It’s dark…pitch black dark, like almost to the point you wanna give your TV, tablet, phone…whatever a nice lil LoVe TaP. But before you break your favorite streaming device like a RE RE and then try and blame it on us later, suddenly we hear the sound of the top of a zippo lighter make that sexy klinkity-clack sound when one throws it open. We hear a thumb slide against the lighter three times before we see the first sign of illumination as a flame shoots high piercing the seeming endless veil of the darkness.
We then see the faint silhouette lingering in the shadows. The light hides everything above his lips that have a cigarette hanging from it. The lighter moves and the flame gently dances across the tip of the cigarette, as we see the lip of the figure we are watching curving into a smile as we then hear audio from various forms of media all over the pro wrestling world after the news broke a little less than a day ago that something big was fixing to happen. So now we hear the voices of Reporters, Radio Hosts, YOUTUBERS, BLOGGERS, Tik-Tok and Instagram fans giving their two cents as everyone speculates about the speculation of the big announcement that is going to impact the entire wrestling world and everything in it.
Hear listen…Wait?...What do you mean, why should you? Well aside from the fact that this faceless narrator is practically demanding you do it, but if you are a fan, enthusiast, or observer of professional wrestling then this is one of the most important things that has happened in quite some time.
…Or ya know don’t and keep watching whatever

(A montage of interviews from various media outlets throughout the world, that are being cycled through one at a time)
YOUTUBE PODCASTER: So I don’t know if you guys heard the news, but apparently LA Johnny Stylez the former owner of Outlaw Pro Wrestling…
Ryan Seacrest(ON AIR w Ryan Seacrest): You know the guy that owns 69 percent of one of the largest pornagraphic distributors on the planet?...Yeah Johnny Stylez, well apparently news surfaced on the net a few hours ago that in a few days he is going to be holding a press conference…
TWITCH WRESTLING NERD/STREAMER: In CHICAGO, Illinois of ALL PLACES! Please tell me you all know what the hell this means!?! For those of you that remember there was this little place called NEW EDGE WRESTLING that Johnny Stylez came from that was run by his estranged cousin Jesse Styles until Jesse sold Johnny the rights to New Edge Empire after Jesse decided to step down as a promoter and owner of NEW.
Colin Cowherd (FOX Sports): Then as we all know Johnny went on from there and opened his renegade world wide phenomenon promotion known as Outlaw Pro Wrestling…And let me just tell you if you people out there think I’m an asshole then clearly you have never spent any time around either of the Cousins Stylez! SO apparently Jesse wanted to go back to earning his living as a competitor and Jesse was a member of the OPW roster for a little while, until the two allegedly bumped heads several times backstage during the early goings in OPW…
Stephen A Smith(ESPN): So then we all know what happened next right? They say best friends make the worst enemies and if the reports I heard coming out of that place around that time were to be believed then it got ugly PEOPLE…Bowling shoe ugly, and then the two went their separate ways. Johnny retained ownership of New Edge and Jesse went home and hasn’t really been heard from since. Johnny on the other hand saw success with OPW turning it into a powerhouse until this dude got arrested at the end of his own pay per view and sat in jail for year awaiting trial for charges that were ultimately dropped due to the falsification of facts and documents by the arresting officer. SO Johnny gets out of jail and apparently walked away with a handsome settlement from the state of New York wrongful imprisonment and was also awarded the rights to OPW and NEW back after his “friends” or “business associates” took OPW renamed it and enjoyed a successful run of their own. Johnny tried reopening OPW two years ago, but it fell apart for reasons that are still unknown.
Chester( Former TEW Tag Team Champ & Popular Podcaster): So now fast forward to where we are today ladies and gentlemen and given the few facts we have one would only conclude that Johnny is going to be in Chicago tomorrow afternoon to announce “something big” Well nothin is bigger than me baby, but if it is what I think it is then yeah it will be pretty damn big…even from my standards! But one question that I’m noticing a lot of you askin in the comments is Johnny Stylez going to announce the return of OPW or NEW?...And if it is OPW why in the hell would he go all the way to Chi-Town to do it?
YOUTUBE PODCASTER: Which brings up even more questions…Chief among them, so since it is in Chicago does that mean NEW is coming back? And if so, is “THE HYPE” gunna come out of hiding and be apart of this? And if so someone please explain to me HOW IN THE HELL THAT IS EVEN GOING TO WORK? We’ve all heard the wild stories about what happened when Johnny and Jesse fell out years ago, as people on both sides said they would be shocked if the two ever said another word to the other. I’m sure there is some audio we could play where we could hear Johnny tell you himself how he felt about his dear cousin…
Joe Rogan(Podcaster UFC Announcer): And well we had Jesse on the show a little over two years ago, and I don’t recall him saying very many flattering things about his cousin…As a matter of fact if I’m not mistaken our show wasn’t the only one Jesse colorfully “shot” on his cousin as they say in the biz. So moral of the story here folks if these two were able to mend fences so to speak they had to have one hell of a construction crew. Because that last one didn’t just affect them it affected the entire pro wrestling watching universe! And really if anyone listening to this think LA Johnny Stylez “The Don of Di$Re$PeCT” as he calls himself would ever reach out and say he is “sorry” HA, well let’s just say you don’t know what you are talking about!
Chester( Former TEW Tag Team Champ & Popular Podcaster): And I’m here to tell yall, if you think Johnny can be an asshole…Who the hell you think grew that man up? Showed him the ropes? Jesse Styles…THE Jesse Styles I know personally is well versed himself in the art of assholery, and also aint one to say he was sorry. Bottom line these two couldn’t admit they were wrong even if they are! So that is why I, along with any and everyone else will have my eyes peeled at that press conference tomorrow because I honestly have no idea what this is all about…
YOUTUBE PODCASTER: But if it is what we all hope it is and tomorrow Johnny and Jesse emerge and announce the relaunch of NEW then we will be seeing the rebirth of one of the greatest wrestling promotions the world has ever known! They started in 2010 and went all the way to 2019…Like any wrestling promotion before or sense they suffered periods of up and down but there was a time when the path to greatness in pro wrestling went straight through NEW. The single promotion toppled an entire territory known as GFED after soundly defeating Total Extreme Wrestling in a ratings war…
TEW eventually folded while NEW scooped up all that were worth scooping, they did it again when they went to FEDWARZ and continued the historied legacy there as the brightest shining wrestling promotion hands down…The biggest names, the biggest matches on the biggest stages SO many memories, iconic moments, outstanding matches, innovative concepts, and not to mention a loyal rabid fan base, as they for better or for worse built one of the longest lasting and strongest legacies in the history of pro wrestling!
And given the bleak outlook of the pro wrestling game today this is one wrestling fan who is anxiously awaiting tomorrow praying to God for the return of the pro wrestling empire known as New Edge Wrestling.
Lisa Ann(Pornstar/Podcaster): Guys enough with the calls already! I posted it on twitter and facebook not to mention I started off the show saying I have no clue what Johnny is up to? Would I like to see him return to the ring, especially in NEW? Sure maybe then he wouldn’t be such an asshole…Cause let me tell ya when he isn’t involved with wrestling the guy can be…Difficult I think is the nicest way I can say it…But hey I love you Johnny! I will be among the many watching this press conference tomorrow, and just know whichever way the ball bounces tomorrow me and the rest of your girls are behind you, or ontop whatever you are into…HA just jokin…I know exactly what he is into, and trust me there isn’t enough time on the show to open that can of worms!
