The video cuts into a gym. People are all over the place, but there's enough equipment that no one is having to wait more than five minutes to use a machine if that long. In one corner there's a bunch of women and a couple of men on the fitness equipment either riding the bike, walking/running on the treadmill, and some others are pouring sweat on the Arc Trainers. Back in another area of the gym are the weight benches where all the benches are taken up by someone lifting. Each bench has at least a couple of guys if not more gathered around, cheering on the one lifting the weight.
Hector's mask can be spotted across the gym. The crowd cheering him on is slightly bigger than the groups around the other benches as he's a known celebrity from TV. Occasionally glancing at him from across the gym is his current manager, Don Bradley, who sits on one of the stools at the Juice Bar. There's about three other people sitting on stools there, too. Two of them look like they're cooling down from an intense workout while the other person looks like he just walked in and is getting ready to start his own workout. A muscular man is talking to Don Bradley as the camera gets closer.
Man
Yeah, so you said you could probably get me at tryout?
Don turns to the man.
Don Bradley
Yeah, you keep doing what you're doing in GWF, Johnny. I've seen your work. Been to a few shows lately. I can talk to Seth and get you in WCF's developmental federation. You'd have to wrestle down there for at least a few matches before Seth would consider bringing you up to the main roster on WCF. I'll put in a good word for you though.
Man
Wow, thanks, Mr. Bradley.
Don Bradley
Don't mention it, kid. Here, take this. Call me if you need anything or if you end up seeing anyone else worth looking at, let me know about them.
Don Bradley hands the man a business card.
Man
Yes, sir. Well, I hope Hector does great at Ten. He's awesome.
The man reaches out and shakes hands with Don Bradley before walking away looking at the card. Don Bradley turns to the camera.
Don Bradley
So yeah, I turn on the TV the other day and what do I see? I see some absurd attempt at Conviction making a mockery of Hector's huge press conference in Vegas. We all know that mockery stems from jealousy. Jealousy that no one gives a damn about you, Conviction. You know, that was a really pathetic, laughable attempt at mocking his press conference. You get a few people in a room, people I will point out that no one ever gave a damn about. You put a group of musicians in the room that never made a name for themselves. See, that's perfect for you. Just like them, no one gives a damn about you. Just like them, you're never going to make a name for yourself here in WCF either. No, I'm sorry. I take that back. You will make a name for yourself. You'll be the joke that was put in the United States title match. You'll more than likely be the one who gets pinned by either Ace or Hector. That's all you're here for in WCF is to lay on your back like a little punk.
I mean, after all, I'll point it out again, you did that last week on Slam. You were where you belong, Conviction. On your back. That had to be your best performance here in WCF to date. Speaking of performances though, you want to keep bragging about how you bloodied Hector in your singles match. You wear that incident like some kind of badge of honor here in WCF. You act like it was something you did with ease. Nothing has been said about that before until you messed up in your little gathering of "homies".
You said that you busted him open within minutes as if you did it quickly or something. You moron, you did it near the end of the match due to a powerbomb on the outside of the ring on the thin mats covering the concrete. I swear, you really do have to be the dumbest person I've ever met, Conviction. You powerbombed a guy practically on the concrete and when he got busted open by that, you brag about it. Oh hey everyone, I'm Conviction and I busted a guy open in a wrestling match. Do you really think that's the first time Hector has been busted open in a wrestling match? Someone who has been in the hardcore division here in WCF?
You blame Ace Slaughter for your loss in the match on Slam. You really need to get it in your thick skull, just dig in there past all that thickness and find that tiny little brain and get in there and realize that you lost the match because of your own lack of wrestling skill. It doesn't matter if it was a tag team match and you had a partner. You were the one talking smack about your partner before the match even happened and then you blame him for the loss. Again, you show how much of an absolute idiot you are. How are you going to prove that about yourself next? It's why I get excited about listening to you talk, because you don't say smart things. You don't make smart remarks and even when you DO show shades of intelligence, it makes me think you either accidentally said the smart things or that you don't even understand what you just said since you're always making yourself look like an idiot.
I called you a big mouth a while back and I realized that you're such a big mouth because you stick your foot in your mouth all the time. You're not a small individual, you're a big guy so you've probably got big feet. So it all makes sense! Face it, no one gives a damn about you. I don't care how many times you respond and go "nunh unh, Hector is the one no one cares about". No one cares about you. No one thinks you're smart enough to win this Sunday. You think you're going to prove people wrong, but that's where you make your mistake...you were thinking!
