Morpheus in Sagitta
04.18.2071 from Sagitta- Morpheus in Sagitta -"You see," said the old man to the young boy, "Morpheus's arriving in Sagitta's wrestling league was very important for Torin. Morpheus had a major hand in how wrestling has turned out today."
"How's that grandpa?" Interrupted the figiting boy. The grandfather put his hand on the boys head as to calm him down.
"Well if it wasn't for him and Omega we might not being enjoying the sport today. Morpheus did have a short run in Sagitta. Do you remember me telling you about Cobra Rex? Well Morpheus even tagged with him a few times in the fed." The old man continued, "You see Morpheus' interactions with various wrestlers would come into play again later for the GWF. But I'm getting ahead of myself."
The old man sighed as if thinking, "This story is a little different from the previous ones. I'll tell you about two matches the first was one I hinted at and it was Morpheus and Cobra Rex versus the two POW brutes Screw and Slug."
"You might not like these stories as much," stated the old man. "But I think they are important for the history of wrestling."

- Tag Team -Morpheus and
Cobra Rex vs.
Screw and
SlugSlug defeated Morpheus with a Brass Knuckles at 19:41
Match Rating: 4.00
Match Notes: Cobra Res and Morpheus worked well as a makeshift team. However, the two POW brutes were too wild to be kept down tonight. Cobra Rex had a high point and looked like he was going to get the pin over Slug, but Screw was ready and stopped the count. He then threw Cobra out of the ring and hit a Freakish Face Slam on the concrete floor. He then threw him back in Slug went for the cover but Morpheus broke it up. After some dominating by the POW thugs it was finally ended after a huge double powerbomb on Morpheus. If that wasn't enough Slug also hammered Morpheus with brass knuckles busting him open a little bit. Screw was distracting the ref so it went unseen and Slug got the 3 count.
The two thugs weren't done there though. Slug used his knuckles a few more times as Screw grabbed a steel chair. Cobra Rex and Morpheus looked worse for wear but they weren't seriously injured.
- Torin vs Jack Continued -The boy stared at his grandpa and said, "I thought Morpheus was this great wrestling hero? Why did he get beaten so badly by the bad guys?"
The old man was tight lipped for a second and answered the boy, "Well unfortunately in the Galaxy the good guys don't always win. Or maybe they don't win in the normal way of thinking." He continued, "If you had questions about that first match I know you will have some after I tell you about this one."
The boy looked serious as his grandfather continued the story. "Well like we've been talking about Torin and Jack Hood a lot. I'd say we could argue that Torin has been besting Jack for the most part. Well this match was definately different."

- Normal -Torin Caelum vs.
Jack HoodJack Hood defeated Torin Caelum with THE RIPPER at 15:06
Match Rating: 4.75
Match Notes: This was not a good match for Torin. Jack Hood basically destroyed him in this match and won with THE RIPPER. Jack was out to prove a point and contined to thrash Torin. It wasn't long before Screw and Slug came down to aid their POW leader in the beating.
Bleeding badly, Torin was finally rescued by Morpheus leading the charge of him Cobra Rex and a few other of Sagittas faces. They then started to beat down on Jack and his crew as they now had the numbers. Torin was not able to jump in the fray as he was badly hurt. After finally getting some distance Jack made his gettaway. He shouted at Morpheus and the fans of Sagitta that they might have won this fight but that he would be back and that he would be bringing more punishment like Torin experienced tonight.
- The Boys Reaction -"GRANDPA!" Shouted the boy, "Was Torin alright?! I mean what happened to him that night? Was he injured so badly that he never wrestled again? Is that Why I've never heard of him until..." The old man once again placed his hand on the boy's head to calm him down.
"No and yes. That night, no he was not good. They got the better of him and he had to spend a little time recovering from the brutal attack. However, he wasn't out of the fight yet," smiled the old man. "He would wrestle again so don't worry."
"Do you remember how I said sometimes you win, but it might not be a win in the normal way?" asked the old man. "Yeah," responded the boy."
"Well even though the good guys got beat that night it was a victory for them as well." The boy gave a questioning look to his grandfather. "Ha let me explain. You see how did that night end? Yes it ended up with Torin being bloody but thats not the most important part. No, the key to that night was how the backroom emptied out to save Torin."
"This was the first time that a group of fighters stood up to Jack Hood. Other times its only been a few people standing up against his villianous ways. Even beaten himself that night Morpheus rallied up the Sagittas fighters to stop Jack, Slug, and Screw."
"So what happened to Jack that night?" asked the boy.
"Well he did leave for a little while," answered the old man. "But he would return just like he said he would. He would head to another fed somewhere else to stir up some trouble. This was a good night though for both Torin and Morpheus. This brought them together so to speak. Even though Morpheus would leave Sagitta to go to other feds, this wouldn't be the last time Torin and Morpheus were in a ring together."
The boy got excited. "Are you going to tell me about that next time?" The old man shook his head. "Well then what about Torin?"
The old man thought for a minute. "I'll tell you some more about Torin, but I think maybe next time I'll tell you a few other stories around the galaxy okay?" The boy nodded. "Good now go get ready for bed."
