[ Backstage. Fame, Reed, and Terri....in the hall. Reed seems distant and dreamy. ]
Terri: "What's wrong with him?"
Fame: "He found a girl."
Terri: "A GIRL? A real, live girl?"
Fame: ".... I'm not sure. We think so though, and even if it ain't, it's a good place as any to start."
Terri: "What's her name? I pity her already."
Fame: "I think May or something."
Terri: "May?! Never heard of her."
[ Bobby Johnson and Image walk by, Image with the W2K Championess title in tow. Apparently, they're still exploring the arena. Once they pass, Fame notices a red Terri. ]
Terri: "I HAVE heard of her, though. I wish I could just be handed a title."
Fame: "Didn't she like, toss it out and then like, re won it or something? Who cares. It's just the girl title anyway, no one takes girls seriously."
[ Terri elbow shim hard in the stomach. He doubles over. ]
Fame: "... cept you that is..."
Terri: "Maybe I care, Johnny baby. Maybe I care alot. Maybe even more than I should, but definately better than she does. I think I might have to do what's just and rectify this situation soon."
Fame: "You've rectified me..."
Terri: "Shut up."
[ Fade. But Drums blast over the PA system.... as "Fallen Angels" by RA blares... everyone stand sup wondering who's theme it is... and when the drums cut, and the lyrics kick in, out walks.... DAMIEN DESTRUCTION AND CHRISTIAN MICHEALS.... the crowd goes nuts as two members of Synergy are on their way down to the ring... ]
Macklin: "Whoa, Michaels kept his promise!! He's here, and he's got Destruction in his wake!"
Askin: "Literally, Ed!"
[ The hit the ring, and pose, as flashes go off, and the music dies. The crowd dies much much later, but Cm grins. He takes a mic. ]
Christian: "Alot of you must have seen me get blindsided by JT Kash earlier in the week."
[ The crowd goes nuts, as the Kash Cult has grown considerably.... ]
Christian: "Yeah yeah, I think he's funny too. But what i think is funny is how he always manages to do his best work when no one's looking. Like, say, in a hole in the ring during the finals of a tourament *I* should have won. You know, to this day, I can't understand why when we fell through, he's announces as the winner because he's the first one to crawl out of a hole. Would that make the second twin a loser all his life? I say hell no! I say once again, JT Kash slipped through the cracks and took credit for someone else doing all the work, namely me getting the pin. But who's here? Me. Part time, but hell I'm here, He REFUSED to be here, refused. So what does that tell you? Now, I don't have a PhD in psychology, but that tells me,"
[ He points to his head. ]
Christian: "That his ticker is ticking, and it tick tocked back to the God of Wrestling Finals. Why else would he blindside me? Because he knows *I* made the pin. *I* won the God of Wrestling that year. He knows it, and I know it, and ALLLLLL of you would know it,"
[ He points at the crowd and spins around... ]
Christian: "IF the truth was known. So JT, how much longer can you live the lie? you started a snowball, and it's avalanching down around you,l because it's going to lead to the truth becoming apparent. I was to be Crowned the New God of Wrestling.... and you? You were supposed to waste away at midcard, with you rhalf assed drunk, pot smoking fans cheering you and complaining on the internet how you're not being used to your fullest potential! So spell whatever you want in your limp wristed fairy drawing in the air, but when it comes down to it, everything you spell will come out " F R A U D "."
[ He yells out to the crowd "he cant run forever" as "JT KASH JT KASH JT KASH!" chants go up from his cult, but the mainstream fans cheer the King of PWT... Damo points at few fans and threatens to come out there.... but doesn't. Infact, "Welcome to the Jungle" comes on, as Trunks Kenni walks out.... ]
Macklin: "What does Trunks have to do with any of this??"
Askin: "Hell if I know. Christian's having a pity party in the ring for a match he lost two and a half years ago, and I just ran out of tissues."
Trunks: "Chris, it's good to see you again. And Damo, too. Afterall, you and Damo and Nic, all three of you kinda left us all, didn't you? Became big stars and made Synergy. Infact, you became King of PWT, and Nic bacame a Hall of Famer and finally got his success as the ICWA World Heavyweight Champion-"
[ HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE POP ;) ]
Trunks: "Yes yes, I was impressed, too. And infact, all of you might like to know that right here, next week, Nic E Dangerously comes home... TO SAN ANTONIO!"
[ HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE roars, all over, as Damo claps and grins and CM smiles and nods. ]
Trunks: "Well, hell, that pretty much means the band is back together. But you know who else is gonna be at RAGE next week? Your daddy, Christian. The Jerm himself."
[ BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooo's all over, raining down like shatterd glass. ]
Trunks: "I don't know what his deal is, but he wants to visit. But, I got another announcement, and since Hamid's coming back next week for the time being, I'll get washed out so I want to announce this now. This entire week, people can register their tag partners by coming to me. And they wanna register, Chris, because if they don't, I'll pu tthem with someone for a huge tourney with the Tag Titles as the prize."
[ More boos... ]
Crowd: "LOTTERIES SUCK DICK! LOTTERIES SUCK DICK!"
Trunks: "Now, now, I know, I hate Lethal Lotteries too. That's why I've giving people a chance to find their own partner, because right here next week, I'll be announcing the teams, one by one. And anyone who doesn't like it, and stick it."
Christian: "What does any of this have to do with me? With Synergy?"
Trunks: "I'm so glad you asked... because everyone, bar none, that's on the active roster- and the active roster is whatever I deem it is, is subject to this lottery if they don't register. And since Dangerously's back next week, we all know that he and Damo are gonna lock each other at the hip for the next two years, and that leaves you in the dust, doesn't it? I mean, I know you think you're part time, but in my world, Chris, there is no part time. But, you can have a small preview, as you and Damo get to have a match right now, against two of the biggest men in W2K... Pat Legacy and Hell Razer!!!"
[ No music, as they rush out, and slide into the ring from the ramp... CM meets Pat with blows and blows and is pushed into the corner, and the bell rings, as Hell Razer is basically RAZED by Damo... He's plastered down without even so much as Damo moving his foot, and Damo looks down at him. He turns to Pat, and spins him around by the arm and sends him up for an atomic drop... it hits and Pat falls back into the ropes and is PLASTERED by a spear. Pat goes down, hard, and CM comes off the top with a "Southern Climate"... he hits it, and covers- ONE! TWO! THREE! Trunks looks on and shrugs, as that didn't quite go as planned. ]
Macklin: "And Synergy takes the win in less than what? Twenty seconds?"
Askin: "Just about. If I had blinked, I would have missed it."
[ Backstage, as BJ and Image are passed by Hank. ]
Bobby: "Oh no. I'm tolerated DVD being here. Barely. I'm even tolerating him winning a match. Barely. But Hank? Hell no."
[ Bobby takes him by the arm and swings him into his own forearm, Hank holds his nose, as Bobby crashes him into a wooden door, splintering everywhere. Bobby follows in and takes a phone off a desk, and rains it down on an unwitting Hank. ]
Bobby: "FUCK.... ALL.... THESE.... JOBBERS.... say one more word and I'll have to kill you!"
[ He beats it down two or three more times, and drops it as the bell in the phone goes "ding"... and then he rips up Hank, who's dazed and confused, and brings him out of the small office, and through the hall, past Image, who's enjoying one of those famous fine pastries, and to the double doors... BJ kicks it open and tosses Hank out and down the cement steps. He claps his hands together. ]
Bobby: "I feel much better now."
[ Ringside. As "Coming Undone Wit It" plays, and Terri, Fame, and Reed are all in the ring, getting ready for thier big match vs Kutter. ]
Macklin: "We just saw Bobby Johnson just totally take Hank out, and now we're gonna see what just might be Kutter Flash taking out Johnny Fame and Jon Reed."
Askin: "And Reed just found love, too. How sad."
[ Their music cuts, and Terri goes to the apron and out as "Floating in Darkness" comes on, twanging... and then exploding with the percussion, and the W2K Champion walks out on stage, belt around his waist. When the lyrics come on he just bolts into the ring, through the ropes and crashing two elbows into Reed, knocking him stone cold over to the corner, an ineffective double axe from Fame later, and he's beating the crap out of Fame, throwing him through the ropes like Godzilla crushing cars. Reed come sin with a chop block, but Kutter lifts a leg and stomps on his head when he skids to a stop.... Kutter lets up so Reed can lift his head, and then stomps him again!! Fame comes back into the ring, and cross bodies Kutter, making it easier for Kutter to toss him back in a fall-a-way.. Kutter Spins, as Fame rolls to his feet and comes at Fame... he goes for the GORE, but Fame leap frogs him, and points to his head, because he's super smart- he turns, and is cradled down into a cradle Piledriver!!! ]
Askin: "If only Fame had not shown up..."
