Inside their locker room, as Monday Night Meltdown is soon to begin, Sang Réal, Connor Murphy and Gabriel Krown are getting ready for their match this evening. In the second match of the night, the tag team of two second generation wrestlers will face fellow second generation wrestler Warren Peace, the former North American Champion.
Murphy is standing while Krown is seated on a chair. The two men are wearing black tights with a DNA double helix on the right leg with “Sang Réal” written across it. The only difference between their tights is Krown’s has a crown with “Krown” written across it, while Murphy has a four leaf clover and the name “Murphy” across it.
Krown is lacing his boots. Like Murphy’s, Krown’s boots are black. The difference in their boots is the initials on the side. The two have their own initials on the side of their boots.
Murphy is pulling a pair of black elbow pads with a red blood drop on them up his arms, adjusting them to get them to sit just right on his arms. Krown is already wearing his elbow pads, which are the same as his partner’s, black with a blood drop. Their knee pads are also black with a red blood drop.
Their robes, which they wear for their entrance, hang in a cubby behind them. They are styled more like a cloak with sleeves and a belt. The robes are purple with gold trim. The belts are gold and green, with Krown wearing the gold belt and Murphy wearing the green. On the back is a DNA double helix made of clovers and crowns in the center of a large red blood drop and “Sang Réal” written across the top of the blood drop in sort of an arch.
The two men are wearing Action Packed Wrestling logo t-shirts as they are new and do not yet have merchandise with their names, images, sayings or anything on them to sell to the masses.
Krown: “Think they are ready for it?”
Krown slips on his boots onto his feet and starts to lace them up.
Murphy: “Okay, honestly, when have we ever really cared about things like if anyone was ready for it, or if it was appropriate or censor issues?”
Krown stops and looks at his partner with a confused look on his face.
Krown: “True, but for the first episode?”
Murphy: “Well look at it this way, is anything we say during the course of the show going to be any more offensive than anything Michael Lively has ever said or will ever say when he faces any woman on the APW roster?”
Murphy finishes adjusting his elbow pads. Krown nods and finishes his boot. He starts on the other one, sliding it on and starting to lace it up.
Krown: “Okay. No, that’s a fair point.”
Murphy: “I thought it was a valid argument.”
Pausing from lacing his boot, Krown nods at Murphy’s statement.
Krown: “No, no. It makes sense if you put it like that.”
While Murphy checks on the robes hanging in the cubby on the back wall, Krown goes back to getting his boots on.
Murphy: “I thought so. We already have the set, so we may as well use it. Otherwise, why have it?”
Krown stops to think and then shrugs, nodding to his fellow second generation wrestler.
Krown: “That’s also a good point.”
Murphy: “Thank you.”
Krown: “Well I’m in. Just have to get by Warren Peace first.”
Murphy: “I really doubt it will be that hard. There is two of us and one of him, so the odds are in our favor.”
At this point, there is a knock on the door to the locker room. The two second generation wrestlers look at each other.
Krown: “Did you order take out?”
Murphy looks at Krown with a confused look on his face.
Murphy: “What?”
Krown: “It is a valid question. You could have ordered a pizza or something like Chinese. Although, come to think of it, how you often do you find a Chinese place that deliver?”
Murphy: “I’m not really sure. I think it has to be a major city for Chinese delivery. Pizza gets delivered no matter what. Not sure about Mexican places.”
Krown: “I don’t know if they deliver outside of the Southwest and I am pretty sure they don’t there.”
There is another knock on the door of the locker room.
Murphy: “It’s open.”
The door opens and Monday Night Meltdown backstage interviewer Hannah Storm, a cameraman and a sound guy holding a boom mic walks into the locker room. Hannah has a mic in her hand. Krown gets to his feet adjusting his elbow pad as he does so.
Hannah: “Sang Réal, tonight, you face Warren Peace in a Handicap match. Last week, you made your debut in a successful match against Yanzel Holmes and Warren Peace with what some called a dominating victory. How are you feeling going into this match?”
