The scene opens up with Markus Reeves sitting at a table in a finely pressed suit. There is murmering in the crowd about what is about to happen with Markus Reeves.


Markus Reeves: Thank you all for coming to this press conference on such short notice. I'm sure you are all wondering why I have called you to this press conference and I really don't want to waste any more of your time. I brought you all here to announce that as soon as any commitment to SCW is complete and not nessasarily after Sunday but I will be retiring in the near future.


The press erupts into loud chatter.


Press Member 1: When did you come to this decision?


Markus Reeves: About twenty-four hours ago, I realized that I was doing a disservice to my reputation as a wrestler by going out and putting on subpar performances. I realized that I should probably have never come back since I'm so old. I realized quickly that this is a young persons game that there isn't really room for fossils in the ring.


Press Member 2: What are you going to do with your newfound free time?


Markus Reeves: I'm going to go back to running my company in all of it's day to day operations and then I'm going to spend more time with my daughter Miyoko and son Teddy Steele and whatever hyphen is using with it. I might even decide to open up my own wrestling school.


Press Member 3: What made you decide to retire?


Markus Reeves: The fights with my daughter. I realized I was neglecting spending time with her and it was mainly because I have been on the road so much as of late and I really don't need anyone else hating me at this point.


Press Member 4: What will you do if you win on Sunday?


Markus Reeves: I'll hang around and try and become number one contender for the World Championship.

Press Member 4: What will you do if you become number one contender?


Markus Reeves: Then I'll postpone my retirement and win the fucking title. Anymore brainbusters?


Press Member 4: What will you do if you win the championship?


Markus Reeves: I'm going to hold a victory parade as if I won the fucking Super Bowl and then I'm going to party so hard that I'll probably burn whatever town I'm in to the ground.


Press Member 4: So saying all this shit happens, what are you going to do when or if you drop the title?


Markus Reeves: First I'm going to reflect on my long career and think of what else I could have done, next I'm going to take your mother out for a nice sea food dinner and then never call her again.


Press Member 4: That seems like you are taking things a little too far.


Markus Reeves: Shut your cake hole fat fuck, I wasn't done yet. After that I'm not going to call her for a couple of weeks and make her think that she fucked things up, then I'm going to call her and have her come back to my place and then I'm going to fuck her in the ass like the whore she is and there is nothing you can do about it because if your fat fucking ass tries to intervene you will probably get winded and have a fucking heart attack. After I get done banging your mother and you die of a heart attack because you have actual pieces of bacon clogging your arteries, then I'm going to go home and be a family man. Anymore fucking questions?


Press Member 5: What are your thoughts on your opponents this week?


Markus Reeves: They both fucking suck.


Press Member 5: Could you elaborate further on what you mean?


Markus Reeves: Sure, they suck like a black hole, once something gets close enough to their suck they will never escape. They also suck harder than the fourth guy who asked me questions mom and trust me, she could suck the chrome off a trailer hitch. Anymore questions?


The media is now silent


Markus Reeves: Good, now I have a few people I would like to thank from my career. I would like to thank the owners of SCW for the opportunity to return to wrestling, I would like to thank Congo the Destroyer and XHF for giving me my first opportunity as wrestling for a major company and I would like to thank NCW for giving me my greatest successes of my career. I would like to thank the following people also. First I would like to thank Diamond Dallas Kanyon for being a mentor to me when I first got to XHF. I would like to thank Joe Everyman for being Donald Trump to my Hillary Clinton. I did a lot of crazy shady shit while in nCw but you always found a way to do something even dumber to take the heat off of me. Last of all I would like to thank Pagnus for being the greatest panda to ever live and being a great mascot for XHF. Actually I do have one more person I woud like to thank and that is Leonard Fox for coming to his freaking senses and declaring my thirty second title reign as valid meaning I was an official nCw Heavyweight Champion and thus making me a world champion before Joe Everyman allowing me to be better than Everyman one final time. This conference is over.


Markus stands up with the nCw World title around his waist and he walks off the stage as the scene fades to black



Well boys and girls this could be the final match of my career and I'm okay with it. This time I get to go out on my terms instead of being cast off into free agency after my last fed closed. Who do I have the honor of facing you may ask? Well I get to face the giant skin head Casey Williams and some dude named Dimitri.


I'll start with Dimitri the Russian Vampire, I don't get how you work. How do you have enough time to wrestling, drink vodka and suck dick with there only being twenty four hours in a day. Wait I didn't mean dick I meant blood. I have to remember that not all vampires are sparkly, cock suckers like in Twilight. I'm not worried about being bit by you because even though you are a stupid fucking Russian you aren't stupid enough to bite a legend. No, I'm more worried that you might have gotten yourself involved with the Russian Olympic team and got yourself shot up with some performance enchancing drugs. See I'm worried that I'm going to get fucked out of my last match by some gassed up Russian piece of shit.


