OOC: If you care, this ties in to my other promo for the TFCE, if you want to read that first, click here.
It’s nighttime and Xavier Lux is laying inside of an old small rowboat, passed out for reasons unknown to us… (or known to you if you watched his promo for the Night Four Main Event Match up, heh). We see pieces of shattered wood all around him, and what’s left of a large pirate boat slowly sinking to the bottom of the ocean. Not too far from that we see Waikiki beach, and the many resorts the lineup against the coastline. We also don’t know how long he has been here, but suddenly his phone starts to go off in his pocket, we see it vibrating and we hear his ringtone, which is “The Infection” by Disturbed, yup the same as his theme song, what a mark… The phone, or rather, the song plays for a while as he is knocked out and just unable to answer. The phone stops ringing only briefly before it starts to go off again, but this time, it causes Xavier to stir… He slowly opens his eyes, reaches into his pocket, then realizes his phone is not there and reaches into his other pocket, bingo. He pulls out the phone, not bothering to look at who it is calling, he just answers, and it is a face time call from his former manager and Godfather, Paco “The Drinking Time Bomb” Perez.
“Yo…”
“Hola mi’jo! Where the hell are you? I can’t see you…”
“Um, honestly, I have no idea where I am at the moment g-man. ”
Xavier sits up on the boat, rubs his eyes and looks around and he can’t make heads or tails of what’s happened. He then looks at Paco and he sees that he has a submarine looking vessel right behind him.
“Woah, where are you?”
“Ah we are about to get on the Atlantis Submarine. Cholo rented out the whole thing and is throwing a party under the sea! You should come out; we’re not leaving for another hour or so… We’re tailgating per say. It’s going to be a banger of a time; we’re not coming back up until the morning! ”
“Thanks G-Man, but I think I’m just going to hang out here and figure out what the hell is going on. I think I was drugged, then abducted by pirates. ”
“Damn mi’jo, that sounds like a party on its own. I hope the pirates were hot!”
“Nah man, they were dudes, I think… SEB hired them?”
“Oh, a sword fight is not my kind fight if you get my drift… I need me some salty wenches! Ha!”
“I think I could use some myself at this moment. ”
“Well since you are just sitting there doing nothing, why don’t you tell me how you feel about the night one event: rumble! Personally, I hope you and Cholo are the last two, nothing would make me prouder. ”
“Honestly Paco, I’m not sure what I was thinking when I agreed to be in this rumble event, I remember agreeing to the main event of night four, that is a huge match up and a great opportunity for me to hang with the top tier talent. But this rumble, I haven’t heard of most of these guys, and the ones that I have, like Warthog? Well, they leave a lot to be desired. ”
“Oh come on, don’t be like that… Aaron is a sweetheart. Now as to how you got in it, well, if you weren’t becoming such a drunk ass like your… err, never mind… If you weren’t wasted all the time, you wouldn’t do things you regret the next morning… We were at one of Cholo’s charity balls and you were drunk out of your mind, and one of the announcements he made that night was that he was entering the TFCE Rumble, and he named his charity. You got on stage, embarrassing him and me, saying you were entering as well and then you mumble some random charity and boom, you were in it.”
“Is that how it really went down Paco? ”
“Yes! Why? You have a better story? ”
“Nope, let’s roll with it. It’s fine, I have never made a wrestling commitment that I flaked out on, and I am not about to start now. So I will be at this rumble, and it doesn’t matter if I draw number one or number… ”
“Fifty. ”
“FIFTY?! Are you kidding me?! ”
“Nah, from what Tara has been saying that is the number of wrestlers she plans to have on this thing. It is the only event of the night, it kicks off the whole four day event so it’s gotta be big know what I mean?”
“Yeah I guess, well looks like I definitely bit off more than I can chew but no matter, once I get on land I’ll start working on getting sober, getting hydrated and begin my training for it, we still have a few days… All good Paco. ”
“Glad to hear it godson, you know I’m here if you want some help.”
“I know old man, I know. Go, have fun in your submarine and tell Cholo I can’t wait to toss his ass over the top rope. ”
Just then Cholo pops his big afro into view, followed by his smiling face.
“You wish Puto!”
He blows Xavier a kiss and walks off, Paco comes back laughing.
“Some nephew you got there Paco.”
“He’s got a heart of gold that one, gotta love him. Alright, talk to you later.”
“Adios. ”
Xavier ends the call, thinks about making a call to Chris Page when he gets nauseous and quickly doubles over and begins hurling, thankfully off camera. He comes back up, wiping his mouth.
“Oh yeah, I’m so ready for this rumble, let’s go!”
He falls back, knocked out again.
