The scene opens on the infamous Hollywood sign in Hollywood C.A. The sun shines brightly on the freshly cut grass on the Hollywood hill. It’s a beautiful warm May day, as we begin the countdown to “Primetime” Paul Roberts first ASW Pay-Per-View. The camera fades on the Hollywood sign and reopens on Roberts beautiful glass house on stilts on a secluded hill just outside of Hollywood. The peaceful house appears to be empty as it would be most of the time with Paul Roberts on the road all the time. But without warning a car can be heard pulling up into the driveway. As it arrives it can be seen that it is a black stretch limousine, the far back door opens and out steps guess who, “Primetime” Paul Roberts. The man who has made more waves in the past few weeks than any other man on the ASW roster.
In the past three shows Paul Roberts made a statement by attacking CASH on two strait Sunday Slaughters. The first time he attacked him after his match and walked out of the ring with the belt and dared him to come and get it, just to leave the belt a top the ramp for him to come and get. The next time was last Sunday at Slaughter when he attacked CASH back stage and then later that night ended CASH’s match with Zane Duncan before it ever even got started. Then last Wednesday on Showdown Roberts and Masset started there legacy as a tag team by winning there first match in a long line of victories for Chaos Theory. There has been tons of talk from The Dangerous Alliance about Roberts running his mouth too much and them wanting him to get back in line and learn his place. “Primetime” Paul Roberts has never and will never be one to go with the flow, he lives to burn people and ruffle feathers, get under people’s skin and make waves. Just to prove in the ring that he is everything he says he is. He never backs down and isn’t afraid to lose, which is something that is a rarity these days.
With all these things powering there way toward a Pay-Per-View that will showcase the first ASW Ultimate-X match, you have to wonder just what will happen when it is all said and done this Wednesday? Will “Primetime” prove to be a legitimate threat to everything that is ASW? Or just a bunch of hot air? This question has been asked every time Roberts enters a company and every time it has been answered with Roberts more than meeting the hype.
As Roberts steps out of the limo he is dressed sharply with designer jeans, black ASW “Primetime” Paul Roberts t-shirt, black top coat and dark black shades. He smiles looking at his house as he rubes his freshly trimmed beard. Primetime: Good to be home… Roberts smiles as the sunlight shines off his glasses. Primetime: Good to be home. Roberts pats the limo driver on his back and shoots him a smile, as he begins walking up to his beautiful house. With all the time that Roberts spends on the road he hardly ever gets time to make it home just to relax for a few days. But after last Sunday’s Slaughter Roberts made the decision to go home even for just a couple of days before he heads off to Honolulu for the Pay-Per-View. As he nears the front door one can notice that his manager and best friend Chad Monie is infamously absent from his side, something that is rarely seen. Chad has more or less been Roberts “guide” through life since high school with Roberts having a less than homey personal relationship with his family being an only child of a divorced couple with tragedy hitting his home on more than one occasion. Chad is Paul’s conscience more or less, without him who knows what trouble he would get into.
Roberts enters the home and sits down on the leather sofa taking a load off he removes his top coat and tosses it on the back of a living room chair. Roberts lies back on the sofa, removes his shades and closes his eyes soaking in the feeling of finally being home for once after all the time on the road. He begins to think to himself about all the thing happening over the past few weeks from winning the UWF Universal Championship at Redemption last April, to the UWF closing just days after, to his arrival in ASW. Primetime *Thoughts*: The last Pay-Per-View I was a part of was UWF Redemption. I told the whole roster that they were on notice the day I stepped into that federation that each and everyone toe the line behind me, that whoever won the Universal Title at Tidal Wave was just holding on to it until I came for it. And how long did it take for me to come for it? In my first match I won a fatal four way by pinning the champ himself and the very next week in my second match I defeated Streets Wilson to become number one contender. TWO matches is all it took me to become number one contender to the top title in the federation. In four matches I had won the Universal Championship that still sits in my trophy case just across the room. Roberts opens his eyes and looks over at his trophy case that contains authentic reproductions of