{After several long moments owner of the former UAW, Rymiel, walks out with Seth Winters of the former NMW. Both men take stances behind their announce podiums. The room quiets as everyone faces the stage silently.}
Rymiel: Good evening folks. On last Sunday we paid for the error of our ways. This was made clear as Nightshade appeared and ended both federations. Myself and Winters have discussed the idea of fighting this decision, and decided not too…..
{Some people start mumbling}
Rymiel: We agreed to the terms, and we're man enough to stand by it. Or in Winter's case woman enough
Seth Winters: You just wish you were half the woman I am
{Rymiel sighs and takes a deep breath}
Rymiel: This is why we've come to a secondary decision. To continue in new federations. Unfortunately the loss of the UAW and NMW has nearly bankrupt both of us. Neither have the start up capital for a few federations. Because of that we looked into possible transfer of management from a currently well known and respected federation.
Seth Winters: We checked with the MOW, SEW, and other places, we nearly had a deal but there were creative differences.
Rymiel: You tried to eat their chairs……
Seth Winters: Let's not dwell on it, but there was nothing we could do
Rymiel: So myself and Winters have made a decision
{Rymiel clicks a button on the remote and the curtains behind fall away to reveal a new logo.}
Rymiel: Myself and Winters will be co-owners of the new NAW, New Arena Wrestling!
Seth Winters: And all superstars, from both federations are welcome to sign with us. We're looking to improve on such great legends as some Arena-Cage thing, BUT even more importantly the Cardboard Box matches!!!
{Some of the wrestlers cheer and others clap, some just remain sitting unmoved.}
Rymiel: The first few weeks will be rough ones, we'll be combining championships, getting rid of others. Everything will be changing, but it will be getting stronger, BETTER. We invite everyone to join us as New Arena Wrestling takes off - and once more pushes the limit of sports entertainment as the UAW did.
{Winters coughs loudly}
Rymiel: <sighs> … and the NMW as well.
{Winters smiles proudly}
Winters: Furthermore, I'd just like to say that Rymiel and I…mainly me…are totally intent on making the NAW a fan-friendly federation. If you want mashed potatoes, you've got mashed potatoes. That's just the kind of guys we are.
{Rymiel looks over and frowns as he listens to Winters ramble on.}
Winters: Also, I'm sick and tired of all of these federations looking, acting, and smelling exactly the same way. Almost every company out there I've seen has an Extreme title, or they have a weekly show. Well I'll be the first to say that NAW will NOT have an Extreme title and we will NOT have a weekly show! If anything, our shows will be daily!
{Rymiel's eyes widen.}
Rymiel: Now let's not get carried away Winters…
Winters: Well dammit, I'm just tired of all these copycat federations that are no different from any others. This is America! Land of the free, and home of the koala bear! And with George W. Bush as my witness, the NAW will be different! I am not a crook!!
{A tear rolls down Winter's cheek. Rymiel stands there and stares in pure amazement of Winter's stupidity.}
Rymiel: Ok, first of all, the koala bear lives in Australia, you dolt. Secondly, I'd just like to reiterate what Winters so eloquently just said. If nothing else, the NAW will be different. You all can look forward to some brand new ideas, and we'll show everyone that we're not down and out just yet, no matter what Nightshade thinks he is capable. Right Winters?
{Rymiel looks over at the former owner of NMW for some support, but Winters blankly stares out into the audience, before leaning over and licking the microphone. Rymiel just shakes his head.}
Rymiel: Ok, that wraps up the conference. We'll be sure to keep you all informed on the happenings behind the scenes of the NAW. So I thank you all for coming, have a nice day.
{Rymiel steps down from the podium and leaves the area, as Winters slowly leans down towards the microphone. He opens his mouth, but doesn't speak. The people out in the audience stand and wait for Winters to speak, but he doesn't. After a moment, the people begin filing out of the room, and the press are released from their cage. The press immediately swarm towards Winters, who remains frozen with his mouth open in front of the microphone. One of the members of the press raises his hand to indicate that he has a question, but Winters doesn't budge. Eventually Rymiel peeks around the corner.}
Rymiel: Seth! Let's go! Microphones amplify your voice, not your breath!
{Winters now takes a step back from the microphone as if he's just seen a ghost.}
Winters: You mean they all left because they just felt like it?
Rymiel-Uhh…yeah…
{Another tear rolls down Winter's cheek as he steps back up to the microphone.}
Winters: I'm sorry press people, but we won't be taking any questions today on the account that my entire world is crashing down around me…Thank you.
{Winters steps down from the podium and walks away with his head down as he and Rymiel leave the scene.}
**Just click the NAW link, and go to the board.
If you still want to be a member of the new federation then leave a message
on the OOC board saying so. The next week and a half will be spent getting
the site up and running. Once that's done the action will commence.**
