(Later in the night, on telavised TV. Tyler Lawson and DC Hennig are talking by a water cooler backstage. Both men are wearing wrestling attire.)
Tyler: Yeah, back at ya, good luck.
DC: Do you think Team XWA has a fighting chance?
Tyler: Oh, for sure. It's going to be a hell of a battler out there. I'm glad Safari Man got kicked out of the match, it would have been weird wrestling my student.
DC: Safari, what?
Tyler: Safari Man!
DC: He wrestles for XWA?
Tyler: Yeah man, I'm his mentor, he was going to be in the match on Team XWA's side.
DC: Now, tell me his name one more time.
Tyler: Safari M...
-All of a sudden Safari Man comes into the view of the camer. He is shirtless and has on a pair of blue jeans with a chain around his neck. His belt buck is impressive. He looks at Tyler, then at DC. Then with a swipe of his arm he knocks down the water cooler. Then get's in DC's face. -
Safari: I'm Safari Man, and I'm coming for you, *****!
- DC and Tyler have a confused "WTF" kind of look on there face. Then Safari bends over and picks up the water cooler.-
Safari: I'm just playin dawg. Don't hate.
DC: You're comical attempts don't ammuse me, neither does your african american steriotype language. It doesn't ammuse me, infact it makes me sick, and that's the reason you'll never make it anywhere in XWA, unless you show some respect for your elders and your co workers. Right now, you don't even deserve to be on national telivision with the likes Tyler Lawson and myself. You have a lot of growing up and maturing to do before you can even think about stepping infront of me. I don't know what Tyler has been teaching you, but he needs to teach you some manners. You had no right, and I mean no right to do that when Tyler and I were trying to have a conversation like the adults that we are.
Safari: Wait, wait, are you trying to tell me that I'm not a man? That I'm not an adult. If you want to find out who's a man we can solve that problem right now.
DC: I'm more of a man, because I'm proud of who i am. I am at my peak, I respect people and they respect me, I respect each and every one of my fans, and they're what keeps me going. I don't have to fight you to prove myself to anyone,. I have a wife and a family, and make a living doing the thing I love to do 300 nights a year. That's what being a man is about.
Tyler: Safari, he's right, you have a lot of maturing to do, and you need to do it fast, before you can even think of challenging for a XWA championship.
Safari doesn't know what to say, he just stands there speechless as DC and Tyler excuse them selfs from the hallway. Safari rubs hyis hands over his head and sighs. Then kicks one of the boxes laying out in the hall way, as the camera turns to Jack Johnson, walking with a mike in his hand.
Jack: Safari can I get a word with you.
Safari: Can you have a word?
Jack: Yeah, can I get an interview?
Safari: Can I get an interview please?
Jack: What?
Safari: I just got a lecture from two of the top XWA stars about not having and manors, then you come in and demand a interview with me?
Jack: I'm not demanding an interview, I'm simply asking.
Safari: I'm going to "simply ask" you to get the hell out of my face. I'm not in the mood for skinny little interns like yourself.
Jack: What's your problem? and intern? I've worked for XWA for several years.
Safari: Get on with the interview.
Jack: Well, earlier tonight before the show you were involved in a match with Sky Drifter, in which you came out as a victor. Doing so, you showed off a whole new package of moves. Where did these come from?
Safari: I just figured it was time to unleash the wrestler, not the beast, I went out there, and put on a good show, entertained the crowd and won, and I feel good about it. Being a dick all the time doesn't help anyone, and I think DC just taught me that.
Jack: Where do you plan on going from here?
Safari: Well hopefully back to the hotel with my girl, Daisy. hop i get luck--
Jack: I mean in the company! where do you plan to go in the company?
Safari: Well, I hope to get off these dark cards, and once I do, I girl Daisy will be helping me. Speaking of Daisy, have you seen her?
Jack: Well, I don't even know her....
Safari: I'm going to go find her, take care Jack.
Safari slaps Jack on the shoulder and nods his head as he takes off in a light jog to go find Daisy.