Murphy: “You know what Hannah? We are feeling really good going into this match. Last week we made our successful debut here in Action Packed Wrestling and this week we will continue that trend with another dominating victory.”
Krown: “We are the best team in Action Packed Wrestling that are not currently Tag Team Champions, and we are probably better than Dying Breed. At the very least, our name is better than the other teams here.”
Hannah: “What?”
Krown: “Well you have a team that sounds pessimistic, one named after a candy, one named for a commodity that is tough to build but easy to break, one that is just names crammed together which isn’t a real word and then one that sounds like it’d be an Asian restaurant. Really, I would say Sang Réal is the best named team here.”
Hannnah: “I don’t really see how that’s relevant to your match tonight.”
Murphy: “Well it’s not.”
Krown: “Not even close.”
Murphy: “But we heard that there was to be some sort of tag team thing at the upcoming Mayhem pay-per-view and we want to throw our hats into the ring to be a part of it.”
Krown: “Now maybe they don’t want us involved, but really, how many teams are there? I think like five or six at least. I mean that’s not bad. We’re certainly doing better than the women’s division here in Action Packed Wrestling.”
Murphy: “There is not women’s division in Action Packed Wrestling. This company doesn’t have a Women’s Championship and even if it did, I think there are like four women here.”
Krown puts his hands on his head and huffs out a breath rather angrily. He throws his arms up into the air and turns to the back wall of the locker room, walking towards it.
Krown: “Great, now if we wrestle a woman, someone on the roster is just going to complain about it like they did when we made fun of Yanzel Holmes. Yet no one defends poor, possibly homicidal, Robina Hood. Where is the justice in that?”
Murphy shrugs and rubs his chin as his partner calms down and regains his composure. Krown turns back towards his tag team partner and the backstage interviewer.
Murphy: “The point is, we are confident that we are the best team in Action Packed Wrestling today and we are confident that we will be a part of whatever tag team showcase match is happening at Mayhem, if there is indeed one happening.”
Krown nods at his partner’s words.
Krown: “We got this.”
Hannah: “Be that as it may, getting back on topic, tonight you two are facing Warren Peace.”
Krown: “This is also a this that we got.”
Murphy: “Tonight is the battle of the second generation stars. And only one of us, he glances at Krown with a smirk on his face make that two of us, are going to be standing victorious when the match is over. The odds tonight are in our favor, not Warren’s.”
Krown: “Warren Peace has no one in his corner. He does not have anyone on the apron to tag out to. He can’t turn to The Great Gatsby or Oliver Twist or Robinson Crusoe or Peter Pan or Suttree or such great teams as Huckleberry Finn and Tom Sawyer or Dick and Jane. He can not rely on anyone to help him in the ring tonight because there is no one out there to help him.”
Murphy looks at Krown, his eyebrow raised. He nods a bit.
Murphy: “Nice use of literary references.”
Krown: “Thank you.”
The two second generation wrestlers and former American Championship Wrestling Tag Team Champions turn back to the wrestler turned backstage interviewer.
Murphy: “Warren Peace is all alone out there tonight. We are not. This is under tag team rules. We are a tag team. That gives us an advantage.”
Krown gestures to himself and his tag team partner as he looks at Hannah.
Krown: “And then there is the breeding. We are just a better breed that Warren Peace is. We’re royalty; nobility. Warren may be a second generation wrestler, but he’s barely a step above peasant.”
Murphy: “Warren Peace is the bastard that resulted after a one night stand between an adequate wrestler and some toothless white trash trailer park slut. His dad swooped into town, nailed a skank and nine months later, Warren Peace was crapped out and has been resenting it ever since.”
Krown: “Warren Peace is proof that nothing builds confidence like lifelong self-loathing.”
Hannah: “Isn’t it possible that you are underestimating a former North American Champion?”
The two second generation wrestlers look at each other for a moment. Murphy turns back to Hannah and holds up a finger.
Murphy: “One moment.”
