Season 4.0[]

ACME's first ever opponent was Bust-O-Matic. Bust didn't have the same kind of power or fast spin up as many spinners, but it did have the advantage of not damaging itself. The first light hit from its cage spinner seemed to kill Acme, but after the next Acme started moving again. It paused after the next hit. Every hit stopped Bust-O-Matic's weapon, but Acme was unable to stay on it and it spins back up again. At one point, Acme was able to stay on Bust-O-Matic when the cage stopped and it rattled off a multitude of drum hits like a machine gun, but to no avail. Then, Bust-O-matic got away and spun up again, and the next hit was a big one. Acme's drum fell off and it was stopped. Bust-O-Matic won by KO.

Season 5.0[]

In its first match, ACME Surplus Fighting Robot faced Widowmaker 2. Widowmaker won a 28-17 judges decision and ACME Surplus Fighting Robot was eliminated from the competition.
