It’s night time.
All the lights are shining.
The cars and limos lined up down the street bringing the traffic down to a halt.
There seemed to be hordes of people. Everyone dressed in their fanciest clothes to look good at the hottest spot in town.
The world premiere of Steve Awesome’s newest film. It’s name was flashing on the LED marquee high above the door of the building
“My Grandpas Uncle Escaped From Hell”
Steve Awesome stood inside a room with a window that looked out onto the people below him. Steve just smiled and nodded at the giant line outside. He was used to sold out crowds. But the Assistant Director, AKA the guy who did all the actual work, was standing next to him just looked shocked at the actual number of people he could see waiting to view this movie. Steve looks over and sees the dropped jaw and laughs.
“What’s the matter man? You never see a sold out crowd before?”
The guy just shakes his head in awe. It took a minute for him to find the words to say.
“I just can't believe all these people came to see the premiere of this movie.”
Steve goes to say something but the assistant director continues.
“When they see it, they are going to want a refund man!”
Steve just kind of shrugs it off.
“Thats why you let them pay you to watch it, then you leave before it's over! That way they can’t ask you for a refund.”
Steve gives the other man a confident nod and points to his brain. The assistant just sighs and walks away. Steve takes a glance at his watch and noted the time. It is almost time for everyone to load into the theatres to watch his film. When he glanced up, there was an entire NPW press crew in his face.
“WHATINDA!?”
A startled gasp shoots out of Steve’s mouth and he covers his heart to check his beat.
“The hell did you all come from?”
The press crew doesn't waste much time and starts firing off questions.
“Steve Awesome. First off congratulations on your new movie and becoming the XHF Tag Team Champions for a second time alongside Curtis Kanyon.”
Steve takes a second to make sure his hair looks good.
“Oh um, thanks. I just want to say one thing about that. To all the people complaining that I was handed that championship, I went out there and got the pinfall and retained the tag titles for my team. That officially means that I deserve to hold the tag team titles until the next challenge.”
The interviewer nods his head.
“I’d agree with that, You’ve been all over the Network lately. With Overheated and Clash of the Icons.”
Steve nods his head.
“It’s true. That’s what Face of the Franchise stuff is all about. Everywhere I go, I am a star. And hey, I may not win them all, but if you look at my track record, I win most of them. And pretty soon, I’m going to be be adding another title into my luggage bag.”
“That’s true. At August at the Atlantic you will be getting the title match against The NPW Openweight Champion. But it could be D, a man you've been having some words with, or Donzig, a man who has answered D’s open challenge and could very well take the title. What are your thoughts on that? Will it change the way you prepare, not knowing for sure who you will be facing?”
Steve rubs his chin as he listens and then smiles.
“Yeah, I saw that whole open challenge nonsense. It’s almost like D said, “Here! Someone come take this title from me because I don't want to face Steve Awesome anymore.”.
Steve shakes his head and laughs.
“But that’s fine. He’s clearly trying to run because I caught onto his plan. He was going to use EVK against me.”
The journalist disagrees.
“”Well everyone actually thinks Miss Krauss is allied with you. She even got a feature in your reality show.”
“Look man, I can't control the editors. Sometimes they slip things in when I’m not paying attention. But look presser man, I’ve been around the block enough times to know when I’m getting worked you understand? Plus after what I saw at Shockwave!? EVK was all over D in that locker room. They aren't fooling anyone. Besides, I dont care if EVK interferes in my matches, or stalks me, I dont want her too. I dont NEED her to beat whoever is the Openweight Champion.”
Steve gives the camera a confident stare.
“I can do that on my own!”
“And speaking of on my own, I have a triple threat match against the very violent Jesse Jamester and whoever the hell Fowler or whatever his name is. I’m going to win that on my own too.”
He exclaimed matter of factly.
“See here’s the thing. I know that Jesse is coming into this match with a cool strut. He’s coming off one hell of a victory on the Gun Show. If I were him, I’d feel pretty good about myself too. And Fowler is looking to debut into this company with a bang. I get it man, I’ve been there. You are ready to come out there and unleash hell and show the world who you are. I’m with that.”
He shrugs it off.
“Problem is, you now run into Steve Awesome.”
He feigns empathy.
“And I know that sucks because you guys were flying high on the big wave you were riding. But now when that bell rings, your big happy wave comes crashing into the pier. And that pier is me. The big win buzzkill. The new face adrenaline dropper. Boys when you face me, you have to accept your fate.”
He smirks.
“It’s time to come down and face reality.”
He shrugs it off.
“Its just Face of the Franchise Stuff.”
Smirk. Fade.
