Agostino's discovery of being in an SCW title match. Las Vegas, Nevada. Monday 19th October (Off Camera)
In his hotel room in Las Vegas, Agostino's chilling in the living room, watching an action movie of Terminator two. He lets his parrot skittles fly around the room, happily tweeting as it's been a while since Agostino allowed Skittles room around the room, although he petted him, stroking him and kissing Skittles. It gave Agostino something to do at times. Two hours later, Terminator two film had finished as he turns the laptop on. As he waits for the laptop to load up, he says this.
Agostino Romano: "Let's see what messages the fans have given me today on the fan club forum."
Skittles: "Fan club forum? What do you mean?"
Agostino Romano: "You know, where the fans can interact with me instead of pointless twitter. A lot easier for me to connect and let the fans show me pics with them or other stuff. I've had this since I was a motorcycle rider."
Skittles: "Ah, yes, I forgot you had that still."
Skittles came down and landed on Agostino's shoulder, and Agostino has to log in his e-mail and password to get to using the net and other things you can do with a laptop. A few seconds later, he clicks on google chrome, and the home page states his fan club forum. As the page uploaded, he saw there were new messages on the fan club interaction page.
As Agostino clicked on it, there were a lot of messages wishing him good luck. There was one he saw that struck him like a bullet. Agostino clicked on it and saw a picture of Agostino with the SCW title around his waist. Agostino shrugged it off because he has seen pictures of things like that drawn by hand before, but suddenly, there were a lot more messages as he scrolled down, even on the pinned Agostino interaction thread as well.
Agostino Romano: "Um, I have to text James and Declan about this."
Agostino gave them a quick text in case they were busy. It took a while for Agostino to shake off the news he had just heard. Suddenly five minutes later of the discovery of what's happening, there was a knock on the door, and Agostino got up from his laptop, and he opens the door to Declan and James. They walked into Agostino's room which led to Agostino bringing them to the laptop room.
Agostino Romano: "Is it true that the fans are saying what I texted?"
Declan Marshall: "What do you mean?"
Agostino Romano: "Can't you see these messages here?"
Declan and James went closer to Agostino's laptop, and the news shook even them. So Declan texted Mark to see if the rumours were true. Ten minutes later, got the text back with the answer and Declan says this.
Declan Marshall: "What the hell are we doing in here then if you got this match of a lifetime coming up?"
Agostino Romano: "I don't know, I only found out just now from the fans. Ugh, I don't know if I'm ready for this match like at all."
James Brown: "You said this last time, and you were fine."
Agostino Romano: "Last time it wasn't for a solo's title, it was for the mixed tag titles. Last time, it wasn't for the World Championship title. God, it feels a decade ago I've said that."
Declan Marshall: "I'll be honest as to why you got this title match, and it will sound a little crazy. You almost had Austin beat for the briefcase. Whether you won or not is irrelevant, but you came close to beating a former champion himself. Imagine what you can do against Jack Washington."
Agostino didn't feel it was anything special to him. It was a regular ladder match with a briefcase hanging above the ring. Agostino already shrugged off the loss, like it was natural for him to lose. It's one of Agostino's most significant strength to not care too much about losing.
James Brown: "Declan is right, you know. Besides, a lot of wrestlers have left this sport, including the one you talked about last week, you know about Senor Vinnie with the talking cactus. Left the sport for some reason."
Agostino Romano: "Such a shame because I would've loved to have faced him and wear a talking cactus costume, but there was one positive thing that came out of all of this, Austin gave me a future idea for a video. I don't know why I didn't think of the idea, but it's a good one I'll use."
Declan Marshall: "Oh, god."
James and Declan had to laugh at the thought of what Austin said, and it was a bad idea for him to mention something like that, giving Agostino encouragement to do something silly. Agostino heard Declan say oh god, but at the same time, James wanted to respond to something like what Austin mentioned.
James Brown: "But that's nothing to do with Halloween show."
Agostino Romano: "Of course not, it's an idea for after a title match I already have my Halloween costume sorted that I ordered on Amazon a few weeks ago. Arrives on Wednesday as they got to design it specially. Can't wait to receive my costume."
Declan Marshall: "What is the costume design you got?"
