PostOWA Promos

Before you get started here are the rules of the page!


-There is a TWO promo/2000 word limit for our regular bi-weekly shows and THREE promo/3000 word limit for our major events! For our side show Atlantis it is only ONE 2000 word promo.


- Promo deadlines are two days before the show (So, a Saturday show has a Thursday deadline for example.) The only exception is Atlantis which allows for a day before.


-If everyone involved in a match would like to extend or shorten the promo limit due to personal circumstances or preference, you have two days at the start of the new promo week to confirm with a member of the writing team the agreed upon limit for your match, if not it will remain the standard limit set for bi-weeklies and major shows.


-You must wait 48 HOURS before double posting. If your opponent has not responded to your first promo within a 48 hour period and you'd like to release another, you may do so. However keep in mind that with the promo limit, if you expend both promos, your opponent has the right to do their two (or three on a PPV week) uninterrupted.


-The page is not a place to make challenges or try to book matches!


-Do not break kayfabe! Remember that everything is entirely storyline based and there is no reason to either take things personally, or make it personal for someone else.


-Have fun! Enjoy writing your work and feel free to hit up the chat for feedback!

The Banshee
Re: OWA Promos
Post December 3rd 2022, 1:54 am by The Banshee
ODYSSEY PROMO ONE
Look Under Your Bed... Who's gaze is that meeting yours?

The camera opens up outside a small, wooded grove of pine trees, set against the Spanish night sky near the city of Seville. Sitting in the clearing is a small totem, sitting in a cone-shape and made with sticks and skulls. The totem then erupts into flames, the dry wood angrily crackling and hissing as the fire begins to slowly consume it. The Banshee then steps into the wooded grove, holding her OWA Undisputed Women’s Championship belt in her hand by the waist-strap, a look of rage flashing across her face before being replaced by a sinister smile.
 
FINALLY… THE BANSHEE HAS BECOME THE OWA WOMEN’S UNDISPUTED CHAMPION!!!

Thotyssey… did I not warn you about what would happen at Boiling Point? Did you really think that you would “outsmart, outlast, and outclass” The Banshee once again? The Banshee PROMISED that Thotyssey would implode! The Banshee PREDICTED that Angelina would betray Filth! And MOST IMPORTANTLY… THE BANSHEE GUARAN-DAMN-TEED THE HORDE THAT SHE WOULD LEAVE BOILING POINTTHE OWA WOMEN’S UNDISPUTED CHAMPION!
 
It’s been a hell of a journey… one that’s taken my entire career to achieve, but after three long years of scrambling and clawing my way up the ladder… I’ve now reached the peak of the mountaintop! And if there’s one thing that I’ve learned over the last year, it’s that I’ve finally overcome some of my past mistakes… mistakes that no longer matter, because this right here…
 
The Banshee hoists the belt up in the air like a knight holding a sword, which is immediately accompanied by the large “boom” of thunder, while rain begins to pour down heavily upon the grove, searing white bolts of lightning zipping quickly through the dark sky. However, the lit totem continues to burn as if no water has even touched it, the flames not responding whatsoever to the pouring rain that’s now soaked the grove and The Banshee both.
 
… is the only thing that matters on Odyssey. It’s the ultimate prize, one that Rebecca Filth was destined to lose… but Thotyssey and Llorona still present a dangerous and lethal alliance that impacts the entire Odyssey roster, which is why I went to others for help…
 
That’s where Bad Meets Evil comes in… It didn’t take much to ask them to watch my back that night at Boiling Point… Violet and Marie brought the pain right to those semen-slurping sluts, without even a second thought for themselves… And no, I didn’t promise them riches, a future title opportunity, or anything of the sort… They didn’t need much encouragement to slap the cum straight out of Felix and Filth's own lips, allowing me to pin that two-faced bitch Angelina for my first-ever championship…
 
However, Llorona isn’t resting on her laurels, and has already scrambled a half-baked plan to put the title back around the waist of Rebecca Filth… through a six-woman elimination title match, but it’s not just ANY match now, is it? No, Llorona is bringing back an old favorite… THE PROMETHEAN CHAMBER!
 
The Promethean Chamber is far more than an imposing structure… it’s practically a torture chamber disguised as a match gimmick... While my last appearance in a Chamber match wasn't very successful, this year is going to be far different… even though it appears that I’m at a disadvantage once again, since Llorona managed to squeeze all THREE Thotyssey members into the match itself, along with April Song and Elizabeth Karlson… yawn... In fact, it seems that EVERYONE wants a shot at my title… Did you hear that, Odyssey?
 
MY… TITLE…
 
Speaking of people that must clearly be suffering from delusions of grandeur, we must talk about my very first title defense, naturally the next Odyssey Main Event… against someone from Kingdom’s roster?!? How the hell does that make any goddamn sense!?!
 
Moreover, why did Kenny Drake pick MYOJIN, of all people? Nothing against them personally, they're definitely quite the accomplished Alpha, but the problem is simple:
 
THEY ARE NOT A MEMBER OF THE ODYSSEY ROSTER!
 
I hope the suits hear this, because I’m only going to say it once: If everyone in the front office wants to put their top contenders against me in hopes of taking away the very belt I spent years bleeding for, then so fucking be it… Bring your very best fighters, because there’s not a single name that strikes fear into me…
 
Because I’m the bitch that inspires fear into others, and this belt is just gold-plated proof that I can back up any claims I make!
 
When Llorona came out to interrupt my address to The Horde, that nacho-loving cunt claimed that I wouldn’t “have the guts” to defend the very title I took from Thotyssey during that glorified “two-on-one” match, so her statement already has more holes than the stall at Felix Hartley’s favorite truck-stop bathroom… so she tried to insert another of her favorites… Rin Asakura… no… Arasaka… no, that’s not it… well, not like it fucking matters, because Llorona was then IMMEDIATELY overruled by Kenny Drake… the KINGDOM GM, so my FIRST ODYSSEY TITLE DEFENSE… is against the Kingdom edgelord known as MYOJIN … WHY?
 
Make no mistake about it, it’s not that The Banshee fears the latest Golden Dawn outcast, a.k.a. Frontline’s newest member… it’s hard to keep track, because both stables seem to have revolving doors these days… but it doesn’t FUCKING matter which GM comes out for the latest dick-and-tits measuring contest… because there is NOBODY… AND THE BANSHEE MEANS FUCKING NOBODY… ON ANY ROSTER… THAT WILL EVER TAKE THIS TITLE FROM MY COLD FUCKING GRASP!
 
There’s a bigger reason that Kenny Drake made the match between me and Bedazzled Jet Li… Scott Oasis knows it… Llorona knows it… even the beleaguered sods in charge of Olympus know it…
 
ODYSSEY HAS OFFICIALLY SURPASSED KINGDOM AS THE PREMIUM AND DOMINANT BRAND IN ALL OF WRESTLING… AND EVERYONE KNOWS WHICH QUEEN CURRENTLY OCCUPIES THE THRONE…
 
Anyone with a set of eyes and a knack for recognizing trends already knew that this was the case a few short months ago, but now it’s no longer deniable, thanks to Kenny Drake’s little power move, when he inserted one of his top-tier fighters to try to steal my title away from me…
 
And to them, I simple say this: 

Good luck, motherfuckers…
 
And yeah, MYOJIN appeared to only pick this match… this LIFE-CHANGING OPPORTUNITY… because of their little spat with NAMI and Rin-Tin-Tin… fuck, I forgot the bitch’s name again, but they all just look so alike… And no, I’m not talking about the Asian heritage, or the fact that Odyssey has more Japanese women in its employ than a San Diego massage parlor… I’m talking about the fact that I’ve already put so many other fallen warriors into the fucking morgue, to the point that everyone’s becoming just another faceless victim, fallen to the Curse of The Banshee
 
Anyways, that’s fine if MYOJIN wants to challenge me over Ramuh-Arata again… but I hope you don’t walk in thinking this will be an easy lay-up to land the top title in the industry… It’s not going to be that pleasant and simple for you… 

I also know that you’re not a fan of being soaked in your own blood… if that’s the case, then you’re really set for a terrible time inside the ring with me, because I'm going to spill every drop of blood you possess in your little frail body, and I'm going to enjoy every fucking second of it...
 
MYOJIN isn’t just another body on Kingdom though… MYOJIN is also a former champion across several different organizations, including stints in OWA as a two-time Outlaw champion, and even once as a tag team champion, though I don’t remember who their partner was… hell, I’m not even sure MYOJIN remembers, but the point to take away here is this: The Banshee is not sleeping on the OWA 2021 Breakout Star of the YearThe Banshee has seen MYOJIN win plenty of battles where it seem they had a snowball’s chance in hell of survival… but not only did MYOJIN survive those skirmishes, but in some cases they even THRIVED under all that pressure! If there’s an ultimate underdog to be concerned about in the OWA, MYOJIN definitely makes a strong case for it!
 
However MYOJIN… have you actually fought a monster before? And no, you can’t count Arata casting Lightning 3 on Frontline or anything stupid like that… I’m talking about fighting a REAL MONSTER… a living terror that keeps even the bravest warriors awake in bed at night, pissing their sheets and clutching their teddy bear as futile attempts to feel just a bit more safe and secure… Even men like Arata feel afraid when up against forces too powerful and frightening to comprehend…
 
So it doesn’t matter to The Banshee that you know so many wrestling and martial art styles like Brazilian jiu-jitsu or Capoeira… or hell, you even listed karate as something you’ve added to your arsenal… I certainly hope Mr. Miyagi hasn’t been too busy being fucking worm food the last couple of decades, because all the car-waxing and fence-painting lessons in the world won’t help you survive your encounter with one of the Hex Girls… Because like Cobra Kai’s mantra says, “mercy is for the weak.” I will not be showing you any mercy, especially since you, MYOJIN, REQUESTED THIS VERY MATCH YOURSELF!  
 
Of all the other options… of all the other champions you could’ve chosen from… what made you decide on the Queen of the Monsters, MYOJIN? By your own admission, you are somewhat sadomasochistic and a glutton for punishment… but to challenge The Banshee in her first title defense?
 
That’s not sadomasochistic… that’s just fucking stupid… not to mention suicidal, and no, I’m not drawing any parallels to Japanese kamikaze pilots or anything… I’m simply stating the cold, hard facts, and the fact of the matter is this, MYOJIN… I’m not going to stumble out the gate… I’m going to set an example for everyone… If you plan on taking my title away, then you should be prepared to die for your cause... because I'm prepared to kill for it!

It didn’t have to be you, MYOJIN... but this path is one of your own making!
 
In case you’re still having trouble understanding the magnitude of your situation, then let me describe to “The Shining Star” in a manner that even a child could understand…
 
The Banshee is much more than the OWA Undisputed Women’s ChampionThe Banshee is the very nightmare that keeps grown-women, men, and all gender-fluid people up at night, afraid of the unknown creature lurking in the dark… If you don’t believe me, then why don’t you ask those Thotyssey skanks if they’re still checking underneath their beds and inside their closets for monsters… more specifically, the Queen of the Monsters

And speaking of fucking idiots, let’s address what that clueless Carolina, backyard BBQ-ing inbred dumbass Jeff X did at the end of Odyssey… that fucking moran just put the entire organization in danger! What Jeff, is it not enough that your short-sighted leadership and ill-advised antics led to devaluing the entire Kingdom brand… but now you’re spreading that toxic poison to Odyssey as well?
 
Goddamit, Jeff… As if Havoc wasn’t enough to deal with… but then again, he was too chicken-shit to challenge me openly, and has resorted back to possession, because he has no real power... the only real power on Odyssey now is this belt, and it’s not leaving my boney fingers anytime soon!
 
It’s looking like Kingdom is trying to assimilate Odyssey like they’re the Borg from Star Trek: The Next Generation… Hell, Scott Oasis probably wishes all his talent shared a hive mind, because it would mean people like me, Violet, and Marie would never get any kind of opportunity here, even when it’s most deserved…
 
Do you deserve this opportunity over any Odyssey member, MYOJIN?
 
Don’t burden yourself down trying to answer that question… because you’re fated to become nothing more than a corpse dying in a pool of your own blood… but even then, the hell you signed up for won’t be over… Do you want to know when it end for you?
 
That’s an easy one to answer… when you hear the Cry of The Banshee… then, and only then… will I allow you to die with some dignity…


It's no longer the Queen of the Monsters that's to be feared... The Hex Girls are now the most dangerous trio in all of wrestling... prove us wrong...

Elijah Hampton, Remington Ivory Prescott, DT The Ruler and Lazarus Arjen have spoken. It’s such good shit!

There’s no shortage of reasons for me to be excited and motivated for Kingdom and beyond. Ty and I have been training, working on being a cohesive unit, and honestly trying to get to know each other a little before we team together to challenge For the Minorities for those shiny OWA World Tag Team Championships. You have to understand that it’s not a coincidence or a random move for us to take up that challenge now instead of just waiting and waiting. You see, Jeff X and Christopher Sabertooth as a tandem was damn near unstoppable. It took….well, literally killing one of them to see their championship reign come to an end. We’ve been looking around the tag team division for some time and we were waiting for other potential teams to emerge. We really, REALLY like the way we match up against the new champions and that’s the main reason Emmy made the call and informed the Boss that we’d be using the opportunity I earned at the B.O.B. Games. 




Why would we, a couple of young runts just cutting our teeth in the business, feel that we have a good chance of winning a match against seasoned veterans who became World Tag Team Champions? 




Look at what they did after my match with Dampshaw. 




I’m not mad about getting sucker punched. Things like that happen and I’ve dealt with underhanded tactics from Asakura and his old goons in particular once before. But…my thing is, why? Two little scrawny guys like us getting blindsided by a super heavyweight mob boss and pro wrestling’s Dr Umar/Tupac hybrid was done for one of these purposes: 




Intimidation- They believe that them flexing their muscles and beating us down is going to scare us, make us believe that the matches are over before they even get started. That we’re going to be afraid remembering that ass kicking! Nope. 




Agitation- They want us to TASTE the thought of revenge! That we’re so consumed with trying to one up them for the beatdown that we lose sight of what our goal is, or why we’re in that ring in the first place. Not happening. 




Soften Us Up- Now this one I do admit is the flimsiest of my theories. If they WANTED to, they could have done a little more damage. But what’s to say they’re not trying to get some punishment in and maybe have us carrying an injury into that title match? 




Their Own Fears- This is what I think it is, personally. These guys don’t look at us and see losers…they see potential champions. Sure, they can attack us from behind, but they know that they can’t beat us in a fair fight. Or…they just fear that after all the talking, manipulating, hijacking television and all the other bullshit that they have done…it can all disappear in a flash thanks to two ambitious young men chasing a dream. 




Donovan, and I’m going to address you by your name and not give you any title or Ruler-speak or anything, I’m sorry to disappoint you. No, I’m not going to be a complete prodigy in just a few months and not even ten wrestling matches yet. I know that I lose focus, I know that I am a flawed human being too. I’ve….had a nice time at the bar here and there (You know what I’m talking about!) and maybe my win-loss record doesn’t reflect what you believe I should be just yet. Here’s the thing though: I signed up to be a professional wrestler for the long haul. You may not think so, seeing as I don’t live like a monk or a crime boss, but I am extremely interested in going about my craft…




But you and I both know I would not have survived training with the man that I did if I didn’t have a sincere desire to do this. You know where I come from better than anybody else in the OWA locker room except maybe Emmanuelle herself. I spent the better part of a year training under this guy. Every drop of sweat, every bruise, every bone broken…all of it to stand in the same ring that people like you have paved the way for me to fight in. HE paved part of that path. What is it that you don’t see just yet? The athleticism? I do alright, but I’m not HIM. You and I both know that he is in his own league.




The skills in martial arts? While I’m certainly no slouch, HE was born to be a walking weapon. 




The size? Well, I’m small. I’m obviously not going to have a growth spurt between now and the match that we have coming up, so I’ll have to make due with what I’ve got. 




Donovan. You seem to resent me. Why…I haven’t quite figured out why yet. Maybe it was because I was trained by someone who not only took your CWF World Championship away from you at the prime of your career…but also temporarily retired you. I am admittedly not fully familiar with how you broke into this great sport, but I have been nurtured by three world champions. April Song, Emmanuelle and Carlos Rosso have all passed along little bits and pieces of their knowledge, their mentality, their wrestling philosophy to me and I’ve absorbed everything. And it’s hard. I’m inconsistent. Sometimes I do need a voice screaming certain things in my ear to get me back grounded. 




This does not mean that I’m unmotivated…nor does it mean that I’m unprepared for you.




You, a veteran who has seen and done a lot to be sure, talking down to a rookie about winning championships is a very strange flex. And even stranger still is that you, someone who talks about being a Master or Ruler of things, couldn’t Master the Ascension to the Heavens ladder match at Final Destination, Your Rule of the Outlaw division wasn’t meant for particularly long either. I’m not saying I’ve even done anything myself, but for someone who has such a massive hard-on for consistency you haven’t shown much so far this year, have you now? 




Don’t get me wrong. You have a great deal going for you, especially against an opponent like me. Your strength is other-worldly. Your speed, given your size, is uncanny. Your knowledge of wrestling surpasses anything that I could dream of at a young age. And you, along with your partner, have made it pretty clear that you will do any and everything possible to retain your titles once they’ve been challenged for. All we did was issue a proper challenge and you came for our heads, so I can only imagine what you guys will do when hostilities are opened up for real. 




But maybe, if you weren’t so busy being an overly critical uncle, you’d see that there’s a little bit of something in me that could cause you problems. Maybe if you stopped looking for Carlos Rosso to stand across the ring from you, you’d see a Taniguchi Sena that could open your eyes to the future of not just the OWA Tag Division, but to professional wrestling’s future. It’s a future that’s still being built and still very much in the developmental stages, but the plans I’m very willing to share with you, especially the part where I take my knees and elbows and try to cut your head open the hard way with them. 




I don’t need any extra motivation to face a legend, but I can be a vindictive little shit when I want to be….




OWA Promos - Page 15 Logopi18OWA Promos - Page 15 Logopi18


DT, I thought you had better sense than to do what you and Raivo did. Both of you got extremely close to me showing you that the Platinum Standard isn’t some flashy nickname of mine. But…as it is now, my contract in OWA says MANAGER, not WRESTLER, so there is a very strict limit on what I can and can’t do. That limit doesn’t mean that I can’t have a considerable impact on how things play out. I’m not talking about sticking my nose in your business or playing things unfairly. I’m talking about making sure that Sena and Ty are ready for any and everything you two have.




Mr. Ruler, you’re a big bastard aren’t you. My specialty is giant killing. Christopher Sabertooth, Scott Oasis, oh yeah, I’m used to putting Ls into the columns of guys bigger and stronger than me all the time. Do you think that I’m going to let Sena walk into the lion’s den without being armed to kill the lion? Oh no. We have a strategy in place for you, big fella. And your buddy Raivo too. We are going to give you just a small taste of what hell I’ve put these boys through. If they can survive me and the beatings I’ve put them through, then that little scrimmage and face-saving stunt you boys pulled will be like dust on the shoulders. 




We’re going to have those tag team belts, boys, come hell or high water. But before we take your gold, Mr. Ruler, we’re going to take your manhood, your aura of invincibility, and your attitude. 


Be ready. We are.

The Banshee, Remington Ivory Prescott and DT The Ruler have spoken. It’s such good shit!

Re: OWA Promos
Post December 2nd 2022, 11:23 pm by Raivo
Fuck you For making me Pull a Nate Fiora


(The scene opens up in a dark room with a cloud of fog rolling in from an unknown source. The camera looks around as if from the point of view of someone who happened to stumble into something they’re not ready for. Soon the echo of Raivo’s voice comes from the void.)


Tyler…Kulina… What a mess you seem to have found yourself in.


(The voice of Raivo sounds as if it’s coming from every direction but as the camera pans around there is no one until suddenly Raivo pops into view.)


A mess you and your fucktoy buddy don’t understand at all. You know we’ve done enough in just a short time that people, they talk. For the Minorities this, For the Minorities that, and we’ve yet to even defend our titles before people. And yet it’s like we’re already legends. Which you know considering who we took this off of I don’t think it’s far off. That assumption that we’re legendary is just something people are finally acknowledging. 


(More tricks start to happen as Raivo walks off screen only to suddenly reappear on the other side as if he just came from there.)


It’s like a haze, the time For the Minorities has been in the background, working to undermine everything, take over the fed, and make our mark. People thought we was some cowards, some people who didn’t know what it meant to make a legacy. And because of that they doubted us, doubted our gumption and decided to write off what we are able to fucking do. Look I don’t mind that, adversity is my fucking thing, I’ve fought bigger people, I’ve fought people who others thought was going to batter my face in and I am still here. I am still Raivo, and that in itself carries a weight that none of these fuckers can carry. For the Minorities is now at a place where the roots have taken hold. It’s at a place that it can now grow, expanding into different areas of this fucking place and making it know that we are not leaving. Raivo is not leaving, DT is not leaving, For the Minorities is here to stay. And what’s so sad about this situation is you people are tryna up root something good for the soul here. Look at OWA, Look at what is being brought as challenges to these fucking titles. Look at the narrative being woven to try and dismantle what For the Minorities has worked so hard to achieve. 


(Raivo waves his hands and in the mist, images of Tyler and Sena both appear.)


Look at these fucking degenerates, look at them and tell me if you think they have any chance? Tell me if they are going to bring something to the fucking to the fuckign table when it comes down to it? I can tell you right now that these punks are nothing and are going to amount to nothing. You want to know why? Because they have yet to show they’re faces. I gave them time, I gave them a little bit before coming out here and dismantling them, but I have yet to hear from them. I don’t know if they have no balls, or if DT scared them the first time but let me tell you, my good graces are about to be fucking up. You know I wanted competition, I wanted people to come in hungry for a title, hungry to finally win a fucking thing to make them relevant but it appears they’re not ready for For The Minorities. And you know what, I'm glad it started now. I am glad people are realizing that it’s safer for them to not kid themselves and say they are ready for something they are not ready for. Because it weeds out the weak, it weeds out those unworthy of my presence, of DT’s presence, and the presence of these fucking titles. These titles now got some melanin to them and now are for the better for it. I mean look at what happened when I lost the Spartan’s title, people would talk shit and say that it now has prestige, but are they still talking about it? No they’re not. Do people care about the fucking World Championship? No because that white boy Bishop still holds it and is going through his Golden Dawn vs Frontline story for the fourth time but now they got to insert the Twinkie Arata. That yellow monkey, selling his soul to the whites is all I need to know that homie didn’t give a shit about his fellow minorities. Nah now For the Minorities can do it’s fucking job and show you misfits, you fucking degens what it means to be champions.


And we starting with Tyler and Sena. These are the ones who got a title match, and how? How did they get a fucking match without doing anything of importance? OWA is just letting anyone get a shot at this shit without proving anything. They riding the hype of a fucking manager who ain’t known success you might as well call her a female Carlos Rosso. It’s fucking tragic that the hype that follows them is going to get them fucking merc’d without any fucking discrimination. DT and I we got a job to do and that is to make these bitches fucking regret even coming into this match with a dream. You can dream big, but don’t ever dream to beat us. Because you gonna be living in a nightmare with me and DT just beating you beyond submission. Hell now that I think about it, I ain’t ever heard of Tyler Kulina or Sena, what the fuck do they think they got against me and DT? These lanky motherfuckers ain’t got shit against me nor DT, they ain’t got a leg to stand on, they got an overrated manager who is willing to shit the bed just to get ahead because they were unable to do so on their own volition. Hell the only thing Emmy is known for is screwing over Golden Dawn after they won, and even then she wasn’t shit when she was in the fucking match. I don’t know why Tyler and Sena want her as a manager unless they too want to reach the limit of Carlos Rosso, the man who never could. But you know let them do what they want, let them work with the people they want because they ain’t going to do shit while in this match. Hell I feel bad for Tyler because when I get to them I’m fucking putting his head through the fucking mat.


(Raivo waves away the mist and continues talking)


Tyler gonna be my bitch in this match, he ain’t gonna get a single lick of offense because I know he can’t I know looking at this scrawny ass bitch that he ain’t got shit in this fucking match. And that’s it. Because let me tell you something bitch. Look at me and tell me what you see. If you don’t see a fucking genetic speciman, a charismatic motherfucker and first and foremost your fucking superior then you are fucking lying to yourself. Because Raivo is all that and then some. Raivo has fucking gone through the ringer, fought people who said they was gonna end Raivo, and he still here. Because when people talk they talk as if they giving you a promise, as if they giving you they word but they never follow through shit. Bishop talked about fucking ending me after talkin all that shit and spitting him while he was dead but ya boy is still kicking. He still here so by my fucking count I win cause Bishop can’t keep his word. Jeff and Chris talked about getting revenge for their brother Bishop and they couldn’t do it. They couldn’t, won’t and will never fucking do anything because they are bitch made like Tyler and Sena. These fucking posers, these fuckers want something they are never going to get. And I get to be the person who gives that bad news. Hell, wait no this isn’t about me. This is about For the Minorities. Yes cause I get to fucking beat Tyler to submission. DT gets to demolish Sena. For the Minorities gets to show these two fuckers how we’re strong in our own right so how the fuck are they going to come at us in a tag match. Look I’d give props if there was any to give but I am here to tell you that these sons of bitches are in for a world of hurt and we are going to show them this friday. Hell if they even make it to the festival that’s going to be one fucking miracle. I’ve given you two too much of my time so I’m taking this back and telling you for once don’t show up to a match. Because once you are in that ring I am going to make you a fool and show you why you are not fit  to bein the same ring as a tag team champ. Fuck these chimps

Are You Ready?
Gujarat, India
Boiling Point Night 2

Chris Sabertooth’s lifeless body lies on a bench backstage.  His head is cranked in a direction it shouldn’t be and his eyes are open, but the color has already faded from his face.  Jeff X neals next to him, still in his ring gear.  His eyes are watery as he clasps the motionless face of his fallen friend with both hands.

“Chris….”

Jeff speaks to him, but he knows that no response will come.  He hangs his head low now, clearly grieving as he brings his friend close to him.

“Jeff…”

The voice of Michael Bishop is heard as he makes his way into the room, although Jeff doesn’t even acknowledge him.  As Bishop lays his eyes on the corpse of Chris Sabertooth, he pulls his championship close to him, as if for some kind of comfort, and runs his hand through his hair, sighing deeply.  You get the sense that he wants to grieve himself but he can’t help turning back to look at Jeff, who remains knelt on the floor, holding Chris to his chest.

“Bro…”

Still, Jeff doesn’t acknowledge him.  Bishop walks over and stands directly next to him, still looking down at Chris, sorrow plain upon his face.

“We’ll make this right.  Just tell me…tell US what you want to do.”

Jeff’s expression hasn’t changed a bit.  It’s like Bishop isn’t even there.

“Jeff…”

Bishop places his hand upon Jeff’s shoulder and the moment he does, Jeff finally stands to his feet.  As soon as he does, he heads towards the door.

“JEFF!  Come on man, we HAVE to come up with a gameplan here!”

Jeff, with his hand already reaching towards the door, stops in his tracks.

“Mike…”

Jeff finally turns towards his Frontline ally.

“….I love you brother.”

Bishop looks a little surprised by the response.

“I…I love you too man.  But what are we going to do about this?”

At that point, Jeff walks over to Bishop and stares straight at him with watery eyes.

“I need you to look out for the guys, Mike.”

“What?  What are you-”

“PROMISE ME!  Promise me you’ll look out for the Frontline…always.”

There’s an eerie pause between the two for a moment as Bishop stares back at Jeff, clearly confused.

“Of course.  You already know that’s a given.”

Jeff nods at Bishop appreciatively and turns, heading towards the door again.

“Hey Jeff…JEFF!”

Jeff stops again in the doorway and glances back at Bishop, who looks more concerned than we may have ever seen him.

“Where are you going…and WHAT are you going to do?”

Jeff takes a moment to respond, running his hand through his beard.

“Whatever I have to.”

As Jeff turns to leave, Bishop yells again.

“What the FUCK does that mean?!  Jeff…don’t you go doing anything fucking stupid!  Stop!  Talk to me man…Jeff….JEFF!”

But his screams are now aimed at no one as the door shuts behind Jeff.

“FUCK!”


Michael Bishop yells loudly as he hurls his championship across the room.  A loud bang is heard as it collides with the lockers.  Bishop swears to himself as he looks down at Chris.  We can visibly see his jaw clench as he tries to swallow the lump in his throat while staring down at the deceased Frontline member.

“I don’t know where the fuck you are Chris….but you know him just as well as I do.  And you know he’s about to do something dumb.  Just look after him, brother.  Please….please.”

Bishop gently pats his fist on the chest of Chris, the concern plain in his voice.  It’s obvious that he mourns for Chris while fearing for Jeff.  But he remains stoic.  The Champion is tough as nails on the outside, but even now, you can tell that things are weighing heavily on him as he thinks of the event that transpired that night…and perhaps more importantly…everything that’s to come as a result of it.

—-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

We transition to several weeks later.  Chris Sabertooth has been brought back from the dead due to the demon deal that Jeff made with Havoc.  And now, he stands on his front porch, leaning with his elbows resting against the railing as he stares out at the vast woods before him.  In one hand he clenches a bottle of Bud Light, and in the other he holds a lit Marlboro Red.  His face is completely devoid of emotion as he brings the cigarette to his lips and takes in a deep breath, exhaling a cloud of smoke into the air.

“The Frontline…you boys…you mean everything to me.”

Jeff pauses to take a swig from his drink before continuing.

“If nothing else is ever known…I want that to be clear.  My life has been filled with many people that I couldn’t rely on.  For a long time, I had lost faith in everyone…especially the people in this industry.  But you boys…you changed that.  You restored the meaning of the word ‘family’ to me.  You made me believe in this brotherhood that we all share.  And I don’t give a shit what anyone has to say…if you’re not a part of it, you’ll never understand.  The things we’ve done…the shit that we’ve all been through together…it’s damn near impossible to put it into words.  But I want you to know, in case…in case shit goes south…that I will always love you guys.  And I’ll always appreciate everything that you’ve done for me.”

It’s strange hearing the tone in Jeff’s voice.  Normally filled with confidence, he now speaks as if he knows something bad is coming.  Something that nobody will be able to stop.  He hangs his head low for a moment now, sighing deeply before looking back out at his land.

“I’m not an idiot.  Contrary to what many people may think about me, I do have the capability to think things through.  And I did just that when I made the deal that I made with Havoc.  I know that someday, that debt is going to have to be paid and, more than likely, I’m going to have to pay for it with my own life.  My brothers may not like or even understand that…but to me, that’s a price that I would pay ten thousand times over.  Because for you guys, there’s not a fucking thing in this world that I wouldn’t do.  My own life is a very miniscule price to pay to protect any one of you…and even after weeks of reflection, I can say with confidence that I would make the deal again.  I regret nothing about it.  Because I know, if the shoe were on the other foot…any one of you would do the same for me.  Hell, you all have.  You’ve all risked your fucking lives walking into my wars…wars that I started.  And we’ve given….we’ve given so fucking much..;”

Jeff’s voice trails off as he begins to choke up, but he coughs and pulls himself together as he hits his smoke once more.

“Especially you, Theo.  I feel terrible about the losses that we’ve all suffered.  Both mentally and physically, all of us have given so much to these wars that we’ve fought, but you?  You more than any of us.  You didn’t deserve this.  You didn’t deserve to have this kind of life.  Hell, you’re just a kid.  Or at least…at least you should have been.  You should have been the youthful, bright-eyed prospect that had the world in front of you…you should have had this entire industry to make you own as you pursued a long and fruitful career all in the name of the competition that I can obviously tell drives you every day.  But you didn’t get that.  You didn’t get any of that because you were robbed of it.  You were robbed of being fortunate enough to be able to make mistakes and learn from them.  You were robbed of having the innocent experience of being a rookie in this business.  And for that, I’ll forever be sorry, Theo.  You were forced to grow up way before you were ready because we…no…I dragged you into this war.  I dragged you into a situation where every single decision you made…every single move that you attempted…every thought that entered your mind…it could all very well have meant the difference between life and death.”

Jeff hits his Marlboro again, chasing it with a swig from the bottle.

“I never meant to put that on you Theo.  I swear I didn’t.  I know that Misaki doesn’t believe that and she will never change her mind about me.  Nor should she.  She’s right to look at me the way she does.  I’ve put you in more danger than anyone should ever have to go through and yet…you’ve always remained right there by my side.  No matter what decision I made, be it right or wrong, you have never once questioned me.  That kind of loyalty is something that I will never, ever be able to repay…but…I can at least try.”

Jeff takes one last hit from his smoke before flicking it into the yard.

“I won’t lie to you, I don’t know how much longer I have left here, Theo.  Odds are, not very long.  I made the deal that I made and I’m more than willing to accept the consequences…but while I am still here, I want to do right by the people who always did right by me…and that means you.  Theo…you might be the best man I’ve ever had the privilege of knowing, both in and out of that ring.  I never deserved to have you at my side, but I’m thankful that I have.  And in return…I know that it doesn’t make up for everything you’ve done for me…but while I’m still here, I at least want to make sure that you’re absolutely ready for the fight that’s to come.  Mike’s a fucking warrior.  I don’t need to tell you that.  You already know from firsthand experience.  But just because you’ve beaten him before, I don’t want you to think that this time is going to be the same just because that’s how it happened in the past.  This is the OWA World Championship that we’re talking about.  This is the one prize that Mike has worked his entire life for.  And he’s not just going to roll over and give it up easily…not even to you.  That’s why I wanted this match.  Because there is nobody on this Earth that can prepare you for Michael Bishop the way that I can.  Because there’s nobody more similar to him than me.  There’s nobody that understands everything that he’s had to go through to get there quite like I do.  You see, me and Mike…we share a lot of parallels.  Hell, the man is probably the best friend that I have left.  And, don’t get me wrong…I’m not rooting against him…but…I do want to make sure you’re ready.  I want to make sure you KNOW what you’re getting into.”

Jeff takes one last swig from his beer before setting it down on the railing.

“And you will after you finally take me on, Theo.  But know…I will not go easy.  I will not treat you as a friend on Sunday.  I love you as much as I’ve ever loved another man, but I will go into this matchup with every single thing that I have because anything less would be a disservice to you and your pursuit of the World Championship.  And you’ll probably lose.  Because that’s what happens to most people who step into the ring with me.  But maybe…just maybe, you’ll be different.  Maybe you’ll prove that you’re better than me…and maybe you’ll prove that you’re better than Mike.  And because I only want what’s best for you Theo…I sincerely hope that you do.”

Jeff glances up at the camera one more time.

“But I’m not fucking counting on it.”

HE ADJUSTED HIS OVERCOAT as a cold sea wind blew throughout the city while we fade in from black. He had to admit though, it wasn’t as cold as he had assumed when he decided to leave on this walk. It was deep into the night, and the city had all but fallen into a deep slumber after a long day of work and play. As such, not a soul could be found outside, save for Alexander von Zarovich. He had been having issues falling asleep the past few nights, ever since leaving Greece after his debut match fovr OWA against ODIN. Probably due to injuries sustained in the fight against the veteran, on top of his already nagging, lingering issues with his lower back. Typically, taking a walk would do the trick, and Alexander thought that it was the perfect time of night to wander the streets of an unfamiliar city, as the quiet night would allow him the time to be alone with his thoughts. Eventually, Alexander would find his way deeper into a much older section of the city. He twists throughout the narrow, winding streets old stone architecture providing him a more solemn scene as he would begin to speak.
 
“Often, I find myself doing this… walking around in the night. Sometimes, I come across something or someone, that inevitably benefits from my arrival. Most nights however, my nights consist of nothing more than aimless wandering.” He says with a soft smile. “So far, tonight seems to be one of those nights…”
 
He sighs as he adjusts his coat again.
 
“I would be remiss to not speak on what transpired on the last edition of Kingdom, well… what directly concerns me, at least.”
 
Alexander lets out a small chuckle before stopping at a corner. He leans against the stone wall and continues to speak.
 
“Odin, you came at me with every single thing that you had to give. You were dead set on not only reminding the entire world of the man that you once were, but you aimed to prove to them all that that man never truly died, he had simply just… went away for a long, long time. And I admit, that while I walked out of that match with my hand raised into the air, that victory was far from easily earned as I did so bruised, bloody and limping. Any other man would have fallen beneath your blade, Odin… but I am blessed by The Light’s Grace. I am her herald, her warden… sent here to sing her song… and unfortunately Odin, her Luminance is stronger than the resolve of a broken old man looking to reclaim the years that had been stolen from him by the cruel hand of fate.” He pauses for a moment and shakes his head slightly. “But that resolve of yours is still strong, and I am well aware that you believe this is not over between us. So, if you truly wish to stand against The Light once again, far be it from me to deny you that wish. And lucky for you, you will get that chance as we face each other again, not only in the B.O.B. Games, but in a match this coming edition of Kingdom when we team with our prospective opponents in the games… However, do not expect anything different to occur, as once again, you will fall… just one more step closer to your Valhalla.”
 
He pushes himself from the wall and continues to walk the dark Barcelona streets.
 
“As for your partners, I must say… ODIN was thrown into such an eclectic trio weren’t you? One of whom, is a man who represents a bygone era. Dick P. Slaughter… a ridiculous name, for a ridiculous man. You seem to come straight out of the mind of a naïve, overstimulated teenager trapped in the nineteen nineties, whose only understanding of what it means to be a man comes from his countless hours in front of features proudly brought to them by Cannon Pictures, or video games developed by ID Software, 3D Realms or Apogee. You’re a pitiful man, Mr. Slaughter, one who protests too much, over exerting a perceived masculinity that may have been common place decades ago, but in this day only makes you look and sound not only like a complete and utter fool, but one who does not have any idea truly how the world around him actually works. Again, like an overstimulated, virginal teenager. It amuses me to know that you stand alongside someone who has true life experience like ODIN, and someone who beyond anything else, is true to themselves in Minj… but are too blind by your own aura and ego to realize how weak you actually are in comparison.”
 
Alexander pauses for a second and lets something cross his path, a stray cat perhaps? After the animal makes its way past, Alexnader shakes his head and laughs.
 
“Minj, Minj, Monsieur Malachite Minj… the divine feline, as mysterious and whimsical, as you are proud and carefree… as if you come straight out of the fever dreams of T.S. Elliot and Andrew Lloyd Weber… You are a strange little creature, one that has piqued my curiosity. I do not wish to pry as to the reason behind your choice in embracing your inner feline, nor am I one to judge you for expressing yourself as such. The Light believes that if we are to truly find peace before the inevitable, we must find ourselves in the darkness and embrace all of what makes us truly ourselves. Do not cast judgement on the ways of others, but accept them as you would wish to be accepted. Be what thou will, so to speak. And you, Monsieur Malachite Minj, my fine feline friend seem to understand this way of thought. I commend you as not many are capable of that. You’re a good kitten, Minj… albeit I am willing to believe there is more to you than your playful banter with Ecclestone leads us to believe. It is a shame that you, like the two men I spoke on before you, must fall beneath will The Light.”
 
“As for my two allies in this upcoming match, our alignment is only as long as the time between the ringing of bells. Once that time passes, I owe nothing to either of you. Should either of you fall it will be by your own hands, for I will not share any blame. This is a sentiment that I would like to assume that both of you share. Jacob, you’re a young man filled with angst and rage… Reginald Dampshaw III, you are man unstable, twisted and entangled within the confines of his own mind… deranged to a fault. Both of you come off of losses, both of you are bitter over circumstances beyond your control, and I understand that. But I want you both to understand something… I am here for far more than either of you are able to understand. The Light wills that I succeed, and I will do whatever is in my power to make sure that happens, even if it means throwing both of you to the lions…”

Remington Ivory Prescott has spoken. It’s such good shit!

La Rambla, Barcelona, Spain - 11:10 pm

Reginald walks in the streets of La Rambla swiftly and with purpose. He has no idea where he's going, but knows that somewhere nearby there should be some sort of bar or club which will suit his needs tonight.


Reginald passes by an old building on his right, lit only by streetlights. There are people sitting outside on the stairs leading up to the front door. As they pass each other, Reginald can see a group of four young men staring at them as they walk past. They seem like locals and could probably tell if this guy walking by was someone famous just from their clothing. 

One man stands up and comes towards Reginald: "Hey cuño , you're Reginald Dampshaw III, right?"

Reginald looks towards them, says nothing and keeps walking. The man tries again: "You're a wrestler aren't you? I've seen your matches before on TV."

Still ignoring the question, Reginald continues down the street until he sees a small pub ahead with neon signs flashing on either side. He turns into its entrance, quickly making his way through the packed room filled with Spanish locals drinking beer and talking amongst themselves. It's dark inside, but not so much that he can't see who all is there. A bartender stops him and asks for his ID, which Reginald hands to him. The bartender nods his head in approval as Reginald makes his way to the back of the bar where he takes a seat at the counter and orders himself a drink. As soon as it arrives, he downs half of it without taking time to savour or even smell the alcohol as it hits his system. He then starts to notice some very drunk men coming out from behind a wall in the corner. 


One man walks over to Reginald while laughing uncontrollably at something. The man approaches Reginald slowly and slurs his speech as he begins to say things to him.

"You're a wrestler aren't you? I've seen your matches before on TV."

Reginald remains silent, still drinking his liquor. After a long silence between them: "What's wrong with you, pendejo?" The drunken man finally manages to get out after another bout of laughter. "Why don't you talk to me?"

Reginald looks towards him, but says nothing.

"I'm talking to you right now! What the hell are you looking at?" The man slams his fist against the counter behind Reginald. A couple people around look over. "Are you deaf or something? Respóndeme!”

Reginald finishes his drink, throws a few pesos down on the bar counter and gets up. He dusts off his coat and suddenly uppercuts the drunk man. The man flies back into a nearby table with an audible crack before collapsing to the floor. People gasp in horror as the bartender rushes out from the kitchen and goes to help the fallen man. Reginald grabs the man up off the ground before the bartender can help and throws him out of the club. The bartender shakes his head and shrugs his shoulders at what he just witnessed.

"That guy is crazy." The bartender says.

Outside, Reginald takes the drunk man into a nearby alley and throws him into a wall. The man smashes into a wall and slumps down onto the ground. Reginald begins pacing around the alley, breathing heavy. 

“Is this what you wanted?” Reginald scowls. “You wanted to put me up against Taniguichi Sena and have him embarrass me? Isn’t that right, Oasis?”

The drunk man rolls slowly on the ground, groaning in pain. “Que? Por favor….”

Reginald continues pacing around. “Ever since I came back to OWA, you’ve wanted me gone. Do you rigged all of this, didn’t you?” He paces a few steps then turns towards the man on the floor: "As soon as I said I didn’t want Jimmy or Hatchet beside me during my last match, you made up a plan to screw me. Didn’t you? Didn’t you?!?”

The man tries to get up again, holding his ribs.

“Por favor, señor!” The man yells. “No entiendo. I don’t know this Oasis. No más. No más.”

Reginald stops in front of him and grabs him by the shirt collar.

"Shut your mouth, Scott!" Reginald screams at him. "Listen to me, you son of a bitch! You’ve had this set up this whole time. Even at Boiling Point. This has been your plan this whole time. You had Jacob Striker, JD Damon, ​​Noah Krieger and Michael Bishop in the palm of your hand. You had them all conspire against me. You think that I’m the same Reginald Dampshaw III that you bossed around months and months ago as General Manager, don’t you?”

Reginald then suddenly slumps down the ground, sits down to the drunk man and puts his arm around him.

“Do you remember last year, Scott, when you first concocted the B.O.B. Games, Reginald Dampshaw III told you that the match was too barbaric, too violent? I remember. I had to sit there horrified and disgusted while that pissant soiled OUR name. Do you think I’m the same person, Scott? Do you think I’m that gutless coward?”

Reginald begins laughing but then quickly switches to an almost sign of realisation: ”No…it’s actually the opposite isn’t it, Scott?" he says as he looks directly into the drunk man’s eyes. "You know *exactly* who you’re dealing with when it comes to me. You know what you have with me and The New Dawn here. And you’re afraid.”

Reginald keeps looking directly at the man’s eyes which are now closed. He’s praying under his breath.

“Dios te salve, Maria.
Llena eres de gracia:
El Señor es contigo.
Bendita tú eres entre todas las mujeres.”

“Don’t play stupid with me, Scott!” Reginald throws the man back down onto the ground and stands up. “I know exactly what you’re doing. You remember what happened to me before I first came to OWA. You know where I was held. You’re just creating all of these obstacles for me and The New Dawn, waiting for me to finally snap one more time. One more time and they’ll put me back in a straitjacket and take me back….but they’ll never take me back. Not again…”

Now Reginald looks like there’s tears welling up in his eyes, but he shakes his head and continues.

“No. You want to make your little B.O.B. Games again? Fine. I’m not going to complain about the violence of it. I’m not going to ask to not be a part of it, but I know what you’re trying to achieve. I know this ridiculous 6 man tag team match you have booked for Kingdom is just another ploy for you to try to get me to snap. I don’t care how much money you’ve paid Malachite Minj, ODIN and Dick P. Slaughter. I don’t care how much you’ve paid Kyle to be the special guest referee. You’re not going to embarrass me again. So this is what I want you to do.”

Reginald gets down to one knee and puts his arm around the man once more.

“I want you to tell all of them, and I want you to even tell Zarovich and Striker that if any of them try anything to me, that things are going to get much, much darker. The Reginald Dampshaw III that was General Manager is long gone. Reginald Dampshaw III will never be GM ever again, but I am coming for everything you created. I’ve already destroyed one wrestling company and I’ve seen men like Kenny Drake and Michael Bishop die and be resurrected. If you continue to screw with me, you’ll be the third to die…but you won’t be coming back.”

Reginald stands back up, spits down at the man and walks off, leaving the man bleeding and moaning in pain.

Post December 2nd 2022, 7:34 pm by Theodor Pavel
Wasn’t this what he wanted?

It had been talked about for months, many months in fact. The very idea that the head of the Frontline would finally meet up with the young man they recruited two years ago. He was eighteen years old and didn’t know any better, but he found out quickly how difficult the journey would become. If anything, this match was just what the fans needed. A journey to The Festival continued against one of his role models. If only influence reshaped his views.

His hands were tightly pressed together. His eyes closed from exhaustion. Despite the comfort of the couch he was sitting on, Theodor Pavel just spent two days moving to Osaka for his training. He heard his wife walking by, giving directions to the helpers with the move. A rare stern voice from the young woman as the movers struggled to carry a shelf across the room. Misaki noticed the complacency in her husband, tapping him gently on the thigh to remind him to wake up. Little did she know, he was wide awake.

