FAWA Promo Thread #15

[General Adam]

Ah. Win some lose some I guess. But on a plus side Gus' little brother, cousin, whoever the hell he is didn't win either.

*The General takes out a cigar and lights it.*

Looks like I'm not on the card next week. Well that's alright. I need a rest anyway.


I wonder how the weather in Cuba is like this time of year?

[Gus Richlen: Ruffian]

If you really think that Michael Hayden, who has exposed himself to the world as the truly rotten individual that he is, pile more disrespect on me and this championship and this company and the fans and go unpunished, you are sadly, sadly mistaken. And for your sake, Blood, you better hope I DON'T lose because if I do I have unfinished business to take care of, and you will not like how I plan to finish it.

[Oak: Certified Jade Hater]

Well, I was right. You really do have the worst case of a Napolean complex I have ever seen.

I'd talk more, but I just got dropped onto concrete after getting hit with a fireball. Even "Hollywood's Own" needs a rest.

Honestly, I've given up on trying to change you for the better. I really have. Last night, you sank to a whole new low, and I realize now that even after I do beat you, you will never change. It's sad, really. The hypocrisy will always be there, the jealousy, the refusal to respect anyone but yourself while demanding that we all have to respect you, the refusal to fairly earn a shot at anything, the overinflated ego.... None of it will change even after I defeat you. And that is truly a sad thing.

And by the way, I spent almost two hours last night having glass shards pulled out of my back and having stitches in my face not to mention being damn near electrocuted, and you don't hear me complaining.

You are a sad, strange little man, and you have my pity.

[Some Baritone guy IS REDEEMED!]

All right settle down Frederico. Let me ask you something do you want me to remember your name?

If you do make it worth remembering.

[Head Detective Aaron Enigma]

Sorry Scotty. You put up a fight but you are just a few years too early to deal with someone like Aaron Enigma. You have quite the future though if you don't walk into a trap like you did in our match.

Now if you will excuse me, I have a Man in Black to expose.

*Aaron pulls out his phone and begins dialing as the camera pans away.*

Comic Book Chaos is gonna be a good night.

I get to sit back and watch as Gus Richlen loses his last remaining championship, and the last tattered shreds of what credibility he once had.

When I came back, I thought I'd have to personally destroy Richlen, but watching him self-destruct has been really damn satisfying.

But enough about him. Let's talk about me and Connor Mackenzie.

Everything I said before still applies, and your victory over Flynn doesn't change a thing. Your streak of successful defenses ends at Comic Book Chaos. It ends at the hands of me, Ryan Blood.

If you leave the pay-per-view with a championship, it'll be the IF strap. The Television Title is leaving the building on my shoulder.

And to all you doubters who think that the man who defeated the last two World Heavyweight Champions in less than a month can't get the job done? Buy the show, and watch as I prove you all wrong.

*The camera pans to Connor sitting in a room, across from him in another chair is the FAWA TV title. Moving to sit forward in his chair, Connor steeples his fingers together as he appears to be deep in thought before turning his head to face the camera.*

Ryan...so glad you could take a bit of time out of the busy schedule of obsessing over Gus Richlen to acknowledge my existence. You see, if you want to start down the "Here's what I did this summer" road, here's what I've done in the past month or so. I've fought the longest reigning TV champ...to date in the Lord of the Ring finals, after beating Seth Drakin that same night. A former Heavyweight Champion himself as well as current Inter-Forum champ. And oh, I'll have some words for him after this run-down as well.

I've fought Bull Ant, the world's strongest Ant not twice. A respected TV champ himself.

I've defended the TV title against one of, if not the best Inter-Forum champ of all time in Aaron Enigma. Oh yes, and he was a former World Champ as well.

I fought your friend, The General of the Monkey Army. Who some say is the greatest hardcore champ of all time.

Marshall Wesley Coventry, one half of the most recent FAWA tag team champions.

I've fought Jason Flynn, one of the fastest up and comers in this company twice, once to defend the TV title again and against him in the Inter-Forums tournament finals.

And come Comic Book Chaos once again I have not one, but two matches. Ryan, you go on about your past month but the facts are there to show that I am the most dedicated wrestler in the FAWA today. I will not back down from any man or challenge. Whether he be a current Inter-Forum champion, a former World Champion or anyone in between. I take every match seriously and treat every match as the next biggest challenge in my career. And this match with you Ryan is certainly a challenge. We've had some incredible matches. Both as friends and...well, enemies. This night will be another chapter in our careers but at the end of the night people aren't going to be tuning in to see your arm raised with the FAWA TV Title. They are going to be watching The Digital Dragon, the Iron-Man of the FAWA overcome the odds.

