Beginning The Journey(o2a)

[joeseph]

"In Time" by Mark Collie plays as Joseph makes his way onto the stage. Dressed in jeans, a white t-shirt, and a leather jacket, he pauses at the stage and looks around the arena. He slowly makes his way down the ramp and into the ring. A couple people boo him who saw his interview on TNBwrestling.com, but the crowd is mostly silent as he grabs a mic and holds his head down as he talks.

It's been a while since I've stood in this ring. Before I was a part of this company. I've watched some things change while others stay the same. I've watched a thief and a liar be on top. I've watched my idol fall to the wayside because he lost the edge that made him a star.

Suddenly his head snaps up. But I'm back! I'm back to reestablish my absolute domination on all the things you talk about! I'm back to show these legends who hold to the old way just how things are done. I'm back to demand my legend status that I earned! And I'm back for you Avenger.

Joseph walks around a bit as he continues. I know the truth about you, Avenger. I know how you robbed me of that title. And I'm gonna beat your ass AGAIN! This time though when I face off with you after beating others and making my impact felt world wide. After I have you questioning whether you can overcome your losing streak to me. After all that, when we face off, I will take your face. He stops walking.

Your face. Your soul. Your legacy. I will not only take it, but I will make you burn it in front of everyone! I've made a career of making history, and when we face off, after the dust has cleared, I will be the man who took The Avenger's face. The crowd immediately starts to boo Joseph. Even when he calls for quiet there are some boos.

But that is then, and this is now. Joseph walks over to the ropes facing the stage and points to the stage. I'm calling out anyone in the back who wants to step in this ring with a legend and former Undisputed Champion. I want you step into this ring and for one night, I'll give you the honor of being famous. I'm the toughest man to ever step foot in this ring, so I won't blame you if you bring along a friend or two. Joseph lowers the mic and waits to see if anyone shows up.

[MG Cage]

You can sound the alarm you can hold all the cards you can fence in your yard you can hold all the cards but I WONT! BACK! DOWN! Oh no I WONT! BACK! DOWN! OH NO!!!!

Out steps MG Cage, visibly not all well from his attack last week, but he wasn;t in THAT bad of shape. He was wearing his "Rising" Sun T-Shirt, but he didn't look dressed to compete. And he wasn't planning to.

Well well well, why if it isn't the resident stoner of TNB himself. I saw your little interview, and I have to say you should share some of that shit you smoke with me.

The crowd laughs and Cage waits for them to stop before continuing.

Now I see an interesting situation here. This man claims to be the best of the best. Clownfuck wants me in a submission match. I have an idea. We got two weeks til the next PPV, there's where you have your match JOKEr. But, on one condition. I wanna do a bit of a "MoneyMaker" Challenge. So JOKEr, you got two weeks. Two matches you have to win. If you win both, you get me in two weeks. Tonigt, Scott you need a match, I need a scapegoat, what do you say, we have a deal?

[joeseph]

Joseph waits a bit before raising the mic to respond to MG Cage. If only you knew the truth about what you're asking. You might reconsider your challenge to me. I feel no mercy. No regret. I wouldn't bat an eye at ending your career before you face JOKEr.

Joseph shakes his head. I am TNB's last king. The only one left who didn't sell out. It's why Brandon "Genesis" Payne and Avenger will always fear me. But they don't know that they know I am their biggest threat. You on the other hand have the mindset of a rookie. You don't know what it takes to be at the top and you don't have it in you. Yet you think you can take on a legend of my stature.

Joseph turns around his back to MG Cage, but turns back around with his free hand in the air signaling he has an idea. But if you're so eager I can entertain you for a night. Tonight, when we meet in this ring I'll hit you below the belt and then pin you. Either that or some other illegal maneuver to leave you lying on this mat, a pile of scraps for JOKEr. I tend to wing things rather than some long drawn out boring as hell plan.

A brief pause. In fact, I'll issue an open invitation for JOKEr to be ringside to watch this match and make sure I don't leave you too broken and battered to face him. After all, I tend to overdo things. Of course, this is only if you still have the nerve to face TNB's last king. Or would you like some more verbal beatdown where I remind you that Maple Leaf Muscle is still here in TNB and how you failed to get rid of them like you said you would? Joseph lowers the mic waiting for a response.

He cringes. The mere thought of him mentioning that was about to send him in a blind fit of rage, before remembering he was 100%.

