The scene opens up in the office of Fraser Freeman. He is intently studying video footage of his opponents for Monday Mayhem on his laptop. He rewinds and re-watches clip after clip after clip, taking notes down on the notepad in front of him. There is at this point sheet after sheet, after sheet of notes spread out all over his desk. He closes his laptop and leans forward placing his elbow on the desk and begins to purposefully study the notes on the desk. See Freeman has switched into his methodical planing mode, he is running through all the moves that both Bethany and Aerynn use on a frequent basis and thinking through various different ways to counter each one. He is in the zone as he studies the notes, his mind racing at 100mph, hell you can almost see the cogs turning in his head. He leans forward and picks up the phone on his desk with real purpose, he dials one, this is the direct line to the Silver Baron's office.
Freeman: Afternoon B, listen I have been studying our opponents all day, looking at their repertoire and coming up with idea's to combat their go to moves
Freeman is cut of mid sentence.
Silver Baron: Jesus Freeman I thought we covered this already we are on the same page why are you going overkill!
Freeman: Get your head out your arse dude, we haven’t covered ANYTHING yet. Do you want to be the best? Do you want us to make a mark here that cannot and will not be ignored? Because right now you sound like a man that is content to coast, a man who thinks he can get to the top without putting in the effort. Do you want to be embarrassed on Monday Vega!
Freeman is clearly emphasising to Baron at this point that the pair need to get motivated and prepare correctly. He achieves this by simply calling him Vega, this is always the sure fire way to get his attention
Silver Baron: Damn man what crawled up your ass and died? But I do get your point i am willing to listen. What do you think we need to do?
Freeman: We need to train, we need to come up with a game plan and we need to get on it right away!
Silver Baron: Alright, when and where?
Freeman: meet me at Battle Zone gym in an hour and B clear your diary for the next 24 hours its going to be a long session!
Freeman hangs up the phone and goes straight back to reviewing his notes with an intense look on his face.
One hour later
Fraser Freeman and Silver Baron are in the training ring at the Battle Zone Gym, Las Vegas. The two meet in the centre of the ring.
Fraser Freeman: Alright so were on the same page and that’s a good start. Now to why we are here, see I have been studying the moves that Aerynn and Beth use most frequently and today we are going to work on counters for them. First up I want you to come at me and go for a drop-kick.
Baron nods and comes running at Freeman and jumps up for a drop-kick. Freeman twists to his side grabbing Barons legs and pushes them with force sending Baron crashing down. Baron rolls and gets to his feet nodding.
Freeman: Right now I am going to go for a fisherman suplex, you know what to do.
Freeman does exactly that and hooks Baron up who then uses his arm to grab hold of Freeman’s waist stopping him from lifting Baron, Baron then rolls through hooking Freeman’s leg into a pin attempt and immediately releasing. The two get up and nod pleased with there progress. Over the next few hours Freeman and Baron perform counter after counter after counter on the moves that Aerynn and Beth use most, even working on various counters for the same moves.
Freeman: OK its time for the big finish dude, come at me with a Stall n Crawl.
Baron nods and charges at Freeman looking for Aerynn's patented finishing move, as Baron jumps up into the air and goes into kicking motion Freeman moves his head out of the way of the incoming boot, he raises his arms and grips Barons leg pulling him up into the air and crashing him down with a huge single leg power-bomb. After a few seconds on the mat Baron comes round and gets to his feet tired and exhausted but clearly impressed.
Freeman: Right now im going to come at your with a super-kick give me your best counter.
Freeman’s runs at Baron and goes for a big super-kick, Baron gets his arms up and blocks it grabbing freeman’s ankle, he then sweeps out freeman’s free leg and spins round the leg he has hold of and locks in a figure four leg lock but doesn’t apply pressure simply springs to his feet.
Baron: Damn dude we got dis yo! I don’t think we have ever been this in tune!
