[shadow=red,left,300]Man life is a trip, But I don’t plan on falling!-Young Mannie[/shadow]
The scene opens with Young Mannie leaning on the arm rest of his apartment patio, sipping a glass of peach Ciroc vodka...He seems to be at a clear state of mind as he has not smoked since, July 9th...Not to say Mannie had quitted but has been able to pick & choose his moments of clarity better. Mannie takes another sip from the glass in his right hand, As his iPhone rings his left. It’s a text message from DW saying that Mannie’s 1st match back is a battle royal...Mannie smiles as he remembers his 1st match in APW was a battle royal.
Flashback Moment
New Years Retribution February 1st 2010
Mannie starts to close his eyes as he remembers it so clearly & vivid. My heart was beating so loud I thought everyone in the Lockeroom B could hear it, I could feel the fresh air in the atmosphere and for the first time in a long time. I could breathe without all the politics of IWF and I honestly felt looking around that Lockeroom, I could be Young Mannie “The Wrestler” and not Young Mannie “The Weed Gimmick” and before I knew it, I was behind the curtain; I could hear Harvey & Chase jawing back & forth as always. And then everything went silent to me; Except for the crowd as they counted down, 10...9...8...7...6...5...4...3...2...1, It’s Showtime!
Harvey: Its going on 11 minutes now.
Chase: Speaking of 11, the 11th entrant is on his way out
The buzzer goes off and number 11 is…Young Mannie from IWF.
Harvey: The odds just got good for IWF, two men from that fed are in the ring.
Hutt takes Ryan down with a punch as Mannie slides into the ring. Hutt and Mannie look face to face.
(Inner thought: Muthafucking Hutt Anderson...*Cues theme from the Good, the Bad and the Ugly*)
Chase: These two have a history with one another.
Harvey: But you have to remember, its every man or woman for themselves.
(Inner thought: Let’s go Bitch!)
The two just stare at each other, exchanging a few words, and then Ryan hits Mannie from behind and Stalker does the same to Hutt. Stalker kicks Hutt and goes for a piledriver, but Hutt backdrops Stalker over the top rope. Stalker lands on the ring apron and out of no where, Katie comes in with a kick, knocking Stalker off the apron and onto the floor
STALKER KNIGHT IS ELIMINATED
Gladiator and Hutt pair off, Ryan and Mannie are still battling and Katie goes after Assassin. The 3 pairs battle as the next competitor is set to come out.
The buzzer goes off and it Jonny Briggs from Evolution Wrestling. Jonny gets into the ring and goes to Gladiator and gives him a double axe handle to the back and then a german suplex. Jonny goes to go after Hutt, but Hutt cuts him off with a big forearm shot to the face. Jonny goes down and stomps on his face. Mannie has Ryan Rucks and gives him a Roaring Elbow, knocking him down. With Hutt’s guard down, Mannie jumps on Hutt’s back and wraps his arms around his head with a Sleeper. Hutt backs into a corner, crushing Mannie. Hutt grabs Mannie and scoop slams him to the mat. Hutt jumps to the middle ropes and comes off with a fist drop. Out of no where, Katie jumps up on Jonny Briggs and goes for a Hurricanrana, but Johnny counters and power bombs her, and at the same time, Assassin jumps off, giving Katie a back cracker.
Chase: HOLY CRAP!
Harvey: They may have broken her back!
Chase: That’s insane.
The buzzer goes off and the lucky number 13th man in is Damage from WWA. Damage runs and, sliding under the bottom ropes and goes after Assassin, taking him down with a double leg take down and starts biting Assassin on his fore head. Mannie is back and goes after Damage, taking him down and gives him a moonsault leg drop. Jonny Briggs grabs Mannie and has him on the ropes, Jonny runs at him and Mannie pulls down the ropes and over Jonny goes.
JONNY BRIGGS IS ELIMINATED
(Inner thought: *2 Live Crew/Uncle Luke Voice* HEEEYYYYYYY I AMMMMMM YOUUUUNNGGGG MANNNNNNIE! ANNNND NNNNNOOOOOWWWWW YOOOOUUU ARRRRRREE A PUUUSSS...Oh shit!)
Hutt nails Mannie from behind, but Ryan Ruckus low blows Hutt. Ryan and Mannie work together on Hutt. Gladiator goes after Damage, he kicks him and clubs him hard between the shoulder blades. Gladiator brings Damage over to the ropes and has him leaning over the ropes, trying to eliminate him. Just then, out of no where, Ryan Ruckus lifts up Gladiator and both Gladiator and Damage go over the top rope and onto the floor.
