T̷H̷U̷1̷4̷J̷A̷N̷/̷/̷1̷3̷3̷0̷E̷S̷T̷ [REDACTED] shakes hands with both men. Harper seems surprised. [REDACTED] clears the room and then the remaining three take seats. [REDACTED] “Dr. Royce, thank you for coming. And you must be Pete Harper. Regi informed me of your time in the Army. Thank you for your service, sir.” [PETE HARPER] “This is so surreal, sir. When Dr. Royce told me where we were going today, I honestly didn’t believe him.” [REDACTED] “Regi and I go way back. He helped to fund my time at Robert H. McKinney School of Law.” [DR. ROYCE] "Helped fund? I fully funded your education. Then we spent decades working together." [PETE HARPER] "Wait! What?!" [REDACTED] "From 1986 until 2017, I worked for Regi on a number of legal cases." [DR. ROYCE] "Aside from yours truly, he is the longest tenured employee of Devil's Gate. We went to great lengths to scrub any evidence of his work with us prior to being vetted for his current position." [PETE HARPER] "This is incredible." [REDACTED] "Now, Regi, I want you to know you have my word that I will continue with Devil's Gate after next Wednesday. You have my word. That is… if you'll still have me…" [DR. ROYCE] "Of course. I was hoping you could help me with something important before you leave office next week." [REDACTED] "I assumed it was important, having come all this way. How can I be of service?" [DR. ROYCE] "I would like you to issue articles of impeachment to remove Odin Balfore from his position as Action Wrestling United States Champion." [REDACTED] looks shocked. [REDACTED] "I'm not sure that's within my job description." [DR. ROYCE] "What about an executive order?" [REDACTED] "Only one man can do that… and he locked himself in his room with cases of Diet Coke and boxes of Cheetos. He thinks if he never leaves, he'll always be President. I've told him it doesn't work like that but… you know…" [DR. ROYCE] "I warned you about him. Unfortunately our plan to make you President did not come to fruition." [REDACTED] looks at Harper with wide eyes, then back to Royce. [DR. ROYCE] "It's okay. He's my most trusted assistant." [REDACTED] "There may be something I can do or at least someone I can influence to help your cause. Tell me about this Odin character." [DR. ROYCE] "Odin Balfore is considered to be a highly respected veteran of the professional wrestling business. He spent two decades honing his craft all over the world before the opportunity of a lifetime came when he signed with Action Wrestling. Over the last year and a half, his only claim to fame prior to last week... was a fluke reign as World Champion that only lasted twenty days. Three days ago, Odin did the unthinkable. He defeated the seemingly unbeatable… 2020 Wrestler of the Year… Howard Black. It was a moment that shocked the world, much like the insurrection of this great chamber last week. We all knew both incidents were possible but hoped they were improbable. Now that one of the greatest American heroes is no longer champion… the title has unfortunately lost its shine. The parallels to what has happened in Washington D.C. are unbelievable. Two unspeakably evil events occurred that seemingly robbed America of two of its bravest champions: Howard Black and [REDACTED]. Had it not been for Odin Balfore or the insurrectionists… there would surely have been continued prosperity for years to come for both great Americans." [PETE HARPER] "Dr. Royce, you do know that his boss lost a fair and just election… right? It was verified countless times." [REDACTED] "Of course he did. I knew it all along. The problem is… had he not incited a riotous mob last week… Operation Dragonfly would have been activated… ending with me being named President of the United States." [PETE HARPER] "WHAT?!" [REDACTED] "Regi, you're sure he can be trusted?" [DR. ROYCE] “I trust him with my life.” The entire conversation is redacted because every part of it would be treason of the highest order. Die szene wird schwarz. F̷R̷I̷2̷9̷J̷A̷N̷/̷/̷1̷3̷0̷0̷E̷S̷T̷ Ever since the moment Odin Balfore became United States Champion, my primary duty for Devil's Gate has been to comb through countless hours of footage on behalf of Der Metzger. I took detailed notes of his many strengths but also his many weaknesses. Having only seen his most recent matches live, it was educational to look back at some of his less exciting matches. Trust me when I say I was underwhelmed by the overall saga of this likely future Hall of Famer. The gigantic current United States Champion has a long history of being handed fodder for opponents here in Action Wrestling. It is my speculation that the company did this to protect his limited abilities in the ring... while secretly treating him as a glorified sideshow attraction. Log onto the AW Network if you don't believe me. Take a look at matches against the likes of Beau Blaze… James Wolf… Masuda Teijin… Hot Shot Wayne Austin… El Tigre Del Sol. Average performances from a larger than life character. His weaknesses shone bright as the midday sun. Without someone with exceptional skill and seasoning, he is unable to truly