Is This The End?
Around Christmas, things haven't been the same in Tim's life and he let his personal life show into his professional life. That's a good thing when you think about it when it comes to his fans, but this year wasn't that good for Tim. Having two people die just around Christmas with his mother's boyfriend dying 2-days before Christmas eve and then an uncle dying on Christmas eve, 2011 just wasn't ending out on a good note. With his love life also on the rocks and ending up breaking up with his girlfriend on New Years, 2011 wasn't ending out the way that he wanted. His personal life began taking over and while those from WBW (Wicked Blood Wrestling) tried to get a hold of him to see if he was still under contract with them, he was nowhere to be found. After the new year and appeared to be getting his life together, Tim finally emerged and showed some life when he returned a phone call to the WBW staff about his job status. A few phone calls back and forth and face-to-face meetings eventually led the WBW committee to draw the line and come to a conclusion. While it may have come across harsh, Tim took it to heart and that's what draws him to strive harder at what he does.
After told about his match in Los Angeles against Nick Shields, he was also told to "put on a good show or hit the road". So needless to say this match could possibly be his last match or it could be the start of something great. The only person to help him now was himself as while WBW offered to help him in the beginning but that was before he decided to "no show" live events. Putting the company out of money that they invested in his character and building him up, he was depressed and truly sorry but he knew that wouldn't cut it just telling them. Of course, actions speak louder than words and he didn't think that until after his match then he'd be able to look management in the face.
{Location: At The Arena/Locker Room}
Tim had just arrived to the arena and just signed in at the front door and picked up his usual VIP pass and was on his way down the hallway walking towards his locker room. As he reached the door with his name written on a sign on the door, he opened the door and stepped inside the room and took a deep breathe. After setting down his suitcase next to a locker, he began to unzip his bag and put his wrestling gear on the hangers in the locker. A knock came to his door and he put down what was in his hands and stood up and walked to the door. He opened it and there in front of him stood the WBW General Managers, Destiny & Crystal Sweet. The emotions on their face was hard to read but Tim invited them inside. They all three walked over to the sofa and sat down as Tim sat in a chair. They then began to talk.
[Talking With The Sweet Sisters: Begin]
As Tim began to talk, both Destiny and Crystal sat back and crossed their legs and listened as Tim began to talk. He explained his abscents in the past and explained what had also happened towards the end of the year of 2011. He left it open for them to comment on anything he said but they were hurt and upset at him still. With awkward silence, Tim felt bad for what he did and began to reflect as he he lowered his head. Although he couldn't see, the sisters looked at each other for a second before Tim looked back up and over to the two of them. He went to speak again but he couldn't get the words to come out. He bowed his head again and stood up from his chair and then looked up at the clock on the wall. Seeing how it was almost time for the show to begin, the sisters also stood up from the sofa and began to walk towards the door to leave. Tim walked around them and opened the door for them and before they left his door, the only words spoken by them were "good luck tonight" and they walked on.
[Talking with The Sweet Sisters: End]
Tim slowly began to close the door and walked back to his locker where he had his wrestling gear hung up and took them into to the bathroom and began to change his clothes. After a few seconds of changing, he returned with his street clothes in his hand and began to put them on the hanger and placed them on the locker. He then walked over to the sofa and looked up at the plasma television on the wall and watched as their was a match taking place (Valentina Zimmer vs. Jezabel Jezzi) and a scrolling ticker appearing on the bottom of the screen telling the next match (Nick Shields vs. Tim Stone) to follow.
As Tim was dressed and ready to go, he stood up after watching a little more of the women's match and walked towards the door. As he opened it and walked out into the hallway, Tim began to walk down the hall and towards the ring entrance. He could hear the loudness of the crowd as they were cheering the last seconds of the (Valetina Zimmer vs. Jezabel Jezzi) match. As Tim approached the entrance curtain, he saw across from him his opponent (Nick Shields) walking and getting closer to him. The two made eye contact but didn't speak and then he turned and walked through the entrance curtain. Tim then turned around and watched on the television monitor set-up backstage as the ring announcer (Susy Jones) began to announce the next match.
[Inside The Arena]
With Susy Jones inside the ring, the timekeeper at ringside began to sound the ring bell and signal the beginning of the next match. The ring announcer, Susy Jones, began to speak into her microphone as she began to introduce the first participant of the following match.
<Susy Jones> The following contest is scheduled for One Fall is for the Internet Championship! (The sold out crowd cheers as she continues to speak). Introducing first...
(Nick Shields entrance)
As [Nick Shields] is already in the ring waiting for his opponent, Susy Jones begins to announce his opponent.
<Susy Jones> And his opponent... As Tim stands behind the entrance curtain waiting for his music to begin to play, the sound man presses play for his music and throughout the arena "My Time Is Now" by John Cena & The Trademarc is heard.
The crowd begins cheering and whistling as Tim makes bursts through the entrance curtain and stands on the entrance stage. As a camera man is in place and is standing in front of Tim with the camera focused on him, he looks into the camera and and points into the crowd and can barely be heard saying... [Stone] Can you hear that? That's what I do this for. After he looks over the crowd, he takes his place back at the top of the ramp and stands in the center and looks straight ahead. He then performs a military salute before he runs down to the ring. The camera angle switches to another view and catches at Tim slides under the bottom rope and ends up inside the ring. He stands to his feet and walks to his right and stands near the ropes. He looks towards the stationary camera and points and then performs another salute. He then turns around and is met by the referee who asks to check him for illegal weapons. He allows the referee to check him as he walks backwards into a corner and leans back as he lifts his feet so the referee can check his boots. He then reaches around his neck and pulls out a necklace of his dads dog tags and takes them off his neck. He kneels down and places them under the bottom turnbuckle and the referee completes his body search. As he signals for the bell to sound and the match to begin, Tim takes off his shirt and he hears whistles as he has his eyes locked on his opponent and throws his shirt out into the crowd.