Nononononono kid. What I meant is that you are gonna face JOKEr tonight. I'm gonna rest up for my match at the PPV, but tonight you two are gonna duke it out. And if he wins against you and one other opponent of my choosing, THEN he gets me at the PPV.

Shaking his head, he turns around. Then he turns back around before saying:

Damn kid, calm down with the weed

[joeseph]

Joseph shakes his head with a chuckle. So you're scared of JOKEr and gotta have him weakened for you? Got it. I guess I can understand that, since if memory serves me right you lost to MoneyMaker.

Joseph waves his finger. Quite the hypocrite aren't you? Complain about others taking shortcuts or cheating, and here you are ducking and taking shortcuts. Maybe you do fit in with the sell outs after all. Another chuckle and more boos.

As for your match. I may be an asshole, but I know my place. And while I may have some stoke because I am the best thing to come out of Atlanta, I don't make matches. And I know for a fact that neither do you. I also, know MoneyMaker has money and a lot of it. Soooooooooo if this match were to happen, JOKEr can come out and accept for himself.

Another shake of his head. It's funny how you claim to want to get your hands on him, yet you're clearly dodging him and trying to make him jump through hoops to face you. I'm an asshole. A dirty player. But can't say I'm a coward like you. A smirk half obstructed by hair in his face as he lowers the mic.

[JOKEr]

It doesn't take long for JOKEr's music to play. He walks out with his female friend, Harlequin. He walks down to the ring as Harlequin bumps into MG. Just a little bump. One to let you know she there. JOKEr, calls for a mic. He looks at MG, brings his mic to his lips.

"Now, little MG somehow hid from me at the last show... Now the weakling is dodgeing me again. Throwing up some road blocks before I get a shot at him. You are one sad fuck..... Your so weak you need a week to heal from that little beatdown? That's weak.... And if you want to hold off on our meeting in a submission match.... Fine, but kid your not getting a night off.... I'll let you fight one of my friends. But I'll let you wonder who it is. "

Now turns around to the new guy.

"Look I have no problem with you. Hell, really have no idea who you are.... Not really looking to make more enemies, but..... I also am not pussy. I will fight you, but why don't we run with one under submission rules. So that way, weakling MG can see what he will get when I have him one on one in this ring.... What do you say?

[MG Cage]

Cage looks at Harlequin, before thinking "Clownfuck really is trying to be Fyre now isn't he?" and then looks at the retard in the ring, Scott Joseph.

I see how it is. Since I'm the good guy, and doing the same thing the bad guy does, I'm now the bad guy? Oooooh well call me Mr. Antihero.

He was walking around the ring, but now he jumps in Scott's face.

Because THAT's, what the FUCK I'm gonna be. You wanna be all high and dry and on MoneyMaker's dick, does that make HIM a coward too? I mean, I'm still gonna fuck him up, but I'm letting him slide for now. Unlike Clownfuck over here, I actually hope you lose your match. Because if he makes it to the PPV, I'm gonna break his fucked neck.

He looks at the crowd as the loud cheers start.

The only reason I can't fight him-

He jumps in JOKEr's face.

Fuck that, YOU.....
The only reason I haven't kicked your ass yet, is because between the match at Collision Course, the prematch attack by you, and the corresponding attack by a bunch of pussies.

He looks at Harlequin, unsure if she was the woman who helped attack him at CC.

Literally.

I got an injured Hamstring. This shit takes two weeks to heal, so I'll see you then. But I figured, why should Clownfuck be 100% for our match? I'm sure as hell not, even when this shit heals I'm NOT gonna be 100%. And neither are you. So, you gonna take up my challenge?

He looks at Harlequin, to JOKEr, back to her and then JOKEr.

[JOKEr]

"Look this whole clownfuck, thing is funny and all. I'm sure some of your best stuff mr. Small time. If you would take your head out of your own ass. You would have realized that I have. See, I am not a coward. I will fight anyone... Unlike some people... And I use that word loosely...... See, MG.. I'm not playing the little game that Angel plays.... This Harlequin is mine. Not just some flack like that fool plays with.... And you know what she could take a bitch like you out. But that's not the point. I will fight Scott, in a match.... Though win or lose your still going to be hunted... Little MG. I will take your threat of bodily harm and twisted it on you. Now slow your roll and shut your hole. The men need to talk. Cowards may leave for the back"

[Brandon Payne]

Watching all of the events unfold from backstage. Genesis stood there near the 'Gorilla Position'. Watching MG Cage, Joker & this new kid go back and forth. Mainly, Gen. was keeping an eye on things. MG Cage had his back at Collision Course. Therefore, only fair that Gen. would return the favor. Keeping an eye on MG Cage, he became amused at this new kid. Going on, and on, and on about how he was this & that of TNB.

