Light it light it, puff it puff it, pass it, pass it
(moving on to better things)
Just sit back and relax one time, clear your mind
'Bout to send me back to my old ways
Know what I'm saying
(Talkin' Bout)
I've been puffing, rolling up
Cop a lot and pourin' up
Plus my niggas know the plug
A generation's thrown on drugs

London: Shit I’m ready, y’all ready.
The scene opens up inside of London’s Miami Condo, the APW Cameramen are shown setting up the equipment for London’s shoot, London makes his way from the bedroom and into the main sitting area where he prepares for his shoot, he then walks outside on the balcony and sits down on the couch.
London: I can’t even believe I’m doing this shit again, but oh well its worth it. APW re-opening its door for a reunion show. You already know I had to be apart of it, hell I was putting wrestling to the side for a bit so I can focus on this law degree.
London winks.
London: Just passed the bar bitches so understand this wrestling isn’t something I need, its something I want to do.
The cameraman motions for London that he’s ready.
London: Damn, I thought we was already filming. I’m happy I wasn’t talking that much shit then it would have been a waste of words.
London pauses.
London: It’s already people doubting my return to the ring because of the amount of time I’ve been gone but like I said before this isn’t nothing new, I always take my time away from the ring to accomplish other shit besides wrestling, but these dudes have to realize one thing that wrestling has always been apart of my life, apart of my blood so it doesn’t matter if I was gone ten days or ten years, I’m still going to beat ass!
London reaches over on the table and grabs a piece of paper, he looks down at it and back up at the camera.
London: I can’t wait to get to North Carolina and see what this crowd is about, I’ve been there a few times doing a few shows here and there but this is different. I remember when I first signed with APW and everyone thought I was just another face that wasn’t about shit, but that changed after I stepped in that ring and showed off, shaming some of the other wrestlers, they didn’t think little ole’ London could bounce back after his hiatus but you can’t stop something you breathe into your soul everyday. Wrestling has always been my life, always been my number one, that shit runs through my veins.
London laughs.
London: Mr. Maverick, it’ll be good to square off against you in the ring. We both don’t know too much about each other but what we do know is that we both want to win this match, no titles involved just pride. I wishing you all the luck in the world Chris because you’re going to need it, I want this match to go down in APW history as one of the best matches ever. And I’m calling all the shots, I’m bringing all the tricks I have up my sleeve to win this one, it’ll be a hurricane running through North Carolina and that hurricane is called Hurricane London. I’m ready to hit the “Carter” on this dude, top it off with Brainwashed and cover you 1...2...3!
London takes a deep breath, he reaches in his pocket pulling out a rolled up piece of paper, resembling a cigarette.
London: Hope y’all don’t mind, but then again we are in my crib.
London flicks his lighter, lighting up the rolled up paper and taking a hit.
London: Chris don’t take this the wrong way but this match for you is just an appearance, I’m sure with the 2 or 3 fans you have out there, I’m sure they’ll be happy to see you make an appearance but they’ll be disappointed in the outcome of the match. This match belongs to me, and I don’t see it going any other way. I’m sure you’ve had your wins in the past, hell you might be actually good in the ring but until that day comes when we face each other, my mindset is set on me winning and that’s that.
London laughs.
London: I remember being approached by APW and being asked to be involved with the reunion show, I couldn’t say “No.” I brought something different to APW, I brought a whole different style and a breed. What gay nigga you know out here in this ring making moves like I did, or like I am.
London pauses, rolling his eyes.
London: No One! And that’s not shade, that’s speaking the truth. It’s like a taboo or something when it comes to gay men and wrestler, majority of the straight males think it’s an opportunity for us to cop a feel but understand this we not thinking about that. Maybe it’s y’alls insecurities or who knows what the deal is but understand not every gay dude is going to think your cute, hell not all gay dudes are going to “WANT TO FEEL SOMEONE UP” inside the ring, but I never had to worry about that shit, I never had to worry about that chit chatter when it came to me wrestling because everyone knows I was always serious, I was always about business. So I’m putting the warning out there right now Maverick, don’t let this little gay dude fool you. I’m not worried about what you working with or how you are in the bed, my main focus is winning, so don’t come at me with the gay jokes or the bashing because I won’t have it, it’ll only piss me off more and you already don’t want to see me mad, picture me PISSED OFF.
