●Sangue contro sangue● [unstoppable ii]

●OUT OF CHRACTER● Here is the second one, same message towards my opponent as last time
●NEXT MATCH● versus Tamara Marie Rose

●Well. Tamara Marie Rose. The fiery redhead that everyone came to see, well if you believed in the rumours going around on the Internet. Making her upcoming opponent believe that she was the so called underdog, yeah folks it is true. Shawna Martinez, mSw's current Womens Champion, did not see herself in the Main Spot. Or once again that was just some speculation done by people that had zero idea bout the wrestling business. How do you win matches? With arrogance, the attitude of a superstar. So why would the leading lady not feel that way? It was rather simple, even though it took a lifetime to figure it out. She was not finished. Like a cake that still did need several more minutes, the Bella Mafia girl did highly believe there was still a way to set the bar higher. Tamara Marie Rose got handed an epic chance, maybe a once in a lifetime chance. Did the champion believe that lady luck could probably decide to fuck her over? Indeed. But there was something else that could even out the odds, hunger. Tam wanted to prove herself, Shawna already did that night after night. Her opponent wanted to step out of a shadow that was indeed huge, fill shoes that were impossible to fill. So while the days did fade away, the mood did change. From excited and interested to urgent and restless. Shawna loved that feeling, but was not sure if Tamara had ever felt it. Not taking away anything from the girl she hardly knew, but in the end there would be only winner. And if this was indeed the era of Blood, Shawna had already made the right bet. I came to prove the world wrong, not to let it crash in front of my eyes. Believe in that.●

●Sangue contro sangue●
[official mSw promo]

We do what we do best, right? That was what most did believe in, a rule Shawna Martinez went by. For example she would make a terrible dancer, so she would live that field to others that could move to a rythm. But then again that did not mean that she was not able to learn the right steps, for the right time. Drifting off the subject though, there was one thing she was the best at. Beating up people, ripping them another hole.- so to say. So why changing your ways? Exactly. It was possible to feed off a previous victory, but after a while it did get boring. The same with all the great things you might have done, who did care? This was a new chapter, an empty white page. Most did realize by now that there were two sides to that young female, maybe more. One that was friendly and caring, the other that would stop at nothing when it came to standing in the ring. She signed a contract with this company to deliver every time she entered that ring, keep that in mind. That message was meant for whoever decided to step next in line, oh yeah Tamara Marie Rose. For the moment one had to wonder what made her special, why she was chosen above anyone else. Her style? Well other females had a style that came close, or maybe was exact the same. Her reputation? That did seem more like the truth. But then again Shawna was no one to hang onto bitter feelings, a lesson that even Kat Jones had learnt by now. So what was it in the end? Maybe the name? Maybe not, but then again there was one thing certain to say. Shawna Martinez did not like Roses, not one bit. So whenever receiving them, she would not even bother smelling them. In the end they were meant to fade, die before you could enjoy them enough. So what you do with them? Let em grow in the nature, or simply put them in the trash.

She followed a strict routine, always. Even when not being signed to a place, if you wanted to live that life.- you had to really live it. So it was no different today, when she had arrived at the local mSw gym. They would already greet her from a far, well no surprise after all she came on a daily base. Mostly along with Frank, but then again her was currently out of action.- or at least should be. Did she know he cheated and still went to train, of course. It was hard to hide something from her, especially as this person was a good observer. She had already done about two hours of cardio and bench pressing, as she noticed the cameras for the first time. Of course they wanted to give the fans some backstage peeks every now and then, which was something she did understand. And although it was annoying at points, that was what you do sign up for when becoming a public person. When they decided to head into her direction she was putting her towel asside, giving a friendly smile to the camera guy. Hey, he was just doing his job. Seriously.

Camera Guy: ''Hey Shawna... .''

Shawna Martinez: ''Hey... ,'' Well she did not really know his name, so a simple Hey had to do the job. ''Quite busy here today, huh?''