DAMAGE HAS BEEN ELIMINATED
GLADIATOR HAS BEEN ELIMINATED
Gladiator looks into the ring to see Ryan standing there. Gladiator slams his hands on the mat in anger.
Chase: Ryan Ruckus just eliminated two men at once.
Harvey: He could be a favorite to win this.
Chase: Maybe entrant number 14 has something to say about that
The buzzer goes off and out comes The Masked Marvel. He comes down to the ring jumps up on the ring apron and climbs the top rope and leaps off, connecting Ryan Ruckus with a cross body block. Marvel gets up and goes over to Young Mannie and gives him a belly to belly suplex. Marvel turns and gets caught with a springboard dropkick from Katie. Assassin grabs Katie by the air and pulls her down to the mat. Assassin goes over to Marvel, pulls him up and suplexes him in the middle of the ring. Hutt then grabs Assassin and throws him shoulder first in the corner. With Assassin in the corner, Hutt begins stomping him. Ryan Ruckus goes to Marvel and punches him to the ropes then throws him into the ropes and connects with a back body drop. Marvel gets up and Ruckus kicks him and goes for the Piledriver, but Marvel drops to his knee and punches Ryan in the stomach and then takes him down with a Crippler Crossface. Marvel pulls back on the next as the countdown begins
Chase: Number 15
Harvey: And we’re not even half way though
The Buzzer goes and "Bulletproof" by Five Finger Deathpunch hits and out comes APW’s own, Victor Hades. Hades gets into the ring and goes straight for Assassin, and dumps him over the top rope
ASSASSIN HAS BEEN ELIMINATED
Chase: What is he doing?
Harvey: Its everyman for himself and Victor Hades doesn’t care what fed your from.
With Marvel still having the Crossface on Ryan, Hades kicks Marvel in the head and picks him up and nails him with a brain buster. Hades jumps up as Katie walks up to Hades and slaps him across the face. Hades looks at her, with a sadistic look and starts walking towards her, backing her towards the corner. Hutt Anderson spins Hades around and goes for a punch, but Hades blocks it and Katie low blows Hades from behind. With Hades bent over, Hutt takes Hades, picks him up and plants him with a Piledriver.
Chase: Hades may have his neck broken right there
The buzzer goes off as 16 comes out. Wearing an EWC T-Shirt, Its Mike Corral. Mikes slides into the ring and goes right after Ryan Ruckus. Mike punches Ryan to the corner and begins spearing him. Hutt and Katie stomp on Victor Hades and as Hutt goes to pick Hades up, Mannie out of no where, grabs Hutt from behind and tosses him over the top rope, but Hutt lands on his feet, on the ring apron. Mannie punches him, but Hutt holds on. Mannie grabs Hutt for a suplex and goes to lift him up, but Hutt blocks it. Hutt then lifts Mannie up and suplexes him out of the ring
YOUNG MANNIE HAS BEEN ELIMINATED
Mannie’s eyes open back up, as I look back out; unto my patio as he sips his glass. And lights a black & mild as he continues to reminisce.
Right after raising to my feet, I high-fived the fans on my way to the back, and got some cheers; All in all I gave it everything I had and people recognized it. And after I got back to the Lockeroom and I realized that this had to be a dream. An actual real wrestling company; that puts the focus on the talent and not the bullshit. I knew something new was over me as I was packing my stuff. I said to myself, one I will be back & I’m not coming alone, and second IWF is not ready for the real Young Mannie. So after I left APW, I went back to IWF with a new attitude and new desire and not long after that I re-won the tag titles from Hutt Anderson. And I was well on my way to singles gold; Until new management took over and screwed me not only out of the belts, and my World title shot. But I’m not bitter because soon after that misfortune President Jeff called me and at first I was sighing because I thought it was about the dime-bags and the aroma I left in the Lockeroom...So I tried to apologize and Jeff quickly told me it was that but I would find a small fine for that, But he couldn’t prove it was me due to the cameras fogging up and the missing dime-bags evidence. So laughed as he explained he was interested in acquiring my contract from IWF and I was excited on the inside but I didn’t quickly agree as I re-negotiated a new deal for the entire RSM, and the rest was history.