London smiles.
London: Chris I wish you all the luck in the world, I don’t know your history or the background you come from, don’t really give a fuck forreal. All I know is come prepared, come with those boots laced up and a determined mindset because you're not going up against an easy target, your going against someone with history, crazy history. Hell I’m even thinking about bring my friend with me too.
London reaches down on the side of the couch and pulls out a pipe wrapped in barbed wire flaunting it towards the camera.
London: All my true friends remembers what this is, I ended careers with this Pipe back in my NLWF days and with this being a reunion show, why not go out with a bang and cause a little drama.
London laughs placing the pipe back down on the ground beside him, he jumps up from the couch dropping the mic that was attached to his back pants on the table.
London: I’m good.
London walks back into his condo leaving the cameramen outside allowing them to straighten up and to get ready to leave, the scene fades back inside the condo where London is shown chasing after Anthony who is running throughout the house.
London: I’M NOT PLAYING NIGGA.
London chases Anthony all the way into the bedroom where the two tumble and fall onto the bed, Anthony squeezes on London’s ass while London tries to reach in Anthony’s basketball shorts.
Anthony: If you want the dick just asked for it nigga, you don’t have to do all this extra shit to get it.
London: Trust me it’s not that, I know you got my phone in your pocket and I want it back, why you playing with me right now?
Anthony: You had fly all the way out here and you think I’m going to sit back and watch you play on your phone while I’m here, nah sir it don’t work like that. You can get it back after we have this talk, this shit been a long time coming.
London rolls his eyes while removing his hands from Anthony’s short, he falls back onto the bed staring up at the ceiling wondering to himself what they needed to talk about, in London’s mind he kind of already knew but he wanted to avoid that talk and focus on something else.
London: Do we have to do that now? I’m kind of enjoying you being here and I feel like if we open up old wounds then shit will hit the fan.
Anthony: If that’s what has to happen then so be it, shit is about to get real between us and I just want to make sure we are on the same page.
London lets out a huge groan, letting Anthony know that he’s annoyed.
London: Listen yo, I’ve always had your back, even through all those times you did me fucking wrong I still stood beside you. I’m not getting excited about this relationship, well wait let me rephrase that. I don’t want to get my hopes up because at the end of the day you still love that shady bitch Anna and I just know how you can be, your a fucking flip flopper and your really not concerned about anyone else's feelings but yourself.
London pauses.
London: Or the bitch you fucking at the moment, but it never seems to be about how I feel. I don’t want to talk about this because I feel like such a bitch when it comes to you, and I’m a man.
Anthony: True! I apologize for my past, I can’t change that. My head was so crowded with lies from that hoe that I didn’t see anyone but her, and nigga you have to realize you we’re the first dude I ever fell in love with, I wasn’t checking for no ass, at least no nigga ass and when you came along and switched up on a nigga, it was all so new to me. I didn’t know how to react, but once I saw how deep you got and how ridiculous I was acting, I knew I had to make some changes.
London: Don’t you think it’s a little too late?
Anthony: If I have to fight for this relationship then I will, no matter how long it takes.
Anthony leans over kissing London on the cheek.
London: Yea! Yea! I guess.
London wipes his face but in a playful manner.
London: Actions speak louder than words, so we’ll see if you're still singing the same tune next week, we both know how you like to switch up on a nigga.
Anthony: Still holding the past against me huh? I can’t blame you though, I did run some game on you for the longest time.
London: That shit was more than just game nigga, you was played all the games you could on me but I’m smarter now and I’m not going for that shit. After that nonsense I went through with Ryan Hall, I promised myself I would never give my FULL SELF to a nigga and even though we have history, I’m still a new person, a better person at that.
Anthony: I feel like you're about to give me some big speech or something.
London: Shit I just might, Lord knows you need to hear it.
