[updated:LAST EDITED ON May-20-02 AT 12:41 PM (EST)](FADE IN to the set of GXW Inside Edition, hosted by Jason Grant. Two chairs can be seen in the dimly lit studio as well as the GXW logo on the backdrop. Grant is wearing a GXW polo shirt and khaki pants. The opening montage of the show can be seen on the monitors. Including footage from Kin Hiroshi, Rob Sampson, Kevin Powers, Kendall Codine, Hellfighter, Mason & Tate, Dan Ryan, and many more. The GXW Inside Edition logo and graphics come onto the screen. The studio lights come on and the shot cuts to Jason Grant, who calmly reads from the teleprompter.)
JG: Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. We have a variety of topics to discuss on today’s show, such as the Dan Ryan & Chad Dupree combination, taking on Kendall Codine & Erik Zieba. But before we get into that, I have a guest here in the studio tonight that some of you may be familiar with…some of you, maybe not so familiar. It’s the biggest scoop I have heard all week, the sheets…the internet, they have all been buzzing about this individual possible coming to terms with GXW, and today I am proud to say that he has verbally agreed to come in.
(A graphic pops up in the top right hand corner of the screen. It is a silhouette of a man with an afro.)
I’m not gonna have him via satellite…not at all, because he is gone be HERE in the studio…TONIGHT! Folks, there is a lot I can say about this man. A lot of you who have watched the CSWA are familiar with him; he is one-half of a tremendous tag team duo. He has held the Unified Tag Team titles there on numerous occasions. The man has done a lot…but he hasn’t done it all. Due to a clause in his contract with the CSWA, he now has the option to pursue a singles career and subsequently has decided that GXW is the place for him to do so.
If you don’t know of whom I am speaking, it is none other than Boogie Smallz, a.k.a. the Boogie Man. The tag team, of course, has been around for nearly a decade…the Hip Hop Express. You can’t deny Boogie’s marketability and the fans he has amassed over the years. People have wanted to see this happen for a long time…and now they get their chance.
When we come back, Boogie will be right here, in an exclusive one on one interview that you cannot miss. But right after these messages from our sponsors…Docolax!
(The commercial begins to air.)
KID: Mom…I don’t feel so good. I guess I shouldn’t have eaten all those burritos.
MOM: Oh Timmy, I’ve got something that will brighten your day.
(The mom opens a cabinet in the kitchen and begins to pull out a box of Docolax. The child’s eyes light up and the mom smiles.)
V/O: The number one laxative in the country, preferred by 4 out of 5 doctors. You wouldn’t trust just any laxative for you or your kids. Trust us…trust Docolax. (Then in a sped up and mumbled speech.) Docolax may cause heart failure, lung deterioration, kidney disruptions, hyperventilating, dizziness, loss of hearing, and brain hemorrhaging. Should not be taken with any other medications or side effects may occur. Docolax is also available in Bubble Gum, Cherry, Grape, and Original flavors.
(After a long shot of the box, the shot cuts to the mom hugging her kid. The kid is now full of energy and smiling from ear to ear.)
MOM: Thanks Docolax!
(The commercial fades out and the show fades back in. There is a cloud of smoke in the studio now and Jason Grant looks a little uncomfortable.)
JG: Hey folks, no need to adjust your sets. That’s not a fuzzy picture and the studio is not on fire. Boogie Smallz has made himself at home in the green room and the effects are coming out onto our set. It is my understanding that he likes to relax with a Cuban before his interviews…no, not a Cuban person…a cigar. Oh, nevermind. Before I bring him out, lets take a look at a little video package we put together of some of his CSWA footage…set to the song “Ride With Me” by Nelly!
(The montage begins to play, showing various clips of the Hip Hop Express in action. Against teams like Foreign Exchange, Simply Stunning, CS Express, Suicide Squad, Strictly Business, Lunar Express, SWAT Team, and several other familiar faces.)
(CUT TO Boogie powerbombing an opponent in the ring.)

(CUT TO Boogie “raising the roof” with his arms in slow motions as the video fades out.)
(The video package ends and the scene cuts back to Jason Grant sitting in the studio. The smoke in the air is thicker than before.)
JG: Folks, sitting opposite of me right now, is the man of the hour…Boogie Smallz! Boogie, welcome to Inside Edition and welcome to GXW!
(A tall, muscular, African-American man is sitting in the chair opposite of Jason Grant. He has a mustache and goatee, as well as a well-groomed afro. He is wearing a white fur coat, wearing a Sean John t-shirt, and black pants. Around his neck is a platinum and diamond medallion of the Hip Hop Express’s logo. He has what appears to be a cigar in his mouth and is sporting a pair of gold Versace sunglasses. He smiles and begins to speak, while clutching his blunt.)
BOOGIE: Yeah…um, thanks for havin’ me. Man, someone should have told me that the Green Room wasn’t your smoke-out spot. I automatically assumed that “green” meant weed, and sparked it up. (Taking a drag off of his blunt.) That was a nice little video package you put together for me. There was a lot you left out, but I think it gives people the general vibe that I am putting out.
JG: That you are a disco dancing brawler who loves to smoke illegal substances and who adores his fans?
