It was promotion week for Sin City Wrestling show Violent Conduct IX. For most people it was straight up show the fans what you were doing that week, throw in a little bit of fan interaction to sell the show on people there or get them excited for it, but the life of a champion was often unseen by the majority of fans. For a World Champion, there was a lot that was done in between the camera scenes and the bought of creative genius from everyone involved from the wrestler themselves, to the consultants, to the camera crew and the editors that clean everything up the best they could. Champions had to go where they were told, in to certain wrestling markets and hype up the show, but not many gave you a glimpse in that, because a lot of the same questions were asked and answered, but J2H was different. He wanted to show the fans what champions should do. He showed up on every single show while being the champion, which is more then most did. He didn't even remember off hand who most champions were because of their lack of appearance but he wanted the fans to know who he was and the work he put in behind the scenes, so he invited a camera crew along with him to see what he did when the cameras wasn't on.... in four cities on three continents in just four days. He knew that he had to be adaptable, he knew some people he'd be talking to would want James the person, some would want J2H the character and he was ready to be both.
He'd said goodbye to his family on Sunday and headed right to a private just for destination one....

Monday 21st August 2023,
London, England,
TalkSPORT radio.
It was 10am in London and people were used to listening to TalkSPORT to hear Simon Jordan and Jim White's usual show, but today was different and advertised early for a special guest host of Melissa Reddy to host a special segment of their show featuring none other then SCW World Heavyweight champion, J2H. The cameras showed J2H sitting opposite of Melissa in the London based studio.
Melissa: Welcome back to TalkSPORT, I'm Melissa Reddy and we have a special treat for you today. We're breaking away from the football talk for just half an hour to speak to Sin City Wrestling superstar and current World Heavyweight champion, a man you know well, J2H. Welcome back to London, how are you this morning?
He was feeling a little tired from a long flight, but he couldn't let on.
J2H: I'm doing good. Thank for having me over here again. I love London.
He did have a soft spot for London, but he didn't overly like it, but diplomacy was expected for this kind of interview.
Melissa: That's great to hear. Now you're on a whistle stop tour of the world to promote Sin City Wrestling's supercard, this coming Sunday, live on the SCW network, called Violent Conduct IX. You're headlining, is that correct?
J2H: That is very correct, I am headlining in something called a barbed wired cage match, which is essentially a cage covered in barbed wire, against a former champion called Michael Harris.
Melissa: That sounds dangerous, but I admit to being a wrestling fan and I did see your last match against Michael Harris, where you won the championship and I know you guys can see the championship on our webcam set up but it is beautiful up close.
He looked at the title over his shoulder with pride.
J2H: Just looking at it makes it worth it. Going through all the trouble of coming back is worth it when you look at it.
Melissa: And it was a lot of trouble and effort to get it back, you had to win a tournament just to get a chance to win it.
J2H: I did, it was called Blast From The Past and I'd never won it before, but I sat talking to my wife about it for the sake of our son, who had never seen me wrestle for more then a match or two. He's only a little one, but now he's aware of everything, and he loves wrestling, he loves seeing me in a ring.
Melissa: And that's why you returned after a long time off?
J2H: It was. He watched the older stuff and loved it, he gets it well and this was me showing him live what it's all about, so I thought a good run in the tournament would get him seeing enough of me that I could do that, and move on, but I ended up with a good partner, I won and went on to face and beat Michael Harris.
Melissa: Does your son go to every show.
As much as he knew his son would love to be at every show, J2H shook his head.
J2H: No, He would love to go to every single show, but with the tours and school, I couldn't bring him along for the ride every time but he will be there on Sunday.
Melissa: Does your wife ever worry about your well being in the ring?
He knew Melody did, but she rarely mentioned it to him.
J2H: I think she knows I'm good at what I do. I'm sure she worries but I think she trusts me more then anything else. She knows that when I'm in that ring, I will come out in one piece.
Melissa: So you've never had any injuries in the ring?
