Steve’s team lost the tag team match to the Monstmimals after Steve, following yet another failed title theft attempt and failing to pin Samuel McPherson even after hitting him with the What Fear, got speared in two by Lord Raab but apparently Mark wasn’t done putting Steve in the same ring as James just yet as he had yet another match lined up for him.
This week James and Steve would meet in a one on one, non-title match with Ryan Keys and Matt Spears in their respective corners, not only that but the match was the first ever Throw In The Towel Match where the only way either man would face defeat was if the man in their corner threw in the towel, naturally this has led to a lot of speculation regarding the men’s Roulette Title Match at Into The Void with Tommy Knox of the Hotwire predicting that this meant that it would lead into a Fatal Four Way for the title between the four men, not only that but that could be seen by Steve as retaliation for Steve’s actions since losing the Roulette Title just under three weeks ago but can Steve win?

It’s great to be the Fearless Champion but it’ll be even better to be the Roulette Champion again! Even though I never should’ve lost that title!
The only reason that I haven’t done a promo until now is simple, I was still reeling from that spear by Lord Raab at the end of the Tag Team Match last week on Climax Control and at first I was under the impression that I was going to be given the week off to prepare for Into the Void and, more importantly, my rematch against James Tuscini!
And then I found out that my rematch with James was not only happening three weeks earlier than I expected but the fucking title isn’t even on the line!
And before you ask, yes, I do think Mark Ward has a trick up his sleeve heading into the next Supercard, hell you saw what happened at the Climax Control before Blaze of Glory V where he made my first defense be against both Joshua Acquin and James which eventually led into the current mess that we’re in so yeah, I think he has something in mind for Matt Spears and Ryan Keys as well! Why do you think that they are in me and James’s corners?
And before the smart asses out there answer, first off all I’m the king of smart asses so leave that job to me and second, Matt won last weeks’ match against Keys so if anything Matt should be the Special Guest Referee or something! Not that he’d do a better job at it than I did two months ago but still! And then there’s the stip!
I mean seriously, Throw in the Towel?! You may as well give us free reign to just beat the holy hell out of each other and give Ryan and Matt bags of popcorn because there’s no way that they are going to throw in the towel over something like a headlock or a single punch! Me and James are their biggest rivals for the men’s Roulette Title and regardless of Mark’s agenda I think it’s pretty fucking clear that they won’t settle for anything less.
Much like I won’t settle for anything less than taking back MY TITLE!
Don’t ask me how or why but Mark roped me into doing some PR at a local store here in Osaka in the form of an autograph session and no, he didn’t promise anything in return for the autograph session, no immediate stripping of the men’s Roulette Title and returning back to its rightful owner (AKA me), no shot at the World Championship, no lap dance from Ms. Rocky Mountains, no orgy with the hot bombshells, no watching Sam Marlowe make out with Melody……...
Okay, you know what? Forgot the last three examples or get a visit from Cyrus and Andreas, your choice!
“Okay, err, how do you spell your name?” I asked rather sheepishly to the Japanese fan in front of me for what was the fifth time today, yeah, I’ve been in Japan for just under a month now and I’m still not sure how to write in Japanese, hell, have you seen Japanese writing?! That shit’s more complicated than algebra and I hate both of those things! To make matters worse Mark didn’t send a Japanese guy along to help me with the writing so most of the fans have had to help me write their names in Japanese, what the fuck did I do to deserve this?! “There you go, next!”
“Love you Steve!” The female fan said as she walked off and I sighed as I continued to sign autographs.
“Cyrus, Andreas, how long have I been signing autographs again? My hand’s starting to get cramps!” I muttered to my bodyguards and they shrugged. “If only they had provided me with a guy who can write in Japanese.”
“I can.” Cyrus commented and I turned to him.
“Why didn’t you say so sooner?!” I asked with an annoyed look on my face and Cyrus shrugged. “Fuck it, someone get a chair for Cyrus, he’s helping me write!” I called out to the staff and, after it was translated, an aide grabbed a chair and placed one behind Cyrus who quickly sat down. “Okay, here’s how it’s going to work, Cyrus, you tell me which squalidly lines to write and I take it from there!”
“I’m not even going to get into the cultural insensitivity you just displayed in front of a crowd of Japanese fans.” Cyrus said with an annoyed sigh as he ran his hand down his face. “At least it’ll be good PR!” Cyrus added as he showed me how to write the next person’s name down.
“Fuck PR! I should be training for my rematch!” I responded and Cyrus shook his head.
