Wrestlers all know that if they want to get ahead in the wrestling world, they must manage their in-ring image well.

The image in the ring is not only the obvious abilities such as appearance, speech skills and wrestling skills, but also some hidden details.

Americans worship the strong and like heroes. The strong will be more popular with the audience. With the love of the audience, fame, money and everything else will come naturally.

If you want to show your strength, winning continuously is the easiest way. Everyone likes winners.

Even if you fail occasionally, you can only lose to a famous wrestling superstar or a "shameless" sneak attack by a villain.

But just maintaining victory is not enough. Having a "finishing move" that is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people is also a very important part of the overall image.

According to Paul's image design of himself, his ultimate move "Diamond Cut" should be powerful, dominant, and the final word!

As long as the "Diamond Cut" is used, the opponent will not be able to get up and the game will be over. Only in this way can he show his strength.

However, in this game, the "characteristic" of "Diamond Cut" being able to kill with one hit was actually broken by Quinn!

This is like the Ultimate Warrior versus The Undertaker in the WWF pay-per-view match "Royal Rumble" in 1991.

The Undertaker used the finishing move "Tombstone" three times, and the Ultimate Warrior still stood tall, thus ending the "myth" of the Undertaker's "Tombstone" invincibility.

However, what qualifications does the fledgling boy under him have to withstand his "diamond cutting"?

It is absolutely unforgivable to shake his powerful image!

Paul is somewhat relieved that the event will not be televised.

Maybe some wrestling fans have noticed that his "Diamond Cut" is no longer a one-hit kill, and the range of information dissemination will not be very wide. It should not break the "Diamond" of French nobleman Jean-Paul Levesque.

Cutting' can seal the victory with one stroke!" This fixed impression.

Thinking of this, Paul became angry. After warning Quinn quietly, he cursed at Quinn, "You son of a bitch, greaseball!"

Quinn is half Italian. He has a high nose bridge, black curly hair, and light gray eyes. He looks a bit like Al Pacino in his youth. It is easy to recognize his Italian identity.

Greaseball is an extremely insulting word to Italians. It is equivalent to saying Nico to black people and Ching Chong to Chinese people.

After Paul finished scolding, Quinn's eyes, which had been confused for a long time, suddenly lit up...

The referee's slap has been completed twice, and the palm of the hand is raised high again and then falls. Once it falls to the ground, it means the game is over.

Suddenly, Quinn let out a low growl from deep in his throat, pushed up with both arms, and actually lifted the 210-pound (approximately 200 kilograms) Paul off his body.

Broadcast: [Two and a half! Quarterback Quinn breaks free again!]

The referee's palm suddenly stopped in the air less than ten centimeters from the ground.

The second time!

This was the second time that Quinn got rid of Paul's suppression at the critical moment and continued the game that was about to end.

The audience was in jubilation, they loved to see this: extreme pressure, desperate struggle, until the weak finally counterattacked!

The referee on the stage was confused.

Wasn't Quinn's way of breaking free from oppression a bit too strong?

Quinn's performance did not fit the plot. According to the rhythm of the game and the pre-agreed outcome, Quinn, who was beaten by Paul just now, should act like he was defeated in every battle, either pretending to be injured or pretending to be exhausted.

You shouldn't make moves that show off your explosive power. Instead, it looks like you're trying to reverse the situation and fight back.

But there is one thing to say, this young man who has just entered the ring really has so much strength!

Paul was lifted off the ground, spun around in the air, passed over Quinn's head, and fell heavily onto the ring.

This is the second time that Quinn has endured "Diamond Cutting". His uncle can endure it, but his aunt can't endure it anymore!

Paul got up angrily, ready to teach this ungrateful boy a lesson. If he wanted to know how powerful professional players are, the boy would have to be hospitalized!

He has mastered a lot of techniques for sneaking into the game without letting anyone see through it. To the outside world, it can be said that his mistakes caused injuries.

However, Paul, who struggled to get up, saw a face that was even angrier than his own, and that handsome face even became distorted by anger.

The angry Quinn suddenly rushed towards Paul, and Paul tried to block him. The tall Quinn jumped up, straightened his body in the air, and crashed into his arms like a javelin. The speed was so fast that Paul had no time to react.

Paul was pushed backwards by a strong force, his feet left the ground, and his face was full of shock.

The two landed together, and Paul's back hit the ring hard.

"Bang!"

The muffled sound of the impact penetrated the noisy cheers of the spectators in the stadium.

Paul felt severe pain in his chest and abdomen, but he didn't have the strength to move a finger. The pain that came a little later actually made him faint.

Broadcast: [Spear! Flying shoulder! "Quarterback Quinn" used flying shoulder in short distance! He counterattacked! He knocked down the arrogant French guy! JR, did you see it? Did you see it?

