Pull Out The Arrows That Poison Your Mind (1 of 2)

[Segment 1 – Dat Interview, Do]

Hello to everyone in the WCF Galaxy! My name is Mathew Shaw, new junior staff here at WCF.com!

His name, Colin Marshall. Whether you love or hate him; we all know him. Since his debut on Sunday Night Slam against Terry Roberts ended in an earned victory, the once rising superstar has had his share of ups and downs. After his latest defeat at the hands Diablo Calzone on the 6/15/14 edition of Slam, we were able to catch up with Colin for this WCF.com exclusive. We flew out to his hometown of McKinney, Texas where we met him after one of his rigorous training sessions with his mysterious trainer, Sykes. He looks beaten and bruised, sporting a black eye most likely as a result of Diablo Calzone's attack with a pair of brass knuckles, but is otherwise in good spirits as he sits down to talk with us.

WCF.com: Hey Colin! It's so nice to finally be able to sit down with you!

Colin Marshall: Yeah, for sure!

WCF.com: Well, let's not waste any time...

Colin Marshall: Ah, the nitty gritty huh? Well, what do you want to know?

WCF.com: You just hit your two month milestone as a member of the WCF roster. I'm sure you imagine your career starting off with more of a bang but you've stuck around while others have faltered and fell, proving your stripes to more established members of the roster. What has it been like being Colin Marshall these past couple of months?

Colin Marshall: It's been difficult that's for sure. My dreams for WCF are much, much bigger than anything I've achieved yet and that has been physically and emotionally tasking. I have the boyhood dream. I want to be WCF Heavyweight Champion and I will settle for nothing less. I want to earn it. I want to work hard everyday, prove to everyone and myself that I have what it takes. It's just taking me a little longer to hit my stride that I thought it would.

WCF.com: After you loss to Diablo, you must be feeling all sorts of mixed emotions. Buddy Roman aided Diablo Calzone with a pair of brass knuckles and soured what could have potentially been a match of the week. What are your thoughts moving forward on this?

Colin Marshall: It’s like you said, that match against Diablo and I was filled with highlight reel worthy footage and he spoiled it with his greed. I think he needs to wrap his head around the fact that he’s cheating to win. Once he realizes this, he will get what he fully deserves. The universe always has a way of bringing things back to you ten fold.

WCF.com: Karma, right?

Colin Marshall: I guess. Anyways, I’m not really upset about it. I’ll just get up off the ground again and move on. Can’t be prisoners to our own regret, right?

WCF.com: Speaking of moving on, your encounters with Marina Valdivia have caused you to change the way you view how things should be in the WCF, even going as far as adopting her mantra, #NoFearNoNegativity. Now you have a match against Sequitus with you teaming alongside Stacy Jones and Marina Valdiva, collectively known as Trinity. What are you thoughts on this match and teaming with Trinity?

Colin Marshall: Marina Valdivia helped open my eyes. When I got signed, I truly believed that Colin Marshall’s shit didn’t stink…but it does, bad. When she defeated me in our second match, it was like a “ain’t that a kick in the head?” I couldn’t help but show her the respect that she truly deserves. But now I get to team with her and the former People’s Champion Stacy Jones?! That’s badass! I can’t wait to step in that ring with them on the opposite side of that Trinity ass beating.

WCF.com: Last week, you also faced Caliban, the “Unspoken” leader of Sequitus for his Internet Championship. You both went to the limit and the match ended in a double count-out. Since Caliban was champion going in, he retained. Now you have a chance at retribution in this six man tag match.

Colin Marshall: It’s not about retribution anymore. I could care less about “getting my hands” on Caliban…I mean, there’s no doubt that I’m going to stomp his punk ass in to the mat on Sunday but not for the reasons I’m sure he will concoct. I mean, the deaf are blessed when Caaaaaaaaliban cuts a promo. The one thing that guy was granted was a loud mouth and that’s barely a gift. More like we’re all cursed. Caliban pulls the strings in Sequitus, being the young lion he is. He may have started out with good intentions but he let greed inside and once you turn to that, you push virtue aside. Caliban knows all of his followers have a price. He knows what they desire and he has the silver tongue and golden lips to persuade. He claims to stand up for those stuck at the bottom of the barrel…but after being his target for the weeks prior to Wednesday Night, he showed me HIS true colors. Caliban is a beast, using his followers as shields. Once the beast shows his teeth, he will feast on the weak.

WCF.com: Whoa…

Colin Marshall: And still he and his friends raise their cups and drink to Sequitus. Jordan Ciserano and “The Vine” Brent Alpine are just two of the unlucky men to have fallen victim to Caliban’s wicked ways. I faced Jordan Ciserano in TWO matches, one for Contendership of the People’s Championship and then once again for the People’s Championship. Ciserano has a lot of potential…but he hates me for some odd reason. Heh, never really did anything to the guy, though. I guess this is the kind of poison Caliban uses…poisoning of the mind. Go ahead, take the apple? I thought Arabella Montgomery was our resident witch? I wonder if she was in Hufflepuff…Anyways, I digress. Ciserano and Alpine will just have to learn the hard way that flying the Sequitus flag is the wrong move. Alpine should have stayed with Percy Micro…at least his career was aspiring then.

