Jake the camera guy stands holding a mic and it looks real awkward and he looks lost. Timmy is doing the last second touches to get ready when Joe walks up to Jake.
JJ “Jake…..what is that?”
Jake “Uhh? A shirt?”
JJ “Yeah well take that shirt off, it looks hideous. No one wears green and black after halloween. You hear me. Try this gem on.”
Joe tosses a Team Empire shirt and as Jake swaps out his shirts Timmy stands next to his camera.
Timmy “So tell me why Jake gets to interview you two?”
Joe places his arm around Timmy.
JJ “Because he won rock paper scissors, besides holding the mic is hardly interviewing anyone you know.”
Timmy “Still, I would do that.”
JJ “Maybe next time Timmy. You ready?”
Timmy “Yes sir.”
JJ “Great! Now where is Rayne.”
“Right here “ Rayne says from the doorway . “I had to make sure you and I weren’t wearing the same clothes again . “
Rayne strides into the room wearing a Avengers t-shirt, cut off jeans, and Converse sneakers that have the Doctor Who logo and the Tardis painted on them .
Rayne :” Did you know there is a Comic-Con convention going on in the hotel down the street ? I just signed some autographs as Red Sonja and Black Widow . Didn’t see any Birds of Prey fans though “
As Rayne enters the room Joe gives her a hug, then he twirls her around and places his arm on her lower back and “dips” her backwards. She doesn’t look amused.
Rayne “Really?”
JJ “Sometimes you just have to dance. Know what I mean?”
Rayne “And sometimes you’re an idiot.”
JJ “You don’t have to dig your nails into my neck.”
Rayne “You drop me and I’ll kick you right in the head.”
JJ “hmm I see.”
Joe brings Rayne back upright.
JJ “Ready to do this?”
Rayne “Fist pump me.”
JJ “That sounds icky.”
Rayne slaps Joe on the shoulder as they walk over to wear Jake looks like a mannequin. You can tell that Joe and Rayne have known each other for a long time now and have become best friends over the years. Joe stands on Jake’s left and Rayne takes her spot on Jake’s right.
Timmy “And in three, two, one…”
Jake “Hi. I’m Jake and with me today are two members of Team Empire. hmm They are scheduled to face Team UWL hmmm tomorrow night at Grand Voyage.”
JJ “We’re going to do more than just face Team UWL Jake. Let’s be honest here.”
Jake “uhhh okay?”
JJ “I know what they have been saying. They think they have us beat already based on last week. You should have seen Nanook, he’s a nervous wreck running around with his head cut off screaming the sky is falling down but people just need to stop, take a deep breath and chill. We…..”
Joe motions between himself and Rayne.
JJ “We have this.”
Rayne “ People view us as the underdogs or bitches . Hell I rather like being a bitch ….let me clarify… I like being a confident , in control of herself , don’t F*** with me ~ BITCH . Not one of those high maintenance bitches who rely on guys - but can’t stand on her own . Some say a women is at her most dangerous when she’s silent - that doesn’t apply to Italian chicks from New York . We don’t stay silent and we don’t take shit from anybody, male or f*cking female.
I gathered I ruffled more feathers than molting season . Autumn Raven I’ve seen more intimidating psychopaths riding the subway . The one thing you have up on them is that you smell like strawberries and not piss and inhumanity and most likely didn’t get your last meal from a trash can ….but hey whatever floats yer boat . Birds may have talons , but they can still be knocked out of the sky just the same . It may take a few tries , but when it’s over and done with , you won’t be the one laughing .”
JJ “You know I’m glad you mentioned Autumn Raven. As you know Red, she is about as clueless as they come. Maybe she should take ten seconds and pull herself away from Phoenix and look around the room and take a good hard look at the temp of the room. You have Team UWL….Caleb, Bowers, Raven, Cory and Brandon standing there along the stage telling us that they are one big happy team, they are going to take a stand and fight together…..but...but….how can you be a team? I mean really? A team? You have Caleb facing Bowers tomorrow night. Autumn has made it known that she would like to get her hands on that TV title again and….didn’t you just lose to Cory last month? Now he’s your teammate? And then there's Brandon, who eyes that belt of Caleb’s……..yeah, Team UWL, one big happy cohesive team. The one thing you can’t say about Team Empire…”
Joe places his hands on Jake and slightly pushes him towards the back and then steps next to Rayne and places his arm around her. Jake slides the mic in there.