The last image we see is of a former NEW superstar…former NEW Blackout Champion Adrien Specter sitting at the kitchen table in his home, across from him is someone interviewing him, we cant see who it is, but it is irrelevant…What is relevant is the question they asked Adrien Specter.
Interviewer: SO Adrian we assume you have heard the rumors regarding the return of New Edge Wrestling, is there anything you’d like to share on the subject.
Specter (who still looks more or less the same) sits there glaring into the camera with one of the most serious looks on his face we have ever seen as he reaches down to his right side and holds up a sign that says
Specter then extends his middle finger and then throws his hand in front of the camera immediately ending the interview..Suddenly the montage ends and we see the mysterious figure watching all of this on a large television hanging on the wall and the silhouette face of the man we saw at the beginning of all this flashes an arrogant smirk that turns into a chuckle as he continues smoking his cigarette exhaling the smoke through his nostrils while watching the Specter bit Suddenly we see the mysterious figure sitting underneath the TV hanging on the wall. The hand raises a black small ROKU remote and turns the TV off. He takes one final drag of his cigarette and then puts it out on the NO SMOKING sign hanging up on the wall right underneath the TV hanging on the wall.
The figure then stands up and steps into the light and we then see for ourselves…The PaRaGoNa oF AMeRiKaNa, THE DoN oF DI$Re$PeCT HIMSELF, LA Johnny Stylez looking rather dapper in a white suit with black pin striped. He has a large chain going from his back pocket to his front, his blue hair is all slicked back. He walks over to the other side of the dark room and turns the lights on. We see he is in an office room usually held for business meetings as there is the stereotypical long desk in the middle of the room with 8 black leather swivel chairs on each side.
Scattered all over the desk is a punch of paper work that Johnny starts fumbling through obviously looking for something. We see his phone light up and then begin to vibrate as Johnny seems annoyed by this. HE shoots his eyes in its direction to see who is calling and he sees the name of his new assistant that was on the verge of being fired much faster than the other one. Johnny rolls his eyes and grabs his phone and hits the silent button, as he shakes his head and throws his phone back on the table and continues his pursuit of…whatever the phuck he lost?
But before Johnny can make any real headway in solving the case, his phone lights up and starts to vibrate again. This time we can see the fury in Johnny’s eyes as he quickly jerks the phone off the table and answers it.
LA Johnny Stylez: WHAT?...WHATWHATWHATWHAT WHAT IN THE PHUCKING PHUCK DO YOU WANT? Yeah I saw the video thing, it was phuckin great the kids’ll love it! Wait?...They wanna do what now? Remove the Adrien Specter part? Why in the phuck would you do that it was practically the best part or at least the funniest…He had to answer the questions holding up a sign!...Ya know, cause he can’t speak! Because the dumb phuck cut his own tongue out of his head trying to beat me and failed…You know if I have to explain it to you, you are just a…Wait what? They are ready for me?...OK HOLD ON lemme check and see if I have any phucks to give!?!?.....You still there?...K yeah bad news
[/font][/i]
…There is something I have to do first anyway! Ohh and tell the editors that if they edit that promo video Adrien Specter won’t be the only person who has to speak in sign language for the rest of their natural born ya digg? Cool?...COOL! Now best phuck off, cause I gotta get myself together…Meaning if you call me back with anymore insignificant shit I’ll not only fire you, but you’ll be back to giving blowies on the internet…We understand one another?...Good thank you dear…I’ll be out in a few…KBYE…EUREKA!!!
As Johnny hangs up his phone his eye catches what he was searching for. The fat blunt he had rolled for this here special occasion! What’s the special occasion you may ask? Well he’ll tell ya…After he is done lighting this blunt of course.
Johnny holds the blunt in front of him and once again flicks his zippo back and sparks the flame. He lets the fire kiss the edge of it for a few moments before pulling it up and taking a strong steady pull. HE holds it in and walks around the office almost pacing. It is almost as if he is nervous and he is doing everything to get his thoughts together. He makes his way to the head of the table as he collects his papers and clutter all over the table. After neatly stacking some papers into a manilla folder, he takes a hit from his blunt and then places it in the makeshift ashtray he made out of a broken scotch glass. He takes a deep breathe and places both arms on the table. He then looks up directly into the camera and smiles as he begins to speak.
LA Johnny Stylez: Yall mah phuckerz ReaDy? GOOD!
[/font][/i]
Or to put a finer point on it…LET’S GO HOME!!!
Johnny then stands up, straightens his suit and checks himself in the mirror on the back of the closed office door. Johnny then nods at himself and flashes his trademark arrogant smirk as he reaches for the door handle and opens the door. HE walks down the hallway takes a right, then a left and then comes to a hallway with a small crowd of people hanging outside in the hall in front of the room where all this is going to take place. The moment someone looks up and sees The DoN oF Di$Re$PeCT making his way down the hall way suddenly we see cameras flashing and hear the roar of several people asking different questions all at the same time. Johnny puts on his thick rimmed black Ray Ban sunglasses as two armed security guards meet Johnny before he is engulfed by the mob.
They push their way into the room where there is a large black podium in the middle of two long tables. Behind the tables and podium is a large square object hanging up that is covered by a white sheet. In front of the tables are rows of chairs that are in the process of being filled as everyone makes their way into the room after literally waiting 45 minutes after the scheduled start of this thing.
Everyone quickly files in to their seats, as Johnny stands at the podium, as his assistant former OPW color commentator, and current adult film star Mason Moore, is going over the last few particulars as we see Johnny telling her something, as she smiles and then exits the stage. By the time Johnny turns around and faces everyone in the room holding up mics and other recording devices, he pauses briefly as if to for once take how own advice and SOAK SOME OF THIS UP. He flashes a grin as he holds his hands up and officially gets this bad boy underway!
LA Johnny Stylez: First of all I would like to say from the very depths of my heart that every single person in this room is
[/font][/i]
One day you will all be able to look back on this moment and you will be able to tell whoever cares enough to listen to you, that you WERE ACTUALLY THERE, and that is not a privilege some people don’t experience in an entire lifetime, and if you aren’t grateful then
[/font][/i]
But don’t worry ladies and gentlemen because we didn’t call all yall down here to discuss your gratitude as I assure you there will be more than enough time for that in the near and clear future. But before we got any further we are going to do something that is a little out of character for me. Most of you, all know me by a great number of nicknames or monikers. The most popular and enduring is easily THE DoN oF DI$Re$PECT, and there are quite a few people that can personally attest to the fact that is one of the most well earned monikers in pro wrestling history.
But every rule has exceptions, and unfortunately today one of those exceptions will be made. I wish it were under different circumstances, but truth be told if it weren’t for this we may not all be standing here today fixing to change the wrestling world all over again. SO before we get to it we are going to pause briefly and have a moment of silence for a friend of ours that is no longer with us. One of the most beloved characters in the history of NEW PCW and the BCW! He was of course like most members of the NEW roster completely and utterly
[/font][/i]
And really if pro wrestling had 20 more just like him I promise the entire business would be in way better shape than it is now. So please let us bow our heads and pay our respects to the former PCW Television Champion, and one of the funniest light hearted genuinely good people this game of ours has ever known…Right we cause to remember our friend, who is gone but NO FORGOTTEN the one and the mother phucking only
A silence falls over the crowd as Johnny bows his head to remember his friend. Then after a few moments Johnny lifts his head and wipes a small tear from his eye as he reaches in his pocket and pulls out a pack of smokes. He pops one in his mouth and lights it. The people in the audience are taken back at the audacity of this man smoking during a press conference? But Johnny does what he always does…Carries on like he doesn’t notice their stupid smug faces (but he does and on the inside he is laughing at every single one of them)...Johnny takes a drag and then exhales the smoke through his nostrils and continues.
