The Sergeant has had a very busy schedule over the past few weeks, but even with the derailment of his UCW match against Damon Black burn last week at the hands of the MCW's top talent the combat tested, mother approved rookie is still on track to make a name for himself in Ultimate Championship Wrestling.
Scene fades in to Sarge outside of a locker room after a recent match for an unmentioned wrestling organization. He's covered with sweat, but has a huge smile on his face. The man honestly looks like he's having the time of his life. A shorter and thinner man who looks to be in his mid-thirties has been interviewing Sarge.
The topic of the conversation appears to have changed.
Man: With all of that out of the way, I'd like to switch things up a little and talk about what's been going on in MCW and UCW over the past couple of weeks. Give us your insight.
Sarge pauses, seeming to measure out his response before officially giving his answer.
The Sergeant: Well, first of all... nothing is going to derail my original reason for going to Ultimate Championship Wrestling in the first place. I came there to make a name for myself and to work out some of the issues that I have been having in the latter half of my rookie year in professional wrestling. I started off on a good track by defeating John Doe... and I kept my undefeated record intact last week at Revolution on a technicality to keep some of that momentum.
But... when you think about it, momentum doesn't mean a thing when you're destroyed from behind by multiple chair shots to the back and head.
I thought that after my actions at MCW Center Stage, maybe the boss would give me a chance to avenge my beatdown by trying to sanction a match between me and the MCW North American Champion, Dakota Smith. That wasn't in the cards for me, but I got something that could be just as valuable in the long run...
I get to step in the ring with three men that are almost legendary in this sport: Marx, Melton, and my tag team partner for this encounter, Kin Hiroshi.
Yours truly has been on somewhat of a mini-roll for the past month or so around the wrestling world, but these three individuals are going to prove whether or not I have enough conditioning, technique, and skill to compete with the big boys down the road...
... and by down the road, I mean Irishred at one hundred percent.
The interviewer interjects...
The Man: What about Dakota Smith?
The Sergeant: Oh, you should know I have him in my sights. Seriously though, he is the short term. Joey Melton and Marx are the "very short-term". I have said it over and over again since I was called out by name on UCW television by the World Champion... I'm here ultimately to shut him up and redeem myself from past misteps.
Sarge looks at the camera.
TS: Joey Melton, Jonathan Marx... I look forward to seeing you two in the ring. If I can hang in that ring with you for the duration of this match, it tells me that I am ready to take that step up here in UCW.
Kin, I plan on making myself the best tag team partner that you'll ever hope for. We showed the world we mean business with MCW losers like Pulsar and Reno Kidd at MCW Center Stage... let's go show these two that we can function on a higher level as a tag team.
Sarge turns from the camera and exits stage left.
The Man: There you have it, ladies and gentlemen. Pointed words from The Sergeant. That is going to be one hell of a tag team match... could this match be stage one on the path to the MCW North American and the UCW World Heavyweight Champions? Stay tuned to this rookie... he has a lot in store for his fans.
The interviewer gives his signature sign off as the scene fades to a commercial...

