Only Human - Chapter 1

| Another Mayhem comes and Goes.. Am I surprised at what happened?.. Were you?.. I don’t think anyone was, simply because it was so obvious.. Once a Follower... always a follower. So when I felt the crack of the steel chair against my skull, and the blood began to trickle down my face, I was not in a disoriented surprise, but rather an expected turn of events. It was inevitable.. I expected it, and I was ready for it. But now it is set... Tribal Warfare... 3 Teams, 9 mean, one shot.. I think we all know the line.. No need to stress it. And it is no doubt a match that people all over this company who are going to claim I don’t belong in this match.. They are going to cry about the fact that I “don’t deserve” a number one contenders shot. Because essentially what this could lead to is a World title shot. a Stretch?... Maybe. But I am trying to go into this with an optimistic viewpoint. There is no sense falling into the trap people have laid before me. They want me to believe I have no chance. They want me to give up before this match even begins.. But It wont happen. Opportunities like this do not often come along for me.. So to pass it up and give in before I even start would be absurd. As the week goes by, the pressure will build, and most of you expect me to fold under that.. To give in when the verbal bashings begin to be tossed around, but what if.. And think about this.. what if I Rise up to the challenge and hold my ground. Impossible?.... Only time will tell...
Addicted.. Something I have never really felt, or been before. And to be honest I am not sure if that is what I am now. If you ask Nitara she will tell you that is exactly what I am. An Addict, an addict that has been neglecting her, and everything else important in my life. She thinks I should get help.. I think she should shut the fuck up.. But after deliberation.. I somehow found myself in a situation I swore I would never be in again.
” So tell me.. What seems to be the problem? “
” You’re the one getting paid.. You tell me.. “ I have little patience for this..
” to be able to do that you would first have to let me know what is wrong. “
” Basically you want me to tell you exactly what that sheet in front of you.. “ He gives me an odd look.. And nods. ” But.. If you insist.. I am here because I my wife seems to think I have a problem “
” And do you believe you have a problem? “
” No”
” Ok then.. I suppose we might as well end this now. “
” Beg Pardon? “
” If you wont admit you have a problem.. Then we are both wasting our time, good day. “
” Well.. Wait. “ he sits back down, and adjusts his wire glasses ” I don’t think I do.. But I don’t see myself. “
” Ok.. So what exactly is the drug?.. “
” I don’t know.. “
” You don’t know what you are taking?.. “
” No.. “
” Don’t you find that a little bit odd, that you keep taking something that you don’t even know what it is? “
” I guess I have never really thought of that. “
” how do you think you act while taking.. “the drug” “
” I am not sure.. Its like I am in a different world, reality is blended, and surreal “
” Almost dream like? “
” yes. “
” But what you are failing to see, is while you are in that state, you are violent.. Angry, and completely out of control. “
” How do you know? “
” Thats what your wife told me. “
” Its not true.. “
” How do you know?.. “
” Because it cant be.. I don’t remember being like that. “
” I am not here to argue.. Only ask and infer. “
” Sorry.. I am slightly defensive. “
” Sure “
” Why the mask?.. What are you hiding from? “
” Hiding?.. I am not hiding... “
” Then take it off.. “
” No. “
” Why not?.. “
” I.... I am not sure its become part of me. “
” Shame.. Shame is why you will not take it off. You are hiding the shame, it may not be physical, but you are hiding something.. I think the first step is to free yourself of it.. “
” you mean take it off... “
” Yes... “
” I don’t think I can... “
” If you honestly want to progress.. If you want this to benefit you at all, you will listen, until then.. I cannot help you.. No one can help you. “
Lots to talk about this week, so no sense in wasting time.
It appears I have been deemed one half of the Tag Team Champion. Whether or not this is a permanent situation or just a one time fill in, I am not sure. And to be honest it does not matter. Because either way I have a responsibility to ensure that those titles stay with in the confines of the Acts of God. Who of the three members that hold the belts is irrelevant, because as long as they are with us and not someone else all is well. So call me a fill in, or call me a champion.. I don’t really care because the fact is, I have a job to do.. And I intend on fulfilling my obligation.