As to be expected. This didn't affect Genesis at all. Matter of fact. This was downright hilarious.

Tell me, son. How can you claim yourself to be a 'Legend' around here. When not one person knows who the fuck you are??

[/color]

Gen. crosses his arms & continues to watch. Thinking in the back of his mind that Avenger must be loving this too![/center]

Cage looks around and crosses his arms. And then looks at JOKEr.

Uh...

He looks towards the back.

Shouldn't you be going Mr. I'm so tough cuz I got a hooker off the street & some big ass man who used to be abused when he was a child as allies? I mean, you said cowards go to the back, and what you did at Collision Course was kind of a BITCH move.

[joeseph]

Joseph rubs his forehead like he's getting a migraine. Ok, so since you're clearly confused on what you should do, I'll tell you. You say you're suppose to be the good guy. You say you're injured. So be the good guy, go lay down, let someone put you out of my misery, and feel great knowing that this phoenix is rising back to the top. Joseph stops rubbing his head and turns to JOKEr. Not much for submission, but why not. I got nothing better to do. It'll give Avenger a sigh of relief knowing his judgment day is still another day off.

Joseph walks over to the ropes and climbs out to the apron. Oh and MG Cage. When you face JOKEr, I got twenty on a repeat of your attempt to get rid of Maple Leaf Muscle and your attempt to get rid of MoneyMaker. With that "In Time" plays as Joseph makes his way backstage, stopping when next to MG Cage. He lets out something like a snort with a smile and then finishes making his way backstage.

[MG Cage]

Before you leave. Let me just point out that Jeff Kain is the only member of MLM that's competing atm. I didn't have to get rid of them, Storm & Avenger did it for me. Hmph, Avenger might do the same when it comes to you. If not, I'll do it myself.

His music hits and he gives JOKEr one final look as he walks backstage.

[Avenger]

*The Avenger hears all of this madness as he gets up from his chair in his locker room and makes his way to the stage area. He busts out as he has a mic in his hand.*

You know the Avenger was set on just having a normal match with some person and getting ready for the PPV against Ryan Blaze. The Avenger even was getting ready for his Tag Title Match with Storm against Fyre/Genesis. But you know the Avenger sees a piece of trash like you Scott "I Wish I Was Famous" Joseph and knows that you are asking for something that is gonna bring nothing but despair in your life. And the Avenger is the type of guy that will make you famous.

Now you want to come out here and call yourself the next Randy Orton. The Legend Killer or whatever then go ahead. You want to come out here and you be the liar and thief then go ahead but the Avenger never stole anything from anybody unless it was there blood after the Avenger beat them so bad it ran out of their head. Now that was something the Avenger was famous for doing. But you know what you don't have to wait for that day. You want a piece of the Avenger all you got to do is show up in that ring and the rest is history. The Avenger will drop you and make you wish you were not here. So the bottom line "Scott Joseph" is stop belly aching over the Avenger or Genesis or Ryan Blaze. Grow a pair and do something about it if you hate it that much.

Tonight the Avenger knows you got yourself a little match with Joker and that is fine but let the Avenger say this. And don't want any excuses on why you got your tail kicked. But if you are still around after the Joker gets done with you then next week you climb in that ring with the Avenger and we will see who you are or what you are. The Avenger would fight you this week but knowing the character that the Avenger is feeling you are after 2 losses this week would destroy you and blaming everyone would be your next promo.

So the Avenger says you decide Legend Killer on what fate you want. Regardless the Avenger ain't running or scared of anything or anyone. So you want to throw hands tonight we can go and if you want to do it next week then we can go. What you need to understand is that it isn't hard to find the Avenger. And when you find the Avenger it is something you don't want. The Avenger can promise you that much and to the fans don't worry this chump is gonna get his.

[joeseph]

Joseph walks back out from backstage and stands next to Avenger without a mic. Kinda was backstage on my way to get a water. But uhm as for your challenge. We'll face off another time. When we do I'll make sure to make it a big deal and not some throw away match.

[Avenger]

*The Avenger stares down SJ.*

Besides if you want at a shot at what the Avenger has then you got to prove yourself! You ain't Goldberg thinking you getting a title shot this early kid. You prove yourself and when you have beaten up on a few people besides on the mic then we can go at it. The Avenger will keep his eye on you as the Avenger does everyone that is looking to take what is his.