Freeman nods before the two lock up. Over the next 3 hours the pair go at it hard in the ring, practising there own moves as well as countering their opponents, taking the odd 5 minute water break. The pair call it a day and leave the ring. Freeman hands Baron a bottle of water from the cooler at the side of the ring and takes on for himself. The pair chug them back quickly before taking deep breaths after and making a satisfying thirst quenched sound. Freeman places the empty water bottle down and begins to speak.
Freeman: Look dude, were on the same page now, were like a well oiled machine but can I trust you to help with my business?
Baron raises his eyebrow somewhat confused as to what exactly Freeman means by this.
Silver Baron: huh?
Freeman: You know my mission mate, you know what im all about. Im talking about McBride and his Children. If they show up I will be standing alongside Aerynn and Beth and I will be standing my ground because it is the right thing to do. Even if it doesn’t happen there is going to come a time when me and the Children go to war, it would be now if it wasn’t for things with Vinny. I guess what I want to know is are you going to be by my side?
The silver Baron nods along with what Freeman has said and looks like he is pondering his response, weighing up what is best to be said at this moment, after a few seconds of thought he makes his reply.
Silver Baron: We might have different ideals, but when push comes to shove, I got your back. Besides, for once I just wish that there was a bit more of an old school respect n the locker room, where skill and passion were the driving forces, not a war against some self righteous jacking cult
Freeman nods with a smirk on his face, happy to hear that he can count on his tag team partner to back him up against the children, of course only if that is what occurs.
Freeman: That is the goal my friend, that is the goal. Since day one, since the first second I arrived here, there has been a lack of respect. See in UWA the old code of honour is almost non existent. That is partly the reason for my mission mate. I want that respect brought back, I want that code of honour between skilled warriors and I will be damned if I am going to let some delusional psychotic egomanical cult leader run ruff shot around here for much longer without stepping in and looking the demon directly in the eyes without so much as a flinch!
The silver Baron chuckles to himself, whilst at the same time nodding in agreement with Freeman about what needs to be done.
Silver Baron: Jeez. and they call me the one with few screws loose. But listen, focus on the task at hand. first time in a while since we have been in the same match, and I want them to remember why we won our big début, and why every time we have.
Freeman has a wide smirk come across his face at this point and lets out a little laugh before steadying himself to reply.
Freeman: oh I think that mammoth training session just about sorted that out dude. We are on the same page, we are stronger than ever, now we need to go out there and get the job done. Now I think its time I delivered a message to our opponents.
Baron nods and smirks happy and confident that the pair are on the same page. Freeman and Baron embrace in a man hug before Freeman turns and leaves the Gym heading for the exit.
Later that evening
The scene opens up in the now familiar setting of the Nevada Desert. See this is Freeman’s come to spot, it is where he comes to clear his head, it is where he comes to deliver his messages to the UWA public. The vast nothingness and emptiness of the desert serving somewhat as a metaphor, a metaphor for how like this very desert Freeman’s head is now clear in a sense. Clear of the rage and anger that had been plaguing him that is. Freeman is stood in front of a camera with the sun beginning to rise above his head.
I stand before you all a different man to the one who first showed up in UWA. Cliché I know but since I arrived here I have been on an emotional roller-coaster, I’ve hit insane highs and astonishing lows and hell I have only been here for a few months! You have all seen me go off the rails, seen me lose control of my temper and my anger boil up to uncontrollable rage. But now I am calm, I am cool and I am collected, I have reigned in my anger and gained control over my emotions, yet it is at the point that I achieved this control that surprisingly my slide started. See as you all know I am 0 for 2 in my last two contests here , astonishingly gaining control of myself has actually led me to suffer not only my first loss, but two in quick succession. The important thing about all this is that I am not standing here bitching and moaning, I am not standing here saying I was robbed, that it was dumb luck that my opponents beat me. Nah I am standing here and I am holding my hands up.
Freeman holds his hands up in the air and shrugs, this gesture delivering a clear message to the viewer. See this shrug is like Freeman saying “hey shit happens” it is a clear admittance that he knows that he himself is the only one who can be held accountable for his recent slide in success.
