Who Is Mike Mason?
Well, he is the Marvelous One of course, but who is he at his base, at his core? Is he deeper than his cocky and chauvinistic exterior? Or, is he really just a narcissist? That is what we are going to dive into over these next few weeks in our 30 for 30, "The Journey to Mecca of Manhood".
*The scene fades from the cookie-cutter, middle-aged white male, ESPN talking head in a director’s chair to a reenactment scene that is voiced over by this same media puppet in the director’s chair. *
Determination: A noun, the first meaning is one of firmness of purpose; resoluteness. Example, "he advanced with an unflinching determination". The second is the process of establishing something exactly by calculation or research. Example, the "determination of molecular structures".
*The scene opens with a strapping young teenager, dressed in a football helmet, and shoulder firing out of a three-point stance and into a blocking sled. The teen hits the sled and begins driving it back as the coach standing on the back of the sled barks at the player. *
"Push harder, damnit."
Andrew Mason was a hardass, but he was fueled by determination. Andrew played 9 years in the NFL, resulting in two trips to the Superbowl, and zero Superbowl rings because he played for the Bills. Andrew was determined that his son would obtain that ring he had missed out on.
Mike was Andrew's only son, and to who all of his regrets from his life hung on. Andrew was also Mike's high school football coach and his biggest critic. Every day Andrew kept Mike after practice for extra drills, extra sprints, extra lifts, and today under the 95-degree Tampa sun, more time on the blocking sled.
"Don't you want this? Don't you want states? Don't you want a D1 scholarship? Don't you want to play in the League? Don't you want a ring?"
A teenage Marvelous One is on his hands and knees, exhausted from two practices that day, from the heat, and from the past twenty minutes he has been hitting the sled.
"Eh, you don't want that stuff, do you? You don't have the guts or determination for this. Alright, come on I'll take you home and let your Mommy put her titty in her little baby's mouth. "
The then Mecca of Teenhood, fires up and rams his shoulder into the sled again, and begins pushing it. The Marvelous One's cleats dig into the dried-out Tampa grass, as he shoves. His calves bulge as he is up on the balls of his feet, driving the heavy sled.
With the strength and determination that most grown men couldn't even match, The Titan shoves the sled another 40 yards before collapsing to his knees. Andrew, who is never impressed or satisfied by his son's performance, steps off the sled.
"I might make a ballplayer out of you yet. Get up, get a drink, and change... you got stairs to run."
Hard work, like that, is what made Michael Mason into the Mecca of Manhood. That hard work and determination made him...
"Simply Marvelous."
*The shot fades from the reenactment to the modern day where The Marvelous One sits in a director's chair. Behind Triple M, is a giant poster of himself posing from when he won Mr. Olympia, the highest honor in bodybuilding, but I'm sure you sis-gender soy boys wouldn't know that. TM1's sharkskin suit clings tight to his massive chest, a stark contrast from this random ESPN analyst sitting across from him. *

Mike Mason.
That's Marvelous Mike Mason to you.
Um, sorry. Marvelous Mike Mason you are returning to pro…
*The Big Natty Daddy cuts this dweeb off. *
WRONG! I'm making my OCW debut.
You've competed in OCW before though.
That was the Margarita Mix, so it doesn't count.
But, you lost to TLS on Massacc…
WRONG AGAIN! I've never lost a professional wrestling match in my life. I was busy filming a new remake of Conan The Barbarian, and since I do all my own stunts, my stunt double was just sitting around with nothing to do. So, I sent him to face TLS, because I'd never no-show. But, my stunt double sucked, and he lost.
So, you are saying you sent a stunt double and he lost, not you.
Right, and I fired him for losing.
But you also lost in the second round of the Margaritas Mix.
No, I didn't. Anthony Cross got pinned, so he lost not me. No one has ever beaten me.
*The ESPN guy looks confused. Maybe he should have done his homework before hurling these insults. I'd expect this from CNN+, but this is ESPN. *
Well, you make your OCW debut Monday at Massacre, as OCW heads to Djibouti.
Well, you make your OCW debut Monday at Massacre, as OCW heads to Djibouti.
You are wrong again. It's Dubai.
Uhh, no it's not.
*The Messiah of Muscle rolls his eyes and pulls out his phone. A few swipes from his manicured finger and he finds what he is looking for. TM1's eyes almost bulge out of his head when he sees the word "Djibouti". *
Why would anyone choose to run an event here? You could have booked any venue in the world, and you pick the driest sandbox in the birthplace of aids.
Hey, now, we can't be saying things like that.
The Marvelous One will say whatever he pleases.
That is a very inflammatory remark, and….
The Marvelous One isn't some Toto mark, he doesn't bless the rains in Africa. How is The Mecca of Manhood supposed to hit his daily macro count in a country full of poverty and famine? I guarantee there isn't a GNC within a thousand miles of that giant litter box they call a country. Do you know how much it is going to cost the New Age Titan to have Bodybuilding.com ship all his supplements to Diet Booty?
I told you it is DJIBOUTI!
Don't raise your voice to the Big Natty Daddy or you'll be mounted on his wall like the Lion that old dentist killed a few years ago everyone for butt hurt about. It's Diet Booty because if you drink the water there, that is if there is even water there, then you'll lose twenty pounds by spewing liquid out your back door.
Folks…. Uh… we'll be right back.
*The scene fades to a commercial break, one about some lame online sports betting app, it didn't even have OCW in the sports book, weak ass programming. When the commercials are over the 30 for 30 continues with archived footage.

