(Cid Phoenix and Danny Crane arrive at Los Angeles, after bidding Droskarr farewell. A wild night that culminated into finding themselves without identification and the authorities in Fort Lauderdale almost arresting them as well, the trio [Cid, Danny & Droskarr] found themselves stowing away on a boat, riding in the back of trucks, and basically having to use just about any means necessary to arrive to their destinations. And now, as they awaited a friend to come and help them with cash and transportation, Danny and Cid's tolerance for the situation - and eachother was beginning to boil over.)
Danny: So, any idea on how we ended up in Fort Lauderdale with no I.D., no cash and not even a freaking' pot to piss in?
(Cid glares at Danny Crane for a moment, then speaks.)
Cid: How the hell should I know, Mr. Know-it-all! Have you got any idea about how we're just about going to miss the opportunity to beat the Red Shield Mafia once and for all one of APW's biggest pay-per-views! We're stuck here in Los Angeles!
(Dan smirks.)
Dan: Cid, Rasslemania is APW's biggest pay-per-view! And as far as me asking how we got into this situation, I was only doing so, because I wanted to see if you remembered anything prior to waking up on a beach in Florida!
Cid: Look man, the only thing I remember is we met up with Droskarr in Vegas for drinks, and we were all celebrating my victory over Matt Ward. Then I met this blonde.. Next thing you know, I find myself waking up on a beach with you and Droskarr in Fort Lauderdale with no money, and no I.D. and the Police Department looking to bust us for loitering! Stupid idiot cops! Go arrest some real criminals!
Dan: Waitaminute... You remember a blonde too? I was with a blonde as well. She was wearing a red dress. She came up to me and said that I was--
Cid (Interrupting): Sex on legs?
(Danny's eyes go wide.. He turns to Cid.)
Dan: Yeah! That's exactly what she said!
(Cid rolls his eyes.)
Cid: I think Drosakrr was duped the same way. We all were. Some chick gave us all the runaround and stole our cash, our I.D. and our phones! And on top of that, the hours getting late and we STILL have to show up in Berkeley for our match! Man, if we end up missing the biggest show of the company, I'll be so pissed..
(Dan's eyes are averted past Cid. He taps Cid on the chest.)
Dan: Well, don't start getting pissed off so fast, look who's just showed up!
(Cid turns around to stare at a barrel chested Hindu with long hair and sunglasses smiling at him. His reaction is instantaneous, as he jumps up on the man, and gets a fierce bearhug.)
Cid: AHMED!!! Wh-What are you doing here?
(The man named Ahmed Vishni looks down at the smaller two gentlemen and shakes his head. Once upon a time, he was a member of the Anti-Establishment who went by the name of Zord.)
Ahmed: Well, Kent called me and said that you guys were in a bind, and needed transportation to Berkeley. He also said that you guys lost your I.D.'s.. So, here I am with replacement I.D.s..
(The giant hands out two envelopes to each of them. Opening them up, they find designer wallets with State Issued Identifications and about a grand in cash inside each wallet to accompany..)
Dan: Dude! We've got I.D. and cash! Sweet!
Cid: Thanks alot, Ahmed.
Ahmed: Hey, you guys are like family. And what are brothers for? But enough about all that.. I'll be helping you guys get as close as possible to Berkely, before I have to head off myself.
Dan: Wait, how far?
Ahmed: Just outside of Berkeley. You'll then be taking these babies with you the rest of the way...
(Ahmed points to a 16 wheeler that has it's cargo doors open. A man waves at Cid and Dan and points inside the cargo truck. Cid starts to drool and Danny licks his lips and nods in approval.)
Ahmed: I figured you guys would like them. Anyway, let's get going, shall we? It is getting late, and if we leave now, you might make it on time for your match tonight!
(Danny and Cid nod in approval and prepare to go into the 16 wheeler, when behind them, Ahmed shouts..)
Ahmed: Hey! Where are you guys going?
(Dan and Cid look at one another in confusion.)
Dan: Aren't we taking this truck?
Ahmed (chuckles): No, man. We'll be taking my ride...
(Ahmed points to a vehicle that is by description, a Hummer/Limousine hybrid. A group of beautiful girls dressed in mid-riffs and short shorts wave at them. Cid slaps Danny in the back of the head..)
Dan: Ouch!
Cid: Just making sure I wasn't dreaming, Dan.
(Ahmed, Dan and Cid all walk towards the vehicle, where Ahmed tells the driver, a red head dressed in a black dress, their destination. The three then enter the vehicle and drive off. Inside, one of the girls holds up a camera at Dan and Cid, who look at Ahmed in surprise.)
Ahmed: Don't you guys have a promo to send?
(Dan and Cid smile as they sit back, surrounded by the girls and begin...)
ANTI-ESTABLISHMENT PROMO FOR RASSLEMANIA:
(Cid and Dan are surrounded by a group of girls as they smile at the camera. Cid begins..)
Cid: Hello APW Universe! I'm Cid--
Dan: And I'm Danny!
Cid: And we are collectively known as--
Both Cid and Dan: The Anti-Establishment!
Cid: Now as some of you who've just joined us may not know, Dan and I made a slight detour in Fort Lauderdale of all places. And we don't know how we got there, seeing as the last thing we seem to remember is meeting with a friend for drinks in Las Vegas!
