What'd I Miss?

As promised, Storm, Roode, and Jarrett won their six-man tag team match against Angle, Lashley, and Hardy. This week, though, Storm's on his own against Lashley and Chyna. How will this end up? Tune in and see.

Roleplay

As we come back from some random commercial talking about sexual issues, food, beer, or your local attorney's office, the screen is completely black. One would think that some idiot in the truck just forgot to push a button or was too busy tryin to get a peice of ass he'll never have, but that isn't the case this week. No, instead, a logo shows up after a few minutes that reads "DEAR COWBOY" in big, bold, red lettering on a yellow background.

Apparently we're going to see the beginning of a new segment tonight, and knowing WIW's collective minds, it'll be fairly interesting. As the logo fades out, we see a guy, no more than his mid-twenties in age, sitting behind a table with another chair, oddly empty, beside him. He looks like your usual lackey, dressed in a company shirt layered over a white button up shirt and slacks; his dark hair, dark eyes, and a dark beard and moustache gorwing in. He doesn't really seem like the type that's in front of a camera very often, and his nerves show in his voice when he starts talking.

Hello, WIW fans. Welcome to the first edition of Dear Cowboy, which is a new segment that's going to be featured weekly starting, well, this week. My name is Alex Iz, and, um, as the name states, we're going to be talking with "The Tennessee Cowboy" James Storm and asking him some questions that come directly from you, the fans. Now with, um, no further adieu, let's present the man who'll be answering these questions... "The Tennessee Cowboy" James Storm.

Storm walks in from the side and sits down as his theme plays in the background, no doubt just a CD on some random person's portable CD player, given the quality of it. As Storm gets comfortable in the chair, Alex shuffles the papers in front of him nervously, apparently a stack of printed out emails from Storm's official WIW.com inbox. During the nervous silence Alex has created, we can see that Storm is dressed in a green t-shirt with his usual black jacket over it that has the "Storm's Bar and Grill" logo emblazoned on the back. Worn out jeans are his pant of choice for tonight, and as always, the ever present black cowboy hat is on his head with his shades sheilding his eyes from the bright production lights. After Storm takes a sip from his beer, Alex starts talking again.

Welcome to the show, Cowboy. Now as I just said, this is called Dear Cowboy, and it's a new segment that WIW is going to be airing on a weekly basis starting tonight, where you answer questions that the fans send in. Are you, um, ready for our first question?

« the tennessee cowboy james storm »
Yeah, but can I ask you a question first?

« wiw.com interviewer alex iz »
Yeah.. yeah, um, I guess so. What's your question?

« the tennessee cowboy james storm »
What is you?

« wiw.com interviewer alex iz »
What is... I think you mean what am I, right?

« the tennessee cowboy james storm »
Pfft... no.. I said what is you. Your name is Alex Iz, right?

« wiw.com interviewer alex iz »
Well, yeah, but.... oh, I get it... Alex Iz, what is I? Very clever, Cowboy.

« the tennessee cowboy james storm »
Thank you.. now you can ask your questions.

Alex looks at the camera, a bit confused, as Storm looks proud of himself for making an obvious, albeit grade-school age joke. Reading the paper on the table in front of him, Alex nods slightly before looking over at Storm and asking the first question.

« wiw.com interviewer alex iz »
Alright, Cowboy.. this first question is from David in Ohio. David asks, 'What is your favorite time of the day?'

« the tennessee cowboy james storm »
Favorite time of the day, huh? And this is from who? David in Ohio? A'ight.. well, David in Ohio, I'd have to say my favorite time of the day is beer-thirty.

« wiw.com interviewer alex iz »
Beer-thirty? What.. I've never heard of that, Cowboy. When's beer-thirty?

« the tennessee cowboy james storm »
Beer-thirty.. you know, beer-thirty... every thirty minutes, you have another beer. Beer-thirty.

« wiw.com interviewer alex iz »
Beer-thirty... of course. Why didn't I think of that?

« the tennessee cowboy james storm »
Cause you're stupid. Next question.

« wiw.com interviewer alex iz »
-moves the paper aside- Okay, this next question comes to us from Daniel in Florida, who asks ---

« the tennessee cowboy james storm »
Wait, wait, wait... you said Daniel in Florida, right?

« wiw.com interviewer alex iz »
Yeah, that's right...

« the tennessee cowboy james storm »
And the other one was David in Ohio, right?

« wiw.com interviewer alex iz »
That's right.

« the tennessee cowboy james storm »
Heh heh heh... double D's... you know what that reminds me of?

« wiw.com interviewer alex iz »
No, what?

« the tennessee cowboy james storm »
Traci Brooks!

