Romeo could be found in his locker room taping his wrists getting ready for the Only the Strong tournament. He didn’t have a clue who he would wrestle at the start but he knew that it was time to turn things around before the end of the season. Ever since he returned from the neck injury he hasn’t been the same. It’s been tough and he hasn’t been able to shake it off. He lost to King twice in a row and one of the matches was a pure rules match which he started making a living off from. So tonight had to be something new and fresh. It had to be the start of something new for Romeo. He was not satisfied with how he was performing in the recent weeks and it was time to step up his game. He had requested for a camera man to come to his locker room so that he may cut a promo earlier in the night. Just as he finished taping his wrists, there was a knock on his door. He immediately opened the door and saw that the camera man was there ready to cut his promo. Romeo stepped out of his locker room and began the promo.
Damn, now I know everybody knows that I haven’t been performin’ as well as I wanna be and basically as well as y’al know how I can be. I mean last year I was the rookie of the year and look what happened this year. I ain’t gonna blame it on my neck injury ‘cause well it really ain’t an excuse ya’ feel me? But now I’m getting’ another shot at returnin’ to what I used to be last year. Yeah that’s right, I was selected as one of the four competitors from the Takedown roster to wrestle in the Only the Strong tournament. Now I’mma tell ya’ that this is gonna be a great tournament ‘cause of the people that are in it this year. They made real good choices this year for the tournament and I have to say that I am honored to be a part of this tournament. But now let’s break down the opponents.
Romeo rubs his chin for a moment before continuing.
First up we got Toa. I really don’t know what to say ‘bout this guy. All I know that is that he can do damage and I gotta look out for that. But yeah like I said before, I don’t know too much ‘bout that man so I really don’t know what to say ‘bout him. Next up we got Johnny Aces. I remember toward the beginning of last season I teamed up with him last year a couple times to take down Primo and his group. I know that he is a great competitor and I know that he will be some tough competition in the ring. Next on the list is Evan Fate. This guy is insane in the ring I gotta tell ya.’ He will put his body on the line to get what he needs to done. This is the type of guy that I would like to get in the ring wit’ ‘cause of the heart that he puts into his matches. Like previously said, there are a lot of good competitors in this tournament. Last up from the Overload side is the man Ethan Bain. Do I really need to say more than just the name? We got a former world champion in this tournament. This man is a beast in the ring and makes this tournament look that much better. Now to talk ‘bout the Takedown side of things. Sean Trueth is first up. I think I have only seen him perform in one match this year. He may have been in more but I don’t remember. I know that he did win that match and looked good. So another person that could give some tough competition. Next on the list is King. Oh boy y’all know how I feel ‘bout him. Now we got a lil’ history goin.’ I beat him last year when I defended the Pure title against him but he came back this year to beat me twice in a row. Damn, I still got that sour taste in my mouth that I need to get rid of. It’s cool though, I know that he is a great wrestler. Lastly ya’ got my best bud MG. Ha ha, this guy and I hate each other. At the end of last season he and his lil’ gang jumped me after the awards show and re-injured my wrist. I was real pissed at that point. But y’all know that I came back for revenge and beat him a couple times with one of the matches bein’ me defendin’ the Pure title. But hey if I get thrown into a match wit’ him then I’m gonna do what I did to him earlier this year and that’s beat his ass. So now y’all know that this is gonna be great and I know that y’all won’t be disappointed. I know I won’t disappoint anyone. Look for me to start getting’ back to how I was last season. Oh boy, I can’t wait for this tournament to get started.
After his last few words, Romeo steps back into his locker room being pumped up and ready for the match. He shuts the door as the camera fades to black.