(One of the girls starts to blow in Cid's ear, prompting a smirk. Danny is busy playing tonsil hockey with another. Cid looks over and smiles, before continuing.)
Cid: So, in true Anti-Establishment fashion, we're rolling into Rasslemania focused and ready to finally settle our score with the Young Mannie and JR Kingston, two members of the Red Shield Mafia!
(Cid shakes his head.)
Cid: Mannie, you brainless idiot! You applauded me in my handling of the Xtreme Champion, Matt Ward last week when I faced him and made him tap out to Quicksand Jesus! But tonight at Rasslemania, it won't be JR Kingston that I put in the hold, it's gonna be you! And I'm looking forward to making you scream like a girl, just before you either tap out, or pass out!
(Danny stops kissing the girl and lets out a laugh.)
Dan: Brainless? Cid, neither one of those dummies can even formulate a sentence without the help of a picture book, not to mention that they smell really, really bad...
(All the girls, Dan and Cid pinch their noses in unison.)
Cid: That's absolutely right, Dan! Those two just couldn't seem to get a clue that in all those times they faced us, they just had to cheat to win! Meaning that not once have those two geniuses managed to pick up a clean win over us! What does that say about them as a tag team? Simply pathetic!
Dan (turns to Cid): Hey, that's okay, Cid. If they want to cheat in a normal match to pick up the victory, fine! But tonight isn't a normal match, is it?
Cid (turns to Danny): No Danny, it's not! Tonight we get to face those two losers in a Falls Count Anywhere Match!
(Dan claps his hands.)
Dan: That's just priceless! So that means, we can use weapons there's no countouts, and no disqualification!
Cid (nods): That's right, amigo! We can beat them mercilessly and take them out without having to abide by any of the rules!
Dan: Wait.. But what about Diamante Valentine? What about that Damien Walker dude? Hell what about Valentine's wife, his Grandmother, or whoever else should try and get into the match? What do we have to face those odds?
Cid (chuckles): Dan, my man..We're the Anti-Establishment! We've always got a plan! Besides, Diamante's probably gonna be too nervous about his Xtreme Title Taipei Match with a frustrated Matt Ward to try and get involved, and as far as anyone else, I've got one or two tricks up my sleeve for them just in case!
Dan: Wow.. Now I'm super-pumped! I can't wait to get there!!!
(Cid leans towards the camera, smiling as two girls kiss his cheeks. He looks directly at the camera.)
Cid: Mannie, you and your girlfriend Kingston had better be ready for a war! Because we're psyched, we're ready, and we're coming for you. And we will--
(Danny shoves Cid out of the way, looking directly into the camera.)
Dan: --Give No Quarter & Show No Mercy!
(The camera feed cuts off.)
(Hours later, just outside of Berkeley)
(The humvee-limo comes to a halt as Ahmed, Cid and Danny all get out of the vehicle and await the truck, which pulls up right behind them. Dan and Cid wait, as two workers, John and Mike exit the truck and go to the back to the cabin, where after a few minutes, the roar of engines can be heard. John exits the back on the truck's ramp on a custom red and white motorcycle that says 'ANTI' on it, and Mike follows driving a red Ferrari with white racing stripes. They pull up and park in front of the hummer/limo and exit the vehicles, walking over to Cid and Dan. John gives Cid the keys to the motorcycle, while Mike gives Dan the keys to the Ferrari. Both Cid and Dan nod to them in gratitude, then turn around to hug Ahmed.)
Cid: Hey man.. Thanks for this.
Dan: Yeah, you totally helped out of a big bind here tonight!
Ahmed: Well, I have one more thing to help you guys out. But you'll find it at Rasslemania. I hope you like it, because I went through hell to get it for you..
(Dan and Cid look at one another. Ahmed smiles and pats them on their backs.)
Ahmed: Hey.. If and when you guys win this one. I'll be heading up towards Canada - your home country. Meet me in Toronto. Coordinates are in the glove boxes of both vehicles. Take care and good luck!
(Ahmed gets into the Humvee/Limo as Dan and Cid wave goodbye to him and the girls, as well as John and Mike, who get back in their truck after closing it up. The truck drives off, followed by the Humvee/Limo hybrid, leaving Dan and Cid with their vehicles on the side of the road.)
Dan: You ready for this?
Cid: Our first Rasslemania ever? you bet I am!
Dan: Cool..Then let's go make history!
(Dan gets into the Ferrari, as Cid hops aboard the Motorcycle. They start the engines and laugh, as Dan yells..)
Dan: Last one there cuts the next promo naked!
(The Ferrari peels out, leaving a trail of black smoke and dust behind, as Cid smiles to himself and revs the engine, screeching off after Danny Crane.)
Danny: So, any idea on how we ended up in Fort Lauderdale with no I.D., no cash and not even a freaking' pot to piss in?
(Cid glares at Danny Crane for a moment, then speaks.)
Cid: How the hell should I know, Mr. Know-it-all! Have you got any idea about how we're just about going to miss the opportunity to beat the Red Shield Mafia once and for all one of APW's biggest pay-per-views! We're stuck here in Los Angeles!
