The scene opens in the parking lot.
Valkyrie has just arrived on her motorbike. She turns off the engine and takes off the helmet…
… but as she was about to hop off her bike, someone jumps her from the back!
The mysterious attacker pushes her off the motorbike. Valkyrie falls down on the ground, as the camera now reveals Ashley Moore as the attacker.
Ashley quickly catches the motorbike by its handles to make sure it doesn't fall down. Meanwhile, Valkyrie is still dazed.
Ashley Moore (screaming): You don't even know how miserable I've become.
Ashley Moore: I once thought you were a kind and helpful person but you are just making everything worse for me.
Ashley Moore: Still you are not my worst problem at the moment.
Ashley Moore: I have no idea what will happen to me in the future. Will I ever see my money again? How long will I be forced to live with you?
Ashley Moore: I have almost no information about my parent’s trial. Nobody even speaks to me anymore.
Ashley Moore: And you cannot imagine, how it feels to have them as parents.
As Valkyrie tries to get up, Ashley hits her with a boot to the face.
She then pins Valkyrie to the ground, pressing her boot on the base of her neck.
Ashley Moore: I've heard you have a match against Karissa tonight.
Ashley Moore: And I've also heard she is a very technical wrestler… she likes to work the arms of her opponents until they tap.
Ashley turns her attention to the motorbike which she is still holding with her free hand.
Ashley Moore: It would be a real shame if this motorbike would fall on your arm…
Valkyrie: No! Wait! Don't….AH!!!
Ashley Moore: Oops!
Ashley lets go of the bike. The Harley Davidson falls on top of Valkyrie with a sick thud, followed by her screams of agony.
Valkyrie tries to get the motorbike off her but it's too heavy.
Valkyrie: Let me go!
Ashley Moore: What? You said you are a real athlete. I'm sure real athletes can overcome small injuries, right?
Ashley Moore: Good luck for your match!
Ashley walks away as a couple of EMTs are now rushing into the scene.
Valkyrie: Get this thing off me!
They pick the motorbike up and check on her.
EMT #1: Are you alright?
Valkyrie: No! Do I look like I'm alright?
EMT #2: Stop screaming, kid!
Valkyrie bites her lips, trying her best to stay still while the medical staff is patching her up. The EMT wraps a bandage around her left arm and gives Valkyrie an ice pack to press against it.
EMT #1: Do you still want to compete tonight? Or shall we find a replacement?
Valkyrie: Of course I'll compete tonight. No question.
The scene fades to the commentary team as the medical staff is now helping her back up
EMPRESS vs AERITH
Back in the locker room area, we see Jim Black standing next to one MJF as he is going thru his pre-match routine. MJF is wearing a nondescript compression shirt and a pair of green with black trim University of Oregon basketball shorts. MJF also has a black durag on his head. Jim gets the off screen cue from the cameraman.
Jim Black: Jim Black here in the locker room area. We have a stacked card for you tonight on Riot. Valkyrie is in action taking on Karissa Dawson. Rust Cohle goes one on one with Antonio Everrett. Also, Will Bobby Minio continue to spiral out of control as he takes on TTT member Quartz. And in the main event. It’s a 3 way dance of champions as Light Heavyweight champ Drago Cesar, Pride Champion Shepard and the OCW H2O square off.
Jim Black: But before we get to that, this man with me now has had some very heated exchanges with Buddy Burns on social media. And tonight he takes on his Rhyme Tyme compadre YSL. He is Maxwale Jayk…..
MJF stops dead in mid squat thrust and puts his hand over Jim Black’s mouth before he could finish saying his name. With his other hand, MJF raises the mic in Jim Black’s hand to his mouth.
MJF: Listen Jebediah. After my dominating win over Telos and all the negative press from the dirt sheets, management came to me and we talked at length about a rebranding of sorts. Could lead to some opportunities outside of OCW. Commercial spots, movies and so on. So say goodbye to MJF and hello to….
MJF slowly removes his durag to reveal his golden colored hair with more waves than off the coast of Ohau, Hawaii.
Maxwale: Maxwale.
Jim Black: Well Maxwale, a lot of words being exchanged on social media between you and Rhyme Tyme member Buddy Burns. Your thoughts on facing his partner YSL tonight?
