"Guess Who's Back!" (o2a)

[Μyster Controversy™]

After his dramatic entrance to the arena. Hearing a mass amount of cheer's & boo's from the crowd. Obviously, they didn't know how to react to the man called Genesis. After all, he is a bit of an enigma. You never know what side he's on, or whom he'll go after. Face or Heel. Friend or Foe. Fans or Authority Figures. NO ONE is safe!

It didn't take long for Genesis to grab a microphone. After removing his sunglasses. As he stared out at the crowd for one moment or two. He soaked in the atmosphere. An environment he hasn't stepped foot in about five months. Though this place has undergone quite a change. The drive. The heartbeat. The pulse of the organization is still running wild all over professional wrestling

And with that said. Gen. began to speak. Thinking, he might as well start out with the obvious:



So... how do you guys like the new hair do?

Afterwards. He was littered with a chorus of cheer's & some scattered boo's. Throughout his career. Genesis has dawned long, flowing locks of hair. Whether it was 'dyed' black or going with his natural dark-ish blonde color. The new short hairstyle caught some people off guard. You either gonna hate it or love it. Nonetheless, it was his new look. Better get used to it.

I see... well nonetheless. I'm not here to talk about my new haircut. But it does signify something that this company has felt in the last several months. That is a change. A change in atmosphere. A change in structure. A change felt around the globe from head to toe. Therefore, after six years of rockin' the long hairstyle. I felt it was time to cut it off & go in a more mature looking appearance. All in all. Sometimes, change is for the better. Change is a way of evolving. Change, is done for the good of all mankind.

Certainly, here in 2011. There will be another 'change' around here. Cause you see. I'll be the first man to admit. After 2008 was over. I haven't been the same man. I mellowed out. My rebellious nature turned into that of a motivational speaker. I went from being a man whom was selfish & wanted everything for himself. To a man who wanted to help evolve this business. In spite of all this. Where did that all leave Genesis?

Take a look back at 2009 & 2010, if you will. I went from being on top of the food chain to being a shell of my former self. I went from playing with 'Dynamite'. To dealing with 'Epic' failures. To dancing in the 'Devil's Playground'. Among other things that I'm not necessarily thrilled about. All for the sake of what? What benefit did it have on Genesis folks!?

I'll tell you what it did... NOTHING!

So from this day forward. As far as I'm concerned. I'll stand by you, if you stand by me. If you cross me. Prepare to be double crossed. More importantly then all that. If you piss me off. I will be your worst F***ing nightmare!

This generates scattered cheer's & boo's. Fan's didn't know how to go with this. Should they boo the guy, or stand behind him?
What was he getting at here?

Confused? Aren't we all confused, ha-ha. You see. Its as simple as it gets. In 2011. Genesis is going back 'to the basics'. Frankly, its time to find out who I am, & what I'm all about. The more I mellowed out. I saw my reflection change. They say that nothing ever stays the same. To that, I say its all true. I went from being the most despised, hated human being on the planet. A man that was constantly accused of shooting from the hip. A guy who didn't give a flying f*** about anybody. All of this... then, turning into the very thing I once hated the most. One of the 'boys'.

Needless to say. Those 'days' are over. In the last three year's. I've given my heart. I've given my blood. I've given my sweat & yes folks. I've given my tears to the XWA.

Bottom line? That's just not good enough. I need...

Before Genesis could go on, and say another word. He was cut-off by someone else...

[Tha Nightmare 187]

Out in the Streets...
They Call It Murder...

Consider the fans' dilemma about whether to cheer or boo to be solved. All eyes hit the stage as the TRUE King of Controversy's theme hit the PA system. Instant reaction. Cheers flood the arena when Tha Infamous One steps out from behind the curtain with a microphone in his hand. Adrian might be booked up for the night to go and hang out with that jackass John Smith. But his dark shadow? Well, he wasn't going to sit back and twiddle his thumbs in boredom. He was going to find him something fun and exciting to do. And what better way than to make sure the fans got the most bang for their buck? His eyes were fixated on Genesis in the ring as he slowly stepped down the ramp. That twisted and sick grin of his stretched across his face. The look of a mad man. Oh yeah. This should be tons of fun. The dark shadow almost felt like bursting into laughter, but he refrained from doing so. He headed down the ramp, up the steel steps, and onto the ring apron. Then he climbed into the ring through the ropes and stopped a few feet away from Genesis. He paused there in the ring and looked the man in the eyes. Yup. This was a guy he was familiar with. Rather... Adrian was familiar with him during those dormant days in the recesses of the mind. He knew Genesis. Alright? Got it? He lifted his free hand up and motioned across his neck to have his music turned off. Which they did when after a brief moment, leaving the two men in the ring with the song of the cheering crowd. He stood there, silent. Soaking in the positive feedback from his fans while he stood there. Staring at Genesis. Sick, twisted grin still stuck on his face. Then the dark shadow slowly raised the microphone up and spoke...

