Damn razor burn...annoying like my No Remorse opponent! HA! Maybe I should use that. Nah. Let's see here..bill, bill..fan letter..fan letter...fan letter..stalker letter..same old, same old I see.

Joe quickly tosses the stalker letter in the trash can and peeks out the window to make sure the person isn't still out there. He sees something move by the garbage can outside and heads out to investigate. He searches around and in the bushes sees David Love and a cameraman scrunched down hiding..

What in the blue hell!?!? What are you doing in my bushes Love???

I'm sorry Mr. Cool...just was trying to get an interview..

With who, the ticks that hide in those things?

Love jumps out and starts brushing his suit just in case, but Joe is laughing.

There are not any ticks in the bushes Love. Although I'd worry about mosquitos if I were you, West Nile virus and all.

Love looks paranoid as Joe laughs again.

Well the reason we were hiding in the bushes was to avoid um....we were going to surprise you...

Next time, knock on my door..please! Now let's go inside to get this interview over with, shall we?

Yes we should.

Joe, Love and the cameraman go inside where Mandy, Joe's 4-month pregnant wife is standing.

You find that stalker?

Nope, I think we'll get them the next time. I'm going to have Love hide in the bushes to scare them, since he has no problem doing it to scare me.

Um..yes..hello Mrs. Lee, we were just here to interview your husband.

That's fine with me. Joe don't take too long ok I need to talk with you about something.

I didn't plan on interviewing anyway, so I don't think I will take too long.

Joe sits down in his chair as Love sits down on the sofa and the cameraman sets up the camera as Love and Joe put in the the C4 interview to watch. Joe snickers at the comments of his opponent and he outright begins laughing at certain things C4 says. The cameraman for some reason is shifting around and not standing still. Joe gives him a glare and he stops moving. After the interview is finished the cameraman turns the camera on for the interview.

Hello ICW fans, I'm David Love and I'm here in East Rutherford, New Jersey, inside the lovely home of Joe Cool, the President of ICW. As many of you know Joe will be competing against C4 in a "respect" match at ICW No Remorse. Joe first of all, how is the neck and head?

Oh I knew you'd ask that. See as it turns out I'm not that bad off. I mean that's a little egotistical to say considering he used a freaking lead pipe and the Heatstroke on the concrete floor but I've taken worse bumps in my matches, as many people should know by now. I'm going to be 100% by No Remorse regardless, even if I am about 85% right now.

Well we do hope you get better, a lot of people think C4 has a beating coming to him after weeks of him basically being an arrogant jackass. Sorry for being unprofessional.

Joe smiles at this comment from Love. For some reason the cameraman is now twitching again, Joe ignores him to speak.

Don't be, he IS an arrogant jackass. C4 has always been! And now he's pissed off the wrong guy and all I really need to say is a lot of people's expectations will be played out, C4 does have a beating coming to him. Let's look at his victim list Love. He came here, entered a Hardcore Gauntlet Match, and the only person he fought was Crow. Needless to say Crow recieved injuries and he's been out of ICW ever since. C4 went on to fight GI in a death match. My own brother kicked his ass bell to bell, and in the end it took "Cock" Rider to help him when the thing. You saw it. So what did I do? I laid his punk ass out, a message to C4 I guess.

C4 has also beat up Randy McCaskill, ruining his ICW future by injuring him, he ended the career of Misty Storm, which Danger still wants revenge for. He's ended the career of Pozen. He's assaulted the World Champion Bob Rocket, and on top of that he's attacked ME several times. It's only a matter of time before he gets EXACTLY what's coming to him. 6 days to be exact.

Why did you add the "Respect" stipulation?

Well that's simple. As you can see C4 doesn't respect anybody or anything. This matchup won't end until C4 tells me he repects me. Basically either C4's gonna respect me or he's going to have his career ended.

Those are strong words Joe. You have attacked him ruthlessly as well, giving him the Solitaire Unraveling twice, one of those times just happened to be off of the FNX stage through the tables below. Do you have any respect for Calon?

As a wrestler I do. He's the Hardcore champion, he was picked #1 for FNX and he's currently undefeated. As a human being? Hell no. He disgusts me. I've seen prisoners on death row with more respectable qualities than Calon Cross, which is saying something.

