'The Crippler' Chris Benoit: Trish, why do you keep watching that match over and over again?
'The Blond Bombshell' Trish Stratus: Chris, I just cant believe the hell that you and Raven both went through in this match. I mean the two of you gave it your all.
'The Crippler' Chris Benoit: Your damn right I gave it my all Trish, I give my all in every single one of my matches here, and if you have not noticed that then Trish, you have not been watching close enough. And ya, I hate to admit it but raven did give his all too, and ya, he almost won a few times, but you see, almost will never get you the win, the only thing that means you have won is when you are there getting your hand raised by the ref and when your music hits over The PA. And that is exactly what happened to me. It was not Ravens music that was heard, it was not Ravens hand that was raised, it was mine, and he better not forget that. And I hate to admit this, but once again I have a respect for Raven, because I have once again been in a match with him that nobody else in The XWF can give. He is the only one in The XWF who can give me a run for my money like that, and as much as I hat eto admit that I will. And once again I respect him, even after all that he has done to me, and after all he has tried to do. I know the only reason he did it was because hw as afraid that he would have to face me once again and have what happened to him happen again, but there is nothing in The XWF that will stop me from my goal of getting to teh top. Not Raven, not anything. I could get attacked day in and day out from behind, haveing people try to end my career, but what they fail to realize is that it just makes me stronger, and making me stronger is a big mistake because when you do that, I just get more pissed off and get more motivation. And Raven has found that out, and anyone else who wants to try it can go ahead, I welcome them, because it will just lead to them getting an ass kicking just like Raven did on Smackdown, and just like Tazz and Edge will tonight on Raw.
'The Blond Bombshell' Trish Stratus: I hate to say this Chris, but do you actually think that in the condition you are in that you can win tonight?
'The Crippler' Chris Benoit: Trish, the fact that you doubt my ability to win a match at anytime just makes me laugh. You know as well as I do that on any given night I can beat anyone here in The XWF, there is no one that matches my skill, sure, people liek Kurt Angle can go around bragging about the fact that he won gold in The 1996 Olympics, but who the hell really cares, that means shit all here in The XWF, and what good ahs that done him so far? Nothing. Sure he may be the champ here, but what have his gold medals done him? Absolutely nothing. And the only reason that I am not XWF Champ right now is because of the fact that I was held dwn by Raven, I have explained that time and again, and I am tired of explaining it so I am not going to go around trying to explain it again, the only thing I have to say is that Trish. Tazz and Edge, I know that Tazz is tough, I know that he may give me a run for my money, but who the hell does Edge think he is? He is one person who I do not worry about at all, he may be The TV Champ, but he is going to lose that title to me tonight just as fast as he won it from RVD. I hope Edge realizes this though, I hope he realizes the fact that title is not going to be around his waist for much longer, as he has run into the biggest challenge to date for him in The XWF, and that is The Rabid Wolverine, and I am not going to just let him walk past me with the greatest of ease, I am going to do everything I can to stop him. Sure, I may be hurt, but that has never stopped me once before from winning a match, and it sure as hell will not stop me tonight. And as much as I may be doubted on this, I will win tonight and there is no chance anyone will stop me.
'The Blond Bombshell' Trish Stratus: Well Chris, just try not to let them know you are hurt too bad or they are both going to capitolize and you will wind up losing the match.
