Tag Team Match
Mascara Muerto vs Anton Chase and Brock Whitworth

Deadline: 6-3-14 at Midnight CST

[Deleted]

(The scene opens up and we are in a locker room, it has the room filled with lockers, and a couple of bench's to sit on scattered around the room, as we zoom in we see Anton Chase, sitting on the bench next to an open locker, Anton is wearing some black gym shorts, and looks like he has been working out)

Anton Chase: This week is a very important week for me, not only do I perform on a pay-per-view for PWX, but I am in a tag team match, now tag team wrestling has never been a thing for me, it has never gone well. But this is different, you see my tag partner is Brock Witworth, and Brock and I have faced off against each other in the past, his a formidable opponent. But as a tag team, we would be unstoppable.

(Anton grins)

Anton Chase: You see myself and Brock are facing the team of Mascara Muerto, two wrestlers under the mask, a team all about Lucha Libre wrestling, but you see, Mascara Meurto may be a more co-operative team than myself and Brock, but that doesn't matter, because I don't need my handsome face to hide under a mask to perform for the world, unlike the pair of you. I don't even know why I am in this tag team match anyway, I should be fighting for a championship.

(Anton looks to the side as the camera pans around)

Anton Chase: Why is Jason Richards even fighting for the Hybrid championship? Jason Richards has been my bitch since the first time we meet in a ring, he seems to follow me everywhere, Warped, FGA, PWX, where will he follow me next is the only question. And yet I'm stuck in a tag team match, seriously? As much as it cringes me knowing that Jason Richards is fighting for the Hybrid championship, but knowing him, he'll lose his nerves.

(Anton laughs)

Anton Chase: As for this tag team match, I'm not worried about our opponents, I'm more concerned with my tag partner, Brock Witworth. Now Brock I know we've faced off against each other recently, and that was in the past. I'm sure we can co-operate and work together, beat these two assholes, and then we can go our different ways. But if you have any ideas of betraying me, think again. You can see how the talent has been skinned alive and left the door once they tried to drill my skull open, they all left because they knew what was going to happen. Just think about that, so Brock at Civil War, you and I are a team, we can win this easily.

(Anton laughs as the scene ends)

The scene comes up on Brock Whitworth in the Las Vegas Wrestling School. He is lifting some weights, trying to stay in shape for the upcoming PPV when El Guapo runs up, phone in hand. He is out of breath, and looks shocked. Brock quickly drops the weights as his friend makes his way towards Brock.

El Guapo: Hijo! You’ll never believe what I just heard! I mean, we could argue it, or at least protest, but who knows what’ll happen if we do that! I’ve never been in this situation before! My goodness those….

Guapo gets into several colorful Spanish words as he turns a bright shade of red. Brock, unable to comprehend what’s happening in front him, just begins to laugh, which only makes El Guapo more mad. Finally, as El Guapo looks like he’s about to burst a blood vessel, Brock settles him down. In between chuckles, Brock tries to get to the bottom of the situation.

Brock: OK Guap, very slowly now: What exactly is going on, and why are you about to die over it?

El Guapo takes a deep breath, trying to collect his thoughts before explaining himself.

El Guapo: I just got off the phone with PWX. They’ve put you back in the card for the PPV, in a tag team match.

Brock signals El Guapo to continue with the story.

El Guapo: Naturally, I was interested in who your partner was. And this is the kicker here. It’s Anton Chase.

Brock shrugs. He doesn’t see a problem with this.

Brock: So you’re telling me that I have to carry a whole team all by myself? OH NO GUAP! It’s not like I’ve NEVER done that before! Sure, Anton’s a pain, and I can whip him from here to next week, but if you think that will honestly bother me as soon as the bell rings then you don’t know me as well as you claim to.

El Guapo shakes his head.

El Guapo: I just don’t know hijo. With all of the shit-slinging you and Anton did the last time you two shared a ring, I’m just worried you won’t be as ready as a real team. But anyway, we can argue semantics later. Kara and your Mother are waiting outside to go to the press conference for PWX. Get ready ASAP hijo, we’ll be waiting.

Brock: For sure. Be there in a second.

The scene fades out as Brock heads to the showers.



The scene comes back up on a podium in front of a large PWX logo. El Guapo heads up to it, dressed in a suit. Many reporters hold up microphones and recorders, hoping to catch all the latest PWX gossip. Guapo clears his throat before beginning his introduction.

El Guapo: Ladies and Gentlemen, at this time it is an honor a privilege to introduce to you one of the brightest stars in PWX today. He stands here before you with his Mother, Hannah, and sister, Kara. Looking to return to his winning ways, please welcome, The Pride of Brisbane, Brock Whitworth!