JJ “We are a team. A group of three guys who are all the same page, with the same goal, not looking to back stab each other, You know, a Team will always beat three individuals with their own goals in mind.”
Rayne “ We have the training , trust , respect and admiration for each other . It’s better to have a team foundation built with solid bricks that fit together ,than of sand that can crumble any second . Bricks can stand the test of time and be repaired, refit . Sand can only be reshaped so many times before it eventually spills out or washed away at the last minute .
Sure ESW may have lacked the proper leadership at the end .But after she fell and out of the remains came a family united . It wasn’t the money or the promise of fame , it was the spirit and essence of soul that ESW stood for .
If you want to go fast go alone , if you want to go far go together . Now I don’t care if you bleed green - in which case you are either a Vulcan hybrid or it’s really puss and you should get that checked. I don’t care if you focus more on my ass or my tits in the match than my talent . That’ll be your fatal mistake ….and I mean both you Cory “King Dong” Chevelle and you Brandon Shadows . I earned the title “ Bombshell from Hell” for a reason and it’s not because I’m unstable like Autumn Raven . God blessed me with the goods , I worked on the guns to protect them .”
Joe pulls out his phone and checks it while Rayne was talking. He snickers.
JJ “I wonder how Autumn feels about being whipped into shape there Brandon. I wonder how Cory is going to react when you’re barking in his face. Last week you and Durrigan might have gotten the upperhand and pulled out that little win. Go ahead and throw yourself a parade for that big victory. Take a good hard long look at Durrigan and draw little hearts around his ugly mug in your mind and reflect on how you think you made the right choice in dumping Hammerstorm. You two did worked well as a team. You two got the job done. Angie and I….Hey we just didn’t hack it and Cory is right. We might have a weak link in Pierce on our team but he’s here because we wanted him here, because we trust him and know he’ll get his act together sooner rather than later. But where in you have lost 3 times Cory...Rayne here. Has only lost once in her time in the UWL and tomorrow night, Pierce isn’t in this match. Durrigan isn’t in this match. I’m not at odds with Angelo, I’m not at odds with Rayne…”
Joe gives Rayne a peak on the cheek.
JJ “We’re not calling each other names, We’re not pretending to like each other. From where we stand, on the other side of the ring is complete chaos. Autumn eying Brandon’s belt, eying Cory’s belt, and those two waiting for Autumn to reveal her talons and strike them in the back, and two big bulls inside a ring never get along. You know Shadows wants that belt of Cory’s much how Bowers wants Hart’s belt. You can’t say your a team when you’re busy fighting each other. Amidst the chaos Team Empire, will start to pick you off one by one till there is none of you left and when that happens…..”
Joe steps towards the camera.
JJ “Because it will happen.”
Joe steps back.
Rayne “ And it WILL happen not just because of us . But we’re okay with taking the blame . You see the seeds of hate have been planted , just be careful of what you water them with . A team divided is not a really a team at all . Just a bunch of hypocrites hiding behind a banner as new faces come in a shake the status quo and
So come on Autumn Raven be the beach bully and kick some sand in my face , get your last laughs in but you better watch your back . If you want I have some connections at Bellevue anytime you want a nice padded room for two - you'll even get these nice half bathrobes that allow you to hug yourself .
Cory ...my dear knuckle dragger . Stop being Tarzan and put the loin cloth away .According to National Geographic, average length of an African elephant penis is about 6 ft and weighs 55 lbs . Have fun backing that shit up much less doing a frog splash from the top rope. You could really F*** yourself if you land wrong .
And witty as you are about trying to teach equations … if ya did a lil digging you would see that Gravitational Constant :G=6.67x10-8cm-3gm-1sec-2 is a song . You just messed up some poor kids math skills worse than Common Core ever will .
And Brandon ( Rayne shakes her head ) I’m sure after this match your views of women will change . … or maybe its your views of your teammates that will change . Like Joey boy here said , you're whipping them into shape and making sure that no one makes a name for themselves at your expense . Its all on you , well once you and Donger there decide who’s is bigger and actually the leader of UWL .
JJ “Last week will be a distant memory and the whirlpool of dysfunction inside of Team UWL, will be what leads to the downfall of the UWL and the rise of Team Empire!”
Joe puts his arm around Rayne and motions for Jake to step around him and Joe puts his arm around. Jake is so happy to have conducted his first ever “interview” that he can’t help but smile.
JJ ”And with that kiddies, you can consider yourselves warned.”
