Team Payne meeting. Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Saturday 22nd September (Off Camera)
At one point before the meeting started, Konrad met up with Kem Dynamo to calm her down before the Outlast PPV begins and that his mental trainer Jerry Flack wanted to come, but Konrad rejected the idea of it all. They were sitting in the burger joint known as Burgatory to discuss business which was very strange for Konrad to be somewhere that was smelling of meat which was the first for many years.
Apart from meeting with Kem Dynamo a few moments ago, it’s the first time he interacted with anybody in the team. Lucy was already at the table while Konrad arrived as he took a seat with Lucy and looks at the menu. While both Konrad and Lucy decided what they were going to eat, Mizore and Kem return from the restroom and sit at their large table with Lucy and Konrad.
Kem Dynamo: “Sorry I’m late, guys.”
Lucy Wylde: “You’re fine.”
While everyone had decided what they were going to eat, it was a bit of a struggle for Konrad since he’s on a vegetarian diet that he’s been on for many years, only recently got back into his diet to cut some weight for being a junior heavyweight wrestler. Konrad mentions this to everyone,
Konrad Raab: “I’m not really sure there’s anything here I would feel good about eating.”
Kem Dynamo: “Oh right. I didn’t think much about that.”
Konrad Raab: “It’s fine. I’m sure I’ll find...something.”
It took time for Konrad to decide what he’s going to eat with everyone already ordering what they’ll eat in the restaurant. Konrad chose salad meal that has no content of meat at all, just vegetables and he ordered a bottle of water with his meal, showing how strict he is to keep to his diet. While the waiter went away to get food, Mizore gets everyone’s attention and says this.
Mizore Payne: “Alright now that we’re all here, let’s talk about Outlast.”
Lucy Wylde: “What do you want to talk about? We go in there, we kick ass, and some of us move on. “
Mizore Payne: “It’s more than that. I know this is all about getting to that World Title shot but to get there we have to win a team match, and beyond just winning, I really want us ALL to get there.”
Kem Dynamo: “All four advancing? That’s never happened before!”
Which is the main point of the team as Konrad nodded, considering he only found out about Outlast rules and what to do to win the match as a team, especially he, Kem and Miz have only joined UGWC this year. Mizore brings out another point´to say to the whole team.
Mizore Payne: “There’s a first time for everything!”
Lucy Wylde: “It’s never been done before because it’s almost impossible. I’ve fought Zane and Sarah. They won’t go down easily.”
Konrad Raab: “Of course not, but they can certainly go down. There’s a lot of ego in that pairing, a lot of arrogance.”
Although Konrad and Zane showed signs of respect during the match they had a week ago and Konrad generally respected him as a wrestler and his achievements in the company on top of having a solid match, but he heard Zane was arrogant about the match as the waiter brought their drinks over before leaving them to discuss the meeting as nearly everyone took a sip of their drinks before Kem says something in response.
Kem Dynamo: “Yeah, Zane has completely dismissed us as a team, and Sarah has gone the other way and assumed that we are united solely to get back at her.”
Lucy Wylde: “She WOULD think that.”
Mizore Payne: “But that’s what I’m saying! The four of us can work as a team better than they can.”
Kem Dynamo: “It’s true. I know they were co-operative champions, but both of them won those titles with partners they trusted and had serious chemistry with. That chemistry isn’t there between those two.”
Things were going well in the meeting so far as it was important the trust was there between everyone in the team and Konrad nodded in agreement as he responds to the things being said to him about their team.
Konrad Raab: “They believe they can make this a series of one-on-ones and win that way. If we can work like a team as opposed to four individuals, we will have a significant advantage.”
Kem Dynamo: “We need to keep our eye out on Lucky and “Fauxovan” too. I don’t know what Lord Hastings has up his sleeve, but I don’t expect him to just sit back and let his favorite wrestler fall short. And Lucky might seem like a good guy, but he’s DMW and that means his brothers would do anything to help him.”
Lucy Wylde: “Look, we need to accept the way things are. Not everyone is going to make it through to the final match. We need to work as a team, yes, but one or more of us is gonna go down.”
Lucy had a valid point to remind everyone in the team, it’s not a tag match, it’s an elimination tag match which means one member gets eliminated if they are pinned or submitted in the match as Konrad remembered himself on what Jerry said to him this morning which Mizore agreed with when she says this.
Mizore Payne: “I don’t want that to happen.”
Lucy Wylde: “And thinking that way is gonna get you burned. Those guys are smart and they’ll ruthless. Sarah would sacrifice Lucky in a heartbeat if it meant eliminating one of us.”
Konrad Raab: That’s true.
Kem Dynamo: Guys, we know how this can go wrong, but let’s look at how this goes right. Konrad is a beast, and I’ll take his strength and experience over Lucky’s brawling. Lucy has a winning record versus Sarah and that was before she got injured and was healthier than she is now. The cardboard can be a game changer but someone has to use it, and if we take out Lucky and Sarah, Zane won’t have anyone left to take our eyes off the ball.”
