We come back from the break to find Luis Montes back in his seat again. He had gotten rid of the index cards he was holding before. Madison Carter sits across from Montes while still holding the FTW Championship belt over her shoulder.
LUIS MONTES
Welcome back to part three of my sit-down interview with the Princess of The Kingdom Madison Carter. After the first two parts of this interview, I completely understand why you feel that this would not have been allowed on the Revolution airwaves. Speaking of previous parts, as you saw in the second part of this interview, I had asked Madison’s opinion of each member of The Aces here in UPRISING. That leaves just one left to ask you about and that’s the UPRISING World Champion Kevin Mears.
Madison rolls her neck around a bit to loosen up and then takes a deep breath.
MADISON CARTER
This has been a long time coming, so, we might as well get into it. Kevin Mears, shit, there is a lot that I can say about Kevin Mears, but the truth of the matter is this. When I first signed with UPRISING? He was the Silver State Champion. He seemed to be the guy who worked hard and took on all challengers for his title. He walked the walk and he talked the talk. I took notice of him and thought to myself "This is the guy who will be the face of this company in the future." In my mind, Kevin was the man that I thought I would have to go through if I ever wanted to be the top wrestler in UPRISING.
LUIS MONTES
That is high praise.
MADISON CARTER
It is, but that’s the thing about Kevin. From a distance, you can't help but admire what he's done, but then that comes to a screeching halt when you get to know Kevin Mears as a person. All of that hard work and effort was just arrogance and insecurity packaged and presented as talent using Christmas-themed wrapping paper. Kevin was the charismatic guy here in UPRISING, but then Jace joined. And then I joined. And then more and more talented people decided to join and that spotlight which was squarely on Kevin, and Kevin alone, wasn’t there anymore. He started to realize that the tired-ass bullshit that got him over before we all got here, wasn’t going to work anymore. So, what did Kevin do?
Madison lets the question linger between them for a moment.
MADISON CARTER
He started to play copycat. He saw that someone like Jace, who had Samantha, he had me, and then came Jezebel and finally Trixie. So, little Kevvy decided that he needed a haram of his own. He made the decision that he needed “Aces” to surround him if he was going to survive in an ocean that was now filled with sharks. The problem is that all of the people he wanted on his side were already with or gravitating toward Jace. Kevin did the only thing he could do, he started to dig into the clearance bin of so-called talent on the roster. He nabbed up Serenity quickly before she could side with anyone else. Did it make sense at the time? No, it didn’t, but when you dangle your Championship belt in the face of a naive teenage whore. Well, you see how that’s gone. So, he had one person. But then who was left? There were plenty of people left. Very good male talent started to flood into the company, but that wasn’t good enough for Mears. He couldn’t be like Jace if he wasn’t the only male in his group full of women.
Luis adjusts himself in his seat and nods his head slowly while Madison continues.
MADISON CARTER
So, he starts to “train” female wrestlers and brings in this one girl whose name I can’t remember. I think her last name was Vega, but she flamed out faster than a Molly Hatchet UPRISING World Championship reign. He reached way down the clearance bin for Talia Skye because, "Hey, she kind of held a title once for a little bit." And then pretty much every semi-talented woman that ever entered UPRISING was approached by Kevin Mears or he made a point to introduce himself to them on social media. From the Winters girl to Lola before she disappeared into the ether. He approached Vega before she and her son became Unity Champions and told them how “impressed” he was with their skills. That they were what he was looking for in an Ace. He tried to befriend Samantha, he tried to befriend me. If you had a set of tits and flaps between your legs? Then you’re familiar with that cheesy fucking Kevin Mears smile.
Madison’s body shudders a bit just thinking about it.
MADISON CARTER
Of course, Samantha wins the World Championship from Chris Mosh and Mears is just stewing about it. He’s plotting and scheming behind the scenes while trying to play nice to your face. And for a time, he had both Jace and Samantha fooled, but not me. I know a fucking scumbag when I see one. I saw behind the fake gestures of kindness and friendship to the core of what is nothing more than a beta male copycat with Little Man’s Syndrome.
