:::EARLIER THIS WEEK:::
The roar of motorcycles can be heard as the pack of Harleys make their way down the highway. The video cuts in to show seven Harley Davidsons in a small formation, taking up two lanes. With the exception of one bike, each one has one man on it with helmets and black biker jackets with 'MARA' on the back in white letters and a pair of Devil Horns below it also in white. The other bike, in the center, has two riders on it. One is a large muscular man and then a woman is on the back of the bike, her arms wrapped around his waist. She is also wearing a helmet and the dreads sticking out from underneath it give her away to be JJ, making it obvious that the man on the front of the bike is WCF United States champion, Hector Rodriguez.
The biker in the front sticks an arm up, waves it around, and then points to an off-ramp coming up in the distance. He puts his arm down and speeds the bike up a little bit as he points it towards the exit ramp. The rest of the bikers steer their bikes behind him, also heading towards the exit ramp. The pack of bikers slow down a little at a yield sign, then they speed through the turn as there's no traffic coming. The group pulls through the busy streets of a town, going through intersection after intersection as if all the stoplights knew they were coming and turned green just for them.
The lead biker puts his arm up and closes his fist as he starts to slow his bike down. He pulls into a parking lot, followed by the rest of the group. Everyone lines their bikes up against the side of a building and turn them off. After getting off their bikes and unzipping their jackets, everyone starts taking off their helmets. The lead biker turns out to be Adrian, the big bald biker that was at ringside last week during Hector's tag team match. Spotted easily a couple of bikes down from him is Phobeya, the other man that was ringside with Hector and JJ.
Hector and JJ take off their helmets and set them down on Hector's bike. Adrian walks over to Hector and holds his fist out which Hector bumps. Adrian grins and nods his head.
Adrian
Hector, mi amigo. You weren't lying when you said you knew how to ride a bike.
Biker
I bet that's not the only thing he knows how to ride.
The biker says this, looking at JJ. A few of the guys snicker. JJ's eyes grow wide and she walks up to the man.
JJ
Look here puta, I'll cut your damn throat out if you ever talk about me like that again.
The biker chuckles but his eyes grow wide and he looks down to see a knife pressed to his groin. JJ smiles sweetly at him before putting her knife away. Suddenly, Adrian's ringer on his cell phone goes off. He pulls it out and curses under his breath as he answers it.
Adrian
Yo, Diagur. What's up, vato? Yeah I left Miguel's ass back at my place. I wasn't taking him out on one of those fucking ricers. You know how much of a bitch he looks riding one of those? Oh yeah, here let me pass the phone around and you can ask which one of the guys wants another guy riding bitch.
The bikers laugh and one of them spews his drink everywhere that he had apparently brought with him and started drinking from.
Adrian
Yeah, that's not how bikers do. You let me handle the bikers, I'll let you handle the people riding in limos. Yeah, ok. Later, hermano.
Adrian hangs up the phone and walks back over to his bike. He reaches into a bag strapped to the bike and pulls out a couple of baseball bats. He turns to Hector and tosses one of the bats to him. Hector looks down at the bat and then back at Adrian curiously. Phobeya walks over and slaps Hector on the back of the shoulder as he stands beside him, a lead pipe on his shoulder.
Phobeya
You think we were on some kind of charity run here, Hector? We're not some biker club who raises money for kids.
JJ
What are we out here for, Phobeya?
Phobeya turns to JJ.
Phobeya
Mr. Miyagi hasn't been paying protection money to us lately.
JJ looks around curiously.
JJ
Protection from what? Isn't that a little cliche?
Phobeya grins.
Phobeya
He isn't into coke or anything like that so we wanted a reason to get money from him. It was either he buy drugs from us for significantly more or he pay us to not come break his wallet and his back.
Adrian turns and starts walking across the street towards a store called China China. It's a store with plates and glass everywhere. Some of the bikers, some of who are carrying weapons, are looking at the china from the street as if they're a kid heading into a candy store with a pocket full of quarters.
Biker
China China? What the hell. Can we break this guy's legs simply for the name of the store and THEN handle business?
Adrian
No one breaks nothing until I say to.
The MS-13 members reach the door and Adrian opens the door and walks in. A petite Chinese woman walks up quietly as the men walk into the store.
Woman
What do you think you're doing?!
Adrian turns to the woman.
Adrian
We're here to see Mr. Miyagi.
Woman
I don't know who that is and you're not going anywhere.
Adrian
Oh yeah? Why not and who is going to stop us?
Woman
I will. I spent all of weekend cleaning up carpet last time you were here. You are going to take off your shoes just like everyone else who enters our store.