LA Johnny Stylez: And now to the business at hand. You don’t have to be fuggin Sherlock Holmes to figure the out what is going on here exactly. Here we are at the NEW headquarters in Chicago Illinois, and I stand before you here today as living breathing proof of why one of the most common sayings in pro wrestling is to
[/font][/i]
But before we say what we came here to say and make anything official please let me bring out my cousin, the former New Edge Wrestling Heavyweight Champion of the World, and one of the most successful wrestling promoters in the history of the game…Chicago’s own “Hype” Jesse Styles!
Applause…
Jesse Styles emerges from the opposite side of the room Johnny entered from. He makes his way up onto the stage. His expression is all business. He is wearing a black tailormade Armani suit. He has a bottle of water in his hands that he sets down on the table behind him as he shakes Johnny’s hand as we see what appears to be almost a million camera flashes as this was definitely a site to behold. Johnny and Jesse then face the crowd as both smile and take a moment to take it all in. They then look at each other as Johnny nods in his cousins direction and we hear him say the words…GO head YOU TELL EM!!!
Jesse shakes his head and rolls his eyes as he takes his place at the center podium as Johnny takes a step back towards the sheet hanging over the large object behind them.
Jesse Styles: Well incase this isn’t painfully obvious at this point, I guess the only thing that is left is just to come out and say it…So yes ladies and gentlemen the rumors are indeed fact true once again New Edge Wrestling is OFFICIALLY COMING BACK!!!
Everyone in attendance erupts in applause and cheers as Johnny pulls the sheet down to reveal a brand new New Edge Wrestling logo with blue and red colors. Then suddenly all the reporters, bloggers, and everything else in between starts to all ask their questions all at the same time. Jesse holds up his hands as Johnny steps back on stage at the right side of his cousin, Johnny nudges his head in front of Jesse so he is able to speak into the mic.
LA Johnny Stylez: Yes..of course you have questions, and I’d be willing to wager half of them are nowhere near the mark of anything that can be considered intelligent, so let us go ahead and answer most of them off top. For instance, not that it is any of your got damn business but Jesse Styles is indeed the majority owner and operator of New Edge Wrestling!
Jesse Styles: OK, OK Johnny…You did say you were going to let me do this right? Cause I’ve been telling you for years things like this are easier to do when you are not running that mouth of yours…Take 5 CUZ, I got this…
Johnny mouths something probably very rude and offensive to his cousin, which only causes the audience and even Jesse to crack a smile for the first time since he has been up there. Jesse then readjusts the mic and begins to speak.
Jesse Styles: OK, so yeah basically as you all know or heard by now, the wrestling community, us in particular . Were all devastated when we heard the very unfortunate news of LA Kief’s passing…The fans lost one hell of an entertainer, but we here at New Edge, lost not just a roster member, but a friend…NO FAMILY, and it just puts things into perspective. And no matter where I go or what else I try to do, in the back of my head it is always calling to me…And as I look around the sport today I notice some very drastic and unsettling patterns that I recall seeing a long time ago when we all competed on the AOL circuit.
And that is when I went to work for New Edge originally, and then as the history books will gladly tell ya it wasn’t shortly after that when we gained control and put out amazing show after amazing show defeating any and everyone who opposed us until we were the only real game in town. But the game I see today isn’t even a shell of the game when we first started this thing. Wrestling federations on top of federations open and close after one PPV cycle, assuming they even make it that far. Someone has to put a stop to this before the game we love so much begins to vanish.
NEW was once upon a time a beacon of hope in the landscape of pro wrestling, and I truly believe we can do it again, and with the roster that is slowly but surely taking shape I can tell you with absolute confidence that I believe NEW’s best days are in front of us!
Reporter#1: Ohh yeah? Last we all heard you two were at each other’s throats and now you’ve what? Kissed and made up and now everything is fine?...I guess my question is why do this? Why now?
Jesse Styles: Look people I could sit out here and give you some speech about blood being thicker than water, because you are right the last time the both of us were in the public eye we were at each other's throats…to the point where I’m sure one of us would have tried to murder the other had it come to that. But truth be told after we received news of LA Kiefs passing both Johnny and I came to grips with reality.
Despite whatever differences we may have had in the past, one thing we have in common is that this business runs deep in our blood. ANd to be perfectly honest with all of you when AGW closed I thought I was done. I even stopped watching the shit…but even then I still would hear this nagging in the back of my mind, telling me that this is where I belong because once again pro wrestling needs New Edge Wrestling.
Reporter#2 : And what is it you believe exactly that NEW can provide or contribute to the current landscape of pro wrestling?
Jesse Styles: I can see it all on your faces that you doubt us…Which is mind boggling to me considering how many times we have proven each and every one of you wrong time and time again. Let me just go ahead and point out that we are very much aware that the game has changed a good bit since NEW was at its strongest, and we know we are going to have to change right along with it. We aren’t coming back to relive the glory days…We are here to build BRAND FUCKING NEW ONES! Because here at NEW we have always done pro wrestling just like the rest of em…Only we’ve always done it better!
We know how to put our talent in the position to be the best versions of themselves. Our CHAMPIONSHIPS truly define what it means to be a champion in this business because each of them have been bleed for and to hold one of NEW’s illustrious prizes you do have to be a cut above the rest of them. We have a mix of fresh talent and a spectacular collection of some of the vets that have contributed to making New Edge Wrestling the staple it is, was, and God willing always will be.
Reporter #3: And what about you Johnny???…You are being uncharacteristically quiet, why aren’t we at an OPW relaunch party…You owned it all, and sorry but I don’t believe I’m the only one here who thinks you did this for family or any other reason that isn’t a selfish one!
LA Johnny Stylez: OPW had it’s time in the sun…But as we have stated several times already the current state of the business needs something bigger…It needs something stronger. OPW was a successful upstart promotion but I was never able to achieve the degree of success New Edge Wrestling had, and well if you are gunna phuckin do something ya might as well do it right??
[/font][/i]
Because the other announcement I came here to make today is that I am once again returning to active competition FULL TIME starting at New Edge Wrestling’s first show that is now just a few weeks away! So yeah maybe I had my own selfish reasons, but that doesn’t change the fact that people very badly need to be reminded or straight up
[/font][/i]
You see these promotions filled with these recycled and rerun gimmicks, capping their talent keeping them from being what they actually are or could be. It’s a joke a very bad joke, and I intend to see to it personally that New Edge Wrestling returns to its place atop this industry as the promotion where GREATNESS IS EARNED AND REDEFINED EVERY PHUCKING NIGHT!!! Because if you look at what history has taught us…THat when myself and this man standing up here next to me are on the same page there are no limits we cannot achieve. If you look up and down at the history of New Edge Wrestling, it’s most prosperous and historic moments came when Jesse and I were on the same page and understood what it took to make NEW what we had always intended it to be!
Jesse Styles: Cause look people do I trust Johnny?...FUCK NO…Only a got damn fool would trust LA Johnny Stylez, but one thing I have learned to be able to count on is his ego and own self interest. And despite everything that happened…Everything we said or did to one another out of anger does not even compare to what we know we can accomplish together with this regenesis of New Edge Wrestling! We have both tried to leave this business behind us, but we keep being called back, because we know this is who we are and this is what we FUCKING DO!
Reporter #4: SO you two mentioned there is already a show scheduled…What details if any can you give us about that?
