"Surviving The Times"
Scene: 01
Camera: Off - Flashback
OUR story begins in the streets of Miami more so Liberty City, Miami, Florida, we come to see the projects, it’s summer and more so the 3rd month of summer August to be exact, the hottest month of the year or so they say… folks can be seen coming and going throughout the day, the laughing of children at the nearby park can be heard playing, yea see the ghetto isn’t all what most make it out to be, yea sure the folks who reside in Liberty City work hard, they also live hard if that makes any sense.
Though one particular couple can be seen being rather happy for living in such a rundown, low income neighborhood, that couple being the Webster’s. Kordell O'Shea Webster II can be seen rushing his wife Afeni out to their vehicle, now why would he be doing that you wonder? Mrs. Webster was about to give birth and scheduled to deliver quite soon at the Jackson Memorial hospital in Miami, Florida.
[[One Day later..]]
3:30 a.m. on a Saturday on August 13 so the rumor has it as we come to see the Webster’s who can be seen being all smiles as they welcome into this world a baby boy, that baby boy would come to be named Kordell O'Shea Webster Jr. who when born weighed in at 6 pounds.
Though with happiness there’s also sadness at that very exact moment disaster would hit, though it wouldn’t hit the Webster’s but another family 300, 000 miles away in a different state, in a different town.
What exactly would be the disaster you wonder? Well it could have been anything from drug overdose, to a car crash, to even murder, though one thing is for certain there was a disaster some place happening exactly at that given moment.
[[Three Days After…]]
August 16, the sound of sirens could be heard as paramedics rushed to the aid of Kordell Webster Sr., Knight’s father who'd gotten caught up in drug deal gone wrong, what you thought this was some sort of happily ever after story where everyone is happy and lives a glorious life with no complaints or no regrets, fuck nah this the story of a street dealer by the name of Kordell O'Shea Webster Jr. and this is his story...
You see at the age 14 Kordell Jr. had learned the ways of drug dealing, starting out just flipping, and running errands for those already slinging, though it wouldn't be long before Kordell Jr. himself would be slinging and having his own crew, more so those wanting to learn the game of the streets.
Though at the age of 16 Kordell Jr. would come find himself behind bars for the 1st time serving a year at best after getting caught by an undercover police officer, sad thing is Kordell Jr. saw it as a vacation for himself it wouldn't be until Kordell Jr. turned 20 years old that he would come to find himself behind bars a 2nd time...
At 22 Kordell Jr. would come to befriend wrestling legend Gabriel ‘The Beast’ Cragen who'd come to mentor and train Kordell Jr. in the sport of professional wrestling, it was truly certain, when god created Kordell, he created not only greatness, but something he hadn’t expected and that something would come when Kordell would grow into the very man we’ve come to see before us today, that very man being the very man who'd come to be known publicly by that of his stage name DESMOND KNIGHT...

Present Day..
:: We come to open up to that of our hero ‘Your Drug of Choice’ that ghetto piece of shit that was once responsible for one of your family member’s drug addictions or overdoses, yes that piece of shit, your boy and Level Up Wrestling’s latest signee Desmond Knight, yes, the very man in charge of one of the hottest underground independent Hip-hop music labels, that label being none other than ‘Majestic Entertainment’ formerly known as Majestic Records before changing its name to Majestic Entertainment.
So why are we at Knight’s Majestic Entertainment record company? To be honest not even someone as close as I am to Mr. Knight knows, one thing is certain it must be of importance for Knight to have us all here today that's for sure.
As the scene slowly begins to unfold more we come to see the titan of a figure that being Desmond Knight standing with his back to that of the door to an office, though not just any office a conference room to be exact, Knight can be seen looking out one of the windows within that of the conference room, the Los Angeles, California city streets and highways filled to their maximum capacity as the sun slowly begins to set.::
DESMOND KNIGHT: “Greetin’s to those of yous who are here for my big announcemen’ and glad yous all could be here with us today on such a short notice for today’s press conference...”
