We switch to the SWAT Academy. The latest batch of students are seated around the ring, socially distanced apart. Timeless is standing in the ring in his KGB baseball style top, it’s unbuttoned and his gold chain shines in the light resting on his bronzed ripped body. He looks incredible and does a peck pop, just for the fuck of it, pacing around the ring looking over the students, one is not paying attention and scrolling on his phone and Timeless swigs down some of his bottled water he is carrying then hurls it at the kid, the bottle sconing him in the head and water splashing all over him. The student looks around shocked and stands up angrily then see’s Timeless in the ring staring at him and he stops in his tracks, slowly sitting back down.
Timeless : Sit down, shut your mouth, and pay attention. That goes for the lot of you out there too.
The students move around uncomfortably.
Timeless : Right. Listen up. This is going to be the most important lesson any of you will ever learn in this business. First of all, take a good look around the room at those around you. You love these guys, they share your dream and together, you are going to rock the world, right?
The students look around at each other, smiling
Timeless : WRONG! A year from today, you will be lucky if two of you are still in the ring. Five, Ten years from now if you are the one in a million fortunate enough TO make it and still be working in this business, i guaran damn tee you no one else sitting around you will be beside you.
It may be cruel, but it’s the truth Jack. The reason you need to know, you see, you lot, and anyone else who makes it in this sport, you are all just a piece of meat, a walking robot.
The students look confused.
Timeless : That’s how the office see you. To them, you are just a dollar sign. Same goes for me even. You do what they say and when they say it. Whatever they tell you to do, you DO!
Timeless is pacing around the ring, looking each of them in the eye as he is talking
Timeless : Trust me, that’s how it works. Everywhere you go, the promoters there will have their own personal favourites. How do you stand out? How do you get past all them home town favourites on your journey? Well, there is only one way. You do what they want you to do, better than everyone else.
You get yourself over with the fans. Not the boys in the back, if you do what the office tells you and be professional, the boys in the back will respect you. They won’t trust you, they want your spot and you want theirs.
You want to be a cowboy and run your own race? They’ll sort you out in a flash and they will stiff you and stretch you night after night after night until you ‘get it’ or you fade away.
Don’t fall into any bullshit politics and get caught up in anyone’s drama’s. They hook you up on the ‘whatsapp’ or whatever you kids today are on, saying, check out this guys shit would you. Asking you how did I lose to him? Trust me, don’t buy into it. They are looking for validation, surely I can’t have lost because I am not as good as him, surely there must be something wrong here, check it out. No! Don’t!! They lost because they lost. That simple.
Timeless continues pacing the ring.
Timeless : The fans today, they think they know everything about this business. You lot should know, you were one of them three months ago before you started paying us to train you.
You all think you know it all. Yet, even with the business being exposed all them years ago and the ‘smart’ fans of today knowing how it all works, people still watch. People still pay their hard earned to come and watch us do what we do. Why is that?
Timeless stares out into the group, no one speaks up.
Timeless : I’ll tell you why, because they still want to believe. They want to suspend disbelief and be taken on a ride. They want to be entertained! They want to be swerved! That’s where we have to be better, better than previously, we got to take them on that ride. You miss one move! One single botch, and they will never let you forget, they will ride you for it for the rest of your career.
Look after your bodies. Save the big bumps and flashy shit for when it counts. Do people come and watch because you did some flashy shit? Or do you do flashy shit because people are watching?
Timeless leans on the ropes.
Timeless : I am serious in this guys. Stay out of the drama. You want to make it to the top, you can’t afford to get caught up with the guys who won’t even make it and their crying. It may be harsh but it’s the way of the world.
Even in this XHF Rumble. The Stand Out like myself, I am up against it. The home town boys of the XHF, they have their own personal favourites, I need to be twice as good as them. Three times. I need to work harder, and stronger than all of them.
That’s what gets you over in this world. Working harder and stronger than the others, and not just one week, one big show! Week in, week out! Show in, show out! It has been drummed into me since I was sitting where you are.
Then, when you can do that, the rest comes, you develop your persona. Yes, it’s true, the closer he is to yourself, the better. Amp him up, the catch phrases and monikers, they come with time, you don’t need all that day ONE. Develop them as you grow and evolve. Always evolve.
Timeless cracks his neck
Timeless : I didn’t start off like this.
Timeless flexes for them.
Timeless : Years of dedication got me where I am, hitting them weights every day, no days off! I didn’t start off as Timeless even. I was just a technical workhorse with a hot girlfriend. I thought that was my calling, Indie wrestling moves are larger than any character persona gimmick crap I thought coming into this world. It’s the moves and matches people want to see.
Ha.
Timeless laughs
Timeless : How naive. That’s just one piece of the puzzle. I became Timeless! I became a The Master of Time and Space! Roxy became Roxylishus! It takes all the pieces to make it in this world, don’t try too hard, let it come, there is no rush. When you think you’re ready, believe me, you’re NOT!
The fans might tell you you are ready, they don’t know shit, they will tell you you are ready and scream your name for a year, and the second you get your shot, they’ll shit all over you and start screaming for the next up and comer who ‘deserves it more’.
The only person who knows when you are ready, is the money man, he won’t pull the trigger until he knows, because he wants that cash. You get over, he cashes in!
Timeless smiles to them. Them pearly whites we don’t see very often gleaming. He stares right into the camera, his eye’s piercing your very soul.
Timeless : I am SIR WINSALOT.
We are the KGB.
We like to Root and we make all the Loot!
We take out the Trash, and collect all the Cash!
We break your heart and tear you apart!
We make Stacks and break backs!
I’ll rupture your spleen and knock you out clean!
I am the Ultimate Male Supreme!
Every breathing Woman’s Wet Dream!
A God Damn Wrestling Machine!
Un fade able!
