LRW Wrestling Presents...Hayden Beaulieu

     Hayden Beaulieu, a budding thespian and recent graduate of Plainfield High School (serving perhaps the most rural environment in Connecticut) received a rather rude welcome to LRW Wrestling.
     LRW Wrestling stalwart Sean Evans (now known as "The Sandman" due to the fact that he has been taught the Sleeper Hold by none other than Nathaniel Noel) announced the formation of a new tag team known as The Velvet Mafia (Freddie passed on the opportunity to discuss the connotations of that phrase) and introduced his partner, Hayden Beaulieu -- who was clearly ill at ease from the moment he stepped in front of the camera.

     As Freddie became obsessive/possessive at the sight of the photogenic young man clad in his blue velvet ring jacket, Hayden's sense of traditional masculinity was threatened. Off camera, Freddie tried to explain, "Putting people at ease has never been my forte."

     Beaulieu (which literally means "beautiful place" in French) constantly veered between condescension and trepidation when interacting with Freddie, making conflict inevitable.

   
     When Freddie displayed a compulsion to rhapsodize over Hayden's ring attire, the thin-skinned youth defensively mocked Freddie's sartorial splendor by calling him, "The Yellow Man."

     Freddie felt disrespected by the remark, but blamed Hayden's insolence on astrological influences (Hayden is a Libra, "the only sign symbolized by an inanimate object," while Freddie is a highly emotional Cancer) in an attempt to salvage the interview.

      During the shoot, Hayden sometimes seemed shyly amused by Freddie's effusive flattery, but there was a fine line between Hayden's amusement and scorn.

     Hayden's introductory interview took a turn for the worse when Freddie placed his hand on Hayden's shoulder to calm the sheltered young man's anxieties. Hayden immediately shook off Freddie's hand while exclaiming, "I'm not about that!"

  
     At that point, a change came over Freddie and a seamy side to his nature appeared. Freddie vetoed Sean's idea of a tag team partnership, appearing jealous of the apparent "bromance" between the Velvet Mafia members. Instead, Freddie proposed a singles match pitting the two friends against each other, spitefully stipulating it to be a "no disqualification, no submission" match in which Freddie himself would serve as referee.

     In his unhinged state, Freddie went so far as to physically threaten Hayden, who reacted by asserting, "I'm not going to fight you!" When Freddie accused Hayden of being intimidated, Hayden instinctively responded, "I'm not afraid of you. You're just too creepy and bizarre!"

     Ranting that no one had ever had the audacity to call him "creepy and bizarre," Freddie began to channel New Orleans culture: the WhoDat nation, the voodoo rituals, and life in the Ninth Ward on the other side of Desire. Freddie has vowed to create a brutal, sadistic video to punish the object of his obsession.

Now it's dark.