'The Crippler' Chris Benoit: Dont you worry one bit about me losing this match tonight Trish, because there is no chance in hell that I will lose. You and me both know that, Tazz and Edge both know that, the whole world knows that. And as much as I will be doubted tonight, as much as the odds will be against me after the beating myself and Raven both gave each other on Smackdown, the fact still remains the same that I am The Crippler, hell I proved it on Raw by crippling Raven, and I will prove it once again tonight by crippler Edge and Tazz. I will show them exactly what it is like to be in The XWF, and I will give them a nice beating that they will never forget the whole time that they are here. It does not matter who I take out first and hwo I take out second, it does not matter to me who I hurt worse, all I care about is hurting both of them just like I did to Raven, all I care about is making them scream, and when it is all said and done my hand will be raised, and when the ref hands me that Television Title. After the match is over I will continue to beat on Tazz and Edge, I will continue to give them each a severe and vicious beating that will show them that The Rabid Wolverine is exactly that and shows now mercy for anyone and will do whatever it takes to win a match and whatever it takes to cripple someone. And Trish, I could go out there with crutches and have my knee taped up, have my arm in a brace and Tazz and Edge would both be too stupid to even notice, they would not be able to capitolize on anything. They could be hunting and see a moose lying there on the ground sleeping and they would just walk past it thinking it was allready dead. So as far as you worrying about them being able to capitolize on me being hurt, dont bother worrying about it because there is no way that they will. Now Trish, Im going to go see Mr McMahon about something, you coming or staying?
'The Blond Bombshell' Trish Stratus: I might as well come, I have nothing better to do anyways.
With that Chris Benoit and Trish Stratus both get up and they walk out of their locker room and walk down the halls and start looking for Vince McMahons office. Once they find it they knock and they hear a voice from inside telling them to come inside. Once they open the door they see Vince McMahon on the phone sitting on a couch, when he sees who it is he stops talking for a minute then starts again.
'The Owner' Vince McMahon: Ya, Ill call you back in a few.... Well Well Well. If it isnt Chris Benoit and Trish Stratus, what an unexpected visit. And what do I owe this.. pleasure to?
'The Crippler' Chris Benoit: Well Vince, I just want to thank you.
'The Owner' Vince McMahon: Thank me for what?
'The Crippler' Chris Benoit: I want to thank you for finaly, after all the time that I have worked my ass off for you. After all the blood I have spilt and after all the bruises I have got. After all the near injuries that I have suffered. I want to thank you for finally getting off your damn ass and giving me a shot at a title, at any title. And I just have to say its about damn time that you did that too. Do you know how hard I worked to get up to The XWF? And when I got here you promised me that I would be treated as good as I deserved. And how have you treated me? You have booked me in match after match with people who dont even know how to wrestle. You have made me wrestle people who dont even belong here. And those are the people that wind up holding all the titles. The people with no skill, and Vince, as much as you dont like it, that is about to change, because starting tonight, after I go and destroy Edge and Tazz and take that Television Title, it is only going to be the beggining of many titles that I hold here in The XWF, as much as you may want to try and stop me, you cant, because you damn well know jyst as much as I do that I am the best damn technical wrestler in this business and I deserve a little bit more respect than you and everyone else around here shows me.
'The Owner' Vince McMahon: Well, it appears that The Rabid Wolverine has finaly grown some balls and come to confront me. Well I congratulate you on that Chris, I congratulate you on after all this time finaly coming in here and trying to intimidate me. But Chris, do you know who I am? Do you have any idea who I am? IM VINCE MCMAHON DAMN IT! And no one talks to me like that. No one barges into my office and starts telling me how things are going to be run from now on here in The XWF. So Chris, who in the hell do you think you are doing that?
'The Crippler' Chris Benoit: Vince, you know exactly who I am. And you know exactly what I am capable of, and the fact that you want to to hold me down, tha fact that you dont want me to get to the top, because all your precious little ass kissers are up there, well guess what. As much as you try to stop it, it is going to happen. And you have yourself to blame for putting me in this Television Title match, because that is just going to be the first step up the ladder for me, and as I get higher, I will get closer to all your little ass kissing wreslers, and when I do that I will show them exactly what wrestling is all about, because the only reason they get where they are is by kissing your ass, and I however am going to be one person who gets up there without doing that, I am going to be the one person who does it by pure skill, with or without the fans. They dont matter to me at all, if they like me, great. If they dont, who cares? Because I sure as hell dont, so Vince, I hope you remember what I said here tonight, I hope you keep it in mind, because when I am at the top, holding The XWF Title and beating all those little bastards who have kissed your ass day in and day out will find out exactly why they call me The Crippler, because I will crippler them just like I did to Raven on Smackdown.
