“Death of the fool, birth of the cruel…”
My life changed on 8/27/2019, thanks to the people listed above. As I looked at my wife in that hospital bed, I couldn’t help thinking many number of things. Primarily, how was this heinous act allowed to happen and why is there no punishment for it? I understand that there are some difficulties running a promotion. After all, it wasn’t too long ago that Veronica and I were in charge around here. I know that there are always going to be certain variables that come into play, that perhaps you did not see coming. I can forgive not having the foresight to prevent such an act to go unpunished, but what I could not wrap my head around is why there was no punishment given out.
I had already made my mind up the second I saw what these savages did to my wife, that I was going to come here and start asking questions. I talked to Drew Bryant about it, and it all became clear to me. The Consortium wanted her gone. Silas Mason and Aiken Frost were even more involved in Emerge than I thought they were. Silas Mason and Aiken Frost are truly evil sons of bitches, so it can not come as much of a surprise that they would pressure Drew Bryant into inaction when it comes to The Unforgiven. So basically they are going to force him to go along with their every whim and desire. That essentially means that so long as Veronica wants to return to this sport, she is always going to have to worry about this sort of fucking thing happening again.
August 27th, 2019 was the death of the fool and the birth of the cruel...
The one and only Ace Of Annihilation, The Guru Of Gore, “Devious” Danny Darko is standing by for the first time in a many, many years as a wrestler. He is at across from Sallie Graham, the journalist who gets all the juicy interviews. He has an expectedly intense and deadly serious look on his face as he readies himself for a barrage of questions. He might not admit it, but given what he did to Jason King he might also be tense due to expecting retaliation.
Sallie Graham: Thank you for choosing me to conduct this very special interview. It’s kind of surreal, honestly, to be sitting here with you now.
Danny Darko: Yeah, yeah, yeah. I just chose you because you gave that bitch Cindy Todd a chance to talk to you, spewing her nonsense on the Emerge airwaves. So I figured I would give you a chance to balance out your karma.
Sallie Graham: My karma? I was only doing my job.
Danny Darko: I get that and I understand that the hot story in Emerge involves the heinous torment and humiliation that Cindy Todd was apparently the architect of. So it makes sense that you would want to get to the bottom of it. However, I am here to provide the counterpoint since the is pretty much nobody here that will do so.
Sallie Graham: You are likely right about that. There really is not anybody left on this roster that was here when you and Vanilla were in charge. So what is your counterpoint?
Danny Darko: Let me just start off by talking about the effects that Cindy and The Unforgiven’s attack had on me. After all, even a month ago I would have never considered a return to the business. So let me tell you about every feeling I’ve gone through in the past few weeks. And then maybe I will detail why Cindy Todd is, and always has been full of shit.
Sallie Graham: Fair enough, Mr. Darko.
Danny Darko: I’m going to start off with a little anecdote now, I’m going to paint you a picture of where my head has been lately. When I first got to the hospital where Vee was taken, I could barely bring myself to even look at her. Now, it’s horrifying enough to look at anybody in that condition, but the amount of grief and sorrow I felt upon laying my eyes on the woman who has meant more to me than anybody else in my 40 years of life, the woman who quite literally saved my life? To give you some perspective, I was not even this level of utter, all-encompassing sadness when my parents passed. Vee did more for me than my own parents and my own brother for that matter have ever done for me. I owe her fucking everything.
Danny’s eyes are quite watery even now as he speaks about it. He sniffs his nose and continues on.
Danny Darko: So yeah, I was so fucking depressed when I first saw the effects of what The Unforgiven did to Vee. The carnage is unlike anything that my wife has experienced before, which is saying a hell of a lot. I was trying to do anything to take my mind away from it when she was sleeping in that hospital bed. Of course, you can’t drink yourself into a stupor at the hospital so I tried to distract myself with music. Well, that was going well until I was listening to the latest Taylor Swift album and...I did not know this at the time but Taylor has a track on the album titled “Soon You’ll Get Better” and it’s such a beautifully sad song that I just couldn’t stop bawling my eyes out when I finished listening to it. I googled the song afterwards and it turns out that Taylor wrote that song about her mother who has been battling cancer. It was though the song was channeling my thoughts in regards to my wife. Who am I supposed to talk to if there is no her?
Danny buries his head in his hands, overcome by his emotions.
Sallie Graham: I...I’m sorry that you had to go through that.
Danny looks at her with tears in his eyes, clearly still quite raw emotionally. He tilts his head as he responds.
Danny Darko: Are you now? Does anybody really give a shit about what happened in that ring? It was criminal! And for what? For what?
Sallie Graham: Well, Cindy said--
Danny Darko: Oh, I watched your interview with her! My head has been all over the fucking place lately and I’ve certainly taken enough shots to my brain that it can be hard to figure some things out. But unless I’m mistaken, my wife had to suffer tremendously so that Emerge can thrive and eventually run SCW out of business? I’ve had lots of time to try and wrap my brain around this. But in a nutshell, SCW wouldn’t hire Willow Wilkes, Jason King, or Cindy herself out of fear of what they could do? And the means for propelling them all up to the top of this business is making sure that SCW no longer owns Emerge? Is that right so far?
Sallie Graham: Sounds pretty much what she detailed, yes.
Danny is getting more and more worked up by the second.
Danny Darko: Has it ever occurred to Cindy that maybe SCW didn’t want anything to do with her or anybody managed with her because they’re simply not worth the time? I’ve seen the SCW roster and I know quite well the wrestlers that moved up to SCW from Emerge in my time as Assistant GM. The best example being Peyton Rice and she definitely proved that she belongs in SCW. No doubt about it. The point is there are more than enough extraordinarily talented wrestlers on the SCW roster that I doubt there was any room for The Unforgiven. Cute little name, by the way.
