Alright kid, you've got my attention (o2 Joseph)

[Brandon Payne]

Well, it didn't take long for Genesis to make his way out to ringside. After last week. For the time being. He was putting off MMInc for one week. As he had another fly to swat this week. This time, coming from the village idiot. Making his rounds. Talking shit about him, and other "Legends", so to speak, from TNB Wrestling past & present.

So Genesis got on the microphone & did what any normal person would do in a situation like this. If you wanna talk the talk. You better know how to walk the walk:

My people. I request your undivided attention for a moment or two. As, for the first time in many, many weeks. We have a problem that doesn't involve MMInc or Keith Williams.

Shocking! I know! But wait til you get a load of this!

I've been in this game for a LONG time. You're ass kissing isn't gonna make me see you as anything but a bottom feeder. After all, how many titles have you won again? Uhm zero. I'm a multi-time Undisputed Champion, so if anyone should be giving tips to the new guy, it's me. After all, I've done things that were deemed impossible. I'm like the boogieman of TNB. Even guys like Genesis and Avenger fear speaking of me.

[The first clip you see there. Was caught on camera backstage between the man I'm about to call out, and that panty waste MIRK. But it doesn't stop there. The following clip came from earlier this evening:[/color]

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.

I believe we all know whom I'm talking about now. Now this individual goes by the name "Scott Joseph". And, for whatever reason. He has a vendetta with myself, The Avenger, and possibly Ryan Blaze. Why? I have no fucking clue.

To you fans. He seems like another big mouth rookie. Ironically, a little bit reminscent of MIRK from last year. However, and this might be a long shot. But I know the real person long enough to know better. If this man is... who I THINK he really is? Then I must say two things:

1. What took you so long to come back for your revenge?

and

2. "Don't Sing It. Bring It!"[/color]

Gen. lowers the mic. For all he knew. This person was just a big mouth kid. Wanting to get attention in the wrong places. After-all, the last thing you wanna do in this business is disrespect your elders. Now while guys like Genesis, Avenger & Ryan Blaze aren't exactly old men. They're three of the biggest stars in TNB's history. Therefore, when somebody new walks into the hallowed halls of TNB Wrestling. Just as you would do in any other league. You respect the people who came before, and they shall return the favor. Spit in there face. Call them out. And do all the things this particular person was doing? Then your asking for trouble.

But, in true Genesis fashion. He knew this person was likely working under a new identity. So he wasn't about to spill his guts on his possible real name, or who he once was. He was gonna let the person do it himself when he felt like it. In the meantime. While in the back of his mind. He knew exactly who this person might be. He was gonna play his game, and think of him as a rookie kid with a big mouth.

Nothing more... Nothing less![/center]

[joeseph]

In Time plays as Scott Joseph walks out onto stage with a smirk hidden by his hair. Wearing his jeans, t-shirt, leather jacket, and a mic in one hand. Boos rain down on him, but they don't seem to phase him as he raises the mic.

So are you gonna tell me to my face that you believe I'm lying about who I am or would you rather know why I have a vendetta against you, Avenger, Blaze, and Maniac? Well I guess you could scratch Maniac since he isn't in the equation anymore. Joseph lowers the mic waiting to see what Genesis will say.

[Brandon Payne]

To be frank. The moment you started running your mouth about me. I did a little investigation on you, Scott. Everything that is in writing regarding your record screams Maniac to me. Besides, who else in TNB would hold a grudge against the likes of myself for this long? He & I had a high profile feud in the old days. He couldn't stand me. I couldn't stand him. When this company reopened its doors. I counted down the months, the days, the minutes and even, the seconds. To when he would resurface to extract his revenge upon me.

All this garbage that your spewing. I don't buy it for a second. And if you're truly not him. Then you must have close ties with the guy. But either way it goes. Your a nusence.

As to the reason why you're pissed off at me, and the others? I dunno... I really don't care. All I can say is. Drink all the haterade you like. Then take a number & get in line with the rest of the people who want nothing more then to slit my throat.

Then again, I can't say you don't have me interested. So I'll humor you... why exactly do you hate me so?

[/color]

Gen. lowers the mic. Willing to play along with this guy's little game. Just to see what kind of info he can get from him.[/center]

[joeseph]

Joseph shakes his head laughing as he raises the mic. Please tell me you aren't the measuring stick when it comes to intelligence around here. I mean you obviously know nothing about me despite your so called spies who can find out anything on anybody and conveniently have it for you in time for you to cut a promo on me.

A couple deep breaths after that mouthful. You're an embarrassment to yourself Genesis. I mean no wonder you were stripped of your legend status. You just continue to make yourself look more and more like an idiot.

