Vs. BLADE & KADE: OUTBREAK 10.3.17

TRUST: PART I

 

The Scene Opens….

 

Leaning against the gate and overlooking the Fountain show in front of the Bellagio stands the gorgeous, Peyton Rice, the current Cruiserweight Champion. Peyton has been teetering back and forth recently with her emotions, things haven’t exactly gone well with her and Ricky Octavius, losing faith in the business but having conversations with several others has reassured her that not all is lost. Wearing ripped jeans, wedge sandals and a white halter top with her long hair hanging down and nails polished white, she holds the Championship over her shoulder, turning to the camera…

 

REC:

 

As it begins to record, she speaks….

 

“I made a promise to Niles Gray and I kept it. I went into the last Turmoil with one thing in mind and that was to win, nothing more, nothing less. Niles Gray was fighting for his job, I gave him my word, no matter what my feelings were toward him, I would give him and this match 100% effort. I did that, we won and Niles now has his job but that’s was last Turmoil. Now we are on the main show and on Outbreak I team up with the woman who I faced at Against All Odds, defending my Cruiserweight Championship. It’s a tough one, let’s face it not only is Dr. Grace Morningwood a veteran, she is also one of the best this Division has ever seen. She’s not even that old, started really young which is impressive so the best is yet to come but at the same token, it bothers me a little because I cannot trust my tag team partner, in her state of mind, she’s become an opportunist and I wouldn’t pass it by her to try and take me out after the match or even during it, winning this to her means nothing, to me?

Everything.

I walk into each Turmoil or Outbreak ready to compete, I want to win, I love this sport, I will never take a day off or purposely cost anyone a match. This tag event to me? Is a great opportunity to face to very hungry and dangerous women, Siouxsie Blade and Mara Kade. It’s bad enough I have those two standing across from me, to know that I always need to look over my shoulder is a distraction but one that I’m willing to risk. Siouxsie, you’re not telling me something I don’t already know, my tag partner and I could be in trouble but guess what? So are you and Mara. She’s just as hungry, she wants her spotlight, she claims her shots every single booking, quite arrogant I must say, yet Siouxsie, unlike Doc and I?

You have something more to prove.

Doc has her title shot, it can go both ways or she can be the woman she claims and fights with honor. You’re dangerous, took out Piper, I see that, she was also in the parking lot, not expecting an attack, did you do it in her face?

No, you’re a coward.”

 

Strong words, Peyton looks over at the Championship for a second before looking back at the camera….

 

 “That doesn’t make you tough and dangerous, Siouxsie, it makes you look opportunistic. You won’t get that chance at Outbreak and as for Mara Kade? Like Siouxsie, you have all the talent in the world, we are on the same boat, trying to make an impression, cut into the business, you want to be recognized, that’s great but at one point does everything come to a head and YOU Mara become that statistic? I will NEVER call my shots, I’m not a narcissist, what I will tell you is no number you put up will be fast enough or long enough to beat me. I have this Cruiserweight title for a reason, hard work and dedication. I also had to rise, impress the brass, make it known that I was worthy, I didn’t tell them what I was going to do, I went ahead and did it just like I will at Outbreak. You and Siouxsie are two of the brightest stars in the Division, just like me and Doc, it is in good hands, the whiners and complainers are gone…..

Mara and Siouxsie?

It’s time we made our acquaintance.

Now Doc, I heard all the things you had to say to me. I will reiterate one more time….

I’m not you and never will be.”

 

Peyton brushes her hair back, looking over at the Championship and breaking a smile…..

The Scene Opens…

 

Peyton Rice in ripped jeans, boots and a white halter top, with her hair blowing in the breeze, nails polished white, looking beautiful as ever, holding the Cruiserweight Championship over her shoulder, glancing at the camera and nods with the Golden Gate Bridge in the background…

 

REC:

 

She had just spoken a little while before about Niles Gray, this time it was time to address her opponents…

 

“I know that I am wrong for allowing my frustrations to get the better of me, I see where so many others have gone down this path but you see, this was never about my ability, win/loss record or certain opponents, this was all about the poor decisions made after I won the Cruiserweight Championship. Did Fleur Jamieson and the UWA office, Twitter account or Social Media talk about the things Christy Hightower did for this division? Our match? Even the rest of the show and the efforts of newcomers like Siouxsie Blade and Mara Kade? The incredible performance by Doc Morningwood and Andrea Hernandez?

