SETTLING SCORES (Nobbs, LH, Styles ment.)

[Craig Helman]

Am I Evil plays over the arena speakers as Craig Helman makes his way out onto the stage and toward the ring with a determined look on his face.

First things first, I overheard Chris Lionheart say in the back that he wants people who will go to war for him or to go to war against him, listen Chris, I personally have no intention of going to war against you, I come out here every night and give this company all that I got, I am an a wrestler signed to Innovation Wrestling and nothing else, and if it is a more determined wrestler that you want to go to war for you, I guarantee you that in the time to come, you will see a change in this ring, whether it be a change for the better or one for the worse, it will be hard to determine, but enough about all that, I have other business to attend to that is directed to others.

Helman looks around the arena at all the fans before he continues.

Now I would like to address Lucas Styles, Lucas, the only reason why I didnt say a thing to you when you came out here and said something about seeing how I would fair with my face underneath your boot, I have respect for the name Styles, and that respect comes from traveling around the globe a long time ago with your brother Sylas, stepping into the ring with other competitors, facing each other at times, Sylas and I go back a long way, even if he doesnt remember, I remember, it was a time when I was in a darker place and there have been certain events that have been throwing me back into that deep dark place, that is why when I first started wrestling for this company, I tried to hide who I was by wearing glasses to this ring and wrestling with them on. But then I met someone that showed me that you can not hide who you truly are and that I should release my true self out of the shell that I had put myself in when I lost someone close to me. So if you really want to challenge a person that respects the name of Styles, then you and I can step into this ring and give these fans a match, but if you want a friend that will have your back, I am offering that to you as well, the choice is yours.

Helman lowers the mic, runs his fingers through his hair, turns to look out at the arena stage and the fans before raising the mic back up.

Now for the last little bit of business that I came out here to talk about, and that is none other then the man that I stood in this ring and confronted the last time that I was out here, and that is Kyle Nobbs. Nobbs, you came out here running your mouth saying that you desrve this and you deserve that, claiming that you beat me like you said that you were going to, yeah you were right, you did beat me, but in all honesty, you didnt beat me on your own in a one on one match, our first and only match so far was a triple threat match. You see Kyle, it is easy to beat someone when there are other factors involved in the match and that third person was indeed a factor that I hadnt intended on, I have been facing people my whole life that have pushed me to the edge, I have faced people that I have had to deal with both personally and professionally that have gotten under my skin and I have walked away.

Helman looks back out to the I:w fans before continuing what he was saying.

But I stand in this ring right now and I am letting everyone know that no one and I repeat NO ONE will get under my skin again to the point that I walk away. If someone pushes me, I am going to push back, I am no longer going to let anyone walk over me and get away with it. I am here to wrestle and if need to, I am here to fight. Chris Lionheart wants someone that is willing to go to war for him, I will be the first person to step up. No more sucking up to anyone, I am willing to prove myself in this ring and I am willing to take on whoever wants to step in the ring with me, I guarantee that when they step through these ropes that they will not be facing the same person that they have faced before, they are going to face THE CRAZED ONE, I may not be the Alpha, but I damn sure will be the OMEGA, and if anyone has a problem with that, then let the bodies line up in the back, sign their names on the line and win or lose, let them know that they have been in one hell of a fight.

[Lucas Styles]

Well isn't that something..

Broken and battered from Nobbs' violent assault days ago, Lucas walks out onto the stage. He has a bandage wrapped round his head and he's walking with stiff and pained movements.

Craig, I think if you maybe slowed down on occasion and took a breath here and there, you'd start catching your contradictions. Let us review, shall we? You come out here, and kiss my ass. When I said I'd put your face under my boot, I wasn't kidding, and I definitely wasn't meaning it from a place of respect.

You see I've grown tired of your kind. You're too…nice. If you're going to go anywhere, you need to put this "real" you away and find something better, because clearly it's not working for you. You're going to push back and not let people walk all over you? Did you not just let me do that?

A look of confusion is present on Lucas' face as he truly is at a loss for what is going on with this character in the ring. On one hand he's saying how much he respects the Styles' and wants Lucas to be his friend. He then states that he doesn't want to suck up to anyone, although Lucas' contempt is clear. He views Craig as the guy offering everyone a beer at a party for fear of getting his ass kicked.


Now listen here, bud, I know you're itching to get at Nobbs and you think you're the one to lead Lionheart's army, but you just don't have it in you. Once again, you're just too nice about it.

You know where being nice gets you? Sitting in the ring begging for matches. You know where being Lucas Styles gets you?

Lucas gestures to his injuries that he sustained from Nobbs.

Bad blood gets you places. Bad blood is what this business is built on and I think you're due for a few new scars.

Go on respecting me and having my back all you want, you're going to owe it to me after I break you and show you who you really are. I'll shatter everything you think you know about yourself, everything you think you know about this business and every goddamn bone in your body to prove to you what needs to be done, to get somewhere.

Alas, I've got another fuckwit to deal with right now too. A man that may just be the glorious anti-hero you're all begging to have shut me up. A man that needs to rely on, sneak attacks because his feelings are hurt. Yeah Kyle I'm most obviously talking to you, sorry if you didn't catch that Helman, I'll slow it down next time.

