Exact Location: Tiki Bar on upper deck
Time: Friday. Late Morning
As the scene opens we see Ashton Gibbs standing next to an empty Tiki Bar. He is wearing a pair of black board shorts, white tank top, blade shades, and a white visor tilted to the side. As we watch him he appears to be losing his patience. He is looking in many different directions and appears to be searching for something.
Ashton Gibbs:
Yo…Little help here!
Ashton’s demand goes unheard, as there is still no one else in the picture. He stops looking around for a moment and leans over the bar. As the camera zooms in on his face we see a look of exhaustion and defeat. He really doesn’t look like the normal lively and chipper person we are used to seeing. There’s showing from his face and he just looks drained. He remains leaning there staring down at the bar.
Ashton Gibbs:
Damn…what does a brotha gotta do to get a drink around here?
And as if god answered his prayer; a younger male cruise line employee emerges from the back. He is wearing a pair of khaki shorts and a white button down shirt. He walks right up to Ashton, who doesn’t realize that the bartender as appeared.
Bartender:
Can I help you sir?
Ashton Gibbs:
Wha….
Ashton jumps up and appears spooked. Actually we see a half-cocked fist pop up when he hears the voice.
Bartender:
Sorry sir… I didn’t mean to startle you.
Ashton lowers his hand and relaxes after this overreaction. He doesn’t respond right away. Instead he slowly takes a seat on one of the bar stools. The way he is moving he appears like he is really out of it. Ashton raises his head up to the bartender.
Ashton Gibbs:
I need a strong drink my man…
Bartender:
Oh…ok…well usually we don’t open up this bar until 11:00. I’m actually just getting here to get stuff set up and ready to go. If you come back in a little bit I should be ready to go.
Ashton gets a look of disgust on his face. He looks down at the watch on his wrist.
Ashton Gibbs:
Fifteen minutes…you’re going to make me wait fifteen minutes….I don’t think so…Listen…this is what we’re going to do. My ass is going to stay sitting right here, you’re going to put a drink in my hand, and then you can go on with your setup bullshit.
The kid stands there looking stunned at the orders Ashton just gave him. I’m sure on the inside he wants to tell this customer off. However you can see in his face that he realizes that wouldn’t be his best move to turn down this angry black guy. A smile comes across his face as he says..
Bartender:
Sure…I don’t see why I can’t make that happen for you…So what can I get ya?
Ashton Gibbs:
Jack and Coke.
The kid goes back and makes the drink for Ashton. He wastes no time bringing it to him, and Ashton waits even less time slamming back a big drink. Seeing Ashton in this aggressive state is pretty new to us. He’s usually one that stays pretty loose and joke around, but clearly there is something bothering him. The bartender tries to make small talk while he sets up behind the bar.
Bartender:
So looks like you really needed that drink. Biting the hair of the dog, huh?
Ashton Gibbs:
(Confused look) What you saying to me?
Bartender:
You know…just an expression for curing your hangover with more booze..
Ashton Gibbs:
Please…I can handle a hangover…It’s this damn devil boat that has been getting the best of me.
Bartender:
Oh I see….Feeling sea sick, huh?
Ashton Gibbs:
Well…I’ve been on this fucking boat for five days now…or however long it’s been…and I have been puking my guts out over half that time…Plus I haven’t been able to eat…And haven’t been able to sleep…So yeah I think it’s fair to say I’m feeling sea sick.
Bartender:
Damn…sounds rough…I can see why you needed that drink so bad.
And with that the camera fades out…..
1 Hour Later…
The scene opens back up to the same Tiki Bar location. We still see Ashton sitting there, but now there are a few other customers there as well. Also his mood as appeared to change completely, as he is now seen talking to everyone around him. He has a big smile on his face and looks like he is cracking jokes with the bartender. Just then a sexy blonde comes walking up in a pink swimsuit and sits at the end of the bar. She requests (insert girly drink here). The bartender obliges and makes it for here. As he drops it off for her; Ashton yells out.
Ashton Gibbs:
Yo my man…Put that drink on my tab.
The woman accepts as she smiles and cheers her drink in the air towards Ashton. He takes that as a sign that she must want him to come over and talk to her. He approaches with a big smile on his face and takes a seat right next to her.
Ashton Gibbs:
So how are you doing today beautiful?
Women:
Can’t complain. Look at where we are.
She looks around this luxurious ship. As she does Ashton can’t help himself, as he sneaks a peak at her great body in that pink swimsuit.
Ashton Gibbs:
Damn…so what are you doing here by yourself shorty?
Women:
Thought I would come grab a drink while my husband runs around chasing after the wrestlers looking for autographs.
Ashton Gibbs:
Oh…so you’re married huh?
The woman flashes the ring in front of Ashton’s face that he never noticed earlier. She flashes a fake smile while she shows him
Women:
Yup…in fact…we on our honeymoon right now.
Ashton Gibbs:
You’re honeymoon?
She nods as Ashton gets a shocked look on his face. It sounds like her husband is the ultimate douchebag. He takes this as his opportunity to make a move on the married girl.
