The City.
Let's watch this city burn
From the skylines on top of the world
Till there's nothing left of her
Let's watch this city burn the world
The city looks so pretty do you wanna' burn it with me?

New Championship Wrestling World Heavyweight Champion.....Steve Awesome.
It feels nice to be called that doesn't it Steve? After your numerous and well publicised attempts at gaining the World Championship most people would be right in thinking your match against Rob was probably you're last chance, lord knows it's probably the last one you deserve. Don't get me wrong there, I'm not saying you don't deserve to be World Champion, you just don't deserve chance after chance after chance......I guess pining after Kelly does do a lot for your career.
You and Adam prove that.
On a personal level, I have no problem with you Steve, outside the obvious fact that you get pushed into the main event just because you're pretty and marketable. You remember The Forgotten and what we stood for, right Steve? Everything you stand for is the opposite....so you would expect us to be at odds, for me to have some burning hatred for you or something....but I don't. I've watched you develop since your career pretty much began. I saw you climb the ranks as the pretty boy who cracks wisecrack jokes, to the entertainer who can carry a main event match. To a hall of famer....there is no denying your ability Steve, and you've known me for a long time. You know how much respect I actually have for your in ring abilities.....
That's why I wanted you in Overdrive so long ago.
But I look at you now Steve, I look at the ever *** damn annoying presence of Crystal Hilton and how she seems to be absolutely obsessed with you and I genuinely wonder, what is there left for you? Why are you still around? I mean you don't seem like the kind of guy who worries about legacies or winning streaks or even records. You've proven yourself to be one of the best wrestlers that this company has ever employed, your name will be remembered for all time with nCw.
So what drives you Steve? What pushes you to go on and on?
Is this your last hurrah before you announce you're retirement? Are you trying to become the longest reigning world champion, or maybe you want to be the first person to ever hold the World Championship three times? Huh? I don't get it Steve.....I just can't figure you out. So I just make my own reasons up for why you're still here, for why you don't want to pack it in. The only problem is, I can't think of any Steve. So instead I'll just have to use my own reasons why this match means anything, why this match is important. It's really quite simple Steve, it has nothing to do with personal vendettas, it has nothing to do with cheating women or adultery......it's the simplest thing ever.
I have never beaten you.
That is something I would like to rectify, and not because I hate you, not because you're the Face of the Franchise, and not because I'm the God of Xtreme or any of that crap. I don't think I'm better than you Steve, I don't think that I'm above you in any way shape or form, but I don't think that you are above me either. I believe that we are on the same level here in nCw, years in the making but it is true. You might believe yourself better because you have beaten me and I have never beaten you, but you know as well as I do that anybody can beat anybody on any given day.
And Collision will be my day.
There is no better time to beat you Steve, then when you are at the top of the mountain, than when you are at your best. This match is like a gift from the nCw back room staff, for me to prove that I still have what it takes to be considered for the main event picture, and maybe even a future world title shot. You might look down on me and think it will never happen, but I'm not going to stop Steve, I captured my first championship quicker than anybody else ever has in nCw, and I won't stop until I'm back at the top of that mountain and reclaim the prize that means I stand above all over, as simply put: the best in the world. It will come Steve, and it will be a day of reckoning because I will not have the might of the Empire behind me, I will not have the support of The Forgotten or the scheming of the Age of the Revolution.
I will become the God of nCw once again, and defeating you will be the biggest step on that path towards rekindling greatness Steve. So I hope you understand now, that this is nothing personal and it really does have nothing to do with my feelings towards you either way. So at Collision I will walk out there and bring my best, bring everything I possibly can so that I can end the night with my arm raised and for people to stop mocking me and take me seriously once again.
I've never looked forward to a match so much in my life, see you Sunday.....champ.
…
...oh yeah...
Do you have any clue why Megatron transforms into a gun for Starscream to use, that is much smaller than the gun Megatron already has on his arm?

The rip roaring sounds of a Harley Davidson roar through the scene as we open up on the Kane Family home in San Diego, the home of one Bradley Allen Kane. The sounds are coming from one of two Harley’s parked outside the house. A small truck has just the house and is driving away as the engine from the Harley roars. It's Brad Kane on the Harley with Spike standing on the driveway arms folded, smiling.