Now Dimitri, I said during my press conference that you suck and I mean that truly, I don't give a shit if you say that you are going to bring some sort of violence against me because I created violence. I've practically been wrestling since Jesus was around. I created violence, I formed violence and I perfected violence. Bring your version of violence because it's not going to be better than mine. I'm going to knock your fangs down your throat and make you drink your own blood. I'm going to make you wish you were never born or ever left that shit hole Russia. You are going to be the biggest disappointment to go into Russia since the Nazi army tried to invade Russia in the winter and I'm sure after I embarrass your stupid ass on Sunday, Putin will probably put out hit on you and we will never have to see you again.



Now onto my other opponent Casey Williams, who is the only man in this company that can compare to me physically. The only difference is that he is absolute trash, I mean this guy is worse than Dimitri and he thinks his bible verses are going to save him. Casey you look like the after affects of what happens when you go on some super serious steroid regiment but you only inject into your dick. You look seriously look like a roided out penis. If I was you I would grow some hair out or something otherwise everyone is going to make fun of you. Sorry Casey, your bible verses are going to be nothing but empty words when I get done with you, I'm going to go out and show that your biblical light can't compete with me and Satan behind me. However your bible verses however did remind me of my favorite bible verse, the one I used to quote when I was going to go out and shed some blood in the middle of the ring, you know go and do some cold blooded monster shit. That quote is Ezekiel 25:17


Markus clears his throat


The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee.


I plan on going out and commiting an act of ultra violence, if everything goes the way I think it will it will end up with me winning this match and then going to jail for murdering to never was fucks named Dimitri and Casey Williams. If this is my last match, I'm going to put everything I have into it and if that means losing a limb or bleeding a little bit than so be it.


Now some people have asked me if this is truly it, if I lose is this the last match I ever wrestle. I'll say yes but I'll also so to never say never, I may retire but if the right opportunity arises, you might see me again some day and somewhere. I'll finish this up by doing something my mentor Diamond Dallas Kanyon would do.


Markus runs at the camera guy and spears him, the camera guy drops the camera which is now facing up towards the ceiling. Markus stands over the camera and makes a diamond with his hands


Markus Reeves: BANG!

  This abomination won't see the end of days
Sit throne of lies, torn
By the voice up high
Death was only a dream
Not devastating disaster
The rights of passage
The past we can't alter, fuck you, you
And the horse that you rode in on, just sit there
And be silent as the grave
You've come out this time, smelling just like roses
I sit there, watch, while I drink my wine

The weight of your sins and the evil beneath us
Will surely drag you down,
The axe shall fall
On the one-winged angel, breaking the spell
would you break this fall?
For he, who sins against his kind
The axe shall fall








The scene opens up with Markus Reeves sitting at a table with his daughter and fellow professional wrestler Miyoko Oshiro. The two of them sit awkwardly as Markus takes a drink of water and then tries to initiate conversation.



Markus Reeves: So...do you want to talk about what happened on the Maury show?



Miyoko Oshiro: No not really.



Markus Reeves: Okay.



Miyoko Oshiro: Okay fine, did you really have to father him?



Markus Reeves: What's wrong with Todd?



Miyoko Oshiro: Nothing is wrong with Todd, it's who he is married to.



Markus Reeves: Yeah, I'm not really happy about that either but I don't really have any other choice. I said that I would be there for any children I might have and I am a man of my word.



Miyoko Oshiro: Have you ever had any planned children dad?



Markus Reeves: No, I don't believe I have. I lived a hard and fast life and I didn't ever really try and settle down. I basically just screwed around and I mean literally screwed around in just about every town I ever went to.



Miyoko Oshiro: Jesus dad you are just awful.



Markus Reeves: Was, I don't do that anymore. I mean if you look none of the children that have some forward are under the age of twenty-one.



Miyoko Oshiro: Maybe it's time for you to go to the doctor.



Markus Reeves: What for?



Miyoko Oshiro: To get the old snip so that maybe you can quit having bastard children all over the world.



Markus Reeves: Might be a good idea but I don't know if I can since I'm wrestling full time again.



Miyoko Oshiro: Well if that's the case maybe you need to start wearing condoms. God, I can't believe I'm having the talk with my dad.



Markus Reeves: Can't, I'm allergic to latex.



Miyoko Oshiro: They make condoms that don't use latex.



Markus Reeves: I'm allergic to goat skin too.



Miyoko Oshiro: Bullshit, I bet you aren't even allergic to latex either.



Markus Reeves: Well if we are being truthful no I'm not allergic to latex. I just said that I was so I didn't have to wear them, I don't like the way they feel.



