![]() January 10th, 2001 [The scene opens to a Jonathan Storm commercial.] Storm: This is Jonathan Storm from the HWF, reminding all you kids out there not to do drugs. Not only do drugs ruin your life and hurt your friends and family, but they're just too damn expensive. Save that money and buy my CD. [The scene fades out, and the Commissioner’s Corner opening is played. Shawn Collins is already sitting at his desk. A video monitor is playing something. The camera fades into the contents of the video. Jonathan Storm is speaking, cutting a promo for Commissioner’s Corner.] Storm: First off, Shawn...I want to say WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU THINKING BOOKING ME IN A BLT MATCH?! You wanted a top performance from me, but you made me a laughing stock! I'm utterly embarassed at my performance, and you should be ashamed of the low ratings my segment got. *sigh* What do I have to do to get some fair play restored in the HWF? I've already beaten your former World "Champ", Jayson Starr. I rightfully should be facing your stars like Lance Sterling, or Michael Trey! Shouldn't I? NO!!! You've got me booked against Chris "Just call me Christina Aguliera" Davidson. The man who wants to be Jonathan Storm... [He takes a deep breath and sighs. In his own words, he's trying to "balance his karma".] Storm: Alright, Collins. I trust your decision...but you better not screw me over. This weekend, Davidson's got another thing coming if he thinks "The New Pop Sensation" is going to be a pushover. He's got a LOT of things in store for him if that's what he thinks. [The video fades out, and the scene is back to Shawn Collins sitting at his desk.] Shawn: Jonathan Storm worries too much. But this week, he’s in a match Johnny Drake set up. It wouldn’t have been that way if I had set it up. If I set it up, it would be Jonathan Storm and Silky Palms against Chris Davison and Kyle Solomon with me as ref. But Drake had to switch the teams, and stick Mayhem in to ref with me! Damn the politics. One day... one day... Anyways, we’re gonna cut to commercial, and then we’ll be back with our SPECIAL guest for the day. You’ll see when you come back. [Commercials.] Shawn: Our special guest will be here soon. But first, I’m going to show you all a video clip. This past week, an HWF fan went to see Trevor Lasek. We sent over an HWF Cameraman, Kevin Bradley to tape the segment. He may have broken the law to get into the hospital, and might have made some rude comments about some HWF wrestlers. But, hey, fans are allowed to do that, right? Anyway, here’s the segment. [ We open in a parking lot where many ambulances are pulling up and wheeling in patients on gurneys. As one ambulance pulls out of the parking lot a 1967 jet black Oldsmobile 4-4-2 pulls in. The camera settles on the car which has tinted windows in the mid 80's, a scoop on the hood, the back end is jacked up just a little bit higher than the front. It has red Ralley sports wheels and red pin stripes across the side. The camera stays focused on it until it parks in the lot. The door swings open and a man in his mid-twenty's at about six-three or six-four, an weighting around 250 normal build, with flat top style dyed blonde hair ,and black shades. He steps out of the car. He has on dark blue Levi jeans with the knees ripped out and a black leather jacket that’s unzipped. Under his jacket he wears a black T-shirt with the HWF logo on the front. The camera rushes over to him...] Cameraman: Are you the dude I'm suppose to meet here? [ As the camera gets closer and the man removes his sunglasses.] Man: Sure am, The names Fan. Cameraman: Fan, never heard of ya. How did you get some air time when I've had stars lined up for weeks? Fan: Man, check this out I'm Da Fan baby. All I had to do was make afew calls and buda bing buda boom here I am. Cameraman: Yeah whatever, one other thing why are you here? Fan: Well I'm just here to show my respect for the HWF superstar Trevor Lasek after what happened to him. He took quite a spill the other day thanks to Diam....Renegade. What a match first he get chokeslamed through an electrified cage. Then Renegade hits that huge Frog Splash off the ladder ,which I thought would be it, but not in the HWF oh no. Renegade decides he needs to hit the Fist of Rage through two tables and a huge pile of glass, thumbtacks, and chairs. This was almost as diliberate a move to end Trev's career as when Silky got his neck broke from the leg drop on the chair off the top. That was a tiem of great loss for the HWF, but atleast Silky came back from it. Just as Trev's gonna come back from this. [ Fan looks at his watch.] Fan: Speaking of time how about we head in there before visiting hours close? [ Fan hits the alarm on