Wait And See

As the camera's rolled, there was no shot of a screaming crowd, or of hundreds of dollars worth of effects going off to start this week's Courage, instead, it was a picture of Ethan Winters, whom sat behind a desk with a few pieces of paper in front of him, which he adjusted as he went live on air.

"Ladies and gentlemen, at this very time, you should infact be watching 15th edition of Sunday Courage, but instead, you are sitting in your homes, obviously disappointed that there will be no show at all this week, only a short message from myself.

Since the beginning of my short reign in ACW, I have looked to make ACW the best that it possibly can be, and I'm afraid that that looks to be the main reason that we have no show this week, because I want the show to be as good as possible. I don't know if you have noticed or not, but wrestlers these days don't take well to criticism, and it seems like unlike any other sport on this planet, wrestlers cannot be given pointers or a telling off, which is ridiculous.

Almost half of the ACW roster have went on strike for this week, but they have said that they will return next week to "discuss" there future's...if this is the way in which they act when I give them a little bit of criticism, it is my opinion that some of them do not have a future in ACW.

As for their ring leaders, Dunn and Boyd, they have indeed set their stall out to show that they are not happy in the way that their federation in run, but I think they are mistaken on one count, it is no longer their federation, as all the contracts these days state my name on the top, not Dunn and not Boyd's. Saying that however...I am willing to speak to them once again, but this time, it will be in front of the masses, next week on Courage.

I have nothing to hide ladies and gentlemen, nothing, and therefore I am very happy to take ACW's private business, in front of the people that matter, and that is you.

It is my hope and my wish that you join us next week on Courage, were upon other things, matches will be booked for Apocalypse and we will see the return of the striking wrestlers.

We will also see the Television Title going on the line, as ICU will take on Scott Perry, with other matches being Max Douglas taking on the returning Jade, Jay Smash going one on one with Anima in a special ACW Hardcore match and Alias taking on Dane Rivers...plus we will have a few other matches on the card I am sure of it.

I hope you, and the striking wrestlers will join us, February 2nd, 2003 Live from the Kemper Arena, Kansas City.