Miyoko Oshiro: That's really messed up dad, I really can't believe what I'm hearing.



Markus Reeves: I'm sorry okay and I promise I won't have sex with anyone that you know. Are you still friends with Skye Sparks?



Miyoko Oshiro: Yes.



Markus Reeves: Damn.



Miyoko Oshiro: Are you serious? Were you really going to try and make a pass at her?



Markus Reeves: It was worth a try.



Miyoko Oshiro: You know that Skye and her sister are like half your age right?



Markus Reeves: Yeah and that's why I would be doing it. I need to meet younger chicks to make me feel younger.



Miyoko Oshiro: So this is because you have completely realized that you are old and it really bothers you.



Markus Reeves: Exactly.



Miyoko Oshiro: What about Kenzi Grey?



Markus Reeves: Can't.



Miyoko Oshiro: Why not?



Markus Reeves: Because I'm pretty sure I slept with her mother many years ago and I'm worried that Kenzi is another child of mine.



Miyoko Oshiro: Jesus Christ, is there anyone that you haven't slept with.



Markus Reeves: Diana Riggs.



Miyoko Oshiro: It was more of a rhetorical question.



Markus Reeves: I know but I did want to point out that I haven't slept with her.



Miyoko Oshiro: I guess since we are talking about this anyway is there anyone else?



Markus Reeves: The Queen mum. Now that I think about it those might be the only two I haven't been with.



Miyoko Oshiro: That's really gross.



Markus Reeves: I'm only kidding. There are a bunch more that I haven't been with. I'm just screwing with you. I keep forgetting to ask, how are things with you and your boyfriend?



Miyoko Oshiro: I broke up with him.



Markus Reeves: How come?



Miyoko Oshiro: Caught him screwing my friend from high school who came to see me.



Markus pulls out a knife and clicks a button and it opens revealing a seven-inch blade



Markus Reeves: You don't say?



Miyoko Oshiro: No its really okay dad, I already kicked his ass, you don't need to fillet him.



Markus puts the knife away



Markus Reeves: Are there any other prospects for you?



Miyoko Oshiro: No, I'm just going to avoid dating, for the time being, I'm going to focus on wrestling and that's about it, I don't have time to deal with these assholes that inhabit the Earth.



Markus Reeves: That's fair enough. When you were with him were you at least being safe?



Miyoko laughs and wipes a tear from her right eye



Miyoko Oshiro: Wait, is the king of not wearing protection asking me if I'm being safe?



Markus Reeves: Yeah, it's kind of what dads do.



Miyoko Oshiro: Yes I am because I don't really want my career derailed by some jackass who can't pull out.



Markus Reeves: Okay good, I'm glad you are learning from my mistakes.



Miyoko Oshiro: Wow I didn't even really notice that I actually am. I'm using protection because I don't want to have happen to me what happened to you. I guess I really owe you a big thanks.



Markus Reeves: You are welcome Miyoko. I'm glad I could actually be helpful to you. Are you going to be at the show on Sunday?



Miyoko Oshiro: I wouldn't miss it for the world.



Markus Reeves: Good, I'm glad to hear. I got a luxury box for you and your friends to enjoy the show in.



Miyoko Oshiro: Thank you again, dad. I love you.



Markus Reeves: I love you too kiddo. Ready to get out of here?



Miyoko Oshiro: Yeah



Markus and Miyoko get up and leave when Markus asks Miyoko another question.



Markus Reeves: What is Skye's sister like?



Miyoko Oshiro: I've been told she is a total nympho and a bitch who looks disinterested all the time.



Markus Reeves: That's hot.



Miyoko Oshiro: That's gross.



The scene fades to black











Fuck yeah, it's great to be back after having a few weeks off to charge my batteries and boy am I ready to kick some fucking ass. Now the last time you saw me I was tapping out to Kale Smith and that truly was an embarrassing sight. I keep kicking myself knowing that I lost to someone who basically did nothing by yell MAAAAAAATE like some fuck head with brain damage. No, that situation was super embarrassing and I don't plan on letting something like that happen again.





Now I just need to put that match behind me so I can focus on what really matters and that's the man they call Rage and the chance at getting my hands on what I came to Sin City Wrestling for and that's a little bit of gold. Now I said a little earlier this week on Twitter that I was going to come and take what I feel is mine and the wordsmith Rage came back with everything that he is worth and said that I ain't going to take the title away from him. You see that's what I love the best Rage, I'm glad that you aren't going to just allow me to take the title from you without a fight, instead I'm going to have to do what I do best and pose my physical will against you and forcefully take the title away from you.





Now go ahead and feel like you accomplished something because you beat sorry ass, Matt Spears, to retain your title.