Agostino Romano: "You have to wait and find out when it arrives."
James Brown: "Now you found out you've got a title match against Jack Washington and I know, you don't feel you're ready for it, but it's what happened here and it is scary, coming in your first ever solos title match and be in a world championship one. We got to get you to the gym."
Declan Marshall: "You aren't wrong, James. Come on, Agostino, grab your gym things together and work out right now. We're doing this more than once a day, doing it twice a day until a day before the match where you'll rest. Let's go."
Agostino nodded his head as he turns the television off and places skittles in the cage after flying everywhere, topping up his food and water. He went into his bedroom and got his gym gear ready and puts them in a large bag with his number design on it and his logos from his racing days. Agostino placed his workout gear bag over his shoulder. He puts his hotel key card in his pocket and leaves the hotel room with Declan and James waiting outside of his room. As he closed his door, they head down to the gym and go to workout to start training for the title match.

Agostino's discussion about Jack and the surprise package. Las Vegas, Nevada. Wednesday 21st October (Off Camera)
As Agostino did four hours worth of training every single day since Monday, he had been sweating a lot, more than he usually would for wrestling matches. He saw a package, sitting outside the doorstep of his hotel room. Had Amazon Prime logos all over it and Agostino nods, wondering if one of the hotel staff brought his package up to his room. He unlocks his hotel room door and walks in his room with the largish package. He tosses it on the sofa as Skittles says this.
Skittles: “Hello Agostino.”
Agostino Romano: “Hello Skittles.
Agostino stroked Skittles the parrot with his finger as Skittles closes his eyes and enjoys the attention Agostino gave him before he went back to the sofa. James and Declan come in the room and saw the package on the couch as Agostino places the package on his knees with James and Declan sitting next to him as Skittles says hello to James and Declan which they say hello back.
Declan Marshall: "Is this your Halloween costume?"
James Brown: "He did say it was arriving today. Must be it, unless Agostino has other plans."
Agostino Romano: "It is it. Oh, I haven't forgotten the other plan. After I've opened this, I'll go online and order the other costume now."
It was clear that despite the intense training Agostino had done the last couple of days and will continue, until Saturday, he hadn't forgotten about Austin's plan of what he mentioned about being a piece of fruit. He waits a while for his laptop to load and placing his login details in. As he clicked on google chrome, he went on amazon and typed in what Agostino needed, and as soon as he found a perfect costume, Agostino pays for it and states it will get sent on Monday.
Declan Marshall: "What did you order?"
Agostino Romano: "The idea Austin had for me. I thought it was brilliant."
James Brown: "Glad you haven't lost your sense of humour."
Agostino Romano: "Of course not, being funny and entertaining is who I am as a person and a wrestler as well. I don't give a damn what Jacko said to me last time. He can make opinions about me, but I learnt to grow from all of that from when fans of Global Bike Championship didn't like me, the same way as Marc Lopez got treated, but far less than him."
Declan Marshall: "That's exactly the right attitude to have in the wrestling business. I do think being in a different sport helped you to cope with that. I've heard some death threats about you even from those fans which were disgusting."
Agostino Romano: "As you said, it helped me a lot to cope with the negativity from fellow competitors and fans alike. I won't go into detail what Jack said as that's the past. I look towards the future and instead focus on the comments he said about Alex which I thought, hm, that's not exactly true, is it?"
This left Declan and James completely lost on what Agostino was talking about as they didn't listen to other people's videos unless it was Agostino's opponent. It left Declan to widen his eyes, already seeing Agostino in his spare time, learning about Jack without them studying his videos for matches.
Declan Marshall: "Wow, you seem to be fully prepared, then if you already researched the videos of Jack without me telling you to."
Agostino Romano: "Of course because it was the mistakes I made, but then again Kris only came back to SCW, so I didn't know much if anything about him, compared to Jack who came just about the same time as I did, just a bit earlier with the tag tournament. He's a fool."
James Brown: "It's impressive you're already watching his videos, mostly after you've done training. I think it's a shame you don't want to hit back at Jack's comments, but I also respect that you don't give a damn about them."