Maxwale: For as much as I talk the talk. I have no issues walking the walk as well. Buddy Burns sees himself in me. He idolizes me. He wants to be Maxwale. And since his elementary level understanding of anything won’t allow him to communicate that with someone such as myself. He has to express that in other much more annoying ways.
Maxwale: So if Buddy has enough “Nutz”, he’ll show up and bare witness to what will become of his partner in the ring tonight. And Buddy Burns will do one of two things. He’ll either smarten up and learn to respect the greatest light heavyweight in all of OCW.
Maxwale: Or he can continue to be a mental midget, come and try me after I leave his partner laying. They’ll need a second ambulance for them to take that 15 minute ride to Bellevue. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have to suit up for my match.
Jim Black excuses himself as Maxwale turns to reach for his bag with the wrestling gear in it. He can’t seem to locate it. Maxwale started to go thru the rest of his bags and finally sees his bag, which was about 5 feet from where he thought he put it.
He takes the bag back to his space, places it on a stool and begins to open it up with his back to the camera.
He reaches in the bag and vigorously moves things around like something is missing. Maxwale then launches the bag across the room and lets out a profanity laced tirade that the censors manage to catch.
Maxwale stops for a second to check his watch. Realizing that it is so close to match time, he reluctantly begins to put on whatever was in that bag.
JERRY BOY SAVAGE vs A.C. COBRA
”Stronger” hits the PA System and the arena is on their feet as they await The OCW Heavyweight Champion, H2O! Only to find out he doesn’t walk out alone. He’s accompanied by the former Tag Team Champion, K. D’Angelo.
As H2O appeals to his illustrious fans, KD dead heads himself to the ring like a man on a mission. H2O looks over his shoulder to find KD is already making his way inside the ring. H2O paces himself a little bit faster behind his stable mate.
KD quickly heads over to the side of the ring where the announcers are sitting. KD is so enormous than when he leans on the top rope to receive the mic that it touches the middle rope.
KD turns around and walks towards H2O with aggression. H2O put his hands up to stop him and backs away.
KD: Now I’ve been sitting here on the back burner waiting to see when our new found champion is going to be ready to join me in a fight against CQC?!
KD: I know you’ve been a busy man lately. You’ve been dealing with your ex, Valkyrie, Bobby Minio, Pugh and Kassidy Hayes.
KD: Now I want you to look to me and tell me are you going to do what you promised me you were going to do?
KD: Or are you being like someone I’ve used to deal with in Rev Inc.? I don’t mind waiting for this answer.
KD backs himself slowly into the corner. He folds his arms and looks over towards his stable mate. He gives Harvey a nod to indicate he’s waiting for an answer.
H2O snaps his fingers and the lights go out. There’s flash photography coming from every dark space in the arena.
You can still see H2O step down from off the turnbuckle where he was sitting and heads towards the center of the ring. As he walks over, The Good Light shines in the middle of the ring and his mic descends in classic H2O fashion.
The mic met with H2O at the same time in the center of the ring. He looks over to KD and salutes him proudly and then turns his attention back towards the camera.
H2O: Good evening, Universe?
H2O takes a minute to inhale the support of The OCW Universe and exhales his success that comes from it. He takes a sip of his PRISTINE GOOD WATER that was shipped straight from the Colorado Rocky Mountains.
He casually wipes the good water from his lips with two fingers and twists the cap back on it. He then tosses it into the crowd as few members from The Universe makes a scramble for such a precious item.
H2O: KD, I know you’re upset but I’m sorry. You must await your for my answer just for a few more minutes.
KD stands there unmoved and not pleased.
H2O: I have to address something that’s been on my mind as well KD. As The OCW Heavyweight Champion; This matter needs to be addressed immediately.
H2O: Some ol’ raw sewage came back last week and swamped Riot with some foul and egregious filth that spewed from the mouth of a former OCW Heavyweight Champion.
H2O looks down to see The Good Light shine reflect off his waist once again. But this time it’s The OCW World Heavyweight Title.
H2O: As I was making my way here to the arena last week to meet up with Bobby, I was still able to catch Riot 520 in my limo.
