27 RAW tryouts(1/2)
December 10th, Boston, TD Garden Arena.
The live broadcast will be broadcast tomorrow, and WWF staff are nervously setting up the scene. On the ring that has been set up in advance, four wrestlers are rehearsing.
Vince McMahon moved a folding chair and sat on the passage leading from the players' exit to the ring, watching the rehearsals on stage.
"Stop! Stop! Stop!"
Vince McMahon suddenly stood up, stopped the game, and walked to the ring. The four players on the stage gathered around him to listen to the lecture.
"Smoking Gunns, you two should go and rest first. You will take a rest this week and we will arrange for you to play next week."
After sending away two of them, Vince McMahon leaned against the corner post and said to the other two wrestlers who looked familiar: "Jeff, Matt, I'm sorry that your performance couldn't impress me. Your cooperation was stiff. I can't even believe that you are brothers, especially Matt, you are not strong enough, what is your ultimate move...
Yes, a twist of fate, reversed DDT, and no explosive power! Can't you do the high lift?
Sorry, Jeff, your brother is not mature enough. After all, he is only twenty years old and there is still room for growth. I suggest Matt focus on training. Next year...next March, I will definitely let him take the stage and compete in individual competitions first. What do you think about letting you form a team again in the second half of the year?
By the way, since your double match has been taken away, Jeff, you can play in the first match tomorrow, against Owen Hart, the two of you are relatively familiar with each other..."
In the stands not far away, Bai Quinn was shirtless, with a large towel on her head, sitting in the shadows.
Randy, who was inquiring about the news from the front, came back and said, "The first match was changed to Jeff Hardy vs. Owen Hart. Vince McMahon thought Jeff's younger brother didn't perform well enough, so the doubles match became singles."
"Who am I?"
Randy turned to look at the ring, "After these two RB women fight, it's your turn..."
As if in response to Randy's words, a scream shot through the gym. A fat woman in purple clothes on the ring grabbed the hands of another long-haired woman in a gold wrestling uniform from behind, stared at her opponent's back with her knees, and pulled her hard. The opponent's arms were folded behind her back, and the tortured long-haired woman screamed.
Randy joked: "These RB women are really ruthless. Compared with them, the Hart girls are like dancing."
Bai Quinn knew who Randy was talking about. Diana, the second daughter of the Hart family and a contender for the WWF women's championship belt, had a relationship with Randy when she first debuted, and it was she who helped connect the master and apprentice. Vince McMahon's.
Randy changed the topic, "However, this type of RB woman will not be welcomed by the American audience. The market will teach Lao Mai a lesson."
Vince McMahon has been suffering from a serious illness recently and has been seeking medical attention. In order to win the battle for ratings, he is trying to bring in RB wrestlers.
It was previously proven that RB's male players are not suitable for the WWF stage, and now they are making plans for female players.
The two women in the ring, Asari (Mami Watanabe) in gold wrestling uniforms and Aja Kong (Rika Shitoji) in purple uniforms, are both important players of the RB Wrestling Alliance. Tomorrow they will appear on American TV for the first time Take the stage.
Bai Quinn trusts Randy's judgment. Randy is familiar with this industry, knows the audience's preferences, and understands the wrestlers as a group better.
The practice match between the two women came to an end, and Vince McMahon stepped forward to lecture them as usual, pointing out their shortcomings and giving them suggestions for improvement.
The RB women bowed and shouted "hi" one after another. Despite the cultural gap between the two parties, such actions and expressions made Lao Mai extremely happy and happy.
The two women went backstage, and the staff beside Lao Mai picked up the microphone and shouted: "Quinn Bai! Sean Waterman!"
The one who was arranged to fight Quinn Bai was "Kid 123" Sean Waterman, who had collaborated with him in ECW.
Sean climbed onto the ring, but he didn't see the familiar football player-looking Quinn. There was only a big man walking slowly from the dimly lit stands. He looked like Quinn.
When the person came out of the shadows and pulled off the big towel covering his head under the light, Sean was frightened and took a step back. Many staff who were paying attention here also trembled in fright. Only Lao Mai's eyes were shining...
I saw that Bai Quinn's entire face was painted black from her chest up, shoulders, neck, and her eye sockets were highlighted with white eye shadow. Four white fangs were painted under her nose, covering her chin and lips. There were also painted on her chest.
Six white fangs pointing upward, matching the upper and lower parts, like a huge black mouth with white teeth exposed.
There was a wig on his head, and there were more than a dozen black braids as thick as a finger. The ends of the braids beat with his steps, like agile poisonous snakes.
"Medusa!" a staff member blurted out when seeing this look for the first time.
"Idiot, it's the Demon Prince!" another person corrected.
The Demon Prince is Bai Quinn's new look in WWF. He is so cool that he has no friends, and he can also cover up his original identity. No one can recognize from this jet-black face that he is for "
Vogue" model who has taken underwear photos.
It was also the first time that Mai saw Bai Quinn's new look, and immediately decided to add chicken legs to the makeup artist. A similar image has never appeared in the WWF ring, and it will definitely be welcomed by young people!
Today's trial training is to rehearse the back-and-forth confrontation between the wrestlers according to the content of the script. There is no need for any empty cutscenes or to mobilize the atmosphere. Bai Quinn jumped on the stage and immediately met with "123 Boy"
A scuffle broke out.
After playing for just two minutes, Lao Mai stopped the practice and called Bai Quinn and Randy to go to the stands, leaving "Kid 123" alone in the ring in a mess.
Lao Mai likes Bai Quinn's style so much, and since Bai Quinn is a big man who suits his taste, and his skills are not bad, he needs to finalize the exclusive contract as soon as possible.
