Coming back from loses is what you have to do: Promo #2 vs NNK - Mastermind - 07-01-2019
PREVIOUSLY
Having successfully getting through his first 'mental' therapy, where he discovered ot wasn't his fault that his father started drinking, shortly after his mother his father's wife), passed away from Cancer when Mastermind was just 9 years old.
As a reault of the break through, and needing to relieve the pressure, he took Zana, Outback Jack's 18 year old daughter, up on her offer to go for a drive, so she took him to the look out whoch shows the entire valley, and overlooked Outback Jack's training facilty.
Then things got heated, and because he had a beginning of a relation with Maria back in New Zealand, and his 5 year age gap to Zana, he had to be the one to snuff out what was about to go down. He did, but instantly regretted it.
And now the continuation.
1997
SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA
OUTER SYDNEY
LOOKOUT POINT OVER LOOKING FARMING COMMUNITY
PLUS OUTBACK JACK'S TRAINING FACILITY
Mastermind was on his knees, breathing really hard. He almost blew everything.... his fledgling relationship with his girlfriend, Maria Swift, who was back in New Zealand, supporting everything he did.... his trust with Outback Jack because Zana was his daughter.... his 'friendship' with Zana, because without her help, everything to do with training would be very hard.... and last but not least would be the training overall.
He knelt on his knees but the atmosphere was still really intense. He dared not look back at Zana, because if he did he would break whatever he just did.
At first all he could hear was silence, possibly the shock of his rebuff was kicking in... but then came footsteps behind him. He watched as Zana walk in front of him and look down at him. He was waiting for the biggest slap of his life. So to prepare for that he closed his eyes.
"I understand that you can't initiate a kiss, but it doesn't mean I can't," said Zana softly
Mastermind opened his eyes in shock, and Zana didn't hesitate, and bent down and put her lips to his. Mastermind tried to pull away but the more he struggled, Zana controlled him because she was the one standing. At first he struggle but the kiss was so instense that in the end he went with it. But he never initiated it, and that was the main thing, so to him it wasn't his fault......
To be continued
ENROUTE FROM FARGO, NORTH DAKOTA
TO DUBLIN, IRELAND
The camera fades in to the cabin of Mastermind's private jet as he's trying to get from the United States to Ireland for his next match.
He is looking all beat up, bloodied, and bruised from his last match which was against Lux for her XWF Television Title. The outcome was enevitable as she held onto the title for another two weeks.
Mastermind looks like he's been beaten into submission, but is that really the case with Mastermind, with now 100 matches to his name in the XWF.
He finally looks up.
"'I get knocked down, but I get up again, but you are never going to keep me down' are words often described by most of the human race that in times of trouble we may be forced down but we are never kept down for too long as we get back up again, dust ourselves off, and move forwards.
"Throughout time we often the best of humanity rising up to injustices showing they were never be forced to stay down.
"The same can be also be said for the Wrestling industry. The so called powerful wrestlers who consider themselves A grade material and always top of the wrestling division treat the midcarders and lowercarders with disrespect.
"Or even stronger personality types that use their trash talking gift of the gab like gold and make sure we know it."
Mastermind sits forward in his seat looking intense as he has ever had before.
"Everyone expects me to lie down and basically never get up again, lately. Everyone expects me to disappear because in their eyes 'I'm not good enough... I'm too beatable... I'm too predictable... I'm too boring.... I'm too unoriginal.... THEY want me to be SOMETHING that they want me to be... They want me to conform.. Well do you want to know what I say to all that?
"I am ME.... I am MASTERMIND.... I do not CONFORM to any other style but my own ORIGINALITY.... I can attest to this..... I can BEAT anyone on this roster on any BEST day but alas those are few and dar between but I know I can...
"Unfortunately I lost to Lux... but she was hungry to stay Television champion and even though I gave a good showing, I wasn'5 at my very best.
"You all may walk all over me like the insect that you think I am, but you know what?
"Everytime you knock me down, I WILL always get back up again. You will never ever keep me down untill I decide enough is enough and that's not happening any time soon,"
Mastermind sits back in his seat, and rubs his forehead, as if he's tired. He looks back at the camera.
"Which brings me to my next opponent, this coming Wednesday Night Warfare. Nortorious Ned Kaye. I only have one thing to say to you Ned.....
"R.E.S.P.E.C.T
"I might not have shown that in my previous promo but I well and truly respect you Ned.
"Lately we have been treated the same way by so many of our opponents. Everyone has knocked you down and expected you not to get back up but you have, and you have shown time and again like myself we will not be beaten down.... so respect to you.
"But I have noticed, that all of that pressure is may be getting tou you, and you are starting to have doubts! Normally I would say... get off of your ass... dust yourself off, and refocus.
"Actually I'm going to say that anway because NED, I WANT YOU at your ABSOLUTE best, because our match this coming Wednesday is going to be one for the ages. Let's show our detractors that we belong here in the XWF. Let's also show them how and why we can beat anyone who is who on our best day.
"Yes you may have given a shit showing against Robert Main, but lately so has nearly everyone else who have gone up against him. Ue is a beast. I know I haven't dared challenge him because I'm not ready to.
"Pull yourself together Ned. Act like the captain we saw at War Games. Someone who stepped up when others fell around us.
"I've been looking forward to our match since your debut, because I saw a worthy adversary. But not this doubting yourself diwn on yoyr luck opponent.
"I could say the same for myself too after losing on Saturday the way I did. But I have picked myself up, dusted myself off, it may hurt that I couln't become the 2 time Television champion, that may last a little bit but I'll use that as motivation fir my upcoming matches and that includes against you Ned.
"Our match is an I Quit match. I won't be the one quitting as I'll keep on getting back up, dusting myself off and fighting back until you quit, Nex, and let me tell you... you will be the words to utter the words 'I quit,'
"Like I said I do have full on respect for you Ned, and I hope you bring your 'A' game but the fact of the matter is, I will make you say 'I quit'and then we can move on from there. Be ready Ned... BECAUSE I CERTAINLY AM."
Mastermind barely gives a smirk before he gives the sign to turn the camera off. The camera then fades out.
