The Way It Is (Slam)

[Donzig]

There came a knock on the door of Slam's dressing room, and then the door was opened. Into the room walked a small ring of security flanking a man in a dark business suit, who was followed by another carrying a briefcase. Long time viewers would recognize the man was the one time CEO of the XWL, and a partner of the law firm of Sollozo and Jeffers.

It was in fact, Dante Sollozo, the personal lawyer of Donzig. He looked around the room, then stared at Slam II with his flat dead eyes. Then he spoke. "Mister Slam, I am Dante Sollozo of Sollozo and Jeffers. And I represent Mr. Donzig and the AWA in this matter."

Slam said nothing, and the lawyer motioned to his assisstant. The man brought up the briefcase, snapping it open. He reached inside, holding up a piece of paper before the former Champion. "This is a restraining order, under the terms of this order you will be arrested if you lay hands on any Superstar, personality, employee, or member of the AWA staff outside of the ring without physical provocation. Do you understand, Mister Slam?"

Slam grabbed the paper, and the security guards looked ready to pounce. Sollozo did not react, he merely shrugged. "You may keep that, I have another copy. Which brings me to the next order of business."

The lawyer reached into the case. "This is your AWA contract, you will notice that it strongly prohibits any and all use of illegal substances. In fact, if you use any illegal substance including but not limited to marijuana, cocaine, or illegally prescribed medication you will be terminated? Do you understand that?"

Slam frowned, and the lawyer continued.

"If you fail a drug test, if you are found in posession of any controlled substances you will be fired. Your contract will be terminated, Mr. Slam." Sollozo stared at him. "In addition, if you are found with any of the substances on that list on AWA property? You will be subject to prosecution, arrest, and termination?"

Slam stared, and the lawyer cleared his throat.

"Do you understand what I am saying to you right now? Mr. Donzig wants you to know your days of flaunting the rules of AWA are fucking over, Mr. Slam." Sollozo said with no emotion. "You are an AWA Superstar, and you will act like one. You will conduct yourself as a professional."

The lawyer sniffed. "If you do not, if you willingly violate these terms you will be sued for breach of contract. The penalities for breaking this contract are quite subsantial, and I know you have a family."

Slam was looking at the contract, and the lawyer shrugged. "The police will conduct a search of your property and this room in two hours, and I trust they will find nothing. Will they, Mr. Slam?"

The lawyer then nodded, and his assistant closed the case. And the small band left Slam's locker room without another comment.

[SLAM II]

Slam 2 smiled at the men as they left, he took his papers and chased after them but not in a way to provoke an attack.[/color]

-Slam II- "Yeah listen Dick, or whatever your name is. I don't know if you know who I am but I am David Keith Slam the second"

He looked the papers he was handed a few seconds ago then shrugged looking back at the lawyers.[/color]

-Slam II- "Whicch means I have no rules because I'm a fucking outlaw son, everyone who has tried to make me mind or bend to their will has always failed!"

Slam 2 takes the papers and crumples them up nice and tight into the most perfect paper ball. He then proceeds to put the balls down the front of his pants holding up one finger at the increasingly getting madder lawyer of Donzigs.[/color]

-Slam II- "Hold on a minute got to get the gooch gravey"

Dante Sollozo looks very unhappy with Slam 2s actions but Slam 2 just grinned more and more. After a few seconds longer Slam took the crumpled paper from his pants and tossed it at Dante Sollozo but it just bounced off his suit and fell to the ground.[/color]

-Slam II- "With that message there could you please tell Mutt that I said go fuck himself go ahead and call the police because Slam the second follows no man or Gods rules and if he has any comments please follow up by kissing my ass...right where it gets the brownest too...and I'll see him at Resolution bitch"

With that Slam 2 turned around laughing to himself.[/color]

-Slam II- "Give me some fucking rules?!"

Slam 2 stopped and slapped his knees.[/color]

-Slam II- "He must have forgot I don't ever give two shits about no rules because I am outside of rules! Hey...Hey..."

slam 2 turned around waving down Sollozo.[/color]

-Slam II- "Tell him to fire me if he wants but it won't get rid of me, no way in hell will it get rid of me. Maybe you should be writing this all down or nah fuck that where is that camera? Get over here"

Slam 2 grabs the camera and puts it in his face.[/color]

-Slam II- "Quit playing Mutt! You hear me? I ain't following your stupid ass rules or you dumbass lawyers rules, I don't need to rules anymore Mutt because I got one GOAL and thats just to kick your fucking head around the square one fucking time and thats it...NO RULES HOMO! Just you and I and my fist giving you a black eye or dentures it don't matter, I'm just going to kick your fucking ass hardcore Mutt"

Slam 2 laughs into the camera and pushes it back.[/color]

-Slam II- "See you at Resolution Mutt"

Slam 2 looked back at Sollozo and the secruity guards giving them the finger, he then smiled and turned walking off.[/color]

[Donzig]

Sollozo snorts as Slam walks past him, since he had in fact left the room before the pointless tirade.

In fact, Sollozo was not mad at all, angry was just not in the nature of Donzig's lawyers. Dante Sollozo was like a robot, and he looked down at the paper laying on the floor.

"I don't think Mr. Slam realizes that Donzig wants him to break the rules, because he is in fact as dumb as a box of rocks."


The assistant nodded sadly, and then they walked back down the hallway.
