A light comes on from a near by night stand as President Jeff wakes up from a deep sleep.
Ring Ring
Jeff answers the phone next to his bed.
Jeff: Hello?
On the other end is Jeff’s long time friend, Dr. Matt
Matt: Jeff man, did you hear the news?
Jeff: Matt, its 1:30, the hell you doing calling me. Are you drunk?
Matt: I’m serious man. Did you hear the news?
Jeff: What are you talking about.
Matt: Its Diana, she’s dead.
Jeff: What?
Matt: Turn on the news.
With Matt still on the line, Jeff turns on the TV to see a breaking news story and a reporter talking.
Reporter: Another tragedy to add to the trend among those in the professional wrestling community. Why this group of people have so many traumas we may never understand but tonight we find ourselves sadly reporting another. Both an actress and an athlete, a mother and wife, friend only to few; Diana Lambardo, known up till recently as Diana Steel, passed away earlier tonight. The young newly wed superstar was driving no more than 20 feet from the bar she had just left when she and her motorcycle were struck by a white commercial truck that had blown a red light. Coroner’s report shows cause of death as trauma to the head and internal bleeding. Since the report also reads that Mrs. Lambardo was definitely intoxicated at the time of the accident, the truck driver and his company he was driving for will get off with little more than a traffic ticket. The company, ironically Budweiser, was unable to comment at this time. It is understood that just before this incident, Diana had been involved in some type of traumatic drama involving her husband, children and boss. The nature of this trauma has forced investigators to wait before ruling out the possibility of suicide, although sources from the scene of the crime assure us this was not the case. There will be more as the story of Mrs. Steel-Lambardo unfolds
Jeff turns the TV on and sits in shock.
Matt: You alright man.
Jeff: Why?
Matt: I know man, its really screwed up.
Jeff: she didn’t deserve to die. She was a good person.
Matt: I’m here for you man if you need to talk.
Jeff: I don’t know what to say. I just gonna try and get some rest and deal with this all in the morning.
Matt: Alright man, if you need anything you know where to find me.
Jeff: Thanks Matt, Later.
Jeff hangs up the phone and sits in bed with his head down in sadness

It’s the night before Diana Steel’s Funeral. At the funeral hall where Diana’s Wake is ending. Everyone has left. On the opposite end of the room lies a coffin with the lid open and lying in it is Diana. Sneaking in, to avoid the Lambardo family and other APW superstars is President Jeff. Dressed nice, Jeff slowly approaches the casket and see’s Diana lying there peacefully. Jeff looks down at here, Choked up, not sure what to day. Jeff slowly takes one of Diana’s hands which we’re on her chest. Jeff holds her hand as he begins to speak to Diana.
Jeff: I’m so sorry Diana. It was never suppose to end like this. If I knew all this would have happened, then I would have done things different. You were a wonderful person Diana. You we’re there for me when I needed you, just like I was there for you. And you we’re like a little sister to me. I always looked out for you and tried to take care of you. And a part of me feels like I failed you, now that you’re gone. You should still be alive. You’ve done nothing wrong. Why does life have to be so cruel? Why do we live in a world where the good suffers and the bad gets away with evil? You we’re the best person in the world. But your in a better place now Diana. Just remember, you’ve left your mark on this world. You’ve entertained many fans and paved the way for a lot of women that look up to you. You raised an amazing little girl, who will always have your smile. And Little Kenny, A handful, but still a great kid. Remember Diana, Your kids love you. Kenny loves you and I love you. I had to see you one last time Diana and say my good bye to you. You’ll be missed deeply. I’m sorry this happened. I’d rather it be me than you.
Jeff leans down and kisses Diana on the forehead.
Jeff: Our paths will cross again one day kido.
Jeff looks at Diana one last time and puts her hand back on her chest and Jeff walks away, looking back one last time before walking out of the funeral home.
~~Present Day~~
The scene opens up outside. Its night time and all you see is President Jeff’s face.
Jeff: Four months Kenny. Its been four months since we last faced off against each other. Let me take you and everyone else watching, down a trip called, memory lane. It was Rasslmania 4. I know you remember that event Kenny. That’s the event where it all began. The headline match, Kenny Lambardo Verses John Green for the APW World Heavyweight championship. The end results, you beat John in four minutes and won the title. So to keep the fans happy. To give them their money’s worth, because as a fan, I sure as hell wouldn’t be happy to see a four minute main event at the biggest event of all time. So after wrestling for like twenty five minutes in the previous match against Dr. Matt, and made you defend that title right then and there against me. And you won. Because I let you Kenny. Why? It’s simple really. What Kind of business man would I have been if I won the title in my very own company? I had no urge to defend it. It’s pretty simple. At Apocalypse Kenny, in an I quit match, not only am I going to make you scream the words I quit, then vacate the title, because I don’t need it and I don’t want you to have it. My main goal now in this match, is to beat you so I will gain custody of your son, Little Kenny. You son that I raised for three years while you ran off to Iraq to fight in some stupid war. And even when you came back, all those night you would go off and party. Smoke dope with your friends. I was at home, with your son, raising him to be smart. Respectful. Polite. Everything that a child should be! And you, your no role model of any child, especially your own. We’ve traveled the roads together. We we’re tag team champions at one time. I know the kind of partying you can do. I know your life style. And I’m not trying to get custody of your son to piss you off Kenny. I want Custody of your son because I care enough about the kid to make sure he’s being taken care of. To make sure he’s safe and that he is raised properly. And I know you can’t provide that.