Brad Kane: You have to be the best brother in the world!
Spike nods his head, his smile stretching from ear to ear as he watches his brother simply fall in love with his brand new bike.
Spike Kane: Yeah well, I felt like I owed you something after the whole rehab thing....
All of a sudden the front door swings open and like a tornado bound for mainland America Megan Kane comes storming down the pathway towards both of the Kane brothers. Spike grimaces as he spots her in his peripheral vision marching towards Brad, who is so occupied with his new bike he doesn't see her, that is until she slaps him across the back of the head.
Megan Kane: And just what do you think you're doing?
Brad almost craps himself when he sees the look on Megan's face. He stutters unable to give her a straight answer for fear of saying something wrong.
Megan Kane: Do you have any idea how dangerous these things are?
Spike moves forwards towards Megan in an attempt to calm her down.
Brad Kane: It was a present.....from Mike...
Spike places a hand on Megans shoulder, but she rounds on him pointing her motherly finger of doom right into his face. Spike is taken aback not only by Megans tempter, but by the fact that she quite happily stands up to one of the most violent men she has ever met.
Megan Kane: And you! Do you want you're brother dead or something!?
Spike Kane: I...wai....what? I ride one!
Megan gives Spike a “shut your mouth” kind of look and Spike simply raises his arms and takes a step back. Megan storms to brad and snatches the keys out of the bike, killing the engine. Brad doesn't even have a chance to sulk let alone stop her. She storms back towards the house glaring at Spike as she does so. Spike turns to Brad, a “wtf was that?” look on his face.
Spike Kane: Her time of the month or something?
Brad shakes his head, a smile playing on his lips. He climbs off the bike and heads towards his brother looking like a kid who had got really excited for Christmas but then didn't get the present he was expecting.
Brad Kane: I don't know, maybe she's just being over the top after the beat down.
Spike Kane: Yeah, I'm sorry I wasn't there the first time they tried it man. I feel bad about it,
Brad shrugs it off.
Brad Kane: You weren't there, it doesn't matter. Although, big mean super Spike saved the day last time.
Spike laughs and pats Brad on the back.
Spike Kane: Yep, I have to look after my little brother!
Brad Kane: By seconds!
Spike Kane: Still counts!
Brad Kane: I take it back, you're the most annoying brother in the world!
Spike smirks as he takes a step away from the playful punch from his brother as he slips his hand into his back pocket and pulls out a key on a keyring and spins it on his finger. He holds it in the air and smirks at Brad who stops in his tracks and glares up at the key.
Spike Kane: Yeah, I had a feeling this might come in handy.
Brad Kane: A spare key?
Spike Kane: Ooh rah!
Spike tosses the key to Brad who's smile spreads from ear to ear as he high fives his brother and then they share a brotherly hug with each other. Before they head towards the house.
Spike Kane: Just don't tell Megan I gave it to you...
-Fade.

Jimmy. James. Sheamus.
The man of five million faces, the man with as many personalities and styles as Brad has children. Yeah yeah, you have heard it all before I know. I'm not an idiot. And I'm not Joe Everyman either. Last week you had a cake walk fighting Everyman who barely even put up a fight, and do you know why? Because he was still reeling from his bitter defeat to me. Because he begged for our match at the birthday show confident that he could repeat his one hit wonder from a year ago and defeat me on a huge scale.......but it backfired, and now look at the f*cking little prick, making one off statements to me at the end of the worst promo I've ever seen since a certain “Hamster” themed video aired on youtube.
My family are often the butt of jokes similar to what you have been recently Jimmy. People mock our life and the horrible things that we have gone through....tell me, does it sound plausible that three children would repress the memory of their mother committing suicide in front of them? Does it make sense that two brothers sent to distant corners of the world would not recognise each other when they managed to somehow end up in the same wrestling federation (keep in mind it was the premier federation around at the time, where the best would go) does it make sense that the younger sister who was sent to an insane asylum as her memories of her mother killing herself in her nursery scarred her so much?