See my opponents over the last month they have had the better of me, they have out smarted me and they have beat me fair and square inside the ring and the only person to blame is me. See I was so concentrated on keeping my cool and showing the world that I have changed that I lost my ruthless edge. But believe me when I tell you come Monday night that edge WILL be back! See recently I have been underestimating my opponents, I have been stuck in the mindset of “an emotionally stable and rage free me can beat anyone”. I have been stuck in this mindset so much that I have neglected my strict training regimes, I have neglected to meticulously plan for any outcome that may occur and that my UWA friends is no more, see from this moment forward I am 100% focused and ready for battle.
A smirk of confidence comes across the face of Fraser Freeman as he shakes his side from side to side, backing up his words with a visual display to the viewer that his mind is clear and he is ready to plan and become the man he knows he can be, both in and out of the ring.
See you all got a little taste of the real Freeman last week after my tag team partner and fellow Sin City Knight's match last week. The beat down you all saw Vince Jones endure, that was planed down to every last detail. See I knew Vince would attack Baron regardless of what happened in the match, I knew he would want to send a message to me by attacking my stable mate and using this foresight I planned accordingly. Now I have heard people say it was a cheap shot, that it was wrong of me to blind side Vince like that and you know what I wont disagree. See that was the whole point! A little over a month ago you all saw Vince sneak attack me, he assaulted me when I wasn’t expecting it, hell he hit me with a damn baseball bat and mowed me down with his car! Introducing him to the protector, you could say that was well planed comeuppance and no more than what he had coming!
The smirk of confidence on Freemans face shows he is pleased with the outcome of his attack. See to him he did no wrong, he was simply giving Vince Jones what he deserved by giving him a dose of his own tactics.
Plus I thought it was about time I introduced the world to my solider in arms, see the protector is here to fight the good fight, he is here to help me eliminate the evil that lurks the corridors of this company. We will do what is necessary to bring the code of honour that has long been missing in this industry back to life. See I remember when I first started in this business, you had respect for your fellow competitors, you had respect for there skill and warrior like mentality, we were all brothers in arms outside of the ring. Fast-forward to present day and that honour and respect is gone, now you get cult leaders who brainwash masses of people into creating havoc and mayhem and taking out hard working competitors just because you can. Then you get the bitter and angry maniacs like Vince who attack people whenever they like just to get the upper hand or to try and show that the loss they suffered meant nothing.
There is a calmness to Freeman in his voice, yet at the same time there is a tone of disdain, a tone that makes it obvious to anyone hearing it he clearly has deep seated hatred for the individuals he is speaking about.
See guys your not fooling anyone, your not pulling the wool over the eyes of the many, we all see you for what you are, we all see you as weak manipulators and cowards who take the easy route to get to the top. Me on the other hand, I have worked hard my entire career to get where I have and I have always been held down by people like you, I have been ambushed by groups of brainwashed stooges, I have been attacked by jealous psychopaths many times, so dont think your the first. In the past I have stuck to my morals and not retaliated, I have took the moral high ground and refused to stoop to their level. That all changed when I arrived here in UWA. See I realised that to beat people like that you do indeed have to drop to there level. That said I have found out the hard way, that you can not do this the same way they do, you can simply achieve getting one over on this type of individual by meeting their rage and aggression with the same attitude. No from now on I will do it my way, I will do it with calmness and precision. See there is an old adage in war, cold steel always beats hot steel. What does this mean I hear you say? Let me tell you all, see when you attack with rage and anger you are full of adrenaline you are all pumped up, this makes your attacks jerky and uncontrollable. Now see on the contrary if you come up against someone who is calm and collected they will simply use your heavy handedness to there advantage and that my friends is exactly what I will do from now on. See I will not show any remorse for my actions. inside the ring I am a competitor, a warrior I do what needs to be done to succeed.
Freeman smirks confidently once more as he nods his head in agreement with himself, he beats his hand on his chest and raises it above his head. This is a sign to the viewer, this is a message be it a non verbal one, see this gesture signifies to the viewer that Freeman will battle with his heart and soul and do whatever is necessary to get the job done.