Ashton Gibbs:
Damn…sounds like you found yourself a winner girl. Instead of taking your ass on a romantic cruise for just the two of you…Like your fine ass deserves…He brings you here so he can chase after all his wrestling heroes…and leaves you all alone? Wow… hubby of the year…He even makes Bobby Brown look great right about now!
Women:
Yeah…but I’m used to it. This is how it was before marriage too. He never makes time for me…But oh well…I could think of worse places to be right now…So I’m just going to enjoy it and make the most of it.
Ashton Gibbs:
But your fine ass shouldn’t have to make the most of it…You need a real man that knows how to treat you just right!
Women:
Think so? Maybe someone like yourself?
Ashton Gibbs:
I’m saying baby…I’m the ultimate gentlemen…I know how to take care of my women..
Women:
Yeah…Yeah…that’s what they all say…
Just then the cruise liner starts to sway a little in the open sea. This causes Ashton to feel some of that sea sickness coming back on. A little gag reflex hits him. He turns away to shield himself from the smoking hot women. He fights off this feeling and turns back to her, but she catches on quick that something is off.
Women:
Looks like someone isn’t made for this cruise. Are you getting a little sea sick on me?
Ashton chooses not to snap at her like he did earlier with the bartender. One; because she is hot and he is trying to get some. And two; he’s in better spirits then before.
Ashton Gibbs:
Nah…I’m good…You know how it goes…sometimes the motion of the ocean tends not to agree with me. Plus just the thought of me possibly falling in the water with all the creatures…doesn’t vibe well with me.
Women:
Creatures?
Ashton Gibbs:
You know…sharks…whales…dolphins
Women:
Dolphins? Don’t tell me you’re afraid of dolphins. They’re so friendly!
Ashton Gibbs:
HAHA…Friendly my ass…A damn dolphin attacked me one time.
Women:
Now you’re just having fun with me…There’s no way a dolphin attacked you..
Ashton Gibbs:
I’m telling you…I was attacked by a dolphin…Here check it out for yourself
Ashton takes out the phone from his pocket of his board shorts. He flips through his pictures quick and then he shows this picture to the women.
Ashton Gibbs:
See…..
Women:
Oh…that’s so cute!
Ashton Gibbs:
Cute…that damn beast tried to bite my face off…I don’t see anything cute
about it! I was scared for my life girl!
The women starts laughing hard hearing him say that. She thinks he is just messing around with her…but is he? Ashton remains sitting there with a serious look on his face. She cuts back on the laughing as she sees this.
Women:
Looks to me like he was trying to give you kisses. They are so friendly and cute.
Ashton Gibbs:
Well not this damn one…The other dolphins were giving all the other people
rides as they were holding onto their fins…but nnnnooooo….not my dolphin…that damn thing just kept spitting water in my face and then as you can see tried to bite me…I was scared for my life girl…
She decides to start playing into this act rather than laugh at him. She comes with a serious tone.
Women:
Did you do anything to provoke it?
Ashton Gibbs:
Not a damn thing….I might of just had a racist dolphin…who the hell knows…
The women kept help but laugh…and that’s how the conversation goes for a few more minutes. Back and forth with Ashton cutting jokes and her laughing at him. No need to air the rest of the conversation, as this is a promo for DJ Williams. Remember? So let’s skip to the good part.
Out of the blue, a bigger guy, wearing nothing but a small ass speedo, comes walking up to them. The guy is holding some sort of magazine in his hands. The guy stands there and just stares at Ashton.
Guy:
You enjoy hitting on my wife boy!
Ashton takes a look at the guy for a moment and sits there in silence. He then leans forward and looks at the magazine the man is carrying.
Ashton Gibbs:
In fact…I did…And I’m pretty sure she enjoyed it too…Plus I see you got some nice freshly signed autographs on that SCW magazine…So I’m sure you’re in heaven too…Seems like we’re all having a great fucking day!
This obviously infuriates the man. He doesn’t say anything. Rather he just starts to slowly get closer to Ashton. He has the look like he is about to punch him any minute. You can tell he is getting a little too close for Ashton’s comfort level. And answers with a mocking tone.
Ashton Gibbs:
Um…ok…how about you just back up a little bit…I don’t need you all in my personal space…thank you
The guy moves in even closer and it looks like there is about to be a fight, but out of nowhere comes DJ Williams. (About time he makes an appearance in his own promo.) He comes walking up in just a pair of Jordan shorts, a silver necklace, and black shades. He approaches and immediately the guy takes his attention off of Ashton and looks at DJ.
DJ Williams:
And what is going on here
Guy:
Oh my god! It’s D-Block! I’ve been trying to track you down for the last few days. Your return was huge a couple weeks ago. Man it’s great to have you back in SCW. You’re one of my favorites!
DJ doesn’t even acknowledge what the guy says and quietly talks to Ashton
DJ Williams:
Dude…what the hell is happening here…And why is this grown ass man drooling over me?