LUIS MONTES
Are you suggesting that the UPRISING World Champion has a Napoleon Complex?!
MADISON CARTER
I’m not suggesting it, Luis, I’m outright stating that he does. Kevin Mears is a try-hard who tries to mask his obvious insecurities with over-the-top confidence and fake bravado. The talent pool in UPRISING upgraded and it’s caused our poor midget World Champion to go through an identity crisis. He wants to be the coolest guy in the room, but he also wants to be the macho douchebag who doesn’t care about anything, especially professional wrestling. But then, he also wants to be the smartest man that ever lived, the richest man that ever lived. The biggest draw in a sport he claims not to love, all while trying to play the nice guy with any female that will make the little boy inside him feel like a big man. I’m pretty sure at this point, that Kevin Mears has more confusing personality traits than he owns pairs of tighty whities.
Montes once again stifles a laugh as he shakes his head.
LUIS MONTES
All that might be valid in your mind, but you can’t argue with the results.
MADISON CARTER
What results exactly? Yeah, he was Silver State Champion when I joined UPRISING, but who did he beat for the belt? Some guy named Jack Moreau? Isn’t that person somehow related to GORGO or something? Is he the vegetable that she was wheeling around for a while? I have no idea honestly, but the point is that it’s not like people talk about how great of a wrestler he was when he was here in UPRISING. He built up that title belt just to shit it all away for a fistful of ass and a handjob. He disgraced that belt, just to go around threatening management saying he wouldn’t just re-sign with the company unless his conditions were met. He wanted all the money, he wanted a guaranteed title shot, and Lord knows what else.
LUIS MONTES
He views himself as an elite athlete and wants to be paid like one.
Madison gags at Montes’ comment.
MADISON CARTER
He realizes that UPRISING is a small promotion based in Reno, correct? We might have one show that airs on The Splat Network, but the other show only airs on YouTube. We hold a large majority of our events in the same building because the company can only afford to hold events outside of Nevada a handful of times a year. The Little Man Syndrome was running wild. You kill the prestige of one belt, then threaten to walk out of the door and take all of your little groupies with you if management doesn’t bend over backward for you. That’s all he talked about for weeks and then what happened?
LUIS MONTES
Well… he got his new contract.
MADISON CARTER
He got it alright, but for all the talk and bluster that was made about it. It sure went over like a slur said in 2023. It was being built up as a main event, a must-see kind of contract signing. People were supposed to tune into Revolution to watch it happen live, but then common sense set it. Someone in power decided that watching Kevin Mears gloat about himself and write his name on a piece of paper wouldn’t bring in the ratings he claimed it would. So, whatever business was conducted was done behind the camera just like it's done with everyone else. The word through the grapevine backstage is that Mighty Midget has stewed over that for a long time now. That he has some sort of chip on his shoulder because his contract signing didn’t turn out to be a bigger thing than LeBron James telling the world that he was taking his talents to South Beach.
LUIS MONTES
Sometimes major athletes can be a bit temperamental.
Madison looks over at Luis like he’s lost his mind.
MADISON CARTER
Temperamental? No, Mears was a raging bitch about it. He needed a gift basket full of chocolate and an entire box of Midol to settle the rage in his heart. But that’s the REAL Kevin Mears. You peel away all the stupid gimmicks and bullshit then you find the walking raw nerve that he truly is. Every little thing that happens that doesn’t go exactly how he wants it to go causes him to throw a temper tantrum behind closed doors, but he pretends like it doesn’t bother him.
LUIS MONTES
Can you give me an example?
MADISON CARTER
I can give you several. After he cheated to beat Jace in their match, he got all grumpy and decided not to comment when he thought it was possible that his one-on-one guaranteed title shot would be turned into a triple threat match with GORGO added to it. What he called “holding off talking about the main event of Solstice III until the card was announced” was really just him gathering together the ultimatum he would deliver to management if he didn’t get the one-on-one match that he thought he “deserved.”
LUIS MONTES
A contract is a contract. They are binding.
