La Guerra de Sangre Presents: Lucha POWER
Episode 5
“Hexagon Jr.”
Orig. Air Date: July 12th 2019
“Please report to the office of Senor Paco Pequeno at once.”
Hexagon Jr wasn’t worried. He was never worried. As one of the youngest world champions in recent lucha memory, Hexagon was used to pressure. He was able to deal with promoters of all types, including the ones that had a screw loose. So, when he found the letter in his locker ahead of a training session, Hexagon didn’t immediately think anything of it. But then again, I’ve never had a gun pointed at my head by a promoter either so…
Hexagon made his way to the back of the locker room towards a large wooden door with a small plaque on it that read “Office.” He gave a firm knock.
“Hola. Senor? Its Hexagon.”
“Si. Adelante.”
Hexagon entered the office to see Paco Pequeno seated behind a desk, with Dungeon Dominguez standing- arms folded- right next to him. It never ceased to amaze Hexagon how truly small Paco was.
“Por favor. Please. Close the door.”
Hexagon gave a curious look but did as he was told. If he was going to do something, it would probably be best to not have any witnesses. “Senor, you wanted to see me?”
“Si si. Sit. We need to talk.” Hexagon’s gaze fell to Paco’s towering associate, who met Hexagon’s eyes and locked in. For a moment it seemed like the two might brawl right there.
“Se calme. Ahora. I understand there is history Senor but that will have to wait. I have pressing business we must discuss.”
“Business? The point a gun at your head kind of business?”
“Por favor, you cannot still be upset about that. Besides, I do not believe that type of…correction… will be needed. We have a show in a couple of weeks and I need someone to announce the card to the rest of the roster. With El Macho no longer employed, I would like that to be you.”
Hexagon gave a confused look. “Me? Por que?”
“There are few people on this roster that are trustworthy enough to communicate to the rest of the roster, most are either putos or still loyal to Macho. I believe you to be neither of those.”
“Why don’t you just do it yourself. Or get El Burro over here to do it for you.” Dungeon had not lifted his eyes from Hexagon, and now he unfolded his arms, hands clenched and ready. Hexagon was standing now as well, and while neither man had made a move towards the other, both seemed ready if the other made the first move.
“Simply put Senor, because it would be unwise for me to approach the locker room at this time given recent developments, and Dungeon does not communicate with words. No, I think our best course of action is having you deliver the message. And I think you will accept my terms for doing so. Please sit.”
“Terms?”
“Of course. There are always terms. Senor Bonilla never operates without terms. Now, you have just recently lost an opportunity at La Mascara de Choque. But as a former Lucha POWER champion, it seems only appropriate that you get an opportunity at a rematch.”
“Opportunity? What kind of opportunity?”
“Excellente. I knew you would accept.” A rare smile crossed Paco’s face, and Hexagon knew he was hooked. Hex loved El Macho, even staying in Mexico despite dreams of catching on in the states because the old man asked him to stick around while his promotion got off the ground. But he also had bigger plans. Hexagon dreamed of being the biggest lucha star in the world. And he couldn’t do that by getting buried by a Mexican drug lord in a middle of nowhere promotion. He was stuck in this situation, and getting fired or quitting seemed to carry a bit of risk to one’s health. He might as well do what needed to be done to get his title back. Besides, how bad could it be to just relay the fucking card?
“A future title opportunity, given you can win your next match.”
“Fine….ok. What’s the card?”
“Ahh, Si! Si, the card for Lucha POWER Especial: Quatro.” Paco was now beaming. What an odd little man. “Lucha La Barba vs Loco Dixon. We have not seen a singles match from either in quite some time, I am curious who is willing to step up- the man with the quick pins or the man with the weapons. You senor, you will face a new comer. Freshly signed Diego Guerrero- he is a promising young lucha and should be a good test for a potential championship challenger. And in el evento principal? ZDM vs Doctor Dorado and Los Terribles- Pantero Negro Jr and Lobo Muerte. I trust Lobo Muerte made it back home ok?”
Barely. Rumor has it he spent a week in the hospital.
“Si.”
“Excellente. Both Cicatrices and Lobo are owed a match for Mascara de Choque, but that should not impact this show. In fact I expect this show will be even better than the last one!”
“Si. Adios Senor. I will let the boys know.”
“Senor Hexagon. One more thing por favor.” There was an ominous tone to Paco’s voice.
“I gave El Macho a similar opportunity when I initially took this position. He learned the hard way that my generosity comes at a cost. I suspect you will not want to know what happens if you lose your match. Vayase de aqui. I have other matters to attend.”
Hexagon left the room, closing the door behind him. Dread set in after a moment. What have I signed myself up for?
