Past, Present, Future.... (Assassin, Outlaw, Storm, Craven, Nikki, Bock) -- GWA Insurrection Role-play board

The world of wrestling has always been filled with stories that have never been finished.. Men move on to other federations. Injures force people into early retirement... The federation looks for a new direction... Over the seven years in the wrestling business Steele has been part of so many feuds that never were finished because of things out of both wrestlers control... Stories that still look for their conclusion after years of build up.. Hopefully one such story will finally have its day in the sun and be put to rest.
It started in the SWA about three years ago. Furious Steele had been recently signed from the FWA after it closed it doors and once again Steele was left with a world title belt and no federation to defend it in... Steele entered the SWA and had a few matches to establish himself and then did something completely out of character. Steele started to tag with this young buck that nobody had ever heard of by the name of Nikki Silver. Back then he was not the Icon or any of his little catch phrase names. He was just some whinny little punk who was completely green in the business. From day one Nikki had the look and charisma for the wrestling business but he was young and pretty raw. There are veteren wrestlers who will take a rookie like this and put them under their wing and help mold them but that has surely never been Steele's style. The team of Sex and Violence was born and Steele and Nikki tagged regularly.
They tagged for a few months and it was a rocky relationship at best with Steele being ready to destroy Nikki when Nikki would keep running his mouth. Why didn't Steele destroy him? This mysterious team continued until they finally won the SWA tag titles at a PPV only to drop them the next week in a tag match. The already strained relationship snapped after the belts were not there to hold the team together. Usually when teams break up they have a match to settle the score but that never happened.. Steele disappeared from the SWA shortly there after and spent time wrestling in the GWA (Global Wrestling Association) for some time and found glory and gold but still so many things were left unfinished and unexplained...
Now it is August of 2002 and Nikki Silver has climbed to the top of the mountain and captured the GWA Gladiator Title. With Steele and the Outlaw having a sidebet of the ages on the table and so much unsettled business with Silver it seems like in one match at Insurrection the "Furious One" can gain an opportunity to set the score straight. As time goes on hopefully the stories will find their ends and the world can see what has hide in the shadows for so long.
Enough talk of the distant past lets focus on the past few days. Too The Max has come and gone and it was with out a doubt the most successful PPV the federation has seen in quite some time. Steele and the Assassin faced off in one of the most brutal matches in the history of the GWA and both men showed why they are at the dance. If it was a regular hardcore match the Assassin could have had a good chance to win it several times but Steele really showed why this is his specialty match because despite the sever beating he took at the hands of the Assassin he just kept getting back up until he wore down the much larger man. both men paid the price for this match though, this was the kind of match that shortens men's careers. This was the kind of match that ends men's careers... Now both men must try to pick up the pieces of their shattered bodies and prepare for their next match.

[Scene opens in the rafters of an arena with Furious Steele sitting on one of the beams looking down at the empty ring in the middle of the building. The building looks like it is in preparation for next weeks Insurrection with the ring, chairs, and security railings already in place and the entrance stage halfway set up. Steele is wearing his usual black sleeveless "I Hate You" t-shirt, cut off blue jeans, and black army boots. His black straggly hair covers his eyes but the scowl on his face is very clear. Steele has several fresh scares on his arms and face from his encounter with the Assassin at Too The Max and even looks like he has some stitches on his forehead that are sticking out through his hair. Steele sits quietly for several moments before speaking with his soft but harsh voice.]

Steele: Assassin, there is one thing you can be very sure of.. After that war the last thing the Furious One feels like doing is laughing.. At Too the Max you showed the world, and more importantly ME why you were a Gladiator Champion and why you most likely will be one again... And the Furious One showed the world exactly what he is willing to go through to get what he WANTS... More importantly the Furious One showed the WORLD why NOBODY can defeat him in the Survival of the Fittest match.. People can pin me for a fast three count or get me disqualified but nobody can break my mind.. Nobody on this planet can break my Spirit... The Assassin like most of the GWA roster is physically superior to the Furious One but just like the rest of the roster the Assassin does not have the desire.... the compulsion.. The NEED to win this match at all cost...

