Dean Andry vs Mystery Opponent

[Dean Andry]

(The scene opens and I’m in the ring giving some young amateur trainee a wrestling lesson that will make him forever remember the name Dean Andry. I’m known for my aggression and I bet this young guy in here with me right now is scared out of his skin that he’s gonna get hurt by me. I roughly throw the guy down to the mat and I shout at the veteran trainer standing on the outside of the ring.)

Dean: Get me some competition next time! Not some sack a’ worthless shit like this guy!

(I violently pick the guy up from the mat and throw him through the ropes and out to the floor. That’s how I roll. I don’t care if you’ve been wrestling for ten minutes or ten years. You’ll get no mercy from me. I climb out of the ring and walk to the exit doors that lead into the hall and with a powerful impact, I push the doors wide open, not caring that someone might be standing on the other side. I go to the change room and start to gather up my things since I sure ain’t gonna take a shower in this shithole of a gym. I’ll get a splash n’ a dash of soap when I’m back at the hotel. I start to talk to myself which I do a lot. I talk to myself a lot of times when I’m alone. It helps me keep my thoughts in check.)

Dean: I don’t know why they keep handin’ me these young kids to train on. The whole point of a workout is to be challenged. To have resistance. To have opposition. The treadmill is a challenge just like weightlifting is a challenge, but these guys I’m being given are a waste of my time. Why don’t they see that they’re just wasting, wasting, wasting, wasting my time!

(Once all my things are ready and stuffed into my gymbag, I put my black jacket on and leave the building. When I get back to my hotel and walk through the lobby, the female receptionist comes running up to me. Maybe she wants a hot date with me. I get that a lot.)

Receptionist: Mr. Andry, you had a message come in for you while you were gone.

(She hands me this small paper from a memo pad and I take it from her and read the message. It’s from WXW management and they’re telling me I’m booked this week and to contact them about it. I look back at the chick.)

Dean: You’re real kind to give me this sweet cakes. Run along now and get back behind that desk of yours. Ya look like a cute little ornament behind it.

(She looks at me weird and I start leaving the lobby to go upstairs. When I get up here to my hotel room, I sit down on the bed and toss my hotel key on the night stand and I give management a call to find out about my match this week. When I’m told about it, I don’t like what I hear.)

Dean: What do you mean I’m facing a mystery opponent?

(They try to give me reasons to not be upset by this but I have all reason to be.)

Dean: You’re not even gonna tell me who I’m facing? That’s real sweet, real fucking sweet!

(I hang up on them and I get all pissed off.)

Dean: I know what this is all about. This is disciplinary action against Extreme Justice. They don’t like us going after Corey Bull and his friends. We don’t like it when people stand against us and so they have to pay for doing so. It has to be painful. That’s what life is all about, and that’s what me, Darren, and Romeo are all about. Someone fucks with us, we take em’ out. No if’s, and’s, or but’s about it. If this mystery person wants to sign on to step in the ring with me, then they better be prepared for what comes next.

(I’m too amped up now and I can’t sit still anymore. I stand up and walk around to loosen up before I really snap.)

Dean: I wanna punch a hole in the wall right now but I’ll save that for Corey Bull’s face when I get my revenge on him January 12. I don’t give a fuck about DeMarco or his chick cousin. It’s Bull I want and ain’t nothin’ gonna stop me.

(I go over to my jacket and I pull out my own personal weapon that I’ve kept for years but haven’t used now in so long. Won me a lot of fights back in the day and did a lot of damage to people who stood against me. Brass knuckles.)

Dean: You’ve been packed away for too long.

(I slide the brass knuckles on my right hand and make a fist and hold it up in front of me as I grin.)

Dean: Since everyone is making their debut, I think it’s time ya made yours...

(I grin at my brass knuckled fist and the scene fades out.)

Here is Chaz Holiday's rp that he submitted to management before deadline. Chaz was the mystery opponent against Dean on the Saturday Night Showdown Special January 4, 2014. Enjoy!


*** The scene opens up with Chaz Holiday, in his home in Los Angeles. He’s sitting on couch, with his feet kicked up, reading a book. He turns the page and starts to read it, when his phone begins to ring. He grabs the book mark, putting it in the page that’s on and shutting the book. He reaches over, grabbing the phone off of the drawer that sits next to his couch. He answers it. ***

Chaz Holiday: Hello?

??: Hello, Chaz?

Chaz Holiday: Yes. Who may I ask is calling?

??: My name’s Cassandra Caldwell. I run a wrestling company called WXW. I got this number from a friend of yours, Alexis.

Chaz Holiday: Ohhhh. Well, it’s nice to meet you. To what pleasure do I owe this phone call?

Cassandra Caldwell: I have a show coming up and I want you to be on it. Dean Andry has a mystery opponent match in the main event and I want that opponent to be you.

Chaz Holiday: I’m flattered that you would choose me but why?

Cassandra Caldwell: I want someone who can make an impact and generate interest. You certainly do that. Plus I know that you won’t screw us over. If you’re a friend of Alexis, I know I can trust you.

