[So this is SCW? Such an interesting place. There doesn't seem to be as much tension here as other places I've been. That's a good quality. Oh, perhaps I should introduce myself. I am Chris Muriel. I was the first member to join SCW, under advisement from my cousin. I could have gone DRWF, but...something about the backstage atmosphere didn't appeal to me. My cousin, better known as "The Prince of Old School" Seth Calvert, told me one of the reasons he retired from DRWF was because of the backstage egos becoming a problem. So I went and took his advice, and here I am. Chris Muriel, a person looking to make a name for himself...and it seems that Tuesday, I have the chance to do so. Welcome to my world.]

>HOLY S**T! Stupid friggin' driver. I could bust his ass now...but "Bad Habit" isn't playin', so I best not do that. You're probably wondering what's going on. I'm taking my cousin's approach to things and doing a little narrative on how my day went. It could double as a promo if these camera folks want it to. I do talk about my three opponents. But no, not through these cleverly overlayed lines. SONUVA...damn traffic people. Okay, I should probably let you in on where I'm headed. I'm on a highway in Pennsylvania, trying to get home to my fiancee. No, she's not involved in wrestling in anyway, except to make sure I don't get injured. A little overprotective, but hey, what do you think someone in love would do? Thank you God...just got into my driveway. Cozy little home. In the door and....<

{ANA} - SWEETIE! OHMIGOSH! I missed you so much...

{CHRIS MURIEL} - Babe...I just stepped out to get laces for my boots...I've only been gone for 15 minutes...

>As I look at my watch, it seems like it's been a lot longer than that actually. Maybe it really is because I missed her too...God she's beautiful. Shoulder length, soft, straight brown-ish black hair; lovely dark brown eyes; a cute five feet four inches tall...I really couldn't be luckier. But as you'll see, my day's about to take a turn for the weird...<

{ANA} - You'll never guess who called...

{CHRIS MURIEL} - I swear, I was in the house all night last night...

{ANA} - Verrrrrry funny mister. Your cousin called...

{CHRIS MURIEL} - Which one? The one with the blond afro?

{ANA} - HAHA! No no no...Seth...

>Seth? My esteemed DRWF counterpart Seth Calvert? Calling me? AGAIN?!?!?!<

{CHRIS MURIEL} - What'd he want this time?

{ANA} - Why don't you ask him yourself? He left his Cell Phone number there on the counter...mmm, but don't go please...whatever it is...it can wait right...? Just don't stop holding me...

{CHRIS MURIEL} - Ooooh, hon, I wish I could...but if he left his Cell Phone, it's important. You know Seth doesn't like using his Cell Phone except in emergencies...I tell you what. Go take the other phone, make us some reservations at Harlan's tonight huh? Just a night of you and me, sound good?

>*Sigh*...I really didn't want to leave. But it's true what I said. There she goes...gosh damn she looks cute...sorry. Phone...right, call Seth, right. Important...ringing, ringing...<

{SETH CALVERT} - Hello? This is Seth Calvert speaking.

{CHRIS MURIEL} - HEY CUZ WHAT'S HAPPENIN'?!

{SETH CALVERT} - Chris...shut up.

{CHRIS MURIEL} - Right. Sorry. But hey, what's the important stuff you needed to talk to me about?

{SETH CALVERT} - Oh, ha...I just left my cell because there isn't a phone in this forsaken bar that works. I wanted to talk to you about your match. You know you're going in there with three of the best...I used to tag with one, and I almost killed another one, and he's back...so I'm telling you to be careful. Joel's an excellent performer, and he knows what to do at the right time....

{CHRIS MURIEL} - You wanted to talk to me about him? Did you see his last promo? Sure, funny as hell the guy is, but not too smart. I think you're trying to give him more than he deserves there...

{SETH CALVERT} - You wouldn't be underestimating would you? Trust me I know what he...

{CHRIS MURIEL} - Seth...dude, you heard what he said...*ahem* I'm "easy to beat...can't fight on the ground..." and here's my favorite: "able to be defeated without a single challenge"...

{SETH CALVERT} - That was Joel? Cripes...I thought that was...ah well, nevermind. Don't know why Craig David would be in SCW...I thought that was kinda weird. Anyways.

{CHRIS MURIEL} - Yeah, sounds like he's doing the underestimating there. I swear some cabbies don't have a clue. Besides...McDonald's sucks...no wait, Chicken Nuggets...

{SETH CALVERT} - Chris...

{CHRIS MURIEL} - Seth, calm down. LeVay isn't an average guy I know that. But he sure ain't the brightest of the four-pack get it? Calling himself the best might make him believe that he is, but to the other three guys he's facing? We believe he's the dirt we walk on...and y'know what happens when you put water on dirt, and then walk on it a lot.

{SETH CALVERT} - I cannot believe you just...

