My Favorite Wrestler
[Fade in with John Doe sitting in front of the Empire State Building John looks around as he sets eyes upon it. He gazes looking bouncing his tennis ball, he stops bouncing the ball as he looks at the camera]
“ It’s is wonderful isn’t it? The first tallest building ever, this is where King Kong got his bullets put in him and he was ended. And this is where I stand. Of course King Kong was a movie and this is real life. Unlike others that think this is a game. Well sort to speak it is a game, a game that I have mastered easily. I have came into NWL and am still here with more knowledge than when I came here, I have had my fair square of title shots, such as the TV title, which Jarod Poe still has around his belt. Know I look away from that and look at the present staying here in the present is all that matters really. If I focus here I get my act together and then I become the best. Well one man is standing in my path of greatness. He knows who he is, and I will make notice of him, his name easy as said “Yours Truly” Adam Benjamin.”
“Now we have all seen Adam around NWL and EPW, in fact last time I checked he was the IC Champ of EPW, but that is a different federation this is NWL my friends not and thing else. This is one of the few best federations there is today, except for CWSA of course. So I face off with one of the best wrestlers I think there is, Adam Benjamin. I admire and I take great honor stepping in the ring with the man, but don’t take me lightly Adam, as much as I like you doesn’t mean I don’t dislike you. Let’s take a grand look at this Adam.”
“See YT (Yours Truly) I have seen you wrestle, and I enjoy it. You aren’t as boring as some of these fellows around this place, but just because I say this doesn’t mean I am brown nosing or anything, and to think that I am will make me angered. With my anger comes destruction and that is something you do not want unleashed upon you at Combat. I warn you Adam do not anger someone such as myself it will cost you dearly in the long run. “
“Although I know the type of fellow you are and to say that you are a worthy opponent is also ironic, being that you are a cheating loser. No offense Adam, but I have seen the dirty side of your wrestling in EPW, and I do not play that way. So on the contrary YT I do wish to break your bones in that friendly sort of way. Catch my drift?”
[John opens the door to the Empire State and walks in as he glances around looking around for the stairwell. John pauses for a second and bounces his tennis ball]
“Well I get to face off with you it is quite interesting, I thought I was going to have to face off with someone like Jarod Poe or Ryan Cruz, looks like to bookies are actually become nicer and not making a mess of this federation. Well it seems that I am moving up the rankings here, you Adam are not to get in my way, if you take my word for it. So Benjamin what is it that makes you so darn good anyway?
Ah, it was your cheating that got you this far, your ignorant bliss of thoughts may be telling you to retaliate against what I am saying, but I a sure you Adam do not do something you will not get anything from.”
“Adam I do not like the fact that I had to face off with a bunch of nobodies my first couple of weeks, now I am going to face off with you, a true wrestler. I think that I will learn much from this victory, that I will have, and you will learn a lot from the loss you will encounter. Ironic isn’t it, I get to face off with the man I shadow most of my wrestling style off of…who knew.”
“This may prove my true potential, my goal if you will, it’s based upon how good I can do against a great. If I win, I win knowing I have defeated one of the best, but if I lose, I lose losing to the best, practically either way is to my advantage. If I were you Adam I would fight for the TV Championship I have great faith you can beat Jarod Poe, one because I hate the man with a passion and two because you are that good of a wrestler. Not as good as me, but a good wrestler non the less. And I have total faith in you and that you can get pinned by the likes of me.”
[John stops the tennis balls as he opens the door to the stairwell he looks up the stairs making a face about the length. John walks out of the stairwell. And walks to the elevator]
‘Damn this place has too many stairs, anyway…”
“I really think that this is going to be a great match between you and me Adam just because I want to beat the living crap out of a guy and because it is a stepping stone for me. If I defeat you, which I will, then it is going to be a swell day. For you Adam it is going to be a bad say, a very bad day for one of many reasons you lost to me. That is kind of a good thing if you think about it at least you were beat by the best. Not including you of course. Then I will walk out with a clear-cut victory and you my friend will walk out as you came…a loser. It is ok thought, I will give you a run for your money, you will have to rain your balls off to defeat me, but with all good time you will see that I am better.”
“Think about it Adam, think about it very clear, you and me facing off at Combat you and will should be the main event don’t you agree? But we do not highlight that section of the card. I think we are the middle of it, with good time my friend will you and I emerge to the top of the card, and when that time comes I will hold the greatest of titles the NWL World Heavyweight Belt! Adam if you reach it to the belt before I do make sure you give me a title shot so I can beat you gain, like I am going to do at Combat. What I am going to do for you is going to save you a lot of trouble in the long run, see if I defeat you now then later you will know that I am greater. Interesting isn’t it?”
[John presses a button to the elevator as the lights at the top of it blink. John whistles as he waits. He turns back to a camera]
“But what is truly interesting is what is going to happen at Combat. See at Combat I am going to teach you a dear lesson, one that is unavoidable. See this lesson is going ot be great, and it is going ot be the best one you will see in your life, see you will face off with me Adam, not only me but with yourself. See I mirrored my moves off you, so you better know yourself before you can step up to me. Adam I am going to show you why I am better see I am better for three solid reasons.”
1. I am quicker
2. I am smarter
3. I am Greater
“The three I Am’s of John Doe. See I am all of those things and you aren’t. This is going to be a breaking point that I am going to prove to you, see I will prove all of those facts, and probably more. If I prove those Adam, well then there is nothing left for me to prove, I have beating Adam Benjamin well YT what do you think, I know you think that is the truth you are just not willing to admit it.”
[John enters the elevator as it climbs up John turns back to the camera as he chooses the floor he wants to stop at]
“You are trying to keep me down, well gentlemen this is where I break free. Sorry YT you are have to be my example to the fans, to the wrestlers, and more importantly TO THE WORLD YT! Get it through your head that I am going to be invincible and I will be a champion, that championship is undecided. But what is decided what is set in stone is your fate YT, your fate is going to happen at Combat, your fate I simple and plain, you will lose. “
[The elevator dings, as John steps out, he looks out the windows the New York Skyline colorful with skyscraper lights]
“I love this view, Actually this is the first time I have been up here.”
“Well Adam I think that you and me have a lot to work on? I have a match to train for and you have a match to lose. I am going to walk out victorious and you my good friend are going to walk with another loss to your record. So Adam, I wish you luck, not like it is going to do you any good, but I wish you luck non the less. See at Combat Adam, and don’t forget “I Am Not Just Anyone…I Am John Doe!”
