BLAH

THE NIGHT THE PROMO DIED

Something is happening right now and few of you actually realize the consequences. Something that may have started funny but about to go horribly wrong.

No, it's not the kiss my ass club.

No, it's not The Hardys' accent.

No, it's not the gigantic proportions of Mick Foley's ass.

And no, it's not even Dave Meltzer's face.

The thing I'm talking about is "What?".

What?

I said.....oh, screw it.

Picture this: we are on the road to WrestleMania X8. Let's say that the main event is Stone Cold Steve Austin vs Triple H (yeah, TRY to picture that for a second). Austin is the face and HHH, stubborn as he is, is still a heel. Austin jumps in the ring for his usual promo...

Austin: You know, uh....there's a big match coming. I have a match with that mealy mouth bastard HHH. What?

Crowd: What?

Austin: But first thing first......look at my new t-shirt.

*Crowd rushes to the stands, buy 5 t-shirts each, just in case. Austin waits patiently in the ring*

Austin: Now that you bought the shirt, let me talk about the match against HHH. What?

Crowd: What?

Austin: HHH, you beat me before. You want my belt. I'm pissed off. What?

Crowd: What?

Austin: You stole my wife, you kidnapped my son, you ran over me twice...

Crowd: What?

Austin: ...you stole my title, you pissed on me, you bloodied me....

Crowd: What?

* Suddenly, we hear "IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTTTTTTTTT'SSSSSSSSSSSSSS TIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIMEEEEEEEEE TO PLAAAAAAAAAY THE GAME!!!!!!!!!". HHH comes out*

HHH: Hey Austin, before I go any further, Jericho sucks. Just want to clear that up.

Austin: YOU LITTLE BASTARD. I HATE YOU.....even though you have a point about Jericho.

HHH: Look, I was tired to see you cry, piss and moan...

Crowd: What?

HHH: ...about all the things I did to you...

Austin: LISTEN TO ME! You broke my legs, my arms...

Crowd: What?

Austin: Hey, stop doing that, I pour my heart out at this moment...

Crowd: What?

Austin: Don't you care about my feelings?

Crowd: What?

Austin: Fuck it. I'm leaving.

Crowd: What?

*Austin leaves. HHH is confused and now all alone to sell the damn match.*

HHH: Well, Austin, listen to me...

Crowd: What?

HHH: ....I am gonna tear you apart, I am gonna destroy you...

Crowd: What?

HHH: ...And at WrestleMania X8...

Crowd: What?

HHH: Screw you! You don't let me do my damn heel promo. You don't take it seriously...

Crowd: What?

HHH: As a matter of fact, you don't listen to anything we say....

Crowd: What?

HHH: Well forget about the damn WrestleMania main event. I'm leaving too!

Crowd: What?

*HHH leaves. The arena is empty. All the people suddenly realize what they have done. They watched without thinking. They didn't pop for anything. They just kept on screaming "What?". They realize their mistake and now can forget about their WrestleMania main event. After thinking about what they done, they suddenly chant "RVD". The glory hog jumps in the ring and masturbates in front of all his fans. And it goes for hours.*
