[Steve Ramone]

 Steve and Josh lost the tag team match two weeks ago and where attacked after the match by Tim Staggs who was obviously hoping to prove a point and whilst it seems that the tag team of Steve and Josh is officially dissolved they aren’t done with The Nobodies as Joshua Acquin saved a fan from the Nobodies wrath last week in an incident that saw Tim get fined and now Steve was taking on Tim in singles competition but can he win?

Local Sushi restaurant, Osaka, Japan

Ah sushi, gotta love it!

But there are things that I love even more than Japanese cuisine, my wife, being a champion, my daughter, my soon to be born second child, metal, Bloodstock and off course wrestling in general, that said there are certain pricks in the wrestling world that really need a good kicking and unless you missed the last two shows of the SCW World Tour for some reason you should know who I’m talking about.

That’s right, it’s my opponent Tim Staggs.

Look, I’m an asshole, I admit it, but even I would never attack a fan even if he asked for it! That’s practically asking for your ass to be sued and I don’t care how funny that guy’s name was, seriously what sadistic bastard/bitch calls their kid Dong? Does he have a sister called Dildo? Anyway my point stands, assaulting fans is a line that no wrestler should ever cross no matter what.

And it helps that Tim has the most punchable face in wrestling history!

Anyway as I mentioned earlier me, Cyrus and Andreas are chilling out at a local Sushi restaurant here in Osaka, Japan, I realize that that doesn’t exactly narrow things down because Japan’s practically littered with Sushi Restaurants but this place was the closest one we could find to the hotel and thus here we are.

“I don’t fucking get it!” I commented as I took a sip from my drink. “I superkick Shane Croswell once and get suspended for over a month, Tim Staggs and his goon squad attack some fan with the most unfortunate name I’ve ever heard of and all he gets is a fucking fine!”

“It could be a steep fine for all we know.” Cyrus commented as he drank his drink and I shook my head in response.

“I’ve been wrestling since I was nineteen years old and my wrestling teacher told me this during my first week at the school.” I responded as I folded my arms. “No matter what, never, EVER attack a fan because you’re practically asking them to sue your ass! There is no fine steep enough for that and if Christian had any balls Tim and the rest of the Nobodies would’ve been fired before the show was over!”

“Wouldn’t that have made Alexis the Bombshell with the shortest tenure?” Andreas asked and I shrugged my shoulders in response. “Besides correct me if I’m wrong but isn’t Tim younger than you were when you started wrestling?”

“Yeah, I started training when I was eighteen and made my official debut on my nineteenth birthday, what I want to know is how the fuck did a seventeen year old get into a wrestling academy?” I asked as I took a sip from my drink. “Back when I started you had to be at least eighteen years old to join a wrestling academy and unless his daddy trained him himself at his school I don’t see any self-respecting school taking him on!”

“Nepotism is alive and well in wrestling unfortunately, how else do you explain Tim getting a contract over Andreas?” Cyrus pointed out and Andreas grunted in response. “If his grandfather wasn’t in such a high position then Tim wouldn’t have even seen the light of day in an ASW ring let alone an SCW ring.”

“And I can guarantee that that’s the exact reason why Tim is only paying a fine rather than be kicked out the door!” I responded as the waitress came over with our food, the food was delicious but I still had Tim Staggs on my mind. “And don’t even get me started on that fucking punk’s cowardly attack on me and Acquin after we were already beat!”

“You sure are focused on Tim aren’t you?” Cyrus asked as we finished our meals. “Then again you are facing him at Climax Control.”

“Gee, thanks Sherlock, what’s your next brilliant deduction? That Amanda Cortez is a whore? That J2H has been carried by much better wrestlers throughout his career? And don’t get me started on the fact that Casey Williams is the latest guy to be carrying him! That Connor Murphy joining the Nobodies is fucking hilarious?” I ranted for a bit whilst they tried not to laugh. “I’m waiting.”

“My brilliant deduction is that Tim Staggs has the most punchable face in the history of wrestling.” Cyrus responded and I laughed for a good few minutes at that, as true as it was. “Before his SCW debut J2H had that title followed by Marty McFarge, Erick Staggs and Mark Ward.” Cyrus added and my grin grew wider.