Everyone received their food at this point and it went quiet for a while as they were eating their burgers and chips or a salad meal in his case as while everyone was eating away, Mizore stopped eating for a bit when she says this to encourage her team to say these inspiration words.
Mizore Payne: “We are the better team. Pain and Paradox are tough, but we’re tougher. We’re gonna win this. Right?”
Kem Dynamo: “Right!”
Konrad Raab: “Right!”
Lucy Wylde: “Yeah.”
Mizore looks at Lucy, hoping she’ll join in, although she wanted to eat her last bites of her burger before she corrects herself to say this.
Lucy Wylde: “Okay fine...Right!”
Everyone was quietly eating, getting to know one another from what their interests are and how much the match meant to each member of the team, including Konrad himself who knew in his head as much as Jerry tries to get him out of it, he wasn’t deserving of a World title shot at all after his performances in UGWC lately that have been nothing, but disappointing. They covered everything in the meeting and after they’ve eaten and paid for their food, they went in their own separate ways to head back where they needed to go to which in Konrad’s case, he goes back to his hotel and works out in the gym for an hour before he heads back to his hotel room to get some sleep before he speaks on camera at Sunday afternoon.

Konrad having a lot of faith in team Payne to win Outlast youtube.com shoot. (On camera)
“It goes without saying that I only know and fought half of the team Team Payne are going up against mainly because I’ve not been in UGWC for a long time and I likely won’t drag out much details about Lucky or Donovan Hastings due to my lack of information about them as I’ve not seen them wrestle since I’ve been here however, I know the other two members of Zane and Sarah Lacklan very well as I’ve had matches with them recently.
I know I got a talented bunch of girls on my team and I might be the only guy who’s apart of the team, but I know I have every ounce of faith in them doing well in this match up to lead us to go for the title against Alan Wallace who once again, have no information of either, but more than Lucky and Donovan.
What I did find out about Lucky is that he loves his motorcycle club he has with other buddies with him. I’m sure you’ve achieved something here in UGWC and I give you respect for them. Of course while my wife would like you for having a bike and being apart of a motorcycle club, she also knows me or other team members will have to make sure you’re pinned in the ring because it’s just how things are, but because I’ve not seen you in the ring, you are a dark horse of winning the match for your team.
Same could be said for Donovan Hastings who once again, have not much if any information about him because once again, I’ve not seen him in action. Maybe he and Lucky might’ve been in the rumble, but I didn’t watch the rumble match so I can’t judge for his or Lucky’s performance in the rumble, but I also know he’s in the Hall Of Fame books for his achievements in the company. All those achievements are in the past and still have faith that either me or any members of my team to pin you.
Oh, don’t we have some beef Sarah? Oh yes, I know the ton of crap you said about me not achieving much , but do you honestly think I’ve denied to anything I’ve said? No, and you’re silly to not know me that well, considering you should’ve done your homework before then that I don’t lie to anything I say, compared to yourself when you said you deserved the tag titles over me and Phrixus?
What I find funny is you were unable to defeat Dave Rydell who I might add I’ve outlasted him in the fatal four way match recently and got payback for attacking me when in reality, you only got involved in the tag title hunt was because of Kenzie winning the match for you so no, you haven’t done anything to benefit your team which is why you and Kenzie have no interest in the belts again. I won’t hesitate to pin you for everything you said and even done as well when you got praised from Phrixus of how useless I was when I was the only wrestler in the match that didn’t need to resort to breaking the rules like you and Phrixus did and gets nowhere to win matches.
Zane, I left you last because well, we’ve fought each other last week and I admire the respect you gave me after the match because I felt we really brought it against each other and enjoyed wrestling you without breaking rules or doing anything illegal in the match. We put on a show for the fans and they loved everything we’ve done. However, while you was funny with Donovan, you didn’t notice or know the reason why I’m The Iceman is because of my addiction to ice and snow.
Thing is I perform better in the snow and cold conditions than hot baking conditions because I’m used to being cold and I used to create games related to snow before I became a wrestler. Has nothing to do with special powers or my personality, it’s all down to what I enjoyed doing throughout my entire life and as much as I respect you as a wrestler and as a person, we team Payne have to pin you for the three count.
All I know with Alan Wallace is he’s holding both Cross-Hemisphere and the UGWC World title, but he's likely underrating everyone because that’s exactly what he’s been doing a lot with his time as a champion and it’s selfish of him to not think about dropping the Cross-Hemisphere title because who needs to win two titles at once? If I was him, I would’ve dropped the Cross-Hemisphere title as soon as I won the UGWC World title. We gonna be going through to the finals and beat you down for one of us to become the new UGWC World Champion and I certainly want to be one of those wrestlers that do.
Because we are gonna work as a team better than everyone we’re gonna be faced against and we may encounter teams on the way, but we’re ready for you teams as well, to prepare a fight none of you can get out of. Tomorrow night here in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania, Team Payne are gonna shock the world for us to be World title contenders and only one of us will win the belt and that will be me. Good luck everyone cos you’re gonna need it when me, Kem, Mizore and Lucy will have our arms raised to overcome other teams in the tournament to win the entire thing and the title in our hands.”
