((FADEIN: "The Man More Exciting Than Jesus", the NFW East Champion, the NFW World Heavyweight Champion, and now the ULTRATITLE CHAMPION, the American Alien, the World's Finest Wrestler, MICHAEL MANSON. He sits quietly indian-style on a bench in the bowels of an arena. His head has been stapled back together and his clothes are a black t-shirt and jeans, freshly washed. His feet remain bare, and he has the NFW World title stretched out in front of him. Behind him, looms a recreation of the Ultratitle tropy done in in cherry chocolate.))
MANSON: Back when I still spoke with the man whom I have to consider my biological father, he told one only one really true thing about the world. He would stand on the porch and gaze out at the whole neighborhood and say that there were only 2 types of people in the world. Those who are the kings...and those who are not.
And on this day, with this world title belt still in my possession, with the Ultratitle trophy's shattered remains also hanging on my wall...and with the fact that at the end of the day...through the blood and the metal..through the South and the North.....at the end of the day and night....through 3 falls....
Above everything, I am a king.
More importantly, I am your king.
But I said that all along.
But there is never anything sweeter than being proven right.
When I beat you, Shane Southern, in 2 straight falls, I shook your hand for one reason, and one reason only. Not for respect. Not for kinship. No, but because I know you would remember that more than anything. More than a pinfall, more than falling helpless from a ladder, but that the fact that at the end of the match, not only was I the better wrestler, I was the better man.
You won't sleep well for many nights after this, Shane. You'll always remember the fact that I deigned it important himself to shake your hand. And, honestly, you never would have done the same for me. But after everything, you will never forget the most important thing.
That I was the one who beat you.
And, above all things, I was the one who beat all of you.
I said from the start that the trophy was just metal, that the title was something more. And I know that better than any of you, because now I am the one that has it.
Avery Prosser was not allowed to destroy it, and Craig Miles and Eddie Mayfield didn't tarnish it with their pissing contest.
All of you here now, and all you coming to the NFW, flocking here from over the hills for the first time, or returning to a place that doesn't seem the same anymore, the first thing you should realize is that not only did I plan this, my ultimate victory, from day 1, is that not only am I the subtlest of men, but possibly the most selfish.
And one Ultratitle is great, but two...
But all that is for the future. Another plan, another day. For now, I am content merely to rule over all of you....the NFW...and the entire wrestling kingdom. Because on this day, I am the undisputed greatest wrestler walking this or any other world.
I said that I would save the NFW, the Ultratitle, and any of you that wanted to come along in the end. And while no one else came along, I kept my word on the other two.
Because when you are king, it is always of the utmost importance to keep your promises.
That is what separates us from the pretenders..
Like you, Troy Windham.
You can scream your proclamations, but I make mine in blood.
And while I've noticed that you've never dared come within 20 feet of me since you showed up here. Claiming that you built the NFW, that I become in a lower tier.
Or maybe you're just jealous that my t-shirts sell more than yours?
Or that UPN and the WB are currently waging a battle to host my reality tv show?
Or is it that as king, I just have to weed out the malcontents, and the unloyal. In the old days, they preferred a beheading, and at times, I do enjoy the old ways best.
And I see that there will be quite a show in Philadelphia...and while I'm unscheduled as of this moment....I see no reason for the true king not to appear.