Anthony: I’m just trying to enjoy the moment, it’s been months since we’ve been in each others presence.
London: That’s the thing that gets me, now that you're ready you want me to be all on board but I’m sorry, this time around it won’t be that easy.
London pauses, he rises up from the bed and sits on the ledge.
London: I’m sorry babe, I just can’t be 100% in when I know for sure something is going to happen that is going to push us further back in the past, it always does.
Anthony: Anna has no way of getting in contact with me yo, I told you I cut that bitch out of my life and forreal this time.
London: I’ve heard this all before, but like I said actions speak louder than words, I won’t play your fool this time around Anthony, I just won’t. I can drop you like a bad habit and move on without any hesitation, I’m doing so much better now and I just can’t lose sight of that, especially over some confused ass nigga.
Anthony: Alright, well I’m not trying to go back and forth, so we either doing this or we not.
London: Ah, don’t be so offensive. I’m just guarding my heart that’s all, we’ve been back and forth for what 3 years now and I just don’t want shit to be repeated, that’s all.
Before London could say another word, Anthony grabs him pulling him back on the bed.
Anthony: So let’s make up.
Anthony starts to slide London’s shorts off placing his hand on his backside.
Anthony: Still got ass I see.
London laughs while Anthony starts caressing London’s body, the scene fades to black.

APW Media Room
Sit-down with London Carter
APW Media Room
Sit-down with London Carter
The scene opens up inside of the APW Headquarters, London is shown along with a few other APW Superstars inside the huge establishment, the scene fades back to London who is sitting inside the studio in one of the chairs, he reaches for his headset and places it on his ears.
APW: Welcome back to the APW Reunion Special, we’re taking the time out to sit down with some of the fellow APW stars discussing the upcoming Reunion Show and what they’ve been up to since APW closed. Right now we have the opportunity to sit down with one of APW’s rising stars London Carter, welcome London or should I say “Welcome Back.”
London: It’s great to be back, it’s great to sit in this studio and catch up with everything that’s been going on.
APW: When word go out that APW was having a reunion show, I looked on the call sheet to see if I saw your name and at first I didn’t, so I think me and a few other people got a little worried.
London laughs.
London: Well you should have been worried, I don’t think the show would have been that great if I wasn’t involved. But I was happy when APW reached out to me to be on the reunion show, ha it wouldn’t be a show without me.
APW: Still the same London, very cocky and confident.
London: I feel like you have to be, it’s not me being cocky, it’s just me speaking the truth. During my days in APW I held my own, I made a name for myself and people saw how hungry and serious I was. With me being apart of the show I can show people that I still got it in me.
APW: Before we jump into the show, what have you been up to since APW closed it doors?
London: A little bit of everything to be honest, I just finished getting my Law degree, passed the bar and everything so that’s been a focus these past few weeks.
APW: Do you plan on opening your own practice or what is the plan with that?
London: I haven’t really made a decision yet because it just happened, but hell I wouldn’t mind doing that, it would be more money for me.
APW: What about wrestling? Was APW the last place you wrestled for or did you wrestle in a different company?
London: My contract was exclusive to APW when it was opened, after APW closed i kind of just backed away from wrestling and did my own thing. I did a couple matches here and there for Pride but it was never anything long term, after APW closed I just wanted to focus on shit that didn’t involve wrestling.
APW: Since APW closure word on the streets was you we’re done with wrestling for good.
London: That was the plan, but wrestling flows through my blood so I could never be DONE with it, breaks here and there won’t hurt but being done, nah that was never the plan. I don’t think i’ll ever be done, maybe when I’m like 90 and on a walker but as for now, Nah!
APW: On the show you're facing Chris Maverick, which personally i think is going to be a tough match, both of you guys have history in the ring and I’m sure with this being a special event, both of you will be fighting hard to win, can you tell us what you’ve done to prepare for this match?
London: I haven’t really done anything to prepare, I just finished signing the contract for the match to even happen, but I’ll do the usual and that’s train my ass off. Anytime I have a match whether important or not I always find time to get my ass in the gym and train, learning new moves and just bettering myself.
