TJ Black is motionless shrouded in darkness with nothing but the faint light of the windows showing his face. No emotion even flashes across the empty eyes of Black. He begins to speak and even less emotion is in his voice…
TJ Black: Last week I was so close. So damn close to beating Noah Hanson for the TV Title and finally shutting Hanson’s goddamn mouth. Then Johnny Razor surfaced… Johnny Razor cost me the ICT Television Championship and then he proceeded to spout the biggest load of bullshit. Yeah I was broken, battered and injured. Heck no one leaves a Ladder Match and his 100% the following week and Razor knows that and I am in fact expecting him to go after my injuries. But first I would like to just state that I am here not for the money. Sure I needed more money I was heading up shitcreek and I was needed of a paddle. But I found more than a paddle. I found friends, support, fans… family. That’s what each and every one of you guys out there are to me. Each and every man, woman and child in that audience on Wednesday, that will be in that audience on the 8th November and everyone who will be watching at home is a part of my new family. My old one they turned their backs on me when I needed them the most but the fans. The fans were the ones turned to and found comfort, safety, support. More than a shoulder to cry on, more than a pawn in a chess game and certainly more than a means for me to get rich! Heck I’m still not rich. How much do you REALLY think we get paid for on this up and coming show? We get fewer viewers than WWE, ROH and TNA. We are new on the scene of mainstream wrestling, but our fans offer more than any WWE, ROH, TNA fan or even any member of the Internet Wrestling Community could. They offer not only support but guidance. You see they ask and we deliver. That is exactly why each and every week I put my body on the line. Why I will arrive in 9 days at the 8th ever episode of ICW Saturday Night Showdown. That is why I will not no-show the event because I “Can’t be arsed”. The fans in attendance will have paid in full to watch TJ Black knock Johnny Razor’s teeth down his goddamn throat. The fans in attendance will want to see the heel get his ass kicked and I will not let them down and I hope for your sake Johnny boy that you don’t. You see I’ve been involved with wrestling since 2000. Sure there was a little hiccup along the way when I broke someone’s neck but I was at the top of my game. I was on the road to becoming the World Heavyweight Champion at the next PPV and yet my anger got the way. Now I would be more than happy if that rage would stay dead and buried but you seem to have different ideas. You Johnny have it in your head that you can get under my skin, attack me after a match and spout more BS than every government is this world. But this will come back to haunt you. My past is a shadowy you’re right, but if… when my shadowy past gets put in front of the spotlight like you are attempting to do Razor so does that rage, that frustration…
TJ Black steps out of the darkness and into the light, intensity becomes the only word to describe TJ as the cold and dead wreck fades away and the anger surfaces once more…
TJ Black: Johnny Razor you do not want to awaken what’s been dead and buried for more than 7 years! You do not want to see how dangerous, how brutal, how intense, how relentless and how destructive I am when I enter an environment where its legal for me to injure you. When there is no law… no rules stopping me from ending your career! Where deaths are always wrote of as accidents!
TJ Black laughs as a smirk crosses his face. The anger has been vented and the rage disappears as if it was never existent in the first place. Now replace with a calm and peaceful look of relaxation. TJ Black speaks once more…
TJ Black: Johnny Razor take heed of this advice: shut your goddamn mouth before it leads you down a dark route where there is no escape, where you will not escape. You call yourself a Badass and that’s true you are one of the most… impressive athletes I have ever trained. But you know how the saying goes: “I brought you into this world, and I can take you out of it!” Shame really… You had potential. A physique most men dream of. A charisma only matched by the greatest of all men. A future of unparalleled brightness. You could’ve… would’ve made a great World Champion one day and if you had beaten me to that goal I would have praised you, respected you. Now however… I’m going to humiliate you. Sunday the eighth of November is the date in which I finally enter the ring with you. One… on… one and I will ensure that when I pin you that you have no excuses. No more lies you can tell. In nine days I will end this once and for all. This is your one shot Johnny you’ve been running your mouth for the past month and it will all be proven to be nothing but you blowing smoke out your ass if you lose. I hope you recognise the mistakes you are making and wake up from this trance, this alternate reality where you believe you can take on the old me, the easily enraged me, the mentally unstable me. Nobody would want to see that now… would they?
TJ Black just smirks before continuing…
TJ Black: When you lose at SNS 8 in a tournament with the World Title being the spoils for the victor against your mentor do not-
Intensity once again crosses his face and anger once again resurfaces…
TJ Black: And I mean don’t you ever dare think about screwing me out of this title! For ten years I claimed that the title meant nothing, that it was prop to life, that it was meaningless and served no real purpose… And you were right, I lied. For once you didn’t! Ever since I retired that young upstart accidentally I have never been able to forgive myself! Not just because I screwed that guy out of an amazing career, but because I screwed myself out of the chance to become World Heavyweight Champion. Hell yeah it’s selfish but that’s life. Sometimes you got to think about yourself and everybody in attendance at every house show, live tour and Showdown episode, each fan watching at home and everyone in the back knows just how important the World Title is. To know you made it to the top is the greatest feeling you will ever have… The greatest I will ever. Knowing that all this pain, abandonment and desperation was actually leading somewhere is enough to make it all worthwhile. These fans are worth every single second of my life but that championship is the icing on the cake. The real reason… the only reason and way that this… detour down a bottomless pit will be worth it. I left wrestling because I was scared I would injure or even kill somebody else. I was afraid and I sought guidance from family, from friends and from relationships but all I got was pain, humiliation, misery and regret. The world of wrestling turned out to be the one place that ever cared for me. These fans are the only people who care about me. You want to state a bunch of bullshit about how I don’t care, about how each and every wrestler be it indy, professional or amateur only does this for the money and doesn’t care about these fans the ones who not only sign pay check but yours! Fine go ahead I don’t give a shit but I do want to kick your ass, I do want to become World Champion and I CERTAINLY want to prove to each and every fan that I care!
Black once again calms down with a wave of relaxation seemingly passing over his body.
I love each and every member of the ICW Nation; Each fan, each cameraman, each soundman, each technician, each announcer and each man and woman in charge of this company because they are what makes this possible, they are responsible for this show airing, for us getting to go out there and tear it up night in and night out. They are the ones solely responsible for making our lives worth something. Without them we lead a life of nothingness, a life of poverty… a life of self-destruction. These fans make this possible and I would like to thank each and every fan out there right now. Say I kiss up but I don’t care. Say I am attempting to be the next Cena, the next Hogan or even the next Rock I couldn’t give a damn because it’s the truth. The fans are the ones who we need to show respect to and if you tried it even once Razor you might actually get some back. You could’ve been the greatest World Champion in history, and now? Now you lose out on that chance because of me: the man who built up to be the greatest force of nature anyone ever seen. I trained you to be the best and somewhere along the line I failed. I failed because you still don’t understand the fact that without the support of the fans, without good friends in the back you cannot survive in this business. You made the fatal mistake of becoming my enemy and I will ensure that I teach you a lesson that you will never forget. If I fail you better be prepared for the consequences kid because if you continue your little campaign against me you will inevitably piss me off and it will only end badly for you and will only do that because you forced it to. This is your choice Johnny. If… when I beat next Saturday you can either: Forget any of this ever happened and continue with your career, or alternatively you can keep running your mouth and I can follow through with each and every single threat I made to you in the last 10 minutes. It’s your choice Razor just be happy with the one you make because it will drastically alter the rest of your goddamn life. Johnny Razor next Saturday you reach a fork in the road. One leads to success, money, championships and great health the other leads to pain, misery, injury and you will become nothing. The balls in your court Razor, this is TJ Black’s final word before we collide, see ya on the 8th…