WCF.com: Some strong words to those guys in Sequitus. After your match this week, what’s next for Colin Marshall?

Colin Marshall: My vision for myself will unfold shortly. Its taken time and hard work. I will continue to push myself and become better than everyone on this roster. I can’t rest until I’m the one strapping the WCF Heavyweight Championship around my waist. I know what I want and I have the skills to obtain it. Colin Marshall is THE REAL DEAL!

[Segment 2 – The Motions]

It was a few days after my match with Diablo and my interview with WCF.com. I was still feeling like a ton of bricks fell on top of me after my training session with Sykes. Rabuele had finally caught up to me in China…and he was not too pleased with me shirking him and his friends. They had already invested too much money in to me to let me disappear like that. He had Sykes go a little harder on me this time. Luckily, Sykes left my already injured shoulder, courtesy of Calzone, alone. Out of pity? I don’t know. I think he knew but they just couldn’t have me out of commission for any of my matches.

I lay in my bed, my body aching from head to toe. My phone buzzed on my bedside table. I lashed my hand towards the insufferable vibrating, managing to knock everything off of my bedside table. I cursed out loud and flipped myself over to my bruised side. My phone was luckily right next to the bed and I swiped it off the ground. I unlocked it and a text appeared on its screen.

Patrick McCoy: Aye mang! If you’re not cuttin another TMNT promo you wanna chill?

An hour later, Patrick and I were driving out to find something to do. Unfortunately, there wasn’t much in Texas that we hadn’t already done having been around the state on the Independent Circuit. Like always, we just ended up driving around and talking, while Patrick toked on his pipe.

Patrick McCoy: I feel like we haven’t hung out in ages. I mean, I know I’ve been all around the fucking world with you…but you’re always off filming your promos and doing shit with Rabuele and getting your ass kicked by Sykes.

Colin Marshall: I know man…I’m sorry. It’s a lot of work being in the WCF…you’ll find out some day. You’ll be cutting promos and seeing all sorts of fucking crazy people.

Patrick McCoy: We’re not cutting a promo right now, are we?

He looks around the car suspiciously and laughs it off. We continue our conversation.

Patrick McCoy: So bro…you have your rematch against Calibad this week and his Sequitus flunkies. This will probably be the first time I don’t change the channel for a Sequitus match.

Colin Marshall: Yeah man. I’m going to kill Caliban and Sequitus! Fucking dicks in the dirt and everything. Look, Caliban, Jordan Ciserano, and Brent Alpine. These guys all have one thing in common and it’s that they’re all going to taste my boot this weekend. I’m going to split their domes and drink from their skulls. They’ll have to power wash the mat to wipe away the blood stains I’m going to leave for the clean up crew.

Patrick McCoy: Whoa, man. I’ve never heard you talk like that.

Colin Marshall: It’s because I’m sick and tired of going through the motions! Show up this week, get killed by Marina. Show up this week, get killed by Diablo Calzone. I’m fucking tired of it! I’m meant for bigger and better things damn it! I’m going to show it this week when I team up with Trinity to destroy Caliban and Co.

Patrick McCoy: Trinity…Stacy Jones and Marina Valdivia? You’re teaming with them this week?

Colin Marshall: Shit yeah! Sequitus is going to be facing the real up and comers this week. They think they lead the war machine that goes through WCF…but they couldn’t be more wrong. This week, Trinity and Colin Marshall step up to that plate. The WCF marches to the beat of a new drum now and it goes “HASHTAG NO FEAR NO NEGATIVETY” bitch! While Sequitus is struggling to get themselves out of a one year rut, our careers are just beginning! We all step in to that ring on Sunday night, but only one team will be able to walk away. It will be myself and Trinity. We will erase Sequitus if we have to. This week, there will be no doubt in sight that we are the FUTURE of the WCF!

Patrick McCoy: I thought you said we weren’t cutting a promo?

Colin Marshall: I’m not dick, it’s the shoot!

Patrick McCoy: Oh?

Colin Marshall: Speaking of shoot…the words “Pull The Trigger” keep going through my mind. Caliban, Ciserano, Alpine….I will pull the trigger this weekend. We all talk about stepping stones and open doors…but I’m just going to plow right through you mother fuckers! I’m done being somebody’s doormat. I’ll be the welcome wagon that smashes in to and capsizes the Sequitus ship! You’ll be halfway underwater before you realize you were all sailing under the wrong flag! We will display our dominance and come out on top. I know it sounds like I’m repeating myself, but I know how deaf you all are to the truth. I guess I’ll just have to pound it in to you.
