El Oso Furioso, the windy city mad man.......











The camera shows up in the locker room of everyone's favorite two letter face stable in ICW history...IT! Better than EI, better than IV...its IT! All of the members of IT are there in the room, Crasher, Savage, Pyro, Stud, Chairsman, and Johnny Jacobsen. All 6 men are combantants in the Mr. ICW tourny, combined to make up one half of the spots. That gives IT a one half chance of winning the thing, sound kicks in and we hear the wrestlers start talking...

King Crasher: Well, looks like all of us have gotten this far, we are all in the second round of the Mr. ICW tournament. Even if some of each other are bickering a little bit amungst ourselves within the stable...we are a cohessive unit, so remember that. Now, in the second round we have one match where one IT member will face another IT member. This means that we have at least one person moving on to the third round, and at most five people getting to the third round.

Big Al Stud: Yeah, and what a suprise the people who face each other are Johnny and Chairsman, the two guys pull of major upsets and they get stuck together, just another case of Mr. S trying to hold us down. You all know that I have got Triple H in the first round, and he is proving to be one tough cookie as of late.

King Crasher: Well I have to face El Oso, and then I'll face you after both of us win our matches, so you had better get ready. But you can't really say that El Oso was a lucky draw can you mate?

Big Al Stud: Actually I can say whatever I want to say Chris. Right now I want to say what is on my mind, so I'm going to go cut a promo, and I will see you guys later.

Johnny 'The Star' Jacobsen: Hey I need to talk to you later, meet me in about 45 minutes.

Big Al Stud: I'll take that as a half an hour, so i need to hurry up with my promo.

Big Al Stud gets up from his lazy boy chair perch and leaves the dressing room. He walks around the backstage area for a while. He then walks into a door. He slams the door shut infront of the camera to see that it is Big Al Stud's locker room. The camera then magically and miraculously switches to inside of Stud's room. He is just chilling sitting down in a nice leather couch with an ice cold sprite in his hands. He is titleless, and the folksare getting used to it, and for some reason has on a 1-hit T-Shirt. We all wondered who was the one person who bought the shirt. It was Stud. Stud takes a sip of his frost beverage because he is parched quite frankly. He makes and ahhhh sound after drinking a nice swig of the soda, and then starts to talk...

Big Al Stud: El Oslo, looks like you are going to have kind of a rough time at Shattered Innocence. I mean, you know that if this wasn't for a chance at the world title, during WrestleRage3 of all events, that you would pussy out and either job...or flat out not show up. I mean lets look at the foursome that you got stuck with. You got four time World Champion HHH as the lowest ranked person. Then there is KIng Crasher, the man you have to worry about first. The former world champion of ICW. A man who is on just a slight cold streak. Then there is the man who you will have to worry about the most, there is Big Al Stud. You know that I am the man who you have to worry about most deep down, if you just think about it. I mean you, El Oslo, you have been really hot as of late. You pulled off a mighty respectable feat in beating the self proclaimed 'Atomic' Jade Shocker. I didn't think that you could do it, and to be truthful, no one thought that you could do it! You then beat a really hot Crazzzzzzzzzzzy Geraaaaaaaaaard...god that name is annoying...and ended his reign of 75 days with the internet title. You are the hottest that you have ever been in your ICW career right now, and there really could be no stopping you. But me, look at me, I am cold as I have ever been. I am titleless for the first time in over a month! I lost the UNited States Title just over a month ago, then I lost my Canadian Title, then I lost the Tag Team Titles. I cannot get a damn win right now. And that is why I am the most dangerous for you right now. I am the most desperate to get a win, and it all comes down to what 'Desperate Measures' that I am going to have to stoop down to, just to get a string of wins together. This will be against Hunter, and then you or Crasher are going to be the next victims! I am going to stoop to any levels to get a win over anyone as of right now, and I don't think that you are in the correct mind frame to do something like that right now. You see, I am just insane right now, looking to get something accomplished, knowing that hey, my luck in ICW mght be running out. But you, you are starting to get a little chip on your shoulder. You are in the stables champions, the internet champion, and you have won many of your last matches. You are starting to get a little swagger in your footsteps Oslo, and many people dont like it. That chip on your shoulder, or swagger in your footstep could really lead to your downfall. Ask any veteran you know, or you can just trust me, you know my strut is full of stagger. Oslo, you need to really watch that ego that you are groing, because pretty soon your neck is not going to be able to fully support it. When that happens everything, including your great big head, will just come crashing down in flames. And you know what, I want to be there when it does. Truthfully I really do. I am going to tell you this, I AM going to be there when it all comes crashing down, because I am going to be the man who brings you right back down to reality Oslo, and it is not going to be a pretty picture.

