SHOCKING Revelations! (o2invites, & TNB Originals)

[Brandon Payne]

TNB Originals = TNB1 peeps . Sorry 'New Blood' XD

It didn't take long for Genesis to make his way out to ringside. A little over 30 mins into the broadcast for Nitro. But little did we all know. The turn of events that was about to take place that were going to rock the foundation of this organization.

After Gen's music "Hunt You Down" by Saliva faded into the darkness. Gen.picked up a microphone & started talking almost immeadiately.

What can I say folks? To my great people out there. Tonights the night! The night, that Angel Fyre & I become your new World Tag Team Champions!

Big Pop

But not only that. We defeat two, of TNB's finest stars. Two guys, that ever since they started teaming up. Have ran through tag team after tag team in there quest to be the best tag team in TNB's history. Those two men I'm referring to is Shia STorm, and my dear friend, The Avenger.[/color]

Bigger pop for those two men. And a much well deserved standing ovation.

Now with all due respect to those gentlemen. They did everything they sat out to do. But tonight? 'Destiny' takes over where they left off. Because right here on 'Nitro'. You will see Genesis team up with Angel Fyre. And together? We will be the one's remembered for taking out a team. Whom is believed to be unstoppable. Maybe even invincible.

So with that said. Lets bring out...[/color]

The arena goes into complete darkness. What is this all about??

(OOC: o2 invites first, then after everything is revealed. The Originals can come out & give there reactions)[/center]

[John Costas]

Out from the darkness. Walked a man. Escorted by security. A man, looking to be in his mid-to-upper 50's. Short grey hair, & beard. Walking to the ring with the spotlight on him & him alone. Could this be the man whom had been haunting Genesis for the last several weeks!?

He enters the ring. And tells security to stand guard outside the ring. As they surround the squared circle as if they were 'lumberjacks'. The look on Gen's face was a bit of shock, yet dispair. In the back of his mind. He knew that his time was over now. Once this man took the microphone. His world was going to come to a screeching hault. With his future lying in the hands of the man before him, and the person who has come back to destroy everything.

I believe you & I need no introduction. But to those it may concern. Allow me to introduce myself properly. I am John Costas. Some of you may remember me from the 'Seattle' based promotion. Others? You haven't seen, nor heard of me before. I am here to reveal the truth behind the lies being told.

Lies that are being told by this man *points to Genesis*.

You see, to make a long story short here. This man isn't who he says he is. He's a con artist. The biggest one of them all. After-all. It was I, who created him. Unbeknownst to him. The man by the name of Scott Joseph was correct. He was right about Genesis. He is a liar. And a fraud.

This man is a well known copycat. Benefitting off the careers of others. Instead of doing whats right & making a name for himself off his own skills. Because despite all the deceit & betrayals. He has talent to do his own thing. But instead, chose to 'listen' to me years ago...

Back in 2007. When Genesis made his exit from the New York based promotion. On the count of a public excution along with Shia Storm. Genesis... the 'real' Genesis went into hiding. He stayed with me for four years. After-all, they said his career was over. For once. He did the right thing. He tried to stand up & defend Shia Storm. And what did he get?? Well as many of you may know. When you throw yourself into the line of fire. You're gonna get shot.

But what thanks did he get?? Not a damn thing!

Instead... he got four years of a deep, dark depression. Thoughts of committing suicide ran through his brain daily. I took him to one psychiatrist after another. They pumped his body full of pills & every kind of treatment they could offer. But I digress... because folks. The only thing that was going to cure my son of his haunted memories of the past was to come back 'home'.

But this, my friends. Is where things get intresting...

Whilst my son spent his days getting the psychological help he needed. This man before you, the one who affectionately goes by "Brandon Payne" outside the ring. I hired him to become the new "Genesis".

So for four years. Starting with the defunt "NEW" promotion... all the way to the present. This man served as the replacement for the real thing. At first, despite his quirks. He did a good job mimicking & copying what is considered a one & a million creation.

However, copying is what this kid did best.

2007-2008, he targeted Brent Starr. Even going so far as to call himself the "Prince of PWNage", just to lure him out. Then when he gave you the PWNdozing of a lifetime, Payne. You ran! You ran like a scolded dog & took your GCW World Championship belt with you...