As his eyes slowly opened, he looked at the loving eyes of his wife. She would surely give him a friendly reminder of the amount of work that needed to be done. His mind had already moved past that thought, returning the look to her. Despite her wake up call, she looked like a kid in a candy store. It was a new home, even if it was temporary. Still, there was something that needed to take place in Barcelona. Snapping out of the loving exchange, Misaki was back to barking out orders to the helpers; leaving Theodor to gather his thoughts.

“I don’t understand why all of this has to be filmed. Are you enjoying this?” Theodor chimed in. He couldn’t help but laugh to himself as he rested his hands on his lap. The frustrating cycle was taking shape, but it was so much more when it boiled down to his upcoming match. Facing Frontline members was nothing new to him. He had done it against his brothers-in-arms before. In fact, he’d be doing it again later this month. It was this match that sat on his mind during the entire flight from Philadelphia to Osaka. “I want to laugh.” he exclaimed with an exhale. A smirk had snuck in as he pulled himself into a more proper seated position rather than the Al Bundy slouch that took over when he collapsed onto the pristine white sofa that was purchased earlier in the day.

“It was almost like this was meant to be. By now, everyone knows that Kingdom is only a few days away. I’ve been to Spain a few times, but this one feels special to me. I get the chance that many thought would never take place. Think about it. Jeff X vs. Theodor Pavel. That being on the marquee is incredible to me.” His eyes weren’t focusing on one thing in particular, but the evolving world that was in front of him. He rented out his family home in Anaheim in order to be here. As soon as he would return from Spain, he would be training with the likes of Touma Ito, Majima, and so many others under the Pro Wrestling RUSH umbrella. The casual viewer wouldn’t know any of those names, but somehow they knew Theodor. “It feels like I’m dreaming.” A short chuckle as he continued.

“I don’t think people really know the relationship I have with Jeff X. My own wife, who knows everything, doesn’t understand why this match is so personal to me. It’s not Student vs. Teacher, that line passed some time ago. It’s not two warriors who battled against the world, finally facing off for the first time? No. I don’t think you realize it. Maybe you do, I won’t say. What I will say about Jeff X is something that I’ve hidden in my heart for years. The man was my hero. Fearless. Strong. A Leader. That’s Jeff X to me.” After choking up for a moment, Theodor’s eyes had finally focused away from the world around him as he looked toward the camera. “She tells me that she doesn’t trust you. I don’t think it’s out of hatred. She almost lost me three times because of the wars. She wants a simple life, just as I do. We both want to be happy and raise children. We want to relax and enjoy the world we love so much. War took a lot of that away from us. I can understand her feelings. She can understand mine.” Away from the camera for the moment, Theodor glanced over at Misaki walking up the stairs to check on something. He felt like he had let down for so long.

Despite the conflicted feelings, Theodor knew where his head was at. He needed to explain the appreciation he had for Jeff. It wasn’t easy to get it out there. “Do you remember the day that we went and saw a witch? We were given this nasty tasting drug and wound up on very strange journeys. Did I ever tell you about the one that really got me? I woke up, unable to move. People stood over me, crying. Their tears were landing on me as I remained still. My therapist said that it could be fear finally taking control of me and I didn’t want to believe that. We had to defeat Fiora and Sabertooth, we had to do everything we could. We fought that together. We fought the Great War together. We fought Dimensional Warfare together. Nearly my entire OWA career has been entwined with our wars that we have fought as a team. Then, when it was done.. You became a champion with the man we fought our first war against. The same man that nearly killed us. I felt betrayed. I felt selfish for feeling betrayed. I guilted MYSELF for feeling that way. Not because Jeff X is a horrible person. Not because Chris Sabertooth couldn’t be rehabilitated. I guilted myself because I was wrong. Absolutely, one hundred percent wrong.. I wasn’t the guy. Trust me when I say this, I walked into Final Destination with the biggest chip on my shoulder because I knew I wasn’t where YOU were. I wasn’t where Bishop was. I wasn’t even where others like J.D. Damon, Ryo Sakazaki, and others who left us…where they were. I was on the outside, looking in. WAITING.. Because that’s what I’ve done around here for two years is WAIT.. WAIT THEN SURVIVE.. WAIT THEN SURVIVE. Every time. I had my moment before, then it was nothing.” His fists were firmly clenched as his frustration had begun to set in. He hated being frustrated with this. He was given so many opportunities in the past and kept falling short. Perhaps, that was meant to be.

One of the helpers overheard him, approaching calmly with a glass of water. He didn’t know how to react to the custom, graciously taking the water as they exchanged quick bows. His hands were shaking as he took a drink of water, trying in vain to calm himself down. He was rattled. “I’m sorry. That’s not what people want. They don’t want me to be this way. Jeff, I don’t know who I am a lot of times. So many things that I enjoyed, I haven’t done in a while. You were the first to give me a beer. Acquired taste, but I enjoyed the moment. Riding with you down the road as you told me stories about things you did when you were my age, I remember every single one of those stories. Some made me laugh, some I still struggle to get past. You’re more than the leader of the Frontline and you know that. I felt that amazing connection that I’ve only felt with my parents. People who understood me and taught me so many things. You did that. You also taught me a very valuable lesson that it took a long time to figure out.” The trembling was slowly dying out. He took another drink from the water, attempting to get past his thoughts. Finally, his head was clearing up from the intense feelings that were thrown upon him.

“You taught me, without saying a word, that this is a business. Yeah, you taught me that when the rest of the Frontline moved on without me at Final Destination. You had business to take care of. Bishop had business to take care of. Everyone did. I played games. That was the first time in my life, not career, but life..That I knew this was not personal. We all get paid to be here Jeff, you get a lot more than I do. We all get in the ring and fight our hearts out, you get the higher spots and the opportunities. We all travel internationally to become the big stars that we deserve to be, yet I don’t get to wrestle as much as you. This is a cruel business, I’ve learned that. I’m a slow learner, but it does pick up eventually and now I see it for what it is. I love professional wrestling, I love the Frontline, but I’m not going to be in the shadows forever. I can’t be there. Nobody was happier for you than I was when you defeated Havoc and Asakura for the title. Nobody was happier for Bishop when he won the title than I was. I’ve been as supportive as I can be, but I know when I went backstage after Bishop HIT me with the title, accidental or not, it wasn’t Theodor needing someone to talk to.. It was Theodor needs to be there to make sure that Chris Sabertooth could come back to life, which he did thanks to you. I had to bite my tongue, keeping my mind clear while Bishop said it was an accident.. For two seconds before we moved on to take care of more important matters.” His frustration was returning, getting more evident with his eyes locking directly on the camera. “I’m sorry, but all of these things have added up to the point where I know I need to look after myself, instead of focusing on others who are going to be here making money whether or not I succeed. I’d like to be a Champion too, one day. I’d like to face the best wrestlers on the entire planet and be seen as the guy who’s doing it. How do I get there if I have to continue waiting, Jeff? You’ve taught me all these things but in the end, none of it matters if the lessons taught aren’t going to be put to use!”

He could hear the footsteps coming from down the stairs. Misaki’s glance in his direction told him all he needed to know. It was a concern. Once again, he would be leaving tomorrow morning to fly out to place and possibly never come back. It was that feeling that shattered him every time. Still, he needed to get it off his chest. “In Barcelona, we’re finally fighting each other. I don’t mean that in a ‘Theodor wants to kick his head off and embarrass him for random reasons’. I mean that in a right of passage. It’s one that you don’t want to be part of because I’m not coming to Spain to lose. I’m coming to make sure that this isn’t for nothing! I’m coming to make sure that my career actually means something, instead of being the regular background guy. I’m not an extra, Jeff. I’m bringing everything you taught me to Kingdom, and I’m going to find a way to win. That’s exactly what I HAVE to do.” His head sunk into his hands upon saying those words. It killed him to know that this was the only way.

“Can we have a beer after the match?”

Remington Ivory Prescott and DT The Ruler have spoken. It’s such good shit!

Odyssey #1: Face to Face.

01.12.22 Tokyo, Japan

*Hana was in a terrible state when it came to the mental aspects of her life. With each passing day and Havoc's new antics, the girl felt more and more lost. Above all, she felt hopeless and helpless. Everyone who tried to help her suffered a lot, and she was in pain even more seeing the consequences they had to deal with. Strangers who became the target of the demon didn't matter so much to her, because they were getting a lesson for sticking their nose in their business. However, those closest to her were too precious to Hana. Not wanting to hurt them, Hana tried to avoid them all, fearing that Havoc would decide to give her a lesson of 'humility' again. So far, all these tragedies have found their happy ending, but it is logical that it will not last forever. No matter how lucky you are, no one will live forever, and if you keep sacrificing it, you'll run out of ways to get it back. That's why, Hana's top priority was to protect those she loves from the monster inside her head.*

*For a couple of days, Hana sat in her apartment, being quite content that no one else came here. The girl assumed that everyone was afraid of her, so they stayed away from her. And while the loneliness was overwhelming, it was better for everyone. Taking advantage of this peace and silence, the Japanese lady had the opportunity to think about the upcoming Goddesses Championship defense. Something that will definitely not be easy, because she has to fight the longest reigning champion of this belt. However, she had no other choice, because Llorona would vacate the title if she refused to show up. Hana had to appear on Odyssey and defend her title. Even if she didn't want to leave the house for a few minutes.*

*As the girl sat on the ground and looked outside the window, she heard someone enter the house, throwing the keys on the table in the hall. A moment later, the bedroom door opened, letting in some light. In the reflection of the window, Hana saw who was behind her. She looked down and covered her head with her hands.*

"Hana. Why don't you pick up my calls?"

*The warm tone of voice that said her name brought tears to her eyes.*

"Please go away...Leave me alone, Chris."

*The girl responded with a shaking tone of voice, then pulled her knees to her chest. Ignoring her words, Christopher started walking towards her. When he wanted to put his hand on her shoulder, Hana quickly stood up and made sure there was some distance between them.*

"Don't come so close, or something bad will happen again! I can't take it anymore!"

*Hana burst into tears as Chris pulled her by hand to him. Then, he lifted her up so that she wrapped her legs around his waist and he hugged her tightly.She wanted to say something, but he had to be the first to start this conversation.*

"Stop running away from everyone. If Havoc wants to hurt someone, he will anyway. I know him better than anyone else and I am aware of what he's capable of. I know how overwhelming and suffocating he is. So as long as others are wondering what will happen to our marriage in this whole situation, you have nothing to be afraid of. I know well that it's not your fault. I know that this son of a bitch is responsible for all this and he wants to blame it on you. So no matter what happens, remember that I will never stop loving you, Hana. We are in this difficult situation together and I will help you get over it. Not only me...but also the rest of the Frontline and surprisingly your mentor. We all want your safety and happiness so don't push us away."

*Hana snuggled into his arm tighter, then added quietly.*

"Then what am I supposed to do? I'm completely out of control. I try to tame him, but he is so strong."

*Chris ran his fingers through her red hair.*

"I know it's going to sound cold, but you just have to trust the process. I know how much you worry about your loved ones and yourself. So if possible, try to distract yourself with something else. Let's say with this damn match on Odyssey. I swear, Llorona doesn't even have an ounce of empathy to make decisions like that. Anyway, focusing on it will keep you a little sane. And I wouldn't worry about Havoc wanting to fuck you over against Nami. He's a fierce son of a bitch, but he doesn't like to lose. He's already mad that two weeks ago Jeff costed him a win in such a stupid way, so this time even if he decides to get involved, he'll do it for your benefit. Though I don't know if he will feel the need to interfere in this match. As far as I know him, I can tell he doesn't see Nami as a threat, or anything personal."

*Hana frowned in surprise.*

"What do you mean, that Nami is not a threat? No matter what a shitty period of time she is going through, she is the longest holder of this championship after all. I'm not saying I'm afraid of her, but she's not to be underestimated."

"Of course she can't be overlooked, but she's not the same Nami who ruled the Goddesses Division anymore. Since the match with Rin, she has changed a lot. Even if others consider the moment she lost the title as a decline, I have the impression that this sudden change for the worse, is the fault of this brat from the future. While I am shocked that Nami broke so easily, Rin is manipulating her for months at this point. Which is a bit of a crazy situation, because we always thought that getting rid of the evil Arata was everything we needed. Meanwhile, Rin continues his 'legacy' and tries to create her army of mindless puppets and reactivate The Golden Dawn. It is not as strong as the one with Arata in charge, but ignoring that can lead to trouble. It's just sad to see that Nami is going to be a part of that. I always thought she had great potential to be a World Champion in the future, but she naively let herself be wrapped around Rin's finger, abandoning her ambition to become one of her pawns. I have no idea what Rin said to her, but Nami has lost the fire she had in her. Not only in terms of personality, but above all in the ring. Which is perfectly visible in how weak she looked in recent matches. So I don't think you will have a big problem with her. Especially since, besides Nami's difficult period, you're a great wrestler. You've been fighting for the Goddesses Championship for so long, I'm sure it's going to be a long reign for you, love."

*Chris kissed Hana's forehead and smiled slightly.*

"I can tell that Nami has been acting weird lately. Although, many probably thought that the poor girl was back to addiction, so that is where this behaviour came from. To be completely honest, what Rin can do with the mind is worse than the post-drug phase. Perhaps, when Arata was in spotlight, we didn't see it clearly, but this girl is strong as hell, especially when it comes to influencing other. So I'm not surprised that Nami let herself be broken by her. It was just a matter of time. Of course, Nami is a strong fighter, but she tends to succumb to temptation. She can't be consistently assertive. First of all, I get the impression that she's just afraid of being left alone in this industry full of disgusting people. Personally, I'm not too cooperative person myself, but having someone protect your back seems important. Especially when you're not from here. I don't believe in the movement Arata was leading, but there was some truth to what he said. If you're not American, it's not so easy for you here. Not to mention that the sports culture here is different than ours, so many Japanese wrestlers come here and are in shock. We have brutality in the fight, but we don't cross the line outside the ropes. Here, there is no morality. They will make fun of your traumatic experiences just to hurt your feelings. So it is scary to be alone around those people. nami just did what it took to feel more safe and despite her last name Rin gives the feeling of comfort. She looks like a nice girl from the neighborhood. Unfortunately for Nami, she stupidly felt for that wolf in sheeps clothing. The question is...will she ever recover from this mistake? Because it is difficult for me to believe in this."

"These last few years have taught me that you can't save people who don't want your help. So there's no point getting involved in their cause. If Nami wants to follow the same path as The Golden Dawn, that's her mistake. If she wants to proudly represent a crest stained with the blood of innocent people, it is her problem. While Rin contributed to Nami's change, we can't fully justify her. Rin is not a demon who comes and takes control of her. Even if she manipulates her, it's Nami's fault that she can't tell the difference between good and evil. Anyway, it's not the first time this happens that she doesn't know what she should do. I am not going after her past, because you can't get pointed out for the mistakes of your youth, all your life. But Nami has shown many times that she speaks first and thinks later. Well, even as a champion of the WOMEN' brand, she has shown contempt for other ladies way too many times. Even if it wasn't her intention, it looked rather miserable. The funniest thing is she was shitting on a woman she is now best friends with. Nami completely headed towards the black hole that I will absorb her soon."

*Hana ironically laughed.*

"I don't want to say anything, but it sounds familiar. So what's the difference between Nami and me? Looks like we're both up to our knees in shit."

"The difference is that Nami has no one to help her. You have people who love you. You have people who are willing to do anything to finally free you from the demon, that is destroying you from the inside. So just hold on a little longer, and soon you will be able to enjoy your family. Soon you will be able to be proud of your Goddesses Title reign, which is your merit, not his. So, in anticipation of this moment, just do what you have to secure this future. Keep that championship around your waist, and when it's all done, you'll see what I see. Strong and beautiful Goddess."

*After these words, Chris smiled again and kissed his wife.*

Jeff X, Remington Ivory Prescott and DT The Ruler have spoken. It’s such good shit!

{The screen lights up and we find ourselves looking at a pair of hands wrapped up in white wrestling tape. The tape is bent and torn in places but most importantly is splattered with a good amount of blood as the camera pulls up to show us the face of a very annoyed looking Jacob Striker, his icy blue eyes are narrowed as he mulls over something dark as he sits in a semi-dark room somewhere in the world}

Jacob: The only reason that this company does not have a new Outlaw champion is because of Otto Nova, so Noah Krieger had better go and buy that boy everything and anything that he wants because the only thing…the *ONLY* thing that kept me from winning that championship is that boy.

Not Noah’s so-called “Chicago’s Finest” talent, but by a boy who is stumbling around in the dark trying to find his own way in the world of professional wrestling with that sheer insane weight of being the child of a highly successful wrestler past her own prime. 

I will get back to Noah in due time, but while I can handle the fact that I lost and that I can learn from it, that does *not* mean that I’m not annoyed by it…frustrated by the fact that week after week I put on one epic match after another and somehow, I keep losing. Everywhere else I go, I tear through my opponents like tissue paper in a storm, but there is something here in the OWA that has kept me from being the best and I don’t know what it is.

Maybe, just maybe I’m putting in too much of the fucking work…making too much of an effort to be the best wrestler that I can be just like how my mentors in Peter Graves and Stephanie Matsuda have trained me to be, but then again I am Stephanie’s greatest student because out of all the people that she had put through the processes at the War Room Dojo-I am the only one with World Championships to my name. 

You see, I am the one that a promotion now respectfully refers to me as their “Legacy”, yes…the owner of One Wrestle Movement was watching last week’s Kingdom when Morgan Shaw called me that and he made it official. 

Maybe that’s the reason, I’m being too professional here in the OWA…but then again when you work with the level of talent that I do here in this company, how can you not?

Take my match on this week’s edition of Kingdom as I am teaming with Reginald Dampshaw the Third and Alexander von Zarovich against Malachite Minj, ODIN, and Dick P. Slaughter in a six man.

Now I’ve wrestled against Reginald in the past and the two of us don’t really see eye to eye on things because even though at our core, we are both two classically trained European Grapplers…but we are from two vastly different levels of society and I understand that and I still respect him for his talents in that ring…but you, Alexander. 

I don’t know you and in my world, that makes you the odd man out.

But that’s not me saying that you can’t handle yourself in the ring if your debut last Kingdom was any indication of what we can see of you in the future.

But while Reginald knows what I can do in the ring and vice versa, you’re the odd man out in this team for this match and while I cannot speak for Reginald, I can for myself and to be honest, I do think that you can carry your own weight because you look hungry enough and that hunger can be a good thing and a bad thing from what I know of my own personal experiences in that particular area, but when it comes to throwing down in the most epic of matches…then you’re on the right team, Alexander.

Especially since we're fighting a Japanese foreign worker that everybody has forgotten about, a living, breathing example of 80's action movies, and a....cat.

A guy who thinks that he's an actual fucking *cat*.

No shitting you there, folks.

{Jake's expression takes one of pure tiredness for several seconds as he rubs his face for a moment before continuing}

Jacob: So my dad, while working for Superior Championship Wrestling, had to wrestle guys who thought that they were characters from White Wolf's old "World of Darkness" as well as two guys who wrestled exclusively in giant mouse suits while my mentor Peter Graves once had a to wrestle members of a faction called the "Knights of Lagoon" who were all dressed up like alien birds complete with fake lightsabers.

Hell during my recent brief run in National Championship Wrestling, I actually had to wrestle a faction of friggin *ANTS*

Just goes to show you that in both the *sport* and the *art* of professional wrestling...it takes all kinds, eh?

And yes, Monsieur Minj, I've heard of you. The person that was purportedly "pussy so good that it got banned from Project Honor" just prior to that company being shut down.

...or was it caused to be shut down?

It really doesn’t matter because in the end, that was then and this is now and you are here in the Omega Wrestling Alliance, staring down my team for the evening and to be honest, I always did want to square off against members of Project Honor’s roster. I mean yes, I did beat Indy Darling for the Wrestleworld Territorial championship and he was on the Project Honor roster as well, but I wanted to square off against more of you lot but never got the chance to.

Also I know that Kyle Valentine was on the roster and the history between he and I is better left untouched and as for Lexi Gold….well, I did help Mister Slayton train her while she was working for Pro Wrestling Nova, but you see how she repays people who help her, right?

I just pray that you don’t disappoint, Minj, otherwise I’ll find more than one way to skin a cat, even if it means that I have to grab into that thick hair of yours’ from both sides of you and yank it apart separately, peeling you like a fucking BANANA!!

So let's move onto you, ODIN. I think that honestly, I may have heard of you. You didn’t travel in the same circles as some of the wrestlers that I watched from that time period or was influenced by, but I’ve *heard* of you and from what I’ve heard you were one really fucking blood thirsty bastard and time has done nothing to dull that thirst, I hope?

I’m hoping that because I want to see what kind of monster will get into the ring with my team and what kind of rampage you’ll throw down with it…I’m also curious to see exactly how a monster like you will work with the two that have been chosen for your teammates for the evening.

And as for you…DPS…you do realize that doing that many energy drinks is actually bad for your health, you do know that right?

Because I downright refuse to carry your heavy ass corpse out of the ring just like I know that I’m going to have to carry a talentless half twit like yourself on Kingdom that evening…I mean Hells, my team is going to be doing all of the fucking work during this match to carry the whole lot of you because that’s the difference between guys on *MY* team and the entire fucking lot you!!

One simple, bloody, fucking word.

*PROFESSIONALISM*

{A look of complete rage comes over Jake’s face for a moment as he slams a fist into the ground as he moves to stand up, the camera following every single one of his movements}

Jacob: But maybe *that* is what’s been keeping me from reaching out and snatching those victories out of the mouth of fucking defeat, I’m too much of a fucking *PROFESSIONAL*...maybe I care too much about this industry that I’ve chosen to give me health and mental well being to in order to win matches here in this company…maybe…just fucking *maybe*, I need to take away this weight of morality and just be my fucking self again.

But oh wait!!

I did that once and people called me a “savage asshole” for it everywhere that I went…and specific people in Wrestleworld had another reason to call for my departure from there.

Are you hearing this shit, Noah?! Does this sound like the voice of a man who is mother fucking “content”, you pedantic little *TWAT*!? 


And what was it that you said to me over the course of the week leading up to the last episode of Kingdom….

Oh yeah.

As long as you are champion, you’ll ensure that I’ll never be the one to wear that belt wasn’t?

Indy Darling said that shit to me and I took his belt didn’t I?

The same with Jenni Drew when I took her fucking One Wrestle Movement Heavyweight championship which I then turned around and made it into their fucking *WORLD* Heavyweight Championship!


I don’t care if you’re on a fucking voyage of self discovery or self-love, sunshine, because in the end I think that belt would look a hell of fucking lot better around my sexy waist than draped over your skinny ass shoulders, Noah. So after I help Reginald and Alexander tear our opponents for this week’s Kingdom apart…maybe, just MAYBE…I’ll find you and present my…hehe, “counter argument”...concerning your words because just like my fiancée loves to tell me that once I get that black fire lit in me, it’s time to enjoy some real fucking wrestling and far be it for me to disappoint Serenity when she wants to enjoy watching her man go about his bloody *work*!!

But first things first, this week’s edition of Kingdom and the work to be done there.

{For the first time in the entire promo, that signature wolfish grin comes across Jake’s face only there is something more maniacal behind those ice blue eyes of his as he grins at the camera}

Jacob: Wow, that felt good to get that off my chest. But do you know what will feel even better?

When I have one of you locked in a submission with nowhere to go but tapping out. 

Now I know what drove my friend Ryo to utter and complete madness.

He was trying too hard to be the kind of wrestler that he *wanted* to be instead of the one that he actually *was* and not a single one of you can handle the freak that he’s become and he’s loving it.


Let’s see if you can handle what I bring, now that the gloves are off, shall we?

Be seeing you all very soon.

{The screen fades to black on Jake’s grin}

Remington Ivory Prescott has spoken. It’s such good shit!

Aaliyah Landerson is sitting and a chair when starring at Rebecca Sawyer who is standing in the middle of the Odyssey ring while looking at Aaliyah Landerson on the satellite screen]

Rebecca Sawyer: Aaliyah. tell me what's been going on with you lately I mean you lost your first debut against Dr. Bethany Hastings Phd and then you came out in saved Cassie Wu for getting jumped by Dr Bethany in her friend of hers why is that Mr Landerson.

Re: OWA Promos
Post December 1st 2022, 11:25 pm by Tomomi Shinozaki
I've been here for a little while now, and I can say under good authority that I’ve let everyone down. Well, not everyone. I’m sure there are a ton of people that never believed in me in the first place and honestly, those are the people that I’ve been focusing in on the most. That’s a mistake. Everyone who isn’t in your inner circle are always going to want you to fail. Everyone is your competition in a wrestling ring so they’re going to tell you every bad thing that you ever thought of yourself and things that you never even thought of. Is it real? No, but for someone with confidence issues it becomes real. So with these confidence issues I’ve allowed myself to be a joke around here. I’ve had two golden opportunities and because of fear of failure I just… let them go. A multi person match to determine the number one contender and I talked myself out of even trying. I’ve watched from the sidelines let everyone do and say what they want and I’ve come to the determination that everyone is just full of shit. Why am I listening to people that want me to fail so they can get the upper hand on me? There is no benefit to them to give me compliments and to be honest, half of wrestling is just head games. People who suck at wrestling will pretend they’re good just so they can get into opportunities. And no matter how many times the opposite of talent is shown, they’re still capable of coming out here every week and telling us why they’re better than the opponent and why they’re going to win. It’s crazy. Lucky for me I’m actually talented at this, and the fakers of this business is actually quite plentiful


Over and over again I’ve allowed myself to become overwhelmed by the bright lights. Not even realizing that I’m putting myself at a disadvantage before I even step inside the ring. Why even go out there with the thought of losing? Once that thought creeps into my mind, I’ve already lost. It should never be a thought in my mind, and I’m done letting it be. I’ve spent all this time trying to figure everyone else out, but it’s finally time that I just figure myself out. I see a lot of talented people here, but that’s not going to be a hindrance to me anymore. I’m just going to see it as an opportunity to show what I have against the best. I look back at my matches and I see a timid girl, who had no shot at success. Taking every loss as affirmation that she’s not fit for this business, instead of taking it as a challenge to get better. Curling up into a little ball and shying away from the world, making it impossible to grow. Losses are supposed to be lessons, not deathblows. They’re supposed to be used as a way to get better, not continuous loops of failure. I’m getting out of the loop. I’m breaking out of my cocoon and becoming the beautiful butterfly that i was born to be. Everyone here has faults, everyone here has weaknesses, and everyone here seems to be good at disguising it all. I really let that match with Hartley get into my head, but it’s all about perspective. Hartley is one of the best here, a champion, and obviously it was going to be a hard match to win. I’m still finding my feet here, I shouldn’t take it so hard. But it was the things that she said to me that threw me off my game, but I’m sitting here thinking, why? All she did was try to think of the most hurtful things she could say to someone that was already down in the first place. Why would I let someone that doesn’t know who I am to determine who I am? She was just trying to get in my head and break me down and that’s what she did. This is a turning point. I have to keep in mind my situation here. I’m coming off of a few years not wrestling consistently and there was bound to be some ring rust. But that doesn’t define what I can and will be in the future. The only one stopping me from being me is… well me. And Yuna I hope you’re ready for what’s coming your way, because this is a brand new Tomo. I know I’m on the verge of being a giant bust, and I refuse to let that happen. I’m bringing the fight to you, and coming away with a victory.


But before that, I do want to talk about what happened the last time you and I saw each other. Clearly, we are somewhat like-minded right? With what happened with, well all of us at the last Odyssey. I just didn't see the point in joining a weird group like that, when that would just be pushing the blame off of myself. If I wanted to make this easy, place the blame on everyone else for my shortcomings, then yeah I would join the group. But I know that my problems are nothing more than a mental thing, and I just needed a reset. Again, I'm sure at this point nobody thinks that I'm anything special, no one is expecting much out of me, but at this point, what do I have to lose? I was once considered one of the top of my class, and a generational talent coming out. But after years of doing everything in my power to fuck myself over, I'm done with that. Who knows what this match has in store for us. Now we know that we both have people that probably have some sort of vendettas against us, so maybe they will get themselves involved, and if that happens we will see what happens. But if I have it my way? It'll be just you and me, one on one, finding out who the better of the two is. I don't need any of the extra stuff, I don't want any of the extra stuff. I'm out on a mission to actually prove myself and prove that I don't need the help of others to actually achieve my goal. Now's the time to pick myself up off the ground and show why I was signed to this company in the first place. No one is going to do this for me, I'm all out here on my own; and I'm not going to allow myself to fail. So, Yuna, I know the two of us were both put in an awkward situation, and I respect your decisions. But between those ropes, I'm bringing the fight to you. I'm done being the pushover. I'm done letting everyone use me as a way to progress forward. I've had a title match that I lost, a contenders match that I lost, and now what do I have? I'm working from the ground up once again, and that's ok by me. I'm not one for handouts. It's something that I need to do for myself. This is the start of my redemption, and I don't care what I have to do in order to obtain this victory. No more messing around.

OWA Promos - Page 15 Conan-gray-tour-768x403
My career has always been about chances.

I've had this be a part of my life all because I took up the chance to pursue something that I've always loved. I was given the chance to be signed with Matt Miles and be part of a roster that was filled OWA's very own and best. I was afforded the chance to prove myself on countless stages, making more and more believe in me. Believe in this movement. Believe in this sport again. Chances upon chances, but I've made due on just about most of them. At Boiling Point, I suffered a loss that many saw as a written victory. After all, my name is tied to APEX Wrestling, and vice versa. The fairytale ending was right there practically waiting for me to pick up the pen and finish it, but alas, it never panned out the way. Right then and there was my chance to bring everything I sought to accomplish to fruition, and it was wasted.

I was worried that I would have to wait until some time until I had another opportunity. In fact, some may say that I shouldn't be in this match. I had a massive title match already, given the biggest platform possible for a debut, and I squandered it. I showed dents within this purification process. Though I did try to keep things realistic, I was disappointed. It was a monumental moment, but I didn't capitalize on it. I figured, well, I'd have to wait. Even if things keep getting worse and worse here, I had no choice.

Then, that Friday night, Rich Gatsby needed a challenger.

Life is about chances, but with these chances come uncertainty. I could've bided my time. Work my way up diligently and waited until the time deemed me fit and worthy of another opportunity - as if I haven't been doing that for the better part of six months now. Still, nothing is guaranteed. What if the same people that bestow these sorts of opportunities to me suddenly shift their attention over to another talent at the last minute, complicating matters for me? What if I were to incur the wrath of a fearsome rival who wants nothing more than to cut me down and take that same opportunity that I earned for themself? Wrestling is filled with many of these uncertainties that keeps many of us who decide to pursue this on our toes, forever on edge with this undying feeling of anxiety for when the competition becomes too desperate. No one can truly be comfortable with their spot and position, and sure, while on the surface that can be perceived as a given, it's this uncertainty that makes things just a little more urgent for me. I don't know what the future may hold. I cannot control every single little facet of my life and career. There is only so much that I alone can do.

The chance was there for me again. And so, I took it. Now, in my third match, I become a step closer to fulfilling everything I sought to do ever since I joined this sport in May. I get to right the wrongs that I made at Boiling Point. I get to step up to a titan, look them in the eyes, and for one more night, I will be able to turn things around for OWA. This time, I won't fail.

In a way, I cannot blame people for being so hasty when it comes to success. Time, let alone chances, waits for no man. None of us is an exception to this law. Not even me. Still, while I have the chance, I can try, and that is all that chances inspire us to do: try. Things may be uncertain, but that doesn't mean we have to give up. After all, I'm here, aren't I? What happened with APEX did upset me, but I soon came to realize that sitting and wallowing away about what could've been would do me no good. I couldn't let my emotions deter me away from what is important. I couldn't let the one chance I was given and used to bring to life this moment go to waste. I didn't let the hurt and disappointment consume me. I let it fuel me. That is why I'm here in OWA, and that is why I'm insistent on creating the clearest message that I could ever send. I didn't give up, and I don't intend on doing that. Me deciding to take a serious chance on what was seen as nothing more than a childish little dream quickly became something that is real and present. I've beaten people that were supposed to have easy wins over me. I went on to win a tournament that should've been something far out of my league. I've become the face of a promotion even in spite of not having a title at the time. I did all of this and then some because of something far more than mere luck. Through these chances, I've been able to create change.

So, jumping at the opportunity when it came to this match was a no-brainer for me, Rich. I knew that I needed a way to ensure that the same message I'd been working on tirelessly since earlier in the year wouldn't get lost in translation. It's no easy feat of course given as I have to face you, but that's what makes this match all the more important. You're the man, Big GAT, a name and face so identifiable and has become synonymous with this brand. You are a true juggernaut, having already been a world champion despite only being in this sport for two years. You've been on a meteoric rise, and that is not me trying to kiss the proverbial rear here. It's the truth. Boiling Point was a challenge in and of itself, but this? This is an even bigger hurdle for me to try and conquer -- and conquer, I will.

I failed once already, and there will be more eyes on me because of how things turned out last time. They watch like vultures, creeping in to see whether or not I'll fail, if I will be another defense added, another talent beaten by a man who can realistically lead this show. And should that happen and you manage to beat me, I don't know when the next opportunity will present itself to me. Losing this will absolutely call into question my credibility and the credibility of this movement, especially when the rise I've had has happened in record time. There is a pressure that I am having, and yes, I willingly allowed myself to have it, but that is because I need this purification to reach its final destination. If not now, then when?

The sooner I get to that end game, the better. Even if it's at your expense.

Because that's how meaningful change gets sparked.

It's the same change that started when I won that tournament. It's the same change that got cultivated when I have beaten the likes of Senn and Arata. It's the same change that led me here to OWA, and it is the same change that has given me the chance to finally make things right here again. It's not some wasteful dream but a reality. It is real, Rich. You've seen it with your own two eyes. And as much as I respect you for sticking to your guns even if you may be a little more jaded, at this present moment, you are threatening this change from reaching its full conclusion. That Icarus Championship is something that I need. It's not a want. That's the difference between you and me. The worth of a championship is finite to you; a worth determined by what you think makes it worthy for you and your career. Its worth is made to serve you and your own desires. Not a worth that can benefit others. It doesn't bring any meaningful change unless it's one that suits you and your needs.

You don't care about the bigger picture anymore. You only care about yourself.

Selfish desires remain ever present in the hearts of many - even within the ones who should know better.

The Icarus Championship should be more than a mere footstep. Every championship should, in fact. The worth of a title is based on how we see it. If it were to be a footstep, then it's only because people think of it as such, and it's a precedent that you are setting whether it's intentional or not. People may have always thought of being the champion, but not one championship alone can do that.  And I set on proving just that. I am going to make that title out to be way more than you are allowing it to be. I won't stifle or limit its potential just because a bigger goal may be up ahead.

These titles, these matches? These aren't just mere stepping stones. They are far, far more than that.

They are chances for hope to shine through.

And this is another chance for me to shine through, helping to usher in a new light into OWA.

Post November 30th 2022, 11:38 pm by Elijah Hampton
[As we all now know, after months of being denied from the OWA Immortal Heavyweight Championship, Elijah finally broke through. Since Boiling Point, Elijah has tried to soak his moment in. He’s stared at that championship multiple times, making sure this is his new reality. Making sure it’s his nameplate screwed into that title. He’s finally coming to grips with it all. Most are expecting him to be on cloud nine. But — while there’s a part of him that feels that way — he’ll never straight up admit it, even though his eyes can let the cat out of the bag at times, there’s a piece of him that’s terrified. Perhaps battling a bit of imposter syndrome. He’s been met and greeted with thunderous chants of ‘you deserve it’ — but he’s unsure if he does. Think about it, this is his first EVER world championship. And it just so happens to be from the greatest wrestling company in the world — no pressure. A couple of big names, household names, held this title before him. Elijah is unsure how he stacks up compared to storied and celebrated individuals such as them. But he’s going to do everything in his power to make sure this reign is something to be remembered.]

“Coming off the biggest win of my professional wrestling career, I’m sure most would suspect that I’ve been living it up. Basically living inside of these exquisite clubs and penthouses. Living inside of IG ‘models’ or TikTokers, ‘cause celebratory sex — take your pick. Showering in champagne. Lighting up some cigars. Wearing the freshest of clothes. Eating at the chillest of restaurants. Hanging out and enjoying some brunch, most likely some bullshit like avocado on toast with A-list celebs like Hilary Duff and Haley Joel Osment. Locking down eight-figure endorsements too. Out here making pro-gamer moves on the reg. So on and so forth. Sure, I took a moment to celebrate a bit with a small gathering of friends and family. Those who have supported me since day one — not sure why. I gave them every reason to cut their losses and move on. I wasted their time. I wasted their patience. All because I wouldn’t get out of my own way. I refused to take this seriously. Because I thought my talent was enough. And some nights, I was able to skate by with just that. Other nights, not so much. And then, once I did sign my name on the dotted line of my OWA contract, there was a part of me that was content. Just getting here was enough. Feeling like a made man. And that anything I accomplished on top of that was just gravy. I was fine with being in the background. I was fine with Havoc calling the shots. I was fine with being a meat shield alongside the likes of Jack Daniels and Ryo for Nas and Nate Cage for the duration of a cup of coffee — what a dark period that was in my career. I shudder just thinking about it. Ew. Gross. I’m gonna vom. But that was meant to be my role. One that I didn’t carve out for myself, but one that was dug up for me. Might as well have been a grave for my own career if I kept running with that ‘tough’ crowd. But Elijah Hampton? Back then, he stepped onto the scene with no expectations whatsoever. The commentators didn’t label him as the hottest free agent in all of professional wrestling during his first-ever entrance. He didn’t take the world by storm after his few performances. He was just kinda there. Staying afloat. Not trying to ruffle too many feathers. Picking and choosing his battles. Playing it safe and playing the long game. Using the element of surprise to help catapult his career clearly above his peers. I no longer have that trick up my sleeve. My run as of late, especially when I was like 14-0 or some shit to kick off this season, there’s no downplaying it. I couldn’t even if I wanted to. And now, you add this championship on my shoulder, it captures the naked eye. So shiny. So seductive. And because well, it’s mine — I called dibs on it long ago and now, officially winning it — because it’s attached to me, the majority of the focus is on me. And perhaps that spells trouble for yours truly, who knows? Because world champions, no matter the sport, get their opposition’s absolute best effort each and every night because they want to send a message. That they too are on that level. And it doesn’t matter if it’s on a random weekday or if it’s a playoff game or in our case, a Pay-Per-View, they are going to try to punch you in the mouth. Rock you, dethrone you, send you packing and that’s that. It’s part of the reason why I’ve tried to stay mellow during all of this. Instead of spiking the ball in the end zone, I’m handing it off to the ref, acting like I’ve been there before, but I really haven’t. This is my first world championship. Hell, could be my last too because you never know when it comes to this business. It’s too unpredictable to guarantee certain accolades. So I’m just going to enjoy the ride and I’m going to make this count.”

“And I’m counting on you, Lazarus, to do everything in your power to pry this championship away from me. Willing to stoop to the lowest of lows. Attempt some carny bullshit if it means it gives you even the slightest of razor-thin advantages. It’s a game of inches, I don’t blame you. Every second that ticks by is critical. Every movement you pull out of your arsenal must be done so with precision. Because I’ve shown I’m capable of hitting that bullseye. But here you are, calling your shot. No waiting around. You’re just going for it, full throttle, straight for the jugular, while I’m still nursing my bruises and lumps. I respect it. It’s like I mentioned just moments ago, OWA is unpredictable. It’s the nature of the beast. You never know when you get another chance like this. Some — actually, I would say the vast majority, never get it. And some may not even need a second chance to begin with. They collect from the get-go. Laz, you very well could deliver on your promise to your fellow rats out there and secure the big wheel of cheese at the end of the maze at Night of Champions. It’s a very real possibility. And I would be a fool to suggest or think otherwise. But your words and your offense in that ring resemble that of Swiss cheese. There are holes. I see moments and hesitations that I will act swiftly on and capitalize on. You won’t know what happened. You blink, and you’re done. Because I see you. My attention is just on you. It’s your head that I want to rip clean off of your shoulders and place it on a pike. You’re right — there’s no Jacob Senn around here. He did the thing that most world champions seem to do around here when they lose their belt and that’s disappear. But he’ll be back — thanks to me for not swinging that sword at his neck at BP. But when he does decide to turn up and ‘Grace us with his presence’, I’ll be patiently waiting when he does. And of course, the third head of the Cerberus — there’s no Alex Carter to pull some strings and hold your hand through this soon-to-be grueling process. You’re all on your own. In the deepest of waters. No shore in sight. And no safety jacket to bail you out. How good is your doggy paddle, hmm? But when it comes to all of our previous encounters, it’s true, you did the dirty work. When nobody was looking, you would strike. Because nobody, well besides Darkane, only because of your history with him really — they stared daggers at Jacob Senn. He was the main focus. Not you. Even when you stepped into the frame, they looked above and past your 160-pound frame. Because they don’t think highly of you. That you’re just a JAG — Just Another Guy. Which fits your narrative of being the odd guy out — the ‘misfit.’"

"They just viewed you as a right-hand man to extend a reign that was always on borrowed time. I wouldn’t go as far as to say you were his ‘lackey’ per se, because I know — I know you could use that same logic and hurl that same exact word my way. Call me a hypocrite and hurt my feelings. But you did take orders from him and you did do his bidding. I of all people would know this because I was on the receiving end. Multiple times. Which reminds me — fuuuuuck YOU!!!! — respectfully. After all of that, I feel like I owe you one. And I absolutely plan on repaying you in full this week. Look, when we enter that ring, I know we are going to do major damage to the other’s body. I’m expecting buckets of blood. I’m expecting to hear bones being shattered. For ligaments to get torn. And I’m sure that’s music to your ears. You seem like the type of guy that says that shit makes you feel aliiiiive — cool. But do you know what’s going to hurt the most, Laz? It’s not going to be my fists or my elbows or my headbutts. It has nothing to do with anything related to physicality in the first place. What’s going to permanently scar you is when I crumple up your dream of holding this championship and toss it into the trash. When I take this boot and not just knock you down a peg or two, but send you to the shadow realm. And then what? What’s next? Darkane has moved on from you. Your little Project Smile clique moved on. I’m about to move on from you and face whatever challenge awaits me next as your Immortal Heavyweight Champion. I guess you could just go back to doing what you do best and that’s targeting people with your lead pipe. Revel in the fact you do all the little things that get under people’s skin. Being the little nuisance buzzing in our ears, gnawing on our ankles. Doing the dirty work, as we went over. And you can say you pull that type of tomfoolery because well, you can. It’s for shits and giggles. For your own entertainment purposes. But what it really boils down to is you rely on such weapons because it’s the only way you can match the skill level of most here. Just like the typical enforcer players in hockey. All they have is their brutality. They aren’t leading the team in goals. They are too busy sitting in the penalty box to be a stat stuffer. You fill that role perfectly. It’s why your fit with Project Smile was rather seamless. You didn’t have to be the guy. You were never asked to do too much, which I give Jacob credit for. But here you are now, trying to do the most. Which is something all you’re going to be doing this Friday, by the way — trying. And later, failing. Because while at Boiling Point, The Grim Baker told me it wasn’t my time to die, I look into this camera, and later on, while we stand in the middle of that ring, I’ll look straight into your bloodshot eyes, full of hope, full of desire — and tell you that it isn’t my time to lose this championship. But head up, lil bro, for your time will come one day — maybe — yeah sure, why not?”

Glorious Purpose
OWA Promos - Page 15 LlEbPD


"Oh, Ryo. Can I ask you something? And I'm going to need you to be completely honest with yourself before you answer. Because you're very, very angry. Not just with me but in general. I understand if you're in need of some medication or if you need some grass to touch, I'm sure we can figure out something to help with your mood of irritation.

I can get you on a one way trip to Thailand, if you need it that bad, pal.

But. With all that being said. You've decided to take all that stored up anger, emotional turmoil, depression, and lack of stability and you're going to try and use it to discredit and physically harm a pillar of the professional wrestling community such as myself.

That's quite rude, if I do say so myself. And quite uncalled for.

Now, I understand that you're unequivocally jealous of everything that I am and appear to be. I'm wealthy beyond even my own wildest dreams. I'm surrounded by people that love and care for me as if there were nothing more to their lives but me. I exude confidence and instill loyalty and respect into everyone that I come across. I make the world an incredible place just by existing. And I haven't even begun to talk about PresCorp and the impact that my company has had on the world at large. These are all magnificent feats that I haven't even had to try at. To top it all off, I am one of OWA's top talents as shown by my impeccable skill in the ring and the title that I strap around my waist.

I'm a Champion, Ryo. And not just in sports entertainment. Not just in OWA. In life.

Now, let's take a look at the other side of that coin. Where you reside. Your jealousy is incredibly obvious due to your lack of monetary value of any sort. Your bad dye-job alone is enough to prove that you're barely making ends meet. Scraping together a handful of Yen so that you can ride the bullet train back and forth in your peasanted homelessness is no way to live. Unlike myself, you don't have anyone around you that actually cares. You're alone. You don't have anyone to fight for you and that makes you sad and angry all over again. Being absolutely rejected by your own people, the Omegaverse, and even the big wigs in the back is probably what caused you to be on suicide watch in the first place. Which would explain why you've chosen to throw both your career and life away by stepping into That Very Ring with me for a second time.

Your lack of self-awareness is what holds you back, Ryo. You don't understand just how much of a nuisance you are to the rest of us. Your fight or flight response to everything is exhausting on a level that is too stupid to comprehend. Hiding behind threats of bodily harm, violent tactics and uncouth behavior simply keeps you from progressing any further than this. Not to mention your uncalled for hatred of dogs. What do you have against poodles, anyway?

You've made absolutely no true contributions to the world or to OWA. You've done nothing but take, take, take. You said it yourself, everything you've done you've done for your own benefit. You only care about being a champion for your own selfish ideals and goals. You only want to better yourself. You only want to do whatever it takes if it means that you get something out of it.

Is that how you want to be remembered?

You see, I'm a man of the people. I exist to give those that are less than capable an opportunity to bask in my light. A chance to see a true entertaining thespian of the squared circle at work. The people that scream my name at the top of their lungs on a regular basis do so because I've earned it. I've been in their homes on their cheap television sets. I've sweated on them as I've put my body on the line for those that spent their entire paychecks to sit in the front row of an OWA live event. I've done the impossible and they've gotten to witness it. I give these people a show. I give these people what they want to see.

