GCW Vindication
:Scene:
A visibly distraught John Styles is slumped over a storage container backstage after suffering another loss to Andreas Landa. He unravels his wrist tape and throws it at the wall.
Blake Reed:
"John...John, I know you don't really want to talk right now but-"
John Styles:
"Actually that sounds like a great idea...whatever your name is, why don't we have a little chit-chat? Come have a seat my dear."
"Well...how about we talk about your current string of Loses to "The Giant" Andreas Landa?"
"Well, I did pin him at One, so there's that isn't there?"
"True, but you had help from your...your...from Darius Seeiso. Even in a 2 on 1 handicap you couldn't beat him."
"I wouldn't necessarily call it "help", Darius wanted to get into Andreas' head, he did, and then I capitalized."
"And that has somewhat seemed to lead to the the match we'll finally get to see next week. The longest rivalry in GCW history, John Styles and Darius Seeiso is finally going to come to blows. Is this it? Is this the end?"
"Yes. Win, Lose or Draw, This will be the end of it. I've tried to make amends with Darius but to no avail, and him requesting this match with me is simply him shooting himself in the foot."
"You're confident you can beat him, despite your recent losing streak to Andreas?"
"Absolutely. Darius said he wanted to solve his own problems with Andy, If I had beaten him, what problems are there left to solve? But somehow he didn't see it that way and now here we are, but quite frankly it's time to take off the cruise control and get right back to 100 because the truth is, I can beat anyone on this roster, and twice on Sundays...well...Fridays."
"So if you beat...or as I'm sure you'll correct me after I'm finished, when you beat Darius Seeiso, what's next for John Styles?"
"Well first, I'm gonna focus on making it rain in the Tokyo Dome, just like a good friend of mine does at the start of every year, and all of that rain? It's landing right on Mr Seeiso. It's gonna hit him like a Tombstone Piledriver and it's gonna send him spinning and when it's all said and done, he's going to take a fall from grace like the one winged angel he thinks he is. After that though...after that I'm calling some bluffs and going all in, you see some people have said things about me that plenty others have said in the past, and it all ends the same. I'm not looking past Kaiju, I'm looking right at it, cause I got a golden ticket baby and I plan on turning the Tokyo Dome into Willy Wonkas Chocolate factory. That's what's next for THE...JOHN...STYLES!"
Kidd West:
"Fine speech...let's talk."
"Business calls..."
Styles and West head, not to Wests office, but a small room away from everybody.
"Here? You wanna talk here?"
"I think my office might be bugged, and what we need to talk about is for our ears only."
"Let me guess...you think it's time?"
"Bingo."
"You're 100% sure about this? With Mason being champ and all I just don't think I sh-"
"Trust me, it's now or never"
"Let me get this straight...you want me to cash in...on Mason fucking James? Are you nuts?"
"Well, do you really think anyone else can take that title away from him?"
"No, but when I win...rematch? I don't wanna die man."
"Don't worry about it, I'll pull some strings."
"Alright, so how do we do it? Wait till Mason beats the piss out of Andrew then-"
"Actually...I was thinking you should cash in before the match starts."
"Wh...Ok that's it, you've lost it man"
"Hold on, hold on. Just hear me out. He's not expecting you to cash in at all, and if you were to, he'd expect you to do it after the match. By making it a triple threat, you're throwing him off his game...plus, if you end up pinning Andrew, that'll give you an even better case to get out of a rematch with Mason."
"Well...I don't know how, but you've convinced me."
"Good, cause I didn't have much else to convince you with."
"So this plan...it's great and all, but one final thing...what about Darius? Whether I win or lose, he's still not gonna want to see me with that belt..."
"I've had a talk with him...he'll be of no bother to you."
"Lets hope this goes to plan then huh?"
"Yeah...lets."
The two shake hands and leave their separate ways. West heads back to his office, while Styles sticks around and makes a phone call.
"Clint, it's John."
Clint Bishop:
"I have caller ID you know..."
"Whatever. Anyways, listen. I'm cashing in at Kaiju."
"What? Against Mason? Are you stupid or something?"
"No, no. West has a great plan, I think it's gonna work out great."
"Of course he does...John, he's playing you..."
"It's not like that man..."
"He's trying to get you to cash in so you get your ass whooped and so you lose your briefcase."
"Trust me Clint, that's not the case."
"John, please. You need to listen to me. You need to beat Darius and then take out West so we can finally run this company."
"That's not gonna happen Clint. West is a good man."
"You're telling me you're really siding with them now..."
"I'm not siding with "them", I'm siding with him. Darius Seeiso is the problem. Kidd West may be the owner of GCW but he's not a leader. He was just following Darius, but I think I've changed him, even if it's just a little bit, he's not the same guy that you think he is."
"John...you don't understand...he'll have me fired if you don't end him."
"I'll put in a good word for you Clint, you've been good to me, but I don't need you anymore. I'm cashing in my contract whether you like it or not and there's not a damn person in this world who can stop me. If you finally come to your senses, maybe we can work together again in the future, but for now, it's goodbye."
"Good-"

"Bye..."
