Devonta Freeman
I don't know man.
I'm kind of sad, them towers be home to me.
Julio Jones
Sad? What is there to be sad about?
It's a housing project, if you ask me,
they should've blown them shits up a couple of year ago,
Devonta Freeman
Man, it ain't all been bad.
Palega used to be right here.
I won all kinds of pickup games in that gym.
Even stole a couple of cellphones too.
Oh, who you fooling?
This dude kept getting beat by the same Chinese kids every week.
Them Chinese dudes ain't have no kind of handles,
but this mother fucker was getting beat by the same fucking move!
No defense having ass.
Don't matter what the offense do, he just keep doing the same.
Boy does not learn.
Gavin Newsom
In a few moments, the Tenderloin Towers behind me,
which sadly came to represent some of the cities most entrenched problems
relating to drug trade here in our city, will be torn down.
Julio Jones
You crying over a basketball court and some towers.
Devonta Freeman
Nah, man.
I'm talking about people.
Memories and shit.
Gavin Newsom
In it's place, we will build low to moderate housing.
*Crowd Cheers*
Julio Jones
People? Man that ain't the same.
It's steel and concrete.
That's all it is man. You can keep that sentimental bullshit over there.
We just damn near out of work, is all.
Devonta Freeman
What you mean?
Julio Jones
Look. These towers was the best territory in the city.
Dope fiends from all across the city came to these towers for a fix.
Now these downtown suit wearing mother fuckers' snatched the best territory from us.
Julio Jones
If you want to be mad about something...
be mad about that.
Gavin Newsom
Mr. Willie Brown, you will please do the honors.
10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4...
Crowd
3... 2.... 1!
The Towers come crumbling down as the city watches.
From a distance, Justinmonger has been canvasing the area.
Justinmonger
Barksdale just lost the best territory in the city...
Now these mother fuckers got to find somewhere else to go.
Let's find out where.

*Shane McMahon's Music Hits*
The Hiz
Cut my music!
*Crowd Boos*
The Hiz
No! Chicago, you shut the hell up.
I'm sick of this crap.
We already know how this story goes.
Another new season in the West Coast Cousins.
Whoop-di-doo!
Another season where The Hiz is not written into the storylines.
And another season where the most Must See Attraction in the WCC is underutilized.
Shane, you must have forgotten already.
When this roster was depleted, I returned for last season's FantasyMania.
And not only did I return, I played strong in last season's playoffs!
0.40 points away from headlining FantasyMania!
But no. All glory goes to the Champion.
And where is this Champion?
Where is The Baugh?
Another part time WCC Superstar hogging up all the shine.
Maybe he's lifting weights.
Maybe he's filming another crappy storyline about drugs.
Who knows!
The only thing that I know, is that The Baugh isn't here tonight.
*The Baugh's Music Hits*
Michael Cole
Wait a minute!
Not so fast! Can it be?
Is he here?!
The Baugh
So that brings The Baugh to you.
You come out here in front of the millions and millions of The Baugh's fans.
And you run The Baugh down.
You run your mouth and talk about how you deserve a title shot.
Well The Baugh says this, you showed up to FantasyMania last season.
You won a game and you had a hell of a season.
But let The Baugh tell you something,
it takes a lot more than one season to pay your dues.
The Baugh has been doing this for 10+ years.
If you want an opportunity, you've got to get it.
You grab that brass ring and you whoop somebody's ass with it.
Nothing in this life is given to you.
You have to take it.
The Baugh
So The Baugh says this.
You want a shot at this?
You want a Championship opportunity.
You prove to The Baugh that you belong in this league.
Prove to the people that last season wasn't a fluke.
And you go back to FantasyMania and bring it.
Until then, back of the line, bitch!
*Crowd Cheers*
Michael Cole
Oh my!
And what a way to kick off Wednesday Night Preview!
It's none other than the owner of West Coast Cousins!
Shane McMahon!
The crowd cheers as McMahon makes his way towards the ring.
Shane McMahon
First and foremost, I want to thank everyone for being here tonight.
It is a special night in the West Coast Cousins.
It is a special night because we are LIVE here in Chicago, Illinois!
*Crowd Cheers*

Shane McMahon
It is Week 2 in the West Coast Cousins.
It is Week 2 in the West Coast Cousins.
And last season marked the return of the West Coast Cousins Wrestling Division.
It's been a long time coming, but after months of negotiations,
I was able to regain ownership of the WCC and take it back from Donald Trump.

