Welcome to the jungle...
(Fade to an American flag waving and flapping on a windy day… Fade out and fade in on the White House… Fade out and fade in on the Playboy mansion… But that fades out quickly fades into a split level, somewhere near the beach… From its terrace, the view of the blue waves crashing on the rocks below, its golden sands and sunny blue skies make for a picturesque poster …)
RICO: Very amusing and entertaining Justin… That’s some funny s(bleep)t; I would lay off the cigars though, especially those cheap ones… Now Justin, what have I done to you for you to call me a sissy, you little *****… I mean I thought we were there, I guess I went a little too far, trying to get that blowjob huh!? Hey Katie, screw Justin, let him fire you, I’ll hire you and you won’t be doing any damn housework… I wouldn’t take that Katie, you are a beautiful and intelligent woman unlike your slave master over there… We’ll treat you right baby… Call me… Oh yea, as I was saying… Justin, why all the hostilities amigo, Hell I was just giving your dumb unsuspecting ass a heads up… I like you Justin, there’s a lot I admire about you… I have told Dakota and we both agree that, deep down inside, you’re really nothing more than just another asshole disguised as a jack ass… But let’s get back to the business at hand and allow me to enlighten your ignorant derriere about a thing or two… ‘Cause Justin, if there’s one thing I know about, is that I know a thing or two about a thing or two… Now I’m only telling you this because it is so damn obvious that you don’t have a freaking clue as to what is really going on and I want to even the odds for you a bit… And let me start off by giving you a piece of sound advice… You should be nicer to the hired help, and stop buying those cheap ass cigars, they’ll be the death of you… But hey, what was I thinking, come Zero Hour…
(Pauses as he takes a drag from his cigar)
RICO: It’s kind of ironic how they came to call this event “Zero Hour”… Simply ironic isn’t it Justin!? Check this out Justin, at Zero Hour; that is exactly what you’ll be… A big fat freaking “ZERO” and that’s not blowing smoke up your ass Justin!!! But hey dude, I like your style… I really admire a man who can think and chew bubble gum at the same time… I mean, you know that I know that you know; that you don’t stand a freaking chance against Dakota, so in your desperation you figure, you’ll play the oral deception card in the hopes of that somehow, it’ll fog Dakota… “Cause that’s all it is with you Justin… Nothing but a lot of smoke… Dakota’s not fooled by it amigo; haven’t you figured that one out yet!? I guess I was wrong about you dude, I actually thought that you could think and chew bubble gum at the same time… I have to hand it to you there buddy, you had me fooled momentarily… Now I am confused a bit with something you said, maybe you can clarify it for me… Tell me Justin, what in the “blue hell” does it matter where Dakota does his little promos from, we’re not trying to impress anyone, but what’s your excuse huh Justin!? It’s neither here nor there for Dakota, he gives a rat’s ass about impressing anyone, you either like him or you don’t… “Training in a real spot”, what makes you think he isn’t Justin, are you that dense!? He knows perfectly well what a ring is for, “Mr. mack daddy”… “INDY MATCHES”!? This is professional wrestling, my feeble-minded friend, and yea we “watched” your match against lil Johnny, and were not impressed in the least, nothing new in a dumb ass vs. asshole match Justin… If you seen one, you seen them all… Now if you don’t mind Justin, I’ll address the other two morons involved in this little quest for gold… Are you guys even out there!? FOR CHRIST”S SAKE!!! SAY SOMETHING!!! ANYTHING!!! Anything is better than listening to this stammering, and stuttering village idiot… You guys don’t know what torture it is to have to constantly listen to Justin’s nonsensical bull crap over and over… Come on guys toss me a freaking bone here…
(Suddenly and without warning our transmission feed is interrupted and we go to a MCW commercial… The MCW logo is shown as we also begin to see Dakota as he walks in front of it…)
DAKOTA: Day in and day out, all I hear from you Justin is nothing more than innuendos and asinine remarks, but that’s typical of asswipes like yourself… Your fear of the unknown has you stammering and stuttering on and on… Rico has really messed with your head, your ranting is very obvious of that… You don’t have a damn clue as to what is actually going on do you Justin… Well no matter, nothing I say will make any difference with you, regardless of what I say or do; you’ll never be content, you’ll find yet another asinine method to try to shoot me down… I totally understand just how you feel, it’s not your fault that you’re nothing more than a pretentious pompous ass who actually believes that talking out his ass will make a difference… But you BLINKED Justin!!! And so freaking what if you’re rich, or so you say… You could be blowing Hugh and that’s his mansion and not yours… Who knows, it’s quite possible that you and him are two freaking closet queens… Who knows, eh Justin!? (Laughs) Does it really matter where I do these damn stupid promos!? And tell me something Justin, why should you care about how and when and for that matter who I train with!? After all you’re supposed to be all that and a stick with s(bleep)t on it, why should it matter one way or another whether I train or not and with whom… As for the dingy ring, hey I like it, I like the atmosphere, I like how it reminds me of where I have been and why I don’t want to go back, the past and the present… And at present Justin, you’re the little pebble the MCW has thrown in my path… Just damn great… First a damn no-show and now this… A freaking five minute workout!!!
