(("Loverboy" Vinnie Lane is back in the Phoenix area gym with his entourage of friends and band mates, preparing for another grueling training session for his mach at XWF Relentless. The crew are sitting on benches, rifling through their gym bags and pulling out various pieces of equipment to use in the ring. Loverboy is clearly a little worse for wear, having a little bit of a shiner from his repeated training spots with Donny Brooks the day before. The big Irishman isn't exactly in perfect condition either, though, as is evident from the gingerly way he moves while changing.))

Loverboy: Great job yesterday, Donny. You really taught me a lot, and got me ready for Sebastian Duke's power and style, dude.

Donny: Yeah, yeah, Loverboy... you got a hard head, I'll give you that. I don't know if you're tough or stupid.

Loverboy: Ha ha! From you, dude, I'll take that as a compliment!

Donny: Good. I think. Just don't blame me when you're sore every day this week. And definitely don't blame me when your back is too bent out of shape to take it to these pretty desert girls.

Loverboy: Man, you beat me up, Donny, but you didn't kill me - and that's the only way you could keep me off of these tan, toned hotties. You know I took a coed back to the room after we went out last night.

Donny: Yeah, Vinnie, I seen you leaving with her, but you definitely weren't walking with that same spring in your step.

((Alex Braun tosses his t-shirt at Loverboy and Donny, getting their attention.))

Alex: If you two lovebirds don't mind, can you quit jerking each other off about how great you both are?

((Loverboy grins and stands up, pulling on his elbow pads as he hi fives Alex.))

Loverboy: Attaboy, Alex! Keep the pressure on, dude. You know it's you and me today, right man?

Alex: Oh really? You sure you don't have a concussion, Loverboy?

Loverboy: Maybe... but you know, honestly Alex, you're the best submission specialist I've ever seen, dude. You're about the same size as Enigma, too.

Donny: So he's a little guy?

Alex: Shove it, Brooks.

Loverboy: Yeah, Donny, Enigma is like almost the same size as me, too.

Donny: Yeah, that's what I said, Vinnie!

Loverboy: Smart ass, as always. Alex, are you ready to get stretched?

Alex: Loverboy, you sure you aren't still drunk from last night buddy? You don't have a chance in this ring with me. You've never beaten me, even in training.

Loverboy: I don't need to win, Alex, I just need to work on my submissions and chain wrestling. And I need to test my endurance in those sick submission holds you have!

Alex: Whatever, it's your funeral.

((Alex extends his hand for Loverboy to give him a fist bump, and then wanders over and rolls into the ring. Loverboy follows him under the bottom rope, and before he can even get to his feet Alex is on him, grabbing his head in a front face lock and rolling him over, then floating up and over him into a mount. Loverboy grabs wildly at Alex, but Alex immediately gets a hold of his wrist and wrenches backward into an armbar. Loverboy frantically thrashes for a second but then desperately starts tapping.))

Loverboy: Damn it, dude! I wasn't even ready yet.

Alex: You need to be ready as soon as you walk to the ring, Vinnie. You think Enigma is going to wait while you warm up? That guy is going to try to break your arms and legs every time he gets his hands on you, believe that.

Loverboy: Okay... okay... you're right. How do I get out of it?

Alex: You don't. At least not if Enigma is half as good as I am. You could try to reverse the pressure and roll into it, maybe lift him into a slam, but you're not any bigger or stronger than him, and if he has an armbar locked that tight on you he'll snap it in half in ten seconds. Your best bet is to get to the ropes. Stay near the ropes, Vinnie.


Loverboy: Gotcha... okay, good... let's go again.

((Loverboy stands and moves to the center of the ring, where Alex meets him. They lock up, and Alex quickly transitions into an arm wrench and then a hammerlock. Loverboy uses his basic chain wrestling skills to reverse, but Alex was baiting him. Alex drops into a drop toe hold and grabs onto Loverboy's foot, wrapping his own legs around Lane's and sinking in a kneebar. This time, Loverboy immediately starts dragging himself to the bottom rope, grabbing on and forcing Alex to let go of the hold.))

Alex: Good job, Vinnie. Keep him frustrated. Get him out of his game plan. Enigma is a cocky son of a bitch from what I've seen. He barely even addresses you, like you don't exist. He's going into this match thinking you are a nobody, and the easiest way to get into his head is going to be to frustrate him. Get to the ropes quick, or when he starts to go for a hold, just disengage and create some separation. He'll get pissed that you keep slipping away and he'll make mistakes.

Loverboy: I'll look like a pussy if I keep ducking his moves. I want to go toe to toe with him!

Alex: Vinnie, listen to me. You have to get him out of his comfort zone first. Make him doubt his own ability. Then you can match moves with him. You're a great counter wrestler, Vinnie. You have a good move set, you're quick, you're unpredictable - but submission wrestling is my game. I know what I'm talking about here.

Loverboy: So, just stay close to the edges, and don'tlet him get a good grip?

Alex: Pretty much, man. You ready for more?

