||- Foreword -||
The most outstanding work an individual can achieve, has a name. Michelangelo chisseled granite with his bare hands to make it. Mozart laboured in poverty to find it. Hemmingway took his own life, when he could no longer write it. One man has gone behond them all. One man has truely produced a work that humbles those who standd before it. His name is Chris Masters... and he.. is The Masterpiece!"
(Introduction- Chris Masters has been around the Extreme Measures Federation for many moths now. However, espite being a part of one of the biggest name stables going, and despite having close friends whos names include John and Jackie Cena, Joy Giovanni, Carlito and Christy Hemme... he is yet to EVER compete in the EMF ring. However, this week... live from England, that's all set to change. Chris Masters has been somewhat angry by the mouth running of certain young newbies in and around the EMF in recent weeks. It would seem anybody who Prez Mike considers talented enough to put a contract under their nose, gets high off the smell of success, and believes themself bigger than God himself... and even more frighteningly, above the Masterpiece, Chris Masters! More recently, names to talk trash about the Masterpiece have included 17 time world champion Ric Flair and even former WWE Champion and General Manager of RAW Stonecold Steve Austin. However, these are people that Chris can easily deal with in time... for now there are 2 other names that must be dealt with. Those are 2 of the new horsemen stable, Ken Keneddy and the newest TV Champion, Tyson Tomko.Despite the gold around his waist, Masters does not see Tomko as a threat at all, rather as a fluke. TOmko is yet to win one match that isn't completely covered in controversy, and for that reason, Masters finds it hard to accept Tomko as a "true champion" as of yet. However, one thing that would open Chris's eyes would be if Tomko was to beat him in the match, though this is completely improbably, if not even impossible. However, what will happen, only time will tell... for now, the only thing left to do is get excited about the EMF's very first appearance in ENGLAND!!!)
(Our scene opens. We are life in the Cena mansion. Chris Masters, Christy Hemme and John Cena are sitting in the living room, as if waiting for something. There seems to be an awkward silent moment. Cena takes a sip of a near by beer before breaking this.)
Cena: "Where the hell can she be... how long does it take to deal with a phone call...."
Christy: "She's a woman... these things can take ages... you know how girls chat all the time for hours..."
Cena: "Yea... but have you noticed what time it is? Plus it's a tuesday... meaning it's going to be Mike, or one of his EMF workers.. calling to give us details of the upcoming Shockwave Card... I just wanna know who i'm going to be kicking the shit out of this week!"
Chris Masters: "Hm... I personally hope it's Tomko... though you probably don;t care about him..."
Cena: "And why would I not care about our TV Champion... you know what I did to that title... hell it probably wouldn't still exist if it wasn't for me!"
Chris Masters: "Well it's not like he's a great credit to that championship now is he? He won the title with interferance... he never anywhere near deserved it! Although I hate to say it... Dude Nick deserved to walk out with that championship! He dominate that ladder match from start to finish... and credit where credits due.. he should have beaten Tomko! The fact that he didn't is somewhat a joke actually.. seeing as Tomko had lost every other match he had been in before then! How could he suddernly just step up and become champion? Hell i've been living with champions for months... but NEVER did any of you come off a losing streak to take those titles... you were all really impressive atheletes, dominating and well deserving of the gold that you won. Tomko is none of these things. It makes me so God Damn angry to see him running around this company like he owns the place.. running his mouth off about guys like you who have been here for a hell of a lot longer than him and achieved more than he EVER will, and seeing him go round saying he could defeat the greatest wrestler of all time.... John Cena... he just disgusts me. There is no other word for it if im honest. Him and the rest of his newbie mates think they can hang with the best... when in reality they are yet to defeat low carders without cheating. But even though there's Austin and there's FLair and there's anyone else that thinks they can run their mouth about me and i'll just take it in and not dish it out, and they will all pay.. but Tomko has just angered me more than anyone else! Hell it even makes me wish I was an active wrestler so I can beat the fuck out of him myself... but I suppose i'll have to wait for somebody like you or Carlito to come across and take my revenge for me! Though I must say it's probably the one thing that could make me debut in the ring is the oppertunity to get my hands on that bastard.. but my challenge appeared to fall on death ears so to speak... he said he'd find a mystery partner... and I thought he's pick Keneddy... but the match just wasn't confirmed last week when I was