[Steele rolls his neck to release some tension in his body and before turning towards the camera for the first time.]

Steele: As long as you work for another Assassin you will not control your destiny... You are a machine of destruction.. Free yourself of the shackles that Storm has placed on you.... Do you think his friendship will last a second longer then you are useful to him? Assassin, you have gained the respect of the Furious One, which is not an easy feat... Think of this for the next few days... Think of the pain that is still pulsating through your body.. Think of the danger your career was put in.. Think of what you had to gain out of this... Johnny Storm knew exactly what the Furious One was capable of doing.. He knew exactly what I am willing to do to another person... Storm used you to do his dirty work.. Your career was worth risking if it gave him even the smallest chance of ridding himself of the me... Think long Assassin of the kind of company you keep... Snoops used you for long enough.... Learn from that mistake......

[Steele stands on the support beam and slowly starts to walk along it towards the middle of the arena. The camera switches to a view from the other side of the arena and quickly zooms in on Steele as he approaches the center of the arena.]

Steele: Which brings me to Johnny Storm.. You actually think the Furious One is going to be forced into conformity by waving a bone in my face like I was a little dog??? At Too The Max you put your best man against the Furious One in hopes of destroying the thrown in your side but he failed Storm.. You failed Storm... Storm, you know the business like the back of your hand.. You have put yourself in a position where you can not lose this power struggle against the Furious One but you can not win it either... Whether you like it or not Storm, you need the Furious One for your ratings.. The idiots that fill this arena and watch faithfully on TV want to see the Furious One get hurt, get punished, and get beaten.... Storm, you know that the other wrestlers are watching you fail to put me in my PLACE and it is not long before others will realize that you hold no real power except for meaningless threats....Your powerbase will fall around you Storm and there is nothing you can do about it except for fold to the Furious One...

[Steele sits with his legs straggling on each side of the beam and looks down to the ring below.]

Steele: So it comes down to Bock and Craven fighting it out like two rosters at a cock fight... Master puts them in the cage and they fight as they are taught... As much is expecting from Bock.. He is so desperate to retain his fleeting glory that he will do anything Storm asks of him... Bock tasted the glory for a moment but when he blinked his title was gone... When he blinked his glory was gone... How quickly Bock went from the top of the world to one of the masses fighting their way up the mountain...
Then there is Craven... The Shadow has always been one of the most ruthless men in the business and was once one of the most feared but his failed love affairs have exposed his weakness... Years past nobody wanted to step into the ring with Craven because they knew he would hurt them.. Now he is a broken down shell of his former self... Craven reminds me so much of David or the Outlaw as he likes to be called these days.. Both have almost supernatural physical ability, failed romantic relationships, and both have failed to live up to their potential.... Even at Too the Max young David once again dropped the ball against X-Treme... Once again David had his mind on the many women who seek to own his soul.. Once again David has failed to take care of business.... Really David, you are making this all too easy... The Furious One could spend ten lifetimes getting a title shot and you would be no closer to achieving anything except another notch on your long list of ex-partners... But you are a man of your word David, and when the Furious One captures the Gladiator Title you will complete your part of the bet and serve under the Furious One.... It won't be that long of a wait despite what Storm things.. Arrangements are in the works to assure that Steele gets his chance at Little Nikki....

[Steele lays back on the beam and stares up at the sky.]

Steele: Nikki, if you are still the brilliant devious bastard you were when our paths first crossed then you know that you better run from the Furious One.. Surely you will talk your usual game and inflate your front but you know all too well of what I AM capable of doing and what I AM willing to do to get what I want... Enjoy your title reign Nikki because whether you OR Storm likes it the Furious One will get you in the Survival of the Fittest match for the title and then I will take that title from you.... Just as you know what I am capable of, I know what your buttons are Nikki.. I know exactly how EGO driven you are.... Our match will happen or your unpleasant past WILL BE EXPOSED....

[The scene slowly zooms away from Steele as it goes black.]
