The scene opens up as TJ Codair is seen sitting at a desk, feet up on it, leaning back. Wearing a pair of glasses and reading over something, as he looks up and realizes the camera is on him.

"You know, I been reading over things. Looking over records, checking the books and all that. Anton, I want you to know something real quickly. I challenged you, this is not a match that was just thrown onto the card, this was no mistake. This was me going alright, gimme Anton. Trust me the bookers were shocked, a former Hybrid Champion being challenged by a currant Hybrid Champion. They asked why, and I said because. Good enough reason I felt, but they saw the look in my eyes and went alright, lets give it to him."

Codair takes off his glasses and sits up.

"Why did I get this match against you, a former Hybrid Champion, a talented individual in the ring. A guy who is known to be respectable person both in and out of the ring. Truth be told. I believe in Anton Chase. I believe that there is something more to him, that there is something more to the man, and that we have yet to see the best of him. However that being said, what we have seen has been very disappointing. To say the very least. What I saw on the bookers eyes when I approached them after my match with Walton and said give him a match, it was shock. Like they knew that you could not beat me, why would I bother. They know the competitor I am, I want a challenge. Anton, you could very well be that challenge if you only worked up the nerve to speak your fucking mind and do what needs to be done. Are you a bad guy, no. Are a good guy, yes. Are you great, not by a long a shot. You know why that is. It is because you are content with jerking the curtains as of late. You do not even attempt to win matches anymore. It is like your here just to be jobber, a guy people step on."

Codair gets on his feet, and walks around to the front of the desk and leans up against it.

"A wrestling god, hardly, you see I watched your promo for your big match at the pay per view a few times, just to see it. Just to get a feel for your currant mental state. Down in the dumps, is kind of an understatement, and to be truthfully honest, I get it. I been there, I have done that. You see. I been your age, you have never been mine. I have seen the error in my ways more times then I can count, and have felt sorry for em years ago. Now however I don't care much for that. You see our time is destined to end, wrong drop here, dangerous match there. Cuts careers really short, and I would hate to see that happen to you. You know why, there is a tremendous amount of untapped potential in you I have seen sense day 1 here, when I came in. The heart, the spirit, the few words. I get it, you let your actions speak louder in the ring. However with that being said, this is a naive world where our words are used against our opponents to infiltrate the mind, to cause doubt. To enhance fear, and allow us to make mistakes. Two case examples in my recent history. Both Jordan Caliban and Nikki Walton have departed the company after facing me. Reasons being I am not told, however the fact remains the same that I was their last match here. See where I am going with this."

Codair looks at the camera, as he grabs the pack of cigarettes on the desk.

"Words are ways to force your enemy to do stupid things, and make mistakes. Anton, I am known all over the world for my abilities in the ring, and my antics. Fact is, not many people can pull what I do the way I do it. See, my expertise in the ring, and my style of wrestling, no one would expect me to act the way I do. Truth be told, I could give a fuck. That is why all the people who blog or supposedly have an opinion, however have no credentials for the fact can't figure me out. That is why not a lot of people can actually get inside my head to torment me or leave me unable to come out with something better in a promo. That is why I normally have one of the highest watched segments on you tube. It is because I am entertaining, and also I can kick anyone's ass no questions asked, but the fact is this kid. I toy with a lot of people."

Codair shrugs.

"Don't get me wrong, I am surprised a bit in matches. People pull a move I was not expecting and then I'm on the ropes. However what makes me better then the rest. I have the mind frame to go ok, what can they do now, or how do I reverse this. How do I rise above this. How do I become better then my opponent. All these things float through my head in the middle of the match. In the ring, when most are focused on the match, I am thinking twenty other scenarios. That is where I get em, because that is how I am. That is how I think. That is what makes me one of the most watched guys here in this industry right now."

Codair pulls a smoke and lights it up.

"I am one of the most devastating wrestlers to ever walk into the PWX ring, It quite simply because I got the time, and the experience. I know what to look for and I go for the weakness. My secret, if your looking for it. Nine times out of ten it is not there physical attributes, however it is the mind. Get in, and bang they are mine. The studying of my opponents I do, so I can counter there moves and go from there. Anton, you know what I am capable of, your know I know what I am saying is true. You know deep down I am actually not trying to fuck with you. You don't see me cutting you down like I have with numerous others. I am actually talking to you. I am actually coming out and not ripping you apart verbally like I would everyone else. You know why, because truth be told. I like you, every promo you cut I am right at the TV watching. Everything you say, I am watching intently. However it ends so quickly that I am disappointed that it ended so quickly and wanting more. Man, I want you to become a force to be reckoned with here."