Oh and what's this garbage about "newbie"? This isn't the Internet. We're not playing Halo or some crap like that shooting down n00bs. Again, nice job looking smart. Your segments on television are so exciting because there's so much to laugh about and make fun of. Think I'm done with you yet? No! I have more gems that show off your lack of intelligence. Speaking of newbie, you claimed that you've been called a coward. Go review the segments, not once were YOU called a coward. The only mention of coward that I have made in these last two weeks is when talking about how you called Hector a coward.
Now, see here's where this gets interesting. Every time I've called you an idiot or a nobody or anything, I explain why. When have you explained once why Hector is a coward? You sit there calling the guy names but don't explain why you think he's a coward. Let me guess...is it because he wears a mask? I hope not, because you'll show you're nothing more than an ignorant moron if wearing a mask makes him a coward. Go ahead and say it, show that you know nothing about the sport that makes you money. Is it the fact that he doesn't talk on the microphone and his managers do his talking? If so, explain why he needs to be talking on the microphone and why someone else can't talk for him while he does his talking in the ring. Sorry that I've given you such a big challenge. For your average, intelligent person it would be easy, but for you it is a near impossible task.
Sunday, bring all your boys from your little "press conference". I don't mean bring them as backup against MS-13. I mean bring them so they can show you how to get the arena in case you get lost on the way. Also, maybe if we get enough nobodies in the ring together, it'll make you a somebody finally. You probably think people see you as the underdog in this match, but the thing is people don't see you as the underdog. The underdog actually has a slight chance at winning the match. You're there for comedic relief so people can laugh at you because you think you're actually going to win the match. They'll laugh as you attempt what you call wrestling moves. You're a joke. Realize it, embrace it, fix it. Please. When we look back upon WCF history at Ten, I don't think Seth Lerch would want to have an asterisk by the United States title match saying that even though Hector Rodriguez won, it wasn't the greatest match in the world because Conviction stunk the place up and the crowd booed the entire match because Conviction couldn't cut it.
One more thing before I turn my words to someone in the match that is an actual threat, you said something about how we are trying to cater to the fans again. No, we're not. Talking about the WCF Cribs episode you did was us simply pointing out how much of an idiot you are and it was us making fun of you because we knew the fans wouldn't like that. You should probably think before you speak, but I know that's asking too much, right?
Don Bradley shakes his head, smiling with a look of disbelief on his face at the same time. The smile leaves his face as he continues.
Don Bradley
Now, let's turn this to Ace Slaughter. Glad to finally hear from you, but the first thing I have to say is what the hell was that on TV?!!? I swear, between the idiot Conviction and you bringing in your army of the Lollipop Kids, the Munchkins from Wizard of Oz, this is becoming a carnival. This match is quickly becoming a joke since one man is mentally challenged and then the guy that hears voices is bringing midgets to watch his back. That's fine, I guess Hector and his manager will one-up you by wearing ankle guards that taste like vinegar so that they only get bit once before the little guys learn their lesson.
Ace Slaughter, you bring your army with you because that's exactly what you'll need. I'll just go ahead and let you know that you're not going to see MS-13 at ringside, you're going to be seeing a member of the gang. But that's fine, because like I said, it's going to take your whole army and Conviction's Boyz II Men wannabe group to keep Hector from winning the United States title. No, seriously, Conviction they're not doing the same style of music as Boyz II Men, but I'm sure like no one cares about that group anymore, no one cares about your boys either. No, back to Ace though. As it's been said, your time is up as United States champion. It's time for a new champion. Oh and go ahead and prove you are a worthy United States champion, nothing wrong with that, but you're not going to prove that you deserve to be the current champion, there's a big difference there.
Don turns as Hector walks up, mopping up sweat from his workout. Don pulls out his wallet and then a couple of bills from it and hands it to the woman behind the bar and she hands Hector a recovery drink which he starts drinking immediately. Don turns back to the camera.
Don Bradley
This man here beside me, Hector Rodriguez. He's walking out of Ten as the United States champion. Ace, good luck in the match this Sunday. You'll need it. Conviction?
Don Bradley laughs and shakes his head as he turns to Hector. The video slowly cuts out.
