“Are you kidding me?”
Alex Jones paces back and forth. Each step hitting the floor with anger and frustration. His body beaten up and obviously hurt. His wife Sonja sits in a chair, their infant son in her arms as she looks on concerned for her husband as the NGW camera crew stays silent unsure of how to act.
“The last month I have been beaten up backstage, destroyed by an arrogant rookie, put out there in a match against the current number one contender and nI have the scars to show for it. See a few weeks ago I was getting ready to head into a match with Jaxon Richards. Kayla’s older brother. And I was fine and dandy with it, I knew that he’s a big tough guy but I also knew I have been beaten up by bigger and walked out the winner. I was ready to go to war but as I made my way towards that ring, I saw Kayla….I saw that arrogant little smile. I saw the NGW title on her shoulder. And curiosity got the better of me…”
“I should have known better. I should have been able to see it coming but instead I let my own focus get the better of me. I let Kayla and the title make me blind. And I paid for it. I should have known the family, I should have known the group. See the destroyers want to take everything for themselves and the scariest part is they get stronger and better as time goes on. And if they lose something they seem to come back better. They lost Coda. They lost the young lions championship. But they gained a six foot nine destructive force that isn’t bound by the same honor as Coda….”
“And that big bastard threw me around like a ragdoll before going out to the ring and waiting there. Now as I heard his music playing and I knew he was out there I was laying in the remnants of that table and I heard voices. I heard the medical staff calling for a stretcher, I heard them asking for an ambulance to take me to the hospital…”
“But then I knew, they’d win. They’d get what they wanted. They’d get Alex Jones out of the ring and Jaxon a cheap win. I couldn't have that. So I dragged my carcass out to that ring to fight. I put all of myself into that and I attacked him as best I could with everything I had. The dust settled and I lost. The pain was too much to bare and he was able to still get his hand raised but Jaxon knew...HE KNEW...he was in a fight.”
Alex pauses for a moment and seems to snarl as Sonja gave a little grin as Dylan cooed in her arms. Alex took a deep breath and continued in a low almost gravelled tone.
“You can’t let them get away with this stuff man. And Avery Miles was able to beat Jaxon, he got hurt to but he was still able to get out a win and strike back at them. But then a few weeks later I get put in a match with Johnny Maverick the number one contender for the NGW title. And hey, no excuses, Johnny Maverick is an amazing professional wrestler. He took me down, he beat me up and he forced me to choose between tapping out or not being able to hold my son. It was an easy decision in hindsight.”
“But still Johnny Maverick proved that underneath the fun happy go lucky persona and weirdness there beats the heart of a dangerous badass ready to go out there and beat the living hell out of anyone in his way and I hope to god that he beats Kayla for that championship. See Johnny is a guy that deserves it. But while he goes on and has that to look forward to I have my own brass ring dangling above me. The NGW global cup. And in the first round I guess I got the short straw cause here I am against the man, the myth, the legend that is John Blade.”
“I mean my god here’s a guy who when he works out and does push ups he actually pushes the world down. I mean here’s a man who got bitten by a rattlesnake and after 17 agonising hours the snake died. John Blade is a king among princes, a true warrior and professional wrestler of honor, respect and passion….but is he really?...”
Alex’s smile fades as he takes a deep breath in.
“John Blade likes to push himself forward as a champion and as some kind of machine with hustle loyalty and respect. Right?. That’s what the dumb fucking shirt says?. But if we look at your win loss record there goes hustle. I mean damn John you have a worse win loss record than the cleveland browns have in the last five years. But we can probably look past that right?. But what about loyalty?. Are you really loyal?. Do you have any friends aside from the Hixx’s?. Latoya and ALicia seem to be floating around wherever you are, hell I beat Latoya a few weeks back…”
“And you’re not loyal to any one company. You’re in more companies than me bro. And by the way John, in our wrestling lives together we have been in 10 matches against each other...10…”
“4 of those were tag matches, ones you lost but I want to talk about something else. The 0-6 record in singles matches you have against me John. No wins, six losses. And see this is where the third part of your little attitude comes in. Respect. You respect people right John boy?. Then why is i9t after 2 years of facing in other in tag matches and singles matches where I have basically made you my botch you have never once shown me an ounce of respect. Hell when I was WWH champion all you did every damn week was call me out, but never to my face. Hell over in Honor wrestling you are doing the same thing yet all the times I’ve beaten you...you have never so much as shaken my hand and said “Good job champ”. And that?...that I cannot let slide. I cannot let the lie of John Blade be told any longer...the lie of you being a respectful champion…”
“And here we are John the first round of the Global cup where I will be out there ready to beat the hell out of you and you will be there to take your loss then forget it even happened the next show...cause that is what you do….”
Alex turns and walks away for a second before quickly turning around holding the Honor championship.
“By the way John..the champ is here….”