Agostino Romano: "No, I don't because it's what children do, and I can't believe some people whine and cry about negative comments. So people want to be negative and say bad things? Big deal, it's not going to change me, and I won't cry about the comments Jack made last time."
Declan and James applaud Agostino for keeping his head straight, which was something a lot of wrestlers can do a lot with. Agostino was a different kind of wrestler who tends to ignore everything people say about him. However, despite him mentioning Jack, he hadn't mentioned the important thing about the match.
Declan Marshall: "Also win that title. You know you'd be breaking records. We've seen born and bred wrestlers to American Football players to boxers and even MMA stars being wrestling champions as well as champions in those sports. Still, the difference is that Motorcycle racing isn't a combat punch to the mat."
Agostino Romano: "But if you crash, you can hit pretty hard, sometimes harder than wrestlers get. I'm more excited about the Halloween match types for the title match. If I can be a World Champion in Global Bike Championship, no reason why I can't in wrestling, although it will be word breaking stuff."
James Brown: "I'm curious as to why you've not opened your package yet. Come on, Agostino, enough talking about Jack. Let's see what Halloween costume you got for yourself."
Agostino Romano: "Of course, but little does Jack know, I went to dig about the other part of his career-long before he joined SCW, giving him a payback or two that Alex Jones should've mentioned, but didn't for some reason. I tell you in my video, but for now, get a sneaky preview as to what I'm wearing for the video coming up for the title match."
At this point, the door closes, not able to see what's inside of the package. Still, from the reaction of James and Declan of hearing the laughter from them, it's something funny and out of the ordinary from the sounds of the laughter of things which was typical of Agostino, doing something completely different from everyone. Half an hour later, James and Declan leave the room and Agostino after four hours of training and after opening his Halloween costume, went to turn the TV on to watch another action movie called The Expendables before going straight to sleep when the film finished.

An unusual wacky Halloween costume. Las Vegas, Nevada. Saturday 24th October (On Camera)
The room was in complete darkness where they were, but when red lasers were going off, turns out Agostino wasn't in a particular room at all. He was in a special laser zone that while he was wearing a plastic protective amour and having a plastic gun to shoot, he was also wearing what looked like a pumpkin skull costume where it's orange, black and white gear. It occurred as to why James and Declan were laughing the other night as Agostino popped back up and stuck his tongue out to the camera and then continues playing laser quest with a few people in the hotel.
Agostino Romano: "Ah, how great it is to locate yourself down here. Has anyone done videos while playing laser quest? I didn't think so, but I questioned myself in the beginning, how did I get this title shot? It came down to one thing, coming so close to beat Austin for the briefcase the other day and I would've won if Austin didn't play possum and I give Austin credit for that. At least I didn't demand a title shot, unlike Jack to get his title shot because he came close to defeating Ben."
Agostino running around with the gun and amour on him and trying to scare James and Declan and almost acted like he was a ghost, but trying to eat them as he caught James and pretended to eat him as a pumpkin skull. Agostino's having a bit of fun.
Agostino Romano: "I get it, Jack, I know your miserable at times when you do videos for your matches and barely appear on the shows with your title. Clearly shows your lack of care of being a champion already. I know you don't like being praised for some reason, but I do for capturing the title from Alex Jones. Alex Jones isn't a slouch to beat in the ring whatsoever. Of course, you came close to beating Ben Jordan for the belt, but I think I spoke about that before."
Agostino shoots James and got him on the back of his amour with it flashing when being shot, but Agostino quickly runs from Declan, trying to get him. At the same time, James laughs at Agostino for playing laser quest with a pumpkin skull on his head, but he walks like a Frankenstein around the laser quest game and continues.
Agostino Romano: "You may have noticed Jacko that I'm not going to respond to your comments you made about me a few months ago because I don't give a damn about them. Mainly because I came from a sport where I got criticized a lot, so it's not a big deal to me, what is your comments you made to Alex Jones, telling him your entertaining and charismatic. Maybe you are when you face him, but when compared to me, you're not, are you? You're the farthest away from it. I don't call sitting at the casino table or sitting on a balcony talking to the camera entertaining or charismatic at all. It's what boring wrestlers like you do and makes yourself like a piece of white bread."
