[The camera fades in on Candy Mayne standing in the back locker room area with a microphone in hand. The whistling and cheering from the houseshow crowd in the distance can be heard. Candy flatteringly smiles and raises the microphone to her lips.]
- Candy -
Ladies and gentlemen, on Adrenaline, we say a main event unlike any other. Three teams went head to head for the chance to move on to fight for the most prestiege championship in the wrestling buisness...The Emperors Crown Championship. Though each man gave it their all, only one team came out on top and they will go on to face each other at "Heir To The Throne". I speak of course of "The King Of The X Division", RICHY!
[The crowd in the background gives a little bit of a mixed reaction, due mostly to Richy's decent into his heel-like persona.]
- Candy -
And the man considered to be "Simply Untouchable", TONY TRAN!
[The crowd erupts into a frenzy at just the mere mention of his name. After the crowd silences back down, Candy continues on.]
- Candy -
Now after hearing Richy's just the other day, many questions have arrisen. So here to answer some of these questions and put in a few words of his own, please welcome, Tony Tran!
[Tran steps into the scene dressed in his normal street clothes. The crowd in the background goes crazy and start to chant his name.]
- Candy -
Tony, thanks fo---
[Tran quickly covers her mouth with his hand and silences her. He puts his hand onto her shoulder.]
- Tran -
Not talking. Just...listen...
[Candy gives an odd look and Tran just closes his eyes and takes some deep breaths.]
- Tran -
See, that there Candy is what makes it all worth it. That there is how guys like me can go out there, break our bodies in half, and then walk backstage with a smile on our face. When you've got the crowd on your side, you've got all the momentum you need. Now I'm sure you've got questions lined up for me regarding Richy's statements. Well yes, I did happen to catch those, and it is a little troubling. Richy's a good guy, hell, he's a great guy. He an awesome wrestler and he has the passion for this business as strong as anyone I've seen. But what I started to see just the other night while he was talking, it really bothered me. Richy one of the best, anyone can clearly see that. He's going places and people will remember him for a long time. But he just turned down a bad path. He's letting his fear overpower his passion. What do I mean by that? Look at what he's done. He started as a jobber in the WWCF. He went on to be a multi-time X Division Champion. He even was given the name "The King of The X Division". He started here as a fresh face that no one really knew. He came here with people looking down on him because he still carries WWCF gold into the arena week after week. And yet with all that stress and all that pressure on him, he rose to the top and know he has a chance to become the Emperors Crown Champion. Could you imagine what kind of toll that might take on him if he were to, in a manner, "drop the ball"? It would eat away at him like you couldn't imagine. So now he is putting aside the pride and passion he has for the game and substituting it with fear and anger and greed. He is terrified that if he loses, he'll only ever been known as the second best in the Empire.
- Candy -
Does...does that mean you may take it easy on him or something in the match?
[Tran just looks at her like a monkey doing a math problem.]
- Tran -
Are you nuts, honey? I'm not going to take it easy on anyone that is gonna tear themselves apart from the inside out. See, I only worry about Richy's new persona because I've become an end product of that path. I've let greed and fear take the best of me, and it nearly killed my career. I was an Untouchable, and I hurt people week after week. I ended careers and I shattered dreams. Why? Because I was afraid that if I stopped to make an impact for just a single moment...then no one would ever remember me. Thats what this is all about, Candy. Its about becoming history. We all want to go down in history for something, and winning the grandest prize of them all will definetely take care of that. So Richy, if you wanna get mad, if you wanna push my buttons, then you better prepare yourself for something you have NEVER experianced before. You've faced countless of people, but you've never faced anyone like me before! I take your fears and your worries and I make them real. Your afraid that you'll drop the ball? I'll make you drop that ball. Your afraid of becoming second best? I'm going to make sure that your second best! You talk to me about how your hungry and how you'll do anything for this win, but you don't know a thing. You don't know what its like to be nipping at the heels of the history books. You don't know what its like to only be only last inch from the top of the mountain. I have put more of my self into what I do in that ring than anyone else! You ask me what I'm willing to do? I gave up my family for my career! I lost my wife! I lost my closest family! I lost my little brother! And why? Because I put every ounce of my life into that ring and this company.
[By this time, Candy has gotten a little uncomfortable and slowly makes her way out of the scene, but Tran doesn't even notice and keeps his fierce gaze aimed at the camera.]
