The First Steps to Regaining His Title

***It didn't take a genius. It's not that hard to figure out. Seth Calvert WAS the Death Row Wrestling Federation Champion. The hard part to figure out was whether or not it was a conspiracy or a plot to close down and vacate all the titles as soon as that happened. Now Seth must get back up that ladder as soon as possible, and retain what was once his. And where is it going to start? With this man:


Enforcer

And by golly...Seth's going to climb over this gigantic mammoth and begin to regain HIS Title.***
The Training Room of "The Prince of Old School" Seth Calvert Voice(Presumably Seth's): Okay Derian, let's take it one more time. This has got to be the hardest move I've had to get down so I can add it to my repertoire.

The DRWF cameraman that was sent in is standing right to the left of the door to the gym(get all that? good). We are assuming that he has just gotten there as there is a not exactly butler dressed man standing at the door about to knock.

Derian's Voice: SETH! Someone's at the door!

***Almost immediately, the door opens to reveal the once and future DRWF World Heavyweight Champion, Seth Calvert. He's got an Old School Jersey on with black sweatpants, red stripes running down the sides. His bleached blond hair is tied back. He looks a little exhausted. In the background, a video of the many times that Shane Helms has pulled off the Vertibreaker is being played, rewound, and replayed.***

Seth Calvert: Yeah Chris, whaddaya want?

Chris: That guy from the DRWF is here for ya. He's waitin' for ya to comment on Monday Night Megadeath.

Seth Calvert: Already? I'm still prepping! Ah well, I got the rest of the day. DERIAN! Rest down bro! Go pick up somethin' to eat. You the guy? A-ight, get in and sit down over there.

***Seth is pointing to a bench over by the bench press in another part of the gym. The cameraman walks over as Seth heads to a vending machine with sports drinks and water. As he's walking, the cameraman takes shots of the room. In front of the door is the training ring that Seth uses. In the middle section of the room are three varying punching bags, Everlast type. Behind that is the restroom area, equipment room, and a room labeled "STORM SHELTER". The cameraman pauses for a second, seeing as this part of the room is quite random and out of place, then moves on. Finally, the exercise room. Weights, presses, treadmills, ski machines, row machines, and even a Soloflex highlight the area. In reality, the room is layed out very much like a membership gym. The cameraman locates the bench Seth was talking about and takes a seat. Seth enters the picture again and sits down on the bench press with a couple of bottles of Bolt 45. He offers one to the cameraman who accepts. Seth opens his bottle, takes a gulp and the interview begins.***

Cameraman: Seth, this Monday at the New Era event Megadeath, you are involved in yet another tournament for the World Heavyweight Belt, once shortly-possessed by yourself.

Seth Calvert: Yes, and I'm facing a rather large challenge, by the name of Enforcer. Now, at DRWF Hatred, I was in IcE Games for this very same title. It was more of a King of the Hill type ordeal, the winner of one bout being faced immediately with another randomly selected opponent. This is a full fledged tournament. Meaning that there's legit rest time between your first match and your next one. But I know people are saying that I won't get a chance to get to my next match, because I've got Enforcer in the first round. I'm here to tell you that you're all wrong.

Cameraman: But Seth, you're going to be in the ring with a huge, former champion, one that could merely sit on you and make your bones shatter. How do you plan on defeating him without adapting to the Hardcore Style of the DRWF?

Seth Calvert: Tell me, pal, did I win the DRWF World Heavyweight Title at IcE Games with weapons? HELL NO! Am I going to win it this time using weapons? HELL NO! Am I going in there, Old School style, technically whippin' ass on every stick-in-the-mud that walks in that ring? Hell yeah. I'm going in there with a purpose. See, it may go down in the record books saying that I did win the DRWF World Heavyweight Title, but right next to that, it's going to say "Title Vacated, less than Twenty-Four hours later". And why? Because we needed a start? A new beginning? That's good and great, but I have to go through hell again to get it. Some jackass stuck something out on my way back to the surface and the belt came out of my hands. And I have to go back down...so be it. You say Enforcer's an ex-champion, but where is he now? He's lackluster. He's lost that original touch that he had a year ago. Back then, he was goin' into his locker room, writing some names down on a dry-erase board, then placing his finger on one of the names with his eyes closed. This was followed by a swift ass kicking that the person never saw coming. But where the hell is this badass now? He's faded into the background. Of course, being stuck with some nobody like HBK doesn't help, but you're telling me he couldn't keep up the streak of "HAHA, you dead"? I can compare him to Dennis Knight. The Last-known-as Mideon was part of the tag team known as the Godwinns. And by golly, in their day, before WWF Attitude, every wrestling fan knew the Godwinns. Bringin' the pig to the ring, the Slop Bucket, and their feuds with the Smoking Gunns, the Body Donnas, and a snob-nosed Hunter Hearst Helmsley. Following this, the Attitude Era set in, and the Godwinns, P.I.G. and H.O.G weren't fitting in. Knight was put into the character of Mideon...who was a loser lackey. Nowadays, you could say Mideon and people will say "WHO?" and if you tell them he was a member of the Godwinns back in the day, they say, "That successful and then just released?" Enforcer, you were a good champion. You were a widely recognized name who was identifiable. You were involved in some of the biggest feuds the DRWF has had. But the thing is, You were. Plain and simple.

