Role-play title: [align=center] Starving [/align] If I had a distinguished record in SCW before I took my leave of absence, I would proudly announce that I’m back and say I’m “hungry for more”. But as you know, ever since I shockingly returned one year ago at Tactical Terror, my oblivion run in SCW was nonetheless a laugh to scorn. It was a disappointment beyond measures, and my record itself consumed my reputation. I had too many losses on my record and too many burdens on my shoulder. I was on a rough surface at the time, and everything seemed to go downhill the moment I stepped between the ropes. Some of my friends were telling me that I was just not as skilled as the other competitors because my in-ring experience were not equivalent to the professionals that were participating in the sport. Some say, SCW left me in the dust when I left SCW with vengeful intentions. While others say that I had no talent whatsoever, and it best for me if I stop altercating with myself and just call it quits. But the fact of the matter is that the main problem I was facing is what Speed, Christian Savior, and even Jay Gold pointed out. I was over my head. Deep inside…I knew that I didn’t care about SCW as much as it cared for me. I mean, I remember back in November 8th, 2006 when I had my return match against Josh Judson (The current number one contender for the SCW Championship). The feeling in the atmosphere was unbelievable. I couldn’t have compared this feeling to anything I had ever experienced in my life. It was just splendid and superb. The fans loved me, the sponsors hyped me, the locker room was shocked, and on top of it all…my match was right before the main event. Just look at it. For a person who left SCW right before the first annual of Rise to Greatness, has vanished from the spotlight for what it seems “decades” has come back, and it felt like all eyes are on him. I felt as if I was the SCW Champion and then some. But what brought me down to my knees is that I was really over my head. I believed I was something I’m not, and I believed I did what the elite of the SCW did. On the night that I returned to have my first match…I already thought I reigned supreme. My ego blew up, and even though I knew hundred percent I was going to loose against Josh, I gave in to the fans. I could have cared less how I would have performed on November the 8th. All I cared about is the fame and the hype that was given to me. shameful… Especially from a superstar that was one of the first person to change the face of SCW. I am believe it or not, a root to SCW. I am what helped SCW to grow in its early stages, and I build my whole career right on top of this foundation. I had so much potential back then, that it made everybody think at home, that the moment I returned I was going to have such an impact on SCW that it would have caused it to change dramatically. But what really happened is the exact opposite. Not only did I lose my first match, but I even lost in my own hometown against Colby Proof. But right when you though I was on shaking grounds, and still had an opportunity to brush my ring rust, I was thrown in a dark match, and lost to one of the most disgraceful SCW wrestler of all time. The Spectacular Ninja. Yes, I know. It’s something you would never expect from a wrestler who entered the “Taking Hold of the Flame” as the number one entry and became the fourth last person to be eliminated. Or the average wrestler that was once thrown in a six-way inferno Hell in a Cell match for the North American champion, and was expected to eliminate every member in the match because that was Oleska’s “special” stipulation. Or what about the fact that I was once the number contender for the SCW champion and never got my deserving shot? *sigh* I guess the only option I have left is to continue where I left off. Now I know it’s not really a comfortable place to start, but what other alternatives do I have. On July 17, 2007 I had my debut Rise to Greatness match against the returning Cid Turner. After I lost the match as well, I saw sufficient amount of signs that vitally explained to me “it’s not worth it”. I was heartbroken after the match, because quite frankly, enough was enough. I wasn’t shifting myself to any level, and if I stayed on the statues I was currently on, it wouldn’t have brought me nowhere. I would have been a jobber that once had potential but was never good enough for the upgraded SCW. So this is what I did, I had three matches following Rise to Greatness. One match against David Swartz which ended up in a draw, a tag team match w/ Mr. Showtime versus. Team Turner, which resulted as a loss because my own partner turned on me, and I had one more match on August the 22nd when I was facing an Australian Aussie…who I also lost to. Taking a leave of absence wasn’t a choice for me, it was a must. Something similar to do or die. I obviously picked do, because I just needed the extra time off. This was the perfect