The Jay Transfer: Breaking Matches!

Jay Phillips: Jay Phillips here with the J-Transfer! We’re a few hours away from the next event, and here’s the latest card additions! Meinrad von Brakkus will be taking on Apollyon. Here’s what Meinrad had to say:

Meinrad: NRWL management talked to me earlier this week, and it wasn’t the good kind of talk. So, to get them to change their tune, I’m calling out Apollyon. I can chop down that redwood, and show the NRWL that I still belong here!

Jay Phillips: Nick Belhor had this to say:

Nick Belhor: First off, let me address that gnat, Michael Armstrong. You somehow think that because you were gifted a match, and was also able to defeat a failure, that you are now some sort of headliner now? The only headline you’ll be known for is the shortest career in the NRWL, when Abbadon ends yours! And going back to that failure I mentioned, Meinrad. You are a waste. While NRWL management show us time and time again they are completely incompetent, they are correct in having suspicions about you. But then again, if they had any REAL managerial insight, you would have been gone already. They are a joke, and so are you.

Jay Phillips: Sounds like more hangs in the balance of that match that just a win/loss record! Up next, Doomsday takes on Johnny Young!

Doomsday: I’m still not officially on the roster, but I’m almost there. And I think taking down Johnny Young—which I WILL do—will be the last hurdle I have to clear to earn my roster spot. Johnny, you seem to take some sort of pride in being a kind of backstage bad-ass. I guess being out in the ring is proving too tough for you. But that’s OK, I’ll play by your rules. Let’s rumble somewhere else in the building—your choice. Just let me know where to be, and I’ll show up and deal you a beatdown!

Jay Phillips: Johnny Young, never one to not have a retort, responded with this:

Johnny Young: Awww yeaahh! The Star Player totally gets where you’re coming from. You’re upset because clearly nobody ever showed you any attention in life. Whereas me, I can’t stop getting attention from everyone! Unfortunately for you though, you’ve got my attention. And if a Grade-A beatdown is what you’re asking for, I’ll be happy to provide it. See you in the ring! Don’t forget your glow sticks, freak! Yeeaaahhh!!!

Jay Phillips: Has relative new kid on the block Doomsday bitten off more than he can chew in Johnny Young, who excels in backstage brawls? This will be an exciting one to watch! Up next, Pedro Muchaco calls out Slugger Malone.

Pedro: *pedro is relaxing in his Jacuzzi (still still wearing his mask) with a hot little Latina at each arm* Ay! Sloogur Mah-lohwn! I saw chu get set on fire last show. Ha ha ha! Bet that deedn’t feel good, deed it hombre? I got somtheeng else hot for chu, man. And no, I don’t meen one of theese chicas. I meen me! Theenk chu can take the heet? I don’t theenk so! So get out of the keecheen!

Jay: Slugger, never backing down from a challenge, rebutted with this.

Slugger: Listen here, runt! You may be quick and always flying, but you know what else does that too? These! *holds up his dukes* Too bad for you though, these do more damage, too. I’m gonna make that mask of your be permanently imbedded into your face! Bring it!

Jay: Something is telling me for some strange reason that that match is going to be the sleeper match of the night. And finally, Marty Anderson reported to find this chunk of bark outside his dressing room door. He sent us this pic.

*piece of bark shows two stick figures. One with an orange beard, and one with blue shorts. The stick figure with the blue shorts has an X scratched into the bark over it.*

Jay: Marty, like the rest of us, take this as a challenge from Ingoyama. Marty had this to say:

Marty: This nutjob pulls out a lucky win over Slugger, and thinks he’s ready to take me on? If it was a *real* match, Slugger would’ve won easily. In fact, he already did that. Any chump can toss someone over ropes. But pining shoulders to the mat requires skill, quick thinking, and killer instinct. Ingoyama, you messed up bad challenging me. So I’m going to make you learn from your mistake the hard way! Whether you love me, or you hate me, I’ll make sure you respect me. And you will.

Jay Phillips: There you have it. Once again, it promises to be a heck of a show! Don’t miss it!

