Head like a hole.
Black as your soul.
I'd rather die than give you control.
As soon as the chorus for "Head Like A Hole" rings out through the speakers, out steps the reigning Destiny Wrestling Heavyweight Champion after a hard fought Battle Royale the previous night, as seen as he keeps his hand on his shoulder.
THE Ref
THE CHAMP IS HEREEEEE!!!
Bulldog walks behind, carrying the Championship for his companion. Maverick slowly climbs the steps and pulls a microphone out of Bulldogs back pocket, bringing it close to his mouth as the music fades away.
I kind of failed you all last night. I said that I was going to win it all, win the Battle Royale and win everything but-I've been taken back by some unfortunate events. Fought until the final four, and then I was thrown over the ropes-Sadly, I landed on my shoulder when I fell out of the ring, so it's a bit sore the next day. I'm pretty sure I got about... four eliminations? I think that's a close enough guess. But anyway, the point is that I didn't make it. So, I've no advantage. I've slightly simmered down a little. I'm here tonight to continue things on until the next Prestige or whenever someone wants to step up for the title here.
Bulldog
Maverick, everyone gets a fluke. You put out the best performance. Next time? They're yours.
We're proud to have you as our Champion. Our... King.
Maverick
I'd like to think that but I need to get my momentum back. There's this stupid effing idea in my head, Johnny.
Bulldog listens intently.
Maverick
I want to think it can happen, I want to see if it can happen, but I don't know the consequences of what such an idea can have on me... Or the other person involved.
Bulldog
What is it, sir?
Maverick
You see, Johnny, there's these Fired Up! Previews coming up at the next Prestige.
But I'm not content with a Tag Team Match...
THE Ref
OH MY
Maverick
I want some singles competition.
THE Ref
MAVERICK MAY BE LOOKING TO PROVE SOMETHING HERE, BUT WHAT?
Maverick
This stupid effing idea might be big-it's what people have been asking for awhile now.
Bulldog smiles, knowing it's a stroke of genius.
Maverick
I want the guy who eliminated me last night-I want Vincent Draven.
THE Ref
WOAHHHH
Bulldog applauds, smiling.
Maverick
I know there's big money when that could ever happen. But I'm not a very patient man, Johnny.
I need to prove something
I need to make a mark
Set a point
Make a statement
Waiting until Fired Up will not do.
Bulldog
This entire roster is yours if you want it...
Maverick
I don't want the roster.
Bulldog looks confused.
Maverick
I want Vincent effing Draven...
So, hear me out, Prestige Champion. You came here two weeks ago, and you showed your face around my parts like you owned the damn place.
Bulldog stands behind the Champion, raising the title as he addresses the camera.
Maverick
That's perfectly fine by me. But,you... You stopped me from performing the run of my life. The run of my career. You're my roadblock.. I need to knock you down. I don't want to wait until Fired Up
So, name the time and name the place, Vincent
Let's settle this like men
Champion versus Champion
Our own Fired Up Preview.
THE Ref
MAVERICK WANTS DRAVEN BEFORE THE TOURNAMENT
Bulldog applauds, placing the Championship onto Maverick's good shoulder.
THE Ref
BUT AT WHAT COST?
WHAT HAPPENS IF THEY TEAM UP AFTER?
WHAT WILL DRAVEN HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THIS?
Maverick
It's a friendly bout, Draven. Keep in touch. Because I want this more than you do. And I want it soon.
Maverick drops the microphone and rolls out of the ring, heading to the back. Bulldog picks up the microphone
Give the King what he wishes. Oh, and just a reminder, I wouldn't mind a certain man too... I'm not... Ahem... Dunne yet. Bulldog laughs, just like two weeks ago, before following the Champion up the ramp. The hooded man rolls his eyes and whispers to Dreadvan. Dreadvan nods, then giggles.
A vignette appears, a hand rising from the murky waters-the camera glitches, then scratches to black.

WHAT WAS THAT?
Rockface Anchorages music hits and he begins to make his way down the ramp, smiling, arms folded.

SHOOTING STAR CHAMPION IN THE BUILDING FOLKS
HAS ROCKFACE SETTLED ON A VICTIM?
Rockface places the Shooting Star Championship in front of him, picking up a microphone.
So earlier tonight I issued a challenge to anyone in the back to challenge me for the title in front of me...
My victim has been chosen.
Rockface points to the screen and laughs.
