KØЯ∃ Pure Championship
Pure Rules Match
Derek Wellings vs. TJ Alexander ©

(The scene opens up with TJ Alexander, dressed in blue jeans, and a white t-shirt with short sleeved and a gold chain around his neck, on his left shoulder is the Underground championship, standing in front of a IWE background)

“Last Monday I had the opportunity to defend the Underground championship against Kyle Stevenson and Damien Kostich, both of which pulled out their very best against me, but in the end, I got the win, I pulled my very best out of the bag and I brought my “A” game, and got the win, and now I am still the Underground champion, since I was the last ever 5150 champion, I was given the underground championship, and I make a declaration now, I am gonna make the Underground championship as popular and as desirable as any of the other main championships, but while I am the Underground champion, I have the opportunity to become a double champion, as this Monday on KORE Assault I am up against Derek Welling, for the vacant Pride championship.”

(TJ rubs his hands together)

“Derek it’s going to be me versus you at KORE ASSAULT on Monday, where it’s very fitting because I remember my first stint here in AWS where you and I met for the very first time and you bested me, you got the win and you stood tall, that was back then and now a lot of things have changed, I’ve grown into the man you see now, I’ve learned a lot and I’ve learned from my mistakes, and with all of that Derek I know that come Monday at KORE Assault I get to find balance, find that redemption of beating you.”

(TJ pauses)

“And Derek don’t get me wrong, you’ve earned the respect you get, but seriously man, like seriously, you’re time is running up, you’re fifty years old, and yet you still think you can do this, that you can get in the ring with someone who has more hunger and more determination than you, you’re so wrong, and I’m gonna prove it, you see time is very important, we all know that, and time has been unlucky for you, because while you have had a impressive list of accolades, your body is just not going to be able to deal with the time in the ring for much longer.”

(TJ smiles)

“You are going to feel every ache and pain if you don’t already, and no matter how many pills you throw down your throat to numb the pain, those pains will come to the surface by me, you see Derek, it’s only a matter of time that you leave your boots in the middle of the ring and hang it up, so why don’t you do it on your own terms, come to KORE Assault and put your boots in the middle of the ring with me across from you, giving you a round of applause, and thanking you for your contributions, or you could show up at KORE Assault face me and see what the difference is between the first time you faced me and won and now the time you face me, because there are widely massive differences, and really Derek, I don’t want to be the guy that puts you on the shelve for good bruv.”

(TJ pauses)

“Derek don’t let me be the guy that’s the one that retires you, walk out of the business the same way you walked in, on your own two feet, and allow me to be handed the pride championship, because really that title needs me like the Underground championship needs me, I will elevate both titles to be most desirable, while in your hands they won’t be. Derek at KORE Assault, I’m walking in with one championship in my hands, and I’m walking out with two championships in my hands.”

(TJ smiles)

“Derek I know you have knowledge that I have not learned yet and you will use that to try and get the advantage over me, but believe me I am more of a sponge now than ever before, and I take in every detail in and I consume it, I use it and I will use it against you, and when I find the way to beat you, I will exploit it. And Derek you’re not untouchable, you can be defeated, and you will be defeated by me, see you at KORE ASSAULT.”

(Scene ends)

Derek Wellings looks angry. He recently lost his AWS World Tag Team Championship. He's frustrated.

*** Derek Wellings ***
The last time you saw me, I was in a tag team match with Leon Roberts. We took on Drake Nygma and Orphius Marius. As much as I hate to say it, not only did we lose, but I also took the pinfall.

Derek punches a wall locker behind him. It echoes throughout the locker room he's in. Rage fills his eyes as disappointment in himself seethes from every part of his body.

*** Derek Wellings ***
This week at Kore Assault, I have a chance at redemption. That's coming at your expense, TJ Alexander. Drake and Ophius have pissed me off by daring to step up to myself and Leon Roberts. I'll have my words about them next time at Ward for when we face off for our tag team titles, which we will get back mind you. But this week? This is between you and me.

Rubbing his hands together, and licking his lips, Derek has a malicious smile on his face. Popping loudly, Derek's knuckles crack.

*** Derek Wellings ***
Your 5150 Championship doesn't mean anything anymore, it's dead. But your Underground Championship? That should be mine, I beat your punk ass. I beat you, fair and square mind you, in the middle of the ring, ONE... TWO... THREE. I left you counting stars as you glazed over eyes focused on the lights above you. It was a flight of angels to sing you to heaven. That was me, partner of "The Devil" Leon Roberts and I'm an asshole to drag you to Hell.

The disappointment and rage have disappeared, once more, Derek is smiling and very confident in himself. The Airborne Ranger stands up straight and focuses on a poster of "The Game Changer" TJ Alexander with his KORE Underground Championship.

*** Derek Wellings ***
You're confident for a slacker. You're someone who hasn't defended his title against me or anyone else. If it wasn't for the fact the rules contract one another, I'd tell you to put your money where your husband's cock is, ie your mouth, and put your title on the line and I'll put my career on the line. Could you imagine beating me? A 17-year ring warrior and capturing a second championship? But that's not you. You're a humble man, aren't you? You come here to AWS, you humbly serve food while hungry people eat food. I'm hungry and I want the KORE Pure Championship. At KORE Assault, I'm going to shit on you like Scruff McGruff shits all over crime. I'll see you at KORE Assault and I'm going to leave with the PURE Championship, maybe I'll take your Underground Championship to prove that you're not worth of either title. I'll see you at very soon, my friend.

~FIN

Author's Note: I'm sorry, TJ Alexander. I legitimately couldn't think of anything for a role-play. All I could do was trash talk. You deserve a much better opponent than me. I honestly think I'm mentally done, I have been struggling to think of something since day 1. That's no one's fault but my own, thinking I had one last run in me. Turns out it's my dying breath. I'm sorry I am just not any good anymore, if you win: Congratulations, if I win: you made me earn it.