The Most Amazing Man Alive

*Jay Phillips is backstage with Mikey Armstrong. Mikey has his chest puffed out and a confident smile on his face.*

Jay Phillips: Mikey Armstrong, you came into the NRWL recently and have managed to make a strong early impression. Despite the win, Rex Anarchy claims that he let you have your victory over him. How do you feel about that?

Mikey Armstrong: Jay, I saw the tape afterward. It's obvious that he was just standing there while I pulled down the briefcase and won the match. You know what though, he knew he couldn't beat me so why bother trying? That's why he did what he did. Hey, I can't blame him. Why take the bumps if you don't have to? When you know you're beat, you know you're beat. Regardless of what he says, the end result is that I beat the NRWL Champion. I should be champion right now.

JP: It was a non-title match, Mikey.

MA: A non-title match, yes, but the champion lost to me, the only undefeated wrestler in the NRWL! I think that says it all right there.

JP: What?!? You've only been in two matches since being signed! I'd hardly consider that a major winning streak!

*Mikey points a finger to Jay's face and smiles.*

MA: I knew it. I knew you were going to say that! That's why you will want to listen closely. I've beaten Meinrad von Brakkus on two occasions. One of those occasions, I sent his tag team partner to the unemployment line. I beat the NRWL Champion. Both matches were brutal and I managed to come through them even stronger. Jay, I am the most amazing man alive! I am a juggernaut! In fact, I have decided to prove that to everyone beyond any shadow of a doubt.

JP: The most ama-- what? *Jay shakes his head.* Ok. How are you going to prove you are, ahem, "The most amazing man alive".

MA: And a juggernaut. Don't forget that. I will prove it by challenging Abbadon to a match! That will prove that I am the real deal!

JP: WHAT?!?! Are you insane?!

MA: Jay, there's nothing to fear. I have been training. See these guns?

*Mikey flexes his biceps.*

JP: Well, they're big, sure, but you're an average size here in the NRWL. Have you seen Abbadon in person? He's a mountain!

MA: But he'll fall to Mikey Armstrong! Trust me. There's no one bigger than Abbadon and when I beat him, no one can deny my amazing abilities!

JP: Well, actually, he's not the biggest. He's the same size as Apollyon.

MA: Nope. That bag on his head gives him a size advantage.

JP: That's completely irrelevant. It's just a bag.

MA: You may see it that way but I see it as me going the extra mile.

JP: That makes no sense at all.

MA: Give it a minute. I'll let it sink in. Now, I must be off. See you at the show tomorrow, Jay. You're in for a treat when you see my match! It's going to be great!

*Mikey walks away smiling with his head held high. Jay watches him walk away and then looks into the camera.*

JP: Fans, pray for that man. I don't think he has any idea what's about to happen to him.

Pure Sport

*Mark Blood is hitting a punching bag in a training room when Bruno Kowalski walks in. Bruno puts down his gym bag and starts stretching for an exercise. Mark looks over and sees Bruno. He stops, wipes the sweat off his brow, and walks over to Bruno.*

Mark Blood: Hey Bruno, got a minute?

Bruno Kowalski: Oh, hey Mark, what's up?

MB: Well, you know what, there's been a lot of action lately and some big names stepping up to bigger heights but, you know, I feel like the traditional mat wrestling has taken a back seat the last few weeks. I saw Johnny Young is taking some kind of hardcore approach now. What a moron. Honestly, I think someone needs to keep the core, pure sport of it all intact. You seem to know your way around the ring. Why don't we show the fans what an actual wrestling match can be?

BK: You and me in the ring? Yeah, you know I'm always up for a good, technical wrestling match. Let's do it!

MB: Good. Good. Alright then, bring your best. Maybe you'll learn a thing or two.

BK: Whoa... excuse me. Maybe I'll learn a thing or two? I've been holding my own pretty well so far. I don't think you need to worry about "teaching" me anything. In fact, maybe I'll be the one schooling you.

MB: Haha, yeah, alright. We'll see. I'm bringing one hundred percent to this one. We'll see who schools who.

*Bruno stands up and both men stare at each other face to face.*

BK: Yeah, I guess we will.

