~The busy streets of Pittsburgh PA can be seen. It's 8 PM and the city is lit up like a Christmas Tree. Office buildings.. Stadiums.. Cars passing on the street.. Horns blowing.. People walking along side walks and along walkways on bridges. People moving in and out of restaurants, bars, and clubs. One person who's not doing any of this is currently standing on top of a local office building over looking all of the commotion down below. He's sporting a white t-shirt, blue jeans, fanny pack, and black gym shoes. All we can see is his back and what looks to be faint hints of short blonde hair. He's standing with his arms folded and looking into the night sky. Sounds of a cool breeze rips through the air as faint breathing is heard for a moment before the figure begins to speak.~
"In this business, I have seen many things unfold.. From a young green kid in the late 80's just wanting to learn how to do things right and how to get the right look to being an international success some twenty some odd years later.. I'd say I've done pretty d**n well for myself. I've seen and dealt with character after character.. Gimmick after gimmick.. In order to expose all the bullsh*t and lies beneath the surface of our business and to promote the sport behind the madness. However people here in this country still want to believe that men like Dick Flair and Hulk Hogan are the greatest things ever to walk into a squared circle when I, time and time again proved that they not only are not but never will be the man whom they think they are. For in XPW all I have done is debunk myth after myth and hype after hype in order to let the world know that this isn't a place for push overs and wanna bes."
~The man turns around and Shane Douglas is that figure. His arms are folded in front of him and he doesn't appear to be in great mood.~
"The so called smarks of our business pride themselves on calling so and so underrated or so and so overrated so much to the point where they have the insecure and underdeveloped talents in this business looking to them to guide their careers when in reality they should be taking it on their own. Much like I did, and much like those who came before me. As much as I don't like Hogan or Flair they too came up the same way I did! Except for them it was time for someone like me kick them the #### out the door so people like myself, Shane Helms, and even that two bit piece of trash Billy Kidman could carve a nitch in this company we call XPW. Now people like my opponent in a few weeks, waltz in here and insult the very company that guys like a Rob Van Dam, Edge, Kurt Angle, and others helped to build and carry. Thanks to the smarks who make even my soon to be opponent seem like a million bucks.. Hahahaha!"
~He takes a deep breath and sighs before continuing. He also sits down on the ledge behind him and unfolds his arms. Placing his hands into his pants pockets while staring to his right before shifting his glance back to the camera.~
"My opponent is the much hyped sensation himself known as Ken Kennedy? Ken Anderson? Mr. Whatever The Hell He Wants To Be Called These Days! You want to talk about taking over XPW and claiming the gold for yourself. Hell Kenny you already act like you have the championship in the bag when in fact you are beginning to write check your ass can't cash! You holding the XPW.. Xtreme Pro Wrestling World Heavyweight Championship.. The very same title I've carried four times over is like handing it to that jerkoff Ensley Koloff! Which much like you will never happen as long as The Franchise is in XPW! I've waited long enough to get my chance at MY championship! And now after defeating you, I will go on to face whom ever else qualifies for the title match on Shocker. And even then I will continue the momentum.. I will continue until I get what I want.. And it's obvious what I want.. I don't think I have to repeat myself unless your hearing isn't worth a d**n!"
~Douglas gets curious look upon his face as he continues.~
"Tell me something Ken, when did you do anything for XPW? What in the hell did you do to deserve this opportunity? You signed your name to a contract while I on the other hand earned my spot! You see this is what's wrong with our sport.. People like you on a guaranteed contract.. You stub a toe or put your eye out sucking someone dick then you get paid while people like me.. We don't get sh*t! Guys like me have to work in order to support our families! Anderson, you can bring your c*ocky and bold attitude but it's not going to save you from getting a wrestling lesson of a lifetime. You are going to be stepping into that ring with the man who's going to bring XPW back to where it belongs.. Anderson, prepare to get your ass FRANCHISED!"
~Douglas holds up the three fingers and laughs as the camera zooms in on him and fades out.~
