Your Call.

[Trouble*]

My lord folks.

Ryan stood in the center of the ring. It was a week since he laid King out again. He looked tired. Tired of not being given a challenge, maybe. Ryan was used to being thrown around, not be considered a winner, and that's what he had done the past two weeks. He had come out victorious.

My lord is all I can say. I'll give you a little more respect now, King. You took a beatin' and kept going. 4 Down & Outs? You can take the damage. I'll give you that much. You took the beating like a man, and not like a little girl like I thought in week one. Kudos, you've shown you can take the beating needed.

Unfortunately, you still haven't shown me that you can give the beating back. Thus far, you've extended your hand out eagerly and received two losses like it was candy. Do you enjoy losses like the average person likes candy, King? I mean, God damn, you're good at losing. Thus far, you haven't dented my ego. You've inflated it even further. You've shown me, and the fans that you're all talk. You've shown that you don't have the energy to keep the old machine going. What happened? You dropped me like I'm hot in the beginning minutes of the match, and then you ran out of wind? C'MON! I'm looking for a challenge, King. Not a tackling dummy. I'd go hit up Bowen's gym for that.

You know, I think I've been unfair. I'm sitting here, picking match types that I feel are suitable. I picked an x-gen match, because as far as I know, you're able to challenge for the x-gen title. I've challenged you to a regular, 1 on 1 to see who truly is better in the ring.. But I haven't asked you what your specialty is. I haven't asked the big bear-cat what he'd like to fight in. How is that fair, Ryan? Give the man a chance. He can't beat your ass in your rules, so give him a chance in HIS.

That's it, King. Your call. Your match. Your rules. I'll prove that I'm better than you in your own rules.

Ryan lowers his mic, and waits for King's Linkin Park theme song to hit..

[King]

Moments later QWERTY begins to play through the PA, the fans starts to cheer as King makes his appearance on the entrance stage. With a mic already in his hand King gives a few moment for the crowds to simmer down.

Ryan, Ryan, Ryan
Well i gotta say congrats to you on the win last week, that was pretty impressive, and I'm impressed that you actually showed me some respect. I see that you still haven't gotten over me, well I kinda get that from everybody. Now as far as your winning streak is concerned, its just a matter of time before you get your ass kicked. You see I want you to inflate your ego more, I want you to feel on top of the world, I want you to feel I'm nothing but a stepping stone. Because it will make my victory all the more sweeter.

So your now asking me to make a match, asking me whats my specialty, what it will take to prove yourself worthy of my jungle. Well lets me answer your questions, first off i have a lot of specialties but I don't think your ready for those yet. So that got me thinking and I've came up with 3 matches and I just don't know which one to choose. So I'm thinking of a first in XWA history, you the fans will get a chance to choose the match type that me and Ryan face in.
The matches are;

Street Fight(extreme rules)
TLC
First Blood

So get on www.xwa.net and vote for the match type that we'll face in at March Madness.

the fans start cheering, King then looking back at Ryan

Well the pay-per-view is called March Madness and this is as mad as its gonna get.

King lowers his mic to check how Ryan's response.

[Trouble*]

That's kinda cute, I guess,

Ryan shrugs.

That you think I need you as a stepping stone. What do I need to climb? Your delusional ass might not want to believe it, but I'm above and beyond you.

Ryan lowers his microphone, and walks to wards the nearest turnbuckle. He hops up onto the top rope quickly, and turns to face King.

For a quick demonstration, this is where I stand on the ladder, King. XWA will become my empire. Where does the jungle cat stand?

Ryan hops off, and upon hitting the canvas, he sits down in the corner, Raven style.

Mhm. Case and point, King? You're not helping me. I'm making you look good. There's only two ways to go from here, King. Up, and completely off the ladder. You know what will happen if you don't start to put up, King?

YOU'LL BE OUT OF A DAMN JOB.

Won't that be a shame. Meh, not really.

Ryan gets up. He dusts himself off while shooting a smirk to King. He then walks to the ropes nearest to the entrance ramp, and chuckles.

I'm still waiting for you to get your boost, but I'm not going to hold back. Maybe the fans will choose a match that will be in your favor. Let's look at the list, and decide which benefits YOU.

Street Fight

The X-Gen standard. The same match I beat you in when we first tied up and went loose. Guess who won, King? Was it you? NNNNNNNNOPE! The Blaze Factor snagged that one from underneath you. Who has the upper hand in a match filled with weapons? Well, someone who's classified as X-Gen would! Who's 100% X-Gen here? RYAN BLAZE.

TLC

Another weapons match, but this time throwing in high spots for yours truly to unleash? Not even fair for you. I'm not going to complain if this is picked, however. Should be a great showing, if by show, you enjoy a landslide. You don't stand a chance.

First Blood

Your best opportunity of the night. However, with weapons, comes blood. Who is a better at wielding weapons? Moi! Unless of course we're talking about you wielding your weapon alone in the shower.

Ew, gross mental image.

Ryan shakes his head.

Good choices. I like them all.

[King]

King grins

I'm glad you like them. You see I pick them on our own strong points, with you its the Street Fight, for me its the First Blood, and i added a wild-card something that you and I haven't faced in and that was a TLC. But you know that the power is not with you, not with me, but with the fans.

The fans start to cheer loud knowing their in control.

And Ryan i won't be out of my job anytime soon, you don't have to worry about that. And as far as you having XWA as your empire, well its gonna take a lot more than winning and trash talking to get there. I just cant wait to get you in that ring and give you the biggest ass kicking of a life time.

King lowers his mic awaiting on Ryan's reply.