】

[I know it! I know it! The loser who was kicked out of WCW, the unknown soldier of WWF, cannot run rampant in NWA...]

"Shoot!" Randy on the sidelines exclaimed unconsciously.

As soon as the words came out, Randy quickly covered his mouth and looked back warily. He found that no one in the audience outside the fence behind him noticed his gaffe, and he felt slightly relieved.

You can't blame Randy for being cautious. In wrestling jargon, the word "shoot" means that the player did not follow the script, let himself go, and even turned into a real fight.

Due to his close distance, he not only heard Paul's harsh words to Quinn, but also immediately discovered Paul's abnormal state.

He was knocked unconscious by Quinn's flying shoulder!

Although it was Paul who spoke openly, his apprentice did not hold back at all in this collision. It was indeed a bit too much. I hope Paul was not injured!

This competition co-organized by NWA and the New York Independent League was not broadcast on television, but as an important annual event in the New York independent wrestling community, there were still many sports reporters at the scene. If any of them knew that there was a real fight that went off the plot,

I will definitely write about it in the newspaper when I go back.

A few years ago, Williams from the UWF (Union of Wrestling Promoters) faced off against Steve Ray, who was a guest player. There was a real fight during the match, and both of them saw blood.

Although the two reconciled immediately on the ring, the incident was still caught in the media and made a big deal about it.

They said that Williams broke Steve Ray's nose in exchange for the $100 bonus offered by his boss, Herb Abrams. As for the reason why Herb "paid the murderer", it was because of Steve Ray's nose.

Ray slept with Herb's wife.

What a load of shit!

It's not a big deal for a famous player to have a shooting incident. He was really hot during the game, and one or two real shooting incidents can be used as a talking point about the player's true temperament.

But Quinn is still a rookie, and a real beating incident that went against the plot and possibly even injured someone occurred in the first game, which was very detrimental to his career.

From an employer's perspective, no boss in any league would like a troublesome newcomer.

For professional wrestlers, protecting the safety of their opponents is as important as protecting their own safety. No one wants to compete on the same stage with an irritable wrestler who cannot control his emotions.

On the stage...

Paul fell to the ground, and Quinn, who had knocked him down, fell on top of him, creating a situation of suppression. The referee wearing a black tie immediately knelt down and prepared to slap the ring to count the seconds.

The referee's hand was raised high, but suddenly stopped in the air. At this time, he noticed that Paul had fainted.

Naturally, the referee already knew the outcome of this game. Now that something unexpected happened in the game, he was very confused:

"What the hell is this shoot? Why am I so unlucky? Jean-Paul must be useless now. Should I count the seconds and declare the newcomer named 'Quarterback Quinn' the winner?

No, Jean-Paul will definitely cause trouble after the game. After all, he is from the WWF and was invited by the boss to make a guest appearance...

How about...condemning that kid to violate the rules and declaring Jean-Paul the winner?

In full view of everyone, this is not easy to handle!

Or stop the game and call for medical attention, so that neither side of me is offended...

Even if someone is held accountable afterwards, it will still be that kid's fault...

That bastard 'Quarterback Quinn' seems to be the apprentice of 'Randy the Sledgehammer'. That old boy Randy loved to get into trouble back then, and the apprentice he taught was just like him!

You must tell the boss that you will never let this troublesome kid sign with the NWA!"

While these thoughts flashed through the referee's mind, several seconds had passed. During these few seconds, his hand raised high did not fall down.

The audience, which was stimulated with infinite enthusiasm by a swift and decisive "flying shoulder charge", gradually lowered their cheers due to the strange behavior of the referee on the ring and began to have questions.

Broadcast: [The referee did not count the seconds! JR, what is going on? 】

Another voice on the radio: [Shadow! There is definitely a shady story! The French guy bribed the referee!]

[Wow! JR, how can you say that? Didn’t Jean-Paul just sign with your WWF? 】

[I have long said that NWA is a leaky house. Vince McMahon (the boss of WWF) has already extended his black hands into NWA. He cannot tolerate WWF players being defeated by a newcomer! Vince McMahon must have bought it.

referee!】

Wrestling announcers are good at arousing the emotions of the audience, and their speeches are usually free of taboos.

Although JR (Jim Ross) also came from WWF and came out to make extra money like Paul, he hated Vince McMahon and naturally had a bad look on Paul who was poached from WCW by Vince, so he finally seized this opportunity to do his best.

Hack him.

"Count the seconds! Count the seconds quickly!"

Randy slapped the edge of the ring to remind the referee who was standing in a daze.

What else do you care about the script at this time! Hurry up and count down the seconds!
