Setting the gold standard in RWF

Shelton Benjamin
Whats up USA! Thats right, Shelton Benjamin is here and has landed in RWF! First of all let me start by saying a huge thank you to all my fans that have come out here tonight. I mean, of course not knowing that I was going to turn up here and to receive such a reception that I did is just overwhelming. But lets move on with things quickly because tonights card is packed and I don't want to waste to much time. So i'd like to start by just saying how I've always been haunted by the fact that I always seem to hit a plato in my career wherever I go and everywhere I've been. I mean in the WWE I dominated the tag division and the middle card division but never got that world champion push I feel I truly deserved, in Japan a dominated the tag division, and also in ROH I dominated the tag division but still refused that opportunity to show what I can do as a singles competitor. So I feel that my move here to RWF was the perfect one. And the reasons why is because I feel that my fresh start in this company will allow me to show everybody just what a great singles competitor I'am, and not just be left to work with a team mate. I mean don't get me wrong I have no problem with it, but all my life I've had to depend on somebody else. So now I want to make that change in my wrestling career to concentrate on my singles competition and be able to wear that gold around the waist of the gold standard.

So tonight my opponent is Zack Ryder, having won 2 of his matches and only lost 1 he has quite the momentum coming into this match. But with all due respect Zack I find it hard to take you seriously. I mean theres no taking away your ability to wrestle and what you have in the ring is a serious talent. But I mean c'mon man, you can't expect to make stupid video's of yourself and post them on youtube and expect people to respect you. You earn respect by stepping in the ring with the best and beating them. You build respect by sticking around a long time and learning from your mistakes. You don't go around demanding it like you seem to be. So tonight when you step in the ring with me, I'll teach you a thing or to about respect. When I force you to respect me when you lay out on your back after a deadly T-bone suplex and get you out for the 3 count. And I don't quite understand what this joke with your internet championship is about? I mean please enlighten me because who in the right frame of mind would ever want to call themselves the internet champion. Especially when it has that god awful face shaping on the front, seriously dude.



Shelton Benjamin
So lets just cut to the chase shall we. Tonight when I beat your ass maybe finally I'll put a sock in your mouth and prevent anybody else from hearing your god awful whining all the time. Not only will you learn a thing or two about wrestling and just how good I'am. You'l see the standard you have to be at to be the best in this business. Thats right, because tonight Zack when I beat you. I'm setting the gold standard for this business baby.


[TBC by Zack Ryder only. If not then END PROMO]

Zack Ryder is caught backstage, getting ready to meet Benjamin face to face in the ring



Jerry 'The King' Lawler: So, Zack Ryder is here! I thought he was back in Long Island!

Ryder looks toward the camera and says "Wait, Wait, Wait" As he checks himself in the mirror and does idiotic faces



Ryder heads toward the entrance way as his theme music plays in the background upon his arrival



Jerry 'The King' Lawler: Finally this kid shows up, it seemed like an eternity.



After doing his signature pose, he goes toward the turnbuckle and does it once again, this time looking back at Benjamin



Ryder gets a microphone and... Just before he begins to speak, Michael Cole uses a gong and scares the crowd



Michael Cole: May I have your attention, please?

The crowd begins to boo and scream at Cole while he speaks

Michael Cole: Zack Ryder is going to speak to not only you, but the man who is also in that ring, Shelton Benjamin.

Cole quickly drops the microphone and lets Ryder proceed



Zack Ryder: Thank you, Michael. Okay, Shelton Benjamin. Now I know I said I was not going to be out here, but guess what? I LIED! (See what I did there) I was in the locker room the entire time. I wasn't going to bother and go rescue my dad, he's an asshole. Let me go on. So, Shelton Benjamin, did you just call me out? You said I have no skills in the wrestling ring? Is that so? I may make stupid videos, but I would kill your ass in this very ring. I will destroy you, and Yoshi Botchsu. Nobody can stop me. My Internet title is the most amazing title you will ever see. You're just jealous because you will never gain a championship and that is because you are a horrible wrestler with a cheap ass motto. 'The Gold Standard' I think you were referring to my testicles when you made that up. As you can tell, i'm pissed off. So go on, get the hell outta here and make me some fried chicken.

Shelton looks pissed, and Ryder goes on his knees as Benjamin delivers the PayDirt on him



Michael Cole: Oh my god! Ahh!

Michael Cole rushes toward the locker room, scared and with piss on his pants... Shit is also traveling out of his asshole in the process
