“I've never apologized for who I am, because I've always been who I said I was...” ― ‘The Main Attraction’ “Young” Mannie Romero
The scene begins to open up from Studio 41; right inside of the CBS Broadcast Center. Which is located in New York City, New York. The same place where 'The Main Attraction' "Young" Mannie Romero is scheduled to be at for BET's 106 & Park TV show. 'The Main Attraction' had been working on all week doing press-runs for APW, every where from radio stations to late-night television cameos. Yet, Mannie still had one last spot to make on the press-run and this one in particular was a special one for Mannie, because ever since Mannie was a youngster he wanted to appear on that show. I know what you're thinking right now, what's so special about 106 & Park? Well maybe for you it's just another show; but for Mannie it's not only another check off his Bucket-List, but also a chance to reach a new generation of pro-wrestling fans...
So as we move in closer on the scene; the show has just came back from commercial break. We can now see the 106 & Park host already on stage talking a bit, as they're ready to start the next segment...
Bow Wow: Okay Yall; our next guest is set to appear on 'The Biggest Stage of them All' RassleMania 10, for what will be the very last time on March 28th.
Keshia Chante: Not too mention that he is a spokesman of both the Ciroc and Adidas brands and he's a cutie pie to boot.
*Raising a brow while looking his co-host* Bow Wow: Oh Yeah Keshia, It's like that hunh?
*Laughing* Keshia Chante: What Bow? I'm just saying what all the ladies are thinking, right ladies?
And right on cue the female audience members all agree with a big 'Yes', as the co-hosts finish the introduction.
*Shrugging* Bow Wow: Well fellas, I guess if the ladies are ready then we're ready. So let's go ahead and bring out the boy, “Young” Mannie!
Ty Dolla $ign “Never Be The Same” hits the airways as 'The Main Attraction' “Young” Mannie Romero steps through the sliding doors. He first salutes the audience as they give him loud cheers, Next Mannie goes over to Keshia and gives her a hug & kiss. Then he makes his way over to Bow by giving him a dap-up. Finally after all of that, the small "Meet and Greet" wraps-up as they all take their seats on the couch. Meanwhile; back in the stands there are some female fans crying in their #MAEra t-shirts, while some of the other females are waving & fanning themselves with their signs. Yet; all the male supports who are also there, are just playing it cool by saluting 'The Main Attraction' back.
106 & Park, What's Up?
Bow Wow: Ahhh man, *Throwing up his hands* Mannie has already took all my ladies from me. *Smirking* Right fellas?
Some of the guys agree but the rest just chill out, although the females have no problem showing their love to Mannie.
*Giving Bow Wow the side-eye* Keshia Chante: Really Bow? *Turning back to Mannie* Don't mind him...
*Chuckling* Bow Wow: Okay, okay...But for real though, what's good brah?
*Lounging back* Mannie: Nothing much brah, I'm just trying to chill & relax. You know? It's been a long ass week.
Keshia Chante: I could only imagine how tired I would be, after seeing how much press that you've been doing for RassleMania all this week.
Mannie: Yeah tell me about it, I've haven't been able to get more than 2 hours of sleep since It started. Plus, I have only about two weeks to prep for my match.
*Frowning* Keshia Chante: Awww!
The females say “Awww” right along with Keshia, as Bow Wow ain't having it.
*Shoving his Co-host* Bow Wow: Alright Keshia; now you know you better cut that out, because Jacinta's right up there watching too.
The camera cuts to the audience balcony where Jacinta and Alec are standing at, while watching the show go-on down below. Jacinta makes a friendly wave at them, as Mannie kindly responds back.
Bow Wow: Oh! And is that Alec with her? What good Big Homie?
Alec salutes Bow before replying back.
I'm just keeping it Jiggy!
Mannie: Ahhh man, yall trying to get me in trouble when I leave here. *Blowing a kiss at Jacinta* Hey Baby, I Love You!
Jacinta blows a kiss back before shouting back at Mannie.