J2H: Early in my career there was a couple of small injuries, but I knew how to take care of myself. I wasn't rushing back in to things then, took an extra time off to heal right. I was young and could have been stupid but I looked at guys in the same company as me held together by tape and I knew I didn't need to be that. The only time I ever rushed back was after something that happened outside of the ring, because I was facing the guy I'm facing on Sunday, so I rushed back a little quicker then I should a couple of months ago.
Melissa: Well let's talk about Sunday, shall we? This is one of Sin City wrestling's biggest cards of the year and it seems to be lined up with huge matches.
J2H: SCW always does this for supercards, everything is always stacked from top to bottom. Lots of championship matches, lots of rivalries coming to a head, a lot of stories finishing and I think a lot starting. I won't lie and say I'm friends with anyone backstage in SCW because I'm really not, but I know how people think with these type of shows, even if they don't show up through all the build up, or even at all until this show because they mostly want something for nothing, they do have this mentality of giving it everything for these big shows, so it should be good.
He had to blur the lines there, even though this was more of an out of character interview, most people thought his hatred towards people being lazy on SCW shows was more of a character thing, it was a very personal opinion but he was happy to let people think otherwise.
Melissa: And it all ends with your match, how do you think that's going to go?
He knew he couldn't blurt some things out, so he once again blurred the lines between fiction and reality.
J2H: I'm gonna win of course. I'm gonna beat this guy again, Melissa. I was the one who told him to drag himself back to SCW, I was the one who told him to get screwed up in the head and bring something back with him from the hell I sent him to, so I expect it is going to be brutal one way or the other. I know we're both gonna bleed all over the place, I know we're both gonna give it everything we got, I know we're going to try and hurt each other in there and we both will. The next morning won't be fun for either of us, we're both gonna be physically ruined, but I'll be waking up smiling because I will have the SCW World Heavyweight championship with me.
Melissa: You sound very confident.
J2H: I am very confident. I've been in the ring with this guy before, I know what to expect. I got nothing in this world to worry about when it comes facing this guy again, nothing at all, so I'm ready for Sunday.
Melissa: It's Sunday, it's live on the SCW network online, from around midnight here, correct?
J2H: It is and it will be worth every hour of missed sleep. Call your bosses now, tell them you have Monday off because of me because Violent Conduct is going to be the best thing you'll see in a long time. That's real talk.
He smirked at his modified catchphrase, knowing that it was too early to be turning the London airwaves blue.
Melissa: Well thank you for joining us J2H, we'll be back after a quick ad break and Jordan and White will be back with their show. Good luck on Sunday.
J2H: Thank you.
He would have loved to have stayed and chatted but he had two more appearances in London and then off to the next city.

Tuesday 22nd August 2023,
Berlin, Germany,
Podcast with Stefan Raab.
A black background covered the screen and white words appeared.
"Right here, I was going to show you a podcast being filmed in Germany, but the truth is, it was utter shit. Stefan Raab is actually a very boring mother fucker, who looked so familiar but I couldn't place it. Whoever it was that he looked like must have annoyed me in the past cause the urge to punch this guy in the face was there - In case you're curious, I might have punched the guy in the face. His questions were boring and I could barely understand his piss poor attempt at English, so I decided I wasn't gonna risk my promo stuff going long because this strange little man that German's tend to like even though he once told a sixteen year old girl she'll be in porn because of her name*
*I only found this out while reading his wiki in post production of this promo while deciding what to put here. I'm glad I punched him now! So sue me, ya pervert!
Anyway, enough of that loser, this is what I did on Wednesday."
*******
Wednesday 23rd August 2023,
Ottawa, Canada,
CTV Morning Live.
It was another day, another continent for the SCW World Heavyweight champion as he sat below the studio light in the CTV Morning Live studio in Ottawa next to host Rosey Edeh as we wait to come back from commercial. He knew this one was a light hearted interview with the former Olympian and knew he had to pick his answers wisely and very diplomatically. He waited patiently for the show to return from commercial, just looking at the SCW World Heavyweight championship over his shoulder and for Rosey to do her introduction.
Rosey: And welcome back to CTV Morning Live, I'm Rosey Edeh, and I'm joined by a man you know from Sin City Wrestling, World Heavyweight champion, James Huntington Hawkes the third, better known to you on screen as J2H. Welcome to the show James.