No, they talked about cancelling Turmoil.

Did the UWA on a consistent basis showcase their talent? Talk about the great workers we have in this company?

No, they talked about a “hacker”.

Does the UWA praise its Champions? Promote the upcoming matches and the uniqueness of our brand whether the main roster or the Cruiserweights?

No, they talk about how the X-Limits Championship lost its identity?

How is that supposed to make Ricky Octavius feel? Me? Sophie James and Abilana? Daisy Lee? The ladies that hold these titles and represent what I thought was the best wrestling promotion in the world and STILL do though right now it seems a little lost and no blame on David Helms there? It made us feel pretty futile. Niles Gray and the rest of you can say what you feel, it’s your right, we all have opinions. When I chose to align myself with Shaun Cruze, I took a pretty huge brunt of the fallout after the Taylor Chase ordeal, I accepted that and moved on. I’m the Cruiserweight Champion, all that is told to me is “Don’t get lost in the roster”?

Disappointing.

Then I decided to look in the mirror and see myself for who I was, this young, hungry athlete that wants to make her dad proud of her, all I ever wanted was his respect and that of the three men who trained me and I owe everything too and yet so many others acted like I was coddled, given this without earning it? The “Chosen One” and it brought a tear to my eye for one reason….

Because for a moment?

I felt like Dr. Grace Morningwood and that scared me.”

 

She looks away for a second, almost ashamed and yet still so passionate about her stance and words….

 

“Dr. Grace Morningwood was an Icon of Paragon. So many people want to throw that word around but if ANYONE was that it was Doc. She would take so much heat for her stance in this sport, she believed in the system, she had faith in each and every single one of us. If there was ANYONE that I never thought would turn into a self-serving, egomaniac like so many are there now, I thought it would have been her….

But I was wrong for somewhere along the way, just like me? Doc lost her faith in this sport. I don’t want to do that, I won this title because I worked hard to earn it, it is so aggravating and jarring when so many decisions are made poorly that I do question the leadership, I start to grow doubt just like Dr. Morningwood did and then what?

I become her?

There is nothing I have more than respect for Doc, Carter Carruthers on the other hand is a blowhard, he serves NO purpose in this Division at all and just makes things worse but Doc? She was THE Role Model so many young women looked up to and to see what she has become not only saddens, it frightens me to the core to the point I don’t even trust my own emotions right now.

So, come Monday, I’m going to do the right thing.

I will help a man that I do not like or respect as a person, his ability yes, win back his job and I’ll do so reminding my opponents?

I’m not another “Pretty” face.”

 

Peyton slowly looks away…..

She takes a deep breath before speaking….

 

“It seems like when you have an opinion, when someone is frustrated with how things are going, trying to stay positive but bad decision after bad decision continue to happen, you’re called a sellout or you think someone owes you something. For a person like Niles Gray, to become the morality police and act like he has a right or a place to judge ANYONE after all he’s said and done is bad comedy. For you Niles, to insult me? To say you don’t see a champion, that I don’t have a right to be upset because YES the business is broken?

That’s not for you to say.

There are only FIVE people in this world who’s opinions matter to me, you’re not one of them. I love the UWA and that’s why I’m angry. I look over at the SCW and I see the number one company, you know why? They don’t make the constant bad decisions this promotion does. For the last six months, all I have seen is a light at the end of the tunnel only to be dimmed. While I have been doing my best to become Champion, listening to the criticisms and taking beatings at every turn where have you been Niles? Working on your tan? Pumping some iron? Having sex with multiple girls and throwing them out of your apartment with enough change to catch an Uber? See Niles, I have a RIGHT to be upset, I have a RIGHT to be vocal and I have a RIGHT to an opinion whether you or anyone else agrees.

That doesn’t mean I’ve changed.