Jesse Styles: The next episode of Ignite that is going to kick off this new era of New Edge Wrestling will feature two matches. THe first will be a rumble match where the winner will receive a special prize and the runner up and third place will also receive something that should largely impact their stance here in the new New Edge . BUt this match is meant to give everyone a taste of things to come in this new era as the match is filled with some of New Edge’s most recognizable stars and some of the freshest faces all looking to carve out their new legacy here in NEW.
ANd then of course in the MAIN EVENT, after much reflection I decided that it was best that we go ahead and crown a champion here on the first night. New Edge is going to need a face moving forward someone that perfectly embodies who and what it means to be the New Edge Wrestling Champion of the World. Someone who knows what it takes to be champion, someone who understands the burdens and challenges that come with it. Someone who knows how to wear our top prize with pride and make it the most sought after prize in our game.
And so I went and got the two greatest champions in New Edge Wrestling history and booked them to face each other one on one one more time to determine who will be the one to lead us into the future…So consider it official one more time for the NEW HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP of the WORLD…LA JOHNNY STYLEZ will go one on one against the last man to wear the NEW crown, his arch rival none other than Roger WRIGHT!!!
THe crowd lets out a huge gasp as Johnny and Jesse look at each other and smirk. Jesse motions off to the side and suddenly one of the new interns brings Jesse a clipboard and a pen. Jesse places it on the table and hands the pen to Johnny. As Johnny leans over and reads it over we see camera flashing all over the room. Jesse then stands back in front of the podium and begins to speak.
Jesse Styles: I got Roger’s signature Johnny…All we need to make it official is for you to sign on the dotted line.
Johnny arrogantly smirks at his cousin as he bends over and signs his name on all the appropriate places making his dream of once again becoming the New Edge Wrestling Heavyweight CHampion of the World A REALITY!
Reporter #4: SO wait Johnny, lemme ask ya…If you win the NEW World TItle for a 6th time will you be able to manage both your responsibilities as Champion as well as owner of the company?
Johnny goes to speak, but Jesse bows his head first and abruptly answers for his cousin.
Jesse Styles: NO! He can’t!
LA Johnny Stylez; Wait…THE PHUCK DID YOU JUST SAY?
Jesse Styles: Sorry Johnny, but you know just as well as I do…You have to choose…You wanna run behind the scenes then fine there is always a spot for you, but as long as you are an active competitor or especially NEW World Champion then you will have no power or say with anything backstage here at NEW. THe integrity of the company and the NEW title is paramount and I can’t have you corrupting it out of the gate. I’m sorry!
LA Johnny Stylez: You’re phucking sorry?...You must be phucking HIGH TOO! Because I had my lawyers go over it over and over again, and my ownership stake in this company is IRON F’N CLAD CUZ! SO I’d love to hear how you propose to keep me from doing things the way I’ve always done them…Which of course is
[/i][/b][/font]
SO let’s just omit all of this from the record and we can pretend like it never happened, and focus on the very bright future of yours truly once again wearing the NEW WORLD TITLE AROUND MY PHUCKIN WAIST!!!
Jesse Styles: You are right Johnny…Your stake in the company is iron clad and pretty much uncontestable…But so is that NEW TITle match contract you just signed…Which clearly states that as long as you are an active competitor you forgo your rights to have a voice in anything that pertains to the day to day operating of New Edge Wrestling!
LA Johnny Stylez: Jesse Styles you sneaky son of a bitch…SO this is how you want to start shit off is it? Well just you wait CUEBALL, because I will be the NEW Champion again…and if you or any of the rest of you gaping jaw phucksocks think I was bad before…Well I can promise you that none of yall
[/i][/b][/font]
Matter of fact…
As Johnny goes to go into “Johnny Mode” suddenly we see the large sea of reporters, bloggers, and members of the press in attendance at this historical press conference, as someone seems to be making his way out of the building. But as people see who it is their eyes light up and immediately all the cameras in the building are off the front of the room where Jesse and Johnny were standing practically nose to nose.
We are unable to see who this figure is until he reaches the large glass doors that lead outside. A gloved hand grabs the handle, but before he opens the door he turns so we are able to see his face. And as the camera quickly cuts back to Jesse and Johnny…Johnny is up on stage practically blowing a gasket as Jesse just looks at the temper tantrum his cousin is throwing and allows a cocky smirk of his own to slowly creep across his face as the camera quickly pans back out and we see the man standing at the exit that caused all of this ruckus was none other than the man Johnny will face in two weeks for the NEW World Heavyweight TItle
…Roger F’N Wright is standing there with his blonde hair hanging in his face. HE glares at Jesse and Johnny almost with pity as he shakes his head and pushes the door open and walks out onto the street eventually disappearing from sight altogether as the camera pans back to Johnny who is so beside himself he has turned one of the tables over and is yelling at any and everything that moves.
The cameras of course are all catching every moment of this on camera as Jesse looks around and sighs a big sigh…Sure it was chaos…But this was his favorite kind…Sure Johnny was more than likely going to damage something that he shouldn’t…But as Jesse watched Roger walk away and out of sight and then Johnny breaking everything not nailed down promising to kill him gave Jesse Styles and anyone who has ever considered themselves a fan of New Edge Wrestling a sense of relief…A sense of home…So Jesse chuckles to himself as he walks back up to the podium leans towards the mic and says…
Jesse Styles: WELCOME HOME EVERYONE!!! WE WILL SEE YALL NOVERMBER 25th!!! Damn it’s fuggin great to be home!
Jesse then backs away and walks off stage leaving Johnny to his own devices, as Jesse makes his way out into the hall. He makes a hard left at the end of the hall and then a right. He stands in front of a large black door with an elaborate glass windows that you are unable to see through. On the top of the door it says
Jesse puts his hand on the knob and takes a deep breathe as he turns the knob and opens the door. We get a brief view of his large office that overlooks the busy city of Chicago. We see his large wooden desk, his elaborate black chair and even his case holding every single NEW Championship ever created inside of them. Jesse takes a step in and looks around. He then turns around and forces the camera to back up as once we find ourselves outside the office, Jesse offers a smile to the camera and a brief wave before he turns and slams the door in all of our faces as he gets down to business and the rest of us are left to anticipate the next chapter in one of the greatest wrestling promotions in the history of the game. IN other words STAY TUNED…WE IZZZ JUSSSSS GETTIN STARTED!!!
We then see the faint silhouette lingering in the shadows. The light hides everything above his lips that have a cigarette hanging from it. The lighter moves and the flame gently dances across the tip of the cigarette, as we see the lip of the figure we are watching curving into a smile as we then hear audio from various forms of media all over the pro wrestling world after the news broke a little less than a day ago that something big was fixing to happen. So now we hear the voices of Reporters, Radio Hosts, YOUTUBERS, BLOGGERS, Tik-Tok and Instagram fans giving their two cents as everyone speculates about the speculation of the big announcement that is going to impact the entire wrestling world and everything in it.
Hear listen…Wait?...What do you mean, why should you? Well aside from the fact that this faceless narrator is practically demanding you do it, but if you are a fan, enthusiast, or observer of professional wrestling then this is one of the most important things that has happened in quite some time.
…Or ya know don’t and keep watching whatever

…still don’t believe us?...Listen!
(A montage of interviews from various media outlets throughout the world, that are being cycled through one at a time)
YOUTUBE PODCASTER: So I don’t know if you guys heard the news, but apparently LA Johnny Stylez the former owner of Outlaw Pro Wrestling…
Ryan Seacrest(ON AIR w Ryan Seacrest): You know the guy that owns 69 percent of one of the largest pornagraphic distributors on the planet?...Yeah Johnny Stylez, well apparently news surfaced on the net a few hours ago that in a few days he is going to be holding a press conference…
TWITCH WRESTLING NERD/STREAMER: In CHICAGO, Illinois of ALL PLACES! Please tell me you all know what the hell this means!?! For those of you that remember there was this little place called NEW EDGE WRESTLING that Johnny Stylez came from that was run by his estranged cousin Jesse Styles until Jesse sold Johnny the rights to New Edge Empire after Jesse decided to step down as a promoter and owner of NEW.