his car and makes his way into the hospital. He walks to the front desk and waits for a few minutes for a nurse.....he waits a few more minute......after five minutes he gets a bit irate.] Fan: Hey....Little service here!..... Hey you over there. [ Fan points at a young fine looking nurse. She looks up at him.] Fan: Yeah you...Come here for a minute. You aint doin nothin, come here and tell me what room Trevor Lasek is in. [ The nurse walks over to the desk where Fan’s at.] Nurse: Terry Masters you say. Just a second, I'll look.... Fan: No honey I says, I says, I says TREVOR LASEK!!! The HWF star. Nurse: Unless your a co-worker or family I can't let you in due to his condition. Fan: I'm a co-worker... [ Fan winks at the camera] Nurse: Well I've never seen you on the show and my husband is a huge fan. ? Fan: My names Kraven Morhead, this is my first run I 'm new. I was sent here to see Trevor. Besides why else would I have an HWF cameraman with me? [ Fan points at the Camera] Fan: Show her your ID will ya... [ Camerman lifts up an ID badge thats on a chain around his neck] Fan: See now can I get his room number?? Nurse: Oh of course Mr. Morhead. Lets see here... [ The nurse types in Lasek, Trevor on a computer] Nurse: Oh here you are number 542.Thats on the third floor. Take the elevator down the hall. When you get to floor three take a right and you cant miss it. Fan: Oh great thanks, tell you husband to keep watching. [ Fan walks off down the hall , followed by the camera. He looks back at the camera and smirks before he burst into laughter.] [ They stop at the elevator. Fan pushes the button and the elevator doors open. Five people get out and Fan steps in.] [Fan pushes the third floor button.] [ "DING"! The elevator door swings open and Fan steps out through a group of people getting in. Fan hangs a right and starts to walk] Fan: Lets see now, what number was he in....oh yeah five-forty-two. Man, its gonna be so cool to see this dude right up in person. Five-forty-two, here we go. [ Fan opens the door and walks in to Trevor's room. Trevor is laying there hooked up to a vitals monitor. There is a chair still siting by the bed and afew cigarette butts on the ground, from Vic. Fan walks over and sits in the chair.] Fan: You know its odd to see him laying here. After all the suicidal shit he's done and walked away from. When you see a man jump off balconies and ladders, not to mention light himself on fire over and over and over again, yet always get out without major harm. You kinda start to think he's immortal. You think he can't be taken out. He was just starting to come into his own around the HWF. Then some bull shit like this happens. I can understand wanting to show how bad you are Renegade, but what is the point of trying to end a mans career? And stupidly you tried to end this mans career. Trevor Lasek a member of the Anti-Heroes. You do know Renegade that most likely they're gonna try and kill your ass. As a long time watcher its my expert opinion that Vic is probably gonna make what he did to Starr look like a cakewalk to what he does to you. And you know what I don't blame him. You took out a man that Vic considers a friend. A friend, do you know how rare that is for Vic to find? This man pushes everyone away from him, which I can understand. Look what happened to his wife, then when he lets another get close this happens. What a life, what a living hell. I don't understand how he goes on. He seems to use the HWF as a crutch to hold himself up yet the HWF staff hates him, most HWF fans hate him, alot of the wrestlers hate him. I guess that just goes to prove that he feeds off all that hate. Anyway, Vic I can't wait to what you and the Anti-Heros do now. As for you Lasek I think you might like this. [Fan pulls a folded up orange shirt out of his jacket. Fan opens it up to show that it has the letters "CPB" on it. Fan lays it on Trev's chest and shakes his head. Fan walks out the door. The scene fades to black on our fallen Canadian hero Trevor Lasek with his typical orange shirt draped over him.] [Commercials.] Shawn: Ladies and gentlemen, an HWF legend - John JUSTICE! ["#1 Stunna" hits the speakers and after about 5 seconds, out walks John Justice. He's got a pair of baggy Sean John jeans with a matching jean jacket on. He goes over to the Commissioner and they do a little handshake then John sits down.] Shawn: Hey John, how's it goin man? How's life been treating ya? John Justice: Oh, damn man, I'm straight. Can't complain for real. Ya know I got married recently...so basically just been chillin' wit' my woman. Shawn: Recently? It's been almost 3? 