That might've gone a bit too far with Agostino, but when it came down to it, he didn't care what he said or the past as he still runs around, shooting at his friends with his pumpkin skull on. He painted the pumpkin to have white and black on it as well as showing some orange on it.
Agostino Romano: "I bet you'll do the same old thing, being serious and sending me to sleep because you are exactly like Alex when it comes to me. I know something about you that nobody has discussed before, which will surprise you while I run away being a pumpkin skull. Do you remember when you were in Division Wrestling when you held New Blood title which stupidly your boss gave without knowing you had no experience and done nothing with your career? Oh, I watched you dominate Chase Adams for the belt, but do you know what the problem with that was?"
Agostino might hit a low belt with the whole thing, but it showed how badly Agostino wanted to be a world champion again, although in a different sport. He disappears from the camera, but he says a loud boom from the back of the laser room. He suddenly got shot from Declan. Agostino runs around and fires Declan back, saying pumpkin head to him. Agostino laughed.
Agostino Romano: "You didn't even want to defend the belt on Battlefront shows or care about the title. You were forced to defend it at Insurrection PPV. What happened in your first defence? You lost it to Sebastian Conner. A few weeks later, you whined and cried about it. I may have never held a title or even had a solo's title until now, but I never whined and cried when I crashed out of races or when I lost the World Championship. I wouldn't if I lost a title belt either. Then you claimed Sebastian got lucky? Yikes on being a crybaby over it. I'm surprised Alex Jones didn't discuss your Division Wrestling career with you."
Agostino smirked, getting a little arrogant about his achievements in the racing world. Still, while it's a different sport, it wasn't dissimilar to holding a World Championship in racing, but you defend the title more in wrestling. Agostino stops to take a candy break, using a pumpkin trick or treat bowl to eat out of.
Agostino Romano: "Call me a pumpkin head or a fool all you want, but at least here I have fun with what I do because it's who I am. You can entertain people you know because this sport is based on creativity, didn't you know that? Of course not because you do videos the same as everyone else like why don't wrestlers have fun doing videos? Are you going to say words like Agostino got lucky and I robbed you from taking a title away from you? Are you going to cry about it like a spoilt brat you are? Because I shrug off every loss, I had. The only time I get serious is when I wrestle inside of a wrestling ring and in this case, taking that title away from you. I want to prove to the entire world that I can be successful coming from a non-contact sport because it's never happened in sports history."
Agostino had a few more words to say which was a lot longer than usual. Still, while he hates to show seriousness, he wasn't at the same time, having fun to run around and chasing Declan and James after eating candy and drops some on the floor, not caring if his friends slip up, to cause a laugh.
Agostino Romano: "It takes talent to be successful in other sports, even more so that there's nothing more I want than to take that title away from you. You only hold the title because of championship money. I don't need that crap because I have plenty of it. I need the title because to prove to the entire world that I'm capable of being the entertainer and charismatic wrestler as well as being able to beat you in the middle of the ring. I will be dominating you, causing a massive upset to win this match because I can. I also like the idea of this match having Halloween themed events because I like fun wacky matches and it's something I believe I can win."
Agostino shoots Declan and James around the laser quest place, freely enjoying himself and having the fun of his life. He smirks, showing his arrogance, but in a more excellent way.
Agostino Romano: "I will cause an upset and beat you hands down because you aren't anything special, other than beating Alex for the title and your too spoilt to care for defending the belt. I will pin you for the three count because unlike you, I have a lot of years ahead of me and I will win the title to prove I'm the best motorcycle rider and wrestler in the world, breaking records which nobody else can do, not even yourself. Also that I've been working out every single day for four hours twice a day to prepare myself for this match to prove how badly I want to win the title from you. I will walk out of the arena with the SCW title. After all, you will not view me as a threat and ignore me altogether because you always do, but I do view you as a threat, and you will regret overlooking me, laughing of you crying over a loss. See you on Sunday."
Agostino continued to play laser quest not and adequately caring for any of the comments Jack said, otherwise he would've addressed them, and he didn't care. He continued having fun because that's how Agostino did things with his videos. He played another hour of laser quest shooting before he stopped as his hour was up and left to his hotel room to chill for the day with his parrot.