You just make them want to take a bathroom break.

The world doesn't revolve around you, Ryo. Not everything is about you. Not everything that I say or do is to make your life worse. You're doing a pretty bang up job of that yourself, pal. I'm not out to get you. If we're being honest, I'm actually trying to stay as far away from you as possible. Having you as a constant thorn in my side is about as annoying as Rebecca Filth actually wearing clothes. These are things that shouldn't be happening.

And at Night of Champions, I'm going to put an end to you and your Black Sun.

You see, while you've been practicing your emo, angry voice and trying to prepare yourself for battle. I've been preparing as well. No, I haven't been doing anything as small minded and childish as jotting down insults on my hand to launch at you. I'm above such petty squabbling. No, instead, I've been doing what most professionals would do in my case. I've been preparing for battle. I've been watching footage. I've even been watching Magical Girl Transformation Compilations on PresTube just to make sure I'm ready for whatever you're going to throw at me.

Because that's all you have left. Throwing shit at the wall and hoping it sticks.

We've already been down this road as you like to bring up. If your alleged 'victory' over me is the entire basis for your next attempt at taking something that I've earned? Then I believe you're going to be in for some hard disappointments.

I don't make the same mistakes twice. If we're being completely honest, I very rarely make mistakes in the first place. I will admit that I've let you believe that I've underestimated you in the past. I've allowed you to wander around with my championship belt for a time. I even let you and my apparent mortal enemy, Mark Michaels, fight over the prestigious trinket only for it to end up in my hands again.

Almost as if I planned it. Huh.

And now, at Night of Champions, I get to start my second reign as a champion in this company. It starts by defending myself against your lackluster hissy-fit of tyranny while I set about establishing a new order for the people of Mount Olympus. When I step into that ring on Friday, I will be using you as the stepping stone you are and moving right on up the mountain to allow the Omegaverse and the World to see just how much Remington Ivory Prescott cares.

While you'll show them just how much of a failure you continue to be.

You see, the problem with your entire deal, Ryo, is that you're too damn predictable. Even without you spouting off that you don't give a fig or that you're going to 'tear me limb from limb', we all already knew that. That's what you always say. You just google more and more clips of Lazarus Arjen and Darkane and then say the most PG version of those things.

And I'm supposed to be scared? I'm supposed to be afraid for my life? I'm supposed to be worried that you might actually walk out of Night of Champions with the only reason I'm not snatching the Immortal Championship from Elijah Hampton right now? Is that what this whole BTS Cover of Linkin Park bullshit is about?

Well, I don't buy it. Not for a second.

I know you, Ryo. Better than you think. I'm not going to stand here and say that I know you because I've been you. Thank god I've never had to deal with such a waste of a life. And I'm not going to stand here and claim to know everything about you. Although, I've seen a few GIFs of Naruto so I think I get the gist. I'm not even going to pretend to know what it's like to be as incredibly selfish and weak as you've proven yourself to be. Just the thought of being in your shoes makes me want to commit seppuku in the suicide forest as I'm sure you feel every time you look in the mirror and realize there's nothing left for you to do on this Earth.

I want you to realize something, though. I want you to look at the differences between you and me. I want you to see just how different we are. I want you to realize that no matter how many times we face each other and how many chances you manage to get at my throne. I want you to realize that you're always punching above your pay grade. You're always going to be trying to battle your superior. You're always going to be trying to ice skate uphill. That's your lot in life. And while you may think that makes you the scrappy underdog in this here fight, in reality, that just makes you the shitty underachiever.

And everybody knows it.

So, maybe you should cheer up. Stop being so angry about what your future holds. Be thankful that I'm even allowing this charade of a match to happen. Be grateful that I'm using my platform as a champion here in the Omega Wrestling Alliance to showcase your lack of talent to many more eyes than would normally be on you. As the number one reason that Olympus remains as high in the ratings as it is, I cannot help but to give your existence a much needed boost.

Be that as it may, I would not get your hopes up. I am not distracted. I am not too snobby to take you seriously. I just don't take you seriously because you're a fucking joke. I don't need any more reason than that. I'm not worried about your rage or your wicked grin or your Black Sun. I just dealt with two black sons at Boiling Point and if I have to, I will call Madea. I almost called her to deal with Black and Mild but I'll let them have their tag team fun.

Whoomp, there it is!

No, Ryo, this is not your happy ending. This is your swan song. This is the end of the line for you. This is where you realize that everything you thought you were fighting for, you'd already lost. This is the part where you find out that everything you are, everything you strive to be, everything you try to accomplish, and everything you ever were has all led you to this moment. Right here. To be nothing more than a footnote at the bottom of the start to my true Reign. Not even an obstacle. Not even a hurdle. Simply a step on my way to redefining how the Omegaverse values Prestige. How the Omegaverse views and respects their Champions.

How they realize now that I am the future of OWA. Of Olympus.

And that I am burdened with Glorious Purpose.

{The voice seems to echo from somewhere in the darkness at which point Ryo Sakazaki steps out partially from the darkness, that creepy smile prominently on his face as he looks hard at the camera}


Ryo: Nice to know that all you can do is throw around a whole heaping load of stupidity, Remy. But the one person that I look to for inspiration at times, who just happens to have a rocking beard at the moment, did offer me one simple piece of advice that I will share with you now;


Bleed the prick slowly.


Needless to say that said "bearded elder" wants me to take my time and enjoy beating you senseless and beyond, to enjoy caving your skull in with my feet as I catch you with one Genki Cannonshot after another until you're practically brain dead from the constant boots to the head.


To which this is the only advice that I shall heed come Night of Champions.


But then again I think the brain damage has already been done from the way that you kept spewing nonsense in that "promo" that you cut, but then again I digress.


But as for you retaining *my* title...nah, I'm afraid that I must shatter those dreams of yours. 


I'm going to shatter them because, yes, despite all of your smirking and attempts at self-reassurance, you’re actually and honestly scared shitless that history will indeed repeat itself and that for all your bragging and scheming will be for nothing because while it’s one thing to mock me in a loss of a title defense, it’s a whole different matter to have gone through all that only to lose the exact same way to the exact same person *TWICE*!!


{Ryo’s smile then quickly disappears from his face}


Ryo: And to think, they call me “mad”?


{The smile then returns to Ryo’s face without missing a beat}


Ryo: But all joking and jovial bullshit aside, my dear Remy, you have to remember that while you stand there and point out that you’ve been a champion elsewhere that I can do the same thing as I am a champion in at least *two* other promotions allied in business and blood with the Omega Wrestling Alliance, so you don’t get to stand there and thump your chest at me, you bloodless little shit. 


 You ask me what am I actually fighting for, Remy? I’m fighting to take my championship back from an unworthy, bloodless little shit-weasel that is you…I’m also fighting to put an end to another fucking nay-sayer who claims that just because of my difficult past getting my early days in this promotion, of hearing the snickers from the boys in the back to the death chants from the fans in the front being thrown at me because of how difficult a time that I was having because I actually wanted to fucking *EARN* my goddamned keep right here in the Omega Wrestling Alliance!!


I’m fighting for fucking reasons that are far above your puny little shit-weasel brain can even begin to understand fully and that’s the truth, Remy. I’m going to take your damned fool of a head off to reclaim what is rightfully *mine* and to shut up even more of those fuckers who doubt my skills in that ring!!


You’re “reaching out to Brandon Hendrix and leading him to the Golden Land” is just as full of the same shit that fills your lungs, Remy. The only place that you’re going to lead that man is straight to the help wanted line because once you’ve gotten what you want from him, you’ll just toss him from the top of your non-existent money mountain with that hideous smirk on your face. 


And your claims about you took your “former rival” in Mark Michaels and “made him better” is about as true as saying that Donald Trump is actually Ronald McDonald doing a really bad cosplay, you tried to enslave a fucking gypsy and that, my dear hated rival, means that all kinds of curses of ill luck are about to make you their own personal bitch…for *LIFE*...


As for me, what I’ve been through wasn’t some “arsine reinvention” as you call it, you dumb *fuck*


Once I was a heroic version of what you are, I tried to be a hero here in the OWA. I wanted to be like Jeff X and my mentor Stephanie Matsuda or my boss, Chris Slayton. I tried so hard to be the hero…but that’s when the hatred kept raining down upon my head, all of those ungrateful fans screaming for me to die on live streams of the shows and pay per views….even some of my fellow people are calling me a “fake Japanese”....


{The wicked smile on Ryo’s face grows darker as the pupils in his eyes grow to small pinpoints but the rage is almost palpable as he speaks}


Ryo: But instead of giving into that hate, I took it and made it my fucking *OWN*, Remy. I took every ounce of hatred and rage that now flowed through my body and I simply gave up caring what the fans wanted or needed, and focused more on what needed to be done and to fuck *ALL* with the cost, to me myself or my opponents in that ring and that I would force all of those ungrateful fucks to understand that I’m not some fucking joke that shit-weasels like you seem to keep on assuming that I am.


I have embraced my inner demons, Remy. I have embraced them and made them my *OWN*...can you honestly stand there and look me in the eyes and say nor claim the same, Remy? 


Can you honestly say that you don’t have your own demons that don’t OWN your ass?


No…I don’t believe that you can.


Nor do I believe that you can even begin to understand what you are stepping into the ring with once again at Night of Champions, Remy. 


And I don’t blame you for your ignorance or failure to see the threat that I possess to your entire little “Kingdom” come Olympus, after all that’s all the ignorant king of the kingdom of the blind sees;


Nothing.


That is who I am, Remington. 


I am Ryo Sakazaki, the “Grinning Demon” of the Rogue Horsemen. The Blackened Soul of Olympus, the reigning and undefeated Strong Style Wrestling United States Heavyweight champion and one fourth of the South West Wrestling Syndicate’s World Tag Team Champions, and soon to be a *TWO* time Omega Wrestling Alliance Prestige Champion.


It *can* and *will* happen, Remington, and why yes…it will be done after you stop breathing.


Because after you witness that final Black Sun dawning upon you,  you will be doing nothing more than screaming all the way to the end as I walk out of Madrid with *MY* Prestige championship once again slung over my sexy shoulders. 


And the reason why I’ll be doing that is because not only because I have embraced the hate that you all have for me and made it my own…but also because in this place and time, history *WILL* repeat itself.


So grit your teeth hard, Remington Ivory Prescott, grit them good and hard and make sure that you eat all of your spinach like the good little bitch that you are because very shortly, I’m going to rip that fucking tree out of your ass and beat you into the bloody mat with it.


But if somehow you do manage to survive what is coming, understand this and understand it well;


Your sins will always catch up to you….in the end.


Be seeing you.


{Ryo then disappears back into the darkness, his demented laughter can be heard echoing as the screen fades to black}

The Banshee, Elijah Hampton and Remington Ivory Prescott have spoken. It’s such good shit!

BOOK OF RATS II:
“Sell Yourself, They Still Don’t Care.”


“Have you ever told a lie for so long, that even you start to believe it to be true? I’m sure we’ve all been there, for example; Me telling the world, telling myself, that my upbringing was normal when I was younger. That watching your father die was normal. That being abused in every way imaginable by a drunken stepfather was normal. That hearing your mother turning tricks in the next room just to make money to barely survive was normal. This is the exact same thing that Elijah Hampton has done, and is currently doing.”

Lazarus stood outside in Madrid, Spain. It was mid-day, the sky was on the brink of turning to a dreary gray. A system was rolling into the city, bringing rain with it that would pour onto the city in sporadic events. ‘The King of Rats’ stood with his back to a brick wall. A ratty, aged and cracked leather jacket worn over his black hoodie, the hood of which pulled over his head. His jeans were in tatters, rips and holes strewn all over the fabric. Those cold eyes of his turned, his head following suit - and he stared off into the distance for a moment.

“He lies, trying to convince himself - trying to convince everyone - that he’s a reluctant hero, but the truth of the matter is; he is exactly what he has been on record admitting himself as, generic arrogant asshole number whatever. He’s constructed a lie to convince the world that he battled Jacob Senn because it was the right thing to do; that he needed to avenge the Dynasty and all of those who Senn wronged. That he needed to be the knight in shining armor, but it was a ploy. A lie that he fabricated to mask his real motives - the Immortal Championship. He has you all believing that he never wanted the role, the responsibility of ‘hero’ - but that it was required of him. A requirement thrusted upon him by the people, by the need to fight for his brothers. All the while, his true motives have always been the championship. It didn’t matter who held the belt, he would have still progressed forward to it.”

“But has he done the job? Sure, he won the title and made it all seem like a feel-good moment, but did he convince anyone that he was the savior of Olympus?”


Lazarus’ lips crooked into a little smirk, while he simultaneously shook his head from side to side.

“While he supports the lie he’s fabricated by saying it was the people who wanted him to dethrone Senn, the people weren’t cheering and clapping for you because they were happy for you. They did that because they were happy Senn was out of the picture. You? No one truly cares for you, Elijah. You’re a supporting actor in this entire thing, you always have been - in the Dynasty, in the Ashes, in the Golden Dawn - and you always will be. A transitional champion whose only purpose was to usher away Jacob Senn and keep the belt warm until a new champion emerges. They don’t care for you. High School Prom Kings rarely move on to achieve any more success beyond that, and congratulations; you’ve done more than any other prom king in the history of that ridiculous title. But your faux-humility hasn’t worked, Elijah. The world sees you for exactly what you are; an arrogant asshole. And no matter how much you try to sell yourself, as a reluctant hero - as a proud Immortal Champion, they still don’t give care. In fact, beyond just care; they don’t give a shit. You are no better than any other champion, but you are worse. The thing you will have in common with the real icons and heroes before you, is that you promise you will do anything to keep your title only for it to be a lie. But the difference between guys like Darkane, Graham Baker, Noah Reigner and - yes, even Jacob Senn - is the fact that you just aren’t as memorable as them.”

Yet.


That little smirk he wore turned evil, something we’ve seen on more than one occasion. His eyes lit up with flames.

“I don’t mean that you’re going to embark on a historic or legendary reign. It’s the opposite, really - I mean that you’re going to be remembered for being disemboweled at Night of Champions, and having your entrails stretched from one end of Madrid to the other. The acts of pure, unadulterated hate and violence that are carried out upon you will be remembered. The torture, the mutilation, the dismemberment - but not you, not your reign. Do you remember the pain that surged through your body when I nearly crippled you months ago? That pain will feel like a simple needle prick to the finger in comparison to what I put you through at Night of Champions. And while we’re on the subject; don’t bother trying to fool anyone or yourself that you’re coming into this match at a hundred percent. The lead pipe that I used on you months ago has left lasting damage, and despite your win against Jacob Senn, you suffered more damage. And now you’re walking into one of the most violent situations you’ll ever find yourself in as a defending champion. As a defending champion with obvious weaknesses. Weaknesses which I will exploit.”

“Wounds that I will rip apart with malicious intent. Nagging injuries that I will further mangle with no fucking care about your well being. You need to realize something, Elijah, you have a lot more to lose than I do and I’m not just talking about your championship, and while I have every intention of taking your life at Night of Champions, I’m not even referring to that. What seems to matter more to you than a championship, than your own life that you said you would sacrifice and put on the line. You see, unlike you and most of the roster here, I don’t give a FUCK about what is expected of me, what others think of me, unlike yourself who spun tales of people needing and expecting you to be the one to step up to Senn. Perhaps one of your biggest weaknesses is that you actually care what your fellow Dynasty members think of you, you care about what these fucking fans do. So; what would they think of you losing your championship on your first ever defense? You’ll be seen as a failure, and to you - that is perhaps more crippling to you than my lead pipe was. You will find out what they think, though, and you will have to live with yourself being a fucking disappointment. You’ll have to live with yourself knowing that all of these people you’ve tried to sell yourself to, that all of these people that you wanted to avenge and stand up for in the Dynasty, don’t fucking care about you at the end of the day.”

“You’re just another asshole, to use your own words. The difference between you and I is; like you said, I’ll happily wear that badge. I’m a fucking asshole who gets off on stabbing up fucking sons of bitches like you. You, though? You will deny that honor, turn down that badge, and turn your nose up because of that arrogance. Elijah Hampton isn’t an asshole - he’s a reluctant hero. Elijah Hampton can’t be an asshole, he stood up to Jacob Senn because the fans needed him to, because his Dynasty brothers needed him too.”


Lazarus scoffed before stepping closer to the camera. His eyes focused, all of his rage focused.

“You are right though, Elijah. There is a major difference between you and I, a stark contrast of personalities. I’m a fucking killer and you’re not. You see a line, you stop and acknowledge it. I see it and I fucking cross it. I have no issues being that guy that disgusts people like you. I have issues being that guy that butchers and maims opponents; men and women alike, in order to advance - while it took months upon months for you to grow the balls that it took just to step up to Jacob Senn, when I have have slit his fucking throat the second he crossed me. The last time I was in Madrid, I left that fucking cunt Amber Payne in pieces in the ring, and at Night of Champions I plan to do the same to you.”

“You want to treat this defense as a test? It’s going to be one that you fail. I’m going to push you past your limit and won’t stop until I have you on your fucking knees begging me to put an end to your suffering.”

“But I won’t.”


His smirk turned into more of a wicked grin. His head lowered just a touch, his eyes moving up enough to still look directly into the camera. His voice would lower just slightly, his tone turning more sinister.

“I’m going to prolong this torture until you stop fucking breathing. Proving that your new found ‘Immortality’ is a fucking lie, and that you are not the champion you think you are.”

“A new era didn’t start when you defeated Senn, you only changed my target; from him to you. The uprising of the Rats was going to happen, no matter who held that championship - you are the unfortunate one to earn the right to call yourself the necessary victim of this forthcoming infestation.”


Without another word, he turned and walked around the building and out of camera view.

CUT TO: Alternate Camera Feed


The camera was stationary. A level shot, but not quite at hip level. The previous day, rain had fallen and pooled on the cracked and hole-filled street we’re currently viewing. Every now and then a car would drive by, splashing whatever remnants of water on the surface of the street - toward the side, only for it to be collected into those puddles against the curbs.

A hanging sign on the inside of the door was flipped to read ‘Open’ if you were to view it from outside. The building itself was encased in dark red brick with gray mortar, but the doorway was painted in all black. There was no official shop name on or above the door, just the word ‘TATTOO’ in a questionable design. The storefront of a tattoo parlor nestled in the outskirts of Madrid, Spain was the focus of this view - for now.

To the left side of the camera, a portion of a figure became visible after approaching from behind where it was set up. They stopped, showing just black jeans and the tail of a black leather jacket. They would stand there for a brief moment before an arm fell, the hand stopping in front of the camera lens. It was feminine, smaller than you would see on a male. The nails were painted in black with the exception of the index finger which was a dark, blood red. Between their fingers was a lit cigarette, smoke rising from the lit end. What was worth noting in this visual, though, wasn’t her - wasn’t the cigarette either, but the letters “B.E.U.” tattooed on the outside edge of her hand.

She waited a moment, watching Lazarus walk out of the alley and into the tattoo parlor. After waiting for minutes, she flicked the cigarette to the ground and stepped off of the curb toward the shop.

The Banshee, Darkane, Elijah Hampton, Rebecca Filth, Remington Ivory Prescott, Felix Hartley and C have spoken. It’s such good shit!

OWA Promos - Page 15 Ucpn4wn

“You have a meet and greet in San Diego at noon and a cameraman meeting you in El Segundo around five, you’ll have time to get your workout in after the meet and greet but, Rich, you really need to make sure you blah blah blah bl-”

He drowned out the sound of his assistant’s voice. He was growing restless. Some days, Rich’s days are full of meet and greets and signings and interviews. Other days, like today, it was just one big thing and another thing he can do in his sleep. He thought hiring an assistant was going to help him with his busy life. With all the companies he’s joined, it’s difficult to keep track of where he needed to be and when he needed to be there. What he didn’t expect was his assistant to constantly remind him where he needed to be and when he needed to be… every. single. day.

He looked at his phone and glazed over his weekly itinerary. His constant trips to Japan and other countries, mixed in with a sprinkle of other SoCal spot shows have really kept him busy over the past few months. Rich Gatsby wanted to prove he was the best, and if that meant traveling the world and fighting for every promotion known to man, so be it.

“...leave LAX for Spain on Thursday. Oh! He called again, by the way.”

“Who?”

“Rich, you know who.”

An old business partner. One who gave him the opportunity to do what he does. Basically, the man who made the man THAT MAN.

“Tell him-”

“That you’re busy. I did that. He’s just been very,” his assistant paused, trying to think of the polite word for a-pain-in-the-ass. “Persistent.”

“That’s who he is, queen,” he says with a slight chuckle. “It’s why he’s still one of the best to ever do it. If he keeps callin’, let him know I’ll hit ‘im back when I get the time.”

His assistant nods and starts to type something on her phone. Gatsby sat back in his leather recliner and swiped through his phone. “Omega this Friday,” he said to himself. “Then Japan…” He wondered if he’d run into that girl again. He had her number and is a simple text away…

“Nah.”

He took a sip of his coffee and continued to look through his phone. Despite having an assistant, Rich still liked to look over things. He enjoyed that control, even though he’s paid someone to do it for him. He hired a fight team to help him stay fresh inside the ring but dictated what he wanted to focus on during that session. He has a personal trainer on call, but never calls him up, coming up with his own program.

Rich Gatsby liked the idea of relying on others. He wanted to believe that there were like-minded individuals who could have the same drive that he had. But the reality of Rich Gatsby’s world is that if he wanted to get things done, he had to do it himself.

- - - - - - - - -

“I used to think I was the APEX of this business… then I realized I ain’t shit.”

Fade in. The sun is an afterthought as it sets in the west, brightening the sky a fiery orange. Rich Gatsby sat on a bench on the pier, overlooking the Pacific Ocean. It was a sight he never got tired of seeing when he was younger - the way the sun melted into the horizon, bringing on the night and the unknown that followed.

“I came in and took over the damn thing. I came in with that pitbull mentality, y’know? I grabbed a little bit of success and held on to that muh’fucka till they pried it away from me. Maybe it was the timing. Maybe it was pure luck. All I know is that I came up to the spot and shit blew up. I showed my dedication to the craft. I showed love to this business and this business loved me right the fuck back.”

Gatsby fiddles with something on the floor, distracting him from making his point.

“But I lost focus. I forgot how cruel the fuckin’ business could be because I was on top eatin’. I forgot what it was like barely gettin’ crumbs,” he threw whatever he was toying with into the ocean below. “I forgot how it was to be hungry.”

“I ain’t gonna lie, I ain’t been hungry for a long ass muh’fuckin’ time. I’ve been blessed with success and my bank account ain’t never goin’ negative again because of it. I’ve invested in the best trainers, the best support staff, the best er’thing cuz Big GAT ain’t just the man. I’m THAT MAN. And THAT MAN ain’t out here workin’ for free. I got people to put in the work for me. I don’t need Catch Sports Academy to teach me how to put people in knots. I just get my own fuckin’ mat technicians to train me. I’ve learned a long ass time ago that the only person you can rely on in this sport is your own damn self… shout out to you, Kai Stevens.”

Gatsby chuckles, remembering the first time he met the former SSW Puroresu Heavyweight Champion. His interactions with him in his rookie year in ALPHA continued to leave an imprint on how Rich is today.

“So when it came to becoming the best I possibly can be, I thought hiring people would help… but DARKANE proved that shit wrong. Darkane, of all people, made me look like I was still some fuckin’ greenhorn in this business. And congrats, Darkane. You made a fool out of Rich Gatsby. You ain’t the first, and you most definitely ain’t finna be the last.”

“I ain’t dead, though. Shit, I made it known I’m still the one to fuck with after beating Silver Kazama a couple of weeks back. Y’all wanted to strike when the iron was hot but they forgot that I’m made out of fuckin’ adamantium, homie. I ain’t bendin’, I ain’t breakin’, no matter how hot shit you think you might be. For all the Silver Kazamas in the world, you step up to Boss Man GAT, you best be ready for a fuckin’ fight… and Silver ain’t it. Ya done, son.”

“That’s one down, and two more to go, y’all. I get two more successful defenses and I drop this title and get another crack at that OWA Immortal Heavyweight Championship. Shit, I get another crack at Elijah Hampton. Courtesy of Kaden Farmer III. Muh’fucka came in and in one night shook the very foundation of Olympus. I have an opportunity to earn my ass another shot at the biggest title in Olympus and all I gotta do is beat Silver Kazama- check - and you, C.”

With that, Gatsby finally looks over at the cameraman, directing his focus into the lens as if addressing C themselves.

“You used to be the biggest and baddest in your promotion. You were - in my opinion - the brightest stars for APEX Pro. But then what happened, homie? What happened to all that momentum you built? All the work you put in, just to be synonymous with APEX? Gone. At the drop of a hat. That depression sunk in, right C? Waste of fuckin’ time. Believe me, I know. It happened to me, too.”

“But we ain’t talkin’ bout the past, right, homie? We ain’t talkin’ ‘bout APEX. Or ALPHA. Or how your former boss took the ALPHA World Heavyweight Championship and essentially took a fuckin’ shit on it. Cuz that’s neither here nor there.”

“We talkin’ ‘bout right now.”

“This fuckin’ moment.”

“Because what’s gonna happen, C, is that you and I are heading to Madrid and we finna lock horns like bulls on parade. You and I are gonna link up in Spain and I’m putting this Icarus Championship on the line for my second defense. Ain’t no multi-man tag for a company that don’t exist. It’s just gonna be me standing across from you, homie. And just like Silver Kazama, you ‘bout to fuck around and find out.”

“The Purifier versus The Juggernaut. You want to make wrestling pure again, you want honor back in this business. Me? I want to own this fuckin’ business. I’ve been part of this business long enough to know that this shit’s corrupt. I used to think just like you, C. I used to think that everyone in this business was inherently good. But the more I travel the world. The more I watch as best friends tear each other apart. The more I see families being broken because Mama or Pops can’t be home for birthdays cuz they gotta make the next town. The more I know that there is nothing to save this business.”

Gatsby nonchalantly leans against the railway.

“Yeah, I’m a fool for thinkin’ that we could, but look at the landscape we’re in right now, C. Look at what you joined. Twelve titles, including APEX Pro’s World Championship, are acknowledged here. Twelve! That means that this company had to bend for these hungry head-ass muh’fuckas; they had to make titles to appease this roster. Pathetic. Instead of rewarding the best of the best, they give participation awards to guys like Chad Eccelstone and shit, just to make them feel like they actually a part of something. This title right here? The OWA Icarus Championship? I used to respect it, I wanted to make this title the top title in all of the OWA, let alone Olympus. I’m a firm believer that the man makes the title and I had every fuckin’ intention to do that. Then KF3 comes along and says “Fuck that title! If you want the better title, then beat three bitch-made bitches and you get to trade it in for the BETTER title!” So you tell me, C. You tell me what’s the point of holding on to this title if all it is is a stepping stone to get to the Immortal Heavyweight Championship. No wonder James Diamond decided to drop this belt. It’s no wonder why these titles don’t mean jack shit.”

“C, I’ma do what I gotta do, homie. I’ma cash in my chips and make sure I eat. I’ve been watchin’ the tape. I’ve seen how you fuck with it in the ring. I know you capable of finding my weaknesses and beatin’ my ass. There’s no use pretending I’m invincible, because everyone in this business is. Whether it's physically, mental, or emotional - everyone has that weakness in them. Guys like me? I can physically overpower any muh’fucker I want. People like Banshee? They fuck with your mentals. Guys like Darkane fuck with you doing all three. I know throughout the course of this match you will find my flaws, but the same can be said for me, homie. When that bell rings, I’ma find out what makes you tick. I’ma find out what makes The Purifier… impure. I’ma make you tap into your dark side, homie. I’ma make you hate me, despise me, do everything you physicially, mentally, and emotionally can to break me. I know this because that’s exactly what I plan on doing with you.”

“I’m done with the games, yo. I’m done pretending to be something I’m not. Y’all want the real GAT? Y’all finna see the real GAT! Same muh’fucka that walked the streets a few mile away from here bangin’ on these fools. The difference between that GAT and this GAT?”

“I got money.”

“With money comes power. With power comes respect. I’ve paid people to mold me into the person I want to be. I’m in that ring, on that mat, every chance I get to become the best professional wrestler in the world. I ain’t gonna rest until I get there, C. Can’t stop. Won’t stop. That’s how we do where I’m from, homie. Be ready for Night of Champions…

You Again?


OWA Promos - Page 15 LlEbPD


"Seriously? We're doing this again?

Remington Ivory Prescott versus Ryo Nakatomi Plaza? For the OWA Prestige Championship? I feel like I'm in a rerun.

Anyway.

Let's pretend for just a moment that Ry-Gi-Oh has somehow managed to find the ability to actually become a threat to my reign. Let's take a second, after laughing hysterically, to realize that this nutbar has decided to try and tempt fate. To try and oust me from my hard earned Prestige Championship for a second time.

Oh, that's right. I haven't forgotten about the debacle that happened the last time the two of us were in That Very Ring fighting over this damn belt. I haven't forgotten about the way you weaseled your way into a highly contested and unworthy victory. A victory that, if I had my way, would be marred with an asterisk due to your unfavorable ways. But, unlike the likes of you, Remington Ivory Prescott is a professional. And while a lesser man, like Mark Michaels, would whine and cry about the bad officiating that resulted in my losing the Prestige Championship to such an underwhelming individual as yourself, I didn't do that.

I accepted my fate and I moved on to better things.

I reached out to Brandon Hendrix and gave him an opportunity at greatness. A path that he's now standing tall and proud on because of me and my resources at PresCorp. I have set him on a path towards fame and glory and there will be very little that can or will stand in his way.

I also took a former rival of mine, Mark Michaels, under my wing. I attempted to help shape and mold this man into something better. I even set him up to reclaim what I took from him in the first place. Which he did. And yet, this man turned his back on me and resisted all my efforts to show him a better and brighter future. I offered him my guidance and my assistance and he tried to kill me. So I took the Prestige Championship back and put it back where it belongs.

Around my waist.


And that's what brings us back here. For some ungodly reason, at Night of Champions, I'm going to be defending my title against the Hiroshima leftover that couldn't hold onto it in the first place? Is that how we're doing things now? This is almost as bad as the time I had to face Slob Osterlund! You know what, it's actually worse. Because at least Slobby Boy was fighting for a family that really needed anything to cling to. I swear, poor people just do anything to make ends meet.

So I guess that brings me to my question about this whole deal, Ryo? What is it that you hope to accomplish? What is it that you want? What are you actually fighting for?

Because from where I'm standing, you don't stand a chance. You don't have anything of value to offer anyone or anything. And I'm not just talking about you wasting the time of the Omega Wrestling Alliance and Mount Olympus. No, we've all pretty much grown to accept that you're just going to be around until the end of time and there's not a damn thing we can do about it. You'll keep dye-ing your hair and grinning demonically one week then activate your trap card the next. There's a lot of superficial layers to you and I understand you're trying to find your place here but...

It's not going to be as Prestige Champion. Not anymore.

You had your chance and you blew it. You let that traitorous welp Mark Michaels do what he does best and now you're scrambling to try and get your mitts back onto something that was too good for you in the first place. And after I've worked so tirelessly and so hard to regain what I never fairly lost, well, there's absolutely no chance in hell I'm letting you leave with it.

Not while I'm breathing.

Not while I continue to trailblaze every single moment of my career while yours is a consistent attempt to climb out of the pile of shit that you've managed to amass on top of yourself through asinine reinvention, anger management courses, and an unhealthy dose of Crunchyroll marathons. Your lack of self-awareness is a bigger threat to your own hypocrisy than your people were to Pearl Harbor.

But let's take a second and look at things through a more objective lens. For the sake of argument. From what I've gathered through a shallow dive into the world of OWA.com, because anything more would've been a waste of my time and money, is that you've been hanging around the company for about two years. Maybe give or take some months. In that time you've managed to not only not make an impression on anyone in this organization or any of the people watching, you've also managed to blow through every Asian stereotype known to -San. And this is in a company that employed a man named Aizen for god's sake.

And yet, here you are, still milling about at the feet of giants. Here you are still at the bottom of the mountain that you should've climbed years ago. Here you are fighting for the same belt that you barely had a chance to get resized for when you entered your Sumo Phase. You've hit your glass ceiling, my friend. I think it's time to find something else to do with your time.

You know, I know a couple of people in the Benihana world. I could maybe get you a job waiting tables or something. I'll make some calls.

Now, in contrast to your stagnant nature, we have someone that has managed to become a household name since his arrival here in OWA. Someone that has battled some of the legends in this great company. Someone that has dethroned Kings, broken Thrones, and redefined sports entertainment by simply choosing to make it a part of his life. A man that has lapped you in every single career move and done it in less time.

And that man is me. Remington Ivory Prescott.

Since my arrival I have had a hand in almost every single major shift or movement on Olympus. I've had the red carpet rolled out for me. I've amassed a fanbase of an insurmountable number. I've slain Romani and ended Gypsical Reigns with the wave of a hand. I even managed to make you look good when your heinous actions against me cost me the Prestige Championship the first time. I've had Mount Olympus on my back since I signed on the dotted line while you've been nothing more than a blemish, a stain on everything that I, and a handful of others, have been working so hard to accomplish.

You're the cockroach that threatens to bring down the whole foundation, Ryo. And at Night of Champions, I'm going to do what Terminix has failed to do and that's put you down. For good.

Contrary to popular belief, I am not the villain here. I've done nothing but what everyone else does around here. I do whatever it takes to make sure that my hand is raised at the end of my match. I lay all my cards out on the table. My brutal honesty is what gets other people's panties all bunched up. They hate to see that I came into this business as a fully realized person and that every step I take is just another obstacle in their lives and careers. I've taken this entire company by storm and soon it'll be my face on the front of every damn poster that's used to promote OWA.

PresCorp Presents. An OWA Event. And so on. But I digress.

Let me wrap this up for you, Ry Zero Academia, so that you can bury your head in the sand and hope that I don't decide to put you out of all of our misery come Night of Champions. The name alone should tell you exactly how this is going to go. It's the Night of Champions. Not challengers. Not losers that don't deserve to be in the same ring as Champions in the first damn place. Not stereotypically diverse Real Slim Shady-sans that find it necessary to try and take away the accomplishments of those that truly deserve to be in the limelight.

You are not the hero of this story, Ryo. You're not even in the same book.

When all is said and done, you'll be back down to the bottom of the barrel like you auditioned for BOBW and the rest of Olympus can breathe easier knowing that I, Remington Ivory Prescott, did the entire organization a favor by putting the Grinning Demon in a pine box. I'll buy everyone some sake and we'll toast to your demise.

So go on. Spend the next few days trying to power up. Grab some spinach sushi or suck off a luck dragon or whatever it is you people do over there. Aren't fortune cookies kind of a universally asian trope? Open one of those. Pray to your fallen sensei or some other bearded man of inscrutable wisdom. Exhaust every option you have in your arsenal because you're going to need it if you're coming for my belt, my title, my crown.

As a matter of fact, take everything I just said and do it a few dozen times because I can guarantee you that it won't be enough to stop me. To stop my reign. The name Remington Ivory Prescott will soon be synonymous with the OWA Prestige Championship. I've already cleansed this belt of the horrid Romani smell. I think I can handle keeping it away from the local Korean BBQ joint with just as much ease. I will no longer allow this glorious title to be marred by the hands of Lesser Thans and Peasants. This title is the next step on my rise to the top of Mount Olympus. And as I seek to return this gold to the incredible 'prestige' that it gained when I accomplished this task the first time, I will make it my life's mission to never again allow you to challenge for something so far above your pay grade.

Maybe I'll talk to Scott Oasis and we can get you a My American Championship belt made by Fisher-Price. Or maybe we can get you a Green Card as a consolation prize. Or, better yet, we can just shuffle you into the latest JPop group and find you another reason to live. We'll figure something out.

Night of Champions might be your last hoorah, Ry-Gi-Oh. I suggest you get your affairs in order.

Sayonara."

Remington Ivory Prescott carefully lowers the OWA Prestige Championship into an expensively padded briefcase. He smirks as he pulls the lid down, his thumbs clicking the locks closed without missing a beat. His hand brushes across the front of the briefcase, his Kryptonite Ring shimmering in the light as those fingers pass over the engraving on the front of the briefcase.

Remington Ivory Prescott grabs the handle of the briefcase and pulls it with him as he turns his back to the camera to walk off towards the exit at the back of the room. He holds his phone up to his ear as he strides with glorious purpose.

"Vanity? I need that paperwork by Friday. It's Night of Champions." Remington Ivory Prescott takes a moment to pause at the doors, his lips curling up into a bit of a devious smirk. "The perfect time to introduce the Omegaverse to their new and most prestigious title to date..."

Remington Ivory Prescott takes a moment to allow a dramatic pause to set in. The glass door in front of him is opened and Adora Kincaid can be seen on the other side of it as Prescott walks out.

"... the PresCorp Championship."

{We open to darkness and once again, Ryo Sakazaki partially steps out of it and into the light, a rather wicked looking smile crosses his face as he does so}


Ryo: Remy, Remy, Remy. How does it feel to know that for all of your scheming, lying, cheating, and stealing…it was all for nought? How does it feel knowing that in just a few more days you’re going to be right back where you started…you entering the match as the Prestige champion only to lose it to me for a *second* time around?


And the worst thing about it is how do you know that it won’t happen twice in just as many weeks? What kind of things can you do to try and keep your championship this time and you from being witnessed to a Black Sun? 


{Ryo taps a singular finger against his jaw as he adopts a “thinking pose” for a moment before he stops and gives the camera long sideways look before he smiles once more}


Ryo: Spoiler alert…no, there is no chance for you to avoid it because at Night of Champions, history *WILL* repeat itself because people like you, little Remy, people like you constantly belittle and overlook people like me…the crazy mother fuckers who will always be going past that extra mile to get the job done and that’s exactly what I’ll do at the show because I have defied the fucking odds once and I will fucking do it again.


And there’s not a damned thing that you can do to stop me, Remy. Because no matter how hard that you scheme, how hard you pray, how hard you lie, cheat, steal, or what the fuck ever…I’m still going to beat you and I’m still going to put my wee boot right through your wee skull and enjoy the feeling of your brain matter squishing between my oh so sexy toes!!


But tell me, Remy, tell me just how are you preparing for this match, are you going to take it seriously or are you going to try and come up with some kind of grandiose plan like the last time that backfired *horribly* in your face because I still walked out with the title?


However, to show you that I’m not such a bad guy…I’m going to tell you my plan for our match at Night of Champions so that you know exactly what’s coming and that way, it’ll give you a chance to prepare for it alright?


Now listen closely, because here we go.


{Ryo then beckons the camera man to come closer and when he does, Ryo acts like he’s about to tell the camera man a big “secret”}


Ryo: Are you listening, Remy. Because I want you to come real close to the tv, just like mister camera here, because I’m only going to say this once…alright?


My plan for what I’m going to do at Night of Champions is this…I’m going to fucking tear you apart, Remy.


The last time I was being polite to you when I tore you down from your self-made ivory pedestal there, Remy. This time, I’m going to show you the exact same level of respect that you’ve been showing me this entire time by not giving a fig about your well being throughout this entire match.


{Ryo’s face breaks out into that smile once again, causing the camera man to take a couple of stumbling steps backwards in reaction as he reaches up and grabs a handful of his blonde hair in his right hand and starts to yank at it hard}


Ryo: Can you wrap your fucking little mind around that shit there, Remy?! Can you simply understand that I’m going to win not only the match *BUT* also take my championship back because you simply don’t have what it takes to put me down for the three, Remy, and *IF* you did then we wouldn’t even have made it to this point to begin with, now would we..you little snobby shit?


Sure, you can stand there and dictate to everyone watching that you’re going to win because I’m just some nobody with a history of losing and you’ll probably try and throw in the fact that you are supposedly smarter than me and how you’ve got all of the bloody aces going into this match…but you see, for all that dictation and bragging there is one simple truth that you’ll never be able to forget or ignore;


I’m living rent mother fucking *free* in your *HEAD*!


And it goes right back round to the fact that we’ve already had this dance, you and I…and I beat you at your own game as well and I did it all without anyone backing me up or serving as my own personal fucking lap POODLE!!


Everything that I’ve done in this company has been from the sweat of my own brow, the blood boiling in my veins, and the rage beating in my heart has kept these hands at many a throat these past few years and has kept me going through the dark times and into the darker times because I’m not the crazy asshole that just up and quits when the going gets tough…no, I’m the crazy asshole that will burn every mother fucking thing down just to get his fucking point across!!


Can you say the same thing for yourself, Remy? 


Can you honestly stand there, look me dead in the eyes, and tell me that everything that you’ve earned in your precious corporation is from your own blood stained hands? 


Because honestly I don’t think so.


I don’t think that you can do that because how you speak, how you walk, and how you talk that you don’t understand what *REAL* effort is…because if you honestly did then maybe, just maybe you might have a fucking chance in hell to keep history from repeating itself this week on Olympus.


And yes, I will admit that a fault of mine is that I tend to give my opponent a Devil’s Advocate look and say that they might have a chance in hell of beating me honestly…but not this time.


Not this fucking time.


And no, it’s not because I believe that this is history repeating itself, folks.


No, it’s because in reality you…Remington Ivory Prescott…lack anything that resembles a true killer instinct.


You’d rather plot and plan than actually get your hands dirty because naturally you believe that you’re above the rank and file of your fellow wrestlers…you believe that you are a  “First Among Equals” as a certain asshole that I know of who loves to claim and ramble on and on about.


You are not a “First Among Equals”, Remy, you’re just some schmuck who just lucked into a wrestling career and that’s why at Night of Champions, once more the Black Sun is going to set violently on you and history will once more repeat itself, as I take my title back and shatter your fragile illusions of grandeur once again…


Be seeing you soon, Remy. Make sure that you eat your spinach…


{Ryo gives the camera one last smile before pulling himself back into the darkness as the screen fades out}

Remington Ivory Prescott has spoken. It’s such good shit!

Re: OWA Promos
Post November 26th 2022, 7:41 am by Darkane
The older I get, the more isolated I become and sometimes it’s best to forget the world even exists even if it’s only temporary.

Why do you think I live in a desolate cabin by a cemetery? For one thing, my neighbors are dead, so nobody’s gonna make a racket and for another, it’s snuggled away from the general population. The only thing I trust nowadays is the APEX World Championship because it’s in my possession. If 2022 has taught me anything it's that I don't walk around on eggshells because I’m scared shitless, but I am a bit more cautious about who is true and who is shit now more than ever before. So when leather slits like Liz Karlson come knocking with bloody knuckles I know what more or less to expect. Doesn’t everybody have a motive and a cross or two to bear?

My priorities have changed. For a while I had lost focus of hunting down championships, I put gold on the back burner. I let it simmer in the shadows while I dealt with otherworldly forces. So when Matt Miles fed me the idea of competing for the APEX World Championship, that urge, that sweet yet hoggish urge for gold returned in a flash. And as if a lightning bolt pierced right through me I was supercharged. I knew that championship was MINE.

Everyone knew it was absolute. It was inevitable. I was inevitable.

It took me less than ten minutes.

I squashed four other peons in what was supposed to be a fucking barn burner. It was supposed to be C’s moment in the sun but he wasn’t even a fucking factor. It was supposed to be Gat’s main event certificate but he dropped the ball when he had the chance. It wasn’t until that cunt in a gimp suit ruined my moment afterwards did it really settle in.

I was back; better yet I was champion again and I already had a target on me.

I don’t know why you needed to conceal your identity Liz, I thought you were the type of person to face things head on. For the days that followed I was convinced it was Finnegan Wakefield. I thought to myself - no wonder he pulled a phantom of the opera, because if he did show his face, I would have sent him vacuum packed into the shadow realm where he belongs just like old fucking times so it couldn’t have been him. It wasn’t until you tried to blow me up on my motorcycle that it dawned on me and then I heard your voice and smelled the mackerel between your fucking legs to seal the deal. So you high tail it with a departing smoke bomb, really? I coulda generated more smoke in one blunt than you did in that eighth grade science project masquerading as makeshift cover. I don’t know what GI-Joe routine you got going on but the thing about ammo is you eventually run out.

And I eventually catch you.

The attacks? They’re done.

The games? They’re over.

Truthfully I kinda wish it was Finnegan instead, because it’s fun to beat on his sad crying clown in an iron lung ass into an even further depression. What’s your excuse? What stands out about Liz Karlson? Another plain jane tough cookie perpetually on the rag who can throw hands with the best of them but can’t hit anyone where it counts. Is this what the APEX World Championship has boiled down to already? Luring out all the APEX rejects off the dusty shelves? At least give me Diantha Rosso, Judith, or Josie Grey, somebody with actual pull to them. Somebody that will make me pause for a second before I kill them dead. I wasn’t disappointed when you took off the mask, I was indifferent because this is much more of a litmus test for you than it is for me. I’ve been the measuring stick around these parts for years. I’ve seen ‘em all come and fucking go but in a way I admire your aggression even if it is to a fault, even if it drags you down kicking and screaming. But this isn’t my first rodeo Liz. I’ve fought people who scrap like their head is on fire, such as the aforementioned Graham Baker but let me tell you something about him. He was a bootleg Darkane that caught lightning in a bottle once and did fuck all with it. Now he’s gone and I get his little offspring hatchling who is on a Promethean Chamber side quest to try and take away the very reason I’m here.

Look at you, fishing for empathy; trying to tear jerk your way to the top while you pivot and throw a blanket over your failures in APEX and your failures as a singular entity in OWA. Do you really wanna know why APEX died? You tapped out like a fucking fairy to a move I laughed in Finnegan Wakefield’s face at. So no, you do have a limit, you do have a cap, a body bag won’t be fucking necessary. As soon as you tapped out, the company spun the chamber on the revolver and blasted itself into meaty chunks like a game of Russian roulette. No wonder you’re so dismayed. You should feel that way, you should feel the shame and humiliation and now here in OWA you’re begging for a second chance? You’re trying to right your wrongs and fix things that are too far gone. You’re doing everything in your power to cover your fucking ass, to absolve yourself of guilt with an Openweight Championship here, a Tag Team Championship run there with your hand held. Alyssa’s not gonna be there to save the day and if she does show up, I’ll spike her into the canvas as well. It’s time for you to step up to the plate and stop acting like you’re a victim. This was your own bed that you fucking made. Nobody else gave up. Nobody else waved the white flag and nobody else is acting like a deflated attention whore. Look at me! Look at my redemption arc! I’m gonna rewrite the history books, even though I’ve been pampered in OWA by Alyssa, Nobi, Noah Reigner and others! I know I can’t take down Darkane on my own, but I’ll still keep churning and churning! Nothing will stop me! I’m just a delusional twat that’s sour not only because I pissed my championship away, but because Darkane made it look like a goddamn cakewalk. Newsflash, Matt Miles chose me to be the one to challenge for The APEX Championship. He never even thought of you and why is that?