((Loverboy smiles and nods, then backs into the ropes and bounces forward. The two friends once again lock up in a collar and elbow tie up, and Alex once again starts out in control, placing Loverboy into a side headlock. Loverboy quickly grabs Alex around the waist and twists his upper body into a side suplex. Alex rolls to the corner and gets to his feet as Loverboy rushes in, and slides to the side just as he jumps forward in a dropkick. Loverboy crotches himself on the top buckle with a grunt, and Alex moves in right away, grabbing Lane by the shoulders and jumping backward into a back stabber that leaves Loverboy hanging in the tree of woe. Alex sends a boot into Loverboy's gut and then unhooks his foot from the corner, dropping him onto the canvas. Loverboy attempts to get up but is then kicked down by Alex Braun who then rolls Loverboy over and drops a knee onto his upper body. Loverboy sits up just as Alex runs the ropes and goes for a shining wizard, which Loverboy avoids and then rolls up to his feet. Alex stays on him, always bringing pressure, grabbing Loverboy's head in a front chancery. Loverboy grabs him back and snap suplexes Alex onto the mat. Alex winces as he sits up, and Loverboy sends a dropkick into the back of his head. Alex is stunned and on all fours, which gives Loverboy the opportunity to run the ropes and hit a guillotine-style legdrop across the back of Braun's head. Alex stumbles to his feet and is grabbed right away by Loverboy, who spins him and flings him into the corner turnbuckles hard enough to rebound him right back out and into spinning armdrag.))

Dave: Get him, Vinnie! He's disoriented! Hit him hard!

((Loverboy moves in and armwrenches Alex, placing a knee on the back of his head as he bends him over in preparation for a Knee-Driver, his favorite setup move, but Alex picks his ankle and drops him onto his back. Still holding Loverboy's ankle, Alex cross his legs together and turns in, twisting into a half scorpion, then buries both of his knees into Loverboy's spine. He grabs him by the chin and rolls back into his finisher, the Deep Freeze! Loverboy is wailing in pain as his back is wrenched over Alex's knees, and he can't reach him with any of his desperate punches.))

Alex: This is what you wanted, right Vinnie? You want to test your limits?

Loverboy: Aaaaaah! Aaaah, shit, shit! Fuck, Alex!

((Loverboy wriggles and is in obvious pain, but doesn't quit. He desperately throws his weight back and forth, attempting to get closer to the ring ropes.))

Alex: That's good Vinnie... don't you quit... don't you fucking quit... you might be right here with Enigma on Friday... block out the pain...

((Suddenly, Loverboy manages to free one of his legs from the scorpion position and slides off of Alex's knees. Alex looks both annoyed and impressed as he stands up and moves toward Lane, who is still on his stomach on the canvas, grabbing at his lower back. A fistful of hair gets Loverboy standing, and Alex whips him into the ropes, catching him in a tilt-a-whirl backbreaker as he comes back. Loverboy is agony, and Alex gets him by his legs again, spinning a toehold and dropping down into a tight figure four leglock.))

Alex: You got anything left, Vinnie? What are you going to do if Enigma catches you like this? Think!

((Loverboy screams, but somehow manages to arch his back and get his weight onto his elbows, relieving some of the pressure. He raises an arm straight up, and Alex does as well, trying to counter the momentum, but it's too late. Loverboy rolls them both over and the pressure of the hold is reversed onto Alex, who grits his teeth and struggles to loose himself from Loverboy's entangled legs. With a moment to gather himself, Loverboy manages to get up just as Alex rushes at him, and catches him in a fast powerslam. He drops a rapid elbow, then another, then rolls Alex to his stomach and moves to lock in an STF. Alex kicks his leg free, though, but Loverboy was anticipating it! He grabs Alex's exposed head and wrenches backward in a Dragon Clutch! Alex struggles but has nowhere to go! He angrily slaps the mat twice as Donny and the Disintigrators cheer outside the ring. Loverboy lets Alex go and stands up smiling.))

Johnny: God dammit boy! You tapped out the Iceman!

Donny: Holy shit, kiddo! I didn't think it could be done!

Loverboy: I got lucky... Jesus, my back... Alex, man, you just about broke me in half!

((Loverboy extends a hand, offering to help Alex get to his feet, but Alex slaps it away and gets up on his own.))

Alex: Damn right you're lucky.

Loverboy: Dude, what, are you pissed? Come on, it's just training!

Alex: I haven't wrestled in years, Vinnie, but when I did I never tapped. Not in a match, not in a sparring session - and definitely not to you.

Loverboy: Aw man, come on!

Alex: You got your training. I'm done here. I'm going back to the hotel.

((Alex stomps out of the gym, grabbing his duffel bag as he heads out the door. Loverboy just shrugs at his friends who all look uncomfortable.))

Donny: Ah, Vinnie, he'll be fine. He'll get over it. You know how Alex is with his pride and all. I'll talk to him later and we'll all be laughing over some whisky in no time, man.

Loverboy: Yeah... yeah, I guess you're right. He really helped me today, I hate to see him so mad. I'm going to be way more ready for Enigma's techniques this Friday at Relentless, and I've got Alex to thank. I think we ought to wrap it up for the day, guys.

((The four of them move back to their bags and start to get everything together, just as Alex walks back into the gym with a somber look on his face.))

Alex: Vinnie... look, I'm sorry man. You didn't deserve that attitude. You beat me, straight up. And really I ought to thank you.

Loverboy: Thank me? But you're the one helping me out, man! I would be a sitting duck against Enigma on Friday if not for you, dude!

Alex: Maybe. But you really lit a fire in me today, brother. I'm thinking about getting back into ring shape. What do you think?

Loverboy: No shit? Oh, man, that would be so sweet!

((Loverboy garbs Alex in a hug, slapping him on the back and laughing. The rest of the guys all smile as the two close friends bury the hatchet.))

Alex: First things first, though Vinnie. Get your scrawny ass back in that ring.

Loverboy: Ha ha! You got it, man!

((Donny Brooks shakes his head as the duo climb back into the squared circle, then walks to the ring bell and chimes it three times.))

Ding!

Ding!

Ding!