I Love You Too Papi!
*Putting her hand in his face* Keshia Chante: Whatever Bow! *Rolling her eyes* I ain't mad at you girl, keep loving your man. So anyways Mannie...
The two play fight a little bit, before Bow gets back on track with the interview.
Bow Wow: So yeah Mannie, I know that you've also been busy working with your endorsements and the new company that you work for right?
*Nodding* Mannie: Yeah Bow; You already know I'm repping out here strong for my teams, but shout-out to Ciroc & Adidas for keeping your boy spiffy!
*Chuckling* Bow Wow: Oh yeah brah, I already know what you mean. But, speaking of sponsors. Let's go ahead and take our first commercial break. Will be right back with more 106 & Park.
The show has just came back from a commercial break; as we now see Bow Wow, Keshia Chante, and 'The Main Attraction' all sitting in movie-set style chairs, although the scenery is different because they're now on another side of the stage. The set is surround by a mini-ring replica, as Keshia is dressed in a referee shirt and Bow has on a Mr. Dangerous mask. The trio seemed to be be in a middle of conversation, when the cue to start was sent back to Keshia.
Keshia Chante: Okay! We're back yall...
Bow Wow: Yeah Keshia! That's right and we're still here with "Young" Mannie.
Keshia Chante: And we're about to get the word on everything...*Staring at Mannie, who looks a bit nervous* You look scared? Don't be scared Mannie! *Smiling*
*Chuckling* Mannie: Ahhh! I'm not really sure how to respond, but I'm willing to give it a go.
*Smiling* Bow Wow: Don't worry brah, we got you. *Checking on his co-host* You ready Kesh?
Keshia Chante: Boy! If you don't go ahead...*Smirking*
Bow Wow: Alright then, let's get it. Okay Mannie; so right besides us is a video screen, and on this video screen are going to be questions. So instead of choosing some questions to ask you, we're instead going to let you choose your own. So here's how it works! First the screen will flash the questions in a rapid fashion, then you will have to say "Stop" each time you want to catch a new question.
The TV monitor above the mini-ring flashes a couple shots of Mannie in action, as the final clip is title board displaying the words "The Man Behind Wrestler".
Keshia Chante: Oh Okay.
Bow Wow: The Man Behind The Wrestler...*Tapping his ear monitor*
Mannie: Hmmm...*Nodding*
Bow Wow: Okay Mannie, so who are you outside of the ring?
Right before Mannie could answer the question, he is interrupted by a audience member who shouts out "Dope!".
*Smirking* Mannie: Sure you right!
*Shooing* Keshia Chante: Hey! We already know that. *Flipping her hair behind the ear* So Mannie would you kindly respond?
*Waving at them* Bow Wow: Yeah Brah, go ahead...
'The Main Attraction' take his time before answering, as he really considers what was asked about him.
Mannie: Let's see...Well I'm a Giver, Provider, Lover *Ladies screaming*, Friend, Homie. I mean for real, for real. I'm just Dope! *Laughing*
*Laughing* Bow Wow: Well you heard him Kesh...He's Dope! The boy does it all, you hear me?
The audience laughs along with them, as Keshia just shakes head.
Keshia Chante: Okay Mannie! *Giving the side-eye* We said that we already knew that, but we will give you a pass. This Time! *Wagging her finger at him*
Bow Wow: Okay Brah, so let's go to the next question...
The screen flashes again, as Mannie lets it go for about 7 seconds before stopping it.
Keshia Chante: Ummm, we got "What's the craziest thing to happen to you thus far in wrestling?"
*Rubbing his stubble* Mannie: Ahhh! That's going to be a tough one, but I would have to say meeting & dealing with 'The Basket Case' Amy Zing.
Some members of the audience say "Ohhh!" right along with the co-host, as they know about who he's referring too.
*Leaning backwards* Bow Wow: Wooooooooo!