He smiled through gritted teeth, unsure how he felt about his real name being used but this was a morning show, a relaxed interview with someone who knew her sport and her advocacy for women in sport. Again, he knew quickly words had to be chosen wisely.
J2H: Thank you, glad to be here.
Rosey: You've been a busy guy lately promoting the SCW show coming up this Sunday, you just flew in from Germany, correct?
J2H: I did, I got here a couple of hours ago, and was in your place of birth the day before so yeah, been travelling around a lot.
Rosey: Seems like we have a guest who has done some research on me.
J2H: It's a long flight from Germany.
He smiled at her, trying to make her feel at ease as best he could.
Rosey: I'm sure you've been asked a lot about Violent Conduct IX, over the past two days, so let's have a change of pace this morning, let's talk about you with a wrestling theme. You've been wresting from a young age, but it allowed you to meet your wife through the sport, a wrestler herself, how does she feel about what you do now?
He was a little taken back by the question, like most before an interview, he had run a million questions and answers over in his head but this was not one of them.
J2H: Looks like I'm not the only one who has done my research. She's ok with it, she watches everything I do and at times points at things I could have done better. I think because she was a wrestler, she understands a lot better then partners not with a wrestling background who worry about their partners getting hurt. I'm not sure she'll like the upcoming match but she's pretty relaxed about things.
Rosey: And you have a young son too that also seems to enjoy it.
Another taken back moment, that J2H had seconds to think about before answer her comment.
J2H: He's a big fan of pretty much every wrestler he meets and sees. He loves being backstage at the shows he's at and most of the roster have time to sit around with him and talk wrestling.
Rosey: Is it something you can see him doing in years to come?
J2H: I think it would be very tough to stop him, he's already practicing dropkicks and basic moves in the pool, so I think it would be hard to keep him away from it.
He hoped that the questioning would not go any further concerning his son and wrestling. He knew his son was a fan and saw much more at shows then other people who end up in wrestling, ever get to see, but he wasn't sure he wanted him to go in to wrestling.
Rosey: Now there's been a whisper that you're a very different guy on a wrestling show, then you are in real life. What is the difference between James and J2H?
He lowered his eyebrows and frowned slightly. He'd never really been asked these kind of questions before.
J2H: I don't think there's too much difference, I just don't need to have my guard up around my family. People think I have the big ego when it comes to wrestling and I do. I know what I've done in wrestling and yeah, I should have an ego, every wrestler should have an ego or it's not worth getting in the ring, but I have that ego outside of wrestling too. I have to remind everyone in wrestling who I am, but I don't need to walk in to a coffee house and remind the barista that I'm J2H. Same guy in the ring as well as outside the ring, I don't tolerate laziness or stupidity, so I guess the only difference is when I'm around my family.
Rosey: I used to be the same when I was training and missed family time.
J2H: Then you get it. I travel the world, so when I come home, I become dad rather then J2H, because James is J2H without a microphone and some guy in front of him to trash talk.
Rosey smiled at J2H, giving him time to catch his breath.
Rosey: So I have seen SCW for a long time, and they've always stood out to me for equality for men and women wrestlers, with women breaking barriers.
He could see her nod at him as if to comment without a question, feeling compelled to continue from her words. He smiled inside as he felt this could be a perfect chance to show his intelligence and ability to have a deeper conversation.
J2H: SCW really is a great place to be in that sense. SCW got criticized for having separated divisions and it still does, but for me, it's a chance to build two great things rather then one. The women in SCW are treated great, they've headlined big shows. What SCW has done had made men and women equal in their own rights, which is more then what most can say out there. Inter gender matches come across as lazy, it throws everyone in the same pool and this is why SCW is special, it gave everyone a chance to shine. Plus it's not my thing to see men beat up women.
Rosey: So if you was offered a big contract in a place that did matches like that, you wouldn't take it?
He knew this was a loaded question that was designed to place him on the spot but he was ready for it.