See I have neglected my meticulous planning, I have neglected my strongest asset as of late, my in ring intelligence and let me tell you all no doubting it one bit, it is back and it's back with a vengeance. See I will no longer crumble in the face of a challenge, no I will meet each of my opponents from this moment froward with an air of complete calm. Each blow I strike will cut with the might of a thousand swords and I WILL get back to winning ways, it is only a matter of time.
Once more there is a smirk of confidence on the face of Fraser Freeman as he looks down at the watch on his wrist. He points at it with his other hand smirk still etched on his face. This is a symbol that he truly believes that his time is coming, this is a signal to the viewer that it is indeed only a matter of time till he climbs back up the ladder of success.
That brings me to my opponents for this weeks Mayhem, Aerynn Donnelly and Bethany Kenyon. Two mightily impressive young laddies that have been making somewhat of a name for themselves as of late. Firstly we have Aerynn, the World Champion, a woman who many wrote off as a paper champion, the woman who some even called a joke and look at her now, look what she has achieved. Aerynn has single handedly proven her doubters wrong, she has stood tall and strong against adversity and spat directly in its face! Aerynn Donnelly you to me are a worthy champion, you have my utmost respect. You are standing tall alongside your friends taking on McBride and his Children, but see Aerynn I think you are going about it all wrong. I have seen many similarities between you and myself as of late, like me you have been going through emotional stresses, like me you have been struggling to control the anger and rage boiling up inside you and I hate to say it Aerynn you can not beat the Children in this mental state. You need to gain control Aerynn, you need to keep that anger and rage in check, see your response it is exactly what the Children want, they want to throw you off your game, they want you to lose your edge and make you snap. It comes down to what I said earlier, they want you to be the hot steel and they have succeeded. That said I know what it is like to go to the deepest darkest realms of your own mind and I know it is not an easy place to escape. So Aerynn I have an open offer for you, when our match is done, when we have been to war, a war I know will be fought with the code of honour and respect of warriors that I'm keen to see more of, I am here if you want someone who knows all about the emotion and rage your facing, you know where to find me Aerynn im not that hard to find.
Fraser Freeman pulls a business card out of the pocket of his jeans holding it up to the camera, it clearly reads “pleasure dome”. This a symbol for Aerynn to come fins him any time she like at the pleasure dome. It is clear to anyone who heard Freeman speak on Aerynn that his admiration and respect is sincere and genuine.
So next up we have her tag team partner Bethany Kenyon. As of late miss Kenyon you have really been impressing me, the way you have stood up to the Children and refused to back down just like Aerynn, is very impressive indeed. Hell you even took on the gauntlet and won against the Children! You are an impressive young lady and it is good to see you step out of the shadow of your sister. See when I first arrived here you seemed to be taking a back seat to Ashley, for all intensive purposes if I saw a breakout star coming from Kiss when I first arrived, I would have figured it would be Ashley. I am happy to see you prove me wrong, see Miss Kenyon you for me like Aerynn have that old fashioned code of honour in you, that respect for your fellow competitors. I have seen that respect in both of you when I have been in the ring with you in the past and I look forward to taking you both on again.
Freeman nods along and claps, giving the girls a brief but genuine round of applause. But this is soon replaced by a more serious look on the face of Double F, see he has a message to deliver now the admiration for now must come to an abrupt end.
Now girls don’t take this the wrong way but right now, this is where my admiration and respect will have to be put to one side. You see girls in this business what you are remembered from most is the cold hard statistics, the win loss column and if my mission here is to be successful then this contest is must win for me. So that said I will be bringing my all on Monday and make no mistakes about it me and The Silver Baron we will be victorious. It is not personal girls its business and when you add up the facts im afraid the end out come will be the same every time, a win for the Sin City Knights.
The wide confident grin the UWA universe is becoming accustomed to seeing from Freeman is once more etched on his face. To say that he is confident in his and Silver Baron's ability to get the job done, judging by his current demeanour would be a huge understatement.