*After a few moments, Mark Blood nods and walks away, looking back once on his way out. Bruno watches him as he leaves. He curls his lip slightly and shakes his head before continuing his stretches.*

The Golden Age of Slamnation

*Jay Phillips is standing outside of Slam Jackson's dressing room door.*

Jay Phillips: Ladies and gentlemen, we are just twenty four hours away from the big match between NRWL Champion Rex Anarchy and the man who is challenging him for that title, Slam Jackson. Rex had some very strong words about the NRWL and the fate of the championship that he currently holds. If Slam loses this match, Rex Anarchy has vowed to take the championship hostage and refuse to defend it, leaving the NRWL without a championship title, killing it's long history. The pressure is on for Slam Jackson. Can he step up and save the title? Let's find out.

*Jay is about to knock on the door when it opens suddenly. Slam Jackson is standing at the door, looking very serious.*

JP: I was just about to knock!

Slam Jackson: Jay, life is too short for knocking. There are important matters to discuss!

JP: Yes, in fact, I'm here to speak with you about your match. There is so much pressure on your shoulders. The NRWL fans are looking for you to come through with a big win. How do you feel? Are you prepared?

SJ: Yes, yes, we'll get to that, but there are other matters to discuss!

JP: Ok.........

SJ: Jacob, I - I can call you Jacob, right?

JP: Well, it's Jason, actually.

SJ: Oh. Well Jason, we need to talk about something bigger than the NRWL championship. We need to talk to about the party that happens after tomorrow's match to celebrate me WINNING THE NRWL CHAMPIONSHIP WHERE'S THE SLAMNATION AT I WANT TO HEAR YOU!!!!!!!!!

*People start cheering from all over. Jay looks around, unable to find anyone.*

JP: What the...? Is that piped in through speakers or something?

SJ: I don't know, Jay. I don't really ever think about it. I'll call for the Slamnation while at home and hear them all throughout the house. The Slamnation is everywhere, Jason. It's an unstoppable force that cannot be stopped and that's why I'm already planning the celebration. You see, that Rex Anarchy is a bad, bad man. He wants to ruin the NRWL legacy and the company with it. But what he doesn't understand is that he isn't fighting me, Slam Jackson, no, he's fighting the whole Slamnation! We won't let him succeed.

JP: So you are confident in your victory tomorrow?

SJ: Jason, I have to be. There can be no room for failure. Rex Anarchy kicked open a bee's nest full of Slamnation and it will mercilessly sting him and send him home crying. This company has gone long enough with a champion who doesn't want to even be the champion. It's time the NRWL gets a champion that is deserves!

JP: I am sure all of your fans, the Slamnation, and NRWL fans everywhere, are behind you. We'll see you tomorrow. Good luck, Slam Jackson!

Scotty's Rant

*scene opens with Jay Phillips running out the headquarter front doors to the parking lot. Up ahead, about to enter into a limousine, is Scotty “The Body” Paris*

Jay” Scotty! Wait!!

Scotty: What do you want, Jay?

JP: I’m just wondering what your next move is, since you were denied the #1 contender spot by--

SP: --Since I was ROBBED that mop-head Slam Jackson?? I tell you what, there’s no such thing as justice anymore. I was screwed over by a corrupt ref in a match against Jackson, and THEN, to add ironic salt to the wound, he goes and wins the Fatal 4-Way for #1 contender. It makes me sick Jay. It really, really does.

JP: Well, some people would say—

SP: Look Jay, try to wrap your head around this *grabs Jay by his collar and drags him over to a car parked in the “Employee of the Month” parking spot. Ugh, what a filthy jalopy!

JP: But that’s--

SP: Anyway, let’s say you and I have a 10 million dollar bet on a game of Tic-Tac-Toe. *Scotty draws a Tic-Tac-Toe board in the dirt on the hood and draws an X in the upper left corner.*

JP: But I don’t have 10 million--

SP: Your move!

JP: *draws an O the left column’s center cell*

SP: *immediately draws two X’s in the middle and lower right and then scratches a line through the three X’s with his ring* TIC-TAC-TOE!!! I win! You owe me 10 million dollars!