The woman stands defiantly in front of the bikers, crossing her arms. Hector looks down to his right to see a couple of pairs of shoes on a mat. Adrian snickers and palms the woman's cranium and shoves her out of the way, knocking her to the floor as he walks across the store, followed by Hector, Phobeya, and JJ. A small man comes out from the back at the sound of the commotion. His eyes grow wide as he sees them and he fumbles behind the desk for something as he speaks.
Man
You go away bad men! We no know you!
The man pulls out a pistol from behind the desk but Adrian is already within arms length and brings the bat down upon the Chinese man's gun arm. A cracking down is heard as the man drops the gun and holds his arm, howling in pain. The woman comes running down another aisle.
Woman
You terrible brown men, you go away!
Phobeya goes to hit the woman but Adrian grabs his arm and shakes his head.
Adrian
Look Mr. Chan, we told you if you stopped paying, we'd come in and take it out on your store.
The man still howls in pain but he is able to compose himself enough to answer Adrian.
Man
We no have money. Economy bad, bad for us, too.
From the front of the store, one of the bikers pipes in.
Biker
What? You can't call Jackie for some money?
Mr. Chan looks towards the biker.
Mr. Chan
Who Jackie?
The bikers start laughing at the front of the store. Suddenly, one of the china plates falls to the floor and breaks. Adrian looks towards the bikers.
Adrian
HEY! I said wait!
Phobeya looks at Mrs. Chan.
Phobeya
If you've got no money, you need to be turning this bitch out on the street corner doing the whole "wax on, wax off" bit to guys on the street. I wouldn't mind waxing this bitch.
Phobeya makes a rude gesture at the woman as the bikers at the front of the store roar with laughter.
Mr. Chan
We no have money. Mrs. Chan no whore like your mother either. So you go away, no come back.
Phobeya lunges forward to strangle the man for badmouthing his mother but Hector and Adrian hold him back. Adrian turns to Hector.
Adrian
That's enough, Hector teach him what it means to mess with Mara Salvatrucha.
Hector looks at JJ who nods at him. Hector walks over to one of the aisles on the sides. He grabs a glass cup and drops it to the ground, causing it to shatter glass everywhere. Adrian gives him a look.
Adrian
Hector, what was that?
Hector shrugs and grabs a plate. He hurls it against the walll. Cheers come from the bikers up front. Adrian facepalms and then looks at Hector again.
Adrian
Hector, what the hell are you doing? We're not here to bother them, we're here to teach them a lesson.
Hector looks visibly annoyed and walks over to the middle of the row. He can be heard grunting and straining. A couple of plates and cups fall off his shelf and Adrian starts to say something else when Hector yells out. Suddenly, the entire shelf tips over and slams into the next row, throwing all the plates, cups and other china off the shelves, shattering on the floor. The impact causes the second row to tip into the third one, which creates a domino effect until it reaches the other side of the store.
Everyone's jaws drop as the last plates and cups drop to the ground. Hector has basically demolished the entire store. The Chinese woman faints onto some glass. One of the bikers up front throws down his lead pipe.
Biker
Well FUCK, Hector. You destroyed all of it.
The biker stands there for a second and then picks his lead pipe up and turns and breaks one of the glass doors at the entrance. He then walks out of the store followed by the other bikers. Phobeya starts laughing loudly and gestures for JJ and Hector to climb over the shelves as they make their way to the front of the store. Adrian turns to Mr. Chan.
Adrian
Consider us even.
Mr. Chan
EVEN!?!? You destroy my life! You destroy all my money!
Mr. Chan continues ranting and raving at Adrian as he climbs over the shelves and goes out of the door. The video cuts out momentarily.
:::THAT NIGHT:::
The video cuts back into the poolside area of Diagur's hacienda. Gathered around one of the tables are the bikers from the china shop, some other bikers, and other non-biker gang members of MS-13. Also present at the table are Hector, JJ, and both Adrian and Phobeya. The only empty seat is that of Diagur.
Biker
Yeah, so Hector's dumb ass just shoves over the entire shelf and demolishes the entire store in like five seconds. It was insane, man!
Another biker
It brought a tear to my eye, man. I'm so proud of our fledgling Mara member.
A couple of the bikers laugh and pat Hector on the back. A couple of them lean over and pour some of their own beer into Hector's glass. JJ turns to Adrian.
JJ
So what did Diagur have to say about what Hector did?
Adrian smiles.
Adrian
He thought it was the funniest thing he's ever heard. He wishes he could have been there. He wants Hector to help out more, but we need to supervise him more is what Diagur said.
Everyone starts laughing again as Hector grins sheepishly. Suddenly from around the corner come a couple of large Hispanic men dragging a white man who is dressed up. It's Hank Brown. Everyone laughs at Hank as he's pulled over to the table.