But hold on people. It doesn't stop there... There's much, much more!

Then you did something... REALLY STUPID!

You went to the company that nearly killed my son's career. You ran back to New York. You played employee of the month. You became the beloved comeback kid. You earned there highest honor of Combatant Xtraordinaire. And as I watched the awards ceremony go down in 2008? It was then I made up mind what needed to be done.

You changed! You derailed yourself from your mission. You were supposed to carry on my son's dark legacy. But instead? You changed him into a COMPLETE FUCKING JOKE!!!

But like I say. It doesn't end there. Of course. You ventured to other avenues along the way. In 'Seattle', I even decided to join you. As you failed to create our own 'Society'. You dropped the ball then, Mr. Payne. That was your 2nd & last chance with me & 'him'.

Indeed there's more... and if there is a man by the name of Chris Lionheart listening, and watching this unfold at home? He might want to turn the volume up & hear this!

[Brandon Payne]

Don't do it, John! You've done enough damage... stop it! Thats enough!

[/color]

Payne begged, as John carried onward with his plight.[/center]

[John Costas]

Why not?? I'm just getting started. Surely you want your 'people' to know the truth about you, don't you agree??

As I was saying... When it came time for this promotion to breathe new life. When this company was resurrected. You came along for the ride. Then, in order to get control over the company. You made up, and fabricated a story that would eventually lead to you & Chris Lionheart being 'brothers'.

But I ask, Mr. Payne. Where is the DNA samples to prove this?? What's the matter?? Don't have it on you, I see. Maybe its because it never existed. Again, another lie. You even dawned the face paint of Lionheart to further push the story along, didn't you?

But again... you failed. Then you came, and went from the company. You changed the look so much. Even went so far as to pander to the public. That it made him sick to his stomach.

So you've got one last chance, Payne. Own up to the lies & deceit. Or so help me god. I'll make sure that he...

[Brandon Payne]

ALRIGHT ALRIGHT!

[/color]

*Payne lowers his head, and looks around at the crowd. They look back at him in disbelief. The man, whom they thought was there hero. Trying to save them from the clutches of MMInc. Was indeed an even worse figure then any of those men combined*

Guys... I'm sorry. For everything...[/color]

*Fan's Boo*

Everything that John has said? Is true...

But there is one thing he neglected to tell you all. He was the one giving me the orders. Everything that you saw me do over the last four years was by his own doing. He sent me after Brent Starr in Chicago. Because he was a threat to the "Genesis" legacy.

Then, you ordered me to go back to New York to make amends, and start over. Which I did, and succeeded in my mission there. Yes, I'll admit to having to change things up a bit & watering down the character. But lets face facts, John! If I were to went back portraying myself to be the real Genesis in all his glory. I would've been thrown out on the streets faster then he was. So I don't understand why you're so angry over that!?

But when it comes to Lionheart? Lemme tell you something, John. I did the whole 'brother' thing just for you. You wanted me to get control of the company. So that when you & him arrived. You guys could take over & run the ship. Then my mission would be deemed a success & I would free of my duties.

Things didn't work out as planned. I"m sorry that I failed. But what I'm more sorry about right now?? IS THAT I EVER LISTENED TO A FREAK LIKE YOU!!!

Because what isn't a lie! What isn't a fabricated storyline angle. What isn't a figment of imagination is my love for the people. The people that you hate. When it came to guys like The Avenger, Shia Storm, Chris Lionheart, and the rest?? They are my friends John.

To 'him'. They were enemies. Because he didn't want anyone standing in his way. He didn't want anyone sharing the top of the mountain but himself. Especially The Avenger. The very man who trained him.

I'll own up to carrying on with your story, John. I'll apologize a million & one times for the things I did. But what I want have you do is have that monster come back to destroy this company. Its already died once because of him... I won't let it happen again![/color]

*Payne grabs John by the shirt collar*

YOU TELL ME WHERE HE IS!!![/color][/center]

[John Costas]

*John smirked, and laughed back at Payne. As Payne refused to loosen his grip on Costas.*

Why don't you ask 'him' yourself, Brandon? hahahaha!