London pauses.
London: I would hope Maverick does the same, I got a lot of accomplishments under my belt and a lot of love for this sport, with this being the reunion show and the importance of this match I’m sure both of us are gunning for that win but sadly Maverick will fall short because this match belongs to me.
APW: During your time away from the ring, you also got involved into Reality TV or what we like to call sometimes “ Trash TV” what made you want to do reality TV?
London: Ha its funny you ask that because I never wanted to do reality show, my friend Y’layna Bryant at the time had an idea and I ran with it. I wasn’t supposed to be on the show, but in all honesty who would have watched it if I wasn’t. The people that appeared on the show in my book we’re nobodies, well i can’t call them nobodies but we will say no one knew who they were.
APW: So they brought you on to guarantee ratings?
London: I guess you could say that, but I would never put down the show or what it brought me. I look at anything I do as an experience and to be honest I felt like doing the show would be something different, it was something I’ve never done before and the exposure it brought me was good.
APW: It also kept you in the news.
London: I will say that.
APW: On the show, at the reunion and even on the final season you we’re involved in altercations that we’re out of this world, the fighting, the back to back drama.
London: Ha, what would a reality show be without the drama?
APW: So how much of that was staged?
London: To be honest none of it was, I wasn’t friends with a lot of the people on the show and some say it was because of my ego but it was more to the story then that. I don’t think my ego or my attitude played a part, i think it was more about what I was being paid compared to what the others were being paid.
APW: So money played an issue?
London: Doesn’t it always? You can’t help when other people are jealous of your success.
London winks his eyes.
London: Now that’s friendly shade.
APW: Friendly Shade?
London: It’s hard to explain, but after what I said some people will probably call it Shady, so that’s why I said its friendly shade. I’m still friends with some of the people on the show and I wouldn’t want them to take it the wrong way.
APW: We get it, but London I wanted to thank you for coming to sit down with us, you were definitely one of the people we were interested in following up with and to get your reaction to the Reunion Show.
London: I appreciate you wanting to take the time out and sit with me, I wasn’t apart of APW long so I didn’t get the opportunity to really make an impact but I did enough to get noticed, and I was good enough to be invited back to the reunion show and I promise you guys that I won’t let you down.
APW: Goodluck in your match against Chris and all your future endeavors, whether wrestling or not, we all want to see you prosper and be successful.
London: Thank you!
London places the headset on the table, the conversation continues off camera as the scene fades to black.

APW: On the show you're facing Chris Maverick, which personally i think is going to be a tough match, both of you guys have history in the ring and I’m sure with this being a special event, both of you will be fighting hard to win, can you tell us what you’ve done to prepare for this match?
London: I haven’t really done anything to prepare, I just finished signing the contract for the match to even happen, but I’ll do the usual and that’s train my ass off. Anytime I have a match whether important or not I always find time to get my ass in the gym and train, learning new moves and just bettering myself.
London pauses.
London: I would hope Maverick does the same, I got a lot of accomplishments under my belt and a lot of love for this sport, with this being the reunion show and the importance of this match I’m sure both of us are gunning for that win but sadly Maverick will fall short because this match belongs to me.
APW: During your time away from the ring, you also got involved into Reality TV or what we like to call sometimes “ Trash TV” what made you want to do reality TV?
London: Ha its funny you ask that because I never wanted to do reality show, my friend Y’layna Bryant at the time had an idea and I ran with it. I wasn’t supposed to be on the show, but in all honesty who would have watched it if I wasn’t. The people that appeared on the show in my book we’re nobodies, well i can’t call them nobodies but we will say no one knew who they were.
APW: So they brought you on to guarantee ratings?
London: I guess you could say that, but I would never put down the show or what it brought me. I look at anything I do as an experience and to be honest I felt like doing the show would be something different, it was something I’ve never done before and the exposure it brought me was good.
APW: It also kept you in the news.
London: I will say that.
APW: On the show, at the reunion and even on the final season you we’re involved in altercations that we’re out of this world, the fighting, the back to back drama.
