ACWA Fightnight
The show opens with pyro and and a video package highlighting the non title main event that Triple H and Aj Styles had at Summerslam.
Taz: Welcome folks to Fightnight , last Sunday we saw an amazing match between Triple H and Aj Styles. Both showed the ultimate sign of respect at the end of the match by shaking hands and Triple H raised Aj's hand.
Triple H's music hits.
Cole : Taz, here he comes now, let's hear what he has to say.
Triple H gets in the ring and grabs a mic.
HHH : Aj!! That match, that was probably one of, if not the best matches I've ever had. You put up an excellent fight and you almost had....
Aj's music plays.
Styles comes on on the titantron stage.
Styles : You're right, I did almost have you. Do you think now I've earned a title match against you? I certainly think so. Man, I must say though, that Pedigree, that's a devastating move, I hope I never taste that move again.
Triple H : Haha, yeah, hopefully I never taste the Styles Clash, if you had of hit that last night, you would of have me for sure. So I think, at NoC I'm going to give you a shot at my title...but, put your title on the line too. You can be way too cocky at times, so about how about we silence that mouth of yours by letting me take that title from you.
Aj : Triple H, I have nothing but the utmost respect for you,. so I will put my title on the line against you. Besides, it's NoC, if I didn't put it up against you, that'd mean I would have to wrestle twice.
Aj makes his way into the ring.
Aj : Just know though, I'm going to win this match, and become the first ever United States Fightnight Heavyweight Champion.
Triple H : Hahaha, you just try me.
They get in each others face and go nose to nose and both hold up their titles.
Commercial Break.
Taz : Cole, I heard we've got some good matches tonight, why don't you tell me what they are.
Cole : Well Taz, tonight we'll see a ladder match between Jeff Hardy and Alex Shelley with a shot at Shelley's European Championship on the line. If Jeff wins, he can sign the contract to fight for the belt, and if Shelley wins, he can pick someone else to fight him at NoC.
Taz : Cole, hopefully Hardy brings his A game, he's been after that belt for a few months now. I also hear we'll see a Triple Threat match between ODB , Awesome Kong, and Traci Brooks. Also tonight we've got an exclusive interview with Hernandez and Homicide where hopefully they can sort out their problems and reunite.
Cole : They've been a great team, hopefully they can work it out before it's too late.
Taz : Yeah yeah, Cole, that'd be nice. It's time for the first match of the night.
ODB is out first accompanied by Deaner, and Awesome Kong comes out alone, followed by Traci Brooks. Traci goes right after ODB, and as soon as she charges her, Kong charges at Traci and knocks her on her ass. ODB grabs kong and knees her in the stomach. Then she hits her with forearms in the back. She whips Kong in the corner, and Traci runs at her and Kong catches her and bearhugs her. ODB goes up top and goes for a dropkick on Kong and hits it.

commercial break.
Back from break and we have the long awaited interview between Homicide and Hernandez. They are both in the ring with Taz.
Taz : Guys, you were a great team, what the hell happened.
Hernandez : Well, you see, my boy over there, got cocky, won the Euro belt and that was all he cared about. He didn't care about LAX or the brotherhood. I realized he only cares about himself.
Homicide : Yo yo yo yo yo yo yo!!! Hernandez, SuperMex, why you gotta be a bitch for man? Why can't you be happy for me homes. I know deep down you want that Heavyweight Belt. Don't even try to disrespect me man.
Hernandez : Essay vato, you're lucky Konnan isn't still here, he'd slap some sense into.....
The old LAX music hits and Konnan is returning. The crowd is in an uproar.
Konnan : Yo, you boys, you my boys. We were LAX, he turns towards Homicide, why'd you have to go and change on me??
He turns around and hits Hernandez with the mic. Konnan and Homicide start beating down Hernandez, until he breaks free of them both. He clotheslines Homicide and throws him out of the ring. He picks up Konnan and Border Tosses him.
Hernandez : Konnan, you boys can have each other, y'all need to learn about respect and the true meaning of brotherhood.
Cole : What just happened Taz??
Taz : Cole, why are you always asking stupid questions?? It's obvious we've seen the total destruction of LAX.
commercial break.
Kurt Angle is in the ring with a mic.
Angle : I'm sick of this crap. I'm a friggin 13 time world champion. I deserve to be in the title picture. Keeping me out of the matches, it's keeping this company out of money, big, BIG MONEY!! If I don't get a match here soon, I may just head over to Rage, I'm sure they've got brains there. I'm sure they'll give me a match and opponent worthy of me. I'm sure they will also be willing to give me a ti....
He is interrupted by none other then Samoa Joe.
Joe comes to the ring accompanied by his mentor Taz.
Joe : Kurt, you remember, TNA, you remember, OUR MATCHES?!?!? Do you remember how many times we kicked each others asses?!?!?!?!
