We see the outside of a dirty and cheap hotel. A little place hidden in the wall of the cesspool that is Las Vegas. The signs neon lights have some letters broken as we fade into a dingey room with various staines on the wall and floor. Roaches can be seen crawling on the walls as we see a blue haired man sit down in a sketchy chair that could snap at any minute. That man is SCCW hall of famer Eichi Yamaguchi. He looks into the camera with disdain. "(El Rey you're reign as XHF Junior Heavyweight Champion has been nothing short of impressive. Clearly you're the real deal. But untill now you've faced second rate talent at best and jokes to this profession at worst. Nothing but mere children.)" He says stone faced. "(But you've still managed to hold onto that very belt for an impressive amount of time. Against multiple opponents in various matches and promotions. But you're tired. I can see it in your eyes Rey. Its very subtle, but I can see that the grind of being a touring champion is getting to you. Its not if you lose that belt, it's when. And that when is will happen soon enough. Because despite how good you are, how great you've been, you're no Gold Rush God.)" Still no emotion as he cracks his neck and knuckles. "(I'm the only man to win the gold rush tournament back to back. The first ever MCCW World Heavyweight Champion. You're coming into my turf. My HOME. And I'll be damned if you disrespect it or me in front of my people. You're not going to have a wrestling match, you're going to have a fight. Because that's what I do. I beat you senselessly until you tap out or get knocked out. And with my Gold Rush Alpha? I'll be aiming to take that head of yours clean off. I promise that you will remember Eichi Yamaguchi and you will learn first hand what makes this company the greatest on this planet.)" He turns the phone camera off and we switch to a different angle now. He lets out a sigh as he gets up and peaks out of the blinds. He sits back down once more. "(It's been years now and they're still chasing me.)" he says to himself. "(I'm getting pretty damn sick and tired of all of this damned running. It's about time those bastards get knocked back into reality. I've lost my home, my father, the love of my life. Even some fingers because of those rats! God damn it no more. NO MORE!)" he yells as he bangs a fist on the table. Splitting the flimsy thing in half. He gets back up again and looks through the blinds. He puts on a hoodie and a mask to conceal himself before packing a few things and heading out to a car. We see him drive out and far away. We cut to see a grave. As rain pours. The name is unrecognizable, but the dates will always be etched into one mans mind forever. A tattooed hand places flowers onto the grave. "(I know I've failed you joining those scum and getting you killed. But I'm trying to right those wrongs. I'll get revenge for you. For us. Just hold on in there a little while longer. They'll all pay in time. But I had to come back here. To tell you. I needed to come back to my roots.)" He says as before we pan up to the grey sky. We cut to another location, this time much more sunny and bright. "(El Rey… you and me come from very different worlds. You're the son of one of the greatest to lace a pair of boots in the original XHF. You have this business in your blood. No wonder you've accomplished so much at your age. But just because you have wrestling in your blood doesn't make you great. That comes with hard work, dedication and strength. All of which I have.)" "(Because unlike you El Rey I didn't have a daddy who got my foot in the door. I started out doing illegal fights in KSW. A place where I was undefeated. Then I found my way into Las Vegas and made MCCW my home. I overcame that Betty Crocker wrestling cotton candy eating piece of shit Anthony Cafery in the very first Call To Arms. Me and my team of fellow MCCW members made it to the finals of that event if I recall correctly. Proving to everyone that we're the real fucking deal. And in a few days time? I'll do that yet again.)" "(I have a lot to prove, a lot to live up to. And if I can be the one to finally end this incredible run you're on? Well that'll solidify my legacy. Not only here in SCCW, but the XHF as a whole. And you know what Rey? It's about time that you rest and this reign of yours ends. So prepare for war, because this is going to be the toughest fight of your entire miserable life.)" |