*Raising her hands* Keshia Chante: Well...I wasn't going to say it, but I'm glad that you did. See okay listen, Mannie last year was in this intense feud with this female wrestler Amy Zing. Now before yall start thinking "A Man vs A Woman", Well let me just stop you right there. Because that girl could hold her own, I mean she was a wild one.
*Nodding* Bow Wow: You know what I'm saying Kesh? So speaking of Amy Zing, would you care to explain the situation & conflict that was between yall for those who don't know?
*Nodding* Mannie: Oh Yeah! So back when I was on the Meltdown back in APW right, I was at the time still managed by my Uncle Charlie.
Bow Wow: Oh Yeah, Uncle Charlie. I almost for about him brah, where is he at though by the way?
Keshia Chante: Yeah I saw him there one week, but then he was gone the next?
Everybody leans in to hear what Mannie has got to say, as he continues on talking about it.
*Grabbing his crotch before flashing his Rolex* Mannie: Well let's just say that his time with me, ran it's course.
*Leaning again* Bow Wow: You got it brah.
*Rolling her eyes* Keshia Chante: Okay Mannie, so what about Zing?
Mannie: Oh Yeah, well not too long after he got there. We ended bumping into Amy Zing, now of course I introduced myself like the gentleman that I was...
*Shaking her head* Keshia Chante: Really Mannie?
*Displaying a look of shock* Mannie: What?
*Waving her finger* Keshia Chante: Now you know that wasn't how it went down.
*Siding with his co-host* Bow Wow: Yeah Brah! Because that's not how I remember it, but go ahead brah.
*Smiling* Mannie: Like I was saying, I was the innocent person in all of this. See now My Uncle Charlie on the other hand, he wasn't because decided to come at her the wrong way. See all I was trying to do was make some jokes, but this guy...
*Chuckling* Keshia Chante: Yes!
*Giving her the side-eye* Bow Wow: Come on Kesh, leave that man's Uncle alone.
*Shrugging it off* Mannie: Nah it's cool, I mean he was a jerk. So I don't mind if you feel that way Keshia or if anyone else does. Although, I don't apologize for anything that happened after he disrespected her.
Bow Wow: Really? *Scratching his temple*
*Shaking his head* Mannie: Nope!
*Displaying a look of confusion* Keshia Chante: But what about Amy?
Mannie: Yes Keshia, what about Amy?
The interview begins to get a little intense, as Mannie's once calm voice goes up a few notches.
Mannie: Do you think when she tried to mangle my Uncle in that car, that I honestly gave a hell about her well-being?
Keshia seems like she is about to answer his question, when Mannie cuts her off again.
Mannie: Hold Up! Hold my phone, They use to never want to hear us!
Everyone breaks out in laughter, as Mannie makes a inside joke with a song lyric.
*Holding her stomach* Keshia Chante: Oh my gawd, you're so stupid.
Bow Wow: Yeah Brah, you're a fool for that. *Checking his ear monitor* Wait a minute, I'm getting a word from the back that we're running out of time.
Everyone in the crowd begins to start booing.
Keshia Chante: Awww Bow, we were just getting started too.
Bow Wow: I know, I know Kesh, but Mannie's agent just told us that has to catch a flight.
The crowd continues booing as Bow Wow tries to calm them down.
Mannie: Hold On Yall! I still got something for yall, so that I can make it up to you.
Bow Wow: Yeah that's right, because your boy "Young" Mannie is supplying two lucky audience members with RassleMania tickets and a all-expense paid trip to Toronto.
Keshia Chante: That's not all, because everyone else is going home with a pair the new 'Too Good To TRU' sneakers from Adidas.
The crowd goes crazy as The Trio rises up from there seats, right before Mannie makes his last announcement. Meanwhile Jacinta & Alec are dumping and passing out shoe-boxes to everyone from the balcony.
Mannie: Now before I leave here, I just want everyone here *Pointing at the crowd* and out there *Pointing at the camera* to know that yall can be whateveer yall want. Now I know it's cheesy to say that, but honestly though. I want yall to always remember that, because I grew up in one of the grimiest places in DC and now look at me. *Flexing* I'm just flexing!