Suddenly...

[evil]

LOOK INTO MY EYES AND ASK FOR MORE!!!!!

[/color][/size]



Suddenly, the unthinkable occurred. Out walked from the darkness was the man, whom the public hasn't seen in over four years. There was no light in these eyes. As he looked down at the ring as Payne. Everyone's mouths dropped, as they couldn't believe what they were seeing!

What John Costas had been preaching tonight was all coming true before our eyes. Brandon Payne wasn't Genesis, and that the man we see walking down the ring was the real deal. The man who was the figurehead of controversy. The man who everyone loved to hate, but always wanted to be. The man who made the lives of The Avenger, Chris Lionheart & countless others a living hell.

He returned!

As he stepped into the ring. Payne relinquished his grip on Costas. As Costas continued to laugh at him. Payne, feeling overwhelmed with his own anger & frustrations. Charged at Genesis. Whom as you can see. Was dressed in all black in street clothing.

Payne charged after him. As if he was going on for a well, delivered right hook. But Gen. quickly dodged it & flipped him over on his back with a judo sweep. As Payne landed awkwardly on his back. Then the real Genesis delivered a few stiff stomps to Payne's stirnum. Then picked up the microphone Payne had dropped, and said:

If I may... re-introduce myself. I am the real King of Controversy. Often imitated... but never ever...[/color]

*Gen stomps on Payne some more. Before choking Payne out with his right foot*

Never to be duplicated!

The one, the only.... GENESIS! hahahahaha!

And yes folks... "It feels good to be back!"[/color]

(o2 reactions from TNB Originals)

EDIT: Fixed tags. Had to leave on short notice to pick up Mortal Kombat. So I had to leave everything as is. The threads now open to whomever wants to chime in & either react, or interact with Genesis, BP, Costas, etc. [/center]

[Avenger]

*The Avenger walks out as he sees what is going on. He sees a man that he feels to be like a son to him. Someone that he seems he is not doing well with the arrival of Costas and Real Genesis. So the Avenger looks at what is going on and at the stage area begins speaking.*

You know the Avenger was in the back getting ready for his two big matches tonight and then the monitor pops open and out comes the circus. Out comes two guys trying to manipulate the world and more than that trying to manipulate a guy that the Avenger holds dear to his heart. A guy that the Avenger saw the promise in and helped him. But more than that maybe a guy that helped the Avenger more then the Avenger ever helping him. That may be one of those things that the historians can put together one day in a book but tonight it is about more.

You know the Avenger knew that he had to fight off all comers for this World Title. He knew that MMI was only a heartbeat away and not to mention those that are not aligned with that organization at this point. The Avenger knew he would have to face Ryan Blaze tonight for 60 minutes and before that match get in the ring with the man that the Avenger knows to be the real Genesis and not this psychotic plug that the Avenger is looking at right now. You see Costas you come out here and try to blind the world and make the most promising young star that has become a main eventer into your puppet but no that ain't happening! Not tonight or no night! The Avenger is not going to sit around and let you drive him into places that you see fit. The Avenger is not going to let you do that to him or even try to convince another young star in Angel Fyre in the same realm as you! The Avenger sees another Moneymaker in you and tonight it stops here! Tonight the Avenger can see what the Avenger saw those many moons ago with a bunch of Rock Star wannabes tried to do the same thing to Genesis and he came for support from the Avenger. Not because he couldn't handle things himself but because he needed someone to take up his slack and that begins tonight. Because the Avenger knows that it will take someone like the Avenger to be aligned with Genesis to keep guys like you from destroying the lives of the promising stars that we have and the mainstays that we have as well.

*The Avenger points at Costas and the dark warrior.*

You guys are up to no good and it is time that we end you before you can manipulate and destroy the good in Genesis. So tonight the Avenger knows he has to face Genesis and Fyre for those Tag Straps but mark the words of the Avenger and that is don't come in here and try to destroy the man like you have been doing over the past few years. You want to do that then look in the mirror because it is obvious that you have no business directing anything. So tonight the Avenger and Shia Storm will be in this match against Genesis and Fyre. And if you guys think you are gonna tear down what the TNB Originals built then you guys have no idea what it means to be in TNB or to be an original.

