The waters in ICWF have been getting a bit choppy as of late. Only days have passed since the arrival of the greatest of all time in ICWF and people are already lining up to punch him in the face. Why do you ask? Because he merely saw Robb Johnson for who he really was, a good for nothing worthless piece of crap who isn’t worth his weight in well…crap. You make one little measly comment and everyone jumps off the handle like he just crapped all over the bible or something. “Primetime” Paul Roberts is a legend in his own right and will go down in history as the greatest of all time. Robb Johnson was a flash in the pan man who more interested in winning gold and then dropping it as fast as he could in order to call him self a triple crown winner. Roberts merely acknowledged that and told him to stay off his band wagon, instead of worshiping at the feet of a no body like everyone else.
Respect is a word being thrown around a lot lately, especially by those not showing any to a legend of Roberts stature. Everyone needs to realize it isn’t about how much you work out, or about how much respect you give your opponent. Wrestling is about wins and losses plain and simple, and one thing Roberts has figured out how to do and do it well is just that, win.
As the scene opens we find our ICWF cameras inside of a busy night club, following a man in a sports coat we move through the sea of people drinking and dancing to a back room. As we pass through the club lasers and bright flashes of light are flowing all trough the room to loud music. We finally enter into a private back room for VIPs, were we see that the man we were following was Chad Monie, and he arrives in the back room to find Paul Roberts sitting down on a black leather sofa with an attractive blonde sitting next to him. Roberts is dressed to impress with his high priced suit and dark shades, Chad throws a news paper at Roberts, Monie seemingly a little frustrated. Chad: Check it out. Primetime: What’s this? Chad: It’s the latest out of the ICWF, seems your wasting no time in making enemies here. Monie says with a little base in his voice, but Roberts just shrugs it off with a smile and tosses the paper aside. Primetime: What? Little Williams got your dander all up? Come on I told you after this match we wont have to worry about him anymore. Chad: You really haven’t been paying attention have you? Primetime: Chad, I’m a little busy at the moment okay… Chad: No, Paul your starting to piss off the whole roster because of your comments about Robb Johnson. Primetime: What? So what, some guy is getting pissed off cuz I said his boyfriend wasn’t worth a damn? The guy ducked me every chance he had last I saw him then he wants to jump on my band wagon? Well I don’t need any endorsement from Black Robbie okay, so why don’t you go and tell the rest of the roster that Robbie can kiss my Hollywood ass. Roberts smiles and turns back to the blonde. Chad: See its that kind of stuff that pisses people off! Why cant you show a little respect when you go into a new place? Primetime: Respect? Roberts says as he turns to Chad looking up at him. Primetime: RESPECT??? “Primetime” slowly stands up getting visibly more upset. Primetime: If anyone wants respect from me they better damn well earn it! I have done everything there is to do in this business I have paid my dues and don’t pretend like everyone in that locker room doesn’t know my name, because when they heard my name was signed to ICWF each and everyone of them crapped there pants because they knew I was coming. And yet everywhere I go win after win after win, all I ever hear is ‘we don’t care what you did in another fed, you haven’t done anything here yet’, well you know what? If a guy wants respect from me, he will have to earn it the same way that they want me to “earn” it in this federation. Chad: All they are asking you for is a little respect and not to walk in and act like you own the place the second you get in the door. Primetime: Chad, this isn’t about respect. Its about each and every guy in that locker room knowing that they cant hang with me. Its about all of them knowing that I am coming for there spot. This isn’t about respect, I walk in the door and I am just suppose to respect the guy next to me because he has been in the federation longer? That doesn’t make any sense at all, you want respect in this world? MY world, you got to earn it. I never come into a place and beg and plead or even demand ANYONE’S respect. They don’t have to like me, or even respect me because it doesn’t matter I’m gonna beat them anyway. That’s not just hot air either its fact, and if they don’t like it let them...try...and do something about it. Chad: All I’m saying is you can’t take down thirty guys at once, thirty on one. You may want to think about that. Roberts sits back down on the sofa, pretty much ignoring Chad’s last comment. “Primetime” turns to the lovely lady next to him. Primetime: You see sweaty, when I say take a look at greatness, its not just because I needed something to finish off promos. I say it because— Bridget: You say it because its true. The lovely woman