The camera focuses on an hourglass, the sand having almost drained from the top chamber into the bottom completely. From off camera a pair of hands then it over, renewing the time.

Trance: Symbolic... Representative of what each and every one of you thought was going to happen last week. You thought my time was running out. You thought that maybe. Just maybe... The demons and ghosts of this world were going to finally turn and converge on my kingdom.... YOU WERE WRONG!

Jacob moves into camera shot, oddly all alone.

Trance: Tonight my family are going to show that last week was merely... Intended... And now I see the gears spinning in your minds as my very thoughts set your cities ablaze... Why would someone intend to lose?

Jacob strokes his beard as if thinking before looking side on at the camera.

Trance: It's simple... People cannot relate to an unstoppable force... People are not unstoppable. It's about the message someone sends. It's always been about the message. It's the message that has brought my family together and given th strength.

Jacob chuckles.

Trance: It's the reason why scheduled broadcasting returns tonight, it's the reason AC Cobra is going to show the world he deserves far more than the part time Rastafarian... Jookie. Of course, Wesley is no doubt rusty... I can imagine... But my brother if you choose not to compete you too can find salvation, you too could have a family as wonderful as mine.

Trance shakes his head.

Trance: No, you're not going to do that are you... You're going to become a slave to your IGNORANCE! And that... That's fine my child, you'll learn, they all learn in time... Just like... Just like...

Jacob begins to tap his chin, trying to recall a name.

Trance: Oh! That's right!

Trance points at the camera before leaning forward.

Trance: Just like Tobin Frost... The banner bearer of this generation... The second, third and fourth coming of Nate Ortiz. Hallelujah, praise The Lord on high, HE IS BACK! Tobin... Sometimes it's better to stay gone, sometimes it's better to slip off into the shadows. SOMETIMES... It's better to take care of your friends instead of dropping them on their heads!

Jacob snorts.

Trance: Summercide isn't too far away, I would hate for something to happen to you Tobin... Our history is so interwoven now that I can feel your heart beat alongside mine... And yours is fluttering, it's getting quicker and quicker with the realisation of what's before you...

Trance leans back, lifting the hourglass, turning it on its side to stop time altogether. He stares towards the camera and silently moves his lips; "there are other worlds than these."

---------------------------

	I want to see these 'other worlds' he talks about...
	As long as they have bacon, and coffee, I'm all for it.

------------------------------

We fade in on an empty hallway, where nothing much seems to be going on. We hear a small commotion inside a room, then suddenly, a door swings open and a masked luchador with a cape runs right into a wall. Johnny Law follows him and shakes his head.

Johnny Law: Drago, you should be a bit more careful.

El Hijo Del Drago: Johnny, is very hard to see in this stupid mask! I don't think Jesus made good decision here.

Johnny Law: Right.....Well, he gave me a card for you to read while you do your interview.

El Hijo Del Drago: Card? What you mean, card?

Johnny Law: It's got a few sentences in Spanish....

El Hijo Del Drago: SPANISH?!?!?!? Johnny, I'm can't speak Spanish! I'm have very hard time with English, how I'm do this?

Johnny Law: The scumbag said that if you do this and stick to the plan, you'll be champ in no time, so let's get this thing over with.

The pair walk down the hallways, with Johnny behind Drago holding his shoulders to steer him in the right direction. Finally, Drago and Johnny arrive to a particular section backstage where Jim Black is awaiting. Mr. Black motions toward a nearby camera and after a countdown from the cameraman, the interview starts.

Jim Black: Welcome back to Riot, folks, and I'm here with a very different Drago Cesar. Tell me, what really prompted this transformation?

Johnny Law hands Drago the card and Drago......struggles to read from it.

El Hijo Del Drago: Um.....Est....oy. piensan...? que es.......

Drago turns toward Johnny and whispers to him.

El Hijo Del Drago: Johnny, this is very hard for me....

Johnny Law: Just keep going.

El Hijo Del Drago:....porque soy nec......esito evolución con el fin de sobrevivir.

Jim Black looks at Drago awkwardly and continues with another question.

Jim Black: Tonight, you face off against one half of The Blacklist, Wheeler, in a singles bout. What will be your game plan against him?

El Hijo Del Drago: Ahhh.....Estoy no necesitan....? plan de juego. Estoy golpear a su culo de...... punk, entonces me voy al club, ponerme perras grandes botín!

Jim Black widens his eyes in surprise.

Jim Black: Um......I think that's all the time we have now ladies and gentlemen, I'm Jim Black, and that.......was Drago Cesar.

"CUT!" Jim turns to Drago with a serious look on his face.

Jim Black: Really? Really man?

El Hijo Del Drago: What? What I'm say?

Jim Black: You just told everyone that after you beat Wheeler, you're going out to go get some "big booty bitches".

Johnny Law cracks up as Jim shakes his head and steps out. Drago buries his face in his hands as Johnny pats him on the back.

Johnny Law: Come on buddy, you've got a match to do.

They walk off as the segment ends.

commercial

---------------------------------------------

The commercial break ends and we come back to Riot 389. In the arena, Justin Raze is standing with a mic and looks pissed.

