The Limoncello Ristorante. It wasn’t his normal type of establishment but the pickings for high end dining in West Chester, Pennsylvania were slim. So Joshua Samson, Esquire had to settle for this quaint Italian restuarant that his client, Astrid Sedin, and he would frequent on occasion when they were back in her hometown. Being the Executive Representative of the local hometown hero afforded Samson a level of fame himself as such he was being catered in a fashion he was more accustomed. Management had secured a private area away from the public eye in order for Samson to enjoy his meal.
The Anarchy General Manager Extraordinaire swirls the glass filled with brown liquid, cherries, and ice cubes before taking a long sip. It had been a good weekend for him, for the Samson Family, for Iconic Sports Management. All of his business plans were maturing according to schedule. Preliminary reports from this weekend’s two house shows and the Anarchy broadcast had come in and the numbers were high. Extremely high. High enough that he knew that the numbers were going to impress Rissi and his Board of Sponsors, because if anything impressed high powered executives it was their coffers filling up with even more currency.
”I am the goddamn man!”
He chuckled after swallowing the strong libation. It was common knowledge Samson was full of himself and current affairs did nothing to diminish that.
”What in the hell is a Corporate Republic Army anyway?!
Astrid and The Mongrel not only captured the Challenge Championship but also exterminated any lasting remnants of Ryan Morgan’s Corporate Republic Army. The first wave of solidified attacks against the Samson Family was successfully thwarted, entrenching his group into the fabric of the company.
”Thankfully we’ll never know.”
He takes a much longer sip from the glass causing him to slightly wince due to the strength of the potent fluid.
”It’s going to take more than a half-assed Hall of Famer and his two-bit lackeys to rid EHWF of the Samson Family.”
Finally securing the services of Brooklyn had paid off instant dividends. Not that Samson didn’t know it wouldn’t as he had been courting the Red-Haired Menace almost from the moment he walked into the company. Brooklyn had stood tall when the rest of the family made their unsolicited appearance at Mayhem as well as exact a measure of revenge against Jason Dave by attacking the two time Hall of Famer backstage in the parking lot during Anarchy.
”Who the hell does Jason Dave think he is anyway?! The guy has two freakin’ first names! I’m going to have to really find a reward befitting for Brooklyn. No one destroys my car, even if it was a rental, and gets away with it. With the trade coming up maybe it would be best to bring him into the fold with the rest of us? Hmmm...”
Another long sip...another wince.
”Aftermath can’t get here fast enough so that Bill can put this ’legend’ out to pasture once and for all. There’ll be no fairytale ending of capturing the Heavyweight title for JayDee’s career. I’ll make damn sure of that.”
Banging the glass back, Samson empties the alcohol down his throat. He fishes into the glass with two fingers and pincers out a cherry after placing the glass on the table. Popping it into his mouth, he peers at the overly expensive timepiece strapped to his wrist.
”Where in the world is this woman? All she had to do was go home and change clothes!”
Shaking his head, he hand gestures for another drink to the attending waiter. He then reaches into his inside breast pocket of his suit jacket to produce his cell phone. Clicking on an unseen application icon, he begins to type but pauses after typing a few characters.
”Why am I even bothering texting her when I know damn well it’s easier to just hit her up on Twitter. At least then I know I’ll get a prompt response.”
With a few finger strokes upon the phone he apparently gets to the social media app and begins to furiously thumb typing bringing the scene to a close.