Chaz Holiday: Thank you for the kind words. When and where is this show?

Cassandra Caldwell: It’s January 4th, in Rosemont, Illinois.

Chaz Holiday: I have a show earlier in the day, in New York but… I think I can make it there in time.

Cassandra Caldwell: Does that mean you’re going to do it?

Chaz Holiday: I’ll do it. It’ll be tough but out of anybody you could have had, you picked me. And I’m grateful for that. Surprised, really.

Cassandra Caldwell: Thank you! Really Chaz, this means a lot to me. And please, don’t tell anybody about this. It’s a surprise.

Chaz Holiday: No problem. And don’t worry, I won’t. I will see you on Saturday.

Cassandra Caldwell: I look forward to it.

Chaz Holiday: As do I. Ciao.

Cassandra Caldwell: Bye.

*** Chaz hangs up the phone. He was excited for this and really wanted to tell someone but he knew he couldn’t. He was feeling all pumped up for the show and decided to record a quite promo regarding his opponent and everything else. He grabs his iPhone, turning the video recorder on and he starts to film himself speaking. ***

Chaz Holiday: Hello everybody! If you’re watching this, you’ve found your way to my personal website and for that, I say thanks! Now I’m making this video because I have a match coming up on Saturday. Yes, by the time you see this, the match will be over. But I wanted to give my thoughts on the match and everything, anyways, because it’s such a big moment for me.

Why you may ask? Because it’s my first match in over a year! There was a point in time when I didn’t know if I’d wrestle again. Heck, I didn’t know if I’d walk on my own, all thanks to Mr. Drake DeMarco. But I overcame the odds. I got back on my feet and not only that, I defied what doctors thought possible and I rehabbed to the point where I could wrestle again. Do they recommend it? No. But I love wrestling too much to go out like that. I don’t want someone deciding when I have to step away from this business. I want that decision to be mine. That’s why I’m looking to make 2014 a big year.

I’m looking to expand and venture out into new places. Some of you already know that I’ve gone to FGA as a manager for my friend, Rowan Grae. That was my first step. My next step is getting my name out there as much as possible and wrestling for other companies. That’s where the reasoning of this whole video comes into play.

I got a phone call from Cassandra Caldwell, from the WXW, about competing in a match against one of their wrestlers by the name of Dean Andry. I look at WXW as a great opportunity to start my whole process of getting my name out there to take bookings and get some matches under my belt. Not to mention, I know that several of my friends are there and I know that if they’re there, it must be a good place.

So I accepted the offer, despite the fact that it’s going to force me to rush out of New York to make it there, because I have to appear for FGA, earlier on in the same day. I not only wanted to do this for myself, but I wanted to do it for you guys. The fans. You’ve told me how much you’ve missed seeing me on TV. And now here I am, with an opportunity presented to me, to do just that. There’s no way I could turn it down.

Now, I don’t know much about the WXW or my opponent, Dean. I admit that. Another thing I admit is the fact that I haven’t been in the ring in over a year and there’s a good chance I have some ring rust. But, I’m not worried. Because despite that, I feel like I’m in the best physical shape of my career. Ring shape? Who knows. Time will tell that. But I feel good. And mentally, I feel great.

As I said, I don’t know much about Dean. But from the little exposure to him that I’ve had, I know a few things. One, I know he’s a loud mouth. Two, I know he’s a jerk. And three, I know he’s annoying. Want to know what I hate? Loud, annoying, jerks. Dean, you talk a whole lot of crap. Well now’s your chance to back up all of that talking. Here’s your chance to beat a man, that’s been in one of the most storied feuds in all of wrestling. Here’s your chance to beat a man who’s looked at as one of the most recognizable names in the business.

I’ve seen Dean wrestle. And I know he’s good. I’m not going to pretend like he’s not. I’m not ignorant like that. But when I know I’m in the ring with someone like Dean, it drives me harder to succeed. Not only that but I have even more motive to do better. Like I said, it’s my first match in over a year. People are going to be counting on me to win and to put on a show and to live up to the hype that I’ve created for myself. Plus this is a special show. And I’m a mystery opponent. I’m supposed to be a big surprise, a bit deal. And I have to deliver so that it’s not a flop. Not just for my sake but for Cassandra’s sake. Because she’s putting all her faith and trust in me to deliver a top notch match.

Can I promise that? No I can’t, unfortunately. Who knows what to expect, with how long I’ve been out of the game. But what I can promise is that I’m going to try as hard as I ever have. This isn’t just a match and it’s not just a paycheck for me. I have a lot to prove with this match. I need to prove to myself, more than anybody else really, that I can still do this. That I can still wrestle and that the injury and the year out of the ring didn’t extinguish my ability to go. I’m not going to say I’m going to win and that Dean’s going down and all of that jazz. What I will say is that I’m going to try to win this match and I’m going to try my best to put on a memorable match, as if it’s my last. Because I’ve learned never to take anything for granted, after what happened with Drake DeMarco. Because any match COULD be your last. If so, be ready Dean. Because whenever I go down, I plan on going down swinging. Stay fantabulous everyone! Muah!
