Ricardo avoids harming Kid Muscle near the electric X, but teammates sabotage him by pulling a towel, causing a collision that sends Ricardo into the device. His former master urges him to stop hiding his true nature, intensifying his internal conflict between his heroic Muscle League persona and his darker dMP allegiance. As Kid Muscle applies pressure, cracking Ricardo's outfit, fellow wrestlers reveal a rumor that Ricardo murdered his master to conceal corruption by dark powers. Although Ricardo denies this accusation, the psychological strain forces him to surrender to his dark side. He transforms into Ricardo, the Lord of Darkness, and violently throws Kid Muscle into the Electrolix, triggering a massive explosion.
