Whiskey Dex appeared during this past Saturday's episode of Vertigo. On the show, the team of Whiskey Ayano and Dexter Jacobs had no problems with venting their frustrations with the #sparklebuddies, the opinions of some fans and an interesting take on FGA management. The following are Whiskey Dex' uncensored thoughts:
From Vertigo: 10.03.15
The camera cuts backstage to the reigning and defending FGA World Tag Team Champions, Dexter Jacobs and “Fireball” Whiskey Ayano...better known in these circles as Whiskey Dex. The foul mood between the champions is fairly clearly palpable. Dexter is pacing the floor, his championship belt slung over his shoulder, as Whiskey is seated on an equipment box in familiar fashion with her belt laid across her lap...Her lack of imbibing a very clear and telling detail in the seriousness of the matters at hand. Dexter paces for a few long moments, pausing to give his partner a look, shaking his head in annoyance and disgust before his eyes focus on the camera.
Dexter Jacobs: Pissed off.
Dexter sneers, as Whiskey shakes her head with a low sigh.
Dexter Jacobs: S’ only way ‘at accurately describes how we’re feelin’ right now, comin’ off the heels of Above ‘n Beyond IV. Pissed off, that after everythin’ we said...we didn’t walk out with the closure that we wanted. Pissed off, that when we left with them belts, RIGHTFULLY, no matter how much you hear the spin doctorin’....I had t’ listen back on the tape an’ hear Kris Cruise an’ Stephy Auger act like we stole somethin’. Like we didn’t deserve t’ leave with these championship belts, even after the tape tol’ the story. Then we gotta listen t’ Annie Zellor come on camera an’ try an’ pretend that what happened at the end of that match, that that...less ‘n satisfactory finish...Wasn’t anythin’ but karma, comin’ back t’ bite her in the ass. Like we ain’t have a DAMN thing t’ do with why the Sparklebuddies didn’t leave with these championships back ‘round their waists, where God ‘n everybody seems t’ believe they belong. An’ we ain’t even gonna get int’ the nonsense that’s been bein’ spouted off on Twitter since…
Dex shakes his head, and Whiskey rolls her eyes, almost in disbelief.
Dexter Jacobs: But as much as all that pisses us off. As much as this...wholesale disrespect, that folks keep denyin’ no matter how much evidence piles up...gets under our skin...What’s got us pissed off? Is that when it came down t’ it...We didn’t get the job done. Much as bein’ disrespected and discounted and treated like some kinda Goddamn lucky afterthought gets t’ me, what makes me mad as Hell...an’ Whiskey, too...is the fact that in the end of the night, nobodygot they questions answered. NOBODY.
Whiskey Ayano: Whiskey and-u Dex-kun can spend hours on end pointing out-u the incompetence of the cameramen or the announcers in-u regards to Whiskey throwing her arm over Laurel, or how they keep-u passively mentioning we’re lucky… but-u Dex has the right idea, we’re gonna move on past-u that because sadly… the FGA as an entity wants to see us fail, so what we’re going to do is deprive them-u of what they want. We’re going to remain the champs despitehow badly they want-u us gone, we’re going to be the name-u on everybody’s lips when they talk about-u the defining, dominant reign in FGA’s tag division, and we’re going to throw it-u right back into their faces, but the first step is to erase any doubt. To let-u the fans, the announcers and-u the people in head office know that Whiskey Dex isn’t just a flash in the pan-u, that we aren’t planning to leave and fade away just-u because us being here is inconvenient to your regular talent… better than your regular talent…
She takes a deep breath in.
Whiskey Ayano: ... and that means Whiskey Dex versus Sparklebuddies part three… no additional teams, no bullshit-u… and leaving no illusions that Whiskey Dex win. That-u we hit the ring and drive Laurel and-u Annie-chan into the mat with such ferocity that-u not even Stephy and-u Kris could fuck up the call when-u we get the three count.
Dex nods his head, holding his championship up.
Dexter Jacobs: There it is. We’re layin’ down the challenge this time. Us, an’ Laurel & Annie...In a match where there ain’t gonna be any questions. Where there won’t be any chance for dispute. Where there can’t be a singular shadow of a damn doubt who the better team is. Us, against the Sparklebuddies, Final Frontier….For these here straps…
He slaps the faceplate of the championship belt a handful of times, just to emphasize his point.
Dexter Jacobs: Best two out of three falls.
Dexter pauses a moment to let the idea sink in, for both the challengers and the audience watching.
Dexter Jacobs: Only way t’ resolve this. Only way for us t’ prove beyond a shadow of a doubt ain’t ANY team better in the world. Only way for us t’ prove that we are not jus’ the best tag team in the world, but t’ force FGA an’ the world at large t’ give us the respect we deserve. No third party additions. No distractions. No endings for anybody t’ dispute. The best team rises t’ the top, with undisputable proof that they are the top tag team in the world today...An’ with these here championships t’ show for it. Plain an’ simple. No excuses. No more hemmin’ an’ hawin’. More playin’ t’ the party line. Come Final Frontier, we’re walkin’ out with PROOF we are the better team….An’ the Goddamn respect we deserve.
Dexter pauses, giving a glance to Whiskey.
Dexter Jacobs: Balls in your court, ladies. Step up, answer the challenge, bring the fight, come t’ Final Frontier ready t’ show the world that the narrative that’s been in place is true. That we ain’t deservin’ of these straps. That the status quo in FGA should always. be the Sparklebuddies at the top. Come for your ‘historic’ third reign with these...An’ well make sure ya’ll leave empty-handed.
Another pause as Dex claps Whiskey on the shoulder, nodding slightly.
Dexter Jacobs: We’ll be…eagerly...awaitin’ your response, ladies. We’ll see ya’ll soon.
The duo turns to walk off screen before Whiskey takes a second to goofily mug into the camera.
Whiskey Ayano: ROADHOUSE!
Dexter Jacobs: REALLY!? Y’needed t’do it after that!?
Dexter shakes his head in annoyance, as the camera cuts away.