J2H: I wouldn't consider taking it for a second. I've been offered big deals by big places and I've turned them down for that reason. I think women should have the chance to shine without a guy with my credentials going in and stopping them. I'm proud of my career for what I've done. I'm not say these women are not tough and talented, cause there's a lot that are and could stand up to the guys, but my morals would make me turn down deals like that.
He knew that could be taken wrong and there would be some dick on the internet claiming he was sexist or something, but he would never be interesting in fighting a women.
Rosey: So we're almost out of time here James, but it's been wonderful having you here and learning about the man behind J2H, I wish you and your family well. Before you go, please tell our viewers about the show.
J2H: So the show is on Sunday, it's called Violent Conduct IX, and you can see it on the SCW network, grab the app on any device you have and you can see it there from about seven PM local time. I will be defending this championship in the main event against a guy called Michael Harris, who is a very decorated wrestler. It's a stacked show with lots of belts on the line, so don't miss it!
He smiled the warmest smile he could down the camera.
Rosey: Thank you for joining us James, we'll be back after this.
The show cut to commercial and small talk was had between the two. He drifted out of conversation, his mind was already on his next flight... Four hours to Cancun, to spend the afternoon, evening and night with his family before his last stop on the promotional tour.
*******
Thursday 24th August 2023,
Mexico City, Mexico,
Salón de Cabildos.
He left his family in the morning to get to his final tour stop. It was early afternoon in Mexico City as J2H entered the last of his media duties for the week, a press conference in City Hall. It had been a long week and the travel had been harsh but he'd finally made it to his last destination before travelling back to his family he had a few hours with yesterday in Cancun. Tiredness made him cranky and his body ached from hours stuck on planes, but he knew how to use it to his advantage. He was in Mexico City, the home of South America's most die hard wrestling fans and he knew that everyone in that building hadn't come to speak to James, they wanted to ask questions to the great J2H. Mexican wrestling fans loved a character when it came to wrestling and J2H was going to give them just that as he walked in to the room, his championship thrown over his shoulder. Instantly cameras flashed in his face but his sunglasses took away most of the damage the could do and he made his way to the chair with his name plate in front of it pointing to the crowd. A Mexican man sat next to him.
Mexican man: Hola, my name is Miguel and I am here to interpret to Senor J2H should it be needed and to moderate this press conference. Please raise your hand and I will select you to ask your question. Please understand that his time is very limited, so please no follow up questions. Welcome J2H.
The was an odd applause from the media personalities, which was unusual at a press conference but J2H shrugged it off.
J2H: Yeah thanks Miguel. I mean you would have thought they would have gone Senor Vinnie to do this shit, but Pete the Cactus has more personality. Let's get on with this.
He was in full J2H mode as Miguel pointed to someone in the crowd and listened to the question in English.
Journalist: Hola Amigo, on Sunday you face Michael Harris in a barbed wire cage match, have you ever been in one before.
J2H rolled his eyes at the man asking the question.
J2H: I hate shit journalists that don't bother fucking researching anyone before showing up, taking up space and oxygen and ask stupid questions. Google could answer that one for you. Waste of a fucking question. I have never been in a match like that, no one has been in that kind of specific match in SCW, people have done some crazy shit in SCW but this one is new, this one is one of a kind until some genius waters down the concept by sticking it on the Roulette wheel.
Hands appear in the air and another is selected.
Journalist: As it is your first, do you have any nerves?
J2H: I don't feel nerves, I never have felt nerves and this thing is a walk in the fucking park. I don't have any worries about this. It's not like I haven't bled in a ring before and it's not like I haven't done it when people have used everything against me to try and beat me but fail. I'm not nervous, I'm not scared, I'm just ready to kick the shit out of that old son of a bitch and prove to him that I will always be better then him.
Another question is quickly selected.
Journalist: When you entered Blast From The Past, did you expect to be sitting here months later with the championship?
He knew he alluded to just being in the tournament in the past and in other interviews, but this was about being J2H.
J2H: Not only did I know I was gonna be sitting here, I knew I was gonna get a good partner, win, destroy Michael Harris, and do it all over again. I can read people pretty fucking well, in fact here's one for you. Jack Washington is gonna with King for a Day and book himself against a champion, probably me, you heard that here first too.
