NEWera Rookie
[ * ]
-5 Years ago-

And your new XCW tag team champions of the world, Steven James and Mr. Sadistic!!!!

-The crowd goes wild as Sadistic and James are handed the tag titles. The hop the guard rail and join the crowd in celebration. Shaking hands, taking pictures, the whole nine yards. After about 15 minutes they finally head back stage towards their locker room.- As they sit there and soak in what they were finally able to accomplish they turn on the tv. Mr. Floyd has made his way to the ring with a microphone in hand.-

This is a very sad day for me and everyone here. For I have no choice but to close XCW's doors for good. Ten plus years of entertainment. Ten years of these men putting on some of the greatest matches of all time, but my child is in the hospital and there is a good chance that he will not make it out. With that being said I am sorry for bearing such bad news. All you guys and girls in the locker room were like family to me. We may have hated each other at times and wanted to rip each other limb from limb, but we accomplished something here that will live on forever. We were one of the best federations around the entire time we were open. Some of the greatest wrestlers to ever live stepped foot in this very ring.

-The crowd in shock stands up and gives Vince a standing ovation.-

Now maybe one day I can re open the doors to XCW, but for now they will remained closed. I hope all of the superstars here continue on in other places, and continue their legacies. I do not wish the closing of XCW to be the last people will ever see of them. I hope the find another federation to entertain fans. To continue on the path to greatness.

-Listening from the back James and Sadistic are furious in a way. They grab their tag titles and head for the ring. They storm down the ramp and slide under the bottom rope. James grabs a mic and begins to speak.-

You can't be serious right now Vin. I am deeply sorry about your son, but there has got to be someone to step in and fill the void while you are gone.

Steven I am sorry. There is nobody I feel can run this place like I did. Last time I tried putting someone in charge XCW almost went to shit. I almost had no choice to close this place 5 years back.

We just won the tag team titles and it seems like it means nothing.

It doesn't mean nothing Steven. Just think, you and Sadistic will be the last tag team champions XCW ever had. You guys will be remembered for running the tag division these last few months. You were finally able to capture gold right before XCW closed.

So? XCW is closing. So all my hard work has gone down the drain. All our work and everything we wanted is being taken away from us right after we win the titles.

It may seem that way Steven, but I believe you finally have what it takes to go on somewhere else and accomplish the same thing you two were finally able to do here tonight. I have seen you grown from a man that started off losing his first six or seven matches in a row to a champion.

It only took me what 5 years?

That does not matter. I have seen such progression in you over the years. I have seen you finally move up the ranks. Not quite at the top of the ladder, but you finally started making moves. I really wish for you and Sadistic to continue your journey as a tag team elsewhere. I promise that I will follow you where ever you go. I will help guide you if I can.

-Sadistic grabs the mic from Steven.-

Vin, Steven is a bit angered right now and I understand where he is coming from. I think he just needs time to cool down. We both appreciate all you have done for us and all you have helped us over the years. We would like to take this time to ask all superstars in the back to come down here and do the same.

-The superstars start making their way down the ramp and into the ring. One by one they all shake Mr. Floyd's hand than stand outside the ring waiting for everyone to do the same. The crowd once again stands up, clapping as loud as they can for Mr. Floyd. After about two minutes the crowd quites down and Sadistic continues.-

You see Vince, you were like a father to many of us. Or a father figure at the least. Guiding us, teaching us day in and day out how to better ourselves. Some of us would not be here right now if it weren’t for you. Some of us might still be working a dead end job somewhere, but you saw the potential we had. I promise you this, it may not be tomorrow, it may not be next year, but you will one day see myself and Steven back in the ring.

I am glad to hear that Sadistic. Just let me know when that day comes and I will be there to watch both of you.

-Floyd shakes Sadistic's and Steven's hand one last time. Now Steven grabs the microphone back from Sadistic.-

Come on everybody. Let's hear it one last time for one of the greatest men alive, MR. VINCE FLOYD!!!!!!!!!!!