JP: What?! That’s wasn’t--

SP: Wasn’t what? “Fair?!” Damn right it wasn’t fair! But don’t worry, I’ll give you a chance to win that 10 million dollars back, except you have to play against 2 other people besides me. How does that sound? Sound like a crock? Well, for once in your life, you’d be right! And that’s exactly what happened to me! But are amends being made? No! Everyone just keeps hatin’ on Scotty Paris. It seems that because I’m wealthy and successful, nobody can put their prejudice against me aside and do what’s right. So now, instead of someone whom everyone can look up to as champion, we’ll either have Rex Anarchy, a man who apparently forgot he joined a wrestling federation and not a political movement group, or Slam Jackson, a glorified back-alley grifter who doesn’t even have a real first name. “Slam?” Are you kidding me? It’s more like “Slum” Jackson! Ha! That’s brilliant! I’m gonna start calling him that!

JP: I’m sure you won’t win any fans calling him that...

SP: Oh, you mean the citizens of “Slumnation?” Yeah, they’re on the same level as Jackson: Trash. While they’re worrying about if they should spend their minimum wage paycheck on food, clothes for their kids, or booze, I’m having my pool filled with fjord water flown in off glaciers from Svalbard! Now, excuse me Jay, I have business that is actually important and meaningful, unlike yours. So this match better just happen already. So Slum Jackson can stagger back to the dumpster that regurgitate him and so Rex Anarchy can stop crying like a Kindergartner throwing and temper tantrum because no one is paying attention to him because....let’s be honest here....no one cares. Then, we can move out of these Dark Ages of the NRWL and start a new era, ushered in by ME!

*Scotty's cell phone rings*

Hold on a sec, Jay. Hello? ....Yeah? Tell him I have to cancel. I can't make it. ........Well if he's mad about it, tell him to blame Jay Phillips, he's the one who's holding me up!

*Scotty tosses his cell phone down a nearby storm grate*

SP: Royce Gracie might be looking for you. Anyway, as I was saying, I need to turn this company around. Unfortunately, I since I'm being denied a title shot this week, I'll get some practice in by beating up on Slum Jackson's cardboard box-mate, Ash. If it wasn't for him busting into MY interview last time, that whole Fatal 4-Way nonsense wouldn't even have happened in the first place! So Ash, prepare yourself...by taking a bath. And then, prepare yourself to just be another stain on the canvas that I'll have to clean off my boot.

*another cell phone rings. Scotty reaches into his back pocket and answers that cell phone*

SP: Hello? OK, I'll be right in.

*Scotty launches the cell phone into the parking lot, where it smashes to pieces upon impacting (and dinging) a car's hood*

SP: Gotta go, Jay. More important matters than you. MUCH more important.

*Scotty gets into the limousine and the chauffeur shuts the door behind him, revealing a calligraphy “F.F.” emblazoned on the door. The limo speeds off while Jay is left with a puzzled look on his face.*

The Toughest Around

*Storm Harrison is backstage talking to a caterer*


Storm Harrison: Yeah, I love to cook. I made a really great marinade for some chicken. You just let the chicken marinate for about a day, put it in a roasting pan with some onions and garlic and cook it for forty minutes or so. Fantastic!

Caterer: You'll have to give me the recipe. I'd love to try it out. I'm always looking for something new.

SH: I'd be happy to. I - *Storm is suddenly hit from behind. He falls into the catering table, tossing food all over the floor. He is grabbed by the hair by Johnny Young who throws Storm face first into a wall. Johnny quickly grabs a fire extinguisher and stands there until Storm starts to get up.*


Johnny Young: Get up, you little punk!

*Storm gets to his feet, dazed. He stumbles forward and hits a stairwell door. It pops open slightly. Before he can move away from it, Johnny blasts Storm in the side of the head with the extinguisher. Storm falls backwards through the door and tumbles down the stairs. Johnny walks through the door and looks down at Storm, twisted and unconscious at the bottom of the flight of stairs. Johnny looks back at the camera and smiles.*


JY: Just had to do a little house cleaning. Sorry Storm but you aren't going to fit into Johnny Young's NRWL anymore. You're too nice. You aren't mean enough. I've noticed something lately. Things have gotten awfully rough around here. A lot of no holds barred matches, steel cages, tables, chairs, ladders, sledge hammers, and even backstage brawls. So far, I've handled myself pretty well. It's time to refocus! As the star of the NRWL, I feel it is necessary to lead this new wave into the future. Under my influence, I can ensure this more ruthless style of wrestling goes the way it should. I am the toughest around. I've proven it. You know what though? There's someone else who thinks they can hang in the hardcore realm. I'm talking about Slugger Malone. We'll see what you've got, Malone, because you and I are going to meet each other in an extreme rules match. Anything goes. We'll see who is the toughest!