:: Knight says as he slowly turns around to see the various folks from both that of the wrestling industry and those within the music industry to even those within the news industry in attendance. The conference room of which Knight can be seen being in can be seen being rather large and fills with commotion as light bulbs begin flashing all over the room.
Desmond sits down and begins to put pen to paper. As he finishes signing the contract. Knight then holds it up for all the press to see. It takes a few moments but the commotion dies down shortly afterward. Knight’s personal assistant Reginald Griffin looks over at his boss and smiles in approval before speaking back into the microphone.::
DESMOND KNIGHT: ‘Now I know y'all are probably here for my big announcement and shit but before ya boy gets to that and sets tha world a blaze, let's get tha otha’ things outta the way firs’ ya know wha’ I'm sayin’...”
:: Knight says as he reaches across the table he is sitting at and grabs his soda, condensation can be seen having built up around the soda and where it had been placed. As he takes a few sips from his soda he places back on the table he's sitting at and speaks.::
DESMOND KNIGHT: “As some of yous may know the debut album of my boy Quinton Cross is set for production this week so yea, the afta’ party for that is gonna be atchya boy's favorite nigh’club the Velvet Rabbit in New York City …”
:: As Knight says that he signals for Cross to stand up for some pictures, Cross can be seen wearing the Majestic Entertainment chain and Pendant in support the label he’s signed too...::
DESMOND KNIGHT: “Now don’cha ya’ll go sellin’ these on the street's they gonna be worth a lot more down the road!”
:: Knight says as various flashes can be seen going off in the room around him as he takes a few pictures with Cross.::
DESMOND KNIGHT: “Now… now..”
PRESS AGENT #1: "Mr. Knight! Mr. Knight!"
:: Before Knight can answer, Knight’s personal assistant Reginald Griffins stands up and speaks.::
REGINALD GRIFFINS: “Now, before my boss Mr. Knight makes his announcement.. I do have one I'd like to make myself and that's we're going to hire talent and expand the MAJESTIC brand as we speak…”
:: Knight smiles, before responding.::
DESMOND KNIGHT: “That is true, thou’ it'll be cross-promotion and yours truly will be at tha helm of it all ya know wha’ I'ma sayin’ and now onto a few questions so shoot ‘em out atchya boy!’
:: As Knight says that he's flooded with question after question, he takes on the first person he sees in the crowd of media in attendance for his announcement.::
DESMOND KNIGHT: “Yessir you there…”
PRESS AGENT #1: "What made you sign with Level Up Wrestling and not some other promotion out there Knight?"
DESMOND KNIGHT: “Honestly my agen’ Raymond Gordon is the one who got me the contrac’ deal with Level Up..."
:: As he says that Griffins steps forth and answers the question the press agent had questioned.::
REGINALD GRIFFINS: "Like Mr. Knight, there said Ray was the one who got him the contract deal with Level Up Wrestling and trust me it wasn’ easy, considering’ I was the one who pretty much was in talks with Level Up from the start after Ray had told me about ‘em..
:: Reggie says as he pauses, taking in a breath of fresh air before continuing on.::
REGINALD GRIFFINS: "I had Ray jumping’ through’ loops and setting’ up various meetings with those within Level Up to get Des signed due to his reputation and past history with the law, thou’ in all honesty who wouldn’ have signed the him right? I mean seriously it couldn’ have been the easiest and smartest business move they could have made, considering having Des signed with their promotion is only going to get them more exposure having him signed with them..."
PRESS AGENT #1: “Why’s that Griffins?”
REGINALD GRIFFINS: “Because he’s like a diamond in the rough and well with given time he’ll shine among the rest if and if treated right, and what I mean by that is if he’s given the chance to shine, he easily could end up becoming a big name not just in their promotion but within the wrestling industry in general which I know he will, if given the chance like I said…”
:: Griffins says as Knight points to the next media personal in attendance.::
PRESS AGENT #2: "Desmond! Desmond!"