Get out here. Now. We're finishing this.

Lucas turns his back to Helman, and slowly walks backwards down the ramp, waiting for the arrival of Nobbs.

[Kyle Nobbs]

*Instead of appearing on the stage, however, the tron crackles and flickers and snows a bit. Static sounds through the arena and suddenly Kyle's face appears on the screen. He's got his typical smirk, and he's almost chuckling to himself in the way he's been doing lately. He isn't looking at either man in particular, but is probably looking at a monitor out back relaying the situation to him.

Kyle shakes his head as he sees Lucas backing up, giving him some room to come out onto the stage. But it would appear that he didn't have any intention of doing that tonight.*

"Come on now, Lucas. Really? I'd have figured, given our history together, you'd think just a little bit higher of me. I mean, I know I haven't always come across as the sharpest knife in the drawer, but really, do you think I'm that stupid as to come down to that ring and put myself into a 2 on 1 situation?

I'm not stupid, Lucas. And the quicker you get that through your thick skull, the better. By the way, lucky you're skull's as thick as it is, yeah? Nice bruise you have up there buddy."

*And then Kyle really chuckles to himself, for a moment. But as soon as it starts, it finishes, and he's all Mr. Serious Business.*

"You want to finish things with me, Styles? Well I'm afraid that's just not gonna happen tonight. I know I told Lionheart that I'd fight you this week... But you know, thinking on it... That just doesn't sound like a good idea. You seem upset, you seem... volatile. I saw what happens when you blow up, Styles. You smash offices. I'm not about to let you smash my face tonight...

Unless, of course, you sweeten the deal a little bit."

[Lucas Styles]

Hilarity.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA…oh God let me catch my breath.

In complete hysterics Lucas falls to the ground in laughter, as the crowd and both Chris and Kyle appear puzzled. He manages to get to his hands and knees before using the guard rail to pull himself back to his feet. He struggles slightly due to his injuries, but he doesn't let it show. Back on his feet he gets a few slaps on the shoulder from devoted fans of I:W's newest plague.

You seriously think I'd want help from this punk Nobbs? I mean yeah, you're fucking stupid…but I didn't think you were that stupid. I'd be better off getting Phyllis Diller to come and partner up with me.

Too soon? This is Lucas Styles. Regardless the crowd lets out a hiss of displeasure at his statements, to which he just smiles and revels within their curses. He feeds and thrives on their hatred.

You wanna make things interesting though do you? You want to, spice things up? Seeing as you clearly need to use anything you can get your hands on to stand a chance, why don't we do this right here. Right now. We'll even bring little Chris along too. No rules, all violence.

Lucas' smile turns utterly sickening, and his eyes seem to shine brighter than ever with the thoughts of hurting these men. He became a wrestler for love of the sport, but he now loves being a wrestler for the sport of breaking people's will, shattering their spirits and wrecking careers.[/center]

[Kyle Nobbs]

*And Kyle's smirk almost matches Lucas's sickening smile. Now, he had a chance to exact revenge on his former friend.*

"All violence, I like. No rules? Ehhh... I don't know if I like THAT part so much. But what about this... You, me... We fight. No holds barred, hell grab a weapon or two if you want to. But we just have this one rule. To finish this fight, we have to knock out the other guy."

[Chris Lionheart]

Lionheart appears on the video screen, surveying the situation...

Well it looks like everyone out here has beef with everyone else, doesn't it? How about we have ourselves a little Three Way Dance, elimination style? That way after the first person has been disposed-of the remaining two can attempt to settle their differences one on one.

He pauses to see what the wrestlers think of the match proposal.

[Craig Helman]

Helmans demeanor seems to have changed as he looks at the three men standing in front of him.


You know what Lionheart, a three way dance elimination style is fine with me, I will show you that there is no more being mister nice guy from me, this will be settled one way or another. OH and Lucas, I may respect your brother, but you can forget what I said earlier about if you wanting a friend to help you take care of Kyle Nobbs, you can get your brother, you can try and run me into the ground but you will never break me from who I am and I act or from what I do. And Kyle, dont think that I have forgotten about what you said about me. Our little dispute is far from over, you can try to attack me form behind like you did Lucas earlier, but I want you to know that I like pain, pain is like a family member to me.

Helman looks around the arena before continuing.

So Lucas, I will not be broken and Kyle, I have a few surprises for you when we step into the ring. Hell, Lucas and Kyle, I have a few surprises for the both of you when we face off.

[Lucas Styles]

There is a strong mix of anger and joy crackling inside Lucas' at the news of this match. He wants to destroy both men, but at the same time, he seconds guesses himself briefly. Briefly.

Sounds fine to me Chris.

He points a finger towards the titantron which still presents a growing nemesis and an already very prevalent, and literal, pain in his neck.

You won't have to worry about seeing that piece of trash running his mouth.

His finger glides through the air and lands pointing at Helman.

And him? You probably won't have to worry about seeing him around here, period.

Lucas drops the mic on the ramp and hops the guard rail, leaving through the crowd.[/center][/font]