Official Unofficial FW Party Pimp
** Kin Hiroshi takes a long drag off his cigarette. It’s been a long week, thanks to MCW, and it’s about to get even longer, thanks to UCW. Kin groans; he’s been working like a mule, and breaking his back to stand still among the best talent the world has to offer in UCW. Sitting on a street curb probably doesn’t help any, but at least he’s off his feet for a moment.
At least, he’s anywhere but IN the gutter. **
KIN HIROSHI: “Sometimes a man has to take a stand.
“Sometimes, the hardest decision is deciding which side of the road to stand on.
“The difficulty for me wasn’t deciding what side of the street to stand on. No, that was easy. My loyalties are with UCW, that much is apparent.
“No, the difficulty for me was deciding when to cross the street, and who to take with me.
“Last week I made the charge for UCW; the retaliation, as it seems to be called backstage. Those mid-card lifers over at MCW seem to think that they can get into the limelight with the right funding behind them.
“Kids, you’re kidding yourselves. It’s not about how much money you try to throw at the problem, it’s about the knowledge and skills you obtain that makes you famous.
“Kin Hiroshi isn’t famous because he wrestles for UCW, or anywhere else around the world. What I am famous for is being able to put on a good match and entertain better than most people in this business.
“Yet, your plight remains. You seem to think that if you take something over, you can be on top. Honestly, you think that by trying to take us over, and forcing men, like me, further down on the card, that you will be stars?
“Please. Save your whining for someone who cares, because, frankly, I’m tired of it. So is UCW’s Secretary of Homeland Defense, The Sarge. See, Sarge and I did a little talking after MCW showed up here and tried to throw their weight around.
“You guys want to try and take out a deserving athlete like Sarge? Fine, we will just come back to you, and end the careers of men like Pulsar and the Reno Kidd: men who weren’t going to succeed at all anyways; men that nobody knows and nobody cares about.
“MCW, you threw down the gauntlet, and now, UCW has drawn the line in the sand. If you think you can do whatever you want, you’re sadly mistaken. If you want to be the best in the business and feel like a company like UCW is ‘keeping you down’, then hit the weights and the practice ring, and get a contract to work with us.
“Until then, quit your *****ing because I’ve got better things to do than dismantle your roster, one-by-one.
“Things like Joey Melton and Jonathan Marx.
“Not alone, mind you, but with the newest member of my war council, Sarge.
“Sarge, when we marched into MCW, I could see the rage in your eyes. I could feel the anger and hatred for MCW flowing from you. Hell, when you cold-cocked Pulsar, I don’t think I’ve seen a harder punch thrown, and I’ve seen a lot of punches thrown.
“But this week is different. This week it’s not some gangbang on the weak and downtrodden backstage. This week we have two men who are legends in their own rights.
“Joey Melton. What else do I have to say, Joey? I mean, over the course of the past year, I think I’ve everything that I’ve had to say to you. I mean, I could go on and on, again, about the Cameron Cruise Project. I could say, once more, how you’re time is gone and you’re washed up: ‘Make way for The Muffin Man’.
“Not this time, Mr. Melton. This time I give you a wink, a nod, and a competitive handshake, because it’s the most professional courtesy you’ve seen from me, and the most courtesy you’ll ever see from me.
“I trained to face men just like you Joey: champions amongst champions. I’ve done my damnedest to get to where I am today too. Yet, that one precious, little heirloom has hung from your waist so many times, and it has yet to find its way to mine.
“Now, Jonathan Marx is a man who think that Kin Hiroshi isn’t worthy of a world championship.
“**** you, Jonathan Marx.
“Every time that I’ve wrestled you, you try and discredit my ability. Well, you suck ass too. I see you talking **** every week, and every week you’re the same smarmy asshole that goes home after thinking he got way over and bangs the frumpy prostitute because he figures, ‘Fat chicks need lovin’ too.’
“You’re overrated, Marx. You’re sloppier in the ring than the drag queens you pick up post-event, and you’re redundant and bland.
“Don’t even bother showing up, because every time we wrestle, whether I win or lose, I teach you new things. I’m tired of mentoring someone against my will, and your personal wrestling clinics are over.
“Read my lips, I’m done with you. You’re a crumpled up piece of paper, tossed in the recycle bin.
“That’s right, not the trash, but the recycle bin. Because now that I’ve put my mark all over you, you’re bound be made into something new that thinks he can take over the world, but the fact remains that even though you’ve been branded by The Muffin Man, inside you’re still the lame-ass, pathetic, overrated has-been of a wrestler.
“Leave the wrestling up to the professional athletes, and go to MCW and the bush leagues.
“Hack.”
At least, he’s anywhere but IN the gutter. **

MELTON: What the **** is MCW?
Where the **** am I?
Hey, is that Kin Hiroshi under new creative direction?
All valid questions, indeed. I guess I should comment on the merger, and learn the names of the new faces in the back...wait. No. No I shouldn't.
I sure as hell hope that a man wrestling under the monkitor of "Sarge" is coming to the ring as a Iraqi War veteran, claiming to have lost 60% of his hearing and writing a little bit of social commentary each week. You know, have a song and dance. Otherwise, my life just got dumber and I never expected that to happen in UCW until contract month seven.
Hiroshi. I admire you. I wish I had an ounce of your talent. Standing next to you in a urinal is not for the faint of heart.
You one day will cure cancer. This land is not your land.
Sorry, what do you really want me to say to a man who begins the publicity for every match with, "One day I'll win a meaningful title. One day I'll grow to be a foot taller." No, no you won't. You ****ing sold muffins once. It's the law. No man can be great at two things. This is your lot. This is your curse.
Marx. UCW brass has left it in my hands to drag you from the lost wilderness of Camp Wannabeastar and shower you with relevancy again. I made Cameron Cruise sell and he never went to college. You, with luck, will be a cake walk.
This is about a paycheck boys. And me not remembering why the **** I agreed to come here. But to make it interesting, Marx and I will put a bag of our nighty fee doubled twenty feet above the ring, and if you beat us you'll actually be able to take that vacation you've always dreamed of. But if you lose, and you will, Team Brainpower gets to spin you where you stand twenty times then knock the **** out of you with a cane.
You see, it's the **** jobs where you have to look most for inspiration and humility.

