The scene begins and we see the view of a training area with a wrestling ring in the middle. The view pans through the large space and several weight machines are seen off to one side of the area along with a couple of treadmills. On the other side of the room a set of heavy bags hang from the ceiling and the entrance to the locker room is seen. The view reaches the wrestling ring area and in the very middle of the wrestling ring on a folding chair sits NAW superstar Luke Savage. He’s geared up in his training attire and he’s covered in sweat, apparently just coming off of a fresh training session. He’s leaning forward in the chair, his elbows rested on his knees, and he appears to be in thought as he stares down at the ring canvas. The view slowly zooms in on him and as it stops he slowly looks up, an angry looking flare in his eyes and a snarl on his lips. After a few more seconds he addresses the camera.
Luke: Every now and then in this world there’s a real legit time to get mad. A time to get downright unruly. A time to get fuckin’ pissed as some would put it. I don’t give a shit who you are or how nice you think you are, everybody on this planet has that switch…the switch that changes a person from model citizen to a god damned monster. Well for me, that switch has been hit and right now is lookin’ to be one of those times where I’m gonna have to go out to that ring on Meltdown and pound a sumbitch into a concussion. And why you ask? Why do I feel like walkin’ out to that ring on Meltdown and slaughterin’ Tim Stone? Well ladies and gents, there’s a point to my madness and I’m fixin’ to tell you about it right now.
Luke sits up and leans back in his chair, maintaining his beaming gaze at the camera. He continues on.
Luke: This world is polluted and it pisses me off. Now before you start bitchin’ about me tellin’ you somethin' you already know…let me explain. I ain’t talkin’ bout the kind of pollution that’s destroyin’ our ozone layer or our world’s water supply, everybody knows about that type of pollution. What I’m talkin’ bout is a different kind of pollution. A pollution of the mind and the heart. A pollution that has seemed to infect the world of professional wrestlin’ like a cancer. And I believe that Tim Stone is a major source of that pollution. I intend to remedy that.
Luke takes a breath and the glare dissipates a bit.
Luke: Now I know that many of you are probably thinkin’, “What the hell? This sumbitch is starting to sound just like his cousin Teddy!”
Luke lets out a small chuckle.
Luke: I know, trust me I know. But you see, the fact of the matter is…I ain’t nothin’ like Teddy Justice. I ain’t got no degree from Harvard, or a background in politics, or a billion dollar bank account. But I don’t need any of that shit to see what’s been goin’ on in the NAW. I don’t need to be a damned genius to figure out that Tim Stone is a cancer to our roster. Now some people may think callin’ him a cancer is bein’ a bit harsh, and maybe it is. But in case those people are still havin’ trouble figurin’ it out, let me remind them…I don’t really give a shit. When I climb into that ring I’m climbin’ in there for Luke Savage, not for the fans or for Alice White. I ain’t lookin’ to win popularity contests. But anyway, I digress. Allow me to back things up a little bit and explain my issue with Stone, a man whom I’ve never even met or spoken to before last month. To be perfectly honest, it’s not even Tim Stone himself that I take issue with, but his kind in general. It actually stems way back to before Stone was even a part of our roster. Before many of the people here now were a part of our roster as a matter of fact. I was recruited into the NAW by my cousin Teddy Justice to become the other half of the Homeland Security and right away I dove headfirst into some of the biggest unarmed wars I’ve ever been in. And that’s comin’ from a former US Marine. Some people might find that hard to believe considerin’ that the NAW is always bein’ accused of lackin’ top competition, but you just have to look at it from the other end of the spectrum. While all of the Noah Hansons and the Jason Phoenixes and the Alice Harrisses are busy wrestlin’ for the top spot in our game, there are others who are just enterin’ this sport as rookies. Others who are tryin’ to claw their way up a ladder that’s constantly growin’ above em’. So while everybody may be focused on these other men and women who have already forged their path, THAT boys and girls is what life is like for the Luke Savages of this game. THAT is the NAW I compete in!
Luke leans forward and points into the camera.
Luke: And you know what? I fuckin’ love it! I might bitch and moan about the way things are done sometimes, but to step inside a squared circle and look across the ring at another combatant who is just as eager as you are to start unleashin’ some hell…that feelin’ is priceless to me. And win or lose I cannot get enough of it. I’ve become addicted to it. That’s why for over a year now I’ve been in the NAW getting’ my ass knocked down and still jumpin’ right back up to continue the fight. Because see, I may lose a wrestlin’ match now and again, ah hell who am I kiddin? I’ve lost lots of em’. But one thing I will never lose is a fight. The will to just keep fightin’ will never leave me. But lately, I just don’t think there are many people left on our roster who share that same feelin’. I no longer get that high that I used to get when I climb into the ring and look across at my opponent. They no longer appear to be as hungry as they used to be. I mean hell, I knew damned well that Jody Madrox didn’t want to be in the ring with me. I could see it in his eyes in his promo before I even got to the arena that night. And now I’m willin’ to bet that the last place Tim Stone wants to be is inside the ring with me on the next Meltdown. So for that reason, Time Stone is useless to me and to the NAW in my opinion. He’s a symbol of what’s wrong with the NAW, and with every other fed for that matter, and I intend to do everything at my disposal to end him.
Luke sits back once more and crosses his arm as he briefly switches to reasoning mode.
Luke: Now don’t get me wrong, I gave this sumbitch every opportunity to prove me incorrect. I smacked him upside his head on Meltdown a few weeks ago and afterwards he cowered like a little baby all week and said nothing. Then at the next show he comes out and finally looks like he’s gonna do somethin’ to fuel our upcomin' match and he gets taken out easily by Crimson North. So after that, I thought for damned sure he’d have somethin’ to say and my views on him would finally be put to rest. But alas, here we are and Time Stone is nowhere to be seen or heard from. I mean sure, he’s been heard from but it ain’t been anywhere near an NAW camera. For some reason the guy has no problem makin’ it onto twitter to give everybody his opinions on what’s been happenin’ in other wrestling companies, he just doesn’t give a shit about the one he’s contracted to. I mean, I'm sure there are many people who actually care about his opinions on that crap...I however, am not one of those people. I have other things I’d like to get Tim Stone’s opinion on instead. Like for instance, what is Tim Stone’s opinion on the asswhoopin’ that Luke Savage is gonna be bringin’ for him on Meltdown? What does Tim Stone think of Luke Savage stomping his worthless ass all over the area on Wednesday night? And most importantly, what unemployment line will Tim Stone be standin’ in after Luke Savage sends his ass packin’ from the NAW? These are the burnin’ questions on my mind. So if any of you mindless zombies who follow Tim Stone on twitter could pass along that info to him before Wednesday night, I’ll be anxiously awaiting to hear his opinions…
Luke holds up his right fist, an angry looking glare appearing back on his face again.
Luke: …and I’ll be ready to hashtag that shit as soon as the bell rings!
Luke stands up and violently swipes the chair aside and it tumbles across the mat and underneath the bottom rope to the outside. He then walks up to the camera and grabs it, holding it close to his face and snarling into it as he continues.
Luke: Like I said, everybody has a time to get mad. That time for me starts right…fuckin’…now!!
Luke shoves the camera away and it falls on the mat on its side. A sideways view of Luke climbing out of the ring is then seen as the scene fades.
