Fade in on Cage sitting in his gym,the lights are low the only real illumination coming from a television which judging by the audio seems to be replaying the previous weeks Climax Control.
Cage lights up a Camel and stretches his neck rolling it as it audibly pops ad then cracks his knuckles before looking up to address the camera.
Cage:I would like..if I can to clarify something for my opponent this week... you see Weapon-X...
Cage shakes his head and snickers.
Cage:I..I'm sorry see I kept trying to figure out the name...I mean Weapon-X...it sounds like something out of the old Buck Rogers shows me an' my father would watch.Or something Goldfinger would try to kill James Bond with...but according to my wife Weapon-X is just another name for Wolverine...
He shrugs and takes a drag on his ciggerette.
Cage:Hey..I feel ya. I loved the X-men movies Wolverine is a bad ass guy...but still man I find it hard to take you seriously with a goofy name like that. I mean shit I liked Batman too but I didn't decide to stick some pointy eared mask on my head and run around in a cape calling myself dark night or some shit. You're being ridiculous...I'll tell you what I do take seriously though,what I want to clarify for you...
He raises his hand as if to signal for something to stop.
Cage: You can edit it in here right?
Evan (from behind the camera):Yeah thats easy enough to do.
The feed changes,instead of Cage in the darkened room we are seeing a clip from Weapon-X's segment.
Weapon-X:I want to make this clear he has a RIGHT to be bitter. What he DOES NOT have a right to be is to think he no longer has to follow the rules of what a upstanding citizen is supposed to be. You are showing all of these teenagers & younger that if you are wronged the best course of action is to say "f*ck it" & stop caring instead of showing the world how strong of a person you are by sticking to the morals you once had even after this misjustice was done to you. You had a choice Bobby & you picked the wrong choice which is part of the reason out of EVERY single SCW superstar I chose YOU to be my official debut match here. You need to be put in your place for what you've become.
The scene cuts back to Cage.
Cage:I am not a role model, I've never claimed to be. I don't WANT to be one. I have never asked for anyone to follow in my footsteps and I've never said my way is the right way. You think I'm some kind of deranged monster leading the youth of this nation off onto a path of violence and anarchy? Far from it. I'm simply doing what is best for me and my family. Look at my daughter? Is she out busting heads and slinging Yayo on the street like alot of kids her age? No. She's living in a good apartment,she's going to school,she's dating a...I can't believe I'm saying this because I hate the little snot...a good guy. She's a good girl and I helped her turn into that person. I have never claimed to have made the right choices,I've simply done what I needed to do to survive.
He sighs and shakes his head.
Cage:I won't let you get under my skin,you can laugh me off because I'm a brawler and you can mock me for always 'choking' in the big time matches but since you're such an upright and pious christian...
He snorts back a chuckle and stubs out his ciggerette.
Cage:Well friend I would just like to remind you that there is only one being who has the right to sit in judgment of any man and though you might claim to do his work you certainly aren't him. So come down from your high horse and take off your little mask,drop the fake ass name and come at me like a man...or I promise you that come this sunday you'll be made a martyr.
Oh yeah and one more thing oh Masked Avenger...I've tangled with the Yakuza before. I've been on their god sides and their bad,I've seen them mobilize to help tsunami victims with food and clothes before even the fastest acting of charities had lifted a finger and I've seen members beat aman half to death because he shorted them by a whole five yen on a money exchange.Being involved with the Yakuza doesn't impress or intimidate me..So you're an ex bodyguard who turned snitch and brought down a big family...
Cage makes a fake yawning motion.
Cage:I personally exterminated the Fanturo crime family. From the Don all the way down to my former best friend Nicky. You went running to the popo's and I did all the work myself with these very hands. So you can claim to be the better man between the two of us and you can promise that justice shall be served or whatever the hell it was you said,but at the end of the day the only justice you know is how to pick up a phone. Maybe...just maybe I'll be a little impressed and show you some respect when you get your hands dirty. All wrestling aside all you've shown me is that you're a scared punk who couldn't handle living in the real world. You're ignoring the grey and living in a world of black and white absolutes...and this sunday I'll show you just how blind thats made you. In all your years,both in the buisness and just on this planet period you ain't never met a motherfucker quite like me. So being your wrestling skills,bring your holier then though attitude and your two little asian sex slaves or whatever the hell they are,bring all the help you can get. Because when you step into the ring with this poor old brawler...well I promise you son..you're going to need it.
Cage makes the sign of the cross and then flips both middle fingers at the camera as the scene fades to black...
