Puppets: Fall of 1000 Bastards [December 28, 2003]

[Dave D-Flipz]

*Death Trap drives up in his corvette to the arena. He gets out and heads into the arena. He walks to his locker room and grabs his stuff. He comes out dressed in his training clothes and heads to the gym. The camera follows him into the room as he begins lifting weights*

: Well it comes down to 26 hours before the big Pay-per-view where I take the title in an Annihilation Complex. We get to the two men who will give me the most trouble. The first is of course the coniving, plotting, ruthless Rat Bastard. The man who supposedly is going to have a lot of back up. He has Chris Sanders and two men wearing masks who are too weak to show themselves. He thinks they will factor in the decision of the match. I say bring them on. Rat Bastard is slipping. he has to resort to help to be able to stand up to Reeshi and myself. He cannot hope to win this if he cannot do it with his own talent. But then that is what I expect from a no talent. For someone who is to be the "greatest champ ever" you seem to rely on backstabbing traitorous evil strategy instead of talent. In fact you are exactly what you advertise, a bastard. You suck. Rat the last two one on ones we had I owned you and totally made a fool of you. I beat you without stress twice. In that tag match I was distracted by helping JL, and I never tapped, I never tap. I have never in my life tapped believe it or not. But now I'm out for revenge Rat. And you think you can stop me?

*He goes to the mat and starts doing pushups.*

: You see Rat you are low down. You think all I care about is gold . . . while that gold is what I'm after I do it all for the fans. I am the one they root for because I am like them, real people. I am the man who wins after being raised from nothing! I am the hero here Rat. And if you want to prove me wrong then try me. I will break you faster than a child breaks his toys. GD and I are good buds and whoever comes out of this with the title we will still support each other. We won't become rivals over something like this. Yea we both want that title and we will beat each other up for it but we have fought 7 times against each other, 10 if you count tag team and we are always even so there is never bad blood Rat, not like you. You can't seem to win against me. What makes you think that will change? I think you are the one who can't be trusted. Sanders thinks you trust him and you help him but its all about Rat isn't it B Diddy? You don't care about him or those masked men. You are the loner and the traitor. You are the deceiving fool. But you deceive yourself. This is not the chance for you to be a champ again.This is my chance! The fans will be rooting for ME! That's all there is to it, all I need is the fans. I have the speed, strength, ability, inteligence! You cannot stop me once I'm on my rampage. This is my turn. The eyes are not upon you, it's not about you. It's about me, the Master of Puppets. It's about how I am going to finally get my chance to shine and be champion. Rat Bastard,this is your end. Steel, pain, blood, sweat, tears. It's all here! This is it Rat, better get ready. Final Judgment is at hand! All hope for you is lost.

The following is a Rat Bastard reply to my post needed to include part 2 - Dave

The scene reopens moments later with Rat wondering the back hallways of the very same arena that Deathtrap is training in. A tooth pick hangs lossely from rats mouth as he swagers very cocky like down the hallways, fianlly he decides it is time to grace the world with his words of wisdom.....

:" Are you really as stupid as you come off in your promos Deathtrap? From the way you talk, you lead me to belive that we are employed by two diffrent companys. You seem to think that you can get ahead in this buessnes by being the nice guy, by being the freindly go lucky little {Mongo Edit: Fuck Off} that you are. You seem to think that Gravedigger is just as dumb as you are. You seem to think that he hasn't grow sick and tired of you and your midcard talent trying to steal the spot light from him. This whole damn company is back stabbing and coniving, and belive me when i say everyone has a price and that everyone wants to reach the next level. Thats the diffrence between you and I,ass. I have been to the top of the mountain. I have been in some of the biggest most ground breaking matches this company has ever seen, while you were doing battle with the likes of whocares and wannabes. While you were fighting your little homo heart out for that worthless pile of shit Phonix Title, i was busy being the first ever X*Crown Champion, While you were wasteing your time in the ECF, I was holding steady as the longest running North American Champion in XHF history, and while you were busy getting your ass handed to you by sorry ass Hardcore Harry, I was molding the careers of people like Prodigy and Rancor. You see Deathtrap, i know how to take a young kid and mold him like clay into a champion. I know what it takes to get under the skin of people like Reeshi and J.L. I know what needs to be done to become the biggest star in the XHF sky. While you on the other hand are a complete and utter dumbass who has no clue what he is about to step into in less then 24 hours."

Rat keeps walking down the hallsways untill he comes to an open portel with a clear view of the ring, he smiles as he watches Deathtrap work out.....

