PART 1 - BE GONE T.H.O.T.
Tuesday, 22 January
11:00 am
The Courtroom
We find Draven and McCarty in the courtroom with Judge Judy, in what appears to be the final time
Judy: Well well well... Look at you two!
John and Draven then turn their heads to give a scowl-ish look. Basically, it wasn't nice.
Judy: The anklets surely did a treat! Two straight wins and tag champions for the foreseeable future! That's great news!
John: Can you just take these stupid things off?
Judy: Yeah, yeah. Just wait. I'm just trying to find the key for the thots.
John: Thots?
Judy: Yeah, The Habiliment of Terror! T.H.O.T.!
John: Ohhhhhhhhh. Wasn't really the best choice of names, was it?
Judy: Shut up.
John: Yes, ma'am.
Judy: Uh-uh. Nonononononono. When I say shut up, you DON'T speak. We've been through this for the third time now.
John: ...
Judy: Thank you. Anyways, two convincing victories, the first one in the biggest event in the WCF, the second making you tag champs for a while! This is just great! Finally, you two have learnt teamwork, and you are certainly a force to be reckoned with. So, here's a little something to help you with this tag league. I hear you've got a big match first up! So, let's remove these stupid anklets!
Judy then called over that awesome bailiff guy. Can't remember his name.
Judy: Byrd...
Byrd! That's his name!
Judy: ...remove the T.H.O.T.s!
Matt chuckles the slightest bit
Judy: Shut up, Mr. Draven!
Matt: ...
Judy: Ah, you must be the smart one in this group.
Judy glares at John while Byrd removes The Habiliments of Terror from both members' right ankle.
Judy: They're off?
Byrd: They're off.
Judy: Cool. Dismissed!
Judy bangs the gavel, thankfully, for the last time.
PART 2 - I'VE GOT GOOD NEWS!!!
Wednesday, 23 January
8:32 pm
A bar in South Dakota
We see the Bartender all alone, polishing some glasses, at a bar in South Dakota, the 2nd most useless state behind North Dakota. That is, until the phone rings. Of course, because it's his job, the Bartender picks it up
Bartender: Hello, this is a bar in South Dakota, how may I help you?
John <over phone>: Heyyyyy, how goes it?
Bartender: Oh. Hey.
Just assume John is over the phone from now til the end of the chapter
John: Are you busy now? I can talk to you later if you want.
Bartender: No no, it's okay. We usually don't get our first wave of customers until 10, so we have a while.
John: Cool Cewl Kewl.
Bartender: I hear you're tag champion.
John: Yeah, first championship in WCF. So that's cool. It's a shame it's gone now! But there's a tag league so I'm gonna try and win that. But I'm pretty much the best I've ever been right now.
Bartender: That's really good to hear, y'know.
John: Ooh, speaking of good news, I've got some more. I'm about to rebuild the House of Blues!
The Bartender stood still for a while, but eventually a word spilt from his mouth.
Bartender: ...and?
John: Well, you can get your job back and move back to New Orleans!
The Bartender once again stood still for a moment.
Bartender: No, John. I'm settled here in South Dakota. It's better by far here, Louisiana was such an ugly place. Crime-ridden, very little opportunities, and their NBA team is literally called the Pelicans.
John: ...but I'm lonely down here.
Bartender: Get a new friend. I'm staying in South Dakota and I'm not gonna change my mind.
The Bartender quickly hangs up and starts polishing glasses again.
After all that, John thought to himself, he did have a new friend. But he always passed him off as a mere acquaintance.
Oh, Bert. What had he'd done?
PART 3 - A NOT-SO INTERVIEW
Friday, 25 January
1:27 pm
WCF HQ: New Orleans
We find John and Hank Brown standing in the interview of the WCF New Orleans department.
Hank Brown: Welcome to this WCF Network Exclusive, an interview with 'Jazzy' John McCarty. How are you today John?
John: Not bad, yourself?
Hank: I'm good thank you. So you're fresh off your win against Luiz and Lockhart, making yourself and Matt Draven tag champions for the foreseeable future. What do you have to say about that?
John: I think the title 'champion' really suits me. Of course, it's only tag champion and I would really like something more. Like the Hardcore title, or if I'm feeling a bit more ambitious, the World title. But I'll celebrate with what I've got right now, and that's the tag championship.
Hank: Interesting... Speaking of the World title, Noble Savage is the current champion. If you win the upcoming tag league, you could get a title shot against her. Thoughts on the tag league?