[ten]

"Renewal" by Extol blares through the PA system...The lights dim with a purple flicker...smoke comes up on the stage...Shia Storm shows up on stage...The crowd is erupting whether its boos or cheers...Shia Storm comes with a curious or shocked looked...He puts his hands at his side, and then lets out a little smirk, and then shakes his head...He gazes into the eyes of the "Real" Genesis...Which now knowing that he hasn't actually seen him in years...He saw a man on the mission, and hold no damn prisoners...He grabs a microphone, and slips into the ring...The anticipation is high, and tense as He, and Genesis have somewhat of a staredown, and then he looks down at this guy who was thought as Genesis...

So...We ourselves a little development huh?

He then looks at Genesis

A bit different between of course...This replica...clone...Reject!...Is not as cold...Well pretty much soft...What Idiot in there right mind teams with an little child like MG Cage? I mean now I understand!

The crowd boos as MG Cage is a crowd favorite to some

Years ago...I remember...Some sun of a bitch got himself canned...Fired...Out of a fuckin job!...Gone from TNB1...and...When he came back...What a damn chip on a shoulder he had...Had more heat than anyone...Instead of falling over because of the hate...He kept on pushing, and wining no matter who didn't like it...Some called him annoying, an asshole, bastard, and controversial!...and they couldn't do shit about it!...

He then points to the guy on the floor

If that's the guy on the floor

He then looks at Genesis

THANK GOD!...That stupid some of the bitch is alive then! and I'm glad of it...Its going to a bit of fresh air, but at the same time...Someone that will challenge me...I'm actually curious or what's on your mind now...

He then looks at Avenger

I'm sure you got something on your mind for your Best bud Avenger, and probably me to which I don't mind because I'll give you same damn fire back...I don't mind lighting a fire under your ass ...I don't really care...Either way tho besides your return...Whether you take the place of the imposter or the imposter still fights with that fyre who is in some much damn trouble, and is going to get DESTROYED Tonight!...

[evil]

Gen. loosens his grip on Payne. Then kicks him in the side just as hard as he could. As if he was kicking a bag of trash away. Then eyed both Shia & Avenger. Chuckling at both of them arrogantly. Before starting off with one of his greatest of foes:

Good ol' Sebastian Crowe. Its been awhile hasn't it? You haven't changed a bit have you? Still the same, stupid hero pandering to the crowd. Kissing babies. Shaking hands. Stealing everybodies spotlight. First all, I must have you confused. You see, the miserable little piss-ant you call a 'friend' is Brandon Payne. The man, who spent four years inpersonating the one being, whom could never ever be duplicated. After all, another me is what they'll never be. BP proved that he can't replace perfection.

I might have been hiding in the shadows for a long, long time Sebastian. But thanks to my father (Costas) and Mr. Payne over there. I've collected & gathered information about you. Everything you've done since we last saw each other during the "Ultimate Alliance" days. You remember those don't you?

To think. I was that close to turning you from the beloved hero to one of my greatest of allies. Just think, Sebastian. Instead of listening to the people. You could've stood by my side, and we single handily could've tore the place upside down, inside out. Have everything we could ever want in this world. Money, Fame, Women, Title after Title.

But instead? When I left this world years ago. When I... did something that even I would never thought to have done. When I stepped into the line of fire, and defended this man

*Points to Shia Storm*

Who came to my defense? Who defended us that day?

I'll tell ya who, Sebastian... NO ONE!

The one, and only selfless act of sacrifice I ever did in my life. Was all in vain! For nothing!!!

You stood there, just like Chris Lionheart. Just like the Dixon Family. Just like Chris Steele. Like every man that was on the TNB Roster over at the other place. You stood there. Tail between your legs. Lips puckered up, and you did nothing! Nothing... but kiss the bosses ass at my expense!

For YEARS! I lived with the shame. I counted down the hours, the minutes. The days would turn into months, then into years. Waiting for the day. The right time. For this 'phoenix to rise from the ashes'.