MADISON CARTER
Binding are they? Well, that’s curious because the other members of The Kingdom and I were told everyone was banned from ringside during the main event of Solstice III. Yet, there was Kevin Mears out there wrestling with Mia in his corner. The Kingdom is not allowed to come out and watch, but Kevin is allowed to have his interviewer at ringside for the main event of the finale. And why does Kevin Mears need his own personal interviewer, anyway? Don’t we have you and two other people who are paid to do the interviews in UPRISING? Are the employees of UPRISING not good enough to do their jobs for Kevin Mears? Is he that special?
Luis crosses one leg over the other and grumbles under his breath.
MADISON CARTER
It’s okay, Luis. Mears doesn’t want you to conduct his interviews because you’re not willing to touch his penis. The Kingdom appreciates the effort and hard work you put into your job.
Luis smiles widely at the compliment but clears his throat and tries to remain unbiased.
LUIS MONTES
That sounds like quite the accusation. You’re suggesting that Kevin Mears has some kind of amorous activities with Mia.
MADISON CARTER
Luis, sweetheart, I know Mia. We both work at the Velvet Rabbit and dance together once a week. Do you think we girls don’t talk about all the juicy details before we go out on stage? You don’t exclude men from your group if you’re a stand-up gentleman. You don’t need a female personal interviewer, who has access to your locker room, among other things, if you weren’t dipping your hands into her cookie jar. You don’t invite your ex-girlfriend to become a member of your group if you’re in a committed, monogamous relationship. From Mia to Miss Kat, and all the other females that have had Kevin’s “training” before. It’s not that hard to see, the writing is all over the walls. Being a male and being good at your job takes a backseat with Kevin Mears if he can't stick his dick in you.
LUIS MONTES
You seem upset, maybe even jealous, that Kevin seemingly is taking a page out of Jace’s playbook.
Madison waves her free hand dismissively.
MADISON CARTER
I’m not upset or jealous about it. I’m more annoyed with the entire charade if anything. I’m in the Kingdom and I’ve been around Jace longer than even Samantha. I know first-hand what goes on behind closed doors with us. The thing is, none of us try and lie about it. We make no secret about who we are and what we do. Kevin and The Aces are all about lies, bullshit, and manipulation. Serenity should just come out and admit what everyone already saw. She sucked Mears’ dick for the Silver State Championship belt, but she’d rather die on the hill that says "That’s not how it went down." They should just admit that Talia is deadweight to the group and she’s only still around because they haven’t found a suitable female replacement yet. Kevin should just come out and say that he’s nothing more than a Himbo, instead of lying about how he and Serenity are exclusive to each other. That's never going to happen because the whole group is nothing more than a sad High School drama and Mears isn’t fit to be the World Champion.
LUIS MONTES
How are we supposed to know you’re not saying that out of personal bias?
MADISON CARTER
Look around, Luis. Where has Kevin Mears been honestly?
LUIS MONTES
He’s the UPRISING World Champion. He’s been busy doing media obligations and promoting the company!
MADISON CARTER
Has he? Show me where all of this media promotion is happening outside of that one radio interview he did alongside Serenity. Just because Kevin says that’s what he’s doing, it doesn’t mean that’s the truth. If Mears was busy promoting the company and his matches as he claims, be it through the media or on Twitch, then certainly I would have seen or heard about it, right? We live in the age of the internet and technology. If Mears was out there running his mouth about me or any other member of The Kingdom to the public, then it would have gotten back to us, but it hasn’t. So, until I see proof and evidence to prove me wrong? I will continue to call out Mears for being the fucking liar that he is.
LUIS MONTES
Becoming the UPRISING World Champion is a life-changing event.
Madison nods her head and leans forward.
MADISON CARTER
I agree, but that means that having your celebration for winning the belt ruined to end season three should be just as important. That’s common sense, but look at Kevin. When has he even mentioned it? The biggest win in your UPRISING career and you got beat down to end season three, but Kevin would rather pretend it never happened. If winning the UPRISING World Championship is a life-changing event, then why hasn’t even come out to the ring holding the Championship belt proudly while talking to the fans in the building and around the world about it?
