Look at me now, as I stand here. Ready to go into a tag team match with someone who seemingly has a bit of a problem with me. It could be because he saw my partner and I as the only legitimate competition for his tag team championships.
Yet here we are, and from what I hear, we're co-champions?
It's a messy situation all over and all I can say is....damn it's going to be fun. This week I get to team with somebody who has run rings around me in the ring, and somebody who I have learned a lot from in the past. Whether you believe me or not Gibby, it's an honor to be on your side this week.
Ebony & Ivory won't know what hit them!

The phone rings, the generic ringtone playing as it vibrates across the table. Spike answers.
Spike: Hey amigo.
Falcon: Hey, you rang?
Spike: Yeah. I'm just a little confused about Reborn
Falcon: Well it seems for the foreseeable future at least we are co-champions.
Spike: Well, I guess that counts for something, right?
Falcon: It's not about the championships....
Spike: I agree, but to raise the prestige we need to hold them.
Falcon: I imagine it will be sorted out pretty soon though, I can't see Kelly Fox letting it go on too much longer.
Spike: It does lead to some fun though. I mean, this week should be a blast right? I get to team with an old....”friend” ….and you get to team with Simon again...
Falcon: Nostalgic.
Spike: Yeah......so.....
Falcon: Is this about Brad flipping out?
Spike: How did you know?
Falcon: It wasn't hard enough to find out, he left a bit of a mess....and remember, Alysson tells Ayla everything.
Spike: ….yeah.....he's not happy.
Falcon: Do you want him as your best man?
Spike: No.
Falcon: Blunt, he is your brother....
Spike: Who shoved a train spike through my hand. He tried to end my career, and jumps down my throat for the slightest thing every few months. I don't care what Brad 'thinks' he isn't a good friend, and he isn't the best of brothers either....
Falcon: Didn't mean to hit the nerve.
Spike: Eh....I'll be OK. I have a plan anyway.
Falcon: Kill Lex for him?
Spike: Oh hell no. I'm not touching that with a barge pole....besides, if I did it's probably just piss him off even more. Some honor junk or something.
Falcon: I can see the logic in that.
Spike: I'm gonna let him do the whole stag party....
Falcon: …..
Spike: …..you don't mind, right?
Falcon: Not at all. I'm a little relieved if I'm honest.
Spike: Yeah, I figure he'll be happy setting it up and having the chance to embarrass me on a grand stage....plus, he gets a chance to have a speech and the like.
Falcon: Ah...speech......dammit.
Spike: Yeah, and....for the love of God, don't mention the Mexico tour?
Falcon: Why not?
Spike: Because nobody knows! And it's staying that way!
Falcon: But it's funny....
Spike: ….don't make me tell everyone about Bangkok!
Falcon: I see your point.
Spike: So we're agreed?
Falcon: We've reached a mutual agreement, yes.
Spike: Awesome, well....I'm gonna go give Brad a call.
Falcon: Hopefully his hormones will be in check this time.
Spike: I'll see you tomorrow then....
Falcon: See you later bro.

Ebony and Ivory, we're facing each other once again. Last time we spoke we extended stories of the horrors of our home lands, of the strife we have each had to overcome, both physically, mentally, and culturally.
Then of course I kicked your teeth down your throats.
Falcon and I gave you a very hard round, we taught you a lesson and left you both beaten and battered in the middle of that ring. The Forgotten rolled onwards, and the Ebony & Ivory party train came to a stuttering, screeching halt. You guys had to take time to lick your wounds, I totally understand that. I know that your pride might prevent you from admitting it, but you don't need to worry about it.
I know, you know....that's all that needs to happen.
However, in the great spirit of the LAND OF THE FREE!!!!! I'm not going to prevent you from saying or doing anything either. My partner represents Team America, and I originally hail from Ireland, a place where people have died just to have their right to free will, free speech. So I don't see any reason to stop you. The only thing is, my partner is completely wrapped up in his national pride right now, so he might be a little over the top. I mean it's not like he's charging down to the ring with a two by four shouting “hoooooo!” but....I can't imagine he's too far off.
The thing is, my partner is an extremely talented individual. A decorated record that spans several federations, and an impressive record in tag team matches too, especially since forming the team of Team America. He and Simon have been on a hell of a roll, they even beat Falcon and I. A loss we wanted to avenge at Reborn, but that as it seems was not to be. So now the brass decide to have some fun, and mix us up...
Instead of having another lesson, this time you get thrown to the wolves. You have two of the best wrestlers this federation has EVER seen, or will ever see. You have two of the most hard working, head strong, and outstandingly handsome superstars standing across from you, in a week of confusion. A week where we both have a point to prove, a week where we both have to stake our claim towards those tag team championships, and it seems that once again, Team Africa gets caught up in it all.....
You will fall again, and I feel sorry for you because of it.
The thing is, I'm not going to stop.
I'm not going to go easy on either of you.
In honor of my partners, both this week and ever other week..I'm going to come harder, faster, and stronger than either of you have ever seen in your past, because me? ….well.....
I WANNA ROCK!