See girls we have the upper hand in this match, we have unity, togetherness and chemistry in the ring. Me and Baron we are a well oiled smooth running 280 horse power V8 engine. We are undefeated as a tag team and you girls well lets face it in comparison you two are a smart car engine, you don’t stand a chance. See girls we know your in ring game inside and out, we know exactly what to expect from you and how to deliver, answer me honestly can you say you two are in the same place? Can you seriously tell me that you are on the same page? I think not.
More symbolism from Double F now as he again shakes his head from side to side. Anyone seeing him deliver this message can clearly see that he in his heart of hearts knows that the Sin City Knights can and WILL win the battle.
See its rather simple, as of late Aerynn is a loose cannon, you never know which miss Donnelly is going to show up and that anger and that rage that is boiling inside her, that is only going to end in defeat when faced with me and Baron. See we are calm and cool, we are in the best place we have ever been as tag partners and you two, hell have you ever even tagged together?
Freeman places his hands out in front of him in a questioning motion, a motion that that says well have you. Yet at the same time there is an air of confidence in his demeanour, his motions and gestures clearly lead the viewer to the conclusion that in Freeman’s mind even if they have tagged together, even if they have ring chemistry it would not matter because the Knights will still prevail in the end.
Miss Kenyon I know you will be saying, yeah don’t count me out im a tag team specialist, tag team is my game don’t underestimate me. Thing is Bethany your right you are a tag specialist, however on Monday night it is not your brash hot headed sister you have in your corner, it is not the person who's game you know inside out in your corner. No what you have in your corner is a mean and angry Irish lass, someone who is so unpredictable at this moment in time she would prolly just up and leave you to fend for yourself at the mere sight of one of Joshua McBride s Children. Hey I know the UWA fans wont be happy to here me say it but lets face it, the truth hurts and I just hit you all with a dose of brutal honesty.
Freeman gives a shrug and a face gesture that says it all really. See it says hey it had to be said, it says yeah I know its the harsh truth but hey some one had to tell it like it is and as the UWA universe has come to learn, Freeman is not one to shy away from controversial or demeaning comments.
Girls this coming Monday I want you to bring your A game, I want you to give us all you can, because I know that like me you want to give the fans what they deserve to see, I know that you want to give them there moneys worth and I know that you want to honour the code of respect between competitors and you two deserve to be facing us and us you. See I know we are going to put on a great contest, I know that the fans will be treated to something special. Unfortunately for you though girls I know that your efforts to win will be in vain, I know this because I have already beaten both of you inside the ring and lets face that was when I wasn’t even at my methodical best. So Monday night girls you will hit free-fall and be beaten by the Sin City Knights, thee single most dominant tag team UWA has and will ever see! Girls it is simple me and Baron we are on the same page and it is obvious with the tension between you and Aerynn and the rest of your little posse as of late that you two are not. Girls the simple fact is United we conquer divided you hit Free-fall.
Freeman’s huge cat that got the cream smirk is back once again as he does his plane crashing from the sky motion with whistle as it crashes to the ground followed by a boom. Freeman steadies himself and switches to a less serious and more compassionate demeanour.
OK girls now the serious matter at hand has been taken care of I need to make this clear, its not personal its business and that is exactly why on a personal level, you have me in your corner. When it is all said and done and the dust has settled, whether me and Baron are successful or not, if Joshua McBride and his Children show there face I will be stood by your side. See there is no place in this business for people like McBride and I offer you both my services if and when they are required and I am sure Vega will back me up on that!
Fraser Freeman nods his head happy with his words and his offer of support, he truly respects Miss Donnelly and Miss Kenyon and once business is done, he will firmly stand by them if need be and spit in the face of adversity just like he has seen the girls do many times already. The scene fades to black as Freeman walks out of shot.
Freeman: Afternoon B, listen I have been studying our opponents all day, looking at their repertoire and coming up with idea's to combat their go to moves
Freeman is cut of mid sentence.
Silver Baron: Jesus Freeman I thought we covered this already we are on the same page why are you going overkill!
