The BBW Show opened cold, no pyro or entrance themes, whether it was for the main show or for the person standing in the middle of the ring, amidst boos and BBW Chants. A hectic feel was in the air as the fans began to get hyped up for the last show before Spring in the Ring took place next. But before fans could even begin to consider a pay-per-view event, they had to sit through some announcements being made by the man standing in the center of the ring.

[Ladies and Gentlemen, please welcome the CEO and Owner of BBW, as well as the General Manager of Monday Massacre, Kelly King 2 . 0]

The boos were focused on the center of the ring following the announcement by the bell keeper, as King stood in the ring in his complicated and extraordinary suit. He shook his head in shame, being showered in boos as he was. His shame, though, was felt for the audience and not for himself. The poor, disgraceful and disgusting public, somehow still considering King to be the bad guy in all of this. King was holding his trusty dagger, the microphone. The item that made his words weapons, and the one thing in all of his career that he'd been able to trust with all of his heart. Kelly King looked around the arena, trying to let the crowd burn itself out on the boos he was receiving, so that he could finally make his announcements.

"Now... last week, we all saw... well... Perhaps we all experienced a rather disturbing event that I, for the sake of the company, once again, have taken full responsibility for. I don't want to try to ignore what happened, or even remotely beat around the bush. What happened happened, and if not for my timely intervention, could have gone a completely different direction. In my good conscience..." The fans boo'd louder, taking issue with the idea of King's conscience being all that reputable, "I could not allow Freakshow and his little side show of misfit wrestlers deliberately and purposefully infect another human being with a disease on live television."

Many fans were thankful, including the HBO representatives. Other fans were actually rather disappointed that such a hardcore display had been stopped in the middle of the festivities. Savages.

"Now... I promised that night, in a rather ungraceful way, that there would be consequences for what had taken place, and I assure you, just as I have assured the lockerroom and the agents from HBO, our wonderful and benevolent network, that I have come to dole out those consequences right now. They are not negotiable and they are final."

"Firstly, I will handle the case of Mark Laundre. Mark Laundre assaulted not a security guard, but a union protected employee. Last week, he sent a man to the hospital, and sent our company into some very serious financial worries with union lawsuits. After an immediate and hefty settlement, those lawsuits are over. I am, of course, forced to find a way to pay for all of these settlements, which is why every single employee, including myself, will be taking a 5% paycut in order to pay off this man's settlements and medical bills. Except, of course, for Mark Laundre. Mark Laundre will be taking a 100% paycut for an undetermined amount of time. You see, I know people like Mark Laundre, and people eerily and comically similar to Mark Laundre. I know for a fact that a man like Mark Laundre cannot be punished in a contemporary sense. He doesn't think about time off as a punishment, so suspending him is useless. He doesn't consider those types of things. He may not even really understand the monetary implications... but he will understand the terms of his non-payment. Mark Laundre will suffer mentally for what he did because..." King stopped his monologue for a moment in order to pull out a single sheet of paper. "Mark Laundre will continued to be unpaid in BBW until he can solve this High School level Algebra test."

The fans laughed loudly at the punishment, but some also groaned, worried that the rest of King's punishments would be extremely light-hearted and not serious at all.

"Next up on my list, moving right along, is our feathered friend Kujaku. The man who caused the implosion of events that led to this little punishment session. Now, last week, Kujaku made it a point to show off his fancy diplomatic immunity documents to the security officers who tried to aprehend him that week. But, somehow, Kujaku forgot a few things about his diplomatic immunity. Things that myself, and my lawyers, were very happy to refresh his memory on. The first and foremost one being Article 42 of the Vienna Convention. A Diplomatic Agent shall not, in the receiving state, practise for personal profit any professional or commercial activity. His green card is superceded by this Diplomatic Immunity, and therefore he is in violation of Article 42. And then of course there is the fact that his breaking the law via ASSAULTING Mad Dog in the middle of the ring, only protects him from the country's legal jurisdiction. It does not prevent me from replying by having him declared persona non grata in BBW and the United States. We no longer recognize him as a member of his diplomatic mission, whatever vague and indeterminable mission that was."

"Now, I tell you all of this, simply to lay down the law that I will not accept any kind of insubordination. I am King in name and title of this company. And what I say goes. As his punishment, rather than suspending him or firing him, things that his "diplomatic immunity" do not protect him from, I have decided to make him defend his OECW Championship contendership tonight against the man called Trent. Good luck."

King took a moment to catch his breath, as the next few announcements were the big ones, and fans knew it in a way. Specifically in relation to Freakshow, but first...

"Now, also involved in that unfortunate situation were a few relatively unknown names in this business. People trying to make their impact by siding with the legendary, and let's not mistake him, he is legendary; Freakshow. Roberto Mendez. Chuck Charleston. Lynn Bryceland. Griffin Steele, and Andrew Mbenga. The FIVE WORLDS united. Good for them. Trying to make their way in the world, I respect that. But just as I stated, I will accept NO insubordination. Charleston and Bryceland? They gave up peacefully. I am not an unfair man. These two, they gave up, they will be spared my wrath. They listened to instructions."

"Griffin Steele and Andrew Mbenga... They both had to be restrained. Like I said, I can understand how these two would be trying to make their names on the biggest stage in Pro Wrestling these days. I can respect that. I could have been in their position too... that's why I'm only going to fire one of them. Andrew Mbenga... remember this. Because Griffin Steele is fired."

The fans were slammed by that news, the sudden firing of one of the two rookies who had caused issues, they were so shocked they didn't know if they should cheer or boo!

"Which brings me to Freakshow himself. Don't worry, Roberto, I haven't forgotten you. I'll get to you in a moment. Crowley. Freakshow. My friend, I know you're listening somewhere out there. You do not ******** with Kelly King 2.0 I would have thought you might have learned that by now. Your punishment must be more severe, my friend. Firing you won't fix your issues... that is why, I am officially making Mad Dog McLennon versus Freakshow official." The fans went out of control, cheering very loudly at the announcement, ready to see Mad Dog get his retribution.

"On one condition." King added.

The fans boo'd. King adjusted the cuffs on his suit, and his tie until they stopped.

"Mad Dog, you too must be punished. You broke a contract. You hit Freakshow. I cannot let that slide, Freakshow was out of control but you instigated it. That is why your punishment and Roberto's punishment have been lumped into one match. In order to face Freakshow, you must defeat Roburto Mendez at Spring in the Ring. Roberto... I'm sure you've figured out by now what your punishment is." King said with a smirk on his lips, sinisterly booking Roberto's decisive end, if the odds were to be believed.

Fans were not pleased with Mad Dog having to jump through a hoop, but at the same time, him getting his hands on Roberto seemed to whet their whistles quite a bit.


"I've talked enough for now, but later in the show I will have a major announcement to make regarding Spring in the Ring, so make sure you watch well into the second hour. And everyone in the back. Remember who you work for. You work for BBW. You work for HBO. But, as usual, as it has always been, as it shall always be... all must serve me. The One. True. King."

King flipped the mic out of his hand and then walked to the back as the first match was set to begin.
