Ryu is sat casually on a crate in the backstage area texting someone on his ILLUMIcorp Phone. The camera approaches him and the man behind it speaks.

CAMERAMAN: Hey Ryu you got a minute.

Ryu looks up, and smiles. He tucks the phone into his fannypack and replies.

RYU: Of course man, what’s up?

CAMERAMAN: Hey Ryu, how are you feeling about your match with Parker last week.

RYU: Conflicted, on the one hand I definitely brought it to Parker, I think I had him beat in the clinch, on the matt, and I think I edged him out on stand up.

RYU: But I think that despite what people wanna say there's a reason he’s the champ.

RYU: There is definitely a part of me that wishes I could have beat him though, all in all it was a bittersweet result.

CAMERAMAN: I know in the build up to that match you said you didn’t care what happened to your mask but there looked like there was a tinge of regret in your face when Parker burned it up.

RYU: No matter how I feel or where I am in my career that mask will always represent a big part of my career.

RYU: Was part of me sad to see it go, absolutely. But I definitely think it was a necessary catharsis for me leading up to the zenith of my career.

CAMERAMAN: Anything to say about Sean attacking you.

Ryu laughs

RYU: You know I’m the last person that can criticize anyone for jumping someone after a match; and to some degree I do understand why Sean did what he did.

RYU: But if Sean still has a problem with me, he knows who to talk to, and he knows I won’t back down from a challenge.

CAMERAMAN: And how about your match with Nathan Carter this week?

RYU: I know he has a match coming up with Matsuda for that EX-belt so I want to treat him to a bit of a learning experience.

CAMERAMAN: What do you mean?

RYU: Well, there’s only one man that’s beaten Matsuda 1-2-3 clean for the EX Division Title.

RYU: And it takes more than skill, it takes more a lucky night to do it. You need to have the THIRST, you have to want it more than Matsuda to do it.

RYU: And even then I think it cost me more years off my career than I’d care to admit.

RYU: Tonight, Nathan’s going to get a lesson in THIRST and if he wants to get through me, he has to show me that same THIRST Matsuda has.

RYU: Have a nice night man.

The camera pans to the announce team.

	Looks like Ryu is calm and collected for his match!
	It's hard to be calm when you step into the ring with someone like Nathan Carter!

Scene opens to Stacey Clark in the backstage area apparently waiting on a wrestler to interview, and understandably jumpy after her last few weeks on Riot. She flinches as she hears footsteps approaching she turn to see who it is.

Tre Golden: Stacey…. Stacey trust me it okay, it's me Tre Golden, no need to be afraid.

Stacey Clark: why shouldn't I be! Last week your psychotic, perverted, leather bound freak of a friend, assaulted me and left me disfigured!

Golden stifles a laugh, and Stacey shoots him a hard look, Tre reverts back to a straight face.

TG: I know Stacey, and I wanted let oh know on the behalf of Ragnarok, we wanted to issue you an apology, and we would like to give you this.

Stacey takes the brown paper bag from Golden obviously confused as to why Ragnarok would offer her anything, when she reveals the contents her face contorts into one of absolute disgust.

SC: What the hell is this?

TG: That the limited edition Jookie Marley dread headdress!!!

Golden turns to look at the camera.

TG: Only 29.99, available now on OCWshop.com!

Golden turns back to look at Stacey.

TG: You know, to help with your problem?

Stacey gives Golden an absolute look of pure loathing.

TG: I even got you the matching toy blunt!

Stacey slaps the toy out of Tre’s hand, and attempts to slap Tre in the face but he catches her hand. He locks eyes with Stacey firmly clutching her wrist, but not enough to hurt her.

TG: I know you're still upset, but violence is never the answer…… hell I’m a little upset Nathan ruined something as beautiful as you….. so I'll tell you what, when you're tired of little leprechauns on a B Show, and your gorgeous hair grows back, give me a call…. until then stay Golden!!

Golden gives Stacey a smile and a wink, and slaps her firmly on the backside, and walks off leaving Stacey with a bewildered look on her face.