Big Al Stud: Now this ego does not make you a bad person Oslo...it certainly does not make you a bad wrestler, or a worse wrestler. It doesn't make you a better wrestler, just an overly more confident wrestler. This is not liekly to be either a good or bad thing unless you know how to make it work for you. I know how to make it work for me, so does Volcano. Rage and the Shanghai Kid don't know how to make it work for them, and that is why they had a very shortlived tag team, even though it could have been perhaps the best tag team ever. But you Oslo, it is only a matter of time before we see if your ego is going to work for you. But the real point I was making was that this little ego is not going to make you a worse wrestler really. You are a real talent in the ring, and on the stick. That is something I cannot take away from you. But there are things I can take away from you. The Internet Title is just one such example. The major thing I can take away from you is not Mr. ICW title, you can have it...thats not what I am in it for. There is another thing that comes along with beating you, and that is WrestleRage. It is every wrestler's dream to main event WrestleRage3, or any WrestleRage...and that dream I know you share with me. I can take that dream away and shatter that dream. It is all but fitting for the name to be shattered Innocence. Dreams will be shattered on this very night, but not my dreams. My dreams are going to continue and fly high. After beating people like you throughout my ICW career, I am going to do it just one more time El Oso, and I am going to earn my spot in all of wrestling's hall of fame. I am going to wrestleRage, and I am going to main event. You, on the other hand, you are going to lose to me, if you can get by my buddy Crasher. If you face me, I promise that I will beat you, and teach you a little lesson about respect. You are going to respect not just me, but what I have done for the company and paving the way for new stars like yourself to come into ICW and shine. But Sunday the 24th, that is not your time to shine. Your time will come Oslo, just SI is not going to be your time. Your littl dreams will be crushed for another 12 months, when you can try again...and perhaps succeed. I am going to beat you Olso, and beat you dearly. Not just to win and advance, not just to prove a point, but also for your own benefit. If and when you go for the Bear Trap, I am going to counter it with the Devastation Device, don't worry...I know how, and it will be all over. I am going to come out on top, and be the victor in this match. But when I beat you, you are going to swallow your pride, lose that ego, lessen that swagger in your step, and get shoves right back down to the midcard...where you have that Internet Title to fall back on. You are going back to the midcard, just like Max Powers had to when his good luck streak came to a sudden and abrupt end. But look on the bright side, you have that Internet Title to fall back on. BUt me, I have nothing to fall back on. I have a tag team partner who lets me down, and a stable who is going to turn on me at any moment. I have no real allies anymore now that ME has disbanded, and frankly...I have nothing going for me. IN the back of your mind you know if you lose you have that I-net title. IF you didnt already, then I planted that notion into your mind. You are going to think about it when you think there is a chance that maybe you just dont have what it takes to win Mr. ICW. When you are in a pickle you are going to think about that and decide, hey, maybe it is okay if you lose after all. But not me, I have nothing to fall back on. I am going to fall back and fall back hard if I lose this match. I know how hard it is for guys like us to get a world title shot Oslo...I've had one in 19 months, and I am destined to get another. YOu are not going to stop me because I am just flat out hungrier than you are, and I know my limits. I know I can go an hour, I have done it before. If you try to press an hour our of me, you will die from exhaustion.

