Terra Nova Vs Tristan Sabine / Malcom & Hector Have A Brawl Backstage

Revolution Week 3: Tristan faces off against Terra Nova as retribution for Tristan being sidelined for a short period, though Tristan was interviewed about her motivations earlier and it now seems that Salome has hijacked the match as a triggering point for something she has planned. What this is, Tristan is unaware and for better or worse, she is trusting Salome to not set her up. Terra herself is advised by Dimaria to bring back up as Dimaria suspects that with Natasha and Salome back, the likelihood of an “old friend” returning has increased immensely. Terra believes she can handle Tristan and anything Salome or Valkyrie throws at her, especially since Valkyrie has to worry about Dimaria herself and she exposed Natasha for the greenhorn that she is. Dimaria says Terra has been warned and the consequences of not heeding that warning are hers to bear alone. --- After the match concludes, Hector is backstage speaking to Giovanna about Gabrielle, Giovanna expresses concern and was not sure if Hector was aware, but their conversation is cut off by Austin approaching Hector and greeting him. Hector tells Giovanna that they’ll continue their conversation later. Giovanna nods and as she leaves, Austin looks at her and asks if Hector’s got something going on. Hector asks if Austin is perhaps feeling envy. “Envy? Of you? Nah… If anything I feel sorry for you. You, Hector, had a chance to join with me in Anthony’s new vision that he’s got going. With Marcella out of the GM spot, that’s a position ripe for him to slide right into. You and I? We could have been benefactors together, but here we are. You standing there and me here, wondering where it all went south for you.” Austin says as Hector smirks. “I have a title shot coming up. I’m mending things with my brother, I’ve sort of made peace with Jason and Samuel, and I am free to do as my heart desires. Freedom is its own happiness, both in the best and worst of times, because regardless of the situation, you always have the power to choose. But you? You went corporate on me! That sounds lavish, but boring. Enriching, but confining. It’s servitude with fancy dress. And like the obedient little harlot that you are, you said yes to every dotted line without a second thought.” Hector says as Austin laughs at him, but they are then joined by Malcom, Luther, and Marcus. Malcom places an arm around Austin and says Hector is mistaken. “Austin didn’t sign anything. Anthony offered him opportunities and he took the offer. No signatures, no obligations, or commitments. Austin can walk away anytime he wants to, but why would he? He’s living like a king with us! He’s a like minded spirit and you, Hector, could have been one too! Now, after I defeat you this Saturday and retain my championship, I may be willing to entertain hearing you out. All you’d have to do is admit you were wrong and I would be more than happy to send the word up to Anthony. He’s merciful, very merciful. He knows your value too. Why not give it a shot?” Malcom asks as Hector laughs. “Or how about this, Malcom In The Middle, I kick your ass, become a three time King’s Crowned Champion aka Triple Crowned Champion, and then I just ride off into the sunset into the new year. Tell me, what happens when you lose that title? What happens when Macbeth rises from the grave and takes his kingdom back?” Hector asks as Malcom glares at him. “You will never be a champion again. Not you. Not your sister and certainly not that simpleton idiot brother of yours. Gabrielle is older than Alex, no? Hmm. Seems your parent’s gene pool got worse and worse as the next little Lacroix blossomed. Guess they at least knew when to stop.” Malcom says as Hector glares at him looks away and pats Malcom’s shoulder before headbutting him. A brawl then ensues where Hector is initially overwhelmed, but eventually Fenrik joins in as well as Scotty, who shares a brief look with Hector before they all even the odds out. Security and Seymour storm in and break things up and Seymour demands they stop and then says he will sort their problems out next week, but warns that if they have any more incidents between now and End of Days, the one who throws the first punch will be suspended indefinitely and if they’re a champion, that title will be stripped. He says the last part while glaring at Malcom and then pointing to Fenrik. Malcom and his group back away as Hector looks at Scotty, who asks what he’s doing here. Lady gently grips Scotty’s arm and Scotty clarifies that he’s not fond of Hector, but he respects Fenrik and hates Malcom more than him. Scotty then expects they’ll be needing each other later in the week. Scotty says he’ll back Hector, but should Hector win the title back, Scotty will be narrowing in on him. Hector smirks and welcomes him to give it another go as he does need to get one over on Scotty anyways. Scotty nods and then walks off as Fenrik pats Hector’s back.