time for me to start focusing on everything that was going on. Not just in the wrestling world, but also the life outside of it. This was the time for me to take care of things, and that’s exactly what I did. I started pushing things aside, and I set my priorities straight. Now I feel fresh as a new born, and ready to overcome the obstacles that every wrestler is set to go through the moment they begin their career. I know I can’t turn around now…I decided to re-enter the ring for the second time. And this time around…no second chances will be given. First attempt was a known failure, and everybody evidently knows that. My main mistake was like I said…all I thought about was the fame and the hype…but this time it’s not about that. Right now, the only thing I’m hungry for is success. That’s all I need. After I capture it…everything else will come with it. So like I said…its time…this is the “survival of the fittest”. Only the strong will survive in this game. The weak will starve to death…. [align=center] ====================== [/align] [ The scene opens up inside a comely room where a chair and a couch are set. Around the walls, few closets are located where quite a number of books are stacked on top of book shelves. The thick carpet that covers the whole floor is a grayish color with manifestly black dots that readily stick out. On the chair, a young attractive Russian woman is taking her seat with a pad and pen in her hands. Meanwhile, right in front of the chair, the couch is set right next to wall, which is currently reserved by the six foot two, two hundred and sixty pound athlete; Mayhem. ] (Mayhem is dressed in black sweater pants that carry the logo Nike below his waist, with a tight white t-shirt that goes with his black and white air forces. The Russian is inside a tight business gray suit with high heels to match.) Akilina- So Mayhem, with this being our 8th session thus far, I must say that since you came here you changed quite a bit. Mind telling me why all of a sudden I get this positive vibe from you? [ Mayhem smiles a bit, before rubbing his face with his hands. Mayhem- It’s just that I’m really really excited. As you already know, I am finally coming out of my leave of absence, and I will be once again finding myself in the midst of all things. Akilina- So I guess things are getting better and better as time passes by huh? Mayhem- Oh definitely. The moment I temporarily isolated myself from SCW, I been given the time to take care of things, that just had to be taken care of. With the leave of absence, not only have I found the extra time to spare, but I have also ordered myself a personal wrestling trainer. Since after I lost to Claire, I have been hitting the gym week in and week out. I have also been on an extreme healthy diet. Eating nothing but vegetables, fruits, meat ect… Akilina- Then that means, you’re mentally feeling great as well. Mayhem- Yeah man…I’m good. Real good. I’m not going to lie though; I am a bit anxious, but I think I will do just fine as time passes. Akilina- Good to hear that Benny. But as your psychologist, I do however need to forewarn you about what is on stake when you return to the SCW: Mayhem- What do you mean? Akilina- Well you do know that, if things don’t work out the way you would like them to, you won’t be very pleased. Mayhem- I know that. Akilina- You might also become very frustrated when you find yourself in the same hole, when you returned to the SCW a year ago. I could only recommend you to stay positive no matter the outcomes in the near future. Mayhem- Yeah, I feel where you’re getting at. But Akilina…when I go back to the ring, and I get the feeling that I so much adore…things will instantly change. I don’t care how my first matches will turn out; all I know is that I’m going to whip some ass. Before you think that, all I’m concerned about is success, realize that not only do I have wins on my mind, but also physical damage. I love what I do in SCW…I love wrestling. It’s what I do, and it’s who I am. Many people that join under our roster, come here for only one reason. That is to boost up their egos. I honestly have nothing against that, but I know that I am far different that 90 percent out of the members that are currently contracted to my federation. When I go after the things I’m chasing, I do it out of the love for it. For an instance, when I want to entertain the crowd with 15 seconds of pure adrenaline and ass kicking, I do it because I love the reaction from the crowd. And because I feel the wrath of my own power, when I smack my opponent down on the floor. Wrestling for me is an art…its something that draws so many peoples attention, because you never know what to expect. Wrestling is something unexplainable. Its love, passion, suffering, adrenaline, pleasure, hype, … all in one box. And another thing Akilina…it’s something that makes me happy. Akilina- And that’s exactly why I wanted you to consider if you really wanted to