Freeman: Get your head out your arse dude, we haven’t covered ANYTHING yet. Do you want to be the best? Do you want us to make a mark here that cannot and will not be ignored? Because right now you sound like a man that is content to coast, a man who thinks he can get to the top without putting in the effort. Do you want to be embarrassed on Monday Vega!
Freeman is clearly emphasising to Baron at this point that the pair need to get motivated and prepare correctly. He achieves this by simply calling him Vega, this is always the sure fire way to get his attention
Silver Baron: Damn man what crawled up your ass and died? But I do get your point i am willing to listen. What do you think we need to do?
Freeman: We need to train, we need to come up with a game plan and we need to get on it right away!
Silver Baron: Alright, when and where?
Freeman: meet me at Battle Zone gym in an hour and B clear your diary for the next 24 hours its going to be a long session!
Freeman hangs up the phone and goes straight back to reviewing his notes with an intense look on his face.

I want that respect brought back, I want that code of honour between skilled warriors and I will be damned if I am going to let some delusional psychotic egomanical cult leader run ruff shot around here for much longer without stepping in and looking the demon directly in the eyes without so much as a flinch!
The silver Baron chuckles to himself, whilst at the same time nodding in agreement with Freeman about what needs to be done.
Silver Baron: Jeez. and they call me the one with few screws loose. But listen, focus on the task at hand. first time in a while since we have been in the same match, and I want them to remember why we won our big début, and why every time we have.

A little over a month ago you all saw Vince sneak attack me, he assaulted me when I wasn’t expecting it, hell he hit me with a damn baseball bat and mowed me down with his car! Introducing him to the protector, you could say that was well planed comeuppance and no more than what he had coming!
The smirk of confidence on Freemans face shows he is pleased with the outcome of his attack. See to him he did no wrong, he was simply giving Vince Jones what he deserved by giving him a dose of his own tactics.
Plus I thought it was about time I introduced the world to my solider in arms, see the protector is here to fight the good fight, he is here to help me eliminate the evil that lurks the corridors of this company. We will do what is necessary to bring the code of honour that has long been missing in this industry back to life. See I remember when I first started in this business, you had respect for your fellow competitors, you had respect for there skill and warrior like mentality, we were all brothers in arms outside of the ring. Fast-forward to present day and that honour and respect is gone, now you get cult leaders who brainwash masses of people into creating havoc and mayhem and taking out hard working competitors just because you can. Then you get the bitter and angry maniacs like Vince who attack people whenever they like just to get the upper hand or to try and show that the loss they suffered meant nothing.
There is a calmness to Freeman in his voice, yet at the same time there is a tone of disdain, a tone that makes it obvious to anyone hearing it he clearly has deep seated hatred for the individuals he is speaking about.
See guys your not fooling anyone, your not pulling the wool over the eyes of the many, we all see you for what you are, we all see you as weak manipulators and cowards who take the easy route to get to the top. Me on the other hand, I have worked hard my entire career to get where I have and I have always been held down by people like you, I have been ambushed by groups of brainwashed stooges, I have been attacked by jealous psychopaths many times, so dont think your the first. In the past I have stuck to my morals and not retaliated, I have took the moral high ground and refused to stoop to their level. That all changed when I arrived here in UWA. See I realised that to beat people like that you do indeed have to drop to there level. That said I have found out the hard way, that you can not do this the same way they do, you can simply achieve getting one over on this type of individual by meeting their rage and aggression with the same attitude. No from now on I will do it my way, I will do it with calmness and precision. See there is an old adage in war, cold steel always beats hot steel. What does this mean I hear you say? Let me tell you all, see when you attack with rage and anger you are full of adrenaline you are all pumped up, this makes your attacks jerky and uncontrollable. Now see on the contrary if you come up against someone who is calm and collected they will simply use your heavy handedness to there advantage and that my friends is exactly what I will do from now on. See I will not show any remorse for my actions. inside the ring I am a competitor, a warrior I do what needs to be done to succeed.