[Gus Richlen: Ruffian]

*Jerry Fish finds himself outside the abandoned warehouse. He knocks on the door, but it's several minutes before Richlen opens.*

In with you.

*Fish gets yanked in.

There is a ring in the middle of the building. Surrounding it are several big-screen TVs, most of which are showing college basketball games but a few of them are showing various matches from WWE, Ring Of Honor, and Japan. MWC is in the middle of the ring, looking a bit damaged. Richlen, meanwhile, seems to have broken his stitches and is bleeding again.*

At Comic Book Chaos, you will be defending the FAWA World Championship against-

Against someone who has proven that he has no class, no decency, and no honor. Michael Hayden has shown his true colors, and those colors are rotten.

So while he tries to play an empty sympathy card, I'm going to do something I know he refuses to do, and that is take my best, because I am the best, and make it even better. I don't need to play mind games or sit around complaining or warp the truth to win. That's what he's trying to do, and it will not work. All I need to do is be better both physically and mentally, and it's clear now that I am indeed better in those respects.

Unlike him, I'm not going into this match thinking that I'm just going to easily cruise to victory. I'm expecting a fight, and I'm going to give worse than he can deal out. But when all is said and done, I will not let him take The People's Championship from the person the people have put their hopes in for over two years. It's just not going to happen.

In the words of one of the legends that he despises, "I'm going to give you a show the likes of which you have never seen. Why? Because I can."

*He turns to return to his training but Fish stops him.*

What about Ryan Blood?

He had better hope that I retain the People's Championship, because otherwise, I'm going to hunt him down and finish what I started.

[Connor Mackenzie]

*Static shows and then we see Seth Drakin in his hoodie at a gym.*

DRAKIN: During this week, everyone has been asking me, "With Connor out there fighting every night, why has Seth Drakin refused to fight since Lord of the Ring?" In fact, Connor seems to think that I am holding onto this Interforums Title so hard that I am scared to fight anyone.

That's a load of crap and you know it. As you can see, I have been way too busy with preparations for this match that I don't have time to placate these pathetic sheep in the audience unless I am told to do so, which I have not been told to do.

So then I will probably get, "Why have I not been positioning myself to make matches?" Well, I did that..........when I was world heavyweight champion. You may all remember that I only won the world title by cashing in the briefcase on an injured Little Naitch and then losing it a month later to Jazzman or as you know him, Bergman. But in between that, I fought every damn show. I didn't get any breaks like Bergman did. And I didn't fight jobbers. Every person I fought would end up being champions. Tyfo, M.O.P., and Jonathan Michaels. I fought all of them.

And you know how the fans appreciated me being one of the most fighting-est champions in the history of this company. They championed Jazzman/Bergman and ignored a man who would be there every night.

So Connor, you ask why haven't fought since Lord of the Ring and I respond that it doesn't freaking matter. I don't have to fight every night like you do. You're the TV Champion after all, it comes with the territory. And I'm sure if you weren't TV Champion, you wouldn't fight every single night.

So get off your high horse because at Comic Chaos, that high horse will be getting a good old knockout punch like Mongo from Blazing Saddles liked to do and if you're on it, I won't get the pleasure of hitting you with the Tale's End because you will be too damn busy being trapped under that unconscious horse.

This belt belongs to the Ultimate Survivor and it won't be going to some cocky and greed simpleton like yourself.

*The scene shifts to Connor walking in the woods outside his home. His two dogs playing together as he pauses to look at the camera.*

You know Seth. I've watched what you said over and over again. Mulled it over in my head and the thing I find most ironic is your attitude. You, the man who was CEO, who created his own title at one point in his career calling someone greedy. I just...my mind boggles sometimes when it comes to trying to talk to you because the reality is...or rather isn't, is that you live in your own little world. You make your own rules to play by, your own little quirks and expectations that you expect everyone to follow so you can arm yourself when people do what you don't expect.

Seth you live so far from reality in your little place on the water that even the Ultimate Warrior couldn't find it.

Am I cocky? Sure, I can admit that. But you know what I felt like I earned a bit of a chance to be. For two years I have made a life out of giving my all in the ring. Win or lose I took it and for the most part anytime I faltered or didn't live up to the expectations I set up for myself or that others had in me I took responsibility for it. So if I come off a bit cocky I'll apologize to anyone who feels offended. But greed? No...I'm not greedy.