5 months? John Justice: *Laughs* Yeah man, butcha know how these wrestlin' fans be. They can't remember nothin' from like last week. John Justice: So I gots ta clarify or bring it back up for the peoples. Shawn: Yeah, you're right... they can be idiots sometimes! But how's Tasha? John Justice: Well...I ain't bout ta get inta that witcha cuz I ain't losin' the few fans I got *laughs*. Tasha? Aw, she's straight. Wouldn't you be good if ya got to wake up next ta me every morning? Shawn: I don't think that I would be considered straight if I woke up every morning next to any man! John Justice: *laughs* Ya crazy man. I didn't mean it like that. You know what I'm sayin'.... Shawn: Yeah man, dont worry about it. *Laughs* So what's new in your life man? Anything that's getting you past wrestling? What're you doing nowadays? John Justice: Anything gettin' me past wrestlin'? With my good looks? And ya askin' me a question like that? Come one....*laughs* Naw, for real...I'm just takin' little break from wrestlin' cuz I got burned out of it. Believe it or not, I won the title real quick from my first break. Got up to that main event title match in about like a month or 2. Just kinda got tired of havin' to go out there and wrestle. Know whata mean? Shawn: Yeah man... that's why I don't do it anymore! John Justice: Yeah, butcha runnin' the HWF. Yall doin' a good ass job. Site lookin' clean. Shawn: Well, seeing as I am THE greatest staff member, I'll take that credit! Hahahahaha! John Justice: *smiles* Why couldn't you all get the site lookin' like it does when I was there? Shawn: Because I wasn't there to spice it up! John Justice: That's true, you weren't. Shawn: Exactly! You got any work coming in now? Thinking of working at all? John Justice: Work huh? Matter fact...everybody wants a piece of this hot boy. The HWF is beggin' me to come back an' do some shit, but I dunno. I only wanna go to the big leagues. Know what I'm sayin'? Shawn: Yeah... suuuuurrrrre... how about movies? You interested in making movies? *Laughs* John Justice: Whatcha laughin' at? Think it's funny that I might be able to get inta movies? Shawn: No, I think it's funny that you were talking about all those offers! Movies... I dunno... you think you wanna become the next Lance Sterling? Hahahahaha! John Justice: Naw man...don't wanna be makin' pornos. Ain't my style. Shawn: Oh! Touche! I'll tell him that! John Justice: Am I suppossed to care? He ain't got nothin' on me. Shawn: Chill man... I'm pullin yer leg. John Justice: You know I don't like Lance...then you gonna bring em up...damn... Shawn: Awww... come on... I know you guys love each other! Umm... not literally of course! John Justice: I think he just loves me puttin' my foot up his ass. Shawn: Ouch! Okay... skip that topic! John Justice: Yeah, why don'tcha skip that topic... Shawn: You got any plans for the future, then? Children? John Justice: Kids? Naw...Tasha wants some, but I ain't havin' any kids for a bit. I'm only 23, I don't need to be tied down by kids. I'm tryin' to find out why she wants to have kids when she's all up in modeling and stuff. Shawn: So, no children for John Justice? Do you have any family plans? John Justice: Family plans huh? Well, matter of fact got some plans. Wanna hear em? Shawn: Sure, I guess these people wouldn't mind hearing. John Justice: Well, even though I wanted to come back to wrestling for a bit there, I decided to hang up tha boots. Shawn: And what does that have to do with family? Hahaha... John Justice: Smart ass....means I'm gonna be spendin' more time with Tasha and bein' more of a family man. Damn, I had heard stories about ya bein' dumb and I was tryin' ta help defend ya, but now I'm wishin' I hadn't..... Shawn: Dumb? What are you talking about? You're speaking with the mastermind of the HWF Staff over here! John Justice: I don't care, I don't work there anymore.....*smiles* Shawn: I've got a question that all these fans want to get an answer for. John Justice: Ok, go head wit' it. Shawn: The typical Shawn Michaels kinda question - Would you ever come back for one LAST match in the HWF? John Justice: *smiles* Depends....Who would I be fightin'? If I got a chance to fight for the title probably. But if it was some type of come and draw us some money, I better get a good cut. Shawn: You'd want to be stuck in the ring with that iiiiiDIOT Lance Sterling? Hahaha! John Justice: Yeah. If I was fightin' him, he might have a half way decent match. Shawn: That WOULD be a ratings getter, wouldn't it? What about another Michael Trey vs. John Justice match? I remember those. John Justice: Damn, you got me wantin' to come back a little bit more when you keep tellin' me how I would help out the HWF. I miss it enough already without you remindin' me how great I am. Shawn: Wait... I didn't say anything about you being great. That's MY department! [Shawn