Tell me Kenny. Let’s just say you win and have custody of Kenny. How are you going to feel when the kid doesn’t even know that you’re his father? How does it feel when Little Kenny looks up at me, he call’s me “dad.” He calls me “Dad” Kenny. Not you, but me. How does that make you feel? Like a rotten piece of crap I hope. I was there for his first words. I was there for his first steps. I was with Diana to bring him to his first day of pre-school. I raised that child like he was my own flesh and blood. And you don’t deserve to have him. Three years ago, when WWC version crappy number two closed its doors, and you left for Iraq, you left at a time when Diana needed you the most. She begged you not to go. She pleaded for you to stay, but you didn’t listen. And why do you think she wanted you to stay, because she was pregnant. She didn’t want to tell you because she didn’t know how you’d react. You we’re young. Sure it’s only three years ago, but you we’re still young. And after you left, Diana called me. Why me? Because she had no one else she could call and could trust. She told me everything, and I helped her through it. And we formed a tight friendship from it. I took her to the doctors; I was there in the delivery room when she gave birth.
And then you came back. Diana was set to tell you all about Little Kenny but I stopped her. I told Diana the reason was that if you found out that you had a son that you would freak out. But that was a lie. The truth was that I didn’t want you to have little Kenny. I knew if you found out that you had a son that you’d want to be the best father that you could. I knew that because you told me once that you wanted kids one day, but after you had the chance to go to war. So I convinced Diana to keep it a secret, so When ever you we’re out of town Kenny, Diana would take Care of Kenny and when you we’re around, I’d take care of him. That’s how we kept it a secret for so long. But like all secret, it eventually gets revealed. But you weren’t supposed to know the secret Kenny. You we’re never suppose to know that there was even a secret. And when some how Trevor Blackwell found out about the secret, and he was blackmailing us, I knew it was a matter of time before you knew the secret. But I wanted to be the one to tell you Kenny. That’s why I did what I did to prevent Trevor from telling the world. The secret had to come from me. And it had to come at the right time, and that brings me to Test for the Best. Originally Kenny, I was going to tell you then, that’s part of the reason why I knocked you out. That and the fact that you wouldn’t stop bugging me about the secret and you we’re just pissing me off. But after looking down at you and wanting to tell you that Little Kenny was your some, I kinda chickened out. And then I regretted hitting you with the Eye of the Hurricane, but the damaged was now done and I had to face the music and tell you the truth. So the next week I did. I had to knock your ass out again to tell you, because I know you Kenny, if I told you face to face, you would have killed me on the spot for not telling you the secret sooner.
But now here we are Kenny. Apocalypse. I quit match, For the title. It was bound to happen. But why an I quit match. Because I want to hear you scream in pain. I want to here your bone crack and break. I want you to feel deeper pain than what you caused Diana emotionally three years ago. But, now Diana is gone, and it all could have been prevented. It all could have been prevented Kenny if you would have just put your Ego aside. Not be so damn stubborn and just stay with Diana when she wanted you to. Then Diana could have told you the truth from the beginning. We never would have gotten into this mess. We’d still be best friends Kenny. Diana would still be alive. And now, my world has turned upside down. I lost a best friend, I lost Diana. And I may lose Little Kenny. All I have left in my life is wrestling and Action Packed Wrestling. I never wanted to be the bad guy in all this. Is all just sort of happened. I thought I was doing the right thing by helping out Diana. Being a friend. If I known all this would have happened, I would have never answered that phone call. And during all this, I think the reason I never wanted to give Little Kenny up, is because he was like the son I never had. A little Jelious that I never found that person to start a family with. But that day, when Diana gave birth, And I was the first person after Diana to hold him, and he looked up at me, and smiled, Just something came over me. I wanted Little Kenny to be my son.
But now, this whole situation snow balled. This Sunday, it’s not about the title for me. It’s not about putting on a five star classic match of the year. It’s about little Kenny. Lambardo, this isn’t Rasslmania. This time around, you’re not fighting me after I’ve had a twenty five minute match. You’re fighting me at a hundred percent. You almost couldn’t beat me then, you stand now chance now, because now I have something to fight for. And when I’m, determined, you’re screwed. It all come to an end at Appocalypse Kenny Lambardo. The End is here, so say good by to your son, because after I beat you, you’ll never see him again!
The camera zooms out and you see Jeff sitting up against a grave stone. Jeff stands up and you see on the grave stone written “Diana Steel Lambardo 1982-2008.” With a single rose in his hand, Jeff places it on the grave and then say’s.
Jeff: Diana, it is my vow, that Kenny is raised and turns out like the son you want him to be.
You see a side shot of Jeff’s face. A single tear runs down his cheek and lands on the ground as the scene fades to black.