Seth if anything I look for chances to show I'm not. In ways you can't even understand. Is it greedy of me to meet a man in the ring and shake his hand before or after a match? No Seth, that's respect. That's being man enough to recognize an equal and show the respect and appreciation of someone who I can relate to and admire the work of. I once thought that you might have been someone I could think that of. But the only thing I think of when I look at you is of a warped, sick man who takes great measures to make the lives of anyone else he can miserable.

The problem you have with me isn't that you think I'm greedy, or a simpleton. I am something you can't touch. I am an ideal, an example of something you failed at becoming and it eats away at you. You very well changed Gus. And you might even take a fair amount of due credit for it. But the thing here is I am not Gus Richlen or anyone else. I am the ying to your yang. The opposite side of the spectrum, the light to your dark side. So it's pretty clear to me now coming upon this realization that you and I are never going to see eye to eye. Never going to be able to co-exist in some fashion which is fine by me. Because come Comic Book Chaos Seth you can talk about it being a matter of who is going to be the ultimate survivalist but what it is really going to be is a fight between whether you can extinguish the light you can't stand to look at or I can illuminate the dark that you try to impose on everyone. At Comic Book Chaos Seth, you'll have your final few moments to have the security of the Inter-Forum belt around your waist because when it's over it will be the last bit of security you feel before you step in the ring with me.

They are going to be watching The Digital Dragon, the Iron-Man of the FAWA overcome the odds.

I'll let you and Seth have your own argument and focus on what you've said to me, Connor.

First of all, if somebody had cost you a rematch for the world title by torturing you and then injuring you so bad that it took the better part of six excruciating months to recover from it, you'd probably obsess about that guy too.

Now, if you want to play "Let's Compare Who All We've Beaten"...all right, I'll play.

You've beaten the Inter-Forum Champion? I did that too; I beat Caleb Fourchon when he was the Inter-Forum champ and I was the Champion of Honor, in a champion vs. champion match.

You beat the General of the Monkey Army, the longest reigning Hardcore Champion in the FAWA? I beat a pretty damn famous Hardcore Champion myself in Smokin' Vokoun, and I took the title from him after he took it from the General. Sorry General, but that's how it happened.

You've beaten Bull Ant? Bull Ant, for all of his strength and his TV Title reign, is nothing compared to the Punisher. And I ended the Punisher!

You've beaten Coventry? Pfft, who hasn't?

You've beaten a promising up-and-comer in Jason Flynn? I did the same thing to Scott Martin.

Yeah, most of that stuff happened before my injury. But if my performance over the past month has proven anything, Connor, it's that I'm still as good as I ever was!

I'm undefeated since my return!

And I do not plan on letting you put a stop to that streak at Comic Book Chaos!

Well, I've already seen a white knight in Colt and I gave him an I4I. Connor, I am the dragon that kills every knight and you are no different.

I know you're in here.....I've known since you entered.....you'r shoes, they squeak. You're probably wondering where I've been.....Well...after the "Incident" where I created and paraded out my IG title, they thought it best that I sequester myself......as it turns out Open Audience Challenges are a damn good way to get the FAWA Sued by the overly litigious types.....

Yeah.....did NOT think that'un through.....Welp that's not MY problem!

Anyway...this Comical Booklet Supercard? I must admit I AM a fan of the 4 Color Funnybooks.......

Never thought I'd be IN one though, could be interesting.....*Hrrm*

I just kind of wanted to get into the SPIRIT of the thing......

*Looks up, to reveal he's died his Hair Green, and has Stark white face-paint......and a Red Smile far larger than his mouth.*

Too Much?

[Oak: Certified Jade Hater]

*The camera opens on the world-famous Hollywood sign in sunny Hollywood, California. The camera stays on the sign for a few seconds before it cuts to Michael Hayden, sitting on the sign. Hayden smiles at the camera as he looks out into the city.*

There's been a lot of talk lately from Gus Richlen. About how I have no honor, no class, no decency. How I respect no one but demand it. That's not the case at all.

It's true, I don't like Gus Richlen. I don't respect him. All of Richlen's little group are people who I don not like, but Gus takes it one step further. His ego, his boisterous claims, and his overall attitude over the past couple of months, combined with the fact that he didn't win the FAWA Title in an honorable match, makes me hate the man. Actual, honest to God hate. Because he still believes himself in the right and sees me as an unworthy challenger to the throne. A throne he himself has made.

