Promo: I Didn't Come Here to Start No Trouble

[Guest WrestlingDeacon]

In an airport bar halfway between Denver and Boston, the SWF wrestler known as Frost sits with his back to the bar and stares out of a half shaded window. Gray clouds full of rain hang over the dank Chicago skyline, a perfect metaphor for the Icelander’s emotions at this time. He swivels the ice around in his rock’s glass full of bourbon, minus the energy and will to even take a drink.

 

We're so bad we know we're good.

Blowin' your mind like we knew we would.

You know we're just struttin' for fun

Struttin' our stuff for everyone.

 

A lot has changed in the past month for Frost. He left the Magnificent 7 and vacated the ICTV Title, thinking it was the right thing to do to find himself. Yet, he’s maybe even more lost now than he was then. He’s having fun in the ring for the first time in his life and he honestly enjoys hearing the cheers of the crowd. Still…is that him?

 

Well, they call me Sweetness,

And I like to dance.

Runnin' the ball is like makin' romance.

 

He’s been so caught up with trying to take down Tom Flesher that it’s almost like Flesher still has a hold of him. Flesher still dictates his life. He’s had two shots at the World Title and lost them both because he was more concerned with Flesher than winning the belt. He didn’t want to take down Flesher for himself, but for everyone else he’s hurt and manipulated in the past. Frost wants Flesher to go down for TNT, Danny, all the fans and for the guys he’s still dragging around by the leash in the Mag 7. Winning the SWF World Title would be for him and him alone and is that so bad?

 

Part of the defense, big and bold,

I've been jammin' for quite a while,

Doin' what's right and settin' the style,

Give me a chance, I'll rock you good,

Nobody messin' in my neighborhood.

 

This week on Storm he has to square off with Jay Dawg and he could frankly care less. Drazon is not a competitor to take lightly, but the match means nothing to him. It feels like a place filler between ads, but then again all the matches feel that way. Everyone is just walking along in a straight line, wrestling their matches and nodding at King. Where’s the desire to really make a difference AND entertain the fans?

 

I'm the punky QB, known as McMahon.

When I hit the turf, I've got no plan.

 

Thompson has it. Well…TNT wishes he had it. He’s lost in the woods and wants Frost to hold his hand through it, truth be told he doesn’t know the way out either. One week Thompson is full of confidence and looks like a legend in the making and the next he’s crying puddles around his feet about how bad he sucks. He’d sock him in the mouth, but it wouldn’t do any good. If being the World Champion couldn’t set his mind straight and prove his worth nothing can. But is he in the same boat?

 

They say Jimbo is our man.

If Jimmy can't do it, I sure can.

This is Steve, and it's no wonder

I run like lightnin', pass like thunder.

 

Frost is always defining himself through others. He tried to ‘save’ Janus not for himself, but because HE thought it was the right thing for Janus. Now Sean Atlas is in the SWF and represents another soul need saving. Is it a soul worth saving? Or wants to be saved? Is taking a pawn in the Flesher war going to do him any good personally? What about him?

 

Come on everybody let's scream and yell,

We're goin' to do the Shuffle,

Then ring your bell.

 

“Flight 46 for Boston now boarding,” a muffled voice rings through the bar. Frost downs the booze in his glass and sits it on the bar. He picks up his carry-on and slings it over his shoulder. He trudges through the door with his shoulders stooped and his mind a blizzard of doubt.

SUPER BOWL SHUFFLE~!!!!!

 

Damn, that was sweet, Frost.

[Guest TheBostonStrangler]

Flight 46? You just HAD to throw in the 46-10 score in that Super Bowl, didn't you? Fuck you, you Icelandic Bear-loving bitch.

 

 

Good promo, BTW. Best promo with a song in it ever.

[Guest Ash Ketchum]

Edit: Double post...

[Guest Ash Ketchum]

I didn't even notice that, Strangler.

 

Does this mean that we're gonna see Frost tag with the Memphis Eel and The Fridge?

[Guest WrestlingDeacon]

Actually, I was referencing the 46 defense the Bears ran back in the day. I didn't even think about the Super Bowl score. Eerie.

Frost is party.