'The Owner' Vince McMahon: Okay Chris, you have said your bit, you have proven to the world that you have balls. Now get the hell out of my locker room, and I hoep tonight, that Tazz and Edge tear you apart just like you deserve to be. NOW GET OUT!!!
With that Chris Benoit and Trish Stratus walk out of Vince McMahons office and Chris slams the door as the camera catches Vinces face and he is furious. As they are walking Trish still seems surprised that Chris Benoit actually did what he did. When they get back to their dressing room. When they get in Chris Benoit starts stretching again as Raw is about to start in about ten minutes, Trish lets him starts and then she talks to him.
'The Blond Bombshell' Trish Stratus: Chris, what the hell was that all about?
'The Crippler' Chris Benoit: What the hell was that all about? You wanna know what the hell that was all about? You were there, you should know exactly what the hel it is about. I am just sick and tired of Vince McMahon treating me like one of those low level wrestlers that do nothing for the business. I am sick and tired of him booking me in matches that do nothing if I win, and nothing if I lose. And finally, he finally books me in a match that has some significance in my carreer so I am going to thank him. But then I realized I have absolutely nothing to thank him for, I owe him nothing. When he hired me here in The XWF he promised me he would treat me like I deserve to be treated, not booking me in low card matches every damn night. But Trish, after tonight, once I win that Television Title, once I prove to Vince McMahon that I deserve to be in The XWF more than anyone else, he will have no choice, as much as he hate sit to start to treat me with respect and put me in proper matches. Hell my match tonight is not veen good enough for me, but I am not goign to complain, because here in The XWF, gold means power, it does not matter what title it is, it means power. And after tonight, I will have the power and I will show Vince and the rets of the world exactly why I am here in The XWF, and exactly why I am going to kick everyones ass who gets in my way on my path to the top. And I will show no mercy to anyone.
'The Blond Bombshell' Trish Stratus: But Chris, how exactly will holding that title make you any more powerful here in The XWF?
'The Crippler' Chris Benoit: Trish, its simple. When someone holds the gold, people notice them, and when people notice them Vince McMahon has no choice but to let the people see them, and when you have gold you get better matches. And when I get better matches I will be able to prove to the world that I am the best damn technical wrestler in The XWF today, and when the people realize that they will want to see me even more, and then Vince will have no choice but to make me one of his main event wrestlers and no choice but to give me better title shots, as much as he may hate it, its the fact of life here in The XWF, and it is going to happen. And its going to happen sooner than anyone thinks it will. It is going to start tonight. And it is going to be at the expense of Tazz and Edge when they step into the ring with me. And when they step into the ring with me, the reality of it all will hit them. If they have listened to anything i have said over the last few days, it will hit them the second they walk into that ring. Because when they will be standing face to face with The Rabid Wolverine, they will get bit, and it will not be a warning bite either. I will be showing them exactly why that title will be mine. And why there is not one thing either of them can do about it. Now Trish, Im going out to the ring, you gonna come out there with me or not?
'The Blond Bombshell' Trish Stratus: Naw, you can go out there, I will just wait back here.
With that Chris Benoit gets up and leaves the dressing room. The scene cuts out to the main arena where all teh fans are and the pyros are going as Raw is about to start, and before Jim Ross and The King can even start to talk, The Raw Theme gets cut off by 'Whatever' as Chris Benoit appears from the top of the ramp and stands there and crosses his arms as he looks over the crowd and shakes his head and veeryone boos him and he just laughs. He slowly makes his way down the ramp, limping and hiding the fact that he is holding his ribs. he walks up the ring steps and into the ring and goes and gets a mic and then starts to talk immedietly before his music can even be cut off.