JJ
HANK!
The two bodyguards stop and look up at JJ curiously.
Bodyguard
You know this gringo, JJ?
JJ
Yeah, let that white boy go. He's here for me and Hector.
Hank pulls away from the two men and stares back at them defiantly.
Hank Brown
I TOLD YOU!
One of the bodyguards jumps at Hank. He screams and runs up to JJ. Everyone at the table roars with laughter at Hank's scream. Hank finally composes himself and looks at JJ and Hector.
Hank Brown
Well, hey JJ and Hector. How has your day been?
One of the bikers pipes in.
Biker
An earth shattering experience.
Everyone except for Hank laughs. One of the bikers turns to another.
Biker
Doesn't he mean china shattering?
A few people groan and punch the guy for the lame joke. He shrugs and grins sheepishly as Hank turns to Hector with a confused look on his face.
Hank Brown
I'm kinda suprised that you invited me here to one of the homes of MS-13, Hector.
JJ
Yeah, this is Hector's home now. Not literally his home, but he stays here a lot now. He's a member of the family.
A couple of gang members cheer and reach over, patting Hector on the back and shoulders. Hank turns and looks at Adrian and Phobeya who are sitting beside each other.
Hank Brown
Oh, Adrian and Phobeya, it's nice to see you two here. It was a pleasure meeting you two the other night...despite what happened to Tank Reaper last week.
Phobeya grins.
Phobeya
How is Tank Reaper doing this week?
Hank Brown
Well they still don't know as of this time. He's out of action for a while is all I know. This week definitely. You guys did a number on him. He was completely laid out and lost a lot of blood.
Adrian
Well, that's what he gets for getting in the way of Hector Rodriguez and D-Day. They're the future WCF tag team champions. They're going to be wrestling at the PPV next week for the tag team titles and MS-13 will make sure of that.
Hank Brown
Well, you know who is in the way of them this week right? Torture and Creeping Death.
Phobeya scoffs.
Phobeya
So? You think we care who gets in the way? Shit...Reaper...Creeping...Death...Torture..Slaughter. All these fucking people with nouns and verbs as their ring names. You think it matters to us?
Hank smiles in disbelief.
Hank Brown
Do you not know who Torture and Creeping Death are in WCF?
Phobeya
No. Should I?
JJ sighs.
JJ
Forgive them, Hank. They don't watch wrestling as much as some of the others here do. Adrian does this because Diagur put him in charge of helping Hector and Phobeya does it so he can have someone with big muscles help with his business issues. Both Hector and myself are very aware of these two men. They've been with WCF for years. We've done our homework. Creeping Death has won the world title multiple times, no he's worn most of the belts in WCF. Torture himself is a multiple time world champion. He held the world title for almost the entire year last year.
This is a huge match for Hector Rodriguez and D-Day. We've spoken to D-Day and he agrees with that. This isn't like their match a couple of weeks ago against the former tag team champions where they walked into the match and had one guy not even show up. The challenge that the two men had last week against Tank Reaper and Ace Slaughter is nothing compared to the challenge before them this week. Torture and Creeping Death got this far in the tournament by defeating Jay Price and Greenfever last week, two men who hold wins over Hector. Hector wasn't able to pin them during his encounters with them, but Torture and Creeping Death were successful in their match.
Hank Brown
Does knowing that make Hector think he might lose?
JJ
No. Those losses to Jay Price were questionable in the first place and both the losses to Jay and Greenfever...those were in the past. Those were last year. That was then...this is now. Hector is on a roll this year. He is on an unstoppable roll. A tag team match against two former world champions. A tag team match against two of the top stars in WCF will not stop that roll he's on. Hector and D-Day both knew that when they stepped into the ring for their first tournament match that eventually they would likely have to face top tag teams here in WCF on their way to the tag team titles match next week.
Hank Brown
You know that Seth Lerch has known these men for years. He has been associated with them both. The hatred between Seth Lerch and Hector Rodriguez isn't something that people don't know about. Everyone that follows WCF is very familiar with Hector's issues with Seth since he stepped into WCF. Word even has it that Seth wasn't too happy with Adrian and Phobeya's actions in the tag team match last week. He wanted a fair tournament for the tag team titles.
Adrian
Seth Lerch? Isn't that the guy that runs the company?
Hank Brown nods.
Adrian
You think me and Phobeya give a shit what that gringo thinks? Fuck him and his tournament. We'll do whatever we want in WCF. I'd love to see him try and stop us. People constantly underestimate MS-13. They act like we're some joke. Why don't you ask the critics some questions for me...if we're a joke, why is Hector the US champion? If we're a joke, then how is it that Tank Reaper was lying in a pool of his own blood with a chain wrapped around his thick neck? If we're a joke, then why are Hector and D-Day in the semi-finals of the tag team tournament? Seth doesn't like Hector? Fine. I hope Seth Lerch sticks his nose in our business. I'll personally take him out myself.