Because APEX’s blood is on your hands.

The APEX World Championship isn’t a hot potato, it certainly isn’t a meme, and I’m not gonna idly sit on my thumbs as a placeholder for your atonement. I’m not going to be apart of your fairytale ending, I’m going to be the one that puts you fucking down. I don’t give a rat’s ass about how you feel dissatisfied with how APEX shit the bed. I don’t care how passionate you are about The APEX World Championship because as far as you’re willing to go? I will meet you every step of the way into the angry flames with a half crescent smile etched on my face. It doesn’t matter how deep you dig, it doesn’t matter if you reach into the Graham Baker reserves and channel his spirit within yourself. I made that man my fucking mutt for a year until he finally broke through. I was in that man’s head for MONTHS and I put my feet up on his fucking psyche. I drove him to complete lunacy, I spun him in circles and now his pigeon chested heir wants to piggyback off of his legacy? Babygirl, I don’t know how to break it to you, but that ship has sailed.

But you don’t care about that, do you?

It’s full steam ahead.

Right into a brick wall.

Right into the yawning black wings of Darkane.

This isn’t a quick pitstop before Hardcore Havoc and no matter how much you sing my praises, it falls on deaf ears when you fired the first shot. You underestimated me the second you lit me up with that chair at Boiling Point. Right then, right there is where the hourglass sands started to trickle down. You sealed your own fucking demise because now? I get a chance to fight back, none of this hit and run bullshit that’s been going on the past couple of weeks. I know you saw the look in my eyes when I had you cornered backstage, the feverish maddening look a guy gets when he’s about to drop a nuke on a bitch. Forget the promethean chamber - I’M the final boss and I’m going to crunch you the fuck up into a meaty ball and chuck you back over into Odyssey waters where you belong. The APEX World Championship is going nowhere and I don’t give a fuck if I’m not the person “pegged” to hold this championship. I possess the only living thing yanked from the corpse of a dead company. I pulled her out of hospice and I gave her new meaning. The naysayers don’t matter to me, the poorly drawn stick figures don’t matter to me, what matters to me is putting The APEX World Championship on a fucking pedestal to where it’s unmatched. And to do that I will have to defend her with the utmost honor, starting with your broken ass. It’s not enough to fend off a straggler from another brand. I have to send a message to you, to anybody, anybody from any brand that if they want The APEX World Championship, then they will have to sacrifice everything they have and even that won’t be enough.

It’ll never be enough.

If you think I’m a paper champion, try me, I’ll posterize you and make Liz Karlson look like the little girl who frolicked just a bit too far into the woods. Except I’m not the big bad wolf.

I’m Darkane and I’ll spit out your bones like wood chips.

I know you’re gonna come at me with all the hostility in the world. I know you’re going to come up with ten different ways to say that you’re not afraid and that you won’t back down like some sort of shitty Disturbed single. I know you’re painted as the engine that could but you’re not going to make it up the mountain.

I am the fucking mountain.

And when I see you trying to scale me, I’ll laugh in your face and shake the snow off my shoulders before I throw you alllllll the way down. Past the soil, past the rotting carcass of APEX, past whatever dimension your boy Graham Baker is floating around in and into the place you fear to land the most.

Irrelevancy.

Re: OWA Promos

Ah, Black Friday is here.
 OWA Promos - Page 15 Dt_the18
I’m sure some of you will question why I’m deciding to speak now instead of enjoy this... “Thanksgiving” holiday weekend. Well, my employees, distant family members, and the mistresses can celebrate it however they feel, but I’m not a fan; I rather not.

The Ruler did, however, celebrate taking the Tag Team Championships with Mr. Raivo. Of course, we had to take time to enjoy our first triumph over oppressive forces as a unit...

Once you open your mind and learn about the actual meaning behind Thanksgiving instead of standing by the Mother Goose level remix of it, you just grow unfeeling towards its existence through commercialization and lies. Instead, I focus on other aspects of this weekend, but especially Black Friday. For those that don’t research or read very much, Black Friday is technically not a holiday but a business day, and while the past usage of the namesake is much more severe in the eyes of various economists, the current phrasing is utilized by businesses to indicate the beginning of the Holiday Season, where people are persuaded to waste the time, energy, and money to help many businesses move from the “red” to the “black” for the rest of the year so as to profit before Tax Season reaches.

However...

For The Ruler, business has been going relatively well. My employees and advisors have been diligently at work as to assure we do not have to rely on Black Friday to profit. Bigger retailers have to crutch along to not just profit but clear out older product in their inventory. Electronics especially need to go, knowing how those products become obsolete within the snap of the fingers. Toys, clothes, Holiday “food”: all of it must leave the shelves and be taken by the consumers.

Understand, though...

The reason I mentioned Black Friday is not because it has the term “Black” included in its context, though that is a good enough reason. The Ruler mentioned the day because of my coming opposition for the next edition of Kingdom. I know the viewing audience has paid enough attention to see the newer talent that has come about OWA since my return. And I’m sure a lot of you have heard of a young man in one Mr. Taniguchi Sena. You see Mr. Sena started off rocky, pretty turbulent, standing up to Mr. Jack Daito and has been one very dynamic roller coaster, mostly on his own volition. For all who do not know, Mr. Taniguchi Sena is a young boy I’ve crossed paths with more than once. The first time was at OWA’s Clash of the Titans event, and though it was brief, he was there. Was he as impressive as myself? Of course not, but he was present and he had just as much of a chance to leave an impression at the least.

It just wasn’t his time, I assume.

And honest truth, I don’t know when his time will come if ever, because if there’s been a major myth The Ruler has had to break after returning, it’s that the Japanese talent that’s been signed to OWA is not anywhere near the fighting-spirit-go-as-hard-as-possible-never-give-up archetype many have been overexposed to since even the 1980s of their respective homelands. We’ve had maniacal terrorists, a boy Mr. Raivo regularly refers to as a “twink”, a couple females sprinkled around that straddle the fence of whoredom and lunacy, and of course we have the trail mix of trainees and graduates of the school created by an associate of mine in Mr. Carlos Rosso. And even amongst those people, there’s such a mix that you can’t really paint them with the same type of brush. But even with that, the ones that revel in who they are, who lack control: you must accept how they depict themselves. And in the case of one Mr. Taniguchi Sena, The Ruler has noticed a lot of inconsistency when it comes to this boy, and I don’t respect that if displayed by any competitor.

You see with Mr. Raivo and myself, For The Minorities is indeed everything the name entails: standing up to injustices in this company towards people such as us. But even still, the minorities have to show themselves worthy of defending or they’ll end up being left to waddle in the waters like others who showed their true colors against what people such as us stand for. Look at that turkey, Jason Whitlock, as an example: a fat and sloppy piece of pseudo-“Coonservative” shit, constantly pulling out Hot Takes on the level of Howard Stern and Don Imus. And ultimately, when his overlords stopped finding his abrasive opinions entertaining, he was cast to the side and disposed of, sent to flounder in obscurity under the YouTube algorithm.And the Black population- even on there- is nowhere to be found to "help" him look less foolish.

But back to Mr. Sena...

The second time I crossed paths in any significant way with Mr. Taniguchi Sena was at a party celebrate Ms. Emmanuelle winning a Championship in another promotion. And what I saw from Mr. Taniguchi Sena was unbecoming of a man with control of himself. And at parties, one instance is fine to ignore, but when you’ve kept tabs on certain individuals and see them uninhibited in multiple instances, when you see them even during contests have to be snapped back into focus multiple times, you have to wonder if in this case if the man is aiming to be another instance of Ben Simmons Syndrome. For that, I cannot and will not force myself to respect Mr. Sena as he’s shown that he does not deserve it. As previously, the manager and business owner in me shows enough respect to everyone beneath him for their efforts, but not this time. And in his case, he needs to go his ass to Kingdom ready to go.

Mr. Taniguchi Sena...
I’m sure with you and Mr. Tyler Kulina having an eventual Tag Team Championship match against us both, you’re starting to feel confident, cocky even. I look at you after all these months, Mr. Sena, and all The Ruler views is disappointment. Since June, The Ruler has won two championships and defended one of them more than most have won matches this year in OWA, and deep down you know- just like I know- that you having to see me right now is not good news, though we could say that you EVER having to see me in the ring is not good news. As The Ruler speaks, you are very much in the red, your worth in the ring has plummeted after looking like it had potential to gradually rise, and your stance as a competitor is one that you allowed to be questionable. And I understand that young men prefer to take advantage of chances to release their inhibitions, but you must question, Mr. Sena: how much of that stimuli must you experience before you see that you are falling off in the one avenue that opened you up to them in the first place? How much more Coach Talk must Ms. Emmanuelle inject into your skull with the hope it sticks long enough for you to be serious?


I will say this, however: as bad as it is that you’re going against The Ruler at the next edition of Kingdom, you are very fortunate that you aren’t facing my partner instead. You see Mr. Raivo would not even give you the benefit of the doubt; he sees you as a part of one of many problems in OWA and that is a lack of focus when it comes to getting it done in the ring. He wouldn’t even give you a chance to explain yourself or show that maybe deeply submerged at the bottom of all those vices you overindulge in, there’s a wrestler that either of us may respect one day. You may assume defeating Mr. Reginald Dampshaw was satisfactory to show your desire to be great, but we don’t believe you; you need more people.

Maybe stomping you the way we did at Kingdom will light that fire and make you try harder. Maybe beating you to the point that you are fueled by anger will force you to strive to be consistent, Mr. Sena. Quite possibly facing a wrestler who once saw potential in you- a wrestler that is currently a Champion- will get you to fully pull your head out of your ass, but I doubt that greatly. You have a manager screaming in your ear like Bob Knight, you now have a Tag Team partner by your side in a profession that rewards selfishness, and time favors you considering your youth. Yet you’re as wishy-washy as it gets on this brand! The greats of this business- such as myself- don’t need an Eric Thomas speech and a fire OST to go out and force the issue; we just GO FOR IT, and we do it our way! Unfortunately for you, Mr. Taniguchi Sena, with the way things have gone, you have little choice but to show up and do something besides look like a belligerent fool who has more chance to throw up on himself than complete a coherent thought nonetheless a coherent wrestling move.

But The Ruler is not going into Kingdom to play the role of your father. The Ruler is strictly your opponent. As disappointed as I am in you overall, as much as Mr. Raivo looks at you as comic relief, Mr. Sena, you can take this one last chance to convince The Ruler why I shouldn’t treat you as a gag that’s run its course. Have at it; sell yourself as to why The Ruler should concern himself with our upcoming contest, Mr. Sena, because you’ve had sold yourself short time and time again. Reach for any and every reason to grow some motivation to try hard against The Ruler to energize yourself, as you have- on too many occasions- fallen flat.
 

And Your Master and Ruler will ensure you don’t profit off his name.

Mav., Darkane, Elijah Hampton, 'Don' Hendrix, Remington Ivory Prescott, Lazarus Arjen and Chad Ecclestone have spoken. It’s such good shit!

Post November 25th 2022, 9:38 am by Big_Baker_Brand
"Legacy.


Funny, how that word works, how it holds us up by the marionette strings and makes us dance until we can dance no fucking longer. How we slave over iron for years and years, burning the oil in our engines down to goddamned nothing with the expectation that one day people will cheer our names, chant for us in arenas, make it all worthwhile. It’s a bit of a sunken cost fallacy in the end, in this line of work-that because we’ve invested so much fucking time into it, any return on it’ll make the whole show worth it. 


We can acknowledge how fucking silly it is to base our whole careers around this, to chase a carrot on a stick that continuously grows further and further away from us-but still, we chase it. I’m unsure why we do, we’re all creatures of habit in the end I suppose, but we do it nonetheless. We hope that when we do catch it, there’ll be some reward, a proverbial pot of gold at the end of the fucking rainbow, something that makes up for all the goddamn struggle. 


Usually, there isn’t. 


Let’s talk about legacies, Darkane. You and I are more closely related than you might think, and for that exact reason when I saw that it was you who won this championship, I had to step up and act. There were many in that bout who were more qualified to hold this title than you, many who’d been waiting their goddamned turn for opportunity back in APEX before Finn got his grubby mits on it and Miles slammed the fucking door shut, but yet, we went with ol’ reliable. Perhaps you did truly earn this-and I can’t deny that you put a hell of a bit of effort in to get to the finish line-but the fact that you were there in the first place spits directly in my goddamn eyes, the legacy that I bled to establish, the championship that I brought into the fucking world. 


The APEX World Championship was built out of a necessity for a new generation of people to step up, and I emphatically made that known loud and fucking clear when I drove Jacob Senn’s skull into the canvas and walked out with that strap on my shoulder. I made that sentiment fact when I drilled Alyssa Grace with a kick that could kill Christ and left her laying, unconscious, with a multitude of championships to her name-but not this one. I showed my true fucking colors, that I was so readily unafraid of anything coming my way, antagonists in any format, when I stepped into Finn’s terrain and damn near tapped the man out. I lost gallons of blood and sweat over that championship, I took the leather and gold that made its body up and I supplanted them with my fucking own. I imbued my soul into that title, and when that company died and that belt became a relic in a warehouse ‘til someone scooped it up and brought it to Olympus-I died with it. 


Now, though? I have a chance to be alive again. 


I’m not going to pretend like this will be an easy fight, Darkane, because I know for the whole of the fucking world it won’t be. I’m well aware of what you’re capable of, the tricks that you pulled out in each and every combat with your rivals during your OHC reign. You are a prolific champion in OWA, your name is synonymous with gold and success, there are rookies across the world who watch your matches and likely want to be you, without all the fucking baggage that comes along with a career that’s stretched as long as yours has. I’ve had to pull out every trick in the book just to keep my grasp on my precious championship here thus far, and I’m not about to stop doing that and give you a chance to catch your breath, because if I do, I’m good as fucking dead. I know that the risk of failure is high, and the risk of bodily harm is higher, and I accept both of those risks. I take on any outcome other than success as an ever-present possibility, because I can’t deny the world that we inhabit. I can’t deny what you had to do to get that reputation, the skulls you had to split open with your shovel, the men that you had to drive into the canvas. 


I am not underestimating you, Darkane. 


I want you to know that, so that when you step into the ring, you know that I’m fully present and aware. I want you to understand that, so when we finally lock up for the first time and you try to haul me over the ropes and hope that I break my neck on the barricade, you know that won’t fucking stop me. I want you to process so deeply in that fucked up, hole-filled brain of yours that I, Darkane, am coming for you with all of the venom and vitriol I can muster, all of the pain in my heart that festered when APEX closed its doors, all of the spirit that I can pull out of the depraved depths of my soul, I am coming for you as the fullest woman that I ever have been, and I am only planning on leaving that ring with the championship around my waist, or in a fucking body bag. You can beat on me, choke me out, slap me around like I’m raw fucking meat, but I will not BACK DOWN. I will not bow my knee to you, hang my head in shame. 


If you expect me to beg for mercy, you will be sorely fucking disappointed. If you expect me to cry out in pain, to submit after a deluge of violence, to let you walk away without having to take that final step toward effacing me from this fucking world and changing the two of us forever, you’re delusional. I’ve learned from the best that any pain I feel is temporary, death is but a fleeting moment of suffering, but the legacy you leave behind, the footprints that won’t wash out of the sand no matter how much time passes…that shit’s permanent. I don’t care if I have to die to get mine, if I have to get buried for people to notice that I fucking meant business, I will fucking do it.  


I am a student of the parts of this whole industry that washed off the slaughterhouse floor and gathered in a drain, manifesting into some fucked up form of sub-life that threatened to crawl back and take exactly what it was owed-chance, opportunity, glory in a way that it was never provided in the past. I came up on the deathmatch scene, under the tutelage of a man who would go on to be one of the most proficient wrestlers of his time before a few too many blows to the head knocked him down to depraved depths I hope never to reach. I sat under the learning tree of someone who taught me everything there was to know about dismantling, disarming, and disemboweling figures like you, Darkane. The man who brought me into this world is one who you helped to bring out of it, your match being but a mark, one of many death knells on the skull of the Guillotine. 


He’s also a man who hung you by your own fucking reputation and ripped the belt that you made legend out of your fucking hands. 


I don’t evoke Graham’s name often, but between this bout and the Promethean Chamber, I have a feeling I’m going to have to sink a few feet into the same muck that he sunk into. I have a feeling I’m going to have to take a breath and dive into the depravity and death that forged men like the two of you, that allows you to seize opportunity in any form, that allows you to take what you are owed even if it isn’t given. I am well aware of this metamorphosis that I’m going to need to undertake to get what’s fucking mine, because I know you’ll cling to this championship with every breath in your lungs, you won’t let it go once you get it back. I’ve got one fucking shot, and if I need to gouge and claw and bite and scratch to get it, I will do just fucking that. 


This belt, this moment, is so important to me. 


It’s a convergence of all of my flaws and failures, the first legacy that I built, the first time the name Liz Karlson was carved into the world without anyone shouting it down. The belt that I lost to a man due to my own hubris, who would let his own hubris get in his own way and cast the strap aside before it could truly become something magical. This belt, which now sits on the crowded trophy shelf of Olympus-she could be so much fucking more, and you aren’t the one to bring it forward. You aren’t the one who has to make up for your own wrongs. You aren’t it, Darkane, and this isn’t yours. 


It’s fucking mine. 


Graham’s teachings may get me through the rougher parts of this match, but I want you to understand with whatever brain cells kick around that shattered skull of yours that I won’t go down like he did, that I won’t crumple under the pressure and let you bury me alive. You’re going to have to drill two through my fucking skull, do you hear me? You’re going to have to take that shovel of yours, rules of combat be damned, and you’re going to have to break it off inside my mouth and stomp my skull until what’s left could never have been considered human. You’re going to have to do more to me than you have to anyone else, because I will not yield, I will not back down, I will not fall into darkness, I WILL NOT LEAVE WITHOUT THAT FUCKING TITLE AROUND MY WAIST UNLESS I’M CARRIED OUT. 





This moment, this match, this opportunity, it’s a chance to right the biggest wrong of my career, to erase the biggest black mark from my record, to give life back to something that was stolen from me with nary and opportunity to correct it. I won’t back down from this challenge, I won’t quiver in the face of your fear, I won’t let you force me out. The chance to fill this hole in my heart is here, it’s present, and I’m not letting it slip away. 


I’m sorry to cut your ascending tour short, Darkane, but it can’t be you. It’s gotta be me. 


I’ve gotta become whole again. 


I’ve gotta make my reputation right.

“When an actor wins an Oscar or when a musician wins a Grammy, they’ll have this heartfelt acceptance speech planned out that’ll either be tugging at your heartstrings with some heavy-hitting sob stories or maybe their words will leave you with goosebumps and a fire being lit under your ass to help push you to achieve a dream of your own one day. I suppose you could say winning a world championship in our line of business is somewhat comparable. Beating out the rest of your peers for the top prized possession and all. All eyes on you, becoming an even bigger threat than you already were. The shoe fits. But here I am now, a few days later to let everything sink in and mentally accept this as my new normal, me as your Immortal Heavyweight Champion — and I still wasn’t able to put together some well-thought-out post-victory speech to rattle off. This is all off the cuff and more importantly, genuine. Something our previous Immortal Heavyweight Champion was not. Because after all, I’m the guy you wanted to dethrone Jacob Senn. A story that was pretty much set in stone from the words of Belial. I was casted as the hero. But I don’t like that term. Never did. And I still haven’t warmed up to it. I’m no hero. I don’t always say or do the right thing. I’ve made my fair share of mistakes. And I’m sure I’ll make some more. Because while this is the IMMORTAL Heavyweight title — I’m still just a human being. I bleed. I sweat. I cry. All of which went into capturing this very title. Leaving it all out there. Sacrificing my body. Even my own life. I was willing to die for this championship. And I almost did. Letting everyone know how far I will go to successfully defend this moving forward. A reign I much look forward to, but one I never guaranteed. Because truthfully speaking, capturing and hoisting a world title above my head while the fans clapped and nodded in approval, for ME of all people — that’s something I’ve dreamt about since I was just a youngin falling madly in love with this sport — but there were times I questioned if that was ever in the cards for me. Not because I doubted myself as a competitor. Not because I don’t view myself as world champion material, but because of facing the deck that was stacked against me on a weekly basis. The uphill battle that left my legs and calves burning and aching. Finding it hard to regain my balance as I was forced to go in circles and circles. Trying to catch my breath at times seemed impossible. But the overwhelming support from the people that have backed me since day one of this process, gave me a big gust of wind that went straight to my lungs. I was determined to cross that finish line, no matter how long it took. No matter how many chair shots I ate or how many lead pipes were swung at my kneecaps — in the end, the vision I had came to fruition.”

“But now — the real work begins. I know that holding this championship puts an enormous target on my back. As soon as I wake up and step out the door, I will be met with dozens of glowing red dots. With attempted kill shots being fired my way every single day I hold this. I have what they want. I know they are out there plotting, scheming, and brainstorming ideas to catch me napping and steal this right from under my nose. It’s not even just the current roster. I know there will be challengers — perhaps from the past, perhaps from other companies, coming out of the woodwork to take a stab at it and try to stand toe-to-toe with me. You can step to me all you want, but in return, I’ll stomp on your neck and I’ll stomp on your hopes and ambitions of becoming the next Immortal World Champ at my expense. The Olympus brand — with how stacked the roster is from top to bottom, I know I will have my work cut out for me. There are no easy matchups, no layups. But this is what I signed up for. A fighting champion! That’s what I will be, that’s how I want to be remembered. So, therefore, I’ll tell you right now, I won’t duck certain opponents. And I certainly won’t be ducking Lazarus Arjen, who just so happens to be my first-ever title defense against at Night of Champions. A clash of styles and personalities — I’m a fan of it. I get the intrigue behind it, especially since there’s a little history there. While Lazarus made a strong first impression in the eyes of KF3 — we didn’t exactly get off on the right foot. And I can’t quite put my finger on it as to why I don’t fuck with the guy? Couldn’t be because he thinks he’s Barry Bonds with his little sidekick, the lead pipe, as he’s swung for the fences with it on various parts of my body. Couldn’t be because he’s tried to and even did, kill perhaps the only person I have left to trust in this industry, Darkane. And it couldn’t be because he was of course a part of Project Smile. Even though he won’t have much to smile about come Night of Champions. But I’ll give credit where it’s due — he’s the one that essentially made this match happen when he took matters into his own hands. When he did what he does best and that’s taking advantage of a situation. Living up to his moniker — a rat. Attacking me from behind, leaving me in a pool of my own blood, it’s his bread and butter. He knows what he’s good at. He knows who he is, what his strengths are, and perhaps more importantly, what his limitations are. A game of survival. He said it. He’s surviving, sure, buuuuut, is he thriving? The jury is still out on that. Time will tell. But I will say, watching his promo, I was a little caught off guard. I had to pause and squint. Asking myself wait, hol' up, who the hell is that? That’s Lazarus? Huh, no shit. Pardon me because I usually don’t get to see his face. Since he normally hides in the shadows. Or I guess sewers because he takes pride in this rat thing for some reason. Hiding behind a weapon so he can even the skill gap. But no longer does he hide behind nor stand under the Project Smile banner. The training wheels are officially off. And we get to see what he’s truly capable of. Is he a vulture? Or is he nothing more than a sitting duck? We shall see. Obviously, he thinks highly of himself. As one should. He claimed Alex Carter was the weak link. That in a sense, Senn was holding him back. He wasn’t the leader he thought he was. And then we can go on and on about his history with Darkane, but the story has been told on numerous occasions. Bad blood and all that jazz. So all these people are the problem. And not him. Interesting. It’s like if you think everyone you run into is an asshole, usually it’s you that is the asshole. But I’m sure you would wear such a badge with honor. “

“You take pride in being a dickhead. That’s fine. You like to get your hands dirty. You cross lines that most are too scared to even stand near. You even color outside such lines. Because you’re different. Or so you say. A misfit. But I feel like the misfits of the world have become the new jock. After all, it’s cool to be unique in our own special ways. But I feel like we are all misfits in a sense, right? Professional wrestlers. That was never the cool career path to announce when you were in the third grade. It was to be an astronaut or a fireman or shit, the fire truck itself. But I wanted to be a professional wrestler. Sure, I played some baseball here and there, so you can use that to fit this narrative that I was Mr. Popular, Prom King, the star quarterback while you were under the bleachers selling god knows what. I put all of my eggs in this one basket. This isn’t some backup plan. I’m not using this to propel a potential acting career like oh I don’t know, Nobi? Mhm yeah that’s right, catch a stray. While you on the other hand, Laz? You’ve caught my attention. And consider my interest piqued. Because even though we are pretty much polar opposites, our careers are a little similar. Before you got here, you felt slighted. No matter how much you did or accomplished, it wasn’t enough. It’s never enough. I wasn’t cutting it either. I was good. But I wasn’t great. To be in OWA, you have to be great. Or at least show great potential. That or have a serious case of blackmail against management, like El Landerson. But when I arrived to OWA, the red carpet wasn’t rolled out for me. I wasn’t touted as the next big thing. No, I was just a tag team guy. I teamed with a guy I didn’t even like — sounds familiar with who you teamed with at Boiling Point, is it not? We’ve also bounced around from groups. But we had to align ourselves with them because it helped us get our foot in the door. I may not look back fondly when it came to my time with the Ashes and The Blacklist, but it helped mold me into the guy that I am today. They were mere stepping stones, though, until I landed on my feet with The Dynasty. I showed just a snippet of what I was capable of back then. And I quickly stood out. There’s a reason why these alliances were willing to bring me in with open arms. Even when I didn’t have a loyal or trustworthy bone in my body. The talent that shined through was worth the gamble, and quite frankly, it did, as they ended up hitting the jackpot. I continue to improve and adapt to the ever-changing landscape of professional wrestling. Going from this so-called pretty boy that would feel woozy just at the sight of blood, to walking away with world-title gold and a face mirroring a crimson mask. A world title — something that could be wrapped around your waist one day. One day. But that one day won’t be this Saturday. And it won’t be this championship. Count on it, but don’t misconstrue my words. I’m well aware that this isn’t going to be some lazy stroll through the park. I won’t walk away from this unscathed. I’ll have battle wounds added to my already existing ones. Because while I might have thrown some harsh words your way in the heat of the moment in the past, contrary to your own personal belief, I don’t just view you as some lackey. Nor have I written you off as a competitor. You’re a credible threat. And when that bell rings, I’ll treat you as such. But in the end, only one will reign supreme. And it has to be me. After everything I went through, after the exhausting efforts by Noah, Aizen and The Dynasty to make sure I had an even playing field to stand on at Boiling Point — just for me to cough up this title a few weeks later — like, that would be kind of a dick move on my part, no? So I kinda plan on not doing that. Hope you’re chill with that. Okay cool.”

Lazarus Arjen
Re: OWA Promos

BOOK OF RATS I:
“Bring Forth the Plague.”


“It had to happen.”

His voice was stern, and echoed. You could barely make out the visuals behind him, the lights were so dim. Cold bricks with lays of dirt, grime and filth caked over the surface; rotting, decaying mortar between the aforementioned bricks also with a layer of film. Lazarus Arjen stood in front of this wall that rounded to an arch above him, almost asif feeding into a circle. Nearby, just barely visible in the camera view, was a ladder. Formerly caution yellow, but the paint chipped away, the ladder itself almost rusted to the point of non-usable. ‘The Depraved’ had the hood of his sweater over his head, his hands stuffed into the front pockets of this old, ratty, moth-eaten article of clothing that he almost always seemed to wear when not in his ring gear.

His eyes, those normally cold - dead - eyes of his, were focused on something, that wasn’t the camera. His facial hair was even more unkempt than normal. His septum ring, long ago torn off by rival and mentor Darkane, had been replaced now that the healing stages had finished.

“Alex Carter was dead weight. Jacob Senn was no god, no devil, nothing more than a mere fucking mortal who was too coward to get his fucking hands dirty. It’s easy for everyone to sit in front of a camera and talk shit about how I - Lazarus fucking Arjen - was a lap dog, or some kind of lackey. But the reality is; I was the one out here doing the dirty work. I was the one constructing, building, and coming up with the schemes that got us all in the fucking headlines while Carter sat on his ass, while Senn polished his stupid little title and narcissistically stared at his own reflection thinking he was safe on the top of Mount Olympus. So what I did at Boiling Point had to happen. Alex Carter needed to learn the hard way that he needed me to ever be relevant. Jacob Senn needed to learn that without me taking out his challengers, without me being there as his Executioner, he would not be sitting on that fucking throne. The union is over. Senn can slink back into the darkness only to return again whenever he decides he wants more accomplishments to pad his resume. Carter can return to developmental where he should have stayed; it’s time for the rats to feast.”

Now we would clue in onto what Lazarus was looking at; other people. None of them were seen by the camera, or referenced by name. In fact, we can’t even tell how many there were. All we see is Lazarus, and Lazarus’ eyes bounce from one ‘rat’ to the next. A devilish smirk began to form over his lips before he continued,

“And feast we will, but no longer on scraps. Now we feast on the decaying corpses that we leave in our wake. Now we feast on the motherfuckers that we put down, like Elijah Hampton. Previously, I would do all of the work - ensuring that he would go down feeling more pain than he ever thought imaginable, and the Vulture’s would come in and pick the bones clean, leaving nothing for me except whatever remnants of blood that pool underneath the naked bones. Now, though; now I have the opportunity to host a feast for my rats. For my legion, and it’s all served from Hampton’s broken, bloody and mutilated body. The broken part has already been accomplished, I’ve taken years off of this man’s career - off of his life - already, and I will finish the job. And, it all starts with him. He is the beginning of the end for OWA. While they sit in their alarm protected houses, shoveling turkey, potatoes and all of this shit into their gullet for Thanksgiving; they know nothing about the death that creeps closer, second by second - minute by fucking minute. Unlike Europe in the Thirteen Hundreds, there will be no later theories about what caused the new death plague that will spread through OWA. There will be no denying it. It will be the rats. The same rats that live in the sewers underneath Hampton’s St.Louis residence, the same rats that live in the sewers underneath every residence, home, and fucking establishment that has anything to do with this festering pile of shit of a company. It’s time that the rats crawl out of the sewers and take control, spreading filth - spreading this from host to host until one by one they all fall. Until one by one they all fucking die in the street, just as they’ve watched men and women like you and me do our entire fucking lives.”

“Elijah Hampton is the perfect example of those people. The ones who skated by life on their looks. The ‘pretty boy’ in school, undoubtedly one of the favorites among his peers, who would encourage the ostracizing of men and women like you and me. The rejects. The dirty, poor kids who came to school wearing the same pants and shirt from days prior. The type of guy that comes into a company and looks down on men like me who have to scratch, claw, and use any means necessary to even be looked at, while he sides - buddy buddy - with the big names. The Darkane’s. The Jacob Senn’s, but has the nerve to criticize me for using Senn to get my foot in the door. Little does he know, it was Senn that sought me out in order to get underneath the skin of the man Hampton probably owes his life to; Darkane. It seems that Elijah and I have that in common. Darkane metaphorically saved his career from mediocrity while he literally saved my life. Elijah, though, is unwise to the ways of Darkane. Darkane eventually left me to die, and will do the same to Elijah when he watches from his perch as I slowly dissect Elijah piece by piece. Elijah’s brother in arms will not save him. While Elijah wears his Dynasty badge on his chest like a proud boy scout, Darkane couldn’t really give a shit at the end of the day; it’s always been about him. Elijah will find that out the hard way, and life will come full circle. Once the man looking down on people like us, will become the rejected.”


His words were laced with venom. Hate dripped from his tone. His eyes still moved from congregant to congregant as he spoke; all of them listening to his words.

“I’ve heard the gospel from Elijah. A nuisance, in his own words. An ingrate, starved for the attention and handouts from Darkane. Elijah knows nothing about the history between Darkane and I, and I can imagine he was sorely disappointed when I left my mentor bleeding out while his body turned cold. If it weren’t for an act of God, Darkane would be just another body on the slab being cut open and prepared for burial. The hypocrisy though, claiming I needed someone’s assistance in my career - while he owes his championship victory to Reigner and Baker, is deafening. I ripped through Europe and Japan, gutting and stabbing everyone in my way in order to make my way here. I needed no one. Everyone followed the blood trail I left, following my footsteps. Elijah Hampton, though, clings onto the Dynasty while blindly pointing and yelling “lackey”. The newborn pup hasn’t developed enough to open his eyes and realize he’s living the exact same thing he criticizes others for. From the beginning, Elijah had his hand held. Roy Bandini, Shea Flaherty, the Ashes of the Wake, the Blacklist, and now the Dynasty. He’s the epitome of everything we’ve been systematically designed to hate; simple minded pretty boy who projects his own character flaws onto others. And now he is now the captain of this Olympus ship that we are subjected to be passengers on. Little does he know, the rats onboard have every intention of killing everyone aboard this ship and letting it sink into the bottom of the ocean. And furthermore, that he will become the first infected.”

He snarled, looking away.

“His knee was the first thing I have taken from him. Crushing it, injuring it severely to the point of barely hanging on. Now I come for his life. I will have Elijah Hampton broken, bloody, mutilated to the point of barely recognizable, and dismembered at my feet; and it’s not for the championship - which I will pry from his dead, lifeless, hands. It’s not because he threw Jacob Senn out of the throne at Boiling Point; I couldn’t care less about that. This is out of survival, as it always has been for me. This is out of necessity. Elijah Hampton serves as our greatest threat, because it’s men like him - the so-called ‘handsome’, the rich, the gawked over baby faces - that plan to rid this industry of the hard nosed real fighters. The one’s that had to fight for their lives every fucking day. This industry attracts men like that; the simple minded who see what is a success in one place and try to replicate it to the point of death. This industry is full of arrogant, cocky narcissists - something Elijah has addressed and claimed to spread awareness of, but fell right back into that cookie cutter mold that he said he wasn’t a part of - and Elijah Hampton being the ‘face’ of this brand is only going to attract more of his kind. What do you think will happen to people like us? We’re the first to go. Cited as being too ‘edgy’ for television, too ‘angry’ to be relatable, too ‘hardcore’ for the casual viewer. That is why I need to make a statement. That is why we must do what we have to do in order to ensure our survival. The bitter, violent demise of everyone else will be what causes us to live on.”

“We bring forth this plague and unleash it upon Olympus, upon OWA, and we will be the last ones standing. We usher in this wave of death, and I will emerge from the smoke, the dust and the debris as the new Immortal Champion. YOUR champion. YOUR leader. YOUR King of Rats. Together, we will sit on top of a throne crafted out of the bones of our fallen enemies. Together, we will devour all of those who oppose us; and it all begins in just a few days' time. From the sewers, I will lead us; and through carnage, through violence, through brutality - we will emerge as the new rulers of this company. Elijah Hampton will just be the first. I will set a precedent of violence in this company; I will bring new meaning to the word horror. The tales of atrocity carried out from this moment forward, will spread through this industry and be a warning to every newcomer what they are in store for once they sign that contract. And those tales all begin at Olympus with Elijah Hampton.”

“Once I am finished with him, Olympus will belong to us.


His lips curled into a devilish grin. The cold, emotionless look in his eyes gave way to hate. His words, though, while menacing to say the least - gave hope to the congregation in front of him.

Hello. 




I’m Emmanuelle, manager of the soon-to-be OWA World Tag Team Champions, the Dojo Bros….Well we haven’t decided on a particular spelling or pronunciation yet for advertising and merchandising purposes, but we’re working on a lot of things. Tyler and Sena have been preparing moves, a new look, all that other stuff to prepare for The Festival! My boys have even snagged their first poster…




OWA Promos - Page 15 Unknow10




Look at that shit! Nevermind that other guy in the middle, just focus on Sena and Tyler! I’m so damn happy and proud of them. For real. I’ve put them through hell to get them ready for this tag team match and considering the team that just won them, they’ve got quite a job on their hands to get those belts around their waists. But right now, my main focus was on making sure that they’re going into The Festival fighting fit and prepared for anything. 




That’s where you come in, Reginald. It seems like everywhere I go, you’re running around being an absolute fucking nutjob. Hell, you’ve been a complete basket case since MY mentor was in his prime, stuffing you into a locker back in New Jersey. My OTHER mentor, April Song, she stuffed you into a locker too if I do remember. And honestly, I don’t even remember if you and I have had a match before. Maybe it’s the concussions. Maybe it’s being too busy with true legends in this sport to actually give a fuck about anything you could possibly try to do. Maybe it’s the fact that you have more hot air coming out of your mouth than a fucking blimp. Maybe it’s the fact that pretty much every time I see you, you’re running your mouth about how tough you are, how dangerous you are, how fucking deranged or ruthless you are…




And you never really do anything, do ya, Reggie? 




Oh, your New Dawn is impressive. Well, about as impressive as a masked group of Doctor Who villains, nerds who have not EVER felt the caress of a woman in their entire lives, and someone who definitely needs to switch to decaf. Tough luck in the whole King of the Mountain thing, right? You were scheming hard to win that match, weren’t you? You were going to become a World Champion and a Time God or whatever your weird ass lore is, I honestly don’t care anymore. 


I’m not fighting you, at least not here and not now, so I probably shouldn’t have all the time to tell you how much you suck to myself. So, with the musical accompaniment of the Human Jukebox (That’s the Southern University Marching Band to all of you dopes who don’t know), here’s Taniguchi Sena to inform you of 1) Just how much you suck and 2) why he’s going to pick up the biggest singles win of his career to date by beating you! 







Hello, Reginald. Do you happen to know what a bluff is in poker? It’s when you make a bet and you know that you probably don’t have the best hand. You’re moving in with force and bravado, even when you don’t have the necessary tools to win. You’re hoping to at worst confuse and at best intimidate your opponent. One of the most famous of these was one by a player named Chris Moneymaker, who made the “Bluff of the Century” against Sam Farha during the World Series of Poker. He went all in with absolutely nothing, forcing Sam to make a judgment call.




Was Moneymaker bluffing? 





Or had the amateur who made it to the final table of the World Series of Power Main event struck gold and was daring to knock him out? 





Sam couldn’t read Moneymaker properly and folded the better hand. Moneymaker claimed the pot of that hand and eventually the tournament, becoming champion, legend and even inspiration for a little gambling nerd such as myself. 




The point of all of this is to let you know that I have plenty of reasons not to fall for a bluff from you. I’ll give you a few just so that you understand how screwed you are: 




Familiarity- All of my mentors have come across you before in their travels and they all seem to beat you. I understand that MY personal experience will differ compared to theirs obviously. I’m certainly not a World Champion like Carlos Rosso was. I don’t have April or even Emmy’s experience. But what I do have is access to all the information they have from battling you. I know just how to attack you and exactly what in my arsenal will work against you. You are very good, great even, but you’re not unbeatable. 




Mentality- You, just like pretty much everyone who goes against me, don’t take me seriously since I’m a rookie and I’m still finding my way. I managed to win a reward in the BOB Games on my first try despite being a rookie, something that enabled me to get the Tag Title shot that the Dojo Bros are going to take full advantage of in Poland. I was dangerously close to making it to the Dark Kingdom tournament finals, only being outlasted by the eventual winner. I stood toe to toe with MASANORI KAWADA, a legend in this sport, during the Clash of the Titans, and came out on the better end. Far too many people look down on me and don’t realize that I’m a damn good wrestler until it’s too late. I’m growing and evolving under Emmanuelle’s tenure and you’ll see a few new things that others haven’t just yet. 




Arrogance- This fits you to a tee. You don’t see me as an opponent worth your time. You don’t feel any need to be serious about this. You have time to sit around in your manor and lick your wounds after your debacle in the King of the Mountain match at Boiling Point. Yes, you have come back and put your name in the conversations of being one of the more important and dangerous figures on Kingdom…but when it comes to being the best? Your bark has always proven far more dangerous than your bite. 




Insurance and Assurance- This is a double whammy for you. I know that your band of merry men will be at ringside with you to try to run interference or expose me to some unsavory “numbers game” tactics. But I have insurance and assurance that your bullshit won’t fly with me. Tyler is going to be there as well. Seeing as I’m his ticket to a title shot and his partner I’m pretty sure he’s not going to let your goons run freely to try to stop me from doing what needs to be done. And Emmy, that thorn in…damn near everyone’s side, is going to be there as well to give me the assurance I need. She has a pretty colorful way of motivating people and her training is a little unorthodox compared to what I’m used to, but there’s no one I would trust more to make sure that I’m doing everything possible to win a match. 




The problem that you face with me isn’t even physical. I’m not quite as skilled on the mat as you and not nearly as big. The problem that you have when it comes to wrestling me, Reginald, is that we know everything about you. EVERYTHING. Hell, I’ve done enough research on you to know what gum you chew when you wrestle. There is not a single detail lost to my preparation and the scary part for you is…..you don’t have the intel you think you do on me! You keep going on and on about me being a young boy, but you haven’t been paying attention to how the Young Boy has evolved. 




You haven’t seen the hard work put in traveling all over the world, wrestling the best that India had to offer, giving my all in Japan, training in 100 degree heat and then in freezing temperatures just to get to this moment. You haven’t seen me from my first real partnership in this business with Tyler, who is a little quiet but very much someone I have a rapport with. You think that people exist on this planet to be subjugated by you. Yeah. Everything is a pawn for you, another piece in your elaborate checker game that you keep losing because you don’t know what the fuck you’re doing. I think that the people around me are there not just to help me grow, but they’re there for me to pay them back for that help with something tangible. For Tyler, it’s that title match that I’ve informed Mr. Oasis that we’re prepared to take on.




For Emmy, for everyone else who has been supporting me…me paying it forward this week will consist of me beating your ass from pillar to post inside that ring. You’re a dangerous man, you’re a tough man. You’re a hard man. You’re even to some degree a very intelligent man. But there’s one massive problem for you and it’s the absolute worst thing you could be for an expert gambler like myself: 




You’re a very, very predictable man.




You will probably be disgusted when you see me standing across the ring from you. You’ll wonder how a skinny kid like me even broke into this business. But when the night is over and you’ve taken an L and suffered one of the most embarrassing defeats of your entire career, you’ll only have yourself to blame. You think that because you have status and an entourage that you’ve somehow evolved to be better than me. I’m going to show you that true evolution comes from hard work, a few friends, a focused mind and a prepared strategy suited just for you. You don’t want to bother wrestling me now? When I’m finished with you, you may not want to wrestle again out of shame. 




Just remember, it’s impossible to bluff a poker player if they already know the cards you’re holding. 




Well damn, a scathing and merciless review. What can I add on to that? Nothing really. Look, Reggie. There’s other places you can go and be the big scary evil mad scientist thingy that you’re trying to do on Kingdom. We don’t need any of that around here. We just need you to get out of the way and take your band of freaks with you. I don’t really have anything else to say to you. But I do have something to say to the band director of the Human Jukebox….


LET THE BAND PLAY NECK!

Alexander von Zarovich sits on the apron of a completely haggard and rundown ring pushed against the back of a concrete wall of what looks to be an abandoned training facility, its paint long eroded away replaced by a coating of what looks to be a defiling rust that seems to stretch all throughout the building. The walls also give us a hint to our location as we see warped and faded photos of Japanese men, dressed in short wrestling trunks and boots, standing next to an older Japanese man in a suit, all proud of themselves.
 
There was a time when I would spend most of my days here, in this very building. But that was a very long time ago, before I knew my purpose. But, I would stand in, or around this exact ring, and I would run through countless drills, over and over again, beaten into me until they were ingrained into my reflexes. Sitting here, I can almost hear the sound of the cane belonging to the vile, old man who we called Sensei ttapping against the floor as he would walk past each of us as we trained. And with that, I am reminded of the dread that we all felt wondering if we were meeting his rigorous demands. I can hear his screaming, and I can feel the anticipation building in my throat, waiting for his punishment… and I can still feel the bitter sting of that cold, petrified wood hitting me across the small of my back. He wanted to break his students, before he could rebuild them in his image.
 
Alexander spoke with a fondness for his time apparently as a student here in this dojo. However, there was also a deep seated bitter spite with his words as he spoke. The Lightbringer would push himself from the apron off onto the floor and shake his head before walking forward. Alexander kneels down and runs his hand across the rundown mat on the floor, the mat where he would have shed his blood and sweat.


It was a cruel practice that was invented by an even crueler man, a practice that saw far too many strong, valiant young men walk into this once hallowed hall, only to leave having their individuality beaten out of them, and both their spirit and their bodies broken. Through The Light’s will, I was fortunate to be able to escape from that indoctrination but in doing so, it cost me any chance of… making it in this country. But that was a price that I was willing to make, and in the end, I have flourished as the Herald of The Light, singing Her song for all to hear. While this place fell to squalor slowly becoming an old, forgotten relic of a bygone age left to corrode and fade away to the Oblivion that awaits all.


Standing up, Alexander simply looks around at his surroundings before speaking again.


But while the story of this place came to its abrupt and much deserved bad ending, I know of a similar story that many in this industry thought had concluded in similar fashion, until recently when out of obscurity its unexpected sequel began to play out. Your story, Odin. You may know of this place Odin, from your own personal travels in this country, I’m not at a position to assume you have… but I am sure that the fate of this decrepit place resonates with a man like you. Much like this dojo, a decade ago you were heralded with great praise here in this country. You were truly a force to be reckoned with in the ring, and your name was one that was to be spoken with respect within the deathmatch scene. But, unfortunate events caused you to fall from that pedestal that you climbed your way ontop off, plummeting into the Darkness never to be seen or heard from again… until recently, when you pulled yourself back to your feet, and you tried to reclaim the legacy you left behind. But time… Time makes fools of us all, doesn’t it. The world passed you by, Odin and the world that you were thrust away succumbed to its End. An End that you refuse to accept.


He snickers with a flash of arrogance.