"Blaaah... Blaaah... Blaaah... Gah! Are you trying to bore the crowd to tears?"

...said the deeper voice of the dark shadow. Almost like what you'd expect to hear when a person could potentially be possessed by some demonic force. Someone call an exorcist. He began to shake his head momentarily, before lifting the microphone up to continue...

"Oh! Oh! Pick me! Pick me! I know the answer! I got the answer! Let me guess... You're going to go back and be bad? Like we didn't see that coming... Ugh... Listening to you... I'm going to need a prescription for this dreadful headache I get every time you speak. One [bleep]in' bullet to the brain, please. End the pain. Do you even listen to yourself talk? I mean... I can't be the only one here who feels like blowing his brains out every time you raise your microphone. We get it. We get it. You've been gone. You've done some changes. Didn't like it. And now you're returning back to what you're more comfortable. You don't have to subject us to this torture just to get your point across. Just [bleep]in' spit it out already!"

Cue the cheers from the crowds again after hearing Tha Infamous One speak his mind about what Genesis has been going on about. He didn't know what Adrian's opinion about this bastard was, but he certainly hated hearing long, drawn out boring speeches that could be summed up in one or two sentences. He took a deep breath and exhaled a heavy sigh. Then he continued...

"Oh. Yeah. Right. Why I'm out here and interrupting your little 'welcome back' speech. Yeaaah. Heard you were talking about who you'd like to face in the ring again... And because my little punching bag Dragon Boy took it upon himself to avoid an one on one match just between me and him... Further involving John Smith in matters that don't concern him... I've found myself without a playmate for tonight. Which... Yeah. I know. Sad, right? What kind of show would this be if Ms. Blackheart deprived these good people of a good show? And a little birdy told me that you wanted to tango with little ol' me again... So... Why not... For one night only... Give these people what they came here for... And have a battle between Kings. Yes?"

He lowered the microphone. Making the reason why he's out here finally known. Adrian's going to be so fucking surprised what he's getting him into tonight. Fuck it. He can check the replays on the Xtraordinary Wrestling Association's website later on. He stood there, pausing. Waiting for what Genesis' response to him was.

[Μyster Controversy™]

As Genesis took the time to absorb every word spoken with feverish fluidity by Adrian. A part of him wanted to lay the guy out right then & there. Then again, perhaps he could have a little fun with Adrian. This was the first time in a long time these men have locked eyes on each other.

You wanna blow your brains out, huh? You really wanna do that! Is this what you think of me? Every time I open my mouth. You want to take your own life??

... Then by all means, Adrian. Do it! Take your own life if you must. Let the public blame me for there hero's misfortunes. Let them hate me with a f'n passion. Let all those adoring fans that look up to you blame Genesis for causing your death once again. Or is your little pea brain too fucked up to remember that, huh?

Yes... Adrian. You remember Chicago don't you? Think hard. Think deep! One of, if not the last match you ever had there was against me. Upon the world seeing me beat your brains out, no pun intended. You later had your brains 'blown out'. Whether it was homicide, suicide, I don't give a damn. Bottom line, you were gone & out of my sight!

Gen. then started to pace around the ring a bit. Certainly, to Adrian's credit. He did manage to hit a few nerves with Gen's psyche, but was he the type of individual to admit to this? Heck no! After all, one of the key rules in battle is to never show weakness. Never show the enemy that you're a wounded animal. Despite all this. Adrian wasn't the 'real threat' here.

Which brings me to the here & now. Before you start running your mouth. You better understand one thing. This isn't about 'good' & 'evil'. It isn't about doing the right thing by the people, or being the "bad guy" again. Its about principle.