Markus holds up his pinky finger





Just know that I have more fight in my little finger than Spears has in his entire fucking body. Just because you were able to go out and defeat him and because I lost to a mentally incompetent Australian doesn't mean that this match against me is going to be a walk in the fucking park for you. No, in fact, it's going to be worse, it's going to be Hell, it's going to be war. I realized since I got here I've been taking it on people, you know because for some fucking reason, I was trying my best not to offend people here or the fans that watch the show. Nah at this point I don't care about that anymore and if Christian Underwood and Mark Ward have a problem with what I say or how I conduct myself in the ring then I will invite them down to the ring and allow them to say it to my face. Don't get me wrong I'll probably disagree with them and I'll probably end up beating the shit out of both of them and then I'll probably get suspended but at this point in my life, I'm not going to change who I am to appease these little pussies.





Now, where do I begin with you Rage, maybe I'll start right there with your name, I hope to the Flying Spaghetti Monster that Rage isn't your real name because if it is, it quickly goes to the top as the stupidest fucking name I have ever heard and that includes my newly discovered son hyphenating his name to include his wife's name. Yeah, my son is such a bitch that he combined his name with his wife's name and even with him being that big of a bitch his name still isn't as fucking stupid as your name is. Now if it isn't your name it sounds like the kind of name that a silver spoon licking trust fund baby would choose as a nickname to try and sound more dangerous or to show the other kids that he is more than some spoiled little fuck, or maybe you just chose the name because you are fucking douche bag





Now while I'm on the douche bag thought you definitely have all the markings of a douche bag, from your shiny bald head to your six-foot long goatee to the tribal tattoos. Boy if you being covered in tribal tattoos is a sure sign of you being a giant fucking douche bag than I don't know what is. Hell with the look that you are putting on you are so very close to the douche bag hall of fame and trust me I have associated myself with my fair share of them over the years.





Now Rage, if you are looking to complete your douche bag look to the best of your abilities may I make a few recommendations. First, you have a great running head start at being the biggest douche bag I have ever seen with your bald ass head and your tribal tats. Now the next thing you have to add to your wardrobe to enhance your look is skinny jeans. Yes, Rage, that's right, skinny jeans are just for latte sipping hipsters anymore, they are the quintessential look for the raging douche bag in the year twenty sixteen. Now if you want to pull this look off you need to find the skinniest jeans you can find. I'm talking ones so tight that to get them on you will need fifteen sticks of butter and a crowbar and the only way to get them off is to have them removed by a doctor who is trying to perform surgery after you crashed your Mazda Miata after having a couple too many wine coolers. I mean jeans so tight that they will leave little to the imagination and when I say little I mean field mouse small.





Now before I get to far along I want to talk to you bout those tattoos, there is really only two kinds of people that get tribal tattoos. The two choices are that you got them because you joined a cult who also got similar tattoos and you did it to fit in. I mean this is a pretty good reason to get one, nothing like a whole bunch of fuck heads walking down the street showing off that they are all giant dill holes. The only other reason I can think of is a little more dark and sinister and I don't mean because you think that you are dark and sinister with all this seven deadly sins bullshit that you are talking about. No, I think it's something more like why most people get tattoos and that's because you are a giant ass clown who couldn't think of any better tattoo to get and yet still wanted to get a tattoo without getting something with some meaning.  Rage, I'm going to give you a round of applause for actually allowing someone and probably paying for them to give you the international brand of the douche bag,





Now there is only one more thing you can add to your ensemble to allow you in the douche bag hall of fame on the first ballot and that is adding the never fashionable old school Tap Out shirt. I don't mean one of those ones that you can find at Walmart, I mean one of the old ones that all of the mixed martial art fighters used to wear to the cage. If you can find one of those old ones and in good condition that would just be the cherry on top of your douche bag sundae.





Now there is one thing that I forgot to mention up until this point and its kind of an important one. Now I know for a fact that I'm an asshole, this isn't a secret at all but you sir Rage and I used the sir term very loosely because quite honestly you aren't one. Now it was brought to my attention that you have in fact power bombed a woman before. Now I don't know much about this situation other than it happened. I don't know if it was in a sanctioned match or if you attacked her outside of a match. Either way, it's a  super fucked up thing. If I had any respect for you and trust me I don't, it would be gone at this point. It's never okay to put your hands on a woman like that you dickless little fuck. Based purely on this information it will be my pleasure beating the shit out of you because someone who is willing to harm a woman doesn't deserve to be a champion. Hell, the only thing you deserve is the beating that I'm going to give you on Sunday and to be unemployed like Ray Rice and Greg Hardy. I'm going to enjoy beating you stupid, I'm going to do it for every woman that has been abused by assholes like you and I'm going to show everyone in the world what happens to people that abuse women.