Your determination is strong, Odin. I commend that. You refuse to let your fire burn out, no matter how dim it may be. So you ventured forth to the United States to try again… but my friend, I must admit, as much as I respect you, and the story you once told, The Light beckoned me to Kingdom for a purpose, and as such, I must act upon her will. Her will demands that I sing Her song of finality. Unfortunately, it means that I have to snuff out your smoldering embers before they ignite once again. However, out of respect for you, I will allow you to burn out in a way that is most befitting a man of your history. I will push you back to your former glory as I give you one last glorious battle, to let you die by your sword before The Light consumes you and sends you towards your Valhalla…

{The camera starts up and shows us the rolling and dipping hills and valleys of Greece-namely that of Sparta, Laconia. With the more modern city sitting in the distant background, the camera is aimed towards the hills surrounding the ancient city itself where we find a solitary figure carrying a large rock up and down the valleys in a pair of black and red Underarmor workout shorts and shirt, with figure being none other than Jacob Striker himself. As the “Cronenberg of Clotheslines” carries the large rock, struggling to keep the heavyweight elevated in his grasp as he walks on the uneven ground with cuts showing the passage of time as he moves from one spot to the next before finally the camera shifts to a shot of Jacob sitting down on an old stone bench with a water bottle dangling from his right hand as he looks out over the old city}


Jacob: You stand there and talk, Noah, while I prepare. You stand there and thump your chest and I simply train. I hear your words and all they do is encourage me to train harder. You speak an awfully big game when in fact I have yet to see you do anything to actually prepare for our match.


Well, nothing other than watch you stand there like the complete and total fucking fool that you are.


You cannot correct me on that front, Noah, because you’re the one who came out here in your first promo and laid down one disrespectful statement at me after another and yet you take fucking umbridge when I lay down my disrespect right back into your face and act like you’ve done nothing to deserve it. 


What I find the most amusing out of all of this, is the fact that you actually believe all of the bullshit that you’re spewing because it seems to me that you want everyone to just wallow around in the misery of their failures and not learn anything from them, you want people to not learn a damn thing and you want them to continue on that downward path of self-destruction rather than use their loses to build themselves up and out of those pits.
I *acknowledge* my losses, but I do not become *defined* by them.


Just like I acknowledge fully that by the time our match is done this weekend, we will be looking at the *new* Omega Wrestling Alliance Outlaw champion…be it myself or Otto Nova mind you, I could honestly care less…and I will be more than content either way as I will have my hands dripping in your blood because by your own line of thinking is that I’m only out for your title alone.


I never saw you as a “stepping stone”, Noah. I saw you as a man that I wanted to fight…a man that I honestly respected the fire of up until you opened your mouth and showed me disrespect after disrespect because you assumed that your title gave you that right because I’m having a simple dry spell here in the OWA, but a lot of people on this roster who know better understand that there is more to me than what you’ve chosen to see…a reality that your poor brain cannot fully grasp because you chose only to hear what you want to hear.


You assumed that I speak the ramblings of a madman, a madman that you can simply dismiss with a mere wave of your hand because you are the Omega Wrestling Alliance Outlaw champion and I am not.


But the point that you seemed to have either missed in its entirety or have chosen to ignore all together is the simple fact that at Kingdom, I’m not coming as the Hunter who has tracked you down over the course of so many weeks like I did to Jenni Drew last year in One Wrestle Movement when I beat her for that company’s World Heavyweight title.


No.


What’s coming for you is the *Bastard* that tore his way through Wrestleworld when everyone had automatically assumed that he wasn’t worth fucking *shit*. You’re going to be dealing with the Jacob Striker who had his heart torn from his fucking chest and then paraded the bleeding, gaping chest wound for weeks like it was the most epic of battle scars worthy of entering Valhalla with because I simply kept going out of pure fucking *RAGE* at the world and I chose to share that oh so lovely gift with the rest of the world!


And you Otto, you can thank Noah for bringing this level of hell straight into your path as well, because just like how I said last time…I wanted our first match to be met like gentlemen…not with fire.


But we are not so different, Otto, you and I. We’re both products of our parents but where your mother became something of a modern day Athena, hunting down her prey across a number of promotions…mine had chosen to become the Hades of professional wrestling during his era. 


Where you’ve seen your mother at her best and worst, just like I have with mine, but unlike our erstwhile other opponent in this match…I actually suspect we’ll be seeing some great things from you and I’m fully expecting you to be at your best violence when you face down my worst intentions, because no matter what that swollen headed prick Noah believes…one of us will be walking out of Athens as the new Outlaw champion.


Perhaps it will be you, Otto, your first championship so soon into your rookie year…striding all the way back to your mother and father with you head held high and your newly won first championship held even higher?


Or perhaps it will be me, adding one more piece of gold to my trophy case…one more memento of a violent dance of war that ended with me ending yet another unworthy bastard’s reign with a title he was not yet ready to hold?


{For the first time in a long time, Jake’s face breaks out into that sick and twisted wolfish smile as he takes a swig of water from the bottle}


Jacob: Spoiler Warning here, kiddos…it won’t be Noah who comes out of this with his head held high….he’ll just have to be *content* with learning that “Chicago’s Finest” isn’t as fine as he thought he was.


Perhaps after you’ve had your fucking head stomped *through* the fucking ring at Kingdom, you might understand that maybe…just *maybe*...pissing me off wasn’t the best thing for you to do because all that pissing me off does for you is sharpen my focus and give me even more of a reason to focus solely on your sorry ass and nothing more because yes, I will be the next OWA Outlaw champion and yes, it will be at *your* expense, but only because you chose this path, Noah.


I know where my path ends, Noah. I know what my future brings me and I’m content with that because it brings me two things that I am actively seeking, you sorry son of a bitch.


The Outlaw Championship.


And your blood on my hands.


Everything else in the future will come in due time because I am constantly evolving, constantly improving myself, and very soon I will enjoy the fruits of my labors long after you’re left in a broken heap somewhere, begging for a second chance at anything really.


And as for your little comment about your being ready for fucking warfare, well then I guess we’ll see just how ready you are when we get to that bridge, now won’t we?


{The grin gets even bigger at that point}


Jacob: Oh wait, I wouldn’t even let you get *that* far. 


Get ready for fucking war, Noah. 


Mind your head.


{Jake drains his water and then picks up the large weight once more as the screen fades to black}

Re: OWA Promos
Post November 18th 2022, 11:38 pm by Theodor Pavel
First it was Cyprus, then it was Greece. OWA had given the roster this incredible chance to tour the world this season. While the trip to South Korea was nice, it was experiencing the Greek culture that really captivated Theodor Pavel. After seeing just some of the sights, Santorini was the place he was going to call home for the night. Anya was put to bed, Misaki was out with Greece native and SWWS Interviewer Pazia. Theodor had a rare chance to reflect on the things he saw, relaxing in the Grand Villa of the Abyss. The young Romanian had found himself heading into Kingdom with the title shot ready to go, but he was going to be facing a very game Jason Long. Never an easy task, but the goal was set. Things had to be done, he had to find a way to defeat Long in order to prove that he belonged in the main event scene.

Chances were pretty decent, he felt. Something was getting under his skin though. That common belief in OWA was that Theodor Pavel was an up and comer. It was good in 2020. Not now. While he sat outside of the villa with a long gaze at the pristine architecture of his surroundings, Pavel had a chance to speak up.

“I don’t think a lot of people believe in me. Do you remember that first night I was here? Everybody came to me after my match and said that I was destined to become one of the bigger stars in this company. People I never met, people I vaguely knew, were in awe. How could somebody in their first professional wrestling match be able to hold their own against Hall of Fame worthy wrestlers? For the first year, it was that constant. All the time, people kept saying it. Then.. They kind of went quiet. I found myself taking a back seat to just about everybody who was signed to OWA. Jason, I know how you feel when it comes to things like that. You want it all, that’s where we’re different.

You want to dominate the world of professional wrestling. You’ve gone to every company there is. You’ve won titles in nearly every one of them. You’ve established yourself as one of the guys who will be a legend, yet it’s never enough. You’ve been Champion here, you had the chance in the King of the Mountain. In fact, you did wonderful in that match. Those are heavy goals you have. Mine are pretty simple, my expectations are even more simple.


I never asked to be the face of the company. You know why? There is a roster of people who have been doing this for a very long time. Major league veterans who have taught me just about everything there is to know about professional wrestling, I never saw myself as the guy who would be the full time professional wrestler and dominate. I saw myself as the guy who would learn the craft, develop as a good wrestler and eventually become the World Heavyweight Champion. To do that, I had to actually be in big matches consistently. I’ve had, what, five matches this year? I don’t even think it’s that many. It was a lot of waiting. Instead of becoming a top contender, I was in wars. Like you, I was in those, yet there were no days off for you. You kept getting those chances to fight against the top people. What did you do at Final Destination? Were you wrestling or were you in a game show? I was in a game show. While winning that, it guaranteed me a chance to face Bishop at the Festival, I felt lost in the shuffle. I felt like I was already forgotten.”

It was admitted to be one of the most depressing years of Theodor’s life. His career was already floundering just two years in. He watched his mentor and friend Michael Bishop die right in front of him. He was pulled away from his family to go to war twice in the last year. If he knew this was the trajectory he was going to take, maybe professional wrestling wasn’t for him. Now, he was having matches again. A big win over Jacob Striker on Kingdom. Defeating Chad Ecclestone at Boiling Point. He got to team with his wife, who clearly wasn’t in the mood for the match, but it was a special moment for him to team with her not once, but twice this year. Now a chance to face someone like Jason Long, it was important to him. That feeling didn’t seem like it was mutual, though.

“We’ve never really gotten to know each other, have we? I’ve considered you a friend, but honestly I don’t even know you that well. Not well enough to put a title on that thing, but maybe that’s why it’s so important that we do face off. You have a wealth of knowledge in the business and I can’t think of anybody better to face before I go against the World Heavyweight Champion. Possibly the best World Champion this company has ever seen. We don’t know for sure, but he’s taken on all comers and had soundly defeated them. What did you learn from facing Bishop? I’m sure it wasn’t much because you’ve probably fought him several times.

There were a couple things you said about me that really got under my skin. First off, my friends aren’t random. They didn’t just show up out of thin air, they worked hard to get where they are, so I appreciate them. To me, they are the furthest thing from random. Secondly, you brought up how I defeated Bishop in a Bloodsport match at Final Destination. You said that I would never be able to defeat the man in the ring. Let me correct you on that. I did defeat Bishop before that on an episode of Kingdom. He was caught off guard from that, but at the same time, that Michael Bishop isn’t this Michael Bishop. I got two on him, but I see the reality behind it and that is a determined Dreadknight is one that is hellbent on getting a win over me. He’s a competitive man, just like you.

Let’s not make it about him though, with all due respect to him. Let’s make this match about us. Time to face it, you and I are very similar in where we stand. We want momentum. We want the same opportunities that certain wrestlers in this company have been HANDED for years. They could lose every match for three years straight and still find a way to be in World Title matches for half those matches. We’re not them. The line was long enough, and we’re close enough to finally get there. A win at Kingdom solidifies that opportunity for us, right? Mine is in stone, but yours.. You beat me, you’re right in the hunt. I beat you, I finally get to be in the hunt that didn’t get earned through a game show. There’s a lot on the line in this match. I’m not going to let the past haunt me any longer. I’m not taking those negative feelings, hoping to God that I can vanquish them one day, I’m taking them out of my mind NOW.

How do I do that? By getting in the ring with the best competition on the damn planet. That’s how. By getting into the ring with a guy that right now is waiting for a chance to pass me. Good, try to. I would do the exact same thing to you. That’s competition. Let’s compete. We don’t need to make it personal and have bitter feelings about each other, I respect you. I think, right now, you’re the guy that could take that title. I think I can too, though. You have all these amazing moves that you use, you have been all over the world to face the best competition there is.

I don’t need fifty variations of a suplex. Not for me. I don’t proclaim to be the technical wizard by naming one hundred submission moves, not for me. My emphasis isn’t on numbers, it’s on impact. If I hit someone, they will be hurt. If I put someone in any kind of submission, I will wrench on that hold so tight that they may tap out to a side headlock. It’s not complex, it’s simple. The kicks get the job done, the elbows take out teeth. Weird how that works. It just does. Now we get to find out how much it works against you.

Now, let’s just say this. I don’t have any intention of ripping your arm out of your socket, or knocking out several teeth. I just want to win the match. I want the prove the world that I actually can do this on the level that’s being presented. You’ve main evented places all over the world. You’ve been in more title matches than I’ve been in matches. You’ve done all that and you’ve done it in a relatively short amount of time. Why can’t I get there too? I should have a chance, right? Unless you are an established star that people know, you don’t get chances like this very often. For me, it’s not something, it’s everything. It’s the biggest thing that I can strive for in this industry. Don’t take it personal that I want it as bad as you do. I have more on the line in this match than you think. That may surprise you.

A loss here puts me in a spot where MORE people are going to be for Bishop defeating me. It’ll be the way it was every single time I’ve been in there with stars. They’ve always painted me as the underdog, and I’m tired of being the underdog because I’m not. The resume should speak for something even if it isn’t as vast as yours. We both have a lot to win and lose in this one. You get the win, I’ll be upset. I’ll shake your hand, but I will be very upset with the loss. You lose that match, I move on with the momentum I need to prove something to the world.


To finally silence the critics who watched me lose to Havoc and Asakura in matches I felt I was able to win. I could have won, in my view. It didn’t happen. I can’t go off what I feel anymore. I have to go off of what I’m willing to do..”

As he rose to his feet after sitting for so long, Theodor walked around the villa, seeing his wife walking in from below him. She looked up at him, giving a smile as if she had the best time of her life being in Greece today. It was lovely, to say the least.

“You know I can’t take it easy anymore. There’s too much on the line now. Another mouth to feed, another on the.. Well, I have to be better. They are selfish reasons, but reasons that I carry close to my heart. I have to defeat you, Jason. I have to put away the critics and finally shut everybody up. I’m not just the guy who’s trying to build a family.. I’m the guy who wants to become the best professional wrestler in this damn company. I can’t wait any longer.

So, to that.. I wish you luck. I wish you the best of luck anyone could ask. Why? Because I know in the bottom of my heart, and you know in the bottom of yours… You’re gonna need it.”

His words had gone from crisp, calming cadence down to a growl. The mind of Theodor was made up, he had nowhere else to go but to prove he was willing to take any chance and knock over any walls in order to win this.

OWA Promos - Page 15 MOSHED-2022-5-13-16-42-17

| CLOSURE; PART TWO. | KINGDOM. | #002. |


There was a lot to walk himself through.

For the past couple of weeks after Boiling Point has come and gone, he’s been contemplating everything he’s done to get to this moment, losing the one and only chance he had to become World Champion has become the moment that haunts him to this day. The one shot that he’s had and he blew it all away and for what– to be stuck fighting against the next challenger? The thought ran through his head, ‘what was next to prove for himself’, and ideally? There wasn’t anything else for him to accomplish. There just wasn’t anything else to prove.

He had done everything needed to make it to the next level, to make it to the higher ranking of where he left off with the Spartan Championship and yet, he couldn’t keep himself standing long enough. He couldn’t find himself in the right position to become the champion just yet.

“I’m not sure how to help you much more than what I already have,” said the psychiatrist. They watched Long sit right in front of them, their legs shaking up and down as he seemed to have been extremely uncomfortable with how he’s feeling right now. “I’ve never had someone become so addicted to their profession quite like this, I’m not even sure how to describe it—but I think you need the time away, just to clear your mind. Let things be at peace with yourself –”

Long couldn’t believe what he was hearing, a fit of rage overcame him and he sprung right back up to his feet, grabbing the psychiatrist by the collar and aggressively shaking him. He couldn’t believe what he was hearing, expecting him to take a break from his profession, expecting him to back away when he was this close to becoming OWA World Championship. Not after earlier this year, not after everything he went through, not after all of the fighting he had to do to get back to where he is right now.

There’s no more of the denying, there’s no more of the laughing stock, there’s no more of the man who did his best—there’s only hunger, a thirst for blood unlike anyone has ever done unto others, and the path to closure becomes a path to glory. However, in the heat of finding himself in a train of thought, he wasn’t aware of the fact that he still held onto the collar of the psychiatrist. “Jason, can you please just let go of me!”

He finally let go of the psychiatrist, a deep sigh, and now walks out of the room. Disappointed in himself, disappointed in what he was becoming, embarrassed in what he’s done to himself, a sick thought that makes him become silent. Not a word even spoken to himself, except for three whole words that he said as he looked at himself in the mirror inside of the hallway.

“Who am I?”


The softened heart of one man doesn’t define my feelings towards them.

I’ve never been the kind of man who’d take pity on someone’s feelings towards my own words, I’ve never ever taken my words and apologised for the things that I’ve said, because what I’ve said in the past all have meaning to them. What I’ve said in the now has had meaning to it. If someone cannot understand the raw emotion that runs through a man after taking the biggest hit of their time, if someone doesn’t understand the sheer pain that rushes through a man when they’ve had a chance to shine and they fucked it up — then what’s the point of you even speaking to me, trying to iterate your own emotions, acting as if I’m the villain of this story and acting as if I am the bad guy around here. It seems a lot like someone playing the victim card, acting as innocent as they come, but there’s no innocence, there’s never any kind of innocence in anyone—no matter who they are.

Listen to me here, Theo. Let’s not begin to act as if you know me better than I know myself, speaking as if you’re talking on my own behalf, wondering if you can understand me more than I can understand myself. This is not the time and the place to be doing this at all, you should know that better than anyone else. If you were smarter than this, which I know you can be, you wouldn’t be acting as if you know the ins and outs of what makes me work. To act as if I can never be broken, then you have not seen me throughout the past year. To act as if you know I work harder when I come back from losses like these, then you have not been aware of the many times I’ve been put down and lost all momentum going for me.

Last year, exactly twelve months ago, I crumbled and lost the biggest prize I had back then—when I tried, time and time again, to come back stronger and come back as hard as I did as that champion? I couldn’t find the footing needed, I couldn’t regain the same momentum that I once had, I couldn’t do all of these things. You know why that is, Theo?

Because I’m not the man you think that I am.

Is this what you think of me as, Theo? The same man who did their best to keep being ‘friends’ with yourself but never saw eye to eye with you, did their best to maintain some kind of friendship because everyone else was being buddies with you, trying to protect you as if you’re some golden child? Is that what you really think of me as being? It’s simple, there’s never been respect—it’s all been there because everyone else has done it. I never respected you from the moment you came along and was handed everything, thrown to the wolves like you’re this big prodigy project, and like said before? You’ve tried, you’ve failed, and then repeat.

For someone that’s been fighting throughout the past three years and gotten nowhere near the same level of respect as you have, what makes you believe that the thing that I’m doing now is wrong, to a degree? What makes you believe that treating you like actual shit is the wrong thing to do? Have you really bought into the whole “I thought you respected me, I thought we were friends” and thinking that you’re different than anyone else? Is that really how gullible you’ve become? Then again, what do I expect from a man who claims their whole career is based on themselves being the ‘happy-go–lucky kid’ and yet, all you’ve got under your belt is knocking out Bishop and marrying someone at the age of nineteen.

Sure, I didn’t do that at nineteen. Hell, I didn’t even really begin wrestling until I was nineteen. However, you’ve made that shit into your whole personality, you’ve created your own aura to be based on the fact that you’re young, you’re so lucky with your life, and you’ve got good things going on for you. Let me tell you exactly how someone feels about it.

...

Hear that silence? Fucking deafening, isn’t it?

You’ve shown the same kind of entertainment value as paint drying, you’ve shown the same excitement level as Muhammad Ali in his later days, barely able to speak a fucking word and just twitching to really get by with life to communicate. Like how you’ve been with me, it’s been nothing but a response as if you’ve got nothing to speak to me about—it’s a lot of talking coming out of the young prodigy but it’s also a lot of nothing coming out at the same time. Throw in a few key words in there, talk about your wife and your child, tell people how happy you are and just how great your life really is and there is the very same formula of each and every vignette that you produce week after week. It’s the same shit, time after time again, and the constant borefest that you bring to the table is just dreadful.

But you know what? Let’s get to one thing you said. You’re right, I never answered the phone to you because I never really liked you that much to speak with you on a personal level. You base your life around the others who are far more successful than you are and you try to bring things into a full circle but the problem is that you become lost trying to find the end of that circle. You follow the footsteps of Mike, you become lost. You follow in the footsteps of Chris, you become lost. You follow in the footsteps of Jeff, you become lost. The same story, the same bullshit, over and over again. You’re a constant loop going around and around, and yet, you cannot help yourself to put you back on the line.

You get a shot at the big one, you lose. You get a shot at the big one, you lose. You get a shot at the big one, hoping that the third time is really the charm, and who knows — I’m sure someone like Michael Bishop isn’t going to put you down easy when it comes to his championship, but I’m also sure that he’s not going to take bullshit from someone like you. If he’s smart, he’d know I’m the one in the right here. If he’s well able to see, he’d know this is an easy fight for himself and I on these two separate occasions.

If we all need help, where the fuck is everyone when I want it? Is it because I push myself away too much? Is it because people are worried that I cannot be saved? Do I fucking scare people enough for them to keep away from me? You begin to act as if the help from others is what pushes us further—but I’ve never had anyone cover my back, I’ve never ever had anyone watch over me as they lend me a hand back up onto my feet. The only time, the only fucking time, was when Kenny gave me that contract for the World Championship. So what is it, Theo? Tell me, since you’re so fucking smart and you know everything about me and what I need.

That’s it, right there, you keep silent.

You know absolutely fucking NOTHING about me.

Keep playing the pretending game like you’re some infant toddler, I’m sure playing fancy dress up and playing ‘mommy and daddy’ with Misaki and Anya is what really motivates your whole life—just know that there’s a whole world out there that’s just waiting for someone like you to step out and be met with the awakening you deserve. I’m not going to tell you to grow up, or mature yourself, or whatever anyone else has said to you. You’ve done enough of the growing up stage, we’re past the honeymoon stage where we act as if you’re something good for the future, because it’s time to show you how things are done.

You want to become ready for that World Championship match? You’re in luck, I’ll play the game with you — we’ll treat this as if it is for the World Championship, you can show me all of the skills, kicks, and whatever you’ve got to help yourself win. But the moment that you allow me to gain control? The game’s over, and it’ll leave a permanent mark on what you’re about to become.

For once in your life? No more of the ‘happy-go-lucky kid’ shit. You’re about to become a man.

And you’re going to be treated like one.

Jeff X, Theodor Pavel and 'Don' Hendrix have spoken. It’s such good shit!

MAN OF THE RISING SUN - ODIN, vs. AVZ.
Post November 18th 2022, 11:13 pm by Big_Baker_Brand
“Right. 

What an introduction to a place like this-two men of the land of the Rising Sun going to war in a debut contest that would be main eventing anywhere-fucking-else, but is relegated to a side contest here. AVZ, you and I both have some shared history, eh? We both cut our teeth ‘cross the land in Japan, damn near killed ourselves to get what we got, and we were expected to not be upset about it when we got sent packing. It’s enough to have done it, but not enough to cure that biting feeling of rejection. 

Honor don’t mean shit when it comes to Gaijin like us.

I won’t claim to be holier-than-thou because the circumstances behind my leaving of Japan were a bit cleaner than yours, but I know that rejection hurts like a motherfucker, even when you think you might have a bit of a solid point on the road to getting there. You fucked up, friend, in ways that I’m not even entirely certain that I comprehend, but that doesn’t mean you’re guilty. It doesn’t make you a bad man. Moments and actions might fuck you up, but they don’t make the man entirely-it’s what you do after that does. 

And what you’ve done after…it’s interesting, to say the least.

You’re a man of personality, so thick and lofty in the air that you’ve got a cult surrounding you. You spin words in ways that my dipshit CTE tongue can’t get around. You’re a real compelling dude for people who got nothing better to do than listen to some longhair wax poetic about the world and how sinful she is, and I can respect that. I can understand a gift of the gab coming in handy when you’ve gotta build something out of nothing. I can fuck with the vision you’ve put out there, the people you’ve bought onto your plan…but personally, you won’t be able to sell this shit to me. 

I’m a thick-skull, after all.

When we step into the ring in this world beater of a contest, let’s have no pretenses that I’m gonna be a fucking gentleman about it. If I had my way, these words would be short, sweet window dressing to the backdrop of me cracking your skull open and drinking the sweet nectar out of it, while you attempted to do the fucking same to me. I advise you heavy to leave the flowery bullshit at home, and remember who you were overseas, the man from Japan with the lariat from Hell that could kill Gods if it made contact. I advise you to think of me like that trainer you torched-someone to batter the fuck out of to get some anger out. I advise you to come at me with all you’ve got, come to kill, because I’m gonna do the fucking same.

Murder Daddy’s gotta live up to the namesake, after all, and I’ll gladly take some other Gaijin Legend as my first big game hunt between these walls. Lemme end your shit, warrior, and send you where you belong.

To Valhalla.

KINGDOM— PROMO #2 | POSSESSION ACQUIRED, NOT REPLACED.


It’s been a long, emotional ride to reach this moment — and I fully embrace those feelings.

For a majority of my time upon this planet thus far, those that have decided to surround me, they’ve simply tried their hardest to break the individual that they believed was crafted by their own hands, but not who I desired to be in the slightest. Believe it or not, while their efforts were of a continuous nature, being able to realize that they didn’t have any ability to proclaim that my life would be led down a specific direction — which is the most important lesson that can be learned not only within this industry, but in life as well. Don’t get me wrong, if I were to have carried myself in a similar nature in this current time period, there simply wouldn’t be any possibility of me standing here today, living out a dream that most would claim is only that — but since learning it in a difficult manner, I’ve been taught to not allow others to have the power to live out your life, and I’ve embraced this ideology. Instead of allowing others to break me out of pure spite of the past, I’ve managed to embrace this is my life to live, and while their efforts haven’t gone unnoticed, they don’t have any effect any longer.

But for most, they feel as if there’s no other choice.

If I’m being honest for a moment, this couldn’t be further from the truth, their aspirations are a distant dream that couldn’t be reached, no matter the path they had chosen to take in the first place. I’ve seen it countless times within my journey to reach this kind of platform, but it’s quite important to understand why their failures came to be. With their dreams floating into a realm far beyond the human touch, their wishes soon turned out to be nothing short of a magic tale, and no matter how much they attempt to convince us that they deserve to be at the centerpiece of the chapter in question, they simply remain to be anything but what they’ve claimed to be for the entire time. In what feels like yesterday, I felt as if I stood alone in a world filled with fear, in a constant state of anxiety, seemingly waiting for the next plot twist to occur — but no longer am I afraid, and nor should I be. In being able to understand your past, you soon realize that those specific feelings have a way of following you into the future, and we’ve finally reached this point in time. Similar to so many others in my lifetime, those individuals who believe that they’re path to their own crafted destiny is deserved, they never seem to grow extinct in the slightest — and Otto? You’re a perfect example of this, and I think you’re fully aware of this.

Since the day I was introduced to this world, I’ve never felt a sense of pleasure in having anything handed to me, the desire only came to me in a natural sense when my own ambitions were found to be successful by me — and that’s how everyone should operate in this world. However, it almost seems as if you never felt the need to attempt to travel down your own road, and without the simple act of striving to pave a road to your own success, you aren’t any different from the rest, and it doesn’t seem like this bothers you in the slightest. It’s a tale as old as time, you were born into a ray of sunshine, the success that beamed upon you was only acquired due to your own mother’s achievements, and the sacrifices that she decided to take on her own. Whether you’d like to admit it or not, without any of this at your disposal, you wouldn’t have this opportunity awaiting for you — and that’s how it should be.

There’s people like myself, who didn’t have the luxuries that you found the moment you saw the light, and had no other choice but to take any opportunity they were given. While you clearly can’t relate, there are people in this world, such as myself, who aren’t entirely aware of when their next chance at their desired success could come — and that’s why this industry means so much to me. Before being introduced to professional wrestling, my life was seemingly wasted on the unfortunate feeling of the unknown, and I’m not willing to find myself in this situation once more, when this time — there’s a choice. There was a point in my life when my next breath wasn’t a given, so when I step into the squared circle, each time I’m able to — it’s nothing short of a blessing, one that I pride myself I’ll do until my last dying breath.  Since the moment I had the privilege of placing the OWA Outlaw Championship across my waist, I knew there wasn’t a damn chance that I’d let it go, and ahead of my first defense — this mindset hasn’t faded, not for a single second. It’s simple, you haven’t felt the destructive feeling that comes with impending failure, and due to this, success isn’t something that can be appreciated. I’m fixated on representing this possession that I hold so dearly, one that has come with sacrifices that you couldn’t possibly imagine, and that’s the entire problem.

Success has come quite easy to you, tears of joy have never meant anything to you.

However, for me? Before you is a man who prides himself on being the best version of himself on any given day, who takes pride on reaching this position, solely based on his own sacrifices within the sport, and nobody can take that away from me. My concerns, my attention, they’re both purely focused on proving that I’ve learned from my past, that Chicago had changed me for the better, and I hadn’t regressed into something similar to the individuals that I’ve attempted to escape for years. There’s never been a chapter already written for me, and if there was, I’d desire for it to be erased — because if there’s nothing to prove in this life, then it’s not one worth living. You can fill yourself with all of the confidence that’s physically possible, all that you can muster even, but this weekend is finally the moment where we witness if your attempts are truly for you or not. And if they are, I’ll openly state that my opinion of you has changed, but my statement still remains the same. I now represent this championship, and with the overall duty of carrying its lineage upon my shoulders, I can’t fail — the amount of passion I feel for it is irreplaceable.

Nonetheless, you aren’t the only individual I must keep my eye on — as my road to keeping this legacy alive lies at my feet, against two individuals who see me as a stepping stone.

Let’s settle one thing straight away, I’m not blind, I can see why you desire to take this for yourself, it should be obvious, right? Y’see, as much as you’d like to continuously claim that the idea of contentment doesn’t reside in you, it proceeds to look doubtful for you, Jacob Striker. Like I’ve said plenty of times before, even directly to you, if I didn’t feel a sense of failure in my life — I simply couldn’t be classified as a human being, we all have felt it. However, if you truly believe that my recent claims can be described as a form of ignorance, then you’re sorely mistaken. In this industry, repetitive failures are a clear sign of changes being needed for the near future, but instead of noticing this to be the truth, you’ve felt as if denial was the most beneficial option. The advice that you were given at a young age, it simply doesn’t apply here, as in this sport — there isn’t an inkling of hesitation from others. For years, I dealt with losses that rightfully should’ve broken any individual, and for a portion of time it certainly did. However, the ideology surrounding taking each loss with every success isn’t valid at all, especially when most that you encounter in this competitive industry wouldn’t blink twice to take advantage of these ordinary vulnerabilities. And while I can’t be compared to the rest, and I wouldn’t dream of being like them, it’s important to remember that I too, found myself in your shoes a matter of years ago. Before being able to find myself in OWA, there wasn’t a night where I felt a change was being made in the world due to me, instead, I felt stuck in a moment of despair, almost as if I seemingly couldn’t move an inch. Nonetheless, whether you believe it or not, I’m not dull in this thinking, and I don’t speak out of ignorance, but rather certified experience.

When others are too focused on the past, they become blind to the future.

I’ll be honest with you, I won’t pretend that your career hasn’t come with accomplishments that many are still currently striving for, me included — but there’s still a distinct difference between the two of us. While you have upheld the belief that creating success is enough to carry yourself into the future, maybe you’re the one that needs to look in the mirror. Ahead of our destined meeting, you’ve repeatedly stated that my own experiences are built off of both ignorance and arrogance — but coasting into the next stage of your career has to be classified as both, doesn’t it? While you might’ve been able to successfully climb the mountain before, I can promise you that this won’t secure you the ability to take this away from me. This championship means more to me than you could possibly imagine, simply looking at it when I awaken each and every day gives me the motivation that I need to push forward — and if it slipped through my fingers, and transitioned over to your waist, everything that I’ve attempted to build would be for NOTHING! I’m not willing to allow the ‘big’ time, the ‘big’ fight, the ‘big’ feel to hold myself back, I’ve simply come too far to drown now, I’m the individual in every story that survives no matter what obstacles attempt to abrupt the success that he’s currently looking for. However, I’m not just going to survive, I’m going to endure, and more importantly, I’ll outlast all those who think differently. I didn’t come this far to be disrespected.

The worst part about this is you truly believe each and every claim that comes from your lips, when I’ve proven the contrary to be the truth time and time again. Y’see, all of these idle threats you seem quite comfortable issuing out towards me, they simply aren’t making the impact you’ve originally intended for them to have — and allow me to explain exactly why. For a majority of those who find themselves being hunted, especially in this business, they aren’t aware that this is the case until it’s too late — but that’s not the case here, now is it? You’ve made it perfectly clear that you’re coming after me, and the undeniable desire that you currently have — it’s for everything I’ve worked so hard to achieve. With this being said, I want you to listen to me carefully, if you’d like to hunt me down, I won’t tell you not to, but prepare to be met eye-to-eye with a man who’s only desperation is for keeping the one possession you currently are after. So as I’ve said, feel free to come directly for me, but be prepared to enter nothing less than a bloody warfare, because as soon as you attempt to endanger what I’ve spent the last half a decade looking to achieve — you’ve given me no other choice but to put those dreams to bed.

I’m fuckin’ ready…

DT The Ruler has spoken. It’s such good shit!

Self-Interrogation 






OWA Promos - Page 15 360_F_354494891_EeLtXnVdpFMLnedJqMniZl6QPZT6SAYX




It’s a cold, dimly lit room that April finds herself sitting in. Dressed in black boots, black jeans, a black shirt and black leather jacket, she is unsure why she’s sitting there alone. Had she fallen asleep and been brought there? Was she drugged? Either way, she was alone, collecting her thoughts until another person entered. And the person entering the room was quite a shock to the former Airman. Wearing a red and black dress, black heels with immaculate hair and makeup…it was…herself? She was holding a manilla folder, tossing it nonchalantly on the desk where April was seated. 




OWA Promos - Page 15 U9Qp3WJ



“What the hell is this?” 


“What do you think this is, sweetheart? It’s about time that you and I have a heart to heart and figure out what we’re going to do going forward.” 


“WE?” 


The April in Red chuckled before holding up a small mirror, letting April see that she was in fact herself and not losing her mind. At least not yet anyway. 



“We are pretty much the same, even though I obviously have better makeup, skincare routines and hair.” 


“I’m going to ask again…exactly what the hell is this?” 



“Well, you’re not one for beating around the bush are you? I’m a part of you. A manifestation of all the things that you’ve been interalizing throughout your life that you’ve never really dealt with. Part of your subconscious mind, you could say.” 


“Meaning what exactly?” 


“Well, honestly I exist because you can’t cope with all your own bullshit. Remember when you used to sleep around when you were a drunk after your time in the military? Me. When you couldn’t cope with the passing of your parents? Me. All those guilty feelings from your time as a military contract? Yup, yours truly.” 


“....So you’re the angel on my shoulder who’s gonna tell me what I need to do to make everything better, right?” 


“Not exactly.” 


The April in Red opened the folder, pulling out some pictures. All of them are of recent events in April’s career:


Hana turned on April and attacked her unprovoked.


Rebecca Filth holding the title while a disappointed April can only watch, merely a second away from retaining her championship before that. 


The Banshee screaming as April struggled to get to her feet after a loss.


Jeff X holding an apparently dead Chris Sabertooth, not long after Hana and Havoc unleashed their powers on him.


“You need to make a decision. WE need to make a decision. Why are you still wrestling? Why are you still in OWA? You don’t believe that there is a way back for Hana. You don’t believe that your skills, as they are, are good enough to become OWA’s Undisputed World Champion again. So…are you competing to die in the ring or are you competing because you get some perverse joy out of potentially pissing in someone else’s cornflakes, hurting them physically and emotionally?” 


“I don’t know….” 


“Sure you do. You said publicly that you HATED the idea that you were tossed into the Athena’s Cup tournament. But you were desperate to win it. You were going to hold the Cup like the Sword of Damocles over everyone’s head until you got what you wanted.” 


“.....Yes I was.” 


“Now we’re getting somewhere! So, I think what we need to do here is just be completely honest about our wants from here on out, sweetheart. I want you to be happy. I want you to be able to wake up, look yourself in the mirror and be proud. All this self-doubting, self-loathing, conflicting message thing isn’t you. You have a match for a spot in the Promethean Chamber coming up don’t you?” 


“I do. And everyone that I still hold a grudge over could be involved. I’m tired. My body’s beaten up, my spirt’s broken and I’d rather fucking retire…but I want to keep going just to see if I can last long enough to throw it back in all those fucking faces of the people who think that I’m washed up. I want to fucking rain on their parade.” 


“THERE WE GO! THAT’S THE OLD BITCH WE KNOW AND LOVE! So now, you’re wrestling NAMI right. You’re actually pretty fond of her….you’re not planning on going easy on her, right?” 


The April in Black smiled. Not a friendly, warm smile but a profoundly dark, predatory smile. 


“Why would I do that? Even if I do appreciate the girl’s talent, when’s the last time I’ve gone easy on anyone when something I want is at the end of the tunnel?” 


“Good. I just wanted to make sure we’re on the same page.” 


Seemingly satisfied with everything, The April in Red gathers up her photos and papers into her folder again and walks away, her heels clicking on the cold tile floor before she stops for a moment.


“Just so you know, you shouldn’t give up on Hana. And you shouldn’t make it your burden. Her choices are and will always be her own. You can’t let that hang over you, over us. You have enough burdens and fuck-ups of your own to carry the proverbial cross for. You can’t have a messiah complex over somebody who doesn’t want to be fucking saved. Just my two cents.” 



April woke up in her own bed just a few moments after that bizarre conversation ended. It was probably one of the most vivid dreams she had ever had in her lifetime…and she decided to take it to heart. 







I don’t even know what I’m doing anymore, honestly. Everything that I touch seems to go to shit. I didn’t want to compete in the Athena’s Cup tournament. But I was involved and gave the Banshee a hell of a fight before coming up short. I tried my damn hardest to save Hana and Chris from Havoc and…I’ve saved no one. Hana’s seemingly under Havoc’s control fully now and…we all saw what happened to Chris. I tried to be a good tag partner to Diantha as well back in the day and I managed to fuck that up too because I got jealous. 




When I look over the landscape of Odyssey right now, I see battle lines being drawn. I see monsters and heroes alike gathering strength, waiting for the perfect opportunity to strike. I see so many familiar faces getting prepared to qualify for the Promethean Chamber, which in my opinion is like preparing to qualify for a fight in the Coliseum. Fighting in a structure like that is something that I’ve only done once before. It’s bloody. It’s violent. It sheds time off your career and ruins your quality of life forever. 




So…I do have to ask you, NAMI…are you sure you really want to try to go through with this? Are you sure that you want to try to put your body through such a fate? I don’t ask that to you out of disrespect, just so you know. I’ve been pleased to watch your growth from a bratty little shit who I thought would be gone in just a few weeks being a former Goddesses Champion. You stood your ground so many times with Llorona and continued to do the right thing, even when it was probably a detriment to do so. She threw your past into your face, quite literally, and you were able to persevere. Since you’ve gotten more and more serious about being a wrestler, you’ve improved so much not just in mentality but in skill. 




Unfortunately for you, you face me now.




That’s not to say you should be intimidated or anything like that. You shouldn’t. The problem that you face is that I don’t have anything else left to lose. There’s nothing that I give a damn about anymore, not even my own well being. There is nothing that I won’t do, no hold I won’t apply, no line I won’t cross just to make sure that I’m in that Chamber instead of you. There is a LONG fucking list of people that I owe a good and thorough assbeating. 




Rebecca Filth. 




The Banshee. 




That Other blonde bitch Filth rides with just out of association. 




Tarah Nova.




Alyssa Grace. 




And if fate is especially kind…Hana and Havoc. 




You want to get into that Chamber match to prove that you belong in the upper echelon of the roster, that you’re ready to take the step that others before you like myself, Alyssa, and Dulce have done before you and make the jump from being Goddesses Champion to World Champion. It’s a jump that I think that you can and will eventually make. 




But it will not be at my expense. Not now, not ever. You are a talented, beautiful, charismatic and honorable athlete. There are certain lines that you’re not willing to cross just yet to get where you desperately want to go. This weekend, I’m going to prove it to you. I’m going to twist, poke, prod and pull at every weak spot, anything that I consider a weakness, until you’ve either been broken or you find a way to rise above it and get to the Chamber. 




You have a long, fruitful career in this sport if you choose to stick it out. That’s not me blowing smoke out of your ass to try to soften you up. I truly believe that you have everything that it takes to get to the top. I honestly wish that I had grasp of wrestling and of life that you do now when I was your age, maybe I wouldn’t feel like so much of my youth was misspent now. However, as good as I think you are now and will be, chamber matches require a certain darkness, a certain scar on the soul that I’m not sure that you’ve acquired just yet. 




You’ve never felt anything like the sickening feeling of the steel of that structure smashing against your body, the glass puncturing your skin. The feeling of gravity pulling your body down to the canvas after being thrown off of or willingly jumping off of one of the containment pods. It’s all the brutality of a prison without the prison guards, all for the cruel and sadistic entertainment of not just the fans but of the opposition that you’re going against. 




The only time I’ve stepped into such a structure, the only reason that I didn’t win was that the fix was in from the beginning…there was a mole buried inside to make sure a certain Claudia Michaels remained atop the wrestling world. I’m much wiser than I was two years ago in WrestleWorld…and I know that everyone involved would be out for themselves. I have no ill will towards you, NAMI, and certainly not in comparison to the myriad of obstacles that will await the winner of this match between us.




But that does not mean that I will not rip your body to shreds to get to where I want to be. You want to prove that you can rise to the top, overcome your loss to Devi like a true champion? You’re going to have to prove that you can endure what will be the absolute worst beating of your entire life. I’m going to pull and pull on something until it snaps, and I’m going to fucking enjoy it. My advice to you would be to make sure that you’re ready to endure a lot of pain, a lot of suffering, and a lot of the absolute best April Song has to offer.


Cages are for animals like me, not you. Your feathers are far too bright and angelic to be soiled with blood. This old bird is going to make sure that they stay clean as a whistle, too.

Odyssey #2: Silence is Gold.




17.11.22 Somewhere in Greece

*After the voices started to haunt her again, Hana had a rough few days. At one point they were so insistent, that Hana no longer knew if it was Dark Impulse or maybe Havoc was trying to confuse her even more. However, the girl seemed to be calm, despite all this insistence. Despite all the terrible things that only she heard, she somehow managed to concentrate on current affairs. After all, she knew that she couldn't look like a mess, when she flew to Europe. She was aware that if she became too emotional, there would be no strength on this earth that would make Hana able to get in the ring at all. Hana had to be strong not only for herself, but also for her husband. Especially since, there was no option that she would let go of the constant disrespect from Angelina Magnum, which exceeded all limits of decency. It was sure thing, that this stupid woman would learn that silence is golden.*

*The shot opens in one of the Greek hotels, specifically in a luxury bathroom. The camera quickly snaps to the current Goddesses Champion, sitting in a bathtub filled with red liquid and white rose petals. However, she is not completely naked, Hana is wearing a white bikini and a choker with a heart-shaped buckle. Wet red hair falls over her shoulders, as she reaches out to drink a glass of red wine. As Hana puts down her glass, she turns more towards the camera and leans against the edge of the tub, leaving red streaks across it.*

I have always liked creative people, because there is nothing better than an open mind full of ideas. You can't find anything better than someone who will be able to imagine the situation and solve it quickly as well. However, the 'creativity' of some turns into an unhealthy dominance of the world created in their head. These people don't understand what is happening in real life anymore. These people have blurred the line between reality and imagination a long time ago. That's why, they think they're living the life of their imagination, which sounds like schizophrenia at this point. And while in this case you can look for an excuse in mental illness, here we are dealing with being simply desperate. Here, this obsession with the unreal world is the result of not having enough attention to please the ego of such an individual. And honestly? As long as it doesn't disturb someone's peace, living in your own bubble is forgivable. However, the moment someone else's fantasies cause that person to meddle in your life, it's time to break through the protective layer that they have created for themselves.

*Hana's calm expression changes in the blink of an eye. Unless a girl shows too much emotion, the coldness and hatred emanating from her eyes can cut like a knife.*

For someone who pretends to have so much confidence, you're awfully insecure, Angelina. For someone who presents herself as god's supposed gift to the world, you're so full of complexes that you will never admit to. But even if you don't say it out loud, it doesn't take much to notice it. It doesn't take more than a few minutes to see how desperate you are to be noticed by others, because you're not good enough on your own to attract attention and be in the spotlight. Looking at the stupidity of the modern world, you may have thought that plastic surgery, tons of makeup, and a fake tan that is so dark it could be blackfishing at this point, would make everyone's eyes turn to you. The problem is, there are a lot of pretty girls in the world, and you're not any more special than they are. What's more, I wouldn't even include you in this category, because plastic is not fantastic. And I think at some point you realized it was of no use to you, which is why you cling to the rest of Thotyssey so tightly. You are at least minimally aware that if you separate yourself from them, you will die in a crowd of incompetent rookies, because you have nothing to offer. The brutal fact is that Felix and Filth are like a respirator to you. If someone pulls out the wires, you will surely die, which wouldn't be such a bad option after all. Say it's not cold-hearted and brutal, but your miserable existence has no value to this world. In the eyes of society, you're just a pile of shit covered in glitter, but that doesn't make you a diamond.

*Hana comes out of the bathtub and sits on its edge, also resting her hands on a pearl white surface.*

Even under normal circumstances, I wouldn't like such a disgusting whore like you, but your attitude towards my family makes me want to push you out of a top floor window of a skyscraper. But not because I'm jealous, because that's what you exactly believe in. The thing is, I have no reason to envy you. I am more successful, I am naturally pretty and surely more intelligent than you will ever be. But besides such a obvious things, everyone knows perfectly well that your story about how you fucked my husband is just your fucking imagination. Look, I know Chris is a handsome guy, but to be so obsessed, as to constantly think about him pushing through your dry as desert pussy? It is mental issue at this point. If you're bored, read a book or two, instead of writing your own story. I'm sure a little knowledge wouldn't hurt you. It might melt your brain a bit, but you will recover. But back to my point. You can say all that crap, but just because you speak about it on live television,  it doesn't mean it is true. Just because you start harassing my husband in the arena corridors, it won't make these people believe in your smut stories. Bitch, what completely makes your hentai story to be not even credible in one percent is Chris's reaction. This guy was running the fuck away from you with a disgust on his face. Everyone knew he was so completely uninterested, that he wouldn't touch you with a stick. Besides, I just trust him, and what happened to him wasn't my will in the slightest. Perhaps your tiny brain, if you have one, cannot comprehend the complicated circumstances I am going through. But I didn't kill Chris, there were other forces that were dominating me at the time. And I don't know if it was Dark Impulse or Havoc at this point. But everyone who knows me, can assure that I've always done everything I could to protect him. And this time i won't just take care of his funeral and move on, because I will never forget about him. I will find a way to bring him back. Fuck it, maybe even Arata hold on a power to resurrect people. Anyway, I'll do my best to see once again with the love of my life.

