The cameras start to roll as they open up in Miami, Florida. As the cameras fade in closer on the premises of the Phoenix’s Estates, they switch over from the mansion itself to a manmade rock built shelter without a door, but just a tan colored curtain hanging in the doorway. As the cameras enter this shelter, they begin down a rough patch of wooden steps: going underground of the Phoenix’s Estates. Stepping off the very bottom step and stepping in between the curtains of the lower end—Jason Phoenix is leaning against the far wall of the underground lair as he looks up. He looks up when a glimpse of sunlight shines through the opened curtain after the cameraman enters his domain. Once entered inside the lair, Jason Phoenix lowers his head and rolls it to one side. He begins to speak as he starts to fiddle the fingers on his right hand. The cameraman zooms in on him.
“Living Legend” Jason Phoenix : “Those who have doubted the demented demon have slowly been opened to a whole new world of consequences. One by one: people have tried to step inside the ring to stop me from pure dominance, but have coward like sheep. All those victories and souls I have captured has earned me an opportunity for the North America Wrestling’s Legacy Championship. In a short while I will be challenging Jason Price for the title and ending his miserable reign as the true reign of terror takes over the entire NAW! But first, first, on the first Meltdown of the new year, I must focus on a thing… a beast… an animalistic mortal and Jason Price’s brother. The world has already witnessed the fall of the Beast when he tried to power his way over my authority, but he learned no amount of power, strength, or animalistic tendencies were going to assist him in defeating the Living Legend. The one thing about the Beast is his stupidity. The Beast has yet to understand or comprehend the consequences of his actions in regards to how he looks at me. He should learn to worship me and follow me into the night, but instead he roams the earth without any guidance or path. This is why the defeat over the Beast is going to be that simple. He will crumble at my hands and entire world will see just a pile of ashes lying in the middle of the ring where the Beast was.”
He lets out a growl as his upper lip slightly lifts. He lets out a chuckle before he continues to speak.
“Living Legend” Jason Phoenix : “Say what you want Beast about your failing to successfully cash in your little briefcase at Holiday Fear. The truth is, you failed. You were incapable of being able to bring the title home or deliver the amount of pain you wished you could have unleashed onto Jason Price. Now, here you are trying to hinder somebody else success for your own benefit. This is no longer about you, Beast. This is about me and proving that I am ready to outshine, outmatch, and outwrestle every single competition on the current NAW’s roster. As the roster continues to grow, that Legacy Championship gets added a little more value. Deep down I know how badly you want to be number one. You want everybody to see you as the top star in this company, but you will always be at least number two because I do not intend to pass the torch now or ever. I swear to you, you get in my way Beast and I am going to eat you alive. I am going to rip your soul out of your chest and watch the blood drip down my hand. Beast, you do not want to step inside the same ring with me. You do not want to get in my territory because it will be the last time you ever make that mistake again. My streak over you continues and my path to the Legacy Championship grows only stronger than it has ever been in this company!”
He places his right hand over his mouth and he lowers his head to the floor. He starts to shake his head with his eyes close, but he slowly starts to raise his head up. As he raises his head up, he opens his eyes wide and they are totally white.
“Living Legend” Jason Phoenix : “While the Beast might be the physical threat in this match, I cannot forget about Sexy Jason. As easy as it will be to defeat him, I am going to use him as an example and send his lifeless body back to Jason Price as a message. It will be a message of doom. Jason Price better watch this match closely because everything I do to Sexy Jason is going to be intensified times ten when I get my hands on Jason Price. Sexy Jason is the farthest person from my mind, but since he wants to help his brother in any way, shape, and form then he deserves every ounce of pain he is going to suffer at my hands. He doesn’t belong in my domain. He’s a tiny little sheep being fed to the monstrous T-rex, but it is his own stupidity, which has landed him in this match. It is his own stupidity, which is going to make his career that much shorter than it already is. Sexy Jason is nothing more than a mere pretty boy who rather worry about his pretty little face than his wrestling talent. After his meeting with me, he won’t have even that to fall back on. He is going to be a hideous laughing stock of this company and I cannot wait to see the look of disfigurement on his face after the hours of plastic surgery he is looking to undergo after I dismantle him limb by limb!”
He places his right hand into his left and he starts to aggressively massage them into each other while his eyes are closed and he’s rolling his neck in a circular direction.
“Living Legend” Jason Phoenix : “Nobody thought I deserve the credit I have been shown by Ms. Harris. Nobody looked at my victory over Noah Hanson as one that should have went down in the history books, even though I was the very first pin-fall defeat Noah Hanson suffered in this company. Even to this day, I am the only superstar who has been able to pin his shoulders to the mat. How did Jason Price manage to beat Noah Hanson and Rocky Hollywood? He took advantage of a bad situation and climbed the ladder to retrieve the championship. He didn’t force Noah to tap out. He didn’t knock Noah out. He couldn’t have pinned his shoulders to the canvas. He climbed a damn ladder. Yet, my victory over Hanson was not enough to make the history books? LOOK AT ME! I am a fucking monster and the whites of my eyes see no sympathy… there is no mercy… or remorse I have for anybody who dares steps inside my ring. Just like Noah Hanson has fallen, so will the Beast, Sexy Jason, and you…. Jason Price!”
