ewa: MEET THE NEW BOSS, SAME AS THE OLD BOSS


The title of this refers to Rob Faith's second roleplay for this match, which was titled "Meet the New Boss." It related to how he had got a job on the new Board of Directors. Of course, it is also a direct reference to The Who's "Won't Get Fooled Again." This roleplay is not good at all, it was just meant to get one final roleplay up to meet the limit and the deadline. I was literally working and posting this one while at work, desperately trying to get it posted in time. I felt bad about posting at next to the last minute like that, but it couldn't be helped. I apologized to everyone on the boards and explained my situation and even sent a private message to Rob about it. Thankfully, everyone seemed cool with it. So that's why this roleplay isn't very good and why it is short. It is meant to basically be a reply to Rob's previous roleplay and nothing more. I found out weeks later that I had once done a similar roleplay back in RWW where The Boy celebrated a title victory before the match took place. I'm not sure if that makes it a cool, albeit unintentional homage to that one, or just me being lazy and unconsciously ripping myself off. Either way...

(The scene opens up inside a lush hotel room. Throughout the entire room are congratulatory balloons, banners, and other various mementos. The camera continues to pan across the room until it settles on Scott "The Boy" Hellings, sitting on the couch and pouring himself some champagne. He is dressed in a tuxedo and appears to be in a very jovial mood).

HELLINGS-
"I know what you're thinking, so let me explain. Turmoil hasn't arrived yet, but already the celebrations have begun. Of course, some would have you believe you shouldn't count your chicken before they hatch, but that's for normal people. Me, I'm not normal, as I am THE Canadian Legend and The One and Only UBERstar. So, it's pretty much a foregone conclusion that the International Title will be coming home with me at the end of Turmoil and that is why the celebrations are underway. All these little trinkets were sent to me from all my fans, all The Boy Scouts out there. They know better than anyone that I'll win the strap this week.

Honestly, who is going to stop me? Shiru Vanchiez, well I'm pretty sure he's in the Witness Protection Program or something, because finding that guy is harder than finding Big Foot and the Loch Ness Monster playing shuffleboard together. And, well, I'm pretty sure Rob Faith can't stop me. I know he likes to think of himself as a cornerstone of this company, but I will prove otherwise to the world. If he thinks he's somehow important than he's only lying to himself and I am personally shocked that the EWA fans and staff have actually bought it up until now. 'Up until now' being the key words here though, as I will expose him as a fraud at Turmoil. If you're not a has-been, then why did the Alliance turn their back on so suddenly? It's because they realized how pathetic you truly were and they decided to cut off the weakest link, isn't it?

You can't fool me Rob, I know how inept you truly are. Oh, Rob likes to call himself (making quotation marks with his fingers) 'Mr. EWA' but I think we'll all see that just isn't true. Once I'm through with him, no one will want him attaching his name to this company and sullying the reputation of both EWA and the entire wrestling industry as a whole. I hope you've enjoyed the ride while it lasted Rob, but it's about to come to a screeching halt."

(The Boy takes a sip of the champagne and puts his feet up on the coffee table in front of him).

HELLINGS-
"Rob certainly lives in his own little world, doesn't he? When he's not forcing us to watch his little soap opera, which I like to call 'As the World Churns,' he's attempting to talk trash...but failing. Rob, where did you get the idea that I called you a god? I don't recall saying that. Why would I? Wouldn't that be giving you far, FAR too much credit? If anything I called myself a god and if that's a problem for you, well...do something about it. And I didn't mean to insult your religion Rob. Really, I didn't. I wasn't trying to insult your god or your religion, I was trying to insult YOU. Apparently that didn't get through that thick little head of yours. I guess it wasn't monosyllabic enough for you to understand. I apologize Rob, I forgot who I was dealing with. And as far me taking shots at your little girly there, that's just what I do Rob. Oh, I have nothing against Sarah - except for the fact that she's with a loser like you - I'm just trying to get in your head. And it's worked, hasn't it?

Admit it - I got to you. I know it, you know it, the whole damn world knows it! You say that your relationship with Sarah makes you stronger? Can you even begin to explain how? You're so preoccupied with your life with her that you're not even preparing or focusing on our match! That's not something that makes you stronger, that's a liability. But you do what you must because I really don't care. I'm not here to look out for your well-being, all I'm here to do is win. Yes, that's right, win. You talked about me losing...I'm on a freakin' roll Rob! I didn't become the Number One Contender by losing you moron! You want to talk trash, that's fine by me. But next time make sure you know what you're talking about. You don't know me, you don't even have a clue. Well let me fill you in then...I am the guy that will beat you at Turmoil. I am the guy that will become the International Champion - or whatever the heck they want to call the damn thing. I am The Marquee Player, The Franchise Saviour and The Number One Money Maker! I am the guy who is going to be playing the part of your Judge, Jury, and Executioner and I am sentencing to you pain and humiliation! In short, I am your worst nightmare Rob. You don't know it yet, but you'll see what I mean soon.