LUIS MONTES
Life gets a little busy sometimes!
MADISON CARTER
Don’t give me that bullshit, Luis. Kevin Mears gets paid to be the holder of the torch here in UPRISING. He demanded that he make the most money for him to even sign a new contract. He’s the UPRISING World Champion, which means that UPRISING should be his #1 priority, but obviously, it's not. Holding that belt is what you threatened to leave and sign somewhere else for. It’s what you demanded a guaranteed shot at and if you didn’t get it, you were going to take yourself, Serenity, and your group out of the company. You’ve lied, you’ve cheated, and you’ve manipulated your way to that belt, but now that you have it, this is the effort you put forth?
Madison begins to get angry as she speaks.
MADISON CARTER
He wanted so badly to be "The Guy." He acted like he needed to be "The Face of the Company" more than he needed oxygen. And now it’s just whatever? Miss me with that bullshit.
LUIS MONTES
Everyone handles things diff--
Madison snaps at Luis.
MADISON CARTER
LET ME FINISH!
Luis is taken aback by Madison’s tone but decides not to argue.
MADISON CARTER
Kevin has time to travel around and hang out in fucking New Jersey of all places. He has time to go and compete for the XWF and travel internationally with them. He had time to make a big deal out of his birthday and hold a shitty little event of his own to celebrate, that no one outside of his band of groupies gave a single fuck about. He has time to gather and stack all of these random bitches that suddenly want to be wrestlers or need special training. So, why isn’t UPRISING and that Championship belt his #1 priority? He had the nerve to go on the radio and talk about how he has other things going on in his life and he doesn’t have time to spend on social media blah, blah, blah. Is that the best he’s got? We all know what you’re busy doing, Kevin. It’s extremely sad, that they’re resorting to Ace Sky and Amy Santino tactics when you’re the one that talked the most shit about those two doing the same shit you’re doing right now. Is this what management views as the best that this company has to offer?!
Madison turns her head from side to side looking for an answer but one doesn’t come.
MADISON CARTER
I’m tired of the bullshit. I’m tired of the fucking schoolyard games. We’re all fucking adults, but it feels like I work at a fucking daycare center. The truth is that Kevin Mears doesn’t like to talk about what happened at the end of Solstice III because he’s mad about it. Just like he’s mad about the fact that Jace and I defeated Talia and her "Jack" on Revolution 1. I guess he's not as smart as he thinks he is, huh? He can keep harping on how he gave Serenity all the cheat codes to beat Samantha, but apparently, that shit didn’t work against Jace and me. Kevin Mears hasn’t bothered to step up and do a solo interview in the arena as World Champion because he’s scared. He’s worried that the ass beating he got at the end of Solstice III is going to happen all over again. I can tell you right now that it can and will, Kevin. You can’t run away and hide forever.
LUIS MONTES
I’m starting to feel like your grudge against Mears runs deeper than your grudge against Serenity.
MADISON CARTER
Serenity is a dumb child that’s had far too many people like Kevin Mears in her ear filling her head and pumping up her ego. She’s just now figuring out how to handle life after High School. At least, she has somewhat of an excuse for being the dumpster fire that she is. Kevin, on the other hand, has no excuse at all. I don’t like Kevin Mears nor do I respect him as the World Champion of this company. My respect is earned through effort and determination. Yes, I rip into people like the MM bitches, Amy Santino, or Walker Hill. Why? It’s because the efforts and determination they put out aren’t acceptable to be members of this roster or Champions. Kevin Mears doesn’t get to be excluded from that group if he’s putting out the same kind of worthless trash that they have. I’m sure once this interview airs, he’ll sit back and be mad about this too or he’ll come out of hiding and talk about me like he’s so superior. Yet, it was just weeks ago that Mears was nothing but nice to me and co-signed everything I said or did. I could have farted into a microphone on air during Revolution and Kevin would have called it a masterpiece because I have tits, ass, and talent that he so desperately needs in his group and around his micropenis.