The master and apprentice followed the pre-agreed negotiation strategy, with Randy taking the lead and Bai Quinn stepping up at the critical moment, revealing his identity as an actor and model.
Progress step by step! Even though Lao Mai is a master of negotiation, he still got tricked. His psychological defense dropped again and again, and finally he refused to let go on this condition:
Bai Quinn became the exclusive wrestler of WWF, but WWF could not interfere with Bai Quinn's other work other than wrestling.
The image of "Devil Prince" is shared by WWF and Bai Quinn and cannot be used for other commercial purposes unless both parties agree.
Bai Quinn has no basic salary. He plays at least 12 games for WWF a year. The salary for a single game is 16,000 US dollars. The opponent, competition format and related plot all require Bai Quinn's consent.
When appropriate, WWF is allowed to use Bai Quinn's other identities to create hype, but both parties know that the mysterious identity is a one-time hype theme and can only be used at the most critical moments.
Lao Mai was very dissatisfied with this agreement and even felt quite aggrieved.
But the situation is stronger than the situation. Since the launch of WCW Nitro in September, the ratings of WWF programs have been declining. Mike needs new "hot spots" to retain the audience, and even introduced RB wrestlers.
It shows that he has begun to run out of skills.
In addition, he is afraid that Bai Quinn will immediately switch to WCW. Eric Bishev will definitely agree to these conditions without hesitation. Eric Bishev is just a manager. As long as he can increase the ratings, when he spends the boss's money, it is
It won't hurt.
So even though Bai Quinn's single-game salary was close to The Undertaker's $18,000, Lao Mai still gritted his teeth and accepted it.
Here, Bai Quinn called his lawyer to come to Boston to sign the contract. On the other hand, Lao Mai sat in the stands and calculated:
"There are twelve games a year, six of which are on PPV (paid events), and six of which are on Raw, which is a warm-up before PPV. I will definitely not be able to catch up with the last PPV of this year, and the promotion has already started, so it can only be placed on next year.
January's "Royal Rumble" is on.
The first show is scheduled for tomorrow. Well, this one will be in 1995. There will be a warm-up show in January, and then the "Royal Rumble"...
Who should I arrange to play against him? ‘Boy 123’ will definitely not work, I need ‘Demon Prince’ to become famous once he appears on stage!
M-Fxxk, who is that woman? She is so hot...
He needs a big name to support him! Only then can he be worthy of my sixteen thousand dollars!
'Heartbreak Kid' Sean Michael is injured, and Hart wants to bring Jeff Hardy...can he only be used? I originally planned to let him show up before the "Royal Rumble"..."
With the decision made, Mike stood up and walked to Jim Ross, the announcer, screenwriter and personnel manager, and whispered: "JR, help me ask Steve if he can go on stage tomorrow? I need him!"
JR immediately understood the boss's intention, looked at Old Mai, then turned to look at the young man standing on the phone at the top of the stands in the dark, and asked: "Vince, are you sure? Let Steve and that kid? He's only two
Ten years old..."
"You also broadcast his game half a year ago. Do you still remember how you evaluated him in front of me? His technique is a little rough, but his brain is very good. The most important thing is that the audience just likes him.
If you look at his current performance, his skills have obviously improved. This kid has great potential! Go and arrange it..."
JR wanted to say that it was actually not half a year ago, but what happened in August, but Michael was called away again. This time it was the wrestler Mark Mero who took away Michael.
Mark Mero wore a hood to avoid being recognized, and once again dragged Lao Mai to the empty stands, where a woman with a hot figure sat. Although the temperature of the stadium was not high, she still took off her coat,
Exposing two hemispheres and long legs in stockings.
"Mr. McMahon, this is my wife Rena... I'm here to tell you that I won't be able to come to you at the end of this month. WCW has arranged a championship match for me. I am very likely to win the World Television Championship.
Television Championship, WCW's most important title)..."
We've made a deal and want to regret it again?
Vince McMahon was displeased, "What do you mean? I've already offered you double the salary WCW offered you, and there's also a deposit..."
"No, no, Mr. McMahon, you misunderstood. I thought, since I have decided to come, why not come with the championship belt?"
When he thought about this situation happening, Eric Bishev looked furious, and a bad smile appeared on Lao Mai's face.
"You're great, Mark, you're great! I'm optimistic about you!"
Mark also smiled and said: "Mr. McMahon, you are an honest businessman. I took your deposit and promised that you will do what you want... In order to keep communication between you and me at any time and increase our mutual trust,
I hope you can arrange for my wife to work in the WWF, whether as a broadcaster or on stage, she can be competent, or she can also do clerical work..."
"That's easy to say! I'll report to the company next week!" Lao Mai agreed on the spot.
"That's good, but... I came here with a belt, after all, it's a bit... not very authentic... that..."
Mark spoke hesitantly, but Lao Mai had already guessed what he meant.
"One hundred thousand dollars! I'll give you a bonus! One hundred thousand dollars!"
Mark felt satisfied with the price, took his wife to say goodbye and left.
Before leaving, Mark's wife said: "Mr. McMahon, I will come to report to you next week. By the way, so as not to let people know that Mark's wife came to WWF, I have already thought of a stage name for myself, 'Sable'
It means sable.”
After that, she picked up the mink coat on her seat, swung her hips and walked down the stand. She saw Lao Mai getting very angry, but she had to suppress it and continue working.
The next day came in a blink of an eye. We don’t know how Lao Mai got angry, but Bai Quinn’s anger was in urgent need of venting!
Due to the change of the schedule, Bai Quinn no longer played against "123 Kid" Sean Waterman, but replaced him with a bald man.
This Texas bald guy who calls himself "Stone Cold" keeps cursing and swearing on the court, like a street kid, and Bai Quinn must always pay attention to his injured leg and avoid hurting him with every move.