Brock, Hannah, and Kara all walk up the steps together as reporters get out their notepads and begin jotting down details and questions to ask the young wrestler. Brock takes the stand from El Guapo as Kara and Hannah stand off to the side, beaming with pride at their family. The reporters clamor for attention as Brock begins to speak.

Brock: I just want to start out by thanking my Mum and sister for the amount of support and love they’ve given me since I left them to pursue my career. To have them here is surreal and a total blessing on my life. And although most of the boys in the locker room think the press is a pain, to me it’s just a sign of how far I’ve come. I’m excited and ready to move forward with my career and do my best in my coming matches.

The reporters seem to raise all their hands at once as Brock is left with the daunting task of choosing the first question. As a joke he covers his eyes and points randomly. A young female reporter stands up.

Reporter: Brock, it was noted last week that your scheduled match with Anton Chase did not happen. What’s the reason for that?

Brock: After competing week in and week out both here in the PWX and many other companies around the US, I felt like I needed a hiatus coming into the PPV. With that being said, both Anton and I discussed our views with PWX management and decided that a week off was exactly what we could use. I’ll get my hands on Anton just yet, I’ll assure you that.

The reporters all scribble down the answer before vying for the next question. Brock picks another random hand and an elderly man stands up.

Reporter: Mr. Whitworth, it has come to our attention that this week you will be teaming up with Anton Chase. What’re your thoughts on this development? Will you two be able to work together?

Brock: Listen, I have my Issues with Anton, I’ve never been secretive about them. I’ve beaten Anton before, and the whole world knows that I’m just a better competitor fair and square. So yes, I’ll have to do some extra work, but I know Anton is at least half competent in the ring. At the end of the day, he and I both want another win, so no, I don’t think we’ll have much of a problem picking up the victory this week. It won’t be the most fun I’ve ever had, but I’ve been successful in tag teams with people I hated in the past, so this won’t be much different. The only thing that changes this situation is that I am a much better wrestler than I was a year ago, so Mascara Muerto doesn’t really stand much of a chance in my eyes. That you can bank on.

The young reporter stands up again, with another question

Reporter: So does this mean we could see a possible Whitworth/Chase team in the future?

Brock quickly shakes his head at the idea of a team with Anton Chase.

Brock: Listen for a one time thing, I’m fine with the idea of teaming with Anton. But at the end of the day, I want nothing more than to rip his throat out. You guys call us rivals for a reason. There’s bad blood there, and I think that both Anton and I are professional enough to put those differences aside for one night. But a team? Even God couldn’t give me a reason to like that man. I don’t see any possibility of that happening. You know there are just some guys that you ne-

There is suddenly an audible THUMP on stage. Brock whips around, expecting to see Chase ready to throw down, but instead finds that his Mother, Hannah, has collapsed onto the floor. Kara lets out a scream as Brock springs into action, rushing to Hannah’s side. He lifts her head, and tries to illicit a response from her. After a few seconds, he begins calling for help.

Brock: SOMEONE CALL 911! PLEASE, ANYONE! MUM! MUM, WAKE UP! SOMEONE GET AN AMBULANCE! MUM!?

The scene goes out with Brock holding his Mother, tears streaming down his face.








The scene comes back up on Brock Whitworth, sitting in a lonely hospital room, his Mother by his side, her EKG machine beeping at regular intervals, an IV running from her arm. He looks hurt, but not in a physical way. His anger is deep rooted, emotional. We haven’t seen him like this before.

Brock: So what? You think this will throw me off my game? That I’ve never climbed through controversy before? You don’t know me, and you sure as hell can’t stop me from doing what I love. Everything I do, all that I sacrifice, is done for that woman right there. She is my driving force, my biggest supporter, and my best friend. And come Wednesday night, I’m going to lay everything on the line for her, because I know she wouldn’t have it any other way. So, Anton Chase is a dick, but like I said, he wants what I want. So we’ll put our differences aside and wipe the floor with Mascara Muerto. It’s how it’s been, it’s how it is, and it’s how it always will be. Week after week, month after month, year after year, I’ll compete and give 125 percent until I stop working. It’s what she taught me to do, it’s all I know, and it’s the least I can do. And at the end of the night, Anton and I will walk away with a win, and after that, I’ll clean up my rivalry with him.

Suddenly a doctor walks in the room, looking very somber. He holds a chart in one hand, his glasses in the other. He is absolutely exhausted. Brock perks up at the sight of him.[/color]

Doctor: Mr. Whitworth? You’ll want to come with me. We have some things to discuss about your Mother.