When you serve three years with a company. When you come off one of the biggest years of your career. Then, afterwords. No matter how hard you try. No matter what you do. You watch others around you ascend to places that you know damn good & well you deserve to be at. That was me in 2009 & 2010, Adrian.

I swallowed my pride. Kept my chin up. Fought the good fight. Put over stars. Made stars. All at the sacrifice of my own well being. I put my body on the line. Heck, I blew my god damn knee out & have a permanently injured back. All for what? For the likes of you!?

The fan's at this point started to see the clear picture here. Gen. was showing signs of his old self. Confirming everything Adrian had said. But was there something more to it then just going back to old habits? Wasn't all this bitterness building up inside of him going to be used for a greater cause later??

Look! If you want to fight me? Fine. I'm all for it. Have Ms. Blackheart book it & we'll tear down the roof. King vs King? I doubt that. I'm no King, nor are you. We're pawns. Pawns in 'his' game of chess.

I'm doing this not because I feel like smacking you around & stomping you into the ground. I'm fighting you because I have no choice. You brought this onto yourself, Adrian. However, there is a 'bigger picture' to all this. While we're both fighting. You & I are wasting each other's energy. Ignoring the real evil that is growing around this company.

"Bigger Picture?", "Real Evil?" What is Genesis talking about? Has he lost his mind? Or, does he sense something brewing that could lead to a takeover, or destruction of this company?

[Tha Nightmare 187]

"Yeah, yeah. The anti-Christ is here. We are in the end times. The apocalypse is coming. The Illuminati controls the world. I'm aware of the buzz that runs rampant in the world about the evils and all that jazz."

...The dark shadow quickly dismisses the crap Genesis starts going on about while he's still talking. He looked down at his wrist. There was no watch there. But he pretended like there was a watch there. Listening to what Genesis had to say. He began to tap one of his feet. Then he began to nod his head and used his free hand to wave in the air. He threw his head back and let out a looong exaggerated yawn. Once Genesis had finished speaking, it was time for the dark shadow to take center stage. His opponent must be confused or something to think that he was still the sane man that was back in Chicago. Or that he was actually speaking to Adrian. Ugh... These are the kind of stains and mistakes in history that Adrian has left for him to clean up. Just fucking great. The dark shadow lifted the microphone up once again to respond to Genesis...

"Yeah, yeah, yeah. We're all aware about what happened in Chicago. You don't need to remind me. I find it funny you seem to think you had anything to do with that whole fiasco. I mean... Seriously? You really think that? You let yourself do these mental gymnastics and actually believe you had anything to do with that whole situation? Are you high? What I think you seem to forget here... Is that people really don't care anymore. We've heard the same old song and dance before. People just aren't that interested in you anymore. Fans don't care. Suits don't care. Other competitors don't care. I don't care. If you were to roll over and say you were retiring permanently... You know what would happen? Nothing. Nothing at all. There would be no void that couldn't be filled when you were gone. It would just be. It's a bitter pill to swallow, huh? Knowing how little people care about poor, poor Genesis. It's a shame."

He paused for a moment. Taking a second to shake his head. Did he care? Hell no. Did Adrian care? Well, he didn't fucking know. You ask the man when he wakes up later. He just hated egotistical jackasses who think the world revolves around them. It's the kind of thing he'd give Colombian Neckties to people for. He raised the microphone to continue...

"As for what happened in Chicago? Well, that's neither here nor there. Doesn't really matter now, does it? I'm here. In the living flesh. Still shocking to some people. You're here. Same old, same old. Putting people to sleep. But let's get one thing straight... I hate whiners. I hate it when people just [bleep], and whine, and moan, and complain. Oh, woe is me. Things aren't super awesomely spectacular like I had always planned it to be... BIG WHOOP!"

He threw his free hand up in the air. Emphasizing the 'BIG WHOOP.' If there was one thing he hated more than egotistical jackasses who thought the world revolved around them, it would be whiners. Fucking cry babies. He hated it when Adrian wallowed in his own self pity over bullshit that happened in the past and present. He hated it when anyone else did it too. Bitches needed to quit crying. He continued on once again...