Darko spat out that last little barb with a real venomous sarcasm.
Danny Darko: Anyhow, I wouldn’t even give a flying fuck about any of that had they not decided that they NEEDED, just NEEDED to make an example out of my wife. It was nothing more than a symbolic gesture intended to be seen as a purging of the OLD EMERGE. It means nothing in terms of where Emerge goes from this point forward, right? Because unless I’m mistaken, The Consortium are already pulling the string at this point. Every single aspect of this is crooked bullshit. Every single aspect! Let me tell you what Vee and I were told when we were chosen to get Emerge off the ground. Of course since Emerge was a brand new promotion and SCW were the sole reason for its creation, Cindy is right about that one thing. We were told to find the best talent and help them take the next step and help keep adding new or previously overlooked talent to their roster. The understanding was that one day if everything went well enough Emerge would branch out and no longer be used as essentially a feeder pool for SCW. Vee and I understood the situation and looked forward to eventually one day seeing Emerge grow enough and be successful enough that Emerge would be seen as being at the same level as SCW. Does that make sense to you, Sallie?
Sallie Graham: It does. I was unaware of any of what you’re saying.
Danny Darko: Of course you were! None of this was supposed to be aired out in public, but all Vee and I ever wanted was to continue to grow and evolve Emerge. Unfortunately the way we were repaid for our hard work in doing so was that we were removed from power and replaced essentially by The Consortium. I used to have a lot of respect for Drew Bryant and I appreciate his aspirations, but if you didn’t see the manipulations of Cindy, Silas, and Aiken coming, then you really aren’t that bright, are ya? Come on, Drew. So where do we stand now? Emerge!? Well, instead of an absolute legend representing the promotion as it looks to compete with SCW or usurp SCW’s position in the wrestling world, we got another in a long line of Mary Beth Mallory wannabes serving as the face of the company. Willow Wilkes is undoubtedly a talented little bitch, but you saw it with your own eyes at Emerge 27...she is nowhere close to Vee’s level. Vee was beating the shit outta her and had her dead to rights until the cycle repeated. Cindy and The Consortium placed their bets on the wrong horse, metaphorically speaking, so they had to come right out and make it blatantly obvious that they were never going to allow Vee to become the champion. Of course, they didn’t have a choice because they know that Vee can never be controlled, much like myself. I will no longer stand idly by and watch them destroy what Vee and I worked so hard to create. And I sure as fuck am not going to let a single one of them get away with what they did to my wife unscathed!!!
Sallie Graham: Fair enough, I suppose. Any thoughts on your first match out of retirement? You will be fighting alongside Sierra Swann and Madeline Masters in a battle against YUYO, Jake Shelley, and Donovan Street.
Darko: Right. No disrespect to anybody involved in this match, but I really am too fucking angry right now to give a flying fuck about any of them. As for potentially winning a title shot? I want to just say right that I’m not in this for championships. I’ve won my fair share of championships throughout my career and the idea of having one of them again? It’s not particularly thrilling at this point in my life. Frankly, if I desired to be called a champion I would have never put myself in a position where I was essentially forced to retire. My championship aspirations would have swayed me from ever considering it. Now, ha going said that, I know that for someone like Willow Wilkes and the fuckheads who perpetrated the assault on my wife, having that Emerge Championship means a whole hell of a lot. So, if in the course of exacting my revenge, if I obtain the Emerge Championship? So be it.
Graham: Anything you want to say to the participants in the match? Surely you have something to say about Donovan Street.
Darko shrugs and smirks. He knew it was unlikely he would get away without talking about Donovan Street. It’s the kind of shit he does not feel like dealing with in the state he is in...but he knows it’s all just a means to an end.
Darko: In his own words, he has never forgiven me for what I did to Trinity all those many years. So ironically enough, I am also unforgiven. I don’t know what to say about that shithead, really. I was already put through hell by Trinity and she has forgiven me for what I did to her. Her and I are even on good enough terms that she gave me her blessing to come out of retirement. Of course, maybe that has more time do with Trinity’s respect for my wife than anything to do with me. But back to Donovan Street? He has essentially been the one member of the Street family to never really amount to much. The forgotten Street, if you will. But that doesn’t mean I’m overlooking his skills. He is no doubt a threat inside that ring and perhaps even more of a threat outside of it.
Graham: I am not sure if you acknowledged it on social media, but due to your attack on Jason King, the Emerge Champion informed the world that her husband suffered a neck injury and brain damage. Is there anything you would like to say specifically to Willow Wilkes?
Darko responds with an expressionless face and a bit of a sneer as he looks straight into the camera.
Darko: Willow...you are no god, you are no monster. Neither was your husband and for that matter, the same goes for your “Queen” Cindy Todd. We are all at the end of the day fragile creatures. There are no exceptions. I will never forgive you for what you and your faction of thugs did to my wife and I’m going to take it out on each and every single one of you. Believe your own delusions for as long as you can. Now, you said that your husband is hurt and you’re going to hurt every single person in Emerge until you get your revenge. And I will repeat what I told you on Twitter: Emerge had nothing to do with what I did to your husband. That was all me. You want your revenge? Well guess what? I’m right here.
Graham: Anything else you have to say?
Darko: There is plenty I have to say, but now is not the time or the place.
Graham: Thank you for your time and welcome back.
