Open to Anyone! Match Two: Shinigami Foundation versus Mercedes Vargas and NADIAThe Foundation may be booked early in the show, but the team is still on the rise, so don't put this spot as a downer, because this team is one of the most dangerous in the whole fed. And they face a team that is having their first time together, but they are being thrown together because, well, let's be honest, General Manager Noah Hanson has not been happy with either of their performances as of late, and this a means to motivate them.

Post by Shinigami Foundation on Feb 26, 2021 23:16:25 GMT -5
{The cameras come up and we see both halves of the Shinigami Foundation on a building that overlooks the Elysium Arena. Both men are dressed rather casually for the weather and seem to be in a kind of reflective mood}
Thomas: Sometimes one has to take a step back and enjoy the simpler pleasures in life, and with the breakneck pace that Alex and I put ourselves through each and every day in order prepare ourselves for each and every bit of mayhem that we call our matches..even two living pools of pure genetic talent such as ourselves need to take a step back for a breather.
Alex: That's true partner.
Thomas: Now this week on Dystopia, the Foundation is set to step into the ring against Mercedes Vargas and Nadia. Now normally we would take a dour look at being forced into such an early spot on the card because Alex and I have been working very hard to prove ourselves to this company as we come in each and every show full of enough furious talent that it scares people, so naturally when we heard that we were being put against two scrubs who couldn't care less where they stood in the middle of Los Angles rush hour traffic than to be much more active as wrestlers here in this company, we went to the front office to ask why.
That's when General Manager Hanson asked us to take these two to task, not TOLD but ASKED because he knows that the Foundation's time is money and keeping asses in the seats is something that we do very, very well no matter where we go and so that leads us to our match this week.
The singular most exciting and dangerous tag team in the entirety of World Wrestling Headquarters...against a couple of could've beens who are about to be put through the kind of physical hell that my partner and I enjoy doing all too well.
Alex: While my partner here might have a penchant for being a bit long winded, he does feel the need to fill the gaping silence that our opponents seem to be providing us with. Apparently Misses Vargas and Nadia have been quiet silent these past few days, surely one would’ve thought that you, Mercedaes, with your vast history of title holdings would’ve at least graced us with some kind of despotic tale about how Tommy and I are so inferior to a being such as yourself or some sholock like that, perhaps even going on and on about how great you’ve been in the past.
Much like that little shit weasel Vincent Lyons.
Maybe you are just like Lyons in that you are a little self entitled bitch that you feel that you don’t need to say anything against the big bad Shinigami Foundation that when the camera crews came by for your promos, that you simply waved them away like they were mere specks of lint.
{Thomas makes it a point of raising his left arm up, making a show of inspecting his sleeve, and then brushing off some “lint” as Alex’s face goes a little bit hard as his voice, while remaining conversational, slowly has a hard edge creep into it}
Alex: But we’re not some specks of lint, ladies. We are the mother fucking Shinigami Foundation and while we might not be slinging titles over our shoulders and bragging about bullshit, we are more than glad to show you why we’re called the “singular most dangerous team” in this promotion or any other that we’re apart of.
While the two of you are tagging there in that very arena for the very first time in a short matter of time, Thomas and I have been at this for years.
We’ve hit every single minor league fed internationally from Great Britain to Japan to Germany and back. Hell, we’ve even wrestled for a company in mother fucking Egypt!!
We have worked our asses off to perfect the craft of tag team wrestling and we’ve shown it time and time again here in this company, and while we might not have walked away with the tag team straps at Shogun, what we did do was put this entire division on notice.
And that notice is that when we, not General Hanson but *WE* being Thomas and I, feel that the time is right, is when the World Wrestling Headquarters World Tag Team titles will be coming home across our sexy waists!!
But this weekend, you two ladies have the esteemed honor of getting a first hand close look at what a real tag team looks like and I hope that you survive the experience, because we’ll blow you both the fuck away!
{Thomas then motions at both himself and Alex}
Thomas: You see, ladies and gentlemen, that is what separates us from our opponents this week, dedication.
Ever since the day I decided to become a professional wrestler, I knew that it would require a shit load of determination.
To survive my training under one of the hardest bastards ever to come out of Japan. To make it in one of the biggest and toughest promotions internationally. To time and again be stuck fighting the same people week in and week out, slowly inching my way up the card until finally I got out of the blue hell that was the mid-card and into the main events!
*THAT* is what determination is and that is why our opponents are going to fail.
Because they simply lack what Alex and I have and that’s the only thing that they have going for them in spades.
Now normally we’d put more effort into one of these promos, but I say this with absolutely not one shred of arrogance in my being when I say that the execution of Mercades Vargas and Nadia will end in nothing less than another victory for the Foundation.
Why?
Because when the Pale Riders are about, it’s Doomsday for everyone.
Cheers!
{The two men then turn away from the camera to regard the arena in the background as the screen slowly fades to black}

Choose Your Own Adventure: Todo o Nada (All or Nothing) the Eighth: Hope Springs Eternal, The Second Present Day ♦ S Y R E N E • C A L I F O R N I A
[REC•]
"It's the moment I've been waiting for. So, I just found out that I'm going to be on a double date this weekend and I have to say I'm a little surprised by this."
Our scene opens where Mercedes is seen lying back in a hammock and enjoying the sea air. For a moment, she sits up and positions herself to address the camera.
"Turns out me and Nadia and I will be getting a little familiar with the Shinigami Foundation, Alex Slayer & Thomas Bane. With names like that, how could this go wrong? Now at first I thought we'd probably catch a movie, have a game of midnight bowling, or maybe share sundaes at the local ice cream parlor but instead we're going to be inside a four-sided ring. Not the ideal setting for a first date, but you gotta start somewhere, right?
"In all seriousness, I'm not always seen in tag matches in World Wrestling Headquarters but when I am, it doesn't usually end well, not that I'm complaining or anything. It's just that tag matches for me are few and far between. I don't even remember the last time I was in a tag match, but that's not important right now. I'm less than forty-eight hours from this tag match and I hear the doubters, critics, and naysayers. Some say that this is all but lost, others don't give Nadia and I a snowball's chance in hell in winning this thing, but you know something? That's OK with us because we're used to it. Dystopia will be no different. Depending on who you ask, the Shinigami Foundation are either the greatest tag team in the history of ever, or the most overhyped. Guess which side I'm on today?
"See boys, you're probably under the impression that to beat you it's going to take a little bit of luck and a whole lot of talent. Well, I don't know about that. Because when luck meets preparation, you'd be surprised what can happen on any given night. I will say that beating you two won't be due to luck, it's pretty much expected. Just as how when I'll be standing in that ring expecting you to show up. And you'll look straight into that ring at me. In the handful of battles I've faced since I first stepped foot in this company, not once did I flinch, not once did I back down, and that goes with any opponent I've faced in the ring. You're going to have to give me something more than the usual intimidating tactics for me to even take you seriously, much less anyone else.
"So, Lex, Tommy, on February 28 at the Elysium Arena, bring all the badassery that you have because unfortunately for you Dystopia will end with you as losers. Nadia and I may not have the advantage of working well as a team, we don't have the unidad that you have as a team, but we're going to prove that we're dangerous on our own as well as a team."
Mercedes crosses her arms in defiance.
"And I have this feeling that this is one date you're not going to like very much. In fact, we're going to make sure of it."