Now I've thrown a little bit of shade towards you as the kids are saying these days but honestly this match isn't about that. This match is about me, going out and dominating you in ways that you can't imagine and me finally putting a Sin City Wrestling championship around my waist. You know there is nothing better than putting a gaudy gold belt encrusted with every gem under the sun on it around my waist on Sunday. You see Rage if you even so much a slip a little bit and I'll take advantage of it and I'll make you fucking pay for it. You see Rage, you have faced plenty of good wrestlers in your career but you have never wrestled anyone like me, you haven't wrestled someone who will actually be willing to die if it means winning the match. Take these last few days to prepare yourself for all-out nuclear war because I'm going to come and give you everything I have and I'm going to walk out of the show Sunday with the Internet Championship around my waist. See you Sunday fuck head.  

 Man, what the fuck are you even talking about Alex. Ninety percent of what you just said makes zero fucking sense. It's almost like you are child with ADHD and instead of someone giving you your medication to either calm you down or make you focus they instead gave you crack cocaine. You know if you don't learn to focus at least a little bit, you will get killed in the ring and I won't feel sorry for you whether it's me who does it or someone else. From what I saw you basically aren't taking this match seriously and frankly I don't really care if you do. It will only make it easier for me to defeat you and move onto opponents that are actually worth my time instead of an overgrown man child trapped in a twelve year old girls body.


Maybe you are right, maybe the stuff I say is all played out and old school but guess what, talking isn't what matters mate. It's what we do in the ring and there isn't anyone better in the ring than myself and do you know why that is? It's really simple Alex, I've been doing some form of combative sport since before you were born. I knew that I was destined to become a professional wrestler so I started training at young age and now that I'm almost fifty years old, I've seen a lot and experienced a  lot in the ring. You see, you tried to learn sumo wrestling, tell me Alex, what exactly is that going to do for you besides run you head first into a brick wall such as myself? Go head, learn kung fu, it's not going to do anything against someone my size because unless you find yourself on a step ladder in the ring you aren't going to be able to kick me in the head or anything like that.


I've been around a long time Alex, I start wrestling while you were still shitting yourself and well at least the first time. For all I know you still shit yourself since you seem to do nothing but party all the time. I've plenty of time to hone my skills in the wrestling ring and I can adapt to pretty much any situation in the ring. If you want to go to the top rope, I'll be there to catch you and power bomb you. If you are trying to run away from, I'll start targeting your legs with either well placed kicks or with submission moves and if you try and do the stupid thing and get into a brawl with me, well I'll just tell you now, that wont go well for you. See I'm really good at multiple disciplines in the wrestling business but if there is one that I'm better at than any other and that's throwing wicked right hands. I can't think of another person that I have ever come across that can throw punches like I can.


You're probably right, I should have retired by now but we both know that wrestlers never really retire until it's too late and I'm no different. I've “retired” several times but I always come back and that's because I love the business even when the business doesn't always love me back. You see it's the passion to be in front of the fans whether they love me or hate me that keeps me going. I don't see the same passion from you. I feel that you are in wrestling as something to do between releasing music and going on tour around the five bars that have dozens of people who actually want to listen to your shit music. You may have grown up a wrestling fan but I don't believe for one second that you care about being a wrestler outside of being able to tell people that you are wrestler.


Go ahead and make fun what I do to get ready for a match, lifting weights and practicing moves is still a lot better than doing cocaine and fucking Thai lady boys like you are. I'm trying to keep this machine ready to go just in case you turn into the little bitch that I know you are and you try and run away from me instead of fighting me like a man. It's okay Alex, I'm not going to judge you too harshly for being a little chicken shit of a human being and not wanting to go toe to toe with a monster such as myself. Trust me there are plenty of people who I have wrestled that are much bigger than you are who were scared shitless of having to face me in a match but just remember, I can't kill otherwise I'll get disqualified and lose the match and come pinfall, submission or DQ, there is no fucking way I'm going to lose to a little shit stain like you.


I'm looking forward to shutting you up and embarrassing at Into The Void five, for all of your friends and family to see. You know all ten of them that actually give a shit about you. After this match maybe you will just away and go back to having orgies with animals and doing sex tapes with celebrities that people have long since forgotten about. I'm going to physically dominate you on Sunday and I'll just make another claim that I'm here to stay and that even in my advanced age I'm still the most physically dominate wrestler in the game today. So lookout Sin City Wrestling, I'm coming for every single one of you and it continues this Sunday against Alex Rush, God's gift to mediocrity.


The scene opens up with the opening intro to Rough Bumps episode three. After the credits finish the scene shows Markus Reeves sitting in a room with Jessi Burke.







Jessi Burke: Just how many kids do you have?