The 2007 Tostitos Fiesta Bowl, Glendale Arizona. This is the game that will decide the 2007 NCAA National Football champions. The Ohio State Buckeyes currently lead The Miami University Hurricanes 24 to 21 with two minutes and fourteen seconds left in the fourth quarter. Mike Mason plays middle linebacker for the Hurricane's stacked 4-3 defense.
Mason is not yet the Mecca of Manhood, he is currently a redshirt Junior, and one of the top linebackers in the country. It's 2nd and 7 for the Buckeyes and the Hurricanes are about to run a blitz, with Mason blitzing into the A gap. With the lead by three, The Buckeyes are planning on running the clock out. Mason and the rest of the Cane's defense have different ideas though.
The Buckeyes snap the ball, Mason jumps the snap, hits the hole hard, and is in the backfield as the ball is handed off to the running back. As the Buckeyes running back takes the ball, Mason is there with the hit stick. Mason drops the running back for a three-yard loss and puts the Buckeyes in a 3rd and 10 situation.
Mason's teammates are hyped up, smacking Mason on the helmet and cheering him on, but Mason is not ready to celebrate and is not satisfied with just a big play. The Buckeyes run as much time out on the clock as they can, but have to line up and run a play. With it being 3rd and 10 on the Miami thirty-three, Ohio State decides to pass the ball.
Mason and the Miami defense were expecting a pass and played it perfectly with a man cover two. Mason reads the Quarterback's eyes and the play. Mason breaks on the play, reading the pass. The QB tries to hit the Tight End on a crossing route, but Mason is there to intercept the pass.
Mason comes in fast and hard, snatching the ball right before the Tight End can catch it. Mason lowers his shoulder and runs right through the Tight End, dropping the Buckeye to the ground hard. Mason tucks the ball and turns the jets on. Mason cuts around the corner and completely outruns the Buckeye's offensive line. The Quarterback is the only person left to try and stop Mason. The QB gives chase and is within arm's length, when Mason throws a hard stiff arm to the head, dropping the Qb to the turf.
Mason runs free into the end zone, scoring a touchdown with the pick-six. The Miami fans, sideline, and defense goes crazy with celebrations. Mason throws the ball into the crowd and is embraced by his teammates.
The Canes hold onto the lead and win the game 28 to 24, and become the NCAA National Football Champions. Mason's interception for a touchdown, his two sacks on the night, and his sixteen total tackles earned him the honor of MVP for the game. During the post-game festivities, Pam Oliver had an exclusive interview with Mason for ABC Sports.
Mike Mason, tell us, what were you thinking as you crossed the goal line on that interception?
I was thinking... I JUST WON THE NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP!
*She gives a slight laugh and a big smile. *
That interception, the hit on the Tight End, and the stiff arm on the Quarterback, that truly was a Marvelous play, made by a truly Marvelous player.
When she says that, it triggers something in The Mecca of Manhood. It's as if a light bulb goes off in his head. He is a Marvelous player, he is a Marvelous individual, he is... Simply Marvelous.
*The scene fades from the archived footage to Triple M standing in the hall of an old fire station, holding a pair of brown overalls and a proton pack in the other. *
Sadie, these virgin producers wanted me to wear this jumpsuit and backpack to recreate some Ghostbusters parody as a way to hype our match. I'd never be caught doing something so nerdy. Even though I am not afraid of any ghost, I'd never hide my beautiful body in such an ugly outfit, and I don't need some electric laser gun to beat your anorexic ass.
Your spooky-spooky, creepy-creepy shtick might work on the weak-minded jabronis you've faced so far, but the only thing stronger than my squat is my mind. If I'm being honest though, you are quite terrifying, and I'm afraid of facing you in the ring.
*TM1 opens his hands, letting the props fall to the ground. 3M steps over the props moving forward. *
I'm afraid of you putting your disgusting hands on my body and afraid that once you get within the presence of the Abdominal Adonis, you lose your mind with lust and just throw yourself at me. I'm terrified of that because I'd hate for the world to see some West Virginia two, which is a negative four on a national average, putting their hands down my tights in an attempt to grab the Marvelous Member.
No one likes an anorexic goth chick, who looks like they haven't eaten a meal without shoving a finger down their throat afterward. Now, big titty goth chicks, that's a different story, and something else being shoved down their throat.
*The Messiah of Muscle smirks and shakes his head. *
Sadie, I'm going to burn your pale, vitamin D deficient ass worse than a UV index over eleven. The Grudge sucked, The Ring sucked, The Audition sucked, and you suck. I'm a grown-ass man, two hundred and forty-five pounds of twisted steel and raw sex appeal… so why would I ever be afraid of some bulimic bitch who needs a shower and a makeover?
I'm the brick house standing in this firehouse. The one everyone wants to spouse. Gonna catch Sadie in a trap like a mouse. Even if she got nothing under her blouse. I'll extinguish all doubts. That the time of the Marvelous One is to be pronounced. The haters will try to denounce. But The Marvelous One flourishes and sprouts. I'll put Sadie to sleep like she smoked an ounce. Then her Craze title match will be renounced. As The Marvelous One is too much for her to surmount. Simply Marvelous put her down for the three count.
*TM1 smirks and brushes his shoulder off. *
Sadie Ko, it's time for you to go. After I send your spook show ass back to the dark side, I'm claiming your Craze title match. Then, I'll tame the wild Tamilka on the road to Mecca… The Mecca of Manhood.
*The Big Natty Daddy winks into the camera as the shot slowly fades out. *
