(Damn that was a lot to read then type)

Astrid was tempted to actually speak into the mic just to interrupt the banter going on in the ring. But looking around her and how the fans were eating up the excitement and anticipation of a pending fight, it was viewing gold, something most shows strives for but could only pull off with weakly scripted scenarios.

She turned her glassy brown eyes almost lazily towards Matt Shanahan to look him over again. He was a tall one, a very tall one, it was the first time anyone has ever made her fell like an actual doll. The thought of being treated like a Barbie doll disturbed her. Shaking it off she went back to her phone tapping out the words she wished to say on the screen.

Did someone actually call her phone a speak and spell? She paused at hearing her phone being insulted as such a child’s toy. Sure there was a speak and spell app in there but still she needed it to gain some small form of independence.

Nodding that she was ready she took the mic then after pushing her phone just slightly into the top of her corset she pressed the screen and lip synced with the app, “My my I didn’t know that so many people were on their cycle tonight.”

This earned her a small chuckle at most since the boys had already been earlier declared women. But she merely smiled and continued to 'speak'.

“Obviously this is the first time that I’m meeting you, Mr. Shanahan, and I thank you for your kind words; but I see now that the impression I have made thus far warrants generic praises people hand out when they really have nothing to say. I hope that one day soon I shall change that not just with you but everyone."

She paused to look down at the phone and click the screen to move on to the next part of her speech. "I haven’t really followed your career but I’ve gotten a pretty good idea of how extensive it is and I know something like that a man worked hard to earn. And I can only hope that in the future I may be able to say the same. In all honestly I can’t say anything bad about it and I highly respect that.”

She moved a little forwards so that she could incline her head and look Matt Shanahan right in his eyes. "But it doesn’t mean that I care that much for your personality. What was it that you said that that was how we’re suppose to do a promo? Cheap insults, pump yourself up, and sexual remarks for some canned heat? Okay I think I have this: insult, sex, and praise yourself. Alright let me give this a try.”

She stepped forwards to put herself at distance from the others and more at the center of attention. “Mr. Shanahan, you’ve been doing this for awhile so I can see that you’ve settled into something of a routine coming out to talk like that. I would except something better from a man of your caliber. God of punk? What exactly makes you punk? That attitude? No, that annoying man that blonde singer married had an attitude like that and he was far from punk. Right now, the way you are talking you sound like one of those generic old wrestlers who can only talk about his dominance in the past and bark at the new blood in hopes of retaining that fading glory. I'm just saying.” She smirked.

“Now for the pump and sex right?” She looked around for confirmation earning a few cat calls mixed in with the cheers of approval. She approached the ropes standing before the near camera with feed to the tron and gave a slow roll of her hips then whipped off her skirt revealing the lacy black shorties beneath and the garterbelt that kept the legs of her long boots up. She turned about giving everyone a good view of back and front. “Think of me as the automated goddess of steam-punk! Come into my ring and I’ll happily play with you.” She looked to the camera and blew a flirty kiss.

“Does that work for a promo Mr. Shanahan?” She asked with a smile before removing her phone done for the most part.

"...Daaaaaamn!!"

Karen said as Bianca responded with a soft:

"Atta girl..."

clapping her hands in applause for their quiet rookie.

Yuke was listening in on Astrid's promo, and she raised an eyebrow. Her character was quite interesting to her, as she followed her antics in EWA. She moved her fingers to her chin as she seemed to lean up and listened and watched intently. She crossed her legs and continued listening in.. that is of course until Astrid said the world 'Goddess'

Yuke waited until Astrid was done then stood up, she put her mic to her lips.
"Bravo little toy, bravo." Yuke said as she moved the mic to her left hand and then reached down her chest and pulled out a paper fan as she started fanning herself off.

"Hmm when I said I wanted everyone to show their personality, a little flash a little flair who knew we'd get something so...Ahem, sexual from a doll. However Little Astrid, know this I'm the ONLY goddess in the ring, however if you want know what it's like... I don't mind you being my personal plaything dear. But you should know, I always got grounded for breaking my toys"

Yuke said as winked and then blew a kiss to Astrid..

"Now then, let's see what you others have..."
Yuke said with a smirk.

Matt was... Utterly stunned! He had came out to the promo with no material at all, and was sure that no one would be able to top him. But he had a feeling that Astrid had done just that! He took off his shades, and blinked, looking around at the fans for comfirmation. Yes, he had just been... Served! With a side cole slaw, at that! The God of Punks shook his head, then looked down at the bold woman.