(Suddenly and without warning our transmission is again interrupted and we are back to Rico, who is smirking as he takes another drag from his cigar…)
RICO: So where was I when the lightning struck!? Oh yea, hey Justin, I know I said I was done with you for now, but rewinding your last sit-com, I could have swore I heard you say that you want to break every bone in my body!? Is that what you really meant amigo!? Damn, I thought me and you were cool… But if that’s the way you feel about me… Well what can I say but, BITE ME JUSTIN!!! There isn’t a damn thing you can do about it!!! Any time you want a piece of me, I’m not a hard man to find… I’ll be the one standing next to the man who’s going to rip your ass off and ram it down your throat… And I don’t blame him, talking all that crap you’re talking… YOU, my slowwitted amigo, are full of s(bleep)t… I have a good mind of telling Dakota to let me take his place in kicking your ass… But he’s just as stubborn as you are, but unlike you, he backs his s(bleep)t up… I’ve seen your “Indy” matches Justin, if that’s what you want to call them, they looked more like prison scenes where you dropped the soap and, well you know the rest… Don’t ever try to get in my crosshairs Justin, you certainly don’t want to get me pissed off at you… That’s the last thing you want to do son; hell I’ll introduce your ass to your brain son… Be careful what you wish for dude, ‘cause with me you’ll get it!!! But wait a minute, you are getting at least one of your wishes… You wanted to get b(bleep)h slapped, and you are… At Zero Hour Justin; Dakota is going to zero in on your punk ass, and beat you like a government mule… He’s been known to do that, just ask around dude… You remind me of that one legged man in an ass kicking contest or the idiot who took a knife to a gunfight… Or is it more like the idiot who stuck his hand into the fire thinking he wasn’t going to get burnt!!! And if that’s the case, then you’re going to get more than just burnt my friend!!! You’re going to get incinerated… You’re going to get blown away; you’re going to get that last leg rammed up your ass…
(Looks at his watch, takes another drag and smiles…)
RICO: Well Justin, it looks like my five minutes are up… 5, 4, 3, 2, 1…
(Again the transmission is interrupted and we are back to Dakota… Smoking a cigar himself, a duplicitous grin plastered across his face…)
DAKOTA: Comprende amigo!? Don’t mess with Rico, he’ll hurt you real bad dude… He’s no joke, him one mean mofo… (Laughs as he takes a drag and blows it in front of our camera…) And that’s blowing smoke up your ass dude… But I’m not blowing smoke up your ass when I say that I am going to beat your ass… So tell me, how does it really feel to that you’re a dead man walking and the only thing you got to counter with is to talk out your ass Justin!? And I don’t want to hear any more of that incoherent cackling; try talking with your mouth instead of your ass for a change, maybe that way you’ll make some freaking sense…
(Transmission is yet again interrupted and we are back yet again with Rico…)
RICO: Are you dizzy yet Justin… (Laughs) Well when Zero Hour comes around, you’ll be more than dizzy, you’ll be hurt, broken like some freaking bronco and will be left feeling a whole lot of pain… I know that for a fact Justin… Like I said before, I know a thing or two about a thing or two… But Justin, talk about posers, you freaking faitour... I do hope you know some Houdini tricks, ‘cause that’s about the only way you’re going to escape the ass kicking Dakota is going to give you… And don’t think I’ve forgotten about you Insurgent, you shell shocked imbecile… So you heard the “Pandorian” crap before huh!? Well guess what Neanderthal!? It’s BACK!!! All rolled up into one; DAKOTA!!! And if it is true that you have heard, then you should know that they were no joke and neither is Dakota… Yea, that’s right I do most of the talking, you see my dimwitted little soldier boy, Dakota is not a talker, he’s a doer… Oh by the way, don’t underestimate Dakota’s resilience and fortitude and