Miguel pointed to another raised hand.
Journalist: Should you lose on Sunday, will you be leaving SCW?
J2H: First off there amigo, I won't be losing. This fucking belt is staying with me because I said it will be staying with me. Michael Harris don't deserve this belt, he never did in the first place but let's play your game and answer the question. If I lose, then no, I won't be crawling under a rock, or going to hide because you seem to forget what season it is after Violent Conduct.... It's J2H season bitch and I got a right to wrong from last year, so no, I won't be a pissy little bitch hiding away.
More hands raised and another pointed at.
Journalist: Senor J2H, do you think this match will be harder to win then your past match with Senor Harris?
J2H: No, I will still beat him, the only difference is, is that sick bitch can try and stab me with more then a pen in this match. It means he can sit there and slice my skin like ham, but it doesn't change the fact that I'm gonna win. He's got a lot to prove and his head has been fucked with but I think that's why I'm gonna be better then him. Mentally, he's lost the match, he's not obsessed with winning no matter how many times he says that shit, he's obsessed with hurting me and by the time he finishes running around like a bull in a china shop, he'll be too fucking tired to keep up. Might be there first time you see an old man take a nap mid match.
J2H smirked as another question was asked.
Journalist: Do you feel you will steal the show on Sunday?
J2H: What kind of stupid question is that? Like seriously, did you just go and round up every idiot with a pen that you could kind Miguel and set this shit up? Steal the fucking show, name one other match on the card that can steal the show, name one other wrestling in the entire world who can do what I can do? There is fucking no one out there that can do that, not a single person. All I need to do is walk down that fucking ramp and the show has been stolen. Fuck it, I've stolen the show and all I've done is sit here and talk to you taco loving dicks. This alone is something for you to tell your grand kids and donkeys about, let alone what I'm gonna do on Sunday.
He could feel himself getting annoyed at the stupid questions but he let it continue.
Journalist: When you started your career many years ago, did you aim to be the man you are today?
J2H: About time an ok question. I was brought up with money around people who did whatever it took to get to the top of whatever they decided to go in to and they did. I know the top people in every walk of life so why wouldn't I want to be at the top of what I do? When I started wrestling, I saw myself as being the man someone built a company on and I was treated like trash by so many people when I walked in the door. It made me better so all those little bitches helped make me who I am today, but fuck giving them credit for it cause I made them look good. I wanted to be known as the man who built worlds and fuck it, I am that guy, but I'm not putting down my tools just yet because there's still more to do to have my name the first one thought of when people think of SCW in twenty years time.
He looked around the room but more hands appeared.
Journalist: Do you think Michael Harris respects you?
J2H: I don't give a shit if he does, or if he doesn't. I don't care about that because I know after Sunday, he's going to respect me. At this point in time, he could have a voodoo doll sticking pins in me. He could be playing with his emo friends trying to cast spells on me. At this moment in time, his feelings towards me mean shit. After Sunday, he won't need to publicly say a word, I will know he will respect me.
Another question was quickly asked.
Journalist: Do you respect him?
J2H: Right now I just wanna kick the shit out of him. I don't feel anything towards him, I just want Sunday to come, get in the ring with him and bury Michael Harris once and for all and not have to see him slowly move around the ring again cause I know once I do that, he'll be done for good. There will not be a moment I look over my shoulder, I will celebrate every day that I was the one that got rid of him, now, anymore stupid questions or can I go?
He didn't wait for a reply to come, he simply stood up.
J2H: No? Good!
His championship was over a shoulder and he was on his way out of the door before anything else could be said. His patience and tiredness had overtaken him and it was time to head back to his family. Just around three short hours later, he was with them and happier then he had been all week.
*******
He had finally made it back to Melody and James Jr, but he had one more thing to take care of. He'd been selling the match around the countries for days but now it was time to do the final thing on his list, talk directly at Michael Harris. It had felt like forever since that pen pierced the champions head and the anger had been building in him more the closer the time came to this moment. Days away meant he had no urge to be away from his family and decided to take them to the beach with one solitary cameraman to capture the moment. He laid on a towel and looked in the distance as Melody and James Jr splashed in the warm water, Simpson close by the two just in case of any issues. He snapped his finger to get the cameraman to turn to him, his body just covered in long white shorts, past his knees and a bucket cap.
