Chapter 143: Max Fury vs Jay D

Until the day of the show, Arnold had been busy getting himself prepared for the greatest match of his career. Training, practicing, and learning from top matches as well as observing Jay D's past matches.

It had all been a lot of stress, but he knew that it was worth it. After all, he had to put much effort into winning the match, or else he would hate himself. Arnold never wanted to be defeated, at least, not in this early stage.

...

When it was nighttime, the show began. Being undoubtedly the toughest l match in the show today, Max Fury versus Jay D was fixed as the main event. Surprisingly, the Ipswich Town stadium became full even before dark despite the huge capacity it had, but it was certain that Max Fury's sudden popularity had resulted in this.

Everyone wanted to see the incredible Max Fury face one of the strongest professional wrestlers ever, and in enthusiasm, they wanted to see him win. It was just like a demand, as almost all his fans in England were present.

The fact that there were countless win-demanding posts on the internet made it clear. Everyone wanted him to defeat Jay D, except for Jay's fans, who were on their side of support.

Whatever that was their wants, it was visibly clear that Max Fury fans took over sixty-five percent to the arena, with loud shouts and cheers echoing around. If one listened, the praises of The Legacy could be heard amid the complicated noises.

Before the show even began, there was an uproar that only added to the heat of what the upcoming match would bring.

...

It took like an hour and thirty minutes before it was time for the main event... By that time, Max Fury was already ready to go.

In his room, he got dressed in his red long leather jacket and red shorts. This time, he had decided to add one accessory to his costume, and it was red glassless eyeglasses. Max Fury had met a professional fashion expert to get it all planned, and he believed it was cool.

He decided to act like a simple, cool guy, just like he was truly, and his attire could define it more.

Just when he was set to leave the room and match to the arena, his phone beeped. With a single glance, he noticed who it was.

"Mark... Hmmm..."

He quickly picked up the call, not wanting to cause an issue when it was his time to show up in the ring.

"Hey! Max!" Mark shouted excitedly at the other hand of the phone.

"Hey," Arnold replied with a smile.

"Ahh, you have not been active on the WhatsApp group chat, what's up?" Mark asked.

Arnold shook his head and rubbed his brows before replying...

"Uhm, I have just been too busy with things on here. I promise to drop by when I have time," he said.

"There is no problem with that, bro. You just gotta do me a favor."

"What favor?" Arnold asked.

"Defeat Jay D... You know, he cost me my five dollars last time against Andrew Jack, so you have to avenge me," Mark said with a slight laugh.

Arnold also finds this funny and laughs as well... But it was clearly a jokey reason. Mark just wanted Arnold to defeat Jay D and that's all. He knew that Jay D wasn't a simple opponent, and that was certain.

"Sure, I will give my all... For your five dollars," Arnold spoke and laughed, with Mark laughing back as well.

Then, after their short conversation, they ended the call, and Arnold walked straight to the arena after several inhales and exhales.

It was time.

"Who were you calling?" A female voice questioned Mark from the side, drawing his attention.

That voice belonged to Lila Ross.

Lila and Mark were at the gym house at this time in Capside Centre, training relentlessly just like they always did. Since Arnold left, they haven't dared to reduce the effort to train and practice, trying to become better in their skills and physical fitness.

"It was Max... He sent his regards," Mark said as he ran on a treadmill.

Lila was at the corner lifting a 35 kg weight...

"Max? He answered the call. I thought he forgot about us already," Lila smirked and said.

"No way. He would never do that. He is just chanced with work and that's all," Mark tried to explain from his belief, blinking.

"Well, he should spare even a minute to visit the group chat every day. That would be remarkable," Lila said.

"Yeah, he promised to. Let's just hope he defeats Jay D tonight. I mean the match would be ongoing in a few minutes," Mark informed.

Lila suddenly dropped the weight and turned to him with widened eyes.

"Few minutes? And we are still here?! Common let's go watch!" Lila shouted.

However, Mark only stared casually and continued his training.

"You can go ahead, I will join you soon," Mark said.

Without even wasting a second, Lila left the gym and ran into Mark's room. She prefers to stay over and watch movies on his TV often and also watches wrestling matches as well...

Having the keys to his door, everything was settled.

Mark only kept running on treadmills, having a low urge to leave.

"I know he would win... There is no need to go watch."

Then he heaved a sigh and added.

"I have to defeat Justin Reed in the Grindhouse Omega Championship Title Match next week."

Arnold walked into the arena with his theme music sounding across the building. There were loud thunderous cheers that almost made the building erupt upon his appearance, but he was calm and could just give his display.

"And his opponent, from San Diego California, weighing in 224 pounds, The Legacy, MAX FURY!!!"

The shouts only worsen.

Arnold walked into the ring majestically and over to one of the ring corners. There, they stared at Jay D, who appeared to be calm and excited to fight him. Jay D was jumping on a spot as if he had no uncertainty about this match... Unlike Max Fury.

He was calm and collected as if he had seen his victory with his own eyes.

By the referee's order, the bell sounded, and the match officially began.

All eyes are on the ring.