But I don't expect someone as shallow and stupid as you to understand the pain in my heart to see him like this. You have no idea how much I suffer that the demons in my head have contributed to this tragic situation. But above all, someone so self-centered will never understand the concept of love. Someone who has no sense of honor will never be able to understand what loyalty is. So do your words hurt me? No, people have been talking about me a lot of shit over the years. At some point, some things stop being that sensitive. But you know? What I can't stand is making jokes and sick fantasies out of my husband' tragedy. What annoys me is your insults towards him. Do you really think he was happy with Havoc? Chris cried many times saying how much that dick had ruined his life. So many times he regretted that he had hurt so many people and that the power he had wasn't worth it. Especially since it was without his permission, he just took over his body. Though, now I see you and Havoc have quite a lot in common. You're both not asking for consent. Bitch, you're lucky you're a woman, or you'd have been in prison long ago for molesting others like this. And frankly, it's sick that OWA would even hire someone who doesn't understand the concept of personal space. I don't know what they're waiting for, but sooner or later Llorona will understand the consequences of having such a piece of shit here.

I keep calling you a piece of shit, because that's all you are compared to me. While I disagree with the label of a prodigy, because I'm more of a hard worker, I'm still levels above you, Angelina. For the last two years, I made my way to success. Well, at this point, I'm Tag Team Championships away from being one of not many Triple Crown holders. So I have every right to keep my head up and look down on you. Whereas you seem to have a much bigger ego than me. You think you're holding onto your main eventer status, but it's just another one of your wet fantasies. What makes you think that, moron? You think you can hang out with the best, cause you fucked up your chance to become world champion twice? It is amusing that you think, that just participating in such a match is making you a main event talent. If you go on with such a stupid logic, you might as well call Devi a main eventer. So let me explain something to you. The main event spot has nothing to do with how many times you have to kneel in front of the chairman to be handed to you championship shot. This is a status you've been working on since day one with your ring skills. This is a status you can only achieve, when you are strong enough to take that belt home. While you? All you were able to do was to be the first easy defense for Filth, and then the reason why that championship is no longer in her dirty hands. So I don't know if it's such a smart idea for you three to work together. I mean, for you it would be the only way to survive, but for them? You'd be a deadweight for them. However, you do realize that they won't babysit you all the time, right? Eventually, they'll get tired of having to change your diaper every time. Because, contrary to what you claim, you're not a real woman. You are a brat, who shits her pants whenever things go differently than you want. So why should Felix and Filth make their lives difficult? Especially since they can make stuff on their own. I don't like both of them, but they are strong individuals. They don't need the rest of Thotyssey to mean something, and you're especially useless to them. Whereas that stupid faction is the only reason people in the pink brand even know your name. If it wasn't for them, Angelina Mangum wouldn't be a bit of a known name in the wrestling industry right now. This name could mean a lot in the porn business at max.

*Hana gets up and passes by the camera, heading to the living room, then sits on the swing placed in front of the large balcony window.*

So much has happened in the last few months, and no one seems to understand the true power that Havoc holds. Everyone wants to play cool and brave, but don't you remember how it ended for Kingdom? When this monster went mad, dead bodies fell to the ground like flies. And this time? He is even stronger, especially when he is supported by my negative energy. And when I look at you, nothing positive comes to my mind, Angelina, which should let you know that you're in serious danger. But you're so delusional that you don't even see it. This bubble of safety that you have made surrounds you so tightly, that you will see the real world only when your body is hit hard...when your corpse is dropped on the cold board of the coffin. And this is your destiny on Odyssey. I could say I will have blood on my hands, but I'm afraid I might catch some crap. Anyway, in Greece not only is your hope for another championship shot coming to an end, but so is your miserable existence.
*Hana leans back, and when the camera catches her face again, her eyes are black and devoid of any mercy.*

Odyssey Promo #1

"Wu Origins"



Five months ago.

Cassie Wu stood outside of the War Room Dojo, confused. The gate was up but the place looked to be closed. It was the middle of the day, which means there should be a decent amount of foot traffic coming in and out of the facility. She's never been here - much less this part of Brooklyn, but today was more of a special day than most. Today, Cassie was going to have her first training session with the school's newest owner, Serenity Scorpio. She wished it was her cousin Stephanie Matsuda, but she moved to Japan and sold the gym to her first student and daughter of the original owner. Her mother was right - she should've approached her cousin sooner, but nobody in the family anticipated her retirement, including Aunt Lynne. According to Steph's mom, she didn't know about her moving back to Japan either. 

The woman people called "Cloud" is three years older than her with a thirteen year career in an industry Cassie was just setting her foot in. She had a feeling the Stephanie these people saw from fans to her opponents, and maybe even her students was different from the cousin she grew up with. She wouldn't describe their relationship as close, but they always greeted each other warmly. During one teenage summer, she visited her in Tokyo where Stephanie helped improve her volleyball game. They would also have several sparring sessions. While Steph was learning karate, Cassie went the kung fu route, studying wing-chun alongside wushu. It made sense to her - her Asian half was Chinese - courtesy of her father. It's a humorous family observation that the daughters of Grandma Mia has a taste for Asian men. Lynne and Cassie's own mother take it in stride. Unlike Stephanie's family, her parents were still happily married. But divorce hasn't caused any damage to Stephanie's relationship with her family. The last time Cassie saw Stephanie was last year's Thanksgiving. The family rented a mansion on Air BNB out in the Hamptons. Steph brought her wife and adopted daughter Jocelyn, who she hear is engaged. Now that she thought about it Serenity used to team up with her-

The door opened, interrupting Cassie's thought process. She looked up and saw a dark skinned man with braids standing before her wearing a SSW shirt and sweatpants. He was...kind of cute-

"Hi, Cassie?" He asked, eyebrow raised.

"Y-yes. Sorry! I'm just surprised you're closed at this time," Cassie replied, following the man into the dojo.

"That's because we're renovating" a female voice replied. 

Cassie looked ahead and saw a brown skinned woman walking out from an office in the back. She had a young face, but her eyes seemed wise beyond their years. She wore a black LAW sweater and grey gym tights. Her white sneakers moved her across the gym in Cassie's direction. She recognized Serenity Hunter, aka Serenity Scorpio.

"Until we reopen we'll be training you individually. Cloud promised if we did that, she'd pay for the renovations." Serenity crossed her arms. 

Cassie placed her bag down. She wasn't having second thoughts about training. She just missed her cousin a little. As if reading her expression, Serenity continued. 

"Stephanie says you're a fast learner. Infact, upon the completion of your basic training, she's going to arrange a tryout with OWA. I took a look at your resume: number athletic awards and martial arts experience. As long as you pay attention, I have no doubt you'll catch on quickly. In fact, I want to test your fitness right away."

Cassie blinked several times. "Wait, what?"

Serenity cracked a smile. "Welcome to your first day of training. Now drop of give me fifty."

--------

The present.

(The camera opens to Cassie Wu sitting in her hotel room in Greece, looking at her web cam to address the OWA Universe.)

"Everytime I look over this card, I think to myself 'Cass, you really have your work cut out for you.' When I came out to save Aaliyah Landerson, I was making a stand of sorts. As two the new girls around here, it doesn't surprise me that snakes like Dr. Hastings would attempt to use us as stepping stones. Note the keyword, "attempt". Women like Dr. Snooty thinks just because she's accomplished a PhD that she's better than the rest of us. What she's failed to realize - along with the majority of my competition - is that there's a reason why my coudin believes in me. The years she's cousin spent inside that squared circle, I've spent dominating meets, tournaments, and any other competition I've found myself in. And like the Matsudas, us Wus are known for passing down our knowledge to others. And yet, I still feel like I'm in over my head. Why? Because the world of OWA is sn unpredictable one. We have people who claim to be gods, martial artists, resurrections, and time travel! Steph didn't tell me everything, but enough to keep me on my toes. She knows I'm capable of handling myself because I'm at my best when I'm feeling in over my head. I excel when the odds are stacked against me."

"The name that connects Cloud and I is "Wallace", the maiden names of our mothers. And if there's anything Wallace women share is stone cold tenacity. When we set our minds on a goal, we never give up. Stephanie's resume alone is proof of that, as well as her mother's military rank. As for me? I've always aced everything I've attempted. From volleyball, to gymnastics, to martial arts. And now here I am, opening night in the squared circle, in a dance with fourteen other women for a shot at Felix Hartley and the Sparks Championship. Oddly enough, I'm already connected to two women in this match. One by animosity - the aforementioned Dr. Hastings - and one by relation...of sorts."

"Mrs. Bianca Andrews. You may not know me, but I know you. Or better yet, I'm technically related to your wife. I know you and Cloud don't acknowledge it on camera, but Jocelyn is the link that binds us all. Beyond that, you and Steph go way back to the JET days. Leading up to this match, I've studied your matches. I know you're a former JET World Champion. I know you have a chance to regain that title soon, and maybe you're hoping to end the year with two titles in your hands. Sorry to say it's not happening. I have a chance to make a splash and nothing's standing in my way. I don't care what creatures Marie and Violet are capable of conjuring. If I have to pull a Buffy Summers in the middle of that godforsaken ring then call me the Slayer, bitches! We have Devi Krysis, the woman who introduced Odyssey to the Sparks Championship in the first place. I know you must feel like you've let down the legacy of Brody Sparks, but if it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have this opportunity. No disrespect though, I can't let you win. You've had your chance, but once I clip that belt from the hands of Thotyssey's honey pot, I'll give you a chance at redemption. Koo? Koo."

"Earlier I talked about time traveling and it was none other than Rin Asakura that introduced us to the concept. I don't know her secrets nor much about her family, but even a blind man knows how much disruption the Asakuras caused all over the OWA landscape. I'm not here to safe the company or anything, but I'd rather keep that complicated anime shit from the Sparks division. I see this as an opportunity to put myself in its sights. Stephanie originally introduced that title to LAW as a jump off point for rookies, and being that I'm the new kid on the block, I'm going to get mine. And it doesn't take a psychologist to figure out an opportunity like this is perfect for newbie savants such as myself."

"Geez, who else do we have in this match? LA chicks, French assassins, and like three joshis. Hmm...am I a joshi? Do Chinese Blasians get a pass? I don't write the rules to this shit. We have femme fatales like Dani, and Rebecca Brookes who took my cousin to her limits a year ago. But like at Hardcore Havoc '21, another Wallace girl is going to be her in the fall, surrounded by the bodies of multiple women. I mean how hard is it to win a Battle Royal? I just have to toss a bunch of bodies over the ropes? As long as I stay away from the edge, I should be okay...right? Geez. This wrestling stuff is intense."

"By the way guys, I'm going to be wearing something very comfortable so don't get upset if I walk out like I'm getting ready for bed. I spent years wearing leotards snd short-shorts that ride up my ass while perverts post clips of my assets on the internet. "Men of culture" my ass. No pun. Hmm...maybe pun intended. Anyways I should continue to train for this match. I can care less if these heauxes think I got here because of nepotism. This Saturday in Greece, a new Odyssey begins and I'll be walking out as the protagonist and Felix Hartley's newest Challenger. Wu, out!"

OWA Promos - Page 15 Filthbanner1-copy

“To most people, loss tastes bitter. Like the first time you take a swig of alcohol. It goes down rough. Burns your insides on the way.

But the more you experience it, the smoother it tastes. The burning subsides and you let that dark medicine coat your throat like it’s nothing.

Because to you it isn't. Just another loss on a sad record. You get mad for a second. You feel shame. Embarrassment. You ball your fists. But it quickly subsides as you move onto the next challenge in front of you. Like nothing happened. Resolved that that moment didn’t define you. It won’t represent who you are.

Except that moment keeps repeating itself. Over and over again.

Anyone can win a match. Anyone can get lucky for a moment. Loss is a part of this game. But when the losses start to stack up, you have to question if you have what it takes. If maybe they are a part of you.

I tasted my first loss at the hands of Natalie Cage so long ago I forgot what it felt like. The taste was a memory. At Boiling Point, it came back to me. But I was surprised. It wasn’t shame I felt. It wasn’t regret. Even though I made a calculated error.

No. What I felt was disgust. Not in myself. But in knowing that what I had built was about to be destroyed. In knowing that someone who was NOT better than me was about to stand at the top of the mountain and proclaim herself the best. Because without that belt, I am still untouchable. Without that belt, I am still a woman who was undefeated for a year and half. I am still a woman who is UNPINNABLE inside that ring. My career as a whole is untouchable. No one on this roster has done what I did in such a short amount of time.

For years I have been picking at the losses my opponents have suffered. I have got inside their heads and ripped apart their cherished moments. I have cut down their reigns and exposed them as the losers that the world should know them as. I have come to learn loss. To see it all around me. To bear witness to it at my own hands. I have caused loss. Lost moments. Lost championships. Lost careers.

You think we are the same, Gwen. You think that because I also swallowed that bitter pill at Boiling Point, that somehow it means you have some sort of chance? But let’s not get ahead of ourselves. My loss was a one in a million moment. A strike of luck. And let me tell you, that this week, I take steps to avenge that loss. Because unlike so many other women around here, I don’t respect my opponents. I abhor them. Banshee is a wretched champion and she doesn’t deserve to hold a piece of gold that I created history with at Final Destination. In loss I feel disgust at her success. In loss I felt hatred and rage wash over me. She isn’t better than me. She wasn’t the better woman. She never will be. And I want nothing more than to step inside a cage and rip her to shreds. To force her to get locked inside a cell with me and my Thotyssey sisters and dish out our own form of vengeance.

You? You can say that loss allows you to adapt and change. But those are just words. Because you have had every chance to adapt since returning. You walked back in the door and were placed into the Athena’s Cup tournament. You were then given a chance at the Goddess Championship and squandered them. I went a fucking year and a half without anyone beating me. I STILL haven’t been pinned. So for you to compare our losses? Bitch, get fucked.

We both know that the difference between you and me is immense. We are worlds apart. We both know that stepping into that ring and being the ONLY woman to ever put my shoulders to the mat is impossible. We both know that you have never stepped into the ring with a woman like me. A woman who truly is untouchable. A woman who stepped into Odyssey and flipped this brand on its head in her first year. A woman who isn’t fucking done standing at the top of the mountain.

You are a hunter. You stalk your prey. You lay in wait. I put myself in impossible situations. I stare my opponents in the face and spit at their feet. I take legacies and twist them until they break in my hands like glass. I stand in the middle of that ring with every odd stacked against me and I laugh before coming out the other side. I have rawdogged this entire roster! I retired the woman who won the Promethean Chamber last year. I unified two WORLD TITLES at Final Destination. You played hot potato with a midlevel belt and mediocre Dulce Torres. Hell, you wanna tout being one of the few two-time champions on this brand? My SINGLE world title reign is longer than both of your reigns combined. We are not the same. Not even close.

The difference between you and I is that loss is who you are. It is what you are comfortable with. You don’t adapt. You don’t change. You accept. You make excuses. You tell us all that the next time will be different. And I’m sure you’ll get that win some time. I’m sure you won't lose forever. You’ll find your footing in the midcard again. I won’t deny that you have some skill. But do you truly see the woman who is standing in front of you? Do you truly think that stepping up to the most dominant woman in the world will be EASY?! You think you will be able to take me down, pin my slutty little shoulders to the mat and screw me? You think you’ll be able to make me squirm and scream in that ring only to snuff the life out of my career and my momentum? That’s a mountain you can’t conquer.

Gwen, this isn’t fiction. This isn't a story you can tell of the unicorn you slayed. Of the time you did the unthinkable. This is reality. I am not some mythical creature. I am flesh and blood. You won’t get the chance to sneak up on me. I will stand toe to toe with you and I will make you wish you were as good as you think you are. As good as you are in your dreams. When you close your eyes, I know you see the blood spurting from my lips. But in reality I am not prey. I am a cockroach. Unkillable. I am the whore who will bend your body inside that ring.  I’m the whore who will do WHATEVER it takes to make it to the Promethean Chamber. To stand inside those cold walls and watch Banshee’s career defining moment fall at my fucking feet. I am the whore who will force you open and splay you wide for the world to see like you do to your hunt. I will make you choke and gag on your dreams at my fucking feet.

You know, I was ready to push right through you to get to that chamber. My eyes were set firmly on Banshee and revenge. You were a means to an end. But then you opened your mouth. And you pleasantly surprised me. You’re so sure. You see hope in me. You see opportunity at my expense and you want it. I can see the light in your eyes. I can see that you truly believe that you could take this. The delusion has fully set in. And now, I’m going to have fun with you. I’m going to give it to you in that ring. I’m going to let you believe that you could win it. I’m going to edge you right to ecstasy. Your heart will start racing, you will salivate at the idea of being the woman to pin Rebecca Filth. Your cunt will quiver. Beating me is a career defining moment. And I know you see it. Fuck the chamber. For you? Beating me is the ultimate goal. It’s a win you could build an empire around. The main event scene is literally at your fingertips. You can barely graze it. You can taste it. Like fresh meat that you’ve just hunted.

You want this. You need this. Unlike me. You see, you think that needing this means something. That it will push you further. That it will give you an edge. But you needed the Athena’s Cup. You needed the Goddess Championship. You promised those girls that you wouldn’t miss either. Yet here you are, empty fucking handed. Your needs mean nothing. I’ve never needed to win a match or a title to remain at the top of the food chain. I’ve never needed to beat some bottom-tier bitch to know that I am hot fucking shit. But when has that ever stopped me? I didn’t need to win the Clash. I didn’t need to win TWO matches at Final Destination. I didn’t need to bring back bra and panties matches to bring eyes to the brand. But I fucking did. Because winning is who I am. And losing is who you are.

You need this. You want this. It’s so fucking close, in your deluded little brain. Except the only thing standing in your way is the toughest challenge of your entire fucking career. A woman no one has been able to defeat. A woman who has made her name off the blood, sweat and tears of her opponents. A woman who climaxes at the thought of shattered dreams and lost hope inside that ring. A woman who is fucking moist thinking about watching you thrash at her feet. Who moved from wanting to hurt you, to wanting to fucking destroy you. You said it yourself, I’m the best. And I will NOT let you try and make your fucking career off the back of mine. For once, you will feel what it’s like to be hunted. To feel the pang of sorrow and horror, like a knife to your chest, when your lights dim in that ring. To watch as I take my rightful place in the Promethean Chamber. To know that you will never belong in the upper echelon of this brand. When you realize with how much ease I dispose of you in that ring. When you realize that the main event is not where you belong.

You may be a decent midcarder Gwen. But this is not your moment. This is not your ascension to the top. This is nothing more than a cold slap in the fucking face. A bucket of ice water down your back. You will have to come to the startling realization that I truly am untouchable. That the whore who lets random men ravage her body night in and night out, will be the one ravaging you inside that ring. I will be the one who contorts your body, and makes you bleed. Who hurts you and chokes the life out of your fucking body while you call me Daddy.

I am the domme of Odyssey. I am the Undisputed Whore, titles or not. And I am going to dispose of you and head into Hardcore Havoc with one mission in mind - to get MY fucking title back.

Don’t worry, Gwen. You’re used to loss. You’ve experienced it over and over again. I know you’re going to fight it. But I will force the bitter poison that is loss down your throat one more time. You can choke and gag and try to spit it in my face. But just like me, you’ll swallow like a good girl.”

Josie Grey sits on the edge of her bed, mindlessly fiddling with her fingers as she stares off into space. Her dog, Rasputin, lays beside her, gnawing on a large bone. She occasionally tsks and nods her head, responding to the conversation only she can hear. She slowly lifts her left hand and gently pats her eyepatch, making sure it’s still firmly in place. After what happened a few weeks ago - and on international television, no less - she feels she has the right - no, an obligation - to keep that patch on.

She focuses on one name in particular: Rin Asakura. The others blur, forming a halo around the devil’s name. 


Josie sneers, her lip shaking from feral anger. She cracks her neck slowly and grits her teeth, clenching and unclenching her fists, blinking rapidly and staring violently at random. Her left hand slowly creeps up towards her eyepatch…


ᛚᛖᛏ ᛗᛖ ᛟᚢᛏ


ᛚᛖᛏ ᛗᛖ ᛟᚢᛏ


Josie grips the bottom of the patch…her mouth curls into a sinister smile…


ᛚᛖᛏ ᛗᛖ ᛟᚢᛏ
ᛚᛖᛏ ᛗᛖ ᛟᚢᛏ


ᛚᛖᛏ ᛗᛖ ᛟᚢᛏ


She slowly lifts…


Before yelping in pain as Rasputin nips at her thigh. She lets go off the patch, her trance painfully lifted, as she glares down at the Belgian Mal staring back at her. 


“...Good boy…not so hard, though…”


Rasputin lays his head on her lap, prompting Josie to give him his well-deserved good boy pats. He suddenly lifts his head and stares at the door, his ears perking up. Josie, taking his cue, looks over at the door. She slowly stands and tsks twice, sending Rasputin to a position beside the door…he sniffs at the bottom of the door as footsteps quietly echo outside…


Rasputin suddenly perks up, wagging his tail back and forth so fast it almost knocks him off his feet. His tongue juts out of his mouth as he rushes back to Josie and sits beside her. 


“Oh, we’re good?”


Rasputin growls in affirmation, prompting Josie to nod and relax. She reaches up and ties her shoulder length blonde hair into a ponytail as she walks to the door. A second after she steps in front of it, three knocks. 


“OPEN UP, STUPID.”


Josie smiles and unlocks the multiple locks on the door. 


“Jesus Christ, Jo…thats so many locks…”


“It’s OAKLAND, Mike!”


Josie swings the door open, revealing OWA World Champion Michael Bishop and OWA Dirty Rotten Scoundrel Tarah Nova, her big brother and big sister (adopted…by her). She damn near leaps out the door, swinging her arms around Bishop’s neck, almost taking him off his feet. He smiles and hugs her back. 


“Hey, kiddo! Happy Thanksgiving!”


Tarah scoffs and narrows her eyes at him. 


“That’s NEXT week!”
“Whatever…French Thanksgiving.”


“That’s why you made me bring all this food? That’s why you have a pie?”


“That is why I have a pie, yes.”


Josie releases the hug and pulls Tarah in for another, prompting the sinister madame to smile and hug back even tighter.


“We don’t celebrate Thanksgiving.” Josie says over her shoulder. 


“You don’t? What the fuck is wrong with you guys?”


Josie releases the hug and stares at Bishop like he has ten heads. 


“...what…in the hell…do the French have to be thankful for, Mike?...Wine? Cigarettes? Letting HITLER march in?”


“...I mean…Wine…”


“...yeahokthatcouldwork…but we just show our appreciation by drinking it. Hourly.”


Bishop nods in agreement. Tarah shrugs slightly. Bishop looks around. 


“So, we gonna go inside, or is this where your apartment is? In this hallway?”


Josie gasps in French and steps into her apartment, waving Tarah and Mike in. Rasputin IMMEDIATELY runs up to Bishop and stops at his feet, standing at perfect attention. Bishop locks eyes with the dog for a few moments, before kneeling down, putting his forehead to Ras’. He doesn’t say a word, just gently rubs the dog behind the ears, forehead to forehead. Rasputin is as calm as he can be. 


“Awwwwwwwwwwww, he kinda remembers you maybe.”


Tarah chuckles and places her bag of food on the counter as Josie quickly tidies her living room. The apartment is…fine. It’s a one bedroom in Oakland. It’s…fine. It’s not much, but it’s perfect for Josie and Rasputin. Plus, weed is legal and there’s a dispensary, like, right across the street. So, it’s fine. 


Tarah turns around and smiles at Josie. 


“So…how you feeling?”


“Fine…oui, fine and dandy like sour candy.” Josie smiles. 




“Yeah? Not just…saying that?” Tarah asks. 


Josie and Tarah at each other for a shockingly awkward amount of time. 


Josie points at Rasputin.


“...I have a dog.”


Tarah scoffs and hangs her head. Josie smirks as Bishop walks up to her, gently shoving her as he approaches. She playfully shoves back and smiles wide. Tarah looks up, slightly more serious. 


“Josie…how ARE you? Don’t be a four year old weirdo, just answer the question.”


“I feel great, T! Why would I feel any other way? I don’t even…Ha…I don’t…Heh…What are you…Ha…ha…You.”


“...Josie…you had a literal demon possess you a few weeks ago an-”


“Norse demigod, daughter of Fenrir,” Bishop interjects. Tarah glares at him before continuing. 


“...yes, thank you, Michael. You had a Norse DEMIGOD, who is apparently the daughter of Fenrir, possess you…on LIVE Television. KENNY DRAKE… had to run out and do…God only knows what to stop you before you killed Nami…and nobody has seen or heard from you since, until what? A day or two ago? You can put this act on for other people, love, but it’s not going to work on me or Mike. What’s going on? How ARE you?”


Josie hangs her head slightly, sniffing a bit. 


“Nami is with The Asakuras now…I should have killed her.”


“Well…here we are. Your list of enemies grows.”


“I don’t care if I have enemies.”


“Well, you should. Right now, that entire roster is looking at you like you’re a freak. Don’t get me wrong, that’s not a bad thing. I made my career off of that and thrived, but I still had allies. Until you get this whole demigod shit under control, nobody on that roster will want to risk sticking their neck out for you. Pretty soon? It will REALLY be Josie Grey versus the world. So…for the last time…how…are…you?”


Josie continues to stare at her feet, silent as a church mouse. Bishop puts his arm around her shoulders and pulls her in for a brotherly side hug.


“...I’m…not doing so great, T…I’m…finding it very very hard…to keep this all in check. To keep…her…in my head and out of the real world. It’s…It’s becoming a lot. She’s finding ways of taking control, without having to leave. The other day, I wrote pages and pages of notes, all in Old Norse…I had no control over my hand, it just kept writing page after page after page…until it finally just stopped. Weed helps…obviously…it keeps it all quiet, and wine seems to make her happy…but it’s…I don’t know, T…I don’t know what to do. I can’t have Kenny be on call in case it happens again, can I?”


“You wrote notes in Old Norse?” Bishop inquires. 


“Yeah, or runes or whatever…”


“Do you still have them?”


“Yeah, over there on the café table.”


Bishop gently rubs her back before walking over to the notes, picking them up and reading as he plops on the couch. He tsks, and Rasputin practically teleports to his side. 


“I guess he can read Old Norse," Josie says to herself. 


“Well, look at him go." 


Tarah shifts her attention back to Josie and gently holds her face.  She smiles a warm, concerned smile. 


“Josie Grey, you are an incredibly strong, durable young woman. You are fighting against a God, and you’re winning.”


“...demigod…”


“Shut up. Now tell me…what’s the trigger? What makes her suddenly…act out?”


Josie shrugs. 


“I have no idea, T…it’s…it’s like whenever I stop and think.”


“About?”


“I dunno…anything.”


“Really…so it could happen right now?”


“I mean, it’s possib-”


“Rin Asakura and Arata Asakura.”


Josie’s demeanor immediately changes. Her right eye twitches slightly as she bears her teeth and softly growls. Tarah nods and gently strokes Josie’s face. 


“There it is…”


Tarah shifts her attention to the wall and notices the list. She pulls Josie in for a side hug and points to it. 


“Focus on the other people in this. Divert your attention to these other bitches and put the Asakura’s on the shelf for a bit. What do you think about your chances in this match?”


Josie shrugs slightly as she takes a deep breath.


“Pretty good…I mean…there’s 13 other women and a cunt and me, so…it’s…intense.”


“But you’ve dealt with intense before. You’ve handled the Underground, so you can handle this. Break it down, one by one, cmon. Bianca.”


“She’s…nothing to me. A faded shell of what she used to be, and that wasn’t even all that much. I expect nothing of value from her in this match, or any venture going forward. Should I need to, I can beat her down and make her a total non factor.”


“Good. Cassie Wu.”


“The SleepyTime Tea bear? What about her?”


“Are you worried about her?”


“Not unless I need to stay awake for something.”


“Fair enough. Who else? Devi.”


“Awwww, I love Devi.”


“We all do, kid, but what about her in this match?”


“Oh, nothing. She’s still Devi Krysis.”


“Dani Fatale?”


“WHO?! The Inevitable?! I heard her a few days ago…I like her, but I can see through all of that shit. All of it. She’s a hard worker? Fantastic. So am I. Let’s see who works harder, oui?”


“Sure…uhhhh…Bethany.”


“She’s a…doctor? Or something? And she’s here to improve our mental and physical health…so that’s fun. I’d like to talk to her AFTER I win so I can maybe get some therapy or something…or at least a referral…”


“Ok, let’s skip ahead…Marie.”


“OHHHHH Yes. ME with TUSKS. That explains why her face looks like that. I will never…EVER…fear anybody or anything from Quebec. There’s a reason we took that place over so quickly, and it’s because they’re a bunch of pussies who evolved into sad clown street performers. It’s a fuckin’ Rennaisance Faire there every god damn day, T…it’s like they don’t know what the words ‘You look like a toddler playing dress up’ means…and she thinks cos Paris is the center of all things wonderful that there isn’t like…I dunno…CRIME? There’s much more to that city than the Eiffel Tower and a bunch of mimes, and a lot of it is very, very dangerous. So if she’s me with tusks, then I’m me with a shotgun, and I’ll make sure I put that Quebec hog down for good.”


“...well…there you go.”


“And while we’re on the topic of putting people down for good? Rin. That little…cheating fucking bitch Rin…this is my next chance to get at her. This is my new opportunity to eat her alive. She saw what I’m capable of…not just with…this -”


Josie smacks herself in the head, referring to the demigod.


“-but as just Josie Grey. She nearly fucking LOST…to JOSIE GREY, before her shitheel father made his completely unwanted presence known and cost me that shit. Did you see how close I was, T? How close I fucking was to getting SOME level of revenge? I could taste it. I could TASTE her fear…I could TASTE the cold sweat on her brow as she trembled before me…”


ᚴᛁᛚᛚ ᚺᛖᚱ


“...Josie…”


ᚴᛁᛚᛚ ᚺᛖᚱ


“I could SMELL it on her. The terror! And Arata RIPPED it all away. Well now? NOW, I have chaos. NOW I have 13 other women to distract her…and I will find my time to strike. You better believe I will…I will make Rin bleed out in the middle of that ring, and I will make her father WATCH. I will make them ALL WATCH as I RIP HER LIMB FROM LIMB, AND I GAIN MY VENGEANCE! I will make EVERYONE WITNESS the HORROR that is facing Josie Grey! I will make EVERYONE FEAR ULVENSDA-”


Rasputin leaps up and rushes to Josie’s side, again nipping at her thigh. Josie yelps again and looks down at Ras, before patting him gently on the head. 


Tarah pulls her in for a hug. Josie holds for a moment before hugging back…she lowers her head onto Tarah’s shoulder and gently sobs…


“I’m so sorry, T…I’m so sorry for what I’ve become…”


“Heyheyheyhey…don’t…I’m not sorry for what you’ve become. I’m proud of you, sweetie. You are a strong, intelligent, successful young woman…who has progressed in one of the hardest sports in the world at an exceptional rate. You have proven, to so many around the world, that you belong here. And after this match? After you beat those 14 other women? You’ll prove why YOU…not them…YOU deserve that Sparks championship. You CAN beat them. You CAN beat Felix Hartley. I believe it, Mike believes it…so many people believe it…now YOU have to believe it, too.”


Josie slowly looks up at Tarah, who wipes away a tear from her protegé’s face. 


“Do you believe you can beat them?”


“...Oui.”


“Do you believe you can beat Felix Hartley?”


“...Oui.”


“Do you believe you can control this thing in your head and take back your life?”


“...........oui…”


“That’s my girl. You got this, Jo. You’re a warrior. You’re the second coming of Joan of Arc…and your battle will end in a victory, as long as you believe. Oui?”


“...Oui…”


“Good girl. Now lets eat. MIKE. Let’s eat. Im starving.”


Bishop slowly stands, still reading the Norse Notes, and absentmindedly walks to the nearby table. Josie smiles and wipes her face before grabbing a pack of Parliaments and taking one out. She pops it in her mouth before heading to the window, opening it and swinging her leg out onto the fire escape. 


She suddenly stops and looks back at Tarah. 


“You’re wrong, though, T…it’s not 14 other women. It’s just 13.”


Josie looks out at the sun setting over Oakland. She smirks. 


“...Rin’s already dead.”


Josie snarls. She lights her cigarette, the flicking of the lighter turning the screen black. 





Fín.

Theodor Pavel, 'Don' Hendrix, marielacorriveau and Dr. Bethany Hastings have spoken. It’s such good shit!

Tom, this is a reminder to not post the meme you made under the promo title, do not ignore this note for God's sake 


OWA Promos - Page 15 Zombom15


I’m gonna let you in on a little secret: I enjoy hurting people. The world might see me as some perfect princess and trust me, I am, but I truly, truly love making the lives of others miserable. I always have. When I was a little girl, I loved flaunting my wealth and privilege to the other kids because I knew they hated me for it. I knew that every ounce of clout I had made them seethe with rage because they would never ascend to my level. When I was in high school, it was the same story. Every boy wanted to fuck me, every girl wanted to look like me. All I had to do was walk down a hallway and the world would stop and stare. If I didn’t get the grade I wanted? Just one little flutter of my eyes and pursing of my plump lips was enough to make any teacher rethink his choice. I didn’t care that it was wrong, I loved being the centre of attention and I always will.

I came into OWA with a lot of doubt to overcome. Because for all the privilege I’ve been afforded over the years, the knuckle dragging cunts in the world of wrestling will fight tooth and nail to protect their spot. I know this world and anyone who thinks I don't is telling on themselves. The entertainment world is cutthroat. I’ve had scripts stolen for me so I could nail an audition before anyone else even knew their lines, I’ve had shoes swapped out to a size too small so a model would fall over on the runway and ruin their career. I do not give a FUCK what I have to do to get ahead in this world and I will NEVER be ashamed of that. If my girls want to beat my opponent to a pulp, so be it. If I want to wrap a wrench round your head, so fucking be it. As long as I’m standing tall at the end with the bright lights making me glow, that’s all that fucking matters.


But I don’t need to make your life miserable, Hana, half the battle has been done for me already. Your husband is dead, your brain is broken, and you had to stand by and watch me disrespect the memory of your man. How did that make you feel? I straddled his effigy and had the ride of my fucking life while you sat at home and cried into your stuffed toys. This match isn’t about you trying to beat me, it’s about you trying to keep your shit together long enough to live through it. By no means do I think I can beat you with ease. You’re a champion, a mainstay on Odyssey, you wouldn’t still be here if you weren’t somewhat talented. But youth is just a synonym for inexperience, let the adults do the talking for a change.



You might think that it’s gonna be this way forever, but there comes a day when the good times wither. You’re going through it right now. Only 18 and already a widow, what a pitiful sight. Your belt can’t bring your husband back, nor can it erase the fact that I fucked his brains out before you snapped his neck.


Don’t worry, I’ve talked enough about your man and frankly, I’ve talked enough about you. I don’t find you interesting, Hana, you’re an overachieving youngster who’s about to learn a harsh lesson in growing up. It’s Havoc I’m interested in. All I ever hear about Havoc is the fear he evokes, the great strength that he grants his vessels. He’s certainly made his mark over the years, but he has waned since he left his strongest host. You have not lived up to the potential of your husband. Oh, you shot up the ranks quickly, sure, but you lost your world title almost as quickly as you won it. He might have fixed up your arm but Alyssa Grace still imposed her will and you broke. Havoc doesn’t lose, Havoc doesn’t falter, only a weak-willed human without the power to comprehend what they’ve been blessed with does that. You thought you could tame the beast, you thought that because your husband used him to great effect, you would reap the same rewards. Tell me, Hana, have you made the most of selling your soul? Have you done all you have with that enhanced strength? That durability? That viciousness? You should have walked through The Banshee like you did last year, you should have been facing me and Bex at Boiling Point, instead you got relegated to a jobber jog for a belt held by the pound-for-pound worst woman on the roster. How can you sit there and pretend any of your accomplishments mean anything? How can you sleep at night knowing that you’re sacrificing your body for mediocrity?


You see, most people are going to be looking at this match and be thinking how I could possibly win. After all, I’m the talentless slut with powerful friends and you’re the world-beating wunderkind with a demonic buddy, what chance do I have? I’ll beat you down over and over and you’ll start frothing at the mouth, your eyes will roll into the back of your head and then Havoc comes out to play. Well..I’ll tell you the truth, I’ll let you in on something that I’ve been excited to share for a long time…


I don’t want to FIGHT Havoc. I want to FUCK him.


Why would I want to fight the most powerful force in OWA? Why would I waste my precious energy against an entity that can snap me like a twig? He killed Christopher Sabertooth with zero effort, I’m not stupid. No, no, what I propose is so much more meaningful than trivial combat. I am a thot, a slut, a whore, a cum dumpster. Whatever term you’re thinking of to describe how much cock I’ve taken, I assure you there aren’t enough. You say you’re afraid of looking insecure? What kind of fucking moron are you? Embarrassment is the least of your worries now because I’m about to seduce Havoc like I do everyone. I know that you’re still set in your ways as a young little feminist who thinks she understands what a woman should be, but you know NOTHING about being a woman because you aren’t one.


You can shut the fuck about Odyssey being corrupted. You haven’t accomplished anything here without the help of a man inside you, the very thing you seem hell-bent on accusing me of. Which one of us made it to the finals of the Athena’s Cup and which one of us went crashing out in the first round? Which of us has consistently fought their way into a top spot since arriving here? It’s funny, everyone wants to call me a third wheel, talentless whore and yet the receipts say otherwise. You use the supernatural equivalent of PEDs to get ahead and somehow that isn’t a problem? And you’re stupid enough to tell your dark impulses to stay behind so you can beat me up all by yourself? Honey, you think your threats faze me? You think I haven’t had some spooky bitch wax lyrical about how she’s gonna kill me already? Banshee already cut this promo, babe, get some better material.


I love being a skank and as much as you don’t want Havoc out there, he’ll show up. He’ll look at how strong, supple and willing my body is and he won’t be able to HELP himself. I ravaged Chris, made him feel like a man, Havoc knows this, knows that his beloved was inside of me…Chris is a part of me now. I wanna spread my legs wide and let that demon jump on in, I want him to fuck me so hard I start speaking in fucking tongues! I wanna be dicked down by evil incarnate and show it the time of its life! You can never be good enough for him, Hana, you don’t DESERVE him. All the men in your life leave and this won’t be any different. 


With Havoc’s power, I wouldn’t cry and complain, I would steamroll everyone in front of me. I would burn Banshee’s kingdom to the fucking ground and ensure Thotyssey’s dominance for a thousand generations! You think you have the stones to do what needs to be done? No. No because you have done nothing but fight against your gift, you selfish brat. I have never apologised for who I am or what I do, you just murdered your fucking husband and are upset that Havoc made you look insecure! You’re showing your age, babydoll. I might get the 40 year-old Internet virgins going with my body but at least my core demo isn’t fucking pedophiles.


I wanna be pumped full of the most evil, vile cum known to man, I wanna feel like I’m in the porn remake of Rosemary’s Baby. Havoc doesn’t need consent, he can take whatever the fuck he wants, a Demon Whore is exactly what the world needs. I won’t run from him, I won’t cower in the corner and shame him for the horrible thing he’s done. You’re holding him back and it’s disgusting. You are making Havoc weaker, I would push him beyond the limits of what even he thought was possible.


Bring your body to the ring this weekend and try to beat me in a fair fight. Just like every woman who’s gone toe-to-toe with me, you’ll have a bitter pill to swallow when I hit you like a fucking truck and your entire worldview gets throw into question. Then, when your inner demon comes out, watch in horror as I suck him right out of you and show him what true power feels like. I’m fucking you up and then I’m fucking him.


Lick my cunt, you waste of fucking skin. Your husband’s gonna be looking up from Hell and jerking off to me kicking your ass.

Rebecca Brookes, Rebecca Filth, 'Don' Hendrix, Felix Hartley and marielacorriveau have spoken. It’s such good shit!

OWA Promos - Page 15 G1Ql7av
 
Ruri Kuzunoha sat at her desk in the extra bedroom of the apartment that she shared with her half-brother. Normally when she would sit here, he would be behind her playing one of his guitars late into the night, but tonight that wasn’t the case. He had been gone for a couple days, leaving the apartment quiet and her without any background music to keep her mind from racing while she drew. Which is why she found herself now staring at a barely started sketch. She had started this drawing weeks ago, before her last appearance for OWA at Pluto’s Gate, and she’s barely touched it since.
 
“Man, it’s probably a good thing that I don’t take commissions.”
 
She thinks to herself before letting out a sigh. She stared at the primary sketch of a girl or well, the blank anatomy of a girl, sitting with her back against a wall and bits her bottom lip a bit. Drawing has always been a way of meditation for her, ever since she was young, and she really should at least get this initial sketch finished, but looking at it here in this quiet, empty apartment, the incomplete piece of work was resonating with her more than it probably should.
 
“I feel like this drawing; rough and faded, just a bunch of undefined shapes and lines. I am an unfinished sketch. While I have the final image in my mind of what I should be, all that I have to show is just a structure and an outline. Nothing about me is worth any merit until the linework is complete.”
 
Ruri says softly as she brushes her hand across the drawing. She looks at her cup of pencils next to the table and considers picking up a pencil, but ultimately decides against it.
 
“I’ve been here in OWA for almost a year… and I remember back in January I was welcomed with open arms, everyone was excited to see me finally come in. They were hyped to see what I could do as a part of the Odyssey roster after my run in both ALPHA and Strong Style Wrestling. And there were so many things that I wanted to accomplish… and still want to. But after my initial introduction, I have had so many different false starts and every time I end up just tripping over my feet and falling flat on my face.”
 
There is a pause as she grimaces a bit.
 
“And if I’m being honest, I know the exact moment where everything shifted for me. It was back when I got a chance to challenge Rebecca Filth’s unstoppable run as the Openweight Champion. I went into that match confident in myself and my abilities, but just like every other woman who stood in the ring against her during that reign, I lost. But… unlike the rest of the women she defended against, I never really recovered from that loss.”

 
“Sure I’ve had chances to get going again, but from the Clash of the Titans to my last two attempts at the Women’s World Tag Team Championships… but each time I ended up fucking up. I really should be out of chances, but this coming Odyssey, I’ve been given another chance. This time, I am competing to get myself another shot at what has now been renamed the Sparks Championship, that is now wrapped around Felix Hartley’s waist. All that I gotta do is make sure that I can outlast and outsmart fourteen other women in a battle royale. No big deal right? Simple, easy… just a walk in the park…”

 
Ruri pauses…
 
…remaining silent for a good half a minute…
 
…before she shrugs her shoulders and sighs.
 
“…Fuck me… that’s a helluva lot easier said than done isn’t it? The ring is going to filled with women who are beyond talented, and whatever you want to call Dr. Hastings… so I know that the odds of me winning this match is slim. But I know what it would mean to me if I am able to walk out of Greece having secured myself this shot against Felix. After all of the stuttering at the staring line… after every single time that I’ve fucked up… after going through the worst year of my goddamned life, having people constantly tell me variations of the same things: that without The Corsairs that I’m nothing… that I’ve never been good enough to be here in OWA… that I’m a waste of a roster spot… a piece of worthless junk that should have been thrown out with the trash a long time ago… I finally was able to prove them wrong. Winning this match would mean more to me than any of the other women can even comprehend.”

 
“Sure, Devi Krysis has a chip on her shoulder going into this and the rest of us apparently need to be worried because she’s in a bad mood after losing the Goddesses Championship to Hana at Boiling Point… and she’s looking to use this match as a springboard in order to get herself back in the championship picture. But I really don’t care how pissed off she is, because getting pissed off about losing a match doesn’t mean shit. Fuck, look at how many matches I’ve lost… you don’t think I’m furious Devi? Especially ever since our match in Osaka where you beat me, I’ve been considered the fucking biggest joke on Odyssey by half the fucking roster. The chip on your shoulder is nowhere as bad as mine Devi. You’ve had your shine, essentially at my expense, so you can fuck off, while I get mine.”


 
She pauses, bites her lip and hits the drafting table with a closed fist.
 
“Honestly, if we’re talking about people who can fuck off, BIANCA can fuck right off the edge of my non-existent dick. And, most of that has to do with who she runs around with over in Japan, but still. For someone who holds herself as this superior athlete, The Top Tier… she has done fuck all here as of late to really prove that, outside of play cat and mouse with Ellie Quinn. And because of that, you lost your shot at Felix already. You may be one of the big bads in JET BIANCA, but on Odyssey that ain’t the case. Nah, you’re the Top Tier in name only. In reality, you’re down here on the bottom shelf with me. The only difference, is that I’m actually going to try to drag myself up out of it, instead of hoping that my reputation will do the work for me.”

 
“For Yuna, I have to admit, as much as I don’t like you, and think you’re a bit of a bratty little bitch, I did think we worked pretty well as a team back at Pluto’s Gate. Sure, you were the one who lost us the match, but you know, whatever man. You’re probably going to blame me, call me a shitty wrestler for it. Whatever, keep your spite. It’s all you got going for you anyway.”

 
“Speaking of losing to Liz and Alyssa, both Izumi and Skylar are both gonna be in this match, and I’d figured that they’d still be trying to get their hands on them. After all, they did try to kill one of them, and the other Liz took out for no reason other than because she’s a bitch who should be choked out with a chain. I don’t know. Maybe Skylar thought that she’d be better off trying to branch off from Tarah since she’s competing to get in the chamber match… either way, it doesn’t matter. I can’t let either of them get over on me… I can’t let anyone do that… I just…”

 
She pauses for a second, as her eyes catch a business card pinned to her desk, belonging to her psychologist giving her the means to shift subject to another opponent.
 
