=========================

The show is now live and the crowed in the KeyBank are more then ready for the show to kick into gear and it showed by them cheering and clapping...

... Then booing as Chris, Jake Hager, Sammy, Tay, Anna and Dani came out the tunnel and down towards the ring while they basked in the boo's, Chris has a mic in his hand while the got into the ring, Sammy and Tay had to prove to the world that their love is real and pretty much shoved their tongues into each others mouths before Chris started talking cutting off the music.

Chris: Okay, that's enough of that...!

That cause even more boo's to ring out from the crowed while they smile and chuckled to their reactions.

Chris: ... Last week I put an end to a pointless group calling themselves "The Score"...

The crowed cheered at the mention of the new growing faction in AEW while Ace waited backstage running through what he was going to say.

Chris: ... You shut the hell up when I'm talking to you...!

That turned the cheers to boo's as the others looked disgusted by the way they were treating their so called leader, Dani asked for the microphone from Chris and he got it while looking out to the crowed.

Dani: Rochester! Appreciate us!

It didn't work and even more boo's came towards them, their faces changed from smiles and chuckles to shocked and worried as they didn't expect to hear this music...

... The crowed came to life when Ace walked out holding a chair in hand walking with a purpose till he stopped at the top of the ramp and looked to them.

Ace: Listen here you Bloodline wannabe's...

The crowed loved it as Ace looked a little pissed while Chris, Jake, Sammy, Dani, Tay and Anna throw insults towards Ace but Ace wasn't done.

Ace: ... Before I get into it, I gotta ask, Jake what does it feel like to be irrelevant?

 Ace smiled while winding them up still speaking of the top of his head, the crowed were clearly on his side as he moved on.

Ace: ... And Dani, beating Brain Danielson. Impressive, it'll be even more impressive if you beat someone that hasn't retired more times then Tay's been on her back...

Tay and Sammy were clearly furious at this as Ace laughed.

Ace: ... Tay's been on more hotel pillows then a chocolate mint! 

Sammy had heard enough and went to attack Ace but Chris stopped him, maybe Ace did go little far with that one, the camera though moved to get a shot of the crowed and they enjoyed what is being said.

Ace: Sammy!? I gotta know. What does Jericho's ass smell like...?

Ace asked questioning him while Sammy challenged him to get into the ring, Tay pretended like her shit didn't stink like her character suggest but Ace apologised backstage for what he was going to say.

Ace: Sammy's head is so far up Chris' ass, I don't know where he ends and Sammy begins!

Ace said shrugging to the crowed while Ace roasted the Jericho Appreciation Society.

Ace: I almost forgot about Anna! How could I forget about a girl who screwed her way to relevancy...

Ace was proud of the trash he was talking and they really didn't like it, Ace knows he might have gone a little far on some of them but he'll make it up to them later.

Ace: Now I'm talking to Chris, not the others but Chris. Why man? Why are you still trying to seem like you're the best? Why do you think you should get a shot at Moxley and the AEW title?

Ace asked walking back and forward a little as he stopped and turned back to them.

Ace: Listen to this grandad, it's time for you to step aside and fold before you run outta chips. Tonight me and you for the chance to face Mox for the AEW title. If you're as good as you think, it won't be a problem right?

Ace mocked him as they told Chris to kick Ace's ass, Ace smiled on the stage while the crowed clearly wanted this match and are more then behind Ace, Chris looked around and knew what Ace was doing and didn't like it so much.

Chris: You've spoken a lot about relevancy tonight and one thing you'll never have that I have, is prestige. You want to face me, I must have hit you harder then I thought...

It was Chris' time to laugh as his little pals found it funny as well, Ace unfolded the chair and sat down kicking his feet back waiting for what he wants.

Chris: ... You haven't got what it takes to step into this ring with me...!

Chris spoke while Ace let his head fall over the back of the chair sighing to the ceiling tired of him talking.

Ace: Will you shut up!?

Ace shouted sitting up right looking to the ring cutting Chris off and giving his friend something else to complain about.

Ace: You did hit me hard and because of that I've never seen things more clear. That mean's seeing right through you and you're little pets here. I now see you for the fraud that you are.

