking for: Vengeance."

"And they most certainly will get it. Now it is the ladies' turn with Kendra Daniels and Téa Gardner that will be facing each other for the ACW Women's Championship."

"We'll see how that's gonna go along with H.O.T.D's own Saeko Busujima and Rei Miyamoto going against a unusual tag team of Hinata Hyuga and Samantha Hart for the ACW Women's Tag Team Championships."

"I have a feeling that match will not end well. And finally, Isaac Clarke will fight for the ACW Undisputed Championship against one of the competitors of tonight's qualification match. Who will win and face him for the vacant title?"

"Well, we're gonna find out..."

*Caaaaaaage!*

*Bullet with Butterfly Wings by Smashing Pumpkins*

"Oh, crap! That scared me!"

Entering the stage was Isaac Clarke as he walks down the ramps with a smile on his face and high-fives the fans along the way.

*Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the special guest color commentator, Isaac Clarke!*

Isaac goes to the announce table and sits down near Zack and Kenji.

"Hey, guys." Isaac greeted.

"Good evening, Isaac. How are you doing?" Zack greeted.

"Oh, I'm fine. Thank you. Like what you guys and the rest of the ACW Universe are doing, I am going to watch this match with my own eyes."

"Well, what are we waiting for, then?" Kenji asked, "Let's get this started!"

*Bell rings*

*The following main event is scheduled for a Triple Threat Match! In the following match, the first Superstar to make a submission or pinfall will win the match and will go on to Southern Hell and face Isaac Clarke for the vacant ACW Undisputed Championship!*

*Flash of the Blade (Iron Maiden Cover) by Avenged Sevenfold*

Entering the stage was Vergil, the twin brother of Dante, as he walks down the ramps with a calm, cool and collected expression and the fans give a mixed reaction.

*Introducing first: Weighing in at 231 pounds, Vergil!*

"Vergil, a XCF Hall of Famer with his fellow brother, Dante, has impressed us in the exhibition matches the past few weeks and he has earned the right to compete in this match." Zack stated.

"You know what? I've talked to this guy backstage before the show started." Isaac said, "Despite of his silence, the man is really intelligent. I mean, if you want to talk to someone in a mature conversation, Vergil's the guy for you."

Vergil stands in the middle of the ring as he looks at the crowd, slowly, from left to right with the same expression.

*You think you know me*

*Metalingus by Alter Bridge*

*On this day...*

At the stage, Ichigo enters through the smoke with an Edge-attitude. As he stops at the ramps, he makes a stance and does a Edge-pose as fireworks play.

*Next: From Karakura Town, Japan, weighing in at 145 pounds, "The Rated R Reaper" Ichigo Kurosaki!*

"Ichigo Kurosaki, known as the famous Rated R Reaper from UWE, joining ACW is definitely another huge making for us here. Then again, this could be a chance for this young superstar to rise to the top with ACW gold." Kenji commented.

"For one thing, if Ichigo wins this match, he'll have to face me for the first time. And I would be honored to face him." Isaac commented.

Ichigo stands on the second turnbuckle as he makes another Edge-pose before stepping down.

*I Will Not Bow by Breaking Benjamin*

*Fall!*

Naruto runs out to the stage with high-energetic charisma to the fans. Naruto then stands at the stage, gives small salute to fans at his right, and runs down to the ring.

*And their opponent: From the Village Hidden in the Leaves, weighing in at 112 pounds, "The Orange Spark" Naruto Uzumaki!*

"The fastest rising star in ACW competing for a chance at gold as he has already grabbed so many at other wrestling companies." Zack stated.

"But this is not just any other gold, Zack. This is ACW gold. This is a chance to go to Southern Hell and become the Undisputed Champion. Hence the word, 'Undisputed'." Kenji stated.

"Undisputed is the right word, Kenji." Isaac agreed, "For these three young men, it's going to mean that they are not going to show any type of alliance. It's going to be every man for himself. And I wish these guys luck of one of them winning the match."

"And for one thing, Isaac, you better hope Vergil is not your opponent this Sunday." Zack commented.

"I don't think it'll matter, Zack."

Naruto slides in the ring and he points to the fans. By then, Naruto takes off his jacket and passes it to the staff. He also takes off his necklace, kisses it for good luck, and passes it to the staff. The three competitors stand at their corners and the ref rings the bell.

*Bell rings*

The competitors go steady of each other for a while as they got closer. Naruto and Ichigo were close to a tie-up, but Vergil quickly kicks Naruto in the gut and starts hitting him with multiple fists as he traps him in the corner. Then, Ichigo grabs Vergil from behind and starts attacking him. At the ropes, Ichigo throws Vergil with an Irish Whip, and as Vergil hits the ropes and stops, Naruto attacks Ichigo with a One-handed Bulldog. Vergil then goes at Naruto with a Forearm Smash. Vergil stands Naruto up and throws him with a Scoop Slam. With that, he runs back to the ropes, comes back and hits a elbow to the chest. Then he stands and hits a Corkscrew Leg Drop. Now he covers; 1... Naruto kicks out at one. Vergil stands him up again and pushes him to the ropes, Naruto comes back and hits a left strike. Then he hits a Knife Edge Chop right to the exposed chest of his opponent.

