:: The scene opens in front of a large POW logo. Stood in front of it is Big Ci, wearing a blue suit, white shirt and no tie. He has the UWC Extreme Championship resting on his shoulder. He is looking into camera. He speaks.
Big Ci: Greetings grapple fans, Big Ci here. In the wake of “First Rights” people have been buzzing. Some have been buzzing about the crowning of “Sensational” Shawn Stevens as the inaugural POW Heavyweight Champion. Others, about George Duke and his winning of the POW Valor strap. A number of people have been excited by the finalising of the Four Horsemen: XE, the faction that I have been putting together. But i… have been impressed by one man… One man has done something that many people have not been able to do. One man has been able to do something that many only dream of. Jason Dread was able to… pronounce Cran Landom’s name properly. Very nice Jason. More on you in a moment.
However first, I want to talk about this…
:: He looks at the belt on his shoulder
… This championship belt on my shoulder. You see something else that has had the wrestling world on the edge of its seat is the upcoming closure of the United Wrestling Company. A lot of people know that I started my main stream career in the UWC and that I have called it my home ever since. Suddenly I find it is closing down and my first thought is this belt hanging over my mantle piece. I have held this belt since September of last year and there is not a challenge I have ducked since I’ve held it.
Now that the UWC is merging with POW I don’t know where I stand. Is my title to be merged with another or is it to be retired… I don’t know. What I do know is that as long as I have this belt in my possession I will continue to defend it against all comers whether they be POW or UWC. I hold this belt in such a high regard and even if the company is going down I will continue to represent myself, my division and my company for as long as I can. But first I have more pressing things on my mind.
One such thing is you Dread. Not just you but Richie Morrison as well. This week I get to test the strength of the Horsemen for the first time as I team with, my boy, “The Predator” Dave Hunter. Now contrary to what you said recently Dread, myself and Dave are not a “well oiled tag team”. This is the first time that me and Dave have teamed together… but as far as doing our team mates proud goes, you can be damn sure that we will be making a statement. In fact, this week will be our first statement of a long, long list.
You see Dread, you have been running your mouth for a few days now and I’m just about sick and tired with it. You call me a Neanderthal. Well I cannot wait… to go prehistoric on your ass. You call me and Dave a “thorn in your side”, well we may be thorns, but we all know who the prick is. Dread, you say that you can’t imagine what the founders of the original Four Horsemen would want to do to us… well I imagine they’d want to shake our hands. You see this is not some cheap imitation of the original Horsemen. This is a different faction with similar ideal… granted, Lance will find it hard being suave. When myself, Dave, Lance and Shane walk out to a ring we do not go out to imitate, we go out to pay homage. Ric Flair, Arn and Ole Anderson and Tully Blanchard were the greatest unit in wrestling history and no one could ever hope to be better, which is why we carry their name. I mean… why try and improve on perfection? No one can be better than the horsemen… no one can be the same. But WE can be just as good in a different way. The Four Horsemen: XE will take this place by storm… and we start this week. Me and Dave start this week. What you said about Shane and Lance getting involved… won’t happen. You see from bell to bell what happens in that ring is between me and Dave and you and Rich… don’t worry Rich I’ll be getting to you in a second. From the beginning to the end of that match it is up to me and Dave to hand you your ass… but as soon as that bell rings again, it’s open season. So in case you think about any… extra curricular activity, think again because Lance and Shane will have our backs.
Now for Rich Morrison. Rich you have turned over a new leaf as of late. Whether you are sincere or not… well that’s your business. For what it’s worth I think that you have matured lately. You were always a great talent and you still are. When I wrestled Stevens he gave me the fight of my life and it was by a lapse of judgement on his part that I escaped with the “W”. There is no shame in losing to him. But Rich, if I may I’d like to give you a little advice. If you are serious about turning over a new leaf. Then there are a few things that you need to ensure. Firstly, when we go out there on Thursday let’s make it a fair fight, none of your old tricks. We go out there and see who the best men are. Secondly, if you want the love and respect of your peers… don’t surround yourself with egomaniacal, self serving son’s of bitches like Jason Dread.
Me and Dave didn’t fare too well in our outing at the supercard… but that was one night. This week will be different. We will win this week and every week after that. The Four Horsemen: XE will stand tall over POW. Big Ci Over and out.