JJ
To answer your question, Hank, yes we're aware that both Torture and Creeping Death are known associates of Seth. Like Adrian said, we're prepared. Even though you didn't mention it, I'm sure that Seth Lerch isn't too happy that Hector is the United States champion and now he's on the verge of becoming a double champion with D-Day. Speaking of D-Day, people keep starting rumors that Hector and D-Day aren't on the same page. Those rumors have been squashed by myself and Hector when we met with D-Day earlier in the week. Hector and MS-13 have D-Day's back as long as he pulls his weight in these matches. We know that D-Day has the problem with his arm right now, but even with the broken arm, he's still pulling more than the weight he's expected to. People can keep starting rumors in WCF all they want, but D-Day and Hector Rodriguez are on the same page. They will remain that way this week and then next week at the pay-per-view.
Hank Brown
The pay-per-view? So are you confident that Hector and D-Day can pull out a win this week? Even with D-Day's arm?
JJ
Yes, we are still confident. D-Day's arm didn't affect us last week, especially since Adrian and Phobeya disposed of Tank Reaper near the end of the match. They defeated the largest man in wrestling today and the former United States champion. Despite that, two former world champions is a step up in a way. I mean let's look back. The first match was against the former tag team champions, The New Confederacy. One of them is a former world champion. Then Hector and D-Day defeat a team with the former US champion. Now they're against two former world champions. Hector and D-Day have been going up against some of the top superstars of the company and coming out on top. Now it seems that they have reached the top. Their battle now has gone from climbing the ladder of WCF to playing a king of the hill game. Hector and D-Day are reaching the pinnacle and are ready to start tossing people off the top.
Hector himself is the United States champion. In singles action, he's one step away from the top. All he has to do is get a shot at the world champion to be at the top of the mountain. Hector has battled and clawed his way to the top of WCF and isn't about to be knocked off by Torture and Creeping Death. This match will be huge. The United States champion teaming with the Television Champion to take on the pairing of Torture and Creeping Death. The main event. This match here could very well overshadow the matches at the pay-per-view itself. Compared to this match, the finals of the tag team title tournament could very well be nothing compared to this match. Ladykillers versus Torture and Creeping Death? Amazing match, match of the year quality. Let's be honest here though. It's not just Hector and D-Day versus Torture and Creeping Death. Adrian and Phobeya's interference last week wasn't a one-time thing. They will be involved again this week.
Hank Brown
For what reason? Is MS-13 not confident in the ability of both Hector and D-Day to get the job done?
JJ laughs.
JJ
Hank, Hank, Hank. It's already been said before that Diagur and Mara Salvatrucha are more than confident in the ability of Hector and D-Day, but what's the fun in MS-13 sitting back and watching? Besides, you just said yourself that Seth is a known associate of both of Hector and D-Day's opponents. MS-13 will take no chances. Just like last week, MS-13 will make sure that Hector and D-Day win...even if they have to injure another WCF superstar.
Hank Brown
Yeah, well Torture and Creeping Death also saw the match last week. They will likely be prepared for Adrian and Phobeya's interference. They're both experienced in battling multiple opponents, even those not scheduled for their matches.
Phobeya
Who the hell do you think we are? You think we don't know this either. We'll do whatever it takes. They can't be watching their own backs all the time. They also can't be watching each other's back all the time either.
Hank Brown
Something that hasn't been brought up is the fact that Hector and Torture will finally be in the ring together, wrestling against each other.
Hector grins and shakes his head, smiling.
JJ
Yeah, I remember the days of the Team of Torture when Hector was battling against Torture's friends. I also remember the days of Hector saying he was gunning for Torture and would one day be in the ring with him. You're right, Hank. Looks like that day has finally come. Hector has been waiting for this opportunity for a while. Depending on how they do in the match, this right here could be the match that determines where Hector and D-Day belong in the company. They have two things to prove: that they deserve a shot at the tag team titles and that they are main event level competitors. This isn't Hector's first time wrestling in a main event on WCF television, but it has been a while since he last did so.
This week on Slam, it will be a battle for the ages. This week on Slam Hector and D-Day will enter the ring against Torture and Creeping Death. When the smoke clears, they will be standing in the ring victorious against two of their biggest opponents to date. Torture, Creeping Death. When you're left lying in the ring bloody and broken like Tank Reaper...don't take it personally. You were just in the way of MS-13 taking over WCF. The chaos and mayhem caused by the Dark Side or the calculated dominance of the Team of Torture will be nothing compared to the terrible hold that Mara Salvatrucha will have upon Wrestling Championship Federation. It begins when two of its biggest superstars fall this week on Slam...