"Damn! I could hear that from here." Zack implied.

"I felt that before." Isaac commented.

He keeps hitting the chest until Vergil is at the ropes and Naruto throws him with an Irish Whip, but Vergil counters with his own. Ichigo is already back in the ring and throws Naruto over with a Body Back Drop over the ropes and Naruto hits the floor. Ichigo quickly turns around and Vergil attacks him with a Clothesline, sending him to the outside and landing on Naruto. As both men were down, Vergil looks at the turnbuckle and he thought of an idea. He goes to the corner and starts climbing the top turnbuckle. During then, Ichigo and Naruto starts getting up. Vergil makes it to the top, Naruto and Ichigo are standing, and Vergil jumps off the turnbuckle with a Moonsault!

"Holy crap!" Kenji and Zack shouted.

"Wow. Already, this match has been taken to a whole new level in awesomeness." Isaac commented.

Vergil gets himself up after hitting that Moonsault and slides back into the ring. By then, he waits for one of his opponents to get inside the ring. The first one to stand up was Ichigo as Naruto was still down. Kurosaki slides in the ring and stares into the eyes of the calm, but vicious Vergil like they were rivals.

"I'm not sure what's going on between these two." Zack implied.

"It's pretty obvious that they want to get this match on." Isaac stated.

Then the two go into a tie-up and have a battle of strength. Ichigo then knees Vergil in the abdomen and has him in the Front Headlock, but Vergil quickly counters with a Northern Lights Suplex Pin; 1, 2... Ichigo gets his shoulder up and is able to stand up, turn it around, and is now struggling with a battle of strength of turning each other over. Vergil ends the battle by turning Ichigo at 180 degrees, pushes him off and hits a Dropkick. Ichigo stands quickly, he bounces off the ropes, and Vergil hits with a Back Elbow. Then he goes for another Corkscrew Leg Drop, but Ichigo moves out of the way. Vergil is sitting up, Kurosaki goes for a Swinging Kick, but Vergil lies himself down and does a Kip-up. Ichigo tries another kick from the left, but Vergil catches it in time. Then Kurosaki goes for a Enzuigiri, but Vergil blocks that as well. He has him by the legs and slingshots him to the turnbuckle.

"Oh, and Ichigo hits face-first to the turnbuckle!" Kenji implied.

"That was a pretty impressive move by Vergil." Isaac commented.

After he hits the turnbuckle, Ichigo gets in a Schoolboy Pin by Vergil; 1, 2... Naruto comes in to stop the count with a Big Boot to Vergil. Naruto stands him up, throws him with a Irish Whip, Vergil counters with his own, Naruto runs to the ropes, Vergil bends down, Naruto comes back and hits a Running Knee Lift. He hooks the leg; 1... Vergil kicks out at one and a half. Naruto stands him up, but Vergil counters with a knee shot to the ribs and goes for the Abdominal Stretch. Vergil is now in control of the momentum as he holds pressure in Naruto's sides. However, that didn't last long as Naruto slips out of there and throws Vergil over with a Hip Toss. By then, Naruto runs to the other ropes, he comes back, and he and Vergil bump heads at each other!

"Ooh! I think their heads just cracked open." Zack proclaimed.

"I swear I just heard that from here." Isaac said.

The TitanTron shows a replay of the head-to-head contact, then the second time is at slow speed. The cameras return to the match and Vergil and Naruto are in great amount of pain from their heads as they covered their foreheads. Ichigo comes back into the ring and he goes for a pinfall to Vergil; 1, 2... He kicks out at two. He sees he's not out, then he goes to Naruto and tries to pin him; 1, 2... Naruto kicks out at two and a half.

"Ichigo tries for the opportunity of making a pinfall, but he has not as both Naruto and Vergil kicked out." Kenji stated.

"You got to give him credit for seizing a chance to make the pin." Isaac commented.

Ichigo runs his fingers through his hair in frustration, thinking of some way to win this match. He sees Naruto was down and starts dragging him to the center of the ring. With this, Ichigo sits Naruto up and hits a sharp elbow to the spine. Then, he stands him up, Irish Whips him to the ropes, Naruto comes back, and Ichigo hits him with a knee to the gut. Naruto now lies on his back as Ichigo runs to the ropes, bounces off, and hits a Springboard Moonsault. He covers; 1, 2... Naruto kicks out at two and a half. Ichigo brings Naruto up, but the blonde quickly counters with a Possum Pin; 1, 2... Ichigo gets Naruto off him, both men stand, Ichigo goes for a Clothesline, but Naruto catches the arm in time, puts him in the Inverted Headlock, hits his back with his knee, and hits a Reverse Swinging Neckbreaker.

