“I don't have an off button.”

The UKWF North Sea Champion stands on a waterfront somewhere in New York City, the skyline glittering in the night behind him. On this, an unseasonably warm February night, he's dressed in jeans and a UKWF hoody. His title belt hangs over one shoulder and he holds it close to him, looking uncertainly at it as he begins to speak to the fans at home.

“Don't get it twisted. While I may have been out of the UKWF rings lately, I haven't stopped. I gave my knee a week to heal up from the ladder match and then I started doing the only thing that really makes me happy. Wrestling. And no, I haven't defended this belt since I won it. But I've brought it with me to shows all over the UK. And then, first chance I had to bring it back to North America to wrestle for a few of the companies here you better believe I did it.

Right away, when I won this belt the conversation from a lot of the fans was about defending it long enough to get myself a shot at the UKWF Championship. But I've never seen it that way. Like I said from the beginning, it's a chance to be a standard bearer. A chance to make this thing something special.”

He scowls and pulls the belt off his shoulder, letting it hang loosely at the edge of his grip as he holds it up to the camera.

“I wanted this to be different. But right now, it very much feels the same. The first defence of this belt should be something special. Two of the best wrestlers going out there against each other. Trust me, there is no one I would rather defend this thing against than Valkyrie. Especially after what happened. I can say it again and again, and no one is going to believe that I didn't know what would happen at New Years Evolution. Luckily, I get a chance to prove it this week.

Valkyrie, You've got to wait until next show for the shot you deserve. Because this week it's my chance to defend something. My honor. My integrity. Because I'm stepping in there beside you and Alyssa Drew against some of the most dangerous men in the company. Against at least one opponent I hate, who I swore I'd never wrestle again. See, in all this drama between you and I we've lost a sense of what New Management is doing to this place. We should be going in there a unified front against The Enforcers. Because if we aren't...

There's no escape. No escape from this team eating itself alive. Are The Enforcers dangerous? Absolutely. But the most dangerous thing in that match is what we could do to each other.”

Kincaid puts the belt back over his shoulder and sighs, before walking off camera. We're left on the New York lights and a fade..to...black...

[Alyssa Drew]

Alyssa Drew is in her London house with two birds sitting on her shoulder as she watches the match she had against Ace Watson and then having his match with Valkyrie next on her list. She stares at the screen writing down notes vigorously as she watches each little detail of the match closely wanting to make sure she learns from the mistakes she made in her loss to him. After going through both matches, she closes her laptop and takes the birds back over to their cages and shut the doors before going back to the couch and sitting down and looking at her notes.

Alyssa: The last time I stepped into a UKWF ring, I lost to Ace Watson. I’m not afraid to admit defeat, but it wasn’t the way I had wanted the ending of that match to happen. If you don’t remember, Bianca Davis showed her ugly face and cost me the match. Then, two weeks ago, my new friend, Valkyrie was facing him and I came down to the ring and kinda distracted him right back before getting a beat down by the other two enforcers of New Management. It was totally worth it too!

Alyssa chuckles as she sits back in the couch and props her feet up on the coffee table.

Alyssa: Now, I find myself teaming with my new friend and the North Sea Champion himself! How could my team not be really awesome? Now, I know we’re facing three of New Management’s top guys, and I know Kincaid has something Valkyrie wants, but I’m certain they’ll put their differences aside for one night and we’ll be an awesome team and take down some New Management goons in the process! I know we can work together for at least one night and show everyone that New Management isn’t all that it’s cracked up to be and I’ll prove that I can truly hang with the best of the best in this company. Who knows, maybe I’ll even make Ace Watson tap out this time too!

Alyssa gets up off the couch and heads to the nearest window and stares out it.

Alyssa: At UKWF No Escape, I have a humongous chance to prove myself to everyone. I’m sharing the ring with five of the best on the entire UKWF roster and then there’s me, the rookie who has everything to prove still to people. I have a legacy to uphold and a legacy of my own to start building and getting a win here is going to be another step in creating my own legacy and proving that I am one day going to be the very best in UKWF. As sure as the sun sets each day, I’m going to go out there and give it everything I have to try and help my team win and get that rematch with Ace Watson and prove his win was a fluke.

Alyssa blows a kiss to the camera before walking off.