The video slowly cuts out.
The roar of motorcycles can be heard as the pack of Harleys make their way down the highway. The video cuts in to show seven Harley Davidsons in a small formation, taking up two lanes. With the exception of one bike, each one has one man on it with helmets and black biker jackets with 'MARA' on the back in white letters and a pair of Devil Horns below it also in white.

She is also wearing a helmet and the dreads sticking out from underneath it give her away to be JJ, making it obvious that the man on the front of the bike is WCF United States champion, Hector Rodriguez.
The biker in the front sticks an arm up, waves it around, and then points to an off-ramp coming up in the distance. He puts his arm down and speeds the bike up a little bit as he points it towards the exit ramp. The rest of the bikers steer their bikes behind him, also heading towards the exit ramp. The pack of bikers slow down a little at a yield sign, then they speed through the turn as there's no traffic coming. The group pulls through the busy streets of a town, going through intersection after intersection as if all the stoplights knew they were coming and turned green just for them.
The lead biker puts his arm up and closes his fist as he starts to slow his bike down. He pulls into a parking lot, followed by the rest of the group. Everyone lines their bikes up against the side of a building and turn them off. After getting off their bikes and unzipping their jackets, everyone starts taking off their helmets. The lead biker turns out to be Adrian, the big bald biker that was at ringside last week during Hector's tag team match. Spotted easily a couple of bikes down from him is Phobeya, the other man that was ringside with Hector and JJ.
Hector and JJ take off their helmets and set them down on Hector's bike. Adrian walks over to Hector and holds his fist out which Hector bumps. Adrian grins and nods his head.
Adrian
Hector, mi amigo. You weren't lying when you said you knew how to ride a bike.
Biker
I bet that's not the only thing he knows how to ride.
The biker says this, looking at JJ. A few of the guys snicker. JJ's eyes grow wide and she walks up to the man.
JJ
Look here puta, I'll cut your damn throat out if you ever talk about me like that again.
The biker chuckles but his eyes grow wide and he looks down to see a knife pressed to his groin. JJ smiles sweetly at him before putting her knife away. Suddenly, Adrian's ringer on his cell phone goes off. He pulls it out and curses under his breath as he answers it.
Adrian
Yo, Diagur. What's up, vato? Yeah I left Miguel's ass back at my place. I wasn't taking him out on one of those fucking ricers. You know how much of a bitch he looks riding one of those? Oh yeah, here let me pass the phone around and you can ask which one of the guys wants another guy riding bitch.
The bikers laugh and one of them spews his drink everywhere that he had apparently brought with him and started drinking from.
Adrian
Yeah, that's not how bikers do. You let me handle the bikers, I'll let you handle the people riding in limos. Yeah, ok. Later, hermano.
Adrian hangs up the phone and walks back over to his bike. He reaches into a bag strapped to the bike and pulls out a couple of baseball bats. He turns to Hector and tosses one of the bats to him. Hector looks down at the bat and then back at Adrian curiously. Phobeya walks over and slaps Hector on the back of the shoulder as he stands beside him, a lead pipe on his shoulder.
Phobeya
You think we were on some kind of charity run here, Hector? We're not some biker club who raises money for kids.
JJ
What are we out here for, Phobeya?
Phobeya turns to JJ.
Phobeya
Mr. Miyagi hasn't been paying protection money to us lately.
JJ looks around curiously.
JJ
Protection from what? Isn't that a little cliche?
Phobeya grins.
Phobeya
He isn't into coke or anything like that so we wanted a reason to get money from him. It was either he buy drugs from us for significantly more or he pay us to not come break his wallet and his back.
Adrian turns and starts walking across the street towards a store called China China. It's a store with plates and glass everywhere. Some of the bikers, some of who are carrying weapons, are looking at the china from the street as if they're a kid heading into a candy store with a pocket full of quarters.
Biker
China China? What the hell. Can we break this guy's legs simply for the name of the store and THEN handle business?
Adrian
No one breaks nothing until I say to.
The MS-13 members reach the door and Adrian opens the door and walks in. A petite Chinese woman walks up quietly as the men walk into the store.
Woman
What do you think you're doing?!
Adrian turns to the woman.
Adrian
We're here to see Mr. Miyagi.
Woman
I don't know who that is and you're not going anywhere.
Adrian
Oh yeah? Why not and who is going to stop us?
Woman
I will. I spent all of weekend cleaning up carpet last time you were here. You are going to take off your shoes just like everyone else who enters our store.