"Well, I'll be damned! She's done a better job than anyone else!... Including me, if I do say so myself!... I've never thought of steam-punk as sexy, but... Damn!... There are few women gifted in the art of speech, and you're clearly one of them!... Aside from the whole talkin' through a phone thing, but you catch my drift. And just so ya know, you can be the goddess to my god, anytime."

Matt gave her another quick wink... Surely feeling like he was a ladies man. But that aside, Shanahan was clearly impressed by the unique woman! He didn't rebuttle or even comment on how she trashed his gimmick, he was too impressed!

"Ladies and gentlemen, give it up for the sexy Astrid Taylor!"

That was one quite of a show going on between Eon, Major, TK and Shanahan. Would be an interesting match to see all of them in a 4-Way dance. Although she is looking forward to Eon against Shanahan that may happen pretty soon!

Sarah was amazed by Astrid Taylor's response... with the help of her phone, because that's something she has never seen before... and it was pulled off so well. Although Sarah is not the type to start stripping down and make fans 'happy', it was still something that caught her attention.

It was her turn now, and she had to say something, even it was just a constant babbling of words that had nothing to do with the subject, but she
was going to give it a shot.

She was given the mic, and put it up to her mouth, "So Mr. Shanahan... Or should I say. God Of Punks? Yeah, that sounds better ehh?

Then she sarcastically says... "Anyways, thank you for your kind words..." Then back to normal. "But I'm not here to show off how pretty I am... to where I need to start stripping down 'til I'm almost naked." Looks to Astrid Taylor. "No offense." Then she starts speaking to the God of Punks. "One of my goals... but not main, is to continue to show the world, that not only the male wrestlers are the dominant force in this industry." Then she points to Yukari Clepsydra. "Over there is one of the best Divas in the wrestling business TODAY!" Pauses for a moment after the clappings for Yuke begin to quiet down before continuing. "Dallas Cruz, Astrid Taylor and I, are definitely going to continue show everyone, that we are NOT only just pretty faces...

The fans applaud, whom most of the ones cheering are females, but the males are also supporting. Sarah then continues... "But enough about us women, let's talk about you, Mr. Shanahan... Now before I showed up tonight, I did a bit of research on you and I'm quite impressed... ya know, youtube and stuff like that. But anyways, you are from Philadelphia ehh? Philly, is a place where I've always admired, due to some certain promotions that started there... Anyways although I may not like you in person as of late... I respect lots of your achievements... For one, creating and winning a Pit of Hell match... I too am a fan of hardcore matches... one brutal match that was! And I most certainly don't fear putting myself on the line either. Or your rivalry with Mike Landry in WWFG... pretty intense ya know? I really can't pick which of your achievements I liked more... But either way, you are definitely one of my new idols... In the hardcore category for that matter...But just so you know, because my pro is Freakshow, sitting over there at the announce table... Yeah, I respect him... but I guarantee you I will be much more better than him... As a person, and in the ring! I think that is all I should say...

She then extends her arm out with the microphone in hand for the next person who wants to speak...

Alt. 1 *If snatched from her hand she will raise an eyebrow and look at them as if she was saying "What the hell is your problem?*

Alt. 2 *If taken normally... No reaction*

After the mic is taken she will go back to how she was normally standing with her feet together and her hands behind her back.

eon slides out of the ring a little ticked at what his sister said about him. he paces the out side of the ring just going back and forth trying to figure out what to say or do. he walks over to the announce table garbs the end and uses his strength to flip it over. that helped him a little with his anger then he leans his back against the guard rail and slides down to a seated position and hits the back of his head on the guard rail out of anger, but he is still pissed of at what Yuki said about him.

T.K. was actually quite interested in hearing Astrid speak, as despite her technically being his partner in this entire competition, he had yet to give any real attention towards her. He ended up being amazed by what he saw as well, he wasn't to impressed by the phone, but the entire thing blew him away. Maybe I should pay her some attention, she seems to have just gotten more attention than I could ever hope to have achieved... The North Carolina native follows up on all of the following statements by everyone else, that basically shared his sentiments on how great her performance was. He moved on to hearing Sarah's statement, which was to him, a bit overshadowed by Astrid speaking before her, but it was good nonetheless.

After this though he notices that Eon has gotten angry, and chuckles to himself. He hadn't expected to be the one of the more cool-headed rookies in this competition, but from what he was seeing, he had managed that. Mere words weren't going to incite the 'Evolution of Man' to do anything close to what Eon was doing.