“You know, not too long ago, I finally bit the bullet and actually sought out psychiatric help. Mind you, it wasn’t like I had much of a choice, but still… once I actually sat down in my doc’s office and started talking with him… it felt right. So, the thought that one of my opponents is a psychologist, is kind of funny… at least to me. But then when I see what kind of person you are Doc Hastings, and any humor in this disappears. You put on this air of wanting to make the world a better place, to help it… like any good doctor would, but you’re a snake-oil salesman. What you actually are is just another right-wing political zealot, blind to what the real world actually is, because you’ve spent your life behind gilded walls afforded to you by generational wealth. Which allowed you to get your ivy league degree and the privilege to preach about your idea of what a better world would look like, spouting out the same buzzwords thought up in a conservative marketing agency, that people of your ilk paid for forty fucking years ago. So go fuck off, Doc… and take your shitty books with you.”

 
“Then on the opposite side there’s that new girl, Dani Fatale. If you were to paint a picture of everything that Doc Hastings probably hates, it’d be her. She looks cool as hell, and is the kind of girl who’d throw a brick in the window of any asshat who’d hold her down. The kind of person you’d want to go out and set fire to a monument with, ya know? But while I appreciate qualities like that in a woman, one thing I want to really see is whether or not her moniker is gonna hold up. Because I can remember when a rebellious punk from LA came into Odyssey, and everyone got hyped as shit. Then reality struck, she fell from the pedestal she was placed on and she has been falling ever since. It’s what happened to me, and trust me Dani it can happen to you in an instant.”

 
“Rin Asakura, I… you know, the shit that you and your dad have done, are doing, and will continue to do and all the bullshit that spews out of your mouths make me ashamed to be Japanese sometimes. It’s disgusting… like fuck… even the fox news panelist we’re wrestling against wouldn’t be caught dead saying or doing shit that your family has done. It’s xenophobic and idiotic, and for your sake… for your sake Rin, I really hope multiverse theory is a thing and you grow up to be a better person than the disgusting woman who I’m about to share the ring with. And on top of that, I hope that Josie is able to finish what she started at Boiling Point, cause we both know she aint gonna be leaving you alone until she takes everything she’s owed from you.”

 
“And then finally there’s Bad Meets Evil… the big menacing vampire Violet and her little pet witch Marie. Trust me, I get why the two of you are in this match, just like everyone else on the damned roster, you want to see Thotessy fall apart. The Powerfuck Girls have run roughshod all over this brand, and once The Banshee finally stripped Filth of the one thing she didn’t want to ever take off, that cracks finally stated to form, and the two of you were right by her side to back her up. Now, you’re looking to do the same to Felix’s reign… and I’ll even be completely honest, the two of you, probably are two of the best candidates right now to do so. Whether they’d like to admit it, you two have frightened Felix already and if one of you were to win this match and stand across form her, there’s a damned good chance that you’d beat her for the Sparks Championship, but like I keep saying… I can’t let that happen. Marie, you’re going to have to sling ever single spell in your spellbook at me, and Violet is going to have to literally drain me dry before I’d let that happen…”

 
“Fuck it, no…. none of you… NONE OF YOU understand what this means for me, none of you understand the pressure, the weight that I have bearing down on me, knowing that if I am not able to win this, I might as well just pack my fucking bags, go find whatever dark hole that Llorona has decided to make her nest for our tour here in Greece, give her a handshake and walk off into the sunset never to be seen again… hell if any of you had your way, I wouldn’t be afforded that because none of you think that I am even worth it. After all, I am just a basket case… a pathetic menhera who is barely able to keep herself together to come to shows… I’m just a lost cause who can’t find any footing here at all because she can’t handle being by herself… I’m just a shell of what I used to be, a wounded animal that should be taken out back and shot… I get it. I’m only in this match so that I can be a body for one of you to throw over the top rope and look good…”

 
“I’m the biggest goddamned fuck up that Odyssey and the entirety of all of OWA has ever seen! I get it! But you know what, I’m gonna prove all of you wrong. If you want to win this, then all of you fuckers are going to have to damned near kill me if you want me out of this match, because this fuck up is going to defy every single one of you… Whether you want to believe it or not, I want this more than anyone in this match… I want to finally know what it feels like to not just be an outline… to be more than just primary sketch… I want my linework to be complete, and to be shaded in and full of color…”

 
She pauses for a second.
 
“It’s do or die for me… I will be the number one contender to the SPARKS Championship, because I have to be.”
 
Ruri rips the drawing off of the drafting table and walks away, leaving her room empty and quiet.

Re: OWA Promos
Post November 17th 2022, 11:40 pm by Rebecca Brookes
No sound to help us tune in, nothing to help us become adjusted to the surroundings, but just a white wall and seated along the floor was Rebecca Brookes—head lowered and not even glancing upward toward the camera recording her. She sighed, and began to shake her head.

“I question myself time and time again, yet I find no answers at the end of the tunnel.”

“If you asked me at the beginning of the year that any of this would’ve happened, I wouldn’t know what to tell you. This time last year, I was on the high of my whole career and walking out looking as tough as ever after almost coming home with the Women’s World Championship, almost becoming the top woman on this brand and holding the biggest prize I could’ve ever held in my whole career. And yet, and fucking yet, I fucked it all up at the beginning of this year and I could never ever find my own footing and I could never ever find some momentum to actually do something with my time here back on Odyssey. There’s no denying the fact that this was all my fault, a small injury took me out and I never recovered or bounced back the same ever again.”

“Asking myself the same question from time to time, ‘is there any reason to have come back at all? The only thing you want to achieve is to show you can become the OWA Women’s World Champion like you should’ve been almost a whole calendar year ago.’ That was the truth, it was the only bit of truth I had left hanging by a string. I couldn’t do much about it then, I can’t do much about it now, actually, the dream is nothing short of dead as it stands right now.”

“Although, what I never expected to come was a shot at the Sparks Championship—and at Felix Hartley, though, I don’t blame the decision considering the recent showings of opponents that she’s had to deal with. But the fact of the matter remains, it’s a chance to redeem myself and to rebuild myself from the ground up. But to be expected to run the field here with just fourteen other women. Take a look around at the field, think about some of those who are here, and it makes me wonder one thing.”

“The fuck am I here for?”

Rebecca lifted her head up, finally allowing the camera to get a glimpse of her face. Though, there’s a look of disgust along her face—something wasn’t right about her, something wasn’t good about her at all. For the first time ever, there wasn’t a bubbly sparkle in her eye unlike beforehand.

“Think about all of the times that I’ve done something to ‘save’ this brand and yet, I get no respect because of it. Think about the amount of times I tried to be someone, ended up becoming the big name, and get shot the fuck down because I lost a couple of times. Fuck’s that all about, huh? Just because Llorona is still bitchy about me beating her ass over and over again? Yeah, I see how it is.”

“A chance at Felix Hartley and a chance at the Sparks Championship—man, I don’t give a single fuck about any of this at all, I’m better than this, I’m better than this whole ‘division’ going on, and this is where I’m placed? There’s qualifiers happening right now for the Promethean Chamber and I’m stuck here, with the little stupid enhancements and whatnot, whilst others get to call their shot and do something—Tarah’s not even here two months, done fuck all, and still gets there. For what, exactly? Legacy reasons? The fuck does she think she is? Nasir Moore?”

“You’ll act like I’m fucking insane or some dumb shit but I’ve simply had enough. I’m tired of the same shit over and over again, I’ll happily take the fucking loss over and over again if it makes people feel a little bit happier about themselves, but that’s it—done playing up to people’s standards, I make my fucking own. When it comes to what happens in the next upcoming weeks, I don’t know exactly what’s going to change but I can assure you as to who’s about to.”

“Me.”

“And unless someone’s got an issue with that, then let them come my way—I’ll happily show them how shit works around here—and no more of this disrespectful bullshit you all put me through time and time again. Tired of the shit, tired of the same old crap that comes out of everyone, I’m done.”

“And so will the rest of Odyssey be too.”

She began to shake her head, debating inside of her head if she wants to speak further on—but, as she stands up, she clearly chooses not to. Rebecca walks right out of the shot and lets the feed cut away from the white to the black screen.

It’s a cold, dark and rainy night outside of the Dampshaw Estate. Inside, on the main floor, Jimmy Pridmore and the newly unmasked Hatchet Gully are standing in the foyer. 




Pridmore is pacing around while Gully stands still, not taking his eye off the window. Jimmy and Hatchet can hear Reginald thrashing around in the floor above them. Hatchet and Jimmy look at each other. Jimmy looks concerned where Hatchet has no emotion on his face.


“He’s been up there a really long time.” Jimmy says. “How long has it been now?”


Hatchet shrugs.


"I don't know. A couple hours?" Hatchet replies. "We're just gonna have to wait until he calms down before we do anything else."


"What if he doesn't calm down? What if he keeps going on like this forever?!" Pridmore exclaims as he paces back and forth.


"He will. He just needs to get it out of his system." Hatchet says.




Jimmy continues to pace back and forth before shaking his head.


“We should check on him, don’t you think?”


Hatchet looks at Jimmy: “I'm telling you…he'll be fine. But if you want to, go ahead. I’ll just stay keeping watch."


Jimmy stops pacing around as he moves towards the stairs: “I can't stand it anymore! I have to do something about it right now! I have to do something before he loses control completely!"


Jimmy runs up the spiral staircase as Hatchet rolls his eyes as he stays at the window. Jimmy gets to the room where he knows Reginald is, seeing a dim light from underneath the crack in the door. He knocks, but enters after not receiving a response. As he enters the room, he can see a large assortment of candles on the floor, some half burnt out. There are broken pieces of furniture strewn across the ground next to the bed. A small pile of blankets lies in one corner of the room with another pair of boots on top. Reginald is sitting cross legged on the floor, shirtless. His head is tilted back and his hands over his mouth.


"Umm....Reginald?" Jimmy says, his voice shaking. "Are...are you ok?"


There's no response. He slowly walks towards Reginald and kneels down next to him: "What happened here?"


"Forth from my far
And darksome cell
Or from the deep
Abyss of Hell"


Jimmy stands up quickly as Reginald continues his chant:


"Mad Tom is come
To view the world again
To ease his poor
Poor distempered brain"


Jimmy starts realising what Reginald is talking about and a slow smile creeps across his face. Reginald continues speaking in riddles:


“Pluto laughs and Persephone is glad
To see poor naked Tom O‘Bedlam mad”


Reginald raises his head and slowly turns it towards Jimmy. He blinks heavily and stands up.




“I’m ready now.” Reginald speaks, with no emotion or tone to his voice. “The party’s over.”


Reginald then walks out of the room without another word. He begins walking down the spiral staircase and meets Hatchet at the window. They stare out into the darkness as the rain falls harder against the glass.


“You had one job, Hatchet.” Reginald says after a long silence: "You had one job at Boiling Point and you failed. I was supposed to walk out of there as World Champion and what happened? They unmasked you. They showed your visage to the whole world. Did you hear what people are saying? ‘Who’s Hatchet Gully? Never heard of him. Just another no name crony for Reginald to throw in front of people.’ Is that the sort of reputation you want to leave behind? Is that the sort of reputation you think The New Dawn wants?”


Hatchet remains silent as Reginald continues:


"You better look at me in the goddamned face when I speak to you. You’re my brother, Hatchet. The three of us are family. But I cannot allow this bullshit to continue. You embarrassed me.”


Reginald quickly turns to Jimmy who’s now standing at the bottom of the staircase.


“And you. You embarrassed me too. What the hell were you both doing? You couldn’t fight off Bishop when it was three against one?”


Jimmy looks down, but says nothing.


"I should have had that title!" Reginald yells as he shakes his head: "I should have had it ages ago!”


Reginald puts his head into his hands and takes a deep breath.


"It just isn't fair." He mutters to himself.


The two men stare out through the window at the pouring rain. The clouds look like they're about to burst with the amount of water they've been holding onto all day long. Reginald grits his teeth and looks at Hatchet.


“Is this what it’s going to be like? This sort of nonsense over and over and over again?”


Hatchet stays silent.


"I will not let you do that anymore!" Reginald says as he points an accusing finger at Hatchet. "So maybe I have to take you outside and teach you a lesson?”


Hatchet finally breaks his gaze from the window and gets right in Reginald’s face. Though Hatchet is an inch and a half or so shorter than Reginald, he still outsizes him by quite a margin. Reginald backs up a bit, putting his hands up and smiling.


“Ok ok. Wait a minute.” He chuckles: "Let’s calm down. The three of us have been together for a while now. We’re the Death Graps Tag Team Champions. We don’t need to be bickering like children.”


Hatchet puts his hands on his hips and glares back at Reginald.


"We’re better than this, brothers." Reginald says as he sighs again and shakes his head. “Here’s what I want. I have a match coming up on Kingdom against some young boy of Emmanuelle’s Taniguchi Sena. I’m familiar with Emmanuelle. We’ve had our battles in Wrestleworld. I’d be open to wrestling her again. But for them to put me in the ring with this…this mere trainee. It’s a slap in the face.”


Jimmy nods his head in approval.


“This is what you’re both going to do.” Reginald continues: "You're going to stay backstage during our match. I don’t want or need your help Sunday. Sena wants to play with the sharks, so I’m going to give him the beating of his short life. I’m going to make Emmanuelle watch me break and destroy her little toy. It is going to be very, very bad for this poor bastard and I want him all to myself. Understand?”


Jimmy and Hatchet nod their heads yes as Reginald glares at them with a stern look on his face.


“Now, while I’m in the process of shattering the body and spirit of this rookie Tanguchi, if, say, something happened to our exalted World Champion backstage, forcing him to not be able to spew his asinine opinions on commentary during the main event? That wouldn’t be the worst thing that’s ever happened, now would it?”


The two men remain silent. Reginald then walks over to the window again, looking out into the night. He closes his eyes for a moment before opening them once more and staring directly into Jimmy's eyes: "You have one job."


Jimmy nods his head.


"You got it, Reginald.” Jimmy says agreeably. “Anything you need from us, you got. Right, Hatch?”
Hatchet sighs heavily and shakes his head.


"Yeah man…whatever you need." Hatchet says.


Reginald turns his gaze towards Hatchet: "I know that look on your face, brother." He says as his voice lowers to a whisper. "That look on your face tells me you're not taking this seriously at all. And you better start treating this like you give a damn. This is beyond anything that could be more important in this world. Shape up or I will have to get my hands dirty again. Do we understand each other?"


Hatchet slowly nods his head yes: "Yes."


"Good!" Reginald says before turning to Jimmy. "You too."


Pridmore looks back at Reginald and signals that he understands.


Reginald turns and heads down the spiral staircase: "We'll talk later about it more. Right now I need to train for Kingdom."


Pridmore follows behind as Hatchet stays at the window, looking out into the pouring rain.


"Hey Hatch…thanks." Pridmore says.


Hatchet sighs heavily: "Whatever."

OWA Promos - Page 15 Felixbanner
OWA Promos - Page 15 Thot

The scene opens with Felix Hartley, her body splayed across the bed inside her room at the Thotyssey mansion. She’s wearing a matching nude laced bra and pantie set with a garter belt. Her hair looks tousled.

There she is.

The woman gifted with the ability of saying so many words…without actually saying anything at all. The woman who keeps the thesaurus in business. The woman who in one breath talks about honour, loyalty, finding grace in loss… And in another will talk about her love for violence, vengeance and being turned on by the metallic, slick feeling of her opponents blood on her skin. It just depends on what face she needs to put on that day. What audience she has. What the situation calls for. She calls it adaptation... But I call it fear. Inconsistency. Directionlessness. A woman clearly so removed from somebody she still wishes she could be, that she’s struggling on a daily basis with the realization of who she’s slowly becoming. Much like the rest of her accomplishments, it’s nothing but a mask. An adorably transparent facade that does absolutely nothing but confirm my suspicion that our darling used-to-be-favourite is in fact deeply threatened by my mere presence.


We hear a low grumble next to Felix. Startled, she glances over at a sleeping Jeff X in her bed, the covers barely draped across his naked body. The ever-charitable Felix, consoling him after the loss of his best friend, covers him up before grabbing her robe to slip over her shoulders.

It’s obvious. You spent so much of these past few days trying to play the role of the cool, calm, collected, wise wizard at the end of the yellow brick road. But then you collapsed. All I had to do was sit here and watch you writhe under my words alone before you cracked. When you’re sitting alone at night thumbing through different ways to issue the exact same threat, do you ever realize how inconsistent you are? Does it ever occur to you that I never needed to have the ‘decorated’ history that you’ve had in OWA to know who Alyssa Grace is within the first few hours of knowing I was pit against you? It’s because you’re not unique. You’re not special. Your types are a dime-a-dozen in this industry. If and when we strip away each of our personalities, qualities, achievements…the point remains that your approach changes drastically based on who your opponent is and how bruised your ego is that week. Because you’re lost. The real reason you should be grateful for the opportunity to be a tag-team wrestler is not because it’s a free chance at revival for your dwindling successes, but because it’s given you a chance to rebrand unnoticed. The chance to latch yourself onto a better wrestler. You’re not Alyssa Grace, you’re Liz Karlson lite. You’re not this honourable ‘pillar’, you’re Britney in 2007. You’re realizing that you used to be somebody who cared about revolutionizing the world and being proud of yourself, and now you’re taking pages from the Unabomber just so you can get a reaction from the same people who’ve relegated you to the bottom-tier. Tragic.

It’s why there’s a part of you that wants me to win. Because what would you do if I didn’t? You and I both know you aren’t World Champion material - you’ve proven it. Either it’s unattainable for you to begin with, or you lose it before they even get to engrave your full name. Picture it. Some guy in the back with his safety glasses on going A…L…Y…S…S…-fuck. Backspace. Backspace. Backspace.

Right, though? Because what would you do, for real? You’d make your way into the Promethean Chamber and have to make your way past the rest of Thotyssey. I mean, say what you will about ‘easy’ wins because of the support I have in my corner, but it doesn’t change the fact that all the Tag Championships manage to symbolize at the moment is that you can no longer run through the ‘midcard opponents’ I’ve demolished prior to you without a partner. I imagine that when you tried to discredit me by saying I’ve only fought midcard competition, you forgot that those are the only people on the roster you’ve managed to beat recently.

Only difference is, I’m the only one who actually pinned Marie. I’m also the exclusive reason she has an ultimate finisher. I’m also the only one to kick out of it. But celebrate your co-victory, if that helps you feel relevant still.

I empathize with your position, though. Because how fucking incredible would it feel for you to be the only person on the Odyssey roster to hold a win over my head? Surely it’d be the most notable thing you’ve done in your singles career in the last few years. Because we know how much you love listing accomplishments with more merit than they hold. How unfair it is that I wouldn’t be able to do the same. Touting a win over you, while impressive to some, credits you way more than you deserve.

That’s what kills me about this air that you have about you. Like I need to prove anything to you. Telling me that you want ‘more’ from me. It’s very sweet that you believe there’s enough of a power dynamic between us. The backhanded condescension that you probably felt would hit home hard. The Alyssa Grace way of saying - without actually saying it - that you needed your moment to feel ‘on top’ when that’s a place you ain’t been for a hot minute. I’ll tell you what you’re going to get. You’re going to get the Sparks Champion that held this belt longer than Liz Karlson did. The one that unified Championships. The one that has yet to be defeated and couldn’t be assed to even pretend to see you as the threat to my legacy that you want to be. Biggest competition of my career? Didn’t they say that about BIANCA too? Let me guess, y’all two are these new ‘cornerstones’? The same cornerstones that went ghost after I beat her until she became part of the canvas? Sure thing.

It’s an ongoing battle to determine who really is the face of Odyssey, isn’t it? Everyone seems to think it’s them for some reason. Even stranger, you seem to think it’s you for some reason. It quite literally couldn’t be. Thotyssey is all that’s been on people’s lips for months now. That’s what’s really destroying you, isn’t it? You’re humble in loss but what boils your blood is attention. You’re no longer worried about being ‘unbeatable’, because you’ve been beaten. What you’re scared of now, is being glossed over. Forgotten. No longer in the conversation. Admit it, the minute I started getting attention… the minute I started knocking every obstacle in my way down, the minute I started turning heads when people realized I wasn’t just a ‘wish-dot-com Rebecca Filth’... Shit changed for you, didn’t it? You hated that Rebecca was around because she was going to usurp your place on Odyssey. You couldn’t do anything in OWA without hearing her name. Used to be you. Now it isn’t.

Because now it’s me. And you’re furious. Your name has been in people’s mouths infinitely less than it ever has been. Promethean Chamber is your last-ditch effort to change that. God, we love a comeback story. But this one ends a little differently because I’m your opponent. The same person that has been celebrated since my Championship win at Final Destination after only four months of being on Odyssey. You wouldn’t be sitting on your high horse without any reason if you didn’t believe that I, too, am your biggest competition to date. But saying that out loud would mean one too many L’s for you this year, wouldn’t it? So you talk about my ‘audacity’. You spend time building yourself up. Talking about how you’re familiar with loss only to lessen the blow when it happens to you this weekend. You don’t have any realevidence that you’re any better than me as it stands, so you paint the picture like Van Gogh’s retarded step-child of Felix Hartley: the vapid flash-in-the-pan who will inevitably crumble in the hands of Alyssa Grace.

But I’m Picasso with the way I distort faces.

You forget that I’ve existed long before OWA. I don’t expect you to know. I don’t expect it to matter to you. It only matters when you assume that just because I’ve skyrocketed to the top in record time here that I don’t know what loss is. It definitely works with the version of me in your head, the one that’s shallow, inexperienced, and all of the other attributes you awarded me like you’re playing mental 2K22. But you’re missing a vital piece of my puzzle.

I’m literally fucking here because I’ve lost.

I sure as shit haven’t been defeated. But I’ve lost. However I admire your creative ability to minimize me based on the simple fact that I just don’t find merit in losing. There’s no growth. It’s not that deep. Either you’re better than the person standing across from you, or you aren’t. It’s not poetic. It’s not beautiful. There’s nothing to learn from it. It’s exactly what losers want you to believe after they’ve lost. It’s the only plausible way to spin it, but all it is, is a web of projection and lies and self-soothing to protect your ego. It’s no wonder you’re so accustomed to it.

But true loss? Guttural, heart-wrenching loss? My entire OWA career to date has been one long journey through the steps of grieving the murder of my mentor. My best friend. Somebody that is long dead, buried, and in the ground. Somebody who saw the potential in me years ago and guided me through all of my Championship wins prior to this one. Somebody who sat on the cold, concrete floor of the EAW locker room with me and watched me cry as I cradled the New Breed Championship in my arms. Somebody who saw me more naked than any man has. Somebody who saw the ugliest depths of my soul and urged me to use wrestling as the soothing balm to the trauma I’ve been a magnet for. I couldn’t give a fuck about wrestling. Understand that. This is purely me proving to myself, and to her, that I am exactly what she knew I could be. The closure we both need. Doesn’t take a genius to see that that loss motivated me to elevate my career to a level that you’ve clearly lost the touch to compete with.

So yeah, I have lost. I just don’t use it as my entire personality arch as an excuse to spew pseudo-prophetic bullshit like I’m Drake sitting on the CN Tower.

And there it is. The harsh realization that every version of me that you prepared for is incorrect; inexistent. The picture you painted serves the same purpose as the many different and equally embarrassing you've managed to convince me that you’re comfortable stewing in your inevitable loss this weekend. The realization that somebody like me doesn’t need to get comfortable with the idea of loss because I was never worried about not having the tools to send you into oblivion with in the first place. The realization that everything that has destroyed Alyssa Grace in the past, every battle that has withered your soul piece-by-piece, has simply rolled off my back because I’m stronger than you. My momentum is limitless. Of course you’ve been moulded by yourself and yourself alone, because I wasn’t around to invent the mould yet.

So enjoy your remaining days in the ‘circle of the elite’. Because come the Promethean Chamber, it will be a triangle. Rebecca Filth…Angelina Magnum…

And Felix Hartley.

OWA Promos - Page 15 Zelina-vega-wwe

I’m going to be completely transparent in the fact that I am not at all interested in mincing words with 14 women who have zero importance to me whatsoever. There are far more pressing matters and far more important uses of my precious time then to entertain the notions of all these people that have nothing to offer me in terms of credentials or any semblance of long-term importance. Honestly, the fact that I am involved in this match at all is tone-deaf to my own long-term ambitions. There is no reason for me to be emotionally invested at all. Especially knowing the fact that I’m going to just get screwed out of it anyway, like every other thing I try to do for this brand, seems like there’s always some invisible hand trying to fucking sweep the carpet out from under me. So I’m not really willing to give the satisfaction of saying I give a shit about this match at all. I don’t. I don’t care about this match, I don’t care about the title opportunity at the sports championship, and I sure as hell don’t care about any single person in this match at all. By the end of the year, 10 of them are gonna be wished the best in their future endeavors anyway. Most of them already have a foot out the door as it is. Do you want to know the cold hard truth? Do you wanna know why I sound so defeated after what happened at boiling point? Because it’s fucking typical. I outshine, but the result has me get outshined. I put in the hard work, I put in the effort, I have an actual goal that isn’t just “hold title look pretty”, And what do I have to show for all those months of effort? Do you know what I have to show for putting every single bird and that has been handed to me on my back, put on a smile, and carried it all only to have some third-party idiot come in and trip me just before I can get to the finish line? Nothing. Absolutely fucking nothing. Alyssa Grace keeps getting to think that she gets the better of me when she keeps getting a helping hand to keep her spot. Every single fucking time. She has to stay on a pedestal she doesn’t fucking deserve, Liz Karlson despite offering absolutely fucking nothing to the build whatsoever, gets to sit right beside her. I wasn’t even the one pending that match, yeah I’m wasting my time here instead of being put in a chamber qualifying match, something of far more interesting value. So fuck it, I’ll do what I’ve always been asked to do. I’ll put on my ring gear. I’ll make myself the best-looking person out there aesthetically. And then I’ll just throw myself over the top rope and save myself the hassle of getting fucked out of it anyway. Because there isn’t an outcome of this match that benefits my goal, nor the Nova Empire. So you can all have it, have fun.

But while I am here, I’m not one to really waste afforded time or a platform to say my mind, I may as well address the very few people that decided to put my beautiful name in their ugly mouths.

Maybe I should start with this Dr Bethany Hastings that, impressively, has a lot to say but absolutely no idea what the fuck she’s talking about. I’m not even bothering to listen to the part she said about other people, the parts she dedicated specifically to me has no comprehension of who I am, where I came from, or what I do. She just said nothing for a lot of words and that’s quite telling of a failed doctor in her field really. They really do just give out doctorates to anyone nowadays. You can tell she wasn’t a surgeon, because she couldn’t even put a scalpel to my career, couldn’t put it under her professional lens – just looked at the Wikipedia article and called it a day. Prescribe me whatever you take because it’s a skill to sound convincing when you are woefully and absolutely unconvincing, quack. Who hurt you? Which tycoon bought your little armchair doctors firm and demolished it for a lemonade stand? Given how confident you are in such arbitrarily wrong statements, it was probably me. I wouldn’t be surprised either, I think the only thing I hate more than Alyssa Grace and her Neanderthal sidekick right now are the unenlightened in the medical field. Let’s entertain the very few things you believe for a second; you assume what I as a former entrepreneur do, my motivations, the scapegoats that — look around me — I don’t have to throw under the hypothetical bus when I fail, and speak to me of privilege. Should I have credited you for the idea? Because if we analyze each other so skin deep, how untouchable do you feel of the medical field is that you, by proxy, can feel the need to talk like you are so untouchable? Because I rebuilt a broken-down human being, at the very bottom of her luck, contemplating the very end of her life – and I rebuilt her. I paid to have tissue repaired, muscles rejuvenated, psyche repaired, I paid for a monster to be reborn. You probably prescribe somebody the wrong kind of medication aimed to fix their depression and the lake probably turned up dead the next day. But hell, you technically did your job. You offered medical advice even if it was wrong, and what does it matter if it cost somebody their life? Doctors hardly ever get to see the repercussions of their fuck ups anyway. So it must be incredibly nice for you knowing that whenever I make a mistake, I lose a lot. But whenever you make a mistake, it’s not malpractice if they have a pre-existing condition that could’ve led to a different result. An unforeseen circumstance. You’re walking on thin glass, throwing stones at people sweetheart.

How about next time, don’t peddle bullshit armchair doctor insight. Actually research something you speak on.

Speaking of perpetual failures, let’s address the person that’s a failure to her entire bloodline talking about me about being hopeless. Let’s talk about Rin Asakura, someone who has been here for such a long time yet has accomplished nothing. Absolutely nothing. I can speak to the pain that can cause, I lost everything as an Arceneaux as a product of this industry to the point it brought financial collapse to the empire I built in the world of my family name. You just can’t do anything with your family name. The Asakura name is so washed that even past versions of your father are coming back to tell him that he’s washed. If you are such an invite and time-traveling entity, you sure know how to come back with so much knowledge and not be able to use any event to benefit you or your family. It’s awfully telling that you could’ve given a much more fitting contribution by going back in time and kicking your own father in the balls so he can’t have you to further drag the name down. The only thing you’ve accomplished on Odyssey was getting Nami on your side, to which a weak-willed woman attracting another weak-willed woman is not exactly a successful contribution to… well, anything. But I was a waste of Tarah Nova’s return? You stupid bitch, I’m the reason she’s back. I rebuilt her, and sure my reasons may have been selfish, but her reasons for wanting to be rebuilt was selfish. I can at least admit that. I’m not completely unaware of what I say and what I do. But just like Bethany, you critique my life before wrestling because let’s be honest, you have nothing else. You don’t know anything. If you are from the future, or a sign of what the future is like, then I’m also willing to admit my entire life mission is wrong. I should go outside and plant as many trees as possible, dig out as much trash from the seas as I can, I should single-handedly fix the issues of global warming so the future does it produce a miserable piece of shit like you to come back and waste time in the present. And you’re right, I don’t care enough about being a wrestler. That isn’t who I am. That is it my love. I came back with the motivation of revenge and that is a lot longer of a process than I desired but I can tell you one thing; I’ve done more in the time I’ve been back than you have in how many years? You’re just the bubbly, inoffensive, inconsequential Asakura that posts pictures of her bikinis on social media. You have no long-lasting legacy, you have no contribution to your family name. Besides the fact that you have British people thirsting for you, and maybe you should just let one impact your bloodline.

Because you sure as hell aren’t making an impact on it.

Paper Devi probably said something by now; I don’t care. She only ever says the same for things on repeat but she doesn’t have the lethal sparks championship anymore so, there’s less for her to waste words on now. He hasn’t had an original thought in years anyway whatever. She’s just riding the coattails of the Brody Sparks influence, a great woman she not only never met but will never even come close to duplicating no matter how much she tries. Sparking Redemption, LMAO. I’m convinced not a single original thought has ever gone through that brain. Maybe brain is generous, organic engine keeping her drool somewhat in her mouth. She got handed the peak of her career and she dropped it immediately afterward because she just fucking sucks. What else is new?

Dani Fatal is new. Which has been curious as to why she speaks like she understands anything either? Am I meant to be ashamed of the fact that I was able to get to only the second round of the Athena‘s cup? I mean kind of, I’m annoyed to have lost to a bootlicker like Angelina Magnum, But how is somebody so unproven going to talk to me like I am not myself proven? Like I haven’t been a constant thorn in people's sides anywhere on the totem pole of this industry? Is all that you have to weaponise leading into the things that I have done and not the things that you have? That’s pretty telling. Because trust me, people are talking about me and have been either when I was gone. No one knows who the fuck you are. And after this match, that’s not gonna change. People got a point to a body on the floor and wonder not only how did she get there, but who the fuck she is. Then I think a fan just flopped over the railing. Which is kind of appropriate, because you’re speaking like a fan. You’re speaking of somebody who is only watched my failures and think that you could just bring them about so easily. Just as much as a fuck wit as Devi; a lost fan playing the role of a wrestler. Am I just tarnishing one of your childhood favorites careers? Is bwig bwad evil Skywer wuining and tawnishing your widdle idol figwor? Am I tarnishing Tarah Nova? The person that, if I didn’t reach out to help, wouldn’t even be in an OWA ring in 2022? A person that I’ve rebuilt to be the legend that she once was? No, I must be a failure despite the fact that out of the field of former world heavyweight champions and whatever tear championship Liz Karlson is capable of below that, out of that field of four I shined the brightest. Me. I was the one with venom in their words, I was the one with ambition, but yet I’m the one being punished because of the result. That’s just typical. Isn’t that just so tone-deaf of people like you, who don’t see the progress, only the short-term result. This is why people forget you the second you are gone. This is why you will have no lasting impact on this brand, on this industry, because you live for the little moments. I live for the long-term goal. If you’re gonna make it your mission to eliminate me in the battle royal, I’ve already addressed that I don’t personally care about the outcome, but you sure as shit won’t have a say in it.

You may as well get back behind the guardrail, fan girl. I’m not handing out autographs.

I’m sorry, did one-half of the worlds most disaster lesbian tag team just call me a sad state? Did curtain jerker B, without permission of curtains or A, just compare herself to the team of myself and the Hall of Famer? Wow, and I thought Devi had some kind of syndrome. I don’t feel like I need to go back through and say I wasn’t pinned at boiling point, I’m the reason Tarah Nova is back in the first place — I don’t feel I need to defend the fact that I am by no stretch of the imagination some filler, spare partner, an afterthought, to the likes of people that now have to clutch onto Banshees victory to feel that they aren’t the Good Charlotte-listening scrapings at the bottom of the Odyssey talent barrel. Oh no, you and violet are in this together, scary. Like you were in the goddesses championship match, scary. Like you are in this match, scary. You couldn’t beat three other people, you now think you can be thirteen because “we’re in this togayther.” No one is fearing pop goes punk bootleg dollhouse.

You know what, I change my mind. I’m adaptable I’m capable of that. I’m not gonna throw myself out of this battle royal. Hearing the well constructive criticism of my peers, and there are definitely air quotes around the word constructive, I’ve decided that none of these people are worthy. Not a single one of them. I have decided that none of them deserve to even waste a pay-per-view payday challenging for the Sparks championship. None of them are mentally ready for it, none of them have any comprehension of what’s in store for them, they’re all just riding on make-believe hype and revisionist history. If this is the sad state that the championship named after Brody Sparks has to call competition, then it may as well be the only one of the field that actually has a working brain on their shoulders. Not these perennial floppers. Not any of the starry-eyed hopeful losers chasing a dream like they chase their own tail. It may as well be somebody who actually understands the significance of the Sparks namesake.

It may as well be me. Get Fucked.

What Now?


OWA Promos - Page 15 Maxresdefault-17


Marie stands under the lightly falling snow, staring up at the space between two great oaks, older than she can ever expect to grow. There, as if woven by some huge spider, a web extends between the trunks. Hours of work in the cold, her feet bare, head uncovered and hair made wet by flurries, but she barely feels it. She’s had only one thought in her mind since that night, and only one plan. Bind. Bind fourteen women, so she can move ahead, go further, meet her old friend again. So she can make up for her mistakes. 

Failure. So sad, not only did you betray your best friend, but you couldn’t even stick the landing. Not a champion, not an exorcist, barely a witch. 

Marie taps the side of her head, as if hoping she can knock the thoughts out of one ear or the other. She feels the fire, still singing in her chest, heating her fingertips, all that power with nowhere to go, all that volatility and nothing to show for it. Marie kneels down and opens a box, carefully taking out fourteen little dolls, each one a mass of wood and cloth, something between a voodoo doll and something a pioneer child would’ve fashioned to play with on the prairie. 

And now you leave her behind. Poor Hana. Weren’t you going to save her? And now she’s gone, gone, gone. Her husband is dead. You saw it, didn’t you? What Havoc did? And now she’s all alone inside of herself, locked away, while he pilots her, puppets her, and you’ve moved on.

“I haven’t moved on.” Marie answers the empty air. “I will never move on. I will carry Hana’s pain on me forever. I failed, and a man is dead. Do you think I’ll ever forget that? Do you think I will ever forget watching him die from the comfort of my hotel room? No. I didn’t have it in me that night. I let him take her.” 

She begins to go through the dolls, one by one, winding them with twine, weaving them together and hanging them in the web. Marie can’t falter again. This time she needs something she hasn’t used before, hasn’t dug into yet. Something poisonous and destructive, something she never lets out. 

Hatred

BIANCA. Perpetual almost. Sound and fury, signifying fuck all. I don’t really care what you’ve done before, cherie - you haven’t done shit since I’ve been here. It took you so goddamn long to get within arms reach of Felix, and then what? What literally every last one of us expected to happen, happened. I wish I could say otherwise, because Felix and I have a very complicated history, but we all knew what was going to happen when you stepped into that meat grinder. You weren’t surprising, but that’s your tragedy, isn’t it? Predictability. 

Cassie Wu. The fuck do I even say? How do I even approach you? Throwing you out of that ring is a kindness. You don’t have what it takes to stand in the same ring as Felix. You don’t know what’s waiting for you if you outlast all of us. Better to save you the pain, let you live another day without knowing what that’s like. 

Dani Fatale. Cute. Very… pot, meet kettle. You seem to have a lot of great zingers about how Violet and I look, considering you could do a fantastic job modeling Sexy Beetlejuice costumes for Spirit Halloween next year. Look, I get it, you need to come out swinging, need to make your mark. It’s no fun coming in for your big debut and finding yourself just another face in a crowd of 15. I get it. I mean, I don’t. My first match here was a one on one championship qualifier. And then I qualified for a title match again. And then I was up for tag team gold. And then the goddesses championship. So I don’t get it, but I guess I have some sympathy for you. As for your assessment of Vi and me… I expected some shit talk, but it’s really not that impressive coming from you, so I’ll just roll past it. Beatable is relative - I’ve lost, yeah, but I’ve lost to champions, Dani. In fact, I haven’t been beaten by anybody who wasn’t a champion, either at the time, or who became champion by beating me. You’re going to get knocked over the top rope by Tomoni Shinozaki. We’re not the same. 

Dr. Hastings. Moral crusader. Desperate grasping from a dead world. Fall to your fucking pride and your stupid, heedless hate. Tilt at windmills until the day you die in the dark. You think I can’t tell a witch hunter when I see one? As my future opponent for the Sparks Championship would say, you’re not my first. It’s so goddamn funny to hear you talk about the dusty old path Violet and I walk, because let’s get real for a second, yeah? We’re not the past, Beth. We’re the future. We’re young, we’re hungry, we’re powerful, and we are unapologetically who we are. You don’t know a single fucking thing about what it takes to bind something like Havoc. How about this, hein? When you’re through playing doctor with Thotyssey, sit Hana down on your couch and see if you can fix the problem. Because you can sure talk about what I did wrong, but I didn’t see you lift a fucking finger to try and stop the catastrophe that went down at Boiling Point. A little bit of advice for you, doc: don’t talk shit about my relationship with Violet. Because yeah, I would say I’m one of the nicer people on this roster, but Violet? She will absolutely fuck your shit up with no apologies. And another thing, Beth. This moralizing crap? The Satanic Panic was a good forty years ago, my love. We all wanted to free the West Memphis Three, and we love seeing a nice pair of tits on screen. You’re the one who can’t get with the times. 

Izumi Takeda. Sweet little Izumi. I don’t blame you for taking the fight to Alyssa and Liz at Boiling Point. Sometimes blood is the only payment for blood. You did what you thought would bring you retribution -  but it wasn’t enough, was it? Are you satisfied? That even with the element of surprise, you couldn’t end their reign? I know you’re burning to make it right, and in any other setting, you might be able to do it. I might even cheer you on, if I was in the mood to get disappointed that night. But you won’t find redemption here. I won’t be that for you. Je suis désolé

Josie Grey. Ma sœur. Vous êtes sur le point de découvrir la différence entre l'ancienne France et la nouvelle France. I look forward to showing you exactly what the difference is. You know… Quebec French is actually a very old language, older than what you grew up speaking. While Paris reigned as the centre of the cultured world, toppled kings and made fashion and poetry, we stood in the wilderness, holding to the old language, melding with our surroundings. We became fucking feral, babe. I’m you with tusks, come and get it. 

Rebecca Brookes. I’ve heard a lot of very impressive things about you. In fact, everyone seems to know who you are, except me. You’re an unknown. A thing in the ether, maybe a problem, maybe just an obstacle. But that’s really the problem, isn’t it? That I don’t know. Because if you were a problem, I probably would. 

Rin Asakura. Extremist sociopath with a track record of running and hiding at the first sign of someone else’s advantage. Did it not give any of your buddies pause, you fleeing from Josie like a little bitch? Did none of them go, wait a second, if she’s so special, if she’s the pinnacle… why is she freaking out about a little French girl knowing where she works? I have no attachment to the people you’ve hurt, no stake in your game. I just look forward to seeing Josie destroy you. 

Ruri Kuzunoha. What happened? When I started here, I thought Yuna was the pathetic one. I laughed at her nipping at your heels. I made fun of her for it. How the fuck are we here, Ruri? How did you go from being the superior one in a one-sided bullshit blood feud to being a joke, tripping over herself to lose to Alyssa Grace? How did you fall so hard, so fast? Weren’t you somebody once, Ruri?  

Skylar Arcenaux. What a sad state. Violet and I may have lost, but at least we’re in this together. How does it feel? Being so obviously the spare bitch in this partnership, hucked into a Battle Royal while your partner gets marquee billing? I mean, yeah, it’s for a title shot, but let’s not kid ourselves here. You’re not really last woman standing material. You’re a filler bitch, an afterthought, an also-ran. In this Battle Royal, and in your own tag team.

Tomoni Shinozaki. You are…  well, you sure are, cherie

Yuna Kurosawa. My first victory was putting my feet through your chest in Japan, and I hate to say it, but you haven’t made much more of an impact than your moveset that night. What have you done but cheat us out of the tag titles, and then lose? Been a fun diversion for The Power of Incredible Violence? A warmup on their way to dominate a more impactful opponent? I’d say I’ll wait for your answer, but it doesn’t matter. I haven’t taken a single thing you’ve said to heart since you decided to be a two faced bitch and call me a Barbie. Jealousy is a tremendously ugly trait, Yuna, and plastic surgery is not that expensive. If you’re that unhappy, you have my full support in switching things up, but cup size isn’t why any of us are doing better than you. We just know how to out-wrestle you. 

Devi Krysis. Beautiful, brave, stupid Devi. Devi railing against the unfairness of it all. Your courage unwound you like a spool of thread, cherie. You have no one to blame but yourself. You didn’t have to worm your way into our business. Maybe we still wouldn’t have sealed Havoc, but now that monster has a fucking title. Has power in Odyssey. I wish you’d minded your own business, thrashed Gwen, and moved on. Now we’re all in this mess together. 

She stands up, staring at the web she’s created, the interlacing twine holding the dolls in something between spiderweb and hangman’s masterwork, each figure hanging in their place as if trapped, waiting for something vinyl shiny and black as night to devour them. 

The last doll lays in Marie’s barely healed palm, burning like Tam Lin’s coal in the first whisper of dawn. Violet. The name sits in her mind, and she can smell old blood and crushed purple flowers. After a moment, she dabs the doll with vanvan oil and puts it back in the box, safe in the dark.

And then she presses her hand to the web.

Stupid, heedless, weak. You play with things you don’t understand, and others bleed for it. You killed him, and Hana is right behind him. You’ve ruined it all, Marie. Havoc set the fuse for the fucking world, and you couldn’t blow it out. 

Hatred.

The twine behinds to smoke, and then all at once licks of fire shoot along each long thread, turning her shabby brown web into a wall of flame, turning fat lazy snowflakes into steam, catching each doll and blackening the wood and cloth until web has become inferno.

And Marie watches it burn.

OWA Promos - Page 15 1500x510


Devi is meditating and focusing as she prepares for the Battle Royal in the next few days.


Look….


I've been hearing every word of the few competitors in the Battle Royal. As we approached the final days before Odyssey, I feel like I told myself that I'm not in the mood after Boiling Point, but I feel like you ladies took my warning for weakness. Tch, Tch, Tch. After losing the OWA Goddess Championship, I feel like a different person because Havoc got involved and ruined everything that I had to earn for my career. Also Rin Asakura, how many checks you had to write that your mouth can't cashed? Or you were too busy getting your head on Llorona's ass in the past few weeks! And I had admitted Marie Bouchard and Violet Cunningham underestimate Havoc because their magic went array during the 5-Way. But instead talking shit about me couldn't get the job done, I couldn't help but notice that back in Pluto's Gate you can't win on your own damn self! Why? Because you relied on your Golden Shitturds including your fatherly bastard, Arata Asakura to help beat Josie Grey, and I still want answers on why NAMI joined the Golden Shitturds huh? I know I haven't heard anything from her, I try to zoom chat with her, no fucking response! While I'm trying to recollect myself, I focused on the Battle Royal but I promise you that I'll beat you down to get the answers or Josie Grey transformed into that Wolf again.


Dani Fatale sweetheart, I appreciate your compliments and determination going to this Battle Royal. But I don't think you're ready for me or you just made a stupid mistake of talking shit about me. But you know what that's fine I'm down getting over with bunch of newbies showing up here, and making a name for themselves in anyone's expense, but I'm different than any other people Dani, so I willing to forgive what you just said, but I won't forgive that you will be thrown over the top rope. Josie Grey I'm know that you haven't spoken since you transform but I know that you want revenge on Rin Asakura and the Golden Dawn after what they did so I hope..and I really, REALLY hope that you don't getting my way because I want answers on why my best friend NAMI aligned with them.


BIANCA I know that you seem silent but I'm willing to hear you speak but you're too focused for this Battle Royal because I know you want to get your hands on Felix Hartley and her Spark Championship. But your night won't be your night. To Marie Bouchard and Violet Cunningham I'm willing to apologize for Boiling Point after me losing the Goddess Championship, you try your best to ensure that Havoc doesn't control Hana during the 5-Way match. But I'm willing to do that after this Battle Royal but you two I don't see you going after the Sparks Championship! 


