Combat
went off of the air with a bang Friday night, giving us a huge hint as
to what to expect this week. And the one match that nobody can help but look forward
to is The Global Championship. PG-13, Crush and Caleb Scott, three men that want the same thing.
Our scene opens up inside of some
sort of bar and grill. We see a orange ball with a 1 on it roll right at the
camera. We pan up and watch the ball roll into the corner pocket. Then we see
PG-13, playing a nice game of pool in this empty, smoky, bar.
" The Destroyer " PG-13: " Caleb , my man..The clock is ticking on your Global Championship reign. "
It
sounds as if The Destroyer is talking to someone, but nobody
is there.
" The Destroyer " PG-13 : "
I am tired of waiting for my time to come in this company. Now, I’m going to take it..
"
He
stands up and chalks the end of his pool stick, eyeballing the table, looking
for a shot.
" The Destroyer " PG-13
: "
I came here.....for one reason.....And that is to add....to the death toll.
"
THWACK!
Another ball sent into the corner.
" The Destroyer " PG-13
: "
Jack and Tex found out a few weeks ago what I was capable of.. Just as others have. Just as my brother has. In order to win a world championship, I broke my brother’s neck and abducted his wife. So, you can only imagine the type of pain and agony you’re in for.
"
He stands up, still not having
made eye contact with the camera yet, focusing on his pool table.
" The Destroyer " PG-13
: "
Now,
don't call me a hypocrite. I've said it once, and I'll say it again. IIW isn't
ran on luck, chance, or statistics. It's ran on talent, desire, skill. But ol'
Caleb Scott here, you've got everything working.. AGAINST YOU! You don't have
the skill, the talent, desire. And statistics give me a 100% chance of winning.
"
He walks over and sets up for
another shot, leaning on the table.
" The Destroyer " PG-13
: "
So
in this match, there's no way you can win, CALEB . And, to be honest,
.. I wouldn't let you win. I can't be seen losing
to a guy who needs help to get the job done. This Friday, I'm going
to take you straight to hell. Because for one, I am the Best in this business. Something you wish you could be.. something you will never be.
Secondly, It’s your Title that I want. I usually get what I want. And
on Friday, I've got no choice, but to do it again. I have no option. You WON'T
escape with a victory.. and that isn't an opinion, that isn't a
warning, that's a damn fact! Because, Let me explain something to you. I AM a lot of things. I am everything that I say I am. But the one thing that I definitely am not, is a good guy. So if you feel like fuckin with The Destroyer, then,
CALEB , I'm standing right here.
"
He hits the ball, and it goes off
the wall into a pocket.
" The Destroyer " PG-13
: "
If
you feel like coming down that ramp, looking through the ropes, and seeing
MY face.. then by all means, climb into that ring. If you think you'll get
lucky.. and maybe squeeze out a victory, go for it. Try your luck, see if you're
any better than everybody else. I've beaten the best of
the best, CALEB , and you..
You haven't touched anything I've done. You've only been here in awhile. Maybe
it hasn't set in.. maybe you.. don't understand.
"
He walks off camera, his voice can
still be heard.
" The Destroyer " PG-13
: "
Everybody
in IIW knows who runs the show. Everybody in TV land knows who's the big dog.
Everybody.. except you. Because you, AARON , you've built up with ego inside of
your brain that, for some reason, leads you to think you're the best.
YOU HAVENT DONE ANYTHING!! So, I don't know what's inside fueling you to
believe you're the same man you were then, because quite frankly, you're
not..
"
He steps back into view,
" The Destroyer " PG-13
: "
This..
this is what lets me KNOW I'm still the best thing in a wrestling
ring today. And you AARON , you haven't been here long enough to realize it. I'm
not the same man. I'm
not the same man as I was a few months ago. This is a new time. And
you're not going to like it. Because now, I KNOW I'm better than you. I
don't have to go around, ranting and raving non-stop like you. I am the Destroyer. And.. AARON .. I'm beast.. of the IIW. So go ahead, tell your stories about being Champion.. because that's all they
are.. are stories. You'll never live to tell about it AARON . You never have.. and never will.
Especially not while I'm sitting high and mighty on this throne in IIW..
"
He smirks.
" The Destroyer " PG-13
: "
AARON ,
you may think that you're better.. Sleeping
in the back of your run down pile of shit car, living life day to day on a very
poor basis.. you may think that is cold.. harsh.. cruel. If you do think so,
which I'm sure you do, you're in for one hell of an awakening on Friday. I
am cold.. I am harsh.. I am the most hostile man in IIW.. ever. What I am is intimidation, personified. I AM INTIMIDATION! I'M THE VERY WORD! Except one small difference,
what I say, I do. I don't lie week-in and week-out. If I say I'm going to beat
Caleb Scott and become the greatest Champion the ring will
ever see.. I'll do it. I get the job done every damn time without fail, and
that.. that is what makes me feared.