Dallas listened to Astrid and Sarah complete their promos in silence. Both did an excellent job, in her opinion. Yet, deep down, the competitive side of Dallas did not like being outdone, especially when one stripped down to her underwear (getting quite a reaction from everyone). How on earth was she going to promo up to that level was beyond her. It bothered her, but did a decent job not to show it by plastering that smirk on her face.

Taking a deep breath, she took the mic from Sarah and shot the girl a smile, along with a nod. "I suppose it'll be my turn." With the mic at her lips, she began, "Such great promo's so far, aye? The most...interesting would have to be Astrid, huh?" Dallas held her hand up as the crowd gave their feedback, "Now now, shush, you guys. It's impolite to speak while others are speaking." Some boo'd at her, to which she only shrugged off. "Anyways, tonight's man of the hour is none other than this good-looking hunk of man, Matt Shanahan."

She took a few steps up to face Matt, but kept a respectful distance from him. "Now, Mr. God of Punks, I'm sorry to inform you I'm not very...how should I say...knowledgeable about your career. I feel the only career I should be following is my own, know what I'm saying? But," she held up a gloved hand with her index up, "I do know some of the basics. Let's see...," Dallas tapped her finger against her chin act out her deep thinking. "Well, the most obvious thing of course is that your huge!" She looked him from head to toe, "Dude, you're a ******** beast, and I mean that in the nicest way possible," she said with a chuckle in her voice.

Dallas paced slightly infront of Matt as she spoke, "I recall back in XCW, you competed in the very first Pit of Hell match, to which you came out victorious. And apprently, you've had quite a fued with our host over here," Dallas gestured over to Justin. "You were also in some awesome teams, such as The Punks of Steel and The Punk 'N' Rev Salvation, in which you were the leader. Kudos to you. You've done a lot that has earn you my admiration and respect. And I'm not just saying that to kiss a**. I mean it. Though, pardon me for not taking my clothes off like the lovely Miss Astrid. I'm gonna have to side with Sarah on this one. This is as much as you get to see," Dallas opened her coat enough to flash Shanahan some cleavage before closing it back up, "Though if that offer's still open, I could show you more," she said with a wink. With that, Dallas released the mic to whomever wanted it and took her place back with the other rookies. Hey, it might have been as great as the others, but at least she went through it.

"Sluts," Is Freaks terse comment as Dallas' finishes up her promo "All of 'em but /my/ rookie," Although he wasn't too happy with, what he considered to be Sarah's questionable choice of idols. "...But they are articulate sluts at that," Likely this had something to do with Dallas' and Eons victory over Freak in tag team competition..
PostPosted: Mon Apr 04, 2011 8:29 pm


Matt was amazed! These woman had done amazingly, and were clearly impressing the man. He didn't know who to start with! Looking between Sarah and Dallas Cruz, he decided to go with the woman who came first.

"Sarah, my word... Quite impressive, I must say. But I warn you, just planning to be better than ol' Failshow will NOT get you far. Aim alittle higher... But you're on the right path, no doubt!"

Matt then turned to Dallas Cruz, a look of admiration on his face. These ladies were sure bringing it, like he had never seen from rookies! He raised the mic back up, his eyes glancing from Dallas' "assets" to her eyes.

"And Ms. Cruz... All I can say is... That offer is definitely still open."

Shanahan gave her a wink of his own, before stepping back to the ropes. He rose his microphone up to speak, but stopped himself. The God of Punks looked at the rookies, then the fans, before looking at Justin. He thought for a moment... Before turning around to look at Yuke instead.

"I was going to ask Justn if he thought this promo battle was done, but you seem to wear more of the pants than your bitchy host. So, Ms. Yuke... What do you think? Is this s**t done, or is there something you would like to add?"

"Well Matt, remember I am your boss. I sign your checks. But this isn't about me, or you it's about them. What I want to know from each of them is who do they think should be eliminated and why, and if they had to choose one winner of this competition besides themselves who would it be.."

Yuke said smirking
PostPosted: Mon Apr 04, 2011 8:58 pm


eon slides back in the ring and grabs a mic. "well Yuki you want to know who I think should be eliminated I think T.K. should go I mean he hasn't won a single match and yeah he's good.....and I know he is, but still there is something wrong if you still haven't won a match."

he pause for a minute as he looks around. then he puts the mic back up to his lips.