“You’ve had all week to train and you spent it either looking up porn or playing Dungeons and Dragons!” Cyrus responded as he continued to help me. “Don’t think I can’t hear the porn sounds from your laptop, my bed’s right next to yours! And besides, try saying “fuck PR” to Mark’s face and see how long it takes for you to get another title shot!”
“He won’t let a stupid statement like that stop me from getting titles! He likes me too much!” I responded and Cyrus shook his head before I posed for a photo op with a couple of fans. “And I was reeling from that spear!”
“If you were speared through a flaming table into a tank full of piranhas with Nile Crocodiles patrolling the outside of the tank I’d understand, instead you were just hit with an especially hard spear after you tried to steal the title, again.” Cyrus responded as we signed more autographs and I shook my head.
“You mean the title that I only lost because Jacob Summers is the dumbest fucking referee in wrestling history!” I responded through gritted teeth and Cyrus shook his head again. “Don’t shake your head at me! You know that I’m speaking the truth!”
“Sorry to interrupt the lover’s quarrel but your almost done.” Andreas commented with a cheeky grin on his face and we looked up seeing only one fan remaining. “Who is the money going too anyway?”
“Mark said that I’m keeping it, though I will give a portion to Cyrus for helping me out.” I responded as I signed the last fan’s autograph and sat back. “Might want to wait until the end of the tour though, more specifically once I get it changed into dollars, I still haven’t wrapped my head around Japanese Currency.”
“Join the club.” Cyrus commented as he shook his head and the aids started to put away the table. “Anyway we’re going to get the car ready, you’ve got a promo to do, right?”
“No, I’m just going to go into the store and ask where the dirty magazines are, what do you think?!” I asked sarcastically and Cyrus sighed to himself before standing up and walking off with Andreas, now that I was alone I got started on my promo!
“I was this close from righting a wrong, correcting that idiotic referee’s mistake by taking back my title but no! James had to take back something that doesn’t even belong to him in the first place! And to top it all off I’m finally getting my fucking rematch with that thief and it’s not even for the title and two punks who have no business being in the title scene in the fucking first place are going to decide our fates in a match that Stevie fucking Wonder could see has obvious connotations for Into the Void!”
Seriously, why hasn’t that idiot been fired yet?!
“Throw in the Towel? Why not be honest and just call it “I beat Tuscini to hell and back whilst Ryan and Matt watch from ringside with bags of popcorn in their hands” because he all know that’s what’s really going to happen! Why are these punks even involved in this match to begin with? And don’t say “Matt Spears is the rightful number one contender” because a bull with explosive diarrhea wouldn’t produce that much bullshit! Matt Spears may have won the match at Blaze of Glory and again just last week but I’m the rightful number one contender because of one thing, REMATCH CLAUSE!”
I know I’ve been saying those two words a lot but still!
“Setting aside the fact that the right thing to do in the Electric Cage match was to call for a draw due to double knockout regardless of who landed on who the rematch clause is in my contract and I’m entitled to a rematch! James is a thief and I don’t know why the morons in charge are taking his side by not giving me the rematch for the title that I am entitled too! If the higher ups had any common sense Jacob would’ve been on the first flight home from Hiroshima following the Hiroshima Screwjob and I’d still be the champion because I never should’ve lost the title in the first place!”
I said as I glared at the camera.
“James, following the match where I finally take back what’s rightfully mine you will go to your rightful place, the back of the fucking line alongside Matt Spears and maybe Ryan Keys where you belong! In the meantime, I will take my rightful place as Roulette Champion again and this match will be a warm-up for me and absolute hell for you James! Tell me James, do you watch Game of Thrones? If so then great because you’ll understand what I mean when I say that you’ll wish that you had been sent to the wall after I’m done with you!”
It’s that simple!
“And if you don’t watch Game of Thrones, where the fuck have you been?! That’s right, stealing things but I’d expect nothing less from a mafia guy! This Sunday I’m only going to steal one thing and that’s the show at Climax Control and by extension Into the Void IV which is pretty fitting because after I take back what’s rightfully mine any hopes you’ll have of holding that title again will be lost in a void never to be seen again!”
And with that I decided to wrap things up.
“I know I sound like a broken record but as far as I’m concerned I’m the only one talking sense around here! James is a thief and has no claim to that and Jacob never should’ve been hired in the first place, for fuck’s sake my Labrador Puppy could do a better job of refereeing a match than that moron! In the meantime, though if I where you James I’d hope that Ryan throws in the towel as soon as possible because there won’t be much of you left when I’m done! This message has been brought to you and paid for by “The Fearless One” Steve Ramone, the champ the fans deserve because I will make SCW great again!”
I left to track down Cyrus and Andreas as the scene fades.