You see, Sebastian. Just as you were back then. You've been nothing but a thorn in my side. The itch that you can never seem to scratch. The one person who I cannot stand. No matter what. You were always considered, amongst your people. These fuckers who do nothing but cheer your every move & action. To the bookers backstage who look at you as the almighty king of kings. All of those reasons combined. Means that I can't even stand the sight of you.

So just for that. You should know this. Now that I am back! Your 'fun days' are over, Sebastian. Consider yourself nothing more then the shit that I'll scrape off my bottom boot when I'm done stomping your lifeless corpse into the ground. You're dead to me. Understand?

And as for you!

Turns to Shia Storm.

You are the cause for all this. If it hadn't been for you. My career wouldn't have taken such a downward spiral. And what did you do all those years? You lived off of my, what was once believed to be, destroyed legacy!

You grew stronger. You grew wiser. You grew to be on par as an equal to even the man. Who you consider to be your partner in crime. Just by your association with that little lowlife, son of a bitch Sebastian. Consider yourself suffering the same fate. Just as ANYONE who stands in my fucking way!

They will remember my name. My legacy! My wrath will be felt. This company will be destroyed! My only regret is... that Lionheart won't be here to see it happen first hand! But no matter. With or without his stench. All of those who have ever fucked me over. Past or Present. Will feel my pain!

*Chants echoed in his Gen's head*

Remember! Remember! Remember! Remember! Remember!

*Gen. covered his ears. Closing his eyes tightly. Grinding his teeth as hard as he could. As he said*

GET... OUT.... OF MY HEAD!!! MAKE EM' STOP!!! THE VOICES!!! MAKE THEM STOP!!! AHHHHHHH!!!

*After a few moments of this. Heavy breathing followed as Genesis started to calm down. What was that all about!?*

[John Costas]

A concerned John Costas walks over slowly to his son. Putting his hand on his shoulder. Asking softly:

S-Son... calm down! You need your medication. I should've known that going out here without your meds would cause this. Just hold on. Lemme fix you up.

Costas pulls out a needle & vile of some sort of medication. Placing the needle inside. He filled it up with the medicine and then proceeded to inject Genesis with it.

Until...

[evil]

Genesis did the unthinkable...

Gen. seeing his father coming after him with the needle. He backhanded him as hard as he could. Knocking Costas & the needle down to the ground. The crowd was in shock as it is. To think. What kind of person would be so cold-hearted to strike down your own father!?

But that was just the beginning of it folks. As Costas clawed, and struggled to get back on his feet. Gen. helped him up. Like, at first he felt 'sorry' for his actions. But as anyone should know. If you KNEW the old Genesis... he never gave a damn about no one but his own well being.

Gen. grappled his own father with his right hand. Placing his right arm around his neck like he was holding a hostage. Picking up the needle with his left hand. Threatening to stab him with it & inject the medication into his neck*

You fuckers got one chance... either bow down before your king? Or the old man gets it! Which is it Sebastian, Shia? HaHaHa!

[John Costas]

Stop what your doing... Genesis! Please! I beg of you! I'm your own father for crying out loud. I took care of you throughout your life. I did everything for you. Hell, I even saved your career when it could've got flushed down the toilet years ago.

Then, as a last ditch effort. He eyes both Shia & Avenger. Tears begin to pour out of his eye sockets. As he said to the gentlemen:

Guys... please! Have mercy on me! Talk some sense into him... he's not well! His anger. His rage. Its consumed him. You must stop him... for my sake! PLEASE!!!

[Brandon Payne]

Meanwhile... as this tragic turn of events was beginning to unfold. Brandon Payne, the man whom everyone 'thought' was Genesis all these years. Tried to pull himself together. Coughing, and weasing. Clutching his ribs as he looks over at Avenger & Shia Storm. Two men, who at least would've been his opponents for tonight's event. But now... that looks like to be the least of there problems.

Guys... put our differences aside. I don't care for the belts anymore. You know it as well as I do now. This is our new problem. Bigger then anything that even Christian MoneyMaker and his group could ever begin to dream about. Not even they will stop him. You've seen it now, guys. When his blind rage takes over. He will do anything to hurt anyone who stands in his way.

