Backstage after All or Nothing 2014 said:We flash back to the night Matt Tastic won the Eurasian Championship. He sits on a bench looking his newly won championship. He can barely believe it. As he does, Mikey Stormrage, the man he just beat comes over to him. Matt stands up feeling uneasy despite the two shaking hands in the ring.
Mikey: Hey, I didn't say it out there so I'll say it here. Congrats on the win. Good job.
Matt staggers a bit from the words. The friendliness is just too shaky for him to grasp. Mikey extends his hand yet again with a large smile decorating his face.
Matt: ….I.... I honestly don't get it. Mikey, when we first faced off, I cut you off when you were saying goodbye to your best friend. I attacked you, insulted you and belittled your friendship. Why the hell did you not attack me? That's what I would've done. That's what anyone would've done. Why didn't you?
Mikey scratches his head, thinking things over before giving an answer. He can't seem to figure out how to put his words together and explain it as Matt stands confused.
Mikey: Well.... Ugh.... I.... You see...... I don't know. I guess that after always being angry and all emo and stuff I just sat down that night after it happened and said “why get mad?”. I mean seriously, it's wrestling. Since when do Pay-Per-View matches not get set up by people attacking and insulting one another?
Matt:…. Umm.... Actually that's why I did it in the first place.
Mikey: You jerk!
Matt: Sorry! But hey, I wanted a title match. And I.... seriously thought you were being all melodramatic.
Mikey: So you trash my party and insult me and BF4L?
Matt:Your what?!
Mikey: My best friend for life, Matt Tastic! All for that belt? What? Do your pants not fit?
Matt: No, you dolt! This title represents a monetary boost! It commands more status in this company and it makes people see what level of performer I am! That's why I wanted it.
Mikey: Greedy jerk.
Matt: Drama queen.
Mikey: Otaku!
Matt: Geek!
Mikey: Farmboy!
Matt: Fatass!!
*GASP*
Matt crosses the line as sudden silence sweeps the scene. Mikey grits his teeth as Matt is on the defensive. No one makes a move adding to the sudden drama of the situation.
Granpa: Boys, would you relax?
Both men break the tension and let the air out as they turn to spot Granpa Tastic.
Granpa: Drop the silliness. Match is over. No need to be so angry. What do you say we go to Taco Bell for dinner?
Matt: Granpa, we aren't kids. What the-
Mikey: YES!! LIVE MAS!
Matt looks at his former adversary with a dull look but the silence is quickly shattered once again. This time by the sounds of a rumbling stomach.
Matt:…...................*grumble grumble* …...Yeah. LIVE MAS!
And so a friendship forged. And a catchphrase was coined. Mikey never festered any hatred towards Matt Tastic. Instead the two simply put it aside and marched on. The anger receded and Matt had no reason to be mad anymore.
A Hospital said:Baez walks the hallway of the hospital where Gordito was checked in. Not too pleased, as he was ordered to apologize for his actions.
Baez: Where the hell? Hey! Where's Gordito hiding at? I've got stuff to do!
After a lot of aggravation and nagging, he's led to the room of his now former adversary. He stands across from Gordito as he lays on his bed watching TV. Baez' face cannot be seen so his own expression remains a mystery.
Gordito: Ah, great. Now what do you want?
Baez:Well, to say I'm sorry. Do you forgive me? Please do. So I can sleep snug and sound at night with a clean conscience.
Gordito: No.
Baez: Oh well. Guess I'll buy Niquil then. Bye.
Gordito: Wait a minute. Get back here.
Baez returns to the room like a scolded child. Humping his shoulders and moaning in complaint.
Baez: What? I'm sorry. For reals now. I guess I did get outta hand.
Gordito: Did management put you up to this?
Baez: Umm.... Yeah? Why?
Gordito: Should've guessed. I'm not gonna forgive you any time soon, man. Look where I'm at. On a bed with bandages with a TV and nothing good on. I can't have my cheap beer because of you. All because you got jealous.
Baez: Well, you stepped over me. What was I supposed to do? Clap and keep the anger to myself?
Gordito: I didn't ask to be put in the Gold Rush Tournament. I simply was put there. You weren't in it wasn't my fault. So why you got mad at me is a good question right now. You never talked to me about it. You simply attacked me.
Baez: Um... Well... Ugh. Guess I did screw up. Tch, listen I really mean it, I'm sorry.
Gordito: Well, I'm not. I get it man. You're frustrated. I would be too. And I don't hold a grudge for it. It is part of the business. We get hurt. We move on. But it wasn't me that overlooked you. That was all management decision. They're who you should've thrown your spat at.
Baez: You're better they said.
Gordito: Well you proved them wrong now. You beat me. With excessive force, but you still did. Like I said, I get it, Baez. That's what this business is about. I'm not gonna accept your apology, but I at least want you to know that I get it. I'm not mad.
Baez: Alright. Thanks then. I'll be off.
Gordito: To do what?
Baez: Since I started in WZCW, I've heard this silly discussion go around so many times. Red Mask vs Baez. Then all that stirs into the same conclusion.
Gordito: What is it?
Baez: Red Mask is better. I think they're wrong.
Gordito: Just don't hurt anyone.
Baez: No promises.
Baez leaves as the memory fades. Baez would eventually face Red Mask. Causing unneeded damage, but at least no one was hurt. Gordito knew Baez wasn't pleased with the lack of confidence the company had in him and knew the only way for it to soothe was for Baez to make an impact of some kind. After all it's how the business works. Money would not be made otherwise.
January 2010 said:The same arena. The same ring. Several men are seen wresting in that ring with Vance Bateman and Chuck Myles looking on intrigued by the competitors with Granpa talking to them. One stands out from the pack though. Clearly Matt Tastic, but he doesn't go by that name yet. Myles and Bateman wave him over as the future champion steps out.
Myles: Soooo..... Mr. Morales. Serg here has put in a good word for you. And I think you're good enough.
Bateman:But we'll have to do something about your name. And your face. What happened to your face anyway? That's a pretty nasty scar.
Tastic: Ummm..... Cockfighting.
Bateman: I...... Don't know how to react to that. Here. I have this halloween mask lying around. Try it.
The future Matt puts it on, but then takes it off again. He rips up the scalp area and puts it back on letting his hair loose.
Tastic: Perfect.
Myles: Great. Now you just need a ring name.
Tastic: I got it. My other surname. Baez.
Bateman: That'll do, boy. That'll do.