"Just shut the Hell up already. Geez. You sound like every other jackass who realized people don't like them no matter how hard they try. And, oh wait, you mean if you don't head for the top of the mountain... Others will? Yeah. We knew that already. Don't complain when you stopped trying and others started getting ahead of you. It happens. It's what we do in this business. You don't try to climb the ladder, you fall below others who do try. And don't go blaming me because you decided to take a backseat... I've actually been in the game longer than you. I've been made like my last name since I came into this game. Don't get it twisted, Genesis. I didn't ask you to take backseat because you went out and got your ass hurt. And, oh yeah, I wasn't the one who thought this would be an interesting little rematch. That was you. You Genesis. You mentioned this. I'm just giving a sorry sad sack like you what he asked for. I'm doing you a favor."

[Μyster Controversy™]

So this is the part where we start slinging mud at each other back & forth until one of us decides to call it an evening, right? Not happening, bro. If that were the case. You & I would be out here all night long thinking of ways to insult the other person. I'm not about to do any of that, or to even give you the luxury.

That is why I'm calling a spade a spade, pal. You're right. If I were to retire tomorrow. Likely case scenario. None of your kind would care. To you, and your generation of wrestlers. I'm just "another brick in the wall." Yet, you people wonder why the business is in the shape that its in right now. Easy, look in the mirror & you'll find your answer.

Me? I've played on both teams. I've helped the wrestling business grow & prosper. Yet, I've also gained alot from it and took everything away from the business. You on the other hand. You're greedy. Willing to always take, take & take. Never to give, give & give back.

I'm giving you the chance to help this company out of a grave situation before its too late. Instead? You prove my point. You're nothing more then an ego who cares for only me, myself & I.

You can joke around all you want to. But the joke will be on you & everyone else who doesn't listen to me. The blood will be on all of your hands. When that occurs? I'm not even going to bother saying: "I told you so!" By then, I could care less. As I'll be one of, if not the first casualty of war.

When his army grows. Not even I can stop him alone. Not even you, Adrian or anyone else who dare challenges him.

Funny thing is? I haven't met the guy yet. But I've seen him out & about. He's all smoke & mirrors. Blinding all those who can't see the true underbelly of the beast. Corrupting all those who are willing to give him an ear.

Tonight isn't about 'us'. This isn't about two, well known commodities fighting each other to see who has the biggest ego. This is a test. Our test! Question is: Who will pass?

Afterwards, Gen. takes a few steps back from Adrian & lowers the microphone. For what its worth. Genesis does seem sincere about his plea. Then again, can you really trust him? Is he really telling the truth, or is he working another angle here?

You decide folks.

[Tha Nightmare 187]

He stood there with an eyebrow arched as he looked at Genesis. More talking out of his ass about someone he knew nothing about. A lot of talk of greed and selfishness... What would Adrian say in this situation? They've been down this long and winding road, but he had to make this convincing. Come out, insult, act angry, and pander to the crowd were all checked on the list of Adrian's typical behavior. The dark shadow decided to flip through the files of Tha Infamous One's memory bank to figure out how he would respond next. Once Genesis finally decided to shut his trap, he began to raise his microphone and said...

"Very interesting. Very, very interesting. We've had... What? One? Two actual encounters in the ring? And apparently you know sooo much about me that you could write an entire biography on my professional career and how much of a greedy and selfish prick I've been over the years... Considering... I spent a good part of my first year year giving pep talks to anyone in the back who felt like giving up after a hard loss. Let's not forget how many people I've helped put on the map by putting on some of the most epic matches ever witnessed by a crowd. I'm not saying I made anyone a star... But I certainly won't deny what I've done and who I've face in the ring hasn't helped everyone involved. I'm not the kind of jackass who assumes that my mere presence is the kind of thing that simply just makes Johnny NoName someone worth mentioning now. But you know what? I'm just going to let you make your outrageous assumptions about me because apparently you know so much about me. I'll just be here filtering the truth from the bull[bleep]."

He shrugged his shoulders. It was true. What Adrian's memory told him was that there certainly hasn't been enough interaction between the two to have really made any of Genesis' statements about Tha Infamous One to hold any merit. Sure. There was an ego there. Everyone has an ego. Some bigger than others. But selfish and greedy? If he was selfish and greedy, there would have been many more title reigns in the 'Accomplishments' folder. The dark shadow cracked a smirk and continued...