BOOGIE: (Looking a little disturbed by Grant’s comments.) So you are just gonna go ahead and stereotype a brotha!? You are gonna go ahead and label me before anyone else gets a chance to form a futhamuckin’ opinion!? (Looks around the studio.) Man, I thought GXW was gonna be different, but its all the same…everywhere I go. There I am held back, the suits try to control me. They don’t want me smokin’ on TV. They don’t want me using vulgarity, even though it can easily be edited. They just want me to go out there, play the role, and make the fans happy. (Pauses) Well F(BLEEP) THAT! I ain’t havin’ it! There are more sides to Boogie than most people know and in GXW I plan to let myself really be me.
Now don’t get me wrong, I love my people…and they love me. But my venture into GXW isn’t for them…they are welcome to tag along for the ride, but this is for ME! I don’t have my partner, Inferno Ice, here to bail me out. I don’t know anyone here and its almost like the slate is clean and it’s Boogie Smallz’ turn to fill in the blanks! The fans here, they ain’t ready for me. The suits here, they don’t know what they are getting themselves into. As for the talent…the wrestlers that you have making up your organization, they thought life was simple. They thought that their days remaining in this sport were gonna be peaceful, they thought they could just go through the motions, make a decent living, and wouldn’t have any interruptions, but this VACATION they have been livin’ in is about to come to an end. If you thought making your dough was easy before…be prepared now to actually EARN YOUR LIVING!
(Boogie removes his gold sunglasses and tosses them onto the table in front of him. He looks into the camera with an evil scowl and puffs his blunt. Now feeling a bit more at ease, he takes another puff again and looks around him as if he is searching for something.)
BOOGIE: Yo son, you got an ashtray or somethin’? (Spots a coffee cup on the table.) No problem, playa…I got this. (Boogie ashes his blunt into the cup. Grant looks on, as if he is shocked, and Boogie looks up at him and throws up a peace sign.) I appreciate that, dog. You were through with that, right?
JG: Well I am NOW!
BOOGIE: Just chill out, whoadie! It’s only some futhamuckin’ coffee…the way you been acting though, you probably have been drinkin’ some HATERADE! (Takes a puff of his blunt.)
JG: What is Haterade?
BOOGIE: (Exhaling smoke in Grant’s direction.) Some folks sip on syzurp. Some folks drink on 40 ounces. And for those that HATE ON ME…they drink Haterade! Just ask my peeps, my whoadies, my NIZZOS, they’ll all tell ya’! Playaz gonna play, ballerz gonna ball, and haterz gonna hate. It’s an endless cycle, but nonetheless the life we live. There is only one way to rid yourself of playa-hatin’ and that’s smokin’ on this. (Takes a toke of his blunt and points at it with the other hand.)
JG: Well, I did a little in college, but since I got married and have kids…I gave it up. It left me without drive. I wouldn’t be here today if I kept smoking that stuff.
BOOGIE: It has different effects for different people. As for me? It fuels my rage, it makes me calm, it helps me balance my emotions. ‘Cuz if I didn’t smoke this…Boogie Smallz would be a very irritated individual! (Looking at Grant.) Now come on, either you hit this or you and I are gonna have issues, son. (Pauses) SMOKE THIS S(BLEEP)!
(After Boogie gives an intimidating stare at Grant, he takes the blunt from his hands and nervously takes a puff. Grant begins coughing uncontrollably and Boogie watches on laughing.)
JG: (Coughing) Can someone please get me some water? (Coughs) Are you happy now? (Coughing)
BOOGIE: (Laughing) Man, I was just f(BLEEP)in’ with you! You didn’t really have to smoke that. I was just givin’ you a hard time, dog.
(Grant looks shocked and a little angry. The effects of the toke he took begin to take effect and he now looks a little more mellowed out.)
JG: (Opening a bottle of water someone off the screen handed him.) No, its cool. I hope I don’t lose my job over this. (Drinking from the bottle.)
BOOGIE: Man, you are too paranoid. Just lay back and enjoy. That’s what I am gonna do here in GXW. There ain’t never been someone like me and unlike this federation full of carbon copies…Boogie Smallz is gonna show y’all how its done. So if you are used to the standards here…get ready for a whole new set, because I’m gonna RAISE THE BAR! I could sit out here ALL DAY and talk about myself, but instead I got some chickenheadz waitin’ for me ‘round the corna’.
JG: (Guzzling water.) Any parting words for the fans watching at home?
BOOGIE: Nah…not really. I ain’t tryin’ to make a statement…just make an impact. If someone has a problem with that…if someone has a problem with me, then by all means PLEASE step up. PLEASE bring me everything you got, ‘cause I’m here to tell ya…it won’t be enough to put Boogie Smallz away! I ain’t no punk ass cracka that just finished wrestling school and is ready for the big time. (Shakes his head and puffs his blunt.) See, I am a damn near 10 year vet. I've won championships everywhere I competed and you better believe that GXW will not be an exception!
JG: (With a grin on his face.) Well Boogie, thanks for coming out. We will definitely have to hook up again. You are a pretty cool guy, brother.
BOOGIE: Brother? Since when are we family? (Moving up in his seat before he stands.) Man, I ain’t got time to lecture you, son…so I’m, just gonna roll out. HOLLA!
(Boogie Smallz gets out of his seat and walks off the set. Jason Grant looks confused and the scene quickly changes to a commercial for sweepstakes for Global Warfare. FADE TO BLACK)