Camera Guy: ''Yeah. But then again it mostly is, you shall know. I was wondering if you wanted to get some on air time, adressing your upcoming match against Tamara.''

The grin on his face was somehow shy, which was probably the thing that made him somewhat sympathic. In a slow manner the hot blonde would nod her head, lifting herself off of the bench. It was for moments like that, why she came dressed in one of her ring suits. Sweat pants would not really do the job, not for representing the company. They would take another few moments to get the right focus, giving her the sign to get started.



Shawna Martinez: ''Yeah folks, that would be me again. It seems like we have more dates than i can ever have with Frank, so lets make this count. As you can see we are at the local gym, one that mostly gets used by mSw superstars. But to be really honest with you, it is a free for all thing going on here.  I gotta excuse myself for being lightly sweaty, but that happens when you wanna stay in shape. There is no space for fake lashes or perfect make up, at least not when it comes to me. Of course i could waste hours for prettying myself up, but what for? What you see is what you get, always. While i could ramble on and on about the difference between myself and other females, i guess it is pretty obvious. I take what i do very serious, no matter if you see me perform in the ring or having a workout like today. You can not live up to your own expectations whe you get lazy, too comfortable. And that is what most expect when you win the so called big one, that you enter the comfy zone. Running around, acting like you are the big shit. Do not get me wrong, I have my moments.- but that has nothing to do with me being the Champion. But at the end of the day i am girl like every other, unless you count reaching your limits as something special. Then i am far from being your everyday girl. When you take a look around this place, you see it is nothing fancy. No futuristic machines or stuff like that, just the basics. Cause at the end of the day that is all you need, all that matters. Before I forget it though, a big shout out to Peyton and Marie.- you guys get the job done. I will watch first row, cause i know you guys will make it happen. Again. To my little girl Marizzle, damn right i deserve it. But then again so does every female that works hard and is willing to put it al on the line. So lets be a bit melodramatic and dedicate my title win to all of you ladies, make it one hell of a ride.''

A short pause followed that motivation speech, where she was not sure to whom she really did dedicate it. Maybe everyone or no one, it was never all too clear. When she looked back into the camera, her fingers ran through those silky blonde locks. Shoving them back over her shoulders, while the look on her face became somehow serious. But that was always the case when she spoke about business, cause it meant the world to her.

Shawna Martinez: ''I guess i was just training my Emmy Award winning speech there, sorry about that. But you realize one thing, it is not all fun and games. I have been saying that in the past, cause it is what i believe. In the end I will always tell it like it see it, there is no way around that. I got a so called huge challenge in front of me, so why am I not shaking? Why are my nerves not about being torn apart? Good questions. Much to my own dismay i can not really answer them, well not in an easy way. I have had several days time to check on my opponent, yeah I haven't forgotten about Tamara Marie Rose. And honey you can believe me when i tell you this, I really used that time well. To look into some of your old matches, getting to know what you are capable of. But then again I will not know till we enter that ring, that is what I tell myself. Do not get me wrong, you probably have ripped the pople a new hole.- but that does not kick me out of my shoes. There is a certain thing in this industry that we all have heard of. Hype. Some work their whole life to receive it, others just appear and get it handed. But there is a problem when it comes to hype, it is nothing but an illusion. I mean i can easily hype my Shampoo bottle if i want to, go figure. You are what the company wants you to be, follow the ideas they have for you. So do not feel too safe, cause at a certain moment in your life.- not all the hype can help you anymore. It can give you wings, but only till someone comes around the corner ripping them off. And in the case of our match, that someone is me. It is not that I have had planned any of this, but you could say like every other Alpha.- i mark my territory. And that is exactly what i see when entering the mSw ring, my playground. My yard. And come Unstoppable you step inside that, crossing the lines that should not be crossed.''

