††Location: Local Gym, Downtown New Jersey.††
†Date: September 3rd, 2012 2:20 P.M.†I haven't had much sleep last night; I mean how could I rest knowing damn well that I've been screwed over in my last match? I remembered watching the video feed and looking at the replay where the reff was counting the pin, I clearly kicked out just before his hand smacked the floor a 3rd time. Turns out I wasn’t alone on this; many people backstage said the same exact thing: I got robbed in my match against Stefan Raab.
Well I said I was going to make an impact in that match and I'll be damned if I was just gonna leave and not keep that promise. So I waited until Stefan got right back up and I just let him have it, I kicked him in the jaw really hard, hard enough to knock him back down. I was enraged, pissed beyond pissed, the reff had already left the ring but I didn't care, I could always deal with him later right now I had other fish to fry.
I took a pair of handcuffs and strapped Stefan behind the turnbuckle and then doused his German ass in whiskey. Don't get me wrong I never drink the stuff myself but the cool thing I love about alcohol is that it's highly flammable. I took my lighter and got right into Stefan's face, I made it extremely clear that he only got lucky and that the reff was being a complete moron. Oddly enough even though I had Stefan right there in my grasp, his life in the palm of my hand, I decided there and then to spare him. But not before bashing his head with the blunt end of my mic and left him there to be tended by the medics as I looked on from a distance. I knew why I didn't burn him there and then, because I knew we would end up fighting each other again at some point. Stefan came into this fight thinking he could get off easy with me but found out that I am more of a threat than he thought. In fact I'm willing to bet that he bribed that reff because he knew that he wasn’t gonna walk out of the arena with a clean win over me. The fact that I came this close to setting him on fire in front of all those people was all the proof I needed.
Since then the interviewers and commentators kept talking about the result of our match, calling it the most controversial moment in ASWF history. I was also given a new nickname coined by the commentators; they started calling me Baron Best in the World Tomson. When you got people who work for the company longer than you to call you "Best in the World" you know you're doing something right.
Still it didn't do much to ease my frustration, so to say I was pissed would be putting it mildly. I wanted to find the bastard who counted that pin and beat the living shit out of him, then snap his fucking neck and stick his head up his own ass so that he could see just how badly he messed up. I was quiet during the whole plane trip back home, I glared at every person that looked at me, I had my arms folded most of the time, I was a complete mess to say the least.
Next morning I didn't eat breakfast and instead took off at the local gym, I just wanted to forget that match and move on. I grabbed my towel, my extra set of clothes and started working on the machines, all the while I kept telling myself that Stefan will get his soon enough. The next time we square off, he won't have a crooked reff to buy him out of another cheap victory and I will have him right where I want him. Just the thought of see him running around as the flames lick his skin and hearing his girly screams put a smile on my face. I would soon feel better after a while and finally manage to convince myself that last week was just a fluke and nothing more. I would do some bench pressing having one of the guys from the gym be my spotter, I got to about 40 when my phone went off. The guy helped me set the weight back on the bench as I sat back up and dug into my pocket for the phone. I hit the switch as I reached for the water bottle on the side.
Baron Tomson: Talk to me.???: Baron it's Cody man, Cody Taylor.Baron Tomson: How did you get this number?Cody Taylor: I have ways, trust me.Baron Tomson: *sighs* This had better be good, I'm not in the best mood to be talking right now.Cody Taylor: Yeah I can tell, listen I need you to come back to the ASWF building as soon as you can.Baron Tomson: For what exactly?Cody Taylor: I can't tell you right now, just get your ass down here. I'll be seeing you.He would hang up before I could say another word to him, as if my day couldn’t be more fucked up. I tried to relax and work out, and here comes Mr. Taylor to ruin the ride. What could possibly be so damn important that he needs me to head over to where he is?
Well as much I wanted to stay here and work out some more, I figured I outta head over there and see what's up. I got up from the bench which would soon be taken over by another guy, headed straight for the showers washing off all the sweat from my body and using the shampoo that I brought with me to wash my hair and body. Once I got out and got dressed in my extra clothes, I replaced the bag with my old clothes and combed my hair back the way I had it. Once I was done, I bolted out the door and tossed the bag in the back seat. I revved the engine and shoot out towards the airport, good thing for Cody I had money on me to be doing all this fucking running around. I could be putting this up in the bank or use it for more important purposes like getting food and shit but nope, instead I had to go all the way back to where they held the last show and speak with Cody. Great time I'm having right now.......good thing I still got my lighter with me, got a funny feeling I'm going to need it.
††Location: ASWF building.††
†Date: September 3rd, 2012 4:25 P.M.†I arrived out of that airport quick as a flash, I didn't fuck around either I just want to find out what Cody wants to talk to me about and go back home. It's been a stressful day already and I haven't even checked my twitter or anything yet. I haven't been on the internet since the day before I left for the show which was last week. I don't plan on jumping on my laptop anytime soon but I would love to just chill out on the coach and watch some action films before the next event. I already looked at the card for this week, I am going against Mark Hunter who seems to have a pretty bad record, just the kind of person I need to let some steam out. I arrived at the building when I noticed something very strange......several people that I've never seen before kept going in and out of the place, some were moving stuff from inside the building to one of the many loading trucks they had stationed nearby. Now I'm really curious so I got out of my car and slamed the door shut, I moved to the side as someone opened the door carrying some bags filled with posters. I went in through the open door and didn't get halfway until a guard stopped me in my tracks.
Officer: Excuse me sir but you're not permitted to enter this building.I gave him a weird look and was about to say something but a voice called out.
???: Let him through, I told him to come here!The guard turned and moved away allowing me to continue, I just gave him a sneer before I walked forward to where I could see three people ahead of me. All of them are wearing formal suits; I could see Cody in his black polyester suit complete with matching pants and shoes as well as a tie. I couldn’t help but smirk at that, never in a million years would I ever seen Cody wear a suit.