Cameraman: So what you're saying is that Enforcer's time has by-passed him?

Seth Calvert: Without him knowing it. Enforcer, you will walk down that aisle in Anderson, South Carolina believing that it's your time once again to reign as the top big heavyweight in the DRWF. But then a pretty song by the Offspring, "Damnit, I Changed Again" will hit, and down will walk the person who will prove you wrong. The man who will tell you via his in-ring performance that you will not become the World Heavyweight Champion again. A man who will instead of you go on to become the Champion. And in my books, it's the first time. Because that time at Hatred wasn't enough to celebrate. But after I strap that gold around my waist, there's going to be a celebration bigger than you Enforcer. Bigger than Jackhammer. That celebration will take place, and damnit Enforcer, you ain't gonna stop me.

Cameraman: Well, thanks Seth. Pleasure interviewing you, and I know you're a busy man, so I'll depart from here so you can get back to updating your move repertoire. We look forward to a new Seth Calvert, better than before.

Seth Calvert: Yeah, my good buddy Derian Deniot who works for the NWA has been helping me with some new moves. Thanks for stopping by.

Cameraman: No problem, and thanks for the drink.

***With that, the two shake hands, and Seth ventures back to the ring area, where Derian is re-stretching. The cameraman stops by the vending machine again, deposits Fifty-five cents and grabs another Bolt 45. The last shot we see is Seth once again performing the move commonly known as the Vertibreaker on his partner.***


Three hours later, in the "Work Room"

***Seth has just finished showering after his training. He sits down in the "Work Room" in front of the TV broadcasting DRWF Television. He sees that an interesting speech which is concerning the Old School Prince himself. When the commercials end, we see that Enforcer is the one making the comments. Seth laughs (not in a "Haha that was good" way, but a "Haha, what a dumbass" way) at the backasswards act done by Enforcer, and then chuckles again as he hears his statements. He then starts wondering and thinking aloud to himself.

Seth Calvert: Older than you. HAHAHA...is Steve Corino older than Dusty Rhodes? Don't think so. Me? I'm 24 years of age. My prime ahead of me. And that's what the Old Guy doesn't have. He didn't see IcE Games because he was busy sleeping his ass off like the lazyass that he is.

***Seth gets up from his chair at this point and looks at the photo taken of him with the World Heavyweight Title before it was stripped of him. He smiles a slick, sly smile and continues with his Monologue.***

Seth Calvert: Yeah, "I'll hit him with the Punisher!" Oooh...scary one there Enforcer. Punisher...how punishing is the move? No wait, don't need an answer there, no one gives a good damn. ***Imitating Enforcer*** Yah, dat's right, I'm a big fat ugly man. You gonna need a bulldozer to knock me off. C'mon...do we hear that from every guy more than Seven feet tall more than 450 pounds? Yeah. I'm sure Giant Gonzales was thinking the same thing when he faced the Undertaker. Since he was big, he'd win. But he ended up...hmmm...what was it? Did he lose or did he walk out of the fight? Ah well, memory loss for a sec. I know he didn't win. It doesn't matter to me whether you think you lost your game. If you did, great. If you didn't, better. And again, we hear the same old "You'll be in a hospital tomorrow morning" spiel. Screw that. Nothing but empty threats. ***Looking at the TV*** Enforcer, you're the one who'll realize your mistakes. You severely underestimate me. And that's what every single person at IcE Games did...and they fell. One by one, they fell. And I didn't do it the Extreme way...I did it my way. DAH! Damn Usher song. You're underestimating me, and you'll pay for it with a loss. Know that, and maybe...just Maybe you'll beat me...but the chances aren't very high for that.

***Seth sinks slowly back into his chair folding his hands as he watches the rest of the DRWF News and Rumors done by Johnny Scotch. He smiles at the "Heart"ful mention of his name as the scene fades again to black.***

ENFORCER, GET READY TO HAVE YOUR ASS KICKED, OLD SCHOOL STYLE! CLASS DISMISSED!