But not only is the West Coast Cousins back....
But I have also cleared all former WCC superstars from any prosecution from the President!

That's right! They're all coming back!
*Crowd Cheers*
Crowd
CM PUP! CM PUP!
CM PUP!
Shane McMahon
... Well, maybe not all of them.
*Crowd Boos*
Shane McMahon
No, no. Hear me out.
Because I promise that
WCC Season 11 will be bigger and badder than ever before.
My late father, Vince McMahon, always believed in raising the stakes.
And in Season 11, we will truly be raising the stakes.
Because beginning this season, all Fantasy Managers will put it all on the line!
$20 entry to play in this season's Fantasy Football season!
With the winner not only becoming WCC League Champion,
but walking away with grand total of $144 dollars!

So with that said.
I have one last thing to say.
I have a message for you, Mr. President.
Mr. President... I want you to know --
The Hiz interrupts Shane McMahon.I have one last thing to say.
I have a message for you, Mr. President.
Mr. President... I want you to know --
Cut my music!
*Crowd Boos*
No! Chicago, you shut the hell up.

Whoop-di-doo!
Another season where The Hiz is not written into the storylines.
And another season where the most Must See Attraction in the WCC is underutilized.
The Hiz
I am being discriminated against.
And that is an absolute travesty!
Because even after my best season to date,
you want to write me off as an afterthought.
No, no, no.
I put my $20 in and I am all in.
I won my first match up of the season last night.
I am already off to a great start, 1-0.
But you want to keep writing me off...
Now I'm standing here to tell you that The Hiz's Life Matters.
Shane McMahon
Whoa, whoa, whoa, Hiz.
The Hiz
No, you shut your mouth, McMahon.
It is my time to talk and your time to listen.
You talk about all these former Superstars coming back to the WCC.Shane, you must have forgotten already.
When this roster was depleted, I returned for last season's FantasyMania.
And not only did I return, I played strong in last season's playoffs!
0.40 points away from headlining FantasyMania!

Michael Cole
Wait a minute!
Not so fast! Can it be?
Is he here?!
The King
Ahh!!! He's is!
The Baugh
Finally, The Baugh has come back to Chicago!
Make no mistake about it.
The Baugh is here live on Wednesday Night Preview in the flesh.
Because The Baugh is the People's Champion.
The Baugh is here for the people.
The Baugh is an active champion and I'm here to do what I do best.
And that's kick some ass and defense this WCC Championship!
*Crowd Cheers*
Ahh!!! He's is!
The Baugh

*Crowd Cheers*
The Hiz
Really? Really?
Is this how it's going to be?
The Baugh is too afraid to take me on, so instead,
he says I'm not ready.
What do I have to do to prove myself?
I was *this* close to main eventing FantasyMania.
And since Vic Moxley couldn't get it done.
I should be next in line!
*Kevin Owen's Music Hits*
Michael Cole
Wait a minute. What is this?
It's the newest member of the West Coast Cousins, Kevin Owens!
The King
The Baugh looks just as shocked as we are to see Kevin out here.
Kevin Owens
Whoa, whoa!
Since we're just spit balling here.
I thought I'd take this opportunity to come out here and introduce myself.
I am Kevin Owens and I am the newest cousin to join the WCC.
No, I'm not a Luu.
And thank God I'm not.
Because the Luu's absolutely suck!
Why do you think that one lady left the Luu clan and took on another dude's name?
*Crowd Boos*
Kevin Owens
So I think it's about time, we injected some new blood into this WCC Storyline.
We're tired of seeing the same old characters.
And to be quite frank with all of you,
I don't think I'm speaking out of line when I say Stealthy couldn't get it done.
And I am done Waiting!
*Crowd Cheers*
Kevin Owens
So what I want, is a shot at the WCC Champion.
The Hiz has had his turn.
It's my turn now.
I have watched wrestling since I was kid.
I used to have a poster of Batista on my wall.
And I deserve this opportunity more than The Hiz.
Shane McMahon
Well there you have it!
I think we have ourselves a Championship match.
Shane McMahon
This Sunday, the WCC Champion faces off against Kevin Owens!
But don't worry, Hiz.
I haven't forgotten about you.
You want that opportunity to prove that last season wasn't a fluke?
You'll get your opportunity...
when you face this man...
Michael Cole
Oh my!
Things are heating up on Wednesday Night Preview!
Justin Styles is live in Chicago!
Michael Cole
Folks, you don't want to miss this Sunday's slate of matchups.
The Baugh vs. Kevin Owens for the WCC Championship.

