Drew Archyle · (02-01-2018)

John Holliday is now a Barney Green guy.

Let that sink in for a moment.

John Holliday freely and proudly admitted this to the world.

He.Is.A .Barney.Green.Guy!

And he is proud. Damn proud of this fact.

Now make no mistake I am not saying this to belittle him or even Barney Green per say. I am saying this because I am trying to wrap my head around the idea that Barney Green can be a manager. I am not doubting that once upon a time in a galaxy far far away Barney Green was a pretty good wrestler. He won a lot of titles according to what I read. So naturally one would think that they can offer someone like John Holliday, someone with only a dozen or so matches under his belt a lot of wisdom and maybe that's true but that's literally all he can offer. And maybe that's all John wants. Wisdom, some guidance but if I am going to be paying for a guy to manage me I'd want someone who can offer some wisdom regarding today's wrestlers and that's where Barney Green falls a bit short. Which I've heard is something he's sort of used to.

You see Barney Green of yesteryear he was good, he mattered he could probably teach you a thing or two about how to be a good wrestler but Barney Green of today? He couldn't beat himself into an orgasm if someone jerked him 99% of the way there. What is Barney Green of today going to teach you John about wrestling in 2018? The guy certainly can't show you anything himself. The guy has an asthma attack every time he passes gas. It takes the local fire department and a crain just to get him out of bed in the morning. He can't involve himself in your matches either. It would take the guy 20 minutes just to lift the ring apron to see what goodies are hiding under there. God forbid there are any year old cheetos tucked away in a crack or crevasse and you might never see that guy again.

Look John I'm not trying to be mean here. It might sound like I am but I'm not. That's not my style. Believe it or not i'm actually trying to help you. I don't want to see you paying this guy thinking that he is going to turn you into some superstar only for you to be left standing there holding your Charles Dickens because your "manager" can't provide anything of value to you. You just won the Television Title without Barney Green. You just won a match on Warfare without Barney Green. The truth is you are well on your way to becoming a star in this place. You don't need Barney. Save your money, or invest it. Or if you really want to be the most awesome guy on the planet I know a couple of homeless folks that could really benefit from you throwing them a couple dollars. Just let me know ok?

Las Vegas - Now

As the scene fades in we hear the sound of screeching tires before we see the cab come into the camera's view stopping suddenly only a few inches away from the curb. The back passenger door to the cab swings open and XWF superstar Drew Archyle appears. He takes a few glances up and down the street and once he's satisfied that the coast is clear he removes himself from the vehicle.

Keep the change ya filthy animal. Drew says to the cab driver.

But you didn't pay me sir. The fair is $35.75. The cab driver replies politely.

Yeahhhhhh do you take credit cards?

Yes.

Good Good. Do you happen to have a credit card application on hand?

You don't have any money? That is very bad. Very bad. The man with the thick middle eastern accent starts yelling at Drew.

I don't have any money on me right now. But give me a few minutes and I should have some. Drew says to the man as he closes the car door.

Fine but the meter keeps running. The man shouts to Drew.

Drew walks up a steep driveway and then continues up to the front door of the home. The house's number is blocked out from the viewers to protect the owners of the home. Once at the door Drew knocks on the door three times in rapid succession and then takes a step back from the door allowing for the person on the other side of the door to open it without feeling as though their personal space is being invaded.

It takes only a few seconds and then the door swings open revealing the owner of the home to be Robbie [Redacted] aka the boyfriend of Robert Main's sister Kayla.

Can I help you?

Robert right?

That's right. And you are?

Drew Archyle.

Drew Archyle...why does that sound so familiar?

We met at Robert Main's Christmas party this past year. I'm a friend of his.

Ohhhhh! Robert replies as if he was just hit by a lightning bolt to the cock. You're the guy that flashed everyone while baking cookies.

That's right.

What are you doing here? You here to see Kayla? Robbie asks as he opens the door a little bit more exposing more of the interior of the home to Drew.

Who is it hunny? The familiar sound of Kayla Main asks from somewhere else in the home.

It's D...

Shhhhhhh. Drew instructs Robbie as he places a finger up to his lips as to further drive home the point that his arrival is not to be announced.

It's just Dwight from down the street. He wants to borrow one of my tools. Robbie replies.

Oh ok. Dinner will be ready in a few minutes. Kayla says as Robbie steps outside shutting the door behind him.

What's with the secrecy? I really don't like lying to Kayla. Robbie says as he puts his arm around Drew and politely moves the two of them out of view of any windows.

It's funny you should mention that you don't like lying to Kayla because as I understand it you fairly good at it.

What? Robbie says as he takes a step back from Drew, a look of surprise and mild disgust coming across his face. What are you talking about?

Well Robbie as it happens I was in town to meet with someone connected to my employer. Some rich asshole that has another business based here out in Las Vegas. Anyway he took me to some club that he enjoys going to down on the strip, you know which one I'm talking about.

How would I know that? There are a hundred clubs down on the strip.

Because you were there too Robbie. You and some blonde woman. At first I thought maybe Kayla had dyed her hair, she's been known to do that as I am sure you are aware. I saw you guys from across the dance floor. I figured it had to be Kayla with how you were all over her but as I approached the two of you to say hello I realized that it wasn't Kayla at all that you had your hands all over. It should have been pretty obvious with how far deep down the woman's throat your tongue was. Kayla's never been one for P.D.A., or clubs for that matter. And she certainly wouldn't wear anything that could double as an oversized napkin.

Look Drew I don't know what you think you saw but that wasn't me. I was at a business dinner last night.

Yeah I have no doubt you had a meal last night, sushi right? Anyway Robbie please do me the courtesy of not lying to me. Please assume for your own sake that I wouldn't be here now if I wasn't 150% sure of what I saw ok? Can you do me that courtesy?

What do you want? Money? Kayla mentioned that you were pretty broke. You want some money is that it?

No Robbie. I don't want money. What I want is for you walk back into that house and enjoy the meal that Kayla made for you and after it's over you are going to pack a bag and leave. You can tell Kayla why you are leaving if you wish. Though I do ask that if you do that you try and couch it in a way that makes it clear that you are the one in the wrong here. Because you are.

And if I don't?

Well in the event that you decide to make an already bad situation worse I want you to know that my face won't be the next one you see. It will be Kayla's brother Robert. You see I haven't told him any of this yet. I am giving you a chance that frankly you don't deserve. I am giving you the chance to walk out of here unscathed. Believe me when I tell you this Robbie but it takes everything I have to stand here and not turn your face into a pile of blood and bone fragments. Kayla is more than just my best friends sister. She is family to me. I have known her since the day she was born. Do you understand what I am telling you Robbie? Do you appreciate the gravity of the situation you have created?

Yes I do.

Good. Then I will expect to hear from Robert in the next few days that you and Kayla have broken up. Drew says as he turns around and starts walking away from a stunned Robbie.

Drew gets a few feet down the walkway and sees the cab still parked at the bottom of the driveway.

Hey Robbie, I hate to do this in light of our recent conversation but do you happen to have some money on you? Like a hundred bucks maybe? I gotta take cab down there back to the airport and well as you mentioned, I'm broke.