It means I’m not going to allow my kindness to be my advantageous weakness. I think you forget something, you NEED me more than I NEED you right now. See, I could easily not show up, lay down, give 20% effort, because if we don’t win, you don’t have a job.

I could do that….

But I won’t.

That would be slapping David Helms, Matty Stone and Thomas Valentine in the face. That would be me spitting on the trust of my father. I’ll never do that but if you want to be like EVERYONE else and berate me, act like I can’t have a say for the constant mistakes the UWA makes seemingly like they’re content being #2, then please go right ahead because then that makes you sir NO BETTER than the likes of Andrea Hernandez, Doc Morningwood and Carter Carruthers IV.

You speak of me not being an individual?

No, Niles, you sound like a broken record, keep the ego and your little new found “love” for the business at the door, I don’t trust nor believe you, I personally think this is an act to get your job back, well guess what bright boy?

I’m not going to cheat the system, I will NEVER take shortcuts and after Monday?

You WILL have your job back.”

 

She stops for a moment and takes a deep breath, she then turns back to the camera….

 

“If the UWA truly believed in you then why are they making this match your lifeline? Why not give you a chance, grant it? If you were a credible source, I’d gladly listen, you’re worse than all of us I’ll pass but I give you my word, I’m coming to win, to give my best and my frustrations, while I can agree were a little bit too much, needed to be said and now that I have it off my chest, I’m here to be Cruiserweight Champion and trust me, I won’t lose any sleep if you don’t see me as one Niles.

Doc Morningwood, I see the frustrations, I get it. Carter Carruthers IV? He’s a moron. He comes out of nowhere and claims the Division is dying? No thanks to him and his stellar contributions during the last few months, I mean his words are polarizing, I can’t tell if he or the Cassidy’s have a bigger impact?

Neither do.

Niles may want to insult and degrade my character?

Go for it for I know who I am.

I’m just not taking it anymore.”

 

She turns and looks away….

Vs. DOC MORNINGWOOD & CARUTHERS IV: TURMOIL 9.18.17

DISRESPECT: PART I

 

The Scene Opens….

 

Peyton Rice, the new Cruiserweight Champion is seen looking out at the Golden Gate Bridge. The fiery and extremely attractive UWA Superstar has been very vocal about recent news regarding the division, this especially made her quite sour and bitter when she won the Championship and was quickly blindsided with the move that Turmoil would be cancelled and instead their matches featured on the main show, Outbreak. Wearing jeans, wedge sandals and a black halter top, her long hair hanging down, the Championship over her shoulder and nails polished white, her green eyes shift toward the camera as she speaks….

 

REC:

 

In her cute and sexy voice, Peyton was not happy…

 

“I look over at the Cruiserweight Championship, a belt that I’ve been wanting to win and hold proudly for many months now, going through hoops, hurdles and obstacles, waiting patiently for my chance one on one, all of this while watching those who claimed they earned a shot, that wanted a chance pack their bags and leave after another “loss” like Andrea Hernandez shows not only how some in this division are thin skinned but also a hypocrisy that has plagued this sport for many years and people like Ricky Octavius and I refused to buy into it. Where is Andrea now? Promoting another company, like she always did. At least Christy Hightower was a woman of her word, she dominated this division BUT when she lost, like a true champion, she handed me over the reins, this was MY Division now, my chance to lead it going forward…..

And you take it right from under me?

Turmoil, no matter the excuse was OUR show, a chance to showcase OUR talents, for us to get OUT time to shine and make OUR marks in this business and now suddenly we don’t have that platform and now there is talk we might even be part of EMERGE? Really?

Enhancement League?

See, how am I supposed to stand here positive? How am I supposed to stand here and celebrate being the Champion I busted my butt for to win? I didn’t QUIT like half of these other Cruiserweights, did I? When I lost to Piper and Andrea when we ALL know that match should have never happened did I bitch like Piper or whine like Andrea?

NO!