Codair takes a drag off his cigarette.

"For years, I was the ultimate underdog anywhere I was, why because I would not speak up. I would not stand up, I would not rise above the crowd. I was to busy playing to the hacks fucking wishes and getting nowhere for it. That is when I raised up a middle finger and started doing things my way. Now, I am one of the most controversial wrestlers alive, one of the most respected, and a wrestler that any owner and promoter wants. You know why, I bring money, and I did it my way. No one else's. I get fired from here, I could have a job that night, because all the head hunters would be all over it. I got open contracts in japan, Europe, south America, and a few places here in the states. You know why, cause I got talent, and I got the balls to say what I want and how I want. I don't regard feelings and I tell it how I see it. Yeah, I may exaggerate details greatly, such as Nikki Walton being a hooker and all that shit, however that's to get a reaction. I can drive best out of anyone, and I can also drive the worse, that is a talent I have and will have for the rest of my life. That is something that is not earned over night, that is something you learn. Something you gain, something you inherit. You know how, look around. What do you see, go with that."

Codair shakes his head

"I make or break people, bring the worst or the best. Because that is how I am. I say what I want, what I please and no one tries to stop me because I am a huge draw because of it. You know why, you know why that is. Because every fan out there wishes they could do that to their boss. Or the stuck up bitch they gotta work with and get away with it and not get slapped with a friggen lawsuit. Do I lack class, most times. However sit down and talk to me anytime and you will be pleasantly surprised that I am a well educated, well versed individual when it comes to music, art, philosophy,literature, and also I can hold my own cooking. Shocking huh, a guy that everyone views as a bastard can be insightful."

Codair takes a drag off his cigarette.

"Here is an in site Anton, full of potential with no outlet, and the Establishment pushing you down. I know you got the suits in your ear telling you things like actions speak louder then words, guess what that's bullshit. Your talent will soon be show cased, again bullshit. We will make you great, again bull fucking shit. Fact is, I see the there thumb pushing you down and making you a whole lot less then what you truly are. You are just screaming to unload, and honestly. I want you to beat me. I want you to come to that ring with everything you got and I wanna see if you can beat me. I wanna see if you got the drive to put me down. Just to give you incentive."

Codair reaches over off screen and picks up The Hybrid Championship.

"I will put this on the line against you if you beat me this week at war, and I don't give a fuck what channels I have to go through to make it happen. You see Anton, I am one of the few people in this industry that is a man of his word, and I promise you, I am a man of my word. I have no problem making that shit happen by any means necessary. If you can take me, the next time we meet, I will be defending it against you. No this is not confidence that you can't beat me. This is incentive. This is me waving a carrot to the horse that is gonna take me 100 miles away, this is potentially your future. This is me pushing you the way you need to be pushed. That you been begging to be pushed."

Codair takes a drag off his cigarette.

"This is not a false promise, I got no problem humiliating anyone throws in front of me before you get the opportunity should you beat me this week. I want you at your best, and this is how I am going to get it. Imagine it, Anton Chase beats TJ Codair fair and square 1...2...3. Amazing thought huh, your career would sky rocket in an instant. You would be put on a pedestal here. Everyone would want to know how you done it. Well kid, time for you to find that inner spirit of yours and come at me harder then you have come at anyone before. I believe you can do it, don't make me an ass for actually believing in you."

The scene ends

[Deleted]

[The scene opens up and we are inside of a hotel room, the bed backed up against the wall, the couch can be seen, a coffee table next to it, a chest of draws on the other side of the hotel room. A few seconds later Anton Chase comes on screen. Anton who is wearing a black t-shirt and some blue jeans, Anton sits on the couch and leans back]

Anton Chase: A few days ago I had a match at High Stakes pay-per-view in a fatal four way main event Lottery match, in the end David Wilson got the victory or to be exact, he got lucky. Now he has the chance to change the PWX dynamic with that Lottery in his back pocket, he will most likely do some evil shit with it but for now I can't do anything. The only thing I need to do now is to look ahead for my match this week on ADR73 with the newly crowned Hybrid Champion, TJ Codair.