Let's go back to the interview we just witnessed. There was a foreward attached addressed to you, which made some statements about you having ring rust, well you know what he said. What do you think about that?

I think C4 needs to get his head checked Love. I've been wrestling for Lights Out Wrestling since June and I'm currently a rising star there. Yes a rising star, that's really saying something, but these guys are a whole new breed of wrestler over there, they have a different style and everything. I had to adjust myself. So I have been training and I have been actively competing. C4 should know this, as I've cut an interview for ICW in a LOW locker room! He says I'm going to be "taught a lesson". I'm wondering, a lesson on what? How to kick C4's ass? How to upstage him by showing my marvelous wrestling ability? How to finish him off with any type of maneuver I see fit to use? Or maybe how to respect someone? Maybe Calon will decide that since I don't respect him, he'll teach me how to say it by he himself saying "I respect you Joe".

That would be actually funny. Kind of like that time in WCW when that MB Smooth tried to make Norman Smiley say I Quit, and then he says, "Say I Quit! I Quit!" and the referee awarded the match to Smiley.

Joe gives Love an awkward look, before looking back at the cameraman who CAN NOT sit still..Joe glares at him again and he takes a few seconds but finally stops. Joe turns back to Love.

Love, what in the hell are you talking about?

I don't know.

Well then do me a favor and DON'T talk, unless you're going to ask me questions.

Ok. This question is actually interesting. Some people compare the cocky, arrogant C4 of now, to the days when you were first entering the business back in BTW. Do you agree?

Damn Love when you say it, I feel old! And I'm only 29. Well I was cocky, I was arrogant, but I didn't do half the things C4 did. And by that I mean I didn't go ending people's careers and assaulting them for no reason. But my cockiness can be backed up Love. I'm the Cool One, The Smooth Criminal, The New Masterpiece, The Man Without Fear. I earned those nicknames by being not only Cool and Smooth but by being a techincal masterpiece in the ring, and showing no fear in my matches. I've held more titles than FNX GM Brandi Fairchild has slept with FNX employees, men and women included. So yes I think it's fair to say I have somewhat of a right to be cocky. C4? He's done some things now, whoop-dee-do. I don't care. He's yet to beat me, and that's really all that matters.

Well let's go to his interview...

Yeah let's do that. First off, who is Smokey Carmichael? Is he related to Kelly? Did Mick hire him without me knowing? Ok I'm just rambling now, continue Love.

Thank you. This is mainly just to hear your response but what do you think about C4 comparing your match to that of Reaper & Orb?

Love sometimes I think you ask these question in HOPES someone slaps a lawsuit on me. Everyone knows my opinion on Raper..shit forgot the e..Reaper, and that fat-ass Orb. What's to say? The match was good, but I remember many parts being dull. I plan on making this match the best in my career if possible, and when I say that Massicrist is my 4th best match ever and I plan to make this one the best...well that's saying many many things about this matchup.

Repeating the question Smokey gave to C4...do you think that C4 can provide YOU with competition?

Well he's gonna make me work for my win, as I think I'm going to have to break a bone on him to get him to say he respects me, so I guess I can say he will. Like I said, I do respect him as a talented athlete.

Joe brought up your bad ICW win/loss record in his interview, what do you have to say about it?

When you look at the fact that I've not wrestled many matches in ICW, and my losses ended via screwjob, or like my match with Orb, DQ, then you can't really tell anything about my style from that other than a lot of people don't like me, and sometimes I get carried away. I will bring up a comment C4 said though, that stood out: "You see if you look back, hes got a huge flaw when it comes to facing the big dawgs and me". I think that speaks for itself don't you? C4's not a big dawg. If so why would he separate himself from that group mentioning? I think he realizes what he has gotten himself into in this, he knows I've had some of the best matches in wrestling history and he has yet to find that one big match that makes his career. Hell Love, I didn't find that ONE big match until I fought Judgement. I lost that match too, you remember how?

Yes, Judgement managed to knock you down but passed out and just happened to have landed outside the cage he was supposed to escape from.