*Johnny looks back down the stairwell.*


JY: Hey! Someone get maintenance over here. There's a pile of trash at the bottom of the stairs.

*Johnny walks away. Storm is seen at the bottom of the stairs, still motionless.*

Anarchy Reigns

*Jay Phillips is standing backstage with NRWL Champion Rex Anarchy.*

Jay Phillips: Rex, big night two weeks ago at the last NRWL Event. A lot of the talk following the show involves you and the NRWL Championship. I'd like to get your thoughts on your upcoming title defense, but first, I'd like to ask you about your match against Mikey Armstrong. At the end of the match, you decided to just stand and watch Mikey win the match. Why?

Rex Anarchy: Why? I think the question should be, 'why not?' That match was a joke like all the other matches I have had here in the NRWL since I won this title. Every week I've come out here and given no reason to even try. Non-title matches, special stipulations, tag team matches. There's only been one title defense since I won this title and the guy who won that match wasn't even awarded the belt! I grow tired of being the man holding onto a meaningless championship.

JP: Meaningless championship?

RA: That's right, Jay. Meaningless. I have been doing some thinking and I figured it all out. When I won the championship tournament, everyone here was new to the NWRL. All but Johnny Young. The, ahem, Star Player. I think Young dropped the ball for the NRWL and didn't win the tournament like he was expected to. Since I've won it, the company has been waiting for the right person to be the "face of the NRWL". They made sure I kept the belt until they found the right person. They don't like me. They don't want me. That's why, until now, the NRWL Championship has been played down. Most of the excitement and build up is in the mid card. They've been waiting for the right person to step up because the money machine will be fueled greatly by merchandise sales of T-Shirts featuring the champ that everyone wanted!

JP: What?!? You're delusional! Are you really suggesting that this is all just a conspiracy for selling promotional material?

RA: Not delusional at all, Jay. I'm simply right. Look at who the number one contender is. Slam Jackson. The leader of the Slamnation. You can't tell me that's promotional gold. If he were the top dog in the company, you know NRWL would be making money hand over fist. Why didn't Apollyon get another shot at this title? Doesn't seem to have a whole lot of personality. Why not Bruno Kowalski? Great in the ring, dull on the microphone. Ingoyama? He's a solid performer but they wouldn't have a clue how to promote him. Pedro Muchacho? Their core audience can't even understand what he's saying. You expect them to follow his lead? Marty Anderson? He'd do fine but they like him where he's at, shepherding some other guy. Johnny Young? I'm not even sure why they still have him around after he failed them in the tournament. No, NRWL wants a champion that they can market easily. That's why Scotty Paris, Ash, Slam, and Mark Blood were given the number one contender opportunity. They are all faces that would look good in promos and they already know what to do with them. It's not hard to promote Scotty Paris when they've already got experience with Flawless Fred. Ash is like countless other 'superheroes' from wrestling history, NRWL can just clone the Mike Blood process with his son, and Slam Jackson is just a goofy guy who the fans seem to like. Remember LaZ0r? People loved that guy. They could push Slam the same way.

JP: You sound bitter. Maybe you should - *Rex quickly shoves Jay into the wall, knees him in the stomach, and throws him off camera. He picks up the microphone.


RA: Enough playing by the rules. Here's how it goes down. NRWL, you better hope that Slam Jackson is your savior. If he wins, he'll make you a lot of money. But if he doesn't win? Well, if he doesn't win this match, I'm going to bring everything tumbling down. I will take the NRWL Championship hostage and use it as a symbol of chaos. There will be no title defenses. It will bring everyone back to base level. There won't be a number one contender. There won't be a championship for little Scotty Paris to cash in a title shot for. Don't go issuing a new one either. All the history of the NRWL is in this championship. If you replace it, you effectively wipe out history. Then, with nothing to aim for, the wrestlers will simply leave and the NRWL will collapse. Anarchy will rule supreme. Slam Jackson, you better hope you have the best night of your life in that ring when we meet. If not, you damned this company and all of its fans.