You'll get it once you hear someone count to three and the ringing of a bell and then, and only then, will you truly know me Rob. You can keep pretending all you want, but I think deep down inside you already know the truth; you know you can't beat me. So you resort to saying I act like I'm in junior high or something stupid like that and that's all good and fine - by the way, that's the best insult you can come up with? - but the truth is this isnt about name calling. And this isn't about who's dating who, although you want to remind us at every waking moment...like anyone cares. And it's not about religion or even you and me Rob. This is about a championship and I think you forgot that long ago."

(The Boy kicks off his shoes and loosens his tie a bit before continuing.)

HELLINGS-
"You think I'm whining about losing my rightful spot as the Number One Contender? Well that wasn't my intention but, yes, it does upset me. I earned my spot and it was taken away from me for no good reason. You want me to do something about it? Believe me, Rob, I am about to. Basically, it involves me winning myself a shiny new title and taking you down in the process. You think it's an insult that I feel I am too good for the International Title? It's not an insult, it's the truth. Have I not already proven that I am capable of far greater things? Have I not proven that I should be competing for something with a little more prestige? Well you can feel insulted all you want but it won't do you any good. That's what I'm trying to get at it here Rob; feel insulted, hate me if you must, feel as though I have no honour in verbally attacking a woman with whom I have not involvement, get offended by what I say, and talk as much trash back to me as you want...it will all be for naught. There is simply no way you can beat me and there is nothing you can do to stop me. Look, they may call me The Boy, but there is no doubt that I am The Man, Rob. You amuse me though, so maybe, just maybe, if you are lucky, I'll grant you a shot at my title...someday."

(The Boy gets up and walks over to the kitchen unit in his room, slicing himself a piece of his very own congratulatory cake as he continues).

HELLINGS-
"By the way Rob, I noticed you liked to mention how the word HELL appears in my last name and were wondering how I could even believe in the divine with such a name. Well, Rob, for starters, I could argue that a name really means nothing; that which we call a rose by any other name would smell just as sweet. And, before you say it: no, I didn't memorize that line in junior high you jackass, I actually read books. It's a strange concept I know, but that's because I have spare time, rather than devoting every waking minute to boring everyone with a relationship that, let's face it, is doomed anyway. Heck, I've already proven your name means nothing Rob! I mean, you call yourself Rob Faith, but faith has nothing to do with it. Faith won't pull you through, faith won't make you a champion. Sheer will and determination and, most importantly, GOD-given talent makes you a champion. And no one has more talent than me, remember?

Besides, even if we want to take a look at my name as having any sort of meaning whatsoever, let me ask you this: for someone who evidently likes to pretend he's religious, are you aware of the concept of a 'fallen angel?' Are you aware that Satan was a fallen angel? He rebelled against God and became the king of Hell. What am I thinking? Of course you wouldn't know that! You make fun of people for trying to impart some wisdom on the world! But, there you have it, even the devil himself has a connection to the divine. So maybe next time you question something, maybe you should think of doing some research. And, fortunately for you, I am going to see it to that you get some time off so that you'll be able to catch up your reading. So while you're recovering for the beating I will deliver to you at Turmoil, I'll be the one defending a championship. It's not the title I deserve, no, but I'll get that one too soon enough. I'm going to be on top of this company whether you like it or not Rob. It all starts at Turmoil and you should feel honoured because you'll have the best seat in the house to watch me become the International Champion. Too bad you won't be conscious to see it. So although you don't like the things I have to say, it won't really matter because you're going to be hearing a lot more out of me soon. You all will. So I guess you could say, I'm going to be able to have my cake and eat it too, huh?"

(The Boy takes a bit of his cake and smile smugly, before heading out of the shot. He then pauses puts down the plate on the counter and walks back towards the camera).

HELLINGS-
"Rob, I appreciate you being so passionate about things, really I do. I appreciate that you are passionate about your relationship, about the fans, and even about your religion. But don't believe what you see in the movies because passion alone does not win championships. It takes talent and lots of it. Fortunately, I have plenty to spare. And that is why I am going to go on and become the International Champion and then go on and become the World Champion. I am a juggernaut that cannot be stopped by you or anybody else. Be passionate all you want, but it won't do you any good. I'm walking out of Turmoil as the champion. Why? Because I want to, because I can!"

(The Boy then storms off, leaving his hotel room as the scene fades to black.)