Mannie makes another inside joke as everyone cracks up again. Yet, Mannie brings it all back in.
Mannie: Seriously though, I don't care who or what anybody tells you. You can do anything and I mean anything...But all you have to do is keep grinding and keep dreaming. I love yall, Peace!
The scene fades to commercial as 'The Main Attraction' says his goodbyes to the hosts; just before he joins the crowd in celebration, while the house DJ takes them to break.
Currently
The finally opens up for the last time from The Hazelton Hotel (Toronto, Canada). Where 'The Main Attraction' "Young" Mannie Romero has locked himself inside of their private movie theater, as he's been replaying the same match. That match that Mannie's been watching intensely, seems to be an oso-familiar one. Because it's the same match from the 2013 March 4th edition of Meltdown, where Mannie had lost his North American title to Warren Peace.
So we creep in on the scene closer, we can see Mannie looping the same part over & over again.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Harris: Where did that come from? Both men are pulling out all the stops.
West: Warren feels this in his grasp, but what’s he gotta do to put it away?
Warren grabs the leg of Mannie and steps over looking for the Figure Four! Mannie fights it off, but Warren eventually locks it in. He holds it on for a good long time and Mannie is looking like he’s gonna tap. Uncle Charlie hops on the apron and the Ref sees it and runs over to him JUST before Mannie taps out! Warren screams at the ref before breaking the hold and screaming at Charlie. Warren runs at Charlie who pulls the ref inbetween them and Warren CLOBBERS the ref sending him out of the ring and down hard.
Harris: Warren just BLATENTLY attacked the ref! Disqualify him!
West: PLEASE!
Warren turns around into a kick to the gut from Mannie who hooks him for a suplex and then turns it into the MANNIC ATTACK! He locks the hold in for a good while before flipping over and kneeing him in the head hard a few times.
West: There is no ref and Mannie sees Blood in the water here!
Mannie hooks Warren and pulls him up for a DEATH BY MANNIE! He celebrates to Boos before going to make the pin. He notices the Ref is still out and orders Alec to roll him in the ring! He does so and Mannie pulls the ref up and leans him in the corner, slapping his face to get him to come too. When the Ref finally comes too, Mannie gives him some instructions and then turns around!
Harris: LOOK OUT!
Warren is there and hops up on Mannie using his momentum to land on the second rope. He pulls Mannie up and LEAPS OFF WITH THE PEACE MAKER!
West: He just DROVE Mannie’s head into the mat from the second rope!
He covers.
ONE

Harris: NO!
West: NEW CHAMP!
Paige: WINNER of this match and NEW NORTH AMERICAN CHAMPION….. WARREN PEACE!
Warren is handed the NA championship as the crowd goes ballistic. He kisses the title and celebrates on the top turnbuckle. Mannie is helped out of the ring by Charlie and Alec and to the back.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mannie freezes the video as he looks to be staring off into space now, but that doesn't stop him from speaking his mind right now.
*Breathing Heavily* Mannie: One Year...Five Days...Twenty-Four Hours, 25 seconds and countings.
Mannie stops his blank expression, as he takes a sip from a bottle of Red Gatorade. He then turns around to face the camera, as he now displays a face of heartache.
*Wiping his mouth* Mannie: That is exactly how long it's been, since the last time that I was a champion... *Staring back at the video, then back at the camera.* Which is something that has haunted me every night, every night since I lost that belt to Warren Peace. *Shaking his head is disbelief* I lost to Warren Peace of all people... *Pulling his hair* What the hell happened to me that night? *Staring back at the video, while breathing more heavily* I had it all...The title, the GM backing, the Main-Event, and I even had the whole APW roster on notice as well. *Staring back the camera, as he wipes his face* But something went wrong that night, something caused me to fall off... *Pressing his tongue inside his cheek* Well, whatever it was that made me fall off. I need to extract and to remove it from my life immediately, before it costs me everything I want...*Nodding* And what I want people is that North American Championship again!