For those who don't know, what Genesis would have found out if he dug up on me is I'm not married. I have little to no money. I live in Buffalo, New York. And that people are dismissing me as a loud mouthed rookie because no one can find footage of me in TNB or anywhere else for that matter.

Joseph pulls something out of his backpocket that appears to be a wallet. See this is my wallet. In it I keep my proof of identity such as my drivers license. My social security card. A credit card or two. And even a Red Cross blood donor card.

Joseph puts his wallet back in his back pocket. Now based on public records, Manor is married. He has money. He has a daughter. He lives in Buffalo, New York, and you can find matches of his fairly easily. Which means I have one thing in common with Manor. We both live in the same city. A city that happens to be fairly large. In fact, before I came here there was a news paper article about a famous ex-wrestler being injured in a car accident. I'm sure you don't need me to spell it out on which one.

Joseph brushes some of his hair out of his face. So now that we got that out of the way, and you showed exactly why The Godfather of TNB has to put you, Avenger, and Blaze down. I mean I can't stand by and watch you destroy your legacies selling out on the things that made you a star.

You trying to be the hero when your heart is black as night. Talking about how you want to help the new generation while you put on your omniscient act that doesn't impress anyone. Avenger trying to say he plays by the rules yet pulling strings to make sure he's seen as number one. And Blaze for deciding to puss out and no long really go balls to the wall. You're sell outs that need to put down for the benefit of your legacies.

[Brandon Payne]

Alright, Alright! Jeez... you've made your point. On, and on like a broken record. Just chill dude.. damn! Can't blame a fella for acting suspicious. Especially when you've got somebody who has your picture on there personal 'Wanted: Dead or Alive" list. Along with the others. Besides, I make it my business to know who my subordinates are that want to challenge me.

Its like this, pal. At this point. I really don't care anymore who you 'really' are. I don't care if you really are Scott Joseph. A guy whose living off of delusional thoughts from Fantasy Island. Pretending to be something he's not, just so he can be the center of attention.

Or if your Scott 'Maniac' Manor. Coming back to make my life miserable. Or anyone else for that matter from the past. I don't give a fuck anymore.

All I know is. Your starting to piss me off already. I'm paranoid enough as it is having to deal with MMInc breathing down my neck, and Keith Williams just waiting to fire me when he gets the chance. So if I were you. Unless your out here to help me out. Then turn around, and go back to hell where you came from.

But before you go. You can think, or believe what you like to, Scottie. But I have changed. Yes, I'm still hot-headed and short tempered. That will never change. But the reason I fight in this ring are totally different then what they were previously. I don't proclaim myself to be an 'Angel' like most Legends, or IWC darlings out there. I make mistakes. Just like any other human being would do. Its just that when it comes to me. People love to make a big deal of them. So they can have another reason to hate me. Which is fine. Because when it comes to people who act like that. I choose to take the high road. Becoming more then those idiots ever were with each passing day.

So if you have any vendetta with me. Then you might as well settle it with the Genesis of old. Because this Genesis has changed his ways for good. And I think after the last couple of months. Standing my ground, defending these people & fighting MMInc until I can no longer go. I'd like to think I had gained a little trust, and respect around here.

[joeseph]

And here we go with typical Genesis. You miss the point yet again! You say you changed, like my problem is with how you used to be. Did you not listen to a word I said? Well since you're obviously suffering memory problems due to the business I'll say it again.

Joseph leans forward as he continues. You...sold...out...on the things...that made...you...a star...here. That's my problem with you, Avenger, and Blaze. All of you sold out and I'm here to save something from you. Some boos. I'm not saving TNB from you. I'm saving your legacies from yourselves. I've saving the past, by putting down the relics who refuse to be put down and creating a new future that TNB can be proud of and remember forever.

[Brandon Payne]

In case you haven't noticed, dipshit. I'm only twenty six. I'm hardly even CLOSE to being a relic. You wanna know what an old relic is? Those are guys like Hulk Hogan, Ric Flair, and so on. Legends & guys in the past who wrestled in there 50-60's. Yet you wanna come out here and say that I'm a relic? FUCK YOU! Until you know what your talking about. Stay the fuck outta my business lil man. You want to make this a better place? Then either start building your own legacy. Or, just get the fuck outta here. Its bad enough I gotta deal with MMInc. Whom is comprised of other young talented guys. But the problem is. They're corrupted with money & greed. Stuff that even I will admit I used to be about in this business. But have since. Due to my experience. And yes, even 'growing up', and learning the trade. I've grown to be wiser of the evils that lurk in this industry. I'm all for helping a young guy get into the door, and build his own legacy. But I'm not about to have my own tarnished by someone who would not appreciate the effort I put in to put him, or her over.