Safari takes a moment to look out to the crowd, there he see's his girl friend Daisy. She blows him a kiss and he smiles at her, it's not like a grown man is going to blow a kiss back to his wife on live, national telivision..... Atleast, not "The Jungle Warrior" Safari Man.
Safari picks Sky up, this time putting sky's head under his arm. Safari walks them over to the ropes, he lifts Sky's body up, resting Sky's legs on the second rope, with Safari holding on to Sky's head. Safari looks to the crowd to his left, then to the crowd to his right. Then drops back and hits a Rope DDT
Safari takes a second then rolls over and and onto one knee. He smirks at the crowd. Then gets up to his feet. He walks over to the ropes and plays with the crowd a little. Getting the crowd to boo him, the crowd is really heated. Safari gets up on the second rope and flips off the crowd. Getting even more heat. Safari steps in between the ropes and get's outside the ring. He walks around looking out into the crowd. Then turns around to the ring. He lifts up the skirt under the ring, and looks for a few seconds, he let's go of the skirt and smiles up at the crowd, he lifts of the skirt once more and pulls out a Kendo Stick. Keep in mind, this is not a Hardcore match, if safari uses the weapon on Sky or the official he will be disqualified.
Safari holds the stick up in the air, proud of it almost. Sky is trying to use the ropes to get up, but is stuggling to pull him self up to a vertical base.
Safari walks around the ring, when all of a sudden a man in the Audience grabs a hold of the stick. At first Safari just keeps walking, expecting the young man to just let go. But the mna must want to test his luck.Safari turns around and looks at the man, who appears to be in his late twenties or early thirties. Safari looks st the man and pulls back on the stick, the man still wont let go. Safari's eyes turn red, and you can virtually see the steam billowing from his ears. He grabs the man by the throat with his right hand, and holds on to the stick with the right. He whispers into he guys ear, only loud enough for the man to hear.
Sm: What's your man boy?
Man: Sam
SM: Sam, is that your name?
Sam: Yes, Yes that's my name
SM: Well, Sam. Do people call you Sammy?
Sam: No
SM: Alright, well I'm going to call you Sammy.
SM: Well Sammy, I have a match to get back to. I suggest you give me back this stick, or this stick, will be going so far up your as, you'll be using it as a tongue. You got that?
Sammy: Yes
SM: Yes Sir
Sammy: Yes Sir.
Safari Man yanks the stick out of the guys hand and turns around. Sky is recovered and on his feet in the ring. Safari starts to walk but the guy grabs a old of the Kendo stick again, this time Safari turns around and threatens to hit the man. Safari drops the stick, then turns around. Before he could think about it, Sky had Ran and hit a Flipping Plancha
Both men smash up against the barracade, with Safari's head landing strangly between the floor and the steel barracade.
Sky gets back to his feet and grabs the stick. He looks at Safari Man, who is laying on the ground in front of him. Then he looks at the stick its self. Sky breaks the stick over his knee. Then throws down the two pieces.
Sky steps up on the barracade and turns to face the fans. He claps his hands a few times to get the fans going, the fans clap there hands along with him. Sky nods his head along with the fans clap. The sound of the audience clapping there hands together simultaneously nearly shakes the arena. Sky looks over his shoulder one more time. Then jumps back and hits a Corkscrew moonsault off the Barricade onto Safari.
The reaction from the crowd is immense. As the sound of the crowd roars through out the building and pratically through out San Francisco. A move like the one they just wittnessed is very rare, and was executed with complete perfection in a way that can't be described by words, you had to be there.
Sky picks Safari Man up and walks him over the the announce tables. Sky smashes Safari's head into the table with such force that the people in the nose bleeds could hear the noise. Sky once more smashes Safari's head into the table, then Sky delivers several knife edge chops, all the while the official is at a count of 6.

The crowd cheers as it's obvious that they want Sky to come out on top. Safari slowly gets to his feet. The runs to the ropes and comes back with a devastating Jungle Cutter.

Just as Sky gets to his feet, the referee walks to the edge of the ring and summons XWA ring announcer Justin Roberts. They talk for a brief moment. Everyone looks at Safari Man who has his foot on the rope..... Say What? Yeah, he had his foot on the rope!
