Zack Malibu 0 Report post Posted June 15, 2006 Backstage in the locker room area, the backstage announcer to the stars, the man who tells it like it is...or at least holds a microphone up so others can...JOSH MATTHEWS~! is sitting down with the newly crowned HI-YAH Heavyweight Champion, the "Samoan Tsunami" FAQU~! JOSH Faqu, first of all, congratulations on capturing the HI-YAH Heavyweight Championship last week in that exciting cage match with Zack Malibu. FAQU Thank you, Josh. JOSH I have to ask though...do you find the victory to be...bittersweet? FAQU Bittersweet how, Josh? JOSH Well, I mean you and Zack, you've had issues as it pertains to the addition of The Wildcards to the OAOAST. While you won the match cleanly and fairly, not only did you refuse a handshake from Zack at the start of the match, but you refused one after your win as well. Not to mention... FAQU ...not to mention I didn't come to his rescue, right? JOSH Right. FAQU It's like this, Josh. Zack Malibu is a tremendous competitor. A man that has paved the way for all of us to be here doing what we do best. Even in HI-YAH, he took this title that's over my shoulder, and put it on a higher level than it had ever been. He went all around the world, taking on anyone and everyone, stepping up his game and raising the prominence of HI-YAH, which has been a home to me and my partner James Blonde for many years now. However, I didn't agree with a lot of his recent decisions, and I hate to say it like this Josh, but I told him so. We ALL did. Myself, James, Caboose...we all warned him what these guys were about. They're three snakes, waiting to bite, and last week they took that opportunity. We knew it was coming, but either Zack was too blind to see it coming, or he just didn't want to believe he could be wrong. I prefer to think it was the latter, because Zack Malibu is not a stupid man. JOSH So...you're saying by not saving him, it was...tough love? FAQU Sadly, yes, Josh. Was it sickening? Incredibly. Was it hard not running out there and going back through that cage door to save my friend? Incredibly. It's just that...for years, Josh, and you know this as well as anyone, Zack tries to rally for his causes. It can be distracting to those of us working our way up the ranks, because the man is so loyal to this company, we have an obligation to him. To run back in that cage though, Josh, you know why nobody did it? Because it would be like telling Zack we were wrong about him. It would be like giving him a get out of jail free card. He brought The Wildcards upon us, and now, it's come back to haunt him. JOSH It's come back to haunt the company too. They're bound to us, contracted OAOAST superstars. FAQU If that's the case, Josh, then I hope Zack does make it back, because for this to be the end, and have that on his head as his last act...it's a shame. It's a damn shame. Both men look at the floor, a somber mood coming over the interview set, as the scene fades out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
