....I had just made it to the arena for BattleGrounds from my Dad's old place when I spied one of the IWF's inept interviewers coming my way....
"Jesus, they don't give you a hot minute before they jump all over ya do they bro??"
Vinnie: Yeah, I think Chuck pays 'em by the interview because it's almost like they camp out waiting for ya, isn't it??
"Totally, hey can we fuck this one up if he gives us too much shit??"
Vinnie: Sure, why not....Now here the dolt comes this should be fun.....
....The guy waddled his way up to me mic in hand, this one looked like an Oompah Loompah. His skin was even an orangey color....This should be fun....
Interviewer: Mr. Van Rose, my name is Reginald Goodbottom, I am IWF's newest backstage interviewer....Do you think you could give us a few minutes to talk about the upcoming BattleGrounds telecast??
Vinnie: Sure there lil buddy, hey has anyone ever told ya you look exactly like one of them there Oompah Loompah fellers....Your hair is green and you look a lil orangey even....
Reginald: Well I never....I used bronzer this morning knowing I would be on television and I guess it didn't sink all the way in yet. An Oompah Loompah, I had heard you were boorish, but that sir takes the cake....
Vinnie: That's just the way I am slick, if you don't like it you can join your other interview buddies on the wrong end of a kick or punch right to the dome, your choice.
Reginald: I will choose to carry the rest of this interview with some civility tank you. As fro my question earlier what do you think abou the heavy presence of your faction Se7en ant the BattleGrounds event??
Vinnie: What do I think? What do I think about Se7en packing in this week's show huh?? Well, I will tell you I think Brandon and the rest of those knob gobblers back in that locker room will truly get a taste of what we are capable of. Every single member of my squad is in action this week and if you thought The Chosen were tough customers, you ain't seen shit yet. As clear as I can see it we are gonna make a clean sweep of BattleGrounds return event. You know bring it back in style and all.
Reginald: I think there are a few folks that would like to tell you otherwise, particularly Sharky's Angels and one Sean Libby. Sharky's Angels have been taking all week about how if it wasn't for The Chosen you would still be a nothing and that your record doesn't mean a thing to them. How do you respond to that??
Vinnie: I have already discussed this earlier in the week Mr. Roundbottom, but I will reiterate what I said and hell, since it didn't sink in the first time I will speak a lil slower for 'em. I wouldn't have this bright shiny belt if I didn't know what in the hell I was doing in the ring. I won that match without a lick of help from The Chosen or anyone. I whipped that Irish punk with my own two hands and I did it convincingly. If they still have doubts I will show both those crazy skanks exactly what it means to step into the ring with The Southern Sledgehammer...What it means to get in the ring with a true Champion, not a one hit wonder knockout artist like their dark skinned friend. Most men would shy away from a match against two women, but I say if you can flap your gums you can take the beating coming your way....
Reginald: The name is Goodbottom Sir.... and what about young Mr. O'Rourke...er ...Libby??
Vinnie: That boy?? I ain't worried a lick about him, he changes his last name about as often as he changes his underwear. I put him on the shelf, once and by God I will do it again. I have taken a long look in the mirror as of late and realized being a pushover gets you no where fast and one day lil Libby will realize that too. Until that day I will just keep handing him out beatings til he gets the point. All in all though I really hate to fight Libby, it's like fighting that kid in the tv show Life Goes On, ya know Corky was his name. The dude with Down Syndrome. I almost feel bad for him. It's almost like I could go out there and hold my hand against his head and just watch him swing and kick away, but he won't land a punch. Why the bookers keep making me fight him I don't know. This is the THIRD time I will step between the ropes to face him and I whip him EVERY time.....This time will be no different, you can bet on that.
Reginald: You sound very confident....Some would mistake your confidence for arrogance??
Vinnie: And some would mistake you for an Oompah Loompah, but you say it's just "bronzer". I will be the first to admit I am arrogant, your damn right I am. This belt right here and the victories I racked up to get it mean I can be. Not many folks in that locker room can claim six wins, three of them in a row. And only one damn person besides myself can claim they have ever held this belt, and I whipped his ass pillar to post to be able to call myself champ so you are damn right I am arrogant. Now get out of my face before I do something....rash....
Reginald: I have heard what you have done to the other interviewers and I will not....
....Before Reginald could finish Vinnie's powerful right hand slammed himagainst the wall hard knocking him out cold....Vinnie got a wide grin on his face as he tore a piece of cardboard off a nearby box and wrote in big block letters:
WILL WORK FOR WILLY WONKA CHOCOLATE
.....and placed it in the diminutive interviewer's lap.....
Vinnie: We lose more good interviewer's that way.....