"
He slams his fist down, causing
his water bottle to jump up from the table.
" The Destroyer " PG-13
: "
I'm
not feared for stapling my opponents' head or getting thrown onto a stretcher
just to walk back in and get my ass whooped. I'm feared for actually doing
things. Accomplishing things, and backing my claims.
Doing all that stuff, living on the edge, whatever you call it.. That doesn’t make you a star, that makes you a glutton for punishment. It makes you a weak, defenseless
man that gets his ass handed to him on a silver platter every time he steps through those ropes and thinks that the rest of the world is naive enough to consider that to be “legendary”.
You think the world is grieving over the fact you've been receiving pain for
years and years, as opposed to inflicting it? You think any human being that
walks the planet earth gives a crap about your miserable life? THEY DON'T!
And if you think your life is miserable now.. wait until after Theater of War.
"
In an attempt to calm himself
down, he pauses.
" The Destroyer " PG-13
: "
After
Theater of War, you won't be miserably walking the earth, trying to find your true
calling.. because I will bring it to you. I will take the wool form over your
eyes and show you the light. You're not miserable, CALEB , not yet. Because you
have yet to step into the ring with the new and improved, Beast of IIW.. PG-13. After Theater of War, you'll truly be miserable.. and
maybe you'll get some of the attention.. love.. and grievance you've been trying
to get all along. Because you'll be eating and breathing out of something
different than your disgraceful mouth, but out of tubes. You may have thought
that to get some attention, you needed to win. But.. you can't. You don't have to win to get noticed Caleb , you just
have to lose to the right people.. and on Friday.. I'll make sure that happens.
In the only fashion I can do it. I'm not going to throw you some sort of pity
party for having a piss poor life. I'm going to Theater of War to do one thing.. flat out annihilate
you.
"
" The Destroyer " PG-13
: " And
you will plead for the bell to ring.. and you will beg for mercy.. and I will
give NONE! You will be disposed of, once and for all. Face it CALEB , you're
pathetic.. you're a disgrace. You're sickening to watch. Not because you always
manage to suck the life outta everything, but because you're trying to be me. The Destroyer.. and if you ever were to compare tapes.. you'd see that
your tired, lame, and pathetic ass is NOTHING like The Destroyer. There's not even
a shimmer of relativity. You'll never be what I am.. you never were what I was.
You may think you're special, but that's only inside your head. I guess the Easter Bunny must be feeding you that information right?
Because you're not better than any scumbag I've crossed paths with yet. NOBODY
is better than me.. NOBODY is even up to my standards. And you, CALEB .. or
whatever.. you're not even close to being one of those nobody's. In case you've forgotten my friend, If you need a glimpse into what i'm capable of....I’ve beaten better.. I have CRIPPLED men that were far better than you, Caleb ..
"
He slumps down and laughs..
" The Destroyer " PG-13
: "
What makes you think that you can do now what they couldn’t do then? Don't bullshit yourself. If there was anyway you could possibly beat me,
don't you think you would've figured it out already? But then, you're not exactly the type of person to catch onto things
quickly. So I'm gonna spell it out for you as easily as I possibly can, CALEB .
Friday Night, in front of thousands, Theater of War signifies the end of your VERY short reign as Global Champion.
You will pay Friday night, once more ... and this time around, you can mark my words,
come hell or high water for you it will be.. CAREER OVER!
"
He
grabs the 8 ball from the table.
" The Destroyer " PG-13
: "
AARON ,
I'm
going to retire you ON THEATER OF WAR; you're like that limping dog that follows it's master
around and just wont die; You think you're crazy, if you were crazy, you wouldn't be in this match; it comes down to two factors; temperament and ability.. you may
have temperament.. but you don't have ability..
And I, I have the ability. You know damn well. And AARON , you have gotten lucky.
You’re still able to walk around on your own… even if you are a loser.
And it will be no different on Friday. And there won't be a next time. After
this, AARON , You will have seen your final day. No more bullshit, no more games.. Aaron.. NOTHING! You hear me? Do me a favor,
to make things more interesting. Keep lying to yourself. Keep making yourself believe.. that I won't take every precaution necessary to
kick your ass from the very top of the ramp.. all the way down.. to your
resting spot.. in HELL! And I will do it because I want to.. because I can..
because I need to.. and because I Am The Destroyer.. And I Am THE BEST DAMN WRESTLER IN THE WORLD!
"
With that, PG tosses the 8 ball
into the air, and walks away. Our cameras remain focused as it lands in a
pocket. The entire table, cleared. Fade out.. static.