The camera follows Tre as he continues down the corridor, he passes the dry erase board with the matches scheduled for Certified Greatness listed, Golden stops for a second and shuffles backward back to the dry erase board. Golden shakes his head.

TG:This won't do at all.

Golden takes an eraser to one of the matches, then snatches up a marker scribbling something on the board, as he turns to walk reveal his changes, boos are heard in the arena.

Golden had erased his own name from the 4 way match for the Hardcore title, and replaced it With A.C. Cobra. Further up the card Smythe vs. Drago is seen with Tre Golden added, #Tre4N.A.! Is scribbled next to the now triple threat.

TG: Much better!

Golden tosses the marker down begins to exit as he hears an all too familiar voice.

Voice: Ahem.

Tre tries to ignore it as he walks away.

Voice: AH Dumbass HEM!

Tre turns around to reveal non other than Our Hero giving the rookie a bit of a side eye.

Our Hero: Seriously...

Tre Smiles

Our Hero: DON'T SMILE AT ME DUMDUM! MARKER NOW!

Like a kid caught with his hand in the cookie jar, he reaches down picks up the marker and hands it to Our Hero. Our Hero erases A.C. Cobra's name and rewrites it on the bottom of the board, he circles it and puts a bunch of stars next to his name and the word FAVOR, next to it.

He puts Tre Golden's name back in the proper place and doodles a derpy wolf next to it he then writes #dumbass next to it. Tre slumps his shoulders like he just got put on punishment!

Our Hero: Now GO!

Tre walks away as Our Hero can be heard yelling down the hall.

Our Hero: AND FIX YOUR HAIR, YOU LOOK LIKE AN DIRTY UPSIDE DOWN Q-TIP, or SUMTHIN!!!

Our Hero Walks away in the oppositre direction yelling about Being Too Old for this SH......Dookieshoe!

The camera pans to the announce team.

	Well there is his first life lesson, Don't ever cross the boss!
	How rude!

K.Dangelo vs A.C Cobra

The camera pans to the announce team.

	What a jerk!
	That will sting in the marning!

The scene moves backstage as we pan in on your number one contender, "Buffness" Sean McGee, in the locker room talking to one of the female digital media content creators for OCWFed.com. The camera catches movement in the dark corner behind the woman's back and a finger comes into the light. Inch by inch The Monster steps out of the corner placing his index finger in front of his mouth, requesting silence from his friend.

Step after slow step, he slithers up inches behind her back. That 6th sense that seems to come out in humans when they get the feeling their getting watched kicks in and she slowly turns around, coming face to face with Monster.

Monster: BOO!

She jolts back bumping into McGee, who doesn't like to be touched, no matter the reason. He pushes her back forward into Monster and at this point she's really just a meat-filled bouncy ball. Monster finally grabs her by her arms and plants a huge kiss right on her lips before shoving her to the side behind him. She falls to a knee before regaining her footing and scrambling out of the room.

Sean McGee: You're crazy....

The Monster rolls his eyes, shrugs his shoulders, and starts grinning; a very different grin from his normal one.

The Monster: So.... how'd that phone call go?

Sean McGee: How do you think it went?

The Monster: Well, I'm kind of torn here. On one hand, I get Tobin and I CAN'T WAIT to get my hands on Tobin. On the other I get to continue hurting people in his name, and I REALLY do like hurting people; especially those that don't deserve it....

Sean shakes his head at Monster moving to correct him.

Sean McGee: They all deserve it........ 'Specially my opponent tonight. He deserves it more than just about anyone. Content just to play his part in this wretched place. Comes back out of no where, gets a free title shot for being white, and just takes it without saying a damn thing.

Sean McGee: Tonight, win, lose, or draw, I'm breaking that fu#$@rs arm. Just thought I'd let you know in case you'd like to help.

The Monster starts moonwalking on back into his corner.

The Monster: But of course......

The camera pans to the announce team.

	Those 2 I swear!
	Hushup for you catch one!

The X-Tron Flickers On!

The camera pans to the announce team.

	Well that was rude!
	You say rude I say to the point!