Kevin Jones... , oh great. Yet another week of Jones proclaiming to be the “Goth Killer”, blabbering on and on about how I am just like all the other “goths” and doing so in such a generic manner it amazes me how this guy gets over. But its simple.. Kevin Jones is overrated. No question.. No dispute. No argument, because if you question that for even a second, ask around.. And there will be a damn unanimous answer, and that is Yes. And if you are one of the few people still riding the KJ bandwagon, watch this week.. Watch as Jones struggles to find some new way to approach me in this match. Watch as he tries and fails in doing so. Because he is so one dimensional it is repulsive. I don’t even need to watch your shit Jones. There is no reason for me to even give your ass the time of day. But there will be no stopping Kevin and his Incredibly original approach. And if you are not convinced Kevin Jones is the most creative and innovative smack-talker in the business, just ask Andrew Davis and he will be sure to fill you with plenty of bullshit as to why he is.
Trey Reed ....dear god. Just When I thought I had seen saddest attempt at a comedic promo, I for some reason or another actually sat through one of yours. Honestly, the level of stupidity has reached a level so high, that anything remotely comedic you managed to get out goes down in vain because it is so pointless its damn near unbearable to watch.
So the way I see this Tag Team title match, this may be all I need to say for the entire week.
Why?..
Jones has nothing new to say..
And reed has nothing to say.. Period.
End of discussion.
And while that match holds a certain level of importance, I think even my partner will agree it pales in comparison to the other match we have Sunday.
Tribal Warfare.
Team IWF... there are so many problems with this team I am questioning how exactly they are going to function. Point one: Jason Starr no denying the weak link in the team. And I am not saying that because its an easy jab, its because it’s the honest truth. And you know why it’s the truth?.... Because um... you have not even shown your face in two weeks. You have all but blown this match off, you have practically dropped off the face of the earth. So when I say you are the weak link in the team, its not to boast my ego.. Its not some lame overused attack, its merely fact. I don’t even have to say anything really, you doing absolutely nothing for the last 2 weeks proves my point all by itself.
Is Jason Starr a threat?... I think a better question is will Jason Starr bother to show up.
And then.. The second problem with Team IWF.. Is that two of the members have been practically killing one another for the last month. Caine the whole week where you and I faced each other, your whole focus was to destroy The Foundation, you wanted to rip him apart, so much so that you were barley even able to focus on me. Then, one top of that.. It was Foundy who cost you the match between us. Now, suddenly you two are suppose to put all that shit aside and work as a team?.. No. It cannot happen and it will not. Both of your massive egos wont be shown up. Neither one of you wants to be outdone by the other and because of that, your team will systematically self destruct . It will only be a matter of time until team IWF implodes.
Team IWF’s weakness: Inability to function as a team.
Oh and let’s not forget the 7 Deadly Sins.
Ryan Andrews .... blah, does it even matter what I say about him?.. He prefers to only enlighten us with personal life, never feeling the need to even mention the match he has at hand.
That is assuming he even bothers to show up.
Ryan Andrews.. Fuck him, I have already wasted to much time talking about him.
Oh, I almost forgot the HUGE SURPRISE that was the revelation of the Third Sin. “Sloth” was.. Jackrabbit ... wow, did anyone actually have a doubt about that? Why else would Jackrabbit want to team with us?.. He didn’t want revenge on Avi, he was planning some lame twist where in a massive shock he turns his back on the AoG. Please.. The wool has not been pulled over my eyes I said from the start you were not to be trusted, and go figure I was right. And the main reason no one was even slightly shocked, is because JR is a Tag-along .. Anywhere the negro goes.. Jackrabbit will follow . Thats the way it has always been and always will be. You cant stand on your own Jack, look at what you have done while AVI was on leave....... nothing. You barley kept your damn job you did so little. Plus, who else could possibly fill the slot of Sloth other than you?..
Once again I question if you even show.
Avi. Was completely silent last week, your big returned turned out to be worthless, much like everything else you do. If you had nothing to say.. Why even bother coming back? If you planned to stay in solitude why even bother to come back in the first place? Because you jumped on the “Sins” bandwagon. It was an easy way for you to get your name tossed back in the spotlight, so whether you were ready to come back or not.
Do I even need to state the Sins weakness?.... I think to anyone with some intelligence it is obvious... Laziness
What more needs to be said?
This is only the start, there is still a long week ahead.. And Countdown to Greatness looms in the distance.
Step one is complete.
The task that lies ahead is great, and the responsibility weighs heavy on my shoulders... Sometimes I forget that I am....