Yeah and if you also remember we both had to be taken to the hospital and the fans gave us BOTH a standing ovation when the match was all said and done. That match was THE big match of my career, and if made Judgement into a much bigger star than he was at the time. C4 has yet to have that one match, he has yet to actually be named a "star". Right now he's just a overly cocky guy with above average talent that has a lot of potential. Potential..nothing more, nothing less. Whether he lives up to that potential is up to him.

What about C4's comments about you loving the spotlight, but not being able to handle the pressure?

I wipe my ass with C4's comments, ok? I do love the spotlight. But who in the hell doesn't? Do you see any ICW guys saying, "No I LOVE being a curtain jerker, let me work the dark matches Joe!" No you don't. Everyone loves the spotlight. Some people can't handle the pressure, they break, they retire, they make mistakes. I'm not one of those people. I've faced many opponents in my career. Many people that could take C4 out in a heartbeat, I know because I've barely beaten a few of them. I've faced business pressure too, when certain people left ICW they tried to take it out, by taking many wrestlers with them. One of them was at the time the VP, so I had to run this entire company almost alone. ICW was dying. But unlike BTW, which that same VP was running when it died, I managed to get new staff and new wrestlers and new life was given to ICW. Unlike BTW, ICW didn't die, because I was running it, and not that guy who quit. That's pressure Love, and if I couldn't handle pressure, there would BE no ICW. I wouldn't be where I am if I couldn't handle pressure. So C4 should watch his mouth before he tells me whether or not I can handle pressure.

I'm sorry to have brought that up Joe it seems to have struck a chord with you. What about C4 thinking that you don't respect him?

Well he thinks it'll be humiliating should I tell the whole world I respect him. Why is that C4? Because you aren't good enough to be respected? I mean I can understand if the crowd laughed at me because I said I respected..say...The Avenger, but do you consider yourself that low? Well I already said it right here I respect you as an athlete. It wouldn't be that hard for me to say it at No Remorse. The reason I won't say it, C4, is because while for you it's hard to say it because you have no respect for anyone, it'd be hard for me to say it because it'd be just like saying, "I Quit". C4, I don't quit. I've never quit. That's why I won't say it. And C4 isn't going to get me to say it. In my hometown, do you really think I'm going to quit in front of my very own friends and family?

No Joe, I don't.

There's a reason for that isn't there. Love you've pretty much followed my career as you were there when I arrived in BTW, and I hired you to ICW due to your impressive commentary skills. Have I ever quit in my entire life?

I can honestly say you haven't.

So, using logic, something C4 doesn't do, which is why he scares that Smokey guy into sucking up to him, who is the logical winner of this "Respect" match with C4?

Joe even using logic I can't predict that. All I know is it's going to be a very excellent match.

That it is, and Love thank you for being honest. Now, I have a little personal message for C4. C4, you may not respect me, and if you say it at No Remorse it may be just because you're in so much pain you want the match to end, and you don't even mean it! But that doesn't matter because I will be the winner of the match and my hand will be raised. My hometown fans, friends and family will see me in all my glory and will see you treated like that Cocky Chump you are, Calon Cross. C4, you are nothing, I am the reason this match is the main event. Now right about now I could say my catchphrase but you'd probably retort with "Tell Me Something New" like you did when this match was made. Which to me says that you already know you're a loser and you already know you're going to lose this matchup. So I guess that I really AM not telling you anything that you don't already know!

The interview ends and Love thanks Joe for his time. The cameraman now puts the camera away in his bag...suddenly there is a knock on the door. Mandy answers it and there is a guy wearing a wifebeater and boxer shorts jumping up and down because he's tied up.

What the hell? Love who's this?

That's my cameraman! But that means the other guy was...

Joe hears a window smash and runs to his weightroom to see the "cameraman" trying to escape. Joe grabs him and throws him back in the weight room before picking up one of Mandy's 10 lb barbell(you know one of those cheap plastic ones) and belts the guy in the head with it, knocking him unconscious.

Well I found the stalker I think.

Joe searches him and sees that he almost escaped with Joe's "Coroner" jacket, and several of his various championships he had stowed away in the camera bag. Joe, now cautious for some reason, places the tape inside the VCR and watches his own interview tape to make sure there are no errors. Luckily the stalker did his job, if only to make everyone not suspect who he was. Joe hears sirens outside as apparantly the police are on their way as the scene fades out....
