(CUT TO: Troy Windham, standing on a balcony overlooking New York City's Central Park West, one of the most elite zip codes in all of the world. Troy is standing on the balcony, wearing a coudorouy suit jacket over a Hollister T-shirt, holding the CSWA Unified Title, his custom-made belt with the light up sign reading E-P-I-T-O-M-E.)
TROY: So I just saw on DirectTv Channel 654 a major announcement about the CSWA. Seems that I once again rubbed someone the wrong way. WOOPS. Steve Thomas got upset that a few weeks ago I said I would not face Dan Ryan or my brother Mark in a rematch for the title. He's upset that I'm throwing my weight around, so he came up with a new concept for the match... a five-ring battle royale, with me the man everyone's gunning for.
Thomas thinks I'm supposed to be pissed about this? Upset? Upset that countless men are going to be gunning for me? How many folks are lined up for this? 30 men? 40? 100? All of whom want to get in a wrestling ring with me in an attempt to take this title. (Troy holds up The Big Gold.)
Well, Thomas, I'm not upset... because you just played yourself right into my hands. Twelve years ago, when I made my professional wrestling debut, I told the world that I was going to be the biggest star this sport has ever seen. I told everyone that all of the big names... GUNS, Eli Flair, Mike Randalls, Alexander Karelin, Degadeath... and even my brother Mark... and this league's franchise player, Hornet... would one day be FORCED ASIDE so Troy Windham would take his spot as the de facto GREATEST WRESTLER IN THE HISTORY OF THIS INDUSTRY. Everyone laughed at me, everyone told me that I was crazy... and then I went out and did everything that I said I was going to do.
I told you all that I was going to have my name listed on the marquee outside every wrestling arena in this country. I did just that.
I told you all that I was going to become the richest man in this sport. My bank account says it all. I did just that.
I told you all that I was going to be a mainstream star with crossover appeal, my name on movie posters and at the end of TV shows with executive producer credits. I did just that.
I told you all that I was going to win this title and bring it to heights never seen. I am the one who saved this league nearly ten years ago, the man who defeated GUNS, the man Hornet could never beat. And I am the man who took the CSWA Unified Title and brought it to a new entertainment venue, the man whose face was used to launch www.fwrestling.com, the greatest start-up venture this industry has ever seen. I did exactly as I said I would.
Look at what I've done the past two years. I've buried men under the American flag. I've peed in people's faces. I stowedaway on a cruise ship, hiding amongst the luggage, just to put my brother and Dan Ryan in his place. I married the EPW World Champion against her will.
I've done whatever I wanted. I've done whatever I said I was going to do.
And now I'm saying something else.
This is an open challenge to everyone in the world. Come one, come all. Step right up and get a shot at Troy Windham. The Epitome. The best damn wrestler on this planet today.
Because I'm saying something else right now.
I'm going to beat each and every single one of you that night. And then I'm joining the likes of Michael, Muhammed, Lance and Pele.
That is the night where my greatest achievement will be accomplished. That is the night when I show, without a shadow of a doubt, that I am the greatest wrestler who has ever lived.
That is the night where it will be Troy Windham Versus The World.
And the world ain't gonna win.