Dr. Bethany Hastings PhD, what is she going on about? Spreading nonsense like the president of the United States or something. Elections have been passed long ago, I don't listen to government politics, news media, or any other liberalism, leave that shit at home honey! This is wrestling, PROFESSIONAL wrestling! We don't settle in some shitting politics of yours, when I settle things, I settle with blood, sweat, and tears all over this ring but spreading nonsense like that? Will get yourself eliminated or worse…


I don't know if Yuna Kurosawa, Cassie Wu, Izumi Takeda, Tomomi Shinozaki will have any intention or planning on winning the battle royal. Rebecca Brookes I know that she couldn't get over the loss against Diantha Rosso. But Skylar Arceneaux ever since you got back, nothing changed, you're still just entitled little shit that always gets what you want! You bought out Nakita DuBov and look what got you, Dorado Enterprises imploded right up in your face! I was taken out and put in the ICU, leaving NAMI to end the war between us. And now you're aligned with Tarah Jay Nova of all people, it's bad enough that Azurine Vebbins turned my back and joined you but I digress. But the problem is that you two couldn't keep your promise, you couldn't keep your part of the deal! Where are your OWA Women's World Tag Team Titles? I thought you guys had dealt with Alyssa Grace and Liz Karlson….But you didn't! Tarah Nova deserves better than hanging around a entitled little shit like you Skylar, she's a Hall of Famer, a former World Champion, something that you couldn't accomplish now that Nova has a opportunity to qualify for the Promethean Chamber if she's survived against Liz Karlson good for her, if not…well…I won't probably poke holes cause she's the legend. But still I don't see her cashing out on you Skylar, cause you hired everybody to make sure that you have every success but everything didn't work in your favor didn't it?


Devi opened her eyes and got up in her meditating position.


Regardless how my last title match went, I'll make sure that I'll overcome my mistakes, and overcome the battle royal and then I'll be one step closer to Felix Hartley and her Spark Championship. So try to eliminate me if you dare, but I promise you it'll be a painful night to all of you because this…..


Is my Sparking Redemption!!!

SINK OR SWIM.
VS FELIX HARTLEY, ODYSSEY 002.

Those around me have certainly tried their hardest to shape me into something I do not desire to be. Believe it or not, Felix Hartley isn’t the first individual to proclaim that my career has taken quite the nosedive and that is the sole justification for the once great Alyssa Grace being downgraded to nothing more than a tag team competitor and I highly doubt she’ll be the last to foolishly insult not only me, not only Liz Karlson but the art of tag team wrestling itself. Don’t get me wrong, when Liz and I came together, it was partially out of frustration that our single careers were not heading in the direction we wished them to but ultimately, what’s the harm in trying something new? Isn’t that what you’re supposed to do when shit hits the fan? As genuinely proud as I am to be in the position I am, one half of the inaugural Women’s Tag Team Champions and consequently, cofounder of a rapidly blooming division here on Odyssey, this was not what I envisioned for myself at the beginning of 2022. To more than half of this division, what I have done since the beginning of this year doesn’t matter and I begrudgingly understand that. After all, failure often becomes stains that document the journeys people undertake. Failure has physically manifested itself in the form of scarring on my body that reminds me of what I could not do every single day. Though, despite all of that, I have found a degree of genuine contentment in the middle ground - the space between where fate tries to take me and where I wish to be myself. I am fortunate for it, or at least, I should be. As much as I would have loved to have a place in the chamber guaranteed for me, as much as I would have loved to defend the championship now in possession of the Banshee in the chamber, the reality is I have constantly found myself in wars that picked apart that very idea. Naturally embracing myself, my true self beneath the surface of the Alyssa Grace the world loves has made it easier to accept that I will never quite be the perfect person I envision myself being.

I can’t ignore the failures that have led me to this match with Felix, they have become part of me. They’re stains, they’re scars, they’re memories that are embedded in my being, that can’t be rid of. The very best embrace it all, after all. I consider myself at the very least fortunate that I’ve been able to choose this part of me. The woman who understands the grand consequences of all that she has done, the woman who has come to grips with letting go of who she thought she was. I had a choice and I embraced it. I embraced this imperfect reality of Alyssa Grace because it’s as close to the perfect Alyssa Grace as I will ever get.


But for most, there is no choice.


There is no middle ground.


Their aspirations are a distant dream far beyond their reach. Far beyond being able to become a reality. No matter how much they wish, no matter how much breath they waste trying to convince us that they’re the very being they want the world to treat them as, they remain but a lowly creature whose appearance is not theirs to dictate. It’s disfiguration so utterly horrendous that they can’t even find contentment. They reinvent and reinvent over and over again making meagre moves to try and alter their situation but the damage is simply done. It becomes their legacy, their lasting, quickly fading memory in this world and nothing else. For so many, they become lessons to be remembered at the fork in the road, they become reminders of what is always on the line, in every match, in every moment like this. What’s to be gained, what’s to be lost, the short term and the long. Eventually we forget their names, but we know their stories. We forget their faces, but we know their deaths. Felix, when you look at yourself in the mirror, do you know who you want to be? Do you know what you want to be? I imagine that if I were to ask you this question to your face, you’d scoff, roll your eyes and tell me what everyone says - that you want to be the best. You want to be the baddest. You want to be the face of this company and so on and so on. You should want to be all of those things, in fact, there’d be more of an issue if you didn’t possess those desires. Perhaps, one day, you won’t fall into the category of individuals that I just described, in fact, I actually
hope you do not. I hope that one day you arrive at the destination where you are blessed with the ability to realise that you aren’t as perfect as you believe, that revelation is not as soul crushing as it sounds on paper and in the absolute best case scenario, the loss you’re about to take, your first in a very long time, shall be the catalyst to the you learning the lessons you need to. 


To cut a long story short, you shan’t take a step closer to becoming who and what you wish to be after this weekend is all said and done but the possibility of you bettering from going to war with me, although slim, does exist. 


Before you is a woman who has been shaped, been moulded by herself and herself alone and is now as close to her true self, almost reaching the apotheosis of herself in this world, of her entire career. Before you is a woman who sees the entire road ahead of her with perfect clarity, a woman who knows her destiny. And honestly? You should be fortunate that our names were placed side by side, well, you should be fortunate that the biggest challenge of your career here in OWA so far isn’t one where your championship is on the line. I’d advise you to not waste that blessing but I fear you already have, your ego is just too grand, your arrogance is too thick and you’re blinded by the intoxicating fantasy of defeating someone so high up, someone so primed, so poised to achieve the very thing you wish to achieve for yourself. Complacency is my deadliest enemy but it appears to be a better friend to you than Rebecca Filth and Angelina Magnum. Every match you have had to date, you have been able to walk into knowing that victory is going to be pretty easy to achieve and that in the coming month you’re going to do it all over again, complacency has bent time, it has distorted it into something downright unrecognisable and depending on how you approach this match, opportunities like this will become more and more distant. When nothing in life is guaranteed, you can’t be complacent. You remind me a lot of 2020 me, when I was on the verge of losing the Goddesses Championship, in some ways, and that’s not the compliment people may believe it to be. Part of me was truthfully optimistic that it wouldn’t end up this way but it was seemingly just misplaced faith. I could feel disrespected about the things you had to say to and about me, I could feel disgusted that anyone would have even the slightest of intentions of giving less than a hundred percent against me and taking the road every cunt and their mother likes to take around these parts but it would do nothing but leave a bitter taste in my mouth. My concerns, my focuses, my attention are fixated on something far greater than you could ever present, thus there is no need to be anything more than at worst, a little disappointed. 


The deep, dark and murky waters aren’t a place we can avoid forever. The journey into the bayou is unavoidable. It’s unavoidable, for us all. Most people are actually pushed towards those unfathomable depths with unknowns beyond human comprehension. Even more find that they cannot swim. They cannot keep their head above the water, they cannot survive the waves rising over them and crashing down upon their heads. They drown, being dragged under until they simply cannot fight against the nature of this world. They’re saved, dragged back to calmer waters, shallow waters, never again to be pushed, to be baited back out; they’re unfit to be among those who thrive there and the world accepts it so.


And then there’s people like me. 


There’s people like myself, who didn’t tip toe towards the underwater cliff. Who didn’t hesitate to throw herself into those mystified waters of the grand unknown. Who didn’t hold an ounce of fear when the waves rose high enough to block out the sun, when breath was impossible to find beneath those waves. When the sea surged, I never feared, I never worried. It was a matter of choice. More times than I can count, I have chosen to leap into the part of this world that shatters dreams and buries those most hopeful, most optimistic and survived each and every time. And on the occasions where I have failed, there has never been anyone to blame or offload the disappointment that comes in defeat onto, the consequences of my own actions stare me dead in the eye each and every time I step through those ropes and no matter how monumental those consequences can be, no matter how many consequences, positive or negative I may have to face, the desire to continue never falters. There is not a person on the face of this earth that can contest that, not a person living, breathing, that could convince the rest that I somehow do not belong, that I have not proven I belong but people will continue to have nothing but the audacity. 


Fuck around and find out, I guess.



The worst part about this is that come Sunday, when you wake up and the night before is just a mere blurring of the bright lights shining down on you, you would have made no gains in your career. All that you had set to gain from possibility will be far beyond your reach. You may not view me in the best of lights and that’s fine because the most important people do - if they did not, I would not have been presented with this opportunity. If I was the bottom of the totem pole scum that so many like to proclaim I am, I would’ve been lucky to be thrown in the battle royal for your championship but here I am. To play your games, to have your fun, it’s all well and good to find means to dig beneath the skin of your opponents, to fuck with them, to frustrate them but while you’ll play your part until the very end, people like myself, people like Liz Karlson, like literally fucking anyone who thrive in the deep end, we see through it. And when we arrive at these matches, where you, Felix, have no more games to play, no more means to escape, forced to come face to face with the consequences of many actions. In the end, those like me win. Those like me cannot be stopped on our ascension to the top. You can fill yourself with all the confidence you can possibly muster but it won’t be enough. For the first time in your career you’re being dragged into waters you’re not comfortable in; waters you don’t know how to survive in, waters you simply do not know enough about.


And I’m going to fucking drown you.

VILLAIN?



“Here we are: only days away from the battle that might well define the shape of Odyssey going forward. And, honestly, I don’t know what I expected… but I’m disappointed all the same.”

“I’ve been waiting so patiently to hear what my opponents have to say… what defense they could possibly offer for their own actions, what justifications they plan on spewing to explain away their flaws and failures, what wild claims they have to make to try and boost their self-confidence and self-esteem before stepping into the ring. And what do I get? Precious little. Only the pathetic bleating of a few sheep, and silence from the rest.”

“What’s the matter? Are the rest of you really that intimidated by me? I can’t say I blame you, though that doesn’t make me any less frustrated. I’d always heard the women on Odyssey were the best in the business: a place where femininity and grace met strength and determination, to fully represent the true potential of the female spirit. Looks like I fell for the hype… I suppose I’m only human at the end of the day, and just as susceptible to clever marketing as anyone else. The only difference is that I can see the lies when they’re revealed to me. Unlike the rest of the herd, I’m not paralyzed by cognitive dissonance when I realize that the reality of the situation doesn’t match my beliefs.”

“So, you can all keep your secrets for now. No need for unnecessary words. In my line of work, it doesn’t matter if a patient isn’t willing to speak during our first session, because I’m an expert in making people talk when they don’t want to. Forcing them to open up, and reveal their deepest fears, spill their darkest secrets, and give voice to everything that keeps them up at night. Given time, I’ll find my way into your heads… each and every one of you. And you know what? To tell the truth, I do enjoy a challenge, so go ahead and try to resist: you may be closed books now, but you won’t remain as such after a few minutes with me.”

“But I promise, there’s no need to be afraid: I’m here to help. Don’t believe me? Well, that’s an inaccuracy in judgment that I’m only too happy to assist in correcting. I wish nothing but the best, not just for the country, or the brand, but each of you individually. I understand that it may be difficult to take me at my word, after all the terrible things you’ve likely heard about me on CNN or the social media platform of your choice. It’s so typical for this sick society to try and drag down everyone who attempts to elevate them: not unlike crabs in a bucket. Mediocrity loves company, after all, and tends to hate those who show them that there is a better – albeit more difficult – path to walk in this life.”

“Just ask yourself this: if I was the monster you believe me to be, why would I agree to counsel Thotyssey through their problems? Those women represent so much that is wrong with the state of our civilization, and I would be well within my rights to do everything in my power to destroy them, to shatter their arrogance and shove their faces in the mess that they’ve left all over this brand… and yet, I’m doing the opposite. I’m trying to assist them, to help them put aside whatever differences they may have, to show them the error of their ways, to prove that they can be better people… that they don’t have to exploit their own youth and sexuality to be popular. That they can be something more positive: real role models to the impressionable young girls who watch along at home, living proof that they don’t have to become the oversexualized floozies that the patriarchy wants them to be. That they can be happier – and more successful – if they simply return to a more traditional and pure form of femininity. They can educate themselves, gain real power, and use it to enact meaningful change… to save not just themselves, but this country – and this world – as a whole.”

“But sometimes, before a person can come to realize their true potential, they have to be completely torn down. They have to hit the bottom, before they can begin to work their way up out of the quagmire that consumes them. Fortunately, I can assist with that, too.”

“I’m not terribly surprised about the silence from, say, Josie Grey: she’s probably too busy howling at the moon and eating raw meat somewhere in the wilderness to speak on this upcoming match. Or Skylar, no doubt planning revenge against Alyssa Grace, and overseeing her corrupt conglomerate Dorado Enterprises in its never-ending quest to further unravel the social fabric of America in service of her own profit and power. That being said, there are two women who I had hoped to hear from. Marie Bouchard and Violet Cunningham. Two of the most interesting individuals not just on Odyssey, but OWA as a whole. Fascinating subjects, and ones I would give anything to pick apart in the privacy of my office.”

“Though maybe I shouldn’t be surprised at the silence from them thus far. Marie, for all her foolish meddling in the dark arts, seems to be one of the most innocent hearts in Llorona’s little playground. I don’t doubt that the untimely passing of Chris Sabertooth – which she surely knows she played more than a small part in – has taken its toll on her psyche. The murder of one of wrestling’s brightest stars must weigh heavily on her, as it should. And though she’s right in blaming herself, I can’t help but feel sorry for her. She was only trying to do the right thing, but she went about it in the wrong way. You see, Marie, some people don’t want to be helped. Sometimes – and I know this only too well from experience – it requires a bit more than words, no matter how well-intentioned they may be.”

“But I get the feeling I don’t need to tell you that you’ve made a terrible mistake in dealing with the beast that has taken over Hana’s mind, body and soul. In fact, I’d wager that you’ve been hearing all about those errors from your friend and ‘partner’, Violet Cunningham. It’s funny, I had her pegged as the muscle, but it seems that she might have been the brains of the outfit the entire time. She knew that your methods wouldn’t work to contain the demon, but you paid her protests little mind. So, Violet, I say to you this: I know your kind tends to despise sunlight, but are you really content living in the shadow of that damned witch? You are capable of so, so much more… and if Marie had been willing to listen to you as an equal, I know that you’d have dealt with Havoc prior to the death of Chris… even if that meant killing Hana herself, before she was capable of harming others. But no, Marie’s heart of gold held you back, and now a man lay dead. How many more must perish, before you do what must be done, Violet?”

“Now, I see little point in addressing whatever claims have been made by the daughter of a well-known terrorist like Arata Asakura, so I don’t believe I’ll be bothering with analyzing Rin’s words. I’m unlikely to ever get through whatever xenophobic, hateful worldview her father has forced upon her: some programming is simply too deep-rooted to ever untangle. Likewise, I only have a single thing to say to Devi Krysis: yes, my poor, foolish girl, I am a real doctor. You’re more than welcome to come visit my office and take a look at my credentials. It would be an honor to have the shortest-reigning Goddesses Champion as a patient of mine. My door is always open to such a brave, unfortunate, down on her luck young woman such as yourself. Just be sure to call ahead for an appointment, okay? My schedule is a rather busy one these days.”

“Now, there was one person who made some statements that are so misguided, so ridiculous and false, that I simply cannot let them stand unanswered. Miss Fatale, you wound me… or at least, that’s what I would be saying if I put any stock in your words, or what you think about me. The fact is, you’ve done nothing but regurgitate the buzzwords fed to you by the same system you claim to be against. Me, a right-wing extremist? Such a terrible indictment of the times we live in, that a woman who simply wishes to undo the harm of the past several decades is painted as some kind of fascist. But I won’t hold it against you, because it’s an opinion shared by so very many. Men and women who have been convinced – brainwashed, even – to act against their own interests and destroy a once-proud society, all so that the mega-capitalists and corrupt political class can rule without fear of the peasants revolting. Divide and conquer, my dear, and you’ve fallen right into their trap. You may believe you’re a rebel, but you’re nothing more than a footsoldier for the very people who want to oppress us and rob us of the bright future that we – as proud Americans – are entitled to.”

“So what’s the plan here? Act like such a ridiculous, paint-by-numbers edgelord that I die of second-hand embarrassment? A bold strategy, but I don’t think it’s going to pay off, so you’d better have a backup in mind already… because if you don’t, the only thing that’s Inevitable will be your defeat. Dani, I just have one real question to ask you: do you think I enjoy having to look down on you all? To take stock of my surroundings and come to terms with the depressing reality that nobody but me is doing what’s necessary to save the citizens of this country from the quagmire of immorality and ignorance that has consumed and destroyed so many bright, young women? Do you not realize that I’d much rather glance to my left and right and see true equals? Brave, honest, fierce women who embody everything that feminism was originally fighting for, before it too became a victim of the false narrative of our time?”

“I’m at a loss for why any of you believe yourselves worthy of a match against Felix. Do you truly think that you have a chance of defeating that woman, or are you merely blinded by the greed for that title belt she holds? Ah, the ecstasy of gold, a powerful motivation for those who can be swayed by simple trinkets and prizes. I suppose I can understand why you fools may lust after such a meaningless thing, for we live in a society that seems to put far too much value on pointless trophies… so I can hardly blame any of you for falling into that materialistic mindset. But the simple fact is, none of you could possibly hope to unseat the Queen of Odyssey, no matter how hard you might try. No, no, she’s proven that she belongs at the top, and it will take more than the average competitor to tear her off the throne. I’m the only one in this match who could possibly prove a worthy challenge to an athlete of her caliber. You must know the truth in my words, whether any of you are able to admit it to yourselves or not.”

“You see, I have something that all of you don’t, and it’s not just my intelligence. Which, quite frankly, puts you all to shame: I was earning my doctorate while the rest of you were suckling on your mother’s breast… or, given the weakness I see on display when I look at all of you, more likely some bottle filled with corn syrup and soy-laden formula. It’s not even my grasp of the fundamentals of athletic competition, learned from my time as an amateur wrestler at Yale: a sport far purer and more respectable than the insanity that goes on inside an Omega Wrestling Alliance ring. No, what sets us apart is motivation… and not for something as petty and self-serving as the adulation of the crowd, or whatever shiny little championships are up for grabs. I’m in service of a higher power, a greater calling, something beyond myself. My goal is nothing less than conquering this little corner of the grand American culture war, the one adorned in pink and called ‘Odyssey’.”

“It’s not news to me that most of the bleating, ignorant cattle that make up this country view me as some kind of foul villain who has dedicated themselves to slowing the never-ending march of progress. And I suppose they’re correct: I do seek to turn back the clock, to cut away the rot that has festered too long in the heart of this nation, and to bring us all back to a simpler, better time. A time when women were women, and men were men, and people were actually happy to wake up in the morning, knowing they could work towards a worthwhile future for themselves and their families.”

“But despite the lies you’ve all been fed by the machine that seeks to keep us all in chains – little more than modern-day slaves of heartless commerce and mindless consumption – I’m not evil. All I ask is that you turn off your television sets, put down your smartphones, and use your own brains for perhaps the first time in your lives. That’s all I ask: look at me as I really am, not as what your corporate and political masters want you to see me as. And while I’m aware that whatever capacity for critical thought and independence you may have been born with has been all-but strangled out of you by those who seek to enslave this country and keep us under their heel, I still beg of you to try and break the ties that bind you to their hateful, self-destructive worldview.”

“After all, most of you are fellow Americans. We’re countrymen, whether you like it or not, and that means I have a responsibility to raise you up, regardless of your personal sins and vices. Before this nation became little more than a globalist economic zone, we were the greatest country in the history of the world. All I want is to return to those days. Please, be honest with yourselves, if not with me: you can’t really believe that we’re better off now than we were 100, 50, or even 10 years ago. If anything, the decline has only grown faster with every passing day. With every week and month that go by, we slide deeper into depravity and degeneracy, gleefully destroying everything that our ancestors worked so hard to achieve for us and our homeland.”

“Get rid of your biases, cast aside your preconceptions and false virtues, and you’ll see that I’m not the villain you all want to see me as… but then again, I’m hardly a hero, either. I don’t have such lofty, unrealistic views of myself to make such a ridiculous claim as that. I’m merely a woman, not so different from any other… but for the fact that I’ve broken free of society’s attempts to brainwash me. I’m no longer forced to kneel in worship of the 21st Century Gods of ‘equity’ and ‘liberalism’. That alone makes me dangerous: a real threat to the power structure that wants to keep us all under its oppressive heel. Not some make-believe rebel like Dani Fatale, serving the interests of the very system that is poisoning her mind and destroying her very soul.”

“No… I’m not a bad person. But I’m not a good person either, whatever such a thing even means in these troubled times. I’m whatever this company… this country… this world… needs me to be. Nothing more, nothing less. If that means I’m condemned to being hated by the very people I’m trying to uplift, then so be it. You’ll find, in time, that I’m made of sterner stuff than you all might assume. And unlike so many women in this day and age, the opinions of the cattle make little difference to my own sense of self-worth. I know my value and the importance of my personal mission, and I won’t be convinced otherwise by those who seem determined to remain beneath me: morally, physically, and intellectually.”

“I look forward to proving myself to each and every one of you. Perhaps after tasting defeat at my hands, you’ll be willing to cast aside your preconceived notions, and listen to the wisdom of my words… or perhaps not. Regardless, it’s worth a shot, because I refuse to sit back and let the cancer spread. I’ve already committed myself to act, and nothing short of my death – or yours – will stop me in my effort to help you open your eyes, and see the truth behind the lies you’ve all told yourselves.”

“Consider this match the first step of many on the path towards your mental and spiritual salvation.”

Odyssey #1: Mistress of Destiny.

15.11.22 Athens, Greece

*Since Rin first showed up in front of the eyes of the people of the present world, several months have passed. It was a very difficult time, but also an exciting one. Although the girl used it to learn what the wrestling industry is all about, she still had in mind that she should aim high. Even if in the eyes of others she was just the pretty daughter of Arata Asakura, Rin wanted people to see that she was much more than that. In fact, she wanted to prove to herself that she had a chance to become as popular and decorated as her father. Not because they have the same surname, but because she has skills to do things her own way. Especially since she knew how different she was from Arata. She wasn't a prodigy, she was a hard worker. However, what they definitely had in common in terms of personality was that they were both ambitious. And above all, like her father, Rin was a born leader. Which, even if it seems not so significant now, can be very beneficial later on. What made it easier was that despite her family's bad reputation, she was able to reach the hearts of those she wanted. That skill was also her little backup plan if something went wrong in the Battle Royal on the next Odyssey.*

*The recording begins on one of the side alleys of sunny Athens. The camera is focused not only on the unique views but above all on the Japanese woman, who is walking towards the lens. The woman is wearing a bright blue dress with puffy sleeves and wedge sandals. Her long pink hair is tied in a high ponytail and red lipstick draws attention to her face. Rin holds a mug of iced tea in one hand and a wicker basket in the other.*

Since OWA's visit to India, I haven't gotten a moment of peace from reporters. Everyone just asked me about what happened to my father, but I don't know what they expected from me. Just like everyone else, not only in the arena, but in the whole world, I have no idea what happened that night. I haven't heard a word from him since Boiling Point, so I hope that ends this damn harassment of my privacy. I know that might sound a little cold-hearted, because he is my family, after all. But this isn't the first time he's done something crazy. Though, I'm not even sure if it's really him, even though he has the same face. But all I can do is trust him. It would really be a bad move for me to worry about it now and get distracted. Anyway, I'm sure he wouldn't want that. He would probably come up to me and tell me not to be stupid and mind my own business. I'm sure he'd want me to focus fully on Battle Royal, where a very nice opportunity is waiting for me. Therefore, I will cut myself off from this dark situation and look ahead towards a bright future.

*Rin smiles slightly, then takes a sip of mango tea. However, she quickly moves on to what she wants to say.*

After my rivalry with Nami, all I wanted was to be back in Goddesses Title picture. Of course, I knew it wouldn't be easy for someone like me, and it wasn't. Llorona didn't even consider me to be in a five way match at Boiling Point. However, even though I do care about that belt, because it felt like it had slipped out of my fingers, I'm not going to be unhealthily obsessed. If I ever manage to challenge for it again, I'm sure I'll be happy, but there are so many great opportunities around, that it would be a sin not to take advantage of them. Look, even at the next Odyssey, the contendership to the Sparks Championship is at my fingertips. However, it is obvious that it will be a difficult task. After all, I have to fight for the possibility to call myself a challenger with fourteen other women. And many may be terrified by this number, but I have a feeling that only a few individuals really have a chance to try to win this match. The rest of the group either doesn't seem ready to be in such a big company, or it was just never their destiny to be a wrestler.

I know, I'm kind of a rookie, that's why people often get mad when I talk about their lack of experience or skills. However, many forget that even though I haven't officially spent that much time in the ring, I'm not an amateur. I am born into a wrestling family, I have seen my father working in the dojo for years. Therefore, what gives me an advantage over the rest of the rookies is that I have a lot of knowledge about, what works in this industry and what does not. It's something every budding wrestler has to grow up to. Some take more, others less time, but it's impossible to expect a career and not have an absolute clue about what you're doing. However, one thing is worth considering. Is it possible to deal with something like this, when we haven't even mastered our own mind yet? Because looking at how lost Tomomi Shinozaki is, the answer is clear. As you can see, talent alone is not enough, if you can't use it, because your own self-esteem is killing you. And that is what is blocking you all the time, right, Tomomi? From what I heard, you were a top student in your dojo, but seems that it means nothing in practice. Apart from the fact that the wrestling school and the actual industry are two completely different worlds. One is like heaven and the other is like hell. But the biggest problem is that, you don't know what you're doing here, so you can't show your talent. The thing is, no one will believe that you deserve to be member of Odyssey, and it's not because we want to be mean. It is because you don't believe yourself, that you should be here. You don't feel ready to face the competition on this level. So your participation in this battle royal? It's like throwing a sheep into a pack of wolves. We will simply tear you apart to such an extent, that you will never rebuild yourself from that loss. And you know what the worst thing about all this is? That you're so mentally weak and so insecure, that it won't just be your last match in OWA. But very possibly the last of your career and that's a shame. However, a situation like this only shows that not only technique, but above all a healthy mind are important in this business. But you don't have to worry so much, Tomomi, even veterans sometimes don't realize how important mental health is. Let's just look at Ruri. She's been in the business for quite some time, and by this point she's become a complete wreck. Not only physically, but most of all, she is sick in her head. Which only leads to even more destruction on her side. I don't know if it's the fault of all the unexpected news about her family, or working with these Gaijins. However, Ruri has changed a lot. She lost the fire burning in her and replaced it with a block of ice. So cold that she stopped caring not only for others, but mainly for herself. Which was an easy path to a downfall, and that's what we saw from the first day she signed with OWA. Being a big name, she was given opportunity after opportunity, but she was never able to seize any of them. What's more, she didn't even give 20 percent of her abilities, so every chance was slipping away quickly and painfully. To be honest, I'm not sure if she won even one match here. If so, it was probably ages ago and didn't leave much of an impact. Which is even more than sad, but what can I do. I can only pity what a terrible state all the joshi wrestlers find themselves in after coming to America. Cause most of them just can't make it. They rely too much on the honor that is instilled in us, while America's industry is built on lies and dirty games.

I know what an unjust place this country is, but many people use it as an excuse for their weakness. They think if they blame everything and everyone, they'll feel comfort in their miserable being. So let me ask, are you in a better mood, Devi? Or do you need another few days to cry over losing a belt, you should never have? Listening to your self-pity is downright funny, but it just makes me realize what a delusional person you are. Do you really think it's Havoc, Hana, Marie, Gwen and Violet's fault that you're not the so-called champion anymore? If you were something more than a waste of space, you wouldn't need them to keep your belt. What's more, it was a five-way match, so theoretically anything was allowed. No one forbade you to reach for more effective ways either. So you can only blame yourself for not being creative enough. However, you wanted to act like a proud champion. You wanted to be like the previous holders of this title. The thing is, you never had the potential to win shit on this brand at all. It's still a goddamn miracle that you got your five minutes of fame. So instead of bitching, be glad you had this chance, because it will never happen again, Devi. That one show as a champion was the greatest achievement of your career, but also your last. Especially with such a pathetic attitude. But while you stand here and cry, because you can't understand your own mistakes, I'll focus on winning this Battle Royal. However, when it comes to Bad Meets Evil, as long as they haven't said anything yet, one thing can be said after seeing the reaction on their faces. They're just as petty as you, Devi. Looks like our little witch didn't just underestimate Havoc, because her crappy magic tricks were nothing to him. In addition, she had the opportunity to see how weak their friendship is. Wasn't Violet talking about how this championship won't affect your relationship? Didn't she give you a fake sense of comfort? And what a few minutes after the bell? Bang, before you realized, the boot from Violet landed right in your face. And apparently she was so eager to help you win, as long as Auntie Hana didn't get the belt. It seems that this fake bitch Violet, not only is not trustworthy, but also tried to steal the victory at the expense of her friend. So I hope you will be wiser this time, because another attempt to cooperate will not result in winning the match, but in the disintegration of your team.

However, when it comes to hopeless tag team partners, one name immediately comes to mind. Skylar Arceneaux. It's quite ridiculous that not only did you want to steal Tarah Nova's comeback moment, but you also miserably wasted your chance at the Tag Team Championships. I can imagine you felt that a deal with a veteran of OWA would increase your chances of success here. However, we all know you're not very good at doing business. Even if you don't admit it, you probably didn't inherit your parents' genes to be a big money player. All you took away from your family home was superiority complex and bad behavior. Because you don't really have any positive values, Skylar. The only thing you can do is being bossy towards people in incompetent way. So that they fulfill your whims, because if you don't get what you want, you go crazy like a five years old brat demanding a toy. Although you probably don't realize that everyone has their fucking limits and that they will have enough of you. Which you should already understand after what happened to your previous faction. These two left you, because they got fed up with your rich bitch attitude. And I'm not surprised at all. Not only did you treat them like minions, but they didn't even get any benefit from carrying your lazy ass. And that's your biggest problem, Skylar. Even if you have some predisposition to be a wrestler, you just don't care enough. You are too lazy to put more effort into your development. What's worse, you think that you can replace these deficiencies with a ridiculous amount of money, or by doing others dirty. No wonder you've accomplished nothing more than being in the shadow of Alyssa Grace for almost two years.

Having money and a "guaranteed" position can sometimes be very blinding. It gives a very dangerous impression of being untouchable and therefore an insensitive approach to the upcoming threat. The thing is, people like Bianca forget that being comfortable in one place, doesn't mean she should expect the same treatment in other companies. Because the truth is that, apart from JET, Bianca does not mean shit in this business. You want a fucking proof? Everyone saw how insignificant her run in APEX Wrestling was, not to mention the fact that despite two attempts at OWA, she is still nothing but a "failed call up" from years ago. But I don't think it's just that Bianca is such a narcissist, that she doesn't see that competition is much stronger than her. I dare to say that her being successful in JET has a lot in common with the bias of Azumi Goto. This wouldn't be the first time we've seen such immoral behavior on her side, so who knows. However, one of her 'biggest' stars quickly turned out to be an actual failure, to the point that I am unable to take that bitch seriously. She may be physically strong, but she is so stupid and conceited that her last brain cells are not competent enough to allow her to win a match. Not to mention that in a chaos like Battle Royal, thinking is a goddamn basics.

*Rin pushes her lower lip out for a moment and shrugs her shoulders.*

Although, I must admit that there is one person who interested me, and not only with her specific appearance. Dani Fatale is definitely someone worth mentioning. We should especially take a moment to talk about what a hypocrite she is. It is fucking amuzing, you say how important it is for everyone to have freedom, regarding what they do and how they look. However, it seems that this is only about your definition of what freedom is. Because it's a little ridiculous to hear that you can be anything you want, as long as you don't fit the standards of beauty made by society. If you are different? Hell yeah! If you are classic beauty? Go fuck yourself. That is is your dumb image, Dani. But what's wrong with being feminine? What's wrong with having a pretty face? Just because you don't want it yourself, doesn't mean it doesn't make someone else feel good about themselves. So why do you think you're better than everyone else? Because you look different?Because you have green hair, tattoos and earrings? Because you have a lot of complexes and you think that if you stand out, you will become unique? Or maybe that's where your big plans come in? However, I don't see you doing anything to fight all these fucked up organizations, that you hate. Well, I bet you don't even understand what a prize you have to pay to even try to make it happen. You may not have been here for the past two years, but we all know how my family and friends were treated when we defied the system. And despite what you might think, no one will see you as a hero. Just like us, everyone will fucking hate you, because people are afraid of change. People don't want their comfortable spot to be taken away from them. So ask yourself one question, Dani. Are you ready to take on the hate of the whole world? Although, it's probably a question you'll never find an answer to, because it doesn't seem like you have the ability to try to change the world at all. For this you need to have more than just nice-sounding ideals. You need a big name and a platform for that. While, you just entered the big world of wrestling. So if I were you, I'd focus on making my brand first, not enemies. Because way too much bullshit comes out of your mouth. You're saying I wasn't doing anything significant here? Bitch, only two months ago I was seconds away from being Goddesses Champion! Not to mention that a few matches after my debut, I defeated one of the most decorated fighters on Odyssey  to qualify for Ascension to the Heavens. So who are you to talk to me like that? Looks like some circus lost a clown along the way, and Llorona didn't think much of it and just picked you up off the street.

*The girl turns around hearing some voices behind her, only to notice a flock of reporters. Rin just rolls her eyes then quickly adds.*

I realize that there will be fourteen other women in this fight, and each of them wants to win in some way. According to those fucking bets, some people have more, some less chances. Especially since there are big names in this match like Rebecca Brookes, or a trainee of Matsuda herself, Cassie Wu. But that doesn't change the fact that the person with the best chance of surviving this match is me. Maybe I don't have years of experience, as an ace in my sleeve. I may not have a list of accolades. But don't forget that I know the future and I have what it takes to make it my own.

Theodor Pavel
Friend or Foe
Post November 17th 2022, 2:26 pm by Theodor Pavel
The road to the OWA World Heavyweight Championship was never an easy journey. There were countless people in the company that had yet to even receive a chance to win it, much less two times in the past. In the world of Theodor Pavel, it was more painful to know that he hadn’t won it despite being on par with every single opponent who had come his way. He came off a victory in a tag team match against Chad Ecclestone and his wife, not an easy win by any means. He enlisted his own wife to be his partner, where others would have reached out to any member of Odyssey who would have seen more ring time this year than Misaki. He followed his heart, not his brain. It paid off.

On that same road, Theodor found himself in a one on one match in Greece against Jason Long. He knew Jason Long. He liked Jason Long. There was no heat with a perennial future legend in the business, it was just that. Business.

He was so close to getting that match with Michael Bishop at The Festival, one would think Theodor would overlook the likes of Jason Long. Long made it clear that he had no faith in Theodor. Wouldn’t be the first to make that claim, but it was geared towards the failures of the past. Two things came to mind when it was the opportunity of a lifetime to fight for the OWA World Heavyweight Championship for the Hands of Ice. It was always towards the end of the year that he would get those opportunities.

Havoc. Not Christopher Sabertooth. Not the man who was respected by the roster AND the fans. Havoc. Feared by nearly everybody, yet it was Theodor Pavel who went to war with Havoc right after the Great War. Right after the death of Kenny Drake, irreversible damage to everyone involved, Theodor fell short. It was his first chance, he didn’t get it done. If he proved anything that night, it was that Pavel was able to stand toe to toe with one of the most incredible competitors in OWA history, losing due to outside interference. That would have been a wonderful night to cap off an amazing year. He proved a lot of things that night, but he didn’t prove his point.

Arata Asakura. Most people groaned at the name of the former Self Made Man. Right after Dimensional Warfare, he was the man that was pegged to face Asakura for the Championship. Sabertooth and Jeff X sent to Hell, killed off due to greed. Had it not been for the selfless act of Emmanuelle that night, it would have been permanent. That was also the same battle that Jason Long was fighting with people over a title belt, rather than focusing on keeping Asakura from killing others. Not to make this a roundtable discussion, but Theodor went into that match with Asakura the same way he did with Havoc. Fought like hell to make the dream come true. To earn the respect of the OWA locker room since many others had fallen away. Same result, lost due to outside interference. He failed himself, his family, and countless others. Still, he proved his way on Asakura’s level that night.

Now that we finished deep diving into the wins and losses, it was time to actually hear from the guy.



::Famagusta, Cyprus::
::17.11.2022::

There he was, the number one contender to the OWA World Heavyweight Championship. Theodor found himself enjoying a day in Famagusta. Sitting on the edge of the rocks at the Sea Caves, he looked calm and comfortable. For a guy who was about to face Jason Long, he wasn’t rattled by the words of the former Maverick. Instead, he took it all with a grain of salt. He glanced down into Larnaca Bay, seeing the water flow in and out the caves. It was a sight to see.

“Why do we have to do this, Jason? You said some things about me that weren’t very kind. We’ve fought before, we both know this. We’ve fought on the opposite side of war, but we moved past this, did we not? I hear a lot of talking coming from you about how I haven’t been doing a very good job at convincing you that I can win the Championship. This was no pep talk. I hear those all the time. To be honest with you, it’s been done to death. Theodor can’t do this, I will tell him he can’t so he does it and everyone goes home happy. I’ve heard it done to death. The underdog story makes a great movie. A movie that Chad Ecclestone will not be making, I may have to call somebody else for that one.

This has been silly to me, though. I admit, Jason Long is one of the greatest wrestlers in the business today. Anywhere he goes, he’s either a Champion or he is showcased to be one of the biggest stars in the industry. I say you earned the right to be that by fighting some of the greatest battles I’ve ever seen. I admire you for that. It wasn’t a handout, you did it.

Now you’re saying that this entire thing is bad for you because you’re not the one in the driver’s seat. Okay, that might be a problem for you. You’re frustrated over not being the OWA World Heavyweight Champion. You’re irritated over not beating Michael Bishop to which now you are saying nobody can beat Michael Bishop. Of course. Right now, he is on top of his game and damn near unbeatable. Certainly a weak challenger like Theodor Pavel cannot touch Michael Bishop. I’ve heard it done to death.

Lack of faith is fine, I have mine. My allies are gone, at least to you they are. Everyone in the Frontline has moved on and become the stars of the company. Okay, you can say those things, but you’re forgetting one of the most important things about this match. Admit this, please. You’re not Michael Bishop. I’m not Michael Bishop. I’m Theodor Pavel. You’re Jason Long. In our own ways, we are both very good. We both have fought the biggest names in wrestling and we have defeated a lot of them too. I want you to know that you're not broken. Nothing breaks Jason Long. It just makes him work harder. I know this first hand.”

Taking a glance down at the water, he noticed people coming by on a boat. They wanted to enjoy the caves like everyone else. It was refreshing to see something positive for a change. Everything had overwhelmed him so much in the last two years that he was finally understanding what he needed to do to get peace back into his life. He gave a polite wave to the family on the boat, smiling. After the loss to Asakura, he hadn’t been the same. His confidence was dying. He was left off television for OWA, live events. Yet any time they needed to have someone nearly die in a war, Theodor Pavel’s phone would ring. He didn’t like a professional wrestler any longer, just a soldier waiting to die on the field. It was heart wrenching for his family, much worse than a loss in a match.

“We’ve been in two companies together. When you came to Osaka to fight for SWWS at the Grand Prix, we shook hands and said nice things. At the time, I was the SWWS World Heavyweight Champion. It was a change in scenery, right? I wasn’t the guy looking at the Champion, not there anyways. You had a wonderful match, shut up a bad Englishman and moved on with your day. You went to your many places of employment and continued your path to be the best. You and I have taken different paths, truthfully. Despite that, and despite our history, we understood each other. When I went into the future to fight a horrific situation, you held down the fort to make sure that there was an OWA for us to come back to. For that, I cannot thank you enough, Jason. I respect the hell out of you.

What I don’t think you understand though.. You said that I always need people to help me. I don’t remember the exact words, but I get by with my friends. Here is the truth. I know I can fight on my own, I’ve done it a lot. I just needed the motivation to actually do it. I’m not invincible like the great Jason Long, I’m not. I’m human and I do fall sometimes. Falling is a part of life, you just need to get back up. Whether it’s with help or not, you still stand again. I’m sure you never needed the help of the Underworld over there. I’m sure you never needed the help of that group with Sabertooth that is slipping my mind. Never needed help, right? We both know that isn’t true.

That’s the beauty of having people in your life. When I have what my therapist calls episodes, Misaki calms me down. When I need a wake up call so I don’t miss my flight, Morgan calls me. I make mistakes, that happens. Bishop called me plenty of times when I was at my worst. Jeff called me plenty of times when I needed to understand something that was happening in my life. Even Sabertooth, your friend and mine, he called me when Anya was born and I was panicking. Yes, I do need help sometimes. I called you when I thought you could use someone to vent to. You just didn’t answer.

We all need help sometimes. Why be mean about it though? We’re human beings. We have friends, families, and health. Everything that the world owed you, it paid already. You want this match to be your biggest opportunity to step back onto the platform that you want to be at, fine. That’s what we’re going to do at Kingdom. This isn’t just any Kingdom though, this is in Greece. I happen to be enjoying my time in Cyprus right now, with my good friends, with Misaki, with Anya. This is the calm before our storm and I’m ready for that.

I’m ready to face the man who can fight with the best of them. I’m ready for you to fight the guy who has an opportunity that you wanted so badly. That same opportunity that you already had at Boiling Point. Despite all that, you’re still one of the best wrestlers I’ve ever seen. You’re still the man who talked up the biggest game. You’re still somebody who I want to see as the Champion one day because I know you deserve it. There is one problem though. There is a chance that you’ll have to do it against me. Will you still have that fire you claim you need? Will you still be the motivated and angered legend that I see every time you come to the ring? Or will you take a loss as the end of the Jason Long we all knew? That’s a question for another day, a question that we may never have answered.

Still, I wish you best of luck in our match as I know we both will make everybody happy to see great professional wrestling in Athens. I’ll be leaving for Greece tomorrow morning, but I’m sure I will see you before we get into that ring and beat the living shit out of one another to prove who is the better man. I will see you soon, my friend.”

Despite their upcoming match against one another, there was no ill will from Theodor Pavel to Jason Long. Still a friend, still a teammate in this incredibly difficult business.

If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together. - Robin Jones Gunn

Let’s have a lil heart to heart about consistency, shall we? I know my opponent swears up and down that this is for the kids, this is for his son, this is for his family, so while I’m before I knock him off the soapbox, y’all mind if I use it to talk my shit again?


Drago Santiago entered Olympus to pomp and circumstance, to his name etched in bright lights and his face across every poster, promotional material, fucking collectors cups and ice cream sandwiches, you name it and Drago Santiago’s ugly mug was on it. Despite that, it was never shit to me. I might’ve started to believe my own hype, but I’m being sincere in saying I don’t think I inherently have more value than an El Landerson, a Ryo, a Gatz, or anyone else here. Doesn’t matter who I am, doesn’t matter what I say, the only time you can measure my value is when you see what I do. So I laced up my All-stars, I put boots to asses, I made turned shoulders into spaghetti and elbows into elbow pasta, and I fought anyone who was willing to step into the ring with me. Shit, at a PPV aptly named Boiling Point, I maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaybe got a bit too hasty and got into it with some people who weren’t willing to get into the ring with me, but of all the insults you could sling my way, you could never get away with calling me entitled. No contendership match was safe when I had shit-else to do.


 I get made to jump through hoops? I say thank you, and I ask for another. Senn has to get a friend to help him eliminate me from the Clash? It ain’t a problem, because before I leave the ring, I tell him I’ll see him at the top; but he ain’t there anymore, so I guess he didn’t understand me. Corey enlists the Three Stooges to take the title out of arms reach? I pick up my teeth, I dust myself off, and I curse myself for not having the idea first. 
Scratching and clawing through the muck for my first six months, I am STILL unpinned, I am STILL unsubmitted, but I ain’t immune to the filth. But it was always kizzy, because your effort is how you pay your way. 


Least, that’s how I perceived it. So before y’all start yappin’ off a the mouth about the Immortal Heavyweight Championship, about robbing Nobi of an opportunity, or about the implications of putting my hands on staff, can we ask the real question here?


Since when did beating El Landerson amount for shit? Why not openly say ‘Wow, congratulations, you completed the Xbox Achievement of fogging a mirror!’ Is this the future liberals want? ‘You manage to lay hands on everyone’s favorite punching bag, so here’s an Icarus championship opportunity! Here’s a prestige championship opportunity! Oh, you came up short on both of those? Well, how’s a match with the future Immortal Heaviweight champion sound?’ No disrespect to Rich or RIP, but we ain’t better than participation trophies? 


Damnit, Bobby. 


I hope none of this resonates personally because you’re from the white, hoitty toitty parts of the city twenty miles from where I’m from, so it’s all Detroit love, baby. Forget this being your fourth match on Olympus, this is your fourth match, period, and I don’t know how you’re getting so far above your paygrade. You’re big, you’re strong, you’re passionate, and I respect it. But this? Does management hate you? I don’t. After all, gas station dick-pills need SOMEONE to be their target demographic. I respect putting all the chips on the table for your kid, until I realize how fuckin’ old you are. At first glance, it sounds like you’re doing this to buy diapers, until I realize the manchild anchor around your ankle is your own flesh and blood. Is this the legacy you’re leaving behind for him?


Motherfucker, what else do you have to contribute to a legacy other than a predisposition to diabetes and a family tree that looks like a reef?


You’d look down to me, and I’d disappear in your shadow, but you are punching above your paygrade. You’re old enough to have a pension, but you’re facing me for scraps? Damn, you know how that makes me look? Say I break your neck like I almost broke Nobi’s - now who is the breadwinner? Your whore wife is so old that she only lets black guys enter through the back door - and your son’s too busy riding your coattails to realize the rug’s getting swept from under him. The honest to god truth is that I am going to do severe bodily harm to you if you make your presence known, because the only way I am able to feed my family is by directly stealing the food off of your table. 


Lil Bobby Jr, word of advice?


An egg, soy sauce, and green onions would run you less than five dollars. When your pappy’s steak and shrimp gets demoted to Maruchan by yours truly, just because you’ve got webbed fingers and toes, doesn’t mean you can’t eat like humans should.