smiles and gives a chuckle.] Shawn: Now... you say you miss the HWF. Why don't you come back if you miss it so much? John Justice: Well, ask my woman. She's seen some of the matches I'd been in before I stepped away and was really gettin' worried she'd only be married to me for less than a year at the rate I was goin' at. So she begged me to stop before I seriously got hurt. You know how women are always tryin' ta look out for ya. Shawn: Ummm... sure. But, that's what's keeping you back? Doesn't she care about the joy it gave YOU? John Justice: Yeah, an' like, she want won't stop me from wrestlin' but I'm a do what she wants. If she's worried bout me like that, then she might have a point. Maybe one day it'll be clear for me ta come back. Shawn: Well... this is the new era in the HWF. 2001 will be a big year for the company. We have a LOT of new guys, and are constantly growing. If you were to come back... 2001 would be the best time to do so! John Justice: Think so huh? Well it don't really matter cuz I can comeback whenever. Chaz and Drake said they'd welcome be on back whenever so who knows. Shawn: No one cares about CHAZ and DRAKE! 2001 is Collins' year. It's And you'll see what I mean too. What do you think about the XCW and the Hall Of Hardcore's new inductees? John Justice: Well, I haven't gotten chance to look at the XCW but I'm sure that if you all decided to was up to HWF standards then it outta be fine. The inductees...well, they deserve to be in there but what the hell happened to me? You tryin' ta tell me I'm not good enough to be up in that shit? Shawn: You know what? I think I'll address that to those other idiots in the front office! Really! Me and Bisc said a while ago, that John Justice should be in the HoH! Those were our exact words! John Justice: That's the stuff I wanna hear. I guess I ain't won enough titles or whatever to be considered in the "greats." I don't even care that you're over there bein' a dick gettin' smart wit' me. Ah well, it don't really matter cuz the fans know I'm grat. Shawn: A dick?! Getting smart? Ahh... cammon Johnny... if you think I'm a dick, then you don't know Shawn Collins very well! And what's up with you and the fans? They're just a bunch of etards who happen to cash my checks. John Justice: Ain't for them, we both wouldn't be gettin' paid.... Shawn: Technically, you're getting paid jack shit from them now. So I don't know why YOU'RE sucking up to them. John Justice: Well, I got the hook up from Chaz where he gives me some compensation money cuz he wants ta stay on my good side. So, um...coke on that slap nuts. Shawn: WHAT?! I gotta have a little one on one with Chaz. I mean, what the hell do you get paid for? Stayin on his good side? Bah! It's me you should be worryin about. Aiight, listen. You wanna talk about some of the HWF dudes? I want to hear some opinions. And I'm sure they'd like to hear what you say. John Justice: Aight, go head wit' it. Shawn: J. Simon Rykopathe? John Justice: Ya just had ta start with him didn't ya? Well basically, this man is a little pussy. Back when I won the KoV title, his ass was always runin' it bout how he wanted ta take my title and how I didn't deserve that belt. So when I finally got a chance ta fight em, his ass was out ignorin' me or somethin' but Ihe couldn't be found. So he don't really deserve my attention, so let's just move on ta somebody else.... Shawn: Well, he's not that bad a guy. What about that son of a bitch Extream? John Justice: Well I don't really know him that well cuz he wasn't 'round when I was fightin'. But he's supposed ta be good right? Shawn: He is a great wrestler. But has no balls, just like his "student" Kyle Corman. John Justice: Sound like you got some problems wit' em....I ain't bout ta get in it so just go on.... Shawn: Oh.... Umm... What's his name? John Justice: I don't remember either....who you tryin' ta speak on? Shawn: Umm... Long hair... LIGHTS OUT! BAHAHAHAHAHAHAA! Name slipped my mind. John Justice: OOOOO......you over there talkin' bout Trey I think right? Shawn: Trey... Trey... YEAH! That's him. Another son of a bitch. John Justice: Well, we had a little thing goin', basically it was me kickin' his ass and him givin' me the world title....then I gave him the title back. But ya wanna know somethin' funny bout that match we had where he beat "me" and won the title back? Shawn: Oh... tell me plenty! Anything to tarnish his rep... GIMME THE GOODS! John Justice: Well, the guy he was fightin' wans't really me. Remember how WWF had the fake Diesel and Razor Ramon? Well, that was the HWF's fake John Justice. I was at home chillin' wit' Tasha watchin' the program and here "I" come and lose the title. I was like, what the hell is goin' on in this bitch? But