Macklin: "Terri's have a coniption fit outside the ring!!"
[ And, she is, beating down at the mat, as Kutter covers Fame- ONE! TWO! NO!! Reed saves him with a dropkick to Kutter's head, knocking some juice out of the hair. Kutter stands up and goes for Reed... but Reed slinks and gets a drop toe- but Kutter doesn't go down, except the part when he brings an elbow down onto Reed's chest... Reed holds his lungs and coughs, getting ripped up by his hair, and put up for a brain buster... but Fame coems to the ropes and back with another cross body, hiiting him from behind and bringing Kutter down with Reed in some malformed Acid Drop that bounces Kutter's noggin off the canvas... ]
Macklin: "This match was all Kutter, but the two might have been able to get a groove-"
[ When he bounces, Fame catches him in a Bulldog, but Kutter shoots up and THROWS Fame, to where he ends up in a Tree of Woe!!! Reed comes at Kutter with hits, but Kutter grabs him by both hands to the throat, and picks him up in a double arm chokeslam, and goes to cover- ONE! TWO! NO!!! Fame flips to his feet and brings a heel kick to Kutter's face... grabs Kutter's hair and flings him back... Kutter races up, the monster that he is, as Fame retreats to the ropes... Kutter goes for his GORE again, but Fame leaps it, and he goes into the corner shoulder first. Reed and Fame both grab a leg, and go to wish bone, but Kutter brings them in together, and kicks them away... They fall back, and as they stand, Kutter comes back with a double clothesline!! They're flattened, and Fame is plucked up by Kutter and raised OVER HIS HEAD... and flung out of the ring to Terri, who tired to catch her hunny bunny, but ends up crashing to the floor with him.... ]
Macklin: "Reed's all alone in there..."
Askin: "Bad news for Jon Reed... great news for all the fans who want to see blood."
[ Reed pushes up into a stiff kicking knee to the face, swinging his arms over the top, but he's ripped by the ahir into a massive irish whip and into a tilt a whirl backbreaker, bouncing him like a ball over Kutter's knee... but Kutter forces him to stay here, hyper extending his back, as his pushes on Reed's kneeds and his chin, bowing him....then cradles the head and a leg, bringing him up and back down on his knee... Reed fidgets, and goes to hold his back, but Kutter brings him up again and this time in a Shoulder Breaker... laying him out on the canvas. He goes to the riing ropes and looks down at Fame and Terri- neither of which are trying to help- as both are just standing. Reed pushes up and GOOOOOORREEE.... Reed's left boot flies out to the third row as he lays motionless, and Kutter plants two hands on his chest. ONE! TWO! THREE! The bell rings, and "Floating in Darkness" by Fear Factory rocks. ]
Askin: "Did anyone ever doubt it?"
Macklin: "Kutter runs through Reed like a hot knife through butter."
[ Kutter celebrates with his title, even though it wans't even a title match.... and as Reed is tried to be taken by Fame and Terri, Kutter reaches down and grabs Fame by the ahir, pulling him in by way of over the ropes and into the ring... but his music is abruptly ended when "Superstar II" by Saliva comes on, and he looks towards the Entrance, ready to pounce... but the crowd goe sup in a huge tidal wave as WallStreet comes out through the crowd, over the rail and over the announce table, kicking over Askin's water as he blasts into the ring- Kutter sees it at the last second on the Jumbotron, and spins, just as Wally comes up full height- he swings, but Wally blocks it, and sends a shot to Kutter's face, reeling him back! ]
Macklin: "WallStreet just saved Johnny Fame from certain doom! And he has those really cool shades!"
Askin: "Who the hell cares? He knocked over my water... dammit."
[ Kutter is reeled by two more shots, and back into the ropes as Wally goes for a wilder swing, but Kutter ducks it, and ends up behind Wally, who mule kicks out of it and spins, grabbing Kutter by the head as the two lay blows into each other.... ]
Hamid: "WHOA! WAIT ! STOP! STOP OR YOU BOTH ARE TERMINATED!"