Instead I took my lumps, I kept my chin up and continued to wait my turn while the SAME tired old acts were getting their chances!? Why did Cassidy Carter get ANY air time when she was the laziest piece of white trash on the roster!? Cassidy Haze only promoted herself when it was convenient!? Why does Carter Caruthers IV, God help us there were three others before him, still have a job when he hasn’t said a thing in months until just yesterday!? Yet, what did I do? I took it, I continued to beat the “Best” this division had to offer one by one staying undefeated in singles competition. I was destroyed by Savali, had a chair thrown in my face by Thamuz, constantly berated on national TV by every single Cruiserweight here because of my ties to Ante Up Academy and Shaun Cruze! I took all that and you know what?

I still won this Championship by EARNING it.”

 

She flings her hair back, a scowl forming on her face when the normal sweet, innocent and vibrant Champion has finally allowed the frustrations take over. She turns back to the camera….

 

“Now I am faced with Caruthers and Dr. Grace Morningwood, my partner? Niles Gray? The same sexist, chauvinistic pig that discounted everything I have done or was going to do and now I need to help him get his job back?

Really?

Niles, you’re lucky that I love this sport and I’m a competitor, I will bring my best to this match and go for the win, I’m not about to lose after winning this Championship so count blessings but honestly, I don’t want to hear about your journey to redemption, that’s a load of malarkey, dude. As for you Doc, I’ve heard what you had to say, I get it, I understand where you are coming from but unlike you? I haven’t had spurts of futility in my young career. You want to blame others? Fine, Andrea did the same and you sent her packing, good riddance.

Me?”

 

She scoffs and says nothing more, rolling her eyes and turning her back to the camera….

Vs. CHRISTY HIGHTOWER: CRUISERWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP PART III

 

The Scene Opens….

 

The beautiful Peyton Rice stands by the water’s edge and looks out into the ocean in Portland, Oregon. On the eve of the biggest night of her career. Wearing ripped jeans, wedge sandals and a white halter top, her long hair hanging down, nails polished white, she nods…

 

REC:

 

Peyton turns her attention to the camera and begins to speak in her cute and sexy girly voice….

 

“I heard what Christy Hightower had to say and it was very nice indeed, flattering to say the least or maybe Christy is just blowing smoke up my ass so I walk into that match with my guard down and she takes advantage of my kindness like it seems everyone else has lately. She wants me to take over the division, her shelf life as Champion is over. I’m going to be blunt here with everyone and I have to do it tactfully without showing any disrespect so here we go….

I don’t give a damn about Epico Failo, Cam Knowles, Cassidy Carter, Allison Lorraine, Shaitan, Mucho Magnifico or anyone else that is no longer in the Cruiserweight Division. If Andrea Hernandez wants to keep living in the past so be it, if Christy thinks that her Championship life expectancy is that of Greek Yogurt, so be it, I’m sorry I’m not buying any of that. This Division is about the here and the now. I respect the past, tradition but it seems everyone is so caught up on what happened that no one ever concentrates on the here, the now and ESPECIALLY TOMORROW!

Well I do.

See, I came to the UWA for ONE reason, to be a Cruiserweight Champion. The whole “Oh my Gosh, I’m a wrestler now!” honeymoon is over. I am here to win, I am here to make my mark and build my legacy by establishing myself as the premiere Cruiserweight. I don’t care about the triple threat leading into Sectioned, live in the past for all I care because it will not matter when I walk into Against All Odds as the Champion. Christy, I am happy you feel that way about me, I really am, honored even but at the same time, I feel a bit insulted. What you are doing is telling the world what you think is right for this division, making the decisions on your own, the problem is what you really want is to walk out as Champion and never look back.

That is fine, I wouldn’t expect anything else but what will that say about me if I lose to you? What will that say about this Division? The Champion left and NO ONE was good enough to take that belt? No… that is unacceptable. That title belongs here and it will STAY HERE.”

 

A fired up Peyton Rice paces a little and continues to speak…..

 

“I appreciate everything you have done for this sport, for the UWA, I hope that things work out for the better, that you find what you’re looking for, I really mean that but at the same time, I have a huge issue with how this has gone down. This is not about Christy versus Peyton anymore, this is about Christy leaving and taking that belt with her in hopes Peyton wins?

Don’t you dare patronize me!