Prop Vinny
Well there you have it.
Deal has been vetoed.
We keep Carson Wentz and turn down The Greek's offer.
Prop Vinny
So apparently, The Greek is back in town.
And he wants to do business.
As you all know, we've been selling Blue Magic all offseason.
And the supply has been coming from none other than The Greek's protege, Carson Wentz.
The Greek is proposing that he returns as the primary source of distribution in San Francisco.
But on one condition, he wants Carson Wentz out.
James White
If we got Carson Wentz, why do we need The Greek?
The Greek disappeared on us last season after shit got hot.
How do we know he won't do the same this time?
Kelvo Stanfield
If we got the leverage, The Greek should take a smaller cut.
If he's willing to drop the price on the package, then we let The Greek back in.
I could give a fuck about Carson Wentz.
We should leverage the two against one another.
This is business.
Prop Vinny
Personally, I am keen on loyalty.
But I'll let it up for the group to decide.
Kevlo Stanfield proposes that we cut Carson Wentz from the deal and bring in The Greek.
Does anyone want to vote against this deal?
Raise your hands to veto Kevlo's proposal.
Well there you have it.
Deal has been vetoed.
We keep Carson Wentz and turn down The Greek's offer.
After the meeting, Kevlo Stanfield voices his displeasure with the decision.
Kevlo Stanfield
I been to five meetings now, and every time,
you mother fuckers veto everything.
Y'all actually want to get shit done, y'all gotta start taking more chances.
We save more money with them greek mother fuckers.
Prop Vinny
This is how a democracy works, Kevlo.
We share our thoughts, decide as a group.
Work together. That's how we move forward.
Trust me on this, this is the right decision.
And until something changes, we keep it that way.
We cut to Det. Joyce, who has been monitoring Prop Vinny's movements.
At 850 Bryant, San Francisco Hall of Justice, Chris Carson has arrived.
Victor Oumar
You my ride?
Chris Carson
I'm your lord and mother fucker savior, is what I am.
I know. I'm all that.
Got Warren Sapp to rescind his testimony.
Said he made the whole thing up.
Victor Oumar
Told you I ain't do nothin'.
So you gonna take me to Sapp or what?
Chris Carson
Mother fucker.
I just put my neck out on the line for your ass.
Bailed you out of a murder wrap.
Now you're telling me, you're gonna go back out there and what?
Get revenge?
Chris Carson
No, no, no. Mother fucker.
Don't make me regret getting you out of here.
No, it's mother fuckers like you that a ruining our city.
So quick to settle things with a weapon.
In my day, we handled things like men.
Hand to hand combat.
But now, you cowards built differently huh?
Chris Carson
Hell no.
I did you this favor.
You owe it to me. I want your word.
No more bodies, Oumar.
No more.
Victor Oumar
Aight, man. Alright.
No more bodies.

Back in the SCGD unit,
Det. Tai refuses to join the rest of the team in the Kevlo Stanfield case.
He goes back to the archive and finds last season's files in the Barksdale case.
Det. Tai dumps the entire box onto his desk and begins looking through the file.
Det. Howard
What the hell are you doing?
What is that?
Det. Tai
You don't look at what you did before...
you do the same shit all over.
Det. Tai finds a photo of D'justin Barkdale.
He flips through more files and finds a sketch of Rocksonberg.
Waitress
More Covfefe, Mr. Lambert?
Rocksonberg
Yes... thank you.
Today is my birthday.
Waitress
Oh, happy birthday.
You know, birthdays eat free at Denny's.
Just need to see your ID.
Rocksonberg
That's alright.
I'm good.
Waitress
Really?
It's a free meal.
Free is always good.
I'd always take something for free.
Even if I was rich, I can't pass up free.
Rocksonberg
Sure... if you insist.
Rocksonberg goes back to his car and pops open the trunk.
He peeks inside, staring at what's sitting in the back of his car.
