I am the true master of destiny. No matter what happens. You got certain people running their mouth about me. I may have lost at XX to Matt Sharp but I have no shame to that. He was truly the master that night and me the mere apprentice. The battle was a hard-fought one and he deserved the victory. It really was unlucky for me that night.

Nothing but respect even if I am hurting and banged up going into my next match. But like the saying goes on, The show must go on. It's just another day in the office.

I am coming for the Hart title even if it kills me in the process. Mark Brooks wants to talk about my past. Let's talk about my past. Former World Champion and X-Treme Champion. Yeah, I failed at my quest for the Tag Titles in 2017 because my partner couldn't cut the mustard. Not his fault. I was one of the few to stand up against the most dominant faction I have ever encountered in The Kings. Who else had the balls but me?

Funny how you brought that up. I got history here dating back to 2008. People know who the fuck I am when I enter the room. They don't know you. To them, you might as well be the leader of the lollipop guild. Oh, shit? Did I go there? When all is said and done, you will have got your ass beat by a guy who dresses like a cat.

Centurion, My brother. You and I have the most history outside of anybody else in this match. Dating back to 2008. God, we are old. Got nothing but respect for you. You are 42 and are somewhat past your prime. Some might say I am a good 5 or so years past mine but that's okay. I am damaged goods as you say but I come back for more.

Maybe the dreams are just that and it's my job to make them a reality for the fans. Their loyal servant will see their dreams realized and that is Barney Green challenging for the Hart Title.

The Scullman is going see first hand what I am capable of. Even with missing an eye and having a bad right knee, I will still kick his ass like Patrick Swayze in Roadhouse. Another good movie that I enjoy watching from time to time.

Azrael Erebus has said nothing because they know I got this in the bag. I can out-talk and out-think just about anybody in this match. I can spit bars like they are nothing. Let's see if I still got that ability.

Its a gang bang,
But not that type,
Drink some tang,
Smoke a pipe,
I got that fang.


Not that good but we can roll with it like its chocolate cake. As I slam down a piece on the flight back to Belfast. Riding solo because Ryou and I went our separate ways. He is heading back to New York City and I thanked him for coming along on this journey with me.

Without him stepping in, He wouldn't have awakened that beast that laid dormant within me. I don't have the struggles that he had in life but there is some darkness within.

Maybe I should talk about something else like tgirls and how hot they are. Maybe I Should talk about dressing like a catboy and walking around town. No fuck's given. What are people gonna really do to me? I am a legend in some areas of Boston.

Picking a fight with me is like picking a fight with cancer. You may win the first few battles but eventually, you will face mortality and die. I'm that cancer that slowly sneaks its way to the top when you aren't looking.

This is my destiny and I will roll that dice one final time for this match. Its do or die time. You got two members of a dying breed squaring off for one last shot at redemption and two newer members from this era staring us down. You want your shot. You wanna call a hit on me. Bring it. I am staring you down with my good eye ready for war. To quote my good friend, "It will be unlucky............for...........you..........."


The scene opens up inside of Belfast, Ireland and we see Barney Green, dressed in a lime green t-shirt with black shorts and black sneakers, standing on the street next to a red Chevy Cruze. Next to him is John Laurinaitis, who is dressed in a navy blue shirt and blue khakis with black sneakers. John goes to speak.

John: You ready for this, champ? I know you have had a busy week. I got to stay up here and take care of some business for you.

Barney: I am ready. Little banged up but I can still go.

John: Just remember, champ. It's a new day and you got this.

John pauses as Barney goes to speak.

Barney: Thanks, John. I appreciate the fact you stayed behind in Ireland and got a hotel room booked quickly for me to crash for a few hours before the show.

John: I'm here to serve. People Power will run rampant again in XWF.

Barney: You're damn right it will.

Barney stops talking as John goes to speak.

John: Let's get to the hotel and relax a little bit. You did good in the gym today. We got 3 hours before we gotta be at Warfare. Get yourself nice and relaxed beforehand. Keep your body loose.

Barney: Sounds like a solid plan.

Barney and John climb into the car. John is behind the wheel and Barney is riding shotgun. John starts up the car and heads towards the hotel as Barney goes to speak.

Barney: I will get through this hell of a schedule and never do this again. I don't even know how I am standing at this point.

John: You got that warrior's heart within you, champ. It's not always about conquering everything in sight. When you started using my move to finish matches, I was honored. You are a great fighter with an even bigger heart within you.

John makes a left turn down the street as Barney takes a sip from his water bottle. Barney goes to speak again.

Barney: I am thankful you have stayed with me even after People Power Academy failed.

John: I wouldn't abandon somebody over a freak accident. Times change and sometimes people do get offended over things they shouldn't.

Barney: I do regret what happened and I still feel I was a trailblazer back then opening doors that were closed for people.

Barney pauses as John goes to speak.

John: There were a few in my day but they were never open because it wasn't allowed and accepted like it is nowadays. You probably did face your share of discrimination and comments.

Barney: You are damn right I did.

John: That's the spirit, champ. You got this.

Barney: I am ready for Warfare even if hopping on a plane every other day has been hell on me. Having to sleep on the plane.

Barney reaches for his water bottle and takes another swig as John continues driving to the hotel. John goes to speak.

John: Welcome back to the olden days except back then, we drove everywhere.

Barney: I remember my day's breaking into the business. Getting paid enough in gas just to get home and whatnot. Having to eat that famous gas station burrito or cheeseburger. Whatever was the cheapest.

John: Amen to that. So what is it with the Madonna theme, anyway?

John pulls the car into the hotel parking as Barney goes to speak.

Barney: It's simple. I felt the aesthetics of seeing a guy coming out to a Madonna song and having the crowd sing along was pretty funny honestly. It defined me though because I had OCD when it came to picking themes. Every 6 months, something new would bring me to the ring.

John: I get it. It does fit somewhat.

Barney: I also tend to like female musicians more and that's where I draw my strength to a degree. Get inspired.

John parks the car in a spot. Barney climbs out and so does John after he shuts off the car. They head inside the hotel and start walking towards the elevator. John goes to speak.

John: That makes sense. Whatever works for you, champ.

Barney: Exactly. It's like my old trainer used to say, "Whatever you are doing, keep doing it as it works for you."

John: Exactly. Every person is different and learns differently. Just do whatever works for you. We are both trained wrestlers and have traveled down that same road together. No need for me to give you advice on how to improve as we both know what you need to do. I am just here as a sparring partner.

The scene fades to black as they continue to talk.