*Hayden rolls up a sleeve, showing several stitches and wounds.*

I've fought, I've bled for wrestling ever since I stepped foot inside the ring. I put my body on the line against a giant last weekend, and came close to toppling him. These here are badges of honor. But unlike Gus, I'm choosing to rest for a little longer before stepping in a ring to train. The mind is willing, but the body needs to recover.

Which brings us here to Hollywood. These injuries got me some time off, so I decided to visit family. Being on the road doesn't give me a lot of time to see my nieces and nephews, and they like telling their friends their Uncle Mike is on television. Being around them, by my brothers and their wives, it shows me that maybe I can have this one day. Maybe I'll find a woman, fall in love, get married and have kids. Maybe when I leave wrestling, when I'm not travelling up and down the country, I can settle into a nice normal life.

But then I remember that this is what I love to do. That there's very little that will keep me from performing in front of fans. Maybe the day will come when I leave wrestling, but until that day comes I'm going to continue to fight.

Gus, I haven't warped any truth. You just refuse to see it. You've belittled me for months, and now you play the "I'm expecting a fight" card? You, who called me a "Whiny Little Bitch" on more than one occasion now try to portray honor? If I am indeed a hypocrite, you are the gold standard of hypocrites. You overlooked me for months on end until you were FORCED to notice me. Once I became the Lord of the Ring, you had to notice me. And even then, I've dealt with your insults. Your ridicule. And until NiteRaw, I rose above it all. But hearing your words, I knew I had to speak out. I had to let the people know the truth that you've tried to hide for so long. Now, they decide who to cheer and boo. They decide who the hero and villain of this story truly are.

Is it the champion who claimed his throne after a sneak attack? A man who held onto a title and rarely defended it? The man who held three titles when but one month prior, claimed he didn't want to see a monopoly on the belts?

Or the man that earned this shot after beating three men? The man who has endured the slings and arrows time and time again?

Come Comic Book Chaos, we'll know our parts Gus. And the credits will roll on your title reign.

*Martin comes into focus backstage, arm in a sling but with a grin on his face*

And what did I tell you? I did exactly what I said I would and beat Antihero on Pay Per View! No tricks, no interference, nothing. Clean as a whistle. I believe the terms we agreed to said that I would get to pick the next stipulation, and I've chosen... well I'm going to make you sweat for a bit longer. Oh, and if you're wondering about this,

*He gestures to his arm*

Well it's simple chess. My arm may be busted, but I've gained the advantage. Sacrifice a Knight to take a Queen. 3 more matches, and it's checkmate.

Oh and before I forget, Antihero, the next time we face, we're facing off... in a Falls Count Anywhere Match!

Have fun.

*He walks out of the frame and the scene fades to black*

[Mr. Socko's Brother]

All right, all right, I walked into Comic Book Chaos bound and determined to become the next Television Champion and...it didn't shake out that way.

But I'm a big boy. I can deal with it. Sure ain't the first time I've challenged for a title and lost.

The important thing is that I'm Ryan Blood. Ryan f***ing Blood, and that means it's only a matter of time before I'm once again a champion.

As a matter of fact, I might become world champion again.

Why should I get a shot at Hayden, you might be wondering? Glad you asked! See, Hayden himself has acknowledged that in his first attempt at capturing my World Heavyweight Championship--the match that I lost the belt in--he, Hayden, wasn't the one to pin me. Jonathan Michaels was.

PLUS! Plus, because of a chickenshit sneak attack by a certain little troll that left me injured, I never got to exercise my contractually guaranteed rematch clause against Jono while he was champion. So I could argue that it's only fair for me to get a world title match against the guy who has the belt now.

But maybe I won't do that. Maybe I'll stay focused on becoming a tag team champion again, along with the General.

Speaking of the General...dude, why didn't you tell me you were the Man In Black? If I'd known, then I could've been ready to run down and help you fight off Dupoe, Cain, and Nett!

Because I don't like Jeremy Dupoe, and if you're the guy who's been giving him ulcers for months, then I say good for you! It was Dupoe who declared Jono and Hayden both Battle Bowl winners and made me face both of them. I've been holding a grudge against him almost as big as the one against Gussy.

So this Man In Black revelation doesn't bother me at all. I'd be happy to win the tag titles alongside the Man In Black!