The woman stands defiantly in front of the bikers, crossing her arms. Hector looks down to his right to see a couple of pairs of shoes on a mat. Adrian snickers and palms the woman's cranium and shoves her out of the way, knocking her to the floor as he walks across the store, followed by Hector, Phobeya, and JJ. A small man comes out from the back at the sound of the commotion. His eyes grow wide as he sees them and he fumbles behind the desk for something as he speaks.
Man
You go away bad men! We no know you!
The man pulls out a pistol from behind the desk but Adrian is already within arms length and brings the bat down upon the Chinese man's gun arm. A cracking down is heard as the man drops the gun and holds his arm, howling in pain. The woman comes running down another aisle.
Woman
You terrible brown men, you go away!
Phobeya goes to hit the woman but Adrian grabs his arm and shakes his head.
Adrian
Look Mr. Chan, we told you if you stopped paying, we'd come in and take it out on your store.
The man still howls in pain but he is able to compose himself enough to answer Adrian.
Man
We no have money. Economy bad, bad for us, too.
From the front of the store, one of the bikers pipes in.
Biker
What? You can't call Jackie for some money?
Mr. Chan looks towards the biker.
Mr. Chan
Who Jackie?
The bikers start laughing at the front of the store. Suddenly, one of the china plates falls to the floor and breaks. Adrian looks towards the bikers.
Adrian
HEY! I said wait!
Phobeya looks at Mrs. Chan.
Phobeya
If you've got no money, you need to be turning this bitch out on the street corner doing the whole "wax on, wax off" bit to guys on the street. I wouldn't mind waxing this bitch.
Phobeya makes a rude gesture at the woman as the bikers at the front of the store roar with laughter.
Mr. Chan
We no have money. Mrs. Chan no whore like your mother either. So you go away, no come back.
Phobeya lunges forward to strangle the man for badmouthing his mother but Hector and Adrian hold him back. Adrian turns to Hector.
Adrian
That's enough, Hector teach him what it means to mess with Mara Salvatrucha.
Hector looks at JJ who nods at him. Hector walks over to one of the aisles on the sides. He grabs a glass cup and drops it to the ground, causing it to shatter glass everywhere. Adrian gives him a look.
Adrian
Hector, what was that?
Hector shrugs and grabs a plate. He hurls it against the walll. Cheers come from the bikers up front. Adrian facepalms and then looks at Hector again.
Adrian
Hector, what the hell are you doing? We're not here to bother them, we're here to teach them a lesson.
Hector looks visibly annoyed and walks over to the middle of the row. He can be heard grunting and straining. A couple of plates and cups fall off his shelf and Adrian starts to say something else when Hector yells out. Suddenly, the entire shelf tips over and slams into the next row, throwing all the plates, cups and other china off the shelves, shattering on the floor. The impact causes the second row to tip into the third one, which creates a domino effect until it reaches the other side of the store.
Everyone's jaws drop as the last plates and cups drop to the ground. Hector has basically demolished the entire store. The Chinese woman faints onto some glass. One of the bikers up front throws down his lead pipe.
Biker
Well FUCK, Hector. You destroyed all of it.
The biker stands there for a second and then picks his lead pipe up and turns and breaks one of the glass doors at the entrance. He then walks out of the store followed by the other bikers. Phobeya starts laughing loudly and gestures for JJ and Hector to climb over the shelves as they make their way to the front of the store. Adrian turns to Mr. Chan.
Adrian
Consider us even.
Mr. Chan
EVEN!?!? You destroy my life! You destroy all my money!
Mr. Chan continues ranting and raving at Adrian as he climbs over the shelves and goes out of the door. The video cuts out momentarily.
:::THAT NIGHT:::
The video cuts back into the poolside area of Diagur's hacienda. Gathered around one of the tables are the bikers from the china shop, some other bikers, and other non-biker gang members of MS-13. Also present at the table are Hector, JJ, and both Adrian and Phobeya. The only empty seat is that of Diagur.

JJ
So what did Diagur have to say about what Hector did?
Adrian smiles.
Adrian
He thought it was the funniest thing he's ever heard. He wishes he could have been there. He wants Hector to help out more, but we need to supervise him more is what Diagur said.
Everyone starts laughing again as Hector grins sheepishly. Suddenly from around the corner come a couple of large Hispanic men dragging a white man who is dressed up. It's Hank Brown. Everyone laughs at Hank as he's pulled over to the table.
JJ
HANK!
The two bodyguards stop and look up at JJ curiously.
Bodyguard
You know this gringo, JJ?
JJ
Yeah, let that white boy go. He's here for me and Hector.
