Leon, its nice to see you again. How are you?
Im good thanks Brad, you all set for our interview?
Yeah man. Lay the questions on me.
Alright well Ill just let the guys finish setting up first and then well go from there.
Ok. Cool. Thatll give me time to make a quick call.
Getting up from his chair, is Brad Bomb, dressed in a shirt under a blue hoody, some jeans and a worn out pair of Converse trainers, he moves away from the set of the conversation, his phone readily in his hand. As he makes a call we see Leon Kensworth go over his questions one more time, while doing a mic check as the cameramen mess around with the lighting.
Brad Bomb soon returns to his chair, a measure of restrain on his face all the while, as Leon waits to start the interview. A shout of Ok go! rings out and the lights dim to focus on the two.
Welcome everybody to another exclusive WZCW.com interview. Im Leon Kensworth and today Im going to be talking to the first man to be eliminated twice from the Lethal Lottery, Brad Bomb. Welcome Brad.
Its a pleasure to be here.
How is the neck feeling? You took a pretty nasty fall.
Im a little banged up from the Lethal Lottery but Im doing alright. Ill be fine.
I think we should start off with the Lethal Lottery. Your performance has attracted great ire amongst the fans and some of the superstars backstage after you decided to re-enter the match after be eliminated Barbosa. You were subsequently eliminated by Showtime David Cougar. How do you defend your actions?
You know Leon, I dont care if my decision has attracted ire with the wrestlers backstage or the fans. You want to know why?
Evidently so.
If a tree falls in the woods and nobody is around, does it still make a sound?
I dont see what that has to do with anything.
Thats because youre being naïve. Go back and watch the tape and youll see that nobody, and I mean nobody, cared that I was eliminated from the Lethal Lottery the first time. The referees didnt notice. The fans didnt react. The commentators didnt acknowledge it and the wrestlers in the ring didnt care either. Nobody paid attention to my exit. So Ill ask again if a tree falls in the woods and nobody is around, does it still make a sound? Thats my answer.
How can you, a man who fights for honour and integrity, justify it though?
Its easily justifiable Leon. I made a promise to the fans of WZCW. I would get rid of Ty Burna and his Apostles and the Sons of Destiny. Instead, theyve grown more powerful. Despite a rupture inside their affiliate member Barbosa, theyve grown stronger. It was my aim to make sure any of them didnt win the Lethal Lottery and so, when I was eliminated I knew I had a second chance. A second chance of fulfilling a promise I made. Ultimately, I failed. Again
Theres a look of pain on the face of Brad. His fingers seem to tense up, the corners of mouth twitch and his breaths getting heavier and heavier still. Emerging from his self-pity he focuses back on Leon and the interview.
And now Ty Burna goes to the main event of Kingdom Come again. This time hes the challenger but still his presence in the main event only highlights my failure further.
On the topic of Kingdom Come, this week you two-time former WZCW World Heavyweight Champion, and one of your idols, Titus on Ascension, with a spot in the King For A Day match on the line. How are you preparing for that?
The same as I would for any opponent. I watch tape. Study form. Train and exercise each day. Keep my mind at
peace. Titus is now just another opponent and not the man I once loved.
Titus has suffered a slight dip in for-
A slight dip? More like a nose dive into main event obscurity. Brad rudely interrupts, taking Leon aback slightly. Brad ushers him to carry on with his hand as Leon looks to gain his composure.
Umm yes
but do you not worry that he could bounce back to the form that won him a second World championship only?
Leon, I would love to be the man to give Titus that push back towards recognition, make him the man he once was but that will not happen this week. You see its my time to be recognised. My time to be the face of this company. My time to right the wrongs of those who run Meltdown and run around causing chaos. Its my time to embrace my destiny and go to Kingdom Come as a participant in the King For A Day match, Brad is out of his seat shouting and pointing at Leon, the stress bubbling inside of him overflowing, Its my time, Leon. My time. My! Time!
Titus is a shadow of his former self and I will further cast that shadow this week on Ascension because it is my time to become something. Let the torch be passed. Let those whove waited have their time and let them have it now!
Brad Bomb storms out of the interview space and out of sight of the camera. Theres a brief silence in the room before some conversation breaks out and even some slight s******s from those hiding in the dark of the lighting. Leon is taken aback by the outburst but manages to regain enough composure to finish off the segment.
Thank you for watching a Leon Kensworth exclusive interview with Brad Bomb.
