FADEIN....
UCW Backdrop. John Doe is standing in front of it in an American Egale shirt and pants.
DOE:
"Well, well, well. I bet the bookers were having a field day when thy decided to book this match. It’s kind of funny Cruise, I show up and all I hear is this faint jaw jacking from your mouth. The same one liner ‘Doe-boy’ the same arrogant cocky clown you’ve always been."
"Yes Cruise you have beat me to a bloody pulp ONE inch from life until I was walking down the white tunnel."
"Then again…."
"I am still standing right here Cruise. I am still breathing, all bodily functions still operational. Looks like you did a half assed job of bringing me one inch of life. It’s almost as though you failed….."
"No…."
"Not Cameron Cruise! Not the all mighty the all great, the best damn thing since slice bread, he can’t fail! He is the man…."
"Excuse me as I steal your line…"
"REALITY CHECK!"
"You are a failure in the center of wrestling. You think what you provide for New Era has achieved any sort of merit? How long you been there Cammy? And you have had how many chances for title shots? You have arrived in the main events how many times?"
"I AM an ICON."
"Here in UWC, there in New Era. I have become a household freaking name. I am the man people want to push to bring the cash flow raking in. You are here to provide a challenge to me. This time no different than the rest."
"Question is Cammy, are you going to come out on top this time around?"
"Answer, no."
"Fact! I have become more ring capable since the last time we crossed paths. There are things I have learned about wrestling that will blow your mind to bits. Let me put it straight an simple Cruise…"
"I am the best high flyer in the business BAR NONE. I can run circles around a man Cam and that is the bottom of the barrel of my techniques. I also have become quite adequate in technical wrestling. You have to know all the styles to be a true competitor Cam. At this point in my career I can honestly say I am at my peak."
"And guess what…."
"You can’t topple this mountain. You can’t climb this peak. You CAN’T defeat me."
"Sure! Bring up the past Cam, live in the past, use that as your reasoning for the future. But let me bring you back to real life. The past proves mistakes and how to learn from them. This Cam, THIS is NOW, and NOW stats I am going to wipe the ring with you like the little whore you are."
"Do us a favor, why don’t you go live in Joey Melton’s shadow for a bit longer and we can all pretend we never knew you existed. We can all live soundly knowing you are no more than Joey Melton’s *****. But it does make sense if you really think hard about it. You having to use Joey Melton as some way to reach glory and prestige. Couldn’t ask any more of you Cam".
"YOU ARE NOTHING."
"And like that the book was closed Cam,. Another chapter completed and another win for me."