Mannie uses the remote control beside his chair to click off the video screen, as gets up to face the camera directly.
*Scanning around the room* Mannie: See I'm not stupid people, I already know that the odds are stacked against me. I know that no matter how much that I try to sugarcoat, it still won't change the fact that nobody wants to see me walk out as The North American Champion. *Rubbing the point of his jaw* But you know what though? That's cool with me, because I've been facing adversity for my whole life. *Rolling his shoulders*
Mannie closes his eye as he slips in a deep thought.
Mannie: Yeah! There have been so many times in my life that I've been told "No", that you would've thought that I was on my 3rd mortgage. *Smiling while his eyes are still shut* Shit! I could go far back as my childhood, when I was a kid running the DC streets. I was really wild back then, but even more than that I was violent! Hell, I remember that was quickest way to piss me off back then, hell if you had told me "No". Then you surely would've been found on the DC local news by 10. However, that was the old me thought but oh how I've grown up... *Rubbing his hands together* I've mananged to turn my life around, despite all of the statistics that were pushed on me. *Nodding* That's right I should be dead or in jail right now, but I'm not... *Shaking his head* Nah Homie, see because I MADE IT!. *Laughing* Yeah Bitches! I made it, so if you think I'm afraid of going to war with anybody? *Squeezing his eyes tight even closer* Then, you got me all the way fucked up!
Mannie swings out his arms as he starts to feel it.
Mannie: I've been through more shit, then you could even relate too. So don't expect for me to not go into RassleMania gung-ho, because that's the only way I know. I've been to lowest of low, but I've been also been to the highest of high. See I don't care about Amy Zing & Robina Hood making idle threats, I mean would you? Hell I can't even take they're names seriously, let along they're threats. Like let's be serious for a second... *Rubbing his palms back together* The last time I checked Amy Zing has nothing to gloat about, see been sitting on that title for at least most of her reign. Plus, she has only beaten me once in her whole career. I will say it again Amy, you have never beaten me when it counted! So maybe you got your little revenge that one match, but then what...*Shrugging* Did it really satisfy you? Did it make you whole? *Smirking* Nah Amy; of course it didn't, because you're sore about it over a year later. So all that tells me is that I OWN YOU! That's right Amy, I own you and I will be owning your ass all the way to victory. *Clapping*
Mannie eyes open up a bit, but not quite all the way as he keeps talking.
Mannie: So where does that leave us? *Pondering* Oh Yeah! I almost forgot about Robina "Never Was-Never Will Be" Hood, the woman who will never ever be able to fill my shoes. I mean now it was cute effort Robina, but let's be honest. You were no where near as good as a champion that I was on Meltdown, because when I was the champ. I-Broke-Records! I elevated that show from a upstart brand to a bonafide contender against Overdrive & Asylum. I'm talking about newspaper arcticles, magazines, TMZ, and the shabang too. They were all covering my reign as champ. Hell it's a known fact that I was the 'The Most Watched North American Champion in APW History', but again I ask you Robina. What did you accomplish as the North American Champion? Mediocrity, Stale Match-Ups, Drop Ratings, and most off all Failed Expections that you could never live up too! So tell me again what qualifies you to win back that championship? Oh that's right Robina, you have a victory over Buckson Gooch! *Clapping* Bravo Robina, Bravo!
Mannie can't help but smile ear to ear.
Mannie: So tell people, what's one more match? I mean the way I see it, I ain't got nothing to lose. *Pondering* Yet, then again on the other hand I have everything to gain. So I'm actually digging the odds right now, because if I was a betting man. I wouldn't dare bet on "Young" Mannie, because he has a slim chance in hell of winning. I mean that's what I would do, but then again I'm not a betting man. *Smirking* Nah! I'm just a underdog who is willing to risk all for one night, so if you ask me? I know who I'm betting on, but the better question is... *Finally reopening his eyes* Do you?
To Be Continued...