I shunned a voodoo witch, decapitated a black cat
::Marx & Jacobs are sitting in a muffin shop, slowly sipping coffee as they eat their muffins on a sunny day in Princeton, New Jersey::
::Marx leans back in his chair stretching his back::
JONATHAN MARX: It is beautiful day to be alive, isn’t it?
BRANDON JACOBS: You seem a lot more chipper than usual.
JONATHAN MARX: As a third generation wrestler, I worked my whole life to win a World Heavyweight Title and now that I finally have done it in NEW, I feel like this great burden has finally been lifted off my shoulders. All the stress that has consumed me over the last year is gone and I feel like a new man. Now, if I play my cards right, the UCW World Heavyweight Title may be soon to follow along with the Unified Title.
BRANDON JACOBS: Lets not get ahead of ourselves, you have a tag match with Melton against Sarge & our good friend Kin Hiroshi.
::Marx begins to laugh as he picks at his corn muffin::
JONATHAN MARX: Kin is upset that I constantly point out that he is as Japanese as apple pie and really, who can blame him? Him passing for Japanese is like Wayne Brady passing for African American especially when I school him in the areas he claims to be an expert in.
BRANDON JACOBS: Kin Hiroshi talking trash would work a lot better if he had a win over you to back it up. If he claims that you’re a has been and he can’t even beat you, what does that make him?
JONATHAN MARX: Don’t make too much sense, it will confuse him. But lets get down to the truth, I could totally mail my performance in, I could get hit in the back of the head rendering myself more brain dead than Sarge, I could start seeing hallucinations, and Melton and I would still trounce them easily because even on my worst day, I’m better than Cameron Cruise.
BRANDON JACOBS: They really should be allowed a third man on their team to make this match interesting otherwise they are going to be humbled like they have never been humbled before.
JONATHAN MARX: Melton and I may not get along, but I’m putting that all aside for one night because I want to go into the World Title match victorious. This is our chance to show everyone the power of the old school revolution and show these two the difference between boys and men.
BRANDON JACOBS: Hell, when you are done with two boys, even Beau Michaels won't touch them.
::Marx laughs and gazes out the window as people pass by::
JONATHAN MARX: Oh, do you know the muffin man, The muffin man, the muffin man, Oh, do you know the muffin man, That lives on Drury Lane?

Sarge is in front of a UCW backdrop, cutting a traditional promo for his upcoming tag team match.
The Sergeant: Overlooked, as usual. I've become so accustomed to it in my new profession that it really doesn't bother me anymore. It does, however, make me laugh just a little bit. I really can't understand why people do it, week after week. I mean, I know my win loss record around the circuit isn't the greatest... but I'm turning it all around... and up a notch if I do say so myself.
Kin's got all of our opponents' attention for the time being. That means that I'm supposed to be comfortable just sitting there as a side note. A formality. You know what I'm saying? I'm supposed to sit there and let the bigger names have all of their fun. Get beat up a little bit and then tag in Kin to clean house and win or lose the match on his own terms.
There's one big problem with that idea. That would mean Kin would have to basically be in a handicapped match... and he didn't ask me to tag with him just to sit on the sidelines or get slapped around. He wants me to bring my technical wrestling ability and the intensity that I'm known around the circuit for. He wants the Sergeant that defeated the UCW World Heavyweight Champion, Irishred. He wants the Sergeant that defeated James Irish.
It looks like that's the tag team partner that he's going to get.
Say what you want about me being an overhyped rookie, a gimmick, or a guy who simply thrashed two no-names in a no-name fed in a backstage attack. I have more than a few quality wins on my resume to warrant just a little bit of your attention.
Or not... it's totally up to you. Don't make me pressure you into a situation you don't feel comfortable with.
Maybe Jonathan Marx and Joey Melton can get added to the rookie's resume?
A muffin man and a combat tested, mother approved rookie's resume, at that.
See you soon.
Scene fades to black.

MELTON: Of course your win-loss record isn't the greatest. That's why the **** you're in UCW. Make no mistakes about it Sarge, this is the MINOR LEAGUES of professional wrestling. The U in the alpahbet soup you might find on Kin Hiroshi's professional journey to get to know and the rub off REAL stars in this business.
There's a reason Marx and I have contracted ourselves to be spooned by you irritants.
The economy is ****. Unless you're in the health care field there are more people than jobs in this world. I'm sticking to doing what I know best. MAKE FEDS and names. California's not the only one with an energy crisis. This business as a whole has one. That's why your PPV check won't cash, and mine will.
I know the entertainment you're used to Sarge. Ignorant Playboy bunnies visit the poor, bred dumb soliders in Iraq and sign calendars and tease blowjobs behind nuclear warheads. Allow Marx and I to read Russian Literature to you. Allow us to broaden your horizons so that one day, and more likely sooner rather than later, when this business stops hiring you...you have the urge to run back to school and get that 1 year diploma at a junior college.
We're the show.
We're the stars.
And if ratings and gold follow your name, you can be damn sure it's because Marx and I are pulling you to water.