He laughs as if it's the funniest thing he's ever heard as Alex just sits there and shakes his head.

« wiw.com interviewer alex iz »
Yeah.. that's.. funny, Cowboy.. really. -moves the paper aside to avoid the joke again- Okay, this next question comes to us from Paige in Maine, who asks, 'Dear James, what is your favorite day to go out and drink?'

He flicks the mic over towards Storm, who sits there for minute thinking before he answers.

« the tennessee cowboy james storm »
My favorite day to go out and drink? Pfft... all the days that end in Y, of course! What kinda stupid question is that? When do I ever not wanna go out and drink? Hell, I send people out on beer runs every hour if I gotta stay in for somethin... I mean, it's a bitch when I have to work and can't go out when I want to, but as soon as that damn show's over, I'm hittin the bars with my pubcrawlers, ya know?

« wiw.com interviewer alex iz »
Yeah.. that sounds.. fun. Alright.. last question.. and it comes from Kait in England. She asks what your thoughts are on drunk drivers.

« the tennessee cowboy james storm »
I don't like 'em. I don't like 'em at all, and I'll tell ya why. My two stepbrothers were killed in a drunk driving accent, and they weren't even the ones drinking. If I ever find a drunk driver, I'm gonna beat the livin' crap right out of them til they get the damn hint that you ain't s'posed to do that. Besides.. driving drunk is like driving with the radio on. It's a distraction. Who the hell wants to drive while they're tryin to drink, anyway? You hit one bump, and it's all over. Beer spills everywhere, and that... that should be a sin, if not a crime. That's alcohol abuse right there. You know, I should run for sherriff. Sheriff of Beertown. That way, I'd stop all this drunk drivin and alcohol abuse before it even starts. It's wrong.. just wrong.

« wiw.com interviewer alex iz »
You.. you do have a point, but you're going in the wrong direction with it. Anyway, that's all for the first edition of Dear Cowboy. If you have a question for "The Tennessee Cowboy" James Storm, just write in via WIW.com, and maybe we'll get an answer for you right here next week from the one and only James Storm. Before we leave, though... James, do you have any words of advice for our viewers out there?

« the tennessee cowboy james storm »
Yeah, I do. I find it real easy to go by these words every day, and you should too. If you can't get 'er done, get 'er drunk!

As James laughs at his own joke again, Alex gets up to leave, but James stops him, yanking him back down into the chair. Looking at him, Alex shrugs, asking why he stopped him.

« the tennessee cowboy james storm »
Where the hell do you think you're goin?

« wiw.com interviewer alex iz »
Well I was leaving, James. The show's over.

« the tennessee cowboy james storm »
The show may be over, ya genius, but you forgot somethin.

« wiw.com interviewer alex iz »
What's that?

James leans down and picks up a battered green duffel bag off the floor and shoves it into Alex's chest, making him grab onto it.

« the tennessee cowboy james storm »
You're carryin my bags, boy. -He stands up.- Now come on, let's go. We got bars to hit before the show.

Sighing, Alex gets up and follows Storm out as the scene fades out.



Since the idiot didn't get to it during his little interview, I guess I'll have to tell you what I think about who I'm facing by my damn self. First of all, this is my first singles match here, and it's against Lashley and Chyna. Lashley I know, Chyna I don't.. but I hear she's a woman.. or used to be. Lashley I've faced before... two times before, if you want numbers... Chyna I haven't. What makes either of them good enough to face me?

First off, I didn't know Lashley and Carlito had a son til I saw Consequences Creed back in TNA. I guess that goes to show what kinda man he is... and I ain't gonna get those gay rights people on my ass for outing him. Heh.. gay rights people on my ass... I'm sure they'd love that. Thing is, I wouldn't, and I wanna avoid that. Lashley ain't much to deal with, and the last two matches against him proved it. He was in my first match here and I won that even with seven other guys to deal with. My last match with him was last week, and hell, I won that one too. Safe to say I'll win this one, so I ain't gonna waste any more time on this guy.

A'ight, whoever this Chyna chick is, if she looks half as bad as everyone says she does, I'm gonna need a few more beers to even look at her, let alone face her. I've heard she used to be a chick, I've heard she used to be a dude, I've heard she used to be both, and none of those used to be's make me too happy to be facing her. At least I can look at ODB and not have to down a few six packs before then... iono what the hell I'm facing with Chyna. Hopefully I won't need a whole bar to back me up in this, but if I do, I got my pubcrawlers out in the crowd that'll be more than happy to gimmie a beer.

All I got left to say about this is... Lashley, Chyna... sorry.. bout your damn luck.