Colin Cowherd (FOX Sports): Then as we all know Johnny went on from there and opened his renegade world wide phenomenon promotion known as Outlaw Pro Wrestling…And let me just tell you if you people out there think I’m an asshole then clearly you have never spent any time around either of the Cousins Stylez! SO apparently Jesse wanted to go back to earning his living as a competitor and Jesse was a member of the OPW roster for a little while, until the two allegedly bumped heads several times backstage during the early goings in OPW…
Stephen A Smith(ESPN): So then we all know what happened next right? They say best friends make the worst enemies and if the reports I heard coming out of that place around that time were to be believed then it got ugly PEOPLE…Bowling shoe ugly, and then the two went their separate ways. Johnny retained ownership of New Edge and Jesse went home and hasn’t really been heard from since. Johnny on the other hand saw success with OPW turning it into a powerhouse until this dude got arrested at the end of his own pay per view and sat in jail for year awaiting trial for charges that were ultimately dropped due to the falsification of facts and documents by the arresting officer. SO Johnny gets out of jail and apparently walked away with a handsome settlement from the state of New York wrongful imprisonment and was also awarded the rights to OPW and NEW back after his “friends” or “business associates” took OPW renamed it and enjoyed a successful run of their own. Johnny tried reopening OPW two years ago, but it fell apart for reasons that are still unknown.
Chester( Former TEW Tag Team Champ & Popular Podcaster): So now fast forward to where we are today ladies and gentlemen and given the few facts we have one would only conclude that Johnny is going to be in Chicago tomorrow afternoon to announce “something big” Well nothin is bigger than me baby, but if it is what I think it is then yeah it will be pretty damn big…even from my standards! But one question that I’m noticing a lot of you askin in the comments is Johnny Stylez going to announce the return of OPW or NEW?...And if it is OPW why in the hell would he go all the way to Chi-Town to do it?
YOUTUBE PODCASTER: Which brings up even more questions…Chief among them, so since it is in Chicago does that mean NEW is coming back? And if so, is “THE HYPE” gunna come out of hiding and be apart of this? And if so someone please explain to me HOW IN THE HELL THAT IS EVEN GOING TO WORK? We’ve all heard the wild stories about what happened when Johnny and Jesse fell out years ago, as people on both sides said they would be shocked if the two ever said another word to the other. I’m sure there is some audio we could play where we could hear Johnny tell you himself how he felt about his dear cousin…
Joe Rogan(Podcaster UFC Announcer): And well we had Jesse on the show a little over two years ago, and I don’t recall him saying very many flattering things about his cousin…As a matter of fact if I’m not mistaken our show wasn’t the only one Jesse colorfully “shot” on his cousin as they say in the biz. So moral of the story here folks if these two were able to mend fences so to speak they had to have one hell of a construction crew. Because that last one didn’t just affect them it affected the entire pro wrestling watching universe! And really if anyone listening to this think LA Johnny Stylez “The Don of Di$Re$PeCT” as he calls himself would ever reach out and say he is “sorry” HA, well let’s just say you don’t know what you are talking about!
Chester( Former TEW Tag Team Champ & Popular Podcaster): And I’m here to tell yall, if you think Johnny can be an asshole…Who the hell you think grew that man up? Showed him the ropes? Jesse Styles…THE Jesse Styles I know personally is well versed himself in the art of assholery, and also aint one to say he was sorry. Bottom line these two couldn’t admit they were wrong even if they are! So that is why I, along with any and everyone else will have my eyes peeled at that press conference tomorrow because I honestly have no idea what this is all about…
YOUTUBE PODCASTER: But if it is what we all hope it is and tomorrow Johnny and Jesse emerge and announce the relaunch of NEW then we will be seeing the rebirth of one of the greatest wrestling promotions the world has ever known! They started in 2010 and went all the way to 2019…Like any wrestling promotion before or sense they suffered periods of up and down but there was a time when the path to greatness in pro wrestling went straight through NEW. The single promotion toppled an entire territory known as GFED after soundly defeating Total Extreme Wrestling in a ratings war…
TEW eventually folded while NEW scooped up all that were worth scooping, they did it again when they went to FEDWARZ and continued the historied legacy there as the brightest shining wrestling promotion hands down…The biggest names, the biggest matches on the biggest stages SO many memories, iconic moments, outstanding matches, innovative concepts, and not to mention a loyal rabid fan base, as they for better or for worse built one of the longest lasting and strongest legacies in the history of pro wrestling!
And given the bleak outlook of the pro wrestling game today this is one wrestling fan who is anxiously awaiting tomorrow praying to God for the return of the pro wrestling empire known as New Edge Wrestling.
Lisa Ann(Pornstar/Podcaster): Guys enough with the calls already! I posted it on twitter and facebook not to mention I started off the show saying I have no clue what Johnny is up to? Would I like to see him return to the ring, especially in NEW? Sure maybe then he wouldn’t be such an asshole…Cause let me tell ya when he isn’t involved with wrestling the guy can be…Difficult I think is the nicest way I can say it…But hey I love you Johnny! I will be among the many watching this press conference tomorrow, and just know whichever way the ball bounces tomorrow me and the rest of your girls are behind you, or ontop whatever you are into…HA just jokin…I know exactly what he is into, and trust me there isn’t enough time on the show to open that can of worms!
The last image we see is of a former NEW superstar…former NEW Blackout Champion Adrien Specter sitting at the kitchen table in his home, across from him is someone interviewing him, we cant see who it is, but it is irrelevant…What is relevant is the question they asked Adrien Specter.
Interviewer: SO Adrian we assume you have heard the rumors regarding the return of New Edge Wrestling, is there anything you’d like to share on the subject.
Specter (who still looks more or less the same) sits there glaring into the camera with one of the most serious looks on his face we have ever seen as he reaches down to his right side and holds up a sign that says
“FUCK NEW”
Specter then extends his middle finger and then throws his hand in front of the camera immediately ending the interview..Suddenly the montage ends and we see the mysterious figure watching all of this on a large television hanging on the wall and the silhouette face of the man we saw at the beginning of all this flashes an arrogant smirk that turns into a chuckle as he continues smoking his cigarette exhaling the smoke through his nostrils while watching the Specter bit Suddenly we see the mysterious figure sitting underneath the TV hanging on the wall. The hand raises a black small ROKU remote and turns the TV off. He takes one final drag of his cigarette and then puts it out on the NO SMOKING sign hanging up on the wall right underneath the TV hanging on the wall.
The figure then stands up and steps into the light and we then see for ourselves…The PaRaGoNa oF AMeRiKaNa, THE DoN oF DI$Re$PeCT HIMSELF, LA Johnny Stylez looking rather dapper in a white suit with black pin striped. He has a large chain going from his back pocket to his front, his blue hair is all slicked back. He walks over to the other side of the dark room and turns the lights on. We see he is in an office room usually held for business meetings as there is the stereotypical long desk in the middle of the room with 8 black leather swivel chairs on each side.