-Steven grabs Vince and gives him a big hug as the crowd cheers for the finale time. Floyd exits the ring and heads towards the back stage.-

-Present Day(2 days prior)-

-Scene comes in to Steven and Sadistic sitting inside Steven’s home. Phone on speaker you hear it ring as a man answers.-

Hello?

Hi, is the Floyd residence?

Yes it is, Can I ask who is calling?

-Steven smirks as he has finally tracked down Vince and begins to reply. He looks over at his mantle as his half of the tag titles stills remains there.-

Let's just say it is XCW's last tag team champions calling to say hi to an old boss.

Steven? Sadistic?

Yes. It is us Vince. Just wanted to contact you and let you know we have both finally found a place that reminded us of XCW. That we finally found a place where we believe in time we can once again accomplish what we did 5 years ago to the day.

To the day?

Yeah. Exactly 5 years ago is when you closed the doors to XCW. Now it took us some time, but we finally decided to get back in the ring and see what we still have in our tanks.

Steven, this makes me estatic. You seem to be the only men doing so. I have had no contact with anyone since then. Not a single soul has contacted me saying they joined another federation. I guess they seem to think it is turning their back on family. I am really glad to hear from you guys. Let’s meet up.

Sounds like a plan to us. How about the Hard Rock Café in Times Square?

Sounds good to me. See you guys in a couple days.

-Steven hangs up the phone as him and Sadistic begin to converse.-

Now Steven. Don’t get all mushy when we meet with Vince.

If I recall it was you that shed a tear when XCW closed, all I did was give the man a hug for all that he did for me. So if I may, please don’t cry when you see the man.

Shut up man!

-The two men get up and exit the house. The both get on their bikes and take off for New York.-

-TODAY-

-Steven and Sadistic finally make their way to New York. Fighting through the City’s traffic they pull up in front of The Hard Rock Café as Vince is already there waiting for them outside. All three men shake hands as they head inside and take a seat. A waiter comes up and hands them all menus and begins to speak.-

Hi, welcome to the Hard Rock Cafe. My name is Gregory Maines, I will be your waiter today. Can I start you off with some drinks?

-The three men all look real quick and seem to nod agreeing on the same drink. Steven replies.-

Yeah, we will all just get a Budwieser.

Ok, I’ll be right back with those for you.

-The man walks off as they all begin to laugh. Steven begins to speak once again.-

Did that man just say his name was Maines? As in XCW hall of famer Greg Maines?

It did look like him a little bit, but too young if you tell me.

Maybe it was his son.

-With that being said the man returns with the beers and places them down in front of the three men.-

Just a question. Are you related to former XCW champion Greg Maines?

That douchebag.

So harsh.

Yeah well that man you would legally call my father left me and my mother when I was 15. My mom not being able to work I have to work 3 jobs to pay all the bills. I hope he rots in hell. It seemed to be when XCW closed years ago he just gave up. He gave up on work, he gave up on being a father. He gave up on being a husband. He took off and none of us have heard from him since. Personally I could care less if he was found dead in a ditch somewhere.

I can't believe that. Greg didn't seem like the man to give up. He didn't seem like the man that would let something like XCW closing get to him. We all worked with him back in the day and he was the hardest worker in and out of that ring.

Yeah he was. I guess in his eyes he felt betrayed by people he called family, but shit happens. People move on. You guys seem to have moved on, why couldn't he? Whatever. I am done talking about him. Can I take your orders?

Yeah I'll have the 24 oz prime rib. Medium rare. Baked potatoe and sour cream.

I'll have the herb crusted tilapia with a house salad.

What kind of dressing?

Thousand Island?

And for you Sir?

I'll have a bacon cheeseburger with a side of curly fries.

Ok. I'll put the order in right now and your food should be out shortly.

Thanks kid.

-The waiter walks away as the three men continue their conversation.-

So Steven. Tell me about this new federation you guys have joined.

It's called New Era Wrestling. I joined about a month ago than got in touch with Sadistic and convinced him to join.

As I can see he gladly joined.

Yeah. Well my first few matches have not gone so well. I dropped the ball and sit and two losses. Sadistic on the other hand makes his debut in a dark match at the Pay Per View coming up

Well Steven look at it like this. You have not been in the ring since XCW closed. You have not competed in 5 years. So of course you are going to drop the ball. You have a lot of rust to shake off.