H2O: Even coming thru the tv; Not a bag clip nor clothesline clip could seal my nose from smelling the bowels coming out your mouth against The CURRENT OCW Heavyweight Champion.
H2O: Now I know you’re wondering just who am I talking about since there’s TWO men who are formers that Harvey Ocean is dealing with. One of them I would’ve rumbled with on the spot.
H2O: The other...eh. The mood I’m in right now, he would’ve just caught a foot in mouth. But what good that would’ve done? I did it already on Turmoil and Devil’s Night.
H2O shrugs to his left and then his right. You can start to hear cheers fill the arena. The fans get the hint on who’s he talking about now.
H2O: I can do it again anytime, any place or anywhere. I mean there IS a Clash coming up isn’t there?
Crowd pops.
H2O: Before I go any further with that. Let’s deal with this self proclaimed, “Lineal Champion”, Alexander.
You can hear “Oohhs and Ahhhs” flutter throughout the crowd.
H2O: Last time I faced you one on one the referee claimed your hand was on the ropes! It was blasphemous just like your new religion Kasstianity. It even put a fear in the hearts of our officials.
H2O: But not anymore.
H2O: So you want to base your “lineage” off of a referee that feared to make a call against you! Who do you think you are? Tom Brady!
The fans chant ”Cheat, cheat cheat”.
H2O: You ran from me at Summercide. You ran from me at 211. Are you going to run away from me like you run your mouth if we have another match?
H2O: There was only one match you didn’t run from me and it was a good one. Riot 505. What was the result of that match?
H2O: You’ll continue to run from me though.You always seem to do it. It’s your legitimate strategy.
H2O waves off the camera and takes a minute to catch his breath. He looks over towards KD. You can see him through his silhouette shaking his head side to side. KD salutes him.
H2O takes that signal as a green light to continue.
H2O: Speaking of...runners (laughs). There’s another guy who used to run from me inside this very ring until he got too old to do it anymore. As a result he too lost to me recently.
H2O: Good ol’ Paul Pugh.
Mixed cheers for the legend and former OCW Heavyweight Champion. H2O takes his shades off. The look on his face is very intense.
H2O: I took my shades off Pugh because I know you’re somewhere listening The Good Light. I know you’re somewhere watching everything I do and everything I say.
H2O: It’s what real competitors do! So listen to this…
H2O: Trash talking triggers me.It’s no secret. But your trash talking triggers something inside H2O more than anyone else’s in OCW. It’s actually like a breath of fresh air to Harvey. It motivates him.
H2O: But you also let it be known that you saw something inside of me that no one could see. Let me assure you that my passion, my will and desire to be the best at everything I do still burns inside me.
H2O: I have an opportunity to showcase why I’m the CURRENT OCW Heavyweight Champion tonight against two other great champions, Shepherd and Drago. I’m going to showcase Devil’s Night wasn’t a mistake!
H2O: I know what it takes to be The Head Champion in this business. I refuse to regurgitate the same thing and The Inception refuses he same thing over and over like TTT does night in and night out.
H2O: Didn’t you learn something from Bobby alone last week? Don’t question my friends either! Ever!
H2O: I’m stronger than I ever was before. Isn’t that how the song goes? Being a World Champion I know I have to work harder, become tougher and execute.
H2O: It’s called being in that “Hard 2 Obtain” mode….that’s part of the reason why my name is H-2-O!
Fans chant the champions name and he STILL continues as if he doesn’t hear them.
H2O: The opportunity at Devil’s Night didn’t make me happy. It was winning and taking advantage of that opportunity is what made me happy.
H2O: When the ref counts 1-2-3 and the bell rings and it’s not me that’s victorious, you think I’m happy for the opportunity?
H2O: Never.
H2O: The OCW Universe knows I work hard, the boys and girls in the back that matter know I work hard and most importantly…
H2O: I KNOW!
H2O turns his attention back towards KD and snaps his fingers to turn the arena lights back on. He stares Big KD right in the eyes.
H2O: You and me….we’ll talk in the back!
H2O music hits and rolls underneath the ropes and out of the ring. KD watches him leave for a moment. He steps over the ropes and jumps down from the ring as the scene fades.