[ After a second, the two realize it's Hamid Ismaili speaking, and the come to a cease fire. ]
Hamid: "I'll do it too, I'll fire you both on the spot. But it needs to be said that WallStreet, I don't care for you or your kind, coming in here and acting like you own the place. You pathetic piece of trash! Mainstream break you? You have to hide under your roots? Of course, the GT network wants you in the limelight, and I have to conceede atleast that...."
[ He still has that envelope in his hands. ]
Hamid: "But WallStreet, Mister McCallister.. it's a double edged sword. You'll see soon enough that I always get my way, one way or another. It just sickens me that the first time you're in the arena, it's me announcing that you and Kutter Flash will have a contract signing next week, for a one on one match... at Cyberslam for the W2K Championship!"
[ The crowd roars, and WallStreet smiles, as he gets what he wants, hee hee. Kutter sneers, pulling his hair, and stomping around. ]
Macklin: "What big news, the Wrestling 2000 will play host to the Marquee himself, WallStreet McCallister!"
Askin: "Versus the blasts from the past himself, Kutter Flash. If WallStreet really wants to get to his roots, Kutter'll help him by putting him six feet under!"
Hamid: "So there you go. your money, your fame, your name gets you everything you could ever ask for, while everyone else can rot at the bottom of the totem poll. GT Network is turning this place into the dying days of WCW... and WallStreet is the Tombstone... but I'll put him to rest next week, as I guarantee, Mister McCallister, signing that contract will be the last thing you ever accomplish in your career!"
[ WallStreet shrugs, not knowing what that prophetic statement means. ]
Macklin: "Hamid genuinely doesn't like that guy, I guess."
Askin: "I'm actually a big fan, Im gonna go get an autograph ASAP..."
Hamid: "Now, resume what you were doing."
[ Wally was listening to Hamid, whilst Kutter moved to the back of the ring, in a three point stance... holding the title. As Wally turns, Kutter blasts him in the skull with the belt, laying him out... Kutter stands over him, hovering, with the belt locked in front of his face. ]
Kutter: "THIS IS IT! AS CLOSE AS YOURE GONNA GET! You're in a whole new fucking world now, Taylor. My fucking world! I bet you thought you'd get this massive fucking debut, fuckin streamers and a fuckin parade with everyone chanting your god damned name. They are. Just out of pity. I'm gonna dismantle you, Taylor. Piece by fuckin peice."
[ He stand sup his full hieght, looking down at Wally. ]
Kutter: "In my world, you don't get no fucking big debut. In my world, you fucking lick the bottom of the fucking canvas like all the other roaches. In my world, I'm the fucking Champion, Taylor."
[ He huffs. ]
Kutter: "And in my world, your days are numbered. Counting down, Until. You're out."
[ Kutter heads to the ramp, as Fame slinks in acting cocky now... He stands over Wally himself now. He looks around, making sure Kutter's really leaving, as Terri and Reed enter the ring. ]
Macklin: "Oh, now he come sin. How freakin' brave."
[ Fame reaches down, to check on... his shades. He plucks them off Wally, and puts them back on. He and his posse leave via the ramp, as the crowd chants. ]
Crowd: "WALLL STREEEET! WALLL STREEET! WALLL STREEET! WALL STREET!"
[ H'e breathing visably, and then KIP UP... as he stands tall, pacing around the ring as the crowd explodes. ]
Macklin: "He's up! He's up! Kutter didn't put him away on this night!"
Askin: "But does he want to be up, Ed? Does he want to head into Cyberslam against that beast? Does WallStreet want to put all his stock on the line, and end up on the losing side to who he calls Manilla Gorilla, a simple indy wrestler? Alot is on the line fo that Corporate Icon in the ring right now.... "
Macklin: "We are running out of time, folks. Next Week... the Lethal Lottery... Jerm in the house... Hamid in the house, and the Cyberslam Contract signing- WallStreet and Kutter Flash... and the return of NIC E DANGEROUSLYYY!"
Askin: "But then there's WallStreet's answer to Hamid's and Kutter's tomfoolery... GRR... am I heel or face? I JUST DONT KNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