Scattered all over the desk is a punch of paper work that Johnny starts fumbling through obviously looking for something. We see his phone light up and then begin to vibrate as Johnny seems annoyed by this. HE shoots his eyes in its direction to see who is calling and he sees the name of his new assistant that was on the verge of being fired much faster than the other one. Johnny rolls his eyes and grabs his phone and hits the silent button, as he shakes his head and throws his phone back on the table and continues his pursuit of…whatever the phuck he lost?
But before Johnny can make any real headway in solving the case, his phone lights up and starts to vibrate again. This time we can see the fury in Johnny’s eyes as he quickly jerks the phone off the table and answers it.
LA Johnny Stylez: WHAT?...WHATWHATWHATWHAT WHAT IN THE PHUCKING PHUCK DO YOU WANT? Yeah I saw the video thing, it was phuckin great the kids’ll love it! Wait?...They wanna do what now? Remove the Adrien Specter part? Why in the phuck would you do that it was practically the best part or at least the funniest…He had to answer the questions holding up a sign!...Ya know, cause he can’t speak! Because the dumb phuck cut his own tongue out of his head trying to beat me and failed…You know if I have to explain it to you, you are just a…Wait what? They are ready for me?...OK HOLD ON lemme check and see if I have any phucks to give!?!?.....You still there?...K yeah bad news
!!!!!I’M FRESH OUT!!!!!
TeLL THoSe ASSBAGS THEY WILL WAIT UNTIL I’M READY FOR THEM!!!
TeLL THoSe ASSBAGS THEY WILL WAIT UNTIL I’M READY FOR THEM!!!
[/font][/i]
…There is something I have to do first anyway! Ohh and tell the editors that if they edit that promo video Adrien Specter won’t be the only person who has to speak in sign language for the rest of their natural born ya digg? Cool?...COOL! Now best phuck off, cause I gotta get myself together…Meaning if you call me back with anymore insignificant shit I’ll not only fire you, but you’ll be back to giving blowies on the internet…We understand one another?...Good thank you dear…I’ll be out in a few…KBYE…EUREKA!!!
As Johnny hangs up his phone his eye catches what he was searching for. The fat blunt he had rolled for this here special occasion! What’s the special occasion you may ask? Well he’ll tell ya…After he is done lighting this blunt of course.
Johnny holds the blunt in front of him and once again flicks his zippo back and sparks the flame. He lets the fire kiss the edge of it for a few moments before pulling it up and taking a strong steady pull. HE holds it in and walks around the office almost pacing. It is almost as if he is nervous and he is doing everything to get his thoughts together. He makes his way to the head of the table as he collects his papers and clutter all over the table. After neatly stacking some papers into a manilla folder, he takes a hit from his blunt and then places it in the makeshift ashtray he made out of a broken scotch glass. He takes a deep breathe and places both arms on the table. He then looks up directly into the camera and smiles as he begins to speak.
LA Johnny Stylez: Yall mah phuckerz ReaDy? GOOD!
!!!!!!MeF’N2!!!!!
…Now Quit Phuckin ABOUT AND LeT’S GO SAVE RASSLIN…AGAIN!!!!
…Now Quit Phuckin ABOUT AND LeT’S GO SAVE RASSLIN…AGAIN!!!!
[/font][/i]
Or to put a finer point on it…LET’S GO HOME!!!
Johnny then stands up, straightens his suit and checks himself in the mirror on the back of the closed office door. Johnny then nods at himself and flashes his trademark arrogant smirk as he reaches for the door handle and opens the door. HE walks down the hallway takes a right, then a left and then comes to a hallway with a small crowd of people hanging outside in the hall in front of the room where all this is going to take place. The moment someone looks up and sees The DoN oF Di$Re$PeCT making his way down the hall way suddenly we see cameras flashing and hear the roar of several people asking different questions all at the same time. Johnny puts on his thick rimmed black Ray Ban sunglasses as two armed security guards meet Johnny before he is engulfed by the mob.
They push their way into the room where there is a large black podium in the middle of two long tables. Behind the tables and podium is a large square object hanging up that is covered by a white sheet. In front of the tables are rows of chairs that are in the process of being filled as everyone makes their way into the room after literally waiting 45 minutes after the scheduled start of this thing.
Everyone quickly files in to their seats, as Johnny stands at the podium, as his assistant former OPW color commentator, and current adult film star Mason Moore, is going over the last few particulars as we see Johnny telling her something, as she smiles and then exits the stage. By the time Johnny turns around and faces everyone in the room holding up mics and other recording devices, he pauses briefly as if to for once take how own advice and SOAK SOME OF THIS UP. He flashes a grin as he holds his hands up and officially gets this bad boy underway!
LA Johnny Stylez: First of all I would like to say from the very depths of my heart that every single person in this room is
!!!!!WeLCoMe!!!!
For Being Privileged Enough To Be Here Today To Once Again Witness Pro Wrestling History!
For Being Privileged Enough To Be Here Today To Once Again Witness Pro Wrestling History!
[/font][/i]
One day you will all be able to look back on this moment and you will be able to tell whoever cares enough to listen to you, that you WERE ACTUALLY THERE, and that is not a privilege some people don’t experience in an entire lifetime, and if you aren’t grateful then
!!!!!YOU F’N SHOULD BE!!!!
…Or You Are Just A Brain Dead MO-RON?!?
…Or You Are Just A Brain Dead MO-RON?!?
[/font][/i]
But don’t worry ladies and gentlemen because we didn’t call all yall down here to discuss your gratitude as I assure you there will be more than enough time for that in the near and clear future. But before we got any further we are going to do something that is a little out of character for me. Most of you, all know me by a great number of nicknames or monikers. The most popular and enduring is easily THE DoN oF DI$Re$PECT, and there are quite a few people that can personally attest to the fact that is one of the most well earned monikers in pro wrestling history.
But every rule has exceptions, and unfortunately today one of those exceptions will be made. I wish it were under different circumstances, but truth be told if it weren’t for this we may not all be standing here today fixing to change the wrestling world all over again. SO before we get to it we are going to pause briefly and have a moment of silence for a friend of ours that is no longer with us. One of the most beloved characters in the history of NEW PCW and the BCW! He was of course like most members of the NEW roster completely and utterly
!!!!!BaT SHiT CRaZy!!!!!
…And HE DID IT BeTTeR THAN ANYONE!!!
…And HE DID IT BeTTeR THAN ANYONE!!!
[/font][/i]
And really if pro wrestling had 20 more just like him I promise the entire business would be in way better shape than it is now. So please let us bow our heads and pay our respects to the former PCW Television Champion, and one of the funniest light hearted genuinely good people this game of ours has ever known…Right we cause to remember our friend, who is gone but NO FORGOTTEN the one and the mother phucking only
~$~ L.A. KieF ~$~
…Who Is Probably Giving THe Ultimate Warrior A Mouth Full of Kief AS WE SPEAK!!!
…Who Is Probably Giving THe Ultimate Warrior A Mouth Full of Kief AS WE SPEAK!!!
A silence falls over the crowd as Johnny bows his head to remember his friend. Then after a few moments Johnny lifts his head and wipes a small tear from his eye as he reaches in his pocket and pulls out a pack of smokes. He pops one in his mouth and lights it. The people in the audience are taken back at the audacity of this man smoking during a press conference? But Johnny does what he always does…Carries on like he doesn’t notice their stupid smug faces (but he does and on the inside he is laughing at every single one of them)...Johnny takes a drag and then exhales the smoke through his nostrils and continues.
LA Johnny Stylez: And now to the business at hand. You don’t have to be fuggin Sherlock Holmes to figure the out what is going on here exactly. Here we are at the NEW headquarters in Chicago Illinois, and I stand before you here today as living breathing proof of why one of the most common sayings in pro wrestling is to
!!!!!NeVeR Say NeVeR!!!!!!