"And if I had to choose one winner out of the competition I would say I choose my partner Dallas. She is a great wrestler and I mean she is amazing at promos but all and all if I had to lose to some one I would want it to be her."

after he is finished he holds the mic out for the next rookie.

Astrid sighed a little before removing her phone and fumbling to tuck her skirt beneath her arm and type out her response at the same time. Since it was a simple question she did not have nearly as much to type.

'I can not wait until this confounded thing is fixed. This is getting rather annoying.' She thought to herself before finally typing the last word and after looking to see if anyone was about to speak stepped up. Holding the phone and the offered mic she hit the app and once again lip-synced.

"Usually someone would praise their competitors and say how they think they should be the ones to go in a cheap trick to look humble, nice, and get on everyone's good side. But we aren't here for that and that's not how you win." She raised a brow showing her honesty, talking to few people other than her brother had left her social skills rather rough around the edges and incapable of caring of how insensitive though brutally honest she could be.

"And it would be logical to say that I want the weakest or more volatile person to go. But really I would vote for Dallas," She turned her eyes towards the other woman to show that she had not made a mistake in her choice. "I have nothing personal against her, she is a good competitor, but currently according to the previous elimination results she is my greatest competition and has a great chance of winning."

"As for who I would want as the winner... until now I would have said Eon but that outburst told me he's not ready yet. But now I think the winner of this competition should be the Mayo!"

She looked down at her phone the moment the words came out, her brows knitting together in a look of annoyance then huffed causing a small drone of feedback to ring from the speakers. She gave a small apologetic smile before tapping quickly on the keys. "Sorry, typo. I meant the Major."

Eon’s choice brings a grin to the ‘Evolution of Man’s face, he had no care that he had yet to win a match, all that statement did was bring T.K. to be slightly irritated. While he thought about the idea of choosing Eon to be eliminated, the guy, as much as he hated to admit it, was doing better than he was in this competition, so it would be the wrong choice. He didn’t care for whoever the guy though should win, so he goes onto thinking of who he wants to see win, while listening to Astrid give her answer, which was interesting to listen to, and kept his attention before he decides to step up himself and give an answer. “This is honestly an easy choice for me, hell, I bet most of you won’t even guess the name I’m about to say. Major Devestation, not because he’s the worst, nor because he’s the best, but because out of all of us here, he’s actually done something in this business, hell what he’s done might not mean anything here, but honestly, what does he have to gain? Proving that an ex-marine can win this, as I honestly don’t think he will, for one, because I’m in this contest, and I’ll be damned if I let a Marine outshine me, and two, he let numb nuts over there score a pin fall over him. I think that shows exactly how far he’ll get.”

With yet another shot towards the Marine, the crowd is in an uproar of anger, though this hardly bothers the ‘Evolution of Man’, as he spoke as he thought, and he gave all the answer he needed, now who should win other than him, “Something tells me saying no one other than myself won’t cut it here, so let me look for a second…” T.K. looks among his rivals in the competition as well as his own partner, taking a moment to think about it before finally figuring out his answer, “I don’t think anyone should be surprised by this answer, my decision goes to my partner in this place, Astrid Taylor, moments ago she blew us all away, hell she made my statements look like s**t… Not that Yuke hadn’t already torn mine apart anyway.” T.K. typically isn’t one to state someone did better than him, even when he knows it’s true, and he doesn’t really look all that happy to admit it, but he’s satisfied that his partner has impressed him the most, if anyone else should win, it might as well be her due to the nature of the show.

Dallas smiled at Eon's words, yet her smirk slightly fell when Astrid picked her to as her choice to be eliminated. Still, she shrugged. 'Her opinion,' she thought.

Taking the mic and bringing it up to her lips, Dallas spoke, "Alright then. I can see where Astrid is going with that. I don't mind. In fact, I take it as a complimant. As for me, the person I'd say should go home..." Dallas took the time to look at the rookies. This was a really hard choice. She had nothing personal against them, and felt they each had the potential to win. "I feel that Sarah should go." Turning to the said female, Dallas continued, "Nothing personal, love. Believe me, you're a good competitor and all. I have nothing but respect for you, but I feel as if you're missing some personality. Like I said, no offence. Nothing personal, strickly buisness."

Dallas turned her attention away and scoped out the bunch of rookies again. "And as for the winner, I'm gonna have to pull a page out of my partner's book and say that Eon should win this. I've been in the ring with him, and I can honestly say he's one hell of a competitor. I'm sure he's got a bright future ahead of im. Just...learn to control your temper, bro, she said with a chuckle, referencing to his outburst from before.