[Anton takes a short breath]

Anton Chase: From what I understand TJ Codair asked for this match, TJ Codair could have chosen anyone but he went to the booking committee and ask for me personally. That I am surprised with, I can admit to myself that recently I haven't been all there, I can admit that. Other situations in other promotions have caused me lose something in me, faith, trust, whatever it maybe. I have lost that edge of mine. I don't ever expect to be given anything in this business but when you have been continually screwed over for championships and spots on a card, it can weigh on you. But I am looking for that new beginning, that fresh start, that edge of mine, because you don't lose something like that, it just fades away for while.

[Anton looks into the camera]

Anton Chase: But having this match, I am sure that my edge will come back, my edge will return. You see TJ we never have actually met in the ring, we've always walk past each other in the back and give each other that one look, and that look is a mark of respect. You know it and I know it. But TJ thanks for the kind words man, but I don't need anyone to believe in me, I believe in myself, I trust in myself to dig myself out of this darkness and I will rise to the occasion. The scary thing is are any of you really want me to be the force I was? Or are you just showing me the respect, because I have let others whisper in my ear for far too long now, not getting anything in return, getting screwed over or jumped from behind in this place and not a damn thing has been done, no consequences have been given out. People running rugshot in groups being cowards. I should be the guy I was first when I stepped foot into PWX, that guy that beat John Pariah, James Silkk, and many others was placed under my boot. That is the guy I need to be.

[Anton pauses]

Anton Chase: You're right TJ my mental state prior to High Stakes was low, everything weighing in on me, but the second High Stakes was over and I headed back to my hotel room, I was psyching myself out of this funk I was in because I cannot take it anymore. ADR73 the force you want me to be, you're going to get in first hand. Now this match non-title match which I am going to grab this opportunity and run with it.TJ Codair, you and I are worldly experienced, traveled everywhere, we are names in wrestling, this isn't just any match, this is a match that both of us need to find out who is better. And TJ you're promo hasn't affected me as you may think, I have no doubt. I have no fear. I have one goal-one mission in mind and that is walking away with a "W".

[Anton smiles into the camera]

Anton Chase: Now TJ I hope you are a man of your word and when I beat you at ADR73 that you do whatever it takes and give me a title shot, that you put the Hybrid title on the line against me, and see it come back around my waist. Because when I am across the ring from you, I will have hunger, I will have fire again and I will be GUNNING for you. I will be gunning for a shot at the Hybrid title and what way to get it by beating you in this none-title match.

[Anton rubs his hands together]

Anton Chase: I have needed a incentive for a long while in PWX, and even though I am the first guy in the building and last guy to leave, nothing came my way, yet asshole's who come and go receive everything because of who they have aligned themselves with. Yet 99.9% of fans came to see yours truly Anton Chase do what he does better than anyone else, wrestle. TJ Codair, you've questioned me being a wrestling god, soon you're going to get firsthand look at why I call myself a wrestling god, why I can do better than anyone, you see TJ questioning me in a wrestling ring is like questioning LeBron James on a Basketball court, it shouldn't be done. Now I know you've got a few years ahead of me, which is why I'm going to win.

[Anton places his arms down]

Anton Chase: I am going to win because of my speed, because of my aerial ability, because I can do everything you can do...but better. That is why when it comes to technical ability, I fucking own. I will be one step ahead every second of our match, because I am a student of the game, by the time we meet, I will have watched everything you have ever done. I will have a counter for every move you have, mentally and physically prepared and out of this funk, this bad aurora that surrounds me will disappear and everyone will see me climb back to the top. I am no jobber TJ, I am a star, I belong at the top, nobody is going to stop me climbing that ladder again, it starts with you, regaining my Hybrid title, and giving everyone the middle finger while I get what I want.

[Anton pauses]

Anton Chase: Everyone will be watching our match, just like everyone watches whatever match I am in, they will be glued to their TV sets or device to see the outcome. But I can already tell you the outcome TJ, it's me standing over your body with my arm raised and a smile on my face. Knowing that I have just earned my Hybrid title shot, and I do hope you're a man of your word. I'm glad that I am going toe-to-toe with you TJ whether the Hybrid title is on the line or not, because I know I can beat you, just like I knew I could beat John Pariah, James Silkk, I know I was better. Now we find out who's better? Spoiler alert, you're looking at the guy who is better, in just a few days it will be FACT.

[Anton pauses]

Anton Chase: In just a few days I will be the force I was when I first stepped foot into PWX, TJ Codair will be the first victim and then everyone else who steps in front of me, believe it, ADR73 I walk out with a win, TJ Codair see you soon old man.

[The scene fades to black]
