-- Unstoppable I [V.I. Joint] --
"Fight like there's no tomorrow!" [Unstoppable II][Ev The Great]
"I've got nothing to lose and everything to gain Sister!"
Ev The Great's voice cut through the air as she finally spoke up.Her voice cut through the silence as we came into focus. It was going to be one great fight against a woman who you could possibly be called the new archangel of God Almighty in Sister Catherine. A woman who had burst onto the scene in her own right and quickly made a name for herself. She was shocking, controversial, and triumphant. A star in the making. Ev had her work cut out for her and she knew it as she gritted her teeth as the picture came into focus and stood before us antsy as she paced back and forth. She continued on.
"Sister, I'm playing with house money, and I might as well throw all my chips into the middle of the table and go for broke because I'm on my last leg.Then again, you Sister, you, you're not a gambling woman. Not by a long shot and I respect that I do. Me, I am, I gamble each and every night I step foot inside the ring because I'm forced to bet on myself and win or lose lay all the chips on the table with a strong believe that I'll come out on top. Sometimes it works out, other times not so much but that's the price you pay when you cast your lots and roll the dice. It's the risk you take, and I knew full well when I hit the scene here in MSW opened my big mouth and made a bold statement like I did that there'd be consequences. Consequences that I'd have to be willing to handle, to be questioned, to be second guessed, to be looked down upon, even scoffed at. Hell my own partner in crime Sister, my own runnin' buddy, my ace in the hole, my best friend, is imploring for me to refocus and get my head out the clouds. Still even in falling short to Emma Douglas, I haven't lost the faith in myself that it takes to make such a bold statement but my energies, my sights, are set solely on our date with destiny this Saturday night Sister Catherine. See we're on different paths. While many see you as trending upwards and onwards to great heights I'm on the brink of ruin. Everything could all come crashing down if you make good on your words forcing me to tap out to God on Unstoppable. I might as well be cooked. But..."
Unfortunately for Ev she'd fallen short in her debut match and she'd already caused a great stir with her boasting that she wanted to break barriers, that she wanted to take on the Missouri State Wrestling Champion Frankie Cocheese. It had ruffled feathered... Many believed that it was demeaning to the Women of Honor division. Ev hadn't intended for a fire storm of controversy to happen but even in our best intentions things can often go awry. Even smirked as she continued on.
"If I win on Saturday night, I upset one of the fastest rising young stars in the biz right now, I avoid tapping out to God Almighty, and being brought down by this damned avenger stalking the halls of MSW. I avoid bottoming out after such lofty and bold claims as gunning for "the man" Frankie Cocheese. One victory, I'm back on the good foot, I right the ship, I can hold my head high, I can move forward. Sister, defeating you come Saturday night means that I can redeem myself."
Ev The Great clasps her hands together in the praying hand gesture.
"Emma, said I wasn't ready yet and after the last Unstoppable, she might have a point as I fell in defeat at her hands but this Saturday night Sister, this is what I call the road to my redemption. See, you call yourself damned, you say that I myself am damned if I don't repent of my greed and ambition. Sister Catherine in this business you're going to find that to get ahead, to taste just a little bit of glory, and have your fun in the sun that you're going to have be ambitious, you're going to have to have a slight streak of greed in you. How I see it Sister, all I've got to do is go out and fight like there's no tomorrow. Throw all caution to the wind, and go out with reckless abandon and give it everything that I've got because if I lose no big deal, just another L as I continue to tumble, down, down, down."
Ev points down before she continues on.
"If I win, no when I win though, I'm right back in the thick of things Sister, right back on top where I know deep down inside where I belong. And not so that I stake my claim to the top prize in all of Missouri State Wrestling. (Ev shakes her head with a smile on her face.) No good Sister, so that I can begin my march through the Women of Honor division and show all my peers just what Ev The Great's truly made of. All for the simple fact that regardless of what other people might think of what I said the truth is that I have the utmost respect for all of the women in Missouri State Wrestling but that I've always been a bit of a rebel. A renegade if you will who gave my Mama more than her fair share of gray hairs. Who pushed the envelope, tested boundaries, who constantly asked why? When someone or conventional wisdom, or popular belief said that I couldn't do something, or that I had to do things a certain way. See, personally I don't believe that I'm spitting in the face of the Women of Honor division, I've got no issue wrestling for the Women's Championship, I've got no issue wrestling your crusading ass, or Emma Douglas, or any other fine talented women the powers that be throw my way because I believe that I'm truly great. That I can take on all comers and take them down in that ring. Be man or woman. That is what I believe Sister, or anyone else who took exception to my initial words here in MSW. Truly, I'm sorry, I meant no offense, I didn't mean to step on any toes, and it's my goal too make it right. It's my goal to fight the good fight, too fight to continue to bolster the Women of Honor division from here on out and not worry about delusions of grandeur where I'm the face that runs this place. No, I'm Sister, I'm just going to go out Saturday night, and wrestle with God and get my blessing just like Jacob in the good book. I know I might be battle weary, battered, bruised, and it will take a part of me in the end it will be worth it. See, Sister you might be damned, you might be looking to take down as many people as you can with you as you look to purify the halls of MSW but this Saturday night in that ring. I'm going to stand my ground, I'm going to take the fight straight too you, I'm going to go down too the pit, and I will be good as golden as I will be refined by the fire, and I will stand tall triumphant. And I will say that I didn't tap out to God, no, I wrestled with God, and won."
With that we cut out and fade to black.