Today. I'm not greedy for money. I'm greedy for respect. Right now, you're disrespecting me, and the people by flapping your gums & going on and on about stuff that isn't even close to being true.

But I tell ya what. I'll humor you, and give you an answer. The reason guys like myself & The Avenger continue to be on top here in TNB Wrestling. Much less, at the top of our own, invididual game is because we make it our business to be the very best. We were just as good, if not BETTER then we've ever been in our careers, Scott. Difference between now & then. Back then, we were starting out and getting our feet wet into the business. Where as today. Due to our success stories. We've got assholes like you who want to roll in here and put us down for just being better then you will probably ever amount to be.

I've always said this from day... fucking... one! If you really think that you're better then me. Then god bless ya. Go out there, and earn more money then I've ever been offered. Go out there, and win more belts, more titles, more legendhood achievements. Go out there, and do the things I"ve done. But do it even better. Then, we'll talk about you. Along with these young punk little bastards that have run amuck in TNB for the last two years. Portraying themselves to be 'the shit'. When in reality. They got it all wrong. There 'shit', period!

They have potential, but they lack character. Wanna know why Ryan Blaze isn't currently on top of his game? Because he couldn't hang. Yes! He had a great moment, key word there Scottie... 'moment' last year at Night of Legends II. But once he lost his belt. He's fell off the radar. Until recently, he became an afterthought. Just another good who had his 10 minutes of fame. But just like a band who produces one hit wonders. They disappear into obscurity.

Look at guys like Sentoryu, Michael Ragen, XDX, people who were supposed to be the 'future' of this company. But have since left or on a leave of absence. You can place them in the same category as Ryan Blaze. They had there moments. They got recognized. Some die hard fans will remember them for one classic moment. But in the long term of things? They're a flash in the pan.

And ya know who, and what the company has to constantly keep falling back on? US! Guys like myself, The Avenger, Sylas Styles, Chris Lionheart, when he was wrestling. Shia Storm, the list goes on of TNB's past. We're the ones that are called to pick up the slack when business is going downhill because the young crew can't keep it together. Because of our YEARS of experience. In case you haven't noticed with the fans. We're some of the most recognizable figures in this industry today. So when these young guys fuck up. We have to clean up there mess, and steer the ship back on course.

Do you honestly think that I don't want nothing more then these young guys to step it up, and stay at the top? I DO! I really do. But they lack the discipline & the dedication to do it. THAT is my problem with today's influx of wrestlers. Compared to guys like me who started in 2005, 2006, and in previous years.

So check this out, kid. Until you actually make it in this business. Stop hiding out, and claiming to be something that your not. Be a man. Do as Avenger told you earlier tonight. Grow a sack, show some guts and tell me how bad you want this. Matter of fact. Don't just 'say it'. Prove it to me. Let your actions speak louder then your words. SHOW ME that you have it in your heart to be better then the likes of myself, The Avenger, and the others who came before you.

Then, and only then. I'll shake your hand. Congratulate you on a job well done, and you'll earn my respect for a lifetime. And also, the respect of the people.

Until that day comes. Your nothing more then another little punk with a big, bad mouth & false sense of security. No one has heard of Scott Joseph. No one knows, or would probably care that you were once a 'former TNB World Champion', and all that other jazz. Which leads me to believe that you're a liar, and your hiding something. But at this point. I really don't care to find out anymore. Because if you keep busting my chops. I'm gonna put you in the ground before you even have the chance to tell us who you really are.

Gen. lowers the mic. As he has about had it up to here with this shit. Scott pissed him off, and he was in rant mode. Where before, he was gonna let the kid slide and not say too much. But now? After being called an 'old man', basically. Along with having his legacy disrespected by this kid. He was going to stand for it anymore.[/center]

[joeseph]

Joseph laughs into the mic. And then I came along and made something in my first week. I didn't just make waves, I made tsunamis. I mean think about it. In one week without even a match, I got the attention of Genesis and Avenger. Of course, being an attention whore I tend to be quite good at getting attention. Another laugh and more boos.

Like the song says Genesis. I can see what you're thinking. All your doubts and fears. You place so much merit on titles and accomplishments that what would happen if Genesis were to fall off the radar and it wasn't by his choice? I promise you this much. Since you value the TNB Undisputed Title so much, when, not if I win it. I will make sure I disrespect it to the full. Until then, enjoy knowing the truth that we both know. Your ranting and raving just proved that you're still who you always are. You're just sacrificing your legacy to try and hide it.

In Time begins to play as Joseph drops the mic and looks at Genesis for a bit before scoffing and heading backstage.