Madison uses her index finger and thumb to estimate the "size" of Kevin’s nether region.
MADISON CARTER
I don’t fuck with guys like Kevin Mears because I like grown men not spoiled, entitled children. I don’t give Kevin respect as a wrestler because his entire aura and vibe just screams “bitch ass motherfucker” as loud as it possibly can. Kevin Mears isn’t a person made to lead a company. Kevin Mears as World Champion doesn’t lead from the front or by example because the real Kevin Mears is a frontrunner. He only has things to say and time to strut around tooting his own horn when things are overwhelmingly in his favor. That isn’t what makes a true World Champion. So, I’m not jealous of him nor am I jealous of Serenity. I don’t want to be where they are if it means that is the kind of person that I have to become. I’d much rather be authentically me and hold this FTW Championship proudly than become a pussified simp like Kevin Mears. Serenity, Summer, Talia, Winters, and that cunt Rory can all worship the ground that his tiny little feet walk on. Women like me don’t bow to boys like Kevin Mears, we bend them over and peg them.
Madison relaxes back into her seat and seems satisfied with getting all of that off of her chest.
LUIS MONTES
With all that being said, as of this moment, you’re scheduled to face both Serenity Holmes and Kevin Mears in the main event of Revolution 2. You’ve stated that you feel like this match is punishment of some sort from management and that it’s really just a three-on-one handicap match disguised as a fair fight.
MADISON CARTER
Show me where I am wrong. Have you seen my partner for this match lately, Luis?
Montes thinks for a moment and then shakes his head.
MADISON CARTER
Exactly my point. I’m teamed with someone who supposedly has an issue with Serenity and claims she was an actual part of the main event of Revolution 1. But where is she at? Have you seen her? If you look around on social media all you’ll find of her is that she’s last seen siding with Serenity on things I've said about her and talk about shit going on in some other company. You would think that if your first match is against your so-called nemesis, in a new company, in the main event, you’d have something more to say other than “Madison, stay on the ring apron and let me handle this.” My “partner” has had time to field phone calls from Kevin Mears about this match, but has she called me? Has she reached out to me? Has she messaged me, asked to meet up and train together, or anything at all? Of course, she hasn’t. But if Kevin Mears snapped his fingers and said "Come sit on my face" she'd come running like they were giving out free money in the streets. It even came out not long ago that she wants to fuck Mears. Yet, I'm supposed to trust in the fact that he only called her because they are friends? Was I born yesterday? She wants to ride the way of his little field pea and he calls her up and is friendly with her after she beat the shit out of his girlfriend? What kind of man is that?! What kind of reasonable human being comes to another company and beefs with another woman over Kevin Mears?!?! I'd rather drag my clit back and forth across a piece of sandpaper, but Amber is all about it. That is the person I have to put my trust in and rely on at Revolution 2.
LUIS MONTES
Kevin Mears claims that there is no setup going into this match. He says there are no plans for Amber Mansley to become an Ace or to side with The Aces during this match.
MADISON CARTER
Isn’t that the exact same thing that Serenity said about Summer Page, but look at her now. A full-fledged member of the Aces. Didn’t Mears also claim that there were no intentions of that Rory cunt becoming an Ace also? Supposedly, even though he personally trains her, they never once talked about his group or her joining. Yet, even now this bitch is making plans to come to Reno and see Revolution 2 in person just for Kevin and Serenity. Like, how dumb do they think people are? Why are you coming all the way out to Reno now of all times when you can sit back and watch Revolution from the comfort of your own fucking home? Either way, I hope, I pray that she is stupid enough to stick her nose in my business. I can't wait to knock that cunt's teeth down her goddamn throat. But I'm supposed to believe that the obvious truth isn't the truth.
Madison begins to clap her hands together after every single word she says.