Markus Reeves: Let's see, Miyoko, Hideki, Krystyna and Apollo. Those are the one's that I know for a fact.



Jessi Burke: Apollo is the one that you gave up for adoption right?


Markus Reeves: Yes.



Jessi Burke: Why did you give him up for adoption?



Markus Reeves: Because myself and the mother weren't in a good place at the time. I was still really young and was trying to make a break into big time professional wrestling and his mother was a crack whore. Oops am I allowed to say that on TV?


Jessi Burke: We'll just edit it out later.


Markus Reeves: Okay and the main reason I gave him up was because his mother was going to trade him for pound of cocaine and I don't mean that figuratively. She had the deal in place before I snatched him and took him to the hospital.


Jessi Burke: That's really awful to hear.


Markus Reeves: It really was and I wish I had done things differently.


Jessi Burke: How so?


Markus Reeves: I would have kept him and cared for him while on the road. I feel so shitty now knowing that I wasn't around during any of my kids childhood and even though I'm doing a good job now of being there for them, I still feel awful for not being there for them during their whole lives.


Jessi Burke: At least we have it narrowed down to being a professional wrestler.


Markus Reeves: True but how many black professional wrestlers are there in the world.


Jessi Burke: A bunch.


Markus Reeves: Hopefully there is one out there somewhere also looking for their long lost dad and it will make this whole thing a lot easier.


Jessi Burke: That would be nice but none the less I will be putting out my best scouts to try and find this person. What do you think he looks like?


Markus Reeves: I don't know to be honest with you, I'm guessing a black guy that looks like me with dreadlocks, outside of that I have no idea.


Jessi Burke: That's not a lot to on but I do have private detective that should still be able to track him down.


Markus Reeves: What is the PI's name?


Jessi Burke: Nick Valentine.


Markus Reeves: Oh, fuck that noise. Ain't no way I'm going to allow some robotic android synth bastard to go looking for my son.


Jessi Burke: What are you talking about?


Markus Reeves: There is a person in Fallout 4 named Nick Valentine that is a synth and a detective.


Jessi Burke: So you are pretty much freaking out because my PI shares a name with a video game character?


Markus Reeves: Well when you say it that way it sounds completely crazy.


Jessi Burke: Oh trust me, it doesn't just sound completely crazy, it is completely crazy.


Markus Reeves: Okay, I'll calm down but don't think that I wont be making sure he isn't some body snatching robot.


Jessi Burke: You are completely hopeless.


Markus Reeves: Not completely, I did make up posters to help find my son.


Jessi Burke: I don't even know if I want to see these.


Markus hands Jessi one of the fliers.


Jessi Burke: This is a picture of some random black baby with your hair and beard on him.


Markus Reeves: It's the best I could come up with on short notice.


Jessi Burke: Despite the fact that your kid, has got to be close to thirty years old.


Markus Reeves: All I said was that I made a poster. I didn't' say it would be super helpful or good for that matter.


Jessi Burke: Just focus on wrestling at this point. I'll take care of the tracking your kid down since you aren't much for following clues.


Markus Reeves: Yeah I sort of noticed.


Jessi Burke: I'll be in touch.



Jessi gets up and leaves the office as the scene fades to the end credits and then to black.

The scene opens up in a busy airport, people are going every which way and a man walks in front of the camera and holds up a microphone.



Chad Light: Hello everybody, this is Chad Light coming to you from Osaka International Airport and I am here waiting for the arrival of the newest addition to the Sin City Wrestling Roster, one Markus Reeves. Over the next however long it lasts I will be cronicalling Markus’ return to professional wrestling after a three year lawoff. He would be getting off the airplane any time now.



Chad turns around and looks towards the arrivals and doesn’t see the hulking behemoth that is Markus Reeves. Chad looks back towards the camera and shrugs his shoulders. A hand from the camera guy appears on camera pointing back towards the arrival gate. Chad turns around again and sees Markus carrying a his bags away from the arrival area. Chad and the camera guy start to head towards Markus. Chad waves at Markus and Markus waves back.



Chad Light: I’m standing here now with Markus Reeves who has finally made his trek all the way from Phoenix to appear on his first show this weekend. Tell me Markus, why have you decided at this point in your career to not stay retired and instead return to the wrestling ring?


Markus Reeves: Well honestly it’s a couple of different reasons, the first one is simply that I was bored away from the wrestling ring. There isn’t really a lot someone my size and my age can do that can be used as more than a distraction at best. Wrestling has pretty much been the only thing I’ve been doing over the last fifteen years. The other reason is right now I have see my daughter wrestling in another promotion in the United States and watching her wrestle really started to make me miss it. The main reason I am returning is I wasn’t happy with my last run in a wrestling company. I basically spent months trying to build myself up in the company only to get killed at pay per view by a dude who was holding the companies word title and secondary title at the same time. After that I left and went into basically retirement.