all the titles he has won. Including the WCF National and World Heavyweight Championships, and the original UWF Universal Championship. “Primetime” closes his eyes once again as he smiles knowing that soon enough he will have an authentic reproduction of the ASW X-Title sitting in his trophy case as he holds the original title on his shoulder every week on ASW TV. Primetime *Thoughts*: What the hell was wrong with the president of that place? Closing the doors just days after the King of Kings wins his championship? Just days after the most watched man in the history of primetime TV becomes his top attraction? President Sanders was obviously not a very good business man, but honestly the UWF was just to damn easy, I walked all over the whole roster. I couldn’t be happier that, that place closed down. It opened the door for me to come to ASW, and gave me a chance to see younger hungrier talent. But honestly none of them can even really compare to me. CASH! HA! What a joke! That guy does not deserve to be X-Champion. What kind of a champion ducks a challenger? ASW will find out really quick what a real champion looks like. I wont duck challengers when they come knocking, hell I will probably go out and challenge the contenders! I am not just a fighting champion I am a champion that wants competition, I want a challenge. Not to just hold on to a title for endless amounts of time without defending the title like CASH or my partners’ favorite nemesis Wasted Youth. Primetime *Thoughts*: Wasted Youth…A tag team that has only a handful of matches in the last year, and constantly somehow get to break the title defense every five cards rule. I know, Masset looked it up. The Dangerous Alliance, a bunch of guys who couldn’t hold my jock are challenging for there titles only to get no answer from Wasted Youth, chances are Masset and I will work our way all the way up to the Dangerous Alliance challenge them for the number one contender spot and take it from them long before they ever will get there title match with the good for nothing champs. Masset has a hatred for Wasted Youth like nothing I have ever seen before. Primetime *Thoughts*: Masset…ha, that guy cracks me up. Has to be one of the most fun guys I have ever met. But honestly the fact that he is undefeated and holds the World Title could prove to be a problem if things move in a direction that would lead to me challenging him. But what are the odds that he will still even have the title by the time I come for it anyway? But then there is history, Masset has one of the best in the business…one that would even rival my own. Even so much that when people speak of Chaos Theory they speak about ME being the weakest link. Ha, if anyone is the weakest link it is Dominator, the guy chooses when he wants to show up and he lost to Robb for crying out loud. I know he is the one who originally got Masset to let me into Chaos Theory but honestly he is the weakest link. He is in the hall of fame though and that has to count for something. But honestly Masset is the leader of Chaos Theory…I guess…if that’s what you want to call him. If I was the leader we would have won the tag titles by now. Masset doesn’t even know what he inherited when I joined his team. Primetime *Thoughts*: The Dangerous Alliance would be smart to pay close attention to my match with CASH this Wednesday, because after I am done dazzling and amazing the crowd in Ultimate-X I come after them. They talk big talk but they don’t walk the walk. They go on and on about not wasting time with me. Yet, if it were me I am more than happy to kick the crap out of some curtain jerker looking to make a name for himself. I will find out just what they are made of and everyone else will too, when they see Robb, Devy, and Larson bow down at my feet. History tells an interesting story, and history suggests that I will stomp them into dust when they get in the ring with me. That is if they don’t duck my challenges like they do everyone else. Primetime *Thoughts*: Then there is the stable titles….we can’t even get that match signed because the D.A. can’t clear there schedule. Interesting isn’t it how they make it look like they are not afraid because management wont sign the match, yet they just continue to overload there schedule with more “important” things. Apparently they OWN the fed, its nice that they think that, but it wont take long to rip that group apart. When the stable match is signed I don’t care if the Brothers of Pain get involved or not, Chaos Theory is head and shoulders ahead of the rest and will be crowned the stable champions, if the D.A. can open up there schedule enough to have one match. Roberts laughs and sits up on the sofa, he grabs the remote control and turns on the TV. He hits his DVR button and he sees that there is 97 hours of recorded content on his DVR. Roberts is surprised and begins to look at what has been recorded.