…And I HaVe NeVeR IN My LiFe BeeN SO GLAD I WAS WRONG!!!
…And I HaVe NeVeR IN My LiFe BeeN SO GLAD I WAS WRONG!!!
[/font][/i]
But before we say what we came here to say and make anything official please let me bring out my cousin, the former New Edge Wrestling Heavyweight Champion of the World, and one of the most successful wrestling promoters in the history of the game…Chicago’s own “Hype” Jesse Styles!
Applause…
Applause….
Applause
Jesse Styles emerges from the opposite side of the room Johnny entered from. He makes his way up onto the stage. His expression is all business. He is wearing a black tailormade Armani suit. He has a bottle of water in his hands that he sets down on the table behind him as he shakes Johnny’s hand as we see what appears to be almost a million camera flashes as this was definitely a site to behold. Johnny and Jesse then face the crowd as both smile and take a moment to take it all in. They then look at each other as Johnny nods in his cousins direction and we hear him say the words…GO head YOU TELL EM!!!
Jesse shakes his head and rolls his eyes as he takes his place at the center podium as Johnny takes a step back towards the sheet hanging over the large object behind them.
Jesse Styles: Well incase this isn’t painfully obvious at this point, I guess the only thing that is left is just to come out and say it…So yes ladies and gentlemen the rumors are indeed fact true once again New Edge Wrestling is OFFICIALLY COMING BACK!!!
Everyone in attendance erupts in applause and cheers as Johnny pulls the sheet down to reveal a brand new New Edge Wrestling logo with blue and red colors. Then suddenly all the reporters, bloggers, and everything else in between starts to all ask their questions all at the same time. Jesse holds up his hands as Johnny steps back on stage at the right side of his cousin, Johnny nudges his head in front of Jesse so he is able to speak into the mic.
LA Johnny Stylez: Yes..of course you have questions, and I’d be willing to wager half of them are nowhere near the mark of anything that can be considered intelligent, so let us go ahead and answer most of them off top. For instance, not that it is any of your got damn business but Jesse Styles is indeed the majority owner and operator of New Edge Wrestling!
Jesse Styles: OK, OK Johnny…You did say you were going to let me do this right? Cause I’ve been telling you for years things like this are easier to do when you are not running that mouth of yours…Take 5 CUZ, I got this…
Johnny mouths something probably very rude and offensive to his cousin, which only causes the audience and even Jesse to crack a smile for the first time since he has been up there. Jesse then readjusts the mic and begins to speak.
Jesse Styles: OK, so yeah basically as you all know or heard by now, the wrestling community, us in particular . Were all devastated when we heard the very unfortunate news of LA Kief’s passing…The fans lost one hell of an entertainer, but we here at New Edge, lost not just a roster member, but a friend…NO FAMILY, and it just puts things into perspective. And no matter where I go or what else I try to do, in the back of my head it is always calling to me…And as I look around the sport today I notice some very drastic and unsettling patterns that I recall seeing a long time ago when we all competed on the AOL circuit.
And that is when I went to work for New Edge originally, and then as the history books will gladly tell ya it wasn’t shortly after that when we gained control and put out amazing show after amazing show defeating any and everyone who opposed us until we were the only real game in town. But the game I see today isn’t even a shell of the game when we first started this thing. Wrestling federations on top of federations open and close after one PPV cycle, assuming they even make it that far. Someone has to put a stop to this before the game we love so much begins to vanish.
NEW was once upon a time a beacon of hope in the landscape of pro wrestling, and I truly believe we can do it again, and with the roster that is slowly but surely taking shape I can tell you with absolute confidence that I believe NEW’s best days are in front of us!
Reporter#1: Ohh yeah? Last we all heard you two were at each other’s throats and now you’ve what? Kissed and made up and now everything is fine?...I guess my question is why do this? Why now?
Jesse Styles: Look people I could sit out here and give you some speech about blood being thicker than water, because you are right the last time the both of us were in the public eye we were at each other's throats…to the point where I’m sure one of us would have tried to murder the other had it come to that. But truth be told after we received news of LA Kiefs passing both Johnny and I came to grips with reality.
Despite whatever differences we may have had in the past, one thing we have in common is that this business runs deep in our blood. ANd to be perfectly honest with all of you when AGW closed I thought I was done. I even stopped watching the shit…but even then I still would hear this nagging in the back of my mind, telling me that this is where I belong because once again pro wrestling needs New Edge Wrestling.
Reporter#2 : And what is it you believe exactly that NEW can provide or contribute to the current landscape of pro wrestling?
Jesse Styles: I can see it all on your faces that you doubt us…Which is mind boggling to me considering how many times we have proven each and every one of you wrong time and time again. Let me just go ahead and point out that we are very much aware that the game has changed a good bit since NEW was at its strongest, and we know we are going to have to change right along with it. We aren’t coming back to relive the glory days…We are here to build BRAND FUCKING NEW ONES! Because here at NEW we have always done pro wrestling just like the rest of em…Only we’ve always done it better!
We know how to put our talent in the position to be the best versions of themselves. Our CHAMPIONSHIPS truly define what it means to be a champion in this business because each of them have been bleed for and to hold one of NEW’s illustrious prizes you do have to be a cut above the rest of them. We have a mix of fresh talent and a spectacular collection of some of the vets that have contributed to making New Edge Wrestling the staple it is, was, and God willing always will be.
Reporter #3: And what about you Johnny???…You are being uncharacteristically quiet, why aren’t we at an OPW relaunch party…You owned it all, and sorry but I don’t believe I’m the only one here who thinks you did this for family or any other reason that isn’t a selfish one!
LA Johnny Stylez: OPW had it’s time in the sun…But as we have stated several times already the current state of the business needs something bigger…It needs something stronger. OPW was a successful upstart promotion but I was never able to achieve the degree of success New Edge Wrestling had, and well if you are gunna phuckin do something ya might as well do it right??
!!!!!RiGHT!!!!!
PLUS WITHOUT IT I WOULDN’T BE ABLE TO ACHIEVE WHAT I REALLY WANT!!!
PLUS WITHOUT IT I WOULDN’T BE ABLE TO ACHIEVE WHAT I REALLY WANT!!!
[/font][/i]
Because the other announcement I came here to make today is that I am once again returning to active competition FULL TIME starting at New Edge Wrestling’s first show that is now just a few weeks away! So yeah maybe I had my own selfish reasons, but that doesn’t change the fact that people very badly need to be reminded or straight up
!!!!!F’N TAUGHT!!!!!
WHAT ACTUAL F’N GREATNESS IS!!!
WHAT ACTUAL F’N GREATNESS IS!!!
[/font][/i]
You see these promotions filled with these recycled and rerun gimmicks, capping their talent keeping them from being what they actually are or could be. It’s a joke a very bad joke, and I intend to see to it personally that New Edge Wrestling returns to its place atop this industry as the promotion where GREATNESS IS EARNED AND REDEFINED EVERY PHUCKING NIGHT!!! Because if you look at what history has taught us…THat when myself and this man standing up here next to me are on the same page there are no limits we cannot achieve. If you look up and down at the history of New Edge Wrestling, it’s most prosperous and historic moments came when Jesse and I were on the same page and understood what it took to make NEW what we had always intended it to be!
Jesse Styles: Cause look people do I trust Johnny?...FUCK NO…Only a got damn fool would trust LA Johnny Stylez, but one thing I have learned to be able to count on is his ego and own self interest. And despite everything that happened…Everything we said or did to one another out of anger does not even compare to what we know we can accomplish together with this regenesis of New Edge Wrestling! We have both tried to leave this business behind us, but we keep being called back, because we know this is who we are and this is what we FUCKING DO!
