Why am I here? The only reason I agreed to this match is the simple fact that Thaddeus Duke wanted it. That and the fact I am going into this representing CULT all the way. I know what I am getting into when it comes to this. Been in the XWF far too long. I am gonna come in and show them the violence. Show them that Warrior Soul I have. Since I left this place, I went to CULT and become their World Champion in less than a year.
What was I really doing here? Other than spinning my tires and getting frustrated. I know that Goddess Diana is watching over me. That I still got something left in the tank. The fans in the XWF can boo me all they want. I don't belong here. I am a freak when you think about it.
I stepped into CULT and was welcomed almost immediately. Yeah, I had a rough couple of months before I gained my bearings. The XWF Universe doesn't need me and its fine. I walked out of Wet Hot American Wrestling the New World Champion at 40 years old. Now, I gotta do my best to bring the prestige I know I can to that belt.
Just hope you don't get lost in that Rainier Fog, Duke. I have no problem hurting you. The one thing I will say is I respect you even if you are a crumb bum. You have built a nice legacy here. So did I at one point. At one point, I lived and breathed this place. But guess what, That time is over for me. You got in the Hall Of Legends and are a multi-time champion.
I have my legacy here and will probably never make it into the Hall OF Legends here but that's okay with me. I just drift inside that Rainier Fog though and come out feeling refreshed. Just take a look at my track record inside CULT right now. In six matches, I managed to topple Sunshine The Dragon and become the New World Champion. 3-3 record but who really keeps track of that?
I get to come back here one more time. Who knows if I come back after this. You wanted my 300th match? You got it. No rest for the wickedness in my soul. I gotta finish what I started here and that is to show Thaddeus Duke and management that I am not the same person. I planned on putting CULT on the map and if that means getting every single person in the arena to hate me. Then so be it.
I am gonna make Casanova English proud. I am a proud deathmatch specialist. I have crafted my arts very well. This isn't a video game like Tekken 7. Yeah its fun and crack all the jokes you want. I may be built like Bob but I am gonna crush this Leo clone like nothing. You gotta be the dumbest man in existence though but I can give you credit. Most people sitting at the broadcast booth wouldn't be willing to step into the ring with me.
You got a family to go home to. I don't so it doesn't matter what happens to my body in the ring. You could've taken the easy way out by collecting those fat stacks sitting in the booth. Convincing everyone that you are a good color commentator but guys like us. We need the ring to keep going. I'm gonna demolish you for fun and bring the violence you don't expect.
I can feel the darkness around me and its okay. I was put on this earth to deliver some earth shattering damage to people. I've done that. My soul will never truly recover from this but its okay. I can take it. I know Goddess Diana is watching over me and I look at that deck for the one card left to draw. The Wheel Of Fortune. That shows I got the luck on my side and I gotta remain vigilant of what you may try to pull.
This is a winnable battle and we shall see what fate has to say. I gotta be that evil man in this environment. I am who I am at the end of the day. You wanted this match and you got it. But at what cost? You chose to come into my element. Open Challenge or not? It didn't matter. I knew you wanted me again for another match.
Only difference is there is no pressure this time on me. Win or Lose, I am still the CULT New World Champion. I sacrificed a bit of my vacation in Rainier for this. Was enjoying the beer of the state and getting drunk with Bob again. Now, I gotta hit a gym in that state and it sucks trying to exercise when there was some serious drinking planned.
So for that, I am gonna kick your ass in front of the XWF Universe. Than I am gonna hop on another plane back to Rainier and continue my vacation. Doesn't matter if I am bleeding or not. I see you as nothing more than a piece of crud. You may have won more belts and have all these accolades. Newsflash. Nobody got hard watching a Thaddeus Duke match. They got hard during my matches for the sheer brutality of it all. Watching me do my thing is like watching a car crash up close and personal. A violent horror show that appeals to the sickest of the minds. I love it.
I hope you are ready for this because I am. I am ready for the bell to ring and this to be over. Then, I am gonna leave the arena and hop back onto another flight back to Rainier and go back to drinking. Long live Goddess Diana. I have a protection aura around me. Standing out in the moonlight with all those candles lit calling to her. I have accepted her protection.
What can you do to me that hasn't already been done?

1970's Disco Heaven
July 23rd 1973
The scene opens up inside of a local disco where we see Jeff Night, dressed in a tie-dyed t-shirt with blue shorts and tan sandals along with a giant peace medallion on his neck. Next to him is Barney Green, dressed in a bright orange leisure suit. Jeff goes to speak over the disco music playing in the background.
Jeff: Great job, Man. I knew you had it in you but you cannot sleep on Thaddeus Duke.
Barney: I know I cannot but I needed guidance in this moment. Thanks for saving me from beyond.