Noises. In the backround. Outside the building. Caused by people, which for a moment did throw her off the topic. While Shawna took her time to rethink her next word, the camera guy was checking the area. Several other mSw superstars were working out, or simply making idiots of themselves. Including people like Bane, who seemed to have some sort of a push up contest with a rookie. Poor thing. Really. Shawna did not resist the urge to grin, sometimes it was awesome to be part of this crazy family. Well most of the time.

Shawna Martinez: ''You see Tamara there is another thing that comes with Hype, great Expectations. People see you and they put you in a role, one you maybe are not capable to play. They hear all this stuff about you, yet they seem to fail to realize where we are. This is not just any place, this is Missouri State Wrestling. I could babble all day long about how awesome that place is, but we already know that. And so do the fans. They pay their hard earnt money to see the best and that is what we give them. No mediocre. Not mainstream shit. Leave alone trashtalking wannabes that are not welcome anywhere else. When i say mSw, I really mean every person on the roster. Cause you gotta realize one thing baby girl, when you got so many people waiting for you to let it all out.- there a thousand things that can go wrong. Did you ever consider that you might not be able to live up to their fantasy? That all your dreams shatter with just one wrong move, cause I can let you in on a secret. I have been considering that. And I still do. That is the reason why when someone pushes me, I make sure i push back twice as hard.  So while the world knows that about me, what do we really know about you? That you can kick major ass, noted. That you have been in many matches, shining like a real star. But what else? What makes you special love? Wait, that maybe does not sound very friendly. Cause we are all special in our own way, so i maybe should rephrase that. What makes you worth it, that people put their hope in you? I think that sounds way better and is exactly the question I meant to ask. Maybe the same thing everyone else is wondering about, but then again I speak about things that remain on my mind. You darling are a constant thing on my mind, which is more than I give to most people. Cause it is not part of the job, so maybe you hit the jackpot.''

There was a certain change in her mood, nothing she could put in words. Once agai some people would see it as being cocky.- or probably pure arrogance. But those were strangers, they had no idea about her personality. She was always confident when it came to her abilities, nothing more but for sure nothing less either. Shawna went as far as rolling her eyes, putting both her hands on either side of her body.



Shawna Martinez: ''But shall we be serious again, leave all the catchphrases and childish behaviour aside. I am more than thrilled meeting you inside the ring, seeing what you are made of. The mystery that no one will ever understand or whatever it is you said. All this might be true, but i am not one for fantasy and mystery. I am more a fan of the reality, hence why they often would refer to me as the Reality Check. This is no Marvel Comic, although you easily could become their new hero. Of course we already have one, yeah Peyton you really fit that picture too well. I gotta state it for all of the single girls out there, which I am not, but you should so try to get a hold of the boy. He is free last I heard. Okay enough of me making promotion for the Von Licht boy, not that he needs it. But you do realize one thing Tamara? I am not someone that is greedy to have the spotlight.- it just happens when you do a good job. And that is all they signed you for, do a good job. I am sure you can, I am sure you will. And maybe you will climb the ladder faster than anyone else, but then you gotta do one more thing. Stay on top of it. Not allowing anyone to shake it, cause otherwise you will fall to the ground quicker than you can say perdente. I have no doubt you got thousand of things to say and they shall not be overheard. I will always be there to listen and that is a promise from me to you. But since i feel really good today, I promise you one more thing. No matter what happens at our match, you have won one thing already. My Attention. I could have said my respect, but that is something you have to earn. I do respect what you represent, but all that comes above that.- you gotta prove. And just so we do not understand each other wrong, they might choose you. They maybe praise you already, but there is one thing we have learnt from history channel. Even heroes fail at points. The truth is bitter, but you can always swallow it with proving them wrong.''

Shawna then decided to take a deep bow, like it was the most natural thing to do. She had already turned herself around, but peeking back over her shoulder. There was the nice smile again, the one that was described as inviting and dangerous at the same time.

Shawna Martinez: ''In the end it does not matter what stories they make up about us, it will be always Blood versus Blood. Yours against Mine. At Unstoppable we will find out which is thicker.''