expecting it to be. Oh well... if it doesn't happen it doesn't... or maybe Mike's booked it this week or who knows... that's why I wish Jackie would hurry up on that phone so she can tell me! BUt one way or another, I will have my revenge on Tomko... and any of his shit little horseman friends that chose to get in my way! Maybe i'll get the match, maybe I wont.. but that much does not matter, because Tomko.. I do not need to face you to take you down! Let you give you a friendly piece of advice... veteran to novice.. whatever you do, and where ever you go, make sure you ae carrying a mirror. The reason for this is not so you can look in it and bask at the reflection of perfection that you do not have but I do... but it is in fact, so that you can use the other use. SO you can see what's coming around the corner... because believe me Tomko if you can't... I'll get you! And it doesn't matter where and it doesn't matter when and it doesn't matter how many guys your with... i'm the Masterpiece.. and when I make a threat... I carry it out.. and people get hurt! No body crosses Chris Masters and gets away with it Tomko... do you even know who I am? Let me give you some info perhaps you didn't know. When I was living in Japan after going broke... yes I was broke for a short while... I trained under some of the greatest wrestlers ever known to man. No i'm not talking about your run of the mill WWE bullshit like Tajiri or Akebono... i' talking about real pros... guys who were faster than lightning, and could hit you before you've even seen them! Guys who had the strength of 10, and the heart of lions. They could out wrestle almost any of the talent in the EMF without lifting a finger no doubt... only really the Elite or a few former world champions would give them a match of any kind... and I doubt anyone would beat these guys.They taught me ways that I can not describe.. and moves that would have you wetting your pants out of fear at the sheer sight of them. My Masterlock dominated the WWE for a long time.. but now it is damn IMPOSSABLE to stop it.Nobody could ever defeat Chris Masters in the ring with the training he's had, and the ability and skills he has learnt to possess. I'm a wrestling machine... I know every trick in the book... every move inside out... sure maybe I have not wrestled in the EMF before... but if I ever do... you will see what i'm talking about... and why it is not possable to defeat me. I can knock you from pillar to post.. and from here to next year.. and you will not even get a scratch on me. I don't know when we will fight... this week... next week... next month... in a year... whether it will be a match of just me assaulting you blindly... but either way, you will suffer, and you will LOSE! I will pummel you deep into the cold, cold ground.. and when i'm done with you.. i'll take out anyone else that even thought of bad mouthing the Masterpiece! I will prove to the whole world I am not some joke.... that I can defend myself and defend others when they need it. That's all i'm here for... i'm not here to get into fights or feuds.. but I will not stand by and watch people bad mouth Revolution, the stable created by my good friend John and resurrected by myself.. and watch people throws its name in the garbage, just because their own career is heading that way. When you look at me... what do you see... a fucking Masterpiece! When you look at Tomko... or any other newbie... you see a rookie with a lot to prove and nothing to help him prove it... but with me you get the full package! YOu got looks, ability, charisma... the whole lot. Whether people love me or hate me I couldn't really give a fuck... coz I am who I am... those who love me recognise my talent... and those who hate me are just jealous that I am a Masterpiece where as they are nothing. Nothing but normal, middle class slobs with no life.. except from coming to watch people destroy eachother, paying $50 for a couple hours entertainment and missing half of it queuing for hot dogs and extra large colas. Its pathetic really.. then again it's why its their life and not mine... and why they are below me in every possible way. I'm the fucking Masterpiece... and its high time people began to realise that!"
(At that precise moment, Jackie Cena enters the room, beaming from ear to ear. The first reaction in the room is that she's been givern some kind of dream match, but Cena notices that not even when she was givern Amy did she look excited. He knwos something is up...and takes it upon himself to ask what they are all thinking.)
Cena: "What's the news Jackie... what's the deal with Shockwave?"
Jackie: "Oh it's unbelievable... amazing...."
Cena: "Who you got?"
Jackie: "What.... oh... I got a week off...."
Cena: "And your happy with that.... what about me... who am I facing?"
Jackie: "Week off too.... no point going really...."
Cena: "I suppose not... shame... I always like to hand someone a good beating.... but oh well we can sit here all weekend..."
Jackie: "Are you fucking kididng me??? We ARE going John.... Shockwave is in.... it's in... ENGLAND!!!"
(Cena looks at Chris, who looks back, and they shrug.)
Chris Masters: "What's the big deal... if none of us are wrestling... why go?"