return. Mayhem- huh?...why? Because wrestling makes me happy? [ Mayhem turns to look at Akilina with a confused look ] Akilina- Yes Benny, that’s exactly why. Mayhem- I don’t understand you… Akilina- You see Ben, you just told me that wrestling is something you can’t explain. Everything you love, you find in wrestling. SCW makes you happy right? It’s a place where you can call home correct? Mayhem- yeah…exactly. Akilina- But what if you find out that, the only thing that is capable of making you happy, makes you disappointed at the very end? Mayhem- hmm… Akilina- Remember, you’re first run in SCW as you said, was really poor. You had times struggling to figure out why you still wrestle. You lost matches after matches. Everything you ever cared about went down the drain. So what happens if it all happens again? What if you don’t get the reaction from the crowd that you so much adore, what if the outcomes of the match stay the same…what if you keep loosing. And what if you only participate because you can’t think of anything else that makes you happy? [ Mayhem lets out a brief sigh ] Mayhem- You don’t understand Akilina. My first run in SCW was not so great, I understand that. And yes I’ll even admit that I didn’t have no fun whatsoever when I participated in the ring. My motivation wasn’t there, and I was almost never determined to win. I only pushed myself, because I didn’t want to go nowhere else. But you must understand…almost two years ago my father past away. My family was having troubles to pay the bills, and I was living in a ghetto. I decided to come back, because it was time for me to make something out of myself. I couldn’t allow myself to pout over one match, and I had to let the world know I’m in this for good. Winning isn’t everything to me right now…it will become something legitimate in a few weeks, but right now…all I want to do is what I failed to do when I returned one year ago; and that is to make an impact. Akilina, you don’t have to inform me that I wasn’t happy, and I lost almost every match I was in…I’m pretty sure my opponent is going to do that for you. You just have to realize that, if I really cared about gold and wins then I would have stopped this a long time ago. The moment I found myself in a slump, I would have stopped, the night on March 14, 2007 when I lost to a homosexual called Brian Kinney…I would have stopped. You see girl, I could and some even thing I should have stopped this a long time ago, but imagine if wrestlers that once were in my position just quit because their careers were going downhill. Take Greg Cherry for an example, or even The Real Speed. They all had their down and lows in their career. Greg even admitted that when he started off in the SCW he was unable to defeat his opponents even if they were tied on the ground. Everybody is going to go through a bad phrase in one way or another in their career. I just had to go through it because I believe I returned in the wrong time. Akilina- What if you don’t achieve yours goals though? I mean…how much time do you really have left before you might realize that nothing happens to work. Mayhem- *sigh* Trust me Akilina…I am going to achieve my goals. I know you’re here to help me and whatnot, but really…who is anybody to say what I’m going to achieve and what I won’t. The only person that can answer that for me is myself. Only I can push myself to the limit. The mood I’m in right now is super, I feel determined. I actually feel like I have something to wrestler for. I remember last year, I was angry at the booking management because they didn’t give me the wrestlers I wanted to fight. This time around, I don’t care…I just want to whoop that ass. [ Akilina laughs a bit ] Akilina- I see…so I guess this is really it. Did you talk to SCW management about your return? Mayhem- Oh yeah, I already made it evident that I’m coming back. I had one of my road agents to call up the booking management, and tell them I want a match before tactical terror. I also indicated him that he should be sure the management should book me an easy challenge. In that case I have an opportunity to get my momentum going. Akilina- What if you loose? I mean, I’m not saying you’re going to, but if you do happen to not succeed, do you think you’re going to find yourself in the same mood you were in last year? Mayhem- *tst* nah, not even. That’s not even my motto girl. Winning wont make me happy…entertain the crowd, whipping ass, and get pleasure from all of that will make me happy. Forget success at this point, I’m not even going to get into a statistic stand point right now, because it’s not essential. My first opponent will only get what is expected from me. An ass whipping of a lifetime. Whether I’m going to come short or not, my presence will be felt on Wednesday. Another thing you should not worry about is me feeding the energy from the crowd. That’s something else I plan not to do. To worry about the reaction from the crowd, because I know