OOC: Scene sets on Joey Hawkins re-watching his return promo on a chair while a cameraman records him.
Comeback, this is my comeback. They doubted me. They insulted me. They made me feel worthless. And I was. But that's all about to change. After I make my way up to the King of The Ring this coming Madness.
The whole XWF thought I was trash. Garbage. Absolute shit, and those are just some of the names. I fell short to a couple of worthy opponents, but then again I had the upper hand on some as well. I came close to Frodo, but he was just the superior opponent in that match. It's as simple as that. Now, I'm restarting on a clean slate. I've forgotten about my past losses, and now I'm concerned about the future. My future
What did I do after I hung up my boots, you ask? Well, I was lost. I didn't know what my next move was. I didn't really have any another special skills besides wrestling. I didn't really have any other passions besides wrestling(and BMX riding but I was way out of my element for that). So, like almost every teenager in America, I became a cashier at a local Taco Bell in Las Vegas. That was one of the worst experiences of my life. Working late hours, only to make barely $8 an hour. I couldn't thrive on minimum wage, so I sold my house and bought an apartment. It was very difficult getting accustomed to living in an extremely small apartment. My whole complex smelled like cigarettes and weed on a daily basis. It was terrible. After one month of hard work and shit profit, I left my job at Taco Bell. After quitting, I enrolled back into the wrestling business. Back to the Las Vegas Wrestling League which is where my indie circuit days were. The GM was so polite to let me back in the business. I couldn't really thank him enough. In those two months that I was there, I felt my old self was back. The old Joey Hawkins who didn't give a shit what people thought about him. Who challenged everybody who thought that he wasn't good enough. I eventually won the King Of Vegas title(for the second time in the LVWL), but when I had to defend it against my rival Barry Schumaker, I got promoted back to the XWF. For the first time in those three months since I left the XWF, I felt truly amazing. I felt that I could do anything. Anything that I possibly dreamed of doing. Nobody could stop me. And I know, nobody can stop me.
Enough with the stories now, let's get on to the big event. The King of The Ring Tournament this coming Madness. Now instead of the first round being 1v1, it's a triple threat match. So my two opponents are Harley Jack and Derek Rampant. Two shitheads who I have no idea who the fuck they are. Newbies who won't get a chance to shine I guess, since none of them have even the slightest amount of energy to make one fucking promo! They'll just be my stepping stones into round two. Thanks for the easy win,
!
Now, in the bracket under mine consists of Justin Sane, Wrestler82, and Venomous. From the promos I'm watching, it looks like I'll be facing Justin Sane in the second round. That is if he doesn't forfeit after he sees that I'm facing him. I watched a couple of his promos, and he seems to be actually pretty decent. Decent, not amazing. I hope that fucker doesn't get a swelled head. One thing he will get though is severe pain and aches from me beating his ass. Not literally though because that's just some messed up Frodo Smackins shit right there.
After I destroy Justin in round two, I will move on to the semifinals. From the way this is going, I predict I'll be facing Frodo Smackins. An old buddy of mine. I am certainly not unfamiliar with Frodo. He whooped my ass once and I'm not going to let him do it a second time. He knows my strengths, and I know his. It won't be an easy fight, but I will come out the winner. I just know I will.
Finally, the finals will come. The upper half brackets are pretty good fights I must say. But one name that sticks out is.......Mastermind.The last guy I fought before my retirement. I lost and never got another match. Next Madness, I'll get my second shot at him. And then, hopefully I'm victorious. Then, the whole XWF will know how powerful I am. I will be the King of The Ring, and the era of Joey Hawkins 2.0 will begin.