Raze: So, I bet everything thinks that I'm a bit sore after what happened after my match last week, don't you?

CROWD: YES!!

Raze: Well, as usual, you have deluded yourselves into believing that you have the right answer, when, you are of course wrong.

Raze: You see, I'm not going to let some has been ruin my night! The night when I introduce you to the man that's going to take me to the top! The man that will lead me on the path to supremacy! That man that will lead me....to gold.

Raze: You see, his act after the match was an act of someone bitter that there are new, young stars that are better than him. People that can show him up and rise above him! He showed how much of a sore loser he was last week because he just can't accept it!

Raze: Now, back to business and...a little history lesson if you will.

Raze: My mentor was an original member of iGen, a name that some of you newer wrestlers may not know, but contained some of the most dominant wrestlers in the business today. Aries, Vincent Valmont, our current World Champion, Jacob Trance, some of the greats!

Raze: He won the Future Investment Match and cashed it in to become the World Heavyweight Champion, a crowning accomplishment!

Raze: Ladies and Gentleman, it is my pleasure to introduce...

At this moment, Valmont's music hits, blocking out Raze from being heard

Raze: Are you #$%&ing kidding me!!

From the audience, a mother and son close to the barricade can hear the superstar

Mother: WATCH YOUR LANGUAGE!!!

Raze: Shut it Miss Piggy!!!

The overweight mother immediately breaks down in tears as Raze turns his attention to the stage.

Vincent Valmont paces the ring as Raze looks directly at him with anger seething from his face. Across the other side of the Ring Valmont remains in distance from Raze. With a big smirk on his face Valmont is handed a mic.

Valmont:" That was an interesting speech, Raze...I especially like all the details regarding who I think you might have been talking about. Now before we get into that I will first like to get this awkward tension away from both of us. Now last week I will admit you tested my limits... you was victorious against me...and that afterwards I know what I did may have seem like just me being a sore loser, but I re-assure you that's not true."

Raze continues to paces with clinched fists expecting another sneak attack. Still seething red from the face with anger as Valmont continues to try, and talk Raze into becoming more calm.

Valmont:"I can see you're upset... very upset, and you have every single right to be pissed at me. I attacked you after our match...you're not the first guy to experience it, and won't be the last. My attack if you want to call it that...I'm going to call it a free tip... advice, or a auditioning."

Raze looks at Valmont confused as the crowd continues to boo heavily in background toward Valmont trying to drown out his speaking, but isn't working.

Valmont:"I know what you're thinking... I'm just lying to you to save my own ass. That you rather attack me to get revenge than talk this out, but I promise after what I have to say you will thank me.

You see I went into our match fully aware just how dangerous you can be inside a ring. A bit reckless, or a loose cannon. Before our match was even booked I was eying someone to become something bigger than they ever could be without my help. I was looking for an apprentice... a student to learn from my teachings, my methods, and lessons. 

So ponder over this offer from me, Raze... will you accept my mentoring? Will you become my student, and I the teacher? Will you agree to listen to everything I say, and do everything I tell you. To never second guess my methods, and to watch my back. Very soon I will become OCW Heavyweight champion again, and I need you. I need you to cover my back as I climb over everyone else towards the top.

The current champion has a family... this isn't what you, and I will be. You're not a clone, or a puppet. I don't want you to change. You're perfect the way you're, buddy. Instead you will learn from me, soak in my advice, do what I say, and I will take you all the way to the very top. Nobody will stand in our way... nobody!

So I give you until next week at Riot to ponder over your thoughts, and give me my answer. Choose wisely because if you're not with me... you're against me!"


Valmont drops the mic, and slowly slithers backwards out of the ring never taking his eyes off Raze. The cameras fade on Raze still standing in the ring. Still upset, but slowly have started to look as if hes really considering what Valmont has offered him.

-----------------------------------------

	So Valmont wants Raze as his apprentice?
	These returning vets really should watch a few shows before they return...Crowe tried this with Raze not 2 months ago...

	And I heard even the un-dead don't have enough patience to mentor him
	I must be missing something..Valmont returns, loses, then offers to teach the guy that beat him? Pretty sure he is the one who got the lesson..this should be interesting.

-------------------------------------------

The camera is panned in on AC who's walking toward the ring for his match.

AC- Tonight I'm giving the task of washing away OCW bad seeds by defeating horrible Wesley.

AC- Guys like him aren't needed around here these days. He's stale,old the younger generation can't relate,tonight I'll take on the task.

AC begins to laugh as he continues to walk towards the back titron area for his entrance.

AC- Following the ref giving me the victory I'll gladly take him out his misery. Those fragile and dingy bones Wesley need an rest.

AC- Here in the Family where all about giving back. I'm taking you away from your time capsule which is your flesh. You don't want to be here Lord Trance doesn't need you here neither. 

AC stops as the sound man begins to play his theme music. You can here The Family theme playing in the background and the crowd booing to the top of there lungs.

AC- And here lies Wonderful Wesley a man that was full of nothing. Let The Family say AMEN!

AC laughs in an evil laughter as the announcer calls him to the ring.

AC Cobra vs Wonderful Wesley
