The scene opens up inside a silent WUK arena. There is nobody in the arena except the Wrestle:UK World Champion, “The High Roller” Wesley Crane. There is a steel chair set up in the center of the ring. Wesley is sitting there, looking serious. Instead of being in one of his custom $10,000 suits, he is wearing designer workout pants and a black tank top. Henderson is in the ring as well with his iPad. It’s apparent that Wesley is not in his normal happy mood.
“The High Roller” Wesley Crane: “Is that thing on?”
Henderson: “Yes, sir.”
“The High Roller” Wesley Crane: “Okay good. I want to make sure this gets posted to the WUK website.”
Henderson: “Would you like it posted to the XHF website as well?”
“The High Roller” Wesley Crane: “Why would I care about it being posted there? Wesley Crane doesn’t do “network shows.”
Henderson: “Sir, your WUK World Championship Match is a Network show.”
“The High Roller” Wesley Crane: “What in the fuck? Who decided this bullshit?”
Henderson: “Wormwood, I’m guessing.”
“The High Roller” Wesley Crane: “That mother fucker.”
Wesley looks annoyed.
“The High Roller” Wesley Crane: “Get your iPad ready to go. It’s time to deliver a message to Kalmin.”
Henderson: “It’s on and ready to go.”
“The High Roller” Wesley Crane: “Alright, let’s go.”
Henderson taps the screen a couple of times and then motions for Wesley to start talking.
“The High Roller” Wesley Crane: “Kalmin, I’m going to keep this straight up for you. I’m going to keep it real. I’m going to be truthful. Kalmin, you need to back out of this match.”
Wesley Crane leans forward a little bit. As he leans back in his chair, he rubs his hands through his hair. He takes a deep breath and slowly releases it.
“The High Roller” Wesley Crane: “Kalmin, you’re not a bad guy. You’re just a young guy with big dreams, and I can respect that. You’ve won the Hardkore World World Championship. That’s a big accomplishment. Defeating someone like Cross Recoba is fun. Good reason for you to celebrate… but Kalmin, I’m not Cross. Cross is the wish version of Wesley Crane. Cross can’t hold a candle to Wesley Crane, and that’s just the facts.”
Wesley wipes his forehead and takes another deep breath before releasing it.
“The High Roller” Wesley Crane: “Kalmin, you and I have been at this thing for a long time… but in the end, it’s always the same thing. I always win. You can’t beat me, it’s just the way it is. Kalmin, you’re a good wrestler, but you’re no Wesley Crane. Wesley Crane is the greatest wrestler in the world, and all my championships prove it… and before you say that the man makes the championship, not the other way around, you’re damn right. When Fowler and Havok were the World Champion, the belt didn’t mean jack shit… but now, with Wesley Crane holding the belt, the belt is something of great value. It’s something that is craved by every wrestler in the entire world. Kalmin, it’s something that you crave so much that you refuse to give up and let this feud die.”
Wesley stands up and starts pacing back and forth. He looks at Henderson.
“The High Roller” Wesley Crane: “Make sure you keep following me.”
Henderson: “Got it, Boss.”
“The High Roller” Wesley Crane: “Kalmin, this time, we’re facing off inside a Hell in a Cell. A sadistic steel structure that has been known to cut careers short. People don’t just lose years off their lives, I’ve heard it said that the Hell in a Cell match has been known to take people’s souls. Kalmin, do you have it in you? Do you have what it takes to lose your soul in order to defeat me inside a match that I’m destined to win? I don’t believe you are. Some people have that “it” factor. Wesley Crane proved he had the “it” factor by coming into Wrestle:UK and taking over. I walked into Hardkore World and did the same thing. I’m a multi champion in Hardkore World. I’m the WUK World Champion. Kalmin, I’m riding high in this world while you’re just floating by.”
Wesley stops talking and stops walking. He looks directly into the camera.
“The High Roller” Wesley Crane: “Kalmin, I’m going to keep it real with you. Kalmin, you don’t have what it takes. You’ve never been able to defeat me and I refuse to let that change now that you have tasted a little gold of your own.”
Wesley sits back down in the steel chair.
“The High Roller” Wesley Crane: “I hope you have something else in your arsenal to bring to the table because if you don’t… if you don’t show up with something new, I’m going to do to you the same thing I’ve done to you each time we’ve been in the ring… I’m going to wreck you. I’m going to defeat you once again. I’m going to humiliate you once and put you out to pasture once and for all. Kalmin, what I’m trying to say is that you’ve got zero chances of defeating me. Two men enter a ring and only one man can emerge victorious. The man who wants it more will leave the champion. You may believe you want it more, but nothing and I mean nothing will keep me from retaining my sweet Naomi. She’s my belt. She’s my gal. She’s my Wrestle:UK World Championship and there’s nothing you can do about it. I’m sorry Kalmin, but at Night of Champions you’re going to lose once again.”
Henderson: “Anything else, sir?”
“The High Roller” Wesley Crane: “Cut it. It’s time to get to the casino for a get together. I’m thinking it’s time to celebrate my win.”
Henderson: “But, sir, you haven’t defeated Kalmin yet.”
“The High Roller” Wesley Crane: “Yes I have, Henderson, yes I have.”
The scene fades out as Wesley takes another deep breath.
“The High Roller” Wesley Crane: “Is that thing on?”
Henderson: “Yes, sir.”
“The High Roller” Wesley Crane: “Okay good. I want to make sure this gets posted to the WUK website.”
