“You’re probably calling me a coward by now, Daisuke.”
“And really…”
“Reaaaallllyyyyy…”
“You’re right.”
“I am a coward.”
Scott pauses, a finger raised upward.
“But.”
A beat.
“You need to understand that things happen for a reason. If you were being disrespected, you’d be filled with anger as well. If you were being treated unfairly, you’d want to even say something about it. Think about it from your own standpoint, think about it from your own point of view, can’t you see where I’m coming from about it?”
“Of course you don’t.”
“Why should you?”
He scoffed.
“You’re an honest man, you’re someone that’s been around the business for quite some time now, you’re aware of situations like these and what it means—you should also be aware of disrespect being given to me by having fake challengers to a championship that’s desperately needing some reinvigoration and reimagining.”
“The points you need to be making aren't about cowardice or anything like that—there’s nothing to be supposedly scared about, if that’s what you’re thinking—but the points you should be making are simple. I just put down Sexton Love– someone that was dominant throughout his time here. I put down a fucking clown, who was already a replacement for a mime, and put him in unemployment from where he came from.”
“Just begin to think of what can possibly happen to you when it comes down to the two of us inside of that ring. Just think of what can possibly happen. With all of the stakes behind it as well? I’ll be damned if I lose this shit right now, this close to winning something that’ll mean everything to me. Because I don’t just say ill-intended shit for fun, I say it and then do that shit with every bit of fuckin’ intent behind it. Look at the bodies laid out behind me, fucker.”
“Take this in.”
"There are two hundred and six bones in the human body, you can break one hundred and forty-three of them before the person goes into shock. I’ll happily snap each and every single one of them to make sure you know what suffering feels like, Daisuke.”
A moment of silence followed, a slight smirk grew along his lips.
“You don’t need this.”
“You haven’t been waiting years for this.”
“You haven't been forgotten about for the past two years this company has been around for.”
“After everything that I’ve done over the past six months, I am not going to let this slip out from my fingers like before—and to make sure of it, I will cause you pain just like the rest have suffered. I will put you in the grave with the rest. The bodies keep on stacking up for a reason, Daisuke. You’re too blind to see it right now, but you will, because this is for everything that I’ve fought for in my life. Everything”
“And to me, you’re just another victim on the list.”
“And really…”
“Reaaaallllyyyyy…”
“You’re right.”