Jackie: "I've waited all my life to go... i'm not wasting this oppertunity... and it's all company pated so why miss out? Oh and plus... I didn't say none of us are wrestling... in face we got 2 very big matches to go for!"
Chris Masters: "Oh your kidding... Mike booked the tag match?"
Jackie: "You bet he did! And it's the main event! And this might sound bizarre... but he also booked Bentley... they were flying back that weekend anyway so he'd be in England... he's gonna take on Sologub..."
Cena: "Oh my God... he's gonna get his ass kicked by a... REAL person!"
Chris Masters: "Who the hell cares about the old man Vs the person who recites names... i'm Main Eventing the damn first Shockwave in England! And my chance to get revenge on Tomko just arrived, along with an oppertunity to shus up MISTER Kennedy! It's a great oppertunity for me to prove to the world that I can compete.. and that I can step into the ring and handle the pressures that it throws at you. It's also perfect, because it means Tomko can have no excuses when I kick his ass all over Manchester, and force him to shut the fuck up for good! He made a big mistake when he walked in here. Sure he may have had a problem with Carlito.. and those two can sort it out and it's cool... but when he bad mouthed the whole Revolution... and started to talk trash about the one and only Masterpiece... it was only a matter of time before I stepped into the ring to sort it out... and that's exactly what i've done! I've got a match booked now... no backing out.. and I will be competing in my first match since my WWE days... but I am ready. I am ready to fight, and to defeat the Horsemen. They can quit living off their famous stable name... and learn that this is really a very competitive fed... and you either put up or shut up! So far Tomko and Keneddy have done neither... and it's about time they picked which side of that saying they chose to live on. They can either back away and quit talking bullshit about me.. or they can back it up by defeating Revolution in the ring.... which lets face it... is not gonna happen any time soon. You beating Revolution will only happen if hell freezes over AND the rest of your little gang come out and help you... and the rest of the damn locker room actually! I'd take out all the horseman single handidly.. that's how good I am! Nobody has beaten me... mainly coz I haven't wrestled.. but you think that i'm gonna blow a chance to start the single longest unbeaten streak ever? GOldberg may well have gone like 170 plus matches without losing.. and I don't pretend i'll even have that many matches... but nobody will beat the Masterpiece in his ENTIRE career! No i'm not going to wrestle week in, week out and win belts like most of you... but I will defend myself! Because once I make a debut, there is nothing stopping me getting in the ring again... and winning yet again! I'm a fucking Masterpiece... the greatest wrestler EVER to get in the ring.. and this week, when I actually compete for the first time... i'll show you all what you were missing.. and what you need to entertain you... and the Masterpiece will, no doubt, lead his team to a HUGE win and re-start the losing streak of Tomko, whilst continuing the streak Nick started against Keneddy! The four horseman are complete jokes.. with nothing, thats right NOTHING to offer this company. There have no talent, no skill.. and come the event in Manchester.. they will find out what a real ass-kicking feels like... courtosy of the Masterpiece! I don't care what it takes.. and if I have to lock in a thousand masterlock to make one of them tap... i'll do it.. and they will suffer, fall, and crumble at my feet. Chris Masters will then look down and laugh, and the Horseman will know that the only dominant stables around here are the Elite and Revolution... and that it will take a lot more than a washed up manager and some z-list rookies to survive here. They can all clam together... safety in numbers and all that shit, but when push comes to shove... they will be outmuscled and they will fall to the bigger, better stables that grace this industry. Sure I might be a debutant... but winning on your debut is not uncommon... many people do it. And Chris Masters will be another one who does... only this time it will be more impressive.. because along with Carlito, he will paint the ring crimson with the blood of the Horse-fuckers, and Revolution will stand tall and proud once more. We will prove that the old Revolution was something.. but we are not a bunch of low life living off a former glory name like the Horseman are doing, we are actually a strong faction, and one that will dominate the rosters for a long while. We are Revolutionary... the greatest new faction around... and the HOrseman are just dreaming if they even envision defeating us this week. The MAsterlock cannot be broken... Carlito can not be stopped... and together we will win this match, and then take down the other horsemen one by one... just to prove we are serious about this! They came here and bad-mouthed us... they asked for an ass-kicking... and that's just what they are going