Is this the best you got?

Wednesday, 02-08-2012 on the road to Pennsylvania

He switched back and forth from watching the road to watching Onnica in the passenger seat. She was on the phone, with WCF Talent she mouthed, so he knew that it was important. They were on the way to WCF Arena in Reading, Pennsylvania for the next slam card. He wasn't sure in what capacity he would be performing in but he knew he had to be there, so they packed up and made their way from Middleville to Reading. She did not say much, every once and a while an MmmHmm or ok would escape her but for the most part she just seemed to be listening. After a few minutes she thanked who ever it was and hung up.

(Onnica) Ok, you are going to be on the card on the twelfth. It is an odd debut but as we have seen, WCF is not any ordinary Federation.

"What do you mean odd?"

(Onnica) "They are placing you in a fatal four-way with three other rookies. They wanna see who has the balls apparently, so they are starting you out with a bang."

"I see. Ok, see what info you can on the other three so we can start to do some "homework" on them. Did they say anything else?"

(Onnica) "Yes, when we get there and get settled in you will record a shoot for the match. They want you to say a few words to get your character hyped a little for the match."

"Yeah, I figured as much. Ok sounds good. looks like were about to hit the big time eh?

(Onnica) "Yep so it would seem. We will see what direction they decide to go with you though. We have seen it before, big guys like you come in, they allow you to flash in the pan but than after a few weeks or months they put you on the jobber shelf."

Kendrik looked to her, he knew her concern could potentially hold water but right now he needed her to be positive.

"I think it will be good, lets give it a chance and see what happens."

Thursday, 02-09-2012. Reading, Pennsylvania Marriott

"I spent my youth playing with dolls and watching Rainbow Bright. I spent my early teens having slumber parties and reading. So when I chose the path I am now going on, you can imagine my parents surprise ( I say surprise, but I mean disdain). They were fans of Kendrik however, so that cushioned the blow a little bit. They knew this was his design though, so that's why it was only a little bit. I met him in high school, he was a big boy then as well, but well put together from working on his fathers farm. When I saw him, I needed him. Being I was cheerleader captain, I new I could get him and did. We spent tons of time together. He would come and watch me cheer, and I would go and watch him wrestle. We were inseparable. We both got accepted to the same College. Him on a Athletic Scholarship and I on an academic. 4 years later, we finished and I was set to begin my career. Kendrik however was not sure what direction to take. He majored in Criminal Justice, as he wanted to become a FBI agent, and with a minor in Psychology he very well could have done it. He was a decorated wrestler though, so naturally people started to notice him. Thats where the idea of his childhood dream becoming a reality started. A couple contacts later and he was well on his way. He needed to go to Professional Wrestling school to learn the ins and outs of Pro Wrestling however. He wanted me to be a part of his life so naturally he asked me to do it too. At first I was reluctant. I had my business degree and wanted to get started in my own field, but after some coaxing, I decided to put my career on hold to join him. Six months later, here we are, ready for the big time."

His hands on her shoulder snapped Onnica back to reality. She placed a hand on his as she looked out of the window of the room they were staying in at the Courtyard Marriott in Reading. He had gone down to exercise and she stayed back to have a little quiet time to go over the contracts and financial stuff.

"Feel better?"

(Kendrik Masters) "Absolutely. They have very nice, state of the art equipment. Hows everything up here?"

"Good, I think I have everything signed that needs to be, and our expenses done for the month. I made some phone calls to get some info on who you would be wrestling, but they did not offer up much. The stuff is in a pile over on the table."

(Kendrik Masters) "Excellent job boss, I think I am gonna hit the shower and we can grab something to eat."

"Yes, and hurry. We are having dinner with one of the promoters tonight to go over details."

"A hug and a kiss later, Kendrik is off showering. I am left to wonder if this was the right move? Hopefully my decision will be the right one. Hopefully Kendrik will get the fame and notoriety he has gotten in the past, so he can be successful at this."

02-11-2012, Reading, Pennsylvania at the WCF Arena.

Kendrik makes his way into the arena closely followed by Onnica. He makes his way to the back where members of the road crew are setting up backstage equipment there are a few management personnel but not many. Eventually he finds who he came to see, Hank Brown. He stops short as Hank waves him down.

(Hank Brown) "Kendrik, a few minutes of your time if you could?"

No words as Kendrik stands next to the man. Onnica takes a spot behind the camera man.

(Hank Brown) "Let me be the first to welcome you to the WCF. Tell me, what are your thoughts and first impressions as you get started here with your career."

"Everything seems good so far. I am not much of one to pour out thoughts and not really one to excite of such things. I have a job to do, I am here to do it."

(Hank Brown) "I see, a man of few words. Ok, well it has been announced that in your first match here in the WCF will be a fatal four way against 3 other newcomers to the federation. Kira Sakazaki, KING and Chris Anderson are the opponents. Do you have any thoughts on this match?"

"It doesn't matter who the hell you put in the ring with me. I am here for one reason and that is to become the WCF champion. I am here to show the world what happens when you get in the way of the Juggernaut. Opponent after opponent is going to fall when they are run over by this Irresistible Force."

(Hank Brown) "Indeed there is talk of your road to get here. They talk of your days of collegiate wrestling and wrestling in high school. Do you think that knowledge and ability will be put to the test here?"

