State Of The Union


Black Blank Screen... The backdrop light comes on and standing in front of a black and green backdrop are NLR CEO, Marcus Anderson, and NLR GM, �Big� Ed Johnson. Neither man looks very happy as they leer at the camera, Marcus looks annoyed, and Johnson, again this week, has not shaved, and is carrying a twitching Starbucks cup...

�Big� Ed Johnson: Last week, as Hysteria went off the air, I was ecstatic... I was Thrilled.. I was Proud... A weeks worth of preparing and hyping to all of my friends about what many said would never make the air... I went to sleep with a hooker underneath each arm, and a smile on my face. I received a call late in the night from the CEO of this company, MY Company, about some rumors in the locker room about the direction this company is headed in.

Last week, we saw the coveted MWF trophy shattered by an active staff member... Marcus and I have talked to Lee about this, and let me go on record as saying, he is very, very, sorry.

There has also been some discontent about the way that matches are being booked, and the stars that are moving into the limelight. I am here not to explain myself to anyone, but to show you all how things are going to be done.

I�m the first to arrive at the arena, the guy who signed your contracts, the guy who signs the checks you earn, the guy who gets this show to air, and the guy that hypes you men and �woman�, above all others everywhere. I will NOT concede any wrongdoing involving the way the NLR is ran, period.

First off, our resident thug, Mobius, is upset about being booked in a �Show or Go� match... Mobius, I like your work, but there�s just not enough of it being done. And I will continue to ride your ass until you give me a reason not to.

Second, Troy Knight, upset that we have decided to move ever upward, ever onward, in our quest to �Revolutionize� the NLR, and turn our backs on our heavy Maximum Heritage... Well Troy, in case you haven�t noticed, the logo on your check is not made out by Ed Walker, it sure as HELL could not have been cashed if Scotty Heart had signed it... No, it�s an NLR check Troy. The Maximum Wrestling Federations Bastard Child. You know, like the two little heathens you keep bringin� backstage with your flaming ass... This ain�t a daycare either Troy. Time to begin your evaluation of your own self worth, because me? I�m not convinced.

And now, the biggest pain in the ass since Jack Harley left the NLR... It�s been on everyones� mind this week. What to do with Mike Miller? Fact is Mike, you showed more promise last week, than any on this roster. It was the best you�ve managed to muster since your arrival, and after watching you drivel on about being screwed for a week, all I can do is shake my head, and doubt that you�ll ever be at your peak like that again. Fact is though Mike, you lost last week, Mike. Even though you try as you might, you were not the man to take out the Legacy Champion. You talk about how you SHOULD have had him beat? Mike, after re-going over last weeks ring efforts, in the interest of �fairness�, it has come to our decision that the only thing you beat, was our company out of a check..

I tried to be nice about it, Mr. Miller, not anymore...

This goes for anyone unhappy with the way I�m calling the shots... If the NLR is making you that unhappy, I'm sure that Harlum over at the WEW is always in need of Fodder for his crew...

This is the 'Revolution' boys, we do this My Way, Period... Anyone has a problem with that, then it�s simply time to get the...

�MWF� out...
