Toronto, Ontario, Canada
Hell if I know where this takes place
Dylan: You know, I didn't think I'd be stepping down to the second-rate Canadian fed to prove my worth once more.
We open on Dylan, standing in a white room and dressed up, ready for action. He wears a baby blue dress shirt, the sleeves rolled up. There's a tie around his neck, but it's loosely wrapped up, possibly an homage to the dearly beloved and late father to half the XHF Roster, Zoran Sainovic. Regardless, he stares daggers into the camera.
Dylan: No seriously, I thought that "beating" Eric Dane meant that I'd taken down the very best Canada had to offer. I could make another lap around the states, maybe run "down undah." Hell, I could even go home to the land of the rising sun, where real winners are bred.
He pauses, his nostrils flaring.
Dylan: But instead, I'm tasked to join the junkie deathtrap version of Northern Pro. To examine the blossoming talent this company can offer, and see how they fare against the best of the best. I told Solomon to send out the best guy he's got in that locker room, and we'll throw a little J-ROK vs FWA Xtraction Part 2 on the card. And the man he sends out? Fucking Koch Knocher.
He shakes his head.
Dylan: The biggest joke out of MCCW to challenge for the X*Crown since Death Trap! Or, I guess not. Jokes need effort put through to be funny. And this isn't comedy.
Clicking his tongue, he takes a step closer to the camera. Arms folded in front of him.
Dylan: This is bigger than anything you've ever been apart of. Your fight against Jason Justice at Southern Hostility, one that some would call the biggest fight of your career, it won't hold a candle to the career defining moments you'll experience in the ring with me. That's the kind of thing I do to other people. When you stand across the ring from me, it boosts your value to levels you've never quite reached.
He paces.
Dylan: Gals like Deco, Wolf Fang Ayame and Momoko Honda. They are on the rise in J-ROK. Lord Dominicus is challenging Eric Dane for the NPW North American Double Crown Champion, he knows how to put Dane down because I SHOWED HIM how to put Dane down! Big Bone had a bit of a misstep but he'll bounce back under the care of his Bad to the Bone buddies. When you face me, your stock value increases. Your worth increases. Your chances of success drastically increase!
He holds his hands behind his back, a look of superiority upon his face.
Dylan: That's precisely what I'll do to you, Koch. You will be made famous, a worthy challenger, a star to carry FWA into the future for years to come!
A pause, as he looks off to the side. He picks up the XHF X*Crown Championship, and a sly grin appears on his face.
Dylan: But to make you a star... I must first break you.
He holds the Championship, folded, at his waist.
Dylan: Helping you will be no easy task, Koch. You already have the popularity, and even some untapped talent, but that only gets you so far. Your spirits will be broken when you face me. Your body, your mind, will face reconstruction. We'll make a man of you yet! Through a challenge of my belt, we will use this opportunity to benefit you! And we will turn you into the man who can beat the FWA Professional Wrestling Champion. Who will beat the champ. But you're just not there. Not yet.
A shake of the head and a tsk of the tongue.
Dylan: But it can't be this simple. Hard work requires sacrifice, and you will have to sacrifice blood, sweat and tears to get to where I am. Just like I have.
He looks at one of his robot hands, and reminisces about 2018. A terrible time with a shitty step-father. Not reminiscing, really.
Dylan: But through dedication and putting effort forth, you will become a strong man. Strong enough to sit at the head of the XHF Table one day. When that day comes, I'll still be sitting here. Waiting. But that day will not come anytime soon, not until we work to better you.
He slings the X*Crown Championship over his shoulder and jams his thumb into his chest.
Dylan: The FWA Warehouse. February 28th. I am going to do to you what I did to Robbie, to Hyperion, to each and every individual who's stepped up to challenge me for this. Put you DOWN like the scoundrel you are! This, this'll be a war that all fans of Big Koch will remember. Because it's the night that Koch dies! And the only thing you can do to change your fate? NOTHING!
He swipes his arm to the side, aggressively snarling his last line.
Dylan: Prepare to be famous!
As he walks off screen, he tugs off the tie and throws it at the camera, at Koch. We cut to black.
