[Hylian]

XWE Wrestlers, this is the Press Conference for Golden Road: "Where Champions are Born." You can say anything you wish to say to the reporters whom are reporting our prestigeous event. One Promo only please, and this is not a nessesity, just something most of us enjoy doing. I will make a statement bringing information of the matches and the stipulations of said matches. Thank You.

[Van]

*The crowd cheers as today marks the coming of Golden Road, the biggest stage of them all. Fans and reports alike stand on the concrete as the podium announcer introduces himself to the crowd*

Matthew Benedict: Good evening, everyone! Welcome to the XWE's Golden Road Press Conference, where matches will be announced, followed by Golden Road, which is 4 days away!

*The crowd cheers and whistles, showing their excitement of being on the selected team to witness and take notes of today's great happenings*

Matthew: Our first superstar...

*Matthew turns to the side, exposing his bruises and gashes from last week's Chi-Town Beatdown from Van Samanya. Matt looks down at the card, and fears the name*

Matthew: Van.

*He says quickly, and runs off the stage as Van comes up from the other side slowly, stepping up the stairs with his hands in his pockets, thumbs on the outside as his dark appearance causes the crowd to die down a bit. Van takes the podium and looks at the crowd*

Van: Um...

*The crowd waits for Van's words, as they've come from all around the globe, purchased tickets, ride airplanes, taxi's, limos, cabs. They stand, waiting for Van to say something. Anticipation builds as nothing continues to happen, but he stands looking at people in the crowd, not finding the words*

Matthew: Well?

*Van glares at Matthew, making him back off a bit.*

Guy in crowd: Say something!

*Van looks at the guy with a "don't tell me wtf to do" look, and decides to drop a one-liner*

Van: You're all ugly...

*The crowd looks at each other in confusion*

Van: But yeah...thanks for coming out...or whatever...

*Van walks off the stage as the crowd is left in awe*

[Hylian]

*After Van Samanya's words of wisdom, he is walking away from the podium. Hylian walks next to him and they stop and look at eachother. They exchange some words off-mic, looking confident and angry. Van walks off and Hylian stares at him until he is out of sight, then he makes his way up to the Podium, the cameras flashing all over the place.*

Many reporters start asking questions simutaneously, none of them are audible

Hylian- Settle down, settle down, I have some information for you concerning Golden Road.

*All goes quiet*

Hylian- Now, there have been several questions concerning the rest of the Golden Road matches.

One female reporter shouts out
What is the story with the mystery wrestler?

Hylian- Well, it has been confirmed that this "mystery wrestler" is a wrestler who has worked for XWE before. He is a great wrestler and it is an honor to have him back in the XWE. Now, this man does not wish to reveal his identity until Golden Road, and you will see him compete with 4 other wrestlers. Yes, 4, in a Money in the Bank Ladder match. The Money in the Bank is a certified title shot at any given PPV for any given Championship, in any given match of their choice, for up to one year. The day after Golden Road 2008, this is void.

Several reporters start shouting out again
Who is in this match?

Hylian- The following competetors for this briefcase are:
"True Underdog" Lupo Roland
Austin"The Shredder" Sheilds
Wei-Yan
Mr. Poku
and the Returning Wrestler.

Hylian- Any other questions? *Several reporters raise their hands* Yes, you mam.

Mam- Mr. Hylian, what about the match between the Contenders for the XWE Middleweight Championship, The Platinum Warrior and Gravedigger?

Hylian- Good question. Well, The Platinum Warrior is always been a great friend of mine, and last week when he came up to me in my office, asking for a special match between himself and Gravedigger, I couldn't refuse. So, ladies and gentlemen, the match for the XWE Middleweight Championship is...a Buried Alive Match.

Hylian- Now, one more question.

Male Reporter- What is this Iron Ladder Match between you and Van Samanya?

Hylian- Ah, I am glad you asked me that. The Iron Ladder Match was created for Van and I, this match has never taken place before in an XWE Ring. It is a timed Ladder Match, but you try to get as many XWE items from the cascading rope from above. The one to have the most, wins. Now that is all from me today, I will see you at Golden Road in Madison Square Garden.

Hylian turns and walks off the stage, cameras clicking as he waves to the crowd and disappears behind the curtain.

[Nick]

*After Hylian's time on the podium, and announcements, the stage gets dark for a moment and then Mischeif walks up to the podium. Mischeif pulls a cigarette out and lights it up.*

Reporter 1: Sir, can you please put that cigarette out? God damn.

Mischeif: Do you want me to speak or what?