DESMOND KNIGHT: "Yessir you there..."
:: Knight says addressing the press agent who called out to him.::
PRESS AGENT #2: "How do you feel being one of the newest talents signed to Level Up Wrestling?”
DESMOND KNIGHT: "Um, to be hones’, it feels quite good to be hones’. I mean Imma one of the hottes’ talents currently on the scene as of righ’ now since the debut of my boy Xanda’ Bishop who broke boundaries for G’s like myself so you know..."
:: As Knight says that several more interviewers again begin to ask questions all at once.::
PRESS AGENT #3: "Rumor has it you were thinking of signing with the X-treme Wrestling Federation is that true?"
:: Knight smiles before speaking out again.::
DESMOND KNIGHT: "That’s a good question and allow me to clear that one up for yous all, I indeed was, but in the las’ minute of signin’ a contrac’ deal with them Reggie here had informed me of Level Up and well ya boy decided agains’ it. Now I’d be lyin’ if I said I’d not sign with them or even another promotion like Action Wrestlin’ maybe down the road…”
:: Knight pauses for a second, before grinning.::
DESMOND KNIGHT: “Hell yous easily may indeed see ya boy at some point in time inside a XWF ring hell even maybe an Action Wrestlin’ ring, but until then that shit isn’ happenin’ anytime soon as I’m glad to be apart of the Level Up family bruh.”
PRESS AGENT #4: "Mr. Knight! Mr. Knight.. and what makes Level Up different from well.. XWF or the EWC or any other wrestling promotion out there?"
:: Knight chuckles a little with laughter before answering the reporter's question.::
DESMOND KNIGHT: “Level Up isn’ some glorified promotion looking for a quick cash cow to milk and then kill off much like a few of the others I’m assure have done… Yous see one thing er’body knows is havin’ a hot talen’ like myself would bring ‘em to new heights if I had signed with them, but I didn’ as yous all now know... I signed with Level Up."
:: As he says that the room erupts with various interviewers throwing out more questions at him, as if he had just threw a bucket of blood into a pool of hungry sharks.::
DESMOND KNIGHT: "I’ll answer two more questions for yous all."
PRESS AGENT #5: "What goals or championships do you see yourself going after?"
:: Knight chuckles a little more in laughter before answering the question asked of him.::
DESMOND KNIGHT: "Wha's up with all these cheesy ass questions? No, but seriously that’s for me to know and for yous all to wait and see wha’ unfolds afta’ I make my official debut on EXP.. Now as for championship gold goes I am indeed interested in chasin’ afta’ a few titles when the time presents itself, las’ question…”
:: Knight says as he points to a gorgeous female in the back of the conference room.::
DESMOND KNIGHT: “Yous there.”
PRESS AGENT #6: “Yes, can we expect to see more promoting and producing music from you here at your label once you get more established?”
DESMOND KNIGHT: “That’s always goin’ to be passion numba’ one and somethin’ I’ll neva’ give up. It’s jus’ somethin’ I love to do and to be hones’ it’s not even work for me, it’s more of a pleasure for ya boy if anythin’ to be hones’.”
:: As Knight says that he waves goodbye as he exits the conference room area through a backdoor avoiding any snapping photographs and press agents blurting out questions at him, as he exits through a backdoor Griffins stands back up and begins to speak again.::
REGINALD GRIFFINS: "Thank you all for coming out today, hopefully Des answered some of your questions. We will come to see you all very soon when my boss Mr. Desmond Knight debuts within Level Up Wrestling, until then you’ll just have to wait and see when the magic unfolds!”
:: As Griffins says that he leaves the conference room area walking on out through the same backdoor exit area his boss Desmond Knight had done just moments before, as he does the video feed to today’s press conference ends.::