Chad Light: Great answer champ, what do you think you can bring to SCW?



Markus Reeves: Well I’m going to come in and give them everything that I have which for all I know might not be much at this point but they are still going to get someone who believes that he is in fact still be very competetive inside the squared circle and even though I’m going to most likely be wrestling people that are young enough to be my children, I still think I can go out and win championships.



Chad Light: Just a few more questions. What was it that brought you to SCW in the first place.



Markus Reeves: Well, I got a couple of friends inside the company in Roxi Johnson and Crystal Millar or whatever the Hell she is calling herself these days and some others from places I’ve wrestled before but honestly I feel that SCW is place where I can thrive and win titles to add to my already extensive title collection. Just from talking with the owner before I signed my contract I felt that SCW would be a great fit for myself, hopefully for years to come.



Chad Light: Last question Mark, Why did you approach me about doing this documentary?



Markus Reeves: I wanted to give the great wrestling fans all around the world an inside view of what I am outside of the ring. People have seen me wrestle in all corners of the globe but none of them have seen what it’s like to be around me on a day to day basis. Plus I’ve seen the popularity of shows like Hard Knocks on HBO where they show you the behind the scenes stuff involving a National Football League team every year and I felt that I could pull of the same thing with wrestling since there is a lot of stuff that goes on backstage that people don’t know about.



Chad Light: Might not want to go into that too far Markus, don’t want to ruin anything for the fans.





Markus Reeves: Chill out Chad, I wasn’t going to spoil anything. Man what time is it?



Chad Light: It’s almost seven in the morning.



Markus Reeves: Man, I need to get out of here and get some sleep, this time change is going to kill me.



Chad Light: Alright, let me wrap this up.



Chad then turns and faces the camera with Markus off camera



Chad Light: Sin City Wrestling fans, I hope you are ready and excited for what Markus Reeves plans to bring to this company and I hope you enjoyed meeting the man who plans to turn SCW on it’s head. I’m Chad Light and this was Markus Reeves live from Osaka Japan. We’ll see you next time on the Markus Reeves Experience.



The scene fades to black. Next words appear on the screen.



“I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears...in...rain. Time to die.”



-Roy Batty from Blade Runner



The scene then opens up with Markus Reeves in a non-descript location. He is alone and pacing in front of the camera with a concrete wall behind him.



Markus Reeves: Well that’s pretty much all true except the time to die part, I don’t plan on doing that for a long while but however that statement from Blade Runner rings true with me. I have indeed seen some things in my fifteen year career. I’ve seen great things and terrible things and everything in between. First of all allow me to introduce myself, I am Markus Evan Reeves and I’ve been doing this for a very long time and I have indeed seen things that you people wouldn’t believe. I’ve wrestled all over the world and in all sorts of matches and that makes me very, very dangerous for everyone that I may end up facing here in SCW.



Why does this make me dangerous you may ask and really that question is simple to answer. I’ve seen it all man, there is nothing left in this business that will surprise me. I’ve been involved in matches with midgets, flaming pies and scaffolding matches. I’ve wrestled in rings filled with glass and in a sadistic structure that is like cage but also made of glass. I’ve been electrocuted, set on fire and buried alive and yet here I am, still ready to kick whoever’s ass gets in my way.



Now some of you might remember that I said that I’m old and that’s the honest truth, Hell I’ll be fifty years old later this year but that doesn’t really matter because I’m still better than half of the tools that are in this business and that’s because I have the one thing that none of them have and that’s the fact that I’m absolutely crazy. I’m willing to do whatever it takes to win a wrestling match. If that means me launching myself off the top turnbuckle and putting someone through a table, I’m willing to do it and that should absolutely terrify all of you. Nothing like going to the outside of the ring to catch your breath and then all of a sudden a three hundred plus pound dude who should be in a nursing home at this point eating putting and shitting himself comes flying out of nowhere and crashes though you.



Yeah, you know what, I like the sound of that. Nothing quite like have a grandpa like person come flying at you like a cruise missile to really make you feel alive. So Constantine what are you willing to do to beat me in this match because I know what I’m ready to do. I’m ready to go out like it’s the last match I ever wrestle and I plan on doing something absolutely loco to beat you and that even includes me tearing my arm off and beating you to death with you. Yeah I’m that crazy!