Jeff smiles and goes to speak.
Jeff: It was the least I could do. Besides, You were one of the best students that Foley Anderson ever trained.
Barney takes a swig from the glass and goes to speak.
Barney: I appreciate that. How'd you get Bob's attention like that?
Jeff: Oh, That was easy. Good Vibrations started playing on the radio and he happened to look to see you being kidnapped.
Barney pauses for a moment and goes to speak as Jeff takes a swig from his own glass.
Barney: That explains it. Your favorite song playing on the radio. I just wish Foley Anderson was here.
A figure appears behind Green and goes to speak.
???: Ask and you shall receive.
Barney turns around and sees Foley Anderson, dressed in long black pants with a black t-shirt and black fedora. Barney goes to speak while hugging Foley.
Barney: I can't believe it's you. I hope you are proud of me.
Foley hugs back and then lets go. He goes to speak.
Foley: I am proud of seeing a guy who had very rough skills in the beginning turn into this. I am proud to have been your trainer for all these years. If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't be in this part of heaven right now.
Jeff: Don't be such a downer, Man. This sides awesome. This was when music was at its peak.
Barney spits on his drink laughing and goes to speak.
Barney: I love the night life but not as much as you do. The 1980's was much better in terms of music.
Foley high fives Barney and goes to speak.
Foley: The Barn Man has a point here. Just hope you are prepared for your next battle. I know I can't be around on Earth to give you guidance but know that I am watching.
Foley shakes Barney's hand as Barney goes to speak.
Barney: Time to keep rocking and rolling. I will do everything in my power.
Foley: You better. You are the Champ! I expect you to carry that belt with the prestige and honor it deserves. You are stepping into a battle against a heavy hitter. Just gotta stay strong.
Foley starts to walk off as Barney goes to speak.
Barney: I will not let you down. I still got one last card left in my deck.
Jeff: Yeah, Man. You are carrying our legacies on your back now. Soon, People are gonna forget about me talking up the crowds to see my clients win. It's your job to continue the traditions him and I have set in this business.
Barney takes a swig of beer and goes to speak.
Barney: I just miss you guys so much. You both were instrumental towards my career and I gotta carry it on by myself.
Jeff removes the peace medallion from around his neck and places it around Barney's neck.
Jeff: This will be a good memento to remember me by at least. I owned this for over 40 years.
Barney hugs Jeff as the scene fades to black.
That dream was nice. It was nice seeing two old friends of mine from beyond the grave. I just hope they are looking over what I have accomplished and what I still have left in the tank.
Rainier, WA
September 18th, 2024
The scene opens up inside of a messy hotel room where we see Barney Green, dressed in black shorts with a black t-shirt on and no shoes, laying in bed. Next to him is a half empty bottle of Vodka. Barney slowly awakens and takes a swig from that bottle. He gets up from the bed and we see a peace medallion around his neck.
Barney: Was that dream real or am I slowly losing it?
Barney shakes his head as we see Bob Williams walk out of the bathroom. Bob is dressed in a white t-shirt with black pants and black shoes on. Bob goes to speak.
Bob: Are you okay, Barn? Still wearing that necklace?
The radio turns on and "Good Vibrations" starts playing. Barney goes to speak.
Barney: Yes I am fine and thank you for asking. I think I am gonna hold onto this necklace for awhile. It looks nice.
Bob shuts off the radio as Barney takes another swig of Vodka.
Bob: There's that song again. Somebody must really love the Beach Boys. This is like the sixteenth time i've heard this same song in the last month.
Barney: Its a great song. I just hope we don't get lost in this Rainier Fog coming our way on our flight out to Houston.
Barney walks towards the table and see's a picture of him and Jeff Night strewn about from his bag. Barney quickly puts the photo away.
Bob: So, What is the plan for today?
Barney: The plan is simple. Go to bar and have a few shots than some drunk bowling.
Bob smiles as he goes to speak.
Bob: I'm driving this time around. Don't need you to get another ticket on this trip.
Barney: That cop was wrong though. The fire hydrant just appeared out of nowhere.
Barney takes another swig of vodka as Bob goes to speak.
Bob: We are lucky you weren't drunk during that accident.
Barney: Yeah. You are right on that one.
Barney sits on the edge of the bed and puts his shoes on as we see Bob reach into the refrigerator and pull out a can of beer. He cracks it open and takes a swig of it. Barney goes to speak again.
Barney: I'm sorry that our trip got interrupted by this match. I forgot about it but we can come right back to Rainier after its over.
Bob lets out a belch and goes to speak.
Bob: Its all good. I get to go to a wrestling event that my best friend is performing in and watch you do your thing in that ring. This is a great trip. Besides, You had to pay for that mishap.
Barney starts laughing as the scene fades to black.