Justin Roberts: Ladies and Gentlemen the referee has reversed his decission, Safari Man's foot was indeed on the rope. The match will continue.

(Later in the night, on telavised TV. Tyler Lawson and DC Hennig are talking by a water cooler backstage. Both men are wearing wrestling attire.)
Tyler: Yeah, back at ya, good luck.
DC: Do you think Team XWA has a fighting chance?
Tyler: Oh, for sure. It's going to be a hell of a battler out there. I'm glad Safari Man got kicked out of the match, it would have been weird wrestling my student.
DC: Safari, what?
Tyler: Safari Man!
DC: He wrestles for XWA?
Tyler: Yeah man, I'm his mentor, he was going to be in the match on Team XWA's side.
DC: Now, tell me his name one more time.
Tyler: Safari M...
-All of a sudden Safari Man comes into the view of the camer. He is shirtless and has on a pair of blue jeans with a chain around his neck. His belt buck is impressive. He looks at Tyler, then at DC. Then with a swipe of his arm he knocks down the water cooler. Then get's in DC's face. -
Safari: I'm Safari Man, and I'm coming for you, *****!
- DC and Tyler have a confused "WTF" kind of look on there face. Then Safari bends over and picks up the water cooler.-
Safari: I'm just playin dawg. Don't hate.
DC: You're comical attempts don't ammuse me, neither does your african american steriotype language. It doesn't ammuse me, infact it makes me sick, and that's the reason you'll never make it anywhere in XWA, unless you show some respect for your elders and your co workers. Right now, you don't even deserve to be on national telivision with the likes Tyler Lawson and myself. You have a lot of growing up and maturing to do before you can even think about stepping infront of me. I don't know what Tyler has been teaching you, but he needs to teach you some manners. You had no right, and I mean no right to do that when Tyler and I were trying to have a conversation like the adults that we are.
Safari: Wait, wait, are you trying to tell me that I'm not a man? That I'm not an adult. If you want to find out who's a man we can solve that problem right now.
DC: I'm more of a man, because I'm proud of who i am. I am at my peak, I respect people and they respect me, I respect each and every one of my fans, and they're what keeps me going. I don't have to fight you to prove myself to anyone,. I have a wife and a family, and make a living doing the thing I love to do 300 nights a year. That's what being a man is about.
Tyler: Safari, he's right, you have a lot of maturing to do, and you need to do it fast, before you can even think of challenging for a XWA championship.
Safari doesn't know what to say, he just stands there speechless as DC and Tyler excuse them selfs from the hallway. Safari rubs hyis hands over his head and sighs. Then kicks one of the boxes laying out in the hall way, as the camera turns to Jack Johnson, walking with a mike in his hand.
Jack: Safari can I get a word with you.
Safari: Can you have a word?
Jack: Yeah, can I get an interview?
Safari: Can I get an interview please?
Jack: What?
Safari: I just got a lecture from two of the top XWA stars about not having and manors, then you come in and demand a interview with me?
Jack: I'm not demanding an interview, I'm simply asking.
Safari: I'm going to "simply ask" you to get the hell out of my face. I'm not in the mood for skinny little interns like yourself.
Jack: What's your problem? and intern? I've worked for XWA for several years.
Safari: Get on with the interview.
Jack: Well, earlier tonight before the show you were involved in a match with Sky Drifter, in which you came out as a victor. Doing so, you showed off a whole new package of moves. Where did these come from?
Safari: I just figured it was time to unleash the wrestler, not the beast, I went out there, and put on a good show, entertained the crowd and won, and I feel good about it. Being a dick all the time doesn't help anyone, and I think DC just taught me that.
Jack: Where do you plan on going from here?
Safari: Well hopefully back to the hotel with my girl, Daisy. hop i get luck--
Jack: I mean in the company! where do you plan to go in the company?
Safari: Well, I hope to get off these dark cards, and once I do, I girl Daisy will be helping me. Speaking of Daisy, have you seen her?
Jack: Well, I don't even know her....
Safari: I'm going to go find her, take care Jack.
Safari slaps Jack on the shoulder and nods his head as he takes off in a light jog to go find Daisy.