Hank pulls away from the two men and stares back at them defiantly.
Hank Brown
I TOLD YOU!
One of the bodyguards jumps at Hank. He screams and runs up to JJ. Everyone at the table roars with laughter at Hank's scream. Hank finally composes himself and looks at JJ and Hector.
Hank Brown
Well, hey JJ and Hector. How has your day been?
One of the bikers pipes in.
Biker
An earth shattering experience.
Everyone except for Hank laughs. One of the bikers turns to another.
Biker
Doesn't he mean china shattering?
A few people groan and punch the guy for the lame joke. He shrugs and grins sheepishly as Hank turns to Hector with a confused look on his face.
Hank Brown
I'm kinda suprised that you invited me here to one of the homes of MS-13, Hector.
JJ
Yeah, this is Hector's home now. Not literally his home, but he stays here a lot now. He's a member of the family.
A couple of gang members cheer and reach over, patting Hector on the back and shoulders. Hank turns and looks at Adrian and Phobeya who are sitting beside each other.
Hank Brown
Oh, Adrian and Phobeya, it's nice to see you two here. It was a pleasure meeting you two the other night...despite what happened to Tank Reaper last week.
Phobeya grins.
Phobeya
How is Tank Reaper doing this week?
Hank Brown
Well they still don't know as of this time. He's out of action for a while is all I know. This week definitely. You guys did a number on him. He was completely laid out and lost a lot of blood.
Adrian
Well, that's what he gets for getting in the way of Hector Rodriguez and D-Day. They're the future WCF tag team champions. They're going to be wrestling at the PPV next week for the tag team titles and MS-13 will make sure of that.
Hank Brown
Well, you know who is in the way of them this week right? Torture and Creeping Death.
Phobeya scoffs.
Phobeya
So? You think we care who gets in the way? Shit...Reaper...Creeping...Death...Torture..Slaughter. All these fucking people with nouns and verbs as their ring names. You think it matters to us?
Hank smiles in disbelief.
Hank Brown
Do you not know who Torture and Creeping Death are in WCF?
Phobeya
No. Should I?
JJ sighs.
JJ
Forgive them, Hank. They don't watch wrestling as much as some of the others here do. Adrian does this because Diagur put him in charge of helping Hector and Phobeya does it so he can have someone with big muscles help with his business issues. Both Hector and myself are very aware of these two men. They've been with WCF for years. We've done our homework. Creeping Death has won the world title multiple times, no he's worn most of the belts in WCF. Torture himself is a multiple time world champion. He held the world title for almost the entire year last year.
This is a huge match for Hector Rodriguez and D-Day. We've spoken to D-Day and he agrees with that. This isn't like their match a couple of weeks ago against the former tag team champions where they walked into the match and had one guy not even show up. The challenge that the two men had last week against Tank Reaper and Ace Slaughter is nothing compared to the challenge before them this week. Torture and Creeping Death got this far in the tournament by defeating Jay Price and Greenfever last week, two men who hold wins over Hector. Hector wasn't able to pin them during his encounters with them, but Torture and Creeping Death were successful in their match.
Hank Brown
Does knowing that make Hector think he might lose?
JJ
No. Those losses to Jay Price were questionable in the first place and both the losses to Jay and Greenfever...those were in the past. Those were last year. That was then...this is now. Hector is on a roll this year. He is on an unstoppable roll. A tag team match against two former world champions. A tag team match against two of the top stars in WCF will not stop that roll he's on. Hector and D-Day both knew that when they stepped into the ring for their first tournament match that eventually they would likely have to face top tag teams here in WCF on their way to the tag team titles match next week.
Hank Brown
You know that Seth Lerch has known these men for years. He has been associated with them both. The hatred between Seth Lerch and Hector Rodriguez isn't something that people don't know about. Everyone that follows WCF is very familiar with Hector's issues with Seth since he stepped into WCF. Word even has it that Seth wasn't too happy with Adrian and Phobeya's actions in the tag team match last week. He wanted a fair tournament for the tag team titles.
Adrian
Seth Lerch? Isn't that the guy that runs the company?
Hank Brown nods.
Adrian
You think me and Phobeya give a shit what that gringo thinks? Fuck him and his tournament. We'll do whatever we want in WCF. I'd love to see him try and stop us. People constantly underestimate MS-13. They act like we're some joke. Why don't you ask the critics some questions for me...if we're a joke, why is Hector the US champion? If we're a joke, then how is it that Tank Reaper was lying in a pool of his own blood with a chain wrapped around his thick neck? If we're a joke, then why are Hector and D-Day in the semi-finals of the tag team tournament? Seth doesn't like Hector? Fine. I hope Seth Lerch sticks his nose in our business. I'll personally take him out myself.