{CHRIS MURIEL} - HA! Did'ja like that one? Memories of Monster Factory eh? Man, that line was pathetic.

{SETH CALVERT} - Okay okay...moving on. J-Sin Knight...you saw his promo, I didn't. What's your analysis of him?

{CHRIS MURIEL} - Oh, the guy who gets pissed off every time he's reminded of his sucky alter-persona Hard-Kore? Eh...

{SETH CALVERT} - What's that mean? "Eh" as in "Oh God, Imma burn..." or "Eh" as in "Why am I wasting my time?"?

{CHRIS MURIEL} - A little of both. More towards the latter. Stupid Atheist. I hate Atheists.

{SETH CALVERT} - That's gonna help you win your match?

{CHRIS MURIEL} - Yeah. God on my side man. He'll help me kick the little s**t's ass. On top of that...his wordage sucks hard.

{SETH CALVERT} - What'd he say?

{CHRIS MURIEL} - Two words over and over again.

{SETH CALVERT} - Blow Me Blow Me Blow Me?

{CHRIS MURIEL} - Naw...this is J-Sin Knight...not A-Poc...

{SETH CALVERT} - Good point. Now, what'd he say?

{CHRIS MURIEL} - Little people...over and over again. "You little people" "I'm gonna beat you little people" "You are little people". And plus...who the unholy hell asks themselves how a move affects them? I sure as hell don't. It's a move, and unless it's a slap to the face, it's probably going to hurt. Dumbasses sting my brain Seth. They really do.

{SETH CALVERT} - Chris, I had to deal with A-Poc a lot more than you did.

{CHRIS MURIEL} - True...I'm sorry. It's just that J-Sin has no background info on me, even though Matt Budai spilled it all for him, and he thinks I'm going to be an easy pushover. I mean, what the freak. Laura Wilson's smarter than that...

{SETH CALVERT} - She called you a pansy...

{CHRIS MURIEL} - Who gives a damn? I'm not facing her...and if I was, I wouldn't lose to her...

{SETH CALVERT} - Shut up. So Knight's not a problem?

{CHRIS MURIEL} - Why are you so worried man? I'm one of the best that SCW's got to offer, and I was one of the best in DRWF. Television is my spotlight, so what's a TV star to do without a TV Belt? I mean, it's gonna be the goal I go for, and you know me from childhood man. I don't stop going until it's achieved. Remember that Thirty-Five foot high puzzle?

{SETH CALVERT} - Yeah...that. Actually, I was thinking of the turd you were tryin' to get out while I was sleeping...woke me up you little freak.

{CHRIS MURIEL} - Dang dude, shut up. We're on film. Anything else you'd like to talk about, oh esteemed Prince of Old School?

{SETH CALVERT} - Matt Budai.

>Well, I'm glad I sent Ana off to reserve at Harlan's. That place has got to be one of the worst for over-the-phone service. She's probably been waiting a good long time. Dang...ah well. I should probably stick around for this advice. Then I'll go scream at the stupid manager over at Harlan's.<

{SETH CALVERT} - Pal, you can take the other two lightly...but this is Matt freakin' Budai. I almost killed him, and that wasn't easy, and look where he is? Back up here. And, man, you're my cousin and all, I love ya to death...but he's gonna kick your ass. That doesn't mean he's gonna win...that just means he's gonna kick your ass.

{CHRIS MURIEL} - Point taken, observed, and will be heeded. Budai's the tough one. I ain't gonna make stuff up and say I'm gonna kick his rear...we're gonna kick each other's. Call me stupid...but it sounded like he had some respect for you still...

{SETH CALVERT} - Good, because it's evident I do right? Watch yourself out there Chris.

{CHRIS MURIEL} - I'm fightin' him for you cuz. I don't have beef with him...yet. He ain't insulted me any. The other two have, and they're getting their asses kicked by either me or Budai. J-Sin and Joel have already underestimated everyone else in the match. There's their downfall. And Budai? Well...it'll be interesting. But hey I gotta go outta here man. Ana's having troubles with the stupid manager at Harlan's.

{SETH CALVERT} - God again? Stupid people. Okay then Chris. I expect to see you on TV or something. Hear from you again before the match got it?

{CHRIS MURIEL} - Good deal. Peace man. *click* ANA! Did you get the reservations?

{ANA} - Yes...and I heard most of that. Babe, I know you love this, and it's important...but be careful please. No hospital visits...No deseo verle conseguir lastimado, entienda?

{CHRIS MURIEL} - Si. I got it. Je comprende, mon chere. Je t'adore! Allons Mangent Le Dīner...

{ANA} - You know I love it when you talk French...mmm

>And so out we walked hand in hand...or arm in arm. All in all, a bright lovely day. And a nice 16 oz Top Sirloin with a loaded Baked Potato and some good wine, topped off with an Ice Cream dessert (and other desserts....) makes it even better.<