[Cross Recoba]

The atmosphere in Margot, Great Queen Street, is buzzing for a Friday lunchtime. Cross is sat at a table opposite the camera. He sports a Harris Tweed jacket, clearly fitting into the English sartorial style.

“Okay, here’s the deal - you’ve got until my food arrives to get what you need, then you can kindly fuck off to the bar and put it on the tab until I leave. If this doesn’t make it to production on time I’ll make sure you couldn’t get unpaid work on Hollyoaks!”

“It seems that the only logical booking the UKWF team could make this week sees myself, Ace, and Hunter being pitted against Kincaid, Drew, and Fifi the Wonderdog! Now, it seems the more things change, the more they stay the same.”

“By that I mean - look at Kincaid. For those of you who watched the waste of bandwidth that was that video published on the UKWF site, you’ll realise that here is a man who is terrified, absolutely terrified, that he’s obsolete. For those of you who missed it, here goes - I’m the champ, I’ll defend my title, Valkyrie can have a shot at my title, I’ve taken the title everywhere..oh, and the New Management Enforcers are bad people…” Did I miss anything? Seems the same old Kincaid - worried he’ll become an irrelevance, but relax. You’re facing the hottest trio on the continent! We’ll give you your night of being current, your wife might even lose that dead behind the eyes stare she wears, though - do you ever think it might just be you?

Then we come to Alyssa Drew, the peppy happy-go-lucky girl who couldn’t find her own way in life and chose to ape her sister. Found the beatdown fun? Lucky for you there’s plenty in store for more ‘fun’ as you put it. The numbers might be more evenly stacked on your side at No Escape but I’m a realist - you’re pretty much cast off at sea alone in this one. Here’s how awesome your team is - do you think Valkyrie is going to jump in and save Kincaid unless she absolutely has to? How does that benefit her? Why would she weaken her shot when it comes up?”

“Lastly, we have Snowy, the only Danish export that is full of more crap than Bacon! How're you feeling? Is that tail of yours wagging at the prospect of getting your hands on me once more? What’s that? Kincaid is stuck in a well? Oh, you meant hole? Kincaid is in a whole lot of trouble and you’re just going to sit there doing nothing because why the fuck do you care? What a surprise! “

A waiter approaches the table.

“The venison with glazed chestnuts, sir”

He places down Cross’ lunch.

“I’ll leave you all with this - The New Management Enforcers know what we have to do - from the looks of it, our opponents are doing most of the work for us before the bell has even rung!”

[Valkyrie and Hana]

Florida. Out by Valkyrie's own private pool, the Great Dane Bitch was laying back on a sun lounger, resting on each shoulder were her pet ravens, Lukas and Mjoll, at her feet was Hroki, the wolflike dog and coiled up on her chest was the albino python known as Astrid.

“I've a few things to clear up before I start making increasingly colourful threats. Top of the list would be that although I am teaming up with my next opponent for the First Annual First Anniversary Show, I am not going to stab him in the back or steal a victory from him by grabbing all the glory. Save it for that show and instead, stick it to Stella and her pack of Bitches.”

“Captain Bollocks, Mummy's Little Soldier and that other idiot who I haven't come up with a derogatory term for as of yet. Or in order, Cross Recoba, Ace Watson and Hunter Storms. Don't believe anything that Captain Bollocks tells you. Alyssa and me, we're new friends and yeah, I'm going to be fighting Kincaid in a few weeks time, but I live for victory. I will work with anyone I need to to make sure that we get that big win, and if I've learnt anything in eight years it's how to read people just by observing them. I can learn how to apply my own moves to someone elses, to work in cohesion with someone I've never teamed with, I can make the fucking cards transparent in a manner of speaking. The only people I'll be a liability to is you three Muppet Rejects.”

Valkyrie paused for a moment, reaching up to ruffle the neck feathers of the Ravens as Astrid slithered out of sight, under Valkyrie's t shirt where it would be warmer.

“And never let it be said that Vikings don't appreciate cunning over ferocity, the bravest of the brave died after being captured, refusing to accept life as a Thrall by asking to be killed in various ways. Whereas the cleverest of the captives saved not only his life, but the lives of his brothers, and their freedom to live as they did before. He called himself out to be executed, telling the executioner to hold his hair out of the way in case it blunted the axe. And as the weapon fell, he jerked the head back, pulled the second mans hands into the path of the axe and caused the Chief who had captured his band to release him. His only condition was they all went free. Don't take everything you read on me as gospel, I can be ferocious, crazy brave and downright destructive, all things you need to watch out for, as you should know well. Knee strikes, the Piledriver, they can hit you all at anytime.”