J2H: Cameraman, get the shot on my face if you don't mind.
Cameraman: Are you sure this is a good idea? This is a public beach and you have a lot of gold there.
The cameraman moved the camera to a shot of a bag and J2H opened up the bag, pulling out the SCW World Heavyweight Championship.
J2H: I don't give a shit, are you rolling?
Cameraman: Yeah.
He pulled the championship across the top half of his body, putting his arm over it.
J2H: So it's finally come down to this, the talk is nearly over, the running away from me, only to hit a sneak attack when it suited you instead of just putting your name on a contract like a man. The chances you had to look me in the eye and just tell me I was better then you... It's all gone now Michael and we're down to the home straight, the final dash to the finish line. Inside a hell of mesh and barbed wire we step and there's no escape. It's time to pay for the months of dodging me, it's time to pay for the months of silence and not facing me like a man, it's time to pay for the scars on my forehead. I hope you have the credit for this, because this guy right here, is coming to collect.
His tone was calm and deliberate as he spoke with serious eyes.
J2H: The reinvention was something unexpected but do I look like a man who gets thrown off his game by a serious look? Do I look like a man who would sit there and let it play on my mind that the big scary, psychopath is going to get me anytime he wants? Nah, that's shit and you know I'm not gonna flinch at that, but great work creating that cold atmosphere like many have done before you.
He could hear people say his name from around him but he kept his cool stance.
J2H: I had a lot of flights Michael, I've been all over the place just trying to get everyone's eyes on us, to do my job that so many champions don't and sell the shit out of this division, out of this company, I did that and on those flights, you know what I did? I watched your matches from SCW, every single one of them, I watched everything you did and then I watched what you did last week and I admit, it felt different. It felt like this was not the Michael Harris I went to war with and it got me thinking Michael. I didn't just take your championship, did I? I took a whole lot more then that, and your pride, I took a little bit of your soul along with everything else I took. Deep down I knew that I did, and I took everything from ya, and I might have said it before but everything about you last week confirmed that I broke you more then I first thought I did.
Part of him felt a little proud for his actions.
J2H: I didn't just ruin your career, I ruined your life and I'm not sad about that at all Michael. Inside me, there's a sub conscious me doing a little happy dance, but this me, I'm not satisfied with that. To me, I toppled the king but I didn't kill him, now it's time to finish the job.
His words hit the sea breeze with the confidence of ten men facing one.
J2H: I get why I didn't, because for months leading up to when I had my shot at the king, I looked like a bitch, I looked like second best in the whole thing, I looked like a shell of who I am. I got hit with a car and away while the cameras was on you, I was the one looking weak for not being able to be there, and maybe, just maybe that took away my killer instinct, maybe that made me less of who I am and maybe that's why I didn't kill the king when I should have, but that's not the case this time. This time, you've been brooding, you've been hiding away somewhere and I have the power, so it's my turn to finish you off. It's my turn to do what I should have done months ago. I beat you when I was hurting, I beat you when I was doubting myself and doubting why I put myself in your path, why the fuck I bothered even coming back for Blast From The Past when I knew no matter who the partner would be, I would win it. I doubted myself every day from that car hitting me till the time the referee's hand hit that canvas for the third time. Even with all that self doubt, that self loathing, I came through it and proved too much. Do you see the difference this time around?
He looked to the side to see people looking at him but turned back to the camera.
J2H: This time you have the doubts, you have the self loathing, you have all of that and me? I'm back to my best. You had me hit with a car cause you thought you could beat a crippled J2H and you remember what happened? You fucking couldn't and here I am all healed up and shit with the confidence I have and you? You don't have my recovery skills, you can not physically and mentally overcome what I can do, you don't have that in you. You've lost Michael, you've lost already because your self doubt will destroy you, you're not strong enough to beat it. I had the drive to get over my self doubt and step on up and I did it, because I'm mentally fucking stronger then you, but your little bitch fest, woe is me bullshit shows that you're not even close to being mentally ready for me. I didn't sit there and go buy some eyeliner, listen to music to cut your wrists by. I laid in that hospital bed and I told myself there's only one man that can beat Michael Harris and that was J2H, not a guy feeling sorry for himself, a guy with more confidence then anything else and he beat you. You in the same mindset, you ran to your fucking wardrobe looking for the darkest clothes you had.... Yeah, you're not right in the head to beat me.
