New York City. In a press conference room with Trump Tower, sprting insiders and fans sit and wait for this "major announcement" to be made regarding a new promotion operating in the area.
In a sepreate room, Carmella Blackheart sits alone. Thinking, contemplating exactly what it is she's doing. This...drove Vincent to insanity, an insanity she tried so hard to keep him from reaching. With word of him running amock in Toronto as of the present day, she wishes that she could have done more.
I failed you, Vincent. I wish I could turn back time and make things right...
She exhales and closes her eyes.
The only thing I can do is contiue where you left off. This is for you...I won't let your dream, die. I can't, even if it kills me...I will make this work.
Carmella rises to her feet and shrugs her shoulder. It was as if she was warming up for a prize fight...it was a fight of sorts, wasn't it?
Time to make it official...
Stepping out the room, she makes her way to the conference area, met by many journalists and photographers. She reaches the podium and wastes no time in speaking.
Ladies and gentlemen...I've called this meeting to announce to you that wrestling in New York is not dead. I'm hear to announce the inception of the Xtraordinary Wrestling Association, XWA.
The room fills with whats and hows...but she continues.
Many of you know that I spent time in LXW as GM of their RingMasters brand. I have much experience in the world of sports entertainment, and look forward to bring this company up and making it a success. I will put my all into it and make XWA a promotion that exceeds the standard that my former company reached in such a short period of time.
The question begin to come soonafter.
"Ms. Blackheart, do you really believe that with the newest companies that have started in Toronto and Detroit, and even the more established ones...that this venture of yours will pan out?"
I can't give you any guarantee of that. All I can do is extend a welcome to any and all of those men and women out there who believe we can. That is what this all about...you have to believe. I do...and I know those who sign with XWA are those who believe themselves. This isn't a new fed for me, it's a second calling.
"So do you deny that LXW is just a footnote?"
Her eyes slink in a slight bit of anger.
LXW was something new and amazing, it was one of a kind, and I hope to God that we can even come the least bit close to it. Nobody, NOBODY will ever deny it's importance. Was it mishandled? To an extent yes...but the man who founded it, as unstable as he might have been, had a dream. A passion that I myself share with all of my heart. It's spirit lives on in every fed that a superstar from it now resides, and it will live on with us. That's why I chose to call it XTRAORDINARY. We cherish the past, and embrace the future...and maybe in time this company will live up to it's name.
"So what is XWA's infrastructure going to look like?"
XWA will compete not only here in New York, but around the world. As being a showcase of the finest talent, we will have two divisions. We look to have a roster of at least 20 female and 30 male superstars. Staff will be selected and hired on an as needed basis.
I'm looking for a fast sign up period to take shape and there are those who undoubtedly sign up to be a part of this company when the wires reach thy're proper channels. I myself am also...personally pursuing certain stars to take part.
The question continue to pile on, and after what seemed to be a productive conference, Carmella puts it to rest.
I thank you all for you time today, and I look forward to XWA becoming something special...something that we can look back on and say that was what it's name implies.
She waves to the crowd with a smile and steps away from the podium. Flanked by several accountants and other staff members, she places her hand to her brow. Was she doing the right thing? Too late to turn back now...
A New Day Dawns...