Ace said in a matter of fact tone, Chris took a deep breath as Ace was actually getting under all their skin's, they were impressed by his mic skills and could already see him reaching his dream of getting to the WWE.

Ace: Prove me wrong Chris, prove everyone here and at home wrong, that you don't suck!

Ace shouted standing up creating a "You Suck" chant without even meaning to, Chris stared at the grinning Ace while Sammy, Jake, Dani, Tay and Anna fumed at the crowed for chanting that, their chants turned to cheers though when Chris fuse has had enough.

Chris: You want to face me you got it!

Ace smiled nodding proud of himself but he has one last thing to say.

Ace: Oh and because you put my friends on the shelf this week, It'll be a No Hold Bared Match!

What a way for AEW to open up the show, Ace left the chair behind while walking away from them as they hated the way Ace just embarrassed them...

Chris is in the ring ready for the Main Event of the evening, Ace was more then ready while back in Devon his family's watching, Chris watched the tunnel as Ace has been running around the arena all night trying to avoid the Jericho Appreciation Society while they wanted to make sure Ace didn't make it to the match-up.

Chris laughed as Ace didn't show up and his music cut off but while he was laughing, Ace jumped out the crowed and slide into the ring behind him catching him by surprise.

The crowed came to life as Ace backed Chris into a corner hitting him with haymakers, Chris sold the attack as Ace taunted the crowed bring them to life and walked into the middle of the ring, Ace set his sights back to Chris and charged, Chris thought fast and ducked out the way making Ace hit the turnbuckle at full impact...

... Chris shook his head shaking off the attack while Ace fell on the mat holding his midsection selling the blow, Ace acted hurt while Chris was angered by his attack and gripped Ace's hair pulling him to his feet.

Chris: You think you have what it takes! You think you're better then me...!

Chris was cut off by Ace hitting his hand away and rocking the veteran with a step up Enziguri...

... Chris dropped to his knees as Ace felt the momentum and jumped up and down a little while the crowed pumped him up, Ace ran towards the opposite ropes while Chris got to his feet, Ace showed his athleticism while Chris caught him...

... Chris sat on his knees panting looking to Ace not having expected such a fight from this kid, the crowed are on their feet while Chris stood up and climbed out the ring while Ace slowly recuperated from the hit.

Chris slipped out the ring and pulled a table out from under the ring, the crowed cheered for that loving seeing tables being added into the mix, the camera focused on Chris while he went to set up the table but stopped When Ace flipped through the air...

... Ace jumped to his feet and hyped up the crowed while Chris made his way towards the apron ready for the next spot, Ace hit him then rolled him onto the apron and gave him one last punch for luck, Ace then decided to take a leaf out of Chris' book and shout insults.

Ace: See! You can't beat me Chris! You're washed up old man!

Ace pushed him back onto the apron and went to the table setting it up while Chris got to his feet holding himself up on the top rope, Ace finished setting up the table and joined Chris on the apron ready to put him through the table but ended up getting a punch to the head, Ace got rocked and stumbled a little making it seem like he'll fall through the table till he held the top rope keeping him from the damage.

Ace steadied himself and went to hit Chris with a punch of his own but Chris saw it coming and ducked making Ace spin and Chris lift him up and throw him through the table...

... Ace laid there for a second as that really hurt, Chris panted looking down at Ace thinking that it would have been enough to put him away, Chris jumped off the apron and got Ace into the ring as fast as he possible could trying to lift the beating 180 pound plus man.

Ace rolled into the centre of the ring while Chris went for the cover while the crowed didn't like it.

Ref: 1!... 2!

Ace kicked out after two and that's when the match changed as Sammy arrived at ring side, the ref was going to call him off but it's a No Holds Bared Match meaning he can't do anything, Ace managed to get his feet under him while Chris went out the ring to set up another table.

Sammy however wanted a little revenge for the stuff he said earlier about him and Tay, mainly about Tay and caught him with a knee...

... Chris finished setting up the table after putting flammable liquid on the table and setting it a light, the crowed cheered while Sammy left Ace along to grab a chair but Ace still got to his feet showing his will power to fight and to win, the crowed loved it while Chris looked honestly surprised by his durability and wasn't sure what it'll take to put and keep Ace down.

Ace stood up straight while Chris pulled out a old trick in his book...

