Following whatever it was that we’re following, we’re greeted to an illustrious view of the backstage area. Casually strolling down the hallway is EBR and his crew, his bag slung over his shoulder and still in street clothes. Fashionably late, wut wut.
[/color] KC Krystal:[/color] What else could I do? ... That bitch had to die.
As they make a right the camera pans out, allowing us to view DGX and his making of coffee. He takes it with two sugars. He’s that kind of guy. DGX spots the group, chuckling.[/color]
DGX:[/color] Aha ... if it isn’t the guy who wants my title.
There’s a prolonged silence which grows increasingly awkward until EBR breaks it.[/color]
EBR:[/color] ... Was that just a general statement or did you actually want to have a conversation?
DGX:[/color] I don’t know, but judging from last week you have some things you want to say to me.
EBR:[/color] Nah it sounds like you got the jist of it, actually.
Matt Steel:[/color] Hey E, is this guy bothering you?
DGX:[/color] Yes E, am I bothering you? :slaugh:
Super Dragon IV swats the coffee out of DGX’s hand.[/color]
DGX:[/color] …I just got that the way I liked it …
EBR:[/color] Nah its fine ... I’ll just catch up with you guys later.
He nods at his entourage who attempt to proceed forward, only to be halted as DGX extends his hand to KC.[/color]
DGX:[/color] ‘Sup, home boy?
Looking at the extended limb, KC slowly looks back at E.[/color]
EBR:[/color] As a white person, I apologize.
Krystal nods back at EBR as he, Luther Castle, Matt Steel, and Super Dragon IV leave the screen. DGX returns his attention to the table, making himself a new cup of coffee while only sparingly looking up at EBR.[/color]
DGX:[/color] So you think you’re going to win this Grand Prix do you?
EBR:[/color] Was planning on that … yeah, yeah …
DGX:[/color] As I said, I saw your little message for me last week …
EBR:[/color] That’s coo’, seeing as how it was directed towards you and all that.
DGX:[/color] “Your” title … really, E?
EBR:[/color] If I ever lost the Heavyweight Championship I must have missed it.
DGX:[/color] A failed drug test and subsequent suspension counts as losing.
EBR:[/color] For practical purposes, apparently … and I don’t forget that you were the one who suspended me for it.
DGX:[/color] Rules are rules.
EBR:[/color] Narc.
DGX:[/color] I did what I had to do.
EBR:[/color] Yes, get me suspended so you’d have a better chance to eventually win the Heavyweight title … narc.
DGX:[/color] That was like seven years ago, the XWA shut down, and you only just returned a couple of months ago. I don’t even see how that’s a legitimate argument to denigrate my Heavyweight Championship.
EBR:[/color] Well I always just assumed I never would have lost the belt and thus the XWA never would have been shut down in the first place. I mean who was the last champ the first time? Calvin? Yeah I think my case holds water. But in all seriousness … change your name to Ray Liotta.
DGX:[/color] …?
EBR:[/color] He was in that movie … “Narc”.
DGX:[/color] You mean “Goodfellas”?
EBR:[/color] Ray Liotta has been in other movies, bro. It was called “Narc”.
DGX:[/color] Any good?
EBR:[/color] It’s a’ight … but yeah the past is the past. I get that, and I don’t even have any real hard feelings about it. I’m just making up for lost time and opportunities at this point. If we happen to meet along the way then it’s just the way it goes, I s’pose.
DGX:[/color] Indeed it is, but truthfully E? I’d hold off on mentioning my name until the time comes. Don’t want to blow it and look like a fool for talking sh*t, do you?
EBR:[/color] Yeah cause I have such a history of doing that …
DGX:[/color] Literally thirty seconds removed from talking about the time you won the Heavyweight Title and failed a drug test a week later.
EBR:[/color] … Well played, D … well played …
DGX:[/color] If I were you I’d be a bit more concerned with what’s going on right now as opposed to me and what? Partying?
EBR:[/color] Other way around, in all fairness.
DGX:[/color] And understand the situation you put me in. For the sake of reputation now the onus is on me to respond to some guy calling me out when there’s still the real possibility I’ll never end up having to face him. It’d just be a big waste of time, and honestly E? I’m a busy guy.
EBR:[/color] How are you busy? You’re just waiting until this tournament is over.
DGX:[/color] Excuse me, I have a Tag Team Title defense coming up next week.
EBR:[/color] You guys don’t come out to “Champions” do you?
DGX:[/color] Nah I wouldn’t play you like that. I also have a match with Kendo Kid, which if you watch, you might just learn a thing or two.
EBR:[/color] First off I already beat Kendo Kid so there’s that. Secondly, you’re way too naïve if you think I’m gonna watch that.
DGX chuckles.[/color]
DGX:[/color] Indeed. You’ll probably be too busy preparing for your match. Derrick Jedi is a talented guy. I know him back from the PRW. But I’m sure you already know that … already did your extensive research on him … studied his every move … probably aren’t just coming from a strip club an hour before …
EBR:[/color] So what? You’re on “Team Jedi” now? I figure that’s a departure from your “Team Edward” thing.
DGX:[/color] …?
EBR:[/color] That’s a … that’s a “Twilight” thing …
DGX:[/color] Right because I used to be -
EBR:[/color] Because you used to be a vampire … yeah … seriously these references make sense, I’m sure of it.
DGX:[/color] Good luck tonight, E. And I’m being serious. I’d love for you to go on to win the entire tournament. I haven’t had the chance to beat you in the XWA, and at this point, it’d just be another opportunity to cement my legacy as the greatest wrestler in the history of the XWA. But until then? Don’t call me when you’re in my town. Call me when you’re on my block.
DGX attempts to walk away with his coffee, only to be stopped as EBR calls back.[/color]
EBR:[/color] Good luck to you too, man.
Turning around with a smirk on his face, DGX walks back.[/color]
DGX:[/color] Thanks, but with all due respect to Kendo Kid I don’t think I need it.
EBR:[/color] I wasn’t talking about this week.
Simplistically EBR walks past DGX, towards his locker room and soon out of our view. DGX looks on temporarily, taking a sip of his coffee before walking in the opposite direction.[/color][/center]