Ashton Gibbs:
Well…I was just sitting here and having a delightful conversation with his wife…And he didn’t appreciate it…But now that you’re here…He seems like he’s too excited to still be mad at me!
The guy doesn’t even seem like he hears Ashton. He continues staring at DJ like he’s a kid in the candy store.
Guy:
Man I’m so stoked to see you fight Jamie Staggs. That match is going to be awesome! Do you think I could get your autograph?
DJ Williams:
Wow…ok…will it make you leave and never talk to me again!
Guy:
If that’s what it takes
The guy hands Ashton the magazine and the pen with much anticipation. It’s quite sad how this grown ass man looks at the moment. You can tell the wife is not very impressed with her new husband, as she looks away and finishes her drink. When DJ finishes he hands the magazine back to the guy. We look down at what was written. “Get a fucking life” –D-Block” . Then just like a well behaved dog. The guy does what he was told and leaves once he gets his autograph. As the guy is leaving DJ yells out.
DJ Williams:
Yo..hold up man!
The guys turns around with a big smile on his face. Thinking maybe DJ wants to have a drink with him. However the guy is about to look like even more of a retard.
DJ Williams:
You forgot your wife!
He goes back and helps her off the stool and they both leave together. You can tell she isn’t so happy about having to go. But the boys have business to discuss and there’s no place for her right now. DJ sits down next to Ashton.
Ashton Gibbs:
Damn dude…you did a good job of getting rid of that loser, but you could have at least kept the girl here.
DJ Williams:
Come on bro…there’s plenty of shorties on this boat…you don’t need to be creepin on the married ones.
Ashton Gibbs:
Creepin? Shit…you saw how big of a tool that guy was…I was doing her a favor and she was into me.
DJ Williams:
Whatever…I thought your ass was still sick anyway.
Ashton Gibbs:
I am...This devil boat ain’t getting any better…Believe me…But I thought it might help to come have a few drinks to take my mind of it…And I couldn’t help but find myself talking to her!
DJ Williams:
Guess you found one plus side to being on this boat…There’s nowhere for these girls to run to when you starting hitting on em!
Ashton Gibbs:
Please…stop playing…women love me…Anyways…where has your ass been this
morning? I tried stopping in your room before I came out here.
DJ Williams:
Gym.
Ashton Gibbs:
Figures…You been living in there all week!
DJ Williams:
What you expect….I’m here to do work…I’m not on this boat for a vacation and to play games like everyone else here in SCW…This shit is all business for me…So you can be damn sure I’m going to have my ass ready for Sunday.
Ashton Gibbs:
I hear ya…I’m just saying…Maybe you hitting it too hard?
DJ Williams:
No such thing my man! I’m getting ready to knock some bitches out come Sunday. I got myself in beast mode!
Ashton Gibbs:
I like where your heads at playa…But care to take a break from all of that for a few minutes and have a drink with your manager?
DJ grants that request and orders a Budweiser from the bartender. The scene fades as the two sit there drinking and talking shop. We pick up one more time with DJ in his room talking one on one with the camera.
Welcome to D-Block
Oh…I hope you’re ready Jamie Staggs. You have a world of hurt coming for you on Sunday my man. I’m not even sure how I’m going to contain myself until our match… I am that amped up for this…. And to be honest, like I said before, it really doesn’t have anything to do with you. Sure there’s a lot about you that rubs me the wrong way...Your childish pranks…You’re frat style partying ways…Even the fact that you think you mean something just because you have the last name “Staggs”….sure I find all of that fucking annoying…But…None of it makes me have a personal vendetta against you….Shit…I have more against others here in SCW than you…So honestly Jamie…This shit ain’t personal…
Truth is…I’m this fired up for this match…because I want to show people just how serious I am about changing the scene of SCW. I made the initial impact a couple weeks ago on Climax Control…And I’m going to bring this shit to an even higher level Sunday night…
And there’s going to be no stopping it going forward either…This match with Jamie is just the beginning. After I get done tearing him apart limb from limb…I’m going to move onto even bigger things here in SCW…I have a lot in store for ya’ll…Just stay tuned…
So Jamie…have all your fun now…Get all of that “dicking” people out of your system, because after our match…I don’t think you’re going to be in the mood to be pulling those antics any longer…In fact…I think the only thing that will be on your mind…is getting yourself better so you can eat solid foods again! Cuz I’m going to bring the fucking pain right to ya…There’s going to be nothing fancy about it either. I’m going to turn this into an all-out brawl…Throwing these fists until your ass is laid Out Cold…Just like I left you a few weeks ago….
And it’s too bad Jamie… Because I know how bad you want to win this match. You want to use this Super Card platform as a way to prove you’re just as good as your brother…That he ain’t better than you like everyone always says. That you ain’t the weaker of the two…I know it would mean a lot to you prove this…But there’s only one problem…Me…Reality is… you know…and I know…that you don’t have what it takes to beat me…So you will have to wait for another time to prove all of that horseshit…Because I’m not going to give you that fairy tale ending to your night…I’ll see you soon Jamie…
