King Cucaracha 0 Report post Posted July 27, 2005 (edited) Backstage we go, as a very nervous looking Josh Matthews is standing by. With one man on one side, two on the other and a whole host of officials standing in the wings, Matthews glances around and waits for his cue to start, in the hope that he can soon get the hell away. MATTHEWS Josh Matthews, standing backstage with Christian Wright and Bohe... Bohemoth glares at Josh, prompting him to quickly backtrack. MATTHEWS ...HI-YAH Heavyweight Champion, Bohemoth. Alongside Leon Rodez as well. Now, we heard a little earlier that OAOAST Chief Executive Bill Watts has made a huge match for License To Pin, in the form of Ultimate X. For the X-Division Title, first time ever in the OAOAST. Now, we'll get to that in a minute...but, guys, it's tonight that's obviously on your mind right now. You have to TEAM together here tonight to take on Peter Knight and Jay Richards. And the 'no contact' stipulation is still in place. Question is, can you two get along, or will you self destruct tonight. RODEZ Wel... Suddenly, Wright reaches from the other side and snatches the microphone from under Rodez's nose. WRIGHT It's not a question of 'getting along' Joshua. I've made my thoughts perfectly clear in the past few weeks concerning you, Leon Rodez. Until you change your ways, or are forced to change your ways, then you can never be anything other than a mortal enemy to myself and everything I believe in. We will never 'get along'. But I have enough intelligence to know that tonight isn't the time to take out my frustrations. Much as I'd LOVE to teach you a lesson, personally, I'm not going to happen tonight. All I have to do is hold myself back for three more days. A mere, three days. And then, I can do whatever I want to you! Rodez smirks, holding himself back from any physical contact. WRIGHT How we can co-exist tonight, I have no idea. But we'll have to find a way. Because I refuse to let you cost me the X-Division Title again Leon Rodez, much less my OAOAST career! Mortal enemy or not, tonight I am willing to participate in this match alongside you. All you have to do is listen. You listen to me and we will do fine. Let me do the strategising, then everything will come together. Oh...and do me a favour. Leave Peter Knight to me. You can deal with Richards. Leave Peter Knight in my hands, to my devices. Reaching over, Rodez takes the microphone back. RODEZ First of all...mortal enemy? Is this a comic book all of a sudden? What are you, 'Morality Man'? 'The Human Dictionary'? [i][b]"My loser-senses are tingling"[/i][/b] WRIGHT (off camera) Very funny. RODEZ You know, I'm sensing a lot of hostility here from you and your sidekick here and to be honest, I really don't get why. So, I made a few dirty movies... WRIGHT (off camera) [i]Hundreds[/i] of 'dirty movies'. RODEZ Hey, if you got it, use it. But, that's in the past. If anything, it should be me hostile to you. I mean, you broke a lava lamp over my head. Cost me the X-Division Title. Destroyed Faqu's leg. Busted up James Blonde's ribs. Got somebody to attack my sister. Cost me the HI-YAH Heavyweight Title. Twice. That's a whole lot to be hostile about. Yet, I'm not. I'm not getting pent up with rage and anger and turning into some emo kid who writes songs about clowns dieing and stomping on roses. Even after all that, I'm willing to tag with you tonight. And hey, after the show, maybe we can go out for a drink. Hit the bars, hit the clubs, hit the women. Not literally. That's abuse. But, you know, hit them from behind. Hit em up style. We can party all night. You know what I mean, right? Rock out with our cocks out. Hang out with our wangs out. The camera pans off to the right, Wright standing with mouth agape, staring in disbelief at Rodez. RODEZ Is that a yes? WRIGHT NO! I want NOTHING to do with you, Rodez! Nothing! The only thing I want from you is to take your beating like a man on Sunday night and to finally learn your lesson and change your ways! Until then, I suggest you get your head in the game. Because I refuse to have you cost me another match. Motioning to Bohemoth, Wright walks off, with his bodyguard following close behind. RODEZ Ditto. MATTHEWS Uhm...well, with that said, let's move onto Ultimate X Leon. First time ever in the OAOAST. And, I suppose it's only fitting that you would be involved. RODEZ I guess so. After all, it's no more than I deserve. At the risk of sounding big headed, I pretty much carried the X-Division on my back since the end of October last year. I was the one finding challengers. I was the one defending the title. Sometimes, it seemed like I was the only one who cared about the X-Division Title. Guys like Drek Stone want to say I was 'wasting my time' with the belt, but that's just plain wrong. I respected the title, the division, the exposure it gave me, the whole deal. Zack Malibu. Chris Stevens. Panther. The Blurricane. The Superstar. K-Money. I beat them all in the X-Division. When I came back, my intentions were pretty clear in my mind. Get my hands on Christian and get back my X-Division Title from The 70s Dude. A fat, talentless nobody who didn't deserve a shot at the belt, let alone the belt itself. I got screwed out of the belt and look what happened to it. Out of my hands, it got disrespected by someone who should have been on his knees, thanking God he even got the OPPORTUNITY to challenge for the belt! Josh, I didn't spend 6 months of my life defending that belt around the country to see it disappear off the map. Pent up anger released, Rodez smiles. RODEZ But, now, I've got a chance to get back the belt I never should have lost in the first place. Peter Knight...I've got a lot of respect for him. No problems with him wearing that X around his waist. Sure, he's a little taller than your traditional X-Division wrestler. And sure, he's a little heavier than your traditional X-Division wrestler. Heck, if I hadn't campaigned for whatever weight limit there was left to get dropped so I could get more challengers, he wouldn't have been the champion. But, like I say, much respect for PK. Wright, I don't need to say any more about. And then we've got Jay Richards. Part of 'CSI'. I don't know all that much about him, but if he's anything like his buddy Chris Stevens, I'll enjoy the chance to get my hands on him. Rodez sighs, leaning on Matthews shoulder with a smirk. RODEZ Pray tell Josh. How do you win an Ultimate X Match? MATTHEWS Well, there's chains over the ring in the shape of an X...and you have to shimmy across the chains to the center, where the belt is hanging. Then, you grab the belt and you win. Rodez pats Josh on the back. RODEZ Correct. So, really, it doesn't matter a whole lot who my opponents are at License To Pin. So long as I'm the one to climb across the X, grab the belt and retrieve it...it could be Peter Knight. Christian Wright. Jay Richards. Drek Stone. Zack Malibu. Dr. Steven Pigley. The Vampire Warrior. With a cough to interrupt, Matthews whispers something in Rodez's ear. RODEZ ...really? Him? MATTHEWS *nods* Mulling over his discovery, Rodez stands silently for a few seconds, before Matthews again coughs. RODEZ Wha, wha...Oh, yeah, sorry. Like I was saying...it doesn't matter who it is I'm facing at Ultimate X. Because, after six months as champion and after three months as former champion, the itch has come back. MATTHEWS Oh, man, I know the feeling. Did you sleep with an Asian too? RODEZ The [i]proverbial[/i] itch. To be X-Division Champion... MATTHEWS Oh. Of course. Rodez glances at Matthews, eyebrows raised, before shaking the thoughts out of his head. RODEZ It's been a long three months without that X wrapped around my waist. At License To Pin though, nobody and nothing will stop me from climbing across those chains and grabbing my belt back, becoming the two-time...two-time...OAOAST X-Division Champion. Nothing. With a last despairing glance at Matthews, Rodez shakes his head and walks off. Edited July 28, 2005 by King Cucaracha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