Yeah, you are right. People said in my second match, regardless that I lost, I showed a lot of potential. I gave the guy a damn good run for his money, and they see me being a force here with hard work and motivation.

They are right. It is going to take time before you get back on victory road. It is going to take time before you can call yourself a winner. Now with Sadistic by your side again things could take a turn for the better.

Problem is we are both in singles competition.

That does not matter Steven.

Sadistic is right. You now have a familiar face around again. You now have someone you know will support you. Someone to watch your back. You had nothing here. No one to go to when you were down. No one that knows what you can really do inside that squared circle. Now with Sadistic around, he can light that fire under your ass and get the ball rolling for you.

Same thing I told you Steven!

-The waiter shows back up with the tray of food. He places the steak in front of Steven. The burger in front of Sadistic, and the tilapia in front of Vince.-

Another round of beers?

-Sadistic looks up.-

Yeah kid. Just keep them coming when you see them getting low.

-The waiter walks away as he grabs the empty beers.-

So Vindication. New Era's biggest show of the year. Now I am on the preshow. Against a man by the name of Killjoy. I have heard nothing from this man yet. Not a single word. Nothing even as much as a peep. How am I supposed to prepare for a match against a man I know nothing about?

Steven I already told you. It does not matter what you know of this man. Just train your ass off and give it a hundred and ten percent.

He is right. All you can do is fight your ass off. Keep your eye on the prize and you can and will walk out victorious. I know you have what it takes. Sadistic knows you have what it takes. You just need to start believing in yourself again. When that happens, you will be a force around New Era Wrestling I can see it. I am sure superstars there can see it as well.

Your right Vince. Hopefully with Sadistic around again, that fire will get lit. Hopefully I will get back on the right track and be able to compete here and win on a consistent basis. I just hope I don’t get stuck in that middle card area like in XCW. Or when I finally accomplish something like winning a title that the places closes its doors as well.

From what I have been reading about this place, that will not happen for a very long time. This place seems to have what it takes to be better than XCW was. As hard as it is to say that, it is the truth. Some men there seem to be better than most that ever stepped foot in a XCW ring, and if you can beat these guys than you know you are worthy.

-The waiter sees the beers getting low so he just brings over another round.-

Back to this KillJoy guy. You told Sadistic that you and him were in the same boat. Neither of you able to get the ball rolling, but you did get the ball rolling in your last match from what you told me. You made the Mark Saddington guy pull out every trick he had just to barely pull off the victory. Doesn't that mean something?

-Steven takes a sip of his beer and continues.-

Yeah. He won. I lost, but I guess everyone is right. I have put up more of a fight in my two matches than this KillJoy fuck has. I have the potential to be one of the greats here. With Sadistic by my side, the possibilities are endless. What we can accomplish no one knows.

Me and Sadistic do.

He is right Steven. Now if we ever decided to form a team again we have a tough road ahead of us. The tag team division seems very promising, but come on. If we were able to win titles in XCW we can do it again here. Give it time. Give it patience. We can once again be at the top of the tag team division. Or even if we decide to just be in singles competition. We can still accomplish whatever we put our minds to.

He is right Steve.

Yeah, he is.

-The men finish their food as Vince grabs the check and pays for the bill. They exit the building and stand outside and finish their conversation.-

Look guys. It was great meeting up with you. It was great to hear that some of my former employees are still trying to do what they love. I really hope you guys go on to do great thing in New Era Wrestling. Seeing as I am already in the city, I might as well stick around to watch your guys matches.

-Vince shakes both Steven"s and Sadistic"s hands.-

I"ll see you both at Vindication.

Great seeing you Vince. I'll send you a ticket to the show at your hotel. Where you going to be staying at?

Do not know yet. I'll give you a call later when I pick one.

Ok.

Again, best of luck guys. See you soon!

-Vince hops in a cab as Steven and Sadistic both hop on their bikes. The scene fades to black as they drive off into the city.-
