Beyond The League: A New Journey
Chapter VII
Two Worlds Of Bad Blood

As the Unforgiven pay per view draws closer, Drake Williams and John Bradshaw Layfield are engaged in a bitter feud which revolved their radically different lifestyles. JBL is a self made millionaire who care only about how much money he can make. Drake Williams grew up as a working class grunt with unwavering drive and tenacity. This is another example of two different worlds. Two weeks before the event, Williams and Bradshaw met in the ring for the official contract signing with Mr. McMahon mediating the proceedings. The two opponents sat down at the table looking eye to eye.

JBL signed the contract first and then said, "Drake Williams, you have no dignity or class whatsoever. You lack respect for the championship and for me." Furthermore, the only reason you've been champion for so long is because you have been ducking me."

"I knew it," Drake said. "All those shots to your skull have screwed up your logic sense."

JBL answers back, "Joke all you want but you know I'm right. Mark my words Drake; I will right the wrongs done to this business when I beat you at Unforgiven, thus reclaiming my WWE Championship and proving once and for all that I am…

"A WRESTLING GOD," Drake yelled like an idiot. "We've heard that same crap before. You're a "Wrestling God" and a "True American Hero." It's time to find some new material."

Drake took the contract and signed on the dotted line. "As far as the whole respect thing goes," Drake stated, "I do have respect for your accomplishments, JBL. But not for your methods."

"What the hell's that supposed mean?" asked JBL angrily. "Let me tell you something boy; in this business, I do whatever it takes to achieve success. While you were learning to apply a wristlock, I was here winning championships and etching my name in wresting history."

JBL stood up from his seat as did Drake Williams. "I have sweat buckets and bled gallons while you were losing your virginity in high school. I am a sure-to-be Hall of Famer and it pisses me off that some punk-ass kid like you is the future of the WWE."

"You can say what you want to about me," Drake said. "But as you said, I am the future of the business and proud of it. I'm proud of the fact that I'm the WWE Champion and that I've fought like hell to stay champion. To put it bluntly, I'm proud of who I am."

"Well, your pride will come back to haunt you at Unforgiven," said JBL. "I will guarantee that I'll take out the game for good and send you running home to your mama like the little bitch she made you out to be."

John Bradshaw Layfield was half-expecting Drake to go ballistic but the champion kept his cool; until JBL spit in his face. While it did not seem apparent to the audience, this classless act by Bradshaw struck a nerve with Drake. He turned around as if nothing happened, wipes the spit from his face and gently lays his title belt on the floor.

"That's right, Drake," JBL screamed. "You tuck your tail between your legs and walk away just like your dead daddy, you punk-ass son of a bitch."

JBL would regret his words as Drake Williams came flying at him in a rage. The champion laid into Bradshaw with every hard piston-like right hand he could muster until security came in to pull him off. JBL managed to recover and come back with his own shots but Williams got loose and tackled him back down. Eventually, JBL scurries out of the ring with half of the security guys while the other holds Drake back. The true coward that he is, JBL gets out of dodge but it would not be the last he would encounter the infuriated Drake Williams.

JBL heads for his limo in a hurry, hoping he had seen the last of Drake Williams for the night. Wrong. As soon as JBL is inside, Drake Williams arrives on the scene with a baseball bat and the proverbial mask of rage.

"How 'bout you take me out of the game, big man?" Drake screams.

Drake sure as hell will not wait for an answer and swung his bat at the limo. He left several dents on the hood and left side and broke a headlight. After that, he tore off the longhorns and threw them to the ground. He then shatters the windows before the limo pulls out of the arena. Drake throws the bat right through the rear window as the car speeds away.

Drake, still fuming, screams, "Limousine riding piece of shit."

One week later and six days before Unforgiven, Drake Williams is wrestling a match against Charlie Haas. The champion nails a heavy spine buster on Haas before going to the top turnbuckle. Drake stands upright on top before coming off with what would be his secondary finishing move; a senton bomb which he called the Arc Angel. Before he could make the cover, John Bradshaw Layfield came out on stage with several police officers.

"There he is, officers," he said. "That is the man who damaged my limousine. I want him arrested. He is a common piece of trash."

Drake can not believe this and goes after Bradshaw again but the officers stop him. Soon enough Drake is handcuffed and the officers take him away. Bradshaw is not done with Drake as they start jaw jacking at each other.

"Don't worry too much, Williams," said JBL. "I've made sure you'd be out jail in twelve hours, so I can take the title and beat you like the bitch you are."

The defiant champion spits in Bradshaw's face much he did the previous week. JBL retaliates with a kick to the crouch and Drake goes down in a heap. JBL continues to mock the champion, smacking him with his cowboy hat.

"Get used to the humiliation," JBL said. "It'll be a lot worse at Unforgiven when you bow down at the feet of a Wrestling God and a True American Hero."

JBL starts gloating as Drake is being carried off to jail. Drake is later thrown into a squad car just outside the arena when JBL arrives and again mocks him. Drake tries to respond back but Bradshaw slams the door his face and the car pulls away. If the WWE Champion was not pissed off before then he is now. In fact he is without a doubt way beyond pissed off. John Bradshaw Layfield, as arrogant as he is, has no idea what he has done.

Drake Williams is released from jail some twelve hours later on Tuesday morning. With WWE Unforgiven now just five days, Drake Williams has one thing in mind as it regards to JBL; revenge.