Mannie turns on his Flipcam, which is sitting on the other side of the patio on a tripod. He begins to talk as he sips his glass
YM: Damn time flies (Exhaling) But it does move on. And Since I’m only still early into my 20’s I have so much further to keep going. And I don’t plan on stopping. But it’s funny my career started & took off in an APW battle royal, And how proper it has a rebirth in the same cycle. Man life is a trip but I don’t plan on falling. All I know is once I get back to that arena Monday evening for the first time in a long time. It’s going to be nostalgic, And I won’t disappoint and who knows maybe like the first battle royal; I won’t win but I guarantee I will leave a impact like I did during that one. I will leave it all on the line and I will give every part of me. And for the first time in a long time, I’m going in as Young Mannie “the APW wrestler”, and not Young Mannie “the APW joke”!
YM: But as I reminisce some more, I see the likeness and similarities of both my current competitors and mines from the Retribution battle royal...See let’s start with the weakest to strongest. So where do I begin, Well since I didn’t have breakfast this morning. I’ll begin with Dante, O’Hare, and Mitch Miles. Not to bunch you all in the same boat, But too pretty much bet it all. I can’t see you leaving with that title shot over me. Let’s face it rookies. I’m the “Rookie Killer” and you’re just wet behind the ears. It’s like we are the least liked and more importantly unlikely wrestlers to win by fans choice or other wrestler’s votes. So by that nomination, I have to at least prove that I’m so much damn better than you all and way past all of you. See the fact that anyone would put me down to your level is bothering me. So If I don’t out last you, I can pretty much say this return was bust. See you guys are the Jonny Briggs and Stalker Knights of the battle , You know the ones who try to attack me first but I will always out move and out think them. Plus their always quick to get eliminated; As soon I get into the ring and after my pace sets...You guys will just be part of the extra space after I take pride in throwing your asses on the black mats.
Sips from glass, and puffs black & mild
YM: You can also include Bacon Andrews to that same statement. But moving on let’s see Dita Morgan and Carmen Rivera, by default the old me would’ve said you two had no chance of being a threat since you are women wrestlers. But I know better now too discount a woman in this profession, and it’s all thanks too Sally Talfourd kicking my ass so much. Thanks Sally (Smirks & Blows Kiss) So hmm that would make you two them Damage and Gladiator’s of the Royal...As in I will have to stay away from you tricks but when the time right I will dump both of your asses out as well; But it’s good a thing because you will last longer than them other 4 guys but at the sometime you will be more difficult to read. But fortunate for me one thing that’s true about women; They can’t co-exist if they both want the same thing; So while you both bicker I will laugh while you wonder how you go down there. (Winks)
Smokes a bit more
YM: And to the next three Goodburn, Stryker, and Shadow. Let me think, Ahhh! You three are the Masked Marvel, Assassin, and Victor Hades. You guys will be annoying as you will sneak attack and try eliminating others; while playing possum but you know what I already prepared for you boys. I will execute my Lucha Libre because I’m not scared of falling or getting eliminated. It’s called High-risk for a reason. So get ready for more moves than you keep up with and if you concentrate long enough, You might learn something.
Staring out in the area and sighing
YM: And well last but not least the two most dangerous wrestlers in this match...”Bad Boy” Shane Borderland and “Your Hey-Zeus” Michael Lively. I honestly can’t joke or really say I have any real strategy against you two; You two more than others are my biggest threat...Borderland was one of my biggest pains while during his first run in APW with Dangertainment and Jason Kash! They sweep the whole tag division and made sure I couldn’t achieve the brass ring. And who am I to lie in saying that if he didn’t had left I would’ve never been a tag champ. But if you do remember like most of APW Universe I whooped your ass as much you did mines. And I’m proud of the matches we had, And it’s an honor to share that ring once again with you. But all the respect in the world; won’t stop me from putting my heart and body on the line in an effort in winning that title shot. So Shane if you and I already know you still got it. So please bring that and more because I’m long & far from being done about our old rivalry. Now Mr. Hey-Zeus you’re an APW legend, an Extreme legend, and even more one of the baddest motherfucker I’ve never been in the ring with. So because of that I have to bring my a-game I have to have that bit of a Mark Moment and fight of my fantasy opponents. So when I look into your eyes and you look back; You won’t see a scared boy but a Man; A Young Man who is ready the legend and to make one out of himself that night. I’ll be a man of my word and what that night I will leave it all in that ring. So prepare for my awakening!
Finishing that last bit of Ciroc as he gulps and tosses the glass over the patio into the pool below
YM: So come bell to bell on Monday Meltdown, My opponents can expect and especially you Michael Lively; and it’s obvious a lot of people don’t want me back. I can understand but it’s not about what you want, It’s about what APW needs and that is my return and I will show you all once again why...I deserve to be here & more importantly “I Want This Shit Forever!”