*Rex drops the mic and walks off. The camera pans over to him walking away. Jay Phillips is on his hands and knees trying to get up. Rex pushes his boot against the side of Jay's head, knocking him back over. Rex looks down and shakes his head before walking out of the room.*

Mike Blood Leaves NRWL

As previously announced on his final "Sweat & Tears" column, Mike Blood has decided to part ways with the NRWL. Mike has been a part of NRWL since its inception and is a member of the Hall of Fame.

Mr. Sunderland had the following to say about Mr. Blood's departure.

Mike will be missed here in the NRWL. He and I have worked together from the start of Masters of Wrestling back in the early 90's. He always says that he wouldn't have had a career without me but I think it is the other way around. MoW needed great talent in the early days and without him, I'm not sure we would have made it. When Mr. Charles and I started the NRWL, I knew I needed him here to get the ball rolling. I can't thank him enough.

I understand his reasons for leaving and wish him the best. I know that what comes next for Mike Blood will be great for wrestling fans everywhere. I know I am looking forward to it. Thank you, Mike. For everything.

The NRWL wishes Mike Blood the best of luck in his future endeavors.

Sweat & Tears: A Fond Farewell - A Look Back

In the autumn of 2003, I was offered a job by my old Masters of Wrestling boss, Mr. Sunderland, to wrestle for his new company, the New Revolution Wrestling League. He started it with his old friend, Super Century Strong Fighter owner, Mr. Charles. The two of them ran wrestling promotions in the 90's and I was a part of the rich history they built. I couldn't turn down the opportunity to get in the ring one last time.

My run in the NRWL was short and mostly uneventful. My only real success was winning the tag team championship on the night of my retirement. Regardless, I never looked at my NRWL run as disappointing. I knew, even then, that something big was growing. Having MoW and SCSF together as one promotion was a wrestling fan's dream. Now, nearly eight years later, I can say with complete certainty that it lived up to that expectation I had.

When Mr. Charles and Mr. Sunderland said they were starting things up again earlier this year, I was excited. This season has offered us some of the best talent we could ever ask for. It's hard to really pick out weak links. I am excited for what is coming up in the months and years ahead. The NRWL has really found their footing and I believe it is the best it has ever been.

With that said, it is with mixed emotions that I am writing "Blood and Tears" for the last time. Immediately following my retirement from the ring, I spent time working behind the scenes for NRWL and have been here ever since. Well, there was that brief period where I came back into the spotlight as the manager of John Fraust! It has been a very fun and rewarding time for me here in this company that I love but there are some personal goals I have had for some time. I think that now is the right time to pursue those goals so I am leaving the NRWL to try my hand at something new.

I would like to thank Mr. Charles and Mr. Sunderland for the opportunity to be a part of this great wrestling promotion. Without them, I would not have had the career I did. I'd also like to thank the wrestlers for putting on great matches week after week. The NRWL is lucky to have talent like you! Finally, I'd like to thank you, the fans. I have always said the best fans in the world are here and you prove it time and time again.

I hope to see you all again in my future endeavors, but until then, keep your shoulders off the mat!

New NRWL Website

In an effort to improve the online experience, NRWL has decided to launch a simpler, more straightforward website. This new site will feature all the news and action you enjoyed previously but is now available in one single stream of content. If you'd like to view the News or Action section separately, you can easily filter them using the links on the right side of the page.

As of this posting, you will notice that several of our previous services are missing. The photo album that is updated after every event is in the process of being migrated to a new service that will be available soon. Until the migration is complete, you can still access the old album at this location. Previous NRWL Action! posts are currently unavailable on the new site, however, they are in the process of being migrated over time. Previous posts of Mike Blood's Sweat & Tears and Flawless Fred's Flawless Facts blogs are in the process of being migrated into the site as well.

Wrestler profiles will be recreated from scratch and should be available soon. You will be able to access them all from a menu on the right side of the page.

Thank you for your patience during our move to this new site. We hope you will enjoy the new format.

No matter what the match is, you know that it will be solid and you know that I’ll be the one walking out of the ring. Bruno is a talented guy and I have a lot of respect for him.