- Tran -
I have sacrificed more than I had just to make it by, and you want to tell me that you don't think I'm ready to do what it takes? You have a family to go home to Richy, and I wouldn't have second thoughts about shattering every single bone in your body; thats how far I'd go. You have an astounding career ahead of you here, and I'd put out the light in a heartbeat; thats how far I'd go. I want you to look back at what I've done to people and why I did it to them. I hurled Vince McMahon off of a building. Why? Because I just felt like it. I buried Shane-O-Mac alive! Why? Because I thought it would be fun. If I'm willing to do things of that nature with no material prize at the end of it all, what do you honestly think I won't do to you to win that championship? You think your the first person to ever tell me that they have more passion and motivation? Everyone I've ever met in that ring has told me that, and none of them have ever proven it to be true. I've got years of blood, sweat, tears, fears, broken bones, and misery that drive me to claim what is rightfully mine. For so long, I've dreamed of taking that championship home with me, and every chance I had to even get close to that oppertunity was cut short. I have an unimaginable amount of motivation that will drive me to put an end to the questions and the doubts. I will become the next Emperors Crown Champion, and I'll do by standing over your bloody and beaten body.
[He closes his eyes and takes a few deep breaths. When he opens them back up, all the rage and fury that was once there seems to have disappeared.]
- Tran -
Richy, you've been a great friend these last couple weeks, but when it comes down to it, there is no rooms for friends here. I'm sorry that people will only talk to you about how great of a team we were. I'm sorry that don't ask about your individual accomplishments. But there is no room for hurt feelings and jealousy here. I will tell you this right now, and listen to it very, very carefully. If you don't keep your wits about you in this match...I'm going to end this dream of yours....
[He looks into the camera with a near emotionless expression on his face. His eyes seem to pierce right through the camera, as if they could really see Richy himself. The sounds of the microphone being dropped to the floor sends a rush of static through the air and the Tran just turns around and walks off of the set. The camera slowly fades away as it follows him through the halls until he disappears around a corner. The scene comes to a close.]
[The camera fades in on the inside the back of a limo. The camera is moving around wildly and something sounds as if its hitting the microphone build in. Finally, the camera spins around and we see Tony Tran recording himself with his own video camera; a friend of his along with him.]
- Tran -
Evening ladies and gents, and welcome to Moneybags TV! This is none other than the Million Dollar Dream himself along with my good friend and loyal limo driver, Stevie. Say hello to the nice people, Stevie.
- Stevie -
[horribly butchering a british accent] 'Ello everyone! And how might you all be?
- Tran -
Yeah, moving on. We were on our way back to the hotel for a big party later tonight, but we pulled over to a Burger King and here we are, four Whoopers later. I've just been thinking all day long about how I attacked Richy so mercilessly. I admitt I was a little upset and let my temper get the best of me. I really don't like being so serious all the time. So here I am to apologize and to set everything straight...ahem...Richy, you have gone from being a totally awesome friend to a greedy nutjob. I mean, what was with the whole snapping thing back there? Thats not you at all. Your the calm and witty chap; you were our team's Dr. Jeykll and I was the incredibly good looking, high rollin', hottie snatchin' Mr. Hyde. Now we can't all get crazy over a little title now, can we? I know you want to win and its pretty obvious that I want to win. So how about we just settle this like I've settled everything else... you step into that ring on sunday and I beat ten kinds of hell out of you so quick, the doctors will have to untwist your spine just so they can screw your head back on. Yes, that was a longer, more wordy version of the "so fast it'll make your head spin" phrase.
- Stevie -
Ooooh! Now I get it! Good one man...
- Tran -
Shut up Stevie...anywho, moving on. You've gone and lost your mind Richy. Your trying to pick a fight with a man that you know could completely pick you apart piece by piece. I am the greatest competition you will ever know, so you need to hunt down that brain of yours, plug it back in, and think up a new plan pretty damn quick. We may have been good friends and the best tag team this place has seen, but thats not gonna stop me from knocking those teeth down your throat. I don't want to come across as mean to you, but it seems like this will be the only way we can get it through to you. I am just that much better than you, Rich. You put heart and passion into your matches, but I put that much more into mine. You talk up a storm and put on awesome promos. But I turn up the heat in mine just that much more. You can claw and claw your way up, but no matter who you are, when you make it to me, I'll kick you right back down to the bottom. Its not arrogance buddy, its the truth, and deep down you know it. So please, think things through before you say them. Don't question my motivation. Don't question my passion. Just know that when the time comes, I'll be bringing hell to you in the form of a complete ass-kicking.
[Tran turns the camera around as if he is about to turn it off but then whips it back around quickly.]
- Tran -
Oh, and there was something else I wanted to say. But this one goes out to the boys that ended up on the losing end of the match this saturday. Tank, Hollywood, Scorpion, and Pizza Boy. I know you guys are gonna be fighting it out like crazy to get that number one contender's shot, but don't fight too hard. Because since you will be facing me for the championship next month, I want you to be able to have the entire month to prepare yourself for another humiliating defeat. Like I told Richy, you can keep climbing up all you want, but I'm just gonna plant a boot in your face and push you right back down the ladder. So keep your chins up boys and be sure to keep your pride soaring, because once your win leads you to men, I'm gonna use your pride to wipe up whats ever left of you after I obliterate you once and for all. Best of luck, gents. Moneybags TV is out!
[Tran reaches forward and covers the lens of the camera. Finally the camera shuts off and we see nothing but static. The scene comes to a close.]