Now, while I may not agree with what Costas has done here this evening. He is like us all. A human being. He's made mistakes. But dammit! He's gotta live to atone for those. He must given a 2nd chance. Find it in your hears to stop Genesis. If not... then I'm afraid that he won't die until he succeeds in his mission. I might have been his casualty of war. But Costas? His own father!? Could be his first victim!

For once, I agree with John. Don't stand by and let Genesis take away another victim. If he does. He's just one step closer to getting his hands on all of us.

[/color]
BP replied, as he started coughing. His ribs were obviously broken. As it hurt for him to even speak, or to breathe. All he could do now? Was wait, and see what Avenger or Shia Storm were going to do next.[/center]

[Avenger]

*The Avenger just looked on as he sees the guy that he never thought he would see again. He pays no attention to nothing but what was going on in the ring.*

The Avenger isn't gonna beg you to stop or bow before you like you are God. So there won't be no bowing from the Avenger tonight. But what the Avenger will do like what he has always done and that is take out the trash. So Genesis you want to play these dark games well you know there is no one as dark and intense as the Avenger. You come out here and tell the story about the other place but what you failed to mention was the Avenger did do something. He walked in that meeting with the so called "owner" of that place and walked out. And why? Well because the Avenger did if for TNB and those that were there while we were not alive. It could of been easy for the Avenger to stay and make his way but he didn't. He walked out of the company and for months the Avenger was sitting at home until the Avenger got the call to go to Chicago. Now the Avenger never regretted walking out. The only thing the Avenger regretted was going!

*The fans give him a big pop. As the Avenger wasn't done talking.*

You see Genesis the Avenger won't lie and say that his Chicago times were bad. They were golden just like here. But this is the house the Avenger built! Right here in "Hot-Lanta". No matter if you like it or not this is the place you were born but not how you are now. It seems to these fans and to all around the world who are watching this live that you and the Avenger and perhaps Shia and the rest of the TNB Originals you have problems with. And that is so sad and too bad for you. Because you could of came in and did some things on your own instead of trying to make an example out of Brandon Payne. But that is just the beginning of your problems. You see what you did was make tonight's tag team match unfair and one thing the Avenger hates is to get an easy win. And there is another original in the back that the Avenger feels you destroyed his chance as well but maybe he will join us later.

You see Genesis it has always been about you and the Avenger. Never too much about Lionheart. But you got this dilemma with the Avenger and no matter how much you try to avoid it it will always be there. It is the fact that the Avenger is the best damn wrestler in all the world and the Avenger did things for the fans. The Avenger tried to take the fans out of his way one time and what did it get me? It got me a hell ride with Moneymaker and he tried to kill me like what you would of done. So to me there is no difference between you and him. Only difference is that you are a wrestler and he isn't. So you are a man that is willing to fight instead of sending goons to take care of your dirty work.

So chump this is how it is gonna work. You are gonna let go of Brandon Payne so he can at least get in the ring and fight for those tag straps. And then if you want a piece of the Avenger well?? You know how it is bro! You get in the ring and prove to the Avenger that you deserve what the Avenger has because we all know it isn't about the Avenger you desire but what the Avenger owns and has owned his whole career and that is this TNB World Title! That is what you really want. So if you really want it then stop belly aching and fight and move up and believe me when the time is right it will be you and the Avenger in this ring if you survive. What did one guy say one time? It isn't about losing but it is about surviving. Because when the Avenger gets you in the ring it will be about losing for you and not so much about surviving!

*The Avenger points at the fans and then taps his chest Christian Cage style.*

You want to pick on a man and blind side him in Brandon Payne. How about you try that with someone that won't let that happen? Why don't you do what you really want to do? The Real Genesis the Avenger felt was always here. Just now he has re-surfaced from the stench that seemed to follow the Avenger around and now the Avenger has done his Sherlock Holmes and has found it. Now the Avenger if no other TNB Original will do it will take care of this mess. Why don't you two clowns go hang out with MMI and then the Avenger with the rest of the TNB Originals can kill 2 birds with 1 stone.