Now the one thing that worries me is the fact that I know very little about you. Usually I know someone that has video on pretty much every wrestler in the world so I can go and watch and scout and learn some things that can help tip the match in my favor but in the case of you I don’t have that in this case and I don’t know if that’s because you are totally brand new to wrestling or if Greece being in such an economic shit hole forced you to burn all of your video tapes of you wrestling just so you can stay warm during the winter but I know for a fact that I am going into this match blind but you know what? That’s just fine with me, you see there is such a thing as too much preparation a paralysis by analysis and that could cause me to lose to someone like you, who I have no business losing to and do you know why that is Constantine? It’s really quite simple and I know that English isn’t your first language so I’m going to spell it out nice and clear and slowly for you. It’s because I have experience. I’ve been in this game a long damn time and there is no way I’m going to let some hairy chested “Grease” reject beat me in my return match to wrestling. No way am I going to let that happen. Usually this is the part where I tell my opponent to just stay home so they don’t embarrass themselves in front of their friends and family but this time I don’t care. I want you to show up and give me everything you got so that when I win and trust me I will win I can feel great knowing that I still got it. So I can go to my friends who think I’m stupid for returning to the ring after three years away from it and show them that I can still hang with…in this case I won’t say big dogs because you aren’t on my level but you are some sort of little lap dog but none these I will show them that I can at least destroy mentally and physically something like a Chihuahua



Now Constantine, don’t worry about letting me get a feel back since I’ve been away for so long, I won’t be knocking ring rust off because I don’t get that. I’ll just go out and do what I do best and that is physically, emotionally and psychologically annihilate people and I hope you know just what kind of craziness you are getting into. Constantine, this is a moment that both of us will remember for a long, long time. I’ll remember it as the moment where I returned to wrestling and restarted my journey to the top and you will remember it as the time that you got your ass stomped in by the one and only, the Legendary, the infamous, Markus F’n Reeves. I’m putting the rest of the roster on notice, no matter how big or how small you might be, if you have the misfortune of stepping into the ring with me, remember the beating that I will give you is nothing personal because quite frankly, I hate everyone equally. Constantine, I hope you are ready for war because if you aren’t you will be a casualty before you even know what hits you. See you in Kobe, bitch!



The scene fades out again and then fades into Markus Reeves sitting in a doctor’s office wearing a hospital gown. The doctor walks in and looks at Markus with a puzzled look on his face.



Doctor: Why are you wearing that gown?



Markus Reeves: Aren’t patience supposed to wear this?



Doctor: Yes if you were maybe here to have surgery but you are here for a physical for you SCW contract. More importantly where did you get that damn thing, its giant.


Markus Reeves: I brought it for myself because I knew this place wasn’t going to have one big enough for me.



Doctor: I see. Well I have your results back and I know that we did go into a little deeper of an exam because you are so old and you are getting back into a very dangerous profession.



Markus Reeves: How bad is it doc?


Doctor: I mean it could be a whole lot worse, but could also be a whole lot better. You are somehow great when it comes to your heart and cholesterol and things of that nature so that’s the good news.



Markus Reeves: How bad is the bad news?



Doctor: Basically your whole body is shot, if it were a car you would just tow it away to the scrap yard and crush it into a little cube.



Markus Reeves: That good eh?



Doctor: You barely have any cartilage left in either knee and both of your shoulders need to have surgery also. I have a feeling that you will end up with dementia sooner rather than later due to repeated head trauma.



Markus Reeves: Yeah but I already knew that was going to happen. Are you going to clear me to wrestle?



Doctor: I really shouldn’t but besides your knees and shoulders your body isn’t too bad. Surprisingly your neck and spine are holding up well for your age and with your already long career in wrestling. Now you know that you aren’t going to be able to do this forever.



Markus Reeves: I know, the body will eventually forsake me and then it’s off to the old folk’s home where I’ll let my competitive juices flow in bingo and betting on which old person I can throw the first.



Doctor: You are really the worst, you know that right?


Markus Reeves: Yes but through all of the crap I’ve gone though and all the time I’ve been in here to get fixed up I’ve basically put your kids through college, even the one that changed her major five times and is now studying feminist art history or something like that.



Doctor: Don’t remind me of the last part.



Markus Reeves: Noted.



Doctor: There is one thing else that came to my attention when we were doing your blood work.



Markus Reeves: What is that?



Doctor: Your blood matches someone else’s blood.


Markus Reeves: Well it should be, I’m type O. I’m universal baby.


Doctor: No, I mean it matches someone to the point that they are probably a blood relative of  yours but the only way to be sure is to do a paternity test but we can’t do that until we track this individual down and see if they want to go ahead with the testing.



Markus Reeves: Well keep me informed doc.



Doctor: You know I have a name right?



Markus Reeves: I do but I also know me just calling you doc pisses you off. I’ll talk to you later when I decide to become the bionic man and have my entire body replaced with robot parts.



Doctor: You are completely hopeless.



Markus Reeves: Thanks.



Markus hops up and leave the room as the scene fades to black