*Mischeif shrugs it off and flicks the cigarette onto the man's suit. The man just looks at it in disgust and begins to ask his question.*

Reporter 1: Uh, thanks. May I take the first question? Alright then, what is your plan against Big Pappi?

Mischeif: Jesus fucking christ, don't let me say yes or no...is this live? Right. Yeah well, way to pick out the most obvious question. What's my plan? I have no plan really, since I just basically killed...oh...no plan.

Reporter 1: Well okay. If you win the match, who do you think you will face for your title?

Mischeif: I swear to god I'm going to burn this place down for such fucking obvious questions...oh, who? Well you know, the dude who gets the #1 contender. Or the genius who cashes in his Money in the Bank opportunity. That's like if you know, he wants to face me.

Reporter 1: One more question, what if Pappi wins the match?

Mischeif: Why would you ask a lie like that? Suck bullshit.

*The first reporter sits down, frustrated and angered. Another one pops up.*

Reporter 2: What do you...

Mischeif: SESSION OVER.

Reporter 2: I didn't get to ask..

Mischeif: What do you want me to do about it? I don't like you, so go fuck yourself.

*Mischeif exits the arena, and the crowd is in confusion and in shock with all of the profanity thrown down.*

[willstringer]

Matt Benedict stands in a hallway of some run down building with the camera man shifting from one foot to the other as if he has to go to the washroom like some little kid. Somewhere in the background something falls and makes a horrible squishing sound. Matt gulps down his spit and the camera man moans as he looks at the front of his pants. Fear has these two men on edge and they will never be the same as the big man appears directly in front of them.

Matt actually screams like a girl and drops his mic.

GRAVEDIGGER: "Pleasant surprise Matthew."

BENEDICT: "I need to ask you what your thoughts are on Golden Road."

GRAVEDIGGER: "You have asked and I will tell you. Golden Road will be my night of domination. Golden Road will show everyone here in this company that I am the one who will be respected either through fear or by other means. Those other means I will not tell you but if it is anything that has to do with making you piss your pants well I'll take that as well."

BENEDICT: "So in other means you will try to bring this company to the ground like you have done so before?"

Gravedigger somehow glides over the floor towards Matt and grabs him by the throat.

GRAVEDIGGER: "That was a mistake Matthew. I intend to make XWE the greatest federation in the world and it is people like you who makes it fall apart because you twist what we say around to make yourself look good. Now that you have said your little piece I have a question for you Matthew. How does it feel knowing that your life is in my hands?"

Matthew begins to squirm in Gravediggers grip and he makes gagging sounds as he tries to get air into his lungs and the camera man doesn't even move he is looking at the pale faced Vanessa standing beside Stacy. Both of them are smiling and Matt falls to the floor gasping and crying for air. The camera man still doesn't move and he flinches when he feels Vanessa's hand on his shoulder.

GRAVEDIGGER: "Finally a man that understands his situation. I intend to win the up coming match and I will have that title even if I have to kill them to get it!"

Scene fades as Vanessa licks the camera mans exposed throat and Matt manages to get to his feet only to get covered in blood.

[Mistah Poku]

*Mr. Poku is carried by his butlers up to the podium. They clean his shoes and the mike. One fetches him some coffee. Mr. Poku spills the incredibly hot liquid on him, demanding iced coffee. The butler bursts into tears and runs out of the building. He is promptly replaced by another butler who gives Mr. Poku iced Coffee.*

Mr. Poku: I'll take questions now.

Reporter 1: Yes, You were just announced to be in the MITB ladder match at Golden Road how does that make you feel?

Mr. Poku: This match was made for me. I can't possibly lose! I've got all the money in the bank these days you see. My stock rose last night. It won't be easy without a little help
*He nods to his butlers. Each look taken aback and refuse to make eye contact with him*

Reporter: What about the superstars in the match?

Mr. Poku: All I've seen compete before. The mystery wrestler is completely obvious and only a fool couldn't guess it.

Reporter: Well then who is he?

Mr. Poku: I have no idea. He's obviously going to have trouble with ring rust. He won't be able to compete at my level. None of them will. As a former world champion, it is my duty to always put on the best show. Not for the fans but to show them backstage why this company keeps getting revived. Golden Road is our biggest event. In fact I'm sponsoring it. I've put a lot of money into it and in order to make a profit, I'll have to put on a damn good ladder match.

Reporter: Why is it always about money?

Mr. Poku: Cut the chatter
Cause if you ain't talking money then you're talking don't matter.

*Mr. Poku ShaneMcmahon dances off the podium as his butlers sweep in front of him.*
