Showdown VII Opening Match: Jasper Rhys vs Noah Cassidy

Once again, we find a certain young bluenette of the Welsh variety stretching himself for a coming battle, and once again he finds himself with the spotlight shone upon him at one of AFW's prestigious Pay-Per-View Events, Showdown 2022... This time however, young Jasper was participating in the opening match of the event in what had been advertised as something of a 'Farmboy vs Farmboy' match.

Apparently. It seems that AFW's Higher Ups had looked into the young Welshman's past and discovered that before young Jasper had got involved in the whole business of professional wrestling, Jasper was often found working on the Rhys family farm with his uncle and cousins, helping with chores around the farm, mostly with raising sheep and tending to the small potato patch the family kept outside the village... Those were happy times in Jasper's life, it wasn't to say as though he was unhappy with Kyoto, No he made plenty of new friends, and he was finding city life quite the adventure!... But it just didn't compare with the simplicities of life out in the countryside of his beloved Wales from the clean fresh air, the rolling green hills and the winding roads flanked by simple dry stone walls that would occasionally have the odd tractor, car, bus or even the odd old Dennis Fire Appliance screaming Blues-and-Twos on a Shout to a barn fire would roll through, carrying on with their daily routines.

Oh how he missed the peaceful simplicity of life in a tiny farming village.

"Alright..." The Welsh boy sighed deeply, eyes shut as he looked himself in the mirror. clad in his typical attire, but this time with a few minor and temporary accoutrements to go with the theme of the match. "A Perfect fit." He said as he went over his final inspection of his attire, deciding that now was the time to show the AFW Crowd how the humble British farmer was the superior to his American counterpart.

In the Arena where the crowds sat waiting in excitement for the next match-up in the rather eventful PPV, a quiet had settled down in the aftermath of the pre-show match with simple murmurs from the crowd and the occasional yell or whoop, a quiet ambience would suddenly fill the arena with the darkened Titantron overlooking the arena suddenly coming to life with the images of tranquil British countryside as a perplexed excitement filled the crowd watching the event...

And then a familiar entrance theme began to play, Familiar but somehow different...

Stand Up To The Victory (Hiroko Moriguchi Cover):

As the song built up to it's famous chorus line, the spotlights of the titantron overhead began to dance around with several convergences before the lights all coalesced around the Gorilla position which had just a second ago been unoccupied... "Bore Da." Said its occupant with a confident smile on his face, there was young Jasper Rhys, Tension's rising star, clad in his famous two-piece outfit but with several thematic additions including a dark green flat cap, tweed jacket and light-blue Wellington boots, similar to the pair he wore frequently on his days off, all topped off with a Shephard's crook clutched in his left hand and a red neckerchief around his neck.

Imagine this but with the flat cap, jacket, neckerchief and boots.:

With the positive reception he received, the Blue-haired Welsh farmboy casually began to stroll down to the ring, smiling and waving to people as he marched confidently and energetically to the tune of his entrance song before he finally reached the ring where he was to battle the American boy. There, Jasper would look around and smile at the crowd before raising his hat up and uttering out his friendly greeting to the AFW Faithful. "...Shwmae Kyoto!" Before the lad tossed his hat up into the air, then he kicked his boots off simultaneous to pulling his jacket off, leaving the boots next to the steel steps to enter the ring with his tweed jacket being draped over the corner post with Jasper safely inside the ring and smiling at the crowd, happily awaiting the entrance of his opponent.

"Bring it on, Yank. I'm not scared."

Backstage, the Yank in question was pulling up his orange speedos, wrapping his wrists and neck in athletic tape and lacing his boots up, preparing for his second ever AFW match, which was somehow also on a Pay Per View event. The farmboy had no idea how he had gotten this lucky, somebody in the office probably thought he was hot and wanted to see more of him. Regardless, he wasn't one to look a gift opportunity in the mouth.

He had to admit, he was rather excited about this bout in particular. Apparently he wasn't the only cute stud in Tension to come from a farming background, and he was curious to see how cute and tough this "Jasper" turned out to be.

Finally, his music played, and he was making his entrance, once again looking on in wonder at how huge the Tension arena was, packed full of thousands of horny fans looking to see great fights and hot hentai action. With luck, Noah might just be able to provide them with both!

After high fiving a few fans, the speedo clad, tanned teenager entered the ring, and got his first look at Jasper.

He was...cute. Very cute.

Also small. Very smoll.

...Adorable!

"Hey there my good lad!" Noah said, walking right up to Jasper with a friendly smile on his barely clad body and sticking out his hand. "Names Noah. Noah Cassidy, glad to meet-cha!"

"Bore Da and Shwmae~!" Jasper said as he walked over towards Noah, a friendly look on his face with a quizzical but gentle to his head as he gripped the American boy's hand, shaking it politely as he examined the American from head to toe, suppressing a smirk as the Bluenette thought about just how Cute this American lad is, nowhere near as cute as the redhead he fought last time that he totally didn't have feelings for. but this boy was ticking all of Jasper's boxes.

"Shwmae, means Hello in Welsh and 'Bore Da' means Good Morning... And it's quite nice to meet you too!" Jasper replied, the AFW Crowd these days growing more and more fond of the Rhys lad's occasional mutterings of Welsh, many finding it yet another one of many endearing traits that helped make the young wrestler beloved amongst the Tension ranks.

"So this is a Farmboy Vs. Farmboy match?" The Blue boy asked of his taller opponent, a curious look now on his face as he popped the question to his opponent. "Because I imagine American farming is quite different to what I'm used to." he finished as his mind was full of curious questions to ask Noah after defeating him, Jasper circling the Friendly Midwestern Country Boy with that ever present curiosity and piqued interest curious.