He tapped the side of his head as if to prove a point.
J2H: Bro, you are coming across as a man with a midlife crisis or something.
He snorted slightly before continuing.
J2H: You might as well show up on a motorcycle or something, whatever old dudes like you do to make yourself feel young. You're coming off as a desperate old man and it's not real becoming of you.
He looked at James Jr and Melody in the distance before continuing.
J2H: I heard everything you said, I let those words burn in to me and man, if I am the be all and end all for you, then when I beat you, you should be fucking proud. Do you know how many retirement matches I've been asked to do? People seek me out to send them off in to the sunset and you're bitching about me sending you off there on Sunday? Shut the fuck up man, I've turned people down for their last match, you should be fucking proud I'm sending you on your way for yours on Sunday.
He had a serious look on his face,
J2H: Why would I do it you asked so damn much, why would I want to do it again. Well at first, it was to prove I could beat you again. It was to prove that you can't come back when you're tired of sitting at home and say I got lucky against you, and yes, you would have come back, you're old but wrestling is in the Harris blood. You can say you wouldn't until you're blue in the face but I know you would have, and by that time, I would have moved on and laughed and you would have been sitting there calling my name out for months, so I thought I'd do it, get it over with, show you I was the boss and either send you on your merry way or watch you destroy people like Bill Barnhart and Goth, but now I think my reasons have changed for getting you back, like you've helped me see the light.
He pointed towards the sun and smirked.
J2H: It only hit me while I was watching, but deep down, I wanted you to come back so I could retire you properly. Think about it, you might have felt down after losing, a lot of champions do, but they grow some balls, get over it and come back eventually, but if I got you to come back and I beat you twice on the spin, you'll never come back. Maybe it was evil genius, maybe it was me baiting a trap, offering you anything that you wanted to step back in so I could just banish you away from SCW for good. It could just be that I loved embarrassing you so fucking much when I was still hurt, I wanted to do it one more time while I'm feeling amazing.
He turned his hand over.
J2H: On the other hand, you could be right and everyone else in this division are not worth a damn and I wanted a credible opponent, you'll never know which one it was but the facts still remain that I am still walking out with this.
His hand ran across the shining gold championship.
J2H: The fact still remains that I have got you to use that sick as fuck mind of yours and I'm gonna beat you at your own game. You could have picked anything in the world, could have had my hands tied behind my back, you could have picked anything at all and I still would have beat you. Maybe I just got a kink for humiliating people.
He tilted his head in thought before looking back at the camera.
J2H: Who fucking knows, but what I do know is I'm going up two zero against you Michael, and this time, I won't call you back, I will move on and go against someone else, probably Jack Washington when he wins King For The Day and books himself against me... Yeah Jack, you're fucking see through.
He rolled his eyes.
J2H: You'll be in my rear view Michael so appreciate the fact that I'm giving you your last moments of relevance in this business, I'm giving you your last meaningful contribution to the wrestling business. This is something you're gonna be remembered for, one of the greatest main events of all time and put out of your misery by me once and for all. The wrestling world will rejoice as we say goodbye to Michael Harris. I've proved you're my little puppet that I can command, I got you back just by pulling the right strings, and I'm gonna pull the right strings to send you back away. Dance for me puppet, dance your ass down to the ring, dance around the cage like some cheap whore because just like that cheap whore dancing in the cage, your night will also end with you on your back and looking at the lights, wanting everything to end quickly.
He might have looked serious on the outside but couldn't help but smile on the inside from that very impromptu cheap whore line.
J2H: And that's real talk bitch!
J2H finished just in time as he was quickly joined by his family as the camera faded to black.