captivate the audience or the critics. Sure, he got lucky to be highlighted early on by competing at Execution… facing off against Lockhart… and a series of matches with Walter. I was particularly impressed with this company's attempt at pushing him as "the main event" at the beginning of 2020. As I started up the first Clash of 2020, I still had his prior match with Walter in mind… and they exceeded my expectations. What a rush watching Odin Balfore do the unimaginable by becoming World Champion. Unfortunately… less than three weeks later… his reign ended. Zero successful defenses are going to be an unfortunate trend for Odin Balfore... because his first and only challenger will be the man called Der Metzger. Do you know what other trend will continue for our soon-to-be former United States Champion? For the second year in a row… he will enter Revolution as champion and walk out a sore loser. History has a peculiar way of repeating itself. You may wonder how I can be so damn bold about my observations for a sport I know nothing about. Assuming I know nothing was a bold mistake on your part. Little did you know that I grew up idolizing my cousin, a pro wrestler who was a pretty big deal back in the day. Before I enlisted in the United States Army, he even trained me to follow in his footsteps. My commitments to the Army took me overseas several times before I was medically discharged last year. There is much more to my story that is best saved for another day. The story that matters today is Der Metzger has been on a steady and relentless rampage here in Action Wrestling since day one. Not a soul has come close to putting him down for the count. Claire Hawkins put up a valiant and brave effort. Stuart Slane on his best day could have prevented the terror coming Odin’s way had it actually been his best day. Now Der Metzger is seeing red and Odin is the clown desperately trying to hide in a barrel. That United States Championship itself has made him a meaty target that Der Metzger will eviscerate at Revolution. Odin spent decades building up his legacy… only to come to this place to meander around… waiting for things to fall in his lap. Yeah... he had a blip of success as World Champion… and that’s cool. But then he failed to go back to that place of great prominence. Then he spent the rest of the year showing up when he felt like it… just to do nothing of any value. Der Metzger hit the ground running upon arriving here, and he can’t stop… he won’t stop… until his mission is complete. Part of that mission is to add the United States Championship to his resume. The opportunity has presented itself earlier than Dr. Royce had anticipated but it is a welcoming challenge as we work to rehabilitate Der Metzger. Dr. Royce believes that a championship reign will remind Der Metzger of the honor that goes along with being a champion. At present, Odin knows no honor. All he knows is false promises… diminished spirit… bellowing falsities. He knows America as it is, as it has been, and as it would continue to be under his own reign as champion. Der Metzger at max capacity will be the wind in the sails of progress for this great nation. I fought for years against forces of darkness to preserve the freedoms that Der Metzger will amplify as United States Champion. My fallen brothers and sisters will be looking down with great pride as the man once thought of as “the main event” here in Action Wrestling is put out to pasture by The Maine Event… Der Metzger. Only he can restore the virtue and prestige once associated with that championship. Der Metzger isn't just fighting for Der Metzger. He's also fighting for the likes of TFK... Dandy DiVito... Walter... Spencer Adams... Wesley... Graham Baker... Sam Kidsgrove... and Howard Black. He’s also fighting for the hundreds of thousands of Americans who died from COVID during Odin’s reign of terror as United States Champion. He’s also fighting for the forty million Americans living in poverty while Odin had his hand on the flag pole of justice. Odin’s warped and delusional view of the American Dream is an egregious lie… and he must be stopped. He will be stopped by the man you call Der Metzger, under direction and care of Devil’s Gate Enterprises. Devil’s Gate is nearly complete. [REDACTED] has returned home, and now he can drop the stage name. He was born Richard Michaels, and assumed the name [REDACTED] once he got into the dangerous and deceptive game of politics. Now that he is out of office, he and his wife have moved back to Castle Rock, Maine to continue their work with Devil’s Gate. His company profile can finally be displayed on Devils-Gate.org. Devil's Gate will be hosting a championship celebration planned and it will be yuge. You're all invited. Even Odin Balfore. The party of the century depends on the inevitable defeat of Odin Balfore, as his United States Championship reign will be the same amount of days as his World Championship reign. Twenty days. Both ended at Revolution. History has a peculiar way of repeating itself. Der einzige Überlebende, wenn der rauch klar wird… |