As he scrolls down he sees things like medical dramas, legal and investigative programs, many of his primetime movies he was in before he started wrestling of course, along with every wrestling program he has appeared on since he returned to wrestling. But he isn’t really interested in watching TV, he just scrolls through it as he continues to think about the up coming week. Primetime *Thoughts*: I almost feel bad for attacking CASH as much as I have. Almost…if he would have just accepted my match when I challenged him he could have avoided all the pain that he was met with in the ensuing weeks. He brought it on himself, he would have just accepted the match I would have just embarrassed him once when I defeated him for the X-Title, instead he had to decline my challenge and avoid me at all costs. It was just a big mistake on his part, but who could blame him, he knew he couldn’t beat me, but honestly no body can if I am on my game. Honestly when am I not on my game? Sometimes I think it just isn’t fair that I am as good as I am and everyone else is just second best, I mean I sure wouldn’t want to be in the same fed as “Primetime” Paul Roberts. But I guess some people are just gifted and some people are not. Quite honestly I am the measuring stick that everyone else strives to be like, and its just too bad that no body can reach the level that I am at. I mean look at my movies….they are better than any action, drama, or comedy that any other lead male TV or Silver screen is putting out. It really is too bad that my time is all filled up with wrestling, because I would have loved to be James Bond in the latest installment of the franchise, but honestly you have to have priorities. Its just too bad the film had to suffer from me not being in it. Primetime *Thoughts*: I mean honestly look at some of these shows that would be 100x better if I was the lead instead of some guy that you have never seen. I would be the best doctor on TV, or the best detective, or even the best attorney. It doesn’t matter what I am doing, I am the best there is, but I just get way more gratification from being the best in wrestling. I mean I am so good I have to think of ways to keep winning from getting boring. I mean honestly just entering in a fed, just to win the top title right away had gotten stale. So what is even bigger than that? Winning all the titles, and being dominant doing it. Not winning all the titles just to vacate them day later like Black Robb, what a moron. I mean people are telling him left and right just how stupid that is and he talks about how I don’t realize everyone is laughing at me? People are laughing at him right to his face and he doesn’t even realize it. The guy is a joke, and I am sure Masset will make short work of him. He doesn’t even stand a chance, honestly the only person in this fed who I believe can beat Masset is his own partner…me. But I am ages away from even attempting to go after the World Title so I wont have to jeopardize our team or our friendship…hopefully. Roberts turns the TV off and stands up from the sofa and stretches his phone rings and guess who is on the phone? Of course its Chad, who else would it be? If you haven’t noticed Roberts isn’t an extremely popular guy in the locker room. He flips open the phone and answers it. Primetime: Yo, what’s up Chad? Chad: Hey Paul, what are you up to? Getting some relaxation in? Primetime: Yeah, haven’t been home in a long time and I am just sitting around and relaxing at the moment. I mean this Wednesday is Ultimate-X I am getting mentally focused. Chad: Yeah…I am sure you are…Listen Paul, I have found you a great trainer his name is Ned Tomkins. Primetime: A Trainer? I have never needed a trainer in the past and I sure as hell don’t need one now. Chad: Well at least meet with the guy, he will enhance you already incredible abilities. Primetime: I don’t know Chad, I don’t think I want some know it all trainer telling me how to win matches I already know how to win. I don’t need some guy telling me to go hit the treadmill and challenging my authority to run my own career at every turn. I just don’t like the idea. Chad: He isn’t going to run your career, you will still have full control, but this is a match that, even though you suggested, you have never competed in, and you need someone with the expertise to help you know what you will need to do to win this match. You don’t want to be the guy who runs his mouth just to lose the match he has been saying was already won. Primetime: First of all, that has never and will never happen. Chad: I don’t bring this up often but don’t you remember Xey Valentine? You even guaranteed victory in that match and you lost because of a photo finish accident. You don’t want that happening again do you? Primetime: Xey never gave me a re-match either Chad, so that’s not even relevant. But just so you will stop nagging me I tell you what I will meet with the guy one time, as a trial. But if I don’t like it I am not going to continue to let him mouth off to me. Chad: You can do as you like, but I am telling you this is good for you. I met him at Slaughter last Sunday, he was in the front row. He met with me after the show and told me he can train you to get ready for your X-Title match. He is defiantly a one of a kind character though, he must have some sort of brain disease or something because he shouts in an intense tone all the time. Primetime: Great…you have me meeting with a retarded fan. How do you know it just wasn’t some kid who was pulling your chain so he could meet me. Chad: Well he is like 90 years old, a wrestling veteran who when he wrestled was known as “Outrageous” Ned. Primetime: Awesome…an old, retarded, punch drunk, fan, trainer. What couldn’t be better? Chad: Well we will meet you at your house tomorrow morning, he is here with me he wants to say hi. Roberts rolls his eyes, and answers. Primetime: Hi, how you doing? Outrageous Ned: FINE THANK YOU! YOU BETTER STRAP ON YOUR DIAPER PRIMETURD BECAUSE WHEN I AM DONE WITH YOU, YOUR GONNA CRAP YOUR PANTS! Primetime: Nice to meet you too. Roberts hangs up the phone and plops down on his sofa once again. ASW Island Massacre is this Wednesday, and Roberts will be ready. CASH has already proven that he can’t hang with Roberts, the only question is, will CASH continue to run away at Ultimate-X or will it be were he grows a spine? It will be interesting to see how things progress but one thing is for sure, Ultimate-X will be the highlight of the night on Pay-Per-View.