JJ
To answer your question, Hank, yes we're aware that both Torture and Creeping Death are known associates of Seth. Like Adrian said, we're prepared. Even though you didn't mention it, I'm sure that Seth Lerch isn't too happy that Hector is the United States champion and now he's on the verge of becoming a double champion with D-Day. Speaking of D-Day, people keep starting rumors that Hector and D-Day aren't on the same page. Those rumors have been squashed by myself and Hector when we met with D-Day earlier in the week. Hector and MS-13 have D-Day's back as long as he pulls his weight in these matches. We know that D-Day has the problem with his arm right now, but even with the broken arm, he's still pulling more than the weight he's expected to. People can keep starting rumors in WCF all they want, but D-Day and Hector Rodriguez are on the same page. They will remain that way this week and then next week at the pay-per-view.
Hank Brown
The pay-per-view? So are you confident that Hector and D-Day can pull out a win this week? Even with D-Day's arm?
JJ
Yes, we are still confident. D-Day's arm didn't affect us last week, especially since Adrian and Phobeya disposed of Tank Reaper near the end of the match. They defeated the largest man in wrestling today and the former United States champion. Despite that, two former world champions is a step up in a way. I mean let's look back. The first match was against the former tag team champions, The New Confederacy. One of them is a former world champion. Then Hector and D-Day defeat a team with the former US champion. Now they're against two former world champions. Hector and D-Day have been going up against some of the top superstars of the company and coming out on top. Now it seems that they have reached the top. Their battle now has gone from climbing the ladder of WCF to playing a king of the hill game. Hector and D-Day are reaching the pinnacle and are ready to start tossing people off the top.
Hector himself is the United States champion. In singles action, he's one step away from the top. All he has to do is get a shot at the world champion to be at the top of the mountain. Hector has battled and clawed his way to the top of WCF and isn't about to be knocked off by Torture and Creeping Death. This match will be huge. The United States champion teaming with the Television Champion to take on the pairing of Torture and Creeping Death. The main event. This match here could very well overshadow the matches at the pay-per-view itself. Compared to this match, the finals of the tag team title tournament could very well be nothing compared to this match. Ladykillers versus Torture and Creeping Death? Amazing match, match of the year quality. Let's be honest here though. It's not just Hector and D-Day versus Torture and Creeping Death. Adrian and Phobeya's interference last week wasn't a one-time thing. They will be involved again this week.
Hank Brown
For what reason? Is MS-13 not confident in the ability of both Hector and D-Day to get the job done?
JJ laughs.
JJ
Hank, Hank, Hank. It's already been said before that Diagur and Mara Salvatrucha are more than confident in the ability of Hector and D-Day, but what's the fun in MS-13 sitting back and watching? Besides, you just said yourself that Seth is a known associate of both of Hector and D-Day's opponents. MS-13 will take no chances. Just like last week, MS-13 will make sure that Hector and D-Day win...even if they have to injure another WCF superstar.
Hank Brown
Yeah, well Torture and Creeping Death also saw the match last week. They will likely be prepared for Adrian and Phobeya's interference. They're both experienced in battling multiple opponents, even those not scheduled for their matches.
Phobeya
Who the hell do you think we are? You think we don't know this either. We'll do whatever it takes. They can't be watching their own backs all the time. They also can't be watching each other's back all the time either.
Hank Brown
Something that hasn't been brought up is the fact that Hector and Torture will finally be in the ring together, wrestling against each other.
Hector grins and shakes his head, smiling.
JJ
Yeah, I remember the days of the Team of Torture when Hector was battling against Torture's friends. I also remember the days of Hector saying he was gunning for Torture and would one day be in the ring with him. You're right, Hank. Looks like that day has finally come. Hector has been waiting for this opportunity for a while. Depending on how they do in the match, this right here could be the match that determines where Hector and D-Day belong in the company. They have two things to prove: that they deserve a shot at the tag team titles and that they are main event level competitors. This isn't Hector's first time wrestling in a main event on WCF television, but it has been a while since he last did so.
This week on Slam, it will be a battle for the ages. This week on Slam Hector and D-Day will enter the ring against Torture and Creeping Death. When the smoke clears, they will be standing in the ring victorious against two of their biggest opponents to date. Torture, Creeping Death. When you're left lying in the ring bloody and broken like Tank Reaper...don't take it personally. You were just in the way of MS-13 taking over WCF. The chaos and mayhem caused by the Dark Side or the calculated dominance of the Team of Torture will be nothing compared to the terrible hold that Mara Salvatrucha will have upon Wrestling Championship Federation. It begins when two of its biggest superstars fall this week on Slam...
The video slowly cuts out.