to get handed to them on a plate in that ring. I will demolish them and any other help they bring out... and they will learn NEVER to call upon the Masterpiece again. I mean... look at me. Does this look like the body of a man you want to get in the ring with, that you want pounding into you? Well does it? No of course not.. so just what was Tomko thinking when he issued his little challenge... is he serious about being able to defeat the Masterpiece? I am in the best shape of any man in the back... i'm the most talented submissions wrestler going.. and I will MAKE TOMKO TAP! The Masterlock will prove sufficient once more to take out my victims... and he will learn just how great I am! TOmko is an absolute reject... which is why he hangs around the likes of Conway... Flair... Keneddy... all fellow no-hopers. Anyone in the world could defeat them, but I will defeat them in damn style. I'm Chris Masters for fuck sake... not some untalented piece of shit that the Horseman can beat... coz lets face it... thats about the level they could raise to. They could probably beat a couple of newbs.. but i'm a seasoned veteran... been through WWE, Japanese Wrestling Schools... and now i'm here, in the Extreme Measures Federation... ready to come out for the first time and kick the hell out of anyone that gets in my way. Tomko asked to face me... or rather forced me into challenging him... and now ir's time he learns the fate he will suffer. He has unleashed the beat.. and now I, Chris Masters... will take my pray, drain it of eveything its got, and watch it slowly die before your very eyes! Just you wait Tomko... this may not be your first match... but I wouldn't bet against it being your LAST!"
Cena: "He does seem to have some kind of problem with me I can;t explain... as if he thinks the Extreme CHampion would actually waste his time on someone as bad and untalented as he is... but whatever... to Tomko I say.. IF YOU WANT SOME... COME GET SOME! But if not... then back off and leave my name out of your little Masters rants... else I'll have to take matters into my own hands!"
Jackie: "John.. can you come help me pack for our trip?"
Cena: "Oh you bet honey... we'll continue this later chris...."
(The scene fades. It re-opens a few days later with "Land of Hope and GLory" playing in the background of some EMF Channel Show as John Cena, Jackie Cena, Chris and Christy and the Jones family get out of a private jet having landed in Merry Old England. The cameras follow them for a while but the scene fades again with not much of interest. It opens again later though, Cena and Jackie are sitting in a hotel in the hotel EMF have rented out. Chris Masters walks in.)
Chris Masters: "I just caught the promos of those horse-fuckers... you see it?"
Cena: "No.. we were a little busy... sorry man..."
Chris Masters: "Oh its ok... I just cant believe some of the shit they came out with...."
Cena: "Why? What did they say?"
Chris Masters: "Well Flair come sout and runs his mouth like the son of a bitch he is... then introduces Tomko like he's some kinda God. That had me pissed off right from the start... because everyone could see Tomko did not DESERVE the championship he holds, and that he stole it during that triple threat. IT was the worst way to win a title ever... but Tomko acts like he went through a fucking Elimination Chamber or something. And then they go on about winning the tag titles... as if they'd even stand a chance against the likes of DTC when they got in the ring for them. He introduced the other bastards, and then made out like they were some kind of stunning team... and then Tomko started talking and I almost fell asleep. I mean.. I can respect Flair... but that son of a bitch just went on and on about fuck all. Saying he might pick Conway as a partner.. as if I give a fuck. It doesn't matter to me who's ass I kick... as long as it's taking a shot at the Horseman. Keneddy is all mouth and nothing to back it up.. completly beatable by anyone... and Conway.. well he's only been here 5 minutes and already he has an enemy capable of ripping his head off and shoving it straight up his canadian ass, just for pleasure. Then Tomko goes on about being able to break the Masterlock... and how everyone I do it on is small and insignificant... was that the case when it made the SHOWSTOPPER... the Main Event the Icon... Shawn Michaels tap back in WWE? That man did more for wrestling then you and your animal loving friends will ever give to this company... and it broke him. So imagine what it can do to you! And you want to talk about Flair beating Carlito... if Flair's so great.. why is he managing you instead of winning matches himself? So i suggest Tomko you think very carefully before you talk about the Masterpiece like that again... or you will feel pain like nnever before.. you will be snapped in half and Tyson Tomko.. YOU WILL TAP! Then we get his two ass-lickers on the mic.. and they run their mouth about nothing in particular also! Keneddy seems to have some mental disorder whereby he has to say his own name twice every time he says it... and Conway... that guy just bores me with his