Shockwave episode eight is nearing it's end as Robert Cross walks out of the gorilla position following his match and win against Jaxon James. He wipes the sweat from his brow and makes his way to John Lipnick's dressing room without delay. As he is nearing the door, he sees Ace Reeves coming down the hall, also going to see Mr. Lipnick it would appear. The two make eye contact and then at the same time realize that the door to John's room is slightly opened ... They quickly barge in and find everything wrecked! Tables flipped over, chairs in pieces, the monitor has been smashed to bits, clothes litter the room and in the corner hunched over into a ball is John Lipnick. Ace rushes over to his side and shakes him, but there's no response. Just as Cross is about to go for help, a medical team just about kicks down the door, pushing Reeves aside and doing what they do best. Ace backs up and shakes his head, then slowly looks over at Robert who appears to be emotionless but that's how he appears at all times to be fair. Cross notices that Ace is looking at him funny and walks over to him until they are face to face. "Something to say?" Reeves scoffs at the question. "A lot to say, like what happened to Mr. Lipnick?" Robert clenches his fist, sensing an accusation coming. "I wouldn't know, but you should, seeing as you're with him at all times ... Or you're supposed to be anyways ... Where were you coming from just now, Ace?" That pisses Reeves off, prompting him to shove his supposed brother, which leads to the two of them being pulled away by security as we see in the background John Lipnick being lifted onto a stretcher, motionless, cold ... Is this the end of Renascence?
