~*~*~nCw is officially underway. It seems that it was just a few short weeks ago that Lance Ryan made the decision to once again don the trunks and come out of retirement to join the WCF. Fleeting moments since he started out on fire back in the ring, just hours since he became the People's Champion. Now, he finds himself starting over again, fresh, this time in a new federation to him, this time with a fresh and ever present opportunity to become the World Champion again. Lance knows that winning that world title will be an uphill battle, but it is not something that is new to him. He is ready for any and all comers. This time the surroundings are a little more familiar to him, this time he will be unstoppable.~*~*~
~*~*~The scene opens and we see Lance sitting in his wrestling training facility with his brother sitting beside him. The lights in the facility are dimmed, and there appears to be nobody else in the training room. The two men are staring at an empty ring and sitting in silence. Lance is wearing his trademark blue ring tights and no shirt. Matthew is wearing a pair of blue jeans and a black t-shirt. After a few moments of silence, Lance breaks it abruptly.~*~*~
Lance:
I certainly do not miss this part of the business. It seems that there is always a company closing down, and always a company opening. It is stressful to start over fresh somewhere because you need to get used to new management, new wrestlers, and a new way of doing things all over again. I was just starting to get my wings in WCF, I had gold around my waist, I had many a victory under my belt, and I was really starting to make people realize what a star I was. Most of all, the fans were really starting to take a liking to me.
Matt (laughing):
Like you? They were booing the hell out of you every chance that they got. What on earth would make you believe that the fans liked you? Have you started to mentally block out the WCF already? What gives?
Lance:
I was their People's Champion Matt. You don't get a title like that if the fans do not adore you. Those boos were boos of love. Those fans knew that when I came through that curtain, they were getting to be in the presence of greatness. they knew that for those few minutes that I was in the ring they could live vicariously through me and run off of my adrenaline. They knew that I would take them on the ride of their lives and that at the end of the day, I would...
Oh, who the hell am I kidding. I hate the fans. Those fickle human beings come out to see me every week, they pay their money that they earn with their nickel and dime salaries, and they think that I honestly care about them. When I am in that ring, it is a brief moment of excitement in their otherwise dull and redundant lives.
Matt:
Now that is the Lance that I know. I was starting to wonder if the change in scenery had fried your brain. Now, let's talk business for a moment. There seems to be a history for the nCw, and that is not something that I care to get into. All that I know is that this incarnation of the company involves you, and you start off with chance to win the World Title. Your first round match in this tournament comes against guy names Justin Tyme. If that name is a joke, I can tell you at least that he is not. He seems to be all business and is more of a high flyer than anything, but he also has a tonne of technical ability. He is six foot, four, two hundred, thirty-five pounds, and he thinks that he is a rock star.
Lance
Sorry Matt, I missed that, did you say that he isn't a joke? Who does this guy think that he is? Chad Kroeger? Ian Thornley? Adam Gontier? Oh wait, I am sure that he has no idea who those guys are, they would be Canadians, and we all know that Americans have no idea what a Canadian is...even though we produce the best rock stars, and the biggest names in the industry...
~*~*~Matt's face changes a little and he appears to look embarrassed for Lance.~*~*~
Matt:
Ummmm, Lance, I neglected to mention that Tyme is Canadian.
~*~*~Lance screws up his face a little bit at this new piece of information and appears to take a moment to digest the information.~*~*~
Lance:
I see. Well, I must admit at least that it will be good to step into the ring with a fellow country man again. However, I do know from years of running the Canadian circuit that you will not be much of a challenge Justin. You see, if you were really all that great, my brother would not have to tell me about you. I would already know.
But listen, I know what it is like to start in the American circuit, to try and iron out a name for yourself down here. So I have a proposition for you. Perhaps after this match is over, we can join forces and you can become my protege of sorts. I figure that you will have a little bit of time on your hands after I dump you from the World Title Tournament anyways. So, there is something for you to think about.
Regardless, the end result on Sunday will be the same. I will be taking the victory from you, however, since I know the battles of starting anew and we may be joining together, I will take it easy on you and try to make you look good. After all, it is not every day that you get the shot at joining forces with a legend like myself. I would hope that you are smart enough to see a career chance like that for what it is. Anyways, let me know hoss, I will be waiting to hear from you.
In the meantime, I have finished this interview Justin Tyme for dinner. See you Sunday.
~*~*~With that Lance gets up followed by Matthew and the two men leave the sight of the camera, leaving the entire training center empty except for the cameraman.~*~*~
~*~*~Sunday, August 5th, a new era will begin in this version of nCw. That is the era of Lance Ryan. Starting with Justin Tyme, Lance will show the world that he lives in a dark place where nobody can match his skills. And it is truly only Real Stars that shine in the dark.~*~*~