don’t make the same mistake Justin is making… We all know the excuse for that there… Lack of, and then some… (Laughs and takes a drag…) But seriously Insurgent, I’m kind of hoping that you come out the winner of your match, but don’t underestimate the Judge man either… He seems to be the strategist of the group and you know those types, they actually believe that silence is really golden; it’s either that or he’s out there somewhere, caught up in a game of chess… But I’m glad to see that you also didn’t get caught up in Justin’s crap… Yea, we saw right through him also… But we have to hand it to him though, he does talk a lot of s(bleep)t; I mean in its own sort of way, it can be entertaining… Something like, “As the world turns”, everyday a new episode, a new drama… I kn…
(The transmission is yet again interrupted, only this time it was not a planned one as we fade in back to Dakota, only Dakota is not there any longer… Standing in front of the MCW, this time is a crew member who appears nervous…)
CM: Err, Mr. Dakota has left and I err, err …
(The crew member’s headset comes alive)
CM: Err, yes Mr. Rico he did leave… Yes sir, he did leave a message, but I don’t think that it would be appropriate for me to repeat it in front of the camera; I could lose my job…
(Transmission ends and fades back to Rico, who is on his cell phone apparently talking to Dakota… As we fade in on him, he motions us to wait…)
RICO: Dakota, listen to me, it’s in the contract… I know, I know; you hate doing these dumb ass promos, but like I said, they’re in the contract… Yes, I do know that you’re not any freaking entertainer or politician, nor do you like chess that much… Yea but, wait Dakota I know how you feel, but think of it… No, no don’t do that Dakota… Okay, I understand… Yea sure, okay I will… Hello!?
(It appears the conversation between Rico and Dakota has ended… Rico closes his phone, and ponders for several seconds before he focuses back to our camera…)
RICO: Damn… Dakota doesn’t make anything easy… How in the hell am I supposed to tell the MCW head office that… That’s right guys, he doesn’t make anything easy for anyone; but you’ll all get to experience that first hand soon enough… The Judge just might be doing the right thing by staying silent, he’s a wise man no doubt; why antagonize Dakota, even more than he already is… Why incur more pain and punishment than you can already handle; yea that must be it… Damn good move Judge, I see the chess player is playing his game.. I tend to agree with Dakota where you are concerned, he feels the same way about these promos, yea he also believes that talk is cheap… But he does know also that it can be used as a smokescreen… But you two star-strucked twits are not making any damn sense… I mean what the hell does current events and global politics have to do with wrestling… And for that matter what the hell does it matter where these promos are conjured… Back alley, studio, broken down ring, in front of the MCW logo… It’s all irreverent, even this mansion crap means nothing… But what does mean something is the fact that you two are listening to what is being said and not taking into effect what hasn’t been said… Confusing huh!? Well deal with it whichever way you can, ‘cause like Dakota said, you BLINKED!!! But none the less, you most likely will come out and spew some more of that unintelligible bulls(bleep)t… You’ll once again remind us of how rich you’re supposed to me and just how tough you can be, yea berating the hired help really takes a lot of balls Justin… (Smirks) Just remember this dude, Dakota isn’t the hired help; and he definitely knows what a ring is for… Oh by the way Insurgent, I was the one that mentioned that “Pandorian” crap as you so eloquently put it, not Dakota… Just like I said before you two don’t have a freaking clue, you’re going on assumptions… That’s like assuming guys and you know what happens when you assume… (Looks at his watch and smiling he takes a drag, exhales nonchalantly…) Well it looks like it’s about that time again, so adios amigos…
(Fade to black…)