John: Uh... I think it's an interesting concept. WCF is filled with these, Ultimate Showdown, Infinity Championship and now this tag league. These unique ideas is what WCF is made of, and what makes WCF different from the rest. So I'm somewhat looking forward to this tag league, even though the odds are pretty much stacked against us.
Hank: That's a valid point you make there, about the odds... Next match, a tag team match against Alex Richards and Odin Balfore, two of the biggest names in the fed. Now I'll ask the question weighing on everyone's mind... What are your thoughts on tag partner Matt Draven?
John: Christ, Hank! You're asking all the wrong questions!
John snatches the mic from Hank's hand and starts gesturing him to move away.
John: Go on. Shoo. Shoo!
Hank slowly exits the scene, and now it's only John who faces the camera.
John: Okay, WCF Galaxy... Just in case the question in your mind is 'what do I think about Matt Draven', I'll give a quick answer. Who gives a shit? He's my tag partner, I shouldn't focus on him!
Now here's the question that is actually on everyone's mind, 'what do you think about your opponents?' I will happily answer that.
It really doesn't take a genius to know that this match could end up being very one-sided. I mean, Alex Richards and Odin Balfore! I'm not going to be an idiot and say that there's no way they can beat me! Because that's simply not true. They're veterans of the business, and I haven't been in the WCF for a year yet. And don't forget Matt Draven too, who is still relatively new here.
But enough worrying, I'm going to get nowhere doing that. I need to tell you that there is a chance that Matt and I win. If you follow my page on Twitter, then you would've seen a post from Corey Black. That post was only three words, but it completely turned me around.
'Proving time, boys'
Because of that post, I became determined. We could beat this dream team! So this week I trained as hard as I could, plus more. If I'm going down this Slam, I'm going down swinging.
Now this is the part where I pick this team off one by one.
Alex Richards... I don't mind him. He's usually one of the first people to like my posts when I post them wherever, and I respect that.
That doesn't make him a stalker, ESTRELLA.
So yeah, he's a good guy. I respect him. He has skill, resilience and determination. Three true aspects of a wrestler.
Unfortunately, Alex isn't as good as he seems. Yep, I said it. He was strong as a Guardian, but as soon as Bonnie betrayed him for Johnny, he hasn't been great. He was pinned at that One main event, and he did get a win last week, but he only just got that. And that was against Samuel McPherson. So, with the training I've done, Alex Richards won't be easy to conquer, but it should be done.
Now on to Odin Balfore. Multi-time World champ. Wrestler and World Champion of the year. Member of one of the greatest tag teams ever. On his way to most victories in the WCF ever. Beating him is no easy feat, and I've learnt that already. I've faced him one-on-one and I was feeling cocky fresh off a win against Adam Young. But Odin is on a whole other level. But I've learnt. I learn from my mistakes. I'm leaving all my past behind me for this match.
Yes, I've just won, and successfully defended, my championship. But that doesn't matter. This tag league is something entirely new. And I'm determined to start this league with a win.
Also, something else, Odin, I've noticed that you're not really in your prime form right now either. A loss at One, a loss at the previous Slam... Two losses in a row? That's almost unheard of for you... And before that you looked a little sluggish against me. So maybe, just maybe, these two legends of the business aren't feeling the best... And they're rivals so they'll find it hard to work together. You see, Matt and I, so far, we're 2 out of 2.
So while we may end up going down... We sure aren't going down without a fight. Back to you, Hank.
John throws the mic back to Hank, who only just catches it.
Hank: Uh... There you have it, folks.
BONUS SCENE
John: You know, wrestling is more than just punches and kicks. There's emotion in it as well. For some, that emotion is passion. Others, it's determination. For me? Anger.
We find the jazziest of all Johns sitting on his lounge chair, as he flicks on the TV
John: Yes, I just found out my friend isn't moving back to New Orleans, but there's even sadder news, splattered across the media. Something about my glorious hometown.
He changes it to the news channel, and conveniently enough, they were showing the sports news
John: The Saints were robbed. The Super Bowl should be Saints vs Pats, but nope! The ref must've been Stevie Wonder or something, because he was BLIND. Helmet-to-fucking-helmet. Pass interference. There was never a more obvious call! But nope!
Normally I wouldn't mind, but this cost us the match, and perhaps, the Super Bowl. The Saints should be victorious, but that stupid ref blew it. He should be fired immediately.
So now, I'm forced to either go for the Rams, who robbed us, or go for the Patriots, who are the John Cenas of NFL. So this match, I'm gonna be...
All.
Fired.
Up.