... Ace flopped to the mat like a lifeless rag doll as Sammy climbed back into the ring with a chair in his hand, Sammy slid the chair under Ace's head and Chris got the idea, Chris placed his foot on Ace's head then got a run up while Ace stumbled to his feet, Chris went to stomp Ace's head into the chair but Ace was playing possum...

... Sammy was caught of guard by that as Chris rolled onto the apron near the burning tables as Sammy picked up the chair ready to repeat Chris's actions from last week, Ace however was ready this time...

... Ace jumped to his feet while Sammy rolled out the ring taking him out the fight, Ace roared to the crowed getting them even more hyped up then before...

... Ace dropped the rope and looked like he gained his second wind, the crowed are fully on their feet and behind Ace as he pointed to Chris who's panting on the top rope with the burning table behind him.

The crowed cheered for Ace as he ran into the ropes opposite Chris and speared him off the apron and through the table...

... Both men laid on the floor panting while feeling the effects from the match catching up to them and they were doing a great job as the crowed started a chant.

Crowed: "This is awesome!" - "Holy shit!" - "This is awesome" - "Holy shit!"

They chanted back to back as Ace was the first to show some form of life after the ref checked on them both, this would normally be where the match was called off but not for these two as it still wasn't over, Ace got to his feet and looked down at Chris wondering what he could do to win this match, he then looked to the apron as when Chris pulled the last table out he snagged another one making it show just under the cover.

Ace walked over to it and pulled it out sliding it into the ring, Ace climbed in after it and set it up near the turnbuckle ready to put Chris through it once and for all, he got it onto his feet and gave it a hit to make sure it stayed up till he felt a sting on his back.

Chris had got up and picked up the same chair from earlier hitting him square in the back, Ace dropped to one knee while Chris ripped up the corner of the ring, Ace stood up but bent over as Chris shoved the head of the chair into his stomach and dragged him over to the exposed ring boards, Chris got him in position to drop him on his head and Ace wiggled out and dropped him with a super kick...

... Chris dropped in the landing zone and Ace started his climb onto the top rope, the crowed hasn't stopped cheering for this match and Ace's family at home haven't stopped routing for him, Ace stood up right and went for his new addition to his arsenal...

... Ace held his stomach selling the impact from all the damage in the match, Chris quickly got to his feet and pulled Ace up, Ace wasn't able to stop Chris this time and he got planted onto the exposed wood...

... Chris quickly went for the cover while begging that this would be all over.

Ref/Crowed: 1!... 2!...

Just before the three Ace found enough energy to kick out, Chris sat frustrated and yell'd at the ref telling him it was three but the ref stuck to his guns and refused, Chris looked over to the table Ace set up and knew how to make sure this was over and done.

Chris picked up the beating 27 year old man and laid him on top of the table, Chris punched him a few times making sure he didn't get up, Chris stepped up onto the middle rope ready to put them both through the table.

Then the crowed cheered as Ace got up and under Chris' legs getting him into a powerbomb position, Ace lifted him off the turnbuckle and went to pull him off but Chris didn't let go of the top rope, Ace didn't know about a change in the story but he did when the crowed came to life when Toni ran down the ramp with a kendo stick, she climbed up the steps and hit Chris' hands making him let go of the rope allowing Ace to put Chris into the table...

... Ace pushed a piece of debris out the way and went for the cover, Toni turned her attention to the ramp as Anna and Tay charged trying to help Chris, Toni stopped them with the kendo stick while the ref and crowed counted.

Ref/Crowed: 1!... 2!... 3! 

Ref: Ring the bell!

Ace laid on his back next to Chris while the crowed cheered the arena roof of the place as his music rang out...

... Chris patted Ace's chest while they laid there giving him an emotional pat on the back, Ace rolled onto his front and struggled to get up as Toni got into the ring and helped him.

Toni: Play along.

She whispered to him making him nod and her help him up, "The Score" are getting new women members and Toni's going to be one of them.

Ariana: It's Ace's girlfriend!

She shouted pointing to the Tv making David, Lori and Carol look confused to the 7 year old addition to their family, Ace hasn't had a girlfriend since middle school so it was a surprise to them but Ace seemed happy with his arm over her shoulder as she held him up celebrating his first solo win of his AEW career...