Big Al Stud: El Oslo, I have faced people, and beaten people that you could never imagine. I have fought in matchups that you could not even fathm. A little last man standing or hardcore match is really nothing compared to some of the death defying stuff that I have been forced into doing in my ICW tenure. I was part of the first and only ever Iron Man Match, as well as the first and only TLC match. Oslo, while you get all pround and cream yourself when you think about your major acheivements and victories over Ragulator, Sam Hall, and Gerard...I am modest and of course always humble about my lesser victories over the likes of HHH, Pyro, Webster, Reaper, and Volcano. People like Sam Hall don't even compare with Webster...except for the simple little fact that they once held the same title and wrestled in the same organization. Oslo, you have not beaten the kind of people that I have, or proven that you can wrestle in any kind of circumstances that I have had to go through. You are not battle tested like I am, and all my training for these kind of matches are going to show everyone that I am ready, and they are going to help me to get through any kind of styles in the Mr. ICW tournament. I am going to win this tournament Oslo, and some no name punk like you is not going to stop me!

Big Al Stud: Now lets get to your little promo that you did solely about me, calling me an ego maniac and talking about how I need a promo just about me to feed me ego. You can call me an ego maniac, as long as you don't call me a stupid oslo-hollic! Why the fuck didn't you wear your Big Al Stud T-Shirt, I mean c'mon you know you have three or four...or your dirty ass never does the laundrey, because I see you wearing it in back a good three to four times a week. But then, with all joking aside, you took the liberty to insult the Canadian Title, saying that it is not worth holding. The Canadian Title is a higher ranked belt that your little internet title. Can you do me a favor Oslo? If I ever sink down to the depths of the Internet Title rankings, will you please bludgeon my skull with a ball point pen. But Oslo, you insulted me for being the reigning Canadian Champion for well over four months. Just because no ne was worthy of gaining a shot at my belt, that doesn't mean that I wasn't a champion dammit! I was the champion, and I held while I held the US Title...a title that you don't really seem all that familiar with. have you ever held the US Title? If so it was because back in summer of 00 I was giving u quarters to shine my belts and nickels to jiggle my balls. El Oslo kept doggin me and dogging me in his promo, as if he hated me or something. Talking about how I beat the fat midget Ming Chee after a hard fought victory. Then I beat Charter, who was a wrestler at the time, and a decent one at that. Of course he could not hang with me, and I put him back into his place where he has never gotten up from again! He just kept talking and talking and talking about nothing, nothing but simple things that he could easily just look up in ICW's history folder. Tomorrow will come a promo where I talk about nothing but every single El Oslo match in ICW's history. I will make as dry and boring as possible, saying no comments except he lost at FNR, he lost at TNEF, he beat sam hall whoop whoop! Then he brought up the most embarassing night in my life, excluding when I lost to Charter...when Main Event lost the tag team titles to Shanghai Kid and El Oslo. I cried for a week after that because Patrick Humiliated me so badly during that match. I dont evenn know the guy! Oslo asked at the end of his promo if I could handle the pressure, cause it was on...Oslo...I have been handling the pressure for over 19 months now. What amkes you think that a perrenial curtain jerker like you is going to make me crack. You said it yourself that I lose the big matches...Big Al Stud vs El Oslo, is not a big match. Enough said!

Stud then gets up and starts walking out of his room. He walks over to where IT's room was and tries to open it, but the door is locked tight, and Stud has no key. Stud just figures that Double J is in his locker room, so he heads over there. Stud enters the room where 'The Star' is waiting impatiantly for him.

Johnny Jacobsen: What took you so long?

Big Al Stud: That was only like thirty or thirty five minutes...

Johnny Jacobsen: No, that was one hour and seven minutes.

Big Al Stud: NO, actually it was about a half an hour, but call it what you want. What did you want to talk about?

The camera fades to black as Star Studded starts talking about imporant team things.