'The Crippler' Chris Benoit: Cut my damn music this instant! Now you all might be wondering why the hell I am coming out here so early in the show, wondering why the hell I am coming out here in the first place, because I know most of you dont even want to see me, or hear my voice, but you know what, there is no chance that you are going to escape that tonight, because I am coming out here and you all are going to listen to what I have to say weither you like it or not, so just sit all your asses down in your chairs and shut your mouths and listen. Now you know what, after Smackdown, after I was in that hellacious match with Rave, I thought of something, why the hell do I do what I do for a living? Why the hell do I put my body on the line night after night just to give you people a show? Just to give you people a show after you spend your hard earned money to see The XWF. Well I realized something, why the hell should I? So for now I am just going to sit out here and talk, and if you dont like it you can leave, but there is no chance in hell that you are going to stop me from saying what I have to say. Now there could be a match going on right now, but you see, I am not going to let that happen, because you all have to listen to what I have to say and you all better listen good. This means all of you in the crowd, and all of you in the back. Listen up good.
'The Crippler' Chris Benoit: Now on Smackdown I had a geruling match with Raven, a match that brought me back to the old WCW and ECW days, a match that I knew I would win, and sure enough, I won, just like I said I would. I damn near ended Ravens career, and in the process almost did the same to me, taking a bunch of stupid risks, and all for you people, and what do you people do? You boo me, after I put my life on the line for you every night. Well after that match, when I was sitting in the back thinking, I realized that I could care less about all of you, if you wanna boo me go right ahead, because I dont give a crap anymore about the fans. The only person I care about is me, Chris Benoit. And from now on I am the only person I am going to watch out for, and do anything for here in The XWF. Because the rest of you dont care. You fans all go around and cheer people who only get to The XWF by kissing Vince McMahons ass or something like that, well Im proud of all those people, they know how to kiss ass, but the question I put before them, is do they have any idea how to actually wrestle? Wel we all know the answer to that, if you kiss Vinces ass, who needs to know how to actually wrestle. I seem to be the only one here in The XWF with any skill at all and the only one who refuses to kiss Vinces ass to get to the top.
'The Crippler' Chris Benoit: The thing is though, tonight I have a match against Tazz and Edge for The Television Title, now I could have gone to the back and kissed Vinces ass to get help to win the match, but I refuse to, I am going to be the only person here who gets to the top of the mountain with pure skill. Seeing as I am the only one in The XWF with the skill to do it. There are probably some people in the back who disagree with what I say, but let me ask them all, have any of you actually gone through your career so far in The XWF without kissing ass? With using pure skill to win a match? I highly doubt it. I am the only one, and I will remain the only one because I will not sell out and kiss his ass. And tonight when I get in the ring with Edge and Tazz, I am going to show the two of them there is a difference between ass kissing, and a good old fashioned ass kicking, something that they will experience first hand from the hands of The Crippler. Tonight Tazz and Edge had better be ready for something that they have never experienced in their life, because I am going to show those two no mercy whatsoever. I am going to make sure that they suffer just like I have in the past in The XWF. I have been held back until now by not only Raven, but Vince McMahon, and now that I have broke free and am rising to the top Vince is getting mad, but I dont care, you see, this makes me happy. And he has probably allready given Tazz and Edge instruction to kick my ass worse than they need to just for his pleasure, but all I have to say is that I welcome the challenge. I have overcome every obstacle I have been given so far here in The XWF, and this will only be different for one reason. And that reason is that once I win tonight I will be walking out with The XWF Television Title. And there is nothing no one can do to stop this from happening here tonight. And I want Tazz and Edge to come out to the ring and try ti kick my ass, I want Tazz and Edge to come out to the ring and try to show me that they are better than I am and that they deserve to hold that title. But you see you guys, neither of you deserve to hold that title, I am the only one in this match that deserves that title and I will win it, and if you have a problem with that, PROVE ME WRONG!!!