Turning from Hannah, the members of Sang Réal huddle up. Hannah looks a bit put off by this, but waits. Murphy and Krown talked in hushed tones in the huddle with Krown occasionally popping his head up to peek. After about three minutes, they break the huddle and turn back to Hannah.
Murphy: “After careful consideration, we feel that the answer to your question is going to be a no. No, we do not feel we are underestimating a former North American Champion.”
Krown: “Not in the least. In fact, we feel as though we are estimating him just enough.”
Murphy: “He was North American Champion for like a week or less. I’ve been a champion longer than that, both as a Tag Team Champion and a singles wrestler.”
Krown: “Yeah he was North American Champion and he lost the title. What has he done since then? Nothing but lose matches. He hasn’t even tried to get a rematch. He lost and is clearly okay with it.”
Murphy: “We beat him when he had Yanzel Holmes as back up. He has no backup now and we are more than confident that he can beat him when he is all alone.”
Krown: “We win this handicap and who knows where that takes us? Maybe it will be Sang Réal versus the Guv’Nor in a handicap match for the North American Championship. Then we can avenge his killing Milton and Andrea and his militia from Woodbury.”
The son of Sheamus Murphy and younger brother of Mark Murphy sighs and shakes his head. He looks at his partner.
Murphy: “No, wrong guy. It’s The Guv’Nor, not The Governor. It’s governor with a cockney British accent.”
A look of realization forms on Krown’s face.
Krown: “Oh!”
Murphy: “Yeah.”
Krown: “Well I still choose to make The Walking Dead references as we have nothing else really for him.”
Murphy stops for a moment and thinks. He nods a bit.
Murphy: “Okay, that’s fair.”
Krown: “At least until we think of something better.”
Murphy: “I will admit that co-North American Champions has a nice ring to it.”
Krown: “I know, right?”
Hannah: “Uh, guys?”
Sang Réal, Connor Murphy and Gabriel Krown, turn back to Hannah Storm.
Krown: “Yes?”
Hannah: “Your match with Warren Peace tonight.”
Krown looks dejected for a moment.
Krown: “Oh right. That.”
The heir to the Krown wrestling line sighs dejectedly.
Murphy: “You could say that Warren Peace has bit of a little more than he can chew and he’s about to choke or he’s written a check that he cannot cash. Either way, the same point is made. The point being that we are going to walk to that ring tonight and we are going to beat Warren Peace.”
Krown: “It is just one of those things that happens. We’re not worried. If he was major star that the Meltdown brand had been built around, then maybe we would be a little concerned. But right now? No so much.”
Murphy: “We can win this with Checkmate or Murphy’s Law or Toujours Pur or just hit him until he stops moving and win that way. We have options. He doesn’t. He is going to have to try and eliminate one of us in order to win and we can keep the fresh guy in t5he ring for the whole match.”
Krown: “See, we have options and options are good.”
Murphy: “Murphy’s Law states that we are going to send Warren Peace back to the gutter where his mom is.”
Krown: “And that is going to be Checkmate.”
The two turn their attention from Hannah Storm and now look directly into the camera being pointed at them by the cameraman who accompanied Hannah into the locker room.
Murphy: “We are Sang Réal.”
Krown: “And we were born better.”
The two men walk off. The camera turns back to Hannah Storm.
Hannah: “Ladies and Gentlemen, tonight, Sang Réal versus Warren Peace in a handicap match live on Monday Night Meltdown.”
At this point, Murphy and Krown walk back into the locker room.
Krown: “This is our locker room. You leave and we stay.”
For a moment, Hannah looks confused and a little taken back by Krown’s statement. He starts to shoo her out of the locker room.
Krown: “Get. Go. Shoo.”
Hannah, her cameraman and the sound technician all exit the room. Krown shakes his head as he watches them leave. As soon as the door closes, he sighs
Krown: “I tell you, some people.”
Murphy does not respond. He just shakes his head and starts to stretch out as the scene fades to black.
Murphy is standing while Krown is seated on a chair. The two men are wearing black tights with a DNA double helix on the right leg with “Sang Réal” written across it.