I know my family is f*cked up. I know it seems like something right out of a fantasy novel. My father fakes his death and gets plastic surgery.....he takes over the orphanage where I am sent and abuses me for ten years or so of my life, moulding me into the monster I became when I started doing this business, when I realise that destroying people in the ring could be a career. My Dad shows up years later, years after I find out Brad is my brother, not quite identical but mother-loving close enough......he shows up, and he still has an insane kind of control over me, manipulating me to do his dirty work, until I managed to stop it, until I managed to break free from it because of my family. Because of my son, who has been taken from me by the bitch who was doing his dirty work for him...
Add to the fact I lost Zell at such a young age...
And you can see why people mock me. Why people insult my family and my traumatic history, to them it's just a joke, to them it's a weakness that they can point out to try and make you lose control, to try and make you forget what your own personal goal is, to make you lose focus.
Which has to be your biggest flaw Jimmy.
Every single time you come back to nCw or you come back from some injury, or this excuse or that excuse you make out that you are a changed man. You make out that you're the best Jimmy Zane has ever been, that you're five times this stupid over the top fact, and fifty times this stupid fact nobody cares about.
Then you lose.
You whine.
You complain.
You switch things up.
That is what should be commended, that you don't stick with the same tried and failed formula, you actually try to find out why things aren't working and make the changes to reflect that weakness and try to turn it into a strength. You're just.......well, to be honest with you?
Stupid.
Yeah, I get the irony that I of all people are calling your past and retcon's and new past, and old past and actors and Hollywood and blah blah blah stupid, but after all you are the son of the legendary Punisher, right?
That one is still true right? It hasn't changed?
Because it benefits you. Because people remember the Punisher with fondness and automatically look at you in a different light, simply because you are his son, the same can be said for Xander, people look at him differently because he's Gib's son. What you fail to realise is that with a legacy of blood comes expectation, comes demands. Xander has lived up to them, taking up the mighty throne of his father and even becoming the Gladiator. Whereas you Jimmy, you haven't come even close to being anywhere near the level of The Punisher, or....the level both he and you make us believe he was at.
Because let's face it. I was here when your Dad was and all he did that stood out was defeat Milo and Dave to become world champion with Adam. The Alliance of Violence, wasn't it? Punisher road off of Adam's coat tails and used them to proclaim himself some kind of legend. All he did was have a good little laugh in the tag team division....which, now that I think about it....you're doing right now aren't you? So I guess you've surpassed you're Dad! You've reached a level better than he did, by doing the same thing.....except you're using a different person aren't you?
Riding off of the coat tails of Lex Sense.
Thank Christ the Young Guns are dead and over though, because that was just getting embarrassing. You're noble leader was a complete and utter coward, your team mates where virtually non-existent and the name was tarnished with not one of you being anywhere near an original Gun. I'm glad though, because I believe that Roberto Verona and Lex Sense can do much better without the label of Young Gun. You though? You needed it. You clung to it like it was a lifeboat because without it you were just the ever annoying ever mid card, Jimmy Zane that nobody cared about, and nobody wanted to hear the recounting of his life story for the five septillionth time.
So whilst you might think that this match is a chance for you to prove something, you need to realise what it really is Jimmy. The nCw staff don't want me to hurt Steve too much, not so close to a title defence against someone that they really don't want to hold the title. You're here for the same reason you're employed in nCw Jimmy....
You're Filler.
You are in the match to keep Steve and myself from tearing each other apart, so that there is a big chance neither of us will pick up a clean victory over each other and even more so....so that I can't defeat Steve clean, instead I'll probably end up pinning you and my long sought after victory over Steve Awesome would be hollow.
You are not going to win Jimmy, this isn't the chance for you to prove anything. This is my chance to stake my claim for the world championship, for my main event spot.
If it has to be at your expense?
Then so be it.
…..oh, I was wondering by the way....it's been bugging me all day. Do you have any idea why so many Decepticons live inside Soundwave? I mean they're all the same size as his cassette player chest (I know, retro!) yet like three things live in there! Weird.....
~~~
Oh and before I log off, I wanted to mention the Lockes. You pair of douchebags need to watch your backs, because if you lay your hands on my brother again...
I'll cave your damn skulls in.
now sit back and watch me become victorious at Collision.
ALL
BLOODY
HAIL!
