Ronaldo goes up there too dressed as the "Loch Ness Blogster"  and tries to fight her, but she takes him down easily. After the fight is over, Amethyst leaves the building and shape shifts back into her true form. Steven jumps up on Amethyst and Amethyst flips him forward onto the ground. Amethyst is shocked to see Steven there and Steven asks if she is secretly a wrestler. Amethyst tells him that she secretly is a wrestler and this excites Steven. Amethyst tells him that often times, she comes over here and does this because here, nobody will tell her what to do and she can do whatever she wants and everybody loves it. Steven asks if he can join in, and she says that he can become her tag-mate so long as he doesn't tell Pearl and Garnet. Later that night, Steven dresses up as a tiger and calls himself "Tiger Millionaire" and he and Amethyst go back to the wrestling match and fight another guy.