I may be from Texas, and I can take the heat, but I’ll be damned if I’m going to get lit on fire!

Backstage Bedlam!

*Jay Phillips is in the interview area backstage*

 Jay: Hi everyone! Jay Phillips here! I'm backstage here with Scotty "The Body" Paris! Scotty....tough loss to Slam Jackson at the last event.

Scotty: "Tough?" "Tough???" More like "unfair!" What was that crap?? Somebody tell that ref to go back to Sesame Street and learn that 2, not 3, comes after 1!!!

Jay: I think I have to agree with you this time, Scotty. Even from my viewpoint, the count seemed rather quick. But, he's human, and like the rest of us, makes a mistake every now and then.

Scotty: Save the diplomatics, Phillips! This was an outrage, and I fully expect to be compensated for this!

Jay: What are you proposing?

Scotty: I want an immediate title shot. That's the only fair thing to do.

Jay: A title shot?!? But--

Scotty: That's right. They owe me—

*suddenly, Ash walks onto the scene*

Scotty: Hey! Get out of my interview! The soup kitchen is in the back of the building, bum!

Ash: Did I hear you wanted a title shot?

Scotty: Oh, it's Ass-sh. It's more that it's owed to me, than my wanting. But yeah!

Ash: I think you already have your shot in that briefcase.

Scotty: What?!? Are you suggesting I use my earned Money In the Bank title shot to right a wrong that was done to me? Why don't you wash your hair because the layer of oil and dirt is stopping air from getting to your brain!

Ash: Here's the thing, Scotty. Champions and championship contenders are usually .....hmm.... how to put it? They're usually people who actually win matches! With the exception of your ladder match victory--which I attribute more to Rex and Apollyon preoccupied with beating each other and losing focus rather than you actually winning in a definitive way--you've just been getting the crap kicked out of you. Some #1 contender material you'd make!

*Suddenly Slam Jackson jumps into the scene*

Scotty:  What is this?  A cardboard box convention?  Now where did this hobo come from???

Slam:  If there’s one man that the Slamnation wants to see holding the Championship strap, it’s this guy right here *Slam points to himself*  AIN’T THAT RIGHT, SLAMNATION?!?

*hollers and cheers are heard off camera, with an especially loud one directly in the camera from the cameraman*

Slam:  *to Scotty, Ash, and Jay* The Slamnation population is growing rapidly, people.  And the good citizens want a trophy they can be proud of!

Scotty:  How about one of those derby’s with a top punched out of it?

Slam:  Scotty, for all the money you have, you can’t seem to buy a win or a break.  So until you get one of those, let the big boys talk about the important matters.  Go dip your toes in your pool, or maybe soak your head in it.

Scotty: I don’t believe this…

Ash:  Heh heh…soak his head.

*Mark Blood now enters the scene with the other 4 men*

Mark:  I hear you guys talking about #1 contender status, and I have this to say.  Ash, you’ve been on quite the streak, so maybe you deserve shot.  Slam, you’ve been making an impact since day one, so maybe you deserve a shot.  Scotty….you haven’t done anything except be loud.  You don’t deserve anything.

Scotty:  Hey!

Mark:  As for me, I had a rocky start.  But you know what?  When just about everyone gave up on me, I dug deep, believed in myself, and turned it all around.  I have heart.  And THAT is a championship quality.  And if anyone knows anything about heart, it’s someone named “Blood!”

*After a few seconds of silence, Ash turns to Slam*

Ash:  He’s got a point.

*Slam pinches his chin with his thumb and index finger, juts out his lower lip, raises his eyebrows, and nods in agreement with Ash*

Scotty:  What the--?  This is insane.  I don’t care anyone pumping Blood.  This interview, this whole segment is about ME and the injustice that I suffered at the last event.  What’s wrong with everyone?!?

*The 4 wrestlers all start bantering with each other.  Jay ducks under to the front of the crowd*

Jay:  Four men all vying for the rank of #1 contender.  How will the NRWL management decide who is worthy of the title shot.  Check back soon as I’m sure an announcement will come within a day or two!  This is Jay Phillips signing off!

Backstage Bedlam!
