Tuesday, 7th August
9:59am
Wade Barrett woke up with aches all over. His head was pounding like the beat of a heavy rock band's drum. He opened his eyes too look around, and take in his surroundings. He was in a hospital ward. The walls were white as snow and the bed linen was white and blue. He wore a gown for dignity.
His memory was gone from the past couple of hours, he couldn't remember a thing, next thing he knows a 30 something year old man walks into the room. He is wearing scrubs and Wade assumes he is the doctor before a word exits his lips. He waits for the doctor to speak.
Dr. Müller: Mister Bennett?
Dr. Müller spoke with a german accent
Wade Barrett: What happened, doc?
Dr. Müller: I am afraid you suffered a very serious injury, we had to operate on you last night.
Wade Barrett: What about my match, did I win?
Dr. Müller: I am not too sure, sir. I do not follow the sport, if you would like I could ask.
Wade Barrett: No, that's fine. Can you get my phone? I need to make a phonecall...
Dr. Müller: Certainly, sir.
Dr. Müller left the room, and returned shortly with the cell phone for Wade to make a call...
Dr. Müller: There you go, sir. Don't be long your test results should be in shortly.
Wade waited for Dr. Müller to leave the room before punching in numbers on his Blackberry. He puts the phone to his ear.
"Herman and Boyle?"
Wade Barrett: Hi, this is Stu Bennett, can you put me through to George Herman immediately, please.
"I'm sorry sir, only authorised personnel can be patched through to Mr. Herman on his cell. If you'd like I could make you an appointment?"
Wade Barrett: I am authorised. Wade Barrett. Code is 555-0123.
"I apologise, Mr. Barrett. Patching you through now."
George Herman mid forties, is sat in his Merc, eating a New York Deli sandwich. The phone rings on his dash in the car, He says out loud "Answer, cell." The call is patched through.
George Herman: Good Morning, Herman here, how can I help?
Wade Barrett: Herman, it's Stu. What the hell happened last night?
George Herman: Stu, stu, I was going to call the hospital... How you doin' man?
Wade Barrett: You never answered my question, George.
George started to sweat, he was nervous.
George Herman: Stu, you were ambushed. There was nothing the EBWF could do, it's Curt and his bloody crew. They were intent on destroying you.
Wade Barrett: Is that right? Well, I'm flying out to New York as soon as possible. Get me a flight.
George Herman: When for?
Wade Barrett: An Hour ago.
Headquarters
Two and a half hours later
Herman and Boyle's headquarters were a large modern office block. The interior decoration was very minimalistic, and the furniture were mainly glass or leather. Wade walked into the building in a hurry and ran up the stairs with his walking stick while the receptionists were shouting at him.
He reached the door saying
George Herman
CEO
He knocked on the door and was told to open by George.
George Herman: Stu, glad to see you. Sit down.
Wade went and sat down on the chair, the big large leather chair with varnished wooden arms.
George Herman: You won the match by disqualification. You'll be facing Ted DiBiase for the PTG Championship on Monday.
Wade Barrett: George, I am really pissed at the moment, why the hell would they do that? Do they think I am weak or something? Where's Jack? Shouldn't he be in on this meeting?
George Herman: Jack had to go back to Michigan, family crisis.
Wade Barrett: Look, when I return, I'm not going to be soft, if they want war, well, I will give them war.
George Herman: Be careful, Stu. We don't want you doing something you'll regret.
Wade Barrett: You know what George, how am I going to prove myself if I let people walk over me? I'm going to talk to the PR people downstairs, see what they have in mind, it'll be done by tonight, I have an idea.
George Herman: Okay, okay... Do what you want. But E-mail me what you're doing, okay, I need to be in the loop at all times.
To: George Herman
CC: Jack Boyle
From: Stuart Bennett
