:: The scene opens at the foot of an apartment block. Big Ci walks into shot. He is wearing jeans and a shirt, and a long coat. He walks a couple of steps and then stops. He looks down for a moment, before crouching and picking up a cigar butt… George Duke’s cigar Butt. He looks at it for a moment…
Big Ci: Filthy habit
:: He tosses it away
:: He walks on, talking as he does so
Big Ci: You know George… no matter how much you don’t like me… I can’t help but like you. You’re a funny guy… I wondered why Wall-Mart wanted me for their grand opening as well. Apparently they did a survey and… what do you know? I was number one. I asked where you came… they said twelfth… out of twelve… but I digress.
You know, I saw your spot on the TV. I saw you…
:: He looks up as the camera angles up and we see Dukes balcony, just about
I saw you on that balcony looking out at the world and it reminded me of something from a while back. You see… last year I was wrestling a guy… guy by the name of Angelus. And I remember Angelus once… back in September… was smoking… looking down on the world, just like you did, surveying the cars and the people below, just like you did. And I remember I warned him… I told him that I was gonna reach up and rip him off that roof before he knew what hit him… but I know that with you… that won’t work.
You see you’re a different breed, that’s one of the reasons I like you. It takes more than a punch in the face to put you out. But I know that a punch in the face from you is more than enough to put a normal man out. Not to toot my own horn, though, but think myself to be more than just a normal man.
You are one of the most proficient, technically sound, pure wrestlers in this industry today. You can snap a mans wrist with a wristlock, just as quickly as I could with a lead pipe or a steel chair… but just because I use a lead pipe or a steel chair doesn’t mean that I can’t do YOU in with a couple of actual wrestling holds.
You see as I have said… I was born in England and England is a hot bed for fine wrestling. Now whilst I lived most of my life… in the good ol’ U S of A, I have wrestled in England and I have British wrestling in my blood. So George Duke do not dismiss me out of hand, because as easy as it is for you to lock in a Boston crab or a spinning toe hold, don’t think I won’t try every which way to get out of it.
George you may not like me, you may not rate me in the ring… but one thing that you won’t be able to deny this week… is that I did my best to take that belt away from you… and whilst you may think that you can pull out the win this week… I will be doing my damnedest to prove otherwise.
So even though you can rip my tendons in two, even though you might be able to snap my neck as soon as snap your fingers… know that as long as I’m breathing fresh air… I am gunning for you and your title. And whilst… as we have seen this week… my adoring public may have turned their back on me… I don’t really care… because in that ring, like the boss says, it’s strictly business. So shine the title up, make it gleam under the lights in the casino because this week… ‘Love me or hate me… I’m taking it away from you.

Nice place… Big Ci over and out