"What a Neckbreaker by Naruto." Zack said.

"Never seen that from him before." Isaac commented.

He hooks the leg; 1, 2... Vergil stops the count just in time. Vergil brings Naruto to the turnbuckle and hits a Knife Edge Chop to the chest. Then he hits a Back Elbow, grabs the arm and Irish Whips him to the opposite turnbuckle and Ichigo attacks Naruto with the Shinigami Strike (Spear)! Vergil and Ichigo turn back to each other and Vergil goes for a left fist, but Kurosaki counters with the Shallow Head (Edge-O-Matic).

"Now Ichigo is complete control of the match with the Spear to Naruto and the Shallow Head to Vergil." Kenji stated.

"This bout has been very impressive to me so far. These guys are really giving it all they got." Isaac commented.

Ichigo, with full momentum in his hands, sees he finally has the match here and is still thinking of what to do to finally end this. Vergil starts to stand and Ichigo grabs him in the Front Headlock. Naruto is up, Ichigo kicks him and has him in the Front Headlock. Going for a Double DDT by himself, Vergil and Naruto quickly counter by the arms and kick him in the abdomen. Then they have him by the Front Headlock and hit a Double Snap DDT. Ichigo rolls out of the ring in pain as Vergil and Naruto go at each other. Naruto goes for a right fist and Vergil dodges it. Vergil sprints to the ropes, bounces off and goes for a Springboard Crossbody Press. Vergil hits it, but Naruto is somehow able to roll back and stand up while carrying his opponent. He puts at his shoulders with the Fireman's Carry and goes for the Ninja's Way, but Vergil slips himself out of it, turns him around, and hits the Step Up Enzuigiri.

"Oh! He's gonna feel that in the morning." Zack proclaimed.

"I think I went through that as well." Isaac commented.

After hitting the Enzuigiri, Vergil waits for Naruto get up and plans to finish him off. Naruto soon stands up and Vergil has him bend down, his knee on the back of Naruto's head, and grabs his right arm and has it ready for an Inverted Overdrive. He was about to go for it, but he lets go of him as Ichigo runs to him and hit the Shinigami Strike! Now Ichigo is all on his own with Naruto. The blonde turns to him, Ichigo kicks him in the abdomen, has him in the Front Headlock, about to finish him off, but Naruto turns it around by having him up the Fireman's Carry, then Ichigo manages to slip off of the maneuver and pushes him away. Ichigo backs away and as when Naruto turns back, Ichigo runs for the Shinigami Strike, but Naruto trips him and puts him in the Will of Fire!

"The Will of Fire! Naruto has Ichigo in the Will of Fire!" Zack shouted.

"Naruto named this move the Will of Fire for a reason, people. It's to determine if you have the will to keep going in the fight or not." Kenji stated.

"Well, that was an interesting fact." Isaac said.

With Naruto still holding the submission, Ichigo is struggling get out of the move. By then, he starts crawling to the ropes with Naruto on him. Scratching and clawing his way in pain to ropes as the ref is asking if he wants to give up. He waves his hand, saying no to the official.

"Ichigo is doing everything he can to fight his way through the Will of Fire and make it to the ropes." Kenji mused.

"I'll be damned if Ichigo taps out here." Isaac said.

Ichigo still hangs on to the submission as he is already halfway to the ropes. Crawling one more time, already has his free hand extended out to the rope. Naruto still holds pressure to Ichigo's neck, he still has the hand out, fingertips are close... and Naruto gets off and drags him back at the center of the ring and still holds the Will of Fire!

"Now Naruto has Ichigo back in the center of the ring. He's got no place to go and he's gotta tap out here!" Zack mused.

"I gotta give the kid credit for making it this far in the match." Isaac commented.

Now Ichigo has no chance of trying to get out of the submission move as his free hand rises... and he taps out!

*Bell rings*

*Here is your winner, Naruto Uzumaki!*

"My God! Naruto has done it! He's going to Southern Hell to fight for the ACW Undisputed Championship!" Kenji exclaimed.

"Well, then..." Isaac said before taking off his headset off and leaving the announce table.

"W-W-What's Isaac doing?" Zack stuttered.

Clarke stands by at ringside as Naruto's hand is raised by the ref. Naruto turns to his left and notices Isaac is standing there with a smirk on his face. Naruto smirks to him as well as Isaac slides in the ring. The fans start cheering as Naruto and Isaac look face to face and then go forehead to forehead.

"Looks like these two are going to make it personal at Southern Hell once we see them fight again. This time, it's for the championship belt." Kenji stated.

"Will Naruto make history of winning another major title in his career or will Isaac be the first ACW Undisputed Champion and will have the first taste of gold in his life? Find out at ACW's very first Pay-Per-View Southern Hell! Good night, everybody!" Zack said.

Both contenders kept staring at each other in the eye as the show ends...