Freeman smirks confidently once more as he nods his head in agreement with himself, he beats his hand on his chest and raises it above his head. This is a sign to the viewer, this is a message be it a non verbal one, see this gesture signifies to the viewer that Freeman will battle with his heart and soul and do whatever is necessary to get the job done.
See I have neglected my meticulous planning, I have neglected my strongest asset as of late, my in ring intelligence and let me tell you all no doubting it one bit, it is back and it's back with a vengeance. See I will no longer crumble in the face of a challenge, no I will meet each of my opponents from this moment froward with an air of complete calm. Each blow I strike will cut with the might of a thousand swords and I WILL get back to winning ways, it is only a matter of time.
Once more there is a smirk of confidence on the face of Fraser Freeman as he looks down at the watch on his wrist. He points at it with his other hand smirk still etched on his face. This is a symbol that he truly believes that his time is coming, this is a signal to the viewer that it is indeed only a matter of time till he climbs back up the ladder of success.
That brings me to my opponents for this weeks Mayhem, Aerynn Donnelly and Bethany Kenyon. Two mightily impressive young laddies that have been making somewhat of a name for themselves as of late. Firstly we have Aerynn, the World Champion, a woman who many wrote off as a paper champion, the woman who some even called a joke and look at her now, look what she has achieved. Aerynn has single handedly proven her doubters wrong, she has stood tall and strong against adversity and spat directly in its face! Aerynn Donnelly you to me are a worthy champion, you have my utmost respect. You are standing tall alongside your friends taking on McBride and his Children, but see Aerynn I think you are going about it all wrong. I have seen many similarities between you and myself as of late, like me you have been going through emotional stresses, like me you have been struggling to control the anger and rage boiling up inside you and I hate to say it Aerynn you can not beat the Children in this mental state. You need to gain control Aerynn, you need to keep that anger and rage in check, see your response it is exactly what the Children want, they want to throw you off your game, they want you to lose your edge and make you snap. It comes down to what I said earlier, they want you to be the hot steel and they have succeeded. That said I know what it is like to go to the deepest darkest realms of your own mind and I know it is not an easy place to escape. So Aerynn I have an open offer for you, when our match is done, when we have been to war, a war I know will be fought with the code of honour and respect of warriors that I'm keen to see more of, I am here if you want someone who knows all about the emotion and rage your facing, you know where to find me Aerynn im not that hard to find.
Fraser Freeman pulls a business card out of the pocket of his jeans holding it up to the camera, it clearly reads “pleasure dome”. This a symbol for Aerynn to come fins him any time she like at the pleasure dome. It is clear to anyone who heard Freeman speak on Aerynn that his admiration and respect is sincere and genuine.
So next up we have her tag team partner Bethany Kenyon. As of late miss Kenyon you have really been impressing me, the way you have stood up to the Children and refused to back down just like Aerynn, is very impressive indeed. Hell you even took on the gauntlet and won against the Children! You are an impressive young lady and it is good to see you step out of the shadow of your sister. See when I first arrived here you seemed to be taking a back seat to Ashley, for all intensive purposes if I saw a breakout star coming from Kiss when I first arrived, I would have figured it would be Ashley. I am happy to see you prove me wrong, see Miss Kenyon you for me like Aerynn have that old fashioned code of honour in you, that respect for your fellow competitors. I have seen that respect in both of you when I have been in the ring with you in the past and I look forward to taking you both on again.
Freeman nods along and claps, giving the girls a brief but genuine round of applause. But this is soon replaced by a more serious look on the face of Double F, see he has a message to deliver now the admiration for now must come to an abrupt end.
Now girls don’t take this the wrong way but right now, this is where my admiration and respect will have to be put to one side. You see girls in this business what you are remembered from most is the cold hard statistics, the win loss column and if my mission here is to be successful then this contest is must win for me. So that said I will be bringing my all on Monday and make no mistakes about it me and The Silver Baron we will be victorious. It is not personal girls its business and when you add up the facts im afraid the end out come will be the same every time, a win for the Sin City Knights.