says smiling. Primetime: See Chad, she gets it. Why is this so hard for everyone else in the ICWF to figure out? You…camera man, come over here. The camera man with a little herky jerk, walks over and gives Roberts center stage as “Primetime” removes his shades and looks into the camera. Monie off to the side looks a little distressed not liking what is about to happen. Primetime: Greg Williams… Chad: Gene Williams. Primetime: Pardon? Chad: Gene Williams…his name is Gene Williams. Primetime: Right. Monie correcting Roberts as Chad scratches his forehead knowing that what is about to come out of Roberts mouth will most likely upset a lot of people. Primetime: Gene my good man. You have begged all week long for my attention, well here it is. I didn’t want to get into this with you but you have really given me no other choice I mean you keep showing up, and talking! Oh my god man! A man with such limited ability to speak shouldn’t do so much of it. Listen, my respect or lack there of, of your abilities is nothing personal, really its just that you really have no marketable skills as a wrestler, I for one do not understand why the ICWF has hired you in the first place. You are an uninteresting, lifeless, waste of space, who does nothing but go on and on and on about a match that you have absolutely no chance of winning. Its really sad that you go into this match with such high hopes of winning because honestly your not going to. So…I would like to publically apologize for not only what is going to happen to you on Sunday, but for the situation that the ICWF has put you in. Lets face it, they hired a no talent, good for nothing, vanilla wrestler put him up against someone even worse than him in his first match just to burry his career in his second. Putting you in a match that you really have no hope of winning was truly cruel, and for that I apologize on behalf of the ICWF. Roberts pauses for a moment, as if he is thinking if he should continue or not. It looks as if he is done when he puts his shades back on and heads back over to the sofa, but then he stops raises one finger as if to say “one second”, and begins again. Primetime: Oh…and one more thing. And this goes out to anyone in the locker room who wants to brown nose up to Johnson some more. If your looking to kiss the ass of a guy who robbed his way into people thinking he is worth something go ahead get yourself a camera man and press record and tell me how your going to shut me up because here comes a bombshell. It wasn’t just the fact that Robb cut my first win in the ICWF short last Sunday, it wasn’t just the fact that calling his talk show the most successful in cable history was a direct slap in my face as well as wrestling fans in general, its not just the fact that it seems that everyone here seems to follow that dirt bag around like he's actually worth something, that really rubs me the wrong way about Robb. Call it jealousy if you want, and I am sure most of you will, it’s the fact that everyone here even the co-announcer treat that man like he is gold or something. I’m not jealous of any title he won, or anything he did because my career far surpasses his. It’s the fact that you have a true living legend here, an Icon that can still snap ankles and break faces in the ring and yet you all want to walk around and praise that man like he actually accomplished something in his life. I’m not asking for your respect because I am a legend in not only the wrestling business but entertainment in general, hell I’m not asking for your respect at all! All I want you to do is see that piece of crap for what he is. I seem to remember some guy saying that the next time I speak about Mr. Johnson it better be with respect. Well I have news for you, I do what I want when I want, and if you don’t like it tuff. If all you other guys want to walk around with your noses up his ass by all means go right ahead, but me I know true greatness when I see it. And I should know what it looks like, and well its standing right here, right now. So please forgive me if I refuse to stop and bow down to a worthless piece of crap. All I said was I didn’t want him on my band wagon, and why not? Because it would tarnish my legacy. The fans are obviously starting to wise up because at my press conference when I signed on the dotted line and told the roster to take a look at greatness the crowd chanted right there along with me, and they boo Robbs ass out of the building when he got into the ring. Its really sad that the fans are smart enough to see greatness when it stands in front of them, but all you boys are not. Now if you will excuse me, I do have a life, that only I can live. Roberts turns and sits down on the sofa once again resuming in his conversation with his beautiful lady friend. Chad throws up his arms in frustration and leaves the room.
You see, all of this isn’t about respect. Its about proving day in and day out that you are everything you say you are. And that point, unfortunately for Gene Williams and anyone else who doesn’t like what Roberts has to say, “Primetime” Paul Roberts has Never been proven wrong.
