DT: Ladies and gentlemen, this press conference has been called by David Lawrence, the manager of Team ELITE. He and all three members of the faction are here to set the record straight about what "Gateway" JC Mason has proclaimed, as well as answer questions from the press.
[DT looks to his left as if he is looking for a cue, before turning his attention back to his audience.]
DT: Without further adeiu, I give you David Lawrence.
[Thompson steps off to the side as the young, brash manager of Team ELITE swaggers to the podium in a black suit, white undershirt and black tie. His blonde hair is spiked up and he has a cocky look in his eyes.]
DL: Ladies and gentlemen of the press, as well as anyone watching this via the internet or television, my name is David Lawrence. I represent Team ELITE and it's members. We have prepared a statement and I'll read it word for word.
[DL removes a piece of paper from the inside pocket of his jacket, unfolds it and holds it before him, all while clearing his throat annoyingly.]
DL: Team ELITE and all it's members, which includes: Daniel Corey, C.J. Rowell, Chris Butler and myself, David Lawrence, have never, nor ever will inject or take any form of steroids, performance-enhancing, or illegal substances. Any mention of Team ELITE's name and likeness mentioned by "Gateway" JC Mason, is a bold faced lie. As a definitive unit, everyone who is jealous of the strangehold we have over the wrestling world. So, for someone like JC Mason to stir the pot and try to tarnish the Team ELITE name, he will in factg pay a heavy price.
[DL places the paper back into his jacket.]
DL: Ladies and gentlemen, I'd like to introduce, at this time, Daniel Corey and Chris Butler.
[Corey and Butler come on stage, dressed in black and red "TE" hoodies, black jeans and black sneakers. Corey, the smaller of the two, has a backwards black cap on while Butler has his new short black hair showing.]
Corey: Excuse me, but who the hell does JC Mason think he is? Mason, you have tried to put a black mark on our storied career, dude. That's not acceptable, my friend. So our good buddy, Derek Shanahan, has booked the right match for the next PPW Sunday Night Showdown. It will be the two of us versus just you.
[Corey chuckles as Butler just stands there silent, as always.]
Corey: I'll have you know, JC, that my body is one hundred and fifty percent clean. I've never taken any drugs to improve myself. That, my friend, includes those shams known as Flintstones' Vitamins. Fuck Fred Flintstone.
[DL come up and pushes Corey back.]
DL: I'd also like to introduce the current PPW Heavyweight Champion, "Blockbuster" C.J. Rowell.
[C.J. Rowell steps onto the stage, wearing blue jeans, a white button down shirt with the sleeves half rolled up, white Nike Airs and the PPW Championship slung over his shoulder.]
Rowell: JC Mason, you idiot, you unleashed something bad, man. TE does not take kindly to people slandering our name. We're going to make an example of you. Chris and Daniel will beat you so bad that you'll end up teaching tee ball kids how to juice up by the end of the summer, you're wrestling career will be over.
[Rowell stares out into the crowd of press people and cameramen.]
Rowell: I've never needed to enhance myself, I'm the best in the game today, been the best in the game then and will continue to be number one in the world in the future. And if any of you in this audience, at home, or in the locker rooms around the globe think otherwise, I'll gladly show you first hand what a real champion is made of.
[DL walks back up to the microphone.]
DL: We'd like to open this up for questions...
DL: ... one at a time please. We're all adults here, people, act like it.
Man: Arnold Blair, WrestlingNewsNow.com. Question for Mr. Rowell, what are your thoughts on being pinned last night by "Headliner" Chris Kaladaro?
[Rowell slams his hand on the podium.]
Rowell: You shut your mouth. That was not supposed to happen because Kaladaro is nothing but a punk. This kid is a never-will-be bitch that deserves to be castrated and left on a couch with a bucket of bon bons like every other woman.
[Rowell points out at the crowd.]
Rowell: You all laughed when he pinned me, I can sense it. Well, I'll show all of you that it was nothing but a fluke come the next Sunday Night Showdown. Kaladaro will be destroyed and left for dead, mark my words. Even Burrell can't save him, not that he would anymore anyway.
[Rowell slams his hand down on the podium once again.]
Rowell: Chris, get all the cases of Campbell's Chunky Soup you can find at your local grocery store, eat all the spinach you can cram in your mouth and come prepared for a war. You're not in the little show anymore, punk, you're messing with the king of the jungle. I am the "Blockbuster"; I am the "Mephisto" and I am the "By God, World's Greatest" C.J. Rowell.
[Rowell stands back from the podium as Daniel Corey steps back up.]
Corey: Anyone got something for one half of the world's greatest tag team ever?
Male: Tao Takanishi, WrestleKingdomNippon.jp. Corey and Butler, you two have a rigorous schedule lined up. You are involved in the Universal Pro Wrestling "Climb to the Summit", PPW's "Sunday Night Showdown" and are due back to Superstar Pro in Japan in March, not to mention the number one contenders to the International Influence Openweight Tag team Champions. How do you feel about your large workload?
[Corey smiles as he looks over to Butler, who just nods his head.]
Corey: We're more than capable to handle such a wordload. We are already the best in S-PRO, II and PPW. One of us will move on and win the UPW Summit Title. The II Openweight Tag Team Titles will be ours come Revenge. When Shanahan decided to activate the PPW Tag team Titles, he's handing them to us. Chris is going to become the Iron Crown Heavyweight Champion and I'm winning the Iron Crown Junior Heavyweight Champion.
[Corey points his right index finger into his chest.]
Corey: We're the best around, no one else can bring us down. Forget Team Wildfire, we owned them. Forget Johnny Lightning, he slipped on a banana peel and we mopped him up. Dusty Griffitn and Garret Bishop? Please, don't make me laugh. We beat Bishop for the Iron Crown Tag Team Titles once. We beat an Olympic Gold Medalist. The Sex Symbols, they're locked into out radar and we're going to end them. Then when that's all said and done, we're coming for the World Tag Team Titles.
[Corey points his finger out at the press.]
Corey: Then we're going to the NWA, then off to BACW, to CASW, going to break into the WC:C offices and steal those belts, we're going to go back in time and beat The Briscos and be the undisputed best tag team ever.
[Corey pauses.]
Corey: YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!
[Corey punches his fist out into the air.]
Corey: POW! POW!
[DL comes back up to the podium, nearly laughing.]
DL: Thanks, that's all for now.
[The TE members vacate the stage as the press members begin packing their stuff up.]