The wide confident grin the UWA universe is becoming accustomed to seeing from Freeman is once more etched on his face. To say that he is confident in his and Silver Baron's ability to get the job done, judging by his current demeanour would be a huge understatement.
See girls we have the upper hand in this match, we have unity, togetherness and chemistry in the ring. Me and Baron we are a well oiled smooth running 280 horse power V8 engine. We are undefeated as a tag team and you girls well lets face it in comparison you two are a smart car engine, you don’t stand a chance. See girls we know your in ring game inside and out, we know exactly what to expect from you and how to deliver, answer me honestly can you say you two are in the same place? Can you seriously tell me that you are on the same page? I think not.
More symbolism from Double F now as he again shakes his head from side to side. Anyone seeing him deliver this message can clearly see that he in his heart of hearts knows that the Sin City Knights can and WILL win the battle.
See its rather simple, as of late Aerynn is a loose cannon, you never know which miss Donnelly is going to show up and that anger and that rage that is boiling inside her, that is only going to end in defeat when faced with me and Baron. See we are calm and cool, we are in the best place we have ever been as tag partners and you two, hell have you ever even tagged together?
Freeman places his hands out in front of him in a questioning motion, a motion that that says well have you. Yet at the same time there is an air of confidence in his demeanour, his motions and gestures clearly lead the viewer to the conclusion that in Freeman’s mind even if they have tagged together, even if they have ring chemistry it would not matter because the Knights will still prevail in the end.
Miss Kenyon I know you will be saying, yeah don’t count me out im a tag team specialist, tag team is my game don’t underestimate me. Thing is Bethany your right you are a tag specialist, however on Monday night it is not your brash hot headed sister you have in your corner, it is not the person who's game you know inside out in your corner. No what you have in your corner is a mean and angry Irish lass, someone who is so unpredictable at this moment in time she would prolly just up and leave you to fend for yourself at the mere sight of one of Joshua McBride s Children. Hey I know the UWA fans wont be happy to here me say it but lets face it, the truth hurts and I just hit you all with a dose of brutal honesty.
Freeman gives a shrug and a face gesture that says it all really. See it says hey it had to be said, it says yeah I know its the harsh truth but hey some one had to tell it like it is and as the UWA universe has come to learn, Freeman is not one to shy away from controversial or demeaning comments.
Girls this coming Monday I want you to bring your A game, I want you to give us all you can, because I know that like me you want to give the fans what they deserve to see, I know that you want to give them there moneys worth and I know that you want to honour the code of respect between competitors and you two deserve to be facing us and us you. See I know we are going to put on a great contest, I know that the fans will be treated to something special. Unfortunately for you though girls I know that your efforts to win will be in vain, I know this because I have already beaten both of you inside the ring and lets face that was when I wasn’t even at my methodical best. So Monday night girls you will hit free-fall and be beaten by the Sin City Knights, thee single most dominant tag team UWA has and will ever see! Girls it is simple me and Baron we are on the same page and it is obvious with the tension between you and Aerynn and the rest of your little posse as of late that you two are not. Girls the simple fact is United we conquer divided you hit Free-fall.
Freeman’s huge cat that got the cream smirk is back once again as he does his plane crashing from the sky motion with whistle as it crashes to the ground followed by a boom. Freeman steadies himself and switches to a less serious and more compassionate demeanour.
OK girls now the serious matter at hand has been taken care of I need to make this clear, its not personal its business and that is exactly why on a personal level, you have me in your corner. When it is all said and done and the dust has settled, whether me and Baron are successful or not, if Joshua McBride and his Children show there face I will be stood by your side. See there is no place in this business for people like McBride and I offer you both my services if and when they are required and I am sure Vega will back me up on that!
Fraser Freeman nods his head happy with his words and his offer of support, he truly respects Miss Donnelly and Miss Kenyon and once business is done, he will firmly stand by them if need be and spit in the face of adversity just like he has seen the girls do many times already. The scene fades to black as Freeman walks out of shot.