London: Ha, what would a reality show be without the drama?
APW: So how much of that was staged?
London: To be honest none of it was, I wasn’t friends with a lot of the people on the show and some say it was because of my ego but it was more to the story then that. I don’t think my ego or my attitude played a part, i think it was more about what I was being paid compared to what the others were being paid.
APW: So money played an issue?
London: Doesn’t it always? You can’t help when other people are jealous of your success.
London winks his eyes.
London: Now that’s friendly shade.
APW: Friendly Shade?
London: It’s hard to explain, but after what I said some people will probably call it Shady, so that’s why I said its friendly shade. I’m still friends with some of the people on the show and I wouldn’t want them to take it the wrong way.
APW: We get it, but London I wanted to thank you for coming to sit down with us, you were definitely one of the people we were interested in following up with and to get your reaction to the Reunion Show.
London: I appreciate you wanting to take the time out and sit with me, I wasn’t apart of APW long so I didn’t get the opportunity to really make an impact but I did enough to get noticed, and I was good enough to be invited back to the reunion show and I promise you guys that I won’t let you down.
APW: Goodluck in your match against Chris and all your future endeavors, whether wrestling or not, we all want to see you prosper and be successful.
London: Thank you!
London places the headset on the table, the conversation continues off camera as the scene fades to black.

The scene opens up at Dulles Airport, London is shown grabbing his luggage from the baggage claim and making his way towards the “Pick Up” location inside the airport. London makes his way through the double doors and jumps into the “Uber” he ordered for his ride home.
London’s Thoughts
To be honest I was a little nervous about stepping back in the ring, not scared but nervous. APW’s competition was always a problem, and I knew going into this match it wasn’t going to be easy. I didn’t know what Maverick’s background was looking like, just like he didn’t know what mines looked like and sure I could sit back and hype this match up and talk about how I was going to beat his ass but at the end of the day that still didn’t stop me from being nervous. My last match with Shark didn’t end the way I wanted it too and after that match I took my time away to focus on some other shit, like school and my relationship at the time.
Which was a fucking mistake.
but that’s beyond the point, I was ready to move past that match with Shark and focus on this reunion show and this match with Maverick. I wanted people to know that London still had it in him, I wanted people to know that my time away from the ring wouldn’t affect how bad Maverick was going to lose, I wanted people to know that I was coming to North Carolina ready to fight, ready to destroy, and ready to conquer.
But my personal life was still in shambles, I had fucking Anthony King popping back up like everything was cool, I hadn’t talked to this nigga in months. The last time we held a conversation it ended up being a bloody mess along with some tears but I never once thought that this nigga would find his way back into my life, and with this show coming up I didn’t need any distractions.
None at all.
Before the show I needed some time away, just to kind of clear my head so my homegirl Daniela invited me to DC to party with her and even though I should be training, I told myself a night of partying and just letting loose wouldn’t hurt anybody.

The scene opens back up with London sitting in the backseat of his “Uber” ride, after a couple minutes of conversation with the driver, London’s phone ring and it’s his sister on the other end.
Brooklyn: You in DC?
London: I just got here, I’m on my way to the hotel right now to rest up.
Brooklyn: I was thinking about flying out there too after I’m done filming my scenes.
London: I can’t believe you're doing another movie though, that shit is amazing.
Brooklyn: Well since I’m not wrestling, why not do some other shit? And you already know I’m a sucker for horror films so when the script was given to me, I had to jump on it.
London: I don’t blame you.
Brooklyn: But I wanted to call you and wish you luck just incase I don’t make it out there, I’ll definitely be at the match though but I know with our schedules it would be hard for me to see you beforehand. But I’m really trying to finish filming early so I can come to DC and party with you.
London: If you can’t, I understand. But I appreciate the “GOODLUCK” and I want you to know I got this, this match is mine.
Brooklyn: You are a star bro, remember that.
London: Thank you sis.
Brooklyn: And be careful taking those uber rides, niggas are crazy these days.
The two laugh while continuing their conversation, the scene fades to black.