Jason tips his head down and snarls as he twitches his eyes while staring ruthlessly at the cameraman.
“Living Legend” Jason Phoenix : “Let me ask you two one thing: do you think you’re fit to survive this bloodstain battle? Sexy Jason, you opened up everybody’s eyes on your last performance in which you proved to be incapable of beating Ice and Drake Knight, which resulted in the Jason’s losing their tag team championships. You proved you were no more than your brother’s keeper. You were comfortable living in your brother’s shadows and without your brother you have absolutely nothing. You should consider it gold that you were able to hold onto those tag team titles for as long as you have because Sexy Jason is no longer going to be a factor in any other division, let alone the tag team division. You fall over and over again. Every time your team loss, it was because of your ineffectiveness. You were the weakest link in that team and if it wasn’t for the brotherhood that bonds you and Jason Price, I could see your brother washing his hands of you. Jason Price needs you. He needs you because he knows what is at stake. What is at stake is his livelihood. You know, I wouldn’t put it pass him to make his way down to the ring during this match. He wants to do everything in his power to stop me. He wants to weaken me for our showdown. There is no weakening the Phoenix because as I have said time and time again… THE PHOENIX NEVER DIES; it will always rise from the ashes!”
He kneels down as he starts to slide his hand through the soil of the floor. He raises his hands, clenched into fists, and he starts to let the soil rain from his fingers. He snarls as he looks up and a bizarre smile comes across his face.
“Living Legend” Jason Phoenix : “Sexy Jason, even though there will be no victory in your near future, especially against the likes of me, but I still cannot forget the Beast. I can’t take my eyes off of him to focus on you because that is where the Beast thrives. The Beast thrives on opportunities and that is one opportunity I am not going to give to the Beast. Whether this turns into a handicap match against me or not is going to be absolutely irrelevant. Teaming up with the enemy to take on the next big thing in NAW will not be the most ridiculous idea two men have ever thought about doing. Look at what Noah Hanson and James Edwards managed to accomplish when they did it. They defeated Rocky Hollywood and me, but never did they get a clean victory over me. I was outside the ring with Noah Hanson while Rocky Hollywood fell to James Edwards. They beat Rocky. This is what happens when people come together…. Sometimes. I am all for the potential of this becoming a two on one because it will only make Jason Price more aware of exactly what I can do inside the ring. It will only make me a greater threat for his Legacy Championship. But before I get too off track… I have some final words for the Beast.”
He leans up as he sits on his knees in the soil. He slides his hands down his face with dirt stains being left on his face.
“Living Legend” Jason Phoenix : “Beast, I know Sexy Jason’s resolution was a victory over you and me, but what was yours? What were you hoping for the outcome of the first NAW’s Meltdown? I can only imagine since you are so locked into your own little existence. I can assure if your resolution is anything like Sexy Jason, you will have failed right out of the gate. Beast, you need to go back into the history of this company and study each and every single mistake you have ever made when you stepped foot in the squared circle. Not just against me, but against Jason Price. You won’t be able to advance more than second best until you have uncovered the truth. The truth of what you are inside and the true power you possess. Beast, as long as you try to compete on my level—the longer it will take for you to advance to a true beast. The more you drink vodka… the more time you waste… all that is working against you, Beast. It is preventing you from living out your true potential, but you have lacked real leadership in your life. You need a leader who will help you stride to be better than you are right now. Until you admit you are weak on your own, you are always going to be in my shadows. You will only be capable of dreaming and those dreams will shatter each and every time you try to succeed at achieving them. I pity you because you are no more than a pitiful excuse of a man. I pity you because you are not intelligent enough to know your limitations. Your body is at their limits. You have reached the furthest you can go on your own. You will be pushed back to the bottom of the ladder after this Meltdown and spend the rest of 2017 trying to get back to the top! While you are yearning your way up that ladder, I am going to be the next Legacy Champion!”
He places the palm of his hands behind him on the soiled wall. He lifts himself up to his feet and he scowls over at the cameraman. Once up to his feet, he lowers his hands down to his waist and begins circling them as he is pretending the Legacy title is already implemented there.
“Living Legend” Jason Phoenix : “The bottom line is this Beast and Sexy Jason, there is no changing the fact I am the number one contender. Rightfully so, I deserve to be the number one contender. During the passing of this company from Harris to Hayes, I lost a very earned shot at the Horizon Championship and to validate the wrongdoing that was against me, Hayes did the best possible thing by granting me the number one contender. At Holiday’s Fear, there was not a championship match between Jason Price and myself, but instead the Beast chose to cash in his briefcase in hopes to be the new Legacy Champion. However, my championship is going to be the first Legacy title match of 2017 and 2017 will witness a new champion crowned! Right now, on the first episode of the new year, it is going to be the living legend who starts off with a bang. It is going to be the living legend who slowly steals the spotlight from the main event of the evening. It is going to be my arm raised in victory as the world gets a GREAT glimpse of the unbeatable PHOENIX!”
He licks his lips as he starts to nod. He starts to walk toward the cameraman as the man backtracks up the steps, but inadvertently stumbles down on the steps as he continues to film. As Jason Phoenix stands behind the curtains, he pulls them close as the scene fades to black.