it’s not like they waited for me to return. Heck, I don’t think they even feel the difference whether I’m active or not. So it’s all good though… Akilina- So the crowd is also one of your last worries. Mayhem- Yeah, but I mean…the reason I feel like the audience and positive statistics are in the schemes of things, is because I know that at the end of the day, everybody is going to love me. If I just do me, and I concentrate on the basis I know I’m going to succeed. And when I do, everything that I now am not so worried about will come in afterwards. The fans, the fame, the success, everything. I just have to chill, and make sure my concentration doesn’t drift away. Akilina- Good to hear that. If you head is cleared right now, it seems like you’re already ahead of things. Mayhem- Yeah, but I’m going to do things one at a time. Akilina- Yep and make sure you don’t budge. Mayhem- Don’t worry about that. I’m going to stick to my intentions. Things wont be blown out of proportion…everything will work fine, even if they don’t always go according to plan. Akilina- Exactly. [ Mayhem gets up from the couch and sits up, he then faces Akilina ] Mayhem- Well thank you for your time A, but I think its time for me to head out. Akilina- Alright. Mayhem- I think I’ll see you next week, if not then it’s because I’m probably booked and have to hit the road earlier then usually. Akilina- No problem, and if we don’t happen to see each other, we can keep in contact. Mayhem- Yep. [ Mayhem leans forward and hugs Akilina and gives her a kiss on the cheek. He then gets up and goes to walk out of the door. ] The scene fades. [align=center] ====================== [/align] Scene 2: [align=center] Hungry [/align] [ The scene opens up outside in a parking lot, where Mayhem just has entered his car. The scene opens up inside his car, and we see Mayhem laid back with his cell phone in his hands. He is at the moment dialing a number to talk to someone. After punching the digits, Mayhem rests the phone on his right ear, and waits for a reply. After a brief silence, somebody answers. ] Mayhem- Yeah Minimi it’s me. [Waits for reply] Mayhem- Nothing much, just got back from the psychologist. [Waits for reply] Mayhem- It went fine. Everything is in order man, what about you? What have you been doing? [Waits for reply] Mayhem- Ah that’s cool, but hey listen. I got some news. I just received a text message from my manager, and he explained to me that I have an upcoming match, this following Breakdown!. [Waits for reply] Mayhem- yeah. [Waits for reply] Mayhem- Umm…Matt Hodges I believe. Hold up…yep, its Matt Hodges. [Waits for reply] Mayhem- Well, you remember when Show turned his back on me? [Waits for reply] Mayhem- Well, on that night, it was me and Show versus him and his partner James Exeter. [Waits for reply] Mayhem- What do I know about him? Well—not much. But by the looks of his profile which I checked few months ago, its seems to me as if he tried for the girls volleyball team back in high school. [Waits for reply] Mayhem- (Laughs) yeah man. [Waits for reply] Mayhem- I don’t know if he made varsity. [Waits for reply] Mayhem- Umm…well from my manger I heard one of his finisher is the Swanton bombs, and it does seem he knows his way around the top ropes. So he’s a high flyer indeed. [Waits for reply] I’m not too sure, but I am positive that he’s been active the whole time I been away. I however also heard that Team Turner is dead. James Exeter is currently on his leave of absence, and as far as Cid Turner is concerned…he vanished after Jay Gold embarrassed him in front of the whole world. [Waits for reply] Nah, he simply beat him. I don’t think Cid Turner could have dealt with it though. But yeah- I don’t really see Matty boy such as a threat. You can tell that he’s losing his interest. I mean, he was booked last week to fight Calvan Greene, and none of them showed up. [Waits for reply] Oh really? So he beat St. Clair? Well maybe he can use that against me I guess. The last match he had was the same opponent I had before I took a leave of absence. [Waits for reply] I’m not sweating it though. I know he beat him, and I lost to him but now it’s different. If I was to face St. Claire again, I’m sure I would defeat him. [Waits for reply] I know it sounds all talk, but I guess I just have to prove myself facing this cheerleader this coming Wednesday. But hey, I did mean to ask you one thing. Wasn’t Matt part of the trio tournament? [Waits for reply] Oh alright. Well at least he made past the first round. But anyways, I need to go man. [Waits for reply] Yeah, but hey one more thing though. [Waits for reply] You know that I’m selling my house right? [Waits for reply] Mayhem- Yeah, I don’t feel like living in Boston anymore. Its time to move unto bigger things. [Waits for reply] Mayhem- Bigger fish to fry?...Man I said its time for me to move unto bigger things. [Waits for reply] Mayhem- Well, because I want more from life, and more from