I am coming tomorrow night for one thing, to win. You want to go for drinks afterwards, fine, we can, that’s how much I think and respect you but make no mistake that you stand in my way, I will not walk back to this division a loser and look up at my GM, the man who trained me and gave me this opportunity empty handed, we both asked for this match and I don’t care about what Doc, Andrea or anyone else has to say about it, they want to try and ruin my chance with their spiteful words, so be it….

But me? I am laser focused on you Christy.

So, while you hope I become Champion? I WILL.

While you HOPE I lead this Division after you’re gone? I WILL.

When you HOPE to have an instant classic and the best match of your Cruiserweight career? I WILL.

And when the final bell rings and they raise my hand in victory? I WILL be the Champion.

The time for talk is over, I’m taking what I worked hard for and show this promotion that I am NOT just another Pretty Face!”

 

Peyton walks off….

Portlandia is a sculpture by Raymond Kaskey located above the entrance of the Portland Building, in downtown Portland, Oregon, at 1120 SW 5th Avenue. It is the second-largest copper repoussé statue in the United States, after the Statue of Liberty. Here is where we find Peyton Rice in ripped jeans, a white halter top and matching sandals with her nails polished white and long hair hanging down. Ready for her big shot at the Cruiserweight Championship, she looks over at the camera….

 

REC:

 

She speaks in her sexy, girly voice….

 

“Such a beautiful place, I have never been to Portland before but I am glad to be here and honestly, this could be even more memorable after Monday night. I’m a bit torn, there is so much inside of me that I want to let out, I have heard comments from others that sometimes make me shake my head but when it comes to why I’m here in the first place, It’s about the Cruiserweight Championship. Christy Hightower has been the Champion this division needed no matter what anyone else thinks or says, her track record has proven that. I appreciate what she said about me, the struggles I had with my father and his condition, everything that led to me standing here right now. I attribute my dad to my strength, I do this not only for me, I do it for him. I want him to be proud of me after I decided to drop out of school to pursue this and in many ways, disappoint him but I promised my father I would succeed and show him I could make this into a career….

This is my chance.

I truly am honored at the respect Christy has shown me, it is mutual, she knows that for I believe every single wrestler in this Division deserves respect, no matter how they act. I’m guilty of losing my cool, a lot of it must do with the fact I thought better of people but with everything going on in this world, nothing should surprise me anymore. Christy, I wish that I could stand here and just praise you and all, make it about what we are and what we have done, I think we are past this for the only thing which matters now?

The Championship.

 Christy, you have nothing to prove and maybe that shark inside of you smells blood in the water, ready to strike and make a statement, I get it. Isn’t that what every single champion wants? To leave on their own terms, to walk away from wrestling and or this division undefeated and say that no one could beat her? So why leave Christy? Why pack it up and allow that legacy to end short? You’re not a quitter, if anything you’re the inspiration that I needed for someone that started off as an assistant and not even a wrestler….

You proved EVERYONE WRONG.”

 

Brushing her hair back, she looks back at the camera and continues to speak….

 

“I want you to see my stance in this now, I’m where you were at not that long ago. No one believed you to be a serious threat, I walked into this Division as the “Golden Child”, the “Chosen One” all because of my ties with Shaun Cruze and NEWvolution and we all saw how that worked out. I NEVER asked for that, it was on my own accord I wanted to get a Championship match, thing is Christy in the UWA, you don’t know what failure is, there wasn’t ONE time you’ve dealt with loss and disappointment but I have. It should have been you and me at Sectioned NOT Piper. We both proved it to be the truth but now I have to shake off the pin in the triple threat. Part of that was beating Piper, I then must beat Andrea Hernandez and finally to do so I need to take what you possess and cherish….

That title.

I understand you want to end this respectfully, walk away with the belt leaving NO DOUBT in anyone’s mind you were THE Champion and in a normal setting, I would be cheering you on, hoping that Christy Hightower gets her story book ending in the UWA…..

Well, it’s not and so I’m going to play spoiler, show my dad the decisions I made were the RIGHT ones and give you a proper sendoff…

Empty Handed.”

 

Peyton sighs, then nods….