Reporter #4: SO you two mentioned there is already a show scheduled…What details if any can you give us about that?
Jesse Styles: The next episode of Ignite that is going to kick off this new era of New Edge Wrestling will feature two matches. THe first will be a rumble match where the winner will receive a special prize and the runner up and third place will also receive something that should largely impact their stance here in the new New Edge . BUt this match is meant to give everyone a taste of things to come in this new era as the match is filled with some of New Edge’s most recognizable stars and some of the freshest faces all looking to carve out their new legacy here in NEW.
ANd then of course in the MAIN EVENT, after much reflection I decided that it was best that we go ahead and crown a champion here on the first night. New Edge is going to need a face moving forward someone that perfectly embodies who and what it means to be the New Edge Wrestling Champion of the World. Someone who knows what it takes to be champion, someone who understands the burdens and challenges that come with it. Someone who knows how to wear our top prize with pride and make it the most sought after prize in our game.
And so I went and got the two greatest champions in New Edge Wrestling history and booked them to face each other one on one one more time to determine who will be the one to lead us into the future…So consider it official one more time for the NEW HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP of the WORLD…LA JOHNNY STYLEZ will go one on one against the last man to wear the NEW crown, his arch rival none other than Roger WRIGHT!!!
THe crowd lets out a huge gasp as Johnny and Jesse look at each other and smirk. Jesse motions off to the side and suddenly one of the new interns brings Jesse a clipboard and a pen. Jesse places it on the table and hands the pen to Johnny. As Johnny leans over and reads it over we see camera flashing all over the room. Jesse then stands back in front of the podium and begins to speak.
Jesse Styles: I got Roger’s signature Johnny…All we need to make it official is for you to sign on the dotted line.
Johnny arrogantly smirks at his cousin as he bends over and signs his name on all the appropriate places making his dream of once again becoming the New Edge Wrestling Heavyweight CHampion of the World A REALITY!
Reporter #4: SO wait Johnny, lemme ask ya…If you win the NEW World TItle for a 6th time will you be able to manage both your responsibilities as Champion as well as owner of the company?
Johnny goes to speak, but Jesse bows his head first and abruptly answers for his cousin.
Jesse Styles: NO! He can’t!
LA Johnny Stylez; Wait…THE PHUCK DID YOU JUST SAY?
Jesse Styles: Sorry Johnny, but you know just as well as I do…You have to choose…You wanna run behind the scenes then fine there is always a spot for you, but as long as you are an active competitor or especially NEW World Champion then you will have no power or say with anything backstage here at NEW. THe integrity of the company and the NEW title is paramount and I can’t have you corrupting it out of the gate. I’m sorry!
LA Johnny Stylez: You’re phucking sorry?...You must be phucking HIGH TOO! Because I had my lawyers go over it over and over again, and my ownership stake in this company is IRON F’N CLAD CUZ! SO I’d love to hear how you propose to keep me from doing things the way I’ve always done them…Which of course is
!!!!MY F”n WAY!!!!!
Cause IRONICALLY ENOUGH MY WAY IS ALSO THE GOT DAMN HIGHWAY!!!
[/i][/b][/div]Cause IRONICALLY ENOUGH MY WAY IS ALSO THE GOT DAMN HIGHWAY!!!
[/i][/b][/font]
SO let’s just omit all of this from the record and we can pretend like it never happened, and focus on the very bright future of yours truly once again wearing the NEW WORLD TITLE AROUND MY PHUCKIN WAIST!!!
Jesse Styles: You are right Johnny…Your stake in the company is iron clad and pretty much uncontestable…But so is that NEW TITle match contract you just signed…Which clearly states that as long as you are an active competitor you forgo your rights to have a voice in anything that pertains to the day to day operating of New Edge Wrestling!
LA Johnny Stylez: Jesse Styles you sneaky son of a bitch…SO this is how you want to start shit off is it? Well just you wait CUEBALL, because I will be the NEW Champion again…and if you or any of the rest of you gaping jaw phucksocks think I was bad before…Well I can promise you that none of yall
[font face="impact"]!!!!!HaVe SeeN SHIT YET!!!!!
…AND IF YOU KEEP PLAYIN WITH ME JESSE I WILL BURY YOU RIGHT NEXT TO WHERE IM GUNNA BURY ROGER WRIGHT ONCE AND FOR ALL!!!
…AND IF YOU KEEP PLAYIN WITH ME JESSE I WILL BURY YOU RIGHT NEXT TO WHERE IM GUNNA BURY ROGER WRIGHT ONCE AND FOR ALL!!!
[/i][/b][/font]
Matter of fact…
As Johnny goes to go into “Johnny Mode” suddenly we see the large sea of reporters, bloggers, and members of the press in attendance at this historical press conference, as someone seems to be making his way out of the building. But as people see who it is their eyes light up and immediately all the cameras in the building are off the front of the room where Jesse and Johnny were standing practically nose to nose.
We are unable to see who this figure is until he reaches the large glass doors that lead outside. A gloved hand grabs the handle, but before he opens the door he turns so we are able to see his face. And as the camera quickly cuts back to Jesse and Johnny…Johnny is up on stage practically blowing a gasket as Jesse just looks at the temper tantrum his cousin is throwing and allows a cocky smirk of his own to slowly creep across his face as the camera quickly pans back out and we see the man standing at the exit that caused all of this ruckus was none other than the man Johnny will face in two weeks for the NEW World Heavyweight TItle
…Roger F’N Wright is standing there with his blonde hair hanging in his face. HE glares at Jesse and Johnny almost with pity as he shakes his head and pushes the door open and walks out onto the street eventually disappearing from sight altogether as the camera pans back to Johnny who is so beside himself he has turned one of the tables over and is yelling at any and everything that moves.
The cameras of course are all catching every moment of this on camera as Jesse looks around and sighs a big sigh…Sure it was chaos…But this was his favorite kind…Sure Johnny was more than likely going to damage something that he shouldn’t…But as Jesse watched Roger walk away and out of sight and then Johnny breaking everything not nailed down promising to kill him gave Jesse Styles and anyone who has ever considered themselves a fan of New Edge Wrestling a sense of relief…A sense of home…So Jesse chuckles to himself as he walks back up to the podium leans towards the mic and says…
Jesse Styles: WELCOME HOME EVERYONE!!! WE WILL SEE YALL NOVERMBER 25th!!! Damn it’s fuggin great to be home!
Jesse then backs away and walks off stage leaving Johnny to his own devices, as Jesse makes his way out into the hall. He makes a hard left at the end of the hall and then a right. He stands in front of a large black door with an elaborate glass windows that you are unable to see through. On the top of the door it says
“OWNER & CEO OF NEW EDGE WRESTLING”
JESSE STYLES
JESSE STYLES
Jesse puts his hand on the knob and takes a deep breathe as he turns the knob and opens the door. We get a brief view of his large office that overlooks the busy city of Chicago. We see his large wooden desk, his elaborate black chair and even his case holding every single NEW Championship ever created inside of them. Jesse takes a step in and looks around. He then turns around and forces the camera to back up as once we find ourselves outside the office, Jesse offers a smile to the camera and a brief wave before he turns and slams the door in all of our faces as he gets down to business and the rest of us are left to anticipate the next chapter in one of the greatest wrestling promotions in the history of the game. IN other words STAY TUNED…WE IZZZ JUSSSSS GETTIN STARTED!!!