Brock gets up from his chair, rubbing the sleep from his face. He looks back at us.

Brock: I’ll see you Wednesday. And if you don’t believe…..you ain’t seen nothing yet.

With that, Brock walks out of the room, close on the doctor’s heels. The scene fades out.

[Mascara Muerto]

When You Fall, You Get Back Up

As the scene fades in we find the former PWX Tag Team Champions in their usual locker room environment as Muerto can be seen deep in his training regiment of...playing Watchdogs for the Xbox One. Norte is by his side watching him as the two don't seem all that impacted by their previous loss to the Vox Populi which cost them their titles. As Muerto continues to play Norte takes notice of the camera as he pats Muerto on the back and gets up from the couch and wanders over away from Muerto motioning for the camera to follow him which it does. Once Norte finds a spot he likes he turns and faces the camera.

Norte: Well as you can see, and are by now very much aware, we are no longer the tag team champions. Most would think that since losing the titles we have been off sulking somewhere in a corner when the truth is, Muerto likes his down time. In the time we have been gone from the world we have been re-energizing ourselves and getting our heads back to where they needed to be. We made a mistake before and that mistake cost us our titles. We allowed the Vox to get into our heads and make us lose sight of what was really important going into that match. As a result we have since been working to make sure that never happens again with the Vox or anyone else. Which means Mascara Muerto are back and better than ever! Now I'm sure some must question how well we can do in a match when we haven't wrestled in a month, we won't deny that there is some ring rust but what better place to shake it off than at a Pay-Per-View?

Norte pauses for a moment as if expecting someone to chime in with a better spot but all that can be heard is the background noise of Muerto playing Watchdogs.

Norte: Since that night at The Initiative we have gone from being at the top of the PWX Tag Team Division all the way to the bottom and then down some more. After one month we find ourselves back where we started when we first came to PWX. A team that no one thinks much of with a lot to prove to the world. For those that remember we all know how we took advantage of that. Which means now that we've fallen all we've got left to do is to get right back up and climb that ladder again which is exactly what we are going to do! While our contract entitles us to a rematch should we choose to request one, we do not want to take such an easy shortcut to the titles. The titles mean more to us than shortcuts and connections and if we were to take such a shortcut we will do nothing more than tarnish our reputation as ta team wrestlers and tarnish the very reputation of those titles. So no matter how long it takes, what struggles we may find and what obstacles we may face we will climb that ladder to the top once again and mark our words Vox, we will meet again in the ring regardless of who is holding the title and when we do cross paths again we will break the tie once and for all.

Norte motions to his waist that he will have a title around it again before resuming his speech.

Norte: As for our opponents at Civil War Anton Chase and Brock Whitworth we recognize that this will not be an easy fight, we respect both of you as competitors even if you don't think much of us we are used to that and we are used to showing people just how good we are. On a serious note we saw what happened during Brock's press conference and we sincerely hope that his mother recovers quickly. Now for our match, the two of you are without a doubt an odd pairing but wrestling has seen many odd pairings throughout it's history even if some were for one night only we have seen such combinations do either really good, or really bad. For the fans we hope for the former so that we may put on one of the best matches on the card and give those people their money's worth before they even see the main event! Win or Lose the least we can all do is go out there and give it our all until there is nothing left to give and then give some more for the fans and for ourselves! Titles shouldn't have to be on the line for us to do our absolute best! It's what separates us from all the others our willingness to put on a Six star match each and every night regardless of the stipulations. Civil War will be no different and you two will see that first hand when we step in the ring.

Norte glances over to his side towards where Muerto is playing Watchdogs before turning his attention back to the camera.

Norte: See we are back to our old selves, we are at ease in body and mind. Yeah we lost the titles, we messed up, we gave the Establishment the tag team titles but we have accepted that loss and have learned from it so now we just have to start again little by little, piece by piece. We will be tag team champions once again, for this is a certainty! For as long as we have the fans behind us there is no limit to what we can and will accomplish here in PWX. We already beat the odds when we arrived as some unknown rookie team who went all the way to win the titles, and we aim to do that once again just wait and see! At Civil War Mascara Muerto is back! And ready to fight!

Norte looks over towards Muerto once again as he returns to the couch taking a seat next to him trying to grab the controller from Muerto who is refusing to give it up.

Norte: Muerto come on your turn is up I want to play Wolfenstein! Remember it's my Xbox One not yours! You can play some more later when my turn is over now hand over the controller! Come on! Give it back!

Norte and Muerto continue to fight over the controller as the scene fades to black.