SCW. [Waits for reply] Mayhem- Exactly Minimi…I’m hungry like a beast right now. But hey, let me cut you off though for real. I just wanted to tell you about the news. And Its 5:39 right now and I told my trainer to meet me at our local gym at 6oclock. So, till next time lil cuz. [Waits for reply] Mayhem- Alright, and don’t forget to get my things packed. I need everything ready as soon as I come back. Alright man, bye. [ Mayhem hangs up the phone, and inserts his keys into ignition. He then drives away from the scene. ] [align=center] ====================== [/align] Promo: [align=center] Full [/align] Mayhem: Ladies and Gentleman…the one and only is back on the move once again. As some of you know, my last appearance on live television goes back to August 22nd when I was facing St. Claire. Unfortunately I lost my match, but it’s all good. Every winner knows how it is to lose, and every true fighter knows how to never give up. I however, will not get into a dull speech trying supposedly to make me look like a survivor, but instead simply tell you…I’ma keep it moving. After 47 days of being inactive in the SCW, I honestly have to admit that I’m actually glad that I’m back. I’m excited to start my adventure once again, and I know this run will be an official one. I say that because unlike my other promos where I just blabbered how I’m going to do this and do that, here I will simply announce that Mayhem is finally back with full potential, and ready to whip ass like he once did in his early stages. This Wednesday I’m left of facing an average Joe called Matt Dodgers. Now, I told my road agent to clearly explain to the booking management that I just want an “easy” match to start off my run once again. As you can see, the management did almost the exact opposite. They didn’t give me a simple match that I could have easily prospered-no…they basically gave me a win right of the bat. Now Matt, before you jump in and try to shut me up by saying how I have no right being cocky, let me just indicate that…I know. But you know what Mr. Dodgers? I feel that you don’t have the right of doing anything anymore. You shouldn’t even be allowed to reply to this promo because it’s evident, that you don’t even care about wrestling anymore. I’m not going to sit here though, and start bashing you because I have nothing better to do. I know as an observe Dodgers that ever since you signed an SCW contract you and your team were pretty successful. You and Exeter won couple of matches during your stay, but unfortunately, with your master Cid Turner out of the picture, you’re basically a lost puppy. I say that not to make you look untalented, I’m not going to lie, you are, I say that because ever since you stepped foot in the SCW you always had Exeter on your side. Without the man that was one man short of headlining SCW biggest pay per view, Matt Dodgers would be an ordinary name that came out of a development fed. Face it Matt, after July 17, you and Exeter were a successful duet. But without the man that shocked the entire SCW in your corner, you’re basically left of with nothing. I know that you got the pin from most of yours and Exeter’s opponents, but the fact of the matter remains. The moment you came in the SCW, you only had one singles match; and that was against St. Claire. Where as your own tag team partner had at least two. Not to forget the fact that you WERE booked last Wednesday to face Calvin Greene, but unfortunately the matches was thrown out of the line up because none of you ignoble clowns cared to show up. That just tells me that, without you’re guiding angels (Exeter and Cid) you’re destined to fail. You’re not meant to be here anymore. You should NOT be allowed to wrestle anymore. I mean come on…who really cares about stars that came from development feds except for David Miller (former Majestic champion) and James Exeter (the second last longest man in the taking hold of the flame)? Matt Dodgers? I don’t think so. But you see Matt, don’t take this the wrong way and think I’m trying to degrade you just to say anything that sounds insulting. I know that you have some talent in you, and have more in-ring experience then I, I’m just saying that SCW isn’t the place for you. Heck, with Exeter and Cid out of your misery life, no place is. So what I suggest for you my friend is go back to Miami’s golf club where you’re “most wanted” and enjoy the rest of your life playing a sport where you don’t even have to rely on Exeter. I’m sure you’re going to be happy knowing that you finally can stand on your own two feet and feel like a man…once and for all. As far as I go…I have minor things to worry about at the moment. That concerns you, and the short weeks that are ahead of me. That means, from this day on I have plenty of time to take it easy, and rise to greatness…one step at a time. I just need to make sure I don’t fall off the ladder like last time .Because God knows if I do… I will be unable to get up again. |
