The Post-Absolution Stream (O2A)

[Devin Matthews]

A GCW.COM Exclusive

The shot opens on Devin Matthews standing backstage at Absolution, microphone in hand, as the show was winding down.

GCW fans welcome to your dot com post-pay per view stream with me, Devin Matthews. Don't adjust your set because... brace yourself... This isn't on TV!

This is too raw. We're tracking down all the GCW superstars for their reactions from tonight's massive show, so let's get to it. Oh hey, there's one now!

[Jennifer Drew]

I was still a little out of it from the match. It was short but Trinity got her shots in but good. Did they let some guy from a fanzine in here or something? No wait, looks like my post-match is coming my way.

Hey, you're that guy... Devin Matthews. So everyone can dial up the right web number and see this here on that internet?

[Devin Matthews]

Well just for everyone who bought the show and just couldn't get enough.

Everyone else has to wait. Feel my scorn non-streamers.

He said with a contemptuous point at the lens.

Now, Jennifer, sources tell me that you are still our GCW Top Debutante Champion. If that's accurate congratulations. Earlier during the show one of my “competitors” got a hold of your would-have-been number one contender, Lessien Melwasul who had some pretty serious words for you. Got anything to say on that note?

[Jennifer Drew]

Hang on let's see if I can corroborate this here.

It wasn't so much that he didn't do any research it was that it was like he didn't even look at me as I walked up. I patted myself down until I got to my waist and heard a satisfying clink on the front plate of the belt.

Cool, we're fact checked here soI'm going to go ahead with it.

The months go by and now the weather-beaten leather overcoat's on the other back. I'm suddenly understanding the disappointment you felt way back when and it really sucks. Now I hear you're trying to get my hopes up.

So if you're really coming. I mean really coming to leave a “serious title contender” present under my tree and I'm not leaving whiskey and Lucky Strikes out on the counter for nothing then let's see what you got. Fair warning, next time you throw a camera at my head, you'd better hit me.

Hey, good luck with this “internet” thing Dev, I think it could be big.

And I was finally off to the showers.

[Devin Matthews]

He watches her walk off then turns back to face the camera for a stand up.

Yes that's right folks you heard it here first.

Right here on GCW.com.

First.

From me.

Devin Matthews.

And we'll leave you to guess where this issue's going to lead. Hang on, I think I see someone else out there.

He turns to the side and starts inspecting all the foot traffic going by hoping he can pull at least one more big interview.

(Still wide open here)

Jack Jyndal was in the back after his tag team title defense. He had showered but was watching the end of the show when he noticed Devin Matthews down the hall, exactly where Jack had to go to grab his bags and luggage with all his gear. Jack walked casually down the hall, wearing a random GCW "Lock Up!" tee, a pair of casual jeans with some black skate shoes (he found them most comfortable) and his trademark sunglasses hanging from the collar of his shirt... Jyndal was almost passed Matthews when...

[Devin Matthews]

Oh that's right, we're getting all the gold right here on GCW.com because right now we're going to one half of your GCW World Class Tag Team Champions, Mr. Jack Jyndal.

Jack, huge week for you, Absolution and I assume it was your cousin giving the rebuttal to the speech to the joint session of Congress earlier, and you're still walking around as a champion. Looking out at the scene who else do you see with their sights on you and Toreno and are when's the next run at the World title?

[jj]

Jack takes a deep breath and turns to the camera, and Devin Matthews...

You think you're smart? huh? can you read?.... my name has a Y in it.... not an I, a Y. But yes you are right, this is a big week. Tonight you saw me, and Steve Toreno show Jack McArthur and that....other guy, didn't catch the name, why no more tag teams play in the yard. It's because of the expertise and pure concentrated talent that runs throu Natural Selections' vains and is shown every single time we step bettween those ropes... And tonight was no exception, not only did we win, but did you see that IKO? I thought I knocked the guy out.... too busy celebrating to check, but I think I did.... And what is this you say? run at the World Title? Well Devin, it's quite simple, Jon Pryor fought hard and beat Jin Remmy to win that belt... But Jonny boy should take his time returning to the ring, because me and him have some business to take care of. Even if Jin Remmy thinks he deserves a rematch...

Jack waits for the next question....

[Devin Matthews]

Jack, this is the web, bro. We don't get concerned with letters, and spelling, and “accuracy” whatever that means. So are we all right to assume that those two better look out for you in the next few days?

[jj]

You could say that.... I mean if you look at our roster, who else is as deserving for a world title shot than me, not to mention I've got a little beef with the new champ. He knows why, and you all will soon find out

But I'm guessing you want to know what will be happening with these tag belts?

[Jon Pryor]

The new champion had finally made it to the back. A massive fireworks celebration, and a corpse standing on two feet didn't make for a hasty exit. Stepping down from the steps of the production area, he collapsed back somewhat noisily against the nearest wall, almost losing his white knuckled grip on the GCW World Championship. He slowly collapsed into a seated heap on the ground, trying to regain his bearings.

[Devin Matthews]

Definitely, right after this.

He signals to run an ad as he runs off and grabs a bottle of water then rushes back to where Pryor is sitting, kneels down and offers it to him.

Well we're unexpectedly joined by the new GCW Champion Jon Pryor. Jon, any thoughts immediately coming off the big win and are you alright?

Actually, you know what, let's reverse those two questions so it reflects my sincere interest in others' well-being.

[Jon Pryor]

"For almost an hour...

... I'll live."

He takes the water, his hands uncontrollably shaky. Fumbling with the cap, he manages to twist it off, before putting it to his lips and taking a drink. He was massively dehydrated, his body was racked in pain.

"But... I did it. I gained... purpose again... I think just... that match there..... added tenfold... to the prestige of the championship."

His head fell back lightly against the wall, while his arm lifted the ton of weight that was the championship belt in his current state. He looked at its faceplate."This makes it all worth... worth it..."

[mg]

MG was coming out of Daniel Justice room with a blunt in the mouth. He was just in a intense conversation with the champ and slams the door as soon as he walked out. This cut everybody off from talking. MG walks over to the interview that was going on and starts to talk.

Yo I don't give a shit about the damn champ. I swear every time you talk you sound like a rapist. NOW you got the title. Huh? This guy shouldn't have even gotten in the tornament before me. Lucky for this guy I didn't get in. That would be me

He takes a pull and puff out the smoke in the camera.

But hey you beat somebody I only beat once out of the three time we fought congratz. But trust me after I'm done with Justice your next. OK.

He takes another puff and leaves

[Jon Pryor]

"Where's the wellness policy to fire his ass?"

Fucking idiot.