:" Look at you down there, trying so hard to convince yourself that the XHF Title will be around your waist tomorrow night. Trying so hard to make yourself feel better about your inpending fate. Your so excited because you have a couple of fluke wins over me, You think that makes you big shit. I don't measure myself by shallow wins like you Deathtrap, I measure my sucess in the titles and bodys that lay in my wake. You seem to think that it matters to me if Chris Sanders trusts me or not, You seem to think that people worry about trusting Rat Bastard. Trust isn't a issue Deathtrap,trust dosen't make the XHF world go round and round, getting ahead and getting gold does. You have to much trust Deathtrap, to much trust in your former ECF partners, to much trust in walking out of XXX with the XHF Title, and just a little too much trust in someone like Gravedigger."
Rat learns against the wall and smiles, the smile the world knows over as Rats way of sly talking......

:"Don't you worry about the masked men,son. You say there cowards? thats fine, you can say what you will, it still won't change the facts. It still dosen't change the fate of the 5 other men inside of that Chamber tomorrow night. I just hope after the dust clears tomorrow night that you finally come to your scences. I hope you getting your ass handed to you on a silver platter opens your eyes up and makes you realize that playing with the big boys just isn't for you. Your reality check is just hours away,{Mongo Edit: Fuck Off}. After you get your ass kicked O.G. style, don't take it personal kid, Just realize that you can't cut the mustard, you can't hack it."

Rat glances back at Deathtrap still training and smirks before walking away and the scene fadeing to black.

*DT stops and slams the door in front of Rat staring him in the eye.*

: Heh . . . you think the old intimidate and run tactic will help free you from me? Don't think so Rat. You seem to forget that it was I who KO'd you TWICE in a month one on one. But hey if you think you are one of those nobodies that's all fine. But you see you have had success backstabbing people, I get the same by being my own ruthless self, only difference is people like me and know me so they have no reason to not trust me. I can trust GD but I would never expect him to lay down or save my ass in that ring instead of winning. I may be trusting Rat but I'm no fool. And if you ever try to call me one again I will personally deliver your head on a pike to Congo. I'm not some simple mid-carder Rat Bastard. I've been in many main events, I've held titles in more feds than you can count . . .well you probably can't count higher than three but nonetheless I have held the top title in 3 different feds and titles in 6. I'm not just some rookie. I could have done like GD and stayed right at the top from the start but when I join feds I like to work my way up and prove myself. I don't let people hand me opportunities. Not everyone is a backstabbing bitch like you. Most people have something called talent! I seem to remember in ECF, you were there for about a month before GD and I demolished you everytime out there and you quit. You may have been to the top Rat but every mountain has a valley and you are being shoved down there by the new king of the mountain.

*He moves forward as Rat steps back*

: And you mold people in your image? Man that's a horrible world to live in! You get under everyone's skin because you are an annoying bitch who thinks he's a God and thinks he can do what he wants because he was champ a few times. The face of the matter is . . .YOU DON'T HAVE A TITLE DO YOU? No so right now all your accomplishments mean nothing to me. I don;t think beating you makes me big man, but it means I know I can and that makes me a little more confident. I am the master at improvising with what the matches give me so I think I will live, I'll find a way to adapt. Hell I have Reeshi scared in his boots so he hasn't shown himself, you may think it's you but he fears me. Same as at Supremacy with the ref and the interference. He fears me. He has some brains and is avoiding me. Why? Because I'm the Master of Puppets and he learned his place was with the rest of the puppets but you don't seem to think you apply! So maybe I'll just have to show you tomorrow night when I take that title from under your nose and prove to you it was no fluke when I beat you before.

*He turns his back*

: Trust is not a weakness unless you use it to have others work for you. I don't. I trust people because I like them. I trust people because it's who I am. Those fans trust me and I return it. I know they will root for me, I know they will drive me to beat you. You wanna count bodies . . . try tomorrow, I'll help you since you will be out. I will be standing victorious, granted with my bumps and bruises, but victorious, over 1 . . . 2 . . . 3 . . . 4 . . . 5 men after a 1 . . . 2 . . . 3! You see Rat it isn't about revenge or gold. It's about success, achieving my goals, getting that glory. Something you will never get. Just remember my words. Remember how I told you the masked men would not help you, how Reeshi and Rat and JL and GD and Primetime will all fall to me. Remember . . . because you will be regretting ever stepping into my prescence today. You will regret your decision to run your meely little mouth. You will regret egging me into passing your Final Judgment. You will regret . . . stepping into the Annihiltion Complex . . . and your own . . .

*The fans chant "DEATH TRAP!"

: . . . Damn right . . .
