[April is shown limping, a light trickle of blood streaming down her forehead as she makes her way to the locker room area after her match. The Lethal Specialists Championship is in her grasp. Medical staff have managed to stop most of the bleeding but as they try to do more to assist Song she pushes them away, standing on her own as she makes her way towards the press area to talk to the small gathering of reporters there. An intense stare is in her eyes as she looks around from person to person, none of them interested in asking questions so they incur her wrath.]
April: Does anyone have anything they want to ask? I’m not in a good mood, but I’m here to answer anything you’ve got to ask.
[The wrestler looks around to all of those in the room, which is dead silent. A younger female journalist clears her throat before speaking.]
Journalist: Well, April...We all have been made aware that you have just been challenged to a deathmatch in your title defense. We just want to know what you think of the match choice and if you’ve ever wrestled in a deathmatch before, which, no offense intended, seems to not fit into what you do well at all.
[April stares at the reporter for a moment, not angry but certainly not thrilled by the question either. After a few tense moments she gives a slight nod before taking in a slow, deep breath before speaking.]
I don’t like it. It seems like it’s become a running gag to attack me from behind, throw some stipulation I’ve never even heard of or don’t like on me. But you know what, in a strange way I’m fine with it. I mean, if I was at an advantage all the time, forcing people to tap out, no one would give a damn or buy tickets to the events, right? They crave new excitement, new experiences with this title, and it’s been to me that elevating this beautiful belt has been entrusted. There hasn’t been a truly dominant holder of this yet, and here I am with the opportunity to do so...
I’ve been holding this title for what, about half a year now? And I don’t hide the fact that I’m holding it either. Yes, I want more. I’ve made my intention pretty well known that I want to be LAW Champion, and that I’m looking even beyond LAW to other promotions to win their gold as well. I am a person with honest intentions and I don’t make it a habit to be hard to find. Every single LAW show, every single IJWF show I’m apart of, every time I step in a ring anywhere, I’m open to any challenge for my title at any time.
Why is it that so many people seem to think that’s an invitation to sucker punch me, attack me from behind, try to take me out? I don’t hide, I don’t play dirty, but it seems like everyone who wants to try to take this from me wants to either sucker punch me or play some mind games. Like this crap that happened here tonight with Mikela. I don’t care if she wants to sit there on her ass and do commentary, hell I’ve done it before to scout other people. But, no….she goes and grabs herself a little box of treats and starts whipping my ass, after attacking me from behind, mind you, with steel chairs, barbed wire and light tubes.
I wasn’t conscious when she started talking about the match stipulation she wanted...Some girl managed to let me in on the deal while they were trying to patch me up before I got back here. She wants to have a deathmatch. I don’t think that she really knows what she’s gotten herself into. I’ll admit that I’m not a person that’s necessarily fond of deathmatch style I think it’s needlessly violent, dangerous, and stupid. This is coming from someone who has wrestled in street fights, wrestled in some of the most dangerous kind of matches. Hell, I even had a match in one of my bosses’ mansion!
Improvise.
Adapt.
Overcome.
I may be an Airwoman and not a Marine, but we all learned the same thing. You do what you can to adjust to a situation and you overcome it. I wasn’t that good at street fights, you know? I prefer to wrestle, actually ply my craft instead of hitting people with weapons and the like. But I won that before. I wasn’t that good at ladder matches. I won them too. And to be honest, I’ve never been in a deathmatch. I don’t know anything about it besides seeing clips of stuff on Youtube and stories from people who I know who have experienced them. But guess what, I’m going to win this match too.
Do you know why?
[April slowly raises up her title.]
Because this belt, this title, calls on you to defend it in any situation that may arise, any stipulation, any opponent, any time. I’ve beaten people like Aria Jaxon and Miranda Minors, I’ve wrestled in any kind of match or situation you can think of. Hell at Collision Course I was scheduled to wrestle a brute then got a worthy technical foe instead. If I have to turn up the risk-taking, I will. When I have to get even more technical than I already am as the greatest submission artist in wrestling today, I go there.
But now, this girl has crossed into an entirely different zone.
I don’t like these kinds of matches. I prefer to show off my skill, my ability...BUT WHEN YOU SUCKER PUNCH ME FROM BEHIND, MAKE ME BLEED, YOU ARE ASKING FOR A SIDE OF APRIL SONG THAT I KEEP WELL HIDDEN! YOU WILL HAVE YOUR DEATHMATCH, AND BRING ALL THE TOYS THAT YOU WANT. I WANT YOU TO BRING ALL THE LIGHT TUBES, ALL THE THUMBTACKS, ALL THE BARBED WIRE BOARDS AND BASEBALL BATS AND EXPLOSIVE CHARGES AND ANYTHING ELSE YOU CAN THINK OF. Because I’m going to make you suffer. I’m going to use every weapon, every dirty trick I know to bring you more pain than you have ever imagined. You see, an example needs to be made of you! I want to make sure that people realize no matter what kind of match they propose, no matter how talented, pretty, strong, or dangerous they THINK they are, stepping into the ring with me is NOT the way you want to try to make a big name for yourself. I am going to torture you. And I’m going to submit you. Heh...I don’t even know if tapouts are accepted in deathmatches, I don’t even know all the rules. But at this point, I don’t give a fuck about them. I just know that after Lethal Takeover, it’s going to be a hell of a lot harder for management to find opponents for me to defend this title against.
I’m going to cripple you.
I’m going to make you bleed.
I’m going to retain my title.
AND YOU WILL, DEATH MATCH OR NOT……..JUST…..TAP….OUT.
One other thing...I hope people have not forgotten that my goal of holding this title and the LAW Championship isn’t something that I’ve put on the shelf. Just because I was screwed out of my rightful chance in that championship tournament doesn’t mean that I’ve given up on the dream. I will do something that no woman has ever done and hold both of LAW’s singles championships at the same time, and I will carry our standard of excellence across the wrestling world. Japan, Europe, Mexico, Canada, Australia, I don’t care. When I have my way, Lethal Angels Wrestling will be synonymous with April Song...and both will be synonymous with unadulterated fucking excellence.
That’s all….