Chaz told me later what was goin' on so I'm straight now. [Shawn's slaps his head.] Shawn: This helps me how? I try to ruin Trey's rep, and you give me a fake John Justice? Wait... WAIT A MINUTE? How could it have been a fake you? You looked just like you! I mean, I spoke with you that day right before the match! John Justice: I think that was one of those like optical illusions. [Shawn scratches his head, then shakes it.] Shawn: Now you're just boggling my mind! Jayson Starr? John Justice: Aw.....my fellow stablemate. He still around here? Shawn: Actually, he was taken out on Suicide this week. John Justice: That's too bad....well, I ain't got anythin' bad ta say bout em. We've always been pretty coo' so ya know, I got no problems wit' em. Shawn: Well, that brings us to the next man... the guy that put Jayson Starr in the hospital - Vic Williams. John Justice: Well like Extream, I don't know much bout ya boy Vic. I mean, it ain't my responsibility ta take care of Jay or watch his back so I can't get mad at Vic. Vic is the legend of the HWF and who the fed is based on ain't it? Shawn: No. The HWF is based on me! Hahaha! What about the newly returned... Lost Soul? John Justice: Man....you keep goin' farther back to people I don't know about. All I know is that people tell me. Somebody was tellin' me the other day that you always know when Lost Soul is comin' back cuz little promos start gettin' put out where everything be gray like and dark...talkin' bout hurtin' people an' shit....so my guess he ain't over that good though he supposed to be a legend. Shawn: What about Lasek? Who's now in a coma at a hospital in London, Ontario. John Justice: There ya go, I know bout his ass....he in a hospital? I mean, I don't like em but I don't wanna see em in the hospital. Probably deserved it though the stupid shit he always did when we would fight.... Shawn: Silky Palms? John Justice: Aw damn....next.... Shawn: Hey man! Don't disrespect my boy like that! What about that raging homosexual Kyle Solomon... who I've yet to ruin... John Justice: Raging homosexual huh? Next.....don't really wanna talk bout no anal astronaut or any rectal rangers that drive on the hershey highway. Shawn: Whoa! Calm down there Johnny boy. Tell me bout Gavin Coens! John Justice: There ya go talkin' bout peeps I don't know again....I hear he's good but that's just what I hear. Shawn: You don't remember The Brotherhood? John Jupiter *cough*The REAL JJ*cough* and Gavin Coens? John Justice: Yeah I remember hearin' bout em but they came like right when I left. Shawn: Actually, they were there before you. Hahahaha. John Justice: I meant there come back ya dick....keep it goin'... Shawn: Lance "The Gayest" Sterling... I know you LOVE talking about him! John Justice: Well yeah....I don't really like him that much and I don't think he be likn' me much but that's how it be....he still in ta makin' pornos? Shawn: Oh yeah! With a vengeance. John Justice: Naw...even though I been talkin' bout him pretty good recently, we actually ok. I mean, I don't hate him and we're finally seein' eye ta eye on some stuff so ya know.... But he is a damn good wrestler, I gotta give em his props....he knows what ta do in the ring. He still ain't as good as me. Shawn: Of course he isn't. Well... what do you think about the Year In Review Awards? John Justice: I thought that it was damn funny I got a vote and it wasn't me either cuz I voted for what's his name....damn I forgot who I voted for...oh well...Kinda hurts my feelings that I didn't win anything...*sniff* [John smiles.] Shawn: I think most of the fans don't remember you because you had such a short run with us. But you accomplished a lot in those months. John Justice: Yeah...I guess....that's why I need ta be in the Hall of Hardcore. I'm the man for that short time cuz I chose to leave, not cuz I sucked or it was a fluke or anything. Plus I left on top...how many of those others did? Shawn: I'm not gonna get into THAT. You think I can remember every HWF Champion that retired? Anyways... we're running short on time... John Justice: Oh...aight my man...do whatcha gotta do... [Shawn stands up.] Shawn: Thanks for being my guest here on Commissioner's Corner, John. I'm sure all of those fans are out having seizures now cause they saw you on TV. John Justice: *laughs* I bet so...thanx for havin' me my man...just glad ta get in the spotlight again. Shawn: Folks, we'll be back after this commercial break. Let's give a round of applause to me! [The crowd boos.] Shawn: I mean, John Justice! [The crowd pops as we fade to commercial.] Shawn: We’re back with my ‘Of The Week’ for the week of January 10, 2001.
Song Of The Week: Shaggy’s ‘Darling Angel’ [The scene fades out to the HWF and CC logos.]