"Anyways... You've got my attention. You caught my interest. You keep mentioning some big evil who supposedly has some kind of power that has you shaking in your boots. And, of course, you make it all about you by acting like some Goddamn martyr by saying you're going to sacrifice yourself for everyone. So, yeah. [bleep] it. I'll bite. Who's got Genesis scared? You haven't met him, but you seem to have all these answers here. You know he's building some kind of army, which knocks Dragon Boy off the list. Who is it? Ya got to have a name or something because you wouldn't constantly keep mentioning this crap if it wasn't so important. Spill the beans or just shut the Hell up about it already."

He stood there, awaiting an answer from all this cryptic crap that Genesis has been going on about. If there was any truth to what was being said, he may have to keep an eye out for all this junk. First Katana is taking orders from some man behind the curtain. Smith is trying to throw his money and influence around to build up his strength. And now here's another mystery man who's got Genesis all frazzled. What happened to the good ol' days where it was everyone for themselves and no one had to rely on a whole group to get things done? Fucking dependant bastards.

[Μyster Controversy™]

Well my friend, its simple. No one has me 'shaking in my boots'. But, like you. He has grabbed my attention. I look at him, & his growing army of followers as a threat. A threat that you, I and everyone else whom is playing his game should know.

You'd love for me to spill the beans. But I'm not... my research is confidential, Adrian. I do my homework. Fact is, I don't know 'everything' about you. But I know enough to see past the darkness.

Gen. walked over slowly to Adrian once more. Just enough to where the camera could get a clear shot of both men boring a hole through each other with there eyes. You can feel the intensity in the air. The tension was mounting. So thick, you could cut it with a knife, as they say...

We'll continue this discussion another day. Perhaps in private when we don't have an audience. Lets just say that he is probably watching us now. Loving the fact that we're ripping into each other. Is it apart of his game plan? I don't know. I don't have the answers to this. Just remember one thing, Adrian? Keep an eye out for the unexpected. Don't trust anybody. You don't know when, or where they will strike. Could be you, could be me. It could be anyone.

But as long as we stand here amongst the fans representing the X.W.A. Its best that we live up to the company's code & defend it if the darkside should ever reveals its ugly face. You have quite the following, Adrian. Me? My saving grace is my loyalty to this company for the last three years & my hard work ethic. Combined? We would be unstoppable. On opposite sides. I could kill you within' an inch of your life. What you must be thinking is: Which side am I on? Yours? His? The Organization's?

Until then... I'll see you later tonight 'friend'. hahaha!

Gen. said with a light chuckle at the end, and a sinister grimace across his face. As he drops the microphone & takes his leave from the ringside area.

You could say that perhaps Genesis is a bit paranoid. Maybe he really does know something. Could it be all an act? Or, could he be telling the truth & is willing to only release so much information. It was clear that right now. No one can make heads or tails of what he is hinting about.

The cryptic tone of his messages does have everyone interested. Just when you think you know the answers. He changes the questions. The real question is: Who is the 'he'?

Genesis? or someone else?

END? (unless you wanna wrap things up, 187 lol. Leaving it up to you bro)

[Tha Nightmare 187]

"Who the fuck is 'he'...?"

...The dark shadow said under his breath, where no one else could hear him. His microphone was resting at his side. The dark shadow just kept his eyes focused on Genesis while he was making his exit. Originally, he was just going to dismiss this as just more bullshit that everyone seemed to be on recently. But apparently, this was supposed to be something big. Was he scared? Fuck no. Was he intrigued? Sure. A little. He was always looking for a challenge. And if there was someone out there who was looking to crush everyone in this company... He just couldn't let that slide. Afterall, he was apart of that 'everyone' who Genesis claims is being monitored. He was a little interested in who this bastard was. Genesis wasn't saying anything about it. Perhaps, he'll have to keep an eye out and his ears open for any strange happenings in this company. And just when he thought things couldn't get any worse in New York.

Either way... Genesis vs. Murda Tha Infamous 187 was going to be happening later tonight. He was going to have to get Adrian's body prepared for the upcoming battle ahead. For now? Let's cue the commercial breaks with him standing in the middle of the ring with his eyes fixated on Genesis.

End