“And the fact that Erick and Tim just happen to be related helps!” I responded with a big grin on my face. “As for Tim, I’ve got plans for him that extend past the upcoming match but I’m not an idiot and as a result I’m not going to reveal them on camera.” I added before checking the time on my watch. “Speaking of which, it’s about time I trash talked.” I added before getting my wallet out and putting some money on the table. “That should cover it, if the waitress asks tell her that I left to get the rental car ready.”

“Will do!” Cyrus responded with a nod and I left the restaurant with my hands in my pockets, once I left the restaurant I turned to the camera.

“I am a gigantic prick!” Yep, that’s how I’m opening things up. “You see? I’m at least honest about that fact! Unlike the Nobodies who like to blame everyone else under the sun for pretty much everything they’ve ever done, attacked a fan? Blame him! Attacked me and Josh? Blame us! The fact that Time Staggs thinks that his family’s legacy is something that lets him get away with anything makes me sick!”

And trust me, I could rant all day about this punk.

“Tim’s official SCW bio states that whilst he’s only been wrestling for two months he has grown up around the business, I don’t believe that for a god damned second! Do you honestly expect me to believe that Spike Staggs never took his son aside and tried to teach him right from wrong? This is Spike Staggs we’re talking about! The guy took a relatively unknown Bombshell by the name of Jessie Salco under his wing just because he could! But who am I kidding, the guy does have a son with the most punchable face in wrestling!”

And yes, I’m going there.

“Hell I wouldn’t be surprised if Spike was ever tempted to punch his own son in the face because of how punchable he is! Seriously the only way that he could be more punchable is if Tim formed an emo band who went on to perform the Nobodies theme song! This week on Climax Control I’m going to do something that your parents should’ve done long ago and that’s beat some sense into you!”

And no, I won’t care if I’m disqualified!

“Tim, do you know how long I’ve been a professional in this business? Eight years! I’ve been wrestling since the age of nineteen and when I joined a wrestling school I was eighteen years old and fresh out of high school, you know what I didn’t have? The opportunities that you have been afforded because your daddy’s a famous wrestler! You know what I did have? Common fucking sense! Throughout my career I have never attacked a wrestling fan, Shane doesn’t count because he’s practically an SCW Employee at this point, and yet here you are attacking a fan with a crowbar!”

I said as I shook my head.

“When I superkicked Shane I got suspended for a month with Christian pretty much telling me that I was THIS CLOSE to getting fired, when you and your idiot squad attack a fan with the world’s most unfortunate name with crowbars and the like you get a fine! I don’t give a fuck who you are or how steep the fine is you should be flipping burgers at McDonalds because Christian fired your ass! If Christian Underwood had any balls whatsoever I’d be facing anyone else on the roster this week on Climax Control but nope! I guess he doesn’t want to piss off daddy, does he Tim!?”

I said as I folded my arms.

“You can deny it all you want but the fact of the matter is that if your name was Tim Jones you wouldn’t have even joined a wrestling school at this point because no self-respecting wrestling school accepts applicants who are seventeen years old! Yes, I plan on entering my children into the wrestling business but the main difference is that they won’t see the inside of a ring until they are eighteen years old! My point is Tim is that you are a punk who leaches off his family’s legacy and doesn’t belong in the ring!”

And with that I decided to wrap things up.

“But don’t take my word for it Tim, I’ll just let my actions in the ring do the talking for me! Not only will I kick your ass from pillar to post in this match but I will make an example out of you, more specifically the fact that hiring someone just because their daddy’s famous is a terrible business strategy and it shows with you!” I said before my ringtone, Kingdom by Battle Beast, rang out. “My point is that I will beat some common sense into you the same way your daddy should’ve long ago, this message has been paid for and delivered by “The Fearless One” Steve Ramone, the champion the fans deserve!”

I answered my phone as Cyrus and Andreas approached me.

“Wait, Charlotte’s gone into labour?!”

And with that cliff-hanger the scene fades.