over the top ego and his "Con Way" stuff. They then suggest that hey... maybe even Tomko wont be in the match... MAYBE.. it will be Conway and Keneddy... WHAT THE HELL? Do all your athelees suck so much that they don't even have ONE necessity.. one man that shines so much they can't bare not to have him in the match? COme on.. that's a joke.. it's got to be... you don't even know ONE of your team... oh well. It doesn't bother me who I face... because I am the Masterpiece, and no matter what.. I will destroy the horseman, and make damn sure Revolution stake a claim to be the best stable around. Maybe the Elite will object... and to be honest I don't care.. but we will certainly prove that the Horseman are nothing.. and that we are superior to them! Revolution... will be your solution Horseman... and we will teach you how to lose in style! IT's something we know nothing about, but we can certainly teach people how to do it. I don't care if i'm facing Conway, Keneddy or even Tomko... because NONE of you can take the Masterlock and survive. I don't care how big you are, how strong you are.. once your in that hold.. there'ss no way out.. and Chris Masters has won the match. It wont matter even if you recruited another Horseman and threw him in the match totally at random.. because Chris Masters would STILL walk out as the champion, and you'd still be left regretting your mistakes. When it comes to wrestling, there aint nobody that can defeat me. Hell i'd even give you a good match John, and you know that no doubt. I am in the greatest shape of any wrestler on this roster, and I train alongside many of the best day in, day out also. To beat me, you'd need to either cheat, take out Carlito, or get very, VERY lucky. You'd like have to rol me up, hold the tights and the ropes as well as getting a fast count... even then i'd probably kick out before the count of 3. The Masterlock cannot be broken, and the Masterpiece cannot be beaten, and Horseman, whether you like it or not.. you will find out just how amazing I am, and just why you can't even hold a candle to the masterpiece!"
Cena: "Well it seems like you got everything under control Chris... you wont be needing any help out there I assume?"
Chris Masters: "Help? HELP?? My God no! I'm the greatest athelete this side of the water... oh wait.. we're in England.. I mean the greatest athlete THAT side of the water... but also this side too probably. Nobody will defeat me int aht ring, especially not an old has been, a canadian, a goat and a man who thinks his name builds suspense... what a joke. Keneddy thinks he can beat me.. he couldn't even beat Dude Nick last week... and he's NOTHING on the Masterpiece. If you can;t get the job done with Nick... a member of the OLD Revolution.. then the new one will just rip you to shreds.."
Cena: "Hold up... the OLD Revolution... that REAL Revolution was the most dominant force in the world... where as you haven't even had a match yet... what makes you think you're fake stable is better than MY creation?"
Chris Masters: "Whatever John... you turned your back on it.. it's mine now! And then.... then there's Conway. The man that left La Resistance... as if it was ever successful... to go and join the 4 Horseman. Considering whos in this version of it... that may prove a bad call. Teaming up with Dupree may have been better for you than the low life your with now. You, like me, are looknig at a debut if you beat the really tough selection process and make it into that match... but to be honest I wouldn't worry about it if I were you. It makes no odds if your in or out... just if you in... make sure your not the legal man... and then run. Run as fast as you can.. and you will t least not suffer at my hands that way. Hell i'd even respect you for being able to admit your fear. But Conway... this coming Shockwave.. if you don;t back down... i'll take you down!"
Cena: "Well you've covered them to.. what about the disgrace of a champion Tomko?"
Chris Masters: "Is it even worth me bothering with him... the man looks like a goat, smell like a goat.. and this Shockwave youll see him wrestle like one too. I'm the Masterpiece.. and he's just Tomko... the man carrying the TV Title like he earnt it.. when he had to cheat his way to it! That belt had a great list of champions... Neddie guerrero, John Cena, Punisher... but when the Elite let it go... it got stale... and a man like Tomko was allowed to get his claws into it. IT truely is a disgrace... and one that will be put right soon. And thta tsarts with me softening Tomko up this week... so Tomko... if you want even a 1% chance of retaining that title when you get your first defence... let the other two face me... back out.. and survive! In the words of John Cena... Word Life!"
Cena: "Man... I know you'd talk for loads longer... but what's the use. Your wasting oyur breath anyway. We better get ready to go meet the Jone's for that farewell dinner thing... coz two of them are heading home straight after the show."
Chris MAsters: "Good point... i'll let you guys get ready then. I'll catch you later."
(The scene fades out as Masters leaves the room.)