Kurt : Joe, you want no part of me, I'm a man on a mission. I'll screw you right up!!
Joe : Kurt you remember that old chant....Taz how's it go??
Taz : JOE'S GONNA KILL YOU!!!!!
Just as Taz says this Joe clotheslines Kurt and a referee comes down and we have an impromptu match. Joe continues to pummel Kurt in the corner. He kicks Kurt in the chest. He picks up Kurt and Kurt starts punching Joe in the face. He whips him and catches him for a belly to belly suplex. Kurt goes for the cover...1..2....Joe kicks out at 2. Joe sits up and Kurt tries to kick him, but it has no effect. Taz is getting pumped down at ringside. The crowd starts the old chant " JOE'S GONNA KILL YOU....JOE'S GONNA KILL YOU " Joe turns around and him and Kurt are trading punches. He catches Kurt in an overhead suplex. He goes for the cover...1...2..Kurt kicks out. They keep brawling as we go to another commercial.
Back from break and Kurt has Joe in the sleeper. Taz is pounding the mat trying to pump up Joe. Joe is starting to freak out. He's getting pumped. The crowd chants again " JOE'S GONNA KILL YOU....JOE'S GONNA KILL YOU " and Joe breaks the hold and flips Kurt over his head. He throws Kurt into the corner hard. He picks up Kurt and sets him on the top turnbuckle. He picks him up the Muscle Buster, Kurt drops out of it and goes for Joe's ankle. Somehow Joe reverses this and locks in the Coquina Clutch. He locks it in tight as you can see the distraught on Kurt's face. Kurt is either gonna tap out or pass out, there's nowhere to go. Kurt is about to pass out. The ref raises Kurt's hand. He doesn't answer. Again. He doesn't answer. Again. Kurt's hand almost stays up but Joe locks it in tighter. The ref calls for the bell and gives Joe the win.
Joe grabs a mic.
Joe : Kurt, make sure next time you run your mouth, you can back it up.
He passes the mic to Taz.
Taz : The old saying goes.. BEAT HIM IF YOU CAN....SURVIVE IF HE LET'S YOU.
Back from break and the contract is being hung high above the ring as we prepare for our next match of the night.
Out first is Extreme Enigma, Jeff Hardy, followed by Alex Shelley.
Before the match starts Hardy gets on the mic.
Hardy : Alex Shelley, I have never met a man more determined to deter a good competition and fight. You have to be one of the best high flyers I've ever had the chance to see. And you wanna be lazy and never defend your title!! What's up with that man??
Shelley takes the mic out of Hardy's hand.
Shelley : Jeff, I've Alex Shelley, I'm one half of the best tag team around. The way we work together and the way we win. I don't have to answer to you. And I don't have to defend my title against you. Good luck in this match, because remember, if I win, I'm picking my opponent for Night of Champions, remember, Sliced Bread's gonna get ya.
Just as Shelley finishes his sentence he drops the mic and starts trading blows with Hardy. He whips him into the corner and runs at him with a kick. Hardy drops to the mat and Shelley runs at him again and pulls Sabin's hestitation dropkick on Hardy. Shelley goes to pick up Hardy but Hardy punches him in the stomach. Hardy gets up and throws Shelley into the post. Hardy goes for the ladder early and brings it into the ring. Hardy has the ladder in his face and Shelley dropkicks the ladder at him. Shelley puts Hardy in the corner and puts the ladder on him. He splashes the ladder onto Hardy. the ladder falls with Hardy on top of it. Shelley being the cocky wrestler he is, goes for a pin and then realizes there is no one to count and remembers it's a ladder match. He gets frustrated and goes to leave. Hardy realizes this and goes to climb up the ladder. He sees Shelley outside the ring and instead of grabbing the contract goes for a whisper in the wind on Shelley from the 20ft ladder.
Cole : Oh my God!! What a move by Hardy?!?!?!?!
Taz : He shoulda went for the contract there, but that's the daredevil in Hardy for ya.
Both men are slow to make it to their feet but manage to make it. Shelley throws Hardy into the steps. He goes for another hestitation drop kick but Hardy somehow rolled away and Shelley ends up kicking the stairs away from the ring. Hardy pulls a chair out from under the ring and goes for a seated Senton on Shelley. He hits it and climbs back in the ring. He starts to climb the ladder but just as he reaches the top Shelley jumps off the turnbuckle and and tips the ladder over. Shelley climbs the ladder, and goes for the contract, He realizes Hardy is down, and Shelley moonsaults off the ladder onto Hardy. Shelley starts to climb back in the ring followed slowly by Hardy. Both men start climbing off the ladder. Shelley goes to hit Sliced Bread number 2 off the ladder but Hardy throws him off and Shelley falls hard and rolls out of the ring. Hardy climbs up the ladder and grabs the contract to end the show.