MADISON CARTER
THIS. IS. THE. EXACT. DUMB. SHIT. THAT. I’VE. BEEN. TALKING. ABOUT! IF. YOU’RE. GOING. TO. SCREW. ME. OVER. IN. THE. MAIN. EVENT. AND. BEAT. MY. ASS. THEN. AT. LEAST. SAY. THAT. SHIT. WITH. YOUR. MOTHERFUCKING. CHEST! PUT. SOME. FUCKING. BASS. IN. YOUR. VOICES. YOU. FUCKING. TRANSITIONAL. CHAMPIONS!
Luis adjusts himself in his seat and leans forward.
LUIS MONTES
I have one more question for you today, Madison. With everything you’ve said and that you think is going to happen in the main event. What are you going to do to counteract all of it?
Madison adjusts the FTW Championship belt on her shoulder and grins.
MADISON CARTER
What makes you think that I need to counteract it?
LUIS MONTES
What?
MADISON CARTER
The Aces think they have to lie or use all kinds of fucking misdirection heading into this match. Why is that? Is it because they think if I know what I already know, that means I’m going to come down to the ring with every single member of The Kingdom by my side? I’m not going to do that at all. The only person coming to the ring with me on Revolution 2 will be Jezebel and that’s only because she refuses to take no for an answer. This isn’t some fucking cerebral game of Chess. It’s professional wrestling and if The Aces want to jump me, then I’m going to let them try and jump me.
Madison says in a matter-of-fact tone.
MADISON CARTER
I don’t need to walk into a main event match with other people holding my hand. I don’t care if it is against the Silver State and World Champions. I’m going to go out there and I’m going to fight to the best of my ability. I’m going to give the effort that barely any other person on this roster can give. I’m going to face this uphill battle head-on. So, if I get my ass kicked, then I get my ass kicked. Regardless, I’m not going to go and hide afterward. I’m not going to go radio silent because things didn’t go my way in one night. I’m going to pick myself up, I’m going to dust myself off, and I’m going to roll into the very next show and wrestle Summer Page. I’m going to give the same exceptional effort to that match that I give to every single match and I’m going to keep talking and speaking the truth the entire time. Winning one fight doesn't win you a war. Me losing in a handicapped match to The Aces doesn't mean I'm not going to keep coming after Serenity and that Silver State Championship.
Madison sits up straight and holds her head high.
MADISON CARTER
I’m not some weak little frontrunner who only pretends to be worthy of being at the top. I am a fighter, I am a warrior, I am the FTW Champion, and I’m a goddamn Princess. I’m a proud member of The Kingdom. I’m not someone’s groupie or follower. I didn’t fall in line with Kevin Mears or the Aces because I refuse to take orders from a man whose pussy gets wetter than mine. So, that’s what The Aces have to look forward to at Revolution 2. I will show up and give them their chance to get the drop on me. I will show up and pretend like I don't see their fucked up plan coming a mile away, but that doesn't mean that I have to play along. They get one chance to take me out, and they better put me down for good, because if they don't? I'm going to make them all regret it. And God help them if I somehow manage to get my shot at the Silver State Championship or possibly a shot at the UPRISING World Championship belt. If that were to happen? There would be two more people flying out of the door looking for sponsorship from the Kleenex company before they find a new kiddie pool to swim in. Kevin Mears can't even have a backbone on social media and come at me directly. He doesn't even go out of his way to defend his own partner and girlfriend when she's getting roasted on social media. No way he'll be able to stand tall and defend his belt against me without pissing his man panties. The Kingdom has swept a long list of garbage away from this company, if Mears, Serenity, and The Aces want to be the next ones to go? I'll be more than happy to make that a reality.
LUIS MONTES
Thank you for your time here today, Madison, and good luck to you in the main event of Revolution 2 on Wednesday night.
MADISON CARTER
Thank you, Luis. It’s been a pleasure.
LUIS MONTES
This interview will air in three different parts on Monday night and I want to remind everyone to tune into The Splat Network to watch Revolution 2 live on Wednesday night. Until then, I am Luis Montes and I’ll see you guys in the Silver State Ballroom.
Luis rises out of his seat and then walks over to wear Madison is sitting. He helps her up to her feet and then shakes her hand as the scene fades to black.