“And you just have to accept that.”

As the Dane's trademark slasher smile appeared, the picture faded out, the mic picking up the Ravens cries of “SKULLS!”...

[Ace Watson]

“We, as Enforcers, are a unit.” Ace sits in a slightly darkened room, his hands together and fingers intertwined. “This may be the first match featuring myself, Cross and Hunter together but it's evident already that we work well together as a group. Our opponents on the other hand, well… Not only have they never teamed up before, but there's tension between the members before the match even begins. Which if you're watching this I'm sure you already know well about.”

“Now they can claim that tension won't cause any problems as much as they like, and they have done so a lot already, But pretending it isn't there won't get rid of it. That tension coupled with Alyssa Drew’s desperation to prove herself against me and to the fans can only spell victory for the Enforcers.”

“Now, I have a win over Drew, but Valkyrie and Kincaid have both beaten me before. Valkyrie’s victory over me coming at her new “bestie” ‘s aid. This time things will be different. I feel as if I'm losing focus? Tag an Enforcer in. I feel my gameplan in the ring isn't going as well as I'd like? Tag in an Enforcer. Feel like getting a little breather so I can be fully ready later on to hit an Anglian Driver on any of our three opponents and end the match. It's just simple, and it works. And not to mention the many plans Stella, myself, Recoba, Arcane and Hunter have come up with that I won't be revealing on this kind of platform. Or any, for that matter.”

“See we have our plans, our strategies, our wit, our cunning. And they're what put us at the top of the company. They're why Stella recruited us. Maybe some of our recent results haven't reflected our true abilities, but a couple losses don’t mean we can't beat anyone on this company's roster. Because we can, and we will. The Enforcers are going to be around for a very long time, and no nickname or empty threat about busting up someone's face can change that.”

“Alyssa got what she deserved last time round when she ruined my match. Her beatdown was a message to her and the rest of the locker room. And that message was; Don't mess with the Enforcers.”

[Hunter Storms]

Standing tall in front of the bedside mirror, was Storms donning himself in one of his many suits he always seemed to keep on hand. Readjusting the tie a few more times with a look of satisfaction he turned to the camera, his face suddenly back to its cold looking demeanor.



“Allow me to address the elephants in the room, or should I say idiots? I understand that a point wants to be proven against us Enforcers, but this is really the best there is out there for us to fight? Kincaid, Alyssa Drew, and Valkyrie....if only they knew they were signing their own death warrants right now.”



He casually rolls his eyes.



“Kincaid, Kincaid, Kincaid....I've heard great things about you. The rivalry you had my buddy Cross, the sheer amount of willpower you have packed, and you pretty much bring about everything to the table that a wrestler can. Yet, it's your wife that mainly drives you to compete? I can't tell if that's real sweet or just pathetic and that I should take it as a sign that you're whipped. Are you wrestling for your own needs, or for her Kincaid? There's only so much you can provide here and you need to stop caring about that little.......you know what I mean. Alyssa won't be able to keep you going after Tuesday Kincaid.”



“Speaking of Alyssa, let's move onto Ms. Drew. Still hurting from that little beat down we gave you? No? Then I guess we'll have to make this next one even sweeter. Fill it with more pain, more broken bones, and maybe toss in a few dislocations. In other words Alyssa, you're nothing but a mere insect in our eyes. What have you really accomplished against us? Nothing.....and it will stay that way while we're still here.”



“Lastly, we have this Valkyrie lady. A Danish Bitch indeed, is she Great though? I don't think so. I see her as nothing more than a nuisance and a thorn in NME's side that needs to be pulled out and thrown into the trash where she properly belongs. I'm tired of having to deal with last week's trash, and it's about damn time that these people get put into their spots. This isn't your house anymore you three, this is NME's house now and The Enforcers are running this gig whether you like it or not!”



He exhales a rather obvious frustrated sigh before departing for the door.



“Now, if you'll excuse me, business calls.”



He widely opens the door before slamming it shut behind him.