I then noticed a taller man with blond hair with a pretty looking woman who I presume is his wife or something. Anyway they all noticed me as I just stood there with a dumbfounded look on my face, hands in my pocket and head tilted to the side. My first thought that was running through my head is "Alright what gives, the fuck is going on here?"
Seems Cody must have read my thoughts because he smiled and greeted me.
Cody Taylor: Ahh there he is, this is one of the guys I told you about Corey, he is one of the fastest rising stars we have here!Corey? The larger man smiled towards me and extended his hand.
Corey Casey: You must be Baron "Blaze" Tomson, I'm Corey Casey one of the owners of Insurgency Wrestling Federation. I looked at his hand and then held out my hand as I tried to process what was going on, Corey noticed my confusion and lowered his hand. I turned towards Cody and looked around at what used to be the ASWF building which is now slowly being torn apart.
Baron Tomson: Whoa whoa hold it, Insurgency what? What is going on here Cody?Cody laughed at my confused expression but then recovered quick as Corey was looking at him, he scratch his head and faced me.
Cody Taylor: Well where do I start.........we've been bought over by Corey and the guys back in IWF. I had a meeting with some people and we were able to come to an agreement. This is why I called you over here to discuss that agreement.Baron Tomson: Okay.......Cody Taylor: See it's like this: All the members from ASWF will be offered a new and improved contract from IWF with full control to do as they wish. In return you are expected to perform whenever you are required to and if you showed the same spark that brought you to this dance, you'll become champion in no time!Corey Casey: Which is what me and Cody were discussing about, see we're beginning our 4th Battle for the Breifcase tournament where you fight for a chance to make any match you want for one week and cash in for any title any time you want in any match you want.Baron Tomson: Alright.......so where do I fit into all this?Cody Taylor: Well Corey here is thinking about adding some of the guys from ASWF into the tournament, if you want you can enter it as well, you just need to sign a contract and poof you're in.I had to think about this, this was really unexpected for me, I mean ASWF was one of the first feds I joined in my young career, The only other of course being TEW and I don't wanna talk about that shithole of a place. I thought about it, and it only took me about 10 seconds to make a choice.
Baron Tomson: So where do I sign?Corey Casey: Glad you asked.He produced a nice looking notebook pad with the contract in nice bold writing, he handed me a fountain pen and after reading it for a moment or two, I signed on the dotted line and handed it back to him. He smiled as he checked the contract, he then extended his hand to me.
Corey Casey: Let me be the first to welcome you aboard the Insurgency Baron Tomson.I smiled and returned the handshake, giving him a firm shake.
Baron Tomson: That's Blaze to you sir. So where is this, IWF place going to be held at?Corey Casey: You'll receive a mail telling you the exact details, you can also check out the website there, it will be updated soon. Don't worry Cody told me your address and stuff so you should expect some mail within a day or two, here's my card.He hands me the card that contains the link to the site as well as his phone number in case I had any questions for him. I put it in my pocket and nodded, I was already loving this idea, in fact I loved it some much that I completely forgot about Stefan and the revenge that I was denied. Oh well, there's plenty of fish in the sea, sometimes you’ll miss a catch or two. It doesn’t matter to me because I now have a new target in mind, and it seems I've moved up the ladder and rightfully so. I nodded to both men and turned to leave the building behind me, I wasn’t angry or enraged anymore, in fact I was excited.....the Battle for the Briefcase......so many people to beat, so many new faces to destroy and burn.
I would be a complete idiot to refuse; I mean how can I pass up an opportunity like that? It just screams me; it just screams Baron Blaze Tomson.
††Unknown Location, The Shoot.††Well here I am, what you thought you were gonna get that pansy Duke Dice? Not a chance in hell lady, we both know he's completely pathetic. Only real reason he got this job is because he's been kissing up to his pal Steel Angel, fucking stupid if you ask me. The guy has done nothing to earn his spot in this tournament.
Well that's where I come in baby, see I don't know if he got the memo or not but trust me, he will soon enough.
So with that said, Rosa is it? The Queen of Wrestling, a title that centers on a very small faction of people. I mean seriously who else is there to compete for that belt? You've defended that title against the same woman twice in a row and the only other girl was chasing after an inactive belt that belongs to a person who is just too much for her to handle. She might have gotten close but as everyone here can tell you, close never fucking cuts it. You either win or you lose doesn’t matter how "close" you got in the end.
You don't know me but you will learn to hate me, despise me because I don't play nice with anyone little girl. Yeah imagine me, the young gun calling a veteran diva a "little" girl. Must be because you mean very little to me and the truth of the matter is......you don't! I've fought many of these so called "Main Eventers" and "Top Stars" but in the end when it comes time to put up or shut up, I shut them up alright with my boot in their face and their face on the floor picking up whatever teeth they had before they go sobbing in a corner. You're just another wannabe trying to hang with the big leagues but you find yourself being completely outshined every time. Doesn’t matter what you do, be it you putting on the best performance you can or end up killing yourself just to get people to feel sorry for you. Either way the only thing these people care about is who wins in the end.
As for me, that is what I aim to do, that's my goal and you stand between me and the prize that everyone else here is competing for. You may be a girl with a pretty face and a good jaw, but at the end of the day you'll just serve as target practice. I am one of the best, I've proven it before and I will do so tonight, you got no chance when you go up against the Raging Inferno.
Think you're hot before? When I'm done with your skimpy ass, you'll be scorched, sizzled and fried and the best part is: I'm gonna enjoy every moment of watching you suffer.
Till then, I'm Baron "Blaze" Tomson reminding everyone to stay blazing.