"What is in the past is just that. I will use my size, my strength (Kendrik pauses as he flexes his biceps) and my intelligence to destroy anything that gets in my way. That way there will be no excuses, just aftermath. The aftermath of the path of destruction I am going to carve through this federation. And then will begin the future, the future of Kendrik Masters..........WCF Champion."

[Onnica Synn]

"He was doing it, he sounded just like the wrestlers my brother watched on TV when we were kids. I just had to smile at him when he said the things he did. He was stoic, and held his fierce tone without cracking at my smile. The interview was going great until the gears shifted and without warning Hank was talking to me."

(Hank Brown) "Onnica Synn is Kendrik Master's Manager." (Camera turns to Onnica) "Tell me Onnica, have you any thoughts on Kendrik's match?"

"I had to think fast, I was on the spot and had to keep his flow going. I walked over and stood beside him, and looked over the frames of my costume glasses that sealed the whole sexy business woman look I was going for."

"Hank, it doesn't matter what I think. It doesn't matter that I can guarantee that everything Kendrik just said is going to happen. What matters is what will happen when this man match is over and he is the one left standing with his hand raised as the victor. But that will just be the beginning. With me at his side, I will ensure that he strong arms his way to the top, and becomes the WCF Champion."

"I knew enough, that for the effect of the shoot, I would have to walk away after finishing the powerful statement. So I brushed him as I walked away, and he took the hint walking away from camera, leaving Hank behind watching us walk away."

Sunday, 02-12-2012. Reading, Pennsylvania. WCF arena

Kendrik makes his way across the parking lot, and heads into the arena through the service entrance. He heads through the loading area and indoor parking area and enters the into the backstage area. Several of the other wrestlers are there already talking to promoters, eating, stretching among other things. Kendrik says nothing and makes his way into the lockers designated for men. He finds a spot in the corner and sets his gym bag on the floor. He than takes a seat and closes his eyes. For several minutes he just pauses and sits in silence, mentally prepping for his match. After several minutes he gets up and gets into his ring attire, switching a suit for a pair of jeans, combat boots, and a plain black loose t-shirt. He puts on his Oakleys and rests them on his forehead, and tucks his gloves into his pocket. Onnica is waiting for him when he exits the locker room and together they make their way over to the large buffet table loaded with food. They sit down and have a short meal before meeting with the VP of Talent and the promoters.

(Onnica Synn) "This is all kind of surreal. I can't believe this is happening."

"I know, I am trying to keep calm myself. I meditated for a short time so I could calm myself and be focused for the match."

(Onnica Synn) "Excellent, you did it! You made it. Now lets see if we can get you to the big time."

[Onnica Synn]

Onnica sits behind and off to the side of the management staff as they sit at the table at the end of the exit. The folding chair is hard and uncomfortable, but the physical discomfort fades away as Kendrik's match begins. The monitor fills her vision and she leans forward eagerly.

Her breath catches in her throat when he grapples with the first opponent. He was finally living out his dream, but she knew there was a real chance that he could be injured. As his manager, she's proud that he hits the moves that he's supposed to. As his fiancee, she's angered that anyone would lay their hands on him. Her biggest surprise as both was that Kira was able to do anything besides get thrown out into the crowd by men twice his size.

She leans forward a little more when Kendrik's back hits the mat, twisting her water bottle back and forth. Onnica nearly squeals and a smiles spreads across her face as her man nearly gets a pin fall. She growls softly under her breath as one of the other men kicks him away. These had always been some of her least favorite matches. She much preferred one on one or tag team.

Onnica smacks a clenched, manicured fist against her knee as Kendrik picked up the diminutive wrestler and readies him for a choke slam. When the move gets blocked, she jumps up.

"No!"

Others in the room give her odd looks and she smiles apologetically as she sinks back down into her chair. Moments later, she's back on her feet, silent this time, as Kendrik falls out of the ring. More than anything, she wants to run out to the ring to see if he's ok, but she doesn't. The corners of her mouth fall as the bell rings and she sees him pulling himself to his feet. She wishes she didn't have to see that look on his face.

[Kendrik "Juggernaut" Masters]

I looked up groggily and over the ring apron just in time to see Kira pin Chris Anderson. Pulling myself up the rest of the way, "What complete and utter bullshit," are the only thoughts that come to mind as the sound of the bell rings through my head. The crowd was cheering him on, which made it that much worse. I didn't stop and just continued up the ramp to the back. When I pulled back the curtain and entered the back area, Onnica was waiting there for me. I met her with a kiss and said: "Come on, lets get out of here." Together we made our way back to the locker area, where one of the locker doors had the misfortune of meeting my fist. Metal buckled and nuts and bolts flew from hinges as I pulled back a bloody fist. "Sawed off, fucking little monkey bastard."

(Onnica Synn) "Easy baby, I know this sucks, but you can't go and injure yourself. You have a contract to uphold and you can't get out for sometime. Were just going to have to deal with what happens."

"She was right, I thought as I sat down. I knew in the back of my mind that I would have to take a fall every once and a while. It was part of being new. But this way, to another new guy a third of my size not only really bothered me, but didn't make sense. I didn't say anything else. I just got my shirt on, grabbed the rest of my stuff, and we took off. As we were leaving I saw Hank coming presumably to catch me for an interview. We made haste out of the building and didn't even stay for the rest of the show."
