Chapter 13: The Build Up
August 28, Longham Wrestling Arena, Longham City.
Few minutes before the show...
"Hey man, did you come to last week’s show?" Jason asked a fan who was located nearby.
"Nah, man. I missed it. I heard old Gibson dropped a bomb. Oh my, what a bomb it was..." the other fan replied in an excited tone.
"Ya, that was right out of the left field. I had no clue that something like that was going to happen," Jason said enthusiastically.
"Can you imagine, in three days we will be seeing history made!!!" the fan stated with equal amounts of enthusiasm.
"Isn’t that cool though? It is almost like when they introduced women’s wrestling. How long has it been? I have been feeling that things have gone a little stale over the past few years. Just when I thought about giving up, old Gibson smacked me in the face with this," Jason said wistfully.
"Then you have to thank someone else," another fan who was standing nearby butted into the conversation.
"Oh! What do you mean?" Jason asked eagerly.
"Do you think an old horse like Gibson could whip something like this? I am not badmouthing Gibson or anything. It’s just that if he had something like this, he would have presented it sooner," the fan said a bit authoritatively.
"Yeah, I was wondering about that. This would have been a great match in the last PPV card. That card was so lackluster," Jason said shaking his head.
"Well, according to my sources, they have handed over the women’s division to some young guy named Williams. It is said that he impressed the higher-ups with a lot of his ideas. He had been on trial run for the past six months," the fan said in a confident voice causing Jason and the other fan to listen in.
